Los Angeles' (U.R) A pretty
protographer's model Friday de
manded $100,000 damages from
an advertising firm she accused
of retouching a photograph to
make it appear that she posed
in the nude.
Brunette Mrs.Joan Evans, 25,
filed the fraud suit Thursday
against Dean Simmons, president
of an advertising company she
said distributed the 'picture of
her in an ad for a shower bath
appliance.
Mrs. Evans, wife of an Air
Force officer, said she were a
bathing suit when she posed for
the photo and was told that only
her head and shoulders would
appear in the picture.
She charged that Simmons
conspired to have the picture re
touched so that it appeared she
was posing in the nude and then
distributed the advertisement to
publications throughout the
country. '

In Prima rv
Concord, N. H. (U.B It's not
true that as Maine goes so goes
the nation in an election. But in
a.
every election sincelW2 it's
been true of Strafford bounty,
New Hampshire.
That's why the eyes of the
nation will be on Strafford
county Tuesday when the New
Hampshire primary will be held.
President Truman, Eisenhower,
Taft, Kefauver and the other
persons entered in the primary
may get a pretty good idea how
they stand with the voters at this
moment
Close to Crou-Sectio
Strafford county, with a pop
ulation of 91,000, lies in the
southeastern section of the state
It contains three cities. Rochester
normally is Republican, Sohv
ersworth is Democrajc. Dover,
the county seat, goes either way.
The three cities and the rural
population apparently are the
closest thing you eantind to a
cross-section oi now American
voters are thinking.
For instance, in 1916 the vote
for president was so close that
Charles Evans Hughes; the Re
publican candidate, went to bed
thinking he had been elected
president. He woke up the next
morning to learn that Woodrow
Wilson had carried California
and the presidency. In that elec
tion Strafford county stood: For
Wilson, 4,040; for Hughes, 4,037.
Went for Roosevelt
New Hampshire normally is
a Republican state. But Frank
lin D. Roosevelt carried Straf
ford county by a margin of bet
ter than three to two against
both Alfred M. Landon and Wen
dell Willkie. In 1948, Strafford
county returns were: Truman,
11,603; xDewey, 9,988.
There is a chance Strafford
county may lose its reputation
as s barometer because the vot
ing rules have been changed.
For the first time voters will
Most Cities Require
Owners To Shove Snow
Chicago . (U.B Most city
property owners, like their coun
try cousins, must shovel snow
or hire somebody to do it
This was the finding of the
American Public Works associ
ation in a study of snow remov
al in 30 large cities.
Only four cities reported that
they use city equipment and
personnel to clear snow from
sidewalks.
These are Kansas City, Mo.;
Montreal, Quebec; Winnipeg,
Ont, and Milwaukee. The latter
will do it only if the property
owner will foot the biU.
Tons of Copper 'Mined
In Heart of Chicago
Chicago (U.R) A Chicago
utility firm is "mining" tons of
scarce copper and lead in the
heart of the city. '
Commonwealth Edison has
crews at work ripping out under
ground electric cable, laid iO to
40 years ago.
. The company estimated that
it recovered 2,400,000 pounds of
copper and 2,500,000 pounds of
lead from beneath the city's
streets in 1951.
The old cable U replaced by
more efficient conductors and
sent to smelters as scrap.
