in the country looking somewhere other than the moon during the eclipse.” Most popular locally. Brooks said, are the planets. "OUR TELESCOPE REALLY is good for looking at the planets,” he said. “I could sit and look at Saturn for hours. I’ve actually had people who wonder if we’ve put a slide in because it’s so perfectly crisp and looks so still just hanging there. ‘‘Jupiter is pretty, but those rings on Saturn have always just set it apart. It’s nice to look at, but unfortunately, if you want to look at it now, Saturn rises at 4:30 in the morning. ” Looking through his telescope won’t show Brooks the future, but he is looking forward to a centennial celebration for McKim, which was completed in 1884 and became operational in 1885. He’d like to see the building -- which has been placed on the National Register of Historic Places (thanks to the undying efforts of Charlotte Dudley. Brooks adds) -- undergo a restoration project. “The building actually, underneath that white stucco, is identical in structure to East College,” Brooks revealed. “It has the same red brick and sandstone accent, although evidently it was not as good a brick because they always had moisture problems and stuccoed it over about 70 years ago to cut down on the seepage. “I DON’T THINK WE’D ever benefit cost-wise,” he admitted, “from taking the stucco off the outside, but I would like to get the inside fixed up. It has the same interior with the oak and all that East College has. And it could be fixed up really nice for just a drop in the bucket. Don’t get Brooks wrong, however. He loves his avocation. After all, he’s a trained atomic physicist, not an astronomer.

An early Tuesday evening accident occurred on West Walnut Street, just west of the Clyde Faatz residence. Involved in the 6 p.m. accident was a 1978 Chevy truck driven by Arthur M. Rodgers, 68, 36 Beveridge St., Greencastle. Rodgers told deputy Jim Hendrich that a deer jumped in front of the vehicle prompting the truck to skid in an attempt to avoid the collision. The vehicle, however, was unable to stop in time, police said. East Washington at Franklin St. was the scene of a late Monday afternoon accident. Involved in the 5:48 p.m. accident was a 1977 Chevrolet driven by Patsy A. King, 22. Route 2, Box 127, Coatesville, and a 1978 Chevrolet driven by Carolyn A. Griswold, 43, Box 227, Stilesville. According to deputy Chuck Evens’ accident report, the Griswold vehicle was moved off the roadway into McDonald’s parking lot upon the officers’ arrival. A witness told Evens that he was in the westbound lane of Washington Street, stopped for a red light when he noticed the King vehicle approaching from the rear. The witness told police he thought the King vehicle was going to collide with his car but the vehicle swerved around him into the intersection. It was struck by the Griswold vehicle which was eastbound on Franklin Street approaching the eastbound lane of Washington Street, police said. King stated she was approaching the intersection when she noticed the vehicle ahead and the red light. At that time, the driver said she applied her brakes which failed after she repeatedly pumped them. King also stated she swerved to miss the vehicle ahead, but collided with the Griswold vehicle in the intersection. Putnam Circuit Court Paul and Loretta Utley vs. Linda K.

Kidnap suspects arrested by FBI COVINGTON, Ind. CAP) Two men are accused of kidnapping a 4-vear-old Danville, 111. girl, who was the stepdaughter of one of the men, the FBI says. Agents said Russell Edwin Cline, 31, of Danville, 111., and Donnie Ray Allen, 35, of Covington, were arrested by agents at a home in Hendricks County Wednesday. They are charged with kidnapping, FBI agent William J. Amos of the bureau’s Indianapolis office said. Amos said Katie Machelle Vest, who was held 12 hours, was not injured. Fountain County Deputy Sheriff Gary Rice said the men surrendered in Brownsburgaround6:4s p.m. Amos said the arrests resulted from a joint investigation by FBI and local authorities in both Illinois and Indiana. Cline and Allen were taken to the Marion County Jail in Indianapolis, the FBI said. They will go before a federal magistrate today for a preliminary hearing, authorities said. According to Danville police, Cline and Allen entered the mobile home of Cline's estranged wife. Sherry, and took the child at gunpoint at 6 a.m. Wednesday They threatened to kill the girl if police pursued them. Danville Police Lt. Edwin McGee said. Mrs. Cline was struck several times, but did not require medical treatment, McGee said. He said Mrs. Cline thought the kidnapping was related to her pending divorce from Cline. Covington police were notified immediately of the kidnapping and found a vehicle linked to the kidnapping and registered in Cline’s name in front of Allen’s apartment in Covington. After obtaining a search warrant, police broke in the apartment door but found no one. The search then was expanded to include the Crawfordsville and Danville, 111., areas, police said. The FBI entered the case because the girl was believed transported across state lines. The Clines ware married in February 1981 in Montgomery County, according to records in Montgomery Circuit Court in Crawfordsville.

And if he didn’t long for the wild, blue yonder, he'd probably depart the office in the afternoon and leave physics behind until 10 the next morning like everyone else. But the romance of the heavens touched more than Brooks' finger as a Missouri youngster. “AS A LITTLE BOY, I can remember going out in the backyard and watching Echo and Explorer (satellites) and things like that go overhead. And my folks bought me a little 2 1 --inch telescope way back when I was in grade school.” Brooks credits Allen, the DPU alumnus, with helping spur local interest in the heavens via his November shuttle flight. But would the professor trade places with the astronaut? “I would, but my wife probably wouldn’t want me to,” the recent new father laughed. “The wildest dream I have from that standpoint is that seven years, or maybe eight years down the road, I would be up for sabbatical time. It would be a fun sabbatical year to spend six or eight months getting intensive training for a flight and then going up and flying just before the end of your year. “OH, YEAH," HE LAUGHED again, “I’d trade places. I’ve always kind of had that in the back of my mind. I’ve never done anything crazy like that, I mean, I don’t fly at all myself. I’d jump at it at the drop of a hat, but you know how it is with a family and all.” Coming back to earth, Brooks was more realistic in talking about his future. “It (a space flight) probably won’t happen, and that’s just kind of the breaks. I’ll just stay down here, I guess, and wait to take a picture the next time they fly up over our parts.”

Electricity related to economy By DAVID BARR Banner-Graphic Civic Editor Economic recovery for Indiana depends in large part on available electricity to meet the increasing demand, Darrell Menscer, president of Public Service Indiana, told members of Greencastle’s Rotary Club in the DePauw Union. Noting that the trend in industry is more electricity per worker, Menscer predicted that by the year 2,000, utilities would need to meet a demand of 200 per cent more than in 1980. IN RESPONSE to a question concerning need for more generating power when there is currently a 38 per cent surplus, the speaker pointed out that the life expectancy of present plants is 30 years and that old plants, like old cars, become less reliable as a source of power and will become non-operative. The reserve that counts is the reserve that will be there when it is needed, Menscer continued, noting that utilities have been given the responsibility of preparing to meet future needs. Interest rates and inflation have made it more difficult for utilities to finance new construction, the speaker said. Construction loan interest continues to pile up. CURRENTLY IN Indiana, revenue to utilities begins when construction is completed. Cost to the consumer could be less if utilities were permitted to earn revenue to meet continuing interest costs as construction progresses, the speaker said. Utilities would have to borrow less during construction periods. Meeting set for Tuesday The Happier Homes Extension Club will meet at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 11 at the home of Mrs. Charles McCullough.
