A spokesman in the sheriff's office said a motorist had come across the scene early today.

Details of die tragedy were not immediately Earlier, an Oklahoma City man died of a heart attack at the peak of the storm which contained tornadoes that churned straight ckwn a 50-mile stretch of central Oklahoma. The twisters were first reported over Anadarko before sundown and last reported over Oklahoma City. The farm family reported killed by the twister lived three miles west of Cromwell. 70 miles southeast of Oklahoma City. Loyd Walters, the heart-attnek victim, died as his house was damaged by wind.

The sprawling Oklahoma capital city was hardest hit. "It's impossible to make an estimate of damage at this time," said City Manager Sheldon Stirling early today. "Right now we are most thankful there were no deaths." Must of the damago here was from roofs torn from buildings and homes by the twister, which apparently passed over at rooftop level.

M. tomorrow in Mannineton 1 i i tir Albert V. Giampietro last nieht doggedly held to his contention that many of Vineland's munic ipal problems could best be solv ed by having a full-time Mayor.

The Tax-Economy Mayoralty candidate repeatedly told an audience of approximately 400 at Memorial Junior High School that he would serve full-time if elected May 10. Giampietro appeared with 13 other candidates for city office at the public meeting sponsored by the Vineland League of Women Voters. Mrs. Theodore C. Read, of Moorestown, serv-1 ed as moderator.

Tempo of the meeting rose to a high pitch on a number of occasions during a question and answer period which followed two-minute talks by each of the candidates. The question and answer session was marred by booing from the audience. The audience heard from the two rival candidates for Mayor, and from the two slates sponsored by the Republicans and Non-Partisans. Four Independent candidates also spoke. The candidates agreed unanimously on only one thing.

Not one was in favor of selling the municipal power olant. Tangle on Recreation Councilmen Giampietro and Garlock started things off by getting into a spirited face-to-face debate over the city recreation program. Garlock denied that not enough emphasis is being placed on the program for children of rthe lowest economic groups. Garlock was quick to point out that playgrounds were posted in all sections of the city, serving all children regardless of financial position. Giampietro fired back that the recreation department takes credit for programs which are sustained through financial aid by business concerns and volunteer help from the citizens.

"Still the recreation budget includes 000 of its $60,000 for salaries," he said. The Non-Partisan candidate retorted that the salaries are paidi to personnel to work with chil- dren on the summer playgrounds. He asked Giampietro if the Tax (Continued on Page 2, Col. 3) TWO CENTURIES N. Friday, April office assistance.

From Fun: Better Lives It might seem odd to talk about Halloween at the end of April, because everyone knows goblins and witches make their appearance only in October. Yet though six months have passed since the 1959 crop of Trick or Treaters swarmed over the community, it's interesting to note that some of them not only had fun but shared in a substantial accomplishment. A handful of Vineland youngsters, joining similar groups in other towns and cities elsewhere in the United States, did their Trick or Treating for the benefit of UNICEF, the United Nations' Childrens Fund. Instead of getting their market bags stuffed with more candy, pretzels, chewing gum, cookies and apples than they possibly could consume in a year's time, these relatively few children knocked at front doors and asked for small contributions to help needy children elsewhere in tht world. Was it worth the effort? You bet it was.

The final report for the 1959 effort known as Trick or Treat for UNICEF showed a total contribution of $1,500,000 to the Children's Fund. Approximately children from 10,000 communities in the U. S. enjoyed Halloween this way last year, and to a great extent they helped not only unknown youngsters elsewhere in the world but also themselves. "While the Trick or Treat pro gram most important aspect is to teach our children about their contemporaries throughout world, and to enable them to express their concern for (hose who need help, this year more than ever the material phase of the project.

prove a boon to UNICEF," writes the U. S. Committee for UNICEF in its recent bulletin. "Milk is needed for babies and vounesters whose health and growth are jeopardized by malnutrition. Whether this milk must be purchased (as appeared unavoidable when depleted stocks forced the United States for a time last year to curtail its donations of dried skim milk), or whether freight alone is to be paid as here tofore, each penny received by a UNICEF Trick or Treater has a greater value every year.

"Next Fall's Hallowe'en gram will once again briefly focus public attention on the humani tarian work of UNICEF which has rightly been called 'the greatest child welfare effort of all The young Trick or Treater may not think in such lofty terms, but he does know basic facts about UNICEF. Each year through the Trick or Treat program, more and more adults are becoming aware of these basic facts." Among these facts is that one cent will provide the vaccine to protect a child against TB; that five cents will provide ihe penicillin to cure a child of yaws. UNICEF should not be involved in the jungle of international politics, for, in the words of its committee, "a child's suffering and helplessness should be above controversy." Although Halloween of 1960 is still six months away, now is the proper time for Vineland adult groups to think about channeling their youngsters' Halloween spirit into constructive channels. We adults complain bitterly about the excesses of the Trick or Treat nights in Vineland, but we don't do anything about it. Once upon a time it used to be a lot of funi not just for the children but forj the adults who distributed goodies to the children of the neighbor-! hood.

But in the last few years! the homeowner has found that he has about a thousand children in his neighborhood. They come in large bands from all over the community, some of them driven in cars by their parents. What usedj to be fun now gets downright an-' noying. A really widespread Trick or Trick for UNICEF program in I this community might help return sanity to our streets during Halloween Week.

Hancock said the price has been pushed up by a national demand for asparagus and the supplies on hand are the lowest in years. He said that four years ago local growers received 12 cents a pound for grass. Last year the price was! 10 cents.

The growers contend that earli-! er cut-off dates by some proces- sors also effects the farmers prospects and the loss of a mar ket for a week for many could spell the difference between a profit and a loss.

Hoffa as president of the Teamsters Union. Jackson denied a motion by Hoffa's attorneys that he throw out the proceedings. Hoffa's attorneys immediately announced that they would go to the U.S. Court of Appeals in new attempt to avoid the trial. Other motions to forestall the trial already are pending for.

They were brought by court anpointed monitors who contend Hofa used some $000,000 of Detroit Local 299 Teamsters' funds in various personal business enterprises. One enterprise was a Florida real estate development in which Hoffa originally had a 45 per cent opt ion. In arguing the proceedings should be thrown out, Hoffa's attorneys contended that the courts have no pewer to remove him and that this is a privilege entirel within the hands of the union members w-ho had elected him.

More than 130 persons attended the testimonial at the North Italy Club to pay homage to the retiring educators. Honored were Miss Estella Blizzard, Mrs. Gertrude Rocker, Mrs. Cesarene Neill, Miss Julia Cummings and Mrs. Margaret Larcombe.

Only Mrs. Larcombe was not present for the commemorative dinner. Miss Anne Ostrander, president of the sponsoring Vineland Teachers Association and toastmistress for the affair, keynoted the fete by emphasizing the current shortage of teachers. "One might conceivably see advertisements for teachers as for other vocations some day soon," observed Miss Ostrander. Miss Estella Blizzard became a faculty member of the H.L.

Gertrude Rocker was eiven a eifl by Melvin Scott, a member of the Vineland Public School System.
