Indiana Youth Council David Anspaugh, son of Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Anspaugh, of Homestead 9, and Tom Macklin, son of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Macklin of Homestead 24, will represent Adams county at the spring conference of the Youth Advisory committee to the Indiana Youth Council this Friday and Saturday, according to word received today from Jacques H. Leßoy, director of the council. • Young people from throughout the state, on the advice of the local advisory council, have been appointed by the governor to meet to discuss such topics as driving regulations, voting age, patriotism, community pride, and teen-age problems. This is the third biennial conference, one of the accomplishments of the present governor. There will Tie five discussion areas — youth and community, juvenile decency, youth and law, youth and government, and youth and education. James T. Neal, Jr.? son of the editor of the Noblesville Daily Ledger and secretary of the Repub- • lican state central committee, is chairman of the youth advisory committee, and has appointed a number of discussion leaders from throughout the state. No one is closer to the problems of youth than a youth, and it makes good sense that responsible young people from all parts of Indiana will meet together and discuss important matters that affect them vitally. Here in Adams county Ferris Bower heads the adult advisory group that keeps our county in contact with the state youth council. Bower’s work is recognized over the entire state as outstanding, and his public service on behalf of young people is deeply appreciated. No doubt Dave and Tom will gain greatly from their experiences at Indianapolis, and will have a valuable report to bring back —a report that we here in Decatur will read with interest. Too many of us are willing to set back and let the world pass us by, without making a mark on the sands of time. But how willing we are to complain, sneer, and crab when a mistake is made! There are few things of a constructive nature impossible for us to do if we all pitch in and try. But ’ we have to try! So let’s be proud that Adorns county will he well represented at the coming youth conference, and may those taking part be successful m helping to find some answers to pressing problems of youth.

Top Cigarette Makers Join In Ad Code NEW YORK (UPD—The nation’s leading cigarette manufacturers have joined hands in a move t o discourage youngsters from smoking. Tbe Tobacco Institute, which represents the manufacturers, announced Monday a new code designed to curb advertising stressing athletic prowess, social distinction and sex appeal. The tobacco industry has been under fire since a report by U.S. Surgeon General Luther L. Terry more than four months ago linking smoking to cancer and other diseases. However, attorneys for the institute told a public hearing of the Federal Trade Commission <FTC) last March 16 that such a code had been in the works for some time. The code, still subject to clearance by the Department of Justice under anti-trust laws, affects advertising on radio and television and in newspapers and magazines. Under the code, all cigarette advertising first would have to be approved by an independent administrator, who would enforce the code and fine violators up to SIOO,OOO for infractions. The administrator has not yet been named. The code bans advertising in the form of testimonials by well-known athletes or former athletes and forbids advertising in college newspapers and magazines or in comic books or comic supplements to newspapers. “Cigarette advertising shall not represent that cigarette smoking is essential to social prominence, distinction, success <?r sexual attraction,” the code states. The code also prohibits the distribution of cigarette samples to persons under the age of 21 and bans “promotional efforts” on school or college campuses or in fraternity or sorority houses. Cigar ette advertising under the code is prohibited on programs or in publications aimed at youths, and persons depicted in advertising as smokers must be at least 25 years old and must appear to be that old. The announcement was made in behalf of the American Tobacco Co., Brown & Williamson Tobacco Corp., Larus & Brother Co. Inc., Liggett & Myers Tobacco Co., P- Lorillard Co., Philip Morris Inc., R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co., Stephano Brothers Inc., and the United States Tobacco Co. > Zepha Eversole Dies Miss Zepha May Eversole, 82, died at 2:45 p.m. Monday at her home in Murrary. Surviving are two sisters, Mrs. Martha Dill of Bluffton route 1, and Miss Hazel Eversole of Murray, and several nieces and nephews. Services will be held at 2 p.m. Thursday at the Thoma funeral home in Murray. Surviving are St. Paul's cemetery. Friends may call at the funeral home after 7 p.m. today. River Is Now Just Above Flood Stage Despite nearly an inch of rain that fell on this city Monday, the St. Mary's river is out of its banks in only certain locations, and is now just above flood stage. A check of the river by Louis L-.~ Landrum this morning showed it at a depth of 13.80 feet, or less than a foot above the flood stage. Decatur received just slightly less than an inch of rain Monday, as Landrum’s gauge measured .98 inches. New York Stock Exchange Price MIDDAY PRICES A.

Rensselaer Clean-Up Campaign Success

Harry Yeoman, father of Decatur high school football and track coach Wally Yeoman, recently headed up a city clean-up campaign in Rensselaer which netted 235 truckloads of trash in one Saturday, thanks to the cooperation of the entire city. Yeoman, city street commissioner of Rensselaer, worked closely with Mayor Emmett W. Eger, a cousin of Mrs. Martha Heller of Decatur, and clfeari-up chairman Joseph Sheldon, a city council member. Mayor Eger has given each of the councilmen an active committee assignment on a short-term basis to show concrete improvement in Rensselaer during the first Democratic administration in the history of that city. Rensselaer is the site of St. Joseph College, attended by a number of students from Decatur. Clean-up Badly Needed Last year, Yeoman explained, the annual spring clean-up in Rensselaer was a prolonged affair that drug on all summer with no real results. He proposed to the city council that this year a real attempt be made, through publicity to all city organizations, to make this a real one-day cleanup effort. Eger and the counci) liked the suggestion, and apoointed Sheldon to work out the details with Yeoman. , A meeting of civic leaders and club presidents was called, and Sheldon organized them effectively into a fine campaign. Boy Scouts Help Two Boy Scout units, the street department and fire department volunteered to help all older people who were unable to clean up their own property. Two men in each area of the city were appointed by Sheldon to spot all places that needed cleaning — lots, alleys, old snacks, buildings, etc. Their reports, covering two weeks of observation, were plotted on a master plan of the city. Others Cooperate The JayCees, civil defense organization, Lions, Boy Scouts, Junior Cadets, CYO, DeMolays, 4-H, worked together. Women’s organizations of five churches, — Catholic, Methodist. Christian, Lul theran and Presbyterian — prepared dinner for the workers. Local contractors and truckers furnished trucks for the work, as well as bulldozers, highlifts, and . other useful equipment. The state highway departmen, county highway department, trucks and men, factory workers, volunteers, and individuals totaled 142, almost 50 per cent more than expected. There were 25 trucks, four high lifts, and a bulldozer that worked at the dump area. 42 Fix Lunch From the church organizations 42 women fixed lunch, which was served by girls from the CYO and • -Rainbow -organizations. Merchants donated the food for the meal. The units were detailed from the master plan, precinct by precinct, with so many workers to each truck, so many trucks to each precinct. By 5 p.m., the cutoff time, 235 loads of trash had been carted, burned by the fire department, bulldozed into the city dump. Save $2,500 Publicity ahead of time by the newspaper and radio station contributed the most to the team es-

fort. Yeoman explained. The event will now be a yearly feautre, and it is estimated that the team effort by volunteers saved the city $2,500 in work and time, which would have come from the taxpayers, as well as adding beauty and respect to the city. During the day, four old homes were burned by the fire department, lots were cleaned, and the city was put into shape for the coming summer. The Jaycees put siding on a home for an elderly couple, and painted a small home for a widow who had a family of young children. 45 ARE (Continued from Page One) ing a standard class at this time; the class consists of nine students.

The home service report included information that 21 active service cases, nine veteran cases, and 19 civilian cases were processed during the quarter, a total of 49. The month of March had the heaviest case load due to the disasters in Alaska and Berne.

AN OPEN LETTER TO ALL PARENTS WARNING The record of automobile accidents for single men under the age of 25 is becoming a national disgrace. Many thousands of young men die and are permanently injured each year in automobile accidents. In addition many thousands of innocent people are killed and permanently injured in these same accidents. 1 out of every 8 male drivers over the age of 25 will be in an accident THIS YEAR. 4 out of 8 single male drivers UNDER the age of 25 will be in an accident this year. A recent survey of 100,000 single male drivers, under the age of 25, who had accident free records to start were checked over a three year period. THIS WAS THE RESULT:1. Those drivers who had 1 traffic arrest, their accident frequency increased 30%. This means that for those who were arrested for traffic light violations, stop sign violations, speeding, etc., the number of actual accidents increased 30% above the poor record outlined above. 2. Those drivers who had 2 traffic arrests, their accident frequency increased 40%; 3 arrests 50%; 4 arrests 75%. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN TO YOU? This means that most insurance companies are going to increase the cost of - auto insurance to these young men when they are arrested for traffic violations and for preventable accidents. At the present time many young men pay insurance premiums in excess of $175.00 per year for liability and property damage protection alone. * School authorities and police advise us that many young men do not realize the seriousness of this situation. Many take the attitude, 'IT WON T HAPPEN TO ME." The result is that insurance companies are going to hit the place where most , young men will listen —the actual cost of their insurance. 97% OF ALL AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENTS CAN BE PREVENTED. What kind of a driver is your boy? Have you talked to the school authorities • and the police? Has he ever been arrested for a traffic violation? Has he been involved in a "preventable" accident? We are writing to you with the hope you will talk to your boy and take the time to investigate his driving habits. Yes, we admit we are somewhat selfish in wanting to prevent accidents be- —_ cause THE FUTURE OF OUR BUSINESS IS AT STAKE. We cannot continue to increase our business if this slaughter and dismemberment of our young men continues. Neither can we continue to increase our business if the cost of auto insurance increases to the point where these young people cannot afford to buy the insurance coverage. This problem is for you, the parents, and for us, the insurance men. ' * •—— . ■ We want dll of our young people to enjoy the privilege of driving a car. Just remember this:—When your son is arrested, when he has a preventable accident, when he has been refused insurance by company after company, when he finds a company that will accept the protection but the cost is more than the value of the car—WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO HELP HIM. We wartt your help in keeping our young people alive and we want your v cooperation in helping us to reduce the cost of insurance protection so that we can continue our efforts to provide your children, your grandchildren and your great-grandchildren with the finest insurance protection at the lowest possible cost. NOW is the time to talk to your son. TOMORROW MAY BE TOO LATE. We pledge our full cooperation and will be glad to assist you in every way. -•/ Thank you. y Sincerely yours, Arthur D. Suttles ~, The Suttles Co. , - * ' ’ - •
