Daddy, what’s a gigawatt? Its 1.000 megawatts or a million kilowatts Its what our country will need about 3 to 5 thousand of by the year 2000 . Right now the total generating capacity in the U.S Ais around 350 gigawatts, barely enough to fill present demands In many areas, reserve levels are at an all-time low What can we do as demand grows by leaps and bounds 9 We can be prepared to meet it Your local rural electric system and the nearly 1,000 other rural electric systems across the country make up a small, but very significant, part of the over-all electric industry And we re working with leaders on all levels to find solutions to the power supply problem Gigawatt is a funny word But we take it seriously lin EMC Kosciasko Coaaty ™ •• INDIANA’S RURAL ELECTRIC COOPERATIVES

Politics—(Continued from page 1) second bid against incumbent Earl Landgrebe Landgrebe, a Republican of the far right element, has been a Nixon backer even while the late president was going through the throws of resignation. Landgrebe told reporters in Washington at this touchy moment that he “didn’t want to be confused by the facts,” and that “when they take President Nixon out and shoot him I want to go along ” This kind of talk doesn't seem politic to most Hoosiers, and certainly articulate Fithian wall repeat it from the platform time and time again And with the winning margin given Fithian at this time, others in Kosciusko county running for public office have their hopes high for a November win. In Kosciusko county the big race appears to be for county sheriff. This county has had a Democratic sheriff for the past 16 years. This year there appears to be a good race going for county sheriff. On the Republican ticket is quiet but sincere Roger Fellows, a 11 year deputy sheriff who won in the primary over a bevy of candidates. On the Democratic side of the ticket will be John Hammersley. long time state trooper out of the Ligonier Post. Also quiet, Hammersley is an able candidate. One can expect no mudslinging between these two fine candidates. Other races for county offices have drawn less interest, but they will nonetheless heat up during the month of September and October There will be more on these races in the weeks ahead. As of now. it promisesSx)be an interesting twomonthsahead in the political arena.

Tour-eyes' on Zaire bout

Dear Sir: Have received a letter from the notorious gate-crasher. “FourEyes” O’Fogarty who is in Zaire for the Ali-Foreman affair. Mr. O’Fogarty was born on the Lower East Side of Orlando. Nebraska where he rubbed elbows with the local toughs. Many of these were men and most were boxers. In his book. “Four-Eyes” says Ali is 7 to 5 to defeat Mr. Foreman. He adds that the odds are 100 to 1 that he (O’Fogarty) wall not buy a ticket to see this Satanic struggle. (Mr. O is swift with a malaprop.) Our man in Zaire has not coughed up money to enter any arena since the Cubs last appeared in the World Series. (He insisted that it would bring good luck to Wrigley’s warriors.) I do not believe everything O’Fogarty says but he has seen a half a score of heavyweight champs rise and fall. He also thinks that New York city will one day produce another s s’° levy—(Continued from page 1) along with the Wawasee Heights Baptist church at the time they tapped on to the water line run up the hill by the school corporation. Business manager Lantz said he had checked his records and had received a reimbursement in 1971 but the records did not show what it was for. This wall be checked, however, it was felt no other revenue is due the board. Board members also approved the transportation handbook prior to adjourning. One injured in two-car crash Mrs. Roy (Laura) Richcreek, 70, of Goshen received emergency room treatment at Goshen hospital Saturday for bruises to the right leg and a right knee abrasion sustained in a twocar collision involving a Syracuse youth. The accident occurred at CR 1000 N and CR 500E State officers reported Samuel W. Ludwig, 16, r 3 Syracuse, was eastbound on road 1000 and Roy Rickcreek, 69, driver of the other auto was northbound on road 500 at the time of collision. Ludwig was cited for failure to yield the right-of-way. Damage was estimated at SSOO to the Syracuse car and S9OO to the Richcreek auto. No injuries in mishap County officers investigated a two vehicle collision Saturday evening resulting in $265 in damages at CR 550 N and CR 750E involving North Webster and Indianapolis drivers.

heavyweight titlist. He mentioned Tunney, Jack Sharkey and Jim Braddock. None of these jaspers had the firepower of a George Foreman, come to think of it. And none of the three could fire off the combinations with the speed of Ali what's-his-name. These are not my opinions. I am quoting O’Fogarty. The odds on “Four-Eyes” getting in on a “freebie"? On past performances I’d have to say that the greatest of all living gatecrashers will probably be seated at ring-side disguised as Gunboat Smith, Mickey Walker or Rory Calhoun O’Fogarty is sure that Ali will decision Foreman by dint of superior footwork and experience. Congratulations on your newspaper which gets bigger and better. The four-color pix are knockouts. Sincerely, Bernard Jones R. 1 Syracuse No injuries in Wednesday mishap No injuries were sustained in a two-vehicle collision last Wednesday and investigated by county officers on Indiana 13 south of Syracuse. Drivers were James C. Skillen. 16, r 4 Syracuse, and Vicki Wilson K 18, r 3 Syracuse. Both autos were northbound at the time. Damage to the Wilson auto was S9OO with $950 to the other auto.
