"CRUZIN around CUSE"

(Continued from page 4) Diners eschew neckties of any sort and usually don’t wear coats except where air conditioning is turned up. When the dinner hour is over the gaming rooms begin to fill up, usually around 9 p.m.. and continue open as long as there are gamblers. Three Mew York men pooled >2O each and played Big Bertha, the dollar slot machine at the Alhambra Casino while we were on the island, and won $25,000, the largest payoff ever in the Caribbean. So said The News, a 16-page English daily tabloid. The unanswered question is: Did they have sense enough to quit and take the next flight home? With our sources of information so sparse, we learned the results of the American elections a day late, through a Thursday copy of The New York Times, purchased at the princely sum of $2.30 at the hotel magazine room. Our copy of Fodor’s travel book, which served as our bible in Aruba, lists the 206-room Americana .Aruba Hotel & Casino as expensive, but under terms of the Ambassadair we didn't find it so. The Americana caters to American clientele of all ages with its casino, huge pool and tennis courts.

Keep the faith: Lowe

(EDITOR'S NOTE: These Veterans Day 1986 remarks, made by Jerry Lowe, past commander of the Herbert Kuhn American Legion Post 253 of North Webster and past commander of the Second Indiana District of the American Legion, highlighted the Tuesday morning commemorative service in front of the Syracuse Public Library, by members of the Syracuse-Wawasee American Legion Post 223 and the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1342.) It is with a great deal of pride and honor that I am able to speak to you today. I am only one voice among thousands of Hoosiers who will offer tribute to Indiana Veterans of all eras today, . . . who have served our flag with pride and honor. Since Indiana became a state in 1819, whenever our freedom as a nation was threatened. gallant Hoosiers answered the call. To risk all they had for what we all hold dear They kept faith with us . . today we have the chance to keep the faith with them. We fought to make wars end we fought against reckless on the part of a few people, and we showed that people will not be subjected to tyranny without a fight. . .we Americans understand about tyranny and we understand the plight of those around the world who find themselves living without freedom, without privileges, and sometimes without hope. So. the veterans of tomorrow need the backing of the Hoosier veterans of the past and the nonveteran citizens of this state... They will give, as we gave, until their job is complete . . they will then continue to give when they return to Indiana, taking up where we leave off Veterans . . today's and tomorrow’s are the mortar that holds the foundation of this country together . . . they strengthen us. they strengthen themselves, and they add to the world. .. We need only to pick up a newspaper . .. listen to a radio or watch the evening news on television . . to be constantly reminded that today we must be prepared to protect ourselves. Throughout our nation’s history, veterans have paid a heavy price . because they knew freedom doesn't come cheap. But, if nothing else . recent world events have proven anew that the freedom we. as Hoosiers and as Americans enjoy is worth the sacrifice. Veterans hold a very special place in Indiana society. Often that special place was not recognized quickly enough From the years following the first great war of this century, veterans have rallied to help

We were fortunate to meet the hotel’s general .Arends, and to compliment them on their smoothly running hotel — and also to thank them for the hotel’s hospitality party on Thursday night, which proved a real success and a genuine mixer. The Americana can boast the area’s best sandy beach, plus a clean Olympic-size swimming pool, plenty of shady palm trees and cabanas for those who want only a little sun. For tennis buffs, there are lighted tennis courts. When we complimented Sam Cook and Adwina Arends on their hotel and its smooth operation we didn’t have to exaggerate one little bit. We met a New Jersey couple who sold out and moved to Aruba as permanent residents. When we asked why, we heard a litany of sun and sand and of the good life. “We didn't want any part of ‘God’s Holding Room',’’ the retiree said. We knew at once that he meant Florida. Like we said earlier: We re talking easy living now. ; > ■' We have a hunch Joe and Joan Gray would like Arab*. They like walking sandy beaches in hot weather, looking for all sorts of shells. — AEB

Veterans worked to establish a monument that has been called the most comprehensive piece of legislation ever passed by the United States Congress . the GI Bill of Rights. It was done to care for those who had joined us as comrades in arms. In the later wars-in Korea . . . and then Vietnam ... we joined together again to protect those rights secured by service to this country. And that’s where I believe the spirit that was kindled in 1919 has brought us on this Veterans Day. We who have served. maintaining vigil for the rights and honors due those who are serving now. Standing ready to relieve the distress of our comrades and their families. Supporting measures and promoting the welfare and security of our nation . and reinforcing the moral and social values which they are defending by their service. That’s where we are today. In 1954. President Dwight Eisenhower signed an act of Congress “To honor veterans on the Ilth day of November each year a day dedicated to peace.” Ladies and Gentlemen This is the true essence of Veterans Day a day to recall veterans sacrifices during war and to pay tribute to their contributions during peace. But let us not forget there can be terrible sacrifices paid during peace, as well. . and we must remember that those who serve today do so just as heroically and as honorably as any who sacrificed during time of war:
