Who’s Got the Hay . . .
VANCOUVER, Wash. Ml — The
fellow who cut and stole the hay
that William Ressiter wasn’t
raising may be in for something
worse than a larceny charge if
he’s ever caught. He’s run afoul
of the federal government, no
less. And Ressiter may have to
explain to Uncle also.
Ressiter owns 15 acres of crop
land northeast of here. He put the
tract into the government’s soil
bank program and was paid to
seed it on condition that no crops
be harvested.
The thief didn’t read this fine
print. He cut, baled and hauled
away the crop, volume unknown,
said Ressiter to Sheriff Clarence
McKay. Now what does every
one do?

confirmed.

Vanishing House . . .

You spent
$450,000,000
on bowling last year
13^4 times as much as you
gave to fight cancer
Shocking? Yes. And here’s
another shocking fact: in 1961,
cancer will strike in approxi
mately two out of three Amer
ican homes.
Go bowling. It’s fun. Enjoy
yourself. But when you spend
fifty cents to knock down pins
— give as much to the Amer
ican Cancer Society—to knock
out cancer.
If you do that, you will
be giving $450,000,000
to fight cancer this year.
Thirteen and a half
times as much as last
year I
Fight cancer with a
checkup — and send a
check to your Unit of the
