(AP)—The good people of Way

But die-hards were not giving up
until the final moment.
Blue skies and brassy sun hung
over the western Pensylvania

the tricks in folk-lore to bring cn
even the slightest drizzle.
Members of the fire department
were fining motorists 25 cents if
they hadn’t washed their cars to

Many carried umbrellas. A few

Graft
Probes
Deepen
ATLANTA, Juy 29—(AP)—As
serting he was armed with confes
sions and enough evidence to go to
a Grand Jury, Attorney General
Fugene Cook said today he hoped
to broaden a probe of what he
calls graft in state government to
“get the big boys.”
Cook said he was resuming an
investigation delayed by the spe
cial session of the legislature. Just
before the Assembly closed shop
yesterday, Cook’s secretary testi
mony on charges of corruption was
revealed to the Senate.
In a statement to the Senate
Finance Committee in a hush-hush
‘session last week, Cook declared
‘he hiad a confession from the ‘dit
tle boys” in a case involving dis
‘position of $255,000 worth of war
surplus materials.
Some of the property, Cook said,
was “illegally disposed of by a
state official or officials.”
Further, he added, the property
“was channeled through a person
or persons from whom confessions
have been obtained.”
But Cook added: “If I submit it
to the Grand Jury now, the ‘Little
man’ is going to get hurt, and
somebody is going free.”
Cook said he hoped to follow up
his leads quickly with legal action.
Indications were .there would be
further announcements tomorrow
or early next week. |
Cook’s testimony in the 34-page,
8,000-word transcript of the com
mittee’s inquiry did not name any‘
state agency or official. After the‘
hearing, however, State Sen. Wil
lis Smith of Carrollfon said the%
school department was involved in |
the surplus property investigation.
School Superintendent M. D,
Collins and his assistants prompt
ly denied any losses and said they
could account for all state proper-
Ve
Cook said he had a gonfession
“that no records were kept on
part of it” (the surplus property).

B-H Reporter Makes
Scientific Di
cientific Discovery
By ED THILENIUS, City Editor
Have you ever wondered how many waves crash on the
beach during a six-hour period of tide changes?
If you have, you are only one among millicns.
Mo find an answer tu this com- water, not only to drink, but a
plex question cf beach goers
the world over the Bauner-Herald
assigned one of its reportrs the
task of finding a solution.
Whereby George Abney, jr., took
along with him on his recent va
cation to Daytona Beach, Florida,
a unique assignment—that of wave
counting.
Now there is certain equipment
that a wave counter must have.
First you need a supply of stay
hot hot do%s to keep your appetite
satisfied. You can’t count waves
on an empty stomach—might get
seasick. Then there’s a jug of ice
down the Oconee to where it joins
the Ocmulgee and becomes the
Altamaha, and on down to Dar
ien, Ga., on the coast.
Paadling and drifting the en
tire way, Swartz and Brown
didn’t even carry a motor along.
Herbie is a student at Athens
High School, and is one of the
school’s top football players.
Ned played football at AHS
and after graduation attended
Augusta Military Academy in
Virginia where he was a stand
out gridster.
The teen-agers are not after
setting a record, so no deadline
was set on their reaching the
coast. . The trip will likely be
:-112?17 because no motor was car-
There has been good weather
since Sunday. but some difficul
ties were presented by the rising
water from the rains last week
The boatmen are camping along
the way. They carried glong food
and bare necessities so they
could travel light.

Soon a police squad car ar

Ziskin snorted.
“That’s no monster,” he an
