DeWitt holdup suspects nabbed
DeWITT—Four men are being held by federal authorities on charges they robbed the Woodruff State Bank in DeWitt last Monday afternoon, Sept. 16.
Clinton County Prosecuting Atty. Roland Duguay announced their apprehension Friday. They were c a p t u r e d in Nashville, Tenn., by Nashville police and FBI agents.
The arrested men are John C. Green, 27, of Mason; Anthony Bailor, 26, of Warren, and Al Adams, 30, and Mel Adams, 29, both of Flint.
The men were armed when arrested at a tourist court on the outskirts of Nashville, but they offered no resistance. About §4,000 was confiscated. They are charged with s t e a l i n g some $9,500 from the Woodruff State Bank.
State warrants for the arrest of the men were authorized last Thursday by Duguay. Their identification resulted from joint investigation e f f o r t s by DeWitt Police Chief Charles Anderson, the FBI and Michigan State Police. Duguay said they were able to make identity through latent
fingerprints at the bank.
AFTER A NATIONWIDE alert, the FBI notified Chief Anderson Friday that the men were taken into custody In Tennessee that morning. They are charged with armed robbery on the state offense but will first have to stand trial on federal charges, since the bank's deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.
Bailor, Green and Al Adams are all charged with the armed
robbery while Mel Adams Is charged with aiding and abetting in the crime. He was with the other t h r e e when they were caught.
U.S. Commissioner A. B, Neil in Nashville set bond for Bailor, Green and Al Adams totaling $75,000, and at last word they were still being held in Nashville, Duguay said Tuesday it was not known yet whether they would be extradited to Michigan or whether they would even have to be

New garbage pickup
schedule announced New garbage pick-up days for
St. Johns will go into effect i soon under terms of a new contract with K e i t h Canfield of Owosso as ratified Monday night by the commission.
The new schedule calls for pick-up of garbage and rubbish on three consecutive days at the beginning of each week. Under the old schedule — which the commission insisted will be in effect yet this week—garbage and rubbish are collected on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thrusdays.
The new pickup schedule, when "It does go into effect, will be this way:
* Monday in the residential areas south of M-21 and east of Clinton Avenue.
* Tuesday in the area south of M-21 and west of Clinton Avenue,
* Wednesday In the area north Of M-21.
Garbage and trash is becoming too voluminous to handle in two days, Canfield told the commission recently.
"AMERICAN PEOPLE are quite a glass-and tin-can-minded p e o p l e today," Commissioner Gerald I r rer p h i l o s o p h i z e d . "We're going to need more land and equipment, too. People should be made aware of this."
In the event the new pick-up day for any area falls on a legal holiday, the garbage contractor will pick up trash a day later during the rest of the week. No collection will begin prior to 7 a.m. on any given day.
The new contract, negotiated during the past two weeks, grants Canfield an extra $300 a month over the terms of the old contract. Under the new pact, the city will pay $1,200 a month for the garbage and rubbish 'pickup
in the residential areas of the city. There will be no individual charge to residents.
Canfield, of 2121 W. Hibbard Road, Owosso, does business as the K & H Refuse Service. He has handled the city's garbage collection for the past two years and until the new contract was receiving $900 a month for the s e r v i c e . Commissioners expressed a great deal of satisfaction Monday night with the terms of the new agreement.
It was ratified unanimously, but subject to the posting of a performance bond In the amount of $5,000.
MOST SECTIONS of the new contract are identical to the old one. The whole contract was renegotiated by mutual consent.
Among its provisions are r e gulations for city residents. Containers used for garbage and rub-
Redwing Band swings gaily in MSU post-game show
The Redwing Marching Band from St. Johns High School had a new honor Saturday—they were the first high school band invited to put on a post-game program at Michigan State University.
And the band came through with flying colors after the Spartans had done the same in their 14-10 victory over Syracuse.
Saturday was Band Day at Michigan State and 36 bands with some 3,600 musicians put on a program, arranged by William Moffit, around a nationalistic theme. Music performed with the massed-band included "March America," "America the Beautiful," "Battle Hymn of the Republic," and " M i c h i g a n State Fight Song."
This was one of the first massed-band h a l f t i m e s to be televised nationally in its entirety. St. Johns band and individuals from the band were high
lighted many times on TV. Immediately f o l l o w i n g the
game, the St. Jphns Redwing Marching Band performed their
"-show. Audience response to the bands efforts was great. Many compliments were given to the band by complete strangers and several long-distance p h o n e calls praising the band were r e ceived.
Dr Harry Begian, director at MSU, and Moffit, marching band director, had high praise for the St. Johns outfit—a fine marching organization, great sound and an excellent style of marching and body carriage, they said,
Eric VanCamp, vocal director at St. Johns, was announcer for the show.
Directors Walter C o l e and Gordon Gillett later publicly congratulated the band for its "exciting andprecise»performance. "No director could have asked
more of a band than what they gave," Cole said. "All the hours of p r a c t i c e suddenly became worthwhile."
Cole also thanked band parents and others who gave the band a moral boost at Spartan Stadium.
Chaperones for the band Saturday i n c l u d e d Mr and Mrs George Hazle, Mr and Mrs Van McClintock, Mr and Mrs Albert LeFevere and Mrs Robert Cart-wright.
A sound motion picture of the bank's post-game show at MSU was made, and a public showing will be announced later.
The St. Johns band will hit the road again soon, traveling to Northwood Institute at Midland Oct. 12 where the band has r e ceived a special invitation to put on a show at Northwood's homecoming game.
bish and set out for pickup "shall be 20-gallon garbage cans or other substantial and sturdy containers," according to the contract. "No container when filled shall weigh more than 50 pounds. All garbage shall be wrapped as the city shall require."
The contract gives Canfield the right to utilize the St. Johns City landfill for rubbish and garbage picked up within the city, but for no other purposes. Any garbage or rubbish picked up outside the city limits cannot be dumped in the city landfill.
Apartment houses containing more than three apartments shall also be considered residential, according to the contract. Can-field does not by duty provide service to commercial or Industrial areas, although he is free to contract individually with industrial or commercial customers for garbage and rubbish pickup.
The contract forbids any haphazard change in the three-day pickup schedule. It can only be changed with permission of the City of St. Johns and only after the contractor has given notice of the change at least 30 days prior to the effective date of the c h a n g e by publication In the Clinton County News.
IN,A--RELAT£DUTEM from t h e i r meeting Moritlay night, commissibners'informed Robfert Young of the Young Dray Service that there has been no decision yet on Young's prior request for the use of the landfill on days when it isn't open to the public.
Mayor Charles Coletta did say the city was considering — and only considering at this point— the possibility of jobbing out the operation of the landfill to a private contractor, and If such did take place there might possibly be more hours when the dump was open. *
Replying to Young's charges of J earlier this month that the K & H3 firm had been dumping refuse * from outside the city limits at J the landfill, the commission said J K & H had admitted this but; will no longer do it

Citizens discuss new middle school at Fulton A citizens committee has re
commended a new middle school to the Fulton Board of Education.
Supt. Waino Pihl said the proposed school would be used for grades five through eight, while the other buildings at Middle ton, Perrinton, Maple Rapids and Ola would be used for grades kindergarten through four.
Pihl pointed out that the other buildings would continue to be used even though a new school was built.
"It's going to be up to the board now whether they're going to go ahead. If they feel the cost is prohibitive, then an alternate plan is available for the district to consider," he said.
The alternative would be to construct additions to the present buildings. He said any additions would have to pass the state fire marshal's office.

Another safety plaque St Johns cited for 6th year without a pedestrian fatality
St, Johns received another pedestrian safety citation from the A u t o m o b i l e Club of Michigan Monday night.
Presented to Mayor Charles Coletta, the plaque notes that St. Johns has gone six years w i t h o u t a pedestrian traffic fatality, Revniear Staats of the Safety and Traffic Division of the Automobile Club of Michigan, presented the award at the city c o m m i s s i o n Monday n i g h t meeting.
He noted that cities of St. Johns' size normally average 2.4 pedestrian fatalities a year. There are also an average of 43 pedestrian traffic injuries figured on the basis of 100,000 population, but St. Johns has had only 29 on that basis during the last year.
On hand to share In the r e ceiving of the plaque was Police Chief Everett Glazier. Mayor Coletta complimented the police department and told Staats it was that department which was most directly responsible for the safety record.
THERE WAS ANOTHER item of police business on the commission's brief agenda Monday night. The commission approved a temporary traffic order by Chief Glazier providing for the removal of three two-hour parking signs in the 200-block of South Clinton Avenue next to the high school.
The signs have been replaced by others prohibiting parking in the area between 8 a,m. and 4 p.m. on school days. The commission made the traffic order a permanent one, amending it slightly to prohibit parking there d u r i n g those h o u r s Monday through Saturday.
There were two rezoning matters before the commission Monday night. One was the "first reading" of an ordinance to amend the zoning ordinance and change the zoning of a parcel of land at Scott Road and East Walker Street from 1-1 industrial to R-2 medium densityresidential. Formal action on the ordinance will

because of federal jurisdiction. Duguay said that as far as he knew only the $4,000 confiscated from the men has been recovered, and the rest of the bank holdup loot is still missing.
THE BANK ROBBERY last week shook DeWitt residents. Two men entered the bank shortly before 2 p.m. Wielding a shotgun and a small handgun, they forced eight employees and two customers to lay on the floor while they took about $9,400 from two cash drawers.
Two shots were fired, a pistol shot into the vault and a shotgun blast into the ceiling. A third man drove the get-away car, which was later found abandoned southeast of DeWitt. It had been stolen.
Police roadblocks, set up within minutes of the robbery, failed to net the bandits.
Convenient and necessary as they are, all household cleaning agents should be considered dangerous and handled accordingly. Over-precaution is better than under-precaution.

come at the commission's Oct. 14 meeting.
The other was a formal re quest from Mrs Jack Gee of 708 E. Railroad for the rezoning of all of block 115 and portions of blocks 113 and 114 on the city's north side from R-l re sidential to R-3 residential. The request stems from a desire, commissioners were told, to add an outside stairway to an apart
ment house in the 600 block of North Clinton Avenue. The R-l zone prohibits alterations to the apartment house, or others In. that area, because the house is a non-conforming use.
CITY MANAGER HARVEY Weatherwax was named the city's delegate to the Michigan Municipal R e t i r e m e n t System convention, with City Clerk Thomas
Hundley being named alternate. City employees will also elect a delegate and alternate.
The relatively light agenda was handled by the commission in about 45 minutes. There was also a relatively light audience of s e v e n persons attending the m e e t i n g . All commissioners were present, but City Manager Weatherwax was unable to attend because of illness.
St. Johns Mayor Charles Coletta and Police Chief Everett Glazier receive a six-year pedestrian safety plaque from Revniear Staats (right) of the Automobile Club of Michigan Monday night in recognition for St. 'Johns' death-free pedestrian traf f ic record during 1967.
Duguay explains district court at Jaycee meeting Prosecutor R o l a n d Duguay,
candidate for district court judge, was guest speaker at the recent meeting of the St. Johns Jaycees and told a little of the proposed workings of the new court. ^He, pointed out It will replace justice and municipal courts and will have an expanded civl jur isdiction and can handle any crim
inal case below a felony. There will be a small claims court within the district court, which itself will comprise the entire lower court system.
3 The district court will take 1 effect Jan. 1.' A •
Also speaking to the Jaycees was Derrill Shinabery of the
Clinton County Board of Supervisors, who asked for backing from the group lor the proposed 18-mill fixed millage limitation for the county. It will be voted on in the Novemba-election along with the election of a district judge. Duguay is opposed for thet judgeship by St. Johns Municipal Judge Harold Reed.

-- Last year the Clinton County Board of Supervisors borrowed about $200,000 to tide the county over to the end of the year.
This year they've' taken the precautions to do the same thing, only the figure would be $150,-000.
The board passed two resolutions at its Sept. 16 meeting setting up the mechanics for borrowing, If they need to. The county would sell tax anticipation notes in anticipation of the collection of unpaid operating taxes for the 1969 fiscal year.
Taxes are first due and payable Dec. 1 this year. The money would be borrowed to cover operating expenses of the county for
" the rest of this fiscal year. The notes would be paid out of the first tax money to come in.
In other miscellaneous business last week:
*The board approved two re-zonings as recommended by the Clinton County Zoning Commission. One was for Bonner's House of Deerskin, which isbelngforced to move from its location on US-27 north of Clark Road because of future highway construction,
THE COMMISSION recommended the rezoning of about an acre of land a mile north of the present location. It would be at the corner of sections 3, 4, 9 and 10 In DeWitt Township and will
be zone C commercial. The other rezoning was to C
commercial for a five-lot strip of land fronting on the east side of US-27 Just south of Taft Road. The rezoned area would be in between the highway and the present Buggs -Brothers Locker and would be for an area 396 feet deep by 1,020 feet along the highway. The Buggs propose to build a private service roadfrom their present entrance to handle all five lots. There are no plans announced for the specific use of the property,
*The State Tax Commission will hold an appeals hearing at the courthouse in St. Johns this Friday to hear tax appeals. Bath and Dallas townships are reportedly the only townships listing appeals.
•The board approved the pay-; ment of $800totheClintonCounty Soil Conservation District for the board's quarterly assistance in providing an office secretary for the SCD.
*Dues for 1969 for the Michigan State Association of Supervisors were approved In the amount of $1,000.
•Dale Chapman, county drain commissioner, appeared before the board asking backing for the two state bonding proposals — one for clean water and the other for recreation. He said the bond issues would "not necessarily"
mean higher taxes for state residents, because two current bond issues are near expiration and money now being used to pay them off could be diverted to the new bonds.
•THE-COUNTY BOARD accepted the resignation of William J. Werner as dog warden for the northern half of the county and instructed its agriculture committee to advertise for a new man.
•The board deferred action until the October meeting on a request for office space in St. Johns for the Michigan Employment Security Commission to handle Youth Opportunity Center cases. George Eberhard, director of the Clinton County Department of Social Services, said his department will be pushing its clients toward employment where-ever possible in the future, and such an office in St. Johns might be helpful.
•Referred to the salary and clerk hire committee was a request from a group of county employees to switch the pay period from semi-monthly to bi-weekly.
•The board received a letter from Morlarty Lumber of Michigan, Inc., voicing a complaint about the procedures in letting bids for the 4-H horse barn.
•New county zoning manuals will be ready soon.
*A low bid of $1,750 withtrad-ln was received from Moore Chevrolet of Ovid for a pickup truck for county use. It was the lowest of three bids received. Other bids were for $1,960 from Egan Ford Sales and $l,814from Oliver Montague.
•The bui ld ing and grounds committee was asked to study further the possibility of a single
air conditioning unit for the Department of Social Services. Only one bid was received.
•The bu i ld ing and grounds committee proposed the refurbishing of the exterior of the courthouse, with an estimate of about $3,000 by the D.C. Dyer and Co. for repairing the exterior of the west vault, as well as the north-side and southeast section.

Rehmann's grand opening scheduled this weekend
A gift bar occupies both sides of an archway between the two major sections of the newly remodeled Rehmann's Clothing Store in St. Johns.
Best Wishes to
Rehmann's Clothing Store for men and boys in downtown St. Johns will have a grand opening of their newly remodeled store s t a r t i n g today and continuing through Saturday.
Last spring the store was expanded into a 20x70 building that formerly housed Becker's Appliance, practically doubling the size of the clothing store. More clothing and new features, including a gift bar on both sides of an archway between the two buildings, are now included In the store.
In the remodeling also were restyling of the shoe department, building of new dressing rooms, a new front for the store and red carpeting throughout.
The grand opening comes In conjunction with the store's 32nd anniversary In St. Johns. The b u s i n e s s is owned by A. L. R e h m a n n and sons John and Norbert. '
The Rehmann store opened in 1936 in the north portion of what is now the Clinton National Bank and Trust Co. building. In 1948, having outgrown the bank location, they moved into the building next door to the north and then last spring expanded still farther north.
Rehmann's are of fe r ing a number of prizes during their grand opening celebration. Complete details and information on grand opening specials are contained in afull-page ad elsewhere in Section A.
To hear Girls State reports Jan Flowler and Gall Shafley,
St. Johns representatives at Wolverine Girls State this past s u m m e r , will give reports on their experiences when the St. Johns Woman's Club opens its 1968 - 69 year with a potluck luncheon at the First Methodist Church Oct. 2.
The dinner will start at 12:45 p.m. Meetings will be held the first and fourth Wednesdays of each month through April. A program for the year has been planned with a theme of "Forward Together."
The Woman's Club pointed out that the Norway maple planted by the club on the courthouse lawn in May 1967 Is healthy and growing well, about to contribute its beauty to Michigan's autumn colors.
The tree was planted by the St. Johns Woman's Club as part of the observance of its 75th anniversary. It Is dedicated to the women of St. Johns who organized the club In 1891 as their part towards contributing to the cultural life of the community. Their program included civic betterment—and beautifying the courthouse grounds was one the their early projects. For this reason t h i s tree was planted as a memorial to them.
Boucheys provided the inscription on the plaque buried at the foot of the tree, and Oscar Stock-well who set the marker.
The club engages In many civic a c t i v i t i e s . They support a scholarship for a high schoo l student, an art scholarship to Interlochen, and help send ahigh-school girl to Girl's State. A local girl, grandaughter of club member Mrs Kenneth Jones. Miss Dianna Jones, was selected as winner of the n u r s i n g scholarship s p o n s o r e d by the S ta te Federation of Women's Clubs through the local club's efforts. She is studying at Foote Memorial Hospital at Jackson.

•M Uf jj linton road
repor By ROBERT ELDRIDGE
Road Clerk
At the regular meeting of the board of road commissioners last Wednesday, approval was given to the recommendation of the Traffic Control Bureauofthe Michigan State Police for-the establishment of two speed control zones in the county. A 50 mile per hour limitation was placed on that section of Francis Road between Herbison Road and old US-16 and a 35 mile limit was put on Boichot Road. Signs indicating these speeds have been placed and enforcement officers can now require compliance with them.
Such signs are not p laced willy-nilly about the county; a definite procedure is followed. After receiving petitions from
residents along the road sectors involved, our office requests the state police that a traffic study be made. The Traffic Bureau makes *£his study with the assistance of our engineer, Mr Haske. The bureau then draws up a detailed report on the matter and makes a recommendation on the basis of this report. It is this recommendation that guides the commission in making a decision in the matter.
P l a c e m e n t of intersection signs is, of course, a routine matter and is done by our sign
I department without any particu-f lar. '"authorization. Most other signs are placed after a consideration of their need is made by the engineer or by the commission or by both. Load limit signs, for instance, are generally not placed unless a study of their need is made by the engineer and discussed by the commission.
There are at least two good reasons why considerable thought should and is given to sign placement along our road sides. An over abundance of signs can lead to confusion of the drivingpublic and to the Ignoring of the messages carried by the signs. The placement and maintenance of signs — as I have often mentioned — is an expensive procedure. A r e f l ec to r i zeds top sign, for instance, costs about $25 installed. A small load limit sign represents a cost of nearly $15 so county wide there is a considerable investment in road signs. Last year maintenance of old signs and installation of new ones cost slightly over $10,000, and the cost this year is running well ahead of that. Signs are
vitally necessary, but they do nothing towards improving the roads which is our primary con-N cern. The rash of senseless sign defacement, damage and destruction is a waste of public funds we at the commission can do little about — it is up to the public to stop this drain.
The true value of any religion depends on how much of yourself you have invested in it.

such a small enterprise. see "My mother wasahomemaker.
She carried out the duties of all homemakers in the United States. She was an extremely
"wonlerful cook. Swedish food is quit s similar to ours. We often had ham, chicken, pork, ham-burlf, etc. Almost every meal cheese, bread and "crisp" bread wasl+ served. Crisp Bread is a very thick c r a c k e r . Boiled potatoes were served at every lunch and dinner.
"Some of the rare dishes we had were fresh shrimp, crayfish, clabbered milk, eel, and rosebud soup. Crayfish is a traditional Swedish dish which is eaten on Aug. 8. After the dinner, which is crayfish, toasted bread, and cheqse, a party is held. Most of the time it lasts into the wee hourjs of the morning.

Boy, was I ever surprised when the clock read 3:30 a.m.
"i was then told that the sun rises at 2:30 in the latter part of June, and it rises even earlier in the beginning of the month. They also said that in the winter time the sun doesn't rise until about 9 a.m. By 4 p.m., the town is completely darkened in the winter months. The school children never see the town in daylight during the week.
"School in Sweden is also much different from the way we know it. The young children start to learn to speak English in the third or four th grade. The schools have no extra currlcular activites. They have no competition in sports, or any other organizations. It was so different to hear of students going to school and really and truly hating it because it was such a bore.
"Their parties made up for the lack ' of school fun. A typical party would start about 9 and last for about six hours. Yes, we would come home from a teenage party at about 3 in the morning.

The sports car trend has given a big boost to casual all-weather coats. They're just as popular with hunters and fishermen as they are at sports car rall ies. The popular styles include shaggy-dog coats of fake fur, brushed mohair jackets lined withpop-lin, reversible ponchos of plaid blanketwool,leatherand suede hooded car coats, and others. *
Many of these garments are made of more than one type of fabric—wool and fur blends lined with cotton, dacron or rayon. Before they can be cleaned, your cleaner must analyze the exterior and the lining fabrics for fiber content to d e t e r m i n e which method will be safe for both.
Most of the fabrics used for sports car clothes and other casual outdoor wear have been given pre-shrinkage, water-repellency, and flame res is t ance treatments. These also must be taken into consideration when the article is. dry cleaned.
The simple truth of the matter is that we cannot afford to take chances. We must be sure before we go ahead. This1 kind of extra care means that you can be sure, too, when you send your cleaning to us that every article will be thoroughly and safely cleaned by time-proven methods. Don't take chances with your good clothes.

The St. Johns Redwings caught fire in the second half Friday night and overwhelmecTthe Ionia Bulldogs 27-13 in a West Central Conference football opener for both squads.
Trailing 13-7 at ha l f t ime , Coach Jeff Smith's Redwings rammed in three touchdowns in the fourth quarter, including two within a minute of each other. Mike Green put the icing on the cake with a 48-yard dash off right tackle with two minutes left to round out the scoring.
It was a perfect night for football, and both teamsputonagood show for a good opening night crowd at the St. Johns field. St. Johns took an early lead and held it until halfway th rough the second quarter when Ionia went ahead. St. Johns took it back for good in the last quarter.
Penalities hurt the Redwings seriously in the first half, but they didn't get any in the final two periods and took advantage of 67 yards in penalties against Ionia.
ST. JOHNS TOOK the lead for good with 9:47 left in the game. Terry Mater scored on a two-yard quarterback sneak after Tim Durner hadenglneereda64-yard drive starting in the third period. Mike Green and Chuck Romig carried most of the time. Jeff Silm place-kicked the extra point to make the score 14-13.
Fifty-four s e c o n d s later St. Johns was on the scoreboard again. Romig got in front of a Doug Brown pass at the 15 of Ionia, intercepted it and ran it in for a touchdown. Silm's kickwas good again, and suddenly it was 21-13.
Two series of plays later, with the clock time reduced to three minutes, St. Johns took over on the Ionia 49 after forcing a punt. On the second play from scrimmage, Green found daylight in the line and streaked past the Ionia secondary for 48 yards and a touchdown. Silm's extra-point kick was blocked.
To top the game off right, the St. Johns defense, made, up mostly of second-stringersplay-ing in the final minutes, stopped an Ionia touchdown drive at the three yard line with 24 seconds left in the game.
The Redwings started the game off in good fashion, too. They took the opening kickoff and went 64 yards in 14 plays for the first touchdown of the game. Mike Green got that with a three-yard charge up the middle. He and Romig had alternated in carrying the ball on mostly short-gainers that ate up over 6-1/2 minutes of playing time. Silm's kick put the Redwings in front 7-0.
Ionia's first touchdown came with 14 seconds left in the first period after both teams had exchanged fumbles. A 15-yard penalty against St. Johns was a contributing f ac to r . Halfback Greg Wilson scored the TDfrom the three-yard line. A pass attempt for the extra point failed.
THE BULLDOGS scored again with 7:31 left in the half after recovering a St. Johns fumble near mid-field. They moved to the St. Johns 14, again with the help of

Accuracy not easy for grid contest fans Last week was not a good week
for guessing the results of football games'. The scores of people who entered the second weekly contest sponsored by the Clinton County News were missing selections right and left.
The winner—Kent Murton of R-2, St. Johns-missed eight selections out of 20 (the Ovid-Elsie vs "Arthur Hill Tech" game was ruled no-contest because O-E actually played Dearborn Heights Annapolis).
Gail Davis of R-5, St. Johns, also missed eight, but Murton won on the strength of a tiebreaker score that was six points off the exact total compared to eight points on the Davis entry.
There were two tie games this week which hurt everybody,

St. Johns fans were in another dither before halftime. The Redwings lost the ball on downs on their own 38 with 2:12 left in the half, and Ionia almost got in for a touchdown before time ran out. They made it to the six-yard line with 6 seconds to go, but Terry Maier intercepted a Brown pass in the end zone to end the threat.
Despite all the scoring, there was a lot of ball control by both teams. Ionia rang up 15 first downs and St. Johns 13.

Arthur Bouchey stands next to memorials shipped in from all-over the world for display outside the Bouchey Monument Co0 building in St. Johns.
St. Johns business
Boucheys handle their work with 'monumental' concern By MRS SHIRLEy-KARBER
News Staft Writer Bouchey Monument Co. of St.
Johns is unique in that these shops are not always available in a city the size of St. Johns. Many people have to place orders for their memorials without the advantages of being able to actually see the quality and color
-of their selections.
Bouchey Monuments, located at 1014 N. Clinton Avenue, and 1004 East Center Street, Ithaca, is a family-owned business.
Arthur Bouchey started his trade in 1928, and now his two sons, Harlan, draftsman cutter, and Jack in sales, alsotakepride and personal satisfaction in doing dedicated precision work for their customers.
Memorial stones are brought here from all over the world-Balmoral, finished granite from Finland, m a r b l e from_Italy, grariite^from Barre, Vt., and rose granite from the Laurentian Mountains in Canada.
The «tone is quarried at the deposit'site, checked for mineral content (especially iron), sawed into slabs, and polished. Quarry blocks can lift 80 to 100 tons, but only about one-sixth of the granite mined can be used for memorials. The rest is used mainly for construction purposes. Basically one cubic foot of^rough granite weighs 200 pounds; finished it weighs 180 pounds.
THERE ARE OVER 300 kinds of granite, and the deeper the mining the darker the stone's color. Surface stone is lighter, more coarse and of less value. The deeper the strata of stone the better the quality.
The stones are then shipped to dealers all over the country and set in their display areas. When the customer buys a memorial, the inscription is ordered and Bouchey starts his work. . The size of.-, the Inscription is measured and centered on the stone. The polish is removed from the stone on this section
Arthur Bouchey shows his two-stage air-cooled air compressor, used to blast letters into stone,.
only, then a rubber stencil with a peel-off backing is stuck over this area . The layout man makes the layout and the stencil is cut with a stencil blade.
Abrasive is then b l a s t ed against the stone with air pressure 80 to 100 pounds to the desired l e t t e r i n g depth. This abrasive has the cutting quality of a diamond. To avoid breathing this dust, large airplane-type suction fans are used and for close work a dust respirator is used over the face.
The amount of time varies,but in years past Bouchey says it was not unusual to spend 50 to 60 hours on a memorial using such crude instruments as chisels, air hammers and sand blasting machines.
Today, with modern equipment and the help of automation, the worjc is easier but great care is still of prime importance to insure proper delivery and setting of the stones. The stones are carried on padded trucks and it's not unusual for these men to wear white gloves while handling large white stones to avoid any possibility of chipping or sweat and dirt marks.
REPAIRS TO memorials are difficult and expensive. When vandals break stones in cemeteries they cannot be repaired to their original quality. Oil, grass stains or blood can be very damaging, since the stone has a tendency to a b s o r b these s u b stances. If this should happen, Bouchey warns, wash it off as soon as possible with soap and water.
To guarantee quality in your memorials, Bouchey suggests, know your i dealer's reputation and buy brand names. Many quarries today put seals on t h e i r granite but this is no guarantee that the quality is the best. To his knowledge, Bouchey says, "Rock of Ages", the memorials they use, is the only* memorial guaranteed both to you and to the cemetery where it is erected.

Draft registration urged
Insurance companies in the United States paid nearly $812 million in premium taxes to 50 states in 1966, according to the Insurance Information Institute. TERRY ESTES
In a concerted effort to insure timely legal registration of young men on their 18th birthday, the local draft board is requesting the cooperation of school o f f i ca l s and youth agencies in publicizing draft registration requirements, Fred Lewis, chairman of Local Board No. 19, Cl in ton County, announced.
Many young men forget to register on their 18th birthday and thereby lay themselves liable
to being declared delinquents and scheduled for priority induction,, according to Lewis.
Young men are required to register for the draft within five days after their 18th birthday.
R e g i s t r a t i o n may be accomplished at any local board office. Men -who are away from home on their 18th birthday may go to any local board where they are located and register for the draft.
The local draft board currently
.has a total of 8,000 registrants, including all males born after Aug. 30, 1922. The local board registered 452 men during the past 12 months, compared with 413 registrants for the previous year.
Members of reserve and Na t iona l Guard units are required to be registered for the draft. Only persons on active duty in the armed forces are not required to register '

This column of questions and answers on federal tax matters is provided by the local office of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and is published as a public service to taxpayers. The column answers questions most frequently asked by taxpayers.
• • Q-I just got a bill for addition
al tax. Can I pay this off in installments?
A-There is no provision for the payment of taxes in installments. Payment Is due upon receipt of the bill. You will also find that the bill includes interest on your unpaid taxes at the rate of six percent a year.
Q-What form do I use to report tips to my boss? I want to get credit for them for Social Security purposes.
A-Use Form 4070 and give it to your employer by the 10th of the month following the month
your employer for withholding, howeverl He will make the necessary withholding from the (wages he pays you. The general rule on tip income is to report it when it amounts to $20 or more a month earned while working for one employer. IRS has a diary that can be used to keep a daily record of your tips. Send a post card to your district director and ask for Document No. 563 Q-Whe'n i

to the settlement of his tax liability have failed, does IRS initiate action to enforce the law.
Q — I give my maid lunch. Do I have to pay social security tax on that too?
A — Nj). The Social Security tax applies only to cash paid to household employees for wages and transportation. You do not have to include the value of the meals you provide.
Q— I just got a letter inviting me to a charity ball. If I buy tickets can I list this as a charitable deduction?
A — This may be a deductible expense if the event is sponsored by a qualified organization. In that case, a deduction may be taken for that portion of the ticket price that exceeds the value you receive by buying the tickets. In other words, if the tickets entitle you to attend a dance then you would have to subtract what it would cost to attend a similar dance from the amount you pay for the tickets to determine the deduction. If you buy the tickets and do not attend the event the law still requires you to reduce your charitable contribution by the value of your ticket. To simplify things for contributors, IRS has requested that sponsors of charitable fun-raising events list the actual admission price and the amount solicited as a contribution right on the ticket.
For1 the most effective lawn weed control, apply sprays now, advises William Meggitt, Michigan State Univers i ty 1 crop scientist.
"If you spray your lawn between now and Oct. 15, before the ground freezes, any weeds that are killed will be replaced by 'grass which is growing at its best this time of year," ex-plains Meggitt.
"Delaying your sprav urogram until next summer will mean that the dead weeds will be replaced with crabgrass or other annual weeds."
He says the combination of 2, 4-D amine and sllyex, applied at the rate of one pound of active chemical "per acre, will control dandelions, plantains, c lover , chickweed, black medic, creeping Charlie, red sorrell and round-leaved mallow.

Corn drying requirements not clear-cut
ASC PROGRAM
County price support
on corn set at $1.09
More f a r m e r s are drying shelled corn these days, with picker-shelters helngusedmore e x t e n s i v e l y in corn growing areas. There is no clear-cut guideline that quickly identifies one drying as. best for any particular .farm, thinks George McQueen, Clinton County Extension agricultural agent.
E x i s t i n g equ ipmen t and storages, volume, labor available, expansion possibilities and market outlets allneed consideration in making the decision, the agent explained.
Daily volume is probably the most important item to consider since weather conditions in the area determine how much time there is to harvest and dry grain.
Farmers should select a piece of equipment that has a capacity to dry in 16 hours what can be harvested in a 10-hour working day, said McQueen. Farmers who figure on more than 15 actual
harvest, days—not counting "down time* or days when weather is too bad to harvest—usually hit it about right, McQueen says. "Although we have a longer t ime-usually 30 days or more—to harvest corn, farmers must figure about half of that time Is lost by weather, equipment tie-ups or repair problems."
The agent alsbremindedfarm-ers that little actual drying takes place when temperatures are below 50 degrees and relative hu-

4-H Notes
The Saddle Mates 4-H Club members placed first in the best of horse ' groups at .the DeWitt Ox Roast and won $10. During the winter, the members will be taking the veterinary science project Unit H which covers animal diseases. Enrollment time for the class will take place on . Saturday, Oct. 12, at Betty Moot's home near DeWitt starting at 3 p.m. The club discussed holding a hayride in October and a trail ride later this year.
The Detroit Junior Livestock Show will be held in Detroit on Oct. 28-30 while the Western Michigan Livestock Show will be held Dec. 17-19 in Grand Rapidsi Some of the 4-H members who had light steers for the cpunty fair might be interested in showing them in either of the two shows above.
Puppetry
The origins of puppetry are prehistoric. Although it has been practiced the world over, puppet show's have probably been seen by more people in a 20-year period of U.S. television than all the audiences it attracted in the last 2,000 years.
Clean wholesome dairy products is the goal of Michigan's huge* dairy industry thatvlast year provided a whopping $241 million milk check to the cattle owner who now is preparing his animals for winter. The cold months present special sanitation problems.
To maintain a clean milk program some dairy herd owners are clipping objectionable hair on a few cows each day. This will continue until the entire herd is readied for winter when animals will spend most of the time in barns.
Clipping dairy cows is urged by Kenneth Van Patten, chief of the Michigan Department of.Ag-riculture's Dairy Division. This division is responsible for enforcing all laws governing whole-someness of milk from farm to, retail outlet.
Van Patten says clipping hair on cows is not a legal require-' ment. Butitisnecessaryinorder to make the mi lk ing process more sanitary, he says. Strict sanitation is essential to all levels in milk production.
Clipping is usually easy in the autumn, but difficult after cows have been housed indoors for weeks.- Clippers may be rented from milk producer associations and dairy plants that are interested in receiving raw milkof the highest possible quality.
Dairy division inspectors work in all parts of the state and at all levels of milk production to maintain the high standards of dairy p roduc t wholesomeness required by Michigan law. .

Last Wednesday we held a final look at corn-trials on the Marvin Simon farm south and west of Fowler, They will be harvested soon for dry grain yields and dry matter (feed) production for each of the 20 varieties.
The first v i s u a l difference noted was the range of maturity of the hy- %*&-• brids. Some cou ld • be picked then and had been r eady for silage early in the month. Some others needed more time even for silage.
'Next to catch the eyewas height of the plant. Differences of 1-1/2 to two feet between varieties existed, but some varieties which normally are short were tall, and so on. This emphasizes findings of many years that each growing season affects growth habits of corn varieties differently. Such details as height of plant, height of ear, number of suckers, diameter of stalk, time pf^pollination, time, of silking, and ;rate,,of ;drying of the ear, are a few.
A difference in down stalks was quite apparent, too.
All things considered, about the only conclusion apparent at that time was the eye is not a good guide when judging corn hybrids. The real proof will be at harvest and measured in dry bushels and dry feed.
WE ALSO LOOKED at the effect of various chemicals on weed control over the full season; These observations showed the best for quackgrass control was a split application of atrazine with' 2-1/2 pounds app l i ed before plowing and 2-1/2 pounds after planting.
When crops other than corn, oats", and beets are to follow, primaze or a combination of atrazine and lorox did a very good job on weeds.
Atrazine at planting time remains tops in weed control in corn. Perhaps additional recommendations will be available before next planting season. Check with us then for the latest information on weed control by chemicals.
Loans are available for farm stored corn and corn stored inan approved warehouse.
Warehouse stored corn must grade number 3 or better or number 4 on the factor of test weight only, and contain not more than 15 per cent moisture.
Corn stored in an approved warehouse must have the storage charges paid through July 31, 1969.
WITH THE MARKET price of corn well below the support price, we anticipate a lot ofpro-ducers will use the loan program this year. Demand for storage could exceed available space, so I suggest producers who wish to rent s t o r a g e in an approved
.warehouse to contact their warehouseman early to be sure of getting storage.
Loans will be available for corn stored on the farm in good storage. Temporary snow fence cribs will not qualify as adequate storage.
The national'advisory committee meets to discuss 1969 feed grains on Oct. 7 and 8 at the request of Secretary of Agriculture Orville L. Freeman.
Faced withabumper feed grain crop this year, the committee in October will help develop plans to bring production in line with utilization for the 1969 crop'year, and to limit the build-up of national carry-over.
To guide farmers who fall-plant wheat and barley, the U.S. Department of Agriculture has announced the minimum qualifying diversion for participation in the 1969 feed grain program will be in the range of 20 to 25 per cent of the base acreage.
Additional voluntary acreage
W. M. SMITH County ASC Manager
diversion also was projected for next( year because of current crop- p roduc t ion prospects. Based on the Sept. 1 conditions, both corn and sorghum national average yields each may be about 5 bushels per acre greater than
.last year's record highs. Substantially larger yields also are indicated for oats (up 3.6 bushels per'acre), and barley (up 2.2 bushels). N e a r l y 100 million acres are involved in production of these four feed grain crops.
THE 36-MEMBER committee consists. of grain and livestock producers, representatives of the grain industry,, and people in the other fields. It is called into session at regular intervals to provide the secretary of agriculture with guidance and counsel on wheat, feed grain and soybean programs. It met last on April 24 and 25, 1968, to help develop the 1969 wheat program,
I remind producers with farm stored grain to check it every week until cold weather; many producers are having trouble with weevil.
New centennial farm designated
DeWitt—A farm owned by Otto H. and Thelma Dickinson of 980 W. Chadwick Road, DeWitt, has been designated as a centennial farm by the Michigan^Historical Commission."',; ,* ,,,,"*,,, ,,,,,,
.-The. farm, .ipcated;i in Riley, Township, has been in^.the possession of the family since 1866.
Many of the original building still stand and are still usable, including the fruit cellar on the back of the house, Mrs Dickinson notes. This land was once, covered by a lake, and her grandfather had to drain it before building. The house has 11 rooms and sits on 40 acres of land that produces corn, wheat, and oats.
She has many treasures from the past including a letter found recently describing the sailing of her grandfather from England to this country.
"She with her husband and two children sought their home in America. They gathered Up their ^effects and took sail in a merchant vessel of poor sailing record at Liverpool, England. They were 10 weeks on the ocean,very near a water and bread famine. When they landed at New.York they found-they had between them 25 cents all told and the clothes on their backs. Thomas Brace started out exploring the country.
He found labor and stayed in New York State."
Mr Brace later moved to Royal Oak, and from there to Clinton County. He was a basket weaver and farmer t and oncewalked to Royal Oak to drive the cattle.up. here for his farm.
Persons owning farms who wish to apply for. centennial farm certificates are asked to write for an a p p l i c a t i o n s Cen tenn ia l Farm Program. Michigan Historical Commission, Department of State, Lansing, Mich. 48918
FCI deadline on wheat Sept. 30
Sept. 30 is the final date for farmers to make application for F e d e r a l Crop Insurance protection on wheat for 1969. A closing date for applications is necessary because protection attaches to an insured crop at the time it is planted.
Federal Crop Insurance provides protection against all risks and is offered to farmers through the U.S. D e p a r t m e n t of Agriculture, It is available to both land owners and operators.
Those interested in making a p p l i c a t i o n , or securing additional information, should contact the FCIC District Office at 900 W.'OttawaStreet, Lansing.

Moisture control big factor The control of moisture in
stored.grain is just as important to the cash grain farmer as any other phase of his crop production, contends George R. McQueen, Clinton County agricultural agent.
Corn shelled in the field must be dried if it is to be stored as a cash crop, he says. And it can now be dried on the farm just as it can be dried in the elevator. \
McQueen and Robert L. Maddex, Michigan State University agricultural engineer, say the basic costs involved are:
. e 1) InitiaLequip.mentcostjwhich can_be covered'in farm records by annual depreciation. •-• ..
2) Operating costs for fuel and power to run the dryer.
3) The cost of labor and equipment to handle the grain.
4) Grain losses that occur during handling.
Since a moisture content of 15.5 per cent gets the top market price, moisture in corn must be
. removed at harvest time, explain McQueen and Maddex.
"If a farmer has access to a good commercial drying unit that has the capacity to keep up with the harvest, he should consider this method seriously before investing in on-the-farm drying equipment," says Maddex.
"But, where long waiting in lines at elevators or dryers is common or prices are lowered excessively at busy drying seasons, farm drying may be an answer."

'Brown b needn'tb
By HELEN MEACH Extension Home Economist
The lunch crowd of "brown baggers" grows with the coming of fall.
Many have limited time for lunch—they cannot go home or wait to be served. Some like home cooked food. Others find they have a greater variety for less money by carrying their lunch to work or school.
Sometimes s p e c i a l g r o u p s or c 0 m m ittees have become "brown baggers ," eating and meeting together a t noon to conduct business and program within the alloted lunch time.
With a bit of pre-planning, a carried lunch can be tasty, colorful and nutritionally well balanced..
Sack meals should be kept in a cool place because cooked food is perishable. If refrigeration is not ava i l ab l e , s andwichesand cooked meats may be frozen before packing the lunch. As the frozen food thaws it will keep vegetable relishes and f r e s h fruits refreshingly cool.
The following foods and combinations are popular with the "brown bag" crowd: A sesame seed sandwich bun filled with two slices of cold meat layered with sharp cheddar cheese and well drained dill pickle slices. This is a hearty sandwich! Fall grapes are good finger fruits for desert.

Mark will be fourteen years old this month, He is very thoughtful these days^Many an hour is spent on the back lawn with watercolors and pad, mostly thinking or dreaming.
Boundless curiosity is his, and "why" a certain response to every answer he receives. Besides painting, he likes to hunt, swim, golf, read, and putter in the basement with test tubes. Only recently, girls have been included with rifles and missile shots as a favored topic of CP»IW» «"ji."
He talks about God, too. In hi*> I "ii answers to the universe, he instii'.iti" r..'in discussions that range from ethic-> *•• < i»i*nr. from atoms to apple cores.
It's small wonder that I thank KWI (Lily u ' His Church and its teachings. It- ti'i'n*- ii"ip me answer with assurance the qu<- :'.'»ii- Mai1: .asks in his search for understand n u'

TffliVK OiV Tff£SE THINGS
A devotional message written each week by a pastor of a Clinton County church
"'A
By JUSTIN SHEPARD Minister, Duplaln Church of Christ
The name of our column is taken from the Bible. The last lour words of Phlllpplans 4:8 (think on these things) do not compose the entire verse. The bulk of the verse consists of a list of those "things" of which we are to think of and fill our minds.
Taking them in some semblance of order, today we come to "whatsoever things are true." Under this heading we want to mention the truth about God. As you can probably already see, we have an endless amount of material in this verse, and it could result in not a few articles.
May this article be the last needed to be written in answer to the "God Is Dead" proponents. Be honest with me as we think together on the truth about God. Some logical questions should confront those who proclaim that God is dead. Let us consider the following:
1. Has He been buried? 2. What was the illness that killed Him? 3. Did God die of old age or- was it some affliction that is
common to man? 4. How does anyone know that He is really dead? 5. Was an inquest held to determine the cause of His death? 6. Are there any mourners among those who believe He is
dead or are they rejoicing? 7. Do those who believe He died believe He" ever lived? 8. Is it true that the Communist, the modernist and the revo
lutionist have been laughing up their sleeve since the news of God's death?
9. Are we going,to build a monument to Him? Will we choose a mausoleum? Will He be officially buried in Russia or the U.S.?
10. What will they inscribe on the tomb? 11. What date will they put on the headstone? 12. Will all churches be destroyed or will they be made
museums in His honor? 13. Who are His heirs? 14. Will they hold a council to elect a successor to Him? 15. Will they consider Jesus as a possible successor? 16. Will the Bible be discarded as a worthy Book? 17 What action will be taken toward those of us who believe
that God is alive and that He has a book the condemns the vain philosophies of men?
NOTE: Can people all over this country and the world talk daily to such a God and receive answers, and strength and guidance if He is dead?
THINK ON THESE THINGSI

Church Women United board to meet Oct. 4 A board meeting of the Clinton
County Church Women United will be held Oct. 4 at 1:30 p.m. at the Lloyd Campbell residence at 207 E. Walker Street, St. Johns. Mrs Camp b e n is the group's secretary.
Throughout the year church women all over the United States express their concern for people in other parts of the world who are less fortunate than they by sewing garments which are needed and shipped overseas to areas of acute need by Church World Service. In addition they contribute yard goods, blankets and other much-needed items.
This year the need is greater than ever. In response Church Women's United has chosen as the material aid projects for World Community Day, ready-cut out g a r m e n t s , complete with instructions for sewing. For $3 each packet will contain blouse or jacket, a skirt or trousers and underpants. These garments will be suitable for children in the middle east, Viet Nam or Indonesia.
This year CWU is offering the gift certificate plan as an opportunity to groups who do not wish to sew but nevertheless wish to contribute three dollars. This will enable the Church World Service to select a choice of a blanket.or five yards,offabric

WACOUSTA - Samuel I. Shirey, son of Glenn and Audrey Shirey of 8480 Herblson Road has achieved the highest award* possible" in scouting—he received the Eagle Scout award Sept. 17 at a ceremony at Looking Glass Valley Park in Wacousta.
The Rev Dale Spoor of the Wacousta United Method i s t Church gave the invocation and benediction.
The Eagle ceremony was conducted by a ceremonial team from Explorer Post 132, sponsored by Juds'on Memorial Baptist Church in Lans ing . The members were dressed inlndian costume,, and the ceremony was done in an Indian camp setting.
Shirey started scouting in Cub Pack 260, advanced through Web-elos, began as a Tenderfoot in the spring of 1964, earned the rank of second class in the fall of 1964, became first class in the spring of 1965, star in spring of 1966, and his life Scout badge was awarded in February 1967.
He completed his final requirements for the Eagle award in February 1968, and passed his review board last April, 1968.
Shirey has held the following offices during his scouting career: assistant patrol leader for one year; patrol leader oneyear; served as scribe for six months and in May 1968 became Troop 60 junior assistant scoutmaster.
Parents invited to find out about Scouting "School Night for Scouting" is

'mm INDIANS PERFORM FOR HUNDREDS AT POW-WOW IN ST. JOHNS
As many as 30 Indians in full costume performed for 10 times that many spectators on the.4-H fairgrounds in St. Johns Saturday afternoon during an Indian pow-wow „ They performed their dances in a circle around a half-dozen drummers who provided the beat and chant. In the background is the new St. Johns High School under construction.
«A baby is God's opinion that the world should go on.*
This quote by Carl Sandburg exemplifies the goals and purposes on which Michigan Children's Aid Society was founded. While its services are available to children of various ages, the society is involved primarily with babies and pre-schoolers.
Services of Michigan Children's Aid Society are well known to numerous persons in the Clinton County area. Last yearalone some 192 Clinton County residents were served through one or more of the three programs carried on by the society—placement of children for adoption, temporary child care and supervision in f o s t e r homes, -and counseling unmarried mothers.
A breakdown of the 192 residents shows 36 were from Bath, 40 from DeWitt, 5 from Eagle, 3 from Elsie, 2 from Fowler, 3 from Maple Rapids, 15 from Ovid, 43 from St, Johns and 45 from other parts of the county.
The Lansing branch is one of 16 such offices of the society located throughout the state. It Is a member agency of United Community Chest and depends on vil-untary giving through the Chest for a major portion of its operating revenue.
LAST YEAR THE local branch
established a record in the number of children placed for adoption. Ninety childrenwereplaced for adoption In the Community Chest area, 25 in neighboring counties, andanother seven elsewhere in the state.
Also showing an increase was the foster care program, Elmer M. Arnesen, executive .director, reports that the number of children taken into care last year increased to 143, from the 123 served in 1966.
Of the parents served under the unmarried mother program, 219 were girls from the Greater Lansing area.
Michigan Children's Aid was founded in 1891 at St. Joseph. Since that early beginning the society has grown as the demand for its services continued to increase.
The Lansing branch was organized in 1919. Originally much emphasis was placed on the provision of foster care for dependent and neglected children. In the mid 50's -the branch had more than 100 older children in foster care, many of whom had been in foster care for most of their lives. Relatively few adoptions were being made and service to unwed mothers was not extensive. .
In the past 10 years the emphasis has changed so that there are no really older children in foster care, and work with unwed mothers has increased we'll over 300 per cent. Adoptive placements a l s o have risen sharply.
LAST YEAR THE local agency1
received 263 I n q u i r i e s about
Low bidder named for US-27 paving project
A low bid of $49,579 for paving of a mile of US--Z7 in Clinton County will be recommended to the State Administrative Board for approval following the opening of highway construction bids in Lansing Sept. 11.
Spartan Asphalt Paving Co. of Holt submitted the apparent low bid for the Clinton County project. It involves a'mile of US-27 between Northcrest Road (end of the current improvement on US-27 near Lansing) and a point south of Clark Road.
The project is to be completed by July 31, 1969.
The other bidder for the project was Rieth-Riley Construction Co. of Battle Creek with a bid of $50,122.
adoption and 132 applications. Home studies were completed on 124 applicants and 122 children were placed. In addition, 224 children were under supervision in adoptive homes.
Arnesen said the normal waiting period for adoptions is about seven months after the first inquiry. Following placement of a child, the agency is responsible for supervision for a period of one year before the adoption is final.
Under the foster care p r o -—gram, the agency had 44 chil
dren in foster homes at the end of 1966 and accepted 143 new children during 1967.Comingin-to the current year 41 children were waiting to be placed.
Cost for service to the 192 Clinton County residents benefiting from Michigan Children's Aid in 1967 was $9,033.60.
During 1967 some 5,198 Clinton County residents received direct benefit from one or more of the 21 local member agencies of the United Community Chest. Cost to the agencies to provide this service was $61,372.79.
This year Clinton County citizens will be asked to meet a goal of $23,683 as their fair share of an overall Community Chest goal Of $1,933,868.

Social security da to changes can be made locally
Social security beneficiaries in Clinton County who need to report changes of address or other events that affect the payment of their monthly benefits may now do so through the social security office at Room 201, Federal Building, 216 Townsend Street, Lansing. Roger W. Sea-mon, district manager, said reports may be made by mail, telephone, or personal visit,
Seamon said that up to now beneficiaries were encouraged to notify the Social Security Administration about the occurrence of these events on postcard forms pre^- addressed to one of six social security record centers throughout the count ry . Beneficiaries received the postcard forms when they initially applied for monthly benefits,
Seamon said that the change in reporting methods is designed to reduce the time needed to change addresses and process o the r information having an effect on payment of monthly benefits. The change is prompted by the increased capacity of social security district off ices to transmit the information over high speed communications circuits to records offices.
In addition to address changes Seamon said events that affect receipt of monthly social security checks include employ ment, marriage or remarriage and in some instances, divorce, and death.

Safe at home? Half of all the blind in the nation today
are victims of a needless tragedy, claims the National Society for the Prevention of Blindness. In addition to those cases due to the neglect in getting an early diagnosis and proper treatment of eye diseases, many are because of accidents.
According to latest data from the Public Health Service's National Health Survey, more than 40 per cent of the accidents causing vision impairment in the U.S. today occur in the home. This represents a greater number than the combined number of at-work and automobile accidents in which eye injuries are'sustained.
This high incidence of home eye injuries is due to carelessness because people just haven't learned to take industry, school and automobile safety habits and attitudes home with them.
To remedy this situation, the society recommends that all members of the family wear all-purpose safety goggles when mowing lawns (especially with power mowers), burning trash, pruning bushes, spraying plants with insecticides, and while spreading chemical fertilizers. For proper safety goggles for around the home and garden, a local optical equipment center may be consulted. -
The society also warns against throwing glass bottles, used batteries, empty spray cans on trash fires, which can cause them to explode, showering potentially-blinding fragments of glass and metal and caustic chemicals.
Everyone who wears glasses should wear safety glasses, especially children and senior citizens who are exposed to more and new home-eye-accident hazards.
The society urges parents to keep aerosol sprays c o n t a i n i n g pressurized liquldsj?'§uch as deodorants1, antibio'tics, oven cleaners, paints, and hair fixatives out of the reach of children at all t imes. It also warns parents that 17 per cent of the more serious injuries to children's eyes are caused by missile-type toys such as pellet guns, dart guns, air guns, bean shooters, and toys having protruding points and sharp edges.
If we put to full use the scientific and safety knowledge already available, half of all blindness can be prevented. By following these eye-safety recommendations, you and your family can be safer at home.
A Colorful Season Autumn means different things to dif
ferent people, but, for all of us, autumn comes this year on Sept. 22. To some, it ushers in the excitement of football, others look forward to the hunting season, still others journey to the northlands to view the red, gold and yellow autumn colors that no artist can quite catch in all their glory.
There are still other people, especially on farms, to whom autumn means the conclusion of harvesting and planting. In the cities, autumn brings a freshness and anew life—the opening of another theatre season.
Each of the seasons has its attractions, and autumn has its full share. So whether you are a nature lover, theatre goer, football fan or just a plain stay-at-home who enjoys the smell of the cool fall air, there is something in autumn for you.
TAYLORSVILLE, N.C. TIMES: "It 's only a fraction of the dollar drain, but upward of $13 million a month is mailed to social security beneficiaries living in foreign countries.

GRASSfiOOTS OPINION
Parity prices ByW. E. DOBSON
I How many haircuts in a bushel of wheat7
It depends on the time and the place, Not every hair-snipper today Is involved
In this silly inflation rat race.
In the long ago days the old-timers recall , With haircuts a quarter a throw,
Wheat netted the grower at market or mill, In the realm of a dollar or so.
Now it took just as long, 'n longer I guess, To go over a man's fuzzy dome,
When standard equipment the barber possessed Was a chair, 'n shears, 'n a comb.
If savings were less in those days than now, The quarters were silver context—
'N cutters took pride in the Job they had done, 'Ere dismissing their client with "Next".
The wheat price today is scarcely a buck, But haircuts 'n blood pressure r i se ,
While hair that is long 'n braided a bit, Looks better to more 'n more guys.
It takes a real man to lug enough wheat Today just to buy a haircut,
No wonder the grower gets shy of the chair, 'N looks more 'n more like King Tut,
With three dollar "peelings" now clearly in sight, Our full hoard of wheat we must save
For what used to purchase a full-fledged haircut. Today wouldn't buy~a neck shave!
P.S. No, I would not go back to those long ago days,
'N i t ' s not just at barbers I point, But I cannot refrain from pointin' again
To how parity gits out of joint.

The mob which daily assembled to demonstrate and to challenge police lines had its share of daisy-pickers but italso had professional revolutionaries and long-haired toughs looking for trouble.
Beginning Wednesday morning a foul odor permeated the" huge Conrad Hilton, the convention headquarters, and the Palmer House where delegates from Florida and 10 other states were quartered. The smell was enough to drive outside anyone with normal sensibilities. In the Hilton, the effect was as though someone had been sick in all 2700 rooms. (TV commentators called It tear gas.)
Police on Friday announced the arrest of threeyoungwomen from Newark, N.J., on charges of perpetrating this offense. Investigators said they found in their purses small vials of a chemical (vituric acid) which was used to create the odor; in a locker rented by one of the trio was a jog of the stuff-enough presumably to have made the convention hall itself unbearable.

I did not hear any commentator show anger at the taunting and obscenities hurled at the policemen.

REP. J A M E S F, BATTIN <jMont.) * . . I include the following in the Record, (Excerpts from the column of Betty Beale, in the Washington, D.C,, Sunday Star.)
This columnist has just r e turned from Chicago-unblood-led, unpelted an,d even unbruised, thanks' to the ' Chicago police.
It is time one member of the media gave the other side of the picture because the public has a right to know. '
Every time a newsman was hurt the screams of protest went around the world, but how much was said about the newsmen who taunted the police or tried to get action for the TV cameras?
A member of the vice president's coterie heard two reporters having a great laugh In the
coffee shop of the Conrad Hilton about how they agitated in G r a n t Park until the police started pushing them around.
Sen. Daniel Inouye of Hawaii, World War hero and Democratic keynoter, said the hippies were throwing plastic bags of human e x c r e m e n t at the police and g u a r d s in Grant Park. They were also throwing rubber balls stuck with long nails aimed for the eyes.
How would those commentators who thought the p o l i c e "over-reacted" have behaved it t h e s e things had happened to them?
I usually try every week to avoid writing about something that other columnists are writing about. But I just can't bring myself to ignore our Tigers. This has been the *Year of the Tiger," finally, and any Tiger fan who isn't bubbling over after last week's monumental ac tivities has got to be ill.
I've been waiting for this year since 1950, That was when my folks moved to Michigan and when I ftrst came to realize there was big league baseball and how interesting it could be.
As a kid I probably listened to three-quarters of the Tiger games d u r i n g the summer months (they were practically all afternoon games, then) and I spruced things up by keeping a scorebook on the games frequently. I never got to the point, though, that I religiously folr lowed batting a v e r a g e s and knew who could hit what pitcher best.
From age 10 on I wasanavld fan. When the Tigers lost Iwas glum. When they won the sun shone brightly.
When they blew a game (as only the Tigers can blow them), there wasn't anybody madder or sadder. I remember one time in 1950 or 1951. they sailed along for eight innings with a big lead over, I think, the Boston Red Sox. They they blew it in the ninth, and after two men were out Boston scored something like 10 runs and beat them 10-6 or something like that;
I WAS SO MAD I cried. What made the bitter pill even harder to swallow was the fact my brother saw this and spilled the beans to my dad, and he had to go and mention It in a crowded b a r b e r shop with w h a t sounded at the time like a megaphone voice.
I also sat and listened one time when Boston scored 17 runs in one inning against the Tigers. That was back in the 1950s, too, and set a record for runs in one inning. I had been
keeping score with my notebook but became h o p e l e s s l y confused after the Sox batted around twice and still were at the plate.
There were many other times when I labored through Tiger defeats. There was the time I saw my first major league game—the Tigers and the Chicago White Sox. Les Jenkins was living at Hart yvet then and he got tickets and we all went down to "Briggs Stadium". The Tigers lost, of course,- and there were back-to-back homers hit off them.
I've seen the Tigers play only about five times, actually, and they won only once. The last time, this past spring, they played Washington but stuTgot beat, and to add Insult to injury, that was the game when Frank Howard of the Nats hit two homers including one that cleared the left field roof,
I've suffered through many, many TV games where the Ti gers have played terrible baseball and others where they'd lead all the way and then get themselves in s u c h horrible predicaments they would just about make a nervous wreck of me.
BUT I HAVE REJOICEDwith them, too. Etched in my mind are a great belly-sliding catch of a fly ball by Charley "Paw Paw* Maxwell, a leaping backhand catch against the center-field wall by Bill Tuttle in his rookie year way back in the 50's, and the time when Al Ka-line raced across the foul line to make a dazzling grab of a deep pop fly and then in the same motion turn and throw out a runner trying to score from third base after the catch.
There are many memories of the Tigers in the past. The more you think about them the more, come back to you. There were good years in the 1950s with pennant-contending teams, and there were bad years where the Tigers couldn't win by any stroke of luck.
But I forgive them. This "Year of the Tiger" has been a great one, and they have provided a great deal of spirit and enthusiasm for Michigan society as a whole. Their countless come -from - behind victories have been inspirational. Denny McLaln's overpowering s u c cesses and his gesture to Micky Mantle last Thursday afternoon have been great.
And the great thing is that Tiger fans are united. People of all races and nationalities a re joining together in salute and forgetting their self-made problems. By bringing home the American League pennant and hopefully the World Series flag, the Tigers are helping to mend a' big Detroit problem.
And they're making a lot of long-time Tiger standbys tearfully happy. Bless you, Bengals,

'IF IT FITZ
The blue serge tourniquet Py JIM FITZGERALD
What got me thinking about tight pants was this phone call from my son in the fifth grade,
"You or Mother better come to school and get me," he said, "I split my pants playing football."
"Ok" I agreed, "where will I find you?"
"Out in front with my back to the wall," he said.
It is no wonder this kid breaks through his pants all the time. They are so tight they get bumpy when he gets goose pimples. That's the way pants are made today.
"Whatever happened to thereat pleat and the d r a p e shape? When's the last time you saw a baggy seat of serge? I know a man who ate a hot dog with his right hand in his pocket. When he finished eating, he couldn't get his hand out. He had to diet to get people to stop calling him Lefty.
Tight pants present different problems for different ages.
For youngsters, i t 's getting into them. The pantlegs are made for legs without knees. It was bad enough when a boy couldn't pull them on over his shoes, and then his socks. But now a kid doesn't dare wear polka-dot underwear without first sandpapering the polka-dots.
We old crocks don't have it that tight in the legs. But let 's get to the seat of the problem. Most men carry their wallets In their left hip pocket. And most men must carry 142 credit cards to feel secure (If you leave them home, your wife might find them). Unless a man is built with nothing to sit on, the wallet produces a bulge bordering on deformity. If another cheek were involved, an apt description would be that he has bitten off more tobacco than he can chew. The average tight-panted, fat-walleted man needn't worry about getting hit by a car while walking down a dark road. He can hang a lantern from his rear pocket.
Whenever anyone points out the obvious insanities c o m m o n to Women's fashions, some gal a l ways says, "Yeah, butwhodoyou think d e s i g n s most f e m a l e clothes-men!" She means Mr Mildred or Beau Bruce, darling,
but whatever doubt might be cast upon gender still doesn't subtract from the satisfaction it gives a matron to blame her S h i r l e y Temple dress and fullback shoes on some stupid man.
So if anyone has evidence that some females, even baritones, are responsible for taking the sag out of my slacks, I'd like to hear about it. Thenewswon'tincrease my comfort but it will help me to understand. If women designers are choking men with fabric to get revenge for what men designers do to women, I don't blame them. For instance, the
/ /
man who invented stretch slacks that stretch beyond size 10 should be stretched to death, and I'd help pull.
But if It's not women, and I'm afraid It 's not, how could men do this to men? It 's not just the tight pants. Lately there's been a big hurrah about turtleneck shirts because they allow a guy to forget his necktie. Big deal, I'm all for junking ties but what's so great about a c o l l a r that scratches my chins and makes me look like a YMCA attendant?
And then therearetheseKehru jackets which also clutch at a guy's chins while buttoning to his

knees. Around his neck he hangs a cross made of scrap iron sent back from Japan._ And on his feet are stretch socles reaching to his thighs. The whole idea is to bind a man completely, for fear a small part of him might jiggle. Which, in cases such as mine, Is similar to wrapping a mound of jello for mailing.
I call it tourniquet styling. Hart, Schaffner and Marx are afraid men may bleed to death in this cruel world so they've fixed it so we no longer get dressed in the morning.
We get bandaged.

directions needed for welfare programs By LESTER J. ALLEN
State Representative 88th District
The press media around the state have been full of stories about demands for increased funds for persons receiving ADC welfare - assistance. This new
. push, supposedly for extra money ''for new clothes, could 'cost the
state over $6 million for the more than 100,000 children on ADC. •,
The implication in these demands is that the state is not doing enough for destitute persons, and allowing fatherless children to freeze on the way to school because they have inadequate clothing. These implications are not true; Michigan is doing all it can with available revenue for those in need of welfare. The Legislature this
year is going to spend $437 million on, welfare. ADC cases in a 10 month period last fall and early this year increased some 9,500 cases. Each ADC
\ case represents an average of 4.1 persons and costs an average of $185.85 each month. Statewide, the ADC caseload is spiraling at a rate of 800 c'ases per month, and since Jan. 1 direct relief support has skyrocketed by 70 per cent.
Michigan is meeting its commitments in social welfare, but the supply of money is not limitless. The simple fact is that the taxpayers of Michigan cannot give everybody everything they want. Welfare recipients are not the only ones pressing the state for additional funds. We are also hearing anguished cries that we must supply more state funds for education and all other areas of
state spending. The Legislature has to set priorities and budgets in the face of these conflicting demands, and we should live within these budgets.
THE LEGISLATURE would also like to do much more for education in our state, but we are doing as much as possible with existing resources. The question of priorities comes up again. It is more important, for instance, to provide new clothes for ADC children than to build more and better schools in which tp educate t'hem? All of us must realize that the taxpayer's pocket is not bottomless, so we might as well buckle down and live within our means. ' '
Mounting welfare rolls during an ear of unprecendented national prosperity should be the tip-off that d r a s t i c action is
needed to redirect our welfare programs. A to t a l reappraisal and restructuring of the welfare system is n e c e s s a r y with emphasis shifted from hand-outs to helping hands. The basic philosophy behind our welfare programs should be that assistance will be given to allow the recipient to become self supporting. But instead of reducing welfare rolls, present programs perpetuate and enlarge them. The current system also tends to completely destroy and thwart initiative.
The organization of the welfare system needs to be revamped. The e v e r - increasing
and changing federal programs and regulations often conflict with or overlap state efforts. In some cases there is no coordination of decision-making. The state, for Instance, can be held accountable for part or all of the cost of a decision made at the county level or the federal level. There have been charges that the federal establishment is recruiting welfare clients for the state and county governments to support. There are also allegations that anti-poverty funds are being* fed into militant welfare organizations to spur agitation for more hand-outs.

our thinking on how welfare dollars are spent Is also essential. The system we operate under now discourages self-improvement on the part of welfare recipients. There are indications of widespread abuse by recipients of the assistance they receive. There reportedly are cases where welfare funds have been used to buy totally unnecessary luxuries, such as color televisions. There have been cases of men living with welfare recipients and eating up the allot- * ment intended to support children. ADC m o t h e r s are encouraged to resist efforts to enroll them in training programs because of fear of losing part of their gove rnmen t check. Another major point of contention is whether the ADC system also works to promote illegitimacy by offering increased support for more fatherless children.
The welfare programs of this county, especially national programs, are ineffective, wasteful
When the teacher believes the student can't learn, chances are good he won't. Educators have found this to be true, and are doing something about it, according to Rober t Sternberg, educational consultant for the Michigan Department of Education.
Sternberg associates the effects of such "self-prophesying" with past methods of teaching. "Under the traditional methods of educa t ing youngsters," he says, "the teacher sometimes became convinced some of her students could not learn. It didn't take too long to convince these students that she was right. And when they fell behind in class and lost interest in school, the teacher said, 'See, my prophecy was correct.' " professional educators became concerned with the drooout of students. They found" that about 30 per cent left school at age 16, the minimum age allowed by law, and another 20 per cent had lost interest in school although they remained enrolled. Intensive Investigation uneoyered^ the need.,for a new approach to education. , "" ' '
EMPHASIS IS I n c r e a s i n g l y placed on "output" rather than "input" factors. Degrees held "by teachers,.accreditation, student-teacher ratio, tax base per child, formerly were used to gauge effectiveness of a school district.
"Output" considerations 1 n -elude: what a student believes, how he behaves, contributions he make to society, how he relates to his environment. Sternberg notes that this calls for a "higher discrimination" of teaching skills with less "drowning of the student in information," and more emphasis on the "whole person." The student must be motivated, taught to think for himself, shown that the information 'has a direct bearing on his life and his present 'and fu tu r e well-being, Sternberg points out.
This brings the educator into a whole new concept of learning. He must develop in the student a personal meaning for knowledge. This may involve' first establishing confidence in the student that he is able to learn. It may involve satisfying physical deprivations: a hungry child has little appetite for learning arithmetic. It has led to the "Community School" Idea and has had an effect on every phase of education: curricula,methodsof teaching, flexible scheduling, coop p r o g r a m s , cultural camp-outs, etc.
Teachers and administrators have to adjust to the new em
phasis on total learning. Many encounter difficulty in making the adjustment. The older teacher who uses the traditional method of asking students to repeat what she p r e v i o u s l y told them may be unable to alter her approach . Administrators must motivate their staffs by setting examples rather than dictate new methods, Sternberg believes.
RESULTS OF THE new approach are startling. A feder-

ally-sponsored project in Paw Paw recently established a camp for 54 youngsters with failing grades: 18 from elementary grades, 18 from junior high and 18 from senior high schools. They reported to the school each morning and wer(e bussed to camp. The only difference between regular classes and camp, said Sternberg, was, "The students were told they were able to learn and were shown that somebody cared."
By the end of the first marking period almost one-third of these students made the honor role.
Numerous projects are being conducted in the state. All are totally s u p p o r t e d by federal funds. More projects are ready but must be postponed until additional financing is available.
This new approach to education places much responsibility upon teachers and demands a high level of professionalism. An equal responsibility is placed upon school boards to develop ways to resolve differences which have pre
viously—resulted in teacher strikes.
A system of grievance and negotiation1 must be developed which will allow teachers to retain the dignity of professionals, yet assure their freedom to bargain for economic gains. Unless both school systems and teachers maintain this level of operation, students will suffer.
