Last Modern Spot On Map--Still Without Automobiles

By FRED SPARKS, “Times Foreign Correspondent { VENICE, Italy, Apr. 6—Sick of dodging traffic? Fed up|

supporter, gondola or ferry. Venice is a jigsaw puzzle ol 1119 tiny’ tight islands, sluiced by | 160 canals, linked by 400 bridges. The spans hump up like angry cats’ backs, permitting water. {taxis and such to slip below with. out ‘scalping the gondolier: Even the horse, who, since time

{cluding the stage of Radio City | Music Hall, has never hoofed | through Venice. Simply isn't | room for a midgets carriage in {the airshaft- sized streets. There isn’t enough free space i for a new fruitstand in this town which has outgrown its originai |dry land. Stores built on bridges ike the ancient Ponte di Rialto |~do a daily bargain-sale-rush business.

Oral Pleas Heard On Sheriff Term

Supreme Court Gets Kirkpatrick's Case

The Indiana Supreme Court to‘day heard oral arguments dn the fquestion’ ‘of ‘whether & four: vear [term for sheriffs means two years jor six years. The case -is an{ appeal from {Hancock County {The lower court held the four{year term amendment to the con-

stitution: adopted in-1948 means -

what it says—that all sheriffs be elected in 1950 and each four years after that. Files Appeal Sheriff Edwin L. Kirkpatrick who contended ‘the arhiendment gave him a free ride until 1954 appealed. Today's argument boiled down !into three categories, Attorney Walter Myers Ir arguing for Sheriff Kirkpatrick contended all sheriffs should have lat least the four years provided by the new constitutional amendment and as many more as were necessary to bring them up for | re-election in 1954. Should the court adopt this view, it would end Marion Coun{ty's spectacular primary election battle for sheriff nomination. Sheriff Cuningham simply ‘would | serve until Dec, 31, 1954. Takes Middie Course Atty. Gen. J. Emmett McManamon held with the Hancock County Court. Attorney: George: B. Davis, Greenfield, representing the Han- | cock County election board, took a middle course.

He agreed that sheriffs elected 'in-1948 and who started in office ‘Jan, 1, 1949, should face the

voters again this year. For the 11 incumbent sheriffs who were elected in 1948, but did not take office until Jan. 1, 1950, Mr. Davis contended there should be no new election this year Under his argument, a six-year hold-over would be impossible, but the 11 sheriffs in this unusual situation would serve five cyears---before- facing ~another election.

Club to | to Hear Pastor The Rev. Marcus Johnson, pastor of the First Congregational Church, will speak in the luncheon meeting of the Optimist Club at 12:15 p. m. tomorrow in the Hote!

“perfect” score in bowling,

He rang the bell with a perfect “300”

IK When a bowler rolls his ball the twelfth time, after eleven

successful strikes, he rolls it under a lot of pressure. Be-

cause if that twelfth roll produces a strike, too, he has achieved a

wip

As any bowler can tell you, perfect “300” games are as rare as rare can be. Sure, they happen once in awhile, but bowlers measure ability by “averages,” a handy and excellent guide to * - how one bowler stacks up with another. Just as bowlers work for a high average, so Gas Utility em. ployees work for a good. average on service calls. Just as a per- us fect 300 game is beyond the reach of most Bowlers, so a perfect day, without any service calls at all, is beyond the. reach of the Gas Utility s service department. With gas service covering an area of about 400 square miles and d reaching £20,000 of you gas users, calls.for help and assidy hr ance are to be expected: some “pilot lights will £0 out once in rte awhile and appliances will need adjusting or something. Gas Utility service people don't get discouraged because service requests keep coming in, any more than a bowler gets discouraged

when he misses a score of 300. And just like bowlers, Gas Utility
