Erie approves church bingo plan as city cleanups continue
Mayor Tom Flatley authorized church bingo games to resume in February if fully for charity. A Council of Churches committee pledged to help keep Erie clean and fight racketeers, with seven children and twenty one grandchildren cited as personal motive. Bingo at the Lore Auditorium will run four nights weekly, under former Perry Club operator oversight. The gathering featured Lincoln profiles urging vigilance as America stays free.

Egypt opposes British appeal to four nations
Egypt warned on January 16 that if the United States France the Netherlands or Norway send warships into Egyptian territorial waters to keep Suez Canal traffic open it would be an act of aggression. Britain had asked these nations to join in guarding the canal and Egyptian spokesman Dr Mahmoud Azmy Hey said sending ships would violate the 1888 Suez Canal Convention and could lead to a UN appeal. He added that sending technical aid pilots or dockers would be an unfriendly act. Two killed in crash on Pennsylvania Turnpike.
