Courts Busy Again

The court rooms are beginning to bustle with their regular fall activity. Criminal Court already has had a murder case. Circuit. Court is now in the midst of a jury trial damage suit. Day by day, the five Superior Courts see unhappy wives and husbands whose only solution is divorce. Most of the. divorces are uncontested, but occasionally a contested suit brings fireworks.

of 857 Thopmson Road if she would |

ing Thompson road east of Madi- |

son Ave. with blacktop. Mrs. Arndt was one of [a group lof Thompson Road residents who presented a petition to the commis|sioners yesterday asking that the road be paved. | Mrs. William H. ‘Myers of 917 Thompson Road said 'she had been on a similar mission before the commissioners four years before, Mr. Newhouse |was saying that there were a number of roads in the county similarly situated to Thompson Road| and that the County just didn't have the money to do all the jobs at once, when Mrs. Arndt interrupted. “Mr. Newhouse,” she said,” “you just have never seen a road like this cne. There's dust everywhere. I'd like to have you out to dinner so you could see the dust for yourself.” “I appreciate the. invitation,” Mr. Newhouse replied.| “I'd like to have you see our side of it here, too.
