Clinton County Prosecuting Atty. Roland J. Duguay disclaims any responsibility or involve­ment in the "folding up" of the Rapid Reading Co., Inc., brought to public attention along with Duguay in last Friday's "Action Line" column in theDetroitFree Press.

"I have never received one cent of attorney fees, salary or pay of any kind for anything i did for Rapid Reading, Inc., which was limited to giving them ad­vice for the first seven months of its operation," Duguay said in a letter to members of the Clinton-Gratiot Bar Assn., Clinton County Board of Super­visors, and area law enforce­ment officers.

"Thereafter, .1 had no power, authority, control or any means to do anything oyer the remain-

t ing officers and directors." Duguay' said he hoped his let-*

ter would clear up the situation, but if it didn't he would resign.

"It is not my wish to quit,* he said, «but the office is that of chief law enforcement officer for the county. As such, it should

never be held by anyone If there is the slightest question of In­tegrity. .,.

"IF THIS MATTER becomes cleared, I hope to continue, at least to the end of the year when my term ends automati­cally. If, however, this matter is not cleared, and if any question of integrity exists, then I should not remain as your prosecuting attorney,"and my resignation will then be made available upon request of Judge (Leo) Corkin or the county board of super­visors."

Rapid Reading, Inc., apparent­ly folded about a year ago, ahd a Troy r e s i d e n t wrote "Action Line' that he had paid $189 for a 24-week speed reading course. Two thirds of the way through the course, he said, the company folded and just disappeared. ,\_:

How does It feel to be shot down in a helicopter over Viet Nam?

"There are too many things on your mind to be frightened," re­ports Terry Estes, son of Mr and Mrs Herbert D. Estes of St. Johns. "Your nerves and actions are there and alert, but your mind and heart are back home with your family."

Estes was stationed with an as­sault helicopter, company in an air mobile unit with afour-mancrew In Viet Nam. Their mainfunction was to insert infantrymen into Viet Cong positions.

On Estes'last mission Sep,t. 7 at 12:45 p.m. the 'copter was as­signed to lay down a smoke screen as protection for troops.

"We had completed four runs over the* nepa palm (trees and ground cover) and were on the fifth and last pass.You couldhear bullets hitting the plane on every pass, ping, ping, ping, but on the last* pass we were hit with 50 caliber fire, and the aircraft caught fire. We were at an alti­tude pf about 60 feet and tried to land the ship, but it crashed on its left side andburstintoflame."

M ' "MY CLOTHING and shoes Were soaked in fuel. With help from the other crew members, we all foui* escaped through the plane's sky window."

"We got 30 yards away when the whole tiling exploded and there was a complete loss of the air­craft." • So in a matter of two months arid three days Terry had been shot down for the fifth time. This time he wasn't so lucky, he re­ceived abroken arm,lacerations,, and shrapnel In the right knee.

Estes is home now to recuper­ate in a body "cast to the waist,

and his cast.

right arm also is In a

When asked why they hadn't given up the mission sooner with all the hits they had suffered to the aircraft, Estes replied "You just don't give up when those guys down,below need help."

Because of the seriousness of his wounds, Estes was returned to the United States and Walter Reed Army Hospital In Washing­ton. His parents visited him a week agolastweekend,andhewas then allowed to return home with them. He is presently recovering in St. Johns.

attorney general's office was looking into the complaint and others, about the company. Of­ficial documents," they report, listed puguay as the president^ founder and registered^ agent of Rapid Reading. They said postal1

1 mail inspectors want to talk to ' him about the company."

Duguay said he did help or­ganize Rapid Reading, Inc., "for purposes of incorporation," but •that he resignedaboutayearago,

"I was made officer and di­rector on a temporary basis pri­marily for purposes of-having the legally required number for incorporation," he said. "Mylaw office was used as resident office only because they* then .had .no determined location In the De­troit area where it would limit its operation.

"I did have enough fa th tnthg.t _ business ;so that'll, invested a ' share, and I became a SO per

cent stockholder.' The legal fees for incorporation 'were to come from operations after the busi­ness had a chance to get a Start.

"After seven months of'that operation, and while the company had all of its bills paid cur­rently and appeared „to have bright hope for the future, I then resigned as ah officer, director and as their resident agent. This was an \amicable break that I had made* because I was going to move to St. Johns to takeover the prosecutor's office.

"I could neither 'give them any further time; nor would my

'law office be further available to be used as its resident office. My resignation was in June of 1967.

"Thereafter, I had;,norpower, authority, control or any means to do anything over the remain-

- ing officers and directors. I did urge them several times to elect new officers and this was even' accomplished once, but they ap­parently -never followed up "to legally-file this with State of Michigan records. .

"Even though the" management ability of some of the remaining officers and directors could be questioned today based on second questioning,, there was never a question"of their honesty, sin­cerity or desire to have the business flourish or to continue. Nor did I ever have any reason to question any -business prac­tices conducted by the company. All of that company's problems stemmed strictly from lack of money or working capital."

String orchestra teacher hired

The St. Johns School District has hired a new string orchestra teacher, ending debate and dis­cussion about whether the seven-year school program would be dropped ttilfs year.

Margaret Hawn, a graduate of the University of New Mexico in strings, was hired last Friday. She Is near completion of a mas­ter's degree in music theory from the University of Indiana,

Talk of dropping the string or­chestra program has been wide­spread since a teacher hired for the Job at the beginning of the year resigned after three days because of family illness.

Because It has been difficult to hire and hold good string teachers, the school board con­sidered dropping the course, which involved some 40 students in the upper seven grades at the start of this year. Parents voiced opposition at a meeting a couple of weeks ago, and seven were present when the school board held a special meeting last Wed­

nesday night to discuss that and other business.

The hiring of the new strings teacher came within a few days.

HIRING A FULL staff of teach­ers has been somewhat a prob­lem for the St. Johns district, this year. The district still needs a speech correctionlst and a girl's physical education teacher, although they do have a substitute handling the latter Job on a tem­porary basis.

The board may take some ac­tion next month to set up a citi­zens committee to study cur­riculum. About 30 persons would be named to the committee.

The board discussed the pos­sibility of 25-mile-per-hour speed limit] signs in the vicinity of the Eureka School instead of the present 40-mph signs. They may ask the county road com­mission for the lower speed limit.

attempted rape, while Lansing Police would probably charge kidnapping and assault.

The crime first took place in Lansing. Mary Hulbert, 19, of Lansing got into her parked and locked car near Eastern High School after a t t e n d i n g night classes and was struck on the head by a weapon she thought was a gun. The attack took place in the car.

The man demanded money of her, but when she said she didn't have any she was struck three more times. The assailant then climbed into the front seat and drove her car to Drumheller Road a quarter-mile from Park Lake Road in Bath Township where the car became stuck.

He reportedly attempted to attack the girl there but was repelled. While he was out of the car, Bath Police Chief Gay-lord David pulled up to check out th4 par-jand found tHe ylcttin. She was taken to Sparrow Hos­pital where more than 20 stitches were needed to close scalp wouncls.

Lansing detectives and state police are Investigating. State troopers, Bath and DeWitt Town­ship police, DeWitt city police and Clinton County sheriff's offi­cers were in on the man-hunt.

Transfer to St Johns appealed

The Fowler School Board is appealing the transfer of prop­erty owned by Stephen Simmon on Kinley Road in Bengal Town­ship from the Fowler to the St8 Johns School District.

The Fowler Board is seeking to reverse the decision of the Clinton County Intermediate School District, but the St. Johns school board has decided to fight Fowler's appeal.

They noted the St. Johns school bus already passed by the corner of Simmons' farm. They said last Wednesday they didn't want to "steal* property fromanother district, but as long as Simmons had requested the transfer they' were going to back him up.

The State Board of Education may eventually decide the ques­tion.

Two other recent transfers of property to the St. Johns dis­trict from Fowler met no oppo-sfitioniiiThat was* property on TaJt Road owned by Lawrence Sturgis and property on Francis Road owned by Paul Pung.

P~W studies building needs P E W A M O-WESTPH ALIA -

The Pewamo-Westphalia Board of Education met with the former building and steering committees last week to discuss future plans for expanding the school plant.

It was almost two years ago when the P-W Board of Educa­tion asked for the assistance of approximately 50 people includ­ing interested citizens and teach­ers of the district to make a comprehensive s tudy of the school p r o g r a m and building needs.

Committees were formed and ' their studies were finalized with reports and recommendations presented to the board in May of last year.

With the defeatof two operat­ing millage issues in June and August last year, the building recommendations we re tabled until operating millage was pro­vided for. • *fj*

As the school district is still plagued with the problems of in­creased enrollments and the re­sulting need for additional space, the board is again turning to the citizens committee for advice.

After hearing the reports and numerous suggestions by the committee members^ itwassug-gested that the facultywouldwork with the respective members of the former study committee to review and update the former recommendations.

Another meeting is set for Monday evening/Oct. 7.

(A quick tour of some of the thoughtful new features the 1969 Chevrolets offer that other cars in Chevrolet's field don't.)

Headlight washers You push the windshield

washer knob and hold it, and your headlights come clean.

Fluid is diverted to two jet nozzles at each light lens. (Outer lights only oh duals1.) :.

The spray removes up to 80% of accumulated dirt. .;.

The feature is standard on 1969 Corvettes. I t comes with-the hidden headlights available on. Camaro, Caprice and Kingswood Estate Wagons. It is available on all other .models except Corvair.

Heated glass In a moment your rear win­

dow will self-defrost Because we*ve built onto it

a network of tiny ceramic strips capable of heating the" entire sur­face.

Fog and frost disappear quickly and quietly. You just flick

, a switch, The heated rear window" is

available on the 1969 Caprice Coupe and Impala Custom Coupe.

Pushbutton tire chains You press a button on the

instrument panel and the rear tires get a shot of "liquid tire chain."

You spin your wheels once, -wait a moment, and you're off— with traction you wouldn't be­lieve possible on slick ice, or packed snow.

Available on all 1969 big Chevrolets. + -

Steering wheel lock . When you own a car as de--

sirable as : the 1969 Chevrolet, you don't take chances.

When you leave it, you lock it. Not jxist the doors. You lock the ignition, steer­

ing wheel and transmission lever, too.

Our new lock on the steering column takes care of all that.

Standard on all 1969 Chev­rolets, Chevelles, Chevy Novas, Camaros and Corvettes'.

Walk-in wagons The tailgate swings open like

a door on most of our 1969 station wagons.

Allen to hike Clinton County 4-H Club 'Chatter' length of district Richard Allen, Republican can­

didate tor state representative, will attempt to walk from one end of the 88th District to the other this weekend.

Allen, son of the incumbent representative, said he intends to start in Coleman near the northern end q£ the district at noon, on Friday. He hopes to ar­rive in Grand Ledge near the, southern end of the 88th by noon Monday. '

Allen's plans are to walk down Coleman Road in Midland County, along Alger Road in Gratiot, Wright Road in Clinton and M-100 in Eaton County. .

This would fulfill a promise made beforethe primary to walk from one end of the district to the other on a three-day weekend. The1 total distance is about 100 miles.

The pledge was made in the Grand Ledge and northern Mid­land County areas where many feel that the unusual length of the district robs them of fair representation.

"ALTHOUGH I'VE had some second thoughts about it since,* Allen said, «i said if I won the primary I would make this hike for the following reasons, partly silly, partly serious:

"1} To celebrate; 2) to demon­strate the energy and determina­tion with which I intend to fulfill this position; 3) to meet people; 4) to emphasize that the 100 miles from one end of the district to the other makes it one of the longest, most unfairly shaped districts in the state."

, were possible to send one to every boy from .this area, and hope there will be some way possible for them to do this.

They scored two. touchdowns in the f i r s t quarter, one each in the second and third "and topped it off. with a pair in the final 12 minutes.

n ' WAVERLY'S safety came with " Just bver^ three minutes gone in the game. St. Johns. forced Waver ly to punt, and'Steve Thrall's booming kick bounced right and was downed within inches of the goal. Chuck Romig' was caught in the end zone by a swarm of Waverly linemen on the first play, and St. Johns was. behind.

The deficit didn't last too much longer. St.. Johns intercepted a partially blocked pass but after making one first down punted to Waverly. Wayerly got one firsY down, tooj but when Thrall tried to punt again, St.( Johns end

J Jon Berkhousen blocked it on the 15 yard line and Jeff Silm picked i | up and lugged it In for a touchdown. He then added the extra point with.a kick.

That was with 1:41 left in the first q u a r t e r . „The Redwings quickly forced Waverly to punt again, and. then fullback Mike

' . Green shot through a big hole opened in the Waverly line at the St. Johns 41 and was gone—59 yards for a touchdown. Silm added the PAT and it was 14-2 when the q u a r t e r ended 11seconds later. ; After ano the r exchange of _

. gunts, St.- Johris' deep safety w *'Terry,Maier picked/off ,a:Mark \ Tomlinson pass and returned It \ 26 yards to the Waverly 26 to set up another TD. It took 10 plays, but q u a r t e r b a c k Tim Durner finally packed it in for the touch­down from about a foot outside the goal. Silm's^kick made it 21-2, ]and that's how the "half ended just over 2 minutes later.

WAVERLY CAME to life in the second .half, but St. Johns was still not to be outdone* The Redwings did the first scoring, using up. fiye minutes in 'going 68 yards for a touchdown. Half­back Chuck Green had the big

,Play, a beautiful 42-yard change -of-pace sweep around left end to the Waverly 9. Brother Mike Green put on the final touch with ' a run around right end for the touchdown, sprung by a crisp block from Mike.i-Silm's kick missed, and the score was 27-2.

But Wave'r ly 's offense was anxious, and they chewed outfour • first downs enroute to their first touchdown of the night with .'40 seconds left .in the third quarter. Fullback Mike Yatchak got the,. TD from five yards out and then;' ran'for the extra point. When' the quarter ended the score was

,£7-9. "

St. Johns was not done yet. Chuck Green circled left end for 38 yards on an identical play to his first-half run, getting the . ball down to the Wayerly 37. Mike Green'and, Chuck Romig worked it to the 32, and then Durner

. hit end Dave Gaffney with a pass thai Gaffney ran In for a touch­down from 17 yards out, Silm popped the ball between the uh-' rights for the extra point.

But after St' Johns punted/-the ball back, Waverly moved again with a 23-yard pass, ah 18-yard run to the 10 and three smashes into the line.

- ST. JOHNS WANTED the las/ word and they did. On the first play after taking the klckoff, half­back Scott Bennett switched to. quarterback, went to the right on a rollout and passed to Jeff Silm, who legged it -the last 35; yards to complete, a ,62-yaroV

scoring play. Silm kicked the extra, point to end the scoring 'with; 34 seconds left. , • ,

The Redwings' ground game was solid, and q u a r t e r b a c k Durner engineered the ball ef­fectively oh the ground most of the way. Be tween him and Benne t t , they threw only five times, completing two passes for 96 yards and two touchdowns. ^ St. Johns intercepted three of Tpmllnson's passes as Waverly

was able ,to complete only three of 10 aerials for 33 yards.

The Wings' front ^1 i n.e drew praise from Coach Jeff Smith for its part in paving the way for St. Johns' 241 y a r d s in rushing and for its defensive play. As a result, Waverly had only, one advantage over St. Johns all night—they had no penalty yardage walked off.against them,, whi le "the Redwings drew 30 yards!

Mrs Theodore Townsend, who will be 91 this'Oct. 10, has been a crossword puzzle enthusiast for many years. She has recently found. a new challenge to her ability in Margjaret Farrerofthe New York Times, of whom she says, "Her ptizzles are impos­sible to complete, but I try any­way,"

1 by Dana Antes • •', Many garments made of wool, and wollen household articles such as blankets, have been treated to make them resist­ant to moths. The best moth repellents used today are mineral salts and organic compounds that are put into the yarn dyes.. These are known as dye-intermediates, and because they permeate to the very heart of the fibers they produce a relatively.last-ing moth-proof effect. Other moth-proofing agents com­monly in use to discourage the hatching of moth larvae for a limited length of time are often removed by dry clean-_ ing. One of the surest, safestways to repel moths Is to have gar­ments, blankets and all woolen articles cleaned thoroughly and frequently. Don't give moths half a chance. Make it a point always to have blankets and clothing cleaned before putting them away for the sea­son. Aside from the moth hazard, soil that is allowed to remain in fabric' for any length of time has a tendency to pene­trate the fibers and deteri­orate them. If the wollen things you're b r ing ing out now weren't cleaned in the spring, better send them to us how. We'll put them in perfect shape for the fall and winter seasons,., and remember, reweaving or replacement i s a lot more costly than cleaning, don't gamble with mothsj

Mrs Marldell Nelson,' presi­dent of the Perrin-Palmer Com­munity Club this year, says the big project of the group will be to encourage a closer family, school and teacher relationship.

This will involve the encour­agement" of parents to have a deeper and closer contact with what their children are doing at school and in their free time after school.

Mrs Nelson feels there would be less trouble with teenagers if parents took' a more active interest in their children at the grade school level..

To achieve this, the club will hold its first meeting Oct, 15. It will be a parent-teacher coffee hour at Perrin-Palmer, with open discussions of parent-stu­dent interests.

They are also p lann ing a Christmas program, with a get-acquainted mixer, and a new idea for this year will be a sixth grade memorial project.

There are 271 students en­rolled this year at P e r r i n V Palmer and all parents are mem­bers of the club. 1 Along with Mrs Nelson

as president, members have elected Mrs Betty Sanford as vice president, Mrs Marilyn Wood as secretary, and Mrs Connie Kinney as treasurer,.

Beginning in January, an older person who goes to the hospital under medicare will be respons­ible for the first $44 of his hospital bill, Roger W. Seamon social security district manager, said. The $4 increase from the present $40 deductible results from a provision in the law re­quiring an annual review of the deductible amount. The first such review the law provided was to be made in 1968.

The law specifies that if this annual review shows that hospl-'tal costs have changed signifi­cantly, the hospital deductible amount must be adjusted for the following year. Necessary in­creases in the deductible amount are to be made in $4 steps to avoid small annual changes.

Following the formula in the law, and figuring the ratio of in-patient hospital costs under, medicare in X966 with those in 1967, the deductible amount for 1969 worked out to $44.

The results of the annual re­view of the in-patient hospital deductible also apply to the dollar amounts a medicare beneficiary pays toward a hospital stay of more than 60 daysr

Thursday when the ladies toured both newspaper plants.

&r' The tour followed the proces­sing of news and advertising copy at the County News during the morning hours and after lunch resumed at Greenville, where the final printing stages of the paper are carried out.

The tour was designed to bet­ter acquaint the Extension study group officers with the workings and problems of newspapers.

Making the tour were Mrs Wayne Peck, Mrs Carl Light, Mrs Jeter Keener, Mrs Bruce Mehney, Mrs Lloyd Ford, Mrs Lloyd Harris, Mrs Dennis Kent-field and Mrs Jack Hudson.

They were accompanied by Mrs Helen Meach, Extension, home economist.

Clinton County was paid $814,555 during the 1967-68 fis­cal year, compared to $749,627 in the previous year. Here's how area cities and villages com­pared:

Ashley $8,444 in 1967-68, up from $7,831 the year before; Carson City $17,776, up from $16,348; DeWitt $17,306, upfrom $15,862; Eagle $2,481, up from $2,293; East Lansing $311,072, up from $283,582; Elsie $12,960, up from $11,764;

Payments in the 1968-69 year will likely also increase because of another revenue-producing part of the "good roads" tax package enacted by the Legisla­ture last year. That will be the restoration of moto r vehicle weight taxes to the pre-depres-sion level; the increase takes effect Oct. 1 and Nov. 15 when new commercial and passenger car plates are placed on sale.

Power train improvements deliver greater economy and performance in many of the X969 Oldsmobile F-85's including the Cutlass Supreme (above). These gains arc accomplished, in part, by com­bining an all-new 3-speed automatic transmission

with a lower 2,56-to-l axle ratio. The new auto-' matic transmission closely resembles the Turbo Hydra-Matic available in full-size Oldsmobiles but is smaller and lighter.

moves 12 pounds of water. Nearly 25,000 BTU of heat are required to remove this much water,

"A farmer with a 30,000-bushel crop must dry 2,000 bushels a day,* says McQueen. "The burner for drying that much grain is 20 to 30 times that required to heat a Michigan home on a se­verely cold day."

The minimum equipment needed for batch-in-bin drying of 2,000 bushels a day would be a unit 36 feet in diameter or two units 24 feet in diameter. While two smaller units would be more expensive, Michigan State Uni­versity r e s e a r c h shows they would be more efficient.

"An automated batch drying unit would be good for this size operation," says McQueen. *A unit should be selected that would remove 10 points of moisture from 200 bushels of grain an hour.*

According to Robert Maddex, MSU agricultural eng inee r , a continuous flow dryer would usually provide the most flex­ibility. It should be large enough to remove 15 points of moisture from 150 bushels of grain an hour.*

Investment costs for the dif­ferent types of equipment would be reasonably close. "The total investment begins to even out when you buy enough equipment to dry this much corn," Maddex concludes.

Urea feeding doesn't affect reproduction Research indicates that feed­

ing urea to dairy cattle has no effect on the animal's reproduc­tion, contends a Michigan State University dairy scientist.

"While none of the studies over the past 25 years could be termed 'completely conclusive,'theyare unanimous in r e p o r t i n g *no harmful effects' on reproduction from feeding r e c o m m e n d e d amounts of urea,* states Louis J. Boyd.

C u r r e n t l y , MSU specialists recommend mixing 10 pounds of urea to each ton of silage at filling time as an inexpensive source of protein for dairy cattle feeds.

The feeding of " e x c e s s i v e amounts* of urea can have some sudden and rather pronounced effects on the dairy cow, com­ments Boyd. Ammonia can enter the b l o o d s t r e a m and cause poisoning.

"These harmful effects will not occur when urea is fed at recom­mended levels,* says Boyd. "So, if the use of urea is an economi­cal feeding practice for the dairyman, I see no reason why he should shy away from It.* a.m. starting on Saturday, Oct. 12.

Corn drying field day on Oct 10

By GEORGE MCQUEEN Extension Agricultural Agent

Most Clinton County farmers ,have corn drying ,and storage facilities. True, it may only be the old familiar slatted crib for ear corn. They worked fine when labor was plentiful and total pro­duction of thousands of bushels-by individual farmers changed that. Corn drying and storage units now are designed to re­duce labor but allow harvesting at a rapid rate.

Next Thursday, Oct. 10, area farmers will have a chance to visit four grain drying and storage faculties.

F i r s t on the tour at 10 a.m. will be low-cost ear corn drying and storage on the Leonard Puetzfarm. While very useful and efficient, there are certain limitations in this method.

The next two stops are at the Albert Schaeferfarm andGeisen-haver Brother's farm. Both have batch dryers using forced, heated air. Neither set-up uses much physical labor and both can handle a relatively large number of bushels in a short time. Maybe some of their ideas will work for you.

The fourth stop will be at Zeeb's Dairy farm. Here a batch dryer has been recently modified into the dryeratlon concept. Dry-eration has Improved grain quality by reducing stress cracks and kernel breakage by 50 per cent. Drying capacity is expected to increase by 60-100 per cent. It's also more efficient even though equipment c o s t s are higher.

Join us for the corn drying tour on Thursday, Oct. 10. Just one good idea gained may well justify your time and here's a chance to get many Ideas useful to you.

Early harvest with properly adjusted picker cuts corn losses

Early harvesting with a prop­erly adjusted picker can drasti­cally cut corn loses in the field.

More than one and a half mil­lion acres of corn are scheduled for harvest in Michigan alone this year. During the next few weeks, 33,500 pickers, combines equipped with corn heads and picker-shellers will be starting the corn harvest.

"Farmers should harvest as rapidly as possible once corn is ready," says Bob White, agricul­tural engineer at Michigan State University. He points out that ear and shelling losses increase only gradually through October, but jump rapidly during Novem­ber. Research has shown that farmers can expect field losses to average about three bushels per week after the middle of October.

•Farmers who are still pick-

ASC PROGRAM

ing corn at Thanksgiving can ex­pect to leave about 15 per cent of their crop in the field, White estimates. The whole picking job should be done by the end of October as the weather is usually good and the crop handles better at this time.

IMPROPER PICKER adjust­ment g r e a t l y adds to corn losses—even when picking condi­tions are ideal. And s h e l l i n g losses become more of a prob­lem as the season progresses.

Two major sources of trouble on a picker are the snapping rolls and the husktng bed. •Ex­cessive shelling at the snapping rolls is generally caused by the rolls being too far apart," says White. They should be set as close as possible without causing "plugging"—which sets the scene for many accidents.

"Plugging can also be caused

by fast ground speeds," White adds. The farmer may need to change the •aggressiveness" of the snapping rolls by adding lugs or welded beads to the rolls, he points out. Snapping roll speed can also be adjusted on some types of pickers.

In heavy corn, field losses can be reduced and plugging mini­mized when the ground speed of the picker is held near two miles per hour. •

Husking bed problems are usually caused by wrong adjust­ment of the ear retarders or overloading. The picker should be set so that ears are fed uniformly Into the husking bed. Excessive husks or trash found in the husking bed usually mean that the snapping rolls need ad­justing. ,

Hart is reelected to ASC committee

Recently elected ASC com­munity committeemen met at Smith Hall Sept. 26 and re­elected Laurence Hart of Bath Township to the ASC County Committee. Also elected was Neil Barnhart of Bingham Town­ship, first alternate, and Victor Clark of Eagle Township, second alternate.

Hart has just completed a three-year term as county com­mitteeman; he has been a com­munity or county committeeman for several years. County com­mitteemen are elected for three year terms, and the terms are staggered so one member of the three man committee is elected each year.

This coming year Hart will serve as committee chairman, Leon Schumaker of Riley Town­ship will serve as vice chairman, and Verne Upton of EssexTown-ship as third member on the com-4

Farmers planning on planting corn in 1969 can get a jump on quackgrass by treating fields this fall, says George McQueen, Clinton County Extension agri­cultural agent.

Atrazine can be applied before plowing at two to four pounds of active ingredient per acre any time from September to freeze-up. If the two-pound rate is used, an additional two pounds of atra­zine per acre should be added in corn in the spring.

Plowing in the fall is not necessary, but control is in­creased by fall plowing or digging with a field cultivator just prior to freezing. In those fields where the total amount of atrazine ap­plied is greater than two pounds per acre, corn must be grown for two years, McQueen says.

Amitrole-T applied to actively growing quackgrass seven to 10 days before fall plowing at the rate of two pounds per acre also has proven effective, especially when atrazine is then applied at two pounds per acre in the corn the following spring. If freezing weather or "winteringin" occurs seven to 10 days after application of amitrole-T, fall plowing is not necessary. Amitrole-T ap­plied in the spring on fall plowed land is not effective.

Generally, amitrole-T is most effective when applied in the spring when quackgrass is four

to eight inches tall. The area is then plowed seven to 10 days later. However, says McQueen, this procedure can delay corn planting. Again atrazine at two. pounds per acre should be used in the corn.

THE ASC COUNTY and com­munity committees are in charge of local administration of such national farm programs as the agricultural conservation pro­gram, the cropland adjustment program, feed grain and wheat programs, the National Wool Act, sugar program, commodity price-support loans, and storage facility loans.

The Clinton County ASCS of­fice is located at 100 S. Ottawa Street in St. Johns, and is open from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, including the noon hour.

The county committee urges farmers in our county to call at the ASCS office and get informa­tion about the farm programs that they administer in our county. At the present time there is a lot of a c t i v i t y in the commodity price-support loan program and the farm storage and drying equipment loan program.

This year the requests for cost-share assistance to estab­lish conservation on farm land has exceeded the funds allocated to our county. A number of re­quests have had to be disapproved due to the lack of funds. The county committee urges anyone who lias been approved for as­sistance but who will not carry out the conservation practice to

' W. M. SMITH County ASC Manager

contact our office and cancel their requests so the funds can be used by someone else needing assistance.

This is the first time in quite a few years that all funds have been allocated. There has been an increase In the number of re­quests for tile drainage this year due to the weather.

I want to remind producers with farm-stored commodities to check them for weevil. The weevil is damaging a lot of grain this fall.

Schwark 12 in tractor contest OVID—David Schwark of rural

Ovid was one of 22 finalists competing for the eastern United States 4-H tractor championship Sept. 24 during the Virginia State Fair in Richmond, Va,

David, 16 and son of Mr and Mrs Jack Schwark of 9647 E. Colony Road, finished 12th inthe standings with a score of 846 points. The winner, Robert L. Schickel of Indiana, scored a low 327 points,

Dave represented Michigan in the 18th annual eastern U.S. 4-H tractor operator's contest. He and the 21 o t h e r contestants, ranging in age from 15-19, earned the right to compete by winning a series of county, dis­trict and state eliminations in their home states.

The Michigan 4-H'er demon­strated his knowledge of safety and vehicle operation by driving a tractor with a two-wheeled trailer and then a four-wheeled wagon through an obstacle course. The competition also included a written examination and practi­cal test in which each participant spots malfunctions in a tractor purposely a r r a n g e d by the judges.

SCHWARK ARRIVED in Rich­mond as a guest of the American Oil Foundation, sponsor of trac­tor programs in 40 states. During the week he participated in a series of tours and social events connected with the contest.

Hosts for the events, in addi­tion to the American Oil Founda­tion, were Standard Oil Co. (Kentucky), Standard Oil Co. (Ohio), the U.S. Agricultural Ex­tension Service, the Virginia Farm Equipment Assn., and the State Fair of Virginia.

County F B annual meeting Oct. 8 In a special message to all

Farm Bureau members placed in the mjiil this week, President Lee Ormston reminded them-of the importance in taking an active

part in Farm Bureau's Annual, policy making session. His mes­sage was a part of the official notice of the meeting which must

This year m a r k_ s the 49th meeting of: the" Clinton County * Farm Bureau and members will

\t

attend to the organization's bus­iness meeting following a meal served by The Farm Bureau Women's Committee at 7:30p.m. < Oct. 8 at Smith Hall in St. Johns. •

Rev Harold Homer will offer' the invocation as the anticipated crowd of over 300 nersons meet to discuss and act on a fall slate of resolutions on. local, state and national Issues. They'll also elect directors for ^ three district and one at-large member to the county board. Delegates to

Graduated income tax ' on ballot

One of the five, proposals on the ballot in the general election Nov. 5 will, permit the voters to decide' whether Michigan's Constitution should be changed to permit a graduated income tax. Michigan's .present Constitution provides for a flat rate income tax and prohibits a graduated tax.

Michigan's income tax of 2.6 per cent of individuals and 5.6 per cent on corporations is aflat rate tax. However, in reality, it is highly graduated. A truly fiat rate income tax would re­sult if there were no exemptions' whatever. As exemptions ar'e made such a tax becomes grad­uated In effect.

Michigan's income tax on in­dividuals allows an exemption of $1,200 per p e r s o n , which is double the exemption permitted in the federal Income tax. In addition to this exemption, there are property tax credits involved, and also tax credits lend a grad­uation effect to the income tax.

On the other hand, most states

the state annual meeting will be elected. The county is entitled to representation by ll'persons at

the state meeting in November, and five will be named from the membership at large.

The day little Jimmie admired my muscles I was the strongest man in the whole world. And so I remained until the next morning when I got into an argu­ment with that big kid in the next block. Then a humiliating retreat seemed preferable to a bloody nose.

Life hasn't changed much since -I've grown up. Sometimes on Sunday I am so confident of my human might that I glibly pass up the spiritual resources my 'neighbors are finding in church. And by Monday I'm wondering where to turn ior help in some insurmountable difficulty.

Experience is forever teaching me that my own self-confidence is mostly self-delusion. The men I admire seem absolutely honest about their own limitations, and absolutely certain about God's strength.

One Sunday as I sat in a pew and watched others receiving Communion this thought struck me: Among those who kneel reverently before an altar today is undoubtedly the world's strongest man.

I THINK ON THESE THINGS

ft>

K

A devotional message written each week by a pastor of a Clinton County church •

5ftWM,K*M|K,W,*,*,K SSS:S::ft¥ft:^:flfft%:

This week as we "think on thesethingswhich are true," in follow up to the truth about God, we must next consider the truth about Jesus Christ. Who is He? A man? A God? He came from the bosom Of the Father to the bosom of a woman. He put on humanity that we might put on divinity. He became the Son of man that we might become sons of God. He came from heaven, Where cold winds never blow, frosts never chill • the air, and flowers never fade; where no one is every sick; where there are no undertakers and no graveyards, for no one ever dies, and no one is ever buried. He was born contrary to the laws of' nature. He lived in poverty and was reared in obscurity. Only once did He cross the boundary of His homeland,, and that in His childhood. He had no formal education. He had no wealth, nor influence; His relatives were inconspicuous and unlnfluential. In infancy He startled a King; in boyhood He puzzled the doctors; in manhood-He ruled the course of nature. He walked upon the billows, and hushed the sea to sleep. He never wrote a book, yet all the libraries cannot hold the books that have been written about Him. He never wrote a song, yet. He has been the theme of more songs than all other subjects combined. He never founded a college, yet all the schools together can't boast of as many students, as those who study His life. He never practiced medicine, yet he healed more • broken bodies and broken hearts than all the doctors that ever lived. Great men .have come and gone but He lives on. Herod could not kill Him;' Satan could- not seduce Him; Death could not hold and destroy Him; the grave could not keep Him. He was rich yet for our sakes He became poor. He was born in a borrowed barn, and buried in a borrowed tomb. He rode another man's ass, fished from another man's boat. He had no place to lay His head. Between Him and everyother person in theworld there is-no possible term of comparisonv-AIexander;--Caesar, Charlemagne, and Napoleon have founded empires. But on what—upon force! Jesus Christ founded his empire upon love; "and at ihis very minute millions of men would die for Him. If Christ is-the wisdom of God and the power of God in the experience of those who trust and love Him, there needs no further argument of His Divinityll.May we all think on these things.

Advert i s ing . . . makes wheels go'round! Every day, in great cities and small villages, house­

wives make out their daily shopping lists from ads in their home-town newspapers.

No hoopla, no ballyhoo. The kids have gone to school, the father to work. The mother of the family — the one responsible for spending most of the family's money — sits down at her kitchen table and carefully decides where she can get the best buys. The infor­mation is, all there, in the newspaper. The bargain prices, the descriptions, stay there while she makes up her mind, at leisure. Perhaps she will even fold the ad and put it in her purse, if there is any question in her^mind about the price or the product.

Advertising is a service which people want. After the New York newspaper strike of 1957, women inter-y

viewed in one study said they missed ads most of all features in the newspaper.

Advertising makes the wheels go 'round in our economy. Following the Minneapolis newspaper strike' in 1962, economists of the Federal Reserve Bank's Ninth District estimated that the area had lost $58,000,000 in sales.

Advertising makes newspaper wheels go 'round, too. Before the advent of mass advertising, news­papers—always very expensive to produce — had to. depend on political parties for support. It has been advertising, honest advertising furnishing a needed service to millions of consumers, that has strengthened the economic base of the American press.

That's somtthing for you to think about during National Nawipapar W « k Oct. 6-12, 1968.

True sportsmen up in arms over coho 'sportsmen' 1 i

38

By JACK W. CORBIN Publisher

• Hart (Mich.) Journal

We have spent the past sev­eral days reading newspaper articles, hearing television' re­port^, and listening to some people, all in Regard to the re-i cent controversy between the, .Cpnservation Department and, .some ' so-called "sportsmen" re­garding the coho situation on the (Bear Creek and Platte River.

While we like to fish and prob­ably (at least according to our wife) have spent as much time at the sport in our life as' any­one, it seems to us that some­where along the line some wires have gotten crossed. " These "sportsmen" are com­

plaining because they are not being allowed to "lish'" in the Bear Creek where the coho are jammed into a stream not as large in places as our local North' Branch of the Pentwater. The type of "fishing" that is in question has consisted of snag­ging, Jietting, and generally everything but actually fishing,

They ' are complaining because the Conservation Department -Will not aljow them to buy fish at the site of the weirs where the fish are being taken, for the eggs needed to keep the salmon pro­gram going. ' If all these men, and women,

'want Is fish, we understand they (are available in supermarkets and restaurants around the state. [The fact that they' have paid '$3.00 for a fishing license and ian extra buck or so for a trout stamp does not mean that, they 'have a guarantee from anyone .(that they can go home with some ifish just because they put in an ^appearance on a stream where :the fish were o n a spawning run.

A deer license, either for rifle or bow and arrow, does not mean that the holder should be allow­

e d - t o . take a deer by any means |he sees fit. And it certainly is •npt a guarantee that he will have Venison' in. .the freezer just be­cause he purchased a license as we can well attest over the past thirty years. And the same line of reasoning can he applied to a small game license, a duck

stamp, a driving license, etc. Tt lo a, sail situation, when, a

fimlfifd number'of'""sportsmen" can 'louse up a' program' such as the Conservation Department has had in .operation for the, salmon introduction in Michigan.' We will be the first to admit that' the , Conservation Depart­ment is certainly not infallible; but we do feel that, given a fair chance, they will do even a bet­ter jpb in the future' than they have so far done in our salmon 'fishing experiment.

We talked' just today with Mid "LittieBrant, Jr.,' who has been working on a charter boat out of Frankfdrt, fishing in the'Platte Bay area, and' were' told that the boat' came in with 16 fish Tues­day* and 10 i on Monday. How­ever,'it was also stated that the fish were caught in water about' 180-90 feet deep, and caught le-' jgally on rods. In addition to! ,'those caught, there were several :lost and the fishermen involved! •had_ a picnic landing these fish.; They were not snagged, clubbed:

or netted in a shoulder-to-should-. ed madhouse on a .stream that

Bear Creek, Platte situations rile West Michigan publisher could be jumped across in about three good jumps.

We have heard the complaint that if a fisherman has his license, a brand new pole, some lures, has spent money arid time,; taken some of his vacation, ap­peased his wife, etc.-, in order to go coho fishing that he is enf titled to take home some fish. Is this a sportsman? We do, hot think so. We have done the same thing for years and many are, the times we have come home with less than enough fish to even stink up the frying pan. And we have not brought home; a lot of deer also. •* j - The thing that seems to be ir-' rltating also is that the "sports-! men", can see the big coho jump*-; ing and "swarming in the .rivers and in many cases in Lake Mich­igan and yet; they will not strike and cannot be caught legally. If the "sportsmen" could see all the trout on his favorite stream

or the bass and pike In any lake that are there and are not strik­ing he might be equally frus­trated. Or if he could know about "all the deer, that slither by him •while he is sitting on his favor­ite stump he might' have a dif­ferent outlook on these sports also. • We do not; at ' this time, offer any foolproof solution' to this problem,) We do feel, however, that while the Conservation De­partment is not entirely perfect in all their regulations, we think that it is a sad state of affairs "when a minority of "sportsmen" make it necessary to limit the activities of so many "others* We have not mentioned a t ' all the problems caused by the litter, disrespect for the rights and property of others, the ruination of the stream, and actually,'the jam-up of "fishermen" packed ,so tightly In the jstream that the fish actually can not even get past on their journey up stream.

The Department has kept the salmon program, for the fisher­men'as much" as has been pos- sible. They have not allowed.any commercial fishing in Lake Michigan. The hook and line fishermen have* them all- to1

themselves. And this still applies' right up to'.the time the fish reach the weirs on the spawning streams. The fishermen have had since about June, and even earlier further south, to get in their licks' at the coho. During all this time there has been no competition from commercial fishermen. Granted, the summer fishing for coh& has necessitated either a boat or a charter trip, but the fishermen have had their turn, and there can be no argu­ment about this.

But now that the Department wants to'and has to trap some'oT these fish in order'to perpetuate the program, and the same fish

are visible in the streams, the "sportsmen" are up in arms,

Following this line of reason­ing by the "sportsmen", perhaps the Department should open'the

;deer season during the mid-win­ter months while the deer are yarded Up in droves in'relative­ly small areas so that the hunter who has spent his five bucks for a deer license can be guaranteed of killing a deer.

The whole mess stinks as far as we are concerned, and it is the "sportsmen" who have stunk it up.

We will close with the thought that as far as we are concerned, the catching of fish and ''the shooting of game, should depend entirely on the skill or "luck" of the hunter and fisherman, and not be a (guarantee that comes with the purchase of a license to pursue the sport.

Fire prevention Last year in the United States, 12,200

persons lost their lives in fires. Thousands more were injured. Property damage r e ­sulting from fire reached a staggering $1.7 billion. With care , a huge portion of this shameful waste-could have been avoided.

During the week of Oct. 6 to 12, all of us will be asked to redouble our efforts to cut down on this enormous toll of life, limb and property; to check our homes and places of business against hazards which might at some unexpected moment burn us out and threaten our very persons; to remind our­selves that fires can indeed be avoided through the exercise of care. rf-

. As T. Lawrence Jones, president of the American Insurance Assn., reminds us, Fire Prevention Week is "not just another crusade to be taken lightly. * It was con­ceived, and is repeated at this time every year, as a deadly serious reminder to all Americans that fire prevention is a relatively simple task, but one which must be kept in mind at all time."

How simple it i s , for example, to put that cigarette—or match—out before dis­carding it, rather than tossing it care­lessly away, perhaps to kindle a f i r e with consequences you will never forget.

How simple to clean out that kitchen stove, rather than taking the risk of a badly charred room or gutted home which can be the result of an accumulation of grease.

Fire Prevention Week is a time to think , of these things; to throw out old news­papers and other unneeded collections of combustible materials; to check—or have a serviceman check—electrical applicances and wiring and heating equipment. It is a time to pledge ourselves to making fire prevention a year-round job.

That is the message Fire Prevention Week seeks to convey.

Nobody's business According to the Constitution, a census

is supposed to be taken every 10 years . The original idea was to find out how many people lived in the United States. There was no intention to probe into their private affairs. Now the Census Bureau is going far beyond this and wants the answers, to such questions as: whether you have a home freezer, if you have been married before, how many people use your bathroom or kitchen and many other things that are really nobody's business. , •

The next census is due in 1970. Legis­lation that deserves unanimous support has been introduced to prohibit the federal government from using ,this occasion as a means of invading the privacy of American citizens. After all, the purpose of the census is to count people—not the number of gold fillings in their teeth.

The game was over but Eddie was still staring intently onto the field, mumbling to himself. '

•What are you" doing?* I asked. "I am counting butt pats for mother," he said. I took 10-year-old Eddie to Detroit to see the Tigers play

Baltimore. My dad used to take me to ballgames and I thought he was quite a guy even If he never would buy me a 75-cent Tiger shirt for $1.75. I started dragging Eddie to games two years ago when he hardly knew a baseball from a dumpling. I was determined that he would think I also was quite a guy, right off an old Saturday Evening Post cover by Norman Rock­well (back when poor people were allowed to read the Post). But the only impression Eddie got from those first few games was that Dad "sure hollers a lot at ballgames." He was also embarrassed when the Tigers lost and I cried. The only thing he was interested in was the TV camera. Everytlme it swung his way he did his impression of Ed Sullivan and took 3 quick bows.

But the Tigers, finally snarling, made a real fan of Eddie this year. He has, in fact, become one of those all-out nuts who can tell you whatNorm Cash eats for breakfast the morning alte,r he has-struck out three timej3.-\^tfhqmepin,fronto?the_.'jn.t radio or TV,^he f keeps a runnings b0xu.scor.4nof ev^itytgameinv*" When the Tigers "wnT,, he bores the famUy siil'y by orating loudly. ., on how they did it , ' frequently consulting his written record to keep the facts straight. When they lose, Eddie flushes that lousy box score down the toilet and forgets It. In fact, if the Tigers are more than three runs behind by the 5th inning he rips up his record and goes outside and throws a ball against the side of the house, bang, bang, BANG. This is a real fair weather kid.

Eddie arrived for the Baltimore game well prepared. He was wearing his Al Kaline glove and his Tiger cap and he carried a well-sharpened Tiger pencil. His mother gave him the pencil so he wouldn't have to buy another one at the stadium. She had saved it from a game she saw a while back (Ty Cobb stole three bases).

"Mom saved us 10 cents," Eddie explained as he bulldozed me into buying him one of those shirts my dad would never buy me.

But there was a problem. How was he going to keep accurate 'score with his cheap pencil and still catch foul balls with his Al Kaline mitt?

"You keep score," he told me, handing over the scorebook and pencil. I wrote-in each player's name and was half-way through the-first inning before Eddie checked to see if I was doing it correptly. He snatched the book out of my lap.

"Nobody can read your writing," he said. And he erased everything I'd written and started all over again. Boy, fifth graders print as_lf they were engraving tombstones. Each letter Is straight and sturdy enough to trip over. You can read them from across the room. If I wrote like that, no one would know I was a big business executive.

All of which was embarrassing enough but the kicker was that I had to wear Eddie's mitt and watch out for foul balls. We sat in the left field corner and everytlme a right handed slugger was batting Eddie would caution me to be ready "because this guy pulls a lot of 'em foul." Whenever a ball came within a 'mile my nerves jumped and I fell out of my seat. You can imagine how I felt. If a ball ever came to me and 1 blew it—with a mitt on yetl—that little kid would go back to the hospital and ask for another day.

Fortunately, no ball came that close. I escaped Eddie's scorn. And nuts to all those Tiger fans who kept giving me strange looks. Didn't theyfefver seeMVfat* left-fielder before?

The Tigers won'with Dermy ^cLain getting number 27. It was after McLain's last pitch that I discovered Eddie keeping a new kind of score. You probably noticed that athletes often congratulate a fellow athlete by swatting him In the seat of the pants. This is the type of thing my wife notices, anyway. She had told -Eddie that, if McLaln won, he would probably get 15 butt pats before he reached the dugout.

"1 counted 17," Eddie reported. * I wonder If that's a record?—

WATTERVILLE, Minn., ADVANCE: -The rise in crime can be stopped only by Justice which deals swiftly and surely; convincing Justice which means quick arrest, prompt prosecution and substantial punishment equal to the crime . . . Each generation has the duty, not to help himself to whatever he can get, but to extend the freedoms of the Bill of Rights so that they may continue

•as the core of our American heritage."

RAMBLIN' WITH RINK

Picture the photographer By LOWELL G. RINKER

BEST WAY TO SEE IT LIKE IT IS!

Being a news photographer is not the glamorous Job that a lot of people think it is or what I used to think it was before I got actively involved in it. It is most often tedious, It many times Is sleep-reducing, it too often is gory and very seldom is It really fun.

The overall effect, however, is quite the opposite of what the sum total might appear to make it. It is an Intriguing job and a satisfying one.

My job as news photographer Is different from that of a lot of 'other fellows who do nothing but take and develop their pic­tures. News photography is only a part of the job of an editor of a, weekly newspaper, but on a paper like ours that likes to use pictures It is a vital job.

ASIDE FROM THE technical problems of proper exposure, lighting, etc,, the news photo­grapher runs up against other obstacles. At a football game, for instance, he has to stand around with his flash unit all warmed up, hoping the action will come his way. If the whole game is played at mldfleld, the players^ are too far away to photograph.

What presents the greatest problem, however, is the rou­tine picture—the presentation of a check or. an award, a picture oi a group of ladies making plans for a style show or guys planning their annual

toothbrush sale. These are most difficult because we hate to take the same type of picture over and over and over and over, with only the faces changing.

There's always pressure to come up with some different way of telling the same thing

J so that when people see a pic­ture of a check presentation in the paper they know they haven't seen it before. This can be a real challenge, and It's hard to come up with something fresh when the same sort of situation appears so often.

Besides being a Jack-of-all-trades sort of guy, the weekly newspaper editor also has to be on duty 25 hours a day. If a photographer desires to learn of bad accidents and of bad fires at all times of the-day, he can expect to get calls once in a while in the middle of the night (physicians un­doubtedly know what I mean).

Getting up at 2:30 a.m. to drive eight or 10 miles to an auto a c c i d e n t Is not very glamorous, and" it 's even less glamorous when you get back home and find you can't get back to sleep.

' PHOTOGRAPHING AUTO ac­cidents is not an enjoyable job, but It's one that We do willingly because of its news value and more importantly because of its educational value. It has long been our feeling—and we're not alone among newspaper peo­ple—that accident pictures are

often a deterrent to more ac­cidents.

Unfo r tuna te ly , the ex­periences on Clinton County highways this year certainly hasn't borne out that theory. But I know I drive a little more slowly and m6re carefully after I've seen an accident and after I've seen my pictures. They scare the living daylights out of me at times.

Once in awhile I'll get to an accident scene before the am­bulance has had an opportunity to remore the Injured persons.. or those killed. Less frequently than that I'll decide to use one of those pictures—again for the hopefully 'deterrent va lue it might have. We don't do it because we want to gain more readers but because we hope to keep those we'do have—alive.

But the new's photographer can have fun on his job, too. There come times of the year when he gets a chance to drive aimlessly around the country­side looking for a good spring­time picture or a good harvest-time picture, He gets to take p i c t u r e s of happy people re­ceiving awards. And most im­portantly, he gets to meet people and know them.

News photography's not a bad job. There are unpleasant things about it, but so there are with any job. There's a challenge about it that makes it satis­fying.

MICHIGAN MIRROR

Jury duty more likely

A new system for selecting citizens for jury duty goes into effect next year. More people will be called to serve, but the length

' of service is cut from three months to a maximum of 30 days.

Prospective jurors are pres­ently selected by township super­visors and city aldermen from property tax roles. They serve for $15 per day. The selection method was designed when Mich­igan was primarily an agricul­tural state and is not conducive to present modes of l iv ing, charges Lee C. Dramis, a Lan­sing lawyer who played aleading role in rewriting the jury law.

Workingmen find it difficult to support their families on $15 a day, and many ask to be excused for economic reasons. Persons who do not own real estate are automatically eliminated. This

* excuses about 80 per cent of the men and 60 per cent of the women in urbanized counties^ Dramis said.

As a result, juries are now composed mainly of retiredper-sons, housewives and persons with little or no regular de­mands on their time.

THE NEW LAW specifies that voter registration lists be used instead of property tax roles. A special jury board, appointed by the governor, will make the selection r a t h e r than super­visors and aldermen. A special mathematical formula will in­sure names being picked at ran­dom. '

» Exemptions under the new law are few: physical or mental dis­ability, persons over 70, police officers and lawyers, c i t i z e n s who do not understand the Eng-' lish l anguage . The presiding judge may make other excep­

tions, but excusals are expected only rarely under the new sys­tem, Dramis contends.

New Jurors will be selectedby •the jury board in May of each year. If lawyers agree, six-member juries may be used for civil cases. In the past, 12-member juries were required for all circuit court cases. Six-member juries will be used for both civil and criminal cases in the new district courts which re­place the present justice court system Jan. 1.

A special provision in the new law makes an employer who fires a person because of his absence for jury duty guilty of a mis­demeanor.

THREE "VITAL" areas will receive concerted attention by the Michigan Congress of Parents and Teachers Assn. this year, according to the organization's president, A. B. Haist. The areas are sex education; crime pre­vention; and the relationships be­tween student, parent, teacher, school administrators and school board.

During a 1967 survey among Michigan families, these three subjects were rated "critical.* The organization hopes that each of the 2,000 local units will de­vote several meetings to the topics, and then build upon local interest with specific programs.

"If all the PTA units across the s t a t e will concentrate on these three major subjects, the PTA in Michigan can unite for effective study and positive ac­tion," Haist declared.

Many positive programs have been fostered in the past, but se ldom has the organization aimed strongly at specific sub­jects. To help its 360,000 mem-

Ode to October By W.E. DOBSON

October's magic once again Paints nature with new glow,

And carpets'all tne woods 'n delis, With cover soft as snow.

The summer with its torrid breath, Gives still a backward look,

And footballs fill the air again, While scholars "hit the book,*

The seeds we planted in the spring Are grown now and declare

Their place In Autumn harvest With its air conditioned air.

October bids us to take stock Of wintry days ahead,

Again to live, 'n love, 'n learn, 'Ere Autumn days are fled.

There are other days of glory, Other times we can revere,

But it's hard to beat October For a glorious time of year!

bers organize plans of action, the group sponsored nine "program planning clinics* during August. About 400 officers attended the sessions.

MOST PEOPLE seldom need the services of a notary public, but proper notarization of docu­ments can avoid serious com­plications when legal transac­tions are made. Buying and sell­ing agreements, t r a n s f e r of property, publication of legal notices, and many other affairs must have signatures notarized. The notary public's responsibi­lity is to verify the validity of the signature. Failure to do so may result in a costly court suit.

The importance of a notary public is in sharp contrast to the minimal requirements for the appointment. For many years now, applicants need only be 21 years of age, a resident of the county from which they apply, and be endorsed by a circuit judge, state senator or repre­sentative. A $2 filing fee is charged by the state, $1 by the county clerk, and $8 to $14 for bonding.

The governor makes the ap­pointment , and only his office can revoke a commission. There are currently about 100,000 no­taries public in Michigan. Com­plaints regarding improper no­tarization and overcharging of fees are frequent, according to the secretary of state's office which processes applications. Seldom are commissions can­celled.

Efforts to establish higher qualifications have'been unsuc­cessful. New legislation has been introduced, but it has not re­ceived serious attention from lawmakers.

The 'low Down" Fr«m th«

Congressional Record By Jo* Crump A A look into the past

Rep. Robert H. Michel Oil.) ". . . Last winter the country witnessed the outrages at Colum­bia and Northwestern Universi­ties, and during that period I raised the question here on the floor of the House as to whether or not other college administra­tors around the nat ion were prepared to resist this type of anarchy on the i r own cam­puses?. . .

"One of the most candid and straightforward statements of policy along this line was out­lined by the president of St. Louis U n i v e r s i t y , the Rev Pau l C. Reinert, S. J., in the summer issue of the St. Louis University magazine, and I in­clude his statement In the Rec-cord at this point. . . " (The condensed statement follows):

It would be foolhardy to ig­nore the incidents of student violence that have racked vari­ous campuses around the nation and abroad. . .

Thus, officials of St. Lou i s University have drawn up and made public a statement of poli­cy and procedure r e g a r d i n g demonstrations and sit-ins.

POLICY Each student or student group

has the right to express dis­agreement on a particular sub­ject or to submit proposals for consideration, p rov id ing this right is exercised in an orderly fashion.

However, the kind of conduct which restrains either the free­dom of expression or the free­dom of movement of others who may not agree or which is dis­ruptive of university operations in any was is simply unaccept­able in an intelligent communi­ty and a democratic society.

Proper and reasonable chan­nels of communication do exist within the university. Reason­able men and women will con­tinue to use such channels as they have in the past.

PROCEDURES 1. Any individual or any

group participating in such a disruptive demonstration or sit-in will be given five minutes to disperse.

2. If the r e p o n s e to the above statement of policy and

( the first procedure is negative, ' the following steps will be tak­

en: (A) The police of the City of

St. Louis will be called In. Any university person partic­

ipating in such a disruptive demonstration or sit-in will be charged, arrested and prosecut­

ed at minimum for disturbing the peace.

Any person from ouside the university who is participating in such a disruptive demon­stration or sit-inwillbe charged,' arrested and prosecuted at min­imum for trespassing on private property.

(B) Any university s tuden t who participates in such a dis­ruptive demonstration or sit-in is automatically suspended from the university. Each suspended student will appear before the University Committee on Stu­dent Discipline for final decision In his case.

It bears repeating that we are extremely pleased with the gen­eral attitude of our students, and we're not going to let the irra­tional actions of a small minor­ity in other institutions affect our attitude toward our students.

* * A GRASSROOTS COMMENT

The St. Louis University's pro­cedure is easily understood and reduces debate to a minimum.* Hillsdale (Mich.) College, among others, has a similar program.

Skit proves entertaining at Elsie Church

The Women's Society of Chris­tian Service opened its 1968-69 series of programs at the Elsie United Methodist Church recently with president, Mrs Gene Stouffer in charge. This year the theme "The Now Prophets*.

During the business session, there was a question raised as to rules concerning rental use of Fellowship Hall. These were set by the official church board and individual circles of the Women's Society.

A skit "Those Wonderful Years* was presented with Mrs Duane Green as narrator, Mrs

Gordon Showers as song leader with Mrs Stouffer at the piano, and Mrs Whitaker, Mrs Dunham, Mrs Ralph Stull and Sharon Dun­ham assisting as characters in the skit.

The skit depicted the changes that have taken place In the Methodis t , Evangelical and United Brethren Churches from 1752-1968.

It showed the development and growth of the churches. The usual differing of opinions were brought out. Such names as Cope, Wesley, A l b r i g h t and Asbury (the first bishop to be c o n s e c r a t e d in America) were mentioned and the roles they had in the organi­zation of the church.

Daniel Freeman in 1804 was the first Methodistpreacher,who came to Michigan. The historical background of these years was brought out and some of the many" songs written and sung during t h o s e significant years were mentioned, some of which the ladies sang. One was a solo by Sharon Dunham "Lorena*. There followed the years that women s t a r t e d having more rights,

leading to women church organl-ations being formed.

Significant, becuse it has been during our lifetime, was the year 1939 when the Methodist Epis­copal Church, the M.E. Church South and the Methodist Pro­testant churches merged. It was then, the WSCS was formed. All this c u l m i n a t e d another im­portant date, Tuesday, April 23, 1968 when the United Methodist Church came into being, a union of what had been five churches into one church, with a mem­bership of 11,000,000 members.' Mrs Charles Kridner was in charge of devotional service.

At the close of the program a social hour followed with Mrs Howard Peltier, Mrs G.W. Ben­nett and Mrs Ruby P a r k s in charge.

The Harvest Festival of the Women's Society of Christian Service, originally scheduled for Oct. 30, conflicted with the Ovid-E l s i e Band Smorgasbord, was changed to Nov. 13.

Thirty two Kappa Phi Sorority members from Central Michigan University recently held a three

day r e t r e a t at the Bannister United Methodist Church and par­

ticipated in the Sunday Morning service. Patricia Dunay of Ban­nister was a member of the group.

On Christian Education Day, church school teachers of the Elsie United Methodist Church were given special recognition for their efforts to this most important task. The first fall coffee hour was held following the service.
