Your Town Rotary Meet Highlights City Governance
Mayor Jack Gardner told Rotary members that Hope is solvent and city government has grown under nine years of a city manager system. He praised the Water and Light Commission and the Fire Police and Recreation Departments urging citizen meetings with the council and support for street maintenance. Roy Anderson arranged the program and visiting Rotarians included William P. Rock and Jim Yoder along with guests from Cleveland and Archbold. A two car collision near Kansas led to the death of Agnes Hurt and injuries to James Hurt. Arkansas DA Vets commander H Ross Wisely was elected with Lloyd Eisner and W Duncan as senior and junior vice commanders.

Braves seek Wisconsin Supreme Court review on return order
Attorneys pressed for time as Wisconsin Supreme Court may review Circuit Judge Elmer Roller’s ruling ordering the Atlanta Braves to return to Milwaukee. The case centers on antitrust claims and a possible contempt citation if the court spurns the plea, with the NL resisting expansion or return and planning an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court. In Paris, three men were sentenced for the 1944 kidnap of Mrs. Marcel Dassault, with terms up to 20 years.
