School Groups Give Program Delightful Concert Heard At Central By IIARMER ROOT Central high schools music 1 department presented one of the finest Christmas programs heard in many a season. The program was unique in that it was a complete vocal program. The choir, swing choir and the mixed chorus joined their ial-; ents to produce a most enjoya-. ble evening for the appreciatia-tive audience in attendance. Under the capable direction of Al-; vin Mikleson the students presented many selections, from the to modern swing chorals.

The program opened with the popular Twas the Night Before Christmas. Russell Pierce tenor, and Robert Thoeny, bass, were featured soloists. The music accompanied a delightful dance drama which was both beautiful and enchanting. Santa Claus as usual stole the show with his pipe and dimples, to say nothing of the pillow. Or- chesis, a new group at Central, was responsible for this drama.

It is to be highly congratulated. The swing choir presented three popular Christmas pieces, Winter Wonderland, My Two Front Teeth and Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. My Two Front Teeth, a delightful arrangement, gave the audience a good laugh. Selections from Handels Messiah followed, presenting a young lyric soprano, Leah Kupferschmid, as soloist. This young voice is one to be watched.

She sings with confidence and good taste. Her rendition of There Were Shepherds was beautifully done. The Song of Christmas ar ranged by Ringwald again presented the swing choir. Soloists Damaris soprano, Shirley Fontish, alto, Karl Gillmeis-ter, tenor, and Thomas Roach, bass, were featured. This was an interesting choral adaptation of the Christmas story.

A Christmas Choralogue by Olds presenting the choir was the highlight of the evening. This lovely number with tableau was a work of art. The ethereal, celestial tableau with Christmas tree effects on each side of the stage, the use of black light and the gorgeous colors created in the costuming was something-long to be remembered. Jerry Moe, tenor, and Frederick Jer- ome, narrator, make the presentation complete. Much credit for the success of the evening must go to Mary Jan Roelig, who created the tableaus, Betty McDowell, director of Orchesis, and Doris Gross-nick, artist.

Relatives Open Home To Youth DETROIT (A5) Jimmy Harris, the boy that nobody wanted, is going to get a new home Christmas. It will be with an aunt and un-; cle, James Hardy, 27, and his wife, Florence. And they are making it clear that it isnt really true that nobody wanted 10-year-old Jimmy. The smiling, friendly-faced youngster won a citys heart a few days ago when his stepmother, Mrs. Irene Harris, told the Wayne county prosecutors office she couldnt manage to care for him any longer.

A newspaper printed the story. Jimmys own mother is dead and bis father deserted his family. Mrs. Harris said she had lost her job and had a baby of her own to support. She also said the boys relatives could not take care of him.

But she had forgotten the Hardys. They saw the newspaper pic- ture of Jimmy and began plans to open their home to him and adopt him legally. The Hardys have been married nine years and have no children. Baraboo School Hit By Fire; Students Safe U- BARABOO, Wis. (P) Flames enveloped the first ward school, a landmark here, shortly before noon Monday.

About 160 pupils marched to safety. Fire Chief Richard Rommel- fanger said the roof of the two I story building collapsed at 1 p. m. and added that it did not seem likely any of the building could be saved. The blaze was noticed at 11:50 a.

It had been called early to make up for the morning recess cancelled ecause of cold Out' Effort Region Joins I I si; vt 41 G's On Hungnam Beachhead Eat Their Christmas Dinner Early HUNGNAM BEACHHEAD, Northeast Korea Seventh division GIs ate their Christmas turkey Sunday. The situation on this tiny beachhead was too chaotic to chance waiting for the right day. This was their premature Christmas; Instead of ringing church bells, naval shells screamed overhead. Burning buildings were their Yule log.

Presents yielded space to more urgent cargo on incoming ships and planes. And in the nearby snow-mantled Chinese Communists crouched with rifles cradled in arms waiting to attack this battered bit of earth that knows neither peace nor good will in the 1950 Christmas season. Philadelphia Police Hunt 'Mad Sniper' PHILADELPHIA (iP) Scores of police Monday hunted a mysterious mad sniper who has killed one person and wounded six others in the citys residential Oak Lane section in the last six weeks. The manhunt began Saturday night after a 28-year-old housewife was slain by a gunman police believed responsible for six other shootings. Theres no doubt a maniac is on the loose, said one police officer.

Only a madman could have committed these acts. Mrs. Claire Cohen, wife of a junior high school teacher and mother of two small children, was killed by a bullet fired through closed Venetian blinds of a kitchen while she was washing dishes. Police said the killer apparently fired from a terrace across the street from the house since the bullet entered the window, 12 feet above the ground, on a level plane. Sunday night, th dimly lighted Oak Lane area on the northwestern edge of the city, was a deserted region.

Residents of the modest, middle-class neighborhood, stayed inside while 130 policemen and 50 auxiliaries patrolled the streets. At least one policeman was assigned to each block of the area. Few persons answered knocks on the door or ringing of the doorbell. Mayor Bernard Samuel directed Samuel Rosenberg, public safety director, to use every fa cility at your command to track down the killer. Police- disclosed that shortly before Mrs.

Cohen was shot Sat urday night, a 17-year-old youth, John Diener, was fired on by a mysterious assailant. Diener, waiting for a bus with a companion, Rudolph Heller, 18, felt something whip through the rear of his topcoat. An examination showed a bullet had ripped through the back of the coat. The two youths told police they saw a dark coupe speed away in the direction of the house where Mrs. Cohen was shot.

Farmer''Hit By Tree ETTRICK, Wis. (Special) Benhard Redsten, 56, French Creek farmer, fractured his right leg in two places when a tree fell on him while he was cutting wood Thursday. Of Rail Issues By HAROLD W. WARD WASHINGTON (JF) Hope rose Monday for an early settlement of the long wage and hour dispute between the nations railroads and four operating unions. The White House pressed them to come to terms.

The pace of negotiations was stepped up even as the effects of a strike by one group involved Some 10,000 yardsmen walked off their jobs for three days last week, tying up freight and Christmas mail in key rail terminals, but the jam was clearing rapidly. Presidential Assistant John'R. Steelman kept the negotiators in session until 1:45 a. m. CST) and reported some progress.

The union and management representatives faced each other across the bargaining table for the first time since August, when the roads were seized by the government to avert a strike. Steelman arranged another session for Monday afternoon. Too Sick To Work The yardmen for the most part went back to work, although about 100 notified three railroads in Toledo they were too sick to report. One union official said their action constituted a wildcat strike. Members of the same Brotherhood of Railroad Yardmen had returned to work in other cities under pressure from President Truman, federal courts and union officials.

Thirty-one locals and 45 officers of the brotherhood were summoned to a federal court hearing in Chicago Monday to show why the union should not be held in contempt of court. The government claims the union showed contempt by ignoring court orders to end the strike. The post office department threw 12,000 additional workers into the fight to break the' mail jam. It said it hopes all Yule packages will be delivered in time despite what appears to be the biggest flow of holiday mail in history. Settlement of the drawn-out rail wage dispute depended on how the unions and railroads reacted to these contract proposals reported to be under discussion, many features of which already have been rejected by the unions: What They Want Yard service workers 23 cents an hour increase retroactive to Oct.

1, with a cost of living allowance of one cent for each point rise in the governments price index, and with a three-year contract. Yard workers now average $1.58 an hour, the union says. The trainmen and conductors want a 31-cent hourly boost, or 48 hours pay for a 40 hour week for the yardmen. Road service workers a 10-cent hourly increase in base pay, which the carriers say would be the equivalent of at least three times that because the employes on the trains often are paid for the length of run, rather than time actually spent on the job. The same three-year contract, with a cost of living allowance, would be included in this reported proposal.

The unions and railroads differ sharply on what their earnings average. Engineers want a 20 per cent flat increase, plus an allowance of 25 cents an hour on runs taking them away from home terminals more than four hours. Firemen and enginemen, who want the same 48-for-40 pay in the yards, also are asking for a flat 35-cent hourly increase across-the-board for their 125,000 members. Auto-Lite Schedules Pay Scale Meetings SYRACUSE, N. Y.

(A3) The Electric Auto-Lite makers of automotive electrical equipment, said Saturday it is scheduling in its 28 plants to discuss a company proposal for a long-term, escalator-type wage agreement. One of the plants is at La Crosse, Wis. Royce G. Martin, corporation president, said about 25,000 production workers represented by the CIO United Automobile Workers, will be affected. Martin said the proposal Is modeled after similar agreements recently concluded in the automotive and other industries.

This is an attempt to stabilize wages in the face of current conditions, while at the same time taking into consideration the increased cost of living which affected us all, his statement said. Woman Fractures Hip At 5:06 p. m. Sunday the police ambulance took Mrs. William Riegger, 82, 732 North 10th street, to a local hospital after she suffered a broken hip in a fall in her home.

Stuart Wright, Madison, representing the association, said that to increase the state tax from four to five cents per gallon would be placing an unfair burden on the automobile driver. F. N. MacMillin? of the League of Wisconsin Municipalities, proposed the increase to provide revenue required to finance an adequate street and highway program. The league recently voted in favor of such an increase.

Assemblyman Hugh Harper (R-Lancaster) a member of the, committee, said that local property taxes were being pushed up now to provide roads. He said the automobile owner should pay a fair share of these roads. MacMillin also uiged the committee to back legislation for a uniform code of weight limits to provide for adequate enforcement of laws to eliminate present practices of repeated willful load violations. The legislative council recommended for passage Monday a bill that would appropriate to the department of public welfare to permit it to close Camp Hayward in Sawyer county and place patients there in other institutions and homes. John W.

Tramburg, director of the department, said that there were about 25 or 30 bedridden patients at the camp and it was thought advisable to shift them to other place. The appripriation is needed, he said, to provide for their care elsewhere. The council had reports from many committees to go over as it met for a three-day session. They included those of the education, taxation, highway, judiciary and welfare committees. It will meet again Jan.

8 and 9 to wind up its recommendations to the 1951 legislature which convenes Jan. 10.

The measure now goes to the senate. It would make the insurance retroactive to June 27 to cover those who have died in the Korean war.

The legislation also is phrased eo that the 33 Pennsylvania national guardsmen killed in a train wreck in Ohio Sept. 11 while en route to their training camp would be considered as insured. Their survivors would receive the insurance benefits. The house also approved unanimously and sent to the White House a bill providing vocational rehabilitation for veterans disabled in the Korean war. Such rehabilitation already is provided for veterans of the last World wan The house also passed without dissent a measure to set up a $1,000,000,000 war damage corporation to insure private property for bombs or other war damage.

The proposed free insurance for all servicemen would supplant the present national service life insurance (NSLI) system under which servicemen elect coverage and pay premiums. The proposal would provide payments to survivors of servicemen at the rate of $92 a month over a 10-year period. The insurance would end for ail but disabled servicemen 90 days after their discharge. Under the bill, members of the armed forces covered by NSLI policies coud continue them and get the free pobcies too. NSLI is issued as low cost, term insurance.

It is convertible to any one of six permanent type policies, each of which is a contract with the government. These contracts would not be affected in any way by the proposed free insurance.

One-Day Service SyasaiEi jSS 209 -215 State St. OFFICE and SPORTING GOODS DEPARTMENTS DIAL 2-3057 SERVICE DEPARTMENT DIAL 2-2634 Constant Flow Of Food Sent CHICAGO (NEA) A big gray freighter wallows east across the Atlantic; another sails west across the Pacific. They are part of a fleet that carries a cargo of life and hope for hungry war victims from the heart of America and from Americans who have joined in the Christian Rural Overseas Program. CROP was organized to collect agricultural commodities from Catholic and Protestant American farmers.

The collecting und distributing are done under church auspices, and the organi-ization takes up where the Marshall plan leaves off. It permits those too poor to buy food and clothing under the Marshall plan to fill their needs at no cost at all. CROP might also be called a partial successor to UNRRA. It makes no attempts' at rehabilitation, merely acting as an emergency relief body. Its all free.

Every single egg and grain of wheat aboard the mercy ships is an outright neighborly gift from American farmers. Each year members of CROP allocate part of their land and livestock to the organization. The grain that is harvested, the processed eggs and milk, all are collected by CROP, with the government bearing part of the transportation expense, and shipped overseas. Since 1947, more than 3,500 carloads of food and material for clothing have gone overseas for distribution without regard for race, creed or color. CROPS democratic character won it the 1950 award of merit from the National Conference of Christians and Jews.

Nor does CROP draw the line at political curtains. Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary and China have all been recognized as places where Americans can make friends by actively practicing Christian charity. A gnarled old woman in the Bavarian forest can tell you what CROP means to her. She is starting life all over at 76, one of a family of nine living in one room of a bleak factory converted to residential use. Or you can hear the same song of gratitude from kids with pipe-stem limbs on the IndiaTPakistan border.

To almost every country of the world. Friend Ships are carrying a hold full of good will and good cheer when they are most needed. Kickoff for the 1950 CROP program, which has as its goal 1,350 carloads, was the departure from Chicago of the Oranje Lines S.S. Prins Mauritz on the fifth birthday of the United Nations with 60 carloads garnered from 18 states, from New York to Wyoming and from North Dakota to Texas. Orphan Begins First Day As An American MILWAUKEE (A5) A seven-year-old war orphan from Germany began her first day as an American girl Monday.

Marie Louise Heimhardt arrived in Milwaukee sound asleep in an air liner from the East Sunday night. She flew from Hamburg Saturday. Waiting at the airport were Mr. and Mrs. Henry Heimhardt, who have adopted her.

The child is said to be the first of the thousands of German war orphans to be admitted to this country under the presidential act of last June 15. Maries mother died in an air raid when the child was 11 months old. Three months later her father was killed in battle. Her aunt married Heimhardt, a Milwaukee mechanical engineer, when he was visiting his native Germany in 1948. After Marie was awakened at the airport she spoke an English phrase she had just learned: Merry Christmas." Manufacturers Meet Executive committee of th Chamber of Commerce- manufacturers committee will meet at the New Villa at 6:30 p.

Richard Ewert of Welch Valley, probably saved her life and. that of her parents and younger brother Saturday night. About 6 p. all members of the family became groggy and sleepy and finally Mrs. Ewert was overcome on the davenport, apparently from the effects of gas fumes.

When this happened, Linda Lou, also partly affected by the fumes, went to the nearby home of her grandparents, the Robert Ewerts, and informed them, Mama got hurt on the davenport. The childs aunt, Mrs. Cecil Green, who lives with her parents, went to the Richard Ewert home and found Mrs. Ewert unconscious, her brother dazed and their child, Gary Lee, two, also affected. She telephoned the Allan Kirk home for aid and summoned Ervin Edwards, Sparta policeman, who arrived with a resuscitator.

Mrs. Ewert, who partially recovered, twice, collapsed a third time and Edwards revived her. Later it was learned that Ewert had purchased an oil heater in La Crosse Saturday and had replaced a wood heater in his home about 4:30 p. m. The first drowsiness was noticed about 6 p.

m. Reason for the gas fume escaping was not immediately determined. The Ewerts live in basement quarters of a home they are building on his fathers farm. They spent Saturday night and Sunday at the home of the father. Shirley Temple Marries Again DE MONTE, Calif.

(Actress Shirley Temple and Charles Black, son of a prominent San Francisco family, are elusive honeymooners.
