POLITICS MAKES strange bedfellows, as the old saying goes. Governor Otis R. Bowen is making a broad pitch on television for his state Republican ticket, noting that these men will help keep his tax reform bill intact in Indiana. He should come into Kosciusko county and make this pitch. While this county adopted his local option tax, a REPUBLICAN newspaper fought the tax reform so adamantly that a new REPUBLICAN county council threw it out. Democrats in the county have viewed the local option tax. as proposed by the governor, kindly. — o— RESIDENTS OF the Syracuse-Milford-New Paris area will miss the slightly irregular stride of G. J. (“Tubby”) Gill, representative of Gill-Parsons Wholesale Co.. 113 West Washington St., Goshen.

“Tubby” had his regular route for over 30 years of calling on local restaurants and small groceries, supplying them with candy, tobacco, restaurant supplies, paper, things like that. He and Harold Parsons came to Goshen in the mid-’3o’s with the new Penn Electric (later Penn Controls), and a short time later formed their wholesale company. Parsons sold to Gill in 1957. All these years local residents have come to know the friendly Gill as simply “Tubby.” One leg being slightly shorter than the other, he walked with a slight limp. Working with him werefc Mr. and Mrs. Calvin Whirledge, she in the office and Cal on the road. Now the Whirledges have bought Tubby out. Paul Warstler is the new man in the area, replacing the amiable Tubby. What will Tubby do after all these years on the road: “Oh. some golf ... a little bit of everything.” —O'BAS CHARLIE McGee turned “professor” on us? Owner of McGee’s Pottery on road 13 just north of North Webster and a resident of North Shore Drive, Charlie is now sporting a handsome goatee, giving him the distinguished look. — o— HAT’S OFF to the local Kiwanis club for having candidates for the Lakeland School Board in for get-acquainted appearances. The 30-odd member club meets each Saturday morning for breakfast at Three Flags where owner Jack Oswald whips up one of his specialties each week. Last Saturday Kiwanians heard John Kroh, a board in-

cumbent, and aspirant Stu Walker. And they have plans of having the other three candidates appear also. We hear the club members “don’t leave them off easy.” just whatever that means, but come up with some probing questions concerning the operation of our community’s biggest business. —o— COMICAL 808 Knudsen, nowrecluse he. showed up at coffee Monday morning wearing an outsized, Texas-type 10-gallon hat. “Where did you get that thing,” came a chorus of querries. Bob and Mary Jane returned Sunday night from a 10-day motor trip that took them to the Denver. Colo., area for a convention. Bob had a lot of tales about “all that corn in Kansas” and their visit to the Air Force Academy at Colorado Springs, Pikes Peak and Estes Park. —o— YOU HAVE to hand it to slim, trim and somewhat chic Leilani Nemeth, for her efforts at getting hubby John, and outdoor type, burly NlPSCcyfineman. to trim a little off his - bulging waistline. “Sixteen pounds, no less.” chortels Leilani, as if she did it all herself. —o— GOT THE word: Carol Elder, of the new “Think Pink” Elder Realty, received word last week that she passed her state insurance exam and plans to tie this line of work in with her real estate endeavors. —O'PEOPLE ARE asking who the mod. frizzly-topped young blond is in the office of Thornburg’s drugs. We can tell you she’s Tonya Swihart of Goshen whose husband Mike is employed at Eby’s Ford, also in Goshen. —oMICK WILLIAMS says he was a long time learning what the letters "A” and “B” meant on the stern of the boat belonging to Lil and Forrest Cook. “I thought it stood for Anchor Bar,” he said, referring to their uptow n place of business. "But now they tell me it means ‘Atsama Boat I ’ he chartels. -O'NEW ADDRESS of Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Nicodemus, who moved to California St.. Apt. 54. Woodland, Calif., 95695. Phone: (916)-662-0586. Cliff is a former Syracuse town board member. —o—“BALMY FALL weather,” You say. “Colorful foilage, leaves falling, cool nights for sound sleep,” you add. Yep, all that and more. Our time of year. But there are those who have a foreboding about cold winter weather ahead. For instance, there’s already a run on snow blowers. “They’re real hard to get already, and it isn’t even the middle of October,” one local merchant said this week. Additionally, several local merchants claim they are having a run on snow shovels, and that their present supply is gone, they won’t be able to replace what they have. Nus said? —o— A FEW of the local residents who are leaving, or have already left for their winter homes in Florida are the Emory Stetlers, Frank E. Johansens, Louie Hares and Al Lamleys. —p— AUDREY RUTH, of the NEXT-

TO-NEW SHOPPE in Wawasee Village, tells us that she and her daughter, Debra, Wawasee High School senior, have just returned from Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. After seeing three doctors and making a trip to Indianapolis, Mrs. Ruth and Debra went to Mayo’s to see if Debra needed foot surgery. She does not! —o— A NICE, newsy letter has arrived at the Mail-Journal office from Paul and Martha Stoelting of San Antonio, Texas, formerly of Syracuse. They say this is the time of year they especially miss Indiana, because San Antonio has no autumn such as Hoosiers know. “However, it doesn’t have snowsuch as Hoosiers know it, either!” The Stoeltings complimented Arch and Della on their series about their trip to the Far East. “It was very interesting and unique in its depth on these unknown (tous) places.” Mrs. Jack (Joan) Stoelting of Syracuse recently returned from San Antonio after a two week visit with her son, Paul; daughter-in-law, Martha, and granddaughter,, Sarah. She also visited with her sister, Mrs. Jose (Nancy) Olivares and family. Paul Stoelting has completely recovered from the surgery he had in September, which was the reason for her visit, and has returned to his second year of lawstudies at St. Mary’s University. The Stoeltings write that Paul had a complete thyroidectomytwo weeks after the new semester started, but only missed four days of classes! He has nowreturned to his part-time lawclerking job also. They say, “We had such super doctors and staff at the teaching hospital connected with the University of Texas at San Antonio Medical School where he went. It really renewed our faith in the much maligned medical professions! The Stoeltings added, “We had a similar experience at Goshen Hospital when our daughter was born in 1976.” “thanks for helping us keep in touch with home.” w By CAROLYN GROVE New books available at the library: “The Minnesota Connection” by Al Palmquist and John Stone. “Search to Belong’’ by Christmas Carol Kauffman. “Not Regina” by Christmas Carol Kauffman. “Reader’s Digest Condensed Books” Volume 4,1978. “The Far Arena” by Richard Sapir. “Walk Gently This Good Earth” by Margaret Craven. “The Glass Flame” by Phyllis A.
