\ Ten Uttle Injuns
Is Delayed Here
- Jim McMillen, founder of the
Dunn Little Thpatre, today ?.n
--t nounced with regret, that the plans
to put on the play, "Ten Little
Indians" had been tabled, at least
for the present.
: The group had been unable to
complete a cast for the production
. at this time. "Perhaps after the 1
holidays, we can manage to in
terest more of the local talent in
lending their services," McMillen
said.
He pointed out that many of the
loyal Little Theatre devotees had
expressed deep concern over the
apathy on the part of the members
of the group who were histrionically
, inclined.
“We earnestly hope." McMillen
■ said, “that interest in the group
may b£ revived. However “he re
« minded, "an aggressive forward
moving organization, responding to
the cultural needs of a community,
must have both workers and actors."
i He said there were plenty of
workers but that there were too
few who were willing and able to
■portray a characterization on the
. stage. Without sufficient actors, he
. pointed out. there cannot be a play

Orphanage Has
Big Fire Loss
Fie late yesterday afternoon com
pletely destroyed the dairy barn
at the Falcon orphanage. The cause
of the blaze could not be determin
ed.
The fire was first discovered at
4:00 p. m. while most of the per
sonnel and the students were out
picking cotton. The blaze ripped
through the 80 foot square frame 1
structure so quickly that there was ;
no chance of putting out the flames, j
Superintendent C. T. McCartney \
estimated the damage at between |
SIB,OOO and $20:000. All milk equip- j
ment and 1800 bald of hav were |
destroyed. The only casualty was
the Guernsey bull the orphanage i
uses for stud.
None of the herd of. 20 cows was !
injured, however. Part of the milk
from the herd ; s.consumed by the !
orphanage children and the re
mainder is sold to neighboring pas- :

Mis. Bond waited all day Mon
day for the Youngs to come by.
She's afraid the Youngs might
have failed to get her message,
perhaps thought she had already
returned to San Antonio and left
her.
Or. she’s hoping that they’ve just
been delayed and will be by for
her.
The trouble is that Mrs. Bond
failed to get the name of Mrs.
Young’s parents and thus is unable
to contact them!
She appealed to The Daily Rec
ord today to notify the Youngs
that she’s at the Gainey rooming
house waiting for them.
It's a long way to San Antonio
and Mrs. Bond doesn’t Want to get
left.
Citizens who might know the
Young family are requested to con
tact Mrs. Bond. She’s right much

forces, referred his White House critic today to Francis
Cardinal Spellman and Bernard Baruch for their opin
ions.

He signed up for aviation training i
during World War II and served

(Continued From Page One)
' j vulgar language and vicious at
tacks upon Eisenhower.
| One experienced campaigner said
he felt sure that Truman was
" hurting Stevenson, not so much
by taking votes away from him
’ as by gaining votes for Eisenhow- .
er. This man was fair enough to j
say that Stevenson could not be
held accountable for Truman's i
statements, and any more than
Eisenhower can be held fully ac
countable for McCarthy’s.
His idea that nobody will vote
against Stevenson because of Tru- j
' man, but that some will vote for
. Eisenhower as a protest against un
justified attacks upon his integ
rity. * '
STRENGTHENING POSITIONS
Among these numerous express- j
i ions of disgust and contempt for
j below-the-belt campaigning have I
been a good many statements sue- j
gesting that Senator Willis Smith ,
and Governor-nominate William |
Umstead are strengthening their
future positions by their present
attitudes.
Smith has consistently refused
to take any part in a campaign
of “vituputation and vinification"
I and Umstead was quick to call the
i hand of The News & Observer
which inaccurately and Unfairly
reported him as having called
Democrats who vote for Eisenhower
political fakes, and Eisenhower
himself a puppet of Taft.
Both Smith and Umstead are j
supporting the full Democratic tic
ket, from top to bottom.
Umstead has emphasized Eisen
hower’s lack of training and ex
perience in civil government, as j
contrasted with Stevenson’s excell
ent record in that field, but he
has said nothing that would re- !
fleet upon the character or in
! tegrity of either the general or
any citizen who votes for him. On
the contrary he has repeated'v j
warned against trying to “read anv |
Democrat out of the party.” Both
Smith and Umstead have empha- !
sized the positive virtues of the j
party and its candidates instead
jof tearing down anybody else.
Many people believe that when
the heat of the campaign is over
this attitude will be appreciated.

with Mr. Truman’s denial in a
speciol statement Monday night
that he had ever had called
Eisenhower anti-Semitic or anti-
Catholic.
The President, in the same state
ment. however, again criticize*)
Eisenhower for endorsing RepublM
j can senators who had helped over
ride his veto of the McCarxan im
migration bill. Last Friday Mr.
Truman, ur a statement to the Na
tional Jewish Welfare Beard, said
Eisenhower had become the cap
tive of these . senators.
CALLS IT PLAIN LIE
Eisenhower told his Providence
audience the Democrats had lied
and overstepped themselves on tlie
racial and religious questions, ..
"Ladies and gentlemen. I leave
the answers to those to my good
friends, Cardinal Spellman. Rabbi
Abba Hillel Silver, and Bernard
Baruch." Eisenhower said. "Al
ready they have established those
stories for the falsehoods that they
are.”
Eisenhower departed from this
theme Monday night at Worcester,
Mass., to give his definition of the
word “crusade;” which he has used
repeatedly to describe the nature
of his campaign. f'
"Our campaign is a constructive,
progressive crusade to liberate the
American people from the shackles
of expensive corruption and waste,
from the Straitjacket of inflation
and taxes, and from the terrifying
shadow of wa- that a vacillating
stop-and-go foreism policy has cast
upon us,” he said.
