MEMORIAL DAY — MAY 30

Memorial Day is one of the most popular holidays in the United States. Coming as it does, in the Spring of the year, the weather is usually good, the days are warm, the roads clear, and the flowers in bloom. It is a pleasant time for traveling. And because of the nature of the holiday — originally established on May 30. 1868. in honor of soldiers who died in the War Between the States, and later expanded to include those who died for their country in all wars — Memorial Dav has become not only an occasion to honor our patriot dead, but also a day to visit and decorate the graves of deceased loved ones and. for many, a traditional day for an annual family reunion. Because of all these things, the Memorial Day week end is a time when thousands upon thousands of Scholarships And Awards Given At John Glenn Hoosier State scholarship recipients announced at John Glenn High School's commencement Sunday. May 23 were: Karen Baughman. Nick Berkebile. Pat Cowger. Lisa Creed. Kari Cripe. Georgia Crum. Susan Daube. Ross Ecker. Ed Fenstermacher. Charles Gerber. Robert Gerber. Joni Germaine. Michael Graves. Steve Hartsell. Jackie Holm. Elizabeth Krick. Janis McGee. Donna Moore, Jenny More. Patty Reese, Kenneth Rohrer. Sue Rush. Teresa Sarber. John Sheaks and Nancy Yelton.

additional motor vehicles will be on the highways and byways. Millions of Americans will be attempting to travel, some for great distances. tending to leave early, return late, and drive in a hurry. It is not at all surprising, therefore, to learn from public safety officials that the Memorial Day week end is marred by one of the highest highway casualty rates in the year. If you plan to drive anywhere this Memorial Day week end, even a short distance from home, remember to drive with extra caution. Drive defensively, watching out for the other driver who may be overlyexhausted. or be too much in a hurry, or be preoccupied with matters which divert his attention from driving. Don't you become the occupant of a grave to be decorated with flowers next year on Memorial Day. pa Marjorie Filer Scholarship was awarded to Herald Hostetler 111 and the Tri Kappa Elizabeth Orcutt Specialty Schoo!
