Most Volunteers . . .
: Stuart, Nebr.
Upon reading The Frontier, I
noticed where five volunteers
left for the service last Thurs
day.. I believe much credit and
honor is due them. I also saw
where it said it was the largest
group of volunteers in a single
group since the outbreak of the
Korean war.
Have you forgotten our six
Stuart youths who volunteered
and left for military service Oc
tober 21, 1952? They were Jim
Batenhorst, Roland Shald, Ivo
Shald, Jerome Weber, Alfred
Stracke and James Chaney.
I thought you may be inter
ested to know that Private Bat
enhorst and Private Ivo Shald
are serving in Korea. Private
Stracke is in Germany. Private
R. Shald and Private Weber are
in Ft. Riley, Kans., and Private
Chaney in Camp Chaffee, Ark.
We are proud of our volunteers
also and hate to see them not
counted. I thought I would call
this mistake to your attention.
Thanking you very kindly,
A FRIEND AND
FRONTIER READER
(Editor’s note: Thanks for
the letter. The Frontier mis
understood Mrs. W. H. Harty,
chief clerk of the draft ooard.
She said last Thursday’s group
of volunteers—including Don
ald D. Kloppenborg of Fmmet,
Robert R. Pruden, Melvin L.
Pruden and Marvin D. Carl,
all of Ewing, and John Joe lihl
of O’Neill — was the second
largest group of volunteers to
enter the service through the
Holt draft board, not the larg
est. We are pleased to make
this correction.)
Miss Dailey Feted—
Mrs. Charles Lawrence was
hostess to a bridal shower given
in honor of Miss Betty Dailey,
Tuesday, June 30. Thirty guests
were present. Each guest gave
advice for a happy marriage in
terms of her own initials. Mrs.
Don Clyde took flash pictures as
the bride elect opened her gifts.
A three-tier chocolate cake top
ped by a miniature bride and
bridegroom was the table center
piece. Miss Bonney Lawrence and
Leona Niles assisted with the
gifts and serving of the lunch.
OBJECTORS FAIL
When the city council in special
session reviewed the “sufficiency”
af names on a petition circulated
by R. H. Parker, only six were
found to be valid remonstrances
in connection with the paving in
two street improvement dictricts.
Thus the council could not ac
cept the objections and will pro
ceed with plans to pave eight
blocks of streets in the four
square blocks adjoining the cen
ter of the city.
ADVERTISE FOR BIDS
The city council this week is
advertising for bids for O’Neill’s
new 40-thousand-dollar swimm
ing pool, which was favored by
voters in a special election April
10. If a low bid is accepted, the
:ontractor will be urged to pro
ceed with construction right away
in Ford’s park.
