(UP) — Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity held an initiation in a rock quarry 25 miles east of here May 26—and it could cost the fraternity some money. A suit for $59,000 was filed yesterday against the fraternity and 66 members of its Fresno chapter by Charles and Carl Chamberlain, who operate the Bates Station granite quarry. The suit alleged: The Chamberlains were forced to close the quarry after the initiation because a giant boom, double drum, derrick, air compressor, jack hammer, water pump and other machinery were damaged or destroyed. The suit also said the initiation was held by the quarry operators’ FULLERTON'S CITRUS QUARANTINE LIFTED Revocation of the cliff quarantine which was lished in the city of February 1947 was announced day by County Agricultural missioner Dixson W.

Berggren began alterations. At right is the way building looks today. Mr. Berggren at right is seen showing his two children Liberty Bell Symbol of Independence Drive now under way. Most everyone envisions a pretty little home they would like to own some day. Many Americans are doing the one thing which will turn that dream into reality, and that is saving a portion of their income systematically. A stalwart advocate of that custom is Harold A. Berggren, supervisor of the Electronics shop at the U.S. Navy Underwater Sound Laboratory, New London, Connecticut. Due to this habit of regular saving by investing in U.S. Savings Bonds Mr. Berggren now owns his own home at Old Lyme, Connecticut. Before starting on this venture he had built up a substantial reserve of Savings Bonds which provided him with sufficient security to permit the utilization of his regular earnings for the added expense incurred, some $7000. Married, and the father of a son, 12, and a daughter, 7, Mr. Berggren had long dreamed of a home of his own where he could be independent and enjoy a happy home life with his wife and children. The dream began to materialize in 1946 when he purchased an old garage, vintage of 1923. Despite its age Mr. Berggren realized that it was structurally sound and was able to visualize the improvements needed to convert it into a modern home. In the fall of 1946 he set about the task of rebuilding. Doing the bulk of the work during spare time with some help from relatives, and from Mrs. Berggren, he remodeled the entire exterior. The interior job included new partitions, walls, ceilings, installation of a heating system, plumbing, electrical system, and insulation for six large rooms and bath. He did a half-cellar, cemented the floor and walls, installed a heater and 'aundry and still had space for a workshop. Mrs. Berggren did all the painting and paperhanging. With all this completed he moved into the home in June, 1947. To date he has partially completed landscaping the property and has started construction of a garage. Mr. Berggren shares with his son David enthusiastic support for the symbol and slogan of this year's Savings Bonds drive, the "Liberty Bell" and the slogan "Save for Your Independence." When asked "what does the Liberty Bell mean to you," David replied: "It means Independence for our country, the right to freedom of speech, of press and of religion. It means we can do anything inside of the law without anyone telling us not to do it." And David wants to start investing in U.S. Savings Bonds just as soon as he is old enough to earn some money. As he explains it: "They make it possible for people to have their own homes, such as we have, because their children, and to retire when they are old." U.S. Savings Bonds enable Berggren to build his home out arranging any further ing. Having realized this fiction he continues to include Savings Bonds looking forward the day when these Bonds will pay the money necessary to care his children, and to when he can retire with theization that in his home dwelling that a real American holds love—companionship—individually maintained an outstanding record for Payroll participation with 65 per cent of the some 600 employees employed by Mr. Berggren was one of the sign up for the purchase savings Bonds.

Most of the visitors worked hard to convince everyone, including themselves, that they were young and gay, and having a wonderful time.

U. S. Savings Bonds enabled Mr. Berggren to build his home without arranging any further financing. Having realized this first ambition he continues to invest in Savings Bonds looking forward to the day when these Bonds will supply the money necessary to educate his children, and to the day when he can retire with the realization that in his home dwells all that a real American holds dear; love—companionship—industry—pride of country and of the individual, and independence. Mr. Berggren is an outstanding example of the U. S. Savings Bonds slogan: "Save for Your Independence." The U. S. Navy Underwater Sound Laboratory, under direction of Capt. W. L.

WASHINGTON — The Senate Finance committee today agreed to increase to $3600 the maximum annual wages on which social security taxes are collected to finance old-age pensions.

NEW YORK—A heavy-footed rally followed a sharp morning decline in the stock market today. Losses running to more than two points were lowered and in a few cases wiped out. The recovery was far from decisive, however, for declines of fractions to a point or so remained in a clear majority. Trading was fastest during the morning break, slower on the comeback. Turnover touched a rate of around 1,500,000 shares for the full session. Among the largest losers at one time were U.S. Steel, Bethlehem Steel, General Motors, Chrysler, American Telephone, Santa Fe, Superior Oil of California, Kennecott Copper, Allied Chemical, Dow Chemical, General Electric and Du Pont. CLEVELAND—The council of little Highland Heights village early today voted 8-2 to discharge its 58-year-old police chief on charges he "consorted" with the mayor's wife and otherwise misused his duty time and the village car.
