Girl Scout Day Camp Cancelled

For the first time in many years the annual Girl Scout Day Camp held during the summer at Fern Cliff will not take place this year, reported Neighborhood Chairman Mrs. James Cook. The chairman of Putnam County Ciirl Scout leaders stated that after several weeks of making contacts. “We have not been able to locate people

who are willing to assume leadership of the camp.” “It's a real shame,” Mrs. Cook continued, “because the day camp was not only something the girls enjoyed, but it served to introduce the younger girls to camping.” In past years the camp has been held five days per week from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. at Fern Cliff. Girl Scout

troops from Brownies through Juniors took part in the program. Mrs. Cook reported that tentative plans were being made by some individual Brownie leaders to take their second grade girls to Fern Cliff for a “Brownie Day” in May. She also mentioned the possibility of Junior troop leaders planning a similar oneday excursion.

No Word Yet On College Finances

As of this week, over 60 per cent of those seniors at Greencastle High School intending to go to college plan to attend Indiana schools. Several of them have applied for financial aid at their chosen institutions, and for some financial aid is necessary in order for them to pursue a college education. Vet many Indiana students hoping for federal financial aid to help with college expenses next fall may be disappointed as spring rolls into summer and there is no word from the lour Hoosier state universities on whether or not

they will offer this assistance. The problem stems from decisions on funding the federal programs having not been made in Washington. President Nixon wants some major changes in the funding picture. In the “tug of war” between the President and Congress, decisions are not being reached in time for universities to make their traditional announcements. Indiana University, Ball State, Purdue and Indiana State Universities are the four schools which have had more applicants from this year’s GHS senior class than any

Baptist Confab Planned Here

The White l ick Baptist Association will hold its Spring Conference this year at the First Baptist Church in Cireencastle. Included in the White lack group are churches in Putnam and surrounding counties. On Thursday April 12 will be the youth night of the conference with special music provided by youth from the participating churches. There is to be a missionary speaker on that youth night, it was announced yesterday. Each Church represented at the conference has been asked

to bring two trays or six dozen cookies for the social hour for the youth. Then on Friday April 13, the women will hold their sessions with women’s registration getting under way at 9 a.m. The program is slated for 9:30 which will include special music, a missionary speaker from Indiana and two state officers. Women from the churches are asked to bring a salad for the luncheon. The Greencastle Baptist Church, it was reported, will furnish the meat, salads, crackers and drinks for the event.

others in the state. Earlier this month the financial aid officers of these universities met together in Indianapolis and discussed the problem in fi-

nancial aid

“With the uncertainties in Washington, both about which programs will be funded and how much funding will be, we are simply unable even to guess what the picture will be next fall," stated Edson Sample, director of scholarships and financial aid at Indiana University. Donald Holec, Purdue’s financial aid director pointed out, “The situation presents a real hardship for students, many of whom w ill not know until later whether or not they can attend college in the fall.” Announcements of freshman financial aid recipients which are usually made in early April and upperclassmen receiving financial aid. usually made in early summer, will be delayed if Congress does not act soon, according to the director of student financial aid at ISU, Mark Williams. Nevertheless, Ball State’s financial aid director, Norman Beck, urged students not to over-react or panic, “There is no question that there will be federal aid available for many Hoosier students this fall; the problem is primarily what kind of aid w ill be funded." The newest federal aid program is the Basic Opportunity Grant. It would be open to students with financial need, inPlease Turn to Page 2

For whatsoever things were

“Between the dark and the daylight, when the night is beginning to lower, comes a pause in the day’s occupations, that is known as the C hildren’s Hour” . . . only this time the children's hour came between a midnight fraternity serenade and dawn at the Delta Gamma sorority house on South Locust Street. The ex-

terior decorators draped about 15 rolls of toilet paper on trees, bushes, the lawn, and the DG anchor before flittering into the night, probably with high-pitched giggles of delight. “The Devil made us do it,” was the reason scrawled in elementary chalk on the sidewalk. (Banner-Graphic Photo)
