''GRUZIN around CUSE"

(Continued from page 4) BEFORE THE current sheriff’s race in Kosciusko County has been concluded, voters are going to hear more than just a teenager climbing through the air duct at the county jail in Warsaw and becoming involved in hanky-panky with the girls in women’s cell. This is a promise from Jerry Johnson, the Democratic candidate for sheriff, who bills himself as simply “J. J.” A small clique has come forward, composed of Democrats and some disgruntled Republicans, to get J.J. better acquainted in Turkey Creek Township, and they are planning an open house get-acquainted meeting (sort of a “meet the candidate night’’) at the Lakeland Youth Center at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 22. IF YOU’RE one of those vain motorists who likes to drive around town with a personalized license plate on the back of your car, and want to renew it for another year — or for that matter, never had one but now think it’s a good idea and do want one -r you have until Friday, Oct. 31, to drop by the Syracuse License Branch and give branch manager Roxanne Hadley your S4O. “They’ve been slow coming in,” Roxanne said on Monday. Last year the branch sold 67 vanity plates, and so far this year only about 20 have signed up. However, the accommodating manager said she expects them to be flooding in during the next two weeks. Os this S4O fee, it breaks down as follows: State fee, $7; local fee, $3; political contribution, S3O (sls to the state Republican Central Committee and sls to the state Democratic Central Committee). —O'MONDAY, OCTOBER 13, was Columbus Day, and not to be outdone one little bit, Merl Smith

Third District Candidate —

Seeks support from embattled farmers

I By MARK HUFFMAN Staff Writer U.S. Congress third district candidate Tom Ward made a campaign trail stop in Milford Thursday, Oct. 9, after visiting various farmers throughout northern Indiana. Heightening efforts to unseat Congressman John Hiler Nov. 4, the Democratic hopeful noted that there were “serious problems in agriculture” that he looked forward to addressing. “I will ask to be placed on the agriculture committee if elected,” he said, noting that Indiana hasn’t had a representative on the vital committee since Floyd Fithian was in office 10 years ago. He added, “It’s important to a voice on the committee to give people in the county (Kosciusko and surrounding counties) a say in the legislative system.” An attorney from Knox, Ward said that the economy of the rural towns within the third district are Milford driver injured when car hits phone pole Up to $2,000 damage was caused to a 1978 Mercury Bobcat, driven by Victor Howey, 24, Milford, when he collided with a telephone pole after attempting to avoid a collision with another Milford resident at 11 a.m. Friday, Oct. 3. Garnet Widup, 74, was eastbound on Fourth Street when she attempted to make a lefthand turn into the Lakeland Loving Care Center nursing home and turned in front of Howey, who was westbound. Howey swerved to avoid Widup and collided with a pole on the west side of the street, suffering a bump cm the left forearm in the collision. Howey declined treatment, with no other injuries and no arrests being reported, according to investigating officer David Hobbs, town marshal.

AN ILL-ADVISED petition asking the Wawasee Community School board of trustees and its attorney to resign over the flap involving Superintendent Ken Webster has been withdrawn for lack of sufficient support, it was learned early this week. A DISPLAY of Syracuse sesquicentennial souvenirs is now on display at Beemer Enterprises, Inc., on Pickwick Road, for anyone to see. | They will go on display at several other locations later, the points to be announced at a later date. REALTOR/DEVELOPER Chet Elder is slowly developing a beauty spot in front of the building he recently purchased from Hugh Dunithan at 506 South Huntington Street. Dunithan, who has had his NNN Corp, (so named for Ernest, Dennis and Leonard Nichols) at that location since 1981, has moved his metal fabrication business to a new location on Palm Drive in the Village. What Elder plans to do in the 5,400 square foot concrete block building is not certain. The structure was formerly the maintenance shop for Syracuse Rubber Co., at one time located next door to what is now the Syracuse Town Hall site.

tied to the farmer, something that prompts him to believe the small farmer is being neglected. “The present (economic) program isn’t solving our problems, it’s not targeted to the small and medium Midwestern grain farmer who needs the help. Hoping to benefit from his rural background (having lived in Starke County), Ward said that he would support a moratorium on foreclosures if elected, while a restructuring of the system would be essential. “We have to do something to get the price of grain up,” he remarked. Ward will give farmers another opportunity to voice their opinions when he attends a meeting and hpg roast Thursday, Oct. 23, at 5 p.m. in the Lapaz Community Building, located off US 6 and US 31 in Marshall County. Ward, who will speak at 7:30 p.m., invites farmers and their families from Elkhart, Kosciusko, LaPorte, Marshall, Starke, and St. Joseph to attend.

Letter to the editor Roses are to be shared Dear Editor: J I After reading J. B. Hoy’s very fine letter about a ‘Rose’ for Friendship Week and Day in October 1 issue of The Mail-Journal, I would like to share the following: Robert and I like to raise and share our roses as a hobby, not only the fourth week of June but for five months, June through October, or as long as our roses bloom. I feel that friendship in our lives is really important and we should cultivate this habit daily. It’s wonderful that former Governor Bowen, Senators Lugar and Quayle, and Congressman Hiler are supporting the second reading of this bill in both of our congressional houses. Last week I gave away our 275th rose to Donna Daniels, secretary at Wawasee. We have given roses to 90 of our friends this summer and fall. I still do substitute teaching in five area schools and the principals, teachers and secretaries all enjoy receiving roses and we become better friends. To be a friend a person should recognize that the art of friendship is a lifetime study, that no person knows all the answers. Each day we should live the friendly way. Giving a rose to a friend makes two people happier and that is what life’s all about. Sincerely, June Laudeman Open house at Wawasee High on Thursday This Thursday, Oct. 16, Wawasee High School will hold its annual open house. Parents are encouraged to attend the open house from 7 to 9 p.m. to walk around the school and talk with teachers, administrators and guidance counselors. Refreshments will be served throughout the evening in the commons and the National Honor Society members will be serving as guides.
