HOPES YULE SEASON WILL LOOSEN GRIP ON JACKET Bob Brown of 1323 Washington Ave. is the fall guy in one of those mix-ups of clothing that occur at almost any public function. He attended a DeMolay dance Friday night at Franklin Masonic Temple and came, away with a suede jacket which he later discovered wasn't his. These things are always happening, usually the clothes do not fit the persons who are involved, or else they are equal value and neither victim has to whip his conscious much to right the matter. But Bob, an Alton High School student, is one of those exceptions that make you.

wonder about the rules. The suede jacket, which he so thoughtlessly threw over his arm at the lodge hall, has a tear in the back, frayed sleeves and other evidences that if the calf who originally had kept it she would now be a cow 362 years old. Bob's own jacket was the opposite. It was spanking new and even had a pair of gloves in the pockets. Bob figures that the person who latched on to this recently Mr.

and Mrs. Rjeharrl Robinson, feiute Moro, are announcing the birth of their fourth son. He was own fit 2:42 a. Monday Weed Rivet- Township Hospital. A son, weighing four pounds and seven ounces, was born to Mr.

and Mrs. Robert L. CasOn, Cottage Hills, nt 3:02 a. Monday in Wood RiVer Township Kospital. Born prematurely, the baby was taken te- the Christian Welfare Hospital's premature center in East.

St. Louis. The Casbns have another son, Robert Lee, Mr. 'and Mrs, Thomas F. Schilling, 368 Rldgeway, Cottage Hills, are announcing the birth of a daughter at 6-29 Monday in Wood River Township Hospital.

Mr. and Mrs; Louis F. Hicks, Forrest Homes, Route 1, Betlial- to, have announced the birth of their thirteenth child, a son, He was born at 5:35 p. m. Monday in Wood River Township Mr.

and Mrs. Neal Story, 118 West Maple Hartford, are announcing the birth of their fifth daughter. She was born at p. m. Monday in Wood River Township Hospital weigh- 'ing six pounds and nine ounces.

Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Hargis of 614 Alby are parents of a son, Michael Eugene, born at 10:37 a. m. Monday in St.

and Mrs. Willie Woods of 9 West Sixteenth at 7 a. m. Monday in St. Joseph's Hospital.

The baby weighs seven pounds-and'iO ounces; -and Mrs. Ellison Cannon of 3321 Belle have announced the birth of their fourth child, a baby, weighing eight hatched jacket merely doesn't know how to find the owner. That's probably true. But there always is that silent struggle, which most of us would have. The possessor of the new jacket can well: think he has done his part by "holding it for the owner." And maybe he can rationalize the matter until he convinces himself that his.

jacket which was taken by mistake is equally as good as the new one he took by mistake. Even has the attribute of being broken in a little better. Looking at this objectively, Bob Brown has many 'things working against and not the least of them-is hunian nature. But he has one ally. Each day-over the radio and TV the quantity of Christmas, songs increases; a Perhaps todays tomorrow or later this weekT the fellow who Brown's new jacket may break under the strains of "Good King Wenceslaus" 'arid make a studied effort to get it back to the owner.

If you see some youth fingering a suede jacket and, say, listening to a broadcast Dickens' Christmas Carol he may be experiencing the inner conflict of'Scrooge, Tell him about this iteni so he can get the good deed done long before Christmas, unlike Scrooge's jok of Tiny Tim. Bob Brown is pretty cold and doesn't have time, to wait. of Births pounds and 10 ounces, was at 9:05 a. tfi. Monday in St.
