IMS^ekvice* NOTES (PK0072) SAN DIEGO (FHTNC) June 7— Marine Private Alfred D. Lawton, 18. son of Mr. and Mrs. Elgy V. Lawton of Route 2, Redwood Road, North Liberty. Ind. was graduated from eight weeks of recruit training at the Marine Corps Recruit Depot here. He will now undergo two to four weeks of individal combat training and then, after leave at home, will report to his first Marine Corps assignment. The intensified Marine recruit training emphasizes rigid physical conditioning and survival techniques, both at sea and ashore, to develop self-confidence and endurance. Marksmanship with the M-14 rifle and 45-cali-ber pistol are equally stressed, and close order drill instills the traditions of Marine Corps teamwork. A thorough study of basic military subjects, hygiene, first aid and sanitation, and the customs, courtesies, history and mission of the Marine Corps serve to polish the new Marine s recruit education and prepare him to join the Marine combat forces.

Thousands of people will take to the beaches, swimming pools and lakes this summer, and while water can be fun, it can also be a killer. Already 28 people have drowned in Indiana since June 1. Dick Willsey. Purdue University extension safety specialist, says if you want to enjoy a safe summer of fun. you should follow th- se tips they may save your life: Don't swim if you are chilled, overheated or over-tired;

Don’t swim during storms; Never swim alone or dive into strange waters; Be accompanied by a boat if you arc going to swim long distances; Don’t try to show off. Willsey points out that swimming programs are < perabd by the Red Cross. YMCA and H\CA, school.'; and parks and 4 H camps. If you can't swim, you should learn, says Willsey, but whether you can swim or not, should become familiar with drownproofing. Drownproofing is a method of floating that will keep you alive in the water. The basic procedure: Take a deep breath, relax in the water with your arms and legs dangling. When you want to breathe, put your arms straight out in front from your shoulders. Spread your legs for a scissors kick-one forward and one back. Raise your head until it is nearly vertical, push down with your hands in a keyhole position, and bring your feet together. Exhale through your nose while you are surfacing. When your chin is even with the surface, open your eyes wide, open your mouth wide and inhale through your mouth. Relax and you will settle down into the water again. If you feel you are going to settle too deeply, give a slight downward push with your hands. Relax your position until you want another breath. For further information on drownproofing, contact your County Extension office. If you ean't swim, you can still save a life, points out Willsey. Therefore, you should be aware of these basic techniques for life saving: Reach out from shore and pull the victim slowly to safety. If he is farther away, use a life ring at the end of a rope. Throw it beyond the victim and draw it to him so he can grasp it. If you are in a boat, row to the victim and extend an oar to him. Maneuver the boat so the victim can grasp the stem, then row to safety. Learn mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Common sense will usually pay off toward a safe summer. Use your head and don't over i ntend yourself. Falling Apple Leaves Cause Concern Many domestic and crabapple varieties are now starting to shed leaves, causing worry to homeowners. There are two reasons for this leaf shedding, says Eric Sharvelle, Purdue University extension plant pathologist. First-formed leaves in the fruiting clusters were damaged by frost in early May and are now starting to fall. These can be recognized by the smaller, heart-shapt*d fruiting cluster leaves as contrasted with the normal, linear foliage leaves. Loss of these frost-injured leaves should not concern homeowners, says Sharvelle. In addition, apple scab disease is very prevalent in most areas of Indiana as a result of the prolonged wet weather in May. Homeowners who failed to control apple scab, w’hich is now causing some defoliation, are advised to spray with dodine (Cy« prex) at a dosage of one table* spoonful In one gallon of Watet using approximately three to five gallons to spray for a mature • • Buy your face arazor.^^ Gillettelechinatic Razor $195

tree. This will prevent further spreading of apple scab to other leaves and fruits during the summer months. Loss of y<>ung apples is normal for this season of the year and is commonly referred to as "the June drop.” Apple fruits that were unp> Hinated or were injured by cold weather during bloom normally fall from the tree in June. Cry From The Ghetto The cry from the ghetto must be heard and responded to in new’ and meaningful ways if the church and our society are to survive. Delegates from 247 congregations in Indiana. Kentucky and eastern Illinois gathered on the campus of Indiana Central College on June 6. 7 and 8 for the Fifth Annual Meeting of the Ind-iana-Kentucky Conference of the United Church of Christ a union of the Evangelical and Reformed Church will the Congregational Christian Church. "If. as we believe, the U. S. Riot Commission is correct in saying that the basic cause of this cris is white racism then we have failed our Lord in His commandment that we love our neighbors,” The Rev. Mr. Clyde C. Flannery said In his Conference Minister's Report. "The question now is whether the church can free itself from racial, economic and cultural prejudice in the short time availble to it and the nation”. Mr. Calvin I>>ck ridge, Chairman of the Black Consortum of Chicago, warned that the cry from ghetto is of despair, a cry of frustration urning into a cry of hate for the system that produced the ghetto. "But when that cry is no longer heard.” he continued. "then is the real danger.” "Integration has failed.” charged Mr. I^x-kridge and while an integration that accepts a man's humanity regard to his color is a resireable objective, it is an objective and not necessarily strategic at this time. And to argue that integration is a desirable objective does not make it a useful tactic. The assembled churchmen were also challenger to inolve their also challenged to involve programs to relieve the misery of the ghetto, by Mrs. Theodore Wallace of Shawnee Mission. Kansas. A member of the National Executive Council of the United Church of Christ also asked the Indiana
