BRAND COMPANY, FRANKFORT. KY. Job's Daughters' Listing In Drill Points Explained What happened to Ros'eburg's Job's Daughters' drill team in Saturday afternoon's state conven tion competition? This has been asked by many visiting delegates and local people have wondered why no recognition was jlveo this team. A check with the three judges by Mrs. A. J. Ellison, guardian of Bethel No. 8, reveals that the Roseburg team actually polled a total of 490 points, third highest of any entry. , The Roseburg team was entered in t'.ie novelty grouping, but the judges felt it should have been under exhibition grouping, which included drill formations and a marching step. Its drill was a folk dance, and the Bethel felt that dance steps would have eliminated them from the exhibition class. The other three teams in the novelty grouping received 486 2-3, 486 and 485 points, respectively. In total points, Portland Bethel No. 1, Class A exhibition, had 498 points, and Portland Bethel No. 24, Class B novelty, had 493 points with Roseburg Class A third with 490. Through a misundersanding, said Mrs. Ellison, the judges did not know the audience was not given their entire report, following the contest Saturday afternoon. It was merely announced that the Roseburg team was not considered in the competition. The judges expressed the opin ion that the Roseburg team mem bers should receive highest praise and commendation for their per formance, even though they could not take the blue ribbon in the group in which they were entered. Senator Morse Flays Steel Firms, Others (Continued from Page One) government," he went on, "but how about these lavish expense accounts, their entertainment ac counts, their hotel and lobby ac counts?" By claiming such expenses as costs deductible from taxable In come. Morse declared, American business is conducting a ."lavish, unwarranted expenditure of the taxpayer's money" and "they" are now "working for a federal sales tax to put the burden of all this on the common people of Amer ica." President Truman meanwhile stuck to his uns in his seizure of the steel industry despite a House member s proposal to Im peach him, and other attacks from Congress. A powerful senate drive to force him to cancel the seizure order fell just short of the two thirds majority vote It required Tuesday. But Its Republican backers led by Sen. Knowland of California redoubled their cries of "dictator" and cast about for other devices. Actually 47 senators, 11 of them Democrats, voted for the move. and only 29 voted against it. Not a Republican voted "." A switch of four votes would have provided the two thirds margin needed to suspend Senate rules and -permit action on Knowland's proposal to forbid the use of any federal funds in the seizure. The Senate already had voted Monday, 44 to 31, to ban- the use of any money in a specific approp riation bill to carry out the order, but its backers said this was only a gesture.

Chehalis turned jlown a daylight time proposal. . , Other Jumbles Noted ' ' 1 In Eastern Washington, Richland was on fast time last year. This year there was a tie vote and the council decided to stay on standard time. -; Among the jumbles: At Shelton, Wash., the Rayonier plant workers voted lor standard time so the plant will follow that vote. But the com pany is going to put its adminis trative office there on daylight time. Oregon's Malheur County was spared the necessity of violating state law this year. Last year the county defied the governor's pro clamation of daylight saving time and clung to standard.
