Rain dampens ground, not
spirits, at Clinton 4-H Fair
It got wet at the 4-H Fair again this
year, but sunshine breaking through the
clouds Tuesday noon cleared away fears
the big summer event might be ruined by rain.
A heavy shower Monday evening washed
out one of two championship 4-H Softball
games, but that was the only weather casualty.
It was breakfast time for CathyFrench's rabbit Tuesday morning as Cathy
got her exhibits ready for judging at the
4-H Fair. She is the daughter of Mr and
Mrs Lyle French of 504 S. Swegies Street,
St. Johns, and is a member of the Happy
Hustlers 4-H Club. Cathy won a rosette

-IN ADDITION to changing the
schedule for dividing up motor
vehicle highway funds among the
Department of State Highways,
county road commissions and
cities and villages, the package
would have levied an extra 1
cent per gallon in gasoline taxes.
The additional money was the
main reason for the increases
noted by the Michigan GoodRoads
Foundation, although the changes
in the distribution formula would
also have an effect.

Tuesday morning 4-H'ers swung into action on their
scheduled events under a cloud-laden sky, but by the afternoon
the beef judging and showmanship contests were being carried
on in bright sunshine.
It's been a most successful and smooth-running fair so
far, F. Earl Haas, county Extension agricultural agent, commented Tuesday noon. A record number of 2,700 exhibit entries
were scattered through the four main buildings on the fairgrounds, and some 1,200 boys and girls were involved.
HAAS SAID A REPRESENTATIVE from the fair office
of the State Department of Agriculture witnessed the openingday activities Monday and commented that he had never seen
such a large group of people operate with so litUe confusion
as took place.
Haas complimented the 4-H leaders and the 4-H'ers
themselves for the smoothness of the whole operation.
Monday was a big day at the fair, with attendance much
greater than it used to be in past years. C r e d i t for this
was given to the horse show, which this year dre\y aTecord
346 entries and ran from 9 a.m. until after 6:30 p.m.
Just how many horses were involved was not known,
since many of them were entered in two or even three classes.
The number of entries was up considerably, however, reflecting
a surge in interest in horsemanship in the county. The county
4-H Horse Show has been an event of the 4-H Fair only in the
past three years,
THE FAIR CONTINUED Monday night under threats of
* severe weather. Clouds began building up in the warm, humid
air late Monday afternoon, and the county was under a tornado
"watch" until about midnight. Nothing came of it, however, until
shortly after 10 p.m., when a thunderstorm washed out a 4-H
softball game.
It was between the Victor 4-H team, undefeated so far
this year, and the Stoney Creek Club; Victor was ahead in the
game when it was called, and the teams hoped to be able to
play it off1 yet Tuesday.
In the first game of the evening at 7 p.m., Charlie's
Gang defeated Victor 23-18 for the White League championship.
Charlie's Gang rallied for 10 runs in the last inning; they
were held scoreless the first three Innings, then exploded for
3, 2, 8 and 10 runs. Victor scored 1 run in the second inning,
6 in the third, 1 in the fifth, 7 in the sixth and 3 in the seventh
inning.
THE MONDAY NIGHT rain—which varied from half an
inch to well over an inch in various parts of the county—created
some problems for the flower gardeners, who didn't cut their
School books are
ready
again
Mrs Laurita Allison of 606
S. Clinton Avenue has been rejuvenating and reshuffling tffe
supplies of school books for the
St. Johns Public Schools for 20
years.
This year, she said, "the number of students just about staggers the imagination." ,And the
number of school text and workbooks they'll be using this fall
does, too.
There are so many books involved, in fact, that Mrs Allison and her assistants have had
to move their summer book
mending and erasing headquarters out of the school bookstore
into classrooms. And come next
Monday when they start distributing the books, they'll be
in classrooms and the hallways
of Rodney B. Wilson High School.

Mrs Laurita Allison (right) and
assistant Shirley Hale of St. John's go
over the " lists of books ordered by ,the
r u r a l schools of the St. Johns system.
The packing and shipping of the books
is one of the last steps of a s u m m e r long job for the p a i r . '
THE BIGGEST, hardest, longest and most grueling job is all
over now* That is the erasing
of pencil and ink marks in the
books which students sell back
to the school e a c h spring.
There's also more than a nominal amount of patching torn
pages and covers.
Last week Mrs Allison andassistant Shirley Hale were packing up books to be sent to the
r u r a l elementary s c h o o l s .
They've received o r d e r slips
from the rural teachers request' ing certain numbers of certain
books for their students,' and
•those orders are now being filled.
Books have already been sent
out to the elementary schools
in the city. Books are supplied
free to grades one through six*
in both the city and' rural
schools; once beyond the sixth
grade students have to pay for
their own.
TWENTY YEARS AGO when
Mrs Allison began handling the
buying and selling of school books
to students, none of the books
were supplied free. The first
i six grades get them free now,
but Mrs Allison says she doesn't
think it will go much beyond that.
In some cities where schools
supply books, the students aren't
allowed to take them home for
homework, because of the high
* cost of replacing them If they're
lost or mutilated.
In the St. Johns Public Schools,
the "mortality' rate" of books
isn't too high, Mrs Allison said,
except for mathematics, In that
case, students seem to find the
pages and inside covers great
places for' doing their figuring,
See HEY, STUDENTS, Page 2-A
The Cuthbert boys, Dick, Donald and Jack, take their ducks
out of their pens for a last-minute inspection Tuesday morning

flowers for the 4-H Fair judging until Tuesday morning. But
a lot of entries came in anyway. Blue, red and white ribbons
began appearing on all the exhibits as judges made their decisions during the morning.
Tuesday afternoon it appeared that the vaudeville acts at
the bandshell would go on without a rain problem. The acts
were also scheduled for Tuesday evening.
Wednesday's finale included judging of dairy cattle at
9 a.m. and a dairy showmanship contest at 3 p.m. A 4-H
parade, style revue, talent show and presentation of awards
Wednesday evening at the band shell was the final event
scheduled.
EXTENSION OFFICIALS were extremely happy with the
quantity of exhibits and the numbers of youngsters participating
in the fair this year. Food exhibits increased in number to
over 500 this yea'r, with Home Economist Helen Meach noting
many outstanding food displays.
As of late Tuesday afternoon, here are the contests in'
which results had been tabulated:
JUNIOR DAIRY JUDGING: Tom Rivest, first; KathyHazle,
second; Yvonne Rivest, third.

The Red Cross Bloodmobile
will be in St. Johns today (Thursday) at the First Congregational
Church from noon until 6 p.m.
Previous donors, newcomers
to the area, young adults between
the ages of 18 and 21 and all
other adults are urged by the local Bloodmobile chairman to donate a pint of blood.
Strong support of the Bloodmobile, such as has been the case
during the past two years, will
not only provide needed blood for
accident and illness victims in
the near Mure but will also make
it possible for county residents
to obtain blood free whenever and
wherever they need it.
THE COUNTY is a part of the
national Bloodbank program and
will remain in it with donor support.
Particularly needed today is
type O-negative blood, according to Mrs Ken Spicer, St. Johns
Bloodmobile chairman. Persons
with that type are urged to donate a pint to bring the current
low supply in mid-Michigan up
to normal.
Previous donors were contacted by telephone Monday evening,
and Sealed Power, Federal-Mogul and the American Legionare
conducting recruiting drives in an
effort to insure a good turnout of blood donors. Last July
236 pints of blood were donated,
a record that still stands.
Blood will be drawn during the
early hours of the Bloodmobile
visit for open heart surgery tomorrow morning in Ann Arbor.

last week at a meeting of the
township trustees, and the order
noted that failure to meet the
specifications would result in a

THE OPERATION of buying
and selling school text books
at a school book store is a big
one, but it's not really complicated under the system used
by Mrs Allison.
At the close of school each
spring, students sell their books
at the school bookstore, located
just off the main office in the
high school. Seniors get cash
for the books they turn in; the
other students who sell theirs
get a credit slip for the amount
of the books. The credit slip is
redeemed in the fall and applied
to the cost of the new set of
books the student buys.
A record of the book cost is

EACH SPRING as a book comes
back to the bookstore, the buying
price is reduced about one-third
from the previous year, and if
it is returned in poor condition
the price may be cut in half.
In the fall the books are sold
at the price they were bought
in the spring.

"Citizen participation is only
possible if community leaders
show the way," he said. The tremendous change in attitudes on
the part of local business since
the start of the project survey
is most heartening, said Foster.
"The local merchant has come
out of the back room to see
why the customer doesn't buy.
If nothing else were to come of
this project the change In attitude and the determination to
do something about it will more
than repay itself in the long

"The City of St. Johns has a

to correct what is wrong."
If S t Johns Is to continue
going forward, Foster said, it
must
make
some decisive
decisions now. Foster concluded
that the people of the city want
to be looked' at as a forward

can take pride. The proposed

One of the greatest comedies
of this century opens at the

Aug. 23 for a week's run. Noel
Coward's "Private Lives" will
feature Nancy Cole and Jay Davis
in the roles written originally
for Gertrude Lawrence and
Coward himself.
The play has been produced
hundreds of times since its smash
London opening in 1932 and has
always been enthusiastically received by both critics and audiencesThe opening situation is amusing enough itself, and Coward's
clever variations as the play
progresses make it infinitely
more amusing. Amanda and
Elyot, divorced from each other,
meet on the balcony of a hotel
where each is spending his honeymoon with his new spouse.

is the first reaction, things get
a little complicated when they
find themself still very much in

These unlucky new mates,
played by Jerry Mayer and Kate

Adult education
classes enroll 16,000
The State Department of Education reports that 75 school
districts in the state are expected to conduct basic education classes for 16,000 adults
this year.
The adult basic education program was conducted in 62 school
districts last year, serving 10,000 adults who had completed
less than six years of school.
Michigan began the program
In 1965 with 26 school districts
and 4,000 adults participating.
Michigan was one of only five
states at that time which conducted basic education courses
for adults. Now, all 50 states
have such classes which are financed with federal funds.
Michigan hospitals have more
than 500 foreign interns and
r e s i d e n t physicians on their
staffs.
St. Johns Public Schools are
still in need of a math teacher,
stringed instrument teacher and
a speech correctionist, Supt. of
Schools Earl Lancaster said last
week . . . The S t Johns School
District received approval from
the state fire marshal last Friday for architect Doug Pardee's
plans for the new neighborhood
elementary schools in both the
southeast and southwest parts
of the district. . ,
Lloyd Welch with 'worm'
The board of directors of the
Chamber of Commerce and the
Retail Division of the Chamber
have each allocated $500 for new
Christmas lighting in the downtown area this year. Lester Lake
will head a committee to go to
Bronner's at Frankenmuth yet
this month to pick out the new
decorations . . .
How'd you like to meet up with that big, healthy-looking
"tomato worm" in your garden. Lloyd Welch of 904 S. Oakland
Street did, and he said he "jumped 20 feet backward" when
he first saw it on a sweet corn plant. Actually, it's not even
a worm. It's common smut, which grows on corn and oats
and when it dries becomes powdery. It's a kind of fungus.
Welch said he's never seen it in that shape before and doesn't
hope to again. The "worm" was in Welch's garden on the
William Simmons farm on Faragher Road northeast of town.

Marathon Co-Op team
wins softball tourney
Co-Op won the St. Johns city
softball tournament last Thursday night'with three victories
in consecutive games that ran
until 1:45 a.m. Friday.
They defeated Benson's 5-1
in the first game and then took
a pair of wins from defending
champions Burton Corners (Ovid)
5-2 and 9-7.
The three games were necessary because of a Wednesday
rainout and the fact the local
winner was to play Friday night
in the district tournament, at
Hastings. The three games may
have been too much for Co-Op,
because they lost 9-5 to Lansing
Strohs in that district contest.
IN THE FIRST game Jast
Thursday, Co-Opbangedouteight
hits to hand Snyder the loss and
eliminate Benson's from the
tournament. Norm Love was the
winning pitcher, allowing only
four hits, including two by Dave
Guy. Gene Rademacher had two
hits and Les Warner two doubles
•for Co-Op.
Rademacher picked up the victory over Burton Corners in the
second game* though he had to
be r e l i e v e d by Love.Dennle Blalceslee had three hits and
Rademacher a two-run triple as
Co-Op got six safeties £o pin the
defeat on Jerry Herblet. Rademacher and Love allowed Ovid
only two hits.
Co-Op's victory tossed the
double-elimination tournament
into the third game of the evening, which turned out to be a
slug-fest. Each team got nine
hits, but Co-Op pushed across
9 runs to only 7 for Burton
Corners. Norm Love was the winning pitcher and Larry Darling
. the loser.
FOR , CO-OP, LEE Hill and
Gene Rademacher had two hits
each, including- a triple each,
and Norm Love and Les Warner
had two hits. Lee Darling and
Bob Mulder had two hits each
for Burton Corners.
The Co-Op wins over Burton
Corners were sort of a revenge
for a 7-0 defeat they suffered
last Tuesday night In one of the
earlier games of the tournament.
In other games Aug. 9, Ben-,
son's beat Becker's 7-4 and Bee's
8-3. '
AFTER THE LOCAL tournament, four teams represented
the
city in district tourneys
around the, state.

Norm Love was the losing pitcher. Monday night in the consolation round, Co-Op blasted Sunfield 8-3 on nine hits, two by Al
Werbish and Including a triple
by ' Tony Lyman and a double
by Dennie Blakeslee. They'll play
again Thursday at 8:30 in Hastings.

hits on the mound and fanned 11

10 records set
in swim meet
Despite c o o l and c h i l l i n g
swimming conditions from startto finish, 10 new records were
established last Thursday night
at the annual St. Johns City
Swim Meet.
But the weather did take its
toll. A number of events were
"scratched," particularly in the
relay events that took place toward the end of the meet. And
the total number of youngsters
•participating in the races and
diving events was down somewhat over last year, due in
part because of the chill and
part because of the one-day postponement by rain.

was first established.
Cathy Stoddard set a new time
record in the lOOrfoot free style
swim for junior girls. She was
clocked at 21.0 seconds, and that
beat the old record of 21.3 she
set last year.

recalled
SOUTHEAST EAGLE - Mrs
Victor Clark has just returned
from a five week tour which
originated at Central Michigan
University and was composed for
the most part of people engaged
in all fields of education. The
Grand Ledge teacher read background materials and studied for
the past year preparing for the
tour.
The first stop on the flight
was in the Hawaiian Islands,
where the tour visited the three
largest islands, Hawaii, Maui and
Oahli. Japan was next on the
itinerary. Highlights there were
visits to Tokyo and Kyato where
Secretary of State Dean Rusk and
many prominent officials, both
Japanese and American were
gathered for the recent negotiations with Japan.
Mrs Clark particularly enjoyed
watching the Japanese and American press at work on this conference. An especially proud moment for Mrs Clark was meeting
the visiting teacher greeting her
with, "Good Morning, fellow
countryman."
Two blocks from the Miyako
Hotel, where the tour was having dinner, was a student demonstration. Guests were taken
up to observe the street fighting from the rooftop of the hotel,
shots were heard and waiters
explained that these were only
blanks, the guests weren't sc
sure.
Famous Mt. Fujlrjama was
wreathed in a fog, so the group
of travelers were denied the
pleasure of seeing this beautiful
landmark. They did, however, enjoy the well known mineral baths
nearby.
FOLLOWING THE ceremony,
the bridal party greeted the 250
guests at a dinner reception in
the Slovak Hall at Bannister.
Both bride and groom are
graduates of Elsie High School
and the bride, also from Northwood Institute. The groom is a
senior at Michigan State University.

of a method at the Rehabilitation
Center in Philadelphia, Pa., for
teaching the retarded; it impressed her and gave her new
hope. She searched for several
months around Midland before
finally getting the red school

Mrs Hardy, aided by her husband, opened the Emmanuel

1964. Since then she has r e turned to Philadelphia to learn
even more about the systems
needed for teaching in her school.
She gets first-hand assistance
in the teaching program from

remarked that It must take a

The Church is the greatest factor
on earth for the building of character
and good citizenship. It is a storehouse of spiritual values. Without a
strong Church, neither democracy
nor civilization can survive. There
are four^sound reasons why every
person should attend services regularly and Bupport the Church. They
are: (1) For his own sake. (2) For his
children's sake. (3) For the sake of
his community and nation. (4) For
+he sa" a of the Church itself, which
needs his moral and material support.
Plan to go to church regularly and
read your Bible daily.

THE NUN'S STORY
By Kathryn "Hulme
In many, of us the need cries
out for more privacy, for a less
distracted,, more dedicated life
than circumstances permit. This
need for inner renewal so beautifully certified by Mrs Lindbergh's Gift from the Sea Is
Illuminated for us by a new
witness, The Nun's Story by
Kathryn Hulme.
This book actually happened;
it i s true in its essentials. It
is the portrait of Sister Luke,
a Belgian girl who turned aside
from marriage to enter a famous nursingorder.In the trials,
medical a n d spiritual, w h i c h
Sister Luke must pass a s she
m o v e s from novice nun and
'thence out to a hospital in the
Belgian Congo, s h e makes us
feel the humility of the true
religions—she makes us admire
her superiors—what rarewomen
are the Superior General and
Mother Mathildal She makes us
•realize as never before what, a
voice the conscience must be
in such a life.
THE CHAPTERS on Africa
a r e the heart of the book; the
spirit of Dr. Schweitzer walks
through them, and when a t the
end of her assignment Sister
'Luke t a k e s her touching departure in h e r c o m p a r t m e n t
banked with flowers and the little
ebony statue in her lap, our love
for her is like that of the natives.
"Yet it is in her obedience that
Sister Luke is most vulnerable.
F o r she is more nurse than
nun. When in 1940 her hospital
'on the Dutch border i s caught
up in the Resistance, her abhorrence for the Nazis cannot be
subdued. So begins the deciding
struggle within herself.
The author, Kathryn Hulme,
who won the Atlantic Nonaction
Award in 1953, is writing about
a woman immeasurably dear. To
read "The Nun's Story" is to be
brought within the radiance of
a noble, deeply felt experience.

A GIRLS' PHYSICAL education
teacher has been hired, allowing
an expansion of the physical education program .for the girls.
Electricity and electronics have
also been added to the currlc-
culum. These important expansions to the curriculum also add
to the increased cost.
At the present time, the OvidElsie Area Schools has two voted
mills for operation. A comparison of schools in the area and
the number of voted mills they
have for operation a r e as follows: St. Johns, 4.5 mills; Owosso, 1 mills; Corunna, 3 mills
and voting for 4 more on Sept.
12; St. Louis, 5 mills; Ithaca,
6 mills; Fowler, 5 mills; Bath,
6 mills; Durand, 5 mills; Perry,
7.3 mills; Haslett, 14 mills; Okemos, 13 mills; and Lansing 17
mills.
THE BOARD OF Education i s
asking for four mills for one, year.
One year was selected because
the two mills now authorized will
end this year. Having both issues
expire at the same time should
be less confusing in the future.
A public meeting to explain the
need for the millage will be held
in the Ovid High School gym on
Wednesday, Aug. 24, a t 8 p.m.
and in the Elsie High School gym

TARGET
with the St. Johns
Chamber of Commerce
By BETTY MINSKY
Secretary-Manager
U!
Just today I had an opportunity
j , to glance at a large map depicting the proposed Sleepy Hollow
State Park to be located near
St. Johns in the not too far
* future, thanks to the State Conservation Department.
As one views this huge r e c 1
reatlonal , complex,' it is hard
" t o believe that it will be "man
made."
*
Take for instance thatbiglake.
* Some 550 acres of water, ideally
• laid out and positioned in the
' over-all plan so as to provide
I the ultimate in recreational use.
«
|
AND, SCENIC too, what with
i a bridge and all that will sort
I of divide it into one area for
I boating and another for fishing.
[
And, if the lake looks as good
1
when it is finished as it does
; now on paper, it will be a real
; achievement, what w i t h its
] curves and inlets. When you talk
t about man-made lakes people so
\ often think of round or oblong
puddle like holes. But not this
lake. For its shape would cause
one to believe it was truly a
work of nature itself.
Adding to its character a r e
two islands to be located in the
main portion of the lake, p r o viding 'additional scenic benefits and convenience.
AND, THOSE FELLAS in the
Conservation Department have
thought of everything. There a r e
several nice boat launching sites
planned, what looks like more
than ample parking space scattered throughout the park area,
a 20-foot-wide scenic road curving around the east lake shore
which will quickly get visitors
into all park facilities easily and
without congestion.
Then, -there's an abundance
of naturalistic areas, including
the entire west lake shore which
has deliberately been left void
of development. This will be
preserved in a natural state.

Another area, located south
of Price Road, is slated to be
left as a wildlife refuge and for
anyone who has visited these in
other state parks, a real treat
is being offered area residents
and other visitors who will come
to Sleepy Hollow.
PARKING HAS been considered, and spacious spots are being
r e s e r v e d near the two boat
launching sites, too, so thatcars
and trailers can be quickly parked close by.
As one enters the park, the
control station and park office
will be located nearby. Here information will be available about
the park facilities.
In the naturalistic areas, miles
of winding trails and paths will
be laid, with interpretive devices
along the wayside calling attention to the attraction.
That this park, when completed, is going to be of importance
to St. Johns can hardly be disputed. And while it may, to some
evtent, attract residents from
St. Johns and other surrounding metropolitan areas, it will
in no way be limited in scope
to area residents. Instead, tourist authorities and conservation
department officials feel that it
will bring a large number of new
people into the area, with many
anticipated f r o m Indiana a n d
Ohio, who will stop off here
rather than continue north. AND, A LARGE number of
people from the general central
Michigan area may utilize the
park, rather than travel north.
This, of course, will all add to
the economy of the area as these
people spread out into surrounding communities to do their shopping.

..-(..Home preservation of foodisn't
v-<hist a homemaking practice of
grandmother's time. According
to specialists at Michigan State
University, studies made during
the last 10 years reveal that
canning and home preservation
of food are still important.
Even with the popularity of the
freezer today, more homemakers
are canning than freezing fruits
and vegetables, but over half of
all homemakers use a home
freezer for some food preservation.
THE STUDIES also showed that
the peach is the most popular
fruit for canning, while the tomato is by far the most popular
vegetables for freezing purposes, strawberries led the way,
followed by raspberries, blueberries, and black berries.
Geographically, home canning
was most popular In the east

are and have been wrongfully treated. But
certainly there are better and more peaceful ways than 'the protest march to bring
these-facts into the open.
The "march" has worn itself out, and
in that condition it is a menace to the
' navigation of society.
For many years now the protest march
has been a means of voicing discontent,
particularly in racial* problems -but italic,
with labor movements,, There has always
Taeen some doubt as to "the effectiveness
of such a protest. Recently our doubts
have been confirmed.
" The racial protest marches through
the white. neighborhoods in the Chicago
area incited violence, and stiirthe leaders
of the march promise they'll return again.
The long-distance marches through the
south have resulted in gunshot wounds and
gunshot deaths.
We sympathize with the Negro cause
and agree that in many, many cases they
Negroes have become almost pushy
in their demands, and this h.as incited
contempt from the whites, just as the
whites' pushiness in the earlier days of
our nation incited the contempt of the
Negroes. But two wrongs don't make a
right. '
Pushiness has resulted only in contempt, and this is not the answer that will
bring about racial justice. The "march"
has marched itself out, and it must now
be replaced by a firm, friendly, individual
•effort at desegregation and inter-racial
understanding.
Anyone challenging the rapid r i s e in
registrations of .motorcycles and motor
scooters would have to be both blind and
deaf. The streets and highways are full
of them.
Of more concern, though, is the booming increase in the number of accidents
involving these two-wheelers. .
According to figures for May released
by the Michigan state police, 16 deaths
resulted from accidents involving motorcycles and motor scooters.
In 1965, 46 persons were killed in
accidents involving the two-wheelers. This
is not the complete story on fatalities of
this nature, because these figures do not
include fatalities in cities of 25,000 or
more.
'
: v>
The 1965 accident co.utit involving two-*
wheeled vehicles is 91 per -cent greater
than 1964.
If you think there are, more of these
motorcycles on the road, you are right.
Motorcycle and scooter registrations jumped 66 per cent from 1964 to 1965. The
increase will be even greater this year,
according to the secretary of state.
1965 figures on accidents indicate that
50 per cent of the accidents involving twowheelers had drivers under 20. ' . - , , ,
Most frequent violations noted were
excessive speed, following too closely,
improper overtaking and failure to yield
the right-of-way.
As the popularity of the motor bike
i n c r e a s e s , so does the need for stronger
licensing laws, better enforcement and
safety education.
It is too easy for an inexperienced
motor bike enthusiast to climb aboard a
rented bike and take off down the highway.
A good place to begin on* 'making this
fast-growing sport safe is to tighten the
licensing restrictions—even make a special
license necessary, as is" the case where
truck drivers need a chauffeur's license.
Making cars safe has kind of a hollow
ring unless we do Something about the
two-wheelers, too.

A new wave of this type of crime aimed

RAMBLIN'

By LOWELL G. RINKER
Let's j u s t ramble around
again this week.
Each month the Clinton County News sends out to Its 38
out-county correspondents a
small-format 16-page magazine called "Folks," which
gives writing tips and information for correspondents. We
sponsor it along with the Michigan Press Assn., and it is
published in Waupun, Wise.
One of the monthly columns
in it is entitled "Leaves from
the notebook of Cathie Crabb."
It always has some good homespun yarns and phrasing, so
I pass some of the stories on
to you (with apologies to our
correspondents who will be
reading them for the second
time).

"HAVE YOU noticed," Doc
Thorne said to Pa, as they
lazed on the back steps in the
September sun, "how in election year th e speeches get

well, not since I lost that 10
pounds."
"Leo is a good barbecue
cook,"1 Lottie Martin said as
we folded up the patio furniture after the season's last
cook-out. Fervently she added,
"But, God help me with the
dishes!"

walking to the post office and
something bumped his heel. "A

over and let him pass."
Wonder how many flatthumbed housewives there are
in the U. S. A. from ironing
their thumbs while watching
television as they work.
Grandma w i 11 e 11 s was so
thrilled with her new all-electric kitchen that we all went
home with her from club to
see it. "After lunch," she exp l a i n e d as we trailed h e r
through the house, "I transferred a finished load from
the automatic washer, to the
drier, reloaded the washer and
the sdraped lunch dishes and

p'ush buttons, and now when I
come home the work is done,
like magic," Triumphantly she
swung open the doors of all
three machines. In the sudden
silence she chuckled, "But it's
so hard to remember to push
the buttons."
"SOMETIMES WE forget that
all gifts are not shiny," theRev
John Hopgood says. "The child
who learns 'please' and 'thank
you' as magic words rather than
as duty words receives a gift

When Pa is working on our*

Dear Friends,
Now that I'm back in Argentina and so far away, I want to
drop you a note to thank all of
you for the kindness you had
towards me during my stay among
you.
I still remember the day I
came to Detroit without knowing
who my family would be and
where I would be staying during
the next seven months'. But everything turned out excellent. I met
the family and I can say t h a t
I was so happy to live with Sulkas
and share their customs and activities. They did so much for
me, and I appreciate every little
thing they did, because I certainly
knew they took a big responsibility by having a student with
other customs and who they didn't
even know before.
I WAS ALSO lucky to get to St.
Johns,—A small town that will
always reamain in my heart.
You, whoml'mspeakingtonow,
were the nicest people I've ever
met. I never felt alone; l gained
so many friends for today and
tomorrow. And I hope I'll see
you again some day-either in St.
Johns or in my hometown.
All of you were always willing
to help me. I was always invited
somewhere, and perhaps you
don't realize it, but I was very
very busy. I enjoyed speaking in
front of different groups of very
interesting people, and going out
and meeting different people, too.

IT'S A SHAME that with all the advance notice
of last week's city swim meet, two of the four lights
over the pool were burned out (putting the east end in
darkness when the sun went down), the globe on one of
the others was broken, the bottom of the pool was
liberally coated with dirt and there was broken glass
on the ground just off the sidewalk outside the fence. (
THE CURRENT MOTORCYCLE CRAZE has caused
more than a little concern over the safety and wellbeing of pedestrians who use the central portion of
our city park. Motorcycles, and bicycles as well,
have been making a raceway of the large dirt pile in
the center of the park. Tha city attorney has been
drafting a document making that out-of-bounds as a
roadway, but it would seem the cyclists caught up there
could also be tagged for reckless driving.

25 YEARS AGO
from the
HOPPER
By STEVE HOPKO
Following the assassination
of President John F. Kennedy
and recently after the antics
of the sniper at the University of Texas, there has been
much talk and a few bills introduced in congress concerning
gun legislation.
This latest round of talks and
discussions are similiar to
others of-the past. A crime of
great magnitude has been committed and our congressmen
would like to stop It with new
legislation. A noble gesturel
But, their cure will not stop
what they are intending it to
do.
WHEN A criminal commits
a crime with a gun, many in
public office seem to think that
the only way to stop crimes in
which guns are used is to forbid, in one way or another,
the right of the people of this
country to possess firearms.
They talk of the great number of firearms owned by the
people of this country and how
they are so easily obtainable.
This is true. In the United
States we have m i l l i o n s of
sportsmen who own and u s e
firearms. But, they use them
for the sole purpose for which
they acquired them, to use in
the sport which suites their
taste.
WHAT OUR congressmen
seem to overlook, Is the fact
that of the number of people
using firearms to commit a
crime, this is only a small
percentage of the people who
own firearms.
Senator Dodd, who was one
of the first to offer a bill to
congress that would restrict the
sale of firearms to the public Is also of the opinion that
disarmament and the restricting of firearms sale to the
public is not the answer to our
prbblem of men using these
weapons for adverse reasons.
THIS GREAT rush to pass
legislation following the assassination and the sniper is a
normal reaction of a human
being who Is shocked at a catastrophe such as these. But,
rushing in and passing legislation that will not help curb
this type of thing Is useless to
-the public.
In one day, a sniper in Texas
killed fifteen people. This
shocked and outraged many people and many congressmen. Any
holiday weekend, or just any
weekend, we can expect at least
this many to be killed on our
highways. Still, we as a nation
do not seem overly concerned
about the dlstructive power of
the automobile.
BUT, LET someone take a
firearm and do the same thing,
either delibertly or accidentally, and these deaths become a
great concern.
Personally I can see no difference in being killed by a gun
or a car. The end result is
the same.

Rep. John -W. Byrnes (Wis.)
"...
I am today introducing
a bill to provide automatic increases in social security benefits whenever the consumer
price index has risen 3 per

military retirement laws. These
provisions are also <very prevalent in labor agreements.
"As soon as. possible after

A GRASSROOTS COMMENT
Many individuals have only
their social security benefits to
provide a decent standard of
living. The'^scalatorprovision"
would be welcome.
Other individuals who are receiving a company annuity in
addition to social security are
contacting - their companies in
the hope of securing a cost-ofliving increase. It is unlikely
that their requests will be granted inasmuch as the original financing of their plan made no
provision for cost-of-living increases.
Individuals who believe that
Rep. Byrnes' bill H. R. 16354
has merit may wish to advise
.him of their support. Voter
apathy will relegate the bill to
the proverbial pigeonhole.—J. C.
