This county's United Way is unique to all others as 100 percent of all contributions goes to fund operational costs of the 22 member agencies. Administration and campaign expenses are funded by a special fund through interest income. Since this fund was created in 1975 through a bequest, over $120,000 alone has been given in special grants to the northern communities. This does not include the yearly allocation given to the agencies that service the northern communities. Such special grants have been given to the Lakeland Day Care when the new facility

APC approves rezoning In the face of several remonstrators against the rezoning of about 35 acres north of Warsaw from agricultural to residential use the Kosciusko County Area Plan Commission, on Wednesday, Sept 2, voted to recommend approval for David Whitesell, Warsaw attorney. The property is located at the northeast corner of the intersection of county roads 175E and 75N. Whitesell had been denied an exception several months ago by the Board of Zoning Appeals when many neighbors came to speak vehemently against the possibility of mobile homes in the area. Ron Baumgartner, who chaired the meeting, explained to remonstrators that stipulations which would control the type structured built in a residential district can be applied by the APC when a residential subdivision plan is submitted for approval. Goshen College, represented by engineer Larry Long, received final plat approval on Musquabuck Meadows, on the west side of Dewart Lake. The college has made a concerted effort to improve the area while working around existing long term leases in place when the area was willed to the college. Verna Weaver, restaurant operator in Syracuse, was asked to drop her petition to rezdle a property across Boston Street from her restaurant. She plans to remodel a building at that location for use as a banquet room. The board suggested she submit, instead, a request for a zoning exception to the BZA, feeling that the Town of Syracuse will prefer to control use of the property in this way rather than rezoning the lot. L. Earl Yeiter requested approval to rezone a 98-acre tract, his family farm, from agricultural to . residential use. The APC denied approval because the tract abuts the northern boundary of the new industrial corridor northwest of ■ Warsaw and is close to several other operations including a large grain dryer operation, a confined hog feeding operation and a commercial gravel plant. In fashion Jeans and oversized shirts and sweaters will continue to be favorites on the campus this year. There will be classic styling in denim jeans and jackets. Today’s collection of styles range from basic blue to stonewashed to frosted in most departments. Designer T-shirts with ribbed neck and short-sleeve cuffs are relatively new . . color and design seem to have no limit. Natural camel bone necklaces, wooden and natural ivory earrings are some of the latest fashion accessories. Study Another fashion tip — study the clothes you felt most happy and comfortable in last fall. Study the color, style, fabric, lines and the way they fit — use your findings as a valuable guide when buying or making new outfits.
