Religion promoted too at Indiana State Fair

By WILLA THOMAS Usually thought of a funfilled festivities, competition, shows and exhibits, the giant Indiana State Fair had serious tones also as far as religion is concerned. Several displays and tents were dedicated solely to distributing tracts, Bibles and other material of the holy vein. Maybe most noticeable was the tremendous effort of the Bell Bible Church with its huge tent. Main Street passersby could catch Pastor James Gardner and followers cheerfully greeting them as they handed out literature. Many persons stopping made remarks about enthusiasm shown by children in the act. Some 200 persons expressed a desire to join the church. Entering the Senior Citizens Building, one could see sections manned by the Indiana Council of Churches and the American Bible Society. ICC didn’t limit its activity to distributing, but also welcomed donations for its CROP program, a worldwide service providing food for various nations hungry. Unfortunately, one group’s presence was embroiled in

controversy resulting in court action. It took an injunction by Federal Judge William E. Steckler to allow Hare Krishna followers to continue passing our flowers and solicit donations. The Fair Board cited com plaints from people that the group was not manning a booth, but “roaming” the grounds and “harassing people.” The group countercnargea their books were reglarly being dumped in trash containers by workers. It might seem a little premature, but you could’ve done lots of Christmas shopping. There was an assortment of “giftable" merchandise, some novel, some practical and some traditional. They ranged from knick knacks to quilts and even furnishings. If soul food suits your taste. Rev. C.V. Jeter and staffs concession would’ve been your shot. Home-style cooking and friendly service made it one of the more popular stands. And the “silver set" was in it like never before with daily talent shows featuring over 60 performers. Church services were also a part of Operation Late Start’s participation.

Prosecution for hiring bias to follow studies WASHINGTON--Prosecution will face private or public employers who technically violate equal employment statutes only after their hiring practices are studied, the federal government announced recently . Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) Chairperson Eleanor Holmes Norton said the government will not make a practice of prosecuting those employers who have successfully hired and promoted minorities and women, although their selection proceed ures might not have been totally validated. Miss Norton’s assistant, A1 Blumrosen, says the guidelines were not affected by the Supreme Court’s June 28 ruling in the Allen Bakke reverse discrimination case, but, EEOC spokesmen said were designed to streamline the enforcement and administration of equal employment laws. They also replace competing sets of hiring regulations administered separately by EEOC and the Justice Department.

Ex-Army copter pilot assigned wings for United's 'Skylines’

This was the announcement made recently by State Representative Merwyn Fisher (DPekin) after an ad hoc committee session. “The ad hoc committee has presented me with 10 specific recommendations,” Rep. Fisher said. “These will be discussed by the whole Day Care Subcommittee before they are presented to the Human Services Interim Study Committee. I am releasing these recommendations today in or-

er Army helicopter pilot in the Vietnam W’ar, now is flying in the friendly skies for United Airlines. Carpenter, of Edwardsville, Illinois, graduated this month from United’s Flight Training Center at Denver, and has been assigned as a second officer (flight engineer) in the Douglas DC-8. He is based at Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport.

Having completed about 3,000 flight hours, (most of them in the Army’s UH-1 “Huey” combat helicopter), Carpenter learned to fly in 1964 while attending Edwardsville High School, from which he was graduated in 1966. He served in the Army from 1968 through 1970 and flew combat missions in South Vietnam for 15

This would eliminate what Fisher describes as “bureaucratic waste," reflected in the fact currently at least three organizations handle such tasks. With more mothers working today, day care centers have sprung up at an alarming rate throughout Indiana and officials estimate at least half of them are not licensed. Also questioned during the meeting was whethter or not there should be government control over the number of them.

In 1975 he started to instruct civilian student pilots at the Cahokia, Illinois airport and continued this work until he was hired by United Airlines last June. A member of the Army Reserve, flying the UH-1 for a unit based at Scott Air Force Base, Belleville, Illinois, Carpenter and his wife, Adele, have two children.
