tgJZINjgS AROUND K iW We are in receipt of a six-page tabloid college newspaper which bears the definite imprint erf a Syracuse lad who promises to cut his mark in the field of journalism. The lad: Al Bauer, son of Mr. and Mrs. Al Bauer, 118 No. Lake street, Syracuse. Al. a senior at College of St. Thomas. St. Paul, Minn., is editor of the paper. The Aquin. In the issue we received editor-in-chief Al, whom some of his colleagues call “SuperChief”. is the subject of a page 2 story written by Martin Hintz. The article, which points up Al’s interest in writing, said he started on the paper as a freshman at St. Thomas as a photographer, but states Al got out of that field fast — "no talent for the work”. He wrote his first by-line page 1 story as a sophomore, which Al remembers as “the most ridiculous thing I ever heard of”, which launched him on his way. He did sports in his second semester of his sophomore year. From this beginning Al moved into the news editor’s spot and edi- < torial director’s position during his junior year. Al worked the past summer on The Elkhart Truth where he irretrievably got his fingers into printer's ink. A 1963 graduate of Syracuse high school and a national honor society student, he plans to make writing his field. After a May graduation Al will be commissioned into the air force and hopes to land a job as an information officer. • * • It would appear that the Lakeland school board has the green light on accepting bids for the entire proposed Wawasee high school complex.—swimming pool. gym. auditorium, football field, the whole ball of wax—as there is no discernable opposition to any part of the plan.

The publicity given the building program in this paper last week was fairly complete and accurate. Most people feel the entire program should be undertaken at one time rather than attempt a piecemeal program. Our only comment would be: On with the show, and the sooner the better. There is an attempt to have conservation officer Earl Money transferred from his post here, but it has built up a head of opposition, we're told, that will be heard in liK dianapolis. the peace Chris Kober jokingly said to a friend. “And here’s one of my customers”. The State Bank of Syracuse set off another one when they were the first bank in Kosciusko county to institute the Charge-It" credit plan. At a meeting of county bankers at Mentone last week other banks decided to join the credit card system which will soon be nation-wide. Incidentally, the five principals of the State Bank of Syracuse were the subject of a glowing news story in The Long Beacher, a throw-away newspaper circulated in Long Beach (Michigan City).

said a county man came to his office last week upset, and explained, “I lost SIO,OOO today!" How’s that?” Blocker said. “The market on corn went up and I didn’t have any to sell", he said. Blocker had to think about that a little, then said, “In that case I lost $20,000. because I had twice as much corn as you had!" • • • Few people know there is a Coliseum Survivors Committee, a group of victims and relatives of victims in the Indianapolis Coliseum disaster of October 31, 1963, which is appealing for legislative help to speed settlement of death and injury claims growing out of the tragedy.

Michael Storms On On Dean's List Michael Storms, son of Mr. and Mrs. Don Runge, r 2 Syracuse, has been named to the Dean's List at Wittenberg university. Springfield, Ohio, for the first term of the 196667 academic year. The dean’s list honors upperclass students at Wittenberg who earn academic averages of 3.5 or better (4.0 is straight “A”) and freshmen who earn at least one honors mark and no failing grades under the university’s new freshman grading system. The number of students named to the dean's list for the autumn term was 379. more than double the number named for the second semester of the 1965-66 academic year, which was 183. This is Wittenberg’s first year under a new curriculum, in which students concentrate on only three courses over an 11-week period. Three such terms replace the two semester calendar used at Wittenberg for many years. If marriage does reveal that each partner has faults, it is not a license for either to exaggerate those of the other. The one thing young people in love don’t want is advice. peanuts. He drove off. and was followed by a state trooper. A mile down the road he was stopped and ticketed for improper parking on the road. He protested what he thought was a “$25 shakedown” by the trooper. Finally. 15 miles back down the road, before a local judge he told the story. The “kind” judge dropped the charge but made our hero pay $l2 in court costs!

Along Main Street By JERI SEELY This publication received an interesting letter from Mrs. Harry (Dorothy) Funk of Lebanon, Oreg., on Monday. She states they are having an open winter with only eight or 10 nights of frost and a few snow flakes that melt as fast as thev fall. The roses and Canterbury Bells have bloomed all winter. Mrs. Funk states the temperatures there are in the low 30’s at night and in the 40's and 50's in the day time. They have had lots of rain. * * * With her subscription check, Mrs. Lawrence Kuhn of Clearwater. Fla., reported it was 76 degrees at 12:30 p.m. on January 19. That almost makes one want to leave Indiana and spend some time in the Sunshine state. * * • Did you know that Mrs. Esther Charlton was “39” years old on a recent Saturday?

Milford high school principal Donn D. Kesler reported to us on Monday that he has in his possession the book “Johnny Appleseed.” “Johnny Appleseed’’ was once the property of Miss Maude L. McLaughlin, a one-time MHS teacher and former Milford. Mail editor. Mr. Kesler stated someone asked him for the book a year.or two ago and he did not know where it was. It was turned into the library recently. The person who inherited the book from Miss McLaughlin should contact Mr. Kesler at the high school office. ♦ • * Members of the Milford football club are planning to sell zip code books as away to earn money for the Lakeland football program. Next year it will be necessary to purchase equipment for the freshmen teams in the three schools. Each book includes zip codes for the entire country and will prove a useful item for the home as postal regulations require the use of the zip code on more and more mail. Let’s all buy a zip code book and help the football program in the Lakeland area! The woman who talks in her sleep is working her tongue overtime.
