'Christmas In These United States' theme

“Christmas In These United States” is the theme for the Christmas Carol banquet to be presented by the music department of Wawasee high school on December 3,4 and 5. This annual Christmas Carol banquet is scheduled at 6:30 p.m. in the Wawasee high school commons. The program will consist of a traditional American dinner. Christmas music that is common in our United States, dances and characteristic decorations. The Accident — (Continued From Page 1) he said. The questioning occurred in Frey’s office a short time following the early Monday, Sept. 3, accident. The accident occurred at about 6:30 p.m. that day. Frey said available evidence put the boat the area youths were in at about the area of the accident at the time of the accident. He said a number of them recall seeing a water ski bob up, but that they thought their boat had simply hit a ski. They were riding in an 18-foot V-bottom Steury fiberglass boat which Frey said was a “heavy boat” and that it was highly possible the youths did not feel the impact of hitting anyone. Driving the boat in question was Charles Samuel Mohler, 449 Medusa street, Syracuse, and riding in the boat were Quinter Hire, Phil Mosiett, Joe Snider, Allison Day, Scott Hire, Sandra Searfoss and Karen Walker. Day was skiing behind the Mohler boat when the accident occurred, attorney Frey said. Frey said the youths admit hearing something hit the boat, but that they were not concerned about it. He added that propeller particles, fiberglass particles and paint chips were sent to the state police laboratory for scrutiny and test. ‘Educated Guess’ Frey added, “The best educated guess is that the Mohler boat is the one in question, but we cannot be certain.” Frey said a Goshen boat belonging 4 to Robert Slabaugh was also under investigation at one time, and when the youths involved in the Mohler boat read accounts of this investigation, they thought perhaps this was the boat involved in the fatal accident. Frey said no charges will be filed against anyone in the accident, that what was involved was simply an accident. He said there was no evidence that the youths had deliberately left the scene of an accident. Williamson died at 11:25 p.m. at the Elkhart hospital where he was transferred from the Goshen hospital following the accident.
