'Call Smokey for Help’ is state police pilot program

Indiana State Police Superintendent John T. Shettle announced that a CB pilot program, designed to assist motorists in emergency situations, will soon be in effect here in Indiana. The Indiana State Police has purchased 20 CB base stations and 128 mobile CB units. The base stations will be installed in the Indiana State Police posts throughout the state and the mobile units in the troopers patrol cars. Initially the program will provide assistance to motorists along 1-65 from Chicago to Louisville; however, it will be expanded to cover the entire state as funds to purchase additional radios are received. “CB owners have been extremely helpful to our personnel by reporting accidents, advising us of poor road conditions, reporting drunk drivers, reporting fires, assisting in manhunts for felons and many other situations. We are deeply grateful for their assistance and we are now entering into our “Call Smokey for Help” program to encourage this assistance.” Superintendent Shettle further stated that legitimate calls for help made by CB owners should be given on channel nine, the

Pair to serve additional time

Brian Wayne Huff, 20, of Syracuse, and Steven J. Sommer, 20, of Boubbn, were sentenced to serve an additional 180 days on their previous sentences for their jailbreaking attempt in August. This decision came from Kosciusko Circuit Court Judge Gene B. Lee Monday. The pair had escaped from the county jail on August 14 and were later apprehended in Osceola on August 15 and returned to the jail. Both had been sentenced earlier to serve 1-10 year terms for their part in earlier crimes. Huff had tried to pass a forged check at Thornburgs Drug, Syracuse on July 20. Sommer had stolen a pick-up truck in Etna Milford man injured A Milford man was injured in a car-motorcycle crash near Milford last Saturday. Teddy E. Stumbo, general delivery, Milford, was taken to Kosciusko Community Hospital and treated for fractures to the right leg and lacerations of the mouth. Stumbo, riding a Yamaha motorcycle, was unable to stop when a car driven by Margaret L. Warring, r 3 box 447 Syracuse, pulled onto old road 15 south. The vehicles collided, after the auto skidded about 54 feet. Stumbo was thrown from his motorcycle about 30 feet across the road, from the impact. The Stumbo motorcycle was totaled. Damage to the right front fender, door, hub cap and windshield of the Warring auto was listed at SI,OOO. Milford police officer Richard Fehnel investivated the accident.

channel set aside for emergency reports, but the mobile units in our patrol cars will also monitor channel 19. Superintendent Shettle emphasized the term “legitimate calls” since giving a false report to a trooper is needlessly risking his life. “We are attempting to provide a much needed service with this CB program and any individual charged with making a false report will be dealt with most severely,” he said. Superintendent Shettle pointed out that many of the troopers throughout the state presently have CB’s in their patrol cars and these units have been purchased by the officers own personal funds simply because the trooper wants to provide the best possible service, even at his own expense. The 128 mobile CB’s will supplement the privately owned units and will probably be issued to those troopers who have been unable to afford buying them. Superintendent Shettle stated that as soon as the base and mobile units have been installed appropriate roadside signs will be erected to advise motorists of the service that is available. In addition, local CB React stations will be contacted and* their assistance will be solicited.
