Squirrell causes shortage

By BEN SMITH Staff Writer The antics of a squirrel on his spring rounds were responsible for 2,500 people in North Webster losing their power for a time Sunday afternoon. Northern Indiana Public Service Company District Manager Tom Retseck said the animal crawled between a conductor and a piece of metal at the North Lions have film on teenage alcohol use A film on teenage alcohol use and abuse titled, “ I Wish We Could Talk About It,” will be shown and will be available for showing in the Milford community during the week of April 23-28. The Milford Families in Action and Lions will join on Tuesday. April 24, at 7:30 p.m. in the community building to show the film. All are invited. This 16mm sound, color film serves as an excellent resource for promoting a rational dialogue between parents and youths on the subject of teenage drinking. The film affords adults and teenagers an opportunity to hear what they both think, say and really mean when they talk about teen alcohol use. The film has been obtained by the Milford Lions Club for use in the community arid the schools. Any club or group that would like to schedule a showing of this film during the week of April 23-28, should please contact Dr. Bruce Lamb at 658-4126 or 658-9166 “I Wish I Could Talk About It” is intended for either adult or teenage audiences or both. Webster men arrested on alcohol charges James Brent Rider, 27, r 1 North Webster and Jack Allen Schopf, 27, North Webster, were recently arrested on alcohol related charges and held in the Kosciusko County Jail. Rider was charged with driving a motor vehicle while intoxicated and released on his own recognizance. Schopf was charg ed with public intoxication anc also released on his owr recognizance.

school’s students are now women. She should be able to return to Milford to practice at the Milford Large Animal Clinic where her dad. Dr. T. A. (“Al”) Miller, is a partner with Dr. Bruce Lamb and Dr. Gervis Schafer. Tammy is remembered as the

Webster substation, causing a shortage on one of the main power lines to the town. Squirrels and other animals routinely play about NIPSCO equipment, he added; noting however, unless the animals manage to touch another metal part at the same time they touch a conductor, power outages such as the one which occured in North Webster Sunday usually don’t result. Power was knocked out in the town from 2:17 p.m. until 3:54 p.m. It’s highly doubtful the squirrel survived the experience, a NIPSCO employee said later.

“snow storm baby,” inasmuch as she was bom on April 16,1961, the date of one of the area's most unseasonable snow storms. MILFORD WILL apparently have to wait a little longer for railroad crossings at Fourth Street and Catherine Street, according to Ronald W. Park, executive representative of Consolidated Rail Corporation. In a letter which was sent to Carl H. Baxmeyer, staff assistant to Congresssman John P. Hiler, Park said he appreciates the concern of the Milford community, but can’t promise installation any sooner than this upcoming fall. Milford officials have been waiting for the installation of crossing lights since October of 1983. At that date the town sent Conrail a check for 111,290 for the project. “At this point I’m not sure if the installation date can be advanced and I would not want to give you a date that sounds better for now but has no real chance of achieve-

ment,” said Park. RUMOR HAS been circulating that Dr. Floyd Rheinheimer will retire this year. This is unfounded. The doctor will take a sabbatical this summer and another doctor will come to Milford, live in the Rheinheimer home and assist Dr. Dick while the Rheinheimers are gone. Watch for more on this later. THIS COLUMN received the following letter this week from Isabel! E. Buehler of Holton, Kan.: “I am looking for relatives of my great grandmother Mathews who married William Henry Davis in Indiana or Ohio. I found an obituary of Edwin Mathews born in Logan County, Ohio, in 1819, died in New Paris, Ind., in 1898 and buried in Milford. “He married Mary Ann Mills in 1844. They had 13 children, eight of them mentioned in the obituary as follows: Dr. James

Mathews, New Paris; Mrs. Rachel Ann Rosenberger, Nappanee; Mrs. Ellen Cart, New Paris; Dr. Calvin Mathews, Leesburg; Alfred D. Mathews, Urbana; Mrs. Nancy Jane Yost, New Paris; Mrs. Matilda Smith, Middlebury; and Mrs. Belle Lichtenwalter, Milford. A son, Philip A. Mathews, the oldest one, died in 1897 in Rice County, Kan., which is around Hutchinson, Kan., and Great Bend. He left seven children. “This is so long ago I haven’t much hopes of finding anyone. There was Mathews Family reunions as late as the 19505. I found a card and wrote the person who sent it but of course it was returned unknown.”
