6 NEW RADIO SYSTEM. 7 BRING PUT 10 USE High School Students Hear, Daily News Broadcasts in i Classrooms Students in Bismarck high school | re being given the opportunity to) keep posted on current happenings | in the world through the medium of | ‘the radio. Every morning at 9 o'clock the press radio news of the National Broad-| casting company is brought to the) students through loud speakers in| each class room of the new $400,000 building, This is the only school building in the northwest with this modern equipment. As the year pro- gresses greater use will be made of the educational features of the radio, according to Principal C. W. Leifur. The radio equipment is a two-way} system. The loud speaker in each room acts as a microphone, making it possible to pick up ordinary con- versation in the class room. An- nouncements can be broadcast from; the principal's office to any part of| the building. ‘The equipment contains two sepa- rate radios which permits the pre- senting of two different programs at the same time. @ separate unit and the programs can be switched to any room or group of | Tooms, or to all of the rooms. The radio equipment is a product of the Radio Corporation of America and was installed by the technical staff of the Meyer Broadcasting com- pany under the direction of John Henlein. A small room adjacent to the principal’s office was especially designed to house this equipment, Legionnaires Vote Constitution Change Approval of two suggested changes to the constitution of Lloyd Spetz post, American Legion, was voted at the regular meeting of the veterans’ organization Friday night in the ‘World War Memorial building. One of the changes provides for the election of officers at the last meet- ing in June instead of the second meeting in September. Newly-elected Officers will assume their duties at the first meeting in September instead of the first meeting in October. The other change related to de- tails of handling post finances. Following the meeting, which was ‘held early in order to permit Legion- naires to attend the Legion-sponsored boxing card, an oyster stew supper ‘was served. | Weather Report | WEATHER FORECAST For Bismarck and vicinity: Partly cloudy tonight and Sunday; slightly warmer tonight.

Welford Board to Have Charge of Old Age Fund 1 Willson and Milhollan Work on Plan to Obtain More Sup- plementary Money | Attorney General P. O. Sathre Sat- urday set in motion first moves to for national old age pension assist- | ance. Ruling the state welfare board | | He ruled the 1935 act creating the state welfare board superceded the prior law in which disbursement of {old age pension monies was vested in! |the department of agriculture and! | labor. i Under Sathre’s ruling disbursements are to be made by the welfare board but records of expenditures must be | kept in the office of the commissioner {of agriculture and labor. Hope To Get U. S. Aid Immediately following the ruling, |E. A. Willson, secretary of the ‘state welfare board and Fraink Milhollan, ; board member, began work on a plan | by which they said they hoped to ob- i tain “sizeable amounts” of federal monies for each aged person. | Under the present system, old age} |pensioners receive only about $8 per} |year from state funds, Willson point- | ed out. Should this be set up solely | jneedy from the state, the amount coming from the federal government son explained. More Money Possible Willson said it was hoped to work out a plan by which the $8 pension, plus supplementary county aid given | the aged would be combined in a unit} sufficiently large to obtain greater! federal matching of pension funds in! the state. | Included in the proposed unit would be rent, food, clothing and similar items given the aged by the county in addition to the old age pension, Will- son said.

F. McAfee, manager of motor truck sales. “Viewed from any angle,” says this official, “the registration figures for 1935 reveal the accelerating popular- ity of International trucks. R. L. Polk’s 25 new truck figures for the first nine months of this year show 40,169 International’s compared with 23,183 for the corresponding period of 1934.

C., Nov, 23.—(?)}— A year ago a young aviator walked into a Winston-Salem newspaper office late at night, slung his hat on a chair, sat down to a type- writer and began: “Tommy Gibbons, diminutive Connecticut Yankee, dropped for the last time through the skies which were his habitat today—a failure at long last in his para- chute jumping career.” The typewriter keys clicked on as the 26-year old aviator wrote his “obituary” for the newspaper. Friday his prophecy came true. It was his 500th parachute jump. He was performing in an air circus on the edge of town. Gibbons leaped from the height of 1,800 feet. The ’chute didn’t open until he was a few feet from the ground, and Gibbons was killed. 12 Alumni Initiated Into Delta Tau Delta Grand Forks, N.

Van Zandt, national commander jot the organization, according to an- nouncement Saturday by Wesley E. Sherwin, commander of Gilbert N. Nelson Post No. 1326, Bismarck. Van Zandt will speak in the city auditorium at 9 p. m. next Saturday, stopping off here on a tour of the west. Among items in the V.F.W. pro- gram, Sherwin said, is a demand for the deportation of aliens who seek to overthrow the government of the United States by force. Taking a strong stand for peace, Sherwin said, the V.F.W. is advocat- ing @ constitutional amendment which will give this country a perma- nent neutrality policy. He said it provides for embargoes on arms and munitions to the bellig- erents; repudiation of responsibility for American investments in foreign nations and for American citizens who deliberately travel on ships open to attack by an enemy and for Amer- ican citizens who refuse to evacuate @ war zone within a reasonable time. It also would revoke the American citizenship of any man who enlisted in the armed forces of a belligerent nation and require that the armed forces of the United States be with- drawn from the territory of any na- tion involved in war with another country. Van Zandt is an experienced public speaker, having addressed thousands of audiences in all parts of the coun- try. He now is in his third successive term as national commander of the VF.W. CLASS IN DEBATING | FORMED AT SCHOOL 28 Working Outside Regular Hours Under Direction of Pearl Bryant ‘Twenty-eight students in Bismarck high school have enrolled in an ex- tra-curricular debate class which was @| organized last week under the direc- tion of"Miss Pearl Bryant, a member of the English faculty and public speaking instructor. For several years debating has been offered as a regular school subject but due to the large enrollment in the English department this year it was impossible to include it in the curriculum. The newly organized class will meet without credit three nights a week from 4 to 5 o'clock. Miss Bryant is confronted with the task of developing a debate squad from this enthusiastic but entirely in- experienced material. All of last year’s team were members of the graduating class. For the past three years Bismarck high school has rank- ed high in the North Dakota High School Debate League. In 1933 the local team reached the finals of the state contest but were eliminated by the veteran Larimore team. The fol- lowing year Bismarck won the state title, and last year reached the semi- finals. ‘The question for the State High School Debate League this year is: ? JAMES E.

Community Aid in Farm Rehabilitation 1s Sought by Wood ferred to Resettlement, Wood said, and the job is to get the remainder certified as well as to see that they are properly cared for. The long-time program of the re- settlement administration, Wood said, is to make farm families self-sup- porting where possible by helping to organize their affairs and finance their production needs. Where pos- sible, he said, work of rehabilitation will be handled on a cooperative basis. For example he pointed out that, if a group of farmers needed one or more pure-bred bulls to improve their herds, they could band themselves together into an association and the resettle- ment administration would aid them in the , May Loan to Groups Loans may be made to either in- dividuals or to groups participating in the rehabilitation effort. Among the purposes for which such loans may be made are the production and distribution of projects; the purchase of supplies and equipment; the ac- quiring of facilities to be used jointly, such as home convegjences, food con- servation and processing, general farm needs, crop harvesting and the pro- cessing, grading and storing of farm products, including cold storage and warehousing. Other items for which help may be obtained are the develop- ment of handicraft work, livestock improvement, facilities for social serv- ice “and almost any type of proposal which will add to the welfare of the from page one clients.” co D Weinstein’s ‘Nap’ May Cost $5,250 Mandan, who pleaded guilty to selling a pint of liquor to an Indian and re- ceived two years probation. “No sir, Judge—cross my heart.

This is not a situation that requires big canipaign expenditures. It requires sound ideas.” It is said that the rich are more nervous than the poor because the wide variety of choices that wealth permits them keeps them in a state of indecision.

Jervis, ex-chief of the White House secret service detail. “Strangely enough,” Jervis said of of President Coolidge, “he had the greatest sense of humor.” The secret service veteran didn’t hesitate when asked who was the greatest fisherman. It was President Franklin D. Roosevelt, also”regarded by Jervis as having “the happiest, gayest disposition of any president.’ “He is a great man, a great fellow,” bees “T’m glad I can call him 8.”” His thumb nail impressions of oth- er ft ali leodore Roosevelt: “Loved a good clean fight; a truly great American.” William Howard Taft: “Greatest traveler of all the presidents.” ‘Woodrow Wilson: “Most regal of all; he made kings look like com- moners,” Warren G.

Here’s a typical account of his behavior, at the official opening of a new branch Post office in New York: “Postmaster General. James A. Farley sang, spoke and sold stampg when the new post office branch— Station No. 82— was officially opened, . +. Three verses of the ‘Star Spangled Banner,’ words of which had been passed out at the doors, were sung. “Farley joined in the first verse in @ rather cautious baritone. Some- where in the second he dropped out. and he stood through the third with his hands behind his back. No one had thought to give him a copy of the words, “I am here to sell stamps,” Farley then announced. Proud of Department “Big Jim” is tremendously proud of the department and shows it on every occasion. One of the favorite stories told about him by his associates in the de- partment concerns the time he at- tended a big sports event. While pushing his way through the crowd a ‘woman approached him and asked Sf. he would mind mailing some letters for her. “My dear lady,” beamed “Big Jim,” “I and the whole post office depart- ment are ever happy to be of service.” Another proof of his interest in the department is that since he has been its head he never has failed to es- tablish telephonic communication with his office in Washington while out of the city. Going for the Mail Perhaps the most fun he has had in recent weeks was the day he returned to his home village in New York state for the opening of the new post office and sold the ‘first stamps. “I remember as a kid,” Farley once said, “going to the post office every morning solely for the purpose of get- ting the letters which never arrived, but actually for the purpose of see- ing the paper which carried the base- hall scores and stories of the game the preceding day. ~ “As a matter of fact I used to meet. the mai}, carrier as he passed my home and walk to the post office with him to make sure I would be there upon the arrival of the only copy.” Want Income Tax Used For Schools’ Aid Only: St. Paul, Nov. 23—()—The state American Le, drew up battle lines Saturday to oppose use of in- come tax funds for any purposes other than educational.
