We doubt that the year. 1970. was really as bad as represented &lt;o
us In the various news media, which, in our opinion, often gave a
badly, distorted picture of the overall events.

itacJal intolerance is still a problem. Just a* It has been for the past
century and will be for years to come. Toleration is something that
cannot be controlled passing a taw. The problem of instituting and
properly enforcing equal civil rights for all is difficult enough but is
really simple compared to correcting for the tack of human* sensi­
tivity that is the keystone supporting our arch of Intolerance.
We do not agree, however, with those wlw maintain that no

stretches buck through the past half century, some really startling
progress has been made. Nowhere the ideal amount, we agree. But
docs anyone have the answer oaoto how best to persuade a person
to change his attitude toward certain races from an Intolerant to a
passing a law. But we believe that attitudes are slowly changing—
and in the right direction.

Recently we came across this quotation from Carl Sandburg,
wlrlch. I believe, has something In it for all of us:
"For we know when a Nation goes down
and never comes back
"When a society or a civilization perishes
one condition may always be found
"They forget where they came from
•They loot sight of what brought them along.”

There eras a business slump, although In comparison with Use
depression of the 1930's or even the recession of the mid-1950s,
the worst of 1970 would be classed as a rather prosperous year.
There were no significant bank failures, no break In wage rates
and the grass national product increased. Probably the moat distutbing factor of the past twelve months was a rise In llv.ng coats
at a lime when employment was on the decline. Indicating that the
danger of uncontrolled inflation may be something more than a
vague threat. If Hint situation cannot be brought under control
on voluntary action between tabor and management, it means tluit
the Federal Government will have to step in with a broad range of
wage and price controls
Those of us who lived llirough the wage and price freeze cf World
War II. do not look forward to this with any degree of happiness.
A P.dentl Wage and Price control sounds easy and effie’ent but is
actually a complicated procedure that satisfies no one and leads to a
seemingly endless maze of red tape. Federal controls of Ihta sort
solve nothing and ahould be undertaken only wlien it Is evident tluit
everything else lias failed.

Vietnam I* still a .iieadacho. ,8nd will continue to be for months
to come. Untaaa the United States is willing to completely renege
on any responsibility and coonenr for the men In the Armed Forces,
there simply cannot be the type of sudden and complete withdrawal
that many appear to advocate
Even Sen. J. William Fulbright, the leading Senate "Dove” (who,
Incidentally, hr as responsible as anyone lor our combat troops being
sent there in targe numbers) has never followed up hta plea for a
quick withdrawal with a practical plan for accomplishing this In
a manner that would insure adequate protection to our troops during
the complicated process of "pulling out.” Much more is involved
Uian merely marching truojw to awaiting transports.

To emphasise by understatement, 19TQ was not an untroubled year
either on the domestic or the international fronta-’Yet. there were
no fresh outbreaks of warfare. Even In the feverish mld-East. Ute
various contending parties were exhibiting signs of a "reluctant
willingness" to explore the possibilities of peaceful settlements. At
present, there is no great reason for optimism However, so long
us Ute nations involved are willing U&gt; talk, there is hope. War begins

These are uneasy times.
There are major concerns. About
pollution. About safety. About the
economy. About your hard-earned
dollar. We know.
For the past 10 years Chevrolet
research people have questioned
thousands of people on every subject
from rising taxes to the size of the

We’ve found that price and

quality have become tremendously
important.
Your car has to work. It has to
last. And each new model must have
more built-in value.
At Chevrolet, we understand.

Caprice. The biggest, most luxurious
Chevrolet ever. A complete change.

Bigness in itself is nothing.
But if it allows you to lengthen the
distance between the front and rear
wheels (which we did), then you’ve got
something.
You've got a smoother ride.
THb idea in the 1971 Caprice was to
give you the looks and comfort of a
'
six- or seven-thousand-dollar car.
without asking you to pay anywhere near
that much for it. And above all, to build
in as much dependability and security
as possible.
So we changed the body structure
for 1971, too, We made it stronger. And
we made it quieter by putting a double
layer of steel in the roof.
.
Caprice, as you can see below, is a
lot of luxury at a Chevrolet price.

It wasnY

Before building Vega, we read
everything we could get our hands on
about little cars. We talked to owners.
We studied little cars up one side and
down the other and, literally, tore them
apart. We found out what made then)
tick, or why they didn’t tick.
What ticked were gas economy and
dependability. What didn’t were
—
underpowered engines, cramped quarters
and getting blown around in the wind.
. In our little Vega, everything ticks.
It’s'not just another Uttlecar. You
didn’t want that. It’s one little car
that does everything well.

DO YOU KNOW THE
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
LOW-COST INSURANCE
AND CHEAP INSURANCE?
Buying cheap insurance for your home or car
is I ike-buying a cheap parachute.
By the time you find the holes, it's
too late to do anything about it.
But you don't wont to pay too much
for your insurance protection, either.
That's why smart people buy insurance
for home, car or business through an
independent insurance agent.
Because he represents several companies, he
can shop around to find the best insurance
for you at a fair price. What's more, he's on
your side when it comes takfast, fair
settlement of all claims.
Remember — there's no such thing as
bargain-basement insurance.
This symbol is your assurance that
we are professional independent agents.

With a!F the bad news— murder, robbery, ripe, dope, bombings,
arson, muggings. etc, etc.—being dished up to us dally by the maw
m-dla, we Americana are In danger of becoming a nation of new*
"neurotics" bowed down by the weight and knowledge of all the
crime bring committed and very much unaware of all the many fine
plus things that art still a part of the American scene.

• Take statistics, for example. Every minute &lt;or la It every few
aeccndai figure* allow that some sort of crime, major or minor, la
bring committed In this land of our*. That sounds and Is bad and
U n reminder that the fight pgalnat crime must be a continuing
Frees*. But that 1* cnly a part of the picture. Our population here
In the United States lias reached or is approaching the two hundred
million mark Thus, In describing the crime picture it Is equally
accurate to say that, at any one Instant ibe it one minute or few
seconds for each peison guilty of a major or minor crime, one
million, nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand.'nine hundred and
ninety-nine people are going about their budness in a noimally
peacelul manner. Keep this In mind next time alarm ng crime sta­
tistics are thrown at you. There Is really still a lol of good in this
mnrvelou.* old country of oura.

As a nutter of fact, crime news Is still b'g new* bemuse. In the
overall picture. It la the exception rather than the rule. The classic
description of what is news gees back to the succinct description
of that old time editor who told his cub reporter: "If a dog bites a
man. that isn't news; If a man bite* a dog. that Is news." Hie "man
bites dog," theory I* still the "bread and btftter" standard of news
reporting to this vejy day. But we wonder. In this complicated, fast
moving modern age of ours, isn't it time for.the media to reach for
a men- objective standard In an effort to present a less distorted over­
all picture of world events? Bad news has and is being so grossly
overemphasized. in our opinion, that Ute multitude of good-and
constructive events, commonplace In every community throughout
our land, now have a very positive new* italtie that people would
welcome.
.
Personally, we tire not about to don "sack cloth and ashes"
because sections of the war stones In South Viet Nam have been
subjected to defoliating procedures. If this was done, in an effort to
help protect American soldiers over tliere from murderous sniper
lire &gt;and beyond question, this waa Hie reason i then what is the
complaint? There can be complete disagreement as to whether the
United States was right or wrong in attempting to assist the South
Vietnamese in resisting communist aggression. But the fact is, we
an- there and U^T^oldierx (or at least tht big majority of themi
went there in good faith to serve their country. That being llw case.
Why should they be subjected to unnecessary dangers?

Right now. the United States and South Viet Nam are cooperating
to defoliate marijuana fields in an effort lo control a problem that is
considered a Uireat to the annlc* of both nation*. Fire, of course, will
be used iiere in place of chemicals but the end result will be much
the same. Defoliation to control the- marijuana liireat will undoubt­
edly appeal lo mahy of thoor same people who have objected to
defoliation for the purpose cf saying American Ilves and to expose
enemy supply lines We can sympathize with President Robben W. Fleming in his
opposition to a proposed formation of a police squad which would
have authority to investigate campuses along with drugs and organ­
ized crime. In fact, most alumni of the University would lute to aee
Ulis come to pass except as a last resort.
In n statement, President Fleming was quoted os saying words
to the effect that. "It Is Important to express alarm at the rising
crime and ding use rate but a free society must always approach
with reluctance a system which calls upon Ila members to spy upon
one another."
All the above Is true. However, there doe* come a time when
exprerricii* of alarm and regret ore not enougli Thus, one might be
{wrdiined for asking Dr. Fleming what he and his administration
plan as an alternative course to combat problems that are acute
and alarming. A campus Is definitely not an isolated spot free from
all the law* of Ood and man. Rather it I*, at least In the minds of
moat people whose tax dollar* help keep these Institutions solvent,
a ptace where high school and college graduates go for advanced
training in the arts and sciences in order to better and more usefully
sene themselves and the society which made these institutions
possible. Thus a certain amount of discipline, guidance and stand­
ards are definitely in order.
We agree Unit colleges and universities have suffered during these
past year* from a bad press Uvat has distorted the overall picture
The violent trouble makers have been In small minority and usually
are in the background when real trouble occur*. Neverthele**, one

th* nuggetlicn that Halting*

by sarins election expense.
He suggested that an ordi­
nance be adopted extending
the terms of aldermen lo four
rather than two years. The
terms of the present aidermen

which would have expired next

ed until the next election. The

time. Under the present setup,

each ward each Spring.
Under the law, all one
year term* of office become

The chief danger of ciga­

— Is partly reversible within
an astonishingly short time:
this Inexplicable fact Itself
contribute* to the enigma of
cigarette smoke.

The Michigan Heart Associ•ation says that cigarette
smoking bring* about a "con­
sistently higher risk of death
or serious illness from a num­
ber of causes."

Heart Association says, "40year-old men. smoking a pack
n day, will lose an average of
five year* of their life spans.
A recent comparison of men
aged 40-49, of similar back­
grounds, showed that sn/Iker*
as compared with non­

three times as many heart
attacks, four times as many
fatal heart attacks and had
more than three time* as
many total deaths from all
causes. This was In 10 year*.

The Michigan Heart Associ­

cite* the following habits and
medical condition* as risk fac­
tor* associated with an In­
creased danger of heart at­
tack: smoking, physical indo­
lence, overweight, elevated
blood pressure and elevated
level of blood cholesterol.
An indication of the deadli­

that when cigarette smoking
is one of three risk factors,
the danger is always higher
than for a combination ot
three other risk factor*. Risk*
rise very sharply for person*

Banner Arrives Day Early |
With thia issue. The Hastings Banner is being pub­
lished one day earlier than it has in the past, reaching
more than 4,100 households in Barry County on Wednes­
day instead of on Thursday.
With this earlier publication, it is hoped that The
Banner will provide i.s subscribers and readers with even
more services than in the past, bringing more current
local sports coverage, local news of ■IF'communities and
from all governmental levels.
The Banner, with the earlier publication, will provide
its readers with greater opportunities to take advantage
of Hastings and Barry County merchants' mid-week
sales and other promotions.
The format and page layout of Barry County's Pioneer
Publication has been revamped to provide for easier
■ reading and better continuity, and the publiahera will
continue their endeavors to bring you the finest local
coverage of news, events and other happenings in the

so you can fly in the United States and around the world with just one
travel card. You can use your muter charge at a third of a million other
businesses while you travel, too — at oil companies, motels, hotels,
restaurants, stores, car rentals. Why, master charge is also good for

DO YOU KNOW THE
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
LOW-COST INSURANCE
AND CHEAP INSURANCE?
Buying cheap- insurance for your home or car
is like buying o €heap parachute.
By the time you find the holes, it's
too late to do anything about it.
But you don't want to pay too much
for your insurance protection, either.
That’s why smart people buy insurance
for home, cor or business through on
independent insurance agent.
Because he represents several companies, he
can shop around to find the best insurance
for you ot a fair price. Whot's more, he's on
your side when it comes to fast, fair
settlement of all claims.
' Remember — there's no such thing as
.
bargain-basement insurance.
This symbol is your assurance that
we are professional independent agents.

When you
compare our Duster
to their Vega, you'll see
what "Coming Through"
Is all about. Because
Duller not only has more
room, more trunk, bigger
tires and brakes, and more
power than Vega; It's still as
easy on gas as it is on your
budget. The big difference
between Duster and Vega? It'i
not lhe price. And that's what
coming through is all about.

BOUTH KALAMO
PENTECOSTAL.,

if ever, a man’s job became obsolete, it was this fellow's. And what a job it was. He learned
everything first, then imparted the news to others. If he had a good Rrtmory, he was usually tha
best informed man in town. Who else read every release and then shouted it all over town? He
also was the principal advertising medium for the tradespeople and shopkeepers. He announced
their products, services and special sales.
And in most communities the town crier reminded men of the approach of the Sabbath, urg­
ing them to be present for worship at ths appointed hour in the churches of the community.
The newspaper made the town crier a has-been. It has taken over all his functions and per­
formed them more efficiently. That includes reminding men of the day of worship, and, through
advertisements such as this, urging us to worship.

NARROW HEEL
Of course you have.
Everyone has a nar­
row heel—that’s how
the foot is shaped.
Then where did the
expression "narrow
heel” comb from?
What you really
mean is. "I want a
good, snug shoe that
has the workmanship
to support all around
my foot".
■hoes fake a little
more time and ma­
terial to make, and
a better grade of ma­
terial. That is how
they make a
row” heel.
That’s why they
cost a little more.
And they're worth
the difference be­
cause a good shoe
retains shape and
good looks longer.
And you enjoy them
more because they’re
comfortable. All of
dur shoes have* "nar­
row heelJ*’. Come in,
try them on and see

Coll your insurance man. Right now.
Tell him you want to know how to file a claim
If he tells you to "Gill or write the Claims
Department." you're In trouble. That means he
probably works only as a salesman for an insurance
company and isn't interested in you or your claim.

But if he says. ’TH help you do’it." chances
□re you have an independent agent who displays the
symbol below. It means he works for you. And repre­
sents you in dealing with the insurance company.

And that often represents the difference be­
tween fast, fair payment of a claim and just — a

the same mold aa hi* d'stinguished grandfather, the* late Vernon J.
Brown who remained an Independent, plain-spoken editor while

Jim recently aborted considerable abuse from some of hl* legis­
lative roikwguea for his part in forcing a reconsideration and
rejection of a Dental Insurance scheme that would have provided
free dental service to member* and their families at public expense.
The plan almost got by.
Many member* of the House mud have questioned the propriety
of this action—especially at a Ume when Michigan government is in
financial trouble—but Jim Brown was one oKthe few who acted
promptly to kill the plan. He filed a lawsuit questioning whether the
proposal had been adopted legally The threat of this lawsuit com­
bined with the public outcry against the boondoggle prompted the
House to kill Uie plan.
Naturally. Jim has had to aiworb some personal abure for thia
action on the part of legislator* who wanted Ute State to pay their
denial bills
Our belief U that his grandfaUier faced with a similar situation
would have reacted In the same way. Vern wa.-. not always personally
popular with hl* colleague* but he had their respect and the respect
of the public—and II is the public the legislature is supposed to serve
—at least In theory.

Although George Washington* birthday was officially celebrated
more than a week ago. the date actually fell on thl* Monday. Feb 22
The Idea of course, was to pick a compromise date with that of
Lincoln's birthday on Feb. 11 ao that both could be celebrated al the
tame lime, thus making possible a long weekend for millions of
people The scheme la admittedly practical even though historically
inaccurate.
Washington was bom to an aristocratic family of moderate drcumstaiicea and IJncoln WM a child of the American frontier, yet
there are several points of fliadarlly between these two great Ameri­
can*. Both were tall and slender. Esch weighed In U*e prime of life
about IM pounds. • Both wsra-phyalrally powerful and were superior
fiertormcra In Ute athletic contests of their respective eras. Both men
were skilled surveyors and found the knowledge gained hare useful
in connection with their later careers Washington with but limited
military experience was faced with the responsibility of organizing and
directing a Continental army to face Ute military might of England
Lincoln, on assuming the presidency, was soon fared with the task
of directing the expansion of a long neglected Federal Army to
oppose the Confederacy. Washington as the Flrat President of the
United State* had to proceed along an unchartcred road In directing
the course of the new nation since there were no p**t actions to sene
as guide IJncoln a* Uw head of * nation split by a Civil War also
was forced to take setions for which there were no precedent*. He,
too. had to use his own best judgment and improvise as he went
along. Both men had to absorb bitter abuse by highly critical seg­
ments of tiie pres* Washington through his ability as a lewder and
the confidence he Inspired, was the factor that held the Colonies
together during the long and dismal years of the Revolution. Like­
wise It wa* the personality of Lincoln and his genius for dealing with
people that held an often badly divided North together during the
bitter year* of the Civil War.
History presented each man with a unique aituatlon and both
Washington and Lincoln had the qualities of character and courage
to meet the challenge.

With the Hastings Centennial fast approaching. It might be well
to recall once again, that our city derived Its name from Eurotaa P.
Hastings. a Detroit banker who invested tn a tract known a* “The
Barry County Seat Purchase.“ To him. It was a real estate speculatlon and there is no record that he ever visited the arts. Probably
not. because st the time, there was no way ot getting here by stage
coach and Hastings was no woodsman. But on July 36. 1818. the
record shows that he sold the tract to Philo A Dibble. Lansing Kings­
bury and Cornelius Kendall for MMO 00. which, it is safe to assume,
was a figure that included at least a moderate profit
Hastings, during ha career was a respected banker, noted far
many generous action* and served the state as auditor general tn a
very turbulent eta He was a member of the First Presbyterian
. Church of Detroit and for several years served as a Ruling Elder
Although In no sense a ’headliner." Hartlrgp was for many year* a
ratable and ureful citisen during Michigan's formative years.

The human body is an efficient organism. It ran* like clock:
work with each vital pert doing it* job. When one of thes*
part* breaks down or a foreign substance attack*, the body
reacts to the blow in a way all Its own. Chemicals In the dis­
-eased area-begin immediately to repair the break. Often
these are not enough and chemical* from other part* of the
body are utilized. When this happens a chemical imbalance
is caused. Your doctor examine* you to determine the
amount and type of chemicals involved. He may feel It nec­
essary to add'chemical* to your system in order to defeat
the disease... this is a prescription. By hl* diagnosis he
can determine whlth chemicals will do you the most good.
Some sy«tem» are stronger or better equipped to handle
disease. They require les* medication. Others need more
outside help. Each person is different. That is why you
should never use another's proscription nor allow someone
else to use yours.

For the highest pharmaceutical standards, low prices
consistent with quality and the personal attention you
can always depend upon, tiring your prescriptions to

RAVE REVIEWS.
It U difficult to imagine surviving a mid-winter around here
without the enthralling pleasure of attending one of Herb Moyer's
operetta* which are always to beautifully preeented that one
run* out of superlative* in describing each production. (This
year. The King and I).
It te alto amazing that to many folk* in curroundlog areas feel
the tame way- Thte te evident each night Of the three perform­
ance* a* out-of-towner* appear, many having grown-up here.
For this reason It might be an Intriguing idea to have a
student in charge of a special guest &gt;Ut and the number of signa­
ture* from away would show a surprising number. Friday 1* the
favorite night for these spec la ton because often they visit friends
and relative* over the weekend. That ** what the Ed Barrett
family of NUea did when they atayed overnight with his sister,
the Burnell Larkes. after the final curtain call of the 1971 season.

Howard Ferris presided aa chairman and Mrs Racell Blanton as
secretary recorded the proceedings. (Other board members are.
Robert Casey, Fred Smith. Walter Boys, Victor Eckardl and
Mrs Richard Cookl,
It was Interesting to recall that it was more than ten yean
ago that County Extension Director Art Staeby. 4-H Leader Bill
Kirkpatrick. Home Ec. Supervisor Martha Kuhn, and many
other concerned person* realized the need for u suable bunding,
and the logical location would be. the Barry County Fairground.
Money was contributed by businesses and private individuals and
by 1960 the Community Building became a reality. Over the years
the debt Involved in *uah a project hue been paid off except for
approximately a Iban of *3,000 from llie Home Ec. ExUm.-don

If he tells you to "Coll or write the Claims
Deportment." you're in trouble. That means he
probably works only os a salesman for on insurance
company and isn't interested in you or your claim.
Bbt if he says. "I'll help you do it." chances
ore you hove on independent agent who displays the
symbol below. It moons he works for you. And repre­
sents you in dealing with the insurance company.

And that often represents the difference be­
tween fast, fair payment of a claim and just — a
payment.
Make the test. If your insurance man can’t
pass, switch your insurance fast.

You’re Invited
AU of us at one time or another haveJwd to wrestle with budgets
and cut and trim to make expenditures realistic tn terms of resources
available. Michigan is now tn that aort of bind. It U obvious that the
State cannot mewl all the demands being made for financial assist­
ance and that there will even have to be reduction* in the support
of important and highly favored area*, such as education The big
urdverdllcs. especially, may trel the pinch. This will, undoubtedly,
cause acene modification in their plana fur growth and expansion
However. In view of what has been happening on campuses during
the part several yeara. n might be a good time for these larger tasUtuUon* at learning to examine themselves and determine whether
or not some of their plana and procedures could be modified and
revised for the good of aU concerned.
A quote worthy of repealing: There Is nothing wrong with the
ungcr generation that becoming a taxpayer wont cure.’

Air pollution 1* nothing now and lias L*en with u* longer than we
think. Take Hastings In 1871. for example. Al that time there was not
a foot of paved road or a bit of curb and gutter within the city limits.
During spells of dry weather, especially during the summer months,
clouds of dual were thrown up whenever a iuiree drawn carriage
passed by—and Hastings waa a busy UtUc trading center al that time.
So. dust became an accepted nuisance. Much later and tn an attempt
to lick Uie dust problem, the city idred some “spring wagons” to
patrol Uie street* sprinkling streams of waler from wooden tauks.
Thte was better titan nothing-although not much. The thin film of
water quickly soaked into the parched surface and clouds of dust
rose again aa traffic moved along Ute streets In 1871. of course, there
were not even any spring wagons.
During Use cold months, homes were heated with wood—a few.
probably with soft coal The smoke nuisance became something very
~ real. allhotrth Jt was undoubtedly accepted then as a necessary evil.
In 1971. with mart homes tested by ga*. oil or even electricity, the
smoke nuteance ha* been eliminated from residential area* and thl*
has tended to focus attention on industrial offenders
Thus nuisances from *moke and dust an nothing new. Back then
these things were accepted aa nrrraesry mis In the modern point
view, they are nuisance problem* dangerous to the environment,
that can and should be *c*ved

the end of the month brought
roaring winds but no storm

Poor visibility closed the

Little wind damage was re­

Drunken driver* are the greatest single source of traffic accidents.
Here is an area where Transportation Secretary Volpe might take
some strong action with immediate effect by pushing far a more
realistic level allowable in alcoholic content In the blood than moat
state* now tolerate.
A Michigan legislator. Senator James O. Fleming of Jackson Ims
taken a step In this direction by introducing a bill aimed at reducing
the allowable level of alcohol in the blood from the present 15
per cent to ten per cent.
Hie only question in regard to Ben. Fleming's bill is whether or
not It goes far enough to be effective, even though it would be an
improvement on the present law.
Consider for a minute what the 10 per cent level really means. To
reach the 10 per cent level a man weighing 150 pound* would have
to down Are drink* each containing an ounce of 80-proof alcohol
within one hour and on an empty stomach at that!
Under Firming■» proposed law the levels used for defining
-impaired" driving would be reduced from the present 10 to 15 per
cent to 7 to 10 per cent. That. too. to an improvement But even with
these much more stringent limit* in effect, the average drinker who
imbibed three to four one ounce drinks within sixty minutes on an
f empty stomach could correctly be classified dangerous rather than
-qterely impaired in regard to driving ability, even under normal traffic
condition*.

"OLD FASHIONED"
COMFORT!

Everyone should own
a really comfortable bed
and o truly good pair of
shoes — for you -ore in
one or the other most of
your life. The average
individual takes about
15.000 steps a day. If
you weigh 150 pounds,
th/! feet and nervous
system absorb nearly
2.250.000 pressure lbs.

Moreover, if you ore
o woman shopper, you
will overage 8 miles a
day. A sales girl aver­
ages 8 miles, a police­
men on beat goes 14
miles, a mailmen 22
miles, and an overage 7
to 10 year old youngster
travels about 12 miles a
doy.

These facts tend to,
point out that no item
of clothing needs more
careful selection thon a
pair of shoes. Although
virtually all children
hove perfect feet at
birth, by 10 years of age
50 percent hove foot
defects. When feet are
fully developed by the
age of 20, the alarming
mark of 80 percent foot
defects is reached.
.
Doctors tell us that a
great deal — possibly
most of this trouble is
caused by shoes thot
don't fit. We can't sell
you the comfortable bod,
however, we con fit you
to a truly good pair of
shoes.

(This »as the Invocation given at the Centennial Banquet.
March 11, by Rev. Michael Anton of Grace luitheran Church.&gt;
As we observe and celebrate one hundred years of Incorpurat. n
as a community. Lord, the only appropriate way to bet In 1* by
saying a loud and fervent thank-you for a century of Your blex,Ings
We are grateful for the pioneers a ho planted the seeds of cur
community, and for the persons who have exercised the necessary
leadership through the years to build and develop our town. We
are grateful for the growth of industry which has provided em­
ployment for many. We are grateful for a school system whkh
offers a large number of teachers erm milled to 'die high goal of
helping our citizens. young and old alike, to search out and lire
out the truth
We thank You for the merchants who try to serve our need*
and contribute to a pouuve image of Hastings We thank You for
the medical persemnei. the medical facilities and resources which
attempt to promote our good health. We thank You for the num­
ber of religious groups which point us to the great need for Your
Spun and to the need for us to be more .ntereated in the well ar*
of our citizens We are grateful for the guidance and protecLcn
offered by our city government, police and fire departments
And we are filled with special gratitude for the citizens who
have been and are concerned with the quality of life in Hastlnc
those who endeavor to establish a freer, more responsible and
more charitable community.
Many, many things to be thankful for. Lord, and not enough
space and time to remember or say them all. But on a day and
In a year this significant. we would be remiss in saying thanks
and that's all. Because »e know. Lord, we have failures and short­
coming* In our tosn of Hastings.
For the hatred and prejudice towards perron* of other natlonahtlM, creeds and lacas. for the failure of adults to under­
stand youth. for the failure of youth to understand adults, for
those city leader* who use their positions to promote their vested
interests instead of serving the community, for the bitter crlIl­
eum* we hurl at each other, for the destruction and pollution of
the environment You have given us. and for the lack of genuine
Interest and concern In Improving our community for all ages, we
ask Your forgiveness and mercy, Lord.
Help us enjoy this centennial banquet and help u* enjoy every
centennial celebration. But in the midst of the hoopla, make this
year a year of renewal among us. As we look at the past and re­
vive it. make ui thankful and sorry simultaneously. But as de t
look at the future, open our minds to the value Of every human
being who Ilves among us. help us treat people as person? and ’
not as census figures Open our hearts to be sincerely concerned^
about the quality of life around us.
\
Break through the crust of tradition and arouse us to the need ’
for change wlien it U necessary and make us alert to the Import­
ance of the Ideas and thoughts of all our citizens. be they young
or old. rich or poor. Break down the barriers that stand between
Us and the walls that hem us in. and unite us together a* a
community of citizen* with mutual trust and respect, that the
next 100 years may be years of improvement and growth for the
people who are Hastings Amen

DO YOU KNOW THE
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
LOW-COST INSURANCE
AND CHEAP INSURANCE?
Buying chcop insuronce’ for your home or co;
is like buying a cheap parachute,
the time you find the holes, it’s
too late to do anything about if.
But you don’t want to pay too much
for your insuronce protection, either.
That’s why smart people buy insurance
for home, cor or business through an
independent insurance agent.
Because he represents several companies. I
can shop around to Find the best insurance
for you at a fair price. What’s more, he'
your side when if comes to fosf. fair
settlement of oil claims.
Remember — there’s no such thing as
bargain basement insurance
This symbol is your assurance that
we are professional independent agents

SHOD
Many common expre«sions hove come out
of th* »hoe butineu. ”lf
the shoe fit*, wear it”.
"Discarded Kke an old
shoe", "Straight loc*d",
and many more. But the
moit famous it prob­
ably "Slip Shod". Ever
thought about that ex­
pression and what it
means?

Bock in the days when
high - buttoned shoes
gave way to slip-ons.
shoe manufacturers hod
a problem making a shoe
that would hug the heel
properly, so os not to
slip. They later found
that they hod to moke
it on a tbinlost. but not
so tight os to bind.
They discovered they hod
to take o -little more
time and material to
moke it hug the heel
comfortably. That's why
you find the so-colled
"narrow heel" in only
the better shoes of to­
day. It's too expensive a
feature to put into cheap
shoes.
'
All our shoes have a
comfortable heel that
won't slip. Come in and
try them*on. You'll sec
what we mean.

Soo htau eooa. Putting It oW could cost you mor* than a cut-rat*
policy can mv* you In a lifetime.

Howe of Hastings; Ruth HanUl-

The flames of excitement are being fanned with
anticipation of The Banner's new publication and staff
members are girding for the task of converting 115 yean
of "hot metal” production into a sihgie new process of
modern offset printing.
Throughout the shop there's an intense atmosphere
equal to a celebration of "ringing out the old and bring­
ing in the new."
Aimed at putting more "bounce" into The Banner,
next week’s issue will mark the start of a new era of
printing technique* which the Management expects will
vastly improve the quality of advertising, photography
and reproduction in general.
"As we l*am more about offset production, realize
our potential and successfully retrain personnel in this
relatively new field, we expect to sec marked improve­
ment with each passing Issue,*' William (Bill) Cook,
publ'sher, said in assessing the changeover.
"Moreover," he continued, "our new free distribution
will give our advertisers the exposure they require and

enable The Banner to strengthen its service and perform­
ance throughout the Barry County area.''
According to Editor George (Buzz) Youngs. "There
will be an immediate upturn in the quality and amount
of news and photo coverage." Youngs expressed opti­
mism that total circulation will greatly increase the
volume of advertising and thus provide additional edi­
torial space.
The ntwpaper's present circulation of 5,700 will be
boosted to 15,000 commencing with the April
issue.

For Centennial
Queen Contest
Connie Sutton, chairman of
the Jaycee Auxiliary’s Centen­
nial Queen contest, this week
explained that since the Aux­
iliary is a young organization
it Is vitally Important for them
to sponsor and communicate
with the young girls of this
community.
They need to be made more
aware, or at least reminded,
that someone other than their
families care, and to realize is
Individuals that they liave cer­
tain responsibilities to. as well
as privileges, derived from
their city.
"Tills contest I* not a popu­
larity or beauty contest. It Is
one to help promote a girl’s
personality and give her ex­
perience and self confidence In
herself.
"For those who feel this L*
nominating yourself and put­
ting youraelf and personality
on the line, consider this. You
put your personality on the
line every time you meet some­
one.
The Auxiliary hopes more

several months before all the DDT stored
nt various DNR field stations can be in­

the disposal plant. This project adds im­

efforts to purge DDT supplies from the

cover more than 80 different

word arthritis meins inflamma­

the specific treatment for
that type of arthritis."
Th confirm a diagnosis, the
physician may perform several
blood tests and possibly an
analysis of Joint fluid. Often
X-rays are required. In many
instancea. the doctor may need
to observe the patient for a
period of time.
When a program of manage­
ment is decided, it may include
special medications combined
with other measures such as
various types of physical or oc­
cupational therapy.

Want to Lift?
Do It Right
By the time many Michigan
men reach the age of 30. they
have aireaMy "lifted themselvm”
out of the Job market due to
back injuries.
A Mlclilgan Department of
Labor survey of 25 percent of
the compensable injuries In
the state revealed tliat on-lheJob Injuries occur most fre­
quently in the 18-29 age group.
Back injuries suffered In
the process of lifting were
shown to be the leading
problem.
Inasmuch os people with
"bad backs" must limit their
acUritlea, including ways of
earning a living, department
safety consultants offer UUs
advice on how to avoid lifting
injuries In tlw first place:
If an object b too heavy for
you to handle atone—get help.
If the load is within your ca­
pacity, plant your feet firmly
and squat cloce to the object,
gripping it firmly. Then lift by
gradually straightening your
legs while keeping your bock
straight. Leg musclca. not back
muscles, should do the work.
While carrying the toad,
change directions by slowly
shifting your feet, not by
twisting your body.
Safety experts point out that
setting the load down is a cru­
cial step. too. and this opera­
tion should be the reverse of
the lifting procedure, making
use of leg muscles to lower
yourself to a squatting position.

The Most Important Question
You Should Ask
Before You Buy
Insurance
Stands to reason you're better off if
you buy home, car or business insurance
from an agent who represents several
companies. An independent agent. He has
a choke.
That’s why h« esn give you sound.
Impartial advice »bout which policy is
best for you. Aod help speed a fair, fast
ssttlement whosever you have a loss.

So you see buying insurance is really
very simple. You pick the agent. Let him
pick the company.
This symbol is your auursisce that we
are professional independent agents.

�—
By Bert PyUnan
Social Security Agent
Q. Un*t it unfair to count only
aiming* under tlie so-called re­
tirement test? People who are
well-to - do—who liave investnient and other nonwork in­
come—can get their benefits in
full, but people who are not well
off and .nave to work lose bene­
fits aa a result of working
A. The phlla-ophy is that a
worker who has contributed to
U&gt;e program should get benefits
when he retires regardless of
nonwork sources By providing
for the payment of benefits
the amount of hb' income from,
regardless of investment in­
come. social security serve* as
a bare on which other forms of
protection can be built. With­
holding benefits because of In­
come from savings, ,dlvldends.
Interest, insurance and the
like would weaken the Incen­
tive for people to save.
Q. Ha.-. there always been a
limit to how much you could
cam after retirement without
ksilng social security benefits?
A. Yes. But the retirement

test has been changed by
Congresr nine tunes to keep
pace with Increased benefits
and higher earnings levels
Each time It has been made
more liberal. For example, in
the original Social Security
Act. no. benefits were payable
it a person had any regular
employment. In a 1939 change,
a beneficiary war allowed to
earn &gt;14 99 a month and still
get benefits. In 1950, this was
upped to 150 a month. The la­
tent liberalization was in 1967.
Q. I am a 50 year old dis­
abled widow and understand
that I -would tile a claim for
benefits because of recent
changes in the Social Security
Law. What do 1 need to prove
that I am disabled?
A. The proof of your dis­
ability will come from medical
evidence sent to the Social Se­
curity Administration by hos­
pitals and doctors who have
information about ,your condi­
tion. Your social security of­
fice will help you obtain the
necessary medical reports at

the time you file your nppUcntlon.
.
Q. I koi my social security
card. Must I get another social
aecurity number?
A. No. If you use mor* than
one social security number,
there ir a chance you may not
get credit for all of your earn­
ings, You should get a duplicate
card with the some number at
your social security office
Q. If I don't got my social
security check on the 3rd of
Uie month, what should I do?
A. If you have been getting
your checks regularly and you
know of no reason why tlie
check should be late, notify
your social security office after
the sixth of the month. This
allows time for you to get the
check if It was delayed in th?
mall.
If there might be -another
reason for the delay, such as
a recent change in your ad­
dress or other adjustments in
your record.', wait about two
weeks, then let your social
security office know Hint you
have not received your check.
Q. My husband and I have
been receiving a single month­
ly check with both our names
on it. He died before endorsing
the ciseck WlMrt muM I do with
the check?
A. You enn return the check
to be re-issued in yvur name.
If you liave an Immediate need
for the money", visit your social
security office, and they will
stamp tlie check so you can

cosh it without your husband ',
signature
Q. My hatband recently pxaed away. He was receiving tocial security benefit payments
I am only 59 yean old. What
kind of a payment can I ex­
pect to receive?
A, You can apply for and
receive lite lump sum death
payment now tit may be as
much as &gt;255 00i, nnd when
you are 60 years old. you can
qualify far a reduced monthly
benefit payment as a widow.
Q. Tiicre has born a death
in uur family and I wish to
flic a claim for the lump
death payment. However. I am
working and unable to get lo
the social aecurity office.
A. Social security offices now
are able to handle many kinds
of claims by telephone. Simply
dial the local social security
phone number, ask for service
by phone, and the claims rep­
resentative there will complete
your application over the phone
and mail It to you for your
signature.
Q I have changed my ad­
dress. Do I have to notify the
social security office?
A. Only if you are receiving
soda! security payments. or
have
prevtourly
fUed» for
monthly benefits or Medicare,
You cru\ report a change of
address by a telephone call to
the social security office.
Q. I accidently pul my Medi­

closed until the end of the Spring vacation on Monday,
April 19. Stores, offices and business institutions will close
for the three hours, from 12 to 3 on Friday.
Holy Saturday is the eve of Easter. Easter is the most
Important day of the Christian year as it certifies be­
lievers in their right to hope.
Easter does not deny the reality of death for Chris­
tians. but it offers them the assurance that God is able
to create new life beyond death.
The triumphal entry into Jerusalem was celebrated on
Palm Sunday, and in many churches palms were dis­
tributed symbolizing that great event
On Good Friday the Union Worship Service of the
Hastings Ministerial Association will be held at the
First Presbyterian Church. The Rev. Almon Fulton of
the Church of the Naxarene is the worship leader. The
message theme is “Creation's Grief," with Rev. C. L.
Walker, Grace Wesleyan Church: Rev. Howard Collver.
Assembly of God: Rev. Harvey Beach, First Presbyterian
Church, bringing the meditations.

composed of Ronald Hesterly, Darrell Keller, Gerald Ostroth and Don Reid, win sing "He Stayed on the Cross
for Me," accompanied by Mrs. Ruth West.
Ronald Pletcher, Seventh-day Adventist Church, is
to sing "It Took a Miracle," accompanied by Mrs. Ro­
berta Rau. Mrs. Charles Baragar is the organist for the
service.
A special offering will support the project IMPACT
which will provide a copy of "Good News for Modem
Man” for each home in Hostings.
The Union Good Friday service will be broadcast over
WBCH—AM/FM
While Easter Is essentially a religious celebration, it
is also a time for happy family reunions, special gifts
for youngster and also Easter Egg hunts.

�-EDITORIALWith this Uwe, The Banner begin* a new era. The
format ha* been changed but the objectives remain as ever
to bring you worthwhile and intereating news of Hastings
and Barry County.
Under controlled circulation, we are giving complete
coverage within the county and coverage on a subscription
basis Outside the county and state.
During our years on The Banner, we have been amazed
and pleased at the number of former residents who have
maintained contact with the old ‘home base" via The
Banner. These former residents may return regularly or
very infrequently. but they all have one thing in common
—a continuing Interest in and affection for Barry County
and oki friends here. Ties made earlier in life remain
unbroken.
It is our hope that you will find the New Banner attractive and readable. Use of the offset process for print­
ing permits greater flexibility in make-up and a more
interesting use of pictures and even color.
We make no claim that everything will be made to work
smoothly right from the start, since the change-over from
the conventional "hot type" (process involves many new
(for us) techniques. But the potential for Increased service
to readers in this area makes the effort very much
worthwhile.
An active, wide awake Chamber of Commerce is of key
importance in this highly competitive era in which we
live. The right kind of Chamber can. without being dicta­
torial, play an important role in fostering a cooperative
spirit within the retail and business community and with
the great expansion of elaborate shopping center complexes
within easy driving distance of "Main Street," local mer­
chants simply cannot afford the luxury of non cooperation.
Despite their size, shopping centers have their problems
—plenty of them. Home town merchants have a lot to offer
by way of courteous, prompt and personal service that the
"production line" tactics of a shopping center will find it
difficult, if not impossible to meet.
“Main Street” is, or can be if it cashes in on opportuni­
ties, a very special sort of shopping center with,each store
front an Individually owned "department" offering a ape-

clallzed line of merchandise to prospective customers. Each
Btorc that attract* a customer through quality of merchan­
dise, fair prices and courteous personal service, is also
producing a potential customer for one or more other "store

Complete
FERTILIZER

departments” up and down the street.
Of course each store has to look out primarily tor Its own
interest. After all. in private business, you can’t legislate
a deficiency appropriation "for free” if you get too far
behind. Good management is a must. But, if "Main Street"
is to meet the challenge of the shopping centers, something
of the "All for One. One for All" must be in evidence too
—a proper blend of self concern and altruism, so to speak.

In our opinion, the Chamber of Commerce office here

should be brought up to street level and made more acces­
sible and attractive for townspeople and visitors, alike. It is
both inconvenient and a bit depressing to go down a dark,
narrow stairway to reach the basement offices that are,
themselves lighted only by artificial light. If a Chamber of
Commerce is worth any support at all, it should be an
inviting layout at street level. Such an office would be, in
Itself, a good advertisement for the community. A dark,
basement office is better than nothing at all—but not much.

Probably no one In the United States is satisfied that
justice has been done in the case of Lt. William Calley.
This young combat officer has been made a symbol for all
the hate, frustration, and discontent that has been en­
gendered in connection with the unpopular military action
in Viet Nam—a war which is not understood and which
lias never been properly explained. Even before the formal
opening of his court-martial. Lt. Calley was tried and
retried in the media—television and newspapers—for all the
world to see.
Sitting in the sanctuary of an editorial office, it is easy
to moralize and philosophize and to make demolishing
"pronouncements." It is something different, however, to
be on combat duty under the incredibly difficult conditions
that exist in Viet Nam. Personally, we are not about to don
sack cloth and ashes and go into a prolonged period of
mourning over this incident in which a young officer*,
apparently broke under the stress of an especially diffi­
cult combat assignment and did not react in a man­
ner expected of professional soldiers. The tragedy was
not typical either of our military or the spirit of our
Nation. We are still proud of the United States and
proud to be a citizen of this great land. We will con­
tinue to look the world square in the face and leave
the moralizing to the moaners and groanere, if they so
choose.

To The Editor:
Too bad that the new law that will be in effect by
April 25 wasn’t in effect sooner. It is called the Fair
Credit Reporting Act. Our local Credit Bureau could
have possibly have had a law suit on its hands.
In 1969 I applied for a loan and was refused. I
checked to see why, and come to find out, that the
credit hadn’t brought my records up to date for two
years, they had me owing about $5,900 too much.
After I left, convinced by them, that they would
check and things would get straightened out.,'
Again, in 1970 I applied for another loan and again
was refused.
I then asked the dealer, why, and he stated that I
owed too much. I then talked on my own to him
and told him how I cleared up most of the debts so he
agreed to call back and have me rechecked. They did
so and this time when they called, one of the personnel
advised the dealer in his personal opinion. I quote,
"that this person would be a bad risk," unquote. I then
approached the Credit Bureau and found out that they
hadn’t followed up.
I think that if the dealer believed in personal opin­
ion, my credit would have been refused again, but I
was lucky and It went through, but for awhile I did
have some rugged payments to make until they knew
that I wasn't a bad risk.
I think that it is about time that we either get
our own credit Bureau to bring records up to date and
run an office like it should be. And when credit reports
are given personal opinions are left out completely
The Credit Bureau can make or break a person.
The Fair Credit Reporting assures the people that
the Credit Bureau must watch their step. The copy of
the new law is in the Consumers Report April Issue,

Hastings. Michigan
April 2. 1971
To the Editor:
I must take issue with your editorial opposing free
textbooks in public school*.
My school ax/a quotes a cost of $35.60 per child. This
would certainly work hardships on large families.
The books have a five year service period and this
expense should not be prohibitive. As early as 1922 some
school* were furnishing text books to all pupil* free on
opening day wRh satisfactory results.
This is the modern way of achieving the greatest
good to the greatest number

on the Goss Press. After the visit most of the psplls wrote The Banner, saying bow they enjoyed
the tour and that they would like to come back
again. Mrs. Gordon wrote: "The children were very
impressed, learned quite a lol. and really enjoyed
themselves. Giving them their own personalized
name plates really topped it off'." — Banner photo.

The Skedgells Celebrate Jubilee
An open house honoring Mr. and Mrs. George Skedgeil of R2 Nashville was held in the recreation hall in
the Lincoln Anns Park, at Bradenton, Fla.
The occasion was their 50th wedding anniversary
which was March 24.
The open house was hoeted by the Park owners, Mr.
and Mrs. Ralph DeBoer, assisted by Mrs. Doris Lass. .
As it was impossible for any of their children to be
present, they wired a lovely flower arrangement which
was used as a centerpiece.
Among the close to a hundred guests who attended
was George's brother and wife. Mr. and Mrs. Harold

After 13 days of signup
participation in the 1971
Wheat and Feed Grain Pro­
grams, there were 25,978
Michigan farms enrolled in
the Wheat Program and
264)18 farms enrolled in the
Feed Grain Program, It was
announced by Nick Smith,
chairman. Michigan State
Agricultural Stabilization
and Conservation Commit­
tee.
Nationally the signup re­
ports indicate 432306 farms,
representing 42
of the eli­
gible National domestic
acreage
allotment,
are
signed in the Wheat Pro­
gram and 699.850 farms are
signed in the Feed Grain
Program. Set-aside acreage
on the signed wheat farms
totals 6,005399 acres and
set-aside on the signed feed
grain farms totals 7,578,423.
Smith stated that a major
change in the 1971 programs
is the moving from divert­
ed to set-aside acres. Di­
verted acres
under past
programs represented a re­
duction in the wheat or feed
grain acres which could be
planted. Set-aside acres rep­
resent a reduction tn total
crop acreage on a farm but
not necessarily a cut in
wheat or feed grain acreage.
For example, if a producer
with a wheat allotment or
feed grain base &lt;or both!
Signs in the program, -sets
aside the- required acreage
which is equal to 75r- of the
allotment or 20' '• of the feed
grain base, and maintains
the farm’s conserving base,
he may plant all the wheat
or feed grains he wishes.
The only limit on plantings
would be the remaining
available cropland on the
farm.

Driving on Snow Tires
Not Good in Spring
As warmer weather begins to melt the snow and ice
of the winter, skiers put sway their skis, skaters put
away their skates and sleddera put away their sleds. The
question is: Why don’t more motorists put away their
snow tires?
The Tire Industry Safety Council advises motorists
who continue to use snow tires during warm weather
months that they are practicing false economy. By driv­
ing on dry pavements, the life of the tire is greatly
reduced because of excessive heat build-up and acceler­
ated tread wear. The tire may have been used next win­
ter, but will now have to be replaced.
"Heat is a tire's worst enemy,” says Ross R. Ormsby.
Chairman of the Council. "Sustained high-speed driving
on these extra duty, deep-tread tires in warm weather
results in much greater heat build-up than in conven­
tional tires with normal tread design and thickness."
“Running such a tire under these conditions easily
raises temperatures above the critical level of about 250
degrees,” Ormsby said, “and .the tread begins to wear
rapidly."
According to the Council, snow tires used during the
summer will be near useless when winter returns. With
little, if any, tread remaining they win be unprepared
when snow and ice conditions set in. and drivers are
reminded that many states require that all type tires
have sufficient tread depth.
The Council recognises it might toe economical for
motorists to leave snow tires on their vehicles if there
is only % inch of tread depth remaining. When the tire
is then worn to the 1/lSth inch level, it should be re­
moved as it no longer has any value as a snow tire or
conventional tire.
Federal law now requires all tire manufacturers to
place "wear bars" on all new passenger car tires. The
bars, officially known as "tread wear indicators," serve
as a warning to motorists when the tires are worn to
the danger point. The "wear bars" appear as smooth,
narrow bands running across the face of the tire tread
when it is worn to the l/16th level.
Tires which have been removed from storage should
be placed flat in a cool, dry area, away from sunlight
and electrical equipment. The tire's air pressure should
also be reduced to about'ten pounds to avoid unneces­
sary pressure on the heads and cords.
Many states require safety studded snow tires to be
removed from vehicles after a certain date. Legal re­
moval dates and states affected include: March 31,
Washington; April 1, Idaho, Iowa, Oklahoma, Rhode
Island and West Virginia; April 15, Kansas, Nebraska,
New Jersey, North Dakota, Virginia and Wisconsin; April
30, New York; May 1, Arizona, California, Illinois. Indi­
ana, Michigan and Minnesota, and May 31. Oregon.

Browning meat in a Mttle fat before adding it to a
combination dish brings out the flavor. Highly cured
or flavored meats—such as ham, dried beef, corned
beef and sausage—may give more flavor to bland foods
than fresh meats.

doors on that April day.
Miss Josephine Chase and Mrs. James Partridge ar­
ranged this lovely luncheon. The tables were decorated
with dolls from the collection of Mrs. Owen Gaylor.
These charming dolls were an accent for’ the program
of the day.

Best Crabgrass Control is
Proper Lawn Management
The best crabgrass control is proper lawn manage­
ment. points out Al Turgeon. Michigan State Univer­
sity turf grass specialist.
The lawn should be well fertilized, cut to the proper
height, and watered adequately at appropriate times of
the year, emphasizes Turgeon.
However. If crabgrass has been a problem in the
past with good management practices, it will probably
be a problem again this year, notes Turgeon, so do
something about it now.
The turfgrass specialist says the best chemical con­
trol for crabgrass is pre-emergence herbicide thLs Spring
eo seeds will be killed when they germinate. The lawn
should be free of undecayed plant residues before ap­
plication. he adds.
Recommended herbicides for controlling crabgrass
include terbutol, benefin, bensulide. DCPA and slduron.
These are sold under several trade names and some
are combined with fertilizer. Sometimes It is easier to
find a herbicide fertilizer combination than the herbi­
cide alone, says Turgeon. When using weed-and-feed
combinations, follow the direction of the manufacturer.
Store herbicides in a cool, dry place out-of-reach of
children and pets, warns Turgeon.

Mrs. Ronald (Carol) Benner, who was driving the
Junior high and high school car pool for the week for
her daughter, Lori, the Don Remley young folks (Liz.
and Jackie) and their Argentina exchange stuvent, Angela Aldazabal, and the Larry Kornstadts'
daughter, Kim, surprised them on April Fool's Day when
she came along with the Benner wheelbarrow, to wheel
them to school. They had to take toms riding, ot course
Lori rode to Remleys where the only one "game" to
ride was Liz. It took quite a lot ot persuasion to get
tome to even follow along, but after picking up Kim
Komstadt. they soon came to Boltwood St. where the
«nner car had been hidden Some of the neighbors
at N Hanover and E. Charles thought those In the pro­
cession were ~ott their rockers" but they should be get­
ting used to “fun things" happening In that neighbor­
hood If they have lived there long enough to get ac­
quainted with Carol and Mrs Don ijani Remley. Rick
Benner walked along for the fun and to take the wheel­
barrow home. It will be interesting to see whit happens
next year on April Fool's Day.

HEART RISKS I

&amp; YOU
All You Fat, Lazy Smokers
Are Courting Early Death
Are you a middle-aged male,
overweight, a heavy smoker
of cigarettes, with an elevated
blood cholesterol level and
high blood pressure?
Are you physically indolent
—in a word, lazy—and have
any ot your close relatives died
young from heart disease?
Are you neglecting dia­
betes?
If you must say yes to three
or more of these factors you
have an excellent chance to
suffer a heart attack, says the
Michigan Heart Association.
You are what Is known in
medical circles as “coronary
prone," a condition which will
excite no envy among pro­
fessionals dealing with human
illness.
Defining this is simple. The
more rljjk factors you have,
the greater your danger, a
danger that begins to increase
astronomically when you have
more than three.
The basis for this portrait
of the coronary-prone person
is not the result ot guesswork.
It is. rather, a statistically
valid finding from a research
project under way since 1949
in Framingham, Mass., and*
this finding is being verified
by other population studies
throughout the nation, includ­
ing one at Tecumseh, Mich.
In Framingham, 5,000 men
and women were given thor­
ough physical examinations,
end then re-examined over
the years. This program is
scheduled to continue until
1969.
•

Will power and the guid­
ance of a physician can bring
down or cause a long-time
heavy smoker to shuck his
habit ... or an overweight
person to reduce ... or a
physically indolent man to
get out and take a walk. It
may not be easy, but It can
be done, says the Michigan
Heart Association, a Michigan
United Fund agency.

While the data are not yet
complete, analysis gives a
rather clear composite picture
rf those among the 5,000 who
.'irvs had heart attacks.

A high cholesterol level pre­
sents a tougher problem; no
drug has yet been found which
can safely and certainly re­
duce blood fats In all patients.

Actually, this picture Is
hopeful because, with three
exceptions, the factors which
make a man a strong candi­
date for coronary disease are
preventable, or treatable.
Our candidate cannot, of
course, change his heredity,
sex or age. He is stuck with
these and the fact that he has
them should provide him with
a powerful motive 16 rld'hlmself of the ones that are pre­
ventable. Overweight, ciga­
rette smoking and physical
Indolence are highly pre­
ventable.

But there is increasing evi­
dence that diets which re­
place saturated fats (usually
solid at room temperatures)
with polyunsaturated fats
(mostly fish and certain types
of vegetable oils) can be quite
helpful.
As to high blood pressure, In
most people it can be lowered
and controlled with appropriatd trtatmSht, oftenlncludlhg
medication and diet. Here
medical advice is essentia).
One final point: it is never
too late to start a risk reduc­
tion effort.
.
All this does not guarantee
that a slim non-smoking
woman with low blood fats
and no hypertension cannot
have a heart attack, the Asso­
ciation explains.
But it does mean that each
of the listed factors is associ­
ated with America's leading
killer, heart attack, and that
the more factors present in
any one person, the higher his
risk.
And that all of us have It
within our power to reduce
the risk of becoming a victim
of heart attacks.

Quite often sirloin steaks are cut into two boneless
steaks—top sirloin and bottom sirloin, says the Con­
sumer and Marketing Service. The top sirloin Is the
more tender of the two, and the better selection for
cooking over charcoal

Look for freshness and crispness when you buy celcry. The stalk should have a solid, rigid feel and leaf­
lets should be fresh or only slightly wilted. Also look
for a glossy surface, dtalks of light green or medium
green and mostly green leaflets.
A study of childbirth to both the state of Wash­
ington and the country of Great Britain show thqt
pregnant women who smoke run a significantly greater
risk of losing their babies, either to birth or shortly
afterward, than do non-smoking mothers, says the
Michigan Heart Association, a United Fund Agency.

Thought of the Week I

Thomas C. Garrbach

“And, lo. I am with
you alway. even unto
the end of the world."
— Matthew 28:20.
Thus spake Jesus, risen
from the tomb, to His
disciples. As they
found comfort and in­
spiration in His words
and in His presence,
so may the Miracle of
Easter hearten and in­
spire us in our daily
lives. To you at Easter,
our warm regards.

Faculty Pending Tax Vote
flupt. William Eckitrom of Lakewcod Public Schools
Monday said the entire school faculty had received pink
slips Indicating they may not be rehired for the 1971­
72 school year.
Supt. Eckstrom explained that the Board of Edu­
cation members had two choices, either to pink clip the
staff of 125 or develop an austerity program to comply
with Michigan's tenure law which requires 60 days no­
tice on or before the end of a district's school year.
What happens will depend on how electors ballot
in lhe Lakewood special election on May 4. Voters are
being asked to approve 11.7 mills for school operation.
That Includes the nine mill tax which is expiring and
an addition 2.7 mills. The additional 2.7 would add 893.­
500 to the district’s income.
If the special tax is approved. Lakewood would have
a total of 20.1 mills for operation.
The district hasn’t had a millage increase rince April
1968.

Prune Bush
Roses Now ' •
Early spring is the time
to prune bush roses, says a
Michigan State University
horticulture scientist
"Most bush roses should
get their annual pruning
just before growth starts in
the spring," -says Dr. Wil­
liam J. Carpenter. "If done
right, this can control the
appearance of the bush and
the quality and quantity of
flowqrs."
According to Carpenter,
rose pruning isn't difficult.
Sharp tools are of primary
Importance — a ffne-toothed
saw for dead canes and
pruning shears for other
work.
Carpenter lists the follow­
ing procedures In pruning
bush roses:
1. Remove all dead wood,
being careful to cut an inch
or so below the dark colored
areas. If there are no live
buds,
remove
the whole
branch or cane.
2. Cut
out
all
weak
growth. Remove all canes or
branches that grow toward
the center of the bush. If
two branches cross, remove
the weaker one.
3. Shape the plant by cut­
ting back the remaining
canes to a uniform height—
about 24 to 30 Inches In
southern Michigan. If the
winter has been especially
severe, just remove the dead
wood and save as much live
wood as possible.
4. For
tree
type
bush
roses, do a heavy spring
pruning. Follow steps one
and two above and then cut
back the remaining canes
about 8 to 12 inches above
the ground. Tree type roses
may need some cutting dur­
ing the growing season to
prevent them from becom­
ing top heavy.
5. Shrub type bush roses
are the exception to the
rule. They should be pruned
after they have blossomed
These plants are usually
very hardy and need prun­
ing only to thin out and re­
move old canes. Shaping
isn't needed since shrub
roses look best In their na­
tural form.
6. If undesired shoots
come from the understock
during the growing season,
remove them as soon as
they appear. If allowed to
Brow,
these shoots
may
dominate the plant.

Work for the
Handicapped
Now Available
A
new
Industry
has
sprung up within the Lake­
wood area.
Known as the Lakewood
Work Activity Center, it has
become a meaningful place
for mentally and physically
handicapped individuals to
gain a feeling of personal
worth and satisfaction.
For the first time in many
of their lives, these people
arc working and are per­
forming a worthwhile serv­
ice to area businesses. By
observing them at work, one
cannot help being impressed
by the pride they have In
their work and the ability
they have to meet precise
specifications.
The workers come from
various areas such as Has­
tings. Lake Odessa. Wood­
land and last year from
Ionia.
At the present.time there

10 more.
Interest in the program

been attempting to arrange

no solution has been arrived
at, and efforts are still be­
ing made
Mrs. Shirley Jopple. sup­
ervisor for the Work Activify Center, stated that ex­
pansion of the program de­
pends on how well the
transportation problem is
solved.
“The
people are
available for the program,
it is Just a matter of seeing
that they can get to work
and back home again each
day.” She also felt that perhaps the Center could in­
volve more physically han­
dicapped than It presently
is. and perhaps even some
Senior Citizens who would
like to stay active and at
the same time increase the
center’s production.
Area businesses will be
contacted soon for work
contracts. If anyone would

ness, please call Mrs. Joppie

�Senior Citizens See Beauties
Of Michigan’s Countryside
About 55 senior citizens of the Hastings community
met Monday. March 29. for the usual 1 o'clock dinner,
followed by the business session presided over by act­
ing president, Mrs. timer Loehr.
The discussion was in regard to the need of the club
for a piano to give more "body" to the group singing,
which is generally led by Ray Wolfe.
The committee reported the offer of a gift piano,
which would require some repairs as well as transpor­
tation and final tuning. Total bill will be about 550.
No action was taken at this meeting.
The birthday and anniversary table was attractively
supplied with flowers, and there were a number of hon­
orees.
The program was in charge of George London, na­
turalist. in the DNR’s park division, including the al­
ready well-developed Yankee Springs area.
The beautiful color slides were preceded by a brief
liistory of the region. Officer London spoke with much
enthusiasm of what the continuing Improvements of fa­
cilities for recreation and pleasure will mean for the
children and grandchildren of renior citizens
Meeting was adjourned to assemble again April 26.
when the three timely topics, "Drugs, Narcotics and
Crime" will be discussed by Assistant Police Chief Rob­
ert Ritter.

Computer Gives Cows Better
Diet Than Kids Get
Dairy cows of the future will receive better balanced
diets than most people, thanks to a computerized ra­
tion formulation system recently developed at Michigan
State University.
"Use of the computer system to formulate dairy cat­
tle rations will be' available to every farmer who has
access to a telephone,” says Dr. Donald Hillman, MSU
dairy nutritionist.
“Information such as feeds available, feed coats and
average cow size can be called directly to a computer
at Ann Arbor. Mich. The fanner holds, the telephone
line—for about five seconds—while the computer figures
a least-cost, nutritionally balanced ration."
The only cost to Michigan fanners is for the long
distance call. Fanners in other states are charged a fee
based on computer-use time.
The system was developed by MSU agricultural eco­
nomists and dairy scientists. But using computers to
aid farmers' decision making is not new for the MSU
staff.
Since 1969. 31 computer programs Ixave been develop­
ed at MSU to aid farm management decisions. Fann­
ers have been able to contactthe computer by tele­
phone for fertilizer recommendations, tax management
guidance and estate planning help.
Michigan probably leads all states in developing
computer systems to aid farmers, notes Dr. Stephen
Harsh, MSU agricultural economist. He gives much of
the credit for this to Kellogg Foundation support.

Concerned Friends Discover
Man Slashed by Chain Saw
The concern of friends is undoubtedly the reason
Elwood (Dutch) Ragla, 73, R3 Hastings, didn’t die in
the woods.
Dutch, as everyone knows him, cut cutting timber
in Jerry Johnson's woods west of N. Broadway at Wel­
come Corners and about 10 am Tuesday the roar from
his chain’ saw stopped.
Naturally, there was no concern until a long time
had passed. About 6:30 pan. or so, Mr. and Mrs. Bill
McKlbbin who live nearby, stopped at the Johnson's
house at 2796 N. Broadway and expressed concern. Mrs.
Johnson (Mary), who is a nurse and a ward supervisor
at the Medical Facility, also recalled that nothing had
been heard of Ragla's roaring saw since mid-morning.
The three decided to find out why. Jerry was getting
ready to go to the Barry County Lumber Company's
meeting at the Hotel Hastings but was to wait until
they investigated.
They found Ragla critically injured, and he had
lost a great quantity of blood.
Ragla told them he remembered a pain in the left
side of his chest, and that he then "lost everything,"
apparently fainting and falling on his saw. He suffered
a skull fracture, a cut above the forehead and his left
thuqpb had almost been severed. Ragla went only a
short distance from where the accident happened, be­
fore he became too weak to continue.
Mary and the McKibbins did what they could for
him. then Mary ran for help. Jerry saw her coming
and met her with their car. They returned to their
home. Mary called for the ambulance, Jerry got
blankets and ran to the woodsy-one can drive only a
short distance. Mary waited on Broadway for the am­
bulance to arrive and guide Larry Osgood and Har­
land Guernsey of Central Ambulance to the scene.
The men, with the assistance of two young men.
carried the injured man to the ambulance, from whfire
he was taken to Pennock Hospital and later he was
transferred to Blodgett in Grand Rapids.

HHS Tennis Coach Optimistic
The Hastings High School Tennis team was to open
the 1971 season Tuesday, April 6, hosting the Bearcats
of Battlj Creek Central at Johnson Field.
The Saxons have a core of six lettermen, including
what should be the youngest and toughest trio of single.
Players in the Wert Central League, Coach Tom Frerldge believes.
Because of the indoor courts In the new HHS gym.
the Eaxons have had tour weeks of full practice, includ­
ing practice matches, while most teams have been hit­
ting balls against the wall, waiting for good weather.
The resulting advantage should give the netters a
head start toward what could be Hastings’ flrat WCL
Tennis championship since 1963.
____
Dave VanDerMolen and ocaptains Jerry Kessenlch,
and Bob Allen, should provide Hastings with the best
1-2-3 punch in the conference, Coach Freridge said. let­
terman Pat Klnek will fill the 4th singles position for
non-conference matehea
In West Central play, which has only three stapes
matches, Pat will team with tetterman GeoC Goodyear
at the 1st doubles position. The sixth returning leHer­
man, Jeff Bennett, will team with\Rob Stack at 2nd
doubles to give the Saxons good depth and experiehoe.
filling out ths 1971 squad are Don Myers, BUI Bose
and Sherm Camp, all back from last year; and promis­
ing freshmen. Jeff Morrill, Tom Groos and Greg McGand^.

employees appear to have
been victimised by unusual
circumstances.
For Instance, records show
that an automobile me­
chanic suffered severe bums
on his hands when he acci­
dentally discharged a tear­
gas gun which had been
concealed in the car he was
ripairing.
In another Incident, a
saleslady received head and
bock injuries when an auto­
mobile crashed through the
front door of the jewelry
store where she was em­
ployed and struck her.
A store clerk suffered a
severed wrist artery when a
customer knocked over a
lamp display on him.

Saxons Open Spring Schedules
Weather permitting, Hastings High School Spring
sports were to get underway this week Tuesday with
the baseball team entertaining Battle Creek Lakeview,
the track team going to Lakeview for a triangular with
the Spartans and Coldwater and the tennis team host­
ing the Battle Creek Central netters.
The inaugural golf match with Middleville coming
here Tuesday was postponed because of the condition
of the course.
•
'This Thuraday the Forest Hills baseball team is to
come here for pother non-league game and the Del­
ton High tennis tessp &gt; al£&gt; slated to be hero for a
4:15 match.
•
.
Ths schedule will resume after the Spring recess
which begins on April 9 and continues until the 19th.
Coach Bernie Oom expected his HHS varsity base­
ball lineup to be filled with new faces as seven regulars
were lost from last year's co-championship team which
had a 10-4 West Central Conference record.
Only regulars Bob Terry and Cart Norris are back
from that crack nine. Damon Perdue is back, and he
was a regular shortstop until be was injured midway
in the season.
,
Still, Coach Oom has high hopes for another suc­
cessful season as he has some fine seniors returning
and a hard-working group of juniors up from last year's
junior varsity.
A regular lineup probably will not be set until after
a few games as outside drills have been limited by the
weather Moat of the prospects have been working out
at two positions. Hitting ability will be Che determining
factor.
.

Up to this week Norris was leading the mound crew.
He will probably play in the outfield or handle first
base when he isn't pitching. Carl hit J294 last Spring,
good for 13th in the league. His pitching was 5-2 in 1970.
• Other pitchers working for starting assignments are
Perdue. Tim Henion. Ed Hurley. Mark Ostroth and Rick
PoweH.
The catching chores will be handled by Cohn Cruttenden, who had considerable experience last Spring
and during the Summer. Denny Armstrong will be ready
to back him up. Coach Oom said.
The first basemen are Perdue, Norris and Powell
Dale Traister has the inside track at second, backed
up by Brian Hoxworth, a senior newcomer to the team.
Veteran Bob Terry returns at short after hitting 384
last Spring, second best sticker in the conference.
Ed Hurley and Mitch St. Martin, another newcomer,
are battling it out for third base. Mark Pittiekow could
move in at either second or third base.
Outfield spots are wide open, Coach Oom reports.
Seniors Hen Ion, Bob Jerow and Mike Kesler have the
best shots due to their experience. Steve Brogan, Ostroth ahd Jim Lovell are working hard for positions.
The players have selected Cruttenden and Perdue
as their co-captains.
Coach Oom figures the f^rst week following vaca­
tion as the Saxon's toughest, as they face Charlotte
on Monday. Ionia Tuesday and Grand Ledge on Thura­
day. April 22. All three games will be on the road.
Coach Oom believes the league should be stronger
this season as many regular pitchers are returning. The

strongest pre-reason picks are Grand Ledge, Alma, Wa­
verly and Ionia.
The Saxons are looking forward to a fine season with
new uniforms, new dugouts and the new State baseball
tournament which begins here on June 5. Hastings is
hosting a Class B district tournament.
Coach Oom concluded “This should be an Interesting
season. We have some excellent bah players and others
who are eager to learn an improve. Our pitching staff
will be inexperienced, but it is the finest group of po­
tential pitchers I have had. I look for a strong finish
from this squad, with their potential ability. If we can
got by the first week of league games, well be okay."
Golf Coach Robert Cartoon is optimistic about his
squad's chances, even though he lost most of his finest
last Spring.-Rick Morgan and Dick Francisco were gradu­
ated and Dave McGuire and Bruce Hahn transferred
when their families moved away.
Lettermen back are Dave Hollister, a senior; Mark
Haines, a junior, and Brian. Smith, a sophomore. There

fathers, mothers, sister) and brothers turned nut at
. the junior high’s west gymnasium to see the many
'exhibit* and watch the eliminations and finals in the
1971 Pinewood Derby.
There was great excitement as the championship

to James Burdick. 9. of the St. Rose Pack; third went
to Mark Chase. 8. of CentraUSchool. and Mike DeBolt.
8. ot Delton, was the -fourth place winner.
Many men and women put in a lot of time making

the supervising. Running the Pinewood Derby in an
efficient manner were Director of Public Services Mike
Klovanich. Aiderman George Hamaty, Jim Partridge.
Jerry Rletkerk, Elwin Johnson and Bob Smith.
It isn't too early for area golfers to start planning to
play in the 36-Hole Hastings Centennial Golf Tourna­
ment which John Czinder of Gardner’s Pharmacy is
arranging for May 29-30. John plans on a $12 entry fee
with the held limited to 120. The first 18 holes is to be
played at Don and Joan Haywood's River Bend course
and the final round at the Hastings Country Club. Half
of the entry fee will go for green fees, and the other
half for trophies, prizes and to boost the Centennial's
Income. John is also toying with the Idea of having an
18-hole women’s division, with nine holes played each
day. Distaff golfers interested in helping promote the
tourney could let John know. . . .

While on the Centennial. Ira E. Scudder. R4 Hastings,
brought in a 1906 ■Druid." the old name for the HHS
yearbook, which tells about the HHS football team of
1906:
"Our football team of *05 was not organized until late
in the season. However, under the guidance of Coach
Rogers, they were soon working together in good form.
The team had much difficulty in securing games and
several teams cancelled their dates with us. The season
opened with a closely contested game with St. James
High School of Grand Rapids. The next game was with
Lowell High School on the home grounds and resulted
in a grand victory for our team. We also defeated Free­
port High School and played Charlotte a tie game. We
were defeated by the Ionia Signal Corps and by the
Charlotte city team." The scores were: Hastings 5, St
James 6; Hastings 45, Lowell 0; Hastings 17, Freeport 6;
Hastings 5, Charlotte. 5; Hastings 6, Ionia Signal Corps
27. and Hostings 0, Charlotte city team 17. Hastings ac­
cumulated 78 points, the opponents 61.

-Enforcement of regulations to control toilet-equip­
ped recreational boats In Michigan waters this Bum­
mer will not be affected by a temporary court restrain­
Ing order acquired by some members of the Lake Car­
riers Association, say staff members of the Michigan
Water Resources Commission.
The 1970 Watercraft Pollution Control Law (Act 167&gt;
requires that all such boats moored or operated m
Michigan waters be equipped with sewage holding tanks
recirculating self-contained marine toilets or incinera­
tors to reduce all watercraft sewage to ash. Failure to
comply with any of the provisions of the law may re­
sult in a citation and fine of up to $500.
A suit brought against state officials and depart­
ments by some members of the Lake Carriers 'Associa­
tion brought temporary curtailment of law enforce­
ment against the commercial vessels only, said Wayne
Verspoor of the WRC staff.
•Enforcement efforts to regulate recreational water­
craft will be carried out during the 1971 boating sea­
son," he stated.
He announced that to date. 69 private marinas have
Indicated they have pumpout facilities for the water­
craft sewage or will have facilities installed by the be­
ginning of the boating season. In addition, there are
35 public marinas with pumpout facilities in Michigan
—at least 104 already available for the 1971 season.
Based on replies to WRC questionnaires, the cost
per pumpout at private marinas will range from $2.25
to $5. said Verspoor. Last year’s average price was $3.50
Lists of the pumpout facilities and their locations
around the state will be available in May at the
Water Resources Commission office in Lansing.

‘Thank You,’ Concerned
Citizens of Hastings
By Mark Wolfe
Hasting* High School
WlHit this town needs is some place for kids to go
and get off the streets. At one time we had this but
thanks to The Concerned Citizens of Hastings It was
closed.
* •
Some reasons why It was closed were some rumors
that the older generation had going. We had never
heard tlicse until it was closed. Someone that had never
attended the coffeehouse said, to the extent, that there
were good old Roman sex orgies going on down in the
dungeon. This was entirely untrue- but it got around
town and consequently led to the closing of the coffee­
house. This was Just one of many rumors we had
against us.
What the old coffeehouse did accomplish, In my opin­
ion. was that it brought the young kids of the town
together. It was a central meeting place for us. If noth­
ing was happening In town you could go on over to the
O. D. and there would almost always be people there
If not, you oould just sit around, read some comics or
newspapers, play some records, and wait until somebody
got there.
At first it was really great. We could have it 6pen
24 hours a day and we would even sleep overnight down
there. We had-a pop machine with the cheapest pop in
town. (Only 10c.) We had an ample supply of comics,
too. After a while we even opened up another room
for card- playing and Scrable games. But this is all
The coffeehouse meant a lot to us. Wc worked at
cleaning it and kept it clean. We enjoyed playing Fris­
bee in the back yard. We started thinking of Pr. Ohnstead as a father. We had fun playing with his chil­
dren. But we regretted closing it because it was the
only thing we had.
Now it's gone, thanks to some concerned citizens
and now we can’t even get another. A big Thank You
to The Concerned Citizens of Hastings for putting the
kids beck on the streets, (and keeping them there.)

first being procured. And further, that the secretary of
said society is empowered to see that the above con­

the sum of 8500 each. The others in default of 81,000
each were committed to Jail.
In the issue of Aug. 12 we find the following article
concerning the Atlantic cable which has Just been laid
and which at that time was looked upon almost as one
of the even wonders of the world:

SUCCESS OF THE ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH. K
The moot sanguine expectations of this enterprise have
been realized. Time and space have given away to the
inventive genius and perservance of the human race.
England and America can talk with each other with all
the facility of next door neighbors. A new bond of union
is connecting us with our trans Atlantic friends. The
success of this great enterprise Inaugurates a new era
in national intercourse and it is to be hoped by It much
of the trouble and misunderstanding between govern­
ments may be avoided. It would be folly to attempt to
enumerate all the blessings which may. flow from the
establishment of the Ocean Telegraph' Line. Its great
benefit to trade and commerce. its influence upon the
arts and sciences, and its incalculable good in the pro­
motion of harmony in the intercourse of nations, can
only be understood and appreciated as realized by the
results of Ms practical workings.
The success of the enterprise is to the public sudden
and unexpected. Its long delay, its many reverses and
failures had nearly extinguished everything but hope
in the mind of the people on this side of the ocean,
and even that last hope was ^pearly extinguished by

mention of late that there 1* a Temperance meeting
held at the Courthouse every Friday evening.

the recent disasters attending the laying of the cable
Much solicitation will continue to be felt for the safety
of Che cable as the lease failure of any of iu porv
will ruin ila whole structure and require
relaying
of its whole length The depth of the ocean along iu
whole length h about two miles and this great ‘depth
is likely to enhance the chance* of its safety The great
event of 1858 is the successful laying of the Atlantic
cable.
In the same Usue under the head of “Barberous
we find the following unique advertisement:
••Barbarity is no port of our creed, morally or pj.
liticaily. but we cun assure our friends that their phy­
sical appearance pan M much improved and their com­
fort materially enhanced, by submitting to a Barber­
ous operation at the hands of A. H Hannis, nearly op.
pocite the poetoffice.’'

In the issue of Aug. 26 of the same year we find an
account of a frost that occurred on the'Monday and
Tuesday mornings previous. 11 was severe enough to
ruin the buckwheat crop and some of the garden vines
however the damage was said to. be small.

FRIENDS MEETING

CHURCH

OF

THE

WEEK

Irving Chapel bad its birth back in 1868 when a group
of Methodist met and organized a church. This first
group mA in the old .school building until the present
building was erected in 1877. At this time Irving was
a booming town with many businesses such as a post
office, general store, flour mill and a cooper shop. IU
also had a train station and a hotel.
The present church was built at the coat of three
thousand dollars. This building is still in excellent con­
dition. Just this past Summer a new roof was put on
by steeple jacks. They were covering wood shingles and
most likely this was the original roof
In 1949 the Methodist Conference decided to discon­
tinue services in Irving. This did not stop some erf the
people who had the conviction that there should be a
church in the village. Different ones attempted to open
the church. The people were still having Sunday school
as they met each Sunday in tbe old village hall which
was very drafty in the Winter time. Some of the mem­
bers of the Sunday school papered the walls with wafl-

�PASTOR'S CORNER

. This week’s Guest Editoral by
Rev. B. J. Midkiff
(Partor, Irving Chapel)

What Is A Church?
There are many today that aeem to be asking the
question, "What la a Church?" They have an honest
question and should receive an honest answer. As we
look about us we see so many different kinds of churches
and aD claiming to be the "true church." This becomes
a real problem for people as to what church, if any. to
attend. Many keep looking for the perfect church where
there Is never a misunderstanding among Its members.
There is no such church and there never has been.
It Just takes a few minutes in the New Testament to
see that soon after the church was started there was
sin and trouble revealed. In AcU Chapter 5 it tells of a
man and his wife who lied to God and death was the
result.
A person looking for a church to attend could be­
come confused in their search. They may look for a
friendly place to worship where everyone shakes tend*
The next may look for a beautiful structure that just
compels them to worship. One lady told me that she
couldn’t worship In a certain church because it didn't
look like a church. There are many who are looking for
business contacts In the church, or.to be a member of
a certain church means you are one of the leading citi­
zens of the community.
The Bible gives us guide lines in choosing a church
to attend. It must teach the inspiration of the Scrip­
tures. without this you have nothing to teach. It must
teach the deity of Christ (that He was and Is God).
It must also teach that Christ died for the -sin of the
world and that God was satisfied with the sacrificial
death of His Son. H Oar. 5:21 "For he hath made him
to be sin for us, who knew no sin; That we might be
made the righteousness of God In him " It must teach
that Christ arose for our justification. Paul says In I
Cor. 15:12-18. "If Christ did not raise from the dead
we have no hope and we are of all men most miser­
able." It must teach that man needs a new birth A
spiritual birth Jesus told Nicodemus, a ruler of the
Jews, “Ye must be bom again." It is not how religious

a person is but has he been bom Into God's family bythe new birth This is the question.
To get an understanding of the New Testament
church a person must understand Satan and his work.
He is out to confuse and counterfeit God’s work in
any way he can. He comes os an angel of light. Mon
comes up with "new light" or “wild fire" so then we
have another division. In Psalm 127:1 we read "Except
the Lord build the house they labor in vain that build
IL . ."
The Lord Jesus Christ spoke in Matt. 18:18 of Him
building His Church He said He would build His church
upon the truth that Christ is the Son of the living God.
Also it was to be future from this time. He said "I will
build." To get bock to the question "What is a church?"
It is a called-out or assembled company of people. Even
more Important is refers to a company of people called
out from the old creation into tlw new, being gathered
by the Spirit into one organism or body of which Christ
Is the Head. This Includes all those, and only those,
who have been saved in the period between the day
of Pentecost and the return of Christ to receive His
own.
As a member ot this New Testament Church having
been led, as we believe, by the Spirit of God. to receive
the Lord Jesus Christ as our Savior, we should by the
aid of the Holy Spirit, walk together in Christian love;
strive for the advancement of this church. We should
also maintain family and secret devotion, to religious­
ly educate our children; to seek the salvation of our
family and friends; to walk circumspectly in the world.
We should watch over one another In brotherly love;
to remember each other in prayer; to aid each other
in sickness and distress, to cultivate Christian sym­
pathy in feeling and courtesy in speech. When we move
from one place to another we should as soon as pos­
sible unite with some other church where we can carry
out the spirit of these.things listed above and the prin­
ciples of God's word.

COLLECTOR’S PRIZE — Clarence Hause, Local
contractor, has in his possession one of the most
unique and highly prized collector's items around
and doubly interesting because of the Hastings
Centennial.
Here Hause, who was born and raised in Okla­
homa, displays a rare 1845 edition of Ensign's
Travellers Guide of the United State*. Measuring
27 x 40. the map includes Hastings but not Grand
Rapids or Kalamazoo at the time of Ha printing.
The Library of Congress. Ln a letter to Hause,
acknowledges that they have only one other copy
of tt^e relic in its possession.
James Polk was President (11th) when the map
was made and other interesting photos included
one of the Pilgrims’ landing in 1626. President
George Washington's Farewell. Battle of Lexington
and Bunker Hill.
The unusual find, made by Hause while cleaning
out the attic of an old home, can be viewed at
City Bank where it is currently on display.

Back in 1933, Wendell R. Lyons was a member of the
first class to graduate from the new Thomapple W. K.
Kellogg high school in^MIDDLEVILLE.
Today he is associate director of The University of
Michigan Development Office. The office, housed on
campus in the Michigan Union, has the responsibility
for raising funds from private sources for the University.
The University's Development Office is nationally rec­
ognized as one of the leaders in fund raising. Just last
year, the Development Office received the U.S. Steel
Award for being the top educational fund raising pro­
gram In the United States.
Wendell was bom in Thomapple Township In Barry

and Mrs. Ray Lyons. As a youth, he was active in 4-H
clubs. Hl-Y clubs. Church Youth activities and he also
took part in football, basketball and track.
Like all of his brothers. Wendell had to work his way
through college. He washed dishes at a rooming house
during his freshman year at Western Michigan. His
sophonfore and junior years found him driving a school
bus for Western and during his senior year he held a
salaried position as business manager of the Brown and
Gold, the-'year book.
His summers between his years at college also found
him at work. His first two summers were spent as
manager of the Walker Pickle Company plant in Mid­
dleville. Between his junior and senior year and right
after he received his Bachelor of Arts degree in 1937.
he was a salesman for the Mandeville King Seed Com­
pany. He sold flower seeds in North and South Dakota
and in Minnesota.
.
His salesman's career ended in the Pall of 1937 when
he became athletic director at the Starr Commonwealth

vities and camp director for the Flint Young Men's

Wendell's involvement with Ann Arbor started in
1951 when he became executive director of what is now
the Ann Arbor YM -Y W.C.A.. a post he held until 1963
Under his leadership, the Y.M.C.A. and the Y.W.C A.
were merged and $2 million was raised for a new
building.
He left Ann Arbor for a year in 1963-64 to be assist­
ant to the president of Western Michigan University,
but he was back in Ann Arbor in August of 1964 to be a
field director for the University's Development Council.
Thus he was on hand for the highly successful sesqui-oentennlal campaign which marked the1 University's
150th anniversary in 1967. The campaign had a goal of
155 mllliprf Uui^rais^ a total of 172 million. On July 1.
1967, in the m)JJHc W' &lt;$&lt;;. sesqui-centennlal year. Wen­
dell was promoted^ his present position of associate
director.
Wendell has been very active in civic affairs. He. was

Ann Arbor and is active in the Republican Party, pres­
ently serving as county finance chairman. In addition,
be serves as a consultant to several organizations on
fund raising.
In 1946. he was selected as the outstanding young

BARGAIN

'

The Concord Traveler you re looking
at has everything you’d expect from
a deluxe travel trailer except a high
price. It’s a bargain-priced 23 footer
that sleeps six comfortably.

we can buy in bigger quantities, too.
Such as brand-name appliances, bath­
room fixtures, aluminum siding and
so on. And this lets us pass along
savings, too.

But we’ll go to any length to
please your family.

Get acquainted with your Concord
Traveler dealer, and we’ll show you
how easy it is to tow a real bargain.

You’ll find our Concord, Champion
and Woodsman brands in a wide range
of sizes from 15 to 35 feet. With a
price selection that goes from low to
very low.

All it takes is a little pull. With
a Concord. Champion or Woodsman
travel trailer.

We put your family’s get-away
plans on wheels fo*r less by doing
more. Seventeen years experience has
taught us that making things like the
fine-fumiture cabinetry, rich wood in­
terior wall paneling and high-fashion
seat-bed cushions ourselves can cut
costs without cutting quality.'
And because we’re 36 plants big,

ths breakup of streets from the past wint r’s mows

NEIGHBORS NEW FRIENDS.
The WBCH Treasure Hunt still continues to be a
prominent topic of conversation.
It is Mrs. Rozell (Clara) Stanton’s opinion that the
Treasure Hunt made new friends for everyone. It Is true
that most (probably all) of the contestants called many
folks to ask if they had. or knew someone who had. the
required "hunt" articles.
It was through Vivian Townsend Enyert that Clara
got theca^logue requested. Vivian knew of the Sheerin
family on the southeast side of Gun Lake who had
antique cars. They were the ones who gave Clara the
1942 license plate with the ’43 tab—thus new friends
were made. As a matter of fact, because of this interest
and concern the Sheerins will drive one of their antique
cars In the Big Area Centennial Parade here In June.
Incidentally, (and this is like one of the old Ripley
Believe It or Not Items] the Stanton's daughter Jeanie
Reed, who is employed by a brokerage firm in Grand
Rapids, discovered that her home address, 120 N.E. was
Identical except for one letter, 120 N.W., where she works
in the furniture city’s Waters building.

Woman Talented Final Session
Mrs. Ellen Hartwell, 105 Sherman St., Nashville, is
a comparative newcomer to that community. She is al­
most blind, but despite her handicap, does al) of the
routine tasks of a housewife for herself and husband,
Ray Hartwell, to whom she was married in 1968.
The couple lived on his farm on Guy Road until an
auto accident two years ago demolished their car and
forced them to move into town.
Having poor eyesight from birth, the former Ellen
Philbrook has also been plagued with other physical
problems which caused her to be hospitalized for 23
years from 1941 to 1964. Despite her handicaps Mrs.
Hartwell has developed various hobbies. She has done
numerous paintings, working in colors until she could
no longer distinguish them. She works in ceramics, does
leather work, has made waste baskets, letter liolders
and even a Biini^ture church from lollipop sticks.
Mrs Hartwell was bom in York, Me.. in 1905. She
came 'to Hastings in 1924, then went to work in a pri­
vate home in Grand Rapids for three years. Later she
enrolled in a Grand Rapids school,-then moved back to
Hastings from 1930 to 1940. Following her release from
the hospital she looked after a blind woman kt Caro
for three years.
Her latest hobby is writing poems, something she
started in 1968. She listens to records for the blind, and
recently submitted a poem, "Looking Up" to the Chris­
tian Record Talking Magazine, and has been notified
that K wift- appear in the April issue of the magazine
which is recorded on long-playing records and sent to
blind and-visually handicapped persons throughout tho
United States and 87 other countries.
The Hartwells are members of the Berryville Peace
dUnited Brethren-Methodist Church and the
local SenMtCitizens Club. She is a member of the United Method!tot Church Cloverleaf class at Nashville, and
some of tarh hobbies may be seen at the "All Work Dis­
play” at tfcc&gt; church on April 1 and the White Elephant

Lakewood Seeks Cost of

Living Increase on May 4
•
A cost of living 2.7 mill increase for school operation
will be sought by the Lakewood Board of Education on
May 4th. Supt. William Eckstrom said.
Voters will decide on a 11.7 mill proposal which re­
news the 9 mills, expiring and includes the 2.7 mill in­
crease. The additional is expected to meet the cost of
living Increase experienced during the past 12 months
provided the state aid is also increased $15 per child.
If state aid does not reach this figure some cuts will
be necessary in the operating budget according to board
officials. The request U considered a conservative one
that will hopefully maintain the present program.
The board did agree to offer voters the option of
voting an additional mill on a separate ballot for cur­
riculum improvements. Many parents have expressed a
desire for mare early elementary special programs to
provide more help to children who Jxave difficulty learn­
ing basic skills, especially reading.
The board has received recommendations from a
committee of 28 citizens, three of whom teach. Thir­
teen favored a &gt;.2 mill increase. 4 recommended a 2.7
mill increase and 11 favored neither propose!.
'Die district lias not had a millage increase since
ApAl of IMS The education of over 3,000 students Is
requiring 102 mills this year with only nine being
levied. The additional funds will come from the general
fund balance but cannot in the future. Merely renew­
ing the nine mills would Immediately require sharp out
backs in education for children and an austerity budget.
A series of meetings are being scheduled through­
out the district to explain and discuss the proposal in
detail
Effect ef Vitaathn Increases
How much more operating money does the Lake­
wood District receive because of recent valuation in­
creases? This question is often asked of school officials?
The answer is none.
If one man gives you 817.46 more and because of that
another man reduces his payment to you by 830.00,
how much have you gained or lost?
That is exactly what happens in Lakewood when
any valuation increases 81,000. The local property owner
who has had his assessment increased pays 817.46 more
and the State deducts 820 In state aid. The district loses
si*.
The break-even point for the district is 20 mills and
the district current rate is 17.45 mills. The State legis­
lators are not very sympathetic to Lakewood's since the
average district in the State now levies 25 milk and
does not have this problem, states Superintendent Wil­
liam Eckstrom.
The principal of deducting 820 &lt;20 mills) per 1,000
of valuation in State aid is sound. It provides more
state funds to low valuation districts like Lakewood.
However, when the tax rate is as low as Lakewood's,
any increase. in valuation actually ends up with the
district losing money. Strange but true, concluded the
Superintendent.

�—EDITORIAL —
Yes sir! People around here are really getting into the
Centennial spirit. A lot of life-long ’•smoothies" are begin­
ning to blossom out with moustaches, chin whiskers, side­
burns or combinations of same. That represents real loyalty
for the old home town since, on the first time around, at
least, the process is a bit on the "scratty” side. If you can
last out thejQrst five* weeks, so the experts claim, the worst
is over. Hope that's true. We re only on the third week and
every morning It gets more and more difficult to resist the
temptation to “come clean.”
? , Also, these pearl grey toppers arc pretty "snazzy” and it
has been many a year since a derby (black or brown)
appeared along the street, although, back in the "dark
ages," say half a century ago. they were commonplace—
an inviting target for snowballs, as we recall.
We note, too, that the women employed in several store*
up and down the street are appearing in the period cos­
tumes of the pre-tum-of-the-century era. Graceful they
are, too. That's an idea that should really take hold.
And have you noticed Max Myers on Ids costume days?
A real fashion plate out of the past!
The success or failure of Centennial Days depends in
large part on the spirit exemplified in the above paragraphs.

Sometime before the turn of the century. Hastings went
on a tree-planting spree that helped make it the attractive
place It is today. As of the present, however, many a tree
is being cut down, sometimes with good reason and fre­
quently for reasons that are not self evident.
But the important point is, are we replanting on an
adequate scale? It takes a hard maple sapling nearly a
quarter of a century to mature into a really adequate shade
tree. So, any planting we do now is for our children and
grandchildren to enjoy.

We have heard "old timers” here—that la old timers who
were old timers when we were a youngster—state that at
the time of the big shade tree planting, Hastings was tree­
less and unattractive since most of the original timber had
been cut down-for building material, firewood, etc.
So, If we haven't an adequate program going already,
it is time to start—past due, perhaps.
The Hastings business district, or at least that portion
of It along State Street is. essentially, two lines of store

fronts separated fay a wide, high speed throughway. It is
usually passible to drive from one end of the district to
------------- —
----------.-------------street. As a mgaf|s Qf-getting through the district fast, the
roadway Is fine. Z-o-o-m —and you have It made. But
usually working your way from one side to the other Is a
matter of patient waiting. This is not an ideal situation
for a central business district where the convenience of the
shopper should come first.
Many larger communities are meeting this problem, at
least in part, by the development of downtown malls.
Possibly that isn’t the answer here because it would mean
giving up too much prime parking space along the Street.
But we should at least consider a return to angle parking
and a much slower speed limit in the business area. This
would facilitate parking. The slower traffic pace would make
it easier to cross the street and would probably discourage
much of the traffic that goes speeding through.
The district as far as possible must be made attractive
and convenient for shoppers if Main Street is to give the
Shopping Centers any significant competition.

Saranac Is widely adopted
in states having a climate
similar to Michigan. It is now
recommended for all of Michl-

states in the Com Belt.
Prior to 1967, Vernal was
number one, because special­
ists thought Flammande types
were not winter irnrdy enough
for Michigan and areas like
it. But six years of trials have
shown that Saranac can stand
up well. Average Michigan
yields for six years were 5J

fertilizer levels (at least 200
pounds of potassium per acre)

the First United Methodist Church Thursday, April 8,
with Mra. Merrill Karcher hostess, assisted by Mrs. Cheste Long and Mrs. Marguerite Staffer. Also flitting about
being helpful was the recently returned Floridian, Mrs.
Gertrude Thomas.
The Hastings Centennial was discussed at the business
session pesided over by the vice-president, Mrs. Eugene
Dalman. Plans were presented and committees ap­
pointed to plan displays depicting Gardens of 1871-1971
and placed in the social room of the Hastings National
Bank.
. Two gardening books will be presented to the Has­
tings Public Library during Centennial Week in memory
of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Rogers who originated The
Thomapple Garden Club.
The program was a Free-For-All and All-FOr-Free
round table discussion of new varieties, new techniques
in 1971. A bit of the methods of former years crept
into the discussion. The sweet, sweet sweetcorn matur­
ing two weeks early, the Tiny Tim wee, wee cucumbers,
Spaghetti Squash and several Hybrid Roees were dis­
cussed. The "Shoebox” gardens for the city dwellers were
explained. Then, but of course! the Herb Gardener
piped in her bit of advice to anyone? who would listen,
the value of the kitchen herb garden.
Tbs "Make the Moat of What You Have" was clev­
erly worked out in two arrangements by Carol Benner.
On the dessert table was placed an arrangement using a
shaded blue-green base with yellow daffodils placed
about the base and covering the pinholder. The tall
green stems placed upright in the center of the holder
resembled and took the place of tapers- Cleverl

Jim Fitzgerald writes for the Lapeer County Prms
and for the last several years his weekly columns have
also been carried by a number of COUNTY SEAT PA­
PERS. He writes a controversial feature called. IF IT
FITZ. This Is a quote from the Detroit Free Press-----“Fitzgerald's column has such a fine reputation, he
could have his pick of Jobs with major newspaper*,
but he prefers to stay with the rural weekly. Fitz­
gerald, a MB.U. graduate, is considered a radical­
liberal, always controversial, is considered a icono­
clastic writer in Lapeer."
For the next few weeks The Banner will carry "If It
Fitz" as a trial run for BANNER READERS. If you like
it let us know. It could become a regular Banner column
if its popularity warrants such a decision.
IF IT FITZ by JIM FITZGERALD
The 420 million hoopla over the Alt-Frazier prizefight
reminded me again of an important freedom i
That is the freedom to not give a damn.
It seemed the whole world was turned on by that
fight. It was broadcast live on TV in Yugoslavia, at 4
o'clock In the morning, for Lord's sake. People actually
paid hundreds of bucks each for seats near the ring
where those two brutes belted each other. Incredible.
I’ve never been to a hone race bcause I'm not con­
vinced the horses enjoy it. I’ve never shot a deer be­
cause I've never been attacked by a deer. I*ve never owned
a snowmobile because they make sense only when you
want to go where a warm car won't go and I've never
wanted to go there.
So I can relax and sip my tea when the boys get in
terrific hassles over such earth-shaking questions as:
1. Should racetracks be run by guys who belong to
the Mafia according to testimony given before Congres­
sional Investigating committees? (Such testimony never
leads to arrests because Efrem Zimbalist, Jr., doeant
attend Congressional hearings for fear of bombs).
2. Is it right for greedy, brutal hunters to kill female
deer, thus preventing docs from spawning bucks to be
"harvested” by nice blue-eyed guys who go hunting sim­
ply to enjoy the fresh air — but come home angry If they
haven't shot anything bigger than a squirrel?
3. Should two-year-old children be allowed to drive
their snowmobiles alone across freeways after 10 p.m.
or should it be required that they tow a sled carrying
two people whose combined ages add up to at least 12?
It is arguments like those that make me the worlds
champion coat-holder. I couldn't care less. Of course.
I figure I'm bolding coats for a bunch of idiots, but . . .
to each his own. If I owned a snowmobile, a deer rifle
and a season's pass to the racetrack. I'd trade all three
for a quiet weekend of good reading and Indoor sinning
So it was with me and Muhammed All and Joe Fra­
zier. There is no more stupid activity than two men
beating on each other until one of them falls uncon­
scious. It is not a sport. It Is the old Lionj»-vs-the-Christian scene with the drooling Romans jamming the coli­
seum in search of blood. It's ambulance

profitable.
I don’t blame Muhammed and Joe and their

didn't someone else would.

The founding fathers who came to this land, came
to establish a Christian nation, realizing the church
should play the prominent part in Its establishment
along with the home.
Where were the moral principals of society enacted?
In the home and the church. Where were the educa­
tional standards established? In the home and the
church. Where were the spiritual values of mankind
realized and practiced. In the home and the church.
In this modem age is the home and church fulfill­
ing its mission? It is an established fact If this na­
tion is going to give more attention to character build­
ing; It must be Jn the home and church. How else can
our civilization be saved?
We must agree that locally and denominationally
churches In the United States seem to be undergoing
changes. Whether these changes be for better or worse
remains to be seen. Whatever the answers, and there
are many, the improvement will come when American
homes have a rebirth of spiritual togetherness. There
is a-small cloud appearing which might indicate such
a relationship. The church also must re-evaluate its
priorities, doing so with sound judgment. With a greater
emphasis on personal commitment of the individual.
The church society is made up of individuals. There­
fore the local society is responsible for the effec­
tiveness of the individual In that society. How do we
arrive at that unity between the individual and the
church society? Oneness In Christ! Service! In other,
words getting back to the primary business of winning
the hearts and minds of persons. We must concede
that there must be a greater emphasis upon winning
individuals, to the Christian life. Jesus put people first.
Thus it culminates Into the realisation chat the peo­
ple of a given society in a Spirit of Christian unity
can be a channel for the uplift of any community to
Christ.
i
In closing, I ask, how many local (especially rural)
societies have maintained a continual service to its com­
munity for a hundred and six years— better than three
generations? Such is the time The Kilpatrick Church of
the United Brethren tn Christ, local society has ren­
dered to its community.
May Pod’s Blessing and direction be on each society.

Rutland Township continues
to insist that the City of
Hastings pay taxes on several
buildings at the municipal
airport. In a letter to the
council, the Rutland board
said the property, according
to recent equalization figures
Is assessed at 232,000.00.
Ctty Attorney Paul Siegel
told the council he has argued
the City's position that mu­
nicipal airports are tax ex­
empt. but the Rutland board
of review disagrees. Atty.
Siegel said Rutland officials
have Indicated their intent to
seek a legal opinion on the
matter. If the township de­
mands the city pay taxes, then
Atty. Siegel suggested coun­
cilmen pay the tax assess­
ment under protest and begin
a court suit for a refund.
Several councilmen. appa­
rently disgusted by the town­
ship action, sarcastically said,
those who think the airport Is
a money maker should try to
operate one.

�Begin Physicians’ Center
Expansion at Pennock
Richard Fluke, director of Pennock Hospital, reports
that work has begun for expansion of the Physicians
Center at Pennock Hospital. The estimated cost is
$130,000, according to' the building permit. The facility
will provide office space for James Atkinson. MB., Jack
Brown. MB,, and Douglas Castleman, MB.
The present Physician? Center was completed in
January of 1070 and at the present time has one empty
office. The new addition will eventually accommodate
eight physicians, although only-one half of the building
will be finished off at this time.
The two buildings will be Joined by a common entry­
way with an elevator. The elevator will service both
buildings as well as the basement of the new building
which will include a meeting room/classroom for hospital
use.
.
The Physicians Center is owned and operated by
Pennock Hospital and each physician pays rent accord­
ing to the square footage that he occupies. This rent
covers the amortization the loan as well as the daily
operational expenses.
Fluke emphasized that income received from hospital
patients Is not used for the construction or operation
of the Physicians Center. The Board of Trustees of
Pennock Hospital initiated the idea of a Physicians Cen­
ter in order to attract new physicians and provide better
medical coverage for the citizens of our area.
Since completion of the first Physicians Center, many
hospitals throughout the state of Michigan have visited
Hastings to look at the building and develop plans of
their own. The location of a physicians center at a hos­
pital not only provides better medical coverage for the
hospital and community but also is of a greater con­
venience to a patient utilizing the physicians' facilities
as.well as outpatient laboratory and X-ray facilities of
the hospital.
The present construction is scheduled for completion
in early August. AUerdlng Construction Company of
Hastings is the general contractor for the project.

White Cane Week Focuses

Attention on Needs of Blind
This year White Cane Week will be observed in
Michigan from April 18th through April 24th. The Has­
tings Lions Club and over SOO other Lions Clubs through­
out Michigan will team up during this one week which
Is set aside to acquaint the public with State Laws which
have been adapted for the protection of the blind.
Elementary schools, drivers license bureaus and police
departments will assist In this educational effort by dis­
tributing leaflets furnished by the Lions of Michigan
in cooperation with our local Lions Club.
The White Cane calls for thoughtfulness, friendly
appreciation and a personal responsibility for the safety
of the individual carrying it. Thousands of White Canes
have been furnished free of charge to blind people
throughout the state. It is the alm and plan of the
Lions to provide every blind person with a White Cane
— the symbol of blindness —as a measure of protection
for him.
State Legislation In 1936 Included an ordinance
granting the right of way to a person carrying a White
Cone. The purpose of WHITE CANE WEEK is pri­
marily an educational one —working toward that day
when all our citizens will know and recognize the White
Cane as the symbol of blindness and will give under­
standing and courteous assistance to bearers of the
White Cane whenever such opportunities present them­
selves.

Social Security Information
By Bert Pylman
Social Security Agent
Q. Tm 62, but my husband is only 59. I have been a
homemaker all of my married life and have never work­
ed under social security. Can I collect monthly social
security retirement benefits?
A. No. Since you have no work credit of your own
under social security, your husband must be entitled to
social security benefits before you can collect monthly
cash benefits. He will become eligible for reduced re­
tirement benefits at age 62 or full benefits at age 65.
Q. Next year, I’ll be 62. If I retire then, how much
will I collect from social security?
A. Talk to the people at the social security office to
get an approximation of the dollar amount of your
monthly benefit. The earlier you retire, the less you get.
Your basic retirement is figured on your average earn­
ings covered by social security up to age 66. If you elect
to retire as soon as you are 62, your benefit would be
20 percent less than the amount you could expect at
65. The benefits are reduced 5/9 of cne percent for
each month before you're 65.
X By the way. if you decide to retire next year—or any
time before age 65—don't drop any private health in­
surance you may have. Medicare health Insurance is not
tied to retirement benefits. You must be 65 or over to
be eligible for Medicare.
•
Q. I am ty years old and I collect zocial security bene­
fits. In Jun A I had a heart attack.Can I also apply for
social security disability benefits?
A. No. DlsamliUHjehents are not paid tri addition to
ether monthly rcx-liT security benefits.
Q. I neter married, and I support my parents because
they have nq Income of their own. I have worked un­
der social security since I was 18. If I died, could my
parents collect social security benefits on my work rec­
ord?
A. Yes, they would be eligible for monthly cash bene­
fits at age 62 or later if. at the time of your death, you
still provide at least half their support. But, they must
apply for benefits and be able io prove their depen­
dency on you within two years of your death.
In addition to survivors benefits, your parents also
would be eligible for Medicare Health Insurance at age
65.
The Banner, in cooperation with the Social Security
Administration, is publishing a series of questions and
answers on social security subjects. If you haye a ques­
tion, the Social Security Administration will be glad to

Area sports fans should plan now to attend the
30th annual running of the Hastings Relays which
will be held on Johnson Field a week from Satur­
day, April 24. Athletic Director Jock Clarey is an­
ticipating that 18 or 19 high schools will bring their
top runners and fieldmen here for the early Spring
classic.
The defending champion is Portage Northern,
which raced away from the field last April accumulating
50 points. Charlotte was second with 30%. Portage Cen­
tral had 21, Pennfield 21%, Otsego It, Marshall and
Plainwell 15, Portland and Grand Ledge 14, Harper
Creek 11%, Springfield 11, Wayland and Hastings 8.

Relays record for that event is now 2:33.1.)
Hastings also took a second In the 440 relay and a
third in the mUe. On that 440 team were Owen Thomas.
Bob Brooks, Nell Will and Bob Branch. On the mile
relay team were Bob Smith, Newell Heath, Harold
Fisher and Stan Pierce.

BUI Frank reports that Coaches Jim Stone of Kel­
logg CC and Chuck Turner of BatUe Creek Central
returned from a basketball clinic held in Houston dur­
ing the NCAA finals with word that college and high
school basketball may do away with the one shot free
throw in the near future. Why? Coaches have learned
that possession is worth 1.4 points so why take a free
throw for only one point? If the rule goes through, no
team will take a one shot free throw until it reaches the

one-and-onc situation. Remember when a team had the
option of shooting a free throw, or taking the ball out

,

of bounds?

Bill Hecker's cage team, champions of the Hastings
City League, won their first game in the State Class “C •
Recreation Tournament when they defeated Mason, 81,
68, but lost the next morning to Holly Hotel, 73-62
Hecker Insurance of Nashville has sponsored the team
for three years, getting new uniforms from Bill this pau
season. They won the Hastings crown in 1908-69. fin­
ished second to the “teachers" in 1969-70, and went
undefeated last season. Players included Jerry Reese,
who coached Maple Valley High to its best cage season
ever, and Larry Lenz, Greg Hoeffler, Mel Ruohonen, Ted
Eggleston, T#rry Jordan, Bob Carmony, Merle Martin,
Dennis Ranson and Larry Filter.

Short Takes — Hastings' Steve Strickland is now
billed as the "slugging sophomore" in the press releases
coming out of Ferris State College. Steve, former Has­
tings High ace. homered in the top of the 7th Thurs­
day, April 8. to seal Perris’ 7-1 nightcap victory which
gave the Bulldogs a doubleheader baseball sweep over
Calvin College at Grand Rapids. Steve also stroked a
two-run single In the opener to put that game out of
reach, 2-0. Steve figured In the scoring when Perris
went to Rochester and split an opening day twin bill
with Oakland University. He singled twice in the open­
er which Ferris won, 1-0, and got another single In the
second game. . . . Elkin R. Isaac, who left Albion College
to spend the past academic year on the faculty of the
University of the Pacific in Stockton, Calif., h returning
to his post as the Briton’s athletic director. Isaac is
well-known in this area, and at one time coached at
Eaton Rapids when the Greyhounds were in the same
league with Hastings. . . . Don Lund, assistant athletic
director at Michigan, suggests that State prep basket­
ball final games be split into two doublcheaders, rather
than the current four-in-one-day grind and held on
consecutive afternoons. . .

Tips to Tiptoe Thru Tulips By
If you have tulips blooming this Spring and want
them lo do well next year, don't cut the stems and
leaves off after the flower is gone.
William Carlson, Michigan State University horti­
culturist. says that stems and leaves are food sources
for the bulb which provides the flower next year. If you
want color in your garden after the tulips bloom, be
recommends planting annual flowers between the tuhps.
You’ll only have to dip the tulip bulbs when they
begin to rhow Inferior flowers—or no flowers at alL
You can plant tulip bulbfl any time from September

to early December. Just be sure the weather is con­
sistently cool enough so the bulbs won’t start growing
immediately.
If you feel that the tulips don’t last long enough in
the Spring, Carlson suggests planting several different
varieties. By choosing some early, midseason and late
bloomers you can stretch the blooming period to six or
eight weeks. A good garden supplier should be able to
recommend varieties.
Tulips are suitable in shaded or sunny areas, but
plant them far enough from the house so that the
warmth of the building won’t make the bulbs start
growing earlier than normal, Carlson cautions.

Pine, Spruce for Planting
Both time and nursery supplies are narrowing down
for private landowners in Michigan who plan to order
ptoUiw «&lt;*■&gt;..from th. Prosiinwiu flf N»Xm»l Hfsources to cover reforestation and game Improvement
projects this Spring.
DNR foresters report that April 16 is the deadline
for requesting reforestation supplies which are now re­
duced to pine and spruce seedlings. That same date is
also the cut-off point for ordering game habitat stock
which remains in limited volumes,
SUU available for reforestation projects are about
800,000 White pine seedlings. 2 million red pine seed­
lings,

Already sold out by the Department are some 500,000 white pine, white spruce, and Norway spruce trans­

individual bundles of 500 seedlings. Each of these
packets is offered at the approximate production cost

Man’s Filter’
The soil can be a “thinking
man's filter'' to prevent pol­
lution—If it Isn't overloaded
with potential pollutants, con­
tends a Michigan State Uni­
versity soil scientist.
“Soil can absorb "liquids,
Alter solids and absorb gases,”
reports A. Earl Erickson. "And
soil microorganisms can
transform
and
decompose
most natural materials.
“But there are limits to
what the soil can handle.
You'll probably cause pollu­
tion if you put on more than
40 tons per year of natural
organic matter or 150 to 200
pounds per year of nitrogen.
"You could put on anywhere
from 200 to 4,000 pounds of
phosphorus, depending on soli
type.”
Erickson says farmers who
test their soils know when
they arc reaching these limits,
so they avoid using too much
fertiliser.
“Proper fertilisation con­
tributes little to the loss of
nutrients in drainage waters,"

stances, less than 10 pounds
of nitrate are lost per acre
per year—a quantity equal to
that added through rainfall.
In experiments, phosphorus
lost was less than one-tenth
of a pound per acre per year."

Joint Lenten

Services Have
Dual Meaning
The last meeting in the
seven-week scries of Lenten
services sponsored by the
First United Methodist, First
Presbyterian and Grace Lu­
theran churches held at
Grace Lutheran, was con­
cluded last Thursday.
Pastor Michael Anton of
Grace was the speaker,' He
summarised
the
possible
benefits derived from thi^
Joint effort. Getting better
acquainted with each other
both socially and religiously
leads to a better under­
standing and this can lead
to greater tolerance toward
each other's religious be­
liefs.
All members of the Chris- •
tian Church regardless of
their various names have
many more things in com­
mon than they have in* dif­
ference. Each offers a pro­
gram as a guideline for our
daily lives in our relations
with our fellow men. Also
we are assured of a peace
of mind and a feeling of
well being through faith in
a living Savior, Rev. Anton
said.
Special thanks are due to
Dr. Stanley Buck of the
First United
Methodist
Church, Rev. Willard Cur­
tis and Rev. Harvey Beach
of First Presbyterian and
Rev. Anton of Groce Luth­
eran for making possible
this
series -of
Christian
Fellowship.
Thanks to Mrs. Phyllis
Settles. Mrs
Vera Pryor.
Mrs. Wade Shook and Frank
Rothfuss, soloists, and Mrs.
Donna Buehl, organist.

POSTSCRIPTS
COUNTY VS STATE OPERATION

There wu some concern these past weeks M volun­
teer worker* for the Easter Seal Sale were LoM at
aome homes that they had Easter Seal* through the

from Grand Rapids at considerable coat.
These misunderstandings will be worked out for
Barry County when the local Crippled Childrens Com­
mittee,—Mra Jessie Pieroe. chairman; Mr. Ken Robbe;
Mra. Marian fiorby and Ed Wietnlk as consultant, meet
with a representative from Grand Rapids, at the Has­
tings City Bank. The local committee feel that at least
a portion of the funds collected here should stay in
Barry County as * reserve fund as it used to be done.
In tiw Hastings area this year Mrs John (Chris)

Since the Crippled Children and Adult State Society
reorganised, in this Instance, The Grand Valley Easter
Seal Society in Grand Rapids, serving Allegan, Barry,
Ionia, Kent. Montcalm and Ottawa Counties, there have
been conflicting opinions about the local functioning in
several of the counties involved. The proposed confer­
ence will resolve these problems.

CALL IT SUPPLY AND DEMAND
As most everyone knows by now this is the Hastings
area Centennial Year and that accounts for what has
and is happening al Jacobs Pharmacy.
Stashed away in a box upstairs (where they had
been "Lo. these many years.”) were stacks of Souvenir
Post Card* album* &lt;alx picture card*) of early Has­
tings well before 1900. This notation on the front cover
indicates how long ago—“Published by Fred L. Heath
de Carve th, The Druggists, Hastings, Mich.”
One of the enterprising and always pleasant clerks,
suggested these were timely to sell to Centennial en­
thusiasts, so what used to sell for either a nickel (or
maybe a dime) went on sate for 75c and they are sell­
ing like the proverbial “hot cakes.” Il Is interesting to
note that the whole album, Intact, maybe—“Without
writing, other than address, this album J* mailable for
One Cent" It is believed that the flrat picture, that of
State Street, te the oldest on file showing the oM bank
tower and the tower across the street on the hotel at
the comer of N. Michigan and State where Reahm Mo­
tor Sales is now located.
Finding this early merchandise was not only lucky,
but almost a stroke of genius in action. At least it’s a
good and profitable way (they are worth every penny)
to clean out the storeroom.
As this 1* written there are very few albums left. One
of these should be sept to the Chrveths two daughters
—bet Mra. Roger Wlswell will attend to that.

IT SOMETIMES HAPPENS THAT WAY
The account of outstanding meeting of the April
2nd Women's Club meeting last week indicated that
it was a complete success however, the speaker. Mrs.
Ada Rippey of Sturgis, (and she was excellent) speak­
ing from a "Strictly Personal Point of View" might
have bad a slightly different version of the day. Here’s
her story:
.
Her car was filled with all of the articles of dis­
play that a|e would use in her talk and she started
on her mdhry way. Not far out of Bturgls she was stop­
ped by officers because the new license plates were not
on her car. She had to return home and borrowing a
friends car, her cargo had to be transferred to the other
auto, all very time consuming, but again she was on
her way—not quite so merry.
Arriving at the Hastings parting lot behind sched­
ule, unusual haste was neei—ry in again «mkvutlng
the car for the preparation of her talk, ft was very
overcast that day—you guessed it. she forgot to turn
the car light* off.
Following a delightful afternoon the same reverse
procedure was followed fpr the return trip to Bturgls.
In the drivers seat, and about to wave a happy good-by,
the motion fell to a gesture of desperation—the battery
was dead. It should be recorded that one exhibit item,
from her collection, had apparently been misplaced,
(lost) however, the committee know it will be found
and then returned to its rightful owner—just one more
disconcerting feature of this journey. If it had been

April 1st Instead of 2nd the “comedy of errors” might
have been aocnewhat more understandable in the light
of Al) Fools Day, but Alas, it was all becoming a bit
too much.
Eventually, the garage men had the “borrowed” car
running again and Mra. Rippey departed-ln a stoic state
but also one of apprehension.
To this lovely lady we would like to say, In, we hope,
a consoling way. “It's all in a day’s work," and you
made a great hit with your audience here.

EXPLANATIONS IN ADVANCE
Wonder if Mike Klovanich has heard the discussion
around town about tree cutting. It might be a good
idea to publish the policy of hbpdepartment about this
topic before some similar public cation, like the fol­
lowing story from the Coldwater newspaper, might de­
velop.
The annual general meeting of the Upper St. Jo­
seph Environment Council, Inc., has been set tenta­
tively for March 25. At a recent meeting, the coun­
cil discussed the Branch County Highway Commis­
sion's roadside tree-cutting policies. Following an
earlier meeting of interested organization^ and the
•county highway commission, the environmental coun­
cil moved to contact state and federal authorities
to determine if the present extent of tree cutting is
necessary.
Some, of course, applies to County Road Commission
too.

STATE STREET SCENE
As folks in these parts know Wednesday and Thurs­
day (April 7 de 8) were beautiful, balmy, bright and
sunny days. (There was a general exodus of dozens of
families on those days, headed for Florida and points
south. How could they leave this beautiful touch of
Spring.)
In witness of that statement there were numerous
sights about town confirming the lovely weather.
In two-by-two parade fashion Mra. Mike (Linda)
Corrigan had her class of youngsters walking along
downtown and seeing the many antique exhibits al­
ready in some store windows. They were on their way
back to school after visiting the water works and en­
joying in general the exhilaration of the climate Wed­
nesday. In response to this the youngsters were vibrant,
gay and happy.
It was on State St., sitting in a car that Larry Hay­
wood formerly of Delton, now of Portland, greeted his
friend Nancy Brown cf Middleville and she didn’t know
him at first. He's in the Centennial mood and now has
a beard—that was the reason. This was at noontime
and Nancy was hurrying to stop at the Ben Frank­
lin Store when she said, “What a difference a beard
makes. I think I like it though.” Nancy, whose maiden
name was Count, is a registered nurse and works several
days a week at Pennock Hospital. She was excited, not
only about the lovely weather but the approaching
marriage the Saturday before Easter of her brother,
Robert Oook; the ceremony to take place here at the
Presbyterian Church and his bride. Rose Cool, of Free­
port. Would that be your daughter or granddaughter
Jim?

Across the street the same day, Wednesday, there
was a carnation bouquet on the check-out counter at
the V &amp; S store. It was in honor of the birthday of
checker. Mra. Leonard Koutz. whose birthday really
was the next day, April 8th, but that was her day off
Mra. K. whose flrat name is Evaline should have been
Evelyn like the name of her mother’s friend but when
the birth certificate came it was Evallne so
the
way it stayed. She Uvea in the Lake Odessa neighbor­
hood and when asked what she would do to celebrate
her birthday, the reply was, "Weather Uke this well
all paint.”

Wonder how many folks or if any Wednesday, driv­
ing on, or west of, 8. Jefferson BL, at sunset time, no­
ticed the brilliant illumination of The Cross above St
Rose of Lima Church. It was a gloriously spectacular
vision of strength and inspiration. Somehow, although
not nature per se, it recalled the famous lines, "The
world is too much with us late and soon, and getting
and spendlj^ wq lay waste our powers, little we see in
Nature that is oura.”

Woodland Farmer Receives
Special Corn Growing Award
John J. Smith, R1 Woodland, has been named to
‘receive a special award for his excellence In corn grow­
ing.
Announced by James Smith, Woodland, represent­
ing the producers of Funks G-Hybrids the award is
in recognition of Smith's production of a 138J bushel
corn yield.
Thia high yield is being officially entered in the
Nation-wide record books of Project :200. Project :200 is
a high yield com growing project aimed at increasing
corn yields and per-acre profits. Corn growers through­
out the U. 8. and Canada are participating.
Smith's high yield was made with Funk's G—4444.
a high capacity hybrid variety specially suited to this
area. He planted his Project:200 field on May 6. 1970.
in 40-inch rows. Plant population at harvest was 20.­
500 per acre. Smith applied a total of 540 pounds of
fertilizer per acre as starter and sidedress. A Herbicide
was used. He harvested his Project :200 yield on Oct. 23.
1970. at which time the grain had reached 27.9 per­
cent moisture.
Under the national Project:200 rules, a minimum
of two acres must be harvested from not less than four
adjacent rows running the full length of the field. All
figures must be validated by a disinterested witness.
The information gained from Project:200 high yield
projects will be computerized. The resulting facts con­
cerning successful management practices will be shared
with aD corn growers.

How to Buy Turkeys
Broiler*—are—young birds 2 to 4 months old, weigh­
ing 4 to 8 pounds. Prepare like young chicken—broil,
fry. or barbecue.
:
' ’.
Young Toms—arw—male birds under one year, weigh­
ing 12 to 35 pounds. Best when broiled, roasted, braised,
ed, braised, fricasseed, or fried.
Young Hens — are—female birds under one ypar,
weighing 8 to 18 pounds. Delicious when broiled, roast­
ed. braised, fricasseed, or fried.
Old Toms—are—birds of more, than one year old.
.ThdlKre large In size, with a wide range of weights.
Good quality meat for roasting. High serving yield per
pound.
'
. ’•
How Mach Ta Bay: Allow aboiit 1 pound per* serv­
ing for turkeys weighing less than 12 pounds. Allow
about 'i to
pounds per serving for birds weighing
over 12 pounds. The larger sixes of turkeys are the most
economical on a cost-per-serving basis, if you can use
that much turkey!
A Size and Style To Fit Ail Families: Take your pick
of the style and size turkey you want. There’s one to
fit every family whether it be a whole turkey, weigh­
ing 4 to 24 pounds, or the newer and marvelously con­
venient turkey parts, turkey roils, turkey roasts or
turkey slices in gravy. Your choice depends only on the
style and kind you prefer, the size of your family, the
time you have lor preparation and the amount of con­
venience you want. Cost per serving on almost all is
remarkably close together; from 20 to 50 cents gener­
ally.

Jim, the son of Mr. and
Mrs Kendall Steele of 14786

at Lakewood where he is an
FFA member. He does a lol

Sodding is ‘Instant Lawn’
Sodding can give you a weed-free “instant" lawn
that can be established any time from early Bring
through mid Fall.
Michigan State University turf researchers offer some
important guidelines for establishing this turf.
First, sod rooting is most rapid if your sod .Is U to
V, inches thick. In other words, sod should have only
that much soil clinging to the grass when you lay IL
And underlying soli should be moist when aod is
transplanted onto the site. This helps roots establish
themselves quickly and firmly.
The soil planting bed for sodding should be prepar­
ed just as it is for seeding.
Transplanting sod on a subsoil should be avoided, be­
cause the sod won’t root as readily as It would on top­
soil.
The sodded area should be watered to a soil depth
of six Inches Immediately after transplanting. Then, the
grass should be given a midday watering every day feetwo weeks.

Do cigarettes with tow levels of tar and nicotine
make any difference?
Tlve proof is not yet in. But recent evidence pre­
sented by Dr. Ernest L Wynder, president of the Ameri­
can Health Foundation suggests that low levels of tar
—the substance most associated with lung cancer­
may slightly reduce a smoker's risk of developing that
disease But the slightly reduced risk is apparent only
in smokers who have filtered cigarettes with tow levels
of tar for at least ir'years. The research was publish­
ed in a September issue of the Journal of the Ameri­
can Medical Association.
Experiments with smoking dogs who developed lung
cancer and emphysema show similar effects. Cigarettes
with filter tips that reduce the tar content caused less
extensive lung damage than non-filtered cigarettes.
Nicotine, however, is the compound most smokers
get hooked on. Nicotine constricts the small arteries,
cuts down the flow of btood through the body, trig­
gers a discharge of sugar from the liver into the btood
stream. Researchers also suspect that the hormonal up­
set in the blood caused by nicotine may be detrimental
to .normal functioning.
Lower doses of nicotine probably cause less distress
to the body. But people hooked on nicotine tend to
smoke more cigarettes when they switch to ones with
low levels of nicotine. So they wipe out any benefit*.
Tara and nicotine, however, are only two of the
dangerous ingredients in cigarette smoke. Carbon mon­
oxide reduces the oxygen-carrying capacity of the btood
Chemicals called phenols first stop and then destroy
the small hairlike mechanisms, cilia, that keep tiu:
lungs clean and ward off infection.
There are no safe cigarettes—regardless of the levels
of tars and nicotine. To find out more about ways to
quit smoking, cot tact the Michigan TB and Respiratory
Disease Association 403 Seymour Avenue. Lansing 48014.
They.have some timely suggestions.

^Accordlngto Beard, "When thatch becomes more

than one-half inch thick lawn health often &lt;tetertorates." He says the following undesirable co"dl“°^n.CJU1
result when a heavy thatch accumulation
1. Tiie soil environment is tipped in favor of lawn
disease organisms such as leaf spot, stripe smut, pow­
dery mildew and Fusarium blight.
2. Grass crowns are elevated above the roil to the
nolnt where drought resistance is reduced.
P 3. A tight mat of thatch greaUy slows the.movement
of air and water into the soil. Water movement is al­
most stopped when the thatch is-dry.
'
"To determine the amount of thatch present, cut a
pie-shaped wedge in the lawn two inches deep, saye
Beard. "Then remove the wedge and examine it in
cross section. Examinations from the lawn surface
aren’t effective," he says.
Causes of thatch formation are not well known. Beard
notes, however, that acid soil conditions, grass clip­
pings, high nitrogen applications, vigorously growing
varieties, heavy watering and heavy (clay) soils may
contribute to thatch building.
Where thatch is already a problem. Beard recom­
mends removing the thatch layer with a vertical renova­
tion machines. These machines are available al many
rental agencies and have knives or tines mounted verti­
cally on a reel removing the thatch with a cutting oi
pulling action.
Beard says that under heavy thatch conditions It
may be necessary to run the machine over the lawn
several times.

THE HASTINGS BANNER—Wednesday. April 14. 1971

19

�ment of York state folks which headed for Michigan
in the early days of our commonwealth. Early in Sep­
tember 1844 they started for the peninsula eUte. With
them was their son Oliver, a lad of seven years. At Buf­
falo they met and soon became acquainted with Mr.
and Mra. Seymour Andrus, who, with their two chil­
dren, were moving to Barry County where they already
had a farm. Mr. Greenfield had calculated to settle in
Genesee County, Michigan; but what Mr. Andrus said
about Hastings and vicinity which he had first visited
in 1841. caused the Greenfields to change their plans
and decide upon locating in or near this city. The two
families made the journey together from Buffalo to
Hastings, traveling by boat to Detroit, by the Michigan
Central railroad from that city to Marshall, and from
Marshall to Hastings by team.
Though but a young boy, Mr. Greenfield can vividly
recall that it look a whole day to get from Detroit to
Marshall by roll. The track consisted of wooden string­
ers fastened to the ties, and spiked to these stringers
were the iron straps over which the dinky locomotive
and flimsy coaches made their way. That there was
"graft" in those days was evidenced by the fact that at
each station a railway employee passed through the
cars and carefully counted the passengers. This pro­
ceeding excited the boy’s curiosity to such an extent
that he has never forgotten that incident of the jour­
ney nor its purpose of foiling if possible the conductor’s disposition to pocket part of the fares. The Jour­
ney from Marshall to Hastings consumed two whole
days. Mr. Greenfield cannot recall the route traversed
nor any incident. He remembers of thinking that it
was a very tedious affair, and that he heartily wished
to see theendjrftt,___________________
_____ __
At last the two families reached Hastings. They
came down what is now Creek Street. The town was
then: A hotel kept by George Fuller where the Ford’s
hotel building now stands. There was then a house
on the corner occupied now by Maynard’s livery barn.
H. J. Kenfield had a store on the site of Cook Sc Senta’s
grocery. Near the hotel was Abner Parmelee's dwelling,
and near where the roller mill stands was the log house
of Levi Chase. On the National Bank corner Henry A.
Goodyear had a store. He lived‘ in the back
• end- of
- -it.

I found this
Prom one of the old Benner ecrap
most unusual story of what Hastings was like in 1844.
So why not take a short vacation and go back to the
Hastings of long ago. You can park any where, no
meters, no trouble, stick around as long as you want to.

Interesting Incidents Of Pioneer Days
Told By A Man Who Can Recall Them Vividly.
There are few persons living who can relate their
peisonal experiences in Hastings, and tell how the town
looked. 63 years ago. (This article was run in the Ban­
ner of Nov. 21, 1907.) But there is one resident of this
city who has very vivid recollections of those days;
they were indelllbly stamped upon his memory, for he
saw and heard and feU with the eagerness of boy­
hood. He is not given to parading his early experiences^
and if you find out what Oliver H. Greenfield knew
about the pioneer days of Hastings you would have to
put the questions to him yourself, as did our repre­
sentative.

and the front was occupied with a limited stock of
merchandise, mostly such as could be bartered with Che
Indians. Across the street from Henry Goodyear’S was
the frame house, the,first in the town, which was owned
and occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Willard. Hayes. About
where Chidester’s clothing store now stands was the
home of Vespasian Young, father of Oscar Young and
Mrs. Mary Geer, John W. Stebbins, father of Marcxfr
and William, lived on the corner occupied by the Nor­
man Bailey house. Elijah Alden's home was about
where the residence of Allen Jones now stands. John
W Buckle, father of Mrs. Kep Silsbee, lived about
where the postoffice is now located. Henry W. Jen­
nings, the town’s first lawyer, had his home and of­
fice on the site of John Be&amp;smer’e Jewelry store. There
was a. house on the corner where Dr. Lowry now lives
The courthouse and jail, combined in one building, oc­
cupied the center of court house square, and was sur­
rounded by grubs and trees. The grist mill was op­
posite John Bronson’s present home on Grand Street,
power being furnished from the upper dam on Fall
Creek. A saw mill stood a little to the south and west
of the electric light plant, the power being derived from
the lower dam on Fall Creek. This saw mill was the
center of interest for the boys, for here there was noise
and something doing. The village schoolhouse was back
of the home of Mrs. Nathan Barlow. The little natural
terrace you now see in Jefferson Street, just east of the
National Bank, then extended down to Goodyear Bros.
Hardware, tiience diagonally across State Street to
where Frank Horton’s grocery is located. This made an
abrupt rise of six or eight feet necessary as you went
on State Street from Fuller's tavern. There were atumpo,
grubs and clumps of bushes through the main street
at that time, and the roadway zig-zagged like a rail
fense to dodge the obstructions. And that was how Has­
tings looked to the boy Oliver Greenfield in September,
1844. All about it was woods—seemingly interminable
forest, save only the little clearings made at widely
separated intervals by the hardy pioneers.
Hiram Greenfield bought 40 acres just south of the
Hubbell farm east of Hastings. A little clearing had
been made and a house commenced by the previous
owner. Greenfield, senior, completed the house as soon
as possible and the family moved into it. Ambrose Hub­
bell then lived on the farm he took up from the gov­
ernment, and a little northwest from his home was the
home of a relative named Soules.
Young Oliver was greatly interested in the Indisms,
who came singly or in files to Hastings from their vil­
lage on the shore of Thornapple Lake. He can remem­
ber that he was never anxious to see the aborininees
at close range unless he was in’ the company of grown
white people. He can also remember how he used to
run out into the woods and hide behind trees if he
saw an Indian headed his way. And yet. they never
seemed troublesome except when drunk. Mr. Greenfield
recalls that the Indians would go to Grand Rapids in
the Pali of the year after their annuity of 810 for each
man, woman and child of their number, and when they
returned to Hastings there was invarlbly a drunken car­
ousel until all their money was gone; and often they
would trade their blankets and wearing apparel for
whiskey. A time he will never forget was the Fall of
1846 when this annual spree took place and the In- ,
dians were joined in their orgies by several white people
and all became beastly drunk and made not a little
trouble for the sobpr members of, the jittle: village. There «
were no saloons in Hastings, but liquon was sold by
several individuals who. were tempted by the large pro­
fits of what traffic there was in alcoholic drinks.

Voice of the People
Your editorial comment pertaining to the Calley case
was most upsetting. You Infer that morality should not
enter into the decision. What kind of government do
we have that we should not question the morality of
it's action? Certainly net a free government.
The Calley case made many people consider the
morality as well as the effectiveness of war Itself as a
tool for settling differences. Many people are conclud­
ing that in modern times there fa no "just" war and
the people who often suffer worst are completely innoognt civilians.
This case makes evident another question. Are Asian
lives as valuable as Americans? It's obvious many peo­
ple in government and elsewhere think not.
Its my understanding In God's eyes evwp-HUman
life on this earth is equally valuable.

To the Editor:

I’m sure a tot of parents are encouraged along with
us over the sudden trend in pop music that has come
on the scene this past month; The Christ Super Star’
album, 'Put Your Hand in the hand of the Man' and
others of religious nature.
The kids seem to like and have a deep understand­
ing of these songs.
Maybe there's hope for all of us yet! II

To the Editor:

(II When a potential credit grantor oaBa us for a. re­
port on an individual, they rarely ask us to up-date our
files if they have been updated In the last two years.
Tile majority of lenders and/or credit grantors will gen­
erally accept a file, as is, especially if there are any
open collection*. suits or judgments against the appli­
cant In addition, a file report is leu expensive than
an up-date.
(2) Many borrowers are not aware that when they
repay a loan on which a security trade agreement was
filed In the Register of Deeds office in the Courthouse,
that it is up to them to ask the Lender tar a Discharge
cf the Financing Statement. After receiving this Dis­
charge it must be presented to, the Register of Deeds
Office and upon payment of'one dollar, the Security
Trade Agreement will be discharged. There are many
borrowers who do not bother to observe this require­
ment, so their files continue to show an obligation when
the obligation has been paid. Af^er five yean, this is
no longer reported unless a continuation lias been filed
by the Lender. However, the borrower should be sure the
filing Is discharged.
(1) As far as a reporter stating that any credit ap­
plicant is a "bad risk." I am skeptical that this hap­
pened. Rather, we would prefer that the Lender or
Credit Grantor make their own decision based on the
ratings contained in the applicants file.
(41 While It is true that a divorce can cause finan­
cial hardships, there are several other things that can
cause troubles. Some of these are tou of employment,
sickness, injuries, strikes and of course we should real­
ize that a major cause of financial problems Is also
unwise spending.
To generalize a bit, we at the Credit Bureau would
much prefer to up date our files each time we receive
an Inquiry, but In too many instances, the applicant Is
In too much of a hurry to obtain the credit and go on

�Commissioners Elect
5 New Zoning Members
April is the traditional month (or County Commissioners
to work on the county's financial picture in preparation for
the October budget Sessions.
Barn- County Commissioners met Tuesday, but they
didn’t talk about the budget. They plan to do that on the
37th of this month after committees have a chance to
review cqualixalon figures and departmental requests.
Five vacancies on the Barry County Zoning Board were
filled by County Commissioners in secret balloting Tuesday.
Five new faces were elected from a field of 11 nominees.
Elected to the Zoning Board for three-year terms were
Ray- Mead. Russell Monica, John Long, Bill Dunlap and
Norman Hodgson. Defeated were the five Zoning Board
members seeking re-election including Paul Gibson. Carl
Jordan. Ralph Moore. Carl Brodbeck and David McKeown.
Also defeated was another nominee from the floor. Mrs
John Rowen.
County Commissioner Ken Radant. who represents
Wards 3-4 from the City of Hastings, indicated that he was
surprised at the outcome of the balloting. Radant said he
was surprised at the wholesale change tn the make-up
of the Zoning Board.
“While I certainly don’t object to new faces being added
to these various commissions from time to time, I thought
it was poor Judgment to reject all five of these men who
have labored long and hard at writing a new zoning ordi­
nance-one which has enough teeth to insure an orderly
growth In Barry County,” Radant said.
"Many people don’t realise that several of the neigh­
boring counties have strict zoning regulations. Some people
in our own county object to being governed by regulations,
but these same people would be among the first to object
if we were to be invaded by the type of building infringe­
ments the other counties wouldn't allow.” Radant said
Tuesday the commissioners talked about welfare, tire

Charlotte Beats Hastings
Nine, 3-2, in 8th Inning
The Hastings High School baseball team suffered Its
first loss of the season at Charlotte Monday, losing a
heartbreaker. 3-2, in eight innings. The West Central defeat
came after Coach Bernie Oom's Saxons had won two non­
league games against Battle Creek Lakeview and Forest
Hills.
Jim Demuth was the winning pitcher, allowing only two
hits and handcuffing the Saxons until the sixth when
Damon Perdue doubled, and ended up scoring by stealing
third and going home on the catcher’s overthrow, making
the score 2-1.
*
Hastings tallied again hi the seventh to tie the game.
Dale Tralster walked. Bob Terry sacrificed him to second,
then Carl Norris hit a long fly to left field which the fielder
dropped, putting runners on second and third. Tralster
scored on Perdue's gound ball.
Charlotte scored In the bottom of the eighth when Tom
Fhaver doubled, and came home on Ike Uhl's double to
break up the ball game.
Ed Hurley went the route for Hastings, allowing seven
hits, striking out six and walking only three. Hurley also
got Hastings' second hit.
The Saxons made four errors, two of which allowed
Charlotte's first two runs.
Hastings Junior varsity baseball players won their first
game, beating Charlotte here, 4-2, on the strength of Daryl
Barnum’s fine two-hitter.

Halting Medicaid Payments
Hits Medical Facility
April Medicaid payments totaled 84,000.000 will not
be mailed to physicians, hospitals and pharmacists for
medicaid care because the State is out of money in
these accounts.
State Social Services Director Bernard Houston made
the announcement from his Lansing office. The money
is gone. Houston said, so the benefits are being stopped
The legislature planned to transfer funds to meet
the cash shortage, but failed to act before the Easter
Hits Medical Facility
Hospital and medical facility authorities In the state
are reacting to Houston's announcement by reviewing
their financial situation should the legislature not trans­
fer the funds immediately.
Pennock Hospital Director Richard Fluke said about
10 percent of the hospital's patients are on medicaid and
a short term delay in payment of funds would not
cause too many problems.
However, the opposite position is taken by the Barry
County Medical Facility. Eighty percent of the county's
medical facility patients are receiving medicaid benefits
and the facility will feel the effects of the non-payment
almost immediately.
County Social Services Director Beatrice Fisher said
there is money to cover the cost of operating the falclity,
but the county depends on the monthly state payment
to keep county direct relief and the facility going. Both
agencies pay bills out of the same account.
Expenses More Than Income
The difference between what medicaid will pay per
patient day and what the average cost of operating the
facility is putting a tremendous strain on county relief
funds. An example is last month. The facility received
$72,900 from medicaid, medicare and private pay pa­
tients, while expenditures totaled 880.000.
In ah effort to ease the drain on county relief funds,
Mrs. Fisher requested county commissioners last year, to
appropriate 8100,000 in the county budget for Medical
Facility use in 1971.
Her request was denied. However, the county did
allocate 887,000 to the so leal services department for di­
rect welfare relief. Tuesday, Mrs. Fisher attempted to
transfer 850,000 from that fund Into a special account
to help the facility through its current financial prob­
lems, but county commissioners failed to act.
Even if medicaid payments are reinstated, Mrs. Fish­
er said, it wont be enough to keep the facility operat­
ing without dipping into county welfare money.

�Barry May
Qualify for

Value

ILS. Project
Acuon was taken by the
Economic Development Ad­
ministration to permit Barry
and Calhoun Counties to
qualify for public works proj­
ects, according to an an­
nouncement released from
Washington by Rep. Garry E.
Brown.
If these counties have plans
and projects, he added, “it
could mean quite a bit of
money'* for each of these
areas. EDA ruled that the two
coupties qualified for assist­
ance, he said, because their
unemployment in 1970 aver­
aged out to above six per cent.
Brown noted that In 19®
the average of the assistance
grants to specific localities
around the nation amounted
to 1596.000. up from a M25D00
average in 1907.
To qualify, counties have to
submit a public works project
plan for approval by EDA
and. if accepted, the area is
designated for public works
assistance.
After these steps, county
officials then propose a spe­
cific project and if it meets
all guidelines and in accord­
ance with the earlier overall
plan EDA approves the fund­
ing.
On approved projects, the
federal government funds 50
per cent of the public works.
Although EDA annually re­

views specific areas' eligibility.
Brown said counties with ap­
proved projects will be allowed
to complete them even though
they may be found ineligible
at a later date.
The only restriction in the
assistance law is that no.
state would be permitted to
receive more than 15 per cent
of the funds appropriated.
In Michigan, a number of
counties have been ruled eli­
gible for the EDA afflistance,
particularly in the Upper
peninsula. Brown said.

�point, we believe, when ho pointed out that an Income tax
or a ••value added" tax, such a* the Governor proposed is
an uncertain base from which to operate since the net
revenue will fluctuate with the economic conditions of the
times. As Sen. DeMaso pointed out, "If we had placed full
reliance on the income tax in 1970. the schools would be
bankrupt now."
• •
•
•
Much the same thing applies to a "value added” tax
which would also fluctuate up and down depending on
industrial activity. This is also the type of tax that adds
directly to production costs and so would be reflected in
the sold cost of the finished product. This, In essence, is a
tax on the purchaser—Just as Is the present sales tax.

— EDITORIAL —
Whether or not you agree with Gov. Milliken's School
Tax Plan, you will have to admit It took the sort of courage
that transcends politics to come out with such a proposal at
this time. With the important elections of 1972 in the
offing. Jockeying for favored positions is the rule of the day
tn legislative halls throughout the land. The mere mention
of Increased taxation is a dirty word and will remain so
until after the ballots are in and counted.

Another weakness of the "value added" proposal-which
would amount to two percent on each manufacturing
process—Is that it could force an automatic increase in the
price of an article by an ever-mounting percentage,
depending on how many actual "manufacturing processes”
wefre involved in tire finished product. Small and medium­
sized plants that find it economical to sub-contract for
one or more parts used in final assembly would be espe­
cially hard hit Many concerns faced with such a tax
would find it difficult to remain competitive in either
domestic or foreign markets.
The "value added" proposal has the same basic weakness
as the former "business activities" tax which was based on
volume of work and had absolutely no connection with the
profit of an industrial or business operation. The gross
profit of a business operation has no direct relationship
with the net profit after all of the expenses, Including
taxes, are deducted. Thus we always considered the “busi­
ness activities” tax to be unfair and unsound.

Possibly. If the Governor's proposal for a modest reduc­
tion in pay raises for state employees had received support
in the legislature, enough funds might have been saved to
shore up the precarious (or worse* situation that exists In
so many school districts throughout the. State. But the
State Senate failed to produce the required majority re­
quested by the Governor to scale down the pay raise
authorized by Civil Service and the House of Representa­
tives merely adjourned without taking any action which,
in our opinion, was an extremely weak-kneed maneuver to
“save face" in hopes that the public would soon forget and
forgive.
It was not an inspiring performance.

Actually, we are not at all certain that Gov. Milliken's
proposal represents the ultimate answer, although it is
certainly a bold new step in the right direction and an
acknowledgement of the fact that the property tax should
not and cannot be continually Increased to meet the
steadily mounting cost of public education.
However, we question the wisdom of cutting loose
entirely from the property tax. State Senator Harry A.
DeMaso. chairman of the taxation committee, made a valid

as that is always in order.
Possibly a solution to the school dilemma might best be
found in a combination of the property tax along with an
Increase of modest proportions in the State Income Tax.
When It comes to -the State Income Tax, we favor a
straight tax—not k graduated one. A graduated tax at the
state level would open up a flood of complications Just as it
has at the federal level and would require an additional
corps of state employees to administer the law and check
tiie returns. It would also cause additional expense to the
individual by making It necessary to secure competent
professional aid to assist in preparing the tax return.

Although we do not at this point agree with Gov.
Mllliken in detail, he is heading in the right direction and
we applaud his courage. The Governor is a thoroughgoing
gentleman who would rather be pleasant and agreeable
than otherwise. But, if the occasion demands, he lias
demonstrated on more than one occasion that he can be
ns forthright and tough as the toughest of them.

ed bid* for painting the 80-yiar old water tower Ip
I&gt;utnam Park. They accepted the bid of the Pit tabu r«
Tank * Tower Company of Pitteburg, Kan., at a cost of
*1.560.
There will also be seme necessary repair work be­
fore the painting can be done. No definite figure^ were
given for thLs because the company docs not know what
will be involved in this, but the cost will probably run
considerably hlgiier than the painting.
t The 8. I. Stites Tank Ac Bridge Co. of Premont. Ohio,

ford, IM.. bid was fcr $1,200.

�Trout Season Opens Saturday
JL

Hundreds of Barry County Sportsmen and women
will hit the rivers, streams and trout lakes Saturday,
April 24. for the opening of-the 1971 trout season. Doni
forget your fishing license and trout stamp.
The curtain goes up on brook, brown, rainbow and .
lake trout, splake, coho, chincok and kokante salmon
with the season lasting until Sept. 30-and longer on
stream* with extended seasons.
The pike season doesn't open until May 15 and the
bass season on May 30.
The dally or possession limit for trout and salmon
is five singly or in combination, except five additional
brook trout may be taken and possessed from stream^.
The minimum size is seven Inches in inland waters and
10 inches in the Great Lakes.
'Many of Barry County’s fishermen will go north to
hit top trout streams, but many will fish Barry’s wellgnown trout lakes and streams.
The breok trout is Michigan's only “native’’ stream
trout, and has been designated by the Legislature as
the State Fish. Also called speckled trout, the “Brookie’’
has been introduced into many streams where it was
not originally found.
*
*
You can identify the brook trout by a pattern of
worm-like dark markings on the back, by clearly de­
fined red spots on the sides, by white frontal markings
of the fins on the belly side, and by a comparatively
large mouth.
The vast majority of brookles caught In Michigan
will range from seven to 10 inches Ibng—throw the
shorter ones back. When you catch a 16-incher you
have a bragging brookie, even ^through the all-time
record brook trout in Michigan weighed 9% pounds,
caught in 1916 in the Au Sabie River, according to the
AAA Michigan Fishing Guide.
Most anglers agree that the brook trout is the easiest
of the trout to catch. He is a sucker for a worm—and
often for a fly.

Storrs Gets 1st Hole in One
Dave Storrs, 26, a 1962 Hastings High graduate, now
of 714 Fairbanks, Kalamazoo, scored the first ace of
the 1971 season Sunday. April 18. when he sank his fliron short on the 130-yard. 13th hole at River Bend.
He was playing with his dad. Glenn, his brother, Doug,
and Linda Edmonds. His mother, Jackie, and his friend
Jan Woxnlalsu of Kalamazoo, witnessed the shot.

Enjoy 280 Mile Canoe Trip \
D. R. O*b?me. Jr. and Terry Miles both of R5 Has­
tings, had what they called an enjoyable Barter vaca­
tion. Both men were the first in 1971 to complete the
Grayling to Oscoda 280 mile AuSable River by oonoe.
What was it like? Well, as they both said: “Cold,
wet, hazardous. and challenging.” The trip started in
Grayling Sunday. April 11, and ended Friday, April 16
at Sawyer Canoe Co., Oscoda.
The river was up four feet, creating strong currents
and dangerous bends. All together six dams were port­
aged. Including one bridge Which was impossible to
challenge. The worst dam was Five Channels by Glen­
nie which created four foot waves nearly cupelling the
canoe. The last dam. Foot dam. was backed up over a
mile in ice, making portaging very difficult.
All together the trip waa wonderful and beautiful,
nature preparing herself for Summer. The nights were
sometimes cold and wet. but by a campfire and a scenic
view it wks’ worth tfie cold nights, they said.
Osborne, a student at State Technical Institute al
Pine Lake and Mlles, a senior at HHS yere asked what
next? The answer, first relaxation. How about the canoe?
“You would never believe R was a blue canoe.” says

The year 1971 is the 25th at Michigan Stole Uni­
versity for ex-Mlnnesota grid great Clarence (Biggie)
Munn. He served as head football coach from 1947
through 1953 and since then ha* been director of ath­

Steeped In tradition covering more than three de­
cades. the 30th running of the Hastings Relays is sched­
uled for Saturday on Johnson Field, and sports fans
should turn out for this Spring classic which brings
many of the finest prep athletes to town. While a popu­
lar event with coaches, attendance by area residents has
been anything but good.
Hastings sportsmen give Athletic Director Jock
Clarey a big assist in handling the extravaganza, but
the number of local fans far from fill the bleachers.
Ken Letslnger, formerly of Dexter and now retired,
has been the official starter for all of the relays with
the exception of the first one. He's told Jock this wUl
• probably be his last.
Our Relays started in 1937, and ran through 1941.
They were discontinued during World War II. 1942-45.
and began again in 1946—the 6th Relays.
The Relays got underway when HHS Coach Lyle
Bennett, who later became famous at Central Michigan,
suggested them and former Principal Edwin Taylor
agreed to do the paper work. Taylor recalled that
"Lyle's friendly personality had a lot to do with building
tl&gt;e Relays up.”
.
Hastings won the 1937 event with 554 points. Plain­
well had 494. Charlotte 38, Belding 23. Eaton Rapids
8 and Battle Creek Lakeview 2.
It was not only the war years that caused the sus­
pension of the Relays but the inconvenience and dif­
ficulty of getting the Relays ready on the fairground
track. Race horses and auto races ripped up the oval.
The fairground track was a fast one, when in shape,
but il was hard to prepare. Lyle used to drag a scraper
behind his car. and the boys would rake up stones. Tay­
lor recalled that not everyone would shovel off the traces
the horses left during a workout.
Over the years there have been many more schools
competing, and Coach Clarey plans on changing the
format for the 1972 event. He will have two divisions,
one for Class A schools and one for Class B. Since 1962
the Relays have been "open" with all schools running
together.
The Class B champions over the years have been:
1937— Hastings, 554 points.
1938— WMU State High.
1939— WMU SUte High.
1940— East Lansing, 44 points.
1941— East Lansing, .404 points.
1946— Charlotte. 43 points.
1947— Alma. 35 points.
1948— Hastings, 41 2,5 points.
1949— Niles, 53 points.
1950— Niles, 49 7 13' points.
1951— B. C. Lakeview. 36 points.
1952— Niles, 42 points.
1953— B. C. Lakeview, 35 points.
1954— B. C. Lakeview, 40 points.
1955— East Lansing, 37 points.
1956— Mt. Pleasant. 494 points.
1957— South Haven. 33 points.
1958— Mt. Pleasant. 32 13/14 points.
1959— Lansing Everett. 38% points
1960— Godwin Heights, 33 points.
1961— South Haven, 404 points.
OPEN CLASS
1962— B. C. Central, 59 points.
1963— Lansing Everett, 56 points.
1964— Lansing Everett, 67 points.
1965— B. C. Central, 58 pointe.
1966— Rained out.
1967— Marshall, 444 pointe.
1968— Portage Northern, 46 points.
I960—Kalamazoo Hackett. 48 points.
1970—Portage Northern, 50 pointe.

Hastings only representative on a Michigan State
team tide year is John Peterson. 22, champion of our
area tournament. John is a senior letterman on the
Spartan golf team whom Coach Bruce Fossum (Wiscon­
sin ’50) is counting on for a great final year. At 6-1, 175,
John has the power to be strong off the tee. His 608
score tn tile Fall tournament was the third best total.
Sports Information Director Fred Stabley reports that
John ‘ was inconslstant last year, but could be a real
asset to the squad this Spring.” John is majoring in
hotel, restaurant and institutional management.
■ ^Sbort Take*—Gary Boyce, St. Johns High graduate
tfnd foiTner scourge of the West Central, homered in
the third inning to help Michigan State University
sweep its twin bill against visiting Ionia Saturday. The
Spartans were 3-1 In the Big Ten and 18-3 overall. . .
Sam Sessions of Nashville, who has driven in three
Indianapolis 500s, will drive one of two turbocharged
Offenhauser cars entered by Dan Levine of Federal
Automobile Associates of Detroit in this year's May
29 classic. Sessions was flagged in 12th place at Indy a
year ago. Gordie Johncock, a Hastings native, now of
Mt. Pleasant, is to drive one of two Ford-powered cars
entered for the 500 by Rolla Vollsteadt of Portland, Ore.
Johncock started the last six Indys and formerly drove
his own cars in the U. 8. Auto Club championship divi­
sion races. He was third in 1966 in the USAC champion­
ship or Indianapolis car division, and was a fourth

Michigan duck hunter*, who bagged aomewhere
around an estimated MOjWO birds last season, this year
may be on the shooting end of another bumper duck
crop matching or even surpassing the excellent pro­
duction levels at im.
, Hj*?
fxmibiUty relayed by Edward
J. Mikula, waterfowl specialist for the Michigan De­
partment of Natural Resources, after he took part in
arecent meeting of the Mississippi Flyway Council tn
Portland. Oregon.
It was the consensus of State and Federal wildlife
men attending the meeting that North America's ducks
have just about everything going for them thU Spring.
For one thing, the bird's breeding numbers are esti­
mated to be at least as plentiful as a year ago. Equally
significant, ducks In those prairie pothole areas will
be blessed with huh nesting conditions this Spring as
the result of last year's wet Fall and this Winter**
heaping snow-pac.
Looking at the situation here in Michigan, Mikula
sees an encouraging parallel to the prairie pothole pic­
ture. “We have an excellent breeding potential for ducks
this Spring and our local birtte will find good water
and habitat conditions throughout the state,** he notes.
Mikula points out that Michigan’s own breeding popu­
lations of mallards, wood ducks, teal, and other birds
are on the upswing thanks to recent regulations which
have lightened gun pressure on these home-grown tar­
gets.
The DNR's waterfowl specialist is quick to explain
that birds produced in Michigan account for about
half the ducks harvested by this states hunters each
Fall.

Reflecting upon the optimistic outlook for duck*
this Spring, both here In Michigan and In the prairie
pothole region, Mikula observes:

Our Environment
By Mr*. Cheater Stowell
The words environnmrot. ecology, conservation, con­
trols have become well-known in every household today.
Their meaning is understood and many are questing an
adequate method of implementation to maintain and
hopefully improve this. Our World.
Time is past for mere words. Time la here for Ac­
tion!
Improved environment begins with every individual
regardless of his location or occupation. The Springtime
of the year finds mankind in this reading area clean­
ing lawns, planting gardens, setting shrubs, trees, perenniels and all too often Burning Refuse. This must stop
for two reasons: Air Pollution and destruction of ma­
terials that should be returned to the soil.
?
The trusty lawmowers with mulch attachment or
without one does a good job of cutting up grass dip­
pings. rakings. leaves and such light material making
it suitable for mulching flowers, vegetables trees and
shrubs thereby conserving water and eventually making
soil.
Better yet, are the conrpoater machines that will
shred all household wastes and grind into finer bits all
manner of refuse up to branches three inches in dia­
meter. This shredded refuse placed in the compost pit,
pile or bln if properly handled will make soil much
faster than if left whole.
z'
Neighborhood cooperation in Che purchase of such a
machine could result in nominal expense per family.
In a short time it could pay for itself in eliminating
the need for commercial fertilizer. Six families prove
about right for such a venture.
K This type of do-it-yourself activity creates thoughtful
pride in conserving one of the'most precious resources,
soil.
This for Action.

�Busy Bees

Lakewood Loses 5-1 to Alma,'

In Michigan

Whips St. Johns 11-5

Scene people claim that a
spoonful of honey at bedtime
induces sound sleep. Whether
or not this is true, most peo­
ple think honey u a sweet
and delicious food.
Keepers of the 118,000 bee
colonies in Michigan agree.
Their bees produced 6.960.000
pounds of honey in 1970. val­
ued at 11,058,000, according to
Crop Reporting Service, a co­
operative agency of the Mich­
igan Department of Agricul­
ture.
.
• Keeping track of Michi­
gan’s bees is one of the re­
sponsibilities of the Agricul­
ture department," Director B.
Dale Ball said. "Bees an? a
valuable resource and we
check * colonies annually to
keep them free of disease."
Each summer inspections
are made for American foul­
brood. a highly contagious
disease which can destroy
whole bee colonies and spread
to others, Deen Lovitt, Plant
Industry division chief said.
The disease does not affect
the honey.
Beekeepers pay a small fee
for registration which enables
Plant Industry division In­
spectors to know where bee
colonies are located. To pre­
vent the spread of American
foulbrood to other colonies,
permits are required from
the department before a
colony can be moved.
Although Michigan bees pro­
duce about |1.5 million worth
of honey and beeswax each
year, their major importance
is in pollination of more than
1100 million worth of Michi­
gan crops, according to Lovitt
He estimates about 80 percent
of the crops requiring pollina­
tion are pollinated by honey
bees, pollinating activities of
bees Increase yields of such
products as blueberries, cu­
cumbers and tree fruits as
much as 2,500 percent.
Michigan ranked 12th in
the Nation in honey in 1970.
reflecting a one-third decline
in production. Average yield
per colony was 60 pounds,
down from 83 pounds in 1969.
Michigan had 5,000 fewer col­
onies last year, but lower
production was attributed to
adverse weather conditions.
The Plant Industry division
chief said: "Bees don’t like
cold or rainy weather and do
not forage for the nectar for
making honey under such
conditions.”

Lakewood High’s btuebaU team, which dropped a 5-1
decision to Alma Wednesday, April 14, and then whipped
St. Johns, 11-5. Thursday, was scheduled to be host to
Grund Ledge this Tuesday in another West Centra! game.
Marv Pyle struckout six. walked two and gave up Just
three hits in hurling Alma to the win. Steve Livingston got
two of those hits and Gary Mast the other one.
Ken Hummel was the losing pitcher. He whiffed six and
Issued five walks and gave up seven hits, including a home
run by Bond.
■
The score was tied going into the sixth. An error put
Merv Pyle on base and he scored on singles by Bond and
Castanedo. Alma scored three more in the seventh on three
hits and two errors. In the last half of the Inning Lakewood
loaded the bases with no one out but a triple play ended
the rally.
Rick Geiger pitched Lakewood to the 11-5 win at St.
Johns. Randy Atkinson was charged with the lou.
Lakewood scored five runs in the first inning after two
were out. In the fourth St. Johns loaded the sacks with
one out, but Geiger pitched his way out of the Jam allowing
one run. then shut the Redwings out for the rest of the
game, giving up just one more hit.
Gary Mast led the Viking attack getting three hits in
four trips, and Denny Richardson. Denny Frost and Jeff
Bosworth each had two for four. Richardson had a triple

We re selling Buicks and Opels, the same great cars
-We've sold all year.

With one difference The deals have never been better
Which means that you can move out in a new Buick or

he business of auto safety.
£ Auto safety is everyone’s concern. But it’s our
business
k
•
And we think the attention that's being paid to auto
safety now is a good thing. Because it will result in better
driving for everyone.
And, frankly, better driving for everyone means better
business for us.
We say Buick is something to believe m That's why
we re trying to make it easy to be safe by putting in safety
features that work by themselves. You don't have to do
anything to make them work
Like side guard beams And the energy absorbing
steering column. And the cargo guard between the

trunk and back seat. They start "working” even before
you get in the car
•
But two safety features, two of the most vital, are
worthless unless you do something first.
Seat and shoulder belts
Unfastened they do nothing. And you've seen enough
statistics to know what a difference they can make. So
use them.
But that's not all you can 80, Because the most ef­
fective safety feature of all can't be added to our cars
or anybody else's
.
‘
That feature is you. And the way you drive.
Which should be defensively And rested. And sober.
We re all in this together And together we can solve
the auto safety problem once and for all.

“After a cow drops a calf, fhe has only 80 to 85 days
to recover from calving, begin cycling and conceive if she
is to calve again within 12 months." notes Greathouse.
“You get a calf about 20 days younger for each beat
period that the cow fails to conceive." he says. “This
amounts to about &gt;10 to &gt;12 for each beat period miss­
ed when compared to early-born calves."-

Only 20 percent of the cows receiving low levels of
energy before and after calving became pregnant dur­
ing a 90-day breeding sea son in a recent research trial.
To help insure top reproductive performance, ade­
quate nutrition before and after calving is important,
emphasizes Greathouse.
.A 1,100-pound beef cow requires about 2.1 pounds
of crude protein per day during 3 to 4 months after
calving, according to the beef specialist.
*' Cows receive adequate protein and energy if fed 30
pounds of legume or grass hay per day, he says. Or,
65 pounds of corn silage plus one pound of 48 percent
crude protein supplement will also meet requirements.
Doni increase feeding levels too much during the
first two weeks after calving, warns Greatbouse, be­
cause extra milk will be more stress than help to the
calf.

HASTINGS LAWN MOWER
AND SHARPENING

By Bert Pylman
Social Security Representative
Q. My two small children and I have collected
monthly social security survivors benefits since my
husband died 4 years ago. Will our payments stop if I
remarry?
A. Your own monthly social security payments will
stop if your remarry, but the children will continue to
receive their benefits until they're 18—or until they're
22 if they are full-time student* in an accredited school
and they remain unmarried.
'
.
Q. A friend told me that the amount of your social
security benefit varies from state to stale. Since I am
moving to anotlier state soon, can you tell me what
my benefit will be after I move?
A. Your benefit win be exactly the same. Social Se­
curity is a federal program and benefit* do not vary
from state to Mate. By the way, be sure to notify your
post office and the Social Security Administration before
you move ao your checks will be sent to your new ad­
dress.
Q. My husband and I were separated for several years
before his death in 1967. I am 58 years old and have no
children. Am I eligible for monthly social security bene­
fits on his work records?
OLD THEATRE ADVERTISEMENTS

A. Ordinarily, you cannot collect reduced widow's
benefits until you are 60. But if you are severely dis­
abled and cant work, you may be eligible for benefits
now. A widow 50 or older who becomes disabled within
seven years before or after her husband's death can
receive monthly cash benefit*. Check with any social
security office if you think you might qualify for dis­
ability benefits.
The Banner, in cooperation with the Social Security
Administration, is publishing a series of questions and
answers on social security subjects. If you have a ques­
tion, the Social Security Administration will be glad
to answer it Your social security office, located at 60
N. Division Avenue, Grand Rapids, is open dally Mon­
day through Friday from 8:30 am. to 4:30 pm. Address
your questions and requests to that office which will
reply directly to you.

Oak Trees

“Hey,Tom Sawyer,

Need Iron
If there^ls an oak tree in
your yard be on the lookout
for signs of iron deficiency.
According to Dr. Harold
Davidson, horticultural spe­
cialist at Michigan State Uni­
versity. iron deficient oak
trees react with a yellowing
of the leaves—called chlorosis
"Chlorosis Is primarily a
problem of oak trees—espe­
cially pin oaks," says David­
son. "however, it can show up
in other hardwoods, rhodo­
dendrons, and broadleaf ever­
greens "
Homeowners who had chlo­
rosis problems last year should
take action right now. Treat­
ment consists of applying iron
chelate into the soil so that
It comes in contact with the
tree roots. “Spring is the best
time of year for this treat­
ment. because the trees are
just beginning to grow again
after being dormant through
the winter." says Davidson.
Iron chelate can be obtained
at most garden stores. David­
son cautions homeowners to
closely follow package direc­
tions because several different
concentrations of the material
are on the market.

It’s easy, too. Just peel off the backing paper (each tile has adhesive
already on it). Place the tile where you want it. And press. That’s
all there is to it, Tom.

Putting down a new floor is no longer an all-day job. There are no

installation fees, either. And Place *n Press can go directly over just
about any old floor, including terrazzo. In fact. Place *n Press Tile

goes on shelves and counter tops just as easily as it goes on the
floor. And looks just as nice.

-

Place ’n Press Excelon* Tiles are fun, inexpensive, and dam good
lopking. And with over 25 patterns to choose from,there’s sure to
be a Place ’n Press room in every home.

THE HASTINGS BANNER—Wednesday. April. 21. 1971

Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Annis who have resided at
411 N. State Street, Nashville, for the past 16 years, have
been redecorating an upstairs room which had for years
been used as storage space. In removing the covering
on the walls and ceiling they found that the area had
been covered with old advertisements from the Lake
Theatre in Lake Odessa and the Flo In Nashville. These
had been nailed to the wall, printed side to the wall,
then painted over. Underneath this was a couple of
layers of colorful wallpaper, and underneath that old
newspapers which dated back to 1903. The newspapers
had probably been used for warmth.
Structurally the house was well, built, and would put
any modern house to shame if one compared the lumber
used when the house was built to that used today. The
house is probably close to 100 years old. Vertical planks
were used to frame the walls, and horizontal boards,
from 16 to 24 inches wide were used in sheathing. The
inside partitions are also vertical plank, and the lumber
used was all hardwood.
In tracing back the owner of this home, Mr. and Mrs
Hugh Furniss owned the place for 12 years before the
Annises bought it. Before that it had been owned many
years by Mr. and Mrs. Bert Smith, and before that Fred
Baker and his mother lived there. None of the “oldtimers" remember who built the house, but it is under­
stood the lumber came from the Dickinson Lumber
yard, a local concern.

NOTICE
Rood Ditches on various roads have been
plowed with machinery, which disrupts the shape
of road grades and ditches until in many instances
the Road Commission has to reshape sections of
the ditches and shoulders of the road. Also in some
instances field soil is dropped on the road surfaces.' '
These are in violation of the statues as defined in
Section 121 and 126 of the Highway and Bridge
Laws. Those operating farm or other equipment
are urged to cooperate in order that these damages
to the roads will be eliminated.

dicate increased 1B71 acreages
for most crops requiring arti­
ficial drying, and this could
multiply the effects of the gas
usage restriction, points out
LaPrad.
Beans, corn; soybeans, wheat
and other grains are perish­
able if not dried to safety
storable moisture levels by
nature or artificial means.
“Restricting
natural gas
supplies for crop drying may
cause increased crop losses,"
says LaPrad. “With the pre­
dicted strong demand for
grain and beans, decreased
supplies may mean higher
food prices.”

Government to Sell Grain Bins
Nick Smith, Chairman of ABC Committee, announced
another public auction eale in Michigan of governmentowned grain blns and equipment.
*
On Monday, May 3, starting at 10:30 am. two flat
storage blns with a capacity-of approximately 44,000
bushels each, 36 lound blns with 3,250 bushel capacity
each, and 32 round bins with 2,350 bushel capacity each,
will be offered for sale by public auction. Smith stated.
A2jo included at this sale will be many miscellaneous
items such as aeration equipment, electrical equipment,
ladders, etc., he said. This sale will be held at the Ver­
non binsite, Shiawassee County, located at the south
city limits of Vernon, Michigan and details of the sale
may be obtained by contacting the Shiawassee Coun­
ty ABCS Office, 310 N. Shiawassee St.. Corunna. Mich.
48817, phone number 517-743-319L or by contacting the
nearest county ABCS office, Smith advised.
Each purchaser of a bin will be required to certify
that the bin will be used in connection with the storage
or handling of agricultural commodities or, if purchased
by a nonprofit agency or organization, an authorized
official must certify the bin will be used for the pur­
pose of such agency or organization. Smith stated.
Farmers may finance the purchase of these blns
through the Farm Storage Facility Loan Program pro­
vided they meet eligibility requirements; however, the
prospective purchaser must bring a memorandum from
ihs home county ABCS office so stating his eligibility.
Smith advised.
Additional auction sales of Government-owned grain
bins will be announced in the ne^ future, he said.

Originally known as St. John's Lutheran Mission.
Grace had its beginning in the early 1930’s. A small
group of Lutherans met in homes and later in various
halls for worship. The first full-time pastor was called
In 1940, and Grace was officially organized under a
constitution in 1944 as a member of the Lutheran
Church—Missouri Synod.
The present building facility, at the comer of S.
Jefferson and Walnut, was erected in 1948. Grace has
been served by four pastors. Revs. Oswald Trinkleln,
1940-61; David Stuckmeyer, 1961-65; Roger Janke, 1965­
68; and Michael Anton, 1969—. The membership has
grown from 26 conununicant and 99 baptized members
in 1940 to 225 communicants and 319 baptized in 1971.
As part of the whole Christian Church, Grace is
here to provide the opportunity for persons to develop
a relationship of faith with Jesus Christ through a fel­
lowship focussed on His life, death and resurrection,
His Word and sacraments of Baptism and Holy Com­
munion, as well as offer the stimulus of the Gospel
for Christians to serve God by serving His world, es­
pecially our community, with His love.
To accomplish its purpose, Grace offers a variety of
worship forms, including regular folk masses each
month, educational opportunities for all ages and for
youth and adults who wish to become communicant
members of the church. Grace has a number of groups
for youth, men and women which seek to serve Christ
by serving His people within the church and in the
community.
Grace seeks to involve as many of its members as
possible in the mission of the whole church. Its doors
are open to all who wish to find a commitment to
Jesus Christ for themselves and to share His love with
others.
Sunday worship is at 8:15 and 10:45. Sunday Christian education begins at 9:30. Special worship services
are also held during festival seasons. And other edu­
cational opportunities, such as Vacation Bible School,
are held during the year. Welcome to Grace!

(Pastor. Grace Lutheran Church, Hsstingi)

The "age we live in has been given a tot of labels,
but one I haven’t seen in print would also seem to ap­
ply. It seems safe to call ours the “Age of the Gap.”
We hear about aU sorts of gape and cleavages, the
communication gap, the technology gap, the generation
gap, the credibility gap, the knowledge gap, etc.
On the one hand we can say with some assurance
that these gaps have always existed in some form in
each generation. But on the other hand, without sound­
ing like we are the first people .who have ever really
tasted lifeuit can be said that man has never experi­
enced- these gaps in the extreme as we are feeling them
today.
We even have an “answer gap,” because solutions
are not always simple and easy to apply. The person
who offers simple, pat answers to our questions im­
mediately becomes suspect. In a tot of cases, rightly so,
because many issues are far too complex to be solved
by a few noble utterances.
But the pendulum also swings in the opposite ex­
treme, when we get to the point of throwing up our
hands and crying there are no answers. This can be -the
cry of despair from a sensitive soul that wants desper­
ately to find a solution, or it can be the Irresponsible
shout of the person who is happy to be free from the
burden of making decisions.
_
No one owns a set of the "answer encyclopedia," but
there are some basic tools we have to use In our search
tor ways and means to fill our gaps. And our gaps can be
bridged—if we are willing to pay the necessary price.
Sometimes despair comes from people who are just un­
willing to use the tools.
We start with the basic assumption that we are all

on the same level as human beings. Any other approach
is a dead-end street. If we measure each other only by
race, nationality, age, economic or political position,
hairstyle or dress code, we are out before we start.
Having our humanness in common, we recognize
that we all have similar weaknesses as well as similar
goals of happiness in our lives. That applies to those
labelled as enemies aa well as our friends and ought
to remind us that other people in the world want .things
like peace and a decent standard of living as badly as
we.
But while we are much the-same, we are also quite
different. Each human being is unique unto himself
with his own personality, his own idiosyncrasies, his
own hangups. If we are able to appreciate and defend
these individual differences for ourselves, we should
also be able to support others who vary from us.
Success in bridging gape, then, requires a tremendous
amount of respect for each other. Respect is not a
synonym for agreement. We may strongly disagree on
the way to settle ^he Galley dispute or the value of the
“peace movement” or the length of a man’s hair, but
we still must respect and accept the other person who
holds the opposite view. And we have to work hard
at understanding that view.
That seems to be where the trouble comes. We’d
rather say, "Bomb ’em back to the stone age, or "so
what if he killed them; they had it coming," or “bum.
baby, bum." That’s not surprising, because that’s the
easy way out. That way, we can avoid using the tools
of patience and understanding and love, and we can
escape involving ourselves to the point of discovering
how much you can learn by using respect.
We will always be searching for answers. But we
can find some solutions and bridge some gaps and avoid
opening new ones if we are willing to use the tools.

�fresh Out of the Attic

Village of Hastings in 1844
By Oliver Greenfield
In 1846 the Greenfields moved back to town, their
home being about where the Upjohn residence la lo­
cated on Broadway, opposite the courthouse. Mr. Green­
field recalls as If but yesterday the burning of the old
courthouse, which took place soon after they moved
back to town. He was playing with other boys, when
they noticed the flames, and called attention to them.
The Jail and courthouse were one structure, and John
Lolhridge, the sheriff, lived in the building. Fire caught
from the stove in Lothridge's kitchen. The building was
destroyed, but most of the valuable records were saved.
Another exciting event of 1846 or 1847 was the hunt
for the Freeman children. The Freeman’s lived in Carl­
ton. Their father claimed that they had wandered away
from home and were lost. People from all over the
county and neighboring counties joined in the search
but the little ones were never found. later Freeman
disappeared, and the general conclusion was that the fa•

ther hud himself taken the children's lives.
Two other events that deeply Impressed Mr. Green­
field connected with his boyhood life in Hastings were
the death of the first wife of Henry A. Goodyear and
the drowning of little Charlotte Knappen. Mrs. Good­
year was a prominent and much loved resident of the
village, and her death was greatly lamented. Charlotte
Knappen was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hernan
I. Knappen. She was a beautiful child of about 10 years.
She met her death by falling into the race leading from
the lower dam to the sawmill.
No small part of a small boy’s life in Hastings in
the 40*s consisted of hunting up the family cow. which
seemed to find inexpressible delight in wandering far
from the village into the woods, and to prefer the soli­
tude and forest to the comfort of the low stable. The
village boy was then expected to keep the house sup­
plied with wood, and Mr. Greenfield distinctly rememben that the family woodbox had an exasperating habit
of getting empty just when he had planned for a few
hours* fun with his playmates. When he wasn't busy
hunting the cow or chopping wood it was the boy's
delightful pastime to hunt up the doctor and bring
quinine to save some "fever'n ague" patient from shak­
ing the house down. He could also go to school when
there was any, and if his parents could afford to pay
the rate bill.
This "rate bill" is something that modern Ameri­
cans can hardly understand. The schools were not sup­
ported by taxation as now. Before the term began in
the Fall the school authorities first ascertained how
many parents wished to have their children attend
school, and how many pupils they would send. Then
the school officers engaged a teacher. The entire ex­
pense for teaching and maintaining the school was as­
certained as nearly as possible, and this was divided
by the number of pupils whose attendance had been
promised. This arithmetical operation fixed the "rate
bill" for each scholar. After this had been settled it
was expected that the children promised would attend,
and the rate bill be paid. But if the parents became
displeased with the school, as they not infrequently did.
they would withdraw their children and refuse to pay.
This made a teacher's compensation somewhat uncer­
tain Mr. Greenfield recalls that in 1849 or 1850 the
school authorities and parents could not agree about
the rate bill, so there was no village school that year.
But a man named Powers started a select school that
Fall in a building west of where the Parker house now
stands, and it was patronized liberally. Mr. Greenfield’s
first teacher was O. B. Sheldon; the next Cordelia lear­
ner; and the next J. W. T. Orr.
Mr. Greenfield is able to recall something of the'
social life of the village in that early day. It consisted
largely of visiting back and forth among neighbors or
with friends who might live a day's journey or so distant.
There were socials now and then, and an occasional
donation for the preacher which netted many expres­
sions of deep consideration for the dominie, but mighty
little cash. There were dances, mostly in the Winter,
and to these the young folks would sometimes come
from long distances. driving ox teams hitched to primi­
tive sleighs. But they were happy at Cnat. In 1852
there was a very earnest agitation over the temperance
question in Hastings and a strong movement to enforce
prohibition. The controversy over it became very bit­
ter, and almost resulted in the disruption of one of the

village churches. Mr. Greenfield naively remarked: "And
the question doesn't appear to &gt; settled yet."
In 1851 a newspaper, The Barry County Pioneer, was
established here by George A. Smith. It was strongly
Democratic in politics, and particularly bitter against
the "black abolitionists." Hastings was then a strongly
Democratic town, and very hostile to any agitation in
favor of the abolition of slavery. Mr. Greenfield's moth­
er was a strong-minded woman of pronounced aboli­
tion sentiments. She was made to feel that her views
were not popular in Hastings, but she stoutly defended
her opinions without regard to the practical social ostra­
cism which followed that course. Her son remembers
that in the early "50's a negro came to Hastings and
in an address he advocated the freedom of his race from
slavery. He was threatened with violence but pluckily
gave his lecture before a hostile audience. "At its con­
clusion my mother took him to our home and cared
for him until the next day, when he could depart wUh»
out being molested," said Mr. Greenfield.
But the agitation to abolish slavery would not down,
even in Hastings. The despised abolitionist had a day
of triumph. The anti-slavery cause was taken up by
the Republicans, who swept Barry County for Fremont
in 1856, and for Lincoln in 1860. In the civil strife that
followed Barry County had a glorious part In de­
fending the Union and its flag. Among those who went
out &lt;rom our city to serve Uncle Sam and help to pre­
vent disunion was Oliver Greenfield. He enlisted in Co.
F, of the 8th Michigan in June 1861; and in December
1863 he was one of the 185 members of his regiment
who re-enlisted while in the field, serving through the
war. Among the men of this city who belonged to Com­
pany F and who are still living are Traverse Phillips,
Jacob Maus, Charles F. Cock, John Phelps, John Mich­
ael and James P. Mead.

Businesswomen Hear About
Reporter’s Work, Experiences
Drawing on her experiences in the news reporting
field. Doris Jarrell, formerly of WOOD-TV, captivated
her audience of Hastings Business and Professional
Women's Chib members and their guests Tuesday eve­
ning. April 13th. at the Hastings Hotel.
The guests included bosses and husbands of the
members, ax well as several lady guests. Many of the
gentlemen were sporting Centennial beards, which
brought the comment from Mrs. Jarrell that it had been
a long time since she had seen so many handsome
beards I
Mrs. Jarrell said she learned that a good reporter
was not well loved because of the nature of the work.
She attributed her success, at least in part, to her re­
specting the confidences of her sources.
Mrs. Jarrell began her new career this week as exe­
cutive assistant to the Chief Justice of the Michigan
Supreme Court.
The group also enjoyed the vocal selections of Bernie

Count on Corned
Beef to Bring
Him to Dinner
Who can blame Jiggs, of
comic strip fame, for his yen
for corned beef and cabbage
which lured him to Dinty
Moore's I Wonderfully flavor­
some, comed beef has appeal
few of Its many fans can
resist.
A smarter Maggie might
have relied on strategy in­
stead of a rolling pin to keep
Jiggs home. Had Maggie^
kitchen been filled with that
tantalizing aroma of corned
beef cooking, Jiggs never
could have tom himself away.
It's a good idea for a home­
maker. whether she has a
wandering Jiggs or not, to put
corned beef and cabbage on
the menu occasionally. It’s a
man-pleaser for sure, says

deluxe features as 3-speed transaxle, independent
blade clutch for extra safety, electric starting, quick
cutting adjustment from the seat, wide-tread tires
that can’t.mark your lawn.
If your lawn stretches way out to there, you can’t
make a better choice than this rugged, tractor-mower
combination. The Holiday gives you full .value and fop
performance in every way, on every lawn.

MIDDLEVILLE LULLABIES A LOLLIPOPS.
Congratulations to Grandparents — the Leo VerUndes.

Mrs. John Heilner (the former Mary Beth Verlinde)
in Chappaqua. N.Y. Aside to the Heilners — your neigh­
bors Just could be the Floyd Willisons in Chappaqua
Mrs. Willison's dad. the late Carleton Kaechele, was a
native of the Middleville-Caledonia area.
Mention of these honorable Grandparents really
takes us back------ their home is the house where I first
“hung my hat** tn Middleville At that time the “Deke"
Beelers lived where the Verlindes now reside and one
Autumn day in 1933 I took the northeast room upstairs
as my habitat for the next months, having been as­
signed as school nurse to the western half of Barry
County by the W K Kellogg Foundation. Those were

really happy times —truly beautiful years with wonder­
ful people.
There are so many to recall — the late, Bertha Blake
iMn Glennt was a choice friend and a woman of in­
tense etamine and the list could be limitless really for
the many that we knew and admired.
As of today there is one. keen, alert, and “going
strong"------ Mrs. Birge (Grace) Swift, wife of one of
Middleville's illustrious doctors. (M.D.). She is an avid
crossword puzzle devotee which perhaps explains the
fact that she is “with it” today as much as always. This
sweet soul will celebrate her 90th birthday June 34th,
and as she often said, "the Good Lord willing.”
It wouldn’t seem quite right without a few remarks
about the Doctor. My debt of gratitude to him is boundless As a young nurse he was so helpful I doubt if I
could have managed without his assistance and council
— a rare, dear man.
Be that as it may (he wouldn't like the flowesoi^tee

impossible odds. We*ve never known another quite like
this gentleman, who had persistence to the Nth degree.

EARLY PAPERS.
One of the Belding librarians. Miss Helen Cusack,
a sister of Mrs. Chester Hodges, was eleaning some of
the old flies at the library and she discovered a bound
volume of the Hastings Herald dated May 1900 to May
1901. She very thoughtfully returned this volume to
Barry County and it has been given to Charlton Park
where it is available to the public. It is amusing to read
3pme of the news stories and also to compare prices to
the present time. An indication of how times have
changed was the heading of a front page item, "The
Hoboes Had a Time."
Incidentally, Miss Cusack, who has been ill in a
Grand Rapids hospital, is now at the Hodges home in
Hastings where she Is recuperating.

SOME OF TI?E ANSWERS.
About the girls* baseball team of years ago. Mrs.
William Kruko (Barbara Nixon) was a member of that
group and she says, “It was great fun.” She will find
the picture of the team, taken on State Street, in front
of the then Delnaay Sports Store, when they were at
their championship best. Everyone can then see this
beautiful bevy of gals.

CORRECT NAME.
The item about vivacious Mrs. Clifton Brown (Nancy
Count) of Middleville had her brother’s last &gt;namt
misspelled. We beg your pardon —it should have read,
Robert Count instead of Robert Cook. He was the bride­
groom April 10th when he and Rose Cool were married
at the Presbyterian Church.The story and picture elsewhere in this issua.'| )|

Actor Dennis Morgan and Dr. Harlan Hatcher, are
being aided by Mrs. Pearl McKeown, chairman of the
Barry County 1071 Cancer Crusade for funds, to hold
up the“Sword of Hope” at the 1971 Cured Cancer As­
sembly and Crusade kickoff sponsored by the Ameri­
can Cancer Society, Michigan Division. Mr. Morgan,
one of the featured speakers, has been California Bute
Crusade Chairman and a long time volunteer for the
society.
Over three hundred volunteers came from all over
Michigan to attend the 1971 kick-off. The slogan for
this year's Crusade is—"We Want To Wipe Out Can­
cer In Your Lifetime.” It is estimated that 635,000 new
cases of cancer will be detected In 1971. The encour­
aging fact is that there are now 1,500,000 Americans
cured of cancer.
Dr. Harlan Hatcher of Ann Arbor, Michigan Divi­
sion Crusade Chairman, announced that the goal for
Michigan is two million dollars. The goal of 112,500, has
been accepted by the Barry County Unit. The funds
collected by our county unit volunteers will be used to
provide the American Cancer Society's three fold year
around program of Research, Education and Service.

Quite often we find a new fence along the
highway that is too close to the center of the road.
New fences' along the County Roads should be
constructed not less than 33 feet from the center
of the Road unless the right of way is wider.
County rural roads are 66 feet wide unless records
show them wider. This is provided in Compiled
Laws of 1948, 221.20.
In case you are in doubt as to where the hew
fence should be set, please contact the office of
the Barry County Road Commission and we will
be pleased to set some stakes where the new fence
should be placed.

In the street
or in the vote?
Protest has brought a new
dimension to change in our
country. But protest alone
accomplishes little. For
permanent change, new
thinking si ill needs new laws.
The final test of thinking
and new ideas isn't in how
people react to a demon­
stration but how they react
to a ballot. The final test of
change rests in the vole.
Votes elect legislators
who make laws.
Support those who favor
your viewpoint, your think­

laws that give you the
changes you're looking for.
Without law, there can be
no meaningful change.

__
a record tentative
budget aggregating *3JO0X3, a 2.7* percent Increase over
the current school year’s budget of *3.123,606.
Bupt of Schools Richard J. Guenther reported that
about B5 percent of the expenditures will go for salaries
and that the total la about *100400 below what would
have been the school costs had revenue been available.
Bupt Guenther informally reported to the board that
while finances are forcing many private schools to etose,
the State Is penattting the public schools, which are re­
ceiving those children. He aaM that the State is requir­
ing school districts to Identify the students transferring

answer.

the property tax to the income tax. He said the board's
legislative committee should keep studying the proposals.
Tax reform may require a constitutional amendment,
he added.

Arthur Steward Jr., who did net seek re-election as
president of the Hastings Education Asaoclatton, said his
two years at the HEA helm had been a “rewarding ex­
perience."
He also said that the National Education Association
has Included in its National review a report on the HEA
and the local school board's cooperation.
He also recommended board members mark May II
on their calendars for a special announcement from the
NBA.
SupL Guenther and Dr. Morrill thanked Steward for
his work and cooperation while heading the teachers*
organization.
Approve Salary Increase
Board members approved a 5% percent salary in­
crease for the non-union food service workers, the same
raise as other school workers and staff received previ­
ously. They also get a *15 yearly uniform allowance,
time and a half for hours beyond 40 each week with
time and a half for all outside activities regardless of
the number of hours worked each week and 10 days

Change Language Program
Board approval was given to changes foe the 1971-72
foreign language program.
It was explained that the changes were not the result
of curtailment but were designed to permit continuity
in programming.
First year foreign language classes will be discon­
tinued next year in junior high, but second year foreign
language clrsses In Junior high will be continued, accom­
modating students now enrolled. After next year, they
will be phased out.
The two year junior high students will be enrolled in
Level II high school foreign language classes on the
recommendation of their instructors.
Foreign languages will be offered in all four high
school grades, requiring a **C" average or better ef stu­
dents enrolling in Level H high school or on a special
recommendation of the teacher.
Hastings will offer four years of a language where
there Is enough demand. Principal Robert VanderVeen
said fourth year students may be considered for indi­
vidual study In third year sections in case fourth year
classes are not offered. He added thxt third and fourth
year classes may be combined if there is not enough
demand for individual sections.
Underclassmen will get precedence to enrollment for
foreign language courses, in case 12th grade students
wish to enroll in the first year of a language.
Bupt Guenther pointed out that the report on food
services showing Pleasantview with a large deficit wasn't
accurate, but reflected debts from prior yean. Actually,
the Pleasantview cafeteria program is *8845 In the
black.” Last year it lost only *101 -36.
'
Bupt Guenther said that the State sending the dis­
trict only partial payments may require Hostings to
borrow money to operate at the start of the next fiscal
year, or Ln July. He said the school may end this year

along with the line of marshes between Green Street
and what is now the Fair Ground constituted lush breed­

common here one hundred years ago.

— EDITORIAL —
T'wu a ping pong game heard round the world and
what it means, nobody knows.
It U a bit premature to refer to thia unexpected de­
velopment aa a "break in the ice" between China and
the United States or even a significant opening in the

"Bamboo Curtain."
The invitation to the American team wu a welcome
gesture. China gave the team and the limited number
of reporters Included in the party a "red carpet” treat­
ment. Friendliness was the order of the day. Not one
incident developed to mar the smooth' flowing serenity
of the occasion.
Ching, where ping pong is a major sport, was careful
not to humiliate the Americans by one-sided scores —
which they could easily have done. Even the packed
galleries gave the visitors an enthusiastic reception.
• ,
*
Why was this invitation extended “out of the blue"
to an American team whose members are citizens of a
nation that has for yean been the favorite "whipping
boy" of Mao’s regime. Who knows for sure! Maybe the
unofficial meetings between Chinese and American
diplomats held privately in Europe over a period of
many months had something to do with this puzzling

maneuver.

«

•

•

What does It mean? Nothin,. In Itself. Developments.
U an,, during the weeks ahead, may give a clue.

•

•

•

v
Certainly the visit of one UB. ping pong team to
China and a return visit by one of their teams here
does not, in itself, constitute a thaw or anything resem­
bling same.
•nils fact was dramatically Illustrated when the
American visitors were leaving the modern theatre where
they had been special guests at a ballet performance.
Facing them on the way out was a vast sign in Chinese
that read: “People of the world unite to defeat the
United States aggressors and all their running dogs.”
It will take considerably more than "ping pong” diplo­
macy to bridge the gap that separates the two nations.
•

•

•

We should be quick to take advantage of any favor­
able developments, however slight, and pursue same in
an open and friendly spirit. At the same time, we must
be very cautious and not read too much into events
that may not be what they seem.
It takes two nations, both working in a spirit of true
friendship and harmony, to cement a meaningful pact
that Will be of advantage to both. So, before we permit
ourselves to get too enthusiastic over the ping pong Inci­
dent, let us give ourselves time to find out wtfat Mao

and Company really have in mind.

What was Hastings like in 1811, the year it became
a city?
We have no photographs of the community taken at
that particular time nor have we come across any first
hand accounts. However, certain facts are available that
give a clue.
.•
•
•
For example, Hastings, in 1871 was only four years
removed from the disastrous fire of 1867 that, thanks to
a calm day, was confined to a portion of the business
district: By 1871, the damaged wooden frame structures
had been replaced by new brick fronts. State Street had
a neater and more modem appearance than ever before
In Its brief history.
When Hastings received its charter on March 11, 1871,
the new city had no water system. Households obtained
supplies from comparatively shallow, open wells, fed
mostly from surface drainage. Naturally there was con­
siderable contamination and typhoid fever was common.
Along State Street and in the rear of the stores, a
series of cisterns had been constructed to collect water
to provide a supply for the hand-drawn pumping equip­
ment in case of a fire.
•

a

•

*

Hastings had neither sanitary nor storm sewers in
1871. Thus a type of "architecture," long departed, was
much in evidence. It was a case of "each family for
itself.” Even today, with an extensive system of storm
sewers within the city, flooding can be something more
than a minor nuisance. One hundred years ago, a heavy
downpour or a continuation of rainy days must have
caused extremely disagreeable conditions.

•
.•
•
Most ofx the homesteads a century ago were sur­
rounded by fences to keep out the livestock that roamed
at will. Lacking water for sprinkling, there were, of
course, no lawns and gardens were mostly of the practi­
cal "kitchen” variety.
Streets within the city limits were not tree-lined as
we know them today. Much timber had been cut down
for construction purposes or for household fuel. Thus,
the city in 1871, had a rather ragged and barren ap­
pearance.
•
•
•
Along Fall Creek, there were, in 1871, a series of three
mill ponds that produced the power for flour mill opcr.

2

State Street beginning east of Jefferson took a rather
sharp dip to the level of Fall Creek and then rose steeply
to the Hanover intersection. A bridge for horse• and
buggy traffic was constructed across the creek while a
walkway began just east of Michigan Avenpe (then
called Creek Street) and continued to a point near
Hanover. This last was a great convenience for pedes­
trians.
.
•
•
•

The Court House then was a two-story frame struc­
ture, completed in 1849 to replace one destroyed by fire.
The building faced north on the present Court House
Square and was surrounded by a fence to keep out
wandering livestock. It had been the scene of stirring
patriotic rallies during the Civil War era.
On March 11, 1871, pupils at the Old Union School
located on the square housing the present Central
building, were probably looking forward to summer
vacation. None of them knew it at the time, but this
would be their last full year of schooling in this two
story, frame structure, since it burned to the ground in
December of that year. Further schooling was continued
in temporary locations until a new, three-story brick
structure was completed in 1873.

•

When Hastings received its charter, the little Grand
Valley Central Railroad between Jackson and Grand
Rapids had been in service less than two years and was
still something of a novelty. Passengers on this early
train were thrilled at the thought of speeding along at
twenty miles per hour. To those used to stage coach
travel this new service was unbelievably fast and com­
fortable.

Thus, the Hastings of 1871 offered none of the con-^’
venlences and services expected of a modern city. Com­
pared with the community we know, Hastings was then
both unattractive and unhealthy with outbreaks of
typhoid fever and malaria a constant threat. Yet, the
people loved their city and gradually learned the ad­
vantages of pulling--and working together for civic
progress and improvements.

SENSATIONAL CENTENNIAL.
The best judge on the panel selecting the Spirit of 11
Centennial Queen Just has to be the father of Miss
Michigan of I960. Lyle Gillespie. He could answer many
of the technical questions and he knew the pertinent
facts. His procedure during the scoring for the flee
finalists was of invaluable help. (Don! forget to attend
the selection of the Queen at the new H.HJ3. Thursday
evening April 29th. J
One of the sensational developments of the Centen­
nial became apparent when the twenty-three application
forms for Centennial Queen were submitted. On the
second page fcach participant was asked to write, in essay
. form, her Ideas for the betterment of the Hastings
Community. There were any number of varied and good
• suggestions, but the concensus of opinion of almost
everyone was the good effect of the community parti clpation for all ages in the Centennial. They pointed out
that the relationship of the people in a community is
more necessary to a rewarding way of life than the
materialistic things. One wrote, "we must continue that
rapport and closeness because It will unite all genera­
tions and each person will feel equal and important."
It was this universality of feeling that was so revealing.
This attitude should give encouragement, and ^lao a
degree of satisfaction, to all of the organisations working
so diligently to bring all of the Centennial activities to
the successful conclusions they deserve. This is the right
direction and it should continue to stay that same way
in the future.
Another idea, with equal emphasis, was the need In
tills community for a Youth Center for all' young people
where everyone could go. Every contestant stressed that
all people should work together, for common goals and
in so doing will share the same values. When Youth
speaks it la wise to listen.

our boys were baptized during the Christmas Mass.
Please continue to pray that God will bring the Faith
to many of our boys during their six years with us. Dur­
ing the vacation just before Christmas the third year
middle school boys collected over &lt;2000 for a home for
crippled people not far from here. They stood on the
street comers downtown and had a small pamphlet to
hand out to those who made an offering. We were all
very proud of them and they got a big spread in the
newspapers.
My mother arrived here just before Christmas and
has been having a great time. Bhe spends most of her
time in the kitchen making goodies for the monks. One
day she made over 300 doughnuts for the teachers. Shell

chose to come here because for many years he and his
wife were often in the Delton area and he flshed hun­
dreds of times on Crooked Lake. What he misses most is
gardening which was one of his favorite hobbies. Dr.
Hadley is most laudatory when he mentions the Has­
tings Public Library. He believes the town is so fortu­
nate to have such a splendid public service for the
people. A visit at the library is part of his daily schedule.
He was interested in knowing that the Dr. Clarence

in the oity council decision to buy the old postoffice for
one dollar and'undertake such a project.

-HBHastings Mfg. Company's Vernon “Snap" Engle has a
true and priceless story about "dally-doubles." If you

Mention of the Mfg. Co. brings to mind Dr. Douglas
Blocksma of Grand Rapids, a well-known educator, who
has served in a consulting capacity for the Mfg. Co. (He
lives near to the Howard Frosts at Barlow Lake In the
Summertime.}
The current issue of Reader's Digest has a story about
his brother. Dr. Ralph Blocksma, la of general Interest
and a short portion. "They Take 'Vacations for Hu­
manity.'" appears here.
Fomer Hastings resident Dr. Philip Frandsen of Mus­
kegon took pari in a similar project the past year.

surgeon and chief* of staff at Butterworth Hospital in
Grand Rapids. Mich. Blocksma has made trips to Cen­
tral and South America, the Middle East. Africa. Thai­
land. Korea and Vietnam. Some trips have had striking
results beyond the strictly medical.
"In 1958, for Instance, while on an STM assignment
to Panama. Blocksma heard-of a Cuna Indian boy with
a disfiguring cleft lip. Distrusting all outsiders, the
Cunas had for centuries refused to permit schools or
hospitals in their homeland on the San Blas Islands off
Panama's coast. Missionaries, too. were forbidden.
"Boldly. Blocksma went to the boy's home by small
plane and dugout canoe, and. over the violent opposition
of local medicine men, persuaded the boys’ parents to
allow him to correct the deformity. The operation a
complete success, the island chieftain exclaimed, "How
could a mere man perform such a miracle?’’ Replied
Blocksma. "I serve One who wants to help all people.
Would you like to know more about Him?’’ The boy and
his parents became minor celebrities and were taken
from island to island to display the "miracle." Other
island chiefs invited missionaries and doctors to come in.
Today, mission stations, as well as clinics and schools,
operate throughout the 350 islands."

Thinking About Getting Into Boatlng-Hcrva How
Attend Hastings- Boat Show On Saturday. May 1
It you've been thinking about getting into boating,
but haven't quite gotten around to it because of haunt­
ing doubU or other reasons, here's the easy answer:
Attend the Hastings Boat Show Saturday. May 1 and
end the bewildering problems of choosing between
prams, dinghies, runabouts, cruisers, houseboats and
sailboats in a puzzling variety of sundry shapes and
sises. Not to mention the frightening salty talk by your
friends and neighbors about burgees, flag codes, rules
of the road and navigational calculations.
Ask yourself these questions:

1. WHY DO WE WANT A BOAT? For fishing? Cruising?
Water skiing?
2. WHERE WILL WE USE OUR BOAT? On a small lake?
Large lake? On a river? In the ocean?
'
3. WHO WILL USE OUR BOAT? The whole family?
Guests? The children? Together* Separately? All at once?
4. WHEN WILL WE USE OUR BOAT? On weekends?
Summer vacations? For day cruises? For long trips? Daily?
5. WHERE WILL WE STORE OUR BOAT? In the garage
or yard? At oar own waterfront slip or boat house? At a
marina or yacht club?
6. HOW MUCH CAN WE AFFORD TO SPEND? For the
boat and motor? For a trailer? for fuel, storage and main­

Once you've answered these questions your chances
of getting started right in boating are greatly improved.
But before you actually start shopping plan to come to
town Saturday and put your questions directly to those
who know, the boat dealers themselves.
Qu alined marine dealers will get you started right
in boating whether you need a 12-foot car top fishing
boat with a J‘i hp outboard, a racy ski boat with an
85 horse' engine, or a* houseboat with a pair of 125s. If
you think boating tant for you, remember that 44 million people enjoyed boating in 1970!
Among the dealers who will be happy to answer
your questions and who are planning to preview their
wares on sidewalks in front of Hastings stores. Include
Gordon (Pete) Thompson of Pete’s Used Furniture;
Larry Krick of Oun Lake Recreation; Butch Landman
of Landman's Sport Center, Grand Rapids; Ed's Repair

date augurs well for future events.

Voice of the People
( 7 he Hanner welcomes contributions o/ poetry
from its readers. Many persons love this form of
literature which embodies beautiful thought, feel­
ing, or action, in rhythmical and (usually) metri­
cal language. H’r would like your original poems.)
To the Editor:
It should be brought to the attention of everyone in
Barry County that those who missed the presentation
by Richard Guenther, Supt. of Hastings Schools, at the
meeting of the Taypeyers League of Barry Co. on April
22nd. lost out on a very informative and enlightening
speech. You did not have to be a college graduate to
understand what is happening with school monies from
the county, slate, and federal levels.
Mr. Guenther made it very plain that all school ad­
ministrators and school boards are well aware of the
fact tluit money for school operation and mainten­
ance must come from some source other than the proper­
ty owners, and he urged everyone present to contact
their congressmen and point out that a tax reform is
ft necessity now. not some time in the vague future.
The question and answer period after the presenta­
tion brought out more information on school policy.
It is now up to the Individual taxpayers to put forth a
concerted effort to become Involved in a matter ot grave
importance to the entire educational structure of our
state.
Sincerely yours.

Mayor Sets Cleanup Week,
Council Adopts Budget
Hastings City Couneiimen approved a 1748.297 oper­
ating budget for the City Monday night, requiring a
property tax levy of 113.78 per 81,000 of state’s equal­
ised valuation. The tax levy is 81.68 higher than last
year. The new budget becomes effective with the fiscal
year starting July 1, 1971.
City Fathers okayed a request from five youths, who
said they were affiliated with the Barry County Peace
Committee, to hold a band concert at the west end of
Tyden Park Sunday afternoon. May 2.
For two weeks, a number of young people have gath­
ered at the Park on Sunday afternoon for free food­
hand-outs. Organizers of the group said the hand-out
program is self-sufficient, relying on donations for
existence, and is open to anyone in the area.
City police have received no complaints thus far
about the gatherings at the park, and according to Chief
Sunlor, the youths have left the park free ot debris.
An unidentified resident supported the youth’s re­
quest. saying he thought such a movement might help
to bridge a gap in the community.
Councilment authorized a letter of intent to the
Michigan Department of State Highways to set aside
865,000 as the city's portion of water and sewer Im­
provement to West State Street. The improvements are
part of the new highway construction plans slated for
West State this Summer, and money for the water and
sewer work will come from government grants.'
Monday evening, City Fathers created a “Pioneer
Mall” for the centennial celebration. State Street will be
closed to traffic between Church and Michigan Avenue
June 1 through June 6 to allow the street area to be
used for displays and a carnival. Church Street will also
close between State and Court.
Mayor Franklin C. Beckwith urged area residents to
get In the "Spirit of *71” and the up-coming Michigan
Week observance by cleaning up their community.
Clean-up Week starts May 10.
In other council business, Fourth Ward AJderman
George Hamaty formally announced his resignation from
the Council effective June 28.
Couneiimen referred to committee a request from
the Viking Corporation for extension of water, sanitary
and storm sewer on Industrial Park Drive, and also the
extension of curb and gutter.
Hastings, England, has asked the City to join with
the 18 Hastings communities around the world In
creating a special Hastings garden area in the English
city. An area of 100 square yards will be set aside for
each city, for the planting of trees, shrubs and flowers.

Inflation has hit everything, including Hastings
High's athletic program. Supt. of Schools Richard J.
Guenther told the Board of Education Tuesday night,
April 20, that gate receipts qn the; hilltop now;.bring
in about a third of the cost of the*entire program. A"
while back the ratio was about two to one.
J Football receipts in! 1970- amounted to $6,561.75
on 6,590 paid admissions. Basketball brought in
84,994.65 on 4,697 admissions, wrestling receipts totaled
81,03750 with 1,428 paying customers and junior varsity
football receipts were 8373.70 with 1,077 tickets sold.
The 1970 grid season started off well, financially, with
1501 paying 81,436.75. Admissiqns dropped slightly for
the Charlotte game with L447 paying 8138456. The
Grand Ledge game brought 1,410 to Johnson Field, pay­
ing 81334.05. Hie Ledgers spoiled the HHS homecoming
crushing the Saxons, 40-0. The HHS stock plunged and
the Alma game brought in only 1,031 customers who
paid 8961.95. Lakewood brought fans along for the final
home game and 1301 watched the Vikings pull out a
14-12 victory with 1:42 left hr the ball game.
The West Central Conference’s procedure of Jetting
the visiting school retain the money Jrpnf the aale of
tickets for away games netted'Hastings’8250 in football.
Advance sale of basketball tickets for games away
brought in 8420.75.
'
Basketball receipts were healthy, but many more
fans could ' turn out. The thrilling St. Johns game
brought in 8839, the first home dash ot the season and
the best —based on gate receipts and the actual game.
Receipts for the other home games were: Ionia 860030;
Lansing Waverly, 865635; Alma, 8742.10; Grand Ledge,
837450: Lakewood, 8530.15, and Charlotte, 883150. There
were 888 paying customers at the Charlotte game, while
there were 811 watching the inaugural St. Johns tilt.
The low points, financially, was the Grand Ledge game
which attracted only 422 fans.
*
। With the increased popularity of wrestling, that sport
can be expected to bring in more money in the future.
Receipts last season included 8493 from students and
854450 from adults.
Short Takeo—Paul Dean of Alma was the only West
Central Conference product to earn a letter at Michigan
State this past Winter. Paul lettered in basketball. . . .
Talk about the country, Gary G. Grabau hit a deer in­
side the Hastings City limits about 8:35 pan. Tuesday,
April 20, driving east on W. State Road just east of
Country Club Drive. He was given a permit to keep the
venison. . . . Hastings’ Steve Strickland doubled Tues­
day, April 20, to score Terry Sack of Big Rapids and
Steve came home too as Ferris State, won. its fourth,
shutout victory of the season. 341.' at Aquinas College in
Grand Rapids. The next day Steve’s perfect bunt evened
the score against Hope College at Big Rapids and Ferris
went on td win, 9-8 to give Perris a 9-1 record. Tim
Girrbach is a relief pitcher for Ferris. . . . Denny Bu­
ford of B.C. Lakeview and Bin DeVault ot Grand Ledge,
received varsity letters in wrestling at Western Michi­
gan. Both are well known to Hastings High grapplers.
. . . John (JC&gt; Clarey, now with the schools in Portland,
was here Saturday for the Relays. The Raiders did
alright, taking fourth place, JC*&gt; playing a lot of golf,
but got beat the other day by Portland Coach Don Cran­

Our Environment
By Mn. Chester Stowell
Tidbit* From TW Governor's Conference
The Governor's Conference ushered In Earth Week
1971 with a report to the people on Monday. April 19
at Che Civic Center, Lansing.
The Michigan Department of Public Health, Natural
Resources arid Agriculture carried the divided sessions
of the jam-packed program.
The affect of mercury on humans through fish con­
sumption has been surveyed and Its use in industry cur­
tailed. A problem of Its removal from lakes remains un­
solved.
•*'
Much ha*1 been accomplished through the Water
Quality Control Act 1968 in Improvement at existing
sewage treatment plants and the construction of new
plant* with a waiting list. There is a Concerned Citizenry
in this direction with a changed attitude in clean water
preservation. In this short time, 80 percent of the phos­
phous has been eliminated from the Rouge River. AU
water craft are being judged for polluting. Progress has
been made. Now plans for Grand River are being de­
veloped.
j
The Status of Michigan Recreation Bond Program,
ot special interest to Barry County people, was discussed
by Samuel A. MUsteln. Three hundred and eighty-three
projects are approved and a total of five hundred will
be approved. Careful consideration will be given to the
potential problem of operation and maintenance.
What beclouds, begrimes and bedevils? Air pollution.
The causes are vehicles. Incinerators, industries, power
plants, heating unit* and people I Enforcing the present
laws, urging better control devices and urging the use
of new sources of energy such as natural gas and hope­
fully nuclear fission seems the answer.
Those mountains of refuse can be managed satis­
factorily by home methods, land fills and recycling. We
Mast have the Will to do it.
Pestecldes are both saints and sinners. Saints when
used wisely to enhance the quality of human life and
sinners if used in ignorance. Use non persistent chemi­
cals. Use only those that are tested and have proved
to be least persistent.
Radiation in small doses over a long length of time
is just as Injurious as a large dose at one time. The
state radiological health program checks the environ­
ments of both air and land. Its objective is to elimin­
ate unnecessary radiation exposure to the public, work­
ers and patients.
' :£ - ~ ‘
j
Dr. Carl 8. Shults, Director of the Office of Popula­
tion, HEW, made very clear that Population Growth was
The Paramount Issue. At the present rate the year
2000 would find 300 million people in America. Social,
and physical resources would be strained beyond the
limit of decent living conditions. Family punning pro­
grams. with. Improved contraceptive mehods must be
available to all people. Fertility may be controlled and
the failure exists among the uneducated. Abortion seem­
ed better than 56-88% unwanted children. Incentives
.to control families, to the speaker, seemed preferable to
Income tax exemptions for two children only. It mean*
that quality living versus quantity confusion.
A panel discussion dosed the days program. William
Pierce, Deputy Director of Education was questioned.
That department is doing nothing to promote Environ­
mental Education. He was the only person during the
day who received NO applause!
This was a day of assessment. There has been pro­
gress! We must develop a new morality with the know­
ledge that long standing customs must modify and that
we will be Judged by the way we leave the environment.
It must be a continuing sustained effort bearing cauti­
ons optomlsm.

censored word adds to the effectiveness of a statement,
the closing of our meeting places, be they coffee houses
or street corners, strengthens our struggle against cal­
culated reprsmion.
We are attempting to present to the people what
can be, rather than what to. By presenting alternatives
to the time worn Hastings life style, we perform the
important function of keeping society mobile and pre­
venting its stagnation
No longer do we take things at face value. We have
a«en “facta” become fallacies, we have seen “myths"
become reality. Because of this, we despise Che enact­
ment of youth-oriented ordinances and qJestiou the
reasons given for their passing.
The coffee house was closed, the streets are guard­
ed. and WBCH won't play “The Battle Hymn of Lt.

We the people are being silenced, yet we realise that
although we have been silenced we have not been converted.

I don't feel that we are so lucky with the fact that,
we do have a drug problem. Even though some people
don’t realize it. Maybe it isn't as bad as the one in
New York, but it is bad enough. If it is just one per­
son that is hooked that is one person too many.
The kids in Hastings don't really have any place

I feel it is very important that the draft be allowedto expire this year. The draft is an evil that can not
exist in a free and democratic country. When I was a
young child. I was taught our country was free But
now I know it is not a free country, and can not be
when the government has the power to force young
men to leave their homes and families whenever
through sin or error the leaders of the country Involve
us in a war so unpopular that the only way to gain
the manpower to fight it is to draft young men.
I feel that if the people of this country support a
war, they will show their support and live up to their
beliefs by volunteering and fighting that war. But if
tile only way the government may obtain the neces­
sary manpower is to draft, then the people do not sup­
port the war and the country should not be involved in
that war. Only those who support a war should have
to fight it. It is not fair for one man who supports the
war to be empowered to force other people to fight the

Be Kind to Animals
Area residents are re­
minded that May 2-8 is the
57th annual national Be
Kind to Animals Week. Its
purpose is general—not spe­
cific. Just us every day of
;the year should be Moth­
er’s Day, Father’s Day, Flag
Day—so should every day
be an occasion for thought­
fulness where animals are
concerned, according to the
Barry County Humane So­
ciety.
Man's affection for ani­
mals has roots deep in his­
tory.
Ancient
Egyptians
were so fond of their cats
that their law required a
man to shave his eyebrows
as a sign of mourning when
his cat died. Astrologers of
Old —and millions even in
this modem age—turn their
eyes towards the skies to
see among the stars such
representations as Loo, the
lion; Taurus, the bull, and
Capricorn, the goat.
During the Middle Ages,
feudal lords and knights
honored animals by includ­
ing their pictures on official
coats of arms. The sacred
cows of India find their
counterparts in the pet Es­
kimo dogs, named for de­
ceased family members.
Studies show that many
young people turn to pets
for security during the pain­
ful and confusing times of
growing up.
Parent and
child may find themselves
in conflict, but the young­
ster ffalns assurance from
hla.pet'that he can be loved
for himself.
Psychologists have found
pels helpful
in
treating
emotionally disturbed chil­
dren. Often unable to give
or accept love, these chil­
dren find complete accep­
tance through a pot. The
bond between child and
animal
helps
draw
the
youngster out of himself.
It takes a heap o’ livin' to
make a house a home and
pets are a vital part of
home life for millions of
families.
The Barry Humane Soci­
ety commends all readers to
observance of Be Kind to
Animals Week
sponsored
nationally since 1915 by The

�Fresh Out of the Attic
✓//mJ

Again one of the Banner scrap books has come to
the rescue for my column this week. This article appar­
ently appeared In The Banner of December 4, 1913. This
article will bring out what travel was like from New York
State to Michigan in 1845. They never even found a
motel. I am sure you will enjoy this most unusual
article. Happy 1971 to all of vou folks. The heading

of the article is as follows:
- FROM "YORK" KTATE TO MICHIGAN IN 1845
Pioneer’s Recollections of Experiences
Nearly 70 Years Ago
"YANKEE LEWIS" OF TAVERN FAME
IN A NEW LIGHT
This Journey From Empire State Made By
Rail. Water And Stage Was Common Then
Interesting glimpses of the journey by wagon from
the old home in "York" state to Buffalo, thence by
boat to Detroit, and from there by railroad stage to
Grand Rapids, ria Yankee Springs, are given in an
article in the Grand Rapid* Herald dmcnblng the pio­
neer experiences of Lyman Patten aged 80 years, con­
sidered the oldest resident of Grand Rapids. He made
the trip through Yankee Springs in October, 1846.
This Journey from "York" state into the new coun­
try was a common one, and the first trip Into the Mich­
igan wilderness of the pioneer members of the family
is something which has been discussed for years in
scores yes, hundreds of homes in Barry County. Mr.
Patten gives an interesting glimpse of "Yankee Bill"
Lewis at his famous tavern. Many will read with In­
terest a short account of his trip from the old home
in the Empire state to Grand Rapids nearly 70* years

ago. It follows:
It was strictly a family aggregation which set out
from West Winfield, in Herkimer County, and struck
Into new and almost untouched parts. The journey was
naturally one of the supremest delight, especially to the
children, who looked upon it as the greatest lark which
could possibly happen to them. Ten days, adventure filled and free from calamity, were spent on the road
before Buffalo was reached. The famous Cherry Val­
ley turnpike was well stocked with good taverns, and
provided one so arranged his pilgrimage as to reach
Che
doors at a seasonable hour, it might be
argued that “all the comforts of home" attended him
upon his lengthy way. The average day's run was be­
tween 25 and 30 mites—a distance which, even under
trying circumstances could Dot be supposed to afflict
the travelers with any really (fire discomforts.
Since our party moved in real style, they were un­
hampered with the complement of household effects

canal and the lakm B was to a watery voyage ttat
the Pattens likewise turned their minds once they at­
tained Buffalo, or about the half way mark (so far
as prairie schooners went) At Buffalo they boarded
the 8. &amp; Constitution, which vessel must have been
about as void of appendages for comfort and even safe­
ty as was at that date. However, the voyage was made
quite safely, it taking, if I am not mistaken on this
point, five days to reach the port of Detroit.
Lyman approached this bounding little city with the
critical eye of a youngster who has known considerable
metropolitan!*™ himself. He tad spent a-good time
in the bigger city of Buffalo, and beat dee there was a
difference between the dtieS of the east and those of
the west which may not so strictly obtain today. Cer­
tainly it was no very elegant or imposing spectacle
which met his gaze as the steamer moored and the
party repaired to the Russell house for a brief rest be­
fore resuming the march.
Coincident with the arrival of the easterners was the
flourish of departure attendant upon the launching
out of the Chicago-bound stage coach. The railroad
was at that time only completed as ter as Marshall,
and travel was accomplished' stolidly behind horses^
just as it tad been accomplished ever since lhe journey
was opened up. only now with a greater degree of lux­
ury. The coach dashed from the portal of the Russell

ping of whips. But this grand show of power and the
pride in man's triumph over the inanimate did not last
very long. Scarcely had the coach thus proceeded a
dozen yards when with a heavy lurch it came to a dead
standstill, hub deep in the reeking mud of Woodward
Avenue. And it rested there, I do not know how long a
time, either, because after the enjoyment of some re­
freshment within the relative magnificence of the Rus­
sell house, the travelers In whom we are immediately
Interested re-entered their staunch old prairie schooner,
to which had been harnessed up again the horses, res­
tive enough after their confinement in the Constitu­
tion's hold, and made off, avoiding the pitfall of the.
heavier vehicle.
With Detroit’s mud shaken off, the course now lay
directly toward Grand Rapids; yet such were the boule­
vard conditions in that antiquity, that 10 days were
consumed before the last hill was created, and the Val­
ley City lay spread out, In the magnitude of a village
.. of about 600 souls on each, side of the river. But this
final lap must have appeared as the most delightful
of all the trip, at least to the boys and girls. Their
seniors may have well begun by this time to experi­
enced some fatigue through long continuance. There
was no longer any great turnpike or trunk road to fol­
low, but often the merest Indian trails and cow paths
through forests the like of which at least Lyman had
never seen.
All along this wild, fascinating stage of the jour­
ney the boys would run or trudge behind, scorning
except when sheer weariness compelled, to ride, when
there was so much exploring on the side to be done.
Skirmishes were made in ell directions, and the pret­
tiest wild flowers picked. The wonder of the taut skins
of bear and deer and coon, nailed up on every barn
to dry, never evaporated. Here were woods which were
brim full of game. Indeed, could not the wolves be
heard howling at night? And were not these, as well
as bears and upon one occasion, a panther, caught sight
of even after residence was taken up in the village
of Grand Rapids? A verg favorite taunt of the wild
beast appears to have been that portion of Pulton
Street nearest the river, which was mostly swamp and
littered with felled trunks of gigantic trees. That was
in the days so remote as to offer as on Ingenious and
even sumptuous device, the Fulton ferry, the sole means
of crossing the river, except by the foot bridge far­
ther up, strung on wooden horses.

Along the route streams had frequently to be forded.
Blazed trails were followed anxiously lest they dwindle
into a fusion with the primeval. Part of the way there
were corduroy roads of fair stability, but again there
would be tedious stretches of soft lake sand, in which
the wheels would crunch and wallow as far as the hubs.
This was a test for the horses, but were not both
Charles C. and Lyman W. born judges of meritorious
horseflesh, and did they not themselves have to admit
that In this splendid team (one cf the horses alone
had cost all of 3400) they possessed the most incom­
parable animals to be found anywhere?
Likewise along the route were encountered taverns,
sufficient in point of number and accommodation
though hardly as the turnpike taverns Regarding
them Mr. Patten makes two statements of milch in­
terest, which, may be stacked up to advantage against
the modem plan of hostleries today on the one hand
and against the tendency to alcoholic excess on tbe^v,
other. It seems that the rear portion of the taverns
were always occupied by the bar, so that this formed
the crowning glory of the office. Most taverns followed
the scheme of arrangement without any variation. As
an offset, however, to this flaunting of liquid refresh­
ment in the faces of arriving and registering guests is
coupled the assertion that in those days the effect
of whiskey upon people was far less baneful than
today. Then it was what they called “clear quill." which
seems to imply virtues alcoholic long since forgot; and
it was the common thing for nearly everyone to take
a glass of this tea party stimulant whenever he felt _
so Inclined, which was done without any worry about
taring to end by resorting to the Keeley cure. I am
not certain the "clear quiU" beverage would give you
so much as a breath.
It was at a small place called Yankee Springs, situ­
ated somewhere between Middleville and Ada that Mr.
TUB ■MTHNGB BAHEEEU-WedDtaday, April 21. 19*11

�Patten remembers encountering a really typical land­
lord. one Icwia, of Christian name uncertain, jolly, full
of the merriment that is associated with rotundity; not
necessarily very deep, but certainly a long way around.
"You’ve quite a house," the boy remembers his father
raying And quickly came the response from the Land­
lord Lewis: -Yep, got five stories" But the stories were
not ranged in the usual order, one upon another. They
were spread over a deal of ground, and consisted of
as many individual log cabins which, altogether com­
posed the five-story tavern.
Something occurred at dinner the night our way­
farers enjoyed the entertainment of Yank' Lewis, as
he seems also to have been called by the less reverent,
that made a quite profound impression upon Master
Lyman. There was quite a company assembled, and
some cornmotion was occasioned by the refusal of seve­
ral of the guests to dine at the same table with a
negro, wbp chanced to be &gt;lso a guest of the tavern
that night They would not sit at the table with him,
they said—had never heard of such a thing, and were
deeply Indignant, pushing back their chairs, and call­
ing for the proprietor.
In came •'Yankee" Lewis who was then apprized of
the difficulty and this is what he did. Policy forbade
his not acquiescing with the demands of numbers. But
tie ordered a small table spread nearby in the some
apartment, and set for two. Here tie Invited the sur­
prised colored man io dine with him, and there they
sat, having a bully time together, while those who had
caused all the disturbance sulked have forgotten to
ask just what
'
'
The towp of, their destination was to prove indeed
a very small and stragglcy place, all brooks and
shanties, combining an effect of the rough and ready
mining town impermanence with the already blossom­
ing type of solid rural construction. Where now are the
most built up and the busiest quarters, be was to find
principally swamps, springs and streams. He was to
find the river much higher than it is today—at least
encroaching a great deal farther into town. There were
to bo seen cows driven through the streets, herds of
them Jingling bells, each striking a note of its own,
meadow land where the trees had been cleared away,
and single bovlnes driven from door to door to be milk­
ed—the only herd—of milk wagons of the forties and
fifties.

During the Spring vacation,* the W. O. Colemans
visited their daughter and family, Mr. and Mrs. Dean
Dingman and baby at Ponderosa, N. Y. The Don
Gouchers accompanied them and visited Mrs. Goucher's
sister, Mrs. Esther York at Syracuse.

Lakewood Launches New
‘Vote-Write’ Plan May 4

Du, APB,-Colo. Sgt. Pettit, a fire protection technician,
u assigned to a unit of the Aerospace Defense Com­
mand. He previously served at Phan Rang AB. Vietnam.
He Is a 1960 graduate of Sunfield High School. His wife,
Robin. Is the daughter dPMr. and Mrs Robert C. Dalloa of Anchorage. Alaska.

In an effort to get citizens involved in supporting
property tax relief, the Lakewood Board of Education
will ask all voters to participate in the -Vote-Write"
project on school millage election day. To participate,
each citizen will be asked to vote and to write his legis­
lators on Tuesday, May 4th. A “1,000 toUen to Lansing"
is the goal.
The Lakewood Education Association will provide
franked, addressed envelopes for citizens to use. Both
the board and the LEA have for semal, years bein work­
ing through their state association jn:)ux effort to shift
school operation coats from the property tax to more
state income tax, but with little success.
Nothing is as effective as people power to get legis­
lators to act, cites Supt. William Eckstrom “However,
when checking with people concerned with the in­
equalities of the property tax, we estimate less than
one in five lias written his legislators. We hope "Vote­
Write” will change all that In a hurry, he commented,”
Supt. Eckstrom said.
Eckstrom staled that Gov. Milliken’s recent proper!
on school tax reform is a step in the right dirN«Sn
and deserves study and support. It is possible jMTtax
relief could come as soon as the 1972-73.#ctfeol year.

This would mean the school millage. 1^'kpproved May
4th, would need to be levied for only the 1971-72 school
year. "This would really be great," Supt. Eckstrom said
enthusiastically. "The tax payer would be taxed more
fairly and those of us charged with trying to operate
a school system would know what funds were available
to us without the crisis of millage elections, he con­
cluded.
On May 4th Lakewood voters will decide on a 11.7
mill proposition that renews 9 mills that are expiring,
with an additional 2.7 mills to cover increased school
costs since 1968. A second proposition would provide one
additional mill for elementary curriculum Improvement^.

loudest phrase heard was "Man, is It cold I”
They ware not referring to the pancakes, served hot
with Vermontville-made syrup — but rather to weather
conditions. The Legionnaires were prepared to flip 2,500

There were about 20 entries in the Children's parade

group for their four-step explanation of maple syrup
making, tapping the tree, gathering the sap, boiling down
the syrup and packaging the finished product. The chil­
dren were Patti, Sherri and Bobbi Brimmer, children of

�IF IT FITZ
by Jim Fitzgerald
I’VE GOT A PROBLEM. ANN
Dear Ann Landen:
I certainly never thought I’d ever write to you. Then
I got married. Since then. I've wanted to drop you a
line at least once a week. But I’ve been too busy.’ One
of the things I’ve been busy at is reading your column
every day.
"Did you read Ann Lander’s today?" my wife asks
me at breakfast. I always know what this means. It
means you have again punctured huge holes in the head
of some dumbo husband who made a twitchy move
toward daylight. And my wife is telling me I will bene*
fit from your wise advice because, by an amazing coin­
cidence, I am the same kind of a dumbo. These amaz­
ing coincidences occur once every weekday and some­
times twice on Sundays.
/
If I do not read your column by dinner time. I will
be reminded again. Have you ever eaten a layer cake
with one of your columns between the layers? It is

something to chew on.
Listen. Ann, I don't really mean to be critical. You
give a lot of stupid answers but thia ia not all your
fault You are asked a lot of stupid questions. And be­
sides. these complaining women usually dont give you
all the facts to work on. Take that woman who was
worried because her husband wore her nightgown to
bed. You advised her to bundle Dumbo off to the funny
farm. Your advice would have been different had you
known that Dumbo's wife has somehow lost 03 pairs
of his pajamas in the laundry in Just two years. In
Dumbo's pajama drawer there Is nothing except her
nightgowns and 26 jars of cold cream. Should he wear
cold cream to bed?
However, Ann, please do not be discouraged by the
nagging of just one dumbo husband who cant stomach
newsprint in his cake. Yours is a voice that should not
be stilled. The world needs someone who deals publicly
and intelligently with the important issues of the day.
How else would Myrtle Housewife know it is socially
acceptable to be slightly rude to a neighbor divorcee
who borrows Myrtle’s husband to do some plumbing and
plumb forgets to return him? Gracious. Remember that
divorcee who didn’t even return the cups that Dumbo
came in?

I'll admit. Ann, the biggest reason I’ve wanted to
write you in the past was to give you heck for loading
my wife’a^gun. But that's not the. reason for this letter.
The truth is, I’ve got a problem. . . .
It’s my wife. She is a backseat driver when we axe
not in a car.
This incredible truth struck me when I took the
family to the movie in the big city last Sunday. Before
sitting down, it is always my task to storm Che popcorn
counter for sufficient supplies to feed four fat faces for
two hours. I get in line behind the brass rail which
separates the spenders from -the lookers. The kids gel
the seats. My wife waits on the other side of the rail,
ready to help me carry off the booty. Only ahe doesn't
wait. She leans over the rail and gives me directions.
"Not too much butter,- she says. “Dont forget the
napkins. Are you sure Jumbo sizes are big enough? Not
tco much salt. The butter is right in front of you. You
pay that girl over there. Dont forget your change.”
Some movie day, for sure, she is going Co fall over
the rail. Which tarings me to my problem, Ann:
If she does fall, should I put down the popcorn and
pick her up? Or should I step over her and deliver the
popcorn to my starving children? Please answer, quickly,
Ann. This popcorn is getting heavy.

pal.

sympathetic teacher, Mrs. Bea Schachter and Marcia
Hengesbach Is the friend back home, Ellen, who hears
Sylvia's secret thoughts via the mall.

so insolent because he's been so damaged” and she feels
she can help him. This student is played by Oreg Bush.

Ed Englerth, Bob Gorham, Sue Christie, Lindy Allen,
Nadine Lowe, Jeff Bruce, Bob Allen, Pat Clement,

corner of Cedar Creek and Pifer Roads, has grown from
a “handful" of people to a membership of 65.
In 1950 a few members came from surrounding areas

home temporarily. Membership gradually increased and
in 1954 the Bunnell Methodist Church was purchased,
Recently the church lias been completely carpeted, re­
decorated, and another room and a larger vestibule
added.
Continuous membership growth has added musical
talent, and more children's departments. We have an
average attendance of 10 to 15 In each of the three
children’s departments.
The Dorcas Society keeps on hand, clothing, new
sheets and blankets for local community needs. Anyone
needing help may contact Mrs. Frank Cruttenden, the
i
boxes ** clothing are packed
dpu^riers to be used In disaster areas.
_ stor, ’Elder Olav Lablanca, came to
the United States from Norway several years ago. For
the past few years seminary students from Andrews
University have been coming to assist as part of their
training
The Lord has blessed the little church fellowship
through the yean. It would be a pleasure to have com­
munity friends worship with us.

Tree Planting
At Nashville
Planting maple trees in
Nashville to replace some
that had to be taken out.
and to further maple syrup
making in that .community,
was started three years ago.
The undertaking was sort
Of a pet project For Harold
Christiansen who was then
president of the village, and
also president of the Nash­
ville Maple Syrup Associa­
tion. and he donated monej
from helping
mixesyrup to purchase the
trees.
The first year, with the
cooperation of Don Dietz
from Sunshine Valley Nur­
sery. some 40 trees were
planted. Last year about 50
trees were added, and this
year 68 maples were planted
throughout the community.
The trees are approxi­
mately eight years old. and
it will be a long time before
they are ready for tapping,
but it appears the tree­
planting project will con­
tinue each year, especially if
Mr. Christiansen has any­
thing to say about it.

Wednesday. May 5. 1811—THE HASTINGS BANNER

�-EDITORIALThe tact that Boy Scout Troop 175 spent a day cleaning
up a three-mile stretch of roadway in Yankee Springs is a
cad commentary on the irresponsible and sloppy attitude
of people in defacing the natural beauty of the landscape
with discarded trash. Nearly two truckloads of Junk, consistlng mostly of non-returnable bottles and cans, were
collected and hauled away—all this from only three miles
of roadway!
A salute to the Scouts for a worthwhile community
service—and shame on a public that made this project
necessary. Only a comparatively small percentage who
passed along that stretch of roadway were probably guilty
of littering. However, it takes only a "comparatively small
percentage" of the general public to deface the countryside.
•
•
•
•

Some believe that an answer to the roadway littering
problem would be to outlaw the use of cans and nonreturnable bottles in the sale of beverages, soft and other­
wise. This undoubtedly would help, but Is far from being
a solution. Cans and bottles were tossed along the roadways
long before the advent of the ■non-returnable” era. Also,
this type of Uttering Is only a fraction of the total Uttering
involved—•papers, sacks, cardboard containers, to name only
a few. In tact, roadsides seem to be a fair target for any
sort of Junk of a size to be conveniently tossed out of a
car window.
•
•
•
The answer to Uttering will not be found in new laws
and regulations, of which there are a plenty already.
Rather, the solution will be found when we, the people,
develop enough self pride to refrain from this sloppy habit
and consider each of ourselves a “committee of one” to
help keep the countryside clean.

Barry County has a real, authentic champion in the
person of Miss Raeanne Miller who came within one-tenth
of a point of taking first place in the Michigan Association
of Gymnastics finals in which thirty regional winners
competed in the senior division. A record such as that in
this difficult and spectacular sport doeant “just happen”
but comes only as the reward for long hours of practice
and an unfaltering ambition to attain complete mastery of
the many complicated maneuvers where form and precise
timing are so important. Add to the above, generous por­
tions of poise and self confidence needed to carry one
through under highly competitive conditions where skilled
judges are eying every movement to detect flaws in execu­
tion. Our congratulations to Miss Miller and the fine record
she has achieved so far. Keep the good work up.

Whatever else .may develop during these final Hastings
Centennial Weeks, it Is at least bringing Into full bloom
the greatest assortment of whiskers mustaches and side­
bums in various combinations that have been seen here
since the City first received its charter one hundred yean
ago. With a month still to go before the “Big Week” begins,
there is still time for some of the "late bloomers" to come
up with sufficient growths to satisfy the watchful eyes of the
vigilant Keystone Cops as they cruise the streets for pro­
spective “customers.”
As Centennial Time approaches, let's not forget that
Friday and Saturday of each week are official costume days
when old-time dresses, suits and hats, or models of same
should be wo*n by those who wish to give the event a little
extra boost. After all, this Is the only "Centennial" we will
ever ceiebrate. So. let's go all out and enjoy it while we may.
•
•
•
A considerable number of people here are at work
gathering material for a History of Hastings to be published
later. We know the final product will contain a volume of
interesting material, reproductions of old pictures, etc. If
the volume turns out to be on a par with the excellent
History produced by the people of Nashville two years ago,
that will be a real accomplishment.
Rep. Hale Boggs, in a special hearing, failed to sub­
stantiate his charge that the Federal Bureau of Investi­
gation taps congressional telephones.
Many a newspaper editorialist and correspondent of the
ultra-liberal variety jumped to the conclusion that Mr.
Boggs knew what he was talking about, hopped an the
supposed “bandwagon" and began to berate the FBI head
for prying into territory where he had no right to be—
Invasion of “privacy," so to speak.
It is really rather, amusing to hear editors and corres­
pondents of both the newspaper and T.V. variety taking
anyone to task over the^invaslon of privacy issue—since
who pries more deeply into the private affairs and lives—
especially of congressmen—than reporters in search of a
juicy headline or a scoop?

It is an anomaly of our times that in a cycle of rising
crime throughout the nation, the FBI is being attacked and
criticized without any solid basis of evidence in an apparent
effort to undermine public confidence in its head, J. Edgar
Hoover. Many an editorialist who is using this low quality
evidence to discredit Mr. Hoover would be highly incensed
or worse if evidence of the same quality were used to
discredit either his personal competency or that of his
newspaper.
We hold no brief for Mr. Hoover. Maybe he has reached
the age where he should step aside for a/younger man.

THE HASTINGS BANNER—Wednesday. May 5, 1971

However, in recognition of his years of fine and effective
service to the Nation, he should not be forced out as the
result of Innuendos based on hearsay and false information
—Especially so, since no proof has been put forward to
Indicate that the FBI head is still not functioning in a
thoroughly capable manner.
In our opinion, the fault with the FBI Is not that It is
using “electronic surveillance" in too irresponsible a man­
ner but rather that recent court decisions and liberalized
interpretations of Constitutional provisions are making it
ever more difficult, if not impossible, for the FBI to make
proper use of electronic surveillance in combating crime.
In an orderly society there has to be some balance
between complete personal liberty and measures to protect
society, Itself. In our opinion, the present trend is going
much too far in what is purported to be “protection of the
rights of the Individual." The greatest gainers from this
trend are the criminal and hoodlum elements who hide &lt;
behind technicalities to protect their own illicit operations.
In order to arrest a person these days, an ordinary cop
out to make a routine arrest has to be something of a
constitutional lawyer to successfully find his way through
the labyrinth of technicalities placed in his way. No wonder
that police become discouraged with the situation and
recruitment lags.
J. Edgar Hoover has served the nation too well to be
farced to go out under a cloud not of his own making and
which lacks any substantiation of fact.

To the Editor:

Since man's arrival on earth there has been war and
violence, but man has tried to quiet his violent nature and
live in peace with his kind. Jesus sought peace in his life,
Thoreau sought peace, Ghandi sought peace, and we seek
it yet. How incongruous that the Barry County Sheriff
Department, our “peacekeepers", finds it appropriate to
proudly display their bigotry with a sign proclaiming the
contemporary symbol of peace as “The American Checken
Tract" Although amusing. I can only wonder how this
attitude is conducive to the improvement of relations
between our law enforcers and the public.

POSTSCRIPTS

VISITING DIGNITARIES AT THE BALL.
There will be numerous out-of-town guests here for
the Centennial Ball among them being Judge and Mrs.
Richard Robinson of Eaton Rapids. It is interesting to
note that this family has as much background in Barry
County as in Eaton County.
Judge Robinson, who was in service with the Marines
for almost five years, was overseas when their daughter.
Ann. was born. Mrs. R. was then residing in Delton with
tier, parents-in-law, Rev. and Mrs. William D. Robinson.
I Rev. Robinson was there five years.) It was in the
Delton Church where Ann was baptized by her grand­
father and she waz-M..nmnths old before her father ever
saw her, except In pidtares. The Robinsons’ son, Pat,
was also baptised there and their daughter, Jane, was
later baptized in the Rev. and Mn. Robinaon’s home in
Hastings. Mn. Richard Robinson says, "We liked Delton
so much and my tint trips through Hastings were back
then when we took M-43 to go home."
Mr. and Mn. Edward Morey of .Charlotte will be
among the guests at The Ball. Mr. Matey was the
Charlotte Centennial chairman in 1963. He has recently
been named to a new post —we quote from the Lansing
State Journal.
FRONTIER DAYS— Edward Morey. Charlotte,

■EBITAGE IS FOB EVEBYONE.
The main topic of conversation thia week is the Cen­
tennial Ball and why not. Who do you know tn your
acquaintanceship that has ever been to an authentic
Centennial Ball? It can be both pleasure and privilege
plus the sense of reliving a small part'of the past. As
life goes on heritage becomes an important part of be­
ing. Have a part in this for yourselves, your families,
and your children._______ _____________
DON’T MISS THE GOOD OLD SUMMERTIME*.

Attending a Centennial Ball is a Once in a Life-Time
Thing." The fact that the date. May Sth. coincides with
the Mother's Day Bunday weekend couldn’t present a
more appropriate occasion to honor maternal parents
than escorting them to the Centennial Ball.
Besides seeing the costumes, the decorations are
worthy of attendance. The Elks Club, with their lovely
ladies, the Vivians, have, and are, doing a superb job
with the entire programming of this historic event
I Decorations are worth the price of admission.)
Mr. and Mrs. Phil Hopiing are the co-chairmen for
the Centennial Ball and they say that Gary Cuyler was
the man with the ideas for the background effects. He
did the sketches for the over-all decor and many others
have worked hours (at the Community Bkig.) in making
the scenery for the Ball setting Saturday evening. Among
the others, besides these three, assisting have been, for
carpenter work, A. J. Young, Harold Tasker, and couples
on all projects, the Leo Hamps, with Tbny and "Peaches"
Young. (There are many others to be listed in the com­
plete roster next week). They all exclaim about the
cooperation and enthusiasm on the part of merchants,
city and schools. This is total team-work in operation!

It’s an occasion you wait want to miss.
The Centennial Ball theme is a nostalgic songtitle,
“In The Good Old Summer Time" and bow about "You
All Come."

THE TIME FOR REIGNING QUEENS.

Ill* “Queen” time again and this recall* the recent
naming of the Centennial Pioneer Queen. It couldn’t
have been a better selection, or more appropriate, than
the crowning of Mrs. Fred (Amy) Bower. Two of her
primary interests for years have been the Barry County
Historical Society and church work. She was one of
the early pioneers in working for the United Summer
Bible School for all area youngsters and the Women’s
Council of Churches has always had her active support.
It seem* only logical and natural to wonder what cur
"Pioneer Queen" thinks about all of this Centennial
Celebration. We asked her if she would please jot down
some of her opinions, views, ideas, or reactions, and here
are her remarks.
t
Banqaet—
“

TWO SCHOOLS OF THOUGHT—FASHION TREND.

How do you vote for Centennial Men’s Chapeaux?
Do you favor the derby or the high hat? What a choice!
They are both formal attire but we never knew that
there is such a thing as a soft-top derby. It can be
creased in the center and look very much like a Hom-

One nice feature—the goodly number of children and
teen-agers present along with the “newcomer?" to the

city and the old "rvsldenlera.” i After all the former
ones arc the ones who probably will Ik in on the 150th
celebration!) Tl»e banquet waa a “good starter" for the
Centennial celebration followed by the Treasure Hunt.

Treasure Hani—

This engendered a lot of searching and brought about
many.phone calls and contacts and helped to further
“neighboring." Now is the time to save souvenir coins,
pictures, news items for the 2012 celebration!
Centennial Csstaasea—

The wearing of the attractive colorful centennial
dresses and the men’s contributtons have added to the
build-up of “atmosphere." (Probably the men have
put the most time and effort into it—it takes weeks to
grow a beard.) Many whole families have participated.
One wonders what the Ball will bring forth.

Spirit of ’ll—
I believe Frank Ritchie gave us a good slogan when
be asked us to get into the Spirit of *71. Every community
needs to learn to work and play and Mve together in a
neighborly way. enjoying ourselves tn good wholesome
fun and helping one another.
Robert Frost aaML—

j
“Man needs having something to look backward to
with pride and something to look forward to with hope."
The Centennial celebration gives Hastings a grand
opportunity to do thia very thing, young and old; white
and blue shirted (even red or orange ones); every one
pulling together to make every feature a success.
So.—tell your family pioneer stories;* bring out your
old pictures and clippings and keepsakes and have a
good time but keep an eye on the future too. •! found
even the First graders love to bear these tales.

In reference to our “Postscripts" of last week telling
of Mr*. Charles Langeveld (Janet McIntyre) who now
lives in Havasu City, Arts, we stated that we were having
on display the two copies of the Lake Havasu City Her­
ald which she sent us. The day after we had placed the
issues on our counter, a tourist pawing through Hea­
tings visited our office. The Lake Havasu City Herald
immediately “caught her eye" as she happened to be from
that city. She was Mrs. Norris Ingle who with her hus­
band was traveling through the States looking especially
for fishing lakes. With their camper they had covered
3.000 miles and visited every State west of the Ml—Wfprt
except North and South Dakota. They were much en­
thused about Michigan’s lakes and streams but were un­
decided as to where they would eventually locate. The
Ingjps were also acquainted with the Langcrvelds but
(had not known that they were visiting Janet’s home
town. &gt;

GOP Women's Luncheon May 14

1
* Hasting* High School
There is now a "People's Peace Treaty" being talked
of around the country. The treaty has the support of
many well known public figures. Some of the supporter*
are Rev. Ralph Abernathy. Jules Peiffer, Dick Gregory,
Prof. George Wald. Rick Hudson. Mrs. Martin loftwr
King. Jr, Dr. Benjamin Spock, Joan Bae* Betty Friedan and such Congress as Julian Bond. Charles Goodetl,
Eugene McCarthy, and many others. For those of you
who have not read the treaty yet, it reads as follows:
“Americans agree to Immediate and total withdrawal
from Vietnam, and publicly to set a date by which all
U. 8. military forces will be removed.
Vietnamese agree to participate in an immediate
cease-fire, and will enter dtscuaaiom on the procedures
to guarantee the safety of all withdrawing troops, and
to secure the release of all military prisoners.
Americans pledge to end the Imposition of Thleu. Ky.
and Khiern on the people of South Vietnam tn order to
ensure their right of self-determination, and to ensure
that all political prisoners are released.
Vietnamese pledge Co form a provisional coalition
government to organise democratic elections in which
an South Vietnamese can participate freely without the
presence of any foreign troops, and to enter discussions
of procedures to guarantee the safety and political free­
dom of persons who cooperated with either side in the
war.
Americans and Vietnamese agree to respect the in­
dependence, peace and neutrality of Laos and Cambodia.
Upon these points of agreement, we pledge to end
the war. We will resolve all other questions in mutual
respect for the rights of self-determination of the peo­
ple of Vietnam and of the United States."
The reason for this peace treaty being circulated is
that even though it could bring peace to Vietnam with­
in weeks, it is the U. a and not the North Vietnamese
who will not accept the terms of the treaty. The Peace
Treaty is completely agreeable to the North.
the
Vietnamese want is the U. a to promise to get out of
Vietnam and they will release ail POW’b and participate
in an immediate cease-fire. By these terms we have
nothing to lose. But Nixon refuses to accept the treaty.
The reason seems to be that Nixon does not want peace.

The Barry County Republican Women's Club meeting
in May will be a luncheon at the Hotel Hastings Friday,
May 14. at 1:1K
.
Jerry Roe. the executive secretary of the State Central
Committee, will speak along the Centennial theme: The
Republican Party Then and Now.
.
Tickets for the luncheon may be purchased from the
president, Mrs. H. A. Adrounie or Mrs. William Hayes,

Hundreds of tray favors have been made through the
years and given to Pennock Hospital, the Barry County
Medical Faculty and recently to Sunset Acres nursing
home.
In 1962 the club donated &gt;300 to the Community Bldg­
fund and in 1965 gave the library &gt;200. Trees and ahmbs
at Tyden Part have been labeled, shrubs, shrubs have
been planted around the Historical Marker on the Cburt
House lawn and tulips bloom in the patio at Pennock
Hospital due to the dubs back exercising efforts.
Thornapple Garden Club has been faithful in con­
tributing to the Indian Scholarship Fund of the State
HKferaUon. contributed to the National Home &lt;rf the
State Federation's at St. Louis, Mo., and through the
years, furnished one scholarship to Teachers Environ­
mental School at Higgins Lake reaping a most reward­
ing harvest of increased in this, Our World.
The most extensive project completed recently has
been the landscaping of the Barry County Medical Fa­
cility. Plans were made by an accredited landscape
architect and the work completed under direction of
the club.
Seven Conservation-Environmental County wide ex­
hibitions have been carried through to successful con­
clusions winning state, national and awards of merit
for Barry County. Many schools have given splendid
.xupport for these endeavors by placing timely exhibits
and visiting the show.
Enough of the Past. It is Forward with Purpose in

museum at Chariton Park and ambition to complete
the west portion this Spring. Natural materials, native
to that particular area, will be used.

The Spring and Summer season of 1971 bean the ear­

Many product* may be put to useful purpose as mulch.
Some of them are grass clippings, hay, straw, buckwheat
hulls, shredded corncob©, marsh: grass usually called
marsh hay, leaves and paper.
There are many ways or methods of using paper

contains health giving (race elements important to plant

In as much as paper and paper products are respon­

logical to inltate organic recycling with this refuse.
There are a* many methods of treating this unusual

are:
(1) Shred the newspapers (this is not necessary but
faster) mix them with water in a pulping machine. They
become flowing slurry easily poured where needed quick­

(2) Shred fine and place about plant materials and

Royal.
Every inch a Chryrier. Yet with Royal,
the deal starts 1112 leu than Newport,
previously our lowest-priced series.
The Royal is just as big as our most lux­
urious New Yorker. And bigger than its com­
petition — Buick LeSabre and Olds Delta 88.
Outside and in.
Royal's 360 V-8 delivers more power, too.
Power for freeway cruising without
strain. Power for safe
passing. All on
regular gas.

Royal also gives you a better suspension
system: torsion bars instead of coil springs.
The ride is firmer. More controlled.
On b trip to the supermarket, you might
not notice the difference. On a quick express­
way lane change or a
tight turn, you surely
will.

Outside of Chrysler products, only two
American cars have torsion bars —Cadillac
Eldorado and Oldsmobile Toronado.
Another difference: Royal's body is
welded into a single solid Unibody. It's the
strongest way to build a car. And there are
no body bolts to work free and rattle.
Buick and Olds use the old body-boltedto-frame technique.

�the Devil's Soup Bowl or Old Baldy. Thanks to the ef­
fort* of the Historical Societies and the Fresh Out of
the Attic Column by Harold Burpee In The Banner
some record is being made of sites with historical In­
terest. There is sUU a need for a map that will record
these interesting local color names.
Some of our county natural features have special
names and I hope to uncover some more and even sug­
gest a few. I wonder who many readers know that Has­
tings, Middleville and Nashville all are situated on a
chain of hills stretching across the county known as the
Charlotte Moraine System. Thousands of years ago a
great continental ice sheet, possibly miles thick, flowed
down from Canada and across the State from the direc­
tion of Saginaw Bay.
It eventually flowed down into Indiana and then with
a change in the
climate retreated in a Jerkey
pattern back from where it came. The front stood for
many years along the Thomapple River Valley. New
ice moved down from Canada at the same rate as it
melted. Thia great one way conveyer brought enormous
loads of dirt and rock material* and dumped them along
the front forming the chain of hills.

By Lansing Gilbert
To recite a long aerie* of facte may appeal to some
people and I hope the many facte I ahaH be reporting
will be interesting but more important I hope to stim­
ulate the action minded people to relate to the facte
with activities that will add richness and dimension to
living in Barry County..
Many who have traveled in the old West have come
home completely fascinated by the strange colorful
names people have given to the towns and features of
the areas. We have some interesting place names in
Barry County. I wonder how many readers know where
the Hubbard Hills are or the Hart Hida or Brush Ridge.

Unusual Offer

Flowing out from the front was a whole series of
rivers of melting water forming the valleys' where Ota*
Creek. Cedar Creek, Fall Creek and High Bank Creek
now flow in reverse direction. Notice on the county
map the long fingers of valley* reaching out from the
old glacial front.
Now what I am suggesting is we begin to learn some
of the dramatic things that are associated with the
formation of our wonderful county landscape and
begin to give these unusual features colorful names
chat will help us relate to the knowledge. The names
do not necessarily have to be technical—in many cases
those associated with human history are better. We
might even take some cues from the western folks on
selecting names. I wonder how many readers know
where Mt. Hope Is in Barry County?—a due—It was
once thought to be the highest land In the county. I
wonder how many readers know what is the highest
point in the county and how high it is? We will prob­
ably get back to this subject in a later column.

IF IT FITZ
by Jim Fitzgerald
Warren Avis, who tries harder because he'a No. 2,
does without them in Acapulco. And Mr. John, the fa­
mous hatter, doesn’t even wear them in New York.
These are Important men, hep to where the action is,
Charlie, and they sot the styles. You know what they
are not wearing?
Socks.
That’s IL The latest thing for men is to wear no
socks. Just shoes. This is going to kill my wife. She gives
me heck when I wear short socks that give the gasping
populace an occaMonal glimpse of my sexy skin. She
says nothing looks worse than a man who crosses bis
legs and reveals his ugly shin. (Actually, she is just
afraid my fetching ankle will attract parH^ng females.)
AT ANY RATE, she has real trouble now. This sock­
teas deal is no joke. Bocks sales were down over a mil­
lion pairs last year. The hosiery manufacturers are in
a flap. They are conMdwIng a health fear campaign But
if cancer can’t kill cigarettes, with the threat of athletes
foot put doth between Mk John’s tootsies and his red
suede boots? I think not, dearie.
. I have never liked socks, mostly because I can never
find them when I need them. They get lost among the
dust balls underneath the bed (baho, dear). They are
put in the wrong drawer*. I am never sure U my socks

have shrunk or belong to my son.
I can remember asking my father where mother was,
and he’d answer, “Ob. she's down in the basement‘losing
socks.” Mother used to toss 3 socks per washerload. My
wife has about the same average -and she has the same
rule: Never lose matching socks. Put one sock in his
drawer and let him go mad trying to find the mate.
SOMETIMES ROMANCES can be attached to socks.
Girts knit argyles for their boyfriends. A girt knit me
a pair once and they reached to my crotch. I showed
them to people by pulling the tops through holes in
my pockets. That was the end of that romance.
.
Bowing to middle age, I have forsaken colorful, wool
sucks in favor of dark silks. The trouble is, on any mur­
ky morning I can’t tell dark brown from dark Hue
from black. So my socks often dont match. No one will
ever notice I tell my wife. What If you get Nt by a car,
she says. And I scoff. An accident victim who still wean
khaki aborts, 21 years after V-J Dey, can handle worry
about the world discovering him in mismatched socks.
ACTUALLY, I CAN think of only one good reason
to continue wearing socks. I read once that Al Capone
never wore used socks. He wore ’em once and threw
them away. That’s class. I’ve always wanted Co be rich
enough to throw my socks out the window every night
I guess that would impress the neighbors.
There’s Just one thing that prompt* me to buck the
eooklem trend. If I forsook socks, the only thing people
could give me for Christmas would be handkerchiefs. I
don’t need that many handkerchiefs. I am so lasy, not
even my txxe will run.

MICHIGAN AVF. WESLEYAN CHURCH HISTORY

The first service we have any record of was in 1887.
Rev. Isiah Martin was the pastor. Services were held at
Fisher Church, North Irving Church and Red Brick
Schoolhouse on Center Road. The pastor held four serv­
ices on Sunday and three the following Sunday. The
other pastors from 1887-1003 were H. D. Cheney, R.
Adams, again Isiah Martin, A. S. Bunnell. P. Wright,
again H. D. Cheney and Mrs. Jennie Ayers.

In 1903 under Rev Bradley’s pastorate we have the
first record of any services of the Wesleyan Methodist
denomination being held tn the City of Hastings. These
first services wert held tn different homes of friends. In
December during this same year the Advent Church was
.rented for regular services. Two years later (April 23.
1905 &gt; tlie Hastings Class was organized with five charter
members, Betsy Malliken, Grace Bradley. Grace Smith.
Frank Cramer and Nora Cramer. This class met in the
Advent Church for the purpose of becoming an incor­
porated body, articles and bylaws were adopted and
signed March 22. 1000.

and was tom down. In August, 1947, the Hastings Church
and North Irving Church became an Independent work,
“each having its own pastor. The Rev. H. V. Decker was**
the first full time pastor on the Hastings Charge.
In 1067, the Pilgrim Holiness Church, and the Wes­
leyan Methodist Church of America merged, giving the
Church the name The Wesleyan Church. It was formerly
The Wesleyan Methodist Church of Hastings. Now it is
the Michigan Avenue Wesleyan Church. There have been
many changes over the years, but one thing has not
changed, that is we still welcome all who wish to come
and worship with us. We are a church that is looking
to the future with anticipation. We want to do our part
to make Hastings a better community in which to live.
The Bible is our guidebook and JESUS CHRIST is our
leader. We may not have all the answers but our leader
does. Come and visit us sometime soon.

SCHOOL DEADLINE

Lice and mites may re­
duce egg production. Hens
go off feed, become droopy,
develop diarrhea, and often
■die, notes Arthur Steeby.
Barry County Extension Di­
rector.
Look for lice and nor­
thern fowl mites by parting
feathers near the vent or on
the breasts of birds, recom­
mends Steeby. Also, com­
mon chicken mites are of­
ten found in nest litter and
in cracks around roosts,
floors, walls and ceihngs.
Finding a few lice or
mites means that within a
month, damaging parasite
populations may accumu­
late. Inspect birds frequently and immediately apply
control measures if you find
parasites.
• Insect and Mite Control
for Poultry," Michigan State
University Extension Bulle­
tin E-405, provides detailed
recommendations and in­
structions. This bulletin was
recently updated, so get a
copy now. suggests Steeby.

Barry County Cooperative

He is especially proud of his front end alignment

81,000 if we bad purchased a factory installed frame,” he
said.
Brown, who has pretty much had a free band in
developing his own course offerings in auto mechanics,
serves under an advisory committee as required by the
code of the State Department of Vocational Education.
Serving on this committee are Art Meade, Gene Carr,
Ed Iass and Bill Deegrange, all in the automotive field.
"They go over what is going on and offer advfce
about what should be included in the course offerings,"
Brown said.
Asked wbat additional tools be would like to have he
quickly replied:
“We need three things—a steam cleaner that costs
8450, a brake lathe that runs $1,200 and an on-the-car
wheel balancer that costa $650.”
He also talks about having a transmission tester but
. thought he could make one from an old baler and a
couple of other odds and ends.

The Tbomapple-Kellogg Board of Education ha* set
the operational millage election on June 14. 1971. Thia
I* the annual election and school board members will
be elected at that time.
The millage is 45 mill* for three years and. will be
used to open and operate the new high school and also
for cost of living increases and Increase In operation for
the other facilities of the District, school officials said.
This is an Important election because it will deter­
mine whether the school district will open the needed
new high school and will enable the school to have room
to better educate the children. The need for additional
classrooms are not only needed in the high school, but
. also in the Middle School and Elementary School.
The additional classrooms in the new high school
will enable the high school staff to better utilise them.
This means they will be able to do more in each class
because the classrooms will be set up with equipment
to better teach the students. This also is true in the
Middle School where classrooms will be better utilized
for 5th through 8th grades. The elementary students
will be housed in building classrooms and not in port­
ables and this should help the teaching staff to better
educate the students.
Many rumors have been started since the election
held on March 14. “The Board of Education would like
all residents to ask question* of the administration so
the rumors may be stopped. The number to call is 795­
3313 and all questions will be answered," officials de­

clared.

Beautiful Thoughts
On the fourth of January
To Hastings, Michigan I went.
And there In Mrs. Damson's room
Delightful hours were spent
Remembering Just my simple name
Was very easy for you,
But with 26 faces storing at me
I thought "What will I ever do???"

You all were very kind to me.
Which helped me learn your names
Yet every so often I’d get mixed up
And start calling Robby-James.
First I started observing the class
To see what had to be done.
Mrs. Damson had her certain way
To make learning interesting and fun.
Twto full weeks quickly passed
It was then time for me to start teaching
So many subject* to concentrate
Like spelling, math, and reading.

WAY BACK WHEN
PART I
By H. D. Bargee
In David R. Cook's history of Prairieville Tbwnahip,
written many years ago he* had the following to say
about our Lower Peninsula of Michigan: “In writing up
the Pioneer history of the township of PralrieviBe. I
thought it would be much more Inleresttng to review
the early history of the State and thus show the many
changes that have taken place, before the county was
organised and divided into townships as at present I
found so many things I did not know, concerning its
early history, which were very interesting to me, and
thinking they would interest you as well, I have in­
cluded them in my paper. Pint then as all know, that
prior to the Revolutionary War, the territory of Mich­
igan belonged to the British Government, and was in­
habited by the Indians, th* three principal tribes at
that time were the Chippewas, Ottawas, and Pottow*ttamies.
In 1774, two yean before the dfirta ration of Inde­
pendence was signed, by an Act at the British Parlia­
ment, the territory of Michigan was set off and made
a part of the province of Quebec. Four yearn later in
1771, the Captain General of Canada divided the pro­
vince of Quebec to which Michigan had been attached.
into four districts, and the peninsula of Michigan was
named Hesse, in honor of the Hessian troops, then serv­
ing under King George the 3rd. I guess our forefathers
didn’t like that name. By the treaty of peace after the
close at the Revolutionary War. Michigan became a
part of the Government of the United States and at

prevented settlements by the whites. In 1794 the British
surrendered Detroit and their other military poets to
the United States, and not until then did Michigan come
into poseeadou of the Government. Four yean later in.
IMO the Government set off the western part of Mich­
igan which included Barry County with Indians, and
in IMS the eastern part was set off.**
That was the end of what David Cook had to say in
his paper, and now lets do a little researching in an­
other book and see how those Indians were getting along
about that time.
From a book entitled "Michigan. The Old North­
west,** the first paragraph In the foreword reads as fol­
lows: "AH of us, at one time or another, have asked
what this area was like before the pioneers settled in it.
So many years have passed since that time, however,
that it te Impossible to get this information at first hand
except from books. One such book was written nearly
80 yean ago by Flavius J. Uttiejohn.**
Mr. Uttlejohn was a man at many accompiishments.
He surveyed the original plat of the City of Allegan,
be was Circuit Judge for many yean, and most import­
ant, be was an expert on the subject of Indian lore.
I will give you a brief resume of what it was sup­
posed to have been like tn this section in the last years
of the 1700’s and the early yean of the 1800**, accord­
ing to Mr. Littlejohn. He admits there is nothing in
writing and that you can only go on what has been
handed down from generation to generation among the
Indiana.
In the first two paragraphs of Chapter 1. Mr: Uttle­
john states: *Tn the dosing years of the last century
the Lower Peninsula of Michigan waa chiefly an unex­
plored wilderness. There were, however, even thus early,
scattered setttementa of white people along the Detroit
River and the western shores at Lake Erie and Bt. Clair,
The residents were principally of French descent, of
quiet domestic habits, destitute of energy or enterprise,
and possessed of very few qualities requisite for border
life.
Their homesteads and cultivated fields had each a
narrow frontage on the water, with a range inland of a
mile or two, as an extreme limit. Beyond this line of
actual occupation, the whole interior and western por­
tion of the Peninsula waa to evffiaed man an unknown
region. It waa seldom Cmversed by the footsteps of even
the most adventurous of the white pioneer hunters and
trappers. ** End of quote.
Here in our own Immediate vicinity, according to
Mr. Littlejohn's book, the Indians seemed to stack up as
follows: Down around what is now Mishawaka and Elk­
hart, Indiana, Chief Elkhart headed the Shawnee Tribe.
Down around Prairie Roode (now Schoolcraft) and
Three Rivers, Chief Pokagon headed the PoUawatamtes
In the Kais ma ano River area from Kalama sno to Alle­
gan Chief Wakaaoo had charge of the Ottawa tribes
in that vicinity, and up in the Grand River Valley, the
Grand River Ottawas were headed by Chief Okemus.
Well according to legend. Chief Elkhart got real am­
bitious and was going to take this whole section of Mich­
igan from the Pottowatomies and the Ottawas. Someway
the red boys in this section got wind of what was up.
so Wakaaoo and Okemus took their warriors and went
to Three Rivers in Pokagon's territory and helped him
turn Elkhart back. Thia they did after a terrible slaugh­
ter. There is supposed to be Indian mounds at Three
Rivers today filled with the dead from this terrible
battle.
Elkhart went back to Indiana, and was not very long
for this world after this battle. The new Chief that took
his place waa Tecumseh, the man that afterward fought,
hammer and tongs, with the British against the Ameri­
cans in the War of 1813. A lot of you know the story
of how Richard M. Johnson, later vice-President under
President Van Buren, killed Tecumseh at dose range
with a shot from bis revolver. Our own Chief Noonday
of the Stater Mission and Chief Saginaw were by Tec­
umseh's side when he was killed. Noonday and Saginaw
carried Ma body to a tent or wigwam. Tecumseh's death
practically ended the war of 1812.
All through thia book there is story after story of
aggression. The Indians in the Upper Peninsula tried
to take the upper Lower Peninsula from the tribes al­
ready there. The Indians from around Green Bay, Wis­
consin, tried to take the Upper Peninsula from the tribes
there. The tribes from Copper Harbor tried to take the
country around Bault Bte. Marie from the tribes that
had called this home for a long time. In meet every case
the ambtttoua tribes met with disaster. I believe this
will give you some idea aa to what it was like here be­
fore the pioneers started to settle here around IBM and
IBM.

�However, nowhere was It pointed out that the 1.200 (give
or taka a few hundred) bonafide veteran* who look port in
the demonstration represented only about four-tenths of
one percent of the two and one-half million men who have
served in Vietnam. Do the actions of these comparatively
few accurately mirror the views, opinions and attitudes of
the great mass of those who have served in Southeast Asia?
No effort has been made to find the ansWer to that ques­
tion. But there is certainly room for doubt.

It to really fantastic and heartwarming to see the fine
co-operation and volunteer work that has and to going into
the Hastings Centennial Celebration. All thia without
assistance from professional organizations that specialize

in civic promotions of this sort.
No "professional" direction is involved here. Not one
penny is being spent for outside help.
With a talented Individual like Frank Ritchie devoting
full time plus to promoting this once-in-a-Ufetlme cele­
bration. we have something going for the city that an
outside professional couldn’t duplicate. Frank has been
-working hard at the job, himself, and this, Ln turn, has
served as a stimulus for others to give time and talent

According to Rep. Stanley M. Powell. * bill ha* been
introduced in the House of Representatives that should be.
of considerable interest to conservationist*—in fact to ail of
us interested In preserving wilderness areas In Michigan,
while there is still time.'
This bill recognize* two distinct kinds of wilderness
area*. One type would be of three thousand acres or more
located, in sparsely populated regions in Northern Michigan
and the Upper Peninsula; the other of one hundred and
sixty acres or leas, located primarily near the state’s large
urban centers. The bill specifies that the designated areas
would be forever protected against lumbering, Industrial or
mineral removal developments and would furthermore be
protected against the developments of roadways and facili­
ties for motorised vehicles or other man-made intrusions.
In our opinion, this bill has tremendous merit for both
the present and the future and should be enacted with a
minimum of delay. To those who wish to express an opinion
on tills bill, a letter to our two State Representatives and
three State Senators would be of value. These uddrebtea are
given elsewhere In this issue.

accordingly.
It seems to us. that the effort going into this celebration
with assistance coming from everywhere—all people gafT
all age groups—has been a wonderful thing in helping to
promote the sort of civic spirit so necessary and invaluable

in a community our size.
Since the Centennial Celebration is showing what we
can do. perhaps what we need are more project* of a
public spirited nature to encourage everyone to get in­
volved in civic projects of a strictly non-pohtcal and
non-controvcralal nature.

During the past several years, the media has emphasized
and glorified the right of dissent. During this same era, we
have also seen how too much involvement with dissent
has had' the practical effect of dividing our people and

[Voice of the People |

our nation
There is nothing inherently glorious or admirable in
dissent as such. Dissent can be silly, meaningless and
destructive as well as meaningful, valuable and construc­
tive. Any •‘pinhead” can arise and protest anything he
so chooses. That is his right under the Constitution which
recognises only the right to speak out and mahra no
qualifications that the dissent be intelligent, logical, con­
structive or based on facts. All the Constitution does is
guarantee the right of expression—and all things con­
sidered, that is as It should be.

However. along with concern for protecting the right
of free speech. It should also be recognised that a com­
munity can gain more and make greater progress through
co-operation than by dissent—even though dissent, too,
can have a useful function.
The above, we believe, ha* been amply demonstrated by
the fine civic spirit and accomplishment* that have been
generated to date through the medium of our Centennial
Celebration.

. Hill Auditorium at Ann Arbor is well past the half
century rfmrk. On the exterior, it is still an impressive
structure—tree of excess adornment, functional and. for its
size, much more graceful than most of the “moderne"
concrete and glass cheesebox structures.
But it is the auditorium, itself, that is really amazing.
It is not a thing of beauty and the lighting facilities, even
as far back as IMO were something of a Joke and haven't
improved too much over the years. But the acoustics are
really fantastic. A person on the stage, speaking Ln a
normal, conversational voice can lie heard throughout the
vast enclosure. Even seated under the overhang of the first
balcony, the sound comes through loud and clear.
Contrast all this with the ultra new Lincoln Center
in New York whose auditorium had the benefit of the last
word in acoustical planning and engineering. Thousands
were spent to insure perfect reception. And the result—
an acoustical mess that has been revised at considerable
cost many times and is still no paragon of perfection. Worn
the acoustical standpoint, Hill Auditorium i* still years
ahead of Lincoln Center.
The reason for ail this? No one probably knows. In

Durfee—Beth Fuller of Hastings spent the May lit
weekend with Debra Hunt . . . Mrs. Ftorest Falconer
and Mrs. Mildred Hammond accompanied Mr. and Mrs.
Gnaydon Hynes of Battie Creek to Butterworth Hospital
to call on Mrs. Glenna Hall. . . . Mrs. Leon Stanton
spent a recent weekend with Mr. and Mrs. Paul Bulow
of Dorr. ... Mr. and Mrs. Leon Heimer of Ionia and
Mr. and Mrs. James Helmer and son of Muskegon spent
Sunday, May 2. with Mr. and Mn. Orville PurseU.
---------------- KB---------------Woodland—The Lion* entertained their wives at their
meeting. Tom Niethamer “took" the group to Hawaii via
his pictures. They were very interesting and many would
now like to actually make the trip. Following the pro­
gram, President Tom informed the group Uwt they
would be expected to help with the alumni banquet May
22. The Lions will be serving again this year. If you did
not receive an invitation or know of someone that did
not, please notify me. Mrs. Glendon Curtis. Professor
Jeanne Fisher, * 1040 graduate, will be the guest speaker.
Sunday, May 2, visitors with Mrs. Hl! deed Hesterly
and Mrs: CUmena Schaibly were Mr. and Mrs. Herbert
Westerly and family and Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Tousley.
Later visitor* were George Schaibly and Mrs. Hercee
Tewksbury. They bad visited Mr. and Mr*. Kennard
Schaibly during the day. Mrs. K. Schaibly is a patient
at the hospital.
Firemen were alerted Friday morning. April 30. to the,
Louis Kellogg home. A grass fire had gotten started from
an electric fence reported fire chief Sandbrook. It was
soon brought under control with very little damage.
The Spring Concert was well attended. The children
did a fine job singing the songs they enjoy. One class
was interrupted slightly by a dog that wanted into the
act but they went right on a* though nothing hap­
pened.
Mr. and Mrs. Duane Clum and family were Sunday,
May 2, dinner guests with her sister, Mr. and Mrs. Glen­
don Curtis. In the evening they were joined by Mr. and
Mrs. Herald Classic and Mr. and Mrs. Galen Kilmer
and family. Greg and Valerie Clum had spent the week­
end here attending the school fair.
The 1071 school fair is now a thing of the past. A
large crowd was on hand to make it a success. Everyone
that worked deserves a big thank you. Some worked
harder and longer than others, but every job was im­
portant. Money to still needed for the library carpeting
and maybe other things will be purchased from the pro­
ceeds.

acoustical engineering there are obviously variables that
defy advance planning. The end result, one might say, is
an issue that is always in doubt.
Hill Auditorium was undoubtedly the beneficiary of
considerable good luck. Even attempting to duplicate its
acoustical qualities in a similar new structure would prob­
ably be a gamble.

What brought up this subject of Hill Auditorium was
the fact that we heard Leontyne Price there in the opening
of the May Festival Concert serie*. Her voice had been
described to us in such superlative terms that we were
prepared for disappointment but actually came away
amazed that one Individual had such a wide range in both
tone and volume and sang with such seemingly effortless
ease. Nor had we ever seen an Ann Arbor audience—usually
a bit on the “cold fish" aide—give anyartl&amp;t such an enthu­
siastic, standing ovation at the conclusion of a concert.
She merited every hand clap—and mare. Singer* of her
quality and personality do not often appear. She is as
dominant a personality and artist in this generation as the
great Enrico Caruso was in his.

Detailed coverage and comment by the Media was given
to the Vietnam Veterans who demonstrated against the
War. To the credit of these veterans, their demonstration
was as orderly and peaceful as street demonstrations of
this sort can be.

Dear Friends

*

We've been serving the Hastings area for almost two years
on heating and air conditioning, as noat people receiving
this letter already know.
Our jobs speak for themselves, and a lot of our business is
done because a satisfied customer has recommended us.

A letter was received from Westinghouse, our main line of
equipment, that offered something we thought you might like
to take advantage of, if you’re at all interested in air
conditioning your', home thia summer.

During the month of May, we will sell’you, for |100 (our
actual cost from Vestinghouse)» a Precipitron electronic air
cleaner, with any model Vestinghouse whole-house air
conditioner.
(This is normally a |35O to 4400 cleaner
installed).
How about getting a whole-house air conditioner this summer,
and stay home a few Sundays and relax in air conditioned comfort
instead of fighting your way through one of pur Michigan’s hot,
sticky warm spells, to the beach or-the golf course.
Also,
aarna's going to be happier, and all of you will sleep better...
••••and the Precipitron will out down on cleaning, dusting
and housework.
x

Just call 948-8244 and tell LaVon you’d like to see Be.
for taking the tine to read this letter.

For Benefit of Patients
In otecrvance of National Hospital Week, May 9

Fluke called attention to the contributions of the PennNook Gift Shop and Gift Cart
During the past few years, Penn-Nook Gift Shop and
Cart hare donated a total of &gt;14.067 in equipment to
Pennock Hospital. Of this, &gt;6,727 wus used for coronary
care equipment, such as heart monitors, pacemakers,

tric cribs and mattresses.
Volunteer Operation
The Penn-Nook Guild is a part of the Pennock Hos­
pital Auxiliary and is operated by volunteer members
of the guild who donate their time and services. The
Gift Shop has a reputation as one of the better hos­
pital gift shops in Michigan. Penn-Nook Gift Shop has

ary meetings in Traverse City and Grand Rapids.
Many decoupage items are made by members of the
Gift Shop Guild as well as attractive artificial floral ar­

*
Director Fluke, stated that “we are fortunate to teve
such an active organization and that their total con­
tribution of &gt;14,067 has helped Pennock to acquire much
needed equipment. Although the paUente benefit from
this equipment, they have not had to pay for it through
an increase in patient charges.”
The officers of the Gift Shop Guild are: Mn. Stu­
art Clement, Mrs. Roas Dunn, Mn. Stephen Johnson
and Mrs. Richard Cotter. Mrs. Larry Penrod is Gift Cart,
chairman, and Mn. Jack Green is assistant Gift Cart

Use Rocket
In Studies
Cta Tuesday, May 4. a group
of Hastings High School
Physics students sent aloft a
*nall rocket equipped with
a movie camera in its nose.
The two-stage rocket was
built from a kit by Bob Oc­
tant and Doug Relgler.
Each stage was powered by
a prepackaged solid explosive
propellant engine which de­
veloped a maximum thrust of
8 pounds and burned for 1%
seconds. Others partidpattav
in the project were Tom
Lewis, Terry Mlles and Mike
Nelsen.
The Idea of launching a
rocket tame about because it
seemed to be an to-al way to
put to use the things taught
in physics in a way that was
both unconventional and ex­
citing^
Data obtained from the
flight, such as angles meas­
ured between rocket and
ground, and the measurement
of object on the ground ap­
pearing fa the movie film can
be used to calculate thing*
like altitude and air resist­
ance.

Delton Soldier Gives Heart
To Vietnamese Orphans
A young Delton man's heart ha* gone out to the
plight of the children in Vietnam orphanage*
John "Rocf" McBain, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Mc­
Bain of 128 MUI Bl- Delton. Joined the Army in Sept­
ember 1969 and ha* been stationed in Vietnam since
September 1970.
He and acme of hl* buddies began spending Sun­
day* and time off duty visiting, reading and playing
with the children In a near-by orphanage at Duc-Pho.
The children enjoyed their company ao much even
though they couldn’t understand a thing they were lay­
ing that Rod decided tn try to do something more for
them.
He took it upon himself to write personal letters to

everyone he thought might be able to help get the "ball
rolling" so to speak. In a letter to Rev. Charles Fry,
director of missions for the West Michigan Conference,
iwadquarten of the United Methodist Church—of which
Rod wna an officer on the district council during his
high school days—he asked if "perhaps he could find a
little church which has been goofln off and try to stick
them with putting out a UtUe.”
“I know your already doing everything for everybody
and if your too busy it'a no big gig but anything you can
come up with will help." Rev. Pry in response photoco­
pied Rod’s letter and sent to four area churches explain­
ing that they had not been chosen because they were
goofln off. In repsonse the Delton church's MYP spon­
sored a supper and plan a car wash and bake sale in
the near future.
Rod also wrote a letter to Delton-Kellogg School and
the student council Ls sponsoring a book drive and sale
at the library. The cooks in the kitchens have sent two
boxes which Rod has received and sent back picture* of
the children playing with the toys.
Rod and his buddies are able to buy candy and gum
for the kids, however, ha writes that the children would
rather have bar soap than candy or even money. They
buy it at 10c a bar and toss it from the jeep as they drive
from one place Co another to the kid* along the street.
He writes that the orphanages are the cleanest places
he has seen in Vietnam. \
The children are well trained and he feels that the
people working with the children ore doing an outstand­
ing Job. However, they can use many material things
which we in the United States can send as they just
arenX available over there. There are both a, protests nt
and u catholic orphanage in Due Pho and many others
in between there and Cha-Lal.
As Rod is being moved around quite a bit and he
may be home before long—he asks that anyone in­
terested in helping may send articles such a* mentioned
to the fallowing address:
8-5 HQ 11 Inf. Bde 23rd Inf. Division
APO SF H2I7
The officers there will help see that the packages
reach their destination.
---------------- HB---------------.
Butter can be used as the shortening in plain pastry.
Use 1 cup plus two tablespoons of butter in place of
1 cup of shortening. Why? Because butter is only 80
percent fat and the crust would not be a* tender as
one made with another shortening.

On Sunday, May 2, 100 to 200 of Hastings* younger
citizens got together in Tyden Park. “Ma Hood** played
free music. Free food was provided through the gener­
ously of several young people. Kids danced, ate. and
had lots of fun. No one caused any trouble. We were
all brothers and sisters. And when ft was all over, every­
one helped pick up the litter tn the Park.
It is hoped the City will allow us to get together In
the Park every Sunday. But if the City's past record
of concern for its young people continues, we will again
be told that it is illegal for young people to have good,
clean fun.

One of America's leading environmental publications
—The Environment Monthly—has cited Consumers
Power Company ’for making environmental excellence
a basic condition In the pursuit of corporate goals.”
Magazine editor William Houseman said this na­

environmental statesmanship. "We hope and trust that
your performance will inspire other companies to emu­
late you,” Houseman concluded.
The April Issue lauds Consumers Power’s forestry
and riverland management, practices, and salutes the
company's efforts tn preparing and disseminating ma­
terial to promote public awareness of the need for con­
servation and care of the riverlands.

LIVESTOCK PRICES

Governor William G. Milliken has signed a procla­
mation designating May 16-23, 1971 as Soil Stewardship
Week in Michigan.
This is the 17th year that Boil Stewardship Week
will be observed Nation-wide. The theme. “The World
and they that dwell therein," makes us ask ourselves:
"How much longer will &lt;e live therein? What must
we do to make our stay here more pleasant? What must
we do to conserve the earth for our children? What are
we going to do about the complex environmental and
ecological problems of pollution of air and water, of over
crowding of people and noise, and the mental stress
these problems are causing?
••All of us must become more interested and involved
in solving these problems, if we want to go on breath­
ing and enjoying the.earth. We must all become ste-«
wards and accept the responsibility of safeguarding our
Environment.
“In the past we have done little except dilute our
waste and pile up our litter. Now we must start re-cy­
cling our waste and Utter into something usable.
'The Earth is all we have. It is a beautiful worldlet's enjoy it; let's conserve it for our children. Make it
more beautiful by planting trees and using other con­
servation practices.

�WAY BACK WHEN
BY H. D. BURPEE

You know you read the Barry Township History in
the Allegan and Barry History book and you find that
aH the first settlers attUed over around Hickory Cor­
ners. There la not a word as to who the first people
were that settled in the immedtoCe vicinity ot where
our fair vBtoge of Delton 1* located. I have wondered
about this for a long time and the other day an hour
or two In the State Library at Lansing gave me that
InformaUon. I copied thio Information off the micraflkn for the six sections that Delton practically centers.
These people would have to be the people that was fumtohtag the log school across from where Delton Hard­
ware now sets with pupils or scholars, whatever they
were called tack in those daya I know the log school
was in operation a little over 100 years ago right now.
I am sure thia Information will be ns Interesting to you
as it was to me.
In section 5, which would be east of the old railroad
bed out to RusseH Herbert’s place across the swamp,
and south from the Hope Township line to the Leon
Pennock property, the following people were the first
settlers: William P. Sidman in 1864. This, I am sure
was the Frank Doster farm. Alex Buell in 1854. John W.
Brock in 1870. Richard P. Hart in 1857. Elton Bolles in
1867. Josiah Hine in 1838, and Wm. P. Skiman took up
some more land in 1868.
In section 6 where we are at the moment from Prair­
ieville township east to the oid railroad bed and south
from the Hope Township line to the south line of the
Roy Smith place, the first settlers were Richard P.
Wiggins In 1836, Lawrence VanDeWalker in 1836, Wil­
liam H. Easton in 1837, John H. Booker In 1858 and
Lawrence Kendall in 1837.
Section 7 south of Section 6 from the old Roy Smith
place to a line about even with the south end of OU1espie Lake, the first settlers were as follows: Martin
Miner in 1838, Seth Dimick and Franklin Gage In 1850,
John Ortrander In 1848, Franklin Gage in 1860, Ursula
Barnes in 1837, Samuel Gilkey In 1837, William R. By­
ington In 1837, David R. Cook in 1870, Dorcas D. Oastrander In 1847, Mollie A. Linkhorn in1'1861, and Mary
C. Gage in 1864.
* *
Section 8, south from the north side of Leon Pen­
nocks farm to the junction of the Hickory Comers
road and the Pleasant Lake road near Glen Kenyon’s,
the following people settled: David Gilman in 1837,
Martin Miner tn 1836, Alexander Buell In 1840. Clarissa
Pennock In 1855, John B. Nichols in 1854, and John
Bnuggs in 1856.
In section 31 in Hope township from the Hope Barry
line just north of town here north to a line with the
south side of Jay Stevens' property the following set­
tled there: Hiram R. Merrill in 1854, Eliza Wood in
1854, Alex BueM in 1853, Calvin Brown in 1852, Charles
G. Lewis in 1848, Obadiah Titus in 1852, Martin C. Burge
In 1852 and 1855, Obadiah Titus tn 1851, Aruna Dake
in 1855, Daniel Actell in 1856 and Obedlah Titus in
1854, and Hiram Tillotson in 1848.
Section 32 of Hope 'I'ownship, which would take in
the south side of Wall Lake and up to Beechwood Point
and out 43 to the road going up to Jerry Reece's, was
settled by these people: Charles Wood in 1854, Giles
M. Shaw In 1839, Joel EL Johnson in 1837, Aruna Dake
in 1863, Alexander Buell in 1853, and Joel H. Johnson
in 1838.
Now I said these people were the first settlers. I
should not have said that. They were the first land
owners in these respective sections. As we all know, a
lot of people bought this land in the early days for
speculation and never saw the land.
One of the biggest mysteries that I have tried to
solve and something there does not seem to be any in­
formation on is the early stage coach lines. The old
Fred Kelly farm down near Hickory, where Stub Kelly,
lives now, was built for a stage coach stop, even to the
ban room, and to us today it would seem that it would
be just about the last place in the world one would ex­
pect to took for a stage line. You cannot find out where
thia stage was coming from or where It was going. Ac­
cording to Bill Younkin, out here at Floyd Johncock's
there Is another road going across the fields and through
the woods that they claim was an old stage road. When
I was in Lansing the other day at the State Archives,
where they have a world of information. I found some­
thing-that sort of adds up as far as this stage line is
concerned, but of course, no proof.
From a book entitled “Laws of Michigan, 1845" I
found the following:

Hastings does have a drug problem that reaches down
Into the 7th and 8th grades, and there are people working
to develop a plan which might help to reduce or elimi­
nate It, members of the Area Board of Education ack­
nowledged at their regular meeting held Tuesday, May
11, at Southeastern School.
Discussion of the drug problem came up after the
formal agenda was completed when a parent asked: T
would like to know how bad our drug situation is in our
junior high. I’ve talked to a lot of people but the talk
.is all vague?"
Dr. Charles Morrill, president of the school board,
declared that the question was very appropriate, and
added that he, other board members, staff and students
met for an Informal luncheon meeting that noon — as
they do each month.
Dr. Morrill said the problem, as with adults, includes
alcohol.
Board Vice President Robert Godfrey told about at­
tending drug programs and that, hopefully, an organ­
isation can be developed to deal with the situation. He
emphasized that young people feel the need of a "Drop
In Center," somewhat like the former "Open Door,” but
that there la not complete agreement concerning this
phase of the program. Possibly a coffee house is the
answer with professional help available.
He added that ministers and medical men seem to be
able to obtain a confidential relationship with the young
people that others do not have. There definitely seems
to be a need for something like a "Drop In Center."
Alfred Lowe reported that there has been no drug
abuse problem in the elementary grades.
Supt. Richard J. Guenther said one of the most
dramatic or serious drug incidents had occurred a week
or so before. High School Principal Robert VanderVeen
said acme students have had experiences with drugs, but
the talk is in generalities.
Assistant Chief of Police Robert Ritter Saturday, May
(5, said that as near as we can determine, we have a
minor drag problem In Hastings, primarily nyudjuana
and various pills.
;^As far as hard narcotics go, we have not turned up
one confirmed case, and very little if any hard narcotics
are being used in the Hastings arpa,” Assistant Chief
Ritter asserted.
"We do have the problem of young people obtaining
legal, prescription drugs illegally, or improperly using
them." Ritter added.
The school hews letter slated for distribution contains
a spread on drugs and drug abuse.
Assistant Chief Ritter said marijuana is available
and easy to get for those in the know.
Before the formal school board session began. Supt
Guenther acknowledged Al Franc Ik as the new Hastings
Education Association president. Arthur Steward Jr., who
served -two yean as HEA president, said he hoped to be
able to present the National Certificate of Merit recently
awarded the school board at the retirement party to be
held May 41 at the KC Hall.
Supt. Guenther reported that the district had 18
positions open and only five were posted. There were 68
applications for elementary jobs and a total of 220
sought teaching posts here.
The board authorised advertising for gas and oil bids
for next year, and approved the names of 257 seniors for
graduation.
Teachers hired included:
Mr*. Gretchen (Huebner) Peterson, for special educa­
tion (mantally handicapped) at Northeastern. She has
her BS from Western Michigan and is a 1966 HHS grad.
Paal Simon. 23, a Kalamazoo Loy-Norrix graduate
who has a B8 from WMU, for a junior high art post. He
did his student teaching here.
Mrs. Maxeene Pen cock for an elementary post at
Central. A native of Battle Creek, she has her BS from
Western.
David Wilcox, 23, who taught this past year at Plain­
well. was named for a special education (mentally handi­
capped) job in the high school. A 1966 HHS graduate,
he has his BS from Western.
Christine Taylor, a 1967 Grand Rapids Forest Hills
graduate, was hired as an elementary teacher at South­
eastern. She is a 1971 MSU graduate.
The board accepted the resignation of Mrs. Joyce
Ogata effective in June.
Supt. Guenther said the district now has a complete
special education program.

THRILLING-MOMENT —Sunday's balloon ascension was a highlight of the Centen­
nial picnic held at Charlton Park. Jumper Lea Groenke, 33, Grand "T*^. is lifted
swiftly and when the balloon reached about 2.303 feet, he parachuted, landing in a
high tree near M-79. Groenke, making his 10th jump from a balloon, had Ms chute
caught by a limb, which sounded as though it was breaking. He kept swinging
towards the trunk of the tree, and just as the limb brOke he managed te grab hold
and prevent a fall et about 30 feet. The balloon landed 50 yards away at Kermit
Stamm's. John Smith of Grand Rapids was ths fireman who filled the balteoa w+tb
hot air. It took two trie^— Banner photo.

-EDITORIAL************* Ay R. M. Q
The Centennial Ball was an outstanding success, not
only as a dancing party, but more especially as a com­
munity “mixer,” of which, we hope, there can be many
more of similar quality during the years ahead.
Everyone seemed delighted just to be there. Terpsichorean talent was not needed to enjoy a perfect evening.
Lovely old ccstumes were much In evidence—genuine period
pieces or elegantly fabricated copies of same. Whether one
danced to the excellent music or watched the colorful,
constantly changing scene from the sidelines or gallery,
there was never a dull moment.
•
•
•

We have one delightful memory of a central who pre­
sided over the old Prairieville Exchange. On tills occasion,
wc tried to get a call through, but received no answer, even
after prolonged ringing. Finally, just before we reached the
boiling point, we heard a feminine voice, obviously out of
breath, say words to the effect'that: "Hope you haven’t
been waiting long. The chickens got into my garden and
I had to go down and drive them out” This wasn’t an
apology but merely an explanation. In this conflict of
interests, so to speak, the garden came first because the
chickens could have done considerable damage — and.
actually, it did me no harm to wait for a few minutes to
get a call through.

When people In a community get together In a spirit
of friendliness and accord to wort on a mutually desirable
project, memorable things usually transpire. A pity it cant
happen more often. But, since people are people with a
tendency to fly apart over differences rather than search
for points of agreement, the interval between a reoccur­
rence of this Ideal state can be rather long.
•
•
•

Not for one minute would I wish to go bock to the old­
time telephone exchange whose many drawbacks and
annoyances are easy to forget when viewed through the
golden halo of the years. I am glad, however, that I came
on Die scene while the old-time centrals were still on the
job. Some of them were real personages who gave a personal
touch to the service that compensated, at least in part, for
some of Its drawbacks and crudities.

This entire Centennial Celebration (with several weeks
still to go) has been a great thing for Hastings. All of
which brings up the question, must we wait another hundred
years for a similar spirit to again prevail? Let us hope not.
There are certainly projects which could be found, worthy
of outstanding public interest and support. The problem,
I suppose, is to focus on one at a time and not dilute the
interest and the effort by attempting to cover too much
ground.
After all, such projects do not have to be of earthahattering importance. Anything that will tend to drww the
people of a community closer together is very much
worthwhile.

Whenever we pick up the rather impressive directory of
the Barry County Telephone Company, with headquarters
in Delton, we are amazed at the progress this former little
rural exchange has made. It is an unusual success story
that most of us have overlooked. Through good, progressive
management, several little rural exchanges have been com­
bined into a network whose efficiency and service will
compare with the best anywhere.
The local area covered. In addition to having dial serv­
ice, has direct dial service to Banfield, Battle Creek,
Hickory Comers, Kalamazoo, Plainwell and Richland.
Members in the Delton Area, for example can dial
directly to Pine Lake, Hickory Comers, Banfield, Kalama­
zoo and Richland. Pine Lake has direct dial connections to
Delton, Plainwell, and Kalamazoo. Subscribers on the Lacey
Exchange can dial directly to the Banfield and Battle
Creek Exchanges.
In accomplishing this task, the Barry County Telephone
management, did qualify for some substantial Federal
assistance. But the point is, they really came through by
making good use of the funds and brought to rural areas
"a type and quality of phone service that had never before
been available.
In retrospect, there was a quaintness and personality
about the old time rural exchanges with their party-line
service that will never again be duplicated—and thankfully
so; since exasperating and time-consuming situations could
so easily arise!

*

.

Remember the old party lines with as many as six or
eight (or was it ten) phones linked together on one loop.
The code for the various stations was a series of long and
short rings. Once a call came through, one could usually
hear the click of phones along the line being lifted off the
hook. This was "bugging" 0I4 style and made privacy
impossible. Also, the non-stop gossipers along the line,
frequently refused to cut a gabfest short to make way for
an emergency call. This, of course, did not promote har­
mony and good will within the neighborhood. More often
than not, there was a continual buzzing on the line that
sometimes became loud enough to make attempts at con­
versation unintelligible.
'
Despite all the shortcomings however, this service was
a real boon to households that had previously been Isolated.
Most of these little exchanges were informally organized
and subscribers in the area often contributed services
toanrd the upkeep and maintenance of the lines. Thus the
exchange had none of the characteristics of a distant and
separate corporation—almost everyone along the line had a
piurt In It.

A special salute to the "centrals” who presided over
these little rural exchanges. More often than not they knew
their communities thoroughly and could give a personal
type of service impassible to duplicate even by sophisticated
electronic gear.
We have especially happy memories of a former central
at Middleville. She seemed to know where everyone in the
village was at any hour of the day. A call put through for
a Mrs. X might bring the information that Mrs. X was
not home just then but could be reached at the home of
Mrs. Y where a social was in progress --and the switch
was made with practically no delay. Or a call put through
to Mr. Z might bring the information that he went to

To the Editor:
Certain members of the Michigan Legislature have
been unresponsive and irresponsible by failing after two
years of comprehensive snowmobile safety legislation.
Consider. There are 1.025 million snowmobllers in
the State who own and operate 204,000 snowmobiles
and spent, according to the Auto Club of Michigan,
$133 million this past Winter. Typically these snowmobilers are conscientious, tax-paying citizens. They are
not out to rape our environment. They want, contrary
to the belief of several lawmakers, legislation that pro­
tects the rights of others and natural resources from
the non-thinking minority of snowmobile™.
The Snowmobile Safety Act of 1968 Is currently the
—law. It is a stop-gap measure. In fact, registration fees
at $5 per snowmobile were imposed by this act in order
to generate funds for trail development and enforce­
ment. More than $1 million has been collected. NOT
ONE PENNY has been appropriated for trail develop­
ment.
This need for meaningful legislation, and the ear­
marking of some of the funds for orderly growth—as
compared to the whimsical, patch-work method which
results when attempts are myde to stretch insufficient
funds to do the Job required—has been recognized by at
least four organizations. They include Dr. Ron Duddles
of Beulah. Michigan International Snowmobile Associa­
tion; Larry Johnson of Madison Heights, Michigan Ma­
rine and Snowmobile Dealers Association; David Wolflel
of Saginaw, Michigan Ski-Doo Dealers Association; and
Todd Fulbright cf Rockford. Michigan Snowmobile Dist.
Association.
Two bills aie pending. SB-27 introduced by Sen. Bousma is obviously a straight money grab. He would double
the existing registration fee under the guise of building
and maintaining trails on public property. However, he
and his fellow authors of the bill will not make it man­
datory for any of the funds collected—which would be
more Dian $2 million—to be spent for that purpose. In
addition the bill is highly restrictive, for instance, any
person unloading a snowmobile fr:m its trailer along­
side a road could be in violation of the law and subject
to a fine. .
On the other hand, HB-4011 is a comprehensive, com­
mon-sense piece of snowmobile safety legislation that is
fair to snowmobllers and protects the rights of others
and Michigan's natural resources.
We urge interested citizens to. bombard his senator
and representative by phone, letter and wire. Make them
aware of your displeasure with their lack of action and
urge DEFEAT of SB-27, and urge that HB-4011 be
promptly amended to ensure funds for snowmobile en­
forcement and trail development ^pd subsequent pass­
age

It is time for us to address ourselves realistically to
the vital problem of American P. O. Ws in Vietnam.
Most of the 339 American prisoners of wur being held

simply be manufactured. On a purely economic basts, a
nilot is worth a thousand foot soldiers to those who
make the kind of war we are flghUng in Vietnam.
That’s why the POWs will not be released by North
Vietnam until the war is ended and the threat of re­
newed bombing of their country by the United states
is permanently lifted. No petitions, no threats, no bar­
gains will change that.
That's why. if we reaUy WBnt «&gt; ■* the POWs re­
leased, we are wasting our time signing petitions for any­
thing but ending the war.
How do we end the war? By ending it. By setting a
date unequivocally, for getting all our flghUng men and
machines out of Vietnam, and making it credible. By
thus making a cease-fire possible. By ending our sup­
port of the corrupt Saigon government, so that the Vletruuneee can choore one that will make peace.

Th«i sheltered workshop, until recently known
Lakewood Work-Activities Center, has outgrown
rented quarters and is in the process of raising money
to purchase and equip their own building in Lake-O.
Westover announced the urgency is because of
availability of federal funds on a matching basis to
be used to equip, staff and remodel facilities used in
vocational rehabilitation.
"In order to qualify for these matching funds," West­
over explained, "we must own our own building and
have local money or pledge* available by the mld-June
deadline of the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation.
These matching funds, available on a 90%-10% basis,
have been budgeted by the Federal government for
assisting sheltered workshop facilities in the state dyr-

The goal is to raise &gt;10,000 for the building and the

with Mra. Shirley J oppie. supervisor of the facility.
“A recent survey tn the trl-county area revealed 887
young people who should have access to this service to
that they may attain their fullest possible rehabilitation
and placement in competitive Industry," Westover added.
Our future plans include enlarging our facilities and

IDEA GinS for GRADS

Medicine changee with age
and becomes stronger or
weaker. So discard medi­
cine a doctor has pre­
scribed for a specific ill­
ness when it is no longer
needed. If you are in doubt
of a date we will be happy
to advise you. And, keep all
medicine In a locked cabi­
net for safety.

Four Water

50‘

In 1982, a Russian scientist by the name of N. N.
Fedyakin discovered a new form of water. This “new
water" or polywater as it is called, still is made up of
traditional hydrogen and oxygen, but it has some rather
unusual properties.
For instance, U is 15 times as dense as normal water,
and has a molecular
-----­ 10 times that of
that is
normal water. It is a
. ... with a vis: and syrupy,
cousity somewhere between that of molasses and heavy
engine oil.
Unfortunately, polywater can only be made in micro­
scopic amounts, which made it extremely difficult to
study. In fact some scientists seriously doubt that it
exists. They believe that ft Is only the result of con­
tamination of the apparatus used in making it.
Two advanced chemistry students from Hastings
High School, Jerry Reach and Mike Nelsen, have sue- .
ceeded in making a small amount of polywater. They
did it by sealing a bundle of glass capillary tubing in a
container so that they were suspended over distilled
water.
Some of the water evaporated and part ot the vapor
entered the capiMary tubing where it condensed. A small
amount of polywaler also formed in the tubing. When
the normal water was dried off, the polywater was left.
It can be seen only under a microscope. There are small
crystal-like structures in the polywaXer. The Hastings
High students have found that these structures have a
polarizing effect on light When a capillary is placed
between two polarizing niters and the filters are ro­
tated so as to exclude ail light passing through, the
crystals change the effect on the light and let it right'
through. This indicates a definite structure or ordering
to the atoms in the polywater molecules.

The 10* Insurance Test
It could mean hundreds
of dollars to you on
car and &gt; home insurance
' .

Call your insurance man. Right now.
Tell him you want to know how to file a claim
।____ _____ _

If he tells you to "Call or write the Claims De­
partment," you’re in trouble. That means he probably
works only as a salesman for an insurance company
and isn’t interested in you or your claim.
But if he says, "I’ll help you do it,” chances ape
you have an independent agent who displays tnfe
symbol below. It means he works for you. And repre­
sents you in dealing with the insurance company.

And that often represents the difference between
fast, fair payment of a claim and just—a payment.

Make the test. If your insurance man can't pass,
switch your insurance fast.

For Crown

by

Youngs
What should be one of the best West Central
Conference track and field meets is to get underway
at 5 p.m. this Wednesday on Lansing Waverly’s rub­
berized track, and Coach Larry Hilton’s Lakewood
thinclads should have a good chance of winning the
team crown in their last effort in the circuit.
Lakewood has some outstanding athletes, but so
has Waverly — which could well lake the tlUe —and
Charlotte and Grand Ledge.
Charlotte and Grand Ledge are strong In the middle
distances and could chew each other up.
Coach Hilton is banking on his fine hurdler. Bill.
Bowen, who was third in the 120 high barriers and third
in the 180 low sticks in Saturday's Class B Regional
tournament at Holt. Tom Carr, who was second in the
shot put at the Regional with a heave of 54 feet, 8
inches. Mike Norris, who has run a 102 century, and
miler Gary Richard are among the top Vikings. Char­
lotte's Jim Chenoweth beat Gary at Holt Saturday,
winning the mile in 4:17.4. Lakewood's Ken McArthur
was 5th in the two-mile run, following Gull Lake's Mike
Auglin.
Hastings High should make a good showing Wednes­
day. The Baxon 880 relay team of Chuck Heath, Bill
Burghdoff, Randy Selleck and Ted Fitzgerald won that
event in the Class B Regional at Holt in 1:35J. Tim
Clarey. Steve Barnum and John Barnes are good pole
vaulters and Dave Armour should pickup points in the
shot. Chuck Heath is counted on in the sprints and Ted
Fitzgerald in the 440. Grand Ledge's Mark Clark won the
880 run in Class A at Holt in 1:56.0.
Portland's Dick Coe won the 440 at Holt in 50.8 and
Koert Howland of Gull Lake was second and Wendxel
of Gull Lake tied for fourth.
In the Class B Regional at Lowell, Lowell was 8th
with 12 points and Caledonia 10th with 8. Dennis Kil-

inart took second in the shot for Caledonia and Mark
Durkee was second in the 440.

HHS Golf Coach Bob Carlson is singing the praises
of his improving Saxons, who finished 10th in a field
of 24 in the Class B Regional held at Saskatoon Friday.
Host Caledonia finished second, one stroke back of East
Christian's 337. Caledonia's linksmen were “off” their
game— Mike Leatherman shooting 87, Dan McKee 88,
Russ Reed 81 and Jeff Leatherman 82. East Christian,
Caledonia and Rogers qualified for the State B finals

NEUTRALITY OB?
Hare you ever heard of lhe Law ot Neutrality? Borne
people mlKakerUy call tt "keeplnx an opeo-mlnd." I can
agree with an open mind u long aa it la uxoppllabed
property. That la that the pro'. and oonV are thorough­
ly studied. examined and explored before you draw your
conclusion. Take the dalma of the Word of Ood, for Inatanoe. neutrality tames Its conclusion of the Word of
Ood on people, sppesranom. superficial circumstances
and Judges by what It wants to see or hear. On the
other hand, the dalma of the Wont of Ood. when stu­
died objectively and open-mlndedly will support them­
selves and are evidenced by the fact of faith in a chang­
ed life.
I wood* sometimes If neutrality Is really not a way
&lt;rf saying. “I don't want to matte a decision about IL I'd
rath* Ignore IL" Neutrality does not call for action. It
does not ask for commitment. It la a terrific excuse
I don't claim that everyone living by faith and claim­
ing the principle. of ths Word « Ood is perfect. I don't
suggest that M hours of the day they do absolutely
nothing ami*. But then the Word of Ood does not
claim this either. Ood says, whether we believe It or not
does not change His facta, that we are sb sinners.
Romans 3:33; "For all have sinned and come short of
the glory of Ood." It also says that we cannot save our­
selves Ephesians 3:3-3. "For by grace are you saved,
through FAITH; and that not of yourselves: It la the

gift of Ood." OotTS gift was His Bon. U we ware to ba*
all Christianity on people, their lives, what they do &lt;r
do not do. then why did Ood give Jesus? Why would
His resurrection be so Important? It io the picture of
the rc-vUallatng that comas as we piece ourselves by
faith Into Ood. control. Thia fact, that He la atlll alive,
opens to us the door of confession and f orglveneaa ot
slru. To accept Him ia to bo free from the gripping
power of sin on our Uvea.
The "Agnostics- claim that -you Just cannot know.'
In oth* words. "Your gums la m good M mlns." The
Word of Ood says, I John 3:13a. -Thaao things han I
written unto you that believe on the name of the Son
of Ood. that ye may KNOW that ye have eternal Me.
. . ." Romans 1:11 "The Spirit itself, Peered wltnwa
with our spirit, that we are the children of Ood."
I submit to you that living by the law of neutrality
is to be guessing about what you could know as Truth.
U la to me Ood and HU Word only tn the light of one­
sided intellect and prejudice. I John 3:10a states. “Ho
that boueveth on the Bon of Ood hath the witness In
himself. . . ”
So long as you choose to stay neutral, to guess, to
refuae to commit yourself, you cut your own self off
from God and all the inner peace and completion that
He longs to give to you Why not take HU Word and be­
gin objectively to see if there is really something to it?
“And ye ahab know the Truth, and the Truth shall
make you-free." John 8:82. _

Pramltol* liquid gets rid of
weeds where you don't want
them. In fences. And around

knocking out weeds where
you can’t mow.
Pramltol liquid works like a

weeds down all season.
Try Pramltol 25E liquid. You'll
find all kinds of uses for It.
Or. If you prefer, use easy to

To the explorer one of the most useful tools of the
buriness is a mass of squlgley lines on a special map
called a "Tope" map—short for Topographical Map pub­
lished by the U. 8. Geological Survey. It takes several
of these government masterpieces to cover the county
completely and on them you might even find your house,
an old cemetery, a little known spring, back country
trails, hills and valleyr and of course roads and streams.
From It you could find the elevation of your back yard
above sea level if you have a good magnifying glass.
These maps are very useful to land developers, drain
commissioners, road builders and many others interes­
ted in land use. They can also help you build a three
dimensional land model of your farm of favorite resort
area. I Just wonder how many people in Barry County
have discovered the pleasure of collecting and working
with maps. There are many things the government does
not put on the maps that one can fU! in from personal
observation so they don't take all the fun out of explor­
ing.
•
An even more exciting tool to the explorer is the
Air Photo maps that are available through your Soil
District Office. These can even be secured in Stereo
pairs and by using a special viewer you are suddenly
seeing the world in three dimensions as the hills and
valleys and even trees and homes seem to pop up be- x
fore your eyes. This In some ways Is clearer than view­
ing from the air In a plane. It is also possible to secure
greatly enlarged copies of these maps but they are much
more expensive and delivery Is slow.
By using an opaque projector I have been experi­
menting with greatly enlarged topo maps with the hope
that I can make Interesting maps to share with others
some of the choice exploring spots in western Barry
County hill country where I live. Are there others in
the reading audience who would like to share the fine
hobby of maps? Maybe some of the Boy Scout map
graduates have learned the fun they can have with maps.

ture in Winter while in Bummer the scorching sun beat­
ing down on bare, hot sidewalks drives customers away.
The Strand Theater, The National Bank and Walldorff's
plantings add much to the appearance of the street.
This bleakness could be changed if there is the spirit,
the will, the vision and the AMBITION to do it, plus
the appreciation of the buying public.

The most important one thing to the need for TREES,
TREES, TREES! Many small towns have three to five
trees planted at well established Intervals in each busi­

Last month I brought up the history of this section,
to the best of my ability, to the establishment of the
flrat Postoffice here In Delton in 1877.
A letter from Ken Priestley, the Michigan Postal His­
torian of Vassar, Michigan gives all the postmasters in
the past right up to our present Ed Knim.
POflTOFFICE, DELTON. BARRY COUNTY. MICHIGAN
Established May 23, 1877. Adelbert E. Monroe, first
postmaster; James R. Bush, Dec. 10, 1870; James F.
Norwood. May 18, 1880; John F. Williams, Nov. IB, 1883;
Henry Arbour, Oct. 20, 1887; Franklin G. Adams, April
17, 1002; Fred G. Green, Aug. 5. 1008; Roy B. Gaskill,
Sept. 28, 1014; Gladys E. Gaskill, Nov. 18, 1022; George
Leonard, July 0, 1940.
Roger Williams, put in as acting postmaster, March
30, 1057. Edward Kniss appointed acting Postmaster,
March 18, 1061, and appointed Postmaster, July 10, 1061.
In my first "Fresh Out of the Attic** column, Nov. 23,
1061 In The Hastings Banner. I disclosed the fact that
before Delton was ever thought of, there was a log
school setting on the site of Bob Weaver's market today.
I saw the report of this log school at the State Arch­
ives in Lansing last Foil. It was the Annual Report of
the School Inspectors of the Township of Barry to the
County Clerk for the year 1861. J. W. Burson, Hickory
Comers, was the Director of Fractional District num­
ber 4. Number of children attending school-30. Number
of months of school-7. Received for tuition of non resi­
dent pupils-83 J7. Amount raised by rate bill-832.53.
Amount of public money received by each district, in­
cluding two mill tax-829.72. Fund for building and repair­
ing school houses-87 00. Total amount of taxes raised by
each District-83.00. Number of qualified teachers em­
ployed in each District-Two females. Amount of wages
paid to leechers for the seven months-863JS.
X also found out that this log school was a leased
school, evidently built by Thomas Blackman on the cor­
ner of hisfarm and leased to the District.
Just a few years after the year 1861, the map In the

Archives showed the school* just” south of the log school,
which I am sure was the present home of the Huh fam­
ily.
From an old “Hastings Journal" of Thursday, Dec.
4, 1890. I found the two following items In the Delton
News:
"On account, of moving the stove from the old school
house to the new one. Church services were held in
Blackman's Hall Sunday. A large crowd was In atten­
dance.**
“The new school house will be completed this week,
which makes all Delton rejoice.’1
This would have been when they moved from the
Hull place to the school that set. where the Wlsnewskl's
home is now located. The school where I along with a lot
of others around here got our schooling. We could get 10
grades then and had to go to Hastings or other places
for the 11th and 12th grades. I remember all my teach­
ers very well. My first teacher was Miss Waddell (Mrs.
Herbert Morehouse of PlalnweM of whom I saw for the
first time a few years ago since my school days. Miss
Johnson was my second grade teacher, Lula Nobles, later
Lula Wertman, was my third grade teacher, Miss Gould,
my fourth grade. Myrtle Smith, now deceased, my fifth
grade, and Albert Hauer, now deceased, my 6th, 7th,
8th and 9th grades and Carl Boyes, also deceased, was
my 10th' grade teacher. I guess we all know that our
first Consolidated school here on the present grounds
was opened the first of October In 1936. From the log
school in 1861 to this magnificent building we now have,
what could they possibly have here In another 50 or
100 years?
From a Hastings Banner dated May 28, 1942, which
Fem Norwood brought me at the meeting two months
ago, this article written by ML L. Cook sheds a lot of
light on early Delton. The article was written up as
follows.
C. K. &amp; 8. AND THE NEAR-BY RESORT LAKES
GAVE DELTON ITS START.
When I first saw the place all there was to Delton
was Frank Norwood's store, the downstairs portion be­
ing used for ills stock, and the upstairs for the family
residence. AM there was to Indicate that a village might
locate there some day was that store and the roadbed
of the Kalamazoo, Hastings, Lowell &amp; Northern Mich­
igan Rail Road, which was projected as a narrow gauge
line. After the grading had been nearly completed to
Lowell, all wort on it ceased, do doubt because the de­
pression, which began in 1873 and continued for seve­
ral years, made it impossible to raise the money for its
completion In the meantime it had become evident that
a narrow gauge line could not be profitably operated,
because all freight would have to be unloaded at junc­
tion points, then reloaded onto standard gauge cars,
which would add too much to the coat of transportation.
I recall that Mr. Norwood was confident the road would
be built, and lived to see his belief vindicated.

Chalk up another success for the Centennial Program.
It)is time for the picnic at Charlton Park, complete with
an old-fashioned balloon ascension and a beard judging
contest. It was a family and not strictly a Hastings event
’ since people came from all parts of the county—several
thousand of them. In fact. Estimates ran from “more than
two thousand.** to about “five thousand.” With the crowd
scattered over a wide area and moving about from place
to place, an accurate tally could not be made.

(This Banner column will be devoted to articles and
editorials written by students or teenagers — even
those 20 years old — who have something to say and
want someone to read what they say. The Banner
invites young people from all sections o/ Barry Coun­
ty to contribute essays, editorials, stories or articles.
We need names and addresses, too.)

About 350 adult tickets were sold during the day for
entry Into the museum, although the total traffic was
considerably more than this, since families with children
were admitted on one ticket—and, when It comes to enjoy­
Ing a museum, children are just as important “people"
as their elders.

By Mart Andrews
Maple Valley High Scheel

The displays in the museum are excellently arranged—
informative and interesting—a real professional job. It is
the policy, as we understand it, to change the displays from
time to time, since the items now being used constitute
but a small fraction of the total material available.
Irving Charlton was a real collector who understood the
significance and value of the Items he assembled. He was
ahead of his time and only now are people beginning to
comprehend the amount of “local history" In the form
of significant artifacts that he saved from the junk pile
—items that will increase In value and significance as the
years pass by.

Voice of the People
(The Banner welcomes Letters to the Editor. It
is respectfully requested that they not exceed a
maximum of 300 words, that they comply with
the standards of good taste and that they be on
public questions or general subjects. Letters must
be signed' and the address of the writer given but
names will be withheld on request. The Editor
reserves the right to edit the missives.)

In addition to the museum Items, there is a vast store
of heavy machinery dating back to the past century which
eventually will be used.
A salute to the "Brothers of the Brush” who were good
sports enough to take part in the public beard judging
contest. Who won or who lost was really not important
since the entire event was just a bit of fun that everyone
seemed to enjoy. There were some really luxuriant growths
on display in the various categories.
Our guess is that more than ‘‘Just a few** of them are
looking forward to June 5, after which one can "come
dean” again without tempting the wrath of “the terrible
Keystone Cops.”
.

So far, the Centennial has been a lot of fun and more
interesting events are In the offing.
To those of us who are beyond the slxty-year mark, or
crowding same, the balloon ascension brought back nos­
talgic memories. Such events were key attractions at
county fairs, until the advent of the airplane which quickly
made balloon ascensions passe. But now, with airplanes
of all sizes and types so common—one can see them every
day flying overhead—the old hot air balloon with the
"pilot” suspended on a trapeze below the inflated bag is a
real curiosity.
It has always seemed to us that a guy has to be some­
what of a dedicated daredevil to ride one of those hot air
bags up off the ground—the original “man on the flying
trapeze," so to speak. Once off the ground, there is no
control and one is at the mercy of currents of air that can
toss the balloon about in a none too gentle manner—
as actually happened Sunday.

Ta the Editor:
This to in response to several letters appearing ini The
Banner In recent weeks, which have been asked what
happened to the coffeehouse or what's being done to pro­
vide a youth center In Hastings.
A couple months ago we organised a group of persons
who represent seven of our local churches, for the pur­
pose of opening a drop-in center in Hastings for young
people. This group has met several times and is current­
ly working on four facets for this center: location, fi­
nances, legal status and format and purpose. We are
making progress tn all four areas.
Our purpose is to be two-fold: to provide a place to
go for rapping, eating, recreating, etc., and to provide a
place for help and counseling for problems of any variety.
We plan to have Information on drug abuse available
plus persons qualified to deal with crisis situations.
We can always use more help. Anyone wishing to join
us in planning and working toward this goal is welcome:

An ascension of this sort to in the same pattern of one
engineered by the Montgolfier brothers, Jacques Etienne
and Joseph Michel, who In 1783 sent aloft an ornate, hot
air balloon carrying a sheep, a rooster and a inmh as
passengers. Without benefit of parachute, the three animals
rode with the craft as it lifted to about 1,500 feet and then
settled safely to earth as the heated air gradually cooled.

There were no serious injuries. Today, the hot air balloonist
could ride out an ascension in a similar manner, but the
parachute has been added for an extra thrill.
Unknowingly, the Montgolfier brothers were the advance
agents of the space age. They were the flrat to devise a
practical method whereby man could cut loose from his
earth-bound environment and soar with the birds—&lt; mild
but historic step Into the atmosphere.

Congratulations to William (Bill) BchUhaneck for his
elevation to the presidency of the International Wally
Byam Caravan Cluh- This organization that Bill How
heads to probably the\besi jnanaged and most responsible
group of Ita kind in the world. Every rally they hold comes
as the result of good advance planning- nnd those who are

members in good standing can really get to see the world
and meet interesting and unusual groups of people. Many
Hastings people remember Bill and the active part he took
in community affairs while he was in business here. We
congratulate the International Wally Byam Caravan Club
for recognizing Bill's worth and putting him where he
belongs—right at the top.

THE HASTINGS BANNER—Wednesday, May 26, 1971

To the Editor:
To your boost of Delton you couM have added—25
or 30 lucrative stores and business. Truthfully how­
ever, many of them have much to be desired appear­
ance-wise.
’
Your last line "plenty of land available to build on,
away from the trouble that to within the large cities’*
sounds great, but—
Who wants to build -near a potential disaster area?
Delton—a leech feeding upon itself A health hazard.
No water system- No sewer system. Poorly lighted. Few
sidewalks. No curbs and gutters. No paved streets except
county and state roads. No off-street parking (it must
be the only town in Michigan that DOUBLE PARKS
on a state trunk line.) No police, and the roughest, row­
diest reputation in the area.
Delton must be cue of the oldest unincorporated com­
munities in the country. Why don't they incorporate and
justify their existence? Because they've been brain­
washed into “not calling attention to themselves.” The
town bosses don’t live In town, and they know they
couldnt hold town offices.
The town exMs because it is among Barry's Beautlbut it could flourish and offer much to the
county, and much, much more to it's own citizens.

Uke moat of the past civUlaaUons, the American ra­
tion In which you and I live la Mowty deteriorating be­
cause of the pvsamre put on It by Ua Inhabitanta and
other naUona
Not only U some sort of war going on at all times,
be It domestic or foreign, but the people are losing
faith In their leaden. Take a look at the Roman Em­
pire for Instance. Before Ua downfall the prices on food
and goods rose, trade declined and the people refused
to support a large army.
Now look at our situation today and you will see
that they are surprlMngly similar. We as Amertaans
dUsens, are In financial tnxMe, witnessing rising
prices, and are speaking out against stxh a large army
and spendings. The people ot the United States are
losing faith in their leaders and are showing their unhapplness through often violent riots. Could It be that
the American people themselves could bring about the
downfall at our nation?
Let’s hope that the United States doesn't end up
Uke the Roman Empire and fall Into the hands of our
enemies never to reign as a free nation again.

Chalk up another success for the Centennial Program.
Thia time for the picnic at Chariton Park, complete with
an old-fashioned balloon ascension and a beard judging
contest. It was a family and not strictly a Hastings event
’ since people came from all parts of the county—several
thousand of them, in fact. Estimates ran from “more than
two thousand." to about "five thousand." With the crowd
scattered over/a wide area and moving about from place

to place, an accurate tally could not be made.
•
•
•
About 850 adult tickets were sold during the day for
entry into the museum, although the total traffic was
considerably more than this, since famines with children

&gt; J

were admitted on one ticket—and. when it comes to enjoy­
ing a museum, children are just as important “people"

as their elders
•

•

•

The displays in the museum are excellently arranged—
informative and interesting—a real professional job. It is
the policy, as we understand it, to change the displays from
time to time, since the items now being used constitute
but a small fraction of the total material available.
Irving Chariton was a real collector who understood the
significance and value of the items he assembled. He was
ahead of his time and only now are people beginning to
comprehend the amount of "local history" in the form
of significant artifacts that he saved from the junk pile
—items that will increase In value and significance as the

(The Banner welcomes Letters to the Editor. It
is respectfully requested that they not exceed a

the standards of good taste and that they be on
public questions or general subjects. Letters must

reserves the right to edit the missives.)

In addition to the museum items, there is a vast store
of heavy machinery dating back to the post century which
eventually will be used.

A salute to the “Brothen of the Brush" who were good
sports enough to take part in the public beard judging
contest. Who won or who lost was really not important
since the entire event was just a bit of fun that everyone
seemed to enjoy. There were some really luxuriant growths
on display in the various categories.
Our guess is that more than "just a few" of them are
looking forward to June 5, after which one can “come
dean" again without tempting the wrath of “the terrible
Keystone Cope."
•

80 far, the Centennial has been a lot of fun and more
interesting events are in the offing.
Tto those of us who are. beyond the sixty-year mark, or
crowding same, the balloon ascension brought back nos­
talgic memories. Such events were key attractions at
county fairs, until the advent of the airplane which quickly
made balloon ascensions passe. But now, with airplanes
of all sixes and types so common—one can see them every
day flying overhead—the old hot air balloon with the
"pilot" suspended on a trapeze below the inflated bag is a
real curiosity.
It has always ‘seemed to us that a guy has to be some­
what of a dedicated daredevil to ride one of those hot air
bags up off the ground—the original "man on the flying
trapeze,” so to speak. Once off the ground, there is no
control and one la at the mercy of currents of air that can
toss the balloon about in a none too gentle manner—
as actually happened Sunday.
•
•
•
An ascension of this sort is in the same pattern of one
engineered by the Montgolfier brothers, Jacques Etienne
and Joseph Michel, who in 1721 sent aloft an ornate, hot
air balloon carrying a sheep, a rooster and a lamb as
passengers. without benefit of parachute, the three animals
rode with the craft as it lifted to about 1500 feet and then
settled safely to earth as the heated air gradually cooled.
There were no serious injuries. Today, the hot air balloonist
could ride out an ascension tn a similar manner, but the

Unknowingly, the Montgolfier brothers were the advance
agents of the space age. They were the first to devise a
practical method whereby man could cut loose from his
earth-bound environment and soar with the birds—* mild
but historic step into the' atmosphere.

Congratulations to William (Bill) Schllhaneck for his
elevation to the presidency of the International Wally
Byam Caravan Club. This organisation that BID now
heads is probably the best managed and most responsible
group of its kind in the world. Every rally they hold comes
as the result of good advance planning wryi those who are
members in good standing can really get to see the world
and meet interesting and unusual groups of people. Many
Hastings people remember BUI and the active part te took

To the Efitter:
Thia te in response to several letters appearing in The
Banner In recent weirs, which bare been asked wtet
happened to the coffeehouse or what's being done to pro­
ride a youth center in Hastings
A couple months ago we organized a group of persona
who represent seven of our focal churches, for the pur­
pose of opening a drop-in center in Hastings for young
people. Thia group has met several times and is current­
ly working on four facets for this center: location, fi­
nances, legal status and format and purpose. We are
making progress in all four areas.
Our purpose fas to be two-fold: to provide a place to
go for rapping, eating, recreating, etc., and to provide a
ptace for help and counseling for problems of any variety.
We plan to have information on drug abuse available
plus persons qualified to deal with crisis situations.
We can always use more help. Anyone wishing to Join
us In planning and working toward this goal is welcome:
young adult or adult not so young. Give me a call.

THE HASTINGS BANNER—Wednesday, May 28. 1971

By Mark Andrews

Maple Valley High School
Like most of the past civilizations, the American na­
tion in which you and I live is slowly deteriorating be­
cause of Che pressure put on it by its inhabitants and
other nations.
Not only is some sort of war going on at all times,
be it domestic or foreign, but the people are losing
faith in their leaders. Take a took at Che Roman Em­
pire for instance. Before its downfall Che prices on food
and goods rose, trade declined and the people refused
to support a large army.
Now took at our ritttatlon today and you will see
that they are surprisingly similar. We as Americans
clttzew, are In financial trouble, witnearing rising
prices, and are speaking out against such a large army
and spendings. The people of the United States are
losing faith in their leaders and are showing their un­
happiness through often violent riots. Could It be that
the American people themstives could bring about the
downfall of our nation?
Let's hope that the United States doesn’t end up
like the Roman Empire and fall into the hands of our
enemies never to reign as a free nation again.

graduate on May 28th will be Stephen F. Johnson, son
of Mr. and Mrs. Stephen I. Johnson, Hastings, and Vin­
cent La Porte, son of Mr. and Mrs. Dominic La Porte of
Dearborn. Mr. La Porte is the husband of Ann Becker,
daughter of the Homer Beckers of Hastings.
All of the graduates had the opportunity to request
the location of their internships and both Steve and
Vlnce, along with 86% of the class, were given their
first choice.
Dr. Bteve Johnson will intern in Albuquerque, N. Mex„
and Dr. Vince La Porte will intern in St. Paul, Minn. [He
and Ann have already visited in St. Paul and their host
was. Dr. Al Belslto, former Hastings resident They were
delighted to meet Al and liked everything they saw.]
Ann will be much nearer her sister, Mary Jane and
family, at Pella, Iowa.
A tradition has developed over the years for these
medical students when they are told of the location of
their internships. The following excerpt from the Detroit
Free Press, with the heading, “New Medics Celebrate,"
will probably best describe this annual ritual.
ANN ARBOR —Four long grueling years of Intense
study for 202 University of Michigan medical students
ended Monday afternoon in Bimbo's beer-and-ptaa
There the tense seniors held on to mugs of beer as
Dr. Robert Green, medical school associate dean, took a
puff on his cigar, tore open an envelope, and read the
fate of another graduate:
"Queens Hospital, Hawaii!"
The students responded with whoops and hollers that
would make the audience on "Let's Make A Deal" look
tame by comparison. Another graduate had been com­
puter-matched with a hospital and Hawaii was definitely
a popular choice.
The students gathered with thetr mates and sweet­
hearts at Bimbo's — an off-campus Ann Arbor meeting
spot—to hear the results of the National Intern and
Resident Matching Program, a system that unites them
and the hospitals in which they will serve after their
May 28 graduation.
The seniors turn in a list early in the school year,
ranking the hospitals across the country by choice. The
hospitals, in turn, rank and pick the students. Then the
computer makes the connections.
Postscripts: ------ Bimbo's is the place where Denny
Huntley played during his years In U. of M. Law School
and also Dr. Don Frost while in Medical School.
---------------- HB---------------Remember poppy days May 27-28-29 and help with
the distribution of poppies some time during three days.
Upon the success of poppy days depends our ability to
help veterans and their dependent ones. Wear your
poppy proudly on Memorial Day.

�STREAM IMPROVEMENT — John Schrouder of
Plainwell, fish biologist with the Plainwell Division of
the Department of Natural Resources, poors Rotenone
into a 55 ration drum as the project to rid a large
portion of the Coldwater River of chubs, shiners and
sackers, and other rough fish, got underway Friday,
May 14. The Rotenone prevents the functioning of a
fish's gills, killing them. It doesn't hurt mammals.
DNR experts set up 25 "drip" stations, including seven
on each of Tyler and Duck Creeks, major tributaries,
and about 179 gallons of the chemical were used. The
Coldwater, whleh empties into the Thornapple at
Whltneyvjlle, this week was to be stocked with 30,H0
three and four inch Brown trout. The water tempera­
ture, 57 degrees Friday, to cold enough to support
trout all year, Schrouder said. Experts hope that by
Fall, the Browns will be able to maintain the balance
and "hold their own" when rough fish reenter this
cleaned section of the Coldwater. The river originates

The West Central Conference track and field meet
held on Lansing Waverly's fine rubberized oval Wed­
nesday evening, May 19. was a real thriller with
Waverly taking the team victory with 58J4 points.
Grand Ledge was second with 45 and Lakewood was
a strung third witfi 39., Charlotte hart 25, Alma 24%,
HAsting&amp; J$,rSL Johns ,13 and Ionia had one point.
•

'chgnbtte, with, a great dual record, shares the 1971
conference crown with Waverly.
Lakewood's Bill Bowen was the outstanding performer
of the day, winning first place honors in the low and
high hurdles and winning the high jump clearing 5 feet,
8 inches.
Four conference records were established. Lakewood's
powerful shot putter Tom Carr, hurled the 12 pound
weight 55 feet. 4 inches, breaking the 55-3’- mark set
by Joe Auffrey of Ionia In 1965.
Craig Crowe of Grand Ledge set a new 440 standard

Bill Bytwork of Charlotte shattered the two mile
record of 10:00.2 set by last year's teammate Bill Cheno­
weth. Bytwork's new record is 9:42.8.
Grand Ledge's mile relay team set a new mark of
3:28.8. The Ledgers' set the old record of 3:30.06 in 1970.
Nearly all the events were great. Jim Chenoweth of
Charlotte won the mile handily, but the battle for second
was something else with Lakewood's Gary Richard nos­
ing out Mike Rademacher of Alma.
Hastings' Dave Armour and Paul Pierson took second
and third in the shot put and Tim Clarey fell a quarter­
inch short of tying the school pole vault record. Tim
cleared what was thought to be 12 feet, but when the
bar was measured it was only at 11 feet, 11% inches.
Adam Beduhn's record is 11 feet, ll’i inches. Steve
Barnum took fifth in the pole vault.
Chuck Heath picked up two points taking fourth in

Wednesday, May 26. beginning at 7 pm. in the Lake­
wood High School auditorium, there will be a second
workshop for the community on drug use and abuse. The
f^rt. meeting was attended by approximately 150 perThe meeting will incorporate many of the topics re­
quested by the parents who attended the ftret session,
particularly the bringing of children to the program. The
main attraction for the evening will be the appearance
of two representatives from the Teen Challenge program
in Detroit. This is a branch of the Teen Challenge pro-*
gram originated in New York by David Wllkenson. Rev.
Wilkerson is the author of the book, 'The Cross and the
Switchblade." The use of religion as a means of saving
young adults from a life of torment due to (hug addi­
ction has proven to be very successful. This part of the
program should be extremely interesting and worth­
while..
Other parts of the program win include a discusricn
of harmful drugs both in the home and on the street;
a student panel; the fimarteen’s Drug Prevention Pro­
gram; and a talk on what problems are common for a
teenager today.
The program will seek to provide further information
for Che parent to me in dealing with problems as they
relate to drug abuse. Whether or not any further meet­
ings are held this school year will depend on the par­
ticipants. This meeting is for aU area adults and chil­
dren in grades 6-12 may be brought to the program and
are encouraged to participate in the sessions.

HOPE CHURCH OF THE BRETHREN
Hope Church of the Brethren located on M-50 be­
tween the Freeport and Hastings Roads is a relatively
new congregation worshiping in a modem edifice.
However, the roots of the membership reach back into
the middle of the last century when members of the
denomination began migrating from
Pennsylvania.
Ohio, and other southeastern areas to Eaton, Barry.
Ionia and Kent counties in Michigan.
At first, these scattered members of the Church of
the Brethren met in each others' homes or in neigh­
borhood schools for worship services. As more Breth­
ren established homes In the area. It became advisable
to build permanent houses of worship. About 1867. the
Thornapple Church was organised and its first House
of Worship was built on the line between Barry and
Ionia Counties.
From this initial venture, two congregations were
eventually established. One church became known as
the Elmdale Church since it was located about a mile
s^uty pfr, EUpdgl^. and the. other one which stood two
and one-half miles south and a mile east of Clarks­
ville retained the name of Thornapple Church.
In 1951, Robert E. Martin, of Indiana, was called to
serve the two congregations as full-time pastor. Theh
one bleak day in February, 1953, the Elmdale Church
was destroyed by fire and that congregation was in­
vited to worship with the Thomapple Church. Facili­
ties tljere were too small to accommodate the combined
congregations, so after much prayer and consideration
it was decided that the two groups would merge and
construct a new building between the two original lo­
cations. Brother Martin continued to serve as pastor
of the merged congregation which would be known*as
the Hope Church of the Brethren, its denomination be­
ing one of the three historical peace churches along
with the Friends (Quakers) and Mennonltes.
Brother and Sister Stephen Weaver donated a plot
of ground from their farm in Kent County just west of
the Ionia County line and nocth of M-50 for the
new church. Later “the entire farm was purchased by
the church. On April 17, 1954. ground was broken and
the work of construction was begun.
’The congregation continued to worship in the Thorn­
apple Church during this period until Jan. 22, 1965
when fire damaged that building. The next day the
members held their Sunday morning worship service In
the basement of the uncompleted structure. The new
sanctury was used for the first time tar the Easter
Sunrise service, April 10. Dedication services were held
May U. 14, 15. 1S55, with Dr. V. F. Schwalm, praldent then of Manchester College at North Manchester.
Indiana as the dedicatory speaker.
Since that time Hope Church has developed under
the leadership of Bros. Martin, Rommey Moore. Con­
rad Snavely, and the present pastor, Arthur Heisler.
On Subday mornings adult worship is held in the
aanotaafy and’junior worship in the basement. During
the study hour. 11 groups of people meet in the various
rooms of the church in searchings to deepen their
spiritual lires.
.
,?
The church now has a membership pf about 125
persons. It holds regular sendceT each Sunday morn­
ing. The Women's Fellowship meets the second and
fourth Tuesdays at each month for a day of needle­
work, dinner, fellowship, and worship. The men care
for the farm and meet occasionally for a fellowship
breakfast The three adult Sunday School rlaww have
regular monthly meetings and sponsor a variety of
community and church projects. Bible study and prayer
services aye held each Thursday evening 7:30. The
church is cooperating with the Freeport United Metho­
dist Church fa a' Daily Vacation Church School sched­
uled for August and works actively with the Kent
County Council of Churches, as well as the denomi­
national district and national programs of various
youth, home and foreign mission endeavors. Hope
Church welcomes ah people of the community to Ks
services who do not have local church homes.

their lives, their health, or their livelihood as a result of
their military service are rightly the concern of all citi­

those unfortunate persons who have paid more than
their share of the cost of freedom: and

by disabled veterans, and the proceeds of this worthy
fund-raising campaign are used exclusively for the bene­
fit of disabled and needy veterans, and the widows and

the Dead by Helping the Living”; therefore
I. Franklin C. Beckwith, Mayor of the City at Has­
tings do hereby urge the citizens of this community to

If you were to pin point the pivot of a drawing
compass on the state land on the scenic Glass Creek
Valley headwaters in Barry County and set the scribing
pencil to mart a 50 mile radius (about an hour's driving
time) you would find yourself encompassing most of the
population centers of Southwestern Michigan.
We as citizens of Barry County should seriously be­
gin to take stock of the geographical responsibility that
we have by virtue of our living here. Each year more
and more tens of thousands of people are not only com­
ing here from these nearby population centers but from
far away states as wen.
The temptation is to exploit our natural resources
for the tourist dollar and indeed more and more of our
economy may depend on this source of revenue but we
have a greater responsibility to provide a community
understanding and atmosphere which will temper the
harsh city culture and hopefully give the refugees from
the city stresses a chance to gain an appreciation for the
resources of nature that will feed them now meaning
and purpose for life.
It is my hope that this column will not only be a
means of identifying these resources we have in Barry
County but be an instrument for projecting attitudes
and action programs for relating both our citizens and
our guests to them in a way that win preserve and pro­
tect and even improve these treasures.
The birds, the trees, the rocks, the insects, the wild­
life and the hills and lakes and valleys all have stories
to tell ns and lessons to teach us. There is ths potential
tor wundsrfhi fellowship in sharing our discoveries so
X shaU too pointing out this social potential as we ex­
plore and I sbaE encourage the readers tai feed back
thrtr dfooorories and reaottons.
I long to see many specialised interest groups spring
up that win use the camera, the artist's brush, camping
gear, canoes and all the gadgetry of the out of doors to
create exciting programs for people. Hopefully our Barry
County people will unite in an effort to make Environ­
mental Appreciation a way of life which win be reflected
in our schools, churrhe*, adult and youth groups and
especially oar own families.

THE HASTINGS BANNER—Wednesday, May 26, 1971

�Wayne's Displaying Shoe Oddities
.
***** 00 dUpUy **
tfurinc the Centennial period aron't Myles
were made
up Just to Uro you something to look aU-theyYe mall
They’ll give you an idea of what people newt to put
on their feet!
Wayne's is displaying authentic shoe oddities from
all over the world—including the America of Alwafwm
Lincolns day to the present. You may feel your shoes
hurt now and then, but you'll be glad you didn't live
back when some of these were in rogue.
*
This antique shoe collection is on loan to Wayne's
from Wohl Shoe Company of St Louis. Xt is r^rt of
Wohl’S comprehensive collection of antique and amtemporary footwear from almost every nation in the world—
one of the moot complete and rare collections of its kind
known.
In this collection are shoes once worn by men, wom­
en and children. Many look grotesque. Almost all are ob­
viously uncomfortable tn comparison with the modem
styles that stream off the assembly line of the efficient
American shoe industry at the rate of more than 5300
pairs a minute.
Shoes that walked several continents apart sit side
by side at Waynes. Styles that look as if they stepped
out of the pages of the 'Arabian Nights"—decorated with
mother - of - peart, silver wire, sequins, even iridescent
bedties* wings—glitter next to cheap made-at-home of
grass, hemp and rice straw from the other side of the
world. Clogs that shuffled Along in torrid Africa meet
up with long-hair fur boots that mushed through frigid
Arctic snows. Elegant Chinese silk slippers painstakingly
embroidered and delicately appliqued in multi-color
show up the* stark simplicity of unpainted wood clogs
K
from Cuba and Slam.

Women of today will snicker at platform pedestals
on Chinese shoes. These stilt-like affairs were more
than four Inches high, made of layer on layer of paper.
As they wore down, new layers were added. Perhaps they
were wonderful for stepping over mud puddles, but if
some poor girt ventured out in today's city traffic wear­
ing a pair, she wouldn't stand a chance of crossing the
street safely—eeperlslly during the rush hour.

3 Hurt in 1-Car Crash
Three young men were injured about 11:55 pm. Fri­
day, May 14, when a 1963 Mercury driven east by Robert
Thomas, 31, 831 E. State, failed to make a curve on W.
State Road about three miles east of Middleville, Deputy
William Cassidy said.
The oar went off the south side of the road, hit a
stump and rolled over.
Daniel C. Helsel, 21, Hastings, was taken to Blodgett
Hospital suffering with a possible skull fracture, and
Thomas was taken there too.
David L Aliening, 20, 606 E. Grand, was treated at
Pennock for bruises.

,
Bees are needed to pollinate nearly 1100 million
worth of fruit crops, cucumbers, muskmelons, clovers and
alfalfa. reports E. C. (Bert) Martin, Michigan State
University entomologist.
»• Rental Fee
“The Michigan Beekeepers Association ‘recommends
a rental fee of 810 a hive, except for cucumbers, where a
812 fee Is recommended.
Bees for cucumber pollination cost more because the
hives are heavier and more difficult to move In mid­
summer when the cucumbers need pollinating. Also,
moving hives at this time reduces chances of a honey
crop and hurts chances of the bees Winter survival.”
Martin says moot crops require one hive per acre for
pollination, but blueberries need two or more colonies.
He suggests growers contact beekeepers now to make
arrangements for pollination periods.

�By H. D. Burpee

C. K. &lt;fc 8.. and the resulting development of Crooked
and Wall as resort lakes. Kalamazoo people built a large
••hare of the cottages at Crooked lake, while Hastings

resorters, accounted for mcst of the cottages at Wall
lake. Not long after the town was platted, a roller mill
was erected at Delton. All these favorable conditions
called for a town: the town arrived and continues, al­
though it has never been incorporated.
The plat for the village, as recorded in the office of
the Register of Deeds, was filed by James R. Bush and
F. A. Blackman, on whose farms the townsite was lo­
cated. The business places are mostly built fronting the
north and south highway through the town, now a part
of M-43. That road was constructed long before Delton
was an idea in anycne’s mind. But Delton is not a one
street town like Prairieville. It was platted with cross
streets, on some of which residences have been erected.
However, the builders of Delton homes seem to have
preferred having them on the two highways. Trunk Line
43. running north and south, and the east-and-west
county road, which intersects M-43 at Delton. The town
has a number of nice cozy homes.
*
Prominent fanners who lived in and near Delton
when I first‘knew the place were the following:
Wm. P. Sidnam who later was Register of Deeds of
this county fcr two terms, who still later moved to Kala­
mazoo, where he spent the closing years of his life.
F. A. Blackman, generally called "Whale” Black­
man. because that was what he did to a few fellows in
his younger days who thought they could get the best
of him in a scrap, but found they had tackled the wrong
chap. He was quick and unusually rtrong, as his antag­
onists learned to their sorrow. He was jolly and good
natured. He was never looking for trouble, but never
ran away from it when it came his way. At times when
Delton had no hotel, Mr. and Mrs. Blackman obligingly
opened their home and served meals. The writer was
a guest there on several occasions and remembers the
very tasty meals served by Mrs. Blackman.
The writer recalls James R. and A. B. Bush, promi­
nent and highly respected residents of- that locality, but
lie never became, as well acquainted with them as he did
with the first two mentioned above.
The writer also knew, but was not so well acquainted
with Orrin Barrett and Addison Pennock, who owned
fine farms near Delton.
.
It was fortunate for the village when Ellis Faulk­
ner established a drug store and Fred Hughes efforts
gave Delton its substantial bank. Both men have aided
the development of the village. The two Leonards,
George and Leon, now deceased. were not noisy about
it, but they were interested in the progress of Delton.
The late Roy Thcrpe was a persistent booster, and the
auditorium which he helped so much to put across is a
monument to his public spirit. No doubt there are seve­
ral others whose work for the town the writer does not
know, who ought to be mentioned in such a list. Cer­
tainly there was R. G. Henton, who could be relied on for
his share in all efforts for the community's progress.
The business men of Delton have not been narrow
in their public spiritedness. They have been ready to do

their share to aid Ccunly-wide projects.
When rural free mail delivery came, Delton, by rear
son of its location near the corner of four townships, also
because the C. K. &amp; 8. then offered good train service,
with two daily passenger trains each way. was natur­
ally selected as the main mall distributing point for the
four southwest townships of this county. The automobile,
the bus, the motor truck and good roads put the Kibosh
on the C. K. Ac 8. But Delton still has her rural routes.
Mall is now carried by mail truck to and from Hastings
and Kalamazoo. The discontinuence of mall service over
the C. K. &amp; 8. has not been detrimental to the mall
service at and from Delton. What is missed most is prob­
ably the pungent smell of coal smoke as the trains
whizzed (?) through the village. Maybe the homemakers
of the town are reconciled to that deprivation. We pre­
sume. however, that most of the villagers would gladly
endure the smoke if the C. K. A 8. and its three trains a
day each way could be restored.
Delton has three churches, Methodist. Baptist and
Catholic. AU equipped for social as well as religious
gatherings. Generally speaking, the village folks are in­
terested In having the churches function. They would not
wish to live in a community without a church. They
know it is needed to counteract influences that are not
helpful. They are not so interested in its name as in
what it does.
Delton businessmen are highly favored, compared
with most rural villages. Instead of the Summer being
a dull period, it is their most active season. They are
alive to their opportunities, and go after ths large resort
trade at Crooked. Wall, and other nearby lakes, and
they get a large share. They are wise and fair about It.
They do not regard the resorters as "good picking" and
overcharge. They seek the good will of these Summer
visitors by giving them reasonable prices and good ser­
vice. That wise course has helped Delton and benefitted
the Increasing number of lake reaorters.
I expect to conclude this history with information I
am sure very few people know. It will take some little
time, but I believe it is possible to obtain this infor­
mation, so keep your fingers crossed. It will be as in­
teresting to me as It will'be to you. Until then, happy
hunting.

Sheepmen to Vote in June
A Nation-wide sheep producer referendum has been
called for June 7-18.
The referendum, conducted by mail ballot, will de­
cide whether or not the sheep industry wants to con­
tinue promotion of its products through the American
Sheep Producers Council.
For approval, this promotion program for lamb and
wool requires a “yea" vote by more than two-thirds of
the Individual producers voting, or producers owning
more than two-thirds of the sheep represented in the
referendum by those voting.
With sheep raised in almost 3,000 counties in the
U. B, the National referendum study will reflect the
desires of almost every sheepman in the nation. All
sheep producers and feeders are eligible to vote if they
have owned sheep or lambs, six months of age or older,
for any one period of at least 30 days since Jan. 1, 1971.

Mocking Bird
That ear - piercing sound
you may hear this week Is
an 1880 mocking bird whis­
tle. The whistle is mounted
on the boiler room at the
Hastings Mfg. Company and
workmen have attempted to
repair it for use during the
centennial this Week.
Charles Harthy, assistant
personnel manager at the
company, says a part of the
whistle ia broken and no
longer is manufactured and
residents will hear a varia­
tion in tones but not the
original mocking bird sound.
The whistle over the yean
has seen a great deal of
action. At one time the fire
department used It and dur­
ing World War H, the whis­
tle was mounted on the old
Bookcase Company and
served as an air-raid siren.
When the 1918 Armistice
was signed the whistle blew
continuously for 34 hours,
requiring two men to keep
two boilers fired in order
to accomplish the feat. The
city imported a gentleman
from Grand Rapids to play
songs on the whistle includ­
ing "Marching thru Geor­
gia" and "Yankee Doodle."
According to Harthy, the
whistle belongs to Chariton
Park, but Hastings Mfg.
Company
is storing
the
whistle for the present. The
city gave the whistle to
John Baum upon his retire­
ment from the city water
works department. The el­
der Baum's son, Lawrence.
8r, gave the whistle to the
Charlton Museum, but un­
til such time the Museum
has sufficient steam to blow
the whistle, the Manufac­
turing Company will retain
possession of it.

�consideration of House bill No. 108 entitled.

“A bill to incorporate the city of Hastings; which mo­

*................. ...

its immediate passage.

With the final week of the Centennial underway.
Hastings will be completing a successful and memorable
celebration that began with the banquet on March 11.
It was on that exact date, one hundred years ago, that
Hastings became a city only sixteen years after it
was incorporated as a village in 1855.
Thanks to the courtesy of Dr. Robert M. Warner of
the Michigan Historical Collections at the University of
Michigan, we have on loan for these final Centennial
Days the bound volume containing the issues of The
Banner published in 1871. Several years ago. aU the
Banners from 1856 through 1908, were chemically treat­
ed. laminated and rebound and were presented to the
Historical Collections which, over the years has assem­
bled a unique and Invaluable collection of documents
and source material concerning Michigan history.

So. as one might say. these newspapers of a century
ago, are back home again for a brief visit, after which
they will be returned to the quiet and specialised sur­
roundings devoted to historical research.
Personally, we were well pleased that these quaint
old volumes were able to find such a dignified and useful
permanent home.

Back in 1871, The Banner’s official title was, the
"Hastings Republican Banner”—and I hope there were
plenty of long-armed readers back in those days, be­
cause the page size was enormous, 23 Vi Inches by 27 S4
inches, to be exact and each page contained nine, 14pica columns of type (average type column today is about
10*4 picas). So, fully opened up, the paper would cover
a spread of nearly four feet and with more than two
feet of reading matter crammed between the top and
bottom lines of each of the nine columns on each page.
•

•

•

All the type then was set by hand and redistributed
to .the cases for further use after each issue was pub­
lished. Even in a four-page paper such as the 1871 Issues,
that\ represented a lot of exacting hand work.

As a special feature for the Centennial. 'Hie Banner
is printing a small-sized daily special. However, this is
not the first daily to be published by The Banner. Has­
tings had a dally "evening" paper for thirty eventful
days from Tuesday, Aug. 15, 1871 through Wednesday.
Sept. 13, 1871. These specials, published in late afternoon
each Monday through Saturday during the above dates
were to cover the Vanderpool trial, a sensational mur­
der case that gained state-wide and even national at­
tention. After the first two trials had resulted* in a
deadlock, the case was sent to Barry county under a
change in venue.
The Banner reacted to this highly-charged situation
by hitting the street each evening with publications that
“scooped" the daily papers throughout the state. Each
issue was in the form of a four page sheet, of 14 inches
by 23 inches in size and containing five columns of
type. Page 1 was solid news: page 2 contained about
2*4 columns of standing ads with a runover of the story
from page 1; page 3 was solid with standing ada; page
4 contained three columns of standing ads and either a
continuation of the trial news or miscellaneous features,
probably selected from the regular weekly edition.

It was a remarkable performance, for a little country
print shop. Remember, each letter and each mark of
punctuation had to be set by hand and then redistributed
immediately after the printing to provide the supply
of type needed for the issue next day. There must have
been several sore-armed compositors in The Banner shop
by the time the Vanderpool trial ended in an acquitall
The price for this daily special was 11.00 for the dura­
tion of the trial.

"The bill was then read a third time, and pending the

taking of the vote on the passage thereof.

“Mr. R. J. Grant moved to amend section 45 by
striking out all before the proviso, and inserting in lieu
thereof the words. “All acts Inconsistent with the pro­
visions of this act arc hereby repealed." Which motion
prevailed.

“The bill was then passed, a majority of all the

members elect voting therefor.
"The vote stood 78 to 1 Representative Garfield being
the only member voting against it “He probably was
crazy." The bill will no doubt pass the Senate this week
Friday, and then it is a “fixed fact" Much credit is due
to our worthy townsman, Hon. R. J. Grant for his en­
ergy, and diligence in getting this important matter
through before the 14th. for in doing so, he saved us a
great deal of expense attending the holding of the Char­
ter Election. The election of officers for our City will
occur on the first Monday in April, the same Ume as
the usual spring elections are held.

“Our city will hagc four wards — all north of Thorn­
apple river being the first ward; south of the river and
east of Fall Creek being the second ward; south of the
river, west of Fan Creek to Church Street being the
third ward; west of Church street and south of the
river being the fourth ward. The following are the
officers to be elected:
“Mayor, Recorder, Treasurer, Four Aidermen, Four
Justices, Marshal, one Supervisor, (The Mayor to act as
Supervisor during the regular sessions of that Board,)
and four Constables.”
In the issue of March 16. 1871, the week after Has­
tings had received its Charter — brought here from
Lansing via horseback—The Banner devoted nine full
columns to reprinting in detail the Articles of Incorpor­
ation. Every citizen here had a chance to learn exactly
what it was all about!

Hastings citizens of a century ago must have taken
pride when their community changed from a village to
a city status. Yet, the first editorial recognition that
such a project was in the final stages appeared under
a modest headline in the issue of March 9. 1871 which
proclaimed that:
THE CITY OF HASTINGS!
BILL PASSED THE HOUSE,
78 to 1
"From the Proceedings of the Legislature of Tuesday,
we find the following in regard to the passage of the
bill to incorporate the City of Hastings:

“Mr. R. J. Grant, by unanimous consent, moved to
discharge the committee of the whole from the further
THE HASTINGS BANNER—

Hastings, one hundred years ago, had something that
we lack now—excellent train sendee between here to
Grand Rapids and east to Jackson and Detroit — three
trains each way per day, in fact. Since this aeryice had
been in operation less than two years, passengers were
undoubtedly still thrilled at the thought of-speeding
along at 20 mph.

We have heard many comments concerning the good
feeling that this Centennial Program has created here
in the community with everyone working together in a
spirit of friendliness and enthusiasm.
Do we have to wait another hundred years for an­
other opportunity to develop? There is no reason why
we should. People here have learned the fun and satis­
faction to be derived from pulling together on a project
of mutual Interest and significance. There are many
worthwhile activities that should benefit our community
and create a reawakening of the Centennial spirit. Let’s
give this the thought and consideration It deserves.

During Centennial Week the 1871 Banner File will be
on display at the Hastings Public Library.

Voice of the People

Big headlines' were seldom used in The Banner issues
of 100 years ago. This gave more room for news. Also, in
a small community everyone knew all the sensational
Items ’as they happened —so why waste space for a
recounting of events that were already common know­
ledge.

Henry A. Goodyear, a pioneer merchant here, who
served as the first village president in 1856 was also
named the first major, defeating for that post by a mar­
gin of 18 votes in a total vote of 477, my paternal grand­
father. David R. Cook.

Ta the Editor:

After reading the front page of the May 19th Banner
pertaining,,to the school board meeting, we were con­
fused by the naivety on the subject of drugs. What seems
to be a minor problem to law officials and others is a
major problem to the parents involved.
Must 1/3 or 1/2 of a population be effected by a
problem to make it a definite reality?
We urge ALL parents to educate themselves thor­
oughly on Marijuana, Barbltuates, Amphetamines, hard
drugs and Hallucinogens to at least understand and pos­
sibly detect signs of drug usage, to protect yourself and
your child from the agony suffered through the effects

Wednesday, June 2. 1971

Again quoting from the May 19th Banner: "We have
a minor drug problem in Hastings, primarily Marijuana
and various pills. We do have the problem of young
people obtaining legal prescription drugs illegally or
improperly using them" unquote.
“IB THIS MINOR?"
Please be an interested parent and give your time and
support to the committees now formed to study and
set up a new working drug program for our schools and
our community. These committees are listed in the
Newsletter every taxpayer received last Friday. READ
IT THOROUGHLY and THEN do something about it
This is our only hope!!

--------------- .fiB---------------To the Editor:
The politicians have given ua reason to rebel. In
1968 Richard Nixon was elected with the promise to get
us out of Nam. Three years later we are still Involved
in a 1 Ato in an undeclared and illegal war.
The last tteee President* involved us in a foreign
war without a formal declaration of war. Ctangresa
kept ua involved by furnishing military manpower and
funds for the continuation of the war. The Courts are
wrangling over a judicial determination of the con­
stitutionality of an ongoing war.
A recent Gallup Poll indicates that 73 percent qf
Americam aupport the withdrawal of ALL our forces
in Indo-China by Dee. 31, 1971. Withdrawal means noninvotvement and we should get out 100 percent.
The Courts and poiiteciana have Ignored us. A sys­
tem that fails to hear her people commits its own hiri
kalri.

TO we tawor:
I noticed in a few weeks past issue of The Hastings
Banner the County Road Commission had big head
lines splashed across the top of the first page telling
of what a wonderful job they are doing in the county
on road repairs, maintenance and building new ones
which is all very commendable.
'
tt is good to know where and how our tax doDars
are going but we have asked for a quarter mile in Irv­
ing Township on Garbow Road to be opened so we can
build a new house back in there which would require
some grading, a new culvert and some gravel and they
tell us they have no money for It. "This road has been
unused for 30 years or more tout taxes have been col­
lected on tt all this time with no maintenance coot at
all because no one has lived on this end of It for that
long.
They told us last year they would try to appropriate
money to open it for us thio Spring so we have things
ready to go and now they refuse to do anything about
it It all boils down to not knowing the right politicians
and not having the right connections. We know of
roads that have been repaired for leas reasons than
building a house on.

Cheese will melt quicker if it is sliced, cubed, shred­
ded or grated to use in a recipe. Shred soft cheese on a
coarse grater; hard cheese on a fine one. When cooking
cheese, use low temperatures and do not overcook be­
— cause it will become tough and stringy.

Officer In charge Stanley Thompson aald increases
in most postage rates took effect May 16 as the new
Postal Service began Its task of achieving self sufficiency
as required by the Postal Reorganisation Act.
Thompson said general postage rates had not been
increased since 1067 when Congress passed what was to
become |ts final legislative act in this respect.
He pointed out that. earlier requests for rate in­
creases were proposed to Congress in I960 by both Presi­
dent Johnson and President Nixon. In addition. Presi-

dent Nixon proposed an increase again tn 1970. although
none of the proposed increases were acted upon by ConThompson explained that the increases authorised' on
a temporary basis until the newly created Postal Rate
Commission can make recommendations to the rover-

raise first-class letter rates from 6 to 8 cents an ounce,
and airmail letter rates from 10 to 11 cents an ounce.
Post cards went from 5 to 6 cents each.
The Increases will be borne more by business than
by individuals, since about 75 percent of first class and
airmail is from commercial mailers
In addition to increases in first-class rates, second
and third class also went up. However, the full increases
proposed by tbs Postal Service was not to be put Into
effect on a temporary basis, in the second and third
class, since the postal reform legislation contemplates

years for nonprofit organisations — provided Congress
appropriates the necessary funds to case the transition
to full rates.
Because of the phasing provision, the increases for
second and third-class is generally only 1/8 of the total
increase which has been proposed by the Postal Service.
No changes are made in the rates for parcel post,
which is the principal component of fourth-class mail.
However, initial increases will be made in the "book-rate"
which Is classified as fourth class.
The new temporary rates also make changes in other
postage rate categories and special service fees, such as
The Postal Service advised the public in February
that it intended to make temporary Increases if the Postal
Hate Commission did not make the recommended deci­
sion within 90 days of the request by the Postal Service.

Letter to the Editor:
- I'would like to express my reply to the dissatisfied
"Citizen" on.his letter to the editor on DELTON —A
COMMUNITY WITH MANY ADVANTAGES.
The article's last sentence, "Plenty of land to build
on. away from the trouble that 13 within the large
cities"------ is exactly why we built a new home in this
area.
.
We happily moved away from:
.
1- high city taxes
2. that dldnt decrease after an additional city
Incomt tax
.
3. exuberant water-sewer bills
4. abundance of soot
5. lots of noise
6. striking policemen and firemen
7. and especially all the school problems.
I suggest you stop crying about the appearance-wise
of our friendly quiet old-fashioned community, or else
move on.
A Delighted Delton Citizen

�Fresh Out of the Attic

|

By H. D. Burpee
For this history of Delton. I must give Francis Nor­
wood a lot of credit. I have taken her history, writ­
ten several years ago. and rewrote it. making a few
additions and a few corrections. It is hard to start with
the first merchant and then the second, ete., and trace
the town in the correct order that actually hap­
pened.
Delton was named after Dell Monroe, first mer­
chant and postmaster. Mrs. Thursa Bush, mother of the
well-known mail carrier, Lincoln Busfi. that all us old
timers know and remember, sent into Lansing and ask­
ed to have the town named Dellstown Evidently they
thought Delton a much more practical name, as that
was the name authorities in Lansing selected and
sent back. I am sure no one has any kick on their
choice. We do not know Just what date the town was
named. However, portal records show that the first
postoffice was established on May 23. 1877. with Adal­
bert E Monroe, the first postmaster. I would think that
would indicate the naming of the town took place a
short time previous to this date.
Jim Bush was the second postmaster and was ap­
pointed Dec. 10. 1070 His postoffice was in the old
house on the north side of the creamery, where Don
Hayward is now erecting a new home. Fem Norwood
told me a box was nailed on to the house and people
would find their mall in Ute box. and that this box
was stUl there when her folks bought the place several
years later. By the way. Fern's dad, Maje Brandstetter.
a well known man, died in 1907 and his funeral was in
this same house and this was the first funeral I can
remam her of going to. Abraham Bush carried the mall
from Delton to Hickory Corners.
In the year 1880 Frank Norwood (Marshall and Ma­
son's dad) bought the store from Mr. Monroe and ac­
cording to postal records he was made postmaster on
May 18. 1889. He carried on this business for 13 years.
At this time there were several farm houses near

Norwoods store. F. A. Blackman, where Che new bank
is now being built, Jim and Aneil Bush, out south of
where the Methodist Church now stands. Green Bar­
rett. where the Higdons' now live. W P. Sidman, the
old Frank Dostec farm, now owned by Bill Smith, and
M. C. Gwin who lived where Roy Smith lived and Just
sold. I understand Well do I remember Mere. Gwin,
as well as his wife They were a wonderful couple He
would drive a grey horse into town after the mail every
morning.
The first school after Delton became a town was
where Herman Reynolds used to live, near the Hull
Realty at the present.
The first graduating class was in 1905. Of course,
this would have been from the 10th grade. Jennie
Richards Johnson, who sUll lives out north and west
of town and Fem Brandstetter Norwood, of whom I
Just spoke of. composed the first graduating class. Bur­
ton Perry was the teacher.
Our first train rolled into Delton around Sept. 20.
1887. and Elgin Barton was the first ticket agent. The
first barber shop was run by Thomas Baird. George
McCroten started the first blacksmith shop in 1883
and was later taken over by Arthur Mantel, whom I
remember very weM. His last blacksmith shop was in
the basement of what was now Barry's store, and the
Mantel's lived in the first house west of the store. Art
and Mrs. Mantel's twin boys, Elmer and Elmo, were
born here on July 3rd. 1893 or 1894. The next day, July
4th. is the same Fourth of July morning that Ellsworth
Barrett decided to start off the Fourth of July cele­
bration. slated for that day, by touching off a stick
of dynamite on the comer half way between where
Lou's Beauty Parlor used to be and Casey's Variety
store was. This happened around three or four o’clock
in the morning, and needless td say he succeeded in
starting the celebration. Everyone down in “The Loop"
was up rather early that morning. Ellsworth had a lot
of windows to pay for and at one time he told me he
not only had to pay for the ones he actually broke but
for all the windows that had been cracked for years be­
fore this happened. Anyway when this was an over with.

Delton had a full set of window lights, and not a crack

Our present Elevator waa built and managed by R,
T. Dodds in 1888, and later run by Hartman. Brand­
stetter and Gillis. Following these men the Elevator
became a Co-op.
^Podge and Robinson started the first 'furniture
store between where Weaver's Market now stands and
the Kern house or the first house north of where
Weaver’s Market, used to be. Thia furniture store was
later taken over by John Williams, who was also Del­
ton's first undertaker.
On Che spot where WeaVer's Market now stands and
also on the spot where the old log school set 100 years
ago, before Delton was here, F. A. Blackman evidently
built the old store and Macabee Hall up above the
store. This store and hall and the above spoken of
furniture store were all one and the whole block burn­
ed. I would say between 1910 and 1930.
Mason and Marshall Norwood can well remember
the H. O. Lester store on this location. Mr. Blackman
evidently leased this store building to H. O. Lester, in
the Abstract office in Hastings it-shows that on April
6, 1890, F. A. Blackman sold this store to Marrietta
Thompson and that in 1907 Marrietta Haight sold to
George Kern. Marrietta Thompson evidently changed
her name to Haight sometime between 1895 and 1907.
This Macabee Hall was a big loss to Delton. Every­
one for miles around knew this hall as the place for
the “doings * such as socials, school plays, plays put on
by the Delton Military Band, dances and parties of all
klndb. It had an outside stairway on the back of the
store or west side, and then a small hall to go through
before entering the main haM. A small kitchen was op­
posite the small hall or entrance hall. I have been In
this hall many times. The lady Macabee*. of course,
held their lodge meetings there regularly. My grand­
parents as well as my folks, at one time, were Macabees. Pictures of some of the departed members hung
here and there around the wall, including a picture on
one of my Dad’s sisters.

�EXPLOUB COLUMN COPY

With the arrival at Spring most of us cant helpjxit
be aware at the beauty of our Barry County I andampr.
The alm of thta column win be to take a second toqft. at
thia very extra something that makes us want to live
Lu Barry County. We shall try not to Just observe and
comment on tlbe obvious but focus in on the total en­
vironment. the geography, the plant resources, the bird
and animal inhabitants, the geological and soil treas­
ures and even the billions of tiny invisible creatures
that share this 576 square miles of Michigan country­
side we call Barry County.
In an age when understanding ecology has become

a crusading toue it h time we not only frantically seek
to combat pollution but less dramatically begin to
build a new awareness and attitudes that will prepare
our hearts to live at peace with the many factors of
our natural world we have ignored or trampled on With
our bull dooer synthetic technology
Do we not need a new music and poetry and even
a revised philosophy and theology to begin to bring
our living pattern more in harmony with the chorus
of the Spring Peepers, the Cricket Frogs and Chicka­
dees. This might be a worthwhile alternative to the
throb of the comho.
I have long believed that there is much Joy and fel­
lowship possible by learning and sharing Nature Arts
and Crefts and ao I plan to present novel and inter­
esting ways to use wood, rocks, and natural materials
to create beautiful and useful things. I long to see peo­
ple In my community relate to each other by a common
Interest in gardening, landscape, building ponds and
parks and other constructive outdoor interest activities.
I want to see this column become a meeting point
for people who share these interests so I will be asking
you to share your discoveries as we go exploring our
own back yards—the Only Northern County In South­
ern Michigan.

But Revenue to Decrease
The 1971 State equalized valuation of the Lakewood
District has increased to 835,633,826, according to coun­
ty officials. Thia represents a 8998,724 increase over
the previous year or 2J percent
Unlike last year, this year's increased valuation re­
sulted from new construction rather than re-assess­
ment of present property.
Unfortunately for the district, school officials said,
the increase in valuation would result in a net km of
82,547 of operating money based on this year's millage
rates and State Aid act. The Lakewood present millage
rate of 17.45 mills would need to be Increased to the
20 mills deducted by the state aid formula for the dis­
trict to break even.
The average school operating millage in the state
is between 25 and 26 mills.

�If the 1971 Hastings Centennial does
no more than to arouse an awareness
uf tiur rich heritage, then it trill have
fulfilled a good talk, indeed.

However, even in this age when so
many- altitudes are negative attitudes,
this Centennial has done more than
merely creating pleasant nostalgia.

It has brought people together tn plan,
work ami participate in a positive war.
There hns even been a measure of suc­
cess in bridging the so-called genera­
tion gap.

It has created a little more pride in
our city . . . and in nunelves.

May the “Spirit of *71” continue long
after the week designated as Centennial
t’cek draws Io a close.

Th^^astings Area School District is losing a 6th
grade teacher from Southeastern who hates to leave
the system but can’t pass up the opportunity to play
hockey in the European National Hockey League with
a team representing Austria. The teacher is Norm
Gaffney, a graduate of Michigan State University
and who has been commuting from the East Lansing
campus so that he can skate every day.
Gaffney, a sharp, personable young man. said be was
eager to take a crack at playing professional hockey,
and in addition, the year abroad will give him an op­
portunity to see Europe “with pay." If things go well,
he could extend the tour to two yean, and then he
might also attempt to play for a US. professional team.
Even with his prospects. Gaffney said he hates to
leave Southeastern, where teaching has been a "great
experience. Ill really miss the kids." Gaffney, naturally,
added that he wished Hastings had an Ice rink. "Ice
rinks can be used the year around. They are not too
expensive to build, either."
Gaffney, 5-11, 170 pounds, also praised the South­
eastern sixth graders, who "really work hard.’’ Principal
Dave Arnold said that **I think he (Gaffney) is k fine
person and relates well with the kids.”
Gaffney thinks the greatest honor he has received in
his lifetime was being named to the High School All
American Hociuy Team. It came after he was selected
to play for the Blackhawks, a team from Illinois which
took second in the Nation. MBU head hockey Coach Amo
Bessoife said, "Norm is a versatile forward playing either
left wing or center. He is a powerful, tireless skater whom
I often relied upon to kill penalties."
Gaffney, who has been skating since he was five, is a
graduate of Immac rte Conception High at Elmhurst,
'
at Port Huron and when he was
Ill. He began skatl
a District All Star team. He capnine he was picked
laired a Rotary All
ir team when he was 11 and scored
60 goals. His record goes on and on, and all who know
him here wish it will continue.
By the way, he is looking for a Summer Job.

Batteries housed In en­

Marine Safety Section of
the Michigan Department
of Natural Resource*.
, The danger was spotllght/ed when the Association of
American Battery Manufac­
turers ( A A B M ) reported
that hydrogen gas given off
by boat batteries can result
in damaging blast* if it is
not allowed to escape from

The AABM explained that
most boat* have ventilating
systems for their enclosed
compartments
which
are
only designed for venting
gasoline vapors. Hydrogen
gas. unlike gasoline vapor,
is lighter than air and, thus,
calls for vent* in the up­

where it may otherwise
build up to the exploding

Every inch a Chryder. Met with Royal,
the deal itarti 1112 leu than Newport,
previously our lowest-priced series.
The Royal is just as big as our most lux­
urious New Yorker. And bigger than Its com­
petition — Buick LeSabre and Olds Delta 88.
Outside and in.
Royal’s 360 V-8 delivers more power, too.
Power for freeway cruising without
strain. Power for safe
passing. All on
regular gas.

Royal also gives you a better suspension
system: torsion bars instead of coil springs.
The ride is firmer. More controlled.
On a trip to the supermarket, you might
not notice the difference. On a quick express­
way lane change or a
tight turn, you surely
will.

Outside of Chrysler products, only two
American cars have torsion bars — Cadillac
Eldorado and Oldsmobile Toronado.
Another difference: Royal's body-Is
welded Into a aingle solid Unibody. It's the
strongest way to build a car. And there are
no body bolts to work free and rattle.
Buick and Olda use the old body-boltedto-frame technique.

A Chryder priced to introduce
you to Chryder.
Yet lor all this extra value, Royal Is priced
just about the same as LeSabre and Delta 88.
Royal. With everything you expect of a
Chrysler. At a price you don't.

�4H Entomology Program

the relationship hekwsan water quality and life become*
very real a* leaden and member* learn together on field

Supplying Key Personnel
By Landug Gilbert
&lt;H Key Leader In Coneenellen
Learning to pin butterflies for r “Bug" collection
may seem a strange way to meet the problems of the en­
vironmental crisis and food supply but the 4H youth who
are learning about insect* are a prime source for per­
sonnel for future research scientists who are faced with
the problem of Insuring the world food supply without
poisoning the environment.
At a recent 4H leader training conference at Camp
Kett, Dr. Gordon Guyer, Chairman of the Michigan
State Entomology Department estimated tl»t about 1/3
of the future Entomologists at M8U came from the
ranks of-4JJgrs. He quickly added that they were among
the very best students.
Number wise Entomology enrollment in 4H is small
compared with the sewing or horse project enrollment
but in counties where leaders are willing to try and to
attend leader training sessions sponsored by MSU and
the Michigan 4H Foundation (Selected Junior leaden
are also trained) the programs are producing a xml in­
terest among the youth of the state. Whole families are
finding new dimensions to living by learning about the
“good” and •'bad” insects and other creatures that
share our planet with us.
New projects are constantly being explored in the
Entomology project field ranging from Intensively sci­
entific opes involving black light collecting, microscope
studies to fun things like creating attractive displays,
plastic embedments and artistic creation*. Rearing in­
sect* through their life cycle—especially the Giant night
moths—is a most intereettng new project area. Bee keep*
ing is one with economic overtones to help tight budgets
that has long been available.
Four-H by introducing members to the fun of a hobby
experience Is again making a real contribution to society.
Pond life with Its strange creatures and important ecolo­
gical relevance is now being explored by 4H youth and

Young people who are wondering how to make their
effort* have meaning and who like the living world of
the out of doors are invited to contact their local 4H
youth agent about starting a 4H Entomology Club.
Four 4H leaden attended the 4H Leaden Entomology
Conference held at Camp Kett, Cadillac April 23-24.
They included Lansing Gilbert, Mrs. Virginia Anders,
Roger Anders, and Christine Colllge.
Adults and cider teen* who would like to make a
contribution to society through environmental study
might do well to consider a 4H Entomology Club. For
more information contact your 4H Youth Agent in the
Extension office in Hastings, or contact Mrs. Marge
Barcroft, Margaret Ackerman, Delton, Lansing Gilbert,
HaSHng*. or Virginia Anders near Assyria.

Barry to Cut Costs at

County Medical Facility
Coot cutting measures at the Barry County Medical
Faculty are expected to be adopted by County Oommizsioners next month.
County finance committeemen and social service
board members have worked out procedure* to trim
the facility's operating costs for the remainder of the
year by approximately 840,000.
County Finance Chairman Joe Bennett said the cuts
will Include among other things, laying off six em­
ployee*.
Presently, it cost 82131 per patient day. Medi-cald
reimburses the facility for only 818 per day, leaving the
balance to be under-written by the county. Currently
that figure amounts to 837,000.
Bennett called the cost cutting measures very work­
able, and said K is a step in the right direction in bring­
ing expenses in line with revenue. Bennett has indi­
cated similar measures are in store for other county
departments.

The leader... any way you look at it.
Cadillac for 1971. It could well be your best car buy, any way
you look at it.
Styling. It's a carefully created combination of styling continu­

Comfort. A longer wheelbase and new suspension system
mean an even smoother ride.
Performance. The proven 472-cubic-inch V-8 is amazingly
responsive—on regular gasoline or no-lead and low-lead fuels.

Luxury. In the incredible quietness inside, in the beautiful
standard appointments and In the many features you can order.
Choice. The first Cadillac luxury you enjoy. There are nine
models from which to choose.
Value. A Cadillac traditionally returns a larger portion of orig­
inal-investment than any other car built In the land. Cadillac is
the leader—any way you look at it. And now is the time to look
at it—at your authorized Cadillac dealer's showroom.

Cadillac la doing somathing about traffic safety, but soma things only
you can do. You might ba surprised by the scope of our Involvement in
advancing the cause of safety.
Did you know, lor Instance, that Cadillac was the first to Install safety
glass In its cars? And Introduced the triple braking system?
Today you can see evidence of lhe magnitude of our concern. The 1971
Cadillacs incorporate a host ol recent safety developments. Including an
energy absorbing steering column. Padded Instrument panel. Seat belts

for all passenger positions. Side-Guard steel beams in the doors.
And the work goes on. But all our efforts will not be enough, unless you
do your share.
Here are five ways you can help. 1. Always use your seat and shoulder
belts. 2. Make sure your car Is in good running order. 3. Never drive when
you’re tired or under the Influence of alcohol. 4. Support driver training and
uniform traffic codes and enforcement. 5. Drive defensively. Please. Will you
do your part?

Curbside viewent of the Hartings Centennial Parade
on June 5 will aee a lot of fast action, but none likely
to equal the fast paqe of the world famous American
Legion Zoi&amp;ves.
This 21-man aggregation, which has performed be­
fore kings and commoners and on the Ed Sullivan Show
on Mx occasions, is being brought to Hastings by Has­
tings City Bank as its contribution to the Centennial
Parade, according tn Thomas Stebbins, City Bank presi­
dent.

Intricate Formattort
"Probably most people in Che Hastings area bare
seen the Zouaves on television at one time or another.
but we felt they would like an opportunity to see them
perform live,” Stebbins said.
When performing on a piatfonn, the Zouaves move
thru their intricate aeries of close order drill forma­
tions, interspersed with rifle manuals, at an amaaing
300 steps per minute—nearly three times the regular
military drill cadence.
For parades, the Zouaves use the regular military
cadence, featuring a variety of colorful formations and

The name "Zouaves" (pronounced Zoo-avis) originally
was used by two BattaUons of the French Army wr­
ing in Algtan in the eariy IMO'S, and composed mainly
of members of a native tribe kntown as Zouaouas. Noted
for their dash and bravery, these original Zouaves wore
brightly colored uniforms, from which the present uni­
forms were patterned.

‘Parade’ of
Foreign Guests
A young “old friend” of
Hastings turned up unex­
pectedly in town last week.
She is Elisabeth Bernard of
Paris, France. Elisabeth
works in the Sprinkler De­
partment of 8IFLE, the
Viking Corporation's repre­
sentative in Paris. She spent
four months In Hastings in
the fall of IMO working for
Viking and living with the
Richard T. Groos family.
Elisabeth was quite surprised to arrive in Hastings
during Centennial Week
and was particularly amused
by all the beards. “C'est
magnifique,” she said. Her
trip, however, Is pretty much
all business since she will
be working with Viking per­
sonnel In Hastings, Chicago
and Montreal on Jobs for
Important French custom­
ers.
Elisabeth's visit is the lat­
est in an Impressive parade
of foreign representatives
that have come to Hastings
in the last year to confer
with Viking officials. The
group Includes two Austral­
ians, two New Zealanders, a
South African, a Mexican, a
Panamanlum, a Rpanlsrd
an Englishman and several
Canadians.

HASTINGS MOPE UNITED METHODIST CHUBCH

EHskery Csrnsrs Wesleyan

m 1881 tha United Brethren Church wgantestf the
Hastings Mtastan. Until 1888 services wore hold in vari­
ous rented hafls downtown and in the Adventist Church
at 503 E. Grand Street This building was similar to a
small school house and was purchased to 1887 for 8880.
(See rAHxw to HeadUghta). This faiiirfing was torn
down and tha prmrl church built to 19081 with an
auditortom, dining room and kitchen on one floor.
Then followed a discouraging ported of paying off
mortgages and a work lien, factory wages being 88 to
89 pes week.
In 1988 the ha asmant was excavated and the build­
ing remndeied The present parsonage was purchased
m 1935. This property project was a real challenge dur­
ing the depression years with only two of their members
steadily employed. Later the parsonage was remodeled
and a garage built. In 1963 the sanctuary was exten­
sively remodeled and new pews added.
During these years the merger with the Evangelical
Church was worked out and tn 1948 became final and
the church was then known as the Evangelical United
Brethren Church.
y
The Educational Building was built to 1969. with
three floors and this more than doubled the room ca­
pacity. The next few years wore largely spent to pro­
moting attendance and training personnel. Four busses
are running regular schedules at the present time and
the ftmAay School has more than doubled.
The church also has a strong Youth organisation.
Women's Society, very good musical program. The Men's
Teak Force for Calling, a library of nearly 1 JOO books
and an annual Vacation Btolo School since 1933. The
church has also fcad a strong evangelistic emphasis and
Bible Study program over the yean.
After yean of negottetions between ths Methodist
Church and ths Evangelical United Brethren Church
the Special General Conference of 1987 oocsuznated
their union under the name of the United Metho diet
Church. Thia later brought about now conference formattooa and to ,1989 ws became a part of the West
Michigan Conference of the United Methodist Church
and we chose to be- called the Hope United Methodist
Church of Hastings.
We are grateful to the many faithful pastors who
have &gt;d us and to the faithful leadership of the laRy
over ths years,—a great cloud of witneesM May we
always be found faithful in presenting the Gospel mes­
sage as the answer for our day.

Guest Editoral
The Roman philosopher Seneca. in an observaUon
about people, said: ’Theta are some who haw nothing
to prove their age except the number of their yean!"
Martin Luther King Jr„ shortly before his death,
expressed the same thought another way, when he
said:
The quality, not the longevity of one’s life is what
is ’ Important."
What Seneca and King said about persons can also
be said about communities. It is Centennial time in
HaaUDOi That calls for celebration. But is the celebra­
tion to be just for the one-hundred years at existence
—or to there something more to celebrate? Can we cele­
brate a heritage that made life better for all the gene­
rations that were bom, raised, provided, a livelihood,
and buried in our community through the years? Can
e celebrate a heritage founded upon high standards of
moral, ethical, and spiritual values expressed through
community life, taken from the Bible? Put another way,
has our communities' contribution to a better way of
life for her people been significant enough tn justify
our one-hundred years of existence as a community?
Centennial time is not only a time for gaiety and
light- heartedness. It is also a time to take our heritage
seriously—&lt; time to reflect with gratitude upon the
blood, sweat, and tears shed by our fortfathen who
forged our community out of the wilderness a hun­
dred yean ago. If our forefathers could know our com­
munity today, would they say, “I’m glad we made the
effort. Hastings is worth the sacrifice we made.'*
It la my prayerful concern that our “toast to our
heritage’* may include more than top hats and beards,
and granny dresses and bonndte; may it include a seri­
ous reflection on and personal commitment to the moral
and spiritual values found in the Bible, which are es­
sential to the well-being of any community, and without
which the community is Impoverished and on the road
to moral and spiritual decay. To have existed one-hun­

dred years as a community is a sign of the gracious
love of God. It does not necessarily mean that God has
approved of our way of life. It may be more an indica­
tion of the patient and longsuffering qualities of God’s
character.
Our celebration, if it is not to be shallow and mean­
ingless. must include a spirit of reverent and holy wor­
ship of the gracious God who has given us more than
the "threescore and ten" to live. There will be a “cele­
bration" in your church next Bunday—a “celebration"
of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead! Win
you be there to "celebrate?” God has foretold the fu­
ture of Hastings if we tail to “celebrate New Life in
His Son." His Word reads:
"For the Lord your God to bringing you into a good
tadd, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and
sjwings, flowing forth in valleys and hills, a land of
wheat and barley-" a land in which you will cat bread
without scarcity, in which you will lack nothing, a land
"hose stones are iron, and out of whose hills you can
dig copper. And you shall eat and be full, and you shall
teees the Lord your God for the good land he tea given
you.
Take teed lest you forget the Lord your God, by
not keeping his commandments and his nrdlrwnrew and
his statutes, which I command you this day; when you
have eaten and are full, and have bulK goodly houses
and live in them, and when your herds and flocks
multdpiy, and your silver and gold is multipiled, and all
that you have is multiplied, then your heart be lifted
up, and you forget the Lord your God—"Beware lest
you say in your heart, My power and the might of my
tend have gotten me this wealth.* You shall remember
the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you power
to get wealth—"And if you forget the Lord your God
and go after other Gods and serve them and worship
them, I solemnly warn you this day that you win sure­
ly perish.** (Deuteronomy 8).

�Lakewood to Vote on 2
Proposals on June 14th
The Lakewood Board of Education decided Thurs­
day evening, May BO, to go back to the voters on June
14th with two ballots for operational millage. One pro­
posal would renew the expiring 9 mUb for three years.
A second proposal would provide the required 2.7 mills
to maintain the present educational program but
would be voted for only one year.
The board Indicated that renewing only the 9 mills
would necessitate an austerity budget or considerable
deficit spending that would require higher millages in
the future.
Supt. William Eckstrom Indicated ttet the district
can no longer continue its present educational program
on nine mills. As an example he explained that the
new free textbook ruling costs a conservative .7 of a
mill per year. This cost for the current year and coming
year requires 1.4 mills of the 2.7 additional being re­
quested. Uss of some of ths general fund balance is
expected to maintain the present curriculum even with
the X7 mills.
Asking for the miHage increase for only one year
will provide funds for the 1971-72 school year while
the State legislature decides how schools will be finan­
ced in the future, Eckstrom said.
Also to be voted on at the June 14th election is an
additional three-fourths mill for the Ionia Intermediate
District to maintain special education services to schools.
Voters will elect two members to the Board of Edu­
cation as well Candidates are Tom Cramer, Lawrence
Smith and Charles Cbppess.

Nurses' Lecture

-

Adult ‘Tells It As It Is* at
Graduation Ceremony
The following speech was written and recited by
Mrs. Diana Miner, one of the adults who graduated
with the Lakewood, Hastings and Maple Valley Adult
Graduation Cttsa of 1971. Mrs. Miller gave thia speech
to give for the student address in the graduation cere­
monies:
Honorable platform guests and friends in the audi­
ence, we sincerely thank you for being here tonight.
I think the majority of us felt very ridiculous and
very ill at ease that first night we returned to school.
But our fears and apprehensions soon dissolved when
we realized that everyone — fanners, housewives, shop­
workers and even teachers were here for the very same
purpose—to learn. Each and everyone of us had some­
thing special to contribute to others—special whether
it was knowledge, laughter, or just a good listening ear.
Everyone helped to make it as successful a year as it
was. There wasn't anyone above or below anyone else.
There are several reasons why we decided to return
to school. Some returned so they might go on to higher
learning. Borne returned to fulfill a promise to a loved
one. Others returned because they fett lacking as ;a
human being. BtiU others returned for the simple rea­
son of getting a night out, away from home and the
responsibilities therein. . . . These are the people who
have changed more than anyone else.
During the past year we have learned not only the
required curriculum but much more. We have learned
more about others and ourselves, about our society and
our government.
This year has been filled with a mountain of work,
but its also meant going to the theatre and learning
the practical side of English. It's meant 'having the
class sometimes laugh so hard that Mrs. Brown had
difficulty teaching it
It's meant frantically trying to scribble down all of
Mr. Brown's History notes, and thinking your fingers
would drop off.
Mrs. Brown, our English teacher, and Mr. Brown,
our History teacher, were a husband and wife teaching
team; and a tremendous asset to their profession.
Their humor, determination, and tact made learning
not only a challenge, but also very interesting.
This year has meant having Mr. Johnston do every­
thing but stand on his head to make us understand
government, and then answering his questions with a
feeble 'I dont know.' If only he knew that because of
him I will never again be an indifferent citizen, and
come this June, I will be one of those who will vote for
a millage increase. We deprived ourselves educationally
and voluntarily some years ago but PLEASE let's not
deprive our children now.
This year has meant slaving over a piece of day on
a wheel in Mr. Lambert's ceramic claaa Then just as
It begins to take form see it fly through the air and
land at his feet.
ItX meant having a school director such as Mr.
Storey who has always made time for each and every­
one of us, and who's always made us feel welcome and
Important. I know that the students from Hastings and
Maple Valley fed the same way about their instructors
too.
Many of us have changed from apathetic citizens to
enthustiastic voters. These people realizing for the first
time that they can no longer depend upon others to
make thia a better world. They've realised that they
too must become involved and do their part to make
their government, their society, and their schools what
they want or believe it can be.
When I look over this past year I can't help but
think of some of the words to the song "To Dream The
Impossible Dream.”
"
Many of ua had no longer even dared to dream be­
cause we knew that Chose dreams could never be real­

ized. People like us had to settle for what we had.
We've been fighting an invisible enemy ever since
we left school. The strange thing we learned was that
thia foe was oureelvca, because of a lack of education.
We have had so many goals In life and we’d always
fall short of them. Each time we'd reset those goals
we'd only tall short again. Repeatedly we'd fall to
dream to gain victory and to succeed.
I realise that tn many people graduating from high
school la very insignificant, but to me it is essential.
It has changed my entire life. I feel happier and more
full filled then ever before. For the first time In my life
I feel a part of this world, and not just someone living
in It. I've gained a new confidence In myself and in
my abilities
Before you is a large group of people who were once
classified as failures. We refuse to be put tn that cate­
gory any longer. We have many new goals in life, and
many obstacles to get around. But we will get around
them—or use them to get to an even greater goal.
We have taken a large step forward and we now
Dare to dream the impossible dream. We can beat and
have beaten an unbeatable foe. We can reach the un­
reachable goal. This Is our quest.

State Moves to Collect
More Child Support Money
More grants to help prosecuting attorneys and "friends
of the court collect overdue child support payments In
welfare cases were announced by the Michigan Depart­
ment of Social Services.
The money will be used to hire additional staff to
locate missing parents and enforce existing court orders
which have not been followed up because of manpower
shortages. Court action will also be taken to secure new
child support orders and to legally establish paternity.
The latest grants are to prosecuting attorneys' of­
fices in Saginaw. Schoolcraft, Midland. Barry, Luce.
Muskegon. Jackson. Calhoun and Shiawassee Counties.
• R. Bernard Houston, director of the Michigan De­
partment of Social Services, stated that the purpose of
the program is to insure that children are supported
by their parents rather than by the taxpayers. The de­
partment speculates that for every $1 invested in the
program, taxpayers may save 52 or 53 which would

otherwise be paid in Aid to Dependent Children cases
where the father has not ben making adequate child
support payments.
The expanded prosecuting attorney and friend of
the court staffs will also assist Social Services in other
matters, such m representing the department at hear­
ings and Investigating alleged fraud in public assistance
Michigan is the first state to use Federal funds re­
cently made available for such activity. The Federal
government will assume part of the coat of the 51 mil­
lion State-wide program, and the Michigan Legislature
has appropriated funds for the State's share of the pro­
gram—up to 50 percent of the cost
Social Services officials expect that the enlarged
staffs will enable prosecutors and friends of the court
to act more rapidly on requests for action in child sup­
port cases. This, they say. should encourage more co­
operation by ADC mothers who may have been discour­
aged from seeking legal action by the slowness of child
support enforcement and by frequent referrals from
one office to another.'

POLITICAL PLOY
By Jacqueline Battiste
When I die
Stodgy politicians
Will gather and wonder
Whether I’m really dead
Or just causing trouble.

You Are Just The Same To Me
Oh the moon was bright the stars were shining, the
night was cairn and fair
As we sat there in the moon light. I stroked your
auburn hair
The crickets sang as the stars grew brighter, as I
held your hand Ln mine.
As I told you how I loved you, and you promised to
be mine
Oh the years have flown my darling, now there is
silver In your hair
But the moon shines on my darling, and the stars
are Just as fair ,
As we sit her in the glooming. I will stroke your
silvery hair
I will hold you close my darling, then I will whisper
tenderly
That I love you oh my darling, that you are Just
the same to me.'’

Sensational Centennial Ladies
During the Centennial Week, Thursday, June 3rd, was
Ladies' Day, with Mrs. Jack Wood general chairman.
Weather-wise and every-wise it was a delightful success.
Mrs. Nolan Gutchess was in charge of the Art Show
for that day on the Courthouse lawn. There were many
exhibitors in many classifications,------ paintings, sculpt­
ing, ceramics, etc.------ and many prizes were awarded
those who were judged to be the winners. That list
appears elsewhere in this issue.
(The dally extensive and unusually attractive and
effective Gorden Club exhibit at the Hospitality Center
at the National Bank Community Room had special
floral arrangements for Ladies' Day. The Band Concert
and Ice Cream Social at the American Legion Hall com­
pleted the day.)
More than three hundred ladles, in Centennial attire,
enjoyed luncheon in the Episcopal Parish House, from
11:30 am. until 1:30 pm., as guests of Leonard-Osgood
Funeral Home. The Parish House had been beautifully
decorated with the Centennial theme and as one guest
remarked, "It’s really a dream." A public •‘THANK-YOU"
Is herewith expressed, to the hospitable hosts, in adding
so much to the pleasure of this day.
In the afternoon the Hastings Women's Club spon­
sored a Centennial style show, "Fashions of the Century."
at Leason Sharpe Memorial Hall, where the authentic
stage setting had been created by Mrs. Jack Walton. She
also served as a consultant for this event and modeled
a duplicated gown of authentic style which she intends
to give to Charlton Park for future display when man­
nequins will be used in developing Indian Landing Vil­
lage.
This event, attended by nearly four hundred ladies,
was beautifully narrated by beautiful Mrs. William Kirk­
patrick.
It is Impossible to report all of the gowns seen, and
those who wore them, however, much of history wa-»
closely related to many of the exquisite garments dis­
played from earlier days, adding to the interest and
significance of the entire style show.
The card file used by Mrs. Kirkpatrick, as she intro­
duced each model, with all of the pertinent historic notes
of information is now at Chariton Park for reference.
Needless to say the afternoon was one of the Interest­
ing, fasqjAtlng, and fun, highlights of the Centennial
Celebration. The only regret was that every lady in the
Hastings Area Community couldn't have been there tod,
to share a look al the' past, that began in the early
eighteen hund.eds and finished with fashions of today.
Curiously enough, many contemporary styles date back
to the pioneer days, which was convenient for some, if
they didn't sew, however, that current style did not
conclude the showing------ it was the "hot pants," with or
without a skirt, and high boots. Katie, it was a great day!

10,000 View Hastings
Longest, Greatest Parade
Words of praise for Saturday's Centennial Parade
are still coming in. For more than two hours young and
old alike stood In B3 degree heat and applauded as
nearly 140 units passed in review.
The parade, under the direction of Arthur Steward
Jr., was the longest and greatest parade ever seen in
the city of Hastings. Chief ot Police Richard Sunior
estimated the crowd at 10,000.
But the Centennial Parade was only the frosting on
the "Centennial cake"—Hastings’ 100th birthday party
was one successful event after another from the ban­
quet to the Centennial Ball, Picnic and Balloon Ascen­
tion, right up to the official six-day official Centennial
observance last week.
AU in all it was a big job for the Centennial Com­
mittee—and it's not over yet. There are still a myriad
of details to wrap-up.
The Centennial Committee worked since last Oc­
tober on the project. When the civic group Incorporated
they stated that any profits that might result from the
Centennial would be plowed back into some sort of a
lasting community project.
More Important than the financial aspect, however,
were the other intended goals: getting people working,
participating and having fun together; emphasizing
pride in our city and in ourselves; giving our children
an appreciation of their heritage; and getting all ele­
ments of the community heavily Involved in one positive
project which hopefully will have lasting benefits.
Virtually every club, church, service organization,
school, business and Industry was involved in one way or
another with hundreds of individuals also giving freely
of their time. Monetary contributions were also made by
many and there is to be one additional project coming
in the near future, namely the publishing of a Centen­
nial Book.
“Centennial Patrons" and advertisers are needed to
make publishing of the book possible according to Chas.
Harthy who is in charge of this project. The compiling
of material for the book has been going on for several
weeks.
Also coming up within the next several weeks will be
the burring of the Time Capsule, a small vault within
which
be placed momentos of the Centennial cele­
bration sir well as letters to children or grandchildren.
Instructions will be given to dig up the Time Capsule
In the year 1996—25 years hence. Individuals wishing to
place something in the'Time Capsule may place a letter
in a No. Ilk size envelope for ^1. Leave letter at either
The Banner office or WBCH. ’
.
Unfortunately only a small portioh of the Centennial*

Plates ordered by the committee were available for sale
last week. The conuniOe 4&gt; still taking orders at $250
per plate. A few other souvenir items such as bronze and
aluminum coins, ties. Brother of the Brush. Shavers
Permit and Peddler buttons are still available for sou­
venirs, while the supply lasts.
Interested people should contact General Chairman
H. F. Ritchie, 628 East Grant Street, Hastings. Please
enclose a self-addressed stamped envelope when making
inquiries.

�— EDITORIAL —
R. M,

L-n-^

A special salute to the Barry County High School
Graduates of 1971. Never discount that diploma you have
been awarded. It is an Important document and with the
Improved educational standards of today, Is a mark of
real accomplishment. Maybe It won’t open all the doors
you would like to have opened, but lack of it would put
you at a real disadvantage In competition for worthwhile
job opportunities today. It does take more than a modi­
cum of determination and persistence to keep going through
four years of high school training. For that, you merit a
"well done," whether you finished along with the top ten
or just under the wire. The point is, you did keep going and
made the grade.
•
•
•
For tlje opportunity to qualify for a diploma, all of you
owe your respective communities substantial appreciation
for providing the schools and faculties that liave made
quality education possible. This has been accomplished
because people In this county, or at least a majority of
them, are sufficiently concerned with the value and im­
portance of public education to vote for an increase in their
own taxes to provide the rather considerable funds needed
to meet the coat requirements of sound educational pro­
grams.

.
•

•

•

So, congratulations for work well done. Good luck to all of
you and may the years ahead bring happiness, content­
ment and the satisfaction of a full and useful life.

In our opinion, the Top Brass of the TV industry,
Including some of the big name newscasters, arc a bunch
of “cry babies." They can dish it out, but are too thin
skinned to “take it."
'

•

•

•

Criticism from outside the media is usually classified
as a violent and unfair attack on th*freedom of the press.
This tendency was lifted to absurd heights by none other
than Walter Cronkite when-he accused the Nixon Adminis­
tration of a •grand conspiracy to destroy the credibility
of the press."
That, of course, Is ridiculous. The same Constitutional
guarantees that insure the right of the members of the
media to "speak out," also guarantees ti^e same right to
individuals—whether they be private cltixebs or In govern­
ment posts. Neither the right to criticise nor the right to
answer criticism are the exclusive property of the media,
although the media top brass appears to think otherwise.
•
•
•
’ -- Apparently, however, the media can criticize, Itself,
without danger of recrimination. Listen to this:
“The press—and by that generic term I mean all of the
reporting media—has not been without its sins in Vietnam.
As the military has more than once complained, we have
indeed, taken Individual squad or platoon actions out of
context and blown them up to appear to be the story of an
entire battle—an error which can seriously mislead the
public as to the nature of victory ar defeat”
That is as harsh a criticism as has ever been made by
Spiro Agnew or President Nixon.
Actually, however, those words were spoken by Walter
Cronkite in an address before the Association of Industrial
Advertisers in New York City. As a result of that self
appraisal, none of the media top brass has accused Mr.
Cronkite of entering into "a grand conspiracy to destroy the
credibility of the press."
•
•
•
What if Vice-President Agnew had come out with words
to the effect that: “The inherent limitations of our media
(TV) make it a powerful means of communication, but
also a crude one which tends to strike at the emotions
rather than the Intellect • • • This means a dangerous
and Increasing concentration on action which is usually
violent and bloody rather than on thought; on happenings
rather than issues; on shock rather than explanation; on
personalisation rather than ideas • • • Our broadcasts
have not Improved. If anything they have declined. The
tube has become a trip, a national opiate, a baby sitter
who charges nothing, something to Iron by and to shave
to and to dose over."
.
Since the above words were actually uttered by Roger
Mudd, Washington correspondent for one of the big tele­
vision chains, no accusations were made, The sanctity of
the media was not considered to have been imperiled.

Undoubtedly Joseph P. Lyford, professor of journalism
at tl^pnlversity of California expressed an opinion which
man^&gt;pople hold when he said: “Today television is relay­
ing versions of agfbup theater • • • The script has‘con­
cerned Itself with proclamations and ultimata rather than
questions. The language is loud and verbose and increas­
ingly aimed at destruction rather than the restoration of
dialogue • • • Time given by television and the press to
the staged event (demonstrations and marches, for example
—Ed.) is time taken away from reporting the iiappenlngs
that are not contrived • • • If the day comes when tele­
vision is freed from its dependence on what this or that
angry crowd is doing, we will get a very different perspec­
tive on what Is going on inside this country and inside our
heads."
Many of us will utter a fervent “amen” to that!
Walter Cronkite to the contrary, notwithstanding, neither

4

THE HASTINGS BANNER—

the Nixon Administration, nor anyone connected with it,
nor any private citizen is a part of any “grand conspiracy
to destroy the credibility of the press.” What all of us
want from TV—in fact, from all the media—is better bal­
anced reporting—leas sensatlcsi and greater accuracy—In
brief, a better overall picture of what Is really happening
from day to day. There should be other things than crime,
violence, murder, staged protests, etc., that deserve headline
attention In this great nation of ours.
•
•
•

It is a hopeful sign that many distinguished members
of the media admit there is room for improvement—and in
this they are'in substantial agreement with statements that
Vice-President ytgnew has seen fit to make. Let us hope
that, from j^source or the other, improvements may be
forthcoming.

To the Editors:
Many needy children will benefit from the service
recently given by the Key Club of Hastings High

These fine young men worked hard to earn MOO
they contributed to the Children’s Emergency Fund.
This money will buy medicines, medical and dental
care, or food and clothing for disadvantaged children.
Hats off to the Key Club and Kelly Kidder, their

I am gUri to see that the truth about our so called
town has finally come out I think that its now time
to shed some light on our celebrated telephone company.
The rates for telephone Installation are outrageous.
Many times customers are supplied with second hand
phones that should have been thrown away yean ago.
Customers are also charged- extra for color phones even
though there are only a few in stock. Most people wind
up with something other than what they wanted.
Dialing to Battie Creek or Kalamazoo can be diffi­
cult and sometimes impossible.
Rick Baker, R1 Delton
--------------- HB—-----------To the Editor:
I wish to comment on the critical letters on the vil­
lage of Delton. The last tetter said they wanted to com­
mend the editor for having the courage and guts to
print the letters of the previous week. I notice that Che
writers of both letters did not muster enough of both
ingredients and sign his own name. Why hide behind
the brave editor?
I, and a few other Deltoultea have decided to offer
the muscle it takes to help the two citizens put all the
possessions they have on a van and help them leave
this bad place. Moot of us like the no curb— no sewer,
and the double parking on a State trunk line. You just
cant find that kind of easy living much any more, and
that Is just why we are here, The hoods they spoke
of are our own. and you will find a few of them any­
where there are people.’’
The police do as well as the people allow them to do.
Why must either writer wait to get out?, feeling the
way they do is doing no one a bit of good and is not
contributing to the slow easy pace we like here in Del­
ton and I would like to see them find a spot more be­
lievable, and to the pace they want.
Signed, A Satisfied Citisen,
Mrs. Ann Yeakel
---------------- HB---------------Ta the Editor:
This letter comes in response to the letter from “A
Citisen" (?) concerning our town of Delton which ap­
peared in the May 28th issue of The Banner
“A Citisen” appears to perhaps be a newcomer to
our town, because from his letter it looks like Delton
is a trash heap, I wonder —do you live in town or just'
ride through?
It is true Delton is not Incorporated, however, we
don’t have to pay city taxes, or pay for water and sew­
age privileges. In our opinion Delton is an average small
town with average classed people who are friendly and
honest. The people with money move to the lakes or
outside of town and work in the bigger cities around to
get away from paying taxes. We feel “A Citizen" is just
such a person who wants small town privileges and big
city luxuries.
•
.
Any person'who has lived In Delton in the past few
years can see the progress Delton is making, and* all
done voluntarily by honest, hard-working concerned
people, both businessmen and groups.
To point out just a few improvements — (1) A while
back a group of citizens voluntarily cleared a plot of
land bordering on M-43 and built a small roadside park,
credit goes to the Methodist Church. (2) Lloyd Hoff­
man turned his field just outside of town into a beauti­
fully cared-for ball diamond. (3) Our local junk dealer,
Daniel’s Used Cars, has removed all his old cars, taken
down a worthless building and is replacing it with a
new building which is going to be a credit to Delton.
(4) Our local Druggist, Mr. and Mrs. Rickert, are tear­
ing down their old building on the comer of M-43 and
Maple St. to make a parking lot, another credit to Del­
ton. (5) A beautiful new Bank with parking facilities.

Wednesday. J(me 9. 1971

These are just a few of the projects in Delton In Just the
last few months. The Volunteer Firemen of BPH are
also a group to be complimented, in case you didn’t know
our nice Fire Station was built by Volunteer Firemen.
Concerning the remark about the "Town Bosses". We
have been in Delton for nine years and we don’t know
of any ’Town Bosses" only really concerned citizens who
are helping to make Delton grow instead of dying.
In regards to the remark about no police, we have a
very fine policeman, Deputy Larry Gay, who works long,
hard hours and who has done a fine job. If you have
lived here for any length of time you will know it to be
a fact. We believe he deserves a big round of applause
for taking on an almost impossible job for one man.
Granted our town has its rowdies, just like any other
town, perhaps a few more now than In yean past as
new people move In from the bigger cities to get away
from the racial problems in schools there.
Delton Is a small farming community which we are
proud to say Is our town.

pieces of equipment with little or no charge.
We also appreciate the fact that the National Bank

large for the let. As a result we ended up on the Court

Also, thanks to WBCH for all the spots which helped
to direct people in our direction, and to the Barry

LIFE IB AN ADVENTURE
Life is a new and different experience each day you
live it. It Is as simple as tying a shoe or as difficult and
complicated as an algebraic equation. It Is one series
of ups and downs after another.
Some days advance without any problems confront­
ing you while on other days, nothing seems to go as it
should. This difference, I feel, is largely due to the
moods and attitudes of a person on the particular day.
But this is also what makes life both Interesting and
exciting. Each day is a new experience emotionally as
well as it is mentally.
Each person lead a strangely different life from
anyone else, so no one can truly tell how someone else
feels. Therefore when you say something you never know
how someone else will react to it.
Yes, indeed life is an adventure shared by all, both
human and animal. Enjoy it for we only life once and
before you-know it. It wfll b^over.

There were all kinds of
parties, for all age groups,
over the June 5-6 weekend,
including several in con­
nection with the 50th and
26th HJIB. das* reunions
before and after the an­
nual Alumni Banquet. (Sto­
ry elsewhere in this issue.)
Saturday
Vicki
Hurley
had a Slumber? party for
her friends and they all
agreed it was a grand way
to finish a school year.
The Slumber party at
Jo Ellen Millen had to be
cancelled and these things
happen Ln the best of regu­
lated plans.
The Jack Allerdings Jr.
hosted an Open House at
various series of party hours
at their home on N. Hill­
crest Saturday night. The
handmade invitations were
clever and naturally most
inviting.
Sunday afternoon, June
6th, the Robert Shumway* &gt;
entertained
relatives
and
friends in honor of their
daughter, Jan Shumway, a
H.HB, graduate this month.

By unanimous agreement
the new rock club chose to
use the name Barry County
Rock Club at the regular
meeting June 3.
The theme of the evening
was the Petoskey stone—the
state stone of Michigan.
Members were shown simple
ways to cut and polish the
popular rock and viewed
different examples of how
it was used. •
/ Lansing Gilbert gave a
brief talk on the geology of
the Petoskey stone and told
how it was formed from
coral deposits in an ancient
sea that once covered lower
Michigan. Uses from deco­
rative
arrangements
and
jewelry to floors and walks
were discussed.
A member show-and-tell
session brought forth rocks
from points as far away as
Hawaii, New Zealand and
California. Each session a
chance Is given for mem­
bers to show off finds and
try to get them identified.
Plans were discussed for
an
early
evening
picnic
meeting July 8 and a pos­
sible field trip to Bellevue
to the limestone quarry on
June -10.
People attending the club
for the first time this year
were Mr. and Mrs. Arthur
Lathrop. Miss Joan Phelps,
Mr. and Mrs. Roman Feldpausch and Mrs. Don Fish­
er. Mr. Lathrop was sport­
ing a new rock bow tie he
has designed and has been
making.
Rock enthusiasts are In­
vited to participate In these
informal club programs. For
Information
about events
and programs they should
call Lansing Gilbert. Wl 5­

Hastings High athletic fans, mostly parents,
turned out Tuesday evening, June 1, to honor more
than 110 boys who participated in Spring sports on
the hilltbp. It was the final appearance of Ray Shank
as a Blue &amp; Gold coach. Shank is leaving coaching and
will be the head librarian.
Coach Shank, who has been head track coach for
the past five years, and has been on the HHS foot­
ball
will be out of ath­
letics fpr the first time since
leaving college.
“I'm going to miss coach­
ing,” Shank said. •‘Coaching is
a tremendously rewarding
thing.” He added that his track
team this past season was one
of the finest "I’ve worked with.”
He didn’t mean because of the
team's record, but because of
the mental attitude of the
boys. Coach Shank recalled
that while the team did beat
Ionia soundly, that was about
Its only success, although the
Saxons were trounced only by
Grand Ledge and Waverly.
The 880 relay team did win
a regional championship, but
didn't come through In the
league tournament
Coach Shank said he'll miss
coaching. We will miss him, too.

How, a Chrysler priced
*112' less than a Chrysler.
Royal.
Every inch a Chryrier. Wt with Royal,
the deal darts t112 less than Newport,
previously our lowest-priced series.

Royal also gives you a better suspension
system: torsion bars instead of coil springs.
The ride is firmer. More controlled.

The Royal Is just as big as our most lux­
urious New Yorker. And bigger than Its com­
petition — Buick LeSabre and Olds Delta 88.
Outside and In.
Royal's 360 V-8 delivers more power, too.
Power for freeway cruising without
strain. Power for safe
passing. All on
regular gas.

Outside of Chrysler products, only two
American cars have torsion bars — Cadillac
Eldorado and Oldsmobile Toronado.
Another difference: Royal's body Is
welded Into a single solid Unibody. It's the
strongest way to build a car. And there are
no body bolts to work free and rattle.
Buick and Olds use the old body-boltedto-frame technique.

A Chryder priced to introduce
you to Chryder
Yet for all this extra value, Royal is priced
just about the same as LeSabre and Delta 68.
Royal. With everything you expect of a
Chrysler. At a price you don’t.

The 1970 debt levy was 52 mills and 16 mills for
operational purposes. The 1969 debt levy was 5.65 mills
for debt on the 1963 bond issue, and in 1968 the bond
debt levy was 62 mills. The estimated cost of the 8400,-

sessed valuation. This additional 1.9 mils would place
the total bond debt levy at an amount similar to that
paid In 1968. During the years 1963 through 1968 the
bond debt levy was either 620 mills or 621 mills. The
following is a comparison of millage being levied In

CHURCH OF THE WEEK
THE BRETHREN’CHRISTIAN PARISH

It was in the Spring of 1873 that a meeting of the
early Brethren settlers in the community of Woodland
was called. The people met at the home of Isaac Smith,
later the Owen Smith and now the Roger Flanigan farm.
It was here on that date the Woodland Church of the
Brethren was organised. This congregational territory
was large — comprising of about five counties. These
settlers had come from Ohio —(a number of them as
early as 1868.
Preaching services were held alternately in the Old
Brick schoolhiuse, on the Woodland-Castleton township
line, and the Galloway schoolhouse, one mile east of
Wocdland. Love Feasts were held in the bams of the
members, of the congregation.
In 1875 on the present church lot, a frame building
Grace Wesleyan
\
was erected. In 1887, the building being too small, an
addition was made, and again in 1907 it was remodeled

ity and there are presently 58 participating members.
Among the pastors who have served are: Fay C. Wing,
Earl Sense and Terry Van Heyningan.
Beginning in the Fall of 1964 the Coats Grove
Christian Church began in a cooperative Pastoral ar­
rangement with the Woodland Church of the Brethren.
Charles Gibbs served until June of 1967 in this capacity,
preaching in both churches each Sunday.
In September 1967, J. Ira Metxker was called to
serve in this capacity continuing the two worship hours
and church schools. Beginning early in 1968 we began
more seriously to seek ways In which we could work In
a cooperative way. Then with the coming of a new
church school curriculum, September 1, 1969, we began
our joint church school and worship program and at
this time we meet for three months In one church and
then go to the other for the same period of time. We
are now known as the Brethren Christian Parish.
The two denominations are discovering a ‘oneness’
in our Christian felllwshlp and continue to explore ways
in which we can serve the Lord and our community as
one fellowship.
We Invite those without a church home as well as
our visitors to come worship with us as we continually
are seeking a fresh Breath of God's Spirit to empower
us to go forth in the work for Christ among all age
groups.

—THS HASTINGS BANNXR

35

�By H. D. Bnrpot
Our first Methodist Church wm built in the year,
IBM and burned down in 1906. The present Methodist
Church was built the same year on the same location.
Rev Ostrom was the pastor at that Ume.
Charles Gleason, who lived on the same land where
Don Quick now lives, started the first shoe atop. Mark
Skillman started the first livery barn on the location at
Bill Smith's Implement business. Then my dad and
uncle by marriage, Add Burpee and Orin- Dayton owned
and ran Che livery barn next after Skillman. They also
did the draylng around town. My dad had a big team
of white horses (old Don and Fred). He had a standing
contract to deliver all the freight from the depot,
which set where Dr. Hogan's office now is, to the dif­
ferent business places around town. He drayed most of
the lumber from the lumber yard to the builders of the
first cottages built at Wan Lake, Crooked Lake and to
the north end of Gull Lake. He moved the household
goods for many people from DeHon to Kalamasoo and
other places aa well as going after goods In such places
and moving them to Delton. He has driven many
■ traveling men" as they were called those days. Today
they would be called salesmen or representatives. For
Instance a man representing a wholesale grocery bouse
in Kahmatoo would come in on the morning train, work
the stores here in Delton, and then hire my dad to
drive him in a horse and buggy to Hickory Comers,
Bonfield, Dowling, Lacey and the different towns that
never knew what It was to have a railroad. They would
often be gone for two days or more. On Leap Year, Feb.
29, 1904, they sold the livery business to Pete Houvenir,
who just recently passed away in his 90's. Pete sold to
Hoctzel, who lived where Lois Flower does now. Hoet­
ael sold to George Whittemore and that was the end
of the livery business.
The first weekly newspaper was called "The Barry
County Graphic" and was published by Guy Higgins,
who later moved the business to Prairieville. This paper
was also called the "O-Press." Mel Gwin, at one time,
ran a paper here too.
The apple dryer was one of Delton's first industries,
and set In back of where Mrs. Lottie McBain lives now.
At one time they employed 12 people. It was owned and
operated by George Frances and later by Engert
Brothers.
Dr. Scribner was the first doctor here. He was a
homeopathic physician. He built and lived where Gor­
don Chamberlain used to live on the street named after
him. He was present when I was born (although I don't
remember it) as well as when my brother Floyd was
born next door to where I live now in'the Bradfield
house. I was born in the Swathwood bouse, across the

corner from the Methodist parsonage. Dr. Scriboer -lo­
cated in Delton in 1890 and died very suddenly. His fu­
neral was held at 8 am. In the morning. July 5, 1904. I
believe, so his body could be taken to the 10 o’clock train
to Kalamasoo and then to Kendal, Ms old home town,
for burial. The Delton Military Band led the proces­
sion from the house to the' depot. He was an uncle of
our old mall carrier. Bob Barnes.
Doctors since Scribner were Harter, CTOas, Robin­
son. Bernard. Thomas, Farwell, Heitman, Laman, Shed­
lock. Hippie and our present Dr. Hogan.
Dr. Morford was cur first Veterinarian, and started
business to 1915. Later Dr. Loyal Rower also was here
in the name capacity.
In the year, 1901 our first lumber and coal yard was
built and operated by William Chase and later by J. D.
Murdock and Company, and then by Mr. Boyes, Carl
and Uoyd Reese, and then the present owners.
Frank Bishop, a carpenter who built many of the
first homes here In Delton, built and lived in the pre­
sent Williams Funeral home. The Delton Military Band
was organised and led by Roy McBain to 1903 and
their firot public appearance was at the wedding of
Fred Oftwon at the Methodist Parsonage. Rev. Brownell
was Che pastor.
About the year, 1902, while Frank Adams Sr. (Bob
Adams 8r*s granddad) was postmaster our first rural
routes were started. Lacy Jones, Harry Jones, and
George Mosier were the flrot mail carriers. Later, John
McBain, Lincoln Bush, Vern Loomis. Seth Clark and
John Chamberlain were well-known carriers, and jiwt
before the present carriers were Mark Garrison. Bob
Barnes, and Russell Mott, who ail retired the same year
and at the same time.
A$ I was down talking to Oscar Ftokbelner some
time ago where he was working on a new fertilizer
warehouse, I looked up and recalled one business that
I had forgotten about and that was the old stockyards.
They were on the railroad in back of the Lumber-yard
and about back of where Higdon's Leonard Service is
tow.
They shipped stock just about every Saturday as I
remember it. They had their scales there and It was
quite a place for sight-seeing for the town kids and the
old retired farmers living in town In their last days
with nothing else to do.
When I was a kid, I remember that most of the
stock was shipped to Buffalo, and I*U bet If we actually
knew bow many bead of hogs, cattle and sheep have
left there for their last ride, the figure would be stag­
gering.
I can remember top distinctly one time when Ed.
Siloock brought In a%oupie load of wild horses from

out west and they were auctioned off to the local
fanners. It was as good as having "Buffalo Bfll" come
to town. I remember one horse in particular was exeetrtonaMy wild and broke down the fence by throwing

tantrums. But some fanners took great pride in buy­
ing such a horse and subduing it. My dad would have
enjoyed that himself, Gariey Pease bought this realty
wild hoc— and the last I saw of Mm, Gariey and a
half doaen men following Mm were lending the horse
east to Oarley's farm.

Btudents attending Che Hastings are* school* probably
took better care of their "free" books during this past
year than when' their parents had to purchase them out­
right, it was indicated at the June 8 regular meeting of
the Board cf Education.
Supt. Richxrd J. Guenther submitted reports from the
principals which showed very little loss or damage to the
books. And more than 13,00 books were in students’ hands.
Na Deposit Needed
Supt. Guenther declared that the student* obviously
showed a great deal of consideration for the school's
property, and recontHfended that no action on requiring
a deposit from Individual student* be taken aL this time
“Were well pleased with the manner in which lifts,
program has been accepted, and I think It is a trem­
endous compliment to the kids and their parents." Supt.
Guesther added.
Supt. Guentrer said that al Central Elementary. 2,642
books were loaned, 11 were misused and four loot. Books
which show abnormal wear, or are tost, result tn a bill in
proportion to the loss being sent to the parents.
Still Pay For Damage
At Southeastern, damage to reven books was estimated
at 37.50. four loet books at 36-25 and 38.15 had already
been collected.
.
Junior High issued 1,900 text books. At the end of
the school term 37 had been lost with a value of 887.90
and 22 had depreciated excessively with a value of 860.65,
Principal Kenneth Robbe reported. Parents have been
billed and so far 849.10 bad been received.
Northeastern Issued 1,200 books. None were loet and
37 were discarded because of normal use. Principal Jack
Hoke said, “From the figures it would appear that the
students and parents are making an honert attempt to
cooperate with the school in keeping the expenses at a
.minimum "
Record Good At High School
High School Principal Robert VanderVeen said that
out of 6,000 books issued, about 100 were lost but by the
time the lookers are all cleaned out, the number missing
might be reduced to 50. Parents of children who failed to
turn in books, or had volumes excessively damaged, will
get bills.
'
Theodore Tack reported that the free text book ser­
vice worked well at Pleasantvtew. “We collected for four
books, one family lost a few books in a fire, and two were
lost for which we are hoping to collect. We dl^xned of
23 books which were worn out, but had enough on hand
to replace them. I think the children take belter care
of their books when they have to pay for them, he said.
Before Che board meeting opened last week, members
and others inspected the music rooms In the junior high
building, which had been paneled by the regular custo­
dial staff. The rooms look better than when the high
school additions were opened In 1955, Guenther remarked.
Central ‘ Purchasing Cheaper
Robert Miller reported to the board that the district,
by joining with Calhoun Intermediate and about 20
other districts, saved an estimated 32,800 on the purchas of some small items, and would save even more
in the future. He added that the plan is to get a central
warehouse for the program. The cost would be shared
by the units utilizing it.
Robert Gresehoever, a Farmigton High and M8U
graduate, was hired as a junior high science teacher He
was one of 41 applicants for the poet.
Supt. Guenther reported that the junior high library
will remain where it is.
The home built this past year by the Building Trades
Class has been appraised at 327.000, and at 327,500. and
is for sale, he eald. The school has about 321,000 invested
In the house, plus the cost of Instructional supervision.
Accept Fuel Bld*
The board accepted the Standard Oil bid of .1390 per
gallon for fuel oil for Pleasantvtew. and gave Standard
the gas business for Pleasantvtew, too, at .1495 a gallon.
Gulf bld 1400 fcr gas at Pleasantvlew, but because of the
fuel bid and the personalized service the school has re­
ceived from Standard, both bids went to that company.
The additional cost to the district would be under $25.
Gulf got the gas contract fcr Hastings at 11.75 a gallon
Standard's bld was .1248.
z
The board accepted a bid of 850 from the Edward
Slocum for a four by eight rod parcel of land adjacent
to the old Hendershot school. Ownership was acquired
during annexation-rbut wasn't known.
The resignation of Mrs. Ruth Wattles as a third grade
teacher at Altoft was accepted, and Laurence Cox was
named permanent custodian at Northeastern following
the 90-day probationary period.

curate and complete records on the one acre com pro­
jects.

so that the student is able to plant one acre and compare
it with another hybrid com. The student plante, cares
for and records the progress of the com crop. The record
forms are then scored as to the detail and completeness,
as well as neatness.

help others and to gain u greater understanding of their
Christian faith in relation Co the world.

Appalschlan Mountain Project
• &lt;?hey are at Sunset Gap Community Center, which
has a mailing address of Newport, T^nn., working with
the Appalachian Mountain Project which is sponsored by
the United Presbyterian Missions.
Not only are the local people working this week for
others, but they spent many hours working to earn
mcney to finance their trip. They earned 8971 on such
projects as washing cars, and each also put in 810.
Their work in the South could include painting build­
ings, assisting in homes or fields or in any other type of
work. Their study will be for a greater understanding of
the Christian faith. They expected to participate in the
Project from Tuesday through Saturday, June 19.
While the United Presbyterian National Missions has
long been active in such endeavors, this is a "first” for
Presbyterian youth from Hastlgns. They, themselves de­
cided to do it, rather than go on a canoe trip or have
some similar fun activity. ■

Hie Centennial Parade here was a fitting climax to the
official celebration of the 100th Anniversary of Hastings
a city. It was certainly the largest and best organized
event of its kind ever held here.
•
•
•
m

It was too bad that spectators along the route could
not see and appreciafe the really intricate work necessary
to get a show of this sort underway. A salute to those who
had a part in staging this event. Except for a very few
brief and unavoidable delays in getting Across Green
Street, the parade started and proceeded just about
schedule.
*
•
•
•
A parade tlial takes more than two hours to pass any one
point akr&lt; the route could easily become boring. However,
there was sufficient variety and quality In the spectacle
to easily hold one's attention throughout. In tact, we
regretted to see the last official group turn down Broadway.
•
•
•
Looking back on the Centennial Celebration which got
underway with the banquet on March 11, the thing that
impressed us and will linger in our memory is the great
number of people who worked with such enthusiasm on the
various projects and had such fun doing IL
Even in a small city the size of Hastings where plenty
of individualism is much in evidence, there will always be
plenty of disagreements on a wide number of issues. But
during the Centennial, there was a unity and spirit of good
win that everyone recognised and enjoyed.
In fact, one often heard remarks to the effect that:
•Will we have to wait another hundred yean for somethlng fine like this to happen to us again!" The answer is
—or at least should be—a resounding "No!"
Let’s agree that, even though disagreements are par for
the course, so to apeak, there must be plenty of issues and
projects that could and should command our best civic
efforts.
Naturally, any such project must be selected with ex­
treme care to make sure that it does, Indeed, have united
backing—otherwise, you run into danger of a breakdown
through factionalism.
•
•
•
Charlotte had an experience similar to ours during
their recent Centennial Celebration. Consequently, in re­
sponse to a demand for a civic project, they are planning
a Pioneer Day event not aa elaborate as the Centennial,
of course, but something in which the entire community
can participate.
Maybe over here wc can come up with something as
good—or even better.
\

It didn't take long after the Celebration ended on June
5, for freshly shaven faces to emerge from behind the
•’brush” once again. Speaking from personal experience, it
certainly felt good! Those “old timers" must have been a
really sturdy lot to have endured such discomforts year,
after year. Or, maybe considering the bartering equipment
available in those days, a growth of whiskers was the lesser
of two evils.
■

If any one person ia to be singled out for praise in
connection with the Centennial, that person will have to be
Frank Ritchie who—ably assisted by his wife, Winnie—
came out of a theoretical retirement to direct the entire
event. Frank was the sort of director who worked long
hours to get the show organised and underway—and It is
probably this fact that helped make it easier for others to
work with equal enthusiasm along with him.
Because of the “weak" dollar on the foreign exchange,
an Impression persists that the US. economy is getting
soft and puny. The farts are, however, that this year—not
ft boom year by any stretch of the imagination—our Gross
National Product will be near the 1066 billion mart.
Although this is lower than the level predicted by some
economists, it still will equal the Gross National Product
of four other leading industrial nations combined—Russia,
510 billion; Japan, 222 billion; West Germany, 108 billion;
the United Kingdom. 125 billion. That is certainly not a
puny record judged by any standards.
Even when beset with troubles both at home and abroad,
we are a great QAilon and if we are ever beaten to our
knees, we, ourselves, will do it through loss of confidence
in ourselves, in our accomplishments and in our country.

With traffic congestion^ major problem everywhere, we
think it ridiculous that the Michigan Legislature is even
considering enactment of a law to permit the movement of
vehicles fourteen feet wide along our highways. Vehicles
of this width would extend well over the center lines,
forcing oncoming traffic to literally “get off the road." It
would take years of construction effort and billions of
dollars to enable highways to safely handle vehicles four­
teen feet wide.
(
Why should the public be put to such expense just to
make things a bit more convenient for one, ■pectfir indus­
try? Why should the public be put to added danger and
Inconvenience on the highways to help the builders of
mobile home and pre-fabricated housing earn a little more
money?
If the Legislature even passes such a law, it will be in
total disregard of the public good.

yjune 7, 1971
To the Editor:
.
The taxpayers of Barry County are hearing a great
deal lately about how the Barry County Medical Care
Facility is operating in the red and that certain meas­
ures are being taken to alleviate the situation
The Cbunty Finance Committee has studied the prob­
lem and according to “Joe" Bennett in an Interview the
economy measures which will be taken include: laying
off six nurses* stem, cutting down on overtime, not fill­
ing in for employees who are HL cutting down on sick
pay for employees from 12 to 10 days per year, and add­
ing three more patients to the facility who will pay their
own way. In addition, the committee plans a 8100.000
cut in next year's bugdet for the facility.
We, as employees of the Medical Care Facility and as
taxpayers of Barry County, are also very concerned about
this problem. We feel, however, that, with ah due respect
for the county finance committee, that they have thrown
these measurefl out to the public as the solutions to the
problems without studying either the effectiveness of the
proposals or the ultimate effect on the patients we care
for.
Ever since the State ran out of money for Medicaid,
we have been readjusting our nurses aide staff so that
fewer aides are working the floor every day. We have
doubled up on our work during the week so that we can
get by with tews help on the weekends. In addition, only
two replacements have been hired for the doeen or so
aides who have left in the last six weeks. The situation
has reached the point where we are working at peak
capacity and if lay-offs do occur, it will be the patients
who will suffer. Many of the people who believe the fa­
cility is over-staffed do not realize the kind of care these
old and sick people require 24 hours a day. Moat do not
even walk, dress or bathe themselves, or take themselves
to the totleL- Up until now we have been very proud of
the cartwe have been giving our patients. But if as
suggested we cut down on help, they will be the ones to
pay the price. We are trying very hard to maintain the
quality of our nursing but we are only human.
As for the economic advantages of cutting down on
overtime, we can see no great benefit since there is no
overtime in the first place. Furthermore, we certainly did
not appreciate the cut In sick days (which has already
taken place) without so much as a warning that * would.
It may not sound like such a great amount of money to
cut from an individual employee to the members of the
finance committee who make nearly aS much by attend­
ing one committee meeting, but to us it might pay for a
gas and electric bill for a month.
We art not blind—we can plainly see that measures
must be taken to cut down on county and facility ex­
penses. We feel, however, that if the problem were
studied more closely, there axe other areas of spending
that could be cut without endangering either our jobs or
the welfare of our patients. Getting old is not something
that can be itemized like a new building, but rather it is
a way of life that cannot be denied a person just be­
cause it is not In the budget

To the Editor:
Concerning all the letters you have gotten about Del­
ton. Why all the fuss? Anyone driving through Delton
can see it for what Lt is.
Delton does have many wonderful people, but un­
fortunately they are willing to let the town hoodlums do
as they please as long as they are left alone. Their police­
man also is a fine man but when the town has tacked
a nickname of Barney Fife or Annie Oakley to him you
know they can’t take him too seriously. Possibly the prob­
lem is. be doesn't get enough outside help.
Delton is a small farming town, this is true. But so
Are many of the surrounding towns. However, these towns
are famous for other things besides their taverns. Their
stores do not look slovenly and so run down.
The many letters you have received are pityful and

Wednesday. June-16, 1971

amusing. We can fully understand the views of many of
them too. What other town allows a body shop right on
the main street?
Small‘towns are nice for sure but don’t mistake small ’
town ease, with laziness. I have only one thing eL-e to
ray to those in Delton who care. Stand up, while the
issue is out in the open. You have spent hard earned
money for your homes and businesses. Make three around
you help clean up your town. You have a start You
have a fine school. an excellent volunteer fire depart­
ment. and townspeople who are concerned enough to get
angry when their town is put down.
Good Luck, From An ex-citizen .
---------------HB--------------T® The People of the United States,
More than two years ago Nixon took over as PrtsL
dent with a "secret plan” to end the war. The war still
goes on. American deaths in Vietnam are now greater
than they were in Korea. Civilian deaths there are more
tten one million, and some say as high as two million.
It is a strange and terrible war.
Lt. Calley has been convicted because he obeyed
orders and killed unarmed women and children, while
more than five hundred other young men are in prison
because they refused to obey such orders.
The Pentagon has spent more than 150 billion dollars
in Vietnam in tbe(part 10 years, but there is no money
here at home for schools, hocpkala, roads, housing. We
spend billions of dollars to land men on the moon to
bring them home with a box of dust, while millions of
Americans live Ln poverty.
Unemployment to the highest it’s been in 10 years and
inflation keeps going up.
If anyone points these things out, Spiro Agnew tells
us we are "running down America." We aren’t “running
down America"— we are American, we live here, we pay
taxes, and we are angry, that the only work many young
men can get is enlistment in the military and angry that
the veto coming home from Vietnam can’t find work al
all. We are angry about FBI taps on our telephones and
FBI agents tn our churches and coUegea And we are
angry at ourselves because we have let a system run along
killing people when we should have stopped IL Some­
thing has gone very wrong in America when Congress
finds it eerier to give money for the military to kill chil­
dren in Vietnam than to feed them here.
We want the war to end now, not in October of 1972
(just in time to help Nixon get re-elected). We want
every American in Indochina home for Thanksgiving din­
ner this year. We want every soldier home now. If you
agree with us why not join us.

Ph. Wl 5-2152

Wednesday, June 16, 1971

The 18th Annual Spring Recital of the Chrystal
Case Dance Studio at Central Auditorium Tuesday night,
June 8, was a stunning performance of all of the parti­
cipants and h|gh entertainment for all who attended.
It was apparent that a rehearsal had perfected the
entire program and It moved along with polite and pro­
fessional precision. It was evident that every performer
was disciplined to this overall perfection and they were
a credit not only to themselves but also to their teachers.
The costuming was of the same professional caliber
and the great help of all of the parents of the dancers
contributed to the total effectiveness of the presentation.
The community is indeed fortunate to have such ex­
cellent instruction in this cultural and healthful artistic
endeavor. The tiny tots were adorable and they were all
just great.
Mra Dorothy (Frank) McMillan, who has been the
studio pianist for 18 years, was honored and the recital
Lhente was "Dance with Dorothy.”
Brad Neubert managed all of the unusual lighting
with e..cient skill. Guest soloists were Russell Nash
and Richard Aumlck Wolfram Fechner was at the
drums.

Miss Gardner in Pre-Nuptial Whirl
The Claude Gardner family and the Darrell Aldriches
were in Detroit the weekend of May 22 to help the
Gardners’ daughter, Lynne move into her new apart­
ment and also to attend a bridal shower for Lynne
Saturday evening at the home of her aunts, Mrs. Roes
Warner and Miss Phyllis Warner. Cb-boetess wa* Mrs.
Chester Drake at Gratae late. Beside* receiving many
lovely gifts, one of the high point* of the evening was
the opportunity to meet relatives and old friends whom
. Lynne hadn't seen for some time. While the ladies were
showering Lynne with gift*, the men of the party were
entertained at the home of Chester Drake.
V Lynne, whose marriage to Stanley Aldrich, son of
the Darrell Aldriches, will take place on Saturday, June
•19, has also been feted at two other tardy showers.
On Saturday, May 1, Mrs. Stephen Johnson and Mrs.
Richard Cotter entertained with a luncheon at the home
of Mra. Johnson. Lynne not only received many gifts,
but each guest also provided her with a favorite recipe
After a delicious luncheon, it was decided to see If
Lynne had been brushing up on her culinary skill*, so
she was led to a table with a variety of cooking ingre­
dients and told to make some biscuit* without a recipe.
There were many good-natured remarks as Lynne put
together some of this and a bit of that, but finally a
pan of biscuit* wa* in the oven. For some reason, it
took a very long time for the biscuits to bake, but when
they were finally done, the tables were turned and the
joke was on the other guests as each one was required
to sample Lynne's biscuit*. It was all lots of fun, and ah
agreed that Lynne bad passed the teat—especially if
next time she would remember to add a little more of
this and a little less of that
On Saturday, May 8, Lynne wa* the honoree at a
brunch given by Mrs. Howard Peters and Mra. Wm.
Bradford at the home of Mra. Peters. Table* were dec­
orated in pink and white, and the gift* were displayed
on a table with a pink parasol decorated with pink
flowers. After the delicious refreshments, a hilarious
game of "Wedding Bingo” wa* played and winners were
able to help themselves to the prise* of other winners.
When Lynne opened the beautifully wrapped packages
there were many gifts of linen. It was a lovely party
to match a beautiful day!

The June meeting of the Taxpayers' League of
Barry County will be held at the U.A.W. Hall on
Woodland Ave. in Hastings bn June 24 at 8 p.m.
All members are urged to attend and bring a
prospective new member if you can. The move
for property tax reform is growing and it will
take the concerted effort of all the Taxpayer
groups throughout the State to put it over. Let
us get together and discuss what we can do to
help ourselves

If you cannot attend this meeting at least write
your State Representatives and let them know
how you feel. We must all put forth some effort
if we are to be heard.

HHS Lists 70 Fall, Winter
Varsity Sports Events
Seventy Varsity games and matches are scheduled for
Hastings High football, crors country and golf next Fall
and basketball and wrestling next Winter, according to
the schedules approved June 8 by the school board.
Golf becomes a Michigan prep. Fall sport this year,
for the first time, and Saxon Coach Bob Carlson expects
the young squad he had this Spring to give most schools
a lot of competition.
A new rival is on the football schedule, as Mason has
been added, replacing Albion. Lakewood, which is switch­
ing frpm the West Central to the Trl-River Conference
has been moved up as the Saxon's opening game. Mason
has long been a strong competitor in the Capital Cir­
cuit. Hastings will make the trip to Maron on Oct. 29.
The city is south and east of Lansing.
Mason's junior vanity comes to Hastings on Oct. 28.
Fourteen cross country meets are scheduled, but as
Ionia is planning on a team this Fall that list will prob­
ably be changed.
Tbe schedules follow:

Gary Fassett, owner operator of Che Flying Horseshoe

Fassett admits he was lucky on his fourth day of bant­

ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANERS

■ At one time no one was really concerned with clean
■ air; clean air was something taken for granted like
■ pure water or a clean snowfall. But not any more. Air­
™ borne dirt particles are carried into our homes daily.
In the air we breathe are millions of particles of dust,
dirt, and pollen. These same dirt particles soil dra­
peries, discolor walls and settle down-as dust every­
where. Pollen and tobacco smoke are also carried by
the air and cause annoying irritation to many allergy
sufferers. But there is a way to control this daily
build-up of dust, dirt, and pollen. An ELECTRO­
AIR ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER installed in
conjunction with a forced air heatihg 'cooling system
‘ will remove up to 95% of all dirt particles brought
to it. And ELECTRO-AIR is the nation’s largest
manufacturer of electronic air cleaners.

Stating (hat young kids have
never really been asked how they feel about milk, third graders
in Miss Jeanlne Keengy’s class, Charlevoix, Michigan, took
matters into their own hands and sent us some of their ideas.
They told us many things that a grown-up never would have
thought of. In fact, told us some things we'll never forget. V-

Here are but a tow:

"good to put In a water gun” • “the greetest thing alhre" •
"neato........ good lor you" • "just plain ok" • “your friend" •
“good In chocolate orange milkshake" • "best for your teeth”
• “reel cool" • “I love milk" • “groovy" • “good to put out
fires" • “fun to squirt out ol a cow" • "good with Ice cubes"
• “full ot energy" • "makes your hair curly" • “great” • “pep”
• “not good tor dogs” • “good tor Snoopy" • “fantastic” •
“good when you're mad” • “best thing In the world”
What do you think about milk?

To th* pioneers who barely subsisted through tbe
Winter on salt pork, wild game and darn bread this
must have been a welcome trtat to their vitamin starved
bodies. I’m not sure what vitamins we can get from
Skunk Cabbage but there must be some!
etamk Cabbage are usually found wtare there are
springs and I have been toM they only will grow wtare
water Dow. from soil that baa angle lime defaults. They
are a ohw If you are searching fcr poaslbto springs to
open aa a water reeouroe.
Speaking ot eating skunk cabbage brings up Uta
whole matter X survival foods. More and more thought
la being given to neglected natural foods both from tta
survival angle In case of a national emergency and aa
possible foods to reftaoe major crepe destroyed by Im­
ported peats or Udoglcel warfare.
.
'
Another food that grows wild In Barry county la tta
to called Jeruaatan Artichoke. They are esrwerttngly
tardy and can be prooeaaed Into many tasty Uema aa
well aa eaten raw for that nut Hks flavor. My father
taa ttee a lot X expcrimontln* with growing them
under cultivated oondlttons and the yields are very sub­
stantial.
I have sewn them growing wild along tta roadside
In Barry County. Ttair btosaom looks Ilka a simple
miniature Sunflower to vrttah family they belong. Tta
Indiana used to eat them. I always keep them growing
around tta place aonwwtare. They are npt damaged by
treesing like potatoes which they resemble superficially.
Nutritionally they have several points X superiority.
They feature a simple sugar Instead X tta complex
starch X tta potato They make tasty chips and shoe
strings when Med like potatoes If you dent mind the
extra calories.

Youth for
Understanding

Means.. ;•
Youth for Understanding
ii a program dedicated to
youth to help giv® them the
opportunity
of
widening
their close environment—to
learn the culture of our fel­
lowman in a foreign coun­
try.
The governmental people
of each country are really a
very small percentage of the
actual natives, yet these are
tlie ones we know and hear
the most about through
television and newspapers.
However the
students
through YFU live with or­
dinary people like you and
me (school teachers, farm­
ers, doctors, real estate and
car dealers,.factory workers,
etc.) — thus they become a
part of and do develop fine
relationships with the “real"
people of each country.

But this program works
two ways when we as "ordi­
nary”
American
parents
and home-makers may have
the opportunity to accept a
new son or daughter into
our homes, the better to
show and teach them that
Americans and tile UB.
have better sides than is
generally shown in news
and telecasts.

work in Hastings began in 1950 when a small group of
people began meeting in the homes of those Interested.
In the Spring of 1961. Rev. Richard D. McGee and his
wife came to Hastings from GreenLane Bible School in
Pennsyllvunla with the intention of establishing a per­
manent church: They secured a building at 210 E. Grand
Street and began holding services.
On March 12, 1963, the church became incorporated
under the laws of the State of Michigan. The growing
congregation began planning to erect a new building to
better fulfill their needs. That Fall they purchased the
property at 100 R. Woodland Avenue and began to dig
the foundation for the new cbych.
Work on the building pas halted when the city de­
cided that the lot must be kept open in case they should
ever decide to continue North Jefferson Street through
that Nock, however; the church could use the property
for parking.
The next Spring, in 1953, work began anew on the
building of the church In its present location. Construc­
tion continued through the Winter with the laying of
the foundation and the blocks. By May of 1964, the con­
gregation began bolding meetings in the new church
building.
In 1966, after five years of faithful service, during
which time their two daughters, Rachael and Joy were
born. Rev. McGee frit his ministry in Hastings ended.
On May 6, 1966, he resigned the pastorate to begin a year
of language study in Costa Rica in preparation for ser­
vice on the mission field of Nicaragua.
Rev. James Barnard, his wife Betty, and their two
daughters. Lynne and Beth of Olivet, took up the pastorial duties at the Assembly and served for one year
and four months, when they also felt it the will of God
that they go to the mission field to serve. Like the Mc­
Gees, with The blessing and some financial support of
the church the Hamands left for Hartal Uberia, West
Afrfca.
Rev. Berent Knutsen, his wife, Margaret, and their
two children, Janet and James came to Hastings from
Eaton Rapids to take over the pastorate. During the four
years in which Rev. Knutsen served the congregation,
extensive work was done on the church building, much
redecorating was completed with the present entry way
and walks being established. and the steeple erected.
With the Knuteens leaving to accept duties at the Sagi­
naw First Assembly of God Church in August of 1961,
Rev. Jack E. Carrier. his wife, Mary, and their two chil­
dren, Blanche, and Jack of Grand Haven began serving
the church.
During this time, the church prospered and was able
to purchase the property at 306 East Grant Street as the

These early Christians had more than a verbal testi­
mony: they had a vibrant life. They did not need to go
around telling everyone that they were Spirit-filled. The
people could tell by watching and listening (see Acts
4:13),
Peter preached a very pointed sermon on that day and
made no apologies that all men everywhere must repent
and then they would receive the gift of the Holy Spirit
(see Acta 3:38, 30). The people gave up their sins and
were baptised in water. They made a clear break with
the old life—no more self-centered living for them. Trey
now had dedicated their Uvea to five for the Savior whom
their countrymen had crucified, and they were ready to
put Jews tint no matter what might happen to them.
After they were converted, baptised and Bptilt-filled."
. . . they continued steadfartiy in the apostiee doctrine
and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.**
(Acts 3:43). They chose Christian people for their friends.
They had fellowship with them, broke bread with them,
and they prayed with them Their greastest delight was
to gather for the early morning prayer meeting—and
then in between meetings their Uvea were filled with
warmth and wtaeomenem that caused people to say. “I
would like to belong to that church.*' Is there any wonder
in your mind why that church grew?”
General William Booth, founder of the Salvation
Army, would read the Books of Acts as be knelt and
then he would pray, “Do it again Lord I Do it a*mM
Yes, this to what we must see today—the Book of Acta
in operation that we may experience fresh, now, Spiritfilled Ufa in our hearts. Why? That there might be a
new spirit of prayer, a new fervor of worship, a new love
for the Word of God. and a mighty dectre to see souls
saved and set free from Satan's Ufa - wrecking, soul
damning bonds. God wants to breathe on us as He breath­
ed nt Pentecost and clothe us all with that spiritual pow­
er that win drew the lost to Christ

By Rev. H. R. Colhrer
.
Recently we oetebrated Pentecost Sunday. This day is
significant in the Christian Church because this day to
considered the birthday of the Christian Church. Nearly
two millenluma have passed rlnce thM notable day. Times
have changed. People have changed; but God baa not
changed (Malachi 3:8). Another thing has changed—the
church. As I look at the church as it was in the book
of Acta and then look at it today, I see a tremendous dif­
ference in the two. Let us tank at the flrat century
church and then may each of ua make his own com­
parison to the two.
As the sun arose on Pentecost Bunday there were but
120 members praying in an upper room. Before the day
was over there were 3,120 members (see Acta 2:47).
That, flrot Pentecostal church wea a Spirited-filled
church and growth was and to inevitable in a body like
that It to as certain as the blooming clover in a well
watered hay field. It to a predictable aa the bearing of
grain tn a healthy com field.
There was the scund of a rushing mighty wind and
that wind brought with it the very breath of divine life
to that group of believers. The wind of the Spirit wlU do
the same for any church. To the cold, formal church it
will come a breath of new life aa the buret of new Ufe
in the Springtime comes, bringing with it relief from
the long, cold hard Winter. To a spiritually dormant con­
gregation it will oome aa a surge of resurrection power
as tt did in Eeeklel’s day to the valley of dry bones.
Please note what kind of a church it was that had
this phenomenal growth. It was a born-again church, a
sanctified and separated church, a truly Spirit - filled
church. It had none of that careless gossip ttmt keeps
people from Joining some churches. There were no petty
Jealousies, no unkind backbiting to the Flrot Church of
Jerusalem. Christian love flowed freely from heart to
heart and the believers even shared of their material

Recently »e oetobrMed PtntwoM Sunday. Thu day to
IgnlHcanl In the ChrUtlan Church becauie Ulla day la
nnaldered the birthday of Ums CluiaUan Church. Nearly
wo mlllenlunu han puaed eInce thu notable (tay Timer
ia»e cha/fced -People han changed: but Ood haa not
hanged (Malachi 1:«&gt;. Another thing haa changed—the
’.hunch. Aa I look at the church aa It war In the book
&lt;t AM and then look at K today, I an a tremendnue dUerence In the two. Let ua knk at the fleet century
ihufch and then may each of ua make hie own comlarlson to the -two.
Aa the cun arose on Pentecoet Sunday then wen but
20 members praying In an upper room. Before the day
no onr there wen 1,110 memhen («ee Acts 1:471.
That flrat Pehteowtal church was a Splrlted-fllled
huroh and growth waa and la inevitable In a body like
hat It la aa certain u the blooming clover In a well
ratend hay field. It la a predictable aa the bearing of
Tain In a healthy corn field.
Then waa the scund of a ruahlng mighty wind and
hat wind brought with It the very breath of divine life
o that group ot belleven. The wind of Use Spirit will do
he acme for any church. To the cold, formal church It
rill come a breath of new Me aa the bunt of new life
n the Springtime cornea, bringing with It relief from
he long, cold hard Winter. To a aptrltuallr dormant oonTesatlon It will come aa a aurge of reeumctlon power
e it did In Exddel'a day to the valley og dry bones.
Plaue note what kind of a church It waa that bad
hla phenomenal growth. It waa a born-again church, a
ancuned and aeparated church, a truly Spirit-filled
huroh. It had none of that oareleae goaalp that keeps
oopte from Joining come churches. There were no petty
aUoualea, no unkind backbiting la the Pint church of
eruaalem. ChrteUan lore flowed freely from heart to
eart and the belleven even shared of their material

T» Um Editor:
Due to the many conflicting stories being circulated
In the area by the news media concerning the present
problem at the Medical Facility, the Taxpayers' League
of Barry County has extended invitations to both sides
to be present at the meeting on Thursday, June 24, at
the Union Hall on Woodland Avenue to give their view­
points concerning the issue.
.
It 1ms been the policy of the League to act as a clear­
ing house for matters of this nature so we ask you to
come to hear the dkeouaslon which will follow some .film

I, along with many taxpayers, am very concerned wun
the present “Medical Care Facility Problem" in Barry
County. Many of us remember when Mrs. Margery Dryer
was the director and there was never any "deficit" In ex­
penses. The budget was always balanced and those patients

U wxnMMng mort companlea. Including
Bell are not able to offer their customers. Our color

got the best of care.
Things along the "champagne" budget were not asked
for, but the employees were never laid off nor patients
lacking for the best in loving care.
I think it is time for all Barry County taxpayers to stop
and think back a moment. The Welfare Dept, "got the
job" done and the director’s word with Mrs. Dryer at the
helm was not questioned because her word was as good as
"gold." and she Joined her staff in doing the job well.
Sure, she would have loved a little -plush" too. but
would not ask for it-only the first concern of her patients
and staff. I, for one, do not believe that costs have in­
creased per enre so much but what the same attitude would
have saved the situation now.
I hope that the people will back Monty "Joe" Bennett
all the way. We need a good housedeanlng. I hope also that
no one at the Facility will be tired to the extent that
patents suffer for lack of care. The Barry County Medical
Facility Is a wonderful institution and the nurses and staff
have been doing their best, but the trouble lies elsewhere
and now the good must suffer. That is what happens when
folks say “yes" without searching the truth and then
standing up for what is right We never bad this problem
with Margery Dryer. Think!—Barry County taxpayers—

By Stephen Berten
B5 Hastings
The other day as I was marching with the Barry
County Peace Committee in the Centennial Parade, a
man asked us why if we dont like the country, “why
dont we leave it?"
I would like to answer this by saying that I do not
like the things that are wrong with our country. I do not
like the war. the draft, the Inflation, the high unemploy­
ment, the pollution, the racism, and all the other things
wrong in our country.
But I am not going to leave the country because of
thia I love my country. Because I love my country I
want to protect my country by correcting the things that
are wrong in our country and making It the best on
Earth.
When one loves his country, he speaks out against
the things wrong in his country. He does not speak out
of hatred, he speaks out of love ao that the wrongs may
be corrected. .The fact that I take time to protest the
things wrqng with our country shows that I love my
country. One does not leave the country he loves.
Remember that thia is “my country," right or wrong.
When right to keep right, when wrong to make right."

To the Editor:
I have read all of the bitterly critical tetters condemn­
ing Delton in recent issues of The Banner and as I have
lived in or around Delton all of my long life It is my home
town and I feel I must come to her defense. First of all,
I -wish those who find nothing there which meets with
their approval would move out, ft^Ltar away, as they will
never help to build, just destroy.
There are things in Delton I deplore also, such as the
taverns, which contribute nothing and add greatly to de­
linquency. Delton always had its saloon in olden days but
the clientele never included women. I wonder if it was a
good idea after all to give women the right to vote? It
seems as if ever since, morally, we have been going down
hiU
_
■
Delton has its very real problems, but they are national
as well, so don’t just single Delton out to be held up for
ridicule. Whenever I go to Delton I have a feeling of
pride when I pass the beautiful school buildings, the bank,
the super-market, the three churches, the really nice,
well-kept homes, the post office, and I know some of the
nicest people you will find anywhere live In Delton.
■I had to smile at the statement of the “Citizen" who
congratulated the first "Citizen" for having the courage to
say what he thought. It can’t require much courage to sign
anonymously.
Here’s to you, Delton, with all best wishes for your
future.

Year-End Events at Lakewood
The 1970-71 school year has now ended at Lakewood*
Many open houses have been held in the area honoring
the graduates.
The graduation exercises were very nice with members
of the class giving the speeches. Howard Hershberger was
recognized by the da* with a gift. The grade school pupils
also brought the year to an end with parties. Because of
the lack of funds, trips were called off and the next best
thing had to be done. Two daises were able to go to Hilary
Rye Park for a picnic. The other classes remained on theschool grounds or walked to the village park for a picnic.
Most of the classes slopped for a special treat at Clas­
sic’s Drug Store, furnished by funds collected for parties.
The boys and girls all seemed to have a good time in spite
of everything. Let’s hope, though, that next year they can
have their planned trips. .

CHURCH OF THE WEEK

It is the American branch of the Anglican Communion
(Church of England), standing in the midst of Apostolic
Buoceesion, a part of the Holy Catholic Church of which
Jesus Christ is the Head and Founder and of which per­
sons baptised with water in the Name of the Father,
Son, and Holy Ghost are members.
Very simply, those things required by Episcopalians,
for the Church to be the Church, are: ascribing in frith
to the Trinitarian Creeds, Apostle's and Nlcene:’ the
Scriptures, Old Testament, New Testament and Apocry­
pha and Holy Tradition Include all things necessary to
Salvation; the eeven Holy Sacraments; and the ancient
apostolic order of ministry—Bishops, Priests and Deacons.
Emmanuel in Hastings is such a Pariah.
When Emmanuel Episcopal Church was founded, Has- .
Ungs was a village of less than 1J00 population. Stage
coach lines to Battie Creek and Grand Rapids were tbe^
harsh and highly charged and not at aM normal, with
the nation in the third year of a bloody Civil War, when
our Parish came into being.

aionariec as early as 1846: but the first regular congre­
gation gathered at the home of Joseph Webb Bancroft
(in what is now David Dimmer's law office) an instructor
in the Hastings Bchodl and a Lay Reader in the Church
on Aug. 30, 1863, and heard him read the Morning

Book. Attending in addition to the four members of the
Bancroft family were Mr. and Mrs. F. D. Ackley and
their little daughter. Within two weeks, the congregation
had increased to 20 and early In October, services were
held by Father L. H. Corson of Jonesville In the Presby­
terian Church. Father Corson encouraged the local group

On Sunday, Dec. 18. 1864, the congregation moved
into quarters on the tided floor of the Rower Building
leased exclusively for church use. These new accommoda­
tions were described as "larger and better ventilated"
than the Masonic Hall. A wider stairway with fewer sharp
turns also simplified the problem of moving in the pump
,organ each week.
A definite step forward in the life of the parish came
with the construction of its own house of worship, "Em­
manuel Chapel." (the present parish house), erected on
Oct. 14, 1866.
The bed which now hangs in the tower of our present
church was authorised for purchase at a Vestry meeting
on April 11, 1871, Hartings Centennial Year, and was in­
scribed with the phrase.

eventual oonetroction of a new church building began to
take form as early as 1879. At least the report of the
Sunday School Treasurer on April 23 of that year listed
81 JO reserved for "Church Building Fund."
The cornerstone of the new building was laid May 22,
1890 at a ceremony conducted by Bishop Gillesplo with
tors from other parte of the State.
The Vestry accepted the new building as complete on
Nov. 30, 1891. On Christmas Eve, Father Bancroft held
a final service in Emmanuel Chapel and on Christmas
Day, 1891 the congregation worshipped for the first time
in the new church (present building) w*h Bishop Ofilespte officiating and Braisted by Father W. W. Taylor and
A dream started by a gift of I1A0 from the Sunday
School came true on Advent Sunday, Dec. 1, 1106 when
the new Emmanuel Church was consecrated at an impres­
sive ceremony. And the dream by God's grace has con­
tinued to grow until now, and the memory of the thou­
sands of persons who have given of themselves and their
goods to build up the spiritual as wen as the material
fabric of Emmanuel Church cornea to us at this Centen­
nial time, filing.our hearts with praise to God for the
loving care with which He has nurtured our Parish In the

SO MUCH FOR
DAD'S DAY

Remember the
good old days when
Dad was king of the
castle, and everyone
jumped when he
spoke? And when he
came home from a
hard day's work, the
wife was waiting
with his slippers and
pipe? Fellows, some­
where down the line
our command has
slipped. With wom­
an suffrage has come
male suffering. Why
we're lucky if we’re
even noticed when
we come in from
work, let alone the
slippers and pipe.
But there is one
thing that can be
done to ease the pain.
We can get a pair
of soft comfortable
casual knock-about
shoes that are easy
to get into on our
own. So rebuild the
old male _ego. You
furnish the pipe —
we'll furnish the
slippers.

DO YOU KNOW THE
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
LOW-COST INSURANCE
AND CHEAP INSURANCE?
Buying cheap insurance for your home or cor
is like buying a cheap parachute.
*•
By the time you find the holes, it’s
too late to do anything about it.
But you don’t wont to pay too much
for your insurance protection, either.
That’s why smart people buy insurance
for home, cor or business through an
independent insurance agent. .
Because he represents several companies, he
can shop around to find the best insurance
for you ot a fair price. What’s more, he’s on
your side when it comes to fast, fair
settlement of all claims.
Remember — there's no such thing os
bargain-basement insurance.

are professional independent agents.

Race Develops
For November
Electors in the City of
Hastings’ will name their
municipal officials for the
first time in November, and
there will be only one con­
test. The lone race will be
for alderman of the Fourth
Ward, with Atty. William P.
Battiste and William R.
Cook seeking the seat on
the Council being vacated
by George Hamaty.
*
Hamaty has served since
October. 1M3.
There will be no primary.
Primaries are
held only
when more than two candi­
dates file for one office.
In the past, Hastings has
elected
City
officials
tn
April. Early this year aider­
men decided to follow the
State's lead in providing for
the election of city officials
tn November—unless a mu­
nicipality decided otherwise.
Other aldermanic candi­
dates for election in Novem­
ber are Frank Ritchie, First
Ward; Lynn R. Brown, Sec­
ond. and incumbent Edward
Cuukin, Third Ward.
Mrs. Donna Kinney is un­
opposed for reelection as
city clerk. Incumbent War­
ren Williams did not file for
reelection to the Board of
Review. That post is likely
to be filled by write-in votes.
With the adopting of the
ordinance to name city of­
ficials in tire November, odd
year balloting, the terms of
the present aidermen and
Board of Review members
which expire automatically
were extended until next
Dec. 31.
Officials, such as Mayor
Franklin C. Beckwith and
the other four aidermen.
had their terms automatic­
ally extended about a year
and nine months, until December, 1973. The terms of
aidermen will be four years,
instead of two, and the
terms of the Board of Re­
view members will be
stretched from three to four
years. The terms of the
mayor, clerk and treasure*
will still be for two years.

No Corn Leaf Blight
Found in Barry—Yet

' •

Early June surveys conducted by Michigan SUte
University plant pathologists have discovered southern
oom leaf blight (BCLB) al three locations in Michigan
To date none has been identified in Barry County al­
though it could be present in scene fields.
According to Dr. A. H. EUingboe, "We have positively
identified the presence of 6CLB in Kalamazoo, Mont­
calm and Tuscola Cbuntlea "However," he cautions, "this
doesn't mean that SCLB will be a serious threat to this
year's com crop. There is no need for drastic action at
present."
Depends on Weather
Any potential for arf epidemic of SCLB hinges on the
weather between now and upid-to late July. "If there
are frequent light mins during this' period, conditions
will be more favorable for the development of the dis­
ease," says EUingboe.
If the disease does develop, severity will depend a lot
on the specific hybrid a farmer has planted. EUingboe
notes that infection levels vrty widely even among hy­
brids containing the susceptible T cytoplasm.
EUingboe attributes the early occurrence of the fungus
disease to spores that overwintered on seeds from last
year's com crop. "The volunteer planto from these seeds
are probably the source of this year's infection,” he says.
Yellow leaf blight was also found in Kalamazoo and
Montcalm Counties, says EUingboe. Crop damage from
this disease depends on the same weather conditions as
SCLB.
Barry County is tn the path of NASA flights being
made to study blight. Pictures are being taken on infra­
red film and ground observations are being made in a
research project to determine if the dreaded blight can
be detected from the air. This Is being done in eight other
counties in Michigan and similar observations are being
made in seven other states.
County Agricultural Agents Arthur Steeby and James
Pelham are making bi-weekly visits to oom fields owned
by Floyd Jqnea of Hickory Corners, Hosea Humphrey of

�-EDITORIAL^
„---------- ----------- fiy R. M. r

------------------------- -----------

In our opinion Uie eltUtnl ol Michigan were given UlUe
consideration by the State Senate when the members there
passed a bill authorizing truckers to haul 14-foot wide
mobile homes over Michigan's 10-foot to 12-foot wide
highway lanes This means that an any state road, even
including the double-lane throughways, a load, fourteen feet
In width would seriously block traffic—in both directions
on a two lane road and in one direction on the double lane
throughways.
*With-traffic already crowding roads to caparfty. oversize
loads of this sort are certain to create new hazards. This is
especially true in view of the fact that the number of motor
vehicles using the highways is increasing from year to year.
None of the roads in eltlwr the state or national systems
were designed to handle fourtecn-foot-wide vehicles.
Building roads to such specifications would be an ex­
travagance no government could afford.
We fall to see why any industry, even a MM-mllhon-syear one, should be given so much consideration. After all.
you couldn't build many miles of highway with 14-foot
lanes for 896 million. No matter how much advance plan­
ning is done to specify routes and time of movement, one
fourteen-foot-wide mobile home moving down the'highway

is going to immobilize and slow down a lot of traffic.

Publication by the New York Times of the Pentagon
Papers has released no new information damaging to the
military situation in Viet Nam that might put the lives of
those still serving there at risk. Prom a journalistic stand­
point. the Timer scored a sensational scoop. Because a
majority of Americans have long, grown weary of this
undeclared war in Southeast Asia, the material published
met with popular approval.
In spite of all this, the question still remains—“how far
does any publication have a right to go in procuring by any
means from government flies, material marked 'top secret*"
In this instance the Times is undoubtedly right in stating
that none of the information they published should, in fact,
have been protected under the “top secret’' label.
Although the New York Times “scoop” does not justify
the purloining of “classified'* material from the Federal
government by agents, domestic or foreign, it docs empha­
size the need for more precise rules governing the use of
the “top secret" designation and much greater care and
good judgment in applying them.
In the course of its world wide contacts with other na­
tions, the Federal government should exercise great care
in giving full and proper protection to sensitive materialdiplomatic correspondence with foreign governments, for
example.
It Is Interesting to note that on the same page In which \
the Times announced its journalistic scoop, there was a
banner headline announcing that: “Hanoi and Vletcong at
Paris Talks Cite Times Series As Proof US. Is Aggressor."
Of course the Peace Talks at Paris have been bogged
down almost from the time they started. Nevertheless, is it
not possible that the publication by the Times of the
Pentagon Papers, will further delay the achievement of a
cease fire and the release of war prisoners. Hanoi, in view
of the propaganda impact of these papers, is not likely to
soften its hard line or negotiate fo good faith. This may
mean a further delay in the return of Americans now
‘being held incommunicado In Viet Cong prison camps.
In our opinion, too, the one responsible for stealing
these documents should be given the same treatment as
though he were a foreign agent. No great damage was
done this time. However, any tendency to encourage theft
from government files is something that must, for the long
range good of the nation, be severely punished.
Proper protection of sensitive material is the sole responslbillty of the President. Those outside government
who take It upon themselves to "declassify" according to
their own whims —and even convictions — are usurping
authority that does not properly belong to them and so
must take the consequences.
Newspapers are doing their duty in keeping up the pres­
sure for a reformation in the present '•scatter gun” use of
the "classified" stamp. However, one can question whether
or not it is ethical journalism to make use of material
“fenced" to them from government flies bearing the "top
secret" label.

To the Editor:
.
I am writing to express my extreme displeasure with
the Barry County Road Commission for continuing thepractice of spraying to control weed growth along county
roads. At a time when most other governmental units
have given up that practice, if Indeed, they ever started
it, it seems that Barry County could also mow Instead of
spraying.
This morning we encountered a truck spraying along
Barry County Road 601 between Hickory Comers and
the county line to the South. Beginning at the Kalama­
zoo County line, the roadsides had been mowed. If short­
age of equipment is the excuse, I'm sure area farmers or
their teen-age sons would welcome the opportunity to
do the work on a contract basis. Any difference In cost
between spraying and mowing could not possibly be justi­

fortunate we are to have a
doctor such as Dr. Robert

familiar with it, he was al­

Dr. Huebner responded Im­

marks on them from being dragged across other harder
rocks. Bed rock scratches'where there are outcrops give
ciew/j to the direction of ice movements.
It would be interesting to know some of these bands .
in our county. The fields near the intersection of M-43
and M-37 west of Hastings are good examples of boulde.
belt dumps. I have been told that many of the rocks that
were cut and built into the magnificant walls of the St.
Rose Catholic Church came from, this area. The early
stone masons.of Barry County certainly made good use
of the native rock resources. They are far from all used
up though there are few men left with the patience and
skill to chip the big boulders into neatly shaped building «
blocks.
I suggest next time you are out for a drive you take
a second l^ok at-aome of the atone work on our old
houses. Most of the old craftsmen have long been for­
gotten though the rocks'will endure for ages.

The great glacial Ice flows coming from Cadadlan
sources chewed up the mountains as they overwhelmed
the countryside. Some places furnished much rock ma­

big strings of boulders in many places. Studies of mod­

The Pint United Methodirt Church of Hastings was
organized In September, 1841. Its first pastor, and the
first resldtent jfcator of any church in Barry County was
the Rev. Daniel Bush, an M0 a year Circuit Rider sent
to the area in 1841 by the Method* Conference to estab­
lish “missions In Barry, Eaton, and north Kalamazoo
Counties."
Rev. Bush was welcomed to the area by Mr. and Mrs.
Slocum Bunker, In November 1841. He brought his fam­
ily and household goods to the future city of Hastings
from Grand Rapids by cot cart. A tog parsonage 24 x 20
with these spedfloatlons was built In 1843:
"one story high, to be done off in plain style; one
room, bedroom and pantry; and a shanty barn, the
lot to be fenced in with mils.**
The first four leaders of the Church, Alonzo Barnum,
Lorenzo Mudge, E. R. Carpenter and Aaron Ellis lived
all the way from 9 to 22 miles from the village.
For the first four years the Mothodist congregation
met in the tag homes of its members. In 1845 during the
pastorate of Rev. A. C. Shaw the membership built a log
church, where the people "hungry for the Bread of Life"
assembled. The Hastings Church was part of a Circuit
for the first 26 yean of Ito history. It became a station
charge in 1887.
The log church building served as a place of worship
and meeting until 1859. In 1860 during the pastorate of
Rev. Jeremy Boynton a new building was erected and
dedicated at the corner of Jefferson and Green Streets.
Volunteers out and donated the lumber which was hauled
to the saw mill by ox cart. A transcript was added in 1875
and a lecture room in 1892. In 1911' the building was
sold to the Odd Fellows Lodge and is still in use by the
Lodge.
The present building exclusive of the addition to the
west, was ready for consecration, Sept. 3, 1911. The struc­
ture including seats, lights and heating was built for
842,000. Under the direction of Bishop Quayle the entire
coat of $42,000 was pledged in one half hour. The building
site cost 81,800. In 1949, during the pastorate of Rev.
Leon Manning the church chancel was changed at a
cost of 825,000.
Mr. Hubert Cook and the late Mrs. Cook were the
first couple to be married in the new edifaee, Sept. 11,
1911.
.
The addition to the west, the fifth major building
prognun in the church’s history was started during the
pastorate of. Dr. William H. Helrigcl and completed after
Gnorgo KUloU WM aaalgned ten, u «««&lt;&lt;

The First United Methodist Church of Hastings has
had 53 ministers in Ito 130 year history. The average
length of each pastorate being under 2H years. Dr. Stan­
ley Buck coming here April 1, 1969 is the 53rd pastor.

whom could neither read nor write to sing their religion
He put Methodist faith, doctrine and beliefs into song.
Methodism came to America about 1760. It was
brought here by both laymen and clergymen who migra­
ted here from England. Francis Asbury known as “The
Prophet of the Long Hood" was the first American
Bishop.
-*•
In the area of Doctrine and Beliefs the United Metho­
dist Church is a Christian Church standing squarely on
the Bible. From the very beginning Methodism has stress­
ed certs In things in belief; a trinitarian GotL Pettier,
Son and Holy Spirit; the sinful condition of every man.
the free moral agency of every man. the atonement at
Jesus Christ for sin. the experience of forgiveness, as­
surance. and sanctification; the sufficiency of the Holy
Scriptures for faith and practice, the divine origin and
nature of the Church, divine judgment and eternal life.
In practice Methodists have emphasised missions,
evangelism, social concern, education on every level, the
healing ministry, separation of Church and state, and a
spirit of freedom for ah men.
Methodists have never been doctrinally conscious. The
practical living of the Christian life had always meant
more to Methodists than balr-spiitting theological discus­
sions. The Church has never insisted on uniformity of
thought or statement. If a person wants to live a Chris­
tian life and affirms that he sincerely accepts Jesus
Christ as Savior and Lord, that is enough.

The founder of the Methodist Church was John Wes­
ley, bom tn Epworth. England, June 17. 1703. Wesley died
tn London. March 2. 1791 in his 88th year. For more than

50 years he preached on average of three times a day. a
total erf 42,000 sermons. He traveled in his laud journeys
28,000 milda on horseback and stagecoach. He published
440 books. uwpta and pamphlets.
Methodten dates Ma beginning May 24. 1738 at what
la called “Wesley s Heart Warming Experience." After
some months at restlaw wandering Wertey wrote In his
diary on the above mentioned date this paragraph:
“In the evening I went very unwillingly to a society
in Alderagate Street, where one was reading Luther s
“Preface to the Epistle to the Romans." About a quarter
before nine, while be was describing the change which
God works in the heart through faith In Christ. I felt
my heart strangely warmed. I felt I did trust in Christ,
Christ alone for salvation; and an assurance was given
me. that he had taken away my sins, even mine and
saved me from the law of sin and death." This was the
turning point In Wesley's life and the real beginning of
the Methodist Church.
Since Join Wesley was not welcome In the Church of
England he started various Methodist societies over which
he had supervision. Wesley's younger brother, Charles
Wesley, known as the sweet singer of Methodism, had a
profound influence on the Methodist movement We wrote

Prophet of the Long Hood” was the flret American
Bishop.

In the area of Doctrine and Beliefs the United Metho­
dic Church is a Christian Church standing squarely on
the Bible. Prom the very beginning Methodism has stress­
ed certain Chings in belief; a trinitarian God.—Father,
Son and Holy Spirit; the sinful condition of every man.
the free moral agency of every man, the atonement of
Jesus Christ for sin. the experience of forgiveness, as­
surance, and sanctification; the sufficiency of the Holy
Scriptures for faith and practice, the divine origin and

ears he preached an average of three times a day, a
1 of 42,000 sermons. He traveled in hia land journeys

In the evening I went very unwillingly to a society
Uderagate Street, where one was reading Luther s
dace to the Epistle to the Roman*.** About a quarter

worts in the heart through faith in Christ, I frit

that he had taken away my sins, even mine and

Methodists have never been doctrinally conscious. The
practical living of the Christian life had always meant
more to Methodists than hair-splitting theological discus­
sions. The Church has never insisted on uniformity of
thought or statement. If a person wants to live a Chris­
tian life and affirms that he sincerely accepts Jesus
Christ as Savior and Lord, that is enough.

Hastings Man Among the
‘Jesus People’ in Europe
Richard Arnold, 112 W. High Street, is among the 40
unusual “Jesus People’’ who left New York June 2 to
pedal bikes aero® Europe.
The east European Communist countries are a special
target of the Wandering Wheels in their first continen­
tal venture after eeven successful trips from the Pacific
to the Atlantic ocean during the past six years. Led by
former football All American Bob Davenport, 40 college
men are:
•
,
•
• Cycling an average of 80 miles a day as they tackle
the peaks and valleys of Europe and hopefully visit
Hungary, Czechoslovakia and East Gennany.
• Sharing with others on the highways and byways
their conviction that Clhrtettantty is the moat challenging
and satisfying way of Ufa—
• Learning from athers both Inside and outside the
group. Among the Wheels are two black American boys,
a Mexlcan-Ameriaan who is the song leader, an Ameri- .
can Indian and two Vietnam war veteran*.
Noted travelogue motion-picture producer Julian
Gromer who has lectured In Hastings is filming the en­
tire trip. "Wheels Aero® Europe" arrived in Brussels via,.
Sabana Belgian World AlrUnea June 4 to.^Art,#U|,R^r
Ing tour. They are riding ten-apred Schwinn Super Sportr
provided by Schwinn e«e&lt;daUy for the trip.
Their tentative route: Brussels to the Rhine Valley,
south over the Alps down to Florence, Italy; east to
Yugoslavia, on to Vienna, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, and
East Gennany, through West Gennany and Hofland,
then back to Brussels to' fly to the State* July 14.
Based At Taylor University
Wandering Wheels la based at Taylor University, a 125-year-old Christian liberal arts college. “The Wheels"
have a record of seven successful bike trips aero® the
American continent averaging 120 miles a day in all
kind* of weather and every type of terrain. The *07 troop
*•
sang at the White House for former President Lyndon
Johnson, and the *68 group presented a short concert of
patriotic songs for ex-president Harry Truman.
While "Wheels Across Europe” is in progress, an­
other Wheels caravan is undertaking the first coed crouscountry trip from San Diego to Savannah. Leaders are
two Taylor staff member* who are devoting their vaca­
tion time to this venture.

“In our own laissez-faire kind of way," says Daven­

Nashville has .Mt a precedent for Michigan in that a
group at nine persons has organized a non-profit corpor­
ation to build a housing unit for low or moderate incoma
families with money furnished by the Farm Home Ad­
ministration.
.
.
This is the first time the Administration has loaned money to a non-profit organization.
The need.for such an organization as the Nashville
Housing Corporation came from ideas presented to the
Nashville Chamber of Commerce about a year ago. How­
ever, that is as far as the CC went. Monies needed for
forming the non-profit corporation were provided kw ,
nine men who are all active members of the Chamber
The corporation was organized in May, 4970. On Oct.
_^12 they applied to the Fha for the loan, and an May 36
of this year they received $25,040 from FHA at 7*4 pa-cent interest for a period at 50 years to purchase property
on Reed street to construct a duplex.
Heading the Housing corporation as president is
George Vogt. The vice president is Justin Cooley; secre­
tary, Max Kelley; treasurer, Ben Mason, and board of
directors, Harold Christiansen, Nelson Brumm, John
Simmon. William KJergaard and William Hecker.
Hoping to attract renters in the moderate wage class,
each unit In the two-family house is to rent for. $135 a
month. This will not Include utilities, but will go to pay
back the loan and interest, cover local taxes and take
care of repairs.
Bach unit is to be comprised of a living room, com­
bination kitchen and dining area, two bedrooms and a
bath. The grounds will be landscaped and a parking area
will be provided. There will be no garage.
The duplex is to be ready for occupancy Aug. 27, and
it appears there will be no difficulty in renting the units.
A number of inquiries have already come in.
In addition to the &gt;136 monthly rent, there will of
course be electric bills for beat, tights and cooking, water
bills and garbage pickup, and -the units are not furnished.
According to William Meyer of Hastings, Barry Coun­
ty supervisor of the Farm Home Administration, should
the unite be rented to persons in the low income bracket,
they may be carefully investigated, and the government
said this supplement might go as high as &gt;65 on pro­
perties renting for &gt;135 a month.
Nashville has need for housing, even thought a number
of new homes have been built in the past few years.
Rental properties are especially at a premium, and each
Fall teachers find it hard to find homes here. Some

instances they have driven in each day from as far away
as Grand Rapids, 50 miles.
~
Whether ar not the Nashville Housing Corporation
will build other unite depends entirely on the success of
the first one. If they find they cannot rent the property. and this seems highly Improbable, then they could
elect to sell the duplex.

                  <text>Editorial .. . .
A Supreme Court deci­
sion is the taw of the land
and must be accepted as
such. Nevertheless, it is
our opinion that the verdict
reject inc
the Govern*
ment’x case against the
New York Times involving
the publication of material
purloined from govern­
ment files classified as
"top secret” will open a
Pandora’s Box of new and
unexpected troubles.
The decision Is, In effect,
an open invitation for theft
of classified government
material without fear of
punishment—providing no
harm is done.
But who Is to decide
whether or not harm Is
being done by publication
of purloined material?
Will each case involving
such a theft have to be
decided by the Supreme
Court?
If so, this will
effectively nullify the right
of the Executive branch of
government to exercise in­
dependent judgement and
discretion in safeguarding
sensitive and classified
material. Is that the kind
of government we want?
If it is deemed ethical
for a newspaper to make
use of material purloined
from secret government
files, the door is thrown
wide open for an almost
unlimited range of sneak
thievery,
such as the
private papers of indi­
viduals and documents be­
longing to business firms,
professional men and cor­
porations. In other words,
nothing is off limits.
All this. It seems to us,
is another form of the in­
vasion of privacy, concern­
ing which the media, right­
fully, have been such out­
spoken critics.

If It ta Illegal and an
invasion of privacy to tap
telephone lines to listen in
on private conversation,
why is it not just as Illegal
and just as much an inva­
sion pf privacy to make use
of material "tapped,” so to
speak, from private files?
It is our opinion that the
Supreme Court in this in­
stance was pressured Into
an over-hasty decision.
Much of the trouble and
confusion could have been
avoided In the first place
if the Times, knowing it
was In possession of a sto­
len Federal document of
exceptional importance had
brought this to the atten­
tion of the government
through a high-level con­
tact.
Then through per­
sonal conference, the area
of difference between what
was harmless for publica­
tion and what critical could
have been rapidly resolved.
This would have been the
honorable course and would
probably have generated
greater respect for both
the newspaper and the gov­
ernment.
Most of the material
could have been published
immediately without the
necessity for court action
and high pressure court
decisions and Items about
which there was disagree­
ment could have been the
basis for more precise actlon In contrast to the trial
as it actually developed
which was a "scatter gun”
sort of operation, involv­
ing material of a total
volume and complexity that
no person or groups of
persons could have pro­
perly digested during the
restricted time available.
We are surprised, even
somewhat shocked that a

newspaper such as the
Times, long regarded as
the acme of journalistic
perfection, should totally
disregard a prime duty of
good cltlxenshlp by falling
to report its possession of

Important property, stolen
from Its rightful owner—
the United States Govern­
ment.
We doubt very much that
the framers of the U.S.
Constitution intended to of­
fer protection through the
First Amendment to those

who, In the name of "free­
dom of the press” made
um of stolen documents
classified by the govern­
ment as "top secret.”
Actually, we doubt that
any newspaper has the
right to reclassify on its
own responsibility, docu­
ments given a top secret
classification.
As men­
tioned above, the Execu­
tive department may not
always be right in using

the "top Merit” stamp,
but this is something that,
for the good of the nation
should be resolved through
^conference and the adop­
tion of a mutually satisfac­
tory Mt of rules that every­
one can understand
and
respect.
Using purloined docu­
ments as the Times used
them, encourages sneak
thievery of a sort that could
be very damaging to the
nation. Also, In concluding
that such documents were
Incorrectly labeled "top

secret,” an editor may not
be in possession of all the
facts known to the Presid­
ent and could unintention­
ally do much harm to sen­
sitive projects or negotia­
tions already underway.

�Local Organization Mushrooms In Size
(The Banner A indebted to Mrs A. Lynn Brown, 501
Virginia Street. Wnn Arbor, for sending the following
story about Dr. Vergil N. Slee and the Commission on
- Professional and Hospital Activities, which had Its In­
ception in Hastings. It was published In the Ann Arbor
News on April 12.)
By Larry Bush
The Ann Arbor-based Commission on Professional
and Hospital Activities (CPllA) which had its beginnings
on a kitchen table in Hastings. Mich., is already out­
growing its two-year-old - 84.000-square foot building at
1968 Green Hd.
Recently the 1,400th hospital was added to the list
of medical facilities in the U. 8, Canada and several
other countries being served by the non-profit, non­
governmental service and research center.
Ten times as large as its nearest competitor in the
field, and five times as large as all the rest put together.

CPHA added 75 more hospitals to its list last year. This
year it has added 41 others, including the latest. Mont­
gomery General Hospital. Montgomery, W. Va.
'
Every day an average of some 45.000 patient records
are funneled ’into the Green Rd. facility and about
12.000.000 hospital record summaries a year are fed
through l(s night and day operating computers.
CPHA now’ has a staff of more* than 350 physicians,
nurses, health record analysts, data processors, statis­
ticians and others, compared to seven when the organi­
zation set up offices in Ann Arbor's First National
Building 15 years ago.
Largest of the CPHA programs is the Professional
Activity Study (PAS), a computerized medical record
Information system in which all 1.400 hospitals in the
U.S., Canada, Puerto Rico, Venezuela, Saudi Arabia and
Australia take part.
ruiucipating Hospitals send a summary of every
patients record to Ann Arbor, identified by number

rather than name, after the patient has been discharged .
from the hospital.
The CPHA staff, aided by computers, prepares month­
ly. semi-annual, and annual reports which enable the *
hospital to evaluate the care given patients and com­
pare it to prescribed standards. CPHA is the only organi­
zation with such a program on a national and inter­
national basis, and processes one-third of all discharges
from short-term general hospitals in the U. S. and
Canada.
A companion service in which most PAS hospitals
take part is the Medical Audit Program (MAP) involving
quarterly reports for hospital clinical departments. In
addition, CPHA gets involved in special studies for hos­
pital units and organizations, some of the more recent
of which have included work with the University Hos­
pital Burn Unit and a preliminary birth defects surveil­
lance project.
CPHA, with the aid of Dr. Otto K. Engelke, Washtenaw County and Ann Arbor Health Department direc­
tor, has been working on a family cancer registry for a
State Health Department program. It also has a growing
prenatal study in which the chain of events leading up to
prenatal deaths, are being tabulated.
'Some* 7.0OO hospital administrators, record people
and doctors h.ive come to Ann Arbor to attend CPHA
educational sessions on how to use the information pro­
cessed on Green Rd., some from as far away as Austra­
lia.
Dr. Vergil N. SJee, CPHA president and founder,
says "we are toolmakers of a sort—we are primarily
interested in systems rather than studies." But the ad­
mits the processing of hospital patients records and
their analysis have contributed to some significant
changes in hospital and medical procedures.
For one thing, collecting date on the use of whole
blood in hospitals and its dangers has resulted in a
widespread switch over to a fractionated blood.
.
Dr. Darrel A. Campbell, a surgeon at Ann Arbor’s
St. Joseph Mercy Hospital and professor of surgery in
the University's Medical School, last month was elected
the new chairman of the CPHA board. Others elected
to the board were Dr. Joseph H. Mctfich director of the
Atlanta office of the American Hospital Association,
vice chairman: Edward J. Connors, director of Univer­
sity Hospital, treasurer; and C. Tiffany Loftus. Benton
Harbor Mercy Hospital administrator, secretary.
It all started back in 1950 when representatives of
13 -hospitals making up the Southwestern Michigan Hos­
pital Council got together to see if they could compare
information about patients to evaluate patient care.
When it was found a standard form was needed
on which hospitals could summarize data, Dr. Slee, then
a member of the council, designed that form on his
kitchen table in Hastings with the aid of a pathologist,
a statistician and a laboratory worker. The form called
the PAS cast abstract, is still in Use with changes made

�Tire Warning Issued
A warning regarding the
use of unsafe tires has been
Issued to motorists by the
Michigan State Police.
Colonel John R. Plants,
director, said imperfect
•tires branded "Unsafe fg
Highway Use" are being
used on passenger cars
and trucks.
“These tires, by Federal
regulation and inspection,
are* unsafe for highway
use," Plants said. “Any
vehicle with these J Ires
will not pass our authorized
vehicle
Inspection pro*
gram."
Plants pointed out that
the common sale and us­
age x such tires on firm
vehicles has apparently
prompted unscrupulous
dealers to alter the branded
Imprints and offer the tires
for unlimited sale.

Members of the Payne Lake Association, a non-profit
Summer resort owner's corporation, have filed a suit In
Barry County Circuit Court to prevent the Gackler Land
Company of 418 Johnson Street, Caledonia, from grant­
ing persons access to and use of Payne Lake over Lota
7-8 of Gackler's plat and from conveying land as a resi­
dential lot unless the lot has an area cf at least 12,000
square feet
Judge Willard L. Mikesell has set 11 am. July 0 as
the time for a hearing on a temporary Injunction.
Payne Lake Association members, through Atty. Rob­
ert W. Richardson. Grand Rapids, claim that the 120
acre lake is used primarily for fishing, swimming and
boating and that there are now 77 cottages and homes
on the shore line with the owners having riparian rights.
About 25 percent of the shoreline Is privately owned
and undeveloped and would accommodate about 30 more
00ttages and hemes. The State owns about a half-mile
of undeveloped shoreline.
Gackler owns unplatted lands, and Lots 1 through
12 that ore platted with frontage on the lake with ripar­
ian rights. Lots 13 through 54, however, do not front on
the lake and have no riparian rights, the complaint states.
The complaint states that the plan is to dispose of
Lots 13 through 54 and &lt;0 giant owners easements and
rights to use the lake for usual recreational purposes.
The suit claims that giving those lot oumers the same
tights as riparian owners would affect the rights of
ethers, and increase the possibility of pollution of the
lake.

Wild Geese Leave Barry Lake
After Poacher Shoots
Residents of Shultz Park at Crooked Lake have been
enjoying' and feeding a family of wild Canadian Geese '
for tiic second year
That Is until recently when a strange flock landed on
the lake and they called the attention of someone on
the wect shore at Oak Park to the fact that there was
geese on* the lake and that person proceeded to shoot at
the geese.
Since Unit time all tlie geese have disappeared, how­
ever, the angered and saddened residents would like to
tell a little about their wild geese which they have had r
the privilege of "knowing.”
Last year the pair arrived early and set up house­
keeping somewhere on the lake and were soon seen swim­
ming In stately fashion with four little ones following
behind. They began throwing bread crusts to them and
little by little gained their confidence. Occasionally they
would waddle about the shoreline eating com thrown
there. When Fall came all six left for warmer climates.
Then to their amazement, about as soon as the ice
went out they were tack and this time there were six
of the youngitera. Upon closer observation two of them
were banded. As geese do not reach maturity and mate
until the second or third year and then mate for life,
speculation Is that they just brought aloifg a couple of
friends telling them about the gcod life at Crooked Lake.
After mother’s nesting period rhe appeared with five
little once this year at which time the proud father exer­
cised his squatter's rights and hissing and stretching his
neck and beating his wings would keep last year’s chil­
dren at their distance, as well as the neighborhood dogs
or any Interested children who ventured too close.
As .-soon as the young are hatched they are able to
walk about and even swim. The geese obtain their food
at the bottom of shallow ponds by bending their long
necks under the surface. As they pluck vegetation they
are virtually in an upside-down position so that only
their tail emerges from the water, and stands upright tn
the air.
Each morning the residents are hoping that perhaps
today they will come back for their snack and that who
ever the person is who shot at them will be reported to
the conservation officer or the Crooked Lake Sportsmen's
- Club.

nounced that the huge sel­

of the century and still
bears the name of the cur­

Coy later was joined by
a man named Miller and
the store was known as
Miller-McCoy Furniture.
Still later, Miller was jvned by A. L Harris of Grand

Thereafter,
Harris returned to Grand

"What can one man do. my friend?" asks a refrain

of air pollution. "Plenty," says John R. Pettibone of
Lansing, president of the Michigan Tuberculosis and

"The only air ypu ‘breathe is the air right around
you. fettibone said, so it would seem logical to clean
it up first.” There are many things that an individual
can do, he said, and they don’t require a fanatical de­
dication, lots of money or hard work. They are simple

Many people clean out their .yards and .pile the dry

However." Pettibone said, "a pollution conscious per­
son will take the extra time and effort needed to bag it
instead of burning it." Even the smoke from one tiny
fire adds to the already intolerable situation, he con­
tinued. Don’t be deluded into thinking that "Just this
once," won’t hurt. I assure you it will, he said.
Since cars are responsible for the majority of the
pollution in this country, we should be certain that
our cars are properly tuned at all times and operating
efficiently. So make it a point to have a Spring tune-up
on your car.
Controlling pollution where we can may cost us a

isn’t it worth it? Your TB and Respiratory Disease Associalion considers it worth it.

CHURCH OF THE WEEK
The Algonquin Lake Bible Church Is the newest or
perhaps one of the newest churches in the Hastings area.
It Is Ute only church located In the Algonquin Lake com­
munity area.
The church was bom out of a survey taken on Oct.
10. 1967. A group of students from the Grand Rapids
School of Bible and Music under the direction of Mr.
John Tuinstra, Field Director of the Independent Bible
Mission or I.B.M., canvassed the northeastern section of
the city of Hastings. Several people responded to the de­
sire fo set up a Community Bible Study Class.
A class was set-up and directed by Rev. Harry Wil­
liams also of the I.B.M, The first classes were held at the
Northeastern Elementary School and the former Pilgrim
Holiness Church and finally at the UAW Union Hall. The
first class was attended by only one person but from then
on the growth has been continuous. As a result bq July
3. 1968 the Berean Bible Center was formed under the
sponsorship of the Independent Bible Mission affiliated
with the Independent Bible Churches of America.
Rev. Harry Williams continued to guide the work for
some time." The Bible Study group met on Thursday
nights and then Sunday School and morning worship
services were held each Sunday. Later Rev. Williams left
this work to begin another class In another area. Mr. Dan
Everett temporarily took over In Rev. William’s place.
For some time several people felt a real need for es­
tablishing a good independent Bible church In the Al­
gonquin Lake area- So on Nov. 6, 1968 the steering com­
mittee agreed to purcluise the property on the corner of
West State Road and Airport Road. The property was
purchased and a building program got underway. The
name Berean Bible Center was thereby changed to Al­
gonquin Lake Bible Church.
On Sunday. June 8. 1969 the first worship service was
held in the new building. Then on July 13. 1969, Rev.
Joseph Zacharias was extended a call to become Pastor
of the church. He accepted the call and officially began
his duties in Augurt of that same year.
As of July 3rd, the church has been in existence for
three years. Since that time it has almost tripled its
growth. Sunday, June 27, we reached an all time high for
our Sunday School. The morning services has been a
steady growth na well.
Along with Sunday School and church there has been
a youth work established and growing. The teen programs
and Vacation Bible School were quite successful. We are
anticipating another very good VBS program Aug. 16-20.
We believe this church has great potential and ■
wonderful future ahead. Come, visit, and acquaint your­
self with the work. You will find the atmosphere friend­
ly and Inviting. We present the Bible and the Person of
Jesus Christ as the ultimate answer to the needs of in­
dividuals in the days In which we live.

I lead a recent article In T.V. Guide entitled “Our
Race With Doom." The writer opened with this alatemenu—"Mankind is plunging wildly toward catastrophe—
and within a generation perhaps."
This is not too startling of statement, however, for I
am sure that most of us recognize the fact that as things
. are developing, our world, our nation and mankind in
general is heading forward some sert of a climax. We
can no longer look piously around us and say, "We will
build o‘jr utopia our paradise here on earth within a
short time.” We are beginning to recognize that, difficult
and dangerous times are ahead
However, it is interesting to ncte, that God In His
Holy Word, the Bible, predicted all of this nearly two
thousand years ago. For we read in 2 Timothy 3:1-3,
"This know that In the last days perilous times shall
come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covet­
ous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient, to parents,
unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreak­
ers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, dispisers cf those
that are good, traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of
pleasures more than lovers of God.*
This description is almost like the headlines of our
daily newspapers.
I am no prophet as such, so I am not going to say
what is the future of our nation. But certainly, from
where I alt. It does not look rosey. Terrible times. I am
certain are just around the corner. It is still true, and
always will be true that "Righteousness cxalteth a nation,
but sin is a reproach to any people." Proverbs 14:34.
In view of all of this, what about the individual? What
about you? Can "you look the future square in the eye
and have Inner peace? Only you can answer that.
However, if your answer Is in the negative. It does
not have to be. For God has made provisions for you In
the midst of troubled times. The apostle Paul also goes
on to Instruct Timothy In the light of these predicted

Paul points Timothy to God's Word the Bible. He
says it is "Able to make thee wise unto salvation." How
true this is! The Bible contains "Good News" for you.
right now.
What is the good news? It is given In this passage—
"That Christ died for our sins according to the Scrip­
tures, that he was burled, and that he rose again the
third day. . .’’ I Cor. 15:3,4. And as a result. He. Christ,
offers you eternal life, inner peace and stability, and an
abundant life lull of purpose and meaning. Np matter
what are your circumstances All that is required of you
is “to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shall
be saved." Acts 16:31. Saved from the consequences of
sin—spiritual death and eternal separation from God and
saved from the coining judgment which shall befall the
earth, 2 Peter 3:10.
It certainly is wonderful to know that there are ans­
wers for our day. They are found In the Bible and
through the person of Jesus Christ. For His Word is
truth.
We, at Algonquin Lake Bible Church have found the
Bible to be an up-to-date book and pertinent to our
times. We believe its message, study its teachings, and
find it gives one the answer to the dellma of modem life
Come, join with us In its study and discover Its truth for
yourself. Then you too will be able to say like the Psal­
mist. "God Is our refuge and strength, a very present
help In trouble, therefore will not we fear, though the
earth be removed, and though the mountains be car­
ried Into the midst of the sea." Psalm 46:1,2.

Let’s consider a Nature
Craft hobby In today’s col­
umn that I am sure will
be a lot of fun if you are
an artist.
The death of
■ our elm trees has been
a sad event for those of us
who love trees but there
has been one small bless­
ing that has resulted if
we but seek it out. On
some of these huge dead
trees where moisture con­
ditions have been right
there have grown large
shelf like fungi - some
nearly two feet across.
The bottom faces of these
fungi, where the spores
form, in many Instances
there is a smooth white
surface which makes a fine
surface for painting.
All you need do is care­
fully break the fungus from
the tree trunk and let it
dry. Some have Irregul­
arities which will challenge
the artist to go creative
in three dimensions.
If
there are cracks or flaws
-or other surface imperfec­
tions they can be filled with
plastic wood or wood fil­
ler and sanded and given
a good coat of paint pri­
mer.
Either oils or acrylic
paints work well on tfie
surface. My son Ivan found
a fungus measuring 22
inches across and painted
an interesting landscape
for his pa for Christmas
and it was much appre­
ciated. I have seen some
fine work done on fungi
by Judge Barnett of Hast­
ings in days past.
Another possibility in
the craft angle using the
fungi is to carve the white
surface using a knife or
chisels.
When you cut
through the white coat you
expose a dark red under
color. You might try carv­
ing a distinctive house
number on one.
Collecting and carving
or painting fungi makes an
excellent objective for a
hike in the woods and It
represents the kind of re­
source we can freely use
without harming anyone or
our environment. With the
abundance of dead elms
we should have many of
them for several years.
The fungus continues to
grow in size until the tree
rots away so leave the
small ones to grow up,
•They grow on other kinds
of trees besides elms.
If your specimens need
trimming they can easily
be cut with a iiand saw.
Perhaps some of the read­
ers of this column will have
some other ways to use
these fungi in arts and
crafts. I have seen small
ones used effectively in
dried
flower arrange­
ments.

KEEPSAKE TREASURE OF NATIONAL

With the spotlight on the White House recently, be­
cause of the wedding of Tricia Nixon and Edward Finch
Cox. it is interesting to note that Master Craftsman.
Frank Kenfleld, owns a rare book, published in 1882.
titled. "The Ladles of the White House; or. In the Home
of the Presidents.” This volume, with an omate, em­
bossed leather cover, written by Laura C. Holloway. The
book naturally begins with Martha Washington and ends
with Lucretia Rudolph Garfield. This account is beau­
tifully written and is fascinating reading not only as bio­
graphies but as a complete history of each era as re­
lated to social and domestic lives. The portraits of the
wives and the ladies who presided over the Mansion
during the administrations of unmarried Presidents arc
choice copies of the originals.
In this age of Women’s Lib the following quotes from
the preface are pertinent today: "The moral influence
that has been exerted by the untarnished reputations
and high social qualities of the women who have succes­
sively filled the position of Hostess of the Presidents’
House, can net be estimated. Without-the effective and
intelligent aid they rendered, no administration would
have’been satisfactory; and though the political historian
may ignore such service, the right-thinking, honorable
men and women of this country have a higher apprecia­
tion of the services rendered by these ladles, who were the
power behind the throne, equal In social influence to the
throne Itself, and a historical work bearing upon their
lives, is a valuable contribution to the nation’s official
history.’’
“At a time the women of this country arc command­
ing the attention of the civilized world by reason of
their higher education, superior mental attributes, and
exhalted social status, such a book is of exceptional
value.’’
Many years ago this particular book was given to
Frank’s mother by a neighbor friend and knowing her
son's interest in early historical things, she passed It on
to him and it is one of his possessions that he cherishes.
Much of the material in the book was being presented to
the public for the first time. It is a store house of in­
formation for any scholar writing a dlscertatlon about
'any of the administrations from Washington to Garfield.
SUMMERTIME FUN WITH A PRIZE

Mention of a book usually suggests the thought of
libraries and in this instant It is a specific one—the Has­
tings Public Library.
One ot the books on the shelves there is a big tome
titled, ‘The Best Loved Poems of the American Peo­
ple." This was edited and the selections made by Hazel *
Felleman. They are poems most frequently asked for by
the readers of the New York Times Book Reivew, through
its "Queries and Answers" Department. (Miss Felleman
was editor of Q. St A. for many yean.)
All of this raises the question for everyone—what is
your favorite poem? Now there Is not too much point in
such a query unless it develops as a sort of warm weath­
er game for leisure time and that is exactly what has
happened. Prom the hundreds of poems in this collection
one has been selected at random and If your favorite
poem is the same as the one chosen (it’s listed in a seal­
ed envelope at the H.P.L.) you will win $25.00. If there

By Mona Kelly
In a day of pollution of every kind, people living and
dying from various uStes of drugs, gaining weight because
nourishing food is over-priced and meats are found to
contain harmful amounts of insecticides and mercury,
when scientists invent substitutes for carbohydrates and
then tell you they are dangerous to your health, when
the world Is on edge ready to explode the atom at a word,
what can one person do? What can one lone person do
,?????
When you are outnumbered by the people who knows
what goes on inside yet outwardly don’t seem to care
and apathy is the big word, does one Just give up, take a
drug to escape, climb in a hole and seal yourself off? v
What docs one person do? When vital organs get passed
around like outgrown clothes, what then?
One person can start by taking care of himself and
home, by finding out truly what he believes and what
he wants. But one person can not do this by sitting in
front of the ’’Tube,” shaking his head and not believing
what it painful to believe. The world is here, the prob­
lems are not impossible.
When one person takes up the late President Ken­
nedy’s challenge to "Ask not what your country can do
for you. Ask what you can do for your country," find
an answer, don’t mumble the question and plug your ears.

The Interest and enthu­
siasm for tennis in this
Town is almost unbeliev­
able, considering the low
point the game had reached
a couple of year8 ago. Much
of the increased activity
is due to former betters
who have continued playing
the game —Dennis Cleve­
land, Bob Stack, Steve Loft­
us, et. al—and to Hastings
High Tennis Coach Tom
Freridge.
More courts are needed,
and if the Federal grant
comes through,'^ fine fac­
ility will be installed in
the new First Ward Park
being developed on land
presented the City by the
Hastings Mfg. Company.
Director of Public Ser­
vices Mike Ktovaitfcti is all
set to .go. He plans on a
120 by 120-foot square, sur­
faced for two tennis courts.
With the emphasis on “use
by many,’’ the square will
also include four back­
boards for basketball and
a color coated south end for
shuffle board. The square

ra ay be used for outside
moonlight* dances. It will
also be used as a roller
skating rink, and in the
winter for ice skating.
The square will drain
slightly to the center to
hold water, and will have
a slight curb if Mike has
his way.
The new park should be
a dandy.
It will have
restroom facilities, a soft­
ball diamond, playground
equipment and, of course,
it will be landscaped. It
will have tables, too.
It all hinges on the Fed­
e ral grant of $32,670. The
City adds $8,167.
We’d like to see the old
tennis courts at the First
Ward Park resurfaced, and
additional courts at John­
son Field.

There 1$ always some­
thing nag and interesting
that develops tn connection
with the old-time canpon
and musket shoots featured
at Charlton Park diirlng
these past few years, even
though the basic program
is much the same. One
reason for this is that the
actors in the drama, so to
speak, are an enthusiastic
group of historical buffs
who seem to have an un­
limited fund of knowledge
concerning the construc­
tion and performance of
cannon and guns dating
from the era of the Amer­
ican
Revolution and up
through the Civil War.
That, in itself, makes for
some worthwhile “listen­
ing*' when you engage them
in conversation—and most
of* them, hams that they
are, love to talk about their
specialties.

Their chosen pastime la
by no means an inexpen­
sive one.
The ordnance
they use, either original
or exact replicas of ori­
ginals can run from sev­
eral himdred to several
thousand dollars per item.
Members are expected to
be well versed in the historic units they represent
and on the firing line must
be willing to submit to
rigid rules of procedure
both for their own safety
and that of the spectators.

I A special feature of the
Charlton
Park “shoot’’
this year was a demon­
stration of the “Brown
Bess’’ smooth bore, muz­
zle loader, used by the
British against the Colonial
troops
commanded
by
George Washington.
The
three men taking part were
dressed in the cumber­
some, ornate uniform worn
by British regulars during
the Revolutionary cam­
paigns—uniforms that ob­
viously were nut designed
for
American
summer
weather and which made the
“Red Coats” standout tar­
gets against any back­
ground.
The inaccurate fire of
the “Brown Bess” wasdemonstrated during the tar­
get shoot at close range
and the complicated load­

ing and priming procedure
made it evident why these
weapons were practically
useless in a high wind or
during
rainy
weather.
Neither the British, nor
the Americans, who used
a similar type of musket,
could place too much re­
liance on the fire power
capabilities of these tem­
permental weapons.
Both sides had their pro­
blems—especially the Col­
onials who were never pro­
perly supported in the field
and often had to exist on
near starvation rations.
Thus one can’t help but be
amazed at the spirit that
kept them going—or at
least enough of them to see
the Revolution through to
a successful conclusion.
For that spirit and that
persistence, all of us today
should be extremely grate­
ful.
The beginning of the
musket and cannon shoot
at Charlton Park on Satur­
day, July 3, coincided al­
most to the hour of that
time, one hundred and eight
years ago, when Confed­
erate troops under Gen.
Robert E. Lee at Gettysberg, uflleashed a concen­
trated
artillery fire, ex­
ceeding anything ever be­
fore attempted in a mili­
tary campaign.
The ob­
jective was to soften up a
portion of Cemetery Ridge
In preparation for Pic­
kett's charge to reduce the
Union left flank and drive
them from strongly en­
trenched positions.
With considerable skill
and secrecy, the Confed­
erates bad assembled more

Jacqueline Battiste
Barry County Peace Com­
mittee
To the Editor:
1 am writing to commend
the county for the spraying
along the roads they have
done and wish they could
do more. If the lady from
Fair Lake would like to
have the roadsides mowed
let her suggest to the county
that they buy extra equip­
ment for the taxpayers to
pay for this project.
We farmer* cannot af­
ford to put our expensive
machinery
along
these
roadsides and ruin them
in the tin cans and bottles
that are thrown there. Most
farm boys, if they are capable, are busy at home
anyway.
At least if the county did
it all are obliged to help
pay for it. If the farmers
did it they are stuck with
all the repairs. The county
could not posslblypay them
enough to cover damage
to equipment.
Since the township dump
started charging for dump­
ing you can really see the
difference along the roads.
I have yet to see why it
costs more to run this
dump this year than In
previous years.

“The streets of our
country are in turmoil. The
universities are filled with

Russia is threatening us
with her might. And the
republic is in danger. Yesdanger from within and
without. We need law and
order! . . . Without law
and order our nation can

Do you agree with the
above? Doesn’t it describe
our country and what it

needs completely? Isn'lt
it the only solution to our
problems?
Wouldn’t you
vote for the great man
who wrote that?
A man
like that could put these

�Million Dollar Rain
Saturates Barry County
“That was a million dol­

Extension Director Arthur

opened for business Tues­
day, July 6.
Steeby was referring to
—the steady rain which be­
gan Sunday evening, July
4, and continued most of
the night until early Mon­
day afternoon, July 5, gent­
ly soaking the parched
earth with L94 inches of
rain.

Uo Steeby, oustandlng

were grateful for the pre­
cipitation. “It surely will
jtelp the corn—it will help
everything.” Seeberpoint­
ed out that the corn hadn't
suffered too much and had
been curling only on hot
days^

will grow and the second
cutting of hay will come

It was really
the first good rain we've
had all year,” Steeby con­
tinued.
“it was like a Spring
rain, and ft helped the corn
the most.
The wheat is
pretty well along and it
will also help the soybeans
and wvy beans.”

While the rain was gen­
erally gentle, thfen road

�Exploring The County
by Lansing Gilbert
As far as I know there
are no bedrock exposures
in Barry County though are
outcrops in Ionia. Eaton
and Kent Counties.
Our
surface features with the
dramatic hills and valleys
are all piles of material
left by glacial action and
subsequent erosion.
However studies of Basic
Michigan Geology and maps
compiled from oil and
water well lop tell us much
about what lies under the
surface soil blanket. The
blanket is heavy in Barry
County often *hundreds of
feet deep,
Most of the
material is from areas
north of us.
Geologists believe that
soil and rock materials re­
presenting
nearly
200,000,000 years of earth
history once occupied this
land we live on but they

were swept away south to
Indiana by glaciers or
otherwise eroded away.
They must have been fair­
ly soft materials for the
most part. For example
the world of the Dinosaurs
is one that we have little
if any record of in Mich­
igan.
Under the existing earth
cover under much of the
county lies a world of sand­
stone. Some of it is the
same
sandstone
that
comes to the surface near

3
3

Marshall
Michigan and
also up at the tip of the
thumb of Michigan. It is
called Marshall Sandstone
and is a very wonderful
layer of rock many feet
thick. In some places in
our county is another sand­
stone layer known as Napolian Sandstme from out­
crops near Napgeon.
This sandstone is a great
treasure for, being porous,
it is a great water re­
servoir.
Many Michigan
homes and cities draw wafrom wells drilled into
this sandstone.
Much of
the water has been trapped
there from the melting wa­
ters of the glaciers and
Is sometimes called fos­
sil water. The sandstone
is sometimes very uniform
and they used to mine It
In Grindstone City to make
the sharpening stones that
kept many of the double
bitted woodsmen’s axes
sharp in bygone days.
This remarkable world
of sandstone beneath our
feet must have been on the
surface for many thou­
sands of years befge world
conditions caused it to be
buried for it is deeply er­
oded and deep valleys have
been plotted in the forma­
tion. In the southwestern
townships it has been er­
oded away exposing a com­
pletely different rock in
the form of Coldwater

Shale - named from the
town of Coldwater.
This fine textured mat­
erial,
probably
com­
pressed from mud in an
inland sea, must have had
a
completely
different
source from the overlying
sandstone. It to is many
feet thick and must have
been a long time form­
ing.
Sandstone as its name
implies is made from sand
and it comes mostly from
the quartz crystals from
granite type rocks. This
suggests a source in the
granite mountains of the
east or north while the
shale probably came from
western
fine
textured
prairie soils or a simi­
lar
source.
A
whole
science of Pale geography
has grown up as men try
to unravel the story of
these buried worlds.
Covering the Napoleon
sandstone in a broad band
extending from Eastern Ir­
ving Township through the
Hastings area and ex­
tending In the direction of
Assyria is another base
rock formation consisting
of shale, sand and shale
mixed, dark red sandstone,
gypsum and quite a bodge
podge of rock materials.
It is known as the Michi­
gan formation.
A diagonal bed of Bay­

port Limestone shows on
the Michigan Centennial
Geological map as stretch­
ing from west of Freeport
through the Charlton Park
Area and eventually emer­
ging on the surface in Eaton
County in the limestone
quarry near Bellevue. It
also underlies the north­
east corner of the/ county
beyond Woodland.;
This
limestone contains many
fossils as well as spark­
ling x crystals of pyrite
“fooirgold.”
This all adds up into five
different worlds buried un­
der Barry county that would
be exposed if our surface
material
were
to
be
scraped away.
While some of these
worlds contain fossils of
plants and animals-mostly
sea life-others are barren
of life and indicate desert
conditions unfavorable for
life.
The story -of what is
beneath Barry County is a
long one and there are
many mysteries and this
is but a taste of the chal­
lenging things there are to
learn. We will try to ex­
plore the subject further
later on._________________

German Visitor Enjoys Stay
Gunter Sander, caught by the
camera at an American pichic,
has been here from Germany
visiting bls sister, Ingeborg
Strimback and family, residents
of Hastings.
Mrs. Strimback
treats her brother to^a typical
“cola” refreshment
during a
hamburger cook-out in the park.
In his first visit to the United
States, Sander admits he was “a
little disappointed” at first be­
cause this country isn't quite
like he- bad pictured It in his
dreams as a small boy. But,
given every opportunity to see
and do more by his willing hosts,
Gunter says be Is getting to
like it much more. . .now that
It's about time to leave for home.
Sander is a city bank manager
In the mayor’s office to the City
Teublitz Opf. Bavaria, and has
been asked to run for mayor next
year, an opportunity which, to
date, has not interested him.
Mrs, Strimback and her fam-

ily have been showing their Ger­
man visitor aU tbe Barry county
and Michigan aspects of Amer­
ican culture and customs which
he finds favorable to tbe many
other countries he makes a hobby
of visiting. His American rela­
tives are doing their best to
change his favorite country from
Spain to America. “Nothing,”
Gunter admits, however, “could
take the place of beautiful Ba­
varia” which, the local family

reluctantly admits “is the way It
should be.”
Gunter, who was scheduled to
return to Germany last weekend,
finds his favorite American food
(what else?) to be hamburgers
and milk shakes. Tbe Banner
sincerely hopes Gunter thor­
oughly enjoyed his six-week visit
to this country and extends a

Scouts Camp At Grand Valley
Twaive scouts and one

Troop 50 spent an enjoy­
able week at the Grand

near Barryton from June
27 to July 3.
Max Frohlich Jr, was
the advisor for the second
year.
The scouts worked on
merit hedges and advance­
ments. Several completed
requirements for various
ranks and earned a total
of ten merit badges. Warm
weather help to make this
one of the best summer
camps to recent years.
Troop SO won the land

Olympics on Tuesday and
then on Friday won the
Water
Olyngilcs.
This
makes It a record third
straight year that Troop
50 has won the Olympics
at the scout reservation.
For their winning efforts
the scouts received two

The watermelons soon dis­
appeared but the plaque will

God loved the man and formed a plan, before He

CHURCH OF THE WEEK
*
The second major build­

On July 17, 1856, Zion
Lutheran Church of Wood­
land was founded by ap­
proximately 20 families.
Its
nationalistic
back­
ground reflects that of tbe
Woodland Community.
The cornerstone of the
older portion of the church
structure reads: German
Lutheran Zion Church. For
many years it was re­
ferred to in almost all
instances as the “German
Church” for the very rea­
son that it was founded by
men and women who came
from Germany and that they
used the German language
for many years.

Content as these early
pioneers were with their
material progress and set­
tlement of the pommunlty,
nevertheless
they were
concerned
about
their
spiritual welfare too. They
longed to have the Means
of Grace, the Word of God
and the Sacraments, ad­
ministered among them.
Their
Bibles,
prayer­
books, sermon books, hym­
nals and other devotional
books were their close
companions.
Initial wor­
ship services were con­
ducted in homes of the
area.
As years passed and the

ing program in the con­
gregation’s
history took
place in the early 1960’s
when a new sanctuary with
classrooms and additional
facilities were built, con­
verting the old sanctuary
to a multipurpose room,
fellowship hall and gym­
nasium. Dedication ser^m
vices were hold on

R«v. Randall J. Mett

A popular song of a few
years ago has some lyrics
which I have found diffi-’
cult to put out of my mind
as time has passed. The
first few lines- are as fol­
lows:
“What’s it all about, Alfie?
Is it just for tbe moment
we live?
What's it all about when
you sort it out, Alfie?
Are we meant to take more
.than we give—
j*- are we meant to be

And if only fools are kind,
Alfie,
Then 1 guess it is wise
to be cruel.
And if life belongs only to
the strong, Alfie,
What will we lend on an
old golden rule?”

It is one of those ques­
tions which every man must
answer in one way or
another in his life. What’s
it all about? What’s life
all about when you sort it
out? What does it mean to
li«*e? . If we say that it is.
to enjoy good health, then
death is defeat. If we say
that it is knowledge, then
old age and forgetfulness
is defeat. It we say that
it is wealth, then inflation
and anything less than 100%

return on an investment
is defeat and the poor or
those just average really
haven’t lived.
.
What’s
it all about;
what’s life all about? These
are some large, imposing

questions. Maybe they can
be stated another way:
What makes you tick? What
is it that prompts and mo­
tivates you in your living?
Every man has something
within him-which tends to
control him.
It may be
love of bis family. It may
be passion, for power or
prestige.
It may be an
appetite for certain plea­

sure*. It may be a desire
The message of
the
Bible, the gospel of Jesus
Christ is the message and
good news of life and«what

Your decisions will always
be first and foremost—
what does this do to the
Kingdom? Obviously you
will still have a family,

it’s all about.

a
business,
ambitions,
pleasures.
But they will
be subsumed, swallowed
up, governed by the con­
siderations of the King­
dom. It may actually be
that yOr life with the fam­
ily and business will be
mge rich and meaningful
than ever before. But this
will be the side effects,
the dividends of the King­
dom.
What’s it all about? Is
It only for the moment
that we live? Surely not,
-for we are men fashimed,
created and set apart to
not be grovelers In the
dirt, but sons of God and
Inhabitants of the Kingdom!
And all of life is seen in
this perspective. For this
we were created, for this
we were redeemed by the
cross, and this 'we now
are by grace, alone. It is
the gift God gives us in
Christ for this life and
eternity.
If we count as tbe dear­
est treasure ofall the mar­
velous gift of sonshlp with
God in His Kingdom, then
there is a style of life
which captures us and
which
will control
What’s it all about? The
answer to that question will
depend greatly igjon where
your treasure is, what your
treasure is. “Seek first
his kingdom and his right­
eousness, and all these
things shall be yours as
welL” This is His invio­
late promise.
Count on
it!______________________

As

he

reads tbe ancient words
of the Scriptures and lis­
tens to the teachings of
tbe Christ, more and more
he is Impressed with how
much these words and this
message speaks to the sit­
uations and realities of
men’s lives today. To the.
question of what life is all
about, some may say that
it is nothing more than
an unending succession of
anxieties
about
many
things. Today we are anx­
ious about many things,
many impgtant things. Je­
sus talked abOt our anx­
ieties too, our anxieties
concerning many of the ne­
cessities of life and He
reassure^ us that the God
who created us knows our
many needs. They are im­
portant to Him as they
are to us, but maybe they
aren’t the ssentials. And
what is tiial which is es­
sential?
”, . .seek first
his kingdom and his right­
eousness, and all these
things shall be yours as
well.” And prior to these
words, Matthew records
Jesus saying: ’’For where
your treasure is, there will
be your heart also.” Jesus
talked about a kingdom that
would threaten to control
a man.
If you have the
courage, or Indiscretion to
enter this kingdom, your
life will never be the same
again.
The Kingdom of
God is not something that
you have as a hobby, like
golf or music. Christ said
some very strong things
about the Kingdom. If you
are In it at all, it tends
to elbow everything else
to tbe side — your fam­
ily, your business, your
politics, your pleasures.

Buerge, who carries a nine
handicap now but who has long
been a fine golfer, sank his
first bole in one ever on the
136-yard 13th at the Hastings
Country Club Monday, July 5.
And we witnessed the shot.
Hal and his wife, Peg, had
played the first nine with Helen
and Pete LubienieckL
The
Lubienlecki’s didn't go on and
Old Buzz joined the Buerges
for the second nine. Hal was
the only one over on 10, 11 and
12. He stepped up on No. 13
tee and hit a 6 iron. The shot
was beautiful. The ball landed
21 feet in line with the cub,
took a small divot and rolled
on into the hole. Not known
for his reticence, Hal for once
was speechless.
He turned
and said: “It’s in the hole.”

was attending a four week "Hur­

Island Outward Bound
School” off the coast of Maine.
A “highlight” of the many out­
door experiences he had was
being placed on the island.
For three days be had to find
hsi own food—which Included
beach peas, orach (something
like and tastes as good as spin­
ach} and sea food.
Rick and the other boys also
sailed on three and five-day ex­
peditions. On one trip the 32foot boat was calmed, and the
boys spent three days rowing
the 70 miles back to their home
island.
The day before leaving for
home the 153 boys ran a 6 1/2
mite maratbon over very rough
terrains. His time was 51 min­
utes and 25 seconds and be came
in 56th.

1928 Plymouth Business Coupe

ONE OF OUR BEST YEARS.
It takes something special to come
up with a Vintage Year. But that's
what 71 has been for ChryslerPlymouth. Everything-from draw­
ing board to final assembly-has
come together in great fashion. We
like to think our slogan "Coming
Through" had a lot to do with it, be­
cause it's more than a phrase. It's
a pledge, a dedication to one pur­
pose: To come through for you with
the kind of automobiles you wantnot only in style, size and pricebut also in quality you can live
with for years to come. A
good example is Plymouth
Duster

ECONOMY CAN BE
BEAUTIFUL, TOO.
Plymouth Duster is a rare breed of
economy car. It comes through
small enough for easy handling
and good gas mileage, big enough
for families with baggage Now add
Duster's high resale value(a leader
in its class, along with other Plym­
outh compacts), and you have a
rare breed of economy car indeed.

NOW, A GREAT SELECTION
COMING THROUGH FINAL
CLEARANCE PRICED.
71 has been a Vintage Year for
Chrysler-Plymouth. Quality shines
and shows in every line. Drive a
Plymouth or Chrysler. Prove how
our 71 models have come through.
Checkourgreatselection. We think
you'll agree: quality cars al final
clearance prices is what "Coming
Through" is all about. For us.
For you.

                  <text>Residents Upset With $5.5 Million
The $5.5 million additional
tax assessment slapped on
Barry (Wily by the State Tax

as to how the additional tax
must be spread, but he could
find nothing in the tax laws
telling him how to spread the
tax.
Craig said there had been
eight appeals to the State Tax
Commission of valuations plac­
ed on commercial property had
all been successful, with the
State lowering the assessments
from $2,000 to $10,000. Barry
County Equalization Director
Milton Buehler said he believed
Craig had done the right thing
too.
At the July 12 Hastings City
Council
meeting, Aiderman
Hamaty made a motion to have
the increased equalized valua­
tion spread over all properties,
and that property owners who

Commission didn't please anyone and the manner in which
Hastings* share was spread by
City Assessor Floyd Craig up­
set others, particularly Fourth
Ward A Ider man George Ham­
aty.
Aiderman Hamaty objected
___
to
Craig's
spreading
the
$1,048,433 increase only on re­
sidential property, and not m
^M^commercial and industrial as
•

W^FXssessor
Craig said he
x^spread it only on residential
as valuations placed on com­
mercial properties were al­
ready “too high.” Craig said
there may be a legal question

had already paid too .much re-»
ceive refunds, and others r&amp;‘
ceive a new statement. The
motion lost for want of sup­
port.
Assessor Craig said his
studies have shown that sales

of residential property gen­

erally had been higher than
the assessments.
”1 didn't
feel Justified in slapping ad­
ditional
valuations on com­
mercial property,” Craig said.
“I felt justified in spreading
it on residential property based
on my study of sales and ap­
praisals.”
Craig said the Increase in
residential property may be
eight to nine percent.
“My

complete study will be avail­

able about the first of the year,”
Grajg added.
The Increase in municipal
taxes isn't all due to tte hike
in valuations, Craig pointed out.

The rate in 1970 was $12.25 and
would have been $14 without
the hike in equalized valua­
tions.
The hike in tax base
brought down the rate to $13.55.
Hastings property owners on
July 1 got their Summer tax
bills wRh the rate of $13.55
per $l,d00 valuation plus the
one percent collection charge.
A former $1,000 valuation
in Hastings now Is $1078.50.
The Hastings* factor of the in­

crease was 1.0785 or $78.50
per $1,000 valuation.
Hastings total city tax bill

�Editorial

Voice of the People |

R.M.C.
Possibly the greatest harm resulting from the premature
release of the stolen "Pentagon Papers*' comes from the
fact they do not present the full story of the war and that
there are not on the staffs of any newspapers in the United
States, journalists or editorial writers who hare the spe­
cialized training needed to competently digest the volumes
of material Involved.
Thus, the end result is likely to be more confusion over
the issues Involved rather than clarification of same.
For example, the papers are incomplete in that they

appear to show policy decisions without explaining or giv­
ing a proper background for the reasons those decisions

were made.
This being the case, how can one conclude that decisions
were made in an attempt to deceive or whether they were
based on facts and reasons that at the time seemed justi­
fied in protecting the Interests of the United States?
Decisions that appear wrong in the backward glance of
history do not necessarily prove that they were illogical,
or tainted or based on deceit at the time they were
made.
One of the first speeches made by John F. Kennedy as
a newly-elected congressman concerned the downfall of
Chiang Kai-shek when he denounced the Truman adminis­
tration for its China policy and predicted that "This
House must now assume the responsibility of preventing
the onrushing tide of Communism from engulfing all of
Asia."
He was a proponent of the "domino theory"
and believed to the day of his assassination that if the
Communists took over Vietnam they would bowl over
the rest of Southern Asia. As President, Mr. Kennedy
sent his Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson to Saigon
in May of 1961 to assure Ngo Dinh Diem of our continu­
ing interest In him.

Although we, personally seldom
found ourselves in accord with
Kennedy policies, we thought
he was an intelligent and
personable young statesman.
Does all of this indicate deceit or an intent to keep
facts from tha-American people? We think not. Although
we, personally, seldom found ourselves in accord with
the Kennedy policies, we thought he was an intelligent
and personahje young statesman, intent on rendering

good service to his country.
In a Saigon news conference in February, 1962, a
British reporter asked Robert F. Kennedy, right hand
man of his brother, the President: "American boys are
dying out here.
Do the American people understand
and approve?"
Mr. Kennedy answered: "I think the
American people understand and fully support this strug­
gle."
Yet, in 1968, at the time of his assassinatlm,
Sen. Robert Kennedy was the foremost Dove in the
presidential race.
Does this indicate that Mr. Kennedy in 1962 was de­
liberately attempting to deceive the American people.
We think not, because at that time, American opinion
was in sympathy with the effort being made to preserve
the Independence of South Viet Nam. Also, he was un­
doubtedly guided then by the facts in his possession.
At that time, as the closest advisor of his brother, he
was in a position to know all of the information avail­
able to the President
Later, his position radically
changed and be became a leading critic of the war and
the policies of the Johnson Administration.
His op­
position, pointing to a sharp division within the De­
mocratic party undoubtedly was one of the factors that
prompted President Johnson to come forward with his
dramatic, emotlou-charged announcement of hla with­

drawal u a candidate for renomlnatlon.
It Is easy now to see that the’U.S. war Involvement
in Viet Nam was a mistake—not because our Intent was
dishonorable but ratber because we Ignored a basic
tenet laid down by Gen. Douglas MacArthur following
Korea to the effect that, “Never again let the United
Stales get Involved In a war It doesn't Intend to win.'*
We-also ignored President Elsenhower's warning against
Involvement of U.S. combat troops on tbs mainland of

Asia.
People tend to forget tbat even ton years ago, the
tear of the spread of Communism throughout the world

was vary real and a take-over by their armies of one
weak nation at a time, throughout Asia, very probable
unless some outside assistance was given to those who
wished to resist Communist rule.
If the United States bad done nothing at the time,
under those conditions. It Is more than probable that
our government, as a leader of the so-called "free

4

world" would have been criticized both here and abroad

for timidity and inaction.
Personally, we have never accepted the premise that
the U.S. Senate, Including those members who are now
the most vociferous doves, were pressured by false
Information into voting for the Bay of Tonkin Resolution
which- gave the President unlimited and unrestrained
authority in regard to the conduct of the military action
in Viet Nam.
Rather, it seems to us that the Senate
was ready and willing to sidestep a momentous and
disagreeable responsibility and pass on all control author­
ity to the President—A Chief Executive, who, it must
be admitted, seemed anxious and willing to exercise this
power. This last, however, does not excuse the Senate
for its part in the rapid escalation of the war that
followed.
Now the war is in process of being defused. Yet,
because the pace of withdrawal is not as rapid as some
think it should be, the administration is being as
severely crltized as was the Johnson Administration
during the process of build up. Thus, in our opinion,
the goal of a reasmable and fair settlement is being
unduly delayed since our obvious and loudly proclaimed
division of opinion is very evident In Hanoi. So, why
should they tie in a hurry to negotiate seriously when

time and U.S. division of opinion is obviously working
on their side?
In Great Britain where there is a better balanced
understanding of the Vietnam problem than is often
evident over here where conclusions are often based on
emotions ratber than facts, the London Daily Telegraph
had this to say in regard to the current situation?
"One of the dirtiest tricks of war is to maltreat
enemy prisoners and then to offer to release them in
return for decisive concessions on the field of battle.
Such is the appalling extent of America's demoraliza­
tion over Vietnam that the American Senate itself a
week ago passed a resolution for the complete abandon­
ment of South Vietnam on these terms.
Fortunately
President Nixon resisted and the House of Representa. fives supported him.
Since then, however, American
morale and the government's prestige have been dragged
down even further by the rake’s progress in the Viet­
nam secrets affair. North Vietnam has not been slow
in moving in for what it hopes will be the psycholglcal
warfare kill."
There are those would simply have the U.S. get out
of Viet Nam as fast as the troops can get to boats—
or to set in advance an artificial deadline for with­
drawal, regardless of what conditions may be at the
time. Nothing is said of the prisoners of war left behind
to their fate by an enemy who has shown little ten­
dency for fair and humane treatment of such prisoners.
Is this what America really wants?
Are we really
so divided and lacking in spirit tbat we would debase
ourselves to this extent? These prisoners, let us not
forget, are American who went there not by choice
but ratber as an obligation of Citizenship. If you had a
son in a Hanoi prison camp, would you think it an act
of honor or an act of justice on the part of the United
States to run away and leave them to their fate?

One for All

Disagrees
With Editorial
To the Editor:
Your editorial of July
7, 1971, showed a level of
understanding of the facts
and feelings in this country
that is less than the average
grade
school
childcerlainly less than that ex­
pected of one in the posi­
tion of "community lead­
er."
While the entire popula­
tion of this country has been
or is now revulsed at the
lies and hlpocracy used by

our government over the
last decade to justify the
total genocide of the South
Vietnamese people, your
paper continues to support
th^ war in every way; While

most people understand the
sacredness of the freedom
of speech and with it civil
disobedience, your paper
tells its readers that free
speech is wrong because,

while maybe not in tbe
case of the Pentagon Pap­
ers - "but there may be
others" - the disclosure
of tbe truth may harm the
national security. What you
are saying is, discontinue
tbe right of free speech;
tbe people can't be trusted
to know.
I submit to you tbalfl
there had been more pt^
pie
willing
to require,
"purloin" and discuss the
facts about tbe war and bow
it actually developed and
less people willing to speak

any facts, there might be
something more than a
shadow left of Amerlcatbe land of the free, the
friend of the oppressed.

Sincerely,

To the Editor:
I would like to address
this letter to whoever
wrote the editorial in tbe
July 7 issue. This coun­
try is a democracy. A
democracy means gov­
ernment by the people.
If the people are to gov­
ern wisely, they must
have the facts—all of the
facts.
This means that
the government has no
right to hide anything
from tbe people. Because

the government has tailed
In its duty to keep the
people Informed on what
It Is doing, the Times
was forced to take on this
responsibility by printing
tbe “Pentagon Papers.*’
Therefore the “Pentagon
Papers" were not stolen.
If there Is anything Il­
legal It Is the tact that
the government withheld
this
vital Information
from the people.

W. R. Cook,
I would like to thank you
Publisher
for tbe tine publicity that

you gave tbe Hickory Corn­
HATH YEAR •

tion with our “Clean Up
Week" and our “Postal Controlled circulation postage
paid at post office, Hastings,
Service Day." Your coop­ Michigan 40058,
eration brought attention
to our Post office as'well MAILED MAINLY FREE IN
THE HASTINGS TRADE AREA.

We think not. Rather this Is a situation where that
old saying,
“One for all and all for one,*' should
apply. Our Nation must hold together long enough

for a settlement that, although short of the Ideal, would
among other things Insure the safe release of American
prisoners.
The New York Times, we believe, made a grievlous
error tbat it will ultimately regret In publishing the
stolen Pentagon Papers under present circumstances.
The publication has done little toward clarification of
the reasons for pur involvement given the background
of the facts and circumstances governing key policy
decisions. Thus the publication has confused rather than
clarified the Issue and has led to further serious Internal
division at a time when a show of unity was needed.
Publication of stolen papers of this Importance repre­
sents, we believe, a very low ebb In Journalistic ethics­
something that can eventually react unfavorably on the
entire profession.

The Happiest People are those

Stony Point Prospers
The
history of
tbe
Stoney Point Free Meth­
odist Church, known for­
merly as tbe Castleton
Free Methodist Church.
The church was built
in 1875 following a re­
vival held in the com­
munity by a Reverand
Withham. It was the first
Free Methodist church to
be built in Barry County.
In 1914 the church was
struck by lightning and
destroyed. Within a cou­
ple of years it was re­
built as it is now.
Charles Mead, a long
time
member of the
Church, related this In­
cident: It rained stones
within a few yards of tbe
church.
Many
people
found this incident hard
to believe, but there were
several witnesses. This
resulted in the change of
the name of the church
from Castleton to Stoney
Point.
The Church was closed
two or three years in the
1940’s, but the member­

In 1970 the General
Church proposed a mer­
ger with the Hastings
Free Methodist Church
because
Stoney
Point
didn’t have a pastor. But
tbe members of the con­
gregation felt the need
of
leaving the church
doors open. They prayed
hard and the Lord sent
a pastor, Rev. Lila Manker. This past year has
been very fruitful with an
attendance averaging in
tbe 40’s.
“We
are
expecting
great things at the bands
of The Lord,” the pastor
said.

we
appreciate
tbe
space the Banner has
given the churches of
Barry County to give ex­
pression to the needs of
our community.
We as a nation face
uncertainty.
Tbe next
few months will be the
most crucial of tbe year
197L The moral decline
of our society, the riots,
the vandalism Is'ever
prevalent God alone can
save usI
*1 read recently of a
■pup of Baptist minist­
ers
who visited Mr.
Nixon, President of tbe
United States. They re­
presented the World Al­
liance Committee. They
were cautioned not to take
more than five minutes
of his time.
When the
spokesman
shook
tbe
President’s band, he said,
"We pray for y&lt;J per­

sonally and publicly, rea­
lising the great burden
you carry." He thanked
them and the door opened.
Tbe signal was given to
them to leave.
The President said,
"Just a minute. I wish
to speak with you." Then
he opened his heart to
them revealing tbe great
concern and burden be
carries.
“On me,” be
said, "rests not only the
destiny of this nation, but
of the people of tbe
world."
The door opened again
and again the signal was
given but again be called
them back.
.
He spoke of his concern
for tbe young people. He
felt they did not under­
stand tbe greatness of
our country, that there
were some things to be
corrected but that there
were many more things
right than wrong.
And again tbe door
opened and again tbe slg-

M1
(or
departure, but be called

tbem back once more.
"One thing more,” be
said. "You said you were
praying for me.
Keep

This country must
have a spiritual awaken­
ing and revival. I, nor
we here on Capital Hill
cannot save this country.
We must get back to tbe
spiritual and moral ideals
on which we wen founded.
We an goingdowntodestruction unless then Is a
spiritual revival.
You

country and tbe people of

your churches an the
ones who must bring this
country back to a spiri­
tual revival.
Pray for
fhlsl Pnach this! This
Is the only hope for our
nation."
This was no written
speech of our President.
He was compelled to
speak from the sincerity
of bls burdened heart
How thankful we should be
for such leadership! We,
as churches, should for­
get our petty diffennees
and unite in heart and
soul and pray that God
will send us that spiri­
tual awakening.
Gb values united ef­
fort In prayer. Tbe Bible
says, "One can chase a
thousand (opponents) but
two can put ten thousand
to fUgtd. (That beats tie
new math.) But, united
prayer-in all denomina­
tions - is so great a
force tbat "The gates
(authority) of Hell shall
'not prevail against It”
If we believe It, shall
we not act upon It tbat tbe
forces that be against us
be broken and victory be

A recent survey of 10

The cost of a semi­

Hospital,
including
tbe

a day.
The average of
the other nine hospitals
In the survey is $47.90
a day, for a difference
of $8.90 a day.
The highest seml-prlvate room rate in the sur­
vey was $59.60 a day,
which results in $20,60 a
day higher charge than
Pennock.
The
hospital
closest to Pennock in the
semi-private room charge
was $4L20 a day.
The average Intensive
care charge in the survey
was $128.45 a day.
The
Pennock Hospital charge
for intensive care unit was
$167.30 per day. This is
almost double tbe Pennock

cbarvv tor tbe Intensive
can unit, and tbe other
hospital ano' a&gt;lhmuni&gt;7‘is
ot comparable sire, Fluke

said.
Then an over 100 items
on the survey and Pennock
was lowest In all but nine
of the 100 items. Tbe bask
emergency room fee at
Pennock Hospital Is &gt;7.50.
Then an two hospitals
tbat charge a bosk emer­
gency room fee of 55 and
one that charges a bask
fee of $7. Then an six
hospitals that charge from
$10 to $15 bask emergency
room fee.

Fluke stated that "hos­
pital fees are of public

�Farm Labor ‘Gaps’
TIPS FOR EMPLOYMENT PACTS
The farm labor problem boils down to an age gap.
wage gap and communication gap. And "put It In writ­
ing'’ can bridge the gaps, Michigan State University
specialists feel.
First, the age gap. Michigan Stats research shows
younger dairymen (under 45 years of age) hire workers
with more education, pay them higher wages and are
better satisfied with their employees than are dairymen
over 45.
Then, the wage °ap. MSU studies also show that the
farm worker — even with fringe benefits—earns only
about half as much per hour as the manufacturing
worker.
But meat laborers could take a difference In wages
if they didn’t have to put up with farm working con­
ditions. That’s where the “communications gap" comes in.
MSU research shows farm operators and their em­
ployees get along better when they understand each
other. And to make sure that happens, more “employ­
ment agreements” are being written.
Leonard Kyle. MSU agricultural economist, lists
these pluses for employment agreements:
1. Help the farmer think through a sound labormanagpnent program.
2. Stimulate discussion between farmer and worker
at the time, of hiring rather than at the time of disa­
greement.
.
3. Communicate and settle critical Issues between the
parties.
4. Assure representation of both parties.
5. Provide a record of the agreement if problems
occur.
6. Provide benchmarks when discussing changes or
modifications for future agreements.

Saturday, our son,

Bernard graduated from

The note read, "Dear Dad, this is a token gift
to express my deep affection and appreciation for your
having carried me through the last 22 difficult years.”

Card of Thanks
I wish to thank my re­

Spend Your Vacation

It is a kind of sentimental and affectionate feeling
which deeply moved me.
In this turbulent world of
restlessness, it nice to learn that we still have certain
old traditions and sentimental attachments between
father and son.
While my wife and I sat In thd* Centra], Michigan
" University Stadium and watched tbe 1,400 graduates

we noticed bow tbe parents and grandparents, the
wives and husbands, the girlfriends and boyfriends
all stood i?) with a sense of pride and satisfaction.
It is a good feeling to live in a free country where
the younger generation is able to choose their own
professions, to excel in whatever they choose and
most of all, we all have a hope for a better wnrM
live in,a hope In seeing a bond between children and par­
ents and a hope that the opportunity of an Individual will

enable them to preserve tbeir rights to express their
love and affection without fear of a “secret police.”
I’m grateful to have tbe opportunity in rilsing our
children in this free land and I appreciate having a
good wife who mothered our children and I’m most
grateful In having good children who do recognize
that some way, some bow we did our best to carry
them through tbeir difficult years to reach maturity.

You made our day one we
will
always remember.

Drug Problem Moves
Into Hastings

hundreds of teenagers and adults obtained free informa­

Eastman and Mrs. Robert Sherwood, and receiving infor­
mation are Mrs. Albert Sutfin and Mrs. Robert DeCamp,

Boy Killed When Guns Discharges
Edward Ellis Smith Jr., 8year-old son of Mr. and Mrs.
"Edward E. Smith of Carlton
Center, R1 Freeport, was killed
about 9:40 a.m. Friday, July
23, when a .22 pistol discharged
in the kitchen of this home
located in the former school
building there, according to Sgt.
David Wood of the Barry County
sheriff’s department.
The boy was pronounced dead
at Pennock Hospital at 10:10 a.m.
The bullet slammed into the

right temple of the little fellow.
The first report said that
the hand gun fell out of the
holster hanging on the gun rack
when it was brushed by an
elbow of * Ed’s twin brother,
Joseph The accident was still
under investigation.
Sgt
Wood said the boys’
mother, who works the U p.m
to 7 a m ' shift at the Barry
County Medical Facility, was
sleeping when the incident oc­

curred.
In addition to his parents
and brother, he is survived
by a sister, Poppy, 4.
Services were held at 1 p.m.
Monday, July 26, at the Glrrbach Funeral Home, with burial
in the Striker Cemetery.
The lad was born in Ft.
Pierce, Fla. on Nov. 21, 1962.
The family moved here in April
of 1968, and he was a third
grader at Woodland.

*

There may not be many re­
ports on the police or sheriff's
blotters, but the Barry County
area docs have a drugproblem.
And a serious one.
Two
weekends ago, there
were ’hree seriously 11! teen­
agers iaken to Pennock Hospi­
tal, all high on drugs from
three different places.
Frugs caused the recent
death of a Barry County girl'
who was found in her Ann Ar­
bor apartment.
There have
been other incidents.
An 8th grader was said to
have been brought back from
the brink of death not too long
ago, allegedly having taken
drugs on a school bus.
A group of concerned peo­
ple, mostly parents, got to­
gether and operated a Drug
Information Booth during the
Barry
County
Fair.
Hun­
dreds of kids andadults stopped
at the booth to obtain free
information. Some had serious
problems. Four addicts from
Project Rehab in Grand Rap­
ids were in attendance two even­
ings to answer nuestions and
for discussion.
Sponsors of the Drug Infor­
mation Booth hope that this
one program will lead to the
continuing education of the total
community The leaders, Mrs.
Robert Sherwood, Mrs. Burnell
Larke and Mrs. William East­
man appreciate t the help they
received from many people.
Barry County Undersheriff
Gordon Trick said an investi-

ga’ion is being conducted on the
purchasing of eight mescaline
pills by an 18 year old boy.
A Grand Rapids girl who had
been involved in an automobile
accident
suffered cuts and
bruises, but her real tough
physical condition was the re­
sult of drugs.
Undersheriff Trick said it is
hard to dig out drug offenses.
Parents hate to admit their child­
ren could be Invo’ved, and even
when they know it they hate to
blow the whistle on their own
flesh and blood.
A mother
wiU say “I can’t search my
daughter's room.
When it’s
your own kids involved, the
master takes on a different
character, Trifik said.

Undersheriff Trick said marijuana was perhaps the most
popular drug in use in this
area, but kids are taking a
lot of pep pills.
There is
LSr around, but much of it
is “garbage '*
The pushers
doctor the drugs so much it
is hard to be sure what the
kids are getting
The drug problem is pro­
bably more rampant among kids

from the better homes than
from among the poor, because
of the cost, Trick added. “You
must have the cash to buy the
stuff”
“We have Ideas of spme of
the people who are doing the
pushing, but it is hard for wellknown local officers to catch
them

Actually, almost any family c*n
reduce its telephone bill... by
first understanding that in­

increased telephone usage (not
increased rates). Your present .
telephone rate structure is based
on the idea that you pay for
what you use. We think that’s
only fair. Now, if your family
doesn't need to use your tele­
phone too frequently, there is a

�Editorial
Rights for
the Aged

/

Senator Robert P. Griffin recently asked a ques­
tion--not one involving matters of state—that merits
the attention and in our opinion should receive favor­

able and positive action.
‘•If the commercial airlines can
hires to young people, age twelve
(and I’m glad they do)," he stated,
a reduced fare program for those

Voice of the People

R.M.C.

offer reduced
to twenty-one
"then why not
age slxfy-five

and over who are willing to travel on a spaceavailable basis?”
In line with the above, he introduced Senate
Bill 2055 that would authorize and encourage such
a program for senior citizens on the railroads
and buses as well as ths airlines.
If enacted,
the Senator believes that fare reductions up to
fifty per cent could be expected.
The above was brought about, Senator Griffin ex­
plained, because he does a lot of traveling and
has noted a lot of empty seats, especially on the
airliners.
He believes that many senior citizens
have both the time and desire to travel but are too
often not in the position to pay full fere. Reduced
rates on a stand by or space available basis, would
bring travel costs within their means and would
provide additional revenue for the carriers by fill­
ing space that would otherwise be vacant and un­
used
This bill, we believe, should be passed with a min­
imum of delay. It will open up travel opportunities

for many senior citizens and should constitute a
wry fevorable public relations deal for the air­
tines and other carriers.
It must be made plain, however, what "spaceavailable basis” really means. For example, tra­
wl at this reduced fare can mean a delay, pos­
sibly of some duration, for the passenger involved.
Advance reservations will not be possible. Those
taking advantage of these special rates must be
prepared accordingly.
There is no doubt that these lower rates, despite
inconveniences and uncertainties involved, will offer
new opportunities and enjoyments for senior citi­
zens. ,

Pandora’s Box to Open
We wonder—If any of theSe fruth in advertising

cases now being prosecuted by the federal govern­
ment were to be contested, would they be able to
stand up against the First Amendment which was
adopted to protect our right to free speech and,
under increasingly liberal interpretations by the
Supreme Court, has come to mean the right to
utter almost anything that comes to mind without
fear of reprisal or legal action by the offended party?
So, if under the law as it now stands, an adver­
tiser wants to "guild the lily" a bit, so to speak,
isn't that his right of free expression and must
what be says be governed and censored by a federal
agency?
This "truth in advertising” deal, once
It gets into the hands of a Washington bureaucracy,
may turn out to be a bigger and costlier headache
for all concerned than the frequently inane slogans,
claims, singing commercials, etc., concocted by the
bright boys of the advertising agencies—material
that is frequently more amusing than credible.

“The Average Shopper ha*
considerably more common
sense... than many of the
Congressional bleeding hearts.'*
In our opinion, the evenge shopper has consi­
derably more common sense and Is leas Influ­
enced by obviously exaggerated advertising claims
than many of the Congressional "bleeding hearts"
realize.
Would tha’ senators and representatives,
themselves, were as much aware of sound values
and actors that contribute to the cost of living
as the average shopper stocking up on a week's
siggily of groceries, or shoes, clothes and other
supplies for the amity.
In act, almost anything Is to be preferrad to that
of Increasing the army o! federal tareaucrats, in­
spectors, eta., who tael It is their right and duty

to pry Into your afairs
After all. If one suffers damage or harm from a
purchase, there are plenty of legal means available
wittout spending many millions more on the creation
of a new bureaucracy.
Also, such a move la not
In line with defusing federal power and authority

over the detailed management of our lives.
The mere creation of a new agency with a new
purpose doesn’t guarantee efficiency, freedom from
outside influence or purity of operation." All it
does mean, for sure, is a further extension of the
already over-extended federal apparatus.
There
will be new offices built and furnished, even though
nothing else Is accomplished.,

Road to Peking
The news of Henry Kissinger's visit to Peking
as a personal envoy of President Nixon was hailed
as a possible breakthrough with China which can
lead to considerable progress along the road to

world peace and stability.
The announcement also- points to the need and
value, under proper and justifiable circumstances
of top administrative leaders to proceed free from
the constant glare of media publicity. Would tlie

responsible leaders of the United States and China,
for example, have been able to carry out the deli­
cate and complex negotiations preliminary to such
a meeting without such protection?
We doubt IL
If the news had been discovered and broadcast
In advance, would Mr. Kissinger have received the
apparently open and friendly reception in Peking
actually accorded him? We doubt It, for the simple
reason that It would have been Impossible to con­
vince Chou En-lai that the news was not leaked
in advance to put China on the spot—or that the
United States could be trusted with confidential
information
We readily admit that our federal government has
used the "top secret' stamp with too free and
heavy a hand. This merely proves, in our opinion,
that there' needs to ba a more precise set of rules

established by Congress and the Administrative
branches of our nation governing the right to pro­
tect information with the "top secret” classifica­
tion. This authority is, at present, too widely spread
and some of the material still being protected makes
the "top secret” label something of a joke. Why,
for example, should twenty-year-old newspaper clip­
pings be protected as "top secret" when the same
information has been available all along In news­
paper files not subject to federal restrictions?
Yet, there are sound reasons why a federal ad­
ministration should have the right to "top secret”
protection of correspondence and documents, es­
pecially in diplomatic dealings with foreign nations
such as the preliminary correspondence with China
that led up to the meeting of Kissinger with Chou
En-lai.
It Is dangerous oversimplification to say that,
since we are a free people and the government is
our government, all the government files should
be made available at all times to any person who
wishes to peruse them.
President Nixon was correct, we believe, in cau­
tioning Washington pundits and other journalists to
keep from overspeculation and exaggerated comment
in regard to the forthcoming top level meeting be­
tween the United States and China.
The only thing "for sure" seems to be that ice
has been broken and the way opan for negotiations
during the months ahead.
The People's Republic
of China has not suddenly become our friend Dor
we theirs. We do, however, appear to be maneuver­
ing Into a situation where direct contacts and con­
versations will be possible.
That there are difficulties galore is rather evi­
dent.
President Nixon made it clear in his talk
to the Nation that:
"Our action in seeking a new
relationship with the People’s Republic of China
will not be at the expense of our old friends. It

is not directed against any other nation.
friendly relations with all nations."

We seek

Taiwan must certainly be classed as one of "our
old friends."
China, however, has been adamant
In seeking a return of this little Island Republic to
control of the mainland government.
Taiwan, in
turn, has been adamant against the "two Chinas'*
concept and so is both suspicious and unhappy
with any sign of rapprochement between the United
States and the People's Republic.
So, right at the start there is a "diplomatic tri­
angle" that will take serious purpose and a rare
degree of understanding on the part of all concerned
to reach satisfactory agreement.
However, contacts with Mainland China have been
established and the way is open for talks and nego­
tiations.
That is a positive factor of utmost Im­
portance and President Nixon has served the Nation
well In bringing It about.

65 and Over Should Fly
At Reduced Rates
To the Edlton
As your U.&amp; Senator In
Washington, I do a lot of
traveling — and I see a
lot of empty seats on the
airliners.
At the same
time, I’m very conscious
of the feet that many senior
citizens have the time, as
welt as the desire, to tra­
vel — but they can’t af­
ford it.
If the commercial air­
lines can offer reduced
feres to young people, age
12 to 21 (and I'm glad they
do), then why not a reduced
fere program for those age
65 and over who are will­
ing to travel on a spaceavailable basis?
My bill would authorize
and encourage such a pro­
gram for senior citizens
on the railroads and buses
as well as the* airlines.

If enacted, I believe fere
reductions up to 50 pej: ; „
cent could be expected.
If you believe this leg­
islation makes sense—for
the commercial transpor­
tation system as well as
for senior citizens—then
I hope you wilt pitch in
and help me get it passed.
I’d like to suggest that you
write to your own U.&amp;
Representative
in Con­
gress and to the Honorable
Warren Magnuson, Chair­
man of the Commerce
Committee,

U.S.

Senate,

Washington, DC. 20510.
With warm best wishes,

Concurs With Supreme
Court Pentagon Decision
To the Editor
Just read vour editorial in your paper of this
date in which you state "In your opinion" the U.S.
Supreme Court is in error in allowing the New York
Times to print the information tn the Pentagon Pa­

pers.
Please ask yourself these questions:
1. Knowing the type of people responsible for the
Times—wouldn’t they have given this the greatest
amount of thought before publishing such informa­
tion?
Knowing the government, they knew there
was no other way.
2. Read the’ June 28 and July 5 issues of TIME.
Wouldn't Mr. Ellsberg know the tremendous chance
he is taking in revealing this information? He knew
there was no other way.
3. Ask yourself—truly—what prompted these res­
ponsible people to make what you deem to be such a
drastic decision—money? I don't think so.
4. Is it possible they put the good of the country
ahead of their personal gain?
Can you understand
this?
Can you understand people who are neither
Republicans or Democrats, but just plain good citi­
zens—who wan’ to de what is right regardless of
where the chips fell? The freedom of the press was
their only way to go.
They should be.applauded,
not criticized.
5. What do you think the current revolution in
this country is all about? What we have been doing
is not right—God knows this and so do these young
people--but the Old Guard sajj£ "Don’t rock the
boat”—we've done it this way for years, it must
be right.
Every President from the General on down has
been keeping the facts from the American public.
This is the only reason Hitler was successful because
the majority of the German people thought the govern­
ment was honest and responsible, and the ones that
knew the difference were either afraid or else too
endowed with party loyalty to dare to bring out the
truth.
As a result six million—six million—Jews
died.
Just sit down and vision six million Jews
dying because you were afraid to speak out. It takes
guts to speak out for what is right The German
people wish they had done it. YOU HAVE THE MEANS
TO CO IT.
We should never have been in Viet Nam—no more
than the French or British should have been in our
Civil War.
We should get out.
Any survey shows
73% of the American people agree, yet the politicians

keep us In—and the misinformed publications keep
us in. Help us admit we made a mistake—don’t keep
making the decision tougher.
Let’s don't keep pushing for the status quo—the
government is right and anyone who defies it is
wrong
Let's allow an Open Door for the young
people to exist; tot’s give it any favorable publicity
we can- let us not put through a law that says not
more than two people can gather on the streetaimed a» strictly the young.
This, of course, is
illegal.
Don’t just let us put our beads in the sand
and think maybe it will go away—IT WON’T. Let
us do what we and God knows is right.
The Hastings Banner can help—it can be a GREAT
ptper.

“Let’s stay involved,” be concluded.
Ritchie, who previously received the Rotary Red
Rose Citation for his many civic achievements,
saluted everyone who had any part in making the

Ritchie also made two recommendations for the
community.
The first was to hold an annual Cen­
tennial Bali, and the second an annua! community
picnic.

Both could have the effect of getting residents of

the community together.
Ritchie also explained that the Centennial Cor­
poration expected to have a few thousand dollars
available for use on a civic project.
He asked
that individuals, with suggestions as to how this
money could be most wisely used let him or others
on the Centennial board know.
Mrs. Cook, vice president of the Centennial, talked
about the women's activities during the celebration,
tel'lng of Osgood's lovely luncheon, the Centennial
ball, style show, queen’s contest and other events.

I would like to take this opportunity to pledge myself

Obviously, we're doing something better.

Who Have Thankful Hearts
Chuck utaUukcd 115Q
The initial work toward establishing a Church of
God congregation in Hastings began in 1950 when
a few families began holding services in their homes.
Some of those taking the Initiative for Sunday
School and worship services were: Rev. and Mrs.
Leo Reading, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Shoebridge,
Mr. and Mrs. Dan Howell, Mr. and Mrs. Roy Palmer,
Mr. and Mrs. Emmett Gast, Mr. and Mrs. Donald
MacKenzie Sr. who were soon joined by other be­
lievers.
After a few weeks arrangements were made to
hold meetings in the basement of Miller's Ice Cream
Store, located on the corner of Jefferson and State
streets.
Rev. Reading served the pastoral leadership of
the congregation until 1954, at this time Rev. and
Mrs. Roy Palmer with their son Phillip and daugh­
ter Marcella assumed pastoral duties.
In 1954 the congregation purchased the Annabell
Funeral Holne at 428 S. Jefferson St, to better

serve their needs.
The pastor and his family
lived on the second floor and the main floor was
used for worship and Sunday School classes. After
about four years there was another pastoral change.
Rev. Clarence Hause, his wife Alice, and their
two daughters, Carolyn and Bonnie, took pastoral
(kities in August 1958 and served until about 1962.
During his mlnistery the congregation began to
take a forward look and take action to meet their
growing needs.
In March 1959 slightly more than six acres of
’and was purchased on North Broadway, where the
present building now stands at 1330 N. Broadway.
Following Rev. Hause, Rev. and Mrs. George Huber
accepted the pastoral duties and served until 1965.
The present building was constructed under his
leadership.
Digging for the present building began
in 1963, The church became incorporated in August,
1964 under the laws of the state of Michigan. At
this time the church secured a $20,000 loan for
building purposes.
Construction of the building
was almost entirely by donated labor from the
community and the congregation, also some labor
and material was furnished by the Mt. Haley Church
of God, which was greatly appreciated by the congre­
gation.
The present pastor Rev. Burnley Spencer, with
his wife Evelyn, three daughters Rebecca, Valeta,
Jyll and two sons Clifford and Michael assumed
pastoral duties Labor Dgy weekend September, 1966,

Ecology Is a word that has become familiar to
the elementary pupil and the general public. Surely
we all ought to be keenly aware of the air and water
pollution problem which is dirtying the face of "Amer­
ica the Beautiful.”
The rivers, lakes, and even
mountain streams ate becoming more polluted. We
hear that life has practically disappeared from one
of the Great Lakes due to contamination; also that
the ocean is becoming so poisoned as to affect
the giving off of life-preserving oxygen.
Pollution always comes physically, mentally, and
morally when people, in their greed of getting,

neglect to put back into or give something worth­
while in return, and when we fail to clean up the
mess we make In getting.
There is a tragic lack of reverence and respect
for our God-given resources and the means by
which we receive. When we forget the Creator and
foil to be thankful to him from whom all good and
perfect gifts come, what can wo expect but a messedup life, unhappy homes, and a sick society seeking
satisfaction through drugs, liquor, and immorality?
We are in a hurry to get, we don't have time to
stop and say, "Bless the Lord, 0 my soul and all
that Is within me, bless his holy name...and forget
not all his benefits" (Ps. 103:1-2).
In Genesis 26:1-18, we are told of another pol­
lution problem.
In Abraham's time there wai a
famine, but he did something about It
He dug
wells, tapping the supply of pure water. He cre­
ated a means for receiving the water. Therefore,
he had enough water for his family-and servants,
his sheep and camels, even for irrigation.
In Isaac's time there was also a famine, but
this time it was due to neglect.
The resources
were still there as they were for his father, Abra­
ham, but by neglect and carelessness the wells
were left unguarded.
So their enemies, the Phi­
listines, were allowed to pollute and clog the wells.
There was a fomine, not for lack of resources,
but because the channels for receiving were stopped
up.

sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins,
and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” “If
any is in Christ, he is a new creation.” "And the
witness is this, that God has given us eternal
life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son
has the life, he who does not have the Son of God
does not have life.
These things I have written
to you who believe in the name of the Son of God,
in order that you may know that you have etenal
life..." (Isa. 55:7; IJn. 1:9; 2Cor. 5:17; Un.5:ll-13).

Isaac was going-to run from his sorry situation,
so God told him not to go to Egypt but to stay and
clean out the clogged, polluted wells. Isaac obeyed
^,and soon pure water flowed in abundance.
The
famine was over. There was plenty for his family,*
his sheep and cattle, camels, his neighbors, and
for irrigation.
Now we are in the midst of a more serious
famine due to a worse pollution. There is a moral
and spiritual famine for the Water of Life. People
movements, and nations rise or fall as they exalt
God of fail to do so.
When God and divine truth
are not honored and obeyed, people sink very low
morally, as did Sodom.
But when they respect,
reverence, repent, and obey divine truth they rise
to spiritual heights.
There are wells of divine truth reaching down
deep Into the grace of God from whence comes
the Water of Life. If, for any reason they are ne­
glected, man falls into moral and spiritual pol­
lution and rot. Some of these wells are: the sov­
ereignty of God; Jesus Chrlst-the Divine Son of
- God; love; justice; the new birth; the convicting,
and the Holy Spirit; the eternal destiny of man;
heaven and hell; man's responsibility for his acts;
the truth of what the New Testament church is.
There is a word of sure hope for anyone, young
and old, who wants to keep his life pure. "Let
the wicked forsake his way,...let him return unto
the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him;...for
he will abundantly pardon.”
"If we confess our

MOOSE ARE REMODELING—The Hastings Moose Lodge
has launched a project to remodel its building on N.
Michigan, and Lester Monica(right), Al Dunn and Les’
grandson, Brad Monica, last week were erecting a new
brick wail on the north. “Chicago” bricks will be laid
for a new front wall, matching the previously remodeled
portion on the south end of the building. Eventually
the Moose ballroom will be moved down to the ground
floor. There will be a new kitchen and acidity on the
west side. The project is expected to cost about $20,000.
The building itself has long been paid for.—Banner photo.

He married Agnes Cole
on Aug. 12, 1952, in Indi­
ana.
In addition to his wife,
he is survived by a daught­
er, Mrs. Laurence (Violet)

�Exploring
the County
If I were to pick the
one most exciting natural
feature in our county I
think it would be the big
kettle hole north of Gun
Lake known as the Devil's
Soup Bowl.
In Wisconsin the govern­
ment has created a National
Monument about their out­
standing Kettle Moraine yet
according to former State
Geologist Helen Martin our
Yankee Springs Kettles are
even more spectacular.
Our big kettle is really
part of a complex of ket­
tles in a moraine known
as Hubbard. Hills.
Huge
blocks of glacial Ice were
buried in the moraine build
up and when they melted
they left the deep depres­
sions. I suspect this one
was built by the Saginaw
Lobe glacier while the Ice
was standing on the fairly
level prairie country gen­
erally called Bulls Prairie.
This Is an area affected by
two great Ice masses but

mer and winter color slides
but It Is something you
just have to visit to ap­
preciate.
It must have taken many
years for the buried ice
block to melt. It was high
enough in the hill so it
left a dry bole. Another
big kettle just east of it
contains a small lake known
as Lost Lake In its depths.
wh»n visiting the Kettle
you should not fall to look
at some of the magnificent
tall trees growing in Its
depths. In the spring there
are lovely flowers and oc­
casionally
a
tempting
mushroom.
It is easy to find since
the Yankee Springs Park
has a marked trail leading
to it from Gun Lake just
east of Long Lake.

Legalization Is No Solution to Drug Problem.
Som/'en-inty residents may hare been surprised to
learn that our “wen-ordered” rural community has
a drug problem—not just milder forms like marijuana—
but hard stuff such as heroin and LSD—and mostly among
teen-agers—and mostly from the “better homes.” While

accurate statistics are lacking, it is reasonable to hazard

a guess that on a percentage of population basis, Barry

County would rate no better than average—possibly a bit
worse.
■
Although the problem is known to many people here, the
effective answer is illusive. Under present State and Su­

preme Court interpretations of existing law, it is next to
impossible to apprehend the “pushers” eventhoughpolice

officers have a good idea who they are. Parents of addicts
known to the police are hesitant to give co-operation. Also,
many parents who know or suspect that their children are
drug users, are reluctant to seekprofessional help or balp
from the police.

At present the law, through legal loopholes, permits the

It is probably unfair to criticize a proposal without hav­

ing something positive to offer as a substitute.
Unfortunately there is no easy answer to the drug pro­
blem in the United States; no cure-all that will bring about
a sudden reversal.
The truth about hard drugs and their devastating effects
on the physical and mental being is well known; informa­

tion has been spread via educational programs in the

might be possible to formulate an effective answer to
the drug problem.
The theory that poverty is a factor in the spread of

the'drug habit has been rather well discounted since,

if we may believe the statistics, it is among young people

from families well above poverty levels where the use
of drugs appears to be increasing most rapidly.

What can be done that isn’t now being done to persuade

pushers and their customers to operate under a rather
with public apathy to properly face up to the problem

potential users—especially in the teen-age and young x
adult categories—not to take the first fatal step? That is

helps to explain the growth of drug problems even in largely

a key question for whicl^ unfortunately, there is, as yet

rural communities such as ours.
In view of the above. It is something far short of hearten­

Don't expect the new proposed

won't. The new rates would apply
mainly to your basic rate and
would not in any way affect the
charges for long distance calls
within Michigan. For example,
you can make a one-minute call
from FlinttoTraverseCityfor30&lt;
or less (depending on whether
you dial direct). The same call
would cost exactly the same

But, as always, the more toll

Though the new rate proposal

rates, your bill will still go up or
down in direct-proportion to the

your bill is up to you. You can
lower it by making fewer and
briefer long distance calls,
if you choose.

You have struck it rictwrlgtit in your own kiteben!
That box or Jar on tbe
shell labeled “nonfat dry
milk" contains a goldmine
of taste and nutrition that
is mighty low in calories.
So stake your claim now
to scrumptious mealtime
tkre featuring nonfat dry
milk.
The U.S, Department of
Agriculture says that non­
fat dry milk, the powdered
form of skim milk, is con­
venient to store on the
pantry shelf, safe to carry
on warm-weather outings,
easy to use at a moment's
notice end usually econo­
mically priced.
When reconstituted with
water, it can be used in
place of whole milk. Or
the powder may be added
to a recipe along with the
other
dry
ingredients,
while the water is added
with ths other liquid in­
gredients.

Fresh cherries are very
perishable and should be
refrigerated as soon as
possible. Do not wash be­
fore refrigerating. Leave
stems oo cherries. Sort
carefully and place loosely
In shallow containers so
air can circulate and tbe
weight of cherries on lop
does not crush those on the
bottom
Use within two
days for the best eating
ouallty.

There Is a difference
betwen "Chicken Souplnd
“Chicken Flavored Soup.“
The first must contain at
least two per cent cooked,
deboned chicken meat, und­
er U.S ^Department of
Agriculture poultry stand­
ards
But there Is
minimum requirement for "
chicken content In chicken
flavored soup.

Brown Bound Over For Trial
After hearing testimony that
fingerprints
of
Robert w Jay
Brown, 31, 227 S. Hanover, Has­
tings, were on chips from a
broken ceramic ashtray found
near the body, District Judge
Kenneth Hansen bound the sus­
pect over the Circuit Court for
trial.
Brown is charged with the
Nov. 25,' 1970 murder of Mrs.
Shirley (Kathleen) Woods, 22,

who was killed by three shots
in the head at her Wall Lake
home as she prepared to go to
work about 7:30 a_m,
Juf’ge Hansen, after Prose­
cutor I avid Timmers rested the
People's case about 3:15 p.m.
Thursday, Aug. 5, said that it
had been proven that a crime
had been committed, and that
the testimony of the fingerprint
expert satisfied him that author­
ities had reason to hold Brown
and that he was binding him
over for trial.

from a Hastings hardware store,
to be checked by Detective Golm.
Golm said Brown denied ever
having been in the Woods’ home.
He said that Brown had told him
he had purchased the .22 am­
munition for target practicing
with a brother-in-law’s pistoL
Brown had been employed by
the Middleville Gulf Gas Sta­
tion when he was arrested.
Detective Go&gt;m said he took
a second set of fingerprints from
Brown on July 13 at the Eaton
County Jail at Charlotte, because
the first prints taken in Hastings
were unclassifiable. Atty. Hoff­
man questioned the right to take
the second set of prints, after
officers had been told that Brown
was not to make any statement
except in his (Hoffman’s) pre­
sence Atty. Hoffman said taking
the prints could be a violation
of his client's civil rights.
The objection to admitting the
prints was denied.

A motion by Atty. John Hoff- .
man of Allegan,
representing
Brown, to nuash the warrant
and to dismiss the charge be­
cause there had been no show­
ing that Brown had been con­
nected with the crime was de­

nied.
Testifying at the preliminary
examination held at the Hastings
City Hall were Mrs. Woods’ hus­
band, Sgt. Kenneth Granata of
the Barry County Sheriffs De­
partment, State Police Detective
Robert E. Golm of the Wayland
Post, State Police fingerprint
specialist Wayne Clinton, and
Dr. Malcolm Young, pathologist.
T r. Young said any one of the
three bullet wounds could have
killed Kathy.
Detective Golm said he had
placed Brown under arrest for
Mrs Woods’ murder about 8:30
p.m on June 18.
Brown was
the last of 35 or 40 persons who
had purchased .22 ammunition

Baffle of Sunrise Shores Continues
The seven-year legal battle to
halt the Sunrise Shores develop­
ment at Gun Lake isn't over
yet, despite the Supreme Court
ruling that the project can con­

tinue.
Louis Thompson and other Gun
Lake property owners, through
the law flrm of Im, Buchen,
Weathers, Richardson and Dutch­
ers of Grand Rapids, have filed
a claim for a rehearing with the
state's highest court, and also
a motion for discovery.
If we don't obtain a rehear­
ing, we can carry the case to
the U.S. Supreme Court, Thomp­
son said. Thompson estimated

that property owners already
have Invested $6,000 to $7,000
In attempting to halt the develop­
ment of the 140 lots.
The Supreme Court, In a 5-2
decision, reversed an opinion
by Barry County Circuit Judge
Richard Robinson handed down
on July 7, 1969. Judge Robin­
son had ruled that the Sunrise
Shores development was "un­
reasonable use" for the prop­
erty.
The high court's majority oplnlon pointed out that the trial
Judge had said "In any event,
nothing can be done to stop
this (more development) if done

in single tier construction."
The Supreme Court opinion
said "We cannot but ponder why
the circuit Judge arrived at this
conclusion.
Was the circuit
Judge recognising a Fourteenth
Amendment protected property
right to build cottages in a sin­
gle tier along the undeveloped
shoreline?
In this conclusion,
we would certainly concur. But
If the defendants' right to use
their property in anylawfulmanner and to exercise their ri­
parian rights In the same fash­
ion as the riparian owners is a
right of property protectedby the
Fourteenth Amendment to the
Federal Constitution, we fall to
see why It would be arbitrarily
limited to a single tier develop­
ment of lake front cottages."
The trial court found that ex­
isting canal developments rep­
resent 6.4 miles of canal front­
age, and that
Sunrise Shores
would add 2.3 miles of canal
frontage to the lake. The high
Court notyd that the defendants'
development Is about the same as
the ratio of all previous canal
developments.

To Count Barry Horses
This Wednesday and Thursday,
Aug. 11-12, Barry County 4H’ers
are to make a bouse to house
census In all 16 Barry townships
to enumerate all the horses,
mules, donkeys and ponies.
The census Is part of Michi­
gan’s goal to account for all
horses In the State to minimize
the threat of Venezuelan Equine
Encephalomylltls (VEE).
Four-H Club Agent BUI Kirk­
patrick Invited 4H leaders to an
organization meeting at his of­
fice Friday, Aug. 6, to make
plans for the Barry campaign.
Kirkpatrick hoped to have at
least 300 boys and girls and 50
adults cooperating In the census.
When the enumerator arrives at
a house, he will have an Infor­
mation sheet' to till out, noting

how many horses, mules, don­
keys or ponies are there. They
will also note if the owner has
any equine that are located out­
side of Michigan.

VEE Is the highly Infectious
disease primarily affecting hor­
ses In Texas and surrounding

states.
"Vaccine must be prepared
In case of a VEE outbreak In
Michigan," according to' a recent
report by Dr. Oscar Swanstrom,
eoulne specialist
at Michigan
State University.
"We need to know bow many
horses are In Michigan so we
could get enough vaccine If an
outbreak threatened,
and we
need to know where every horse
Is located so that mass vac­
cinations could be done rapidly,”
Swanstrom said.
A censusofallequlnes(horses,
mules, donkeys and ponies)

be taken by the MSU Cooperative
Extension Service on Aug 11-12.
Cooperative Extension Service
officials plan to mobilize more
than 11,000 4-H members and
leaders for a "bern-to-barn”
survey In every Michigan county.
"Little can be done to treat
horses Infected with VEE,” no­
ted Dr Swanstrom. "About 85
percent of an horses Infected
die within six to seven days af­
ter disease symptoms appear."
The U.S. Secretary of Agri­
culture has declared a state of
emergency and federal veteri­
narians are
vaccinating
an
healthy horses In the southwest­
ern states.
No VEE has been
reported In Michigan yet, but a
mass horse vaccination program,
based on the equine census data,
would probably be started If a
VEE outbreak occurred, accord­

ing to Swanstrom.
VEE can infect humans but is
generally not fatal. Many ani­
mals can carry the VEE virus
In their bloodstreams.
These
Include horses, rata, mice, rab­
bits, dogs, cats, sheep, humans
and maybe others.
Biting Insects such as mos­
quitoes and biting flies spread
VEE from the carrier animal
to horses and humans. It can
also be spread between horses
by direct contact, through mouth,
nasal and eye secretions and
by milk and urine.
The present quarantines and
vaccination
programs should
control the VEE outbreak In the
U.SL, predicts Swanstrom. But

If an outbreak occurs, the equine
census data should help provide
prompt control, be said.

Right To Criticize Media

17387194

The double standard that exists regarding criticism of and by the
media was Illustrated when George Jessel was cut short by Edwin
Newman during a TV interview because of critical inferences made
about the New York Times and the Washingtorf Post.f

We hold no brief for Jessel. His remarks, intended to be humor­
ous. were more inane than funny. However, many times before, TV
has tolerated inane humor directed against individuals--especially
If they happened to be public officials, big business executives, or con­
servatives such as Barry Goldwater, etc.
One can't help but wonder—Would Mr. Newman have taken offense
if Jessel had directed critical remarks or Inferences at a conserva­
tive publication such as The Chicago Tribune?
We doubt it. In
fact, barbs along this line might even have appealed to Newman's
sense of humor, if indeed, he has any.
The media is jealous of Its right of free expression--and rightly
so
However, this Constitutional right is a two-way street. If the
me- la has the right to criticize individuals, these same individuals
certainly have the right to answer back, to criticize the media or to
e press personal opinions of same.
Yet, when subjected to criticism, especially by an individual of
any prominence, the media more often than not reacts*like a “cry
baby" and howls about an attempt to curb the right of free expression

Those of us who saw the Falcon blast off from the moon were
probably unprepared for the rapid acceleration as it quickly pulled
clear from the field of view of the TV camera stationed on the Lunar
Rover.
Accustomed as we are to the slow, languflrtak*e-off of the
big rockets here on earth, the little Falcon seemed to be propelled by

a powerful slingshot One forgets the much more rapid acceleration
possible in the low gravity and vacuum atmosphere that prevails
on the moon.
Theoretical science aside, for the moment, the flight of Apollo 15
was outstanding because of the advancements in technology it rep­
resented—technology that is certain to be of practical use on earth.
The nuality of the TV pictures on Apollo 11 and Apollo 15 seem decades

The mer'la Is no“sacred cow’’ and should enjoy no more Immunity
from criticism that is accorded individuals and institutions.
The right to free speech and free expression is a two-way street.
Mr Sinfel should recognize that fact.
“The veriest child now knows that a vote for the President is a
vote for war, for murder, for the impoverishment of our people. . .
Not another life need be wasted in this war; not another dollar of the
people’s money need be spent if this President would but prefer the
salvation of the Union and the restoration of peace to the accomplish­
ment of schemes which he himself solemnly swore two short years
ago, he had neither the right nor the disposition to attempt.”
The above editorial would seem to be a rather typical comment
of the current scene. Actually, however, it first appeared on July 26,
'864, as an editorial in the Springfield (I1L) Register, which strongly
opposed the Civil War and the re-election of Springfield’s most
distinguished citizen--Abraham Lincoln.
In Ju’y of 1864, a war weariness enshrouded the North. There
were war protests, draft protests and riots—one so severe that
it took a regiment of army regulars to quelL The nation seemed
to be failing apart.
There was strong sentiment to end hostilities
at any cost; to pull back and let the South go its way, before the
division among the people of the' North became more acute and

hopeless
That, too, has a somewhat modern ring.
But as our friend, the lite IT. never Bald once remarked in a
talk here:
“History is a harpoon for deflating current crisis.”
It was only two years ago that the first TV pictures ware broad­
cast from’the moon back to us here on earth—and what an incredible
feat it seemed—and was. It mattered not that the pictures in black
and white were somewhat fuzzy and indistinct. One could actually
see the two astronauts climb down from their landing vehicle, cavort
about on the surface and install the American flag and various sci­
entific experiments.

Apollo 15 Features Color TV
A feature of the Apollo 15 flight just completed^ was color tele­
vision which compared favorably in quality with broadcasts made
here on earth.
Both color and resolution were near perfect. One
could even see in detail the herringbone pattern on the bottom of
their white boots.
The sound, too, came through with surprising
clarity--! wish that loud speaker systems on earth could do as well
One could easily follow the conversation and comments of the two
men as they cruised about on their Moon Rover, gathered samples,
described the scenery and worked on scientific experiments—it was

swer" to my letter—the one
nuoting Hitler.
I was using in
that letter a form of writing
known as satire. Satire as used
in my letter is the use or irony,
sarcasm, etc. in exposing and
denouncing the foolish statements
that miny members of our society
have made.
Many people vigorously de­
nounce communism anil student

protests and scream for a stop
of them at any price.
What
these people forget is that any
price could destroy democracy in
our country and replace it with
a mad dictator like Hitler was.
Hitler was one of the strongest
anti-comm».lists the world has
ever seen.
Many people today pride them­
selves on being stronganti-comm-lists. Hitler demanded “law
and order." Today many peo­
ple demand “law and ordey.”
In my letter I tried to point
•out that just because one is
pro “law and order” does not
mean that parson is a good per­
son or the kind of person we
should elect to public office.
Nowhere did I mean to glorify

Hitler.
I, Instead, wanted to show that
nice sounding phrases do not
Tnake a good leader. But, that
is exactly what wa hear a lot
of today from our politicians—
nice sounding words.
I was
trying to tell my fellow citizens
that we must all be careful so
that we never become so caught
up in words that we elect an
Adolf Hitler to office.

Hazards ef Long Hair
Long hair, which once was a
safety problem for only female
employees, is now a hazard for
the man on the job as well, ac­
cording to the Michigan Depart­
ment of Labor.
On jobs around machinery a
tight fitting cap or hat should be
worn to keep long hair from be­
coming entangled in machines
and literally scalping the work­
er, the department says. Long
hair is ■ also a hazard around
open flames unless precautions
are taken to properly cover the
head.
Loose fitting clothing, open
shirts, billowy sleeves and beads
are items which also now en­
danger both men and women who
work around machines.
In addition to dressing safely
for work, the department also
urges the wearlngof safety glass­
es, safety shoes and the other
protective eouipment prescribed
for various jobs.

�Divorce Rate Spiraling
In Barry County
■'I've never known a divorce that was food tor children," Gerald
Mahler, Barry County's friend of the court, told Hastings Rotarians
Monday, Aug. 2, at their regular noon luncheon held at the Hotel
Hastings.
*
Children in families experiencing divorces suffer, Mahler ex­
plained, if not economically and physically, they do emotionally.

Mahler, who has been asso­
ciated with Circuit Court as the
friend of the court since his ap­
pointment as an investigator by
retired Circuit Judge Archie D.
McDonald in 1963, added that,
fortunately, many children from
broken homes grow up to be
fine citizens, despite the system.
Mahler, a former lawenforce­
ment officer, told the RflfcrW
about the functions of his office,
how a total of 1496,000 was col­
lected in 1970 for child support,
with fees totaling $8,300.
So

far this year, collections bad
reached $292,000 and fees $7,800.
The divorce rate in Barry
County has gone up 40 percent
in the past five years. Mahler
estimated that with the new “no
fault” divorce law, the number
of cases might spiral for a cou­
ple of years, and then level off.
There were 143 new cases In
1970 Involving children under 18.
His office bandies 808 divorce
cases with 1,551 kids under 18
involved.
About 30 percent of marriages
in Barry County end up in di­
vorce courts, Mahler estimated.
He said child support payments
may go from his office direct
to many mothers or guardians,
while mothers on ADC have their
child support payments go to the
State.
He said sometimes one

wonders if some mothers ac­
tually want custody of their child­
ren because they want to provide
the best possible
home,
or
whether they want them for “meal
tickets.”
Mahler told the service club
members that his office would
do a much more thorough job
with two more people.
One
could devote full time in making
certain fathers pay their child
support, and the other could make
more thorough and more frequent
investigations of homes where
the children live.
However, we’re on an “aus­
terity” program, he said.
Mahler was introduced by Ma­
yor Franklin C. Beckwith.

A dedication service was held
on May 26, 1956, In what was
known as the Filmore Baptist
Chapel.
In Jhe spring of 1956,
evening services were started,
with a good attendance. On July
14, 1957, a mortgage burning was
held.
Regular
support
was
p'edged to Mr. and Mrs. Geraly
Link, missionaries to Mexico.
There were 15 charter mem­
bers. This group slowly dwin­
dled because of lack of Interest.
Mr. Williams, who was leading
ihe group, became discouraged
and finally closed the doors in
September of I96L The build­
ing was In the name of the
Alaska Baptist Church; they took
action soon afterwards and reouested that the Galilean Baptist
Mission lake charge.
The new work was begun in
February, 1962, with Rev. Larry
Mattis, Mission Representative,
in charge. Interest was stirred
up with new contacts and new
people.
In May, 1962, the' new mis­
sionary family, Rev. and Mrs.
Ralph Vander Werf, came to
pastor the work. Soon the old
school house was too stnall. The
group had the chance to buy the
Freeport high school building
apd three acres of land on the
corner of 108th Street and Hammond Road on the north side of
Freeport.
in the spring of 1963, they
purchased this lot and building.
With much hard work and fix­
ing up, they soon moved into this

Guest Editoral
BY: Pastor Walter Wlnebrenner

'But seek ye first the klngm of God, and his righteousis; and all these things shall
added unto you." Matt 6:33
United Press carried an unoal news Item recently. "A
-year-old man, who looks like
bum and Ilves like one, makes
s 'borne* under a bridge on
inker Hill in downtown Los
tgeles.
But he’s not like an
dinary tramp. He has more
in 320,000 tn a Burnt Hills,
Y. bank and doesn't want it.
ir the second time In three
&lt;rs a lawyer visited him, ofring to give him the money,
dy to have him refuse It *1
m't need IL I’m getting along
st fine,' the man with the curly
&gt;ard told the attorney.”
An article such as this stirs
ir interest
We wonder how
jyone would prefer the life of
tramp, flatly refusing such a
nancial windfall
The man
oesn't want the money. Says
e doesn't need IL
What about our own needs?
.re they as great as we think

them to be? Could it be that
we are
confusing wants with
needs?
I certainly would not
imply that the bridge dweller's
style of lite should be a model
for anyone.
But his existence
does suggest the fact that our
needs are not always as great
as we think they are.
Speaking of needs, let us re­
mind ourselves that It Is writ­
ten In the Bible that "man shall
not live by bread alone, but by
every word that proceeded out
of the mouth of God.” Matt 4:4
Contentment Is not linked with
great wealth but with Godliness.
1 Timothy 6:6 The apostle Paul
declared "I have learned, in
whatever state 1 am, in this to
be content" Phllippians 4:11 The
exhortation In Hebrews 13:5 Is
"... be content with such
things as ye have." If we have
God-honoring objectives, are di­
ligent In fulfilling our respon­
sibilities, and allow the Lord to
determine what our real nec­
essities are, we can know the '
meaning of true peace and contentment.

Pastor’s Son Aids
Excavation of Biblical City
Stun i ahUnra, son of Pastor
and Mrs. Olav Lablanca, R2 Has­
tings, is one of 36 person taking
pert In the second season of archaeologlcal excavations at the
site of the Biblical city of Beak*
bon, Jordan. Heshbon was the
Israelites* first great military
eonouest on their way from Sinai
to the Promised Land.
Lablanca received a B.A. In
behavioral science and religion
this year at Andrews University,
Berrien Springs.
"We*re looking for material
from the late Bronze Age, that
is, from Moses* time, " states
Er. Siegfried Horn, chairman
of the Old Testament department
at the Seventhday Adventist Theo­
logical Seminary at Andrews.
Dr. Horn is director of the ex­
pedition, which began July 5 and
will continue until August 20,
"We are hoping to learn froir
our finds the date of the Exo­
dus," he adds.
This is his fourth attempt tr
excavate at the 50-acre, 2800fbot high limestone mound that
marks the location of Heshbon,
16 miles -south of Jordan’s capi­
tal, Amman. Only the 1966 dig
was successful; both the 1967
and 1970 expeditions were can­
celled due to disorder in the
country.
The expedition Is sponsored
by Andrews University, Calvin
Theological Seminary and the
American Schools of Oriental
Research,
a Massachusetts ­
based organization financed by
private and government funds.
Work at the site of Heshbon
is scheduled for five days a week
during the seven-week expedi­
tion.
Digging starts at 5 a.m.
each day and ends at 1:30 p.m.
"The intense afternoon beat and
wind precludes .our working
then," declares DE Horn.

trigging Is done oy nxno, and
each participant in the expedition
provides his own trowel, meter

tape,
surveyor’s arrows and
other individual equipment. The
American Schools of Oriental Re­
search furnishes picks, hoes,
baskets, ladders, crowbars, and
wheelbarrows. To help with the
digging, approximately 160 Jor­
danians are employed.
Since the Jordanian govern­
ment owns the mound at Hesh­
bon, that country keeps the best
of the artifacts recovered, but
Andrews University
Is guar­
anteed 50 per cent of the ma­
terials: mostly stone, bone and
metal objects.
•
The 1968 excavations went as
far down in the mound as exilic
times—the Middle Iron Age, 600
B.C. Some fragments of pottery
from the late Bronze Age, about
1400 B.C., were also found. By
digging deeper, Dr. Horn hopes
to find material from the time
of Sihon, the king of Heshbon
who, according to Deuteronomy
2:26-34, was defeated by Moses
and the Israelites.
No one knows today what King
Slhon’s ancient town looked like.
Later, It was rebuilt, was part
of King Solomon’s realm, and

finally was the site of a Byzan­
tine church that was destroyed
by the invading armies of Mo­
hammed In the seventh ce.2ury
A.E. European travelers visited
the area during the 1800’s, but
It was abandoned at that time.
A few score Bedouins, have set­
tled there recently.

Round Barns A Rarity
Walter Wallace
Recalls Construction
Round tarns are still a rarity, but this area can boast of bavin,
one of the only true circle roundbarns In Michigan, according to Walter
L Wallace, &lt;14 N. Francis, the only living person who worked on the
construction of this building tn 1907.
Mr Wal'ace, now 05, Is proud of having had a hand In erecting
the tarn when he was 17.
Since that time Wallace has becope a
well-known figure, having served as Hastings' city clerk and having
had an interest in a downtown retail business.
Wallace also served on the Hastings Board of Review, as assessor
for the First and Fourth Wards and at one time was treasurer of
Rotary
Wal'ace remembers that the round barn was built in the spring
of 1907, on the farm of Mr. and Mrs. Sylvester Boulard on 92nd Street
off M-50, about four and one-half miles north and west of Freeport.
Ears, one of the three sons of the Boulards, drafted and laid out
‘he construction of this 66 toot high true circle building. A 17 feet
by 65 feet silo from the basement to six and one-half feet above the
roof made a splendid support to tie the construction of the root.

It Is topped with cupola.
It took 58,000 feet of lumber to erect the building. The basement
has a clearance of 10 feet and a nine foot feed alloy and a teed carrier
which was a very satisfactory arrangement, Wallace recalled.
The stock faced the alley' and tad a litter carrier tack of the stalls
all the way around with an extended track outside.
The Purline plate and the sills In the basement were made with

half-Inch green elm.
Tta silo was constructed of two by six studding. Around the out­
side, half-inch elm boards were bent. The silo plastered Inside and

out
The tarn has a hip roof and tta skeleton consists of maple ribs
that were bent to conform to tta curve. Tta roofs galvanised metal
'ooks ilmost like new. The floor of tta barn Is made of plank wood
and tta mow built to tta left of tta silo is made with sturdy two by
eights.
'
.
Hay and grain are stored in this one large mow by a single track
and hoist around the side of the tarn. They can be dumped anywhere
In the mow.
Leap Karcher, a long time carpenter, was master of the barn's
construction
His helpers, other than Wallace, Included George
Leonard, John Mishler, Warren Roush, Don Phillips and Jaek Simp­
son assisted by Ears and Ward Boulard.
Tta tarn has had a square tarn added to Its rear.

One of the first and finest
high school football reviews ar­
rived froth Gull Lake HlghSchool
last week and Coach Dave Mathe­
son is in for a "rebuildingyear.”
Coach Matheson graduated one of
its finest crops of gridders in
Gull Lake's short six year his­
tory, a group that produced 11
victories and seven defeats in
two years.
The Blue Devils have only

three returning starters on of­
fense and -defense, and Just five
returning lettermen.
Virtually
the entire line
departed via
graduation.
For the
second year Gull
Lake's footballers have been un­
dergoing
extensive flexibility
training, a new concept in foot­
ball that does away with the tra­
ditional calisthenics
used for
many years. The program was
Initiated at Butler (Pennsylvania)
High School. Its basic concept,
Matheson said, is that of pro­
ducing full range of motion in
the different Joints of the body

along with stretching exercises.
Blue Devil hopefuls have been
involved in voluntary sessions
three nights a week.
Some boys have gained as much
as 20 pounds and much strength
through this activity.
Ox Cavazos of Central Michi­
gan University has Joined the
Gull Lake staff as varsity back
field coach.
He was a stand­
out at Hart High and played
college baseball.
Gull Lake's schedule Includes
a home game with Traverse City

minded that starting Sept. I they

seek shooting opportunities this

ty. . . Fewer than 19,000 an­
tlerless deer are expected to be
taken this fall by Michigan’s fire­
arm deer hunters under the 1971
shooting regulatons.
The kill
quotas have been limited to 6,120
animals in the U.P., 8,760 in
the northern Lower Peninsula,
and 4,140 in southern Michigan.
The state will offer 89,500 ant­
lerless deer hunting permits,
covering 38,500 square miles.
In the U.P,, where it was bucks
only last fall, hunting will con­

tinue to be restricted to bucks
in Keweenaw County and parts
of Gogebic, Ontonagon, Hough­
ton, Baraga, Marquette, Alger
and Telta Counties.
Southern
Michigan's ouota,
down about
’ nine percent from last season,
is aimed primarily at easing the
major haxard of car-deer ♦ac­
cidents.
It is also scaled to
maintain southern deer numbers
at the highest levels compatible
with the region’s highway system,
agricultural interests, and other
matters which involve interplay
between people and deer . . .
Popularity of canoes has caused
the DNR to draft rules and reg­
ulations to control their use on
state rivers. . . You can apply
now for permits to hunt bears
in the northern Lower Peninsula

Permits are on a

be made on a regular govern­
ment post card.

“Nothing beats a good peek
when selecting a watermelon”
says Sheila Morley, Michigan
State University consumer infor­
mation agent.
"To be sure, buy a cut melon,”
Mrs. Morley recommends.
A firm, crisp Interior free of
soft spots is a sign of water­
melon quality.
Another clue
is the color of the seeds. Most
should be black.
“White seeds are a sign of
immaturity and lack of flavor,”
Mrs. Morley explains.
Cut melons usually cost more
per pound than uncut melons.
But there is more labor involved
in cutting and wrapping the halves
or quarters. Also, melons with
cracked or broken flesh or a
white heart usually are not sold
and this loss must be absorbed
by the store.

draft bill, which is expected with­
in several weeks.
"Those young men with rela­
tively low lottery numbers who
are eligible for induction this
year,
particularly those with
numbers below 175—the current
processing ceiling—have a very
good chance of being processed
for induction after draft calls are
restored," Stamm said.
"Many young men seem to think
that the Selective Service Act has
permanently expired and that
they probably will never be draft­
ed.
Some of them also think
that the entire system has stop­
ped.
They are wrong since it
is only the induction authority
that has expired. They, there­
fore,
may be unintentionally
breaking the law by failing to
register at age 18, by not keep­
ing their local boards Informed
of their current address, or by
falling to report, if ordered, for
their preinduction physical ex­
aminations."
Stamm also stressed that local
boards are continuing to con­
sider CO, hardship, and student
deferments and to take other
classification actions. "The ex­
piration of the Induction author­
ity does not affect our respon
slbflity to classify young men,"
Mr. Stamm added.

Blueberry King
Michigan Is the blueberry king,
taking over the number om spot
in 1970.
Last year Michigan growers
harvested 29 million pounds of
the big blues. This year's crop
is expected to be slightly below
that, reports Ada Shlnabarger,
Michigan State University exten­
sion consumer Information agent.
When handling blueberriea,
Miss Shlnabarger suggests sort­
ing before refrigerating.
Use
the ripest fruit first, she says.
Wash all berries just before

using--moisture hastens mold
and spoilage.
When freezing blueberries,
just sort and place them In freez­
er containers.
Leave a half
inch headspace.
"They don't even need to be
washed—they'll keep belter If
they aren't," Miss Shlnabarger
says. "When it comes time to
use the frozen berries, they need
only to be rinsed after thawing."

Brown Arraigned for Murder
Robert Jay Brown, 31, 227
S. Hanover, Hastings, stood
mute Friday, Aug. 20, when
he was arraigned before Cir­
cuit Judge Richard Robinson
Friday morning on a charge
of murdering Mrs. Shirley
(Kathleen) Woods, 22, tn the
bedroom of her Wall Lake home
last Nov. 25.
The court entered a not guilty

Sherwood—Self Starter
A real go-getter.
That’s
the way a long time friend
described Robert W. Sherwood,
president of the National Bank
of Hastings. He's the kind of
man who doesn’t wait to be
told what to do.
He jumps
in, tackles a problem and often
succeeds.
And sitting comfortably in
his modern, early American
style office in the National Bank
reminded of his accomplish­
ments, he appeared proud. He
pointed out a handsome statuette
of a man sitting against a fence
with his arm propped on his
knee, seemingly holding up his
head. It was awarded to Sher­
wood in 1966 as a 25 year
award from the Ohio Farmers
Insurance Group.
Before he was elected as
president of the bank in 1965
Sherwood owned an Insurance
agency in Hastings, which he
had bought in 1947. Since that
time lie has been active in
business, civic, church and so­
cial functions.
Sherwood retired from the
Planning Commission of the
City Council last year after
14 years of service, ten of
which he was secretary. He
15 pleased with the progress
made in Hastings during this
time.

"Since 1966 we have in­
creased the assets of the bank
by nearly four million dollars,”
he said, "and we’re looking
forward to substantial growth
and prosperity in the commun­
ity tn the foreseeabl^future.”
The 46 year oldbusinessman
who beads 20 employees at the
bank was named "Boss of the
Year” In January at the Bosses
Night banquet at the Elks Lodge.
In 1968 the National Bank pur­
chased the old City Hall build­
ings and erected in its place
the new modern bank building.-

Price Freeze To Affect Barry County Economy

ALL THA’F'S LEFT— Twisted machinery and charred equipment was
all that remained after arsonists set fire to a storage shed on the
Harry Collier'llrm about 3:30 a.m. Thursday, Aug. 19. Carnage
was estimated at over $30,000, covered by insurance. Lost were
~ four tractors, a corn planter, dusters, sprayers, plows, discs,
10,000 empty bushel crates and there were 24 full ones of freshly
harvested onions.
The Colliers live on the Marsh Road, in Barry
County, but their farm extends west into Allegan, and this fire was
actually in Allegan County—Banner photo.

President Nixon’s 90 day
freeze of wages and prices are
reaching into every corner of
Barry County, along’with the
rest of the Nation.
Hastings Area School Dis­
trict teachers and administra­
tors slated to begin receiving
their wage hike of about 5 1/2
percent with the new ‘school
year under their three-year
contract, will not get their
raises under the executive ord­
er.
Spokesmen for southwestern
Michigan counties say they’re
waiting for federal guidelines
to be released before they know
the effect on labor negotiations
with county employees.
Meeting in Hast'—* Tuesday,
Aug. 17, the County . oard of
Commissioner
representa­
tives from Barry, Berrien, Al­
legan, Cass, Kalamazoo, St.

Joseph and Van Buren counties
comprising the "Key Men’s
Association of Southwestern
Michigan” said county workers
and sheriffs deputies are gen­
erally demanding higher sal­
aries in their current bargain­
ing negotiations.
Negotiations are usually held
in the respective count les prior
to adoption, usually in October,
of a permanent budget for the
following year.
Most county commissioners
Indicated they' feel the present
Federal wage-price freeze will
be extended past the 90-day
period announced by President
Nixon.
Counties are about at the
limit right now as to how far
they can go In granting any
wage increases anyway, they
said, and If salary demands
are excessive it may well ne­

cessitate laying off enough de­
puties and other county em­
ployees to stay within the in­
come of the respective count­
ies.

Fire Starts
In Apartment
Authorities have been invest­
igating the fire which was dis­
covered at 1:30 p.m., Thursday,
Aug. 19, in an apartment at
331 W. Court. The occupants,
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Hopkins,
and daughter, Mrs. Edna Rengle, were away and the fire
was reported by Mrs. Clara
Hine, according to the fire de­
partment report. A davenport,
rug, chair, mattress and bed
cover
were damaged. The

’Strong Medicine’ To Economy
Nader Overlooks Mass Media
Strange as it may seem, once in a long while, a Washington cor­
respondent has the temerity to write objectively of his own profes­
sion.
Take Richard Lee Strout, for example. Among the gems of
wisdom included in his recent commentary from the National Cap­
ital was the following:
,
"One thing has to be said: Next to the American Medical Asso­
ciation, no Institution is more resistant to self-reform than the
news media.
How is that Ralph Nadar has overlooked the news­
papers?"
Lucky that Vice President Agnes didn't say that!
Mr. Strout said something that needed to be said, even though
no reforms within the media are likely to result. Maybe the "Raiders" »
are overlooking a good bet. Here is another prospective field for
"viewing with alarm," after Nadar has finished with his current
projects.
However, since an investigation of this sort would doubtless af­
flict and injure the feelings of media top brass and commentators
right down the line, Nadar’s reception by the press might lack its
• customary warmth and understanding—might, in fact, become down­
right chilly. The press can chastise its own, but woe to anyone else
who tries!
Nadar is a smart operator and knows all this full well Therefore
it is doubtful that his Investigative talents will ever be directed
against the media, even though the media probably has as much
impact on life and living as do automobile producers, manufacturers,
government agencies—and even Congress. If he loses media sup­
port, he loses everything. So, the media is very like to remain
"off limits” for thej'Raiders "—and Indefinitely, at that

. Bold Move* To Reverse
Inflationary Trends
President Nixon’s announced new economic policy is apparently
the "strong medicine" needed to meet conditions that showed no
tendency to be corrected via the route of voluntary co-operation.
Many believe that the President delayed too long in taking action.
However, there was nothing timid or halfhearted in the statement
he made to the nation.
What he outlined was a bold series of
moves aimed at reversing inflationary trends that were threaten­
ing to price us out of the important international market as well
as creating unstable conditions on the home front.
It has been apparent for some time—as far back as the disastrous
General Motors "strike and the inflationary settlement resulting
therefrom—that^ojiintary co-operation was not going to work. The

only ouestlon was, how long could even so powerful a nation as the
United States keep on absorbing the wage-price spiral that seemed
to increase rather than moderate in intensity.
In announcing his new policy, President Nixon said, at least by
implication, that his optimistic forecasts made some months ago
had been proven wrong. But this very admission indicates that he
has what it takes to admit an error in judgement and to meet a
drastic crisis with drastic action.
The ninety day price-wage
moratorium is not the complete answer to a complex problem
and there will be difficult days ahead.
But at least it provides
a breathing speU to reconsider a dangerous situation and to plan
for a longer range when the present freeze is ended.
For the past few months, price increases which for a time showed
indications of leveling at a three per cent rate, have moved up
sharply to a rate of six per cent. Now, for the next ninety days,
the increase will be held at or near to zero. Our foreign trade,
which was heading for its first deficit since before the turn of the
century, should, as a result of the Nixon economic package, move
back into the black again.

Ten Percent Import Surcharge Can
Lead To More Realistic Exchange
The proposed ten percent* import surcharge on dutiable products
can lead to more realistic exchange rates in dealing with foreign
nations. Removing the dollar from a tie-up with gold and allowing
it to reach its own level in relation to other currencies is also a
step to improve our ability to compete abroad. Other nations have
been resisting a revaluation of their own currencies since it per­
mitted them to sell for less here in the U.S.A. and at the samq time
- made our goods more costly there.
A revaluation of foreign currencies in relation to the dollar will
have no effect on prices of American made goods here at home.
Adjustments, however, will tend to make the price of American
goods in local stores more competitive with foreign imports than
they are at present. This should have a stimulating effect on pro­
duction and employment here in the United States.
It was a matter of prestige for America to have a currency that
was accepted as the standard in international trade—but it turned
out to be an expensive prestige that we can ill afford. Of mudh
more importance is the move to make our nation competitive in
the international market. Even without the disadvantage of a dis­
torted currency valuation, the United States has the handicap of
much higher wage rates and fringe benefits than exist abroad. Much
of this can be offset by better productivity—although such nations
as Japan, Germany and Italy have modern and efficient plants that
were rebuilt after World War n with American loans and grants.
Other portions otyhe program proposed by President Nixon include

4

THE HASTINGS BANNER

August 25, 1971

a repeal of the seven percent auto excise tax; an investment credit
write off of ten percent on business investments in new equipment
and a speed-up In the schedule for Increasing personal Income tax
exemptions to pump more money back into the hands of consumers.
Congress, however, mast pass on these measures. All of the above,
if enacted, should prove to be a stimulation for business and increased
employment.
Along with these measures, the President has also proposed a cut
in Federal spending of $4.7 billion dollars. This has the approval
of the powerful House Ways 4 Means Committee and apparently
Congress is ready to give it full support. Certain domestic pro­
grams will have to be curtailed.
But, despite their value, such
programs do cost money and the money simply is not there. If this
is a trend away from deficit spending, it is a healthy trend long
overdue. The United States may be the world's wealthiest and most
powerful nation but even we cannot live beyond our means forever.
It is time to pull in our horns a bit and bring Federal spending and
Federal revenue more in line with reality._________________________

Mo»t Will Support Policy
if Nixon Stand* Firm
Most Americans, we believe, are going to like the President’s
program if he now exhibits the firmness and determination to make
it work.
But there is certain to be criticisms and protests from
influential power blocs.
Already, one big labor organization has,
by inference, at least, declared war on the government and dared
It to go through with its announced policies.
Maybe the time has come when we must find out whether we have
government by duly authorized government or government by power
blocs.
It will take added courage by the President to meet such
threats but this is a situation where firmness is definitely in order
to protect the public Interest and the Federal authority.
President Nixon will Undoubtedly have to exhibit an even greater
degree of intestinal fortitude during the weeks ahead than be did
In coming to his dramatic and much-needed decision.
We wish him well.

GENERAL MANAGER
Recently the Banner, under
a new management team, in­
erased its lineage and cov­
erage of industrial expansion
and its leadership.
We are pleased to appoint
Buzz Youngs to vice president
and managing editor. He has
served well in Barry County
for the last 25 years as a dis­
tinguished journalist
He is
civic minded and never con­
siders himself first.
He is
willing to cover the news 24
hours a day.
The Banner has the tradi­
tion of serving the people, even
though it sometimes has to take
a financial loss. Buzz deserves
a salute from all citizens in
Barry County.
He will con­
tinue to use his talent to be
Barry County’s people’s voice.
I personally know this ap­
pointment is special recogni­
tion for Buzz but it is also
deep conviction of the Banner
to make our paper better in
the years to come. We will
cover local interest stories,
including all Barry County com­
munities.
To make a profit is a fine
thing for local merchants but
without support
in editorial
policy and news coverage we
will not permit us to be on
the receiving end all the time.
A community can not survive
without its
voice and con­
science.
We are proud Buzz
Youngs has been the voice of
the Banner and conscience of
the community.

High School Diplomas Available
If you haven’t completed High
School — read on.
If you
have a high school diploma­
read on because you are need­
ed, according to Daryl Hartzler.
For many of you the even­
ings of Sept. 13, 14, and 16
will be very special
It is
these evenings that many Has­
tings area adults will begin
their last year toward com­
pletion of a High School dip­
loma.
For those 110 persons who
have graduated from the Lake­
wood - Hastings - Maple Val­
ley L.E.A.R.N. program the
diploma was more than a sheet
of paper. It was their key to
new self, a burying of the feel­
ing of failure, a birth of a new
and exciting outlook on life.
Those who have graduated
sncourage others to follow your
direction, those who are comtog back for your last year
talk with others not yet en­
rolled, and those who gradu­
ated with your class may be
the key to helping a person
return, Hartzler said.
One half of your credits
towards graduation can be
aarned through successfully
:ompleting the G.E.D. Credits
can also be given .for work
experience, military service,

correspondence courses. You
may be very close to your own
personal diploma. Before Sept.
1 call Daryl Hartzler, Lake­
wood Community Education of­
fice 374-8510, after Sept. 1
call 948-8484 for an appoint­
ment or stop in at the Hastings

9 a.m. - 5 p.m. and 6 p.m. 9 p.m. until September 10. Fri­
days 1-5 p.m. only.
"Come in and let us help
you to something you probably
always wanted—your own dip­
loma.
You know, of course,
that you can complete your
high school education without
cost to you.
Take that step
to the phone, and call us,”
Hartzler concluded.

�DAWN PATROL
ATTRACTS 3,000
PROMOTED BY FLYING ASSOCIATION, CHAMBER

Mr. and Mrs. John Davis, Austin Lake

Upwards of 3,000 persons were on hand at the Hastings Airport
Sunday for the annual Dawn Patrol sponsored by the Hastings Fly­
ing Association with the assistance of the Hastings Area Chamber
of Commerce and other groups.
Bryce Hindes, president of the Flying Association and manager
of the field for Hastings Aviation which operates the airport, said
about 215 planes had landed by U a.m. and some 1,150 men, women
and children had enjoyed breakfast served by the Flying Association.
There were many highlights, but the most thrilling was the sky
diving by five Allegan Sky Divers. The divers, Ken Coleman, Sam
Brown, Sandy Reid, Don Carpenter and Bruce Bickford, left their
plane at’ 10,000 feet, fell free to about 2,500 feet before opening their
chutes
AH landed within 25 feet of the “X” laid out on the field, and three
landed within 10 feet of their target, in their morning dive.
Among the planes landing were experimental ships, antiques and
many other types.
Antique cars made their appearance, en route to Chariton Park
for the second annual antique auto show and swap, sponsored by
the Battle Creek Chapter of the Veteran Motor Car Club of Ameri­
ca.
One of the first to arrive at the airport was a 1912 White li­
mousine, owned and driven by Joe Niewiek of Gun Lake Road, R3
Middleville. His wife, Marilyn, was with him.

The first plane to land was piloted by Rod Wilkins, 26, William­
ston, who touched down at 6:50 a.m. tn his Cessna 170B, with his
father-in-law, Charles Moore, 53, of St. Johns, as his passenger.
Wilkins works at Olds at Lansing.
The second plant to land was piloted by Tildon Pinckney, 57, of"
Lowell, who flew in from the Greenville airport in his Cessna 172.
Pinckney flew the ship here, and his passenger, James Riggle, 33,
Rockford, was the pilot on the return trip. Pinckney is a heavy
eouipment operator for the Kent County Road Commission, and
Riggle Is a rate and claims clerk for Bemack Transport of Grand
Rapids.
Charles Colins of 720 S. Cass had a Hastings Mfg. Company's
specially painted Plymouth Roadrunner Super Bird on display. It
is one of three used by the company's salesmen to promote Casite.
Among the antique planes was Nolan Bartow's 1936 Porterfield
single engine monoplane. Bartow, 53, of East Lansing, is a violin
maker who plays the cornet with the Lansing VFW band. He has
his own shop where he makes his violins. The Porterfield is one of
the few remaining ships of its kind and it has been appraised at
$4,875.
The "rare bird” was built in Kansas City, Mo., and the
LuBlonde engine was built in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Bartow said he had seen just one or two other Porterfields in all
his U.&amp; travels. It is fully acrobatic.

Priests came here from Jackson, Kalamazoo, and Niles to^oMbrate
Mass, and in the early 1850s Catholics met in a log church near the
old Yankee Springs Tavern.
In 1886 a frame church was built and services were held there for
23 years
This building, too, met Ill-fate. In 1909 It was destroyed
by fire believed to have been started from defective wiring. From
then until the present church was completed In 1915, services were
held in the school halL

Stones actually collected from the fields nearby were used to con­
struct the present edifice In 1911. W. J. Wiley, a widely-known stone
mason in the community, was In charge of the building and supervised
the laying of most of the stones with volunteer labor.
The Interior of the church, which was redecorated in the Summer of
1963, is beautiful in its simplicity. In addition to the main portion of
the auditorium containing the main altar, there were two side altars,
the altar of SL Joseph and the altar of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
The stained glass windows in the building, 18 in all, were given to
the church in memory of many of the original members of the parish.
Four of the small windows above the main altar, given by organizations
of the Church, depict St. Matthew, St Mark, St. Luke and St. John.
The 14 stations of the cross, molded in plaster and beautifully
painted, were donated by another par lab that was rebuilding its church
at that time. The original Stations of the Cross were destroyed by the
fire.
In November of 1947, Rev. Fr. John V. Dillon, the pastor, announced
that the parish was free of debt, 36 years after construction of the
Romanesque structure. The final payment of $3,150 was made that
month.
At that time the structure was estimated to be valued at
$75,000.
The cornerstone of the church was consecrated by the Rt. Rev.
Bishop E.D. Kelley, D.D., of Ann Arbor, oo July 5,1911, following
a confirmation service held In the school halL Bishop Kelley con­
firmed 60 persons on that day.
After the confirmation, according to The Banner files, Father
Kauffman of Mendon, as crossbearer, led the procession of visiting
religious
dignitaries to
the
church were Bishop Kelley de­
dicated It to the Honor and Glory of God. The Rev. Fr. Llnakay
was pastor here at that time and The Banner states that he was
"untiring in his efforts to promote construction of the new church.”
The St. Rose School was rebuilt in 1924, and the second or "new”
St. Rose School was constructed In I96L G. O. Lewis Company of
Battle Creek was the general contractor for a sum of more than
$53,500.
The SL Rose Rectory was known as the Burton Home, purchased
by the parish from the estate of Mrs. Belle H. Burton for $25,000.
Rev. Fr. (now monsignor) J. A. Moleski was pastor at the time.
The Burton home was also built of native stone, and was desired
by the parishioners for many years because it seemed to "belong”
with the church. Many, many visitors bad long stopped at the home,
thinking it must be the parsonage.
The old parsonage, between the school and church, was purchased
by Herman (Chip) SL Martin and moved to a lot on E. Clinton.
Ove5 the years, St. Rose pastors have also administered to missions,
organizing the St. Augustine parish at Middleville, St Ambrose at
Felton and Our Lady of Great Oak at Lacey.
The first Mass was celebrated by Rev. Fr. Joseph C. Dunphy (now
monsignor) in the new Our Lady of Great Oak Church at 10:30 a.m.
on Sunday, Fee. 31, 1962. Members of the SL Rose Choir, under the
direction of Herbert Moyer with Mrs. Wayne Peterson playing the
organ, sang the High Mass. Father Moleski had opened the mission
at Fowling in July of 1955. Masses were celebrated at the Johnstown
Grange Hall and at Hlnkens tending at Clear Lake. Rt. Rev. Bishop
Allan James Babcock of Grand Rapids dedicated the church in July
of 1962.
Bishop Babcock dedicated St. Ambrose at Delton tn April of 1964.
The first section of the Delton Church was blessed in July of 1954 by
Father Mole ski (now monsignor). The first known public Mass was
celebrated by Father Moleski in the Delton Community Hall on
September 17, 1950.
Father Moleski held the First Holy Communion service "ever” at
Middleville on Oct. 25, 1953, at the mission he organized three
years before
The first Catholic Mass was celebrated there at the
Knights of Pythias Hall in September, 1950.
Over the years, many changes have taken place at St. Rose, and
English was used in the Mass for the first time on Sunday, Nov.
29, 1964.
The first Folk Mass was held on Sunday, Dec. 31, 1968,
with the instrumentalists, Nancy Ellis, Stephen L. Youngs, Bill
and Jim Ellis and Tom Kessenlch.
The parish’s patron saint is St. Rose of Lima, who was born
in Uma Peru, in 1586.

The Christian Position
ky Fitkir liyatid C. SonliN

The following is a true story.
It was the Sunday after the Invailoo of Cambodia and the killings
at Kent State. A deacon went to a suburban church to preach. Con­
sidering his young age, you can guess what his topic would be, the
position be would take and the tone of voice he used.
- Five minutes after he started, a man in the back of the church
’stood up, and Mid, "I am fed up with politics. I came here to hear
about religion. "
Now some people In the church took sides and
began to debate.
Soon a Quarter of the congregation left. Some of them banged the
door of the church so hard that the stained glass cracked and broke.
The celebrant and pastor tried to calm everyone down. But they
went on so long with their soothing words that a lady In the church
arose and said: "Cut out the nonsense and get on with the Eucharist!”
Each person, of course, will react In a different way to this story.
What are we coming to0 Who would have thought ten years ago that
this could happen to us?
But let's get to the heart of the problem. This is what you think
every time you read or hear someone in religion discuss or mis
politics or world events with religion.

SHIRLEY BRYAN radiates
the CAPPON smile from her

bookkeeper hnd is very
capable of efficiently
serving as a receptionist.
Another of CAPPON’S hap­
py folks is Mary Ranguette,
also a bookkeeper, who was
unable to be present for

. . .YES, exciting things are happen­
ing at CAPPON OIL COMPANY*. We’re proud to
announce that our company has just moved
into a brand new, expanded quarters at S..
Bedford Rd. (across from Goodyear Bros.)
and have achieved a New Look in modernized
buildings, equipment and business technique^
that will enable us to offer marked improve­
ments in all phases of our service.
This investment in progress is our way
of saying "thanks" to our many friends and
customers for their continued, appreciated
loyalty, and serves as an invitation to new
customers to try our "personal brand of
service.“
When you require petroleum and gasoline
products we encourage you to think of us
FIRST. When you contact CAPPON, we‘11 be
there before you can say "CAPPON MAKES IT
HAPPEN *
. . .and at first opportunity you're
cordially invited to stop by at our new
location. We'd love to see you.

DUTCH CAPPON, pictured with his wife, VONDA
who is a vital part of the CAPPON Corporation
while serving as secretary and vice president,
went into business for himself eight years ago
when he purchased the Cities Service operation
from E. B. Caukin. Prior to that Mr. Cappon
served Barry County in a similar capacity,
bringing 22 years of experience to busi­
ness. Mrs. Cappon lends a helping hand in the
bookkeeping department.

DUTCH CAPPON inserts a ticket into the
company's Lockheed automated computer■printer. This sophisticated little device
is a thinker and automatically prints to­
tal gallonage on the invoice for customer
while adding up the figures to save time
and reduce the possibility of mistakes.
CAPPON OIL invested $1100 in this meter
and now has installed one on every truck.

CLEAN AND SHINY equipment prevails at CAPPON OIL. This trio of
trucks is poised at all times, serving more than 1200 customers all
over Barry county. Dutch Cappon steadfastly believes in maintaining
good equipment thus keeping reliable, dependant trucks on the road
for absolute assurance of first quality service at all times.
Pictured with Mr. Cappon are talented drivers Dick Van Engen and
Terry Dale.

CORNELL OIL TRUCK deposits one of its huge
loads of petroleum products at CAPPON OIL.
The tanker has a capacity of I2,OO0 gallons
and serves CAPPON from CITGO*S Grand Rapids
headquarters, and is part of a fleet making
regular uninterruped deliveries. *We are very
pleased and happy with the prompt service
maintained by CITGO**, Mr. Cappon enthused,
"when we can take this kind of cooperation
for granted, it makes our job easier and
a real pleasure?'

�Be a Big Brother To a Fatherless Boy
Somewhere in your neighbor­
hood there is a boy—who needs
a man.
You have not met
him yet. This boy is father­
less; he is without adult male
companionship; be needs a man
he can call his own. He needs
a man who can help him through
Ms growing years. This boy
needs a man like you.
Big Brothers of Lakewood
is an organization with its own
Board of Directors and is af­
filiated with the Lakewood
Community
CounciL
They
want to match fatherless boys
with volunteer men (BigBrothersl The Big Brothers work
with the Little Brothers on an
Individual and personal basis.

Big Brother work for the
man is a deeply satisfying ex­
perience and offers an oppor­
tunity for direct personal ser­
vice without legal or financial
responsibility. The Big Broth­
er usually combines his meet­
ings with his boy along with
other social and recreational
activities.
The boy is referred to us
from many sources—the home,
school, a friend, or other so­
cial agencies.
Any person
in the community may refer
the boy for potential service.
The Big Brother comes to
us as a well adjusted man
and of good character—a man
who is willing to Invest his

time and himself in a boy.
He would be at least 21 and
could be employed anyplace.
He may, in fact, be you.
The work of our Big Broth­
er is supervised by a profes­
sional staff trained in handl­
ing the problems of youth. They
will assist in assigning you to

an appropriate Little Brother
and help you develop a con­
structive friendship with him.
You’ll find this planned and
constructive friendship to be
tbe most worthwhile and grati­
fying venture you have ever
undertaken. The week-to-week
satisfactions are as great for

the man as for the boy. No
boy ever forgets the man who
extends his hand when the way
was rough and uncertain.
Somewhere today there is
a boy who needs you.
Won’t you get in touch with
us so we can Introduce you
to him.
You are needed to
assure a boy that tbe future
holds happiness and promise.
BE BIG! BE A BIG BROTH­
ER! Contact Daryl Hart tier,

White beads of dsw still glisten
on each leaf
And coral dawn and early blue
skies bleed;
A garden Is a place to ease
ones grief. . .
A quiet place where silence

When sunset shadows ftee be­
fore tired feet
And copper glow has had its
Inter hide,
A garden Is a place of sweet
retreat...
A quiet place to walk In solitude.

ican Red Cross.
Possessed with a deep con­
cern for our youth and civic

progress, Mr. Youngs has for
many years demonstrated his
avid support through his per­
sonal

"Armchair
Athlete.” * As a gesture of
recognition to the usefullness
of this man to the community,
he was named "Man of the

mony had .proved that a crime

print expert satisfied him that
authorities had reason to bold
Brown and that he was binding
him over for trial.

from a .22, as she was pre­
paring to go to work In Kala­

ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTEENTH YEAR

NO. 21

/Sherwood—Self Starter
A real go-getter.
That’s
the way a long time friend
described Robert W. Sherwood,
president of tbe National Bank
of Hastings. He’s the kind of
man who doesn’t wait to be
told what to do.
He jumps
in, tackles a problem and often
succeeds.
And sitting comfortably In
his modern, early American
style office In the National Bank
reminded of his accomplish­
ments, he appeared proud. He
pointed outahandsome statuette
of a man sitting against afeoce
with his arm propped on his
knee, seemingly holding up his
bead. It was awarded to Sher­
wood In 1966 as a 25 year
award from the Ohio Farmers
Insurance Group.
Before be was elected as
president of tbe bank in 1965
Sherwood owned an Insurance
agency In Hastings, which he
had bought In 1947. Since that
time he has been active in
business, civic, church and so­
cial functions.
Sherwood retired from tbe
Planning Commission of tbe
City Council last year after
14 years of service, ten of
which he was secretary. He
15 pleased with the progress
made In Hastings during this
time.

“Since 1966 we have in­
creased the assets of the bank
by nearly four mllllbn dollars,”
he said, “and we’re looking
forward to substantial growth
and prosperity in the commun­
ity in the foreseeable future.”
The 46 year old businessman
who beads 20 employees at the
bank was named “Boss of the
Year” in January at the Boeses
Night banquet at the Elks Lodge.
In 1968 the National Bank pur­
chased the old City Hall build­
ings and erected in its place
the new modern bank building.

there Is no leadership the pro­
gram will probably die in Has­
tings."

Writes Preface

Price Freeze To Affect Barry County Economy

ALL THAT’S-LEFT— Twisted machinery and charred equipment was
all that remained after arsonists set fire to a storage shed on tbe
Harry Collier farm about 3:30 a.m. Thursday, Aug. 19. Damage
was estimated at over $30,000, covered by insurance. Lost were
four tractors, a corn planter, dusters, sprayers, plows, discs,
10,000 empty bushel crates and there were 24 full ones of freshly
harvested onions.
The Colliers live on the Marsh Road, in Barry
County, but their farm extends west into Allegan, and this fire was
actually in Allegan County—Banner photo.

President Nixon’s 90 day
freeze of wages and prices are
reaching into every corner of
Barry County, along with the
rest of the Nation.
Hastings Area School Dis­
trict teachers and administra­
tors slated to begin receiving
’ their wage hike of about 5 1/2
percent with the new sdhool
year under their three-year
contract, will not get their
raises under the executive ord­
er.
Spokesmen for southwestern
Michigan counties say they’re
waiting for federal guidelines
to be released before they know
the effect on labor negotiations
with county employees.
Meeting in Hast''—Tuesday,
Aug. 17, the Count&gt; . oard of
Commissioner
representa­
tives from Barry, Berrien, Al­
legan, Cass, Kalamazoo, St.

Joseph and Van Buren counties
comprising the "Key Men’s
Association of Southwestern
Michigan" said county workers
and sheriff’s deputies are gen*
erally demanding higher sal­
aries in their current bargain­
ing negotiations.
Negotiations are usually held
in the respective counties prior
to adoption, usually in October,
of a permanent tyidget for the
following year.
Most county commissioners
indicated they feel the present
Federal wage-price freeze will
be extended past the 90-day
period announced by President
Nixon.
-»
Counties are about at the
limit right now as to how far
they can go in granting any
wage increases anyway, they
said, and if salary demands
are excessive it may well ne­

cessitate laying off enough de­
puties and other county em­
ployees to stay within the in­
come of the respective count­
ies.

Fire Starts
In Apartment
Authorities have been invest­
igating tbe fire which was dis­
covered at 1:30 p.m., Thursday,
Aug. 19, in an apartment at
331‘W. Court The occupants,
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Hopkins,
and daughter, Mrs. Edna Rengle, were away and tbe fire
was reported by Mrs. Clara
Hine, according to the fire de­
partment report. A davenport,
rug, chair, mattress and bed
cover were damaged. The
building is owned by Archie
Scott of Charlotte.

’Strong Medicine’ To Economy
Nader Overlook* Ma** Media Strange as it may seem, once in a long while, a Washington cor­
respondent has the temerity to write objectively of his own profes­
sion.
Take Richard Lee Strout, for example. Among the gems of
wisdom Included in his recent commentary from the National Cap­
ital was the following:
.
“One thing has to be said: Next to the American Medical Asso­
ciation, no institution is more resistant to self-reform than the
news media.
How is that Ralph Nadar has overlooked the news­
papers?"
Lucky that Vice President Agnes didn’t say that!
Mr. Strout said something that needed to be said, even though
no reforms within the media are likely to result. Maybe the “Raiders*’
are overlooking a good bet. Here is another prospective field for
“viewing with alarm,” after Nadar has finished with his current
projects.
However, since an investigation of this sort would doubtless af­
flict and injure the feelings of media top brass and commentators
right down the line, Nadar's reception by the press might lack its
customary warmth and understanding--might, in fact, become down­
right chilly. The press can chastise its own, but woe to anyone else
who tries!
Nadar is a smart operator and knows all this full welt Therefore
It is doubtful that his investigative talents will ever be directed
against the media, even though the media probably has as much
impact on life and living as do automobile producers, manufacturers,
government agencies—and even Congress. If he loses media sup­
port, he loses everything.
So, the media is very like to remain
“off limits" for the/‘Raiders”—and indefinitely, at that.

Bold Move* To Reverse
Inflationary Trend*
President Nixon’s announced new economic policy Is apparently
the "strong medicine" needed to meet conditions that showed no
tendency to be corrected via the route of voluntary co-operation.
Many believe that the President delayed too long in taking action.
However, there was nothing timid or halfhearted in the statement
he made to the nation.
What he outlined was a bold series of
moves aimed at reversing inflationary trends that were threaten­
ing to price us out* of the important Internationa] market as well
as creating unstable conditions on the home front.
It has been apparent for some time—as far back as the disastrous
General^ "Motors^ strike and the inflationary settlement resulting
therefrom—tljaproluntary co-operation was not going to work. The
only Question was, how long could even so powerful a nation as the
United States keep on absorbing the wage-price spiral that seemed
to increase rather than moderate in intensity.
In announcing his new policy, President Nixon said, at least by
implication, that his optimistic forecasts made some months ago
had been proven wrong. But this very admission indicates that be
has what it takes to admit an error in judgement and to meet a
drastic crisis with drastic action.
The ninety day price-wage
moratorium is not the complete answer to a complex problem
and there will be difficult days ahead.
But at least it provides
a breathing spell to reconsider a dangerous situation and to plan
for a longer range when the present freeze is ended.
For the past few months, price Increases which for a time showed
indications of leveling at a three per cent rate, have moved up
sharply to a rate of six per cent. Now, for the next ninety days,
the increase will be held at or near to zero. Our foreign trade,
which was heading for its first deficit since before the turn of the
century, should, as a result of the Nixon economic package, move
back into the black again.

Ten Percent Import Surcharge Can
Lead To More Realistic Exchange
The proposed ten percent import surcharge on dutiable products
can lead to more realistic exchange rates in dealing with foreign
nations. Removing tbe dollar from a tie-up with gold and allowing
It to reach itsOwn level in relation to other currencies is also a
step to improve our ability to compete abroad. Other nations have
been resisting a revaluation of their own currencies since it per-^
mltted them to sell for less here in the U.S.A, and at the seme time
made our goods more costly there.
A revaluation of foreign currencies in relation to tbe dollar will
have no effect on prices of American made goods here at home.
s Adjustments, however, will tend to make the price of American
goods In local stores more competitive with foreign imports than
they are at present. This should have a stimulating effect on pro­
duction and employment here in the United States.
It was a matter of prestige for America to have a currency that
was accepted as the standard in international trader-but it turned
out to be an expensive prestige that we can ill afford. Of much
more Importance is the move to make our nation competitive in
the international market. Even without the disadvantage of a dis­
torted currency valuation, the United States has the handicap of
much higher wage rates and fringe benefits than exist abroad. Much
of this can be offset by better productivity—although such nations
as Japan, Germany and Italy have-'modern and efficient plants that
were rebuilt after World War II with American loans and grants.
Other portion^ of the program proposed by President Nixon Include

THE HASTINGS BANNER

August 25, 1971

a repeal of the seven percent auto excise taxi an investment credit
write off of ten percent on business Investments in new equipment
and a speed-up in the schedule for Increasing personal income tax
exemptions to pump more money back into the hands of consumers.
Congress, however, must pass on these measures. All of the above,
if enacted, should prove to be a stimulation for business and increased
employment.
Along with these measures, tbe President has also proposed a cut
in Federal spending of $4.7 billion dollars. This has the approval
of the powerful House Ways &amp; Means Committee and apparantly
Congress is ready to give it full support. Certain domestic pro­
grams will have to be curtailed.
But, despite their value, such
programs do cost money and the money simply is not there. If this
is a trend away from deficit spending, it is a healthy trend long
overdue. The United States may be the world’s wealthiest and most
powerful nation but even we cannot live beyond our means forever.
It is time to pull in our horns a bit and bring Federal spending and
•Federal revenue more in line with reality._________________________

Most Will Support Policy
if Nixon Stand* Firm
Most Americans, we believe, are going to like the President’s
program if he now exhibits the firmness and determination to make
it work.
But there is certain to be criticisms and protests from
influential power blocs.
Already, one big labor organization has,
by Inference, at least, declared war on the government and dared
it to go through with its announced policies.
Maybe the time has come when we must find out whether we have
government by duly authorized government or government by power
blocs.
It will take added courage by the President to meet such
threats but this Is a situation where firmness Is definitely In order
to protect the public Interest and the Federal authority.
President Nixon will undoubtedly have to exhibit an even greater
degree of intestinal fortitude during the weeks ahead than be did
in coming to his dramatic and much-needed decision.
We wish him well.

Visitor Praises
Medical Facility
To the Editor:
I went out to the medical
care facility recently and was
impressed, as always, with the
efficiency of its operation. But
what is still of greater import­
ance is the evidence of those
nurses devotion to ttjeir/vork,
far beyond the^eill of duty.
They must have a wonderful
system of therapy, also, as they
will bring patients' there pre­
sumably “on their last legs”
and in no time at all they are
able to look after themselves
to a great extent.
It is one institution that Barry
Co.

Residents’ Yards
men and didn’t pay any atten­
tion to the rowdies who had
bothered them.
There had teen aJ gang of
sassy kids on the sidewalk
all day, and after dark drag­
ging things around to make
noise, and digging up other
people's yard.
If you said
a word, they told you that you
don't own your property. They
haven’t got any bringing up.
It isn’t any of their business,
but my property was paid for
before I moved here.
x
I don’t dare. say a word,
no matter what they do. The
renters and their kids and other
renter's kids run everything.
The parents don’t know what is
right or wrong any more than
the kids do.
I told one boy not to come
here again after I saw him
digging my yard up. He said
I didn’t own the property and
kept on coming.
He is not
very smart to come where he
is not welcomed.
When the
ring leaders were gone a week,
everything was peaceful.
I
have seen things I have never
seen before. I, heard that one
mother
was
setting the
rowdies up.

BY PAUL P. CHIEN
GENERAL MANAGER
Recently the Banner, under
a new management team, in­
erased its lineage and cov­
erage of industrial expansion
and its leadership.
We are pleased to appoint
Buzz Youngs to vice president
and managing editor. He has
served well in Barry County
for the last 25 years as a dis­
tinguished journalist.
He is
civic minded and never con­
siders himself first.
He is
willing to cover the news 24
hours a day..
The Banner has the tradi­
tion of serving the people, even
though it sometimes has to take
a financial loss. Buzz deserves
a salute from all citizens in
Barry County.
He will con­
tinue to use his talent to be
Barry County's people’s voice.
I personally know this ap­
pointment is special recogni­
tion for Buzz but it is also
deep conviction of the Banker
to make our paper better in
the years to come. We will
cover local interest ptcries,
including all Barry County com­
munities.
To make a profit is a fine
thing for local merchants but
without support
in editorial
policy and news coverage we
will not permit us to be on
the receiving end all the time.
A community can not survive
without its
voice and con­
science.
We are proud Buzz
Youngs has been the voice of
the Banner and conscience of
the community.

�DAWN PATROL
ATTRACTS 3,000
PROMOTED BY FLYING ASSOCIATION, CHAMBER

Mr. and Mrs. John Davis, Austin Lake

Upwards of 3,000 persons were on hand at the Hastings Airport
Sunday for the annual Dawn Patrol sponsored by the Hastings Fly­
ing Association with the assistance of the Hastings Area Chamber
of Commerce and other groups.
Bryce Hindes, president of the Flying Association and manager
of the field for Hastings Aviation which operates the airport, said
about 215 planes had landed by 11 a.m. and some 1,150 men, women
and children had enjoyed breakfast served by tbe Flying Association.
There were many highlights, but the most thrilling was the sky
diving by five Allegan Sky Divers. The divers, Ken Coleman, Sam
Brown, Sandy Reid, Don Carpenter and Bruce Bickford, left their
plane at 10,000 feet, fell free to about 2,500 feet before opening their
chutes
All landed within 25 feet of the “X” laid out on the field, and three
landed within 10 feet of their target, in their morning dive.
Among the planes landing were experimental ships, antiques and
many other types.
.
Antinue cars made their appearance, en route to Charlton Park
for the second annual antique auto show and swap, sponsored by
the Battle Creek Chapter of tbe Veteran Motor Car Club of Ameri­
ca.
One of the first to arrive at the airport was a 1912 White li­
mousine, owned and driven by Joe Nlewiek of Gun Lake Road, R3
Middleville. His wife, Marilyn, was with him.

The first plane to land was piloted by Rod Wilkins, 26, William­
ston, who touched down at 6:50 a.m. in his Cessna 170B, with his
father-in-law, Charles Moore, 53, of St. Johns, as his passenger.
Wilkins works at Olds at Lansing.
The second plant to land was piloted by Tildon Pinckney, 57, of
Lowell, who flew in from the Greenville airport in his Cessna 172.

old cooper shop on South Hanover to use as a church. Nine years later
a heavy snow caved in the roof of the church and again Masses were
held in the homes of the parishioners.

August 25, 1971

Priests came here from Jackson, Kalamazoo, and Niiesto celebrate
Mass, and in (he early 1850s Catholics met in a log church near the
old Yankee Springs Tavern.
In 1886 a frame church was built and services were held there for
23 years
This building, too, met ill-fete. In 1909 It was destroyed
by fire believed to have been started from defective wiring. From
then until the present church was completed In 1915, services were
held In tbe school hall.

Slones actually collected from the fields nearby were used to con­
struct the present edifice In 19U. W. J. Wiley, a widely-known stone
mason in the community, was In charge of the building and supervised
the laying of most of the stones with volunteer labor.
The Interior of the church, which was redecorated tn the Summer of
1963, is beautiful in Its simplicity. In addition to the main portion of
the auditorium containing the main altar, there were two side altars,
the altar of St. Joseph and tbe altar of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
The stained glass windows in the building, 18 In all, were given to
the church in memory of many of the original members of the parish.
Four of the smsfl windows above the main altar, given by organizations
of the Church, depict St. Matthew, St. Mark, St Luka and St. John.
The 14 stations of the cross, molded tn plaster and beautifully
painted, were donated by another parish that was rebuilding its church
at that time. The original Stationsoftbe Cross were destroyed by the
fire.
In November of 1947, Rev. Fr. John V. Dillon, tbe pastor, announced
that the parish was free of debt, 36 years after construction of tbe
Romanesque structure. The final payment of 33,150 was made that
month.
At that time the structure was estimated to be valued at
175,000.
The cornerstone of the church was consecrated by the Rt. Rev.
Bishop E.D. Kelley, D.U, of Ann Arbor, on July 5,1911, following
a confirmation service held in the school halt Bishop Kelley con­
firmed 60 persons on that day.
After the confirmation, according to The Banner files, Father
Kauffman of Mendon, as crossbearer, led the procession of visiting
religious
dignitaries
to
the church were Bishop Kelley de­
dicated it to the Honor and Glory of God. The Rev. Fr. Llnskay
was pastor here at that time and Tbe Banner states that he was
"untiring in his efforts to promote construction of tbe new church."
The St. Rose School was rebuilt In 1924, and the second or "new"
St Rose School was constructed In 196L G. O. Lewis Conpany of
Battle Creek was the general contractor for a sum of more than
353,500.
The St. Rose Rectory was known as the Burton Home, purchased
by tbe parish from the estate of Mrs. Belle H. Burton for $25,000.
Rev. Fr. (now monsignor) J. A. Moleski was pastor at tbe time.
Tbe Burton home was Also built of native stone, and was desired
by the parishioners for many years because It seemed to "belong"
with the church. Many, many visitors had long stopped at the home,
thinking It must be the parsonage.
The old parsonage, between tbe school and church, was purchased
by Herman (Chip) St. Martin and moved to a lot on E. Clinton.
Ovex the years, St. Rose pastors have also administered to missions,
organizing the St. Augustine parish at Middleville, St. Ambrose at
Delton and Our Lady of Great Oak at Lacey.
The first Mass was celebrated by Rev. Fr. Joseph C. Dunphy (now
monsignor) In the new Our Lady of Great Oak Church at 10:30 a.m.
on Sunday, Dec. 31, 1962. Members of the St. Rose Choir, under the
direction of Herbert Moyer with Mrs. Wayne Peterson playing the
organ, sang the High Mass. Father Moleski had opened the mission
at Dowling in July of 1955. Masses were celebrated at the Johnstown
Grange Hall and a» IIinkens Landing at Clear Lake. Rt. Rev. Bishop
Allan James Babcock of Grand Rapids dedicated the church In July
of 1962.
Bishop Babcock dedicated St. Ambrose at Delton In April of 1964.
The first section of the Delton Church was blessed In July of 1954 by
Father Moleski (qpw monsignor). The first known public Mass was
celebrated by Father Moleski in the Delton Community Hall on
September 17, 1950.
Father Moleski held the First Holy Communion service "ever" at
Middleville on Oct. 25, 1953, at the mission he organized three
years before. The first Catholic Mass was celebrated there at tbe
Knights of Pythias Hall In September, 1950.
Over the years, many changes have taken place at St. Rose, and
English was used In the Mass for the first time on Sunday, Nov.
29, 1964.
The first Folk Mass was held on Sunday, Dec. 31, 1968,
with the instrumentalists, Nancy Ellis, Stephen L. Youngs, BUI
and Jim Ellis and Tom Kessenlch.
The parish’s patron saint is SL Rose of Lima, who was born
In Lima. Peru, in 1586.

The Christian Position
ky Fatbar layaiH C. SmtiH
The following Is a true story.
It was the Sunday after tbe Invasion of Cambodia and the kilHngs
at Kent State. A deacon went to a suburban church to preach. Con­
sidering his young age, you can guess what his topic would be, the
position be would take and the tone of voice be used.
Five minutes after he started *a man In the back of tte church
stood up, and said, "I am fed up with politics. I came here to hear
about religion."
Now some people tn the church took sides and
began to debate.
Soon a Quarter of tbe congregation left. Some of them banged tbe
door of the church so hard that the stained glass cracked and broke.
The celebrant and pastor tried to calm everyone down. But they
went on so long with their soothing words that a lady In the church
arose and said: “Cut out the nonsense and get on with the Eucharist!**
Each person, of course, will react in a different way to this story.
What are we coming to? Who would have thought ten years ago that
this could happen to us?
But let's get to the heart of the problem. This is what you think
every time you read or hear someone In religion discuss or mix
politics or world events with religion.
What is the "Christian"

position when the issue Is muddied and controversial? Is there
a correct "Christian" position when leaders in religion, sincere
and dedicated to the teachings of Christ, take opposite stands?
The deacon assumed that his pacifist pose was the true Christian
position. What could please Christ more. Truly this is the will of
God The deacon probably thought that the man who challenged him
to get beck to religion was childishly separating religion from life.
This was not necessarily so, for tbe gentleman"was quite willing
to relate religion to life. What he objected to was a too easy Identifying
of a particular position on the war with thejvlll of Christ.
If this were clearly evident then he would see no problem. The
very fact that a debate ensued in the church Illustrated that the
Christian people had not yet determined what was tbe ultimate
position to take on the war.
It is not right to turn the pulpit into a rostrum. It is wrong to
turn the Eucharistic assembly Into a debating society, let alone
a political forum
What should be an assembly of peace turns out to be a war in the
name of peace. What ought to create unity in Christ results rather
in angry divisions. Witness the mad people who stormed out, leaving
behind a vestibule of shattered glass.
roes this mean that preachers ought never to address a controver­
sial Issue? Of course not. But they should keep tn mind some rules.
1. Be careful of naming a "Christian" position. When the matter
is In doubt, then It is not certain what is God’s will. A doubtful
position does not bind. It’s ail right to give your own position as
long as you fairly present tbe other sides. The preacher has a
captive audience who can’t answer back and he should respect their
intelligence and sincerity and not use his pulpit authority to force
his views on the congregations in these controversial Issues.
2. See tbe divine horizon. All human controversy Is short term
insofar as feelings evaporate and opinions change.
Tbe divine
horizon is long term. Il communicates a perspective from which
to look at our problems. Perspective is the key term.
The Eucharistic assembly is meant to be a time of coming together
peacefully.
People will have differences, but tbe "hard hats" will
be sitting near the "long hairs" before the same God. There Is a
darkness now that prevents an Ideal meeting of minds. Still we can
trust and believe that this meeting can andwill come. Not by arguing
in a church
But by a sane and calm presentation of tbe various
Insights. And by the healing power of God. Jesus knew that divisions
would plague us. That's why His "First Mass” prayer was "that
they all may be one."
Now that’s the real Christian position.

�Be a Big Brother To a Fatherless Boy
Somewhere in your neighbor­
hood there is a boy—who needs
a man.
You have not met
him yet. This boy is father­
less; he is without adult male
companionship; he needs a man
he can* call his own. He needs
a man who can help him through
his growing years. This boy
needs a man like you.
Big Brothers of Lakewood
is an organization with its own
Board of Directors and is af­
filiated with the Lakewood
Community
CounciL
They
want to match fatherless boys
with volunteer men (BigBroth­
ers). The Big Brothers work
with the Little Brothers on an
individual and personal basis.

Big Brother work for the
man is a deeply satisfying ex­
perience and offers an oppor­
tunity for direct personal ser­
vice without legal or financial
responsibility. The BigBroth­
er usually combines his meet­
ings with his boy along with
other social and recreational
activities.
The boy is referred to us
from many sources—the home,
school, a friend, or other so­
cial agencies.
Any person
in the community may refer
the boy for potential service.
The Big Brother comes to
us as a well adjusted man
and of good character—a man
who is willing to invest his

time and himself in a boy.
He would be at least 21 and
could be employed anyplace.
He may, in fact, be you.
The work of our Big Broth­
er Is supervised by a profes­
sional staff trained in handl- '
ing the problems of youth. They
will assist In assigning you to—z

an appropriate Little Brother
and help you develop a con­
structive friendship with him.
You’ll find this planned and
constructive friendship to be
the most worthwhile and grati­
fying venture you have ever
undertaken. The week-to-week
satisfactions are as great for

But be omitted telling •
how be caters to people, often
taking time to discuss minor

aattonal Issues. Which may be
aao of the reasons for Ms

“I couldn't find a community

said “I’ve bean tarty. We’ve

had no robberies. Area or other

"We plan to continue to study

�Few Welfare ’Cheats’ in Barry County
Welfare “cheats" In Barry
County represent less than one
percent of about 1,500 cases,
Ron Decker, a member of the
Department of Social Services,
told-Hastings Rotarians Mon­
day, Aug. 23, at their regular
noon luncheon at the Hotel Hast­
ings.
Decker, who handles pro­
tective services for the de­
partment, such as complaints
concerning neglected children,
said there Is cheating and fraud
among local welfare recipients,
but that it Is “minimal."
Two cases of alleged welfare
fraud were filed Aug. 24 with
the Barry
Prosecuting At­
torney.
He explained
that
when
complaints about cheats come
in, they are Investigated and
where evidence is found, it is
referred to the prosecuting at­
torney.
Decker was part of a panel
of soclal.workers who presented
highlights of the department's
activities and procedures, with
Mrs. Beatrice Fisher, tbe dir­
ector,
as moderator of tbe
program.
•
The matter of welfare chlselers developed out of a quest­
ion from tbe floor, and It was
suggested that persons with
knowledge of fraud call tbe
Social Services department, and
report It--and give their names.
“Stand up and be counted,"
a worker said.
Mrs. Fisher told bow two
mothers receiving Aid to De­
pendent Children hadbeen hired
In her office.
Despite 10th

grade education,
they have
learned tbe office techniques
and procedures and one had
asked her ADC case be closed.
“Education Is a big factor*'
in why some persons require
public assistance, Mrs. Fisher
said.
Mrs. Fisher launched the dis­
cussion explaining that “Social
work is the art of he Ip Ing people
out of trouble."
She
emphasized
that all
standards, rules and proced­
ures are set up by the State
and Federal agencies, and that
the Barry workers follow those
rules.
She added that social
workers may not discriminate
against any client, and cannot
make exceptions and give a per­
son assistancethatothercllents
could not get.
There are 485 cases of Aid
to Dependent Children In the
county. Martha Terpstra, who
"works with that program, de­
scribed a hypothetical case of
a mother with three children..
The maximum ADC rent pay­
ment would be $136 a month,
and other benefits would add
$205 for a total of $34L If the
mother’s gross earnings were
$200,
incentive
procedures

would give her a maximum ad­
ditional Income of $278 a month
or $139 ADC semi-weekly. In
addition, the mother could buy
$53 In food stamps for $30 each
Child support paid by hus­
bands and fathers is deducted
from tbe ADC payment. There
are 127 unemployed fathers in
homes receiving ADC.
The

fathers must be actively seeking
work to have the family eligible
for aid.
The Social Services depart­
ment also has five work pro­
jects, where men and women
must work If they can, receiv­
ing $1.60 an hour to work off
what they receive--Plus they
can earn another $20.
Mrs. Fisher said her depart­
ment is also concerned with
family planning.
Mrs. Susan Breyer said that
social workers are “under the
gun constantly'* to explain to
taxpayers about their policies
and programs.
A Housing Authority for Bar­
ry County was suggested as
being needed vitally.
The Social Services unit has
had a “third party payee" pro­
gram for two years, and hasn't

had one volunteer willing to
accept the responsibility. Tbe
program Involves a third party
willing to accept a mother's
ACC check, and to help her
spend it wisely. Under the ADC
program, social workers can­
not insist on how the ADC money
is actually spent.
Barry County's Volunteer

Services andTHlcemeat Bureau
Is doing a great job, a panelist
said.
Social Services helped
inaugurate tbe program.
Time ran out on the program,
and Mrs. Fisher volunteered
that the panelists would ap­
preciate an invitation to return
to Rotary to provide additional
Information.

the hop ing tank of Hastings’ secondary treatment plant which is sched­

Rain Brings Smiles To Barry Farmers
"This should do it,” Arthur
Steeby, 'director of the MSU
Extension Service
in Barry
County, said following the rains
Thursday and Friday
which
spread more than eight-tenths
of an inch of wonderful H2O
over the Barry County Coun­
tryside.
T irector Steeby said the rains
could have come Just at the
right time to “make the corn
crop.
Up to last week, Has­
tings had only .28 of an inch
of rainfall.
T rought,
instead of corn

blight, was emerging as the
major factor limiting 1971 Mich­
igan corn yields Fry weather
was so widespread throughout
the Lower Peninsula that re­
ports were coming in of total
crop loss in Isolated fields
According to scientists at tbe
MSU Corn Blight Information
Center, the moisture short­
age was causing damage to
an estimated 75 percent of the
state’s corn crop. In the hard-,
est hit areas, an increased num­
ber of farmers were chopping
corn for livestock feed in an

effort to prevent total loss.
As a result of the dry wea­
ther, leaf blight infection lev­
els did not increase during
the week of Aug. 16-22.
Cool weather set in here,
too.- Tuesday personnel at the
Hastings waste treatment plant
recorded a high of 78 and a
low of 46.

Bob Gorham, 16, 931 W. Wal­
nut, Hastings, won tbe reserve
championship in equitation at
the 1971 State 4H Horse Show
held last week at Michigan State
University.

Centenial Farm
A farm owned by Karl E.
and Cecile C. Palmatier of
14494 S. Lockshore Rd., Hic­
kory Corners, has been design­
ated as a Centennial Farm by
the Michigan Historical Com­
mission.
The farm, located in Prairie­
ville Township, has been in the
possessioh of the family since
1870.
It was originally pur­
chased Aug. 17, 1870, by Byron
R. and Caroline N. Fenner,
grandparents of Cecile C. Pal­
matier, from Perry and Mar­
garet Fisher.
Secretary of State Richard
H. Austin, said the Centennial
Farm program In Michigan was
Inaugurated In 1948. Since that
time, certificates and metal
markers have been awarded
to some 3,000 Michigan farms.
Explains Austin, "a Centen­
nial Farm Is one which has
been in the continuous posse­
sion of the same family for
100 years or more.”
For this purpose, the HUtorlcal Commission considers
a farm to be 10 or more acres
having estimated sales of more
than 350 yearly, or less than
10 acres but having estimated
sales of $250 a year.
Anyone who owns a farm
wbo wishes to apply for Cen­
tennial Farm certificate Is ask­
ed to write for an application

sion, Michigan Department of

$20,000 Home Can Lead Up to $130,000 Inoestmeirt
Over a period of 30 years,
tbe American family who buys
a $20,000 bouse can expect to
Invest a total of approximately
$130,000, according to Carlton
Edwards, Michigan Stale Uni­
versity extension housing spe­
cialist
And this figure rep­
resents 160 percent of the cost
10 years ago.
Most U. S. families are either
over-housed or undar-housed,
he says, because of soaring
costs and lower production of
one-family houses. Many peo­
ple have more living space than
they really need; others can’t
fin'4 any accommodations to live
in.
The average U. S. family
moves about once in five years,
another factor in the critical
housing shortage.
This flg-

ure, plus the t million law
family formations each year.
Indicates nearly one-fourth at
our population seeking housing
fodllti.. annually, Edwards

points out.
Education swmt to be th.
only answer to this dilemma,
he believes. At present, only
'hose who are actively awklng
a new home are really aware
of the crisis. Yet these peo­
ple (usually young couples) are

being advised by reahnra ami
beaters who aren't redoes Na
for informing them at all the
Mddea costs aad proMema at
boasing; aad by their pareeds
who still follow ths old atMe
of living la the same hov.
from marriage to old age.

HWe must edaeals.vorysotrnem of ths popajatloa ta or­
der to get rid of this “pool­
ing of Ignorance,’ " Mr. Ed­

Lakewood Holds
Football Camp
The Lakewood High School
parking lot was invaded Sun­
day evening, Aug. 22, with over
100 active boys ready for foot­
ball camp.
They and their
chaperones loaded the school
bus and trucks, eager to get
started on their camping trip.
They did not have far to
travel—just to Camp STP near
Saranac—but the chaperones
were undoubtedly glad of this.
After arriving at camp they
were to set up tents and get
settled for three days of train­
ing. This should help the Lake­
wood teams, junior high through
high school, look good for the
coming season.

Michigan State senior place­
kicking specialist Borys Shlapak of Park Ridge, HL, set
an all-time Spartan mark with
his 54-yard field anal in the
1970 game with Northwestern.

Poet's Corner
TO MY ADOPTED PARENTS
by
Majorle Peters
Because you are so wonderful.
Because you are so great,
I sit me down to write this card,
Ant1 here I contemplate:
I think how fortunate I was
So many years ago
That angels brought and gave me to
Folks who would love me so.
And when I was a little girl
Beneath the Christmas tree
I used to think with bead awhlrl,
"These gifts! They must LOVE me!’’
But then In time we all do change
And grow as thoughts will do.
And now. Eears, as I write this so'
I think how I love you.

ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTEENTH YEAR

Drug Problem Needs United
Community Attack
Related Story Page 2
A united community effort,
involving everyone must be gen­
erated to combat the drug pro­
blem in the Hastings area, ac­
cording to reports made Tues­
day, Aug. 31, at the Hastings

Area Board of Education by the
Drug Program Communications
Committee.
Supt. of Schools Richard J.
Guenther declared that, if al­
cohol is included, "we have a
drug problem?‘
Robert W. Sherwood, presid­
ent of the National Bank, gave
the Communications’ Commit­
tee report to the school board.
Sherwood said that of 874
parents in this area who answ­
ered the questions of the drug
committee, 75 percent of 626
were interested in a course
on drugs. And 321 didn't care
which night it was held.
Of the parents questions, 80
percent had read the news let­
ter on drugs, and 30 percent
kept it.
There were many opinions
on the value of the news let­
ter, most of them good. Some
said it was not strong enough, .
and that it should been repeated
at the beginning of the school
year. Twenty percent said it
was “Double talk." They want
facts and figures on the problem
in Hastings.
*
Parents said a drug course

should provide them general
information through good teach­
ing and rap sessions.
Ex­
amples of drugs—what they
look, smell or taste like—were
wanted. Parents want to know
the physical and mental effects
of drugs, and how to recognize
persons who use them and sim­
ilar information.
They want to know where
to go in an emergency, and
suggested a special room at
school or the hospital.
A big problem is learning
how to communicate with child­
ren, and how to keep them busy.
Parents said Tyden Park, shows
and school dances could provide
possible problems.
They want to hear from for­
mer addicts, physicians and to
see good instructional films.
The committee suggests per­
sonal reports from ProjectRe­
Hab from Grand Rapids, and a
talk by Dr. Michael Makedon­
sky of the Ramona Medical
Center. Charles Grim, an ex­
alcoholic and addict, is avail­
able as a speaker by contact­
ing Jan Holmes, counselor at
South Haven High School.
Norm Richardson gave aprogress report on the drug edu­
cation program among local
4th, 5th and 6th graders, and
said the objective is to in­
form the chlldren_about drugs,
before the problem develops.

FREEPORT WINNER—Jimmy Durkee, son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred
Durkee of Freeport, took honors in the bike parade on the first
afternoon of Freeport's annual homecoming celebration.
Jimmy
made a big hit with the crowd, peddling his vehicle as fast as his
two year-old legs would go.
Tom Owen and Carl Eggleston also
received cash awards for their bikes.—Banner photo.

Viking President Busy Man
The hands of a clock move
quickly for the president of a
corporation with local, nation­
al and International interests.
Business
conferences
with
prospective clients, trips a­
broad to Inspect subsidiary
companies and close surveil­
lance of market trends help
fill a busy schedule.
“Unfortunately most of my
knowledge is located on things
outside of town,” Richard T.
Groos, president of the Vik­
ing Corporation, said.
“For

me it s more important to know
what is going on in Vancouver
than in Hastings. This is the
only way to stay ahead of what
the market is doing, of what
the customer thinks."
However, as a current mem- •
ber and treasurer of the Has­
tings Board of Education, a .
member of the board of direc­
tors of the National Bank and
a long time supporter of the
Community Fund, it seems that
Groos has also kept a finger
on the pulse of Hastings.

"I’ve tried to use whatever
talents I have to help these
organizations."
he said.
"Sometimes a businessman’s
approach helps.;’

(

Groos was born in Indiana
but was raised as the only
child of Mr. and Mrs. Richard
A. Groos in Hastings. He grad­
uated as salutatorian at Has­
tings High School in 1948 and
be received several scholas­
tic honors during his college
days
at Cornell University,
where he earned a bachelor’s
degree in mechanical engineer­
ing.
Groos held several positions
in the Viking Corporation be­
fore be was elected president
in 1962. A year later be was
named president of the National
Bank, and assumed the post
of vice-chairman of the board
of directors of the bank in
1966.
The 42 year old business­
man has previously been board
chairman of the United Fund
Drive, treasurer of the Com­
munity Fund and a member
of the board of directors of
Pennock Hospital.

Groos, who heads 175 em­
ployees at the Viking Corpor­
ation, was named "Boss of
the Year" in 1969 by the Has­
tings Jaycees.
Speaking of employees, Groos
had no comment about Presid­
ent
Nixon’s
wage
freczo
although he said the employees
weren’t too happy about It be­
cause they, as members of the
United Steel Workers Union,
were expecting a wage increase
on August 28.

Many
new customers and
foreign visitors
frequently
come to Hastings to visit the
Viking Corporation, a highly
automated plant manufacturing
sprinkler equipment.
Groos
says that often they’re a bit
horrified at first with the town,
usually expecting a city like
Chicago, but they become in­
trigued with Hastings and end
up liking it.
Groos says he is too busy
to have time for hobbles, but

with five children he spends
a lot of. Jim-’ repairing things
in his honn.
Gyn Lake is a
favorite retreat and Groos en­
joys sailing, skiing and fixing
boats.

Ratio Goals
Supt. of Schools Richard J.
Guenther, Ln his report cover­
ing the last school year, point­
ed out that the pupil-teacher
ratio in all academic areas
from Kindergarten through the
12 th grade has been lowered
to a 25-1 ratio, the goal of
the improved curriculum sche­
dule.
He said the Parent-Teacher
conferences for the elementary
grades had been an unbeliev­
able 95 percent!
Supt. Guenther said the open­
ing of the new high school al­
lowed an expanded curriculum
which Included such courses
as Creative Writing, Black­
man
in
U.S., Renaissance,
Michigan History, Advanced
Chemistry, Geology, Astro­

He added that a formal "Ac­
countability Study" is being
completed and the plan is to
establish an effective system
of "evaluating all our instruc­
tional activities. The plan is
to account for the ‘output* of
our programs."
Grand Rapids computers have
been used for scheduling and
grade reporting.
The new Student Store sells
basic school supplies, and "has
been an excellent addition to
our high school business de­

French React To Free Floating
*

French reaction to the “free-floating" dollar was interesting
and typically French--that is, unpredictable.
When Charles
TeGaulle was at the height of power and prestige, he did every­
thing possible to undercut the dollar with the ultimate purpose
of replacing it with the franc as the standard currency in Inter­
national trade.
He was not successful at the time and his forced removal of
the NATO headquarters from Paris cut France loose from
millions of dollars worth of easy dollar revenue. This, com­
bined with American resentment at such hostile action by a
former ally who had depended on U.SL aid in the post World
War II era, caused a sharp drop in the American tourist trade
which is ablg factor in the overall French economy.
Thus

the

DeGaulle policies hurt French worse than it hurt

the United States.
This was one of the few bad errors in judg­
ment on the part of an outstanding leader who must be ranked
alongside other great statesmen of history.
The General was
a man of courage and honesty who (aside from myopia concern­
ing a return of Franch to a position of its past power and glory
in Europe and resentment over the economic progress of the
United States) was more often right than wrong. The leaders
of the Western World should have taken his ideas and pronounce­
ments much more seriously than they actually did.
Now that the dollar has been allowed to “float free" under
the new Nixon Economic Policy, French financial leaders are
much concerned about maintaining the old relationship between
the franc and the dollar so far as trade is concerned. What
they propose Is really a double standard—the old par for com­
merce with the United States and a true “free floating” dollar
to U3e in domestic areas such as the tourist trade.
In other words, they plan to play both ends against the middle.
American goods will continue to be expensive in export trade
with France and French products comparatively cheap in the
U. S. market.
Then with the domestic franc-dollar relation­
ship, those in the French tourist trade, including banks and
offices dealing in currency exchange, will be able to sock Amer­
ican visitors through an artificially-controlled exchange rate­
favoring France, of course.

In our opinion, this policy is as short sighted and unrealistic
as was TeGaulle’s when he first attempted to beat down the
dollar.
The net result could very well be less imports from
France and fewer Americans touring there.
Americans may not be the most sophisticated tourists In
the world but they know instinctively when they are being “skinned”
—and the word quickly gets around.

Tour US
Speaking of tourism, what is wrong with the United States?
We have places of Interest tore comparable to anything you
will see abroad.
In fact, unless one has some special interest
in or knowledge of a particular foreign nation, or some definite
objective in going there, nothing can be less rewarding than a
European tour.

Detroit News On Pentagon Papers
In June, the Supreme Court blocked the government’s effort
to suppress the printing by the New York Times and the Wash­
ington Post of a secret Pentagon study of U.S. Involvement in
the Vietnam War. Several other U.S, newspapers later followed
along by publishing extracts from these papers stolen from
government files.
Though this particular legal battle was re­
solved in favor of the media in a split decision, hastily made,

the main issues involved are still cause for serious reflection
and concern.
In our opinion, the best balanced and most res­
ponsible commentary on this subject was written by Martin S.
Hayden, editor of the Detroit News, and appeared three days
before the Supreme Court rendered its decision. Mr. Hayden’s
editorial is reprinted, herewith:
We do not believe that the New York Times and the other
Involved newspapers acted responsibly and In the national interest
when, without trying to use established procedures for declassi­
fication of secret papers, they chose to publish an edited ver­
sion of what 'it now appears was an incomplete accounUef U.S.
involvement in the Vietnam war. Despite our devotion to, and
dependence upon, the rights guaranteed under the First Amend­
ment, we do not accept the premise that the doctrine of a free .
press is an unrestricted license to print any secret document,
the publication of which, in an individual editor's opinion, would
be in the national Interest.
Our brief includes these points:
First, carried to its logical conclusion, the Times theory would
permit publication of any government secret—the design of a
Polaris missile, contingency war plans, intelligence reports on
enemy war preparations—provided only that the editor believed
that such publication would be In the national interest. Such a
conclusion, we fell, would result in a disastrous collision be­
tween press freedom and the manifest democratic need for
orderly government.
Granted, the bureaucratic tendency to cover mistakes with a
“top secret” stamp is a problem. It always has been, and news­
papers have an obligation to fight it. Bit the solution does not
lie in a grant to an individual—&amp; he editor, scientist or public
official—of power to substitute his personal definition of national
Interest as a basis for declassification.
To argue otherwise

is

betrayal of Anglo-American atomic secrets was justified by
his sincere’ conviction that a better world WbuH result from
their delivery by him to the Soviet Union.
Newspapers which have published the Vietnam war papers
protest that the Justice Department sought to establish a pre­
cedent of prior restraint upon newspaper publication.
Is this
true?
Forgetting ..national defense. Is it not accepted that both
state and federal judges use “prior restraint” to protect their
own secrets?
Would any of the judges to whom the Times ap­
pealed have listened for a minute to a contention that a news­
paper which acquired a transcript of a grand jury investigation
of organized crime had a right to publish it on the ground that
Mafia operations constitute a national problem concerning which
the public has a “right to know”? We and the Times know that
the offending editor would be chastised for contempt of longrecognized prepublication restraints.
But, it is contended, publication did not harm national se-’
curity.
Is this true?
Secretary of State William Rogers has
noted serious diplomatic problems: What government is going
to freely exchange views with us if it suspects the correspond­
ence will be published? And even if the newspapers publishing
the Pentagon documents did not so intend, prospects are that
the already obdurate Hanoi negotiators may feel that revelation
of alleged U.SL “immorality” will so stir American protest as
to force President Nijcon to surrender now. Certainly if a nego­
tiated peace is in our interest, none of the recent events have
helped our bargainers get one.
In summary, we do not want freedom of press/ so important
to our existence, stretched to justify this type of Irresponsi­
bility.
We do not defend the proposition that any person with
access to classified material has a right to leak it for publica­
tion in the name of national interest.

—Voice of the People—
War Resisters, Not Cowards
To I’ht Editor:
It is becoming increasingly
evident that more and more
young men are resisting the
raft and the military- indus­
trial complex.
Many people,
especially the older who have
fought in wars, are shocked
by their behavior. There ex­
ists only one answer In their
minds.
Those who are re­
sisting the government s war
policies are cowards.
This is wrong in almost all
cases. It takes a special kind
of courage to stand out against
the rest and say it is wrong.
Although it has always been
pointed out that a person is
“brave when he kills in the
name of his country, we should
remember that is also a brave
person who goes to jail for
what he believes in. A per­
son who sees Viet Nam as a
tragic injustice should not be
aske'1 to be a coward by not
standing up for what he be­
lieves in.
A coward is someone who
’oesn t stand up for what he
believes in. If a person does
stan'1 up for his beliefs he
should not be called a coward
simply because someone else
'‘oes not agree with his be­
liefs
One hypocrisy of our pres­
ent government is that it asksonly a person who disagrees
with governmental war policies
to prove himself sincere. What
about those who do not oppose
governmental
war policies?
Should not they be asked to
prove themselves sincere? The
burden of proof should not rest
with just one side. Some may
find it easy to go along with
governmental war policies and
not stand up for what they be­
lieve in.
It would be better
not to ask anyone to prove his
beliefs, but rather offer alter­
natives to combat military rffcrvlce Help keep the draft dead.

Local Lawyer Wins
$600,000 Decision
The Michigan Court of Ap­
peals has affirmed a Kent
County Circuit Court decision
in favor of the distribution of
about $600,000 (before taxes)
from the eslite of Ethel G.
Crawford which had been tn a
trust fund in the Old Kent Bank
of Grand Rapids.
Hastings Atty. Richard M.
Shuster represented the one
Barry County beneficiary, and
made the court presentation
for all the plaintiffs.
The Old Kent Bank contested
the action.
Three charities named in the
will, Easter Seal Society for
Crippled Children &amp; Adults of

each receive
about $75,000. There was also
a beneficiary from Ann Arbor.

To the Editor:
Probably I will never know
why you destroyed part of my
house.
When I discovered what you
had '’one, I felt hurt and re­
sentful. Now I feel sorry for
you.
Only insecure, unhappy
children would do what you
did—children who are in great
need of something. I believe
that “something” is parental
guidance and understanding.
Whatever
caused
your
gnr'ge, do you feel better now
that you’ve “gotteneven”? Did
making me unhappy make you
unhappy?
I don’t think so.
I believe this is something that
all vandals—children and ad­

ways hurts the destroyers; it
hurts their minds and hearts,
their self-respect, their cha­

The damage you did to my

the damage you did to your­

�Folk Life Festival Sept. 18 19
• A good way to get the feeling
of the past, is to plan a visit to
Charlton Park and the Folk
Life Festival, Sept. 18-19.
Highlighting the arts, music
and homecrafts, visitors can
grasp in three-dimension, the
broad cultural, economic, and
social heritage of the agricul­
tural community.
Innovations in manufacturing,
transportation, and commun­
ication have made nearly obso­
lete the necessity for articles
once produced in the home or
the small shops.
Charlton
Park
Director
Frank Walsh says it's ironic
that these craftsmen who once
served the simpler life of the
19th century, were instrumental
in forging a future world that
would have no place for them.
Walsh says the Folk Life Fes­
tival will attempt to recreate

the days of the pioneers when
the making of bread,- butter,
soap, cider, and sausage was
the order of the day. There
will also be candle dipping,
spinning and weaving, needle­
work, glass blowing, woodcarv­
ing, china painting, sculpturing
and pottery throwing. The vil­
lage "Smlthie" will demon­
strate the blacksmith's trade,
as will the village carpenter,
cobbler, tinsmith, and gun­
smith.
Music has always played a
very important role in the
American life, and the Folk
. Life Festival will feature a
blue-grass band, folk singing,
a bavarian band, anti dulcim­
ers.
An inter-denominational
church service is planned for
Sunday morning, Sept. 19 at the
Park.
A glance into the past wouldn't
be complete without paying a
visit to the local ''still." Our
"still" will be located in the
woods, and we invite all those
who care for a sniff of that

Folk Life Festival demon­
strations begin at 10 a.m. each
day, and working artists and
craftsman who would like to
participate
should
contact
Charlton Park, R*l, Hastings
for more information.
Charlton Park Village i Mu­
seum is located north of M-79
between Hastings and Nash­
ville.

Adult High School
Classes Set
Steve Storey, Lakewood Com­
munity
Education
Director
states that two adult high school
credit classes will be offered
during the day this year. Class­
es have been tentatively set
up to be held at the Central
Methodist
Church from 1-4
p.m., once a week.
English
will be taught on Monday after­
noon and Parent Effectiveness
and Child Management on Tues­
day afternoon. These classes,
starting next week, 'are de­
signed for adults who cannot
make the night classes. Adults
interested should call 374-8868

,

or 374-8510.

Burner

Class

The Banner Class of the First
United
Methodist Church is
meeting Tuesday, Sept. 7, at
the Church, 5:30 for the usual
carry-in dinner.

ALWAYS TRUST

Entertains Benefit Siow
JUST A BIG LAUGH-George Scott and Governor, from the JustaWee
Rand near Battle Creek, provided a lot of comedy and laughs at the

Handicapped Benefit Show held at Williams Arena Sunday. Scott Is
a master at clowning, and Governor does more than one could
rightly expect an animal like that to do. But then, she even posed
like this for The Banner’s cameraman.

Funds For Child Assistance
The Hastings Area schools
have trust and agency funds,
earmarked for various activi­
ties and purposes, such as the
Dramatic Club, Christian Ath­
letes, Rotary Interact Club,
operetta,
class
funds and

others.

W.C. Fields used to
say, “I always carry
an abundant supply of
spirits in case I
happen to encounter a
snake, of which I al­
so carry an abundant
supply."
Our customers some­
times tell us that
when they encounter
trials and tribula­
tions, they come buy
themselves a pair of
shoes. They probably
seek out some trials
and tribulations they
didn‘t even know they
had, because ladies
love to buy shoes.
Beautiful new shoes
just sfeem to give
them a lift. ' It
gives us a lift too
just to see our cus­
tomers happy. So get
yourself an abundant
supply of spirits by
coming in and trying
on the new spirit­
boosters we now have
in stock.

Included
is a children's
emergency fund, which totaled
$423.40 as of the Aug. 31st
Board of Education meeting.

Supt. of Schools Richard J.
Guenther explained that the
money comes from individuals
and groups to be used when the
administration believes a child
requires assistance.
Supt. Guenther said there are
other such monies available in
other organizations, and now a
central clearing house has been
agreed on. When a child needs
emergency
assistance,
re­
quests are funneled through the
Bureau of Social Services, Supt.

Guenther explained.

Grace Wesleyan Church, 1302 S. Hanover St., formerly the
Pilgrim Holiness Church, has a history that dates back many
years to what was known as the Hastings City Mission, conducted
by Rev. Edward Boone In a store building on North Michigan
Avenue now occupied by a tavern. There the opening service
was held on October 8, 1922, nearly a half century ago.
In the fall of 1928, Rev. Boone left the Hastings work to be­
come pastor of the Pilgrim Holiness Tabernacle In Grand Ra­
pids
Rev. Calbert Holstein succeeded him as pastor &lt;rf the
Hastings congregation and remained here only a year when be
accepted a pastorate in Columbus, Ohio and Rev. Nathan Hawks,
now pastor of the Naxarene Church at Ionia, was selected to take
over the leadership of the Hastings Mission.
It was during
Rev. Hawk s first year here that the group voted to affiliate with
the Pilgrim Holiness Church.
Of the group that became charter members, only two are
still living, Mrs. Georgia Gregory and Mrs. Eunice Kellar
both of whom still reside in Hastings.
'
Wishing to have a building of their own In which to worship
the little group purchased from the Hastings Lions Club a
in back of tike City Hall and moved Into IL The yard was grown
up with weeds and trees and had anything but an attractive ap­
pearance. The rooms In the house were small and the partitions
made It difficult to get the congregation together for a service.
Rev Thomas Hoos accepted the call to pastor the new church
arv* soon after his arrival on the charge a remodeling program
was started.
One of the ladles recalls that a prominent car­
penter • was consulted and he stronly advised against removing
the partitions as the building was not strong enough to steal
and would surely collapse without their support However, the
partitions were removed and the building stood there as strong
and firm as when it was first built until the summer of 1969 when
It was lorn down to provide additional parking space for the new
Hastings National Bank then under construction.
Money was very scarce in the tittle oo^regaUoo awl one
of the ladies tells of bringing fuel from her home on Sunday
morning so they could warm the building enough fo have servlces tor the day.
Rev. Hoos Inaugurated what be called "a
mile of pennies, ' the members of the Sunday School soliciting
money enough to buy bricks for veneering the building. One
woman and her daughter, who canvassed West Green Street,
said most of the contributions were ten cents, a few gave a
charter, and the largest gift was fifty cents, given by a pro­
minent Hastings businessman.
A lift of the officers chosen to carry on the work of the new
church for the first year follows:
Secretary, Nancy Dlmood;
Treasurer, Henry Gregory; S. &amp; S«oL, Eunice Kellar; Elders,
Elmer Gregory, Olive Jones, Mae Howe; Deacons, Nellie Charl­
ton, Core Bolton, Beulah Leonard; Trustees, Henry Gregory.
Elmer Gregory, Core Bolton.
*
In 1956 a house and two acre tract of land on South Hanover
was purchased from Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Dickerson as the
site for a new church.
In August I960, the ground was broken
for the new structure, a 44 by 90 feet brick veneer building
with full basement containing eleven Sunday School rooms, a
large assembly room, furnace room, storage room and two
rest fooms, was erected.
The concrete and brick work was
''one by Gareth Conklin, a member of the church, and Cameron
McIntyre of Hastings bad the contract for the carpenter work.
A main auditorium with a seating capacity of three hundred,
a nursery, pastor a study, library room and a spacious entry
comprise the main floor, and a balcony provides seating for
an additional sixty people.
The first service was held In the new church on Sunday morn­
ing. March 18, 1962 and the building .was dedicated on Sunday
afternoon, June 3, 1962 with Rev. A. C. Doehring of Owosso,
District Superintendent, in charge.
Rev. Vernon L Dnggoo followed Mrs. Manker as pastor and
was the first to live in the house just south of the church which
bad been remodeled for a parsonage. During his pastorate, be­
sides the extensive work done on the parsonage, a steeple was
put on the church and the large stone sign erected In front of the
church.
He served the church from 1962 to 1965 and was suc­
ceeded by Rev. Howard W. Rogers, under whose ministry the out­
standing month-long revival took place.

Ber LlcMy mOc-d u tutor la Settembar, BTO aad Rar.
C. L Walker, who had recently resigned a pastorage at ClearFla., accepted a call from the Hastings Church awt with
his wife and son moved Into the parsonage in October.
The merger of the two denominations, Wesleyan Methodist
and Pilgrim Holiness, was completed In June 1968 and the fol­
lowing September the Wesleyan Church on South Hanover voted
to take as its official name Grace Wesleyan Church.

�THINK IT OVER
■Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For
what Is your life?
it is even a vapour; that appeareth for a
little time, and then vanisheth away." James 4:14.
What *• Ufa?
This Is a question that is Important to all
There are two schools of thought relative to the origin. One
Is that It is a spontaneous feneration. The other, ttat tt is from
a pre-existing Uh.
God Is that life. ’ Think It Over ’’ What
Is life?
Is it an Idle dream, a mere playground, or Is it entangled
with selfishness, conceit, Jealousy, hypocrisy?
Maybe It is
Jbe '•ally problems, and it Is hard to choose the right way from
the wrong way. "Think It over. ’ Whal is life? Ufa &lt;« « jrmrney from the cradle to the grave. Beyonl the grave there are
two 'festlnies according to the pathway we have followed in
the journey.
"Enter yeTn at the strait gate; for wide is the gate, and broad
is the way, that leadeth to destruction, any many there be which
go In thereat:
"Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which
lea'feth unto life, and few there be that find it." Matthew 7:1^ h.
What is life? It is the result of our choosing, it is the set­
ting in motion of influences that are right and wrong, that will
never die.
It is a success or failure, the last and only chance
to make preparation, the dressing room for eternity. "Think
it ever ’
Let God, the Bible and the Church help Ln solving
the problems of life.

YOUTH FOR CHRIST SPEAKER - Nicky Crux, whose story, “The

Cross an'* the Switchblade , by David Wilderson became a religious
best seller, was at
the Youth for Christ sessions Saturday and,
Sun ay, Sept 4-5, at the Kellogg Auditorium in Battle Creek. Nicky
Crus was a hardened gang barter of the notorious Mau Mau's, considered
to be the most -‘angerous large gang in New York City. The real story

that Nicky has to tell, however, is the story of his personal encounter
with God
This is remarkably told In his newly-published book,

�Qualify Furniture To Enlarge
Quality Furniture Store in
downtown Hastings announced
the acquisition of the threestory building of the present
store.
Store officials said the re­
cently purchased building will
be combined with their present
showrooms for additional fur­
niture display and sales area.
This gives the local store,
which is the headquarters of
their chain, a total of nearly
17,000 plus additional local offpremises storage space.
— Workmen have already start­
ed to combine the two build­
ings through a system of arch­
ways on each of the three floors.
The entire space will be used
for furniture except the front
window area which will be util­

Good Drivers
Getting Refunds
Good driving will pump $30,­
919 into the local economy be­
ginning Sept. 1, when 2,664 mo­
torists In Barry County insur­
ing cars through the Exchange
at Automobile Club of Michi­
gan start receiving premium
refunds.
Auto Club Barry County rep­
resentative Edwin J.Meisenbach states that local motorists
insured through the Exchange
are getting money back on the
past premium year, beginning
with all policies expiring af­

ized for a complete line of
carpet roll ends, remnants and
factory close-out floor cover­
ings. This space had formerly
been used by the Martlnlzlng
Cleaners, which left town a
few days ago.
Their newly enlarged show­
room area will enable the store
to expand lines and thus offer
a more complete selection of
name-brand home furnishings,
carpeting and major appliances.
It is expected that they will
be fully opened in their ex­
panded area within the next
30 days.
In the meantime,
they are engaged in the mov­
ing from their west-side ware­
house" which they have used for
nearly 30 years. •
Rather than move, and at­
tempt to re-store their ware­
house stock in the newly a­
vailable showroom space, they
have elected to sell-out a ma­
jor portion of the existing ware­
house stock at substantially re­
duced prices during the next
two weeks.

ter Aug. 31.
Auto Club points out that
Michigan motorists were the
safest in the nation last year,
driving a record-high number
of miles and having fewer deaths
per hundred million vehicle
miles driven than any other
comparable state. During 1970,Michigan motorists reduced
'’eaths 13 percent, cut injuries
8 percent and accidents 5 per­
cent as compared with 1969.
Meisenbach states
that a
soon-to-be-released
"Bring
Em Back Alive!’* study by
Auto Club will point out the
factors which helped Michigan
record its safest year ever
on highways, along with rec­
ommendations for continuing
the good driving record.

Folk Life Festival
at Charlton Park

First Farmers Market

Craig’s Tax Spread Illegal,
State Authority Declares
Increases in equallud tax
valuations "must be uniformly
applied against allpropertles,"
A. S. Westol, director at the
Local Government Audit Divi­
sion of the Michigan DepL of
Treasury, wrote County Com­
missioner Edward McPharlln.

Commissioner McPhar­
lln bad questioned the legality
of Hastings' Assessor Floyd
Craig spreading the Increase
ordered on only Hastings' re­
sidential property.
The State Tax Commission
slapped a $5.5 million addi­
tional assessment onto Barry
County, and Hastings’ share
or $1,048,433 was spread by
Craig only on residential pro­
perty, and not on commercial
and Industrial property.

Assessor
Craig said he
spread it only on residential
as valuations placed on com­
mercial properties were al­
ready “too high.”
Director Westol wrote Com­
missioner McPharlln that he
would be happy to appear before
the Barry County Taxpayers
Association at the meeting
scheduled for 8 p.m. Tuesday,
Sept 21, at the Union Hall on
Woodland Avenue.
Westol said however, in fair­
ness, he speaks with authority
only on accounting, auditing
and financial matters. He add­
ed that Robert Purnell, director
of the State Tax Commission,
has agreed to have a represen­
tative appear before the asso­
ciation.

An especially intriguing pro­
gram should be the Folk Life
Festival to be held Saturday
and Sunday,
Sept. 18-19, at
Chariton Park located north,
of M-79 between Hastings and
Nashville.
Charlton
Park
Director
Frank Walsh has arranged for
a variety of events designed
to show visitors how things were
done in the past.
»
There will also be a demon­
stration on-sausage making by
Leonard Riepenhoff, Mlddlevil’e Road, former Hastings
sausage maker who had a cli­
entele from many sections of
Michigan.
.
An added attraction will be
a flintlock rifle firing, along
with a
gunsmith,
cobbler,
blacksmith or farrier.
Highlighting the arts, music
and homecrafts, visitors can
grasp in three dimensions the
broad cultural, economic and
social heritage of the agricul­
tural community, Walsh said.
Director Walsh
said that
craftsmen who once served life
in the 19th century were instru­
mental in forging a future world
that would have no place for

them.
This weekend’s festival will
attempt to recreate the days
of the pioneers and there will
be 30 different demonstrations
of sewing
The Folk Life Festival dem­
onstrations begin at 10 a,m.
Saturday and Sunday, and work­
ing artists and craftsmen who
would like to participate should
contact Charlton Park, R1 Has-

tings, for more information.
There will
be making of
bread, butter, soap, cider.
There will be candle dipping,
spinning and weaving,
glass
blowing, wood carving, china
painting, sculpturing and pot­
tery throwing.
Music, naturally, will have
an important role and the fes­
tival will feature a blue-grass
band, folk singing and a Ba­
varian band, and dulcimers.
An inter-denominational church
service is planned for Sunday
morning at the park.
A glance at the past wouldn’t
be complete without paying a
visit to the local “still.” The
park "Still” will be located
in the woods, and all who care
for a sniff may stop.

Agricultural Extension Agent
James Pelham reported Thurs­

tremendously in a few days,

An Increase in leaf disease

other areas of Michigan, but

Editorial
R.M.C.

Busing Fails To Acheive Equality
In our opinion, forced busing
pupils away from tbeir neigh­
borhood schoo’s Is a harsh and
unsatisfactory method of ach­
ieving the twin goals of inte­
gration and a better standard
of instruction in underprivil­
eged areas Possibly if the ex­
tra money being spentonbusing
were used to upgrade the qual­
ity of education available in
the neighborhood schools in the
inner city areas, more real
progress would have been made.
The thought of pupils being
forced to ride busses miles
across town or even as for as
fifteen or twenty miles away,
simply does not make sense.

Salute to

Gordie Howe
Thirty-four years ago, the
San Francisco
Golden Gate
Bridge was constructed to speed
traffic across the bay and help
relieve the ferry boat conges­
tion
Now, as the last of the
construction bonds have been
paid, the bridge authorities find
it necessary to launch an ad­
vertising campaign (now in the
planning stage) to discourage
use of the bridge by daily com­
muters to relive congestion that
sometimes has trafficlxcked up

for miles and to encourage the
use of—believe it or not—a
fleet of passenger ferries to
be put into operation by aid
of the tfefty surplus the bridge
has amassed over the years.
Maybe
all this should be
c'assed under
the heading:
“Progress 20th Century Style!”
We only saw Gordie Howe in
action
once during his long
career with the Detroit Red
Wings but the memory of his
p’ay is as vivid as the one
and only time we saw the im­
mortal Ty Cobb on the diamond
during the heyday of his care­
er
Even a sports neophyte
such as the writer can recog­
nize super-greatness when be
sees it—and Howe and Cobb
were certainly in this category.
Both were superb athletes, each
outstanding in his own era.
Howe's record is possibly the
more remarkable because he
was a star performer for a
nuarter of a century in just
about the roughest and most
physically demanding spectator
sport in the world. Aside from
natural. ability and constant
practice, one of Howe’s secrets
Is that he was never out of
training
As an indication of
his great co-ordination and
ability, listen to this all you
golf duffers who, year after
year, strive to break 100—
the first time Gordie was ever
on the links, be shot an 85!
Michigan can take pride in the
fact that Gordie Howe selected
Michigan as his home (the New

York Rangers turned him down
as a rookie, because they said
he didn’t have the stuff of which
hockey pros are made!) and so

joined other all-time greats
who have given this state some
outstanding sports history.

it might be well to try, for the
sake of the pupils involved, to
make the best of a highly un­
satisfactory situation. Forced
busing Is likely to be continued
until a more satisfactory sys­
tem is found—and that is defin­
itely not “Just around the cor­
ner.’’

Reflection On Life
It is gratifying for most of
us to have the opportunity to
&gt;ook back and count our bless­
ings.
When I was waiting at
Saginaw General Hospital for
an examination to learn if there
was any injury which was harm­
ful following the overturning of
the Greyhound Bus, I could not

New 'Aspirin’ Law Foolish
We have
heard of some
zaney bureaucratic proposals
in our time, but here isonethat
tops them all.
The Food and Drug Admin­
istration proposes that aspirin
makers be forced to package
the tablets in such a way that
85 per cent of all children
aged three or four would be
unab’e to open the container
(apparently the other 15 per
cent don’t count!

In addition, the proposed rule
specifies that 80 per cent of
the children in the same age
bracket be unable to open the
package even if shown how to
do it However, the container
must be made in such a way

that 90 per cent of all adults
would still be able to open it
lacking further clarification,
the above seems to imply that,
10 per cent of the adults in
our nation have a mental agil­
ity (at least in things mechan­
ical) below that of the smarter

20 per cent in the three-tofour age group.
Well—that
one Isn't too hard to buy!

Ctrtali Pickitis
Certain packages, mostly the
12-tablet tins, would still be
al’owwd on the market PROVITET they were marked for

use in households without young
children.
This brings up a
new problem—that of proof of
identity
Should the one making the
sale be permitted to take the
word of his customer as proof
that he comes from a household
without young children or should
the purchaser be required to
sign a document certified by
the FT A giving sworn testimony
that be does, indeed, live in a
household unimpeded by young
children.

But, for the sake of perfect
protection, even this may not
be enough. Householders with­
out young children of their own
are often visited by friends and
relatives who proudly bring a­
long tbeir own offspring for
display—or,
possibly, for a
visit that may run into days or
weeks
Thus, for really ade­
quate protection of these young
Innocents, the childless house­
holders In possession of 12tab&gt;et aspirin tins should be
required to sign an additional
form swearing under oath that
no children or friends with
children will be admitted into
their homes so long as these
potentially lethal containers are
within the premises.
That should do it!
On the other hand, isn’t this
an unfolr discrimination against
householdeiy with children?

Possibly this is a fine point of

is no justification or excuse
for the violent confrontations

Constitutional
interpretation
that can only be settled by the
Supreme Court, itself.
Actually,
this
12-tabletasplrin tin, restricted to child­
less householders only, would
seem to Inject a package of
new problems that only time
and the wisdom of the courts
can successfully unravel.
In the meantime, watch your
kids closely if there are as­
pirin tablets about!
How will the agency imple­
ment its proposal?- That is a
good question.
Obviously
groups of children would have
to be selected to test which
ones (the tins, that is—) meet

specifications.
But here again, one is faced
with a tricky little problem.
The children in any one age
group are no more “standard”
in regard to intelligence and
aptitude than are adult's. There­
fore, it will be necessary for
someone to devise a meaningful
plan (probably based on I-Q)
to ensure that the children se­
lected for this aspirin contain­
er test do, Indeed, represent
a fair cross-MCtion of young­
sters In the 3-to-4-year-old
age bracket. Also, in recgnltion of the “Women’s Lib
Movement,” would it not be a
nice gesture to make sure that
a fair proportion of youngsters
in each sex group were selected
for the test?
If and when the tests are
completed and the new con­
tainers put on the market, new
problems arise—possibly even
more difficult than the original
one.
What, for example, do we do
to protect the 15 per cent of
the children aged 3 or 4 who
were smart enough to figure
out on their own bow to open
the “safety” containers; and
what do we do to aid the 10
per cent of the adults too dumb
(or mechanically inept) to fig­

ure out how to get at the pills.
This could give rise to a highly
frustrating situation. Think of
a poor guy under such circum­
stances, there, almost within
his grasp, is the desired med-**'*
ication to relieve a throbbing
headache.
But, be can’t do a
thing about it becadse those
thoughtless Washington bureau­
crats produced a container be­
yond his ability to manage.
AV this could drive a fellow to
jump out the window in sheer
desperation.
Come
to think about it
container, of thia type
might actually serve to Increase
the yearly rate of self destruc­
tion within this contused tenper-cent group.
So, we ask those FDA bureau­
crats, Ao you want this on your
conscience—could you really

live with it forever?
In all this nonsense,
one
important foctor has been over­

help thinking during that two
hour lonely period how fortun­
ate I have been during the last
forty-two years. I was lucky. I
had good parents during my
younger years.
The fear I
ha about a step-father or a
step-mother, or the treatment

During the Japanese occup­
ation period, I was proud to

looked—that of parents' res­
ponsibility for the welfare, of
their children. This is a reality
that Washington bureaucracy
never has or never can replace
by containers, practical or
otherwise.
There is a certain amount
of comic relief in all this folderol. However, contemplating
the wasteful cost of it is enough
to give one a monumental head­
ache
So—Pass the aspirin and be
quick about it before those
tricky containers hit the mar­
ket!

We, the people, can work a

power of the President ended
June 30.
On August 4, the
House passed a hko year draft
extension and the Senate will
consider it September 13.
We may be able to “work
a miracle” and shut off the
supply of cannon fodder (our

sons) that allows the war to
drag on if we get sufficient
Senators to support Senator
Gravel in a filibuster! Also,
Senators who will vote to re­
commit the bill (recommitting
a bill is tantamount to “icing
it,” at least for this session!)
Senator Hart is open to pres­
sure from bls constituents; Sen­
ator Mansfield, who as majority
leader controls the movement
of tfou^lH, can also be per­
suaded;
Senators
Muskle,
Humphrey and Kennedy, as pos­
sible presidential candidates,
can be influenced by promising
to WORK FOR THEIR DEFEAT
if they vote to continue the
draft. •

To the Editor:
I agree with your editorial
relating to tourism in the United
States. Why not extend the idea
a step further with, “Buy Amer­
ica.”
If citizens are so na­
tionalistic, why don’t they buy
American cars? Many of our
local patriots are driving ex­
pensive and not-so-expensive
foreign cars with American
flag decals emblazoned on their
windows to advertise their hy­
pocrisy.

�Help Available For Young Marrieds Dreaming of Home
Fred and Mary G. are a young couple who have been married for
16 months. They both have well-paying jobs with promising
futures, no children, one shaggy, halfbreed mongrel and an im­
pressive sum of money in the bank.
Since their marriage they have lived in three different apart­
ments, all rented and all lacking in somethin or other which thtey
believe is necessary for comfortable living. They have decided that
now is the right time to invest in a home, bu neither has any
knowledge of mortgage rates, interest on loans, or whether a newly
constructed or an older, remodeled house would best suit their
needs.
The first move they, or anyone in a similar situation should make
is to a financial institution to discuss mortgages and interest and
determine an approximate price they can afford to pay for a home
over a period of time.
And, according to several area bankers, if a person meets the
requirements of the bank when applying for a mortgage he
probably will receive one because at this time mortgage money is
available.
“A customer can take a conventional loan up to 80 per cent of the
assessed value”, Charles A. Dodge, vice-president of the Hastings
City Bank said. “If a person wants to go to 90 per cent, the extra ten
per cent is covered by the Mortgage Guarantee Insurance Cor­
poration (MGIC), although we discourage it.”
The Hastings Savings and Loan Association welcomes MGIC
loan applicants, according to V. C. Ransom, President. About 30
per cent of their mortgage business involves this type of loan.

ATHLETE

Youngs
Congratulations go to the members of the Hastings Softball Asso­
ciation, the JayCees, the Hastings Mfg. Company softball players and
many others for the highly successful State Class D Softball tourna­
ment conducted here over the Labor Day weekend.
It was an outstanding tourney, with fine games and enthusiastic
crowds—even though the fans (especially local ones) were few.
The sportsmanship was great, and the teams really had that old
discipline so important to a united effort.
JayCee President Ted Eggelston and Doug Miller, who announced
practically all the games, went to Bay City Friday evening to again
present the big State trophy to the Pickle Barrel Lounge in a formal
ceremony. From what we hear, our visitors took away with them a
fine impression of Hastings and its people.

Down the Fairway—The Men’s Annual Open Golf tournament will
be held at River Bend Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 18-19. River-Bend’s
final scheduled tournament will be an Oct. 10 "Turkey Shoot," played
as a men’s captain’s choice partner best ball event. . .
Eldon Mathews and Art Bateman won the men’s scramble at the
Hastings Country Club on labor Day. The team had a gross of 73 and
a net of 50 to win the top $40 first prize. Al Havens and Mike Miller
and B. Wilier and Bob Miller tied for second with 56s. They shared
$50.
Dwight Fisher and son, Jim, were fourth with 69-11—58 for
$16; Joe Burkholder and Herm Bottcher followed with 82-23— 59
and Ron Beyer and Tom Allshouse won sixth with 76-16—60.
The HCC Hole-In-One Club will have a special outing Sunday, the
19th. Professional Gene Maza has nearly 80 in the club. Members
pay $150 for "protection” if they should get an ace. Each time a
hole-in-one is carded by a member, all kick in again. Some of the
fee goes into the pot for the year-end clambake...
Hastings Aviation and Don Haywood are sponsoring a "fly-ln"
golf tournament at River Bend for Oct. 3. The sponsors hope it will
become an annual event.

LAKEWOOD JUN1ON HIGH GRIDDERS-Candidates for Lakewood’s Junior High football team
workout together during the week on the Lakewood High School practice field, but the Woodland boys
form one team and the Lake Odessa boys another. They each play a separate shcedule. The teams
will be combined for one game against theLowel. Their coaches are (on the sled) Bernie Weller, who
coaches the Lake-0 boys, head Coach Ron Martin and John Crane, who handles the Woodland team.
Weller is on the Lakewood faculty and is a former Hastings High standout.

The Armchair’s note last week on the scrapping of the Lakewood
Junior varsity football team indicated that the action was taken to
bolster the Viking varsity squad. While some sophomores were added

to Coach Bill Chlnery’s squad, the Lakewood JV squad was disbanded
because-of lack of personnel With injuries, the number of boys out
for the team got down to nine. Remember, II are required: Six of the
former JV players are on the varsity roster.
Along the sidelines—Bill Bowen, outstanding Lakewood senior
athlete, is considering going to Eastern Michigan University next
Fall. Eastern’s Marching Hurons will provide both the pre-game and
half-time entertainment at the nationally televised NFL Monday, Sept.
20, night opener when the Detroit Lions meet the Minnesota Vikings in
Tiger Stadium. . .

Mike Murphy, 5-10, 214, who was a senior on Hastings High’s only
undefeated football team, has transferred from Kellogg Community to
Grand Valley State at Allendale which scheduled its very first intercollegiate varsity game Sept. 11 against Grand Rapids Junior College.
Murphy is on the Grand Valley squad. . .Al Dood, 6-0, 183, who led
Middleville to Expressway Conference crowns in 1967-68, Is one of
three candidates for the GV quarterbacking Job. Dood was voted
Middleville’s most valuable player his senior year, the year he
established a T-K school passing record. . .Richard Baker, 5-11, 205,
of Vermontville, is a Grand Valley senior linebacker returning from
last year’s campaign played at the freshman and Junior varsity level..

Outdoor Trail-Sportsmen were shook last week with the announce­
ment that the wage-price freeze doesn’t apply to increases in Michi­
gan's 1971 hunting license fee, IfandwhenGov. Milliken approves them.
Sportsmen find it hard to rationalize the hikes which are not covered
by the Federal freeze/ Federal Office of Economic Preparedness

spokesman explained that Michigan hunting licenses come within the

regulative authority of the State and, therefore, the scheduled raise
in these fees is not subject to the 90-day wage and price deadlock which

.

'

■

took effect Aug. 15. The DNR seems intent to price a lot of guys out of
the fun of going out and stalking or sitting on a stump dreaming some
day they will see a buck.
*
The hikes call for: $5 for a small game license, $7.50 for firearm
deer licenses and $7.50 to bunt deer with bow and arrow. Non-resident
small game license Jumped to $2 5, firearm deer permit to $40 and bow
x and arrow deer license $20. Compared to previous costs, residents
pay an extra $2 for small game and $2.50 for both firearm and archery
*eer hunting. Non-resident fees Jumped $5. Michigan residents 65’and
older pay only $1 for a deer hunting permit for either firearms or
archery, but not both. Senior citizens must pay $2 to hunt both ways.
Unchanged is Michigan’s resident sportsman’s license for $18.50. Also
unchanged is the State’s bear license which costs residents $5.10 and
non-residents $25.10. Antlerless deer permit applications must be
postmarked by Sept. 30. You can get a form when you buy your firearm
deer license. . .
This is Hunter Safety Training Week andGov. Milliken urges renewed
effort to "develop the proper safety attitudes in gun handling, both in
4he field and at home.” We’ve had more than our share of gun accid­
ents in the home. You guys with loaded lethal weapons tn drawers,
holsters, gun c4ses, or elsewhere should make certain they are out
of reach of curious hands.

to determine when to proceed. The rains stopped, and the Jaycees
went to work'and got Johnson Field in shape so that the tournament

Church Established Since 1919
The Hastings Church of the United Brethren In Christ was organised
by Rev. Olmstead on July of 1919. The first services were held In a
hall over the Cadwa I lade c. Bakery, on the west side-of Jefferson St.
In 1922 Rev. F. W. Moxon was sent to pastor the church. At that
time the Lawrence Christian house on Church Street-south of the
present City Bank, was obtained for services and as a parsonage.
In 1925 the old Winstorm Insurance Building at the corner of Jef­
ferson and Center was purchased and used for church services and as
a parsonage. In August, 1945, the Rev. Charles Baum was provided
with a parsonage, which was located lust east of the church, in 1956
this house was sold to Mrs. Henry Sponable.
The present church building was purchased from the Free Methodist
on Sept. 17, 1955.
The pastor U K. Jewett, received the keys
on Nov. 20, 1955. The dedication took place May 27, 1956.
The present parsonage on Wilson Avenue was purchased Sept. W,
1956.

�Church Born On
Great Awakening
The Church of the United Brethren In Christ ns born in a treat
spiritual awakening during the last half of the 18th century. We accept
the Bible as the Inspired Word pf God and boldly proclaim Its doctrines
as the only basis for man's salvation. We believe in the only true God:
revealed as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
We believe In Jesus Christ, as Son of God and Son of man, born of the
Virgin Mary to become man’s only Savior and Mediator; through His
death on the cross, resurrection, and ascension to the right hand of the
Fttttr.
We bejfeve in the Holy Spirit, that He is equal in being with the Fatter
and the Son, that he comforts the faithful and guides them into all truth.
We believe In the Spirit filled life, that is a consistent witness in the
world.
Our Church holds to high moral standards and purity of personal
life, marked by holy- living and a concern for the needs of others.
We forbid the use of alcoholic beverages by our members and also
oppose the use of tobacco and habit forming drugs.
We believe in the sacredness of the marriage vow and oppose loose
views of divorce and remarriage.
We are here to serve the people of our community and to teip
people to a fuller life in Christ Jesus.

Verb and Bev Whltea*I from
Eastland, Texas, will present
the Sound of Sagred Song at
the First Church of God tn Has­
tings, Sept. 16-18 at 7 each
evening.
The Sound of Sacred Song is
an evangelistic concert. The
Whiteeels have an extensive
background in the Christian
music field in both vocal and
Instrumental music.
•
Mr. Whiteeel has teen con­
tinuously engaged in the field
of sacred music for more than
20 years in concerts, revivals,
crusades, Bible conferences,
banquets and many special
meeting*.

Judo,
one
answer
to
today'sever-increasing threat of
the strongarm element, will
make the scene again this fall at
Hastings High under sponsorship
of the WMCA Program which
continues to widen its horizons.
Classes, planned to begin
during the second week of school,
have been scheduled tentatively
for a 1-hour session preceded by a
1-hour practice each Tuesday at
the new high school where
everyone “over 7 and under 70”
as one instructor joshingly put it,
is cordially welcome to attent
and sign up for the program of
self-protection. A small dues will
be initiated just to cover ex­
penses, and anyone interested is
invited to contact Bob Kipg, Y
Director.
Mr. Yoshihari Ogasawara,
Black Belt 2nd Class, of Battle
Creek, has been accepted as the
regular instructor and will be on
hand to teach the finer points of
this manly (and now very
womanly) art which in the past
few years has expanded into a
sort of community project in
which cities large and small have
organized private and public
clubs.
Accompanying photos were
taken during one of the summer
Judo sessions just as the project
was
being
introduced.
Promotions will be awarded
according
to
individual
qualifications, according to the
“Y" standards of encouraging
participation, and to date local
interest seems to be on the up­
swing as about 30 people very
energetically participated in the
first lessons.
In the photo sequence Tom
Johnson and Kathy Tobias, a
local engaged couple, demon­
strate how it’s done as they lay
groundwork for their own mutual
protection. Nothing like starting
a marriage with togetherness,
and when these two reach their
full “Black Belt” potential we
shudder to think what will
happen if a mugger attempts to
"put this marriage asunder.”
In the other photos instructors
give with the lessons and the
“non-instructor” helping the two
little gals is Richard A. Aumick
of Hastings who helped organize
the Judo classes.

�Questions and Answers: Selective Service Lottery
Here are a number of ques­
tions frequently asked about
Random Selection:
Q. Once I am given a numb­
er in the drawing, do 1 keep
that number?
A. Yes, that number—which
is a random ranking of your
birthday and the birthdays of
all the other men in your lot­
tery group — never changes.

Reed &amp; Hoppes Towing of Ionia had a real fun entry in the
Woodland homecoming parade. The riders tossed out candies and
balloons and even pencils and pens. This lad was one of many who
happily ran to catch one of the colorful balloons.

Fasting Priest Urges Participation
In Peace Activities
The struggle for a lasting
world peace will go on a life­
time, Father William P. Kob­
za, pastor of S. S, Cyril and
Methodius Catholic Church at^
Gun Lake and St. Augustine
at Middleville, said Wednesday
evening, Sept. 8.
Known as the '‘fastingpriest”
who began a llquids-only diet
about three weeks ago as a
prdtest against the Indo-China
war, Father Kobza told an au­
dience of 35 that he felt a
tremendous sense of power­
lessness because no one is
listening to the people’s op­
inions on the war.
“In one sense the people feel
apathetic because the govern­
ment will not react,” he said.
“But in another sense there
is a feeling of anarchy, as if
people were really ready to
do something serious."
The 36 year old priest with
neatly combed hair and trim
sideburns said he had lost 12
pounds after 16 or 17 days of
fasting.
He began his fast
because he felt he was still
maintaining his privileges while
innocent victims were being
killed by an Inhumane war.
“I decided to bring the war
a little closer to home," he
said.
Father Kobza, who believes
that his bishop gave him a
strong statement of support of
his fast, said that God sup­
plies encouragement

has
3,609
according to

the State-wide horse survey
made by 4H leaders and club
members last month.
The survey, taken through
the Extension Service at the
request of the U.S. in the wake
of an outbreak of Venezuelan
Equine Encephalomyelitis in
Texas,
reveales
there are
171,005 horses, ponies, mules
and donkeys in the State.
The disease (VEE) causes
sleeping sickness in horsesand
other equine species.
It can
infect man, although the attack
does not usually have serious
consequences.

struggle for peace "by being
the living force who keeps lead­
ing us onward."
"This faith is a foundation to
•ead us into the future and the
struggle we must engage in,”
he said
Father Kobza, who spoke at
the
Emmanuel
Episcopal
Church parish
house,
was
sponsored by the Barry County
Peace Committee and he urged
the audience to participate in
several peace-oriented activi­
ties this fall.

Don't be confused by the fact
that each year a new drawing
is held to determine new numb­
ers for men reaching the age of
19.
Q.
I received by number
last year while 1 was in col­
lege, and now I am due to grad­
uate and lose my student de­
ferment.
Where do I fit into
the draft pool?
A. You will take your place
in the current First Priority
Selection Group according to
the number and are classified
1-A,
your chances of being
drafted are great; if you have a
high number, your chances are
greatly decreased.
Q. I have a 2-S student de­
ferment. Can I drop this de­
ferment and enter the 1-A or
1-A-O pool and take my chances
on being drafted?
A. You may drop your de­
ferment at any time.
Q.
If I enter the pool late
in the year and I am not draft­
ed by the end of December, do
I go into the second priority
group?
A. Not necessarily. If your
random sequence numb?’' is
lower than the highest numb­
er reached by your local board
in the calendar year, then your
liability will be extended for
three months, and you will be
drafted before anybody in the

iiivil:

Q.-

My birthday in the lot­

tery gave me sequence number
250, and I shall be in Class
1-A next year. Can 1 absolutely
count on not being inducted?
A. No. You cannot absolute­
ly count on not being inducted.
However, if current draft levels
remain at their present level,
your number should not be
reached.

ceive your lottery number se­
quence number until later in
1972, and you will not be eli­
gible for induction until Jan­
uary of 1973.
* Q,
I am 19 years old, in
this year’s prime eligibility
group, have no basis for de­
ferment, and have sequence
number 300.
If I am not
inducted this year, can 1 be
inducted next year or in sub­
sequent years?
A.
You are liable for in­
duction to age 26 (or to age
35 if you are or have been de­
ferred).
Next year you will
have a decreased vulnerability,
and unless there is a major
national emergency you willnot
be called.

ONE HUNTRED AND SIXTEENTH YEAR

TAKES THE GAVEL-Cedric Morey (left), as mayor pro tern, receives the gavel from Mayor
Franklin C. Beckwith after Mayor Beckwith presided at his final Council session Monday, Sept. 13.
Mayor Beckwith has purchased a home north of the City limits and was ineligible to continue in the
office he had held since April of 1962. His resignation was effective Wednesday, Sept. 15, and the
charter provides for the mayor pro tern to take over. On Sept. 27 the Council is to name a successor for
Morey’s aldermanic seat on the Council, and also for another mayor pro tem. Should a mayor pro tern
not be named, First Ward Aiderman Edwin Wietnik automatically would serve in that capacity.Banner photo.

STILL IN THE HILLS-Aaron Sherk, 2313 Wasabinang, kept the fire
burning last weekend during the Folk Lafe Festival at Charlton Park.
This old time still didn't turn out moonshine or "white mule” but it
did attract much attention from the festival visitors. Despite chilly
weather Saturday many enjoyed the varied demonstrations and
displays. Sunday morning's cold drizzle forced the demonstrations to
be moved indoors, and the church service was held in the old Bristol
Inn, being restored as one of the park’s historic buildings.

their vows in a 3:00 wedding
ceremony Saturday, Sept. 4, at
Central United Methodist Church.

and the bridegroom is the son of
Mr. and Mrs. J. Franklin Huntley
of Hastings.
The newlyweds greeted friends
at a reception held in the church
parlor with Mr. and Mrs. Frank
Hagerty serving as host and
hostess.
Given in marriage by her
brother, Steve Davis of Columbia,
Tennessee, the bride wore a floor­
length gown of candlelight ivory
organza over taffeta with puffed
sleeves and trimmed with ivory
venise lace. Her Camelot cap
headpiece was also trimmed with
ivory venise lace and held bridal
illusion veiling. She carried a
bouquet of white roses.
Identical floor-length gowns of
royal blue chiffon over taffeta
trimmed with ivory lace were
worn by Miss Janie Davis of Ft.

Wayne, Ind. the bride’s sister,
honor maid, and bridesmaid Mrs.

Stephen Lange of Lansing. The
honor maid carried three white
sweetheart
roses
and
the
bridesmaid carried one white and
two pin roses. Flower grils Amy
Huntley and Christina Curtis wore
identical royal blue and white
dotted Swiss floor-length dresses
trimmed with blue lace designed
like the other attendants and
carried baskets of rose petals.
Kevin Curtiss was ring bearer.

man with Seaman Craig Huntley of

Friday evening a rehearsal
dinner was hosted by the groom’s
parents at Traverse City Golf and
Country Club.
Following the reception a buffet
supper was hosted by former
Hastings residents, Mr. and Mrs.

Robert Abbey, at their home on
Grand Traverse Bay. The band
from Little Ceasars was there to
entertain guests and the bride and
groom, both talented musicians,
were persuaded to join the group
for a couple of numbers.
One of the poignantly loving
moments during the wedding
ceremony happened as tbe bride­
to-be walked down the aisle toward
the alter-she stopped to give a rose
to the mother of the groom and to
her own mother.
Among those from Hastings at
all of the festivities were tor. and
Mrs. Stuart Cleveland, Mr. and
Mrs. Stanley Cummings, Mr. and

ding. H.H.S. friends of the groom

the reception occured as the
Shusters were visiting with a
distinguished looking gentleman
from Hart, Michigan. He was the
person who introduced Frank and
Helen Birke, Bob and Dick Birke’s
parents, quite some years ago.

Christ, Scientist

In 1900, a group of Hastings residents interested in Christian
Science began to hold meetings at the home of one of their number.
In 1903 they moved to more suitable space in the G.A.R. Hall on State
Street.
By 1906 there was enough interest to organize a church known then
as Christian Science Society, Hastings. The following year (1907)
they began to hold services in the business section at 19 South Jef­
ferson Street in a small auditorium on the second floor. They also
opened their first Reading Room there.

Scientist, Hastings, reaffirmed its status as a branch of the First
Church of Christ, Scientist in Boston, Massachusetts, and in­
corporated a few weeks later under the laws of the State of Michigan.
At about the same time they acquired the former Hendershott
'residence at 136 West Center Street and remodeled it into a church
edifice and Reading Room, ft was dedicated (completely out of debt)

Nashville
Sewer Plant
Inadequate
Representatives Fred Timmer
and Ted Williams of Williams &amp;
Works, Engineers of Grand
Rapids, met vyith the Nashville
council Thursday evening, Sept. 9,
to discuss updating Nashville’s
sewage treatment plant.
One method would be a secon­
dary treatment plant which would
be constructed near the present
one. Rough estimates would be in
the neighborhood of $240,000. R
would also be necessary to have a
person on duty 12 hours a day to
conduct tests and keep the
equipment in operation.
Another plan would be to forsake
this present plant entirely and put
in lagoon-type clarification. This
would mean that the village
purchase 100 acres of land on
which lo put the lagoons. This type
project would cost somewhere in
the vicinity of $450,000 but would
not necessitate that manpower the
secondary treatment plant would.
Seme time back the village of­
ficials applied for Federal aid
I toward the sanitation problem, and
IF the village meets the necessary
requirements the government
would pay approximately 75
I percent of the cost.

THE HASTINGS BANNER.. September 29. 1971

�ARMC
ATHLETE
Buzz
Youngs
The West Central Conference
football teams, bloodied in their
inaugural encounters with non­
league foes, will open their
championship campaigns Friday
night and their fortunes can only
go one way-UP. Only Hastings
managed as much as a tie in the
opening contests, and the Saxons

had to come from behind to
salvage that.
Grand Ledge and St. Johns,
defending co-champions, droped
their opening bids, the Comets
losing 18-7 at Okemos and the
Redwings losing to Mason, 15-14.
The Hastings-Lakewood game
was a thriller for the fans, who

watched the Vikings dominate the
first half to grab an 8-0 lead, and
then Hastings came back in the
second half to tie the score on a
ground and aerial attach.
Lakewood’s Coach Bill Chinery
was especially pleased with his
Vikings first half defense, but not
with their offensive mistakes that
probably cost them another touch­
down. “We’ve a lot of Junior
people,’’ Coach Chinery pointed
out. “We’ll improve as the season
progresses. “
Coach Chinery was far from
pleased with the officiating bn
Johnson Field Friday night. “I was
dissatisfied with the officiating,
and you can quote me,” Coach
Chinery asserted. "I thought it was
real poor. There were poor calls
both ways, and we had our share.
I’m not using the officiating as an
alibi. It was just poor. When kids
play as hard as both teams, they
should have quality officiating,"

Coach Chinery continued. He said
that after looking at the game
films, he knew there were many
mistakes made.
Coach Chinery praised the
Hastings eleven as being well
prepared for the Viking invasion.
Lakewood’s lone injury was Mike
Norris’ injured knee.
Hastings didn’t fare as well,
injury wise. Coach Eckman said
Greg Bush suffered a shoulder
dislocation while making a key
block and may be out for the
season. This is a real blow, Coach
Eckman said, citing Greg as the
best end on the squad, and one of
two veteran offensive lineman.
Coach Eckman said he never
thought he would ever be too
pleased with a tie, but “I am," he
added. He was happy the way his
kids came back to come from
behind to tie what is probably one
of Lakewood’s best teams in the
last four or five years.

Dave Wilcox, who is obtaining
considerable fame for his wild fowl

Coaching Debut
Lee Belfield, former Hastings
High and Kalamazoo College grid

standout, made his debut as a
varsity football coach Friday
night. His Bloomingdale Cardinals
cropped a 26-8 decision to the
Wayland Wildcats. Lee, a devoted
admirer of HHS Athletic Director
Jock Clarey, declared that if he
could instill Coach Clarey’s great
philosophy of life into just one boy,
he will have accomplished a great
deal. By the way, Coach Clarey
will be installed into the Michigan
Coaches Hall of Fame Saturday at

Fashion is a fleeting thing.
We really have to toe the mark,
watch the trends, read all the
fashion forecasts...round toes,
pointed toes, square toes, no
toes. It’s really hectic. If we
didn't love the business so
much, we would get into a nice
steady trade like nuclear
physics or something. But
fashion is really exciting...we
never cease to feel a tingle of
the spine with the first look at
the new season’s sty les..always
changing, always beautiful.
For example, we’ve bought
all the hottest, most chic styles
we could find for fall. And after
so many years here in the
business we know what our
customers want and we buy

you will be thrilled as we were

By

tot YEARS YOUNO-Danny Olmstead (left) of Assyria Township was 101 years old on Sept. 2, and he
was almost as spry as ever, if the twiiJde in his eyes is a criterion. Danny, who was introduced to the
Barry County Board of Commissioners Tu«*day, Sept. 14 by Assyria Supervisor Jack Love (right),
was the luncheon guest of Commissioner Luther Lenz (center) who is chairman of the board. Danny
delights in giving his prescription on how to live a long time. He says he never smoked, drank hard
liquor or ran around with women-until he became 14 years of age! And he said it as he puffed on a big
cigar. His wife Chole, died 14 years ago -Banner photo.

INSULATION

�Bob Carpenter Has ‘Big Bertha’
The June edition of the American
Drycleaner carried an illustrated
story about G. Robert Carpenter,
who operates “The Hardestworking steam tunnel in the South­
west” at League City, Texas.
He is the son of George Car­
penter, former Hastings resident,
and the brother of Mrs. Charles
Smeiker of the Music Center in
Hastings.
Carpenter has staked his life’s
savings on the premise: High
volunTe and low cost.
His three-employee operation is
already doing $150 a day and he

expects to increase soon to $400.
His goal is a quarter million a
year.
The "Big Bertha” of his highvolume, low-cost production ar­
tillery is his new steam tunnel.
"You can put through suit coats
quicker ana better than they could
be done by a presser with 30 years
experience," Carpenter claims.
"And if you leg your pants, it will
top 90 percent of them,” he adds.
Until his new tunnel was in­
stalled, Gordon used a standard
type steam cabinet.
Carpenter
entered
the

drycleaning business in 1961 in
South Bend, Ind. In 1965, when
business began to drop, he decided
there had to be some changes
made in the industry in order to
make a living.
For three years be studied,
tested and searched for the right
location. “When the time was
right, with the steam tunnel soon to
become available, I made by
move. I put all my life’s savings
into the venture here, and it’s
paying off," he says.
His plant offers a full range of
service

Trailer Park
41 Nashville
Richard Welch of the Barry
County Zoning Commission has
asked the reaction of the Maple
Valley Board of Education to the
possibility of a trailer court,
“Lakes Unlimited” being con­
structed on property near Lake
One just outside Nashville on the
former Dryfoos property.
The park would be developed by
an outside organization to ac­
commodate 100 to 150 trailers.
The board would be interested in
the system of taxation of trailers in
the area in relationship to regular
taxation on buildings, and will seek
more information on the project
before replying to Mr. Welch’s
inquiry.

Seek Algonquin
Lake Histories.
Don Montogomery, president of
the Algonquin Lake Community
Association, would like people with
historical documents, pictures and
records relating to the immediate
area of Algonquin Lake to permit
them to be presented at the Oc­
tober meeting of the association.

�I Community Notes... ]
WOODLAND-The Woodland Lions
held their regular meeting. They

meet the second and fourth
Tuesday of every month at the
Lions Den on Main Street. Mrs.
EwildaDillenbeck is their cook and
always serves a delecious meal.
Their speaker the 14th was Dean
Sible from Consumers Power
Company. He spoke on air and
water pollution and showed a film
“No
Deposit,
No
Return’’.
Pollution is caused a great deal
from carelessness. Each one of us
has an obligation to prevent
pollution by being careful what we
throw where. Following the
regular meeting, President Buxton
conducted a Board meeting. At
this time the new committees were
appointed.
The
Labor
Day
festivities were also discussed with
new ideas for another year
suggested. The chicken bartecue
was so overwhelmingly accepted
that several had to be turned away.
Another year they hope to have
enough for everyone. October will
be a big month for the In­
ternational Lions. It is mem­
bership month in which Lions
everywhere will try to get new
members. As of July 3L 1971, Lions
International had 952,026 members
in 25,342 clubs in 146 countries and
geographical areas. Woodland
may be small now but the Lions
want to increase this number. The
club has many functions, including
supplying eye glasses for the
underprivileged, the Leader Dog
School, Home for the Blind in
Grand Rapids, Braille service
work at Jackson prison, etc. In
addition, Lions create good
friendships and have good times
together. Why not join and be a
part
of
this
International
organization. Their next meeting
will be September 28 with Gordon
Ironside presenting the program.
The football season opened of­
ficially Friday night for Lakewood.
The boys had a scriipmage against
Haslett and proved to be in pretty
good shape. The Vikings travel to
Hastings for their first game. The
freshmen were host to Hastings
Saturday at 10 a.m.
Four of the local firemen went to
Middleville Saturday, Sept. 11, to,
participate in a water ball fight.
Their first competition was with
Nashville and Woodland won.
Sparta ..proved to be a real
challenge and they had to battle
four times before our boys won.
That entitled them to the Class B
trophy which they brought home.
They defeated the Class C champs
-Moline, next. Their first defeat of
the day was Bellevue, Class A
champs. Woodland was well
represented by Darwin Mc­
Clelland, Don Hitt, Galen Kilmer
and Glendon Curtis. Good work
boys.

should be thinking.

Let’s Again Meet Our Needs
“Let’s Again Meet Our Needs”
is the theme of the 1971-72 United
Fund effort beginning Tuesday,
Oct. 5, with the kick-off breakfast
at 9 at the Leason Sharpe
Memorial Hall. All workers are
urged, to attend.
K
As in past years a small army
of concerned people will call on
their co-workers and neighbors to
raise funds for local youth ac­
tivities: Camp Fire Girls,
Y.M.C.A., Boy Scouts, 4H and the
Youth Council. For the Salvation
Army, for Mental Health and
Family and Children’s Services.
For the Red Cross and it’s im­
portant Blood program, and for
Research,
Services
and
Education for a better tomorrow
through Michigan United Fund
associated agencies.
In addition, this year for the
first time the fund will be helping
fund E.B.I. Breakthru, a threecounty work activity center
serving mentally, physically and
emotionally disturbed adults.
Breakthru helps the handicapped
help themselves by training to
make them, at least, partially
self supporting:
This year’s budget requests
from the 10 local and 36 State and
National agencies in the United
Fund totaled over $74,000.
The
Budget
Committee,
chaired by Mrs. Beatrice M.
’Fisher, and assisted by Farrell
Anderson, C. W. Dolan Jr., M. C.‘J
Klovanich, Earl L. McMullen andI
John Panfill met several times to,
review requests and listen to,
agency representatives.
The committee recommendedi
allocations to: Boy Scouts, $9,862,
Camp Fire Girls, $4,100, Youthi
Council,

$9,500,

Y.M.C.A.,

$17,660, and 4H, $475. A total for
youth of $41,597.00.
Red Cross, $8,000, The
Salvation Army, $1,000, Family
and Children’s Services, $4,000,
Barry County Mental Health,
$2,400, E.B.I. Breakthru, $1,000,
Michigan United Fund, $7,000.
Total for others, $23,400.00
Campaign and operating ex­
penses, $1,300. Total of all needs,
$66,297.
Directors of the Fund approved
the budget in June.
Campaign Chairman, Edward
Freeland, pointed out that this
total is only $2,265.00 over last
year’s budget allocations, a very
modest increase of about 3’,i
percent, and only accomplished
by very careful study by the
budget committee and the
directors. Freeland said the
money goes to support the ac­
tivities that make this a better
place to live, both for our youth
and for adults.

EDITORIAL
by R. M. C.
There will probably be no dearth of ideas concerning ways
and means for improving the business district area here in
order to make it more attractive and convenient for shoppers.
The problem will be to get agreement on a single plan that a
majority will support.

Following are a few facts that must be kept in mind. The City
is hard-pressed for funds and so sizeable expenditures from
this source are out of the question for the time being. Thus any
changes made will have to involve a minimum of capital ex­
penditures.
However, any immediate plan adopted does not have to be
"the final one" but rather a temporary first step in a long
range plan for permanent improvements. A shopping mall
may be the ultimate answer. But this Will take time and
considerably more money than is now in prospect.

A very practical first step to rectify present conditions might
be a return to angle parking and a slow and rigidly enforced
speed limit on Stale Street. In addition, crossways should be
plainly marked with the rule that, within crossway markings,
pedestrian traffic shall always have the right of way. If Inis
requires a city ordinance, for purpose of enforcement, such an
ordinance should be passed.

As things now stand, State Street is a wide open speedway
that quite efficiently divides the business district in two
Dragsters and fast moving traffic has the right of way.
Pedestrians and shoppers must wait at the crossways for a
chance to make a dasn for the other side.
Probably no other "Main Street” in Southwest Michigan
lias faster-moving through traffic than the one here in
Hastings. Three long blocks without a traffic light to slow and
control the movement of automobiles and trucks. From the
standpoint of a motorist anxious to get out of the city, the
situation is ideal. From thestandpqintof residents and out of
town people who come to the business district to shop, the
situation is anything but ideal. Possibly that is why many
people drive to shopping centers in Battle Creek and Grand
Rapids where parking is free and you can shop without the
necessity of dodging through lines of fast-moving automobiles.
Personally, we believe that Hastings has potentially at least,
a&gt; much to offer as the big centers, despite their acres of free
paiking.

For example, the home town merchant has the opportunity
to give a polite and personal customer service that the
metropolitan centers can’t hope to match. True, the local store
doesn’t always come through with such service-but the op­
portunity is there for the asking. Local stores that do stress
such service are really pleasant and satisfactory places in
which to trade--and you always know the people with whom
you are dealing. Home town merchants who do not take ad­
vantage of this factor, are missing a really good bet.

Also, home town merchants, if on their toes, can take ad­
vantage -of-Jocal conditions, situations, preferences,etc., to
promote special sales and special items ot merchandise that
the average,,-Shopping Center can’t duplicate because
programs are not controlled locally but from a central office.
Small city "Main Streets” are still very much in the picture
and can comoete on even terms with metropolitan shopping
centers-if they are alert enough to take advantage of the many
factors going for them.

***
Il is very easy for reporters, pundits and other com­
mentators, stationed in protected positions along the sidelines
to tell Gov. Nelson Rockefeller just how the outbreak at the
Attica (N.Y.) Criminal Racility should have been handled.
Hindsight is an interesting fame to play.
One must always keep in mind that it was Gov. Rockefeller
who had to make the command decision which he did, it is safe
to assume, on the basis of information furnished by those
closest to the developing cresis.
Admitting that there is always room for improvement in the
U.S. penal system, the fact remains that society does have the
right and need for self protection by using facilities at hand. If
it were necessary to await the creation of an ideal system
before taking any action against criminal elements, it is
probable that society, itself, would be reduced to a slate of
chaos before the "experts” could agree on any practical plan
to achieve that system.

Amid all the comment on the Attica situation, one must not
lose sight of the fact that events leading to the tragedy were set
in motion by the prisoners, themselves. There was talk and
bargaining between prisoners and prison officials-promise, of
reforms incorporating most of the demands put forth by the
inmates except a grant of amnesty for those involved in the
uprising.
Would continued bargaining have led to an ultimate peaceful
settlement? The "hindsight'' specialists think so. But what if
prolongued talks merely led to an intensification of the bitter
feeling already in evidence among the inmates with even more
explosive action resulting in greater loss of life when the break
finally came. In that event, Gov. Rockefeller would have been
roundly criticized for lack of firmness. The Attica Facility,
one must remember, is for hard core criminals, guilty of
violent crimes, including murder.
Not even the staunchest enemies of Gov. Rockefeller can
truthfully accuse him of being insensible to humandecency.His
record, in fact, points strongly to the contrary.

Who among the. Rockefeller critics would have en toyed
being in his shoes when the hard decision had to be made. As
mentioned above, it is easy to wax critical and philosophical
when sucbui responsibility is not yours-something quite dif­
ferent, however, when you are in the "hot seat” from which
the "buck” can be passed no further.
4......... THE HASTINGS BANNER ... .September 27, 1»71

Even though the weather at Charlton Park during the Folk
Life Festival was something less than ideal-cold and damp on
Saturday; an all-day rain on Sunday-the displays and han­
dicraft booths were unusual and interesting. We hope the
event will be tried again another year and with better co­
operation from the elements. The several hundred who braved
the threatening weather on Saturday were amazed at the
va riety and quality of the handicraft work exhibited. There
are evidently many dedicated hobbyists in this area who have
achieved exceptional degrees of skill in their favorite crafts.
If the Folk Life Festival had been held under "Indian
Summer" (renditions, we believe the Park would have at­
tracted capacity crowds on both days. However, despite rain,
and cold, the event showed sufficient potential to be worth
repeating another year. The Festival is not only interesting,
but gives recognition and encouragement to amateur craft­
smen who have taken the time to develop real skill in con­
structive and unusual hobbies.

Voice Of The People
TO THE EDITOR:
A bill which would allow the
manufacture and interstate
shipment of candy containing up
to 84 percent alcohol by volume
lias passed the sub-committee
and will likely be voted on by the
full Committee of Interstate and
Foreign Commerce this month.
Write Mr. Harley Staggers,
Chairman of this Committee, to
try to keep it from coming to a
vote. He may not be able to do
this and it will come to the floor.
The bill is written in such an
innocuous way that many
Congressmen will not' even
bother to read it.
So, PLEASE write your
Congressman urging him to vote
against this bill, H.R. 7785, when
it comes to the floor. And .to your
Senator, alerting him to the
dangers of the companion bill in
the Senate: S 782.
These bills would permit
children to have access to candy
'containing 24 times the alcohol
content of beer. No doubt this is a
subtle move on the part of the
liquor industry to entice the
younger generation to get hooked
on alcohol at an early age. There
are many obvious reasons that
can be given for asking them to
vote against these bills.
Barry County W.C.T.U.
Mrs. Gerald H. Smith, Pres.

TO THE EDITOR:
Could someone answer a
question for me? Why is it that a
decent woman who is widowed,
with three children to support
cannot find a house to rent in the
town of Hastings? Every time I
call about a house, the people
seem very willing to show the
house until they discover that I
have no husband.
Then very readily they change
their minds and come up with
some of the flimsest excuses for
not renting to me that you could
imagine. Either they say I have
too many children or something.
It seems to make no difference
that I have excellent credit
ratings, that I am rarely, if ever,
late on any payments I might
owe, and that I have very good
references. In fact they usually
don’t even wait to hear that.
Why is this? Do you suppose if I
were to marry some lazy,
drunken, good for nothing per­
son, who didn't even have a job I
could find a home for my children
and myself? Believe me. we
didn’t ask to be left without a
father and husband. And I don't
feel we are asking anything so
out landish. I would lust like the
same chance as anybody else to
provide a home for my family.
Why must some people insist
upon making it more difficult for
people like myself who are just
wanting to make an honest try?
If I sound bitter, believe me
I’m trying very hard not to be,
but we have to have a house and
home just like the so called
"normal families.”
Very sincerely,
B. Marie Spillane

Are We Too Late
To Save America

G. M.’s
Corner
Dr. Paul P. Chien, President of
University Media Consultants and
Publisher of the Valley Journal,
conducted a special seminar on the
current Far East political con­
ditions for the Maryland-Delaware
and Washington, D.C. Press
Associations.
According to Dr. Chien, the
People’s Republic of China is very
much anxious to establish
diplomatic relations with the
United States and wishes the
United States to pledge her
military power to defend the
People’s Republic of China in the
event of Russian aggression on the
Chinese border. According to
history, the relationship between
Russia and China has not been
very friendly.
Dr. Chien also mentioned the
economic expansion of Japan
eventually will revive the
militaristic aggression of the
Japanese Government. Japan may
reclaim Formosa as part of her
military economic influental area.
The United States will not be able
to benefit too much by recognizing
the People's Republic of China
because the experience of Great
Britian, Russia, Canada and
France after they established a
relationship with the People’s
Republic of China shows there
were no particular economic or
military advantages for any of
these nations. But it is a good
political maneuver domestically
for President Nixon.
Dr. Chien concluded his ob­
servations by stating that the
People’s Republic of China has not
had a peaceful period since her
establishment in 1949. There was
the Korean War, The Forward
Leap, breaking up with Russia,
Cultural Revolution. Only during
the last two years has Chairman
Mao regained his power through
the military influence. The real
struggle for Chairman Mao’s
position is still not cleared.
President Nixon may well be a
very disappointed person when he
returns from- the trip.

Recently, President Richard M.
Nixon’s policy on price and wage
freeze has received a tremendousamount of support from industrial
leaders and the rank and file
laborers. However, this policy is
not new to the American people.
We have used the same methods
during the Second World War by
President Roosevelt; during the
Korean War by
President
Truman;
and
President
Eisenhower was also very much
against the undesirable in­
flationary trend. President Ken­
nedy instituted the seven percent
tax credit measure in order to
create more jobs as well as help
our domestic industries.
However, during the last two
weeks, several labor leaders who
are against President Nixon’s
policy, and several Presidential
candidates have been trying to
discredit our President’s policy. In
doing so, they are not considering
the national interest first, but they
put their personal ambitions, in­
dividual egos, and self-interest
first.
We all recognize we are facing a
national crisis. A nation cannot
survive if we are divided. The best
illustration is when two company
officers both are against each
other for their self-interest, one
tries to eliminate the other and at
the end, the company is bankrupt
and both officers apply for

THE NEW 1972
FINE DEFENSIVE PLAYER­
-Chuck Heath played a key role in
the Hastings High 6-0 victory
over visiting Lansing Waverly
Friday night. Heath made two
vital pass interceptions to stall
the Waverly offensive machine.
Heath also had a big part in the
Saxon- attach.-White’s
photography.
Hastings threatened. The Saxons
took over at mid-field after
Waverly drew consecutive 15
yard penalties. Welton romped 42
yards for a first down on the
Warriors yard line. A smash lost
four then Fitzgerald passed to
Mitch St. Martin, who had been
converted from a tackle to of­
fensive end after Greg Bush was
injured in the Lakewood Game.
Mitch
reached
the
two.
Waverly’s strong defenders kept
the Saxons out of pay dirt.
Heath’s second interception
put the Saxons in a scoring
position in the third period with a
first down on the 25. Two rushing
plays by Welton and Heath made
it first down on the Warrior 10.
Consecutive procedure penalties
on the Saxons and two incomplete
passes gave the ball to the
visitors.
St. Johns scored once in the
first three quarters and twice in
the fourth to down Charlotte.
George Rosner went over from
the four for the first touchdown.
Bruce Cameron drove in from the
three for the second and Ken
Schueller passed to Gary Rappuhn for six yards and the third
canto tally. Schuller sneaked in
from the one and Cameron
romped 16 yeards for the last
quarter touchdowns.
Ionia scored first against in­
vading Grand Ledge when John
Roberts raced 42 yeards. Mike
Rogers slipped in from the six to
tie the score for the Ledgers, then
Nick Ludwick went over from the'
one and Ionia led, 13-6, at the end
of the first period. Rogers took a
32 yard pass from Lynn VanDerSteen to score in the second
stanza. The Comets tallied twice
in each of the final two periods to
win going away. Joe Hughes went
71 yards up the middle to make it
18-13 and VanDerSteen followed
with a 24 yard scoring romp.
Hughes went in again from the
one and Garv Bashore took a five
yard aerial from Dan Hansen for
the Comet’s final six pointer.

Hastings High
Crisis Drug Program
By Tom Hubbard
Parents and students con­
cerned about drug abuse in
Hastings attended a 20 hour
course on empathetic un­
derstanding during the past
weekend, September 24 to 26, to
enable Hastings to start a crisis
intervention program.
The course emerged through
the Substance Abuse Committee
which has been in operation sinci
last winter. It was sponsored by
the office of Governor Milliken
the Hastings chapters of
Kiwanis, Rotary and Elks, the
Barry County Medical Society
and the Felpausch Food Center.
Volunteers from the Drug
Education Center of Lansing
(DEC) and a representative from
the governor’s office formally
conducted the meetings.
The only prerequisite for the
course was the desire to help
others with theit problems. The
basic purpose was to teach
empathy, or how to relate to
another person’s feelings without
getting emotionally involved.
Following this training, the
Substance Abuse Committee
hopes that the 24 adults and
students involved will become
volunteer workers in the
proposed crisis intervention
program.
Additional sessions of this
empathetic understanding
training are planned for the near
future.

It gives us a chance to become involved in the political
structure of our nation. It gives us the chance to make im­
portant changes. It gives us the chance to be counted as an
adult and a mature American citizen, rather than a child.
The 18 year old vote means more than power to youth. R
means responsibility Power cannot be gained without
assuming responsibility. We must become informed citizens
Even if a person is not 18, but only 15 or 16, he must begin to
understand the power that will soon be his. He must learn to
control this power and learn to use it to the best of his ability.
Although the 18 year old vote puts the power within our
reach, it does not mean that we will achieve this power. The
ingredient needed to make the vole effective is organization.
Without organization, we are lost. There is no chance to
become a working part of our government. There is no chance
to bring about change. The young people of America must
unite and vote as a whole but, most Important, we must be sure
to vote and be counted.

By Bob Bennett
Lakewood High’s Debate team

section entitled “Special Methods
of Refutation” in the morning. In
the afternoon the group was
subject to a exhibitor debate by a
number
of
Wayne

Attending the meeting from
Lakewood were Bill Smith, Linda
Middaugh, Mary Wery, Terry
Geiger, Jon Dickinson, Sherry

Horseback riding in. the Barry
State Game Area will be cur­
tailed from Oct. 1 until next April
1, Marvin Cooley, of the
Department
of
Natural
Resources wildlife division, has
announced.
Cooley wrote Gary Fasset of
the Flying Horseshoe Ranch, R3
Middleville, that the horseback
riding trail will be closed Oct. 1 to
April 1, and the ataging area
connected with the trail will be
closed for the same period to
horse use and overnight cam­
ping.
Cooley pointed out that the
standard policy is to ban hor­
seback riding, driving or pack
animals during the deer seasons.
“However, the uncontrolled
use of the Barry State Game
Area by horseback riders has
been so extensive that a critical
appraisal of the staging area nd
^bridle trail will be undertaken
this Winter to determine just
what will be permitted if the unit
is reopened April 1,1972," Cooley
wrote.
Cooley advised Fasset to let his
patrons know that this Stateowned land will not be available
for their riding pleasure and that
the game area rules will be en­
forced.

�From The Peelings
Mrs. John (Lol)a) Peabody is holding a red potato* weighing one p
ound, nine ounces. Not only is it a big one, but the red potatoes dug
from the Peabody’s garden grew from peelings from the kitchen.
They got more than a peck of red potatoes from the vines. Lolla says
she guesses she has a "green thumb." Behind their home she has a
tom a toe plant which came up for the fourth year. She also grew a
watermelon plant from an especially good watermelon they bought,
and a "General Jackson" rose from a blossom a friend gave her. She
uses her coffee grounds as a mulch for the rose.

Flaming Home
Mrs. Frank Roberts escaped
from her flaming home on the
Burchett Road near Doster about
9 a.m. Friday, Sept. 24, but not
before notifying the Delton Fire
Department.
Delton Fire Chief Lynn Stedge
reported the fire apparently
started in the kitchen area of the
two-story frame structure.
Delton firement did a good job
of extinguishing the blaze,
despite their 10-mile run, Chief
Steage said.

We want your new
Chevrolet to be the best car you ever owned.
The best.
No qualifications. No reservations.
We want it to be the most beautiful, most
trouble-free, most comfortable car you ever
owned.
So we've given the 1972 Caprice (above)
power steering, power front disc brakes, refined
power ventilation and an improved front bumper
to provide added front-end protection.
*
Plus a 400-cubic-inch V8 engine and Turbo
Hydra-matic automatic transmission.
"

All standard, as you expect with a luxury car.
And Caprice is but one of the new Chevrolets.
There are 45 in all: pictured below
(left to right) are the 1972 Monte Carlo, Chevelle,
Nova, Camaro and Vega.
Altogether, a lot of diversity. So there’s
bound to be a Chevrolet just right for you, your
family, your budget and your kind of driving.
Whatever your choice, we want your new
Chevrolet to be the best car you ever owned.
No less.

Three Types Of Men

The first man to consider is the Natural Man. "But the
natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for
they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them,
because they are spiritually discerned.” I Cor. 2:14. This man
is certainly not a Christian for he refuses the things of God as if
they were just foolishness. The Word of the Lord speaks to us
saying, “it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save
them that believe.” I Cor. 1:21.

I’m quite sure that many of you folk that read this article are
already coavinced that the preaching of the Gospel of Jesus Christ
and the things pertaining to the Christian life are just plain foolish. If
this is your attitude concerning the things of the Lord, you need to
become aware of what Jesus has said in His word. Jesus said con­
cerning a man with this attitude, that he was like a man who built his
house upon the sand. When the rains came and the floods came his
house fell. He called this man a foolish man. It was the psalmists who
said, ‘’The fool has said in his heart, no God! ” I wonder if you are one
of these people who have refused to have God ruling over your life. It
might be well to remember that the floods and rains areeoming and
it won’t be the Gospel of Christ that seems foolish.

The next man is the spiritual man. This is the man that is rightly
related to God through faith in Jesus Christ. The spiritual man has
the Holy Spirit dwelling in him, filling him, leading him, teaching
him, empowering him. Through the new birth eternal life has been
imparted to him and now Jesus Christ is his very life.

The spiritual man has a threefold relationship to his Lord which is
manifested in his character, in his conversation, and in his conduct.
The spiritual man has accepted Christ as his Saviour. The spiritual
man has yielded to Christ as his Lord. The spiritual man has ap­
propriated Christ as his life.
The last man with which I shall deal is the Carnal Man. I
Cor. 3:1-4. The Carnal Man is a Christian and is rightly related
to Jesus Christ as far as salvation is concerned. He has the
Holy Spirit dwelling in him, but is constantly grieving because
of sin in his life. The carnal man has been renewed through
Christ but is still a babe in Christ.* He sits at the table of the
Lord and drinks only milk, he has no appetite nor capacity for
the meat of the word.

"Is not the LORO your GOD with yea?

The carnal man lives a life partly unto God and partly unto him­
self. The Lord Jesus is really at the center of his life but “the old
man” is usually on the throne of his life. The carnal man is in a
miserable condition and his life is one of defeat and discouragement,
often one of despair. This condition is due to ignorance of the deep
things of God, unwillingness to yield himself unreservedly to the
Lord Jesus Christ, and unbelief in appreciating Christ with all his
graces and gifts.
We have been before God’s mirror. Have you seen yourself? Are
you a Natural man, a Spiritual man, or a Carnal man? Please don’t
leave God out of your plans, you need Him!

Cedar Creek Bible Church
The Cedar Creek Bible Church was begun in 1945 by the Rev. Ben
Hescot with a congregation of about 30 people.

At that time the meetings were held in the old Doud School
building. In 1946 the old Cedar Creek school building was acquired. It
was remodeled and set on anew foundation in 1947.

The Rev. Elmer Deal, of the Rural Bible Mission was of great help
during those -days of building and change.
The next pastor of the church was the Rev. Paul Deal (now pastor
of the GullLake Bible Church) under whose ministry the
congregation grew and prospered.
Over the course of the years two additions have been made to the
original building, giving members an attractive place of worship
with a warm informal atmosphere.

The Cedar Creek Bible .Church is an independent Bible teaching
church, unaffiliated with any denomination or church organization.
Our purpose is:
1. To proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ as set forth in the Holy
Scriptures.

&lt;2. To lead men to make a full commitment of their lives to Jesus
Christ and to his purpose for them.
3. To Instruct in the daily application of the teachings and prin­
cipals of the Scriptures.

Our Pastor
Pastor Brent Branham accepted the call to come as pastor in
September of 1970. He is a graduate of the Appalachian Bible In­
stitute of Bradley, W. Va. He served the Stanaford Road Baptist
Church, at Stanaford, W. Va., for the past seven years before coming
to Cedar Creek. He and his family reside in the parsonage located
across from the church, and is available at all times to serve you.

He was presented the Bronze

service’ in connection with
military operations against
hostile forces in Vietnam. The
medal,
adopted
in
1944,
recognizes outstanding
achievement.
.

award while assigned as a

Barry Corn Good
Barry County’s 1971 com yield
will be better than average while
final reports from major
Michigan
corn
producting
countries indicate that per 6acre
corn yields will be slightly below
normal.
Agricultural Agent James W.
Pelhem said "we were in the
Garden of Eden” compared to
other countries, and got rain
when it was vitally needed.
He added that the yield
probably isn't as good as it was in
1970, and there was a reduction in
plant production because of lack
of moisture in the Spring.
According to scientists at the
Michigan State University Com
Blight Information Center, this
general yield reduction was due
to the unusally dry season rather
than leaf blight diseases. Total
yields for the State?, however, will
be about equal to last year, and
no shortage of corn is an­
ticipated.
Leaf bright causing organisms
were
widely
distributed
throughout the Slate this year,
and are still present in all com
producing areas even though
there hasn’t been any danger of
reduced yields due to blight since
the first week in September.
The harvest of com for grain
lias been underway in many
areas of the State, especially
where grain drying facilities are
available. Harvest for com silage
is nearing completion in most
areas.

Note for Coho Fishermen
The lake Survey Center cautions Coho fishermen that depths
shown on their Lake Survey Center charts are based on a fixed
elevation and are not the actual depths. Lake level information
is released each Thursday afternoon. The weekly reports
assume calm conditions. Strong winds over a long stretch and
for a sustained period lend to tilt the level of a lake. Thus a lake
can be higher on one side or end than it is on the other.

Woodstock scene is strictly
amateur night when compared
with Le Mans, France.
Over 500,000 people from all
coSrners of the world flock to the
area every year for the famous
French racing cAompetitiAon
over 8Mt miles of track. And using
this scene as j^ackdropf Stive
McQueen, Hollywood star and
also one of the best car racers in
the world (he placed second in
last years' grueling Sebring 12­
Hour Endurance run) set out to
film a movie of the men, women,
and machines for the big theatre
screen entitled simply, “LE
MANS.”
McQueen, a man who has

always approached life as if it
were a head-Aon duel, assembled
45 of the world’s fastest drivers
and 25 top racing cars including
Porache 917’s and Ferrari 512's
with speed capacities of over 200
miles an hour for the shooting.
However, car and driver have
always been but a part of the
action at Le Marts. And it was the
throngs of people, the gibranl
faces, the spectacular fashions,
and the thrilling drama McQueen
knew he must include if the film
was to meet artistic success.
The movie opens locally
Thursday at ye olde Strand
Theatre affording everyone a
glimpse of McQueen's effort with
and intimate look at a French
town that has give n the world hot

�Honor Judge’s Memory
Members of the Barry and Eaton County Bar Associations
held a ceremony at the Courthouse in Charlotte honoring the
njemory of the late Horace K. Powers.
The resolution, presented by the former Judge Archie D.
McDonald, follows:
Horace K. Powers was born at Nashville, Barry County,
Michigan, on October 5,1910, and departed this life on June 18.
1971. He is survived by his widow. Mabel Powers and two
children, a son - Joseph Powers of Bucyrus. Ohio, and a
daughter - Mrs. Martha Schimmelpfenheg of Battle Creek,
Michigan, and five grandchildren.
He attended the Nashville grade schools and graduated
from Nashville High School in 1928. In 1928 he entered the
College of Literature, Science and the Arts of the University of
Michigan, from which he graduated in 1932 with the degree of
Bachelor of Arts. In 1932 he entered the Law School of the
University of Michigan, from whichhe graduated in 1935 with
the degree of L. L. B.
Following his graduation in 1935 he became associated in
the practice of law with the late Governor Kim Sigler at
Hastings, Michigan, where he gained a wide experience
throughout the State in many fields of law, both civil and
criminal.
In 1940 he joined Mr. Sigler in a partnership, which con­
tinued until his entry into the United States Military Service in
the U.S. Navy, where he served as Lieutenant Junior Grade.
He served in the Pacific area in an “Attach Force" unril the
surrender of Japan and the close of the war.
Following his discharge from the service in 1945, he
returned to Hastings and opened his own law office, as Mr.
Sigler had become the Grand Jury Prosecutor for Ingham
County and later Governor of the State.
Horace was an officer of the Michigan Mutual Windstorm
Company of Hastings and attorney for that company.
In 1946 he was appointed to the Fitness and Qualifications
Committee of the State Bar, on which be served until the time
of his death.
In 1957 he moved to Charlotte and entered a partnership
with Richard J. Shaull, which partnership continued until his
election in 1968 to the office of District Judge for the 56th
District of Michigan and served in that capacity until his
death.
He early exhibited a keen analytical mind and a special
aptitude for the law, with the ability to quickly grasp the basic
issue of a problem, to which he applied a rare practical sense,
combined with an understanding of his fellow man. His wide
experience in the practice and his compassion for his fellow
man and good judgment particularly fitted him for the office of
District Judge in which he served with distinction.
He will be greatly missed by his fellow members of the Bar

and his community which he served so well.
Now, Therefore, as a testimonial to his memory by the
members of the Bar of the 5th Judicial Circuit of Michigan and
the 56th Judicial District of Michigan, I move, on behalf of
your Committee and the members of the Bar, that the sen­
timents herein expressed be placed in the permanent records
of the Court and a copy forwarded to Mrs. Mabel Powers and a
copy to each of his children.

FABRIC-LAND WINNERS-One of Hastings1 newest
businesses, Fabric- Land, held a Grand Opening Last Weel and
many, many people from many communities visited the large
downtown store which features the finest of merchandise.
Winners of the Grand Opening prizes were ( left to right ):
Mrs. Gerald Page of Middleville, who won second prize and the
sewing basket; Mrs, Nels Johnson of Woodland, who received
electric shears as the first prize, and Rosie Scott of R3 Mid­
dleville, a fine young lady who won a cutting board as the
fourth prize. The third prize winner, Geraldine Johnson of
Nashville, was not abailable when the picture was taken. She
won a knitting bag.-Banner photo

A total of 1,207 persons had free
X-rays taken here last week
when the TB Association of
Calhoun County had its mobile
unit set up at Reahm Motot Sales.
Association leaders-*hope to
provide this free X-ray service
here each May or June.
The Calhoun association is no
longer connected with the State
organization, and will issue a
Christmas Seal of its own this
year.
Officers explained that the
policy was adopted because the
National and State Anti- TB
Associations issued a new policy
eliminating direct services.
These included the free chest Xrays, breathing capacity tests
and others.
Calhoun’s directors believe
that their contributors desire the
continuation of these services,
and want to add Barry and
Branch Counties to their area
and provide the same services
here.
Chest X-rays show TB damage,
lung cancer and enlarged heart
for the family physician to check.
Barry residents are to receive
new Blue Seals this year.
"Come, join us and receive
sone benefits for your Christmas
Seal dollars,” the directors said.

Michigan livestock feeders this
year have some good reasons to
buy ahead on Fall and Winter feed
needs, according to Donald A.
Shepard,
feeds
department
manager for Farm Bureau Ser­
vices.
"Grain prices have recently
fluctuated due to the present
economic situtation and its
possible effects upon feed prices
after the present freeze period
ends.
"Swine, dairy, beef and poultry
feeders may be wise to place or­
ders early for future needs if they
are to avoid possible price swings
later in the Winter”, Shepard
advises.

Centennial
Farm In
Thornapple
A farm owned by Mrs. Mary E.
Potts, 311 E. Main Street, Mid­
dleville, has been designated as a
Centennial
Farm
by
the
Michigan
Historical
Com­
mission.
The farm, located in Thor­
napple Township, has been in the
possession of the family since
1870.
It was originally purchased
November 25, 1870 by Charles
McQueen, grandfather of the
present owner, from Amariah F.
Cushman.
Secretary of State Richard H.
Austin, who heads the Michigan
Department of State which
directs activities of the Michigan
Historical Commission, said the
Centennial Farm program in
Michigan was inaugurated in
1948. Since that time, certificates
and metal markers have been
awarded to some 3,000 Michigan
farms.

in each step of the salary schedule.
The new beginning salary for a
bachelor degree teacher will be
17,650.
Maximum salaries for teachers
with 10 years of experience, and
depending on college degrees, will
range for $10,710 to $12,409, with
most teachers at the lower figure.
The new salaries will become
effective as soon as the 90 day
wage and price freeze ends.
Much of the
negotiation
discussion centered on teacher
evaluation and accountability. The
new contract calls for a thorough
study to be made this school year
to specifically define teacher job
descriptions and responsibilities at
all grade levels and to develop
criteria for more effective teacher
evaluation. The contract further
states that the accountability
criteria developed will be im­
plemented into the salary schedule
for 1972-73 school year.
The district is awaiting action on
its application for funds under the
Federal Emergency Employment
Act - 1971. If funds are approved
several teacher aids will be hired
to supervise small study halls at
the high school. Persons interested
in such positions are asked to
complete applications at the
Superintendent’s office in Lake
Odessa.

Personal
Mrs. Dean Dingman and
daughter. Angelique, of Syracuse,
N. Ym, flew here to visit her
parents, the W. O. Colemans, and
others for three weeks while Dean
was in New York City, on business.
He also spent a few days here and
his family accompanied him home.

Anywhere else we wouldn't have a
thing to say to each other. But here
In the woods It Is different.
Like the last time our family was
out. Before you knew It the circle
around our campfire contained a re­
tired Insurance man and his wife. A
factory foreman. A doctor and his
daughter. None of us had met be­
fore. But we talked half the night.
I guess that's really what started
our family camping. And keeps us
coming back. There aren't any
strangers In the woods, and we*
really like that.
Sure, there are some things we
don't like, too. Dirty restrooms.
Overcrowded campgrounds. Lack of
recreation facilities. But we always
thought they were part of the price.
Until we joined Sandy Pines. Now
we have a guaranteed campsite.
Winter or summer. Private. Se­
cluded. But close enough to other
campers tor those long gabfests.

The land Is rolling and wooded.
800 acres around a beautiful 200
acre lake with sandy beaches. Rest­
rooms and showers are heated and
Immaculate. An0 there Is always
something doing. At the lodge. At
the pavllllon. Atxfozens of mini rec­
reation centers scattered all over
the campground.
Square dances. Swimming in the
lake or the heated pool. Tennis.
Boating. Fishing. Water skiing. Teen
center. A full time recreation dlreq,tor makes sure things don't lag.
If Sandy Pines sounds Interesting
to you, you're probably our kind of
people. Fill out the coupon or drive
out to see us. We'll Invite you to
camp with us for a weekend.

Welch said, “Administration and

position where I must work full­
time as a zoning enforcer,
leaving little, if any, time for

book, “The News Twisters” (Nash Publishing Co., Los Angeles).
Miss Efron’s studies were concerned not with the paid advertising
that is a part of any political campaign, but rather the news casts put
out by the nedworks, themselves.
As a result of her research, Miss Efron came up with well
documented facts to support the following conclusions:
Tlie nedtowks actively opposed the Republican candidate,
Richard Nixon, in his run for the presidency.”
“The networks actively favored the Democratic candidate,
Hubert Humphrey."
To bolster these conclusions Miss Efrem pointed out that during
the seven-week presidential campaign, ABC spoke 869 words
favorable for Nixon and 7,483 against him; CBS 320 for Nixon, 5,300
against him; NBC 431 words for Nixon and 4,234 against him.
While ABC was giving 869 wor^/friendly to Nixon, it was
devoting 4,218 words friendly to Humphrey; CBS and NBC gave in
about the same ratio.
Networks havefthe right to editorial opinion, just as do the

What types of people live in
mobile homes? Retirees, newly
married people, people of limited
income who cannot obtain a
home mortgage. What kind of
people live in homes constructed
of new and unconventional
materials? Innoovative people,
creative people.
These are the people that
cannot live in Yankee Springs

To Resurface
Streets In
Nashville
Brumm Road. Kellogg and
Phillip streets will receive prime
and double seal coats yet this
Fall in Nashville. The cobl will be
about $13,000. Other street work
will have to wait until next year
because of the financial picture.
The Nashville, council Thur­
sday. Sept. 23, gave permission
. for students of Maple Valley High
to hold a parade on Main Street,
and a bonfire back of Main street
stores, for the homecoming
football game on Friday, Oct. 15.

The Federal Water Resources
Commission suggested that*
Nashville refile its request for
money in 1973 to extend water
and sewer lines.
Ernest Tiechout, a real estate
agent from Lansing, and William
Schantz. Maple Grove Super­
visor. explained plans for a
mobile home park just outside
Nashville. According to Tiechout
he has a buyer for the former
Dryfoos property of about 76
acres which includes Lake One
for $750,000 for the mobile home­
development. One third lies in
Maple Grove township, the rest
in Castleton. The two men feel
that the property would lend
itself nicely to mobile home area
because of its topography.
However, there are some 18
persons who live close to the
property who do not share their
enthusiasm and Thursday night
stated their position in writing to
the council.
Richard Welch of the Barry
County Zoning Commission has
asked both the Maple Valley
school board and village officials
for their reactions to the project.
It is possible to have up to 250
mobile homes in the develop­
ment. which might present
problems on classroom area. The
Nashville council has no legal
jurisdiction over the proposed
project. However, there could be
policing problems. There are
many things to be considered.

Certainly if a person, or per­
sons, is willing to invest $750,000
in properly so close to Nashville,
and perhaps invest another
$250,000, or more to develop the
site, careful consideration must
be given by governing bodies in
the area. It is understood that
representatives will visit the
school board meeting to explain
the project.
Nashville is considering the
purchase of 100 acres of land west
to update their sewage disposal
plant. The land in question has
been appraised, but all of the
land owner? have not been
contacted. The study will be
continued.

The bride, given by her father, wore an empire gown of crepe.
The lace bodice, fashioned with long sleeves and soft tucks, fell from

line skirt was also accented with an insertion of lace interwoven with
ribbon. Her floor-length veil was of silk illusion and she carried a
cascade of white mums and yellow roses.

print was of yellow, orange and brown flowers over a yellow un­
derlining and was in empire styling with long sleeves and a ruffle at
the neck and sleeves. She carried a long-stemmed yellow rose. The
bridesmaids were the Misses Cathie, Debbie and Mary Haskin,
sisters of the bride, and Miss Sue Schroeder, who were dressed
identically with the matron of honor. Liza Key Haskin, sister of the
bride, was the flower girl, and Tim Jandernoa, son of Mr. and Mrs.
Dick Jandernoa, was the ringbearer.
The best man was the groom's brother, Bruce Teachworth of St.
Johns, and the ushers were Allen, Chris and David Haskin, brothers
of the bride, and Dale Reed.
Mr. and Mrs. Dick Haddix were the master and mistress of
ceremonies, and Miss Sue Jackson was at the guest book. Others
assisting at the reception were the Misses Sally Hazel, Nancy Brooks,
Pat Blessing, and Linda, Annette and Joyce Jandernoa, Mrs. Max

THE 4-H CLUB
The 4-H Club has demon­
strafed throughout the years its
ability to teach our young people
the value of leaning-thru-doing.
The youngsters pictured on
this page are but a sampling,
although very typical, of those
many Barry County area young
people who are inspired to amazing
goals.

It takes hard work, dedication, a sense of values, fair
play and a conscientious attitude. Stir in a great deal of
pride and we have the ingredients for success.
The Hastings Banner joins with the fine sponsors on

senior,
Beth
Christensen, recently received
an Outstanding Speaker award
for competition in the Student
Congress in Lansing. This is the
second year Beth has placed
among the top ten speakers at
this event.
The
participants
began
preparation for the Student
Congress by entering a spring
discussion group held at Western
Michigan University. Out of
approximately 60 students who
attended the day-long activities,
about 30 qualified to go on to the
state competition.
The students were split into 10
different committees in Lansing.
Beth was elected chariman of her
committee. In their groups the
students wrote bills to be
presented to the congress. Each
group was given eight minutes to
explain the advantages of their
bills. Two judges observed the
activities to decide which ten
students were the most ex­
ceptional speakers.
The competition, held Sep­
tember 24 and 25, was attended
by 133 high school students from
the state.
After qualifying, Beth and her
sister, Lisa, went to the House of
Representatives chambers in
Lansing, where Mr. Ryan,
Speaker of the House, cordially
welcomed them.

Lakewood FFA Makes Cider
By April filler
Last week was apple cider time
for the Lakewood Future Far­
mers of America chapter.
The mertibers, all boys except
one girl, Sharon Brodbeck,
pickedup tray apples wherever
they could be found and hauled
them off to the Conklins Cider
Mill near Charlotte.
When it was over the boys had
about 778 gallons of cider that
they put in gallon jugs and sold.
"We could have sold 1,000
gallons," adviser Ron Stevens
said. "We sold all of it this year to
the FFa members.”
■
Stevens said not a gallon was
left over and the money earned

would go toward buying jackets
for members of the FFA Chapter.
The cider project went off
without a hitch this year although
the boys did run short of caps for
the gallon jugs that the members
saved up all year long.
"A quick trip for some clean
corn cobs at the local elevator
solved that problem," Stevens
said.
Heading the cider project were
Jeff Baker and Tom Sprague.
Bringing in the most apples were
Sharon and Terry Brodbeck with
40 bags of apples. Roger Conley
and Rick Stowell each brought in
a big pickup full.

Neuvo! It’s new! Maple
Valley’s newest organization,
being advised by Miss Laurie
Kendrick, is the Spanish Club.
Thirty members attended the
first meeting and discussed
future plans,including dances or
parties with pinadas, Spanish
movies,
trips to Spanish
restaurants and a Christmas
special.
Members
include
students from all Spanish
classes.

Turmoil On Stage
The stage will become a wild
turmoil when “The Boarding
House Reach," is presented by
the senior class on November 18
and 19.
Directed by Mrs Greta Firster, the play contains a cast of
16, which will be double-cast. The
plot shows Wilbur, begging for a
new bicycle, realizing he will
only get it by earning It himself.
When his parents take a
vacation, Wilbur decides to open
a boarding house, and encounters
many hysterical happenings.
Besides play practice, seniors
will be involved in advertising,
arranging scenery, and ticket
selling the next two months.

Seniors Exceed Quota
8y Bob Bennett

The Lakewood High School
seniors have out-done their own
expectations as well as those of
previous classes during their
recent magazine sales. Bill
Smith, class president, and
Cheryl Wilson, magazine sales
chairman, reported a total sales
of $4,793.06, well exceeding the
goal of $4,100. This total
represents an increase of $1,000
over last year's seniors. This
year seniors out-sold all previous
^classes by approximately $700.
'
“It
was
quite
an
ac­
complishment" Smith remarked.
"The general response from the
public was surprising and the
teacher’s response was ex­
traordinary."
The top saleswoman and
overall sales champ, Nancy
Offley, netted $250. During the
final weekend drive the top
salesman, Cliff Mattson, shocked
everyone with a whopping $102
sale in just two days. It’s felt that
the strobe lignt Cliff was
presented for hes acheivement
offered some incentive.

ride them at all!"
Smith’s staff consisted of
Cheryl Wilson, Connie Colegrove
and David Beach. Team Captains
were Bill Bowen, Kathi Booher,

' Little Johnny was disturbing
the other children in sdiool,
pretending he was riding a
motorcycle, and making sounds
like one taking off, *‘Udn-n, udn,
udn!” Finally the teacher
scolded, “Johnny, stop that!”
“O.K. teacher, scr-e-e-ch!”
Boys will be boys. And most of
the time they’re not just
pretending. They can be pretty
rough - riding, running, jum­
ping, kicking, and all the other
things boys do.
Pretty rough on shoes, too.
That’s why they need good
tough shoes, well constructed to
take the punishment, and snap
right back with a quick coat of
polish for school or church. Our
children’s shoes are like that,
and will be expertly fitted for
the longest, most comfortable
wear possible ■ very important
for young, active growing feet.
Bring you child in next time he
needs shoe-ing.

In 1960, Chrysler, Ford aqd GM entered the compact field.
Many Americans wanted smaller cars. For their low price.
Economy. Ease of driving and parking. For
several years, Corvair, Falcon and
Valiant met these needs and
did quite nicely, thank you.

There's a lot that's
Valiant in all our cars.

Survival of the fittest.
Over the years, however,
something happened.
Buyers became disen­
chanted. Corvair eventually
closed up shop in the late '60's.
Falcon soon followed suit.
«,
One car didn’t. Of the three, it'slhe
only one left. Plymouth Valiant.
We think that says a lot about the kind of
cars we sell.

Trial and not muoh error.
Today's Valiant still has the values that
make a good car a great car: torsion-bar
suspension, 3-speed TorqueFlite automatic
transmission as an option, unibody
construction. And.
every Valiant is
treated by a

The point is: when we found a good
thing, we stayed with it. And where
possible, we improved it.

Along came Duster.
In 1969, we came up with a two-door
version of the Valiant, called the
Duster. Paced by Duster, Valiant has

For example, 9 out of 10 new
Chryslers registered in the last
10 years are still on the road.
It simply proves what most people
already know. When it comes to
building a car right, Chrysler-Plymouth
lives up to its reputation for great
engineering.
We think this is the kind of car America
wants—a car built to last. For the kind of
car you want, see us. We're determined to be
the kind of dealer you want, too.

ZS......... THE HASTINGS BANNER......... October 4. 1*71

"It nt tlii LORD yur GOD with jn?

AiO hit hi nt |i«n yn putt ti Mirj sift?'

Editorial 8f
Rev. Russell Houseman
As we view the list of the dif­
ferent denominations today, it is
no wonder that the average in­
dividual would ask the question,
what's it all about and wny can't
the churches get together and
agree. Why does each church
think it is right and the others
wrong? Not only are there many
different denominations, but
there are many different kinds of
so called Baptist. Many Baptist
churches no longer hold to the
Bibical historic faith. Many also
ask, which was the first church?
These are all good honest
questions. We would answer the
first church was built upon the
foundation of the apostles and
prophets, Jesus Christ himself
being the chief corner stone. Eph
2:20. So we would expect to find
the rules the methods and the
practices of the church in the
Bible.
The regular old fashioned
Baptist stand for a divinely in­
spired infallible Bibld. We
believe that the Holy Bible was
written by men, supernaturally
inspired: that it is truth.without
any admixture of error for its
matter: and therefore is, and
shall remain the only complete
and final revelation of the will of
God to man: the colter of
Christian union and the supreme
standard by which all human
conduct, creeds and opinions
should be tried.
By the Bible we mean that
collection of sixty six books, from
Genesis to Revelation, which as
originally written does not
contain and convey the word of
God. BUT IS THE VERY WORD
OF GOD. We believe that many
of the modem translation^ of the
Bible are the works of Satan, to
twist the true meaning ot
Scripture: by men who do not
believe in the virgin birth of
Christ and His atoning death on
the cross.
By inspiration we mean that
the books of the Bible were
written by holy men of old, as
they were moved by the Holy
Spirit, so that their writings were
the actual words of God. That the
Holy scriptures are a sufficient
rule of faith and practice in all
matters of Christian life. They
determine both creed and con­
duct of the child of God. We do not
need traditions, but "Thus Saith
The Lord." We believe tjie
scriptures contain the only
message of salvation to man.
Being born again, not of
corruptable seed, but of incorruptable, by the word of God
which liveth and abidelh forever.
1 Peter 1:23.
Old fashioned Baptist believe
in the individual responsibility of
the soul to God. Every individual
is responsible to and capable of
dealing with God Directly
through the one mediator Jesus
Christ our Lord 1 Tim. 2:5. We
recognize Christ as the head of
the Church, He is supreme. There
is no ecclesiastical authority
between a Baptist and the Lord
Jesus Christ. No presiding
elders, no ecclesiastical official
or body has any authority over a
Baptist Church.
Each Baptist church is an
independent unit, the local
church is responsible UT no one
but the great head of the church,
the Lord Jesus Christ. We are
linked together with other
churches of like precious faith,
for the preaching of the gospel,
for schools and mission, etc.
We believe that two ordinances
were given to the New Testament
church. Which are baptism and
the Lord’s supper. They are not
sacraments, which means they
have saving efficacy in them: but
they were commanded of the
Lord to set forth the gospel, of the
death, burial and resurrection of
the Lord Jesus. We believe that
only those who have believed in
and have accepted Christ as Lord
and Savior have the right to
receive baptism (which it-Jmmersion in water) and the Lord’s
supper.
Old fashion Baptist believe in

The Hastings Baptist Church
HISTORY OF THE HASTINGS BAPTIST CHURCH

October 18,1868 marked the first meeting of Baptists in Hastings.
The Rev. E. Curtis led this first gathering in the Court House
building, in Hastings. In March of 1871 the church purchased the
property on Court Street, where worship services are still held. The
present building hardly resembles its original structure of 1886 after
so many remodeling jobs.
In October of 1909, when numerous churches were beginning to
deny that the Bible is God’s Word to sinful men, in need of salvation,
the church took an official stand against “liberalism” in theology and
in practice. Then in October of 1920, when the majority of Baptist
churches were going to the liberal interpretation, denying the Bible
as God’s Word, and the basic need of all men to be saved from the
penalty of sin, the church in Hastings again, along with the majority
of Baptist churches in Grand Rapids separated from the liberal
Baptist, and formed a new group called the General Association of
Regular Baptist Churches (GARBO to carry on the old fundamentals
of the faith.
The Rev. Russell Houseman was called to the pulpit in 1951, when an
average attendance had dwindled to less than thirty. With his drive
and leadership, he has led the church through several building
campaigns, and an increase of attendance with a peak attendance of
578 on Rally Day, Sept. 12, 1971.
The church owns property and a bus garage on Woodlawn Ave., and
members are seriously planning for a new church building on this
property in the near future. Sunday School busses pick up many
children in all directions from Hastings to bring them in to hear the
Gospel and to study God's Word.
Our services are Broadcast on WBCH radio live from the church at
11:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. each Sunday.
The church also is greatly concerned for its younc people and for
reaching this younger generation. For the past three years Mr.
Robert Welch and wife, Nancy, have led our young people to greater
spiritual experiences andiin witnessing of the peace that only Christ
can fulfill in their lives.
The church has a real burden for missions with a large portion of
the annual budget going for missionary support around the world.

absolute separation of Church
and State, to render unto Caescr
the things that are Caesers, and
unto God the things that are
God's. We believe the Bible
teaches that we should be loyal to
our country and flag Romans 13­
1. And under God to defend our
country for that which is right. As
those who love the Lord we
should be interested in our
community, in our schools, being
in the world yet not part of it in its
evil.
So our business in this com­

munity is the preaching of the
gospel, seeking to win the lost for
the Lord Jesus Christ and to
teach the word of God: so that
those who do know Christ aS
Saviour may grow in the
knowledge of God. We are here to
\give help and spiritual counsel to
all who desire help. We broadcast
both our morning and evening
services over W.B.C.H. at 11:00
a m. and 7:00 p.m.

To Organize
4H Dog Club
Thursday, Oct. 14
The 4H Dog Project is a
comprehensive program
designed to enable each boy and
girl
enrolled
to
develop
proficiency in basic phases of dog
work. They assume complete
responsibility for care and
training of their dogs over a
considerable period of time.
One of the most important
Kases of 4H work is leaching
ys and girls to raise and un­
derstand animals. For many of
the ill youth not living on farms,
animal husbandry projects are
not possible, so the Dog Project
has an appeal for urban as well
as rural youth.
The 4H Dog Project has been
active in Barry County for over
10 years and each year it grows
and grows, making ‘belter dog
neighbors" and keeping the
4H*ers busya nd occupied with
their dog.
The first meeting this Fall will
be an organizational meeting
that will be held at the 411 Youtn
Center at Algonquin Lake at 7 on
Oct. 14th. Any youth (with or
without a dog) may enroll. Come
with a parent and learn what it’s
all about. Fpr more information
call 945-5064 or the 4H Extension
Office, 945-5121.

�Maple Valley Not Quite
To Improve Chain Reaction
Class Loads

RECOVER LOOT-Barry County Deputy Sheriff checks the beer
wine and other articles which were recovered after being stolen from
Goodner’s Grocery Store on M-43 southwest of Hastings. Stolen was
beer valued at J86.4S, a 12-pound roll of cheesd- worth J1O.SO plus
other merchandise

In a special meeting of the
Maple Valley School board Sept.
27, plans were made to qualify for
$44,000, in more school aid for
this school year.
The money will be used to hire
more teachers so as to reduce the
number of children in the third,
fifth and sixth grade classes;
provide supplementary teaching
materials and books, and to lease
five portable classrooms.
Two additional teachers are to
be hired, and adjustments will be
made for others already on the
staff
to
improve classes ”
especially in remedial reading
and arithmetic. Two of the
portable classrooms will be used
at Maplewood in Vermontville
and two at the Fuller Street I
Schoo] and one at the Kellogg
school in Nashville.
Stanford Achievement tests
will be given all 1,075 children in
kindergarten through the sixth
grades.
The Section 3 monies are of­
fered on a three-year basis, with
$44,000 provided this year, and up
to 100 percent next year
providing the results of this
year’s work merit the renewal.
Otherwise, the percentage can be
reduced by the State. The tests
will be given the children,
hopefully, by October 1, and the
relocatable classrooms will be
placed as soon as possible.

An accident which occurred at
12:10a.m. Tuesday, Sept. 28, was
indirectly responsible for another
one about 50 minutes later, ac­

Woodworker Makes
People Happy
by Patricia O'Brian
There's a 70 year old man in
Nashville who makes people
happy year around, but who
seems particularly like one of
Santa’s busy elves now, happily
filling orders to delight both child
and parent at Christmas.
Wallace W. Planck, who began
his Old Fashion Country Craft
Shop 17 years ago as a hobby, has
created everything from jumping
jacks to baby cradles in wood,
designing and building anything
people desire.
"I do upholstering, repair
work, cabinets of all kinds, gun
racks and cases, children's
furniture and I mount deer
horns," he said. "Oh, I can t
remember what all, but I’ve
made everything that came into
my head."
If you happen to walk into his
shop at IMS. Main St., Nashville,
and start talking with him,
Planck may tease you with a
couple of gimmicks he has made.
One. called a "yip stick," is a
thin, rounded piece of wood about
eight inches long with about five
notches on it. At one end, connected by a wooden tack, is
another snort, flat piece of wood,
giving the total impression of a
propeller.
Planck will tell you that the
only way to get the propeller
turning is to rub the long stick
with another short one, and say
"yip". Then, everytime you say
“yip" again, the propeller will
turn in the opposite direction.
However, after you rub the
notches flat and your mouth is
drv from the constant repetition
of "yip", Planck laughingly
shows you how the propeller is
rotated by applying different
pressures with the thumb and
forefinger.
He may uIso pull-out a "Bull
Grinder" while you art talking
and spin the arrow. ft-tfill land on
a spot marked poor. fair,
medium or good, which rates
your conversation's degree of
"bull ". Planck says people often
buy the grinder for parlies.
Some of the more serious items
which Planck has on display in
his shop or which he will snow
you in nis advertising brochure
are children’s furniture. They
include a. davenport with mat­
ching base rocker, a natural
finish pine buffet, a while birch
doll cradle, a base rocker and
ottoman and toy china cabinets.
Planck demonstrated the
sturdiness of the furniture by
placing his 200 pound frame on a
small rocker and moving it back
and forth. He said that all his
upholstering is done with foam
rubber and naugahyde, and he is
firmly set against using any
plastics.
"Whenever those plastics
salesmen come around," he said,
"I just tell them I’m not in­
terested and show them the
door Naugahyde is better, it lasts
longer."
■'
The retired woodworker said,
that although he doesn’t drink
beer anymore, he .accepted the
job of making arm rests at^ local
bar for the people who do. He has
also built counter tops for area
restaurants.
"I guarantee all the work I do,”
Planck said. "If 1 do a job and it
breaks or if there is any fault in
the materials, I fix it free of
charge.”

located all over the country, with
several in Florida, Illinois, In­
diana and Ohio.
“I have more than seven
custpmers who come every year
from Ohio." he said.
Planck was born in Harbor
Springs in 1901 and as a young
boy he "cruised" timber with his
&gt; father in the Upper Peninsula. He
ran lines through the* limber to
mark where the lumberjacks
could cut it.
He then worked for a railroad
supply company in Chicago for
eight years, after which he
moved to Kalkaska, where he
made unbreakable wooden
Christmas tree ornaments. In
1927 lie returned to the Unner
Peninsula where he guided
hunters.
He lived for 22 years in
Hulbert, Mich, where he ran lhe
J. Shepard Parrish woodworking
mill, with 103 employees working
for him. He became tired of the
mill because the logging industry

NASHVILLE WOODWORKER
was slowing down and wooden
items were being imported from
Japan, so business was slow.
In 1947 he came to Nashville,
where he was a foreman for three
and one half years at the Lentz
Table Factory, until it closed. He

then worked as a pattern maker
in Battle Creek for three years,
before he joined the Grand
Rapids Bookcase Company (The
Hastings
Corporation)
in
Hastings, from which he retired
in 1969.

Love is a term used in tennis. And a part of
Sandy Pines. Love of the outdoors,
active outdoors. With basketball and
volleyball. Horseshoes. Trails to hike on.
And snowmobile on. Swimming, both
outdoors and indoors. That’s what makes

an important part of Sandy Pines; the
country club for campers. An activity
center. Private. Secluded. Yet with like
minded people close by when active
moods strike. Boating. Water skiing.
With a full time recreation director to keep
the activity moving.
A teen center where \E^gu*o

Planck said that he could ex­
pand his business because one
company would buy everything
he makes, but he doesn’t want to
hire help.

"I’m supposed to be retired
and I’m tired every minute," he
said. "Why would I want to get
involved in something like that?"

"Hedori’t make a big profit," a
friend sitting in the ?'hop said,
"but it’s occupying his time."
Planck says his customers are

‘Gift Of Christmas ’ Will
Highlight ‘Super Saturday’
“It should be one of the most
spectacular Christmas parades
we have ever had,’’ beamed Bob
Johnson, manager of the
Hastings Area Chamber of
Commerce, as he discussed
preparations
for
“Super K
Saturday.’’
This year’s parade, sponsored
by the Chamber of Commerce, is
taking a new twist, according to
Johnson. "It will be held on
Saturday afternoon, December 4
at 1:30,’’ he said and added this
will differ from previous years
when the parade was on a week
night.
“We feel it will make it easier
for families to attend an af­
ternoon parade as well as a few
degrees warmer,” Johnson
noted.
But the parade, with all its
floats, excitement and en­
thusiasm, is only a portion of the
day’s activities. Appropriately
labeled “Super Saturday,” the
festivities begin at 10 a.m. with a
childrep’s program in the west
gynasium of the Junior High
School.
Television personality Deputy
Dave from Lansing win present
an hour long “Al E. Khatt”
Christmas program starring
several of his program’s
characters. Following at about
12:15, members from area
church choirs, under the
direction of Adam Offenbecker,
will assemble on the Courthouse
lawn to present a festive
'arrangement of traditional
Christmas Carols.
Highlighting “Super Saturday”
at 1:30 is the annual (►hristmas
Parade, “The Gift of Christ­
mas.”
Beginning at E. State Street
and Boltwood, the participants,
including bands, floats and
special surprises, will step off
their seven block trek along State
Street through downtown and end

at the fairgrounds. Floats will be
on display for about an hour.
Following the parade, retail
merchants will remain open their
normal Saturday hours. In ad­
dition, plans are being for­
mulated for a special children’s
attraction in retail stores. Also,
groups of three and four carolers
will continue the holiday spirit by
visiting various stores singing
familiar Christmas tunes.
Manager Johnson points out
that anyone who wants to par­
ticipate in the parade with a float
or similar activity, should con­
tact the Chamber of Commerce
office before November 1. Let­
ters of intent have been cir­
culated to over 60 civic and
school organizations.
Johnson said he is pleased with
the enthusiasm, ideas and sup­
port he has received from the
Christmas Parade Committee.
“This group has devoted itself
to making this year’s parade one
of the most colorful, vibrant and
thrilling ever experienced in
Hastings. Total involvement has
been the key,” he explained.

normal Saturday hours. In ad­
dition, plans are being for­
mulated for a special children’s
attraction in retail stores. Also,
groups of three and four carolers
will continue the holiday spirit by
visiting various stores singing
familiar Christmas tunes.
Manager Johnson points out
that anyone who wants to par­
ticipate in the parade with a float
or similar activity, should con­
tact the Chamber of Commerce
office before November 1. Let­
ters of intent have been cir­
culated to over 60 civic and
school organizations.
Johnson said he is pleased with
the enthusiasm, ideas and sup­
port he has received from the
Christmas Parade Committee.
“This group has devoted itself
to making this year’s parade one
of the most colorful, vibrant and
thrilling ever experienced in
Hastings. Total involvement has
been the key,” he explained.

Hastings Banner:

In our opinion U.S. District Judge Stephen Roth infringed on both
legislative and executive functions of government when he ordered
the Detroit school board to report within 30 days statistics on its
voluntary integration plan; when he ordered the Detroit board to
develop within 60 days a comprehensive integration plan for schools
within the city, when he ordered the state board to develop within 120
days and integration plan that will include at least some of the
suburban school systems.
Judge Roth was well within his rights to render a verdict as to
whether or not segregation does exist in the Detroit school system.
Few, if any, will dispute his verdict that segregation does exist.
However, does ne have the right to order arbitrary time limits for
lhe solution of complex problems which, to date, have remained
unanswered even after detailed study?Does Judge Roth, or any
judge, for that matter, have authority to order the schools in
suburban areas to be drawn into a central system? Isn’t this an infringmenl of the. fight Of- communities which, althogh in the
metropolitan area, have ll)6ir own independent governments, in­
cluding school systems? lsn’t this a matter for the communities,
themselves to decide-the consent of the governed, so to speak?
If the Roth decision is confirmed by the Supreme Court (there is
likely to be an appeal) then all communities within busing distance of
a larger community can, by court order, be made to integrate into an
area system even though voters unanimously oppose such a move.
The Hastings Area School System, for example, could be compelled
10 become a part of a Battle Creek Area School System.
Should tne Rotty ruling be confirmed by the High Tribunal, then
“government by consent of the governed" will be replaced by
"government through judicial decree”-and there will be no source of
appeal, short of amending the Constitution.
American government is divided into three branches, legislative,
executive and judicial, each with its own sphere of authority to
Kovide a system of checks and balances to prevent any of the three
jm acquiring an excessive amount of authority. 'Die system has
worked out.well as far as the executive and legislative branches are
concerned. In recent years, however, the Supreme Court, and to a
lesser extent some of the lower courts, have invaded areas supposed
to be administered by lhe legislative and executive branches.
This "over extension" of authority has been possible because,
under our system, there is no check on the Supreme Court-no
authority to revoke decisions that are rightfully in the domain of the
other two branches. Such a situation is not a healthy one. Obviously
the legislative and executive branches need additional constitutional
authority.to effectively check lhe Supreme Court when the justices
attempt to move into restricted territory.
Although needed, the working of such a control will be difficult to
write without interfering with the’ legitimate functions of the
judiciary system.
Historically, the need for such a control has not been acute, since
lhe courts, from lhe Supreme Court on down have exhibited rigorous
self discipline in avoiding matters involving the rights of the
executive and legislative departments. Of late, however, Federal
courts have shown an ever-increasing tendency toward innovations
that involve outright invasions of legislative and executive functionsJudge Roth's action is the latest example.
One can only hope that his action will be over-ruled by the
Supreme Court-as it should be. If not, then some sort of restraining
action should certainly be considered.

Recently in an article printed
in the Battle Creek Enquirer and
News this question was raised: Is
the Anti-War Movement dead? I
am writing to say it is in no way
dead, but there is the sad com­
mentary . that we humans
sometimes do not seem to hear
each other, especially when we
speak from the heart. Someone
said, “The heart teaches us to
speak." But those who speak out
in heartfelt fashion against the
continuing war-making bent of
our country do not seem to be
heard, or to be’ considered

The People
seriously.
In our lime it seems to me that
lhe majority of us were told,
“Thou shall not kill." And we in
turn told our. children lhe same.
Also we promoled the Golden
Rule, as it had been promoted to
us. "Whatever you wish that men
would do to you, do so to them."
We were told and we have
repeated, "Be kind. . Jove, one
another. . .walk humbly." But
then we say, "Now we come to
Exceptions. For example, now
you arc eighteen, so take a gun,
go across the oceans and kill
people, devastate their l^nd.
incidentally, you may mutilate
their children and destroy their
homes. Our country, the State,
says you must. Do as you are
told."
The young, and some of us
older ones, cry out, but WHY?
WHY must we kill people? And
WHY does the killing go on and
on? WHY can’t we stop? Is our
great country unable to stop?
Military draft counselors ask
that recognition be granted the
right to consider this gravest of
all demands, to hand one’s life to
the State to do its bidding, in­
cluding the killing, without
Sestion. In this land of the
med Constitutional rights of
persons, the young ones and their
counselors are saying, Can you
hear us? Do you really realize
What you are doing and deciding
and demanding? Are you sure
you are right?
The asking for this kind of
attention has been going on for
years now. And mostly it seems
the response has been one of
being affronted to be asked
earnestly to think about these
things.
Are
you
possibly
disturbed that the military draft
is to be continued for at least two
more years of all our lives? Are
you interested in at least asking
Congress .40 say Yes to the
Mansfield amendment which
cajls for total U.S. withdrawal
from Indo-China within the next
six months? There may still be
this opportunity to witness to’the
will of a democracy to turn off
this war, the war which has been
widening now for ten and more
years.

where you've gotta have It. That's
where you get it. With such time- and
road-proven features as Chrysler's
torsion-bar suspension and Torque­

rigid strength of unibody construction.
And a 7-step dlp-and-spray anti-rust
process. Extra care like that Is why

This year every Chrysler car offers a

Counselors
Need Data
to Evaluate
Robert Bolton represented the
Hastings Area Regional Schools
Thursday. Sept. 30, at the
Genera) Motors Career Guidance
Conference held at the Olds
Auditorium at Lansing.
The meeting was arranged
with the cooperation of the
Michigan School Counselors
Association.
James
Mahrt,
executive
secretary of the Michigan
Guidance group, emphasized
that counselors “should make
career education a reality for all
youth.”
.
'
Mary Hamilton, director-of
guidance at Ann Arbor High
School and who has been an
advisor to schools abroad, said
that society pressures have
forced emergency sessions for a
few students rather than con­
tinuing sessions for all students.
“What we as counselors need to
maintain are records of our oneto-one contact with students as
they grow from Kindergarten
through 12th grade is to be able to
evaluate our performance in
helping the youth.”
Dr. Harold Rodes, president of _
the General Motors Institute,
said in addition to people being
certain of "death and taxes,”
they must add the idea of
"change.” He said he would
rather have change through
persuasion rather than violence.
♦JThis racing acceleration of
change compels future role
changes as well,” he said.
Unfortunately, the interest and
ability of youngsters are not
always in line and it is up (o those
working with youth to try and
bring them into a "career field
where their interests and
abilities are closely aligned,
Rodes added.
Phillip Gannon, president of
Lansing Community College who
twice has been selected as
Michigan's Community College
Administrator of the Year, said
that college degrees will lose
their importance in the face of
continuing emphasis on com­
petency and maintaining that
competency through continuous
learning through life.
He suggested that schools fill
the career needs of a community
and its industries, as well as the
desires of the students.

a 7-6 win over visiting St. Johns
last week, Waverly trounced
Alma, 46-0, while Charlotte
whipped Maple Valley, 26-0, in a
non-conference engagement.
HHS Coach Jerry Eckman,
naturally disappointed by the
loss at Grano Ledge, was
nevertheless pleased with the
fine performance of both his
offensive and defensive units.
The Saxons' Dave Haller,
Mitch St. Martin and Ed Hurley
all recovered key Grand Ledge
fumbles to stall the tough Comet
attack, and lhe entire defensive
team rose up in the first quarter
to halt the Ledgers after they
reached the Hastings* 9 after
completing their only pass of the
wet evening. The pass covered 27
yards.
Hastings took lhe ball over on
downs on their own 5.
The teams battled to a
scoreless deadlock in the first
half, Hastings running 18 plays
on the ground for 72 yards and
Grand Ledge had 24 on the
ground for an even 100 yards.

The Saxons missed the services
of Daryl Barnum, who was out
with cracked ribs. Barnum was
not expected to practice this
week but may see action before
the season is over.

A mother we know was consoling a daughter about 5 a.m. the
other day after the father inadvertently ran over the teenager s cat
while backing out in the dark to go to work. After the mom buried the
cat she went to the bedroom to comfort lhe daughter who was sobbing
her heart out. “Now, now,” mom said, “I know how bad you feel, but
relax and maybe you can get a little CAT-NAP.’’ The cap-nap just
slipped out, but it was enough to set Kathy off again! I

Citizens in the Thornapple-Kellogg School District turned out
Friday night for the dedication of the fine new athletic field adjacent
to the new T-K high school at Middleville. The pride the people of the
Middleville area nave In their educational facilities was reflected in
the attendance at lhe big game between the Trojans Widtpeir arch’
rivals, the Caledonia Scotties. Some 5,000 watched Middleville win,

21"°'a11 former Middleville coaches attended the dedication plus
Allan Bush, director of the Michigan High School Athletic
Amnciatinn
Present were Irving HolUorUi. 1931-34; David Smythe, who
coached just one year. 1935; Arthur Smalley, who coached from 1936
through 1045. and had a record of 30 wins, 16 losses and 7 ties;
Romulus Romani, 1946, a 5-2 record; Millard Engle, 1^7-51, 1^14-5;
Billy J. Hanson, 1952-61, 39 wins, 30 losses and 5 ties; and Bob White,
who took over in 1961. Up to this year While had a 62-13-4 record, after
Friday it was 66-14-4.
Since 1936, Middleville grid squads have won 155 games, lost 75
and tied 21.
The first game Middleville High played in interscholastic com­
petition was in 1931 on Keeler Park Field, located where the township
cemetery now is. No one remembers the outcome. When the T-K
district was formed in 1930, lhe new field was near the old high school
(now the middle school). Generally games were played in the af­
ternoons. Not all schools had lights then, and this gave many prep
fans an opportunity to see more than one high school game a week.
The first game under the T-K arcs was with Wayland on Sept. 26,
1947. It endedin a 6-6 lie. Caledonia spoiled the field’s dedication on
Oct. 23, shutting out Middleville 13-0. Coach White’s charges had no
intention of permitting the Scotties to do it again last week.
The worst defeat suffered by a T-K team was at the hands of
former Kalamazoo Slate High. The score was 83-0.
Thomapple-Kellogg athletes, coaches, administrators and
taxpayers have done a good job through the years. What more can
■&gt;ne say???

trains the Marine Corps Reserve Unit of MPs in Grand Rapids,
carded a hole in one on River Bend’s 13th Sunday, Sept. 26, playing in
the Moose Traveling League with the Lowell Lodge hosting the event.
Jim, who carries a nine handicap for nine holes, hit a 7 iron onto the
green and it rolled four feet into the cup. He was playing with Tom
Smith of Grand Rapids and Nelse Beattie and Pete Wabindatto of
Muskegon. Scott, 37, plans on retiring next July after 20 years as a
Leatherneck. He and his wife like this part of Michigan so well they
plan to make their home in the Grand Rapids area. . . .
One of our golfing companions took on a seif control project. In
the habit of tossing a club, especially his putter when the ball slipped
by the hole, or went “in and out," he decided he would just bite his
teeth, talk to himself and not give public vent to his consternation. He
did just that, except when he missed one especially vital putt, he
clamped down on his teeth, chipping one in half. After a period in his

�Snowmobile
Season

Learn To Ride Like A Pro
Some of you wUl be riding a snowmobile for the first time thio
season. If you learn to balance your machine right In relation to
the slant of the terrain, you can travel anywhere the machine will
go without flipping or running aground in deep snow. Here are a
few basic riding positions:

... is almost here M
Many Looking Forward to Snow

—When starting out. sit

on flat ground. Practice

figure eight turns in both

directions.

While
tnany
Michigan
residents dread the onset of lhe
cold, dreary winter season,
others actually look forward fo
the day when a solid base of
twinkling white snowflakes
covers the ground, heralding the
beginning of the snowmobile
season.
Although inexperienced ob­
servers may think owning a
snowmobile is all fun and games,
there are regulations to follow
and safely procedures which
can’t be overlooked.
All snowmobiles are subject to
a 1968 law which requires
registration with the secretary of
state and attaching (or painting)
identification numbers*to each
forward side of the snowmobile.
There are two exceptions to
this law. No registration is
needed for those machines
operated on
the owner’s
property, or on lands under his
control. And no registration is
necessary for a snowmobile
event of limited duration, if it is
conducted according to a
prearranged schedule under a
permit granted from local
authorities.
Under this law, which went into
effect Jan. 1, 1969, snowmobiles
are registered for a three-year
period for a $5 fee. The fee is
scaled down to $3 if the owner
registers his machine lhe second
year .and to $2 the third year.
All registrations expire this
year on Dec. 31, and owners must
renew their registrations for

another three-year period.
The growing popularity of
snowmobiles in Michigan is
unquestioned, and the numbers
of owners has spiraled upward
during
the
three-year
registration period, according to
Department of State figures.
During the first year of
registration, 1969, the Depart­
ment of State had registered
about 70,000 snowmobiles. The
total number of vehicles
registered so far is 207,447. Barry
County snowmobile registration
total 1,467, which represents .7
percent of the total registration
in Michigan.
—
From January 1 to March 14
last year the Barry County
Sheriff Department received 14
complaints about snowmobiles,
several of which involved
trespassing. There was only one
fatality during the same period,
whidh
occurred
when
a
snowmobile hit a tree.
“People think that just because
lheground is white they can take
off even on private property,”
Sergeant David Wood said. ”WE
get numerous complaints about
people riding on roadways and
not respecting property rights.”
The Barry County Sheriff’s
Safety Guide, a booklet which
includes a section listing
snowmobile regulations, may be
acquired upon request at lhe
Sheriff Department.
“We are trying to get funding
for lhe county to start* a
Snowmobile Safety Patrol,”

Snowmobile Laws
To Be Revamped
Snowmobiling is a multi­
million dollar industry which has
added millions of dollars to
Michigan’s economy. The state
has collected registration fees,
sales tax on the sale of new
vehicles,^equipment, clothing,
accessories, gasoline and oil. Not
to mention the impact on
Michigan’s tourist business.
However, snowmobiling is now
controlled by an outdated 1968
law, passed when snowmobiling
was young, which neither
provides for snowmobiler’s
rights nor adequate controls for
the rights of others.
A bill was passed in the House
of Representatives in June, H.B.
4011, which is awaiting action
from the Senate when it recon­
venes October 26. This is the bill
that will, if enacted into law this
year, provide the snowmobiler
well-defined guidelines for the
operation of his machine, and at
the same time "guarantee" tike
non-snowmobiler that his rights
and privileges/are not violated.
"We 'realize- that without
proper control, an industry that
has grown to approximately
210,000 vehicles in the state of
Michigan can get out of hand,”
Ron Gamble, president of the
Snowmobile Association of
Michigan, said in a telephone
interview. "H.B. 4011 is a com­
prehensive control bill.”
Gamble is pressing for
operating rights for experiences
snowmobilers to use the extreme
right hand side of highways,
ther than limited access highw­
ays. Snowmobilers, under the
existing law, must now stay 10
feet away from any roadway.
They may cross any highway,
except limited access roads when
they don’t hinder traffic. Also,
snowmobiles may use roads
during times of emergencies and
during special events of limited
duration under a proper permit.
Snowmobiles may also be

“ county
zz~'j roads not
operated on
maintained .during the winter,
and if there isn’t a 10 foot usable
right of way off the traveled part
of the road.
"We don’t want people driving
snowmobiles on private property
unless they have the prior con­
sent of the owner,” Gamble said.
"There will be definite restric­
tions on the use of snowmobiles in
hunting and fishing areas under
this law also.”
Gamble said the bill includes a
curfew between midnight and six
a.m. when no machine may

operate within 100 feet of private
property except at a minimum
speed necessary to operate a
forward motion-vehicle. This is
the minimum noise level
possible.
In 1971 the noise level of
snowmobiles can’t exceed 86
decibles under the provisions of
this law. A decible is the
measurement of sound in relation
to distance for every type of
vehicle for noise control.
"Under this law we suggest a
minimum operating age of 14
years, except on
private
property,” Gamble said. "We
dqnvt want youngsters operating
snowmobiles in the area of
automobiles.”
Gamble refutes charges of
snowmobiles upsetting the
ecological balance of nature.
“Basically this is untrue," he
said. "We have found through
several years of experimentation
that the effect of smowmobiles on
ecology is minimal if you have
four inches of*snow base.”
Gamble says that if lhe state
doesn’t provide snowmobiles
room to operate in this slate, "the
goose that lays the golden egg
each Michigan winter could
suffer the fate of his fabled
cousin."

Wood said. "We would use
snowmobiles for emergencies
and even for routine patrols, to
check registrations.”
Wood said that several other
Michigan counties have such a
patrol and that the machines
could also be used for cottage
checks about once a month, to
insure that no break-ins have
occured in summer homes.
The Sergeant also outlined
some tips for snowmobilers. He
urges using extreme caution on
ice which might appear thick, but
may be dangerously thin, and he
warns about single strands of
barbed wire fence which may be
hidden from view.
The Department of State adds
to Wood’s list with the following
safely suggestions:
Know your machine. Carry
tools,' necessary spare parts,
extra fuel.

— ... now, do the exact
opposite to tarn left. As
you do this, your weight
is put on the skis for
control. The further
out you hang, the
tighter the turn. .

Slay on marked trails when
on public lands.
The new owner should not go
on his own. Stay with ex­
perienced drivers.
When in strange country,
check conditions.
If you can carry litter in, you
can carry it back.

—Now add a little speed

and keep practicing turns.
To turn right, lean for­
ward and right.

If the laws are obeyed and
proper safety procedures are
followed, there is no reason why
snowmobilers in Michigan can!
have a furf-filled winter, to the
envy of on-lookers. Barring, of
course, that we don’t gel any
snow this year.

—Going across a steep

Snowmobiles Bring
Families Back
Together Again
The reason behind the great
popularity of snowmobiling and
its importance to Michigan's
economy, according to an avid
snowmobile buff, is that it is a
family sport which has brought
families back together doing
something they all enjoy.
"You hardly ever see a family
with only 'on machine," Larry
Krick, a local snowmobile dealer
and racer said. "They usually
have two or more so the entire
family can join in."
Snowmobiling is more fun id a
group, which is the reasoning
behind the organization o
snowmobile clubs.
The Michigan International
Snowmobile Association, based
in East Jordan, Michigan, has
about 80 affiliated clubs listed. Il
is lhe only such widespread
snowmobile organization in the
stale.
"Most of our member clubs are
involved
with
association
meetings, membership, parties,
races
and
Mardi

programs,” a MISA spokesman

The Mardi Gras program is
10 day snow festival aimed at
family-oriented holiday, i
contrast to the races which ar.
one or two day events. Last yea'
there were about 56 MIS4
sanctioned races in the state.
Most member flubs holi

�Snowmobiling: Not so Expensive

afford the cost of a snowmobile.
However, if you’re feeling flush
and have spent the last winter or
two in front of a warm fireplace,
watching with envy Die Joneses

freezing on one of those silly
machines, read on.
You can gel on the snow for as
little as $600. In case you are a

want to go Jonesey one better. If
so, there are deluxe machines
offered for $1,600 or $1,800

heavy duty workhorses, to family

offer at least 30 different models,
at a variety of prices to fit your
needs and pocketbook.
Just in case your petty cash is a
little low, you can finance a
snowmobile for up to 36 months.
If you did this, a $750 machine on
a three year payment plan would

any type of can at the collection
center after it has been rinsed
and the paper label removed.
Hall saia that arrangements
have been made With Jack
Laubaugh, owner of the Glenn F.
Laubaugh Company, local scrap
processor, to collect the cans,
which then will be separated and
processed for sale to basic metal
producers.
"We are happy to be able to do
our share in helping to alleviate
the mounting problem of solid
waste disposal,” Hall said.
"Efforts such as ours, although
relatively small, certainly should
have a tremendous effect when
added to the many similar
programs
throughout
the
country.”

Modern Auditorium At TK
By Diana Becker and Bev Nobel
Thomapple Kellogg High School

Soon a motorist will be able to
drive up to the Thornapple
Kellogg High School lobby to let
off his passengers and then park
his car. For the characters in this
little drama the next step is to
walk into TK’s new auditorium,
which is like walking into a small
but elegant theatre.
The auditorium floor is car­
peted and holds 324 theatre seats.
In addition, two classrooms off
the auditorium contain bleachers
which will fold dut from the side
walls to hold 200 people each.
Altogether, the auditorium seals
724 people.
The classrooms, separated
from the main auditorium by
sound proof curtains, will store
props and furniture.
The fron two rows in the middle
section are removable. This
x enables the band to be seated
there and play for the musicals.
Each row of theatre seats is
ettered and each seat is num­
bered. Every third step is lighted
so you can see where you are
going with the lights out.
A thrust stage makes it
possible for the audience to see

Self-integration among races is
one t-hing, but busing to
desegregate is a totally different
situation. Busing children around
just so the school can be totally
mixed, black, white, Chicano,
and Oriental, is undesirable.
People have the right to pick the
neighborhood in which they wish
to live. So why should their
children be forced to attend the
school they are appointed to
instead of the school of their
choice? If a white family wanted
to live among the blacks, he
would move there on his own will
and send his children to the
neighborhood school, and the
same in reverse.
Busing children to desegregate
the schools is violating the right
of the freedom of the people.
America is a free country and
people are supposed to have the
right to choose; that should in­
clude the right to pick the school
they want their children to at­
tend. In this way the busing plan
is truly violating our freedom.
Merely the mention of the word
BUSING arouses fear and anger
among people. The idea of taking
children out of their own neigh­
borhood to integrate schools
elsewhere
outrages
many
parents. Even President Nixon is
opposed to the busing plan and
praised the idea of the neigh­
borhood school. After ne
suggested a slowdown of in­
tegration,'the Southern holdouts
did acquire new hope for delay.
But that hope was dissolved
about six months ago when the
busing plan gained the Supreme
Court’s approval.
Although &lt;the green Light for
busing seems to be turned on
Srmanently, there is still hope
■ the red light to come on.

by Steve Goebel
Delton High School
While I was watching television
recently I viewed a situation in
which I saw how hard it was for
many of our fellow humans to get
along on the first day of school.
The big problem was over busing
to bring about integration.
I found it strange to see many
of America’s parents upset while
many of the students seemed to
understand the move. Obviously
busing will have to be used to
bring about integration.
If people want to accomplish
integration and continue to nave
neighborhood schools, they will
simply have to integrate the
communities.

The Civil War proved that the
United States backed up its
Declaration of Independence. It
is stated in the Declaration that
all men have the right to life,
liberty, and the persuil of hap­
piness.
But before the Civil War, which
was fought largely because many
slates were refusing these rights
lb thousands of its citizens, many
countries thought of us as a
nation of idle talk.
Thus it became necessary for
us to declare war upon these
states.
The United States became a
divided nation. One of the
roughest wars ever known to
man came about with brother
fighting against brother, and
father against son.
In the end the integrity of the
United States was restored.
Or was it? Today employers
refuse to give jobs to qualified
people because of their race,
creed, or color. Is this right? No.
Anyone who refuses to give a job
to a qualified person because of
his race is dead wrong. After all
we ail come from different
backgrounds.
Now I would like to ask a
question of all whites who are
prejudice. Who brought the black
people here in the first-place?
The whites did, almost four
centuries ago.
We have been taking ad­
vantage of them ever since. I
personally have never known a
lot of black people, but of those I
have known, there is nothing
'“different. They’re human just
like I am. I can’t see how anyone
can hate someone else just
because they have skin of a
different color. How about you?
Or vice versa. Do any of you
black readers hold a grudge
against the whites just because
they are while?
Don’t you think that judging
people just by the color of their
skin is a bit childish? Don’t you
think it’s about tim&amp; that society
as a whole grew up? I hope that
all of you will think about it.
I also hope that none of you
think that I am condemning you,
because I’m not. I’m telling you
the truth, something society
doesn’t like to hear.

About 17 high school boys will
be helping during their lunch
hour in the Lakewood cafeteria
this semester. They will also be
planning menus and serving
some luncheons to teachers.
Special assignments that they
will be participating in include
cake decorating, entertaining
school board members and
visiting some eating establish­
ments.

The purpose of the Boy’s Food
Service Class, according to Mrs.
Elizabeth Palmer, is “to learn
the basic skills associated with
the preparation and servicing in
any type of eating place.”
The requirements for the Boy’s
Food
Service
Class
are
developing a good attitude,
cleanliness and good ^employee
and employer relationships.
“This class is more beneficial
to the boys than the girls, but the
boys only take it to get an easy
credit,” Mrs. Richard said.
The Boy’s Food Service class
was started last year for senior
boys and only lasts one semester.

The Lakewood Homecoming,
slated for October 15 has chosen a
theme based on breakfast
cereals.
The seniors are constructing a
float at Monica Moltmaker’s
home and it centers around’
“SNAK PAK”. The juniors have
been kept busy building their
float at Pam Brown’s home.
Their float represents the
“ALPHABET” cereal.
The
sophomore class is working at
Kathy Tromps and their float
represents tne cereal “RAISIN
BRAN”and the freshmen are
working at Mary Haskin’s home
and their theme centers around
“CAPTAIN CRUNCH”.
There were five queen can­
didates nominated to reign over
the half time festivities, with one
of them to be the lucky “Queen of
1971”. They are Sheryl Wilson
escorted by Dave Enz, Deb Diang
escorted by Mark Ketchum. Judy
Moe escorted by Jim Stowell, Jan
Eckert escorted by Jim Valen­
tine and Sandra Brooke escorted
by Bill Smith.
The Lakewood Vikings will
face

by Rev. Everett Ray
Tiie psalmist has a message for Christians in this day of battle
with the evil forces that are set to destroy them. Believers must not,
must never, underestimate the power of the enemy, but must
recognize &lt;hat God is able to keep them.
Therefore Christians should cry with the psalmist “My heart is*
fixed O God my heart is fixed” Psalm 57:7.
First of all God’s children must fix their hearts upon God as
creator. This is necessary for the first book of the Bible begins with
"in the beginning God created. .. ?? It is not suprising that there are
those who deny the Bibical truth of the creation as well as with other
facts of Gods power. They deny the resurrection, the witness of the
Holy Spirit and that a child of darkness can be transformed into a
child of light, a soul fit for heaven.
Second, the Christian’s heart must be fixed on the truth that the
Bible is God’s word. •
I am convinced that the church has failed in encouraging people
to love and respect the Bible the average Christian knows very little
about the Bible, and if a person is to keep victory through Christ he
must read and accept God’s word. Some people think themselves too
full of wisdom to accept the Bible as it is written. They must give
every miracle a human touch, and remove all trace of the super­
natural.
What a difference this world would be if people would make the
Bible the blueprint for their lives.
Third the believer must fix his heart upon the Holy Spirit as
comforter and cleanser. Don’t expect the comforting hand of God
upon your life unless you belong to Him. Every person at one time or
another finds that no earthly friend can give him help in the time of
need. For just such a moment the Father has sent the Spirit into the
world.
Not only is the Spirit sent to help in the time of trouble, but even
when Satan himself is trying to force every one in darning their soul.
Not only does he glamorize sin, but he has crept into churches and
does his upmost to destroy the Spiritual life. He will do hi§ best to
harm souls and to destroy the nation.
•
So with this in mind the believer’s heart must be fixed upon Jesus
Christ as Redimer. Jesus ’gives complete deliverance over any sin.
Christians must commit themselves to Him, and trust Him not only
for salvation, but for this life and the life to come.
"My heart is fixed O God my heart is fixed."

framed in by Bernard Hull of
Grand Rapids and finished by
members of the congregation,
friends and heighbors who were

known as the Walton Church.
However, services had been held
in the McCallum school previous
to that time.
Rev. Ray came to the "Church
in the Wildwood" from South
Haven where he had been serving
in United Brethern Churches. He
and Mrs. Ray have four children
in the Delton school system and
three children who are married
and live elsewhere. He is a
graduate of Huntington College
in Indiana and received his
quarterly license in 1951.

The McCallum Church
The McCallum Church of the
United Brethem in Christ, known
as the “Church of the Wildwood”
due to it's lovely setting on the
Otis Lake Road in the Yankee
Springs area, has recently
dedicated a new parsonage just
north of the church.
Ijocated on a three acre site,
the new parsonage with it’s oc­
cupants Rev. and Mrs. Everett
Ray and family is the product of
an eight year program for the 35
member congregation.
McCallum Church members
voted in 1962 to raise $5,000 to
purchase more land and start
construction of a parsonage
adjacant to the church rather
than continue to pay rent for their
minister.
In the ensuing years through
cooperative efforts of members
and friends the money was
raised. By the Fall of 1969 they
had $10,000 and then with the
donation of the needed property
by Mi* and Mrs. William Mc­
Callum, they broke ground for
the parsonage lhe following,
spring. However, with the rising
costs through the years it was
found necessary to borrow
another $6,000 in order to com­

They reported that the United

VIETNAM BACKGROUND
The French came to Indo China about 1860 and withdrew most of
their armed forces at the beginning of the Second World War. The
Japanese came in 1939 and 1940. During their occupation they were
much harassed and damaged by guerrilla bands led by Ho Chi Min, a
communist. Due to his exploits in this field, Ho Chi Min became
something of a national hero. After the Japanese left, the French
came back. In the meantime, a good-sized group, called the Viet
Minh, the larger part non-communist, had established a government
with Ho Chi Min, as president. The Viet Minh sought a status within
the French union similar to that of the independent nations of the
British commonwealth. After some fruitless negotiation, the French
determined to quell the rebellion by force of arms and set up a native
government at Saigon with Bao Dai, as chief of state.
The French were supported by the Truman and Eisenhower
administrations with large amounts of money, supplies and weapons,
and by such rather ineffective troops as the Saigon government could
furnish.
In 1954, after 8 years of conflict with the communist led Viet
Minh, the French gave up, and the Viet Minh s£t up their government
at Hanoi.
The Geneva Convention arranged a cease-fire and provided for
the temporary division of Vietnam at the 17th parallel, with an
election to be held 2 years later to determine the question of
reunification. The authority of the Viet Minh in North Vietnam was
confirmed. Cambodia and Laos emerged as independent neutral
republics. Dinh Diem succeeded Bao Dai as chief of state at Saigon.
The Eisenhower administration supplied the Saigon government
with everything needed, including maintaining a native army. When
the time came in 1956 to determine the Question of reunification,
Diem refused to hold the promised election.
Following this, the Viet Cong stepped up their terrorism and
communists came in from the North. In 1963, President John F.
Kennedy considered it necessary to send 20 some thousand troops into
South Vietnam to protect the large number of Americans stationed
there. About that time, the Diem government was overthrown in a
bloody coup by a rival non-communist group. President Lyndon.
Johnson increased the number of American troops in South Vietnam
to more than ‘A million and attached military installations and supply
routes in North Vietnam from the air. President Richard Nixon has
withdrawn more than Mt of the American troops in South Vietnam.
VIETNAM PERSONALITIES
In a dispatch from Washington sometime ago, it was claimed that
Franklin Roosevelt had planned to try to persuade the French not to
go back to Indo China after the Second World War. If he had lived to
do so and had been successful, the French would have saved the 90
thousand soldiers and the billions of dollarsdhey lost in the conflict
with the communist-led Viet Minh. The Viet Minh would have taken
over all of Vietnam and we might well be now making friends with a
united communist Vietnam.

�School Staff
Reports Gifts
The first report meeting of this
year’s Hastings Community
Fund Campaign will be held
Thursday noon, Oct. 14 at the
Hastings Hotel, but, again this
year the Public Schools Division
is first to report.
Albert Francik, president of
the
Hastings
Education
Association, reports $5,233.10 has
been raised to date, and this is a
partial report. Last year the
School Division contributed
$6,867 and their goal for 1971-72 is
$6,960. Average giving by school
personnel has been lhe highest of
all divisions in recent years,
exceeding $32 in 1970.
Campaign Chairman Reward
Freeland, told his co-workers, 63
percent of all monies raised goes
to local Youth activities, $41,597;
25 percent supports the Red
Cross and its valuable blood
program; the Salvation Army;
Family and Children's and
Mental Health services and the
Breakthru workshop, new this
year.
This agency serves three
counties and over a dozen local
folks are in training at the
present time. These needs total,
$16,400.
About 10 percent goes to the 36
state and national agencies in the
Michigan United Fund, including
important groups working on
Luekemia and Cancer research;
rehabilitation services in various
fields; Michigan Heart and
Michigan Diabetis Assns.; Big
Brothers; Leader Dogs for the
Blind; and Mental Health ser­
vices. Less than 2 percent, only
$1,300.00, is used for campaign
and operating expenses. Htfs
year's Kick-off breakfast was
compliments of the local Lions
Club, Davis Wren, president.
United campaigning began
about 25 years ago and was
developed to eliminate the costly
time and effort of conducting
numerous individual campaigns.
Polio, Cancer, Dystrophy, and
some smaller agencies still ‘go it
alone.’ These too could be in­
cluded in the United package.
Report luncheons (Dutch
treat) will be held at the Hotel
each Thursday noon thru October

and Mr. Freeland wants all
Division Chairmen to have their
reports in to him on Wednesday.
Pledge cards and money can be
turned in at the Thursday
or on Monday and
Friday afternoons to Mrs.
Ziegler, 101 S. Jefferson Street.
In the list of new directors
reported last week the name of

Ron Beyer. Dog and Suds, was
inadvertently omitted.
Contributors are reminded
they can designate their gift to
support any individual agency, or
local community. Hopefully too.
our neighbors, working in other
cities, will designate, at least a
partion of their gifts, for this
community.

preference on the back of the
pledge card.
Richard J. Guenther, Com­
munity Fund president, asks all
to welcome the neighbor or co­
worker who calls. Guenther
reminds Hastingsis-a great place
to live because we share with
each other. Our Youth Council-

YMCA program alone is
recognised and envied all over
the state. Fair Share giving will
keep this community headed in
lhe right direction. It really costs
so little, only one hour's-pay per
month, will do the job.

“Since the birth of our Nation,
Americans have served their
country in uniform, thousands
have sacrificed their lives in hope
that one day their children will be
able to live in a world free of
greed, hate, and war.
"As Lincoln spoke more than
one hundred vears ago, we should
'highly resolve that these dead
shall not have died in vain - that
this nation under God shall have
a new birth of freedom’.

“This year, Veterans Day will
be observed October 25. This is a
day for all Americans to offer
thanks to our veterans and to
those who are in service whose
personal sacrifices have, over
the years, helped to preserve our
heritage and freedom of life,
‘ liberty, and the pursuit of hap­
piness.
, “We can never repay our debt
td those devoted people, for it is
beyond price,’ but we can show
our gratitude for their sacrifices
they have made to protect their
nation’s liberties and to bring
about a universal peace and
brotherhood.

Robert Miller reported to tne
board that 215 students are
receiving free lunches in ac­
cordance with Federal guidelines
and 26 are receiving reduced
price lunches, in accordance with
State rules. He said the reduced .

program
is
being
challenged by the Federal
government. The average lunch
costs 56 cents with receipts at 44
cents. The difference is made up
by the profits from the snack bar.
Free lunches are expected to
increase over 300 daily with the
expanded
program.
This
represents in excess of 20 percent
of those participating in the lunch
program, Miller said.

of Review spoke at the session
declaring
that
while
the
spreadinc the tax only on
residential property may not
have been legal, it did make
sense considering how much out
of line the business and industrial
assessments were.
He pointed out that all 10
commercial property owners
who appealed their assessments
to the State, had the assessments
lowered. Williams said the board
of review was attempting to
improve the assessment roll, but
hadn’t had time to do the whole
job. He added that Craig had
consulted other- officials who
agreed that it made sense to
spread
the
increase
on
residential property.
Williams said Hastings had
spent $25,000 to have professional
appraisers go over the entire
municipality, and that they did a
good job on residential. He said
that the county equalization
director plans for another 10
percent increase for next, year
and suggested that municipal
officials act now to remedy the
county’s unequal tax situation.
He said ail four supervisors who
attempted to get their tax rolls in
line with the 50 percent cash
value requirement were defeated
at the polls.

Steal Log Chain
Someone cut the lock at the
Barry Road Commission con­
struction site on S. Cook Road
Tuesday night, Oct. 12, and stole
a 12-foot logging chain worth
about $40, according to the
sheriff’s department report.

�First Ward
Post Open
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Ritchie,
have sold their home at 628 E.
Grant to Mr. and Mrs. Donald E.
Wolf and are planning on moving
to Clearwater, Fla., about Nov.
1st.
Ritchie, former Consumers
Power manager here and who
has been active in many civic
endeavors, had filed nominating
petitions for election as a First
Ward . aiderman to succeed
Edwin* Wietnik, who had an­
nounced that he would not seek
reelection.
Ritchie’s name will appear on
the ballot as the only candidate
for aiderman from the First
Ward. Unless a write-in can­
didate receives more votes than
Ritchie, Ritchie will be declared
elected by the Barry Board of
Canvassers. However, he will not
be able to qualify for the office.
In that event, the City Council
will name a successor to Wietnik.
A letter from Ritchie was read
at the Oct. 12 Council session by
Mayor Cedric Morey:
“Nearly a year ago some of my
friends suggested I file for s
Council to replace Edwin Wietnik
who announced he would not seek
another term.
At this time we were looking
for a Spring election. After
consulting a number of First
Ward citizens, petitions were
circulated and filed.
During our trip south in March
Mrs. Ritchie and I talked about
our future plans. We concluded
that if we were to move, we
should do so before we were too
old and too house bound.
To make a long story short, we
made the big decision and will be
moving from the First Ward
before
the
election
this
November.
I know this creates some
problems for the City, and this I
regret. Hastings ana its citizens
have been good to us, and we will
miss
our
friends
and
associations. However, we must
make decisions based first on
family considerations.”

manager of the Barry County
Road Commission.

�EDITORIAL
by R. M. C.

Holland, Michigan has, for more than a decade, used a system of
marked walkways m the central business district for the convenience
of pedestrians, according to Terry Hofmeyer, assistant to the city
manager there. During this time, there have been no accidents and
the system has been popular with customers and visitors in the
shopping area.
Ten years ago. Holland was faced with a situation similar to the
one here-A main Business District divided (at that time) by a State:
Highway. Althoughthere were traffic lights al the intersections, the
blocks were extra long and It became a real inconvenience for
pedestrian shoppers to cross from one side to lhe other. Therefore,
plainly marked walkways were establisted for pedestrian use at the
mid-point of each block. The walkways are further identified by
overhead signs.
• According to Mr. Hofmeyer, no special ordinance was passed in
establishing the walkways, but on sales days and during hours of
heavy traffic, police are present to insure the rights of pedestrians
During the years no troublehas ever developed. There have been no
accidents and motorists have given excellent co-operation.
At the start, tiie presence of police was thought advisable on
account of the fact that, expeciaily in spring and summer, many
motorists passed through on that street who might not be acquainted
with the local “ground rules.”
Here in Hastings, we have less of a problem. State Street no
longer carries traffic from either M-43 or M-37. A great majority of
the motorists who use that street are either residents or people who
are familiar with traffic rules in the city.
Holland never considered lhe walkways a permanent solution to
the problem of bringing stores on either side of the street into a more
compact and convenient retail unit. In fact, they are now considering
advantages that might accrue from the extablishment of a down town
parking mall. But the walkways were a quick, inexpensive and ef­
fective first step.
Here in Hastings, walkways might also be considered as an ef­
fective and inexpensive firlt step in making the divided State Street
retail area into a convenient and pleasant place for pedestrian
shoppers.
t If for any reason, lhe idea did not prove practical here-and there .
is no reason to believe that it would not be practical-very little would
have been invested.
x Something should be done here very soon. A shopping mall or
another similar plan would take time to develop. The walkways
would serve as a convenient stop gap while long range plans were
being developed-and accepted by a majority of the concerns in­
volved.
Walkways could be established at the Jefferson-Stale Street and
the Church-State intersections. Probably this would be at least as
effective as traffic lights in slowing the pace of auto traffic and would
certainly make the area more attractive and convenient for
pedestrian shoppers.
4
Most important of all, the plan could be put into effect almost
immediatly with no more capital outlay involved than some white
and yellow paint and the labor charge for marking the crossways.
We wish to emphasize that we do not consider the walkways as a
final and permanent solution. But once these are installed, the
problem of finding a long-range plan on which all will agree can
proceed al a more relaxed and satisfactory pace for all concerned.

total disregajxTIor sound business proceedures.
We have never been an enthusiastic convert to the unicameral
legislative system. However, lhe behavior, attitude and performance
of the Michigan Legislature during the past few years makes the idea
more attractive than it ever has before.
Possibly lhe time is ripe for giving the unicameral system close
study and consideration in what it might be able to achieve in regard
to more responsible business proceedures. better controls and
greater all-around efficiency in governments.

Voice Of The People

To The Editor,
Today a little dog named Spot
went “home." Twelve days ago
on a Sunday nite he was shot with
a 22 rifle which left five holes in
his body, one of them injuring a
leg so badly he will be crippled so
his home for the past 12 days has
been al lhe Veterinarian’s
Hospital.
This spunky little dog seems
destined to receive abuse and
cruelly from MAN as he has run
loose and afraid since he was a
puppy, no one has been able to
catch him altho. A triend with a
heart has furnished him with food
and water each day for’ over a
year. This same man found and
took him to the dog hospital and
has now brought him home to
care for and protect him. Al last
he has a home to call his own with
people to love and to care for
him. In lime, perhaps he can
learn ' to trust a human,
something he has never been able
to do.
Any person who would
maliciously attempt to destroy
an animal is guilty of a felony.
The man who shot this dog has
committed an abominable and
detestable crime against nature.
It is our great regret that we
have been unable to find the
person responsible for this
despicably cruel act but you, that
person, know who you are and
that should be enough.

�Lakewood Drug
Clinic Set
This Thursday
‘Were the Drug Workshops
held last year at Lakewood a
success? Who knows? Who
cares? We think this community­
cares. At one workshop ap­
proximately 500 people attended.
Thisw should show that some
Lakewood people care. But that
was last year, so what about this
year?"
Recently a committee of school
personnel and citizens met to
discuss "Does Lakewood Need A
Drug Education and Information
Committee? If we do. do we
establish a K-12 curriculm or are
there certain grades where Drug
Information should be taught? Or
do you say nothing and do nothing
and hope it goes away? Or maybe
we look for someone to blame it
on? Or would helping parents
spot symptons be most helpful?
Do we look for some causes of
drug use and then dare to dream
and work towards positive
workable and meaningful ways
to fullfill our youths needs to
belong, to feel worthwhile, im­
portant, and needed? Who
knows? Who cares? These;
however, ARE some questions
. which need answers.
Lakewood people must resolve
and solve Lakewood's problem.
If we aren’t a part of the solution
then aren’t we a part of the
problem?
The committee invites other
Lakewood persons to a meeting
on Thursday, Oct. 21st, at 2:30 in
the high school cafeteria. If you
are interested call one of lhe
following persons and discuss
with them where you stand. The
committee is Mrs. Harriet

�St. Johns Here
forHomecoming

Friday night it will be
homecoming at Hastings High's
Johnson Field, and Coach Jerry
Eckman’s fine Saxons are
preparing to host a hungry band
of Redw'ings from St. Johns, co­
champions of the West Central
Conference last year but now
smarting under two league
defeats and two non-loop losses
with only one win.
While Hastings entertains St.
Johns, playing here under Coach
Ernie Becker for the first time,
Alma invades Grand Ledge,
Charlotte goes to Idnia and
Lansing Waverly will face
visiting Howell in a non-league
encounter.
Coach Eckman isn’t taking St.
Johns lightly.
The Redwings opened their
season by dropping a one-point,
15-14, decision to Mason, then
romoed over Charlotte. 31-6.
They traveled to Holt and lost a
bruising 22-15 battle to that
powerful team which defeated
highly rated Lansing Catholic, 20­
16, last Friday.
St. Johns lost a 7-6 decision at
Ionia and then last week were
shutout by visiting Waverly, 26-0.
While Hastings scored a 6-0
decision over Waverly, it doesn't
put the Saxons in the driver’s
seat, despite the Blue &amp; Gold
record. Hastings, after battling
Lakewood to a 8-8 tie, has scored
three victories and dropped only
a 7-6 decision at Grand Ledge.
Defensively, the Saxons have
given up just one touchdown in
four league encounters, and only
two ail season. They have three
shutouts to their credit.
Coach Eckman will again bank
on his stalwart defenders, such
as Steve Greenfield in the mid­
dle, Bob Ogden and Tom
Robinson, Daryl Barnum, Brad
Foltz and his other fine lineman.
Line Backers Bob Terry and
Dave Haller have been doing a
great job. Coach Eckman ex­
claims, along with Chuck Heath,
Ed McKeough and Carl Norris.
Friday’s West Central Football
results:
•

picked up 130 yards to lead
Waverly to the 26-0 shutout at St.
Johns. Hewes went over from the
two and from lhe 20 for his touch­
downs. Gary Lennon ran back a
blocked punt for lhe first Warrior
TD and Chuck Shell slammed
over from lhe two for lhe fourth
period score.
Grand Ledge 42, Charlotte 6
Mike Wilton scored four times
on runs of 12 yards, one and four
vards and on a 55 vard punt
return lo lead lhe Grand Ledge
Comets to their fourth league win
at Charlotte to give them un­
disputed possession of the West
Central lead.
Joe Hughes scored from lhe
one and Tim Cosier rambled 58
yards for the Ledgers’ final six
pointer. Tom Whitley went over
from the one for Charlotte’s, lone
tally.
Ionia 7, Lakewood 6
Lakewood High’s Viking led, 60.X1 lhe half but Ionia’s Bulldogs
mounted their lone march in lhe
third period with Jim Westover
capping it from the five to tie the
score. Rick Munn kicked lhe vital,
extra point lo give Ionia a 7-6
mon-loop victory. It spoiled
Lakewood’s Homecoming.
Mike Catlin rolled out 15 yards
for the Lakewood touchdown.

�Lakewood Students
Build House
by Robert Bennett

Across from West Elementary
School on Washington Boulevard,
Lake Odessa, the Lakewood
School system is building a new
school house. This school house is
not an ordinary school house.
When completed it will be a
residence, which is being con­
structed by the 25 students of the
building trade class.
"It’s a three bedroom ranch
style house with plenty of closet
space on a city sire lot," confirms
Mr. Steven Barnum, the Building
Trade’s instructor. The building
also contains a two car garage.
The exterior of the house will
be finished in brick and
aluminium siding. The yard is
being landscaped by the Future
Farmers of America and the
interior decoration is being
handled
by
the
Future
Homemakers of America. So far
it has been decided that the in­
terior will be trimmed in dark
walnut. Also plans call for
making the dining room-kitchen
area in Spanish-American decor.
Presently the boys, all junior
and seniors, are busying
themselves with closing in the
house. They will keep up their
progress along with finishing the
plumbing and electrical work
until the bids come back on the
other building facilities. ’
When the bids come back they
will be presented to an advisory
committee to help the class make
the best choice. This committee
consists of local contractors, Bill

Bulling, Ernest Wood, Duane
McArther, Leo Carr, Lyle Sand­
brook, and Charles Coppess.
The committee is selected on
the basis of having a high school­
aged son capable of being in the
class and having an interest in
the business.
Barnum feels that through Dus
on-the-job experience the boys
will have a better chance at a job.
“They will have a whale of a lot
more knowledge than, a person
who takes general education
classes,” he said. “Besides, if
these boys don’t enter lhe trade
this knowledge will help. A home
is usually a family’s biggest
investment.”
Barnum said that he didn’t
have to worry about how many
take the job seriously. In the
three years that this program has
been in progress, 40 per cent of
the participants have entered the
trade.
Why is the turnout so good?
Two of the boys summed it up
nicely.
"It’s challenging!” quipped
Ken Steele, a high school junior.
”And the jobs are surprisingly
well done," added Lary Landes,
a senior.
“We receive our assignments
in the classroom, pick up our
equipment and move out,” ex­
plained Dwight Shortz, another
senior. After this they move out
to old bus no. 22, on which the
main tools are stored. Last year's
class liberated the bus, with the

superintendent’s blessing, from
among a group to be sold.
The crews are never alone,
there is always someone stopping
to look. Junior David Harvey
recalls one visit.
“The first grader's came and
led themselves on a tour,
"he
said. "Those UlUe inquisitive
kids turned the place into a
regular playground.”.
Even with these minor' in­
structions the job will get done.
Then some time next year one
lucky family will plunk down
their money to take over
ownership. The home is expected
to sell in the middle $20,000
bracket.

VIETNAM BACKGROUND

|

The French came to Indo China about 1860 and withdrew most of
their armed forces at the beginning of the Second World War. The
Japanese came in 1939 and 1940. During their occupation they were
much harassed and damaged by guerrilla bands led by Ho Chi Min, a
communist. Due to his exploits in this field, Ho Chi Min became
something of a national hero; After the Japanese left, the French
came back. In the meantime, a good-sized group, called the Viet
Minh, lhe larger part non-communist, had established a government
with Ho Chi Min, as president. The Viet Minh sought a status within
lhe French union similar to that of the independent nations of the
British commonwealth. After some fruitless negotiation, the French
determined to quell the rebellion by force of arms and set up a native
government at Saigon with Bao Dai, as chief of state.
The French were supported by the Truman and Eisenhower
administrations with large amounts of money, supplies and weapons,
and by such rather ineffective troops as the Saigon government could
furnish.
In 1954, after 8 years of conflict with the communist led Viet
Minh, the French gave up, and the Viet Minh stfl up their government
at Hanoi.
The Geneva Convention arranged a cease-fire and provided for
the temporary division of Vietnam at the 17th parallel, v/ith an
election to be held 2 years later to determine the question of
reunification. The authority of lhe Viet Minh in North Vietnam was
confirmed. Cambodia and Laos emerged as independent neutral
republics. Dinh Diem succeeded Bao Dai as chief of slate at Saigon.
The Eisenhower administration supplied lhe Saigon government
with everything needed, including maintaining a native army. When
the time came in 1956 to determine the question of reunification,
Diem refused to hold the promised election.
..-Following this, the Viet Cong stepped up their terrorism and
Communists came in from the North. In 1963, President John F.
KennedyiJonsidered it necessary to send 20 some thousand troops into
South Vietnam to protect the large number of Americans stationed
there. About that time, lhe Diem government was overthrown in a
bloody coup by a rival non-communist group. President Lyndon
Johnson increased the number of American troops in South Vietnam
to more than million and attached military installations and supply
routes in North Vietnam from the air. President Richard Nixon has
withdrawn more than 4 of the American troops in South Vietnam.
VIETNAM PERSONALITIES
In a dispatch from Washington sometime ago, it was claimed that
Franklin Roosevelt had planned to try to persuade the French not to
go back to Indo China after the Second World War. If he had lived to
do so and had been successful, the French would have saved the 90
thousand soldiers and the billions of dollars they lost in the conflict
with the communist-led Viet Minh. The-Viet Minh would have taken
over all of Vietnam and we might well be now making friends with a
united communist Vietnam.

\rar 1840, preaching then in the
Ing homes of John Henyon and
Issac Messer. Later worship was
held in the Rogers School House.
II was known then as the
Hastings Mission and the first
quarterly Methodist Episcopal
Conference Meeting was held al
Hastings (then just a village) on
N'»v. 6,1841 and Elisha Carpenter
'from Carlton was among those
present.
Al a meeting held July 13, 1843
it was resolved to build a par­
sonage in Hastings and *our’
Issac Messer was one of that
building committee.
About 1844 preaching moved to
the Carlton Center School House,
with preaching services every

church building was erected.
Mr. Peter Covert donated the
land for the Church April 8. 1885,
and the church was completed in
1886. The Aid Society was
organized on October 17th of that
year.

Rev. Esther Cox, Minister
Service 9 a.mTcfhurch’school 10 a.m.

by Mrs. Esther L. Cox, pastor
Hastings Circuit

From its earliest beginnings
the groups united under the-leadership of John Wesley were
defined as "a company of men
having the form and seeking the
power of godliness, united in
&gt;rder to pray together, to receive
ihe word of exhortation, and to
watch over one another in love,
that they may help each oilier to
work out their salvation.”
This has sometimes been
misunderstood, because of a
change in word usage. It has been
taken lo mean that United
Methodist believe that they can
earn salvation by good works!’.
Quite lhe contrary it means that
••ne who had been saved, born
again, converted; now feels lhe
urge-the complusion-to do the
work of God as obedience to the
Savior, Jesus Christ. Salvation
ignored is salvation lost: as the
Master Himself has said, No man
who puts his hand lo the plow and
then looks back is fit for the
kingdom of God.
Thus to “work out ones
salvalionv is lo promote, social
justice, lo work for racial
equality, to aid in rebalancing the
ecology and eliminating proverly
in, through and by; not only
"good works” but also in leading
others to salvation. We are not
saved by our works but wholly by
our faith....works are not the
means of grace but rather the

evidence of grace received.
Grace is the gift of God through
faillv io Jesus Christ; bom of a
virgin, crucified for man’s sins
and resurrected lo the right hand
of God to be the way and the
judge. Grace is made available
today through the activity of the
Holy Spirit, who, together with
God and His Son Jesus, is the
third person of the Trinity. Grace
comes to a man who at the
repentance of sin is thereby his
faith forgiven of (that) sin.
Thus through faith which leads
to repentance the grace of God is
received which then enables him •
to strive lo the “High mark of lhe
calling which is in Christ" and
which is achieved through
obedience.
Therefore, there is no conflict
between Paul’s statement "For
by grace are ye saved through
faith and not of yourself lest any
man should boast ” and that of
James "by works a man is
justified and not by faith only?’
For faith is . the inspiration to
works and obedience to God. One
can not'obey God without faith,
lhe channel of his grace.
Thus the United Methodists
take lhe whole Bible as their
guide knowing that only that
which is cont^jned therein or can
be proved thereby is necessary
salvation.

Craftmanship Transforms
Room Into Intimate Chapel
The intimate little chapel at the
Emmanuel Episcopal Church in
Hastings was nothing more than
a dusty storage room at the right
of the altar a year ago. Today,
thanks to the work of a local
craftsman, two beautiful, half­
moon stained glass windows
illuminate the room, creating an
. atmosphere of peace and
tranquility.
The windows in the chapel,
which is used for daily masses,
confessions, and prayer, were
designed and created late last
fall
by
Phillip
Villaire,
nicknamed "The Rennaisance
Man” by his wife, Kathleen, who
sometimes chides him about his
interest in that period.
"He likes collecting antiques,
enjoys Baroque music, drama
and of course, making stained
glass pieces," she said.
Phil’s interest in stained glass
began about 12 years ago when he
was a student at the University of
Detroit. A friend worked as an
artist for Diamond Art Glass
Company in Detroit, where Phil
later began working without pay
to learn the trade.
Phil, a service worker for the
'Barry County Social Services
Department, said he never has
done much stained glass work for
commercial purposes, rather
using his skill as a hobby.
"They are good for gifts and if I
had more time I’d do more," he
said. "The windows in my house,
for example, why have them
plain?"
A window in liis living room
and another on the porch are
stained glass which Phil picked
up while working for the glass
company. He also salvaged two
tiffany lamps with broken panels,
which he repaired.
One of the lamps, a delicate,
multi-colored piece with a flower
design and scalloped edge, was
found in a Detroit basement when
Phil was working for a gas
company reading meters. The
lamp, which Phi) says is now
worth about four hundred
dollars, was being used as a
flower pot.
The second lamp, made of
yellow glass fitted into the
graceful curves of the lead
frame, was discovered in the
rafters of his parent’s garage.
To demonstrate his art Phil
brought out his pieqes of stained
glass, several carries of lead (six
foot lengths) putty, a glass
cutter, hack saw and soldering
iron, and set up shop on his dining
room table.

Demo Conference
Mr. and Mrs. Carl Brodbeck
were in Battle Creek attending
am issues meeting sponsored by
tiie Democratic State Central
Committee. The disparity be­
tween farm produce prices and
the unusually mgn costs ot
operation received attention.

' “First you draw a pattern, then
lay the glass on the top so you can

see through,” he said. “If the
Sass is dark and you can t see
rough, you use charcoal, or if
•it’s dusty like this, use your
finger to know where to cut.”
He explained that a lot of glass
is textured on one side, called
hammered cathedral glass. The
glass should be cut on the
textured side, because
straighter line can be cut.
“The surface is just scratched,
which displaces molecules and
causes surface tension," Phil
said. “It must be cut im­
mediately, but if the glass is cut
on a curve, it has to be tapped
before breaking it.”
For the peace symbol which he
made, Phil used two larger
pieces of yellow hammered
cathedral glass and two small
cuts of a French blue glass,
which lias bubbles in it.
Each piece of lead is cut to fit
around the glass, then the cracks
at the sides are filled with putty
darkened with lamp black to tone
down the shine of the lead. After
this is done, all that remains is
the soldering, which looks easy
enough, but can be tricky.
"The soldering iron can’t be too
hot because the glass can crack,”
Phil said. “I usually work with a
120 watt iron which is broken, so
I’m using a 100 watt iron. It isn’t
too good because 1 can feel more
heat in the handle than there is at

Hastings High fans who attended lhe football game at Alma
Friday night returned not only flushed with victory as the Saxons
came through with a 21-0 shutout over the Panthers, but they also
came home probably envious of the beautiful new Alma Athletic
Field.
Alma's new educational facilities-the high school was opened
last year -are located on a 67-acre tract. The setup includes two
softball fields, two practice football fields, a baseball diamond and
six tennis courts with fine surfacing, plus lhe regular football field.
The varsity field was sodded in May. and is in fine shape. The
track which surrounds it was surfaced with new all-weather material
at a cost reportedly of $4,000. TJhe comfortable bleachers-if bleachers
are ever comfortable-seal 3,000 people on one side and 1,000 on lhe
other. The 12 by 42 fool carpeted press box is 25 feet in lhe air. The
facility includes separate booths for efficient broadcasting and press
work.
The lighting is great, with little variation anywhere on lhe field.
Our Johnson field not too long ago was a show place. Now it needs
belter sealing a surfaced track, work on the grass and a press box
that will accommodate the people who work the games.

A flock of wild ducks has been providing a great deal of pleasure
for visitors and staff al Charlton Park. The ducks were almost
“raised,” having been fed com since most of them were ducklings.
Thursday afternoon, a couple of "sportsmen" came down the
Thomapple in a boat, the pet ducks had to be chased to be made to fly,
and at least one was killed. This despite lhe fact that the Dave Barrys
on the south side of lhe river, and Ray Price and Wallace Benner, who
were putting on a new roof al the park, kept yelling at the hunters not
to shoot. The ducks usually provided an "extra" for visiting school
kids. Park Director Frank Walsh would generally feed the ducts at
this lime, to lhe enjoyment of lhe youngsters.
Outdoor trail-Sportsmen planning to hunt elk in Idaho this Fall
will have to forget it unless they have their nonresident elk hun­
ters...Harvey Hutlas of Buffalo Grove, Ill., on Sept. 26 caught a
record steelhead weighing 22 pounds, 6 ounces off Manistee in Lake
Michigan. It broke a Michigan record of nearly four years. The fish
was 3 ounces heavier that lhe old record steelhead caught Dec. 8,
1967....New Michigan hunting license fees have been approved: Small
game, $5; resident firearm and archery deer, $7.50; nonresident
small game, $25; nonresident firearm deer, $40; nonresident archery
deer, $20. New this year: Special $1.00 resident firearm or archery
deer license for Michigan residents who have reached 65 years. . . .
Barry County Deputies Ken DeMott and Mike Norton, Hastings
police Officer Al Stanton, Sheriffs Posse riders Clarence Miller and
Ed (Dutch) Hoevener and Waynard Belson relumed Tues., Oct. 12,
from a fine Canadian hunting trip at White River. Stanton brought
down a big bull, weighing about 1,000 pounds, on Oct. 4, Waynard and
Dutch got one weighing about 650 on the 8th and Ken and Mike got a
calf on lhe 10th. The six report a great time. When Ken got back he
learned he was the father of a daughter, Tammi Lynn, born on lhe
10th at Pennock weighing 7 pounds, 2 ounces.........
A lot of bucks have changed hands at the River Bend golf course,
but the owner, Don Haywood got a real live one late Thursday, Oct. 7,
with his bow and arrow. Don fired his "ace" just off No. 3 green, down
by the Thomapple, and got a spikehom.

Elmo Martin and his son, Scott, won first place in the River Bend
turkey shoot Sunday, Oct. 10, with 36-32-68. First flight winners were
Max Decker and Maury Armstrong, with 38-35-73; second flight
winners were Cliff Finkbeiner and Jim Seeley with 42I37-79, and third
flight winners were Sheriff Merl H. Campbell and Ken Barnes with
45-37-82. All eight winners won a big gobbler.

Along the Sidelines-Gull Lake Coach Dave Matheson won his
first game and then BOOM*! Nevertheless, the fine mentor keeps
sending out his complete game statistics each Tuesday. In their
losing effort at F.C. St. Philip, the Blue Devils did show some of­
fensive punch but lost, 20-6. Gull had 16 first downs, made 186 yards
thru the air and 294 on the ground.

�Orangeville,
Delton ‘Lite
Bikes’Oct. 23
Free reflective tape will be
applied to youngsters’ bikes in a
"Lite-A-Bike" program to be
conducted here by the Delton
VFW Memorial Post and the
Orangeville Fire Dept.
Tape will be applied to bicycles
at the Orangeville Fire House on
Oct. 23 from 9:30 a.rti. to 12 noon.
Stripes of reflective tape will be
put on the rear fender, han­
dlebars and front forks of the
bicycles, making each bike
visible after dark from all angles.
The highly reflective tabe-the
same material used in reflective
traffic signs and license plates-is
visible at distances up to 1,500
feet in the headlights, of an
automobile.
“Youngsters shouldn't be out
bike riding after dark, but if they
are, their bikes ought to have
reflective tape,” said Com­
mander Hartwell, director of the
“Lite-A-Bike" program.
He pointed out that some 600
persons are killed each year in
bike accidents, 65 per cent of
them children aged 5-14. Another
30,000 persons are injured each
year in such accidents. Four out
of five fatal bike accidents occur
at dusk or after dark.
In addition to applying tape,
VFW members will register each
bike by make and serial number.
More than 17 million bikes
across the nation have been
marked with reflective tape in
the VFW program. Supported by
the national safety council, the
“Lite-A-Bike" program depends
on reflective tape donated by 3M
company, which has given more
than $2 million worth of the
material to date.
For additional information call
Ronald Hermenitt, 664-4774.

THE
DIE
IS
CAST
99 percent of all babies are
born with near perfect feet. Yet
by the time they reach age 20,
over 80 percent have developed
foot trouble of some kind. Their
feet have been molded in the
sum total of the correct and
incorrect shoe fittings they
have had through the years. In
other words, by age 20, the die is
cast, It cannot be changed.
It is the duty of all thoughtful
parents to make sure their
children’s shoes are always
correctly fittedvfrom (their first
size 0 all the way to their teen
sizes. Our trained shoe fitters
have the ability and interest to •
give your children a perfect fit
every time. We want you to
come back again and again.
Start, and keep, your children
in good foot health now...here.

LEARNING

Hlimpty Dumpty Pre-School,
which was started here the last
week in September, learned that
lots of little things-and big
things-live in water such as

Sweezie’s Pond. They visited it,

how fish and other things make

Hearing On
Barry Budget
Next Tuesday
Barry County commissioners
are schdeuled to hold a public
hearing Tuesday, Nov. 2, on the
county’s proposed $1,184,164
budget for 1972. The 1971 budget
was $1,IM,738.
Monte (Joe) Bennett, chair­
man of the finance committee,
told the board that the budget
reflects only increases in fixed
expenses and no department is to
receive an increase in its
operating budget over the 1971
figure.
Bennett said the county has ho
alternative but to hold down
operating expenses because of a
decrease in revenue for 1972. The
hold on expenses is expected to
mean that county employees will
not receive wage adjustments.
The salary report for next year
recommends the same salaries
as paid this year.
Tuesday, Oct. 26, the Barry
County
Deputy
Sheriff’s
Association and commissioners
were to meet with a State
Mediator for the contract talks.
The county’s other employee
assosiation presented a list of
demands to the commissioners,
seeking a $300 wage hike for most
workers, 14 paid holidays and a
request that if the county decided
to lay off employees, those newly
hired would be the first to go.
The sheriff’s budget is down to
$171,895 from the 1971 figure of
$191,895, with $20,000 taken off
because of the scheduled opening
of the new jail which would cut
that amount from paying
prisoners’ keep to other counties.

DeDecker tossed his little net
into the water, and brought out in
the glass container plankton and
other organic life and the
children pul them in their jars,
and took them back to school.

�Chamber Sets Priorities For “Involvement: 72”
"You are here tonight to deal
with change and nothing is more
certain than change,” remarked
Rodney F. Benson. Executive
Vice President of the Kalamazoo
Chamber of Commerce.
Benson was guest speaker and
moderator for the kickoff of the
Hastings Area Chamber of
Commerce "Involvement: 72",
Phase 1 program last week in the
high school cafeteria. More than
• 50 Chamber members attended
the two hour session designed to
determine Chamber goals and
priorities that will strengthen the
Hastings community.
In his opening remarks.
Benson said. "How do we
foresee, analyze and deal with
change? We start by individually
keeping our eyes and ears open,
and our minds flexible and
adaptable. We cannot close out
change. If we do, it overruns us
and multiplies our problems."
Benson, a native of a small
community, Sheldon. Iowa,
concluded his statements with,
“We analyze change or the need
for change by joint action, people
sitting down together as you are
tonight. We exchange ideas and
knowledge and come up with new
directions which will effectively
deal with change. It is essential
we recognize that a sound
business climate depends on a
healthy community climate. The
business progress of a com­
munity cannot occur in a
vacuum, and therefore, problems
other than economic must be
considered and dealt with."
Earl McMullin, 1972 Chamber
president, called the meeting to
order with a brief introduction of
Bob Johnson, Chamber manager.
Johnson prefaced Benson’s
remarks by stating, "This
evening we are embarking on a
new mission for the Hastings
Area Chamber of Commerce. Il
is my sincere desire, that each
one of you will actively involve
yourself in the Chamber, not only
tonight, but in the future as we
progress with new goals and
attitudes towards making the
Chamoer of Commerce a truly
active organization.”
EXCHANGE IDEAS
The business portion of the
meeting consisted of groups of
six persons al a table exchanging
ideas, thoughts and convictions
regarding the direction the
Chamber should move in 1972. Al
the conclusion of the discussion,
each table chairman reported the
concensus from his table as to a
specific goal the Chamber should
direct its attention. Then each
individual was asked to rate the
objectives, by ballot, according
to priority. Five priorities were
taken into consideration for the
Chamber to direct its efforts in
1972. The five are: 1. to gain new,
small industry for Hastings; 2.
downtown traffic and parking
control; 3. to promote Hastings
as the Barry County shopping
center; 4. a complete revision of
the property lax structure; and 5.
a new and positive image for the
Chamber of Commerce.
Phase II of the Chatnber's
"Involvement: 72" program
begins immediately with a
restructuring process. Each one
of the priorities will be placed in
a Task Force to consist of not
more than seven members, but
with the power to call on others
as needed. The Task Force has
the sole responsibility to develop
a solution to its priority objectiye. Phase III is tMe im­
plementation of the solution.
"WANTS CHANGE"
.
“We can more effeclively-deal
with these priorities when they
become the only objective of a
group of persons dedicated to
involvement
and
action,
Johnson stated. "I believe our
membership, as well as the
community, wants change, and

EDITORIAL
by R. M. C.

There are some "up and down" the Street who would like to see
the entire business district free of parking meters. Others, who
remember back to the "pre-meter" era when store owners, em­
ployees and other townspeople, used prime space for all day parking
are not so sure. Even on days when business was not brisk, to em­
phasize by understatement, shoppers often had difficulty finding
parking space near the stores where they wished to trade.
If townspeople and store owners and their employees would all
co-operate to see that the State Street parking spaces were left open
for shoppers or those having bbsinBss in professional offices, there
would be no need for parking meters. This would enable us to match
the free parking service available at the large shopping centers.
Personally, we would like to see a "meter-free” area but doubt
that there would be sufficient co-operation from all concerned to
make such an arrangement practical. Even without meters, there
would still have to be at l^asla minimum of police supervision in the
area to see that parking privileges were not abused-and this involves
a policing problem al least as time consuming and considerably more
involved than the routine inspection of parking meters.
Parking lime limits without a strict system'of enforcement mean
nothing. Past experience has shown that to be the case. Arbitrary
time limits for parking, if strictly enforced could generate more ill
will among customers than parking meter fees and the issuance of
the yellow "overtime" tickets. So, unless a no-meter system without
time limits or police enforcement could be made to work, little would
be gained by doing away with the present arrangement.
Some have expressed the opinion that things might be different
this time and that the no-meter system with specified time limits but
not police enforcement should at least be given a try. We could go
along with that providing there was an understanding that the
arrangement was on a trial basis and with the provision that the
meter system could be brought into use once again, if and when it
became evident, that parking privileges were not being used as in­
tended.
Possibly a parking mall is the answer for the problems here.
However, even if the general idea is accepted, it will take time to
arrive at a satisfactory plan. Traffic in the downtown area will have
to be rerouted, parking arrangements within the mall will have to
meet with majority approval and a decision will have to be made
regarding the number of pay stations.
There arc many factors entering into the establishment of a mall.
The project requires detailed study and should not be undertaken
withouballowing plenty of time for consideration and discussion. The
mall, of itself, is no cure-all for traffic problems in the retail area.
Merely because the idea has been a success in some cities is not a
guarantee that it will benefit us here. However, the fact that malls
have been effective in many cities is reason enough why Hastings
should give the proposition careful study.

Article I
Religeous Establishment Prohibited. Freedom of Speech, of the
Press and Right of Petition.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of
religion, or of prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the
freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people
peacefully to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress
of grievances.
Read the above carefully, it deserves thoughtful study. It
guarantees rights and privileges uneoualed anywhere else in the
world. "God Bless America" we say!

�Barry Farm
Leader Hits
Federal Bills
DuWaine Langs, president of
the Barry County National
Farmers Organization, said that
farm bargaining bills before
Congress invite government
domination and regimentation of
collective bargaining that would
complicate efforts of farmers to
bargain for better prices without
adding anything whatever to
farm bargaining rights under the
Capper-Volstead Act.
Involving the government in
collective bargaining is un­
necessary, he said, and the
bargaining bills being pushed
now in Washington should be
killed.
“In the National Farmers
Organization we are unwilling to
accept the idea that the govern­
ment must take charge of
collective bargaining,” he said.
‘‘The government has failed to
achieve fair prices necessary to
keep
family
farming
economically healthy, and it will
continue to be subject to the same
processor and consumer-political
Pressures that have weakened
price support programs.”
President Langs said it is
possible for farmers, with the
Capper-Volstead exemption now
available, to do the organizing
and bargaining job themselves.
What farmers need now, he
said, is legislation to prevent
handlers,
processors,
in­
tegrators, and other big cor­
porate buyers from producing
their own agricultural com­
modities to escape collective
bargaining with farmers.
“A move is underway by big
business to take over American
agriculture and turn our farms
into the bottom rung of a giant,
ladder-like corporate system that
plants, harvests, processes and
retails all the Nation's food,”
President Langs said.
‘‘The legislation we seek would
curb this corporate grab for
power in agriculture ana help the
people of Barry County maintain
private farm ownership and our
free enterprise system.”
President Langs said NFO has
developed
a
Nationwide
collection, dispatch and delivery
system during 10 years of
collective bargaining under
present law.
,
The organization, he said, has
negotiated more than 3,000
contacts so far this year with
every
type of buyer of
agricultural commodites.
“Supply contracts have, been
negotiated with several hundred
packers, grain dealers, millers,
soybean processors, poultry
integrators, potato processors,
and foreign buyers," he said.
‘‘We have learned enough in
testing collective bargaining
techniques to be convinced that
the NFO is the farmers only hope
for getting prices that return cost
of production plus a reasonable
profit.”

That should tell you a lot about the cars we sell.

Every Chrysler Imperial *
is road-tested at the
factory.

Whether you own
a big or small car, pay
a little or a lot, the
one thing you don't need
from a car is trouble. You
want a car that will hold up. A
car that’s built to last.
Well, we're with you.
Just look at this figure:

9 out of 10 new Chrysler*
registered in the last
10 years are still on the road.
This Includes ell the various owners.
any kind of terrain, and numbers of.
miles. But every Chrysler Is designed
end built the wsy you went It-to lest.
So even If you won't be keeping e cer
for yeers end yeers, It'e good to know
you've got ell thet quality going for you
in your first year as well as in later years.

Newport Royal 2-Door Hardtop

You gotta have heart.
The quality of a Chrysler stsrts deep
down in the heart of the car. That's
where you've gotta have It. That's
where you get It. With such time- and
road-proven features as Chrysler's
torsion-bar suspension and TorqueFllte automatic transmission. The
rigid strength of unibody construction.
And a 7-step dip-and-spray anti-rust
process. Extra care like that Is why
so many Chryslers stay In great shape.

If our cars aren't right, we don’t want
you to have them. For example, every
Imperial is put through a road test at
the factory that includes over 100
different checks before it reaches you.
This year every Chrysler car offers a
new optional electronic ignition system
that does away with the points and
condenser that can wear out This helps
keep the engine tuned longer. And a
tuned engine means cleaner exhaust.
From our lowest-priced Chrysler
Royal to our big, luxurious Imperial,
Chrysler cars are built to last. The same
is true of every Chrysler-engineered car
we sell—Valiant, Duster, Cricket,
Satellite and Fury.
We think that's the kind of car .
America wants. That’s the kind of car
we’d like to show you. Come see us

Scott Steward opened the
scoring at 5:33 in the first quarter
on a one yard quarterback sneak.
At 2:21 left in the quarter Ray
DeMond, the fullback, ran 4
yards for a score. Fullback
Dallas Rairigh scored at 3:27 of
the second quarter on a 5 yard
run.
In the second half the Vikings
drove down field only to fumble
on the Saranac 1. With 5:32
remaining Doug Taylor went 45
yards on a power end sweep for a
touchdown.
In the final period Saranac
scored a safety when Dave
Matlice was tackled in the end
zone. Then with less than J:30
remaining the Vikings faced with
a fourth down and eight on their

only to come within one yard of a
first down. Saranac took over the
ball on the Woodland 27. Three
plays later they scored on an end
run and the extra point failed.
The score at this point was 30-8
with time running out.
After the kick-off the Vikings
had 13 seconds on the clock. The
Vikings attempted a play they
called “The Waverley Special."
This play was used against
Waverley last year and worked
for 12 yards. The play is run by
putting an end, both tackles, and
guards on the left side of the field,
the center and quarterback in the
middle and the rest of the back- .
field on the right. When the ball is
snapped the quarterback passes
to the tailback on the right and he
runs down the side line. The play
is designed to confuse the defense
and it worked. Doug Taylor
caught the pass from Scott
Steward and he ran 55 yards for
the last touchdown. The final
score was 36-8 in favor of
Woodland.
Doug Taylor again led the
offense rushing for 117 yards m 8
carries, Ray DeMond gained 48
yards and Dave Schelter added
26. Scott Steward completed 2 of 3
passes for 96 yards and one
touchdown.
Dave
Mattice
completed 1 of 2 passes for 8
yards. In pass receiving Mark
Erickson caught one pass for 41
yards. Taylor one pass for 55

for 8 yards.

Many seniors at Hastings High
School have been seriously
thinking about their futures. With
the last year of high school finally
here, many students realize they
have to decide what to do after '
graduation in June.
The counselors have been
busily advising students which
direction they should take. An
excellent college night was of­
fered a few weeks ago at Calvin
College. Many seniors took ad­
vantage of this opportunity to
learn about the colleges around
Michigan and what curriculums
they offer.
Other seniors ■ have had the
opportunity to'work on Co-op
during their senior year. These
students attend school in the
morning or afternoon and work
the other half of the day. They
are graded at their job, as well as
paid.
The seniors have to take a
required class this year. Senior
Social Studies. This course
teaches students how the
government is run. Since many
seniors will be 18 years old, Jhis
gives them an opportunity to
learn amore about voting
procedures.

Do you feel you are being short­
changed as a student?
Do you parents find your
children upset by not being able
to attend athletic events? Are you
teachers outraged at the fact of
no field trips?
Then maybe you should look
into the money shortage
currently facing our schools. For'
example, here at Ldkewood, of
the nine operational mills plus 2.7
for special activities, all that our
community voted in was the nine
mills. This is what cut out
programs such as the vocal
music for the elementary and
enior high system. While at the
gh school it removed one
teacher, one librarian, use of
school buses for spectators and
field trips, and it caused the
reorganization of some classes,
which resulted in over crowding
in many of them.
But wait, all is not lost. A few of
these programs are trickling
back.
For instance we know we are
getting $20,000-25,000 from the
government’s
Emergency
Employment Act, but what we
don't know is how much state aid
we will receive yet, according to
Principal Gerrit Klomp.
We know that right now the
adm instration is going over a list
of priorities, from the most to the
least important, for the incoming
money to be spent on. Already a
new speech teacher has been
hired and a new janitor will soon
be added to the payroll.
But, it will take more money
than the Emergency Em­
ployment Act and State Aid can
grant us to bring back last year’s
programs that were cut.
Al most the Emergency funds
are a stop-gap effort. Wpat
happens next year? When will
our public schools quit being the
target of politicians?
Maybe the public would like an
answer to this question, too. We
students sure do--it's our
education that is at stake.

The director of the Y.M.C.A.
and Youth Council in Hastings,
Robert King, has been taken for
granted at Hastings High School
for many years. He has been an
asset to the school, a fact many
students don’t realize.
- y
There are three Tri-H-Y clubs
in Hastings. The Tri-H-Y Beta is
a club for junior girls, and the
Tri-H-Y Alpha is limited to senior
girls, who are sponsors of the
annual Sno-ball dance in
December. Junior and senior
boys can join the Hi-Y.
These clubs go to the Youth
Legislature in Lansing each year
for three days and form a mock
government. Students from all
over Michigan take part in this,
and thanks to Mr. King, so does
Hastings.
King is also the man who runs
the dances held al the high
school. The Beta and Alpha girls
set up committees to work with
Mr. King at the dances.
Y-basketbail, judo lessons and
many other activities are offered
at our school because we have
such a great man as Mr. King.
Hastings High owes many
thanks to this man. We could
never repay him for all that he
has done.

This Christmas many United
States citizens are boycotting the
buying of gifts in protest of the
Viet Nam “war”. Some of the
goods people buy are made by
companies that support the war.
Others support the war silently,
but while the war is supported it
will go on.
Instead of buying gifts lhere
are many things that could be
made from ordinary household
articles. For instance, wall paper
paste or flour can be mixed with
water and used in paper mache to
make
jeweiry
and
toys.
Aluminum foil can Le formed to
make Christmas tree decorations
and gifts.
The people of this country don’t
realize what they themselves
could do to stop this war.

On Thursday and Friday TK
students were spared two af­
ternoons of scholastic drudgery
because of Parent-Teacher
Conferences. They attended first,
second and third hours on
Thursday, and consecutively,
sixth, fifth and fourth hour
classes on. Friday. This offered a
welcome, if not well-earned,
break in the monotony.
Also on Friday students
balloted for the Homecoming
Queen and had a pep assembly to
booster spirits for the game with
Lee.
The sophomores chose a
traditional design for their class
rings, rectangular with a square
stone. They were fitted on
Monday, October 25, by a
representative of the Josten
Company.

The evening was concluded with a Homecoming dance

�Maple Valley coaches are continuina their quest for a good
league in which to compete athletically. Wednesday. Oct. 20, Maple
Valley was turned down at Potterville for admission to the Central
Michigan Athletic Conference which includes DeWitt, Portland St.
Pats, Laingsburg and Potterville. Really, Class B Maple Valley is too
big, 577 in nigh school, for that wheel. The school now has applied for
admission to the Tri-Central which includes Portland, Saranac,
Central Montcalm, Lakeview, Montabella and Carson City. Fulton
Middleton is dropping out after this football season.
Gull Lake is also searching for a good league, and Coach Dave
Matheson has dreams that one might be developed among schools in
this area. That would provide great rivalry and eliminate extensive
travel. We understand that Alma will ask out of the West Central
Conference, a move which will meet with favor among many. We’ll
miss the new Alma athletic facilities.

Note For Fishermen

Cold-weather boaters should beware. An unexpected swim could
be disastrous as colder water cuts survival time. Coast Guard
’’Expectancy of Survival Chart” should be noted by Great Lakes
fishermen-and they are based on the assumption that the victim was
wearing a flotation device and is afloat in the water: 32.5 degrees
water temperature, 15 minutes to exhaustion or unconsciousness,
survival time, 1545 min., 32.5 to 40 degrees, 15-30 minutes to
exhaustion, 30-90 minutes survival time; 40-50 degrees, 3ty» minutes,
1 to 3 hours survival time. With hundreds of area sportsmen and
women going after salmon, knowledge on how to survive in the water
is a necessity. The Coast Guard Auxiliary offers a free Hunter­
Fisherman Basic Boating Course. Write: Director of Auxiliary, 9th
Coast Guard District, New Federal Building. 1240 E. 9th Street,

Martin Corners Church
On Feb. 6th. 1887, Rev. John B. Knott called a meeting of the
members of the church al the Marlin Schoolhouse to convene on Feb.
10 for the purpose of election a board of trustees and making
arrangements to erect a church edifice. Members of its first board of
trustees were: Dejos Hopkins, Fredrick Barry. Benjamin McIntosh,
William Joslin and Jesse Townsend.
Fredrick Barry then gave them one half acre of land on Section 8,
across from the schoolhouse, as a building site which was thankfully
received. In August of the same year the building committee reported
the solicitors had obtained $450 in cash and $105 in work on their
subscription papers.
On Sept. 6th they had a bee to excavate and commence the work
preparatory to building the church.
At a meeting of the! building committee on April 28. 1888 it was
decided to hire the work done by the day. A Mr. Keiser was hired as
head carpenter atid $1.75 a day and board with W.H. Patten to help
him at $1.25 a day and board himself. Thus was the work begun and
carried to completion. The dedication of the Church was in 1888 under
i he pastorate of W.D. Rowland.
During the pastorates of Revs. M.E. Hoyt and Karl Keefer a lol of
digging and excavating under the church was begun and completed.
11 lias been a long and Christ-centered history since the first Ladies
Aid Society was organized in 1894. but we stand todgyanxious to
sc rve the community with Church School at 9 and Preaching Service
at 10 each Sunday morning.

Guest Editorial

By Rev. Mrs. Esther L. Cox
,
,,
.
Perhaps it is because I was once a Girl Scout (and would rather
have been a Boy Scout) that I find it desirable to "be prepared.’’ But
the basis, for this feeling, is not the result of preparedness and that is
what I would like to write of in the space granted me today. The result
of preparation.
There are in the stores Hallowe'en masks and costumes..the stores
are prepared to earn by their readiness for your purchasing. Did you
know that they order in late Winter for their early Fall sales. By now
most of their Thanksgiving promotional supplies have arrive^ and
the Christmas fare will al) &gt;oo soon be displayed with urgingsthat we
should "shop early." (The Children in Byron Center are out with their
Christmas card boxes.)
•
Thus we are urged to prepare for the immediate limes, for the
everpresent customs and mores. The present is always with us; it
presses in upon us and takes from our minds the future. Think of the
now ... this is the NOW generation And that has some value! We do
not live in another generation than the one we £re presently
established in.
But, the Bible tells us there is life beyond, a next life, or more ac­
curately a continuation of this life in a more advanced form, a place
of many mansions prepared. And so I would like to ask you are you
prepared for your mansion? There is also the opposite place most
commonly called Hell. Will* your mansion stand vacant or will it be
reasigned to someone else?
.
We sing of "mansions over the hill lop,” of«e "home in glory land .
and of "cabins in tho sky” with vim and vigor and hope. Yet we must
ask ourselves are we prepared for that "place not made with hands”
which wails in the Heaven for us?
My friends, it is lhere. Jesus said If it were not so would 1 have
told you that I go and prepare a place for you^If/there is not a home
in the Heaven with Fod then, Jesus, the perfect one is a liar! Harsh

W&lt;Th&amp; sameJesus also told us how to gel to that home. "He that
loselh his life for my sake shall find 1L” (Matt. 10:39) We are told to
take up our cross and follow... and then in John (11:25,26) we read "I
am the way the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me,
though he were dead, yet shall he live; and whosoever liveth and
believeth in me shall never die.”
x
This is the summation of the hope of God. This is the basic
requirement of faith and preparation. For we must believe before we
can understand his words to Nicodemus “Ye must be born again.”
Unless we, through faith in Christ, desire to be prepared for the future
it does us no good that the Scriptures say "Repent and be baptised for
the remission of sins."
Your home is prepared. The celebration of the marriage feast of the
Lamb is* awaiting your arrival. The housewarming is ready. ARE
YOU?

This is the type of whirlpool bath the Jaycees are purchasing for
use at the Barry Medical Facility, and they hope the original drive
started by Mrs. Jean McArthur will be successful so a second unit can
be purchased. The bath has the hydraulic lift and the sit-in design
allows a greater number of patients to utilize it without the
discomfort of straightening out their legs. Not only does the unit
improve cleanliness, but it improves circulation and the patients love
it. All but three patients at the facility need two persons to help them
bath.

I COMMENTS ON THE WAR
by Mortimer C. Nichols

I1

"VIETNAM PERSONALITIES"
Harry Truman was an ardent advocate of communist con­
tainment. When General Eisenhower was elected to succeed him as
President, he was very anxious for what he called “an orderly
transfer of government” and a continuation of the Truman foreign
policy, especially the support of the French in their war with the Viet
Minh. There was much correspondence and many briefings and
conferences. I suspect that General Eisenhower, with his distaste for
detail, might well have been bored.
President Eisenhower tells in the first volume of his Memoirs of
his Presidency, called JVIandate for Change, how he found, the
situation in Vietnam-when he todk office. He observed that, “China
had been lost to the Communists and such a thing must not happen
again...That the French could easily have overcome the rebellion of
the Viet Minh if they had not become so demoralized by their defeat in
the Second World War... And that the rich resources.of oil, rubber and
tin in South Vietnam should not be allowed to fall into Communist
hands.”
As it became evident that the French were losing the war with the
Viet Minh, they appealed to President Eisenhower for American
troops to turn the tide, and Richard Nixon, then Vice President, urged
the President to support the French with the American air-force. He
refused to do either one and gave as his reasons, that he did not want
American troops to be commanded by the French and that the
French were not handling the war to advantage; and he did not want
to be in the position of supporting colonialism.
In appraising the political situation in Vietman, after the victory
. of the Viet Minh led by Ho Chi Minh over the French, President
Eisenhower made the following statement, “All the knowledgeable
people I have talked with assure me that in a free election in the
whole of Vietnam between Ho Chi Minh and Bao Dai, Ho Chi Minh
would get 80 percent of the vote.”
x
The Prime Minister of Sweden in a panel discussion in
Washington quoted this statement by President Eisenhower and
observed that preventing the overwhelming 4 to 1 preference of a
people from being put into effect was an odd way to promote
democracy.
It had long been an American military axiom not to engage in a
land war on the mainland of Asia. General Ridgeway, who succeeded
General MacArthur in Korea, tells in his Memoirs how President
Eisenhower asked him to study the feasibility of occupying South
Vietnam with American troops. General Ridgeway made an un­
favorable report, citing among other things, the inadequacy of the
harbors, the insufficiency of the warehouses, the lack of air fields and
the terrain with its jungles and forests and swamps, so unsuited to
American methods of warfare, and the climate, so unfavorable to
Americans, and the disposition of the people who cared nothing for
American democracy and wanted to be let alone, and their dislike for
foreigners. They'had gotten rid of the French and wouldn't like the
Americans any better. General Ridgeway observed at the end that if
his report had any influence on President Eisenhower’s decision not
to put American troops in South Vietnam, he would be very happy
that he had made the(study.
According to the newspaper accounts of the Pentagon Papers,
some of President Eisenhower’s advisors tried to gel the French and
the British to put troops into South Vietnam in'conjunction with
American troops. They both refused. They then urged President
Eisenhower to put American troops into South Vietnam, but he
steadfastly refused.

Your Apples
Will Keep" Cool
To protect the flavor and
texture of apples, store them
where it's cool and moist,
recommends a Michigan Stale
University consumer marketing
information agent.
Apples kept in cold storage (32
to 35 degrees in 80 to 85 percent
humidity) stay fresh up to three
dr four months, reports Miss Ada
Shinabarger.
•
Store apples in the refrigerator
when possible. Otherwise, choose
a place where they will keep cool
but not freeze.
Stored apples should be kept
covered away from strongflavored foods, and sorted often.
“By doing this, your apples will
stay fresh for up to two weeks,”
Miss Shinabarger says.
PROVIDE SCHOLARSHIP-Ted Egleston (left), president of the
Hastings Jaycees, and Roger Raber presented a check for $131 to
Mrs. Caroline Dimmers (left) and Mrs. Jane Evans, teacher, for
semester's scholarship to the new Humpty Dumpty Pre-School which
now has 18 children being prepared for enrollment in regular grades.
The Jaycees wanted to make sure that a special child received the
same benefits as other youngsters. Gene Hayes is chairman of the
Jaycees scholarship fund raising.-Banner photo.

�CB Radio Club Vows To Keep Trophy
“We’re going to keep that
trophy for another year, "Bob
Ingram, Citizens Band Radio
Club President, confidenlally
stated as he referred to the an­
nual Christmas Parade float
trophy awarded each year by the
Hastings Area Chamber of
Commerce.
Ingram didn’t indicate what
Aliis year’s entry would be except
M will be unique and original and
follow lhe theme “The Gift of
Christmas."
“We're looking forward to
participating in this year's
parade?' Ingram states, "and
will be working exceptionally
hard to win lhe trophy again.”
This marks the third con­
secutive year the Chamber has
presented the revolving trophy to
the winning organization. In 1969,
Grace Wcslyan Church won the
coveted honor. The CBer’s
champion float last year was a
candle with a propane flame.
Inscribed at one end of the float
was "If everyone lit just one little
candle...”
This year’s parade is scheduled

for Saturday, December 4 at 1:30
P.M. and is only a portion of
“Super Saturday.” A children’s
Christmas program, “The Gift of
Christmas”, with television
personality Deputy Dave who is
seen weekdays on Channel 6 at 4
P.M., will be staged at 10 A.M. in
the west gymnasium of the
Junior High School. At noon, a
contingent of area church ohoirs
will present festive, holiday
selections on the Court House
lawn. Adam Offenbecker will
direct.
Bob
Johnson,
Chamber
manager, urges all organizations
interested in participating with a
float or similar activity, to
contact the Chamber of Com­
merce office no later than
November 1. Floats will be
judged this year prior to the

�Need Forces Mothers
To Grasp At
.
ADC Assistance
Some persons may be on ADC
(Aid to Dependent Children)
because they like it, but the most
of the mothers grasp at that
assistance
because
they
desperately need it, members of
the Hastings Rotary Club were
told Monday noon, Oct. 18, at
their regular luncheon at lhe
Hotel Hastings.
1
And the young mother who told
them ought to know-she was on
ADC for two months so that she
could feed her children.
And she is now one of four
former ADC mothers who have
worked into jobs with the Barry
County Dept, of Social Services.
The mother was a member of a
panel led by Mrs. Beatrice
Fisher, director of the Social
Services unit, along with Susan
Breyer’, casework supervisor,
and Ronald Decker, social
worker in charge of the Work
Incentive Program.
This was the second ap­
pearance of Mrs. Fisher and
some of her workers before the
Rotary Club. They continued
their discussion and explanation
of the many services provided by
their office. They reemphasized
that they make no policy, but
follow the rules established by
the Federal and State govern­
ment, and those made by the
Barry Social Services Board.
Decker explained that his
special WIN program was
designed to help persons
receiving public assistance to
become gainfully employed.
The department also has a
work program in which able
bodied men work out their direct
county relief at the rate of $1.65
an hour. TheyAvork for the Road
Commission, Woodland, at the
Courthouse, Charlton Park and
Medical Care Facility.
The former ADC mother told
the Rotarians that she knows just
how the women on ADC feel, and
how difficult it was for her to
bring herself around to asking for
help. Now she helps with the ADC
budgeting, doing a lot of the
detail work to permit the trained
personnel to devote more time to
the more difficult work.
Mrs. Fisher explained that
Barry County was the first to
develop a program in which ADC
mothers were trained and given jobs in the Social Services of­
fices. Now, many other countries
have similar programs.
Mrs. Fisher said that at one '
time it was believed that the best
welfare program wps the
cheapest, or least costly to the
taxpayers. Now the best one is
the one which does the best for
the community.
Questioned on food stamps, it
was explained that there are 259
.
Barry County families with 966
people receiving food stamps,
and no other public assistance.
Decker told riis audience that
more than 50 percent of the
people he works with do want to
get off the welfare and support
themselves.
Maybe one percent of those on
welfare are dishonest. Mrs.
Fisher said her staff had un­
covered four fraud cases in
recent weeks and they had been
turned over to the prosecutor. A •
food stamp fraud was uncovered,
with a recipient receiving stamps
in Calhoun and Barry County.
“People can't get away with zv
anything vep’ long,” it was said.
“Many neighbors or others
report them. And they should.”
Decker added that a majority
of people take public help
because they have to. “We
always hear about the bad guys,”
he said.

The current county subsidy to
the two ambulance services
began March 1, 1969. Central
Ambulance agreed to provide
ambulance service to the
townships of Thomapple, Yankee
Springs,
Irving,
Rutland,
Carlton, Hastings and Woodland,
and to inclusive villages and the
city of Hastings.
They also provide service to
the Barry County Medical
Facility, supplemental service to
Castletown and Maple Grove
townships and air ambulance
service to any Barry County
resident. The company receives
an annual $17,184.16 subsidy.
William’s contract specifies

ambulance service for Barry,
Hope, Orangeville, Baltimore
and Praireville townships and
inclusive villages. The annual
county subsidy for this company
is $8,000.
Both companies are required
by the contract to have one fully
equipped ambulance available at
all times, to provide two at­
tendants on each ambulance call,
one of whom must be a holder of
an advanced First Aid Certificate
or its equivalent, to meet state
Medicaid and federal Medicare
requirements, and to maintain
services and equipment which
comply with slate laws.
To qualify for the subsidy both
companies agreed to a minimum

ity insurance of not less
than $250,000 per person for
bodily damage, $500,000 per
occurrence for bodily injury and
$25,000 for property damage.
These subsidies resulted from
bids from five ambulance ser­
vices accepted in 1969 by the
Board of Commissioners;

Raising Drive
The students of Hastings High
School, under the direction of the
High Scfipol Faculty, are plan­
ning their first major hind
raising program. The Stuoent
Council is sponsoring a magazine
sale campaign through Quality
School Products Inc.
The Hastings Board of
Education has approved the fund
raising program to enable the
Student Council to finance the
classes of the school as well as
many of the all school activities
that are experiencing financial
difficulties.
It is hoped that expenses
related to Homecoming, Junior­
Senior Prom and Saxon Year­
book, as well as other activities

will be covered by the money
earned through the sale of
magazine subscriptions.
All high school students will be
encouraged to participate in the
campaign. Emphasis will be
placed on students selling
renewals of magazine sub­
scriptions to which parents and
friends already subscribe. There
will be no high pressure sales or

’Robert VanderVeen said.
It is hoped that the student
involvement in the fund raising
as well as in the student council

educational experience. If
successful it could become an
annual event for the Student
Council, Principal VanderVeen
said.

“Involvement 72" program and wish it all success. If it does not find
all the answers immediately, it at least should get us thinking and
acting along the line of what is good for Hastings and Barry county.
It lakes not only good intentions but more especially consistent
work and enthusiasm to get anywhere in these highly competitive
times in which we live.
“Involvement 72" is a good starting point.
Hastings is too small a community to afford itself the luxury of
factional dissentions and divisions. The recent Hastings Centennial
programs proved what we can accomplish by teamwork-and how
much fun it can be. With proper co-operation from all of us, the
Chamber can really get off the ground and get things accomplished.
Bob Johnson, the Chamber Manager can't be expected to do it all.
It is up to him tofumish ideas and leadership and up to the rest of us
to sort over the various proposals, decide which ones merit priorityand then follow through.
Personally I am glad that among the items being considered is a
project to get the Chamber offices up to street level. Airtip and going
community should have the Chamber headquarters out where
everyone can see-especially people visiting Hastings or even tourists
just passing through. Also, members, themselves, are much more
likely to visit headquarters on street level than they are one located
down a long flight of stairs and into a couple of rooms that never see
the full light of day.

, We, personally, haven't given up the hope that pedestrian walk­
ways can be adopted as temporary expedients to improve conditions
in the State Street retail area until finql decisions are made con­
cerning parking arrangements and other plains now being studied.
It has been the experience in other areas that rules regarding the
pedestrian walkways have been consistently well observed. Holland,
Michigan, has used the walkways for more than a decade without
accident.
It is our. opinion that minor and serious accidents would be less
likely on walkways here than under present traffic conditions on
State Street where cars move at a rapid pace and drivers in most
instances take the right of way with pedestrians left to thread theirway across a wide street against streams of traffic moving^n both
directions. Maybe we have been fortunate here that no fatalities or
bad accidents have happened.
Walkways at their very worst could present no more potential
dangers to the pedestrian than do present traffic conditions-and the
chances are that there would be substantial improvements.
The idea is worth a try and involves very little expense.
In our opinion, the United Nations may ultimately regret the
president it set in removing tne Chinese Nationalist government from
membership in the assembly. If action against a comparatively small
nation is considered ethical and legal merely to seek the goodwill of a
more powerful nation, then any of the smaller nations can consider
themselves as mere pawns in political power plays by the major
nations.
If there is anything to the principle of self determination-and
many of lhe present smaller nalions.came into being as a result of
this principle-then it is important to remember that the government
of Nationalist China includes 14 million people who fleithe'ftTainland
to form their own system of rule because they wanted no payt of
communism.
By acting as it did against the government of Taiwan, the United
Nations has demoted the principle of self determination to a place of
very minor importance.
As of now, the UN action is a stunning diplomatic defeat for the
United States-a sharp slap in the face, one might say. Maybe we
needed this sort of a setback to force a change in our foreign policy
which, in the opinion of many, has been on too free and easy a basis.
Old “Uncle Sugar" was always a reliable soft touch. Dollar
diplomacy never has and never will work. Reliable friends cannot be
bought with cash. A more realistic approach to foreign aid could save
us countless millions of dollars and be better for all concerned.
When something considerate is said of the United States by a
foreign nation, that is news and for most of us enjoyable reading.
Thus the following editorial that appeared in “The Citizen,"
Gloucester, England is worth a careful perusal:
"Americans in general, and Mrs. Richard Nixon in particular,
are in process of learning a bitter lesson th6t Britain learned long
since namely that leading and defending the free world istiot only a
desperately costly task, in terms of cash as well as blood, but a
thankless one too. Gratitude among nations is a rare virtue indeed.
“It is no wonder that the Americans are bewildered and angry or
that lhe voices of isolationism are gaining in volume. In the post-war
years America has poured out money and material aid unstintingly to
help wartorn nations, both friends and ex-enemies, back to their feet
and to serve thecause of freedom and democracy.
“All too often her reward has been a slap in the face. Criticizing
the U.S. has become a popular world-wide pastime.
.
“Because of the immense financial burden she has borne for the
free world America'now faces grave economic problems and a
balance of payments deficit of billions of doltwrs. The measures she
has been foi ced to take to remedy the position have.been greeted with
howls of protest.
«
’ “American tourists caught in the backwash have received curt
treatment from the banks, the traders and the hoteliers who hitherto
have been so delighted to handle their now despised dollars. The
reaction of the boorish, and the ungrateful with short memories has
been. 'Serves them rirht They’ve flaunted their wads of the
Almighty Dollar for too long.'
•
The ex-enemy nations, so generously treated by America and
now fat with gold and dollars, show little signs of belated gratitude.
Germany still gets her defense on the cheap and Japan floods U.S.
markets with low-wage costed goods whilst retaining her own
protective trade barriers.
Before we squeal about the effect of Mr. Nixon's 10 percent im­
port surcharge on our own export trade, let us recall not only
America’s generous financial aid during our post-war econpmic
crises but the 15 percent surcharge imposed in November. 1964, by
Mr. Wilson's government.
“and before the antbAmerican brigade starts celebrating the
current misfortunes of its bete noir let it reflect that if America takes
a bad economic tumble, lhe rest of the Western. world, including
Britain, will collect a lot of bruises.
•/
"Two other unpleasant consequences should give them food for
thought—the likely withdrawals of U.S. forces from Europe and the

possibility of Western Europe being faced with the full bill for her own
defense.
“We may disagree with some American policies and regret the
mistakes she has made, but we still owe her a great debt of gratitude
for the help she has given to those who needed help desperately. Now
is the time to pay that debt, with understanding and what help we can
give her."
We wish that many of our own writers and commentators would
show the same sympathy and understanding of the United States as
did the English editorialist in far away Gloucester.

Doing an outstanding job as
field general for the Saxons was
Ted Fitzgerald, who must be one
of the main reasons Coach Jerry
Eckman has that continuous
smile. Only 152 pounds and 5’9”,
Ted can run with the best of them
and generally throws a good ball.
His success in the air was limited
at Mason, but it wasn’t crucial.
Ted’s punting has been better
than average, and he’s even hit
the coffin comer. Ted will go
down in the record books as one
of the best quarterbacks in
modem Blue &amp; Gold history.
Coach Eckman was high in
his praise for ail of his regulars
after Friday’s game.* Brad Foltz,
who had seen some action
previously, started in Chuck
Heath’s spot and chewed up
nearly 50 yeards and made one
touchdown. Diminutive Jeff
Bishop, Carl Norris, Steve

individual efforts.

Along the Sidelines: Tom Hoke, former HHS ace who has been a
starting defensive tackle for the Alma College football team,
sustained a broken leg in Alma's 33-2 victory over Albion. Alma
coaches report that Hoke has been tough all season, and averaged
between six and 10 unassisted tackles per game before his injury.
Alma, in lhe thick of the MIAA title race, always counts on its defense
for a strong performance. "Hoke will be sorely missed,” was the
report from the north...HHS Athletic Director Jock Clarey and
Ionia’s Chuch Kohloff were among lhe many who turned out last week

Open House At Rifle, Trap Range Set
Members of the Barry Con­
servation Club have scheduled an
open house on Sunday, Nov. 17, as
one of the events to celebrate
November as National Rifle
Association Month.
From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. the
Conservation Club’s range will be
open to everyone to sight-in their
rifles, and the trap field will be
open for shooting from 12 noon to
4 p.m.
Refreshments
will
be
available.
Bernard Tobias, president,
pointed out that the NRA is
celebrating its 100th anniversary.

The Association was organized
in November, 1871, bringing
organization to the sport of target
shooting. Within two years of its
founding, NRA had formed a U.S.
team that was issuing a world­
wide challenge
to
longestablished shooting federations
in other countries.
The local club was originally
known as the Barry County
Sportsman’s Club, organized in
1946 with James Matthews as the
first president. In 1965 the club
became known as the Con­
servation Club. It now has 196
members.

stood there with his mouth
agape and stared. Presently the
young lady inquired. "Sir. can
you help me?" He replied. "No.
ma’am. I’m just looking." Il’s
usually the other way around.
Our customers feel welcome to
com'e in and "just look”*, browse
around and see all the new

pressive selection of the newest
colors and styles, displayed in a
way that you can see in a
matter of minutes, a panorama
of shoes, from lhe window...to
the inside...all the way to the
fitting stool. And you can feel
perfectly at ease "just

there for!

(
The greatest problem in the world today is not alcohol’. Nor isjt^
pollution, narcotic abuse or wars.
What, then, you ask is the world’s greatest problem? Let the words
of the Bible answer you. In the command given to the rich young ruleT '
••Follow me.”- in the telling to the man who first wanted to say
goodby to his family, “Don't look back”-in the two great com­
ma HiTarda beautiful message on love and brotherhood, It was all
but erased from my mind when the youth later gave his opinion of a
police officer and of the judge who sentenced him
I heard a wonderful interpretation of the love of God and love
toward God from a man who wanted an exception made in his case so
he could continue in his immorality!
A youth said to me, "I believe in Jesus Christ as my personal
Savior, but the way you have been trying to express it has failed.
There is still war, hunger, and poverty. I must try my way. I must
give of me.”
She had lhe answer.
The greatest problem in the world today is not racial tension, nor
poverty, hunger of social unrest. It is the problem which has existed
since time began. Man does not follow God..man looks back and
becomes unfit for the kingdom instead of looking ahea,d to see how he
can plow lhe next furrow for God. MAN DOES NOT LOVE ENOUGH.
The great, seemingly insurmountable problem, is that man is not
close enough to the God whom he professes. He hears the commands
from afar, like a faint voice whispering in the wilderness and he
stands in the forest not seeing the woods for lhe trees.
The problem can be solved. ..when men come together in faith ana
love and allowing for the different understandings follow the Master
to the cross and to life eternal. Then and only then when they love as
he taught will the problems of alcohol, drug abuse, poverty etc., be

Jesus saves because of love...this is the agreement of the Christian
faith which lhe world must be rebuilt in.
.

vBut how does one show his love of God, if not through his love for his

Have you ever noticed how
some commercials imply things
that are not true? Some hint that
if you use their mouthwash or
deodorant Jyour life will change
for the better. Remember the one
that said if you didn’t shower
with their soap you should be
expecting a “put down”?
The commercial which the high
school students agreed was the
worst was the one about the
asprin man. In it a man tells a
group of people to ask him a lot of
ridiculous questions about his
product, ana finally he implies
that it is a cure-all.
Most of them, however, are not
that bad. Have you heard this
song from a popular com­
mercial: “I’d like to teach the
world to sing in perfect har­
mony?” This soft-drink ad­
vertisement was voted most
popular with the students. A
large crowd of young people of
different nationalities are shown
singing on top of a mountain. The
song is so good it sounds as if it
should be made into a record.
Perhaps the best philosophy
about commercials is to take the
bad with the good.

I would like to refute an
editorial which appeared in the
TK Trumpet (the high school
paper) October 15, concerning
television commercials. Gran­
ted. there are some pretty absurd
ones bouncing about the ether
waves., but the two designated
were improperly compared. If
they arc the-most and the least
favored of the high school, then a
serious discrepancy exists in our
consumer attitudes.
In theory, the purpose of
commercials is to inform the
consumer of the virtues of a
certain product. In reality, they
have deviated from this stan­
dard. They are now regarded as a
form of entertainment. Too often,
the results have not been
pleasant. Therefore, I will judge
the aspirin and soft drink com­
mercials as sources of in­
formation. not entertainment.
The aspirin man is not asked “a
lot of ridiculous questions." They
are sound, logical questions and
are met with sound logical an­
swers. an attribute vital to an
advertisement of any medicine.
He does not imply "that it is a
cure-all," but merely states that
it is of equal, if not greater than,
effectiveness as its competitors.
This statement would appear to
be validated by its continued

preeminence in a field of ap­
parent “cure-alls." Such an
honest, if not entertaining, ap­
proach is a refreshing change
from the standard fare.
The soft drink commercial, on
the other hand, is entertainment
all the way. It appeals to the
senses, not the intellect. It gets
your attention with a catchy tune
in the hope that only one word
will be remembered, the name of
the product. And the soft drink
people are justified in doing this'.
They appeal mainly to the young
generation, which is famous for
its misuse and disuse of any
intellect. Besides, this soft drink
is a household word. Why bother
to tell the consumer what he
alread knows about it when there
are so many things that he
doesn’t know about aspirin!
Hence, a different form of ad­
vertising is needed, which in­
validated the former com­
parison.
Until the day when people
chuck down aspirins like they
swig soft drinks, it will remain
invalidated.
By Mark Andrews
Maple Valley High School

Mankind must stop disrupting
the balance of nature, or he will
destroy himself.
One of today’s major worries is
the pollution of the land, water
and sky. Everyone is worried
about it, or at least I hope
everyone is, but very little is
being done to combat air
pollution. In class last week some
of the kids were saying that man
can't progress without making
some kind of pollution.
/Xs for the pollution of the
water, we can’t really afford to
stand by and watch. Our growing
population is going to use more
and more water and eventually
we will probably be planting food
on the floor of the ocean. If water
pollution continues to. go un­
checked. the sea may not be a fit
place to grow food in a few years.
(.and pollution is the most
noticeable type of pollution at the
moment.
Tin
cans
lay
everywhere, rusty old abandoned
cars lay rotting everywhere, and
wildlife is being pushed out of
more and more land as people
continue to build more and more
homes.
People are complaining about
pollution and many groups are
picking up the roadsides, but all
of this does little good, as long as
there are some people who don't
care. They quickly put twice as
much litter and trash in the areas
that these hardworking people
tried to pick up.
When will people learn? By the
time they do it will be too late.

FFA Meeting Decision ToMake
By Debbie Wright
Held At MV
Where to after high school? A

By Diane Betts
Maple Valley high school
sponsored the annua) fall
meeting of the Region 4 Future
Homemaker’s of America,
Saturday, October 23. Mrs. Olith
Hamilton and her FHA group
acted as hostesses.
Nine Chapters attended this
meeting with 100 girls present. 15
from
Maple Valley. The
ceremony was geared around
caring for yourself and com­
munity. The main title of the
program was. “Caring for
Yourself’. Lunch was served in
the cafeteria to all girls, and a
special luncheon was served in
the Home Economics room for all
advisors. Entertainment
throughout lunch was provided
by Bob Nelson’s group.
The discussion continued
through the afternoon, covering
present and future items.
The program at 9:00 a.m. in­
cluded music and the opening
ceremony, plus a time for all to
get acquainted before lunch ,
which was fun for all. Michigan
State University’s Drug Center
presented good information
concerning drugs with different
speakers. At 2:35 the closing
ceremony was presented by
President Gloria Grant, Reading.
Girls attending the program
report a very busy and enjoyable
day at Maple Valley.

Veterans Speak
At MV Assembly
By Jerry Carpenter
The Veterans’ Day assembly
was quite different from previous
years
at Maple Valley. The
students were honored to have
several veterans speak of their
involvement in the wars of this
century.
Mr. Bostrum reminisced about
his experiences in World War I,
Mr. Jim Shaffer spoke of World
War II, Mr. Tom Mateer
discussed the Korean War and
Mr. Larry Thompson told about
the war in Viet Nam.
Some topics that were men­
tioned in these speeches were
drug use among GI’s, conditions
in the war hospitals; feelings of
our fighting men toward the war
itself and the GI’s oninions about
the Sobth Vietnamese people.
The chorus sang "This Is My
Country", "Miseri Mei" and
"Exocus" under the direction of
Mrs. Diane Dryden.
Student Council committee
members deserve special credit
for sponsoring such a meaningful
assembly.

career in mind? What college to
attend9 These, among others, are
a few puzzlers tromping through
the minds of juniors and seniors
at MV.
To help students make
decisions about their futures and
advise in certain vocations,
representatives and admission
counselors from various colleges
in Michigan are speaking to
interested juniors and seniors.
Admission counselors from
University of Michigan, Alma
College. Kellogg Community
College and Ferris State College
have spoken to students
previously, and many more are
scheduled for the coming year.
Seniors
presently
are
registering to take the Michigan
Compelitve
Scholarship
Examination at nearby testing
centers.
Various students presently
filling out applications for
colleges also are required to lake
ACT or SAT exams. Deadlines
for registration dates art) coming
up quick!

The long-awaited family living
education program at Delton
Schools has finally begun. The
classes are now available only
for first and second grades but
are planned to expand. By the
end of this year the course is
hoped to reach the sixth grade,
and the following year should
extend from kindergarten to
twelfth grade.
The program began in Sep­
tember. 1970 when the Delton
School Administration asked
members of the community to
participate on a committee to
learn the needs of children in the
area of family living education.
The committee is composed of
about 16 members, representing
eight different churches. All the
members are parents of children
from kindergarten to high school.
There are almost equal numbers
of men and women.
The first part of the 1970-71
school year was spent observing
other schools to listen to speakers
on family living education. The
committee met once a week last
year and now meets about once a
mouth to handle any problems
which might arise.
With the help of Mrs. Delores
Mohn, a counselor at Delton
Schools, films were made
available for the committee’s
use. and through much research
a curriculum was developed. The
curriculum was presented to the
School Board and was approved.
An outline was also drawn up
within the proposed guidelines of
the Michigan State Board of
Education.
Two public meetings were held
for parents last year, others are
scheduled for this year. The
children seem interested and
appear to enjoy the class. Many
teachers and the majority of
citizens approve the program
and are anxious to have it started
in othor grades.
The program puts more em­
phasis on the responsibility and
emotional aspects than on the
, biological side of this type of
education.' As Mrs. James
Lauderdale, a resident of Delton
and chairman of the committee,
puts it: "The emphasis in this
program is on a student coming
to know himself and being able to
relate to others in a healthy,
happy way."

History Class Has
Latin Festival
By Ken Garlinger
Mrs. Julia Swartz’s Myths and
Legends dass has studied Greek
and Roman history, and recently
participated in skits and cooking
Greek and Roman dishes.
One skit consisted of Marilyn
Shoup and Sena Stark in a short
play revolving around Atlanta, a
Greek lady who offended the
goddesses.
The projects included weapons
made m ancient times, a shield
and dagger made by Gayle Vliek
and a maze by Tom Wennacett.
Roberta Taylor created a statue
representing Zeus, and John
Dunham and Dennis Bellet made
a lyre, an instrument which
ancient Greeks and Romans
played,

The curriculum is designed to
teach children how to get along
better with members of the
family and to adjust to adult
family life. Classes are based on
the emphasis of attitudes, values
and the recognition and
utilization of an individual. The
class is taught by teachers who
have been trained in this line of
education and is held once a week
for four weeks.

TK Briefs
By Tim Moore
Ten senior students ____
from

The ten seniors are Jim An­
ders. Ron Gallup, Sherri McNew,

October 28.

The new swimming pool has
opened for a Senior Life-Saving
course.
Plans for a trip to the Bahamas

accompanied by Mr. Duane
Thatcher, are being finalized.

The Editorial opinions
expressed here are
not necessarily the
opinions of The
Hastings Banner or
staff.

Despite the bad weather
Friday night, October 22, there
was a * big ' turnout M- the
Homecoming game.
The freshman float was a white
and orange covered wagon. The
theme, in orange, said “Rolling
Over the Rebels to Victory."
Becky Fields, excorted by Andy
Saldivar, was the freshman
choice for the court.
Five sophomore Egyptian
slaves pulled the sophomore
float, the theme of which was
Goddess of Love". The float was
white, decorated with a grove of
palm trees. "Goddess" Connie
Eavey was escorted by Jerry
Phillips.
The title of best float was
awarded to the junior creation. A
peacock (NBC style) with multi­
colored tail feathers in orange,
blue, green, and yellow, bore the
inscription "NBC Announces TK
Victory." Kim Anders and Dan
Kiel were the frosting on the
winning “cake".
A ship of Columbus vintage
was the senior float. Green,
trimmed in gold, the ship had two
masts, one of which was topped
'with a crow’s nest.
The Queen candidates were
Joy Senneker, escorted by Kim
Appel, and Barb Greiner,
escorted by Tim Moore.
During half-time Barb Greiner
was announced as the new
Homecoming Queen. Last year’s
Queen, Debbie Sanderson Cole,
relinquished her crown to Barb
Cay Velderman presented Barb
with red roses, and football
captain Bob Middleton gave her
the traditional kiss.
Many alumni attended the
dance, which featured the
"Proud Flesh”, a group from
Ypsilanti. Except for no refresh­
ments and a half hour break by
the band, it was a good evening
with a good band.
The Student Council was in
charge of all arrangements. Cay
Velderman was chairman.

reaction of observers, downtown
retailers and the judges it is
evident that every effort should
be made to stage another contest
next year. The retail division of
the Chamber wishes to thank the
retailers for the use of windows,
the judges and anyone else who in
any way contributed to the
success of the contest.

The talent of Mary Barnett
earned a first place in the 10-11-12
grade ‘division with this very
artistic painting of a pumpkin­
headed scarecrow, embellished
very well in the traditional
theme. She did her work on the
window at Birke’s Shoe Store,

receiving a $7.50 prize. She is the
daughter of the John Barnetts,
903 E. Mill.
Special congratulations to all of
these young people for con­
tributing their extraordinary
talent to the success of the
window painting contest.

the Provincial house, the
projectionist Alma Czinder,
activity director.
During the meeting Mrs.
Florence Wilson, head librarian,
presented the library’s annual
report. After seven years in
operation the library has
holdings of over 20,200 volumes
with 1,250 books added during the
1970-71 fiscal year. Shelves,
however, have become so
overcrowded that duplicate
copies of books must be housed in
the basement. In 1970-71 almost
36,000 books circulated of which
1414 were loaned by the Delton
Community Library.
Michigan libraries receive
much of their funding from
county penal fines, a fact
disparaged by librarians. While
libraries are intended as a
positive factor in the community,
they must operate with money
derived from punitive means.
The amount received last year
was $1,000 less than the previous
year because these funds are
being diverted to help cover
county court costs, she said.
Locally, the library also receives
funds from county board con­
tracts, memorial gifts, and
money raised by the Friends of
the Library.

"VIETNAM PERSONALITIES"

I

|

I

(continued)
The Eisenhower administration supplied the Diem government
with money, military supplies and a large staff of advisors including
military personnel to recruit, equip, and train a native army.
After the victory of the Viet Minh over the French, North Viet­
nam had a large and wll equipped army and a strong and effective
government and a united people devoted to their cause, to make
Vietnam a united communist nation. In South Vietnam, besides the
Viet Cong, there was much division among the non-communlst
elements of the people and opposition to the Diem government,
especially by several large religious sects. Those who were not ac­
tively hostile were indifferent. In view of these contrasting situations,
it would seem unlikely that the Saigon troops, even with the material
and advisory help of the United States, could withstand the power of
the Viet Cong and North Vietnam combined.
Senator John F. Kennedy warned against the policy of the
Eisenhower administration in South Vietnam, which he charac­
terized “as a dangerous step.”
Diem subdued the non-communist opposition and established his
government on a fairly firm basis. It was said that the number of
deaths among the diem dissenters exceeded the number of victims of
the Viet Cong and that imprisonment in the Diem concentration
camps usually had a fatal ending.
The Diem government was tyrannical and oppressive. As an
instance, the presidents of villages and hamlets who had been chosen
by their constituents, were now appointed by the Diem government.
These presidents were a favorite target of the Viet Cong. The
Americans tried to coax Diem into a more liberal policy, hoping thus
to gain popular support for his government. But he spumed such
suggestions.
When the time came, in 1956, to hold the promised election on
reunification, according to the Pentagon Papers, the Americans
advised and encouraged Diem to refuse to have It. Following this, the
Viet Cong and communists from the North took possession of large
areas of the countryside and many villages and hamlets, governing
the people and levying and collecting taxes and storing rice and other
supplies. North Vietman, was meanwhile transporting military
supplies to South Vietnam and Cambodia. &gt;
President Eisenhower does not say much about this period in his
Memoirs, except that near the end of his second volume, called
Waging Peace, in summing up the pleasures and disappointments of
his administration, he says that one of the gratifying things was that
“not one foot of territory had been lost to the communists.
It fell to President John F. Kennedy to be the first to send
American troops into South Vietnam to protect large number of
Americans stationed there. According to the Pentagon Papers,
Robert Kennedy, brother of the President and Attorney General at
the time, was his only advisor who counseled against it. When the
decision had been made, he apparently acquiesced, as is the custom.
Some have suggested that the overthrow of the Diem government
furnished an opportunity to withdraw the Americans. Mr. Kennedy
was horror stricken at the excesses of the Viet Cong in their cam­
paign of terrorism and is said to have uttered some such statement
as. “we will never desert you ”
__
Diem had held sway inSouthVietnam for 8 years. He must have
been a resourceful and ruthless ruler.

Everybody cauld tell they were
enjoying themselves from their
laughter, singing and the trail of
hay left behind. When they
arrived at their destination, Mr.
Bump had a fire started for a

hike through the woods, play
games, gather wood and roasting
sticks and etc. It was a very

time
for
the

The Brownie Scouts loaded into
cars and headed for the Bill
Estep farm in Sunfield. There
they loaded into their wagon for a
hay ride around the area. They
also enjoyed a weiner roast from

many events these girls will be
enjoying during their Scouting
years.

Ambulance Services: How They Operate
By Patricia O’Brien
Banner Staff Writer

(This is the second of three ar­
ticles covering the problems of
ambulance service in Barry
County.)
.
Barbara Ellen Greenwood of
Delton was a champion roller
skater 17 months ago. In late
May, 1970, she placed among the
top three skaters in Michigan at
the United States Amateur Roller
Skating Olympic Association
competition in Detroit. She was
mentally and physically ready
for the national competition in
July, hoping that at the age of 13
she could win a spot on the
Olympic team.
.
One week later tragedy struck.
Barbara’s brothers, Paul and
Vern and a neighbor, Steve Ruth­
ford were driving her to a
training session with her coach in

Richland when a tie rod on the
car broke, sending them crashing
into a tree.
Although police and insurance
reports later showed that the car
was traveling only 35 to 40 miles
per hour, all the children were
hospitalized. Barbara remained
in the hospital for nine weeks
with face, leg and ankle injuries.
Today,
after
extensive
operations throughout the year,
Barbara, a freshman at Delton
Kellogg High School, knows she
can never again skate com­
petitively. She now teaches
children’s skating classes at the
Richland Falcons Roller Skating
Club and also referees skating
meets.
Barbara’s mother, Mrs. Jim
Rhoades, is grateful that Bar­
bara can do as much as she does
and feels she owes an unpayable
debt to William’s Funeral Home,

whose ambulance rushed to the
accident.
‘‘Who knows what could have
happened if that ambulance
hadn’t been as fast as it was,”
Mrs. Rhoades said. “My kids
didn’t get secondary service
because I wasn't there. They got
the best, fast, and they got. it
because of Mr. Williams.”
'Mrs. Rhoades said the am­
bulance called ahead to Borgess
Hospital in Kalamazoo, one and
one-naif miles from where she
was working, and by the time she
got there a heart specialist,
neurosurgeon, internist and an
orthopedic surgeon were already
with the children.
“No amount of money could
pay Williams for what he did for
my family,” she said. “I feel the
ambulance is a necessary ser­
vice, and if people want it, they’ll
have to pay for it”
The cost of the ambulance

service is the most frequent
complaint heard by ambulance
operators. As required by the
contract with the county, both
Williams in Delton and Central
Ambulance Company in Hastings
charge $30.00 per run plus one
dollar per loaded mile.
Owners of both companies
agree that this is the minimum
they can afford to charge, con­
sidering payments to attendants,
insurance costs, depreciation of
ambulances and baa collections.
“Two attendants are on im­
mediate call and must go out with
the ambulance,” Jack Osgood,
co-owner of Central Ambulance
said. “One-third of the total bill of
each call goes to each attendant,
which doesn’t leave much for
operating expenses.”
Volunteer firemen are used by
Williams as attendants. All meet
the state requirement of ad­
vanced first aid training and are

qualified ambulance personnel.
They are also paid per run.
Insurance is another big ex­
pense for ambulance companies.
Because they must comply with
state laws, the insurance for the
two vehicles at Central is $1,000
annually. This does not include
insurance to cover the possibility
an ambulance could be in an
accident after it has picked up
the injured person.
“We have no multiple injury
coverage for this,” Dave Wren,
co-owner of Central said. "We
can’t buy medical liability for the
patient, since it would be very
hard to determine where injuries
originated.”
The operations statement of
Central Ambulance during its
first year of operation, March 1,
1969 to March 1, 1970, is printed

Wren says the primary reason
the company didn’t break even
last year was because people
often Just won't pay their bills.
He said that it is especially dif­
ficult to collect from Medicare
and Medicaid. They don’t par­
ticipate directly with Medicare,
although they will send in the
forms for the patient.
Medicare will ppy 80 per cent of
the prevailing rate in the area for
ambulance service, bdl there are
■ two problems. A $50 deductible
clause for one year under Part B
of Medicare means that if it is the
first time in a year the person has
used the ambulance, he must pay
the entire bill himself. The
patient usually cannot afford
this.
The second problem arises
because of the definition of the
prevailing rate. Michigan
Hospital Services (Blue Cross
Blue Shield) set the prevailing
rate about six years ago when
they sent out a questionairre to
ambulance services in Michigan
asking for rates. They combined
counties in Michigan according
to population, and took percentile
figures for the rates.
The prevailing rate in Hastings
is higher than the percentile
figure, which means that patients
must pay the difference them­
selves.
“You pay us, we’ll help you
collect the reimbursement from
Medicare,” Wren says he tells

people. “You never know what
Medicare is going to do."
“It's a bad situation for the
patient,” Osgood said. “But it’s
like most government services-it
ain’t cracked up to what it should
be."
Blue Cross Blue Shield has a
policy which provides com­
plementary coverage for. people
65 and over, which pays the
difference of the bill Medicare
doesn’t cover.
Medicaid is a federally funded
program administrated by
Michigan ^Hospital Services,
w|iich also has a set rate they will
pay for ambulance service. The
problem ambulance companies
encounter with Medicaid is that if
the company accepts Medicaid
payment for a patient, it cannot
collect from anyone else. Often
Medicaid doesn’t pay the full bill,.
so ambulance companies must
absorb the loss.
Because they must comply
with State laws regulating am­
bulance operations, because they
must meet the requirements of
the county subsidy and because
of the problems with Medicare
and Medicaid, the owners of
Central Ambulance feel their
hands are pretty much tied.
“These are only minimum
requirements.” Wren said. “New
laws will be passed soon,
requiring monitoring services,
ambulance technicans who will
be trained as hospital technicans
in minor surgery, administration
of drugs and other areas which
will require more time and
training.”
Why does Wren involve himself
in in ambulance business if it
involves so much work?
“Because I feel it’s necessary
and I care about people, ” he said.
“People are determined to have
police and fire protection, but
what about ambulance service?
What if your father is dying in the
backyard, wouldn't you want, to
be sure a qualified ambulance
service will soon be there?”

alternatives to a county subsidy
for ambulance service.)

City Election
Three hew aidermen were
elected to the City Council in
Hastings’ first Fall municipal
election held on Nov. 2. The new
terms begin on Jan. 1.
Named from the Fourth Ward
in the only contest on the ballot
was William R. Cook, of The
Banner, who polled 207 votes to
defeat Atty. William Battiste Jr.,
who received 42 votes. He will
lake the seat being .vacated by
George Hamaty.
Elected to the council from the
First Ward was Gordon Fuhr, an
employee of the Hastings Mfg.
Company, who received 83 write­
in votes m a last minute drive to
win the seat being vacated by
Edwin Wietnik. An unusual
situation existed. Frank Ritchie,
retired Consumers Power
manager here, had filed for the
post, expecting an April ejection.
Since that time, Mr. and Mrs.
Ritchie decided to move to
Clearwater, Fla., and left for
their new home before the
November balloting. He had
written the Council, explaining
his position. However, his was
the only name on the ballot, and
he received 31 votes.
If he had received the most
votes, he would have been
declared elected, but would not
have been qualified to sit. Fuhr’s
last minute write-in campaign
provided the electorate with an
opportunity to select their
representative on the Council,
rather than have one appointed
by that body.
Lynn R. Btown of the City
Bank was elected from the
Second Ward to succeed the
veteran Dale Bassett. He polled
46 votes.

Two first downs moved the ball to
the Hastings 15 from where Rick
Munn, a sophomore, attempted a
21 yard field goal. It was long
enough but was wide.

Lansing Waverly had little
trouble romping over wisiting
Charlotte, scoring three times in
the first canto. John King blocked
an Oriole punt and Joe Lapka fell
on the bail on the Charlotte end
zone for Waverly’s first six
pointer.
Bill Taft Jr., the son of the
Waverly head coach, slanted 37
yards off tackle for the second
touchdown, and Steve Hewes
capped a 50 yard drive plunging
over from about the five for the
third TD.
The fourth Warrior score came
on the legendary Statue of
Liberty play with Bob Scandary
scampering 35 yards to make the
score 24-0 by intermission.
Steve Hewes completed the
scoring in the third period,
rambling 20 yards up the middle.

The 1971 firearm deer hunting season will get underway on
Monday. Nov. 15, Statewide, and the vanguard of the hundreds of
Barry County hunters are already moving into the northland, with the
big onslaught slated for next weekend. But unless many more people
purchase licenses, the pressure in the deer areas will be down, based
on the number of tags sold here up to last weekend.
John Leary, who has been selling hunting and fishing licences for
many years as a convenience for his State Street Sports Center
consumers, reported that the sale was some 500 or more below that
normally sold by early November.

While the sale of licenses has

An effort should be made,
Statewide, to ask sportsmen to
obtain their licenses ahead of
time. John said that the
procrastination this year could
result in men and women lining
up for permits al the last minute.
Then too, the Department of
Natural Resources should make
it financially worth while for
dealers to handle the licenses.
The new system involves more
work and bookkeeping, and

Barry County will operate on
an austerity budget during 1972,
county, commissioners ‘decided
Nov. 2 as they adopted a per­
manent budget of $1,116,939.
The board elimiriated the
abstract office’s expense-and
receipts-from the budget.
With limited funds and
demands for services increasing,
the commissioners indicated
they hoped to fall back on
townships to assuree-or resume­
responsibility for some services
sucn as building and zoning
permits, the cost of land use
planning and possibly other
functions.
Finance Chairman Monte (Joe)
Bennett pointed out that having
the townships assume some of
the Planning Commission’s cost
would get the responsibility back
to the “grass roots.” He added
that consolidation of county
departments and elimination of
duplicate services should be
studied to effect greater savings.
M.R.Dangremond, chairman
of the county’s Planning Com­
mission, was at the Nov. 2 session
and asked to board to ap­
propriate $15,000 a year for two
years as a contingency fund as
the commission hoped to com­
plete a “sorely needed" Land
Use Plan.
Dangremond said the money
would be used only as last resort
and that other sources-such as
foundations-were being asked to
finance the plan.
Bennett said that setting aside
such a contingency would “open
a huge can of worms.” He said it
wouldn’t be fair to set aside
$15,000, for possible use, when
other departments could use that
money in their regular
operations.
Although strapped for funds,
Bennett pointed out that the
commissioners’ action in the past
several years had provided the
county with many improvements
without raising taxes.
Purchase of the Center Street
office complex at $169,000,
construction of a $100,000 lagoon
system at the Medical Facility
and the new $360,000 mini-iail
were cited. Bennett added that
the new District Court system is
costing the county an additional
$40,000, the second Circuit Court
judge hike the budget and the
adult
probation
officer
represents additional operational
costs.
Bennett added that should the
county go to binding arbitration
for salaries, and salaries are
increased, the number of em­
ployees would have to drop.
Bennett said an extra $10,000
was put in the contingency fund,
but with postage costs going up,
along with other things, it
probably will not be enough.
Commissioners should start
now to figure out a way to provide
ambulance service during the
second half of 1972. The current
ambulance contracts end in July.
Dangremond declared that the
Land Use Plan should have been
developed long ago. Through a
Farmers Home Administration
grant, the final stages of a water­
sewer study are being completed.
When finished public hearings
will probably be held in each
section of the county. Several
lake areas are already critical,
Dangremond indicated.
,
During the afternoon session,
the comissioners heard a plea for
salary increases, then voted to
continue the 1971 salary schedule
into 1972.
Barry County’s tax allocation
for 1972 funds was cut to 5.87 from
6.14 mills. The schools receive
eight mills; the townships one •
and the Intermediate School
District .13 mills.

Study Need For

Members of the Barry Board of
Commissioners have been in­

Delton School Board Studies
Recommendations For School

By Bob Brewer
The Delton Kellogg Board of
Education has discussed plans
for the construction of a new high
school during the past two Board
meetings.
There,aje many factors which
must be considered while
planning a new schtol. The
present situation of the school is
very crowded. The Board must
look ahead to the future at least
10 years from now. A realistic
figure for occupancy of a new
building would be two and one
half years from now.
?
Committees of faculty,
students, members of the
community and legal advisors
must be formed by the Board to
have a cross section of ideas to
plan the building correctly.
The Board has formed a
steering committee which will
present a growth repopt-to the
Board by Feburary 1/The need
for new facilities for community

use, such as the Lions Club, for
vocational training and physical
education has been discussed.
The board feels there is a need
for a vocational training
program.
A new school could fill gaps in
several areas. There is a growing
need for a bus storage area, more
office space, and a new band
room for the growing and
progressing band. »A reference
center could be used by both the
community and the school, the
counseling department will need
larger rooms and the home
economics department could use
more modern facilities for the
modern times.
A student lounge would be a
welcome addition, providing
students a room to use for a
variety of activities. An in­
dustrial arts classroom could be
used both for intermediate and
high school education and an

athletic recreation area could
fulfil) both community and school
needs.
Committees will be formed to
study the need of these facilities
and to discuss architectural
concepts. Some may be found
more necessary than others.
A new school would allow for
the initiation of new teaching
concepts and curriculum for
better education. Such ideas as
group instructors, which the
present facilities won’t allow,
could be adopted.
The Board has also'discussed
remodeling as a more economic
reality. The present high school
would be structurally hard to
remodel because of the way it is
built.
The Board is asking for
community help in planning for
the building, since tne school is
vital functioning part of our
community.

J would like to relate a typical
situation in both the adult and
student world which was
published in the “Valley
visions”, Maple Valley’s student
newspaper, as an editorial.
“There once was a school in
which the students were so
concerned with their student
government that those they had
elected were constantly told how
By Mark Andrews
Maple Valley High School
Mankind has one basic enemy,
that enemy being himself. All of
man’s fears have been brought,
about by his own recklessness.
His careless use of nature has
resulted in tnass pollution of the
air, water and land. His reckless
expansion of military power has
struck fear into the hearts of
people' of all nations. His in­
creasing birth rate is causing
concern as to how the earth can
survive, and to be sure he should
be concerned for by the year 2000
the total human population on
earth will have douoled,.to nearly
7 billion.
Today the young generation is
trying to escape the problems left
them by society, through the use
of drugs. Thus suicide is
becoming a popular pastime.
Murder and cnme rates are
rising at an alarming rate.

the students wanted their
government run. Well, this was
great! The officers thought that
students finally had overcome
their apathy toward government,
which delighted the officers, and
all thought they would live
happily ever after.
But tragedy struck. One of the
officers had to resign and there
was a gap in the system. A
meeting was called and the
president asked for volunteers to
fill the office. To his dismay, no
hands were raised..
The moral is: Everyone is
willing to open his mouth but no
one likes to work.”
Nuclear bombs are being tested
all over the earth as if a
showdown between nations was
coming in the near future. One
small switch of a lever can spell
doom to mankind. More and
more legally fatherless children
are being born, helping man’s
population along, ano very often
being brought up without the
family and the love that is needed
so they may grow to be wor­
thwhile citizens of earth.
Now my question to you is: Is
man’s world doomed? Perhaps it
is, but as long as there are con­
cerned people who care about
what happens, there is a small
spark of hope left. But if man
does not kindle that spark it will
die. The choice is up to you, the
People of the United Slates, along
with people of all nations, to see
that that spark does not die, but
bursts into flames and mankind
is reborn.___________________

New Play Director
At Lakewood High
By Robert Bennett

The all-school play, “The Egg
and I", at Lakewood is headed by
a new director Mr. Robert Huyck
of Lake Odessa, who likes his new
job.
“I took the part because your
principal called me," Mr. Huyck
said. “It is1 a real pleasure to
work with the cast.”
Drama is not new to Mr.
Huyck. In his college days he was
active in several campus
productions. In more recent
years he has worked with the
Carson City Civic Players, acting
and directing. The most
rewarding part of acting, Huyck
said, was “getting applause.”

This is Mr. Huyck’s first ex­
perience working with teen­
agers. He said that he felt he
could handle the job because he
felt “young at heart.” The only
drawback is the time spent in
practices. The cast practices for
three hours a night, four nights a
week.
Working with school-aged
children is not new for him,
however. For the past 17 years he
has* served as principal of the
Ionia County Rural Schools, part
of the Ionia County Intermemqte
School District.
“My hopes are that it will be a
learning experience,” Mr. Huyck
said. “The Egg and I”, a comedy
based on life on a chicken farm,
is slated for Nov. 19 and 20.

The first group to use the new

must have the life-saving course

Are Jews a race or religion?
W^at are the three classes of
Jews? Why do men wear
skullcaps during a Jewish ser­

Questions such as these along

conducted with some sections in
Hebrew and the sermon in
English.
An interesting fact learned was
that Jews are a religion and not a
race. So, maybe the next time we
catch ourselves saying, “That

we’ll remember that the blond­

First Presbyterian Church
The First Presbyterian Church of Hastings was organized in 1849
whirls members. Prior to that date the Presbyterian community had
worshiped jointly with the First Congregational Society organized in
1842 by Rev. Sylvester Cochran, of Vermontville, under tire Plan of
Union adopted by the General Assembly in 1801. Under this Plan it
was possible for the two denominations to work together, be served
by the pastors of either, while retaining their denominational
preference.
This arrangementcontinued until Jan. 7,1849 when the Plan was
dissolved and the First Presbyterian Society organized. Services
were held in private homes, in the school and in the Court House.
By the end of 1852 a church building had become a necessity, and
plans were made to build a one-room structure on two lots purchased
the year before from the Hastings Village Company which had
acquired a tract of land from Euratos P. Hastings, of Detroit, which
was being platted into lotsxrtrwhich the Village of Hastings was to be
built. This building was cdmpleted and dedicated on Dec. 13,1854.
In the Civil War year 1863, according to the Session minutes of
that year, a number of members "mainly for political reasons” with­
drew from the church and organized the Emmanuel Episcopal
Church, still our good friend and neighbor.
In 1898 an additional room was built for Sunday School classes,
committee meetings, the Ladies Aid and -the like. This room was
called "The Chapel” and was the only major structural change until
1920, when an extensive program of alteration and expansion was
carried out. A large part of the present edifice is the result of that
program. The chancel is a part of the old Chapel, while the sanctuary
remains virtually unchanged from the original "one-room” built in
1854. These two rooms plus some basement space, served all the
church activities until 1948 when the Kirk House was added to the
main structure, providing Sunday School rooms, kitchen and dining
areas, pastor's study, sacristy, secretarial office and lounge. An
electronic organ also was installed.
Another addition to the.church property is the Leason Sharpe
Memorial Hall, erected in 1954 on the lot that had held the "par­
sonage” as it was called when built in 1898. This building houses a
large auditorium, class rooms, nursery and an up-to-date kitchen
with all modem conveniences. Two pieces of property directly east of
Memorial Hall have recently been purchased and turned into parking
lots for the convenience of church attendants.
From 1849 to the present, 22 pastors have served the church. The
present pastor, Willard H. Curtis came here in June, 1960. In August,
1970 Rev. Harvey G. Beach was called as an assistant pastor. He has
special responsibilities for Christian Education and Youth Work.
The doors of the church and the programs offered are open to all,
and all are invited.

Guest Editorial
FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
by Willard H. Curtis, Pastor
A verse of Scripture that many of us learned as a child and for
many will never grow old is John 3:16, "God so loved the world that
he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish
but have eternal life.” Some call this verse "the gospel in a nutshell.”
Certainly, it is a brief, clear statement of god’s love and purpose
expressed in Jesus Christ. It points to faith in Christ as the way of
personal salvation. For all of this John 3:16 is a favorite of many
Christians.
This verse, however, does more than turn in upon the individual
and offer a personal salvation-important as that is. It also provides
the theological basis for constructive interpersonal relations,
relations based on love. How is this? God's© loved the world that he
gave Jesus. He loves the world, the world that is, all people just as
they are-people of every race, color, political persuasion, religion.
Our problem is that we too often restrict the "world” to include
only people like ourselves. We shove those people not like ourselves
into compartments and placTtabete-^n them: blacks, orientals,
communists; welfare cases, liberals, conservatives, enemies,
junkies, hawks, doves...And have done that, we shut them out of our
hearts and minds and prayers.
But if God loves the world so much that he gave Jesus and I find
my salvation and comfort in this, it also follows that he loves all these
other people just as much, these people that are different. Christ died
for them too.
.
Coming right down to personal terms, I must look upon even my
enemy as one for whom Christ died and out of love for Christ must be
well-disposed toward him. After all, that is one of Jesus’ teachings
and examples, "Love your enemies.”
Yes, the "gospel in a nutshell” does focus on one person at a time,
but also upon the whole world and all the people of the world.

In 1961, President John F. Kennedy went to Europe. Among the
chiefs of State he conferred with, was General Charles de .Gaulle,
president of France. De Gaulle tells in his Memoirs of the advice he
gave Kennedy on Vietnam. As reported in the New York Times, it
was as follows:
“For you, intervention in this region will be an entanglement
without end. From the moment that nations have awakened, no
ftreign authority, whatever its means, has any chance of imposing
itself on them. You are going to see this. For, although you find of­
ficials who, by interest, agree to obey you, the people will not consent
and moreover are not calling for you.
“The ideology that you invoke will not change anything. Even
more, the masses will confuse it with your will to exert power. This is
twhy the more you comit yourself there against Communism, the
more the Communists will appear to be champions of national in­
dependence, the more they will receive help and, first of all, that
which comes from desperation.
‘
“We French have experienced this. You Americans wanted,
yesterday, to take our place in Indochina. You now want to assume
our succession to rekindle a war that we ended. I predict to you that
you will, step by step, become sucked into a bottomless military and
political quagmire despite the losses and expenditure that you may
squander.
~
t '
“What yout we and others shflulcFdo in unfortunate Asia is not to
substitute^ourselves for states on their own soil but to give them what
they need to get out of poverty and humiliation, which aret there as
elsewhere, the causes of totalitarian regimes. I say this to you in the
name of our West.”
The next year in 1962, Charles de Gaulle followed his own advice.
The French came to Algeria in 1830.
Agitation for independence began soon after the second World
War. By 1958, when de Gaulle came to power, it had reached an acute
stage. After four years of turmoil, de Gaulle determined to separate
Algeria from France, against tremendous opposition both in Algeria
and France. There were a million Frenchmen living in Algeria and
French property in the billions of dollars.
An election was held in Algeria. The vote for independence was
overwhelming.
Algeria has a leftist government and is on friendly terms with
France with whom it has the bulk of its foreign trade. It has
recognized Communist China. There was an American ambassador
at Algiers. It does not have diplomatic relations with the U.S. at the
present time.
.
Charles de Gaulle granted independence to Algeria so that there
“■could be peace in Algeria and friendship between France and

�OpenlO Mile
M-66 Stretch
A 10-mile section of M-66
between M-78 in Calhoun County
and Cloverdale Road in Barry
County was opened Monday,
Nov. 8, the Department of State
Highways said today.
The opening eliminated a 12­
mile detour for M-66 through
traffic, in effect since last March.
Contractor on the $2.2 million
widening and paving project was
Kamminga &amp; Roodvoets Inc. of
Grand Rapids. Bids were taken
in February and work began in
March.
The project, financed equally
with State and Federal funds,
included the widening of a bridge
carrying M-66 over Wonadoga
Creek in Barry County.
Some work remains to be done,
with final completion set for next
summer.

Ron Courtnay Sails
■The Mediterranean

Many Hastings High School
students were very disappointed
in the action taken by the ad­
ministration and literary board
in qancelling the play “Dark of
the Moon”. It is too bad that Mr.
Freridge and the cast had put as
much time and effort into the
play before it was cancelled. It
was not suitable for presentation
in Hastings, it should have been
thoroughly reviewed by the
administration before anyone
had begun to work on it.
I attended a production of this
play in another town where it was
very well received. Although the
play was not intended for
elementary production, Thost

high school students are mature
enough to appreciate its content.
It would be very difficult to find a
play that does not offend anyone
and still have literary merit.
Unfortunately it may not be
impossible to put on a junior­

No Solution Found To Ambulance Subsidy Cut

By Patricia O’Brien
. Banner Staff Writer
“An ambulance service is an
absolute necessity. We can’t be
without one."
“There is a moral and a legal
obligation to provide an am­
bulance service."
“Why should lhe government
subsidize a private enterprise?
No one hands me any money to
run my business."
Many concerned citizens are
expressing their opinions and'
raising questions about the
ambulance problem in Barry
County, but so far no one has

outlined a workable solution. The
situation remains that many
Barry County residents will be
without ambulance service after
June 30, when the current county
subsidy to two ambulance ser­
vices expires.
Two weeks ago the Board of
Commissioners adopted the 1972
operational budget, which
contains only enough funds to
continue payment to the am­
bulance services for the Final six
months of the contract.
The owners of William’s
Funeral Home in Delton and
Central Ambulance Service in

Hastings contend they cannot
afford to run ambulance services
without the subsidy.
The county had to/drop the
subsidy because of financial
difficulties. In 1968 it paid $62,000
to five ambulance companies to
provide service in the county. In
1969 the commissioners decided
the county could not afford such a
large subsidy, consolidated the
areas served and gave 39 month
subsidies to the two lowest bid­
ders.
The opinion of some com-,
missioners now is that the
responsibility for providing

ambulance service should belong
to the townships.
“If we’re going to pay for
services such as ambulances,
we!re going to have to go to the
people of the townships,” Monty
Bennett, commissioner from the
1st and 2nd wards of the city of
Hastings said. “It will give some
of the responsibility for county
projects back to the townships by
asking them to share in the
costs."

Financial burden.
financial
“We’re not in any financial
situation to operate an am­
bulance service without a voted
millage, and I don't believe the
people are in the mood to vote
any more millage," Jack
O'Connor, Hastings township
supervisor said. “It seems to me
that it would be difficult to man
the ambulance and if the county
can't handle it, I don't see how

They say the townships are

No Solution Found To Ambulance Subsidy Cut

By Patricia O’Brien
. Banner Staff Writer
“An ambulance service is an
absolute necessity. We can’t be
without one."
“There is a moral and a legal
obligation to provide an am­
bulance service."
“Why should the government
subsidize a private enterprise?
No one hands me any money to
run my business."
Many concerned citizens are
expressing their opinions and'
raising questions about the
ambulance problem in Barry
County, but so far no one has

outlined a workable solution. The
situation remains that many
Barry County residents will be
without ambulance service after
June 30, when the current county
subsidy to two ambulance ser­
vices expires.
Two weeks ago the Board of
Commissioners adopted the 1972
operational budget, which
contains only enough funds to
continue payment to the am­
bulance services for the Final six
months of the contract.
The owners of William’s
Funeral Home in Delton and
Central Ambulance Service in

Hastings contend they cannot
afford to run ambulance services
without the subsidy.
The county had to/drop the
subsidy because of financial
difficulties. In 1968 it paid $62,000
to five ambulance companies to
provide service in the county. In
1969 the commissioners decided
the county could not afford such a
large subsidy, consolidated the
areas served and gave 39 month
subsidies to the two lowest bid­
ders.
The opinion of some com-,
missioners now is that the
responsibility for providing

ambulance service should belong
to the townships.
“If we’re going to pay for
services such as ambulances,
we!re going to have to go to the
people of the townships,” Monty
Bennett, commissioner from the
1st and 2nd wards of the city of
Hastings said. “It will give some
of the responsibility for county
projects back to the townships by
asking them to share in the
costs."

Financial burden.
financial
“We’re not in any financial
situation to operate an am­
bulance service without a voted
millage, and I don't believe the
people are in the mood to vote
any more millage," Jack
O'Connor, Hastings township
supervisor said. “It seems to me
that it would be difficult to man
the ambulance and if the county
can't handle it, I don't see how

�Ambulance Solution
Eludes Officials
Richard Yarger, Carlton
township supervisor, agrees that
the millage would be difficult to
raise and he doubts that an
ambulance could operate out of
the fire department because of
the expense.
“They’re throwing so many
things back to the townships,” he
said, “and in a rural area like
this we don’t get much money.
It's hard to pave the roads, much
less run a business like an am­
bulance.”
Supervisor of Prairieville, Karl
Palmatier, said the township
officials haven't discussed the
ambulance problem, adding that
it is not yet an emergency and the
township has plenty of time to
work out a solution.
Hope Township Supervisor,
Kenneth Church, plans a meeting
with Barry, Prairieville and
possibly Orangeville townships to
discuss the ambulance problem.
He suggests a cooperative effort

between these townships, such as
the police and fire protection now
in operation*
Loss of the county subsidy will
have no effect on somf town­
ships, according to officials* y
“ Jack Love, Assyria township
supervisor and president of the
Barry
County
Township
Supervisors Association, said the
Bellevue Rescue Squad, located
within three miles of the town­
ship, provides complete am­
bulance service to Assyria
township. •
“This subsidy was a dream by
the city boys in 1969,” he said.
“They have had about three
years to get off their thumbs and
do something about the am­
bulance service."
The Bedford Rescue Squad
services Johnstown township and
Supervisor Norman Crase said
the township will continue to
donate approximately $400 an­
nually to the Squad.__________

townships are also serviced by a
volunteer ambulance service,
based in Nashville. Cecil Barrett,
member of the ambulance board
and township clerk of Castletown
township, said residents are
satisfied with the - service,
operated in conjunction with the
fire department.
Bob Booth, township clerk of
Thomapple, said he is glad to see
the county subsidy end. The
township, although covered by
Central Ambulance under the
subsidy, gives Beeler Funeral
Home in Middleville an annual
$3,200 subsidy.
"An ambulance based in
Hastings does us no good," he
said. “As far as we’re concerned,
Central has gotten our share of
the subsidy and has provided no
service for us.”
Although county officials have
eliminated the subsidy after June
30, they recognize that the county
is required under state law to pay
ambulance costs for people in­
jured on public roads who are
unable to pay for such tran­
sportation.
“We have paid Beeler Funeral
Home for ambulance service
under this law,” Ken Radant,
commissioner from the 3rd and
4th wards of the city of Hastings
said. “He isn't subsidized, but it
is our responsibility.”
The county may act to gain
reimbursement for sums paid for
the ambulance transportation of
any person, but Radant said the
prosecuting attorney Has been
authorized to take this action
only against such people who will
not pay their bills, although they
are financially able to do so.
The county commissioners
devoted the majority of their
meeting last Tuesday to con­

�EDITORIAL
------------------------ by R.

M.

C.--------------------------- :------------------------

**I have yet to meet a single black parent who is anxious to have
his or her child.bused to a school outside the neighborhood—just to
mingle with white children.” That statement bv Frank Angelo,
associate executive editor of the Detroit Free Press, comes from one
who has access to first-hand information. He is neither a theorist jjor
a sociological “do-gooder.”
The point Mr. Angelo makes is that, black parents seem to be
primarily concerned with quality education for their children. They
are convinced that they have been bypassed by the educational
establishment in their own neighborhood schools and feel that the
only answer under present conditions is to submit to a busing
program to get their children into superior (white) schools where
they will have the advantage of better faculties, libraries and
equipment and thus a better chance to receive.a first rate education.
If the above does represent the attitude' of the majority of the
blacks, then forced integration would appear to solve few, if any,
problems. From what we have read in press reports to date, forced
integration by busing appears to create more problems than it solves.
In fact, Mr. Angelo, speaking of conditions in Detroit, states that:
“And while, admittedly, the voluntary (Magnet) integration plan
hasn't worked one must point out that the affirmative steps taken by
previous school boards to force integration (and there were many)
were much more spectacular failures in achieving the desired
results.”
All this- would seem to support the view that, the considerable
extra cost involved in massive busing programs might better be
spent in upgrading the quality of education in the districts where such
quality is admittedly below par.
That is why we think that Gov. Milliken was eminently right in
challenging the opinion handed down by Judge Roth. In addition to
being theoretical and unrealistic, the Judge, in our opinion, was
stepping into an area that rightfully belongs to the executive and
legislative branches of government.

The Hastings Chamber of Commerce has come up with a novel
membership drive that officially gets underway on Dec. 7, although
organizational work is even now in process of completion. Bob
Johnson, the new Chamber Manager, states that co-operation has
been excellent—not one refusal from members asked to take part in
the campaign.
All of us have an interest jnThe success of this drive. A Chamber
needs adequate financing ami active membership support if it is to
fulfill a useful and valuable rolXin the community.
A Chamber of Commerce membership is really an investment in
Hastings. We need a Chamber with active and creative leadership
exactly as much as the Chamber needs us. A community of our size
must work in unison to achieve the degree of progress we should
make. There would be plenty of areas for agreement in support of
Chamber programs. The organization is a democratic one and Bob
Johnson assures us that individual views and opinions are always
welcome—and he means it.
A leader needs support in order to perform effectively and Bob is
rightly concerned with the important problem of selecting projects
for action that reflect local opinion.
We have the makings of a really useful Chamber and so we hope
the membership drive gets str6ng local support.

Until such time as Hastings gets a State Street Shopping Mall—if,
indeed, that is to be the final answer—we still are convinced that well-,
marked pedestrian walkways at the main intersections in this area,'
would be a convenience that shoppers have the right to expect and
would certainly improve, immediatly, the convenience of Main Street
as a place to trade. We have here now two retail areas separated by
wide and attractive (for motorists)speedway. Why not join them
together by well marked walkways? The idea is not new nor untried
and is even now being used to good effect in many Michigan com­
munities.

Many people in Barry county were saddened at the news of the
death of Dr. Harold B. Tukey in Boca Raton, Fla. Dr. Tukey was in
the true sense of the term, a gentleman and a scholar, caste in much
the same mold as his father-in-law, Dean Eugene Davenport in­
ternationally-known for pioneering work in the field of agricultural
education. Dr. Tukey spent much of his time at Michigan State
University, where he headed the horticulture department until his
retirement several years ago. Nevertheless he considered the lovely
Maples estate (developed originally by Dean Davenport) near
Woodland as “home base” and he always had a warm spot in his
heart for Barry county and its people. Dr. Tukey was such a friendly
and unassuming person to meet, that few herexealized the degree of
eminence he attained in the field of agricultural science. He was an
authority on plant-growth regulators, dwarf fruit trees and the use of
radio isotopes in plant research and was one of the first to use plants
in cancer research. Our sincere sympathy to Mrs. Tukey and
members of the family.

New Children's Clothing Store To Open
“It’s just a shot in the dark
when you send out an interest
survey like this one,” noted Bob
Johnson, Chamber of Commerce
manager. “But when it works,
than you have a real success
story to tell.”
The success story is several
months work in trying to locate a
suitable children's clothing store
to operate in Hastings.
Last week, a final contract was
signed between Mrs. Irene Nye of
Plainwell and Dennis Cleveland,
owner of Cleveland’s Men and
Boys Wear, that will provide a
complete children’s apparel
outlet from infant to teenage
sizes.
Cleveland is enthusiastic about
the arrangement that will turn
his basement, now used for
storage, into a well stocked and
easily accessible children’s
department. Cleveland has
already begun the remodeling
job which will make the 2,200
square foot basement an at­
tractive, brightly illuminated
selling floor.
His remodeling plans are
elaborate. A new stairwell will be
placed near the fron entrance to
accomodate shoppers wanting to
visit the lower level. Two en­
trances will be built at the back of
the store for easy access from the
Court St. Parking lot. One en­
trance will be to Cleveland’s
existing store and the other to the

new children's outlet. The
children's store will be about 1400
square feet. Cleveland will ex­
pand his present boys wear
department by 800 square feet in
the basement.
The lower level store will be
tastefully decorated with cot­
tonwood paneling and black
fixtures following a semi-coionial
motif. The entire area will be
shag carpeted.
Mrs. Nye, who presently
operates the Lulla By Lee
Clothing Store in Plainwell, has
been in the apparel business for
weveral years. Her ability to buy
wisely and keep a well stocked
inventory combined with per­
sonalized service has been the
key to hoc success. She keeps an
inventory of brand names such as
Healthtex, Buster Bfbwn,
Weather Tamer, Dream Girl and
others. She has a complete line of"infant wear in both boys and girls
and stocks boys sizes up to 6x.
Her girls line runs through size
14. Cleveland will continue to
handle boys clothing from size 6x
through adult apparel.
Mrs. Nye will operate her
outlet under the present name
separate from Cleveland's
although patrons will be allowed
to purchase merchandise from
the lower level store in con­
junction with purchases from
Cleveland’s present store.

made.
The Chamber will continue to

To the Editor:
We, as parents of four children
who have and are attending the
Hastings Public Schools, would
like to say a big THANK-YOU to
the officials who had the “in­
testinal fortitude” to cancel the
Jr., Sr., play “Dark of the
Moon”. It is a shame that we
have teachers with such poor
judgement that they have to be
censored causing inconvenience
and embarrassrfient to all.
Parents, who would like to see
our schools kept as an institution
teaching a sense of morality,
respect for others and above all
respect for ones self, let our
school officials know’it by saying
thank-you also.
In many cases, we are told to
■be broadminded about these
things fpr the sake of literature
and art “hogwash.” It is fherely
a license to teach and condone
immorality, which leads to loss of
respect for others and ones self.
What do young people or any
human being have left if they
cannot respect them selves in the
sight of God and man?

at the Firtst United Methodist
Church in Hastings to select two

ticipating. District 3 includes
Allegan, Barry, Eaton, Ionia,
Kent, Muskegon and Ottawa
counties.
The “Make-It-Yourself-WithWool” program.is co-sponsored
annually in Michigan by the
Woman’s Auxiliary to the
National
Wool
Growers
Association.
These girls selected the fabrics

which must be made of 100 per
cent wool loomed in American
patterns and accessories and
constructed their own garments
which they will model.
This event is open to the public,
free of charge.
-&gt;
One winner from the junior
division, ages 14-16, and one from
the senior division, 17-21, will be
selected to represent District 3 in
the state competition which will
be held Sat. Dec. 11, 1971 at the
Union Building, MSU East
I-ansing at 1:30 p.m. Winners in
the state contests will represent
their state in the national event at
Phoenix, Arizona, Jan. 20. 1972.

A no parking ban along the
Christmas parade route will be in
effect from 12 noon to the con­
clusion of the parade according
to the Hastings City Council and
the Chamber of Commerce.
The aldermdh at their last ’
council
meeting
voted
unanimously the request from
the Chamber that “cars will not
be permitted to park on State St.
from Michigan to Broadway
after 12 noon. Parking will be
permitted following the parade.”
Chamber
manager Bob
Johnson said this will enable
parade viewers to see the floats
and participants without having
to sit on cars and peer over them.
It should allow more people to see
the parade since viewers will be
allowed to move over the curb
and into the street.
To remind moming shoppers of
the no parking ban, signs will be
placed on each meter the day of
the parade. A map will be printed
in the newspaper locating ad­
ditional parking in the downtown
area.
“We urge every citizen to abide
by the ban so we can ac­
commodate more parade
viewers and make it easier for
them to see the activities,”
Johnson said.

�Hastings Drops Thriller To Marshall, 36-27
The Hastings High -Saxons,
after racing to a 21-8 halftime
advantage, watched Jim Trapp
lead the Marshall Redskins to a
28-point outburst in the last two
quarters to post a thrilling. 36-27
victory ih the season’s finale on
Johnson Field.
It was a great game to watch,
and while Coach Jerry Eckman’s
Blue &amp; Gold squad came out on
the short end of the score, their
performance was outstanding
and a fitting climax to a good grid
season.
Trapp scored three of the four
Redskin touchdowns in that last
half, highlighted by an 89 yard
scamper that put the Saxons out
of the ball game, 36-21, with 4:57
left on the clock.
Jeff Bishop capped a final 75yard Hastings drive going over
on a short burst to make the score
36-27.
.
The loss gave Hastings a 5-3-1
record and' Marshall finished
with 6-3, winning their last five
contests.

Sessions Ends
Season In 4th
Sam Sessions of Nashville
ended the 1971 U.S. Auto Club
sprint car racing season in fourth
place among drivers.
Sessions led the sprint division
standings for the first half of the
season, but saw infrequent action
later in the year and dropped
behind Gary Bettenhausen,
Larry Dickson and Rollie Beale
in the final tabulation.
It is the third time in the last
five years that Sessions finished
among the sprint division’s top
four drivers. He was second in
1967 and fourth in 1969.
Presented
to
Bernard
Museum—The Bernard Museum
near Delton was presen tea this
dugout, believed to be at least 150
years old and it could be even
1,000 years old, according to
State Police Trooper Jerry E.
Wensloff of the Benton Harbor
post. Wensloff said the estimate

of age was made by Dr. Cleland,
curator of the Michigan State
University Museum. The dugout,
believed to be an Indian relic,
was discovered by Wensloff while
he was participating in a Barry
County sheriff's department
diving training mission at Wall
Lake last Aug. 12. The dugout

was found in about 20 feet of
water while the divers were
really looking for a high speed
racing boat which sank a few
years ago. It is 10 feet long, one
foot and six inches across and one
foot and two inches across the
interior, which is nine inches
deep. Left to right are Maynard

�Delton -Kellogg Launches School Growth Study
determined that following the
same annual average gain y&amp;t
Delton that there will be a normal
growth of 1,200 students in the
next decade. However, they
recommended a constant sur­
veillance.
Some of Die eiccumsUinces
listed1 as possible were the
establishment of mobile home
parks, land subdivision, new
industry, etc. It must be noted
that buildings are being used at
100 percent capacity, and it has
been determined that we need
additional classrooms immediatdy-we can no longer add
to the present facilities-There is
the need to plan classrooms for
600 students now, and site plans
should be expandable to 1200
students by 1976 should the need
arise.
At the planning meeting of the
Study Committee held Thursday,
Nov.11, the following people were
named as chairmen:
Curriculum, Fine Arts &amp;
Academics .... Mrs. Ann Lauder­
dale;
Curriculum, Vocational &amp;
Industrial Don Hayward and E. J.
Pierson;
.
Public Information............Don
Humphreys and Mrs. Eugenia
Parker;
Building &amp; Site .... Dwight Hit­
chcock and Richard Carter, and

The Delton Board of Education
has established a citizens
committee to study building
needs and make recom­
mendations upon the basis of a
report made by the Future
Growth Committee comprised pf
E.J. Pierson as chairman, Steve
Scott, Clarence Broekerfia, Don
Hayward and Bruce Bromley.
The Growth Committee stated
that Barry County posed one of
the fastest growth ratios of any
Southwest Michigan County
during the years 1960-1970, ac­
cording to the Census.
The County as a whole was up
20.3 percent: but those townships
making up the major portion of
the Delton School System had
growths showing an increase of
31.3 percent.
The student growth at Delton
over the past decade increased
from 1,346 students in 1960-61
school year to 2,273 in the 1970-71
school year. This is an increase of
70 percent-but it should be
pointed out that three an­
nexations took place during this
period (Burroughs School,
Bristol School and the Fine Lake
Area) involving 160 school age
children. This would give an
adjusted percent of student
growth of 56 percent over the ten
year period.
The Growth Qommittee

Finance . Clarence Broekema
and Louis Maurer.
Their task will be to (1)
determine type of structure to be
built and its location (this
recommendation is to be
reported to the Board of
Education on Dec. 13); (2) to
determine what innovative ideas
they wish to incorporate in this
structure; and (3) to determine
best possible financial aid. All
committee reports are to be
given to the Board by Feb. 14,
1972.
A public forum will be held on
Nov. 22, at 7:20 p.m. in Room 62­
64 of the Intermediate School, at
which time - all citizens of the
Delton Kellogg School District
are urged to attend and express
ideas, recommendations and
opinions to the citizens planning
committee. Anyone desiring to
serve on any named committee is
urged to attend this next general
meeting of the committee as well
as join any of the committies
before then. The following
meeting times or plans have been
established.

�Maple Valley Teachers Ask Raises
The Maple Valley school board
received a request at their Nov. 8
meeting from the Teacher’s
Association that negotiated
raises of the 1971-72 school year
be paid.The district has been
given permission through the
Chicago office to pay the
negotiated salaries to .the
vocational agriculture in­
structor, teachers who taught
driver education this summer
under the new salary schedule,
and salaries for the four bus
drivers who drove this summer
earning a rate higher than that
paid per trip last school year.
The board will ask the OEP for
a ruling.
The board approved pur­
chasing a tuba and a euphonium
for the band at a cost of about
$1,200. The Band Boosters
organization of parents recently
voted to purchase a marimba,
costing about $650. The school
owns most of the big instruments
which, at depreciated prices,
would be valued at about $15,000,
The students own their own
smaller instruments. Vito
Tenerelli, band director, stated
that if the school had to furnish
all the instruments the amount
involved would be ten times the
amount presently invested.
The cheerleaders were given
permission to attend a clinic at
Hope College Saturday, *Nov. 20.
The board approved a
recommendation of the athletic
director and principal that Maple
Valley seek membership in the
Tri-Central Athletic Association.
Schools included are Central
Montcalm, Lakeview, Montabella, Portland, Carson City
and Saranac. Because of other
commitments a a full schedule
for Maple Valley would not be
possible until 1973 when a full
boys and girls basketball,
wrestling, golf, baseball and
track schedule could be worked
out. Traveling distance in the
new league would range from 30
to 70 miles.
This Fall there were 23 fresh­
men playing football and there
were 16 on the JV team. The loss
in number is due to injury,
scholastic deficiency, or loss of
interest. Thus the board decided
to drop freshman football.
The board approved a request
that the Maple Valley girls join
an athletic association basketball
league for one year. The new
league, which is now being for­
med, involves St. Johns, Ionia,
Lakewood, Hastings, Eaton
Rapids and Maple Valley.
The Michigan Association of
School Boards is anxious to get
reactions of local boards
regarding reorganization of
present intermediate school
districts into not more than 25 or
less than 15 districts. The results
of their findings will be given to
the State Senate in regard to Bill
No. 365 on Intermediate School
District Reorganization. The
Maple Valley board is agreeable
that some action should be taken,

is available on the exact plans.
There have been numerous
interruptions in electrical service
at the high school. The service is
provided by the Tri County
Electric company. A new line is
expected to correct the problem.
Administrators and members
of the vocational study com­
mittee are to attend a meeting of

..There’s a saying that says,
“Men don't know how to shop
for shoes. They’ll buy the first
pair they try on just because it
looks nice and feels good."
True, men aren’t hard to
please. A shoe is a shoe to
them. But that’s not always
good.
..Some men* are so disin­
terested that they’ll send their
wives in to buy their shoes,
thinking their site remains the
same through the years. But
did you know that shoe sizes
change at least 4 times during
adult life? Not that feet grow,
but the arch gradually
lowers, lengthening the foot.
Habit patterns are involved
also - people who work on
concrete floors, and salesmen
and policemen, for example,
will notice even more size
change than average. So you
see. men. for better shoe fit,
with more foot, leg and back
comfort, come in and let us fit

Convention Slated
To Choose Nominee
By Chris Glenn
Delton High School

One of the most exciting events
of the 1967-68 school year will be
repeated again' this year at
Delton Kellogg High School. The
DK
mock
presidential
nomination convention of fopr
years ago was “a great
cooperative effort and one of the
most educational experiences for
one days’ activities that I’ve ever
seen in Delton,”Mr, Allan Beebe,
journalism teacher, remarked.
Mr. Beebe and Mr. Gordon
Christensen, another teacher,
coordinated the program.
The convention was meant to
involve only the 20th Century
Problems classes, but as en­
thusiasm spread more classes
asked if they might be included.
Mr. W. Baker, principal, became
interested and with the help of
other teachers, decided that any
class which could benefit from
the activities should be allowed to
participate.
This lead to classes searching
for reasons to become involved
until finally every class in the
school was to participate in the
convention.
During the week preceding the
convention the entire schedule of
the school was centered around
the activities of the convention
day. The walls were filled with
posters, signs and campaign
slogans made by the art class.
The typing class typed literature
and other classes kept up on the
candidates and studied their
backgrounds.
The Republican party was
selected and students from Mr.
Beebe’s and Mr. Christensen’s
20th Century classes were
divided into campaign teams,
one for each of the five

presidential candidates. Each
group picked a campaign
manager to seek votes and
deliver speeches for the can­
didate they had selected.
On Thursday, December 14,
1967, the Delton gymnasium was
packed with 560 students from 9th
to 12th grades. •'NSe students were
seated according to state
delegations representing all 50
states. Many spectators con­
cerned with youth were present,
including Terry Roc of the State
Central Committee, who gave the
keynote speech.
Also
attending
were
newspapers and TV reporters,
representing such organizations
as the Battle Creek Enquirer and
News, The Kalamazoo Gazette,
The Hastings Banner and WOOD­
TV.
The morning was broken up
into six half hour sessions during
which speeches were given for
each candidate. The speeches
were followed by lunch, during
which half of the students polled
while the rest ate.
The balloting began at 1:00 and
after the first ballot Rockefeller
was in the lead with 156 votes,
followed by Nixon with 140 votes.
At the end of the second ballot
Rockefeller was still ahead with
169 votes and Nixon had 155. In
tiie following ballots Reagan’s
votes were given to Nixon and
Romney’s were given to
Rockefeller,
securing
Rockefeller’s lead with 221 votes
to Nixon’s 154.
Rockefeller won the school
election with 275 votes, compared
to Nixon’s 154 student votes.
Mr. Christensen summarized
the convention.
“It was a worthwhile ex­
perience,” he said.

night, Nov. 9.
Lowe said he had attended a
meeting of educators studying
the proposal and that the “ac­

. The State is getting Trito an
area where it will say school
systems “must” follow certain
curriculums and use particular
text books.
“It looks as though we will
have State control, similar to that

already being exercised in
California,’’ Lowe added.
The state may leave techniques
to the local teacher, but it will set
minimum requirements for each
classroom, and then will set up
ways to test effectiveness of the
teaching.
*
Lowe said Hastings is already
ahead of the State as far as
minimum requirements are
concerned. “I don't think we are
going to be upset by the action of
the State,” Lowe concluded.
Al Francik, president of the
Hastings Education Association,
told the board members that he
had talked with nearly all of the
19 new teachers and all were very
satisfied with their classes, the
children’s behavior and were
especially pleased with the

session at 7:30 in the HHS lecture

Robert VanderVeen,- HHS
principal, explained that the
bathrooms on the second floor of
the building have been locked
because of the difficulty of
providing supervision. He added
that, with only a few more than
1,200 students in a building
designed for 1,800, all of the
facilities were not necessary.
Principal VanderVeen said
that the rest rooms were within
“25 seconds” of all students, and .
that instructors did have keys
should the locked units be
needed. There are also teachers’
lounges on the second floor which
could be used in emergencies.
There are 14 bathrooms in the
building, seven boys and seven
girls. There are bathrooms below
each flight of stairs.

Karents of 8th graders is to be

With only six students in­

tuition rates to $129.55 for
elementary pupils and $243.51 for

had been $300 and $325, near the
maximum. Supt. of Schools,

Hastings United Holiness Church
On February 9,1966, 28 members were received into the Hastings
------ ’h, which
—
1--------- t------------------United Holiness
Oiurc
has been1-----incorporated
with IR«
the ctntA
State
of Michigan since February 11, 1966.
The first mid-week prayer meeting was held in a home located at
533 W State St., while the first Sunday service was held.in the Local
138 UAW Union Hall, which was rented temporarily for the purpose of
holding Sunday School and Sunday worship services. A residence at
429 E. Clinton St. was rented, into which the pastor and family moved.
This became the first parsonage. In the kind providence of God lhe
local congregation was able to pruchase a church building located on
East Marshall St. from the Church of the Nazarene, where the
congregation is worshipping atcne present time. In 1967 the residence
just to the east of lhe church aC315 E. Marshall was purchased. This
property adjoining the church property has become the permanent
parsonage to this date. Rev. Marvin Sickmiller and his family reside
there, he being the pastor when the church was organized and
remaining so to the present lime.
The Hastings United Holiness Church is a part of an organization
known as the United Holiness Church of North America, with other
churches in lhe Stale of Michigan and elsewhere.

Guest Editorial
GUEST EDITORIAL
By Rev. Marvin Sickmiller
Time marches on and waits for no man. It cannot be recovered
once it is lost, but while it passes by it presents mankind with great
opportunity.
_
-In speaking about time I would like to suggest in the language of the
Old Testament prophet Hosea that, ‘‘It is time to seek the Lord, till he
come and rain righteousness upon you.” Mankind is in a dilemma,
and in his most honest moments realizes that there is no way out y
except by turning to and seeking help from God, yet how few will heed
the words and accept the remedy of the prophet, and as a result he
goes on his way with little, if any, help and hope of recovery.
The Psalmist also spoke of time when he said, “It is time for theee,
Lord to work: for they have made void thy law.” After Elijah had
been taken to Heaven, Elisha, his servant, stood by the river Jordan
and with the mantle of his master he smote the waters and said,
“Where is the Lord God of Elijah?” Perhaps many today are asking
the same question in their own minds, for they see so little of his
power manifested in these days. However, let us turn Elisha’s
question around just a little and ask, "Where are the Elijah’s of
God?” Or let us put it this way, where are the individuals that will let
God work? Where are the people who will follow God as he does work
in their behalf? Where are the individuals who willingly submit to
God’s will and ways and who will let god come into their Hyes and
possess them and who will let their bodies become temples of the
Spirit as Paul teaches us in his writings. So our problem is not in
getting God to work but in getting man to let God work.
Turning now to perhaps the greatest of New Testament writers, the
apostle Paul, let us see what he says concerning time. He says, "And
that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep:
for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.” If Satan has
been successful in one area more than in any^ other, it has been in
putting the professed church to sleep spiritually. He has rocked the
church to sleep in the cradle of self-centeredness, materialism and
worldly pleasure, until men are more concerned about a few more
dollars and week-end pleasures than they are about their eternal
salvzqmn or the salvation of anyone else. Paul says it is high time to
awakebttl of sleep, and if we do not we shall find ourselves wanting
when we stand before the God of all the earth.
There is yet one more thing that Paul says about time that I would
suggest. “Bui this I say, brethren, the time is short.” We live in the
Saturday evening of this age. Iniquity abounds. The night of apostasy
deepens. The mystery of lawlessness heads toward its awful climax.
Just how short time is, no one knows but God. Jesus said, "Watch
therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of
man cometh.” It is God’s to know how short time may yet be, it is
ours to seek him and permit him to work his will and ways in our
lives, and by his help to keep ourselves wideawake spiritually in
these closing days of this age.

WOODLAI^D—If you were
coming from Hastings Nov. 6 you
might have wondered why the
group of young people were
walking. Eighteen members of
the local Luther League and their
pastor were on a Hunger Hike.
Each youth got as many sponsors
at they could to pay .a certain
amount of cash for each mile
they walked. They started at the
Oldsmobile garage in Hastings
and walked to the Zion Lutheran
Church, a total of 15 miles.
Proceeds from this hike will go to
worthy causes to be decided by
the group later. It seems good to
see a group like this doing
something good for others - and
enjoying it.
If you saw some newspapers
scattered on the streets of
Woodland and in the country, you
might also have had some
questions. This was not done by a
careless paperboy but rather the
action of somebody trying to be
funny. It fails to be funny when
you consider the cost and trouble
involved.
The Lions Club hosted the zone
meeting. They enjoyed a
delicious meal prepared by Mrs.
Karl Dillenbeck. There was a
good representation from the
clubs in this zone. A business
meeting followed lhe dinner. The
club met again for their regular
meeting. Again they enjoyed a
delicious meal. Rodney Jordan
and Raymond Hankey from lhe
Food Inspection Division of the
Michigan
Department
of
Agriculture were the speakers.
They gave interesting talks on
their work then led an open
discussion. It appeared v1*
teresting and the men learned
quite a bit about buying meat. It
takes more than just going into
lhe store and saying “I’ll Jake
that.” Following the program a
board meeting was conducted by
President Buxton. At this
meeting it was voted to donate to
the Welcome Home of the Blind,
the Leader Dog School and the
eye bank. Thoughts have already

to speak at a joint meeting of the
Rotary and Kiwanis Clubs held at
Leason Sharpe Memorial Hall.
started towards Christmas.
Plans will soon start being madefor the Christmas party at which
time the ladies will be guests.
The club will also donate to the
Community
Project
for
Christmas baskets to be given
throughout the Lakewood area.
The sight mobile will be in
Woodland November 22,23 and 24
on Main Street between the hours
of 4 and 8 p.m. This will be for the
public and it is hoped that
everyone will take advantage of
this project. The Lions will also
donate to the Boy Scouts. This ia
a good organization and will help
to make better adults in the
future. It helps to give the boys of
today a chance in life. John
Ommen was accepted into the
Lions.
Mr. and Mrs. Loren Her­
shberger were dinner guests with
her sister Mrs. Gertude Mass in
Grand Haven. Other Guests
included her daughter Mr. and
Mrs. Jake Westra, the girls sister
Mr. and Mrs. Charles Van Lente
and Bob and the Hershbergers
daughter Mr. and Mrs. Victor
Obuman from Spring Lake.

The Freshmen Vikings did it
again. They finished their season
by defeating Greenville. These
boys have a great record. Their
coaches also deserve a big thanks
for their efforts. It must be
rewarding to have a group of
boys work so hard to win. The
cheerleaders have also worked
hard this past season. Their
efforts all paid off and they made
a good name for their school. Mr.
Maybery was host for a party
honoring the team and the
cheerleaders.
The Child Study Club will meet
Thursday, November 18 at the
home of Mrs. Roger Flannigan.
Mrs. Eldon Flessner will present
an interesting program. All
members are urged to attend and
bring a guest.

YOUR HOME ...

LETTER TO DETROIT FREE PRESS, FEBRUARY, 1969
“To the Editor:
Dear Sir:
In your editorial entitled, ‘Long Neglected Lesson1 in your issue
of February 1. you say, ‘had Mr. Johnson recognized that the Vietcong were South Vietnamese fighting for a place in their own country
and their own government......*
What the Vietcong are fighting for, and are determined to have, is
an unadulterated communist government in South Vietnam.
Mr. Lodge’s proposal to Hanoi for a mutual withdrawal from
South Vietnam was immediately rejected.
When the French withdrew from Vietnam in 1954, if things had
been allowed to take their course without outside interference, or if
elections had been held in 1956 as planned, there would now be a well
established communist government over all Vietnam, perhaps en­
croaching on Laos and Thailand according to the ‘Dulles Domino
Th&lt;!® that would be far better than it is now,, with our 31,000 dead
soldiers and a million or more Vietnamese in refugee camps, with no
homes to go back to and the country being destroyed, and many other
miseries because of our presence.
The non-communist people in Russia and China must be thankful
indeed that we are not trying lo save them from communism, by
invasion!
.......
, ,
,
What should Mr. Johnson.have done? Should he have abandoned
the Truman doctrine to contain communism? Should he have gone
back on the promises of three presidents? Should he have refused to
repeal the ‘aggression’ of North Vietnam? Should he have left our
25,900 soldiers to be overcome?
The next time we undertake to save a country from communism,
let’s pick out one that has a government devoted to the interests of the
Seal mass of the people, oijg that tlfc people will support and fight
r and a country where our intervention would do more good than
harm, and where there is a good change of success: And let us get the
approval and support of other countries.
Every country in the world wants us out of Vietnam. Perhaps we
could get them to help us gel out, with a minimum of humiliation and
bad faith; and help protect the people who would be endangered by
our withdrawal. No matter how much it cost it would be cheaper than
spying there.
Very truly yours.
M. C. Nichols"
At the present stage of the American invaslion of Indochina,
there has been 45,000 American soldiers killed and 300,000 wounded,
one million civilian casualties incident to air and artillery action.
Refugees fleeing the American invasion are put at five million
South Vietnamese, 1&gt;A million Cambodians, 750,000 Lauotians.
One writer calls opposition to what is going on in Indochina anti­
war hysteria.
.■
Another writer says it is to our interest lo keep Thieu m power in
Saigon and we must be tolerant of his mistakes. I assume this means
a continuation of the present policy. I cannot conceive of any interest
of ours that would justify what we are doing.

Delton Drug
Study Draws
Few People
The main topic on the agenda
when the Delton-Kellogg School’s
Citizens Advisory Committee
met was the Drug Education
Program and it’s progress
toward implementation into the
school curriculum.
In light of the few people who
have turned out for the public
viewing and approval of the films
before showing them to students,
the
Advisory
Committee
suggested that a list of the films
screened thus far be presented to
the school board along with the
suggestion that the Drug
Awareness Program be com­
bined with the present Family
Living course and that the two
committees consider a merger.
Other items on the agenda
were evaluation of conferences,
trends in education curriculum,
and discussion on the necessity of
a building program and the in­
volvement of the Advisory
Committee in this program.
Officers of this committee,
which has 22
members
representing one member for
each 100 students enrolled in
Delton school are: Don Roberts,
president; Ray Wisnewski, vice­
president, and Mrs. Robert
Chamberlain, secretary­
treasurer.

Commission’s order to Barry
County to increase its 1971
equalized valuation by five
percent—which
automatically
hiked Hastings’ tax base by
$1,084,433—Mayor Cedric S.
Morey has invited Chairman
Robert L. Purnell or a com­
mission representative to attend
a City Council meeting to tell
“why.”
.
Mayor Morey wrote Chairman
Purnell:
"We have in the City of
Hastings a substantial number of
property taxpayers who are
disturbed about the current tax
picture. I am sure lack of in­
formation and communication
are, to a marked degree,
responsible for their unhappiness
and I am asking for information
as well as a visit from the State
Tax Commission.
"The City of Hastings just
recently hired Gem Surveyors of
Bay City to reassess the city at a
cost of $28,000 and they raised our
property valuation $1,084,000
which was added to our
$32,000,000 valuation. The total
Barry County valuation is ap­
proximately $142,000,000.
"Why should an equalization
factor of 5 percent be applied to
the City of Hastings right after
we have paid $28,000 to equalize
and raise our valuations?
"We are already paying over 25
percent of the county budget, and
while I realize 80 percent of the
county budget goes for school

In Hastings/ Michigan

�Brickley Asks
Support For
Tax Reform
Michigan's Lt. Gov. James H.
Brickley urged Rotarians and
Kiwanians to get behind Gov.
William G. Milliken’s school tax
reform program as a means of
bringing equal and quality
education to all the children in
the State.
Speaking at a joint luncheon
meeting of the two service clubs
held Monday, Nov. 8, at Leason
Sharpe Memorial Hall in
Hastings, Brickley said he hoped
that sufficient signatures could
be obtained to get it on the 1972
ballot.
Ability to Pay Basis
Using the income tax, which is
based on ability to pay, rather
than the property tax to finance
education is much fairer, and
would help out poorer areas,
Brickley asserted.
Making his first official visit to
Hastings, ever, Lt. Gov. Brickley
said he didn’t believe a
unicameral legislature was what
Michigan needs. He called for a
reduction in the senators and
representatives in our two-house
system.
Reducing the number of
legislators would provide each
with greater visibility which
would result in accountability, he
explained.
On Crime Committee
Brickley said that many of us
equate democracy as having
representatives close to the
people, but that eight out of 10
didn’t know who their legislators
were, but they did know their U.
S. senators.
He said that the first
assessment of the 18 year old vote
in November indicated ti^at the
young people are voting about as
their elders-no better or worse.
Lt. Gov. Brickley explained his
work, which includes presiding
over the senate and.acting as
•governor when ^lillikeh is out of
•the State. , . ’ .
■.
He is chairman of the com­
mittee studying crime and
outlined the giant strides being
made in creating regional police
centers and attempts at crime
prevention.
Study Local Government
He is also chairman of the
committee which is studying
ways of increasing its relevancy
of local government. He said
political boundaries of many
governmental units were all right
long ago, but now they serve little
purpose. He said the study in­
cludes ways of strengthening
county home rule. A county
government can serve as a
“metro’’ or regional government
for sprawling suburban areas.
Brickley declared that the
Legislature has turned out a lot of
good work during this session,
but extending it doesn't gain that
much more benefits.
Legislators are not disciplined,
and House Speaker Ryan is to
blame. Brickley said Ryan is a
hard worker but doesn’t meet
deadlines.
Brickley said most things have
been reformed and modernized,
but not government.
At the joint meeting Duane
Jarman, president of Kiwanis,
presented Stanley Cummings.

of his years of work for the club

�EDITORIAL
------------------------ by R. M. C.---------------------------Are Americans losing their drive to be No. 1?
That possibility has worried President Nixon who points out a
historical truth when he says that "Once a nation ceases trying to be
No. 1, that nation will not be a great nation. Let it not happen lo
America."
.
In all this discussion, it would appear that the term No. 1 lacks
sufficient definition and clarity. People who use it can be in general
agreement on objectives while at the same time lining up on different
sides of the argument.
Possibly instead of using the term "No. 1," it might have been
better to phrase the question somewhat as follows: "Do you believe
that America should forever^trive to make the best possible use al all
times of its human and material resources for maximum benefit to
itself and to mankind?"
When one speaks of No. 1 in connection with America, a sizeable
minority, at least, have in mind world leadership as a military power
and our position since World War II as the main police force of the
free world. President Nixon, himself, believes it no longer practical
for our nation to function in this latter capacity. Rather, international
security should be a joint effort with each country involved con­
tributing its fair share of manpower, materials and expense.
As a matter of fact, we are not now the No. 1 military power in the
world. Although we have, and should strive to maintain, retaliatory
capabilities that-will discourage aggression against us, the fact
reu.ains that both Russia and China have larger land armies than we
do and Russia has the larger navy. In air power, the Soviet and the
U.S.A, are pretty much on a par—and, short of a meaningful in­
ternational accord, we should strive to keep it that way.
We could become second rate quickly and in a way none of us
would like if we let down our guard too soon.
»
But in the Helds of science, medicine, dentistry, industry,
engineering„agriculture,the arts, etc., few, if any of us, would wish to
see America accept a secondary role so long as we have the will and
the capacity to maintain a position near the top.
Americans are taking an increasing interest in ecology, Lakes,
forests, rivers and even the air we breath have in the past been taken
for granted. Now we know that if proper action is not taken much of
the scenic beauties and natural resources of our nation will be
damaged beyond repair. We will, in short be passing on to the next
generation a thoroughly dirty world.
Here is a new field in which America js taking a lead and all of us
hope that we can move into No. 1 position. International action will be
required to meet some of the threatening situations—preventing
contamination of the oceans, for example—and it is here that the
United States can and should be willing to fulfill a role of top
leadership.
The United States faces serious problems in the degeneration of
many of its metropolitan area. Here are challenging social conditions
for which no one, as yet, seems to have an adequate answer. Yet, in
this area an overwhelming maiority of Americans would agree that
their nation should strive for the No. 1 position in progress and ac­
complishment.
America has achieved the No. 1 spot in space exploration. Those
who claim this has been a waste of time, money and effort that might
better have been used for rebuilding slums, overlook the tremendous
advances in science and technology thpt have been made as a result
of the space program—advances that have and will continue to make
invaluable c'-ntributions to just about every phase of our economy.
However, Americans should be willing to retire from the No. 1 spot in
this field if working agreements can be worked out with Russia and
other nations interested in space exploration for a joint program that
will cut down on duplication of effort and reduce the costs to all
nations involved. Here is a situation where America could exert a No.
1 quality of leadership by giving up the No. l.spot to make way for a
joint effort by world scientists. In this area, we would not be No. 2 but
rather one of several equals on a team that has far greater potential
than any one nation working alone. That is No. 1 leadership at its best.
Being No. 1 merely as a matter of prestige, does not make sense.
However, Americans, we believe, should be interested and concerned
in getting the maximum from the talents and resources at their
command. If we attain and hold the No. 1 spot under such cir­
cumstances, we do ourselves and the world a favor.
If we permit ourselves to relax and exchew competition merely
because we are disillusioned and unhappy over such things as our
involvement in Viet Nam, then we are no longer No. 1—in fact, not
even second rate.
However, there are still millions of people in America who love
and appreciate their country. To his group, patriotism is still a work
of real significance.
Americans such as these will be forever interested in competitive
effort not so much for the sake of competition and prestige as to prove
to ourselves and the world that we have what it takes to register
worthwhile accomplishments in line with the quality of our human
talent and resources.
These are mixed up limes in which we live. The Ecuadorian
patrol boat that fired on American fishing boats in international
waters off Equador the other day was a converted U.S. Coast Guard
cutter—one of nine on loan to Equador. These ships went to Equador
as partita foreign aid package subject to recall on thirty-day notice
if the U.sS^Qdesires. Overall, this is a minor incident but one that
does lend suppbrt to the argument that our entire foreign aid program
is in need of a drastic revision.
Why not accept the obvious fact that foreign aid never wins
friends and then proceed on the course of confining deals to areas that
stand at least a chance of being mutually profitable.

Denis Healy, British M.P. and foreign-affairs specialist recently
referred to Soviet intelligence operations (105 Russian agents were
recently ousted from England on charges of espionage) as "the
biggest feather-bedded industry in the world"—arguing that
thousands of Russian spies "Have a wonderful time in foreign
countries, collecting information that could be collected much faster
with a girl, a pair of scissors and a pile of newspapers."
Healy’s statement is, unfortunately, more numerous than ac­
curate. We should never permit ourselves to forget that, thanks to a
Jet-down in our own security regulations, Soviet agents operating
right here in the United States were able to steal and transmit to
Moscow all of the essential technical data regarding atomic
production. Russian spying operations cannot be dismissed as cloak
and dagger slapstick comedy. In brief, Soviet agents are no mere
"lushwells” living it up in ease and comfort in foreign lands. Rather
they are tough minded, ruthless, highly trained individuals who know
exactly what they are after and how to go about getting it. We, here in
the United States cannot afford to overlook that elemental bit of truth.

File Medicare
Claims Quickly
To avoid delay in Medicare
payment, patients should file
claims promptly after they get
their doctor bills, according to
Raymond C. Backus, social
security District Manager in
Grand Rapids.
‘‘Many people let their medical
bills accumulate until the end of
the year and then file their claim.
This tends to create a clerical
backlog that can cause delays in
payment,” Backus said.
Claims are filed on “Request
for Medicare Payment” forms
available al most doctors’ offices
and at any social security office.
Backus said. Your Medicare
Handbook tells where claims
forms should be sent. In most
cases, physicians submit claims
for their services under Medicare
themselves and1,pre paid.directly
by the government.

Fire Damages
Lightcap Home
A fire of undertermined origin
caused considerable damage to
the home of Mr. and Mrs. Carl
Lightcap on the Keller Road west
of Guernsey Lake about 12:15
p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 16.
,
The fire apparently started in
the stairwell leading from the
basement to the main floor of the
ranch-type structure.
SON DISCOVERS FIRE
Lee, 5, was in the basement and
discovered the fire. His mother,
Loraine, attempted to call the
Delton Fire Department but
couldn’t get through so drove
with Lee to the John Johncock
farm to the east where the Delton
firemen were alarmed. Firemen
were also dispatched from
Hastings.
Mrs. Lightcap had shut the
door lightly, and the fire
evidently burned itself out for
lack of oxygen by the time the
firemen arrived.
The Lightcaps other two
children were at school. They had
moved into the home last March.
Carl is employed by Reahm
Motor Sales in Hastings.

____ hunters are busy
tromping the woods trying to
scare up those clever animals to
shoot. This may seem like a
shame to some but each of us
have our favorite sports. To some

out onto the roads where cars

sure there is nobody in your linef

Sunday they called on Mrs.

The community was saddened
when word spread of the tragic
accident of Ray Gould. He and
his cousin were killed Nov. 14 in a
one car crash. Our sympathy is
extended to his wife, children,
parents and other family
members. The local United Fund
has not yet given up. The receipts
are somewhat behind what they
should be. Many other com­
munities are falling short also
but we should try to get more.
Many organizations are going to
hurt from this drop in the budget.

Over 25.000
Golfers Play
River Bend
Don Haywood reports that 1971
JorJ?fh mXrl
. mor.e
than 25,000 rounds of golf played,
an increase of about 5,000 rounds
over J970.
Jladdition to heavy play, a new
nine has been constructed. It will
be known as the ‘‘North Nine”
(its on the north side of W. State
Road) and is more than 3,000
yards long and has a unique
layout with a lot of sand traps.
One Waler Hazard
The North Nine differs con­
siderably from the present
course in that it has just one
water hazard. The course has a
180 yard par 3 hole, a 400 yard par
4 olqs two oar 5s in excess of son
yards. The fairways will be
watered.
.
The plan, once the new nine is
in operation, is for one nine to be
reserved for those golfers who
purchase annual or monthly
greens fees at River Bend. The
reserved" nine will also be
rotated each week so that a
different nine is reserved each
week.
Ready by June
The North Nine should be
ready for play sometime next
June, Haywood said*, if the
weather cooperates.
This year a new addition to the
club house was built, adding 3,280
sq. ft. of floorspace. It includes a
new pro shop, women’s locker
room, club storage and a 30 by 62
recreation room.
It is heated and insulated for
winter activities. The three
shuffel board courts will be open
for leagues. A pool table and a
driving net have been installed.
Anyone interested in forming a
shuffle board league should
contact River Bend.

Powell, a frequent Hastings visitor as he represents this area in
the Legislature, supported a House amendment allowing schools to
affiliate with any organization which seeks "promotion of sport or the
adoption of rules’’ governing conduct of those participating in
competition between schools.

Family Burns
Out Twice
Within Year
Twice this year Mr. and Mrs.
Paul Smith and four -children
found themselves without a
home.
Last Jan. 21 Mrs. Smith and
three of their children escaped
the flames clad only in what they
had on when a fire destroyed
•their home on the McKeown
Road south of M-79. That night
Paul was at work as a fire
discovered about midnight
destroyed their large home.
Wednesday, Nov. 17, at 1:56
p.m. Hustings firemen were
summoned to ^"Smith’s home '
on Dowling Road, about three
miles east of Dowling, and by the
time they arrived flames had
almost completely enveloped the
10 room, two story frame
structure.
Fire Chief Donald Sothard said
Smith was home alone al the time
the fire was discovered. Smith
said his wife had returned home
about 1 p.m. after doing the
laundry, and told Paul that one of
the oil tanks had tipped over.
Smith said oil was running out of
both 275 gallon fuel oil tanks as
the copper tube between them
had broken. Paul righted the one
and bent the tube to stop lhe flow
of oil.
He said there was about an inch
of oil all over lhe basement floor.
The oil fumes were so strong he
sent his wife and two children
elsewhere, and called Clarks—
where he works the second
shift—to inform them that he
wouldn’t be at work as he had to
clean up-the oil.
Paul said he was in the
bathroom when he first noticed
the smoke seeping up through the
floors.
,
The house was destroyed. Paul
saved a few pieces of furniture.
He said he had $6,000 in insurance
on his belongings. The home,
owned by Bud Sexton who lives
the next place to the west, was insured.
'
The Smith's children are Mark,
10; Paid, 8; Shawn, 5, and Todd,

New Draft Regs Set
For December
The Selective Service System
has released a list of significant
changes in regulations which will
affect young men facing the draft
process in the future.
The changes will supplement
the amendments to the Selective
Service Act which were recently
signed into law by lhe President.
They are expected to become
effective throughout the more
than 4,000 local draft boards in
early December. Prior to their
effective date, interested persons
may submit their written
views on the prospective
regulations to the director of
selective service.
One of the major changes
concerns 2-S Student deferments.
Undergraduate college students
who were not enrolled on a full­
time basis and making
satisfactory progress toward a
baccalaureate degree during the
regular 1970-71 academic year
will not qualify for 2-S defer­
ments. The regulations also will
set similar criteria for students
in junior colleges, trade and
technical schools and ap­
prenticeship programs.

The establishment of a new
classification-l-H-also is one of
the significant items in lhe long
list
of
changes.
This
classification will be an ad­
ministrative holding category,
and men in Class 1-H cutoff
number will be set and with a few
exceptions, men with lotterv
numbers above the cutoff
number will remain or be placed
in Class 1-H for their period of
prime exposure to the draft.
The new regulations also will
establish time limits for personal
appearances. Each registrant
will be entitled to such time for
his personal appearance with his*
local’ board as is reasonably’
necessary for a fair presentation
of his claim. Normally, 15
minutes will be deemed adequate
for this purpose. He also will be
allowed to bring up to three
witnesses to the meeting. The
same criteria will pertain to a
registrant who elects to meet
with his appeal board, except
that he will not have the right to
bring witnesses.

was the first Pastor. July 3rd, the Lord’s Supper was commemorated
for the first time; and on August 14lh the first baptism was that of
John Griffeth. In August. I860, the Prairie School house was ex­
changed as a place of worship for the Methodist Eqiscopal Church at
Middleville; whenever the church was not in use for $30. a month. In
August, 1866, the church name was changed to that of First Baptist
Church of Middleville.

The old church building^which is not the Village Hall) was
erected in 1867 and dedicated in J$nuary, 1868. The building cost
about $4,000. which was subscribed before work was begun. April 12,
1868 a Baptist Sunday School was organized. The parsonage, which is
still in use, was erected in 1876. August 23rd, 1903, the Golden Anniversaij of the church was celebrated; and in 1953, the Centenial
WaSThe present pastor, Rev. JerrjrFarter, came in March of 1967. In
1968 lano was purchased just Norfn of Middleville and in 1969 a new
church edifice was dedicated and baiow in use. The church stands for
the Word of God and preaches the death, burial, and resurrection of
Christ and the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ as the only
remission of sins. The First Baptist Church is composed of a warm
congregation and a cordial invitation is extended to everyone to visit
and worship with this fine group.

No One Can Sell Medicare .
Agent Warns
“Beware of any person at­
tempting to sell you Medicare,”
warned Raymond C. Backus,
District Manager at Grand
Rapids Social Security Office.
‘fYour social security office isi
the place to enroll for Medicare,
a government health insurance•
program,*’
he
continued.
’’Medicare is not sold door to,
door or in any other fashion.
Anyone representing himself asi
selling Medicare should be.
reported to the nearest law en­.
forcement agency immediately,”
he said.
Such people can usually bet

detected by their attempt to
collect money in advance. Since
Medicare is a government health
insurance program, it employs
no salesmen nor does it have
agents. It is administered by the
Social Security Administration
which has offices in most areas.
To enroll," simply .contact your
social security office. In Grand
Rapids the address is 60 North
Division Avenue, and the
telephone number is 456-2241.
‘‘Remember,’’ Backus coneluded, “you do not buy Medicare

Spending a little money on proper car maintenance actu­

Sound confusing? Actually It Isn't, and here’s why.
If you have bought a shiny new car, naturally you want to
keep It In proper shape, not only because It Is safer to drive,
but because eventually; if you’re like most people, you will
want to trade it In.
A well maintained car, according to both new and used car
dealers, is worth more at trade-in time than a car which h£s
not been properly maintained. In many cases the difference
can be as much as several hundred dollars.
“Wo love to sec a ear that’s in good shape both inside and

There’s another good reason to keep a car maintained
properly, and that’s the warranty which came with your

“No(V we/ know ‘ he will be
renewing his insurance. But by
law, we cannot send the tab to
someone whose insurance has
lapsed without his paying $45 into
the Motor Vehicle, Accident
Claims Fund.”
Austin recommended that
motorists who have insurance
expiration dates close to the time
of purchase should renew their
insurance first, then send in the
prepared application with the
new date.
"One of our biggest complaints
over the past few years has been
over the $1.00 insured motorists
had to pay into the Fund. We've
done away with the $1.00. Yet,
people are sending it in with their
applications."
All checks or money orders
must be made out to the State of
Michigan for the correct amount.
Therefore, the Department of
State must return aft checks and
money orders that have included
the $1 .Op and ask that a new one
be sent in, Austin said.
For uninsured, the cost of
buying their 1972 tabs has gone
up $10. They now must pay an
additonal $45 to the Motor
Vehicle Accident Claims Fund,
he said.
However, under the state laws,
an uninsured motorist cannot pay
the $45 by personal check. It must
be paid with either a certified
check or a money order, he said.
Therefore, the uninsured
mototist must enclose two
checks, one.fpr his lab at the cost
indicated on “his prepared ap­
plication and made out to the
State of Michigan, and a certified
check or money order for $45
made out to the Michigan Motor
Vehicle Accident Claims Fund.
And finally, owners have been
separating the prepared ap­
plication, and sending only one
half in with* their money, Austin
said.
"Maybe they want to save us a
little time or work. Un­
fortunately, we need both
halves,” Austin said.
"Both have to be stamped and
recorded, and, quite frequently,
the owner has sent in the wrong
half.”
।
Austin indicated that it is very
important that both sections of
the prepared application be
returned.
"Purchase of the 1972 tabs by
mail was designed to make it
easier for the Michigan motorist.
If he follows instructions he will,
find that it is easier to buy the
tabs. If he does not follow in­
structions, he may find it more
difficult,” Austin said.

A car in good shape will also

accidents, but driving at any
time of year can be hazardous
under poor weather conditions. It
is, of course, best’to not drive at
all in bad weather, and never
drive when visibility is so poor
you cannot see effectively. But if
it is essential that you use your
car, these general safety tips can
provide added protection against
accidents:
Make sure you can see
properly before you drive.
Windshields should be com­

frost, as should all car.windows,

When roads are slippery,

Fast Mrviccl
distance of about four car lengths
from the motorist ahead of you.
Even at a speed of 25 miles per
hour, a car with snow tires needs
about 170 feet to stop on an icy
road. Try to anticipate stops, and
slow gradually on icy roads by
gently pumping brakes to
prevent skidding on surfaces
made glassy by cars starting and
stopping. Always watch for icy
patches at intersections, on hills,
curves and on bridges.
If your wheels lock during
braking, release the brake pedal
for an instant, then pump brakes
lightly. Never give a sudden and
sharp twist to the steering wheel.
This can cause the car to skid or
to go into a spin. And never brake
when your car starts to skid.
Instead, release the accelerator
and steer in the direction in
which the rear of the car is
sliding. As soon as you regain
control of the car, straighten the
front wheels.
Have your car checked
carefully before winter, drive
safely and enjoy the weather,
don’t fight it.

TUNE UP
YOUR CAR
as you drive

Autos Kept In Tune
Hum Clean Air Song
It used to be when a mo­
torist pulled into a service
outlet and told an employee
to “Check the Edr,” it was a
natural assumption to look
at tire pressure.
Today, checking the air has
an additional meaning. It
means checking the engine
to make sure the car is not
adding unduly to the na­
tion’s air pollution problem.
Even though the nation’s
auto manufacturers have
taken significant strides in
reducing air pollution from
automobile engines, the fail­
ure of the car owner to keep
his engine in shape has
helped slow progress.
For example, studies by
Champion Spark Plug Com­
pany show that a five per­
cent incidence of spark plug
misfiring, caused by engine
neglect, can increase the
emission of pollutants by 300
percent. And studies T&gt;y a
group at the University of
Michigan engineering school
show that harmful emissions
can be reduced by an aver­
age of 55 percent after a
tune-up.
HOW TUNE-UP CONTROLS
POLLUTION

Causes of pollutants Eire
the wastes from gasoline
that are incompletely
burned. These wastes are
minimized in a tuned engine.
When an engine is out of
tune, there may not be com­
plete combustion of the gasollne/alr mixture and a
greater production of con­
taminants is the result.
Therefore, an engine check
every 5,000 miles and a com­
plete tune-up every 10,000
miles is recommended.

In addition to elements of
a tune-up, there are other
key items to help cut down
on pollution: the PCV valve,
the oil filter, the air filter
and the gas filter.
• • •
PCV means "positive
crankcase ventilation,” but
we can call it “pollution con­
trol valve” for easier under­
standing. The system has a
valve which regulates the
flow of noxious fumes into
the carburetor so that en­
gines will continue to run
while reducing pollution.
PCV valves should- be
changed every 12,000 miles
or every tune-up. If a valve
becomes plugged or worn it
is useless.
OIL FILTER: Smoke­
belching engines are worn
out. They wear out when
grit, acids and other junk in
the oil enlarge the cylinder
walls permitting the engine
to burn tbaoil.^
The bfest way &gt;to prevent
this polluting,-Wear is to
change oil and oil filter at
least every 4,000 miles.
AIR FILTER: With every
gallon of gasoline a car
bums, it also Inhales 10,000
gallons of air. If the air is
dusty, the grit wears out the
cylinder walls, permitting oil
to be burned, which pollutes.
Also, as the filter traps dust,
the amount of air entering
the engine is reduced... en­
riching the fuel-air mixture,
which pollutes.
So change the air filter
every tune-up.
GAS FILTER: Grit in gas­
oline can plug carburetors
and cause stalling. So it's
also important to change
gasoline filters.

Discuss Fees
With Doctor
Worried about physician’s
fees?
Then talk it over with your
doctor, openly and frankly.
That’s the advice Of AMA UP­
DATE, a monthly newsletter of
the
American
Medical
Association.
Many patients are em­
barrassed about mentioning fees
when they start going to a
physician, UPDATE notes. But
the doctor would prefer that you
bring up the subject, because you
know your financial situation and
he does not.
Best thing is to ask him about
fees on your first visit, UPDATE
suggests. Why not be straight­
forward about it?

New Absence System Helps Attendance Problem

A new absence system was
adopted this year and according
to Assistant Principal, Roger
Eggers, the attendance at
Lakewood High School has been
excellent.
’■ a student misses five days, a
letter is sent home to his parents,
and if he misses four more days
he receives an E in each class.
The exceptions to this rule in­

“No attendance policy "is
perfect," Eggers stated. "But for
a school of our size the students
are more serious about at­
tendance."
A record kept since the
beginning of school shows that
from September 27-30, 192
students were absent. This
averaged out to 48 students a day
being absent. The class with the
most absentees within this period
was the sophomores with 59. The
sophomores also had the most
absent in one day. Twenty-two
were absent September 27. The
total of absents for this month
were:
freshman,
32;
sophomores, 59; juniors, 50; and
seniors 51.

From October 25-29 the record
shows that 268 students were
absent. This averaged out to be 53
students per day. The junior
class total of 106 absences was
the highest. On October 27 the
sophomores had 33 absences
which was the most in one day.
The totals for this month were:
freshman, 65; sophomores, 105;
juniors, 106; seniors, 98.
The record shows that during
the second week of November,
275 students were absent. This
averaged 55 students a day. The
juniors and seniors both totaled
80 students absent this week.

Once again the sophomores had
the most absent in one day. On
November 8, 27 students were
absent. The totals for this week
were:
freshman,
45;
sophomores, 70; juniors, 80; and
seniors, 80.
On October 5 a special record
was kept. There were 71 ab­
sences. There were 10 freshmen,
18 sophomores, 24 juniors and 19
seniors absent. Thirty-two girls
were absent and 39 boys.
"Students can’t be educated
unless they are here.” Mr. ,
Eggers concluded.

It is impossible to live on this
planet and not be aware of how
rapidly the earth is being covered
with pavement, concrete and
steel. As the world’s population
recklessly increases, so does the
need for more buildings an&lt;K
housing structures.
Even in Delton one can see the
effect of the population,
multiplication. The school
especially shows this growth.
With almost 2,400 students this
year, and an estimated 1,200
more in the next 10 years, the
school has been forced to expand
in order to comfortably ac­
commodate the increase in
enrollment.
Over the last few years Delton
Kellogg school has spread out
over the land, choking out the
natural earth. Another building
may be added to the existing
structures within the next few
years, another slab of concrete,
steel and pavement where the

the local businesses and friends
around the Delton area. Some of
the prizes given away were
stuffed animals, gasoline,
turkeys, chickens and a blender.
There was a new addition last
year, the cider stand. Some
mothers and children went to a

apples, then had them made into
cider which they sold at Family

A big event at Delton is Family

people of Delton have enjoyed the
activities and each year it has
been a real success.
This evening of fun involves
many hours of planning by
Delton’s Mothers Club, sponsor
of the event. They have been
organizing the event since their
first meeting in September.
Many other parents also
participated in helping Family

beautiful earth should be. We
can't allow this to dontinue.
How else can we deal with this
increasing number of students?
The real answer is so obvious
that it makes one wonder. How
can we stop the oozing concrete
from covering the entire earth?
Simply by no longer building out.
Now we must build up. Of course
this makes a multi-story
structure more expensive than a
one story building, after con­
sidering the need for rein­
forcement and a large foun­
dation.
But the time has come to plan ,
our growth if we want our
children and grandchildren to
know nature, to experience it. By
spending a few extra dollars and
building new structures multi­
leveled, we. can, at least, delay
the smothering of the earth.
We can’t allow our beautiful
Filanet to become incased in a
ifeless shell. We must look ahead
and make our future all that it
can be. We must begin now to
plan our growth.

�Give Senior Citizen Show
By Debbie Wright
What does the American youth
ever do for our country today,
besides ruin it? Students often
hear this question.
Two speech classes, instructed
by Mrs. Dorothy Carpenter, have
shown one way youth can be
helpful.
After practicing these past few
weeks for the final Thanksgiving
program, the students put on a
special program in Nashville for
the senior citizens. The prografn
was made up of original skits and
individual roles.
At the beginning of the
program students, as turkeys,
attacked the Pilgrims in "Turkey
Revolt”, a comedy reversing the
original history. They men took
part in an "Emergency Landing”
where a spaceship landed on a
unidentified planet. Passengers
at the spaceship taught their new
friends the meaning of
Thanksgiving and what you have
to be thankful for.
A skit done in poem form,
“Mother’s
Little
Angel”
presented a little girl refusing to
do what her mother wants her to
do. Next in the line of action, a
super "turkey” character helps
the president and his cabinet
solve problems in "Tom
Turkey”.
A special Thanksgiving prayer
was read in poem form,

illustrated with pictures of ob­
jects we are thankful for. Last,
an
‘ ‘ OT d-f a sh i o n e d
Thanksgiving” was performed at
the turn of the century, featuring
a turkey chase through the
vegetable garden.
The senior citizens enjoyed the
afternoon and will be looking
forward to a second per­
formance.

Compete for Scholarships—There were 181 seniors from Middleville, Lakewood.
Wayland. Maple Valley and Hastings in Hastings to take the 1971 Michigan Competitive
Scholarship examination given in the lecture hall at HHS. The students began taking their
scholastic aptitude test about 8 a.m. and they were through about 11:45. The results, HHS
Counselor Wright Sim said, will be announced individually in December. Students must submit
a family financial statement in order to be eligible for consideration for a scholarship grant
from money appropriated by the State . The tests are also the basis for grants in aid by various
colleges and also some banks use them as a basis for private loans.—Banner photo.

State Legislator Speaks Of New Law
By Diana Becker
Thornapple Kellogg High School

government passed a blanket law
in 1971, the state legislature
passed an enabling act.
Dively,
originally
from
Cleveland, Ohio, attended
William's
College
in
Massachusetts and studied law at
the University of Michigan. He is
a member of the American and
State Bar Associations.
Besides his interest in youth,
Dively does civic, charitable and
religious work. He also works to
aid the Indians and is seeking

solutions to the pollution
dilemma.
Dively said the
state
legislature is now discussing the
possibility of allowing some parts
of the new law to go into effect
before January 1, such as
allowing 18 year olds to drink
legally before that date.
Some people don’t think the 18
year old person will be capable of
handling his new responsibilities,
but the majority of students hope
to prove these pessimists wrong.

The rights and responsibilities
of 18 year olds under the new Age
of Majority Act of 1971 was the
subject discussed when Rep.
Michael Dively, R-Traverse City,
visited the 20th Century class at
Thornapple Kellogg High School,
Monday, November 15.
Dively, representative for the
104th District, explained the'new

cigarettes and liquor, and their

COOKING DEMONSTRATION—
Phyllis Hurst, home economics
teacher in Hastings Jurior High
School, has a class of all boys, so
she invited George (Buzz)
Youngs to give a demonstration
to show that men do enjoy
cooking. Youngs, who often cooks
after the golf session is over,
prepared a real stew for the .
young men. Because of the short
class period, it didn’t get done in
time and the project, was carried
over until the next day with the
boys finishing the cooking.—

Comments on the War

By Mortimer C. Nichols
CHINA X------ -"x
For more than 2000 years, The Chihese Empire was the most
stable and civilized country in the world.
In the early years of the Christian era it was sending silk and
other luxuries by caravan and in ships to Europe.
In the 13th century, Marco Polo of Venice, Italy, made two trips
to China. In his book he describes his impressions in part, as
follows: cities of unparalleled magnificence, impressive public
works, law and order, efficient government, an atmosphere of
culture and refinement.
Soon after the discovery of America, traders of Western
Europe began coming to China. Trading was done China’s way
until about 1800, when the military power of the Europeans sur­
passed that of China.
During the 19th century there was an increasing encroachment
on the independence of China, thus creating a strong antiforeign
sentiment.
In 1900 the Boxer Rebellion took the lives of many foreigners
and caused the destruction of considerable foreign property.
In 1911 the teachings of Sun-yat-sen brought about the over­
throw of the Empire and the establishment of a republic. This soon
sagged into a corrupt dictatorship.
In the early twenties, with the aid of a small communist group
from Russia, a Nationalist government was formed with Chiang
Kai-shek at the head.
........................................
In the late twenties, the Nationalists found they didn’t like the
communists and expelled them from the government.
By 1931 a group of Chinese communists had set up a Soviet *
Republic of their own. In 1934 they were driven out. 140,000 started
on their 6000 mile trek, and ended in Northwest China, their
number reduced to 20.000 and Mao Tse-tung their leader. .
In the meantime, Japan had taken possession of Manchuria
and a large part of Northern China. In 1937, Japan invaded China,
occupying most of the large cities, and driving Chiang and his
army and the government into Chung king in Southwest China.
The weapons of the Japanese who surrendered to the
Americans went to Chiang’s forces and the weapons of those who
surrendered to the. Russians, went to Mao's troops.
Chiang now had 3,000,000 well armed troops and Mao, 1,000,000.
Chiang stationed his troops, in the large cities.
President Truman set about trying to reconcile the two fac­
tions. Four generals gave up, one after the other. Chiang thought
the U.S. would not permit the communists to win, and Mao was
sure the communists would wiit in the end.
Mao started out in 1947 to cut off supplies from one city after
another where Chiang's troops were stationed. Chiang’s troops
seemed paralyzed. As time went on they would surrender at tne
mere sight of Mao’s troops.
By 1949, Chiang had reached Formosa with a small number of
troops. He is now president of Nationalist China, population 2
million natives of the mainland and 12 million natives of Formosa.
Mao, after his victory, has had the problem of communizing
. China. Thousands of Russian experts on persuasion and in­
doctrination have come in to help.
According to General Wedemyer’s Report: To save China from
a communist take over would have required an effort equal to that
made m the Second World War.
What we are doing to China's weaker neighbor, Indo China, we
would not think of allowing China to do to our weaker neighbors,
Canada and Mexico.

�FB Opposes
Unicameral
Legislature
The Barry County Farm
Bureau is against a unicameral
Legislature for Michigan.
Members adopted a resolution
at their annual meeting against a
proposed change in the two-house
Legislature.
Representatives from the
many Barry County community
groups, at the banquet held at the
' First Methodist Church, went on
record urging the Barry Road
Commission to paint side, center
and no passing lines on all county
hard surfaced roads whenever
appropriate, and place signs on
gravel roads to improved safety.
“We further recommend that a
greater attempt be made to in­
sure clear vision on blind cor­
ners.
’
In another county recom­
mendation, members suggested
Farm Bureau Directors name a
committee to work with the
Extension leaders to develop a
program of educational tours.
This should include livestock and
other farm commodities with the
idea of urban participation.
Deciding "it pays to ad­
vertise,” the members recom­
mended that highways, parks,
and other areas be posted
pointing out maximum fines for
littering. Thev also want con­
tainers to be placed at popular
spots for recycling glass bottles.
While supporting the food
stamp program, members said
“We believe there should be a
complete investigation of the
present
procedures
for
distributing food stamps, and the
the procedures be revised so that
equitable rules can be-enforced.”
“We further believe than any
person who refuses to work when
offered employment should not
be eligible for food stamps or
surplus food commodities.’’
Barry members suggested that
a committee be named from
every county in Michigan to
study the regulations, and then to
meet with lawmakers to work out
legislation to correct any misuse.
Another resolution commended
everyone working with the drug
problem,
and
opposed
legalization of marijuana,
suggesting
that
more
rehabilitation centers and
programs be made available to
users of narcotics.
With 180,000 small woodlot
owners in the State, members
recommended that the market
development
division
of
Michigan Farm Bureau make a
study of the feasibility of a
forestry program.
On a national level, the
members recommended the
continued use of chemicals to
maintain “the high standard of
living which we now enjoy in the
U.S. and emphasize the use of
other methods of insect and
disease control.” They recom­
mended the continuation of the
Pesticide Research Center and
the Center for Environmental
Quality on the Michigan State
University campus.
Elected directors of the county
organization were Marvin Smith,
Tom Guthrie Jr. and Merle
Hammond,,former directors and
Larry Haywood.

THE HASTINGS BANNER

November 29. 1971

�EDITORIAL
------------------------------ by R. M. C.----------------------------------A salute to the hardy corps of marchers who walked from here to
Middleville despite the rain and cold to help raise funds needed to
establish a Drop-In Center in Hastings. Rev. Michael Anton states
that at least $4,700 wqj raised and this might easily have been
doubled if the elements had co-operated.
If the march accomplished nothing else, it indicated that there
are people here who care and are concerned with problems involving
young people. The concern, we believe, has always been present. The
seeming indifference stems from the fact that no one knew exactly
what to do.
As a matter of fact, raising the money and establishing
headquarters solves nothing. Many a youth center launched with
hopeful enthusiasm has fallen by the wayside for lack sustained in­
terest and support.
Unless a center is properly organized and supervised, it can
create far more problems than it solves. The Rev. Anton's plan reads
well and if supported by enough of the right kind of local workers
willing to donate time to the project and if the right sort of supervisors-preferably a man and wife team-can be found at a price that
can be supported by a realistic budget, the project could very well
succeed and could fill a recognized and valuable local need-a place
for young people to assemble and socialize other than street comers.
But, as mentioned above, such a headquarters must have active
support of local volunteers, interested and knowledgeable in matters
pertaining to youth and who are willing to devote their time and
ability to the project. This type of support is the key factor-more
important even than a headquarters building and donations of
money. In fact' if this type of support is not forthcoming on a
sustained basis, it is safe to predict that the Drop-In Center will not
survive for long.
Many people here have forgotten that a number of years ago, the
Old White Building (as it was then called) was taken over and
transformed into a center for young people. Rooms were altered and
decorated by volunteer help. Much equipment was donated. For all
practical purposes, it appeared to be a colorful headquarters that
would attract youth looking for someplace to go and something to do.
As a matter of fact, however, interest lagged rapidly. There
never was a sufficient amount-of volunteer help. In a matter of
months, as we recall, the club was closed for lack of patronage.
All this may help explain why some residents here question
whether or not a Drop-In Center has any better chance of success
than did the club in the Old White Building.
—
The Rev. Anton is aware of the difficultie^mvolved. He is deeply
concerned with problems involving youth 'and has a real un­
derstanding of them. But, he cannot do it all plone. If he can get
enough volunteer workers to go along with-ihim week.after week and
month after month, he could probably make the project a real suc­
cess.
Much more will be needed, however, than money and initial
enthusiasm. After the cheers have died down, so to speak, the real
work begins.

young men come in many
different heights. You know
when you think about it, that
makes sense. When a girl is

needs a striking wardrobe of
various fashion footwear. The
modern young lady should
include in her treasured
collection a variety of colors,
heel heights, leathers and
styles in boudoir shoes,
casuals, dress and play shoes.
Why if a young lady is really
interested in her genuine
' fashion base...shoes...she'll
examine her closet today,
make a list and suddenly (or
gradually) add to it for the
complete fashion picture.
..Add to yours now by
choosing from our beautiful
new styles.

This 128-page Treasure of Famous Christmas stories, poems and
songs will indeed be treasured in your home for years to. come.
This colorful book contains such famous works as-Dihkens' MR.
PICKWICK’S CHRISTMAS and . A CHRISTMAS CAROL, Long­
fellow’s THE THREE KINGS, THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST.

FK Play Review

‘Arsenic And Old
Lace’ Is Delightful
By Duane Thatcher

TK’s all school play for 1971
seemed
to
have
almost
everything going for it. The
audience of about 300 attending
the opening night performance
was obviously impressed by the
technical improvements offered
in the new auditorium. The set,
designed and constructed by
Bruce and Lucille McIntyre, yas
authentic, from the newly pur­
chased set materials to the
stairway and windowseat built by.
Mr. McIntyre.
Phillip Jahnke, TK’s new
dramatic coach, used lighting
impressive in its simplicity and
precise timing to create subtle
evening effects that proved an
effective vehicle for this story of
macabre humor.
“Arsenic apd Old Lace” has
been around a long time, but its
appeal has worn well. It's a story
of two batty old ladies whose
favorite charity is helping lonely
old men find peace and happiness
by ending their life with “one last
glass of elderberry wine”. The
roles of Aunt Abby and Aunt
Martha, nlayed by Jackie
Maichele and Lori Tooker, were
excellently portrayed. Miss
Tooker’s performance was a bit
more natural and more con­
vincing than Miss Maichele’s, but
both were delightful in their
murderous innocence. They
carried the bulk of the-dialogue
with ease and retained their
characterizations to the final
curtain. Tom Page, in the leading
role of Mortimer, the. serious

nephew, was extremely strong.
While sometimes "overplaying”
■the emotional, scenes, his
characterization was always
secure, his actions natural, and
his overall performance ex­
cellent. Mr. Page kept alive
dialogue that could have become
deadly, and kept the pace of the
play lively.
It might be hard to decide who
the real “stars” were. While the
aunts and Mortimer were ex­
cellent, so were many supporting
actors. Tom Crawford, as the
nutty Dr. (Herman) Einstein,
was-a scene stealer from his first
entrance to his final exit ac­
companied by thunderous
audience applause. His make-up,
characterization, and German
dialect all helpedkto create a most
believable “wierdo”.
The strongest characterization
in the play was created by Kim
Appel in the role of nephew
Teddy, who believes himself to be
President Teddy Roosevelt. His
“Bully”
and
“Charge”,
superimposed on a childish in­
nocence, created the most en­
joyable aspect of the entire
production. Another excellent
portrayal was offered by Tom
Lyons who created two separate
characters, the better of which
was the elderly Mt. Gibbs in a
very short but undoubtedly, the
funniest sequence in the play.
Jonathon Brewster, the black
sheep nephew, was protrayed by
Randy Kloko who displayed
excellent facial flexibility in
creating a shifty-eyed, greasy

portrayal was somewhat stiff,
but created credible warmth and
lended loveliness to an otherwise
group of rather grotesque in­
dividuals.
The roles of the policemen
were handled by Jon Lytle,
Chuck Huss, Tom Lyons, and
Kelly Hartman, the most con­
vincing being Hartman as the
gruff lieutenant.
“Arsenic and Old Lace” was a
pleasant way to officially open
our new auditorium. It certainly
showed how much more we can
expect in facilities such as this,
compared to the totally
inadequate girls gym at the old
high school. I hope your didn’t
miss it. There are so few op­
portunities to see something so
worthwhile in Middleville—and
this was truly excellent.

Freedom is more than what
people who are bom free ever
dream it is. Freedom is being
free to write, think, and do what
you want. Freedom is being truly
happy. Being free allows a
person to pursue his own inlerests and not those which he is
(old to follow. Freedom is feeling
satisfied with the work that you
do.
Freedom is also having the
power to change your govern­
ment leaders without being
persecuted. Freedom is being
free from racial prejudices..but
is everyone in the United States
till what we are supposed to be? I
think not.
Ever since 1620 when the first
shipment of black slaves arrived.

this country has not been truly
free. I wish that white persons in
the United States would
remember that they were the
ones that brought the black
people here in the first place
against their will, tojjo the work
that white people al that lime
were loo lazy to do themselves.
Sure, many owned huge plan­
tations in some places, but if they
couldn't handle lhe work
themselves they shouldn't have
owned them. They bit off more
than they could chew. I wonder if
they really knew what a big
mistake they were making, not
giving lhe blacks lhe same rights
as they themselves had.
These are a few reasons why I
think that this country is not yet
truly free, and never will really
be until all men are truly free.

�Report Indicates Growth For Delton School
By Phil Sledge

These first grade students in Mrs. Norton’s class are among those
children being observed by TK high school students in the Child
Development class.
“

Class. Studies Child Behavior
The girls in Miss Weaver’s
second hour Child Development
class at Thornapple Kellogg are
participating in an activity where
each girl goes to a different class
at West Elementary School and
observes the children. The
grades involved are Kin­
dergarten, first, second, third
and fourth grades. The pre­
school, which is instructed by
Mrs. Sanford and mothers of the
children, is also included in the
project.
Every Tuesday and Wed­
nesday the girls leave school at
9:30 and help with the children
until 10:20.
The girls are experiencing the
actual emotions and actions of
the children they are observing,
to help them to understand their
behavior.
At pre-school the girls helping
are Laura Myers, Deb Richter,
Becky Vollink and Claire Fox.
Joyce StrJt ton and Lorraine

The Thornapple Kellogg fall

as always, as the coaches had
their chance to tell the funny
inside happenings of the fall
season.
The highlight of the awards,
Bob Middleton received the Most
Valuable Player honor. The Most
Improved Player designation
went to Bernie Nagel. Bob
Middleton and Bob Kuhtic were
voted by the league as first-string
fullback defensive halfback,
respectively.
The MVP award in golf went to
’ Mark Lytel, who also holds the
individual school record with a
36. The golf team also broke the
school record for total score with
a 163.
Coaches Bob White and Jerry
Page closed lhe awards session
with the announcement of next

son works with Mrs. Tobias.

CHOSES DAR GIRL

The old-fashion adages like
“Still waters run deep,” “She
seems quiet, but do we know
her?” and “Quiet in appearance
with motives unknown” would fit
TK’s pAR girl for 1971-1972.
In a close race among the three
senior class nominees, Ruth
VanderSchuur, Cay Velderman,
and Laurie Wingeier, Laurie was
declared the winner by a vote of
the faculty and administration.
Laurie is the daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Anton Wingeier and is
the oldest surviving child in a
family of five children.
Laurie has always attended
TK. Besides-being an outstanding
student, she has been active in
Latin Club, FTA, the musical as a
sophomore and the pit band for
the musical as a junior. In Band
she was chosen for summer
scholarships to Western and
Ferris. She was a group leader in
the magazine and card sales and
worked on planning the prom.
Laurie may attend Hope
College. She plans to major in
mathematics.
The criteria for being chosen as
a DAR girl are Patriotism,
Service,
Leadership,
and
Dependability.

Delton a Class A school? To
many this may sound about as
close as.Christmas coming on the
Fourth of July. However, the
Student Growth Committe for
Delton Kellogg Schools for the
years 1970 to 1980 have a totally
different view of the situation.
According to the Student
Growth Committee's report to
the Delton Kellogg School Board,
the possibilities of a Class A
school may not be such a fantasy.
The report states that there has
been a consistant number of
homes and mobile homes being
erected over the past five years.
Also, there are indications that
two or more major housing plots
are in the process of being
developed in our school district.
In a report on the growth of
Barry County from the United
States Census Bureau figures,
the county rated as one of the
fastest growth ratios of any
southwest Michigan county
during the 1969-1970 decade.
Student growth during the past
decade is revealed in the figures
below:
1966- 67... 1,762
1960- 61...1,346
1961- 62... 1,381
1967- 68... 1,986
1962- 63... 1,438
1968- 69...2,128

Rock Concert
Intices Hastings
Teens
By Kathy Brown

A rock concert drew many
teenagers from Hastings to
Grand Rapids, Wednesday,
November 24, to catch the
vibrations of “Alice Cooper”, the
main rock group attraction, and
‘‘The Guardian Angel”, the
second group playing at the
Grand Valley Armory.
The “Alice Cooper” group
played many songs from their
new album, while throwing
posters and money into the
crowd. At the end of their per­
formance, at the insistence of the
audience, they came back for an
encore.
The concert began at 8:00p.m.,
but many students arrived at the
Armory at 6:00 or 6:30 for better
seats. Several late arrivals were
refused entry.
The concensus of the youth who
attended the concert was that
they enjoyed the performance
and the sense\)f togetherness of
the audience, all in their teens or
early 20’s.

Including the annexations of
the Burroughs, Bristol and Fine
Lake Schools, this makes up a
growth of 70 per cent. However,
without these annexations the
growth still came to 56 per cent
over the ten year period.
The StudentGrowthCommittee
also came up with a list of cir­
cumstances that would have a
Eositive or negative effect
eyond normal growth. This list
includes:
The expansion of M-43 to a four
lane highway.
Industry settling in the Delton
area.
Increased tourist attractions.
Incorporation of Delton into a
town or village.
Establishment of a mobile
home park.
Lake lots improvement.
Creation of a small aircraft
airport.
Low cost government housing.
Although many of the above­
mentioned projects may seem

unlikely or impossible to many,
the studies of this growth com­
mittee show they are highly
possible.
Finally, the past student
census figures were studied and
the following determinations
were made:
Normal growth will continue in
the future as in the past. At this
time the average annual gain is
5.2 per cent.
Circumstances as mentioned
could have a continuing
traumatic effect on normal
growth.
After looking over these facts,
it does look as if Delton may
indeed some day be a Class A
school district. Thus, if you some
day return to your alma mater
and find the Panthers playing the
likes of Hastings or Kalamazoo
Central, you’ll know the great
population explosion has hit
Delton, springing it into the
higher ranks.

THE HASTINGS BANNER

ovember 29, 1971

'

Inflation followed the American occupation of South Vietnam,
and temporary unemployment is following the reduction of U. S.
troops.
Before the Americans came, South Vietnam was exporting one
million tons of rice each year. During the American occupation,
rice was imported. The production of rice is now being resumed.
The economic position of the U. S. in its relations with the
Saigon government has been compared to that of a cow being
milked, with the cow furnishing the feed.
Saigon troops, with U. S. air support, attempted to occupy a.
strategic position on the Ho-chi-min trail in Laos. This attempt
ended in a disorderly retreat. Washington explained that this
outcome was due to mismanagement and to a “vicious’* attack by
the Hanoi troops.
Cambodia wanted to be neutral and keep out of the war. The
Hanoi troops made it a terminal for the Ho-chi-min trail and a store
house for war supplies and a sanctuary to escape from the
Americans. The discovery and destruction of these war supplies
must have been a crippling blow to Hanoi.
When the Americans invaded South Vietnam, many of the
inhabitants fled into Cambodia and when Cambodia was invaded,
they fled back into Vietnam.
Anti American sentiment is growing in Saigon and other cities.
Military personnel and other Americans have been attacked. There
have been explosions and U. S. vehicles have been burned.
People in this country are glad to see the number of our
soldiers in Vietnam reduced but it worries the commanders there.
They would not want to depend on the Saigon troops for protection.
Every departure of troops for home lowers the morale and ef­
fectiveness of those who remain.
'
•
J
Liberals who urge a complete e^pape from Indo China omit to mention that such a course would result in a communist take-over
of all Vietnam. They content themselves with saying, “We have
done enough for the “people” of South Vietnam. We have created
an army of a million men for then;."
We have done enough to them. We have kept them in war for 17
years and according to the announced policy of the Nixon Ad­
ministration will keep them in war indefinitely by giving the Saigon
government whatever help it needs to prevent a communist
takeover.
Clark Clifford, Secretary of Defense, in the closing months of
the Johnson Administration, persuaded President Johnson to
discontinue air attacks on North Vietnam while trying to get Hanoi
to send delegates to the Paris “Peace” Conference. Hanoi finally
agreed to talk. That would delay the destruction of their country
and provide a forum in which to denounce the U.S.
So far, these talks have come to nothing. Hanoi has said many
times that it will not agree to anything until there is a complete and
unconditional withdrawal of all American troops and weapons.
Washington does not now expect the Pans “Peace” talks to be
successful.

XNEXNkNTTODO/WORE

At year-end 1971, assets of the savings and loan business
nationwide passed the $200 billion mark. Only eight years
ago, in 1963, we proudly noted reaching $100 billion. It's a
Great American Success Story, the S &amp; L story. And a stirring
one, because a partnership between the American people
and the S &amp; L business brought it £bout.
'Consider the way Americans save. One of the two purposes
of a savings and loan association is to encourage people to
save. The result last year-in spite of a rising cost of livingwas NEW savings to the tune of $76 billion deposited, in S &amp; L's
across the country. A new "boom" record.
Another new high was set in the amount of earnings paid to
savers. Savings and loan associations paid out an unprece­
dented total of $8.5 billion in interest-earnings in 1971. That's
additional income which Americans had available to spend
on a-lhousand-and-one things, like new cars, travel, higher
education for their children, comfortable retirements.

Savings and loan associations tower over all other lenders in
the amount of credit extended to home buyers. At year-end
$174.5 billion of mortgage credit was held by associations.
In the financing of one- to four-family homes, S &amp; L's are the
dominant source of credit accounting for over 50% of the
nation's total. In fact, over 85% of savings and loan resources
are advanced to home buyers. No other type of financial insti­
tution comes close to allocating this proportion of its total
resources to home financing.

This partnership of American families with S &amp; L s has made
America a nation of home owners.

Consider the housing industry, a basic industry in our econ­
omy. In 1971, the housing industry has Jed the natioifout of.
the economic doldrums.

In the process, it stimulates business, provides jobs and
helps build a strong America. For every billion dollars
pumped into the housing industry last year, probably four bil­
lion dollars of new activity was created. From checks to home
builders and Realtors ... to wages-of construction workers
and suppliers... to furniture, carpet and appliance sales, and
department store receipts.
Ahd the future? The future is always a new challenge. To our
associations in_____ Hastings________ our challenge is to
find new ways and better ways to serve our corner of America ;
—this community.

Ken Reahm, chairman of the
Barry County TB Association
committee, is urging area
residents to buy and use the Blue
TB seals distributed by the
Calhoun County TB Association.
Chairman Reahm said gifts to
the local group will provide the
Free Chest X-ray Unit every year
'in Hastings, "no smoking”
programs will start in Barry
schools in January and other
services will be provided here by
the Calhoun group.
Calhoun officials will guide the
program, but all funds given in
Barry will be used here.
Blanche Sylvester, director,
said that all Barry residents may
obtain free chest X-rays any time
at the Calhoun office, 142 W. Van
Buren, Battle Creek, between 4
and 5 p.m., or by appointment.
Last July the Calhoun
association left the State and
National groups because they
wanted to phase out all direct
services.
A research fund is being
planned.

ATHLETE

In this age of permissiveness and affluence, it takes a special
type of young person to work and sacrifice to achieve goals such as
Hastings High athletes accomplished during the past season, Varsity
football Coach Jerry Eckman told the 450 parents and other guests at
the annual SaxonrAthletic Boosters Fall sports banquet held Tuesday,
Nov. 23. in the HHS cafeteria.
Coach Eckman, in a much more expansive mood after his team
set a 5-3-1 record this past season compared to his dismal first year
(1970) at the Blue 4 Gold grid helm, pointed out how much easier it is
for individuals to forego the demands of athletics, or other extra
curricular activities, and to while away their time and not caring
uliat lime it is.
“In this day and age, almost
everything goes," Coach Eck­
man said. It is much easier to
float along, with the stream of
indifference than to work against
the current.
Coach Eckman pointed out how
many of the Saxon gridders lifted
weights during the Winter, and
turned out in the Summer to run
and get in shape.
"The boys earned and
sacrificed to become a fine
football team,” he added.
Smaller than any of their op­
ponents, the Saxons had to go all
out to take second place honors in
West Central offense on defense­
losing out to Grand Ledge, which
won its third straight league
crown, by a one-point, 7-6 score.
Coach Eckman said in his 12
years of coaching, the 1971
Saxons were as fine a crew as he
had ever had.
Warren Williams, who was no
slouch himself way back when,
emceed the banquet and
recognized Doug Bradford, Bill
Jerow and Fran Goggins for

spearheading the Boosters Club
in putting on the event. Warren
urged parents of HHS students­
and others-to join the group
which has been providing
scholarships for athletes (some
of the largest in dollar amounts),
paying for filming of the football
games,, and doing other things
such as helping to finance the
dugouts at the baseball field.
Athletic Director Jock^Clarey
stood in for cheerleader Coach
Pat Murphy, who was on the road
with the girls basketball team,
and introduced the varsity
cheerleaders: Co-Captains Chris
Bessmer and Lynne Wallin,
seniors; Lynn Kennedy, PhyiMcLaughlin and Carol Quick,
juniors, and Liz Draper, Tma
Mead and Tina PettengilL
sophomores. JV yell leaders
introduced were Tami Allerding,
Maureen Kinek, Sue Lydy, Susan
Haller, Stephaine Hawkins and
Rhonda Shroyer, sophomores,
and Julie Allen, Angele Cooper,
Becky’ Robbe, Jan Sage, Sue
Scheck and Carrie Sorby.

Outdoor Trail-Bobby Conley.
28, of Kalamazoo, found it
especially expensive to transport
a loaded gun in the local game
area. District Judge Joseph
Bauer on Nov. 22 assessed him a
$35 fine plus $39 court costs.
Kenneth H. Dark, also of
Kalamazoo, paid $20 plus $24 for
a similar violation. Failing to tag
deer immediately after the kill
cost Richard E. Guyott of
Caledonia, Jerome J. Miller, 23,
Hastings, and Carl J. Griffith, 29,
Kalamazoo, $10 plus $14 in court
costs. Paying the same penalty
for having uncased guns in cars
were Anthony Giaimo Jr. of
Grand Rapids, Milford J. Gordon
of Kalamazoo and Charles L.'
Perry Jr. of Hartford. . . .
Hunters returning from the
north report seeing few deer, and
few' signs of white tails. Game
experts say the drop in the deer
herd is due to lack of deer food,
and improving the herd requires
range management, making
cuttings and openings. With the
forests growing, the foot) just
isn’t within reach. State game
men hope to increase the size of
Michigan’s deer herd from its
present 400,000 to 1,000,000 by
1980. The total requires an
enormous amount of ‘‘deerland
jarmiim” and man-sized support
from the public DNR people say
“We do have, lhe know-how, we
are 8clUng
g0315- and mast
important, public support in the
-form of —
new funds is now at hand.
The time is here to reverse the
downward trend in Michigan’s
deer herd. We intend to do it!"
The DNR has submitted a plan
to the Legislature to increase the
annual hunter harvest of
pheasants by 100,000 birds in
1974. The plan calls for hatching
and rearing facilities capable of
producing 200,000 pheasants a
year. They would be released on

Parchment last season. Bangor
has these back: All-Stater Walt
Cloud, 6-8; Mike Dinkins, 6-3;
Carl Hinton, 6-1; Louie Johnson,

Antioxidants have already been
used to increase the life span of
mice.
One of the scientists at the
conference, which was sponsored
by the Oak Ridge National
Laboratory, said preliminary
evidence suggested that longlived persons had lower body
temperatGreS than those who are
short-lived. If more extensive
studies bear this out, said Dr.
Bernard L. Struhler of the
University
of
Southern
California, it should be possible
to devise methods to adjust the
body to optimal temperatures.
"We know that most people die
of infection rather then senility or
old age," reported Dr. Takashi
Makinodan, who has conducted
experiments at Oak Ridge that
have lengthened the lives of older
mice by injecting, them with
spleen cells waken from younger
mice.
Another researcher. Dr. D.
Carleton Gajdusek, reported his
research among primitive people
showed many viruses lay dormat
in the bodies of most people. "So
long as they are latent they are of
no demonstrable significance to
disease." he said. “But. they can
be activated by numerous
stresses."

council back in 1955 to “put an
end to abuses of out-of-town
solicitors and canvassers" andwas instigated at that time
following numerous complaints
of a crew of solicitors
representing an out-of-town
furnace company. It came too on
the heels of a “fast deal" when
sotne of the older residents had
been fleeced out of hundreds of
dollars by fly by night paint and
roofing companies who had
falsely represented their wares.
The Green River ordinance,

solicitating, gets its name from
an ordinance drawn up in Green
River, Wyoming, back in 1931
which made it unlawful for
solicitors, peddlers, hawkers,
itinerant merchants and tran­

not having been requested or
invited by owner of occupant of
said private residences, to solicit
drders for the sale of goods,
wares and merchandise, or for
the purpose of disposing or
peddling or hawking their wares.
These actions were declared to
be a nuisance and punishable as
such nuisance as a misdemeanor.
Back in 1955 the Nashville
village council had for several
months been working to protect
local citizens, and approval of the
Green River ordinance came as a

passing inspection by a threemember committee. But this
often failed because too many
persons failed to ask for such
identification.
There was also a penalty at­
tached to the ordinance which
“may include a fine up to $100 or
30 days imprisonment, or both.”
Down thru the 16 years since
the ordinance was adopted the
residents of this little community
have been comparatively free
from door-to-door salesmen, and
this is the way they like it.
From 1935 to 1939 the Green
River ordinance, or one quite
similar, was adopted by over 400
cities and villages across the
nation. True, there have been
instances when such ordinances
have been challenged by com­
panies who feel they have been
discriminated against, and they
have won out in some court
rulings.
But here in Nashville the
housewives like not being
bothered by the frequent ringing
of the doorbell by the uninvited
house-to-house peddler who pays
no rent, owns no property here,
or in any way contributes to the
revenue of this community.

A SURPRISE
by Ellen Hartwell
On a hot summer night.
When it SUM was quite light.
Mamma Coon started out.
With her four small mites.
We were lust going to sleep.
When I heard a great thump.
I went to the porch, and lookir
Expected someone to lump.
Away Mama Coon scampered.
To a near by free.
And chuckled away,
At her four small mite)
By that lime, they had.
Someone to play with.

Bui cannot see.
it whispers in the air.
And Its on every breeie.
Some times l hear tool steps.
Or a light knock upon the door.
And then a creak in the floor.

And there up on the Heps,

But this I know, my ears play tricks.
Now I know whats wrong.
T'is the wind so strong
The branches sway to and fro.
And little birdies have no place to go.
My ears, I thought played tricks on me.

the downtown for the first time­
will have a parking mall for the
convenience of everyone.
The City Council Monday, Nov.
22 approved the Area Chamber of
Commerce’s plan to create a
temporary and experimental
parking mall on State Street
between Michigan and Church
Street from Dec. 6 to Dec. 31.
Parking will be free, and
motorists will park at a 90 degree
angle. There will still be some
slow traffic through the twoblock area, but parking at a right
angle is expected to be easy.
Robert Johnson, manager of
the Chamber of Commerce,
presented the plan to the coun­
cilmen, pointing out that the
parking mall would only be
temporary, and that it could
prove to officials and merchants
the merit of such a move.
There is little cost involved in
creating the parking mall,
although the City expects to lose
about $400 in parking meter
revenue.
Barricades and signs will be
erected to inform everyone of the
procedure.
Downtown merchants for a
long time have indicated a desire
for change, but no definite action
has been taken. Chamber of
Commerce President Wayne
Pierce told the Council that all
the retailers he had talked to
were in favor of a change.
The present parallel parking
provides stalls for 53 cars in the
two blocks. Parking at a 45
degree angle in the two blocks
would increase that to 75 or 80.
Ninty degree parking was
suggested by Director of Public
Services Michael Klovanich, who
said it has worked in other cities,
and many more cars could be
accomodated.
The motion to approve the

Broadway. A new four-way stop
will be installed at State and
Jefferson, especially for the
convenience of pedestrians.

�Car Safety Devices for Kids Inadequate
Although automobile child
seating and restraint devices
must now meet a new federal
safety standard, most of them
are still dangerously inadequate,
according to a University of
Michigan scientist.
"I’ve tested** automobile child
seats that passed the new federal
standard with flying colors, and
yet in the equivalent of a 30-mileper-hour collision, these same
seating devices allow the child’s
head to swing forward until it
smashes against the vehicle
floor, says Dr. Verne L. Roberts
of the U-M Highway Safety
Research Institute (HSRI).
He states flatly that the
government safety standard is an
inadequate measure of a child’s
seat's effectiveness.
“The standard consists of a

simple static test,” he explains.
"A child seat is subjected to 1,000
lbs. of force and if it moves less
than a foot, it is free to be sold.”
Roberts argues that a dynamic
test actually simulating a crash
is necessary to determine a
seat's safety value.
"A dynamic test will reveal all
the shortcomings of these
devices,” he says, pointing out
that the static test fails to show
how a seat holds up in a side­
impact collision.
Roberts is especially critical of
the Federal test because he and
two other U-M researchers, D. H.
Robbins and A. W. Henke, have
done award-winning research
that clearly illustrates the im­
portance of a dynamic test.
Using an impact sled propelled
on a track and a carefully built
test dummy, the U-M group

Winterizing Special

subjected 37 child seals to
laboratory “accidents” at speeds
of 20 and 30 m.p.h. They
discovered that only a few of the
devices were “reasonably
protective” and nearly all child
seats tested were essentially
useless in a side collision. Many
had no lateral restraints what­
soever. lelting the dummy swing
sideways until it hit the vehicle’s
side structures.
The HSRI child seat research,
based primarily on the results of
dynamic tests, was finished last
The following
FaU. “
------- April,
------ the

government adopted the static
test.
“Frankly, I’m frustrated with
the way events have gone,”
Roberts says. “We strongly
recommended that a dynamic
test be the standard, but I’m
afraid the objections of the
manufacturers played a major
jole in the establishment, of a
• static test.,r
However, Roberts is currently
engaged in a project that may yet
require child seats to pass a
dynamic test before they reach
tlie consumer. Working under a
grant from the National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration of
the Department of Tran­
sportation, he will design, build

the collection we have of many John Deere
Farm and Construction Toys.

and test improved child restraint
systems. In addition, he will

requirements and recommend a
proper test procedure to evaluate
child seals.
Roberts says the research
project will not “put the
government in the child seating
business.” Rather, a goal is to,
show manufacturers that im-’
proved child seats are possible.
"The improved seat will cost
more than the present collection
of polished steel tubes with some
plastic and straps thrown in,”
says Roberts who heads the
HSRI’s Biosciences Division.

"Is sot the LORD your GOD with you?

And has he not given you peace on every side?"

Guest Editorial
YOUR FRIENDSpiE ADVENTISTS
By Pastor Labianca
A part of our name, “Adventist”, signifies a coming event. Some
of opr friends refer to us as “Advents”, but this is not quite accurate,
as an advent is something that is coming and we are already here.
We are here because we believe that the second advent of our
Lord Jesus Christ is near, even at the very gates. (St. Matthew 24).
His promise to return, the manner of his return and why he will
return is ail revealed in Holy Scripture. Please see St. John 14, Acts 1:
11 and Revelation 1:7.
To be sure that everyone receives his promised reward
(Revelation 22:12) there must be an investigation (judgement)
before he comes. This investigation, Seventh-day Adventists believe,
is in progress now; and when it is finished, he will come. Please see
Daniel 7:9-10 and Daniel 2: 31-45.
We find a last warning message in Revelation 14:7, which reads,
“Fear God and give glory to him, for the hour of his judgement has
come; and worship him who made heaven an earth, the sea and the
fountains of water”.
Seventh-day Adventists believe that it is the Christian duty of
each and every one of us to do all we are able to do, to help our friends
prepare for this great eVent.J’God loves us so much that he gave his
only son that whoever believes in him should not perish but have
everlasting life” (St. John 3:16), and we wish to radiate that love to
the entire world, if possible.
Dear friends, there is still time; Come to Christ ; Come just as you
are and he will receive you, grant you forgiveness of your sins and
give you power to live a life that is acceptable to him. Please see St.
John 6:37. Then you will be ready for that great day when he returns
in the clouds of heaven.

About the year 1875 a small group of Seventh Day Adventists
among whom were Mrs. Sarah Friend, Mrs. Arista Fleming and Mrs.
Wilhelmina Shriber, began meeting for worship in the school house at
Carlton Center. They carried on this way for a number of years and

Boysville of Michigan, near
Clinton. Founded in 1948 by the
late Cardinal Mooney and the
Knights of Columbus, Boysville
today offers 12 to 15 year old boys
with delinquency problems an
opportunity to solve these
problems through a group
counciling program, a fine junior

high school, and a variety of
activities among which is the
Drum and Bugle Corps.
Each boy in the corps belongs
to one of three treatment groups.
A treatment group at Boysville
spends all of its time together.
The groups then take on their
own identy and actually become
responsible for their own
behavior, and the behavior of
each member in their group.
Under such a structure each boy
not only has help and support in
solving his own problems, but he
also helps others to solve their
problems.
Fr. John V. Dillon Knights of
Columbus Council Hastings is
sponsoring the group and will
entertain the boys with a lunch at
their council on West State Rd.
after the parade.

Jehovah's Witnesses
Feature New Book

Elmer A. Patrick, presiding minister of the local congregation
of Jehovah’s Witnesses, said that this month and in future months
people in Barry county and around the world will be able to obtain a
new book being distributed by Jehovah’s Witnesses entitled “The
Nations Shall Know That I am Jehovah—How?’’
This new book deals with the Bible book of Ezekiel and shows
that this highly prophetic book is being fulfilled in a major way in
this 20th century. The Bible writer Ezekiel lived in a time of great
trouble for the Jewish nation. In fact in just a few years after
receiving this vision from God ancient Jerusalem was violently
destroyed by the pagan world power of Babylon. Why did Jehovah
God allow such atrocities to come upon His then chosen people? In
short because they had failed to keep the laws and commandments
• they had vowed to keep. They grossly misrepresented their God
before other nations, even stooping to copy the degraded religion of
surrounding pagen nations.
Mr. Patrick said a question that often comes up in discussing
the Bible book of Ezekiel is "How does that affect me since it
happened so long ago?” True ancient Jerusalem was destroyed in
607 B C E, but since things that Ezekiel prophesied about would
happen in the time of the end then in a larger way what happened to
ancient Jerusalem would picture what would happen to those who
claim to represent God at this time. Who would this be? Well who
claims to be Spiritual Israel today? Christendom does! Yes
Christendom has much to answer for as did ancient Israel.
Ezekiel’s prophesy deals extensively with the hyprocrisy and
degenerate condition of ancient Israel religiously. This well pic­
tures the hypocritical condition of Christendom today and since ner
start in the 4th century A.D. Many pages of history are filled about
the bloody wars fought over religious issues and in the name of
Christ. Such conflicts Christ did not authorize; therefore
Christendom must pay. Ezekiel’s prophesy also discusses the
relgious leaders ana their responsibility before God for not in­
structing the people in a correct way and warning the people of the
impending destruction in 607 B C E.
What about Christendom today? Are her religious leaders
pointing the people’s attention to the hope Jesus did, namely the
Kingdom of Jehovah God in the hands of his Son Jesus Christ? Are
they encourageing their flocks to seek first that Kingdom and get
their lives in order so they will be fit subjects pf that theocratic rule
when it is put over the entire earth? Have they shown that in the
immediate future this entire wicked'syslenj of things will go
crashing into everlasting destruction at the Bible’s named war of
Armageddon? The facts speak in answer. The religious leaders of
Christendom have gone against Jesus council to be no part of the *
world and are deeply involved in the world’s military conflicts, its
commerce and politics.
,
What will happen to Christendom for her gross misreprft&amp;erpf
tation of God and Christ in the earth? Why has she been unableto
prevent or even slow down the spread of godless communism in the
earth? Why did the two greatest wars in human history start in
nations principally claiming to practice Christianity? On the world
stage wny are many churches closing and ministers leaving the
ministry? Why are more and more people world wide leaving the
churches? What role will the political nations play in destroying not
only Christendom but all the heathen religions as well in the im­
mediate future? What will then happen to the political nations?
For the answer to these and many more questions you may
have Jehovah’s Witnesses encourage you to read this new book
“The Nations Shall Know That I am Jehovah—How?” This book
was not printed in such a way as to keep you guessing about what
the future holds. In plain simple hard hitting language it, to coin a
modem expression, “tells it like it is.”
If you are a person who has wondered how this world will come
to its end and how you can have the hope of surviving, then by all
means when one of Jehovah’s Witnesses call, obtain a copy of this
new bbok and find out for yourself by using it along with your Bible.

SOCIAL SECURITY

by Bert Pylman
Q. I am 66 years old and received
social security benefits. When
should I notify the Social Security
Administration that I have gone
back to work for over $140 a
month?
A. Any beneficiary under age 72
should notify lhe social security
office as soon as he begins
working as to the amount of his
expected earnings in the year
and the first month he will earn
over $140. However, if he will not
earn more than $1680 in the year,
he need not report that he is
earning over $140 for only some
months of the year.
Q. I have a friend who wants to
file a claim for disability benefits
but he is too sick to come into the
social security office. What
should he do?
A. He should write or phone us at
the social security office ex­
plaining that he is unable to come
m to file a claim. The office will
take over and arrange to have a
social security representative
visit him, or an application may
be taken over the telephone.
Q. I recently applied for my
social security benefits and will
get my first check next month.
Are social security benefits
subject to either Federal or State
income tax?
A. No.
The Banner is publishing a
series of questions and answers
on social security subjects. If you
have a question, the Social
Security Administration will be
glad to answer it. Your social
security office, located at 60
•North Division Avenue, Grand
Rapids, is open daily Monday
through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to
4:30 p.m. Address your questions

�Snowmobiles are a great
source of enjoyment for those
who love the great outdoors in

also be a source of irritation for
the farmer arrtthome p/ner.
v Farmers ate concerned with
uamage to crops, fences,' and in
some cases livestock. Winter
wheat and new seedings of alfalfa
can be severely damaged from
the layer of ice formed by driving
snowmobiles over wet snow on
these fields. Fences have been
cut .or broken down by
snowmobilers to make it easier to
drive their machines cross­
country. Livestock can be
stampeded by the sudden ap­
pearance and noise nuisance
especially late at night.
County agricultural agents
hear a lot about these sorts of
violations, so Barry county

suggestions.

However,

personnel caution that you are to
follow designated trails only and
much state land* is off limits to
snowmobilers. For your own
protection the law keeps you off
both state and county roads.
If you will be “recreating" on
private land, obey the Horton
Trespass Law-ask the farmer for
permission before traveling
across his land. Stay off the
lawns and yards of homeowners.
Use care, courtesy, and common
sense in the operation of your
snowmobile and you will not onlj
prevent the irritation of property
owners but will help to prevent •
accidents and injury to yourself

There are many places where
you can safely operate your

Study Plans For Delton

School Growth
Architects of Daverman
Associates of Grand Rapids— _
designers of the present Delton "
H.S.
” ° **-Building
s,J* —were present•
when the public forum for
discussion of possible con­
struction within the DeltonKellogg School system was held
on Monday evening Nov. 22.
Following the open forum each
committee met individually with
the architects going from group
to group to better answer in­
dividual group needs.
Claus Beukema, educational
consultant for Daverman’s,
answered questions for the Fine
Arts and Academics committee
regarding their study. A sam­
pling follows:
Q. Would the present high
school building be suitable for
elementary and intermediate
school usage? A. The present
high school buildipg would be
sqitable for intermediate school
usage with a minumum of
modifications. It would not be
recommended for elementary
school usage. For example,
elementary grades seldom get
into science classes and it would
be wasteful to tear out the
facilities.
Q. What is the recommended
acerage for a high school, in­
cluding everything such as
parking and athletic fields? A.
Forty acers for everything. This
is a minimum figure.
Also read was a report of a
survey of teachers common to all
departments and teachers which
states that whether or not a high
or intermediate school is built the
teachers would like to see the
following incorporated into the
present facilities as a rennovation project: small in­
dependent study areas; flexible
classrooms that could be con­
verted from large group
sessions; material storage areas
within the individual classrooms
and teachers office space.
The open forum which was held
under the auspices of the public
information committee and
conducted by Donald Humphrey
was attended by about 125 people.
A series of radio programs
conducted by the public in­
formation
committee
are
planned for Dec. 1-15-29 over
WBCH from 11:15 to 11:30.
Recommendations from the
study committees as to type of
facility determined best suited to
the needs at Delton will be made
to the school board by their Dec.
13 meeting.
These study committees were

formed this Fall by request of the
seijpol board upon completion of
the Growth Study Committee
report. This report ■predicted that
following the growth pattern of
the past decade Delton could
expect a growth of 1,200 more
students—or 3400 enrollment—by
1980.
Student enrollment rose from
1,346 students in 1960 to 2,273 in
1970.

Rotarians Hear
Minister Talk
On Thanksgiving
The real measure of our
Thanksgiving probably should be
reflected in how we use our God­
given gifts, Rev. Harvey Beach,

associate minister of the First
Presbyterian Church, said in a
Thanksgiving talk given to
Hastings Rotarians at their
regular pre-holiday luncheon
meeting.
Rev. Beach entitled his address
“Random
Thoughts
on
Thanksgiving. ’ ’
'
He was introduced by Dr.
Stanley Buck, pastor of the First
United Methodist Church.
At the meeting Ken Reahm,
general chairman of the pancake
and sausage supper, reported the
club had netted $949 for its civic
projects. Reahm reported that he
received 100 percent cooperation
from members.
__ ’
President Richard Fluke an­
nounced that Darrell Aldrich was
the new attendance chairman.
On Dec. 15 the Rotarians and
Kiwanians hold a joint meeting to
hear Herbert Moyer present the
HHS Choir in a Christmas
program.

SPEED QUEEN.
Quality and Dependability Since 1908

A community-wide program to
obtain pledges for the Kidney
Foundation of
Michigan’s
Uniform Donor program was
adopted by the Hastings JayCee
Auxiliary. Connie Egleston, R1
Hastings, head- the donor
campaign which will be .con­
ducted in cooperation with the
Kidney Foundaticr of Michigan,
a United Fund Agency.
Under the Uniform Anatomical
Gift Act now enacted in Michigan
and 49 other slates, persons
desiring to leave their kidneys to
save the lives of others after their
own death may sign a new
Uniform Donor card.
According to the Kidney
Foundation's president, Dr.
William J. Oliver, the new pledge
card complies with all legal
requirements when carried on
the person and is acceptable
documentary proof of the
prospective donor’s intentions.
"Instead of many cards for a
variety of purposes”, said Dr.
Oliver, "such as eyes, tissues,
lungs, heart and kidneys, now
there is one card which can be1 a
gift of life for some man, woman,
or child.”
Prospective donors may
contact Mrs. Egleston at 945-9413
for a brochure containing the
pledge card and an explanation
of the donor program. Brochures
will also be available in most
local physicians offices and

Col. John R. Plants, director of
the Michigan Department of
State Police, last August wrote
Sheriff Merl H. Campbell a letter
praising the men in his depart­
ment for their work in helping to
solve the murder of Kathy
Woods.
The letter follows:
“Dear Sheriff Campbell:
“It is always gratifying for me
to acknowledge successful
cooperation between law en­
forcement agencies in combating
and solving crime.
“Such an instance was the
teamwork
between
your
Deputies Larry Gay and Jerry
Plank and our officers, Det.
Robert H. Golm and Det. Sgts.
Ronald Schoonmaker and Wayne
Clinton, which led to the arrest of

a subject for tbe November 25,
1970, murder of Kathleen Sue
Woods of Delton. It represented
months of diligent police work.
“While our Board of Awards
approved citations for the work
of our officers, our department
rules have no provision for
similar acknowledgement for
members of other agencies who
participate.
“There is no restriction, of
course, on my extending to your
department, and specifically
Deputies Gay and Plank, this
letter of commendation for their
efforts in the case.
“Best wishes to you and your
men for continued successes in
our mutual law enforcement
interests.’’

Brown Admits
5748
Robert Jay Brown, 31,
Hastings, pleaded guilty to
second degree murder Monday
morning, Dec. 6, in Charlotte
before Circuit Judge Richard
Robinson. Brown was charged
with the shooting death of Mrs.
Shirley (Kathleen) Woods, 22,
about 7:30 a.m. on Nov. 25, at her
Wall Lake Home. His trial was
scheduled to begin Tuesday, Dec.
7.
To Protect Society
Barry County Prosecuting
Attorney David A. Dimmers said
he made tbe decision to accept a
second degree murder plea as the
best way of keeping him (Brown)
out of society, assuredly for the
longest period of time.
The maximum penalty for
second degree murder is life
imprisonment. Judge Robinson,
who is expected to sentence
Brown in from three to five
weeks. Dimmers said, has
discretion in pronouncing the
sentence.
First degree murder, with
which Brown was originally
charged, provides for mandatory
solitary confinement for life at
hard labor, Prosecutor Dimmers
explained.
Judge Accepts Plea
Brown, accompanied by his
attorney, John Hoffman of
Allegan, made his guilty plea and
then was taken by Judge
Robinson into the judge’s
chambers, where the jurist
ascertained the facts in .the case.
After that, Judge Robinson ac­
cepted the guilty plea.
Mrs. Woods was killed as she
prepared to go to work in
Kalamazoo. After a long in­
vestigation, about 8:30 p.m. last
June 18, Brown was arrested by
State Police Detective Robert E.
Golm of the Wayland post. Brown
was the last of 35 or 40 persons
who had purchased .22 am­
munition in a local store.
Fingerprints in Home
Brown was bound over to
Circuit Court for trial last August
by District Judge Kenneth
Hansen,after an examination. In
that examination Detective Golm
said Brown’s fingerprints were
found on chips from a broken
cereamic ashtray found in the
Woods’ bedroom-near the body.
. Brown had told Golm that he had
never been in the Woods’ home.
Forty-nine jurors had been
summoned to report to the
Courthouse in Hastings Tuesday
morning for the start of the
. Brown trial, and about 20 wit­
nesses had been summoned. •

Explains Drop-In Center—The
proposed Drop-In Center for
Hastings will be a “place to go”
and will not cater to one par­
ticular group of people, the Rev.
Michael Anton is explaining to a
representative group at a special
meeting held at Hastings High
School Friday noon. Probably
teenagers from 13 to 17 will get
the most use out of the center but

all will be welcome. The center is
to be open during reasonable
hours, but will provide a “ser­
vice” all 24 hours of the day with
a “hot line telephone,” Rev.
Anton explained. Mrs. Marian
Sorby (left), school nurse,
general chairman of the Hastings
Area Substance Education and
Service Committee, explained
ramifications of the total

education program, pointing out
that there is a tremendous
number of people in school who
are using drugs and that the
educational program will em­
phasize health in all its aspects.
sSupt. of Schools Richard J.
Guenther (center) and Mrs. Ann
Hubert, information and em­
pathy* training chairman, were
among those at the special
meeting.—Banner photo.

�EDITORIAL
------------------------ by R. M. C.---------------------------The Christmas lights in the business area are attractive and in
good taste; the life size Creche on the northwest corner of the Court
House lawn is impressive and Santa’s little red shack on the northeast
corner is ready for the visiting youngsters. Over the years, the
opening of the Christmas season has -come to be identified with the
ending of Thanksgiving. This is a retail venture and it would do no
good tor communities such as Hastings not to fall in line. Our little
voice would have no effect on the overall picture. That is one of the
commercial realities of present day America. It'is wishful thinking-,
pure and simple, but how nice it would be if there could be a universal
agreement among everyone concerned, not to break out with
Christmas decorations, carols, etc., until the middle of December.
That would leave about ten days for shopping, decorating, caroling
and other special events connected with the Yuletide season.
As it is now, everything begins so early that the decorations,
Christmas music, etc. is “old stuff” by the time Christmas arrives.
One may actually become fed Up with the sight of colored lights,
decorated trees, festoons of greenery and the sound of carols long
before Christmas, itself, actually arrives.

Also, lest we forget, Christmas is a religious festival - one of the
two great events of the Christian year. That fundamental fact
remains, no matter what form our “celebration” takes. Possibly
everyone might benefit if the religious phase of Christmas could once
again be given "center stage” at this season of the year and the
opening of the season postponed until a date much nearer to the event
itself.

Whirlpool Bath-One whirlpool

Calvin Coolidge is not one of the great presidents in U. S. history.
In fact, to many a present-day liberal he is low man on the totem pole,
so to speak.
Yet, many of his quaint and pithy sayings do have an enduring
quality that raise them above the normal level. '
Take this one, for instance: “Nothing is easier than spending
public money. It does not appear to belong to anybody. The temp­
tation is overwhelming to bestow it on somebody.”
.
*
In the present socialistic and permissive era in which we live, the
temptation to bestow public money on somebody has far surpassed
the “temptation” stage. The spigot appears to be wide o_pen most of
the time, 'loo many of us still regard a Federal grant as a gift from
heaven that doesn’t cost us a thing when, as a matter of fact we,
ourselves through various and sundry taxes constitute the sole source
of supply for the Government spending binges. A Federal grant is not
a gift but merely a distribution of tax funds extracted from the
American from which the variohs agencies first get their ad­
ministrative cuts-which are considerable.

I---------------OF THE PEOPLE —’
To those of us who remember the great depression of the 1930’s,
the "recession” of the past few years has been something of an
enigma. Stock market prices have taken a series of nose dives,
followed by partial recoveries. Unemployment, although high by
standards of recent years, would have been a bonanza during the
dreary depression years when it seemed aS though the economic
cycle would never start on the upswing again. The gross national
product has steadily increased, though not at the rate maintained
during the boom years of the past decade. Savings accounts in banks
acrossthe nation are high and the same can be said for certificates of
deposit. This is a far different situation than the series of bank
failures followed by a federally ordered bank moratorium which none
of us who went through the experience will ever forget.
During the years of the present “recession,” business failures
have not been abnormally high. Although a majority of business
firms are operating at somewhat less profit than during the boom
years, many have shown steady gains in recent quarterly reports. A
few even report substantial increases in net profit.
Looking backward, it appears evident that the nation was on the
verge of a complete recovery when the disastrous General Motors
stride was called-a strike whose crippling effect was felt in in­
dustries not directly related to the automobile industry. Then, too, the
West Coast dock strike has been a damper on the economy.
Looking ahead, there is nothing basically unsound to stand in the
way of further economic growth and progress. The basic trouble of
the present, we believe,' is one of attitude rather than economics.
Americans, for some reason, have lost confidence in themselves. Full
recovery will depend in large measure on the recovery of confidence
in ourselves ana our nation. That is the imponderable factor of the
present ‘.‘recession.”

To the Editor:
The success of ‘‘Super
Saturday” is certainly gratifying
especially after hundreds of
hours were spent to put the
program together. The success of
the children’s show, the choir
concert and the parade exem­
plify what can be accomplished
through .cooperation and in­
volvement.
Even though the Chamber of
Commerce sponsored the day’s
activities, ‘’Super Saturday”
would not have been a reality
without the generous help of the
Christmas Parade Committee
and al] those who participated in
the various projects.
It’s impossible to mention all
those who helped, but special
recognition must be given to the
people who devoted several
months of their time and talents.
I want to thank the parade

together as a group. They include

Game Area was about the same
as in 1970, despite the fact that
there were fewer hunters. Officer
Willison checked about 25
animals himself, including 15
bucks. He estimated he checked
about 16 percent of the hunters—
on the 27th Jie talked to 113—and
perhaps he checked abouV'W
different hunters during the
entire season. Fewer hunters, but
violations were up, Brent said.
Barry hunters had an accidentfree season. Undoubtedly the
Conservation Coub’s gun safety
programs were a contributing
factor...Dec. 31st will be the
finale of archery deer hunting
Statewide and the ruffed grouse
season in the Lower Peninsula. It
is also the cutoff date for the
special extended season on
steelhead, brown trout, lake trout
and salmon in certain/iesignated
inland streams. Spearing for
ciscoes, whitefish, suckers and
carp also winds up in designated
waters.

Hastings is taking part in the
Grand River Watershed Coun­

systematic

monitoring program, with
Richard Nixon and Bill Ransom
of the City’s waste treatment
plant doing the work. The
sampling, testing and com­
puterized storage of water
quality was initiated by the
council in 1968, and over 100
stations are now tested on amonthly basis. This includes

A new national prep wrestling
rule places .more emphasis on
pins. A prep grappler now ’gets
six points for a fall, instead of
just four. A wrestler winning by
10 or more points gets an ad­
ditional four team points for his
big effort. A decision still gets
three points and a draw two.

Richard Stanley, son of the Bob
Stanleys, who is the second
Hastings man to spend a tour of
Navy duty in the Antarctica. The
first was the late Captain Hugh
Kelley, who was the "mayor” at
the Navy base there. Dick wrote
that the temperature has been
"going up everyday." The lowest
was a minus 114, but "today it
must be only 10 below.’’
"A 1,500 pound seal came
through the ice today. I didn’t get

was huge. I’m still waiting to see

The Know How—Participants
and winners of the Hastings
Senior Citizens Club baking
contest, held at the November 29
meeting, are pictured with their
baked goods and prizes. Front
row, from left are: Mrs. Florence

Second row, Mrs.

acting president. The baked
goods were sent to the patients at
the Medical Facility.

A luncheon, baking contest and
sing-along with the Hastings
High School chorus filled the
schedule of the Nov. 29 meeting
of the Hastings Senior Citizens
Club at the Union Hall on
Woodland.
,
Ray Wolfe led about 30 people
in song practice before the
chorus arrived. The turnout was
light, according to Mrs. Esther
Heisler,
acting president,
because of the snowy weather.
She said that usually 75 to 100
people attend the meetings.
"The chorus sang to an ap­
preciative audience,” Mrs.
Heisler said, "even though it was
small."
Mr. and Mrs. Royal Hayes will
show pictures of their trip to
Hawaii at the Dec. 27 meeting.
The Hayes’ trip resulted from
winning the WBCH-sponsored

To help celebrate the holiday
time and to let the public know
that their recreational reserve is
open, the management of Sandy
Pines has literally changed their
name to "Christmas-Pines” for
25 days prior to Christmas Day.
The main reason is that they’re
offering individuals, couples,
and-or families a free "Christ­
mas Pine Tree" when a tour is
taken of the recreational
facilities of Sandy Pines.
In addition to the free, home­
size, Christmas tree, a $1.00
contribution will be made by
Sandy Pines to the Santa Claus
Girls Fund in the name of the
person, couple or family
receiving the tree.
Sandy Pines recreational
reserve is located between 135th138th Avenues and 26th-28th
Streets, near the towns of Burnips and Dorr.

Having actively supported
legislation to make 18 the legal
age of majority in this state, the
Michigan Jaycees Saturday,
Nov. 13, opened their own ranks
to 18 year olds, lowering the
minimum age of membership
from 21 to 18 year olds.
At the quarterly directors
meeting in Cadillac,’the Jaycees
overwhelmingly supported the
age change propasal. The change
took immediate effect with the
first new member between 18 and
21 sworn in at the meeting by
Michigan Michigan Jaycee
President, Pat Sheridan.
Action Consistent
Sheridan called the move
“consistent with our Jaycee way
of life." “We seek to give young
men of action an opportunity to
improve themselves through
community leadership and in­
volvement. It is clear that the
voting men of 18 today are boll)
ready and eager to accept such a
challenge," Sheridan said.
Commenting on the new
minimum age, local Jaycee
President Ted Egleston said;
"The influx of community ser­
vices ideas from this age group
will be of great assistance to the
local Jaycee Chapter, and we
extend a hearty welcome to the
future Jaycees of this age group,
and have already voted in a new
member for our local club.”

Parents Need To ‘Get With’Drug Problem
Youth may be reflecting

The
m. results of the questionnaire
.
parents of Lakewood students
filled out during parent-teacher
conferences was published.
Question nine read- “Parents
need more understanding of the
drug situation." Ninety percent
of the parents agreed with this
statement.
“It is encouraging to believe
that Lakewood adults are
searching
for
more
un­
derstanding to the complex
situation surrounding substance
abuse," commented Daryl
Hartzler, who is responsible for
the Drug Education Program.
Last year the Lakewood .
community residents were able
to attend three Drug Worlcshops.
The purpose was to help this
community become more aware
of the drug situation.
Someone has said "A drug
program that talks only about
Drugs- is at best - a waste." It
seems those community people
who are now serving on
Lakewoods’ Drug Education, &amp;
Planning Committee agree with
this statement. The committee
does not plan to make a crash
program available to the com­
munity. "We do hope to be able to
help the community understand
all dimensions of what the drug
situations means. Only the
community can solve and change
the faces which, bring about
substance abuse. To solve any
social concern is not easy, and it
demands that all of us Jook
deeply into ourselves as mem­
bers of this community," Hart­
zler said.
The committee feels there are
three areas or goals which are
important in implementing a
community wide approach to
substance understanding.
First, involving parents.
Parents are. probably the most
important source of help or
hinderance to what happens in
the drug situation. Parents need
to learn the facts and have the
knowledge about it. They need to
know the whys of abuse and, for
some, they may have to face how
their life style may be leading
their children into the drug use
synodrone. Mrs. Jim Geiger will
be working in this area.
Secondly, the school system

’one. because a partnership between th^Amerlcan people
and the SAL business brought it about.Consider the way Americans save. One of the two purposes
of a savings and loan association is to encourage people to

save. The result last year-in spite of a rising cost of livingwas NEW savings to the tune of $76 billion deposited in S A L's
across the country. A new “boom" record.
Another new high was set in the amount of earnings paid to
savers. Savings and loan associations paid out an unprece­
dented totpl of $6.5 billion in interest-earnings in 1971. That's
additional income which Americans had available to spend
on a-thousand-and-one things, like new cars, travel, higher

Test Yule Tree
Bend its needles. Bump it on
the ground.
That’s how to find out if that
Christmas tree you're going to
buy will stay fresh through the
holidays.
“If the needles bend easily and
don’t fall when you bump the
tree, the tree is fresh,” contends
Lester E. Bell, Michigan State

goal attempts. Grand Ledge held
a 34-32 margin at intermission.
In the nip and tuck second half,
Hastings closed the gap at 52-52
after thre€T)eriods as Andy Reid,
who was closely guarded all night
along with Kessenich, finally
managed to score sinking three
buckets in six attempts. With the
big guns somewhat silenced by
the fine Comet guarding, back
court men Doug Welton and Ted
Fitzgerald came through to ruin
Coach Hugh Smyth’s • defensive
plan. Both hit a pair from the
floor in the third neriod.
Thrilling Finale
The final canto tfas a thriller.
Reid rebounded a Kessenich shot
to put the Saxons ahead at the
outset, then the Ledgers moved
on top 57-54. Reid and Fitzgerald
converted two gifts each and
Hastings led 58-57. Dave Haddad
scored for the Comets then
Kessenich converted a pair of

Fitzgerald then Kessenich sank a

Lynn VanDerSteen, who

Reid followed with his second
bucket of the period and Hastings

Comments on the War
By Mortimer C. Nichols
MORE REFLECTIONS
Since the Second World War, “Communist containment” has
been the main factor in American foreign policy. Our foreign aid
has been mostly of a military nature designed to fight off possible
communist encroachment or subversion. The democratic coun­
tries of Western Europe have not shared this anti-communist
obsession, and do not participate in our efforts. So we have gone on
our crusade alone. Some call it leadership. Leading without
followers.
Our country is blessed with great natural resources, and an
intelligent population of great ability. We can produce far beyond
our needs. .
Due to our competitive system or our handling of it, or
because of conditions beyond our control, we are not all getting the
benefits we would like.
Unemployment, poverty amid abundance, imbalance of costs
compared with income and all the kindred ills that are now
plaguing us more than usual must be mostly our own fault.
Yet we have the conceit to go ten thousand miles to a smaller,
weaker country that had never done us any harm, and tell it how to
manage its affairs. And we are enforcing our demands with war,
using all modem methods of warfare, short of nuclear explosion.
At the present so-called “stalemate”, the land jvar is mostly in
Cambodia. There are no American troops on the ground.
Americans convey Saigon troops in helicopters. American planes
patrol the area, firing upon concentrations of Hanoi troops and on
suspected places in the jungle where they might be lurking.
The number killed in these operations are put by Saigon
sources at: Americans 10 or less, Saigon troops 200, Hanoi troops
1000 per week.
American observation planes go over North Vietnam and the
Ho chi-min trail. If they are fired upon, or if anything is going on
that might aid Hanoi troops in Cambodia or South Vietnam, then
bombing planes foHow.
Our action in Indo China is doing us much damage. Because
Russia is furnishing trucks to the North Vietnamese, Ford Motor
Co. was obliged to forego the building of the largest truck factory
in the world for Russia. We, the founders of the United Nations,
created to preserve peace, are the only country engaged in a
shooting war.
.
A
’
There can be no real friendship with .Chimfor Russia until
there is peace in Vietnam.
\
'
The large sums of money used in carrying on the war in Indo
China have contributed to our unfavorable position in in­
ternational finance and to the devaluation of the dollar.
Our war in Indo China is regarded with much disfavor by
other nations. Old friendships are cooling. This was illustrated by
the large vote to expel Nationalist China from the United Nations,
which was so embarrassing to us.
According to present plans, there will be no release for the
prisoners of war. Hanoi's position is that we have no business
there, and that there are no concessions to be made on their part.
It is expected that when Hanoi is assured that we will be gone by a
certain date and won't come back, prisoners will be released as
fast as we go. Some observers look for Hanoi to demand payment
for damages.
I want to express my thanks and appreciation to Mrs. Max
(Mildred) Bauer for her cheerful endurance of my stumbling
dictation, faulty penmanship, awkward phrases and the many
insertions and deletions.
I am happy that I can-publish my thoughts without objection
by anyone and equally happy that no one is obliged to pay any
attention to them. (End)

this season. They shook off their

* Coach Ernie Strong’s Hastings
High eagers had their strong
points and weak spots in the
Tuesday, Nov. 30. inaugural, but
were able to overcome the hardpressing Redskins to salvage a
victory.
Hastings started fast pumping
in 10 out of 19 field goal attempts
in the first quarter to take a 22-11
lead, but saw that cut to 39-36 by
intermission.
In the hectic third period
Marshall closed the gap and the
teams went into the last quarter
knotted at 53-53.
Hastings quickly raced to a
four point margin, had that
halved but then held an eight­
point bulge until midway in the
fourth stanza.
Marshall chipped away at the
bulge and slashed it to two, 67-69,
with 1:15 left. Jerry Kessenich
added a free throw, Ted Fit­
zgerald two then Andy Reid
rebounded and the spread was 75­
68. Two free throws by Jim Trapp
put the Redskins within five with
19 seconds on the clock.
Kessenich was fouled in­
tentionally, sank both gifts with
seven seconds left for the final
tally, 77-70.
Kessenich and Reid led the
Saxons with 27 and 23 points,

Fitzgerald added a dozen and
Rick Rohde 10.

IDs Issued
At Lakewood
By April Miller

Some 95 percent of Lakewood's
student body received their
identification cards, Monday,
Nov. 29. 1116 cards will be used
for various activities throughout
the school year.
“A student will not be admitted
into school dances without his
card,"
Norma
Jackson,
secretary at the high school said.
Those students who missed
having their pictures taken
earlier in the year will receive
their identification cards later.
The cards measure two by
three inches and has the picture
of the student, his name and the
name of the school.
The cards came punched with
either two punches, one punch or

“What with my three kids in
the class it’s kind of an extension
of the home,” Dickinson added.
When the three Dickinsons,
Jori, Tim and Suzanne decided
that they wanted to take French,
their Dad said that they might as
well take it together.

“We don’t especially try to get
into any one group within the
class though,” Tim said.

Mr. Dickinson also seemed to
feel it was just like any other
class.
“When we are in class, I see
them more as students than as
my own children,” he said.
Homework is no special
problem for the Dickinsons.
“I try to get all of my
homework done at school” Jon
said. “I never work with my
bother or sister at home.”

“We would rather just ask Dad
to help us than to work together,”
Suzanne added.
Jon is a junior this year, Tim a
sophomore and Suzanne a fresh­
man.
“You might think we speak
French at home, but evidently we
all think that French ends at
10:35 a.m. every day,” Mr.
Dickinson said.

“It’s rather hilarious for three
Dickinsons to be in one class
when we have a substitute
teacher,” Tim said.

�Flexible Furnishings Make Moving Easier
“Potluck" is a great idea for
community suppers but. a poor
approach to home furnishings for
mobile families.
“Since the average American
family moves five times during
the husband’s working years and
once more at retirement, they
must often choose adaptable
furnishings," says Margaret
~
Boschetti,
* ■'

‘
'

I
furnishings
specialist
at
Michigan State University:
Shop Carefully
“With careful shopping, you
can find furniture and accessories to fit many different
types of homes,” she says.
Following is a buying plan for
the mobile family:
Avoid oversized pieces, Miss
Boschetti suggests. If you’ve
ever made special arrangements
for transporting a grand piano, a
wall-to-wall carpet or a supersize
mirror, you’ll think twice before
burdening yourself with bulky
possessions.
Transitional styles—that are
neither period nor way-outmodem—can be the backbone of
an exciting room. These are
sturdy, practical basics that are
attractive in combination with'
many furniture styles.
Free-Standing Storage
Modular units also offer
decorating .flexibility,
the b
specialist says. Usually available ’

as standard-sized forms, they are
designed for “stacking” (ver­
tically)
or
“bunching”
(horizontally) in any room to
serve any need.
Free-standing storage systems
are a movable answer to book
shelf and cabinet needs. They
range from budget types (metal
ceiling to floor tension poles
which hold brackets for shelves)
to deluxe models (made of fine
cabinet
-woods
or
con­
temporary—clear or colorful
plastics).
Budget conscious Americanson-the-move want storage pieces
which can be packed for ship­
ping, and used later as furniture.
Antique trunks and footlockers
are a real find at auctions and
house sales. Wicker “Hong Kong
trunks,” cedar chests, fiberboard
storage chests an$ cardboard file
cabinets are also good traveling
companions. Less-than-snappy
versions of these can be covered
with' attractive, self-stick vinyl.
Because so many Americans
lead transient lives, companies
from coast to coast offer fur­
niture rental plans. Renting is a
good idea for an especially short
stay, Misi, Boschetti believes.
Peppered with personal ac­
cessories, an apartment of rented
furniture can be handy and
friendly.

Newly designed stave now
being manufactured on our new
stave machine giving us a stave
with extreme strength and
durability. Red &amp; White colored
metal roofs now standard on all
new silos. 43 years of experience
means the best possible job for
you. We do the complete job
including the foundation. Write
or call today and get all the facts
about the silo with the heaviest
and best inside finish. We
probably put on twice as much
material on the inside for a seal
and remember this is applied
with a cement gun for better
adhesion and this is the only part
of a silo that wears out. SiloMatic and VanDale unloaders
and feeding equipment. Also

�Urges Barry
Farmers To
Store Grain
Duane Langs, NFO chairmar
of Barry County, said that feec
grain prices will drop to even
lower levels unless farmers
make use of every possibility for
putting their production in
storage.
“With prices now at less than
cost of production we must do
more than we’ve ever done
before to avjoid dumping grain on
the market and to head off fur­
ther declines,” he said.
“Farmers should make use of
all available programs, govern­
ment and otherwise, to store as
much of their corn, milo, wheat,
barley and oats as they possibly
can.”
Could Build Market
Langs said farmers are in a
position to build a market for
feed grains by working together
and keeping control of their
products until higher prices can
be negotiated to offset higher cost
of production.
Three market-building
possibilities, he said, are
available to all farmers in Barry
County:
1. Use all available on-thefarm facilities to store feed
grains and add capacity as
needed
with
government
financing arranged through local
ASCS offices.
2. Store in elevators, ASCS bin
sites, and warehouses wherever
available, obtaining warehouse
receipts as collateral for loans
from banks or the government
through local ASCS offices.
3. Block feed grains in in­
ventory with other farmers
through NFO for nationwide
bargaining and for negotiating
higher price levels.
Langs said all three makes it
possible for farmers to obtain
loans on their feed grains, either
from the government or a lending
institution, and to be in a position
to market it at a higher price
later on.
“This allows farmers to
maintain control of grain nor­
mally dumped on the market at
harvest time," Mr. Langs said.
“It doesn’t make sense for
farmers to stand by while the

Invocation—Dr. William Helrigel
gave the invocation daring the
ceremonies for the dedication of
the new Barry County jail. The
prayer:
“Almighty God, Father of us
all, whose ways.are ways of
Justice and truth, whose mercy is
everlasting,
and
whose
forgiveness is beyond our un­
derstanding, look upon us today
as we join in dedicating a
building erected for our common
good and the protection of our
homes and families from those
who fail to obey our laws.
“We ask for guidance to those
who administer justice and
protection to those whose duty it
is to enforce it. Let justice be
mingled with mercy and un­
derstanding in our dealing with
human frailty.
“May this building be an in­
strument in the creation of good
character as well as a means of
correction.
“We pray that the presence of
this building in our community
shall be a constant reminder to
those who contemplate evil that
they shall be restrained, and that
the influence for good shall
prevail. Also, that we may
rejoice, not that our jail shall be
used more and more, but less and
less.
“It is in this spirit tfiat we
dedicate this building 'for the
good of our community and for
the administering of justice.
4nHis name we pray,
AMEN”

�EDITORIAL
-------------------- ——by R

M. C.—------- -- -----------

Backers of the proposed Drop-In Center here are not viewing the
project through rose-tinted glasses. The KeV.* Michael 'Anton and his
associates in the venture appreciate the many diffieulties.that stand
between hope and accomplishment.They realize that success will not
be automatic and that there will have to be a considerable amount of
' the right kind of adult help and co-operation ifThe Center is to become
firmly established.
Probably the right sort of adult help and co-operation is more
important in getting the Center underway than a headquarters and
donations of money—although these also will be needed.
Another favorable factor for the Center is that there will be at
least a minimum set of rules firmly enforced for those who-use the
facilities and definite hours for opening and closing. There will
always be noise in a dub of this sort but the Rev. Anton appreciates
the need for keeping this under sufficient restraint not be become a
nuisance to residents nearby who also have the right to expect
quietness and relaxation in their homes without too heavy a volume of
“static” coming in from the outside.
A Drop-In Center must establish a satisfactory rdationship with
the surrounding neighborhood if it is to survive. That is a basic “fact
of life.”
The announced purpose of the Center is realistic and good—a
dub, with a definite set of ground rules where young people can drop
in during the regular hours to entertain themselves, listen to records,
cook hamburgs and hot dogs, socialize, get special counseling, if they
so desire, and have a chance also, if they so desire, to talk with the
sort of adult who remembers the many problems involved in growing
up and has retained a real sympathy and understanding for same.
The entire project, in brief, is an ideal that must be made prac­
tical if it is to become a useful factor in the community—and the
'process of turning an ideal into a practical reality will not be easy—
maybe not even possible—to achieve. But, regardless of the dif­
ficulties and uncertainties, the benefits, if it can be made a success,
are probably sufficient to justify giving the Drop-In Center a real try.

, The Shopping Mall is an innovation being tested here for the first
. time. Although the trial period is necessarily brief, there should be
time enough to get an idea as to whether or not the project will bring
advantages expected to the downtown shopping area. The pace of
motor traffic, along State Street has been considerably reduced and
, it will be safer and more convenient for shoppers to cross from one
side of the street to another. It will unify the area (or at least that is
the hope) and bring both sides of the street into a single shopping unit
where pedestrians can move easily about. Whether the present
arrangement proves popular and practical or whether further
modifications may be needed, are matters that should soon become
evident. At least, after many years of talking and discussion
: something definite is being tried. We hope that this matter will not be
dropped when this initial test run is ended.

. Various proposals are now being made for the Federal financing
of political campaigns; Regardless of the- many reasons being put
forth in support of such’ a venture, the end result would be govem■ ment control of American politics.
. Federal and state governments should enact sets of ground rules
that political parties are expected to observe. This provides a
reasonable and uniform code applicable to all groups entering the
political arena. But there the role of the government should end.
,
Experience shows that once a government begins making
‘‘grants” from public funds, the government assumes dictatorial
control of how the money is to be spent In this manner the govern­
ment, itself, could gain control of the political machinery, thus for­
ming another barrier between the people and their government—and
there are enough barriers already.
’
Federally financed political campaigns would create many new
problems and solve none of the old ones. If people ever do fall into this
trap, it means they will be relinquishing one of their last firm holds on

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE
To The Editor,
Are we or have we already lost
control of our schools? It’s
strange how Governor Milliken
sticks up for his School reform
program. More local Control?
How?
If the State collects all the
funds, disperses all the funds,
distributes all the funds, decides
what district gets more or less,
takes the hard working class’s
hard work and taxes to support
schools (which just may not want
more of modern, ideological,
evolutionary, communistic share
and share alike schools), shall we
cal! it education? Or shall we say
what education?
If the State leaves local control
intact may I laugh?
Could this be like the local
control we were left with when all
our little country schools were
“lifted” from our shoulders of
responsibility?
Fxinny! We haven’t had one
community gathering in the
Altoft District since our school
was taken from our jurisdiction!
JWe haven’t had one ball game,
one supper, one program, one
talent show, no train rides, park
trips or Capitol tours and no old
fashioned PTA’s and no Mothers
Club for us in our corner since the
school officials came to our
school, held the annual meeting
and related to us how great it
would all be—Bye and bye!
Great! Funny isn’t it? Or is it?
P.S. What happened to the
promises of a better education
for the kids? Is it really better
and are the kids really smarter?
Judge for yourself!
Sincerely,
'

�Parisioners’ Devotion Keeps Little Church Alive
In this day and age it takes
devotion to one’s faith dr religion
to keep a little country church
alive. But the parishioners of the
Assyria Gospel church, located
on M-66 about midway between
Nashville and Battle Creek are
just such a group, and numerous
improvements are being made on
both the interior and exterior of
the church in preparation of the
Centennial which will occur in
1973.
ElliK First Postmaster
From the "Record of the First
Methodist Church of Assyria
Center, Barry County, Mich,” its
pages yellowed with age and
tattered and worn, comes the
story of a new church, the birth
pangs, the birth itself and growth

of a new building, along with the
growth of the community.
"Before it was set off from
Johnstown,” according to the
history book, "a postoffice was
established with Cleveland Ellis
as postmaster. He was asked to
choose for the office a name that'
had not been given to any other
state, so he selected ‘Assyria,’
and when*, in 1844, the township
was organized, it took the name
of the postoffice.”
The Protestant Methodist
Church was organized Sdpt. 26,
187.3, by Rev. Wm. Kelly, in the
Centre school house, with Ser­
vices held every two weeks. The
first meetings were held in the
school.
.•
On the first page of.the church
record book it says “At a meeting
of citizens of Assyria, held on the
sixth day of May, 1874, the
following Articles of Association
were entered into. We, the un­
dersigned, being desirous of
forming ourselfs into a church,
have for the purpose of church
government, and management of
the temporal affairs of the said
church, have adopted the
following....” This was signed by
J.B. Norris, G.W. - Tompkins,
Francis O.W. Leonard, George
E. Bacon, Orin Robinson, Mary
O. Peiffer, Jane M. Mayo, John
Mayo, Sarah Baker, Jennie R.

Tompkins, Sammel Welever,
Thomas Tasker and R.S.
Briggs.”
Led By Rev. Stveking
Under the leadership of the
Rev. Stveking the papers were
recorded and the infant church
was off to a good start.
It was in October, 1875, the
trustees met and voted to build
the church. Dedication was held
August 20, 1878.
At one time the Assyria Circuit
included the Austin, Barryville,
Section Hill, Pennfiela and
Assyria Churches. In 1894 the
Barryville church separated
from the Assyria Circuit.
parsonage was purchased in
1896 for the sum of $600 east of the
church on Tasker road. It is*still
in use.
In July J896 a bell was pur­
chased. It weighed 300 pounds
and was hauled into place 'by a
block and tackle drawn by
horses. The following year the
buildings were insured and the
west stall of the horse sheds was
boarded up for a wood-house. At
that time the salary of the
minister was set at $300 a year.
Install Furnace
Under the leadership of the
Rev. J.E. McClure the trustees
voted unanimously to dig out a
basement under the church and
install a coal and wood-burning

Steeple Being Placed—A cranels
lifting the steeple into place on
the Assyria Gospel Church. The
neWsteeple was built by a
parishioner, Charles Snyder, and
is a duplicate of the original. It is
furnace. This was accomplished
mostly by volunteer labor, as
much of the previous work had
been.
In 1939 the Rev. B.F. Hitchcock
resigned as. pastor of Assyria and
founded what, later became The
Rural Bible Mission, a program
designed to take the gospel
message into rural schools. Rev.
Hitchcock began this ministry
with the small schools in the
Assyria area.
After the merger of the
Methodist Protestant, Methodist
Episcopal and Methodist Church
South, the Assyria church with­
drew from the unification of the
Methodist denominations in 1939.
Kim Sigler, Hastings attorney
and later Governor of Michigan,
was legal council during this time
of negotiation. The Rev. Henry A.
Campbell, then pastor, said the
objection to the merger was
because
of
the
growing
liberalism in the Methodist
leadership.

be repurchased, including the
parsonage by the Assyria Gospel
church group. In June 1952 the
Assyria Gospel Church joined the
Independent. Fundamental
Churches of America, a group of
churches'jfat affiliated with any
demonination and fundamental
in their beliefs.
Early in the 1950’s, during the
time the Rev. Walter Hoeffs was
pastor, the young people tiled the
auditorium of church, and in­
stalled individual seats. These
were a--hideous reddish-purple
color, with white“shootingstars”
and the aisle seats were complete
with , places for electric lights
undeb the arm rests. This past
summer the women of the church
got together and recovered the
seats in a beige color tapestry on
the backs and complimentary
plastic for the seats.
In 1968 the Rev. Wray Bengston
became pastor. A graduate of the
Grand Rapids School of Bible and
Music, this was his first
pastorate. He has an active group
of young people, who for the
Christmas program this year,
will dramatize the minister’s
original three-act play, “Home
For Christmas.”

Under
Rev.
Bengston’s
leadership, improvements
continue to be made, including

Hastings Lad
Earns Silver
greenhand member of the
Hastings FFA chapter has been
awarded a silver award in the
FFA Broiler Improvement
Project.
The project is a join effort of
the MSU Poultry Science Dept.,
the Michigan FFA Association
and the Hastings Vocational
Agriculture Department.
The FFA member is required
to purchase and raise 100 straight
run broiler type chicks. The birds
are then taken to MSU to be
judged on finish (amount of
meat), conformation (size of
idfferent body parts), unifor­
mity, (equal size of all birds) and
bruising (damage that harms
meat).
Besides the birds, the student
also keeps a set of feed and other
records that are evaluated by the
Poultry Science Department.
The records provide the
student with information on his
birds performance in the area of
feed efficiency, death loss, and
cost per pound of meat.
Brad’s birds had only one die
out of 103. They used 2.5 lbs. of
special feed to produce a pound of
meat and the total cost per pound
of live bird was 20 cents.
FFA advisor, George Hubka
indicates that this silver award
marks the second time in the past
3 years that the Hastings FFA or
a member has won a silver
award in the state wide com­
petition.

Making Butter—Third graders at
Algonquin obtained a gallon of
milk to observe how cream rises
on milk. Then the youngsters
made butter and Randy Wright
was the first to "shake” the
cream in the churning process.
To use their butter, the pupils
made pancakes, using more of
the milk. Their teacher, Mrs.
Ethel Kilmer, said the value of
the experience was well phrased
when one child remarked: “T
don’t see how putting all of those
things together could 'make

Dear
.. Remember the good old
days when Dad was king of the
castle, and everyone jumped
when he spoke? And when he
came home from a hard day’s
work, the wife was waiting
with his slippers and pipe?
Fellows, somewhere down the
line our command has slipped.
With woman suffrage has
come male suffering. Why
we’re lucky if we’re even
noticed when we come in from
work, let alone the slippers
and pipe.,
..But there is one thing that
can be done to ease the pain.
We can get a pair of soft
comfortable casual knock­
about shoes that are easy to
_ get into on our own. So rebuild
the old male ego. You furnish
the pipe - we’ll furnish the
slippers.

EDITORIAL
Back Seat For Santa
By Debbie Wieringa
Thoma ppi e Kellogg high school
“I want a Johnny Destructo life
size, heavy duty tank for
Christmas. It only costs $29.95.”
Have you heard this sort of
request around your house as
Christmas time approaches?
Christmas is supposed to be the
season of giving, but in this day
and age children have come to
think of Christmas as the season
of receiving. The birth of Christ
seems to be fading into he
background, making way for
Santa Claus.
Ask any child what he thinks of
when he thinks of Christmas and
you will get a list such as Santa

Claus, Christmas trees, stockings
full of toys and Santa’s reindeer.
The birth of Christ rates a lost
position..
Take a look at all the childreh’s
Christmas specials on television
the past week. They included
‘‘Frosty the Snowman,” ‘‘A
Charlie Brown Christmas,”
“Rudolf the Red-nosed Rein­
deer,” and "How the Grinch
Stole Christmas.” Some of these
programs show real imagination
ana the children love them, but
couldn’t they even mention the
real spirit of Christmas with the
birth of Christ? Maybe just once
Santa Claus could take a back
seat.

Biology Students Learn
Basic Animal Structure
By April Miller
Lakewood’s advanced biology
class, under the direction of
George Johnston, has just
finished their studies of animal
matter. They are working on
assembling anima] structures.
The process includes cleaning
the meat off the bones of dead
animals, by either cooking or
cutting it off. Students put the
bones in ammonia for two to
seven days, wash with Clorox, let
stand in proxide one day, put it in
carbon tech., then let dry- After it
has dried they assemble the
bones by the way of guide sheets.
According to Sally Middaugh, a
student, the teacher doesn't do
anything about the odor of the
dead animals, he just lets it go
out the door.
The animals various students
have been working on vary from

cats to muskrats to a dead deer
found in the woods in back of the
high school.
“It was fun and an experience
to work with these animals
because we learned how to cut
and assemble the bones,” Sally
added.

Class Sells Chairs
By Ken Garlinger
The Maple Valley Shop II class
is making chairs at a cost of $25
on a first come first serve basis.
They have been working on the
chairs for three weeks and will
continue their efforts for about
two more weeks, under the
direction of Mel Kivela, teacher.
The chairs are being produced
in the unusual high school
method of mass production, and
are complete with upholstering
and a Kroeler look.

MV Students Visit
Hospital
By Debbie Wright
Students from minority groups,
sociology, current events and
home &amp; family living classes at
Maple Valley spent the forenoon
of December 7 on a field trip to
the Ionia State Hospital.
Students listened
to a
discussion of four panel members
at the hospital, ihcluding a
psychiatrist on the hospital staff
who spoke about drugs. He in­
troduced three patients who have
lived at the hospital several
years who told of tneir lives and
personal experiences while using
drugs.
Many students considered the
trip educational and enjoyed
listening to'the patients speak of
their experiences.

As of the first of January 18
year olds will be able to purchase, consume beer and vote as
they pUase, but the rules at
Lakewood High School will still
be the same for any student.
“Tlie school policy will be the
same even if the state changes its
mind about the age at which a
student can smoke and drink,”
Lakewood’s Principal Gerrit
Klomp said.
The reasoning behind this is
that there can not be two sets of
rules for a student. Principal
Klomp admitted that there would
probably be someone who will
take this matter to court.
“Whatever the court decides,
that is what we will do,” he said,
“but as for right now we will have
the same rules for all students.”
There will be approximately
141 - Lakewood high school
students who will become 18 by
the end of the school year.
“I don’t see any hangups in
letting 18 year olds have their
rights,” Klomp said. “They are
just as equal as anybody else.”
“I think it's a pretty good idea
for us to have our rights just to
prove to the others that we can be
adults," said Jean Langham, a
student who will soon be 18.
Principal Klomp also ex­
plained that students on athletic
teams will have to abide by the
rules set up by the athletic ad­
ministration.
"I think Mr. Klomp is wrong
not letting us go ahead and ex­
press our rights at scnool,” Jean
said, “aren’t we as equal as the
teachers?”
Later in the year Klomp wants
to have clerks from various
townships come to the high
school to register new voters.

TK Class Ranks High
In Computer Game
By Mary Idema
Gary McKee's accounting
class has been playing a com­
puter game. The class is divided
into ten teams. They have to buy
raw materials, produce and sell
them. The students work within
their teams trying to create the
highest possible profits.
The number one team right
now is “Wenpd’s” with Phil
Wenger and Kim Appel. In
second place is “D+M’r (Doug
Thaler + Mike Beuschel), in
third place is "Korny Korn
Kompany”, (Pat Aickep and
Char Aubil), fourth is “Mary’s
Gift Shop” (Mary Idema and
Mary Chambers), and fifth is
“Regal do- Enterprises”, (Pat
Reaser, Ron Gallup, and Wayne
Kidder).
Over 1.000 teams are playing,
and Middleville is ranked 17th in
the nation.

Snowmobilers bound for State parks, forests and game areas will
find about the same areas and trails open to them as they did during
last season. Our Game Warden Brent Willison has outlined a few
basic things snowmobilers should keep in mind in this area.
Officer Willison explained that Barry has two kinds of State land.
'Die most abundant of the two is State Game Land, which includes
about 15,000 acres. There are about 2,000 acres of State recreation and
park land.

Generally, he says, State Game
Land is closed to snowmobiling
and State recreation and park
land is generally open for that
use. Special regulations or ex­
ceptions may be found in these
areas, so it is best to contact
State area headquarters for
maps and instructions.
Officer Willison points out, in
general, where you can and
cannot go in the Yankee Springs
area. The boundaries for the
recreation area are Yankee
Springs Road to the east, Chief
Noonday Road to the north,
Briggs Road to the West and

Wildwood Road to the south.
“This is a very general outline
and does not give all the special
restrictions within that area that
snowmobilers must abide by. In
this particular area, however,
you do have areas to run on other
than designated trails. The Barry
State Game Area and the Mid­
dleville State Game Area are
very
unmaintained county roads or
the State trails open to motor
vehicles. No off the road
operation is allowed in either
game area.”

“SnoWrtibbHd Paradise” is the
name of Barry County's newest
sports attraction, a snowmobile
traVk constructed by Bob,
Wfersufn, owner of Middle villa
«’ st northwest of Middleville on
-37.
The track, believed to be the
only one of its kind in Michigan,
only needs snow to provide
sportsmen and women with an
ideal facility to run their
snowmobiles.
And Wiersum also expects to
have machines to rent.
Wiersum, who became sole
owner of the Middle Villa in
September of 1970, constructed
the track on the 22% acres of
ground northwest of the popular
spot, which includes a bar, dining
rooms, bowling alleys and other
facilities.
Wiersum explained that he
built the track with a lot of turns
and banks and snowmobilers will
have more than a mile long run.
Wiersum came to the Middle
Villa with Phil and Jim Lewis on
Jan. 15,1969. He later purchased
their share.
*A native of Grand Rapids
where he was born on June 27.
1929, Wiersum was graduated
from Creston High and from
Davenport Business College in
1950. He had attended MSU for a
year.
After he left school he was with
his brother, Fred, as vice
president of the Blodgett Fur­
niture Service, a trucking
business, for 22 years.
He married Charlene Brown in
1949. They have six children,
Charles, 21, who is part time
manager and bartender at
Middle Villa; Steven, 19, who is
going into the Air Corps Jan. 15;
Karen Lynn, who will be 18 next
month, the hat check girl; Mary
Beth, 16, who takes care of the
gourmet table; Robert, 11, and
Margaret, 9.

Ionia Downs
Lakewood, 71-59
Ionia High pulled steadily
away from Lakewood Saturday
night to post a 71-59 non-league
win.
‘
The Bulldogs led 18-15 at the
quarter but Lakewood battled
back to a 35-35 tie by in­
termission. Ionia took a seven
point lead into the last quarter.
Scott Adams drilled 13 field
goals to lead the winners with 31
points. Kurt Kaeding added 12
and Steve Walter 11.
Mike Catlin had 17 for
Lakewood, Denny Frost 12 and
Bill Bowen 11.
Lakewood’s junior varsity won,
69-56.

32THE HASTINGS BANNERDecember 13,1971

�It Was Fantastic-Don Spencer,
25, chairman of the 1971 Hastings
Christmas parade, declared the
cooperation he received in
planning and arranging the event
“was fantastic.” He said the
cooperation he received from
various organizations was “very
good," but he expressed disap­
pointment that more churches
didn’t enter floats. “The floats we
did h«ve represented a lot of
work, and we’ve already started
thinking about next year,”..
Spencer said. Plans are to make
preparations for the parade,
much earlier. Spencer has been
associated with Wayne’s Shoe
Store for about six years.

Retiring—William Sprague, 64,
1546 Coats Grove Road, is
preparing to retire Dec. 30 as
superintendent of the foundry at
The Viking Corporation. Sprague
has been with the corporation
since 1929, when he started as a
coremaker. Bill married Thelma
Miles cm Aug. 6, 1926, and they
came to Hastings from Lansing
the year he started with Viking.
The Spragues have three sons.
Bill of R3 Hastings, who is the
project engineer for the Viking
foundry; Tom of R1 Woodland,
and Kenneth of Middle Lake, and
three daughters, Mrs. Vera

Kaufman of Lake Odessa, Mrs.
Frances Mead of R2 Hastings
and Mrs. Joyce Bowerman of
Climax. Sprague may be busier
than ever after retirement. He
and his sons own and operate
Sprague’s Sports Shop at Lake
Odessa. This Banner photo was
taken in Sprague’s office in the
foundry.

Guest Editorial
By Pauline Hunt

The Baltimore Church of the United Brethren in Christ was
established during the Economic Revolution of the United States.
This period of time has been labeled The Great Divide. It was more
than a proliferation of factories and machines; it was the tran­
sformation of a society.
Within a span of years no longer than a newborn infant takes to
become an adult, a nation of small property owners (the majority of
whom were self-employed farmers) became a nation in which most
men had little or no connection with the land*. The pattern of lives
once determined by the rising and setting of the sun and the slow
steady cycle of the seasons was sharply changed by the restless
tempo of the machine and sharp blast of the factory whistle.
The dramatic riot in Chicago's Haymarket Square in 1877 was
significant. The riot began when a large force of police ordered the
dispersal of a meeting of workmen who were protesting the strike
breaking activities of the police the previous day.
The significance of the Haymarket riot lies not so much in the
violence of the event nor even in the miscarriage of justice that
followed. It was the sense of dismay and horror which gripped the
minds of millions of Americans that was novel. Historically, the riot
symbolizes the issues that would become the central concerns of an
America transformed* by the Economic Revolution—that is, the
factory, the city, the foreigner, and the Sum.
With this machine age came the individual's feeling that be was
just a number.. This terrible feeling of tfeing a “nobody6 is still with.
us today. It is partially due to the breakdown of the family unit which
deprives many children of the loye they so desperately need. Most of
all, however, this dreadful idea that one doesn’t count for anything
sweeps over people when they think they .are only accidental remits
of blind evolution.
fWhen you believe the Bible, however, you have the assurance
that God loves you, unimportant as you mayUfihk yourself to be.
David, the writer of Psalm 8, looked up intoTthe sky one night add
stood in awe as he saw the beauty of the stars Sparkling like precious
jewels against a background of black velvet. He could not help but be
overwhelmed in the realization that the God who fashioned the
distant luminaries and controls the orderly movement of the spheres
had taken special notice of mere man.
The next time you feel discouraged, remember that in God’s sight
' you w?, gijandpr pnd/nore glorious than the brightest stir. He will
never, teaye, yopn^rjorsakie you, and wifi makelrart. you'attain the
’ wonderful purpose lor which He redeemed you. You are not a
“nobody.”

Baltimore United
Brethren
Church
By Rev. Harold Price
‘•J hereby certify that at a meeting held for that purpose in
Baltimore in the. County of Barry and State of Michigan at two
o'clock in the afternoon on the eighth day of Octotfer A D 1881 notice
whereof was duly given the following named persons were elected
church trustees purservent to the discipline and usage of the church
of the United Brethren in Christ for the several terms set opposite
their respective names in this certificate that is to say David Ickes for
the term of one year, Delos Freeman for the term of two years, and
George Dadleford for the term of three years and it was further
determined that said trustees and their successors in office should be
known as the trustees of the first Church of the United Brethren in
Christ of Baltimore Barry County Michigan Witness my hand and
seel this 21st day of October A D 1881. H. T. Barnaby, Chairman of
such meeting. In the presence of Adam B. Sherk and Angeline
Sherk.’*
Thus the organization of the Baltimore United Brethren Church
began. In a recent copy of the Maple Valley News I came across the
following item from the Baltimore area: The Sabbath school was
reorganized for the winter at the Durfee school house, with the
following officers: Supt. Wm. Seeley; Asst. Supt. Mary Grander:
Rev. Sherk is the pastor for the coming year.” The date of the article
was Nov. 6, 1880.
On February 25, 1882 a Warranty Deed signed by the above
trustees and with Silas C. Henry in the amount of Forty Dollars for
land to be used for church purposes.
A document dated August 28,1883 states: whereas the Church of
United Brethren in Christ of Baltimore Barry County Michigan, have
determined to erect a meeting house and .have elected a board of
trustees composed of the following named persons, viz; Geo. R.
Dadleford, Delos B. Freeman and David Ickes, who are authorized to
raiS^subscriplions and proceed to build said meeting house.
An¥&lt;hereas said building will involve considerable expense over
and above subscriptions now obtained.

Shooter Land camera you can use new square film that gives
you instant color shots for less money than ever before.
Come on in. We ll show you how you can take instant color
pictures for about the same price as conventional color shots
with factory processing.

(SMT X 3H"). Your subject s face can be as big as ever - you just
give up some background.
And Square Shooter’s Instant color pictures are easier than ever
to take. The Focused Flash system controls just the right amount
of flash for your indoor shots. An electric eye and electronic
shutter take care of all outdoor exposures, autopiaticalty. And
there’s an ingenious built-in rangefinder for sharp focusing. Now
instant color pictures are the same price as pictures you wait
days tor. Why wait?

Community Notes
WOODLAND
Nine couples from this area
along with 230 others,, traveled to
Spain, recently. The local couples
were Mr. and Mrs. David
Michaels from Kalamazoo, Mr.
and Mrs. George Strout and Mr.
and Mrs. Keith VanDolson of
Hastings, Mr. and Mrs. Clifford
Tassler of Delaware, Mr. and
Mrs. Jon Holm, Mr. and Mrs.
Charles Fawcett, Mr. and Mrs.
Clifford Mattson, Mr. and Mrs.
CHARLES Mulliken and Mr. and
Mrs. Glendon Curtis. Woodland.
They met at Holiday Inn in
Detroit for dinner prior to
departure. The plane was
delayed and it took off at 10 p.m.
rather then 6:30 as scheduled.
After arriving at the Malaga
airport in Spain, they boarded
buses for the hotel in Fuengirola.
The week was spent touring the
area by buses or cars. Some went
by plane to Tangier. Many pic­
tures were taken and each one
will remember this trip for a long
time. Everyone had a wonderfid
time and will be glad to tell all
about it to anyone who is in­
terested. The group arrived back
in Detroit Sunday evening.
Everybody was tired and glad to
get back home but real glad they
went. Traveling is a great ex­
perience and can be very
educational. _ _

IN HEMORIAN

In loving memory of Clare
Sawdy, who passed away Dec. 16,
It’s been eight long years since
that cold December day,
When they came and told me
that my Clare had passed away
With a smile on his face and a
wave of his hand,
He has wandered off to that farSincefe and true in his heart
and mind
Beautiful memories he has left
behind.
I still miss him and my tears
still fall anew
But someday I’ll see him up
beyond the blue.
And when evening shadows
have fallen
And I set here all alone
Tq my heart there comes a
°Ru Clare could just come
home.
My love grows deeper as the
years go by
We’ll have a grand reunion up
there on high
Ulen I’ll take his hand and
Jesus’ too
As we walk along together
beyond the Hue.
Sadly missed by hi? loving wife,
Alice, his sister, Mxs. Ruth
Britten, his brothers, Tffiles. and
Harley, stepbrotherjy. Earl

nephews.

�2 Hastings High
Students Rate
High On Tests
Letters of Commendation
honoring them for their high
performance on the 1971 National
Merit Scholarship Qualifying
Test (NMSQT) have been
awarded to two students at
Hastings High School Principal
Robert VanderVeen has an­
nounced.
Those named Commended are
Philip H. Curtis and Kevin D.
Pufpaff.
They are among 35,000 students
in the United States who scored in
the upper two percent of those
who are expected to graduate
from high school in 1972. The
commended students rank just
below the 15,000 SemifinaUsts
announced in September by the
National Merit Scholarship
Corporation (NMSC).
Edward C. Smith, president of
NMSC, said: “Although com­
mended students advance no
further in the Merit Scholarship
competition, their standing in
this
nationwide
program
deserves public recognition.
Their high performance on the

NMSQT gives promise of con­
tinued success in college.
“The commended students
should be encouraged to pursue
their education since their in­
tellectual talent represents an
important and much needed
natural resource. Both these
students and our nation will
benefit from their contimflhg
educational development.”
The commended students’
names are reported to certain
scholarship granting agencies
and to the colleges they named as
their first and second choices
when they took the NMSQT in
February 1971. The reports in­
clude home addresses, test
scores, and anticipated college
major and career intentions of
the Commended students. NMSC
encourages these students to
make every effort to continue
their education.
BIG STEP FORWARD
It is now unlawful to burn
leaves on one’s property in ’

Illustrated Greetings
Reflect H.S. Art Talent

The talent possessed by
Hastings high school students is
expanded in many directions but
is especially evident in the art
department which this week
dominates
The
Banner’s
Christmas holiday greeting
issue.
Perhaps one of the finest ever
published featuring the local
flair, the paper's advertising
features drawings by the
students whose work has largely
been accepted with such en­
thusiasm that the editors are
hopeful the project will become
an annual event.
Students participated in The
Banner-sponsored contest under
the guidance of their instructors,
Miss Meria Neeb, Mrs. Andrea
Storrs and Paul Simon who teach
the Fine Arts &amp; Designs and Art I
classes respectively, and the
supervison of the paper’s ad­
vertising staff. Materials used in
the project were donated by The
Banner.
The illustrations \ chosen )by
local businessmen and jjterchants will be judged by a panel
of local people followed by the
awarding of cash prizes totaling
$50 for the best five selected.
The original free-hand ink
drawings reflect the thoughts and
ideas of Christmas and were
submitted in competition, and
are presented in this issue for
your enjoyment. We believe they
are very good and think our
readers will agree.
The Banner wishes to extend
its appreciation to the art in­
structors, students and school
administration for the fine
cooperation, and to the many
merchants for their splendid
support in sponsoring the

STOP FORBUSES
Michigan law requires:
“The driver of a vehicle
overtaking or meeting any school
bus which has stopped and is
displaying two alternately
flashing red lights located at the
same level shall bring the vehicle
to a full stop at least 10 feet from
the school bus and shall not
proceed until the school bus
resumes motion or the visual
signals are no longer actuated."

Bernie Oom, head of the on the suggestions of Trustee

in the secondary Schools, 7 the prospects of more and more
through 12, outlined objectives at S' bs in the service field were
the Dec. 14 Board of Education
creasing. Dr. Charles Morrill

pointed out that various jobs are
developing in the medical field
that require less training than a
physician.
Instructor Oom reviewed
development
vocational
education programs here,
pointing out that there had been
considerable discussions about
integrating with Calhoun In­
termediate School District and
the facilities built into the new
high school.
“Maybe we should take a new
look at our vocational education
program,” Oom said. We might
have to do another study. He said
what is being done here in
voactional work is fine, but
perhaps vocation classes should
be of two hour duration and
encompass more specifics using
larger and more facilities.
Oom pointed out that of the 40
percent of the HHS grads that go
on to college, only about 20
percent graduate, leaving some
80 percent of the people without
saleable skills.
Oom said it is time that "we
should move” to provide better
training.
He mentioned the Calhoun and
Branch program, and also that
Newaygo now has an Area
Center, as has Montcalm. These
communities take advantage of
each other’s best programs, he
explained.
He suggested a program should
include the boys and girls from
Kindergarten through the twelth
grade. We should teach them
“What work is all about” he said.
In suggesting the Vocation
Advisory Committee, Oom said it
was time for Hastings to get
involved. He suggested that
something "be made to happen.”
To be studied are the question
whether Hastings should have its
own facility, whether it should
work through area schools such
as Delton for a shared-time

By Sue Sherry

As a senior of Hastings High
School I anyone of many who are
able to participate in Hastings
High’s cooperative education
program. I am presently a co-op
student of Hastings Manufac­
turing Company. Mrs. Latta of
Nahsville is my supervisor.
I work in the OrdErProcessing
Department. I (began editing,
which is checking the items
ordered, to see that the customer
has the right number. Then I was
taught to do typing of bills of
lading, label and stencils for the
addicss of each customer, so
program, or just what should be
developed.
Hastings now has about 55
students on the cooperative
training program, and right now
the school is looking for good
training jobs for /he students.
Assistant Supt. Lewis Lang and
HHS Principal Robert VanderVeen said they had plans to
meet with other schools soon to
discuss shared-time programs.
Trustee Groos, in the brief
discussion following Oom's
presentation, said problems with
persons seeking employment
developed from*their lack of the
basic skills-reading, writing and
math. Oom added that many
employers are asking for people
with good work habits, good
attitudes and the basic skills.
Someone added that “What is
the difference if you can speak 10
languages, and can’t tell the
truth in even one?”

they can be placed on their or­
ders, and the orders are packed
and stamped with these ad­
dress'cs and sent out.
I start work at 8:00 in the
morning and finish at 12:00 noon.
It is my responsibility to report to
work in the morning and school in
the afternoon. In a case where
school is closed for vacations or
bad weather it is our respon­
sibility to report to work, unless
road conditions make it im­
possible.
It is advised and most often
required to have some sort of
background in business, obtained
from business classes, in order to
Set into an office job on co-op. My
ackground consisted of two
years of typing, and one year
each of bookkeeping and shor­
thand.
Cooperative education is very
beneficial in the respect that it
trains a student for something he
or she can use now and later in
life. It also teaches us to work
and get along with all types of
people. Cooperative education is
the start to better and more ef­
ficient employees because they
get an earlier start* on the job.

Mistletoe Magic
Traditionally, when a boy
kisses a girl under the mistletoe,
he- must pluck a berry from the
bough ana give it to her. When all
its berries are gone, the mistletoe
loses its magic and the kissing
stops. Tradition also held that a
girl who wasn’t kissed under the
mistletoe would not marry in the
coming year.

�Recall Family History
On Wedding Jubilee
Mr. and Mrs. John W. Holcomb
of 259 Edmonds Rd., Battle Creek
celebrated their 54th anniversary
on Sunday, Dec. 12, with an open
house hosted by their family the
Merle Burpees and the Keith
Holcombs.
Mrs. Holcomb, the former Lula
Day, daughter of the late Edwin
and Sarah (Bailey) Day of
Hastings, was born Nov. 28, 1891
at Hartford. Her father came
from New Jersey to Hartford
with his parents in 1862 traveling
in a covered wagon. At Hartford
they cleared land and built a log
house, burning much timber to
dispose of it.
Comes from England
Her mother came to Michigan
from England with her parents in
1860 at the age of four years, her
parents settling near Hartford.
Mrs. Holcomb remembers back
in 1906 and 1907 how the people
were going by the house at four or
five oxlock in the morning with
horse and buggy to go to the
agriculture fair at Hastings. She
remembers the week of
chatauqua entertainment at
Hastings.
Mr. Holcomb was born in
Battle Creek March 12, 1890, the
son of the late Ancel Eugene and
Elizabeth (Walton) Holcomb; the
grandson of Emiline (Edmond)
Walton, one of the youngest real
daughters of the Revolution,
passing away in 1913. Her father,
Peter Edmonds, being 73 years of
age when she was bom
The Walton family immigrated
to New Castle, Pa. from England
in 1675.
Works in Bakery
After Mr. Holcomb’s marriage
in 1917 he helped Mr. Day on the
farm near Hastings, working
nights at the Star Bakery in
Hastings for Harold Newton.
In 1927 Mr. and Mrs. Holcomb
with their two children moved to
the vicinity of Bedford, farming

until 1941 when he went to work at
Eaton Mfg. Co. where he worked
until 1958, retiring at 68.
After one year at home he
worked for Mrs. Carter’s
Greenhouse in Bedford for five
years delivering flowers, etc. All
this time he was developing an
organic garden, using’fio sprays
or chemical fertilizers, thereby
proving a good garden does not
depend on poisons, developing a
fine garden from almost pure
sandy soil. A great number of
neighbors and friends can attest
to the goodness of these
vegetables.
Mr. and Mrs. Holcomb are
charter members of the Organic
Gardening and Farming club of
Battle Creek which was started
in the Fall of 1959. They are both
still active around the bouse and
garden, Mr. Holcomb keeping up
his interest in baking, making all
of their own bread.
They now are attending
daytime meetings at the Bradley
Organic Club.

It would be fine if the mall area could operate without parking
meters. With the co-operation of merchants and their employees up
and down the street, this could be achieved—possible, but not
probable, judging from past experience. However, a free mall would
put the central business district in a more competitive position with
nearby shopping centers that provide large areas of free parking
space.
But, either with or without parking meters or any other form of
traffic control, the mall has proved its worth and deserves a more
extended trial.

Let Color Be

Buying Liver
Let color be your key when
buying liver, suggests a
Michigan State . University
consumer information specialist.
Calf (veal) liver is from calves
generally 12 weeks or younger
and has a light tannish-pink
appearance, explains Miss Ada
Shinabarger. Finely textured and
of a delicate flavor, it is the most
expensive choice because its
supply is limited.
Baby beef liver,-frpm young
beef up to a year in age, has a
bright, medium-red ^wr, Miss
Shinabarger explains.
Beef liver from animals older
than a year is dark red. Most beef
liver is from steers of heifers less
than two years old, Miss
Shinabarger says.
Pork liver, darkest of all livers,
contains three times the iron of
other livers. Its high copper
content gives it a stronger flavor.

Fire Can Mar Your Holiday
One of the most untimely
events that can happen to mar
the holiday season is a home fire
that spreads from a burning
Christmas tree.
Such fires are all too common,
for almost $4 million dollars in
property damage resulted from
more than 1,100 Christmas tree
fires in 1970, according to
National
Safety
Council
statistics.
The pitch-laden tree, with
highly flammable needles,
usually is quite dry by the time it
is set up ip the home.

Safety rules include:
1. Keep water in your tree
holder.
2. Keep your tree away from a
register-expecially the
fireplace.
3. Check the wiring on the
lights. Do not put candles on the
tree.
4. Keep smokers and ash trays
away, and decorative candles.
5. Turn off tree lights when you
go out or to bed.
6. Keep the Fire Department’s
phone number handy at all times.
If a fire starts, call the Fire
Department and evacuate the
building.

beginnings in 1932 when a handful
of persons interested in
establishing
a
Lutheran
congregation in Hastings began
holding worship.
Pastor Ness of Zion Lutheran,
Woodland, travelled to Hastings
for worship and confirmation
instruction. In 1940 Grace
received her first full-time
pastor, Rev. Oswald Trinklein.
Io 1944 the congregation was
incorporated and constituted as a
member of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod. The present
building was erected in 1948 at
the comer of S. Jefferson and
Walnut. The congregation has
also purchased and sold two
parsonages during its existence.
The members of Grace invite
their friends in the Hastings
community area to join them on
Dec. 26 at 10:45 to rejoice with
them and witness a long-awaited
event coming true.

Delton High School
On. Jan. 1, 1972, a new age of
majority will become effective in
Michigan. Eighteen to 21 year old
people will take their place
among the adult people of the
state.
As adults these young people
will have many new freedoms
and many new responsibilities.
In order to make everyone
more aware of the changes that
will take place after the new age
of majority comes into effect,
The Banner is running this ar­
ticle.
One of the basic rights that will
be awarded to the 18 to 21 year
olds will be the right to vote. Now
after so many years of having no
voice in the government until
their 21st birthday, they can
voice their feeling through the
ballot. This appears to be one of
the most important new aspects
of the age of majority .With the
power of the vote youth can try to
find more meaning in the
government they live under.
Now young people in Michigan
will be able to enter into con­
tracts without their pafents’
signature,. In the area of con­
tractual agreements there are
three basic areas yoyng people
must be aware of; personal
property, insurance and real
property.
Real property pertains to the
contracts of necessities and
contracts for goods and services.
Minor contracts for necessities
have always been enforceable by
law. If an 18 year old had to have
a car to support himself before he
had to sign a binding contract.
“Necessities” was always open
for interpretation.

Debate Good Practice
For College Classes
By April Miller

By Chris Glenn

The Lakewood Debate team is
on its way to the Tri-River
League Championship after
debaters made a clean sweep at
Coopersville where they won
eight out of eight debates.
"The team has been doing a
fine job,” Miss Shiovitz, the
debate advisor said with a smile.
Those who participated on the
Varsity team were Terry Geiger,
Duonna Boot, Bill Smith and
Linda Mlddaugh. The Junior
Varsity members were Jon
Dickinson, Sherry Fetzer, Dawn
Ingall and Theresa Dow.
“It really depends on the
judge,” Miss Shiovitz said.
"Sometimes a l^or-17 points are
good for one (judge and then
another will give a 25 or 26. Our
debaters usually range in the
high twenties.”
On Saturday, December 11, the
Varsity Debate Team went to the
Hope College Tournament at
Hope College. The team of
Duonna Root, Terry Gieger, Bill
Smith and Duonna Root brought
back four "Outstanding Speaker
Awards”. They returned with
first, second, third, and sixth
place out of about 80 students.
“There are 30 possible points
that can be given to a person and
the person with the most points at
the end of a debate wins the
speaker
award,”
Kerry
Dillenbeck explained. Kerry is a
debater in the West Central
League. She debates with them
because she chose to do so. She
serves as a time keeper with
others on the debate team.
In preparation for a debate a
debater must practice, do a lot of
research, have his evidence well
in hand and know -it well.
"It takes three to four hours, if
not the whole day to prepare for a
debate,” Kerry explained.
The next debate is scheduled
for January 13.

Delton’s debate team is tied for
second place with a 9-3 record in
the Wolverine League Com­
petition this year. Delton,
Plainwell, Otsego, Three Rivers,
White Pigeon, Comstock and Gull
Lake are,in the league. Three
Rivers is now a close second with
a 6-2 record. Delton has not yet
debated them.
The Delton team competed in a
debate at Kalamazoo Central
Saturday, December 4. Each
debate team member spoke at
least an hour and ten minutes.
There were 74 teams in the
tournament, including many
class A schools from the Detroit
area.
The debate topic is pre-chosen
by the National board of debate
coaches. All the high schools in
the nation debate on the same
resolution. The topic selected for
this year is on the jury system of
the United States. It was decided
the
system
should
be
significantly changed.
All the Delton debate team
members were questioned about
their experiences and all replied
favorably.
“This is my third year in
debate,” Beth Christensen said,
“and the longer I’m in it, the
more I like it.”
“I like it because I li|ce to
argue,” Ted DeVries said. "Also
I get to meet new people."
“I enjoy it because I get to
meet interesting j people. Bob
Harein said.
“I like it,” Tom Johncock said.
"It lets you compete with other
schools on an intellectual basis."
Allan Beebe, debate coach,
encourages students to take
debate where it is offered.
"Students who have gone on to
college have told me that debate
Erovides one of the best
ackgrounds for their college
classes.” Beebe said.

From Fruit Sales
Sophomores at Maple Valley
are busy distributing orange and
grapefruit orders sold as a class
money making project. A truck
load of 1,700 boxes arrived
Thursday from Texas so good
odors and a holiday mood spread
throughout the school.

Sales exceeded $6,400, enabling
some lucky tenth graders to pay
for their senior trips or have a
good start on the total amount
needed.
The fruit will be distributed in
20 and 40 pound lots. The class
will make about 40 percent profit.

This is the first project of this
sort at Maple Valley. It appears
that it may be the start of a
tradition.

Citizens Attend Open House
By Debbie Wright
Parents and other citizens of
the community attended an Open
House at the Maple Valley Jr. Sr.
High School, Dec. 15. The pur­
pose of the Open House was to
give an opportunity to visit school
and observe classes in operation.

Decorations throughout the
school were displayed by the art
classes, with the Spirit of
Christmas. The FTA club
members served as guides to all
visitors and also served refresh­
ments.
A special feature was a series
of “mini-programs” performed
throughout the day by the
English, home economics,
speech and music departments.

Beginning at 9:00 through 3:00,
the mini-programs consisted of
vocal numbers, instrumentals,
skits, individual readings and
many demonstration speeches,
assembled by Principal Jim
Wynes and art teacher, Mrs.
Christine Emery.

The most exciting section of the
new Thomapple Kellogg High
School and perhaps the most
innovative, is surrounded by
classrooms. This section is the
library or the learning center.
You get your first glimpse of it as
you enter the front doors.
Directly before you is the glass­
walled center. Thus it is most
accessible to the public.
The library is in two main
sections; the study areas'(in the
library itself) and the rooms just
off the library. The study area
has three main parts; the public
section, the sunken part and the
main study area.
As you enter, on your left is the
public comer. The public library
contains books for young and old.
Lounge chairs and sitting pillows
for reading make it more like,
home.
The lower shelves house the
books for the little people. On the
higher shelves are the books for
the big people.
Straight ahead and down a few
steps takes you to the well or
sunken area. In this area are the
fiction books. The books are
arranged so that when you are
standing on the steps, the books
with the authors’ last names
starting with A are on your left.
Comfortable chairs and tables
invite you to stay a while.
Back up the stairs, you are
standing in the main study area.
In this area are the carrells, the
service desk, card catalog,
vertical files and comfortable
chairs in red and blue.
The carrells are desks with
high sides for independent study.
These are electrically wired for
record players, tape cassettes
and other electronic instruments.
Their black and orange chairs
add color to the cheerful at­
mosphere.
If you are taking out a book you
get it checked out at the U-shaped
service desk.
The non-fiction books 000 to 999
(Dewey Decimal System) line
the outside walls.
Also in the main section are six
reference desks. At the reference
desks are periodical guides, used
for finding magazine articles on
topics one may be doing a report
on.

On the table beside these desks
sits a microfilm reader. Some of
the magazines that are on
microfilm can be signed out of
the magazine room to be scanned
on the microfilm reader. If you
would like a picture of a par­
ticular article, you can get one
made from the reader.
The magazine room is just one
of the many rooms in the library.
Here one checks magazines in
and out.
To your right as you come
through the front doors of the
library, you will see two rooms.
It’s very possible that the cur­
tains between them will be
drawn. These two rooms are
conference rooms. If the sliding
curtain in the middle is opened,
the room becomes a classroom.
Around the library and past the
magazine room, you come to Mr.
Reyff’s and Mrs. Ekker’s office.
Through the office and out of the
other door, you walk into the
Receiving room. Here the films
and other materials are checked
in from the Regional Enrichment
Center.
Later this room is to be used for
running the video camera and for
storing receivers to be utilized in
classrooms. Through the door,
you go into the TV room. This
room is used for taping plays and
skits or other activities. Right
now Mrs. Townsend, reading
consultant, is using this room to
tape first graders learning their
numbers and letters.
The next room you come into is
the Central Processing room.
New books are brought to Mrs.
Murphy.
Go through the door on the side
of the Central Processing room
and you come into the AV room.
In this room Mr. Osterhart keeps
the tape cassettes,
film
projectors, and other audio­
visual equipment.
Mr. Rpyff and Mrs. Ekker are
tiie librarians who planned this
elegant learning center.
Mr. Reyff said his philosophy
of the library is to keep it open
always. He wants to be able to
have one or two classes in the
library, and to still have room for
students from Study Hall.

High In the heavens.
To mark the lowly birth place,

The angels sang In sweet accord.
On that eventful night.
To guide Shephards and the wisemen.
And the star shone very bright.

On this greatest night of nights.
Many, many years ago.
T'was when our dear Savior.
Came to this great earth of'Ouri*.1

As they enioy the tree.
Think of the dear Savior,
Who died for you and me.

Which Wood

It’s fireplace time, and with it
comes the problem of buying
firewood.
We don’t know which wood
bums the longest with the most
heat, but here’s an interesting
poem that will give you some of
thesnawers, although not all tree
species are mentioned.
Beech wood fires are bright and clear
If the logs we kept a year.
Chestnut's only good, they say.
If for long It's laid away.
Birch and fir Ipgvburnfoo fast.
Blaze up bright and do oot last.
Elm wood bums like a churchyard mould;
E'en the very flames "are cold.
Poplar gives a bitter smoke.
Fills your eyes and makes you choke.
Apple wood will scent your room
With an Incense like perfume.
Oak and maple, if dry and old.
Keep away the winter cold.
But ash wood wet and ash wood dry,
A King shall warm his slippers by.

PEACE UNITED METHODIST CHURCH
By Rev. Williams P. Reynders
With hot spots across the Middle East and East where there is
anything but peace and aware as I am that I am serving a church
recently having taken the name of “Peace”, I am compelled to
comment on the subject of “Peace”.
.
. .
Altho Jesus Christ the Messiah was ushered into the world by
angelic cries of “Peace and Good Will,” his own teaching concerning
"Peace” is little understood. When he spoke of "Peace” he was
thinking of interpersonal relationships, not ideas opposed to war
between nations. Altho bom among a people which had known little of
“Peace” with their neighbors in its entire history, he more or less
evaded the national question of taxes when he said, "Render unto
Caesar—.”
When he used the word, “Peace” he was burdened with thoughts
of His kingdom and the building of it: His Church. So he said. "I have
not come to bring peace but a sword” or division. He was truly a
revolutionary. He knew that if people accepted and attempted to live
in accordance with, his radical teachings there would be division and
strife.
•
Listen to him say, "hate your brother.” “If anyone comes to me
and does not hate his own brother etc—he cannot be my disciple”.
Again, "He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of
me." He meant, still thinking of His kingdom, “You cannot maintain
the ordinary ties of life and follow in my way. You will have to agree
to disagree with those you now love so dearly if they will not follow me
too. Some of the disciples clearly understood this when they said, “We
have left all to follow you.”
Then among his last words before Calvary we find this poignant
expression, “My peace I give to you, my peace I leave with you NOT
AS THE WORLD gives, give I to you.” Of course, he did not believe in
killing or fighting or violence of any kind except perhaps when it
came to maintaining the sacredness of His Father’s house, but the
“gift of peace," as found in the New English Bible, has nothing to do
with intemationalconflipt in his time or any time.
I feel that His peaceIs the lack of inner turmoil that comes with
true fellowship with Hirn and our Heavenly Father. At first there
would be division but when all people everywhere come to his way of
thinking there would be peace among nations. Call it the impossible
dream, if you will, but that is a challenge to any individual or church
that wants to bring His Peace to all the world. Certainly it is a
tremendous confrontation to any congregation that takes the name of
“Peace.”

praises of the Babe of Bethlehem,
and hymns reflect the spirit of
rejoicing.
Not only is this a time for
happiness, it is a time for
Thanksgiving in this Nation
which is seeing its prayer for
peace being fulfilled in the
Vietnam pullout.

Ankle In Cast

The body snatchers are at it
again. Grim and ruthless, they
sever trunks from the lower
sections, slash off limbs, and
truck midsections away to
greedily convert them into
greenbacks.
The massacred victims are
prize Michigan walnut trees, so
valuable for their fine wood that
thieves boldly steal walnut logs
from roadsides and farmyards
throughout southern Michigan.
Some Vulnerable

“Trees at a farm’s edge are
especially vulnerable to theft,"
said B. Dale Ball, director of the
Michigan
Department
of
Agriculture, in warning farmers
to practice vigilance. “Now, with
leaves down, prime walnut trees
are easy for hijackers to identify
by their distinctive silhouettes.
Many of our remaining large
walnut trees are near fence rows,
-lanes or farmyards, where
clandestine loggers can score
swiftly.”

Council Hears Tax Expert On Procedure
Hastings officials, unhappy
about a State-ordered increase in
property assessments, and
determined to find out why the
City received a high percentage
of the hike, shot questions to a
State
Tax
Commission
representative Monday night,
Dec. 13.
Commissions Secretary Ed­
ward Kane explained the three
levels of equalization, how the
commission determines ad­
ditional property value increases
and the role of the commission in
property
assessment
law
changes.
Just Follows Law
Kane told councilmen the Tax
Commission doesn’t consider

itself in the lawmaking position
other than to suggest possible
changes in the law that would
improve administration..
Asked how the commission
determines whether or not to
increase property values in a
given area, Kane samples of
various types of property, (i.e.,
commercial, residential, in­
dustrial, agriculture) are taken
to achieve the assessment level
of each unit.
Commission personnel figure,
according to Kane, that a four to
five percent sample of residential
and agriculture property sales,
and a two to three percent check
on other types of property is
sufficient to determine the need
for an adjustment in the
equalization total.
Seek Equal Burden
The system of equalizing
property,
Kane^ said,
is
established on three levels. The
assessing officer, who must
assess at 50 percent of cash
value; county commissioners
through their equalization
department, have the respon­
sibility of insuring equal
distribution of property values
around the county, and the State
handles a similar job only to
oversee equal distribution of
property values throughout the
state.
Hastings officials dispute the
fact that City property values
were low enough this year to
warrant
an
additional
assessment hike. Tax Com­
mission authorities having
secured a study of Barry County
property earlier this year, or­
dered the county’s equalization
department to spread another
five percent in property values
across the county. The city
received 19 percent of the in­
crease.
City official^ argue that they
spent more than $25,000 two
years ago to obtain a re-appraisel
to bring properties throughout
the City in linO with current price
values, therefore the City should
be in good shape.
Dispute Assessments
City authorities claim tho *county is under assessed arjd •
more of the five percent incroOsC
should have been spf^aa on
township property.
.
Kane quoting from tax com­
mission reports, said Barry
County is'not that well assessed
and has been slow to rise in
property valuations in com­
parison with the market value of
property.
Kane also told councilmen that
it is up to the county to spread

tjity

.sidtfitional1•'! tiwrw

value increases ordered by the
state. The City’s recourse, if
unhappy, should have been an
appeal to the County Board of
Commissioners.
Plans New Hike
The county^ Equalization
Director Milton Buehler told

councilmen the city wasn’t hurt
by the five percent hike and as
the result of inflation, property
should receive a five percent
increase each year.
Buehler also said he realized
there are townships where
property is not up to 50 percent of
cash value but there are areas in
the dty that are also low.
It’s apparent that City
authorities intend to watch the
problem closely next year and
may fight the county if next
year’s anticipated property
assessment figures rise too
sharply.

The Delton Board of Education
met on Monday evening, Dec. 13,
with the Citizens Planning
Committee, and because several
committee charimen requested
additional time to finish their
reports on a study of the needs of
the school for additional space, a
special board meeting was set for
Dec. 27.
Studies presented by com­
mittee chairmen show that
renovation definitely is needed in
the present intermediate and
high school to fit the needs of
today’s trends in education.
Every Room In Use
The present building does not
have adequate storage space
and, with the increased
enrollment, every room is in use
every hour. Thus,.teachers do not
have a room of their own and
must move from room to room as
do the students. Therefore the
request for departmental office
space which would later be used
for team teaching planning.
There was an expressed need for
additional conference areas.
The study also indicated a need
for proper ventilation is such
areas as the band room,
chemistry department, &amp; room
62-64.
The present bus bam is filled
due to the unexpected enrollment
increase which required the
purchase of four additional
busses. Busses are again being
housed in the old bus bam which
was at one time being considered
for renovation for vocational
classes. Studies have shown that
new vocational construction
would be more economical and
satisfactory than remodeling.
In other business the board
voted to purchase an additional
portable
self-contained
classroom at a cost of $13,230 to
alleviate the crowded conditions
in the intermediate school.
These portable classrooms, of
which the school already owns
two, will have a continuedpse for
such areas as remedial Teading,
counseling, additional media
area, pbssibly special education,
etc. New construction now under
study
cannot
be
made
operational, before }973, due to

�Final Spurt Gives Hastings Victory At Gull Lake
Hastings High eagers, who
broke loose in the fourth period
Friday night to post a 71 -53 non­
league victory at Gull Lake, were
scheduled to travel to St. Johns
this JTuesday night hoping to
notch their third West Central
victory and move up with Ionia
which won its third conference
game at Lansing Waverly,
Friday, 80-45.
St. Johns suffered its third
league defeat last week at Grand

Jerry Kessenich, held to two

We wish everyone a joyous, and blessed Christmas.

This great holiday season should be a happy one, especially for
Hastings High Coaches Jerry Eckman, Ernie Strong and Larry
Melendy. Coach Eckman had the satisfaction of coming back from a
miserable 1970 football season to achieving a winning season last
Fall, and tying for second in the West Central Conference.
Coach Strong right now is just hoping that Santa will bring him a
continuation of the success his HHS eagers enjoyed last season, which
has been almost duplicated in this portion of the 1971-72 season. Up to
this week the Strongmen had posted four straight victories, and
should add a fifth at St. Johns Tuesday night. Last season the Blue &amp;
Gold had five wins under their belts when St. Johns came here and
won a 72-70 decision. St. Johns won the title, edging the Saxons 95-93 in
their second meeting.

Coach Melendy has an im­
proved wrestling team, which
posted a narrow win over
Waverly last week, and tied for
seventh in the East Grand Rapids
invitational Saturday with one
individual champion. Tom Allen,
who is unbeaten for the season,
won the 138-pound championship
defeating Grand Rapids Catholic
Central grappler in the title
match.
Ed Hurley won a third place
medal at 167 and Sophomore
Terry Traister a third at 112.
Mark. Pittelkow won a fourth
place medal at 126. Coach
Melendy seemed proud of his
charges. “They did a good job
and hustled on the mat. We’re
lacking some of the finer points,
but we’re coming,” Melendy
said.

Michigan State is offering boys
and girls between nine and 17 a
unique opportunity next Sum­
mer. Hie MSU Instructional
School plans to give youngsters a
chance to improve their personal
skills and enjoy part of their
vacation on one of America’s

�Area Residents
Oppose
ZoningChange
All 43 residents of the Jones &amp;
Taffee addition south of W. State
Road oppose opening up lots 20
through 35 to permit construction
of apartment houses and
members of the City Council
rejected the proposed changes in
the zoning ordinance Monday
night, Dec. 13.
Spokesmen declared that they
agreed that there was a need for
apartment dwellings in Hastings,
but objected to them in their
area.
Delete Objection
After rejecting the ordinance,
councilmen voted for it after City
Atty. Paul Siegel eliminated that
proposed change in the zoning
map.
The hearing on adopting the
ordinance-as it was change-will
be held next Jan. 10.
Aidermen said the ordinance
represented too much study, and
contained too many valuable and
desirable regulations not to be
adopted. The proposal includes
provision for mobil home
development, setting up more
strigent requirements than the
municipality now has on the
books.
Pay 167,689 Bill
Bill approved included one
from the State Highway
Department for the City’s share$67,698-of the W. State Street
improvement. Hastings officials
had agreed in advance to assume
its share of water and sewer
installations.
Councilmen authorized
replacing the wooden utility pole
at the SW comer of State and
Broadway- with a $180 steel pole
that would conform with the
others on the main street, and
also with putting most of the
wiring underground. The total
cost to ^jhe City is $330.
Atty .'Siegel has under ad­
visement a tax bill from Rutland
Township which levied $1,394.76
on the Hastings airport property.
Aidermen approved the City
Bank's request to rezone as
commercial the property on the
south side of Center between
Church and Jefferson, and set

at Northeastern presented a
“Christmas Around the World”
program for their parents Friday
afternoon. The children wrote

stories about how Christmas is
celebrated in other countries and
trimmed a tree with decorations
such as are used in other lands.
After the program the youngsters
served "hot wassail" and

cookies. They decorated place
mats and napkins, too, and gave
their mothers arrangements
made from bam siding, dried
flowers, seed pods and grasses.
The mothers also enjoyed the

dioramas the children had made
of the Christmas books they had
read. In the photo (left to right)

As a co-op student at Hastings
Mutual Insurance Company, I
work from 8 a.m. to 11:30. The
afternoon co-op student, Brenda
Pierce, works from 12:45 to 4:30.
During this time we work in the
filing department at. Hastings
Mutual. My first duty in the
morning is sorting the mail,
pulling the policies from the files
that go with it, and distributing it
to the employees that they go to.
Some of the familiar lines of
insurance sold are homeowners,
fire and—extended coverage,
farnyowners, liability,
automobile, windstorm and
several pthers.
I also answer the phone for
people who need certain policies
to be pulled and brought to them.
My main job is either pulling
case for certain departments:
coding, typing, underwriting,
toss, data processing, or refiling

cases that come back in when
they are finished being worked
on.
I have worked in the filing
department since I first came to
Hastings Mutual last September.
Mr. Johnston is in charge of the
co-op students at Hastings
Mutual. He said that during the
year he was going to move us
around to the various depart­
ments. This is to give us some
education of the business which is
the main reason that the co-op
program is set up.
In order tu qualify for co-op
training, a student must be a
senior and his credits must be up
to date before he can be accepted
in this program. The co-op
program has done a lot for me. It
has given me a chance to work
and to meet all of the people at
Hastings Mutual. They are all
friendly and they make me feel
like one of them. I look forward to
the days when I will be working
at Hastings Mutual.

Hastings Council Monday, Dec.
13, adopted a new sanitary
landfill ordinance which will
require patrons to spend at le$st
50 cents every lime they use the
City’s dump on W. State Road.
The old price was 50 cents a year.
10 Coupons for $5
Users can purchase books of 10
coupons each for $5, or a half
book for $2.75, and the attendant
will collect one coupon for each
yard of waste, or a fraction
thereof, starting Jan. 1.
Hie dump generally will be
open on Tuesdays, Thursdays
and Saturdays.
It was pointed out that it cost
about $32,000 a year to maintain
the facility, not including
machinery, and that the new
procedure would require those
who use it the most pay the most.

Residential patrons will start
paying $2.75 a month for the first
garbage can, up from $2.35, and
$1 a month for each additional
can, doubled from 50 cents.
Commercial customers will be
paying $5.50 instead of $5, and $3

�Woodland
by Betty Curtis
Christmas, 1971, is almost
here. People all over seem to be
in the usual hurry-scurry pace.
Regardless of how early one gets
started there is always the last
minute rush. In spite of all the
rushing we should remember the
true meaning of Christmas. It
should be a happy time and not a
time to dread. Maybe we try to do
too much in too short of a time. So
what if our cards do arrive a little
late, take time to put some love in
with the card. If this is the only
time of the year you write to
some of your friends, take time to
write more than your name. I

would rather receive mine later
and find out what they have been
doing than get it on time and have
it hurried. There are also many
programs to attend. If you have
several children and they are all
in separate programs, try to
attend them all. It will mean so
much to them and you might
even get a good feeling inside of
you. Many churches in the area
will be having programs as well
as the school bands and choirs.
These will all be good and should
give you that good feeling. One
should keep in mind the reason
we celebrate Christmas. Keep it
a happy time and greet your
friends and neighbors with t a
smile. Let me take this op­

portunity to greet all our friends
a very Merry Christmas.
Ron Stevens and four of the
FFA boys presented the program
at the Lions Club meeting. They
showed pictures and told of some
of their recent trips and projects.
Due to the sickness of the
president, Roger Buxton, and the
first vice president, Cliff Matt­
son, Charles Fawcitt, second vice
president, presided. Their next
meeting will be Dec. 28. This will
be their Christmas party with
wives invited. They, too, will be
donating to the Community
Christmas Project.
The Woodland Child Study Club
met at the home of Mrs. Ford
Enz. Mrs. Pat Yonkers presented

the program on hobbies. She
demonstrated textile paintings
and discussed other hobbies.
Some found a hobby to relax
them after the rushing holidays
at this meeting. Guests are
always welcome. Each member
was asked to bring a donation for
the Lakewood ComjBupity
Council Christmas Project. They
are working together with area
churches and organizations to
make happier Christmas’ for the
less fortunate in the area. This
will take place of the usual gift
exchange. All members were
urged to attend and bring a guest.

Co-op Education Corner
By Bruce Fuller
My name is Bruce Fuller, and I
would like to tell you a few things
about co-op.
Co-op is a subject you can take
when you are a senior in High
^School, it is where you are em­
ployed at a business or factory
for three hours of the day, where

you learn different techniques,
and learn the trade, while you in
»turn receive two credits and pay.
For example, I work at
Hastings Shell and my employer
and supervisor Is Joe Daniels and
co-supervisor, Kieth Murphy. My
duties are principally pumping
gas and waiting on people, when
not pumping gas, I am In the
back room where my supervisors
show me how to do different jobs
on cars, such as winterizing,
changing
batteries,
and
repairing tires.
I think the class I have
benefited most from in school is
industrial arts, mostly auto
mechanics.
I would recommend co-op to
any student with ambition,
because here you don’t just read
about it, you do it.

CONSUMER TIPS
For a new and different break­
fast idea, serve icy cold prune
juice with a twist of lemon. Or.
combine chilled prune juice with
an equal amount of apple juice,
shake well and serve m chilled

Shelled nuts can be frozen in
tightly-closed freezer containers
at zero degrees or lower to
prolong their freshness. Most
nuts can be frozen six or more
months. However, frozen salted
nuts keep only a few months
because salt has been found to
hasten the rancidity of fats and
oils in frozen foods.

                  <text>End Parking Mall: Council,
Chamber To Study Solution
Despite reported unanimous
approval of the two-block
parking mall on State Street, the
City Council Monday night, Dec.
27, rejected by a 5-2 vote the
request of the Hastings Area
Chamber of Commerce to have
the .mall continued while a
permanent program can be
developed.
Almost in the same breath
. councilmen approved a motion to
have their public safety,or­
dinance and parking committee
work with the Chamber of
Commerce’s new "task force” in
coming up with an overall plan.
Jerry Beckwith is chairman of
the "task force.”
Temporary Agreement
In November councilmen
approved the Chamber’s request
to have* a temporary parking
mall
established
between
Michigan and Church street from
Dec.'6 until Dec. 31. The Council
agreed.
Throughout the Christmas
shopping season, the mall was
utilized and both shoppers and
merchants liked it, according to
all surveys.
Robert Johnson, manager of
the Chamber, .outlined at Mon­
day’s Council session the ad­
vantages of the mall, and also
presented petitions which he said
were signed by 490 persons
requesting the mall be continued.
Johnson said the mall has been
a success and “all are pleased.”
He said he had received personal
comments and numerous phone
calls from persons who like the
parking convenience. Retail
sales were up, and a portion of
the increase could be attributed
to the parking mall, he added.
Pedestrians Liked It
Outlining its advantages.
Johnson said the mall provided
free, convenient parking for
shoppers, made it easier for
pedestrians to cross the street,
slowed traffic and eased
congestion at State and Jef­
ferson.

developed, such as motorists
failing to park “Straight in,”
could be worked out, although
shoppers apparently would
rather park at an angle, Johnson
said.
Councilmen cited loss of
revenue as one objection to the
mall, and the traffic problems
created on other streets. The City
lost about $1,000 in revenue
because of the experiment, it was
reported.
Mayor Cedric S. Morey pointed
out that the parking mall is only
part of the problem, and the
entire picture must be studied.
The installation of additional
traffic lights on State was
mentioned.
Merchants May Finance
The possibility of merchants
offsetting the City’s loss of
revenue because of the free
parking was discussed, and is to
be explored. A parking mall
could result in the State
eliminating the entire length of
State Street from the major
street program, with a further
loss of revenue of about $4,000 a
mile.
Al Signs and Leon Hale,
merchants ndt on State Street,
Soke in favor of continuation of
e mall. Both said seeing a busy
and lively downtown great and
healthy Ken Radant of WBCH
declared that all of the station’s
consumer surveys resulted in
unanimous approval of the
parking mall.
Alderman Stuart Clement said
tht experiment could have been
Hucky," as we didn’t have a
snow stdrm during the entire
period. The problem of snow
removal on a mall is very real.
To Study Problem
Mayor Morey said that the
Council was not in a position to
arrive at a conclusion that night,
and must take a studied look at
the entire picture.
Aiderman Michael Huver
moved to deny the Chamber’s

�EDITORIAL
---------------------- by R. M. C.-------------------------About all one can say of 1971 is, that one can hopefully look for­
ward to a better 1972. Not that the past year has been all bad. In fact, .
thcce were quite a few constructive developments that may indicate a
brighter future.
The war in Viet Nam is definitely being phased out at an in­
creasingly accelerated rate. It is probable that within the next few
months all combat units will have been withdrawn. This is not a
hhppy ending to a combat involvement that began in the Kennedy and
Johnson administrations but is definitely better than wasting more of
our human and material resources in continuing a war that we do not •
(and probably never did) intend to win.
campuses across the nation seem to have quieted down with
more attention given to studies and less to marches and con­
frontations. That is a hopeful sign although it may be but a lull while
the “new left” agitators are regrouping and organizing for further
trouble. On that we shall have to wait and see. There is no indication
that college and university administrations are any better able to
cope with trouble makers than they were before—and that ability was
minimal.
It may be that the Kent State tragedy has had a sobering effect on
campuses everywhere and emphasized the fact that those who play
with fire or join in with agitators who advocate violence and
destruction can get badly burned. At Kent State none of the left-wing
firebrands who aroused student feelings to a fever pitch were there
when the shooting began. They were safely removed from the scene
of action.
Likewise confrontations in the name of "civil rights” were
much less in evidence during the past year. Street marches drew
smaller crowds and the violence that did develop was more easily
contained and did not win much support from those participating in
the marches. Even the attempt by far left-wing radicals to “close up
Washington” by massive sit downs was something of a fiasco. This
would appear to indicate that participants there for what they
believed to be a legitimate and worthwhile purpose had their
emotions under better control and renounced violence as a technique
to gain public sympathy. If so, that is a constructive gain.
It is too early, as yet, to evaluate the degree of success (or
failure) of Phase II of the economic controls. At worst, the controls
can do no harm in comparison with conditions that existed before the
program was started. At best, the program can help stabilize
production costs and cool inflationary pressures that threatened to
get out of control.
Devaluation of the dollar was, from the standpoint of in­
ternational trade, a step that needed to be taken. Here at home, the
effect will be slightly higher prices for imported goods. Within the
United States, however, there wifi be no difference between the
purchasing power of the old and the devalued dollar. The change
should put us in better competitive position in the international
market—that is, in relation to foreign currencies. American goods
will be cheaper abroad than they are now while goods produced
abroad will be higher priced than they are now here in the United
States.
Of course there is a certain amount of prestige in having a
currency recognized as a standard in world trade. However, this was;
a prestige that became much too expensive to maintain. Thus, in
commenting on devaluation, one might correctly state that we will
lose international prestige but gain considerable in international
trade.
‘
.
Another favorable development pt the past year is that
Americans, even the extreme liberals, now have come to accept the
fact that the United States can no longer afford to act as "policeman”’
for the free world—nor is there any reason why we should. It is-high
time that Americans give more thought to what is good for America.
Isolation from world affairs is no longer possible for any nation,
large or small. But in any defensive or police action we should insist
that other nationscarry their fair share of the effort ?nd the expense.

Ecology has been recognized as an A-l national concern during
the past year. That is a healthy development if we can keep from
going overboard on the subject. Correcting the many destructive
factors that have developed during the past century cannot be ac­
complished overnight or even within a decade or two. Sound
programs and steady pressure in the right direction is what we need.
Nothing will be gained from frantic, poorly-planned efforts.'

A heated difference of opinion over the value of busing to achieve
racial balance in public schools has become an increasingly bitter
topic during the past year. Reason has given way to emotion in most
of the discussions. If you oppose busing for any reason whatsoever,
vou are likely to be classed as a racial bigot. If you favor busing, vou
are merely an impractical idealist. Not thought, apparently, has been
given to the fact that different situations require different treatments
and that insistence on uniform procedure, regardless of local con­
ditions could often do more harm than good.
During the coming year, one may at least hope that common
sense will eventually prevail in the consideration of this issue.
Undoubtedly the really important problem is in improving the
schools, equipment and the faculties, located in districts lacking the
resources to maintain A-l educational establishments. In many in­
stances at least, the added cost involved in massive busing programs
might better be spent in improving the quality of education available
in such areas.
One depressing development during the past year was a full
public realization of the extent of the dope problem in the United
States which is no longer confined to ghetto areas but is found
every where—even in junior and senior high schools where surrep, tious sales of dope in various forms go on daily to those in the know.
No one has the answer to this problem and the end result an in­
creasing army of addicts that will add to the growing welfare burden.
But the real tragedy here is the number of potentially good and useful
future citizens being affected in an unexpectedly severe manner by
the heedless use of dope. Because of the difficulty of apprehending the
pushers, the best other alternative is a straightforward, unvarnished
presentation of facts—even though it is quite obvious these presen­
tations often fall on deaf ears.
Hastings, is not immune to this problem—quite the contrary, in
fact. Dope in various forms, so it is said, is easily available to those in .
the know—even on school property.
"

Crime, especially street crimes, appear to have increased during
the past year and there is nothing to indicate that the problem is
improving or is likely to improve until certain Supreme Court
decisions limiting police procedures are reversed. These decisions,
intended as a safeguard of personal rights have had the practical
effect of aiding criminals in avoiding prosecution.

America’s attempt at revitalizing its rail system apparently
made little progress during the past year—quite the contrary, in fact.

THE HASTINGS BANNER

December 27, 1971

Everyone agrees that the United States must develop better systems
for mass transportation since it is both costly and wasteful to keep on
building more and more super highways to solve crowded traffic
conditions.
It is a paradox that the United States with the greatest resources
and the most advanced technologies of any nation in the world should
lag so far behind in the development of an efficient mass tran­
sportation system.
Judged by past recessions, the one which apparently touched
bottom this year was a comparatively benevolent one. Business, in
general, was good though not booming. The worrisome feature was
that desnite the slowdown in industrial activity, costs continued to
Vise until the Federal government stepped in with its Phase I and II
operations. Temporarily, at least, inflation^has cooled down con­
siderably. Let us hope that this trend continues during 1972.
There is every reason to expect an improvement during the
coming year. Bank savings are at an all time high; inventories are
low; some progress, although probably not enough, is being made in
adjusting tensions in minority groups. If campus and civil rights
-demonstrations remain peaceful rather than violent; if another strike
like the one against General Motors does not develop to cripple the
entire economy and if Americans retain faith in themselves and their
country, then 1972 should provide the start for a very productive era.
The present situation calls to mind the words that Franklin D.
Roosevelt uttered during his first inaugural when he said: All we have
to fear is fear, itself.”
•
Not only this year, but for several years past, Americans have
been filled with fear and self doubt. Nevertheless, we are a great
nation and a great people and if we ever go down to defeat, we our­
selves, will have to do the job.
As 1972 downs, let us begin to look forward with faith and con­
fidence.
----- ::----A Happy New Year, All.

Passenger Suffers
Broken Neck.As
Driver Avoids Deer
Marvin Lee Pennington, 40, R2
Hastings, suffered a fractured
neck about 10:10 p.m. Wed­
nesday, Dec. 22, when the car in
which he was riding went out of
control on M-37 and M-43 near the
Dog ’n Suds, according to the
sheriff's report.
He was taken first to Pennock
and then transferred to Blodgett
Hospital tn Grand Rapids where
surgery was scheduled.
Mrs. Dolores Sheridan, 40; 519
E. Green, was driving a 1966
Dodge monae.She said she
swerved to a/oid hitting a deer,
lost control and went down a
bank, rolling ov
over. She was
hurled out of the car and was
treated
at
Pennock’
for
lacerations and bruises.
Despite his injuries, Pennington helped carry Mrs.
Sheridan up the bank,
doing both in heaven and on
earth.
My own conclusion is that this
opera is much more than a false
story or a lacking worship ex­
perience. It is blasphemy!
(Blasphemy being deliberate
irreverence in speech or actions

record, waning all against its
influence on and involvement in
this opera.
Sorry, too, that involves such a
worthwhile project.

To the Editor:
I just read your article in the
December 20th issue announcing
"Jesus Christ Supterstar’’
sponsored by the Javcees. I
really \appreciate what the
Jaycee’s are doing about the

have done in the past. They as a
group, have always held high
principles and terrific goals. I’m
sure they would be concerned
about the spiritual conclusions
that will be drawn from this
opera. On that basis, I submit
three principles by which “Jesus
Christ Superstar’’ and the
"Bible” should be thoroughly
examined.
1. The rock opera, "Jesus
Christ Superstar,’’ has Jesus
denying His own Ddity. It does
not portray Him as The God, The
Saviour of the world, The Author
of Faith and Miricles, (John 3:16,
Luke 9:20; and Acts 16:31) but
rather as a faltering, questioning
man caught in the cross currents
of what he feels he ought to do
and what he thinks he really
wants to do. This opera has Jesus
guessing at God’s world plan,
thus omitting the Father, Son and
Holy Spirit as One. This opera
c&amp;lls him a man, dying a tragic
death on a cross never to rise
again.
2. The rock opera, "Jesus
Christ Superstar," falsifies the
Bible. It gives its characters
words to sing which are in direct
contradiction to what is written
in the Inspired Word, which has

The Nashville Council Thur­
sday evening Dec. 23, approved
installation of a street light near
the VFW Hall.
The VFW members will pay for
the light. Parking on State street
near the hall became quite
congested at times, and along
with adding a light, the street is
to be marked to encourage cars
to be parked closer to the
building. In the near future the
VFW parking area is to enlarged.
The council discussed traffic
problems on Reed Street near
Carl’s Super Market. With the
heavy school traffic on this
street, along with through traffic
and those turning into Carl's
Market, traffic gets very
congested in this area. Further
study will be made.
Supt. Carroll Wolff and School
Board
President
Wallace
Graham discuss traffic problems
on Washington and Middle
streets which run on two sides of
the Kellogg elementary building.
Improvements need to be made
because the school yard is small,
and during the noon hour, when
the children are playing, they
often chase footballs and
baseballs into the street.
Trustees comtemplate putting

a fence along Washington Street.
On Middle street the best solution
seems to place “school caution"
signs at the intefsecnoh of
Washington and Middle, and
Gregg and Middle Street.
Councilman Fred Corkins, a
member of the Fire Board,
jaiported thaU new ambulance is

�Hastings At Ionia Tuesday For Battle Of Unbeatens
The Hastings High Saxons, who
shot their way lo- their fiftii
straight victory by defeating St.
Johns, 74-57, Tuesday, Dec.2I,
are drilling over the holidays
preparing to meet the unbeaten
Ionia Bulldogs at Ionia on
Tuesday, Jan. 4.
Hastings and Ionia are all
alone on top of the West Central
Conference ladder with 3-0
records, and Tuesday’s clash
should be a great one.
Coach Don Gorsuch’s Ionia
eagers have balanced scoring
power and eight veterans on the
""squad. Dave LaFleur, the third
J highest scorer in the league last
season, is back along with Scott
Adams, who was 16th in loop
scoring, Steve Walter, Kurt
Kaeding, Nick Ludwick, Phil
Lesky, Wayne Piercefield and
Steve VanHouten.
Adams was the fourth best
rebounder in the league last year,
and Kaeding the sixth best.
After opening at Lowell with a
one sided 8S-50 victoryv Ionia has
continued to breeze over all the
rest of its competition, trouncing
St. Johns 87-44, Lakewood 71-59,
Charlotte 71-55 and Lansing
Waverly 80-45.
In contrast, Hastings squeezed
by its first three opponents,
beating Marshall 77-70, Grand
Ledge 72-69 and Alma 67-65. Then
Coach Ernie Strong took his
charges to Gull Lake where they
* posted a 71-63 non-league win
before handing St. Johns its fifth
straight loss, 74-57.
It will be a shooting and
rebounding battle at Ionia, with
Hastings, too, boasting a
balanced attack. All five of the
Saxon starters can get into the
double figures.
Coach Doug Japinga, in a
rebuilding period after losing all
of his starters off the 1970-71
championship squad, has a
developing team which gave
Hastings a real ball game last
Tuesday.
The Saxons trailed 8-7 after six
minutes of play, then forged
ahead to stay but didn't fashion a
comfortable cushion ufitiHast in
the first period.
Hastings went into the third
canto with a 13 point bulge, then
outscored the Redwings 18-6 to
start the finale with a 21 point
edge.
Again
Forward
Jerry
Kessenich paced the Saxons,
sinking 11 out of 24 field goal
attempts and 3 out of 5 from the
line. But it was far from a one
man show.
Andy Reid hit three buckets
without a miss in the fourth
quarter spurt and finished with
six out of eight and had 14 points
for the night. Ted Fitzgerald
added 11 points and Rick Rohde
10.
Pat Kindt came off the bench
and did a fine job on the boards,
and blocking shots. Tom Steward
also did a good relief job. Coach
Strong used almost all his bench.
Hastings was ragged, however
and committed atleast 13 tur• novers in the first half and 19 in

The Spanish Club Christmas
Party turned out to be a success
with approximately 35 to 40
people attending, both from
Hastings and Lakewood.
“There were games which
consisted of things we learned in
Spanish class about Spain and
another game was where we had
to translate popular songs,
r novels, and sayings into
■ Spanish,” Pat Blessing, one the
the Lakewood students attending
the party, commented. A girl
from Hastings won the prize for
the first game, and Pat won the
prize for the second game.
After the games, the big event
of breaking the pinata took place.

Hastings High’s eagers travel to Ionia Tuesday night to meet the
basketball team that is favored to capture the West Central Con‘ ference title. Both Hastings and Ionia are undefeated, but the
Bulldogs have a much more impressive record than do Coach Ernie
Strong’s lads. Ionia has won all five of its games with comparative
ease, the Saxons have had to struggle practically all the way.

Fires Damage ’
Cars, Building
Hastings firemen were called
out because of two car fires
Wednesday, and one barn fire.
The front cushion in the 1965
Buick owned by Robert Mat­
teson, Rb* Hastings, was
destroyed and other damage
resulted from a fire he
discovered about 8 a.m. Wed­
nesday, Dec. 21. Matteson had
spent the night with relatives on
Center Street, parking the car
about 8 ptm. When he went out
about 6:30, he found the
smoldering fire and tossed water
on it. He thought he had it out, hut
Hastings firemen were called.
During the noon hour the front
cushion of a 1966 Buick owned by
James Read of Comstock Park
caught fire from a light he had
placed on the cushion. The light
must have,been turned on ac­
cidentally, and ignited the
• cushion while he was out of the
car, which was parked on M-37
near the Dog ’n Suds.
Fire Chief Donald Sothard
estimated damage at about $100
to the new pole bam owned by
Ron Hesterly at Bachman Road
and Woodland. An over heated
stove apparently ignited a wall.
Firemen were alarmed at 3:22
p.m. Wed., Dec. 22.

Primitive Styles
it.The first type of footwear
was a single wrap-around of
leather, similar to a moc­
casin, held together with
rawhide lacings. Another
early design was a simple
sandal, held on the foot by a
leather thong. The oldest shoe
now known is a sandal made
of woven papyrus, found in
Egypt and dating from about
2000 B.C.
..Moccasins, sandals and
simple boots were the
prevailing types of footwear
up until the middle ages.
Wooden clogs and shoes,
commonly used by the poorer
classes were also Important.
Until modern times footwear
was largely homemade,
though • many were produced
by village cobblers, lhe first
mass-producing shoe factory,
on a small scale, was in Lynn,
Mass, in 17*0.
..We casfe^ftimitive shoes.’

�Breakthru Gets
$9,070 Grant For Equipment
for their recently purchased
.........

EBI BREAKTHRU, INC. *--has
been awarded a $9,070 grant for
equipment by Michigan Division
of Vocational Rehabilitation.
This grant is one an 80 percent20 percent matching basis where
the agency will match local
money at a one to four ratio.
The equipment which is being
purchased fqr the sheltered
workshop for the handicapped
includes a 15 passenger bus for
transporting to the Lake Odessa
Center some of the handicapped
adults from Greenville, Stanton,
Crystal, Belding and Ionia.
Funds for the operation of the
bus, including salary of the
driver, are provided for by an
Education Title 1 grant through
the Ionia County Intermediate
School District.
Other items paid for by the
D.V.R.
grant
include
a
typewriter, fire extinguisher,
vacuum cleaner, commercial
sewing machine, a sink, elec­
trical wiring, and eavestroughing

from

building, folding chairs, a
grinder, hand jack truck and a
drill press.
The sheltered workshop has
grown from approximately 15
clients in the summer of 1970 to 33
today. Handicapped adults also
come from I^ake Odessa, Por­
tland, Clarksville, Delton ' and
Hastings.
\
The purpose of the workshop is
to assist handicapped adults
attain the fullest educational,
physical, mental, emotional,
social, vocational and economic
usefulness level of which they are
capable. The goal is worked
toward through providing the
clients with a productive life. It is
a work-oriented rehabilitation
facility.
Employment potential is
geared to unskilled or semi­
skilled subcontract work such as
small assembly jobs. The
workshop tries to maintain the
same techniques and atmosphere
used by industry. The work
conditioning and training of each
client must continue long enough
to permit learning a job. It’s
duration, for most handicapped
will therefore vary for each
trainee.
Sheltered workshops such as
E.B.I. Breakthru must depend on
support from outside sources for
both financial and material gifts.
Many items of equipment have
been donated by area industries,
service organizations, clubs and
individuals. A building drive was
undertaken last spring. Enough
donations of money were
received from area organizations
and individuals to make a down

Norm's Bicycle &amp;
Sewing Center

payment on a building in Lake
Odessa in June.
- r
.
The Ionia County 'Mental
Health Act 54 Board has provided
a grant for staffing workshop for
this year. In exchange for this,
grant E.B.F. Breakthru, Inc. is
providing training for mentally
handicapped adults.
Even though several grants of
money have been received, the
sheltered workshop is still in
need of the continuous support of

area citizen^. No sheltered
workshop can ever become
completely self-supporting.
Manager of the facility is Mrs.
Shirley Joppie of Lake Odessa,
assisted by Mrs. Patricia
Forquer. Mrs. Grace Gray both
of Lake Odessa, Mrs. Alice
Showers of Vesta burg and Lester
Fawley of Clarksville. Officers of
the corporation are: Chairman—
Mrs. Mariarr Cowley of Lake
Odessa; vice-chairman (Public
Relations) Jack Westover, Ionia;
vice-chairman (finance) Dr.
Lawrence Schlack, Hastings.

Burton &amp;amp; Co. were listed as the proprietors of the "Republican Banner", which first appeared here on May 1, 1856, with Dr. C. S. Burton as the publisher and Norman Bailey as editor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Publication office was on the second floor of the Rower Block, whose address was given as "corner of State and Church"; which corner was not specified.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The objective of this publication was to win support for the newly created Republican party and thus counteract the influence of the Barry County Pioneer, a Democratic journal that had been published here since 1851. No copies of the first three issues of The Banner were saved.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Make-up on the first journal corresponded with a pattern typical of most local journals then published. Page one contained a few columns of advertising, fiction (often a continued story), and a short feature of no particular news value. Page one was the "literary" page.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Page two contained the editorial barbs, along with state news, political articles, Washington items and news of the national and territorial giovernments. Page three contained a few items of local news, sandwiched inbetween the local and foreign news.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Page four was usually solid with advertising and as such was the editor's "bread and butter" page....Locally it was the pattern until the early 1880s.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Several changes in ownership and management occurred during the first two years of publication, with J. M. Nevins taking over ownership interests on July 16, 1857. With the issue of May 7, 1862, "The Republican Banner" became "The Hastings Banner". Editor Nevins thought the village had developed sufficiently during the past several years to merit this recognition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another major change in the management of The Banner came when Nevins sold the newspaper to George M. Dewey of Niles on March 14, 1866, who then took over as editor and publisher. Dewey, an ardent Republican and somewhat of a crusader, gave considerable space to editorial comment and party affairs and also directed pointed paragraphs against the saloons and local traffic in liquor. Dewey was the grandfather of Thomas E. Dewey, Republican presidential nominee in 1944 and 1948. Editor Dewey on May 4, 1870 changed the format (and name) of the paper to "Hastings Republican Banner". &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A fire in December 1883 burned The Banner plant (located in the middle of the block on the north side of State St. across from the courthouse). Files and back issues from August 1880 to December 1883 and the January 4, 1884 issues are missing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Banner was purchased by Marshall L. Cook and George Bower on July 21, 1880. They changed the name to "The Hastings Banner". M. L. Cook soon became the sole owner and remained so until July 7, 1887 when Albert Nishern (M. L.'s brother-in-law) joined him. Albert Nishern sold his interest on November 6, 1889 to William Cook (M. L.'s younger brother).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Cook brothers partnership held together (56 years) ... Richard Cook followed his father into the newspaper business, and Richard's son William joined him. So the Cook family ownership continued for 85 years, from 1880 to 1974, when Richard and William sold the paper to High Fullerton. J-Ad Graphics became the owners of "The Hastings Banner" in August of 1981.</text>
