For Schricker’s Friends The friends of former governor Henry F. Schricker, the famous white-hat governor-economizer, will be very happy to know that he has recovered well enough from his stroke of two years ago to speak publicly again. Gov. Schricker appeared before 1,000 guests at a Lemon-for-Mayor rally in Bloomington, nd stole the show from New Jersey governor Robert Meyner, a presidential or vice-presidential possibility. The famous former governor, only man to serve two terms since the constitution was changed in 1851, called upon Hoosiers to unite and elect Democratic mayors and councilmen all over the state. Pointing to their past records, and their future hopes, the old warrior called for election of Democrats who stand for economy in government, as he did, and for stern, uncompromising honesty in office. He warned the Audience not to be misled by halftruths and innuendoes by the “has-been, high-tax, Republicans of the Governor Handley vintage.” • • * * School Meetings Persons interested in finding out something about the school reorganization law, which will affect every school and every taxpayer in the state, should definitely attend tonight’s meeting at the Northwest school. Two meetings are being held this evening; one’here, and one at Adams Central. Because of this, Judge Myles F. Parrish will split his time, attending the Central meeting first, and in Decatur later. County superintendent Gail Grabill and city superintendent W. Guy Brown will co-preside over the meeting, and explain the law. Every school district in the county is vitally interested, and attempting to place its strongest men on the committee. The effects of the reorganization board’s accomplishments will be felt for years to come. While the moves made by the board may be very unpopular initially, there is no doubt that if the members act wisely they will be vindicated by history for their actions. However, many who do not want to wait that long have declined to serve on the board; others have been less than enthusiastic about appointment. A lot of hard work and ver# little thanks, directly, can be expected. But no one questions the need. The”cost of schools today is our greatest single cost of local government. The school tax rate is the highest of all. If better educational opportunities can be secured, and costs of operation decreased, then consolidation must be seriously considered. The entire state is eagerly awaiting the minimum recommendations of the state board; as much as they recommend must be enacted for approval; otherwise, the state will step in and act for the county. This is certainly not desired here, and every member will work to form an acceptable plan. The plan must then be accepted by the voters; if this is not done, then the state may still step in.

Opportunity School Has First Meeting The first meeting of the school year was held at Vera Cruz opportunity school recently. Approximately 35 members were present and three new members were introduced. There are 39 students enrolled at the school this year. The teachers were introduced and each gave a short report on the school they had attended during the summer. Mrs. Hugh Cobb attended a school in Terre Haute, and Mrs. Viva Inskeep attended classes at the Fort Wayne State school. Mrs. Frieda Lyby is replacing Mrs. Alfred Girod this year.- Each teacher stressed the need of additional room, and need of another teacher. Mrs. Lyby visited at the State School and said the facilities and amount of room were ideal and there were approximately eight pupils to a teacher. The flowers that were on display, were grown from the seeds donated by the Bluffton Garden club. Each child was presented with a gift. Slides of the school, teachers, and pupils are available to any group or organization desiring to become more acquainted with this type of school. Screen and projector is included free of charge and can be obtained through L. C. Lieurance, superintendent of Wells county schools.

Deadline Extended To September 30 Farmers who are interested in the conservation reserve of the soil bank for 1960 now have additional time to take the first step in applying for the program, chairman James Garboden of the Adams county ASC committee announced today. He said the deadline to request a basic annual rate per acre has been extended from September 10 to September 30. The principal reason for the extension, Garboden said, is to allow the department of agriculture .time for a re-study of the method being used in establishing the rental value of land offered for the program. Also, there is new legislation pending on this subject. The agricultural appropriations act for 1960 contains the following provision: “In establishing annual rental rates for new contracts, no such rental rate shall be established in excess of the local fair rental value of the acreage offered, such fair rental value to be based upon the average annual crop production harvested from such acreage during the past five crop years.” Many problems have been encountered in applying this provision, particularly in areas where drought and other natural disasters have unusually affected chop yields during one or more of the past five years. Farmers who have already filed applications for basic rates need take no further action at this time, Garboden said. Their applications will be held and will be acted upon after new instructions are received. Applications for contract, the second step in the 1960 conservation reserve procedure, will not be accepted until further notice.
Observes Birthday Four Months Late Roger Miller, son of Mr. and Mrs. Maurice Miller of near Decatur, was finally able to celebrate his 17th birthday Sunday after a postponement of more than four and one half months. Miller was critically injured in an automobile accident April 10. Since that time, he has been in Parkview memorial hospital suffering from paralysis from the waist down. Roger and his cousin, Miss Janet Habegger, have birthdays just a day apart and their birthday party was to have been held May* 3. Since he is now able to be out of the hospital for short periods of, time, Roger and his family gathered at the Ralph Habegger home yesterday for the affair. Those attending included Roger’s mother and father, his brother, Wayne, and sister, Nancy, Mr. and Mrs. Habegger, and Joetta. During the evening a picnic supper was held and another aunt and uncle of Roger’s, Mr. and Mrs. Doyt Miller and daughters Eleanor and Janet, were present. COURT NEWS Divorce Cases In the Robert D.
