' ‘ School Book Prices Increase This Year Grade School Hikes Up Education Costs Indianapolis, Aug. 21.—(UP)—The price tag. on a grade-school education In Indiana. will be marked up an average 32.55 per pupil this fall, but parents of high school students won’t bear higher textbooks costs for another year. Reading, arithmetic, the\old ' standbys.| held die price line. But neW spelling, granimar, geogrgaphy and.; hedlth books adopted, for youngsters starting in September reflect the higher cost of living, j 5 g [ ’ U.S. history tteits for seventh and eighth gradert will cause the most financial pgin—to parents, no|t pupils—-and a sewly-introduced Indiana history course for the same grades will add about $1.34 which wasn’t on <the book list last fa|l. The price boosts range from 29 cents on lower grade spellers to $1,28 on the U.S. history text. It’s a case of the more advanced the student, the more the cost. Book prices to parents of second grade pupils jump an average 30 cents over last fail, and the boost becomes steeper—well past $2 — progressively through the grades. Morns and dads with offsprings in hlgh\ school - escape the price hikes this September, but they’ll suffer \an even higher next x They escape now because books adopted last Decaember and going into use this fall all are for grades two through eight. But in Sept., 1952, nooks for all grades and most of them more expensive high school texts •will go into use.

Deputy Sheriff Cards Recalled By Sheriff Here ■ \ ■ \ ‘4 \ '4 * Several pieces of paper today promised to create a considerable «tjr, and It was problematical as to what was causing most of the wind. \ The paper is the -several deputy sheriff cards which sheriff Hob Bthaluka picked up in Geneva and Wabash township, and the wind is bring generated mostly by Geneva justice of the peace Karl DaWald. Sheriff Shraluka withdrew the cards because he claimed DaWald serves not only as arresting officer In many of the cases but complaining witness and judge as well. The sheriff aaid he didn’t want hie department involved In anticipated unfortunate Incidents in which DaWald exerts his office as justice of the peace. \ The matter, which began modestly enough last week when sheriff Shruluka* recalled the cards, erupted when* De Wald made public portions of a letter had written the sheriff. DaWald called the sheriff’s action an "amazing demonstration" and said the sheriff came into Wabash township with “a contemptuous attitude toward a constitutional court.” Thd sheriff kept the master of recalling the deputy cards and the subsequent letter quiet until DaWald’s public blast. ... Sheriff Shraluka today said he had no further qomment on the question, that he < took the action “to protect the IsherifFa department.” One of those whose card was recalled included Geneva town marshal Preston Pyle. Pyle, however, still has police authority in the town. > - [-■' '■ ' ■ WwuraA Cera To produce 100 bushels of corn, the soil must deliver 1,008,000 pounds of water, ISO pounds of nitrogen, 21 pounds of phosphorus, T 2 pounds of potassium end 88 pounds of lime plus organic matter.
