HAWATHA, KANS., March 5—DIGGING OUT—
Three men stand in the road to survey their work as they dig out a car trapped in a deep snowdrift along this road, 2½ miles southwest of here. The plow, which had cleared a path down the road, by-passed the stalled vehicle. Near here a snow plow operator found a man frozen to death inside his car, but it could not be determined if this was the automobile.
Joint Tenant Law Has Many Foes
SACRAMENTO (P)—Just about everybody, it seems, wants to have a hand in repealing the Joint Tenancy law amendment passed last year.
Five repealing bills were introduced yesterday, the first day of the legislature. One of them was sponsored by 61 of the 80 Assemblymen.
The 1951 amendment requires court proceedings rather than an affidavit to terminate Joint tenancy of real property which goes down the road, by-passed the stalled vehicle.

Community Rises Against Negro Home Buyer
RICHMOND, Calif. (P)—Bricks were hurled today at a home just purchased by a Negro, and a rock crashed through a window of a real estate woman who sold it to him.
One brick smashed a window in the home bought by Wilbur D. Gary, 42, a Negro building contractor, in an all-white residential district.
Gary was in the office of Neitha Williams, who sold him the $8700 residence in the Rolling Woods suburb, when a rock broke a $75 plate glass window.
Gary, a World War II veteran and father of seven children, immediately declared he would "not sell the house now for any price."
But a movement to purchase the home was launched by the Rolling Woods Improvement Association.
The association's board of directors said in a statement it would negotiate for purchase of the property from the Negro family for a reasonable profit "as a fair way to solve our present difficulty and restore harmony to our community."
The association hired a Richmond attorney, Russell King, to handle the legal matter.
Gary, however, reiterated that he was going ahead with plans to occupy the home and would build a bedroom above the garage to provide additional space for his large family.
"There's no truth to the rumor that I would sell for $4000 more for this home."

GARY, Ind. (P) — S persons were injured,iously, last night when commuter train crashed into the rear.
The association hired a Richmond attorney, Russell King, to handle the legal matter.
Gary, however, reiterated that he was going ahead with plans to occupy the home and would build a bedroom above the garage to provide additional space for his large family.
"There's no truth to the rumor that I would sell for $4000 more than I paid for the home," Gary told newsmen. "Right now I won't sell at any price since I heard that kind of talk."
A small white cross was stuck in a flower bed at the home yesterday.
Caught in The Maelstrom?
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The income tax collector, faced with 2½ million returns to process here, is hiring extra employees wholesale.
Thirty showed up yesterday, were herded into a room for an hour and a half's lecture, fingerprinted and administered the oath. Then they were set to work. One young man held back.
"Take your coat off," said Joe Jensen, the assistant cashier and their instructor.
"I don't want to take my coat off," the young man replied.
"Okay," said Jensen, "but let's get busy. Carry those envelopes over to the mall-opening machine."
"Look mister," the young man said, "I don't need a job. I just came here to get some help in making out my return."

CHINESE REPATRIATION PLANNED BY MALAYA
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaya (UP)—The Federation of Malaya government is proposing to repatriate Chinese who wish to return to China with their families. The government has asked the legislative council to appropriate $133,-000 to give the scheme a three months' trial.
Purpose of the voluntary repatriation scheme is to get rid of Chinese who feel they have closer ties to China than to Malaya.

Commuter Train Collides with Empty One in Station; 67 Hurt
GARY, Ind. (AP) — Sixty-seven persons were injured, none seriously, last night when a crowded commuter train from Chicago crashed into the rear end of an empty train in the Gary station.
All the injured were riding in the first car of a four-car Chicago, South Shore and South Bend electric express train. Only six of the injured remained in hospitals. Others were discharged after being treated for cuts and bruises.
Police said ice on a switch may have caused the express train, which carried about 200 passengers, to take the wrong siding. The other train which had just discharged all passengers was in the siding, west of the station.
The engineer, Jack Teets, 52, of South Bend, said the train was moving only 20 miles an hour as it entered the station.
"Normally we would have pulled in on a track on the other side of the platform, but the open switch threw us into the rear of the other train standing on the side track," Teets said.
ZONING RULES BEATEN
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — "Is this a 15-cent zone?" inquired the passenger before boarding the bus.
No, explained the driver. It would cost him 20 cents. The cheaper zone started one block farther.
"Well, if you have time," the old gentleman suggested, "let me walk down there—then pick me up." The driver complied.

like electric drying! An electric automatic
clothes dryer ends the need for carrying heavy
baskets of damp clothes out into the
yard. Instead of that, you dry the clothes
conveniently, right near where they are
washed. It makes both jobs—washing and
drying—easier, keeps housewives happier all
the way through washday.
