Angry Citizens Stop
Jehova’s Witnesses
School Teacher
HALL, Ind., (A5)—A school prin
cipal who refuses to salute the
flag for religious reasons failed
to show up at school yesterday,
24' hours after a roadblock of
angry citizens stopped him.
A small group of parents, most
of them women, gathered at the
red brick school. Mrs. Robert
Ratts, a leader of the group op
posing the principal, said the
principal made no attempt to re
turn to school and his classes met
without a teacher.
“The easy way would be to re
sign and get out, but I won’t do
it,” said principal William Lewis,
38, a member of the Jehovah’s
Witnesses sect.
Lewis said he will ask the Mor
gan County Circuit Court in Mar
tinsville for an order to protect
him in continuing his work at the
Gregg Township Grade School in
Hall.

Franchot Tone And •
Barbara Payton To Wed
HOLLYWOOD, (/P) — Franchot
Tone’s face may look as if it had
tangled with a food mixer when
he leaves a California hospital in
two weeks.
3
Doctors attending the actor say
they don’t know how his profile
will be for movie closeups when
they remove the bandages. “In a
general way,” says Dr. Leland
House, who patched up Tone’s
smashed facade, “it’s reasonably
certain he’ll look like Franchot
Tone, but as for closeups, who
knows?”
Tone and his lawyer, Kenneth
Chantry, were to confer Tuesday
on whether to seek a criminal
complaint against actor Tom Neal,
whose lethal fists sent Tone to
the hospital. The actors came to
blows early last Friday morning
over the affections of Barbara
Payton, a voluptuous blond movie
actress.
Miss Payton, professing an un
divided love for Tone, told news
men Sunday after ^he had visited
his hospital room that he had
proposed and she had agreed to
marry him in the very near fu
ture. She was to have married
Neal in San Francisco last Sun
day, and a few weeks ago she
said Tone would be her next hus
band.

Port Townsend Family
Wins Five Salmon Derbies
PORT TOWNSEND, Wash., (/P)
—What’s their secret? For derbies
has become habitual this year for
members of the Vernon Helwick
family of Port Townsend.
They have won five major
awards in a series of salmon fish
ing events, much to the embar
rassment of Helwick, who didn’t
show up to accept his most recent
prize Sunday. It was for winning
the Boat Haven fishermen’s derby.
Helwick caught a 12-pound fl
ounce silver for the $123 first
prize. His wife, only slightly out
done, took second prize of $73.80
with a fish weighing 12 pounds.
She showed up at noon to accept
both awards. Helwick was no
where in sight.
“Guess we’re going to have to ;
leave town,” Helwick remarked
later. Here’s why:
A week earlier little Billie Hel
wick, 9, won the onnual kid’s
derby. He carried off a new bi
cycle with a 12-pound 11-ouncie
salmon. In the Labor Day derby
Helwick won first prize of $71 with j
a 10-pound 5-ounce silver. And on '
August 26, in the main Port
Townsend derby, Helwick won the
$75 fourth prize with a 14-pound
13-ounce salmon.
