Jameson Mauzy ( Last Monday Syracuse lost to < Pie ret ton 4 to 1, and Wednesday < we lost to Silver Lake 5 to 2 It wasn’t quite the week the team had hoped for since it was the last of the season but they all . put up a good fight. Mr. Ummel acreditted the losses * this roar to “inexperience and a • voung ball chib”. He said that there was only one senior on the team and also that most of the members now, ' had not been on the team before or ’ had not played much. He said it r was from the lack of experience that too many mistakes had been made. 1 Mr Ummel thinks the team will be better next year because they will 1 have more experience ® Mere are some of the batting av- • erages etc., of the men who batted • over 20 times in September.

' - A BYRON CONNOLLY WILLARD NL’gBAVM LOREN E LONGENBAUGH VERNON T &EUKMAN « Board of Trustees j Attest:' f W. F. Calnon, Clerk-Treasurer ; i'SEALi , Welfare Os Community - From th» Milford Ministerial Association to th- Milford Town Board: - We the members of. the Milford Ministerial Association, acting as sounding board of our parish- rs. are concerned about the welfare of our. town- and its ■fore, w- feel it as spiritual leaders of this community to bring t.o the attention of the board a ma’t-r of grave conc-rn. First let it be made cl-ar that it is not our intention to attempt to interfere with the board's business. And it is not to attempt to tell the mem-b-rs of th- board what to do. But ra „- . r it is our d- sir- to do wha:.. v.-r is possible to h- Ip th- board and the people of this' town so make Milford a good place to live and raise our families. The Ministerial Association is very con-c-med With the law enforcement of Milford. There tar- many reports of open gambling in several establishments along Main street. And these reports state that high school youth are allowed to sit among th- adults in open, games of chance with the permission of the management, and with the-knowledge of those who are appointed to enforce the lawsof our community. Also we feel that not enough effort is being made on the part of the local authority to enforce the speeding laws, and the sale of alcoholic b-verages to those who th- state strictly forbid sal s, namely: people under legaF age and habitual drinkers. It is our observation that respect for the law and those who are; appointed to uphold it is at an alarming low, due in part, to the conduct of those who are entrusted to enforce it. This .feeling is especlaliy prevalent among yoting people. And w<- are alarmed because we cannot expect our young p-ople who are to be citizens of tomorrow to be responsible unless we. the responsible p-ople of today, s. t a good exampl- of responsibility. Therefore we encourage the Town Board to take proper action to see that law and ord-r is maintain-d to the fullest extent of th-ir ability. We suggest to the board that as elected dffic-rs of this community, it falls upon the board to see that the law is enforced and that responsible people are appointed to carry out said enforcement. The board must take the responsibility if the officers they maintain on the town police force do not conduct themselves in the manner becoming an officer of the law. - - Again, it is not our desire to dictate to the board, but in the interest of law enforcem- nt and good government w- fee! this to be an issue of much concern at this time. j Respectfully submitted: Mlnls’i-riai Board — Petition To Oust Police Officer STATE OF- INDIANA ) > ss: KOSCIUSKO COUNTY« PETITION We. the undersigned, do hereby regpectfully p-tltlon the board of town I trustees of th» town of Milford Junction I Kosciusko County, State of Indiana as I follows: I t.
