Perry Federspiel. trombone; Glen Wells, trumpet; Mora Huber and Richard Storey, saxophones; . Edward Melching. banjo, and H. Ross Franklin, leader and manager, piano, in the back. Turkey Creek township assessor Harry’ VanHemert has the new 76 Bicentennial flag at his office, purchased from the local Legion we are told We stand advised by Father Charles Kunkel, current ad* ministralor of the Prep school, that the school has not been sold (per several lines in this column last week.) Father Kunkel did say. ’ While the Crosier Fathers themselves have decided not to use the Prep school property for any future programs, they have not actually. formally or officially, decided to sell the property It looks very much hke this might be the decision to meet for the Crosiers in the weeks or months ahead In fact, there will be five Crosiers living here for the next two weeks, two months, two years, or as long as necessary until the Crosiers make a final decision ‘ Another old landmark from the Syracuse community is the otd greenhouse on Chicago avenue, long owned by the Ralph Oylers. Really nice is the painting for our Bicentennial year now appearing on the front of the Heyde gas station — the hand of Ann Nyikos A ante this week from Ruth (Unrue) Mollenhour of Temple Terrace. Fla_ agreed Cranberry Hill to be a short distance north of . the Syracuse Methodist church (St. Andrew’s). “For many years my family home was the first farm just over the hill. My parents were Mr. and Mrs. Sylvester Vnrue." she added. This is in the area where the big black cat has been seen this summer, however, no reports have been received in our offices of the cat here since Mike Smith reportedly got a shot at the cat but missed and the cat took off on a run. Perhaps it has moved to the neighboring community A ftsh census is underway for Lakes Wawasee and Syracuse, according to knowledgeable sources. The field work was done earlier in the summer and Department of Natural Resources

statisticians are now doing the computer work on the census. When completed, it will provide natural resources personnel with accurate estimates of the size, number and types of fish in the lakes. The basic count was done during the summer by placing “gill nets" at strategic places in the lakes Fish are snagged by these nets but are not harmed, and via a sampling basis on the number of fish netted in a certain period, statisticians are able to determine how many fish there actually are m the lake. Blobs or globs? People who have them under study have used both names The objects are gelatinous masses found in shallow water of the local lakes, and in channel areas. When Dr Carol Lembi. Purdue university botanist and plant pathologist, was here August 23 for an algae field study at the request of the Lakes Study Fund committee, she fished one of the blobs or globs out of the lake and took it back to Purdue for identification Trouble is. no one at Purdue has been able to identify it yet. and it’s had close scrutiny of both the plant and animal people there. “It appears to be something produced by an animal.” Dr. Lembi told Lake Study Fund committee member Dave Stoops in a preliminary report last week. The objects range in size from that of a small orange to that of a large watermelon A new booklet published by the Indiana Department of Commerce guided by LU Gov. Robert Orr has nice things to say about the Syracuse town park. The booklet contains a number of suggested “circle tours” of points of interest for Hoosiers and others interested in touring this interesting state. The Syracuse park is pointed out as a pleasant place for resting, picnicking and swimming. on the northeast Indiana tour. More about the park: Despite heavy use during the summer, the Syracuse town park was deserted that’s right, deserted* at 3 p m Sunday — despite the fact that it was a pleasant, sunny butchilly day. Cranberry Hill? Folks from (toshen who have been motoring to Syracuse for a few years say that was the name of the bill on Indiana 13 just north of the Elkhart county line, about half way between Syracuse and VS •- The story is told of one couple who. when they motored to Wawasee a half century ago. would stop and she would get out and walk, because they were convinced their car would not make it up the hill with both aboard For those of you who can’t remember. Indiana 13 once ran along Main street In Syracuse between Huntington street and

the lake, around by the park and north to the county line, then “jogging” about Itt-yards west

before proceeding north again. When the road was reconstructed in 1941 and the portion between Huntington street and the county line built new. “Cranberry Hill*’ was cut down, and only the sodded sides of a woodsy cut remain as evidence Ever see a mid-1929*s read map. before the highways were numbered? The route that is now Indiana 13 south of here was then known as the “Hills and Lakes Road** south through North Webster and Pierceton. Local salvage entrepreneur Joe Hughes has completed a histone task, and almost unnoticed at that. Back about 194®. when the United Telephone Company began to upgrade phone service

in the area, it decided the shortest route between Syracuse and the South Shore of Wawasee was underwater. So an underwater cable — just hke those laid under the Atlantic and Pacific oceans — was installed between the Kale Island point (opposite Oakwood Park) and Sunset Point. And. believe it or not. it functioned for almost a quartercentury. until phone expansion made necessary additional cable capacity to the area. And the 19CB*s cables were installed overhead, parallel to Indiana 13. Thus Joe wound up this summer with the opportunity to pull up and salvage the old underwater cable —a chore he completed a few days back.

HOW ABOUT THAT — A front page picture of the Telegraph Herald on September 19. Dubuque. lowa and East Dubuque. Hl., carried a three column photo of Sunday morning summer worship services of our ministerial association on Lake Wawasee. noting money from the collection is donated to community projects. Just this past week, a 51,000 check was given the Lakeland Day Care Center for working capital needed there. How about that Mary Lib (Mrs. E. L.) Fosbrink brought this item to our attention noting it was her home town (DBQ) and her brother who spotted the item.

Fairfield Educators withdraw their suit

The Fairfield Educator’s Association announced today that it has withdrawn its unfair practice suit filed last January against the Fairfield community schools. The unfair practice petition charged that the board had failed to discuss a major change in the school’s curriculum as required by public law 217, commonly called the teacher’s collective bargaining law. President of the FEA. Allen Metzler, announced theorganization withdrew the charge in early August. Metzler felt it was important to make this announcement because, ’’the press reported the Fairfield

board had won the suit; this led people to believe that a hearing had been held with the Indiana Education Employment Relations Board (IEERB), and that a decision had been rendered in favor of the board. That simply was, and is, not true!” said Metzler, “Nobody won!” Metzler pointed out however, that, “this does not mean the problem is solved. It simply means that the charge has been dropped.” The FEA official indicated that the organization is hopeful that other means will be successful in arriving at a solution acceptable to all concerned.
