Atkinson Honors
51-Year Servant
Monday Is Set Aside
for Physician
ATKINSON—The venerable Dr.
William James Douglas, dean of
north-central Nebraska physicians
* and surgeons. Monday was hon
ored by a grateful community,
• which he has served over 51
years.
A solemn high mass at the
doctor’s church—St. Joseph’s —
opened the special day. Open
house followed at Doctor Douglas’
offices where he greeted scores
of persons whose health he has
safeguarded down through the
years.
There was a parade in the af
ternoon and 225 persons attended
a banquet in the evening in the
Knights of Columbus hall.
Taking part in the celebration
were many of the 2,400 persons
• Doctor Douglas welcomed into
the world. Some of the “babies”
are now grandparents.
“For 51 years Dr. Douglas has
been working and fighting for all
that is good for this community,”
said Toastmaster Charles E.
Chace at the dinner program.
“We owe him a debt which we
will never be able to pay.”
“We have received many bene
fits from Doctor Douglas, aside
from his professional services,”
said Mayor Francis D. Lee.
The mayor praised Doctor
Douglas’s efforts for better roads
in this area.
Other speakers included Mrs.
Opal Keating, the oldest of Doc
tor Douglas’s “babies” present;
James Nightengale, who became
Doctor Douglas’s patient soon
after the doctor arrived in Atkin
son, and Newspaper Columnist
Blanche Spann Pease, listed in
the doctor’s baby record 43 years
ago.
A daughter, Mrs. David Adler
of Winnetka, 111., attended the
program. Mrs. Douglas died
several years ago.
Doctor Douglas came to Atkin
son after practicing for a year at
Tilden. A graduate of the Univer
sity of Nebraska medical college,
he served with the army medical
corps in World War I.
He served for 26 years as At
kipson’s mayor and has beeh a
leader in Red Cross activities. He
has served as post, county and
district commander of the Amer
ican Legion.

Ministerial Panel
to Be Heard —
The regular monthly meeting
of the O’Neill P-TA will be held
in the band room of the O’Neill
public school Monday evening,
November 3.
The topic will be the church
working in cooperation with the
school. This will be discussed by
a panel of ministers consisting of
Rev. Wallace Smith, Rev. Wayne
A. Hall, Rev. R. W. Olson. Rev.
Melvin Grosenbach, Rev. Samuel
Lee and Rev. John Thomas.
This panel discussion should
prove to be very interesting, a
spokesman said.
Rubinoff, the internationally
famed violinist, visited O’Neill
late Tuesday and early Wednes
day while the city slept. I
Accompanied by his famous
Stradivarious violin (reputedly
valued and insured up to one
hundred thousand dollars), his
pianist and a chauffer, the mae
stro was enroute from Wayne to
Winner, S. D., while on a concert
tour.
First tip that a “name” person
was in town was told by the
license plates on his big limousine
parked in front of a hotel. The
car bore Texas license plates with
simply a figure “O” in the mid
dle.
Manager M. J. Golden of the
Golden hotel relieved Night Clerk
Art Tibbetts about 7:30 Wednes
day morning. Golden, not know
ing his hotel had been host to a
well-known concert stage and
radio personality, spotted an
elaborate alligator - skin violin
case laying atop the registration
counter.
He asked Tibbetts:
“Who does that belong to—
Rubinoff?”
Before Tibbetts could answer
a thick-tongued stranger said,
“That’s right, Rubinoff!” And he
picked up the case and started to
waltz out of the hotel. «
The perplexed hotel man got
back on his feet and introduced
himself.
“What are you doing out in the
sticks?” asked Mr. Golden, an
O’Neill city councilman.
David Rubinoff, an emigrant
from Russia, explained he was on
tour and insisted he enjoyed
every moment of it. A colored
painting of a violin hangs in the
hotel lobby and the Mr. Rubin
off registered keen interest.
Golden drew out of the famous
musician some comment on his
radio experiences with Eddie
Cantor, Jack Benny, and others.
“Those comedians . . . they
make all the money in radio,” the
maestro lamented.
At the M & M cafe, where he
had breakfast, several waitresses
were aware of the identity of
their guest and engaged him in
conversation.
“I love these wide-open spaces”
h e said. “These plains and
ranches are wonderful,” he ex
claimed.
Late Tuesday night he dined
at the Town House.
An effort on the part of the
“Voice of The Frontier” special
events unit to induce Rubinoff to
appear on the Wednesday morn
ing program (WJAG, 9:45 a. m.)
failed to mesh with the artist’s
! travel plans.
He exhibited a giant watch
! that had been given to him by the
late Will Rogers. Rubinoff jok
ingly referred to Mr. Rogers as
“the greatest of all violinists.”
Of course, Rogers was a cowboy
philosopher and his violin play
ing ranked with the ordinary
hillbillies. However, Rubinoff and
Rogers had enjoyed a warm
friendship.
At Wayne he attracted good
sized crowds at tw^o concerts. He
spoke and played.

Burches Enjoy Good Health
Tuesday, October 28, was the
golden wedding day for Mr. and
Mrs. H. B. Burch of O’Neill.
Throughout the afternoon and
evening they held open-house at
their home on East Fremont
street and received numerous
relatives and friends.
It was an occasion to recount
the details concerning that wed
ding day—October 28, 1902.
Mr. Burch and Miss Mae
Butler exchanged nuptial vows
in a simple home ceremony at
Central City. Rev. D. C. Win
ship officiating.
Mr. Burch was born at Stew- j
artsvilie, Mo., about 20 miles east
of St. Joseph. His 4 bride was
bom and reared in Merrick coun
ty. Her parents had homesteaded
near Marquette.
The couple met in Merrick
county. You might say the
meeting was unintentionally ar
ranged by relatives.
The newlyweds resided about
18 months near Chapman, and 49
years ago they moved to Lynch
where Mr. Burch did some work
as a collector for half a year. Mr.
Burch earlier had attended Fre
mont Normal and when vacancies
developed in the Page and Cham
bers school system he took the
jobs.
Asked to compare the school
children of a half century ago
with those of today, Mr. Burch
offered this:
“There’s no great difference in
the students themselves. School
kids have been simply school kids
as long as I can remember. It’s
when they become grownups the
real changes take place.”
Asked what classes he taught,
he replied: “All of them!” Teach
ers weren’t specialized in those
days like they are now.
For 21 years Mr. Burch
manned a rural mail route out
of O'Neill. He spent a total of
36 years in rural mail delivery
work at O'Neill and Chambers.
Both Mr. Burch and his wife
enjoy “good health.” “We’ve
never had many doctor bills,”
mused Mrs. Burch. But Mrs.
Burch practically last her voice
during a brief illness Sunday.
Voice or no voice, she thoroughly
enjoyed the golden wedding day.
The Burches were seated at a
highly-decorated dining room ta
ble adorned with flowers, gifts,
cards and wedding cakes when
they posed for The Frontier
photographer.
The tablespread was of a gold
en hue and the erysanthemums,
hardy type, were predominately
gold. Wedding cakes were baked
by Mrs. Warren Wulf and Miss
Mabel Perkins, both of Ains
worth.
The Burches became the par
ents of one son—Howard. He
died in 1939 at the age of 34.
The couple has lived in retire
ment here the past several years.
Among out-of-town guests were
Mr. and Mrs. Warren Wulf, Wal
ter Wulf, Miss Mabel Perkins and
Mrs. George Madison and daugh
ter. Mary, all of Ainsworth;
Bassett; Rev. and Mrs. O. A.
Fortune, Gene Fortune and son,
Ricky, all of Genoa, and Mrs.
Wendell Townsend of Ainsworth.

Heavy Holt
Voting Is
Forecast
Over 10,000 Ballots
Printed for Next
Tuesday’s Election
Holt countyans will trek to the
polls—very possibly in record
numbers—next Tuesday, Novem
ber 4.
Interest has mounted steadily
as the presidential campaign—
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower ver
sus Gov. Adlai E. Stevenacm—
grinds to almost a blasphemous,
finish.
Over 10 thousand ballots have
been printed by The Frontier's
commercial printing department
for the 1952 presidential election
—which probably will be record
ed in the history books as one at ■
the titantic vote-getting struggles
of all time—certainly the costli
est.
There are no local issues con
fronting Holt voters. But local
issues aren't needed to stimu
late interest in this one.
•
Ike dnd Adlai, reinforced by
fellows like Sens. Robert Taft, Jo
seph McCarthy, President Harry
S. Truman and Estes Kefauvca
are in heated battle.
All voting places In the county
will be the same as usual.
In O’Neill, Grattan township
and First ward’voters will use the
courthouse basement; Second
ward, A. Marcell us garage; Third
ward, town hall.
There are two races in county
affairs in a three-way battle for
county supervisor in the Second
district. Kenneth Waring, was was*
appointed by the board last
spring to fill a vacancy created by
the resignation of Axel Borg, is a
petition candidate for election.
Republican victor in the primary
was Roger Rosenkrans; democrat,
George D. Hansen.
There is a nonpolitical struggle
between Louis W. Reimer, incum
bent county judge and Ralph H.
Walker, the challenger.
Above the county level is the
race between State Sen. Frank
Nelson, incumbent, who is op
: posed by Harry Copeland of Rock
i county. Nelson has come to be
regarded as one of the ablest leg
islators in the unicameral.
Robert B. Crosby, republican*
and Waller R. Raecke, democrat,
heading their respective state
slates, are meriting more than
usual interest in their ms
paigns.
Nebraska, traditionally a re
publican stronghold, is expected
to go overboard in a big way few

lican ticket rolling along hand-in- •
hand. (See thumbnail sketch an
state candidates on page 2.)
Six amendments will confront
the voters. (Official publication
of the amendments may be stud
ied on page 2.)
Men and women in the armed
forces, abroad and elsewhere in
the U. S., have created an un

tee ballots at the Holt county
clerk’s office. More than 150 ab
