WASHINGTON (UP) The Civil
ian Conservation Corps will co-operate
with the American Red Cross this

missioned reserve officers now on duty

ing Examiners and 4,000,000 CCCJ ALBANY. N. V., July 8. (UP)

as instructors at the district school
held for enrolees. Enrolees who grad
uate from the district schools will
be assigned to lifeguard duty in thej
CCC camps as soon as they receive
their certificates. At least two CCC
senior lifeguards will be assigned to
each camp, McEntee said. He point
ed out that all outdoor swimming at
CCC camps is supervised.
The American Red Cross co-oper
ated with the CCC in the conduct of
lifesaving programs during the sum
mers of 1D35 and 1536. During
those years a total of G.C3G enrolees
were graduated as Red Cross life
guards. McEntee pointed out.
"Thanks to the co-operation of the
American Red Cross in the training
of lifeguards, the Civilian Conserva
tion Corps has been able to reduce
swimming accidents to a minimum."
McEntee said. "Because so many of
the boys entering the CCC camps
have never had the opportunity to
learn to swim, special precautions
have been taken at every camp to
insure that trained lifeguards are on
duty whenever enrolees go into the
water."
POLICE BATTLE CHILDREN
NEW YORK. July 10. (UP) Po
lice sought methods of coping with
bands of children roaming the streets
to seek relief from the heat by open
ing fire hydrants. Water officials
turned off hydrants and the pressure
was reduced and police called. The
children's answer was a sit-down
strike m doorway of the offices of
the city water department.

Robert F. Wagner, son of the sen
ator from New York, is the latest to
announce he will step out along po
litical paths charted by his father.
Young Wagner hopes to be the demo
cratic candidate for the assembly,
lower legislative house, from a New
York city district.
He has completed college and law
school and has taken his examin
ations for admis&ion to the state bar
If he wins the primary designation
and the election, young Wagner will
join a group of almost a dozen who
are carrying noted political names
into the second generation on Capitol
Hill here.
Wadsworth's Son in Assembly
Among the sons and relatives is
James J. Wadsworth. of Geneseo, who
now occupies the assembly seat of
his father, James W. Wadsworth, a
former speaker of the assembly and
now a member of congress. Young
Wadsworth, known as "Jerry" to dis
guish h!m from "Jim." is chair
man of the committee on relief and
social welfare.
It was 32 years ago this fall that
the voters of the lGth district of New
York county sent Robert F. Wagner,
a German immigrant, to the assembly
He served two other years before go
nig to the state senate for 10 years
in 190S. The state supreme court
a as next and in 192G he w as elected
to the V. S. senate. He was re-elected
in 1932.
Another member of the New York
delegation in congress. Hamilton

sents President Roosevelt's home dis
trict, was preceded by his father
Hamilton Fish, Sr., served a total of
13 years between 1S74 and 1S96

Corning Name Prominent
Present members of the legislature
wkose close relatives were active in
previous legislatures include Sen.
Erastus Corning, of Albany, whose
father. Edwin, was lieutenant-governor
and presiding officer of the
senate from 1926 to 1928.
As is customary fpr local members.
Corning was tailed upon to preside
at a perfunctory session of the sen
ate, early in January. Having been
elected in November, it was his first
time in the chair. Senate attaches
recalled it was exactly 10 years to
the day after his father first wielded
the senate gavel.
Broome county, which includes the
city of Binghamton and surrounding
area along the Pennsylvania border,
has produced at least three combin
ations involving close relatives.
Hill Follows Father
Assemblyman James Hill, a mem
ber in 1935, 193G and 1937, is the
nephew of a former state senator,
William H. Hill, now the republican
leader of the Southern Tier county.

sembly in 1898 and 1S99. His son,
Edward F., has served since. 1934.
Martin W. Deyo stepped ahead of
his father, Israel T. The elder Deyo
served four years in the assembly
from 1S90 to 1893.' Martin served in
the assembly in 1933 and 1934
and the next two years in the senate.
Assemblyman Laivrens Hamilton,
of Rockland county, a direct de
scendant of Alexander Hamilton, the
first Secretary of the Treasury, has

dered for July.
LINCOLN, July 10. (UP) A tem
porary reduction in tne old age as
sistance lor the month or July was
ordered today by the state assistance
committee, amounting to twenty per
cent.
"We urge recipients not to become
unduly alarmed" said Assistance Di

is finished it is impossible to find
funds to pay."

pletion may be only slight, no cuts in

PATENT SOUGHT ON FOOL
PROOF LID FOR HOLES
DUNCAN, Okla. (UP) A. P.
Burns and Harold Featherston plan
to patent a device that they believe
will put an end to people falling into
holes.
The invention, they said, would
protect holes from people as well as
people from holes.
The men call their invention
tego," from a Latin word implying
your safe; I'm protecting you."
Tego now is listed among the
patent pending group in Washing
ton. It wafe sent to the capital for
the government's approval more than
a month ago.
Tego bears the appearance of a
manhole cover with a box on the un
derside. The entire device is made of
steel. From the ends of the box two
pointed bars extend, regulated by the
turning of a lever on top of the
cover. The lever locks in place and
cannot be displaced.
After the hole has been dug for a
light pole and is awaiting the setting
of a pole, Tego is called into action.
Placed over the hole, with the box
on tne underside, tne bars dig into
the earth on either side of the hole
and anchor Tego securely until the
lever i3 turned.
"Covering holes always has been
a problem, said Burns, assistant
manager of the light and power com
pany here.
No matter what you use, the
cover usually skids off, and people
always are getting hurt falling into
holes. This will stop all of that."
The Plattsmouth Junior American
Legion baseball team suffered their
first defeat of the season Thursday
afternoon at Gretna when they drop
ped a 6 to 1 contest to the Sarpy
boys.
The game was scoreless until the
last of the third when Gretna made
four of their scores on three hits and
several errors that permitted the
scoring.
It was not until the seventh inning
that the Platters started to hit Sheef
effectively and to score their only
run of the game. Phillips was out on
a Ily to center, then Hayes, the Plat
ter receiver singled sharply to left
field and was able to tally when Don
Wall, the "Lou Gehrig" of the game
doubled. Wall died on base however
as Wiles and Jones were both whiffed.
Plattsmouth secured three hits off
Scheef while Gretna hit Wiles for
seven safe ones. Phillips showed well
in the fielding and Hayes and Wall
were the only ones to get in the hit
column.

FIND GOOD RESPONSE
The group of county assistance in
vestigators who are engaged in a
check of those receiving the old age
assistance, as well as that of depend
ent children and the blind, are very
busy the past several days in visit
ing over the county.
They have found the finest of co
operation from the beneficiaries of
the acts and also from the relatives
of the parties, giving all possible in
formation.
The group has found but few that
will have to have their status changed
and it is a very fine showing of the
thoroughness in which the original
review of the cases were made.
