FRED NOETH TO DIRECT RED CROSS CANVASS

\ The county-wide canvass of homes,

local business firms and organiza­tions in the 1945 Red Cross War Fund which will be launched March 1, will be directed by Fred J. Noeth of 65 Jerusalem Avenue, Hickeville. His appointment as chairman of the village Canvass Division for the drive was announced today by Henry U. Harris, general chairman. Mr. Noeth will direct an organization of more than 5,000 volunteer workers organized in ten sections covering Nassau with captains supervising the canvass of 67 communities.

"Mr. Noeth's wide knowledge of our county gained in 11 years of newspaper work in Nassau and his proven ability as section chairman for his area in the Red Cross Fund drives of 1943 and 1944 are of ex­ceptional value in this work which he has agreed to undertake," Mr. Harris stated. /

In defeating Glen Cove, the Sea Cliff High School boys' ieam stretch­ed its string of victories to six be­fore retiring for the holiday sea­son. There was no question through­out the entire game, who would come out on the long end of the score. And a long end it was with the local boys gathering 32 points while the losers were allowed 11.

Ip spite of Glen Cove's determined efforts with close guarding and rush­ing tactics, the Cliftons rolled along at an even pace, gradually increas­ing their lead which started after a minute of play. The first half end­ed 16 to 9 for the locals. During the second half the home boys added 16 more points while the Covers were only able to gather 2 points on one field goal by Paul who was high scorer for the losing side.

WATCH NIGHT SERVICES

This Sunday evening, at Glen r e c^ j^»

cision to set up its Planning Com­mission in the New Year, County Executive Sprague declared:

"The establishment of this import­ant commission is consonant with plans for t ie future growth of our county. Planning in Nassau has hitherto bean a municipal matter, exlusively in the hands of compe­tent local boards. That they have been careful in safeguarding their respective localities in towns and villages is jreadily apparent. Their jurisdiction, | of necessity, has been limited. Master planning on a coun­ty-wide scfrte has always been recognized 'as an eventual county function. Provision for it are in­corporated p the County Charted, i

"On the [threshold of a postwar period which promises to bring to Nassau unprecedented expansion, I believe that it is now incumbent on the administration to set up a Nas-

, sau County Planning Commission whose duties will be to coordinate the efforts Uf local planning units, and to harmonize them into an organized, pver-all pattern for a

I'Greater Naisau of Tomorrow.' The , County is fortunate in securing the voluntary services of eight such prominent and qualified men to di-

On recommendation, these individuals—79 in number— will get a ten percent temporary consideration. They had complained that all had volunteered 10 percent reductions in depression days, were eoual victims of rises in the cost of living, were in higher income brack­ets with different standards and should get emergency coiiceeaions. When it was discovered that an ad­justment to this group would coat only $27,300 for the whole year, the Board of Supervisors unanimously voted the 10 per cent. No employee getting over $5,999 is benefited.

For the second successive year, Farm and Home Week at Cornell University is being cancelled because of wartime restrictions and short­ages in feeding, housing and travel. It has usually been held in Feb­ruary and in normal times has at­tracted as many aa 14,000 rural visitors. The Cornell campus has much of the aspect of an armed camp. There are approximately 6,-500 students at the university of which about 40 percent are enrolled in army and navy training pro­grams. Instruction must go on un­interruptedly, the college head.
