With New are Nell Reed, vice chairman of the Kosciusko county Democratic central committee; New; Stanley Nice, county chairman; and Ed Haymaker, county treasurer. » Before treasurer New spoke, Stanley Nice presented a handsome desk pen set to former county chairman Jack Summe for faithful service he had rendered the party. New predicted Richard Lugar, Indianapolis mayor, would be US Senator Birch Bayh’s opponent in next year’s election, and recited a litany of accomplishments under Democratic governors and compared them with Republican governors. He made a strong pitch for support for Senator Bayh, stating Republicans are imputing all sorts of things to Senator Bayh, “even the failure of the PennCentral Railroad.” , Attending the dinner were Howard Weninger, Stark county chairman; Jack Francis, Wabash county chairman; and Don Link, Pulaski county chairman.

tRUZINKS wfc A test of the local economy might be the sale of lake property as second homes. Most certainly high interest rates have had a tendency to cool the building and real estate market, but in the Lakeland area there has not been this complete plunge as has been witnessed in many areas across the country. Local realtors have felt the pinch as interest rates have climbed to 9% per cent (if you can get a loan at all), but there is still some property moving. A Wall Street Journal article

last week made a big point of this fact in a page 1 article, stating, “If you think mortgage money isn’t tight, try buying a second home.” Heard on the radio a week ago was the fact that several lairge Chicago banks have ceased making mortgage loans. Developers are pointing out that many projects have been off as much as 50 per cent. Exceptions to this is the new Dutchland Estates development by Ivo (“Pete”) Heckaman on East Chicago street where he hopes to erect 16 duplex units on land purchased from Ralph Oyler. Groundbreaking is due very soon. Another is the Runaway Bay development on the southeast side of Lake Wawasee where developer Tom Leonard has announced the beginning of Section IV, to be completed in the spring. If this is an indication, the local

economy remains firm and strong. Has attorney Bill Dalton moved his law offices back to Winona Lake? Bill is secretary of the Syracuse Rotary club, and no one has announced that he is discontinuing in that post. Paul Levernier was quick to notice the item in this column recently about the fishing prowess of “Wild Bill” Cutter was “planted.” He says “tain’t so” in words that are hardly printable. Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Grindle and 17-month-old son Daniel returned home last Thursday from a vacation trip along the Ohio river in southern Indiana. They visited Santa Claus, Ind., and little Daniel wore a cap with “Santa Clausland” on it as a souvenir, Bruce said they visited numerous historical sites and came home with the idea that the power house in Syracuse should be retained as a historical site. This just might be something for

the Kosciusko county Historical Society to grapple with, we told him. Rotarian Bill Cable, who lives north of Syracuse in Elkhart county, was commenting last week on the forthcoming football game the Wawasee Warriors were to have with the Fairfield Falcons Friday night. “Oh. you’ll probably beat them 50 to 0,” enthuses Bill, and sure enough that is the way the score turned out, much to his surprise. We hear there are already nearly 200 members to the newly organized Wawasee Boosters Club, Inc. Harry Lemberg is president of the new group; Ev Ganz, vice president; Jack Stump, secretary; and Cecil Paulus, treasurer. They will meet Thursday, Oct. 11, at 7:30 p.m. at Maxwelton country club. Following the Plymouth game, they’ll meet at Maxwelton and coach Traviolia will show films of that game. If all works well, they plan to show movies, even of basketball games in season, at their meetings following the games. Wanna join? Come on out tomorrow night This writer witnessed an invitation to NIPSCo’s Jay Peffley to accompany a group of Sea Explorers on a canoe trip and Jay accepted if the weather holds out in his favor... more on this later. The death of Oran Conklin of Muncie, father of Suzanne (Mrs. Donald) Runge,prompted a column write-up by Leon Parkinson under Our Town, in the Muncie Evening Press last week. The writer told of his relationship with the deceased which started shortly after World War I when they met in American Legion affairs and continued as “Bud” worked and was associated with Allied Engraving company and daily turned out engravings for the Muncie newspaper. Parkinson said “A good man, a good friend, a man who fully enjoyed life, his family and friends.” Fred Dust, Sr., is getting along quite well following a fall from a ladder last Saturday (after nearly 50 years of crawling around on a ladder painting, decorating, and such) and sustained a vertebra injury. Ironically, granddaughter Robin received a fall on Saturday night and underwent arm surgery on Sunday, only Robin’s wasn’t from a ladder, right, Robin?

Hook's invites teens to drug abuse meeting, pharmacy career 'fill-in'

High school students in Syracuse and Kosciusko county are invited to a special pharmacy career orientation and dangerous drug seminar at Hook’s new drug store in Syracuse at Pickwick road, Wednesday, Oct. 17, at 4 p.m. A registered pharmacist and member of Hook’s staff and a representative of the Indiana state police will discuss dangerous drugs and show a movie. Afterwards, a free buffet dinner will be served to all students attending. According to Ahgust F. Hook, chairman of the board of the 169

of the new stoplights uptown, revealed Syracuse is not scheduled for stoplights in the village area. The spokesman added a request of this nature would have to go through the town mayor or president to the state by means of petitions and the like. This writer’has felt a light is badly needed at Pickwick road and state road 13 as well as Chicago avenue and state road 13. Wonder if town board president is up to some work on this or if he feels it would be justifiable? In slight criticism, the condition of the South Huntington street railroad crossing is bad! State treasurer Jack New, speaking at the Democratic Jefferson-Jackson Day dinner at the fairgrounds Saturday night, said he is careful to list on his biography which he sends out to newspapers that he IS NOT a lawyer. “Since all this Watergate business, I’m constantly being asked if I am a lawyer,” he said. Jack has been in state politics for 25 years and owns an office supply business in Greenfield. Have you checked your safety inspection sticker lately? Seems two tickets were issued for violations in a 10-minute time in Syracuse one morning and drivers are apparently getting lax on the matter. Christmas is just around the corner whether you realize it or not, at least for mental health gifts again. • A list of names and wants is available at The Mail-Journal offices and though it may seem too early to think of Christmas gifts, the deadline for returning of the presents to the newspaper offices has been set for Saturday. Nov. 24. Stella (Mrs. Claud) Heckaman, Kale Island, is out of the sheep business. A while back she purchased seven sheep and pastured them out on her son Roger’s farm just north of North Webster. One died, reducing the number to six. Last Thursday dogs got after the sheep, “making them wild,” according to Mrs. Heckaman. They jumped the fence and were finally corralled at the Wawa Drive-In Theater. Someone took them to the Kosciusko county humane society shelter at

drug store operation and a member of the Indiana State Pharmacy Board, the program is designed to make our young citizens aware of two very different aspects of pharmacy — its future as a career and the misuse of pharmacy through certain addictive drugs. Hook stated that the problem of illegal use of marijuana has reached epidemic proportions throughout the state. He stressed the importance for all youth to attend and learn firsthand about the perils of drug abuse. “The source of most drugs that are abused is mostly through

Warsaw, and Claud retrieved them Tuesday of this week for a small feed bill of $lO. What did he do with them? He took them to the slaughter house at Shipshewana, he tells friends. Says Stella: “We paid 135 apiece for those sheep, and we’ll probably get 615 for them, plus all the bother we’ve had.” Attend assembly in Wabash “What and how extensively they preach proves that Jehovah’s Witnesses are convinced that the end of this wicked system is near.” With those opening words, Ruben Cobos, Jr., district supervisor of Jehovah’s Witnesses, began his key address to a crowd of 1,918 attending the assembly of Jehovah’s Witnesses at the Honeywell Memorial Center in Wabash, this month. Dennis Gose, spokesman for the delegation that attended from the local area, said that anticipation ran high in regard to what Mr. Cobos would have to say about the nearness of the end and people’s attitude toward it. Gose described Cobos’ analysis as follows: “After commenting that many do not feel we’ve reached the conclusion he pointed out that ‘this matter is worthy of our careful consideration, for if the end is near this is a life-or-death matter.’ ” Mr. Cobos then suggested that all thinking persons examine the present day situation. He said, “Many indications are that mankind cannot continue as it is going. Authorities acknowledge this . . . growing food shortage, unchecked population growth, water shortage, effects of pollution, inadequate fuel supply and now even the threat to the oxygen supply. This all coincides with the evidence given in the Bible that we are in the ‘last days’ of this system.” The approval of those present was manifested by the thundering round of applause that followed his concluding statement, “It is imperative that individuals valuing life act wisely now before it is too late and this in the very near future.” Gose said that all delegates have returned and local meetings will now resume on schedule at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses. False alarm Syracuse firemen responded to an alarm at Augsburger’s Food Palace in Wawasee Village at 9:30 p.m. Tuesday, which turned out to be a false alarm. The automatic alarm went off at the fire station, police said.

‘black market’ and other illicit sources”, Hook stated. “However, bona fide prescriptions are also abused and we fell it is our duty to inform everyone about the dangers.” All of Hook’s top executives will be on hand to participate in the pharmacy career orientation —a career which offers a minimum of SIO,OOO a year to graduating college seniors. Hook said, “Invitations are not mailed to students, since mailing lists are not available from public schools.” He stated that only through newspapers and radio publicity could the invitations be
