t TIm Daily Bannar, Graancastla, Indiana Tuatday, January 25, 1966 State National Guard Part Of 'Select' Force

WASHINGTON UPI—Three. National Guard division*, including Indiana’s 38th, were reported near war strength for use in Viet Nam if necessary. The 83th Division has been undergoing extra training as part of a 150,000-man “select” civilian force. The National Guard said it had filled 97.3 per cent of the slots in its special forces, with all of these units now receiving the stepped up training. Secretary of State Dean Rusk hinted last week that a call-up may be made if the Communist North Vietnamese continue to ignore President Johnson’s peace overtures. Some Army sources expect the call-up toward the end of the year if the peace move fails. The “select” force was ordered last summer by Defense Sec-

retary Robert S. McNamara and consists mainly of three infantry divisions and six brigades, the equivalent of two more divisions. These troops are receiving weekend drills at the rate of 72 a year instead of the usual 48. Military sources said by next fall they could be combat ready within 30 days after being called up. The other divisions are the 28th, headquartered at Harrisburg, Pa., and the 47th at St. Paul, Minn. The independent brigades are the 29th at Honolulu; the 67th in Iowa and Nebraska; the 69th in Kansas and Missouri; and one brigade each from the 36th, 41st and 49th infantry divisions at San Antonio, Texas, Portland, Ore., and San Jose, Calif., respectively.

Georgia Fights Federal Court ATLANTA UPI—The SUte of Georgia contended Monday that a federal court has no Jurisdiction to overrule a legislature’s right to expel members. The argument came in a pretrial hearing on a suit by Negro Rep. Elect Julian Bond to force the Georgia House of RepresenUtives to seat him despite iU previous rejection of him. A three-judge federal panel hears argumenU on the suit Friday. SUte Atty. Gen. Arthur Bolton asked for dismissal of the suit on grounds the court lacked jurisdiction. He said the sUU “absolutely” denied Bond was expelled because of his race. Judge Griffin Bell of the U.S. 5th Circuit Court of Appeals then told Bond's attorney, Howard Moore, he would have to produce evidence that race was an issue or drop such reference from the case. Bolton said the legislature rejected the 26-year-old Negro, while seating nine other Negroes, because of his criticism of U. S. policy in Viet Nam and his sUUd admiration for the “courage** of persons who burn their draft cards. Bolton said that while Bond “may feel aggrieved by the refusal of the Georgia House to seat him., it is clear that none of his righU have been vio-

lated.”

McNamara Defends Missile Plan

WASHINGTON UPI — Defense Secretary Robert 8. McNamara goes before Congress today to defend the logic of his plan to give more weight to the missile as a defense weapon and less to the long range bomber. Listening to his argument will be a House armed services subcommittee which was opening hearings on the proposal. What McNamara has to justify is a plan he announced in December. He said thei^ that

between now and 1971 the nation’s fleet of 80 supersonic B58 bombers and 345 aging B52’s would be scrapped. To replace them, McNamara would build a defense force centering on an arsenal of missiles and 210 new FB111 aircraft. But some congressmen have said they don’t like the implications of the plan. They claim that the trend appears to be toward complete reliance on missiles, instead of both missiles

and bombers. McNamara spent most of last week and Monday morning testifying before two Senate committees on President Johnson’s $12.3 billion supplemental defense request for Viet Nam. He is due back before them next Tuesday. Monday afternoon the defense chief told a House-Senate economic subcommittee that some shortages were bound to occur for U.S. forces in South

Viet Nam. But he denied they were affecting combat operations. “Anyone who has had experience with large supply systems knows that somewhere, sometime, something will be lacking,” he said. He added that no matter how much is spent for defense, "someone in our far flung organization will be short some item at a particular time.”

—School Sites approximately two miles north of Bainbridge on a site called the McKee site on the east side of the Bainbridge-Roachdale road. The new Jr.-Sr. high school is planned for 31 teachers stations for a wiinimiiiw of 775 students to a maximum of 930 students. It is planned to be a comprehensive school with all special areas including a swimming pool as an alternate for technical reasons. With this in mind, the physical needs for this school corporation would be satisfactory for years to come under normal conditions, but if an unusual influx would occur, the buildings are planned to be expandable. Financing of the building program consists of several sources. First the school corporation has an 85c Cumulative Building Fund which started in 1965 bringing in approximately $120,000 yearly. On January 20, 1966, the school board adopted a resolution to sell $50,000 of General Obligation Bonds (School Bonds) to qualify for a $750,000 loan from the Indiana Common School Fund Building Commission. Also, on January 6, 1966, the school board accepted a commitment with School Buildings, Inc. for the balance of financial need. School Buildings, Inc. is a private financing company. This commitment was based on a study made for the School Board by Dr. Barr of Indiana University. It is the opinion of the board that the 85c Cumulative Building Fund will provide for the cost of the total building program depending on increase building cost and other factors. With the aims for better quality of education in the North Putnam Community School Corporation and the pressure by the State Department of Public Instruction to meet education standards and physical requirements it is the strongest desire of the North Putnam Community School Board for the people In this school corporation to give their fullest moral support for the program and encouraging expediency in all possibUities.

Cord of Thanks I would sincerely like to thank Drs. Wiseman, Schauwecker, Lett and Johnson, the nurses and nurse aids for their excellent care during my stay in the hospital. Also I would like to thank everyone who sent cards, flowers and gifts, and took the time to come visit me. It was all deeply appreciated. Mrs. Urie Huber

Recently the Thomases had led folk dances of many lands with each grade at Northeast Elementary School.
