Present plans for the celebration call for the setting up Of booths in the Roy Shopping Center area. Organizations throughout the area will be asked to participate in the two day affair. Col. James Kelley, of the Roy Lions Club, outlined the organiza- tions plans to the city council. He informed the Roy governing body that the proceeds from the celebration would go towards the purchase of a new ambulance. Col. Kelley told the council that the closing of the streets was requested chiefly for safety reasons. He stated that the carnival booths were to be located on both sides of the street and that there would be a great many adults and children crossing back and forth. The council gave approval for closing of the street from 10 a.m. until the crowds broke up at night. The city officials were also told by the Air Force colonel that the Lions club would insure that the area was left in a clean condition. V i- with him all the time he was in the service.

Bud has been raised in the traditions of the newspaper world and so he should know. His father was a newspaper man when Bud, an only child, was born Sept. 23, 1932, in Glenwood, Iowa. Later, his father owned a newspaper in Iowa. Taking ail things into consideration, it was only natural that Bud should want to follow in the footsteps of his father, a man whom he loved greatly and respected.

They also questioned the relevancy of the personal contained in the questions tests.
