Girls have seven-sports that end in state competition — golf, vollev ball, basketball, tennis, track and gymnastics During the afternoon and evening session we found ourselves sitting behind a gentleman of obvious importance, inasmuch as school men and others interested in Hoosier sports continued to beat a path to his seat for brief conversations. Impressed with this continuing string of people, we asked his name and commented that we were impressed It turned out he was Herman Keller, assistant commissioner of IHSAA for 12 years. He was coach for Evansville Central for a number of years and took them to final victory in state basketball competition in 1944 and 1945.

An official in the first afternoon game between East Chicago Washington and Terre Haute South was Gene Butts of Warsaw. Marion Acton. Milford Junior High principal and former state tourney official, well known throughout Indiana athletic circles, was at the state tourney renewing acquaintances with old friends.

Shasta Industries of Goshen have purchased the office complex of Monarch Industries located on road 33 southeast of Goshen Monarch has temporary offices on the lower level, however Cberrie Caldwell, owner of the Syracuse Case until the new owners take over April 1. insists our information concerning a cup of coffee is wrong. She said no one can make a cup of coffee for three cents, as reported here a week ago. ‘Tve looked at it every way possible, and can’t possibly make a cup of coffee for less than six cents." she said Mrs. Caldwell added that cream and sugar costs three cents each, making a cup worth 12 cento, not counting labor or utilities. Commenting on the tight coffee situation. Mrs Caldwell said she has a coffee salesman quitting his job. Because can’t make any money on his coffee route;" In preparation for spring sports and warmer weather, the nets have been put up on the Wawwsee High School tennis courts. The courts are not only used for classes and tennis team practice, but the public may use them also. This season marks the first spring use of the courts, as the construction was not completed until last fall. Watch for some changes in the south part of town soon, one in the building between the laundromat and filling station on the east side of Huntington street, and several businesses to locate in the corner building just north of Marise s. An octogenarian said. "One nice thing about the future is that it comes just one day at a time." Another added. “Yes. and I think less time and effort should be spent on how to stay young, and more on how to grow old gracefully" A sign in a Goshen furniture store reads: Warning! This building is protected by high voltage and a man with a double barrel shotgun three nights a week Guess which nights. Judge Gene B. Lee of the

Kosciusko County circuit court has on his desk five names of residents of Turkey Creek township recommended for seats on the Syracuse Plan Commission to fill three vacancies. Vacancies occur where the terms have expired of Mike Um ba ugh. Joe Hughes and Maurice Crow. Crow has expressed no interest in being appointed to another term, but Um ba ugh and Hughes would accept another four-year term. •' The appointments the judge would make are of particular importance now that the jurisdiction of Turkey Creek township is in dispute between the Syracuse Plan Commission and the Kosciusko County Area Plan Commission. The Syracuse Town Board and Syracuse Plan Commission recently filed a joint action asking for a declaratory judgment in the Kosciusko court. A new emergency medical service (EMS) observer has been voted on to work for the Syracuse Ambulance Service. The new man is Robert L. Bauman. 22. 443 N. Huntington Street.

Jerry Clabaugh of Curtis TV will go to work Monday as a salesman at Monarch Industries. LaMar Stoops is a funny man. He writes us from Fort Myers. Fla., to change his M-J address back to Syracuse, stating. "Gentlepersons: Subject to the condition that the 1977 icebergs have been liquefied on Syracuse Lake as of April 6. mail my subscription of The Mail-Journal as of said date to my home ad-ch-ess ” Little known historical facts: Christopher Columbus stopped over at Las Palmas, capitol of the Canary Islands, located on Grand Canary, the main island, en route to the New World, ostensibly to shake down his three ships, the Pinta, Nina and Santo Maria. The trips were in 1492. 1493. 1498 and 1502. Actually, the shake down didn’t amount to much, but old Chris had a girl friend at Las Palmas The tragic plane disaster Sunday at Tenerife brings the Canary Islands into focus and this piece of information surfaces. * We'll bet that's something you never read in the history books. The employees of Todd Realty welcomed Joe back from vacation Monday morning with the threat of a sit-in if he didn’t start supplying coffee again When coffee prices soared. Joe overtly refused to purchase any more, despite the objections of his employees. Well, the sit-in threat worked, and the staff has begun to deplete the new 24 pound supply of coffee purchased later that same morning.
