Watch for Chiselers Three men have just been ushered out of Kendallville for trying the old “inspection” routine for roofs, furnaces, or foundations. If men appear at your door, say they want to make an “inspection” and end up by telling you work has to be done, or that they have done work, tell them you have to withdraw money from the bank to pay them, and while you are gone, call the police lyTuesday the chief of police of Kendallville ordered three men from the city after being notified by alert bank personnel that they were attempting to bilk a senior citizen of S2OO. The men, who gave their names as Elmer Fields, Gerald Norris, and Ronald Jarvis, of Terre Haute, drove a white 1957 station wagon with license 382038, according to the Kendallville story. Last year the three obtained S4OO from the same lady they attempted to bilk this year. After an “inspection,” they told her that she needed some repairs that would not cost “in excess of $3”. Then, after two hours work, they told her the bill would be $400! She told them that she only had $35, so they reduced the bill to S2OO, and she went to the bank to withdraw it. Fortunately, a local banking official called the police. Several reports in Decatur of similar stunts, from barn painting with watered paint, to furnace inspections, have been pulled recently. A few years agll'a TV antenna outfit tried a similar stunt. A year ago an Anderson group, posing as “local”, IWcnt up and down the street getting jobs, and nearly fooled the editor, who checked before they started work, and found out that they were fly-by-nighters, not bone fide local workmen. So don’t be ashamed to check up on people who come to your door — ask t h e m for credentials, telephone number, authority, etc., and don’t let them in or sign a contract until you know they can provide needed services.

Junior Class Gives Plays On April 19 The junior class of Decatur high school will present two plays Friday, April 19, in the school auditorium. Hie two plays chosen by the class are “Shock of His Lase,” and “Great Smokies,’' both of which are one-act plays. The first play will begin at 8 p. m. “Shock of His Life,” is a farce by Donald Payton concerning the Maxwell family. Wilbur, a 13-year-old, jots down telephone messages for the family. One note from the butcher reads “heart about gone,’' one from the doctor says “will stop at 7:30,” and a third message refers to his sister's “coffin.” Mr. Maxwell’s jumping to the obvious conclusion, creates a laugh-filled and entertaining play. Hillbilly Comedy “Great Smokies’’ is a one-act hillbilly comedy by Leßoma Rose Greth, about a widower, Percival, and a widow, Daisy, who wants to get “hitched.” Both try to hide the ages of their teen-age children. When Daisy and her two children come to call qp Percival and his children, all the children are dressed to look like little boys and girls. The situations and problems arising between the two families are quite hilarious. Tickets On Sale Tickets are now on sale for the two plays, and may be purchased from any member of the junior class or at Holthouse-on-the-High-way. The plays are directed by Mrs.. Rebecca Worthman and John Sutler, junior class sponsors. Cast members in "Shock of His Life,” are: John Custer as Wilbur Maxwell; Karen Daniels as Mrs. Maxwell; Kathy Hill as Betty Lou Maxwell; Gary Schultz as Mr. Maxwell; Alan Ka.lver as Hercules Nelson; and Peggy Sheets as Connie Maxwell. “Great Smokies” cast members are: Sally Schnepf as Ducky Belle; Betsy Schnepf as Emmy Sue; Lynn Sheets as Pa; Richard Doty as Hiriam; Rita Spence as Lizzie; Manual Ybarra as Zeke; Carolyn Cook as Daisy Snodgrass; Dean Lehman as Willie Snodgrass; Ann Allwein as Dottie Lou Snodgrass.
