*Q3JZlNjfi£§ Loaned to us this week by Mrs. Georgia Buster is a photo from the belongings of the late Mrs. Estelle Swartz, a building located then at the corner of what is now Medusa and South Front streets where American Enterprises is in operation. “Hunky House” as It was then called was a rooming house for foreign employees working at the old cement factory. The building was later used as “Wilt’s factory with many changes being made. Year of the picture is not definite. Don’t forget the Kiwanls travelogue at the high school Thursday night. A number of young people, namely Vicki Jensen. Jan Davis, Stacy Rogers. Ann Brice, Polly Turner and Bruce McClure, devoted time and work in a yard cleanup at the Nelson Miles home recently during an emergency time in the Miles household, and Nelson adds they did a fine job Once again many gifts left The Mail-Journal offices this week for the Fort Wayne state school and training center due to generosity of those persons wishing to share with those less fortunate. Former Syracuseans, Rev. and Mrs. Noble Greene were seen in Syracuse Monday. Neighboring towns put up Christmas decorations on Fridayafter Thanksgiving. How about Syracuse’ A Saturday visitor in Syracuse was Mrs. Frank (Rosetta) Hummel. 225 Melville St.. Mishawaka, visiting her sister La Va da Dean. Mrs. Hummel Is a_ former Syracuse resident, leaving this community, she said, "S 3 years ago.” She told us how Syracuse had changed since she left, and. in fact, how Mishawaka had changed since she moved there. LaVada, incidentally, now resides in a mobile home near the entrance of the Ponderosa camp grounds southeast of North Webster A big thing among the ladies of the area right now are the weight watchers clubs, with chapters in Goshen and Warsaw. As excess pounds melt away, the girls become more ebullient

about the merits of their club membership. Suppose we can get one of these started for some of us fellows? After two wins for the Wawasee Warriors, they took a real trouncing Saturday night at the hands of the Mishawaka Cavemen on our home court. Perhaps the Cavemen had a secret weapon and no Warrior fans knew it. It had to be their coach Marvin Wood. Coach Wood led the Milan team to win the state championship in 1954 against the Muncie Bearcats, and this turned out to be jttae big historic footnote in Hoosier basketball annals. m * ■ JUt " m. w wmm COACH WOOD We asked Wood about this at halftime, and he replied, selfdemeaning. "Only a few of us old timers remember that.” Wood left Milan after that win. and went to Newcastle, then went to an Indianapolis school, then served as an athletic director for a number of years. He has been at Mishawaka for four years now, and appears to like it there. At the time of his tug win, Milan was a town of about 1,000, but now has "nearly 1.500,” he said. It is now part of a school consolidation, .Anyway, if we play Mishawaka again, we have to reckon with six men — five on the floor and one darn good coach on the bench. Tom Tuttle and Steve Roderick of South Shore country club are home from 1C days of golf in Florida. /, Many people have a gnashing of teeth when a report of an auto accident in which they were involved hits the news columns. But not Polly Bonar. She and her son were involved in an accident on road 8 recently and it was overlooked somehow by M-J reporters. “'Why didn’t my wreck make the paper?” she queried.

Tuesday, Dec. 14. Is the date set for the next meeting of the shareholders of the Syracuse Community Development Committee. The group has been awaiting incorporation papers. More contributors have been coming in, and the fund is inching toward its $40,000 goal. At the December 14 meeting, it is hoped a board of directors can be dec ted. Tom Prkkett, recently elected to the Syracuse town board, gets bis political savvy first hand. Thanksgiving dinner guests at his home on 201 North Lake street were his cousin, newly re-elected Mishawaka mayor Margaret Prickett and Mr. and Mrs. Philip Gutman of Fort Wayne. Mrs. Gutman is Mrs. Prickett’s daughter Carolyn. Mrs. Prickett is the only woman mayor in the history of our Republic who has been elected to a third term of a major city. And Gutman was president pro tem of the senate of the Indiana General Assembly in the last session and will likely hold the same position in the upcoming session. Old pols will recall that Joe Canfield was coming up for reelection as Mishawaka mayor eight years ago when the Republicans sought seven different individuals to run against genial Joe. Finally Margaret consented to run . . . and you know the rest. An annual event you will not want to miss is lighting of the Christmas tree at Crosson Mill Park Sunday at 3 p.m. We understand Blue Birds, Camp Fire Girls, Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts, were all responsible for purchasing a live tree this fall which with assistance of Joe Baker, James Wright and Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Lowe, has been planted at the scout cabin site and will be decorated for the Yule tree this year. Participants Sunday can enjoy a warm cup of hot chocolate fallowing the lighting. Watch for upcoming announcements, Kiddies, for the annual visit of Santa at the Pickwick Theatre and free show on December 18. Pastor and Mrs. Bob Mundy of Wawasee Heights Baptist church at Syracuse are hosting a tour of Israel and Rome March 4-15 of the ensuing year and are in the process of receiving reservations for the tour. A colorful brochure giving full details will be sent to anyone upon request by writing or calling the Mundys Have Go-Go girls invaded a Lake Wawasee night spot? . Ray Yoder has solved his Frog parking dilemna by a mutual agreement with a neighbor across the road. The state put up No Parking signs along the west side of old road 13, thus eliminating a number of parking spaces customers have been using, illegally it turns out. Look for the fence and utility poles to be moved back to make the parking area "legal." Maurice Hughes of near Chicago was in Syracuse for the holiday week end and was telling friends how expensive he found things in New York City when he made a business trip to the Wall Street section there recently. LAKELAND LOCALS Mr. and Mrs. William Leemon spent Thanksgiving Day with Mrs. Leemon’s grandmother, Mrs. Violet Cook at Goshen. Later, they visited Mr. Leemon’s mother who is a patient in Goshen hospital. Mr. and Mrs. Phil Campbell and family. Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Hart ter. Mr. and Mrs. Don Hoover and family, and Randy Jessop, all of Milford, were thanksgiving Day guests of Mr. and Mrs. Dwight Troxel of Bluff ton.

‘How Kids Have Changed’

When I was a kid we lived on a farm And I never did anyone no harm But kids sure change from year to year Seems like sane just have no fear. I pity the parents of kids in these times It’s sure a lot tougher than when I raised mine They shoot BB guns at windows and upset garbage cans And yet they want to be treated like a man. Drive like a maniac, some even kill Is that what kids now a day call a thrill? At houses and cars they’ll throw an egg But if they get caught they sit up and beg. Then they try to set fire to my leaves Always some new trick up their sleeve

Mrs. Hazel Kline of Milford spent Thanksgiving with Mr. and Mrs. Charles Smoker and family of near Warsaw. Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Summa returned to their home on r 3 Syracuse Saturday.

PREPAINTED ALUMINUM CONTINUOUS GUTTERING SERVICE 533-6373 607 W. Plymouth Goshen, Indiana

Some use dope and they go wild But the parents say “He’s just a wayward child.” They break in houses and they steal They couldn’t care less how the owners feel In my yard each week there’s a beer can or two They toss them out while just passing thru. Some of their clothes and hair, sure is a mess Is it a girl a boy? You have to guess You try to teach them what’s wrong and what’s right But do you really know where your kids are at nite? Not all kids are bad. I know that’s true But the ones that are, make it hard fa me and you Yes, there’s a lot of good kids left in the world today Please don’t let yours get led astray.
