Along Main Street

By JERI SEELY From the Hoosier history series we found two questions that every Hoosier who is proud of the state should know. They follow—can you answer both of them? Who in Hoosier history rose to become “Poet Laureate** of Indiana? His “Little Orphan Annie” has wanned the hearts of Hoosiers and kids, young and old, ail over the world.

Pa pens should be taken to the youth .center or police station by Friday. Speaking of the youth center—do you have any old games lying around the bouse, patching dust? I would venture to guess the kids up there could get some use out of them. We are still hearing comments pro and con on the center. Even if you are against it you have to admit it gets the kids off the .streets and gives them something to do. At repart there were 10© youth center members.
