North Canton Residents Pledge $2,741
To United Fund; Is Only 33% Of Goal
Paul Basner reported Tuesday October 28 that North
Canton residents have given $2,741.61 to the United Fund
during: the current drive. This represents 33 percent iof
the  community's goal.
Apathy Must Be Met
Asked for comment on the "drubbing" that Republican candidates have been said to be in for, President
Eisenhower responded at considerable length, and with
fervor.
He had heard reports of apathy, he said, and to him
they are "incomprehensible." he described his administration as "dedicated to moderate government, avoiding extremes from one side to the other, staying on the midd*e
of the road and staying out of the gutters". The record,
he thought, had been "remarkably good," and he would
expect enthusiasm for "perpetuating that kind of effort
through the medium of elections".
The President went on to say that analysis of recent
elections showed that, even in Maine, his party would
have won all contests if registered Republicans had voted
"But they didn't," he said. "They stayed away."
Mr. Eisenhower foresaw the loss of "moderate"
government and our free enterprise system "umess rve-
publicans . . .are going to help with their time, their
effort, their brains and money." But he did not mention
the pie-in-the-sky, globalistic, "New Republicanism"
wrougt in the image of the Raoseveltian New Deal, and
which has so disastrously divided the Grand Old Party.
In support of the President's call-to-arms, Republican
National Chairman Meade Alcorn called for a GOP campaign that would dramatize the "frightening alternative"
to a Republican victory. This he envisioned as an 86th
•Congress "dominated by the left-wingers o,n the Northern
and western Democrat tickets" who would "spend' the
next two years endangering this country by pressing their
well-financed drive for Reuther socialism and ADA appeasement in our foreign policy".
Mr. Alcorn's fears are realistic and well-founded. But
to win his fight, he will have to rally, at this eleventh
hour, a RIGHTIST Republican host — which can only be
done by effective and convincing disavowal of that "New
Republicanism."
A Place For Hope
Cynicism about the chances for a really meaningful
international disarmament program is the rule rather than
the exception. Disillusionment is widespread. There are
good reasons for this attitude. Who can be optimistic about
the prospects for disarmament when millions stand armed
day and night, when every national horizon bristles with
the instruments of destruction? Groundless optimism is
simply jiot justified by the hard facts of-power politics.
Does it follow that we should abandon efforts to make
a start at worm disarmament, ,or even that tnese eliorts
need oniy be carried on in a nalf-nearted way because
tney give so littie promise V This does not at ail toiiow.
Tne reasons for seeKing disarmament are as compelling
as 'ever in. history, tne cnance iof achieving it no worse
than in the past.
Two of these reasons are enough to mention here.
The first is economic. Though it has become trite to
speak of all the good, constructive things that could be
done with the billions now drained otf. for .arms and
armies, nevertheless that is the' case. The 'second compelling reason, one that virtually commands disarmament
if nfankind is to survive, is the awful* nature ,of the
weapons  now  being  stockpiled.
In a sense, the very fact that such weapons have
in them the power to destroy society gives reason to
think that the nations will dome at, last to'gradual disarmament. No Polly anna optimism is justified, but hope is
justified. We do that hope an evil turn if we sink back
into a barren cynicism.
Fun Without Mischief
A long time ago, it was thought that all sorts of
mischievous spirits walked abroad on Halloween. There
is a faint echo in this belief even in our day, when children cavort'in bizarre costumes intended to chill the beholder.
But Halloween has also been — in modern times,
at least, a night for gaiety as well as mischief. As recently
as a generation ago, the merrymaking and mischief were
At Tuesday's report meeting,
.he second of the drive, volun-
eer workers in the Greater
Canton area announced receipt
>f $667,871.34 or 72 per cent of
the $925,415 goal. The campaign
jnds  Thursday,   October   30.
Thirty-two health and welfare
agencies are supported by the
Greater Canton United Fund. A
report of 10 of the Fund's agencies reveals that 311 families
in the North Canton area were
served during 1957 at a cost
of ?15,569.
Ralph Shipley, general chairman of the drive, stressed that
the report contained cost figures
from only 10 of the 32 agencies
and did not include the many
youth and general service organizations which also serve the
community.
North Canton has 'been a
member of the United Fund
team from the time the Fund
was started, Mr. Shipley added.

ranged from such innocent fun as taking off garden gates
to wilder stunts that often caused injuries and property
damage. In many a town, Halloween was a night to nail
down  anything movable and keep  a sharp  eye  out for
prowlers.
Things have tamed down some, in recent years. Children have as much fun as they ever had, but smashing

Malone College
Forms Community
Oratorio Group
Members of all church choirs
in the community and other interested individuals have been
invited to participate in the presentation of Handel's "Messiah",
it has been announced by Professor Richard M. Elmer, chairman of (lie Division of Fine Arts
at  Malone College.
An oratorio society is being
formed under the sponsorship
of Malone College and its musical faculty to present sacred
oratorios and cantatas at regular intervals. Membership is
open to anyone who has previously sung tho "Messiah" or
wishes to audition for membership. Rehearsal accomodations
limit membership to 75. New
members will be accepted until
November 4 or until the quota
of  75  is   reached.
'Professor Elmer, who will direct the group in the singing of
the "Messiah", announced that
rehearsals will be held each
Tuesday evening at 8 o'clock in
the college rehearsal room. The
group will present Handel's oratorio, "Messiah", early in December   in   Canton.

Y>'e trick or- treating' ior pennies,
nickels, and dimes to help the
Children's Fund provide medicine and food to, millions of
sick and hungry children all
over  the  world.
'Sponsored locally by the Community Christian Church and
nationally by the U. iS. Committee for UNICEF, this sharing of Halloween has become
a tradition to millions of American children ■ in more than
8,500 communities throughout
che nation.
Helping UNICEF means helping some of the 600,000,000 sick
and hungry children in the
world. Last year 2,000,000
American youngste'rs contributed over $1,000,000 , to UNICEF
for "all the world's children."
Transformed by the Children's Fund into life-saving medicine and food, each penny
meant five glasses of milk or
the vaccine to protect a child
from tuberculosis, and each
ickel, the penicillin to cure a
child from yaws, a crippling
tropical  disease.
UNICEF is also helping in a
ten year malaria eradication
program to completely rid the
world o£ this scourge. In addition, maternal ancl child welfare centers have been established where long range programs
of health and nutrition education are in operation. Here people learn how to prevent future
health disasters, as well as to
care  for  immediate  problems.
Each trick or treat coin more
than doubles Itself, because
UNICEF assistance means self-
help. Each country receiving aid
contributes an average o'f $2.00
in either money or services for
every dollar from the Children's
Fund.
'Participation in Trick or Treat
■for UNICEF means'a more productive life today/ and better
world tomorrow for millions of
children.

Dr. Hibbard To Speak
At Sr. Citizens Meeting
Dr. Robert Hibbard, minister
of The North Canton Faith 'Methodist Church, will be the
speaker at the North Canton
Senior Citizens monthly meeting Friday night at 7:30 p.m. in
the Community Building YMCA.
Dr. Hibbard will show colored
slides • of his trip through Europe and the Mid - East. The
Senior Citizen organization will
continue to meet every Thursday from 1 to 3 p.m. at the
Community Building YMCA for
a  recreational  program.
Those retired persons wishing
to join the Senior Citizen sewing project should contact the
Community  Building   YMCA.
Leather craft work will begin
shortly after the first of November lor senior citizens who are
interested   in   this   craft.
Willard G. Vogt is in charge
of the program for this Friday
evening.
According to the North Canton Board of Education, the
5750,000 figure is the 'minimum
for meeting requirements. County Auditor Joe Yoder estimates
that the issue would represent
1.4 mills per $1,000.00 of valuation, which is less than three
cents a day.
Included in the proposed expansion program are construction plans for a new 14-room
tion of 8 rooms to the present
6-room Orchard Hill Elementary School, and the addition of
a science laboratory to Hoover
High school.
The new '14-room structure
would be similar to the Orchard
Hill school in size and type, and
would probably be located on
the  north   side  of town.
'Modernization plans for the
Portage Street and •Greentown
Elementary schools, and North
Canton Junior High would also
be   included.
With the opening of the 1959
school year, more than 21)0 additional students will be entering the scools, which are already  operating   at  'capacity.
It was only through the School
Board's carefully planned maintenance programs that the District has been able to maintain
•"he usefulness of building which
date back as far as 1890.
A Citizen's Committee, directed by Co-Chairman John Burke
and Tom McDowell, assisted by
an Advisory Committee under
the Chairmanship of C. W. Studer, has been actively aiding
the Board of Eduction to inform voters of the urgency with
which the District needs the
new   school   bond   issue.
Citizens who attended open-
house in the school district during the week of October 20 viewed first-hand the inadequacy of
our present schools and the definite need for alleviation of the
school population problem,
which can only be accomplished through the passage of the
bonet  issue  on  November 4.

Blaine in 1936 when he saw an
empty church building on East
street.
After talking with others who
were interested, a group which
met at the home of Rev. ancl
Mrs. Blaine decided to purchase
the abandoned church building
and repair it. The building was
dedicated on  April 11,  1937.
In 1949, the church felt the
need for a full-time pastor, and
Rev. Blaine, sensing this need,
resigned 'and the congregation
