LIKE IT HEREThese Fellows Knew How to Have Some Fun By GEORGE GRIM- What happens to all those powhen campaign buttons the sound, fury and election have gone by? One of our Star and Tribune pressmen can tell you. He was for Ike--very much so. Wore his Ike button to work. But many men In the pressThey were for Stevenson. razzed the Eisenhower booster, even managed to slip his button off a couple of times.

"You'll see who's right when the votes are in," said the staunch Ike man. On Wednesday morning, after the pressmen had watched hundreds of thousands of newspapers roll through the complex machinery, each proclaiming the Eisenhower victory, the Ike man opened his locker. Clattering to his feet- -dozens of Stevenson buttons. Now he has them on his hands. Letter from J.

J. Jaspers, Minneapolis, wants to know how badly Shepheard's hotel in Cairo was damaged in the upset last year. He stayed there while on a cruise. SHEPHEARD'S is no more. It is a plush and gilt memory of many a traveler who found its ceilings high, its food delicious, its servants endless.

George Sedard, the travel man, says there were people who liked its crags and cobwebs, but he can offer a fine modern hotel in case anybody's going to see the pyramids. Nobody could rebuild Shepheard's. How do you negotiate a construction contract with spiders? LANDSCAPE If women, stuffed into those slacks, Could only walk behind their backs, It would not take (1 male's duress To put their shape back in a dress. A wonderful visit, last week. to the modern farm home of Vic and Emma Shaver and their four youngsters near St.

Clair, Minn. We stopped in on the way a Mapleton speaking date stuffed ourselves on Vic's shotgun ducks, bowls and platters of vegetables, stuffing, salad, he.ie made rolls and the best pumpkin pie with country cream I've eaten in years. THEN CAME a letter from Emma saying she was sorry the ducks were so dry. The meal was good all the way. The chance to spend a couple of hours in the wholesome atmosphere of that relaxed family was a double tonic the night before elections.

The crop work is done for the year-but 400 pigs and four youngsters will keep Vic and Emma from heading towards warmer shine. There's a stability, an openness about such good farm folks that gives you calm assurance. And, Emma, how come if the duck was dry that I ate two helpings? OVERHEARD: "Well, the Republicans are in three days already and it hasn't rained. Guess it's time for a change." HAPPY WEEK-END everybody -but watch those matches and tossed cigaret butts as you drive about the countryside. Don't burn next spring!

Mayor deLesseps S. Morrison of New Orleans, came to the Twin Cities Friday to talk to the Minnesota Association of ors. He urged that St. Paul's Winter Carnival and the Aquatennial join his city in its celebration of the 150th anniversary of the Louisiana Purchase. Strictly speaking, of course, St.

Paul wouldn't be eligible, since the Purchase, in 1803, brought only land west of the Mississippi into the United States. But Morrison, whose city will celebrate the Purchase throughout the year, proposed the Minnesota communities include the theme in their celebrations. He was greeted by Aqua queen Joanne Melberg, who will reign over next year's festival. (PICTURE -page 1.)

Gibson 2591 4933 France So. (Edina) WH. 7623 Spaeth to Rule on Assessment Hike in County The Minnesota board of tax equalization took under advise. ment Friday the Hennepin county order which sought to increase assessment valuations of real property in rural Hennepin county. G.

Howard Spaeth, commissioner of taxation, said he will rule by next Saturday on whether he will allow the boost in sessments ordered in August by the county board of equalization for 32 cities, villages and townships. COMMUNITY representatives yesterday presented results of their own surveys in the third and last day of appearances before the state board. They were from Plymouth and New Hope townships, city of Robbinsdale and villages of Crystal, Brooklyn Center, St. Anthony, Osseo and Long Lake. Donald Fraser, attorney for Brooklyn Center, that Spaeth take the position in his ruling that municipalities--such as Brooklyn Center--which have attempted to eliminate assessment inequities be allowed to continue doing so gradually without "arbitrarily" boosting their valuations to 35 per cent of sales prices.

Roy Haeg. Hennepin county supervisor of assessments, said Brooklyn Center's valuations should be increased by 41 per cent to bring them up to the 35 per cent valuation level. Spaeth assured Fraser he will review his and other protests and give them weight in making his decision. He said Brooklyn Center's present 24.9 per cent valuation "probably will be raised some, but maybe not to 35 per cent." THE COMMISSIONER said Thursday there appeared to 110 justification for across theboard increases ordered by Hennepin county. Charles S.

Bellows, attorney for Long Lake, said his client's old ratio based on sales was 30.1 per cent. Application of Haeg's increase of 79 per cent, he protested, would raise the ratio to 54 per cent. Bellows said Haeg based his valuations on only four samples. three of which were unfair because they were on uncompleted buildings. He said also that the county supervisor included no commercial property among his samples even though 55 per cent of Long Lake's total valuation is commercial.

'Sixth Customer Stop Station Holdup A filling station can thank his "sixth sense" the owner, timely arrival of a customer for preventing a robbery Friday night. Victor Ahlquist, 59. 820 Fiftyfifth avenue Brooklyn Center. was in the office of his filling station at 20 Eighteenth avenue N. at 7 p.m.

He sensed something was wrong and turned. He caught two blows on his arm aimed by two youths bent on knocking him out. The third blow hit his head, and he fell stunned as the assailants started to open the cash register. Just then a customer drove into the station. The would-be robbers, apparently shaken by their struggle with Ahlquist, ran off on foot.

Ahlquist was treated and released at General hospital. Youth for Christ AT THE First Baptist AUDITORIUM TENTH and HARMON SATURDAY NOV. P.M.

A recent federal grand jury report concluded "some system of payoffs must surely exist" in granting of Minneapolis liquor licenses.

First Japan Postwar Cargo Ship to Sail TOKYO- -Japan's first postwar cargo-passenger ship will sail for Brazil in late December with the first group of emigrants to the South American republic since World War II. Addition at Faribault Proposed for Retarded By ROLF FELSTAD Minneapolis Four more buildings at Farifault rather than a new institution for the mentally retarded elsewhere in Minnesota was recommended Friday by a legislative subcommittee. The additions to the present Minnesota School and Colony at Faribault, it was estimated. would cost two million dollars less.

The subcommittee proposal came one day after the state executive council had gone on record in favor of a new institution at Brainerd, Minn. THE LEGISLATURE previously approved spending $100,000 for site and land, after failing to resolve disputes of standing over where the years new institution should be built, and left selection of a site to the executive council. The subcommittee reported: The present school at Faribault needs $3,335,000 worth of improvements. It would cost $5,373,000 to make improvements Faribault which are needed anyway, and to add facilities for 400 new beds in four new buildings. It would cost more than 635.000 to improve Faribault and build a new institution elsewhere for the mentally retarded.

The extra two million dollars, the report said, would have to be spent for such things as site, staff, maintenance employes, roads and duplication of various supplies, facilities and services. Total approximate cost of enlarging present Faribault facilities by 400 beds was estimated at $2,038,000. If the $5,373,000 were appropriated for Faribault, the report noted, $2,038,000 would be left BOUTELLS TOY RIOT No deliveries, phone orders, no C.O.D.'s or exchanges REGULAR 9.95 HOLLYWOOD TOY TV, complete with real action programs.

It suggested a new pital should be The request for the start on a new hospital was first made to the council last August. The council at that time deferred decision until its bond hearings, which will be held Nov. 18.

A total of $150,000 was provided to correct certain immediate haz ards. This is the first time the board has formally requested the sprinklers. The state fire marshal first ordered them installed last July 28. He recently renewed his order and gave the city until Jan. 23 to act.

The full committee returned the subcommittee report with the recommendation that it give the matter further study, especially in reference to expanding existing facilities at the Cam- bridge, state hospital. THE SUBCOMMITTEE, composed of Reps. Stanley W. Holmquist, Grove City, chairman; Carl O. Wegner, Minneapolis, and Roy L.

Voxland, Kenyon, reported that nearly 3.200 mentally deficient patients in nesota now are housed in the Minnesota School and Colony. It estimated that about 250 more not now in institutions need immediate institutional care. Its recommendation for 400 more beds was based on near. future needs. A new and separate institution, the report said, would cost more than $4,300,000 which "will be of no benefit to the 3,200 patients at Faribault." The subcommittee also recommended that mentally-ill patients be removed from Sandstone state hospital, making 450 beds available for mentally deficient on a temporary basis; and that minor overcrowding in present facilities be cured by better distribution of patients.
