It isn't that bankers In the capi tal are particularly flint-hearted. They just .don't have enough pen nies to make change here. Pennies are a scarce item all over the country, it seems, and U. S Mint Director Nellie Tayloe Ross blames the piggy bank. Last spring Mrs. Ross appealed to the nation to clean out piggy banks, fruit jars, teapots and other penny hordes and put the coppers back into circulation. Results, she says, were gratifying. One woman in Virginia, tor instance, Drougnw 45.000 in to her bank. Now Mrs. Ross has suggested that people turn the piggy banks upside down again. She says: "If each of the estimated 38,- 788.000 (m) American families should release from hiding and re turn to business use just 10 one cent pieces, more than 1,260 tons of scarce copper would be saved, pro viding, of course, that the coins remained in circulation. Actually even with the copper scarcity, the Mint is stamping out pennies at an increasing rate. In Robinson Given Commendation Ribbon By Navy Sergeant Edgar W, Robinson, USMC, son of Mr. and Mrs. Cam- July it made 94,493,000 compared with 59,210,000 in July 1950. Mrs. Ross estimates more than 17,000. 000,000 are in circulation 56,000 tons of copper. The nation's mints are working overtime now, but it would take them five months, with all penny production employes working over time, to turn out as many as would be restored to circulation If each of the nation's families cut loose with 10 of them. Cigarette vending machine ope rators are reported to be feeling the penny pinch the hardest right now. Some are said to be hard to find enough to seal into packages to make change for the quarters you pop into the slot in some states. Mrs. Ross says the penny is "the nation's most used and useful coin." The heavy demand for the coppers, she says, reflects the high level of business activity. Shuler On Duty In Korean Waters Serving aboard the destroyer USS Hubbard in the Far East is Luther L Shuler, seaman appren tice, L'SN, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest M. Shuler of Route 1, Waynesville Shuler, who entered the Naval service Dec. 27, 1950, received his recruit training at San Diego, Calif. The Hubbard has fired more than 190 tons of main battery 5-inch ammunition against Communist targets at W.onsan and Songjin on the East Coast of Korea. ' , I ;,v- - iv' ' hlEU YOHK j it NOOTB CALLAHAN Now that the warm days are be ing replaced by the crispness of Indian summer, it is fitting to say an appreciative farewell to the nightly concerts held in the big Lewisohn Stadium in the Bronx. For this is the poor man's grand opera, the flat-dwellers' -Carnegie Hall. During the summer months, crowds gather at the stadium every evening except on Fridays and Sundays, sit outdoors under the stars and listen to the world's grfeatest music. Eminent artists, anxious to break the off-season period with some live activity, ap pear to sing, and famous conduc tors lead the orchestra. The last time I went there, a young couple beside me looked at the stars awhile, then into each other's eyes, but did not say a word, for they were enthralled by the beauty of the music. And it only cost them 25 cents each to get in. The race between the Dodgers and Giants for the National League baseball pennant has the denizens of those two boroughs nearly crazy. The Yanks are fighting faraway Cleveland for the lead in that league. But the followers of Dem Bums from Brooklyn and Dopey Durocher's uptowners are almost having heart trouble at times, the race is so close. An ardent fan re marked recently that it would be better for the sport as a whole if New York teams didn't win r the pennant so often. RIOTING IN IRANIAN Oil DISPUTE it x-i. 4 hi 4 Ti 'llii -j.-.vfc.

(International) eron Wyatt Robinson of Rt, 1, Haz elwood, was recently awarded the Navy's Commendation Ribbon. It was presented by. Captain C. C. Adell, Commander of the Key West Naval Base, for action in Korea while under enemy fire, The citation, awarded by the Commanding General, First Ma rine Division, Reinforced, stated: "For excellent service in the line of his profession while serving with a Marine infantry battalion during operations in Korea from 15 September to 4 October 1950. Sergeant Robinson, serving as a member of a battalion communica tions' wire team, displayed great skill, courage, and confidence in the performance of his duties. He worked long, tedious hours under the most abnormal field conditions and with only minimum of equip ment establishing and maintaining eommunicaliops with the higher and lower echelons of the battalion. On one occasion when a company of the battalion was attacked by numerically superior enemy forces and communications with the bat talion was broken, he, though ex posed to direct enemy small arms and machine gun fire, with com plete disregard for his own per sonal safety repaired the communi cations lines, thereby setting an ex ample for all who served with him and materially contributed to the success achieved by his battalion. Scregant Robinson's conduct throughout was in keeping wtih the highest traditions of the Uni ted States Naval Service." bgt. Robinson was on duty In Korea from -August 4, 1950 until June 27, 1951. He is 22 years old, unmarried and resides at the Ma rine Corps Barracks. . . Umi Dropped around to the lost and found department of a big local railroad and was surprised at what I saw. Piles of clocks, shoes, radios, cameraseven a fur coat wnicn was supposedly meant for a man's wife but later turned out to be otherwise umbrellas and glasses which had been left on the trains. Everything, you might say, but the kitchen sink. But wait a minute. The railroad officials actually found a kitchen sink left on a train when it recently pulled into the station. Evidently lost by an immigrant who was taking no chances. The only thing which ever "stumped" the clerk, he told me, was a wooden leg that was found. For some rea son, he said, false teeth, toupees and wigs are never called .for, so the railroad has a lot of them which have accumulated and which don't sell well at the auc tions. Oh yes, over-size corsets are often left on the trains never call ed for. One man, who rushed into the depot complaining that he had lost his eye-glasses and had looked all over his berth for them, got a surprise. The clerk merely pointed to the man's forehead, he reached up and felt his glasses which he had pushed up there and he walk ed away without saying a word. Cooler, Cleaner, Cheaper to run!
