He told how each candidate, with sponsors, solicited contributions with the one having the largest amount being the mayor. It was an interesting race with candidates including one JMi-year-old woman and Arch Baumgartner, publisher of The Mail-Journal. The receipts were deposited to the candidates' accounts in the local banks with no one, not even the chairmen, knowing final amounts of each candidate, other than the one with the largest amount. The election created a lot of interest and fun. The campaign was topped off w ith a sold out banquet. Shown with Replogle is Herschel Wells, president of the Wawasee Club. 4aa.aaAAA A A A A A A A Open Thanksgiving Day } "A Real Old Fashioned Thanksgiving Dinner” ► < Make Your Reservations Now ► 4 ,- FT" ► < Sunday — Ladies Day / F n. <£ b < \ Bring Your / r>i* nin 9 K ► \ Favorite Lady / jy/2 ers ■ l !

Place to live Just because a person lives in a wealthy neighborhood, it doesn’t mean that one is immune from health problems caused by toxic waste. According to International Wildlife magazine, a study by the Council on Economic Priorities found that middle-income neighborhoods, not the poorest neighborhoods, have the highest levels of toxic waste and related cancer deaths. One of the worst places to live is Short Hills, N.J., with an average household income of $91,000. The best place is probably Beverly Hills, Calif., which was virtually no toxic waste.
