Candidates for recorder answer questions
In the upcoming May primary, there's a heavy Republican race for the office of Kosciusko County Recorder. The Democratic party has fielded no candidates. Three of the four candidates currently work at the courthouse — Patti Marsh, June Johnson and Carol Sundheimer. The fourth, Alice Anglin, has held office in Etna Green. Recently, each of the four candidates for recorder was asked five questions and given a chance to respond. The questions and answers appear below. Question one — “Why are you running?” Anglin — “I’ve been approached by some friends (and asked to run).” Anglin added that she has four years experience in both the office of Clerk-Treasurer of Etna Green and as a town board member of Etna Green. She said that in those capacities, “I enjoyed the involvement and working with the people.” Anglin concluded that she also enjoyed the contacts she made on the state and local level, through her work. She lives in Etna Green. Johnson — "Because I’m qualified, I’m honest and I’m dependable. (And) because I think the office offers a personal challenge.” Johnson is a Warsaw resident. Marsh — “I like to work with the public and I think I can do a good job." Marsh lives in Etna Green. Sundheimer — “I enjoy working with the public. I’ve worked here (in the recorder's office) for 17 years. I enjoy being around people and helping them.” Sundheimer lives in Warsaw. Question two — "What experience do you bring to the job?” Anglin — Anglin currently works as bookkeeper, secretary and receptionist at G.I. Tape and Label in Warsaw. She said, "I have years of experience in escrow, which has given me knowledge of the importance of recording legal documents properly. Also. I understand legal documents, as I’ve handled thousands of them.” In addition to her experience in working for the Town of Etna Green, she has worked as a bank loan officer, senior order/billing and shipping secretary and as an assistant purchasing agent. All of these positions, Anglin said, involved working with the public. She is in her fifth year as a Trustee for the Etna Green United Methodist Church and is serving as secretary/treasurer. Johnson — "I've worked for the city; I’ve worked for the county; and I’ve worked for the state in government offices.” She added that she has at least 15 years of experience in working for government. Assignments have included assisting in implementing the HUD (Housing and Urban Development) program in this county and working on the SAFE program, which helps the elderly and lower income residents with heating bills during the cold months of the year. She has also worked with grants and concluded, "I’ve worked with the public all of my life.” Johnson currently works as first deputy in the county health department. Marsh — "I had 13 years experience at an abstract company.” She added, “Abstractors do most of their work in the recorder's office so I'm familiar with the records." She has
Fry rejects airport proposal

Letter to the editor
Writer, enjoys being in the country, but. . .
Dear Editor: I am not a resident of Syracuse, but my parents are. I enjoy visiting regularly, not only to be with my family but to be out in the country — breathe the clean air, take in the lake and prairie scenery and relax in the open spaces. As a resident of downtown Chicago, these visits to the country are special to me. A favorite activity in Syracuse is to take a hike in your beautiful countryside. On a recent visit, I decided to hike nearly eight miles on country roads near SR 13. I only hesitated when I thought of stepping around road kills — but as this is a fact of country life, I felt it was time to get used to it. Along the way, I did see one dead rabbit. Although road kills are disturbing, I did not count at all on the far more saddening sight along every inch of country road: Litter. Unless I am mistaken, this is not a natural fact of country life. Liquor bottles, beer and soda cans, styrofoam fast-food containers, paper fast-food waste, motor oil bottles, broken glass and other trash of every size, shape, color and material made the countryside ugly waste glaring all around. I couldn’t walk 10 paces without the offensive, ugly waste glaring all around. My walk was more disappointing than I ever expected. I counted at least 13 french fry containers along the roadside. In Chicago, I have walked over 20 miles of lakefront and not seen as much garbage as over a 3'a mile stretch of Syracuse country
POLITICAL NEWS
(D-Mishawaka) spelled out his belief that state funds should not be directed to South Bend's “Air-
lane. All this*-makes even less sense when you think of the huge fuss the press made over Earth Day. I guess the point is, we shouldn’t have to have an Earth Day. That kind of common sense should be built in from day one. People must have to go out of their way to learn to hate their earth. The impulse to let loose trash from your car window can’t possibly be healthy and normal. If the people ‘who contribute to this environmental poison believe that some municipal service will come around to pick it up, for one thing they are mistaken, and for another, why should they have to? Throwing an apple core out the window is one thing — what isn’t eaten by the wildlife contributes to fertilizing the soil. But think of the damage done not only to the scenery, but to the harmless deer that might chomp on a styrofoam container or other such unnatural cruelty. The wildlife in Syracuse is one of the greatest natural resources you have, and it is being destroyed by inconsiderate people. I believe we truly are our brothers' keeper, and the next time I visit Syracuse, I’m going on a “trash hunt.” I’ll take some kids with me, some large garbage bags and gloves, and try to make a game of making the neighborhood beautiful again. My hope is that other people who live there will do it, too — that it won’t be a losing battle, and we can be proud and happy to live there. I hope we won’t cringe next time when we wonder what we’ll see on a walk in the country. Sharon M. Dietrich

However. "Until the votes are counted, you don’t ever really know.” Johnson — "Yes. I’ve felt enthusiasm.” She added, “I’m a local person. I was born here. ” Johnson went on to say that five generations have lived in this county and that county residents are good to her. She concluded. "If I think I can help someone, I help them.” Marsh — “Yes. I guess because I work with people every day.” She indicated that residents throughout the county have expressed support, as have those who have come into the surveyor’s office. Sundheimer — “Yes. I’ve had people say they will (vote for her) and they know my qualifications and dedication.” Question four — “What do you feel are the most important qualities a person can bring to the job of county recorder?" Anglin — "The office holder should be obligated to the taxpayer to be courteous, considerate and conscientious.” Johnson — “Honesty. Dependability.” She added that getting down to the “nitty-gritty,” "attention to detail” would be needed as well. Finally but "not of least importance." a rapport with the public. Marsh — “Good customer service, because I want people to leave the office feeling like somebody has gone out of the way to help them.” She added that making sure that all of the legal documents are properly recorded is also important. Sundheimer — "I feel that you should have a little bit of knowledge of government because on the whole, you are working for the county." She included "keeping accurate records,” as another vital quality, "which over the years, can be very important.” Question five — "Why do you feel you would make a better recorder than your opponents?” Anglin — "Basically, the experience I’ve had in business life. ” And, “I love working with the public.” Johnson — “I think because I’m always looking for a challenge. I’m always looking for a goal.” Also, "I like making things better. I think there’s a lot of things that maybe we can improve.” Johnson added that the recorder's office is one of the few county offices that is not computerized. Marsh — “I feel I have the best ability to work with the public. I feel that I have the qualifications for the job.” Sundheimer — "Experience.”
port 2010“ proposal. “The Indiana Department of Transportation should make funding for the Indiana Toll Road/County Road 17 exchange and 'Capital Avenue Corridor' proposals top priorities in the very near future," Fry said. Fry’s comments were in reaction to a request he received from South Bend Mayor Joe Kernan, who asked Fry to support the "Airport 2010" project. “I have made it perfectly clear that I will not support Mayor Kernan's proposal until I can be assured that funding the Airport 2010' will not take away potential funding for these two projects — both of which represent key economic development potential for the Mishawaka/Elkhart area," Fry added. “In this endeavor, I am committed to represent the interests of these communities and I will continue to do so as the state considers future highway improvements and development needs. “In writing to top officials of the Indiana Department of Transportation, I wanted to make one thing resoundingly clear: as the legislator representing the citizens of Indiana House District Five, my top priority is the •Capital Avenue Corridor’ project. “The positive economic impact of the Capital Avenue project is of supreme importance to my constituents and 1 will continue working for funding this road improvement project —a key factor in the future economic development of Mishawaka and the sur-

"I also made clear that my constituents want an agreement that the state will conduct the appropriate studies an eventually secure construction funds for an Indiana Toll Road exchange at CR 17. “Construction of this exchange is a top priority for my district, as well, and I have spelled out in no uncertain terms my belief that before the state transportation agency approves an excessive expenditure of sll million on the 'Airport 2010' project, appropriate studies should be undertaken to justify such action." Fry said he believes the South Bend project is "progressive," but that it does not merit taking highway dollars from the Toll Road/CR 17 exchange or "Capital Avenue Corridor" projects.
