United Way fund drive explained

Mike Martin, fund drive chairman for the United Way of Kosciusko County, was introduced by Col. Joe Gray, as the speaker during the noon meeting of the Syracuse-Wawasee Rotary Club. Tuesday, Oct. 7. Martin spoke of the role of the United Way in Kosciusko (bounty and of its goal of raising $510,000 in the county this year. He said that 100 percent of the funds raised will be given to the 21 agencies supported by United Way. This is due to the fact the McNamara Fund allows United Way to pay all administrative costs and capital grants to member agencies without using any of the annual funds raised. The annual funds are used for operational North Webster Bike-a-Thon October the official date of the North Webster Cystic Fibrosis Bike-A-Thon according to Jim Davey, chairman of the event. The event is being held at North Webster and will begin and end at the Church of God on SR 13. According to Davey, the event includes riders who will solicit pledges for each mile they ride their bikes. Riders will compete for prizes based on the totals they collect in pledges Davey stated that the money raised from the event will help fund research that is searching for a treatment to prolong the lives of children with cystic fibrosis. Cystic fibrosis is the number one genetic killer of young people, but tremendous advances in research in the past year have brought the treatment for this illness within sight. This year’s event honors Alex Deford, whose story was told on an ABC television movie last April. Her short, courageous life has inspired riders across the nation to take part in bike-a-thons to benefit the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. "This is a chance for everyone in North Webster to take part in a nationwide effort that can help wipe out a disease." Davey said. To register for the bike-a-thon. contact Jim Davey at 834-4281.

Denies cover-up in jail house hanky-panky

I Bx GLEN LONG Staff Writer Ron Robinson, Kosciusko County Sheriff’s captain, said yesterday that there was no cover-up of information on the subject of a 15-year-old inmate allegedly crawling through ceiling ducts to gain access to cells where female inmates were being held and having sexual relations with one of them. “It was our responsibility to inform the county commissioners and the county prosecutor, which we did immediately,” said Robinson. “We were obligated to protect the identity of the 15-year-old, a minor, and even now cannot prove what went on in the women’s section that night.” Robinson said the youth apparently squeezed through a small opening in the air plenum above the ceiling to gain access to the other cell. Since this flaw in the building design has been found, wire mesh has been weld-

ed in place to positively prevent anyone from going through. Another female inmate, Teresa Fenimore, Warsaw, has stated that the youth was in the women’s cell area on the night of July 28, leaving via the air shaft around 5 am. Apparently the boy, a Syracuse resident, has continued to deny any involvement in the incident. The 27-year-old woman who is alledged to have been involved with the youth for several hours that night is still an inmate at the county jail, serving time for check deception and jumping bail on at least two occasions. Her cellmate, Fenimore, having served her time, has been released and the 15-year-old has been sent to Indiana Boys School at Plainfield. DAZE ■ Stitt Going 0n... While I Supplies Last!
