A number of university campuses could do well to follow the pattern of patriotism of Indiana university. Besides having a successful bteed-in to get blood for soldiers in Viet-Nam, they have brought patriotism to the football field. In pre-game ceremonies students and spectators are reminded of their obligation to country and flag. In a brief program by the famed marching 100 (now about 150) under the direction of Ronald Gregory, the hand strikes up “America the Beautiful" and “The Battle Hymn of the Republic.’’ as a narrator reads the preamble to the Constitution and offers
TAKE A MINUTE We urge aU our readers to take a minute tomorrow. Veterans' Dav, to put but the flap. Let’s all show the boys in VietNam we are behind them. Our prayers and thoughts are always with the boys on the battle fields — especially those who grew -up in the area serve*] by this paper. However, tomorrow* we will say an extra prayer and think of them a little oftener as Americans pay tribute to the veterans.
ITS TIME TO THINK ABOUT CHRISTMAS
Yes, it’s time to think about Christmas even though the weather has been beautiful the past few weeks and it seems almost like spring is about to arrive instead of winter. In a column to be found elsewhere m this issue Senator Ilartke tells us parcel post packages should be sent between November l and-November 20 — it s airea.lv Novembei* 10. Don’t forget our servicemen at Christmas time. And, do your mailing on time. How would vou like to receive a Christmas gift the middle of January or in February?

the pledge of allegiance to the flag. Those in the stadium join. A color guard stands at attention and the “Ceremonv of Allegiance” concludes with the singing of “The Star Spangled Banner.” At the Washington State game October 23, 6.000 high school bandsmen from 100 schools joined in the ceremony, placing their hats over their hearts during the reading and turning to saluate the flag during the rendition of the national anthem. 1. I’, president Elvis Stahr, a former secretary of the army, is to be commended for this campus stimulus to patriotism.
And, as w e pause we w ill not only think of the boys on the battle fields of today but of those who fought and who died during the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, World War I, World War II and the Korean conflict. All fought to keep America free and that’s what the boys in Viet-Nam are doing today. Won't you join us and take a minute to honor our servicemen?
Then too, let’s remember those who i can’t go home. The thousands of persons ; who are in Indiana’s mental institutions. Each year area residents are ask to take gifts to a designated area for the t mental patients — the deadline for this I is December I. ■ i It seems like an early deadline, but, if it’s not done early how can the workers be expected to decide who needs what and which gift should go to whom? Remember our servicemen and those in our state’s 11 mental institutions this year and you will have a merrier Christmas come December 25. ,
m JOHN J. DILLON Attorney General We Shouldn't Abandon The State Constitution The following is in answer to certain statements by Republican spokesmen and editorial writers concerning reapportionment by John J. Dillon, attorney general of Indiana: "Republican spokesmen in the Indiana Senate and some editorial 5 writers are advocating the abandonment of the Indiana Constitution in reapportionment. They suggest : that the Senate be divided into SO ckstricts at random, ignoring county lines. They have said that this I would only be a technical violation of the Indiana Constitution. This, in my judgment, is an i erroneous position. This would not be jtet a mere technical violation of the Indiana Constitution, it would make wonny wood of the tap root of this great document. Article 4, land 6of the Indiana Constitution says that “no county shall ever be i i divided for Senatorial apportionment". A careful study of the history- of Indiana will show, that this was done for a very inportant reai i son. You will note on the map that j the counties of Indiana came in all J - r - -- - — -j-u-j-. ' Fulton and Jennings counties. He too has been active in the Indiana County Extension Association. | ’ All three of the extension workers have done advanced c study. I Awards were presented at the National Association's annual banquet in Pittsburgh.
sizes and all varieties. Now if we were permitted to draw them long and narrow’ like a salamander or short and jagged like a crazy 1 quilt. This would mean that the ' opportunity for gerrymandering would be infinite. Paradoxically, it would be to the distinct political advantage of the Democratic majority 'an the Senate ; to do this. They could take partisan advantage of their strong majority and draw the districts at random so as to greatly favor the Democratic party. However, this would be a very short sighted view. Not only would it violate the Indiana Constitution, but it would mean that after every change in majorities, the districts would be uprooted, and the stability of the Indiana Senate would be destroyed. "The Democratic majority in this Legislature has worked long hours at great personal sacrifice to meet this problem. Other Legislatures around the country faced with similar problems have given up in despair and gone home. We intend to make every reasonable effort to discharge our duty and our oath of office to uphold both the Constitution of Indiana and the Constitution of the United States”. This Legislature in its regular session comported itself with dty-! nitv, concluded the business in an orderly fashion and was able to ad-; journ well within its allotted time. Under Governor Branigin’s call. R came back for the one-dav session to make possible a strong bid for the atom smasher to be located in Indiana.

R. K. ("Kip") Sullivan Regains Consciousness His many friends in the North Webstf area and throughout Kosciusko county will be glad to know that R. K. (“Kip) Sullivan’s condition improved on Sunday to the extent where he had regEwned consciousness and physicians were assured drat he was mentally alert. Sullivan is a patient in the Norton Infirmary at Louisville, Ky., where he was taken following a multiple accident which occurred on Friday night near Hanover college. A telephone call to Thomas K. Warner, former auchtor of Kosciusko county, from William (“Bill”) Pearl, former resident of Sechrist lake, which is also Sullivan’s home address, revealed the encouraging information that Kip was able to move one toe on Sunday although diagnosed by physicians as being paralyapd from just above the shoulders on down. The victim ,had submitted to nuero-surgery Saturday - afternoon at a tone when his condition was still listed as critical and he was in an unconscious state, dating from the tone of the accident. Mr. Pearl and his family are now residents of Louisville, since his transfer to that city as manager of the Sears store there. He was previously manager of the Warsaw ! store and a member of the Lakeland school board. Sullivan’s injuries are to the entire spinal column, and the exact extent of his injuries as we go to press are not known, as hospital authorities believed it would be Wednesday (today) or Thursday before they would have a definite medical opinion as to the results of the operation and the extent of injuries received. He was first taken to a Madison hospital and was transferred to the Kentucky hosl pital when diagnosis proved nuerosurgery was eminent. ! Also injured in the accident were Sullivan's wife. Mary, and his son, j Danny. Mrs. Sullivan was in the j front seat with Danny, who was I driving. Sullivan was in the back seat. Mrs. Sullivan was taken to I the .King Sisters hospital in Madison. suffering severe cuts to her legs and many other parts of her body, but recovered sufficiently to jbe released on Monday. Danny received many cuts and bruises, but none of them serious, and was taken to the Hanover college infirmary where he was released late Sunday. He returned to classes at the college oil Monday morning where he is a freshman student.
Upon her release from the hospital in Madison, Mrs. Sullivan went immediately to Louisville to be near her husband. She is not alone there as her sister, the forma: Jean Cookson of North Webster, said.her husband reside in Louisville. In addition to her sister. Rex Sullivan, brother of Kip Sullivan, of Hartford City, Ind., is also in Louisville, going there as soon as he was notified of the accident. Rex Sullivan is also a former resident of the North Webster area but has made his home in Hartford City for many years. The Sullivans were at Hanover college in observance of “Dad’s Day", which was held on Saturday. Their daughter. Miss Jdl Sullivan, ' is also a student of that college, in i her senior year. Both she and her brother Dannv are graduates of ■North Webster high school. Miss Sullivan and a friend were in a car ahead of her parents and brother when toe accident occurred. When the car in which her family was riding was struck from the rear, it caused that car to strike toe automobile in which she was riding, but they’ received no injuries. Sullivan. 59, who has been a resident of both the town of North Webster and Sechrist lake for many years, has many friends stemming from both his occupational and his personal life. For many years he was a representative of the National Cash Register company and more recently has for several years gained recognition as a contractor and real estate broker He has always been a diligent worker in the Republican party of Kosciusko county, | an effort in which he has been assisted by h® wife. Mary. The near tragic accident occured j at 9:30 p. m. as Mr. and Mrs. making every effort, under very trying ' circumstances to do its duty j to reapportion. It may well be rated among the greatest of Indiana Legislatures. “There is on basis, either legal or otherwise, for abandoning the Indiana Constitution. We have not begun to exhaust our remedies in trying to support Indiana's Constitutional amendment, so that ail j citizens can vote on whether or not they approve such a change. This is the only way such a basic departure should ever be proposed by elected officials. We Democrats will, therefore, continue to uphold both tiie United States and the Constitutions."
Sullivan and son Danny were (hiving from the city of Madison to Hanover college. The Sullivans had left North Webster on Friday to attend the festivities and were returning to toe campus following a banquet held in Madison when toe accident occured. CRAPPIES ARE BITING According to area fishermen the crapptes, a very scrappy breed of fish, are biting now. No one seems to be willing to give the exact location, but most of than answer with, “ob, up around Wawasee.” One of Pierceton’s avid fisherwomen, Mrs. Harry Reed, was able to land near toe limit one day last week with the largest being three ounces under two pounds.
