. In almost unprecedented variety, this year's election has a little bit of everything for eyetybodyj There is,partisan politics and:there is non-partisan politics. There are candidates and there are issues—at all levels of government. Some candidates are opposed for the jobs they seek; others have no competition. Still others are running on write-ins, without the benefit of having their names on the ballot.

The main ballot, on a big 19x20-lnch sheet for the paper-ballot, precincts, will give voters a selection from presidential .candidates,for six different political parties on down through Congressional and state legislative offices, through state educational posts, through county offices and down to township offices.

Only the "Republicans have candidates for all those offices— or most of them. At the county level, all candidates for county offices—including ,the new 11-man board of supervisors—are Republicans, with the exception of Jack Andrews, who's running unopposed as a Democrat for the District 10 supervisor's seat. There is no candidate on the ballot for prosecuting attorney, but Patrick Kelly of St. Johns Is seeking a write-in election.

In addition to tending to national, state and county duties, voters in St. Johns will be electing two new city commissioners from among at least three announced write - in candidates-John W. Hannah-, Robert H. Wood and John Lynch,

DeWlTT HAS CONTESTS FOR ALL its city offices. Mayor EldenSmlth is seekingreelectlon with bppositionfrom Marshall C. Warren. DuWayne Zlegler and Paul Mulford are seeking a two-year seat on the city council. There are three four-year seats up for grabs, with Lawrence Keck^Paul Hartwlgsen, Andrew K, Traxler, Jack Scott, Roger Overway and'JohnHiattas candidates.

All of the townships have one or more of fleers to elect, some With opposition and some without.

On a separate non-partisan ballot, there is competition between Harold Reed, and Roland Duguay, both of St. Johns, for the judgeship In the Clinton County District Court which will take. effect Jan. 1. There's also competition for bench seats on the Michigan Supreme Court and the District; Michigan Court of Appeals,

For the voters,who can't get excited about the election of people, there is a multitude of state and local issues to deal with.

There are five Just for the state. Voters will have to decide "yes" or "no" on:"

Vl) Whether the state should have a. graduated income taxj • 2) whether the state should go on daylight savings time in the sumnter months; 3) whether the state shouldboridfor. $335 million to be used for matching funds, to combat pollution; 4) whether the state should-bohd for SlQO million for matching funds to improve recreation facilities; and 5) whether elected state officials should be allowed to run for state office while holding another office.

., CLINTON COUNTY ALSO HAS AN issue on the ballot. The board of supervisors is asking for a fixed millage of 1,8'miils, split definitely "among the schools, county and townships', Pres-ehtiy:

(the millage totals 15 mills/with the allocation board.arguing every year about which unit gets now much'millage. ' '•• •

_ \ Bath Township voters^have two propositions facing them— one for a 1-mill tax for five years' to finance fire equipment and a building.andsite/and the other for liquor"sale ,bythe glass,

Robinson pointed out that such action is In violation of federal statutes and uponbelng.advisedof the damaged boxes he immediately contacted postal Inspectors as well as the office of the CUnton County sheriff.

' Robinson did not indicate what area of the county the damages ocurred but explained that with the approach of Halloween sheriff's deputies are maintaining a more concentrated vigil out in the rural areas of the county.

'Lame duck9'''county'board still not limping (Continued from Page 1-A)

ridge tape sound system that would coordinate musical notes with flashing multi-colored lights around-' the base of the courthouse Christmas tree.

The board was told by Brandon; White, representing the.Chamber, that the recorder could also be used to provide - music for other county activities that the board might want to use it for. *

In two separate instances,.the' board f igured "we done him wrong* and made some salary adjustments. Supervisor Derrill Shinabery of Greenbush Township arose to suggest that the board did Probate Judge Timothy Green an Injustice by not allowing him a proposed salary increase a> week earlier. He noted Judge Green was the' only elected official not granted a raise and he did not think It fair In light of the work the Judge did not only at the courthouse but but of his own office.

THE, BOARD THEN voted un

animously to pay the. Judge $12,-500 a year — the figure recommended last weefif.by the salary and clerk;liire, committee and a $500' increase over 1968. The Judge receives $5,000 of this figure from the state, so the county's share is only $7,500 for 1969,

Shinabery also made a motion that'courityfEngineerGerald Wilcox be granted another $500 above the $13,500 approved last week because, a promised increase following his probation period • had" not been paid'before. El don. Smith, chairman of the salary and clerk hire commi t t ee , brought the subject up. Shinabery

. backed the proposal, pointing out , that "We couldn't replace hlmtor the same^ figure. He . is doing a good Job and is returning fees to the county, for work he's doing. We have not lived up to our-agreement through an oversight or misinterpretation."

The' board approved the additional $500 .without opposition.

Also approved bythehoardwas an increase %in compensation for

the coordinator of the soldiers and sailors relief fund from $20 tot$30 per month. The coordinator Is'Rex Sirrlne of St. Johns. They also approved anincreaseof$250 for salaries of the Clinton County road commissioners. The commissioners' salaries in 1969 will be" $1,750. While the county board sets the salaries, the county general, fund does not pay the money; it comes from road commission funds. , Monday the board referred to

the prosecuting attorney and the road commission . a letter demanding payment of a claim totaling $13,789.20 for the "wrongful" • cutting down of six trees ',on the property of Richard and Lena Burns at 3430 Clark Road.

THE BURNS, THROUGH an attorney, claimed the trees were cut down May 3 by the road c o m m i s s i o n without proper notice or payment. Included were a 10-foot-ln-circumference c'ot-tonwood, a 7-foot cottonwood, 20-inch, 18-inch and 17-inch

maple trees and an 8-inch cherry tree.

The Burns valued the trees at $4,592.40, including $1,825 for the big cottonwood, and noted that the law permits tripling of damages in cases like this'. The Burns' attorney sent a similar request to the road commission, not sure Just which body should pay the damages . The supervisors felt the Jurisdiction was the road commission's.

Zoning Administrator William Coffey told the board at Its Oct. 14 meeting that he's going to start cracking down on violations 6f conditions under which special use permits are granted. The first of these,- he said, was a revoking of the special use permit of Mr and Mrs William Wallace to operate a junk salvage yard south of Maple Rapids.

Coffey charged that Wallace did not comply with.conditions as to fence and yard around the salvage yard. Without the fence, he said the location on top of a hill made it an eyesore to the surrounding neighborhood. (The Wallaces had the property re-zoned inl965sothataspecialuse permit could be obtained.)

Coffey said he would allow Wallace a reasonable amount of time to get the junk cleaned up.

The board also gave Coffey the go-ahead on his proposal to write some a u t h o r i t y into the new zoning ordinance for the county to be able to order demolition of buildings that have been condemned and tagged by the zoning administrator."Ninety per cent are beyond repair," Coffey said, "and we have to do something to get rid of them."

DeWitt finds 'Quiz Bowl' experience very exci t ing

Spirit Week was wild at Bath

By PATTI ZUKER St. Johns High School

The final homecoming for Rodney B.j which was held last Friday, Oct. 18, was a roaring success as the varsity Redwings stomped the Alma Panthers by a score of 46-7. During the half time ceremonies a parade of the class floats and representatives was held for the capacity crowd. Because the freshmen do not construct a float, their representative, Miss Cathy Stoddard, rode in a convertible. The sophomore representative, Miss.Mary Pat Sirrine, rode on a float made up of large red spirit jug centered around "The Spirit of '71.* The junior representative, Miss Diane Fedewa, reigned over the junior float, a large phonograph, with "Cherish" as the theme.

The float constructed by the senior class of '69 had Rodney B. as its background, with the queen and four representatives sitting In front.

The representatives, Lexa Swatman, Debby Westland, Judy Whitlock and Patti O'Leary, were all seated In white wrought iron chairs. Above Queen Sharl Lis-zewski's head was a large clock

commemorating the year Rodney B. was founded, the year of its. first official homecoming and the year the class of »69 completed their freshman y e a r and will complete their senior year. The girls' .names were on red banners on the side of thefloat.

Carrying the crown with which Shari was crowned was Johnny Warren, 4-year-old son of Mr and Mrs-Win Warren . Four-year-old Cbnnie Koeni'gsknecht, daughter of Mr and Mrs Nick Koenigsknecht, carried the long-stemmed red roses which were presented to Shari by Mrs Leon Kellogg.

A SYSTEM OF HAVING gold cords for graduating seniors who have maintained a B average all through their high school years has met with the approval of the senior class. A survey was taken recently to gather the reactions to the ideajrt such a program. Out of 197 seniors polled, 129 were In favor of an honor cord system, 64 were opposed, and four wanted more information.

The cords would serve as a reward for individual scholastic achievement. This would eliminate the lopsidedness of honoring

\ only two people from a class of over 200—the valedictorian and salutatprian. The cords would enable a much larger percentage of the class to be recognized. The issue will: be taken up with underclassmen and the student council In the near future. .

The Junior Classical League held their annual slave auction and initiation during the p a s t week. Many of the students were subjected to -a gooey mess of peanut butter and flour, as they wandered through the halls of RBW blindfolded. The money received for first year Latin students (the slaves) will be used for the JCL banquet to be held in the spring.

The GAA is planning ahayride for Oct. 26. Many of the 135 members will be attending with their dates._Afterwards theywill be served cider and doughnuts. The club is now participating in a series of volleyball games in which all of the girls are involved. The winning team of the tournament will play a faculty team in the near future. The club also plans to compete with area schools in a basketball tournament. ~

The tension was intense at Bath High Friday night, Oct. 11, as the four queen candidates awaited the announcement of which one would be the 1968 Homecoming Queen. The candidates were: Miss Roberta Six, Miss JoAnn Schrôeder, Miss Carol Dunavant, and Miss Sally Osenga.

The festivities took place during half-time of the game. The Bath High School Band, under the direction of Mr Ken Kooimarij played several pop tunes and afterwards the class representatives, class floats, and queen candidates were driven around the football field.

The winning class float was made by^the sophomores, advised by Mr Harland Cook. The senior float took, second place, the junior float took third place, and the freshman float came in fourth.

Finally the long awaited announcement was ha a d e . Miss. Carol Dunavant, daughter of Mr and Mrs F.R. Dunavant of 5565 Clark Road, was named as the queen. She was crowned by last year's Homecoming Queen, Miss Rose Ann Day. The members of the queen's court were: Miss Roberta Six, Miss Sally Osenga, and Miss JoAnn Schroeder.

At the Homecoming Dance held Saturday n ight , Oct. 12, the Homecoming Kingwaspresented. He was Tom Feguer, son of Mr and Mrs Herbert Feguer of 5593 Sleight Road.

King Tom and Queen Carol reigned over the dance and during the intermission everyone was given the opportunity to take pictures of the royalty. -

The dance featured the Party-store Band.

By DAVE HORVATH DeWitt High

DeWITT-DeWitt HighSchool's-"Quiz Bowl" team put forth a victorious effort, defeatingCom-stock Park ' s team Oct. 10, 210-180. It was the first time that DeWitt had been invited to participate in the WZZM, Channel 13 (Grand Rapids) production,, "The High School Quiz Bowl."

Chosen last spring in a preliminary t e s t questioning, 15 students competed for a spot on the four-man regular team, or for a position as an alternate. Questions were asked in the five different fields of science, math, English, history, and a general category, and each student had to respond with a simultaneous,, oral answer. At the end of the testing, the four students with the highestscores were chosen as regulars.' Representing DeWitt were Andy Paquet, Linda Chapel and Dave Horvath, seniors, and Shelley Keck, a junior.

DeWltt's and Comstock Park's teams and teacher advisors met in the WZZM studios centered in a Downtown Grand Rapids Hotel. There, they met the host for the show, Don Michaels, who gave them some last minute instructions. Once they were on the air , the questions began, and their nervousness faded, and at the halfway point, the game was tied, 110-110.

The Quiz Bowl is similar, to the NBC show, College Bowl, only the questions are oh a high school level. A sample question would be, *The famous riddle of the Sphinz was 'What walks on, four legs in the morning, on two at noon, and on three in the evening?* What was the correct answer and who gave it? The answer is MAN and it was given by OEDIPUS." Such were some of the questions asked.in the first half.

The second half proved to be an exciting one also, with the lead seesawing back and forth. But when the whistle sounded ending the game, DeWitt had beaten two^

time winner Comstock Park, 210-^80. ,

For winning their first game, DeWitt's team was awarded a 20 - volume encyclopedia set, while a team who wins the second game r e c e i v e s a five-volume science set. A school that wins a third time in a row is declared undefeated champion, and is given a Quiz Bowl trophy to signify their academic honors.

On Oct. 17, DeWitt returned to Grand Rapids to face a Class B school, Fremont. As the game started, Fremont jumped into the lead and at halftime. they were swamping DeWitt, 170-70. But the second half showed an almost unbelievable comeback, for DeWitt outscored F r e m o n t , 90 points . to 30, a 3 to 1 scoring. And yet the last minute thrust was not quite enough, for when the whistle sounded, the, score stood 200-160, Fremont winning.

Although DeWitt's team lost, their second game, with Wally Cutler, senior, substitution for Linda Chapel, all' five participants -gained .the* expedience of; J being on television an^%6eingKbw;* a show is - b r o a d c i s t These students brought academic honors to their school ,and themselves, and the twp weeks of their "stardom" will be something that they will remember always.

The Vikings snapped P-W's undefeated string of games with a 14-13 win o v e r the Pirates , throwing the league race into a deadlock between the two teams. Both are now 4-1 for the league season and 5-1 overall.

It was a broken play for Pot-tervllle on the 'final extra point try that spelled defeat for Coach BUI Mark's Pirates. Potterville had scored on a 13-yard pass from Dick Diana to Bruce Mc-Murray to take a 13-6 lead over the St. Joseph Ponies 13-6 Oct.

FOWLER - It seemed like ages since Fowler had scored a touchdown, but Friday night they popped the cork and came up with five of them, just enough to edge out a winless but stubborn Bath Bees 30-26.

It was the first time since they beat Fulton 12-7 in the season's opener that Coach Blaine Doug-la s ' boys had been across an opponents' goal line. They had been shut out four straight times since then.

Gary F e l d p a u s c h , the only senior s t a r t e r on the Eagles squad, got t h r e e touchdowns against Bath on runs of 45, six and six yards. Brother Steve got one, but it was the big and final one

when he ran 40 yards for a touchdown with five minutes left in the game.'

That wiped, out a 26-24 lead that Bath had been hanging onto. The Bees, yet without awininsix games, had gotten two touchdowns from Dave Ankney on 40-and 20-yard passes from quarterback Dave B r i g g s , one from Don Nichols on a 60-yard sweep, and the other one on a broken play in which Mark Dunkel picked up a fumble and tossed to TomCooley in the end zone.

Fowler's fourth of their five touchdowns c a m e when Clare Thelen intercepted a Bath pass and returned it 35 yards for the

Ovid-Elsie upsets Chesaning 13-6 By FRAN FOWLER

Ovid-Elsie High

OVID-ELSIE (c)-Itwas No. 98 for Coach Mark O'Donnell as the Ovid-Elsie Marauders beat the Chesaning Indians 13-6 last Friday.

:f The Indians, who had gone into.. this game in first place,-now find > themselves in second as Corunna beat St. Louis to gain the first spot. Ovid-Elsie is now in third place.

"The kids really wanted this one bad for coach (O'Donnell),* said assistant Joe Thering following the game.

The Marauders alreadyhadsix points in the second quarter and had seven more in the third before Chesaning was able to get six in the third quarter. The Marauders were inside the 10 yard line five other times but failed to go over.

•• • The Marauders went 62 yards on the ground for their first score but only a few yards each time they moved. Ron Lover went off left tackle from one yard for the score.

After a big gain by Dave Long, the Marauders again sent Lover over the'goal in the third quarter on the same play. Long ran in the extra point on a pass-option sweep.

The Indians got their score on a 52-yard drive with Denny Tithof going the ,Iast four, yards on a sweep*

„ LOVER OUTGAINED all the Indians as he got 101 yards on 31 carries. 'Melvin had 92 and Long 69. The defensive standouts were Ben Sloat, Ph'tt Sey-bert, Frank Wenkler, Charlie Hunze,. Greg Finch and, Dennis Bolton. •

The Marauders had .15 first downs to six for Chesaning. The

Marauders had a total of 353 yards to the Indians 100.

O-E had 273 yards rushing and 80 passing while Chesaning had 75 yards rushing and 25 in the air.

Next week the Marauders travel to St. Louis.

: Why the St. Johns Redwings shouldn't be ranked high, among state Class B football teams is a mystery to St. Johns fans after their favorite team rolled to an almost errorless.46-7 win over second-place Almalast Friday evening. It clinched at least a tie for the league championship. ' . " -

While amassing their highest single-game point total of the year with a balanced passing and running a t tack ; The Redwings were holding' Alma to only plus four yards rushing and. two first downs.

Sparked again by workhorse Mike Green, the Wings piled up 220 yards rushing and added 165 via the air and made 12 first downs. Only one fumble on the-second play from s c r i m m a g e spoiled an almost flawless per- > formance.

The victory put St. Johns over the hump In the West Central Conference championship race. They're now 5-0 in the league, and need only a victory over Charlotte or Lakewood to take the title outright: Charlotte is 0-5 and Lakewood is 1-4. Both, however, have been known to give high-flying Tedwing teams of the past some embarrassing moments.

Alma's loss to St. Johns Friday night was only their second in league play. They'had been holding onto a second-place tie with Hastings with a 3-1 mark. But St- Johns didn't take too long to show the visiting Panthers why they (St. Johns) were in first place.

THE REDWINGS scored almost at will, both through the air and on the ground. Fullback Mike Green got three touchdowns, quarterback Tim Durner passed to end Dave Gaffney for a pair, Durner scored one himself, and halfback Chuck Green scored one. It was 14-0 at the end of the first quarter and 33-0 at half-time.

Shining just as bright as the offense was the St. Johns defense. The Redwings held Alma to only 4 yards net rushlng(for t|ie night, lncludingvaH.minui*lQtjarjis|inthe^

all night, and that went for '24 yards and their only touchdown with just under two minutes left in the game.

The Redwings took just over four minutes to establish their' authority. They lost the ball on a fumble on the second play from scrimmage (about t h e i r only error of the night) but held-Alma on downs at the 37 yard line. Then after getting a first down at the 47 yard line, fullback Mike Green bounced throughabighold, shook off a couple of linebackers and broke clear for 53 yards and the first touchdown. Jeff Sllm's extra point kick-was good.

Alma gained a yardage advantage on an exchange of punts with St. Johns to move in to the St. Johns 30,. but again the defense put a stop to the mild threat, and that set the stage for TD No. 2 in the first quarter. On the first play from scrimmage, quarterback Durner guided a pass to Gaffney cutting across to the right side of the field, and Gaffney outran two persistent defenders to complete a 70-yard touchdown play.

Silm's kick made it 14-0.

Here comes Chuck Green (20) circling left end for a big yardage gain against Alma Friday night, and Terry Maier (23) rushes toward him to offer blocking protection against Panthers Paul Painter and another unidentifed would-be tackier. No. 72 for St. Johns is Doug.Thurston. Alma players trailing in the background are Steve Richards (76) and Bernie Painter. St. Johns won 46-7.

St. Johns' last touchdown drive started in the third quarter and wound up in the fourth.

Alma averted being shut out completely by scoring with 1:53 left in the game. The Panthers had taken a St. Johns punt to the Redwing 40, from which they moved to the 24 and then Studer passed to Bernie Painter for the touchdown. Bill Young kicked the extra point.

BROWN IN CLINTON COUNTY NOV. 1

Congressman Garry Brown, Republican candidate for reelection to the ThliM District seat in the U.S. Congress, will swing; through Clinton County on a caravan campaign Nov. 1, He's ached- -uled to bo at Westphalia at 1 p.m., Fowler at 1:45, Maple Rapids at 2:30, Eureka at 3, Elsie at 3:30, Ovid at 4 and St. John? at 4:30 ' p.m.

Here are some miscellaneous items of business transacted by the Clinton Qounty Board of Supervisors during their meetings of Oct. 14 and Oct, 21:

Referred to c o m m i t t e e for recommendation was a request for an electronic telephone answering service for the county's two dog wardens. Also being considered is short wave radio for their cars as a possible route to savings in time and mileage.

The board's' audit committee

The b o a r d formally s t r u c k from the minutes of their September meeting a motion calling for the firing of Robert Yager, sanitarian with the Mid-Michigan Health Department". Supervisors acknowledged they had no authority over the hiring and firing of the department's personnel, although they maintained displeasure with Yager's work.

Prosecutor Roland Duguay presented slight- modifications in resolutions the board passed in

was asked to check' with the pros- September providing for the bor-ecutor concerning attempts to • rowing of funds for the balance collect unpaid ambulance service of 1968. He said the new clauses bills turned over to the county

• by private ambulance operators. Supervisors noted an increase of "uncollectible" b i l l s being submitted to the county, with the feeling expressed that the county should demand more efforts by the operators before coming to the county.

The printing, veterans and government commltteewillstudy a request from the City of St. Johns for county participation in a proposed courthouse lawn memorial for county men who have lost their lives in military service to the United States.

THE BOARD approved a $494 bid to paint shingles on the courthouse roof after a t t e m p t s to sandblast stains failed to work entirely satisfactorily. ' Supervisor Reginald Nelson of DeWltt Township reported the State of Michigan has deferred action on ownership of the Capitol City Airport until after the new county boards of supervisors take office. He said a legislative committee has proposed a compromise which they thought the new county boards might accept — a recommendation tha t the state maintain control of the airport, with a three~county-and-state board to be set up to work out airport needs in the' three counties.

Cargo vans to aid state's 'sister9 country

Six motor-driven vans will leave Michigan Nov. 1 for British Honduras with their cargo of hope for the residents of that country.

Materially the trucks will be loaded with farm m a c h i n e r y , large appliances, school and hospital equipment and many other items considered necessities in this country but luxuries to the people of that small country just north of the Panama Canal.

The Michigan Partners of the Alliance—a non profit organization functioning under the auspices of the Alliance for Progress—has as its partner country British Honduras, where the per capita income is less than $200 annually.

The purpose of the Michigan Partners of the Alliance is to build a creative and enduring partnership between our people and the people of the Central American country. A small town named Stann Creek Is a direct partner to St. Johns.

Since the f o r m a t i o n of the Michigan Partners in February 1966, a nine-member program development team traveled to British Honduras to survey problems and n e e d s . Dr Eugene Frlesen, pastor of the St. Johns P i l g r i m Uni ted Methodist Churches was on that team.

Several projects have developed since the group returned and helping, to fill these vans is apro-ject Clinton residents can take part in directly.

This summer a group of St. Johns area residents,from the P i l g r i m Uni ted Methodist Churches traveled by bus to ,our partner country and can relate the needs of the people. The group spent 7 days touring the country meeting and working with its citizens.

The vans will be driven by students of atruck drivers course in Lansing who will make this drive as part of their final exam. They will leave Nov. 1, and until that time area residents are asked to donate: 1) used farm equipment in good repair; 2) appliances; 3) anything of value for schools, hospitals, civic groups, and churches. '

Donated items may be left at the Pilgrim Uni ted Methodist parsonage at the corner of DeWltt and'Parks roads. More information may be obtained by contacting Dr Eugene Frlesen.

This is an opportunity to share in a 'project not of charity but of hope—hope given to a group of people which will help them to help themselves," he said.

"Michigan, could not have chbsen a better partner than British H o n d u r a s . Given the necessary guidance, assistance, tools, and encouragement these sincere pedple will emerge anew nation achieving full, economic and social maturity." -

in the two related resolutions would more 'fully explain the needs of the county and would meet the requirements of a new form request of the finance commission. The board approved. They are.seeking to b o r r o w $150,000 to meet "unforeseen costs not provided in the budget for the current year."

The board passed a resolution requiring a deposit of 50per cent of the estimated cost of preliminary survey work when drain officals do surveying for new drainage districts within subdivisions. D r a i n Commissioner Dale Chapman requested the fee, pointing out that the county could otherwise lose c o n s i d e r a b l e money if subdividers dec ide costs are too high for a drainage district after the county has done prollminary work.

CIVIL DEFENSE D i r e c t o r Charles Frost was granted per- • mission to attend a state civil defense meeting in Muskegon in December.

Supervisors Gerald Shepardof Bath Township and Maurice Gove of Bingham Township were appointed Clinton's representatives onthenewTri-County Mental Health Board that will take effect Jan. 1. . .

The b o a r d approved a $1,164.72 appropriation request for the Grand River Watershed Council.

A request for a phone aid floor carpeting in the circuit court assignment clerk's office was approved. The carpeting was requested because the office is above the county clerk's vault

On delicate, f r a g i l e fabrics such stains are often colorless and don't show up un t i l after they've "aged" a bit. Then they begin to turn a brownish color. They'll also become visible when exposed to air or especially to heat.

We have special techniques for dealing with many such stains, which won't come out

-in regular cleaning. One technique is called "spot digesting*. It uses the sameprinci-ple our bodies use to digest food. A special "live" enzyme is used to "digest" the stain prior to cleaning, without harming the fabric or its color. This has to be done at carefully controlled temperatures.

The number of large on-the-farm grain drying units lnMichl-gan Is s m a l l but i n c r e a s i n g , according to George McQueen, Clinton County Extension agricultural agent,

'The dozen or more such units drying 40,000 or more bushels need to have capacity to dry as -as much as 3,000to4,000bushels on some days and average about some days and average about 2,000 bushels a day," he reports.

According to M c Q u e e n and Robert L.Maddex,MlchlganState University agricultural engineer, the "dryeratlon* operation can be

.quite successful in this large sized operation.

In the dryeratlon operation, they explained, the grain Is r e moved from the heated air drying unit at about 17 per cent and placed In a steeping bin. After being allowed to stand for eight hours thecornlscooledwlthalow air now of unhealed air, »

This air cooling removed another three to four per cent of moisture at a rather low cost to the operator.

MADDEX SAYS THE grain Is

not subjected to high s t resses of high temperatures at the end of the drying cycle. This reduces cracking and s c o r c h i n g of the grain. At the same time, the cost of drying is reduced.

This process may also be tied to the 'automated batch* or "continuous flow systems* of mechanized grain.handling, comments Maddex.

The agricultural engineer says

much planning and development needs to go Into any system, large or small. Grain h a r v e s t i n g , handling, storage and drying must be tied together In a total program.

""A farmer should look over many operations and find the one he thinks would best fit his crop system, available labor and plans for the future," M a d d e x concludes. '

Treat fields now for yellow rocket

The presence of yellow rocket in alfalfa next spring can be greatly cut back by treating fields this fall with MCPA,saysGeorge McQueen, Clinton County Extension agricultural agent.

Applied at the rate of a half pound of actual chemical per acre after one or two killing frosts, ' MCPA will eliminate much of the yellow rocket that will otherwise be seen In alfalfa fields next

.spring. Many other b r o a d l e a f weeds will be c o n t r o l l e d too. Hoever, spraying in the .fall after legumes become dormant Is necessary to prevent Injury.

Waiting until next spring or late winter to spray is hazardous since the legumes may not be dormant and Injury will occur. Also MCPA should not be applied In the year the alfalfa is seeded, McQueen cautions.

A man has to weather a real storm before he realizes how much he's worried over squalls.

By GEORGE McQUEEN Extension'Agricultural Agent

It may seem confusing if not impossible to plan a corn handling system for your farm. When separated into segments or steps, however, it becomes

.easier to match all parts . Firs t would be method of har

vest. W h a t kind and size of a machine will you be u s ing? O n e should plan on only 15 good h a r v e s t i n g days each fall. W i l l you be h a r v e s t ! n g e a r s o r shelled corn and do you want to use it as dry corn or as silage?

Most corn grain operations now involve field shelling with the intention of using dry ker nels. However, the same steps a re involved with each system, and only machine and storage are different.

After taking the kernels off the plant, we must consider moving them to storage. Usually few

problems occur here . Most problems and bottlenecks

1 occur now. Too often the dryer or storage before the dryer will not hold a day's harvest of the field machine. The dryer should dry in 16 hours what the field machine can deliver in 10hours. Temporary storage at the dryer may be a wet holding bin or Just more wagons for storage when using a batch column dryer.

Of course, adequate storage units need to be arranged so all units—unloading^ wet holding bin, dryer, storage bins and unloading

^from storage — may be easily controlled with minimum time and physical labor.

When in doubt about any phase for your farm, plan on the large side. More problems occur from under-estimating your operation than in being too big._

Steps to consider are these: 1) Harvesting—ear or kernel;

wet or dry. 2) Moving to dryer or storage, 3) Handling at the storage or

dryer. 4) Storage. 5) Moving out of'storage. 6) Processing if fed.

The tv - largest programs are the feed grain and wheat p r o grams. This yearfeedgrainpro-ducers received diversion payments of $874,541 andprice support payments of $277,899. These payments a re estimates, because we have a few producers who have not received their payment this year due to failure to fully comply^ with program regulations. These feedgrainpayments were earned by 1,564 producers in our county.

This "year wheat producers in our county earned $590,000 in wheat certificate p a y m e n t s . These payments were earned by 1,531 producers.

The domestic wheat marketing certificates were $1.38 per bushel, based on the producer's p ro jected production for the wheat acreage planted up to 40percent of his allotment. Based on the national average price support of $1.25 per bushel, and certificates

WE HAVE 570 farmers pa r ticipating in the agricultural conservation p r o g r a m this year; they will earn in excess of$100,-000. The practices that use the most of our funds are : liming, tile drainage, green manure, and winter cover crop.

We had 197 wool and lamb producers who earned payments in the amount of $25,573.02.

This is the last year for eight producers participating in t h e soil bank p r o g r a m , as their agreements expire this year. They earned an annual payment of $5,294.45.

There a re eighty-eight p r o ducers participating in the cropland adjustment program. These producers earned a total annual payment of $111,549.85. Trwnty-six of these producers a l s o signed up to allow hunting on their farms and earned a total annual payment of $4,922.65.

This year we have 16 farmers producing sugar beets. Lastyear only four farmers produced beets in our county. The payment they received was $4,642.

* % E rfXy-Etefi^ bigAncrease'' in the number ofproudcers using our pric~e suppbrt loan program this year. The loan program is an important factor in the market price of commodities. Last year we had 126 loans for the whole year; this year we have more loans and anticipate a lot of loan activity for soybeans and corn. It would be hard at this time to determine the total loan value of commodities that will be placed under the loan program.

So far this year we have made seven new facility and drying equipment loans. With the market price for most commodities below support price, moreproduc-ers a re purchasing storage to store on the farm and use the price support program.

I urge all farmers to contact our office If they have any questions regarding the programs we administer.

Farmers have it within their power to bring market supplies of grain into balance with demand. The key is more extensive use of the program tools available. .

reached a 1968 high in September, should maintain lower levels in October, says a Michigan State U n i v e r s i t y agricultural economist,

Dr Henry Larzelere reports that while prices paid by wholesale distributors in Detroit for grade A large eggs vaulted to 54 cents in September, they have fallen back to the mid 40s in the last few weeks. The MSU egg specialist says that store prices are usually about 12 cents more a dozen than those paid by wholesale distributors.

Larzelere says the recent decline in prices is due, in part, to consumers not buying at last month's high levels. Storeprices frequently reached 70 cents a

Lane markings in experiment The Department of State High

ways is experimenting with extruded thermoplastics in an effort to find longer lasting lane marking material for use on state highways.

The plastics contain thousands of microscopic glass beads for reflective purposes and are said to have life expectancies of three to seven years.

Standard lane marking paint has a life of six months to a year and must be repainted at least once a year.

Part of the Worship Service on Sunday morning was for the presentation of pledges for the Fund of Reconciliation. The purpose of this fund is to' present our offerings to support God's mighty purpose of reconciliation and reconstruction through the church.

Many consumers complained that they had never seen eggs so high. However, the average cost of eggs in September was about the same as that in September 1966, Larzelere points out. Last year prlceswerelowerthan usual in the fall, he adds.

For the next few months egg prices should continue about 10 cents above those paid last year,

Gourds festive decoration

Christmas workshop here planned Nov. 5

By HELEN B. MEACH Extension Home Economist

The garden has given up its golden harvest of pumpkins to the grandchildren. I expect they •will make the grandest jack-o-lanterns in all the world!

The gourds were picked very carefully so tha t they might be used for festive table ar-rangements for mother, g randmother and the neighbors.

Grandson Bob made sure that each gourdwas ripe before cutting it frpm the vine. He used the clippers and lef tan inch or more of stem.

The gourd harvest was carefully washed in sudsy water, Rinsed and dried. Now they are set aside u n t i l they are completely dried inside—so dry that the seeds rattle when the gourds are shaken.

On Bob's next trip to the farm, the gourds will be ready for a coating of thin white shellac. Two coats are best, followed by an. application of liquid floor wax. After a 20-minute drying period comes the polishing to a high

\ gloss. Bright shining gourds are in

expensive and lovely for fall decorations. Fo l lowing this treatment, these hard fruits can be preserved to last indefinitely.

Mere lsa*DidYouKnowStory* to tell about your gourds. It is a true story, too. Once upon a time on the island of Haiti (165 years ago) King Henri Christo-phe set up his exotic reign. Then he learned that his treasury was barren.

Years of warfare against Napoleon's troops had ruined the economy of the once-rich colony. The freed slaves had so little money that a taxation program was impossible.'

The sly king looked-aroundfor something that his subjects simply could not do without—and he settled on gourds because these

T hardy plants were used as kitch-jjeûtensUs^dlnnerwar^/âter

basins and ^drinking vessels'. By "/gathering"in *theVntire* gourd

harvest and piling it in his empty treasury, he had a commodity every person on the island had to buy. T6 this day, the paper currency in that tropical republic is called the "gourde" note. This is evidence of how really valuable these hard - shelled fruits can be!

tension office and Information on how to join an Extension Club will be set up by Mrs Lloyd Ford.

It is believed that commercial car washing began in Portland, Ore., in 1912. The automobile laundry was housed in a 60 x 40 foot building. Covered with, mud and dirt, an automobile was driven in one end of the building and would emerge, 15 minutes later, from the other end with its brass burnished and e n a m e l shining, for a $1.50 charge.

Youthful travelers give Woman's Club new views of Europe, world * International affairs"seen

through the eyes o! our youthful European travelers Was the topic of the day at the Oct. 16 meeting of the St. Johns Woman's Club.

Mrs Robert Ditmer was hostess for the club at 1006 Hampshire Drive.

Mrs Walter Graham, acting as chairman of the day, introduced the young members of the panel

who were to discuss their experiences in Europe.

Miss Lisa* Davis, in the student exchange program, led the way by telling of her life as a member of a Danish family and also of her trips *to Sweden and Norway with her Danish sister.

The boys, Dale Feldpausch, Rick Warren, Bob Cartwright and Douglas Barker, were apart

of the Foreign LanguageLeague, a non-profit organization that took 162 students from all parts of the United States to universities in England, Holland, Germany and Italy. A part of each day was spent in study and'the rest in sightseeing. Some college credit is earned for this.

The boys enjoyed their contacts with their European friends

and learned from them as they tried to correct some preconceived ideas l e a r n e d about America from our movies and T-V programs.

Iron in these techniques

By LORRAINE SPRAGUE Extension Home Economist

Ironing is the traditional finishing touch for home laundry so that wrinkles may be removed and a fresh, crisp appearance added to garments and household linens. Man-made fibers and finishes coupledwith modern equipment have eliminated much of the ironing task. However, there still remains a fair number of garments that can be i m proved with i ron ing , or even "touch-up" pressing. ,

There are three b a s i c

of hand today,

are dry dry and

types irons They only, steam, and dry-steam-spray. The kind of iron a homsmaker selects depends on her individual family laundry requirements.

Dry irons usua l ly require dampening of the fabrics and often require that a pressing cloth be used also. v

Steam irons eliminate the need to_ dampen many items. Steam and spray irons, thenewesttype, permit spot-dampening of most fabrics as they are Ironed.

Most synthetic fabrics do not require any pre-dampening. Untreated natural fiber fabrics do' require dampening. Damp drying in an automatic dryer Is probably the simplest type of damp- , ening. Removing garments from a line before they are completely dry is another relatively easy technique. Some homemakers prefer hand sprinkling. This Is best done by using v, arm water for deeper moisture penetrat'on into the fabric.

AFTER DAMPENING, the clothes should be folded or tightly rolled, being careful not to press unnecessary -wrinkles into the article. Storingthe dampened articles 'in a plastic bag or wrapping them tightly in a turk-Ish towel for about two hours serves two purposes: 1) deep penetration of moisture and 2) prevents drying of outer surfaces.

r,, Iron, temperatures must be gauged to the !fibet' and"fa'Efcic finish, with careful testing on hidden areas if you are not sure of the requirement. Starting with those articles calling for lowest temperatures and proceeding to those needing the highest temperature can be time saving. If the- fabric consistsôf a blend of fibers, always use the temperature required by the most delicate fiber.

Ironing is technically a sliding motion of the iron and following the grain of .the fabric. Pressing is lifting up and setting down of the iron from one section to the next.

In general, most fabrics should-be ironed from the wrong side, with "touch -<• ups" on collars, cuffs, pockets, etc. from the right side. Fabrics that have a tendency to "shine" when ironed on the right side, require the use of a protective pressing cloth.

Monograms, embroideries or appliques sometimes cause special problems for the inexperienced. If such designs are placed face down on a turkish towel and ironed from the wrong side you can achieve an attractive raised effect to the decoration. Ironing them from the right side produces a dull, flat appearance. Delicate laces and open work respond favorably when a thin pressing cloth is used to protect the fabric.

Table linens, cloths, napkins and place mats need to be uniformly damp. To give a sh&en to the linen fabric, iron first on the wrong side and finish with a right side ironing.

THINK OJy THESE THINGS i

g: A devotional message written each week '4t by a pastor of a Clinton County church

» By JUSTIN SHEPARD MINISTER

Duplaln Church of Christ

In considering 'whatsoever things are honest,* we must necessarily mention the fine art of "stretching the truth,* Are you familiar with it? Gooseberries are to be heard of weighing twice as much as possible, and unseen showers of frogs fall regularly when newspapers are slack. If a cart goes by and rattles the lid of an old woman's teapot, It Is put down as an earthquake. Fine Imaginations are not scarce. They see comets every night and hear ra re tales every day. All their molehills are mountains. All their ducks are swans, They have learned the multiplication table and use it freely.

Nobody Is fit to clean their shoes! They are the cream of creation. They are as strong as Samson, and could pull a team, only they will not try It for fear of hurting the horses. Their wealth Is enormous; they could pay off the national debt. If they keep shop they turn over several millions In the year and only stop for the sake of the neighbors. They sell goods at the lowest prices, In fact under cost price. If they take a farm it Is only for amusement, and to show the

v poor natives how to do It. "Did you ever see such a horse?* "Why sir , It could be the wind I • "That cow-let me tell you about her, there is not such another in the county; Just notice the swing of her tail) Yes sir that boy of mine is intelligent, far beyond his years, a perfect prodigy.* Like his father did you say? *A very kind remark and there is a deal of truth in it. I am one too many for most people. Just look over the farm. Was there ever such a field of turnips—too many moles did you say? Ah! Now there Is a story! Do you know that our moles throw up bigger hills than any others, and are supposed to be of a fine old stock now almost lost? Did you notice that tremendous thistle? Isn't it enough to make a Scotchman jump for joy? It shows the extraordinary richness of the soilj and indeed, our last year 's crop of wheat was so heavy, I thought we should never get it home. It nearly broke the wagons; we had half the county here to see It threshed, and the oldest men said they never heard tell of the like. It is a mercy that steam Is invented, or we never

, could have threshed It by hand."

(The ar t of stretching—continued nest week.)

New water g*««w meter OK'd | H e l P , u s W l t h recipes | at Elsie

ELSIE—Elsie residents will v have remote water meters in- *:•' stalled at their homes beginning £ this fall, allowing for village em- •:• ployees to read the meters re.- :•: gularly without tramping through :•: the house. ^ :•:

The village council voted last :•: week to s tar t the work,as soon :•; as possible, with Elsie employ- :•: ees doing the job. It will be well , .•:• into next year, however, before 3§ all the present lnthehouse me- •:•: ters are replaced with the new j:*: ones. ;•:•

The new meters will cost r e - W sldents $15. After they a re installed, the village will assess each water user an extra $5 per quarter for three quarters until the cost is paid.

Tha actual meters will still be in the homes, but they'll be connected to a dial on the outside of the home that will allow village employees to read them more conveniently.

The village council also last week approved the installation of about two-thirds of a block of new sidewalk on the north side of the 200 block of East Pine Street. Kaufman Construction Co, is expected to start the work yet this fall at an estimated cost of 60 cents per squarefoot. Some half-dozen property owners affected will be assessed 50 per cent of the cost, with the village a t -large paying the other half.

Attention all readers of the Clinton County News! The holiday season is fast approaching.

* To assist our readers at this busy time, we extend to all an invitation to submit holiday recipes or ideas for a special "Kitchen Ideas" supplement to be published In November. y

All materials should include the recipe or Idea, typed or clearly written In as brief but complete form as possible.

The beautiful mountainous country of Guatemala was the summer home this year of Jean M. Schaefer, 20, daughter of Albert J. Schaefer of East M-21, St. Johns.

Miss Schaefer spent 10 weeks teaching at the American School in Guatemala City. The intern teaching program was sponsored by Michigan S ta te University where Miss Schaefer is a junior in the school of home economics.

Guatemala, a Central American country, is about the size of Pennsylvania and has a population of nearly 3 million.

Miss Schaefer taught eighth grade math to American and Guatemalan children. Although her classes were in English, Miss Schaefer enrolled in courses to improve her Spanish.

When she wasn't teaching, Miss Schaefer was learning about Guatemalan culture. She traveled extensively through the small but picturesque country.

MAYAN RUINS and Antigua, the old Spanish colonial capital, reminded Miss Schaefer of the civil izations that flourished many years ago in Guatemala. She also visited several beautiful lakes that were isolated high in volcanic mountain ranges.

"Guatemala is a land of contrasts," Miss Schaefer said. She saw families living in huts and

DeWitt bans students from outside district

DeWITT-The DeWitt Board of Education met last night and set a policy banning students who live o u t s i d e the district from enrolling in the local school system. Five non-resident students now In the high school will be allowed to remain until they graduate.

The board rejected a $700 offer for timber on the high school property and announced the site would be used for an outdoor laboratory. Two new school buses will be financed through the Woodruff State Bank at a cost of $15,554. Mrs Suzanne Mas-lanski was hired to teach choir in the high school.

is concentrated in the hands'of a few very influential people.

Guatemala City, the capital, is t he trade center for the country.

"The Central Market was one of the most fascinating places I visited," Miss Schaefer sa id . "All the Indians from the surrounding countryside bring their produce into town to sell. Each wears his native costume, creating a colorful scene."

Before returning to the United States, Miss Schaefer traveled through Mexico. In Mexico City< she spent an exciting afternoon at a bullfight.

The recent political unrest In Guatemala did not spoil her summer. She had been aware of the disrupting factions and anti-United States sentiments, Miss Schaefer said, but the Guatemalans she met on her trip were all very courteous and helped make her stay memorable.

It's a poor rule thatwon'twork both ways—money talks, but it just won't listen.

By,ROBERT ELDRIDGE Road Clerk

The -weather these past few weeks hag been Ideal for working on the new road construction projects we have under way in the county,

The sand sub-base and gravel base is completed on the Lowe Road, Lowell Road, Meridian

Road and Coleman Road projects. Considerable fill has been hauled on the Clark Road, Alward Road and Upton Road projects and c r e w s are presently hauling nyiierial to the Colbny Road project west of V/right Road. Op the new construction, wher e the base work is considered completed,' grading, V U still be done and any washouts or other faults that develop In the base will be repaired until next year when the

k seal coat will be applied. Gravel and sand in the southern

part of ,the county is a continuing problem. Good gravel is almost unobtainable in the southern tier of townships and so It must be hauled all the way across the county. This slows down the work,

of course, and increases the cost considerably. A man and a truck cost Just about as much per day hauling five loads or 10, but the cost of the gravel that is hauled

, decreases considerably on the larger number of loads,

There is a great deal of good sand throughout the county but it isbe coming increasingly difficult to buy. Most people, I believe, want better roads but it seems that practically no one wants a gravel or sand pit anywhere near "their home. Even in areas where the gravel or sand is not Immediately adjacenttoresidences there are p r o t e s t s from property owners along the haul route. These protests are not all unwarranted, by any means, for

neither the county nor the contractors have been completely blameless In the past both In the manner of'haullng the material nor in the way pits have been left as eyesores'after the material has been mined.

Pitts do not have, to be left as offenses against nature, however, and much can be done to alleviate the noise and dust involved in hauling. There are many depleted gravel and-sand p i t s throughout the state that give evidence to' the fact that these areas can be assets to a community when the removal work and the cleanup afterwards are properly planned and accomplished. This planning must and will be done in the future and

probably much can be done to rectify past mistakes so that the bad image of a gravel pit will be changed.

In any event, if we are to continue building roads there must be a meeting of the minds in the matter of obtaining materials. For the sake of economy and of progress neither side can or s,hou!d take an unreasoning and Immovable attitude.

Student volunteers at Michigan State University serve in a nationally know program of public service projects - that includes summer tutoring in Mississippi and work in dozens of central Michigan public schools.

3 youths nabbed in Westphalia burglary try

Thre young persons, one a , junvenile under ,16 years of age, were captured allegedly in the act of burglarizing the Pohl Oil Co. at Westphalia early last Thursday morning.

• were Patrick L. Hamilton, 19, of Lansing, and RichardL.Amon, 18, also of Lansing. A third youth, was referred to probate court,

Clinton County Deputy Sheriff

Tony Hufnagel said he caught the three in the act of burglarizing the service station garage while he was on a routine patrol in Westphalia. Entry to the building was made through a rear, door after breaking the glass.

Hamil ton and Amon were charged with breaking and entering and conspiracy to break and enter. Theywaivedexamfna-tlon before Justice of the Peace Gordon Willyoung and were bound over s to circuit court for an .Oct. 28 hearing.

A black eye .could mean serious internal damage to the eyeball and should be seen by a doctor.

(Editor's Note: Jane and Pete Allaby, daughter and son of Mr and Mrs A, T.vAUaby of St. Johns, were among a half-dozen St, Johns youths who spent about six weeks in Europe this summer on a study tour sponsored* by the Foreign Language'League Schools. Tills is the first of a two-part series written by them.)

(Next week's Issue will continue, the story _by Jane and Pete Allaby and 183 other American students in Europe.)

By JANE ALLABY • and PETE ALLABY

'When we signed up for this trip, neither of us realized what learning experiences we were getting into. We left Philadelphia with 183 American students. There were nine from St. Johns and Mrs Beatrice Barnum was our counselor. We learned a great deal about America and Europe. We can't begin to list each thing but we will try to give you .(an impression of each country as we saw it.

Our first stop was in London. We noticed a relaxed atmosphere about the people—no rushing around trying to get anywhere in a hurry. This is the "European mood" and very prevalent all over, Europe. We were impressed 'by the mini-skirts and long hair. The people there are more individualistic than we are. Every Sunday the flower people gather in Hyde Park; the most surprising thing there is the •Speakers Corner" where anyone can make a speech .on any subject except to critlze the queen, Very few pay attention to these _speakers. It seems like it is a" form of British amusement.

The English people have a great sense of tradition and history. They really don't care about today, as they did about their golden years. '

Shopping on Carnaby Street was one of the many things we did in London. The shops were really quite Impressive. There was music everywhere and some boutiques even had live bands.

% interesting

When you walked- into, a shop you didn't hear our. traditional "May I help you?" but instead

1 you just looked'until you found what you wanted.

An all day excursion to Shakespeare Country, including Oxford, was very pleasant. We had known that the Lumbert family was in London but imagine our, surprise to meet them at a rest stop on their way to Stratford, too. In the evening we attended "Dr Faustus" at the famous Shapespearean Theatre. The acting, lighting, and sound effects were superb. London was especially pretty as we returned about midnight.

Besides seeing all the other "musts" while visiting London, we took a boat trip down the River Thames. We passed under the London Bridge ( so ld to Arizona and in the process of being torn down), past the spot where the Pilgrims set sail for Holland and on down to Green

wich. Zt. was a long walk up the hill to the observatory and the clock, but it was worth the effort.

HOLLAND WAS OUR next stop. We crossed the North Sea on a six hour boat ride. The climate was very different than what we had experienced in London. It was quite warm with the sun

'shining brightly. We were impressed with the Netherlands being so modern, and disappointed In the lack of windmills, although we were taken later to a low swampy area near Rotterdam that had very picturesque windmills in every direction. We toured one that was still in operation.

The Dutch people are very energetic and Ingenious by nature, having had to fight the sea for generations.

The Netherlands is really a . beautiful place, and we swam In

the North Sea. We were located near Leiden where the-PU-

We visited the Peace Palace where the World Court and the Court of Arbitration are held. It is a beautiful Building, impossible to describe.

I (Pete) especially liked it because I hope to be a lawyer someday, and who knows — I might be there defending the USA.

We also visited Delfts, a towh that is noted the world over for its pottery. Everyone bought some.

• WHILE THERE WE visited a diamond cuttery, which was very interesting, and had the opportunity to try on rings valued up to $15,000. On our free time we shopped for food consisting of peanut butter, Jelly, and bread for the long trip to Rome. We knew we'd be provided with food, but you know the adage «always be prepared." Besides we were Jus t plain hungry for peanut butter. Little did we. know that our coordinator was using his free time to contact a Foreign Language League agent In Cologne, Germany, to assure our needs and comfort while on this long ride from Leiden to Romo,

We left Holland by tour bus for a six-hour ride through the beautiful- countryside, stopping at a very modern rest area for lunch Just before reaching the German border. The German Autobans are superb; buses Just floated over them. We kept see-

As we were told that we'd be passing through a corner of Switzerland early in the morning, we fell into our bunks Immediately to get a little needed shut-eye. By six o'clockwewere wide awake and smapping pictures like mad of the gorgeous Swiss Alps.

At Milan, Italy, our three coaches were attached to another train. We were told later that the League was tracking us on

Dr Oliver Hall ' guest speaker at Price Church

s Dr Oliver Hall of the-"MSU faculty, was the speaker at the Price.Church Family Night'pro-gram on Thursday evening, Oct. 17. Dr Hall was a former pastor-of Price Church, The people-of the Shepardsville Church- 'were invited and several attended. Dr Hall has recently returned from a stay on the campus of the University of Nigeria, and had a lot to say about the circumstances leading up to the present situation. One experience he had was near the end of the school year. Commencement exercises were set for the following day and the staff had met for their final consultation, but the c h a n c e l l o r wasn't there nor the man that was to deliver the address. They were attending a hastily called meeting of government officials. Soon the chancellor showed up af the meeting with the announcement that was imminent. The exercises would be held in two hours. E v e r y t h i n g went off smoothly. When it was over the people were told that they had just half an hour to get out. They went in all directions. Dr Hall returned the next day, and was told again that he had Just one-half hour to get' out. He did, taking with him just what he could put in a suit case. All the personal belongings he and his wife took with them were left behind, even some pictures that he had taken to show the people, his , camera, and all equipment. He had to purchase new when he returned.

He was asked If there was any chance of being returned. He said that he doubted it. The question was also asked If there was anything that could be done. Those attending were told that it was almost impossible to get food and supplies through, even International Red Cross planes were being shot down.

There being no more questions^ Dr Hall then showed some slides and movies that he had managed to bring with him. The people were called IBOS. The-s l ides showed the country side, some of the villages, and towns, the university and customs of the people. The women are very stately. They get that way by carrying e v e r y t h i n g 'on* their heads*, starting from early childhVod. The men are tall and .stately, also. The movies showed how the people farmed. There' are not many tractors, the work is done with a short hand implement that chops up the soil.

He also said that some of his staff members were willing to fight for what they believed in and would gladly give up their lives if necessary.

The Methodist Men's Club met at the church Monday evening for a Pizza supper. The p r o g r a m speaker was a State Police Officer. Some of the men brought a guest with them.

The B e r e a n Circle of the Shepardsville WSCS ' m e t last Thursday evening, Oct. 17, atthe home of Mrs Carol Billing. There was a small attendance. Miss Donna Hettinger had charge of

•the program. Her topic was on Minority Groups, taken from the Methodist Woman Magazine. Mrs Clare Alderman had charge of the Devotions. She used as her scripture lesson readings from. Psalm 119:33-40 and from Matt; 22:35-40.

The next meeting will be on Nov. 21 at the home of Mrs R o b e r t Henderson. Mrs Ilene Hettinger will be in charge of the program and Mrs Dale Squiers the devotions. There will be a Chinese Auction.

Sunday morn ing at the Shepardsville United Methodist Church was Laymen's Sunday.

Kill pollution We a re now getting the opportunity to

< put our "vote" where our "mouth** i s . r

Of la te , everyone has been harping on pollution. I t ' s been the "in thing" W dp. .All we had to do to harp on pollution was open our mouths. We used different whipping boys from t ime to t ime, but the main ppint -was always the same: that.pollution simply was 'bad. .

We get a chance to do something about what* we've been harping on so ' l ong on Nov. 5. The re will be two s ta te p roposa l s on the ballot. They will provide $435,000,000 for very c r i t i ca l needs in Michigan—sewage t r ea tmen t s p lan t s , s e w e r s , pa rks and r e c reat ion. When matched with federal and local funds, the r e su l t will be $1.37 billion for these c r i t ica l i t ems .

Now we get our chance. We get to vote "yes" for Clean water or go on doing nothing more .about dirty s t r e a m s , dying lakes and dead fish than crabbing about them.

Bond issues, a re the economical way to finance these p ro jec t s , and putting them off will mere ly inc rease the cos ts of What we must do. Construction costs a re soar ing. Land, cos ts a r e climbing. And in te res t r a t e s a r e lower now than they may be s e v e r a l y e a r s from now. -

If these proposa ls a r e not pas sed , there is a day not far ahead when drinking water

•will be del ivered to your home in bottles and cost as much or more as soft dr inks . Most of us will have to camp in our own backyards to" a s s u r e finding a space , not a l ready filled. And our inner c i t ies may well be worse than they a re today, .

We a re getting our chance to stop harping and s t a r t voting.

I We urge you to consider s ta te p r o posa l s 3 and 4 on Nov. 5. • «»—•

Get out the vote In the las t election* one thi rd of the

nat ion ' s eligible ci t izens failed to vote and thereby c a r r y out the f i r s t obligation that every U.S. ci t izen owes to himself and his country. Between now and election day, every voter should take the t ime to fami l i a r i z e himself with candidates and the point of view they r ep re sen t .

In this y e a r ' s general election, the Amer ican people Will se lec t a P res iden t and thousands of other office holders including U-.S. sena tors and r e p r e s e n t a t i v e s , governors and state l eg i s l a to r s . These officials will make and- administer ' the laws of the land-'under ; which we all must l ive. They will decide on the ro le of government in our l ives , the amount of taxes we must

"pay, the wars we1 must fight and how many of our young men must s e r v e in which

TOTHE J '

EDITOR/ Reed clarifies

district court plan

Dear Sir: _' ' •

In discussing the new district court with various residents of the county,! find a certain amount of misinformation and confusion

' regarding'the number of magistrates who will be appointed .

•Perhaps this should beclarified, as it may be that some of the appointments being anticipated will not materialize, at least hot Immediately, ,

The statute .which created the district court requires that in a county such as Clinton the board of supervisors shall provide for one magistrate. Inits discretion, the board of supervisors may provide for additional mag i s trates. In all cases, the magistrate will be appointed by the district judge, subject to approval and confirmation by the county board of supervisors.

Since the county board of supervisors will have the last word

. as to how many magistrates will be appointed and who they, will be. It would be most presumptuous for either candidate for district judge to make promises or predictions in this area.

The statute requires 'that the magistrate sit in the county seat and in each incorporated city within the county which does not have a traffic bureau office. The presiding judge may designate other locations for the magistrate, but this is subject to the requirement that the board of supervisors must provide facilities for the magistrate. Until a traffic bureau is established, again within the discretion of the county board of supervisors, and an office established in the City of DeWitt, it would appear that St. Johns and DeWitt would have the services of a magistrate. Whether this will be the same magistrate or two magistrates will depend on the board of supervisors.

As a former member of the county board of supervisors for some years and well acquainted with its procedures, I.would expect that .the board wift study -with some "care the needs of'the" various communities in the county before authorizing additional magistrates. As an illustration of the fact that fragmentation of the court is not always .desired, I would cite the fact that the municipal court of St. Johns serves the villages of Fowler, Maple Rapids, Westphalia, and Ovid by choice of the villages.

Very truly yours, HAROLD B. REED

"IF IT FITZ

One a week is plenty By JIM FITZGERALD

Back Thru \ the Years !

Something a poet said recently has given me nerve enough to. write a column my mother said I wouldn'.t dare write or she'd shoot me. It's about tak ing baths.

The poetls Phillip G, Bron-stein who, the newspapers said, intends to write some • angry verse about such folk heroes as Mr Clean and the White Knight,

"The soap companies, the plumbing industry and Madison Avenue have brainwashed the people of ..this country," Bron-stein said. "Everybody is jumping in and but of their tubs and showers. The entire nation is obsessed with being clean. One Saturday night bath a week is enough for the normal human being."

Boy, I hope Mother read that. The first bath I can remem

ber, I was probably about 4 years old. I had been playing

hide and se,ek' with my older sister, Terrible Jean,land some other roughnecks. They couldn't find me because I'd hidden in a barrel in my g r a n d f a t h e r ' s barn. It was a barrel, of tar. Jean finally pried me free. When we got home, the neighbors thought the block was being integrated. •

Mother usually supervised the baths at our house. This didn't mean she scrubbed backs. She guarded the bathroom door and checked against fake baths. I was not above filling "the tub with water and then stirring it with a stock to p roduce the .sounds of a boy bathing. I would, also soak a towel and splash water, on the floor. Then I'd dampen my hair in the sink, button my pajamas to my neck, and run for bed.

The tar bath' was something else. It was man's work and my

father rolled up his sleeves and scrubbed with a brush usually used on the basement floor,;i He got me so clean he said I should probably be re- Introduced to my sisters so they wouldn't think a stranger was* sticking his nose In the frosting, bowl. The bath hurt, but there was one consolation. I'd fallen in the tar on Tuesday which was not a regular .bath day. Wednesday was. So at: least, after getting so

' clean on Tuesday, I could skip Wednesday's; bath. I thought. But mother* sentenced me to the tub again Wednesday • anyway, simply because it was Wednesday,

From that day forward I have known that my mother and mothers everywhere are duped shills for the soap industry. I wouldn't be surprised if most of them are getting kickbacks from Proctor & Gamble — probably free cold

cream, the better'to slither-with.- " - ' . . - '

I perfected, my fake bath technique in high schpol. I was on the tennis team which practiced everyday. Ohbath nightsl'dtell Mother I didn't need one because I'd taken a shower . at school after practice. Beautiful, Until

.the Sunday;;the pastor took up a special collection to remodel the school gym which was in such poor shape "the shower

• hasn't worked in two: years." Oh my..

Incidentally, old dogs can do old tricks. Today, I tell: my golf buddies I'll skip a shower at the club because I'll take one when I get home, and,I tell my wlfethe

» same thing I told Mother about tennis practice. Only the game has changed.

Poet Broristein is absolutely correct, A bath a week is enough. In fact, what with the incredible powers of Command and RightGuard, awell-sprayed man might go dry even longer if he is careful. He should always know which way the wind is blowing and position himself a c c o r d i n g l y . And he should never perspire (I'd say sweat but* Mother Is angry enough already).

I realize that, on hot days, a man must remain, completely Inactive to avoid perspiration. Which I think is marvelous. I often just sit in a cool tub all day. The only trouble is I can't sleep for fear someone will turn the water on. • Onward and Upward.

? T Paul Pride: ' I ,

FIBS AND FICTION OF TV SPECIALS EXPOSED

Rep. Henry B. Gonzales (Texas) ". . . Several months ago, CBS produced a film which purported to show the ' extent- of hunger in America. That film opened with a picture of a tiny infant being, treated with a re-sucitator, while the narrator intoned:

'This baby is dying of starvation. He was an American. Now he is dead.' "It was shocking,, almost ter

rifying scene, and probably one of the (most) provocative films ever seen on television anywhere. But the question immediately arises. Was the picture really conveying the truth? The fact is, Mr. Speaker, that'it was not. The fact is that CBS News did not have a picture of a baby' dying of malnutrition, but a baby dying because it was born prematurely, Some premature'babies are borri when the mother is malnourished, but in this case,, the mother was healthy and ' well npurished.i CBS has never bothered to document its .claim and does not deny my contention that H is a false oho,» , : . . - ' ' .

. "I have ample proof, that CBS produced a shocking picture,' but one. that was simply not true. Yet; the network now has beautiful and r expensive brochures touting theft programs, and fea-» luring that same picture, ...> :

breaking of the law to get a picture that was fictitious.

"The network owns the station, but it claims to have no, responsibility for this incident, The station management for its part claims that i t knew nothing about the staged party and was not responsible for it.

"There is* no law which says it is illegal for a network to broadcast a lie, no law against broadcasting the most blatant falsehoods, no law, saying that the truth shall be the responsibility of the broadcaster . . .

"Mr. Speaker, I am introducing a bill that will require the networks to get a license. I believe that any monopoly must be held accountable to the public. I believe that if the Federal. Communications Commission is empowered to grant or withhold a license to the networks, they will at last be accountable. Otherwise they can continue to make a mockery of journalistic responsibility. They can continue .to peddle fiction and call it fact . . .

"I seek not.to create a censor, and would.iight against anyone who did. I seek only to restore sdihc sense of public responsi-; bilily into networks which, like the robber barons of'old, havo none."

There is little hope in a portion of the populace, shunning f a c t s with hopes that troublesome situations will of their own accord eventually disappear.'

In communities across the nation people are increasing in numbers, and with this growth there naturally follows greater demands for public services such as streets, sewers, police and fire officials, municipal buildings and many other tax-supported enterprises* Ultimately the tab reachesMhe -pocketbook of the citizens desiring extended facilities, and in communities where this balance of demands Is recognized there is little question as to a successful existence.

«You can't f ight city hall" seems to be a phrase which has been around since. Co lumbus ' time, and while it rings with

unwillingness to develop understanding as a basis for solving true problems. Fighting city hall oft n is, in fact, fighting mutual interests, for there is probably no greater oppor tun i ty for government control than at the community level. Communities wherein citizens recognize the ultimate value of co-ordinated efforts invariably rise above the horizon of commonality.

As Idealistic as. it may sound, attitudes shape and mold the form of any group and there is greater merit in the dissolution of a constantly d iv ided association than to continue an internal struggle which offers no promise or resolve. Overall agreement is almost an impossibility, but a Wholesome attitude and sincere desire among people 'to share opinions toward a common goal does not necessarily make for compromise. It does, however, make for solid and prosperous communities.

Ask more college aid

LETTERS TO THE n

Greatly-expanded tax aid for the state's public colleges and universities Is the goal of the Mich igan Conference of the A m e r i c a n Association of University Professors (AAUP).

They fly our flag Mr andMrsDonaldlsbell

of 701 Church Street, St. Johns fly the flag on a tall pole in their back yard— a beautiful sight when the breeze ripples through the folds.

A study shows that present funding falls woefully short of meeting the Institutions' needs to provide for quality education.

"It is our conviction that the next few years will be crucial for- higher education in Mlch-lgan," the organization said. "If the practices of recent years are continued, theywill buy Michigan a third-rate system."

State colleges and universities currently receive $226,6 million a year in tax funds. They have been assigned a "target" figure of $240.3 million for fiscal 1969-70 by Gov. George Romney.

THE AÛP SAYS the governor and legislature should refrain from clamping a ceiling on appropriations to colleges .and universities and dole out whatever sum is necessary to make them the best in the country.

•The state can afford it, and any other course is self-defeating in that it provides an Inadequate education for the future leaders of the communities of the staie," it said, pointing to economic studies showing that personal income rose 5.23 per cent in Michigan last year.

"Michigan is the seventh most populous of the 50 states; it is a major industrial, state, and ranks in the top 10—as it should— In gross product, average earnings and family Income." •

Specifically, the AAUP suggested the L e g i s l a t u r e appropriate not less than $700 per year for eachfreshmanandsoph-omore enrolled at a state-supported i n s t i t u t i o n , $l,300for Juniors and seniors, $2,000 for master degree graduate students, and .$4,000 for doctoral degree and professional students. . Michigan State University and

the University of Michigan, the state's two largest schools, .now receive an average of $1,344 and $1,628 per student, respectively, in state aid.

The AAUP also called for additional funds to boost faculty salaries to ah average minimum of $12,400 annua l ly for professors, $11,170 for associate professors, $8,520 for assistant professors and $7,250 for instructors,

HIGHLY CRITICAL was the organization of the s t a t e ' s present budgetaryprpcess, which involves a review of each school's tax fund request by the governor's office, thebudgetbureau, theSen-ate appropriations committee and finally the Legislature Itself.

It said none of the agencies is properlyquallfledtodetermlne the colleges' needs, yet they invariably pare down the spending blueprints.

"The annual scramble for appropriations by our Institutions of higher education is highly wasteful of time and effort for all concerned," said AAUP.

"The p r o c e s s is crude, irrational and unsatisfactory. Neither ' the bureau, the governor, nor the c o m m i t t e e is adequately trained or staffed to evaluate or r e c o n c i l e the conflicting demands." /

Suggested by the AAUP was legislation turning over to the State Board of Education full a u t h o r i t y to scrutinize the spending .requests and determine financial needs.

Another recommendation proposed the board establish "minimum support standards* for all institutions, based on the objective of providing quality education for all in Michigan who desire it.

"Finally," the AAUP said, "We urge all responsible officials to develop and agree upon a long-range, state plan for higher education and more courageous than any of the preliminary drafts we have so far been furnished;*

'was always full of apples and cider every fall. He loved the land.

I haye never known a more loving husband, father and grand-

Lloyd was proud of his children, Saradel, Harold, and Raymond, and of his lovely wife, Ivadel, and they returned in measure his love, loyalty, and admiration.

The community of Bath has lost a great friend and citizen in his death, but, in a greater sense, he will never die so long as the many children he helped to train and educate live, for he will live on in their hearts and minds.

We were truly blessed to have had a man such as Lloyd Latchaw to head our schools and to be so vital a part of our community.

May God truly bless the mem« ory of this fine man and be with his family during their grief.

So long as we have men like Lloyd Latchaw In charge of the schools of our community, state, and nation, we can be sure that America will be a progressively better place in which to live,

I can say; sincerely, and with pride, it was an» honor to have known and to have served with Lloyd Latchaw.' He will be truly missed by all who knew him,
