Jack Clenaghen, Ormond Bin- ford, and Harry Glickman filed the petition as individuals a few moments before the deadline for filing at the city auditor's office. Voters in May passed by a nar row margin a ballot measure that would have required the center to be built on the east side. The measure also clouded the legal authority to the exposition-recreation center to act. Clenaghen said that "In view of the city attorney's opinion that the east side limitation E-R measure just passed by the vot ers may be tied up in the courts for the next several months or years, we are filing an initiative petition to repeal this controver sial measure." He added that if the city coun cil should initiate its own meas ure to clarify the E-R status, the three - man petition would be withdrawn.

The law specifically provides that the management, direction and control of the school house as a civic center shall be veted in the district school board and that such board may appoint a special supervising officer to pre serve order and protect school property, Thornton concluded.

Men learn to bate their wives, I And only parents' love Can last out lives. Browning. If the father is the stronger physically, the child is most like ly to be a girl. If the mother is the healthier and more husky of the two, it will be a boy. Such is a scientific theory as to sex pre-determination now beinj checked. A report on a number of couples indicates there may be something to this claim. Those doing the research point out that many powerful fathers have all girl families. As for example, Jack Dempsey and Rocky Marci ano, .you may ask, "How about Eddie Cantor, father of an -all-girL family of five?" At the peak of his career as a parent Eddie was possessed of boundless en ergy and outstanding physical endurance. Anybody who saw and heard Mr. Cantor singing "If You Knew Susie" in the Zieg field Follies will agree to that. In just one rendition of that song Eddie used up as much en ergy and strength as a boxer does in a 15-round bout. How ever, even in the case of a physi cally powerful husband, accord ing to the scientific theory being discussed, measures can be taken against an all-daughter family to acquire a son. This can be done by weakening the father by put ting him on a starvation diet. In the case of an all-son family, where the mother is healthier and huskier than her spouse, a daughter may possibly be ob tained by putting Mama on a Body of Drowned Man Found by Father Horseshoe Bend. Idaho (U.R) The body of Frank Tucker, 26, Caldwell, Ida., one of two men drowned when their canvas canoe overturned June 19 in the Payette river, was found Fri day by his father. The discovery was made by Frank L. Tucker Sr. Portland, Ore., who came to Idaho to aid in the search for his son. Boise County Sheriff John Williams, in whose jurisdiction the accident occurred, reported the discovery. The younger Tucker and Hans Hoss, 24, Nampa, Idaho, disap peared when their boat over turned as they attempted to "shoot" some rapids in the riv er above Banks. Hoss' body was recovered a week later at a pow er dam near here, some 16 miles downstream from the accident.
