ENDORSE GEORGE CRAIG

Religious Leaders Approve His Stand

Noland Wright, manager of the Craig-for-Governor WWaign. gave out statements about George N. Craig, Republican candidate for Governor, made by leaders of three great religious faiths. Their remarks are published in a pamphlet which contains also the reprint of an article entitled “Something to Remember,” written by Craig for the May, 1950, issue of the American Legion Magazine. The article brought out that in the final showdown of combat, mon learned it was “not a man’s color, place of birth or church affiliation

that counts, but only his personal merit” The statements about Craig follow: Daniel A. Poling, editor of the Christian Herald, Philadelphia, Pa., a nationally known Protestant churchman: “I have known George Craig in war and peace. He has served his country and his fellow Americans without prejudice and without fear. He denounces any discrimination based upon race, color or faith. By ability and training, by courage, character, and experience, as no other man I know he qualifies to be Governor of Indiana.” Rev. Father Edward J. Carney, 0.5.A., of Lawrence, Mass., Past National Chaplain of the Ameri-

PAST MATRON’S MEETING The Past Matron’s club met at the home of Margaret Freeman, Oct. ‘7th, with Rebecca Kitson cohostess. Fourteen were present. A “beauty contest” was held with the prizes going to Birdella Pfingst. Effie Emerson won the “judging” contest prize.

SYRACUSE- WAWASEE JOURNAL, Syracuse, Ind.

A—- — can Legion: “It would be difficult to find an American who is more i conscious than is George Craig of , the dignity of the individual, regardless of race, creed or ancestry. I know of no one more dedicated to the principles of mutual rei spect and understanding of hie • fellowman.” Rabbi David Leftowitz, Jr., I Shreveport, La., Fast National Chaplain of the American Legion: , “I am happy to give testimonial , to the thoroughgoing Americanism of a man whom I am proud to call my friend. His broad sympathy , and understanding of every race ; and creed is a quality that should > endear him to every man.”

A contest of superstitions and goblin wills followed. Esther Weaver won the contest. Following a Hallowe’en story, sandwiches, doughnuts and coffee were served. A pot luck supper is next on the program. Party to begin at 6:30 at Olive Miller’s with Ruth Rapp, cfc-hostess.

SARA-CUSE SAYS I i The cities have ‘lotsa’ parades, but the one staged here Friday night by the Syracuse Fire Department, with the help of nearby towns, stirred many a heart to pride in our own Fire Department, and gratitude for outside help. I A person was heard to say that the Friday night parade was momentarily forgotten until heard the roll of drums, and then did a quickie-marathon to Main Street to ‘catch up’. The various floats and hands, I tSid the program at the Athletic Field, were attractive and must ■ surely have done their work po- i tently — namely: caught the pub-! lie’s attention, and then educated “John Q.” on Fire Prevention. ■ At Madison, Ind., on Saturday, J some persons witnessed boat races of the American Power Boat association on the Ohio Riv-, er. Aside from tense interest in f the many hard-fought races in I the different classes, the whole set-up was especially picturesque, j as seen higher up on the river bank slope, for the whole course was in view at that point, from the Madison Bridge to down river. before the first bend. Down at river’s edge, an overenthusiastic helper stepped out too far, and had to wring out his pants cuffs and many pit workers and on-lookers nearly got wet from staring down-river for the first turn, oblivious of water so close. Tied to a long wide pier, upriver toward the bridge, were sev- ( eral boats which were interesting to see. after attaining permission to go aboard the pier. There was the “Estelita,” on old, old cruiser but still seaworthy, and according to hearsay, a Florida-going craft. Top deck was a delightful vantage point to see far up and down the river, and also held glass enclosed quarters for navigators. I The lower deck was evidently for sleeping. Other boats were Gypsy 11, Skippy, river patrol boats, two navy boats with sailor pilots and a houseboat, Jim-61H, which was just too interesting — conjuring up dreams of “floating down the river’’ to New Orleans, the Mississippi, etc. The pier “scooted off” several sightseers, when it became active on account of many racing boats ( trying their speed and one person

I A large Ohio River Sand Company barge gave added interest to the over-all picturesque scene, before start of racing, heading up i river, empty, and returning after races were over, loaded high with its product—sand. ;PAPAKEECHE LAKE | Mr. and Mrs. Leo Kowallik had week end guests from Phoenix- ; ville, Pa. They were Mrs. Koi wallik’s sister, Mrs. Hubert Feasel, Pvt. Hubert Feasel, and Dickie. Mrs. Kowallik’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Sam Trump of Go--1 shen, were Sunday guests. Harry Burson is ill at the Wolf Lake hospital. I Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Burson and ' Ruth Ann, of Ft. Wayne, were week end guests of Mrs. Harry Burson, leaving on Tuesday. Mrs. Merle Line expects her aunt, Mrs. Morris Feaster, this week for a short visit. Mrs. Feaster’s son, the Rev. Virgil Feaster, is bringing her from Pennsylvania on their way to California. Mrs. Harley Wallace has returned from a week’s stay, caring for her son, Mr. Fred Vogt, i who was ill at his home in Jackson, Mich. Mr. and Mrs. Wallace , received word Monday about Harley’s sister-in-law, Mrs. Milford Wallace of Ft. Wayne, who had been ill in Bluffton hospital. Mrs. M. Wallace just had a terrible accident (in addition to her illness) of a fall which turned her foot in such away as to break it. The Harley Wallace’s are leaving soon for Bluffton.
