'‘By various and divers means that some of its members are artfully skilled in the manly arts of self defense .... ‘ Whereas, it behooves the no vice and lesser skilled-members to have knowldge of such infor mation for their proteefion, now, therefore, be it, resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring: "That all members of the Gen eral Assembly who are skilled in judo, ‘rassling,’ boxing, aid fisti cuffs shall be required to insert such information in-the Legisla tive Manual.” Speaker of the House Sol Blatt promptly disposed of the Dobbins suggestion by referring it to the House Committee on Military, Public, and Municipal Affairs. - ' Mission Banquet At Joanna Church A Youth-Parent Mission ban quet will be held in the recrea tion room of the Joanna Baptjst church on Saturday at 7:30.
