It would be difficult to decide which group has the more exciting time at these annual festivities up at Great Lakes â€" the Arden Shore‘ youngsters or the generous sailors who chip in to provide them with a grand dinner and an armload of presents, and who extend to them the friendliest welcome and spirit of fellowship. s _ Next Saturday night, December 7, the Winnetka Arden Shore commitâ€" tee, of which Mrs. Sam Clark is the new chairman, succeeding Mrs. Thaddeus R.

The Senate apâ€" proved the conference committee reâ€" port, but the House insisted upon the Nichols apportionment plan.

Pitner, "Distributing jobs in the civil service according to where people happen to live (Nichâ€" ols ~apportionment plan or quota vlan)} is geographic patronage and the League of Women Voters wants none of it.
