Oshkosri NortKwesfern 4 Aug. 22, 1955 Men Responsible For I I v. II' Burning Boat Caught Two Plead Guilty to Grand Larceny Charge; Third Denies Being Involved Police officials said they planned to lake action against the Winneconne man who bought the stolen motors. Apprehension of the three Oslikosh mpn was credited to the alertness of police officers who were sent about 3 o'clock Saturday morning to investigate a fire reported near the lakeshore behind the Btickstaff Company. While on their way they saw an auto being driven in the vicinity.

Noting the odd time of day, they jotted down Patrons Of Tavern Fined For Gambling A tavern proprietor appeared in Municipal Court today on a charge of permitting gambling in his tavern, and two patrons of th tavern were fined for gambling. Eugene F. Hoppe, 463 E. Oak proprietor of the Giant Grip Tavern, 382 High appeared on the charge but his arraignment was postponed until Wednesday morning when he asked permission to consult an attorney before entering any plea. Ted Golla, 210 High and Carl Stieg, State Hotel, pleaded guilty to charges of gambling and wer fined $25 and costs each.

Oshkosh police filed charges against the three after investigating a complaint by a woman that a crap game was underway in the tavern. Police said they heard voices saying "Come seven," and "Come four" before entering, and upon going into a room of the tavern found Golla, Stieg and another man shooting dice on the floor. The third man either mingled with other patrons or left the tavern before his named was obtained. Catlin Bill Is Safeguard For Workers The Catlin bill outlawing union contributions to political campaigns is a safeguard to the rights of workers, declared Leo Martin, Waupaca, president of the Wisconsin Federation of Young Republicans, at the Winnebago County VGOP picnic Sunday afternoon. Martin defended the law which came under constant attack by the Wisconsin State Federation of Labor at its convention in Oshkosh last week.

Corporations have long been forbidden to make direct contributions to political causes, he said, and later cooperatives were put under the same ban. The Catlin bill now extends that to include labor unions. Actually, he said, it is a protection to the working man. Previously, if a union, by a slim majority, voted to support a candidate some of the funds given to the campaign represented money given by the minority, even though that minority was opposed to the candidate. The Catlin law assures that the laborer's money will not be used against the laborer's intentions.

The annual picnic of the county Young Republicans was held at the Harry Thomson farm on the Vin-land Road. The group decided to aid the senior. Republican organization of the county in conducting a Republican booth at the Winnebago County Fair next week. Most of the afternoon and evening was spent informally.

LrRoy-Oshkosh Chairman During a meeting Saturday at the local Elks Clubhouse, Joseph H. LeRoy was appointed to serve again this year as 19.r6 "March of Dimes" chairman for the City of Oshkosh. The campaign will be held early next year but definite dates have not been announced as yet. Funds raised during the event will be divided between the national or ganization of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis and the Winnebago County chapter. R.

J. White, chairman of the Winnebago County Chapter of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, this morning reported receipt of a $100 check given to the chapter by an Oshkosh woman as a contribution towards the contin uing fight against polio. And, in an unprecedented move to save the "March of Dimes" na tionwide program of providing necessary care of polio patients, the Winnebago County Chapter today transferred $2,294.32 of its "sur plus" funds to the national organ ization. Mr. White explained that the money is to be earmarked and pooled for distribution among chapters of the National Founda tion which are confronted with bills for patient care beyond the limits of their financial resources.

Adjustment Necessary "The nature of polio, unpredictable and geographically without pattern, has made a nationwide adjustment of 'March of Dimes' resources necessary if the vital pa ticnt' aid program is to survive," Mr. White said. Cautioning that polio isn't licked yet although the promise of the Salk vaccine is bright, Mr. White pointed to the current heavy incidence of polio in Outagamie Coun ty and the increasing number of Winnebago County cases as evi dence of the work still to be done and of the continued need for gen erous "March of Dimes" support. He cited a recent statement is sued by the National Foundation which showed that the 195: "March of Dimes" total for the country fell short by approximate ly $12,000,000 of meeting polio needs of this year.

Through the call for surpluses to 1,780 chapters which are in the black, he added, it is expected some $10,000,000 will be made available for 1,274 chapters now in the red because of heavy in roads to help polio patients. Mr. White emphasized that the $2,29432 sent by the Winnebago County chapter to the national organization will eventually be paid back to the local group.

The negotiations with the Chinese Reds in Geneva are still very much deadlocked over Communist demands for control over Chinese students in this country. Some U.S.

diplomats have' been discussing the idea of calling a re cess in the Geneva talks to prod the Chinese into some action. This may be one of the issues taken up by Mr, Eisenhower and Dulles.
