Terming as arbitrary the present system in which half of a $500,000 yearly total is distributed on the basis of countywide priorities, the mayors asked the board to adopt a formula based on population and road net miles. It has been used successfully for many years in Alameda County and could up the cities share $36,000 to $65,000, the conference was told.

For example, the other night, after an elderly couple enjoyed their dinner, and the waiter presented the check, the husband pulled out an old Prince Albert Tobacco can stuffed with hundred dollar bills. His wife was disgusted with him.

You brought the wrong can! she said. ADD INTERESTING VISITORS TO FRANCESCOS: Danny Nardico, the famous former light-heavyweight boxer; was in for lunch, and he looked great. Seeing him again brought back memories of his historic-bouts with Jake Lamotta, Ezzard Charles, and Archie Moore. His best-known fight was his unsuccessful challenge of Joey Maxims title. One of oiy regular patrons, Charles Hawley, Executive Vice President of Meat Packers Equipment, is always a genial man and he appreciates the good service rendered by our famous waitress.

Penny. The -other day this cheerful gal broke him up when she greeted him with: Hello, Ironsides! Like the character Ray-' mond Burr plays on TV, Mr. Hawley leads a very full life in a wheelchair. Incidentally, talking, about marvelous people in wheelchairs, Ive been verypleased to see that the newspapers and TV have done stories on my 18-year-old friend, Gary Kerr, of Walnut Creek. Gary, as you read in this space two weeks ago, is going to represent the U.S.

in the Wheelchair Olympics in Heidelberg, Germany, starting the first of August. In June three different breakfast clubs had lunch at Francescos. .125 members of the Board of Equalization (Harry T. Seligman Acting for the Committee) gave a retirement luncheon for Tom Pepler. The other day Les Vierra brought the Pepsi Bottling people in for lunch.

Wow! Do thevlove Pepsi! We ran out of that beautiful beverage and because everybody else was busy I had to run up to Safeway and buy a couple of cases. (Folks, that shows you the service -you get at Good old Jack Ratliff, president of Astro Aire, not only has a heart of gold, he loves antiques as much as I do. When he heard that'a heartless thief, had stolen one of the lids off the wood-burning stove I have in my lobby-museum he searched a number of antique shops for a replace-. ment. Thanks, Jack, old buddy! 1 Mort May and his wife Zelma were honored at Morts retirement dinner, June 30th.
