A sharp decline in the number of rabies cases in animals in Indiana during 1963 points up the effectiveness of vaccination of dogs and control of strays, says Dr. K. M. Weinland, Purdue University extension veterinarian. However, he cautions against false optimism and reminds dog owners that state law requires annual vaccination of dogs. Fifty-one cases of the fatal disease, most of them in dogs and skunks, were identified by laboratory tests last year, compared to 197 in 1962. During the first three months of this year seven cases have been identified. They were diagonosed in dogs, cattle, cats and skunks. Although rabies is present all year, it is more often seen during spring and summer. During these months children and pets are allowed more freedom and run a greater chance of exposure. Too, with more persons taking up camping, hiking and other outdoor activities, the possibility of persons being bitten by a rabid animal increases. In the early stage of the disease, rabid animals roam and wander aimlessly, attacking other animals and even inanimate objects. Thus, a single rabid animal may expose many other animals and persons. A few’ years ago, rabid skunks were wandering at large over the county. Some rabid raccoons were found along the river, and it was necessary to give rabies shots, injected through the stomach, to a number of children who played with the animals before they were discovered to be rabid. Never, never pick up wild animals — they may be sick. Mother animals do not abandon their young, unless they die, and they may very well have transmitted their disease to the little ones. — —— — Once rabies is contracted, there is no cure, and death is the only release from the pain and anguish suffered by the luckless victim. Rabies can only be prevented by annual' vaccinations of dogs, cats, and other carriers. If you have children or grandchildren around, be especially careful that they never play with wild animals that act suspiciously. Editorial written byDick Helle

Remanded To Jail ■ For Refusal To Pay Leo D. Busick, Union township, was remanded to the Adams county jail by city court Judge John B. Stults this morning, when he refused to pay an sll fine for violation of the parking meters. Several persons in recent years have paid additional fines, other than the actual meter fine, lij city court, but Busick is the first to-, be sent to jail on a meter violation. j

Busick was arrested about three weeks ago on a city warrant for failing to pay the fine. He appeared in city court twice A and last Monday, Judge StUlts took the matter under advisement. When the judge found Busick guilty this morning, he fined him $1 and costs, amounting to sll, but the Union township resident t refused to pay the fine. He wouldn’t pay the fine, so he was ordered to jail to “lay out’’ the sll fine, which will amount to three day* In his trial, held in a previous city court session, Busick con-

tended he was innocent of the charge. He said he attempted to put money in the meter, but it was not working. He also contended that after , receiving the ticket, he placed a quarter in the yellow envelope and put it in a courtesy box. Parking meter officer Ray Seitz testified that the fine was never received by Sim. or the city police department.

Youth Is Fined On Drag Race Charges Tom Allen Norris, 16-year-old redisent of route 1, Monroe, was fined the minimum $1 and costs, totaling $22.75, in city court this morning, after his arrest Friday for an alleged drag race. Norris was arrested on an affivadit signed by Lawrence Noll, county highway supervisor, who saw a car driven by Norris and another vehicle racing on Monroe street extended Thursday afternoon. The young man was charged with violation of the speed contest statute .enacted in 1963. The state statute, passed in 1963, prohibits certain activities in relations to speed contests, such as drag racing. The law was passed to provide a stiffer penalty than the reckless driving charge which was previously levied for a drag race, or some other type of race. The speed contest statute provides for a fine not to exceed S2OO and a jail sentence not to exceed 90 days, or both. Fined Minimum Norris pleaded not guilty to the charge in city court this morning, but after sheriff Roger Singleton * _____________________

This same kind of teamwork among Indiana’s Five Investor-Owned Electric Companies pays off in low electric rates for you. Although each operates separately, the generating ahd transmission facilities of Indiana’s Electric Companies are interconnected into a "power pool”. On occasions when extra electric power is needed each of the 5 electric companies can "borrow” the electricity it needs instantly from a neighboring company. This means more efficient use of generating facilities and the most dependable service at the lowest possible rates for you. ' 7 .
