HARRISBURG. Pa (AP) - My car used 18 gallons of gasoline on a round trip from Pennsylvania's capital to Disney World in Florida, a distance of 1.858 miles Of course. Die car rode a railroad train for 1,711 of those miles.

years, had another idea, at least for people without air-con-ditioned cars, with three kids in the back seat and a short vacation. Auto-Train boards its East Coast passengers at Lorton, Va., 15 miles south of Washington and just off 1-95, at 6 p.m. daily. They get off at Sanford, Fla., 37 miles north of Disney World at 9:30 a.m., the next day. And each day, one train leaves Florida for the trip north. In the Midwest, a train leaves Louisville, Ky., at 3:30 pm. and arrives in Sanford at 2:30 pjn. the next day, a 22hour trip between times zones. The same train leaves Sanford the following day for Louisville. There is only one train operating on the Louisvill e-Sanford run. The East Coast run started xi Dec. 6, 1971, and the Midwest run last May 24. Officials say success has been spelled out by profits, a long reservations list and the novelty of transporting a car. "The gas crisis increased interest in our service,’’ says Richard J. Church, director of public relations. The trains have carried 590,000 passengers and 204,000 cars so far. The firm’s last financial statement, issued April 30, shows that revenue for the previous 12 months was 821,600,000, up 52 per cent from the $14 million taken in during the first full year of operations. Earnings in the first year were 1804,000. That figure jumped to $1,568,000 in the second year. Stockholders found their investment earnings almost doubling too, from 56 cents per share to $1.05. Since the trains make no stops en route, except for servicing and crew changes, the costs are standard. On the Lorton-Sanford route, the base fare one way is $198 for an automobile and two occupants for the 856-mile ride. At Louisville, 988 miles from Sanford, the base fare is $225. Each additional passenger pays $25. And private sleeping compartments are extra, ranging from $45 for two people to $85 for five. Except for liquor, soft drinks and gifts from a small shop, there are no other costs. The base fare includes dinner and breakfast, plus lunch on the Louisville run. And your car, loaded into a closed carrier, is insured for damage. Passengers have their choice of riding on the first or second decks of glass-domed coaches. A typical train carries 160 automobiles and about 500 passengers at an average speed of 60 miles an hour. Top speed is 79 m.pJi. Auto-Train Corp. president Eugene Kerik Garfield, 38, an attorney, was an assistant to the secretary of transportation in Washington when he saw a research report in 1968 that concluded an auto-ferry concept would be profitable.

Congress, which had authorized the $imillion, three-year study in 1965, determined that the plan should be pursued by private industry. Garfield left the transportation department in 1969, got financial backing from private investors and formed the corporation. First, he signed agreements with the Seaboard Coast Line railroad and the Richmond, Fredericksburg and Potomac line to lease their tracks for 15 years with a renewal option for 15 more years. Then he bought passenger coaches from the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe, the Western Pacific, the Seaboard Coast Line and the Union Pacific. Next, he went to the Canadian National Railway for autocarriers and to General Electric Co. for new locomotives. Finally, he had terminai facilities built at Lorton and San-

ford.

Garfield’s corporation paid for its equipment through a public sale of stock. The offering of 700,000 shares at $10 each was sold out in one day on July 15, 1971, and Garfield had $7 million. Within 44 months, he and his associates put the private hailroad together. Election to be held Oct. 15 An election, in which Kenneth W. Harris, former Putnam County Extension Agent is a candidate for director on the Indiana State Fair board, will be held at the Montgomery County Fairgrounds Tuesday, Oct. 15. Harris came to Putnam county as Extension Agent on April 16, 1946 and continued at this post 20 years. Presently he is on the staff of the State Department of Natural Resources. If elected in Tuesday’s balloting, Harris will become the first person from the county to serve on the State Fair board. He resides on Greencastle R. R. 1, north of the city on State Road 43. 49 percent of goal reached At the October 1 Kickoff Breakfast signaling the start of the United Way campaign at the Greencastle IBM plant, Dr. Darrell T. Piersol, personnel director for the Information Records Division, ended his talk with last year's battle cry of the New York Mets: “You've gotta believe!” By Tuesday, October 8, the canvassing IBM Club committeemen reported pledges amounting to $3,650, or 49 percent of the plant goal. As of Friday, October 11, the amount stood at $4,758, or 64.3 percent of the goal.

Check It Out With our Halloween decorations, the colors inside the Library are as bright as those outdoors. Again this year, we invite young goblins to come trick-or-treating. We have wondered how many of the Cloverdale area residents know that there is a Library in their Commurlty Center. A portion of the books belong to the Center, and the rest come from the GPCL by way of the Bookmobile. The Community Center Library even has a staff member. Allen Gumey, a student at Cloverdale High School, is there after school and on Saturdays. He is a young man who does will in his own studies, and is willing to help boys and girls with their reading and math after school. He will also read stories to children. Within a few weeks, with the help of volunteers, we hope to have a weekly Story Hour for pre-schoolers at the Community Center. The Bookmobile spends two hours in the parking lot of the Center every other Thursday. It carries many interesting books for adults, as well as for children. Its next day there will be October from 9 to 11 am. Are you still aware of TWX? We’d like to remind you that we are able to secure books for you from all over the state through a teletype network. We have had very good results with this system, usually receiving the materia! within a week. The only cost to you is postage, which is low for books. Try it the next time we don't have the book or subject area you want. Currently, we have a display of beautiful sea shells, courtesy of Nell Smyres and Madeleine Wright. We are always eager to display the collections, hobbies, hand-work, and special interests of the people of Putnam County.

Opatija, the northern Adriatic resort, was the first Yugoslav tourist resort. The first foreign tourists, on an organized tour in 1884, came in addition to Opatija, to Dubrovnik, the South Adriatic walled city, aboard an Austrian ship carrying 153 tourists. Hotel Kvarner, opened in 1884, is the first hotel on the Yugoslav Adriatic, in Opatija. That year 1,412 tourists came, starting a permanently upward climb, except in times of war. In 1899, 14,865 tourists came to Opatija spending 333,000 nights there, in 1912 there were 54,696, and in 1913 as many as 865,001 tourists. In 1952, Yugoslavia began actively encouraging foreign tourists to visit the country. In 1972 there were 37.8 million nights spent by foreign tourists along the Adriatic coast, and 56.2 million in all of Yugoslavia. In 1973 there were 44.4 million nights spent on the Adriatic and 64.05 million in all of Yugoslavia.

In Newfoundland, any lazy good-for-nothing is called an “angishore” (hang-ashore) — a man too spineless to leave the land and dare the sea.

The police said they are seeking the wage hike in order to meet rising costs and to retain experienced policemen at the local department. In clarifying a statement made yesterday in a news release from, Police Chief John Pursell noted that the city will receive $15,000 from Putnam County for having the “eyedeck” in the city police department.

It was mentioned in the article that the device will cost the city $15,000. Pursell said the communications device will cost the city $897.25 and that a new “eyedeck” machine will bring the city $15,000 pad by the county for having the machine at the city police department.
