Volz Continued from page 1 on a solo career has been compared to David Lee Roth leaving Van Halen or Peter Cetera leaving Chicago. In 1971 Volz formed “e” band in Indianapolis, playing in high schools, colleges, and parks throughout the Midwest. The “e” band recorded the rock opera “Because I Am” for Clear Light Productions. IN 1971 VOLZ WAS invited to sing with REO Speedwagon, just six weeks before another invitation came from Petra to sing on their second album, “Come And Join Us.” Over the next eight years Volz recorded six albums and performed in more than 500 concerts with Petra. “The River Is Rising” marks Volz’s first solo album since leaving that group. He said, “It’s been a big step of faith for me to venture out on my own after being a group member all these years. But I’m excited and feel a certain expectation. This project has been the most fulfilling I’ve ever worked on. I’m excited about touring and recording my next album. It’s all been a blessing from God and I really appreciate God’s grace in my life.” TICKETS FOR VOLZ’S concert are $8 in advance, and $6 for groups of five or more. They are on sale in area Christian book stores, and will be available at the door the night of the show.

In addition, the board did not meet in October, but has scheduled a meeting for this Thursday instead.

ASK DR. STAMPER by J.L. Stamper, D.D.S.

BAD HABITS, BAD TEETH Tooth damage may result from occupational, eating and other habits. A carpenter who carries nails or a seamstress who puts pins or needles between teeth may develop grooves in teeth. Even clenching on a pipe stem may cause abnormal wear of teeth. Bad eating habits can also lead to tooth damage. For instance, acidic foods such as lemon, oranges, grapefruits, vinegar, soda and apples erode the hard enamel coating of your teeth. Chewable Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) tablets can, in the long-term, erode enamel as well. Brushing your teeth excessively or incorrectly may do more harm than good. Excessive brushing or horizontal brushing can erode the protective enamel covering. Your dentist wiW show you how to brush properly. If you have tooth damage of any kind, see your dentist. He or she will be able to discover the cause and may be able to repair the damage. Presented as a community service by Dr. J.L. Stamper, 1 E. Hanna St., Greencastle. Phone 653-9300.
