Over these names in Collier's 7 nad was this heading: THE MILEAGE ROLL OF DISHONOR. _ These men voted to pay themselves inflated traveling expenses from Washington, D. C., to their respec- tive home states and return a trip which they never made. ’ It was a foul, brazen grab. You are not surprised to find Humphrey’s name there. He has often been called a mileage You are not surprised to find Lorimer’s name there. He is the man who graduated from senate by the bribery route. He is the man whom Jones ‘voted to keep in thé sénate. You must, however, be surprised to find Jones’ name in this mileage grab roll. Frankly, The Star was surprised to find it there.

CHIP IN FOR ATHLETICS e young folke In our public schools are in a fierce pre- dicament, There's no way they can buy athletic paraphernalia.

And finally the daddies who couldn't afford It kicked Then the school board sat down on the custom, saying there would be no more assessments.
