An optimistic view of marriage

(Continued from page 1) either place because both are different.” For the Youngs, living away from home was an adjustment for Mrs. Young who was raised in Southern Indiana. The pair lived in four different communities in three years, all away from her friends and family. Rev. Tinkel confessed his marriage expectations, “At that point, I didn’t know what to expect. My idea was, gee, marriage is one of those nice easy going things.’ ” But he like other couples surveyed, devoted a lot of time to his work while his family watched. Rev. Tinkel and his family realized the importance of spending time together, so after acquiring a camper, the family enjoyed many week end campouts together. A Lasting Marriage Besides spending time together as husband and wife, and family, a Christian foundation is an essential part of any marriage, according to the Tinkels. “A child who comes from a home where there is a God-given love in existence between the mother and father, a basic closeness will develop and the child will express the same kind of life in his own home,” commented Rev. Tinkel. Out of this loving home comes a willingness to give and take, added his wife. “Too many people go their separate ways,” said Mr. Kammerdiener. The importance of doing things together was stressed by the Syracuse couple. Mr. and Mrs. Young also stressed the importance of giving and taking. “Selfishness is an obstacle,” he commented, “there must be a willingness to overlook faults and shortcomings. ” The need for a selfishless marriage and one based on Christian belief was stressed by the Haifleys. “Things could be resolved if people weren’t selfish. And if people truly trust in the Lord Jesus, they won't be selfish,” he said. Serving God and the effect that a life of service has on a marriage was pointed out by the Johnsons. “The more that we love God, the more that we love each other. We grew closer together when we really did what God wanted us to do. ’ ’ Belonging to the same church is important according to the Sorensens, but being good to each. other is the big part. Courtesy was also stressed by the Lindemoods. She always says “thank-you,” and he said. “She's always been grateful and appreciative, I try to out do her in courtesy.” Giving and taking was important to all the couples and in addition, patience and “a lot of forgiveness" is also important to the Shocks. Mrs. Henwood remembers only one time when she lied to her husband, but he forgave her, and she learned honesty is another important quality in a good marriage. Children and a carefree attitude can also help a marriage last, “I don’t. care about yesterday or tomorrow, I just live for today,” said Mrs. Henwood. While marriage is an important part of most societies, there are some instances where the only solution to a dying marriage is divorce. The interview with the nine couples will continue next week when personal views on divorce and helping divorced couples adjust will be explored. | FELTS CERAMIC TILE I 630 Pittsburg Street Syracuse ? • Carol Peanut • I 834-7582 457-2665 j v Syracuse Agents JANET FREEL In the event that you have forgotten to renew your passport, and are scheduled to leave the country in 24 hours, the State Department is prepared to help.

Tuttle under investigation in scandie

Tuttle could not be reached for comment. He was expected back in Syracuse Wednesday afternoon. A picture of Tuttle appeared in the Sunday edition of the Star in a story spread over four pages describing the rise and fall January 6 of Hannah, president of American Fletcher Company, the holding company for American Fletcher National Bank. Hannah and AFC chairman of the board Frank McKinney, Jr., in 1977, took over the financial management of the Deer Creek properties. The two called in Tuttle, 43, a mutual friend, to manage the Deer Creek Country Club, its golf course and pro shop. Bo is really a nice fellow Three residents filed complaints against 80, a four-year-old playful German Shepherd, charging the dog had attacked their smaller pets. The dog’s lawyer argued that Bo was just a friendly pooch. The jury deliberated 22 minutes at a Princeton, W. Va., court before finding Bo not guilty of being “vicious,” after a handshake from Bo convinced the jury that he was really a nice fellow. The attorney said this is a nice dog who turned to Bo and said, “Shake hands with me.” Bo dutifully lifted his paw, ■ i'V.x k McCORMICH Hours: 8 A.M.-8 P.M. Mon.-Fri. BA.M.-4 P.M.

The three met at South Shore, while the McKinneys and Hannahs were vacationing in the area. The Star reported that in 1980 Tuttle invested $200,000 from a note co-signed by Hannah in another development in the resort area. According to the Star, Hannah, then as executive vice president of AFNB, was investing money in a subsidary of the bank. Mickey McKinney, the 18-year-old son of the elder McKinney, worked at the Florida golf course for Tuttle. The Star reported young McKinney was a constant source of complaints among residents and co-workers. He was arrested for a series of traffic violations while his father and Hannah were in Switzerland. Later, Tuttle left Florida and the Star said he told the bank he wanted to devote his time to South Shore. Other sources attributed in the Star as saying Hannah fired Tuttle. An agreement was believed to have been worked out with Tuttle in which the bank did not pay him anything to settle his $36,000-a---year contract. It was after Tuttle had left that he became the subject of an investigation for skimming money from the Deer Creek Pro Shop proceeds, the Star reported. Tuttle also came under investigation for 60 golf carts missing from the Florida golf course. The carts were alleged to be at South Shore. There were also reportedly questions concerning a deal allowing Tuttle to sublease golf carts from one

AFNB subsidy to another. In a Wednesday morning telephone interview with State Bank of Syracuse vice-president Mike Mangus, he said the bank had “no direct involvement” with the missing golf carts. He confirmed, however, that the bank has financed the purchase of golf carts for Tuttle over a period of years. A special bank committee is investigating the allegations and the Star reported the FBI is also investigating the matter. Only one at 110 A team of Russian scientists who’ve been studying the Soviet census concluded that Russians who eat yogurt and claim they are 130 years old are actually lying about their ages. Neil G. Bennett, a University of Michigan sociologist, says that the Russian reports of 20,435 people over the age of 100 and 465 over the age of 120 are greatly exaggerated. The Russians keep very bad records. Actually, he continues, they have only about 3,000 citizens over 100 and only one over the age of 110. The yogurt-eating folk from the mountains are fooling everyone to get attention.

Grisamer opened the dam on Monday to 18 inches to get the water level down to six inches below the spill way in preparation for the spring rains. “You have to play it by ear and personal experience,” remarked Grisamer, who added you have to know what the winter is doing and what kind of water you are having. “No winter’s the same. I’m just as concerned about the people below the dam as I am above the dam. To the best of my knowledge no one has been hurt.” Grisamer commented he likes to get the water level down to six inches below the spill way allowing him some leway for the spring rains so that no one will be flooded. He has been dam controller for the past seven years.
