Leaders of 44 Rotary Clubs
Comprising 158th District of
Rotary International.
A. C. HORROCKS
Dr. M. M. Rubright, president, and
the Rev. N. B. Emch, secretary, will
represent the Rotary club of North
Canton when the leaders of the forty-
four Rotary clubs, comprising the
158th District of Rotary International,
meet at their Annual District Assembly at Alliance, Ohio, August 8.
Other leaders in the local Rotary
Club who also plan to attend the Alliance meeting are Ervin Royer,
Thomas Denton and a number of
others.
The District Assembly is an annual
meeting of club officers and major
committee chairmen for the purpose
of planning Rotary activities in the
District for the coming year.
Particular interest is attached to the
158th District Assembly this year in
view of the fact that the Rotary International convention will be held in
Cleveland in June, 1939, at which 10,-
000 delegates representing clubs in
4800 cities all over the world are expected to attend.
The Alliance Assembly will close
with a dinner, at which Arthur C.
Horrocks of The Goodyear Tire &
Rubber company will speak on "New
Frontiers for Youth," work among
boys and young men being one of tho
community activities sponsored by Rotary clubs in the District.
THE ROTARY CLUB
Twenty-four members attended Rotary club meeting last Thursday evening at the Community Christian
church. Francis Hammond, new public school music director, was a guest
of the Rev. N. B. Emch and spoke
briefly of his plans for the coining
school year. He has been engaged to
address the club on Thursday evening,
August 11.
President M. M. Rubright introduced the main speaker for the evening, Lincoln Lippencott of St. Louis,
who gave a very forceful address on
"Safety" using as his theme: "Ro-
tary's Supply Power."
He spoke of the new movement
"Not Over 50" club that is doing a
great deal in reducing the number of
automobile fatalities. It is a movement sponsored by a number of insurance companies urging people driving automobiles to drive not over 50
miles an hour, claiming that speed is
the greatest cause of accidents on our
highways.- The speaker said: "You
will never reach 70 going 70" and asserted that he felt the time would
soon come when the Governors of the
states would enforce all drivers to
keep within 50 miles an hour.
A Community Picnic to be known as
W.  H.  Hoover  Day will be held at
Hoover camp Thursday, Aug. 18.
New Rotary Club
A new Rotary club was chartered
at Malvern, Ohio, on Monday evening,

To Pick Ten Boys
For Week-End
At West Creek
Selected On Basis Of Handcraft
Work, Boys Will Remain Over
Night. Stay-at-Home Camp
Meeting With Much Success.
Jack Coughlin, director of boys'
work at the Community Building, last-
night announced that 10 boys, who
have done the best work in handcraft
at the "Stay-at-Home" camp would
be taken on an overnight hike this
week-end.
The boys will hike to West Creek
Saturday where they will remain overnight, returning Sunday afternoon.
This hike will be under the direction
of Bill Stull and Wesley Liebtag.
Success of the "Camp-at-Home"
daytime camp for North Canton boys,
tried here for the first time, is definitely assured, through the attendance
of many boys anxious to learn handcraft.
Though the attendance is somewhot
spasmodic, there has been enough interest shown to warrant its continuance said Jack Coughlin, director of
boys' activities at the Community
Building, who, together with Jack
Zengler and Bill Stull, is supervising
the camp.
Ring-making is definitely the biggest attraction. For this work, a
cellulose material that can easily be
filed arid sandpapered, is used. Each
youngster is allowed to make it in
any style, shape or color he so desires and does all of his own work except for occasional help from the supervisors.
For those not interested in rings,
there is leatherwork, soap carving,
model airplanes, etc. A few who have
become    interested    in
Twenty-two members of the "Stay-
at-Home" camp spent Tuesday afternoon at the Akron airport, at which
place they were conducted on a tour
of the hangars and dock.
Arriving at the airport around 4:30
p.m. the boys went to the Administration   building   where   they   were
shown through the telegraphic room,
weather bureau, given information on
the barometer,  measuring wind vel
ocity, and the use of ballons with in
struments for recording weather con
ditions.
From the Administration building,
the group went over to the Dock
where they watched construction work
on the new government airship. They
were given explanations on the use
of duraluminum in the building of
the ship and other numerous phases
of airship construction.
Their next stop was at the hangars.
Here attendants took them on a tour,
explaining salient facts about every
ship in the hangar, allowing the boys
to climb into them and give them a
thorough inspection.
Following their sojourn in the hangars, they went to the pavilion on the
runway where they ate their lunch.
Returning once more to the Administration building, the boys watched
three transport ships land and take
off on their scheduled runs.
The entire trip was under the supervision of Jack Coughlin, director
of boys' work at the Community
Building, who revealed that next
week's trip would be to the Alliance
airplane factory.
WEST PARK DEFEATS
NORTH END
have turned out truly amazing articles, considering their lack of experience.
Sports also help fill the program
with goofy golf drawing by far, the
biggest interest. The golf course is a
six hole affair, laid out over the hillside east of the pool. If one could remove the high grass, water holes,
trees, rocks, brambles, etc., it would
be possible to shoot a 20, but as it
is, 46 is the best score to date.
Another catch is the fact that an
indoor baseball and bat is used, not
a regular golf club and ball. This
really makes it tough. The ball is
batted along the ground and should
you land in the middle of a bramble
patch, well, that's your tough luck.
The first week period of the camp
closes today but activity will again
get under way tomorrow.
HALL-LONG FAMILY
Rally In Final Innings To Win
16 to 10
Hitting safely in every inning, the
West Park team staged a nine run
rally in the final two innings to take
a 16 to 10 win over the North End
Friday morning at the football field.
The champs got to Hickey for seven
tallies in the first two innings, rapping out but four hits as six East
End miscues helped their cause.
The North End rallied in the second and third to pull up within two
runs of their rivals and then staged
an uprising in the fifth that sent them
into the lead by a 10 to 7 count.
i The sixth really ended the game as
leatherwork,  far as the North Enders were con
cerned when West Park forged into
a 11 to 10 count by sending four men
across but they came back in the
final frame to add five more to their
total.
Members Leave On Thursday Morning For Visit In the East.
Tomorrow morning (Thursday)
Mrs. Eleanor Hall, Ben Long, Miss
Alberta Gilbert and Miss Catherine
Lavy will leave North Canton for the
Atlantic coast where they expect to
spend two weeks.

Falls, Albany, New York city, At
lantic City, Philadelphia and Scranton, Pa.
Ben Long expects to spend a couple
of days in Boston. If he does he
wants to see Ralph Warstler in action
for the Bees.
Before they left they went to Canton and cast an "absentee voter's
ballot" in the office of the board of
elections in the courthouse annex.

FOUR LEAD LIBRARY
READING CONTEST
Huth,   McDowell,   Meyers   and
Kraus Have Read 20 Books
Thelma Huth, Inez McDowell, Mary
Meyers, and Richard Kraus are leading the current reading contest being
held at the library for local school
children, with. 20 or more books to
their credit
Each child is represented by a ship
bearing his or her name. Progress is
shown by the ship's movement around
the walls of the north room. For
every ten books read, a gold star is
pasted on the hull or sail of the ship.
W. P. A. help is being used to
mount art pictures which may be borrowed by teachers of the various
schools in this locality. There is an
unusually fine collection of the best
works of the early painters.
Work is also being done on sheet
music donated by townspeople through
a drive held by the Music club. It is
expected that over 400 pieces will be
bound and cataloged before the summer is over.

STUDENTS SM FOR
FREE INSTRUCTION
Plea Is Made For Instruments
As Fifty-five Enroll.
As announced in last week's Sun,
Francis E. Hammond, the new music
supervisor, is giving free instruction
on band and orchestra instruments,
at the high school building.
As this article is being written,
more than fifty pupils have returned
the enrollment blank which was sent
to every parent in the school district,
and many have signified their intention of doing so as soon as vacation
is over.
Naturally, it is to every child's advantage to start as soon as possible,
in order that they may become proficient on their instrument much sooner.
Of these signed up, there is an over-
supply of cornets and trumpets, and
a deficiency of woodwinds. The parents, whose children were members of
the saxette band, are especially urged
to start them on clarinet, as their
previous experience will prove most
valuable.
Perhaps there are folks in tbe community who would like to help the
cause of instrumental music in our
school, by loaning or giving to the
school, some instrument which is in
their possession but not in use. By
calling Supt. Trachsel's office at the
high school, informing them of such
an instrument, some one from the
school will be sent to get it. The
school would appreciate it very much,
and it would help some child who
might otherwise be deprived of a musical education.

An overtime period was necessary to decide the outcome of the water
polo match between teams captained by Dorothy McClelland and Barbara
Wood after the regulation game had ended in a 30 to 30 tie Friday evening.
The final score was 35 to 30.
Play was fast and furious with
plenty of ducking, spluttering and
splashing as McClelland's team rolled
up a comfortable 25 to 0 halftime
lead.
Opening the second half. McClelland and Swearingen switched sides
to make the game more even and immediately the heretofore losing team
put on a spurt to score three times
m the third period and then add three
more in the fourth to forge into the
lead.
Churning down the pool in the
final minute of play, Jean King scored
a goal for her side to tie the game
and send it into overtime. In the
first two minutes of the overtime,
Genevieve Swearingen came through
with the winning goal.
Sterling Pollock led the scoring
drive for the team captained by Howard Bosehart as they enjoyed a walkaway, or rather a swimaway, by a
45 to 0 count over their opponents.
Play started slow with Bosehart's
team scoring one goal in the first
period. Opening the second frame,
action speeded up and at the end of
the half the score was 20 to 0.
As in the girl's game, a swap in
personnel was also made with J. McCue and Diamond changing sides. The
change did little good as Bosehart's
team added two more goals in the
third and three in the- fourth to turn
the game into a rout.

Billy Cahill Lands Bass
Billy Cahill, one of The Sun's carrier boys, has been enjoying a fishing
trip through Michigan. A card to his
parents, Mr. and Mrs. William Cahill,
revealed that he landed a pound and
a half black bass at Three Rivers,
Michigan.
Amidst much splashing and merrymaking, ten girls and boys were
richer by a watermelon Thursday evening at the pool as the annual hunt
sponsored by the Community Building was held.
Despite the fact that those fortunate enough to bring up a melon from
the bottom of the pool were pestered
by swimmers and non-swimmers alike
until they shared their spoils, a lot
of fun was had by everyone who witnessed the event.
The melons were placed in a burlap
bag and then weighted down with
bricks and while the various contestants were sent outside they were
secreted somewhere in the pool.
At a signal, there was a mad rush
for the pool and much spluttering and
splashing as they searched the bottom for their prize. Some were
found quickly and others took a little longer.
Holt Needs Help
In the event for large girls,
Eleanor Holt found a melon but was
unable to bring it to shore and called
for aid. Amid the scramble to help
her out, Jean King arrived first and
took the melon to shore.
In the older boy's division, Kenny
McKinney and Bill Nodle came up
with melons. Eleanor Holt and Alice
Wise were the lucky ones in the large
girl's class while Johnny Howard and
Dick Streebe took the honors for the
small boys.
Marguerite Nodle and Margaret
Heim were the winners in the small
girl's class while Glenn Saylor came
through for the beginners.
The final event was a free-for-all in
the deepest part of the pool and
Helen King found the melon snuggling along the fence.
When everything was over, all that
could be found was rinds and seeds
all over the confines of the pool.

MRS.   GOLDSMITH  INJURED
Sustains Broken Noae and Chest Injuries In Accident Last Tuesday
Mrs. Pearl Goldsmith of Middle-
branch sustained a broken nose, facial
lacerations, chest injuries and several
broken ribs, a week ago Tuesday,
when the car in which she was riding
was sideswiped and struck a tree.
The accident occurred on the Harrisburg road and Mrs. Goldsmith was
rushed to Mercy hospital in the
Whittcar ambulance where she was
treated for her injuries.
Mrs. Goldsmith was riding in a car
driven by her husband which was
sideswiped by another car traveling
soutli, forcing them from the road.
The car was badly damaged.
Released from the hospital after
three days, Mrs. Goldsmith is now
convalescing at her home.
WITH the campaign echoing from
newspapers and public platforms
and over the radio it is hardly
necessary to mention the fact that
Tuesday, August 9, is primary day in
Ohio. But it is never out of order to
voice the reminder that in the primary as in the election it is the duty
of the citizen to go to the polls and
register his (or her) choice. On
Tuesday there should be no slackers.
In no better way can citizens of
Ohio show that they are prepared to
do their part in the affairs of county,
state and nation than through the
medium of the ballot.
Most people will feel grateful that
the primary campaign is practically
over. It has not, in some quarters,
been a dignified one. The Day followers have thrown considerable mud in
the direction of the Taft camp, and
Taft's friends have not been idle. In
the southern part of the state the
Bricker and anti-Bricker forces have
locked horns, and while it is true
Bricker has no opposition for the
nomination there are thousands of
Republicans who openly say they will
not support him in November.
There surely has been plenty of
personal denunciation in the Davey
and Sawyer camps, but if the tongue
lashings cause the people to go to tho
primary on Aug. 9 no one will seriously object to the manifestations of
zeal displayed by the belligerents
seeking the nomination.
t t t
THE Democratic candidate for
United States Senator, Robert J.
Bulkley, and the Democratic candidate for Congressman-at-Large,
Harold G. Mosier, have conducted dignified campaigns. The same can be
truthfully said concerning Congressman William R. Thom. As a matter
of fact the Stark county candidates
on the Republican and Democratic
tickets have refrained from mud
slinging, although a little whispering
has been indulged in. That was to be
expected. Even a saint would have
his halo knocked sidewise if he sought
a nomination on a political ticket.
The primary opposition Congressman Thom faces is of the weakest
kind, neverless his friends are wise in
urging Democrats to place an X in
front of his name for the reason that
a small vote would encourage his
political opponents to renewed efforts
to defeat him in November.
One of the puzzling questions of
this campaign is the vote Jim Seccombe and his opponent, H. Ross Ake,
will poll for the nomination for Congress. Mr. Ake secured it two years
ago, but was trounced by Bill Thom
at the general election. Mayor Seccombe is a cheerful philosopher; his
opinions are his own and vigorously
set forth, and it would not surprise
the writer of this column to read on
August 10 that Seccombe had defeated Mr. Ake by a substantial vote.

MASCOUTAH, ILL.—Special CFI Photo to The Sun by Arthur D. Jenkins,
Mascoutah, 111. Work on tearing down this huge hangar at Scott Field will
begin shortly. Said to be the second largest in America, it has never housed
a Zeppelin, although built for their accommodation. The destruction of the
hangar is a part of the plans oftheWar Department in changing Scott Field
to a strictly heavier-than-air post. This field will now become General Headquarters of the air service in America, the main field in the center of the
United States, maximum freedom from foreign attack is attained, together
with ease in mobilizing planes to either coast.
VOTERS should judge candidates
for office by the same standards
they would like applied to themselves in their own work. If a man
in public office has served the county,
state and nation competently and
faithfully, doing his whole duty, then
he deserves a square deal from the
citizens  in  return.
Senator Bulkl.y has been a model
public servant. He has brought honor
to Ohio.
Harold G. Mosier, Congressman-at-
Large, has demonstrated time and
again his ability. There is not the
slightest reason for displacing him except the lone excuse that someone
else wants his job.
Congressman William R. Thorn's
opponents have had opportunity to
offer their criticisms of his public
service. They have made none of consequence. This column believes he is
the right man for the place, consequently it heartily endorses him.
t t t
THE writer of this column leaves tomorrow morning for the .Atlantic
coast, but he voted an absentee
ballot last week, so his vote will be
counted. Other members of his family who will accompany him east also
voted. In our house we believe it is
the duty of every American to vote,
in the primary and at the general
election. The X in front of a candidate's name may mean your salvation
or your destruction. Keep that
thought in mind after entering the
election booth.
