to THE EDITOR t

Scores Town Board Action

Dear Editor: Mr Sharp, present Syracuse town clerk, puts his stamp of approval on the actions of the town board, stating that as far as he knows they have done a good job. He offers t 6 help Democrats And Republicans alike in setting up a town caucus. The present town board approved overdrafts in town funds amounting to $17,000. That means writing checks when you do not have the money for it. The state of Indiana says that that is “prohibited by law.” The act is a crime. The holding of secret meetings of the board is also prohibited by Indiana law If any one member of the board had had the guts to get up at a regular meeting of the board and state what was going on. none of this would have happened. The citizens of the town are now giving free water service and free sewage service to those 15 or 20 homes near the city park, for an undisclosed years as a result of one of those secret ftteetings. “I won I tell if you won’t" seemed to be the thing to do. 7 This brings to the surface another curious fact Harold Kline who resides just outside the town limits, near city park, asked several monQis ago if he could hook on to. town water and sewage services. He was told at the town hall what it would cost, etc., and that it was O.K Recently he employed a contractor to do the work. Mr. Sharp then personally stopped the action of the contractor and they were told that the town board had passed a new ordinance that required people out of city limits who hooked on to sign a statement that they.would not fight annexation. Later a member of the board telephoned and said that they had not passed the ordinance but were talking about it (in secret). Mr. Kline the next day did receive a registered letter from Sharp, with such information in it and a form to sign or he could not get water and sewage services. A week prior to this these same services were given to an out of the city resident near the new school, without any mention of such requirements. Mr Kline just happens not to favor annexation. Is this* bkaclmail? Any high school student would know better. It is childish, makes enemies for the town. Last year the town of Syracuse spent $340,606. This was not Goshen or Elkhart — but Syrcuse. Ind I say we need the best brains in town to run the town. We do not need Republicans or Democrats — but we do need responsible, civic minded people who will devote time and thought to the job. The time is getting short. « Is anyone interested — besides

Columbia City Youths Held On Marijuana Charges

An untimely auto accident northwest of Milford last Tuesday afternoon, resulted in the arrest of two Columbia City youths on charges of possession of marijuana. Bruce E. McClure, 17, r 4 Columbia City, driver of the car, and his passenger, Thomas D. Pressler, 18, r 7 Columbia City, are being held, in the county jail. Deputy sheriff Roger Fellows reported the young men were observed by several farmers as they picked the marijuana, which was growing wild along a ditch bank. Deputy Fellows reported the youths attempted to leave the area when they noticed one of the farmers coming in a pick-up truck. Another farmer blocked a Troad intersection with a tractor preventing the escape. Witnesses said McClure attempted to back his car up so he could turn around but the car dropped into a deep drainage ditch and rolled over on its top. j,t They managed to crawl out of a window which was partially submerged in the water-filled ditch. The farmers held the youths until deputy Fellows and Leesburg marshall Tay Hess arrived. LAKELAND LOCALS Mr. and Mrs. Scott Crist and infant son.
