Santa's Helpers This trio is shown loading toys for trans
portion to a repair depot for rejuvenation as Christmas
gifts to Salem's needy. The Exchange club, sponsors of the

dolls to keep their repair crews busy. Toys may be left at
any Richfield station, Marion Motors, the Veterans' Colony of
fice, or they will be called for without charge by the Willam

ITown Square
Nation's Axis
i If the political pollsters had
'listened to the voices in town
Isquare on Saturday night, Gal
lup and Roeper's faces wouldn't
ave been so red the morning af
ter the November election.
J That's the importance placed
on the town square of America
by Willard Mayberry. Kansan
.with a half-dozen professional
'hobbles, including farming and
lecturing. He spoke Tuesday
'night before a Knife and Fork
.dinner at the Chamber of Com
merce. ! He described the community
meeting point of a Saturday
night as "the axis on which the
country revolves an axis
thrust up through every town."
'. What is the nation thinking?
Mayberry suggested the answer
be found in town square, or hall,
'where the "local Kiplingers,
quarterback clubs, and barber
shop orators hold forth."
i "Town square is more on
guard for its rights and liberties
than any other unit . . . You
can't suppress conversation in a
arber shop."
All cities and towns of the na
tion experience the same Satur
day night gatherings, whether
,it be Salem, Ore., Breckinridge,
Texas, or Times Square, New
JYork, he commented. "Every
body Is in the square watching
;his neighbors."
i "As long as you have a town
square, you will have no sup
pression of thought."
f Prior to the talk, Wayne Mer
cer, Salem High School Junior,
Iplayed several xylophone selec
tions. The January meeting of
Knife and Fork will feature
Harold C. Kesinger, speaking on
"Can Man Save Himself from
His Own Inventions?"
Miss Gibbens Given
jWardrobe for Trip
; Wishing to have a share in the
recognition that has come to Sa
lem through the musical ability
of Ann Gibbens, talented young
: musician, a number of service
clubs and the Chamner of Com
merce have handed together to
secure a wardrnhe and luggage
for her. Miss Glbhent. 16 year
old daughter of Mr and Mrs
Harvey Gibbens. llipn Saginaw
street, will leave Dee 9 for New
York City where she will be a

The Kiwanis elun earlier in
the week voted $100 from its
treasury for Miss Gibbens and it
is understood other organiza
tions plan to have a part in the
undertaking.
Miss. Gibbens will play two
piano selections during next
Monday's luncheon of the Cham-
i ber of Commerce when her
j mother and grandmother will be
; guests. The latter is Mrs. Grace
i Gibbens of Florence Ore., who
I heard her granddaughter for the
, first time during the regional

Dr. G. Herbert Smith, presi
dent of Willamette university,
I was signally honored during the
annual Inter-fraternity confer
ence held in New York City

gold medal that is awarded for
"distinguished service to youth."
ur. hmith returned to the cam
pus late Wednesday following
an extensive tour that included
stops in Los Angeles, Tuscaloo
sa and Emory, Ala.
Presentation of the award
was made by Dr. Gilbert Mead,
president of Washington college.
Chesterfield, Md. The first
award was made in 1940 to Al
bert Bard, New York attorney
and member of Chi Psi frater
nity. The war interrupted the
program but since the end of
hostilities, two awards were

Where Some of Used
Cars Come From
A partial answer as to where
"bargain" used cars come from
was contained in police records
in Salem Thursday.
A Seattle couple and another
man were arrested for failing to
have continuous trip permits
for the transportation of com
mercial vehicles.
Charles and Mary Hughes
and Hugh W. Kennedy paid $3
bail on the charge. The trio were
driving used taxicabs, purchas
ed in California, to Seattle for
sale as used cars.
Lockwood Tells
.Game Prospects
Charles Lockwood of the state
game commission can see little
received here by Dr. Mott and'
Karl Pease, prominent Oregon
member of the SAR.

months ago and was a guest at
the Mott home. His election last

and In other ways eliminate

to fewer pheasants, Lockwood
said during Thursday's Lions
club luncheon.
The speaker touched upon the
various phases of wild life con
trol and said that screening of
irrigation ditches has resulted in
saving more fish than the com
mission could possibly propa
gate. A crew of 30 men is kept
on the Job building screens and
installing them and eventually
all of the streams will be cov
ered. Another half dozen men
are kept busy removing obstruc
tions from the streams that pre
vent the free movement of fish.
The five year program out
lined by the commission for the
building up of wild life and its
proper management will cost in
the neighborhood of $15,000,000,
said Lockwood. Receipts do not
nearly cover this outlay and ad
ditional revenues must be made
available if the plan is to be
carried out.
Plea for Needed
Christmas Extras
Staff members from the pub
lic welfare office report there
is need of the little "extras"
at Christmas time to go to
needy families In this area. The
office sends out the regular
food requisitions, but at Christ
mas time tries to put in such
items as Christmas wrapping
papers, tree ornaments, used
toys that are in good shape, can
dies, and nuts, the effort being
to remember the children in
needy families.
Persons who wish to contri
bute some of these items may
leave them at the welfare office.

Wiry it's wise to have

putting in anti-breeze.
You itvr anti-freem to protect your motor from a freeze-up and to help it run
more efficiently by keeping the cooling system free from runt. If anti -freeze leak
out, what have you got? NO protection . . . maybe a mined engine block. Heavy
expense, your car laid up. (And you've loet your anti-freeze.)
So, befort installing anti-freeze, have the cooling system gone over. No repairs
may be needed but even a timple irupection it worth what it ma' cost. Here' what
