Sunny Weather Draws Crowd To State Fair J Corn King Named 4-H Dairy Champ Draw Big Crowd INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—Wayne Van Cleave, R.R. 2, Crawfordsville, was crowned state “corn king" at the Indiana State Fair today as thousands of Hoosiers pushed through the gates amid sunny and pleasant weather. The corn growing championship was won on a 10-ear sample declared by judges to be the best shbwn in the fair's big grain exposition. The crowd included teachers, baton twirlers and foreign visitors. Fair officials said 28,837 paid admissions Thursday were 4,000 above those of the second day of last year’s fair. Paid attendance the opening day was 16,792. The Thursday attendance was the biggest, second-dy paid crowd in five years. The reserve grand champion barrow. shown by 11-year-old Mike Orr, Tipton, was not sold. As for the grand champion beef steer sale earlier in the afternoon, Governor Handley and Lt. Gov. Crawford Parker were on hand to speak. But Wood's barrow failed to respond to the limelight as did red-haired Dale Darlage’s champion steer and tried to dodge photographers. The steer brought a contemporary record low price of $2 a pound. Max Jackson, Galveston, won the grand championship swine showmanship title. Gail Spegal, Fairland, won the dual purpose heifer showmanship title. Karen Gunning of Mulberry was crpwned cherry pie baking queen with Paula Opera of South Bend as runner-up. and Mrs. Walter Reed of Decatui' County grabbed the cake T baking sweepstakes for the 9th time in 10 years with a chocolate-flavored morsel which outdistanced about 500 other entries. Teachers Are Honored In accord with today’s designation as '•Teachers’ Day” at the fair, 92 representative Indiana schoolmarms and masters were to be honored this afternoon and tonight. These educators were selected by drawing from among several hundred nominated by county and city school superintendents. From among these representative teachers, one from each coupty, will be chosen the “Indiana Teacher of 1958" also by a drawing to be conducted by Bob
Hope, actor and comedian who headlines the Coliseum entertainment tonight and Saturday. The practice began last year of giving each of the teachers a prize-winning apple will be continued this time at a reception at which Lt. Gov. Crawford Parker will welcome them. In addition, the teacher whose name Hope pulls from the box will get a Christmas vacation for two in Florida. The teachers, together with a group of foreign students from 26 nations who are attempting to get a first-hand look at how this nation lives, will hit the fair at the same time and both groups will join newspaper, radio and television personnel at the annual press barbecue tonight. Attendance at the barbecue, sponsored annually by Purdue University, Indiana Poultry Assn, and the Indiana State Fair, will be swelled to an estimated 700 by the addition. The foreign students have been visiting Indiana University and will be leaving the state before the designated “International Day” Sept. 3. Countries Represented They represent Brazil, Cambodia. Central Africa Federation, Ceylon, El Salvador, Finland, Greece, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Iran. Italy,' Japan, Morocco, Nicaragua, Pakistan, Spain, Tunisia, _ Turkey, Uganda.

An elght-month series of at least 27 Northern Indiana breakins and robberies were cleared up with the arrest of five members of a gang. Held on a preliminary charge of loitering were Richard Gregg, 21, Jerry Schlink, 21, Clifford Gaze, 20, Harry Kintz, 20, and Robert Bloom, 18, all of Fort Wayne. Bond was set at $5,000 each. Gregg and Gaze earlier admitted 19 burglaries, including six in the South Bend-Mishawaka area, but Kintz later confessed to eight additional robberies in Allen County.

The FBI was called into the case after three of the gang members told of stealing license plates from a Mishawaka used car dealer and using the plates to transport stolen cars from Niles, Mich., to Mishawaka. The three, Gregg, Bloom and Schlink, said they parked the cars on a Mishawaka street where other members of the gang could pick them up. Authorities also indicated that at least two more persons were involved in the ring. Space Rates EAST LANSING, Mich. — (UPD — Charles E.
