Civil Defense In Kosciusko County | One day last week this reporter ' had a very informitave talk with (Milo Clase. county Civil Defense WTMft toe editorial which appeared j in l&st week’s paper. j Now, we'd like to pass on a little of tae information Mr. Clase gave |us about our county's Civil Defense program. Here in Kosciusko county buildings have been inspected and designated as fallout shelters. To each of these federal fall out buildings has been assigned citizen -band radios, nurses and Red Cross first aid people. | The buildings, with rare , excep- j Uon, have been stock piled with food stuffs, emergency rations, toilet and water facilities and med-1 ical kits to be used for illness. The stock piles van- according to the • number of people who will be inl them. There is a trained group of men j in the county who are ready to help in an emergency. As we said in our editorial, the' main reason for Civil Defense is, in case of a nuclear attact. Mr. Clase is trying to educate the peo- s pie of this county. The better educated the people are. the less pan-' ic there would be in an emergency.! Mr. Clase has stated Kosciusko county is the best protected. best educated in the state, however, there are still people to talk to and things to do. He will talk to any service group who asks him and states he can talk for 20 minutes or two hours. “This is my job and obligation, land I mean to fulfill it,” stated Mr. [Clase. 7 j RANKS FOURTH . The Hoosier state’s only medical school, located at the Indiana UniI versify Medical Center in Indianai pedis, ranks fourth nationally in number of students admitted, eni rolled and graduated.

Q Editorial SCHOOL AND YOU School bells will again ring in the Lakeland schools on September 8 and another year of fun, work, study and sports will begin. If you are in that 16-18-year-old | I bracket and are thinking of keep- j ing that summer job instead of going back to school we’re asking you Ito give it a second thought. I Sure you are making a lot of money, but, what about the future? {You don’t want to mow lawns, wash | cars, baby sit, of what ever, all your life, do you? Dotft you want to get ahead' 1 r One of the best ways we can 1 think of is to finish school then go on to college or a trade school, 1 then you can pick the job of your I choice. So, think about it — then be in ■ school on September 8. Fellowship Class Has Pot Luck The Fellowship class of the Syra- . cuse Church of God met last Tues- | 'day evening at the home of Rev. j I ami Mrs. Victor Yeager for a pot tack supper. .After the supper Rev Walter] Williams presided over the business . session.

oajziNMW AROUND CUStJfcJ ' wl® ■ It's not true. G’W Foods is not closing its plant at Mendon. Mich., to move its complete operation to Syracuse. So states local plant manager Bob Spearman. 4 However, the local plant is enlarging, as anyone can plainly see from the highway, and is contemplating the hiring of 15 to 20 additional -people. i The company, which began at Mendon, Mich., as “a shoestring. • operation,” has grown in volumn until it is now one of the leading I pizza nianufactnring companies in in the midwest, and is now a branch of Beatrice Foods in Chicago. Look for more •on this growing local firm, when their present en-1, largement is completed. Did you know Turkey Creek township is the only township in the county that has not reported in the county-wide cancer drive? The county quota is $5,500, ac-' cording to field representative Hal Leichardt of Louisville, Ky., and stands just S3OO short of its goal. County organizers are disappointed that nothing was done in Tur- | key Creek township ... fed the S3OO could easily be made up here. The cancer society at one time operated within the United Fund, but this proved unsatisfactory. Anyone wishing to contribute can do so by sending their money to Mrs. . Ruth Ladd, treasurer of the Kosciusko county cancer society, Warsaw. The new 1966 Cheves will be shown on Oct. 7, it was learned ’ this week. Other new models will be coining to local showrooms , about that time, also. On Wednesday and Thursday of last week local Chevy men in Detroit looking over the new models. . Among them were his Chevy highness I Bill Cutter, and Ron Hib&diman and Jim Hughes. a i Who was minding the store? Why, Bea Brown, of cuss. We learn directly from the Bushong barber shop this little gem. New Syracuse principal Robert L. Slavens promises to be a stock task master, tough disciplinarian. Our source commented with half closed eyes and a showing of teeth, “Just what the doctor ordered.” Tombo is back! Tombo is the Bassett hound belonging to Mr. and Mrs. Tom Prickett which came up missing | last week, prompting big Tom to place an ad in this paper for his hasty return. Well he is now safely home, costing his owner $1 in kennel fees, and a friendly warning from chief Ganger to “build a dog bouse for that j tdog.” Result: The placing of one . i order for one dog house. Comes now this note Lrom Mrs. Edith M. Simcoeson: “I would like to see more in your s paper concerning our serxicemen s Sk So many of our young men ; are in the armed forces now, and I think as a tribute to them everyone , mid like to hear about tne bOxs : and where they are. I know I would, j Good idea. Let’s have more, tar I i readers. ' I An innovation that turned out well ! was the effort of Rev. August Lund- > quist U> promote his Worship in ’he Round. The final session will be this Sunday. Aug. 29, at Enchanted Hills Playhouse. On August 15 it featured a three-way dialogue with Gene and Vera Hall and Rev. Lundquist concerning proper perspective of time, and its use. Last Sunday the good Rev. neighborins pastor, Richard ner of Milford s Methodist church, as his straight "man. The two com- ’ plement one another so well. We salute Rev. Lundquist on his
