People in the News

By LESLIE WHITMAN Even though Charles Parker, 41 year-old new town marshal in North Webster, is new to the job, he is not new to the area. He has lived in North Webster and Warsaw for four years, serving as an Army recruiter for Kosciusko County. Parker, a native of Peoria, ill., served in the military 20 years and three months. He also served in the reserve three years and eight months. He retired in 1977, voluntarily, at the rank of sergeant. About his experiences in the military, the town marshal says, “I liked it real well, it was a great experience." He was stationed in San Antonio, Texas; New Jersey; Japan; Fort Knox, Ky.; Germany;-**-Viet Nam; North Carolina; Munster; and finally in Kosciusko County. Plans Worked Out Parker served 10 years in the Military police while in service. "I always planned on getting into a law enforcement agency when I got out. So far my plans and everything have worked out," he said. Even though he has had some previous police experience, Parker said he is still planning on attending the police academy. He was hired by the North Webster Town Board in February, and replaces Tony Strombeck who served as part-time town marshal for 14 years. He said, "I was hired mainly to give the townspeople 24-hour protection. That's the important thing." The town board has plans to provide more police protection. Parker says a full-time and a parttime deputy will be hired. As far as he knows, the two relief officers

serving under Strombeck, Leonard Burns and James Kiser, will not be continuing on with the department. The full-time deputy will receive a yearly salary of SB,OOO. The parttime deputy will be paid on an hourly rate, $2.65 to start. Parker, himself, receives a yearly salary of $9,500. the deputies, the town marshal says he will also be making an announcement requesting any voluntary police help. Dispatchers, to be on duty 24 hours each day, will be hired. Parker said Syracuse Town Marshal Ron Robinson has been lending his assistance in getting this type of program started. For the time being, Syracuse has •t- agreed to dispatch for North Webster. Parker said it will probably take about four to five months for the dispatching system to be hookedup. Once it is hooked-up, Parker hopes the North Webster Fire and EMS departments will also want to use it. "I think it would be to everyone's benefit," he commented. New Duties Right now, his new duties as town marshal include patrolling the town. Parker said he is on duty 24 hours, having a phone hook-up in his house. He usually is at the station in the mornings and on patrol the rest of the time. He plans on being at the North Webster schools in the mornings and afternoons and will assist firemen in all their calls. He is also busy setting up a file system and contacting the various merchants in town to set up a phone emergency system. Parker said his duties will be clearer to him as he gets to know the town and its residents. He said he has received a very warm response
