a circuitous route to go from Syracuse to Nappanee. No wonder trains were so popular in those days. Mr. and Mrs. McKinley Blough, residents of north shore, Lake Wawasee, have two young guests at their home. They are Chap Tullis Blackwell IV, their grandson, and Jim Kahlenbeck, his friend, both of Columbus, Ind. Chap’s mother is the former Nancy Blough. *** J ; Everyone seems to be vacationing, and Mr. and Mrs. Harry Van Hemert are among them. They’re leaving Saturday for Pella, lowa, Harry’s hometown, where they will pick up a travel trailer. From there they are going to take a month-long vacation into the great northwest, visiting such places as Sheridan, Wyo., Banff and Lake Louise in Canada-, and on to British Columbia. En route home they will dip into northern California. Harry says, “We’re not going to San Francisco or Los Angeles, thank you.” $ sS Shirley Augsburger of Milford, third district Young Republican secretary and Kosciusko county YR vice chairman, was among those attending the national YR convention held July 6-12 at the Conrad Hilton Hotel in Chicago. Also present was Jack Arnolt, Nappanee, national YR auditor. The group heard Barry Goldwater, Jr., George Romney, Senator Charles Percy and Illinois Governor Ogilvie, and chose Glenda Fountaine of Evansville, Ind., as “Miss YR Queen.” Not many people know Syracuse beasts a champion bowling team. The Weaver Tool bowling team finished second in state competition at Logansport recently and received $l9O for its efforts. Here are the team members: Jan Byland, Doris Thwaits, Shirley Thomas, Fay Scott and Susie Brouwer. A South Bend team was first. * * * The four-county area vocational technical training school, in all likelihood, will have to go' its own way without the support of Wawasee high school, it would appear. In reviewing the feasibility study for the four-county plan, to include a vocational school at Warsaw and Plymouth, at the 1 board meeting lasi Tuesday night, its reception was only luke warm. One can expect the Lakeland board to look toward some plan including Fairfield and West
Ncble, but serving the same purpose. $: * It’s Dick Waterson to the rescue. A young man grabbed for the door knob at Syracuse Case Monday morning. It gave way as our young man fell back, wide-eyed. Sitting there drinking his morning coffee was Dick, of SyracuseNappanee Plumbing. He whipped out his well-worn screw driver and made the needed repairs as his fellow coffee drinkers came up with appropriate remarks oL “well done.” * * * Jack Nash, who worked on the firewerks committee with Joe Todd and Joe Gray, said the Fourth of July effort received many complimentary comments. “Seemingly the effort was well accepted,” Jack said. He added that late donors to the fireworks fund included Merrill’s Marina, the Kale Island Beacon, Harry VanHemert, Pickwick Lounge, Frog Tavern, First Charter Insurance Agency and Wawasee Golf club. * * s Mock’s Marine will observe its 50th year in business on Lake Wawasee next year, and Susie Tytler plans to let the world know about it. ❖ * * The Sign of the Fish Coffee House is located at the former Marley’s Steak House, but we’re not quite sure what it is. The sign says Dan Kuhn and his guitar are appearing back of the Raspberry Dcor on Friday, July 11. and The Generation Gap, a folk group, will be thq-e Saturday, July 12. Is it Lakeland’s answer to the Peppermint Lounge? ENGAGED — Mr. and Mrs. John Nyikos, Syracuse, announce the engagement of their daughter, Vicky, to Michael Gordon, son of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Gordon, also of Syracuse.

Cor. Brademas Interested la Case Os The Missing Mail!
Third district congressman John Brademas of South Bend has taken a personal interest in the case brought before him by Mrs. Kenneth Knisley of r 2 Syracuse concerning the mailing of Syracuse high school alumni banquet notices. Congressman Brademas referred Mrs. Knisley’s letter, which appeared in The Mail-Journal, as a Letter to the Editor, to the postal department. His answer to Mrs. Knisley and the answer of the postal department appear below. Mrs. Knisley said about 1,000 alumni notices, bearing a sixcent stamp and a return ’address, were mailed through the Syracuse post office. In cases of address changes or insufficient addresses, the pieces were destroyed and not returned to the return address, Mrs. Knisley contended in her Letter to The Editor. She said 160 pieces were later mailed from the Milford post office and 40 from the Goshen post office, neither with any ill consequences. Congressman Brademas’ let? ter follows: Dear Mrs. Knisley: I was glad to check into the matter of the mailing made by alumni of Syracuse high school. The attached report from the Post Office Department regarding the matter has just been received and I have read it with interest. The, letter, while detailed, offers rio consolation to the alumni group It this time. This certainly was a most unfortunate (and costly!) incident for the alumni group, and I hope there will be no repetition next year when announcements of the annual dinner and meeting are mailed. I have made known my strong feelings in the matter to the Department, and if you hear of further difficulties of this nature I would appreciate your bringing them to my attention. Thank you for calling this situation to my attention. Sincerely, John Brademas Member of Congress .The letter to congressman Brademas from the postal department follows: Dear Congressman: Further reference is made to your letter of June 17, with which you transmitted the enclosed newspaper article, concerning a mailing made, by the Syracuse, Indiana, high 1- school. The newspaper article referred to announcements mailed by the high school to its alumni with six cents postage affixed to each piece. The single piece postage rate for third - class mail weighing one ounce is six cents which is the same as the postage rate for first - class mail weighing one ounce. The classes of mail are defined by law according to the nature of the mail matter or the manner in which it is prepared. The announcements were prepared in the form of circular letters, merely contained a return address, were not staled and were not endorsed ‘Tirst Class.” From their outward 4 appearance and manner of preparation, they appeared to embrace mail of the third-class and were so treated by the Syracuse Post office. Mail is not necessarily considered incorrectly addressed when it is addressed to a street
address and the addressee rents a post office box. Mail addressed to a street address will be delivered there unless the addressee has directed otherwise. Many persons and concerns renting post office boxes do not accept delivery at their street address and direct that mail be delivered in ther box. If the addressee has not directed that all mail be delivered through a post office box, the mail addressed to the street address will be delivered as addressed. We trust this will satisfactorily explain the manner in which the announcements were handed. Under the circumstances, it appears that, the mailing made by the high school was properly handled at the local post office. Your interest in writing is appreciated. Sincerely,' . Walter D. Harris Congressional Liaison
