This weekend will see the game with most interest for Hoosiers, the traditional clash with the Boilermakers of Purdue. It has been a number of years since Indiana has bested its intra-* state rival from Lafayette. —o——o One of the best-liked features of the Decatur Daily Democrat is the school reporter’s column, established several years ago by Marlene Laurent Morin, and continued by society editors on a weekly basis, with school reporters in each of the local schools. Started in Decatur, it soon included Adams Central. Pleasant Mills and Recently Wren, 0., and Willshire, 0.. have , been added. Within a week or two it is hoped that Monroeville high school will be added to the group. . o—o Corn growers are expected to vote out controls in the Nov. 25 j election, according to one source of information. This source expects an acreage increase of 4 million acres in corn, a decrease of ten per cent in the price of corn, and other feed grains to follow corn down in price. Price supports in 1958 were $1.36 a bu- | shel, and will drop to $1.12 a bu- | shel next year if controls are votJed out. If controls are maintained the price would be fixed at 75% of parity, or $1.29 a bushel, i o o . The General Assembly will : have the votes to override a veto • by Gov. Handley on repeal of the

controversial right-to-work measure, according to The Leader, official publication of the Indiana state building and construction trades council. Os the 46 candidates up for election this time who voted for the “wreck” law, 32 were defeated. The Republican state platform praised the law, and went down in defeat with all state GOP candidates. According to The Leader, 28 members of the senate can be expected to vote for repeal; only 26 are needed to override a veto. The house has plenty of votes to spare. o o At the present time there are about 14 empty stores in downtown Decatur, not counting upstairs space, once an office premium. What can be done about this? Business must be improved for Decatur merchants. There are several possible remedies, all requiring cooperation from the city merchants. A combination would probably give the best results. Since parking is the big problem, why not issue meter slugs based on the amount of purchases for those who wish to drive, and, during off-hours for the taxi company and stores, provide taxi tickets for customers who wish to come uptown, but don’t like to park? o o The strutting turkey on today's large farms wouldn’t even recognize the gobbler roasted by the Pilgrims on their first Thanksgiving. The Pilgrim’s bird was a skinny, skraggly, long - legged runner from the woods, who toughened up the meat on his bones by scooting around at a rapid clip, to the joy of hunters. By comparison the modern turkey, center of a S3OO million business annually, is a frail bird with a miserable disposition, overstuffed, full-breasted, with a larger body and short, fat, meaty legs. This coddled and coaxed bird walks slowly around the enclosure, which makes for better meat and less sport.

(UPI) — Mrs. Harry Fields, 42, Francesville, was killed and her two married daughters, both expectant mothers, were injured in a Pulaski County traffic crash Tuesday afternoon. Mrs. Fields’ daughters, Mrs. Geneva Cotner, 22, and Mrs. Barbara Haring, 17, were in White County Memorial Hospital at Monticello today in fair condition. PASS ORDINANCE (Continued from page on.) would be necessary at that crossing, would take two or three months of engineer’s planning, that the order cannot be placed for the specially made signals until the engineer’s plans are completed, that they take four to six months to manufacture, and another two or three months to install. The city councilmen then asked a few questions. Lawrence Kohne stated that he felt the crossing should be guarded by a railroad man. who knows the railroad, and is familiar with trains. The railroad official stated that the police would have more authority at the crossing, and that a locally employed man, in uniform, employed by the city police department, would be better for the job. The district engineer, who has the railroad watchmen under his supervision, stated that the watchman usually just looks and listens for the train, 1 anyway, and doesn't have to be a railroad man. Kohne then moved that the bill, which requires flasher signals within 90 days of the final passage of the ordinance and advertisement for two consecutive weeks, and a watchman from 7 a. m. to 3 p. m. shall be maintained by the railroad immediately after the ordinance takes effect, with a $lO-SSO a day fine for violation. The bill was read to the council, and then passed unanimously, each member recording in favor of the ordinance. The railroad men then asked if the regional manager could meet with the city council, city attorney, and mayor, and arrangements were made for a meeting at 7 p. ,m. next Tuesday.
