Wed., Jan. 14, 1970 — MAIL-JOURNAL

'QaiziNJvS mehO nH The residents on the east side of Lake Wawasee became particularly indignant last week when the heavy snowfall drifted their roads shut and committed many of them to being literally snowbound. To make matters worse, what roads were open were covered with a glaze of ice. The subzero weather did not add to their comfort in any way, either. As a result of the blocked roads, a number of these snowbound residents called the state highway garage at Warsaw, only to find out that road 13A (one of the most impassable' was no longer a state highway, but is now a county highway. The calls went into the county highway garage, also at Warsaw, and to the home of northern county commissioner Maurice Dorsey. The indignant citizens were told the state highway is constantly getting more miles of roads to maintain, and that they were in the process of turning some secondary roads over to the county, and 13A was one of these. These residents have told this column they feel like they are county taxpayers and deserve the same attention when it comes to keeping their roads open as do taxpayers in the Warsaw area. And, of course, they have a valid point. The area in question is in the farthest northeastern corner of Kosciusko county, and the roads there are up and down, in and out, and drifts erf snow easily pocketed in these crannies. This columnist was told the roads were blocked for two days, at which time calls to the county highway office and the home of commissioner Dorsey became the most rapid and heated. On Friday afternoon, a Syracuse party, intent on driving to the accident scene just west of Cromwell where Raymond Newby was killed, was stuck two times in drifted snow. It was later Friday afternoon that county highway trucks were plowing out some of the roads in the area in question, in response to the public protestations. * * • And aside to the cold sub-zero weather last Wednesday night: The sprinkling system at Vega Homes froze and burst and water poured into the offices from above, causing water damage to a considerable amount of papers. • * * Coming down the street, all bundled up, was Don Baumgardt, stating cryptically: "This is ridiculous!” ** * • The Bob Clevengers received a call from their south Huntington street neighbors, the Dr. Ralph Moores, from Tucson, Ariz., on Friday night, stating they had purchased a Condominium in that city, and asking about the chilly weather back in Indiana. * • • The community will soon lose Bob and June Spearman, to neighboring Ohio. Bob. manager of G W Food Products here, will take over management of the plant at Archbold. Ohio, in the not-to-dis-tant future. f * * * BUI Beemer has turned out

to be the real outdoors man. Now he has a snowbuggy of sorts (no one seems to know the real name of it) with extra wide tires. It appears to be able to mount any drift. * * * Gaylord and Evelyn Jones of East Shore Drive, Syracuse Lake, will soon be off to Houston, Tex., to attend a home show at which Monarch Industries' Coppes, Inc., plant at Nappanee will have a display. A£ the same time they hope to visit at Brownsville, and other points of interest. * * * Bill Brammer is often told he ( is a “dead ringer” for movie * comedian Andy Divine. * * * Martin Levernier, one to never leave a stone unturned, is now passing out small copies of Elbert Hubbard's “Message To Garcia.” Each graduate of WHS should have this little message as required -reading. .* * * A card from Florida's Silver Springs states Mr. and Mrs. Allen McDonald "and boys,” of ir 1 Milford, were recent visitors there. Then there comes this jumbo card from Miami, from Jake, Pat, Linda and Mike Bitner, telling of the wonderful places they’ve been visiting in the Sunshine State. The youngsters flew home last Thursday and Jake was to be back at Regent and Pat at Auer's this week. * * * County Democrats could have a fight to determine who is their next county chairman. The nod appears to be going to young attorney Stan Pequignot, but Jack Summe, former candidate for state senate and mayor of Warsaw, is in there making a hid for the post. . Jack says he has t,he experience of years, and that Stan is associated with a “Republican” * law firm, not a good thing for county Democrats who are a weak jjarty as it is and should not be diluted further. * * * Many of us don’t know what poor losers we are until we try dieting. ** * * John Lantz, office manager at G W Food Products, proved to be quite the practical prankster-. Monday p.m., while county nurse Barb McOure was doing some routine checking at G*W, John made a makeshift sling out of an old towel and walked through the room like he just fell off a 19-story building! * * # North Webster bank president J.
