Corncob Pipes To Smoke Ouf Fest Souvenir Hunters

Those wisps of smoke you see curling over Putnam County next week could be coming from the hundreds of anniversary souvenir corncob pipes scheduled to go on sale in Greencastle Monday. James Grimes, manager of Herriott’s, announces that these genuine corncob nioes will be available at most Greencastle stores. The price is 75 cents per pipe and the number is limited, according to Grimes. “People who don’t smoke pipes or who don’t smoke at all will want to buy these pipes as souvenirs,” Grimes said. “The stems will be imprinted with the name of the corn festival and the date. They will be something you will want to keep to

remember the occasion.’’ Putnam County's first annual Corn Festival is schedule to begin with a country-western show next Wednesday night in the Junior High gym and to continue through the three-day weekend with many activities of interest planned. “If it has anything to do with corn, we will have it,” said a spokesman for the Merchants committee of the Chamber of Commerce. “Other communities have annual festival occasions based on something of interest in their areas. Rockville, for example, goes all out for covered bridges. Our theme is to be corn and in the coming years, we expect our celebration to get bigger and bigger.

Tipton Asks 'Where Will It All End’On Announcement Of Presidential Pardon

State Senator Elden Tipton's reaction to President Ford's latest announcement regarding Presidential pardons was to ask, “Where will it all end if we abandon the judical system in favor of blanket pardon?” “We have just been celebrating the return of the checks and balances system

after having gone through six years of a Presidency that had usurped important elements of our democracy,” Tipton said, speaking Thursday night at the Western Indiana Fox Hunters, meeting at Brazil. Tipton, the Democratic candidate for Seventh district Congressman continued, “Only

the judiciary had the nerve to challenge the near absolute power which the former President had taken for himself in certain matteis. But now the functions of that branch are being challenged.” “I believe,” said Tipton, “that President Ford should be more concerned about the dangerous precedence he is setting, especially since he was not elected as either Vicpresident or President but chosen by the former President.” “I can imagine some future President making his resignation in favor of his VicePresident conditional upon receiving a pardon for any crime he or his subordinates may have committed while in office,” Tipton continued “And what does Congressman John Myers have

to say about all these important developments?” Tipton asked. “It seems he has gone into hiding again as he did during the week before the Please ium to page 2, col. 3 Buis On Local TV Tom Buis, Democratic candidate for State Representative, will be appearing on WRTV, Channel 6, with Reid Duffey, prominent news-caster.

Included among these programs are recognition of academic and athletic achievement in the high school. “When you participate in Rose Day, you invest in these fine young people,” Newnum said.
