"In that respect, think il is an excellent project for cooperation between the schools and the Junior Chamber of Commerce. "I also believe It is unique, for I don't think anything just like it has worked out this way In too many localities.

Exhibition Cut Short By Bonfire Ashes One thing was made clear yesterday by the leaf loader demonstration i a Burning of leaves on city streets must be prohibited by law the city buys a leaf collector. The two don't go together, Mayor Roger G. Hughes said. The demonstration, scheduled for all day, was cut short because of larffe quan- tics of leaf ashes left at curb- ings from bonfires. demonstrator reported that the powerful suction machine, which operates like giant vacuum cleaner, sucked up piles of ashes and blew them into the air "in large clouds creating "an awful condition.

1 Mayor Hughes pointed on I that the demonstration did nol obligate the city in any manner does not necessarily mean that the city is intending to purchase a leaf collector. "It was only a demonstration without cost and without commitment," Mayor Hughes said "The events of the day show one thing, and that is that il the city buys a leaf loader Ji must prohibit the burning leaves." The demonstration showed conclusively, the mayor continued, that leaf collection with ashes at curbings would be impractical. But until a remedy is found there will be no legal ban on bonfires, the mayor added. "We are Irylnr to work out something to settle the leaf problem," he added, "and we will keep at it until we find the solution.

New York State Employment Service, New York Telephone District Health Office, Wil- dly officials are stumped when they seek an answer to the simple question; Who names new streets? A vigorous i through the city charter has given no clue. And a delving into legend and local history has come up with contradictory opinions, The quest began when the city was confronted with the item of naming the new street created beside Enterprise 'Aluminum Company plant on lower River Street. The matter had been' presented to the Common Council several weeks ago, and the council had referred it to the Public Service Board for a suggestion.

The board suggested thai the street be named "Enterprise Avenue." A resolution er.iBodylng tliat suggestion was sent back to Ihe council for its session Tuesday night. a brought favorable reaction, but the question of who is legally charged with a i ing the name stimulated a discussion.

"Personally, I think the council is more or less bound to concur with the Service Board," Mr. DeAngelo said.

He added that he had consulted Sheldon H. Close, who was city clerk in. the early 1920s, and Mr. Close loid him it was the custom then for the board to propose a name and the council to concur. However, he cont Inued, the former city engineer, Frank who had been in office about 40 years, told him that the council always named the streets.

Mayor Hughes concluded thai the information gathered by Mr DeAngelo "indicates that it is a joint function 1 of the board and the council. A motion to accept the name of "Enterprise Avenue" failed for lack of a second, and Mayor Hughes announced that he would ask the Public Service Board to meet with the council at the council's next to settle the matter.

Preston told The Star. "There are indications now a 1952 will have from 50,000 to even more than 55,000 cases of polio. This is by far the worst polio year in all history." Because many local polio chapters have had to call on the National Foundation for immediate assistance, necessitating a drain on funds, the nationwide March of Dimes drive will be the greatest in history', she said. "The drive from January 2 January 31 will raise Iho added which must be contributed this year," Mrs. Preslon declared.
