School Is Held ; To Train 4-Hers

In spite of rather blustery

weather and competition from I school activities all over the j county, approximately 175 4-H ' boys and girls, officers of thefr local 4-H clubs, converged on ; Greencastle Wednesday night for j

an officer training school.

Joe Friend, county junior lead- 1 cr president, called the meeting to order and presided during the opening portion of the program. Doretta Harris, co-president, was j

in charge of registration.

Thirty-five minute classes | were held to train officers in ^ their duties. James Risk, 4-H adult leader from Franklin town- I ship, instructed the presidents of | all clubs. Mrs. Berniece Stew- j ard, Monroe township 4-H leader handled the vice presidents. Mrs. Earl Allen, extension office secletary, presented the lesson for the club secretaries and treasurers. Don Tourtelot was instructor for news reporters. Mrs. Ivan Harbison, Clinton township 4-H leader, for health and safety leaders. Carl Strain directed the song leader group and Dick Friend served as instructor for

recreation leaders.

While the classes were in session, county junior leader officers met with Kenneth Harris for an executive business session and 4-H adult leaders met with Mildred Cassady for a short busi-

ness meeting.

After classes everyone went to the gym for a group recreation and refreshment period, supervised by Dick Friend and the county recreation leaders. The final activity was the awarding of gift certificates to all 4-H clubs who had 100 per cent of their officers present for the training session. Clubs winning the awards were the Willing Workers of Clinton township, Waneta Wysong president; Jefferson Hog Herders, Larry Salsman president; Busy Belles of Jefferson township, Sharon Sinclair president; Busy Daisies of Floyd township, Patty Bassett president; Burnt Biscuit Club of Russell township, Don Reddish president; Madison Township Boy's Club, Steve Sutherlin president; Winsome Workers of Monroe township, Barbara Luther president; Fillmore Farmers, Neil Irwin president; Greencastle Junior 4-H Club, Stephen Akers president; Greencastle Senior Boys Club, John Aker

—STATE C. OF C. uvelihood,” he added. Legislative leaders of the recently adjourned Indiana Genera] Assembly were among the guests at the meeting, and they are scheduled to appear on Saturday’s program to present their views on 1957 legislation and or. state governmental problems that lie ahead. Jack E. Reich, executive vicepresident of the state chamber, commended members of the 1957 General Assembly for their “courage in facing the difficult and controversial issues." "The outstanding example of this attitude.” he said, “was provided in the votes on the right-to-work bill when every member able to be in the chambers answered the roll calls.” National governmental questions, particularly in the field of federal spending and taxation were scheduled for discussion late today by Congressman Earl Wilson of Bedford, a member of the House Appropriations Committee. Frank McAlister, director of the Chamber’s transportation department and the first of a series of chamber staff members to report on 1957 legislation, said at today’s meeting that state laws should be passed at the next legislative session to require improvements in administration of county roads. County highway departments are now receiving some 30 million dollars a year in state-collected funds while official surveys have shown administrative practices to be inefficient and wasteful in many county departments, AIcAllister said. —DIXIE STATES Blowing snow lashed by gusts up to 60 miles per hour stranded travellers in Wyoming and Colorado. Up to four feet of snow burried the mountain states area earlier in the week, A United Press survey showed at least 36 persons killed and nearly 1,000 injured in 11 states due to the storm that began Tuesday with tornadoes in Texas and the Rocky Mountain bliz-

zard.

Tornadoes killed 17 persons, 11 in Texas, five in Oklahoma and one in Alississippi. The blizzard was blamed for five fatalities in Colorado, two in Nebraska and one each in South Dakota and Utah. Other weather deaths included three in Indiana, two each in Mississippi and Illinois and one each in Iowa and Wisconsin. The blizzard buried Phillip, S. D., under 22 inches of snow as it swept eastward Thursday. Weathermen warned up to 15 inches of snow may be expected today in parts of Aliimesota and somewhat lesser amounts in northern Wisconsin and upper Michigan. Two twisters swirled over tor-nado-wary Texas Thursday, while in the West, most highways in the eastera plains area of Colorado still were closed by snow and blowing dust.
