Commissioners (From Pagp 1) while, has been asked to contrib utc $1,000. Mr. Lucas and two other com mittce members. Presiden James Imperial and Michae Deliman, told the commission ers that the state had threaten cd to i a the project un less the $70,000 was raised quick ly. Originally, work was to hav gotten under way last June Mr.

Deliman noted that twic before since the disastrou flood of 1936 efforts to obtai adequate flood control for th area have run out of steam. He said the Moshannon Cree committee has conducted an haustive effort to get the jo accomplished and said it is needed very badly. Mr. Lucas, emphasizing the importance of favorable action by the commissioners since, in his words, "it's mainly a Clear- Held County project." added: "It's jus.t one step away from realization and the state is anxious to get started." He said bids would probably be called this winter and work could get tinder way next spring. The motion to allocate the money was made by A.

VV. P'earson with a second from Wesley J. Read. Commissioner elect J. Harold McFadden attended the meeting and also expressed his approval.

1-2. can sit in front of the television set and familiarize themselves with all the junior miracles planned for their delight Christmas morning. TV's influence is felt in other ways too. Among the most popular games are versions of the popular "Password" and "Concentration." The junior genius, who prefers a greater mental challenge can learn bridge and chess through new juvenile versions of iese normally adult games. The new toys have brought othing short of a revolution to anta's North Pole workshop the head man still pre- ers a team of reindeer to a et plane.

They've also changed the linking of other adults, out hopping for a gift for a young elative or friend. In the good old days, father ouldn't wait until his son was Id enough to have an electric rain. It comes as something of shock that Junior prefers a attery powered Race Set with ts fast foreign made racers nd pit area. In the doll department the 'lain Janes with a brain have ome into their own. Once the most wanted doll vas the little beauty with the golden curls, the big blue eyes and a vocal talent confined to saying Mama and doing a little crying.

Now the little Mamas consider her "beautiful but dumb." They overwhelmingly prefer an intellectual overspring with redded nose, straight hair, glasses and dressed in an un- outfit of middy blouse and skirt. She may not take any beauty prizes but she can carry on a conversation, play games and speak several 'oreign languages. Even Mrs. Santa Claus has lad to learn new skills. For centuries she had no trouble turning out simple baby doll clothes to fill the order of the good little girls.

Now she has to combine the talents of a Paris fashion designer and an expert seamstress to the demanded clothes for tiny fashion model dolls who need everything from bikini bathing suits to mink coats. It isn't enough that tnese fashion dolls have the most extensive wardrobes of any "clothes horse" in history. They also have their own lavishly furnished homes, their own cars, and their own beauty and fashion salons. They even have a host of friends each with his or her own wardrobe, business office, car, home, all posing potential threats to a population explosion in the toy department. Any adult past the age of writing letters to Santa Claus should look over the toy counters this year.

It will prove an amazing and educational experience. It may also be a frightening one, particularly for those who recall clearly a childhood story in which the toys came to life every night after the shopkeeper left. If today's toys ever get going, with their batteries charged and their potentialities in full swing, they can take over the world. We know, too, who'll be leading them that homely doll in the middy blouse. On Christmas morning, at least, he's likely to sleep away without trying to convince a slightly intoxicated caller that his pals aren't at that number As you well know, a person always has a problem name on his Christmas list.

Usually it's the person "who has everything." This time it's the person who wants nothing. W. C. says if you want to make him happy Christmas morning bring him "absolutely nothing." However you'll have to think this over and consider the circumstances. He's a hardened advertising man and su a plums along with season greeting ac holiday sale promotions i.nd chubby men in red suits have been dancing round his head ever since the Christmas season started right after Halloween.

On Christmas morning he'll be shouting "Merry Christmas" louder than anyone in his home. So you'd better bring him something--like a rich advertiser who insists on at least two full page ads a week. I suppose after reading all this you feel grownups aren't nearly as appreciative and thoughtful as the boys and girls who always leave you cookies and milk, ask about Rudolph's health and end their letters with "if you can't bring me these things, bring me what you want to." But honestly, grownups aren't really so bad. Most of them had a very hard lime thinking of anything that wouldn't be acceptable on Christmas. Another said he's more than willing to shout convincingly "that's lovely--just what I wanted" over every hideous necktie he receives, even though he never wears them.

"After all, that's Christmas," he said. And several said they didn't even dislike Christmas bills. "Why should you mind paying for something that makes some body else happy?" asked one girl. So maybe underneath their sophisticated exteriors grownups still have the same qualities as the really good little girls and boys. They just hide them better.

Love and Merry Christmas B. Stiil Opposed To Ideals Of 'New Frontier' An AP News By GEOFFREY GOULD Associated Press Staff Writer WASHINGTON (AP)--A handful of Republicans, including tht House GOP leader, have indicated they don't intend to help Lyndo B. Johnson to the "honeymoon" with Congress traditionally enjoyed by new presidents. When a president first takes Wallaceton To Greet Santa Clous Tonight WALLACETON Tonight is the night Santa Claus will arrive at Wallaceton and distribute treats to the boys and girls. Saint Nicholas will reach Wallaceton riding on the community's fire truck.

Treats will be distributed at 7:30 p. m. at the lighted community tree at the William Herring property. office, Congress is usually receptive to his views and programs and more inclined, to pans his legislation. But one Republican after another has made it clear that the shock of President John F.

Kennedy's assassination will not change their opposition to the New Frontier. "They're trying to shove a of controversial stuff through on a wave of emotion," one Republican leader snorted to a newsman as he left the House floor this week. "Well, they're just not going to get away with it." And after a pleasant breakfast with Johnson last Friday, House Republican a Charles A. Halleck of Indiana told newsmen: "He knows the score around here and he wouldn't expect me all at once to change my There will be differences among us, of course." The House Republican Policy Committee, in an official policy statement, said that while grief has united Americans, it should not produce "unanimity on all of the legislative proposals put forward by our late president." It added: "Dissent and debate are the touchstones of the American experience. We are not unanimous in our philosophy of government.

We never have been. Nor will we be so long as we are a free nation." Eight Area Residents (From Page 1) DuBois, BS aerospace engineering; Robert D. Lines, 510 S. Church DuBois, BS, business administration; Bernard E. Kask, Grassflat, BS, industrial arts; Robert D.
