Continuing his of the motorist, Kirkman said: for the rew Spring effort “Chilaren, unlike flow- ers, don’t always stay put, so that is why the motorist can expect—and nearly always get—the unexpected from our children.” Pretty soon now school will be out for the Sum- mer, and extra tions should be taken to safe ‘d the children who will be darting unexpectedly behind “almost everything” and right into the path of your auto, Kirkman declared. Here are a few tips the motorist can well and profitably heed: 1.—Be on the alert in zones where children are expected to be at play. 2—Be a two. your own vehicle is going while | out for the kids riding bicycles, 3.—Give the kids a “brake” and by- driver and watch where ig a sharp eye jes or skating. — temptation to honk your horn.

TODAY'S STOCK MARKET NEW YORK (#—The stock mar- ket was mixed in early dealings today, with most changes either way in small fractions. Volume was light. Brokers said traders were awaiting action on the excess profits tax in Washington and hop- ing for a solution in Korea. Most groups presented an irre- gular appearance, including the steels, motors, distillers, utilities, and rails. Oils were mostly lower while small gains predominated in the chemical section. Some specialities were active. St. Regis Paper rose % to 21% and U, S. Leather was up % to 14%. Both have oil interests. Small losses were shown by U. S. Steel, Chrysler, Consolidated Edison, Anaconda, Westinghouse, Baltimore & Dhio, Southern Pacific and Sinclair. Higher were Bethle- hem, General Motors, National Dis- tillers, Commonweaith Edison, Ke- nnecott, American Cyanamid, New York Central and Eastern Air Lines.

And today, an official of the American Legion denied that lewd films, allegedly shown at the par- ties were borrowed from them. Vance Stirrup, former Command- er of Arthur Sawyer Post 28, said that the “statement is inaccurate -- we don’t keep a supply of them here.” He added that the Post Com- mander will undoubtedly write to Pearson in protest. Mayor Harvey said that Pearson was slated to call him and tell him where he obtained his infor- mation, but he had not heard from the columnist. Pearson has been the defendant in numerous suits. At least three Navy men have been convicted for the parts they Played in the smoker on charges ranging from sodomy to conduct of a nature to bring discredit to} the armed forces.

Others to be tried in Charleston include Seaman Vintor M. Cram- er, and Boatswains Mate Raymond R. Robinson. Both have been charged with conspiracy. The Na- vy has not revealed when these men went to trial -- or if they have already been tried. Airman Robert W. Spangenberg of the Naval Air Station, received the stiffest penaity when he was sent to prison for a year and given a bad conduct discharge from the Navy.
