Liberty Community Hall Admission: Adults 50c Children 25c Tickets may be obtained at Clancy's Food Market 1073 South Commercial Who Was He? Otho Brin, inventor, or Otho Miller, murderer?

The mayor stated that nation al guard state officers recently visited here and reported that Lebanon is considered for an expenditure of approximately $125,000 for an armory, if the appropriation is voted. The city could add to the building any money of its own that it desired in enlarging the structure, or providing additional facilities. A combination heating plant to serve a swimming pool would likewise be permitted. The city's preliminary drafts for a civic center would necessarily be al tered, as the veterans' memorial building, for which $14,000 has already been collected in dona tions, would probably be con solidated with the armory. Tweed added that a move for the construction of a swimming pool would be started shortly, but that plans were as yet in definite. He said bids for a pool were called last fall, but all were too high. The plans, he said, now have to be altered to provide a less expensively de signed pool.
