Sen. Bayh Makes Surprise Visit At iSU Award Presentation To Father

TERRE HAUTE — Indiana Senator Birch Bayh added the “frosting to the cake” to the presentation last night here of Indiana State university’s Distinguished Alumni award to his father, Birch E. Bayh, Sr. As a crowd of 5,C00 looked on, the Senator entered the university’s arena at the time of the presentation for a surprise reunion, totally unexpected by his father. Bayh said he cancelled two speaking engagements in other sections of the state “to be with my Dad on this important occasion.” Due to the press of campaigning for re-election, Senator Bayh has not been able to visit with his father for almost three months, even though the senior Mr. Bayh is a resident of Rockville, Md.. a suburb of Washington, D. C. The father’s trip to Terre Haute marked his first visit to his home state in almost a year. He has been ill for some time and has not been permitted to travel great distances. The Senator strolled to the platform shortly after thei presentation was made, embraced his surprised father and said, “I’m proud of you, Dad, very proud.” The Senator congratulated four other recipients of the ward and talked with his father and the others for a few minutes. He later attended a reception 'with the honorees and about 100 invited guests. The senior Mr. Bayh, perhaps best known statewide as the basketball official who refereed more state high school basketball tournament final games than any ether official, had served as director of Physical Education for the Washington, D. C., schools. He retired in 1966. A 1917 graduate of ISU, Mr. Bayh became director of Physical Education upon his graduation. Following more than a year of service in the armed forces in 1918 during World War I. he returned to the same position at university. He left the post in 1923 to assume the same title with the public schools of Terre Haute. He later moved to Washington to take a similar job with Capitol’s public schools system. He served six more years as an army officer during World War H. While a student at ISU, Mr. Bayh met and courted the former Leah Hollingsworth, also a student. They were married in his senior year. They had two children, the Senator and Mary Alice who resides with her father in the Maryland suburb. pF**' \ 'ji K-' UW ■ / CANDIDATE — Alex Miller, 55, a member of the Silver Lake Lions club sir.ee 1950, announced his candidacy for district governor of 25-G. Miller’s announcement came at the Banner Night celebration honoring present governor Don Best of Elkhart on Saturday night. Miller is presently a resident of 514 north Harrison street, Warsaw. Lions Honor New District Governor At Warsaw Members of district 25-G honored their new district governor Don Best of Elkhart in a banner night celebration in the Shrine building at Warsaw on Saturday.

Along Main Street

By GEORGIA BUSTER October’s bright blue weather started out rather gloomy. Sunshine did fellow the rain, and the grass and fall flowers are pretty again. I went to Brown county, which is famous for its color in October, but not a tree was as pretty as the one in front of Red and Evelyn Marlin’s on Dolan Drive. It is beautiful —a maple, red, yellow and green. Syracuse may get its new Christmas decorations this year. The Business and Professional Women’s club has funds to help with the project and we do need new decorations. Regent Homes and Cambridge Homes held their annual rally days October 11 and 12. There are 100 to 150 dealers and their wives who attended the rally. Gaylord Jcnes and others from Regent and Cambridge went all out to make the rally a success. It was good to see Everett Crow at the firemen and police association fair dinner Saturday night. He had been in the hospital a long time, but back at his business now. He said he has gained 16 pounds. Talking to some old friends the other day and such names as “Smokey Row”, “Hunky Bridge”, “Skinners Ditch” and -The Pumpkin Vine” came up. Some of these landmarks are gone. Others have new names. As I was returning to the office at noon last week, a Mr. Ferrer of LaMoille, 111., stopped me to inquire about the Hoopingarner hcuse on west Main street. He wondered how old the house was and if anyone lived there. The house I hear is not much over bO years old and of course Jerry Hcopingarner, the owner, does spend seme time there in the summer. Jerry lives at Chicago, but comes to Syracuse for week ends. How are you coming with your Christmas shopping? Only 57 more shopping days until Christmas! The trouble is it’s hard to get the Christmas spirit with the temperature close to 80 degrees. After the first snowfall everyone will be in a great rush to buy for Christmas. While a number of our residents have already left for Florida, our weather is beautiful and we have had some rain. Reports from other parts of the country, “too dry for crops”. Hope all those who needed to register did before the deadline. With election only 19 days away, the candidates are really busy. In Indiana some of the candidates cover the state in one day. Good to see Louise Connolly out again after her illness. And we hop? “Butch” Fuller will soon be back on the job at Connolly’s Grocery. Head For National I' FFA Confab Stan Smith, Jay Outcelt, David Ott and advisor John Rodgers left at 8 p.m. Mon<iay for the National Future Farmers of America convention at Kansas City. Jim Scott, state FFA secretary left Sunday with his fellow state officers. The delegation will return late Saturday evening.

ceptance of the banner by Lion Gunter and Elkhart Lions president Gordon McKenzie and the remarks of Lions Warren and Best. Entertainment was provided by the Crum brothers of Fort Wayne who sang several numbers with guitar and banjo accompaniment. The brothers have appeared at several events and were featured on the Jimmy Dean television show. Following the activities at the Shrine building, members of the state council and.governor’s cabinet were invited to the Warren home for an open house.
