which 20 would be competing in the third Indiana Future Problem Solving Bowl on Saturday, April 20. Out of that 20, five teams are coming from the Lakeland

district. Representing the area will be two teams from Syracuse, two from North Webster, and one from Milford. Sponsoring the teams is the Indiana Department of Education.

The bowl will be held on the Indiana University-Purdue University campus in Indianapolis. The topic to be covered for this bowl will be “The Green House Effect.” The competition requires that the teams work on solving the problem for two hours, each in an isolated room. The only materials they are allowed to have in the room include a dictionary, thesauri, pencils, pens, and paper. After the teams have derived their own solutions, each must prepare a skit to persuade others that their idea is the best and most workable method. The skits will be judged and prizes awarded. The teams will compete in different divisions, depending upon their grade levels. Those competing in the Junior Division are comprised of fourth, fifth, and sixth graders, while the Intermediate Division is comprised of seventh, eighth, and ninth graders. Only one team from each division will be picked to represent Indiana in the national competition in June. Wrong time printed The correct time for the Syracuse Kindergarten Round-up is scheduled at 7 p.m. on Monday, April 29, in the school’s cafeteria. The Round-up had previously been scheduled for April 15, but due to conflicts, it was reschedlued for the Monday, April 29 and, again, the time will be 7 p.m. Be sure to take the child’s legal birth certificate so that enrollment forms may be completed.
