to the EDITOR
To the Editor: Having sat back for some time, and saw article after article appear in your paper about the recreation facilities in the City of Greencastle — seeing many different groups praised for what they have done or are going to do, I decided it was time that a group who has been practically ignored as to praise and help should be brought to the attention of your readers. The group I am talking about is Little League, in which at the present time, there are some 210 boys participating, which takes at least 14 managers and from 14 to 28 coaches, not counting umpires, league officers, and the parents organization—which is all voluntary. Nobody draws a salary for anything, yet this is one of the suppressed and unrecognized groups in town. When the schedule for recreation is put in the paper, very seldom is anything mentioned about Little League games. Well, all I have to say Is come out to the Little League park, on North Arlington Street, behind the National Guard Armory, and see what is going on. You will see some mighty good ball games—two •: about every night. Little gue had nothing to do with .uis letter being written. I took this upon myself to see that a mighty fine organization might get a little recognition. Ronald Summers, 1024 Avenue B, Greencastle

Dear Heloise: I don’t ever throw away a pretty dusting powder container. After the powder is gone, the container can be used for storing bobby pins, small curlers, buttons and oodles of things. Mrs. A. Cybruck • * • • Dear Heloise: I sew ties (bias tape or cord) about 12” long to the edges of old bedspreads so we can take them on camping trips. We use them for shade, tablecloths, dressing room, or hanging walls. I sew the tapes on all comers and at about two to three foot intervals. I make the comer ties longer. Usually there is something you can tie it to and it serves a lot of uses. Flora Young
