Tot Crosses Atlantic Alone
Sgt. Robert Kenny, 23, of Atkinson swept his adopted 4-year
old daughter, Mary Jean, into his arms Friday morning at Chicago,
J11., after the little girl had crossed the Atlantic by airliner, accom
panied only by a hostess. The story began when Sergeant Kenny
met and married Leon Hardt in Berlin, Germany. The Atkinson
soldier returned to the U S. in August, Mrs. Kenny crossed in Oc
tober, but getting a visa for the adopted girl was a different mat
ter. Red tape finally cleared, Mary Jean, who had stayed behind
with friends, crossed alone. The circle around the Christmas tree
was made complete with the little tot’s arrival in Atkinson Christ
mas eve. Sergeant Kenny is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Dwight Kenny
of Atkinson. Day after Christmas he, his wife and Mary Jean set
out by auto for Ft. Bevan, Mass., where Sergeant Kenny will be
stationed.

Leading O’Neill merchants
rnce again will shower the first
torn Holt county baby in the new
year.
Thus, the $64 dollar question
becomes: Who’ll be number one
ir. 1955?
Like in previous years, the
baby derby will get underway at
the stroke of midnight, simul
taneously with the arrival of the
new year. To be eligible to cash
in on the rich gift shower, the
baby must be born within the
boundaries of Holt county, and a
blank (see page 11) must be
fjlled-in by the proud parents
and forwarded to the First Baby
Editor, The Frontier, O’Neill.
Official winner will be pro
’ Timed in the columns of The
Frontier. “Voice of The Fron
tier” radio programs will keep
the public posted on progress of
the derby.
With a bit of luck the new
year’s morning program (WJAG,
780 k.c., 9:45 a.m.) might have
seme derby news.
Occasionally in the past the
competition has been very keen
with a matter of only a few hours
separating the winner from the
contenders. However, one year—
1951—the stork dallied until Jan
uary 7 to drop off the champ.

7,380 Auto Tax
Notices in Mail
Treasurer Adopts
9 to 4 Schedule
Holt County Assessor W. F.
Wefso said Wednesday his office
was mailing 7,300 tax notices to
owners of motor vehicles. The
owners, in applying to the coun
ty treasurer for their 1955 plates,
must send all three copies of their
tax notices, one being for the mo
tor vehicle owner, one for the
county treasurer, and one for the
assessor.
It was pointed out the process
of issuing new plates can be
speeded if recipients of the no
tices are careful in opening the
envelopes so that the notices are
not damaged. Damage to even
one of the notices requires prep
aration of a new set.
They should be turned in un
signed, it was further explained.
Meanwhile, County Treasurer
J. Ed Hancock said the doors of his
office will be opened at 9 a.m.,
and will remain open through the
noon hour, closing at 4 p.m. He
said his staff would be busy
through January prior to 9 a.m.,
and after 4 p.m., processing mail
requests for plates. Hancock said
the temporary 9 to 4 arrangement
would continue through January.
As usual, registration certifi
cates must be submitted together
with the three notices. If plates
are to be mailed, 23 cents should
be added for postage.

met in Omaha on Wednesday,
December 22, by his parents, Mr.
and Mrs. Ed Uiban.
After a 25-day furlough, Cor
poral Bollwitt will report to Fa
Sheridan, 111., where he will re
ceive his discharge.
CANDLELIGHT RITE
EWING— An impressive can
dlelight service was held Christ
mas eve at the United Presbyteri
an church, conducted by the pas
tor, Rev. W. J. Bomer, assisted by
James Conway, a student at the
Conservative Baptist Theological
seminary at Denver, Colo.
Mr. and Mrs. Ray Verzal and
Jerry of Atkinson were Christmas
dinner guests of her parents, Mr. i
and Mrs. E. F. Quinn.
Soon the 1955 march of dimes
drive will get underway.
Funds for fighting polio and for
aiding sufferers are badly need
ed—the National Foundation and
many local chapters being in
grim financial condition.
Fresh in the minds of Holt and
Boyd countyans is the case of
Miss Barbara Brunckhorst, 22,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest
Brunckhorst of Inman.
She became ill with polio
while teaching in the Spencer
high school. She was stricken
about two weeks after the 1954
’55 term began.
On September 13 she was mov
ed to the Sioux Valley hospital,
Sioux Falls, S.D., where she was
n an u'hn lung constantly for
nine eridless weeks.
Improvement, though slow in
appearing, finally was noticed and
octors ordered the use of the
lung to be “tapered off.” At pres
ent she is out of the lung com
pletely. Last week, when her par
ents yisited her in the hospital,
they found her spirits “very
good” and report their daughter
is on the road to recovery. She
now has the use of her hands, en
abling her to even write a few
litters.
Miss Brunckhorst is now in
the second phase of treatment —
physical therapy.
Polio is a tragic killer in
many instances, leaves others
helpless, and, thanks to re
search, new medicines and
treatments some victims, like
Miss Brunckhorst, are more for
tunate.
One or two cases within a
county are capable Oj. “breaking
the treasury” for the local polio
chapters. Last year, at the na
tional level, an emergency march
of dimes was needed to meet the
epidemic.
Noma F. Hall of Stuart is
chairman of the Holt dimes drive,
which is scheduled for next
month.

More Delay
Hiway 281
Relocation
Commission Seeks an
‘Interpretation’ from
Gov.-Elect Anderson
The Nebraska highway advis
ory commission, meeting Tuesday
in Lincoln, once again deferred
taking a stand on the proposed
relocation of U.S. highway 281,
linking the junction with state
highway 12, in Boyd county, and
the Nebraska-South Dakota state
line.
For several months the mat
ter, along with other highway
relocation problems, was sched
uled several times to be passed
upon — but something always
comes along to delay the ques
i tion.
Tuesday, the commission tabled
five controversies, including
highway 281 relocation in Boyd
county, the proposed South Oma
ha access road, a U.S. highway 30
! bypass around North Platte, state
highway 12 in Cedar county, and
slate highway 35 between Wayne
and Emerson.
The commission adopted a res
olution addressed to Gov.-Elect
Victor Anderson, asking the new
governor for his interpretation of
the powers and authority of the
1 •A-year-oid highway advisory
commission. The 1953 law estab
lished the seven commissioners
to advise the state engineer on
broad policies. Governor - Elect
Anderson says he wants to wait
and see what the 1955 legislature,
convening in just a few days,
does about the powers of the com
mission.
Meanwhile, State Highway En
gineer L. N. Ress announced the
present location of U.S. 281, west
cf Spencer, would not be aban
doned but, rather, will become a
state highway.
Don Hanna, jr., of Biownlee is
commissioner in this district 0
There are four proposed locations
for highway 281 north from the
highway 12 junction.
