Always Had Hones A horse of one kind or another has always been housed in the small bam of Peg’s father, Harry Dale Doty. Peg said she has showed Arabians, quarter horses and thoroughbreds throughout the years she has been involved in showing. 1 Corker’s ow-ner said she can’t show her horse as much as she would like to. however, because of the money. The cost to enter a horse show is about $25 which doesn’t include accommodations, feed and the ”et. But, the cost can be well worth it if the horse wins. In some of the larger show’s, a horse can wi|n between SI,OOO to

$2,000 said Peg. To prepare for a show. Peg grooms Corker, bathes him, braids his mane and tail and makes sure his bridle gear and tack are clean and shiney. These preparations usually takes about one full day said the owner. Then comes the actual show. Fora hunter, the horse is judged by its coordination, consistency and how smooth it is to handle. Reg said the main thing the judges look at in a hunter is which horse looks best and would be the easiest to handle. For the hunter over fences division, of which Corker is entered, the horse is again judged on its smoothness and coordination. The judges look at which horse would ride best on a hunting field. Usually Corker competes with 19 other horses in his class in one show. This is the average said Peg. In a smaller show, the competition might be only between 15 horses, and in a larger show, the number of horses competing rises to 34M0. Five places are awarded to the horses, first place on through fifth. Sometimes a sixth place is awarded said Peg. Peg started showing horses because of the fun and interesting people she meets. “I just enjoyed it, it was fun. I like the competition." Peg plans to continue showing Corker whenever she can afford it, but, for the future, she would like to work in a stable and show other horses. And, eventually, she would like to own he- own stable and show her own horses Peg isn’t the only horse love- in the family either. Her younger sister, Janny, 15. is also showing horses, only through 4-H. Peg said Janny entered the Elkhart County Fair this year.

Word from Trustee Shewmon

Dear Editor: Once again, in last week’s issue, when reporting the dilemma of local planning, your news article stated “Township Trustee Joseph Shewmon stated that he would not help in any way". That was supposedly said in answer to the question of Township participation in costs of any possible/ law suits. The same misstatement has also been made in at least two other area newspapers. At a public meeting several months ago, the President of the Syracuse Town Board asked if the Township Budget had provided for possible legal expense. My direct answer was “no". The township office is open to anyone that would like to check the published budget and verify that response. At no time before or since have the township officials been asked to provide funds for any legal services relative to Plan Commission problems, and at no time has the statement been made by the Trustee that such help would be refused if requested. Since February 11, the four township officials have met Brown enters guilty plea William James Brown, Milford, entered a guilty plea on August 4 for the theft which occurred at the Arch Baumgartner home in Milford on July 1. Brown was released on a $2,000 bond. He entered the Baumgartner home and stole an approximate SIOO in cash and Mrs. Baumgartner's billford. Brown was arrested in July and charged with the theft at the Baumgartner home, the theft of the station wagon owned by Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Doll of Milford and. with the theft at the Farm Bureau Coop Prosecuting attorney Steven Hearn stated he is scheduled to be sentenced at 1:30 p.m. on August 18.

several times. Not once have they discussed an official position relative to zoning or planning, or expressed a preference of local or area jurisdiction. The trustee certainly would not presume to take a definite and arbitrary official position without the courtesy of complete and thorough discussion and exchange of views with the Advisory Board. As one vote, as a private citizen, it is my considered opinion that with a different and more friendly climate than has been manifest, a continuation of local control would have been preferable to the joining of the Area Commission. With name calling, threats, actual and implied, back biting and general childishness, affairs had progressed to the point that any reasonable hope of harmony and positive results were impossible, under existing make up. A few key resignations of those high on self esteem and low on accomplishment could have resolved the problem happily. In closing may I offer some timely Oriental philosophy — Confusicous say — “Too bad, sometime it necessary to kill dog to rid of fleas". Joe Shewmon Accident at Augsburger's John B. Augsburger, r 1 Milford, and Sharon M. Fackler, 16526 US 6 Syracuse, were involved in a two-vehicle mishap in the Augsburger’s parking lot, Syracuse, at 9:15 p.m. Friday, Aug. 5. Both vehicles, which were parked in the lot, started leaving at the same time. The drivers did not see each other. Augsburger was going forward out of his space while the Fackler car was becking. Damage was set at $250 to the Augsburger car. No damage was set to the vehicle driven by Fackler.
