Apparent motivation for the petition drive was the firing of township police chief Bruce Angell about 3 months ago. Angell and township residents at the time protested the dismissal and it was then there was talk of petitions being circulated for recall. However, included also on the recall petitions is a protest over sewer rate adjustments. THE PETITIONS stated as reasons for a recall election, "an arbitrary, improper adjustment of sewer use rates within the township and arbitrarily and without cause discharged the police chief of DeWitt Twp and failed to maintain the proper communications with residents of DeWitt Twp. Emerson said the board as a whole, since the 1972 election had not changed sewer rates and the only person holding office (named in the petitions) when the rates were adjusted from $9.50 to $10.50 monthly was Syverson. An election date is expected to be set within 30 days. Not named in the petitions were trustees Roger Pline and. Bill Purves and treasurer Oliver Angell.

ST JOHNS - St Johns High School, along* with mpst high schools in the state, is, maDing a follow-up survey to all1 *1973. 'graduates who were enrolled in vocational, education programs. The goal of the followt' up survey Is to enable the local, school districts to gain a more complete and ac-. curate picture of what happens to ttiejr" graduates. Another purpose is to explore • the necessity for providing placement services' for all youths completing career, preparation programs. • ' ^ • •'* •, TJie survey will also help to determine the*t effectiveness of vocational education,' • • t programs as seen by Vocational Education graduates. The Michigan Department of Education provided forms, compilation and analysis services at regional data processing centers. Results of the study will give local districts, Career Education Planning Districts and the Michigan Department of Education a much clearer picture of what happens to graduates. School placement program effectiveness can be examined, enabling school systems to determine if there is a need for placement services.

Besides, we are sincerely interested in learning what and how you are doing," said Kenneth E. Lashaway, director of vocational education for St Johns Public Schools] , , ^ He said during the fight, lie had pushed against her neck to break the hold and later, she fell to the floor. BATH TWP--It's finally happened, After months and months'of "off again, on again" actions concerning the proposed Bath Twp sewer, construction finally got \ underway this week. The sewer project suffered numerous set backs including lack of sufficient votes on the board, then an injunction after the issue passed because of a petition protesting the amount of bonded indebtedness and other stumbling blocks along the way. A vote bv the board last year failed to have the sufficient number of "yes" votes, due partly to the fact that some, wanted to wait until a decision would be made about t federal funding assistance.. However, it became evident no federal Xunding would be available and the board then irjoved to cons.tr.uct the^sewer^ and maintain funds from the state. Since that time, court action by protesting residents of the township sought to halt construction. However, those actions were unsuccessful and the sewer is on the way.

JOHNS Another beating REP DOUGLAS TREZISE 87th District A proposal to refund $22.50 to every person who paid the $45 uninsured motorist fee last year was one of the most debated bills in the House of Representatives last week. Considering the fact that we now have "No-Fault" insurance and every car must be insured •• - by law — as of October 1,1973, this proposal would seem to be a fair one. Yet.v it could result in a situation where the big majority of Michigan's taxpayers, those who have carried automobile insurance regularly, will end up paying the bills for the accidents involving those people who carried nb insurance at all. .To explain that statement we have to go Back to- the beginning. /in 1966 an act was passed by j^rie Legislature requiring that "^persons wishing to register automobiles in Michigan must show proof of insurance to cover their liability to others who might be injured in an auto accident. It alsoi provided that, in lieu of this insurance, a person could pay into a state; opera ted fund, a specified sum which would be put into a pool to pay claims of those people who suffered losses in accidents involving people who did not carry insurance. In addition, for the first six years, insured drivers also paid $1 per year into this fund to assure there would be funds enough to meet the claims arising from accidents of the uninsured motorist. Unfortunately, many people got the notion they were buying "state insurance" with the payment of the Uninsured Motorist Fee. It was not insurance. It was a fund created for the protection of all other drivers against losses 'as the result of accidents involving those uninsured drivers. In fact, when a claim was paid from the fund, it was the responsibility of the state to try to collect the amount of that _ claim from the uninsured motorist who was involved; but, frankly, this aspect of the plan never was very successful. The logic behind the bill which, faced us last week was that, since uninsured motorists werexequired to pay $45 into the fund when they bought their license plates this year and, since insurance coverage' became compulsory on October 1 with the "No-FaultH law six months before new plates are required, we should refund one half of the $45 payment to those who paid into the fund. It seems logical enough. \Ve offer a combination . of mortgage insurance which will pay off- the niortgageif you die and REPLACEMENT INCOME, : INSURANCE , which . will make Ihepayments if you: are :' ;•",.sickor injured and catVt ', "" *'• '•'•- This fine coverage costs : less than you think!

Main, Elsie Phone 862-4227 Residence Phone 224-7580 Motorist Fund Is going to take another beating. Task Force offers ways to conserve home fuel LANSING - The Governor's Task Force on Fuel Supply is offering through the news media 21 ways to conserve fuel and money in the home. Of the 21,12 are listed as "things you can do that don't cost money." They are: 1. Turn down your thermostat 2 degrees s every other day, until you find the least temperature at which you can be comfortable. { (SEE PAGE 14A) But, when you recognize the purpose of the fund as it was created, some of the logic seems to fade away. According to the Secretary of State, who is charged with the management of this money, the total assets of the fund are expected to reach slightly over $67.6million during the next few years as it is being phased out. This includes interest on present funds, expected repayments, and new fees paid by motorcyclists who are not covered by "No-Fault" insurance. But the indication is that, if the $22.50 refund is given to this year's contributors the total obligations of the fund will be just about $70 million This means that, to pay the refund and meet anticipated obligations, we will have to put in more than $300,000 of general tax money. And, that money will have to come from the pockets of the majority of the people of Michigan who, in addition to paying for insurance all these years, paid $1 per year into the fund themselves to assure its solvency. It seems to me we were premature in authorizing this refund. I would have no quarrel with it if we were sure the money would be available in the fund itself; but, it will be several years before we can be certain of that. Unfortunately, my colleagues didn't agree with me and the bill passed the House and went on to the Senate. It is my feeling that, unless more fiscal responsibility prevails in that body, the average guy who paid for his insurance and paid his annual ~ dollar, into the Uninsured First Baptists have Missionary Banquet MORTGAGE f A Y W E N T : :.

Throughout all eleven/locations, thermostats have been turned down and lighting has been cut in buildings and parking areas. Bank vehicles have been assigned top speeds of fifty miles per hour and employees in every capacity are joining in efforts to use more efficiently the power at our disposal. And how does soft music and candlelight fit into all this? Well, you might say we're looking at the dim side to brighten the dark. It's our way of making the inconveniences of the times a little more acceptable... Candlelight and soft music soothes the spirit and this combination will be part of our service each Monday and Friday between the hours of 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. These are the times which exceed normal banking hours and times when we feel conserving energy would be most effective.

The program, called Supplemental Security Income, is scheduled to get underway January 1. It will be administered by the Social Security Administration, and is designed tq provide a basic monthly payment to aged, blind or disabled people living on a limited income. that some people eligible for the new program may not have heard about it. One move to try to reach some of these people is now underway. A joint letter from Social Services and Social Security has gone out to the Michigan residents who are enrolled in the state's Medicaid program but who do not qualify ''for a cash monthly payment from Social Services. • It appears that 20 to 25 percent of these people will be eligible for the Supplement * Security payment, because the Social Security Administration will be able to disregard a portion of an applicant's wages.

Justin Holy Cross Church, Lansing, Hermes, pastor of43t Joseph with interment at St Joseph Catholic Church in St Johns cemetery in Lansing. from 1949-1957 died Friday, December 7 in Flint, Michigan. Fr. Hermes had been retired since 1966 and was living at St Francis Church in Flint. Born in Lansing, Mich in 1901, he was ordained a priest in 1933 in Detroit. He served as When Hall of Fame star Joe associate pastor and pastor in 7 Joseph appears Dec 15 and 16 in parishes in the central Michigan area, and also was a special exhibition at the Chaplain at Post Hospital, Fowler Bowl, local bowlers will Battle Creek and Lee Hospital have the opportunity to see one of the game's most polished in Dowagiac.

Many of the people who will qualify for the new program are already receiving Old Age Assistance, Aid to the Disabled or Aid to the Blind through Social Services. These recipients will automatically be converted to the new SSI benefit at the end of December, ber. wages each month will not be counted, nor will half the remaining wages. Therefore a person earning $100 a month 1 would only have $17 of countable earned income, In addition, the first $20 of unearned income such as veterans benefits or Social Security retirement benefits will also not be counted. Because there are, several factors which affect qualifying for SSI, both Social Services and Social Security officials hope that the Medicaid recipients who received letters will review the information and then contact the Lansing District Social Security office if they think they may be eligible.

Land that has been set aside for conservation purposes is being freed for production in 1974. Now is the time for "Production With Protection" says Arthur H.

Soil survey information can be used to guide conservation and production, Soil surveys snw&d6e&M A recent report by the American Cancer Society states that almost 1.5 million living Americans have been cured of cancer, in that they are "without evidence of cancer at least 5 years after diagnosis and treatment". Oncologists, the kinds of physicians who specialize in the treatment of malignant tumors and conditions, warn, however, of a trend towards more cancer deaths last year, which they see continuing in 1974. This is the most notable increase in 22 years, and it accounts for a total of 166 deaths per 100,000 population, which is the way health statistics are usually compiled. In 1971 there were 161 deaths per 100,000, so that the increase for last year has gope up 3'times what the annual average was in 1950, The most important 'thing about ominous statistics like those is, of course, what we can learn from them which will prevent unnecessary death by cancer. The experts blame mostof the increase on greater exposure to cancer-causing chemicals in the environment. In a way the fight against pollution may also turn out to be a fight against the dreaded disease. How many new cases of cancer will be diagnosed next year? REHMANN'S OF ST. JOHNS The prediction is that as many as 1.3 million Americans will undergo that difficult experience. One other interesting trend is that for the last quarter of a century, cancer has claimed the lives of more men than women in the United States. For instance, in 1974 if is estimated that for every 54 men who die of cancer, only 46 women will succumb. The female decline on death rates, apparent since 1936, is due mainly to the fact that cancer of the cervic (the opening of the womb/ is easy to detect with up to date medical management. On the other hand, the rise among men is due mainly to an astronomical 1,400 percent increase in lung cancer, much of it in tum related to cigarette smoking. , Other common and curable if detected ;in time, forms of female cancer are breast, uterus and lower digestive tract malignancies. for men, the most common sites, outside of the lungs, which account for 21 percent of all cancers, are colon and/rectum (15 percent), prostate (16 percent) and urinary (9 percent). Again, the important thing to remember is that early diagnosis and treatment1 produce the best results. Nobody should ever let fear of cancer get in the way of a prompt and complete examination at the first sign of trouble.

All snowmobilers should follow Auto Club's urging that motorists cut gas consumption by 25 percent," said Joseph Ratke, Auto Club touring manager. If a voluntary step like this succeeds, it could head off more drastic measures, such as steep gas taxes or gas rationing, which would severely restrict travel to Michigan's outdoor recreational spots," he said. Auto Club commended the Michigan Marine and Snowmobile Dealers Association for their campaign to encourage members and nonmembers alike to cut snowmobile gas consumption by 15 percent. "rfowever, since statistics show that snowmobiles use less than one percent of Michigan's gas supply, snowmobilers must take additional steps to effectively help our state through the energy crisis,"--Ratke said. Auto Club points out that snowmobilers can economize on fuel while enjoying their sport by storing their vehicles at resort centers rather than hauling them long distances. Also, snowmobilers are urged to supplement some long-distance weekend trips by snowmobiling close to home. Boasting the highest nunjbe'r' "Towing a snowmobile does cut into a car's gas milea'ge," of registered snowmobiles in Ratke noted, adding that this the country~379,000--Michigan year there should be more also has these public facilities places than ever available for for snowmobilers: * snowmobile storage in -More than 100,000 acres at 70 Michigan's north country. state park and recreation areas As an example, he cited throughout Michigan. -Fifty marked trails covering Traverse Habor, a marina near Traverse City.'which is offering 1,300 miles in addition to 3,7 for the first time 400 indoor million acres of open country in snowmobile storage spaces at state forests. weekly rates ranging from $1.50 -Trails and scramble areas in for one-unit trailers to $3.75 for about 35 DNR public game four-unit trailers, areas (available for use fro~ Instead of numerous long- Jan. 1-March 31, 1973).
