'chjzinMw AROUND K \ J Hie Flotilla on Lake Wavvasee Ls past and Lakeland residents are looking to the Mermaid Festival at .\o.-t.t Webster for a Week o.f fun. In all, the Father’s Day Flotilla this year was a real success. There was a good number of floats, although there could have been more. The high westerly wind, approaching 35 miles per hour, caused the parade route to be cut short by about an hour. When it chime time to judge the floats, the judges were close' together with th- : ■ ij : ■ i<toal original elwiees. (harming Margaret Prickett, mayor of the city of Mishawaka and cousin of Tom Prickett, who gave this year’s Flotilla so much of his time and effort, proved a pleasant one to work with. W hen it came to judging the best commercial float, she hastily disqualified herself. She liked Tom’s, but said she was probably partial. Anotlter real charmer proved .to be Spencer Ibckels with hi.s daughters •and sot of N.les.-Mctv, He spoke genuine praise for the hospitality extended hiin to Dick .M-.ie-’i, seen taxy of the sponsoring Chamber of Commerce, as he deparivNi for home Sunday evening. Pickles participated all around; in jolly -good fun. playt*d golf, wore his sun-visored cap backwards when the wind got strong, and seemed to have a time of his life. Bickels was cho.-en “Top Pop” by mtest put on by WOWO, F< Wayne radio station who backed this year’s Flotilla to the hilt. ■ The MO-hoys said there would be 25.000 people at the Flotilla, and they didn’t miss it far.-. All view pofatts were crowded. Al I.amley. owner of M’s Plaza Marina, near the fish hatchery, said he never saw such a mob. Incidentally. Al and Ginny’s float won honorable mention, and they give all credit\to toeir neighbors and friends, Elmer and. Agnes Smith, owner of Thfe Pines. Another one thrilled at winning honorable mention was Suzie Tytler ot Mock’s Marina. A real barker of the Flotilla, she deserved it. Her marina furnished the Top Pop and his two daughters with a boat from 11:30 to 6:30 p.m. Friday. A sidelight: Four people fell into the lake from one' float. Two grabbed ife belts and Earl Money, who was nearby, went in—clothes and all — and brought the nt her two to safety. Loveda Cook owner <f -Marner Beauty colleg in ’ ort Mayne, which was winner of the Best of Show Commodore's Cup. was tnilv thrilled at her quest. Me asked, “How manv paper napkins went into that float?” She replied. “50. 000”. To which we stated, “Don’t you mean 5,000?” And she said emphaticallv, "No, 50.000. and I can produce the sales slips to prove it. Tom Prickett proved a casualty of the pre-Flotilla effort, but was able to be on hand to make the ride alake. One person judged there were "nearly 200” craft on the lake at one time. Uirry Griffith, coowner with brother J«'k of Wawasee Marina, commanded the craft which carried the judges around the lake It was a >hvk, new S[x»rtsnian inboard, made of fiberglass. The nvirina ju>t received -it; Another one who did an excellent job wa* par .ale marshal Bob

Rule. He has had experience and I didn't miss a beat. Also seen doing his duty was trooper Bob ClevenS er - . The Flotilla Ball, held at the Seminary’ gym Saturday night, did not draw the large crowd the Ball had previously enjoyed. However, Kthe music was tine and those present had an outstanding time. Fathers John and Sheets were on hand to greet many dancers and to bid them welcome, ’ For a while we followed the Top Cats, the four WOWO boys, on the golf course at Wawasee golf. Me. found out one thing: They aren’t I very good golfers, but they probably iiad more- fun than the rest of us. They didn't divulge their scores, but we learn« k d all were in the high 50s on nine holes. John Signa was | the winner of the four with a score of something over 100. They tell that big Bob Chase.7 a member at M'awasee, is a real good golfer, but he wasn’t in the match Saturday p.m. Tliose ' boys put even-thing they had back-of this year's Flotilla and it showed. They even had their station I manager come, up with an editorial j on the air, tying in the Flo’iiia with the state’s effort to promote tourism , in Indiana. I On Sunday they had a report direct from Lake AVawasee every ; half hour. This was the fifth F’otilla and in many .respects one of the very best, thanks to the few who' put their respective shoulders to the wheel and made it. a success. Much credit should also go to a number of women who promoted the beauty contest, of which pretty Teri Blue was winner. Credit for this goes to Nancy Prickett.

He has been billed variously as. heading area circulation, city evlitor, then area editor.
