of Greencastle on the Manhattan Road. The service is conducted on the second Sunday of each month consisting of quartet numbers, specials by the young people of the church and congregational singing. Everyone is invited to attend this song service starting at 2:00 p.m. Be sure to attend for an afternoon of spiritual blessing in singing praises to the Lord.

Chief Petty Officer Connor of the Navy Recruiting Station, Terre Haute, revealed that the Navy has approved implementation of a “walk-in” program whereby Navy Recruiters can guarantee recruits that they will be accepted for Underwater Demolition Team training - if they can pass rigorous tests. Formerly, volunteers for UDT training were filled from within the Navy. Now, however, qualified recruits can be told they have a chance to join what has been called the finest and toughest group of fighting men in the Navy. Chief Connor said, “Approximately 700 new men are needed

each year for UDT training. Recruits’ Service Records would be “red flagged”, he continued,“to indicate that these men were volunteers for UDT training and that they would, if found qualified, proceed to UDT training upon completion of recruit training or technical (Class A) schooling.” “He stressed, however, that he could guarantee only the chance to qualify, not that they would automatically become fullfledge UDT men.” Team members are known for their high morale; they experience unique assignments that do not exist elsewhere. But before they can become part of UDT,

Fourteen members and two guests answered the roll call with “Something you are sharing” and payment of yearly club dues. Report on Achievement Day was given. The club will participate in the Christmas Workshop to be Nov. 15 at the 4-H Community building in Greencastle. The lesson was given by Mrs. Elizabeth McCullough, Prevo’s pertaining to the “Selection and Care of Lingerie,” which was greatly appreciated by all. The hostess served refreshments in keeping with the fall season, assisted by Mrs. Raymond Crosby. Veterans’ Day program started The Junior High School is planning its annual observation of Veterans’ Day Friday, Nov. 8, at 8:30 a.m. in the auditorium. Acting as Master of Ceremonies will be Mr. Thomas Hardwick. He will introduce Mr. Ralph Richards, Comm. Of American Legion Post 58; Wayne Jones, Comm, of Veterans of Foreign Wars; Harold Dunn of the American Legion; John Friend representing World War I veterans; Sergeant John Baumunk, representing the National Guard; and members of the DePauw ROTC.

St. Nick’s gifts going to Vietnam Tons of St. Nick’s gifts will be going to members of the Armed Forces in Vietnam by special ship this year, thanks to a joint Pentagon-Post Office venture. A fast U.S. Cargo Ship will be designated the “1968 Santa Claus Special,” sailing from Oakland, California next month with Christmas parcels. To meet the sailing deadline and assure pre-holiday delivery of gifts sent with surface postage, items should be mailed before November 9th. They should be marked “Santa Claus Special” just below the stamps. The “Santa Claus Special” will sail during the latter half of November and stop at Da Nang, Qui Nhon, Cam Rahn Bay and Saigon, Vietnam. It takes approximately three weeks for a fast ship to cross the ocean. All gifts should be packed in strong containers with adequate cushioning and correctly addressed, including APO and FPO numbers. There are several options available for mailing to the military which can save money. Post Offices across the nation have free pamphlets available which outline the mailing programs for servicemen and women overseas.

Governorships won by six Republicans By PATRICK J. SLOVAN WASHINGTON (UPI) - Republicans wrested at least six governorships from the Democrats today to roll up the largest statehouse majority for the GOP in 14 years. By early morning, Republicans had won 11 gubernatorial races and were leading in 2 others. Democrats had won 7 and led in 1 more. There were 26 Republicans and 24 Democratic governors before Tuesday’s election. It appeared the new lineup would be 31 Republicans and 19 Democrats. Marring the GOP victories was the biggest surprise in the statehouse fights. Gov. John H. Chafee, one of the party’s brightest young stars, was defeated in his bid for a fourth term in Rhode Island by Democrat Frank Licht, former superior court judge. Rep. Arch A. Moore Jr., added West Virginia to the GOP list. Moore won a close election over Charleston attorney James Spronco In memoriam In memory of my dear wife Dorothy Wassell, and mother, who passed away one year ago today, Nov. 7th 1967. Mother and wife you are not forgotten, though on earth you are no more, Still in memory you are with us, as you always were before. You often said we would miss you, these words have proved true, We lost our best and dearest mother, and wife when we lost you. We saw you fading like a flower but could not make you stay. We nursed you with loving kindness until God called you home, our mother and wife dear. We love you. Our hearts ache for you still forgotten by some others. But by us you never will. Sadly missed by Husband and Son. Card of thanks We wish to thank our neighbors and friends for their kindness shown us during the loss of our loved one Joe Garrett. We especially want to thank the Rector Funeral Home, the Rev. Jack McDaniel, Mr. and Mrs. Cooper, the pallbearers and those who sent the beautiful flowers. Lucy Garrett and Family

AAUW book sale aids fellowships The AAUW book sale Nov. 8 and 9 at 22 E. Washington St. will mean many hours of work by members of the organization. The annual sale is the local branch's way of contributing to the American and International Fellowships given each year by the American Association of University Women. Nearly a hundred women have been able to pursue advanced study and research this year through these fellowships, which range in value from $3000 to $5000 each. Two of the 54 American recipients are Hoosiers. They are Beverly R. Driver of Bloomington who is studying in Austria and Dr. Mary Julia Curtis of Terre Haute who is researching in London. Of, the 40 International Fellows from Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Latin America, Asia, Australia and India , most of whom are studying in the United States, four are working at Hoosier universities-- three at LU. and one at Purdue. Ages of the scholars range from 21 to 68 years and many of them are mothers—some with four or five children. One is a California novelist, Mrs. Diane Johnson, author of Fair Game and Loving Hands at Home. Competition for the fellowships is keen. There were 369 American and 314 foreign applications for the 94 fellowships awarded by the association for 1968-69. Queen Already Gilt Shopping LONDON 'UPI> — The Christmas gift list of Britain’s Queen Elizabeth has 700 names on it. So she has already start.ed shopping for presents. During her fall vacation at Balmoral Castle in the Scottish Highlands, she looked through catalogues from several London stores and marked her selections for her lady-in-waiting to place orders. The queen gets gifts for 28 godchildren, friends in scores of countries she has visited during her world tours, and members of all the other European royal families. Most of them are relatives. She shops personally for family presents in December. Extra early Christmas preparation is so that many of the packages and cards can be posted in November, the month the queen will be away on a state visit to South America. With her characteristic thoroughness, the queen means to make sure everything is in order before she leaves. Her presents will be packed at Buckingham Palace with signed greeting cards. Her mail goes out unstamped with a special marking from the private post office inside the palace.

Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF

fT'HE SON of one of those young Wall Street geniuses was 1, yawning through a class in elementary arithmetic when the teacher proposed to him, ‘‘Wilbert, let’s say you have six dollars in your pocket. You give me three. Now how much have you got left?” The Wall Streeter’s son looked at her coldly and demanded, “Why the heck should I give you three dollars?”

There’s no accounting for the odd-ball hobbies of some of our leading citizens. Charles Rice, the eminent journalist, for example, spends hours every week tracking down unusual automobile license plates. A few of his prize discoveries include a Connecticut gent who is a triple-threat man, with three cars tagged, respectively, MUMZ, POPZ, and KIDZ. A high-priced model wangled license number 36-24-36. A New Jersey undertaker with a sense of humor nailed down a license plate reading U-2. A Mr. Silpe—not Jack Benny—has AGE 3fb And one of Rice’s happiest moments came when he found himself behind a tow truck hauling away the battered remains of a wrecked sedan with license plate OOP. * * * "Is it true,” queries Irene Keepin, "that our President, when asked the secret of rearing two such lovely daughters, as Lynda and Luci, replied, "Johnson’s whacks, I reckon.” I wouldn’t know, Irene!
