Editorial-Wise Regarding Saturday^ Banner We want our readers to know that The Daily Banner staff, motor route drivers and carrier boys, did their very best Saturday to try and deliver this newspaper to you. The elements were against most of the carriers as result the heavy snowfall and drifts on the county roads and even on Greencastle streets. It was impossible for Indianapolis papers to get through to this city Saturday because of the storm and ths same situation held true in many cases locally. If you failed to get Saturday’s Banner we're mighty sorry. On the other hand, The Banner is also mighty glad if you got your paper on that day. We are proud of our carriers. In spite of their best efforts we knew that some deliveries were virtually impossible and that some of our loyal carriers would not be able to reach all their territories. We just want all you subscribers to know we tried to deliver everyplace possible, and to tell you we re sorry if you did not get your Banner. An Appeal For Caution This is a plea to our youngsters to please be careful when sliding on the city streets and sidewalks. This is also an appeal to their parents to warn them of possible danger from automobiles and trucks. We also ask drivers of motor vehicles to be on the watch for the children as they enjoy their sleds and snow disks. We know it is a lot of fun since the heavy snow but it can be most dangerous. Please be careful as no one wants to see a boy or girl hurt especially when it can be avoided. Warning To Litter Bugs Sheriff Kenneth Knauer informed us yesterday afternoon that he is receiving numerous complaints about trash being scattered on Putnam County roads. The sheriff said he wants to warn litter bugs that there is a $100 fine in case anyone is caught in the act. The officer also said that his department is going to watch for trash throwers and he stated emphatically that they will be prosecuted. So this is just a timely warning—let's keep our county highways clean as they should be.

Sheinwold On Bridge Read Partner’s Hand From Refusal to Help By Alfred Sheinwold National Men’s Team Champion Even *' championship play there is some uncertainty in delicate situat’ons, and this very uncertainty may provide the vital clue. In last year’s Bridge Olympics, Mrs. Helen Portugal. of the U. S. team, made an "unmakable” game when an opponent missed the clue.

THY 'EM THEY ARE DELICIOUS

West led the Ax of dubs to dummy’s queen, and Mrs. Portugal drew two rounds of trumps with the ace and king. When the queen failed to fall, declarer cashed the king of clubs and led a trump to the queen. West discarded her last club. East could defeat the contract only by returning the suit in which South held three cards. If East returned a diamond, West would take the ace and return the queen of diamonds to dummy’s king. South would be unable to return her hand (a trump play would be useless) and West would get the jack of diamonds as well as the ace of spades. Actually, East returned a spade instead of a diamond. West took the ace of spades and returned a spade to dummy’s king, but now South could get to her hand by ruffing a spade. She discarded two diamonds on the ace and jack of clubs, and led a diamond. West could get only one diamond trick. THE CLUE How could East tell whether to return a diamond or a spade? Was it up to West to discard her lowest spade on the third round of trumps? West could not tell, but this uncertainty was the clue. It was clear that West had started with five diamonds and three spades or with four diamonds and four spades. I f West had five diamonds she would surely discard • low diamond to discourage a diamond return. West’s failure to discard a diamond showed that West had only four diamonds, and East could then tell that a diamond return would defeat the contract. DAILY QUESTION You have opened the bidding with one heart, and partner has bid one notrump. It is up to you again, with: Spade K 10 4, Heart A K J 8, Diamond K 10 8 7, Club K Q. What do you say? Answer: Bid three no trump. Your Partner will probably have a reasonable play for this contract with most 6-point and

With equal sincerity we wish to thank Rev. Maxwell Webb, the organist, the pallbearers and the Hopkins-Walton Funeral Home for kind and understanding services rendered.

Little has been said about the city dump since the city administration helped to clean it up. A few years ago the area was thick with paper and debris which had blown about or had fallen from trucks and cars transporting the trash to the dump. Now, since the cleanup has been in effect, the area looks a hundred percent better. Just a small example of what can be done if people get down to brass tacks.

This columnist was interested in the “Buzz Bomb” monument on the square and did a bit of research on it. The exact date of the dedication of the monument still remains a mystery but from the facts gathered it appears that this is the only type of buzz bomb in the United States. It took a special act of congress to bring the bomb to this city.

There were originally two of the bombs. One of them had a cockpit for a pilot. Of course, no one ever knew a pilot who had ridden one, there was a little item of surving the explosion when the bomb hit. The bomb having the cockpit was too badly damaged for the mechanic at East Side Motors to fix, so they used the other one. The mechanic did a great job of improvising, the nose cone was missing so he used an automobile horn and a plow disk.

Did you know that a great deal of the city square burned to the ground? It happened October 28th, 1874. This columnist has not as yet looked into the back files for details, but when they are known they will be presented.

The LEAGUE LOOKS column, compiled by the Greencastle League of Women Voters, will cover the highlights of the current session of the Indiana legislature in nine weekly installments beginning in today's BANNER. Primary source of information for these installments will be the “Legislative Letter” published by the state League from information contributed by League observers attending the legislative sessions.

Meeting Held By Roachdale Club The Roachdale Town and Country Club met at the home of Mrs. Clifford Crosby. Mrs. Jo Schmidt and Mrs. Jo Ford gave a lesson on guideposts to wish discipline, also guidance and control of youngsters. There were 17 present, in- | eluding three guests and three children. Mrs. Claude Barker served a delicious cake and coffee.

This column received a letter the other day and several interesting facts were brought out. The letter quoted from “The Greencastle vote r.” "Thelma Burkhardt read through last year s reports from League observers and came out with an interesting summary. Here are the number of times a subject was mentioned at Council meeting: sewers, 13; sidewalk, 11; parking, 11; signs and marquees, 10; paving patching, 7; need to undate and replace (lost) ordinances, 6; and annexation, 5.”

work. Under good magnification one can readily see Gilroy Robert’s initials at the base of the neck. These stylized initials “GR” rt a glance apparently led some to believe that a hammer and sickle are imprinted on the coin. One can recall when the dime honoring Franklin Delano Roosevelt was first issued in 1946, rumors were circulating that the Initials “JS” on the obverse were those of Joseph Stalin. Individuals thought that some subversive force had entered the mint and secretly placed them on the coin. This was, of course, not true. The initials were those of the mint engraver, John Sinnock. Several million Kennedy Halves have been minted and distributed, however, not many can be seen in circulation. Collectors an-’ non-collectors alike, have gobbled up these pieces as momentoes leaving very few for their intended use. A word to those who have put back one of these coins. Place the coin in a protective hplder to eliminate tarnishing over a period of time. Air tight holders designed for this purpose can be purchased for just a few cents.

by Randall Collins Have you heard the rumor that our new Kennedy Half Dollar has a communist symbol on the front side of the coin ? According to Miss Eva Adams, Director of the Mint, nothing could be farther from the truth. In a recent statement she said, “No Communist symbol appears on any American coin. Wh m a new design is issued the rumors fly. At such a time, more than any other, the public gives' close scrutiny to its money and all unexplained symbols are questioned”. The Kennedy Half Dollar, first issued on March 24th, 1964, was designed by two individuals. Gilroy Roberts, former Chief Engraver of the U. S. Mint, designed the obverse and Frank Gasparro was the designer of the reverse side. It has always been customary for the designer to identify his
