Furnished Armory r» ; Parents Urged to Stop At Armory to Ob serve Activities » » ————— j Tex Lindsay, the town’s recreation al director, this week expressed his appreciation for the Town and Coun ty agreeing to furnish heat -in the ! armory. “Being connected with the various activities at the armory,” stated Mr. Lindsay, “gives me a chance to see the needs of those who take part. The armory needs heating regularlj only about three months and then as occasions arise. The heat was a nec essity.” Activities have grown considerably, according to Mr. Lindsay, who says several basketball teams in the town and county use the armory. Then, too, the high school basketball teams practice regularly and other recrea tional games take up a considerable amount of time. A large crowd has been present each Saturday night and Sunday af ternoon, in spite of the bad weather, reports Mr. Lindsay. Mr. Lindsay says he is expecting to take some pictures of the various activities Saturday night, and urges parents to stop in at the armory Sat urday nights or Sunday afternoons to get some idea of the program as it is being carried out. The basketball court has recently been treated and Lindsay says there is a general desire to cooperate in keeping the floor in good condition. Anyone going into the armory is re quested not to walk on the floor with street shoes. Seats are not to be pushed across the floor and Mr. Lind say urges those who are responsible for dances in the armory to see to it that dancing powder or similar pre paration is placed on the floor in or der to protect it.

LOOKING AT WASHINGTON (Continued From Page Six) of establishing a Jewish State in Palestine. The United Nations will have to depend upon the United States to provide some of the military strength required and the net result will be that the United Nations, set up to es tablish the peace of the world, will touch off a conflict by attempting to impose its decision upon the Arabs. Marshall Urges U. S. To i Make Decision About Europe I Secretary of State George C. Mar shall advises the United States either to meet the requirements of the Euro pean problem or to leave the whole thing alone. He warns that if we are not prepared to assist in the recon ■ struction of Western Europe, we I “must accept the consequences of its i collapse into the dictatorship of po lice states.” Mr. Marshall makes it clear that Russia and the Communist parties of Europe will “oppose and sabotage 1 ’ our program at every opportunity, but he also declares that the United States can undertake the program with success if it acts in time. The fact that the Russians, who ex pect to advance the cause of Com munism through chaos, bitterly fight the Marshall Plan, is one of the best evidences that it is what the United States should do. Obviously, the Western nations of Europe, together with the others included in The pro gram, suffered severe damage during the war. Its grand design to re habilitate their economic processes will inevitably strenthen their govern ments and make them count for more I in the council of the nations, j It might as well be realized in the j United States that nations which en- I joy the freedoms of civilization are ! not organized to fight the concen -1 trated power of totalitarian or Com- I munist states.
