Single copies 7 cents Good Luck, Carl The Decatur Daily Democrat wishes the best of luck to Decatur’s 15th Democratic mayor in 81 years, our 20th mayor. Gerber promised to try to solve Decatur’s perennial water supply problem, and to provide the leadership for a girl’s recreation program among other things. We hope he will be able to do this. From the beginning, we have felt that Gerber would be elected. People seem to vote negatively; in 1955 Robert D. Cole built up a total of 2,(107 votes — but when he ran for reelection, his total dropped off to 1,704.. And four years ago Don Gage amassed 1,708 votes, which dropped off to 1,420 this time. It seems that being mayor you are quite likely to make about 300 of your loyal supporters so mad that they don’t vote for you for reelection! Let’s hope that Carl can reverse that by hard work. The new city council has a big challenge, too. Two veteran members, Lawrence Kohne and Clyde Drake, will help the three newcomers learn the ropes. There can be little excuse for lack of progress as Decatur tackles its problems — the mayor has his entire Democratic team elected with him. If they do not produce, the electorate will undoubtedly dump them in the 1967 election. Setting up a reservoir plan will not be easy. It is necessary, but it will mean making some people mighty unhappy — the ones who live on the property where the reservoir will be. located. Engineering surveys will be needed at once, or four years will be too little time. Decatur has many other problems just as important. Should any of the streets be made one- . way, as in Fort Wayne, to speed traffic, or is it fast enough most of the time? Should the city see that new sidewalks are built where they are needed, especially in areas with many children? Should a bicycle regulating ordinance be passed so that bike riders would be required to have lights on their hikes at night, and ride correctly at all times? Yes, there are four challenging years before the new administration. There is much to do, much to be done. , ' ' If you have never attended a city council meeting, who don’t you plan to attend one soon? Your ideas, given informally to council members and the new mayor, could be a big help. The more ideas that ate thought over, the better chance we have of getting the program which Decatur people want and deserve. Decatur can and will! Editorial written by „ Diek Heller

The School Reporter

DECATUR CATHOLIC HIGH By Joan Gase ■ i The kickoff proved to be a great success thanks to the student council. The doughnuts, popcorn balls and pop vanished quickly as the group danced to their favorite tunes. Dick Omlor reigned as the king for the evening. Students are grateful to chaperons and others wno made the event possible. A big thank you to those wonderful students who contributed their time on Saturday to clean up. — D. C. H. S. — The National Honor Society held a meeting October 30. Sister Jovita, the society's moderator, announced the names of those to be inducted in the November induction. Sister Jovita spoke to the members on what is expected of an NHS member. She said that in order to be a member of the society, a person must continually prove himself worthy of the honor through outstanding character, leadership, scholarship and service. The members have launched a courtesy campaign for the betterment of their school. Poster reminders can be seen in the various classrooms. - D. C. H. S. — Our band presented an appreciation concert last Sunday evening as a thank you to all who contributed toward the new uniforms. During the evening the Astronotes; Jim Heimann, Jim Becket, David Braun and Elizabeth Rumschlaug, presented a few numbers to the audience. — D. C. H. S. — Our first basketball game will be played Tuesday, November 12, at Larwill. The team has been practicing very hard for the past four weeks. The team looks good and everyone is looking forward to a good season. Adult tickets are on sale now. Students can purchase their tickets on Thursday. Good luck team. — D. C. H. S. — Over last week-end Sister Petronilla, teacher of business subjects, attended the convention of the midwest unit of the Catholic business education association, held at the Palmer House, Chicago. The convention keynote address. “Meeting the Demands of the Businessman," was given by Dr. Robert E. Slaughter, vice president of the McGraw-Hill Book company. Brother L. Robert, F. SC.. president of the association. spoke on ‘'Economics and Contemporary Man," and Rev. Raymond BauYnhart, S. J., presented “Ethics of the Businessman.’’ Sister’s classes, I am sure, will profit from the fine talks she heard and from the exhibits of office equipment that she saw. - D. C. H. S. — DECATUR HIGH SCHOOL by Marilyn Knudsen "People have said that Decatur just isn’t a football town, but this year we have proved that we are." said Wally Yeoman, the head coach, to the Decatur student body at the pep session before the Angola game. ThiS season is surely something of which we are all proud. With a final blast-of glory, the twelve senior men emblazoned a trail of vict< uyftirfu tur eteam s to emulate. The other men. who will return next year, have broadened their shoulders with muscles and broadened their knowledge with experience. All of the credit, however, is not due to the team, nor even to the coaches, headed by Mr Yeoman. Credit should also be given to an avid cheering bloc, an enthusiastic team of cheerleaders and the men who so diligently drove the fan buses. — DHS. — The D. H. S. marching band subjected itself and the new uniforms to toYrents of rain Thursday to march in the annual Calithumpian parade. Prohibited from the band ( competition, the band and color guard still carried high the standards of the school. - D. H. S. — Proudly displayed in the social science "room are two new flags, one of the United States, the other of Indiana. They are appropriately’ standing in this room where citizenship -is taught to* the students. - D. H. S. — For a suspensful evening. c§n you better’this? It is All Hallows’ Eve; eight students pile into cars

By the school spirit that was shown at the pep session, and by the posters throughout the school, it is sure that the small amount of bab luck that his Crestview will not effect the Knights when they meet with Mendon Friday night, November 8, on the Mendon floor.
