East Salem Mothers' Club
Considers School Problems
East Salem, Oct. 25 At the October meeting of the Auburn
Mother's club held at the schoolhouse several items of business
were considered that were in the interest of the school children,
the school grounds, and the parents.
Mrs. Orval Prunk, vice president, presided in the absence of
the president, Mrs. E. C. Sunder-
lin. Carl Thelen, a teacher of
instrumental music for the Sa
lem schools was present and ask
ed for each parent who would
like to have their child take part
in an orchestra or band talk to
him about the individual plac
ing of each one, rather than as
a group.
Miss Lucy McAfee, local girl
scout counselor spoke on behalf
of the Brownies who are this
year old enough to be members
of the intermediate girl scout
troop. There are several of these
girls who need only a leader to
have their own troop, and are
at this time being helped by
neighboring troop leader.
Reports of the executive board
meeting were considered with
several of the recommendations
accepted. As a prize for the
room having the best repre
sentation of mothers present at
the meetings a book will be
awarded each month. A per
centage basis will be used for
making the award. This month
the room of Mrs. Velma Laverty
was awarded the book.
The recommendation of the
board as to the refreshment
committee was amended to be
that there will be one volunteer
mother each month, and she will
ask two others to serve with her.
An exchange table will be set
up at each meeting with out
grown clothing and uniforms
placed on it, and the money
from the sale of these will go to
the club treasurer.
Dues will be $1 a year with
all mothers who are members
paying, if they attend or not.
Chairman of the special project
committee called for volunteers
on Saturday to help with some
cleaning needed on the school
grounds. The cub scout meeting
on Friday was announced. Serv
ing as a refreshment committee
were Mrs. Prunk, Mrs. Donald
Jacobs and Mrs. Arthur Fiske.

14 Wounded by
Crazed Farmer
Waterford, Mich., Oct. 25 UP)
A crazed, middle-aged farmer
shot up two taverns last night,
then killed himself after wound
ing ten persons.
On a mad spree with a shot
gun Joe Runyon, 57, terrorized
this sleepy little resort village in
a begrudging farewell to the
world.
Two of his victims, both wom
en, were critically wounded.
Tramping back and forth
across a street, Runyon fired sev-
en or eight charges from a 12
gauge shotgun through windows
of the two taverns, witnesses
said.
At the end of a violent 10 or
12 minutes, he walked a short
distance up the street and fired,
a final charge through his own
chest. I
This was the last in a series
of rapid reloadings. Runyon's
gun was a single-shot weapon.
Reported In critical condition
today at Pontiac General hospi
tal were Mrs. Irene Zurawski,
37, and her mother-in-law, Mrs.
Helen Psciuk, 50.
It was at the Zurawski fami
ly's small bar where Runyon
made one attack.
Six persons were wounded
there and another four at the bar

Many Long Distance operators now ring telephones in a number of cities across the country.. .much as you dial a call.
SHE "PUSH-BUTTONS" CALLS COAST-TO-COAST
New system can put through calls in 30 seconds
"3 h- Yi "."""57" T II
1. One of our newest developments to speed your Long
Distance calls is this push-button equipment Precise in
operation, so complex it's almost a mechanical brain, it's
a key to a system which permits an operator to call
straight through to telephones in other cities...practically
as fast as dialing across town. Push-button or dial equip
ment now is used for three out of four calls between cities.
3. Perhaps your next Long Distance call may be
handled this way. For the new plan is part of our continu
ing program to improve all service local and Long Dis
tance to make it more valuable to you. Today your tele
phone is a bargain. A daytime station call to any point on
the East Coast is only $2.50 plus tax. ..the lowest rate ever.
2. Quicker call completions are one big advantage of
the operator push-button system. If you know the num
berinstead of just the name and address we can ring
the telephone you are calling in an average of about thirty
seconds after you lift the receiver. That's three times as
fast as we can serve you if you, don't know the number.
So it's a good idea to keep a lfct of those you call often.
Your telephone is one of
today's best bargains
