Jana Gerber's cake sold forsl ,200 at Ohio Fair

Jana Gerber, 15-year-old daughter of Mary and Jack Gerber of Briceton, Ohio, and granddaughter of Mrs. Mike Zimmerman, Sr., of Milford, entered a five-tiered wedding cake in the Ohio State Fair and received $1,200 for her efforts. The cake made from 14 Betty Crocker Super-Moist Cake mixes and 45 eggs weighed a total of more than 100 pounds and was covered with “special frosting" that used 20 pounds of powdered sugar and five pounds of Crisco. Yellow, green and violet petunias, daisies, roses, pansies and violets decorated the fivetiered, three feet, four inch high cake and four individual heartshaped cakes surrounding the center. Jana started baking at an early age and at age 12, she baked and decorated her own birthday cake. “I make my cakes from mixes,'* she said, “but the frosting I make from scratch. The state fair wedding cake took 40 hours to bake and decorate. An estimated cost would be about $100.” Karen Wagenrod, Jana’s teacher, encouraged her to enter in the state competition and Jana is also grateful to her neighbor, Clare Lanz, for creating the silk flower arrangement on top of the cake Each layer was packed and cushioned with styro-foam for the state fair in Columbus, Ohio where guards at the entrance had to be persuaded to let the Gerbers drive in the fairgrounds. Ohio Governor Rhodes and his wife, Helen, attended the Junior Blue Ribbon Food Sale which followed the judging. Since Jana's cake won over eight other cakes it was the last item available for purchase. “When bidding started on my cake, it just kept going higher and higher and I couldn’t believe it was happening," Jana said. The cake finally sold for $1,200 which was believed to be the highest bid ever given at similar state fair auctions anywhere in the states. Governor and Mis. Rhodes

Mount SainUHelen's eruption topic for Rotary Club luncheon

The natural holocaust of Mount Saint Helen’s volcanic eruption of this century was pictorially presented to the SyracuseWawasee Rotary Club Tuesday at its luncheon meeting. George Gilbert, assistant superintendent of the Lakeland Community School Corporation, gave the program with the aid of graphic slides. The eruption day of May 18, 1980, was preceded by a series of area earthquakes, which began two months earlier. These forecasting events enabled the volcano to be studied and observed in more detail than all other such occasions, but also contributed to numerous unnecessary deaths. Although many communities of people were evacuated because of the forwamiqgs; some 75 persons, scientists arid on-lookers alike, perished. < This, the greatest natural disaster in the history of the United States, devastated 156 square miles of the state of Washington, destroyed more than two billion dollars worth of trees and property, erased from the face of the earth no less than 28 lakes and bad the force estimated to be 500 times more powerful than the infamous Hiroshima bomb. The lava from the core of Mount Saint Helen, more than 100 miles deep, last erupted from this geologically “young” mountain in 1842, and has done so in each century in the current millennium. The last major eruption of consequence, which probably was a fraction of this one in size, was in the mid-1400s. Today scientists again warn of

more internal action in the mountain. Although its former majestic height of 9,677 feet has been reduced to a north rim height of 6,800 feet, it appears possible that future eruptions may further erode the mountain. Philosophically presented, every event has a purpose, sometimes explained by science as “every end brings a new beginning, sometimes explained by the art of living.” Visiting rotarians and guests included Dick Rugglesal, Indianapolis; Web Granger of Hartford City, Gene Fletcher of Bloomington; Marion Shenkel of Huntington; and Harry Johnson of Michigan City. EMT class set at Webster Linda Eastman will be having a class for EMTs, beginning the middle of September, in North Webster. This will be a 101-bour course, meeting once a week.
