2,000-memner local and as a vice
president of the 270,000-member
international union. Fellow union

he had patched up marital dif
ferences with the school teacher
husband she once claimed was
fired from his job because of her
aplcy book.
"I'm going back to live with
my husband," Mrs. Metalious
told newsmen.
Referring to reports linking her
romantically wilh a radio disc
jxkey, Mrs. Metalious said "my
big love affair has blown up like
burst balloon."
"I've beon in love once and
I've been married once," added
the 33 year old author whose
earthy book about life in a small
New England town has been
made into a movie.
She and her husband, George,
alio 33. were married when they
were only 17. They separated
shertly after her novel was pub
lished late in 1K6.
Mrs. Metalious described
George's dismissal from his
teaching job as "an example of
mall town intolerance item
mlng from rumors she had writ
ten a "'dirty book."
School board members laid
failure to renew Metalious' teach
ing contract was "a personal mat

with "Peyton Place."
Metalious, who had served as
principal of Gilmanton Grammar
School, obtained a $3,400 a year
position teaching history and com

Chorus Slates
KF Program
A concert program which is dif
ferent in content from that sung
by most college choirs will be
presented by the Occidental Col
lege Glee Clubs of Los Angeles on
February 7, at 8 p.m. in the First
Presbyterian Church.
Howard Swan, who has directed
the activities of the Occidental
Chorus for 23 year s, believes
strongly in planning a program
which will appeal to every mem
ber of an audience. Added variety
is given to the concert by the na
ture of its presentation. Stirring
male choruses and selections sung
by the women's ensemble together
with Instrumental and vocal so
loists add freshness and appeal to
the program.
Testifying to the public interest
in this type of concert have been
the appearances of the Occidental
Glee Clubs with the Los Angeles
and San Diego Symphony Orches
tras, the seasonal broadcasts of
the ensemble for the Mutual
Broadcasting System, and the in
variable requests for return en
gagements by this very popular
singing organization.

stated, plans would go forward lor

Driving Case
Dismissed
Charges of driving while un
der the influence of alcohol facing
Donald Schonchin, 32. of Beatty.
were dismissed Monday afternoon
in circuit ourt after the case
dismissal was motioned by Pros
ecuting Deputy District Attorney
Freeman Murray.
The dismissal motion was based
on the fact that the testifying
slate police officer was not the
arresting officer and that his tes
timony would be hearsay based
on what had been told him by the
arresting officer. The state police
organization has employed the
practice of having a court officer
handle the cases after having been
informed by the arresting officer.
The dismissal action was grant
ed by Circuit Judge David R.
Vandcnhcrg after the jury selec
tion had been completed. Schon
chin was appealing a prior guilty
verdict handed down by a dis
trict court jury.
He was represented by Attorn
eys Glenn Kamirei and P. K.
Puckett.
Oldsters Mourn
Whistie's 'Death'
GALESBURG. 111. W-The pass
ing of the venerable steam whis
tle atop the old Illinois Power Co.
plant caused nary a ripple 'in
Galcsburg,
Oply the old-timers remem
bered, and shook their heads
sadly.
"I can remember the day when
the whistle in its low mournful
tone announced the assassination
of President McKinley," one of
them lamented.
"It sounded mournful on events
like disasters, declaration of wars
and the like," another recalled.
But the new generation didn't
even miss -it when that storied
hunk of tin fell by the wayside
recently. It had to go. The old
power plant which supported it for
something like 50 years or more
was being razed.
The Galesburg Register - Mail
wrote this epitaph: "For them
(the old-timers) the old power
house whistle holds something
hard to understand, something
that is just as much of Galesburg
as they themselves."
Like a fussy old nursemaid, the
whistle used to rouse the working
folks at 8 a. m. and send them
back to their homes at 5 p. in.
Oldsters say it took on a joyful
tone -when announcing glad tiding,
but its timber could change to
one of grave seriousness, as it
did to signal the attack on Pearl
Harbor.

meteri was currently being used
for police, traffic and street light
ing purposes, all of which bene
fited the downtown area.
Ed Bell, chairman of the City
Budget Committee, itemized the
purposes for which the city was
utilizing parking meter fundi, and
then pointed out that, in his esti
mation, it was wrong to channel
the money from the parking me
ters and the occupation taxes into
other departments. "We must plan
for the future," Bell said. "If we
don't protect the downtown area
and prevent its devaluation, we
will be negligent in our duties to
the taxpayers of the city.
'The homeowners must kick-in
their share," he continued, "to
protect the downtown area. It'i a
very serious situation. As chair
man of the budget committee,"
he summarized, "I would recom
mend we approve this request for
use of the parking meter fundi
and the occupation taxes for off
street parking."
Fleet suggested that rather than
take the parking meter money, ap
proximately $53,000 per year, from
the police budget and then asking
the voters to approve about a five
mill levy for the police depart
ment to make up the lost fundi, it
T Member
Need Cited
Wilbur Womer, 1958 member-
ship roundup boss, told local
YMCA members at tne ktckoit
breakfast Tuesday morning in the
headquarters building, that ad
ditional members are - needed to
produce $5,000 this year In order
to sustain the local organization.
Lyle Kcllstrom, president of the
board of directors, backed up the
statement by adding that "It's
a part of our annual income ana
is essential to the YMCA."
Meanwhile Womer added that
next Tuesday there will be a mort
gage -burning breakfast In the
headquarters building, with the
time set later.
Womer stated that approximate
ly eight new or renewal members
for each ranch hand and boss are
needed, or about 800 new signing!
should be attained by the time
the drive ends on February 4.
He added that there are two
phases of the contest among the
ranch hands. The first Is the burn
ing of the mortgage when a ranch
has filled its quota of new mem
bers and the second is for the In
dividual leader in the drive.
Points or "doggies" are awarded
for rounding up the "strays." A
hand will receive 10 dogglei for
each new member and one dog
gie for every dollar that the itrayi
bring into the organization.
would be more proper to ask
voteri for a five mill levy for off-
street parking purpoiei.
The council took no action on
the request at thii meeting.
PARK AND RECREATION
Another delegation of members
of the City Park and Recreation
committees appeared to request
that a measure be put on tne .May
ballot asking an increase of one
mill levy each for both the Park
and the Recreation departments.
Councilman James Barnes who
represents the council on the Park
and Recreation committees,
pointed out that the operating mon
ies of both departments have
been constantly on the decrease
while the request for tervicei has
been increasing.
"Our per capita average for
parks and recreation," Barnes
said, "has decreased from $3.70
in 1953 to 2.67 in 1957.
Stan Miller, member of the
commission, stated that the in
creased levies are necessary if
the people want to maintain and
keep in good repair the facilities
they presently have.
Martin Brauner, another board
member, pointed out that the city
is trying to attract people, ana tnai
an adequate park and recreation
program is important. "The best
we eould do," he said, "without
this additional levy, is maintain
our program at a bare minimum.
Mayor Slater commented thai
requests for additional funds have
come also from the police and fire
departments, from the airport
committee for a new terminal
building, as well as new money
for the itreet department for a
new shop, He also speculated that
there had been consideration of
the city purchasing a paving
plant, and other financial needs.
"It Is the council's feeling," he
concluded, "that with business in
Oregon as it is, that it would be
ill-advised to put measures on the
May ballot asking for increased
funds."
OTHER ACTION
, In other action the city council:
1. Awarded equipment 7 b i d s
for units-needed .in the primary
sewage treatment plant which will
be built, by the H. G. Carl Con
struction Company of Salem at a
cost of $238,386.29.
2. Approved the blocking of Fifth
Street from Kinlock to Willow for
the balance of the Inclement
winter weather.
S. Ordered the city engineer to
investigate prospects of paving
Mesa Street from Auburn to Huron
as requested by a petition pre
sented to the council.
