legion to hold open house for Veterans Day The Ancil Geiger Post 226 American Legion hall, Milford, will be open to all veterans and their wives on Saturday afternoon, Nov. 12, in hdhor of Veterans Day. The hall will open at Ip.m. with supper being served at 6 p.m. Emergency weather procedure outlined The time of year is rapidly approaching, when bad weather can create difficult raod conditions for school buses. Due to this, the Lakeland School Corporation has released the following emergency weather procedures. Many buses begin to pick-up children at 7 a.m. and nearly all drivers are wanning their buses by 6:45 a.m. Therefore, it is necessary to make a decision to call off school by 6:30 a.m., in order to have time to notify drivers, before they leave home to start their routes. Due to the time zone, the weather conditions vary considerably between 5:30 a m. and 7:30 a m. This sometimes makes for a difficult decision. If there is no question as to the extreme hazardous condition of the roads, school will be called off and announced over area radio stations. In case of questionable roads or rapidly changing weather conditions, the corporation will use a two-hour delay of buses and school, so that conditions can be re-evaluated in the daylight hours, before a final decision can be made. This delay will also be announced over the radio. If only the two hour delay is announced, the buses and schools will be operating after the delay. Any cancellation notice during the two hour delay will be announced over the radio.

ASCA official reviews farm program changes

In addition to extending farm programs for four more years, the newly-enacted Food and Agriculture Act of 1977 also changes some of the programs, particularly price support and production adjustment programs administered by the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service (ASCS). Victor A. Senechai, ASCS assistant deputy administrator, reviewed some of the significant changes. Allotments will be eliminated for the wheat, feed grains and upland cotton programs. "This is a very significant change in that we are getting away from the old outdated historical allotments which have been in effect for so many years.” Senechai said. Higher target prices for these commodities are also in effect. “Target prices will be based on planted acreages rather than allotments which we had in preceding years.”
