Within an hour, Jimmy's father called home. "JIMMY GOT the call he wanted," the Rev. Mr. MacKenzie said during the brief sermon. "But he came back to the church to help others.

"This is the time not for helping but for loving, and Jimmy loved others," the pastor said. Jimmy's father, a member of church choir, sat proudly in the choir loft as Rev. MacKenzie praised his son. More than 120 of the church's 200 members heard the story. Jimmy's father explained he narrowly avoided being involved in the bridge disaster.

Mrs. Hopkins has been led by Attorney George Taylor on a series of readings from old chapel records. At one point Judge Arthur D.

Tudor, visiting from Kenton, noted the case deals with the conduct of the present trustees, not ancient history. Taylor, however' sent for another box full of records and continued the tedious procedure anyway. The 43 people, present in the court room were becoming noticably restless after several hours of the Taylor-Hopkins performance. Swain Australia (UPI) Deputy Prime Minister John McEwen was named tonight to succeed Harold Holt as prime minister. Holt vanished Sunday while while swimming in shark infested waters off this summer resort and was presumed drowned.

THE ANNOUNCEMENT was made by Governor General Lord liichard Cassey who said the appointment became effective as of 10 a.m. EST. McEwen will serve as temporary successor until tlie ruling liberal party elects-a new leader. The parly leader then would become prime minister. Holt, swimming in waters he knew "like the back of my hand," disappeared in boiling offshore waves Sunday while friends stood helplessly on the beach of the Melbourne area resort.

A WIDESPREAD sea and air search failed to recover the body. The emergence of McEwen as prime miniister is expected to signal no change in major policy including full support for the allied war effort in Vietnam. The lost leader championed the Vietnam cau.se under the campaign Sloan "All the way wilh LBJ." (Continued from Page 1) Commissioners and the employer of a particular member of this board, is in violation of the named sections quoted, and is illegal and invalid. "It is also the opinion of this office that, so long, as a member of this board is an ploye of a particular firm or company any contract entered into by gnd between this board or agencies thereof and such firm or company is illegal and invalid." Swain then announced, "I am going to see him (William Kiss, store manager) this afternoon and sever all relations with Sears Roebuck." OBVIOUSLY not surprised at the ruling. Swain lamented, "I think it's an unfortunate thing and I feel very badly," adding, "I want the record to show I had absolutely nothing to do with purchase" other than approve it as a county commissioner.

He denied receiving any commission or imbursement for the sale. The commissioners then quipped, "I'm certainly glad it's just a $350 purchase, and I'm glad it wasn't for $500,000." ACTING ON Lucal's advice Commission Chairman Fred H. Deering, ordered new price quotes be obtained, and payment to Sears be cancelled. This action according to Lucal. "will remove all taint from this purchase." Lucal read two passages from the Ohio Revised Code, which he said states Swain's action was illegal.

SECTION 305.27 claims, "No county commissioner shall be concerned directly or indirectly in any contract work to be done or material to be furnished for the county." SECTION 2919.08 reads, "No person, holding an office of trust or profit by election or appointment, or as agent, servant, or employe of such officer or of a board of such officers, shall be interested In a contract for the purchase of property, supplies, or fire insurance for the use of the county, township, municipal corporation, board of education, or a public with which he is connected," After reading the legal section Lucal claimed, "It is clear from this opinion and from the court cases construing the same section that a person holding an office of trust does not have to receive direct financial remuneration resulting from such contractual relationship in order to violate the statute. The other two commis- i 0 remained quiet throughout the proceedings except when Wilson McLaughlin claimed he hesitated to second Swain's motion, "because I thought it was a conflict of interest, but you said you'd talked to somebody and it was okay." McLAUGHUN wrote off the incident as "unfortunate." The legal opuiion was ordered the same day a Register story revealed Swain made a motion to buy the washer from Sears just eight days after being hiredd by the firm to handle commercial, corporate and municipal accounts. The Sears price, judged "the lowest and best" by the commissioners was one of four submitted. The purchase, since it was below the state ordered $1,000 bid line, was not an advertised bid and was treated as a requisition. The commissioners did not say when the new price quotes would be available.
