Bombing Threats
In Schools Present
Problems for Heads
Dayton, Ohio (LTD - A tele
phone rings in a school and a
secretary answers. A curt
voice says, "A bomb is going
to explode in your school
soon. We mean business." The
caller hangs up.
If you are a school super
intendent, responsible for the
well-being of 5,000 young
ster', what do you do?
Dismiss school for the day
and encourage a prankster
who wanted you to do exactly
that?
Or assemble sheriffs depu
ties and school custodians to
conduct a hasty search of
your five sprawling schools
while the pupils remain in
their classes and you pray the
caller didn't "mean busi
ness"? - ' ,.
Problem Faces
Superintendent
This problem today faced
Vaughn Lewis, superintend
ent of schools in-prosperous,
rapidly growing Beaver
Creek Township, just outside
the southwestern Ohio city of
Dayton.
The 4,700 students under
Lewis' jurisdiction lost a day
of schooling . this week be
cause of a telephoned bomb
threat, the latest in a series in
the five-county area which in
cludes the Dayton and Cin
cinnati metropolitan centers,
s The first scare occurred in
'TCorth College Hill, a suburb
;bf Cincinnati, in September.
Officials closed the schools
ior a day but reopened them
th following Saturday and
made attendance mandatory.
.The school' received; no more
threats.
Woman Phones Threat
' A woman telephoned police
In Carlisle, a small town 10
miles south of Dayton, Mon
day and said a bomb had been
planted in a school. About
1,400 students were sent
home. Police searched all
schools in the town but found
no bomb.
Tuesday, a caller tele
phoned the Sugar Creek
school in Bellbrook, near Bea
ver Creek Township, at 12:15
p.m. He said a bomb would go
off within 45 minutes. School
was dismissed for the day.
; Lewis said he thought the
call - his school system re
ceived was just the beginning
of another rash. One threat
inspires another somewhere
else, he said. , ,

Try and Stop Me
-By BENNETT CERF-
A CONFIRMED BACHELOR, president of a bank, and on
the threshold of sixty, decided matrimony had its attrac
tions after all, so he married a plump widow with an allur
ing 18-year-old daughter.
It soon became apparent
that he was much more
interested in the daugh
ter than in her mother.
Chided by his directors
for causing gossip injuri
ous to the bank, the pres
ident defended himself
vigorously. "Gentlemen,"
he explained, "I merely
am living up to a bank
ing tradition: 'Have fun
with : the interest, but
never touch, the princi
pal.' n . . -
. One of Carolyn 'Wells' favorite limericks: ,
A scholarly person named Finck
. . Went mad in the effort to think
Which were graver misplaced
To dip pen in his paste
Or dip his paste-brush in the ink.
