Overwhelming Support The 500-odd returns represented 2,212 rural people, Smith stated. Os the returns, 437 favored the library service, 46 opposed it. Also, 351 said they wanted it on the township rate, and 74 opposed it. The library representatives gave each township trustee exact figures on the use and desire to use the libraries by the people in the township who returned the forms, or who used the libarary. Rates in the three cities served are 20 cents in Decatur, 25 cents in Berne, and 28 cents in Geneva. Smith stated that the minimum township levy recommended by the Indiana library association is 5 cents per SIOO assessed valuation. Smith asked that the trustees each consider putting in this rate; it is the same rate that Washington township is paying. Preble Favors Plan Kolter, representing Preble township, stated that a few years ago he purchased library cards, for $250, for the children who desired them in Preble township, and that both the children and parents have >been quite enthusiastic. He said he fully supports the program and will put a 5 cent levy in the budget he submits to his advisory board. Gerald W. Vizard, county superintendent, and chairman, thanked the group, and told them that each trustee would give the matter careful consideration.

The decision came in a dispute over a rate increase charged to Colton, Calif., by Southern California Edison Co. Haul Slone, Gravel For County Roads The county highway department is presently hauling crushed stone and gravel to various county roads, Lawrence Noll, county highway superintendent, told the county commissioners today. The gravel is being hauled from the Robert Rice quarry on highway 27 to roads in the north part of the county. Will Grade Soon Noll asked that rural people have patience on the grading of the roads, which are soft and in bad shape right now. No grading can be done as long as the roads are wet, and as they dry, work will begin. Meanwhile, stone will be hauled into place. Noll told the commissioners that one man had complained about the use of a snowplow on his road. He had his trailer parked right along the road, and snowplow threw snow against his trailer; he works the second shift, so he was trying to sleep when the plow was working. Noll that the only way he could see out of the situation was to move the trailer back from the road: the roads mfist be cleared for the others who live on them, and the county crews cannot be worked all night and all day to keep from waking sleeping people. Noll also reported that his department does not salt cement roads; they use sand on them. The reason, Noll stated, is that salt pits the cement badly. Buy New Loader He also told the commissioners that he had purchased a 5-horse-povfer loader for the emory grinder in the county highway garage for $25 second-hand. It works very well, he reported, and re-

13 Schools In Indiana First Time Winners By KURT FREUDENTHAL United Prem International INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—A lot of new faces and some familiar ones will show up in Saturday’s Indiana high school basketball tourney regionals, and if the first round was a tipoff, the fireworks have really just begun. Once the dust cleared from a four-day, 533-game schedule, these facts stood out: —Thirteen schools won sectional honors for the first time. —Only 25 sectional champs repeated. —The three finalists from last year’s show are still pitching. Chaihpion Muncie Central, the fourth club, has been benched for disciplinary reasons. —Columbus remained the lone unbeaten team in the big show. —Six Ul£ “Big 10” outfits advanced. Upset Victims Gone are Gary Roosevelt, Indianapolis Washington and Tipton, all upset Saturday, and Evansville Central, which went down Thursday night. But toprated Columbus, hitting at a record clip, and Lafayette pace the elite into Round 2 of the month-long struggle. Top surprise was Indianapolis Howe’s easy 77-64 triumph over fifth-rated city foe Washington for Southport sectional honors, the Hornets’ first tourney title in 20 years. Howe lost to the Continentals by 26 points during the season but led them virtually all the way this time. Third-rated Roosevelt bowed to Gary Froebel, 95-87, reversing a pair of regular season victories, and seventhseeded Tipton couldn’t handle Noblesville at Carmel, losing in overtime, 75-72. Both Indianapolis Washington and Tipton played without stars —and Lafayette’s second-rated Bronchos find themselves in similar fix today. They may have to go Saturday without top scorer Denny Brady, who suffered a knee injury against Southwestern in the sectional semi-finals. Lafayette, however, was not expected to be challenged seriously in the regionals. - '- Powers Still In Other season-long powers still rolling include Indianapolis . Tech, Anderson, Huntington and Elkhart. First-time sectiohal honors went to Muncie South, Clinton Prairie at Frankfort, Turkey Run at Clinton, Shakamak at Sullivan, Evansville Rex Mundi, DeMotte at Rensselaer, North Know at Vincennes, North White at Monon, Swayzee at Marion, Clarksburg at Greensburg; Adams Central, Pioneer at Logansport, and Needmore at Bedford. Columbus twice surpassed the century mark, making it eight times counting regular season play, to average a record 99.3 points in three sectional games. The old mark of 96.5 per game was set by Valparaiso in 1959. The Bulldogs also whacked their foes by the largest winning margin, a whopping 38.3 points per game* Winchester had the secondbest offense, sparked by a sin-gle-game high of 114 points, with a 97.3 average and Valpo pumped in 92 points per game. New Castle trounced its sectional foes by a margin of 33.5 points per game, Valpo by 32.7 and Winchester by 32.3. On defense, little Boonville stole the show, holding its foes to an average of 39.3 points and just beating out Huntington at 39.6 and Princeton at 40 points. Slimmest Point Margin Swayzee gained the next round by the slimmest margin —3.3 points per game. Turkey Run squeaked through by a 3.7 margin and Terre Haute Garfield, a state finalist last time, by just 4 points. Garfield was put through -the wringer Saturday, edging city foes Wiley in overtime, 40-38, on a disputed play, and outlasting Schulte in four overtimes, 55-54. In both games Frank Hamblen’s clutch shooting saved the day for the Purple Eagles. At Van Buren, Brazil led Spencer all the way—until the final second when Bob Hawkins’ field goal gave Spencer a 73-71 victory. South Bend Central, runnerup to Muncie last time, stayed alive on Mike Warren's five free throws in the last 30 seconds for a 64-61 win over Mishawaka, which previously derailed two other South Bend quintets. Lenny Boswell’s pair of free throws won for Swayzee over Oak Hill in three overtimes at Marion, 38-37. And Madison which meets Columbus Saturday was extended to the limit by neighbor Shawe. It took Randy Phom’s fielder in the final seconds to assure a 64-63 wta. ~ Nine defending regional winners are left and the ranks of former state champs has been . reduced frpm 28 to 12.
