INDIANAPOLIS ( U P I ) — Backers of Sen. Eugene McCar. thy Monday announced plans for “McCarthy Day” in Indianapolis on Aug. 15. It is one of 30 nationwide rallies aimed at convincing Democrats that the Minnesota lawmaker has wide popular support. Dr. James Bogle, state chairman of the steering committee for the organization, said at a news conference that McCarthy will attend a simultaneous rally in Madison Square Garden and will address the rallies in the Goshen Women falls prey to con-game GOSHEN, Ind. (UPI) — An 82-year-old Goshen spinsiter was out $3,800 Monday because she fell for a confidence game that has enriched many criminals at the expense of the frugal elderly. Miss Laura Hoover withdrew the money from her savings account at the First National Bank Friday at the behest of a man posing as a bank official who said somebody had been embezzling money and the bank and the FBI was trying to catch the culprit. After she returned home by cab from the bank with 38 new $100 bills, the “bank official” came to her home and picked up the money from a stand while pretending to get a drink of water in Miss Hoover’s kitchen. Two girls 10 and 11 years old saw the man leave the house and walk down a street. They decided to play detective and followed him to a waiting car some distance away. Police were given a description of the man and the auto, but by the time the suspicious Miss Hoover .called them the criminal had vanished without a trace.

I always add a spoonful of tomato catsup to the salmon as well as the mayonnaise. This not only gives it more "eye appeal”, but adds a better taste. "A IVnny-I’incher"

INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) - The Indiana Statehouse has a housekeeping problem that is producing complaints all the way from the women who work in the Supreme and Appellate Court clerk’s office to the judges. Court clerk Kendal E. Mathews, Centerville, said that at least one judge complained to Governor Branigin because documents and other papers he received from the clerk’s office had soot on them. But Mathews said there is nothing he can do until Branigin’s Department of Administration acts. A renovation project under the department’s supervision is underway in the court clerk’s office and has uncovered four open shafts or chimneys containing soot and dust. The openings apparently were part of the original heating • venilating system of the Statehouse. Extend to the Roof The openings, which extend to the roof, were uncovered when file cabinets were removed preparatory to installation of a new filing system. “That was July 8 and we are still breathing dust and dirt and filing court documents from the floor,” Mathews said. Dr. Garriott named region awards judge Dr. Harold M. Garriott, Greencastle, has been appointed a regional judge for the National Council of T e a c h e r s of English Achievement Awards Program for 1968, it was announced today. Judging committees, composed of teachers of English from both college and high schools, will evaluate the writing skills and literary awareness of over 8,600 selected high school students. The Achievement Awards Program attempts to grant recognition to high school seniors for excellence in English. Finalists are announced in late November and are recommended for scholarship aid to all colleges and universities in the United States. Award winners generally receive from fifty to seventy-five letters from colleges offering scholarship aid or encouraging application for admission. The Achievement Awards competition is part of the comprehensive program of the National Council of Teachers of English to improve instruction in English language and literature at all levels throughout the nation’s schools. The NOTE is a professional, nonprofit organization of English teachers whose membership and subscribers now include more than 135,000 teachers from primary grades to graduate school.

By HORTENSE MYERS In addition to the dirt which sifts into the office from the open shafts, walls in the two rooms where the file cabinets were removed are grimy with dirt and unpainted. “We used to wonder where all the dirt came from which got into those file cabinets,” one of the women employes said. “We would scrub them out with soap and water and they would be dirty again in a few weeks.” No present occupant knows whether the openings were once fireplaces or ventilation flues, but a check with the Indiana division of the State Library indicates they could be both. $2.2 Million Spent The reports of the Board of State House Commissioners which supervised the building of the Statehouse beginning May 24, 1877 and ending Oct. 2, 1888, contain references to ventilating flues located in each room and also to fireplaces in each office.

CIDAA

The 1877 Legislature created a bipartisan four-mem»)er com- - mission, with the governor as fifth member and chairman, and directed it to spend no more than $2 million on the structure. The final report shows $2,191,859 spent from the State House Fund. The heating and ventilating contract was awarded to Walworth Manufacturing Co., Boston, for $45,893. The records indicate that steam heat was provided from the beginning but fireplaces also were installed, possibly as show pieces. The records show 60 marble mantels were purchased for office rooms plus four marble mantels in the House and Senate chambers. Marble Mantels Payment for the marble mantels was listed in the board s report at $5,085, plus $6,996 for marble hearths and $708 for fire grates. A description of the steam heating and ventilating plans said “four fans, one for each quarter of the building, have been placed near each air entrance in the basement. . .forcing same through the air ducts to the radiators and up the flues into each room. . .this arrangement relieves all parts of the building from dependence of direction and force of winds. Ir the summer this system may be used for the cooling of the building.” The project for closing the openings and painting the walls in the court clerk’s offices is on a tentative agenda for Budget Agency consideration. Mathews said one thing the renovation proved was that nothing of value ever got lost behind the old files. Only a few pieces of paper of no value were found—plus an empty, antique whisky bottle.
