April 30 Is 'Action Day'At WHS “You’re not going to do it by all of this symbolism. It isn’t going to be done by playing a guitar and singing. It won’t come as a result of the kind of symbolism that’s going on on television today where they’re beating up old cars with a sledge hammer and burying lawn mowers. What you have to have is people dedicated to a job over a long period of time . . .” This statement by Don Frantz, County Extension Agent for Kosciusko county, reflects the feelings of the Wawasee high school earth environment committee. As further evidence of these concerns, Ron Corson, chairman. Jim Alford and Jay Newell with the help of the student council are organizing phase tw'o and three of Wawasee’s participation in the solution of the pollution problem. April 30 has been designated “Action Day’’ at Wawasee. Students will become actively involved in the “cleaning up” of the streets and county highways in the Lakeland Community School district. Students will be participating in “Action Day” in the three communities of Syracuse, North Webster, and Milford. The county highway department has agreed to supply 20 trucks to aid the students in their project. “Action Day” is phase two of the three-phase project. The final step will be evaluation. The quantity, the type, and the location of refuse will be calculated. The cost of the “Action Day” in terms of equipment and labor will be estimated. And finally, the ways that these kinds of “pollution” can be lessened will be discussed. Data compiled as a result of the evaluative process of “Action Day” will be sent to government officials and the area news media. Phase one of the project was curriculum. This phase was conducted April 22 in conjunction with the national observation of Earth Day. Headline speakers for the day included Thames Mauzy, state

representative, from Warsaw; and Don Frantz, Kosciusko county extension agent. Other speakers were Mr. Alley of Warsaw, Garry Miller of Syracuse, and Wawasee high school teachers Ron Corson and Vernon Zurcher. Also participating in .the auditorium presentation were Wawasee high school students Bob Bell and Melanie Pifer. Mauzy emphasized that the legislature must be instrumental in the implementation of possible solutions to the pollution problem - LAKELAND LOCALS Mr. and Mrs. David Gilliland and son David of Mishawaka were Sunday callers at the L.
