HOME ON WHEELS—The increasing usefulness of the automobile as
a key part of American life is demonstrated graphically in this on-lhe-road
photograph showing the youngster reclining on one o( the con-vertible
twin beds of a 1949 Nash "Airflytc." Since the beds can be
made np separately, the father still can drive the car while mother sits
comfortably next to her son. To make up the bed, latches at the Ijgsc o£
the front seat back are released, then the bock of the sent is lowered to a
stop which has been swung out from under the rear seat cushion. All the
trunk space remains available for luggage and special screens permit full
ventilation. The twin beds are a full five feet wide.

THRILLS FREEP S AT GROVE
School Board Asks
Bids on Preliminary
Work for New Field
To Start Development
Of 9V2 Acre Tract Given
• *- By L. I. Park Board
Bids for the preliminary work in
the development of the Board of
Education's 91/^-acre field on Sun-rise
highway just west of the
Meadowbrook Causeway will be
opened at a meeting next Wednes-day
night. Under -the terms of the
grant by which the property was
turned over to the board. by the
Long Island State Park-Commission
the grounds must be developed
within a two-year period.
At the annual school meeting last
May $25,000 was. taken from surplus
to finance as much work as possible
this year. Bids are to be receiver1,
-for a contract to clear the grounds,
grade the property, install drainage,
spread top soil and seed the land.
There are three alternative pro-posals.
Officials--had hoped to have
money enough to also surround the
iield with a'lence, but the amount
of top soil required has exceeded
original estimates and probably the
$25,000 allowance will not go as far
as expected, they say.
The need for an athletic field for
school sports has grown as the num-ber
of candidates for the various
teams has increased. Take football,
there is not only a varsity squad,
but a junior varsity, a freshman
team, as well as seventh and eighth
year elevens. Then too there are
large baseball and track squads with
lacrosse having been added to the
list of sports being sponsored by the
school.
Athletic officials are honeful the
field will be ready to permit* baseball
• practice next spring. When com-pleted
the .field will have a football
gridiron, a baseball diamond, a
lacrosse field^a quarter mile track
and a 220-yard straight-away track.
A 'small grand stand also is planned.
Completion of the field will per-mit
the girls to have exclusive use
of the Raynor st. field as was origin-ally
planned. Plans for the' field
were drawn by Harry A. Strecker,
the engineer who drafted those for
the Mid-Town Plan some six years
ago and for the revised plans for
eliminating the Freeport Grade
grossing elimination.

"Industry—the new lifeline of Long Island."

Mr. Hyman Wurtzel is president of one of Freeport's lending indus-tries.
The Grove .Dress Manufacturing Co., located on the southeast corner
of Merrick rd. and Grove st. In remodeling the building for this enter-prising
concern, Mr. Wurtzel and his partner, Mr. Louis Mantin. beautified
an important corner in Freeport.
with a three-story edifice that
looks more like a college build-ing
than a factory. This estab-lishment
employs approximtae.ly
125 persons who live in this, and
surrounding villages.

owner of South Main st. luncheon- 'contribute the money to Patrolman
A friendly personality, good
business intellect, complete un-derstanding
of employer - em-ployee
relations, and full knowl-edge
of apparel manufacturing,
have been the instrumental facA
tors in helping him attain his
success in- this field of endeavor.
The Grove Dress Manufacturing
Co. has been operating in Free-port
for eight years. During this
time, the management-labor re-lations
have been of the highest
calibre.
* * * *
The plant is well ventilated,
fluorcscently lighted, clean and
comfortable. They have oper-
• ated without a strike and without
any major accidents. Their
safety record has won them a
coveted New York State Insur-ance
Fund citation. All this has
been possible because the owners work with the employees, not over
them. This friendly, cooperative spirit is evidenced by the fact that the
average length of employee-service is five to six years.
* * i> *
Mr. Hyman Wurtzel has been in this business over 25 years. He
started this plant In Frceport about eight years ago, formerly being located
in Roosevelt. Being a firm believer that Freeport, is a better place to
Jive, and a better place to work in, he purchased his home and moved
his family to 163 VV. Seaman ave. *~
' » * * + '
He is married to the former Lillian Herbach of Brooklyn, who is
prominently active in the various activities of Temple B'nai Israel. They
have four chUdrjm1._Mrsi_JCenneth Suna, of Freeport, Elaine, who was
engaged last Sunday to Martin Surnamer, Dolores, a student at Freeport
Junior High School, and Leo, who has his own factory in Copaigue. They
also have two grandchildren. Besides other organizations, Hyman Wurtzel
is also a mem-ber of the Preeport Lodge of* Elks. Lions Club, Masons, and
trie Temple B'nai Israel.
* » -f * i
He is sincerely Interested in all charitable and civic projects, and
his family attitude is very impressive. This type of progressive industri-alist
is more than welcomed, especially now that all Long Island realizes
more and more the definite need for industry in its new pattern of life.
Nassau County has grown more than any other section in the country, ,
and local industry is the answer to the problem of increased employment ;
for its approximately million inhabitants. The demand to not only live
here, but also work here has become greater than ever before.
•f *• * .*
This is Hyman Wurtzel of the Grove Dress Manufacturing Co..
another true symbol of "Industry—The new lifeline of Long Island."

Pays Personal Visit
At Premier of 'Girl
From Jones Beach'
Ann Sonneborn Crowned
*Miss Freeport1 Acts
As 'Lady-in-Waiting*
Years ago when Freeport had its
famous theatrical colony, the arriv-al
of one more star in town' was
hardly noticed. But those days are
gone. The famous LIGHTS elub
has ceased tu exist and its club-house
at the waterfront, scene of
many interesting affairs, such as an
annual Christmas Party in July,
when all the stars could yet to-gether
to exchange gifts, has been
razed.
So the world premier of Warner
Bros.' new film, "The • Girl from
Jones Beach," with the personal
ippenrancc In town of Miss Virginia
Mayo, star of the picture, at the
Grove Theatre last night, created a
.hrill in Freeport just as it. would
lave in any other community.
The premier brought to a con-clusion
a series of events that v/tvs
started locally Monday night when
Miss Ann Sonneborn, was crowned
as Miss Frceport by acting Mayor
Leonard D. B. Smith at a brief cere-mony
on the .stage of I he Grove
Theatre. Miss Freeport consltutfed
one of ten "lp dies-in-waiting"
chosen from as n.any south shore
communities Lo act a.s a guard of
honor for Miss Mayo at the Grove
Theatre and the Fantasy in Rock-ville
Centre, which shared with the
initial showing of "The .Girl from
[Jones Beach."
Luncheon at Jones~Bearli
Then on Tuesday a luncheon was
given in the Jones Beach Marine
Restaurant for the 50 girls from the
various communities who had com-peted
for the honor of being chosen
for Miss Mayo's retinue and the
committees of the South Shore Busi-ness
Council who had been planning
for weeks to make the premier a
success.
Miss Mayo appeared in person al
the luncheon, and smilingly endured
the ordeal of posing for innumerable
photographs and autographing an
equally innumerable number of
cards and what-nots for those at
the luncheon. Everybody of import-mice
was introduced.
Then all the girls and Committee-men

in the cnvalcade, which after mak-ing
its way east to Seaford. then
proceeded westward with Miss Mayo
heading the procession, to Valley

girls from the,various villages. Bui.,

Evidently memories of the ice
cream filching as a youth have
preyed on the conscience of the ex-soda

The epistle read:
"Gentlemen:
