MAURICE DORSEY, Kosciusko county commissioner from the northern district, responded to a news article in this column recently concerning a sharp drop-off along the south side of the Om road west of Milford. Complainant in this case was - Mrs. Noble Fisher, a resident of the area. She is shown here with commissioner Dorsey inspecting the road. The strip she has in mind is between the elementary school and the Turkey Creek bridge. Recently a truck went off the road and upset. Commissioner Dorsey noted that the road had settled and that indeed a hazard does exist there. He said he would propose a guard rail for this section of the road. IRRIGATION or annexation that is the question per Bill Garrard, town attorney. MR. AND MRS. John Miller who recently served as missionaries in old Mexico have been in the Milford community visiting their relatives, Mr. and Mrs. Cleve Shuder and Mr. and Mrs. Henry Steiglitz who are their aunts and uncles.

Mr. Miller is the son of Theodore Miller who served as pastor at the Bethel church for several years many years ago. AMONG THE Milford area persons questioning when, what and where is something going to be done about the dangerous crossing of the Penn-Central track is Mrs. Kenneth (Darlene) Miller of Waubee Lake. In talking with a reporter recently Mrs. Miller voiced genuine concern for persons using the crossings, especially the Catherine street crossing and the Camp Mack road crossing which are so very highly traveled. With a large number of trains going through each day at the high rate of speed which had been predicted by the workers it is really something to think about, especially in light of the poor conditions of crossing this year already. Perhaps if enough of us write to Penn-Central Transportation at room 715, 15 North 32d street, Philadelphia, Pa. 19104. or the Public Service Commission at Indianapolis something will be done for safety’s sake.

WITH ANNEXATION taking in Twin Echos horse ranch Sis Casto said we now can be sure, “Milford is no longer a one horse town.” MOST MILFORD citizens were interested in the past Olympic games, especially the broadcasting of an area man, Chris Schenkel. Last Thursday morning a radio talk man from a Chicago station called Mr. Schenkel at his home at Tippecanoe where he was recuperating from an exhausting two weeks in Germany. Chris was asked how much it cost ABC to televise the games. He said it cost ABC and their many sponsors 26 million dollars so we could see the Olympics here. In contrast the first ones ever televised cost in the thousands! Chris was also asked how many miles he travelled in a year covering sports. Only around 300,000 miles was his reply! WAYNE BUCHER won a very valuable prize at the euchre club party he attended last week. For winning “low” he was presented a Halloween mask. We wonder if he is going to wear it during the festivities in October! HAVE XOU attended a town board meeting recently? Several members of MAD were at the September meeting and were amazed by board action! Denny Sharp was heard to comment after the meeting that more had been accomplished at that meeting than in 20 years previously. We don’t know if this is a true assessment nor how many of the 20 years of meetings he has attended but we’ll take his word for it.
