taiziNjOl AROUND WSv * v J The devastating reports that Syracuse Lake and Lake Wawasee are contaminated and polluted and unfit for bathing are propaganda of the worst kind and only serve as a detriment to the entire lakelandl area. This word came this week from bo less a person than Carroll Sherman, adminitsrative asssitant to the Kosciusko county health officer George M. Haymond, M. D. Sherman has been making weekly samplings of the water at various points on the two lakes for some time and has. found the water “fit to drink” n most instances. The reports of pollution and contamination are i “simply ot true”, he commented. , In a number of such water samplings made on Monday. June 26, he panted out the coliform (bacteria) count has ranged from less than 1 per millilitter to 30 per millilitter. One could swim with absolutely no , efar in water with as high as 5,000 • coliform count per millilitter, he added. Sherman has been making the water samplings in view of perssitent reports that the two lakes were polluted. He said there was a report last summer and fall that Syracuse city park might have to be closed to public bathing due to pollution. Nothing could be further from the truth, he said. He said he recognized the need for a conservancy district around the lakes and favored such an undertak-1 ing. but not at the risk of spfeading false information about the bacteria > count about the water in the lakes. ;

He observed that the lakes have an ability to “dean themselves about four times a year”, and this alone prevents contamination and pollution. , He said the thought that bathers pollute the lake, "even on the Lake Wawasee sand bar”, is a cruel hoax and should be dispelled. Asked if he showed his water sampling findings to others in Turkey Creek who have been talking poiluton, Sherman said he had, and that his records in the county health offce are opien to anyone who wsihes to see them. ♦ • • Bill Eyer, Syracuse rubber employee, has been on crutches for the past two weeks.

Little “Bambi’y the three-legged deer found several weeks ago on the Eisenhour farm between Syracuse and Milford, is dead. It fail- j ed to survive the effects of an operation at Purdue university on Friday, July 20, according to Mrs. Robert Rule. who. with her husband. had provided a home for the yvung animal. Bambi was run over by a haymower and one read leg was severed. When two attempts by a Milford veterinarian to sew the wound up had failed, the Rules contacted Dr. Annis, director of the Purdue clinic at Lafayette, and took the deer there for further surgery. 4 The leg was taken off at the hip. but the deer failed to survive the shock of the operation. Conservation officer Earl Money told the Rules about the young fawn, and they immediately made a home I for it. Bambi quickly became “community property", following a page 1 i story in The Mail-Journal, and about ' 150 people came to see him. Mrs. i Rule said people from Fort Wayne and Indianapolis were among those ; who knocked at their door to “see i Bambi”. “He became one of the family, | and we sure miss him”, Mrs. Rule commented. i• • • The Lakeland board has been interviewing prospective candidates for the principalship of the new Wawasee high school.

High Air Pressure I For Trailer Tires Boat trailer tires require a con-I siderabiy greater amount of air' pressure than automobile tires, ac-1 cording to the Rubber Manufactur- j ers Association. Most of th? 24 sizes of trailer tires on the market need j 50 pounds or more of pressure and 1 several are in the 90 to 100 pound range, the association points put. Trailer tires should be of the recommended size to carry the proper load, including not only the | i weight of the boat but the extra car- ■ go including motor, camping gear, | spare fuel tank and equipment. If i you intend to buy a larger boat: i this year and plan to use your present trailer, then your tire size should be checked to make certain lit can handle the additional load safely. The RMA publishes a Tire and 1 Rim Association standard that covers tire size, ply rating, maximum : load and inflation chart for boat, baggage and special trailers. Overloading can be as dangerous as under inflating the trailer tires. Tl»e pressures should be 1 checked before starting out when 'the tires are cool, and “bleeding” or reducing air pressure when tires I are hot should be avoided. Trailer tires travel considerably faster than those on* the automobile pulling them, in some instances 82 percent faster. If the trailer is to be stored in one place for more than 30 days it should be elevated on blocks, especially if the boat is not unloaded. The wheels should be taken off and the tires stored in a cool, dry place. If left on the trailer, the tires should be off the ground and the air pressure reduced.

Ice Cream: One Os America’s Favorite Foods By Karen Ringgenberg One of America's- favorite foods is ice cream. The people of the United States eat about three billion pounds of it a year. Cream, milk, milk solids and su’eetenings are the chief ingredients of ice cream. A small amount of some colloid or "stabilizer”, such as gelatin, prevents the formation of ice crystals. To these ingredients are added the flavor and coloring. “Frozen custard” contains eggs in addition to the ingredients mentioned and it is codied to a custard before freezing. Ice cream contains the vitamins and minerals of milk. The quality is regulated by law and depends on the amount of butterfat and so on. According to the Food and Drug Administration standards, ice cream should contain 12 per cent butterfat. Ice milk has about four per cent butterfat. Sherbet contains fruit juices, milk, sugar and stabilizers with a butterfat content of no more than two per cent. There are "imitation ice creams” that sell at a lower price than regular ice cream. These are made of milk and vegetable fats such as cottonseed and soybean oils instead of butterfat No one knows the origin of ice cream, but credit is usually given to an Italian who kept a case in Paris in 1600, for first freezing fruit waters. By 1780, ice creams could be purchased in Europe and in the United States. In 1851, Jacob Fussel of Baltimore, first manufactured ice cream on a large scale; Ice cream is delightful any time of the day and on any occasion. It can be served by itself in a cake roll, on pie and in punch as a float. There are endless ways of using ice creams this month to help keep the family cool during these hot days. So why not serve ice cream to your family plain or dressed up today. Give them a treat to one of their basic daily food requirements during June Dairy Month—serve them ice cream!
