Gerber officially opened headquarters Saturday night, he started off with a very fine pledge — to keep regular hours, if elected mayor, and to visit, inspect and supervise the city offices. The incumbent mayor, opponent of Mr. Ger ber, is a very fine man, personally, and no doubt 7 - could have been a very fine mayor. But the press of his tool business has been such that finding him in the mayor’s office has been quite a rarity. Decatur is a growing city of more than 8,500 population. It deserves a mayor who can be found in the city office more frequently than Saturday mornings, and every other Tuesday night. Decatur is fortunate in having very fine city department heads. But closer cooperation between the city administration and its departments, by more frequent supervision and interaction, would probably have prevented the present manpower situation in the police department. And we don’t have to mention the street department—for three years, it has talked up for itself.. More careful direction in this department by the mayor might have helped considerably. Even now, the alley and street-paving program was started by the board of works without the prior knowledge of the street committee! Mayor Gerber’s speech is given in full elsewhere in this newspaper, but we feel that every citizen should read it.. To provide increasing employment for our sons and daughters, to provide growing business opportunities, to service our present growing population, the opportunities for expansion must be present in Decatur. Carl Gerber has been one of the forward-looking men whose leadership has made the present growth of Decatur possible. He has not fought the inevitable—instead, he has tried to shape it in such away as to help build a better, finer Decatur. Eighty years ago ’■Decatur went out and encouraged the railroads to build through the county seat. Forty years ago industrialization started, and has continued. • ——— - - - - . . . ¥ ... Carl Gerber will provide the thoughful, steady, experienced leadership for continued growth. His eight years of experience on the city council, his own business experience, will go a long way toward giving him the important background he needs to keep Decatur growing.

Scholastic Aptitude Tests December 7 VALPARAISO, Ind. Indiana high school students interested in applying for a scholarship at a college or university in Indiana have been alerted to a November 9 deadline for registration. The scholastic aptitude test of the college board will be given to an expected 20,000 applicants Dec. 7 in approximately 130 tests sites placed in strategic areas throughout the state. i Application directions issued from the office of Mrs. Josephine Ferguson, chairman of the scholarship association of Indiana colleges and universities remind all candidates to name at least one of 30 Indiana colleges as a recipient of their test scores when they register. Only the indicated institution can then offer the student a scholarship. If so desired, a later change of preference can be made by notifying the director of scholarships at. the college first preferred. Individual high school counsellors and principals will furnish students with information and help in completing registration and application forms as well as supplying each candidate with a college preference card. In addition, “Clues”, a brochure explaining the Indiana scholarship program has been sent to all Indiana high school seniors. Candidates selected for scholarships are usually notified in early January. In most cases, size of the scholarship is dependent on financial need. The scholarship association of Indiana colleges and universities was formed 15 years ago as the result of a growing need for uniformity of application; a more effective means of communicating scholarship information to student, school and parent; and the elimination of competition on the part of the various institutions. to the quota of $1,347,600.
