Pfc. Serai™ Returned POW r
Spends Night in Albany and Will Be Back Home Tonight!
Pfc. Chester Serafin, who has had quite an eventful time since being freed as a prisoner of war by the Reds in Korea and also following his arrival in San Francisco last Saturday night, will come to the end of his journey tonight when he finally reaches Amsterdam for a rousing home-coming welcome and parade after spending last night in an Albany hotel resting up.
Arrived at New York parents, at Hotel Ten Eyek and Pfe. Serafin reached New York * "" ' "" ~u~"' ~ o r t ~'",'v'>v
On Leave
City yesterday morning to complete the trip from the Pacific Coast and his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Albert Serafin. planned a motor trip to the metropolis for a reunion but later In the day these plans were changed and instead they went to Albany where they were reunited with their son at 4 o"clock in the afternoon, following his arrival by train from New York.
The welcome' home committee made arrangements for the parents and son to spend the night at the Ten Eyck Hotel in Albany and every effort was made to keep this plan a secret in order that the soldier might rest up for the demonstration planned in his honor here tonight.
However, there was a leak and Pfc. Serafin became the object of visits from the press but he kept restrained and t.alked very little about his experiences in prison camps in Korea for more than two years.
Tonight's Plans Complete The homecoming parade will
move from the Matthew J. Coes-sens Memorial Park at 7:30 o'clock tonight, as planned. This afternoon at 3 o'clock a motor-1, cade left for Albany made up of some 20 members of Pfc. Serafin's family and relatives. They will pick him up, together with his
leave there about 5:3d ^ o'clock coming directly to Coessens Park where the parade will be formed.
The route of march will be west on East Main St.. to Church St., and north to City Hall where Pfc. Serafin will be officially welcomed home by Mayor Burtiss E. Deal and presented with a key to the city.

Tuesday, Sept. 8. between the hours of noon and 6 p.m. Luncheon will be served on the premises to volunteer workers at 11:15 a.m. Approximately 50 donors have made thus far to give blood, which means that more than 100 are still needed to meet the quota assigned.
Donors who have already signed up are employes of the Mohawk Carpet Mills who pledged early in August. • • i
Because of the holiday season, many people are on vacations and it is understandable why the schedule is smalKat this time. I t is hoped that persons who have not made appointments will visit the Century* Club next Tuesday

Wide Variety Of Vegetables, Fruits at Hand The weekend's market offers
the widest list of good fruit and vegetable values available so far this year. Most of them should retail at prices favorable to the most limited budget. An increase in supplies and a lessening of demand in the area wholesale trading center has been responsible for the continued downward trend in cost for many summer favorites. Nearly all vegetables are reasonable enough to preserve now.
The market limelight, however, is again focused on tomatoes, sweet corn and eggplant which are down to rock bottom levels. These are the most worthwhile buys at present, according to the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets. Snap beans, endive, escarole, celery, L. I. potatoes and squash are down further in cost this week and all of them are quite plentiful and very, sonable. Peppers, icebepg"Iettuce, cabbage, squash, beets and carrots are excellent buys too and are holding to last week's favorable price figures.
Top quality homegrown peaches and prunes are at peak production now and Cheap enough to can or freeze. Native cantaloupes are more abundant, lower in price and considered an outstanding purchase. Prices have begun to drift lower for nearby apples, making tm?m more economical.
Supply Summary Liberal—Tomatoes, sweet corn,
potatoes, yellow onions, prunes, peaches, squash, cucumber, eggplant, cabbage, peppers, cantaloupes, apples, endive, escarole, spinach, sweet potatoes.
Moderate—Beets, green onions, lettuce, parsley, snap beans, radishes, nectarines, pears, lemons, limes, oranges, plums, watermelons, carrots, celery, "broccoli, eggs, honeydews, grapes, grapefruit, caulflower.
Light—Peas, kale, huckleberries.

"Johnny Jacobs Day" Plans at Fort Johnson
Arrives Sept. 10 Mr. and Mrs. John A.Jacobs,
Fort Johnson, this morning received a telegram from the Department of Defense announcing that their son, Marine Pfc. John A. Jacobs Jr., repatriated prlsones of war in Korea, would arrive in San Francisco Sept. 10 and would be immediately processed for leave to return to his h6me.
FORT JOHNSON—"Turn on the lights for Johnny Jacobs" will be the jslogan here next Tuesday evening, Sept. 8, when every home in the village area will be visited for donations for a gift of appreciation to Marine Pfc. John J. Jacobs Jr., lately released as a prisoner of war by the Chinese j Reds in Korea. Pfc. Jacobs is expected #home soon and a rousing welcome is being arranged.
People residing outside the village area who would like to donate to the fine cause are asked to report to Mrs. John Hoggins, treasurer of the homecoming committee, at 9 Prospect St., this village.
The names of all contributors will be inscribed on a scroll to be presented to Pfc. Jacobs.
Plans for a public demonstration and parade are progressing and Fort .Johnson promises to outdo itself in the welcome it is proposed to give the youth here. I t is hoped to have Pfc. Chester Serafin, only Amsterdam repatriated prisoner of war, who will be feted by that city tonight, on hand to share in the demonstration here on a date to be fixed later.
Reconstruction work on a 10.66-mile section of Route 10, between Speculator and Lewey Lake, in Hamilton County, is expected to get under way soon, with completion of the job Scheduled by Sept. 30. 1954. r
Improvement of this south end of Route 10, together with other work already completed or under way on the north end, will provide a convenient north-south connecting road between Route 8 at Speculator and Route 28 at Indian Lake.
The one and only bid received on the project yesterday at Albany by B. D. Tallamy, New York State superintendent of public works, was from Torrington Construction Company, Inc., Torring
ton, Conn., which offered to do the work for $1,845.37550.
State engineers had estimated the job would cost $1,854,000.
Plans call for extensive relocation of the existing dirt road in order to modify present grades and eliminate many existing curves. The new highway, which is to be paved with 22-foot wide double surface—treated graded gravel, will have maximum grades of eight per cent and minimum sight distances of approximately 500 feet when completed.
Included in the project will be the construction of a new, single span 55-foot steel bridge over the Jessup River and the building of more than 80 new corrugated metal pipe culverts at various points along the route.
