In the next three or four months the structural frame will be pour ed. Everyone will be able to see what the building will look like by the time they leave for the sum mer, Simmons said. Simmons is very optimistic about the job. He hopes to complete the building in several months short of contract time. McKee Construc tion Co. was allowed two years to finish construction. “I appreciate the interest and cooperation of all the boys around here,” Simmons stated. “There have been several who have fol lowed this job from the start, checking on our progress every day. I also would like to thank the boys for one thing in particular— we didn’t lose one stick of wood when the Thanksgiving bonfire _\ya§r^“ld.” BRITAIN TO TIGHTEN HER AIR DEFENSES LONDON, March 10 —(A>)_War games off Gibraltar have shown Britain’s fleet to be “pretty vul nerable” to air attack, an admir alty spokesman said today.

The Arabs feel that there is no clear er way to establish ownership of a country than by living in it. “The Arabs have claimed this land since nearly 1500 years ago when they conquered it,” he said. He said that a large number of the important people in this area had been assassinated since his pending book on these countries had been sent to the printers. _ “I have seriously considered putting a note in the front of the book ex plaining that the names of the im portant individuals in my book could very well be the names of assassinated people by the time my readers can read it.” So You Know A&M?
