By JERI SEELY People in Syracuse are still raving over how wonderful Toni Morehead was in the Enchanted Hills Phyhouse production of ‘‘The King and I.”. Toni is the wife of Glenn Morehead and really is a wonderful singer. I have heard so many comments on the town board considering a curfew law for Our Town and nil of them have been in favor of such a law. Have you seen the Chesty’ Foods, Inc., truck in town lately? It is now being driven by George Truex. He has a warehouse on Section street. Was in C. S. Myers the other day and they were busy painting—getting ready for the showing of 1966 Fords this week end. What happened to the warm weather? The first part of last week it was warm and then . . . we had a reading of 56 degrees on the shop thermometer at 1 p.m. Friday. We knew fall had arrived but it didn't have to get so cold so quick!

The opportunity is the Peace Corps Placement Test, which is not passed or failed and you can't study for it. It measures general aptitude and the ability to team a I langrage. If. for example, test scores indicate limited language acquiring ability, the Peace Corps tries to place the applicant in an English-speaking area.

It must be filled out and brought to the exam unless previously submitted. ] Applicants should plan on about one and a half hours at the testing centers, unless they wish to take the Spanish or French language achievement test, which requires an additional hour. 11,589 STUDENTS AT BALL STATE MUNCIE — Enrollment statistics released Friday by Dr. Leo Hauptman. registrar of Ball State university, indicate that 11.589 students are enrolled for fall quarter. 42 more than Dr. Hauptman predicted for September, 1965.

Debris-Cluttered Backyards Are Dangerous Fire Hazards A backyard cluttered with leaves and other debris is a dangerous fire hazard, the American Insurance Association reports. The Association offers the following suggestions to homeowners: Be especially careful not to let dry leaves accumulate near the house or in roof gutters. Never burn rubbish outdoors unless it is permissible under local regulations. If outdoor fires are permitted, never start one on a windy day. Bum trash and leaves in a covered metal container. As a precaution, keep your garden hose hooked up and ready for use.
