State Police file request INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — The first governmental agency request marking the beginning of the 1969-71 budget preparation period was on file Friday, from the Indiana State Police. Such requests are the basis for the amount of money, which last biennium topped $2 billion, to be appropriated by the 1969 Legislature. However, the requests as filed with the Indiana Budget Agency often are reduced heavily before the formal two - year recommended budget gets into the hands of the legislators. Supt. Robert O’Neal’s request was for a two-year construction and rehabilitation budget totaling $2,224,250. Included are two proposed new district headquarters costing $455,100 each. One would replace Charlestown District Post 11 located in a converted residence on Indiana 62 with a new building in Clark County on Interstate 65. O’Neal said the present Charlestown post is too far from primary traffic. The other would be near Indianapolis and would replace ternporary District 9 headquarters at Stout Field. O’Neal said the Indiana National Guard, which owns the structures at Stout Field, needs the space. Also proposed was construction of 11 post garages and a headquarters service building. The garages would be located at Connersville, Szymour, South Bend, Schererville, Fort Wayne, Peru, Kentland, Redkey, Terre Haute, Versailles and Bloomington and would cost $27,600 each.
Baccalaureate will beat 11a.m. in the auditorium, and commencement exercises will be held in the ICC Gymnasium at 6 p.m. Lazy LONDON (UPI)— Postmaster General Roy Mason said Thursday that lazy phone callers cost the nation about $8.4 million annually. He explained that operators who traced numbers for callers cost about $16.2 million but half of the inquiries received could have as easily been found in the callers’ own telephone directories.
Outgoing officers are: Jeani Mishler, president Gayle Fisher, vice-president; Karen Earle, secretary; Kathy Ruark, treasurer; Judy Rowings, public relations; Pam Liston, reporter; Freida Green, historian; Connie Rammel, points chairman; Susan Silander, parliamentarian; Debbie Graff is, projects chairman; Lisa Bitzer, chaplain; Peggy Eppenheimer, and Cindy Black, recreation; and Mrs. Mishler, chapter mother. Mrs. Scholl is advisor.
Editor retires SAN DIEGO, Calif. (UPI)— Herbert G. Klein, editor of the San Diego Union, will relinquish his duties next week to join the campaign staff of Richard M. Nixon. Klein, a personal friend and consultant to Nixon since 1946, has served as press secretary or assistant press secretary in Nixon’s campaigns for vice president, president and governor of California.

Charged with arson COLUMBUS, Ohio (UPI)—An 18-year.old Ohio State University coed, charged with arson in connection with a dormitory fire in which two other coeds were killed, underwent tests Friday in a suburban Cleveland Psychiatric Hospital. Harriet Frances Leeb, of' South Euclid, Ohio, was released from Franklin County Jail Thursday, where she was lodged in lieu of $25,000 bond, and taken to Ingleside Hospital, a private maximum security mental hospital about 10 miles from her home. Miss Leeb was charged Wednesday with setting a fire May 22 on the 11th floor of the 24-story Lincoln Tower dormitory which claimed the lives of Pamela Sue Patterson, 18, Ludlow Falls, Ohio, and Rhetta Foster, 22, Colorado Springs, Colo. Fourteen other girls suffered smoke inhalation from the blaze. Miss Patterson died shortly after the fire and Miss Foster died in University Hospital a week later. Miss Leeb, according to South Euclid police records, was charged in March, 1963, with turning in two false fire alarms from Brush High School in the Cleveland suburb of Lyndhurst. Police said she was released to her parents with the understanding she would continue to receive aid from a psychiatrist she had been seeing.
By Dick West WASHINGTON UPI - It does appear that America has gone image crazy. The entire country apparently is suffering from an outbreak of morbid selfconsciousness. Within the past month I have encountered campaigns to improve the images of salesmen, bureaucrats and hominy grits. And now I not a campaign is under way to improve the image of tourists. Tourists? Good grief. Isn’t there anyone left who simply goes about his business without particularly giving a hoot whether Pleads case BOSTON (UPI)-The Rev. William Sloan Coffin Jr., chaplain at Yale University, testified Friday he tried to “force” the government to prosecute him for counseling young men to evade the draft because he wanted to test the legality of the Vietnam War. The Rev. Coffin, 43, is one of four men on trial in U.S. District Court with Dr. Benjamin Spock on charges of counseling young men to avoid the draft. The presiding judge ruled before the trial opened May 20 that the legality of the Vietnam War was an “irrelevant issue.” The chaplain testified he “never advocated the burning of draft cards” and “never counseled anyone to refuse service in the armed forces.” The Rev. Coffin, taking the stand for the second consecutive day as the first defense witness, also said, “I have never conspired with anyone to violate any laws.” Under examination by his attorney, James D. St. Clair, the bespectacled chaplain said he took part with three of the other defendants in presenting 992 draft cards to the Justice Department last Oct. 20 to “try to force the government to prosecute us for counseling, aiding and abetting young men to avoid the draft and to have a court case where the question of whether the war was legal or illegal could be pofed.”

everyone else approves? Upgrading the tourist image is the heart’s desire of Stephen Streeter, president of the American Tourist Association, who has proposed the information of an international tourist corps. Change Tactics As I get it, the ITC would be sort of drip-dry Peace Corps, the idea being that when you visit a foreign country you make an effort to help the natives, rather than offend them, as is now the custom. “Once tourists are made aware of what is expected of them it is reasonable to assume that their image will improve,” Streeter said in an interview with the National Geographic News Service. Streeter is undoubtedly right in implying that nobody loves a tourist. But boorishness is virtually a tourist’s only defense, especially in another country. As a rule, he can’t speak the language and is unfamiliar with the currency and price ranges. Which leaves him to the mercy of taxi drivers, waiters, innkeepers and other benevolent types. Means of Survival About the only way a tourist can survive under such conditions is to make himself as obnoxious as possible. Beyond that, most of us are required by our jobs to maintain a reasonable level of cordiality for 50 weeks a year. The whole point in taking a vacation is to go off some place where we can enjoy being surly for a couple of weeks. Indeed, I’m convinced the tourist business has become the major industry it is today mainly because it provides vacationers with an opportunity to practice bad manners. If I were in the travel business, I would think twice about encouraging a tourist to substitute good works for churlishness. It might improve his image, but it could be bad for business. Deprived of an outlet for incivility, next year he might stay home and sulk.
Economy grows in United States An eventful spring In which business has been expanding at record-breaking rate will likely help produce a 5 per cent growth in the dollar measure of the United States economy in the first six month of 1968. This forecast comes from the Loan Association in its June quarterly newsletter, Business and Real Estate Trends. “A large portion of this increase,” says the newsletter, “perhaps as much as 40 per cent, represents price inflation. “Real output appears to be growing at a rate close to 6 per cent per year, a rate which most economists and businessmen would consider to be unsustainable.” Gross national product advances from an annual rate of $807 billion in the fourth quart, er of 1967 to $827 billion in the first 1968 quarter. Dr. Robert C. Turner of Indiana University, a member of the Council of Economic Advisers in the Truman administration, expects gross national product to reach an $850 billion rate In this second quarter, with a more modest expansion of $12 billion per quarter the rest of the year and help the increase the result of higher prices. Meanwhile, Congress has been under renewed pressures to increase taxes and the President to cut nondefense spending. Turner’s projections assume no final settlement in Vietnam. In regard to personal savings, however, the newsletter notes that this economic yardstick item dropped from 7.1 per cent of disposable Income last year to 6.8 per cent in the first 1968 quarter. “A n y continued upsurge in spending, and downtrend in saving,” the publication says, “would add greatly to current Inflationary pressures. A primary argument for a tax increase has been to restain consumer spending, but it is easy to see that voluntary restraint, or the lack of it, also has a significant effect on spending... “The high rates of return that now can be earned on personal savings may be a factor in restraining consumer spending.” In a report on another facet of the economy Business and Real Estate Trends notes that housebuilding thus far in 1968 has continued the sharp upward trend which begain late in 1966.
PRIEST “UNION”—The Rev. Patrick J. O’Malley of Chicago ia president of the new N a t i o n a 1 Federation of Priests, elected at its Chicago convention. The organization claims to represent two thirds of America’s Roman Catholic priests. WASHINGTON (UPI) - Flood damage to Indiana farms could run as high as $15 million, the U.S, Army Corps of Engineers report. Sen. Vance Hartke, D-Ind., said he received a report from the corps that the greatest crop loss is expected along the Wabash River and its tributaries in Indiana and Illinois. An estlmated half million acres was expected to be flooded or partially inundated by the time the rivers crested. “Their estimates come even before flood crests in the Lower Wabash Basin are realized,” Hartke said. “This indicated the seriousness of the situation . . . newly seeded corn and soybean plantings are being swept away.” He was optimistic that damages would be slight above Lafayette because of protection from the recently completed Mississinewa and Salamonie Reservoirs. Three older reser. volrs— Monroe, Mansfield and Cagles Mill—also help in impounding flood waters, Hartke said. Areas of anticipated crop damage are on the main channel of the Wabash from Lafayette, Attica and downstream, Including the lower two-thirds of the Wabash, the lower White River and the east fork of the White, with extensive crop loss expected along the Patoka. Flooding also was feared along the Eel River and Big Walnut Creek. | i;>. -

DEAR FOLKS: This hint will help clear up a lot of problems because It’s written for those of you who live in a water-problem area— hard water, minerals and iron rust—and don’t have a water
fUter.
If you have a portable swimming pool and every time you fUl it up the water looks awful, you might try this method. Natch, you have to fill it up with the garden hose. So go get an old, white bath towel and put it on the end of your garden hose. You can fold it over about four to six times and wire or tie it on. Or if you have some heavy rubber bands, use them. I did and found ’em great. Now . . . lay your hose in the pool and turn on the water. After it has run slowly for about 30 minutes, go back and turn it off and remove that towel. Looky, looky what’s
on it!
When we tried this, we found brown stains, mud and rust stains all embedded in the terry towel. When you look at the water, you’ll be surprised how clean it is, too. Most amazing thing I ever did. Be sure to change the soiled towel every 30 minutes or so. Sure is easier on bathing
suits.
This also can be done on some washing machines that are filled with a hose. Keep some old, white bath towels or anything made out of terry cloth handy. Anytime you want to strain the water, try this idea. After all, it doesn’t cost you anything, does it? You can also use this idea when filling a bathtub. Either put a wash rag over the faucet where the water comes In the bathtub or if you forget, just take a white bath towel and swish it through the water. Watch that towel come out looking real rusty colored and that water clear up! It works. I guess rust just happens to float and sticks to the
towel.
Always, Heloise * * * DEAR HELOISE; Knowing fruit salad won’t keep well until the next day, here’s what I do when I have some leftover. Before clearing the dishes. I make up some gelatin dessert. By the time I’ve finished
doing the dishes it is cool. I then drain off any juice in the salad and add the fruit to the gelatin. Now I have a delicious dessert or salad for the next day and haven’t wasted anything Belle Hewitt . * * * DEAR HELOISE: Now that the warmer weather is here and little girls (big ones, too) are wearing the pretty white and pastel colored patent leather shoes, here’s a little tip. Those black marks and dirty lines can be removed with a pencil eraser. I find it works on the marks that even soap won’t take off. Daily Reader * * * LETTER OF LAUGHTER DEAR HELOISE: When washing windows, don’t do them all by yourself! Let your husband do every other one. In that way you will give each other a ••PANE.'* Mrs. Wm. Sloss * * * DEAR HELOISE: When preparing sandwiches for a picnic, wrap them in wax paper. Then pack them in a cracker box. (The large size that holds four packets.) You'll find the sandwiches fit perfectly and are easily carried. Stay nice and fresh, too. Marilyn * * * DEAR HELOISE: When putting a w a y your children’s metal lunch boxes after the school year, first give them a good scrubbing. Then completely dry the hinges and metal fasteners with the blower end of your tank vacuum cleaner or your hair dryer. It dries out all the excess w r ater so they don’t rust. This prolongs the life of the lunch box and they are ready for next school year. Sue Bachman * * * A drop of machine oil on those hinges helps, too. Heloise * * * DEAR HELOISE: To be sure I have rinsed away all the grit when washing fresh greens, I rub the palm of my hand across the bottom of the pan. When I can feel no more grit, I know my greens are clean. It’s a sure way to tell . . . Selma Maxwell
