November 13, 1960 , KENMORE EVENING NEWS Page 2 BOXING SCHEDULED I Local boxing promoter, Jack Meister, has arranged a real treat for all Fight fans next Tuesday night when he will stage the most talked .of bout of .he decade. This is, of course, the coming battle between Danc1nig Steve Zadosevich and Tiger Bill Johnson. Only by outbidding the cities o Moscow md London and holding many television conversations with Archie Christie and Bob Markham, the managers of Radosevich and Johnson respectively, was ie able to have Kenmore selected as the city in which the fight should be held. This bout is of such special interest because of the striking contrasts ietween the two fighters. Radosevich, as most fight fans know, is of rather frail stature, but he has made up for his subsequent lack of punching power ry his highly developed boxing skill and flashing footwork. Johnson, on the :ther hand, depends entirely on his own brute strength to wear down his xpponents with a savage relentless attack. K a . Opinions vary greatly as to what will be the outcome of this epic meeting if boxer vs. slugger. Victor Bargar, local sports writer, believes that John- :on's two-fisted smashing attack will prove fruitless against the deceptive iobbing and weaving style of the master boxer. New Yor City scribe, George Madsen contends that no matter how skillful he may be, the frail Radosevlch will never be able to withstand' the sledge hammer blows of Tiger Bill. Referee Ed. Burr has tactfully avoided any discussion of the merits of the .two fighters. An added attraction of this bout is that it will be held in the newly com- ileted Kenmore Olyimpia. The co-designers of this magnificent structure, Kathie Webster, Beverly oag, and Carol Kelley, are confi ent that every person in :he expected capacity crowd of 125,000 will have a perfect view of the ring. For those unable to attend, the bout is, of course, being televised by the McMu - en Electronics Company. The Economic Manager of the Olympia, Bob Carver, mas stated that if the present period of warm weather continues, the roof of :he building will be simgly rolled back and air conditioning dispensed with as ,s done during the base all and football games. Tickets are on sale at Rosen's Peanut Wagon, somewhere on lower Main street. ' MYSTERY SOLVED After a long and trying investiga- ,ion sprinkled with frequent frustra- zion and occasional nervous break- lowns Qwe just don't mention the two auicidesl the Athletic Commission, :onsistin of chairman Alan MacGam- vell, and members, Larry McElroy, Eugene Hertzog, Don Able, and Guy lohnson, have finally discovered how t was possible for Harold Auer to swim the 220 in minus two and a half ninutes. While splashing in a local wool last Monday fresearch, of course-J M'acGamwell discovered that the an- swer had been right under his nose all :he time- robably hiding in his mus- zache. Aflter his explanation it has mow become quite obvious to those of scientific bent that Auer turned in a iegative time by merely swimming zackwards. h s n A The .commission is still investigat- ,ng the incident that occurred- last Summer concerning Dick Williams. National League Batting Champion. lt seems that Williams hit two. home runs, a triple, two doubles, and three sin les in ive times at bat. 'ghink that one over. NEW INVENTION I A miraculous new invention in the scientific world was announced today and robably might be made available so tlie public in the near future, naybe. After several years of pains- :aking research the brilliant team of loyce Schwab and Pat Young have produced their masterpiece-the let propelled yo-yo. When asked .its value Miss Schwab modestly replied: 'It will revolutionize the wor1d's recreation. b D ' It is rumored that multi-millionaire Pom Cantwell supplied the financial sacking for the extensive research which led to this little wonder of our age. PARACHUTE ' nsvsnorsn Jim Moore, famed inventor, is working on a new type of parachute which consists of a rocket that is strapped point upwards to thewear- er's back. The theory behind the de- vice is that while gravity is pullin down, the rocket is pushing' upg anti if the rocket pushes just a little less than gravity pulls, the wearer floats gently to the ground without harming so much as a air on his headwespe- cially if he is bald. The falling person must take care that, while he is falling, he does not turn upside down, for t en the rocket will help gravity and send him zoom- ing to the earth head first, Now this is definitely to be avoided since it is annoying to have everybody calling you flatttE. I Tom Mc ee, local daredevil, gave a demonstration of this device at the Kenmore airport yesterday by leaping from a plane at five thousand feet. Twosof the spectators Ruth Merker and Gerry Dick, are of the opinion that McGee had used a rocket that perhaps was slightly ,too powerful. 'When last seen he was over Atlantic City, heading south. GOOD NEWS FOR BUS RIDERS Richard Foster, General Manager of the McGahey Brothers Transpor- tation Company, which holds a monop- oly, on all New York State transpor- tation, has announced his company's purchase of 100,000 new helibuses from the McDonald Helicopter Com- pany. This new model, designed by James Felger and Tom Christy, is re- ported to be a remarkable improve- ment over the earlier helibuses which had a capacity of only two hundred LAW SUIT DROPPED Last week, Steve Lukacz began court action against the Holmberg' Drug Company. Then, to the great surprise of al , he suddenly dropped the suit. Last night he called in members of the press and gave the followini explanation which he de- sired to ave printed. On Monday of last week, says Mr. Lukacz, whi e walking downtown to visit a friend at his job as a pan- handler the gives facials at the Betty Attmore Beauty Shopi I began to feel rather ill. I stopped in tofsee Dr. Wilber Dickinson, and I was surprised to learn that I had pneumonia. Nat- urally, my first move was to enter the nearest drugstore which happened to he McKeen's Drug Store, where I purchased a box of ,those new pills developed by Lucille Moelich, that are a guaranteed one-day cure for pneu- monia. However, it took two whole days to cure my illness so I, of course, called my lawyers Norman Joslin and Don Johnson and began suit against the Holmberg Drug Company which produces the pills. Then yesterday, to my great embarrassment, I sudden- ly realized why it took two days for my cure--my illnessohad been double pneumonia. I would like to take this oppor- tunity to make a public apology to all persons concerned. CITY BRIEFS Ai concert will be held at 8 P. M. tonight at Hood's Music Hall. Guest artists to he featured are the famed pianist, Kay Bushg and the noted operatic singing star, Lucetta Bon- ning. Eliza th Bredemeier will con- duct the Kenmore Philharmonic Or- chestra. Bob Seib, long recognized as swing- dom's 'top 88 man, brings his solid little combo into the Boogie Room of the Hotel Kenmore tonig t for a six weeksfengagement. The rhythm sec- tion of this band is sparked by the stellar drumming of Duncan Tutton. Conservative factions of the public will be glad to learn that the city speed limit has been reduced to 200 mph. Police Commissioner George Broomfield says the new law will e strictly enforced. Mr. Brack Ludgluster of the firm of Howard, Hettrich, and Ludgluster died recently and left everything to a liocal orphanage-all ten of his chil- ren.

KiNMHHi EVENING NEWS VOL. XVXXVII NO. VIII A PRICE 5c SETTZO ACQUITTED Sensational new facts in the Arthur Snaffledagq murder case, brought to light by r. Settzo's own testimony yesterday gave the famous engineer his freedom. Mr. Settzo's testimony leading up to his acquittal was as fol- lows: I was spending the week-end .at Art Snaffle-dag's estate along with my colleagues Clyde Rathman and Dick Reid. Since we were there to meet representatives Bob Osgood and Harold Olmstead of the O'Neill Plas- tic Cement Company to discuss our new contracts, our secretaries Jeanne Morrison, Phyllis Munzert, and Nancy Robinson were with us. It was when Art and I were alone in the garden that the shooting occurred. Art had pointed to a group of weeds that were even scrawnier than the rest and an- nounced in all seriousness : 'See that plant over there? That is a young tree.' Now, this I couldn't believe. How could a little weed like that ever become a tree? Obviously, someone must have been gaffing my friend. With this in mind I remarked, 'Art, it must be apparent to you thaththis whole thing is a hoaxl' 'Imposs1ble,' was his rep y, 'I haven't seen an acorn around here for yearsl' U lMr. Settzo paused dramatically then shouted.J ' That was when I killed him. Any- one who would intentionally or un- intentionally make a pun as bad as that deserved to die! . Instantly the court was in an upl- roar. Settzo's attorney, Bob Nort , sued for dismissal which was imme- diately granted. The attorney for the state, Lorraine Hayes, and three jury members, Betty esbcott, Betty George. and Charlotte Busch, rushed over to shake the engineers hand. Immediately afterwar the. crowd surged forward and two of their num- ber Bill Wolf and Joe Cain carried Settzo from the courtroom on their shoulders, while Judge Peaches Packer led the jury in three rousing cheers. ................-.T- REPRESENTATIVE SELECTED Secretary of State Joyce Holzman announced today through Under- secretary Jane Bodenbender that Bruce Butler and Marjorie Beardslee have again been selected to represent the United States in the annua meet- in of the World Peace League to be held in Vladivostok, Russia next week. Miss Beardslee, you will remember, is the woman who won the hearts of the Russian people when at the recent Washington-Moscow banquet . tappe- tizers in Washingtong dessert in Mos- cowj she arranged to have served to everybody the favorite beverage of Russia, the Molotov cocktail. They give everybody such a warm feeling towards one another, Congressman John Sharp explained. Chief Justice of the League, Don Cornell, will preside over this year's meeting as usual. STATE AND LOCAL C ELECTIONS The final election returns show that the people of New York State are still solidly behind Governor Ronald Turner and Lieutenant Governor Rob- ert Tice. A new District Attorney, Carl Jacobson, was elected mainly on the prestige gained by his smas ing of a protection racket that had vic- timized such prominent establish- ments as Dev1in's Department Store, Broderson's Dress Shop, Swanton's Art Studio, and Choto f's Beanery. also re-elected was Senator Muriel o . The highspot of our local Kenmore politics was the election of Alfred Miles as our new Mayor. Other suc- cessful office seekers were Sheriff Don Murray, Judge Dick Freeman, and U. S. Representatives Nancy Noel, Joan Theobald, and Doris Webster. IDENTITY STILL MYSTERY The police are still unable to iden- tify an elderly man of about sixty-five years who was picked up last week by Patrolman Jack Quigley. Police phy- sician William Fink has announced that the man has probably been an amnesia victim for well over ten years. The only clue to his identity is that when found he was babbling over and over in a strange tongue what sounded like: Mairzy doats en doezy doats en liddel am zeedivyf' The most probable solution has been advanced by Doctor of Languages Ann Joyce Holland who believes that the victim has been isolated in a monas- tery for many years and the strange phrase is an ancient Tibetan tribal chant. Professor Donald Argus, the coun- try's foremost authority of American History, has declared that this chant was once a popular song in the Eng- lish language, but despite Argus s great prestige this theory has, of course, been disregarded as prepos- terous. 4 SUCCESSFUL OPENING The opening stage reversion of the old Civil War novel, Gone With the Wind at the Hamilton 'Theater last night was an outstanding success. Superb performances were given by the entire cast, Gilbert Gudgel giving an especially brilliant performance as the wind. Gil states that he gained proficiency in this part in high school where he was affectionatey called Hot Air by his admiring teachers. Other performers that received splen- did- plaudits from the critics were Edith Doerr, Bob Evans, Mary Alice Godfrey, and Irwin Zelman who por- trayed respectively Scarlett O'Hara, Rhett Butler, Melaney, and Ashe Wilkes. An especially effective job was done by the writers Jean Acker- man and Marilyn Hatch in their transfer of the story from novel to drama form. All of these points add up to a good plaiv, which according to its producers Bo Merkle and Vernon Moore, should have a longer run than the'Desert Fox, Rommel. -------......4............... CON DRELL ELECTED Terminating one of the most dy- namic presidential ,elections of our history, the final election returns, today showed that William Condrell is.the peop1e's choice for the thirty- third President of the United States. Mr. Condrell has the distinction of being the only President in our his- tory who has een elected by a unani- mous vote. Moreover, this feat seems even more remarkable when one re- members that even before the voting he predicted that be would win everxy vote. Of course no one but Condrel himself knows thereason for his cer- tainty. Perhaps he felt some psychic messagz. Then too, it might have been cause he was supported by Janet Hood's widespread chain of newspapers., Then too, the fact that he was the only candidate running for the office might have helped to bolster his confidence. II-lis campaign man- agers, Bill Kunz and John Obenauer, so ably extolled his desirable qualities for the presidency that all other can- didates gave up their campaigns as lost causes and dropped from the race.l Naturally, these theories are mere speculation and may be far from Condrell's true reasons. I Another unusual aspect of this elec- tion is that President Franklin D. Roosevelt declined to run for his eighth consecutive term. When asked w y he .had refused to be nominated, the acting President until Januar? first sighed wearily and murmure , Sorneliow I felt that I was getting in a ru . GOLD KEY RECIPIENT NAMED The Kenmore Junior Chamber of Commerce committee consisting of Dorothy Reilein, Jeanne Von'Daacke, Edith edder, Kay Moran, and Shir- ley Lumley have formally announced that Martin Feinen will receive the gold key which is awarded annually to the person who has done the most for Kenmore. The award will be presented at the Municipal building next Tuesday night. Of special interest is the news that Jean Seelbach, Dean of the Uni- versity of Rochester, will be a guest speaker at the banquet.
