Inducts Big Class
Disability Certificate
Changes Are Cited
A large class of new members
was initiated at a meeting of
John White Post 779, Veterans

Tuesday, Feb. 17.
The ceremonies were conducted
under the supervision of Post

Commander Edward Rounsley de-
livered the welcoming address to
the new members, and stressed
the importance of sharing in the
progress and responsibility of the
Veterans of Foreign Wars as an
organization.
A buffet luncheon was served
immediately after the induction
of the new members. Music was
furnished by Joe Blake's Orch-
estra.
Service Officer Albert L. Hal-
uska wishes to point out that
under existing regulations, a dis-
ability certificate issued by the
Veterans Administration on or
after July 1, 1933, to World War
I veterans, or to World War II
veterans which shows certain
chronic disabilities or injuries re-
ceived in action, is good indefin-
itely as proof for granting 10-
point preference under Civil Ser-
vice.
The Service Officer of the local
VFW Post has been appointed
Jurat Officer under Act 173 of
the 1945 session of the Legisla-
ture and now is authorized to

Stoltz, Greenwood Chapter
Red Cross Fund Drive Heads
Two prominent North Cambria
men have been named branch
campaign chairmen for the Am-
erican Red Cross fund-raising
drive in this area, which will be
from now until Mar. 14..
HARRY O. STOLTZ
They are Harry O. Stoltz, Pat-
ton, campaign chairman for the
Clearfield Branch of the Cambria
Co. Chapter, which takes in Pat-
ton and all the towns in the Ash-
ville - Flinton area, and Ralph
Greenwood, campaign chairman
of the Susquehanna Branch, tak-
ing in the Carrolltown-Nicktown-
Barnesboro district.
The total county quota for +his
year has been set at $85,000, of
which the Clearfield Branch’s
share is $2,700. The Susquehanna
Branch has been called upon to |
furnish $3,800.
Mr. Stoltz, who is the owner
of the local Stoltz Motor Co., has
resided in Patton since 1923. He
is widely-known throughout this
section, and is a member of the
Patton Chamber of Commerce,
Aerie 1244, Fraternal Order of
Eagles, and the Walter McCoy
Post, American Legion.
Mr. Stoltz has been active in
many community endeavors.
Ralph Greenwood is a native of
Barnesboro and operates the
Dairy Nook there. He also is as-
sociated with the Chas. F. Pitt
Co. of Patton and Barnesboro and
has been secretary-treasurer of
the Barnesboro Stadium Commit-
tee since its inception.
In addition, he was branch
campaign chairman for the Sus-
quehanna Branch in 1946.
Both Mr. Stoltz and Mr. Green-
wood already have lined up many
of their workers in order to be-
gin fund solicitation as soon as
possible.
The Red Cross functions in the
county as the Cambria Co. Chap-
ter. Although headquarters are in
Johnstown, each branch has its
own Red Cross office—Clearfield
Branch’s being in the First Na-
tional Bank BIldg., Patton, and
Susquehanna Branch’s being in
Barnesboro.
During the fund raising drives,
branches conduct their own fund
campaigns to meet their share of
the needs of the county-wide bud-
get. Give generously!
Basil O’Connor, chairman of
the National Central Committee
of the American Red Cross, will
visit the county Wednesday of
next week to assist the drive.

Crack Pennsy Train Wrecks Near Gallitzin
Tuesday; 24 Lives Lostud20 More Injured
Undescribable Horror
Follows in Wake of
Disaster of Red Arrow
Indescribable horror was the
scene early on Tuesday morning
| of this week within a few airline |
miles of our own community when
the luxurious Pennsylvania Rail-
road passenger train, The Red Ar-
row, left the tracke while east
bound, about a mile and a half east
of the portal to the Gallitzin tun-
nel, claiming up until this time the
lives of 24 people, and injuring 120
more, some of whom probably will
die.

two heavy locomotives shot off the
track at Bennington curve, scene |

1 od I 50-f mbank- | 00
plunged down a 150-foot emban | body was identified Tuesday even-
es along. The accident occurred at
3:25 a. m.
Railroad officials so far have
declined to comment on the cause
of the wreck, but state that a thor-
ough investigation is under way.
In a matter of seconds the lux-
urious pullman train was turned]
into a mass of twisted debris. The
occupants were dead, injured, and
many hopelessly trapped in the
wreckage, requiring the work of
frantic rescuers throughout Tues-
day to remove all the injured and
the bodies.
The dead, some of whom remain
unidentified, came from all over
the eastern part of the country,
as did the injured. In the North
of Cambria County, a Patton
young man, Fred Solomon, and a
tormer Bakerton woman and her
child were listed as injured, and
the mother-in-law of the woman
was killed. Several Altoona resi-
dents were either killed or injur-
ed. Among the listed dead is Phil-
ip J. Leiden, mail clerk of Altoona
—a native of Northern Cambria
county.
One of the engineers and both
firemen on the locomotives were
killed. Boilers of the engines did
not explode and fire did not fol-
low the crash. The tracks for one-
half mile were torn up and strewn
with coach seats. The scene of the
accident is not accessible by road
and the injured had to be removed
to Altoona hospitals by rail. Blood
plasma was flown to the scene
from Washington, D. C. and Har-
risburg.
Rescuers were forced to use ace-
tylene torches to burn through the
mass of twisted steel to reach the
trapped injured and dead. Many of
the survivors did heroic work at
helping their less fortunate fellow-
travelers imngediately after the
disaster. The entire story cannot
be chronicled.
Altoona’s two hospitals were
crammed to capacity. Many were
discharged after receiving dispen-
sary treatment. Many of those
trapped in the three Pullman cars
hurled over the steep slope died in
their berths.
The locomotives left the tracks
with such force that both appar-
ently turned around in mid-air or
were swung around when they
crashed down the side of the steep
slope.

15th District Coal Production
Drops 214,718
Coal production in the 15th bi-
tuminous district dropped 214,718
tons last year from 1945. This was
disclosed in the annual report last
Saturday by Inspector Dennis J.
Keenan, of Barnesboro.
The tonnage of deep mines fell |
off 173,078, while that of stripping |
operations was down 41,640. The
decrease was attributed mostly
to the two major coal strikes in
1946. Some tonnage also was lost
as a result of the shortage of rail-
road cars at a few mines.
The district mined 3,047,056 tons
last year in comparison to 3,261,-
764 tons in 1945. Deep mine pro-
duction last year was 2,462,208
tons and stripping operations pro-
duced 584,838 tons.
Improvement was noted in the
district's accident record. There
were three fatalities last year in
contrast to five in 1945. Production
per fatal accident in 1946 was 1,-
015,682 tons. The tonnage for each
fatality in 1945 was 652,352.
A total of 49 serious accidents
were noted last year, a drop of one
from 1945. There were 265 minor
mishaps, a decrease of 46 from the
previous year.
Statistics compiled by Inspector
Keenan showed the average num-
ber of tons produced during 1946
per pick miner was 984. The aver-
age tons per machine miner was
1,272; mechanical miner, 2,219, and
strip miner, 2,249. The average per
person in the isdustry was 1,035
tons.
A total of 2,943 persons were |
employed in 1947. This is an incre- |
ase of 347 over the preceding year, |
The inspector said improvements |

Famous Hypnotist
Will Entertain at
Local Eagles’ Home
Gerald M. P. Fitzgibbon
Coming February 28
Hpnotism, one of the ancient and
still baffling sciences, will be un-
folded in all its mystic phases in
the Eagles’ Home, Patton, on Fri-
day evening, Feb, 28, starting at
7:30 P, M.,, and the entertainment
will be free to Eagle members and
their friends.
The two-hour, fast moving show
featuring Prof. Whiz, one of the
world’s best hypnotists, will in-
clude demonstrations of telepathy
and a climax of post-hypnotic sug-
gestions.
“Prof. Whiz" who is private life
is known as Gerald M. P. Fitz-
gibbon, is widely known to medi-
cal scientists and to students of
occult arts. In over 30 years of
professional appearances, he has
hypnotized more than 30,000 per-
sons, all volunteers, from his au-
diences.
“PROFESSOR WHIZ”
In 1927 Prof. Whiz startled sci-
entific circles when he hypnotiz-
ed four persons simultaneously by
| radio from a studio 200 miles dis-
tant in Springfield, Mass. Prior
to that he had amazed physicians
and magicians, when he recorded
a phonograph record that hypno-
tized listeners through means of
his voice alone.
The show is not only mystifying
but it humorous and educational.
Under Prof. Whiz’'s amazing pow-
er, volunteer subjects will step out
of character and will perform
feats that will astound the audi-
ence.
The most remarkable feature of
hypnotism is that when subjects
return to normal they sustain no
after effects. Quite the contrary,
records indicate that many sub-
jects suffering complexes of one
or another discover later they
have completely disappeared.
Prof. Whiz, in addition to his
hypnotic entertainment, delivers
an interesting lecture on psycholo-
gy and physical culture, subjects
on which he has written numerous
books. In his youth he was Na-
tional A. A, U. Cross Country
Champion and once made a rec-
ord run of 114 miles in 24 hours.
Joining with the Patton Aerie,
No. 1244, Fraternal Order Eagles
in sponsoring the show, is the R.
M. Hollingshead Corp., Camden,

tomotive products.

State Police Say:
Know your way around the
curves. The proper way to take
a curve is to slow up before you
come into it and accelerate after
you have passed the center. Keep
your foot on the accelerator all
the way around. Stay in the
right-hand lane and always be
prepared to “hit the dirt” in the
the unexpected happens.
Remember, the time to use your
brake is BEFORE you hit the
i curve!
