THE MAIL-JOURNAL —Wed., Mar. 7,1973

AROUND Sw The Warsaw Optimist club, Robert H. Kindt, President, has been writing friends in the Syracuse area, suggesting the formulation of such a club in the Lakeland area. He writes: “An Optimist club is a voluntary organization of civicminded men banded together for progressive thought and action in community service. Membership, which is by invitation only, is composed of citizens drawn from business, industry, agriculture and the professions. Members are motivated by the desire to contribute to the community from which they and their families draw daily benefits. There is no greater opportunity for participation in community affairs and service than in an Optimist club.” One part of the sign in front of First Charter on Main street reads “Jones-Tuttle & Associates,” but no one seems to know what they do. Dot Stiver tried to observe her birthday quietly last Wednesday, but didn’t quite get away with it. The girls at the

Syracuse Case toasted her, anyway. She had the last word, however: she wasn’t telling which birthday it was. Tall, handsome and congenial Don Lozier, principal of the 940student Warsaw junior high school, has this sign hanging in his office: “Old principals never die; they just lose their faculties.” Don graduated from Leesburg high school in 1948 where he was a Leesburg Blue Blazer. “Spring is just around the corner. I saw geese returning and my first robin on March 1, sure signs of an early spring,” said conservation officer Earl Money as he stuck his head in the newspaper office Friday morning. Hope you’re right, Earl, it never comes too soon for this writer. The three day showing of Billy Jack at the Pickwick Theatre in February, broke house records when playing to sell-out crowds on Friday and Saturday, with excellent business on Sunday. Manager Tim Yeager reported the showing for the engagement was the best at the theatre house than for any other movie ever played there since Roger Vore took over as owner. The handsome bearded man assuming the position left vacant at NIPSCo by Larry Claybaugh is Antonio Sanchez of Gary. He has a wife, Judy, and five

children, Kim Marie 16, Tony IS, Mary Beth 10, Dianna Dale 9, and Phyllis 4. If you have not traveled on Pickwick Road lately — Beware! Coining something said recently by town board member Bud Smith, in referring to another area with chuck holes, and the little Volkswagen hasn’t been seen since. It is really that bad! Have you checked the price of just plain, good old ground chuck lately? It’s frightening. Paul and Ruth Kerlin have returned from a month’s vacation, two weeks of which were spent in Hawaii and a visit to four of the islands. Avid golfers, they took their golf sticks along and got in lots of golf, plus attended, the televised Hawaiian Open. We missed them in the tv scanning of the crowds at the open, however, Tom Tuttle caught the South Shore couple, even describing their attire. En route home, the couple spent a few days in famed Las Vegas, then flew to Sarasota, Fla., for another week of fun. “It was beautiful,” said Linda Baker this week regarding an eight day tour trip to Hawaiii taken by Mrs. Baker and hubby Joe. She added they plan to go again in a few years. The Syracuse masonic lodge will observe its 100th anniversary celebration this year, having been chartered May 27, 1873. Truck and motorcycle plates expired the last day of February and a number of violators are being picked up in the Syracuse area for expired plates. White parking space markings were painted in the east half of 100 block of East Main (in front of First Charter and the library) Tuesday afternoon. With temperatures in the high 60’s, why notldo some painting and sprucing up? Ann and Harold Gallahan, of B & K Root Beer, are having to advertise for car-hop help this year for the first time in the 20 years they have operated their stand south of Syracuse. They are opening this week end. We learn now that Miss Joan D.

Is there a secret teacher list?

Hie list of the 24 Lakeland teachers who went to Indianapolis last Monday evening to protest House Bill 11-97 in the Senate hearing was refused The MailJournal for publication this week. The request for the list was made to Mrs. Paul (Norma) Rush, a member of the Lakeland Community Education Association, publicity committee, who turned in the article for publication last week. The group of teachers joined an estimated 8,000 educators in Indianapolis to protest , the House Bill and to lend their support to fellow teachers in their quest for Equal Rights for Children. Refuse Names Hie Mail-Journal considered the list of the 24 teachers attending the Indianapolis meeting at their own expense to be germane to the story we were asked to publish. The teachers thought otherwise; and refused to give the list on the grounds that no list was kept and that “we might miss someone.” Mrs. Rush said she had no right to submit a list of names and thought the list “is not news” anyway. When reminded that this was a blatant case of “news management by the school teachers,” Mrs. Rush became more adamant concerning the secret list of names, stating she was authorized to issue a news release, but not a list of x-x-x-x-x-x<<-x<-x-x-x-x-?i%::%-SR<w:<%-ss<iSi?ssH;s

Weisenberger, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. F. Grove Weisenberger of Indianapolis and r 1 Syracuse, on Monday, March 5, became the first woman in Indiana to open an office for a member flrm of the New York Stock Exchange when she unlocked the door of her new offices for R. Rowland & Co., Inc., suite 1313, Circle Tower, Indianapolis. She became registered by the New York Stock Exchange in June 1959. The vivacious brunette says, “A woman’s natural shopping instincts lead her to make sound purchases. When it comes to the investment world, more women are becoming involved than ever before with percentages running as high as 54 per cent of the stock owned in the country held by women investors either through direct inheritances, investment of estates or direct purchases on a planned basis.” Be cautious when the salesman says he’s got a gift for you.

names. She referred The Mail-Journal to Milton Brice, president of LCEA for the list. Mr. Brice also refused to submit the list for publication. Honorable Institute When The Mail-Journal reminded both Mrs. Rush and Mr. Brice that lobbying for legislation one considers desirable is an honorable institution, and that no one need hide a desire to influence legislation, the secret list of names became no more unstuck. Hie question, then, becomes: what are the teachers afraid of? Is there a breach between the teaching community and the taxpayers who support its school and all its activities? We would think not, but apparently this group of classroom teachers think so. It becomes a matter of who is managing the news. Are the teachers right in submitting an article for publication, but refusing to tell who attended the meeting? We think not. The publishers of The Mail-Journal think it is their job to print all* the news they can that is of public interest. When 24 tried and true teachers of our community drive as far as Indianapolis to influence legislation they think is in their best interest, certainly the public has a right to more than a cursory account of the trip, and, indeed, has a right to know who the teachers are. Wouldn’t you agree?
