This is especially true, he said, of departments requesting new positions when they already have personnel authorization in many vacant posts. HE NAMED the sheriff, health department, welfare department and hospital as fitting into the category of overstating needs. Oxley said consideration should be given to deleting authorized positions, if they have stood open more than three months.

GREAT AMERICANS by WILDEAN MARK TWAIN A boy stood on a wharf in Hannibal, Missouri...watching a steamboat—with its colorful cargo of circus troupers and minstrels—chug up the Mississippi. The sight stirred his child's imagination. The year—1845. The boy—Samuel Langhorne Clemens. With these vivid memories from his childhood—Clemens went on to become America’s foremost humorist. Using Mark Twain as his pen name, he wrote such favorites as Tom Sawyer, Nuckleberry Finn and Pudd’nhead Wilson. Always anxious to relax and replenish his stock of humorous anecdotes…Twain would reminisce with old friends at Klaproth’s Tavern…sipping his favorite bourbon, Old Crow—this year celebrating its 125th anniversary just as we are celebrating the 125th anniversary of the birth of Mark Twain. Twain delighted in travel. He journeyed from the American west to the shores of Europe—reporting for magazines and gathering material for his books…Roughing It, Innocents Abroad—and finally—his fascinating autobiography.

OVER BACK-COUNTRY ROADS AT 45 WITH A SKY-HIGH LOAD OF TIMBER Chevy middleweight shows the big rigs how it's done! That's a 6303 medium-duty Chevrolet powered by a 283-cu.-in. V8.

V8. But there's sure nothing medium-duty about the load. Mr. J. E. Blankinship, Arkansas logging contractor, says both of his torsion-spring 6303's "move along at 40 to 50 miles per hour with 55,000 pounds gross weight and maintain a 5-trip-a-day schedule with no trouble at all." Figure the money you save when you've got a medium-duty truck that can cover 30,000 back-country miles a year with a high-tonnage load! We've never seen anything like the amount of praise truck owners are heaping on Chevy's new torsion spring suspension. Owners like the fact the truck handles a whole lot easier, can move faster off the road without beating the driver to death and shaking loose all the sheet metal. They like the idea of extra thousands of miles before trade-in! . . . Drive a '60 Chevy just once. It's a whole new experience. Chevy middleweight averages 200 miles of back roads a day dogging timber out of the woods and delivering it to the mill at Crossett, Arkansas. CAUSE THEY WORK MORE!
