Even before the ctoors were of- ficially scheduled to open at seven p.m. young and old were very gingerly picking their way into the skating rink trying to avoid Jesse Ziegler Beads County Committees Ex -Governor William Com- stock of the Wayne County Board of Supervisors announced this past week the appointment of Livonia Township Supervisor Jes- se Ziegler to the following com- mittees: Chairman of the Commit- tee on Taxes and Chairman of the Committee on House Numbering in Wayne County.

The turn out exceeds even the fondest hopes of the most opti- mistic Rotarian. Many wondered just what the crowd might have been providing the weather had been more favorable. Chances are no greater, because a little rain was not going to stop the local folks. Any thoughts of staying at home because of the weather would have caused as stormy a session at home because it was a kids night and they really took over. At nine o'clock many of the youngsters were literally dragged out in order that they could get some sleep and so their parents could return for the dance. One -young lady left only with the re- assurance that, "If I am a good girl next year can I go again?" The program was well received from the opening number by the Junior High band to all the skat- ing exhibitions. The Rotary Club wants to take this opportunity to thank Robert Bates, Dolores Brown, The Gardenaires: George Eads, Barbara LaMay, Irma Barn- . ard, John Petraszewsky Patricia Johnson, John Dyaney, and Shirley Johnson.

The Newburg girls are learning cheers for the cheering team to follow the boys to the games, but they don't seem to be doing very well at present helping the boys to win the games. Perhaps now that the girls have half of the school sweaters in their posses- sion, they will bring luck. There were squirrels in our janitor's bonnet the other day, when he reached for the volley net in the art cupboard in the basement a flying squirrel jump- ed out leaving 4 baby squirrels behind. James Waldrop took two of them home but even though they were fed on milk, they died. The mother squirrel should have have built her nest in tree along the lake. ST. MICHAEL SCHOOL Although time seems to fly by rather fast out St. Michael way it certainly took a long time for the flooded playground to dry out. Every cloudy day fills us with fear of a repetition of indoor re- cesses, although they too are fun (if they do not come too often). Why this past week was the first chance in two months that we were able to enjoy good old mother Nature. Our team is busy practicing baseball with hopes of beating Newburg.

Our eighth graders are busy deciding what__ high school they are to attend. Both teachers and schoolmates hate to see them leave and as -every day brings June and graduation nearer they seem to grow more dearer to us than ever before. This week's reporter has nosed out the follow- ing: Martha Papo is to enter the Felician Sister's Academy and will prepare for the Sisterhood. Won't it be fun to have Martha teach at St. Michael's School some day? Jack Koenig will enter the Franciscan High School at Cin- cinnati, Ohio and there will pre- pare for the priesthood. In the future St. Michael's will not need to worry about any retreat or mis- sion. Jack will conduct it. William Norton also intends to enter the seminary to prepare for the priesthood. Some day Father Contway will find in him a fine assistant. At present Wil- liam is patiently awaiting his parent's consent. The above mentioned are but a few of- the many and varied professions our fellow students have chosen. We are proud of our future leaders of mankind. Spring Is Here So Ara the Grass Fires With the approach of spring the brush, grass and woods fires started by the residents of the township presents a very acute problem, a custom that is so un- necessary and dangerous but so difficult to combat by newspaper . pleas. Flames racing thru grass and brush threaten at once to en- velope the nearest building, pos- sibly your own home. • When you stop to consider it, it certainly seems silly for a per- son to start a grass fire in close proximity to his home or his reighbor's when the act in itself really does no good whatsoever; in fact does a great deal of harm even if it does not start a larger fire. It does the ground no good whatsoever (as Michigan State College ;will tell you) . it de- stroys pheasant's and other bird's nests and makes the surrounding area a dirty black looking mess to get on your shoes and cloth- ing to bring into the house. When they get out of control, as they usually do, it necessitates calling the fire department, which takes men away from their daily L11 JOIN THE AUTO CLUB AND INSURE OUR CAR AT COST AUTOMOBILE CLUB OF MICHIGAN MAYFLOWER HOTEL L.

Those from Wilcox were: L. Balmes, E. W. Morey, H. L. Eaton and L. L. Walker. The Teachers' Committee tentative salary schedule would create a 849,000 deficit for 49 teachers and $94,000 for 64 teachers. The tenta- tive budget calls for 52 teachers. Means of raising additional monies were discussed at some length and these included increas- ing the personal property tax in Livonia Township which at the present time totals $420,000. The Board felt that here was a source that might possibly yield some money. They also asked the four mer: present what their reaction would be to a 3 mil operating levy. In reviewing the budget, it was decided that eery little money could be made tip in that the items were set as low as possible on the budget already. At the present time no reaction as to the $250 increase has been received from the teachers and none is expected until after their meeting . Monday night. Rotary Carnival.

The Wayne County Road Com- mission has sufficient 12 -inch pipe in stock to install at least two of the above mentioned 12 - inch mains so that construction could be started on these mains as soon as the bond issue is approv- ed and the bonds sold. The Road Commission estimates that the time of starting the re- maining work depends entirely upon delivery of materials and should be from 6 to 8 months after sale of bonds. Upon the completion of these mains, Livonia Township will buy its water from the Wayne County Road Commission rather than from the City of Detroit: To cover the bond issue it is expected that the water rates will be in- creased lightly. Going To Have A Blowout At Your House? Is Mrs. Mamma going to dunk the drapes in a dry cleaner to brighten up the colors? Things will brighten up no doubt, but suddenly, when the blast cuts loose. In a second possibly, no drapes, no Mamma, no house. All because it was felt that it would be cheaper to do it yourself in- stead of sending them to a re- liable cleaner. Please, under no circumstances, use an inflamm- able dry cleaner in the house. Get out in the yard with it. Another good way to get the the "little red wagon" on its way to your house and also to get yourself hated by your neighbors, is ' to burn large quantities of papers in the furnace. Burning paper creates heat much greater than your furnace was built to handle. The pipes get red hot and the heat sneaks thru a faulty flue or some soot catches fire and throws nice big fat sparks on the roof, anybody's roof. Be careful when cleaning up around the whole house... take all the debris OUTSIDE and burn it in a wire mesh recepticle and don't pick out the windiest day we have had for two weeks. Have your garden hose connected to an outside outlet just in case the fire might get out of hand by one tiny piece ge£ting away and gett- ing into the dry grass or weeds that will be there in a few days. You may be thinking that spring will never get here but it will in a few days and you will get a hankering to get out in the yard and just work your head off cleaning up the place and you DO have a nice house and so does your neighbors so don't be foolish and start a grass fire. They are decidedly not fashionable these days and in very, bad taste. - REMEMBER - - - Don't use in- flammable liquids in the house. Don't get the furnace too hot burning rubbish or papers. Don't start grass fires. Don't let the painters leave re- fuse around the building. DON'T $E CARELESS. Will You Be A Displaced Person This Year? "Displaced persons" is a rela- tively new term which has been principally used to describe the millions of people, particularly in Europe, who were driven from their homes by war. The phrase can be used very well and prop- erly in speaking of persons "dis- placed" as a result of a fire in a home. In 1946, the Austin, Texas Fire Department estimates that 115 persons were "displaced" as a result of 307 fires in dwellings in that city. This is an effective statistic. It points to one of the unmeasurable losses due to fire. Lives lost can be counted and property losses expresssed in dol- lars, but it is less easy to dra- matise the inumerable disloca� tions and confusions that follow in the wake of a fire, particularly in the home. The fellow who toots his own horn will end up playing out of tune. WOLFE`S Apparel Shoppe m ,Children's Striped Cotton Overalls — $1.49 Open Evenings 'Til 8:00 p.m. 7 Mile at Farmington Rd.

The journalism classes of Plym- outh High School attended a tour of the Detroit News last Thursday afternoon. The tour began at 1:30 and ended at 2:30.
