Letter Written To State On Schools
(EDITOR'S NOTE: This is a letter sent to Richard D. Wells, State Department of Public Instruction, Indianapolis.) Enclosed is an article from the newspaper regarding building of additional class rooms in the Lakeland Community School District, and which states that the school board wants to get started on this program while the state personnel which approved this building program are still in office. Now could any state personnel approve any one erf the three plans put forth by the school superintendent? In the last four years, we have added on school rooms to the elementary schools to accommodate 500 pupils, and built a new high school which will accommodate 1000 pupils or a total of new class rooms for 1500 students, at a cost of approximately $4,500,000.00, and our school systems total additional enrollment is not more than 400 students in this length of time. It is very unlikely that the enrollment will be any larger this fall than last fall. If a certain factory does not open this summer, the enrollment could be as much as 60 or 70 less students. Our operating expense, or the general fund, from local taxes, had doubled in the last three years from $837,526 collected in Bible School Underway At Wawasee Chapel A summer Bible school and camp has been planned for Wawasee Lakeside ' Chapel, Lake Wawasee. according to Rev Harlan Steffen. Bible school will run June 8 through 19 for children four years of age through nine with sessions each morning from 9:30 to 11:30. Summer camp has been set for June 22 through 26 for ages ten through 14. Additional information can be obtained by contacting Rev. Steffen. Miss Sue Ann Traster Receives BS Degree Monday At Bloomington Miss Sue Ann Traster. daughter of Mrs. F. J. Traster of Syracuse and the late Mr. Traster, received her B.S degree at commencement exercises held Monday at Indiana imiversity, Bloomington Mrs. Traster and son Jay attended the graduation.

1967 to $1,477,549 to be collected in 1970. According to the financial statement that the Lakeland Community School published in the newspapers, we received close to $75,000.00 less state aid since our new high school opened in the year 7-1-68 to 7-1-69 than we did for the school year of 7-1-67 to 7-1-68 with out the new high school, and if we are going to get less state aid, all of the expense of the proposed new’ schools or additions will come directly from local taxation, or a bigger tax load on real estate. Real estate taxes are high enough. I do not think we need this building expansion now, Our school superintendent in an article of his published in the paper on November 13,1968. stated that we had increased our class room area from 211,208 sq.ft, in 1966 to 587,208 sq. ft. in 1968, an increase of 176,000 sq. ft. or an increase of 83 per cent in class room area This seems enough. I would like to know who in your office OK’d this building program. Please let me hear by return mail. Thanking you, I remain Yours truly, William Brammer R.R. 1 Syracuse.

Politics - 1970 Meet Your Candidates
Republican state chairman Buena Chaney has announced that Governor Edgar D. Whitcomb will present the keynote address to the 1970 Republican state convention. Chaney said “we are extremely pleased as a party to be honored by the Governor at the opening of our Republican convention. The Governor has made us proud by his strict adherence to his campaign promises of true economy in government. I am sure that the delegates to our convention will be pleased by his acceptance of the keynote speech position.” The keynote address will occur as part of the opening of the state convention on the night before the actual voting portion of the convention on June 18. These activities will occur in the Royal Ballroom of the Hilton Hotel at 8 p.m. on the 17th of June. This continues a pattern begun in 1968 of holding the keynote the night before the convention, to avoid delaying the voting and also .to insure a more quiet atmosphere for reception of speeches. Mr. Chaney has announced the appointment of Indiana’s Lieutenant Governor Richard E. Folz of Evansville as permanent chairrnan of the 1970 Republican state convention, to be held at the state fairgrounds coliseum. Chairman Chaney said “we are very pleased to have as our permanent chairman a man of such outstanding ability as our own Dick Folz. His able and wise guidance of the Indiana Senate during the 1969 session was highly praised by seasoned observers of the Indiana Legislature. I feel that he will offer our GOP state convention the same outstanding leadership which he demonstrated at that time and ably guide the convention parliamentary activities.”
