Kennedy expected to file in state

By HORTENSE MYERS INDIANAPOLIS (UPI)-Seii. Robert F. Kennedy, apparently taking an 8-year-old cue from his late brother, appeared ready to file his entry in Indiana’s May 7 presidential primary in person tonight. The Indiana Kennedy for President forces said the New York Democrat will arrive tonight at Weir-Cook Airport and proceed downtown “to the state capitol or somewhere” after a brief airport speech. The only office open in the Statehouse at the probable hour of Kennedy’s arrival will be that of Secretary of State Edgar Whitcomb. It will be open because of the midnight deadline tonight for filing in the May 7 primary. In 1960, John Kennedy, then a senator, walked into the same office to file his entry into the presidential preference primary, and met an opposing delegation of Baptist ministers, with whose leaders he shook hands. He had no serious opposition in the Democratic Indiana primary. But Robert Kennedy faces a rugged fight from President Johnson through Governor Branigin as proxy, and from

In Memory of Jean Coffman, who passed away five years ago today, March 28th. There is a place that is wonderously fair In God’s garden way up there He took your hand, Jean, and said come rest It hurt us so, but He knows best We miss you more as days go by And some days we sit and cry We know you’re happy in His care And hope some day we’ll be there We’ll walk in His garden filled with love In His beautiful heaven up above. Sadly missed by Mother, Carl, Sisters and families.

Kennedy campaigned Wednesday in Utah and was scheduled to arrive in Denver this morning.

Spring has arrived

In memoriam In memory of Jean Coffman, who passed away five years ago today, March 28th. It’s been five years ago, dear Jean Since God called you away. Sometimes it seems forever Other times - a day. I miss your smile Your sweet, sweet face, No one could ever take your place. I know you’re happy in His care, And hope some day to be there. What a reunion that will be To walk together, you and me. Sadly missed by sister, Freda.

By United Press International The snowline in the United States has retreated close to the Canadian border and ocean and gulf air spread over most of the nation today—a sure indication spring is here. The lowest temperature in the nation at 2 a.m. EST today was only 5 degrees below freezing, at Montpelier, Vt. The only skies in the country not dry Wednesday were over the upper Great Lakes, the far Northwest and the southern plains, ranging from rain to a few sprinkles. The overall mildness for the season has brought about an early spring thaw, but the relative mildness of the winter past apparently has staved off the more serious flooding. Pacific Ocean air spread as far as the midwest today, Gulf of Mexico air dominated the southern states and Atlantic Ocean air covered the East and Northeast. Chicago and Detroit each enjoyed its hottest day of 1968, a 75 at Chicago and 7 at Detroit.

Drowmngs reported in state

Sen. Eugene McCarthy, DMinn., both of whose petitions are scheduled to be filed today, but not in person by the candidates. The Kennedy and McCarthy backers in Indiana both experienced some delay in getting their petitions certified by county clerks under revised presidential preference law, which requires at least 500 certified signatures of voters in each congressional district. Even the Republicans, who had the first filing in this campaign Wednesday afternoon on behalf of former Vice President Richard M. Nixon, were critical of the law. When the Nixon petitions were filed with the secretary of state, Gordon Durnil, executive secretary of the Nixon for President Committee, termed the statute “a ridiculous law. We are the hardest state in the union to get a candidate into.” Durnil said the two groups backing Nixon obtained at least 30,000 signatures but only attempted to get about 10,000 of them certified because of the extra burden on county clerks who must do the certifying. If Kennedy enters the Indiana primary, it will be his first major test against Johnson and McCarthy.

By United Press International The warm spring weather in Indiana this week contributed to several drownings as Hoosiers took to the out-of-doors. The bodies of two young vietims were recovered Wednesday and a search continued for a third victim. Vanderburgh County author!ties recovered the body Wednesday of Gary Lyon, 15, Evansville, about 40 feet from where he disappeared while wading in the Ohio River Tuesday with two companions. The other two boys were rescued. Rescue workers at Indianapolis recovered the body of Kevin Quarles, 8, Wednesday afternoon from the Indianapolis Water Co. Canal. The victim’s brother, Emery, 10, told authorities Kevin jumped from a railroad trestle in an attempt to reach a steel span and fell into the canal on his way to school Wednesday morning. A search continued Thursday at Marion for the body of Gary Clark, 21, Marion, who is believed to have drowned in the Mississinewa River. Clark and Paul Hillsamer, 18, Marion, were tossed into the river Tuesday night when their kayak overturned about a mile southeast of Marion. Hillsamer was found on the river bank in shock more than two hours later.

WARSAW (UPI) — Warsaw University students threatened new demonstrations today to protest Communist government policies, defying warnings the school will be closed if disorder continues, informed sources said. The students hoped to organize a delegation to negotiate with university authorities, the sources said. The university rector, Stanislaw Turski, signed a warning saying he would close the university If the students kept up their illegal meetings. The warning was read to all classes Tuesday and Wednesday, the sources said. Students began demonstrating March 8 in protest of the government’s closing of a traditional play by a Polish playright. The students contended the government closed the production because anti-Russian lines got too much applause. The protests later broadened to other Polish Communist policies. Students of Warsaw University and Polytechnic University held sit-in strikes last weekend to try to get answers to student demands for greater freedom. The demands have been widely discussed in the govern-ment-controlled press but none has been met. One newspaper did publish a student list of 13 grievances. Students called that a minor victory. The students were striving to keep the place and time of their meetings secret from members of government-backed student organizations, informed sources said. The government -support groups are the Socialist Youth Union (ZMS) and the Peasants Youth Union (ZMW) both of which have been isolated by the liberal student movement since the protests flared nearly three weeks ago. The dissident students maintain the two government, supported organizations do not represent a majority of the students.

DEAR HELOISE: With a few stitches on the sewing machine and an old terry towel, I solved my cobweb and tile floor problem. I made a terry cloth cover for my broom and it works nicely in place of the regular dust mop, which involves a long drying time after being washed. I folded the towel lengthwise, stitched it up the two sides and slid the cover over the broom. I use a safety pin to secure the top, but one could use elastic or a drawstring. I made four covers for my broom and always have a clean one ready for use. This cloth-covered broom is excellent for using around the edges of a rug. Turned sideways it will go into narrowplaces. Also, I can lay it flat and dust under my washer and dryer. Then off comes the cover and a clean one is put on for the next cleaning job. My neighbor has two dogs and has adopted my "coverup” idea. She tells me that dog hairs stick as if the terry cloth were magnetized. No more dirty brooms for me. Mabel Dean

clean Venetian blinds recently, I gave some thought to how we could prevent the cord that adjusts the tilt of the blind, from creeping up out of reach. After adjusting the two cords to an even length with the blind slats open, I closed the blind and tied a simple overhand knot on the "closed” cord adjacent to the pulley at the top of the blind. This knot prevents creeping of the cord and does not interfere with adjustment of the angle of the slats. Forest VanPelt

DEAR HELOISE: Instead of using the center of an open magazine to sort graduated beads. I find the best way is to line them up in the little groove along the top of a ruler. Most school rulers have such a groove. The beads can be lined up neatly, may be rearranged easily and don't get lost in the folds of a magazine. A Friend

You have a good point there, friend. (I just looked at both plastic and wooden rulers.) That groove is a doo/.y! Just like you . . . Heloise

DEAR HELOISE: I’ve been married two years and though I’m not yet a classified "senior housewife,” I would like to contribute to your column. Being a housewife is one of the most rewarding jobs in the world, but it can become drudgery if you let it. So I think the key to preventing this is imagination. If everyday you just move and rearrange a piece of furniture, change knick-knacks arcund, set your dinner table with those placemats you still haven’t used, etc. . . . Not only will you find yourself happier, your husband will think what a clever w r oman he married! Mrs. V. Ranieri

LETTER OF LAUGHTER DEAR HELOISE: If you think I'm not fat now, I just learned that it takes two pennies to weigh me . . . Miss S

DEAR HELOISE: Our family has different likes when it comes to soup, so we have do-it-yourself soup. I make beef or chicken broth with seasoned, cut-up meat. In another kettle I have hot vegetables and still another kettle has noodles. Then each one fixes his own bowl and everyone is happy. Eunice

DEAR HELOISE: When draining canned cherries cr peaches for recipes, save the juice and boil for a short time with some sugar. It makes delicious syrup for waffles and pancakes! It’s a real yummy treat. C. D. H.
