Election Next Tuesday Next Tuesday is the primary election, in which all Democrats and Republicans will choose their candidates, their delegates to the state convention, and their precinct committeemen. Xhis is a very important election, and if you are a Democrat or a Republican, you should vote in it. If you cannot get to the polls on Tuesday because you are sick, because you will be out of town on business, or in college, or in the armed forces, you may make application immediately for an absent voter’s ballot — at the clerk’s office in the court house. For expecially those who strongly support or oppose Sen. Barry Goldwater for president, this may be the senator’s last chance. If he makes a good showing in Indiana, where he is supposed to rack up all the votes, his campaign may catch steam again; but if Stassen gets 10% of the vote, or more, it will be another knife in Barry's back, and he can’t stand many more! So, if you’re a Goldwater supporter, get out your fellow entusiasts — and if you. favor Nixon, Lodge, or some other candidate, back Stassen to take the wind out of Barry’s sails. In the Democrat primary, there are five candidates, only two of them serious — Welsh, who backs Pres. Johnson and Wallace. No Democratic leader in Indiana favors WaHace — and in fact, both Riotme and Bontrager, responsible Republicans, have also repudiated him. While in Fort Wayne the John Birchers have been instructed to desert Goldwater and vote in the Democratic primary for WaHace, it seems unlikely that this will 4 be a big factor in Adams county. President Johnson’s peace program, his tax cut, his easing of tensions between east and west, all seem to indicate that he will win big this November. ~ Meanwhile, we have some important choices to make in our own county primary. We have races for state representative, where incumbent state representative Burl Johnson, who is out actively campaigning, is opposed by young Larry Vizard, son of Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Vizard; Larry has been hampered somewhat in his campaign by being a student at Ball State, where he expects to be graduated in teaching this June; if nominated, he expects to take a teaching job in this county, if not, he has a contract in California, . where he formerly lived. ~ ’ There are also races for auditor, where Dick Lewton, Bob Lane, and Claude Marckel — three good men are running; for commissioner, first district, with Henry Getting and Johnnie Bultemeier; and 16 races for precinct committeeman, including a slate filed the last minute by Al Anderson in another attempt to unseat Dr. Harry H. Hebble as county chairman. 1 ***&

CRESTVIEW HIGH By Terry Belfenbacher ■i The graduation invitations and name cards have been received and will be passed out to the seniors Wednesday of this week. Soon these invitations will have been sent to our friends and relatives, we will have exchanged name cards with all of our classmates and May 31, graduation day, will have arrived. Just five more weeks, seniors! *” — C. H. S. — This Saturday, 37 students from Crestview high will go to Defiance College to take the final district-state scholarship test. Good luck! — C. H. S. — Officers for the junior Y-teens have been chosen for next year. H»ey are as follows: president, Mary Schumm; vice president. Pam Fortney: secretary, Doris Schaadt; treasurer, Joan Fegley; reporter, Margaret Tyas, and iriterclub council member. Jeanne Poling. Congratulations and good luck in the coming year! — C. H. S. — “There is a rumor out that Mr. Steffan will not be with us for a few days.” When everyone at C. H. S. read the preceding in last Friday’s publication of the Knight News, many smiles appeard. Actually, tthe reason for the smiles was not because Mr. Steffan had to leave his first period study hall students on Friday but because he had the measels. We hope to see you back real soon, Mr. Steffan! — C. H. S. — .DECATUR CATHOLIC HIGH By Fatty Schurger Juniors were busy writing thank-you notes to many people who helped to make the prom not only- possible but also a success. These people contributed such articles as lawn furniture, trees, paint, borders for the fountain, and especially their time, money, and talent. They deserve a general thank-you in addition to the notes for their aid. — D. C. H. S. - All was quiet Friday afternoon: exceptionally quiet. This a could be due to the drowsy and heavy-eyed juniors and seniors treading slowly throughout the school. Os course, Monday began an ordinary week, with none of the expectant air that has jilled the school the preceding week. D. C. H. S. - American flag essays were due Monday from the freshman, sophomores, and seniors, the juniors’ papers being due the following Monday. Many of these students were diligently searching for material, preparing, and writing their essays over the last weekend. — D. C. H. S. — Friday afternoon the band and chorus presented a music program for the entire high school. Many beautiful compositions were

played by the band, such as tunes from “South Pacific," “Music Man,” and “Star and Stripes Forever." Tbe chorus sang many melodious songs, such as “McNamara’s Band,” “Cool Water,” “Camptown Races," “April Showers,” and “Battle Hymn of the Republic.” The same was presented to the public Sunday evening. Enthusiastic applause and comments assured the director, Ed Heimann, that this was a job wen done. — D. C. H. S. — DECATUR HIGH SCHOOL by Marilyn Knudsen Tom Schnepf, a sophomore, scored the highest individual score in the district forestry competition last Saturday. Together with the scores of Steve Kohne and Roger Lehrman. Tom's score enabled the Decatur team to hold third place in the district and to continue to the state meet on the first day of the state fair. With 12 counties represented by 16 teams, the contest at Fremont teas more keenly competitive than those participated in before: the Decatur team was barely nosed out of second place by one point. Another Adams county team, Geneva, took first place; and both teams will represent the county next summer. Tom’s score out o? 650 was 638, Steve s score was 607, and Roger made 592; so the team at state will consist of Tom and Steve, with Roger as an alternate. — D. H. S. — Interested in helping worthy and needy students in furthering their education, each year the Rotarians of Decatur give two scholarships to the Decatur schools. This year one will be given to a D. H. S. senior who qualifies by writing an application to be turned in to Mr. Dorwin before May 1 and who proves most worthy on the basis of the material in the application. Any interested senior is eligible to submit his application, regardless of rank in class. — D. H. S. — Having received their name cards, announcements, and memory books on April 22, the seniors are busily engaged in exchanging the cards, collecting autographs of their classmates for the books, and planning the list of people to whom they will send announcements. — D. H. S. — Buster Melchi is now added to the list of bovs on the track team who have broken school records this year. Last week this enterprising senior brojte the low hurdle record recently set by Craig McEwan. — D. H. S. —

With a variety of songs ranging from sacred to popular, the fifty voice choir of Ball State College, under the direction of Donald Neuen, presented one of the year’s most entertaniing programs last Thursday. As president of the choir, Tom Baxter introduced the group whose appearance had been arranged by the music department. — D. H. S. - Dave Anspaugh, Bob De Voss, and Jim Brown, and Tom Whitaker have been selected to attend Boys’ State this summer, representing Decatur; in case one of the boys is unable to attend, Tom Engle will serve as alternate. Working to stimulate better citizenship in the young men of Indiana, Boy State was established; Many boys have profited from the opportunities it offers in this state. — D. H. S. — * Engraved in black on a white card, the mesages passed out to the seniors last Friday read, “The junior class of Decatur high school request the honor of your presence,” and this, of course, is a harbinger of the annual juniorsenior prom to be held this year on the 15th of May at the Community Center. With the juniors working industriously on a theme that is yet to be divulged, the boys seeking out dates, and the girls worrying over hair-dos and formats, already there is an iir of anticipation around the school. — D. H. S. — If the lights blazing at the school these past few weeks look as though it’s a direct rebellion against President Johnson's war on poverty, it is not; it is merely the cast and crew of “The Dreamer” rehearsing the musical play to be presented both Friday and Saturday nights. Tickets may be purchased from band and choir members who will be happy to help anyone to an entertaining evening. Last Monday a full-fledged dress rehearsal was held, and having worked to prepare themselves for the grand climax, the cast is ready to go. — D. H. S. - While calmly eating his breakfast in a local diner, Mr. Heller, publisher of the Decatur Daily DerrfDcrat, saw a group of students crossing the courthouse yard, but thinking they were only visiting the court, he took another bite. Suddenly he realized that this was the day the Democrat was being toured by the D. H. S. journalism class. Foregoing his morning re-' past, he hurried over to his office to direct the trip through the newspaper office, which was enpoyed by the class members. — D. H.
