Funds for construction of the building will be forthcoming from a $1,293,000 bond issue which was approved by electors of Perry local school district by a slim majority Tuesday. Needing a 55 per cent favorable vote, the issue was approved, on a basis of unofficial figures, by 56.4 per cent. THE UNOFFICIAL count was 3,235 for the issue and 2,498 against it. The unofficial figures showed that the issue received a favorable vote in all but two of the nine pre cincts in the township. The-voting by precincts was as follows: Perry 1, for 462, against 295; Perry 2, for 384, against 236; Perry 3, for 42, against 99; Perry 4, for 40, against 65; Perry 5, for 491, against 398; Perry 6, for 578, against 532; Perry 7, for 569, 403; Perry 8, for 457, against 317; and Perry 9, for 212, against 153.

The issue was submitted by the board of education of Perry local school district which proposes to use -the funds to be forthcoming from it to provide a centrally-located building; to house junior and senior high, school students of the district. AT PRESENT the township's high school students attend high schools in Massillon and Canton. This term about 465 students from the district are attending Massillon and Canton high schools. The board hopes to erect a building with sufficient facilities for an anticipated eventual enroll 1 ment of 1,200 students. It is hoped to be able to provide facilities for junior high school students first so that it will be possible to transfer seventh and eighth grade pupils from the district's four existing elementary buildings to the new structure and provide more class rooms in the existing structures for an increasing elementary en- Stark County Voters Favor Bricker And Bow Republican congressman Frank T.

Electors of the township decisively defeated a proposed $825 000 bond issue to finance erection of a high school in 1948 but the following year passed a 3945,000 bond issue to provide additional elementary facilities.

(AP) The Office of Price Stabilization today announced a ruling which could raise the ceiling price of a carton of cigarets by up to three cents. John W. Ackerman, chief of the food section of the Cleveland OPS office, said wholesale and retail distributors of cigarets can now add a 10-cent a carton federal tax soost to their costs before markups.

Previously they could not include the tax boost, which went nto effect Nov. 1, 1951, in costs. Ackerman said he did not expect ruling to increase the retail of a pack of cigarets, but he ceiling price of a carton "could 3e raised one to three cents, de- jending upon the mark-ups of the distributors." Issue Passes, Levy Fails A S15.000 bond issue for completion of a village hall and fire station received the necessary 55 cent majority but a half-mill evy for operating expenses for the Volunteer Fireman, Inc. vas defeated by voters of the district at Tuesday's election. A total of 414 voters approved the bond issue and 323 voted against it.

The levy, which required 60 per cent majority, was approved by 406 voters, 286 voting against it. Bricker, who defeated Democrat Nichael V. DiSalle in the statewide race, was given a margin by Stark county voters. Bricker polled 63,782 to DiSalle's 50.828. Massillon electors, however, although they favored Bricker, handed a slight advantage to McSweeney.

Bow collected 6,530 votes here while McSweeney was netting 6,648. STARK COUNTY returns from 318 of the 344 precincts late today showed Bow with 63,991 votes and McSweeney with 51,712. Bow upset the predictions by carrying traditionally Democratic Tuscarawas county, 16,498 to 15,599. Wayne county gave the GOP incumbent 14,802 while McSweeney was polling 10,366 in his home county. Bricker rolled up a 288-vote margin over his Democratic opponent in Massillon, receiving 6,712 voles to DiSalle's 6,424.

Bricker emerged the winner in 20 of the city's 35 precincts. Bow and McSweeney tied in the precinct race, each gaining an edge in 17. Both netted an equal number of votes, 227, in the sixth ward's precinct D. ILLNESS COULD NOT deter a local aged Democrat from casting his ballot at Tuesday's election. He is William P.

Eisenhower's early morning talk to the crowd assembled in the ballroom at his hotel headquarters: "I am not certain, my friends, whether or not you have read or heard the telegram that Mr. Stevenson just sent to me: It reads: 'The people have made their choice and I congratulate you. That you may be the servant and the guardian of peace and make the day of trouble a dawn of hope is my earnest prayer.

They had figured the odds favored Dwight D. Eisenhower when left Washington that Sunday sojin September. -But the champion 'whistle-stopper of 1948 was their ace in the hole and they had counted heavily on his "give 'em hell" campaigning.

Harry S. Truman gave them all he Milwaukee, in New York, in Boston, San in all the big cities and little towns from one end of the country to the other. FOR 18,000 miles he traveled, making a total of 212 speeches for Adlai Stevenson, driving himself even harder thaa campaigned for his own election when he was four years 54 instead of 68. He finished each night so weary he crawled into his berth often too tired to look over speech material for the following day. But each morning found him up at 6 a.

m. smiling, cheerful, and eagerly awaiting, another day. The crowds were big, some timts larger than those he drew four years ago. And they laughed at his sallies and urged him on with cries of "pour it on" just as ba- fore. When the campaign ended in his native Jackson county, the grey-haired, bespectacled Missourian reflected optimism.

TWO OF his former Democratic national chairmen, Frank E. McKinney and William M. Boyle, jr, showed him private polls indicating Stevenson was "in." Truman didn't produce any polls himtelf, but he told reporters he thought McKinney and Boyle were 'both on the right track." When dropped hit ballot into the box at Indtpradenct yesterday morning, he asked whether he was sure that "is a winner." He replied with a grin: "Of course, no question about it." Truman was in bed before 9:30 p. m. and apparently slept while his staff sweated out the returns in an atmosphere of steadily' increasing gloom.

HE MOVED toward Washington and the difficulties of adjusting to this changed political world. His first step will be to offer Gen. Eisenhower, the one-time friend against whom he campaigned so vigorously, full co-operation in the American tradition. He is planning to make a formal statement at the White House two hours after his arrival. The futufe holds many uncertainties for him.

An avid reader of history, he would have historians-record that he worked for international cooperation and world peace. He has said on many occasions that only the test of time determines how food a president a man AM nuta. varre; a son, Robert Cook of Navarre; two sisters, Mrs. Margaret Malone and Miss Mae Cook of Massillon; three brothers, Henry B.

incumbent Republican, appeared to have won over Demo crat Thomas B. Talbot. Schenck led 75,982 to Talbot's 73,468, with 340 of 504 precincts reported. IF POLK HOLDS his lead over Blackburn, the Ohio congressional delegation would remain the same as during the past two years: 161 Republicans, six Democrats and one independent. The independent is a i Reams of Toledo, who appeared to be winning his re-election fight in a three-cornered race in the ninth district.

Thomas H. Burke, a Democrat and ClO-United Auto Worker, was trailing Reams, and Republican Gilmore Flues was finishing a strong third. But if the percentage of Republicans and Democrats were about the same as in the 82nd congress, some of the personnel was different. In the newly boundaried llth district, Attorney Oliver P. Bolton was elected congressman, the first etec ive job he has ever held.

Like his mother, Congresswoman Frances P. Bolton, "Ollie" Bolton. 35, is a Republican. She, too, was elected, and together they will make the first mother-son team ever to serve in the U. S.

House of Representatives. Mrs. Bolton lives in Lyndhurst, a Clevela'nd suburb. Her son lives in Mentor, and his district is adjacent to hers. They both say they often disagree on political matters and won't necessarily vote the same way in congress.

Say Two Party System Is Born In Deep South By The Associated Press Dwight p. Eisenhower split the solid south to bits in Tuesday's general election and immediately a high Republican official in Florida said his feat was the of the two party system in Dixie. With four states in the Eisenhower fold, a fifth apparently on the way to a Republican triumph and a sixth nip-and-tuck, Ike had polled more southern popular votes than-any other GOP nominee. Firmly in Eisenhcwer's grasp War Victim grasp were Florida, Oklahoma, Virginia and Texas. On the basis of almos 1 complete returns, he had taken Tennessee.

Ike held a lead in Tennessee early today but nearly j.11 of' the remaining unre ported precincts were in predom inantly Republican East Tennes see. Bay taking those five states the Republicans would pile up 65 electoral votes. The race was tight in Louisiana and where that state's 1C electoral votes might go awaited further ballot co inting. "IT IS THE beginning of the two-party system in the south," said Paul Helliwell of Miami, vice chairman of the "Florida for Eis enhower" committee, "and freedom of the south from economic bondage." The other seven states of the traditionally solid south Alabama, Ark'ansas, Georgia, Kentucky, Mis isssippi and North and South 71 electoral votes, appeared safe for the Democrats' Adlai Stevenson. Yet in overall popular vote, with nany precincts still missing, the Denial general counted four million ivhich was more than twice the total gained by Thomas E.

Dewey in fewer than 100,000 behind the Stevenson total at this point. Later returns may pull him to more than double the previous Republican high mark in Dixie, set by Hoover in 1928. Hoover polled slightly more than million votes in carrying seven of the southern states that year. It was Dixie's -greatest de- 'ection by states. Mrs.

Edith Blecker Hollerbach Mrs. Edith Blecker Hollerbach, 72, of Wheeling, W. died today at 2:05 a. m. in the Ohio Valley General hospital, Wheeling.

Mrs. Hollerbach was a former Massillon resident. She moved to Wheeling five years ago to make her residence there with her son, Lewis Hollerbach. She was a member of the Wesley Methodist church iere. Besides her son, she is survived by two nephews and two grandchildren.

The funeral will be held Friday at 2 p. m. at the Gordon-Shaid- nagle-Hollinger funeral home with the Rev. Thomas J. Maxwell, pastor of Wesley Methodist church, officiating.

Interment will be made in the Massillon cemetery. The body is at the. Kepner funeral home in Wheeling where friends may call until Thursday afternoon when it will be brought to Massillon. Friends may call at the Gordon-Shaidnagle-Hollinger funeral home tomorrow evening from 7 to 9. Details Of Ike's Korea Trip Awaited WASHINGTON, (AP) military today awaited the firs expected order from its newly named commander-in-chief-elect when and how he wants to make his mission to Korea.

The expectation was that form er five-star Gen- Dwight D. Eis enhower who as president wil return to command although hi wears no uniform would mab his promised Korean journey be fore his inauguration Jan. 20. Eisenhower's campaign aide had discounted reports he woulc hasten to the Far East within 1( days of his election to fulfill his pledge to make a personal apprais al of means to end honorably the long stalemated war. But the chances were strong that he would make the trip within the next fev weeks.

THE PROSPECTIVE trip of the president-elect poses problems ol protection. If the precedents World War II were followed, his journey would be cloaked in secre cy until he had left the war zone, to guard against the chance thai the Communist air force or Rec agents might try assassination. The journeys of the late Presi dent Franklin D. Roosevelt to the European and Pacific areas dur ing World War II were never dis closed publicly until he had de parted danger zones. However, while the military and the Secret Service, which already has taken custody of Eisenhower's safety, might wish to follow that procedure, Eisenhower may have other ideas.

To be considered is the national and international psychological impact of a move which became a major element in the campaign. Ranking even above the dramatic possibilities of his Korean trip is the question of whom the new president will choose to direct the biggest and most costly branch of government, the defense department.
