GOOD MORNING! are a lot of people who sing with real feeling, but not for other people. VOL. 117 NO. 171 Moral Needs Cited Code For U. S.

Given Legion At Convention M'Farland, Goldwater Opening Speakers As Veterans Begin Meeting At Douglas DOUGLAS, June 19 (P)-The needs of America in the modern world were outlined at the opening of the state convention of 1 the American Legion Thursday by Sen. Barry Goldwater (R-Ariz) and Democratic Gov. McFarland. "America needs to keep strong economically and spiritually," the Senator said. "We know that to keep alive the American way of life we must continue to fight and fight hard," the governor told the group.

More than 600 legionnaires from around the state had registered by Thursday morning and others were still arriving. Committee meetings were in the spotlight Thursday afternoon with the convention banquet scheduled Thursday night. Goldwater condemned the overseas information service for painting a picture of Americans as materialists. "We are not a material he said. "We are a spiritual people." He said keeping strong economically and spiritually is more important than "the spreading of our troubles over the world." He said the defense of the United States in recent years has become wrapped up with the search for peace and that the basic problem is the conflict between the American and Communist way of life.

The governor urged the Legion to lead the way in restoring America's "badly shaken national honor and an equally battered world prestige." World peace can only be maintained through patience, understanding and sound leadership, he said. "We will share all the evils in the world unless we combat them wholeheartedly." He said a proper, realistic foreign policy is needed. "But we must set the example at home through the media of intelligent leadership, intelligent planning, education and a deep set of patriotic principles that will spell out to the free world that here in America we practice what we preach, and we'll defend our way of life to the last man."

Stanley and Tony Suleski, Phoenix transients, who listed their ages as 30 and 48, respectively. City police arrested the brothers March 29 after Patrolman Ernest Lehman watched them empty the coins from a pinball machine at Kegler's Bowling Lanes, 1240 N. Stone Ave. The men had more than 150 assorted keys in their car, according to police.

They appeared to be simply playing the machine, but blocked the view with their bodies and a newspaper while opening the cash box, according to the officer. Judge W. C. Truman, of Pinal County, told the brothers: "You both know what your records are," after he pronounced sentence. He recommended treatment at the prison for Tony, who apparently has a painful nervous condition.

Both brothers have three-page FBI records, with numerous notations of investigation on alleged crimes ranging from narcotics to burglary. They have previously served. prison terms for felony convictions, but have been charged with misdemeanors most of the time, a according to their records. Deputy County Atty. Mary Stella Cota-Robles prosecuted the brothers, who were convicted by a jury June 12.

Second NEWS SECTION SECTION 'Bad Word' Leads To Mistrial First Juror-To-Be Utters 'Insurance' Insurance, a word that acts like bomb when mentioned in personal injury trials, exploded another Superior Court case yesterday before Judge Robert S. Tullar could call more than one prospective juror.

A mistrial was declared and the motor vehicle damage suit will go to trial at a later date. "Our Supreme Court (state) says we cannot mention the word insurance because it might conceivably prejudice our minds on the case," Judge Tullar told the jurors as he excused them. Odes Ferrin, 62, of 2639 N. Columbus is seeking damages of $50,000 from Raymond Larson, 2321 N. Madelyn Circle, an independent distributor for Star newspapers, and Sam Pilcher, one of Larson's employes.

A vehicle driven by Pilcher collided with Ferrin's auto on July 12, 1956, at Craycroft Rd. and Waverly St. Ferrin originally sought $100,000 for his injuries, but reduced the claim to $50,000. Just before the trial opened, the State Consolidated Publishing which publishes the Star, was dismissed as a defendant in the suit. Mrs.

Nora Wagner Norton, 2726 E. Croyden was the first prospective juror to be examined by Atty. S. Paul Ferrin, of Phoenix, who represents the plaintiff. "Is there anything about your feeling about damage suits that would prevent you from rendering an impartial judgment in this case?" Atty.

Ferrin asked. She answered: "I have been i in business in which we employed a number of people to drive trucks. I feel that the state requires insurance to be carried by a business house to cover their employes and I found that in any case we never had any serious accident-that the insurance company is quite willing to adequately settle any damages." Mrs. Norton was then after she admitted that her views might be prejudiced. Later in the judge's chambers, Atty.

Thomas Chandler moved for a mistrial; which was granted. Judge, Mrs. Tullar Norton told "didn't the intend other jurors to do anything wrong. She just made an observation on what she thought the law to be." He also explained that in the case of another juror, who mentioned the word insurance in reference to an occupation, a mistrial wouldn't have occurred.

Suit Challenges Santa Cruz Board Reimbursement NOGALES, June 19 -The constitutionality of an appropriation by the Legislature to reimburse members of the Santa Cruz County Board of Supervisors for money spent over its budget was questioned Thursday. A suit filed by the Santa Cruz County Taxpayers asks that the legislative act be ruled unconstitutional.

Plans For Boys Club Advancing Fund Drive To Aid Building Project Plans for establishing: a Tucson Boys Club moved out of low gear yesterday when the board of directors of the proposed club began preparations for a fund-raising drive to finance construction of a club building. A site for the club was donated last month to the North Tucson Lions, original sponsors of the club. The deed to the site, plus $2,000 already raised by the Lions, have been turned over to directors to get the project placed on a citywide basis.

Norman Green announced his resignation as president of the board, explaining that his decision was based on a desire to rule out any idea of political connection with the local Boys Club movement. He then appointed a Selection Committee, whose first task will be to choose a new president and board chairman and broaden the board's membership. Committee members include: Henry Leiber, chairman; Norman Green; John T. Tately, assistant manager, Sears Roebuck and Charles Elkins, president, North Tucson Lions; Lawrence Peifer, industrial relations manager, Douglas Aircraft and Harry O. Tennison, vice president, Southern Arizona Bank and Trust Co.

Guest speaker at the board meeting was Aaron H. Fahringer, west coast regional director of the Boys' Clubs of America, who told the board that getting a boys club started can be just as important to the community as bringing in a new industry. A committee to determine a fund-raising campaign goal will be appointed at a directors meeting to be held at 7:30 a.m. July 10 at the Pioneer Hotel. New members added to the board of directors yesterday are Robert Heyer, Harry Tennison, Roy Drachman, Melvin King, Marvin Johnson, Judge John Molloy and William Sartori.
