a deep sea trip by Walter (Jumbo)
Brown aboard his speedboat. The
lads started out at 8 A. M. and re-turned
at 3 P. M. with a bountiful
supply of porgles.. Mr. Brown has
promised to take other boys out as
often as business will permit.

the week. The Hawks overwhelm-ed
he Tigers, 31 to 3. In the second
inning first baseman Woods of the
victors lashed out a grand slam
home run. In the other encounter

Draft Registration of Youttis Begins Monday
Southwest Civics
Defends Stand on
Assessment Issue i
Want Equitable Levies,
Whether High or Low^
President Albert Says
Editor, The LEADER.
Sir:
The prominence given by your
valued paper in the issue of Aug.
12 reporting our action, and in the
next issue reporting the investiga-tion
being made l)y the Northeast
Civic" -Association is the kind of
reporting that makes for better
community spirit.
The study being made by the
Northeast Civic Association, while
critical, is not unfriendly. Th'eir
most serious objection seems to be
based on the costs of Installation.
Your editorial "Has" Freeport
'Horseback' Assessor?" .repeats the
same argument. Perhaps the use
of the word "Horseback," though
descriptive, was unfortunate. No
slight was intede'd to Village Asses-sor
August Petry or his staff, but
rather it was meant to express our
disapproval of the enormous waste
of energy in duplicating something
that has already been done at a
cos^t that the Village of Freeport
would be unable to pay.
The Cleminshaw appraisal was
adopted In 1940 after ascertaining
facts that all competent appraisers
.require before an opinion of v^lue .ea.n.'.'.tooc «XP*>efcne>tl: ?n> addition-^to-il,
aine appraisal" of lot values, fac-tual
data relative to type construc-tion,
improvements, age of original
building and of additions and meas-urements-
are recorded for each
improved parcel.
The action .or the Board of Super-visors
In compromising the heavy
certioraries that struck the first
Cleminshaw Assessment Roll eouM
be interpreted in other ways than
set forth in your-editorial. Per-haps
the fault lies with our one-party
system In Nassau where the
voice of the minority Is so weak
that -it cannot be heard except in a
court. Perhaps the Supervisors
erred in not standing their guns at
that time. But that a compromise
was "made does not weaken the
soundness of the Appraisal. , -
We think that the main point has
been missed—namely, that if the

Between N.Y. Yankees

The Memorial clubhouse build-ing
fund of Henry Theodore Mohr
Post, V.F.W., has been augmented
$3,000 as a result of the successful
football game between the New

the All-America Conference, and

totals about $12,000. Mr. Pellicio
added that witji the excitement of
the football game out of the way,
the drive to raise the remaining?
$18,000 necessary to reach the goal
and get the building started would
be pressed to success.
-Commander Pellicio said ticket
sales I'or the game' totaled. 8,52.3,
and that approximately 8,100 paid
customers witnessed the contest
which the Yankees won by a score
of 35 to 27. making the gross re-t-
aipts $17,239. After various ex-penses
had been met, about $4,000
was-left Cor the V.F.W. post. How-ever,
local expenses, such as print-ing
and the like, reduced the net
receipts to approximately $3,000

He said only a small percentage of
those in attendance came from the

the entire project was handled con-trasting
the situations they met in
other larger communities with
Freeport, to the latter's advantage.
He also said a reprecentatfve of
the Yankee management had prom-ised
to bring the team to Freeport

Y., THURSDAY, AUGUST 2fi,' 1948 FIVE GENTS A Draft Registration of Youttis Begins Monday Southwest Civics Defends Stand on Assessment Issue i Want Equitable Levies, Whether High or Low^ President Albert Says Editor, The LEADER. Sir: The prominence given by your valued paper in the issue of Aug. 12 reporting our action, and in the next issue reporting the investiga-tion being made l)y the Northeast Civic" -Association is the kind of reporting that makes for better community spirit. The study being made by the Northeast Civic Association, while critical, is not unfriendly. Th'eir most serious objection seems to be based on the costs of Installation. Your editorial "Has" Freeport 'Horseback' Assessor?" .repeats the same argument. Perhaps the use of the word "Horseback" though descriptive, was unfortunate. No slight was intede'd to Village Asses-sor August Petry or his staff, but rather it was meant to express our disapproval of the enormous waste of energy in duplicating something that has already been done at a cos^t that the Village of Freeport would be unable to pay. The Cleminshaw appraisal was adopted In 1940 after ascertaining facts that all competent appraisers .require before an opinion of v^lue .ea.n.'.'.tooc «XP*>efcne>tl: ?n> addition-^to-il, aine appraisal" of lot values, fac-tual data relative to type construc-tion, improvements, age of original building and of additions and meas-urements- are recorded for each improved parcel. The action .or the Board of Super-visors In compromising the heavy certioraries that struck the first Cleminshaw Assessment Roll eouM be interpreted in other ways than set forth in your-editorial. Per-haps the fault lies with our one-party system In Nassau where the voice of the minority Is so weak that -it cannot be heard except in a court. Perhaps the Supervisors erred in not standing their guns at that time. But that a compromise was "made does not weaken the soundness of the Appraisal. , - We think that the main point has been missed—namely, that if the (Continued on Page 16) Pro Football Game Nets $3,000 For V.F.W. Building Fund 8,100 at Contest Between N.Y. Yankees And Chicago Rockets The Memorial clubhouse build-ing fund of Henry Theodore Mohr Post, V.F.W., has been augmented $3,000 as a result of the successful football game between the New York Yankees, 1948 champions of the All-America Conference, and the Chicago Rockets, itt the Muni-cipal Stadium last .Veek, Com-mander Domonic Pellk-lo announc-ed today. As n result the fund now totals about $12,000. Mr. Pellicio added that witji the excitement of the football game out of the way, the drive to raise the remaining? $18,000 necessary to reach the goal and get the building started would be pressed to success. -Commander Pellicio said ticket sales I'or the game' totaled. 8,52.3, and that approximately 8,100 paid customers witnessed the contest which the Yankees won by a score of 35 to 27. making the gross re-t- aipts $17,239. After various ex-penses had been met, about $4,000 was-left Cor the V.F.W. post. How-ever, local expenses, such as print-ing and the like, reduced the net receipts to approximately $3,000 which will be turned into the build-ing fund.

He said only a small percentage of those in attendance came from the city. He added the management of the teams praised the way in which the entire project was handled con-trasting the situations they met in other larger communities with Freeport, to the latter's advantage. He also said a reprecentatfve of the Yankee management had prom-ised to bring the team to Freeport in 1949 If the V.F.W. post wanted to sponsor another game.
