MOWER FUN THAN A PICNIC That's what Jerome and Mary Weiss of Cleveland, Ohio, say
about the remote-control lawn mower they demonstrate to handirapped friends. Crippled by polio
since babyhood, the Weisses actually don't even need the mower, as they can afford to hire a gar
dener. But they use the "magic" mower to boost the morale and-general interest of other handi
capped persons. "1 don't even own the mower. 1 borrowed It,' Weiss confesses.
.HOT ROD COI.'ltTKSY
DKS MOINES (UP) Youm;
"hot rod" drivers are trying to
build up a reputation for courtesy
here. After a teenager pushed
couple's stalled car, lie handed
them a card reading: "Dedicated
to safely. You have received assis
tance through the courtesy of Hip I
Knights of the Road Hot Rod
Club."
The bakers of Bruges, Belgu.un,
piOpare loaves each day for the
town swans. City firemen pedal
round and feed the birds, wide
hem the city's mark on their
beaks.

SUPREME "
Barn in England
By ROBERT ML'SEL

JORDANS. England (UP)
There is a shabby, old bam In
this little settlement of the Society
of Friends, the Quakers, that is
either one of the most important
relics or American history or just
a shabby, old bam.
Practically everybody agrees
that the framework of the barn
was made from the timbers of a
ship named "Mayflower" sold for
alvaee to farmer William Russell
in 1G28.
But was it THE Mayflower, the
one that took the Pilgrims to
Massachusetts in 1620? I wish I
knew. All I can say after checking
around is that some people think
it is, but more think It isn't.
The story begins when Farmer
Russell bought the ship hulk for
what was then the equivalent of
about 500. He upended it on his
property in Ihis backwater of Lon
don and it made a very service
able barn indeed.
Property Sold
Some 30 years later he sold all
his property to the friends. It was
in his original farmhouse that Will
iam Penn and other Quakers were
arrested in 1670 and sent to prison
even though they argued they were
only worshipping as conscience
dictated.
As time went by the barn be
came a community center for the
Friends, some of whom began to
wonder whether the similarity of
name might be more than coinci
dental. One of these was Dr.
James Rendel Harris, curator of
manuscripts of the John Rylunds

Bradford, governor of the Plym

Tongue In tlieek
Dr. Harris convinced a lot o'
people, but some of his old asso
ciates in in the Quakers wonder
whether he was writing with
tongue in cheek.
"He was a great leg-puller," said
Stephen Thorne, recording clerk
of the Quakers.

that the old barn was the origins!;

although the main timbers appear
to be ship's timbers, there is no

A Replica Planned
Project Mayflower, which plans
to sail a replica of the Mayflower
to the United States next yeur hs
a gesture of Anglo-American unity,
is building its craft from plans by
naval architect William A. Baker
of Hingham, Mass. The model of
the Mayflower from the Boston
State House, has been sent here
so the builders can duplicate it.

Why not measure the old bam if
an exact replica is wanted?

"We don't regard the barn as
the original Mayflower," said
Michael Mordaunt-Smith, one of
the officials of the project.
So the weight of expert evidence
is against the barn.
But here's something to think
ibout:
Johanna Jones, widow of Christ
jpher Jones, master of the Pil
grims' Mayflower, received per
mission to sell the ship as sal
vage in 1621. Four years later a
"Mayflower" became a barn in
Buckinghamshire.
Were they the same?
