The Goshen News failed to live up to prize-winning reputation by leveling a backhander to the Wakarusa Tribune for its support of Senator Vance Hartke foi* re-election. It said Senator Hartke’ must be “breathing easier" for this support. It didn’t mention that James Wright, publisher of the Wakarusa Tribune, is outgoingpresident of the Hoosier Democratic Editorial Association, and that many Democratic papers in the state take their cue from remarks in Wright’s fine weekly newspaper. A> a matter <>f sol>er fact, the Goshen News I as been only lukewarm in its praise for Russell Bontrager, Hanke’s opponent. Most of its support has been in the form of reprint editorials from other papers. No

Time For A Change... The pld saw, “It’s Time For A Change," a little shopworn, but it is stHI good. This is something we’ve thought about Kosciusko county jx»litics for a long time.

BUYERS OF 4-H beef cattle and 4-H cluli bed project members were guests of the county Angus association at a beef burger barbecue October 22.

There are exceptions of course. -•• • • ' ONE OF THE good examples of a loss of local control and the expanding of federal and state authority is in the field of milk inspections. There are no polities and no philosophy involved but there are a lot of economics and arithmetic and salesmanship and transportation. Less than a generation ago about all the milk used in any town was produced within a few miles of the market. Each producer had a few cow s and the milk was picked up

Another note of interest among Third District newspapers is the fact The South Rend Tribune, most widely circulated newspaper there, came out editorially for incumbent congressman John Bradamas, and refused to support either Goldwater or Johnson for President.

One or two Democrats in the court house would be the best tiding Kosciusko county voters could do for themselves. This would help eliminate the cover-up and mutual fraternity of amiable back-scratch-ers. Yes. it’s time for a chance. Don’t you agree?

The real culprit is the fellow that invented the truck and the person who conceived the highway system.

Individuals in a boat other than a motorboat are not now required to have a life preserver aboard, although the safety factor is as great as (or persons in a motorboat Hereafter, all boats would be required to be equipped with at least one life preserver, ring buoy, life jacket, buoyant vest or buoyant cushion of a make <>r type approved by

DAD DOESN’T DIG "STOVE PIPE" PANTS

Dear Amy: I’m a 16 year old student who i has troubles with his father, j Whenever I go out to buy clothes j for myself, he wants to tag along, j That’s not too bad, but he wantsl me to wear the type of clothesl he wore when he was a boy. You know*the kind I mean . . . the, ones that flap in the wind! The kind of pants I want are slightly ■ tapered. Me says these “stove pipe” pants aren’t practical. 1| say to go along with the fad and not be an odd-ball. You’re only young once! What’s your opinion? w. w. w. Dear W.: Yes, you are only young once . . . but that’s no reason to want to look or act ridiculous. I go along with the “slightly tapered” look if that will help your present cause, but to me, the faddist IS the odd ball, and I'm sure you get what I mean! • • • Dear Amy: My husband is taking his an- - nual business trip to Miami, | Florida, and as usual, he adver-1 tised for riders to help pay traveling expenses. * This time he received only one answer to his ad and that was from two sisters in their midtwenties who are going to Miamil to look for work. We checked their references and everything. seems all right. . My friends are all kidding me about my husband going on such a long trip with two single girls, | so now I'm beginning to have . some doubts. Do you think that; I should let him take these girls along or try to get a male rider? Distressed Dear Distressed: You know your husband better than I do. But since the odds are two to one, I don’t think you have anything to worry about. • • • Dear Amy: Is one compelled to send a baby gift just because one receives an announcement of the baby’s birth? My beef is this: My sister-in- i law has a party in honor of her child’s birth and invites only her , own sisters with perhaps one j sister-in-law thrown in just to 1 keep my side of the family quiet the United States Coast Guard for each personaboard. This change would include all boats, rowboats, sailboats, canoes, rafts, or any other water conveyance. Another change would add a requirement that a permit be. issued for any type of race, or competition, on public waters, including ice.. At present a permit must be obtained only for motorboat races. Each year requests are received for. permits to hold races and exhibitions on ice; including go-cart and ice boat races. This change would enable the department to control the use of the statecontrolled waters involving activities competing with fishing and other uses of the ice. The Boating Law prohibits boat passengers from sitting or standing on gunwales or bow decking of any water craft. The department suggests adding the words . . : “or lie” ... to the section, thus prohibiting passengers or crew from sitting, standing, or laying on gunwales and foredeck. With the growing number of pon-

I — but the rest of us only get ' announcements. Puzzled Dear Puzzled: No one is ever compelled to send a gift. Your sister-in-law ! committed a grand faux pas by inviting one sister-in-law and ! omitting the others. Chalk her up! Only send a gift if you want to. An announcement can also be acknowledged by a card of congratulations ... if one is so inclined. • • « Dear Amy: The other day I very casually met a very nice young man. I haven't been formally introduced to him and I would like to know ; him better. I found out that he is 18, but I’m only 15. I don't really think that my parents , would approve of our going together (if I should ever get to know him well enough that we would want to go together). I really would appreciate some advice on this matter because I would like to know if you would approve of a fairly casual friendship with someone who is only \ three years older than mvself? i Casual Girlfriend Dear Casual: I’m for casual friendships ... it’s for you to keep it that-a-way! Dear Amy: I try to read your column every i week. My problem is my 13 year ' old sister. She thinks she loves a guy 21 years old. I promised I wouldn't tell mother, but it has . become a bit too serious. This ! man has a transmittable illness and it can't be cured. If he marries her. he will give it to her. I have plans to talk to sis about it, but if that doesn't do any good, should I tell mom’ I gave my promise but I need some advice. Still In Deep Meditation Dear Still; Tell your mother immediately. , If you love your sister, you cannot keep your promise. This guy is sick ail right ... in more ways than one! • • • Address all letters to: AMY ADAMS c/o THIS NEWSPAPER For a personal reply enclose a • stamped, self-addressed envelope. toon boats on state waters, a requirement making it necessary for these boats to display a fixed combination red and green light forward and a fixed white light aft is necessary. It is often difficult to see these boats at dusk or after dark and almost impossible to determine which direction they are moving without lights. A new section requiring lights to be displayed on any barge, raft, or other hazard to navigation when moored or extending 50 feet from shore is,being offered the General Assembly. This would be an aid to safe navigation by eliminating unlighted hazards to motorboats operated after dark. .Another new section requiring operators of motorboats equipped with a 25 horsepower, or greater, motor to possess a valid Indiana vehicle operators license or to be accompanied by a person in possession of a valid operators license is being suggested in the hope that boating accidents will be minimized. This addition would require powerful boats be operated by or under the super-

vision of an individual capable of responsible operation. Many younger operators do not know nor realize the many hazards and dangers that are involved when running a boat at high speed. A large percentage of boating violations are occurring among young operators. Enforcement officers are hampered in enforcing motorboat laws because juvenile offenders cannot be tried in court according to current statutes. A section of the boating law should be added authorizing 16 to 18-year-old boating law violators to be tried in Justice of the Peace Courts. This is to be pattern- ■ ; ed after the motor vehicle code. 36 Cross County School Units In State Os Indiana There is a total of 36 school corporations in Indiana that cross county lines, it was revealed this week.
