S. Capitol, it probably did for a few minutes anyway. More flags fly from the flag pole over the west entrance of the Capitol than almost any where else in the country. After a short time aloft, each of these flags is hauled down, packed and shipped across the country to a school, veterans post or civic organization. During a busy season, Capitol police get a real workout running flags up and down the flagpole every few minutes " ; . The practice of distributing worn-out Capitol flags was init iated some years ago. But offic ials found that the supply of le gitimate worn-out flags was nev er equal to the demand. Now, a congressman, who usu ally fills such requests for the folks back home, purchases a flag from the House stationery shop and sends it over to the Cap itol architect, David Lynn, to have it flown over the buildings. Lynn sees that this is done and returns the flag with a letter stating that it flew over the Cap itol. The congressman mails it back home. Several ' hundred requests for flags are filled each year. Lynn said he uses the flagpole over the west entrance because it's a newer type and easier to operate. The flags over the west and east entrances of the Capitol are two of a handful of American flags permitted to fly day and night. Health Exams Dr. O. J. Hal both and Dr. Fred T. Burich will be at St. Marys school 'Wednes day, Nov. 10, to conduct health examinations for students in the first grade. Mrs. F. W.
