Buxton and Mr. PKuhn.
With all this talk -going around
about Fire Prevention the .past
few weeks and ;with the celebra-
tion of Fire Prevention Week this
week, Oct. 6th to Oct. 121h don't
you think it would be: a good idea
to go over to the fire station and
see the newbuilding and the
pumper and all the equipment
that you have at your disposal in
case you are unfortunate enough
to have a fire in your home? -
Come over any time Oct. Llrth,
bring the children, meet the Chief
and .his men who are the fellows
,who will have to get up this
winter at tall 'hours of the night
in freezing ;weather to respond to
a fire and to ;protect you and your
property. Ask them questions
about how to !prevent fire, ask
them about the operation of the
pumper and all the latest fire
fighting equipment on the truck
ask them about the recusitator
that is there for cases of drown-
ing and !people overcome with gas
... ask questions ...ask a lot of
questions . . the men will be
glad to try and answer them.
One of the :best ways to prevent
fires is to know what NOT to do
so that they will not occur. If
your home burned down could
you ,build another one at once ...
have you a relative or a friend
that :would -take you in . have
you ;a right to inconvenience these
people ..: -most certainly you do
not :want to lose a loved one .. .
does not a fire impress you in
other ways than from excitement
is it not serious with you ...
can't you realize how terrible it
is ... you would if you could see

Men—One Is Burned
To Death—Police
Arrest Drivers
Highways. in the Plymouth area
last weekend became trails of
death, crimsoned with the !blood
of a nineiteen-year-old Plymouth
youth and a twenty-one-year-old
Northville bridegroom of one day.
The traffic victims were Carl
E. Johnson, son of Mr. and Mrs.
Leslie Johnson, of 336 West Pearl
street, and Mark H. Porritt, of 504
Plymouth street, Northville.
The Plymouth youth Was killed
instantly early Sunday morning

run motorist, later ap!prehened! by
state police.
Mr. Porritt ,was fatally burned
Saturday afternoon ina, jeep -auto
cohision at .Schoolcraft and Farm-
ington roads.
Less than 24 !hours aner the
Johnson youth had been 'horribly
crushed to death !between moving
and parked vehicles, state police
of the Detroit :post arrested Henry
W. Rebitzke, 40, of 28609 Clarita,
Livonia township, as the hit -run
driver.
Rebitzke, who adanitted having
served a four -months sentence
ten years ago for involuntary
manslaughter in a similar ac-
cid+ent, at first denied he was in -
valved. in any accident.
State police confronted him
with a hub cap found .at the death
scene which fitted his 1936 black
Chevrolet sedan !which lacked a
hub cap. Pieces of headlamp lense
found at the scene also fitted
Rebitzke's ,broken: headlamp, state
police said.
They also found fresh paint on
two fenders. He said he ,painted
the fenders because they were
rusty. Upon scraping the fresh
paint off, state police found
traces of 'green paint on the
fenders.
State police reported that the
parked car ,which was sideswiped
at the same time Johnuon was
killed :was green. Reibitzke still
would not make a formal con-
fession of guilt.

The five youths in the parked
machine were horrified and
momentarily stunned by the sud-
den turn of events. State :police
said it :was their understanding
that one cf the girls in the park-
ed car was engaged to Johnson.
Funeral services for Johnson
were held at 2 p.m. Wednesday
from the Schrader Funeral Home
with the Rev. Clifford Doty of-
ficiating. Burial was in Rural
Hill Cemetery, Northville.
Johnson is survived by 'his par -
ens, three 'brothers, Geoe Allen
and Samuel, and a sister, Mrs.
Laura Jean Andrews, all of Plym-
outh.
The Northville newlywed, Mark
Porritt, 21, who was married last
Friday night to the former Yvon-
ne Simons, 16, of Flint, died' in
agony from .gasoline burns a few
hours after being admitted to
Wayne County General Hospital
last Saturday night.
Officers of the Wayne County
road.Patrol reported that Porritt's
jeep collided ;with the auto of
Harry Becker, 42, of Detroit, when
Becker allegedly failed to heed
the red flasher—calling for a full
stop, at the intersection of School -
craft and Farmington roa'd's.
Porritt was enroute to North-
ville on Schoolcraft, officers said,
while Becker was traveling on
Farmington.
Officers were at a loss to
explain why the Wayne Coun-
ty Signal Department had
eliminated a normal stop -
and -go system of traffic con-
trc,l at the intersection in
favor of a red and yellow
flasher system .calling for
Farmington road traffic to
stop before entering or cross -
in, Schoolcraft and caution-
in.Schoolcraft traffic to re-
duce their speed when ap-
proaching the intersection.
Deputy Sheriff Dan Evans, of
the road !patrol, said Poritt died
in utmost a -gory after failing to
Jose consciousness from severe
burns from gasoline -fed flames.
De-cuty Evans related !how
Porritt, his whole body soaked in
flaming giaso!line, :crawled 20 feet
from the :wreckage of his jeep to
a water -filled ditch and then lay
nearly an hour before an ambul-
ance arrived to take him to the
hospital.
"Porritt was covered with burn-
ing gasoline and his clothing
burred almost entirely off."
Evans said.
"Then he lay there in the
water -filled ditch for 55 agoniz-
ing minutes because an ambulance
enroute to the scene had broken
down. He just lay there and
quivered like an injured puppy,
but never making a sound. I'm
telling you it was awful. You
,couldn't touch him, and there was
nothing to do but :wait for the
ambulance," said Evans.
"He was -conscious most of the
time. He iwas so horribly burned
that I failed to recognize him up-
on reaching the scene, Evans con-
tinued. He .knew me though and
told me who he was."
Evans said when they finally
moved Porritt "his skin came off
his hands and arms like long

are studying the War of 1612 and
the French Revolution. The .boys
of our class (went to ibaseball

room is moving to Canada, we had
a surprise party for her which all
the girls enjoyed.
Grade 7.—After trying our luck
at salesmanship for the 'benefit
of our school :we have discovered
the sad fact that still a few Amer-
icans are bigoted. It was amazing
that one or two ,people refused to
subscribe and bluntly stated that
it was because we were from a
Catholic School not realizing of
course that we have non-Catholics
attending our school too. This
incident incited us to an extensive
study of American Ideals to coun-
teract such un-American attitudes
as we have met with.
Grade 6.—Jointly with :grades
7 and 8, our class is taking part
m a campaign for magazine sub-
scriptions. The first day we were
fortunate enough to ih:ave the
highest general total of money
collected, but the coveted donkey
"Charlie" -went as a prize to Jack
Feterly, an eighth grader, who
brought in the highest individual
sum. We are eagerly figuring out
our .credits needed to gain the

two captains were Frederick
Lockwood and Roy Willett.
In history we !have made a
map on the early settlement and
the title for our map is, "Settle-
ment in North America." On the
map are the voyages - of Joilet,
Marquette and La Salle. Now we
know what they discovered and
in what years.
The school band is getting big-
ger everyweek and since the
meeting, three new members,
Barbara Littlefield, Walter Som -
merman and Hugh Clark have
joined the !band which is under
the direction of Mr. Thomsen. He
is doing a fine job of teaching the
students how to splay their instru-
ments.
In are class we have been stu-
dying sketching, painting and
paint:ng with chalk. Last Tues -
ay, we sketc1hed the Ford build-
ing by Newburg Lake and it was
the first time for many of us and
the results were good.

LIVONIA CENTER
The meeting of the Livonia
Center P.T.A., which was held
on Monday, Sept. 30, 1946,.!proved
to be an interestiing one. Before
the meeting was in full !progress,
Mr. Rogers, principal at Livonia
:Center, introduced all the teach-
ers to the parents. The topic of
discussion .was "HotLunches At
Livonia Center School."
Mr. Rossman talked about the
program and 'how it has worked
out successfully in the other
schools of the township. He re-
marked that with this new -build-

ing, Livonia Center had an ideal
setup for hot lunches.
Mr. Bates ,was appointed chair-
man of a committee to organize
and investigate expenses in start-
ing a hot lunch program. The
chairman is looking for more
volunteers to help out with this
work.
The pupils at Livonia Center
are anxiously 'looking forward to
hot lunches, and hope that a pro-
gram can soon be setup at their
school. The kitchens at Rosedale,
Newburg, Wilcox, Stark, and Pier-
son schools are already equipped
to serve lunches to their pupils.

Although they enjoyed coming
only half days, most of the eighth
grade are glad of the change to
full days.
Up until now, none of the clas-
ses could possibly be held five
daays .a week. This made extra
homework necessary. Even with
the two rooms there will not be
any increase in the amount of
subjects offered. However, !basic
subjects are now being taught
five days a week, rather than
only two or three, as under the
;previous schedules.

The New Addition to Livonia
Center
The mess hall which was trans-
ported to Livonia Center from
Dearborn to ease the -class room
shortage, is finally in use. Even
though only two class rooms are
finished; we feel encouraged. We
like the, desks 'because they are
of the high school variety. We are
also pleased with the cream color
of the rooms, which make them
very cheerful. The general feel-
ing is that this will do until our
high school can be built. We hope
this won't be too long.

New Basketball Court
The boys and girls of Livonia
Center 'have :been enjoying the
new basket ball court on the

A schedule for the use of the
courts during iphysical edcuation
classes has been made out where-
by the eighth (grade girls have
use of it on Monday, the ninth
grade girls on Tuesday, the eighth
grade boys on Wednesday and
the ninth grade boys on Thurs-
day. At noon the pupils who get
there first may use the court.
All of Livonia: Center is be-
coming very enthusiastic over
basketball and several boys hope
to form a school '.basketball team.

Fire Prevention Week
Is This Week and
Every Other Week
More than half of the fires that
occur ihappen in the home, the
American Home . you hear a
great deal about the `2ii erican
home."
To the rest of the world it is
a wonder of electric ice 'boxes
and magic hands that perform all
sorts of household tasks at the
snap of a button... yet this great
institution, the American home
has the highest fire rate of any
country in the world, an average
of nearly 3,00,000 a year.
Why this shocking record?
The answer is BAD HOUSE-
KEEPING the remedy lies
in a CLEAN 'home . . . a clean
home seldom burns ... yes lady,
we know you washed and ironed
and dusted and ran the vacuum
around the iwhole house till you

were nearly ready to drop .
BUT ... did you or your husband
or that young baseball player
you have around the house ever
do any of the following chores
in the past few months???
1. Did you check from cellar
to attic, inside and outside the
house for rubbish??? Get rid of
it ... oily rags should be .burned.
2. Check the heating system
for cracks, soot and clogging .
watch .for woodwork and other
combustible material near the
heating system.
3. Keep ashes in covered metal
containers and keep the screen
in front of the fireplace.
4. Supply ash trays liberally
throughout the 'house. Don't
smoke in bed and keep matches
away fromchildren ... use safety
matches wherever possible
keep matches In metal container.
5. Send garments to dry clean-
er ... NEVER :bring gasoline in-
to the home.
6. Replace frayed lamp cords
and defective electrical equip-
ment. See that fuses are properly
installed . . . don't use pennies
for fuses . . . better be without
light than without a home.
7. There's no place like home -
for a fire.
If you have read' t'he preceed-
ing articles and warning as set
forth by a member of your local
fire department you most certain-
ly can see the dire need for a
wholesale township cleanup by
every home owner and everyone
that has a place of business. The
citizens of Livonia Township have
a fair record up to the present
writing for the past nine months.
There were a total of 55 runs
made by the fire department with
a resultant loss of $29,925.00, of
which $10,000.00 is somewhat
doubtful. This is not too bad for
a community of some ten to fif-
teen thousand people but remem-
ber, 90 percent of this loss could
have been avoided with a min-
imum of care.
Today the threat of fire -always
a destroyer of human lives and
property must once again be
evaluated and regarded in its
proper ,perspective as a powerful
factor directly effecting the suc-
cess of American ,production of
food ar, d other goods-whic`i means
so much for world-wide conver-
slon to peace.
Veterans of World War II have
been certified for the purchase
of more than 90,000 separate items
by the Detroit office of War Assets
Administration. The number of
veterans certified is in excess of
38;000.

Dashboard
Phone Service
Inaugurated
Detroit, Oct. —The telephone
on wheels is a reality in Detroit
today with indications that :by
next year it ,will be commonplace
on major highways in southern
Michgan.
Dashboard telephone service
was inaugurated at Detroit Sat-
urday when the Michigan Bell
Telephone Company gave a de-
monstration of its new cper•ations
before automo'ble manufacturers,
Micah•igan Public Service commis-
sioners and engineers, newspaper
reporters, and radio men.
Thomas N. Lacy, Michigan Bell
president, revealed the company
will apply next year to the
Federal Communications Com-
mission for permission to operate
similar service at Lansing, Grand
Rapids, Jackson, Part Huron,
Flint, and the Kalamazoo -Battle
Creek, and Bay City -Saginaw
area.
At first, the additional radio-
telephone stations at those points
will •provide service to the im-
mediate areas. Later they, along
with another station to be instal-
led at Detroit, will become links
in a general mobile service over
all important highways in the
state. Ultimately, they will form
part of a nationwide mobile net-
work.
Mobi,le service enables motor
vehicle users to make and receive
telephone calls to and from any
of the nation's 29,000;000 tele-
phones. Calls are handledby
"mc'ble service operators" with
conversations traveling part way
by radio and, :part by the regular
telephore network.
The telephone itself is mounted
under the dasChboard. Transmitt-
ing and receiving equipment is
located in the truck of the car.
At first, the principal users are
business firms such as ambulance
c e r v i c e s, delivery companies,
newspapers, food distributors,
doctors, express companies, and
the like.

Vitamin B
For Well Being
Vitamin B1 is the vitamin 'we
hear so mush about now, it is call-
ed the beauty vitamin and the
vitamin for more vim and vigor in
middle age. This vitamin gives
you steady nerves and a good' ap-
petite and relieves you of that
tired feeling while the lack of it
causes children to develop slowly
and adults become nervous, tired
and have a poor appetite. Of
course the extreme lack of it
causes beriberi.
The body woes not store vita-
min B1 in any quantity therefore
we must supply it daily. It is lost
in cooking at high temperatures
for a long time and it is also lost
in the milling and refining pro-
cesses. That is why it is so neces-
sary for us to eat some whole
wheat bread every day.
Here is a list of foods that are
particularly rich in Vitamin Bl;
Cereals and bread made from
whole grain.

Red kidney beans

Liver and Onions in Casserole
1 lb. sliced liver
6 sweet gherkins
11/2 c. mashed potatoes
