Bill has been playing the organ for silent movies at Clermont College, California, for the past 11 years and his playing has made a big hit with standing room only crowds. Kenny Kersey tells me that Bill would like to have a special organ in the DePauw Student Union Building for the reunion of his class. He will also be here for several days and would like to give a benefit performance at the organ and with silent movies for any local groups or organizations that might be interested. Anyone liking any further information can contact Kenny Kersey in regards to his offer. 000 I incorrectly stated a few days ago that William Zaring, former Greencastle resident, had been a patient in a Sarasota, Florida, hospital. Instead, he was in St. Anthony’s Hospital in St. Petersburgh, Florida. I am glad to say that he has returned to his home in Sarasota. 000 Possible improvement of the Civil Defense “Warning System” for Putnam County will be discussed at a meeting this coming Thursday at 7 p m. in the basement of the Greencastle Federal Savings & Loan Association building.

MOORE’S SHOES SINCE 1919 On The South Side Of The Square

Several residents of Clinton Township were in attendance at the county commissioners meeting yesterday morning to present a petition with approximately 200 signatures. Their spokesman, Willard Miller, explained their request that the 1.2 mile stretch of road near Clinton Falls be widened and blacktopped. It was noted that some parts of the road are only one lane wide while other parts are low with no ditches to keep the water off the road. The road also goes over a hill which is very slick in winter causing drivers to slide off the side of the road. The commissioners said it would not be possible to blacktop the road this year for two reasons. First, the road must settle for about a year after the widening and excavating is completed before blacktopping. And secondly, the money necessary for such a large-scale project is not available this year. They told the residents that work will be done to solve some of the other problems, however. Next, Glenn Flint, repre-

senting the Little Walnut Creek Conservancy District, explained that turnarounds will be provided at the deadend roads created by the closing of the two miles of the county road to allow for the construction of structure number four. Flint said the area will be under construction in one month. The district’s board of directors plans to let the bid for the work June 10. A representative from the Army Corps of Engineers was present to contract with the county for use of the county landfill for the remainder of the year. The commissioners agreed upon a charge of S45. Two plats which had been presented earlier to the Putnam County Plan Commission for application for subdivision were yesterday presented to the county commissioners for approval. Mr. Shinn’s plat, approved by the Plan Commission on April 8, allows him to subdivide his property on West Walnut Street Road in Madison Township, with certain recommended restrictions. Mr. Hedges’ plat allows

Greencastle. The Bible Club, which has a membership of 55, has Bryan Chadd as its president who commented. “We felt it would be a gesture of good will, and we decided the tornado relief fund was the best outlet for our money.”
