Three physically handicapped children, who had attended Camp Koch, in Troy, and Mrs. Theoline Bee, Putnam County Health Nurse, were luncheon guests of the Greencastle Rotary Club this week. The youngsters were Kathy Norris, city; Art Witt. Roachdale. and Suzy Robinson. Fillmore. Each gave an inspiring short talk on his experiences during the two weeks at Camp Koch and showed some of their craft work and awards and souvenirs. Ralph Working. Administrative Assistant of the Indiana Society for Crippled Children, showed color slides and gave descriptive commentary of the activities, history and growth of Camp Koch. Camp Koch. located at Troy, three miles from Tell City, overlooking the Ohio River, is sponsored by the annual Easter Seal Campaign. Camp Koch has shown phenominal growth in 14 years. The Putnam County Chapter of ‘He Society for Crippled Children, has sponsored children for the last three years— one child the 'irst year, nine the second year and eighteen children this year.

THE GOOD OLD DAYS (Continued from last week) ‘•In spite of all this we finally came to Putnamville, which, you may have learned, is on the National road. What? No?” he made a gesture of mock surprise. “Oh, yes, you haven’t yet been to Putnamville. When you pass through that settlement, if you stop long enough, you will hear just such laments as I did over the stupidity of justice and a college in a town that is not on the National road. My innkeeper informed me that there was no stage to Greencastle. and that my only way of getting there would be to wait till Sunday, when, for the sum of $2, he would convey me and my trunk thither in his tw*o-horse wood wagon. and wait I did. And while 1 waited, I heard again and again, the lament over the stupidity of people who would locate a college off the National road, in such an out-of-the-way town as Greencastle. which would never amount to anything anyway, being off the National road, whereas Putnamville has all the advantages and stilled his laments with my $2." I had not laughed so much since the day that Mr. Shirk and I sat on our horses outside the country church and conjured up a vision of the early settlers. There is something most humorous about this Goodwin, and and anything he tells he knows how to invest with interest. He has, too, a most convinving manner. We had by now, come within the high board fence which incloses the college grounds, and beheld the campus, on which there is little shrubbery, only a few r locusts and other forest trees. The building I viewed with much interest. It is constructed of brick, with a hall through the middle, recitation rooms on either side, and a chapel in the rear, with an elevated platform. Recitation rooms are on the second floor; on the third, museums, the library and the meeting rooms for the two literary societies, concerning which, T inquired with some interest.

LBJ, N. Y. Mayor Hold Conference WASHINGTON UPI —President Johnson confers with New York Mayor Robert F. Wagner today with the main topic of discussions expected to be the recent Negro riots in Harlem and Brooklyn. The New York mayor and his two teen-age sons, Robert Jr. and Duncan, were to be weekend guests at the executive mansion, arriving today and spending the night before returning home Sunday. It was understood the visit was to be partly social in nature, but the racial and economic problems of the nation's largest city were apparently high on the list of subjects Johnson and Wagner would cover in their talks.

Highway Will Be

43 South Resurfaced

Cloverdale residents

Putnam County motorists, rejoice! Delbert Hobson. Maintenance Engineer of the Crawfordsville District of the State Highway Department, has announced that State Road 43 from Cloverdale to S. R 67

has been completed.

He also stated that S. R. 43 from Cloverdale to U.S. 40 would be- temporarily resur-

and faced before the coming fall.

Mr. Hobson asserted that the planned relocation of the highway prevents any permanent resurfacing plans from being committed. The attenmpted temporary resurfacing hinges mainly on the allocation of funds, materials and equipment before the project can be begun.

A change in time of the Sunday morning worship hour has been announced by the Sherwood Christian Church for the month of August. Beginning August 2 morning worship will he held at 9:00 a.m. and will be folowed by Church School from

10:00-11:00 a.m.

The minister, Elgin T. Smith, will preach the first three Sundays of the month and guest ministers will serve on August 23 and August 30. Church School classes are for all ages and classes for pre-school children will be held during the

worship hour.

Every customer ot the munipal water utility will share in the reduction, although not all at the 25 per cent average decrease. Annual revenue for the utility will be reduced a total of $33,000. The minimum charge will drop from the present $2 to

$1.50.

Chairman Merton Stanley of the PSC said the utility voluntarily requested the reduction in rates and said the financial situation of the utility justified the reduction.

Edwards To Attend School of Banking

More State Troopers To Be Wanted In 1965

INDIANAPOLIS UPI —The Indiana State Police will ask the 1965 Legislature for 150 additional troopers. Supt. George Everett said the vehicle registration in Indiana will have increased by 80 per cent in 1968 over the 1950 level. During the same period, the number of licensed drivers will be up 119 per cent, he said, and the number of miles traveled 92 per cent. “The trend toward suburban living has created an additional responsibility for law enforcement in the rural areas,” Everett wrote in a report filed with

the Indiana Budget Agency. “Many towns and villages have no law enforcement of any kind,” he said. "These people also commute to the larger cities for employment, which results in increased travel.” He said also that during the next 4 to 6 years 700 miles of interstate highways will be built and in use in Indiana. “Due to the fact that these highways are limited access and are in remote areas, it will be necessary’ to provide 24-hour-a-day coverage,” Everett said.

Though they ended fears that the lunar surface would be coated with layers of dusts that would impede a landing, the photographs posed a new’ problem by revealing the “secondary” craters, some of which were as small as three feet across and one-half foot deep. Dr. Kmper said the craters, apparently formed by particles spewing from the larger or “primary” craters, would be “poison” to space vehicles. “We found a remarkable cluster of these very small craters," he said. “They have dangerous rounded crests into which a whole spacecraft might slip. It's a badly battered region that should be avoided like poison.” While some areas of the region still seemed suitable for landing, scientists indicated they would attempt to find more suitable terrain with future studies, including one of
