Gifts To Patients Urged By Governor Mrs. John Brunso, chairman of the Christmas gift project for JJecatur, received a statement from Governor Matthew E. Welsh. He said, “Selecting gifts for patients in our state mental hospitals and schools for the retarded has become a Christmas holiday tradition in Indiana thanks to the efforts of the Indiana Association for Mental Health. “Not a single patient is ever forgotten at Christmas, but even as important as the gift itself, is the patient’o realization that someone really cares. “The citizens of our state should be commended for sharing this holiday with those unable to be at home with family and friends. My sincerest gratitude goes also to the 92 county mental health association Christmas chairmen for devoting so much of their time during this busy -season so our 18.000 patients may know some of the joys of Christmas. “Those who have not participated in giving in the past will have the opportunity this year to share in the experience of giving to patients in our state mental institutions a greater measure of Christmas cheer. An in doing this, the donors will find increased joy in Christmas themselves.” Mrs. Brunso said that residents of Decatur will have an opportunity to contribute their gifts by leaving them at the following collection depots: Mental Helath Office, 228 N. 2nd, The Gas Company, Gass Ready To Wear and Schnepf Realtor. Mrs. Brunso added that any persons who wish to contribute gifts but are unable to get to town may contact her to make the necessary arrangements.

Turmoil Ahead In Changes In State Offices "INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — The seat of Indiana state government w.as in the quiet eye of the four-year political hurricane todays The adjutants of the State house and State Office Building were recovering from the frenzied campaign which produced changes in 11 of the state elective offices and will leave only 7 elected Republican state officials in office—all in the judicial branch. They are Supreme Court Judges Norman Arterburn, Harold Achor and Frederick Landis; Appellate Court Judges Joseph Carson, Donald Mote and Donald Hunter, and Court Clerk Jean Bond. Ahead of the quiet stop of these few days lies the turmoil that comes with a changed administration. Governor - elect Roger Branigin, although like outgoing Governor Welsh a Democrat, differs in some of his views from his predecessor and some changes are inevitable. However, even if Branigin is spending the few days of “vacation” which his staff said he is now enjoying, in getting acquainted with his new duties, it is not likely he can do much changing for several months. Facing Branigin with top priority is the 1965 Legislature and organization of the heavy Democratic majorities in. the House and Senate is a very hear task about which the incoming governor will be consulted. At least four persons are known to be seeking the speakership of the House—Reps. Richard Bodine, Mishawaka; William Sebree, Anderson; Wayne Townsend, Upland, and Ronald Drake, Farmersburg. In the Senate, where a former House member—Robert Rock — will be presiding by virtue of election as. lieutenant governor, Jack Mankin, Terre Haute, long has eyed the president pro tern ,j?osX . « A former senator returning to’ the , upper chamber —Nelson Grills of Indianapolis—has been mentioned also. A three-day preliminary meeting of the legislature will open ' Dec. 1 and the party organization meetings are likely to precede that date. Branigin’s associates said he I is expected here next week to 1 start picking up the responsibilities of the new job which he will assume Jan. 11. Meanwhile, politicians and newsmen eyed the various department heads and questioned many of them, but apparently Branigin has made no immediate decisions on who would run these agencies. Zeke Evans Suffers From Heart Attack A prominent local man, Zeke Evans, who has been a timber buyer for over 35 years, fell from a ladder at his home and was stricken with a heart attack. He is reported resting comfortably at the Adams county memorial hospital.

Pope Paul Presides Over Council Meet VATICAN CITY (UPI)-Pope ■ Paul VI presided for the first time today over a working session of the Ecumenical Council to dramatize “the seriousness of the missionary activity of the church." The Pope normally monitors debates among the 2,200 bishops and higher prelates in St. Peter’s Basilica on closed circuit television. But today’s session dealt with the question of missionary work, and the Pope appeared in person. In a brief Latin homily, the Pope underscored his own planned visit to a Eucharistic Congress in Bombay, India, next month. He has called himself a “missionary pope” and said the council’s consideration of questions on the missions would give “a new path and new stimulation to mission work.” The Pope assisted at the Mass in the rite which opened the day’s session with native African singers chanting, beating tom-toms and cymbals, and clapping hands in rhythm. The Ethiopia rite has been used before, as have the rites of the East, all to emphasize the universality of the Roman Catholic Church. The Pope said the opening prayer of the work session and then took a place at the table of the presidency with the cardinals who are acting as executives of the council, rather than sitting on the papal throne. Among the cardinals at the presidency table with the Pope was Francis Cardinal Spellman of New York. The Pope spoke briefly on the church’s “divine mandate to preach to all preachers” in spreading the word of God. Pope Paul did not stay for the entire work session, which lasted more than three hours. He left after about two hours. Mother Kills Three Children And Self CLIFTON, N.J.
