Flu Spread Means No Town Santa Claus

---------------------------------------------FPHA Asked To Cut Rents For Servicemen's Families

Dr. Eisner pointed out this this constitutes about 15 percent of the town's 8,000 population and said that this is not a high ratio in comparison with nearby places.

The local situation was further hampered by the tE'mporary loss of the services of Dr. Isabel Blum, the other full time physician, who was obliged to devote her atten­tion to her two children and her maid when they fell victims of the epidemic.

l-oung Folks' Dance Big Hit

The seventh in a series llf young people's dances was held in the school auditorium Saturday with 150 girls and boys present.

The auditorium was attractively decorated with white crepe tapers cleverly twisted from the center to the walls, representing a chap­pel. Huge red paper bells hung at intervals.

Hopes for an "equitable solu­tion" to the servicemen's rent re­duction plea by Greenbelt citizens was expressed this week by mem­bers of the Citizens Association protest committee who conferred with officials of the Federal Pub­lic Housing authority. Nathan H. Schein reported that the FPHA officials "recognized the import­ance of the problem and the jus­tice of the committee's claim". No promises were made by offi­cials but the committee members hopefully expect to receive some word from the federal officials the first of next week. It was expected that Dr. Blum

would resume her practice tomor­row. Dr. Eisner said he is making every effort to answer home calls as rapidly as possible, but urged residents to eliminate these calls except in emergencies.

The Serenaders, with their pop­ular young leader, Mahlon Esh­baugh, presented the music and appeared for the first time all in new tuxedos. Boys in their best suits and the girls in lovely new evening dress gave the impression the whole affair \Vas 'very for­mal".

The protest was first made two weeks ago by a group of fathers who expect induction into militax'Y service in the very near futur~. The matter was submitted to the Citizens association last week and the committee was appointed and promised the suport of the or­ganization.

At the insistance of Dr. Eisner many local functions were post­poned or cancelled this week. The Parent-Teacher Assn. Christmas party was postponed until next Tuesday evening. The h i g h school class ball, schedulNi for this evening, has been postponed as was the high school basketball game.

It was learned this week that servicemen's families living in the original Greenbelt homes will not be eligible to move to the lower cost "defense homes", but, how­ever, there are lower cost hous~s available in the "original !-tomes."

The study group will meet at 8:30 p. m. at the home of L. Pres­ton Blatter, 17-C Parkway. This group is gaining in popularity as may be attested by the number of those who heard Cleon Skousen, stake mission president, last Sun­day evening. The public is invi­ted to attend these meetings.

f To the Editor---· A number of grown-ups have

been dancing at the young people's dances which are usually held the second Saturday of each month. These "oldsters", shall we say, seem to be having a per­fectly marvelous time. Howe·.-~r. I do not thing it has been made clear to them that this is the one night "youth has its fling'' so far as the dance floor goes. We started out with attendance of 150 girls and boys. Now our attend­ance usually runs into the hund­reds. The while idea is to give the children from the fifth grade through intermediate groups something of their very own to lok fonvar to each month. So­now comes the time to tell all adults thai they ar<:> perfectly w~l­con1e to nttPnd tht>se popular af­fPTrs. if fh:..,~ ... \~.·!11 pf,..:-.s-~ tak~ thP fl~u·k S!~at:-:, \', !~1 ·n ~ .", c· l'H •:;1 PI CI­

ViderJ, for their eon1Iurt '":d .iuc;l. be content to look on. Plea:se ilo not make it necessary to ha"e one of the hostesses ask you to leave the floor. I know the music is grand and everybody is enjoying themselves, but please have a heart and let the young people ·ha,·e as much space as they de­sire. They know i!s their night. and feel crowded out when older people start mixing ..vith them. \Ve want even bodv to have a good time, but ·the girls and boys n1ust come iirst. So lets all be good spol'ts ahout it.

The Penalty of Popularity You go to your dealer and ask for a case of National Bohemian or

National Premium Beer. And he says he is all sold out--had none

since Monday •.• Or you order a Iun:ch or dinner at a restaurant and

say:"--and a bottle of National" ... and the \Vaiter says:--"Haven't

had a bottle since day before ye:;terday-but I can give you so-and-·so"

... and then you say: "I can't see \-vhy I can't get National

Beer!"_ .. THAT'S THE PE.'T\fALTY OF ]JQP[TL~4 R/1'.Y.

Like the father \\'ho says 10 his son: "Johnny, thi.., hurts n1c

more than it hurts you--" :,o \-V.:! SZ;.y to you:"lt hurts US Inorc than

it hurts you when that bottle of NA1~IONAL doL·~n't step right up to please you."

Year in and year out we have bJe\vt:d with utmo~t care a beer to satisfy you and please you. Year after year we have been re" anlecl ~eeing tnore and more folks turn to NATIONAL. Right nov more peoph: are callin~ for KATIOXAL than ever before--and right now war :ime conuitio~ls make it impo~::-ible fur us to supply all the orders.

Actually, the amount of National Beer \\'e arc able to turn out is only a little below last year. Every day thousands upon thcn.~:-;anus uf cases of ?\ational Bohemian and National Premium go out into quick comnmption. The !:-honage

of NATIONAL results only in part from the rationin~ uf our supply of malt. Mainly it is due to such an increase in demand- -.IT'S TilE PEN.ALTY OF POPULARITY.

All we can say is it htJ rts us more than it hurts you when we can't supply the demand. Thnre's a real solution though--let's put an more steam and get this war won-~ then just step up and say "NcaHonal" -an•i we'll all drink a iluge National toast to VICTORY--

Ray Glasgow Leads ch k p· ' · -:> amroc 1tcl1Gr~

1 First Year Here Bv BILL .\I00.-~5;

Raymond Durrett Gl 'lc:;,;.-m·, hig bespectacled right ha!HIP:-. ·was "bell CO\V" of the Gt'e?nb<>~t nil: h­ing herd in 1\is fr-~s:JnW•l ~ham.­rock vear. The ''Ra·~··n··· t·a~::.;ed up 10 -victories agai11st but 1 le>ss­E""> to finish one full game ~Jetter than Texas Jim lckewl, his co­performer in a procession of double-headers last summer.

Ray was born at Fairmont, \Vest Virginia on August 6, 1911. He got his three R's "t C~r.tral

Grade School be­fore ste9;>ing up to East J.' co i r­mont High. Af­ter high schr:-ol graduation h e went away to Oak Ridge, North Carolina, attending mili­tary school there. He ma­triculated at N. Carolina U. at

RAY GLASGOW Chapel Hill but quit just before his sophomore term. .

Ray was a fine student as well as an outstanding athlete. In high school he played l;>~lwtb~ij and baseball for 3 years and was .captain in both sports in his sen­ior elM!. At Oak Ridge the big fellow earned his letters in both sports and was president of the graduating class. He merited his numerals in basketball and base­ball at the ~University of North Carolina before leaving school.

On August 4, 1933 Ray married Miss Nurney Miller of Aulander, North Carolina, his schoolday sweetheart. The Glasgows have three little girls, Mary, Rose Marie and Carol Lou.

The 32-year-old cross-fire spec­ialist has had an interesting basji!­ball career. He played for the Caromount Mills team in Rocky Mount, and Lewiston and Ashos­kie in the Costal Plains League before returning to his native \Vest Virginia. Nate Andrews, of the Boston Braves, was his college roomie. Burgess Whitehead of til•• :\:pw YC>r!~ G\;c>1ts, was 'sith !~a:.· at L(•wiston anrl Sam Narron. t hlrd .stz·ing (_"atch(':· of the !'.~'"a­t ional l ... eaiue ch'-1n1p Card!IH!!s, got his start at the Caromount :1IiJls.

Ray turned to Fairmont and pitched for the champing King­mont team in a county league, and for Granttown and Fairview. in 1941 Glasgow pitched for the Fairmont Onized nine in Ray Du­rnont's \Ve::;t Virginia Semi-Pro tounrnamen. His outfit lost out in the state finals but not before the "Razor" cut dov.:n t\vo oppo­nents in a 4 hit 4-2 tussle and a 1 hit 6-0 thriller,. the Onlzed only tournev victories.

The- \Vashington Navy Yard called Ray to work on .January 12, 1:)-!2 and he hooked on with a strong Naiman Photo nine, for whom he elbowed six wins in sev­en tries his first summer in \Vash­ington. Vernon Ise!i, good local bov;ler currently gone red-hot, worked with Glasgow at the Navy Yard and persuaded the big hurl­er to come out one Saturday that season to pitch a game for the Shnmz·ocks. The opposition failed to show up hut Ray got an eyeful of Greenbelt that made him want to move out here right awa'-'. The Glasgows moved in at 73-F- Hidge I{oal last December 1.

Hny took part in 23 gnmes with the Shamrocks last summer, p'tching 131 innings in 17 of them, giving up 42 runs on 109 ·hits and but 2!J walks, while striking out 6S hatters. As a batter Hay made 20 hits in 66 times at bat for a .;~rn avez·age to place sixth among the team's regulars in that respect.

The Shamrocks' pitching pros­pects for the next season will re­main bright with the big three, Glasgow, Breed and Boggs.

Every time you lick a war sav­ings stamp you help lick the Axis.

GREENBELT COOPERATOR

I From 1-lalls of Gl-lS I By MARILYN MARYN

Due to the recent flu epidemic a great. number of students and teachers were absent from school this week. For this reason, Paul Barnhart and local health officials requested that all activities tem­porarily stop, but they will re­sume again as soon as the epide­mic is over. The senior ball, schedul,~d for this Friday night, was postponed until a later date and the boy's basketball game with Central high school, sched­uled for Tuesday afternoon, also was postponed. The school, how­ever, has been ordered by officials in Upper Marlboro to remain open.
