The Resurrection In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre. And, behold there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it. His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow: And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men. And the angel answered and said unto the women. Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. And go quickly, and tell his disciples that the is risen from the dead; and. behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: 10, I have told you. And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word. And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them saying. All hail. And they came and held him by the feet and worshiped him. Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they, go into Galilee, and there shall they see me. Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the city, and shewed unto the chief priests all the things that were done. And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers. Saying, Say ye. His disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept. And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade him, and secure you. So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day. Then the eleven disciples went away . into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them. And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all - I nations, baptizing them in the , name of the Father, and of the Son. and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsover I have commanded you: and. 10. I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen Matthew 28:1-20 KJV

What others say —
Ridiculous, but serious • It would seem ridiculous, were it not potentially so serious, this invasion of the British Falkland Islands,by Argentina Five thousand troops and an armada of an aircraft carrier, heavy cruiser, three submarines, smaller craft and troop ships, against 84 military defenders and 1.800 shepherds Overkill w ould hardly be the right word. But it has put the United States in a- “no win” situation. We are allies of Great Britain in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and we are allies of Argentina in the Organization of American States. Our friendship with the English dates back through two historic world wars; and through the colonists, our roots go back to the British Isles. We have been hoping for help from Argentina in stopping the spread of revolution in Central America. The incident certainly must have sprung from public dissatisfaction with the military junta that rules Argentina. The economy there is said to be chaotic, and only last week there were demonstrations against the government. The jeers have now turned to cheers, as the military leaders have fired the passions of nationalism At first it appears a cheap and easy way to turn attention from domestic ills, tweaking the one-time ruler of the sea over forbidding islands that seemhardly worth defending. There may be oil potential around the Falklands, but it has not been developed. The cold, windswept, treeless, hilly moorlands are more hospitable to penguins, seals, and sheep than to humans. Wool and hides are the chief sources of revenue. If the Argentines think they can redress 149 years of grievances, which is how long the British have claimed the islands, by armed occupation, we surmise they have misjudged. England has its own armada on the way. President Reagan made a stab at trying to prevent the action by contacting both governments, but his call to Argentine President Leopoldo F. Galtieri was too late. The invasion had occurred. We hope that any more use of force can be averted. This adventure by Argentina is something our troubled world could have done without. — South Bend Tribune

"CRUZIN
AROUND 'CUSE"
|RF • w THE STRONG, gale-force westerly winds of last Wednesday afternoon, with reports that it reached 55 miles per hour, did considerable shoreline damage along the east side of Lake Wawasee in the Nattie Crow area. Those living in the quarter-mile span watched with utter wonderment as the winds heaved the breaking ice onto the shore line and against a number of the homes that grace that area. First to report it to this column was Carolyn Meyers, well known resident of that area and former realtor, who said in some 30 years of residency in that area, she had never seen anything like it. Charles Beck and his wife Elizabeth watched the encroaching ice flow and felt helpless as it neared their home. Mrs. Beck said she had been around that area most of her life, dating back to when her grandfather lived in that area, and she had never seen the ice break up and go over the banks like it did last Wednesday. The James Norman home is next to the Beck residence, where a front window was pushed out by the ice. with a small amount of ice going into the home The Normans were in Alabama, so Charles Beck covered the window with a piece of plywood. (Note: See top left photo.) Those involved notified local police and the county sheriff's office, but it was not known what could be done about it. There’s no way any estimate could be given on damage done, but it’s certain to be heavy to seawalls and summer recreational equipment stored along the shoreline. .... « —o— PATTI RITCHIE, the comely waitress at the Syracuse Case, is considering having an extension telephone installed at the long table where members of the so-called “Breakfast Club" gather for coffee each morning. She seems to be saying. “Let’s give this place a little class.” and is copying something the elite beaneries in the Big Apple have been doing for a long time. -O'BRAVO TO members of the Syracuse Street Department for moving in quickly to repair chuck holes in city streets, judged to be the worst in many a year. Work was done during last week's clear w eather. —O—SOME OF us have trouble hitting the 10 pins at Wawasee Bowl with both eyes wide open. But not Linda Jones. She’s so confident of her bowling talents that she’s volunteered to bowl blindfolded at 2p.m. Saturday. April 24 It's all in the interest of raising funds for the new Lakeland Day Care Center. Anyone caring to can donate so much per pin. “for building blocks.” for the hew day care center. —O'INDIANA STATE Police always have an eye toward lowering the highway fatality toll (a real tough nut to crack): but this year so far Indiana has over 100 less fatalities than last year. This, according to Trooper Larry Clodfeiter. a Syracuse area resident and patrolman. Clodfeiter claims the January-February-March heavy snows, ice, and all-around inclement weather found motorists driving on the highways less It's reasonable, when one stops to think about it. LOCAL PAINTER Ken Harkless has a capital idea He thinks the uptown area can be upgraded by having an alley wall on the Masonic Building painted with some sort of scene, historic or otherwise. One suggestion is that the old Syracuse High School building that once stood where the parking lot is presently located be reproduced in oil. Bravo. Ken!

ELDON UMMEL IS PROUD OF HIS PPG PACE CAR
Aris., on Sunday, March 28, full of unabated enthusiasm for their hobby-avocation. They acted in an official capacity in the 1982 PPG Championship Auto Racing Teams (CART); in 150-mile races held March 28 at the Phoenix International Raceway. Eldon, a teacher at SHS and WHS since 1957, is better known as a recent WHS athletic director, while Mrs. Ummel is a teacher in the West Noble school system. Eldon joined CART in 1981 and rides “shotgun” in the pace car during race events, acts as communications link between race control and the pace car driver. He has worked as an official at the Indy 500 car races for a decade, while Mrs. Ummel kept the official observer's log. a job she has held for five years, which figured in the dispute over last year's winner at Indy. Fans of that race will recall that Bobby Unser passed a number of cars when the yellow flag was up, thus improving his position. The win was contested by Mario Andretti, and as a result the win was taken from Unser. but. based on Mrs. Ummel’s log. was finally given back to him. The Ummels were pleased to see the Phoenix race replayed over NBC Channel 16 Sportsworld from 2:30 to 4 p.m.Sunday. Their hobby takes them out of the classroom about six days during the school year, but they’ve found their superiors understanding in the matter. This year the Ummels are scheduled to “work” at 13 similar races, taking them from the March 28 Phoenix race full circle to return to Phoenix on November 6. -o808 AND Betty Deahl of Sand Point (Lake Wawasee) and Hub and June Anglemeyer of North Shore Drive were among those who returned home over the chilly week end from a winter’s vacation in Florida. The Deahls spent most of their vacation on Sanibel Island just off the West Coast near Fort Myers, but took the occasion to visit friends in Florida, and the Anglemeyers spent most of their two-month stay at Stuart, Fla. —o— WE LIKED this bit handed to us: News is information that someone doesn’t want disclosed. Bravo. -oM ARI AN (MRS. Bill) Cable looked out the window of her North Shore Drive solar home one day last week and saw what she construed to be “an island” in the middle of Syracuse Lake. With little else to go on. we figured it was the remains of the winter's ice on the lake. ■ 1 For sure, ice on all area lakes was gone with a whisk at mid-week when high westerly winds moved the ice on some shorelines. (Note. See lead item on this column and see large Page 1 photo.) —oMONDAY’S SIX-INCH late winter's snow, coming as something of a surprise, reminded some of the April 16. 1961 snow when so many people were stranded in county towns. That snow formed a belt that hit directly across Kosciusko County. —o— THIS WEEK’S snow proved no deterrent for Larry’ Heckaman of Kale Island. He showed up Tuesday morning on his Kawaski snowmobile en route to his job at Heckaman Industries. Nappanee. ski mask and all,. which completely obscured his identity. He sat down at a local coffee shop, looking for a moment or two exactly like the man from Mars, before he removed the mask to identify himself. —o— AND A Milford man pushed his cap back, scratched his head and said. “I usually plant potatoes on Good Friday, but 1 don't know what I’ll do with all this snow on pie ground.” Bravo! —°— ■ i MEMBERS OF the Rehon A mature Classical Orchestra of near Nancy. France, got a surprise of their lives when they arrived in the Syracuse community just after midnight Tuesday amid the late season snow storm. (Continued on page 5)
