Editorial-Wise Ola Ellis Will Be Missed Ola T. Ellis, highly respected West Walnut Street Road resident, passed away this week but he will be missed by his relatives and a vast circle of friends. Ola was a former Putnam County Recorder and a Justice of the Peace for 18 years in addition to his insurance business. He was a longtime member of the Odd Fellows Lodge and was acquainted with many people in the community. Always jovial in disposition he usually had a good atory to tell you and in our book he was one swell guy. He certainly will be remembered by yours truly. Some Thoughts At Random You know it is sometimes hard to concentrate when you sit down to a typewriter, but we have tried, and here are some thoughts at random on a Winter afternoon. Isn't South Viet Nam another Korea since American soldiers are being killed or wounded almost every day? We read that Indonesian President Sukarno has invited Red China’s Premier Chou to visit his country and be his guest. We would wager that they won’t have any kind words for the United States when they get together. Just wonder how much our taxes will be this year over the past year. The Atomic Energy Commission reports “significant progress’’ in development of nuclear warheads capable of penetrating enemy missile defenses. Take notice, Fidel Castro & Company! Russia has issued another warning against any new I’.S. intelligence flights over its territory stating that American high altitude aircraft “have no place in foreign skies.’’ We have received no complaints this week on freight trains blocking highway crossings. We can take the cold weather, but we'd just as soon let somebody else have the snow and ice. Don't forget to throw out some bread crumbs or other scraps for the birds while the ground is •ivered with a blanket of white. Sportswise. we don't think Indiana University fans will be expecting a miracle, but they will be hoping that Johnny Pont will have better than a .500 average with the Hoosier gridders come next football season. And sectional backetball tournament time is just a few short weeks away. “Hoosier Hysteria" will then start reaching its peak in Indiana, hotbed of the hardwood court game.
the contract by playing dummy's ate of clubs at the first trick. The best play at the second trick is the ace of hearts since South cannot afford to try a heart finesse. If the king of hearts happens to fall on the ace, South will have an easy time. The heart king does not fall, but South runs three spades safely to discard a diamond from his hand. Then he leads a heart to give up a trick to the king. The defenders can then get one club and one diamond. South would make an overtrick if he tried the heart finesse, but he would go down if the finesse lost. The best chance is to get rid of a diamond before allowing the defenders to get their two diamond tricks. DAILY QUESTION Partner opens with one notrump (16 to 18 points), and the next player passes. You hold: Spade 10 4 2, Heart 8 7, Diamond A K 10 9 3, Club K 5 4. What do you say? Answer: Bid three notrump. Since you have 10 points, the combined count should be 26 to 28 points in high cards. This should be enough for nine tricks at notrump but may not e enough for eleven tricks at diamonds.

Historical Society Hear Dr. Phillips The Putnam County Historical Society met January 27, at Torr’s. After dinner Mrs. Boatright opened the meeting and read a humorous poem entitled “Grandma 1965 Model.” After the business and announcements were made Dr. Manhart introduced the speaker, Dr. Clifton J. Phillips of
DePauw.
Plans are being made for publication of a five volume History of Indiana at the time of the Sequincentennial Celebration. Volume II which is to be on Indiana Politics is being written by Dr. Phillips, and it was from this his remarks were made. He began with the Election of 1868, the first election held after the Civil War. For a number of years Indiana was considered to be a pivotal State and became known as a State where elections could be bought easily. Until 1880 the Indiana election was held In j October prior to the National j Election, and often results of the Indiana Election was used as an indicator in predicting the National Election. Mention was made of a number of local Hoosiers prominent in politics both in Indiana and nationally. A number of DePauw men were in the Congress during the late 1800s and early 1900s. Dr. John Clark Ridpath was a gubernatorial candidate in 1896. George Langsdale, the Greencastle postmaster and editor of the Banner about 1878 sent phamplets to North Carolina urging the colonization of negroes. About 30 or 40 families came but the attempt was considered to be unsuccessful. As Indiana came more industrialized it had to be considered a Midwestern rather than a Western State. After some question and discussion the meeting was adjourned to meet again on Feb-
ruary 24.
Ban Record LONDON UPI — The British Broadcasting Corp. BBC has banned a record called “Landing of the Daleks” by a Birmingham beat group known as "The Earthlings.” The reason is because part of the disc contains a Morse code message spelling out SOS . . . SOS . . . Daleks have landed.” A BBC official said ships’ radio operators might think the message is genuine.
