Allbon has enlarged the Record to two sections while publishing a Parrsboro weekly, as well. While lamenting the loss of popu-. lation with the closing of the mines Town Clerk Doug Maddison said it dropped from 7500 in 1956 to 5200, with many of the mining families moving to the Massachusetts area-town fathers point with pride at the new industry that has come in and hopes for -future ones. One of them is the new Spring-hill Institution with a prison population of about 400 and a civilian work crew of perhaps 300. "We 1 would have had to revert to a village if it weren't for the institution," Mrs.

Mont said. Her husband, the mayor, works there in administrative capacity during the day. "Everybody and his dog works there," laughed Mrs. Mildred Mac-Aloney, a nurse who worked during the last mine disaster, and a native of Lynn, Mass. Her son works at the institution.

"It's such a great place," Mrs. MacAloney said, "inmates break jail just before their parole so they'll be caught and taken back." Right now, Springhillers are in a dither about the big July 4tjh Old Home Week which will honor native son Johnny Mooring, three -time international fiddling contest champion. Last year, the town honored native daughter pop singer Anne Murray. An industrial park sits now where No. 2 and No.

4 mines used to be, but there is still not much to keep young people from leaving Spring-hill after high school. "Don't hurry," Town Clerk Doug Maddison tells you. "Time doesn't mean anything here." The Springhill Area Industrial Commission has put out a handsome brochure to lure new industry and tell what is already here. "Just since the mines closed," Mrs. Mont will tell you, "we've gotten, besides the institution, Buckingham Mills, (carpets); Surrette Battery; McLean's Frozen Foods; Halliday Craftsmen; Can-Am and Markland, Ltd.

(plastics); a small new coal mine, employing about 30; the best schools in Scotia, honest; they are all new but one, and that has been extensively renovated; new lighting systems; 46 miles of paved streets; over 300 new homes; new low-cost houisng and two new senior citizen complexes." Now, after a wet spring, Spring-hill is greener than ever. It is located on the Chignecto Isthmus, which links Nova Scotia to New Brunswick and sits on a hill overlooking the handsome rolling Cumberland plains. It has some very nice homes and some modest homes, but inside they are all well-kept. A film company recently wanted to make a movie about Springhill but townfolk ran them out of town when it realized the camera crews just wanted to shoot the poorer sections. Springhill's Main street has everything every Main street has a good, new restaurant, The Outside Inn, banks dry goods and shoe stores, J.

A. Gillis' hardware store where packages are handwrapped instead of put in bags, one movie house, the Capitol; a red brick Victorian Town Hall; a government Manpower Commission where Caleb Rushton, one of the trapped miners tries to find jobs for the unemployed, and a state liquor store, its bottles behind the counter beyond reach of customers, where Joe Hollo way, who was in both the 1956 and 1958 mine accidents, works. Joe Holloway has coal dust scars from one accident and says he recently developed a lung ailment as a result of being in the mines. He is a taciturn man. 1 1 a y's brother-in-law, Hughie Guthro, who had been trapped in No.

4 mine in 1956 and who was rescued again in the 1958 bump, got a job at another mine in the area because he couldn't find other work, has since quit and now works for Surrette Battery. Maurice Ruddick, father of 13, was sleeping during the day because he works nights at Buckingham Mills, but his wife Norma said, "He'll never go back into the mines as long as I'm around." Ruddick, known for his baritone voice, kept up the other trapped miners' spirits by getting them to sing. Joe McDonald, who had his leg smashed in the bump and was visited by Prince Philip in the hospital, is on 100 percent disability. At his Manpower office, Caleb Rushton said he had thought of leav ing Springhill for a year after the bump, said nothing would ever get him back into a mine. "I was knocked out when the bump happened," he recalled.

"I never felt it or heard it. Some stone had fallen from the roof across my leg and cut my head open. The first thing I thought of when I came to was the argument I had had with my wife when she was driving me to work." The ones who survived the '58 bump were luckier than those who survived the '56 explosion, Rushton said, "because they didn't have the gas fumes to contend with, which left some with permanent brain damage." The Springhill Miners' Museum has been opened two years. Last year some 35,000 tourists went 900 feet down into the Syndicate Mine, originally operated from 1885 to 1887. The mine reopened and was worked from 1960 to 1970.

All the tour guides are former miners Ron Rushton, who was once badly injured in a mine accident, but who was on the day shift and so missed the 1958 bump on the night shift; Bill James, Darrell Hurley, Dick Noiles and Jimmy Nodwell, who worked in the mine office. James remembers the rescue in 1958, the gas masks and oxygen supplies, picking away at the coal to get to the men, four hours on, four hours to sleep which another draegerman crew took over. "I worked in the mines 33 years," Bill James said, "and if they reopened them, I'd go back in a minute. There's nothing like working underground. I'll go down as long as they dig me a hole deep enough." And, that just about sums up the spirit of Springhill.

Clearing Saturday. High Kennedy KENNEDY Continued from Page 1 Kennedy said he disagreed with Wallace "on some issues," but felt that, as a senator, he ought to be able to travel about the country talking about his beliefs and those matters in which he is interested. "There are too many people and voices in this country that are trying to divide the nation, trying to separate this country," he said. "I think it's important to try and sort of bring this country together." At the recent National Governors Conference in Lake Tahoe, Wallace, confined to a wheelchair by the assassination attempt against him during the 1972 campaign, said he was pleased Kennedy Court probes BAILEY Continued from Page 1 The rebuke was added to the Pennsylvania court's reversal of Davis's conviction. The censure did not prohibit the lawyers from practicing in Pennsylvania.

Bailey has been represented by Attorney James D. St. Clair in the proceedings held by Judge Spalding. It is expected that Spalding will make a report to the high court and recommendations. This is the second time Bailey's conduct has been brought to the attention of the Massachusetts high court.

In October 1970, the court censured Bailey for "professionally improper" conduct in three criminal cases. The censure order followed a report by the Boston Bar Association. The widely known criminal lawyer was rebuked for discussing his cases the Plymouth mail robbery, the murder trial of Dr. Carl Coppolino and a New Jersey murder outside the courtroom. in WEDN ESDAY, JULY 973 IN IAT I RKAL MAN AC latttra Dtylliht Tttnc 1 1 Moonrc 10.17 r-'inir; Mnonnot I.rnmh of Dy t.Vl Day of Vmr fin on He.uiluliti it 30 pm P.M.

vice presidential candidate on a ticket unless the candidate was "in conformity with my positions. platform." The trip to Decatur Is not Kennedy's first to Alabama in recent times. He spoke to student groups from Auburn and Tuske-gee universities in Auburn in September, 1972, and then went to visit Wallace at Montgomery. The festival at Decatur, which started in 1967, has become a statewide event, and 20,000 persons h'ave attended in the past. The town is sustained by the Tennessee Valley Authority complex, and is within 20 miles of the Huntsville space center.

Thus, it was not what one Kennedy aide descried as a "hard-rock" citadel of Southern (and Wallace) conservatism. F. Lee Bail c7 the so-called DeFranco-Kavanaugh murder cases. Bailey also faces criminal charges in the Glenn W. Turner case at Orlando, Fla.

He was recently named in a 28-count mail fraud indictment returned in U.S. District Court at Orlando. Bailey was legal counsel for Turner, a controversial Florida businessman. The Boston lawyer also is involved in a complicated case in which a group of about 50 clients claim ownership of an alleged $250 million in gold stashed in a cave on the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico. very near to Bermuda this evening." The center located Alice's center about 175 miles south of the island.

The storm was moving northward at an accelerated speed of 12 miles per hour, putting gale force winds within reach of the island by mid-afternoon. OBITUARIES would come to Alabama on the Fourth. To a question about whether, it might indicate the Massachusetts Democrat was doing some pioneer political work looking to 1976, Wallace drew a laugh by saying, "I don't think he's coming there for nothin'." But, in a quick and more sober afterthought, the governor added that he felt Kennedy would come whether he intended to be a presidential pandidate in 1976 or not. He said the senator, who lost two brothers to assassins' bullets, was particularly sensitive to his, Wallace's, plight. Pressed to see if something unsuspected was developing between the two political figures, Wallace said he wouldn't run as a conduct of Associate Justice Paul-G.

Kirk said Bailey "contrived" to obtain publicity so he could win favorable verdicts for his clients. The censure did not prohibit Bailey from practicing in Massachusetts. Bailey was suspended from practicing law in New Jersey for a year in an order returned by the New Jersey Supreme Court on Feb. 8, 1971. The disciplinary action followed misconduct charges.

The lawyer was accused of attempting to publicize in the press charges against the prosecution in Mrs. Powers dies; wife of ex-Senator Mrs. John E.

Auto water pollution WASHINGTON A study carried out for the Environmental Protection Agency concludes that cars are primary polluters of water. Biospherics, of Rockviile, said auto pollutants befoul rivers and streams almost as much as municipal sewage. Horsemen bearers at Laydcn rites CHICAGO Notre Dame football luminaries from the Knute Rockne era to current coach Ara Parseghian paid last respects Tuesday to Elmer Layden of the Four Horsemen backfield of the "Fighting Irish." Five former teammates, including the two surviving Four Horsemen halfbacks Sleepy Jim Crowley' and Don Miller, were among 500 mourners attending the funeral Mass for Layden, 70, who died Saturday night. Nine priests were at the altar of the concelebrated aMss at Holy Name Cathedral, including Revs. Edmund Joyce, Notre Dame vice president, and John Cavanaugh, who delivered the eulogy.

Fr. Cavanaugh was Notre Dame president during much of Layden's career as Irish head coach from 1934-1940. He described Layden as achieving greatness as a 165-pound fullback who "thrust himself like a su-man spear through walls of bristling resistance." Besides Miller and Crowley, pallbearers included three members of the Seven Mules which fronted the Four Horsemen. They were Capt. Adam Walsh, Rip Miller and Chuck Collins.
