Officer Forrest Rupe, Self Defense Instructor for the Speedway Police Department, has advance Lt. Dave Wilson of the Speedway Police Department and Sergeant Frank Love of the Indiana State Police to the rank of First Degree Black Belt on April 9 after two and one half years of extensive training. Officer Rupe, who presently holds a Second Degree Black Belt rating in the Martial Art of Karate, is assisted by Mr. Larry Stout, a local business man, also a Second Degree Black Belt. Other promotions include Charles Hodges, a Police Honor Two Chiefs Chief of Police, Robert L. Operand, and former Chief, Lieutenant Milton Ellis, were guests of honor at a dinner sponsored by the Jaycees April 8, 1970. Chief Copeland and Lt.

medical student, who was promoted to Fifth Degree Green Belt, and Randy Love, who was promoted to Fifth Degree Yellow Belt in the Junior Division. Three years ago Officer Rupe after realizing a need for specialized self-defense training in the field of law enforcement, began instructing fellow Police Officers. Since then, he and Mr. Stout have instructed many Police Officers from various departments and have performed demonstrations throughout the State. Karate enables an Officer to be better equipped to cope with dangerous situations that may face a Police Officer in the performance of his duty. It not only affords protection from a physical standpoint, but also assists in the development of a proper mental attitude, self esteem, professionalism, and a high regard for our fellowmen, thus providing better service to the public he serves.

An Editorial

Reject Contract The decision by the Indianapolis Police Department and Sheriff Lee Eads of the Marion County Sheriff’s Office to charge the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, under contract, for the use of policemen and equipment at the Speedway is absurd. The law enforcement agencies of the city and county are expected to present a contract to 500 officials later this week requesting SIOO per hour for each fire truck and four firemen and $5.00 an hour for each police unit, consisting of one officer and his car. Sheriff Lee Eads evidently hasn’t been receiving the correct amount of complimentary tickets for the 500 and therefore states his officers will not enter the Motor Speedway on race or qualify cation days. It seems that the city and county have forgotten the prestige and revenue brought to the city of Indianapolis as a result of the “Greatest Spectacle in Racing.” The SPEEDWAY FLYER-JOURNAL urges Speedway officials to reject any contract offers received for police and fire personnel services. The demands are much too high, as well as totally

unnecessary.

Fire Trend Shows Rise The trend in total United States fire losses in dollars shows increases since World War n. The largest factor in the general upward trend is inflation, or the decrease in the value of the dollar. While more than a billion dollars per year is being lost through fire it must be concluded that in relation to what there is to burn a smaller proportion is going up inflames. In other words, in view of the known increase in total property values in recent years, the trend in total loss is downward. While no single factor can be given all the credit, it may be explained in part by the vastly improved fire-fighting techniques and equipment, and the increasing attention many fire departments have been devoting to fire prevention activities, the training of firemen, and salvage work. Other factors in the decreasing fire loss have been increased effectiveness in controlling arson fires, an increase in fire resistive construction, and the adoption and inforcement by many localities of laws and ordinances designed to control fire hazards. The National Fire Protection Association estimates loss of life from fire in the United States at 11,800 deaths annually. Nonfatal burn injuries total about 2,000,000 a year.

Notes From The Publisher Jim O’Neal, Jr.

Today marks the start of our company’s publishing venture into the community of Speedway, Indiana. It signifies the culmination of months of planning and negotiations in preparation to this event. Since my beginning in the newspaper business in 1967 in Carmel, our company has considered the possibility of operating a paper in Speedway. The Speedway Flyer addition marks the fifth paper published by O’Neal Suburban Journal Corporation. Our firm comes here for two basic reasons. Number one is the friendly people and mood which has always been prevalent in Speedway and the other is that all my relatives, with the exception of my father’s family reside in Speedway. Bill and Alice Anderson, who have owned the Speedway Flyer for the past several years enjoy a reputation which is a tribute for anyone in the publishing business or business in general. The decision for the Andersons to sell the paper, which has been like a member of the family to them, was not an easy one for them to make, I am sure. The respect which they have earned, the reputation for a fair minded community newspaper and their dedication to Speedway is a quality which this new ownership respects and intends to honor. During the coming months, several changes will take place in regards to the general appearance and content of this Speedway Flyer-Journal. The paper will develope a society section, asports section, a picture page and a news oriented front page. The news and advertising office at the corner of 15th and Main Streets will be open daily from 8:30 until 5:00 and on Saturdays from 9:00 to 4:00. The telephone number at the paper is 2479701 and everyone is welcome to visit the paper or drop off news items. We look forward to our association with Speedway and hope that the Speed-way-Flyer-Journal will be a welcome visitor in your home every Thursday afternoon.

Speedway Coin Shop Bobbed Last Monday

Leßoy Browning, 42, owner and operator of the Speedway Coin Shop, was beaten and robbed early Monday morning of rare coins and currency valued between SIO,OOO and $25,000. Browning reported that a man in his early thirties entered the shop at 8:15 a.m. and stuck a gun against his neck ordering Browning to turn over his billfold and open the safe containing the valuable coins. Browing said that he was then struck on the neck and locked into the restroom of the build-

ing business in Speedway. The Andersons began publishing the Speedway Flyer in 1931. However, it was Rev. Howard Anderson, minister of the Speedway Christian Church and brother of Bill Anderson who started the paper. Bill took over the Flyer in 1945 when Rev. Anderson and his family moved to Bloomington. Deadlines under the new management will be Wednesday at 12:00 noon for news and advertising. This gives readers

Browning told police investigators that he heard a second man in the shop after he had been locked in the restroom. Police said that the bandit’s description matches that of a man who robbed Kelly’s Pastime Hobby Shop on East New York Street after beating the owner. Browning described the bandit as white, in his 30*s, about five feet - eight inches tall and wearing a dark coat. Police are still investigating the case at this time.
