Columbus Church Destroyed By Fire Tuesday Night

COLUMBUS Ind. (AP)—A Columbus church, valued at more than $260,000 when it was built five years ago, was destroyed by fire Tuesday night after lightning struck its

steeple.

A building contractor said the cost of replacing the structure would be more than three times

the original construction price. The lightning struck the East Columbus Church of Christ about 6:15 p.m. and within minutes, its highpeaked roof was in flames. About 50 firemen worked two hours before bringing the blaze under control. Four firemen were taken to

Bartholomew County Hospital here for treatment of minor burns and smoke inhalation. They were released later Tuesday night. Another half dozen firefighters were treated for smoke inhalation at the scene. Also destroyed in the fire was the church’s library with books dating back to 1850.

Lavish Gifts In Summit Exchange

WASHINGTON (AP) — The current summit talks have included an exchange of lavish gifts, with the White House explaining its gifts were donated by American firms. Soviet Communist leader Leonid I. Brezhnev brought with him an antique silver Russian samovar, a silver-gilt water pitcher and a dozen stemmed goblets on a large tray, and a large Bokhara design rug for President Nixon.

For Mrs. Nixon there was a Russian china tea service for 12, a coffee service for 12, a half-dozen blue and white enameled silver-gilt tea glass holders and cut glass tea glasses, a white wool crocheted shawl and a malachite and bronze jewel box. Nixon has given Brezhnev a $10,000 Lincoln Continental town car and a large supply of spare parts, which a spokes-

man said were provided by Ford Motor Co. for a “nominal fee.” The same was done by General Motors for the black Cadillac that Nixon gave Brezhnev last year, the spokesman said. The White House also disclosed that the $12,000 Petersen rifle given by Nixon to Brezhnev was donated by its maker, as was a $5,000 Cybis porcelain grouping.

By ANDY LANG AP Newsfeatures Q. — There is a small worn area in our kitchen linoleum. I would like to patch it, since the rest of the flooring is in good shape. I don’t have any extra matching linoleum, but can cut a piece from under the refrigerator without it being noticed. What is the best way to make the repair? A. — The one problem you may have is in finding a replacement patch that will enable the pattern to be matched so that it will not be conspicuous. So, before you cut out the patch, consider how to do it to get as good a match as possible. The patch should be a bit larger than the area to be replaced. Use a linoleum or other sharp knife and cautiously cut along a straightedge, preferably one of metal. Place the patch over the worn area, using masking tape to hold it in place. Now, again using a sharp knife and straightedge, cut through both thicknesses of linoleum at the same time. Work slowly and carefully. Take up both pieces and scrape off any old cement from the floor. Apply new adhesive to the underside of the patch and put the replacement into the opening. Place a few books or something similar on the patch for a few hours until the adhesive dries.

Q. — When the tank handle is turned in our bathroom, not enough water enters the toilet bowl to flush it properly. I took off the porcelain tank top and found that when the tank fills up, the water only goes up about halfway and then stops. Is there any way of determining how much water should go into the Link? A. — Generally, the incoming water shuts off when it is about one inch from the top of the overflow tube, the vertical hollow piece metal located slightly to the left of the center of the tank. If the water is not reaching the height, bend the horizontal float arm up a little so that the float ball is a couple of inches higher than it was. Use both hands to make the bend and work very carefully so that you do not throw the equipment out of line. Make whatever adjustment is necessary to bring the incoming water up to a point just short of the top of the overflow tube. If the water rises too high and begins to flow into the tube, it means you have bent the float arm a little too much.
