Selli ® Newsfea! From humble newsboy to You can fill in that blank with almost any position you like. No matter what the choice, you'll find some- where the job has been held by a man who once hawked newspapers on the busy streets of America. Today has been designated as “Newspaperboy Day” to honor the “little merchants” now getting their first taste of business life. If | the day were also commemorating famous persons who used their ex- perience selling newspapers as a stepping stone for success, thou- sands of prominent personalities would doff their hats. Dwight D. Eisenhower, President of the United States, once served a home delivery route in Abilene, Kan. Former President Herbert Hoover supported himself when he was 15 by working as a carrier salesman and office boy. Gov. Earl Warren of California is a former newspaper boy, as was John S, Fine of Pennsylvania and| Harold &. Stassen, former gover- nor of Minnesota. , The entertainment world is filled with examples of celebrities who | made their first step up the ladder | of success selling newspapers. Comedian Bob Hope tells this story from his days as a news- boy in Cleveland, Ohio. “One of my regular customers was John 1. P-~-"pller, One night I couldn’t make change f him and told him. wust him un- til the next night. His reply was: *Young man, let me tell you some- thing. Never give credit when you gan get cash. Remember that. You, are in business and should ‘ave. change’.” “Considering the source,” Hope says, “that should be sound ad- vice.” He and Rockefeller later Jecame good friends. It_has come to be traditional that American boys make pocket mon- xy, clothes money, or help pay heir way through college by sell- ‘ng newspapers, It is a job that is vwculiarly suited to teenage boys, aking them outdoors, giving them vork suited to their physical ca- vacities, affording them experience n handling money. An integral part of the news- yaper business, these boys are res- vonsible for getting the papers to he public. They make most of the yersonal contacts between news- vaper and reader, and upon their houlders falls the responsibility or creating good newspaper - cus- omer relations. The public, in turn, affords these young merchants a chance to get n early taste of business life. They ind their customers enjoy a uni- ‘ue relationship of mutual service snd dependence.

Saturday, October 2, 1956 “Busy Boys Are Better Boys” like so many slogans, requires de- finition. Busy doing what? Every boy is busy doing something, good or bad, in his leisure time before and after school hours. The point is — is he busy doing something worthwhile? Is he learn- ing some of the basic facts of life |that will serve him well as he grows older? All Mothers and fathers want | their son to “get ahead” — to get | a full measure of Progress an piness out of his adult life Intellectual training and ability alone are not enough to accom-| plish these objectives. The world is filled with educated derelicts. In every practical walk of life, | the essential ingredient for success | and happiness is the ability to deal | with other people and understand them. And-the art of getting along with people, like most useful arts, is best learned by doing. Selid Background The newspaperboy — the boy who works his way through high | school — is more apt to have this | ability instinctively than others who did not have the advantage of this background. It is gratifying indeed to note that the foundation value of part- time work training for boys is now Tecognized by thoughtful and rea- listic educators, public officials and Parents. In all America there is no better value in work training than the lessons of promptness,- service, de- | pendability, courtesy, thrift, obli- gation, selling and human rela- id hap-| bernick, Paul Hi | Richard Curry, John Boys Are Better Boys |day-out — as a newspaper carrier boy. | Our Paper Boys The Key West Citizen has 49 car- rier boys participating in this valk juable work training every day | These boys who work under the direction of Raiford Roberts, circu- lation manager, are William Me- Ewen, Gary Maris, Johnny Wil. liams, John D.

OUTBOARD ROUNDUP By DAVID NASON Weather permitting, the West Outboard Club will hold r: in Garrison Bight Sunday after- noon. This is one of the yearly Point races and should create quite a battle among the top point driv- ers. Miller, Nason and Hanson are closely bunched for points in the “B” Hydro class, with Miller top- ping the field. In this same class, there is Jack Knowles, who was a late starter this year, but is im- proving his speed at every meet. Also Cecil Cates, Jr. who has been having a lot of racing luck, all K bad, but still has plenty of fight | in him on the race course Another late starter in the “B” Hyrdros, is Bascom Grooms. He has finally brought his outfit up to top shape and was clocked at 54 miles per last Sunday off the Club House pier. He will be the boy to watch come Sunday. In the “B” Runabout class, Jer- ry Schnaedelbach holds a nice lead in points but the competition has been closing in on him in the last couple of races. John MckKillip, Charles Moody, David Nason, Joe Alonzo and Waldo Collins are all out to bring him down a notch or two. I predict that his berth will not be an easy one from here on out. In Sunday’s Free-for-All the Run- about boys have promised the Hy- dros a good rough course. They can do it. Man, they sure can rough up a race course. Raymond Maloney has finally come out of hiding and is running his 50 horsepowered Hydro in the Free- for-All. Buddy Johnson will also be sporting a 50-hp Johnson. (Use Of Old Lanza Dises ‘Causes Hassle HOLLYWOOD (#—Mario Lanza’s voice - from debut remained the talk of the town today as the Columbia Broad casting System confessed that old records were used on his first show. | The CBS statement, issued by J. L. Van Volkenburg, president of CBS-TV, verified The Associated Press report that two-year old rec- jold records had to be used because Lanza’s quick reducing ; had impaired his voice, Van Volkenburg said pre-record- ing had been agreed on in ad- |vance and a session was set for last Monday, but “‘just prior to this Mr. Lanza told us his physi- |cian had advised him it would be {impossible for him to undertake | this taping session and to parti- | cipate in the production to the ex- | tent we had originally planned. | “In view of this we eliminated |a complicated finale, and a com- |edy sketch which featured Lanza We also decided that due to Mr. Lanza’s_ physical condition we would have to use already existing records instead of newly pre-re- corded ones. The decision was the sole responsibility of CBS Televi- sion.”” Lanza and CBS West Coast Vice President Harry Ackerman earlier | show with Lanza and Betty Grable. | jhad maintained the recordings - the - past television j Final Judgment Against Hamlin Another order for a final judg- ment in a debt suit against Justice of the Peace Roy Hamlin was sign- ed Friday by Circuit Court Judge | Aquilino Lopéz, Jr. The suit for debt was begun Sept. 3 by Bill Neblett as attor. ney for the West Publishing Co. | of Minnesota. The bill of compl |said Hamlin owed the publishing | company $448.15 for law books and that Hamlin “has not paid the same or any part thereof.” The final judgment was $448.15 plus $15.30 in costs.

Doherty for $159.49 worth of paint Hamlin bought and never paid for, according to the bill of complaint. Hamlin also was order- in costs.

Margiotti said last night that he would ask Alle- | gheny County Court Monday to dis- miss the indictments against In- surance Commissioner Artemas T, ; Leslie and Frederick P, Hare, ad- | ministrative assistant to Gov.
