To qualify, bottles must be identical in all respects - in ' hiding the label to a 19th - century glass container . which was discovered 1 a st " year at an Ohio fair, and which is now housed in a So- ciaty safe. Many thousands of j these bottles were produced in ' 1 Wheeling, West Virginia, be - tween 1843 and 1890 and wid- ly distributed across the na tion. What inspires the interest of the Society for the Preserva ; ;tion of the Crow is the uni . que lable a lithographic re- production of two common - American crows. The Society . has as its slogan an old Welsh saying, "Two Crows You See, Good Luck To Thee!", which is;t)art of the folklore; that has1 linked the crow with a good fortune th2 world over since Biblical times. "The antique bottles for which we are searching con c stitute living proof of the I, crow's good - luck heritage," Dr. Horace C. Gifford, execu tive diector of the Society, ..-said. . To be eligible for award con , sideration, an entry must dupli ' cate perfectly the existing mo del pictured in the accom panying photograph, and must be received unbroken. The ' first five fully - qaulified bot 7 ties to arrive at the Society's headquarters, from five sep varate xiousehoDds in five dif ferent communities within the United States will earn their owners $5,000 apiece, and $100 will be paid for each of the next 95. The sole determinant is the time of receipt by the Society, irrespective of the postmark date. Bottles re ceived in a single mail deliv ery will be placed, however, in order of the distance trav eled the farthest point of origin first and the nearest last. No award will be made to anyone directly or iridirectly connected with the alcoho lic beverage industry, or to residents of state where such awards are prohibited or oth erwise restricted by law. Entries should be packed vvery carefully, clearly mark ed with the sender's printed name and address, and mail ed to: The Society for the Preservation of the Crow, 25 East 73rd Street, New York, New York 10021. - Members of the Baotist Church here are proud that they have won c fight to pav a bit of old Chapel Hill from the march of commercialism. They figure this is a real ac complishment in an era when lovers of beauty and pre servers of the past usually lose if they come to grips with bulldozers and demoli tion crews. Many Chapel Hillians were shocked last year to learn that a 15-cent hamburger chain planned to build a quick-order restaurant on a grassy lot next door to the church at a corner of the town's main in tersection. They expressed dis approval through letters to the newspapers and calls to the mayor rnd aldermen. Persons connected with the University had special cause for concern since the hambur ger place would be across th street from the Ackland Art Center, which houses the Uni versity's art galleries and art department. Letters to the Chapel Hill Weekly included a strong protest from Joseph C. Sloane, chairman of the de partment. Although probably more than 90 per cent of Chapel Hill's population was opposed to the project, chances of head ing it off seemed remote. The hamburger people had already leased the lot, which is in a business zone with no restric tions on the type of structure they proposed. Their building plans had been approved by municipal authorities before the general public realized the situation For many years the Baptists had tried unsuccessfully to ac quire the controversial lot. According to a long-currpnt story, their efforts failed be cause 3 previous owner was expelled from the Baptist con gregation and directed in his will that the property never be sold or given to the church. When the Rev. Samuel T. Habel was pastor of the church a few years ago, he made several visits to the two broth ers in Durham who owned the lot and tried to nersuade them to let the church transform it into a memorial garden named for them or their parents. Recently when prospects seemed darkest for opponent of the restaurant, a group of citizens suggested that the town trade the restaurant chain another piece of orpner ty for its corner lot. Officials of the firm said they would de cline such an offer. James C. Wallace, a mem ber of the Chapel Hill .plan ning Board, then suggested three possible courses: that the town condemn rnd buv the lot for a Dark, that the build ing permit decision be appeal ed or that rezoning be ap proved. When it appeared that these proposals had come too late,, the church mounted a delay ing action with an appeal to the Chapel Hill bo?rd of ad justment for a review of the building permit decision. This appeal, filed in behalf of the church by three of its lay leaders, Chapel Hill Record er's Court Judge L.J. Phipps, Orange County Commissioner Harvey D. Bennett, and Carl J. Seymour, held that ade quate parking space was not provided in plans for the pro posed restaurant. It was made known that if the appeal failed and the building permit was upheld, as everybody expected, the church or some other group would seek further delay by taking the matter to the Orange County Superior Court. The prospect of such a move, dIus hostility from thp entire com munity caused the restau rant people to relinquish their lease and back down from a position they had seemed de termined to hold. The church has contracted to buy th property and will maintain it as a park or gar den. A number of non-Baptists have contributed to the pur chase fund. Many Chapel Hillians feel that this outcome phows the chamDions of muni cipal beauty and order as able to prevail against the power ful forces of commercialism. As the population mounts in dizzying spirals, towns and cities everywhere undergo radical change and expansion. But for vigorous opposition by aroused citizens, Chapel Hill's share of these changes would have included the lush blossoming of a hamburger place in a part of town where ii was not wanted.

Eighteen years ago Evelyn Wood, a Utah school teacher, made a startling discovery that led to the founding of Reading Dynamics. While working toward a master's degree, she handed a term paper to a professor and watched him read the 89 pages at 6,000 words per minute with outstanding recall and comprehension. Deter mined to find the secret behind such rapid reading, she spent the next two years tracking down 50 people who could read faster than 1,500 words per minute. She studied their techniques, taught herself to read at these faster rates. Now, after years of experience in public schools and universities, she has made it possible for you to benefit from this great discovery. Is It Simply ft Promotion Over the past eleven years more than 160,000 graduates have been , convinced that Reading Dynamics is a proven method. About Reading Dynamics' impact on our nation's legislators. Time Maga zine said "Washington has seen nothing like it since the days when Teddy Roosevelt read three books a day and ran the country at the same time." Conventional rapid reading courses aspire to 450-600 words per minute. Most Reading Dynamics graduates can read between 1,000 and 3,000 words per minute, and many go even higher. Money -Back Guarantee We guarantee to increase the reading efficiency of each student AT LEAST 3 times with good comprehension. We will refund the entire tuition to any student who, after com pleting minimum class and study requirements, does not at least triple his reading efficiency as measured by our be ginning and ending tests.
