Hurrah For Grandmothers

A box of crayons, a walk in green grass, a loving pat and a fairy tale —put them altogether and they spell "Grandma” for 168 young retarded children in the Fort Wayne State Hospital and training center. "Grandma” is really eight women 60 and beyond who go week days to the hospital's pediatric unit, bearing time and love — or what the hospital staff refers to as frosting-on-the-cake care for children who crave attention. Our hats are off to these Grandmothers. The grandparents’ “job” is to get to

Accidents Go Up When Sun Goes Down

Accidents go up when the sun goes down. It’s a fact! To reduce accidents at this critical period the Chicago Motor Club has issued tlie fallowing list of suggestions: Cut down driving speed at night. Be especially watchful for pedestrians wearing dark clothing. They are difficult to see under artificial light. Keep headlights and windshields

FARM ® ■NOTESw?/ ..I•. , ■. . By DON FRANTZ Kosciusko County Extension Agent The question of a county wide Planning and Zoning commission will be considered this year. A number of tlie town boards have the question before them, the county commission is studying the question. Some decisions are coming some day. The first formal move came in a resolution adopted by the Kosciusko County Farm Bureau in 1965. They asked that the county consider planning and zoning authority. Their officers and public policy committee met with the Board of Commissioners. County Council and members of the Warsaw City Council. Town-, boards were invited, two were represented. Milford and Winona Lake. At this meeting it was attempted to find out if there would be a willingness to move on a concertedl program with the towns and county : going together on an area program. I The reason for investigating this approach was that if the present pattern of independent action was followed to completion, there would eventually be 15 different boards with zoning authority m Kosciusko County. I , All the towns would have their own ‘to finance plus their shares of the county program. It didn't appear to the best business in the long run even though it would be much easier ' to do it this way. There was no disagreement as to' the procedure but there was also no j agreement to start. The next step was to get some in-| div ; dual committements from the legal boards. The City of Warsaw was consulted and they asked for a period of study and referred the question to the city Planning Commission for recommendation. Hie Commission indicated they would recommend a program of zoning to include all the county provide enoungh funds to insure the city of I having a planninng and zoning authority equal in quality to the one i they have now No such assurance has yet been given and this is the J point at which the question has I stopped. The matter of financing is most vital. Exact estimates of cost cannot be given. There are two points of financing , both important. One is in the establishment of the Planning commission to do the planning. The other is the cost of doing the planning. There are apparently two alternatives in doing the planning. One is to hire a specialist consulting firm to do the job. The other is to establish a comission, hire a director and have him draw up plans over a period of time. _ The planning phase is important This is what laws would be based upon. It would not be reasonable to expect the town boards and county commissioners to pass ordinances establishing zoning without having a thorough study and establish long range plans upon which the ordinances would be based. • Mv job has been to conduct the educational program and coordinate, the actions among the IS legal bodies J involved.

Every week day. for four hours, the grandmothers read books and magazines to the children, teach them words and how to walk, play games with them, help to feed and diaper them, write letters for them, take them to physical and activity therapies, cuddle them — and do anything else that a grandfnother might do.

proximately 34 per cent less than I during the same week a year ago when 14.902 were filed. Mr. Nicolini said that initial claims rose by 146 last week due mainly to minor layoffs of foundry workers following cancellation of government contracts and of employees of a bottling company which shut down because of secondary effects of a labor dispute in another industry. J WINTER J PASTURE TIPS LAFAYETTE — Strong permanent pasture sod such as bromegrass, fescue or bluegrass is best adapted for wintering replacement beef heifers and brood cows, advise Purdue university extension animal scientists. | Winter pastures, they say, should have good natural drainage to lessen tramping damage in wet weather. The sod should not be pastured during late summer or fall. It may be advisable to harvest the first cutting of hay as round bales and leave these in the field, but in some cases the first cutting may be removed and bales from the second cutting left in the field. Strip ©razing i these bales will increase the carrying capacity of the pasture. Natural timber or hills provide protection from the wind, and corn stalk fields near the pastures will furnish additional winter feed. A loose mineral supplement and tracemineralized salt must be provided. The animal scientists say hay, straw or silage may be supplied when the winter pasture is gone or I covered with snow. A good supplementary feed would be 800 pounds of ground corn cobs and 200 pounds of Purdue Supplement A.

Touring State With Sens. Kennedy, Bayh

By DAN HEY. JR. Touring seven cities in one day was the schedule set by Senator Birch E. Bayh (D-Ind.) and his friend. Senator Edward (Teddy) Kennedy (D-MassJ, who was in Indiana at Senator Bayh’s invitation to help boost Democrat congressmen in the last days of general election campaigning. And for the 40-some state candidates, district chairmen and newsmen riding the chartered Lake Central aircraft, it was somewhat like being on the tail-end of a tornado. Both Senators Kennedy and Bayh are known for their energetic attacks in Congress and on the campaign trail and neither let up for a second in the tight schedule set up for them throughout the day, Saturday, Oct. 29. Departing on time from Indiana-! polis’ Weir Cook airport at 7:15 a.in.. most of those riding along showed up bright-eyed and excited for the tour under the guidance of Cordon St. Angek), state Democratic chairman, and Steve Lesher, press secretary for Senator Bayh. In the group on the state ticket was John Mitchell, candidate for secretary of state, Mrs. Mabel Striker, candiate for clerk of the supreme and appelate courts; and an assortment of candidates for judges of supreme and appellate courts, including Tony Champa. Paul Hirsch, John Murray, Frederick Rakestraw. Merton Stanley and Alan Yergin. Trying air travel for the first time in his 88 years was Eugene B. Crowe. Bedford, treasurer of the Democratic state committee. Mr. Crowe was a bit apprehensive before boarding the flight but after the 30-minute ride to Evansville, was elated and said he was contemplating a . trip to the west coast next year after finding this modern method of travel to his liking. Senators Kennedy and Bayh were met at their hotel in Evansville for tiie first rally held at a shopping center. An enthusiastic crowd of around 1,500 turned out in the chilly weather and early hour to greet him. The Kennedy touch was evident in his speech praising eighth district Congressman Winfield Denton and screams and squeals were heard as Teddy made his way through the crowd. A mix-up in the police escort here kept the press bus from making a quick getaway and threw the tour about 15 minutes late, a critical amount in the tight schedule that was later made up in Lafayette. Senator Kennedy was greeted in Evansville by signs saying "Teddy Baby, we loves ye” jand “Wage war on poverty not ; people”, the latter the only reference to the Viet Nam war noted during the tour. The group arrived in Terre Haute Ahere Senator Kennedy spoke on behalf ot Elden Tipton, candidate ' for congress in the seventh district, and was met by one of the largest ‘crowds of the day estimated at over 1 3.000. One young lady here was : near swooning after shaking Mr. ] Kennedy's hand, and siie exdaimied she now had met two Kennedys I and had one more to go, referring to ! Bobby who she hoped to see some day. President Kennedy appeared I here, at the same podium, in 1960.

The younger members of the audiences during the day had cheers for both Kennedy and Bayh wherever they appeared. In Lafayette the rally was in competition with the Purdue - Illinois football game which was about to begin but still. 1,500 persons gathered to hear Senator Kennedy. He was met with a mixture of signs here, some proclaiming “Young Republicans for McFadden” and “Hello Ralph. Goodby Charlie” referring to the strong attempt there to unseat Charlie Halleck. Ralph McFadden is putting forth a tough race to keep Halleck from receiving his 17th term. Senator Kennedy’ hit hard at this stop and cited the record of the Democratic party since 1960 when President Kennedy inaugurated programs to help students through college on government scholarships and instituted housing and medical programs for the old age. Pointing out the status of the economy today, Senator Kennedy asked how many would like to trade jobs now for what they had six years ago, and answered his own question with “None, except perhaps for Mr. Nixon.” “No place.” he said, “is tire choice so clear as in this district for backing a Democrat congressman in this election.” Senator Kennedy, Senator Bayh and Mr. and Mrs. McFadden attended the first half of the Purdue football game while the rest of the party retired to the airport for lunch. After the Lafayette stop, the plane then headed for South Bend where the airport rally drew nearly 1.000 persons in the near-40 degree weather. Senator Bayh, in his introduction, referred to the area as the South Bend “igloo” and drew a rousing hand from the Demo backers on the scene. Senator Kennedy pushed Congressman John Brademas of the third district for reelection here. When met by Republican signs in the crowds during the day, Senator Kennedy guipped, "They've only got 10 days left to learn. When they ask about high prices and tecession, they should know because they had more of them in the late ’sos* than there has ever been since.” After a private dinner at the home of Frank McKinney in Indianapolis, the group flew to Kokomo for a rally on behalf of Congressman J. Edward Roush, and then tc Gary for a fund-raising dinner and a speech for Ray Madden of the first district. The group ended up back in Indianapolis about 1 p.m. after one of the most tiring and strenuous politicking efforts ever attempted in one 24-hour period, SYRACUSE LOCALS Mrs. Mabel E.
