State Highway To Open Bids In Atkinson Hotel INDIANAPOLIS — A change in the location of highway bid openings was announced by the state highway commission. Effective July 29, 1969, bids on all highway construction, maintenance and traffic contracts will be opened on the top (ballroom) floor of the Atkinson Hotel, Indianapolis. In recent years, the o penings have been held in a small section of the basement cafeter; ia, state office building. Announcing the change, commission chairman Ruel W. Steele said the commission was cooperating with contractors in the interest of effecting a more orderly process in the receipt and subsequent opening of bids. Contractors themselves, Steele said, had requested the change in location. He pointed out that for many years the highway deparment’s bid openings were held at the Claypool Hotel, now being razed. Mr. Steele emphasized that the bid openings are open to all news media and the general public, and all interested parties are- invited to attend. The sealed bids are opened and read and then returned to the highway engineering department to be computerized for accuracy. The Chief Engineer then j submits them to the highway commission for approval or rejection. If they are approved, a contract is let to the lowest bidder.

Along Main Street By GEORGIA BUSIER Just about five years ago the town of Syracuse decided to close the channel at Syracuse, known as “The Race”. There was quite a lot of talk both ways. Some did not want it closed, others thought it was a good thing. Most of the “old-timers’* did not want to see the landmark go, but it had to, due to the lake levels, not enough water was going through it to keep it from becoming stagnant. It’s hard to believe now as one travels down Dolan Drive that it was ever a waterway. « « * The flowers have been beautiful and gardens are growing despite the cool weather. Swimming lessons have started at the city park and at Wawasee high school. * * * Richard Grayson of Columbus visited Tom Burton at Lake Wawasee recently. Dick caught a big fish, but had it cleaned beforeshe learned of the fishing contest. May have won first prize, who knows. » * ♦ Our neighbor here, Jay Peffley of NIPSCo, has been on vacation. Says he got caught up with some painting and things around the house. « « « Seems that when I said that the cotton from the willow trees was falling I raise a question as to whether it was willow or cottonwood. Opal Keim was one who thought I was talking about cottonwood, until she read in a book about the cotton from willow, so she told me I was right. There is a difference in the size of the “cotton” that falls from the two trees. The cotton from the cottonwood is larger and more like cotton. * * ♦ The Fred Bylands have returned home and are back to work after a vacation trip to New York state —she to the bank and he to his jewelry store. Believe they were at Niagara Falls when the waterflow over the falls was stopped. * * * A C-141 Starlifter plane of the

Airlift Command landed recently at Bakalar AFB near Columbus, bringing back 249 army reserves from Viet Nam. The band played “Back Home Again in Indiana” and friends and relatives were on hand to greet the veterans, many of whom will be released from active duty.
