1 and with his wife will move to California. The veteran author of "Bait for Bugs" will have completed 38 years of newspaper work in Decatur. "Our plans for the future are indefinite," Millard said. "First we'll spend two or three months Modesto, with our son, Buddy, his wife and the three grandchildren." Buddy has been classified advertising manager of the Modesto Bee since 1949. Reflecting a moment on leaving after nearly two score vears he said: "Decatur will always be home, no matter where the Millards reside.

The Review, and then The Herald and Review, along with the citizens of Decatur, have been very kind to Millard's retirement will end his "Bait For Bugs" column, the oldest sports column in the state written continuously under the same name by the same individual. The column name was adopted in 1922. During his two previous vears with The Review Millard wrote a sports column called "In Cold Type," signed only by his initials. Millard was frequently a controversial figure, often because he did not hesitate to write an unpopular viewpoint in his column. He seemed unmoved by criticism even when it was bitter.

Millard came to Decatur in March of 1920 to become sports editor of The Review. When The Herald and The Review were consolidated in 1931, he became head of the combined editions. Bait, as he often referred to himself in print, got his first taste of newspaper work in 1901. It turned out to be a sad experience for a voungster. Sold Papers Howard was near the Peoria Journal office when a bulletin was posted that President William McKinlev had been shot.

Knowing an "extra" would be out in a short time he got in line and received the first bundle. The extras sold swiftly and Millard returned for another bundle. He sold $8 worth of newspapers that day--and then lost his pocketbook on the way home. Two Men Rob Taxicab Driver A Yellow Cab Co. driver was robbed early yesterday morning by two young men who gave the taxi driver a fictitious address.

Glen Nihiser, 5379 Roderick told police he picked the two men up at his cab stand on Lincoln Square about midnight and headed for a West Macon Street address which turned out to be non-existent. When Nihiser could not find the house asked for, the two men told him to drive on because the apartment house they, sought was just ahead. Then, Nihiser said, one man grabbed him around the neck while the other took his wallet, containing $30, from his back pocket. One man also ripped the microphone from the two-way radio and grabbed the ignition key. Nihiser said he was hit on the head by what he thought was a shoe.

He was not injured. The two men then jumped from the taxicab, ran to a car parked at the curb and drove off. Nihiser called police about 12:30 a.m. Police investigating found the microphone outside the taxi, but could not find the car ignition ke; nor Nihiser's wallet. Traffic Arrest David G.

Welker, 2244 E. Hickory was charged with speeding 50 miles an hour in the 1200 to 1100 Blocks N. 22nd St. He was released to his parents pending possible juvenile court action. where he received degrees in 1953 and 1954.

He has been with Redmon. Smith and Hull since 1956. Harold Frank Tenney, 25, is a Decatur native and graduated from Decatur High School in 1951. He received an undergraduate degree at the University of Illinois in 1956 and in 1957 was graduated from the of I college of law with high honors. Following his graduation he was emploved in the university's legal counsel's office until September 1957, when he joined Redmon, Smith and Hull.

Since June 25 he has been 3 part time research assistant to Justice Franklin R. Dove of the Second District Appellate Court, Ottawa. Howard has alwavs been a devoted follower of Decatur High Stephen Decatur High) letics and has been a fervent champion and close friend of Gay Kintner, basketball coach and head of the department of athletics at the downtown high school. Millard also has provided for the past several vears the Max Poscover trophy for the best Millikin freethrower. Poscover was one of Millikin's all -time basketball stars.

Following graduation from college and awaiting a call to the Ensign School at the Navy Pier in Chicago, Millard served as secretary of the District Exemption Board in Peoria. After World War Millard was with the Moline Plow Co. for six months, where he started to write. He was official scorer of the Moline IlI League team. Six months later he became assistant sports editor of the Peoria Star under the late Fred Tuerk and then came to the Decatur Review in 1920.

Widely Known During the years in Decatur Millard became one of the most widely known sports editors in the Middle West. He officiated basketball or football games in virtually every college in the Midwest. He had contacts with hundreds of high schools as a result of officiating various scholastic events. His reminiscences of officiating davs often have been colorful subjects in "Bait For He frequently has recalled the "scandal" game at Tavlorville in 1921 in which he officiated. The game was billed as a semi test between Taylorville and Carlinville but turned out to be between Illinois (Taylorville) and Notre Dame (Carlinville), with much betting on the outcome.

The game caused quite an uproar when it was discovered the collegians were in the contest. Millard, as one of the officials, was bounced out of Big Ten officiating for two years. He had not known that the collegians were going to be in the game. Fred (Brick) Young, sports editor emeritus of the Bloomington Pantagraph and perhaps Millard's closest newspaper friend, was frequently paired with Howard in officiating. They were a familiar pair working together through the years Indianapolis Racer Feature of Second Annual Autorama An Indianapolis 500 race car will be one of the features of the second annual Autorama Aug.

Mr. Phares, a retired farmer, moved to Decatur from Maroa in 1941. He lived with a daughter, Mrs. Walter Auer. Mr.

Millard officiated in the Big Ten, Big Seven and Missouri Valley conferences as well as in smaller leagues. Tourneys in 4 States He was one of the whistle-blowers in the finals of state high school basketball tournaments in Illinois, Wisconsin, Missouri and North Dakota.

Millard considers the publication in 1954 of the history of the Illinois state high school basketball finals as his greatest contribution to high school basketball. He helped organize the first state officials' association and in 1933 was elected president of the Athletic Officials Assn. of Illinois. If there was one greater love than basketball for Millard, it was baseball. He has spent many hours of his own time working for baseball, both on a Decatur and national level.

For all his love of basketball and baseball, Millard made a marked contribution to other sports. He took Harry Haines to Bloomington to meet the late Lloyd Ever and the three of them organized the Central Illinois Tennis Assn. in the early 1920s. Millard was the originator of the Inter-City Golf composed of Central Illinois cities. At one time he was state commissioner of the Amateur Softball Assn.

and teamed with Leo Fisher, sports editor of the Chicago American, to write the playing code for the organization. Currently, Howard is president of the Illinois Associated Press Sports Editors Assn. Within this group he has taken the lead in starting formation of an Illinois Athletic Hall of Fame. "The greatest disappointment in my work in Decatur came with the death of Howard C. Schaub," Millard said.

Mr. Schaub was president of the Herald and Review when he died in Ft. Lauderdale, in 1947. "Mrs. Millard and I happened to be the last from the newspaper office to visit him a few hours before he died.

He was a wonderful man in every respect." Howard, who was born in Peoria in August, 1891, was married in 1923 to Thelma Brannan in the home where they since have lived, 254 N.

The car has a rotating beacon with two beams pointing in opposite directions. Both beams have been red, but one has been changed to clear. Martin said use of clear flashing lights is being experimented with in Springfield, Blue Island and Chicago. He said the purpose is to provide motorists with a clearer warning that emergency equipment wants the right-of-way. If successful on the fire car clear flashers will probably be placed on the department's trucks, Martin said.

Fire Chief's Car Has Experimental Flasher Light Planner Ford Expects to Use Salesmanship Shaffer Is New Social Agencies Council Aide Charles L. Shaffer, retired manager of the Decatur S. S. Kresge Co. store, has been appointed secretarv to the Council of Social Agencies.

The announcement was made yesterday by Robert R. Uhl, president of the council. Shaffer, who retired in December 1950, will work half davs two to three times per week in the new salaried position. The council office is at 120 E. William St.

The council, a planning and coordinating organization of 50 private and public health, welfare and social agencies, is an agency of the United Fund of Decatur and Miacon County. For two vears the council was guided by Joseph F. Hamilton, who resigned as associated executive secretary of the United Fund and Council of Social Agencies on June 6. Norman E. Russell remains as executive secretary of both organizations.

His work load however, will be lightened because of the addition of Shaffer to the staff. Shaffer was manager of the S. S. Kresge 5-10-25 cent store in Decatur for 19 years until his retirement. He served for three terms as president of the Decatur and Macon County Community Chest and was chairman of the Chest budget committee for 15 vears.

YOUTHS STEALING TIRE ELUDE TWO CHASERS A Friday night chase of two vouths who minutes earlier had stolen a spare tire from a Decatur man's car failed when the youths sped away from two pursuing cars. Victim of the theft was S. Hess, 27 Fifth Dr. Hess told police his car was parked at the home of William E. Polen, 555 S.

Monroe whom he was visiting. Hess said he heard a noise and looked outside to see the two boys driving off. When he noticed his car trunk standing open he got in his car and gave chase. Polen jumped in his car and blocked off one street to prevent the boys from escaping. Polen said the youths' car struck his on its left rear and side and then drove off, eluding both him and Hess.

Hub Caps Stolen Woodrow Parr, 980 N. Dunham told police two hub caps, valued at $8 each, were stolen from his car about 2:45 a.m. yesterdav. He said he was awakened by a noise and saw a car drive off at that time. In 1910 he got his first newspaper paycheck from the Oskaloosa, Iowa, Herald.

Millard attended the Universitv of Iowa for his freshman vear of law. Then Scott Lucas, a graduate of Illinois Wesleyan, induced Millard to transfer to Wesleyan. Lucas later was elected a U. S. senator.

Millard plaved center field on the only undefeated baseball team in Wesleyan's historv. He was captain of the 1917 basketball team. Howard frequently is ribbed by Millikin fans over the fact the 1917 Wesleyan team scored the least number of points ever made against a Millikin basketball team. The score of the third place game in the state college tournament was 26-4. "And I made all Weslevan's points," Millard always replies.

During his playing days Millard had a special talent for making free throws. Free Throw Record Howard V. Millard He established an Iowa high school record for that era of 16 consecutive free throws in one game. At Weslevan he set an lIAC record in his senior vear. Howard's interest in free throwing never diminished.

He instituted the Harold Lawrence Trophy at Decatur High School, given annuallv to the player with the best free throwing average. The trophy was named after a voung Negro player killed in a 1945 automobile accident. Lawrence often rode with Millard to basketball games. Mrs. Forrest File MRS.

Puhek Of The Herald and Review Staff Decatur's new city plan director is going to approach his somewhat touchy job here like a competent salesman going into a new territorv. That is the impression he gave during an interview here last week after he was hired to be the city's first plan director. Charles B. Ford, 41, has been in city plan work since 1945 and has been city plan director of Kalamazoo, since 1954. He said his main job will be to obtain facts, base his recommendations on them, and then sell the idea to the community.

In Ford's words, "'The professional planner's obligation is to sell." He continued, "If, after all the facts are presented, the community still does not want to buy the idea, the planner has done his job. But, he must obtain all the facts he can, SO the community can make an ade quate judgment." Profession Learns "Of course," he added, "the planner must be able to sell more ideas than are rejected. If, after a period of time, his ideas are not adopted, then he should try and find a community where his approach is more likely to be Ford got into the planning business when the profession, in his words, "was starting to learn things." During the depression vears cities had no money for planning. During World War II there was money, but no manpower, steel or concrete. Starting in 1945.

Ford said, "city planning centered itself on practical things. Earlier, he felt, city planning was "in an ivory tower" "the city beautiful approach" "monumental structures." The needs for taking care of vast population shifts, building and planning streets, schools, industrial and shopping centers and a myriad of other requirements on the American city brought planning to the practical side. Ford made this observation about the role of a community and its plan director: Bigness Delays Plans "Ninety-nine per cent of all planning accomplished was thought of by someone in the community for many years. But most ideas seemed so big, no one wanted to go ahead." At that point the planner can pick up the ball and get attention for the project. Often, Ford said, the professional's advice is rejected because in the ensuing discussion someone someone comes up with a better idea.

Then too. Ford added, the planner has fulfilled his obligation to the community because his idea resulted in the discussion and a better solution. Basically, he said, a city has to have a plan to follow. Decatur and Macon County have them. They are new and ready for public discussion, revision and then formal adoption by the governing bodies.

Ford feels that the interest shown here will result in much discussion and a number of changes. He doesn't appear to be worried about the fundamental city and county, plans becoming weakened through lengthy discussion. Ford says, "Compromises, in the long run, strengthen."
