Both big windows at the printing business carried signs, one announcing the new addition (being a new son to Jerry and Sue) and the other the name Christopher Lee (being the name selected for the newborn arrival on Monday.)

Now comes word from sprilely Nell Webb of the Wawasee Motel. Nell says. “Why, sure. I'm putting out a garden this year.

Stan and Ann Harper of the Sleepy Owl have a real sense of humor . . . they have to have. In talking about the re-opening of their “all new Sleepy Owl." SUn says. “Neither fire, tornado or gunshot blast have kept us from our appointed rounds. We have returned." And indeed they have. They have added a pizza nook, a 50seat family room, and an enlarged parking lot. The entire decor is new, and customers will be pleasantly surprised. They had a January 22 fire, an April 3 tornado that destroyed their double-wide home, and some hapless soul fired gunshot into their front windows one night. But the Harpers didn’t harp. Rathen they rebuilt. We predict you'll like what you see If one could only be sure the weatherman would cooperate. Sunday's high school graduation would have been a real specUcular if It could have been held on the football field. George A. Carter, professional land surveyor who is doing work on the Syracuse-Milford road, hands out his business card, and the first thing one notices is that he lives on Hitler street, Kimmell George is married to the former Sandra DeGroff of this area Understand Tom Kitch was a bit redfaced Saturday when, during a lull of time for students at the Prep school, he gave a demonstration with a smoke bomb, and the local fire department responded. Seems the security people thought a boat had blown-up. not knowing of the demonstration going on. and called the volunteer fire department. Jerry Boger proved to be a real sharpshooter last week when hitting 97 of IM target* from 214 yards in the short-yardage class of the introductory handicap at the Golden West Grand American Trapshoot near Reno. Nev., giving him the winning title. Over 1,500 shooters competed in the trapshoot, the second largest trapshoot in the United States.

Tour Palace Following the meal and installation the Lions and their
ladies and guests toured the Palace of Sports which is scheduled for opening on May 31. Tim Moser served as guide for the tour and told those present about the several points of interest in the building. Moser stressed the fact the International Palace of Sports is a non-profit public foundation dedicated to youth through sports. The foundation was chartered in Indiana in 1970 to implement a King of Sports Youth program designed to motivate and inspire youth to higher achievement and better citizenship by linking the legend of Camelot to King of Sports scholarships. The Palace of Sports is designed to link sports immortals, scholarships and deserving youths. The Lions and their ladies were taken through Avalon hall where honorary noblemen and noblewomen of various sports are
recognized; through the great hall and the throne room where king and queen wax figures on regal thrones will preside over the kingdoms of baseball, basketball, bowling, boxing, bridge, football, golf, hockey, racing, swimming, tennis, track and field. ' They also saw the Hall of Heraldry, the Royal gallery where oil paintings of enshrined kings and queens by noted por-

the Counting House Bank where the giant wood chess set is found standing on top of the bank’s vault.
