Syracusans were shocked and thrilled by separate events that occurred Saturday. Shocked by the tragic death of two youths in an early hour auto accident near Wawasee golf course when*the Corvette in which they were riding left the road and crashed into a tree, then a ceramic block building, killing both boys. Mike McCully. 20-year-old son of the James McCullys of Lake Wawasee. about a quarter mile west of the accident scene, was well known here. A brighteyed boy, he bad such promise. The other youth. Barry Holliday, was not well known here, but his 19 years of age aroused immediate sympathy at such an early death. The auto in which they were riding belonged to Mike McCulley, although be wu riding to the passenger seat at the time of the accident

The sympathy of the community is with the McCullys. 0 0*
The thing idtout which residents were thrilled was the very fine parade Saturday night, which served as a highlight of the Police and Firemen’s Benefit Association Fair. About 85 units participated, assembling at the Liberty Coach driveaway, going north on Huntington street to the stoplight, then turning west past the judges’ stand.. It was far and away the best such parade the community has witnessed in the memory of most who saw it. It was good, varied, orderly, and proceeded without a hitch and units from a number of surrounding towns participated. The like of trophies you would never believe. Who won first, or grand prize: The Elkhart Susettes, a group of young high-stepping boys and girls who delighted audiences in Pierceton, North Webster and now Syracuse. They deserved a first. Thev had as their mascot a six-vear-otoKorean orphan named Tena Weaker, who makes her home with herV* parents. .Mr. and Mrs. Lewfc Weaver of Wakarusa. She stole the show. <lncidentally. Tens is anxtouslv awaiting the arrival of her new “sister" from Korea, to be adopted by the Weavers.
There were attempts to compare the parade with those of the Mermaid Festival. It is bard to do, since the Festival parade strives to get more school bands and queen floats in their parade. The police and firemen deserve a real pat on the back, however, for pulling off such a good show. • • ‘ • Speaking of parades, this column has a letter from Mary Jane Bass, First Federal Savings and Loan Assn., 2 Public Square, Shelbyville, Ind., who i$ publicity director of the Triton Central high band parents’ association. Mary Jane has photos of her school's band, which won a first at the Mermaid Festival parade. If anyone reading this has one, please write her. She writes: “We are proud of our band and that they placed first at the Festival parade after waiting so long to march. They stood better than two hours just watting. We had eight of them in the fire station being given attention. And as they began to come around, all they could ask was ‘How did we do; how did we place?’ " • • • The wanton murder of eight nurses in Oiicago last week shook most everyone up a good deal, of that we can be sure. We heard one businessman say his wife began locking their doors that very night. He added, “And what’s more. I think I’m going right home to teach my girls to scream.’’ ♦ • • Mae Collins suggested the new Flotilla committee dispense with all the folderol and name Tom Prickett “Top Pop” for next year’s Flotilla! ■ • • • i 'Claude Heckaman and Delores Pippinger are sure proud of the trophy they won for the South Shore golf course on the Chanel 2S-TV I*utt and Take show. They won the match in which representatives from 16 clubs participated. Heckaman said all four shows have been taped, but only one has been shown, with three coming up. The program is on at 8 p.m. each Wednesday night. One featuring Claude and Dee will appear the first week in August, and two the first two weeks in September. The trophy is on display at South Shore.
For some reason rangy Seth Ward wants the record to show the portrait of Abraham Lincoln which hangs in the office of justice of the peace Chris Koher belongs to him. Hmmmm’.

Noble Blocker called it “sweet revenge’’ and rubbed the balled pate of former coach Cal Beck, seated in front of him at the Little League park one night last week, which his locals trounced (and we do mean trounced!)

When Syracuse jumped off with three runs in an early inning. Beck said that’s enough, if we just hold it. But Blocker, the tough competitor, yelled for more and got it We heard of a Fourth of July “cherry bomb” incident to which a Syracuse lake front property owner was “burned” about the foot. He had to be taken to the doctor’s office and get a tetanus shot. Boys, boys!

Plan Commission Discusses {foundries Hie Syracuse Plan commission met Thursday evening in the town hall to discuss a property owner’s building not being sfet back from the boundry line five feet. The building in question is one owned by John P. Cleveland, r 4 Syracuse. The house, built by Kenneth Goble of Warsaw, does not meet the specifications of the Syracuse building code. D. H. Lessig. Engineers, Inc., Warsaw, surveyed the property, as did James BakerT Both found the building was not set back five feet. The only solution to the problem is for Mr. Cleveland to move part of the house. Carl L. Chatten, attorney from Goshen, representing Mr. and Mrs. Glen L. Knisley who have encountered the same problem on Brooklyn street, Syracuse, stated the property owner next to the Knisley’s, has built on to his house a number of times in the past few years so that the building is over the five foot boundry. Both of these subjects were referred to Mr. Reed who will see notices are sent to the property owners and let up a meeting with the parties involved. Carl R. Reynolds told the board the Methodist Thrift Shop, a small business open only on FYiday and on Saturday afternoons, is operating in a residential zone. Willard Nusbaum. president of the Plan Commission said he was aware of the situation and steps were being taken to straighten the matter out. Mr. Reynolds said that west Pearl street years ago was zoned residental but should have been zoned for business the same as that block of Main street. The board of appeals is acting on this matter. Attending the meeting with Mr. Nusbaum were Hilary Bachman, secretary; and Mrs. Frank < Blanche) Bates; also members, John Runge, Paul Levemier, Roscoe Howard, Elmer Stucky, Vernon Beckman, Maurice Crow and Mr. Reynolds, building commissioner. Others attending were Walter F. Tyman and Mr. and Mrs. Glen L. Knisley and attorney Chatten. Jailed in Warsaw Gary Hollar, 24, r 2 Milford, was arrested on a public intoxication charge over the week end and placed in the Warsaw city jail. He was later released on a SIOO city court bond. Garold Hobart, 23, Leesburg, was arrested and released after paying a s2l fine for assault and battery.

Christian Science Lesson For Sunday “Truth” is the subject of the Bible Lesson-Sermon to be considered at all Christian Science services this Sunday. One of the central themes will be Jesus’ parable of the sower whose seed fell by tlie wayside, on stony ground, and among choking thorns — “but other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold” (Matthew 3).
Related passages to be read from the, denominational textbook, “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures” by Mary Baker Eddy, will include these lines: “The spiritual sense of truth must be gained before Truth can be understood. This sense is assimilated only as we are honest, unselfish, loving, and meek. In the sail of an ‘honest and good heart’ the seed must be sown; else it beareth not much fruit, for the swinish element in human nature uproots it.”
