Taxi Drivers
Call Meeting
A meeting of Salem taxicab
drivers has been called for 8
o'clock Thursday night to pro
test against the new regulatory
ordinance enacted by the city
council. They urge the public
to attend.
"We want everyone who Is
interested in fair play to be
there," said W. D. Nipper, one
of the drivers instrumental in
calling the meeting. He said
about 30 drivers are interested.
They feel, said Nipper and
Robert Ricketts, another driver
representative, that they are be,
ing discriminated against be
cause of the recent taxicab scan
dal that involved about 11 drivers.
They object to provisions of
the new ordinance that require:
Drivers to stay in or beside
their cabs when not driving.
Wear uniforms, have photos
taken to attach to licenses, and
take physical examinations.
Riders to ride in the rear seats
of cabs unless occupied by two
or more persons.
And make drivers liable to
prosecution if they stop cabs
anywhere except at a regular
taxi stand.
The drivers have to pay. for
the uniforms, the photos and
the physical examinations, they
said, which makes their pay
checks inadequate to meet the
cost of living. Drivers of
Shorty's Cabs are not interested
in the meeting.

Father Acted as Inspiration
For Barbara Ann's Success
A burst of shrapnel and machine-gun fire in World War I
played a large part in making Barbara Ann Scott the champion
that she is, reports her profile in the January 'ssue of Coronet
magazine entitled, "Queen Barbara of the Silver Blades."
"Incredible? Not if you know the determination, courage and
inspiraiion Denina tnis twinK--
ltng blonde Canadian girl who
has captured virtually every
skating honor in the world.
"Acclaimed at the greatest
spinner ever seen on skates, she
is the first girl star to grip pub
lic imagination since Norway's
Sonja Henie of a decade ago.
Crippled in World War I by
shrapnel and machine-gun fire,
Barbara Ann father was her
inspiration. He was determined
that Barbara Ann be able to do
everything he couldn't do and
do it perfectly.
After his death in 1941, Bar
bara Ann rededlcated herself to
her career.
"I used to practice eight hours
a day and think I was working
very hard," she said, "and then
I would come home and find
Dad still working, sometimes
long after midnight. No mat
ter how tired he was, he never
stopped."
Barbara Ann Scott's dedica
tion to her career her record
book shows that she put in more
than 20,000 hours of practice
paid off at the 1948 Olympics
wnere she grasped the cham
pionship with a brilliant show
of skating perfection.
Today, reports Coronet, rep
resentatives of Hollywood stu
dios camp outside her door.
After years of wearing plain,
modest costumes, she takes great
delight in flashy and bespangled
outfits. "She numbers presi
dents, kings and prime minis
ters among her friends.
In Canada, she ranks with
Princess Elizabeth in popularity.
And when she won the Olympic
title, the whole Dominion took
a bow."
