What if LBJ Came To Call In Nappanee? Every time one reads the newthese days, it appears that some family in some part of the nation has experienced an unexpected personal call from the President ur a member of his family. This whole idea presents rather frightening thoughts. Suppose Lyn don or Lady Bird or Lynda Bird should dr o in on you without notice? Picture the scene. Dad has taken off his shirt and shoes and is watching the ball game. The kids are playing Monopoly in the living room. Mom has decided that this is a good evening to work on th-’ new drapes for the windows, and, in a spirit of. togetherness, has everything spread out in the living room mixed in with the Monopoly money. The doorbell rings. There’s an attractive young lady at the door Mom thinks it's the Avon lady, and the noise of the television makes it hard to understand her when she says she’s Lvnda Bird. Mom staLls her as long as she can at the door and becomes completely flustered whc-n she sees two more LBJ’s standing behind their daughter. What would you call to your spouse in such a situation? “Put on your shoes, dear. It’s the President?” The President’s falmily finally arc inside and places are found for them to sit by gathering a'l the drapes in a bundle and throwing them behind the door. Dad, who was in the middle of a tense 9th inning situation, was slow to react to the import of the unexpected visitors. He got his shoes on, but couldn't find his shirt. We’d hope that the President would start off the conversation. He might ask how things are. The condition of the living room might lead him to believe that this area is more distressed than he realizes. We'd hope too that the kids would rise to the occasion. If they were right in the midst of landing on Park Place with a hotel, they might have been a little difficult about responding to the order of shoving the whole Monopoly set quickly under the couch. The whole gist of this is real l ;, an open letter to LBJ. Please, sir, we’d be delighted if you come and call, but PLEASE give us a little warning. We know Lady Bird would ‘appreciate a little notice when we come to the White House. METZLER CONTEST Metzler’s Shoe Store sponsored a contest.

HOOSIER HOSPITALITY A Tennessee man, Harvey Woodall, who had been a “guest” in the Sullivan County jail for 12 days, was accused of imposing on his “host,” Sheriff Les Daves, and was given an additional 60 days room and board at the state penal farm. Woodall, of Baxter. Tenn., was first lodged in jail on charges of public intoxication and failure to display a license plate on his truck. Sheriff Daves said that within a few hours after release upon completion of his 12-day sentence Woodall returned to the jail, took a short length of garden hose, a power motor, some gasoline cans and a license plate from a car on a used car lot adjacent to the jail. He loaded the loot into his truck and tried to drive away, the sheriff said, but the sheriff had loosened some wires and the truck would not start. The sheriff again took Woodall into custody, this time on a petty larceny charge, and in court Woodall was given the penal farm sentence. The sheriff speculated that Woodall planned to use the hose to siphon gas from other cars on his return trip to Tennessee.
