A Isrge crowd attended » the epening--of the Knights of Columbus carnival at Main and Delrhont streets last night and, apparently, all had a good tirhe. The bingo tent drew a large number of devotees of that game and the refreshment stand did a rushing business all during the evening. The other booths and rides at the carnival were well patronlied.
Mra. Victor D’Anieilo waa the lucky holder of the ticket for the doojr prize, a complete set o f dishes. Another set o f dishes will be given as a door prize tonight and every night of the camlvdl which lasts through Labor day. Admission to the grounds is free.

The idea was that Montgomery would be overall’'- ground forces commander In the initial phases, while the British forces cemprised the bulk of the troops, but that as soon as the American strength had been built up and the breakthrough achieved, a new Army group would be formed to simplify the command structure.
As soon as Elsenhower took _______personal commend, apd the speed i , . |and scope of the ojieratibns ex- U h H I C I lU l lC J jU . pended enormously with the. nreaktbrough below SL Lo, the need for a deputy commander of ground forces diaeppesred, it wee said, and. Montgomery’s own re- sponsibiUtles as commending general of the 21st Army group In- creasdd enormously!

C. Elmore Watkins, president of the hoapltal, announced the appointment, by the board of a community relations committee which will conduct the poU. In addition to Mr. Watkins, who is serving aa chairman of . the committee, Its membeta Include Thomaa Bentley, Howard Boyd. M.D., Charlet 8 . Burr, David, M- Caldwell, M.D,, Mary O.

Mr. Watkins reOalled Uiat more than four years ago the board made a survey^ of public oplnim to ascertain what' the realdenta believed should be done to meet an overcrowded condition' then prevailing. ’The test In 1940 ahowed that a large majority believed the hospital waa too small and that fimda should be sought from the public for Its enlargement.
For a Icmg period since the addition waa built, the boepltal he« again been aerloualy taxed for epace, Mr. Watklna eal4, He added that many have suggested that It should be expanded In order to meet Increasing demands of the people of Mancheste. and adjacent communities, who look to It for- accommo^tiona when their doctors find they require hospital care.
“The poll of public opinion which we conducted In 1.940,’’ ha continued, “proved to be a moat desirable procedure and helped lit the solution of what then waa 6 moat acute community problem. We now believe that thto ipethod of finding out what th* public thinks and would roCommend should be employed to guide us~in determining thĝ bei^' course , for future action.”
The community relationa committee met laa;/night a f the hospital and made preliminary plana for the aurvey. It waa report^ that the test will be made by means of a queaUonnalre which will be maUed In about two weeks to a representative cross-section of the population In tha .district served by the hospital.

The Machinists met and defeated the .Suicides twice In the first round altliough they played a tie game, bqt in the playoff the loop Champa won out after- a hard SulcWes will be out to avenge n ic previous setbacks and the club has high hopes of copping the second round of play. The team lacked the polish- to cop the initial round but now tiuct the” club has strengthed its roster considerably, the team will be -hard to beat In going down the stretch.
Cheneys will pin their hopes on the right arm o f Fireball Pop Gleason who has yet to suffer a defeat In league play. The Suicides have lost the services of the man who put them up at the top where they ar* today when Hook Brennan was Injured. He will, be. lost to the team for the balance of the sesaon. The' team has replaced Brriinan and hope .that they can nring a surprtoe and upeat the Ctaeney ten.
The game will start at 6:15.
