On Memorial Day, Sidney, Ohio, . Shelby county, started the dedication of their new all-weather strip ! by a fly-in breakfast flight which 1 we attended. Pilots from surround- ' ing states attended the affair. Antique aircraft were displayed, the Air Force had trucked in a : large display rocket with up to the latest data — the Ohio State police ! helicopter was at hand and they i gave the audience a demonstration , of highway patrolling by copter. Several homebuilt small craft flew in for public display. A Hughes 269A copter came in from Columbus, Ohio, and whs giving rides. Two Shelby county bands paraded . and presented the public with several musical selections before , the 1 o’clock dedication ceremony. ' The mayor, city council and the 1 county commissioners were the county * commissioners were the ; speakers for the dedication ceremony. As to who were behind the progressive enterprise, they were the mayor, city council, county commissioners, dedicated business leaders, and owners, of land next to the all-weather strip. The mayor proclaimed: “It was an organization and co-operation . for prosperity of the community->A committee known as the “Airport Development Committee” of Shelby county.” They went out with the ‘Do It Yourself” instead of federal aid. They had foreseen that the airplane would be of more value if we have more places to land. It was a prerequisite for getting new industry.” A commissioner added, “Sidney is one step forward in today’s must, new business with _ hew payroll. Keeps the community ’ prosperous and growing.” The mayor explained, “We have no funds for trying to rebuild our streets and. yet we promoted -a 3200 foot al-weather strip. It was easy to talk, do nothing about it, progresive business men like in the Community put their money where they put their mouths and developed the strip. They didn’t go to the government, they dog down' in their pockets. It showed a communist spirit in action. Project like this just doesn’t happen — lots of people worked oh this project. It’s a nucleus of man power that designed this airport. Leadership in Sidney can go far in progress with Spirited Leadership as we have.” A plaque was presented for posting in the airport office witl QUALITY PHOTO FINISHING All Work Left* on Thursday Ready the Next Day, Friday, Before Noon HOLTHOUSE DRUG CO.

Foresee Trend To Rear-Engine Cars ~
By KURT FREUDENTHAL United Press International INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — The success of rear-engine cars in last week’s 500-mile Speedway rac may result in an even greater trend next year to place the power plant behind the driver. True, only four of 11 rear-engine cars among the 66 entered in this year’s speed chase made the race, but three of them placed in the top 10. In fact, the Lotus-Ford team of Jim Clark and Dan Gurney ran 1-2 in the first part of the race, after Parnelli Jones, the eventual winner, made his first pit stop for fuel and tires. Clark placed second only to Jones, trailing the record - setter across the finish line by 33 seconds. He made only one pit stop, after his 95th lap. Gurney, who finished seventh, made three, but his last trip to ■ the pits was unscheduled. He came in just 15 laps from the finish to tighten a wheel, but it is doubtful that he would have caught Jim McElreath for sixth place without the extra stop. Thompson Experiments Al Miller, like Clark competing here for the first time, was ninth in one of Mickey Thompson’s machines. The fourth rear-engine creation, another Thompson machine driven by 50-year-old Duane Carter, developed engine trouble and went out at the halfway mark in 23rd position. Only Miller’s car was here last year, but Thompson had made enough changes since his 1962 experiments at the Speedway that it could not be considered “old.” Although Thompson showed up at the Speedway with five machines, the Lotus-Fords and the three Novis received even more attention from the railbirds. The interest picked up considerably after both Lotus cars averaged better than 150 mph in practice. The two cars, the brainchild of London’s Colin Chapman, were tabbed as the No. 1 threat to the “500” monopoly of the conventional roadsters powered by 4-cylinder ’meyer-Drake engines, and they did not disappoint their backers. The roadsters remained muteh in evidence, but the “500” finish, percentage-wise, swayed in- favor of the rear-engine cars, all running with smoother-performing, 8cyUnder plants. Seeks Lighter Cars Some drivers, mechanics and car owners were expected to ex--periment with rear - engine machines between now and next spring. Chapman returned home a wiser man and with the promise that for next year’s Memorial Day race he planned to build two cars—lighter than this year’s models and with bigger engines. The Bob Wilke team from Milwaukee, featuring Rodger Ward* and Don Branson, may turn to rear-engine design also. At least, car builder A. J. Watson indicated such a move was a possibility, there was also speculation that the Meyer-Drake engine may be used in a rear-engine car — at least on an eyperimental basis. As for the complex and sensitive Novis, they were expected to make at least one more attempt . to win' the' “560’' in their present form. Jim Hurtubise was running well and in third place when he was flagged off the course after 102 laps for dumping oil. Bobby Unser’s car hit the wall after two laps when the only other alterna-
tive was hitting another car on the track, and Art Malone’s supercharged machine, dogged by me- ! chanical problems, also went out 1 early in the race. State's GOP Woman Leader t For Goldwater By EUGENE J. CADOU 1 United Press international INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — They laughed when Mrs. lone Harrington sat down at the piano and began to play dulcet tunes for Sen. > Barry Goldwater. But, as in the advertisements of > yore, it’s different now. Not so long ago Mrs. Harrington, who is Republican national . committee worn an and who lives in Chesterton, became a national cochairman of the Draft-Goldwater-for-President Committee. In the camp *of Goldwater’s chief rival, New York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller, then were such Hoosier GOP stalwarts as Rep. Charles A. Halleck, GOP House leader and arch enemy of Mrs. Harrington; H. Dale Brown, Indianapolis, former GOP state chairman, and State Sen. Roy Conrad of Monticello, Senate caucus chairman, with Lt. Gov. Richard O. Ristine veering in that direction. Up came the domestic problems of Rockefeller, involving two divorces and a marriage, and the liquor law scandals in New York State. Conrad sensed the trend and said he feared that Rockefeller was “through.” He had visited often the hideaway headquarters of Rockefeller in New York. The other Hoosier Rockefeller partisans are likely to follow suit. Most of them are practical enough to believe that a huge volume of married women, always seeking to maintain a safe status quo, are apt to prefer someone else for president. National polls showed Goldwater in the lead for the GOP presidential bid after Rockefeller’s divorce and marriage. Most of the early Rockefeller backers in Indiana were 'motivated by the thought that he might be a winner. They never espoused his liberal views, for they are inherently conservative to the bone. But now that the winning image of Rockefeller appears to be blurred, they are not likely to stay with him. , The arch conservative of Hoosiers, sometimes described as far to the right of William McKinley, is former Sen. William E. Jenner, who backed Goldwater at the GOP convention in .1960 when Richard M. Nixon was the sure winner. Mrs. Harrington is one of Jenner’s staunchest supporters. * Seldom do the Hoosier male political chiefs pay any attention to women politicos. They gener- . ally , are classified with- -the- Young Republicans who are supposed to be seen and not heard. From now on, Mrs. Harrington is right sure both to be seen and heard. She seems to have guessed right when the guessing was hot too easy.
