NAPPANEE ADVANCE-NEWS

LETTERS % Editor, Nappanee Advance-News: Two points of clarification regarding my appearance at the December 26 meeting of the WaNee School Board as reported in the December 29 issue of The Advance-News: First of all, I am not a member of the organized Wa-Nee Citizens group, and spoke only as an interested taxpayer and parent of four Wa-Nee students. Secondly, I questioned whether the board had taken any action in their November 28 meeting that “condoned any further action.” Dr. Abel wanted to take in a possible libel suit against Ralph Bell and the Citizens Committee as reported in the December 1 Advance-News. The minutes as read included, “He (Dr. Abel) stated that it was a personal matter and he would not involve the board in any action he might take.” No minutes was recorded that condoned any action he wanted to take. This answered my question. Thanks again for the opportunity to express ourselves in the “Readers Write” section. Sincerely ' Everett Mishler Congratulations are in order for 10 boys and three or *more men. Our basketball team and coaching staff, of course. I want you boys to know I don’t believe any one of your mothers wrote or feels the way the letter read in last weeks paper. Although there is a lot of good in the fore part of the letter you boys know your own mothers the best of us all. Every one of you boys play as hard ds you can, maybe one night will be better than another night, but your doing your best and the coaches have faith in you or you wouldn’t be in there playing. I know I see things I can’t understand the whys or wherefores, but then I’m not out there playing and I know you are doing as you have been instructed to do or as near as possible. I am extremely proud of you boys so please see that my prayers are answered, “That your success doesn’t make your hat too small. And you will still remain the nice, jolly, happy gentlemen you are now.”

I wish you could go on winning but if you come out on the losing end, we will still love you and be as proud of you. It’s as how you played your game that really counts in the end, to the head coach above. Another Interested Mother t i ■ ■ -m ■ ■ ■ ■ i t I Strictly Personal D.E.N. The most popular Christmas present was a game. It's called "Twister." It's a sheet with various colored dots on it. A spinner then instructs everyone to put foot or hand on one of the dots. You can get into some wild positions. The whole family plays. ★ ★ ★ Congressman Adair stopped in last week. Since then, his attractive wife had surgery. Reported to be doing fine. ★ ★ ★ Received a nice brotherly letter from the college fraternity. Said that the dear old chapter house needed anew furnace, new remodeling of the kitchen, ‘ etc., etc. Remembered indignately that that was all done when we were in school, only to realize that that was twenty five years ago. ★ ★ ★ We loved the Candid Camera show recently when at a restaurant a gal with a terrible voice sang "Tiptoe through the Tulips." Then a customer was charged a dime for his coffee and 2 dollars for entertainment tax. The customer really burned, especially when the girl did an encore of "My Buddy." ROTARY PROGRAMS Richard Best, Councilman, spoke to the Nappanee Rotary Club last week and explained some of the phases of the water expansion program now underway in Nappanee. ® > . The week before, Dan Metzler told of his early years in Nappanee and of the beginning of Metzler Shoe Company. Wendell Metzler also added to the program with accounts of the shoe business. The Rotary ladies night was Wednesday (last night).
