‘OuzinJ^ Colonel Joe Gray left Friday for Naples,, Fla., to return Mrs. (Joan* Gray and an aunt to their Lake Wawasee home. Mrs: Gray has an aversion to flying, the Colonel contends. Their son, Joe Haywood, is scheduled to receive his air force wings as a helicopter pilot at Fort Kucker, Ala., in April, and it is the Colonel's ambition to be present to pin his son's wings on his lapel. Gray, incidentally, is president of the Syracuse Plan Commission. •* # . Few people realize there's a person right here in Syracuse who is fluent in the Russian language.

Nicholas was born in Germany, although his father was bom in Russia. Nick admits to being able to speak Russian, but he says he can't read the language so well. O 3 * While it’s much 100 early to predict for sure, there's a likelihood that Joe Shewmon. announced Republican candidate for Turkey Creek township trustee, will be unopposed in both the primary and fall general election. Incumbent trustee Harold Kuhn hasn't given much encouragement to anyone attempting to sound him out on his chances of seeking re-election, for one thing. There was some speculation that former trustee Calvin E. Beck could be persuaded to seek the office. There’s some longstanding acrimony between Beck and Shewmon which originated with the selection of the first superintendent of the Turkey Creek Metropolitan School Corporation. But that's another story. Beck confided last week that he was “out of the picture," that the job would tie him down more than he would like to be tied down. He and Mrs. Beck want to keep their options open for winter visits to Florida where they could visit son Dick and his family, and other friends there. Aside from Beck, then, no new faces have been projected into the township trustee racs. and the Democrats, weak in Turkey Creek township, have surfaced with no probable name.

But we had no idea snowmobile races were such a big thing until Brooks and Sonny Kirchoff gave us a copy of the Sault Ste. Marie, Mich., Evening News, dated February 9 telling about the second annual 500-mile snowmobile races held there on Saturday, Feb. 7. Winning the event was Don Brown of Traverse City, Mich, piloting a Chaparral 793, and picking up $3,500 first prize money. He made the course in 11 hours, 18 minutes and 45 sec-; onds.

The group announced the formation of the Indiana Committee for an Open Republican State convention. The announcement that D. RUS-

SELL BONTRAGER of Elkhart would serve as chairman of the newly formed organization was one of the highlights of the four county fly-in. Former Hoosier Congressman CHARLES A.
