HEADS LAKE SHORE PLAYERS TROUPE

Norman Pcrier MANY VISITORS ARRIVE FOR SUMMER VACATION Swimming, Boating And Fishing Are Popular As Season Opens Within the past few days there has been a noticeable increase in the number of visitors to Lake Wawasee, Syracuse Lake and Syracuse. Many people who are regular summer visitors have returned again, and renewed old acquaintances, but there are also many visitors who have not been here before. Hotels have reported record reservations during the past few days, and business men report a marked increase in the number of customers served and the amount of business done. While the season was late in opening due to cold weather, temperatures have reached higher points this week than experienced yet this summer. Many persons have taken to the water for swimming, fishing and boating. COUNTY RECORDS SHOW LOW HOMICIDE RATE Only Two Killings in Kosciusko County During The Past Five Years r v Bloomington, Ind., July 2 —There j were two homocides in Kosciusko' county during the past five years, i according to a geographical study of ! homocides in Indiana just completed ! by Dr. S. S. yisher of the Indiana I university faculty. Dr. Visher ex- j plains that this was an average of • 1.4 homocides per year per 100,000 ! population for 1931-35. “There are about 200 homocideseach year in Indiana, which means | 6 per 100,000 population,” Dr. Visher says. “Most of these are murders or ‘killings,* as fatal accidents are not classed as homocides in Indiana. The study shows that there were no homocides in the five years, j (1931-35) in the following five coun-1 ties: Hamilton, Wells, Scott, Switzerland and Daviess. By contrast there were 580 homocides during these five years in six other counties: Marion 216, Lake 200, Vander- < burg 49, Vigo 47, St. Joseph 40 and AUen 28. The studyreveals that in proportion to population homocides are: most numerous in the counties with relatively many negroes, and in the most populous counties, except that; Allen county (Fort Wayne) has only two-thirds of the state's average rate and St Joseph (South Bend) less than the average. The six counties having a relatively large percentage of their population foreign born have a rate only slightly higher than the state average. Omitting Lake county, the other five “foreign" coun- ’ . ties have only three-fourth the state average. “The most strictly rural counties have an average rate of only threefifths of the state average, but the increase southward is progressive and marked, from one-third in Northern Indiana to one-half in Central, to two-thirds in Southern Indiana," Dr. Visher says. “In the poorest section of the state, the south-central, the homocide rate is practically the state average despite the almost complete lack of negroes, industries or foreign borm" Death of A. P. Cory Aldred Paul Cory, only son of Mr. and Mrs. Chauncy Cory, Syracuse, was bom June 20, 1907 and died June 23, 1936 of cerebral hemorrhage.

BAND CONCERT DRAWS NUMEROUS CROWD

Merchants Cooperate to Sponsor Weekly Consert By Own Contributions A large and appreciative audience witnessed tne regular weekly band concert, held last night, at the corner of Huntington and Main streets. This band program is furnished through the cooperation of local business firms, which desire to help bear the expenses, and b maintained as a separate activity from the Syracuse Wawasee Chamber of Commerce. A band committea was appointed recently to secure subscriptions from as many of the local merchants, as were anxious to help support the band concerts through these summer months. The committee handles the entire management of the band, and they have their own treasurer. None of their funds pass through the Chamber of Commerce treasury. It is hoped that there will be an enthuiaßtic response to the band program next Wednesday night, when the band will present another concert at the corner of Huntington and Main streets.
