abound ifi “I wish I had a penny for every roll of wallpaper I’ve hung in my time,” so says veteran painter and decorator Fred Dust, as he contemplates retirement. Now 72 years of age, Dust is known as “Mr. Painter” in the Lakeland area. And he should be: he’s been on the job of painting and decorating for 50 years. He began the trade in 1924 and had three years of apprenticeship worts before that” he recalls, coming to the Syracuse area from Chicago in 1941. Fred, whose health seems perkish, claims to work an eighthour day “Giving as good a day’s work as I did 20 years ago.” He has a physical check-up once a month, he says. Dust said his father was a ■ painter and decorator for 55 years before him, and his son Bob and he have been working side by side for 28 years. Dust wants to complete the jobs he is now on, and a few he,has promised, but he claims to be “winding down” with retirement well in sight. He hesitates to fix an actual retirement date. Back on the job Saturday following a two-week vacation is chief of police Orville Vanderßeyden. He spent the time “oti the golf course,” and he and the Mrs. visited with their son Reginald and family at Bloomington. Reggie is an insurance company exec. What’s new at the license branch: Sparky Sue Williams has resigned her post and taken a job with C. & J. Construction Co. Manager Jack Vanderford is looking for a replacement. And veteran branch employee LaVada Dean will mark her birthday next Wednesday, July 18. All she’ll say is, “I’m 39 and holding.” Did someone put the decal on town police car backwards? It looks that way. Paul Levernier has reactivated his 12 noon and 5 p.m. whistle. Following his letter to the editor answering an anonymous phone call which was a complaint against the whistle, Paul received some letters and telephone calls asking him to continue with the whistle. He has. This column is hearing complaints from uptown Syracuse merchants about the route the Police and Firemen’s fair parade is taking. The parade forms at the scout cabin area and moves south to Wawasee Village. “We might as well lock up,” complains one merchant. A young boy, about 2 years old, was seen last Friday on South Lake street, standing on the curb completely naked. He had his own way bf beating the summer heat.

This year’s fireworks were especially good, many felt. An estimated 500 to 600 boats were on Syracuse Lake to witness the forensic display. Tom Prickett and John Kroh, who make up the fireworks committee of the Chamber of Commerce, report taking in $1,359 in public contributions. Anyone wishing to contribute can still do so, either at Tom Socks Sportswear or Thornburg’s drug store. Before the fireworks began, teen-ager Brian Simmons had his own mini fireworks at the public easement on Front street, and a large crowd enjoyed them. Promising Bill Pipp, who was recently signed as a football professional with the Dallas Cowboys after a good career with lU’s Big Red, left Sunday for Los Angeles where he will undergo two months of summer training before returning to Dallas. He was home with his parents in Syracuse. Bill, over 200 pounds of all man, came home for the funeral of his uncle, Bill Betes. He flew to Fort Wayne and was picked up there by Lawrence Thwaits. Fireman Joe Hughes picked Bill up at Wawasee Airport and brought him home. Police officer Warren Swartz usually takes a busman’s holiday. He has two weeks off from his duties with the Elkhart county police department, and was seen scuba diving for Earl Money on Monday. We’ve heard of people stealing bathing suits from clothes lines and canoes from the lake, but ’ we’ve never before heard of anyone stealing a pier, bolts and all. Have you? John Lippman, a resident of the Lake Wawasee area for about 12 years, is building a house on the old Knoll estate, down by Wawasee Prep. About 12:30 one night last week, the neighbors in the area heard a noise on the lake. When they turned on their lights, they saw several people on a pontoon boat, dismantling Lippman’s brand new pier. Needless to say, the hijackers took off when the lights went on, leaving most of the pier behind. But they had taken the time to take all of the bolts off and dismantle large sections of the pier. Lippman was as astonished as we were to hear of the attempted pier theft. So don’t take for granted that what’s fastened down is safe. Keep an eye on your piers lake residents. a
