NIPSCO natural gas costs Northern Indiana Public Service Company has been informed by three of its pipeline suppliers, Midwestern Gas Transmission Company, Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line Company and Trunkline Gas Company, of a combined annual increase totaling $17,150,124 in the cost of natural gas to NIPSCO, as a result of increased rates filed by those companies with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. To offset this increase, NIPSCO filed anew rate schedule with the Public Service Commission of Indiana in accordance with an order of the Commission issued December 11, 1970, authorizing gas distribution utilities in Indiana to recover such gas supply increases. The utility said that adjustments in gas rates to NIPSCO customers, usually upward and sometimes downward, have occurred and will continue to occur as the rates from NIPSCO’s pipeline suppliers change. Asa result of this latest increase, the average NIPSCO residential customer using gas for home heating will pay approximately 93 cents per month or $11.25 per year more for gas serving beginning in August. NIPSCO residential customers using gas for household purposes other than home heating will pay about 22 cents per month or $2.67 more per year. The effectiveness of the new rate schedule is subject to the approval of the Public Service Commission of Indiana. NIPSCO pointed out that it does not realize one cent of profit from these pipeline supply tracking adjustments. The money, the company emphasized, goes directly to suppliers to pay for the increased cost of natural gas delivered to the utility. "A Funny Thing. . .

The picture on the front page shows the dismay of Chad Hochstetler when he spotted this huge swarm of bees perched on the seat of his bike last Thursday afternoon. Ray Hochstetler, no relation to Chad, was called and used his knowledge of bees to locate the queen, and remove the swarm to one of his hives. And now, for that long-awaited bike ride for Chad!

Broadway production. The show’s credentials go back further than this Broadway success. Its plot and characters have been drawn from a half dozen plays by Plautus, the rowdiest gag writer in ancient Rome, whose slapstick comedies were seen in

The solution

200 B.C. Adaptation of these plays have been popular down through the centuries, written by such notables as Shakespeare, Moliere, Mack Sennett, Weber and Fields, the Marx Brothers, and many burlesque comedians. The plot of this Roman holiday is an 'unashamed medley of all the timehoHqred stock situations of farce: misußkui identities, masquerades, the an aging man still trying to be a Romeo, the desperate deceptions of a schemer always on the verge of being discovered. Authors Bert Shevelove and LarnyGelbart rifled nine grand old farcesmat convulsed ancient Romans, to make every minute of this modem distillation of tomfoolery outrageously funny. Scott Harlan makes his debut on the Wagon Wheel stage as Pseudolus, the clever servant. Some familiar faces to Wagon Wheel audiences include Tim Ewing as the swaggering braggart warrior Miles Gloriosis; Billy Bradford, remembered for his performance as Captain Brackett in “South Pacific” and Chief Brown Bear in “Little Mary Sunshine” will be seen as Marcus Lycus. Bill Schaeffer, last year’s Cable in “South Pacific,” will appear as Hero, the romantic young man eager to marry the beatufiful Phfiia (played by Diana Szlosberg, who was Gwendolyn Pigeon in “The Odd Couple). Jimmy Bohr is the director of this rib-tickler, whose chief chore is to space its laughs for the sake of the audience’s safety. Ticket information for “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum” may be obtained by calling (219) 267-8041. A special matinee performance will occur on Sunday, Julv flth, at 2-00 n m
