Bit of Stanhope
In Stonemason Jobs
Boyne City, Mich. (U.R)
There is "a little bit of Stan
hope" in literally hundreds of
Michigan buildings.-
Stonemason Guy Stanhope.
66 says the public never will
see it and until now never knew
it, but he has laid his own "cor
nerstone" in a good many build
ings. "I like my work," he said,
"and I get a kick out of leaving
a little bit of Stanhope in every
job."
So, down through the years,
while the dedicating committee
was out front making flowery
speeches, Stanhope was quietly
sealing up his own cornerstones.
Each one contains a news
paper clipping or new-minted
coin, pacKed into a matcn dox,
he said. V
The Rh reference to your
blood on your donor card refers
to the rhesus monkeys that were
used for the initial experiments
in determining the agglutination
quality of the blood. Only 15 out
of every 100 persons have an Rh
negative factor.
His black racer streaked
across the finish line at about
34 miles an hour, in the final
heat to bring him a $5,000 schol
arship at the college of his
choice.
Second was James Thomas,
15, Williamsport, Pa., and third,
Vic Shepherd, 14, Flint, Mich.
Thomas gets an automobile.
Shepherd, driver in the day's
fastest heat, receives a movie
camera and projector..-
The young winner said he was
not sure what he would like to
do or be. .
"I haven't given it much
thought yet," Lunn said.
Fine Performances
Lunn's last trip down - the
974.5 foot long hill was repre
sentative of fine performances
by all the youthful speedsters on
a day that saw th.e race's first
photo finish.
The camera showed Roger
Janssen, Fargo, N.D., had run a
dead heat with Gerald Leather,
Hagerstown, Md., in a first
round race. In a run off, Leather
won by less thaji a foot.
I Boots Save Farmer
, Tarkio, Mo. (U.R) Rubber
boots, saved the life of Maurice
Ryan. Lightning struck his barn
while he was milking a cow. The
cow and a pig nearby were kill
ed. Ryan was shaken up but the
boots he wore apparently saved
him. from being struck. '
