Evan Bayh sounds economy note here Friday

Secretary of State Evan Bayh, the lone Democratic state office-holder in Indiana, reminded Kosciusko County Democrats at, the county fairgrounds’ Shrine Building Friday night that Democrats can manage government efficiently. His office, he said, is a clear indication of that fact. Secretary Bayh has refused his state-owned car, putting that money into Governor Orr’s A-Plus Education Program. He is also operating his office with five percent less budget than his predecessor. Bayh called for “responsible state spending,” and said what Indiana needs better educational programs and more economic development funding. He said education in Indiana has been neglected, noting that Democrats have urged educational reforms for years. Popular In Indiana The occasion of Bayh’s appearance in Kosciusko County was the annual JeffersonJackson Day gathering; at which there were 112 in attendance. County chairman Leßoy Miller said he was pleased with the turnout in view of the fact that no election is in the offing. Bayh’s appearance came on the even of a new public opinion poll that shows he has a commanding lead over Democratic opponents for his party’s guberWebster Town Board to meet North Webster Town Board will meet this evening (Wednesday) at 7 p m-, in the town hall for the regular April board meeting.

Bayh would not commit himself on seeking the guber- • natorial nomination of his party, but noted, “Th/important thing is to make thdright decision and not just a (jaick decision. ’ ’ Bayh has been a surprising comer in Indiana politics, having won 62 of the 92 counties in Indiana in his race for secretary of state over Marshall County Judge Robert O. Bowen, for a plurality of 124,000 votes.

Jim Jontz of Kokomo, a congressional freshman, was on the agenda as a speaker, also. AJso present was Knox attorney Tom Ward, who was defeated by a mere 47 votes by John Hiler for the Third District congressional seat. Ward avowed to “be back” on the campaign trail in two years to unseat the incumbent, if he should be a candidate. Secretary Bayh gained enormous state-wide stature by his fair handling of the recount commission in the Third District race. No doubt this augured well for his Saturday standing in Indiana polls.

to be completed within 10 work days. —O'BECKY DOLL didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when Milford librarian Mary Jurss told her she would have to share the dais with lU’s colorful basketball coach Bobby Knight when she receives the 1987 Citizens’ Award from the Indiana Library/Trustee Association. Becky and Bobby will be corecipients. The honors will be distributed on the two on Friday, May 1, at the Hilton Hotel at the Indianapolis International Airport. A little known fact about Bobby Knight is that he has plugged for' financial help for the Indiana University Library at Bloomington for a long time and has been very successful. Becky headed the Milford “Friends of the Library” that raised nearly $20,000 to refurbish the Milford Public Library, and in view of the magnificent job, Mary submitted Becky’s name as a nominee for the prestigious award. "As a result of all this activity,” says Mary, "registration and circulation (at the library) are up.” —o— FRIENDS OF Raymond and Tena Pinkerton will want to know that the couple is celebrating 59 years of marriage today. Although Tena has not been well, she was able to attend the wedding of her grandson, Brian Tucker, and Kim Trammel on Saturday evening. —o— THE NAME of John C. Hoerr, 91, who died in Peoria, 111., last week is on the brass plaque on the stone in the front yard of the Milford library since he was a single, young farmer living in Milford at the time he was drafted. His son, Robert, said it was around 1918 and John was always proud of the fact his name was on that plaque. His draft notice came while he had crops in the field and when he asked the government what he was to do with the crops he was told they didn’t care. He was, according to his son, shipped out from Warsaw and was in the Army’s Medical Corp., during World War I. Many town residents will remember the Hoerrs living west of town until they moved to Illinois a decade or so ago. , -o- 9 MEMBERS OF the Fellowship Class of the Christian Church toured the printing plant of The Papers Incorporated last Saturday evening and then went to the home of Noble and Donna Fisher for their business meeting and refreshments.
