He is | employed as a chemist in St. Agnes’ | Hospital, White Plains, of which his {bride is a graduate nurse. | A wedding dinner was served at the | Baker home Sunday. | ook ok oho Boy Scouts put up 1,700,000. Almost immediately the Office of Civilian Defense requested the aid of Boy Scouts of America in helping to collect scrap aluminum for airplane construction. Boy Scouts all over the Nation collected 10 million pounds of aluminum—eighty per cent of all that was collected. Then came the appeal to collect waste paper. Thousands of tons of waste paper have been gathered by them already, and their quest con- tinues. As in the last World War the Boy Scouts are doing those things of which they are capable to help the home front in its fight for the demo- cratic way of life. Scouting prepares boys for many ‘good turns” and Am- erica has learned through war and peace a Boy Scout is dependable. Winter Sports Said Gaining Popularity in Keystone State Reports received in the State De- partment of Commerce from Pennsyl- | vania winter resorts indicate snow | sports are rapidly gaining in popular- | its and that many persons seem to be | sudenly “discovering” the fun invol- ved. Hotels and inns situated in sport regions report that their registers contain names of many new visitors as well as those of ‘‘dyed-in-the-wool fans” who return year after year to get relaxation and exercise. The Department of Commerce re- ceives hundreds of inquiries from the would-be skiers who want to know where to go for winter activities. “Winter Sports in Pennsylvania,” a compilation of location, accomodation and facilities at Pennsylvania resorts, is available free of charge from the Department. Pennsylvania’s more than twenty winter sports regions are spread out all over the state and particularly in the east and northeast, central, nor- thwest and southwest. JOHN CASTEL REELECTED John Castel was reelected check- weighman at the No. 4 mine of the Johnstown Coal & Coke Company for the first half of the present year. Geo. Mellon and Frank Gelmini were re- | named at the No. 2 mine and Conrad Lenne was renamed at No. 6 mine. Repair Orders Most parts of farm machinery have a serial number. If the part has a number and it is still legible is should accompany the repair order. In addi- tion the serial numbers of the adja- cent parts should accompany the or- | | purpose of starting the large pro- gram of giving instruction to adults. Laymen will register at 3 p. m. in the main building at the college and at 3:30 o'clock Bishop Guilfoyle will make the address of welcome and will outline the purpose of the program. Addresses by Bishop Kelly and Dr. | Wyland will feature afternoon ses- sion. The evening program calls for a group meeting of the Catholic men under the direction of Boy Scout of- ficials. At least 40 new troops are planned for Catholic parishes in the territory served by the Admiral Robert E. Council. CARMELITES FACE MONASTERY LOSS BECAUSE OF LOANS Forclosure Sale May Be Forced Due to Unpaid ‘Schwab Debts of Honor’ Due to the insolvency of the es- tate of the late Charles M. Schwab, the monastery of St. Therese of Lis- ieux, Loretto, may be sold at fore- closure sale. This was revealed when Attorney Randolph Myers, Ebensburg, filed | suit in the office of Prothonotary J. L. Hite to have 10 shares of prefer- red stock of the Penn-Cress Ice | Cream Company transferred from Mr. | Schwab, in whose name the securi- | ties were registered, into the hands |of the monastery. The Charles M. | Schwab estate, of which the First | National Bank of Ebensburg is ancil- | lary administrator, is also made a de- | fendant in the suit together with the |ice cream company. | The late steel magnate, it is charg- | ed, had the monastery corporation go jon 20 notes totaling $20,000 for him. | The notes, according to the bill of | complaint filed in the suit, were sign- |ed by a monastery official merely as an accomodation to Mr. Schwab, who, it is charged, represented to the mon- astery ‘that the use of the name of the monastery would be temporary accomodation and that he (Mr. Sch- wab) would pay the full amount of the obligation during his lifetime or provide for the payment thereof in the event of his death.” When the monastery official agreed to indorse the notes as an accomoda- tion, Mr. Schwab, it is alleged, exe- cuted in blank an assignment of 150 shares of the preferred stock of the PAGE FIVE No Priorities on Used Cars, Get Yours Now!
