Office to aid minority groups LAFAYETTE, Ind.—P u rdue University is establishing an Office of Special Counseling Services for Negro and foreign students and veterans with an adviser to give legal advice to students who raise questions about civil rights. Named to the office’s staff are Mrs. Ann L. Redmon, adviser for Negros and Arthur H. Tichenor Jr., adviser for foreign students. A university spokesman said Mrs. Redmon will develop a special orientation program for newly enrolled Negros and an academic tutoring program for those who need it. She will also help Negros find off-campus housing and help develop special programs to attract students to Purdue from disadvantaged environments. Tichenor, continuing work he has done as assistant dean of men, will help foreign students find living quarters, counsel them on personal problems and assist them with documents and language problems. The legal advisor for civil rights has not yet been appointed. Birth rate lowest in history WASHINGTON (UPI)-The U.S. Census Bureau reports that the U.S. birth rate in 1967 was the lowest in the nation’s history. According to statistics released Thursday, there were less than 18 births per 1,000 people last year. Although the death rate also declined—from 9.5 in 1966 to 9.3 per 1,000 last year—the bureau said the overall U.S. population growth rate was still lower than at any point since 1945. Census officials said the diminished birth rate stems from a growing trend toward family planning by American couples. Many couples, for example, have been postponing the birth of their first child for several years and then limiting family size. The net population gain of 2.1 million in 1967 pushed the nation over the 200 million mark. During the year 3.6 million babies were born, 1.9 million persons died and 443,000 immigrants entered the country, the bureau reported.

Earlham College receives
grant for Upward Program
RICHMOND—A grant of $4,000 was received Aug. 1, by Earlham College from the Dana Foundation in Toledo, Ohio, to help underwrite the cost of the Upward Bound program sponsored by the college for the past three years. Presentation of the grant was made to Earlham College by G. Robert Baer, Hagerstown, president of Perfect Circle Divisions of Dana Corp. Recognizing the need to assist in the education of high school students with college potential who live in impoverished or disadvantaged environments, Earlham elected in 1966 to par-
ticipate in the Upward Bound program despite financial problems similar to those of other private colleges. With major support from the Office of Economic Opportunity, Earlham has enrolled over 175 students from Richmond, Ind., Dayton, Cincinnati and Troy, Ohio, areas in the Upward Bound program over the three-year period. Earlham’s direct cost for the project has been $37,350. Landrum R. Bolling, president of the college, likens Earlham’s program of educational assistance for the disadvantaged to “a family on relief taking in an orphan.”

Public Library The Greencastle-Putnam County Library recently received the book, “Henry Cabot Lodge”, by William Miller. The book was presented to the library, in memory of Edna Best Wendell, by the American Legion Auxiliary. It is described as a fascinating study of a man who has served his country long and well. He has been prominent in American affairs for more than 30 years. A graduate of Harvard, he won election to the United States Senate while in his early thirties. He was decorated for heroism in World War II and was appointed U.S. Representative to the United Nations by President Dwight Eisenhower, serving from 1953 to 1960. In 1960 he became the Republican vice-presidential candidate. He was twice appointed U.S. Ambassador to Vietnam, where he was acclaimed for his leadership. Miller, the author, has known Mr. Lodge for several years. His biography flows easily and well as he gives a colorful picture of this citizen on many' talents, who has served in so many areas of American public life.

Blue is the color of my true love’s eyes. The brilliant blue of bright October skies. The hazy blue of mid-December. The soft and gentle blue of April. These are the moods of my true love’s eyes. Blue is a crystal bottle sitting in a window. The sun sends silvery light and diamonds glisten in the crystal-cut design. Blue sparkles. Mountains, tall and majestic, reach to the sky with a throbbing prayer of reverence. A lake nestles between the mass of the mountains, reflecting their snowcapped tops. Tall and stately pine trees encircle the lake and dance along the mountain sides. And the lake is blue. It is night. A blanket of snow warms the barren earth. The trees and shrubs are sugardusted. An awkward, funny snowman stands alone in the yard. His coal button eyes are black, flecked with tiny white drops. His carrot nose is long and cold. And his tall black hat is spotted with snow. His shadow is blue. Blue is a world of beauty and sadness. The moon-world of a spring night is full of love. Its shadows and cries are blue. A tiny bird flutters in its nest. It, too, is blue. Under the softness of b1ue spring skies the lovers pause. The shade of the willow tree is blue. Good-bye is blue. It is the haunting refrain of a special song vibrating softly through the
velvet blue of midnight. It is a night remembered. Happiness is blue. It is a frothy white evening dress, dappled with blue beads and sashed with blue chiffon. Blue is candelight. It is a purple-toned violet peeping shyly through the spring grass. Sometimes, for a fleeting moment, when hearts are parted and love is hushed, blue is a tear. ...a blue tear. Sometimes it is a cry. Sometimes it is a blue cry. Sometimes blue is lonely. Sometimes it is sad. A blue tear fell from her eyes. And blue is the color of my ture love’s eyes. Turn off gas in INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — The Richmond Gas Corp. Thursday asked the Indiana Public Service Commission to require the City of Richmond to serve notice on all “interested parties” in the municipality petition to have gas service discontinued in the downtown area. The utility replied to a July 18 petition by the city which sought to have gas shut off from the downtown area in which an April 6 explosion killed 41 persons. “A number of customers who can use gas for various purposes essential to carrying on their business operations and other customers who require gas for cooking and heating” would be affected by the proposed petition, the utility said. “They should have notice of
l»KAK FOLKS: Tin* is for those of us who are hig in the middle (that’s the tummy part) and huy streteh blue jeans . . . and need to alter them a little so they’ll fit around our middle. If you’ll notice, there’s always about an inch or so ol extra band in the back part. Every person I know who alters clothes, always takes off the entire band, takes out the tucks, etc. Fiddle de dee! It’s not necessary. I just bought two pairs and found that if I use a razor blade, I can rip one side of the hand off starting near the butloii where that extra inch or so is hanging over. Then take the hand and “rip” just across the hack part (don’t even bother to rip the whole baud off—only half). That Dress up in fashion with a scarf By JOAN DEPPA PARIS (UPI)-The most valuable accessory for any woman who wants a touch of Paris chic this fall is a scarf. Paris designers, who steered clear of expensive jewelry and elaborate fur trimmings, con. cocted a whole hatful of scarf tricks to perk up dark suits, dresses and coats. Dior came up with the most useful one: take a long scarf with fringed ends, fold it double, then with the folded end in the left hand and the fringed one in the right, lift it over the head and across the back of the neck and bring the two ends forward. Slip the fringed ends through the loop formed by the folded end and pull it like a lasso. Tuck the fringed ends under the belt of the suit or coat. It was particularly attractive with Dior’s strict little suits with buttoned-up cardigan necklines. St. Laurent had several that were even simpler. He tied a scarf through the epaulet of a trench coat with one outfit and another on the long handle of a shoulder bag. Both scarves were left hanging down the back. The tall, lanky designer showed a neat version of one scarf trick that he wears himself and it was already being adopted by several fashion writers by the end of the collections. He ties a patterned scarf around his hips and wears a belt on top of it, often with his shirt open to the waist. When he showed it for women, it was tidied up a bit, however. The scarf was tied around the waist cumberbund syle and one of his chain belts worn over it. St. Laurent also ties big square scarves cowboy style round the plain necklines of his outfits.
To supply food PLYMOUTH, Ind. (UPI) - A blueberry pie airlift will supply Governor Branigin with food for a coffee break Monday. Marshall County’s Blueberry Festival committee announced plans to fly a pie from Plymouth Airport to Indianapolis for the purpose of telling the governor about the annual festival on Labor Day. A delegation of five festival executives will deliver the pie at 10 a.m. Richmond these proceedings so that they may appear on their own behalf,” the utility said. The petition also asked that the city of Richmond make more specific what it means by “downtown area” and what laws and ordinances it maintains were violated.
(loggoni- slrHch ji':in will str»'t»-h piTfwtly so that you cun resow that hack hand on again. It i\ill stretch that extra inch or two while you sow it. This moans I don't have to alter any tucks whatsoever. Itut I must rip out instead ol eutting each stitch. ^ oil'll still have to set that little ole hlltton oxer on the end. Hut with all the stretch jeans we huy that just AIN’T hig enough through tin* middle, why not try this method? Iloloise I*. S. Oh. I forgot to tell you that all you have to do after you rip the hack waisthand off is put the edge of it under your sewing machine, pull the body of the jean so it will stretch open while you sexx it hack on that extra hit of material which comes on the hand. (If you have to, you can open the tucks and make ’em smaller). It exactly fits the hand, thus no further alterations are necessary. DEAR HELOISK: My husband liked the idea of wearing shirt-jacs with his summer working uniforms. But there was too much difference in price from regular shirts'. 1 bought the ordinary shirts with the straight-across bottoms, turned them up to the desired length and hemmed them. Then I put grippers at the bottom front where the two edges came together and at the side seams. Presto! Shirt-jacs that are cool. neat, less expensixe, and xx'hieh can be opened flat for going through the ironer. I used grippers instead of buttons which might pop off.
