For Radio Gift
Kirkwood, N.J., March 16'(U.PJ
Mrs. Alcthia Roselle, 24, moth
er of three young children,
could "hardly wait" today for
the arrival of the prize she won
on a national radio program.
The prize is a tent for her
family of five to live in after
they are evicted from their one-
room bungalow soon.
Mrs. Roselle, who is expect
ing a fourth child in May, asked
for the tent when she was nam
ed "Queen for a Day" on Jack
Bailey's Hollywood radio pro
gram Tuesday. She said she had
been unable to find a home for
her family and a tent was all
she wanted.
, Mrs. Roselle, wife of an un
employed carpenter, ran three
blocks to a grocery store to an
swer Bailey's call from Holly
wood. She was told she would
get the tent complete with
pegs and poles, a crib for the
expected baby, a kitchen furni
ture set, stocks of food and oth
er home appliances and furn
ishings. Bailey promised it
would all fit in the tent.
But the Roselles may not
have to live in the tent for
long. Frank Kirkner, Warren,
N.Y., farmer, heard the pro
gram and offered Mrs. Rosclle's
husband, Edwin, a job "at a de
cent wage" and to give him a
piece of land and machinery.

has been asked to investigate a
charge by a soft coal miner that
he was fined $50,000 by the Unit
ed Mine Workers and lost his job
for attempting to lead a back to
work movement during the re
cent coal strike.
Lloyd H. Sidener, 44, ousted
president of a UMW local at
Canton, 111., and a shovel engin
eer at the Buck Heart mine for
13 years, filed the complaint
with the NLRB yesterday. He
charged the UMW and the mine
owner, the United Electric Coal
companies, discriminated against
him in violation of the law.

the UMW local 7455 and striking
miners had banned him from re
turning to work February 24 in
compliance with the federal in
junction order of February 11
directing the miners to return to
their jobs. He said he and about
130 other miners attempted to
resume work on the day shift
but were turned back by miners
who formed a picket line.
The $50,000 fine was levied
against him, Sidener said, by the
local at a meeting March 7. He
attempted to return to work on
March 13, Sidener related, but a
group of miners and mine offi
cials halted him.
