Old fashioned evening of fellowship at Fillmore

FILLMORE-The lawn of the Fillmore Methodist Church will be the scene of an old-fashioned ice cream supper, Saturday night, Aug. 10. Freezer-made ice cream will be ready at 7 p.m. In addition, there will be several varieties of cakes, pies and drinks. The party will continue as long as there are customers or as long as the freezer-turners are able. The people at Fillmore invite all their friends from Putnam County to come by for chatting, eating and good fellowship. “One of our greatest losses

in a fast society,” said John McFarland, minister, “is the lack of time to just relax and talk, and learn more about each other. I personally look forward to our times of fellowship because I have the opportunity of meeting so many people and sharing ideas with them.” There will be no specific charges for anything. All offerings and donations will be used.for the work of the church. Dozens of men, women, and youth are contributing time, work and materials to make the occasion a success.

Two cycles damaged; one rider injured Motorcycles were involved in two accidents Tuesday evening near State Highway 240. The first accident occurred at 8 p.m. near the intersection of highway 240 and First St. when Larry Trueblood, age 20, 719 E. Seminary St., apparently lost control of the motorcycle he was driving. The cycle careened into the lawn of the Clarence Courtney residence, uprooting shrubbery. Trueblood was treated at Putnam County Hospital. Damage to the motorcycle was estimated at $175. At 9:40 p.m., a car driven by Nancy Bohler, age 20, Brazil, was struck broadside by a motorcycle driven by Don Dowty age 17, Greencastle. The accident occurred near the intersection of highway 240 and Wood St., when Miss Bohler was making a left turn from the west bound lane of highway 240. She was cited for failure to yield the right of way. Dowty was not injured. Damage to the motorcycle was estimated at $250. Damage to the auto was placed at $100. The Greencastle Police Department investigated. Elizabeth Taylor to leave hospital LONDON (UPI) — Elizabeth Taylor Wednesday will leave the London nursing home where she underwent a partial hysterectomy, a hospital spokesman said .

A contract for $2,970 for repairs to the floor of the gym. nasium was awarded to the Cincinnati Flooring Co. The company installed the original floor in the building. Several members of the Clover, dale Town Board appeared at the meeting to discuss the possibilities of placing a drain in the school parking lot. School board members decided that after investigating the situation and the financial angles, they would cooperate with the town board in correcting the situation. Superintendent Johnson gave a financial report. Board members approved claims.

—Hoosiers public policy. It would be my ambition to extend and continue the principles and the integrity of my predecessors, Senator Senator Landgrebe and former Sen. John W. Van Ness,” Cobb said. Cobb, who is 42 years old, lost his sight as a result of an accident 10 years ago. Nevertheles , he owns a secretarial service, is a partner in an estate planning service and an employment service and is office manager of a structural dynamic concern and 14 other businesses. An active worker for Richard M. Nixon in Miami Beach is 65.year.old Lisle Wallace,Sheridan grain elevator operator, who probably will be hailed as Indiana “Mr. Republican” in a few years. Wallace is not a delegate but has attended eight other nation, al conventions in various capacities. In 1952, he managed the Indiana campaign of t h e late Sen. Robert A. Taft and later was liaison officers for the GOP national committee. He was chairman of the Indiana Conservation Commission when Ralph F. Gates was governor and twice was administrative assistant to Sen. William E. Jenner. Ransacked PITTSFIELD, Mass. (UPI)— It didn’t pay Nache Kaminski to do his morning chores. Kaminski told police someone ransacked his house Monday and robbed him of $150 while he was out milking cows. —Ball Zinc new machines will all be ordered within the next few months. While we can not be at all precise now because of factors that are difficult to predict, we anticipate that there will be no disturbance of any of the regular production activities in t h e Brooklyn, Greencastle, or Muncie plants until sometime in late 1970 or early in 1971. You will be informed of any developments which further affect you.” Union employes at the Greencastle plant threatened to strike earlier this y e a r for higher wages. The strike was averted by a federal judge in Indianapolis. The union sought to increase the salary schedule to match wages being paid to employes at the Mancie plant. An increase was obtained. The company threatened t o move the plant out of Greencastle if the union voted to go on strike. * * * Cauvery. India, is the most variable of the world's known waterfalls.

Terre Haute gallery to have opening

Visitors to t h e September opening of the Swope Art Gallery in Terre Haute will find two newly revamped galleries set aside for the permanent display of art treasures. American works will be prominent. In the beginning, the Swope Gallery’s collection was founded on the first director’s dream to purchase, exhibit and encourage the a r t of contemporary America. Over the years, the collection has expanded to include European, African, and Oriental works; but, the emphasis at the Gallery has continued to be on American art. “Because of Director John Rogers Cox’s faultless taste and judgment,” Gallery Director Howard Wooden points out, “unusually fine American works found their way into the initial collection.” Among the best known American paintings are those by the American realists, artists who flourished in t h e 1920’s and 1930’s. They glorified a folksy kind of art. While fighting the European influences on American life brought back by American soldiers after World War I, they plugged the good old American tradition. The Swope Gallery displays work by each of the three great American realists, Grant Wood, Thomas Hart Benton and John Stuart Curry. “Threshing Wheat” (1939) by Thomas Hart Benton, a tempera on panel, is an internationally known painting owned by t h e Swope Gallery. Director Wooden says, “It’s in constant demand; it has toured all over the country.” The painting did, in fact, hang in the White House during President Johnson’s 1965 White House Festival of the Arts. It was

the only painting there from Indiana. The Swope collection also includes “Spring in Town” by Grant Wood; “My Father’s Farm” by John Stuart Curry; John Costigan’s “Noonday Rest”; George Schreiber’s “Pretzel Woman”; and “From Arkansas”; Edward Hopper’s “Route 6, Eastham”; and Charles Burchfield’s “Old Houses in Winter.” —He even Douglas is very interested in music and plans to study at Indiana University for his college major. He graduated from Bainbridge grade school last semester as salutatorian of his class. He plays the trombone and baritone and is learning to strum the banjo and play the piano. The 5-7 redhead said he helps around the farm, but his main interest is music. He is the only son of Mr. and Mrs. James White. He has two sisters, Janice, 11, and Jeanette, 8. “I guess the reason I checked the flag so closely was because when I started the habit I wondered if the flag was the old 4 8-star type or the new 50 star flag. For some reason 48 stars don’t seem to represent the true greatness of our country as 50 stars do.” “Those 50 stars in the blue field symbolize how closely united we all should be in this country.” Although there are a lot of people by the name of White, it’s not hard to find Douglas. He’s the one with his head in the sky, counting the stars.

Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF A COMPUTER executive tells about a St. Louis resident -cV who’s been receiving monthly bills for $0.00 from some auto insurance company (which, of course, had installed a rival manufacturer’s computer system). The bills were ignored until one arrived marked “final notice,” warning that if the $0.00 wasn't coughed u p forthwith, the man’s policy would be terminated. Obviously there was only one thing to do, and he did it. He sent the insurance company a check for $0.00. • • • Ace raconteur Harry Hershfleld (now 83 years old) was buttonholed by one of those females who haunt New York theatre lobbies at intermission time, rattling coin boxes under your nose, and demanding donations for obscure and seldom legitimate charities. "Who are you pitching for this time?” asked Harry impatiently. “For fallen women,” whined the solicitor. “On your way, Lady,” snapped Harry. “I give directly.” • • • Zsa Zaa Homtoot, the giddy lady novelist, goes in for neatly typed letters that are initialed at the bottom, “ZH/WTF.” Think not that the frugal Miss Homtoot enlists the services of a private secretary. The “WTF” means “with two fingers.” C 1968, by Bennett Cerf. Distributed by Kina Features Syndicate.

—Nixon no way be abridged tor reasons for race, religion, color or national origin.” At this convention, Nixon has thrown all of his troops into a go-for-broke charge for victory on the first ballot. During the past week, delegates have shifted their allegiance from one candidate to another but not to a sufficient extent to cut into Nixon’s commanding lead.
