Jaycees Pleased With Response To ‘Super Star’ If successful, Jesus Christ "Super Star" may be just the forerunner of more local stage culture under the auspices of the Hastings JayCees, it was hinted by Ted Egleston, president, during a briefing of news media at Hotel Hastings Thursday, Dec "Super Star” will be presented in a single performance Sunday, January 16 at 3 p.m. in the Hastings High School sym and, Egleston enthused, ticket sales are exceeding expectations with over 80 percent of reserved Tickets already sold. Calls from other areas and repeated requests from local students, for whom the rock opera is primarily sponsored, prompted the Jaycees to extend the student ticket price of $4.50 to performance time, Egleston announced. The modern music opera concerns the last five days of Christ’s life, up to and including the crucifixion,Egleston ex­ plained “afid is geared to appeal to all age groups.9’ Engagement of the New York Touring Company which consists of 12 musicians. 18 actors and features the modern singing group, “The Brandywines,” cost the Jaycees a down payment in the $3000 range, Egleston noted. Explaining circumstances that brought "Super Star” to Hastings, Egleston told newsmen, "the decision to contract for this nationally known group came at our general membership meeting Dec. 6 for reasons that are unanimous among the membership. Everyone talks about doing something for the young men ana women of our community”, he continued, “we decided to do something.” Other reasons cited by Egleston included “overwhelming high school and college response to a preliminary survey and the membership being completely interdenominational held a genera) concensus that “Super Star” while not necessarily accurate in content to the Bi We, has thought-provoking merit relative to Christ’s role on ear­ th.” Egleston also admitted the Jaycees consider the project partly as a business venture. “If sucessful," the president said optimistically, “tne profits will enable us to pay the balance owed on the Whirlpool Bath.” Even though the project may not ignite a cultural spark for productions of this nature Egleston feels it’s a tribute to the membership’s energy and faith to accept "Super Star” which was proposed from the state level. To Ask Delton Voters For New High School The Delton-Kellogg Board of Education unanimously voted to place on the ballot next Spring a proposal for a new high school building. In a review before the final decision was made the following factors were listed: need for an industrial education center geared to high school ace level; additional physical education facilities at high school level; an auditorium facility; and ad­ ditional classrooms. As these items all best lend themselves to a high school building the motion was then made to plan for building a new high school with renovation to the existing facilities. The school board has asked the citizens committees to submit final detailed recommendations on curricultim to them by Feb. 14 in order to determine exact needs in all dreas. Daverman and Associates of Grand Rapids, architects, has been hired to advise and assist the committees. They plan to present size, floor plan sketches, middle school renovation plans, and a preliminary cost estimate to the board by March 15. The kaleidoscope of life in Hastings and Barry County during the past 12 ______ months reflects events both big jig and small, many of which had id some effect on almost everyone, and some had a very intimate effect on many individuals. The greatest progress ap­ peared to have been made in the "winding down” of the war in Vietnam, with thousands of servicemen being returned from the battle areas, and more with­ drawals promised by the ad­ ministration of President Nixon. With the prospect of peace, Barry County’s young men, just as those elsewhere in the Nation, could make their plans for the future with more assurance. Progress in saving oUr en­ vironment from continued deterioration was seen in the moves of individuals in curtailing tailing burning, recycling materials and in Hastings’ launching construction of a modem waste treatment plant at a cost of $1,454,373.

Governmentally, Hastings received a new mayor with Aiderman Cedric Morey moving into the chief executive’s chair with the resignation of the veteran, Franklin C. Beckwith, who moved just beyond the City limits. Three new aidermen were elected, Gordon Fuhr from the First Ward, Lynn Brown from Die Second and William Cook from the Fourth, to replace Edwin Wietnik, Dale Bassett and George Hamaty, who did not choose to run for another term. The relocation of M-37 and M-43 west on Slate Street from Broadway got underway, with the awarding of the $1,298,121 contract to Carl Goodwin & Sons of Allegan. Hastings is paying $67,698 as its share of the cost of installing larger water and sewer mains. Hastings Council also adopted a resolution thanking Edward D. Tudor for his services to the City as an aiderman. volunteer fireman and fire chief. Chief Tudor retired and Mayor Morey named Donald Sothard to suc­ ceed him as head of the Fire Department. Taxation took the spotlight for a while, when the State Tax Commission ordered Barry County to spread an additional $5.5 million on its equalized valuation, and $1,048,433 was spread on Hastings' property. A hassel developed, when the City’s share was spread only on the residential property for the collection of the municipality's Summer tax. However, by the time the county and school tax was levied, the assessment role had been corrected and the added tax was spread equally on all parcels in the City. Barry County saw the con­ struction of a new mini-jail, which was occupied as the year neared its end. The facility culminated a movement which began back in 1964, when the State closed the old county jail. The new jail will cost the county $36,900 a year until 1993, and the total bill will run about $8(Xh000 With the Sheriff's Department moving out of the old structure, more office space was made available for the crowded county units. The first to move into “new quarters in the old Jail” was the Zoning & Planning Commission, and the District Court offices were scheduled to move into the building, too. Barry County also acquired a second Circuit Judge to provide quicker justice to all concerned. Barry County acquired the Professional Building to obtain much needed space for the Department of Social Services. Solving of one of the area's most gruesome murders was also reported during the year Robert Jay Brown, 31, on Dec. 6 pleaded guilty to second degree murder in the death of Mrs. Shirley (Kathleen) Wo6ds Mrs Woods was shot three times in the head by a .22 rifle about 7:30 a.m. on Nov. 25, 1970. State Police Detectives Robert H. Goim of Wayland, Sgt. Ronald W. Schoonmaker, Paw Paw, and Sgt. Wayne N. Clinton. East Lansing (but a Hastings High graduate), were cited for their excellent work in solving the case. Also cited by Col. John R. Plants, director of the State Police, were Barry County Deputies Larry Gay and Jerry Plank 3 Barry County's wonderful Charlton Park & Museum were improved, and outstanding^ events were held which attracted hundreds of persons. The old Bristol Inn. which had provided hospitality to travelers during the stage coach days, was moved to the park to become a per­ manent part of the developing “Village?’ Transportation-wise, the Barry County Road Commission con­ structed a new bridge to carry Center Road traffic over the Thornapple. It rebuilt the road to Freeport from M-43 to provide the people and Clarence Buskirk and his Lumber Company with an all-weather highway Buskirk made a generous contribution to help finance the highway, and the Road Commission and other governmental units participated. The activities of the Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce increased with the employment of Robert Johnson as the executive secretary. The Dawn Patrol was one of the first projects undertaken, and it was exceptional The Chamber sponsored Harvest Days, another wonderful Christmas Parade and a successful membership drive should provide the emputus for greater achievements in the future. A development in Hastings--for years unanticipated--was the Start of the sale of liquor by the glass after electors had approved it on Nov. 3. 1970, by a vote of 1,381 to 846 The City Fathers in January decided to eliminate the usual Spring municipal elections and to follow the State's lead by electing officials in odd-year November balloting.

Backus, Social Security District Manager in Grand Rapids, Michigan. “Census figures show that since 1950 the number of people 65 and over has increased by about 63 percent - from 12 million to 20 million, “ Backus said. “The younger population has in­ creased 32 percent.” I AN Mill Ion Get Checks “About 16.8 million now get monthly retirement checks from social security," he said. “That includes about 13.6 million retired workers plus dependents in their families.^' Not all of these retired workers are over 65, however. Eligible workers can begin collecting social security retirement benefits as early as age 62, although payments are reduced. Full benefits are payable if the worker begins collecting them at 65. Social security retirement benefits now average $131 a month. “The very fastest growing age group is the very oldest—75 and over," Backus said. “They’ve almost doubled in number during the past 20 years— from 3.9 million to 7.6 million, according to the census." Some 5,250 people who are 100 < or over get regular monthly checks from social security, an increase of 61 percent compared to 1969, Backus said. Build Protection Almost everyone 65 or over has health insurance protection under Medicare, he noted. Through social security, younger workers and thar families build disability and survivors protection as well as retirement protection, he said. He added that many people in the 65 and over population are still working. Il’s not unusual for social security retirement beneficiaries to work at least part of the year, he said. "If a retirement beneficiary still get his regular check every month." Backus said. “And no matter how much his earnings add up to for the year, he can be paid a social security check for every month he earns $140 or less or performs no substantial services in sdf-employment." In addition, people 72 or older can collect social security benefits each month regardless of how much they earn. And, almost everyone 65 or over has health insurance protection under Medicare whether they are retired or still working. Backus said.

C.----------It will be a bad thing for Hasttags if the City Council and the Chamber of Commerce can’t get together on some plan for continuing the Parking Mall in the central business district. Shoppers were more than pleasad with the arrangement. For the first time in many a year, they were given the right of way. No longer was it necessary to go against fast moving traffic while crossing from one side of the street to the other. Both sioes of the street became one retail unit rather than two divisions separated by a speedway. With the slower pace of traffic, motorists, or at least the great majority of them, were much more courteous to and considerate of pedestrians That was a very favorable bonus. It became fun to shop in downtown Hastings. The Citv Counsel objects to the arrangements as is on account of loss in parking meter revenue It woqld be easy to criticize individual members for a "penny pinching" attitude. However, one must keep in mind that the Mayor and Counsel have the responsibility of managing city affairs The problem is a tough one. Revenue is limited, expenses high and demands.’for improvements and services great Thus parking meter revenue does represent a resource that, under present conditions, would be difficult to replace. However, it is also a fact that,’ in the long run, a prosperous business district is of more importance to the city than parking meter revenue. But, there is no reason why we can't have both. Personally, we had hoped that parking within the Mall area might be continued on a free basis until it could be definitely deter­ mined whether too many people were misusing the privilege for all­ day parking Check tests run after the Mall was in operation, in­ dicated that more than 90 per cent w<e making legitimate use of the parking space, with only about 10 per cent taking advantage of the situation for free all-day parking If free parking is not practical under present financial conditions, why not continue the 90 degree parking arrangement and install meters accordingly. Actually, this should increase the revenue since almost twice as many cars can be parked with this system in effect that under the present parallel arrangement that few. if any, really like. • Under the "straight-in" system, the city could afford to allow amnle width for each parking space and still increase the parking mewr revenue over what is no^ possible with the parallel arrangement The idea here isn't to crowd in as many meters as possible but rather to provide ample room so that motorists, expert and non-expert alike, will find the operation of parking convenient and easy. Whynot keep the Mall, mark spaces for 90 degree parkins, install parking meters and keep the present speed limit of 15 m.p.h. in the Mall area The Mall is the best think that has happened to Hastings in many a year. It is a big step in the right direction and should not be discontinued. There is no reason why a satisfactory compromise cannot be reached between the council and the Chamber of Com­ merce It is too good an idea to be scrapped Hastings needs the Mall. Earl Boyes, during his active years, rendered fine service to Barry county and to Hastings. He was an extremely competent register of deeds who, term after term was strongly supported on a strictly bi-partisan basis. Earl was a generous contributor to wor­ thwhile local projects, a fact not generally known, because his gifts were made quietly and with no thoaght of public recognition or personal publicity That is the way he wanted it In spite of physical handicaps that would have sidelined the average individual, Mr. Boyes remained remarkably active and conducted a prosperous real estate business He also maintained a fine sense of humor and it always gave you a lift to sit down and talk with him. Mr Boyes earned the respect of all who knew him for his courage and spirit He was an exceptional individual who, over the years, in his own unostentatious way. took an active and useful part in local and county affairs No community can ever have too many citizens like Earl.

Voice Of The People Several times I have read of the Barry County Peace Com­ mittee. This group is supposedly active in the “Peace Movement" and also sponsors draft coun­ seling.

In the basement of the Episcopal Church was the advertised time and place, but I’ve been there To The Editor: It is a shame that one small "incident" should spoil such a fine effort as displayed by our very nice and friendly Santa Claus. Who would believe after reading last week’s letter to The Banner that this Santa Claus visited my family’s home to inform certain little children who were visiting from out of state that they would not be forgotten just because they were not in their own home? Who would believe now that this same Santa Claus strolled the streets for hours in chilly and unpleasant weather to greet many small children and adults? Who would believe now that this same Santa Claus stood in a small barren unheated shack for hours at a time to greet the children who were so anxious to jump on him and tug at his clothing and beard and glasses'* I. for one, believe this now because as I worked downtown everyday during the Christmas season I saw our Santa Claus endure the weather and the children and the cold shack Sure its a “job." but Santa took the job because he wanted to do it. And when offered a few bucks for beyond-the-call-of-duly favors which he did for me. Santa refused, saying. “It’s Christmas time and I'm Santa Claus..." No. Virginia, there is no Santa Claus as long as there is a negative attitude against him They sure don’t make them (the tolerant) Jike they used to! Jahn C. Johnston several times at that time and not found any draft counseling or even any people. In addition to the seeming nonexistant draft counseling, what else does the Committee do and what does it want to achieve? And what kind of organization does the group have?

Ben]amine Coonfair Cramer was the first person in Baltimore Township to hold church services in the home which he built in 1867 & 9. Word was sent to the various families, as early as 1850, that they would be welcome to come to his log home when itinerant ministers traveled through the countryside on horseback, staying overnight, wherever they preached B.C Cramer was a Catholic of German parents. My aunt Cynthia Rosella Cramer, in family records, stated that her father was able to go on with the plans for the brick church because of the many newcomers to the community whose religion, although different than his own. was in need of a church of any kind "rathef than NONE at all/’ There are several other mistakes in the article, one being the name .

Mrs Ernie Bateman, who is their sister, could have been of help also. Pauline Hunt, who was a Cheney, should have been able to give some pertinent information other than what she wrote Her grandmother was the daughter of David Baulch The community of "Baltimore" was at this crosswooded road for many years, when much of Baltimore Township was Hastings township until about 1855. Tne Roush, Cramer. Ickes, and Scott and the Striker families were the first to come into the township, but my grandfather, was the first man to own land there Apparently, the former minister removed the records, if it was necessary to go to the Maple Valley news to find this brief history. My grandfather helped to build the original log church, which was replaced by the present brick church. He married my grand­ mother, Sarah Hyatt rfof Covington Co . after the death of his 2nd wife, Margaret, who is buried in Striker Cemetery, the land having been given as a burial ground, by Gilbert Striker, who owned the land on that comer of the township. This land was originally owned by and settled on by Daniel Striker, and the house, which he built, is now owned by Arthur McKelvey, Mr. Striker having given it to his son Gilbert Striker, who had married the daughter of the Scott family. It later became the Gilbert Scott farm, for a time, being portioned off, so that a house could be built thereon. The small son of John Houghtalin being the first buried in the newly acquired "burial ground" as it was then called. These facts were written down during the lives of the older ScottStriker families, and were published in The Hastings Banner, by myself. (Mary E Cramer, and George C Scott) we at that time made a very thorough study of all pertinent facts, regarding these old families. The Houghtalin family resided where Orson Laubaugh now lives They were later in coming into the neighborhood, and were cousins of E.L. and Allen Houghtalin’s father. I write this only to set the record straight, as many people write items without bothering to get the facts straight, leading future generations astray, on their family history. Our book on the Cramer family history will soon point out to the present generation how im­ portant it is to keep family records. Ths diaries of Cynthia Rosella Chaffee (Cramer) Hammond, left much wonderful history, and our close association, during here lifetime (having lived until 1950’s) was filled with "what it was like in the old days." The diaries of Frank Chaffee were also a source of much material. It is sufficient to say in ending this that B. C. Cramer, and two other men were the very first to own one whole section of land, in what was then known as Baltimore township, later a part became Hastings Township. B. C. Cramer's son, Alexander f. Cramer, was one of the first to enter the Civil War from Barry Co. A second son, Wm., by his second wife, died in 1857. A 3rd son. Charles died in 1871, bom of this 3rd wife Saaah-A WirrB. Cramer, lived until 1943. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. C. Cramer �Ass’l.

Our tax dollars should be in­ vested in such a manner as to both maintain and promote the community. Our police and fire protection services are ex­ ceptional and the other city services are most adequate but little has been done in the area of further promoting the city for future growth. In order to prosper as a shopping area we must be in a position to compete both in products as well as convenience. A visit to one of the big city shopping centers nearby will show that Hastings is loosing a large percentage of its customers Perhaps the city might give further consideration and study - , to the proposal before turning it down.

Now young adults can become involved in the country’s affairs and actually be a par­ ticipant, instead of just a bystander. They have the op­ portunity to express their feelings and be heard as an adult apd not just as someone who .happens to be near. These were the feelings of the new adults questioned They are glad to be recognized and to become involved. Many skeptical people think there’ will be problems al first until everyone recovers from the initial shock, and that some young adults will abuse their rights. But those questioned agreed that later everything will be smoothed out and that the number of disastrous conflicts will probably be small. Several people, including high school students, graduates and college students, were asked to comment on their newly acquired privileges How do they feel about them? When asked if their plans would be changed in any way as a result of their new status, most responded that besides the ability to vote and go to bars, there wouldn’t be any major changes during the year •'A little scared.” some said.

The year began with the revised dress code, allowing students more freedom, choice and a more positive outlook towards school. Under the supervision of a new director. Jack Spence, the high school band also changed, melodious notes now echoing throughout the halls Another group of Delton Kellogg seniors have decided which routes to take after graduation. Several have already been accepted by the colleges they hope to attend. Though only a small per­ centage of 18 year olds have taken advantage of the new Age of Majority act by registering to vote, they assumed this right on January 1. Along with the privilege of voting. 18. 19 and 20 year old people now will acquire all the rights and responsibilities of adults. On December 9, Delton high school students held a mock convention to nominate a Democratic presidential can­ didate.

For a few it will mean marriage, for some though, it will bring a letter from Uncle Sam. For those eighth graders this year, it will mean the big jump to the high school. Then, of course, there’s that summer job to look for. For those students who will still be in school, it will mean Homecoming week, tryouts for the pjay, and the Christmas Ball. For the seniors, it will bring the Prom, the Senior trip and most important of all, graduation. Yes, 1972 will probably be different. How different will depend on those of us who will have a hand in shaping it.

"The school rules arp for all students and age doesj’t, make any dif­ ference, as tar as smoking, drinking and the use of automobiles.” Wynes said school ad­ ministrators from all over the state attending a meeting at Olivet College November 12, were confused about how to treat 18 year olds. He said there were also only a few solutions offered at the high school principals state meeting November 30 through December 2. Wynes said there isn’t any legal precedent to follow and the solution Maple Valley has chosen is now based on the opinions of attorneys. The principal noted that the emphasis in curriculum will be expanded to include studies of the new rights and responsibilities of 18 to 21 year olds. The govern ment classes, which seniors must take to graduate, will now cover such things as contracts, pur­ chases, registration and voting and all other pertinent legal rights. Students. 18 or older, who are absent from school must still have a note from their parents if the student is living at home, Wynes said.

Grand Hastings �Reduce, Reuse, Recycle To Aid Nation New School Emerges From Dream To Reality By Gerald Haight From a dream to an idea to a reality, on a sunny September 7th morning the doors of the new Thornapple Kellogg High School opened to a crowd of 580 high school students. With almost a semester of use behind it. the building has proven its necessity in our school system by solving the problem of overcrowding, as suffered the previous year. In a building shared by the high school and the junior high school student body. De conditions became almost unbearable, making the $3,400,000 building mandatory. A proposal for the new high school was put to a vote and one year ago this fall the building preparations began. The site on Bender Road was cleared and construction continued throughout the winter. Work ran three months ahead of schedule. The collapse of a gym wall and a fire on the roof were the only apparent flaws in the building process. The many residents eagerly watched the structure take form, and patiently awaited its com­ pletion. It took two times around for the operation millage to pass, but it did; and on that bright Monday morning already aluaed to. 580 students crowded into the gym for the first time to hear the new principal. Henry J. Dugan give his opening remarks. The finishing touches were yet to come, however. The swim­ ming pool, the controversial subject in the failure of the first attempt to gain an operational millage, was finished late Oc­ tober.

Salient features of the new high school are the football stadium, the community swimming pool, the auditorium, the learning center. the combination cafeteria-study hail, the TV facilities, the gymnasium and the home economics and art facilities. Coordinated yellows, oranges, pumpkin and browns create cheerful environment. The carpeting throughout most areas is restful and attractive. What was formerly an 80 acre farm, is now converted to a beauty spot in its setting of plantings and treesThe new .building is now complete, and on December 5 the school was officially turned over to Mr. Dugan, the faculty and the student body.

Most students and faculty members anticipate a new school year filled with as many wor­ thwhile and educational ac­ tivities. You can help solve the Nation’s solid waste disposal problem by following the three “Rs” of ecology - reduce, reuse, and recycle - a Michigan State University marketing specialist reports Packaging materials account for 13 percent of collected household waste and an even higher percentage of roadside litter, says Mrs. Sheila Morley. In a typical year, Americans throw away 48 billion cans, 26 billion bottles, 4 million tons of plastic and 30 million tons of paper. Limit Purchases Help reduce these figures by limiting, your purchases of products with excess packaging materials, such as individually packaged p*rvings of lemonade mix or snack crackers, Mrs. Morley suggests. Replace disposables such as napkins, paper towels, foil pans and plastic spoons with cloth, glass and durable dishware which can be washed and reused. When possible, buy larger product sizes - a 16 ounce box of cereal instead of two, eight ounce boxes. Aluminum foil and plastic wrap should be used selectively because they cannot be degrade^ or recycled. Instead, use covered refrigerator dishes. Mrs. Morley advises. Make Own Pudding You can also cut both your food budget and the amount of clutter by making your own puddings and gelatins instead of buying ready-made products in in­ dividual metal cans or plastic dishes. When you have a choice, buy meats, fruits and vegetables in cardboard-like pulp trays instead of plastic tray’s. Also, moldedpulp egg cartons are more easily disposed of than plastic foam cartons. Extend the life span of packaging materials by reusing glass jars for storage and lef­ tovers. Keep foil pans from frozen dinners for later use, and reuse plastic bags. Participate in recycling programs, Mrs. Morley suggests. Glass should be rinsed, metal attachments removed, and the jars and bottles separated by the color, of the glass._____________ MAKING A NAMEPLATE-Students do many things in Bernie Oom’s F iberglass and Plastic class, and here Darwin Mead, freshman, son of Mrs. Ruth Mead, is engraving a plastic name plate.-Banner photo.

Sheep raisers and others in­ terested in sheep will have an opportunity to spend a little longer time studying the latest developments in their industry by attending a special short­ course at the Martin Public Schools at Martin. The course will meet from 7:30 to 10 p.m. on five consecutive Wednesday evenings beginning Jan. 5. Graydon Blank, specialist at Michigan State University who is heading up the course says that the 12 hours of instruction will allow time to cover many more of the new developments in sheep management than the usual two hour meeting or tour. Blank will be assisted by That’s what the Department of Natural Re­ sources’ Wildlife Division is shooting for to reverse the downward trend in Michigan's deer herd. It means the herd, now estimated at 400,000, has got to be more than doubled in the next 10 years. And that, frankly, is a mighty big order to fill. However, the DNR now has the financial thrust to go with its know-how to mount an accelerated pro­ gram of tree cuttings and other deer habitat improvements. As a starter, (616,000 has been funded for work on northern Michigan's deer range this year. Earmarkings from the state’s recently raised deer license fees should enable the DNR to plow about $1 million into this program after July 1, 1972. That figure is nearly 10 times greater than the amount allotted for the program last specialists from the Animal Husbandry Department and Veterinary College staff at MSU. A nominal charge will be made to cover cost of a special sheep producer's handbook and refreshments.

Besides undertaking selective cuttings on a large scale to produce more deer food, the DNR’s enormous new pro­ gram of "deerland farming" will be geared to stepping up controlled burns, commercial * timber harvests, and other efforts to provide whitetails with a "full cupboard." Much of this habitat work will be carried out op a year-round basis, instead of mainly dur­ ing the winter as it was in the past. If the program brings the state's deer herd up to the million mark by 1980, hunter take should also jump dramatically to 150,000 to 200,000 animals annually as against the present five-year average of 97,000. -Michigan Dept, of Natural Resources. • CHAIN GRINDING * ENGINE REPAIR Homelite 150 Saw With carrying case.

Kids Should Read Books Of “Challenge When your child is tired of playing, encourage him to read a book geared to his interest level. Your children's librarian should be able to suggest many. Sharing a book can be an ex­ citing experience for both of you, says Martha Kuhn. Extension Home economist from Barry County. Spme of the classics capture a cold’s imagination, bringing /few interests and experiences into his world What boy or girl could pass up the suspence in Robinson Crusoe or a trip to Treasure Island? Fascinate them with the adventures of the Swiss Family Robinson. or let them relive the Oklahoma land rush In Cimarron. Magazines, periodicals and newspapers can also make in­ teresting reading for a youngster. Mrs. Kuhn says But providing your child with good literature isn’t the complete answer, according to Mrs. Kuhn. Let him sit alone in a com­ fortable. quiet, well-lighted spot with few distractions. Ask him about the book as he finishes, or r^ad it yourself. If you find yourself reliving your own childhood, by all means show your excitement. As your child catches you enthusiasm, bes reading appetite can only in­ crease. Mrs Kuhn suggests a lest to determine what books your child might understand. Pick out a hundred words on any page and ask him to read them aloud If he misses more than five, the book is too hard. Two or three words missed indicates the book Is in his range.

Hick has carried on a 39-year love affair with what he calls “The King of Sports’’—football. That’s not exactly accurate Hanson actually began a trial courtship when he reported for football practice in 1928 to Coach Stanley Anderson at Arthur Hill /High School. Three seasons later, the name Hanson was listed on the All-Saginaw Valley League team as a burly 175-pound guard It was in 1931 that Hick decided football was his true love when he returned to Arthur Hill as an assistant coach to Charles (Bunnie) Grube. Since then, except for twd years, he has been teaching basic fundamentals to thousands of gridiron pupils. Hanson's first head coaching job came in 1933 at SS. Peter and Paul’s. He moved to St Andrew's for three years before returning to SS. Peter and Paul’s in 1937. College the Hard Way­ Eight years after he had graduated from high school in 1938. he decided that he would seek a college degree lo further his coaching career. After one year at Alma college, he tran­ sferred to Western Michigan University Natirally, he served as an assistant coach at both schools. Hanson entered military service in 1942 and served 37 months in North Africa. Italy and the Phillippines. earning the rank of Second Lieutenant During this time Hick did not give up his passion for football. He organized and coached teams known as the Iron Horsemen. Discharged in 1945, Hanson returned to Western Michigan to complete studies for his degree. During this time, he coached at Kalamazoo State High School. After graduation. Hick spent four years as football coach at Hastings High Returning to Sasinaw in 1951. he did not coach for two years Gene Glick lured Hick out of his brief retirement and he con­ tinued as an assistant at St. Andrew's until 1966. It was back toSS. Peter and Paul's for a year and then to St. Andrew's for two more before making his current stop at SS. Peter and Paul's where he is starting his third season of helping out Leo (Smokey) Boyd. Numerous changes in rules, teaching techniques, school philosophies and in environment navaLnot shaken Hick’s faith in football or boys Korpx Faith in Football.

A living denial of the old saying about being a Jack of all trades and a master of none. Hanson, in addition to his knowledge of football, is both a master steamfitter and plumber Since his early youth when he worked in machine shops, Hick has mastered both trades with the same determination and en­ thusiasm he has for football He now holds down the responsible 6 cyl., standard transmission, radio.

"Walk Right In”. "Let’s Take An OldFashioned Walk". We could go on and on. The point is this: think af all the walking you do. The thousands of steps you take each day. Probably walltag is the most physical activity you do. And look at the enormous pressure focused on the feet. Doesn't it make sense that such important agents as the feet deserve your utmost care? Have your shoes fitted by your experienced and interested shoe people.

Church and State Jefferson intersections is better than nothing, it still is no substitute for the Parking Mall arrangement tested in December. I'arallcl parking is definitely not popular with most people and limits the number of cars than can be accommodated in the central busines distnct If parking-meter income is a factor, the 90 degree arrangement could boost the potential "take" by at least 50 per cent, even allowing generous-sued lanes for parking. During the test run of the Mall, the 90 degree parking never had a fair test since none of the lanes were marked and so the parking pattern was never uniform, varying anywhere from 45-dqgree to straight in If the lanes are properly laid out. 90-degree parking offers many advantages in comparison with angle parking as well as much more flexibility. For example, with a straight in pattern, a driver can turn into any open space On either side of the street With angle parking, a motorist is restricted to one side of the street only Thus, if he found spaces on his right completely filled, he would normally have to make a four-block circle to change directions in order to take advantage of openings on the other side of the street With 90degree parking, a motorist can back out and turn for drive in either direction. Angle parking restricts you to one direction only. However, if the decision is for angle parking, and either with or without parking meters, we ran go along with that. The important thing is to get the Mall in operation again The city nerds it and there is no reason why a sensible agreement cannot be reached by the Council and the Chamber of Commerce as a representative of the business interests and. indirectly, at least, of people who come her^ to shop As mentioned above, the four-way stops on State Street at the Church and Jefferson intersections does make it a bit easier for pedestrians to cross the street but it does not slow down the general pace of traffic as the Mall arrangement did Traffic now moves along in a series of halts and jerks. Most motorists, at least the ones we have observed, do give pedestrians the right of way at the two in­ tersections, then zoom down the block at a fast pace for another quick stop and another fast getaway With the Mall arrangement and its slow, uniform pace of traffic combined with the very fine consideration that motorists gave to pedestrians, not only at the crossings, but anywhere in the block, both sides of the street were brought together as one unit. Crossings could be safely made, not only at the intersections, but anywhere within the Mall area That is as it should be People who used the Mall during its trial run were pleased and delighted with the arrangement. It made Hastings a much more pleasant place in which to shop An early editorial salute and congratulations to the Hastings Jaycees Although the National Jaycee Week has been set for Jan. 15th through the 21st, this fine and active local organization is ap­ preciated the year around Since it started here during the 1930's, the Jaycees have been active and concerned with projects of local interest and value. A drive to raise funds for a whirlpool hath for the Barry County Medical Facility, is the Latest example of the type of community-minded work the members have always sponsored It took more than a little nerve for the Jaycees to bring the New \ ork Company of "Jesus Christ, Super Star," here for an evening’s stand at a cost in the $3,000 range-especialiy when the production, itself, is so controversial, paving received both rave notices and criticism that has. at time, been outspokenly bitter. Which versioh is right7 Although we have not seen the play, it appears that there is no middle ground, in that it leaves one either enthused or totally disenchanted All this indicates that those who see the play here should make every effort to maintain an open mind and not prejudge‘the play on the basis of personal prejudices Whether we approve or disapprove, ’ Super Star ’ does reflect a point of view that is widely current in the United States and it should be of interest to find out what IV is all about. If one's own religious roots are firmly grounde d, a musical such as this should not be in the least upsetting Approaching it with an open mind, might well serve to give a more intelligent understanding of why the production has been so enthusiastically received by young men and women throughout the Nation. One doesn't have to agree with the "message" they read into it or the basis for their enthusiasm But it may be quite important for even the dissenters and critics to understand what the message is and why the musical has generated such an enthusiastic response. Maybe a production of this sort can be a vehicle for helping to bridge the "so-called'' generation gap If critics, most of whom are probably in the "older-age" group, would try to understand why the play generates so much enthusiasm, especially among younger people, and if these same young people would try to gain a sym­ pathetic comprehension of why many of those in the older age brackets may not respond to "Super Star", with similar enthusiasm, the basis could be laid for mutual understanding After all, mutual understanding is a two-way street We wish the Jaycees ail success with their ticket sale and hope they are able to.net a sufficient profit to enable them to pay the balance due on the whirlpool bath they have donated to the Medical Facility. j. Their motives in bringing "Super Star" here were of the best and their use of any and all proceeds certainly was inspired by a desire to be a service to the community.

The loyal group of volunteers consisting of Mrs. Virginia Stevens and her daughter, Virginia. Mrs. Bonita Lockwood, Mrs. Mildred Brandt, Mrs. Dorothy French, Mrs. Sadie Brewer, Mrs. Margaret Sleeper and Mrs. Agnes Shannon decorated the entire building before Christmas. They worked verry hard with the patients’ Christmas party, ■ transporting patients and helping patients open gifts, and many other duties that are required for the oc­ casion. For many years this group of ladies have been coming to the Facility every Friday morning to help the patients write letters and read to them, and visit. They have become part of the staff. Hastings Women’s Club members see to it that every one of the 141 patients receive a gift. This has been one of their worthy projects for many years. Lee Storkan donated six lovely Christmas trees that were distributed through out the building. Singers in the High School Choir presented their yearly Christmas program. The patients especially enjoy these young people. Many church groups, Campfire Girls and other organizations visit, send favors and sing carols. All of this generosity is greatly appreciated by the staff and patients. W Off!

A leadership club. A social club. Since incorporation into a club 32 years ago, the Hastings Jaycees have directed their efforts toward building a better community. The club has served its purpose in providing young men an opportunity to improve themselves through community leadership and involvement, such as entertainment, en­ couragement and fulfillment of innumerable social and in­ dividual needs. During the past fiscal year, June 1970 to June 1971, the Michigan Jaycees recognized the efforts of the Hastings chapter by ranking it in third place in state­ wide competition for evaluation of clubs. The Hastings club, graded on activities, community value and overall Jaycee club performance, lacked only 16 points from the first place award. Ted Egleston, Jaycee president, isn’t satisfied with the rating the club received. He has his sights aimed higher. “We placed third, not because We didn’t do all that was required,” he said, “but because we didn't report it right, We’re going to go stark crazy with paper work to get the number one spot this year.” If the awards rested entirely upon community activities, many people would agree the Hastings chapter would have no problems placing first, judging for their accomplishments in 1971. One of the big projects of the year was the. “Total In­ volvement” week in March, which included a donkey ’ basketball game between em­ ployees of the E.W. Bliss and Hastings Manufacturing Com- panies and a Country Western Show, featuring the Mack Vickery Show, from Nashville, Tenn. All profits went to the Handicapped Children’s Association. The Jaycee Auxiliary also raised money for the Association in April, by sponsoring a benefit dance. New Jaycee and Auxiliary officers were installed in June, when President Gordon Sheldon handed over the gavel to Ted Egleston. Annually, at this oc­ casion, the Jaycees host a club night for the outgoing president, which is their only investment in private parties. All other money earned goes toward community projects. Several Jaycee members helped keep peace in Hastings during the Centennial Week Tn June, when the posed as Keystone Cops. However their presence didn't hault the pie throwing. Each year in July the Jaycees help 10 children of any age have a happier summer, by sending them to a Special Education Camp, through the Handicapped Children’s Association. Other local youths, sponsored by the club, go to the state Jaycee tennis tournament. Friendly competition among golf addicts was heightened during the annual Jaycee Open Adult Golf Tournament in August, and adrenalin ran quickly through the veins of fans during the Jaycee sponsored Class D State Softball Tour­ nament in September. Help For Elderly Jaycees became interested in the needs of the elderly at the Barry County Medical Facility, and in October they announced they were purchasing the first whirlpool bath, special wheel The Hastings Manufacturing Company's “basketball" team defeated the E.W. Bliss “team” 14-8 in the Jaycee-sponsored donkey game in March. The chair and seat and hydraulic lift for the Facility. Special projects raised the money for the bath, which cost $2,167.50. Candy sales also brought money into the till, for the “Underprivileged Children’s Christmas Party” in December. The Jaycees also paid for a scholarship for the Pre-School project that month, which gave a child a term at nursery school, at a cost of $131 a term.

A Jaycee member worked on the Christmas Parade Planning Committee for the Chamber of Commerce in November. Others ran the “Still-in-the-Hill” for the Charlestown Park Folklife Festival and some started work on the Christmas float. Having activity supported legislation to make 18 tne legal age of majority in Michigan, the state Jaycee organization opened their ranks in November to 18 year olds, lowering the minimum age of membership from 21 to 18. Commenting on the new minimum age, President Egleston said there are now three 18 year old members in the local chapter. “The influx of community service ideas from this age group will be of great assistance to the local Jaycee chapter,” he said, “and we extend a hearty welcome to the future Jaycees of this age group.” The work on the Christmas Uniform Doner float, entitled “Gift of Christ­ First to Sign-Commissioner Michigan's Michigan mas", paid off for the Jaycees as .

Probably unlike any wav you’ve ever done it before. And. when you figure your own. you may be entitled to deductions you’re not taking and taking deductions you’re not entitled to. For instance, do you know all about deduc­ tions for child care or casualty losses? Or, that if your income increased over the last few years, you may save tax dollars by income averaging?** And even if you did, would you know how _ to go about “income averaging" to begin with? Probably not. And therms no reason why you should. After all, you’re an amateur when it comes to doing income tax. You see, when it comes to income taxes, amateurs should depend on H & R Block. We have over 6,000 conveniently located offices manned by thousands of specially trained personnel. They're warm and friendly people who are anxious to help you. They’ll sat you down over a free cup of coffee and show you some things about your income tax that you might never Rave known existed. Furthermore, if your return is audited we will accompany you, at no extra cost, to the Internal Revenue Service and explain how your re­ turn was prepared, even though we will not act as your legal repre­ sentative. This means that H & R Block is ready to offer you year ’round tax service for just one low fee a year, with no extra charge for audits and estimates. H & R Block’s charges start at $5 and the aver­ age cost was under $12.50 for the 7 million families we served last year. , Which is somewhat lees than what you paid. Not to mention the fact that aggravation isn’t tax deductible. And we are. DON'T LET AN AMATEUR DO H*R BLOCK'S JOB. H&R Block. Tke aoae tu pegk. OPEN DAILY - 12 NOON WISH 84—WooJIond 303 S.

This year will see a return of perch fishermen to Lake Michigan's breakwaters, predicts Dr. Wayne H. Tody, chief of the DNR’s Fisheries Division. "The year 1969 was the best spawning year for yellow perch in Lake Michigan in more than a decade,” said Tody. “And since these fish reach catchable size in three years, I predict that pier fishing next Summer will be delightful.” According to Tody, the comeback of perch is one of a series of events in the progressive restoration of Lake Michigan’s fishery. The first of these, he said, was the dramatic victory over the sea lampre. This made possible the introduction of salmon along with stepped-up plantings of Lake trout...

It appears as a misty haze around large manufacturing centers, where large factories belch smoke out into the air. The smoke then turns to gas, thus off-balancing the nitrogen-oxygen content of the air. This off-balance eventually kills life forms of all types and species, showing no mercy to anything, like the onslaught of an unconquerable army. But this monster can be stopped. There are systems which can be installed to eliminate the harmful gases in smoke that this monster must have in order to grow. People could become more careful about what they burn and where they burn it. We conld recycle the millions of cans and bottles that lay rotting around the coun­ tryside. We could stop dumping waste into our rivers, lakes and oceans. We could begin to respect life and stop killing the animals and fish, but. . . . 8 Real Discussion—Miss Janice Closson (extreme left) of the Hastings First United Methodist Church takes part in this discussion Saturday during the Contemporary Folk Musk Festival held at the church last weekend The festival brought together 131 boys and girls and 24 staff members from other communities and 28 local staff School Director Wins Award Duane Peterson.

What­ ever confronts us in our daily round is the substance out of which we wfave our “philosophy of life." But merely to have an isolated thought or an opinion does not help us find a foundation'bn which to base our entire lives. We need encouragement and guidance. The message of the Church has been, through the ages, concerned primarily with the deeper meaning of life. It lends wisdom to those who are striving to relate themselves to the total pattern and pur­ pose of human existence. It helps us maintain a reasonable stability amid the flux of human endeavor and events. It helps us relate the totality of all that has been, is now and ever shall be.

First Notional Bank and Trust Co. of Michigan Member FDIC Dokoo Brooch �Barry Woman On National Church Board Mrs. James G. Crosby, 336 Middle Street. Nashville, vice president of the West Michigan Conference of the Women’s Society of Christian Service of the United Methodist Church and wife of the pastor of the United Methodist Church of Nashville, has been selected to serve on the Board of Missions Women’s Division Planning Committee for “one new inclusive women’s organisation” for mission in the United Methodist Church. She is one of 24 women chosen from across the country to make up the committee. The national women’s policy­ making body in the United Methodist Church has made what it considers a fundamental and far-reaching decision on organization and structure at its annual meeting It is a decision that could affect 36,500 local women's units, with about 1,600,000 members in the 50 states. The Women's Division of the United Methodist Board of Missions voted unanimously that “there be in the United Methodist Church one new inclusive organization for women, with a new name," this to replace the two present women’s organizations, the Women's Society o( Christian Service and The Wesleyan Service Guild, the latter being traditionally con­ sidered the organization for United Methodist employed women. The action is to be put into legislative form by the com­ mittee of which Mrs. Crosby has been selected a member, for Eresentation to the United lethodist General Conference in Atlanta next April. The con­ ference, the agnomination's highest legislative body, must approve the recommended legislation for it to become church law. , The first meeting of the Women's Division Planning Committee was to be held in New York City Jan. 8 and 9 and the second meeting in Dallas, Texas. Jan. 15 and 16. The third meeting will be Feb. 26 and 27. The task of this committee at these three meetings will be to help determine the procedure by which a new name may be chosen and to describe in general what its scope and purpose will be. In subsequent months the com­ mittee will work on details of the internal form and function of the new women’s organization Methodist Church RESOLVED: 10 HEAL DIVISION AMONG uan. o-u nciu vicii iu right) Neil Singles, Adam Of­ fenbecker, Jeff Stamm, William Edwards, and Alfred Lowe.— Banner photo.

On rural routes, snow should be kept away from the boxes in such a manner as to allow the carrier to drive his vehicle up to the box in the usual manner. This requires that snow be removed for a distance on either side of the approach to the box as well as in front of the box City postal customers should see that walks, steps, drives and any other areas where their foot carrier must walk to deposit the mail are kept free of ice and snow. In the past, failure to keep approaches cleared promptly al ter heavy snow has temporarily prevented carriers from making deliveries. “We are sure that most customers can see the problems confronting mail carriers because of the ice and snow. We will appreciate your help in reducing the cause of these hazards,” Thompson said HASTINGS WCTV TO MEET The Hastings WCTU will meet Tuesday. Jan. 18, at 1:30 with Mary Walton at 812 E. Bond Street.

C.----------------------- Although the Parking Mall idea is still alive and breathing, it does seem to be creeoina toward a solution at an ir.crediblv slow o«*ce. The trial run of the Mall during December won universal approval especially on the part of those who came here to trade. People were delighted with the parking arrangement and at the slow pace of traffic that made it so much easier - and pleasant - to cross from one side of Slate Street to the other. While the Mall was in operation, motorists seemed to be much more considerate of pedestrian traffic than when the State Street ■•speedway'* was going full Mast. Although the present temporaryarrangement of four way stops at the State Street-Church and StateStreet-Jefferson intersections is better than nothing, it should not be considered the final answer. The overall pace of traffic is cut to a considerable extent and most drivers are giving pedestrians (he right of way at the main in­ tersections. However, what happens is that many a motorist attempts to make up for lost time by fast acceleration down the block ana a quick stop at the next four way intersection. Thus street traffic moves along at an uneven pace rather than at the slow and steady ’ pace observed by all drivers when the Mall was in operation. Also, we believe that the angle-to-straight-in parking arrangement in effect \4iile the Mall was in operation, proved much more satisfactory than the parallel parking now in effect - an arrangement that never has been popular Since the Mall arrangement was an experiment to be tested for a short time only, no money was spent in marking out the stalls for parking As a result, there was some confusion and variation. The . tendency was to follow the pattern set by the first car parked. If it was straight in, as intended, other cars parked accordingly. Or. if the first car parked at an angle, others followed the lead. Thus, within any one block you could usually find a mixture of 90-degree and angle (larking. Even so. however, drivers were much more satisfied with .this arrangement than with the normal parallel plan. Parking mrter revenue, although not a major item in city finances, is an important factor. That being the case, the city could greatly increase its “take" by going to either angle or 90-degree parking along State Street between Michigan and Church Streets and install the increased number of meters required. Our own preference would be for 90-degree parking with generous space allowed for the stalls such as Fool Center had on its west side parking lot before the new addition was completed. There was never a complaint here about difficulty in parking and enough room allowance was made for the width of the car plus an added strip at each side so that doors could be swung open without danger of hitting the side of a car in the adjacent stall. If the above system were follbwed on State Street, more cars could be accommodated with a corresponding increase in parking meter revenue and the average driver would find the system at least as convenient and probably even more so than angle parking. . We also prefer 90-degree parking because it give a degree of flexibility totally lacking in either parallel or angle parking. With 90degree parking (assuming the stalls are properly laid out) a driver going in either direction along the street can take advantage of 4 vacant stall on either side of the street. Likewise, in backing out. a driver can.swuig jn either direction. Does this increase the possibility of accidents? Facts-and ex­ perience indicates the contrary. With the slower pace of traffic, drivers seem to be more courteous to others ■ an emergency stop can be made more quickly, safely and in a much sborterdisiance. . Even during the Mall experiment when the lack of marked lanes caused some confusion and when drivers were unfamiliar with the new arrangement, there were no crashes. In fact, drivers were not only considerate of those using the regular cross walks, but also those who jay walked in between. In our opinion, the convenience of shoppers should have first consideration in plans for any developments along State Street. Proper development of a Mall with low speed limit in the area and either angle or preferably 90-degree parking wouM-provide most of the answers. We can't help but wonder - Why all the foot-dragging and why so much "tossing of the ball" between one group and the other? Isn’t it possible to come up with a decisive answer when the essential facts were so well demonstrated during the Mall ex­ periment0 Let’s get on with the job! We commend Secretary of Stale Richard Austin for initiating a program aimed at getting problem drivers off the road. At last, one important public official has had the courage to attack the problem of “thenut behind the wheel." For too long, politicians all down the line have avoided this issue - probably because it involves people - and people vote. Much attention has been given by politicians to improve traffic safety via the imposition of stricter standards in the manufacture of automobiles and tires. This is correct up to a certain point In that it forces manufacturers to lake steps they should have taken on their own. For example, it is ridiculous that the “protective" bumper arrangement on even expensive cars are so ineffective that a crash at less than five-mites-per-hour can cause body damage amounting to hundreds of dollars. .T Many of the new devices dreamed up by Washington bureaucrats, will not, from a practical standpoint, improve overall safety, but will greatly increase the cost of the product to the con­ sumer. Some of the ideas are absolutely ridiculous. The so-called “safety bag," for example, if it ever is finally authorized by Washington will result in more damage and injuries than it will prevent. We. ourselves, would never drive a car containing one of those tricky devices, nor ride in a car in which one had been installed. However, attaching the traffic safety problem from this angle is popular with maiy politicians because it involves attacks against major industrial concerns and this is usually good for popular ap­ proval among substantial elements of the public. But it does nothing to solve the real heart of the problem - the nut behind the wheel. * So. we hope that Secretary of State Austin has set a pattern that will receive favorable attention by those in political office. He merits all the support he can get - including public support In our opinion the much publicized Jack Anderson Papers written on the basis of information leaked to him by unknown but obviously high placed government officials concerning the “Secret-sensative" India Pakistan policy documents did no constructive good either for the United States or the profession of journalism. Claims that Mf Kissinger deceived the U.S. public by saying in a press briefing that the U.S. policy was not anti-Indian are not sub­ stantiated by the overall facts. There is a world of difference between disagreeing with an Indian policy and being anti-Indian in a general sense. The large amount of American economic aid going to India at the time the war erupted is evidence enough that U.S. policy was definitely not anti-Indian. just as Kissinger claimed. The documents quoted by Mr Anderson are mainly interesting • THE H4RTF4RS BANNER :. Jrtttry St.' Ifrt for the inside view they provide of the working level conduct of foreign policy. Differences of opinion were revealed. This, however, is understandable when one considers the complex nature of the India-Pakistan dispute. In view of all these complications, U.S. policy was conducted in a reasonably straightforward and defensible manner. Our purpose, the documents reveal, was to prevent the animosities between the two sides from breaking into open warfare. In this we failed to the annoyance of the Indian government. Despite this failure, it is difficult to justify claims that the U.S. should have supported India’s military conquest. Hasn’t Uncle Sammy had his fingers burned badly enough in Viet Nam to serve as an everlasting warning not to get militarily involved in the local affaris of foreign nations? It can always be argued that if the U.S. had moved earlier and more forcefully to apply pressure to Pakistan, much of the tragedy might have beeA avoided. This is a judgement that has the advantage of “hindsight" and also implies that the U.S. had more power and influence to cool down this volatile situation than, in fact, it actually possessed. It may be that the main significance of the Anderson papers is in pointing out the need for greater precaution in protecting sensitive documents involving our relationships with foreign governments. A disturbing thing about the Anderson Papers is, that if a Washington correspondent can get access to material of such a confidential and sensitive nature, conditions may be ripe for a foreign agent to score an equal degree of success in filching secrets that could be of real danger to the United States. Publication of articles such as the Anderson Papers is an en­ couragement to every disgruntled official in the Federal government lo undercut the administration via the public press. Such a trend, if continued, could lead to disruption that would benefit no one. What responsibleMndividual would accept public service knowing that views and opinions expressed in private during the involved and delicate process of policy making could be leaked to the press that very day by aAdisgruntled official for broadcast to the world, in­ cluding comments and conclusions, by a Washington correspondent not in possession of the full facts of the case. If the lime comes whqn a highly placed public official finds himself completely at odds with administration policy, he should resign and fight openlv from the outside rather than use his position as a cover for fifth column activities directed at undercutting from within the administration he is supposed to serve. ’ Reporters, we believe, should not lend their own standing and prestige to that sort of action and should refuse except under the rarest of circumstances, to give space to individuals who, no matter what their intentions may be. are in fact, traitors. / The Anderson Papera revealed the not too surprising fact that there was a division of opinion within the government on the IndiaPakistan question. The policy that emerged did not achieve the desired results. For the time being, at least, this must be classed as a failure. However, the spotlight of history may very well find that the inability of the U.S. to dictate a settlement of the dispute was inevitable and it was wise not to get heavily involved in a situation where satisfactory answers to complex and volatile situations simply did not exist. Voice Of The People To the Editor: I was very much surprised to see an article written by Mr. and Mrs. Wm. C. Cramer contain so many errors 1. Baltimore Township was never a 'part of Hastings Township. In fact, it was a part of Johnstown Township from the time that township was set off from Barry Township in 1837-38. Baltimore was set off in 1849 (see page 88 of Laws of 1849) from Johnstown. 2. The first settler in Baltimore Township arrived in 1842 settling on Section 15. Others arrived in 1845, 1846, and several in ’49. 1 In the'immediate area of the Cramer farm, Eli Eaton was in residence on land patented April 28, 1849. Benjamin C. Cramer's first patent was dated Jan. 15, 1850. 4. "The community of ‘Baltimore* was at this crosswooded road for many years,” is not correct. Baltimore was located at the present day site of Dowling. A Post Office has existed at that location since May 30,v 1850, and was known as Baltimore until March 16, 1880 when the name became Dowling. The intent of this letter is not malicious but merely as a reminder to all who engage in this type of work that it is necessary to check the original records against the "remem­ bering” of relatives and friends. Sincerely, Charles O. Harthy To the Editor: The citizens of Hastings have received their tax notices, and many of us wonder why there is a collectors fee. Is this some Ar­ chaic Method that has not been removed from the book? The treasurer receives a regular salary so why should she receive Will you please publish an explanation of this so that we will know the reason for it. Yours truly, Otto Brown (Editor’s Note: The collection fee on Hastings tax notices does not go to the treasurer, but to the City. When the new Hastings Charter became effective or. July i, 1966, it gave the Council authority to set salaries, ineluding the salary of the treasurer who had formerly received the collection fee. The fee helps cover the cost involved in collecting taxes.) To the Editor: The placing of bombs in banks last week was a very violent thing and it should not be used as a means of effecting political change. It is wrong to place people in danger and destroy property. It is also terribly wrong for our government to use weapons like quava and pineapple bombs which destroy and maim only people. We are now dropping a bomb in Viet Nam that is equivalent to a small atomic bomb. We are waging an escalating airVar which ts becoming more mechanized. As is usual in war, the people suffering the most are innocent people and children trying only to make a living day to day to day. The way to end a war is to leave it and leave a corrupt Saigon government to stand or fall as it will. Kathleen Villaire To the Editor: The white American heritage is a history of a people who have lost the true meaning of life. In our history we have put money above the worth of human life. We butchered the Indian to possess his land. We enslaved the Mackman to put more money in our pockets. We cut down great forests for their lumber and farmed the land without care for conservation in order to acheive higher profits. We made nearly extinct many animals such as the buffalo because of the money in their skins, while leaving the meat to rot under the sun. The almighty dollar became more importantJ|ian the wonders and balance in nature, and even more important than human life. Today we are still the same. We commit genocide on the Vietnamese, Cambodian, and Laotian peoples We sell guns to Pakistan. We forget our brothers and sisters trapped in poverty. We pollute and destroy the very life giving Earth. All in the quest for the almighty dollar. It is time we relearned the true worth of life; time we have lived at peace with our fellow man and with nature; lime we embraced all people as our brothers and sisters; time to live in harmony with nature; time to understand that life is not a dollar bill. Life is lhe wind blowing through your hair, grass growing under your feet, making love, raising children, loving, sharing, en­ joying what god has given us. A MEMBER OF THE WRL.

The victory increased Hastings edge in the past S3 games to five. Hastings has had 39 wins since 1946 (the rivalry started long before that) and Charlotte has had 24. Hastings Jerry Kessenich and Charlotte's Rocco Moore went into that game tied for West Central conference scoring honors with its points each, and both had a 23.6 snooting average. Both athletes are juniors with great prospects Our Coach Ernie Strong said he thought Rocco was the best big man he had seen in the West Central In the past five years. Rocco pumped in 38 points while Jerry scored 23 last week. Coach Strong, disappointed the previous week when the Saxons were outhustled at Lansing Waverly, said the Charlotte game was a crucial one, and that his charges got back on the right track. "Now we should keep this winning momentum." Coach Strong added.

These high school age girls, besides having to find time for their own homework, must also stay up most of the night to take care of their younger brothers and sisters, who in some in­ stances are still infants. Of course some parents have good excuses for leaving all of these responsibilities on their high school age girls, such as if they have to work niahts in order to support their family. But many more so-called parents simply use their teenage girls as an excuse to escape from their responsibilities. Such long hours can have serious effects on the girl's health and the many responsibilities can drive a girl to tears ...AT WORK AT PENNEY’S My coop job is at the J.C. receiving freight, unpacking it and putting if in stock But it doesn’t end there; there are many odd jobs that must be done every day I've done everything from sweeping the carpet to It really makes you fee) good when you think back about the job you do and how the company depends upon you to get that job done I work for a man who thinks you are important.

Many students wiU begin new classes, but Principal Gerrit Klomp said that semester changes will be minor. "We can't change horses in the middle of the stream," he said. "At the beginning of the year the enrollment cards were sent to Grand Rapids to fix the schedules with the least number of con­ flicts." The only other way to do it is to send the schedules to a computer in California, he said. "The cost then would be about four times as much." Klomp added. The present cost is 65 cents. The main changes in^classes from the. first and second semester are in the English and vocational education depart­ ments. The reason is that these departments have more classes with more than one section than other departments do. By matching classes of one section with others, such as Woods J and Metals I, a great deal of con­ fusion can be saved for student and teacher alike.

Lakewood Yearbook Almost Completed By Pal Blessing Homecoming pages eight and nine of the 1972 Vahalla Lakewood's school annual have been sent to a publishing com­ pany in Dallas. Texas for processing. The pages are similar to last year's and will be printed in four colors. Hie dominant picture is a 8 x 10 inch picture of Sheryl Wilson holding her bouquet of roses The picture was cropped to fit the center portion of the two pages. "We went to a new company to process the pictures,’ Fred Dickinson, the annual advisor commented, "and they do an excellent job." The two pages had to be laid out with color prints the exact size. "The company will shoot the whole page, rather than the in­ dividual picture, thus saving us several hundred dollars," Dickinson said. The annual staff, headed by BUI Smith and Luanne Welch, will soon pick three dates when the annual will go on sale. These dates will probably fall during February and March.

Movable Room Aids Crowded Classes By Bob Brewer A new portable classroom is being constructed at Delton Kellogg high school alongside the two existing portable classrooms. With the advent of the new year came new students and the present facilities do not provide enough room for the eighth grade class, which seems to be larger than the average class As a result, the administration has found it necessary to register more students for classes then they normally do. The new portable classroom will be occupied by a sixth grade class, and an eighth grade class will use the vacated room. To fill the teaching space opened by the new addition, the school has hired a Delton graduate, Michael Wertman of Pine Lake, to teach the sixth grade class. The school has purchased the unit for a total price of $13,230. which includes construction costs.

JEFFERSON MMBBBMSaMaMI THE HASTtfids BAN-SER .... .Janntry 20, 1972 d i 17 �Small Businesses Relieved Of Posting Base Prices The Browns To Celebrate Jnbiloe By Patricia O'Brien Some Hastings retailers who have not yet posted freeze-period prices Were saved from possible fines by a Price Commission ruling Saturday The commission said businesses with less than $200,000 annual sales would not be required to post prices in a prominent position in their stores This ruling does not completely negate the work of the majority of 12 local merchants interviewed recently during a survey who had complied with the previous posting ruling because the small retailer still must have the freeze-period prices readily available to customers who request them. Thus, those stores which have not yet completed a list of the 40 items that had the largest dollar sales volume during the past year must still do sd. Only two stores had not compiled such lists when originally checked, because of incomplete knowledge of the Internal Revenue Service requirements. A third merchant, Wayne Pierce, owner of Wayne’s Shoe Store, posted his prices after a visit from an I.R.S. agent who would visit Hastings again in 10 days to be certain the prices were posted. Pierce said. “He said we must either post or pay the fine.’' The posting requirement Vent into effect Jan. 2. but the Those found in violation of the posting rule were given a war­ ning, if the agent felt the retailer Grace Period Over The‘10 day grace period ended Tuesday, and I .R S agents will again be checking stores with annual sates of over $200,000. Several stores, including Sears, Penney's, Gittleman’s, Ben Franklin’s and Clinton Discount have price books or listings posted which were sent from their main business offices Many of these stores also have signs informing people they may inquire about ceiling prices and request additional information about any items not listed in the books. "We feel that cooperating with this program is the way to stop inflation," Al Fuller, manager of Penney’s said, “and we’re happy to do so." Few questions have been asked by customers about base price information, according to store managers, and some felt it was an unnecessary burden upon small businesses The recent a similar opinion among goyiemment officials. “There was nothing to be gained by not complying with the posting requirements,'' Pat Hodges, owner of Hodges Jewelry said. He has had a sign on the wall since Nov. 15 telling people they can inquire about any prices and his base prices were posted by the Jan. 2 deadline. Jim Jackson, manager of Kroger’s, said that base price information was temporarily available at the managers office. About 10,000 grocery prices were computerized at the general offices in Grand Rapids This does not fulfill the I.R.S. requirement of posting prices / “prominently”, but Jackson was awaiting word from Grand Rapids about where to put the price book because he feared kids might steal it. Theft Feared A warning from Willard Lawrence, president of Felpausch, that theft of price books bad occurred in some store, to chain their price book near his office We re afraid even our com­ petitors would come in and walk off with the book,"he said. Spartan Stores, with which Felpausch is associated, made price lists books available to all 450 member outlets in Michigan nearly two months ago. The book shows the item, the suggested Mail price and has a column for the retailer to lot in his base price at the time of the freeze. ”We had a girl conform the book to our prices,” Colvin said. According to a Price Com­ mission economic stabilization pamphlet sent to The Banner from the Internal Revenue Service in Grand Rapids, what must be posted are the freeze­ period prices, the legally per­ ,missible ceilings that existed on goods during the 9O-day wagepcfce freexe froln Aug. 15 to Nov. 13. Post 40 Items The I.R.S. spokesman in Grand Rapids said that if customers discover the price increase on offset by cost increases, he may file a complaint with the I.R.S in Grand Rapids or Battle Creek. Those retailers who willingly violate these regulations may be subject to a fine of not more than $5,000 for each violation, ac­ cording to the Price Commission To honor the 25th wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. George HL Brown, there will be an open heuse at their home, 2049 N.

Brown Gets Prison Term - Handing down a sentence designed to protect society. Circuit Judge Richard-RobinsonW'riday,, Jan^ 21. sentenced Robert Jay Brown, 32, to serve from 45 to 60 years in prison for the Nov. 25,1970, murder of Mrs. Shirley (Kathy) Woods, 22, at her Wall Lake home. Judge Robinson said he could sentence Brown to life im­ prisonment, but in second degree murder he would become eligible for parole in about 13 years. ’‘Frankly, this prospect frightens me,” Judge Robinson said. "I don’t think that rehabilitation is going to be effected by confining you. But I think that you, and I think you probably recognize this, are a hazard to society and will be until you reach an age where your sex drives no longer rule your conduct.” Judge Robinson said he had examined a lengthy report on Brown. He told nim: "I have examined your pattern of behavior over the years from the time, I believe, when you were 13 years old. I have observed the way you have imposed your sexual desires on others. And I noticed the circumstances surrounding the recent killing; with its sexual overtones. “I note you are now 32." Judge Robinson continued. “And this offense was commited somewhere in the neighborhood of a year after you were released from confinement. I have to believe that you are not capable of being rehabilitated." ~ • Brown, who had pleaded guilty Dec. 6 to second degree murder, was asked by Robinson if he had anything to say before sentencing. Brown said: "Seems kind of senseless to say. I’m sorry. It doesn t change anything, though. But I am sorry. My deepest sympathy goes to Mr. Shirley Woods—I know he suffered most—to his family and my wife’s family. That’s about all I can say," Brown concluded. Brown was arrested about 8:30 p.m. last June 18 by State Police Detective Robert E. Golm of the Wayland post after a long, thorough investigation by him and other State Police and Barry County Deputies lAarry Gay and Jerry Plank. Brown was the last to be checked of 35 or 40 persons who had purchased .22 ammunition in a local store. Detective Golm and the other officers continually attempted to fit bits of evidence together, and last March The Banner published a picture of the type of gun which experts believed was used in putting three bullets into Kathy's head. The gun was a Remington Nylon (plastic) 66 semi-automatic .22 rifle. Kathy was a pretty 1966 graduate of Delton High School. Before Brown was returned to the Eaton County jail at Charlotte Friday, he was given an opportunity to visit with his wife.

No Opposition At Nashville At Nashville those who have filed petitions for the March 13 election are: For president, Ben Kenyon; trea, Kathleen Kick el; clerk, Ada Skedgell; trustees, George Frith, who is running for the seat held by Don Skedgell who declined to run, Harole Norris, and Gerald Kent, and for assessor, Justin Cooley. With the exception of Mrs. Nickel, all were elected last year on the Republican ticket, Mrs. Nickel was a Democrat can­ didate. Others on the council who have another year to serve -are Fredrick Corkins, Leo Frith and Townships and towns have been warned to continue serious discussions on ways to solve the ambulance problem throughout, Barry County. Thursday, Jan. 20, county commissioners delayed—' but did not permanently solve—the ambulance situation. Commissioners set aside 825,000 to be used in assisting local units of government in subsidizing ambulance operations through the end of this calendar year. Ambulance contracts expire June 1. Finance Chairman Monty Bennett said no specific use for the $25,000 was determined. The "emergency ambulance funds” will be loosely earmarked for aiding townships and cities in securing am­ bulance service, according to Bennett. Originally the county had indicated that due to austerity measures no financial assistance for ambulance service would be available after the June 1 contract expiration date. However, the county ended 1971 in the black by some $58,000, thanks mainly to the. receipt of approximately $56,000 in government matching funds from the lagoon system at the Barry Medical Facility. * The rest of the grant money was earmarked for the Courthouse and grounds budget and is to be used for such purposes as renovating the old jail building and blacktopping the parking lot and driveway at the new jail lock-up and Sheriffs headquarters. The vote on the ambulance fund was 6-3 with Commissioners Bender, Lenz and Palmer voting no. All nine Commissioners present voted yes on the Courthouse and grounds appropriation. Also receiving unanimous support was adoption of a plan which calls for an 11-member Board of Commissioners in the future. The new re-apportionment plan calls for Thornapple Township to have a Commissioner of its own. Yankee Springs and Orangeville Town­ ships will be grouped together; Prairieville will be combined with the southern half of Barry Township along present precinct lines; and Hope Township will be joined with the northern half of Barry Township. Al) other districts will remain as they are. The plan as adopted by commissioners and certified by County Clerk William Cridler was delivered to Stale Elections Director Bernard Apol on Friday^ In other business Thursday, the board approved of $1,042.90 payment for 1972 dues to the Grand Valley Watershed Courvil and the $2,250 dues to the Michigan Association of Counties. The board also approved several changes to the Barry County Zoning Ordinance. The board made the $1,250 quarterly payment for the Barry County Extension Unit of the Kalamazoo Child Guidanc&Clinic which handled 59 different cases during the last three months of 1971. The sheriff’s department collected $9,867.88 in 1971, including $3,978 in fees, $1,208.25 in mileage collected on serving papers. $1,557.08 in gas tax refund, $217 in bogt inspections at $1 each, and Barry GOP To Honor Congressman Brown .

Smith stated that the change in the sign-up period is being made to permit producers and officials time to evaluate information from a special Jan. 27 Farmers Planting Intentions Report. ASCS offices throughout the State have completed mailing notices and program information to all eligible farmers. These notices contain the preliminary payment rates for feed grain and other basic farm data. With the change in the sign-up period farmerswill now have more time to evaluate the changes in the 1972 program and determine the extent they wish to participate. The Agricultural Act of 1970, which established the set-aside concent, and is now beginning its second year, opened the way for major changes in cropping patterns across the Nation. Smith said. This is because producers have more freedom to determine how to best use their land, labor and capital resources than they had under strict acreage allot­ ments. Only 10 percent of U.S. farmers planted according to allotments and historic bases last year, the remaining 90 percent changed their cropping .patterns A campaign Io raise money and help the ecology is planned by the Barry HI Service Club. Members are having a glass and paper drive to raise fnads for a trip to Colorado or Maine next Summer. They will be at the Community Building Saturday, Jan. 29, from I1 a.m. to 2 p.m. to receive glass and paper.

C.------------------------It appears that the Mall situation here has reached dead center. “No one wants to see the project dropped but no one has come forth with a definite proposal Shoppers were enthusiastic about the arrangement during the trial run in December; merchants up and down the street favor the idea and the City Council is not hostile to the project t Hie main “road block*’ is the lack of a definite proposal to put before the Council—A proposal that will have the backing of such groups as The Chamber of Commerce, merchants, the Planning Commission, etc Nothing really complicated is involved. It is anparant that the Council for good reason, will insist on the use of parking meters. However, with either an angle or a 90 degree pattern, there will be more meter capacity along State Street than there is now Potential revenue can thus be boosted accordingly, If the 9Odegree lanes are laid out properly, there will be little difference in parking capacity between this and the angle parking arrangement Personally, we favor, the 90<iegree system on account of the greater flexibility it gives motorists driving into the business district to .shop However, either arrangment would be a definite im­ provement over the present parallel system and a choice between the above two plans should not be a stumbling block The Mall idea proved its worth during the test period and now should be made permanent. , It is our understanding the present four-way stop signs are the Slate-Church and the State-Jefferson intersections are soon to be replaced with over head fpur-way-stop lights This will be an im­ provement However, it should be kept in mind that this four-way stop arrangement is no substitute for a Mall. It has succeeded in slowing down the pace of traffic as motorists approach the crosswalks and pedestrians can now cross the street in greater safety. But the available parking spaces are Just as limited and just as inconvenient to use as before Many who criticize the City Council for failure to get things done, possibly are not aware that any action taken must of necessity be limited bv the sum total of tax funds and other incidential revenues available. Each year, the procedure is to list all projects that should receive attention—and then trim, item by itemi to bring expenditures in line with revenue. If repairs are not immediately made on a stretch of sidewalk or a block of well-worn paving or blacktop that needs attention, lack of action results from lack of funds not lack of awareness on the part of the Council. . Also, it should be kept in mind that the pay received by corn­ oilmen is not. in itself, a great attraction Quite the contrary. On a per hour basis, the pay would be but a fraction of the minimum rate set by government for business and industry Most councilmen, we believe, serve from a sense of civic duty, pride in the community and con­ viction that they can render useful service to the city. Hastings has been fortunate over the years to have attracted honest and well-qualified individuals to seats on the City Council What about the people who would lease or purchase these > units? Does it not deny them the opportunity to live in a modern apartment? We have seen a few property owners oppose this type of construction, but does not a person who leases or rents have rights as well? Does not the opposition border on bigotry, snobbishness and discrimination’’ For I heard one say who attended the Council meeting. “We don’t want that kind of person living next to us.” Let’s oc fair Maybe property owners get the idea-renters are slum dwellers because the City Council and a few property owners will not allow anything that is modem to be built and renters have no choice. I believe the units are good for Hastings and it certainly will give the Hastings merchants and the city of Hastings added revenue. Should I lay my employees off? Should they join the ranks of the unemployed or should the City of Hastings untie the strangle hold they have, choking the very life of the community they pretend to protect? We bear much today about working within the systems of Government But can we do anything within the system? These apartment units are a demand item. Ten units would be rented before I could get them built. Can the City Council respond to the needs of the renter?

Mr. Nixon’s words alone are of peace, forgiving, goodwill; his actions are of war. revenge, hatred In Asia our leader spread the Christmas message by intensifing the bombing of North Vietnam and continuing the bombing of Loas. Whether Washington admits it or not, bombs dropped result in people crippled and killed. Those crippled and killed are usually civilians old men, women and children. Is this destruction and murder we commit in Southeast Asia the true expression of those words forgiving.. goodwill. peace” that Mr. Nixon used so freely? No! Once again Nixon speaks of wonderful things and opes the opposite of what he says. Now I ask. when is the President going to stop his lies and double talk? When is he going to keep his promise made on March 5, 1968: to "end the war." The North Vietnamese want to end the war, as shown in the 7 Doint Peace Proposal The South Vietnamese civilians want an end to the war, as shown in the People’s Peace Treaty The U.S. people want out of Vietnam, as shown in the many anti-war protests. But it seems that Mr. Nixon is not ending the war. Sure the ground troops are coming home, but U.S. air power is higher than it ever was; noth Vietnams. lx»s and Cambodia are now all targets of U.S. air raids ; the once nuetral Cambodia is now war tom; the death toll of civilians and all soldiers except U.S. troops is still rising; the CIA is still supporting operations in Thialand, Loss, Cambodia and Vietnam; South Vietnamese civilian opposition to U.S. presence is still growing; the Vietnamese economy and powers of production have been ravaged and destroyed by Vietnam!ration and resettlement of population (creation of Vietnamese city slums) ; in short the U.S. is still as involved as it ever was and looks like it will never get out of Vietnam When is our President going to listen to the demands and needs of the people and get us out of Vietnam? I am convinced that as long as Mr Nixon is President. U.S. dollars and resources will flow into Vietnam and keep the bloodshed continuning.

I suggest you ask that person whether he or she ever accepted any dollar in exchange for a product or service, or ever gave a dollar in exchange for a product or service. If so, I contend that that person is a hypocrite for demeaning this tool of exchange, this preserver of life, the American dollar Has anyone ever considered what money is? Money is the product of human effort. A dollar, or any other form of currency, is worthless unless someone has created a value for that money. Whether it be a Kllon of gasoline or a loaf of »ad. the conscientious human effort required to produce It is what the dollar represents. It is true that a dollar can be stolen, or can be acquired at the expense of human (or animal, or plant) life. But this does not make the dollar, or those of us who honor it, evil. Indeed, even the thief or exterminator thus acknowledges the value the dollar represents, for he is depending on those who produce to accept the dollar as a token of honor in exchange for their ef­ fort. The person who referred to himself (or herself) as *'a member of the WRL” made the statement " . . .Life is not a dollar bill." As I stated before, the dollar is a token on conscientious human effort. Try to live without effort. Anyone who Ilves without making a conscientious effort to earn his own daily bread is depending upon someone else to earn it for him. And the person who does earn his own daily bread, and that of his less productive neighbors, is the person who knows that life does depend on the effort represented by that sacred token, the almighty dollar. Sincerely, Frederick G. Schantz Richard J. Cotter was elected a director of the Hastings Mfg. Company at the firm’s board of directors meeting January 18th. Stephen I. Johnson, president, announced that Cotter fills the vacancy created by the recent retirement of Stanley Cummings.

Ransom. President of the Hastings Savings and Loan Association, said at the annual meeting which was held Tuesday, January 18. In the institutions annual report he also predicted continued favorable savings flow’s and ample supply of mortgage money for the year ahead. In his report, Mr. Ransom stated that the Hastings Association made 193 mortgage loans in the amount of $2,950,209 00. for a net increase of 81,457,494 00 during this past year This represents an increase qf mortgage loans of 17*i percent Savings was increased by 21 percent, or a total increase of mortgage loans of 17ii percent. Savings was increased by 21 percent, or a total increase of $1,981,976 00, and interest paid to savers was over $411,009 00. Assets rose to the record figure of $10,016,336.00. The future looks even better. Mr Ransom said. The Hastings Association has purchased the Waters Clothes Shop building and intend to build a new fireproof structure to interlock into the present savings and loan plant so that they may service the public easier and better than they nave done in the past This work is to begin as of February 1st, and to be completed before June 1st. With the purchase of three Burroughs “on-line" teller terminals with direct lines going into the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago, audit controls will be at a maximum of strength, and federal examinations will be easier and less costly. Furthermore, Mr Ransom stated, this set-up will make it possible for us to pay "day in to day out" interest to our savers and transmit time elapsed will be a matter of seconds. One’s savings deposit or withdrawal will be a matter of seconds instead of an overnight print out as is experienced in some places These machines are the very latest in the Burroughs line. In his report, Ransom said that 1971 was the greatest year nationally, as well as locally, in the history of the savings and loan business. Late in 1971 the savings and loan business passed the $200 billion mark in assets nationally It took 132 wars for the business to reach the $100 billion mark, but it look only eight years to accumulate the record $100 billion All officers were reelected at the annual meeting as follows: Richard Jacobs, Chairman of the Board; Verland Ransom, President; Richard Beduhn, Vice President; Mary Snack man.

True, Coach Strong had in­ serted his reserves early, and almost didn’t get the starters back on the floor in time to squelch the rally. Alma gave Grand Ledge a good erne before losing, 62-51, and t to but Charlotte, 67-63. and fell before St. Johns Redwings. 76 56 Hastings can’t take St. Johns lightly, either, after the Red­ wings handed Alma that upset.

Sullivan said yes, but Hie Tiger scout added that people should be talking about an 8 to 10,000 seat stadium. ARMCHAIR ATHLETE | by Buzz Youngs ••H’s the man who’s swinging the bat who’s going to play," Tiger Manager Billy Martin said last week as he and the other Tiger brass brought an entourage of fine ball players to meet the press, radio and TV people at the various spots throughout Tigerland. At the Grand Rapids affair Jan. 18, in addition to Martin who gets around with the aid of a fancy cane, were Mickey Stanley, Gates Brown, Willie Horton, Tom Timmerman. Norm Cash and Andy Kanoza, b prospect from Grand Rapids who played at Batavia, N.Y., and Rocky Mount, N.C., last Summer. He is a CMU product. Management included Jim Campbell, general manager; Rick Ferrell, vice president; Hal Middlesworth, director of public relations; Neal Fenkell, operation and sales manager; Ray Lane, one of the radio broadcasting team, and others Bob Sullivan, a Tiger scout and G.R. sports leader, was also present. It was a gay session, with the Tigers exuding confidence, and Willie Horton exhibiting a real trim figure. Manager Martin said that after a season with Detroit, he now knows his players, how their minds work, what’s in their hearts, how they react when the going gets tough. "The Tigers came a long way in one season. They became a team in 1971, not just a collection of players. "We were a team of discipline, ft showed in a lol of little things— and some not so little. Like the way the men cut their hair, stood at attention for the National Anthem, dressed and conducted WE CHALLENGE THEM ALL: Even the "big city" stores, to even come close to our huge selection of top quality furniture, carpeting and appliances. QUALITY FURNITURE, downtown Hastings. WE HAVE THE LOWEST PRICES ANYWHERE YOU MIGHT WANT TO COMPARE. themselves on airplanes and around hotels. "And. on the field, we became the toughest team in either league during the second half of the season." Martin said there are a lot of plus factors "going our way." He said the Tigers had the best defensive record in the American League, and "that’s not going to change." Admitting weakness in starting Etching/and righlhanded relief illy said he regreted as much as anyone that they hadn’t landed some help in a trade. "We’re not pitch-poor either. Not with Mickey Lolich, Joe Coleman and Les Cain for a real good start. After that, Fred Sc he rm an could be our fourth starter but I would like to keep him in the bullpen with Ron Peeranoski because that would give us the best in lefthanded relief," Martin added. He said he lias a half-dozen young pitchers with good arms. He’s also high on Tom Haller to help behind the plate. GM Campbell said Tiger talk about Denny McLain had been blown all out of proportion. Campbell siad he had been asked Jf he would be interested in getting McLain back, and he had answered: "Yes, if the price was right." That's all the farther it ever went, except for the news stories. "We just started to run" Coach Bob White said after the Thornapple-Kellogg eagers broke their 32-game losing streak with an 80-50 win over visiting Corn­ stock Park. At least one thing is certain about players on a Whitecoached ball club: They'll work. Hastings High's defeat at Grand Ledge Friday night was almost unbelieveable. The Comets practically blew the Saxons off the court. We can’t remember when a Blue & Gold £inlet was behind 30-15 after the st 8 minutes of play. Coach Ernie Strong was philosophical about the nightmare. En route home Strong told his players that there are some ball games in which you get beat bad for a lot of reasons. "Relate this to life. Somethings in life just don’t always go the way you want them to go." "We’re still a good ball team." Strong said the next morning. "We rejgoing to take Monday off. and*start all over Tuesday..." Without attempting an alibi. Strong did mention that Rick Rohde had been out of school two days with a bad ankle sprain, and that Tom Steward and Andy Reid had been sapped by cold bugs, and the other three big guns were not up to par. "That could have been part of the reason we looked flalfooted, and didn’t play the ball we’re capable of playing."

Seniors were not exempt. Jim Morr. from the Credit Bureau in Hastings, spoke to Mrs. Court’s business law class recently. Robert Booth, a local insurance man, also talked to the class. When asked why they joined the team they answered: "We all liked pies and it was our chance to win five dollars plus class prestige." Chocolate, banana cream and coconut pies were consumed. Students were allowed out of their sixth hour class to watch the event if they had a ticket. The cost of the tickets was only 25 cents. The contest was sponsored by the Varsity Club who hoped to make a little money and make school a little more exciting. The idea originated with one of the Lakewood seniors, Mike Catlin.

WBCH Congressman Gerald Ford is not interested in running for Senator or being a Vice Presidential running mate. The question was brought up at a speech he gave to 205 seniors at Lakewood high school last Friday afternoon. His answer was an emphatic "NO." "I am contented with the position that I hold," he ex­ plained. Representive Ford gave a short speech in which he stressed that the students should be active in politics. "Make sure that you keep this government in your hands," he said. A question and answer period followed the speech, when he expressed his opinions on many subjects. He feels that the bicameral system ;is good because of its checks and balances, and he also commented that despite political differences people can still be friends. Pine Rest Hospital, Emdin’s store and Eastern Orthopedic School were the scenes the Child Development class saw Thur­ sday. Jan. 13.

The students toured the Mulder Therapy Center and listened to a lecture about the programs and how the kids are helped. After this the students went to Emdin’s store. Emdin’s store is mainly for small children. It has everything from clothes for babies to games for teens. The Eastern School (for the handicapped) was the last stop.

The Assyria Gospel Church The church was first organized by Rev. William Kelly on Sept. 26, 1873. Rev Kelly came every second week on his circuit at the Assyria Center shcool house. Mon Mav 6.1874, the articles of association were signed and recorded with the Methodist Protestant denomination The records reveal that Rev Strveking had become pastor and recorded the articles of association. The following year in October, 1875, the people voted to build a new church They purchased property next to the Assyria Center school and began construction on the new church. The congregation held the dedication of the new building on Aug. 26, 1878 The church must have continued to function as a circuit rider’s parish for 18 more years for the parsohage was not purchased until 1896 At that time the people paid $600 for the parsonage and it remains In use today. , In March. 191B. the congregation voted to build a basement under the church and the people labored together to finish this more dif­ ficult task. Pastor B F * Hitchcock resigned his pastorate in 1935 to found what is now known as the Rural Bible Mission. His love for children was known throughout the area as he went from school to school with the message of salvation for boys and girls. Today. Rev. Hitchcock's pioneer work continues on a vast scale throughout Michigan by many missionaries under the Rural Bible Mission. Pastor Henry Camheli became pastor soon afterwards Dissatisfaction with theological liberalism began to grow. At this time, as it is today, the basic difference between liberalism and fundamentalism isover the verbal inspiration of the Holy Scriptures, tjoth Did Testament and New Testament. Out of liberalism came the ecumenical movement which seeks to organize all of Christianity and ultimately all of the world’s religions. The fundamentalist holds true to the posit non of the verbal in­ spiration of the Scriptures This position holds that the Bible is the Word of God. the final authority for faith and life, inerrant in the original writings, infallible and God-breathed (2 Timothv 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1 20-21. Matthew 5 18. Luke 24:25-27: John 16:12-13) In 1939 with the merger of the Methodist Protestants and the Methodist Episcopal churches, liberalism began to flourish and spread, and the congregation voted unanimously to withdraw from the Methodist dowmination. All church propertv then had to be repurchased from the denomination Later Rev Franklin Prindle pastored the work for many years as an independant fundamental church In June. 1952. the church joined the growing movement of independent churches across the land named the Independent Fundamental Churches of America which lakes a strong position on the inerrancy and infallibility of the Word of God This position remains today in the life of the church, and we trust it will continue until Christ comes. In the words of the writer of the constitution of the church: “It is the desire of the present mem­ bers of the Assyria Gospel Church that it’s testimony shall continue to shine forth as a light in a dark world, holding forth the Word of Life That it shall be a light upon a hill, whose light shall not be hid or dimmed till Jesus comes.” Guest Editorial IS THERE PURPOSE IN LIFE* By Rev.

Many people desire security: others are constantly struggling in their search for happiness; some work hard for material prosperity while still others crave power and influence; and others put forth effort to cultivate a good reputation among their peer groups All of these various goals fail to satisfy the inner man for they all fail in fulfilling the purpose of God for your life. God’s ffarpose for your hfe is to glorify Him in your life. God desires that you reproduce the life of Christ in your life, so that when men look at you they might see Christ in you. thus bringing honor and glory to God There is no higher ambition in life than living a life for Jesus Christ There is no higher purpose in life, and there is no satisfaction in life until your life is turned completely over to God. The first step in glorifying God in your life is your salvation in Christ by trusting Him as your personal Saviour Three times in the first chapter of Ephesians. God’s Word tells us that your salvation in Christ bangs glory to Him. In verse 6 your salvation in Christ is “to the praise of the glory of His grace;" in verse 12 your trust in Christ is “to the praise of His glory;’ and in verse 14 the Holy Spirit ac­ complishes His work in the child of God “unto the praise of His glory” Second, the child of God finds purpose for his life by glorifying God through a daily life that is lived in conformity to the Person of Christ The Apostly Paul stated simply his purpose in life with these words: “For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain" (Philippians 1:21). Again God's Word gives instruction to Christians with this advice: ‘Whether, therefore, ye eat, or drink, or whatever ye do, do all to the glory of God” (1 Corinthians 10:31). I have observed that so many young people lack true purpose in their lives today. They seem to nt* ft wrm have little insight into the realities of life. Many of them are confused as to their purpose in life. Young people have an inner longing for satisfaction of purpose that only a life lived for Christ can bring There is an aimless wandering with no guideposts for living without this quest for truth being satisfied in the Person of Christ. I can recall as a young person that my goal in life was a corporate position with a high financial attainment. When this goal was eventually reached, I le.inwd that my personal goals never satisfied the inner man and its quest for purpose. When there is complete dedication to Jesus Christ, then, ana only then will your life be satisfied. Restlessness will disappear and an inner peace will reign. Then for the first time you will realize that God is working in you for His glory and for the benefit of your fellow man Recently in our church, three of our young people turned their lives completely over to Christ, dedicated to full time service for the Ixrd Jesus Christ. Here is an example of purpose at work in the lives of our boys and girls. Here is a sacrifice of life to the glory of God They have found the secret of life—“For to me to live is Christ.” With this high ideal these young people will go forth serving God and their fellow man with the blessing of God upon them. But so many people today are like the people of Jeremiah’s day. God gave them some good advice to follow but they rejected it. God said—“Stand in the ways, and see. and ask for the old paths, where is the good way. and walk in it, and ye shall find rest for your souls.” God was encouraging the people to seek His ways and to follow His paths with the result being rest in the souls of men. But the people rebelled and replied back—“We will not walk in it” (Jeremiah 6:16). If you are not walking in the good ways of God, you will find no purpose for your life other than satisfaction of fleshly desires. If you are walking in the good ways of God. you have found God’s purpose for your life and rest for your souls. ■; ‘ ’ At MM^tevOla E. W.

Although we know it is the best She went to Heaven for her rest. She’s in our hearts and on our minds From the love she gave that ever binds So now when we see that it is snowing We smile and feel assured in knowing She's with our Lord in Heaven s place With His love and with His grace.’’ Sadly missed by Daughter Joyce Davis Granddaughter Mrs. Jerry (Marie) Price 3 In loving memory of my dear brother, Lewis Reid, who passed away Jan. 26, 1970: “Not a day do we forget you Thoughts of you are always near We who loved you sadly miss you With the passing of the years.’’ Sadly missed by sister, Eva Hollister 1-27 Youth Given Probation For Having Marijuana Steve A. LaPerna, 18, of Wyoming, who bad pleaded guilty to possession of marijuana, Friday, Jan. 21, was placed on six months' probation by Circuit Judge Richard Robinson and was ordered to pay a 825 fine and 825 court costs. He was arrested la Yankee Springs last Aug. 26. The court entered a plea of innocent for Marvin Lyle Red­ man, 43, R2 Nashville, Lawrence Road, charged with taking two steers on Dec. 8 from Donald Kosbar of Maple Grove Town­ ship. His 81,000 bond was con­ tinued. Grand Ledge Blasts Saxons The score was 30-15 at the end of the first quarter, and that told the story. Hastings High’s Saxons ran into a quintet of high flying Comets at Grand Ledge Fnday night, and the tail wind prac­ tically blew them off the court. The finaI score was 96-76. and it could have been worse. Hastings trailed 92-63 with about three minutes to go when Coach Hugh Smyth went to his bench. So did Hasting* Coach Ernie Strong, but it was for another reason. The hustling Ledgers had n fabulous night on the floor, tossing in 38 out of 77 field goal attempts and 19 out of 35 from the line. Hastings hit on 29 out of 72 shots, and 18 out of 31 from the line. The Saxons, although they battled gamely all the way, never could close the gap. They trailed by 16, 50-34, at the half, and 75-57 going into the finale. Lynn VanDerSteen paced the Ledgers with 26, sinking 11 out of 20; Dave Haddad had 24 on 11 out of 17 and Tom Akright 23,8 out of 13. The Saxon’s top scorer, Jerry Kesaenich, was held to 20 points.

Plan Comprehensive Hastings Brochure The Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce has approved the production of a civic booklet designed to become comprehensive information brochure. The brochure, according to Earl W. McMullin. Chamber president, will cover every facet of the Hastings Area including history, educational facilities, transportation, recreation, population and growth, tourism, churches, libraries, hospitals, and other cultural and economic factors. McMullin said: "'Hiis brochure will tell the whole story of the Hastings area and provide a most useful sales tool which this com­ munity can use in attracting new industry, businesses, professional and technical people In addition, local industry and other organizations should find the book comprehensive enough to meet theirparticular needs for recruiting and as a sales tool. ’' Inc Chamber is assisting Tri-Slate Publications in securing editorial material, historical data, photographs and <other pertinent information ' - ”1 think the people of this community as well as the businesses will be extremely pleased with the final product,” McMullin noted. Il will greethr enhance o«- pleasant atmosphere of living Md. in addnimi. will III Ifeaugnallli Ifemgi of the Hastings area M The book winhe tastefully arranged in a non-commerclal formal featuring many four-color photographs. The entire cost of publishing the brochure will be underwritten by advertising space purchased by the business community. The Chamber will be furnished with an adequate supply of the books to answer inquiries about the Hastings area for the next two or three years. The brochure will be ready for distribution by about May 1, ac­ cording to the publisher. Under the Chamber’s new reorganization structure, a task force committee has been developed in an effort to lure new industry to Hastings. One of the first objectives of the committee is to update and publish a stastical data brochure on the community. Coupled with the civic book from Tri-Slate, this should provide a solid background of information for expanding manufacturers.

Plan Comprehensive Hastings Brochure The Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce has approved the production of a civic booklet designed to become comprehensive information brochure. The brochure, according to Earl W. McMullin. Chamber president, will cover every facet of the Hastings Area including history, educational facilities, transportation, recreation, population and growth, tourism, churches, libraries, hospitals, and other cultural and economic factors. McMullin said: "'Hiis brochure will tell the whole story of the Hastings area and provide a most useful sales tool which this com­ munity can use in attracting new industry, businesses, professional and technical people In addition, local industry and other organizations should find the book comprehensive enough to meet theirparticular needs for recruiting and as a sales tool. ’' Inc Chamber is assisting Tri-Slate Publications in securing editorial material, historical data, photographs and <other pertinent information ' - ”1 think the people of this community as well as the businesses will be extremely pleased with the final product,” McMullin noted.

The entire cost of publishing the brochure will be underwritten by advertising space purchased by the business community. The Chamber will be furnished with an adequate supply of the books to answer inquiries about the Hastings area for the next two or three years. The brochure will be ready for distribution by about May 1, ac­ cording to the publisher. Under the Chamber’s new reorganization structure, a task force committee has been developed in an effort to lure new industry to Hastings. One of the first objectives of the committee is to update and publish a stastical data brochure on the community. Coupled with the civic book from Tri-Slate, this should provide a solid background of information for expanding manufacturers. Jack Walton, local oy> tometrist, is chairman of the new industry task force.

Milliken’s austerity program, the Maple Valley school district can expect a cut in state aid beginning in February. Supt. Carroll Wolff told the board of education at their regular meeting Jan. 10. this might hmount to $13,000 Within the next few weeks it is expected negotiations for a master contract with teachinfl and hon-teaching personnel regarding the 1972-73 contracts will begin. John Viele, Herald Hansen and Carroll Wells will represent the board. The district was asked to en­ dorse the Vocational Education Advisopr committee report. The board is primarily in favor of endorsing the specific recom­ mendations of the Vocational Advisory- committee which in­ cludes construction of an Area Vocational Center in Eaton In­ termediate. calling for an election for bonding and operational millage next June. The Intermediate board is planning a vote at the June an­ nual election in all districts for one additional mill for special education. The present levy is one mill. The additional one mill would bring in approximately $227,000 So far as Maple Valley district parents who nave children in special education classes are concerned they arc. for the most part, pleased with the program. The administrators would like to see a closer relationship between the traveling counselors and the parents. Altho the bill covering retroactive pay regarding contracts was approved last August by President Nixon, the school district had not yet received guidelines for making payment. , The board voted to put up a sixfoot fence along Washington street at the Kellogg school to keep children from running into the street. They may later decide to extend the fence along Queen and Middle streets. They ap­ proved the purchase of school signs to be placed on Middle street during the noon hour, and also a gate at the Fuller street play yard so children won’t have to climb a fence to chase balls.

February . Taxpayers In Yankee Springs Oppose Buehler schools, etc. We would like to point out that the millage was voted based upon a 50 percent assessment which had been established by the township Since then the township in­ creased the assessment to meet outside opinions of value. A1?A■ *» 5 percent factor was added. youpropose a 37 percent increase on farm property and a 23 per­ cent increase on residential property. The point is, we only voted on one of the multiples. Pressure from outside the township has increased the other multiple without the township property owners having a voice in tne change. We do not think this is true representation. No. 5 You further stated that the State of Michigan had very generously agreed to an assessed valuation of $125 per acre on land fronting a gravel road and $150 per acre for land fronting on a paved road. Most of us are aware that the State owns large portions of Yankee Springs Township, and included are thousands of feet of prime shore line of Gun Lake. Most-private property on Gun I^ake consists of "one lot" which would measure one fourth or one fifth of an acre. It is apparent that we are not assessed one fourth or one fifth of $125 or $150 as the case may be. Also, it must be remembered that many do not live on county roads and are required to do their own road work, which is also a factor in favor of lower assessments The property owners control the behavior of our guests, and it is apparent the State of Michigan does not. This is another factor unfavorable to ownership. No. 6 If what you stated in vour meetinc is representative of our Barry County, Governing Board as being their altitudes, it ap­ pears we taxpayers of Barry County should have another chance to vote on millage. It seems possible with higher assessment, a lower millage would suffice. Concerned Group of Yankee Springs Township Taxpayers^ Voice Of The People You people who park in Hastings can influence the City Commissioners * Practice a little self-control to make yourselves write your views on angle parking to the people who will make the final decision. It only cost 8c and a little time. You will feel proud that you took the time to let your ideas be known. It’s called government by the people and it starts in your own city with your opinions.

WBCH KADDO AM FM 1220 100 1 HASTINGS MICHIGAN Co-op Program Begins At Delton High School By Chris Glenn Delton Kellogg high school has taken another step to further the education of its students. A co-op program was created after Christmas vacation. Although at this point the program is at an exploratory level, it is expected to become’a regular activity in the Delton educational system. The new curiculum will enable students to experience the actual circumstances and learn to cope with problems while on the job. Students also will hopefully develop the proper attitude, character traits and ability to get along well with their employers and co-workers. To participate in the program students must meet some requirements. The student must be at least 16 and a senior in high school. He or she must have permission from a parent or guardian and the approval and recommendation of the high school counselor and principle. Then the student must fill out an application form and his permanent file reviewed. His academic achievement and number of credits earned will be checked. The student then is placed in a job fitting his or her desires and training.

These breaks will run from 10:29 to 10:42 in the morning and 2:07 to 2:20 in the afternoon. The reasons for the breaks is that students at Lakewood have much longer class periods than other schools. Instead of 58 minute classes the periods will be reduced to 55 minutes. During this break, students are limited to going to the Student Commons for pop, or walk the halls, or just to talk to their friends. The faculty during this (ime may go to the teacher's lounge and have coffee, pop or a smoke They can also check papers or do whatever they desire. "It’s a break that students can use just to relax". Principal Gerrit Klomp said with a smile The 11 minute break is ex­ perimental and will continue if students use it well. "I don't think there will be any problem as to the student's conduct because it's almost the same thing as coming to school in the morning,” Principal Klomp said. When asked if there would be more smoking during this period Mr. Klomp said: "Not any more than there is right now.” Special Of The Week ■C COLA 8 1* ox. >otel«* •or 89* p,u1 The Superette 205 N.

Gala Prom Planned By April Miller "The Days of Wine and Roses" was the theme chosen by the junior class for the 1972 Lakewood junior-senior prom. The prom will be held at the Red Room at the Romana Terrace in Grand Rapids, on May 12. t "It shouldn't be too much of a problem in transportation because most couples eat dinner at Grand Rapids and Lansing", Principal Gerrit Klomp said. "There will be a choice of two dinners sold to them.” Principal Klomp also ex­ plained that the prom would work out better if held in another place licsides the school gym because too few students help with the prom and the expense of decorations are too high. "Besides we don't like to shut the gym up for a whole week for decorating”, Principal Klomp said. Romana Terrace was selected because they do not serve liquor on the premised. "We wouldn’t have it there if it did," Principal Klomp said seriously. The cost of the prom will depend upon what kind of band the class picks and it will also depend upon which dinner the guests want to buy.

Rather than concentrating the majority of class time on theory. Instructor Bob Brown has directed student efforts to actual repair work on automobiles In his second year at Lakewood. Brown has advanced students from minor car work like tune-ups. to major automotive surgery, such as valve grindings. engine overhauls and body rebuildings. Power mechanics is a prerequisite for students who wish to take automotive mechanics. In the former class, which Brown also teaches, students learn to use the checking equipment which is needed for the more complicated auto mechanics classes. There are two sections of automotive mechanics classes, with a total of 46 students, most of whom are allowed to choose the work they want to do No Major Changes “The only exception is that we don’t allow modification of cars," Brown said, "like suping up engines and changing the twdv of a car. If it isn't recommended by the manufacturer. I won’t let them do it." Also, if the boys don't have the money required to do work on their own cars. Brown will assign projects, such as tune-ups on teacher's cars. “That has been the proof of our work." he said. "We have been able to work on teacher's cars and they’ve been pretty well satisfied." Brown refuses to work on automatic transmissions and rear ends of cars because it is so difficult and the boys don't want to be responsible for doing the wrong work. They also only accept jobs from Lakewood teachers and members of the auto mechanics classes. Those students who have their own cars which need repair usually work on individual projects, such as overhauling engines. The class built a "hot lank", in which an engine is cleaned and degreased. Brown believes it is the onlv “hot tank” in Lake Odessa, and it cleans an engine so well that sometimes there is a rusting problem when finished Room For 10 Cars The classes were originallyheld in the old metal shop room. 60 x 60 feet, which held three mechanics teacher. Bob Brown, at right, checks the responses of a truck on the testing equipment owned by the class. Two of his cars. The new room is over 100 feet wide, with room for 10 cars. There was plenty of room for the boys to build a front end align­ ment rack, which cost $300. They cut the ready-built cost of $1 JOO by pouring their own cement and buying turntables and hub gauges. Another machine which students use regularly is the high speed wheel balancer, which was donated by a man from a Hastings body shop. Brown said students do wheel balancings up to a speed of 90 mph, higher than most small garages will go. Several group projects are in progress at this time. The classes on Winter-Special Items! 7-Up 89' Gilbert Tate-Owner boys are in class for two hours daily and they can complete (hit* • job in three or four weeks. ‘ “The boys want to work on their own engines," he said, “but the cost factor often is prohibitive if they want to do it right. Someone will usually donate an engine and we can overhaul it4>r about $180. compared to a coift of $400 in a garage." The classes completed 270 separate jobs on cars last year, mainly tune-ups and several head light alignments. Much more copld be done in these classes. Brown said, if there was more money. Western Michigan University and he encourages nnmnraow boys hnvt who whn don't do well scholastically to register for his power and auto mechanics classes. "This semester we are trying an experiment with six boys who don’t do too well in school." Brown said. "They will have no written work requirements and will work on an old truck we have." Boys who have limited abilities but enjoy mechanical work offer a washing and waxing service. A wash and wax is $4.00, a winter wash is $1.25 and a spring and-or summer wash is $1.00. Boys in the classes can wash their’cars for 50 cents. Many Valve Jobs l^ast year the auto mechanics class did only one valve grind job and no engine overhauls. They have finished eight valve jobs in two weeks and about 15 since the beginning of the school year. . A complete engine overhaul in , a garage will usually take 18 hours for a V-8. Brown said.

Send your questions regarding “people problems" (moral or spiritual subjects) to Uncle Aaron, Rl, Hastings, Michigan 49058 Appropriate Answers from The Book of Books Q. Who wrote the Bible? A. “The prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Spirit/’ II Peter 1:21 “All scripture is given by inspiration of God...(ie, God breathed)" 11 Timothy 3:16. The original manuscripts were written by holy men of God as God directed them. Q. Does God chastise people? If so, who and why? A. Yes, “For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son, whom he receiveth.’’ Hebrews 12:6, Proverbs 3:12 Q. Who? A. “But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all (children) are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons" Hebrews 12:8 Q. Why? A. “...afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness. .“ Hebrews 12:10­ 11. Q When does a person receive eternal life? A. “He that hath the Son hath (eternal) life;..." I John 5:11*13. The moment a person willfully, and consciously receives Jesus Christ as his Saviour and Lord, God gives him eternal Life. It is a present possession. Eternal life is a gift. It can only be received or rejected. Romans 6:23. BPW To Hear Mrs. Smith Tell Of Russian Trip Mrs. Melvin (Marie) Smith will tell about “Inside Russia-A Seven Year Contrast" when the Hastings Business & Professional Women’s Club meets Tuesday, Feb. 8, at 6:30 for dinner. Mr. and Mrs. Smith have made two trips to Russia, the first one being seven years ago. Both were taken with the "People to People" program, organized at the same time as the Peace Corps. The "People" go to other countries to meet people there, living in the private homes. Mrs. Smith will trace their trip from the U. S. to Europe, giving the highlights of their travels through England, Yugoslavia, Italy, the Scandinavian countries and . of course, Russia. She will tell of the changes noted since their original visit to Russia, and will also show slides. BPW mapibersare being urged to bring guests.

People need places out of their past which they can see and understand arid ultimately love, that symbolize those who lived in these places before them, and struggled and suffered and built there. If those men and women could face and solve their problems, so can we. We need such refuges in the community, as we need churches and schools, that they may be seedbeds for the cultivation of a vigorous and informed love of country. even greater need to create a sense of identity and belonging to the community where they live and work. Between the fully revitalized historic house and the preser­ vation of the architectural shell, there are hundreds of possible compromises any one of which might be the solution for the community. There are values for a child on his way to school just in knowing that this house stood on this same site when his greatgrandfather was a boy. What shall we save? We need to preserve buildings that speak directly to those families who had callouses, as well as to those who had carriages. It is fine to exhibit the aesthetic best out of the past but it is equally important to interpret the ways men and women worked, created, and played. We need more gun shops, millineries, schoolhouses, taverns and foundries preserved. Let us speak to people in terms that add meaning to their own everyday lives, that place their jobs.’ ihdr responsibilities as citizens and parents in historic context so that they see their present problems not as ex­ ceptions, but as continuations of AN ESTABLISHED AND EX­ PERIENCED DEALER: Can sell for less and still give better service Shop QUALITY FUR­ NITURE. this area's largest selection at low, low chain-store prices. 117 W.

Restoring Bristol Inn— Craftsmen working with Chester Stowell, of Stowell's Building service, have been restoring the old Bristol Inn. which was a stage coach stop during the 1856's on the Battle Creek to Hastings run. The Inn was moved to Charlton Park last year in a 116,300 project financed with a Federal mat­ ching grant to the Barry Parks & Recreation Commission. The Inn. once a haven for travelers, was constructed by William P. Bristol of New York in 1852. Wayne Ferris of Dowling donated the structure to the county in .April of 1969.—Banner Photo. Bristol Inn Travelers Haven During The 1850's Bristol Inn provided stage passengers stopping at the inn with an atqpie (fining room, a refreshing lap room, and limited sleeping quarters Drivers could make use of Bristol's bams and smithy for changing horses and making necessary repairs to their thoroughbrace coaches Bristol's career as an in­ nkeeper started before the 1850's. His log home served as town hall and tavern almost from the date of its raising in 1837. By 1860. however, the stage-drivers preflered a newer facility, driving past the Bristol Inn to change horses * and rest passengers at the Robinson House.

Historic Preservation! Why We Need It! By Frank Walsh Director. Charlton Park The purpose of any historic preservation is to communicate the lessons of history, in order that present and the future generations may learn from the past. In this, historic preser­ vations have a oreat advantage over the schoolroom and the library in that they provide a more dynamic form of com­ munication. They breathe life into the chronicle of bygone human experience, giving it vitality, vivid meanings sense of personal identification and contemporary importance. In a world of progress, of shopping centers, interstate highways, and decentralized industries, of what earthly use are old buildings that have served their original purpose? To measure our progress we must know where we are and where we are going We must also keep a few points along the way to indicate where we nave been. Out of this knowledge R......... February 2, 1872 should come a valuable kind of persona] security such as a child is given in a loving home, or such as comes to those who find peace in one of the historic religions. The past should have as many personal lies for each of us as possible, for none should feel that he is floating in time, rootless and unrelated to all that has hap­ pened to our fathers and those who lived in our place before us. To feel a part of the progression of mankind is to enter into full citizenship in the race of men. In the framework of the home let there be hand-me-downs from yesterday: pictures and fur­ niture or a piece of lace. Things that have been in the family for a long time have a magic of their own. asserting the values of life and its survival Villages and cities, too, need focal points of affection, of the mstone community spirit. The variety of these places can and should be numberless. In a land where few people live in the town where they were bom there is an on|y 3e/ff. | Reg. 5‘/ft.

Everyone in the world knows that all Americans are millionaires. • Everyone, that is except Americans.) But only Finlan McLonergan, of Glocca Morra. Ireland, knows whyv By a process of mathematics, logic and moonbeams he has found the answer: It is the soil of Fort Knox ihat makes this so. There's something magical about that soil. It gives to gold phenomenal qualities hitherto unsuspected even by the gold itself. Thus equipped with powers verging on the atomic, the gold in Fort Knox performs a wondrous work. It radiates a powerful influence throughout America, fertilizing the oranges of Florida, activating the asscmblv lines In Detroit and producing a bumper crop of milltohaires. If this reasoning is false, then why did we rush to dig gold out of the ground in California in 1849, only to bury it Jn the ground of Fort Knox a century later? This is the McLonergan theory, and the exciting corollary is all too plain: Any man can bury a bit of gold in the ground, near Fort Knox, and become a millionaire Flnian knows his economics, but he also knows his lovely and Sited daughter, Sharon. He’ll never get her to America to try out theory if ne tells her the truth. So he invents a mythical case of arthritis for himself, and fills her full of pity with a story that the only climate to cure it is found in Rainbow Valley, in the State of Missitucky, U.S.A. near Fort Knox. Getting the gold to launch his project is. for Flnian. less a problem. Some of his best acquaintances are gnomes and elves, and the leprechauns whose crock of gold presides the power to make wishes for the mortals of Ireland. So he lies in ambush one nieht when the moon is high and the cup is flowing, waylays a leprechaun who is busy laying down a blanket of dew, and "borrows” the little fellow’s crock. This is what starts the fun. Finian gets to Rainbow Valley with Sharon and plants the crock. The leprechaun comes in pursuit, ut­ tering dire warnings of misery and destruction. Wishes are made on the crock (it’s good for only three wishes in the hands of a mortal) and history veers crazily from its path. The news gets out that gold has been discovered on McLonergan's property. Credit and calico gowns and tractors pour in upon the Valley. Finian’s theory comes true. Sharon is about to get that rainbow her father has always promised her-a boy for her heart, and pennies for her purse-when the leprechaun's doleful predictions materialize.

Big red bams with huge lofts for hav storage have been replaced with low silhouetted buildings sided with brightly colored metal in an attractive assortment of colors. Yertertayi si fas lo«k like cigarettes standing on end compared tn today's giants. A building readily accesaable to 30 tost tank trucks stands prominent among today's structures. It houses separate rooms for milking, a bulk milk storage tank and a modem bathroom. Walls are made of ceramic tile or other easily cleaned surface and equipment is made of stainless steel. Daily chores are given a big assist by«Oechanization. This includes- uqfapding of silos and conveying iC to (he spot where it is to be fad as Well as mechanical milking. Thn fCugene and Larry’ Haywood farth, west of Hastings, use an automatic washing device which washes the udders of six cows at a time by simply pressing .a button. Calf-fnaring too has become specialtefcfL and modem dairy farms • typically have separate insulatea ana mechanically ventilated buildings especially for this purpose, The Robert Benders, neighbors of Haywoods, Spring Farm Chemical Meet At Lake Odessa The highlights of vital farm production imputs will be discussed at a meeting to be held in Lake Odessa on Friday. Feb 18. The meeting, to be held at the Community Center, west of take Odessa on M-50. will start at 12 noon with a free luncheon. Il will be followed by presen­ tations covering the coming trends in fertiliser, the types of farm chemicals which will be employed in the 70’s, the effect of new federal regulations which will limit the use of some of the chemicals which have been raised in the past. Mention will also be made of some of the effects the en­ vironmentalists will have on farm production in the future. Representatives from farm chemical manufacturers, in­ cluding E Z qw Giegey, Monsanto. Shell and Stauffer will be present along with people from Smith Eros Elevators All farm producers are en­ couraged to attend this meeting. Door prizes will be given, and a special sale on corn herbicide will be offered. The meeting will be sponsored by Smith Bros., Voite & Co. Lake Odessa. FI , High Producer Hulong Lucifer Elsa Joy, a four year-old registered Holstein Hubert Longs herd in Castelton Township, has produced a noteworthy record of 20.820 pounds of milk and 684 pounds of butterfat in 305 days The average U.S. dairy cow’s estimated annual output is 9,388 pounds (4,366 quarts) of milk containing 345 pounds of but terfat. arc vonstructinfl something of a model in calf housing. The Robert Clarks, south of Hastings, have also recently built a specialized calf housing facility. So many changes and im­ provements have been made by county dairymen this past year it is impossible to visit them on a one day tour. To see what just a few of them have done a Dairy Building Tour will be held in Barry County. Wed.. Feb. 16 AU of fee farms selected as tour stops have practical buildings and though investment per cow varies, considerably all are within a reasonable cost range. Actually, the four farms to be visited are quite different but have a lot in common. All are family farms involving father and son working agreements, all are on official test and have above average production and have many similarities in the design and function of buildings. The tour will begin at the Ted and Rick Halbert farm Number 2 at 9:30 a m. This farm is located on the Banfield road a mile West of M-37 The purpose of this stop is to suggest a possible use for an obsolete basement bam, so many of which have either been abandoned or inefficiently used during the past few years. This is a calf stop only and does not include study of the well known Halbert dairy cow installation which includes 370 registered and grade Holsteins and Red Danes with a December rolling herd average of 13,372 pounds of milk and 526 pounds of butterfat in 1971. Corn silage is sole roughage. The Halberts raise all of their heifer claves and their bull claves as well when space is available.

In Hastings, Michigan �EDITORIAL -----------by R. M. C.--------------- The Hastings Mall project is off dead center A meeting of owner* and representatives of business firms in the State Street area have agreed on a definite plan to present to the City Council. One hundred percent of those present at a special meeting en domed the parking ipttidea. Included in the plan was the removal of all parking meters on both sides of State Street from Michigan Avenue through Church Street with installation of either angle or 90 degree parking with a two-hour parking^ limit Along with the above, there was agreement that an assessment district should be established with the assessment based on State Street frontage, inorder to raise funds to establish off-street parking, primarily for the use of store employees There also appeared to be strong support for continuing theprogram indefinitely to provide more off-street parking in the rent df buildings on the north side of State Street as new opportunities became available. However, that is for |he future.' ’«* As of now. with thebackingrf business up and down the street, the Hastings Chamber of Commerce can go to ut? Council with a definite proposal for the parking mall aM for a plab to finance at theknown expense the cost of additional off-street barking If the Council feels that it can forgo Ab parking meter revenue along State Street and give free packing a try, that will be fine. At present, we understand, these metersgroja about 118,000 during the year, although with collection and maintenance costs deducted, the net would be considerably less. No definite recommendation was voted in regard to angle or 90 degree narking but the opinion was unanimous that anything was preferable to the present parallel arrangement Free parking along the street would be a positive boost for the central business district and would put . 'Main Street." Hastings, in a better competitive condition with the numerous shopping centers with their acres of free parking, all within driving range of our city If there hqs to be some compromise in plan details between the Council and the Chamber, so be it The important thing is to get the Mall either with free or meter parking and with either angle or 90degree parking. No unsurmountable difficulties are evident here that should not be adjusted by reasonable compromise The important thing is to get the mall and to get rid of parallel parking • With the installation of the Mall. Hastings merchants if they work together as a group rather than a “me-only” basis, the central business district here should experience a really significant trade revival February marks the birthday of two'great Americans whose namqp would have to be included in any select list of the all-time greats,of history-Abraham Lincoln and George Washington Although Washington grew to manhood in the aristocratic society of Colohial Virginia, while Lincoln's formative years were spent in the frontier conditions of Kentucky, Indiana and Illinois, both had many points of similarity. Both were tall (Lincoln 6’4"; Washington 6'3") and physically powerful, whose feats became legendary during their lifetimes Despite this unusual physical strength, both were narrow chested and suffered periodic respiratory ailments that appeared at times to be a forerunner of consumptive troubles. Neither would have been cleared for military service on the basis of the army physical stan­ dards of today Washington and Lincoln were both noted athletes in their younger days and excelled in sports of the period. In the case of Lincoln, this may come as a surprise since it is his ungainly, loose-jointed awk­ wardness that usually receives the spotlight Yet. he was. in reality, a wall < ’>ordinated individual who excelled in such frontier contests as wrestling ihe was often challenged but seldom defeated' and feats of axmanship Both men were accomplished horsemen Lincoln gained his experience as a youth on the Indiana frontier and later while riding to court sessions on the old Eighth Circuit tn Illinois where horse and saddle or horse and buggy were the only means of travel available Washington was in the saddle from boyhood to old age In an era that produced many noted horsemen. Washington was in a class by himself and covered hundreds of miles in record time between the Virginia frontier and the colonial capital at Williamsburg during the years of the border war with the French and their Indian allies When Lincoln visited Union encampments during the Civil War years, his ability as a horseman was a surprise factor that drew much favorable comment and acclaim. The long, lanky President exhibited an easy grace on horseback that was almost entirely lacking as he “stilted” about on fodt. Both men were short changed on formal education Due to financial troubles within the family. Washington was unable to go to England as most of his brothers had done for advance study His education, that Aided in his early teens was probably about the equivalent of the seventh grade level today. Lincoln had a total of less than a year of formal education, pieced together a few weeks at a time when the services of visiting schoolmasters were available in the frontier communities of Indiana Yet, neither accepted these limitations as a permanent handicap Both men continued to study, to observe, to profit by experience and to think things through for them selves This was a source of their eventual greatness Washington and Lincoln both trained themselves as surveyors, a profession that was paid for services in hard cash Washington in vested a large share of his earnings in land; Lincoln to support himself and help reduce debts incurred when he tried, without suc­ cess. to run a general merchandise business at New Salem. Lincoln s mastery of English has amazed scholars the world over His Gettysburg Address and Second Inaugural still rate as top classics of the English language Although Washington never ruse to comparable heights as either a penman or an orator, he did. on oc casion-mostly in private communications--come through wUh ex­ pressions of real eloquence. Both men. during their years of public service, were faced with difficult problems for which they had no prior training or experience­ pioneering on new frontiers, so to speak-and both measured up to these challenges through the exercise of intelligence, a deep sense of responsibility and a desire to serve their country Washington, who came on the scene before the development of partisan politics, nevertheless had to cope with a surprising amount of animosity and intrigue at the hands of his own country men It was Washington’s personality and strength of character, alone, that kept the weak and bickering colonies together during the long, difficult years of the Revolutionary War Lincoln, during his Prairie years in Illinois became a master of practical politics-he knew what whelling and dealing was all about! -However. as President, he used this knowledge in a statesmanlike manner to hold the bickering and badly divided Northern States together (hiring the four terrible years of the Civil War Without 1 THE HASTINGS BANNER.........

SULTANA BRAND ‘‘Super-Right" Mofvro Boof • APPLE SAUCE GLAZED PORK LOIN v Steps are being completed on the curriculum requirements for . tiie proposed new high school for the Delton-Kellogg school. The past week meetings have : been held between the Board of Education, the architects, teachers and members of the - Citizens Committee. The initial study made last fall by the Citizens Committee in­ : dkaled the need for additional facilities and favored the building of a new high school with renovation of the existing high school as a middle school. The board then asked the citizens committees to center their studies on the individual . curriculum requirements. The teachers have been commended for their assistance. The fine arts area which covered the music, art, language, . math and science departments completed their reports on Feb. 8 with a special meeting for the specific purpose of planning of renovation of the high school to a middle school. This renovation cost must be included in the bond issue. The vocational-industrial and special areas will be covered within the next week in the same manner. All meetings are open to lhe public. Times and places may be ascertained by contacting the supertintendent’s office. Architects will present preliminary plans by March 15, with a cost estimate. The Citizens Growth Com­ mittee report included that if the growth pattern of the school d district continues to increase as it in the past few years the 5 has district can expect an increase of high school students to 1,200 over the next 12 years. Thus lhe high school will be planned to be built in two phases and will initially house grades 10­ 11-12. Phase II, which would be ~ necessary with further increased T enrollment, would accomodate 53 up ip 1.200 students and at that : time could include grades 9 thru : 12. The site selected for this £ building is directly southwest of 2 the present campus and “ overlooks both the high school ■< and Crooked Lake. The school • district owns this property which was part of the Blackman farm. 3 The board has discussed the f* setting of the date for a millage : - election as early as April 10 but • will await cost estimate and State - approval of plans. 7-Rib End Portion C<rt CM<| 3 Continue Study For New Delton High School Full (No* 5 or 4) tfWV WHOLE KERNEL 99* Sultana Com. .

Fit­ zgerald of the Michigan Court of Appeals, District 3, have upheld the constitutionality of a circuit court judge appointment of an attorney to represent a defendant in a criminal case. Hastings Atty. Richard M. Shuster in August of 1970 had chailenged lhe right of Circuit Judge Richard Robinson to appoint him to defend an indigent charged with a criminal offense. Atty Shuster questioned the constitutionality of the law requiring the judge to make the appointment. He contended that the law is an invaslbn of lhe personal right of an attorney to accept or reject serving on a case. That it also violated a lawyer's right to due process and equal protection, and amounted to involuntary servitude and denied the defendant of adequate assistance of counsel. A Judge Robinson, after Atty. Shuster refused the appointment, held, him in contempt court, and Shuster appealed The Appeals Court said the only question before it was the con- & J ELECTRONICS WUjO....Expert Color TV Service * Servicing Delton, Prairieville * Cloverdale and Hickory Corners * tJOOl Norris Rd. Cornur •< J Mile «nd Norns; Mites Sooth ol Prairie Schooner . stitutionalitv of the criminal appointment system. The judges declared that the power of lhe court to reouire an attorney to accept such an appointment “has been vested in the courts from the very dawn of the Angelo-American judicial tradition.** > “For a historical development of lhe concept of requiring at­ torneys to render service to indigent criminal defendants, see the appendix to United States v Dillion 346 F2d 633 (CA 9,1965). “Although there is no Michigan case directly on the point, it has been almost universally held that, even in the absence of any com­ pensation, requiring practicing attorneys to undertake the defense of indigent criminal defendants does not violate the attorney’s con­ stitutional rights....” The opinion continued: “The duty of the trial court to appoint counsel under such circumstances is clear, as it is clear under cir­ cumstances such as are disclosed by the record here; and his power to do so even in the absence of statute cannot be questioned. At­ torneys are officers of the Court, and are bound to render service when required by appointment. “Affirmed. No costs, a public question being involved." Atty. Shuster, in his appeal, had also pointed out that an ex­ tremely skilled trial lawyer of civil matters could border on lhe in­ competent in many criminal cases, and thus be unable to provide a client with adequate representation. The contempt of court action did not affect Atty. Shuster’s right to practice in any court, and Judge Robinson had said that this par­ ticular action was a friendly proceeding designed to get this issue to the appellate courts where a ruling could be made.

The Michigan Commission of Aging reminds all people 65 and older that under Michigan’s revised Homestead Tax Exemption law they might now qualify for this exemption. Applicants, who must file for this exemption each year at their local assessor’s office, may apply from Jan. 4 until sometime m March—a date set by each local assessor. Persons who qualify are exempt from the taxes on the first $2,500 of lhe valuation of their home. Last year, the average exemption was around $130. To qualify under the revised Homestead Tax Exemption law which was passed by the Legislature, persons must have lived in Michigan for five of the past ten years, and in their home for at least six of the preceding twelve months. Total income from all sources can not exceed $6,000. Assessors will require legal proof of age; (a drivers license can not be used), proof of homeownership such as a deed, land contract, or mortgage; the contract that was signed. Under the revised law, there are no restrictions placed on the value of the property. That is, no matter how much the applicant's homestead is worth, if he meets the other requirements he should applicant's social security number, and a statement of in­ come. Tenant stockholders of cooperative housing units must bring a photostat of the tax bill, an ownership certificate, and the AT CAMPLE JEUNE Marine Cpl. Floyd A. Shaffer, son of Mr. and Mrs. Glenn A.

Thinking individuals do want to know ■ what life is all about, its purpose and ideals Throughout a lifetime of course al! people do learn something even though the hard way possibly about this fundamental question. If life is spent purposeless with privileges in plenty and restrictions at a minimum normally certain lessons will come across. Many people are later in life confined within the area of their prisonwalls because they avoided this vital question while they had still time Their cel) might not be a physical one but it will be a circumstancial one I-earning life’s fundamental answers the hard way is expensive - like a chargeaccount with unending payments “What is truth*" In the judgment hall 2000 years ago Pilate asked Jesus this question Whether be genuinely wanted to know or not has to be seen on the background of his later crucial act towards Jesus However. Pilate had in many people’s mind an enviable op­ portunity because he could direct this vital inquiry to The Lord Himself physically present How does modern man go about getting his answers'* Is he to ask his parent or his friend, some counselor or a minister* Any of these would not be able to give the answer, as Jesus gave it to fhlate. He demonstrated the truth through obedience to God’s plan of preser­ ving it an unmistakeabie way We will stage the question again: Where*" Maybe he is supposed to withdraw into his own shell and not bother anyone about such a heartlesting query We will let the Bible give the answer: "Sanctify them through Thy truth. Thy word is truth." How simple it is, the Bible is the answer. ''And that from a child thou hast known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. All Scriptire is given by inspiration of God. and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof.for correction, for instruction in righteousness that the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto al! good works ” However, what about all the different interpretations of the Bible today reflected in so many churches and various teachings* Indeed this might seem perplexing, but also.here the Old Book has a statement to make: "No prophecy*of the Scripture is of any private interpretation, for the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man but Holy men of God spake as thrv were moved bv the Holy Ghost" , In other worts: The scripture is divinely inspired by the moving of the Holy Spirit and as such it is tube interpreted in the same way Man is not supposed to do it ■ The Holy spirit is. And just as evident as God Himself never intended to confuse man. thus His word will not be confusing as long as our search for truth is a genuine one. The Bible is to be its own interpreter (ISA 28:9-10). A (genuine interest in truth is reflected in a "Hunger and thirst after righteousness" and the promise is that "They shall be filled." “And ye shall seek me and find me. whea ye shall search for me with al) your heart." A sincere search for truth will indeed find it. Sincerity does not ask for “The easy way out" - it asks only for doing right and nothing less than that wifi ever satisfy. “If any man will do His will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God. or whether I speak of myself."

Marshall St., which was formerly owned by the Church of the Nazarene. The purchase price of 14.000 was borrowed from a private party. Throagh the generous giving, this debt was paid in full some two years later in IMS. During part of this time the residence at 429 E. Clinton was being rented as a temporary parsonage for Rev. Martin Sickmiller and his family. Then in June of 1967 the residence at 315 E Marshall was purchased This property lies adjacent to the church property to the east. This home is now used as a parsonage. The purchase price of this property was between $9,000 and $10,000. A loan of $7,000 was granted by the same private party who made the loan on the church property. .The start of this year marks the sixth anniversary of the begin­ ning of this relatively young church. This February also marks the final installment on the par­ sonage debt, through the generous giving of the congregation. The purchase price of both church and parsonage of about $14,000 has been paid off in six years, this of course is in addition to all the other giving. 02678672 Send your questions regarding “people problems** (moral or spiritual subjects) to - Uncle AArou.

Jesus Christ as to his essence is diety, (ie God), “...they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being in­ terpreted is, God with us.” Matthew 1:23b, with Isaiah 7:14. That's why He was crucified He claimed to be God. see John 1:1, 14; 5:18, 8:24, 10:33, 37. 38, 19:7, 20:31, Romans 1:4, John, chapter 8 discusses the question "who art thou?" Q. Where do babies go when they die? A. In II Samuel 12:23, David said in regards to his baby that had died, "...I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me.” David would go where his baby is, to God in heaven.

Wad 7:00 p.m Prose Everyday Faith The Hastings Kiwanis Club's Support of Churches Committee has arranged for individuals to write about What May Faith Means to Me In Everyday Life. The t following reflection was prepared by Alfred Lowe. WHAT MY FAITH MEANS by Fred Lowe The first thoughts that came to mind were of wife and family. Personal convictions of living are most intimately experienced in the closeness of the home. The next thought was one of com­ munity involvement and ways of service and interest in the problems and progress of the community. The obvious answer to faith in everyday life for me is in my everyday work, children I admit to being an optimist when working with children. Fully realizing the many problems children have in their educational growth from year to year and the variety of ex­ periences that have determined the individual characteristics they bring to school with them, it is not difficult to have faith in them as a creation of God. They are in need of instruction, yes. but their willingness to grow and desire for success makes this faith in children a rewarding and spiritual experience. Having faith in the religious teachings of the church and to be able to express what that faith is in words can be one mode of declaring faith. To develop faith »the teachings of the and to transfer these beliefs so as to have faith in the living creations of God, gives added meaning and purpose for living to me. Trust. love, kindness, tolerance, acceptance, and many more are all part of what comes under the broad meaning of the word faith as given to us by God. He gave his creation, mankind, the opportunity to accept Him through faith. Can it not be also a powerful and impressive ex­ pression of our Christian faith to attempt to share the faith He Eve us with those we see in our ily living.

De-Ice Tanks Tn take the freeze off animal water tanks, wrap them with heating tape or use an electric tank de-icer, says Robert Maddex, Michigan State University agricultural engineer The only other alternative to Kvent ice covered tanks or ten plastic bases is to make more frequent trips with the water pail. But that’s not too practical, especially if you have several animals to water, says Maddex.

Editorials Prom Is Too Expensive Bv Shelia Turner MiddleUlle T-K Hi«h School The Junior-Senior Prom should be worth the money that people spend on it, but it usually isn't. The junior clap officers tell you that you have to pay your dues to go to the prom, and if you don’t pay them you aren’t allowed to go. If they want to be that way about it. they should make it worthwhile to* go to. Boys have to rent a tuxedo, buy flowers for the girl, and pay for the dinner, while the girl has to buy a dress, flower, and get her hair done, all of which(takes a lot of time. Then when you go to the prom, it takes hardly any time at all to find out the extent of your expensed Most people want to go to enjoy themselves. But when the orchestra isn't any good and the place isn't what you expected and the food isn't worth the money, you realise what has gone to waste to make a person enjoy himself You could have used your money on something else which wasn't a formal affair and had a better and more enjoyable time with your date. If the junior class can afford to spend almost $2,000, they ought to be able to make the prom wor­ thwhile, not just to the Kids on the committee-, but the entire junior and senior class also. I know not everyone can be on a committee, but all the different ideas should be considered, and committee members should not jump to one conclusion. The Junior class ought to look around and get some new and different ideas before they try to promote another flop for a prom. After all, it should be worth the people’s money, shouldn't it? By Brad Weeks Dressing for the junior -senior proms is getting to be more of a problem every year. The girl buys an expensive dress and wears it once. The guy rents a tux for the price that he could buy a sports coat. The girls should buy or wear a good dress that they could also wear on dates, to church, etc. If the guys all wore sport jackets, they would look better and feel more com­ fortable. I'm not trying to sound cheap, but it is ridiculous. All of that money spent in one night is too much! By Fil Wieland Junior and senior proms have gone on for many years. They nave been formal and expensive fnr many years, maybe too long I would like to see a prom that is not formal, one where we have a rock band instead of an or chestra. because usually high school students can't dance the waltz or polka anyway. By doing this, we would cut the cost down to half and the students would cut their cost down to a quarter So let's see a little change in the prom scene Earth Day To Center Around Planting By Chris Glenn The wrestling team took part in the Delton Invitational, Satur­ day, Feb 5 For Professional Insurance Planning The Special Hecker Agency Coca-Cola 8 1* oi.

For the juniors this will be their last chance to make the trip, and for some of the ninth and tenth graders, this will be their first chance. Seniors will hMve fond memories of years past, the years of getting up early in the morning and going to bed late that night. Thoughts return of five to six hours of marching and concert, and memories of all the fun and good times shared, like the welcome dance. How many cans of pop did you really sneak off with? Recreation also kept band members busy at State. Golf, volleyball, tennis and swimming were just a few of the activities. In actuality, the whole M.S.U. campus was available for ex­ ploration. That in itself is an experience worth remembering. Although there is a lot of fun at band days, there is also a lot of work. Day by day, in the course of a week, two bands would together work in a simple, yet complicated show. They would usually start of with an entrance, followed by a block drill. After the drill would come the surprise. Everyone wondered what ingenious effort had been put into the dance drill this year. This drill highlights the entire show. Movements and steps are set to a beat, resulting in the hardest yet simplest drill. The show would end with an exit, and as band members heard the applause and cheers, everyone knew it had been worth the tired, aching, hot feet and the parched lips. As band week ends this sum­ mer, students will again realize the worth of the clinic, and they will also recognize the tribute owed to Arthur Steward and Terrill Sy Iman, for their work and patience. Farmer s State Bank Middleville East Main Street 795-3338 Girl Studies At Maple Valley Arabic Marilu wanted to come to the United States to see for herself the American way of life, and this is exactly what she is doing. Mariiu’s homelife is very tranquil, unlike most of ours. School attendence, at her private American girl’s school, is nine hours a day. but each day’s schedule is different. After 4:00 p.m., school activities end for the day. On weekends, Marilu often goes to the theater, movies or to dances. The idea that all young girls go out on dates with chaperons is a falacy. In fact, in Chile, Marilu comes home at about 2:30 or 3:00 a.m. Chilean guys and gals have the same clothing styles that we have, and boys wear their hair When asked her reaction to Michigan weather, Marilu said, “It’s terrible”! She had never seen snow before. Of course, she hadn’t really been able to ex­ perience it much yet because of it’s scarcity. During wintertime in Chile, the temperature averages around 60 degrees. Summer temperatures average between 95 and 99 degrees. New Student Teacher Likes Good Attitude Another of TK’s student teachers is Eric Uitvlught, who is assisting industrial arts teachers Mr. Frost in mechanical drawing.

Points of interest the students visited and beautiful landscape scenes will be included in the presentation. “There will be a lot of slides showing what the trip was like," Club Adviser Miss Karen Zwiers explained, “and whatjt was like to be in a car caravan.” 1 Sales Gimmicks , Used To Pay ! Yearbook Debt MV Current Events Called Rap Class By Pam Hammond To boost sales and to create a better yearbook are the two goals of M.V.’s yearbook staff. One way they intend to boost sales is by electing a Queen and King from the class that sells the most yearbooks in the high school. A Prince and Princess will be elected the same way by the higher selling class in the Junior high. Miss Laurie Kendrick, sponsor, and the group boast that this year s yearbook will be one of the best ever. Selling ads is the present prbject, and they have sold many to pay off a debt that has collected over several years. With this selling, and charging $5.50 for yearbooks, the debt may soon be erased. By Bev Purchls and Julie Joppie Rap class is the nickname the Maple Valley Current Events class has been given by students. Larry Lenz watches over this class, for there is no real teaching to it because the students learn from their weekly readings and reports from "Newsweek" and "Time" magazines. They also hand in three newspaper clippings every Friday. Students do all the talking and discuss the topics, making the "rap class” nickname clear.

White is a program coor­ dinator, assisting scoutmasters and scouts in planning activities which range from camping to public services to detailed scientific studies.

Feb. 6 was Boy Scout Sunday and scouts attended church as units, dressed in uniform. During Boy Scout Week boys are also urged to participate in wearing uniforms to school; many troops are building window' displays for stores. The Grand Valley Council Klondike Derby is scheduled for Feb. 12. Boys race sleds and cam awards for quickly demon­ strating different skills during the race. A training program for the Grand Valley Council is set for Feb. 19. This is a training op­ portunity for all scooters and cubbers of the Council. In April scouts will display troop projects at the Thomapple Scout Show. April 15. Some troops have already begun work The Cub Scout Pow Wow is an event which cubs await yearly. It is planned for March 4 at the Wayland high school. The Thornapple District is cooperating with the Wakazoo District in organizing the ac­ tivities. The Grand Valley Council owns 1,400 acres of land on two private lakes north of Barryton, where scouts can camp for one week in the summer and on weekends during the winter. Several area troops take advantage of this facility regularly. Another activity in which scouts frequently participate is swimming. Saturday, Feb. 5 was a typical weekend, when Southeastern and Methodist troops traveled to the YMCA in Battle Creek to splash around and practice swimming strokes. The scouting organization is highly structured. The state is divided into Councils, then into Districts, each of which has a chairman and commissioner. Mel Haight, of Hastings, is the Thomapple District chairman, and White is the commissioner. John Flood of Hastings is the training chairman, Kdy Sinkler, finance chairman; James Brown, camping chairman; Ron Vandenberg. Middleville, organization and extension chairman; and Glen Fryde is the advancement chairman. All have people working under them who are not necessarily scout­ masters.

A scout troop is headed by the senior patrol leader, a boy in charge of all the troop patrols. There are usually four patrols in a troop, with eight to ten boys, and each has a patrol leader. The scoutmaster and his assistants and committees function as troop advisors. Cub scout troops are divided into dens, usually two to four in a troop. Each den also has a leader. Each troop is required to have a webelos den. composed of boys aged 10. Also in the scouting organization there is a fraternal organization, upper camping people, officially called Order of the Arrow. The motto is “Service with a Smile” and the group is necessity for camping trips and other scouting activities, * composed of scouts elected by fellow troop members, based on camping, but stressing service projects. They are boys who do more than what is expected or asked oft them. White has a film available to anyone interested in scouting which explains the complex organization.

Food Stamps Help Area People To Eat Better The U.S. Food Stamp Program is designed to help low-income people have better and healthier diete, and during January. 2,760 Barry County residents par­ ticipated in the program The Department of Social Services reported that 7Z3 Barry families were in the program, spending 136.202.90 for food stamps worth a total off 150,064. During 1971, 1670,875 in food stamps were circulated throuth the Barry area. The people participating paid $332,705 and the other $338,169 was received from the Federal government as a bonus There were 468 families receiving public assistance on the program here in January, and 255 families receiving stamps which were not on public assistance. In the program, families exchange their food money for food coupons of higher value. The bonus or free coupons, paid by the Federal government, in­ crease the purchasing power of the household. Z Persons eligible include those with set maximum incomes and limited liquid assts. A person, to be eligible, may not earn more that $210 a month and have liquid assets of more than $1,000 A twoperson household maximum income would be $250. three persons, $290; four persons, $330. five, $370; six person family. $410; seven, $450, and eight. M90 Their liquid assets could not be mere than $1,500. Adjustments of income may be made for unusual expenses. The program really stretches the food dollar. A family of four earning less than $150 would pay $37 for $106 in coupons; earning less than $170, would pay M2 for $106 in food stamps. The bonus decreases as the income in­ creases, so a four-person household with income between $310 and $330 would pay $80 for the $106 in food stamps. Snowmobile Flip!

In Down Town Hastings! THE HASTINGS BANNERFebruary 14, 1972................... 3 �EDITORIAL ------------------------ by R. M. C.---------------------------The Mall Project is off the ground. At least the Hastings Chamber of Commerce with the backing of merchants up and down the street have presented a long range plan to the Hastings City Council that includes the immediate establishment of a Parking Mall on State Street between Michigan Avenue and Church Streets, with the choice between an angle or 90degree parking pattern to be determined by the City Engineer and the Chief of Police. Suggested date for reestablishment of the Mall is Feb. 21 The hope is that all parking meters can be removed from State. Church. Jefferson and Court Streets and Michigan Avenue To help the City recover a portion of the loss entailed by removal of meters from the above streets, a second part of the proposal will be the creation of a Parking Authority Commission which will work with the City in establishing more off-street metered parking areas Serving on this commission would be members selected from the City Council, the City Planning Commission and the Hastings Chamber of Commerce. The purpose of the Commission will be to evaluate and propose plans for additional off-street parking and the rerouting of arterial street traffic. The acquisition and financing of property owners be accomplished through the establishment of a special assessment district not to exceed $100,000 over a ten year period. It will also be up to the commission to develop plans in a manner that will be mutually agreeable to all concerned. At this writing. Monday morning, we cannot, of course, report on Council action It is otr hope, however, that the Mall be quickly re­ established either with or without metered parking, for the present, and with either an angle or 90-degree parking pattern to replace the present parallel system along Slate Street between Church Street and Michigan Avenue. A Parking Authority as proposed by the ('hamber could be of valuable service to the City not for ten years but indefinitely. A direct Presidential Primary is undoubtedly a step in the right direction It is a medium, if properly used, that can accurately reflect public opinion and preference in regard to presidential candidates However, the primary is. of itself, no cure-all. In state primaries here in Michigan the voting is usually very light—often 20 percent or less of those qualified to rote This means that if the presidential Cmary follows the same pattern, a small minority of the people will > e a major voice in the selection of presidential candidates at the national conventions We agree that the present method of selecting delegates for the national convention at the state conventions does not necessarily reflect the public wiB. However, if voters do not appreciate the real importance of a primary election and stay away from the polls in droves, ag is usually the case here in Michigan, a presidential primary will be no improvement over the present system-might even be worse. Remember, too. the cost of holding a primary election is considerable and if people fail to make use of this opportunity to express opinions, the expenditure will represent a useless waste of time and money. Whether or not a presidential primary turns out to be an im­ provement in the democratic process of government, depends en­ tirely on the voters W ith proper understanding and popular support, the presidential primary can be useful and constructive. With the voter apathy customary in Michigan, the presidential primary will fail in its purpose and thus represent a needles? expense. It is die attitude of the sum total of qualified voters who will determine whether or not the presidential primary in Michigan will be worth the cost. Ernest A Jones, chairman of an advertising agency of national scope recently put forward some views before a group newspaper executives that deserve considerably more than passing con­ sideration. There are, he pointed out. 93 million readers of American newspapers, totalling 75.6 per cent of all adults, including 33 million betw-een the ages of 18 and 34 and of these 16 million are between 18 and 24—the very cream. you might say of young America “How many of these millions.” he asks, “take drugs, commit crimes, riot, or express social alienation in so many ways—all well covered by newspapers and. of course, other media’ How many’ Very damned few. you may be sure “They are too busy." he said, “getting through school, working at a job. getting married, buying a bouse and car. starting that old American building block—the family. There is probably nothing less’ newsworthy in the dramatic definition of news than a young fellow hacking it with a two-months old baby and a thirty-year mortgage. '“'And yet," he continued, “there is something grippingly dramatic, and I think that drama deserves a more prominent place in the newspapers. No news, you say? And 1 say that with 93 million believing readers, anything the newspapers say is news IS news’ To the above, we say a hearty “AMEN.” Why is it that the dope user, the criminal, the rioter and the anti­ social agitator are the ones thought worthy of the feature stories and the big , juicy headlines'* Is there nothing newsworthy about the young people who take advantage of scholastic opportunities to establish fine records (and there are many of these tn every com­ munity in the state), of young people who voluntarily give their time in the interest of constructive community projects; of young people at work and play , of young people who, on their own. display unusual creative talent in the fields of mechanics, art and science? Newspapers, especially the metropolitan dailies, cover sports in great detail. However, since the crime objective of the educational system is to produce w'ell-trained individuals capable of becoming useful members of our democratic system, why not give more at­ tention in the news columns to scholastic achievements? If sports sections feature all-state elevens, basketball teams, etc., why not a little more attention to scholastic achievements worthy of state-wide notice? Crime and violence have a place in a balanced news coverage— but not to the near exclusion of everything else Along with the bad. in which only a small percentage of the total population is involved, the news spotlight should be directed more frequently than is now the case on items that are constructive rather than destructive and sensational. The objective of journalism should be to present a balanced picture of the daily scene, not one distorted in favor of crime, violence and destruction We admit that America is not all good Of equal importance, however, is the fact that America is not all bad. There is a broad fieldopen in journalism in this nation that today is hardly ever tapped What exactly happened in the case of the Howard Hughes autobiography case remains to be determined However, it does THE HASTINGS BANNER......... February It. 1972 appear that the McGraw-Hill Book Company was, in this instance, so intent on getting there first with a sensational scoop, that the firm failed to take proper precautions to protect its own interests and that of the American reading public against possible deception and fraud on the part of a clever writer and manipulator So far, the issue is very much in doubt and it will be interesting as this bizarre story unfolds to find what actually did happen. Even if McGraw-Hill loses out on the Hughes "biography’’, the concern may have material for a sensational and informative true story regarding its own involvement in the tangled situation that might enable them to recover part or all of their possible loss. Voice Of The People To the Miter. In the Banner issue of Jan. 20, there is a letter, regarding the letter we wrote on the facts of the early Pioneers of Baltimore township, by one, Charles Harthy. Our article, was not based on “hearsay" or anything but fact’ If you rely on a "kid" to give the Historical Society, facts, you have picked the wrong KID! How old is Charles Harthy? Just how much could he possibly know, except what he has "dreamed up,"? We regret to say, that he was the nephew of Mrs. William Cramer Sr., so as he was never around the Cramer home except when he wanted information, he just does not know what he is talking about. We were fortunate in being there when the original old pioneers were still alive, and our information is documented. B.C. Cramer was the first white man to own land in Hastings Town­ ship. He settled upon his land on what was then part Baltimore and partly Hastings4 township in 100 The land was claimed shortly thereafter, but Michigan was not yet a State. Therefore, he entered his land intent and went back to Ohio to earn money by practicing his trade as a sur­ veyor and blacksmith until he could go back to finish a log house in which he and many of his children lived. Times were very hard He had a bad crop the first iO.V- years he tried to raise enough wheat to pay for his land. Work was with oxen, and so it was not until 1850 that he got the land grant signed by the President. Where Mr. Harthy falls short is his quick temper. Many towns existed soon thereafter, which lasted only a few years These villages sometimes had three changes of name in 20 years. Mr. Harthy would do well to get his facts straight The village of Dowling had nothing to do with the spot where the village of Baltimore is, where now stands the Baltimore U.B. Church the P.O. was across the road, as Mrs. Bob Stutz's aunt told the press in an interview sometime ago, having been a Roush, she died this past year, but knew her business about old times, and we know she could have told this were she here today Mr Harthy owes us an apology Those of us who formed the original Barry County Historical would not even consider anything he has said revelant! Most of the present officers were not even in or born in Barry County Read your back history. I have it for 140 years!

Feb. 4, called on citizens to be alert to the increasing problems facing our en­ vironment. This alertness is needed on the local level as well as the national and international level. Leach is executive director of the Michigan United Con­ servation Clubs. He has ex­ tensive background in a variety of fields in the general area of conservation. The basic problem of en­ vironmental pollution is people and where they live Leach stated. This problem is primarily one for the more wealthy nations since these nations use a dispropor­ tionate amount of earth's resources. Leach reminded his listeners that citizens should be involved in these concerns. When they do act individualshave power to change things because most govern­ ments are responsive to citizen's concerns.

This year the annual publication is composed of 80 pages of poetry, short stories, cartoon character, and plays. All of the articles in the lapses were contributed by Lakewood students "I don't think any freshmen put in anything." said Mrs. Doris Sleeman "The majority of the contributors were Seniors " Mrs. Sleeman has been giving a lot of time toward getting the publication assembled. Her first semester Creative Writing class was largely concerned with the publication and assembly of the booklet during the last week of first semester Nancy Frank, a senior and third year art student, drew the Lapses cover. The covers, printed on pink 4>r blue paper, showed an airplane with "Pride 72" written on the side. Nancy has also given a lot of spare time assembling the Lapses Altogether, over 45 students have contributed their talents and time toward making this year’s Literary Lapses a com­ plete success.

Main dross and costal skirts Live For Today, Student Says ’JVs interested. 9 Hotel Hastings 945-5321 In answer to the past week s Accent Editorials, I am in favor of keeping our Prom relatively unchanged. It’s true that proms are ex pensive, both individually and from the viewpoint of a class. But has anyone ever stopped to think that all the girls don’t have to wear Dior originals, and that most guys would look just as great in a sharp suit as in a tux? Although classes might have a problem financing a prom, whether held in the school or at another location, they don’t have to. A lot depends on the organization and management Why complain that the prom is crummy? Get in there and do As for the idea of a rock band vs an orchestra, it’s up to the class members. Personally. I have plenty of opportunities to go to rock dances, and I enjoy them, but all through school. I’ve looked forward to the Prom. It's my Senior year, and the Prom will fill a big page on my memories of life. It seems onlyappropriate that we keep the one traditional dance of the year unchanged, musically Although I do know how to waJtz, I admit many don’t, but has everyone forgotten the simple three-step’’ I’d hate to see the Prom completely fall apart, when a little bit of effort on everyone’s part could really make it better than ever.

What would you say if someone informed you that you had just won the Betty Crocker Homemaking Award? "You’ve got to be out of your mind,’’ Marsha McWhorter retorted to Mrs. Richards when the statement was addressed to her. But she wasn't. , In addition to the awards for school, state, and national Homemakers of Tomorrow, a special $1,000 nutrition scholarship has been added to the Betty Crocker search program this year. During the 18 years since the program's inception, enrollment has totaled over eight and onequarter million, and with this year's grants, scholarship awards > will reach almost $2 million.

When Mrs. Richards was questioned about the nature of the test, she said smilingly: "I knew that Marsha was capable of winning the award, because of her comments in class, and her home life. I knew that she could do it." Marsha was asked about some of her homemaking. She stated that the best way to get grass stain, gravy, and grape juice out of a white shirt is with a pair of scissors." Frozen T.V dinners make the ideal meal when you add the personal touch of salt and pep­ per, she was heard saying. Marsha confided that she had never taken a Home Ec. class in her entire life. She developed her skills through trial ana error "Mostly error." she said, and she ■ learned to be a gourmet when her mother began working as a night nurse. It was either cook or starve, she chuckled. Ar.d so Marsha starved, until she learned the wonders of canned spaghetti, and frozen pot pies. Does Marsha have any near future plans to put her bomemaking abilities to use? "Not unless I have an ac­ cident." she said. Besides the title of Lakewood Betty Crocker Homemaker, Marsha received a silver charm and was automatically eligible for a state comparison of scores, and the possible title of Betty Crocker State Homemaker.

The boys and their fathers had been building the racing cars from kits supplied by the pack. Exact specifications had to be followed, but the boys were able to let their imagination run wild when it came to shaping and painting. There were several wild designs, and it was a shame there can be only one winner of the best design and most original trophies. First, boys*in each den raced against each other to find a champion. Ribbons for first, second and third place in each Den were awarded. Then all of the boys in the Pack raced. They raced three at a time, with each group of three racing three times. The first two cars went into the winners bracket and the third one went into the consolation bracket. Thia gave each boy at least nine chances to nn his car. Ribbons and trophies went to: Den One—Brad King, first; Jim Foote, second. Lee Camp­ bell, third. Den Two—Tim Hall, first; Jeff Hall, second; Brent FOx, third. Den Three—Roger Trick.first; Tom Kelly, second; Dave White, third. , L _ . Den Five—Scott Johnson, first; Mark Spencer, second; Rick Olson, third.

It seems to me thru the above service some escort service could be provided. It could even be an adult for the young driver to give their time escorting older folk rather than speeding thru town. I have certainly enjoyed the "Stop” signs on the Main St. or let me say I have enjoyed Main St. since they were put up. The adult population is the life blood of the city thru their taxes-so I hope Hastings thinks of them and their dilemma. With great sincerety-I am a citizen of my favorite town Hastings. Mary Bradford. EDITORIAL --------------------- by R. M. C.------------------------Hastings Community is interested in the Parking Mall question and a majority favor the establishment of one here. In line with this a definite proposal was made to the city council by the Hastings Chamber of Commerce representing the jetail and professional in­ terests involved * , In our opinion, the answer civen by the Council in response to this request was fair and reasonable for all concerned—the merchants through a special assessment under a plan of their own making are to reimburse the City for an equivalent of the lost parking meter income from now through June This income is already written into the budget. The amount involved, somewhere in the neighborhood of five thousand dollars should be well within range of attainment Thus, the next step is clearly up to the merchants. As soon as the funds are turned over to the City, the meters will be removed and either angle or 90 degree parking stalls marked along the two State Street blocks between Church Street and Michigan Avenue The way is now clear and If the plan does not go through, the City Government will not be at fault The retailers, we hope, can show the same sort of unanimity from here on in that they have exhibited to date. . . . One must keep in mind that when dealing with a governmental body such as the Council, nothing gets accomplished as rapidly as some might wish but if there is good will on both sides, useful things do get (tone. Some of our readers have indicated that, although they favor the Mall, they are tired of hearing editorial comment concerning same. We are well aware of this situation. However, we consider the Mall to be of such importance to Hastings that we believe the matter should not be dropped until something definite is in being. That goal, hopefully, appears to be in sight—and then we will be only too happy to turn elsewhere for a topic. As the full facts of the Irving hoax come to light, one can’t help but wonder how an experienced and worldly wise publishing firm such as McGraw-Hill Book Company coukl nave been taken in so completely by Clifford Irying. a comparatively unknown writer. From the start, it seemed incredible that a wealthy recluse such as Howard Hughes would have entrusted intimate biographical material to one such as Irving when he could have commanded the “cream of the crop” to do his editorial work Also, the fact that $650,000 was turned over to Irving without proper safeguards, indicates that eagerness to get on the market with a scoop replaced normally sound judgment. Whether or not McGraw-Hill will ever be abfe to get back even a major share of this money remains to be seen. All of this reinforces our conviction that too many books are being published these days, a majority of which are made up of inferior material, not carefully researched and. frankly, not worth reading. But with the presses must roll and with the aid of advertising promotions and reviews, many of which are apparently not written with a competently critical attitude (we recall, for example, how even the prestigeous N.Y. Times reviewers were taker in hook, line and sinker. “Naked Came The Stranger." a book that was, itself written as a hoax), the books do sell at profitable levels. We appreciated the response of Banner readers to the Questionnaire contained in last weeks issue. Answers are still drib­ bling in and they appear to be what we wanted, straighforward opinions, the only kind that will be a useful guide to us In our opinion. Robert Haldeman, an aide to President Nixon, was given an overly rough deal by certain segments of the media for going on the air and saying that some ol the critics of the President’s Viet Nam peace proposals are giving aid and comfort to the enemy. Haldeman, in this instance, is absolutely right. Why should the Hanoi delegates at the Paris Peace Conference bargain in good faith when a Senator George McGovern, or other of the super-doves, denounce the President’s proposals for all the world to hear With such sym­ pathetic friends, spreading the Hanoi doctrines here in America, they naturally conclude that all they have to sit and wait and hang on to U.S. prisoners and everything will come their way. It is the President who is responsible for foreign policy. The critics, such as McGovern are not. How can a delicate peace negotiation operation be expected to get results when every statement and proposal by the President is more loudly denounced by Americans in high position here than it is in Hanoi’’ If the President had had a little more support from these vocal critics or at least the benefit of their silence, it is more than probable that by this time a settlement would have been reached All that has been accomplished to date is agreement on the shape and size of the bargaining table • and if the critics over here had jumped into the act a bit sooner, maybe even that would still be a point of contention Weappreciate.the fact that, under the First Amendment, anyone has the right of free speech at any time he chooses. However’ the right of free speech does assume a sense of responsibility in the use of this tremendous privilege that has too often been conspicuous by its absence during these past several years Actually, we doubt that any two of the super dove critics such as McGovern, Muskie. Humphrey. Kennedy, etc., could agree on a factual and clearly defined set of proposals to end America's involvementln Viet Nam or to suggest a schedule of withdrawal that would get the troops out of there faster and in safety than the one President Nixon has had in operation for many months’ To The Editor: I cannot see why the merchants want free parking on the Main St. Personally. 1 think this should be premium parking I would pay more for parking in front of the stores for the convenience of being able to be in and out in a hurry If they promote free parking some will fill up in front of the stores and stay all day and it will be worse than at present. I believe in angle parking, as it is quicker and safer than parallel for most women anyway. If they want to give free parking let this be the farthest from the stores for those who really want to save and To the Editor: There is no better paper than the "Hastings Banner’ to put my complaint in. I do hope you print this in large letters so the person that dumped those "2 cute un­ wanted puppies" out on Charlton Park Rd. will see it. How could you sleep the nite you left those poor "helpless pups” to freeze and starve? Would you like your babies put in freezing temperatures like that? What kind of a person are you? That is really a "Cruelty to Animals”. They give so much and ask so little. Two small boys saved their little lives. One of the 'little fellows took them home, one under each arm and said I’d hate to be left out in the cold like these /two pups The parents of this boy let him keep them, fed them and gave them a home (Thanks to them), but, other dogs may not be that lucky. Why do you think we have a Humane Society? You probably don’t know the meaning of Humane. Look it up in the dictionary. I doubt a person of your "caliber" would understand the true meaning. We are on the look out for people like you and see that you are prosecuted. Dog Defender To the Editor: I am writing this through the sanction of our local Chamber of Commerce. You are well aware of the fact, we in these com­ munities (Castleton & Maple Grove) are very well cared for from fire and ambulance service through our local fire depart­ ment. It gives us great assurance to know that they are willing, capable arid trained to serve us well. In as much as no ambulance tax has ever been spread (nor can be spread for at least two more years) it puts a real burden on the department at the present time. They are in need of a new ambulance and some more ef­ ficient equipment. We, who really appreciate the many hours that these men put in for the training to Qualify for ambulance work and the hours of dedicated service operating an ambulance for us, wish to ask various individuals and organizations to consider making a generous donation to help our boys out in time of need. Won't you make a libera) donation soon, please, to the Ambulance Fund? Donations may be made to me or at the Security National Bank. Thanking you, I am Yours Truly, Geneva Brumm, Sec’y Nashville Chamber of Commerce really want some exercise when they are not hurried. People will walk miles at the malls and think nothing of it. However, they are provided adequate resting places which I think our stores do not provide for the elderly shoppers. Elderly folks who might love to go to town with the younger shoppers cannot sit and wait or visit anywhere. If this sort of thing could be provided it might bring more folks to town. If such a place could be provided by the city or the merchants and staffed with volunteers to help with transportation to and from town 4.........

A man's kind of car. Right? Not completely. Women, too, go for Chrysler. And, most often, for the same reasons as men. They like the good looks. They like the roominess. And who wouldn't? Automotive Industries reports that the 72 Chrysler has the largest Interior of anyr1972 U.S. car. But women, especially, like the way they can count on Chrysler to get them where they want to go... without a lot of trouble. Every Chrysler Is built with a commitment to deep-down quality. Every Chrysler Is built to last. Isn't that the kind of car people really want? Men and women alike. We think so.

But they are limited by the critical shortage of persons pledged to donate their kidneys or other organs following their own deaths The Hastings Jaycee Auxiliary is distributing a free brochure explaining bow to donate kidneys or other organs for tran­ splantation. The brochure contains a Uniform Donor card for prospective donors to sign and carry with them. When co-signed by two witnesses, the card becomes a legal document, ac­ ceptable in 50 states and the District of Columbia under the Uniform Anatomical Gift Act. If a donor changes his mind later, he can tear up the card. With each brochure, the Kidbey Foundation encloses a tiny sticker labeled “Kidney Donor." The sticker is to be applied to the driver's license, to make the donor s wishes known to hospital authorities im­ mediately in the event of ac­ cidental death Any healthy person over 18 years of age can qualify as a donor. In the event of his death, his donation can save two lives because each transplant recipient needs only one kidney to survive. Copies of the “Organ Donor Program” brochure may be obtained by contacting Mrs. Connie Egleston at 721 Powell Road, Hastings or the Kidney Richard's Specialties Rubber Stamps At Hodges Jewelry lor Wed., Thurs.,& Friday Only r l A All Diamonds and.

State Hastings Faandaliao of Michigan. 3378 Washtenaw, Ann Arbor 481M. Mrs. Egleston said kidney disease is a primary or secon­ dary cause of one out of every five deaths in Michigan. A victim of kidney failure must have a transplant or regular treatment on an aritifdal kidney in order to survive. "In Michigan hospitals, a total of about 100 kidney transplants arc performed each yeer,,r Mrs. Egleston said. "But there is always a large group of patients with no living relative who can be a donor. They must be kept alive by kidney machines while awaiting a transplant from a deceased donor. "However.” Mrs. Egleston explained, ”if every kidney machine is in use, then other patients must be turned away. In the United States today, more than half the victims of kidney failure die because they cannot receive the transplant or kidney machine treatments they need for survival."

He points out, for example, that the shortweight of as little as' a quarter ounce on a pound of meat which sells for $1.39 a pound could result in an annual loss to a family of more than 8100. Statistics compiled by Sealer Hankey show that of the thousands of weighing reports analysed, the greatest incidence shortweight In meats, meats. of short weight occurs in n fluid -UJ -dairy ‘-t— — products, solid <*■<"' dairy products, and produce and flour products. Commodities with fairly good records are candies, canned and bottled goods, baked goods, and frozen foods. However, it must be remem­ bered that the Sealer s service also protects the merchant. “While our main duty is to protect the buyer and insure that he gets fair value for what he purchases," he said, "we have also found instances where an inaccurate scale, if left un­ corrected. could have put a store owner out of business " He cites as an example the fact that a single scale which makes a one ounce error while making 100 weighings a day for 300 days a year of a commodity costing Si .00 per pound will result in a Toss to the merchant of $1,875. For the industry packager the consequences can be far more disastrous. The Scale Manufacturers Association notes that a cereal food manufacturer packaging 50 packages of breakfast food per minute will produce more than 19 million packages per year.

We shot a his early match 7-6, but had his little better, too, than in our first man in a pinning position at the game with them, but we didn’t buzzer—he needed a couple more shoot up to our average.” Coach Strong praised Waverly’s defensive work. too. Waverly used a box and one zone, with a man to man against high scoring Jerry Kessenich. “I thought Jerry handled this very well, and the rest of the team scored when it was needed. We had Doug Welton playing on Craig Wilkes and he held him to 16 points. Wilkes had scored 25 in our first game. Jerry played a good defensive game holding Sam Cdentino to 16. We had only 15 team turnovers, so we’re smoothing out a little bit. I like to work for 15 as the maximum turnovers in a game, and we’re averaging about 16. Rick Rohde came off the bench and was the deciding factor in the second quarter, scoring four buckets to give us the lead." Coach Strong said that even though his charges were set for a tight press at the start of the fourth quarter, Waverly’s tight defense “upset our game and the Warriors went ahead, 53-52. We kept our composure and came back and scored when we had to. One advantage of playing a lot of close games is that the boys get used to the late pressure They didn't blow up as they did in a Congratulations also go to Maple Valley's Gary Shipman who blistered the net for 48 points Friday as the Lions Whipped Springport, 99-60.

My name is Rae Hansen and I am a co-op student from Maple Valley. I work at Pennock Hospital as a laboratory aid under Leonard Tripp and Mrs. Betty Gaskill. My jobs vary, but usually there is laboratory equipment to wash, filing to be done and the out­ patient room to stock. Often I G-rform chemistry tests such as ood sugars, BUN’s and elec­ trolytes. I also assist by drawing blood and will learn to do other lab work. I immensely enjoy my work and the people I work with. They have helped me in many ways. Learning on the job is one of the best ways to learn to get along with people. Every day people of all ages and backgrounds come into the lab and I find it in­ teresting to talk with each per­ son. I hope anyone who has a chance to participate in this program will take advantage of the opportunity. Co-op, in my opinion, is a very valuable learning experience and I’m appreciative of the chance I’ve had to participate in it.

With this money they plan to buy a gift for the school at the end of the year. A committee has been formed, who are now in­ vestigating the possibility of furnishing the courtyard at MV with shrubs.

More visitors arrive, some seen, some unseen.

This sense of equality also bears responsibility, the responsibility of acting like an adult and working like one. Secondly, I have learned to handle and maintain my own money. I am in full charge of it and the chore of spending it. I have learned how to budget the money, how to save and pay my debts. Lastly, probably most Im­ portantly. I have learned about people. Working around, with and for them I have had the opportunity to learn to anticipate actions and words beforehand and have a response ready. I have learned that people who are social hypocrites basically want to obtain a favorable working atmosphere. I have found one doesn’t have to like someone to work in harmony with him. I now realize it is much wiser to hold words when angered than to speak and later regret it. My boss in the housekeeping department is Jack VanHouten.

Zion Lutheran Has Wednesday Services Ixmten services are being held 7:30 Wednesdays at Zion Lutheran Church, Velte Road, Woodland. Special music and chancel dramas, presented by members of the congregation, are features of these services. Lent comprises the 40 working days before Easter. The word itself means "lengthening,” in reference to the coming of the Spring season. However, in the Christian Church the Lenten 'season provides a time for meditation and reflection on the meaning of the passion and death of Jesus Christ and for preparation to hear the glad Gospel of Easter. The public is welcomed to worship at Zion Lutheran on Wednesday evenings during Lent.

Cases' dogs that can be seen at the Case home at 4807 W. Sheffield Road, Hickory Comers. tail? At the Richard Case residence. 4807 W. Sheffield Rd, Hickory Comers, you will see just about that. Dick and Sally and their four children. Vickie. Mark, Kim and Mike, are raising and training their dog sled team and as result enjoying lhe Winter sport of dog sledding. The team consists of two male and two female A.K.C. Siberian Husky’s. Three of the dogs have blue eye's. "King Chez-Ami" is a bi-eye having one brown and one blue eye. % As of this writing "Nebo Shawnee" is temporarily retired from the team as she is expecting several additions to the new canine family about the middle of February. She will be missed because she and King are good lead dogs Training a team is not very difficult, but takes patience. The Cases have what is known as a gee-haw lead dog team. "Lets go" gets them started, and ■ Haw turns them left "Gee" turns them right, "Whooa" stops them and "Tighten Up Hike" makes the lead dogs holo the line tight if you want to hook more dogs to the sled. A gee-haw team is vecy important on unfamiliar trails. King Chez-Ami is a wonder _dog, weighing only 60 pounds, he pulls a 42 pound sled with Dick aboard weighing 175 pounds, a total 217 pounds and whips the sled and Dick at a very fast speed, all Dick wants to endure. Nebo's Panda, a five month old male, is doing greet on the sled. Get the harness and lead out and Little Panda goes ape. It's bom in them, and they love It. Misty, a female, is a great little dog on the sled. Running the dogs for practice is done at their place in Hickory Comers. They are not racing this year, but expect to next season. Running them on trails, when there is snow, is done away from home The Siberian Husky is a medium size working and show type dog. Though originating in Northern Siberia, they adjust well to warmer climates and indoor living. They have proven themselves to be singularly adaptable as house pets being responsive to members of the family and friends. Barking is minimal compared to other breeds and by nature they are non atjessive but will give an excellent account of themselves if attacked. Because of their size and appearance they will make an efficient watch dog. They are gentle, affectionate, and make excellent companions for children. The Siberian Husky is a beautiful, graceful, powerful animal having the charac­ teristics and quality required to make them Grand Champions in the show ring, and for family recreational purposes such as dog sledding or racing as well as an ideal family pet. Stop by and hop aboard and see for yourself what these tail waggin snowmobiles can do. Wonder Dog—Mrs. Sally Case is with King Chez-Ami, whom she says is a wonder dog. King weighs only 60 pounds but pulls a 42 pound sled with Mrs. King aboard. Mr. and Mrs. Case ex­ pect to race their dogs next year. k Yvonn* Geiger, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Geiger of 10031 Brown Road, Lake Odessa. a junior music major at Central Michigan University, was presented in a student recital Thursday, Feb 17, in Recital Hall at Mt.

According to Police Officers Austin Loftus and Roderick Tietz, lhe bus. driven by Gordon Cooper, 32, R3 Hastings, was traveling east on Clinton at abqut 2O-2& miles an hour. Cooper told the officers that he was driving through the Church Street intersection when he saw the child dart into the path of lhe bus. He applied his air brakes and stopped. Skid marks were 42 feel, 9 inches. He had already hit the boy when the brakes grabbed. There was only one visible skid mark, that made by the left rear dual. Witnesses said the boy had ran from the sidewalk and cut across the grass, angling toward the crosswalk. One witness said he entered the street without looking, was hit and thrown into the air and back towards lhe edge of the street. The bus hit the boy with the right front bumper and fender. The report said that on the southeast corner of the fan tersection there is a utility pole and behind this there is a large pickup box for mail, and on a post behind that box is a mail box. These could have obstructed the vision of the bus driver In seeing the boy before entering the street, the report said. The brakes on the bus were examined, and were found sound but somewhat out of adjustment, as the right rear would not lockup tight.

Schools have to accept students from the Kent County Schools’ To annex to Kent Intermediate School District has no bearing on whether students from other schools will be bused to the T.K. School District. If busing comes, it will come through the courts and busing will be forced on all school districts, no matter what Intermediate School District they belong to. The distance between Grand Rapids and Middleville would discourage busing because of the distance and time students would have to ride the bus. If parents are disturbed, the proper thing to do is to write your legislator and give your feelings on forced busing. If enough pressure is pul on the legislators they will pass legislation that will stop forced busing. What will the difference be in millage between Kent Intermediate and Barry Intermediate? There is a difference in the millage levied between Kent In­ termediate and Barry Intermediate.

M. C.-------- ;----------------Hastings merchants have already raised sufficient funds to guarantee that the City can be failry compensated for loss in meter revenue between now and July 1 if the Parking Mall is re-established here on a free-parking basis. During a trial run in December, the Mall proved very popular, even though at that time no attempt was made to mark the parking stalls As a result, haphazard patterns developed ranging from 45degree to straight in Yet the convenience to shoppers was such that the Mall idea won overwhelming approval. It is incorrect to say that the^Mall is for the exclusive benefit of merchants in the central business district. Rather the Mall proved to be and could be again a convenience and a benefit to everyone who shops in Hastings-and. it should be kept in mind that a great majority of these shoppers are also citizens of Hastings They are as mu$Ji a part of the Mall concept as are the merchants, themselves , Many cities have learned too late, the importance of a healthy central business district As a result large shopping centers have sprung up outside the city limits constructed on comparatively cheap land and able to offer acres of free parking As a result, trade has been siphoned away from the central city, leaving in the wake vacant store fronts and depreciated property that cuts noticeably into sum total of city tax revenue That hasn't happened here yet, but it could. Hastings City does, we believe, have a definite interest in assisting to create conditions that will help to keep the central business district alive and bustling. The reestablishment of a Mall on a continuing basis is a logical first step to take. In their contest with Centerville High School, our sympathy is all with Amish fathers in the socalled truancy dispute Probably within the strict letter of the law. School Principal Ronald Lahman was within his rights in bringing suit against this religious community whose record in most respects is superior to any other community in the state. But along with "the letter of the law/’ there is also the factor of good judgement in applying same. In this respect, Principal Lahman left much to be desired. What has the average Michigan Public School to offer Amish voungsters in pursuing their way of life, that the Amish, themselves, are aot already providing'* The Amish live and work according to their religious beliefs, as is their Constitutional right AU they ask is to be left alone. Over the years they have proved to be industrious, peaceful, law-abiding/ people who pay their share of taxes and who look after their own welfare problems without expense to the state Juvenile crime, delinquency, abuse of drugs, drunkenness, arson, vandalism, etc., are practically unknown in the Amish community. Should Amish youngsters be compelled to attend public school and learn about these things’* Possiblv instead of compelling the Amish to learn about our way of living, it might be profitable for us to study the virtues that have gi v*n them such an excellent record of conduct and stability. Admittedly not aU of us could adhere to the Amish way of life, nor in a varied society such as ours, this is not even desirable However, the fact that we do not wish to adopt their way of life provides no valid reason for compelling them to adopt ours The spokesman for the Amish said their children have been kept home so they could learn the arts of living for a self-sufficient life. These arts, he said, among other things, included homemaking, cooking and canning for the girls and farming, carpentry and related trades for the Amish boys. It is hard to find fault with such a program Although you can probably fault them in some respects, the Amish, over the years, have demonstrated how to live in peace with themsei ve; and with their neighbors. Why try to break up a combine like that in total or in part for any reason whatsoever’* President Nixon's reception in China has been so unexpectedly cordial and friendly, that it may lead to false hopes over here as to what can be accomplished If. within these few days of initial contact after twenty years of hostile feeling, during which there was no direct communication, China and the United States can define their points of difference (and there are many) in a frank and friendly manner and if they agree to continue direct communications between Peking and Washington, that is about as much as can be expected for the present It appears doubtful that there will be a full resumption of diplomatic relations between the two nations either now or in the immediate future Aside from many minor points of difference, there is one major one-the insistance of Red China that the Nationalist Government of Formosa be returned to mainland rule There on this island area, millions of Chinese fled the mainland to escape Communist rule. The Nationalists who were former allies during World War II, were promised American protection while establishing their own govern­ ment. In this, they have been highly successful, achieving a degree of progress and self sufficiency that has amazed everyone. If the U.S. suddenly withdrew all military and naval support to please Peking, the result could well be a blood bath of major proportions. During the so-called "cultural revolution” on the mainland a few years ago. the slaughter of Communist Chinese who differed on points of ideology was appalling What then would be the fate of the minority Nationalist Government which has always op­ posed Communistirule and whose citizens were determined to protect their own independence by migrating to a new territory to begin life anew** The answer is not a pleasant one to contemplate Until the United States nas guarantees from Mainland China that the people on Formosa can have the status of an independent province without interference or harassment from Peking, it is dif­ ficult to see how the United Stales can honorably withdraw from its pledge. On the other hand, the Formosa government, must, itself, disavow any and all intentions of ever invading the mainland, an idea that has never had U.S. support Then, too, the United States has a problem in making it clear to Red China, that the presence of American forces in the Formosa area is not intended to be in any way a threat to the mainland government. If all of this sounds complicated and difficult—It is! On the other hand. Red China is in no position to force the Hanoi government to conclude negotions with us regarding the release of prisoners. China, although now furnishing supplies to North Vietnam, has been a historic enemy of the Vietnamese people. China, who is competing with Russia for influence in Southeast Asia, is in no position to threaten withdrawal of military supplies so long as the soviets continue to offer support The minimum that can be accomplished as a result of President Nixon's visit to China appears to be a reopening of lines of com­ munication. an agreement for a cultural exchange between the two nations of authors, scholars, scientists and agriculturist*; a provision to enable American journalists, at least in limited number, to move THE HASTINGS BANNER March I. 1*72 about with a reasonable degree of freedom in China with the same provision for Chinese journalists who wish to report on conditions in the United States This •minimum," we believe. will come near to being the maximum we can expect from these opening Summit Talks. Even so. tension between the two nations is likely to be relieved and China, which has long been a mysterious quantity for those of us in the Western World, should now begin to lake on a more precise definition as facts replace speculation and hearsay. On the other hand, as lines of communication are opened, the Chinese may revise certain bitter and hostile opinions that are prevalent over there concerning the United States. Thus, if even this minimum is achieved as a result of the Summit talks in Peking, certain world tensions can be relaxed sufficiently to promote a long-range feeling of optimism that could produce developments of a much more substantial nature.

The Editor To the Editor: In reading the letter To the Editor in last week’s Banner about the puppies that were dropped off, it came to mind that maybe they might belong to us. On Sunday, Feb. 13, our two female St. Bernard puppies came up missing while we were gone away for the afternoon We have searched all around the premisses and our neighbors We just feel now, that some one must have picked them up, because they were such loveable puppies If the lady that wrote the letter could call 367-2850, maybe we could talk about it to see what kind they were. Sincerely. Lyle Neil R3 To the Editor: We recently read Mr. Guen­ ther's endorsement of Governor Milliken's proposal of state in­ come-tax supported school*. TTiis is quite understandable since it will more than likely Increase his already inflated salary. Do the voters of Barry County realise that business and in­ dustry supply more than half of the funds needed to run the Hastings School system? Do the voters realize that as lan­ downers, they hold a check over the bludgeon of school costs by withholding their property taxes up to three years’ This check may soon be removed Land (and the structures on it) is still the best representation of wealth in Michigan.

Plan Intensive Drive To Push Drop-In-Center March 3-19 are two big weeks for Hastings and the Hastings Drop­ In Center. During these weeks a fund-raising campaigan will be carried out, in an attempt to reach all segments of the community for support The finance committee for HDIC, headed by Jim Stevens, an­ nounces its plans to approach the entire community. Charles Collins heads the subcommittee for heavy industry. John Flood and his group will reach out to all civic clubs and churches. Another committee under Larry Reahm will cover local merchants and businesses. Nancy Larke and Gary Wear head up a group in charge of reaching the general public. Those working with civic organizations, churches, business and industry will be seeking direct gifts for this year’s use and also commitments to include the Drop-In Center in planning for the years ahead. Assemblies are being held at the high school and junior high to generate movement among students to involve themselves in fund­ raising projects, including a contest among classes during March 12­ 19 A special Porch Light canvass, March 15-16, will cover the whole community. Volunteers will be calling at every home, bringing an information sheet about the center and receiving donations. To date the center has $4,300 in its fund, working toward a goal of $13,000 for the first year of operation. This amount includes the purchase of a building, redocorating and furnishing it, and keeping the center going for the first year. It is planned to hire a full-time live-in director. His salary and living cost* are not included in the S13,to». This means this figure will have to be exceeded in the campaign, depending on the possibility that the building may be purchased by other sources. While the movement to establish the center may be slower than some would like, it is definitely alive and moving. During the time since the Hike to Middleville, planners for the center have been presenting the story of the center to various civic dubs and organizations. And the Finance Committee has been laying its plans for March 5-1* Without advertising at all, the center already has seven ap­ plications for the position of full-time director. Several organizations have or will have special activities to raise funds for the center. Community support, including the Hike, has been good and growing, and the center looks forward to that continuing support, especially during March 5-19. P.S.

The commissioner* also op­ posed diverting highway funds to larger cities for their mass transit needs. They went on record “in op­ position to the gasoline tax in­ crease as an undue burden to the citizens of Barry County and many other out-state coiaities.” Copies were sent to State senators and representatives Board Chairman Edward McPharlin reported that the contract requests of the Barry County Deputy Sheriffs Association would cost the county about 185,000 if granted Dog Warden Robert Lin­ derman reported that he traveled 2,959 miles during January, had answered 131 dog complaints, shipped 26 dogs for $39,16 cats for $16, receivea $30 in shelter fees and had disposed of 141 dogs.

Judge Mitchell pointed out that starting pay for persons with no experience in Social Services is substantially higher than the pay authorized for the probation officer of the Juvenile Court. "It is a matter of great concern to the people of this county because we have made a substantial investment in the training orthe court personnel with die use of both public and private funds . . He added that he believed it would be more economical and more beneficial to the children coming before the court "if we could retain our experienced and well trained personnel rather then to lose them to other jobs offering high pay."

The following reflection was prepared by Mrs. Robert Kane. • WHAT MY RELIGION MEANS TO ME” by Mrs Robert Kane When I think of what my religion means to me. qp many things come to my mind. I'm a Seventh-day Adventist I believe in the second coming of Christ. I also believe it will be very soon Believing this, my religion means just that much more to me. It means a lot of faith, hope and love. There is a lot of love in my religion. Both from Christ and for Him Life would be pretty empty and depressing without the faith I have in my religion. My belief in God has brought me thru some hard personal experiences, but the Lord has been there for me to believe in and see me thru In my religion I believe strongly in prayer. The Lord has answered so many for me. Not always as 1 have ask, but as He knew best. Tn Romans 8:28, God say's, “And we know that all things work together for good, to them that love God. to them who are called, according to His purpose". Notice, it does not say that all things are good Anyone who has looked around and ex perienced very much In this life is aware that all things are not good, but to the one that believes in God, all things do work together for good if we will let them. So 1 say. my religion means to me. hope, for a better life to come, faith, that I will share in that life and belief Something very concrete to believe in.

"But we could have some damage from Yellow Leaf Blight (YLB) if we can’t get the corn planted on time or if we have an abnormal growing season that keeps com from maturing by micKJeptember." he says In 1971. SCLBdid little damage in Michigan mostly because the summer was dry. This plus a relatively warm June and cool July and August limited spread of the blight. And because most farmers planted early, their com matured before blight damage could hit. “The blight situation in 1972 will also depend on the weather, but this time State farmers will be in better shape because they have more SCLB-resistant seed." says Rossman "Last year, they planted 30 to 35 percent of their acreage to *N’ cytoplasm seed, which is resistant to the *T race of SCLB." he says "In 1972. we expect to plant 80 to 90 percent seed with *N' cytoplasm “SCLB *T’ overwinters in Michigan, so it may be present in 1972. Warm, humid or wet weather could contribute' to its development A “Other leaf blights, such as yellow, eyespot and northern, could cause trouble “YLB has been widely prevalent in Michigan during the past three to four years but has not caused extensive damage." says Rossman. "Rs symptoms on leaves are nearly identical to those of SCLB so it is next to impossible to distinguish bet ween the two Undoubtedly some blight infections credited to SCLB have actually been YLB.

Seven flavors of real sour cream dressings, including Chive, 1000 Island, Smoky Bits, Bleu Cheese, Green Goddess, Cole Slaw and Tomato Horseradish, produced by Henri’s Food Products, Milwaukee, will be available to shoppers at a lower price with the seven cents off coupon in this week’s Banner. The manufacturer, Henri’s, researched several hundred homemakersand discovered that seven out of 10 jnade their own sour cream dressings. When testing Henri’s Sour Cream Salad Dressings, they found them to be ’as good as” or "much better” than their favorite homemade dressings, and “more like the kind you get in expensive French restaurants”. Henri’s home economist, Rosemary Zelenka, reports that most of these exotic dressings are used in several ways. For example, Henri’s Sour Cream Tomato Horseradish is frequently used on meats, fish and vegetables. The Sour Cream Smoky Bits or Chive are poured over hot baked potatoes or omelettes. Bleu Cheese makes broccoli, cauliflower or asparagus special. Because they have discovered that heat cooks away flavor and fades color, Henri's dressings are cold-blended, never cooked. Henri’s Fbod Products was founded by two women, Mrs. Helen Brachman and Mrs. Henrietta Mahler, 37 years ago. Both women still remain active in the business, daily tasting every batch of Henri’s salad dressing for flavor, texture and consistency. office at 313 N.

My name is Sharon Jenkins and I work on morning co-op as a dental assistant for Dr. Lee from 7:45 to 11:30 a.m. . , Some of the subjects that 1 have taken in school have helped me out for this job. English and Science classes have really helped me. Especially Speech class has helped, since I talk with different patients all morning Some know-how of a human's mouth is also helpful. Like what the soft and hard palate, molars are, plus where they are located. Some of my responsibilities each day are keeping the hygenist room clean for each new patient. I have to make sure that the patient's chart, x-rays, and a tray of the right instruments are reach- for each patient. I have to hand the lastruments to Dr. Lee, and what-ever else he wants me to do 1 also disinfect the in­ struments after they are used, and when dry take care of them. I have both every-day duties and weekly duties. I've learned how to make silver fillings, front fillings, im­ pressions for dentures, crowns, bridges, and partials. I've learned what teeth correspond with what number For example; like yoyr four wisdom teeth are numbers 1, 16. 17, and 32. I’ve learned what all faces of the tooth are called, and how to chart different cavities and fillings on it. If you are interested in any kind of dental work, I suggest that this would be a good op­ portunity to see how well you like that kind of work. If you like a challenge, meeting people, learning new things, and keeping busy, this job might be meaningful to you.

The video-tape camera is an aid that employs sight and sound, so important for complete comprehension. Instant replay allows for repeated review of any portion of a game, match or aspects of an event, so difficult segments may be more easily understood. Tapes allow presentation of games or illustrations for future use. The video camera is easy to operate, because it is able to pick up picture and sound. There is no processing an no waiting and you can see what you've recorded. The tapes can be played back, erased or re-used hundres of times without loss of quality. This camera, purchased by the Varsity Club, cost 11649.75.

Is it our Armed Forces? No. Is it our fiovemment? It's not that either. I happens to be our much seen, but abused flag. Have you ever wondered what the colors of the flag stand for? The alternating red and white stripes represent the thirteen original states. The red is for hardiness and courage, while the white is for purity and innocence. The blue background stands for vigilance, perseverance and justice. The stars are for each state in our illustrious country. Many men have fought and died to keep that piece of cloth flying. So seeing someone burning the American flag turns my stomach. When they bum the flag, that, to me, is equal to saying that they want the U.S. to be communist. By Denise Grant Maple Valley High School The greatest illness of today doesn’t affect the body but the mind. It has more power to destroy than cancer, and it ef­ fects nearly everyone in some form. It's called APATHY. The definition is lack of interest or concern but it means much more. Apathy is going to club meetings, church, basketball games, classes and student council meeting, and con­ tributing nothing. The disease is eventually fatal. It destroys the capabilities of the mind, and emotions. It reduces men to animals who eat, sleep and breathe It creates a habitat from a nation. The only CURE is living, working, speaking, thinking, loving, seeing, and believing in something enough to fight for it. Miss Homemaker Shocked When Told Of Winning MV Award By Debbie Wright What would you do if a coun­ selor came up to you and said, “Guess what; you’re our Miss Betty Crocker Homemaker of Tomorrow!" “I was shocked," Ruth Hubka claimed, who was chosen from 30 senior girls who took the test Dec 7. "I was happy of course, but pretty surprised!" Awarded with a silver medallion. Ruth will now com­ pete with other semi-finalists throughout the state If her test scores meet the finals she will be honored with a sizeable scholarship. Among Ruth's favorite hobbies are cooking, sewing, singing, laughing and talking (which may be what she accomplishes most!). She has taken home ec. classes here, but believes she has learned more at home Cooking? It seems our new Miss Homemaker is best at this. Her specialities are cakes, cookies and pies. Winning three 1st places in pie competition in 1970, she followed up in 1971 with three 1st places with her cookies at the Ionia Free Fair. But as always, there have to be some flops along the line. Even the perfect homemaker makes them. “I remember when I made a batch of doughnuts and forgot the baking powder," Ruth revealed. "My little brother commented that they were pretty flat-tasting So I put in more nutmeg and sugar, but it didn't help. When I finally realized what happened, my brother had eaten them all up." So they must not have been that bad. "Once I burnt my wrist while ironing and really ruined my Christmas dress by throwing it in the washing machine," she continued. It looks, though, as if Ruth's accomplishments overshadow her defeats. She is presently running in the Michigan Port Queen Contest, with finals in Lansing. Future plans include work, college and marriage. She is also looking towards motherhood, saying “I’d like five children, three of each!" Central Garage, Inc. Pontiac cars, GMC trucks.

It maybe of interest to know that Ruth plans her college major to be in psychology. Brazilian Student Learns English And Customs By Debbie Feighner From Montes Claros, Brazil, Danilo Moreira is studying at Maple Valley hoping to learn more about our people and customs, and to enlarge his English vocabulary. Brazil's national language is not Spanish, but Portuguese. Dan |ay> hia private high school is very different from MV. It contains about 3.000 students who attend school from 7 until 12 p.m. Students of the same age have the same eight basic classes for the school year. Here, taking English, History, Speech. Algebra, Grammar, and Government, he finds it difficult to comprehend, he says, although the teachers and students are cooperative and very friendly. After school, in Brazil, Dan is involved in a men's club and participates on the swimming team. At night there are many parties. Weekdays find him home at 11 p.m., but weekends are unlimited. Presently, Dan is staying with the Harold Starring family in Nashville. He likes farm life but says U.S. farms are sizably different from those in Brazil which average 1,000 acres more or less. Life in the United States will, no doubt, be different, but likely, Danilo Moreira will adjust quickly. South End Food and Beverage Beer Wine Liquor Opn 9-11 7 a«rs H7 S.

This youth movement is at­ tempting to abolish the ignorance displayed by many students concerning politics. A political club can help prepare many students for the age of decision and responsibility. The voices of many of these concerned young voters were heard at a Democratic Mock Convention in December, a project of the 20th Century and government classes. As a follow­ up to the convention, the people interested in politics are now organizing a project which will resemble the real campaigning, registering and voting procedures. Actual registration will begin • Feb. 29, from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m., in the library. Township clerks, representing Hope, Baltimore, Barry. Orangeville, Prairieville and Johnstown townships, will be present to register students. The registration is mainly directed at the 18 to 20 year olds, but everyone is invited to par-, ticipate. This project is an at­ tempt to prepare and familiarize the students with actual voting procedures. Gordon Christensen, a teacher who has taken an active interest in these young political people and their ideas, is meeting with them, listening and rapping on political issues regarding the new The political people's organization is a new con­ sciousness in the lives of Delton students.

Seniors Pass Test With High Scores Twelve TK Seniors passed the Michigan Competitive Scholarship Test with scores high enough to make them eligible tor tuition scholarships, grants and ?rivate school grants. They are om Page. Jim Anders, Tim McDonough, Martv Wenger, Kim Dean, John Griffith, Rex Palmer, Mike Dettmann, Colleen Jahnke, Kim Appel, Janet Johnson and Brenda Rendon. In order to receive any of these awards mentioned, these students must show financial need.

The Variety Show is an annual fund raising project of the high school choral department. Proceeds from the show will be used to purchase equipment for the music department. The show was planned and the acts were auditioned by a committee from the choral department. Clever Display Asks "What Is A Box?" By April Milter Walking down Section B Corridor in Lakewood high school you come upon a most glamorous showcase entitled "What is a Box?" "That’s a box?" came a quip from passersby as they peered through the glass at a small pin cushion made from a cleanser bottle cut in half. It is supported by the top of the bottle and in the inside it was cushioned by yellow­ orange material. Other things in the showcase were wastebaskets, ring holders, curler boxes, collection boxes, makeup boxes, odds and ends boxes and a magazine box. The items in this showcase were made by Mrs. Elizabeth Richard’s Homemaking I class and was set up by Luann Welch, who is Mrs. Richard's student aid. "The emphasis was put on making something inexpensive that can be used for storage in their room," Mrs. Richard ex­ plained. There are 30 girls enrolled in the class. Two of Maple Valley's high school girls, Barb Ames and June Potter, were accepted to the Lansing Conservatory AU Star Band, which is being held in Montrose this year. They sent in applications listing their solo and ensemble ratings for the previous two years, their grade and chair in band. Julie and Barb went to Mon­ trose Jan. 15 to audition for chairs by sight reading. Barb made first chair bass clarinet out of four that auditioned and Julie made third chair out of 24. Both girls went back to Mon­ trose for the weekend of Feb. 26 and 27. They practiced all day Saturday and had clinics for like instruments with a professional player. Saturday night they had a mixer and afterwards met the people with whom they stayed for that one night. Each person was assigned to a family in Montrose and sometimes up to four lived with the same family. Sunday morning they practiced before church and after church they went back to the school for a banquet. Later, a concert was given which was open to the public free of charge. There are two bands, AA-A-C, composed of the schools classified under those ratings and a B-D band made up of bands classified as class B­ I) bands. This is the one that Barb and Julie were in. After the concert on Sunday night, they came home. White's Julie thinks advanced Band is a lot of work but fun. All the people are there because they want to work and leam, not to just goofoff, she says. "It’s a great organization and when we come back I know we’ll have learned a lot," she said. "I went when J was a sophomore and I came back with a few more wrinkles in my brain. It is also a good opportunity to meet people and make more friends." • Qi. Bowling One recently completed project involved American government. The students cut out each state's shape from colored paper, pasted the shapes into a map of the U.S., and then labeled each state with its name, capital and chief' product. Each of approximately 30 students receives a copy of the weekly publication "You and Your World". This newspaper, printed especially for special education classes, includes ar­ ticles on current events, science, jobs and money. Math in Mrs. Cowley’s classes includes many different areas of situational math, even a recent section on income taxes. "I try to teach math that the students will need in real life situations,” Mrs. Cowley said. "Other subjects included are banking and interest per­ centages." HV History Course Expands By Robin Mlihler History is changing. That's why the 7th grade is changing too. It’s not going to be a year long course of Michigan History; in the future it will be six weeks* then geography will take over. This will be flexible enough to connect the happenings to Current Events. The course in general will pertain to modem days, seeking information such as land, war, climate, weapons, people, starvation, according to Mel Ruohonen, who says new books are also necessary.

He broke Bob Bolton's mark of 953, a record HHS Coach Bolton set back in 1950, and ended up with 28 points in the Spartan’s 72-68 victory over East Lansing Friday, Feb. 25. His year’s total hit 976. "T'M Youngs President Bill Jerow of the Hastings Saxon Athletic Boosters Club at the final home basketball game of the 1971-72 season, gave a big THANK YOU to the many area merchants who, year in and year out, come through with cash on the line to support athletic programs. The cash generally is in the form of buying space for an ad­ vertisement on a program. "Our local merchants whose names appear on the back of your program have been donating the money needed to provide these programs for years. I say donating because the advertising value is very minimal. We, the Hastings Saxon Boosters, would like to thank these merchants for their generosity. We hope that when you go into their places of business to patronize them, you will also thank them,’’ Jerrow concluded. Hastings met disaster in the final game of the regular season at Charlotte Friday night, Feb. 25. The disaster was created by Rocco Moore, who pumped in 37 points, and Tim Moore, who jD.Whcd 23 -the pair scoring more points than the entire Saxon crew. Moore has been the West Central scoring king al) season, and finished with 326 points and his school’s scoring record. Our own Jerry Kessenlch, who did a fine job at Charlotte despite the fact that he was sick Tuesday and Wednesday, look runnerup league scoring honors with 277. Jerry had 24 at Charlotte and 277 for the season. Hastings con­ centrated on stopping Rocco, but the 0-7 junior is accurate from all over the court and never took a shot he shouldn't have taken. Hastings shooting was the worst of the year, and the Saxons committed 15 turnovers in the final two periods. Coach Ernie Strong hopes that the beating ■won’t affect his Saxons’ tour­ nament play. "I’m hoping it was just a bad night all the way around, and I hope we play a much stronger game in our district opener Thursday,” Coach Strong added. Tom Barnum, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Barnum of 619 Indian Hills Drive and a 1967 Lakewood High graduate who played footban for Michigan State "It’s A Small World" The Harry Burkes ^retired Bliss chief engineer) have been at Campbell, Calif., and Harry’s been playing golf at Palo Alto Municipal Cource jvith an old Chicago friend. Thursday, Feb. 10, Harry was playing with hi/ friend with two others and after the first nine the two had to leave and they were assigned two others, an Ole Olson and a Paul Schneider, total strangers. After a few holes Paul learned that Harry was from Hastings, and asked about Coach John Clarey and Kathy. Paul said that his wife was Kathy’s maid of honor at the Clarey wedding 28 years ago. What a day this was for Harry! He broke 80 for the first time ever, shooting a 41 on the front side, and needed a par on the 18th hole for a 79. Harry’s birdie putt just missed, but he got hia par and a 38 for his 79. “While Palo Alto Municipal does not compare to HCC for toughness (it’s flat) it has a 72 par. My previous efforts were 90 and 87. It has a water hole and is trapped pretty well,” Harry said. Now we’ll get strokes, hey Harry! Bill Karpinski, 35, who earned a lot of respect and made many friends although only on the Hastings faculty one year (195960),has been named the new head football coach at Battle Creek Central. He will, go the Cereal City after a four-year stint as coach at Michigan City, Ind., but he made his coaching fame in Michigan prep circles, mainly at his alma mater, Class B Buchanan, where his teams compiled a 44-4-4 record, in­ cluding a 20-game winning streak. From Buchanan he went to Mishawaka, Ind., for two years, before moving to Michigan City. In high school Bill was an All-State and All­ American selection. He came to Hastings from WMU, where he played football and was the Bronco captain his senior year.

Prayer Quimby Methodist History “Notes givpn to me by Ida Thorn Bidelman on the first religious movement in this community Along some time in the sixties there was a school house on the county farm comer next to the river A prominent Methodist layman of the Hastings ME Church by the name of O.D. Spaulding came out and organized a Sunday school with Mr. C.B Benham as superintendent. In the year of 1868 I L. Qtrimby of Grand' Rapids bought 160 acres of land where he started his lumbering business and named it Quimby. In 1869 the railroad was built from Jackson as far as Hastings That same year the present school house was built al a cost of $600 Then the Sundayschool was held in the new school house Through the efforts of a Mrs Whipple who lived at Quimby, a Rev. Bancroft <of Hastings was secured to come out and preach in the school house This was in 1871 MP. Quimby built a large saw mill, a dry bln, a copper shop, and a stave shed. He built some 12 houses, had a store, post office and depot. Hie mill employed about 45 jnen Then came a bad fire in 1873 and the dry kiln burned. In 1874 the saw mill burned, thought by some that the Indians set those fires because he set his mill on their burying ground Mr Quimby quit the business and the town stopped growing and started going back­ ward. The Sunday school con­ tinued until 1881 when Mr. C.B. Benham moved to Oceana county and the Sunday school was closed Then in the Spring of 1885 they organized a Union Sunday school with my mother. Mrs Alice Scott, as superintendent It was a large Sunday school and has been continued ever since. The Wesleyan Methodists came and asked if they could Dreach in the school house Rev. Martin came and had a class formed followed by Rev Cheeney. a grand man After the Sunday school was organized 1885, Mrs Mattie Striker suggested we should have an organ. She put on a musical program one evening and raised the money to pay for the organ-it cost $25 After some time the Wesleyans quit and the United Brelhrens held services for a time with Rev Blinkingstaf Then they had visiting preachers until Rev Frank Hatch from the M E. Circuit came and asked if he could preach in the school house He soon formed a class and laid plans to build a Church-. It cost $1,200 and was dedicated free and dear of debt in 1909 Miss Angie Bates of Hastings gave us an 22 organ so we had it for the Sunday we dedicated the church. S.J. Bidelman gave us the land. Mr Fred MeNair gave us $100. A lady that we did not know and whose home was in California, pledged $100 and sent it to us. Rev. William Todd was our first minister. From 1909 we were a part af the Hastings Circuit until 1971 when we were assigned to the Nashville Circuit along with the Peace Church. The basement under the Quimby Church was built during Rev. Karl Keefer's appointment to the Circuit which was from 1923 to 1928. Previous to this time all social functions were held at the Macabee Hall which was in back of and upstairs from the dept general store and post office. In the building of the basement of the church, a large percentage of the community, both members and nonmembers, turned out to help, both physically and verbally And even though it was hard work, a great deal of enjoyment developed as the bystanders as well at the workers threw in bits of advice. Many though’ that Karl would have the Church in the basement, when dynamite was used to break the hard crusted dirt loose for removal Problems developed, of course, but all went reasonally well. Remember this was done in the days of pick shovel and horses-no earth removing machinery to quickly escavate the dirt and no huge cement trucks to pour the cement. Complete cost of the basement was pledged or paid the night of dedication. It might be in­ teresting to note that in the building of the Church that a lady, Janie McIntosh, mother of Kittie Boll Sides and Minnie Edmonds, drew the first load of stones GRACE LUTHERAN CHURCH Rev Michael Anion.

Reynders A Good Church is a friendly one The first Christian church was sociable and eating “from house to house’’ was a sign of it. There was no icy formality; friendship was the keynote. Social Action is a mark of a good church. Social concern goes beyond mere sociability. It’s people help in case of need, selling part of their goods, if necessary, to relieve suffering as the early church did The good church follows the accepted teaching It continues devotedly in the faith which makes hope strong. A good Church is a praying church. The church is born in prayer and kept alive and moving by the same power A good church is united completely, not just in name only. Mutual love and respect is demonstrated by “gladness and singleness of heart”. A good church is popular. The church of which Peter was a part had “favor with all the people.” It won the respect of the people and won people. It is the duty of the church to succeed. Men and money will pour into it when it does its duty - when it lives up to its ideals.

Fair night is fun but it takes much work ahead of time. The Viking Freshmen won the tournament championship. They played a hard game to defeat the Waverly West team. Attention was taken away from the presentation of the trophy as fans and players from the losing team caused a disturbance. It showed very poor sportsmanship to have them try to pick a fight. After all everyone can not be a winner. The opposing coach tried to control his boys but there is a lesson to be taught them in good conduct. Winning is not everything but how you play the game.

Whether to enter the Kent-Intermediate School District or not? There are some very important considerations that should be pointed out about this issue.

ItTt' the 60-65 percent reduction ob­ tained with flouridated water. In addition to providing protection against cavities, the program offers a valuable dental experiences for children with no discomfort. that is composed of three school districts, Middleville, Delton, and Hastings. The State Department of Education has stated that the number of intermediate districts should be cut from the present 70 some to around 20. This means that the smaller ones will be eliminated. Barry Intermediate will certainly be eliminated. The Thornapple-Kellogg district could be placed into one of three intermediate districts-KentCalhoun-Kalamazoo. The Ad­ ministration and the Board feel there would be a number of advantages in joining the Kent district. The following are a list of reasons for joining the Kent district at this time. Not necessarily in order of im­ portance. (1) Lowest tax rate. Kent - 2.415 mills Calhoun - 5.43 mills Kalamazoo - 3 88 mills <2> Best possible location geographically. Middleville is 15 miles from the Kent offices, 18 miles to the skill center, 20 miles to special ed facilities. Calhoun would be a minimum of 50 miles to as high as 70 for some services. Kalamazoo has no skill center and other services would be 50 miles. (3) Kent offers the best possible services. (1) Two skill centers for advanced training. (2) Special Ed. services (3) Social services (4) Consultant services (5) Audio • Visual Center Calhoun has a skill center and offers most of the other services, but by being so far removed geographically we would not be able to avail ourselves of them. Kalamazoo has no skill center and none in the planning stage. In summation, the Ad­ ministration and Board feel we have everything to gain and very little of anything to lose by joining the Kent Intermediate District. We know that the underlying fear of some people in the district is: That by becoming part of the Kent District, we would be subject to bussing our kids to Grand Rapids and vice-versa. It is doubtful that this would ever happen because of the travel time involved. Caledonia, Lowell, Cedar Springs, Kent City, and others in the Kent District are not included in the bussing suit now in the courts. This is really im­ material though, because as was previously stated, it is almost a 100 percent certainty that we are going to be made a part of one of the three metropolitian districts so if bussing does come, it would again just be a question of where. Weigh the facts and make your own decision. We have a choice now. Later we will be assigned to a district by the state. It may not be the one we want.

H “We spend thousands even1 year on ice control, and if we save just one life it certainly is worth It. “And our program has cut down accidents." That is what Michael Klovanich, Hastings’ director of public services, said during the Wednesday, Feb. 23, blizzard in com­ menting on the City 8 “salting program.” Klovanich pointed out that his crew* spread many tons of salt during th£ Winter, and they get out when the streets first become white with snow. “We get at it before there is a two. three or four-inch buildup. The packed snow keeps the salt from wording to the pavement, and prevents us from doing a real job. I’ve instructed our men to work on our major streets until they reach bare pavement. Our councilmen believe in the bare pavement policy, too, even though it does cost money." Klovanich explained that the City uses salt when the temperature is about 10 degrees, or warmer Below 10 the salt is mixed with calcium chloride to get better action Chief of Police Richard Senior said major accidents at Hastings intersections have dropped about 58 percent, while all accidents— including •fender benders *—are down about 25 percent because of the ice control program. In 1970-71 Hastings used 825.10 tons of salt at a cost of $12,114.16. and in 1971-72 crews spread 528.75 tons at a cost of $7,825 50. Pontiac's Small Car For Small-Car Lovers Who Want More.

THE HASTINGS BANNER.. ....biarcfc 8. 1972......... 3 �EDITORIAL ---------------------- by R. M. C.-------------------------- 1 In our opinion, merchants concerned with the establishment of a Parking Mall on State Street, have reason to feel let down by the refusal of the Hastings City Council to discuss with them financial temis to reimburse the City for estimated loss in parking meter revenue between now and July 1. if parking meters are removed from areas covered by the Mall plan. Possibly the fault was lack of communication between two groups, each of whom have specialized responsibilities to consider, txit the Chamber of Commerce, representing the retail firms, was left with the impression that if the necessary funds were raised, the Council would meet with the retailors to establish a mutually satisfactory basis of payment to cover the potential loss in budget revenue from meters that the City had incorporated into it’s 1971-72 budget , ’ The merchants, between Council sessions, raised funds they thought ample to repay the City for estimated loss in revenue, but at the last session found that the Council was not yet ready to talk business. As mentioned, this could easily .have been caused by lack of mutual understanding rather than ill-will on the part of either group Unless terms are spelled out in black ana white, such misunderstandings can easily occur. The merchants are evidently Jackie Bennett, daughter of Mr. very much in earnest regarding the Mall.

March 8, 1972 To the Editor: I would like to answer the concerned student's editorial in the Feb. 23. Banner column accent, “Delton needs planning” re: its antiquity and short comings It would have been a wise thing to check further into the past ventures the town had to offer before pointing out our faults. Several years ago the Boosters Club (a group of people with the desire to improve Delton) tried to instigate an incorporation of the village. They felt that Wall and Crooked lake residents were a part of the town also but these people were firm in their refusal to be any part of an in corporation. TTieir reasons were, not interested-just that many more taxes town’s too small and numerous other reasons A youth center was organized and held in the community Hall but soon closed because of lack of interest from young people as well as adults. Since I have lived in this community there has been a little Theatre group, a dry goods store, several resturants, a locker plant, two hardwares, a meat market, a bakery and several other businesses. We also have had three dentists, several doctors, the Bernard Hospital, a milk plant and a veterinarian. Most of tiiese businesses have been terminated because of competition from larger businesses in nearby cities Regardless of what Delton has to offer everyone in the town and surrounding area will patronize the business and social places of their choice in any city they desire to drive to. Delton does have storm sewers. At times they are inadequate in their functions and there arc areas where there should be additional ones. I believe the residents of Wall and ('rooked lake should be just as concerned about polluting their drinking water and their lake as Delton proper is with a drainage problem. Now-will everyone stop picking on the 18 year old that is allowed to be called an adult. They seem to be blamed for every misdemeanor in the book whether they are proven guilty or not. I find teen-agers to be the same as most of us were at that age It just happens that most adults have too short a memory. A firmly believe that people move to this community because they like a slower pace, enjoy country living and want their children in this school system. I hope we continue to make improvements on our school, our homes and our businesses, but I also hope that we continue as an un-incorpora ted village that is our choice. Mrs. Ray Wisniewski Delton, .

We must act ac­ cordingly to eliminate the human failures of hate and destruction THE HASTINGS BANNER IDWMI State Sfr«at. Hettinq* Michigan Published every Monday at Hailing*. Michigan atOM March 8. 1972 �To the Editor: This writer has been reading with interest the editorials, letters to the editor, new releases from the Chamber of Commerce, and related articles about the City Council's action-reaction to the innumerable recom­ mendations for making State Street into a mall. The responses from the shoppers of Barry County and the surrounding area have been mostly favorable to the concept of doing whatever is necessary to bring about such a downtown shopping center. Banner Editorials, during these past many months have done much to keep the project alive and uppermost in the minds of the hundreds of people in­ volved. The trial period in December was justifiably sup­ ported by the citizenry, the merchants,' and professional people along the main thorough­ fare as well as those on the side socalled “feeder streets." There may have been minor grievances by a few; although the plan was and still is - flixible enough to give them a hearing before settling for a permanent arrangement. Much has been done by the Planning commission in close co­ operation with the City Council over the past decade to keep the downtown area intact as a shopping center. Some blocks still need additional parking space available within con­ venient access to the stores now lacking their rightful share of such facilities. The writer cannot accept the stand being voiced by some, however, that the sup­ porters of the plan and those responsible for giving sanction for its consummation on a stepby-step basis are at an impasse, llie priority on this particular project is still too high on the list of "Things To Do in 72" to allow it to linger along without further study and early action on the preliminary phases. .Angular or 90 degree parking can be decided upon through the continued cooperation of the Police Dept, and the Chamber of Commerce. The “City Fathers." it is rightfully assumed, will act upon their reasonable recom­ mendations. The removal of meters on State St. may be a matter which will bring about some legal problems; although the writer has been in townscities where such litigation has been favorably resolved. May the townspeople of Hastings keep showing an intense interest in every aspect of the project related to making the downtown area an attractive and convenient place in which to shop. It doesn't take much in­ ducement to have small splinter groups of shops spring up here and there on the edge of town only to be followed by an eventual “ghost town" where there were once prosperous businesses along the “main stem." A committee of from three to five businessmen and members of the City Council could very well make productive trips within a 50 to 100 mile radius of Hastings to towns of like size and find up to 25 to 35 percent of the store fronts boarded up or in a di la pita ted condition because of vacancies. The same group, however, could also observe progressive towns like their own which have accomplished many stages of successful urban development. Some of the many questions to be asked while In the company of the people representing the progressive towns could ne the following: How often have you changed your parking patems and areas to best accommodate those people who use the spaces? Did you ever consider creating a mall in the central business district? If so. what approach did you take and how far along are you? If not. why not? ’ What kind of a working relationship do you have amond the necessary parties within the community to bring about actual results? . Do you fee) a sence of ungency in the need for detailed planning to combat the ever-encreasing competition of nearby big city shoping centers? If so. did your intiative begin at that point or had you done some advance work? Much groundwork has been laid with just such information gathered by men willing to use their time and effort to assemble it The records are a part of the files at the Chamber of Com­ merce but they need reviewing and an up-to-date appraisal with another look at the actual layouts within a reasonable distance of Hastings. There need be no reluctance on thfc part of any member of the visitlna group for fear of appearing a r‘copy-cat" because these same procedures are common in the industrial world as well as community planning. The reader may logically ask. "What ax does the writer have to grind in this controver8y',“ well, the fact that a change of residence has recently taken place will never entirely remove my continuing interests in the affairs of Hastings. Commercial property still held there is in­ cidental to whatever time and energy spent during almost three decades on State St. I would like to continue - from afar - to give some expression to my personal hopes and aspirations for the progress of the entire com­ munity. Sincerely, Stan Cummings 14609 N. Boswell Blve.. Sun City, Ariz., 85351 To the Editor: Some weeks ago there was an error in the History of the Baltimore U.B. Church. Later a letter appeared in your column containing more errors. The following is taken from the "History of Allegan and Barn­ Counties" of 1880. not from tales told me by Aunt Jemima or Uncle Josh. Michigan was taken from the Northwest Territory in 1805 A Committee was appointed to form the Constitution Owing to the dispute over the Boundsrv Line between Michigan and Ohio, it was Dec. 26. 1837 before Michigan became a state. By an enactment of the Senate and House of Representatives on March 15, 1849, the Township of Baltimore was organized. This had been surveyed and recorded in Barry County Court House in Hastings in 1849 as Range 2 West and Range 8 North. The first settlers in Sec. 15 of this Town­ ship in 1837 were Andrew Kelley and his brother-in-law, Thomas Dowling from Balitmore, Md. Eli, D. Eaton, from Huron, Ohio, becam a settler in 1849 on the N.W.Mi of Sec. 12, obtained by a land-warrarnt given him by the government for his services in the Mexican War. He increased his acreage to 185 acres. The same year, two other pioneers. Jay Denton Hodges and John Houghtalin settled in See. 9 and Sec. 2. It was 1850 that B.C. Cramer purchased 187 acres in Sec. 2, where he resided until his death. Also in 1850, Gilbert Striker and six brothers settled on 316 acres in Sec. 3.'He bought , out his brothers the next *year. Mr. Houghtalin lost a son in 1851 and he. Mr. Striker, and John Day selected a plot of ground for the child's grave, which was later enclosed by a fence and given to the Township and is to this day known as The Striker Cemetery. John Day married Eliza Eaton in 1844. Her sister, Jane, married Henry Houghtalin. It was Gilbert Striker Sr.’s daughter who married George Scott Sr. Another of his daughters married John Fancher. When Gilbert Striker Sr. passed away Nov. 20. 1874, his widow resided with their son. Gilbert Jr., who inherited the portion with the buildings. Their daugher. Mrs. Scott, inherited 40 acres surrounding the cemetery and acreage west on McKeown Road, which later went to her son. Gilbert Scott. Mrs. Fancher received 100 acres west of Mrs. Scott’s portion, facing McGlyn Rd. Gilbert Striker, Jr. receoved the balance of the Estate, lying south of his two sisters. I worked on the STriker farm and know how the Estate was settled. Wm. Eaton came in 1853 to 80 acres he owned in Sec. 11, with twcryoke of oxen and a team of horses, trading the team of horses for 80 acres on which he built his first residence. The house is still standing and presently occupied by Gerald Paine. Alson, in: 1853. George Notice Of Meeting The Barry Twp. Roush settled in Sec. 11. A road was surveyed by Albert Bull from Battle Creek to Hastings in 1854 known then as State Rd., now M 37. A second school was erected in 1851 in the road allowance of Roush Rd. iust east of Mr. Roush’s residence. The pioneer teacher was Daniel Striker. Wm. Eaton's sons, Henry, age 13, and Albert, age 11, attended this school, which was torn down by Albert in 1877 so the road could be straightened. Church services were held in this Log School. The present Baltimore U.B. Church was the first church in Striker District built in 1883 on the Corner of Lawrence and Bird Roads. This was the year I was bom. My father was Albert ELaton.

I thought there had to lie more, so I worked I saved, and smashed and did everything I could to get to the “top". I had cars and clothes, and monrjS rolling out my rtirs. but somehow jt wasn't enough Then I tried something else, fun I drove fast cars; I stood with a hundred “friends ". just drinking it up. and having a ball, laughing and telling jokes But laughter had a hollow sound.

The Drop-In Center Ferd: What is this Drop-In Center thing anyway? Snerd: It's a place to go and enjoy yourself. And they’ll have the people around for anybody who wants some sort of help. Ferd: You mean it's going to be a rehabilitation center? Snerd: No It's a place for anyone to go. You don't have to have a special probelm. But if you do. you can use the center for that. too. Ferd: Who’s going to be there. Snerd: Anyone will be welcome. Young people will probably use it the most, but anyone is welcome. Ferd: Well, what are they going to have in the center? Snerd: It’ll be a place to eat, rap. meet your friends, listen to music, dance, read, play pool, ping pong, stuff like that. You can find out information on jobs that people want done. You can get information on drugs And if you want to talk to someone about something in particular, he’ll be there. Ferd: When do they plan to have it open? snerd: That depends on how fast the money comes in. Right now they have about $4,300, and they’re aiming at more than $13,000 Ferd. Will they be open all the time? Snerd: The center plans to be open every day, during reasonable hours. But during the night when they are closed, if you should need them for anything, there’ll be a hot-line telephone service. Feed: Who's going to run the place? Snerd: They plan to hire a full time director who will live in the center A staff of young adults and adults will work with him. ‘Ferd: How come they need so much money? snerd: That's for one year Man. it costs money to buy a building, furnish it and pay to keep it going There is a chance the building can be bought from other sources. If that happens. $13,000 should be enough. If not. they'll need more to hire a director. Ferd: Why don't people donate some of the furnishings? Snerd: They've already started They've got a stero hi-fi, a stove, a ping-pong table, a pool table already promised. And there’s a local rock group that has promised to play free for any benefit dances for the center. Ferd: How come they 're asking the whole community to support it? Snerd: Because they feel it’s a project for the good of the entire community area Besides, in the future it might just develop into a regular community center, including things like a senior citizens' center, a legal aid office Things like that Ferd: Sounds good Where fo I send my donation'’ Snerd: Best thing is to give it to the caller at your door who comes MARCH 15-16 during the PORCH LIGHT CANVASS, if you can’t be home, send it to the treasurer.

Inc. reported an 18 9 percent gain in net income for the 1971 fiscal year on the basis of preliminary and unaudited figures For the 52 weeks ended Jan. 29. the department store and catalog chain had record net earnings of $135.7 million against $114.1 million for the prior year. TTiis amounted to primary net income per share of $2.46 compared with $2.14 in 1970 Fully diluted ear­ nings per share totaled $2 43 in 1971 against $2 08 the previous year. For the fourth quarter of 1971. J. C. Penney had net income of $57.9 million, or $1.01 per share. This was a gain of 17.5 percent over net earnings of $48.5 million, or 91 cents per share, recorded during the final quarter of 1970. On a fully diluted basis, earnings per share for the 1971 period were $1.00, up from 87 cents in 1970. Sales for both 1971 and 1970 as well as for the fourth quarters of both years have been restated to reflect consolidation of the Company’s operations in Belgium and Italy. This restatement had no effect on earnings for any of the periods involved. As restated, sales for 1971 rose 10.5 percent to a record $4,812.2 million from $4,354 7 million during the prior year Volume for the 13 weeks ended Jan 29 amounted to a record $1.567 6 million, up 12.9 percent from $1,388.4 million during the 1970 period. Chrmn. William M. Batten and Pres. C.L. Wriaht said that 1171 was particularly significant as marking the first year the catalog operation had made a profit since the Company entered the business in 1962 The tur­ naround in catalog, they added, had an important impact on the year’s earnings performance. Total catalog sales, including catalog sales in stores, increased 23 8 percent during 1971 to $303.1 million. The catalog profit, they said resulted from the leverage achieved from the operation's growing sale* base and increased productivity of the Company's two catalog distribution centers. On the other hand, the Penney officers reported that the firm's European subsidiaries, Sarma. S.A. in Belgium and J.C. Penney S.p.A. in Italy, had a $12.2 million loss for the year Sarma's part of the loss was $7.3 million. J.C. Penney S.p.A.'s $4.9 million. Their operations are included in the consolidated statements without any U.S. tax effect since they may hot be consolidated in the Company’s U.S. tax return The economies of both Belgium and Italy were weak during 1971, the Penney officers pointed out. With only two store* opened in Italy in 1971, J.C. Penney S.p.A. had high management costs in relation to sales, according to Messrs. Batten and Wright. Pre­ opening expense* also con­ tributed to the Italian loss. The Penney officers em­ phasized that a key reason for the improved profitability during 1971 was the performance of J.C. Penney stores. Full line stores. of which there were 270 at year’s end, continued to mature, and soft line stores again performed well. Penney units generally maintained effective inventory and expense controls. In ad­ dition. there was a substantial reduction in the Company’s in­ terest expense during the year. Commenting on the fourth quarter, the Penney officers noted that domestic operations produced a rate of increase in earnings exceeding that of the first nine months of 1971. However, the gain was diluted by the losses in Belgium and Italy. �Charge 5 Men With Sale Of Marijuana Five students at the Michigan Technical Institute and Rehabilitation Center at Pine Lake were arraigned before Barry County District Judge Kenneth Hansen Friday.

Delton To Pare Costs Of New High School The Delton-Kellogg Board of Education recently met with the Citizens Committee for the proposed new high school at which time the committee received word that the first figures in the preliminary cost analysis had been prohibitive. Da verman and Associates of Grand Rapids, the architects, have made the first adjustments and the figure still is I4.ROO.OOO for the new High School Building and renovation to Middle School of present High School. Charles Monica. board president, speaking on behalf of the entire board indicated that board members feel that this amount should be reduced and charged the various study committees to interchange ideas in order to bring the costs down to an amount the school district can place on the ballot June 12. The present valuation of the district is 26 million and after the increased tax assessment should be in the 34 million category. The board does not wish to exceed 16 percent of this amount authorized by the Bond Loan Program for total bonding purposes. The present in­ debtedness of the school is $1,200,000. which must be. in­ cluded in the 16 percent. The entire package which the architects presented as taken from the citizens reports in­ cluded 45 teaching ataUonx of which the number has been cut to 30 for the present. Should the district continue to grow as projected the 45 teaching stations would be needed in 10 years and the building will be designed so as to add additional units. In closing Monica stated "The Board of Education charges the committees with bringing the coots down. We dreamed a bit­ that’s great! We wanted to know what the ideal school for our district would cost-now we have to be realistic." Another meeting of the entire citizens committee will be held in six weeks for final presentation of reports. TO PROTECT YOUR FAMILY Ai your family grows, so do your insurance needs.

Potatoes First Michigan Crop Hurt By Pollution Air pollution damage to plants is costing the U.S. more than $500 million a year, reports Dr. William J.

Potatoes have proved to be especially subject to air pollution damage; being the first major Michigan held crop to suffer serious, widespread, commercial yield leases. Symptoms of air pollution damage were observed in Michigan potato fields as early as the mid-60s Major sources of damaging pollution are car and truck exhausts.

The beams, which help create the Tudor are lia * u Exquisitdy carved oak extends across the length of one wall in the living room. This master craftsmanship lends a warm feeling and handsome at­ mosphere to the room Sigler left Hastings in 1943 to become the law partner of a prominent Michigan lawyer, Burritt "Hamilton, in Battle Creek, but he had left an imprint on the town. In 1924 he was elected prosecutor of Barry County, a job he held for six years. He was alstflastings* city attorney for 14 years He had run for public office on both the Republican and Democratic tickets, but his first two tries for major public offices ended in defeat In 1928 he was a Democratic candidate for at­ torney general but was defeated by Wilber Marion Brucker, who later became governor. In 1942 Sigler, running as a Republican, Tost the nomination for state senator to Harold D. Tripp of Allegan. Shortly after he joined Hamilton’s law firm he was appointed special prosecutor of the state grand jury to in­ vestigate graft in the state government. By working unceasingly for more than two years to convince bribers, gamblers and dishonest legislators, by sending grafters to prison and by selling Michigan citizens the fact that they needed "clean, honest government", Sigler was elected governor in 1946 on the Republican ticket. After he was beaten by G. Mennen Williams, a New Deal Democrat, in his bid for a second term in 1948, Sigler returned to private law practice. Kimber Cornelius Sigler was killed in( 1953 when his fourpassenger private plane crashed into a wire supporting a Battle Creek television tower, two miles northeast of Augusta. Sigler's death cast a shadow over many who knew him when he resided on Green Street. People will often mention to newcomers that "that’s the house where a Michigan governor used to live". Need money help? Non-Discrimination • One of the most historic homes in Hastings, speaking in terms of residents, is the rambling. Tudor style house at 505 W. Green St. Now owned by Mrs. Albert 'Bobby” Silvers, whose late husband founded the Hastings Aluminum Company, the house formerly sheltered a man destined to be the 36lh governor of Michigan. Kim Sigler, one term governor from 1947-1948, moved to Hastings from Detroit in 1922 to establish a law firm. He pur­ chased the house in the 30*s and began to remodel the interior, a job started by Fred Hill, previous owner, who abandoned the project during the Depression. Hill had completed renovating the exterior to its present Tudor style, decorated with hand-hewn beams, large bay windows and arched, solid oak doors. Ex­ tensive improvements by Sigler converted the house into a 15 room showplace, not including the attic and basement. The eyes of visitors, when coming from the covered drivethru at the west side of the house into the main entrance, im­ mediately focus upward on the handsome oak beams across the foyer’s ceiling. The most striking feature of the living area, a rectangular room facing Green Street on the south and Washington Street on the east, is the elaborate use of several shapes of oak paneling across the north wall. The paneling extends into the study, where an oak bookcase was built into one wall. Valances above several windows and the trim above hand-carved molding at the edge of the ceilings are also oak. An ample dining room, small breakfast area, bath and sunny kitchen complete the main floor spacial arrangement. The second floor consists of four roomy bedrooms, three baths and a nursery. Sigler did not finish the attic, except for building a cedar closet. The rest of the third floor is divided into two rooms, one which runs about three-fourths the length of the bouse, and the other a small, square room. The basement was decorated by the Silvers, who bought the home after the Siglers moved to Battle Creek It includes a bar and family room, paneled in knotty pine, a mini-kitchen, laundry room, exercise room and bath.

A survey conducted by the department shows that 2S per­ cent of the disabling injuries received by employees involve their backs. The survey also reveals that 32 percent of all injuries suffered by employees occur while they are lifting objects. To combat these painful-and often very costly-mishaps, department safety consultants offer this advice: Plant your feet firmly and squat close to the object to be lifted, gripping it firmly. Then lift by gradually straightening your legs while keeping the back straight. Leg muscles, not back muscles, should do the work.

Women's Club Hosts Senior Girls, Mothers At Annual Tea The climax of a full and rewarding week came for members of the Hastings Women’s Club on March 3. They were hostess to 150 guests at the annual meeting to honor the Hastings High School senior girls on Friday at the Leason Sharpe Memorial Hall. Since 1945 the Hastings Women's Club lias saluted the senior girls as they neared graduation. For the last several years the salute has been ex­ tended to their mothers. This year Doris Jarrell was the speaker. Mrs. Jarrell is executive assistant to the Michigan Supreme Court. She is best known here as a former news reporter for WOOD radio and television. Mrs Jarrell spoke briefly on her experience in the news field and with the courts. She feels there are good opportunities in both fields for women. She told of her experiences in her news reporting days in covering major news stories. In her opinion events are the people involved. People make the news for good or bad. Mrs. Jarrell stressed the ab­ solute need for freedom of the press and the need to fight against censorship. Only recently has the media becomeconcemed with an "image.” History is occurring with such rapidity and is being covered omre thoroughly than ever before. Often it is easy to attack the bearer of bad news rather then the problem that caused the news The court system, Mrs. Jarrell continued, finds itself in a similar position as regards images. The courts are fun­ damental to our society. She pointed out in conclusion that criminal cases make up only 6 to 8 percent of the courts caseload. Guest vocal soloist was Mrs Pat Kelly of Allegan. This former Hastings resident delighted her many old friends, and many new ones with her beautiful voice and charming presence. She sang arias by Mozart and Menotti and songs by Gershwin, Charles, and Dvoark .She was accompanied by Mrs. Freddie Kruko. After the program members and guests enjoyed the tea. Four Women’s Club members presided at the refreshment tables. These four, Mme. Willard Curtis, Richard Deming, James Lewis and Max Myers, all have sons in the Hastings High Class of 1972. The young women of the Class of 1972 were presented flowers as they entered. Mrs. Jack Ken­ nedy, Mrs. Ed Caukin and her daughter, Joyce, Mrs. Richard Groce and Mrs. James Wiswell made the corsages for the guests There were 300 present for the Afternoon's program and tea.

"After, the previous taxi operator left the business last /ear. many people asked for a new taxi service." Hal Olsen, a 27 year old former employee of Sears, said. "But some people checked into it and figured it wouldn't be profitable because of high insurance and other requirements We found it wasn't so bad and decided to start a business." Olsen and his wife. Sherlyn, 25. operate the one-ca|> service from their home at 1WM S. Hanover. The cab is a Chevrolet van, for which they have bought steps to help people enter easily.

Planning Board’s Objectives And Policies Discussed At Meeting The Barry County Planning Commission devoted its entire meeting Monday evening, Feb. 27 to Education that was renamed by Mrs. Chester Stowell, In­ formation. Representatives from many county organizations, attended much to the surprise of the commission. Represented were The Barry County Farm Bureau. Barry County Pomona Grange, Barry County Sprotswomens club. Hastings Business and Professionas Womens Club. Barry County Township officers, Barry County Extension Women and Hastings Womenu Club. A brief history of organization and responsibilities were given of the national state and local planning levels. Speakers of national note were at the 1965 meeting and basic requirements of local planners were listed: (1) Suggestions to come from people involved (2) A group organized at the local level to pul) all ideas together (3) Ample publicity stressing the extreme need for this in America and all the world, (4) A close look at Population trends and question. "Is Over crowding you?” (5)Select and save all unique areas. <•> Say great stress on Natural Beauty we are losing it fast (7) Organize committies throughout your county to study the problems in their area. Michigan Governors con­ ferences and Natural Resources Council meetings have stressed the urgent problems of our state Water, Air, Solid Wastes, Urban Development. Land Under Pressure and Recycling are the most recent. In 1971 the theme was Land Under Pressure. Euell Gibbons stressed that Man, the Powerful, had nurtured the concept the he, Man, had every right to dominate Nature and turn Natures gifts to his own use. Such is not the case Man must return to Nature all that he takes in some form and a bit more if a better world is to be created Mrs. Milliken stressed the need for a strong, state and federal Land Use Plan well seasoned with aesthetic quality and good landscaping design. Suggestions and plans to come from the local level. Dale Ball, director of agriculture made an urgent plea for all agricultural land to be retained for agriculture and dosed with, "In my opinion It’s Later Than We Think.” Is it? All speakers stressed in one way or another the need for Population Control and the crying need for ConservationEnvironmental education. There are no guidelines for such education in our state today! A Governors task force is ap­ pointed and requested the State Department of Education to form a committee for such study. What is being done in our schools of Barry County? We do know there are some most dedicated teachers, so all may hope! The Barry County Planning Commission, by order of the Barry County Commissioners, was organized in June 1969. In­ vitations were extended to 36 people in all parts of the county to attend a meeting at the Com­ munity building. From this meeting eleven persons were chosen to serve on the com­ mission not only from variied locations but of diversified in­ terests. Recreational bond was voted and time limit set for applying for funds. The first project was a Recreational Plan for BarryCounty that was completed in 1971. The Water and Sewer problem of our county seemed to be the second much needed project and the plan completed in late 1971 and a public hearing planned for March 27 at the courthouse What is the optimum number of people Barry County can favorable house allowing each the Open Space it needs is the first question to face all planning commissions. Equally important is the retention of AH agricultural land for food production. It is a must. Land is under pressure. Jim King, vice-chairman, conducted the meeting taking time to explain the completed Water and Sewer study plan and invited all to attend the March 27 meeting. The aim of the Planning Commission Is orderly­ development of our county. Do we want the lakes to be developed to the maximum? In addition to commission members attending were Mr. and Mrs. Vere Carter.

This, added to a near 50 per cent increase in advertising, has enabled the Banner to achieve its greatest peak of service in more than a decade. As the advertising continues to pick up in volume the editors will add still more newsworthy and interesting benefits to our paper and reader services will increase as news space is justified. Meanwhile, as we continue to brush up on homework designed to Improve the Banner you, our reader, can be of help, too, by con­ tinuing to let us know what you would like to see in the paper...as you have done in our recent reader survey. And. of course, we realize all this depends upon advertising. Mention to your favorite business people that you appreciate seeing their advertising in the Banner. Yes, it's a whole new broom for us and it's the ADVERTISING that keep s us sweeping over the entire Barry County trade area. ADVERTISING...our life’s blood. Bob Shaltis Back From Peace Corps Bob Shaltis, 24, son of the R.J. Shaltis at Algonquin Lake, who began his duties with the Peace Corps in August 1969, has returned home. There were 115 in the group he was with and for the first three months they studied eight hours every day to learn the language and history of the countries they would visit. Bob was sent to Malaysia where he taught in the high school. (He has a mathematics and science B.S. degree). He will leave this week for Chicago where he will be em­ ployed until he begins graduate studies at West Virginia University at Morgantown this Fall. It is most interesting to see the artifacts that Bob brought home from Malaysia. A particularity beautiful piece is an ivory statue of an old man that is 2 feet 5 in-* ches high. He took this along to Chicago to keep him company. The Hastings * f Banner Devoted to the Interests of Barry County Since 1856 THE HASTINGS BANNER......... March >.

FARMER’S DEADLINE Friday, March 10, is the deadline for producers of wheat and feed grains in Michigan to sign up for the 1072 Wheat-Feed Grain Program at the Barrv VSCS office. Council Tables Parking Mall For State Street By a 5-3 vote, members of the Hastings City Council Monday night, Feb. 28, tabled the proposal for the immediate establishment of a parking mall on State Street, and the plan awaits a report from the recently created Hastings Parking Authority committee. The action was taken after a long discussion, and despite the fact that the downtown mer­ chants offered to supplement lost parking meter revenue. Voting to table were Aidermen Edward CauHn. Michael Huver. Gordon Fuhr. Stuart Clement and Ivan Snyder. Voting against it were Aidermen Lynn Brown. Dennis Cleveland and William Cook Robert Johnson of the Chamber of Commerce, Jerry Beckwith and others represented the merchants. They asked Dial a parking mall be established on State Street between Michigan and Church, and that all parking meters on streets be removed Parking would be at a 60 degree angle The indicated that they had the money to supplement the lost revenues through July 1, the end of the City’s fiscal year. State Police Sgt. Ted Niewiada, director of traffic and safety for the fourth district, had been invited to the council session and said that statistics showed that there were 52 percent fewer accidents after angle parking had been removed from streets. Mayor Cedric Morey said the parking problem must be con­ sidered along with the entire traffic program. The merchants agreed, but suggested that the parking mall would be a start, and the least expensive part of a major plan. The merchants were unanimous in opposing a con­ tinuation of parking meters in Hastings, asserting that help is needed to combat competition ‘‘and we should have cooperation.’’ PLAN VARIED EXHIBITS Farm machinery-ranging from crop dryers and portable feed grinders to chain saws, poultry equipment and other related items-will be on display at Michigan State University during Farmers’ Week March 20­ 24.

Main •The Superette By Pam Hammond Maple Valley High School It has only been the last few weeks that I have thought anyway but negative about drugs. But lately I’ve had to examine my own morals and see where 1 was at. and then realize I wasn’t in an utopia and that I can neither expect my world nor myself to be perfect. Always before it was easy enough to say drugs were bad because they weren't legal. But then I had to realize that killing Was legal in wars, and so mere law couldn’t determine my morals nor set my standards for me. The concept that drugs were addictive also added to my Sjument against drugs, but diction no longer means something bad to me; some people are addicted to a cause. “Drugs are an escape from reality has always been preached to me—but today many things determine our “syn­ thetic’’ society, and even love is a capitalized affair There probably are other reasons why or why not a person takes drugs, and J don’t want to sound like I’m saying drugs are OK I just hope that you aren't like I was. and that you can see the NEED in America for people to examine their own reasons for the way they feel.

Grand Hastings Baked Ham Loaf. Mashed Paia toes with Gravy. Buttered Mixed Vegetable*. Brownies Friday. March 17 Woodland's Hardware 1 had to laugh after I read the jazz-rock poll in the TK “Trumpet." This was the one ip which students make a loose choice between "jazz" or “rock" for the prom. Rock might be "now”, but like "now", it is a transient stage. Or a rebirth. Yes, let's call it a “re-evolution" of music. After the unprecedented introduction of electronic instruments in the 1960’s, music fell back to its rudimentary beginnings, rock. The "establishment" could not take such innovations in stride, they disapproved. Because they did. the youth uplifted rock as a symbol of independence. And the fast-buck artists and revolutionaries saw this and profited by its profuse proliferation. But it cannot last The fast-buck artists and revolutionaries will find it mutually unprofitable, because the youth will grow up. Those rock artists who do ride the wave will be musicians, those who love music for music’s sake, not for a dollar or revolution. With these new instruments, with more initiative than all their predecessors, they will put the harmony, sophistication, the "class’* back into music that the rock gimmick temporally ob­ scured.

Mary's Beauty Shop Hotel Hastings Call 945-5321 �Co - op Corner By Steven Stanton Maple Valley Co-op Student Spending my afternoons working in a real estate office, which also concentrates much energy on auctioneering, is not only interesting but also is an education in itself. I work for my father, William J. Stanton in his office in Vermontville. But even though I have been around these fields all my life, there is still a tremendous amount to learn. First of all, there are the auctions. By working the sales I have become acquainted with not only clerking but also the selling of the auctions. Along with these two jobs I have worked on the advertising phase of the business, which includes listing the sale, transposing the original copy to a uniform one for typing, the typing itself and then preparing it to be sent to the various newspapers where it will benefit the sale most. Referring to my work in the field of real estate, the ad­ vertising must again be done, and although it is done ih a dif­ ferent manner than the auction advertising, it serves the same purpose. It gets the properties which are for sale into the papers and to the attention of the prospective buyer. At the same time, I am also studying for my Representing our Maple Syrup Festival this year, the following junior girls have been chosen for the Queen’s court: Mari Prescott, Queen; Pam Dies. Alternate, Mary Jane Powers. Debbie Vide. Sue Weiler and Cindy Wright. This year's procedures in picking the court were changed by a new ruling from the Maple Syrup Festival Association. Along with the girls chosen from the school, each junior girl with a father who produces maple syrup products is also on the court. This invites more competition for the girls because judging will be based on their knowledge of syrup-making.

This year’s new creative writing class, instructed by Mrs. Dorothy Carpenter, participated in this year’s syrup festival by submitting suggestions for the festival theme and slogans.

"The largest percentage of the students ordering their class key are the boys,” Norma said. The graduation an­ nouncements are selling for 12 cents apiece.

It is new, to Hastings (meetings won’t begin until mid-April), but its aim is to be as old as the first century A.D., according to Virgil Felton, chairman, said. This nondenominational congregation is built on the fact that God has revealed through His Word the type of church He wants, chairman Felton said. In con­ trast to the will of an unchanging God. the numerous denominations In existence today attest that men have often added to or taken away from the simple, dynamic plan revealed in the God-inspired history of the church, the book of Acts, Felton added. “The plea of the Hastings Church of Christ is "Let’s get back to the Bible, take it as our only rule of faith and practice, speak where the Bible speaks and be silent where the Bible is silent.’’ The congregation pat­ terns itself after the church of the New Testament, striving to restore God’s church to what it was and what He wants it to be in practice, power, and freedom. As in the New Testament, the only creed of the congregation is Christ. As in the New Testament, their practice is, in matters of revealed faith, obedience; in matters of human opinion, PEOPLE'S BIBLE CHURCH E -Of M Mon 51419 Rd JwryL Fuller, Pastor Warn Sunday School. >1 am Worship, Wed 7:38 p.m. Prayer Service. 7 p m HASTINGS CONGREGATION OF JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES 720 West Cotfax St. Bible Let lure. 9 a.m .

Behind this new work is Professor Felton and students of Great Lakes Bible College in Lansing. Felton teaches history and practical ministerial classes at GlBC. He is also the director of New Churches of Christ, Evangelism, a church-planting organization. His many years of experience provide invaluable leadership for the students in­ volved in this work. Hastings Is the second of what will be an annual project by Great Lakes students. Last year’s work at Tecumseh, was the first. Working through correlated class programs or more often just through a desire to serve the Lord, students do the majority of the initial calling work. In the church’s infant stage they serve as teachers, youth leaders, and other areas of service. One junior or senior student will be the first minister of the new congregation. Services at the Hastings Church of Christ begin April 11th with a revival meeting each evening exepet Saturday of that week at 7:30 and Sunday morning and evening. Sunday services are Bible School 10 a.m., worship 11 am. and 7:30 p.m. The congregation meets in the Seventh-day Adventist building at the corner of Bond and East.

C.-r--------- :----------- It is our understanding that the Parking Commission recently appointed by the Hastings City Council has been studying the Mall situation and is ready to present a compromise plan that is believed reasonable and fair to all concerned-and most of us are very much concerned The City, running on a tight budget is very revenue conscious, and for good reason Merchants in the central retail area are also much concerned with the problem of added convenience for shoppers who use Hastings as a trading center. Most of us will agree that the merchants have reason for concern For many years. State Street was a “speedway” that divided the central business district into two parts and made pedestrian crossings rather risky The “Mall” idea tested during the Christmas season evoked'an excellent response-not alone for the free parking but more especially for the ease of angle and 90-degree parking Pedestrians, were enthused about the added ease and safety of crossing from one side of the street to the other After the Mall experiment ended, four-way stop signs were continued in effect at the State-Church and State-Jefferson in­ tersections. giving the pedestrians about the same protection as when the Mall was being tested The return to parallel parking, however, was popular with few, if any. A satisfactory solution should be well within the realm of possibility We are confident that the Parking Commission composed of Pat Hodges. Claude Gardner and Dick Jacobs, representing the merchants. Jack Laubaugh, Ken Miller and Jim Wisweil, representing the Planning Commission and Dennis Cleveland, Lynn Brown and Bill Cook, representing the City Council, has come up with a plan acceptable for enactment. Michigan's recently-enacted Presidential Primary scheduled for Tuesday, May 16 is intended to give every voter the chance to express a personal preference in the selection of Presidential nominees Whether or not this objective is accomplished depends on the attitude of the people, themselves Primaries here in the State have in the past attracted only a very small percentage of voters. If the same thing happens on May 16, it means that a small minority cf electors have selected candidates that may or may not accurately reflect public sentiment—and this, at a rather high cost. / However, the opportunity is there and if the vote is light, it will be the people and not the system which is at fault. The process of voting in a Presidential is not at all complicated and should be familiar to any who have ever voted in primaries for state offices. First, you will receive a ballot containing lists of Presidential candidates for the Democratic, Republican and American In­ dependent parties You may vote for the candidates of one party only. If you try to vote for more than one—a proceedure possible where paper ballots are used—you will void your entire vote. Second vote for the Presidential candidate you prefer Among those listed. If you do not favor any of those listed or can’t make up your mind, then you can vote for “uncommitted.” The total of this vote throughout the State could have effect on the selection of delegates representing Michigan at the National conventions. You will also be asked to mark your ballot for as many precinct delegates'Msted on your party ticket as are allotted to your precinct by the political party for whom you choose to vote. Normally, this number will vary from one to four depending on the size of the precinct—but the number for whom you can vote will be plainly listed on the ballot. Precinct delegates are at the base of the political structure. They are your own fellow citizens and neighbors and are elected for twoyear terms. It is the precinct delegates who, at the cocnty convention, will elect a smaller number of delegates to represent the county at the state convention In order to get on the primary ballot, a candidate for precinct delegate must file a nominating petition bearing at least fifteen signatures but not more than 20 with his county clerk by March 24 When this petition is filed, the candidate must jndicate whether he is committed to a particular candidate or whether he prefers to be listed as uncommitted Most precinct delegate candidates will probably list themselves as committed to a specific candidate If you vote for a specific presidential candidate, you are not confined to voting for precinct delegates committed to the presidential candidate for whom you voted. Nor will your vote here nullify in any way your vote for the presidential candidate of your choice Your vote for a specific presidential candidate, or your “un­ committed" vote, if you indicated it as such, becomes a part of the state total vote and so will be a factor in the selection of delegates for the National Convention. Michigan's national convention delegates are required by law to proportionately reflect the preference expressed by voters in the May 16th primary For example, during the first two ballots at the national convention, nd presidential candidate can claim all of Michigan’s delegate vote if at least five per cent of the primary voters preferred someone else In event of a close race between two or more presidential can­ didates in the state primary, a splinter vote for a third candidate totalling at least five percent of the total state vote could be an im­ portant factor at a national convention where the issue was in doubt At the State Convention, the counties or precincts making ig) the various congressional districts will meet in caucus to name delegates to the National Convention Republicans will elect two from each district for a total of thirty-eight. Democrats who produced a heavy vote for their party in the last election will have a total of ninety-nine In addition, each party at its state convention will elect delegates at large—ten for the Republicans and thirty-three for the Democrats. It is from these deleg a tes-at-large that the state delegations to the national conventions will be proportionally balanced to correspond with the presidential primary vote. Republicans, in all probability, will find their State convention dominated by a majority committed to the re-election of President Nixon Thus, any splinter votes will be comparatively simple to adjust. Democrats may find it necessary to apportion national delegatesTHE HASTINGS BANNER.........

Answers from the Book of Books Q. There are several different ages or dispensations. We live in the church age. Where does this fit in the over all picture and where does it end? A. The church age fits into the 70 weeks (of years) of Daniel 9:24-27 as "a hold" between the 69th and 70th week when Messiah (the Christ) is cut off v26. The church age ends with Revelation Chapter 3. "After this (these things). . come up hither.. .. and I will shew thee things which must be here after (after these things) Revelation 4:1. e Q When will we have real peace? A. When the seventh angel speaks and there were great voices in heaven saying ",. .The Kingdoms of this world are become the knigdoms of our Ixjrd, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever” Revelation U:15, 12:10 "And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.” Daniel 2:44.

The week is particularly special to members of the Hastings Council, who will be observing the 50th anniversary of the organization of a Camp Fire Girls Council here. Foraided in 1910 by Dr. and Mrs. Luther Halsey Gulick with the assistance of a group of men and women noted for their un­ derstanding of the special needs of children, Camp Fire Girls was a new idea in youth work in the United States. The program provides for both individual achievement and group adjustment, according to an information pamphlet available from Mrs. Ethel Miller, executive director of the Hastings Council. While a basic program is provided, a wide cnoice of ac­ tivities is given, encouraging the creative and imaginative ap^ proach from members, the pamphlet says. "Since its founding, Camp Fire Girls has been dedicated to the spiritual ideals of the home and training for family living. Emphasis is placed on the traditional role of women to comfort and nurture, on beauty and on aesthetic and spiritual values." Varied Program Meets Needs The program is varied to meet the needs of girls in four program levels. Girls may join Blue Birds when they are seven and eight, or in the 2nd and 3rd grades. When they are 9,10 and 11 years old (or in 4th through 6th grades), they may become Camp Fire Girls. At 12 and 13, or in the 7th and 8th grades, girls may be Junior Hi Camp Fire Girls. Membership in the Horizon Club is open to girls 14 and over, or in ninth grade through high school. Mrs. Miller said there are approximately 54 groups in the Hastings Council, which includes Hastings, Delton, Freeport and Nashville. The Blue Bird, Camp Fire and Junior Hi Camp Fire groups are limited to 20 mem­ bers. A Horizon Club may have as many as 30 girls, so that the teenager may have greater scope in which to develop her leader­ ship abilities. Camp Fire Girls meet every week during the school calendar year and have a varied program, often visiting interesting places and working on community service projects Elderly patients or neighbors are visited and helped, baby-care courses are held, girls learn to cook and sew and go hiking and on camp^iuts to learn more about the out-of­ doors. They have special projects in handicrafts and hobbies, work on science craft projects, learn about their state and country and do special projects for their churches. The girls may decide to do something for the conservation cause, Mrs. Miller said, such as Blue Bird Leaders Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Miss Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Robert Benner Ernest Appleman Charles Turnes Claude Hammood David Wendt Jim Farrah William Bateman John Cuddahee Jerry Cross Robert Corkwell Carol Tinkler Gordon Bennett Charles Harthy LArry Neil Donal Sorby Annetta Bobo Jerry Burroughs Geri Sue Baleman Jack McCarty D.

Co-Ed dubs Allowed Older girls are concerned about the community, vocational interest and self improvement. The Horizon Clubs are allowed to be co-ed and they may have men for advisors. They may meet either once a week or bi­ weekly. Several Council-wide activities are held annually. The yearly candy sale helps provide fisids for Council operation and for group projects Roller skating parties, a Carnival and the Grand Council Fire, at which time girls receive Rank Achievement awards, are also annual events. Both men and women may serve Camp Fire Giris in many capacities. They may sponsor a group, be members of the board of directors of councils, or presidents and committee chairmen. Councils are incorporated under state laws and formulate their own by-laws which must be approved by the National Council. Within National Council policies and recommended practices, local councils have autonomy to determine work emphasis and direction, as well as participation in nationally proposed projects. Charters are renewed annually upon receipt of reports which must meet national requirements. "AU in aD," Mrs. Miller said in summary, "Camp Fire Girls provides self achievement as well as group achievement and helps girls to become good citizens of their community."

Correspondents seemed to Have found political significance in trivial things, such as the way Nixon handled his chopsticks or the way a Chinese played “Home on the Range". These "niceities" seem meaningless in a world that is still plagued tty killing, maiming and intense rivalries. Normal diplomatic relations between China and the U.S. are long overdue. Both sides agree on this fact. However, the barriers of Taiwan and the war in In­ dochina are stalling the business of normalizing relations. Nixon publicly warned, on his departure from China, that 20 years of hostility cannot be erased'in one week of talks. In retrospect, relations bet­ ween the U.S. and China can never be the same after this visit, and they are bound to improve. Henceforth, Nixon and Mao will speak "man to man”, rather than U.S. "imperialist" to a Chinese "expansionist". There will definitely be an increase in commerce between China and the U.S. This may even boosLpur national economy Chma does not want to em­ brace the U.S. too tightly, for fear she may jeopardize her chances for leadership in Asia, Africa, and other ‘ developing" coun­ tries. Historically, China has a fear of Japanese aggression All of these situations determine China’s attitude of "how far loo go" in diplomatic relations with the U.S. Russia fears that a Chinese alliance with the U.S. may eventually create a military threat along the border it shares with China. Knowing this, Russia will probably try to freeze the developing thaw between the the U.S. and China in some way. In an effort to get in the picture during the visit, Russia has begun to pay off its old war debts which it has neglected until now’. Perhaps when Nixon visits tjpe Soviet Union in May we will know the actual impact inflicted upon the Kremlin. Those toasts in Peking and other gestures of cordiality do not mean the end of the conflict in the Far East, nor do they insure an era free of other conflicts and warfare. President Nixon wanted the whole world to view his visit to China as a historic moment for diplomacy, as one of the greatest gestures for world peace in this century. Esaku Sato. Japan’s By Robert L. Bennett Lakewood High School The Government department at Lakewood high school intends to conduct a voter registration drive and before this happens I thought a few facts might be helpful. The first thing to be considered is who may register to vote. This is most important because thope who should register should know who they are. The state law says that a person must register by the fifth Friday before an election. A 17 year old may register if he will be 18 before or on the next election. This year there will be a primary election May 16, for which you must be registered by April 14. Another law to remember is the state residency requirement. A person must have lived in the slate for six months before he can vote. By JonStaller Lakewood High School It has come to my attention and probably many other students that Lakewood has a smoking problem. The problem at Lakewood has apparently gotten so bad that the school board has had to hire an administrative aid, Mrs. Ruth Rischow, to patrol the girl’s restrooms for so-called "Ladies” who think they can get in a quick smoke between classes. Some girls suggest they have the right to smoke because they are 18 or because everyone is doing it. Others have proposed a smoking room at Lakewood. Both suggestions beg the question. Should the Lakewood administration give in to the wims of a few? I hope not. Smoking may be “in" for status reasons or whatever, but for the Lakewood administration to go along with demands from a few students is to actually encourage smoking. We don’t need that.

Keith Champion, ex-captain of both basketball and football teams, was also well known for his baseball hitting ability during high school. Champion is currently majoring in physical education at Western Michigan University, preparing to be a teacher and a coach. He reports that he has taken several courses in coaching at WMU and that his new job gives him an opportunity to put theories to work. In addition to realizing an ambition held since high school to be a coach, Champion at the same time is filling a vacancy in the coaching staff, created when Paul Jones left last year. At a recent meeting, about 15 hopefuls showed up who were interested in the track team. Familiar faces from last year’s squad included Jim Jaglowski, Nate Frie, Max Raymond, Bob Doster, Chip Brawer, Steve Puffpaff and Steve Alman. Although Coach Champion indicated that it is still too early to predict the kind of season to expect from his squad, he did Bint to a couple of returnees as ight spots in the group. Last year Steve Puffpaff broke the pole vault record for the school and Jim Jaglowski turned in some good times in the mile run. Champion appealed to all Delton high school boys to give track some serious thought. He pointed out that the training is an excellent conditioner for all sports and that it gives an in­ dividual an opportunity to compete on a one to one basis, rather than as a member of a team. ‘‘It is an individual sport where one can show self-pride," he said. ‘‘The guys all seem eager to go, and I sure am." He added that he thinks coaching relies largely upon the coach's willingness to work with the kids and this is one aspect of the job he looks forward to. The coaching responsibilities fill out the day for Champion. He attends WMU in the morning, coaches track at Delton in the afternoon and works an eight hour shift at Brown Paper Company in Kalamazoo at night. Champion’s wife is now doing her student teaching in sociology at Delton, working with Mr. Christensen. Principal Willard J. Baker said he is pleased to add Champion to the coaching staff. ‘‘Keith is a great athlete and comes highly recommended,” he said. “I am sure he will do an excellent job at Delton.” MV Students Study New Grammar By Debbie Feighner Frontier Days Created For Syrup Festival By Debbie Wright ‘'Antique Americana via Vermontville’s Maple Magic” holds as theme for the 1972 Maple Syrup Festival. Following this theme, a combination of ideas from Mark Andrews and Gary Craun, the festival creates a frontier picture. They were selected from a variety of themes submitted by the creative writing class. This year’s aueen, Mari Prescott, and her alternate, Pam Dies along with the court, will dress in frontier style and ride through the parade on fancy horses and buggys. Syrup producers and local merchants will wear frontier apparel also, in order to coor­ dinate the whole day and follow the theme. Any club or class wishing to participate in the parade may submit an ‘‘Original Entry” (not necessarily a float), in step with the frontier routine, according to Mr. and Mrs. Leroy Wion, parade chairmen. Bonnets, bow lets, high hats, vests and pioneer costumes may be ordered from Mrs. Dorothy Carpenter, room B-4, at the high school. What does Grammar mean to you? At MV, Mrs. Julia Swartz is trying a new, easier approach to grammar. Traditiohal grammar was based on Latin, but since English is not based on this, these new rules are set up to describe the why and how of English rather than prescribe how it is supposed to be. This new transformational grammar has no exceptions to the rule. Also, with this new system almost every student can achieve, simply because it is logical. Mrs. Swartz plans to study phonenics, which will hopefully improve spelling through the awareness of sound, the developement of language, its origin and syntax, which is the study of parts of sentences.

Pre-Spring Learn Shorthand For Better Jobs, TK Grads Say By The TK Business Education Department For career-minded students, shorthand is almost a must, that is, if they want to earn more money, to go farther toward the top and to have a more in­ teresting and varied job. Ibis observation includes the fellows since more and more men are becoming private secretaries. One of TK’s graduates, Carolyn Lewis Stonehocker, who went immediately after graduation in June, 1970, to work for the FBI in Washington, D.C., and then in to a better job with International Telephone and Telegraph Company, says "You know, nowadays it’s rfeally ridiculous for students not to take shorthand in high school. You can make so much more money. With my job, shorthand was required, although I’m lucky if I get to use it once a month. I really miss not using it more because I used it so much when I worked for the FBI.” Rosemary Cool Count, class of '70 also has found her shorthand training very valuable. She says, “My ability to take dictation In shorthand got me my job at Bliss in Hastings and when other office workers were being laid off due to the recession, I was kept on because of my shorthand. My starting salary was higher too.” To get back to the fellows, more and more executives "on the go” prefer to hire men as their private secretaries because it is easier to take a man when they jet to far-away places like Tokyo, Moscow, Paris, etc. If you would like to be where the action is, a secretary’s job will put you there. The business education departments of TK offers both Shorthand I and II with most students having the proficiency after Shorthand II to go directly out of high school into a Central Garage, Inc.

Through the years, the funeral director has been passed off as someone different. He never smiles or has any fun. He always speaks in hushed tones. He perennially wears just-pressed black suit. The truth, of course, is that we're people, just like you. We have the same human interests and habits and faults as other people. And maybe that's what makes us good funeral directors: we understand your feelings in time of loss because we feel the same way in our own time of loss. * LE0I1RRD OSGOOD -funenal-Monie CMARLESM LEONARD D OSGOOO CORNER WALNUT AND S JEFFERSON HASTINGS PHONE 944M71 No Cost Or Obligation To Discuss Your Money Management Program Call 945-9451 1608 5.

Barnett Attorney for Executor 101 W. State Street Hastings. Michigan rtOM J ye Says Farmers Not Getting Fair Prices Nationwide television shows notwithstanding, farmers are getting only 72 percent of parity, or a fair price, compared with* their costs of production, President Duane Langs of the Barry County NFO said. Parity is the standard measurement of farm returns. It is an official ration that reflects both prices paid to farmers and the rising costs of machinery, taxes and other production items. I^angs was critical of a recent national television program that showed shoppers walking past meat counters, contending it failed to inform viewers what the farmer received for the various meat items involved. “The Department of Agriculture’s reports in January show beef producers were doing the best in years with prices up to 88 percent of parity,’1 he saia. ,rHogs were bringing only 76 Grcent of parity, turkeys were inging 68 percent, lambs were bringing 72 percent, and eggs were bringing only 49 percent ." Duane Langs said grain producers weren’t -doing even that well. "Wheat, which makes up about one-tenth of the cost of a loaf of bread, was bringing only 45 percent of parity in the market in mid-Jannary," he said. "Corn at the farm was bringing only 56 percent of parity, milk was 69 percent, soybeans 72 percent, rye 53 percent, and grain sorghum 59 percent." The NFO president said it is ridiculous to charge farmers with getting excessive prices and particularly to blame them for retail prices which include all the markups of processors, handlers and other middlemen "There’s less than 3 cents worth of wheat in the pound loaves of bread being sold for 26 to 30 cents a loaf at retail,” he said “The farmer was getting more than 50 percent of the food ex­ penditures of consumers in the 1940’s but the price spreads have increased now to the point where we get less than 39 percent." Langs noted that Congress authoriied price ceilings on farm products at not less than 110 percent of parity during World War H. "We have a long way to go to reach that level, or to reach economic security for farmers, with these prices,” he said. "The final test of whether farm prices are fair is what is hap­ pening to the farmers and with about 2,000 a week selling or being closed out, it is obvious they are far short of prices that provide cost of production plus a reasonable profit." • "Beyond old farmers closing out, the hopes of thousands of young farm people to get started on the land are crushed every year. There is no future for them. "Farm people should let broadcasters who misrepresent the farm situation know what they think, emphatically.” FOR SOFTBALL PLAYERS Anyone in the Middleville or Caledonia areas in Class B, Gass C or slow pitch softball, in­ terested in playing league ball write Duane Peterson, Mid­ dleville High School, Attn: Softball league.

Paul Siegel in behalf of the City of Hastings has filed a suit In Barry County Circuit Court seeking to recover 81,394.76 in taxes paid on the municipal airport levied by Rutland Township. The complaint also asks for reimbursement for costs of tbe action. The City Council voted Feb. 14 to pay the tax under protest.

It also points out that the State and Federal governments had contributed substantial sums for the field's construction and improvement.

Barn County's Worst Storm Ever: See Pages 6 & 7. Council Okays Parking, Free Offstreet Lots On the unanimous recom­ mendation of the Parking Authority Committee appointed by Mayor Cedric Morey, Hastings is to have a “parlung mall” on State Street between Michigan and Church, but it will be metered parking at a 90 degree angle. Meters are to remain on the other streets in the business district, but there will be free parking in the municipality's off street parking lots. But there will be a two-hour limit. All meters will have a two-hour maximum time limit. Counciimen approving the committee's recommendation included William Cook, Dennis Cleveland, Ivan Snyder, Lynn Brown, Stuart Clement and Edward Caukin. Only Michael Huver dessented. ' The Parking Authority Com­ mittee included Aldermen Cleveland, Brown and Cook, Kenneth Miller, James Wiswell and Jack Laubaugh representing the Parking Commission, and Patrick Hodges, Richard E. Jacobs and Claude Gardner. City Atty. Paul Segel is to draw up an amendment to the parking ordinance to implement the Parking Mall plan. The Chamber of Commerce had been vigorously pushing for a parking mall in the downtown area, and for the elimination of all meters. The Council formally approved the Chamber of Commerce plans for the Sport and Boat Show to be held Saturday. April 29.

Paul Siegel in behalf of the City of Hastings has filed a suit In Barry County Circuit Court seeking to recover 81,394.76 in taxes paid on the municipal airport levied by Rutland Township. The complaint also asks for reimbursement for costs of the action. The City Council voted Feb. 14 to pay the tax under protest. In its suit, the City claims that the airport has been used as a municipal field and that it is exempt from taxation under Michigan law. It also points out that the State and Federal governments had contributed substantial sums for the field's construction and improvement. One young man was killed and his passenger critically injured about 5:30 a.m. Saturday, March 18, when their car slammed into a tree eight feet off the Lockshore Road just south of the Milo Road. Deputy Larry Gay of the Barry County Sheriff's Department reported. Pronounced dead at the scene by Dr. James Hogan was Lester Lee Fireman. 19. Ill Shelbyville. March Road, and taken to Borgesi Hospital in Kalamazoo was Brad Perkins, 18, R3 Shelbyville. Perkins was thrown out and suffered a fractured leg, multiple facial lacerations. He had a severe cut above the left ear and another from above the right eye to his ear. Deputy Gav said Fleeman was driving north in a Volkswagen when the car left the road. The left front smashed into the tree. A wrecker was used to move the wreckage so that the body could be removed. Death was due to suffocation, a fractured jaw and other injuries. The young men were en route towards their homes in the Orangeville area Perkins is employed by the Viking Cor­ poration in Hastings, as is his twin brother. The body was taken to the Marshall & Gren Funeral Home at Plainwell. ANNUAL MEETING DAY Saturday, April 1, is the annual meeting day for more than 1,200 Michigan townships. Barn County's Worst Storm Ever: See Pages 6 & 7. Council Okays Parking, Free Offstreet Lots On the unanimous recom­ mendation of the Parking Authority Committee appointed by Mayor Cedric Morey, Hastings is to have a “parlung mall” on State Street between Michigan and Church, but it will be metered parking at a 90 degree angle. Meters are to remain on the other streets in the business district, but there will be free parking in the municipality's off street parking lots. But there will be a two-hour limit. All meters will have a two-hour maximum time limit. Counciimen approving the committee's recommendation included William Cook, Dennis Cleveland, Ivan Snyder, Lynn Brown, Stuart Clement and Edward Caukin. Only Michael Huver dessented. ' The Parking Authority Com­ mittee included Aldermen Cleveland, Brown and Cook, Kenneth Miller, James Wiswell and Jack Laubaugh representing the Parking Commission, and Patrick Hodges, Richard E. Jacobs and Claude Gardner. City Atty. Paul Segel is to draw up an amendment to the parking ordinance to implement the Parking Mall plan. The Chamber of Commerce had been vigorously pushing for a parking mall in the downtown area, and for the elimination of all meters. The Council formally approved the Chamber of Commerce plans for the Sport and Boat Show to be held Saturday. April 29.

We have read some mixed-up Supreme Court decisions in our time, but nothing to even approach the one concerning marijuana (or "pot” to use a more common term) handed down by our own august Tribunal here in Michigan. Apparently no two of the justices quite understood or agreed with what the others were saying and yet there multi-page, muddled opinion nullified any control over this dangerous weed until a new law passed by the legislature goes into effect in April—and, who knows, maybe that, too, will be dubbed “unconstitutional." The practical effect of this decision was to legalize pot—so much so, that pot smokers puffed away on the Capitol steps and authorities dared not interfere. All this, in our opinion, points to the fact that our present method of selecting justices leaves much to be desired. We are loading up the tribunal with per­ sonality guys and social experimentars—but there is a dearth of sound judicial ability. That is not as it should be. A supreme court should command the respect of everyone—but that is not now the situation. A sensible compromise plan in regard to the reestablishment of a parking mall on State Street has been accepted by the Hastings City Council on the basis of recommendations submitted bv members of a nine-man parking authority committee authorized by the.Council and appointed by Mayor Cedric Morey. ♦ Of major concern to the business community is the fact that State Street will be closed to through traffic ahd 90-degrce parking will be established on both sides of the street between the Church Street and Michigan Avenue intersections. The effect will be to change this twoblock area into a parking center for the use and convenience of those who come here to trade. Motorists will be asked to observe a 15 mph speed limit while driving in this area. All this, we believe, represents a big step forward in the right direction. Parking will not be free, as may be hoped. However, the meters will be set for a two-hour limit—-A dime will buy yoli two full hours of parking time; a nickle, one full hour; each penny will buy twelve OF THE PEOPLE minutes of time for those on a hurry-up, shop-and-go mission. At this rate, parking will not be costly and the small charge invloved may be ‘ To the Editor: To the Editor a factor in stimulating a more rapid turnover of those using the area.

To the Editor: Talk about the atom bomb—Old Mother Nature, too, has a lethal punch—and, except for the crash of falling branches, how silently she does her work! Realization of the full extent of the ice storm damage here came slowly—and in view of the extent to which phone as well as electrical service had been knocked out .that was not too surprising. Naturally, there was considerable criticism over the “slowness” in which services were restored. However, even a “super-expert ” could not quickly have estimated the over all damage done nor have concocted a workable time schedule for the restoration of service. It is a fact, that all available help here and crews brought in from the outside did their best to get the damage repaired. Returning from Battle Creek at 11.00 o'clock Wednesday evening, we passed at least eight Consumers Power and Michigan Bell crews out repairing damaged lines under miserable working conditions. So, we feel in­ dined to say, “an editorial salute to the dedicated repair crews who labored around the clock to rectify the extensive damage done in the course of a few hours, by a fickle and unpredictable “Mother Nature ” We thought that the University of Michigan—our old "Alma Mater"—had gone pretty far out, when it turned its back on a dor­ mitory experiment in the area of boy-girl bunk rooms.

However, the learned judges and womens lib to the contrary notwithstanding, we still contend that there is a "difference”—and as a Frenchman would say -Vive la difference.”—and may it one day. once again have the consideration and respect which is its due. 4 ..THE HASTINGS BANNER.........

Aunt "Tin”, was first Cynthia-Rosella Cramer, who married Frank Chaffee, he died quite young, she was a widow, many years, before marrying Mr. Hammond. Cynthia was B.C.

I well remember, one of Mr. Sigler's first trials in Barry County. I was sent to report on it by M.L. Cook since it involved a man from my neighborhood, whom I will not name, as it would embarras his family. Mr. Sigler was an awesome figure in court or anywhere. He had a "Mark Twainish” manner, which one cannot describe, but was very powerful, in manner and his dress, which always included spats and cane, with matching hat to fit the other garments, were extraordinarily worn, to perfextion.

Entire sections of Hastings were without elec­ tricity. and telephone lines were down. • Crewmen worked around the clock in restoring services. No serious injuries were reported in Barry County, but one man working for a private contractor on Consumers Power lines was electrocuted in the Albion area. Hall said the storm was the worst ever to hit this Cpnsumers division. The Spring breakup of roads handicapped workmen, and special tractor equipment had to be brought in. Director Barr praised the wonderful cooperation he had received from all organizations: the Red Cross, the Barry County Sheriff's Department, Hastings police and the officers in other communities. Area schools opened their facilities for families needing warm places to sleep, and friends and relatives gathered together to share their homes. Barr said a family at Guernsey Lake even had unknown “good Samaritans'* bring them wood so they could keep warm. Farmers helped to clear roads. Those without power reverted to milking by hand, while others obtained portable generators. However, many who milked by hand had to dispose of the milk because of lack of cooling equipment. Barr said the Sunset Nursing home's power had been restored within a half-hour after the problem had been reported to Consumers. Tri-County Electric Cooperative, serving parts of Maple Grove, Assyria and Castleton Townships, and the O. & A. Cooperative of Newaygo, reported Service had been restored quite early in Irving, but their workmen had problems in Hope Township where crewmen had to replace poles, with a major line serving Rutland. Johnstown. Baltimore and Barry Townships. In one area 15 poles in a row were knocked down like bowling pins. Hastings sewage plant was out of power from about 3 p.m. Monday until 6 a.m. on Tuesday. Director of Public Services Michael Klovanich estimated the extra cost of cleaning up the City at $25,000. Residents are per­ mitted to take their trees and branches to the municipal dump free of charge. Only brush can be taken to the dump on Monday. Wednesday B»nd Friday. Brush and other trash can be taken on regular days. Tuesday. Thursday and Saturday, but only the brush can be brought in without charge. Municipal crews began the cleanup in the First and Second W ards. taking all of the branches and trees placed on the parking area, between the sidewalk and curb. The City rented a chipper from the Davey Company, and Klovanich was attempting to get another one Davey might also be hired to work on frees. One crew of five is working with the chipper and one truck, and the other crew has the frontend loader and four trucks. With a chipper, one truck'can haul seven times as much as a truck hauling branches in bulk. The chipped up wood is saved for use around playground equipment and mulch. The storm*8 results caused considerable absenteeism from area offices and plants. Schools were closed early on Monday, and most of them remained closed Tuesday and Wednesday. Hastings school buses were running only on hard-surfaced roads due to the Spring breakup. Engineer-Manager Jack L. Kineman reported Monday that most of the Barry Road Com­ mission highways are "passable" and that the trees and limbs have been pushed out of the roadway. The trees will just have to lay there until we get the time and the money to pick them up. Kineman said.

Kineman said Monday, and crews were scrapping them and making them passable. "We hope the people will be patient. We’ve got everyone working at it we can, and we’ll get the roads in shape just as fast as we can. I surely appreciate the school busses staying off the gravel roads when they’re like this. If we don’t get too much rain, buses may be able to travel the roads later this week. This warm weather will help.” A rural Bellevue family was treated at Pennock Hospital Thursday, March 16, suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning from a gas generator. State Police said the Elton Norris family of seven became ill. Norris was using a gas generator in his garage to keep electrical power going to a freezer.

THE HASTINGS BANNERMarch 22. 1»72 �During Poison Prevention Week Druggists Warn Of Drug Hazards, Accidental Poisonings The natural curiosity of children leads to many, if not most, accidental poisonings, according to three local phar­ macists, members of the ‘ Michigan Pharmaceutical Association which, in conjunction with the American Pharamaceutical Association, is now sponsoring National Poison Prevention Week, March 19-25. Claude Gardner, owner of Gardner’s Pharmacy, warns that when children see medicines on the bedside table, drain cleanser on the floor and furniture polish left on the table they will touch and tast them, which frequently results in tragedy. While agreeing with Gardner's remarks. Richard Jacobs, owner of Jacob's Pharmacy, added that* although manufacturers of drugs have developed several bottles, children can still get into them if they are left within a child's reach. “Kids are pretty clever and they don’t always realize what they are doing," he said "So the best way to avoid accidental poisoning is to keep drugs out of reach. Pills left in ladies' purses is a good example of carelessness, since children often play in them, open the bottles and eat the pills.’’ Many items which adults frequently use and don't or­ dinarily consider harmful, such as aspirin and iron tablets, taken by many women, can be deadly poison for children. Aspirin is the leading agent Involved in household poisoning of children, responsible for 19 per cent of childhood ingestions in 1969, the last year for which statistics arc available. Pennock Hospital records show that four children were admitted during 1971 for treatment of accidental poisonings Two children had swallowed aspirins, one drank gasoline and the fourth consumed a rust spot remover MEOjcm^cHesT 101 N.

This new effort, scheduled to coincide with Poison Prevention Week, is the “Safety Medicine Chest". The medicine chest is a plastic storage unit for home use in securing drugs and medicines out of reach of children. It features a high-speed combination locking device which is easily operated by any adult, but which is sure to frustrate attempts to open it by toddlers. Order blanks for the chests are available at Bosley's, and soon will be available at Jacob’s and Gardner’s. The chests wil] be sold at cost, $5.00, and are or­ dered directly from the Michigan Pharmaceutical Association. The dangers and tragic toll of accidental poisonings should involve year-round attention by parents, who should not rely on discipline or warnings to prevent poisonings among pre-school children, the Pharmaceutical Association cautions. - Their memories are short and they can not remember a warning of a danger, or even appreciate its meaning. Many accidents occur because parents think they can relax their vigil, having “taught” their young children about poisoning dangers. There are no statistics readily available to show how many others received emergency room treatment and were not admitted to the hospital. Richard Fluke, hospital director, said that any poisoning cases which doctors here cannot handle are sent to Grand Rapids or Ann Arbor to the regional poison control centers. Cooperating with the theme of this year's National Poison Prevention Week, “Search and Destroy,” proclaimed by ITesident Nixon, Dave Zasperse, manager of Bosley’s Pharmacy, urges parents to locate and dispose of old and no-longerneeded household substances which could lead to accidental poisonings, especially medications in the home. "The first step in ‘poison­ proofing’ the home should be to remove all unused, unneeded drugs and medicines from the medicine cabinet and to flush them down the toilet," he said. "Then make sure those prescription and non­ prescription medications which are needed are made secure from the curiosity and prying hands of children.” This year Michigan phar macists are announcing tirely new statewide poison THE HASTINGS BANNER.........

Then comes the long drawn out process of waiting to see if the young sires daughters are better than com­ parable cows in the same herds. In determining selection of cows for selective matins pedigree, type, individual and cow family production are considered. No cow is absolutely perfect and the next task is to select a bull which is superior in most respects and who is carring especially strong traits to correspond with weaknesses of the cow. On the day this picture was taken the organization carefully scrutinized pedigrees and cumperterized facts of about a dozen cows and several young sires.

Fifty-eight said they believed their moral standards were about the same as those held by their parents and other adults, 34 thought their moral standards were higher, but 40 thought they were lower. Asked how they feel about the prices they are charged for things sold primarily for young people—from rock records or tapes to surfboards—81 thought prices were jacked up to capitalize on young people, 20 thought prices were set lower so young people can better afford it and 32 thought prices were about There were 57 who said they would do almost anything to stay off welfare, 40 said they would apply but would feel em­ barrassed, and 34 said that’s what welfare is for, and "I’d have no hesitation in signing up for it." Only 25 thought there was a wide generation gap between them, their parents and other adults, 69 said the gap wasn't large, but 40 said there is no gap. President Richard Nixon would win over Edmund Muskic if the 7th graders had their way. There were 79 who said they would vote for Nixon’s reelection and 59 voted for Muskie. But if Edward Kennedy was on the Democratic primary ballot, he would overwhelm the others. Kennedy received 58 "voles,” Hubert Humphrey 20, Edmund Muskie 17, Shirley Chisholm 13, John Lindsay 11, George Wallace 9. George McGovern 5 and Henry Jackson one. Scholastically, 22 of the 7th graders thought their courses were up to date with the world as they see it, 88 thought some of them were but 25 said much of it doesn't relate to today's world. Asked how they would feel about students calling teachers by their first names. 50 said they would be in favor of it. 48 would be opposed and 36 didn't know. The kids had a variety of ideas on how they plan to spend most of (heir summer vacation. Eight . arc going to summer camp, 26 plan to work for pay. 32 with travel. 21 will stay at home and enjoy the beach, three plan on summer school, 26 were going to do something else then those listed and 16 didn't have antf plans.

Hastings High Eyes ’72 Baseball Season The Hastings High varsity baseball outlook for the coming season lacks bright, with nine lettermen return from last season, including five regulars. Coach Bernie Oom reports Led by all conference 1st team selections Bob Terry, Carl Norris, and Rick Powell, the successful season. Four Saxons who did most of the pitching last year are back, including Norris, 9-2: Mark Ostroth. 4-1; Ed Hurley, 0-3, and Powell (O-l). Norris led the league in pit­ ching and Powell topped all West Central League nitters last spring with a .500 average. Powell also led in home runs and RBI's. Lost through graduation were six senior three of whom were regulars: Damon Perdue, Colin Cruttenden and Tim Henion. Ten seniors, six juniors and two sophomores are fighting for positions on the It man varsity squad. » Competing for the catching spot left vacant bv Cruttenden will be Denny Armstrong, a senior; Steve McPhail, a junior, and Dave Black, sophomore. Filling the vacancy at first base will be Powell or Norris when they are not pitching, and possibly Mike Jacobs, a senior. Last year's second baseman, Dale Traister, will be moved to the outfield. Working out to fill that position are Jeff Burpee and Ron Koutz both fine juniors up from the J.V. team. Terry is back for his 3rd season at shortstop and Hurley returns at 3rd base. Battling for the outfield positions are seniors Ostroth, Traister, Steve Brogan, Mitch St. Martin. Jacobs, junior Bob Lydy and Dave Black. The Saxons were 15-8 last year with an 8-8 record in the con­ ference. 81. Johns and Waverly shared the championship with 9-5 records. Included in this year’s schedule are games with Portage Nor­ thern and Portage Central, as well as Middleville. Delton, Marshall, Forest Hills, Lakewood, and Battle Creek Central. Coach Oom said: ‘‘This could be the Saxon’s big year This is the best group of baseball players I have had since 1969. The potential of this pit­ ching staff is very encouraging. If we can fill the catching spot we are going to be hard to beat.’’ BOWENS MILLS LADIES AID PANCAKE SUPPER-March 24 Bowens Mills Ladies Aid Hall.

It is more than just something to believe in, it can be a driving force, or a guiding light, it can give me strength or provide a refuge from stress. More basically it can be a way of life, something very tangible, very influential, yet seemingly intangible when trying to describe its meaning or influence on my life. This faith starts in a belief in God. Not just the fact that there is a God but honestly accepting what God has done and can do to influence my life and the world. It is almost common place to bear someone projecting the theory that God does not exist. Our scientific training can raise doubts as to the existence of God. We are trained to except and believe theories which have been proven to us and in the same vane of thought we begin to have doubts about those beliefs that the scientific approach has not Coven. Through faith and being nest with ourselves, which to me is a form of faith, we should show the advocates of the scientific approach that they cannot destroy our belief in God simply because they cannot prove his existence. If we must place great value on the proof principal, make God's enemies prove he does not exist, before we allow them to destroy our faith. Through faith in God a person should want to pursue the word of God more earnestly than he pursues any theory that might question the existence of Goa This pursuit will strengthen your faith and brings each of us to the realization that Christ actually is my Savior. He showed his love by allowing himself to be Cursified so I would be saved. He has already performed this deed, he didn’t wait for me to do my thing first I feel my life is important, since I can use it to show Christ that I am grateful for what he has done for me. I feel a person should use those opportunities that are presented to hjm to let his life and actions be an example of what faith in God means to him. If we are honest with ourselves we realize our action, toward our fellow human beings show what our faith really means to each of us.

For instance, freshman Dennis Basset is making a lawn trailer to pull behind a lawn tractor. Some of the other boys are on the verge of taking metal and making such things as hay hooks, chisels, crow bars, screw drivers and almost anything they please. In the auto mechanics class Mark Barton and Curt Benedict are taking apart a jeep and rebuilding it. Rich Formaz is rebuilding Warren Ison’s Comet for him. Dick Cobb is making a snowmobile trailer and Clayton Swift started on a snow sled, tyike Hammond plans to bring in a car to rebuild. The HHS bands are recognized throughout the stale as two of the finest high school bands ever to be presented, and two bands which the entire community should pride itself on.

Mein Nashville 852-9833 Spring Fresh It won’t be long before you begin seeing driver education cars on the streets and highways of our county. You may get ’hung up” behind one, or see a young student nearly make a serious mistake and catch yourself saying: "Boy. am I glad that he’s the instructor in that car and not me.” This article is to more thoroughly acquaint you with our Hastings Area Public Schools Driver Education program, and hopefully cause you to understand it better. Any person, under age 18. planning Io get a license to drive must first successfully pass an approved course in driver education The only legal driving on public streets allowed before licensing, in under the super­ vision of a qualified driver education instructor in a car having dual controls. The public schools of Michigan are required by law to provide a course in driver education. Some of the minimum requirements that the State requests are: (1) The hours of classroom instruction shall not be less than 30 clock hours with no more than two hours of classroom instruction per day per student. (2) The length of the program shall not be less than three weeks. (3) Classroom in­ struction and laboratory ex­ perience shall be scheduled in an integrated and correlated sequence. (4) The driving ex­ perience shall be not less than six clock hours per student. <S> Student driving experience shall not be in excess of one hour per day. Many schools barely meet these and other minimum requirements, which is by no means a quality type of program. It just meets the bare needs of most students. Cost does, however, prohibit the expansion of the program. The State does reimburse the school district up to $30 per student who completes the course This does not come near covering the total cost ofcthe rtis year at Hastings High School we are attempting to improve the quality of the program without increasing the cost. We feel that we can improve the program within the framework of 30 classroom hours and six hours behind the wheel instruction This year s program will call for shortening the classroom period from two hours to m hours which will allow students a longer overall period of time to assimilate materials taught. Two hour classroom sessions proved to be too long of a period for students to learn properly. No other academic subject has two hour sessions. professional DRY CLEANING ...Service and care of your clothes is our finest asset. 321 S.

March 22. 1972 The students attention span­ even 15 and 16 year olds—is not that long and students become restless and bored. This, I realize, extends the overall time period and has been criticized for biting into the summer vacation period. But if just one life is saved because someone really learned how to cope with an emergency situation—what is one week’s time? The driving instruction is going to be given throughout the classroom instruction period in order to give the student a longer time in which to absorb the complexities of the driving task. Six consecutive hour periods does not allow for this to occur. Also part of the students completed behind the wheel instruction long before the classroom instruction was over. Another part of the students could not correlate what was being taught in class because they didn’t get their behind the wheel experience until the classroom was nearly over or was completed. The only way these inadequacies can be solved is to give one hour of instruction per student per week and stretch it out over a longer period. Another improvement is to have the same instructor teach the student in the car as teaches the classroom material. This allows for the instruction to be coordinated much better than it was in the past. A new program being developed for the first time this year is a special classroom for the Type A mentally han­ dicapped students. These students had been placed in the classroom with regular students and generally did not pass We now have a teacher qualified to teach them and hopefully will give them a greater opportunity to learn the information needed to be a safe driver in today’s busy world. We also attempted to get away from an after-school program as has been operating the last four of five years This was tried for several reasons. First of all we couldn’t put the above im provements into effect because of the lack of time. Secondly, the students do not do as well in the driver education program because of the two extra hours per day spent in school. Thirdly, teachers do not want to extend their work day by two hours They still have 5 other classes to prepare for and teach. Nor would they be as effective a teacher in either the driver education program or their regular class We did find, however, that there were some serious con flicts, because people were ac­ customed to having it offered in the Spring and had not made other arrangements. So two courses were offered to take care of the more serious conflicts. Enough teachers did apply to teach on an alternate day basis to provide the program for 60 students. Students were picked for Die Spring program on the seriousness of their conflict and their age. In the future we hope to continue only offering enough courses after school to take care of the serious conflicts. Even­ tually we hope to put the program primarily into the school day. Right now the cost is prohibitive If you have any questions about our techniques or procedures, please feel free to contact me at 945-9591 I will be happy to ex­ plain our method of operation.

This program enables me to do the work I most enjoy and also gives me a headstart on my future. I am employed by Audrey Jane Blakely at Audrey Jane’s Fashion Boutique in Hastings. The store puts on many fashion shows, which gives me the op­ portunity to model. This plays a very important part in my future because modeling is the career I’d like to pursue. * In my job I meet a wide variety of people. Along with waiting on customers I also price clothing and put stock away. I have been real lucky in the fact that I’ve been on a few buying trips. The trip to Chicago was especially nice. I hope that after you have read this column I’ll see you at Audrey Jane’s. When you come in. ask for me and I’ll gladly assist in your selections. Joni James, a Hastings high school student participating tn the Co-op program at Hodges Jewelry, has chosen a diamond brooch to show a customer. Joni BY JONI JAMES As a senior and a Co-op student of Hastings High School, I am employed at Hodges Jewelry, with Mr. Patrick Hodges as my supervisor and Mrs. June Doty as my co-supervisor. I am envolved with all jobs concerned with a jewelry store except for the bookkeeping. I report to school in the mor­ ning; then I go to lunch at 11:55 a.m. I then report to my job at 1:00 p.m. ana work until 5:30 p.m. with the exception of Fridays when I work until 9:00. Saturdays I work from 9:00 a.m. Io 5:30 p.m. My first duty when I report to work, is to notify customers on their clocks, watches, and jewelry repairs. By doing this, I place a call to these customers, and. if they are not reachable by phone, 1 fill out a repair card and send it to them. Next, Mr. Hodges or Mrs. Doty gives me my list of duties. They consist of taking inventory, restocking items which have been sold, polishing silver holloware, pewter, or sterling flatware. cleaning and rearranging such items as crystal, jewelry, fine china, glassware, and unpacking and checking invoices on shipments that arrive. Sometimes I help Mrs. Doty decorate the showcase windows. She explains how to arrange jewelry, china, crystal and watches so it’s not congested but is*still appealing to the window­ shoppers eye. Also what items to put on display for certain holidays and seasons. Another one of my duties is being a sales girl. This I enjoy thoroughly. By pleasing a customer and knowing I have satisfied them, pleases me and my boss. If a customer has an item they wish to purchase and we do not have it in stock, we will special order it and notify them when it has arrived. Some of the requirements that are asked of me in working is being pleasant and friendly, wanting to satisfy customers to my fullest capacity, and making sure that the store looks clean and neat at all times. My highlight of the day is taking packages, cards, and envelopes to the post office. At 5:00 p.m. I start washing counters, dumping ashtrays and vacuuming. This way the store is clean and fresh for the next day. I would like to thank Mr. Black and Mr. Hodges for allowing me to be a student on the Co-op program. I would also like to thank Mr. Hodges and Mrs. Doty for being so patient with me. It has given me an understanding of the local businessman and the satisfaction of being a service to the consumer. I have learned to be patient and helpful to people and to myself. This will surely help me in my future, no matter what kind of career I choose. j— — — — — — — — — White's Photography Distinctive Students Sell Tickets For Mexican Dinner By Jeaninc Lykins, Debbie Feighner.

In passing sentence, Judge Mikesell said he was satisfied that the odds were against Havens ever committing a similar crime, and that he realized that this was his first criminal offense. Atty. Edward J. Hackett of Battle Creek, representing Hayens. had asked for leniency, pointing out his clean past record, and his devotion to his wife and five chilcfc-en and that the crime was one of passion and jealousy. Havens pumped six shots from his .22 revolver into Conklin's body, hitting him in the base of the skull, stomach and spinal cord, right shoulder, right upper arm, right forearm and the right thumb and middle finger. Officers arrested Havens shortly after at his home. Havens Jailed, Fined, Placed On Probation Richard F Havens, 35. R5 Hastings.

Dick Feldpauschs and Tom Robinsons �Hastings Public Library Provides Popular Service Operating in its seventh year, the Hastings Public Library serves its community in many ways. Answering reference questions is one service that Hastingsites use often. They call the librarian^ Mrs. Florence Wilson, or come into the library. Some questions take lime; thus Mrs. Wilson may need several hours to collect the desired information. Other questions are answered more directly by trained librarians, so often Mrs. Wilson can help patrons immediately. In the case of students Mrs. Wilson spends extra time helping them to find sources by themselves. En­ couraging students to become self-suLUcienl in libraries is every librarian’s aim. Mrs. Wilson does not wish to “do their homework for them.” Following is a list of reference questions which were asked at HPL in recents months. 1) Consumer Reports on ap­ pliances, 2) How to make a Voodoo doll, 3) Information on wills, real estate, and property rights; 4) Plans for building Concord stage coach, 5) Names of Indian tribes in Michigan, 6) Translation of Merry Christmas in several languages, 7) Date of first dress pattern, 8) Deffinition and formula for random sam­ pling. In addition to its reference service, the library supplies books, 23,000 of them. This quantity of books became too much for the main-floor shelving in this past year. Rooms in the basement were renovated (painted, shelving installed, lighting improved) to house the overflow. In the fiscal year en­ ding June 30, 1971, 34,565 books were circulated. The number of registered borrowers at the library totals 4,500. Other library services include: a) Story hours held on the first Saturday of each month at 10:00 A.M. b) Elderly readers at Provincial House obtain books through a volunteer from the Friends of the Library, c) Groups, such as Bluebirds, Boy Scouts, pre-school children, visit the library and Mrs. Wilson gives them a tour and orientation, d) A film projector may be rented for group use.

Harold Cutler EDITORIAL --------------------- by R. M. C.------------------------On account of the debris left on the ground in the wake of the recent destructive ‘‘ice storm,” it is probable that the Hastings Mall would, by this time, be almost ready for operation However, many city employees have had to be diverted to clean-up operations The task of marking the parking lanes and installing meters in the Mall will have to wait its turn Although the tentative target date of by "easter,” cannot be met, the Mall will certainly be open for use in the near future. Many are questioning the decision to try the SMVdegree or pattern. If the City were out to crowd the lanes in order to get maximum meter revenue, "straight in” parking would probably be both difficult and Unpopular However, according to Mike Klovanich. Director of Public Services, the parking lanes are to have a net width of ten feet -or slightly more if add in the width of the painted lines Lanes of this width will give easy access whether one is driving in or backing out This width, also provides plenty of space for opening doors without danger of slamming into the side of a car parked in the adjacent lane. As mentioned before, one big advantage of the 90-degree parking pattern is that it allows a driver to turn into a vacant space on either side of the street, i State Street will no longer be a through thoroughfar after the Mall is in operation The two blocks between Church Street and Michigan Avenue will become a “front door” parking lot for the service and convenience of people whU use Main Street as their shopping center That is as it should be-a development that Hastings has needed for many years fr. after the new Mall is in operation, drivers are anywhere near as cautious and considerate as they were during the trial run in December, the project is certain to be a big success Mention of the "ice storm" brings to mind once again the tei*rific work done by the Consumer Power and Bell Telephone repair crews One must keep in mind that unpredictable destruction of this sort is a disaster not only for the consumers but for the utility companies as well who are suddenly faced with unexpected losses running into several million dollars While bringing outside repair crews into the hard hit areas, these public service organizations must also keep in mind the need to be in a position to give emergency repair service to other sections"of the state as well Mother nature has an erratic way of hitting back at us earthlings* On Oct. 31. 1971. Mrs Evelyn Ogden resigned from The Barry County Social Services Board, on account of the fact that she was in Florida about six months out of the year Following her resignation two former supervisors. Bob Lyons of Prairieville and Dick Dean of Algonquin lake, and two local physicians. Dr Douglas Castleman and Dr Charles Morrill, sought this oppointment Yet. since the resignation of Mrs Ogden, no new appointment has been made and the Board has been operating one member short. Now. we un­ derstand. Mrs Ogden has reapplied for the job -and can probably have it back, if she really wants it. for the following reasons: R. Bernard Houston, Slate Social Service Director, is inclined to feel, so we understand, Mr. Lyons has a daughter who serves as supervisor in the local office and so should not be considered; Mr. Dean is con­ sidered a political nominee; he feels that the doctors might be too busy to attend meetings. All this, iocaly, has created an aura of confusion. Why, with four reputable candidates has no action been taken •* after these many months? And why is the vacancy now to be filled by an individual who resigned nearly five months ago because she was away from here for about six months of the year and so was unable to devote sufficient time to the job9 If Mr Houston had taken the time to investigate, he would have found that both of the doctors in question have given time for public service and discharge such duties in a responsible manner-at least the doctors, or any of the four, for that matter, would be here, available for duty considerably more than six months out of the year All of which prompts one to ask. what goes on here anyway? Michigan's Department of Natural Resources should, we believe, get full co-operation from Barry County in its request for support in declaring the Thomappie river a “Scenic Country River " In fact, our lovely little Thomappie is one of three rivers in Michigan which the Department is considering in its long range plans to preserve streams and riven in their natural state-or as near to that state as is now possible. There was a time around the turn of the centurv when the Thor nappie was a clear water stream that literally teemed with smallmouth bass Fishermen came here from far and wide to try their luck and seldom, if ever, went away without a full creel It was not the fishermen who changed this situation, but rather pollution from raw sewage, slaughter houses and industrial wastes Clean up of the river is now progressing and there is reason to hope, that once again the Thornapplecan at least approach its former clear water state. In addition to its natural scenic beauty, the Thomappie River is also an excellent canoe course from Thomappie lake right through until it joins the Grand River at Ada In fact, our little river is one of the most scenic canoe routes in the state, sporty enough in spots to be interesting and yet not too difficult for novices to navigate in safety Even with full support from the County, the necessary steps to get the "Scenic Country River” program underway will take time (public hearings, zoning, etc.,). However, the project, in the long run, will be very much worthwhile, for Barry County and the entire and also for all the conservation-minded people, of whom there are many, who enjoy the experience of an outing in a bit of Michigan "as it used to be.’.. The chances of preserving bits of scenic Michigan grow less and lees with every passing year. Therefore, we believe that this county should give the Department of Natural Resources full support in the effort to preserve the Thomappie as a "Scenic Country River" To the Editor: We picked up the Battle Creek Enq News last Saturday and was surprised and very irritated to read Mr Ken Radant's article about Consumers Power Co. It seems to me he is an ungrateful person not to realize what these men went through both physically and mentally. It whs inhuman the hours most of them kept To give a "special” time the question we’d expect our 7 year old daughter to ask. not an adult, <next time he’ll probably want the Company to give him'a time when the electricty will be gang "off”) I think we should all be very thankful for the quick sen ice we did get, and to prove it, when you see a Consumers truck, wave, as a THANK YOU to them Mr & Mrs. Les Forman Woodland.

Voice—i -------- OF THE PEOPLE —’ To the Editor: This letter is written to commend the Consumers Power men who did such a good job of restoring elec­ tricity during the ice storm /Many farmers had much to lose but I have not heard one complaint although several had no way to cool milk and had to dump it. We were probably more fortunate than some as our electricity was off from about 4:30p.m. until 12 o'clock p.m. on Monday and a couple of hours on Tuesday and we had to go back to lighting the house with an old kerosene lantern. Those who would complain should stop and think how they woulo like to climb icy poles and dig for lines on the ground. covered with ice, one job very feu of them would relish. The danger to their lives was also very real To those who would gripe l»ec^use the men were not there right when they figured they would be, calm down, the weather man has trouble forecasting the weather from one day until the next, especially in March and this prolonged ice storm was not forecast at all. Thank you. Consumers Power Company workers Your job was huge and I think you did an admirable job and we thought of you often out in the worst ice storm 1 ever saw in my life.

Sincerely yours, Arthur and Grace Lathrop To the Editor . I was very disgusted to hear on WBCH radio what Mr. Radant said about Consumers Power Co. I think he was way out of line and everyone I talk with feels the same and I am sure he has hurt himself more then he has helped himself Both Consumers Power and Bell Telephone men did a wonderful job for us during our recent sleet storm and I want to thank them very much.

From the lesson they learned I think they have taken a leaf from Hitler s Mein Kampf. Quote ‘‘The receptivity of the great masses is very limited. Their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these slogans until the last number of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan " This is exactly what we have. There is no check on a state property tax, no check on new taxes for building. All we get is an income tax greater than the savings on property lax. The educational bureaucracy is at the helm. Very little is being done to teach the 95 percent of the To the Editor: Current property tax assessment practices are as phoney as a three dollar bill. According to the information published in your paper there is as much as 30 and 40 percent difference in the figures of the Supervisors in each and everyone of the 16 Townships and the figures of Milton Buehler of the equalization dept, as to the true cash value of the taxpayers properties and homes. Most of these men were educated in assessment schools with lax supported money and took the same lest. Then why is there such a great error in their assesment figures9 One must conclude someone is not doing their job. If it is the Supervisors errors they should be taken to task at the annual meeting on April 1 and voted out in November. If it is the error and fault of Milton Buehler of the equalization dept who is employed by the county comissioners and which puts the responsibility also on their shoulders they are not doing their job in representing ail the taxpayers in 16 townships by not fireing those responsible for these costly errors Sincerely lx*w Godfrey To the Editor: I have a story to relate to the public about these young men who wear their hair long. Too many adults judge these young people in an adverse manner because of the length of their hair. Some parents teach their children to call them "Hippies” due to this fact. It is a grievous situation. Due to the devastating ice storm we experienced the night of 13 March ’72, our particular street was one of the worst hit. Tree limbs of assorted sizes lay on homes, in yards, over the walks and across the pavement. As I was viewing the vast and continued damage from my front window I saw what appeared to be a small truck two blocks down the street with three people walking in front of the headlights time after time. It inched its way forward. As It stopped in front of the house next door I saw* three young men with long hair. They were clearing the street of tree limba making it possible for cars to traverse this street which was previously impassable. I opened my front door and called, "Thank you." Even though no recognition was given to my words the three long hair young people continued to remove the light and heavy tree limba as they made it possible for others to drive with more safety. Who else took the time plus made the effort to dear the way for others? Not even their slightly older elders. I feel we owe them our wholehearted gratitude and, some, an apology.

IW* Barry Social Services Lived Within Budget The Barry County Department of Social Services lived well within its budget last year, spending only $72,635 of the $87,000 alloted by the Barry County Commission for 1971. This was one of the facts about the Social .Services operation which came out in the 1971 annual report recently submitted to the Com mission bv the Bafry County Social Services Board Chairman, Mrs Marie Hein and Director Beatrice M. Fisher The report indicates that the 1971 net cost to the county of $72,635 was less than in 1970, when it was $79,360. Mrs. Fisher, (ftrector of the Barry County Department of Social Services, explains that most of the cost of the program operated by the department is paid by Federal and State funds. Among the changes faking place and new programs added during 1971, the report cited (1) Approval by the Social Services Board of a State grant providing legal services to clients in locating missing fathers and enforcing child support judgements. Child support payments are deducted from the amount of public assistance grants. (2) Employment of four former public assistance recipients at the Social Services office under a new Public Services Careers Program established by the Michigan Department of Social Services. Barry County was the first county to take advantage of hiring employees from the Aid to Dependent Children caseload, which has been successful in this county. (3) Separation of the Social Senices work force into two units, one concerned directly with public assistance payments, and the other to handle services such as employment, child day care, foster care, licensing of foster homes, protective services for neglected or abused children, and other social work services for adults and senior citizens. (4) Board approved of “Presumptive Eligibility.** Under this program courity Department of Social Services offices can write the first check for all clients who are presumed to be eligible for assistance. This means that county funds need not be used to cover the emergency needs of clients waiting for their first check from the state. The report showed increases in the number of people served under several programs. The Aid to Dependent Children caseload increased by 126 cases from January, 1971 to December, 1971 During the same time the number of Aid to the Blind cases increased from three people to four, and the Aid to the Disabled caseload rose from 118 cases to 144 The number of Old Age Assistance recipients dropped from 242 to 234 The food stamp program,' which is administered by the Barry County Department of Social Services in cooperation with the State Department of Social Services in behalf of the United Slates Department of Agriculture, was fairly stable, averaging about 664 families per month.

Drop Interest Rate On Farm Storage Costs The U.S. Department of Agriculture has announced that the loan interest rate on the Farm Storage and Drying Equipment Loan Program Is Ixnng lowered to 46 cents per $100 or fraction thereof per month, or approximately 5'4 percent an­ nually. staled Nick Smith, chairman of the Michigan Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee. This represents a decrease from 50 cents per $100 or fraction thereof, or 6 percent annually^ l»wer borrowing cost of the Commodity Credit Corporation makes it possible to lower the interest rate to farmers. Under this program farmers can secure from their county ASCS offices loans to finance onfarm storage and drying facilities needed for grain and other commodities. Adequate onfarm storage and drying capacity enables a farmer to do a better job of utilizing his crops and lessens the possibility of his getting caught in a tran­ sportation bottleneck or in a market glut. Farmers interested in ob­ taining a Farm Storage Facility loan should contact the local county ASCS' office at 301 S. Michigan. Hastings, for details of the program. In general, these loans are available for up to 85 percent of the total cost of the facilities and are repayable in four equal installments over a term of five' years.

I (Carriage Jiotitfe £102 W .State St., Hastings Kegtaurant True Pioneer Women Mrs. Edward Goodyear (Ann) had no electricity following the storm but there was not one complaint. This gallant lady, a H.H.S. Latin teacher of quite some years ago, (our daughter thought that she was the greatest) had the stamina to take the discomfort and be grateful that it wasn’t any worse. It is the spirit that counts at times like these Another valiant lady who took the storm in stride (her sons, Glen and Merle, are in the warmer climes) was Lettie Kahler. (Also long time D^ton and Hastings teacher) There was no electricity at Letties apartment, next to city hall, on S Broadway. She refused to move—she had many plants to care for—so with the oven, candles, etc. she weathered the storm. We salute both of you and all others like you! Garden Club Tike Note The Hastings Postoffice must be a perfect place, temperature-wise and otherwise, to keep plants There was daily watering too and. of course, that is also important. These comments are about the two poinsetta plants that were placed on the writing stands at lhe P.O. before Christmas. They continued to thrive and sprout new green shoots with lovely foliage. They seemed to be such courageous little flowering shrubs. The red color was fine for Valentine’s Dav so red. pearl trimmed, hearts on wires, were added to the red flower pots. The time came when Easter Lilies replaced the Christmas blossoms yet the December blooms are still flourishing in another location as hail and hearty as ever.

May have told you this, but anyway I was very proud that I was the only civilian guest of honor, and the only person under rank of Major. I got the invitiation because of my "personal interested in and assistance given the men of 5­ 42nd." Anyway the ceremony was very impressive. Strange to see a ceremony in combat gear, the only ones 1 had seen were stateside with class A uniforms, ribbons, etc. Well, the interesting thing was that in reading the history of 5-42nd. guess where it was first activated. Ft. Custer in, can’t remember, but 1 think 1916. And now it is gone from RVN to be inactivated at Ft. Lewis Wash. It was really very moving to watch the colors brought down, rolled up and covered to be returned with nothing but a color Srd to Ft. Lewis. With it went last of medium and heavy artillery in RVN.

And the cost of labor, materials, trucks and graders Is almost indentical with neighboring counties. Based on 1969 income figures, Barry County received $1,475 per mile of "primary roads6 compared with $4,420 per mile in Kalamazoo County. Calhoun County received $2,780 and Kent County by comparison a whooping $7,400 per mile. Barry County has to maintain a total of 1,093 miles, only 41 miles less than Kalamazoo County which has 1,134 miles. Calhoun has 1,434 miles and Kent has 1,720. For the maintenance of "local roads" Barry County received $438. per mile compared with Kalamazoo County's $767. Calhoun County’s $616 and Kent County's $710. per mile. The revenue is derived from weight and gasoline taxes. The Barry County Road Commission has suggested that some new formula for a more even distribution of monies is imperative. One possibility, according to the Commission, might be to return 50 per cent of the gas and weight taxes evenly to all counties with the other 50 per cent based on population. The Commission also noted that Barry County is one of the few counties in Michigan with no "State highway" leading in to a State Park. They said the Barry County Road Com­ mission has been trying to get Chief Noonday Road designated as a State high­ way. Homelife Poetry Corner $14995 and up Next clay itayed bed.

The banquet was >1A at Ihn UUC Head Varisty Basketball Coach Ernie Strong, after introducing his players, discussed various philosophies having to do with playing the game and winning. He quoted the famed Kentucky University Coach Adolph Rupp as saying: "To say that winning or losing is not more important than how you play the game is like my surgeon telling me it’s not important whether I live or die but how he makes the in­ cision." Vince Lombardi: "Winning isn’t everything, it’s the only thing." Coach Musselman of Min­ nesota: "Losing is worse than death, because you have to live with defeat." Coach Strong declared that to apply these philosopihes to all levels of play would be a serious mistake. Coach Strong quoted Sports Illustrated: “Competition-the excitement of putting yourself or your team against an opponent as good or even better than you-is the lifeblood of sport, not victory alone. Victory is better than defeat, no question about that. It is much more fun to win than to lose. But when you have done your best, when you have gone to the last second, the last out, the last inch before losing, when you have been a vita) part of a tremendously stimulating game, is the failure to win really such a terrible disgrace?” Strong added that modern basketball scoreboards lack the ability to show sportsmanship, character and dignity. "In my own mind I am sure it is possible to beat another team or in­ dividual without losing one’s dignity or disregarding sport­ smanship In the process. I am also sure that it is possible to lose a scoreboard battle and win a battle of character and dignity." Recapping the cage season. Coach Strong said he believed his boys played up to their ability. The overall record was 10 and 7, tieing for third in the West Central with a 7-5 record. Lost from that team will be five seniors: Co-Captains Doug Welton and Andy Reid, and Ted Fitzgerald, Rick Rohde and Tom Steward. Juniors receiving letters were Goof Goodyear, Jerry Kessenich, Pat Kinek and Brian Smith. Participation certificates were to Steve Bradford, Dennis Brogan and Steve McPhail. Dennis Acker and Kevin Pufpaff received statistican certificates and Mike Fischer and Don Myers earned manager letters^ Head Wrestling Coach Larry Melendy gave his 1971-72 squad high praise for a determmed effort, coming through with three dual wins against nine losses on a schedule that included many of the top wrestlers in the State. The Saxon grapplers had a 2-4 league record, tieing for third. Senior letterman included Tom Allen, 17-5-1; Ed Hurley. 12-9-1; Dale Traister, 14-6, and Mark Pittelkow, 18-7. Junior letterman included Brent Hoffman, Greg Reaser and Greg Ziegler. Terry Traister was the lone sophomore lettering and Jace George the only freshman. Jace wrestles at 98 pounds-and is just now getting to weigh 90 pounds! Coach Melendy hopes Reaser will either gain a lot of weight, or drop below 185. The strong grappler generally has been wrestling men much heavier than he in the heavyweight class. Boys earning wrestling par­ ticipation awards included Jeff Bishop. Ken Carpenter, Randy Lydy, Frank Mix and Joel Rogers. Junior Varsity Wrestling Coach Ron Miller was en­ thusiastic in reviewing the work of his youngsters who won their final five matches. "You’re going to see more ag0*essive wrestling in the next two or three years than you have, and you could out of Hastings Miller predicted. He also urged more support from parents and sports fans. When you are out there on the mat, you have no one else to fall back on, or plug up the hole."Wrestling’s a fantastic sup­ port,” he added. JV wrestlers were Phil,Blough.

The misunderstanding is the number of students that will be bused to the Kent Intermediate area for services, T-K Ad­ ministrators are pointing out. The only students that will be bused are those students that need special help in special classes offered by the Kent In­ termediate District and some of the local school districts. These classes are in the Special Education area such as: classes for trie blind, deaf, physically handicapped, mentally han­ dicapped occupational high school, emotionally disturbed and the students that will attend the Kent Skill Centers. No other students will be bused to receive the services from Kent Intermediate District, officials said. “All services other than the special services as stated above will come to our schools. No regular class such as the third grade will be bused to another school, they will remain in our school as they now do. ‘‘There is no difference bet­ ween Barry Intermediate and Kent Intermediate except ad­ ditional services the T-K schools will receive and those services will come to our school district.” they concluded.

Delton High School Despite all of the high-sounding phrases used by educators to describe the present school system, the processes used to instruct people are not what they are cracked up to be. Any system which requires its participants to learn several different subjects and then sends them out into a world where they will not use half of what they learned must be a little screwy. There are two main gripes which I am making. Qne is concerning' the unnecessary knowledge that the individual students are having shoved down their collective throats. All through high school and onto college, a person is told that he must meet certain requirements to graduate and, should he fail to meet these standards, he does not qualify for what other people think he should know I'm talking about the way a person is made to take a year of mathematics, two years of social studies, a year of physical education, etc., when he may not be interested in such things Whyshould a person who wants to go into, say, leaching mathematics, be forced to know the principle exports of Peru? Why must he write essays on such subjects as the morality of Shakesphere, or play dodgeball? He doesn't want to know the population of Siam in 1914; all he wants to do is teach math. Yet he is forced to learn these things from the earliest years of school. What for? To make him a well-rounded individual? All that actually results are well-rounded dropouts. Yet this is the way it is done because this is the way it has always been done. The other thing which is dragging down the educational processes is, surprisingly enough, the teachers. I don’t mean all teachers, I’m talking about those who try to force the material into the students’ minds. These are the kind who roar through a textbook like it was on fire, paying little at­ tention to the students, but ex­ pecting them to absorb the in­ formation on their own. How can a person expect to pass a test when he does not even understand what the texiZ is about? It is easy to stand in front of a class and talk about something you have spent five or six years of your life learning. TK Symphonic Band Wins First Division By Debbie Thornapple Kellogg's two bands performed at the District Festival Sat., March 11. at Calvin Christian high school in Grand Rapids The Symphonic Band received two first divisions and one second division for their concert performance of "Golden Fate March". "A Festival Prelude" and "Au Pays Lemin". These were the same selections they performed for the high school on Friday. They received a first division for sight reading, which is the plaving of music the band tad never before seen, Thus the four grades received averaged a I division. ★ Homemade Sausage ★ Maple Syrup ★ Coffee And Milk • ... Bowling Wirrenga Professor Norman Dietz, director, of bands at Central Michigan University, com­ mented on the band's maturity, their sonority of lone and the excellence of instruction they had received. The Symphonic band was the only one of all bands heard to receive a first division from Professor Dietz The Cadet Band also attended the festival. They received veiy encouraging comments on their performance of "Men In Gray", "Russian Choral and Overture" and "Scotch Folk Suite" Since they performed for "comments only" they did not receive a divisional rating. • Billiards but this does not mean that everyone is going to immediately grasp the problem and memorize the assignment. Only computers can do that. What we need to do. instead of stamping everyone out in the same mold, is to pay more at­ tention to the individual student. Let the person have a bigger voice in the choice of classes. Stop requiring classes that have little or no interest to the student. Concentrate on teaching people how to learn, instead of trying to pour his head full of needless information. Then we will have schools that are interesting and educational for the student. By Denise Grant Everyone is always talking about being kind and loving everyone, but does anyone know the meaning of the word? Sure, we walk around speaking love and peace, but when it comes down to living it. how many of us really try9 What are love and kindness? If someone told a lie about us, would we forgive him? Would we say we’re sorry, even when it isn’t our fault? If anyone needs a job would we take the time to help? If someone claims the credit for something we have done, could we forgive him, without trying to make him feel like a fool? Could we do without, so someone else could eat? Would we volunteer our time to help others? All of this is a beginning, just something to start with. Suppose we want to live brotherly love? That would mean complete self­ sacrifice. It would mean giving, but that is what love is all about. Could we do it, could we at least try? Complete Insurance Service Jerome Van Matre Agency Hard to Place Coverage. Hail Insurance.

He enjoys his working experience. Ry George Williams Maple Valley Co-op Student MY’NEW LIFE Being on Co-op and working at a new grocery store seem to make my senior year the best out of the four hich school years. The idea of working Co-op has always been a goal I wanted to reach in my senior year. I’m on Co-op in the afternoon and attend school in the morning. My job is in the retail grocery business. I work for Carl’s Super Market. Inc. The store was just built, so therefore I work with all new equipment. Some of the jobs that I’m responsible for deal greatly with frozen fofid, stocking and meat cutting. I hope some day to be a butcher. I'm starting to learn some of the operation and styles of cutting meat. There are other areas for which I’m responsible, like the frozen foods. I stock, order and maintain the frozen food section at Carl’s. This to me is a start in learning the fun­ damentals in retail grocery. I have duties in stacking to maintain our regular grocery section at Carl’s. Along with stocking, ordering and learning the meat cutting trade, I' have been instructed to run the cash registers and how to handle myself when working with the public. I would not be able to do all this without the help of the individuals at Carl’s. They have helped me greatly. I hope someday to be in the business and own and run my own retail grocery store. By Vicki "Good morning, Broekema Insurance,” is what you will hear me say if you call our office. My name is Vicki Weyerman and I work at the C.V. Broekema In­ surance Agency in Delton. I started working in the Co-op program in the middle of December. I work in the mor­ nings from 8:30 to noon, then I go to school./1 also work Saturday mornings until noon. My main duties are answering the telephone and greeting our customers. But I also rate in­ surance, write policies and an­ swer correspondence from other companies. Mr. Broekema and June Nichols, Mr. Broekema's private secretary, are really great people to work for. They are very helpful and understanding. If I have any problems or questions, I'm not afraid to ask them. They take time to help me understand. This Co-op program is something that every senior should participate in if they get the chance. It is really great experience. As a result of this program Mr. Broekema has offered me a full­ time job after graduation. I want to thank the Broekema Agency and the Delton school for getting me started in the working world Hi, I’m Dan Garber, a senior at Maple Valley and I’m going to tell you my experience with co­ op. 1 work at Baby Bliss, where baby clothes are made, but I’m not in that department My job is to keep the plant cleaned up. I sweep the floors, empty scrap boxes and clean the lunch room and the rest rooms. I’ve also learned valuable experience about sewing machines. I’ve learned about parts of-lhe motors and how to change cutting knives As for the people 1 work with, well they’re just great and fun to work with. It’s not the most important job around but it has been good experience.

We hope that with these few examples we have dispelled the unproved assertion "that traditional grammar is irrelevant since English Btmmar doesn't come from tin grammar." To say that Latin grammar is dead is like abandoning a parent. I am. referring to a Maple Valley article in Accent that stated categorically that since English Gammar does not come from itin grammar, some students there are studying tran­ sformational grammar, a linguistic approach to the sub­ ject. Weowe not only our grammar, but the bulk of our culture to the Romans and tMeir forefathers, the Greeks (CL, Renaissance). The English language developed directly and indirectly (Angles, Saxons. Jutes, French) from the Roman language and with it came the grammar. Parts of speech, noum, pronouns, verbs, etc., complete with cases (for usage), numbers and gender (three in both languages) come from Latin; and so do the names, verb from verbum, noun from nomem and adjective from ad and jacio. English verbs have tense, person, numbers, and voice, infinitives, participles and gerunds following the Latin pattern. Only the subjunctive mood has been largely discarded. Furthermore, Latin sentence patterns-simpie, compound, complex and compound­ complex. are still mainstay of our English speech. Add Xo that the Latin roots which aid vocabulary develop­ ment and appreciation. For example from scribo, scriptus we get scribe, scribble, describe, inscribe, subscribe, cir­ cumscribe. scrip, script, Scripto. scripture, conscription, etc. One also has a most valuable tool to For Professional Insurance Planning The Hecker Agency 227 N.

Palms were distributed and people joined in precessions in several local churches, symbolizing that event. Holy Week recalls the suf­ ferings. agony and death of Chrjst and culminates in his victory, the Resurrection on Easter Sunday. On Maundy iHolyi Thursday, traditional rites in many churches will mark the anniversary of the Lord's Supper and on Good Friday Christians will observe the Crucifixion, the death of Christ on the cross, in atonement for man'd sins. While Easter is essentially religious, it is also a time for family gatherings and happy reunions Children enjoy egg hunts and colored qggs, a custom far older than Christianity The custom of exchanging eggs, representing the new life that returns to earth every Spring, began in*ancient timer The ancient Persians often dyed eggs in the colors of Spring and gave them to their friends as gift*. It is said that the early Christians of Asia and other eastern lands also exchanged eggs at Easter. They colored the eggs red. Elaborate decoration became the rule in some eastern European lands. The Ukranians are famous for their beautifully decorated Easter eggs. In England friends often ex­ changed colored eggs, although now these usually are chocolate While family and friends gather to celebrate Easter, their thoughts will also be with members of America's armed forces in many lands, especially those still in Vietnam or prisoners-of war. Prayers, too. will be for the improvement of conditions of life here at home. Nearly all Christian churches have scheduled special Holy Week services.

James Wilson is the pastor and Saturday, and 3:00 p.m., Sunday, at the Central School Auditorium, 501 S. Broadway, Hastings. There will be no charge for admission; however, donations are accepted to help finance the Center’s work. Although Cruz credits his remarkable turn-around to an awakening of religious faith, his message to young people is not confined by spiritual bounds. He touches on the gamut of youthful issues, from pot smoking to heroin addiction to the problems of contemporary child parent relationships. To illustrate, he traces his own life’s history from the time he left Puerto Rico and joined the Mau Mau gang to the point late in his teen years when he experienced an awakening to moral concepts. Some of the most dramatic and terrifying episodes occurred during his years in Spanish Harlem. There he experienced the full spectrum of violence, some of which was later recounted in -an autobiography titled. "Rim, Baby. Run.

The more complete herd health programs include disease prevention programs for reproduction ana mastitis, vaccination programs to prevent some bacterial and viral diseases, general disease prevention, records and analysis and nutrition programming. "Veterinary service at the right time pays big dividends, but at the wrong time costs money," Dr. Morrow con­ cluded. A $20 per cow investment in a dairy herd health program, could quite possibly return $100 more per cow in the form of greater production, shorter calving intervals, reduced culling for disease and decreased calf losses, a Michigan State University veterinarian said. Dr. David Morrow noted that would mean a dairyman with 50 cows could anticipate about $5,000 more each year for a $1,000 investment in a dairy herd health program. "The average Michigan dairyman annually spends $10 to $12 per cow for veterinary care,’ Dr. Morrow said. ‘‘Dairymen on dairy herd health programs invest $15 to $25 per cow.” Studies show that economic Reading, ’Riling and Research kJW ' > Years upon yean of RESEARCH ind studies go into the develop­ ment of eny new drug.

The fifth her grocery dollars.” lot. known as Winick’s which has 36 parking spaces, will have unlimited parking. Metered parking in the downtown “mall" will cost five cents an hour, with a two-hour maximum. The parking change represents a compromise from the proposal submitted to the Council by downtown merchants through lhe Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce. The original proposal called for angle parking in the two block area, with elimination of all meters on the municipal streets. Crews must provide new holes in the sidewalks for meters, and stalls must be painted. Present meters must be converted for the two-hour limit. Four-way stop lights have been ordered for lhe Church and Jefferson intersections. Councilmen authorized con­ tinued free use of the City land fill for residents to dump the trees and limbs which were broken off during the March 13 ice storm.

Metered parking in the downtown “mall" will cost five cents an hour, with a two-hour maximum. The parking change represents a compromise from the proposal submitted to the Council by downtown merchants through the Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce. The original proposal called for angle parking in the two block area, with elimination of all meters on the municipal streets. Crews must provide new holes in the sidewalks for meters, and stalls must be painted. Present meters must be converted for the two-hour limit. Four-way stop lights have been ordered for the Church and Jefferson intersections.

Hall, president of the Hastings Aluminum Products Company, a unit of National Steel, has petitioned the Qty to rezone an area east of the present plant to within 66 feet of Hanover to provide room for expansion of manufacturing facilities. Hall said that if the company Is to expand in Hastings, “it must be adjacent to our present plant." The company has taken options on much of the property east of thd present facilities, between Green and Grand Streets. The request is for a zoning change from R-l Residential to D-l Industrial of the land In anticipation of favorable action, the firm also asks that Walnut Street from Hanover west to the plant be vacated Walnut An important message for people who prepare their own income tax returns. Mapfre you’ve been cheating these years. west of Michigan to the plant was vacated previously. President Hall also asked that Boltwood from Grand south to Bond be vacated. This street was never opened and the company owns the land on both sides. Hall asked early action as the options on the property are for a limited time. If the requests are granted. Aluminum Products would have 83,000 additional square feet of land for expansion The Council on March 27 referred the requests to the Zoning Commission. Generous With Children Barry County is to have a manpower coordinator who will also serve as administrative assistant to the Board of Com­ missioners. Funds to pay a coordinator will be provided through the Federal Emergency Employment Act, and his (or her) devoting full time to the job of processing EEA funds may bring in many more Federal dollars through U.S. programs, commissioners were tola at their last meeting. The vote for the coordinator was 7-3. Barry County now has 22 persons working under the Emergency Employment Act. Commissioners approved a resolution prohibiting the spreading of any tax millage in Barry County over and above that allocated or voted by the irresolution was the result of the recent court decision stating that governmental bodies mayhave the authority to spread unlimited millage for the payment of bonded indebtedness The board elected Russell Blakely, William Getty and Carl Brodbeck to the Zoning Com­ mission. The commissioners received a communicatiqp from the Baltimore Tdwnship Board which requested that additional money be raised as the result of the new equalization formula be transferred to the Barry Road Commission to be credited to the tdwnship where it was collected. Dog Warden Robert Un­ dermen reported he had handled 155 dogs during February, had disposed of 127, shipped 28 for M2 and shipped 11 cats for 111. Shelter fees brought in $13.

Board to Act On Water, Sewer Plan Over 85 interested citizens were present at the public hearing on the proposed Water and Sewer Plan for Barry County held in the Circuit Court Room in Hastings. Monday evening, March 27. The chairman of the Barry County Planning Commission. Merton Dangremond. called the meeting to order and gave a summary of the enabling legislation providing for the establishment of planning commissions and their duties. Mr. Dangremond gave the highlights concerning the scope of the Water and Sewer Survey recently bompleted by the engineering firm of Williams and Works. A brief summary of the findings concerning the Delton and Middleville areas were given in an effort to familiarize those present with the extent of the survey. Larry Miller from Williams and Works explained how the study was financed and the purpose of the survey. The Farmers Home Administration provided 100 percent of the funds for the development of the Water and Sewer Plan. Farmers Home Administration provides grants and loans for the construction of water supply systems and sewage disposal facilities. To become eligible for these loans and grants, an official water and sewer plan must be adopted by the Board of Com­ missioners of the County in­ volved. The adoption of the Plan makes it possible for recognized political units of government to apply for grants and loans but in no way obligates any action on the part of any such unit. It was emphasized that the local unit of government must initiate the request for assistance. Many of those present for the hearing asked questions regarding the cost associated with the construction of the GROUP INSURANCE COMPANY suggested facilities. No answer could be given to this question because detailed engineering studies are required before cost figures can be determined. The Plan enumerates potential problem areas and suggests possible solutions but no detailed studies were made in the development of the County-wide Plan. Another common question was the means to finance the con­ struction of the facilities. Financing of these facilities is borne by the users of them. The users will determine the type of facility that is to be constructed based on the recommendations of those that they retain to engineer -and design their facility and will also determine the method of financing the cost of the system. Concern was expressed that the County might use a Building Authority type of device to im­ plement the construction of needed facilities. It was the opinion of the members of the Planning Commission that this type of forcing the construction of a system against the will of the people should not and probably could not be used. One individual suggested that die Planning Commission should have developed a Land Use Plan before a Sewer and Water Plan was done. This procedure is highly desireable; however, due to a lack of funds at the County level, this course of action was not possible. The Barry Board of Commissioners has now provided the funds to begin a Land Use Plan for the County. Following the Public Hearing, the Planning Commission went into session and recommended that the Barry County Board of Commissioners adopt the Sewer and Water Plan as presented by Williams and Works.

April S. l»7l..........3 �EDITORIAL --------------------- by R. M. C.------------ -------------Some measure of confusion exists as the result of an article in a daily paper circulation in this area which stated that the two blocks on State Street between Church Street and Michigan Avenue were to be changed from parallel to ANGLE parking Technically, that statement is correct -However, the Angle is to be 90<icgrees or straight in parking Even with the wide (10 foot) parking lanes, there will be twice as many parking spaces available in each of these two blocks as are now available. This describes only part of the ad vantage, however, since with new parking pattern in operation, a motorist driving in cither direction along State Street can take ad­ vantage of vacant stalls on either side of the street. To Kick-Off’ Barry Cancer Drive Tuesday Mrs. David McKeown has been named chairman of the Barry County Unit of the American Society’s 1972 educational and fund raising crusade which lx*gins with a 'kick-off' meeting to be held at 8 p.n. Tuesday, April 11, in the Conference Room in the new medical building at Pennock Hospital. An editorial salute to the memory of Clarence G. Ritsema whose sudden death removed from this community a man whose good work was never fully realized by most of us and therefore never fully ap> predated. Clarence worked quietly and with intense sincerity and devotion and never asked or expected publicity for himself. Many, who knew him for years, were never fully aware of the extent of his personal involvement in the field of foreign missions He was a tireless crusader for the Christian ministry. Although a devoted member of the Baptist Church. Clarence had a broad sympathy and compassion for all, regardless of race, creed or color, who were troubled and in need of help and guidance. Our sincere sympathy to his family and to the Church he served so well. Pioneer 10. launched early last month is now millions of miles outward bound on its 21-month odyssey to Jupiter, the largest planet in the solar system, during which time the little, 570-pound craft will have traveled a course of approximately 600-million miles If the flight is successful and the delicate instrumentation encorporated in the probe does not malfunction during the long flight nor is damaged while passing through the asteroid belt, composed of clouds of debris ranging in size from dust particles to 480-mile-wide rocks, the craft will pass within 87.000 miles of the huge planet and in early December of 1973 will spend four days transmitting television pictures and scientific data back to earth. Then Jupiter's strong gravitational field will accelerate the craft from a speed of ap­ proximately 20,000 mph to 78.000 mph and hurl it out toward the edge of the solar system which it will take eleven to twelve more years of space travel to reach. Once there. Pioneer 10 will be on the threshhold of the real outer space, a region whose immensity is simply too great to comprehend/ and where distances are measured in terms of light years. The nearest object to be encountered in the outward journey will be the star. Alpha Centauri about four and one-third light years away. If Pioneer 10 can maintain an average speed in space of 20.000 mph. it will reach our nearest heavenly neighbor in about 145,000 years! In other words, if Pioneer 10 had been launched the year Christ was born, it would by now have completed only about 1.3 percent of the long outward voyage to the NEAREST star. All this should come as a sobering thought to those of us who speakclibly of exploring outer space Actually, despite our wonderful technology and the scientific advances achieved during this amazing 20th Century, we have about as much chance of successfully ex­ ploring outer space, even with unmanned probes, as Neanderthal man had of reaching the moon Also, it should be quite evident that in consideration of the distances involved, all of the verified U.F.O. sightings, of which there are many, have to do with natural phenomena connected with our own planetary system and not at all with "visitors from outer space " This last is fodder for science fiction-merely that and nothing more The vast reaches of outer space constitute a barrier that man. tor all his ingenuity, has not learned to breach and probably never will. In our opinion, a must book for present-day readers is "News Twisters by Edith Efron . In it. the author discusses in detail and with well-documented proof to back her statements, various methods and techniques used by the media to slant the news and "brain wash." so to speak, the public into accepting a point of view in line with that of the broadcaster or "news analyst." As one would expect, this book has been strongly attacked by the media-but aside from personal criticism of the author, her arguments have never been satisfactorily answered After reading the book, one is better prepared to recognize slanted news when it is presented and to be aware of the various techniques in use. To the Editor: In following the recent articles concerning the appointment of a Welfare Board member. I just wanted to say that the Barry County Taxpayer wants people in this capacity that will be in­ terested in staying on the Job and not taking their vacations "when they desire.” It begins to look like just another "financial" way out and I think that we have enough leeches on the taxpayers rolls on that score. Mrs. Ogden has served enough time, therefore. I think someone else should have a chance at the task. And too. we need people in jobs like this, that don't sav "yes” to every "suggestion" that is" put in front of them, we have seen enough of this too Of course, someone of us realize, that in positions like this, that if you have "any horse" sense, you can be "horsed" out of a jot) But there is one thing for certain. , when we vote, when we pay taxes, there will always be some of us. who will defend"our efforts to the last drop That power cannot be taken from us as long as we live in America. We can look at cheats and liars, or dishonest folks who manage to ge« themselves into public of­ THE HASTINGS fices. and say "measure up or out you will go " And. there will always be enough of us around to get the "job done right." And. too, there will always be enough of us around to see that the "job" is completed in proper order, even the. it may take some time in doing so. We know that the Good Book tells us all that when all is done, we must face our inner selves and live with what we have done. Sc. how we have played the game" really does count I have never heard of an honest man yet BANNER ..April S. 1972 afraid to die. I am not against the Welfare program, there will always be the needy ones, but I am against people in charge of Welfare programs who are not properly suited for this type of program My tax dollar comes hard at this point. And I along with others will be watching to see that it is used in the best manner possible. Mrs. Bonnie Strickland R3 Hastings. Michigan To the Editor: In an editorial printed in the March 22 issue of the Hastings Bander, R.M.C. condemned our Michigan Supreme Court Justices for in effect legalizing marijuana and states "our present method of selecting justices leaves much to be desired ” First I ask. what does R.M.C. propose as a better method for selecting justices9 Next, did R.M.C. ever consider the fact that perhaps marijuana should be legal. No one, to my knowledge, has ever found one fact proving marijuana to be any more dangerous than the universal-social-drug named alcohol In fact according to a chart reprinted from Resource Book for Drug Abuse Education and distributed by the Hastings school system, marijuana is much safer than alcohol Alcohol has potential for "physical dependence" Marijuana does not. Alcohol has the potential for "organic damage". Marijuana does not. "Long term symptoms" of alcohol are "cirrhosis, toxic psychosis, neurologic damage, and addiction". "Long term symptoms" of marijuana are "usually none" If R.M.C. would like more evidence in support of legalization of marijuana, may 1 suggest he write our Federal Government. Just recently even President Nixon's investigatory committee into drug abuse concluded that marijuana should be legalized. So with these facts in mind I ask R.M.C. what is wrong with making marijuana legal9 Stephen Borton A WITTERED FLAG by Norma Bailor Blair A Mood stained tattered Hag.

The Lions Club Sight Con­ servation chairman is Dick Beduhn and he may be called for any further information about this subject. Better Buys With Banner Ads I All township chairmen, volunteer workers and interested citizens are urged to attend this informative meeting. Mrs. McKeown has accepted this position because of her "deep concern about the urgent need tor cancer control and the necessity to help win the battle through widespread nuhlic education." Our theme is "We Want To Wipe Out Cancer In Your Livetime" declared Mrs. McKeown. "We will be calling on our friends and neighbors to make a generous gift to the Society as well as to bring them a life-saving message about cancer." ' Barry County's goal for the 1972 Crusade has been set at 115.500. Last year generous donors aided many county residents in their fight against cancer by contributing SI5.907. During the past year the war against cancer began to receive high national priority so let us continue to back up the scientists with a vigorous effort to get all /Vnericans to have a regular health checkup including cancer tests. The theme erf "We Want To Wipe Out Cancer In Your Lifetime” grows out of great advances that science has made in recent years in combating cancer with new drugs, and more advanced methods of surgery and radiation. Also it reflects the judgement of many eminent physicians that we may be ap­ proaching the staging area for a major assault on these dread diseases. Every dollar that is given to the American Cancer Society helps support vital programs of public education, research and patient services. Half of all monies contributed stay in the county to assist local residents by services provided by the local chapter Some of these services include informational and ref feral services; dressings, sickroom supplies and equip­ ment. transportation, medications and rehabilitation services. All services rendered to Barry County residents are preformed by the volunteers who donate their time and talents to the local Cancer Society Unit.

Hastings Boasted Fine Girls Softball Teams Quite some time ago The Banner had a picture and story about the local gals softball team coached by Al “Dyk” Dykstra. At about the same time 1943-1952 there was another active and alert softball team coached by Bill James and Greta Cogswell Andrews (Mrs. Ben) has a beautifully kept 4 scrapbook of pictures and newspaper clippings to prove it. These gals that began as the Strand Team in '44 and later became the Metal Tile Team, captured many awards including the District 5 Softball trophy. The following quote illustrates the Quality of play back in those days. “Hie Metal Tile gals sailed through the season behind the chucking of Mary Lou “Pepper" Jensen, who allowed an average of just four hits per league time." They went on to the State oumament four times in five years and returned with the cup in 1943. All of these ladies now agree that Bill James was a great coach and this team play was good and grand exercise with perciskm building athletics. Anyone interested in this sort of thing should ask Greta to see her scrapbook because it is in­ teresting and pleasant reading even to the, ' Read Banner Want Ads," and "Buy UK Savings Bonds " HCC Golfers Signing The Hastings Country Club is now signing up members for play in the Monday and Tuesday night leagues.

She will then make an appointment with either Mr. Laurence or Mr. McIntosh. Students have been asked to What is bigger than a bread­ box, has a giant reflector, and is seen mostly with Mrs. Richard? No, it’s not her son. Gary, it’s the new movable demon straUon table that the Home Economics Department recently purchased. “I’ve wanted one for so long because everyone can see when demonstrations are done,'* Mrs. Richard enthusiastically ex­ claimed. The demonstration table was purchased with school funds from the McFadden-firm. It can be used not only in the Home Economics Department for food and sewing demonstrations, but it can be used in the Biology department for disecting demonstrations. The moveable demonstration table arrived at Lakewood last week and a janitor put it together in one afternoon.

I am Jeff Hynes, an employee at the Nashville Locker Plant. There, I cut meat during my morning hours in Co-op training. Learning this skilled trade takes much training and thus is very interesting. What makes it so interesting is the thought ofknowing something no one else docs at my age. Also, there isn’t a day that goes by that I don't learn something new. Mv first experience in this type of work was simply acting as a clean-up boy after school, cleaning the equipment after a day’s work. Here 1 learned al) the equipment make-up, actually before I got to really work with it. After applying for Co4®, the state law staled I could run power equipment under super­ vision. (Normally, a minimum of 18 yrs. of age is required to operate this power equipmeril.) Co-operative training is giving me a very good opportunity to learn a highly rated skill along with earning a salary at a relatively young age. Richard Chaffee is my in­ structor and also proprietor of the Nashville Locker. He corrects me on my many mistakes which come about in learning a new trade. MV Mexican Dinner Gains $150 Profit By Debbie Felghner A Mexican Dinner was held at Maple Valley High School, Thursday, March 23. Those who attended and enjoyed the meal with entertainment, expressed interest and appreciation. Miss Laurie Kendrick, teacher, wants to thank this group of workers: Mari and Mike Prescott, Dennis Parker, Willis Baker, Jeff Briggs, Randy Sebrell, Norma Cairns, Dewie and Linda Viele, Trudy Goorhouse, Kris Kent, Candy and Debbie Wright, Deb Maurer, Brad and Brenda Benedict, Pam and Harry Hammond and Kerry Smith. Before the dinner, the above group presented Miss Kendrick with a bouquet of six long stemmed red roses and a corsage to show appreciation for her help in preparing the meal. Los Tres Amigos added greatly to the musical program with such requested songs as "La Bamba”, "Rancho Grande”, "Cuando Caliente el Sol", “Qqizas", and last but not least "La Cucaracha". These men donated their time in helping the Spanish Club with their money making project, hoping that in the future when they cut their new record, MV area will be the first to purchase them. Clearing $150, the club feels the dinner was a huge success. The editor of Accent welcomes all editorial comments from high school students in Barry County.

The one-time street fighteronce told by authorities he was destined for a life in prison-will tell how he left the gang and the ghetto to become one of the nation's best-known youth leaders. Cruz supports his nationallyacclaimed Outreach Youth Centers in five U.S. cities. The Centers provide residential counseling and treatment for youngsters trying to solve the dilemmas of inadequate home lives, gang activity, drugs, and other adolescent problems. Author of an autobiography titled ‘‘Run, Babv, Run." Cruz also has made numerous television appearances. By the time Cruz was 18 he had committed nearly every con­ ceivable crime, and was told by a psychologist: "You’re doomed. Unless you change, you’re on a one-way street to jail, the electric chair, and-hell!" It was shortly thereafter that Cruz experienced Christian salvation. ZION LUTHERAN CHURCH velte Rd Woodland.

' THE HASTINGS BANNERApril 12. 1972 �Editorial EDITORIAL ------------------- :------by FL M. C.-----------------------------Until our “Soring" weather settles down into more of a typical Spring routine, the exact date for completion of the State Street Parkirqi Mall remains somewhat of a question mark. Parking meters arc being removed from the off-street city parking lots and as many of these as are needed will be placed along State Street. However, the work of marking the parking stalls will have to await a break in the weather So, a little extra patience is in order. The city was faced with a massive clean up job in the wake of the ice storm and work here had to have precidence over the Mall' But. within a few weeks, the Mall should be in operation and. in our opinion, it will be a progressive step from which all of us will benefit Apparently the only one to gain as a result of the ill-advised baseball strike will be Marvin Miller, the lawyer-manager who maneuvered the players into a position from which there was no face­ saving retreat Headlines in the national media such as Marvin is getting at the expense of the players and management, is valuable publicity for an individual in the legal profession-and, of course, his pay goes right on regardless of how much the players and management lose. It is entirely possible that the strike can have a devastating effect on the quality of baseball during the current season no matter how soon the strike is settled. It will be a problem to get the hundreds of scattered players back into their respective ball parks and take a little time to continue with the conditioning programs interrupted toward the end of the regular training season Ulen, too, there is a question of how much team spirit will be left as a result of this bitter experience and also the degree of co-operation that will be evident between the players and their respective managements Actually, an ill-advised strike of this sort is not merely a strike against management but a strike against thousands of loyal fans, as well ’ Personally, the outcome of the impasse will not affect us We are not an avid fan. even though we do like to see the Tigers win. But there is a pa gentry about baseball that has become a fixture in the America! News of the play in the various leagues and the feats of individual players does present an enjoyable and exciting interlude that comes as a relief to the never-ending “tales of woe" fed to us in constant stream by the media news commentators. > Baseball constitutes a colorful facet in our national scene and we would all be the losers if anything really severe happens as a result of a “bone-headed" action instigated by a clever attorney who was well aware of the value of the personal publicity eminating from the strike to his own legal career To those of us who have memories of the World War II era. Gabriel Heatter u’as not lust a newscaster, he was THE newscaster who kept millions of people across the nation listening to their radios (TV was then merely a scientific toy) for latest developments on the international and domestic scenes. His deep baritone voice brought such diverse things as the Landon blitz and the Pacific jungles into American living rooms During World War 11, things were in much more of a turmoil than they are today. Yet. no matter how dark the situation, his broadcasts invariablv began with a reassuring “Ah. ves. there’s good news tonight," that bucked the morale of listners and paved the way for a better mood in which to receive the more unpleasant realities such as lost battles, shipping destruction by U-boats and death counts Heatter was not trying to deceive. He was probably as reliable and conscientious a news editor as any on the scene today But as he recently said: “Bad news was so overwhelming then that 1 felt someone had to combat it. So. I would search the news dispatches for just one gleam of hope ." How much the Heatter technique differs from the present media philosophy of emphasizing, the violent, the destructive and the bad, can be gleaned from the reply he made two years ago when asked if there was good news left in the ever changing world of the 60’s “If I could say there was good new's during the darkest days of World War II." he replied, “I can sure find good news in the exciting events of the 60's-and I am convinced that the world will find good and cheering news in the 70's." We wish that more of the Heatter philosophy of newscasting could find its way into the current media So. all of us who remember this remarkable individual from the days of World War II salute his memory and the role he played in bolstering the morale of a nation that suddenly found itself involved in a war that strained material and manpower resources to the ut­ most As a result of the Wisconsin primary. Mayor John Lindsay, who trailed the field with only seven per cent of the vote, can now return to New York and help solve, if he can, the numerous problems that have evolved from years of mismanagement in that giant metropolis. Lindsay proved to be no more attractive to the Democrats than he did to the Republicans Turncoats who turn for the mere purpose of seeking a higher rung on the political ladder have never proven to be popular on the American scene. Our sympathy is with the Pontiac father who risked court action rather than permit his daughter to be bused crosstown into a school area that he (and a Pontiac police captain) considered unsafe. Carl E. Merchant was entirely right when ne said: "I have the right of a parent to look out for my child's safety ." Merchant s action was not based on racial prejudice. The fact that he has permitted five of his six children to integrated schools in safe areas testifies to that. His oldest daughter, however, was to be transported to a school in the center of an area that Police Captain Nye termed “an unsafe area " Because of high crime in the area he said that police patrols there are never less that two men Asked if he would let a white, 13year-old girl walk alone down streets in the area (Jefferson school) he answered “no " All this indicates that busing alone is not a satisfactory answer to integrMioo and that more harm than good can result from busing procedures forced on communities by Federal Judges who take over ine rights ot individuals ana cvmrhuniues io emorce court made* decrees—assuming legislative and executive functions in addition to their own judicial authority If Federal judges, obviously inpressed by their own authority, persist in this lack of restraint, a constitutional amendment defining more clearly the limits of judicial authority will be the only answer.

Pontiac cars. GMC trucks, Firestone tires, Goodwill used cars. Since 1935 Specials on Firestone The grading system used in almost all public schools is a corrupt way of grading and evaluating students. The system I am talking about is the grading system which uses A-superior, B-above average, C average. D-below average, and E-failing. In the first place, I feel that a school or schools has no rigtit to grade one pupil on the basis of what another pupil can do. This system treats pupils as if they must take in and learn so much or be lost and be failuoes. I know from personal ex­ perience how degrading a low grade can be to a person who has really tried. In ninth grade I took Algebra but I could never un­ derstand the principles of it. No matter how much extra help I received. I could not raise my grade. By the end of the school year I was taking two Algebra classes and staying after nights for extra help. As you can see I really tried, but in this day and age of mechanization, trying doesn’t achieve any recognition, just the end results. It is my opinion that schools should mark students on the amount of effort they put forth in class and how hard they trv to improve, rather than the grading .„y system presently used The very i/Vsn nf ___ ...J__ _____ idea of marking a student on a scale where he must do as well as someone else is in my opinion against the very principles of the constitution.

By Chris Westphal Thornapple Kellogg High School Many of the men who fought and died for our country, are fighting not because they want to, but because they have to. These men are in the Service because of a thing called the Selective Service. The men who are serving because the S.S. came to be in the Service through a lottery drawn the year before. At the present time there are approximately six different ways to avoid being drafted into tne Army. 1) Be registered 4-F. This means you have or have had something physically or mentally wrong with you. 2) Be classified as a CO or conscientious objector by reason of your religious beliefs 3) Renounce your citizenship in the U.S. and reside elsewhere out of the country (eg.. Canada). 4) If you draw a high draft number likely, as not. you will not be called up. 5) In the event you do have a low draft number and know you will be drafted, you can always enlist in the service of your choice. 6) You can become a draft dodger This means that when you have received your letter from Uncle Sam to go into the Army, you take off to another country. But you will be classified a criminal, and subject to 10 years hard labor Is it worth destroying your future by staying out of the Service? Your chances of getting a job will be practically nil. When prospective employers ask about your military service and you have to tell them you are a draft dodger or a C.O., they will not hire you. nine times out of ten.

The girls, Arlene Hayward and Chris Glenn, are working hard and have hopes of becoming members of the tennis team, if not this year, then next.

This organization has a book of requirements and rules, one of Bike Safety Forces Caution To Drivers By Rick Schultz It's Springtime once again, and with spring, outdoor recreation is coming to a peak! One of these more popular is motorcycling. Drivers please look out for those two-wheeled vehicles, and remember that they have all the rights of a car or truck on the road. Bike Riders: Remember that you must drive as if you were not even there. You are invisible in the eyes of the driver; his eyes are condition to react only to another car or truck. You must drive as if vou are driving all those other cars around you. Drive close to the center lane so if somebody is tailgating you and the car ahead of you stops sud­ denly. you can swerve out and away saving your hide. Remember, the guy behind you. can’t see you. Well, I hope this warning serves its purpose so everybody can have a fun time in the sun­ shine! Farmer s State Bank which states that girls can not participate in a scholastic sport with boys. Though this is not a law many schools are obligated to follow it because of the penalty they can receive if they don't. A school disregarding this rule can have sanctions applied against it and therefore can not compete with other schools in that sport. A law is now on the agenda of the state senate which will allow a girl to compete with boys in any non-contract sport such as tennis, if no girl’s team is provided. The verdict will be announced hopefully in the next few months ahead.

I am Diane Betts and 1 work at Scott's on the afternoon Co-op program at Maple Valley. Second semester I started working at Scott's, a week before Grand Opening. From that time I have learned many different jobs associated with retail. At the present time I am working at the cash registers and find it the most interesting job in the store. Learning everything about money, checks, and charges is a very big job and dealing with ail the mistakes involved. I find it very interesting meeting the public and talking with all the people involved with the business. I have found the co-op program very beneficial to me. It has taught me many ways of business that will be very helpful after high school.

Tne type of wood and type of construction are factors in the quality of unfinished fUmiture. Both softwoods and hardwoods are used in making furniture. Softwoods, such* fas clear or knotty pine, are least expensive and can be dented and scratched easily. Painted, they offer a striking accent toother furniture. With good care, they can last for many years. The hardwoods (cherry, maple, walnut, etc.) cost more,! and have a beautiful grain which is usually given a natural rather than a painted finish. The type of wood and con­ struction you choose depends on how you will use the piece and the price you want to pay, Mrs. Kuhn says. For example: A small four- Russell E. Bachert Jr..

World Record: An 11-pound, 15ounce beauty, according to Heddon experts, was taken by a troller in bale Hollow Lake in Kentucky-Tennessee There is a good chance this mark will be topped, and soon. liabitat: Rocks or gravel are the keynotes Look for this type of shore or bottom because the smallmouth thrives here. Fish in the darker holes off rocky points, alongside undercut banks, and in rivers where the current cuts into a bank The smallmouth prefers smaller lures in the to Mr ounce site, with rapid movements. Fishing Tip: Keep in mind that the smallmouth bass has a keen eye and super-fast reflexes. Keep lures moving, especially in clear water, in order not to give him too long a look at it. Lures like sonar, sonic, and tadpolly are excellent fast-swimming smallmouth lures. Heddon researchers recommend when using surface lures, keep them moving at a steady pace with occasional stops to trigger killing strikes.

Walnut St., Hastings, was with scientists from the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute aboard the tank landing ship USS York County, now off the western South American coast on a scientific expedition. He and other York County crewmen were supporting the scientists' efforts to determine a pattern in the distribution of animal life on the South American coastal islands, and were scheduled to return to homeport at Little Creek, Va.. Jmi«t Weather Hastings* average maximum temperature during January, 1872, was 31.6 and the average minimum was 14.6 decrees, according to records maintained at the waste treatment plant.

Snow Bunny—The day before Easter wasn't anything like a Spring Day, bat kids in Hastings made the most of it. And some big kids-Brad Foltz, Jed and Randy Nelson and Jeff Wyngarden-made this huge rabbit on the lawn of the Ken Konieczny home at 1618 N. Jefferson for the pleasure of the littler kids in the neighborhood. And then Saturday night the four got up. made Easter eggs out of snow and made them exciting with food coloring. Needless to say. the youngsters were bunny­ eyed when they looked out on Sunday morning. Admiring the bunny are Melinda Konieczny, Kriwune Matthews. Melissa and Kenny Konieczny and Mike Matthews. Melissa, incidently. was our New Year's baby in 1968, winning the stork race when she was born at 12:14 p.m., on Jan. 2.-Banner photo. Some Ads For Health Benefits Are Confusing Some people may be confused by advertising which suggests that some private health in­ surance plans have an official connection with Medicare, ac­ cording to Raymond C Backus, Social Security district manager in Grand Rapids which handles Barry County. "Some advertising may suggest that a private company has access to Medicare records,” Backus said. "Some may use enevelopes similar to the en­ velopes used to send out monthly social security checks. The names of some private health insurance companies may suggest a Government connectlon." The facts are, Backus said: "Medicare records are confidential by law. Private in­ surance companies do not have access to Medicare records. Even if the company is a Medicare carrier or in­ termediary, its authorized employees are restricted in their use of the Medicate records." Medicare is Government health insurance for people 65 and over. You can get in­ formation about Medicare at any social security office. ‘‘People who have questions about private health insurance advertising that involves Medicare should call or visit any social security office,” Backus said. The Grand Rapids District Office is located at 60 North Division Avenue; the phone number is 456-2241. Friday.

I’ll admit that most “believers” (one of my pet peeve words, along with “saved”) don’t relate their faith to anything— and I don’t even know if I will succeed. But at least now Life makes sense, and it’s beautiful in that I know that whatever hap­ pens will be for the best. Suffering does exist for a specific reason—(otherwise) why did Jesus put up with all his failures and suffering and dying? And we also have to put up with such suffering to receive the ultimate truth and peace. Now maybe (there) you can find a loophole in my argument. I can see why, simply because most of this is based on faith for which no proof can ever be given. (Right?) So you’ll say, “Why little children?They haven’t been given a chance for life.” Well, would you agree that man has a free will, and that he makes the choice that determines his road in life? As a little child on earth, (he) is dependent upon his parents and their choices until he can decide for himself. So why do children suffer? Well, stop and think. Can you (really) remember any pain—can you feel it now—that you felt from a childhood injury? (I know what you're thinking, “What the heck (is she) talking about?”—but hang in, I just might make sense.) Well, as kids, we’re super-close to God and he helps protect us from that pain. And, hey, con­ sider this fact—Is pain inborn? (wrong words, but the idea) No, it is learned, developed—comes along as the child gets older and learns pain. Thus when he begins to grow in the ’entrustment’ of his parents, (Wow! a breather) and as we grow, so does the Ask Unde AARON Send your questions regarding “people problems’* (moral or spiritual subjects) to Uncle AAron, Rl Hastings. Mich. 49058. Answers from the Book of .Books Dear Uncle Aaron: Thank you for your column. Several questions have been answered that I’ve wondered for along time about. I am divorced. . .after so many years of marriage. . '.what do you do to adjust to being without? A. It’s a fact, history often repeats itself but we cannot go back and rerun our lives. We must go on from where we are. Therefore may I reccommend three steps to be taken in sequence, first things first. 1st. Get on the right side of Romans 8:28 . .we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” This means you must be a believer in Jesus Christ and submit yourself to him for alterations and then service. II Corinthians 5:17-21 This is strictly a matter of yxiur will. 11 you will, God will. John 6:37 2nd. “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness: and all these things shall be added unto you” Matthew 6:33 “But my God shall capability to feel pain. And this too is God’s influence, because it is the suffering and pain in life that make one want to (improve) things—a coptinual striving for good. And the reason there is so much suffering in the world is because too few people are striving for that peace which only comes from God. Hence suffering is necessary— but can be ended. Gerry Steward supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus” Phllippians 4:19 3rd. Then God has several courses he may provide for ypu. (a) He may give you special grace to remain single. II Corinthians 12:9 (b) He may work things out so that you may be reconciled to your husband. I Corinthians 7:11 (c) He may because of the hardness of your heart (like the Isralites of Matthew 19:6-7) and to prevent fornication (I Corinthians 7:2) give you another husband. * Stars In This Area—Western Michigan has been entertaining several of the people involved in the filming of “The Cross and the Switchblade.” which opens in Hastings May 12.

U73........... 31 �Experts Advocating Mandatory Use Of Seat Belts In Michigan A proposal to make seat belt use in Michigan mandatory for all drivers and front seat oc­ cupants highlighted the first report of the Mictygan Con­ ference on the Problem Driver and Traffic Safety, which has concluded and extensive fivemonlh study into Michigan's driver problems Secretary of Stale Richard H. Austin, who originated the conference, and Dr. Robert L. Hess, director of the University of Michigan Highway Safety Research Institute, conference .chairman, outlined results of seven of the 26 resolutions covering actions of the con­ ference Resolutions discussed by Austin and Hess covered only genera] safety recommendations and those affecting directly the administration of the Michigan Department of State Austin said that two other reports from other task forces representing law enforcement and the courts, and education and engineering, would be released later. "Reports from all five task forces were distilled into 26 resolutions,” Hess explained “These resolutions represent weeks of meetings and discussions by safety professionals, government safety­ officials, and citizens interested in traffic safety in Michigan And they cover most of the programs connected with the errant driver problem in Michigan and other related problems/’ Other resolutions released in the initial conference report include:... Establish a drinking driver file by the Department of State; License adult commercial driver schools; „ Review and strengthen the Michigan Point System and Driver Improvement Program; Standardize and improve license appeal processes. State control of driver license • examining; \ . Establish a Michigan Highway Safety Advisory Committee in place of the present State Safety­ Commission Austin described the man da lory seal belt resolution as a "proven life saver "In the province of Victoria. Australia, where the program was enacted the first of the year." Austin said, ‘'there was a dramatic reduction of 17 percent in traffic deaths and a personal injury drop of nearly 14 percent These figures Were quite significant, enough for the Conference to recon^mend strongly that legislation be enacted to make the use of seat belts for front seat occupants mandatary." The resolution did not mention mandatory use of the other type of front seat cestrkint presently on newer cars, the shoulder harness The Conference went on record asking the Secretary of State to establish a special unit of his office to gather information and maintain rec<ds in special data files on all ^Michigan drivers convicted of a drinking-driving violation * • Austin said the Department is • already proceeding in this direction "We have already begun a special interview and referral program in several parts of the state for drivers convicted of drinking-driving offenses. Such drivers who are felt to have a problem with alcohol are referred to education or treat­ ment facilities in the hope of bringing their problem under control, thereby improving their driving performance A special file as recommended by the Conference is, of course, a K necessary element in our project. "Persons with known drinking problems should not be driving when their abilities are im­ paired.for their own good ^nd the welfare of others who must share the same roads and high­ ways.” Valid studies have proven that alcohol plays a part in over 50 percent of all traffic fatalities. Michigan is the only stale with a large number of commercial driver training schools for adults which does not regulate them, another resolution stated. It recommended that the Legislature enact a law requiring licensing and regulation of all commercial driver education schools by the Department of State with standards for programs and instructors developed by the Michigan Department of Education, which has charge of driver training in high schools. Austin said he would im­ plement soon a thorough study of the traffic point system to see if tougher actions at lower levels would be beneficial. The resolution suggested the possibility of sending out the/ warning letter at a five-point level and re-examination at nine points Presently warning letters are sent out at six points and drivers are called for re-exam at 12 points. The resolution recommends the point system be made as effective as possible in terms of identifying hazardous drivers and predicting future offenses. It also suggest evaluation of the effectiveness of the various administration ac­ tions under the Driver Im­ provement Program aimed at rehabilitation. On license appeals now ad­ ministered through quasi­ judicial units called license appeal boards and by circuit courts...the Conference recommended a probe into the effectiveness of the entire system. “It is recommended that Circuit Court powers regarding restoration of suspended, revoked, or denied licenses be restricted to appeals based on an error of law or abuse or discretion,” the resolution stated If implemented, the action could dispel the present criteria used by the circuit judges which is based on the appellant's need for the use of his vehicle to earn a livelihood for himslef and his family Austin said he was hopeful of guidance and cooperation from the courts in attempting to make any changes in license appeal The Conference recommended a study by the Michigan Department of State of the entire driver licensing program Presently, the Department of State does more than 80 percent of all the driver license examining with sheriffs and local police agencies handling the remaining 20 percent Proposal to replace the Michigan State Safety Com­ mission calls for establishment of a Michigan Highway Safety Advisory Committee through the SAVE $$$ on Beautiful Mobile Homes (we sell factory to customer) Bank Financing 12x60*8:14x65: 24x52) by appointment) Del's Mobile Homes 1715 S.

J\J4The Hastings Banner Devoted to the Interests of Barry County Since 1856 Now that we have printed the story about the City Cab Service (phone 945-4312) we can write this article. (If we’d have written it sooner our hero of this main theme could have been deludged with requests and that should not be.' All of this refers to a retired gentleman, who has most of his meals at Speeds, and resides with his step-daughter and husband, Vem and Sandra Mosteller on W. State Road. He is Leonard I^ogan and he has been in this vicinity quit some years, coming here during the depression. He worked al Hastings Mfg. Co. between six and seven years then the war came and off he went in uniform. After that was over he worked at Eaton's in Battle Creek until ’44 when he then went to California returning here in '54. There were other jobs until his last one at Hastings Aluminum before he retired about 2 years ago. Here is the unusual story about this man,-he wanted to be useful and didn’t know just how this might be accomplished. (At the Mostellers he does the laundry and cleaning.) One day a frantic call came to him.-could he bring his car and take a senior citizen to a doctor. He could and did and in the doing discovered that there was no taxi available to folks in this community. This opened a whole new outlook. Here he could help and for the past many months Leonard Ixigan has been on call transporting people when necessary. He would not charge for this-it was his public service. How often do you hear about such things anymore? Leonard Logan, who cleans three nights a week at Wash King Coin Laundry, says, that the answer to retirement is keeping busy. When you go in Speeds place and notice a distinguished and immaculate patron seated at a table, introduce yourself to Leonard Logan. He has a lot of friends there and he loves to make new friends. You’ll be glad you did’ Weather’s Been ‘Irregular’ —To Say The Least Irregular Spring conditions prevent Michigan citizens from enjoying the usual warm breezes accompanying the season’s first few weeks. Forecasts held regular from March 13 to April 7 ranging from an average high of 43 degrees, and a low of 27 degrees. Tem­ peratures ending March began with a high of 63 degrees, then fell to a low of 17 degrees. Precipitation has kept roads fairly covered with rain, snow and sleet. Mid-March brought in a record-breaking ice storm, later changing to rain and snow with traces hovering daily.

The pigs were brought in from Branch. ST. Joseph and Saginaw Counties, indicating that the infectious disease could be widespread. “To prevent the disease, farmers should not allow visitota, stock trucks, stray dogs or cats on the farm during the farrowing period." said Dr. Ellis. , I here is no cure for TGE. but a also included a building lor the completion ot the Registration Notice FOR Presidential Primary Election vaccine is available for gestating sows. The vaccine, 70 percent effective, has to be injected twice: six weeks and two weeks prior lo farrowing. "The vaccine is far from perfect, but, it could be very important in subsequent farrowiqgs following an outbreak on a farm." commented Ellis. Michigan swine producers had an outbreak of TGE last year which killed nearly 100 percent of lhe pigs it infected. Fortunately, case numbers were not ex­ tremely high. TGE virus damages the in­ testinal tract, interfering with the absorption of nutrients by the baby pig. Animals experience vomiting and scouring, said Ellis, and even if they survive, they do not grow very well. Farmers should follow careful prevention measures and call a veterinarian if they suspect TGE symptoms in their swine.

Raymond Bourds Township Clerk pearance,” says Dr. Harold Davidson, Michigan State University horticulture specialist. Early Spring is the best time of year to plant hardwood trees. “Plant them while they are dormant-before the leaves have begun to grow,” Davidson says. "They can be planted later in the summer, however, if they get careful handling and aren’t allowed to wilt.” Davidson says the worst time to transplant trees is in the late spring-after leaves have begun 'kform and before they mature. ./ben planting a tree, good soil and adequate drainage are important. The hole should be at least twice as wide as the existing roots. When the hole is dug, add a layer of good soil on the bottom. If the tree is in a ball of soil, soak the ball-along with the wrapping-in a tub of water. After a few minutes the tree is ready to plant. Wrappings around the roots should be removed with care to avoid disturbing the ball of soil. After setting the roots in the hole, Davidson advises adding soil to fill two-thirds of the hole and packing it down firmly. Then fill the rest of lhe hole Build a small, circular dam of soil the same diameter as the hole. This will serve as a water reservoir. According to Davidson, trees should be watered thoroughly, using at least one pail of water, after planting ‘Watering should continue at least once a week during the growing season," he says, “unless there has been an inch of normal rainfall.” Soon after planting, a mulch of straw, peat moss, decayed leaves or other mulching material should be spread around the tree. "Two or three inches of mulch, spreading out as far as the branches extend, will keep the roots cooler, hold soil moisture during the summer and guard against frost damage in winter,” says Davidson. �followed by a cultipacker or superior results for short, press wheels. medium, and long-term stands, 2) Fertilize according to a soil reports M.B.

Michigan Bell Has Plan To Save You 85 Michigan Bell has introduced the latest in “do-it-yourself” plans which could save you $5 if you are moving By arranging with Bell in advance, you can now take the . telephone along with your fur­ niture and receive a credit for your efforts The plan is called “Snip and Take” according to Kenneth L. McKee, local Michigan Bell manager. It’s designed, he said, not only to save the customer at moving time but to help the company reduce costs as well. To take advantage of “Snip and Take," a customer merely has to advise the nearest Michigan Bell office in advance of the day of the move and the day new service should be installed, he said. "Then on moving day, the customer simply cuts the cord next to the small connecting box on the wall with a knife or pair of scissors and takes the phone with him," explained McKee. He stressed that there is ab­ solutely no danger of any elec­ trical shock when cutting the cord. "The set is given to the in­ staller when he arrives to con­ nect service at the customer’s new residence, in return, the customer is given a receipt for the set. and his account is credited for $5.” Should the move be out of the customer’s local area-such as a move from Detroit to Traverse City-or out of Michigan Bell territory, the credit is still available, he said. In those cases, the customer can take the snipped sets to the nearest Bell public office for credit. Though more than one set may be returned, the maximum credit is $5 per move, he noted. There are some sets which are not included such as standard dial and Touch-Tone wall phones However. Trimline wall set receivers can be snipped next to the wall mounting and portable phones can be unplugged and moved Prior tp the plan’s state-wide introduction, he said, it was tried successfully in several nor­ theastern Detroit suburbs. He emphasized that customers should call a Bell office if they have questions before any phones are snipped. New Alfalfa Varieties Show Promise more years require highly wilt­ resistant and winterhardy varieties Vernal, 525, WL 202, and Progress are top choices. Saranac yields as much as Vernal, but lacks the high degree of winterhardiness necessary for long-term stands. Besides using recommended high-yielding varieties. Michigan farmers can achieve high alfalfa yields by following several recommended procedures: 1) Establish good stands, preferably by band seeding M.C. Klovanich Director of Public Services When Spring weather arrives...you will be ready! Experiments in East Lansing, at MSU’s Kellogg Farm in south­ western Michigan, in northern Michigan at Lake City and in Escanaba in the Upper Peninsula show several new Flemish varieties to be superior to the “standard" North American Vernal variety for short and medium stands. Vernal, now used on 50-60 percent of Michigan alfalfa acreage, is still the best choice for long-term stands of five or more years or for pasture. Resistance to bacterial wilt and winterhardiness are the criteria for selecting highyielding varieties, explains Tesar. For short-term stands of one to two years, the high-yielding and wilt-resistant Saranac variety is the top choice, Tesar reports. Also suggested for short term stands are Apex, A-24, Dupuits, FD-100, Flandria. Glacier. PAT 300. Promor. Rancher, Thor and Warrior. For medium-term stands of three to five years use the Flemish variety Saranac as first choice with Warrior second. The North American types Iroquois, 522. 525, Progress.

M. C.-------------------------If all goes well the launch at Cape Kennedy, Apollo 16, will by the lime thia edition is delivered, be nearing the Moon preparatory to a landing on a rolling highland near the crater Descartes Althoigh this flight will be next to the last in a historic series, and from a scientific standpoint the most potentially productive, Apollo 16 has received scant attention One reason is that the interest of people in these flights has been blunted by their unvarying success Instead of a great adventure into the unknown, the Moon shots are now regarded as something rather ordinary and routine A ‘ Actually, of course, these flights are something more than glorified (and expensive!) fireworks exhibitions. As time goes by. the mass of new scientific information accumulated as a result of the Moon shots, is quite likely to overshadow the fact that, because of'the Apollo missions, man for the first time in history broke free of his terrestial bonds A full, complete and accurate story of the multi-billion dollar effort that resulted in the successful Apollo missions has not yet been told and may never be on account of the fact that scientific reporting is so difficult Where, for example, can one find a journalist capable of translating involved scientific reports into language that a layman can comprehend, retaining in the process, a high degree of scientific accuracy’ If one does, in fact, exist, we have never had the privilege of reading one of his articles Tb the layman, for example, a piece of Moon rock is a mere curiosity, interesting only because it was brought back to earth after a half million mile round trip voyage into space But to a trained scientists, these rocks, unattractive though they may be, are pages in a book, so to speak, that through new light on processes involved in the creation of our solar system. At this moment, it would be difficult to name and evaluate the new products and industries that have come into being as a result of the many technical breakthroughs that had to be made before Apollo flights were possible More new and advanced technologies were envolved during the. decade of the Moon programs than had been achieved up to that time since the turn of the century These new technologies constitute a valuable ’‘resource’’ that will eventually repay many times the cost of the original investment Despite the fact that these Apollo shots have lost much of their original glamour as a spectator sport,'' their performance is still of real value and significance If they meet with success, it is probable that Apollos 16 and 17, will add more new knowledge to science than was garnered during all of the previous flights. Another remarkable thing about the Moon shots program, aside from the training and dedication of the astronauts and the con­ tributions being made to science, is the manner in which the entire NASA team worked efficiently toward achieving their difficult (many believed impossible) goal. Few. if any. Federal projects are noted for their efficiency and productive use of funds. But NASA succeeded in a tremendously difficult assignment where others have consistently failed in ones less difficult because they made efficient use the talent available. People on NASA assignments were selected on the basis of ability and specialized knowledge and training NASA had generous working funds but these funds, alone, were not the answer The money was efficiently managed and unbelievable results were obtained far more ouickly than had been predicted. If we can get results to technically difficult and complicated as those involved in the Moon program, w4ty is it that so many Federal projects fail miserably and give us few, if any, positive valves for the huge amounts of money spent. The answer seems to be that, unlike NASA, Federal programs seldom, if ever, make any serious attempt to bring together the best available talent to function as a team in working out the solution of a complicated program Al) too often, such pro wets are entrusted to individuals who. despite political experience and at least a modicum of managerial ability, lack the specialized knowledge and training needed to evolve and put into effect meaningful programs * Despite the billion dollars or so spent in the much heralded "War (hi Poverty" initiated during the Johnson Administration, most of it went down the drain so far as practical results were concerned Very little of ever dribbled into areas where it was needed most. For example, a far-seeing leader in the Watts District in California which only a few years ago suffered from days of destructive rioting, got a job training program underway with volunteer help and mostly volunteer funds, that produced results, much more practical and effective than any backed by the billion-dollar War On Poverty program. Millions upon millions of dollars have been wasted in Federal Housing projects. This despite the fact that the United States is the most advanced nation in the world when it comes to technological know -how in almost any field one can name There is plenty of talent here in America to design low cost housing to plan efficient and at­ tractive low cost communities and to acquire the land and materials for same} at reasonable prices. The failure of these programs seems to be due to the fact that so many of them are permitted to get into the hands of •shady " real estate dealers and contractors interested in easy and ample profits rather than in giving full value for the money received. There is also plenty of specialized talent to solve what is often referret} to as "the growing welfare mess " But such talent is not being used Instead costs are constantly growing, and appears to be headed away from the original objective of helping those who CANNOT help themselves’’ . Thus NASA, in addition to its other accomplishments, has laid down a basic, practical and efficient pattern for the solution of dif ficuk problems at any level-National, state and local The baseball season has opened and, as predicted last week, the big and only winner is Marvin Miller, the legal counsel and only one not suffering a severe financial loss Individual players suffered losses totaling well over a million dollars and the managements considerably more than that in lost revenue If there were any positive gains for anyone aside from Mr Miller, that fact has not yet surfaced Clubs Combine For City Project Four Has’ings service organizations are getting together to raise funds for a community project Members of the Lions, THE HASTINGS BANNER Kiwaais.

April It. ifft r-Voice—। I---------------- OF THE PEOPLE To lhe Editor: In regards to the letter from Mr Stephen Borton I find some interesting thoughts. 1. "No one, to my knowledge, has ever found one fact proving marijuana to be more dangerous than the uni versa!-social drug named alcohol". I believe this statement to be true, however when this nation is faced with one ill should we add another’ As most anyone who is a addict of hard drugs can tell you it started with the inocent one marijuna. The one they could handle they thought. 2. "Alcohol has potential for physical dependence, marijuana does not." True for some in both cases, not true for all in either case. Case history of many drug users prove when the so called kick falls from the use of marijuana, they feel the need for something stronger. Physical dependence is there by this time. Matty people seem to feel they can expand the mind or forget their problems by use of one or both of the above. This has been a fallacy to all who believe so. May 1 suggest Mr. Borton, and all others who might feel as he stated, take time to look in The Living Bible paraphrased, Romans 12:1 & 2 "And so. Dear Brothers. I plead with you to give vour bodies to God, let them be a living sacrifice, holy-the kind He can accept. When you think of what he has done for you, is this too much to ask? Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but be a new and different person with a fresh newness in all you do and think Then you will learn from your own experience how his ways will really satisfy you." I tried this way and found it to be true, why don’t you. Carl Warren 12971 Baseline Rd Hickorv Corners. Mich. To the Editor: During the past two weeks a fashion show and a Monte Carlo Night have been sponsored in Hastings, with the proceeds going to our proposed Drop-In Center. While we are certainly grateful to those who sponsored these events, through this letter we wish to express our special Eatitude to those merchants, sinesses and institutions which provided a large array of door prizes given away at each e»ent. We recognize that our com mercial establishments are approached constantly with appeals from various sources for support in some form Par­ ticularly for that reason, we are doubly appreciative of the line support received Tnank you for helping move our center several steps closer to reality! Michael Anton, for the Hastings Drop-In Center, Inc. Dear fellow citisens: This morning I am crying. For 5 or 6 years I have been nursing a small maple tree, giving it water and painting the wounds from trimmings. It was shaping up pretty well but this morning found all of the limbs torn off and the trunk left bleeding How can big boys have fun killing our trees after they saw what an ice storm can do? I don't mind them having fun changing the "For Sale" sign or evert twisting the street sign but to destroy our trees is fun spelled backward. A Citizen Should the weather be in­ clement, the auction will be held in the Community Building at the fairgrounds. The profits are to be used to finance construction of four basketball nets at the skating rink at Tyden Park. EDITORIAL ITT CASE AND THE KICKBACKS By Paul P. CMen Many of us who work in Washington from time to time feel very strongly that we do have a clean government However, during the President Truman period we were concerned by the five percent kickbacks and "deep freezer" incidents. During the Eisenhower period, the Sherman-Adams Case and the Bobby Baker Case shocked the Nation regarding our legislative system. Today, the ITT case became the sorrow of many Republican leaders who suffer the embarassment. The mess of fraudulent FHA cases in Detroit and the Civil Rights violators in Housing Industry will put fnany people in prison. The total number of dollars government will suffer will be beyond the average taxpayers belief The common practice in certain industries of the kickbacks of commissions, overcharging of public relations fess and the political donations by individuals through syphoning off public funds, indirectly result in the increasing of the average tax­ payer’s burden. Internal Revenue Service will not permit the kickbacks and the bribery fund as business expense deduction with the sincere hope the crackdown of tax audits will re-establish today the ethical standards of big government, big business and the big union for misuse of funds at the average taxpayer's expense. Checks Damage—Nashville Police Chief Kendal Wilcox examines extensive damage at Ijikeview cemetery, where some 10 or 12 tombstones and a half dozen or more urns wer< pushed off their foundations and broken.

If this is so. then I can’t understand why it appears by the primaries we’ve had and recent polls that the present Ad­ ministration is still on the top. It only seems logical to me that the people of the US would want to be out of the rut they seem to be in. I can’t say that the President could have done anything differentlv--but whatever he did about the US’ problems wasn’t adequate. I suggest that we try to change the world for the better-and we have a chance as Americans to do this in May during the Primary.

Americans should not vote for a liberal just to have a change who knows what problems that could lead to? Campaign promises are always something different four years later. Americans should vote, not because a man encourages change-but their decision should be made on sound judgement, weighing all sides against each other.

Complete Insurance Service By Robin Midtier As Spring joyously comes about each year, teenagers find more time for each other and their pleasures. The only with­ drawal from these things may be parents. Do parents understand that Springtime is like a freedom song? Most parents do, with the exception of a few, but these may be the parents who wonder if the teens are really going to the movie on a Friday night, or hitting a pre-graduation party. Most of us are aware of a socalled “generation gap.’ But does it begin with a conflict with the parents? Some teens overlook the fact or that the parents were young once also. With this in mind, a bash, party, or get together could easily be worked out with the understanding of the parents, for teens, this way you’ll always be out of trouble and into a better understanding.

Morrill and Richard Fluke, hospital director, prepared the proposal for the grant and will be directly Involved with the project. Stuart Clement, chairman of the board of trustees, said that this was a fine opportunity to review and develop health care for a rural community, and once again he was pleased that the Kellogg Foundation was willing to participate. The Kellogg Foundation has long been interested In improving health services In rural areas, and their Interest in Barry County goes back to 1931. At that lime, the Foundation was one vear old and agreed to the request of citizens of Barry County for financial assistance to set up a County Health Depart­ ment with funds to permit a scope of activity beyond that of the ordinary health department. Full-time health services, with Foundation aid. were started in Barry County in 1931. In the 1950’s, the Foundation was in­ strumental in providing funds to the Barry County area for combining the position of Director of the County Health Department and Director of Pennock Hospital under one person. Later, in the 1959*8. the W. K. Kellogg Foundation provided funds to the Southwestern Michigan Hospital Council for a project involving the collection of hospital statistics and the measurement of quality of hospital care. This project was under the direction of Virgil See, M.D.. Barry County Health Depart­ ment and Pennock Hospital director. That project has now grown under the leadership of Doctor Slee into a worldwide organization and is know as the Commission on Professional and Hospital Activities and is located in Ann Arbor. Another Kellogg grant in the 1950’s helped develop the South­ western Michigan Hospital Purchasing Association, a groupbuying organization for hospitals in southwestern Michigan. That organization has grown to be the Hospital Purchasing Service of Michigan and is currently located in Hastings. So do stop in, soon. BARLOW GARDENS FLORIST 1505 S.

Last year the Thornapple bridge on River Road was replaced, a six-foot tube replaced a short span bridge on the Butler Road in Baltimore, a six-foot tfibe replaced a similar short span bridge the Bird Road in Jdhnstown. and a large culvert replaced an old wooden bridge on the Rook Road in Orangeville Township. This year’s bridge work in­ cludes replaced the Huff Road lodge over the Wonadago Creek in Assyria with large tubes, the Davenport Road bridge over Mud (Yeek in Woodland Township to be replaced with large tubes; the Irving Road bridge over the Thornapple in Irving Township to be sandblasted, painted ano to receive minor repairs These projects would reduce the bridge fund to *3.274.9*. despite |he (act that the bridge funds are used onlv for material with the townships paying the cost of installation. Ixxigstreet said the county has three large bridges over the Thornappte that are inadequate the Irving, the McKeown and the Greggs There are many small bridges throughout the county that are not capable of supporting school buses or farm machinery. "The cost of replacing these bridges is considerable, and in most in­ stances the townships arc not able to finance these projects on their own although tney would like to improve the road. We would like to be able to pay for the materials to replace these bridges from the bridge fund, with the townships paying the cost of installation." Longstreet added The 1971 construction season was a dry one. and the Hoad Commission "accomplished quite a lot of construction at a reasonable cost.” according to the annual report. More than 20 roads received improvements, and new blacktop mileage totaled 10 51 Resealing totaled 52 84 miles A total of 229 38 miles of roadsides were sprayed to hold down brush, and centerlines were painted on 102.14 miles of blacktop Snow and ice control costs were *118.032 27. up from 1970 During 1971 about 170.000 cubic yards of pit run sand and gravel was used for construction and 63.000 cubic yards of processed gravel was used New equipment purchases last year totaled *210.369.38 Delton Singers In WestemChorus Downing, Ilene Endres Lisa Flessner.

Pastor �Hastings 7th-day Adventists Aid World-Wide Relief Program Relief materials furnished last year by the Basting’s Seventhday Adventist Welfare Service (SAWS) became part of a 14.7 million world-wide relief program, a local church welfare leader revealed. Mrs. Lois Andrus brought the report to church members during the April 15th regular Saturday morning services Six? pointed out that this help was given to 36 different countries hit by natural or man-made disasters, but only after this area center met all calls of local nature. According to the world report received from SAWS in­ ternational offices in Wash. D.C., Peru received during 1971 the largest amount of assistance$1.8 million in aid in food, clothing, bedding, medical supplies and miscellaneous items. East Pakistan (not Bangladesh) received medical supplies and equipment worth $163,000 with a continuing aid program going on. Among other nations receiving substantial help were Chile, Vietnam and Korea. "It is in­ teresting to note that even this long after cessation of hostilities in Korea, the church finds it necessary to send nearly half a million dollars worth of aid. mainly clothing and medical supplies, to relieve needs in that country -a sad commentary on the depredations of war.” "A carefully coordinated ’welfare ministry* on local church levels, plus church members’ cast donations and free labor, help to make our program possible," Mrs. Andrus Currently Adventist welfare workers at their center on 502 Green St., Hastings, are sorting and processing dothing to be made available for their semi­ annual state-wide dothing drive to take place early in May. Ex­ cess clothing is processed at the center and then shipped, through the church’s welfare office at Lansing, to the East Coast Warehouse where it is stored for emergencies in any part of the world? Then it is shipped by air, boat or truck to the needy area. Persons having dothing to contribute to this welfare project can receive further information by contacting Community Ser­ vice Center, open 9-12 Tuesday’s, phone number 945-2361 or Mrs. Lois Andrus, 945-9834.

The story goes that a lady came Into a shoe store and asked for a site 5. After trying on several pairs, all of which were much too tight, she said, "1 was hoping to find something larger in the same size." This was meant to be a pun, but there is a good point to be made here. Different style shoes run larger or smaller than others in the same size. For example, a sandal, flat or casual shoe may run larger than a dress shoe in the^ same size number. One manufacturer’s shoes may differ slightly in size from another simply because they are made on different lasts. Sizes vary so in styles and brands that you should let ns measure and custom fit every pair of shoes you buy.

I do not have any trouble believing that Jesus was truly the Son of God and that His brief visit to Earth was part of a Divine plan instituted between Goa the Father, the Holy Spirit and Him before the world began to reach sinful humanity of which I am a part. I believe God put His seal of approval upon Jesus by raising Him from the dead, thereby making Christ's death effective for me in redeeming my soul and making His life effective for me in His promise "Because I live, you shall live also.” I believe in life beyond death-a beautiful life unending, without sorrow, pain or tears in a place specially prepared for those who can believe what He said and what He has promised. Until then, I believe in His promise for the present-that His "grace is sufficient” for everyday life.

This grace that is sufficient for everyday life, I find, supplies patience in trying situations, love for those who need love, understanding for those who believe differently from me. It gives meaning to life because I am a part of God’s family and His Kingdom which has been from everlasting and will know no end. All of God’s promises in His Word include me because J belong and it is precious to rbelong. This brings joy, not the kind that rides up and down with circumstances but joy,*deep and abiding, con­ sistent and steadfast. He takes my worries, fears and failures when I pray and gives me peace. He supplies comfort intimes of deep distress. The Bible tells of a new tomorrow in which I expect to have a part. Not because of anything I have done but because of what Christ has done on Calvary. This is our Blessed HopetTitus 2:13) God is no respecter of persons. His good things are for all who can and will believe. Because of Who He is and What He is, He has the right to demand that we meet His conditions. Those conditions are that man repent and believe, and His promise is that "Whosoever will may conie.” *fhe gaseous element helium was detected on the sun by early solar scientists before it was discovered on earth.

IVotec ting the Dam—Sand bags filled by willing workers were placed on top of the earthen dam which stretches for about a block and a half along the south­ westerly edge of Algonquin Lake to prevent water from con­ tinually spilling over the em­ bankment. and possibly washing out the dam which impounds the lake. Monday morning. April 24, Paul Richard Dean, an active member of the Algonquin Ijike Association, said “I think we’re all right now. We’re holding our own and {hings appear stabilised. We’ve got just about a normal flow of water out of Carter Lake, connected by a short outlet to Algonquin." Lake Residents became con­ cerned Wednesday, April 19. and by Friday volunteers and others used up six truckloads of sand filling bags to increase the height Mrs. Clifford Dolan and the David Goodyears returned mid­ week after visiting in the great Southwest for several months of the dam to prevent spillage. Don Montgomery, president of the Algonquin Lake Association, estimated that the lake level was about 10 inches above normal which, with easterly winds gusting up to 30 miles an hour, threatened the entire chain of five lakes should the dam be washed away. Hastings Mfg. furnished bags, as did Eugene Haywood, whose property is not far from Algonquin and alongside the outlet. Haywood also was among the workers. Dean said a periodic check of the lake level was still being made Monday, and probably would be for a few more days. The flow from Carter Lake, which had been dammed up about M percent, was back to about normal Monday morning. Dean said "We probably could even take a pretty good east wind now.’’—Banner photo.

T-K had an equalized valuation of $25,490,780. The additional request, along with the present con­ tinuous half-mill tax, from Hastings and Delton would bring in an estimated $120,000 to operate during 1972-73. The Barry special education program includes three speech therapy teachers, one school diagnostician, one teacher of the homebound, the school for trainable children (old Chidester) which has one teacher and a teacher’s aide, and it also supports six classrooms for special training, including four in Hastings and two at Delton. Dr. Lawrence Schlack, who heads Barry’s special in­ termediate program, said plans are to expand it to assist more youngsters. Hastings Supt. of Schools Richard J. Guenther, at Tuesday’s board session, said a pattern of reorganization of intermediate districts in unfolding and that Hastings annexation to either Calhoun or to another district is probably a matter of time. Many districts, he pointed out, are voting to annex so that they can go where they feel they should,, rather than wait for the State to ar­ bitrarily put them in another district. , “Our days are numbered.” Should Hastings and Delton annex to another district, the specially voted taxes for the Barry program would be void, but the local districts would assume the tax levies of their new intermediate districts. With tax reform for education under discussion, it is possible that there may be a uniform State-wide tax for special education and that millage levies may not. be an issue when annexation action becomes a reality. Hastings board approved purchase of four new school □uses from Renner Ford at $10,562 each and four from Larke Buick-Chevrolet at $10,610 each. The total pur­ chase price is $84,688 less $4,200 tradein. It will be financed through the City Bank at five percent interest.

C.--------------------------------------- The State Street Mall is expected to be open for business in about a month. Necessary new lighting equipment for the stop signs should be here within two weeks. Arrangements have been made with the painters for marking the parking stalls Additional parking meters removed from the off-street parking lots are ready to be installed in new locations along State Street. When completed, we believe it will prove to be a practical and useful addition to the business district facilities. Both the Ctty Council and the merchants are to be congratulated for composing differences and coming up with a satisfactory compromise plan. A Michigan’s Presidential Primary Election on Md»' 16 will soon be here. All qualified electors should take the small ti nW inquired to cast a ballot There is nothing fundamentally different between thte primary and the usual state primaries with which most of us are familiar. There will be three parties listed The Democratic Party, the Republican Party; The American Independent Party. Your vote for the presidential candidates and the delegates to the County Con­ vention. must be confined to one party. Split tickets will be disqualified On voting machines a "split" is not possible; on a paper ballot, it would be possible to mark in a split but in so doing the ballo' would be thrown out. The Primary ballot is actually divided into two sections. First is the vote for the Presidential candidate You can vote for any one of the candidates listed under the party you select or you can put your cross in the square marked “uncommitted." All this means is that you prefer the Michigan delegates to the National Convention shall not be committed in advance to any of the candidates named. As things now stand, this “uncommitted’’ vote will be of greater significance at the Democratic National Convention where a number of presidential candidates will be seeking the nomination than it will be at the Republican National Convention where Richard M Nixon will be running for reelection Underneath the portion of the ballot listing the presidential can­ didates. each party will list the names of those seeking election as delegates to the County Convention. The delegates so listed can in­ dicate the name of the presidential candidate to whom they are pieaged or can list themselves as "uncommitted.” A word of explanation is in order here The term "uncommitted" as used on the ballot does not indicate an "anti" attitude toward any of, the listed presidential candidates but merely indicates that the delegate in question prefers to attend the county convention as a free agegt. This is in line with past practices here where neither party has ever adopted the unit rule and where delegates to the state con­ ventions have usually gone uninstructed. Those selected as delegates to the County Convention will meet and elect the alloted number of delegates to the State Convention where, in turn, delegates to the National Convention will be named. It is the nationpl delegates, of course, who will name the presidential can­ didates for their respective parties Delegates to the National Conventions are expected to reflect the popular vote of their respective parties throughout the state.’The balance is expected to be made through the medium of "delegates at largq." In the case of the Republican party, this will be comparatively simple, since a majority are expected to favor Mr. Nixon. However, if the popular vote by Republicans throughout the state gave Nixon 86 percent of the total with 6 percent going to McCloskey and 8 percent uncommitted, this would mean that 41 of Michigans 48 delegates to the National Convention (two from each congressional district plus 10 at large named at the state convention) would be committed to Nixon; three to McCloskey and four, uncommitted The Democratic party, with several candidates in the running, will be faced with a more difficult problem. However, they will have 99 regular delegates to their national convention plus 33 delegates-atlarge named by the state convention or a total 132 from which to at­ tain a balance reflecting the popular vote for the Democratic slate in Michigan. Although the law prescribes no penalties for violation of its proportional representation proposals, it is probable that the wish to avoid adverse public reaction will be sufficient to discourage parties from attempting to flout a clearly defined intent In voting for delegates to the county convention it is not necessary to confine yourself to those who have Indicated a preference that coincides with your own. It is the result of the popular vote throughout the state for each party that will guide the action of the state delegates in selecting the delegates to the National convention and it is this same popular vote that will dictate the action to be taken at the National convention "Uncommitted” delegates to the national conventions are free to vote for any of the candidates seeking nomination for the presidential office at their respective national conventions. Committed delegates must stay with their candidates through the first two ballots, unless released sooner by their candidate After that, if the convention needs more than two ballots to select a candidate, a committed delegates, will be free agents and at liberty to vote according to their own best judgments The important thing to keep in mind when voting at the Presidential Primary is that your on the presidential part of the ballot-whether it be for a specific candidate or "uncommitted"-will be the deter­ mining factor in the make-up of your party delegation to the National Convention. The' delegates to the County and State Conventions, no matter what their personal preferences may be, will, under the law, be charged with the duty of assembling a delegation to the National Convention that will reflect the result of the popular vote of their respective parties throughout the state. There is no dearth of "side-line generals" offering advice on how to end the war in Vietnam One individual, however, and one only must bear full responsibility for the consequences of any action taken- The President of the United Slates His first concern has to be the safety of the men sent there at the order of their government Nor can he forget the responsibility of this nation for the fate of the prisoners of war being held by Hanoi. University of Michigan President Robben Fleming, so we read, has criticized President Nixon’s decision to resume bombing operations in Vietnam as cause for "profound sorrow and discouragement " It is an unfortunate turn of events that made the resumption of bombing operations seem necessary However, isn't it also a cause for "profound sorrow and discouragement " that Hanoi saw fit to resume a massive offensive 4 THE HASTINGS BANNER......... April 29. 1972 operation at a time when the United States was withdrawing ground forces at a rapid rate, reducing the number there from half a million to but a few thousand with more scheduled for return in the months immediatly ahead? Isn’t it also a cause for "profound sorrow and discouragement that Russia, on the eve of an important conference with the United States, should have provided Hanoi with military muscle to support a major offensive drive? It is also, we agree, a cause for "profound sorrow and discouragement" that many civilians in North Vietnam will probably be killed and wounded as a result air attacks directed at military installations. „ . It is also a cause for "profound sorrow and discouragement that so many South Vietnamese civilians have and are being killed by the rocket, mort.. -nd gun fire of the Hanoi invaders; that thousands of others have been forced to leave their homes and flee southward to escape what might be their lot at the hand of the invaders. These South Vietnamese people are also human beings, even though they do not wish to live under commisiist rule and are beginning to get the first taste of self government. And, for that matter, it is also a cause for "profound sorrow and discouragement" that student riots flare up with so little provocation on campuses across the nation, leaving in their wake dissngition of classes, and damage to property that does not belong to them. These, indeed, are times when there is cause for "profound sorrow and discouragement" over many actions on many fronts of the current world scene. But let’s not always point the accusing finger To the Editor: There is an old saying that you don't appreciate the things you’ve had till you have to do without them. And so it is with us. Every workday morning for a long time now, we have been driving on M-37 past the Baltimore Terrace Mobile Home Village and never failed to notice the American flag flying. Then came the ice storm and ripped it to shreds so it ap­ parently had to be taken down. And we really missed it Then lo and behold, the other morning we were driving past just as the radio station was playing The Star Spangled Banner, and there was the flag flying in the breeze! Just goes to show that the best things in life really are free! And we would like the person responsible for putting the flag there to know we really do ap­ preciate it. Sincerely, Mr. and Mrs. A.W.

Right??? Well. . yes. . but there is a different kind of coffee break, too! This kind happens about ONCE A YEAR and lasts all day long. It is like a carnival with games, prizes, music, good food, free coffee, and a chance to visit with old friends as well as make many new ones. The Michigan Cold Country Citizens Band Radio * QSL Gab is sponsoring such a “coffee break" on Saturday, May 8, at the Community Building in Hastings. The "action" will go on from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and every hour will be packed with fun and surprises. There will be free prizes for the kids-and the kitchen will serve a variety of food and ice cream. Music will be by the Wolfram Fechner "Wienerschnitzels," a talanted local group which has appeared at area homecomings, fairs, and on TV as well. There will be booth displays of radio and electronic equipment, plus booths selling various handicraft items. ■ This is the first community­ wide social function sponsored by the Michigan Cold Country CB Radio & QSL Club, a relatively new club which was formed ou Oct. 1. H78. In spite of "Michigan" in the club name, it actually is a world­ wide club with members in all 50 states, in Canada, Australia. Sweden, Denmark, England, France, and many more foreign countries. "QSL" means they can correspond by letter as well as by radio airwaves with their members, who now number over 2400. Another unique fact-the "Michigan" club is the brain­ child of Kenneth Bucher, a native RETURN FROM THE WEST Mr. and Mrs. Carlyle J. Nye have returned from a 12-weeks trip to the West. They were in Tucson, Ariz., seven weeks, leaving there on March 16 for Solvang. Calif., an interesting Danish town, where they visited friends who were formerly from Vermont. Other highlights of their trip were the Grand Canyon, the Petrified Forest and the Eisenhower Center, and they also enjoyed a visit with their great nephew. AF Major Gen. Francis W. Nye, and cousins in Kansas whom they were meeting for the first time. of Akron, Ohio, and he is assisted by Clyde Carr, a native of Mt. Ida, Ark. The club headquarters are at the Bucher home at Carlton Center Ten percent of the proceeds from this coffee break are pledged to the Hastings Teenage Drop-In Center. The Buchers and Carrs have five sons, three of whom are now teenagers, so they are aware of the need for such a meeting and communication center for the teenagers of the community, and they urge you to attend the coffee break and support the teenage center at the same time.

George's two sons Steve on the left and Mike on the right, offer their congradulations to their father. Behind George is Jim Cotter and Dr. Robert Huebner. by R.M.C. m ■■ ■ ।. ■ The following‘Salute to George "Buzz" Youngs* Is from the special edition published for the Testimonial Dinner given in his honor al the Hastings Country Cub on April 20. We al lhe Banner and Press would like to lake this opportunity to offer our congradulations to Buzz because we* as others* know that he is the greatest. George ts a journalist of "the old school.” a real, dyed-in-the-wool pro dedicated to the proposition that news stories should be confined to facts and not used as a sneaky medium for editorial comment. If more of the big name Washington correspondents and TV commen­ tators adhered to this same principle In reciting their dally "tales of woe." we would have a better balanced and much more accurate picture of the national and world scene. Under the pressure of meeting deadlines, errors are Inevitable. However, I do know from first-hand observation that George made every reasonable effort possible to verify facts and to get them Into print without distortion. His record here Is excellent. When events are on the move bringing in their wake plenty of news and headline material, it is easy to write copy for a weekly edition. However, in a small community such as ours, there are always Interludes when things come to a standstill. This is a situation that, from a journalistic standpoint, reparates the men from the boys. But no matter how dull the times, Buzz always seemed able to dig in and come through with items of worthwhile news interest. Ability such as this. Is the ultimate teat of a real pro'. In addition to journalistic duties that have been considerable, George has found time to become actively Involved in numerous com­ munity activities such as youth work, fund drives, the Barry County Red Cross and publicity chairman of committees too numerous to mention. Mention of tlie Red Cross brings to mind the fact that George, over the years, has been a consistent donor to the Blood Bank. posslbly the most consistent one in this entire area. His record of more than nine gallons is remarkable but entirely consistent with his philosophy of always being’ ready to help someone tn need. Not the least of George's accomplishments is that he has raised two fine boys, both of whom are engaged in useful, worthwhile careers. In this, of course. Buzz has had some valuable assists from Gladys, an ebullient personage in her own right. Nevertheless, If the boys had gone “sour," George would have been shouldered with a major share of the blame. But, since things definitely did not turn out that waymore honor to him! In brief, George has been a real “pro" as a journalist, a loyal and useful citizen of this community, a parent who took responsible concern in the upbringing and careers of his two sons, an all-around good fellow and a loyal friend who is always there with an assist when something a little extra is needoti. This meeting, George, is a completely spontaneous event to demon­ strate how much we think of you and how glad we are that you and Gladys decided to make Hastings your home._________ ’__________ 4 Humorous and Emotional Moments prevailed as family and friends talked about past nc< curences with George. 5 Gathered aroaad the head table are Matter af Ceremony Frank Hnntley, Lew Lang.

Mrs. Melvin Haight and Mrs. Gordon VanderWeele were co-hoateasea. Following the luncheon Mrs. Jack Wood. Dean of the Public Affairs Department, introduced the Probate Judge Philip H. Mitchell, who spoke of the “Developments in Probate Court Procedure.” Judge Mitchel] is a member of the State committee studying proposals for the needed changes in Probate Court structure and operation. At present the courts are operating under laws enacted many years ago. He discussed various weaknesses in present systems and the various suggestions which have been presented (or changes to be considered and proposed by the State committee and the Legislature, explaining the effect such changes would have on settlement of esthtes especially. One important change being considered is in the realm of ddwer rights for women in their husbands’ estates. When the new law soon to go into effect regarding so-called equal rights to be established between men and women there will be much confusion about the rights of men in the property of their wives, as equal rights works two ways. The American Bar Association has been studying a uniform Probate procedure law for all states to follow. The business meeting followed the discussion with Judge Mit­ chell. Mrs.* Claude Gardner resigned as a member of the board and Mrs. Richard Welton was named to replace her. Two recommendations from the Board were presented by the secretary. One recommendation passed was a proposal to donate $150 to Charlton Park to be used for the purchase of chairs and tables for the benefit of visitors. Frank Walsh, director of the park, accepted the check from Mrs. Jack Wood and more than 40 trading stamp books which members have donated. The second recommendation was adopted authorizing the payment of $50 toward a vocal musical scholarship at In­ terlochen. There is one applicant from Hastings awaiting word of his acceptance. The entire amount needed for a full scholarship is $180. The Hastings Rotary Club has offered to donate the needed $130 for the scholarship for this candidate. Before the annual reports were given the program was in­ terrupted to hear the Hastings High School choir under the directorship of Herbert Moyer. The annual reports of the various officers followed. Retiring President Mrs. Rozell Stanton, enumerated the ac complishments of the chib during the past club year, including the sponsorship of the Hastings Centennial tea and Fashion Show and the entering of a float in the Centennial parade.

The Huskies are the first team in the 31-year history of the, early Spring classic to win three titles in a row. The win gave them four crowns, as they also won in 1968. Battle Creek Lakeview finished second with 37Ml points and the l^kewood Vikings came through to win third with 29 points. Grand Rapids Central Christian and Marshall tied for fourth with 18 points, Charlotte was sixth with 17H, followed by Mason with 16, Portage Central and Lansing Waverly 13. Gull Lake and Portland ti«l for tenth with 8, G.R. East Christian had 6. Kalamazoo Hackett and Niles Brandywine 4, Pennfield 3 and Hastings. Ionia and St. Johns, ended up without a point. Portage Northern again won against a strong field, and again against a strong, cold wind which kept the contestants huddled in their buses between events, and Die several hundred spectators shivered even while wrapped in blankets. The meet was well organized by Athletic Director Jock Clarey. who had efficient assistance from the referee and starter, Malcolm Gobel of Charlotte, and the Hastings athletic staff, local sportsmen and coaches from the visiting schools. Northern finished second in the 880 relay and won the next two final events to race away with the title. Only one record was broken, probably due to the cold and slow track. Charles Durrant of Por­ tland set a new high jump mark of 6 feet, 3 inches, bettering the old mark of 6 feet, 2'^ inches set by Jack Armstrong of Three Rivers back in 1968. Bill Bowen, one of Lakewood’s outstanding athletes, started the Vikings on their way to a high finish when he took second in the long jump in 20 feet, 6*4, then the team of Mike Norris, Jerry landon, Matt Cramer and Bowen won the 440 relay in 46.6. Lakewood took fifth in the distance medley to bring the Viking total to 16 points. Bowen then won the high hurdles in 15.95 and the sprint medley team finished second to Northern to give the Vikings their fine 29-point third place finish.

Battle Creek Lake view took second and our own Lakewood High Vikings came through for third place with 29 points. Bill Bowen, who has been a stalwart for Lakewood all through his prep career, retained his high nurdles crown by winning Saturday in 15.95, a bit off the Pee he set a year ago. Lakewood now in the Tn-River Con­ ference, so Bowen will be unable to defend his West Central league low and high hurdles titles he has held for two years. Bowen anchored Lakewood's winning 440 team Saturday. Mike Morrison led off, Jerry Landon took the baton from him and passed it to Matt Cramer. Jerry is a freshman! Hastings High, which won the first relays in 1937 with 55^ points when there were only five schools represented, won the Class B crown in 1948 with 41 2-5 points. That year Hastings placed in all events but the distance medley, 880 relay and the shot put. Ray Branch won the high hurdles that year in 16.2, and Joe Hubert was 5th. We had a big victoty in the sprint medley with Bill Porteous, Owen Thomas, Bob Branch and Neil Will gar­ nering 10 points for Coach Tony Turkal's Saxons. Hubert and Leland Christiansen tied for fourth in the pole vault. The team of Thomas, Bob Brooks, Will and Bob Branch lost out in the 440 by a tenth of a second. That vear the Relays attracted 14 Class B schools, and 20 Class C-D entires with over 500 contestants. Hastings hasn't won ns own classic since all of the schools have been lumped together. Athletic Director Jock Clarey is dreaming of an all-weather track, and some day to run two divisions of about 16 schools each. It takes a lot of help to operate an event such as the Relays, and among those assisting Coach Clarey and Referee Malcolm Gobei were Tom Ailshouse, Norm Richardson, Bruce Mc­ Dowell, Jack Hoke, Ernie Strong, Patricia Murphy, Dennis Storrs, Lew 1-ang, Tom Cote, Larry Melendy, Dave Styf, Ron Miller, Bob Bolton, Bob Carlson, Bernie Oom, Ernie Strong, Chris Bessmer, Lynne Wallin, Jack Pearl, Pat Purgiel, Jerry Eck­ man, Jim Sutherland, Ed McKeough, Dick Feldpausch, Tom Freridge, Hal Wattla, Gay Jordan, D.

Outdoor Trail—Application forms for free permits covering general salvage activities by scuba divers on the bottomlands of the Great Lakes and Lake St. Clair this season are being mailed to the Department of Natural Resources' district of­ fices and some of its other field installations, including a few State parks. Sports divers who obtain the 72 permits will be allowed, in fraeswimming style but without the aid of mechanical equipment, to remove unattached objects from these bottomlands. Seasonal permits for this and all other 'types of underwater "treasure­ hunting” in the same waters will be issued from Lansing. Other season permits, also without charge, are required for three classes of salvage activities— specified sport, commercial and scientific. In a liberal change from its 1971 permit progam. the DNR is no longer requiring permits of scute divers who simply wans to explore the depths of lakes Superior, Michigan, Huron, Erie and St. Clair. Last year's permit rule has also been lifted tor un­ derwater photography and spear fishing in these lalces. Charles G.

According to Mrs. Mary Spackman, president of the Hastings Business and Professional Women's Club and Secretary-Treasurer of Hastings Savings and Loan, "The Idea of this week is to recognize the great contributions secretaries make in keeping business running smoothly." It is certain that thousands of businessmen throughout the country would agree on this quote, and each would thank his secretary. Many would agree that the typing, filing, accounting and paper work that dominates a secretary's hours are what keeps the business running. With the hope that all the employers realize the im­ portance of their secretaries and maybe take them out for lunch this week, we proudly salute the business women across the country!

Fire Destroys Large Bam, 47 Pigs, Tools Expanding gasoline spraying out of a tractor gas tank caused a fire which destroyed the large bam, pigs, two tractors and other tools on the Donald Haskins farm at 6787 Jordan Road, Woodland, Thursday afternoon, April 27. The total loss was not Im­ mediately estimated, but the loss of the large International tractor and plow alone was figured at 15,000. Also lost were five sows and 42 little pigs, another smaller, Ferguson tractor, a hay baler, kids’ bikes, the air compressor for the milker, tool boxes and many other tools, 200 bales of hay, 160 bales of straw and some chopped hay, Haskins said. Haskins' said he drove his tractor into the bam and noticed the ftiel tank was leaking gas. He unscrewed the the fuel tank cap and the gas, under pressure, squirted out and onto the hot engine and muffler, and ignited. Don was singed and the barn burned to the ground in 45 minates or an hour, but was still Two Woodland firemen were burned.

Tbe tax rate will jump to 15.2S mills per thousand based on a reduced tax base of $34,731,093.

C.----------In connection with the Presidential Primarv election this coming May 16. two proposed amendments to the State Constitution will be up for vote. PROPOSAL A would allow the Legislature to authorize lotteries and to permit the sale of lottery tickets. Presumably, if these lotteries could be kept out of the hands of professional gamblers, the State­ might find this a comparatively painless vehicle to extract more revenue to sweeten the hard pressed general fund. Proposal A does not spell out any system to be followed in the sale of lottery tickets nor method for the collection and accounting of funds. A proposal as loosley worded as this one, it seems to us. is an open invitation to scandal and misuse of public funds. Adoption of such a proposal could mark the beginning of an en­ tirely new bureaucracy,U» pile on top of those already in existence. True, even under bad management, there would probably be some surplus to accrue to the State out far from enough in proportion to the size of the "take ' Unless the management was tightly controlled too large a percentage the receipts from ticket sales would go for overhead costs, salaries, fees, etc. ' As it appears on the ballot. it is our opinion that Proposal A should be defeated by a vote of “No." PROPOSAL B would amend the State Constitution to permit members of the legislature to be elected or appointed to another civil office during the term for which they were elected. Before accepting the new office or appointment, they would be required to resign from the legislative office. ' In our opinion Proposal B should be defeated by a vote of "No," even though there are probably a few rare instances when a resignation under these circumstances might work to the advantage of all concerned. Michigan legislators are among the best paid in the Nation. Their election is, in our opinion, a covenant with the people to serve for a full term and not. under any circumstances to use their position as a stepping s|one to something that may seem better. In general, we believe that Proposed Amendments to the Con­ stitution should be defeated unless there is some overpowering reason for adopting them Such conditions are not present either in Proposal A or Proposal B. Both should be defeated by a vote of “No." These Proposals do. however, constitute added reason for a strong voter'turn out at the polls this coming May 16, the date of Michigan's first Presidential Primary Election. / In regard to the Presidential Primary, the Question arises in the minds of many people. "Should 1 vote for only those delegates to the County Convention who support the candidate I favor? The answer is "no." Your vote for delegates to the county con­ vention wall have no effect on the selection of state delegates to the National Conventions The comity delegates to the State Conventions are required by the law to select delegations to the National Con­ ventions that accurately reflect popular vote received by each of the presidential candidates listed on the primary ballot for each of the parties involved. Thus, it is your vote for a presidential candidate that determine^ the make-up of state delegations to the National Conventions. If you mark a choice for a presidential candidate on the upper part of the ballot, vote for whichever candidates for the county convention you prefer, regardless of whether or not their stated preferences coincide with yours This may seem a bit involved, but it really is not. It simply means that delegates to the county and stale conventions are committed to carrying out the popular will as reflected in the state vote, rather than promoting their own personal preferences. On the whole, the system is democratic and if voters turn out in good number on election day. the result should accurately reflect the public will. It is possible, if not probable, that two competing amendments to the State Constitution regarding tax reform for the benefit of public education will appear on the fall ballot. One. sponsored by the MEA and having the support of Gov. Milliken is already being circulated. Actually, the MEA petitions cover two separate amendments. One has to do with instituting additional state income tax to support educational costs and take some of the load off from local propertv taxes. , The second MEA proposal has to do with amending the con­ s'itulion to permit a graduated income tax—a form of tax at present prohibited by the constitution The competing Democratic proposal covers much the same ground but insists on an amendment that combines a graduated in­ cone tax with a reduction in reliance on the local property tax. It would be better for all concerned, we believe, if the Democrats along with some Republicans who are supporting this measure, would cease and desist in this senseless competition and support the MEA proposals People can be trusted to vote for what they believe to be best The MEA proposal follows a more democratic route in that it does not compel people to vote for a graduated tax in order to vote added support for the schools. If the Democrats are really interested in both education and tax reform, they could do immeasurable service to Michigan by with­ drawing their own petitions and support those already being proposed by the MEA. and joining in a truly bipartisan campaign to bring about a program of tax reform and aid to education If enough peopte^vant a graduated income tax, they will vote for it. Otherwise this issue^hould not be shoved down their throats as a condition for tax reform qnd school aid. Petitions favoring the MEA proposals are being widely cir­ culated locally and in the county People, we believe, should have no hesitancy in signing them After all. this is only an effort to get them on the fall baBot.

Names will be withheld on request, letters must be written on matters of public concern and should be brief. The editor reserves the right to edit all missives. The Editor To the Editor: With all the recent publicity regarding the Hastings Walk In Center, I feel compelled to add a few comments. First of all, I would like to say dial I feel the "Walk In Center is perhaps the best project to hit the Hastings area since I have lived here (24 years). I have personally con­ tributed to the cause and sin­ cerely hope to see the project become a reality. However, I would like to bring out the fact that with all the eloquent thank yous that have been mentioned recently regarding people Who have done more than their share to support the "Walk In Center" there seems to have been one left out (whether intentionally or not is not important). I realize that mentioning everyone is nearly impossible but I feel that these people deserve the credit for doing their share. Back in November of last year, the Blarney Stone Bar, owned and operated by Mr. and Mrs. Jeffy Gates, held a benefit on a Sunday afternoon if anyone remembers. Donations at the door, and 10c a drink were donated to the "Walk In Center.” In addition, three bands per­ formed. Rick Rodriguez and the Cavaliers, the Thompson Boys, and Ivory from the High School. Two of the members of the Cavaliers were celebrating Thanksgiving that Sunday with their families which meant they had to leave their family early in order to play this benefit. It seems rather strange to me that this was all done voluntarily and to my knowledge, no one in any of the bands, not to mention Jerry and Nancv Gates were even acknowledged for the con­ tributions of time and money involved. This letter may seem sarcastic but it is not being written with that inte»,*«on. I do feel that people like Jerry and Nancy and the members of the bands that performed that Sunday are being left out in the credit given to so many others, perhaps unfairly. In conclusion, I humbly add my thanks to The Gates Family. Rick Rodriguez and the Cavaliers, The Thompson Boys, and Ivory along with all who came out last November to support the "Walk In Center." A thankful Citizen To the Editor: Do you know what really irkes me a bout small towns like the one I live in.

Why you'll have a name before you get married." They don't even care how my fiance and I feel. They only worry about what the people in the town will think of us. My parents never said a word when he came to my house and they weren't home. But just you let me ask them if I can go to his home for five minutes and they go into this big long lecture about "What wifi people think?" Well 1 don’t care what other people think of me because it doesn’t bother me at all.. And when you come right down to it, what I do, where I go and who I’m with really isn t anybody’s business but mine. I know I’m not doing anvthing “wrong" by their standards of what’s wrong and what's right. But do they care about what actually goes on? No. They see a girl so into a man’s apartment and they figure they know the rest, so they tell it. Do you know what f think? I think that when it gets so bad in a town that people can’t go about their own business without the whole town knowing about it in five minutes, then, in my ooinion, that town isn't even fit to live in and I don’t care to be associated with it. If half the people who start all this gossip would take a good, long, hard look at themselves in that primping device called a mirror, they’d soon see that they don’t have any right whatsoever to spread stories about others. If they'd run their own lives instead of the lives of their neighbors, and keep their own noses in joint, they’d lead happier lives. If their neighbor wants them to know what they’re doing down in the basement on Tuesday's and Thursday's between Hie hours of 1:00 a.m. and 3:00 a.m., they'll tell them But until such time arises, it isn’t any of their business Most people start stories to cover up their own inferiorities. They seem to feel that if they can downgrade another, or run a reputation into the ground that they build up their own reputation by so-doing. But they’re wrong. They’re not only hurting others, but they're hurting themselves as well. If the big gossips would look at themselves real good, they’d not only see that they don't have any room to talk, they'd probably be ashamed of what they saw in themselves, and it wouldn’t be long before they’d mind their own business. One thing that I’ve noticed that most gossipers have in common, is the fact that the stories they start about others is happening in their own families. But they act like they don’t even know it exists. Like the parent who says his kid doesn't drink, smoke, swear or steal, but they talk about the neighbor kid who just graduated and comes home drunk every night, or sometimes doesn't even bother to come home at all. But on prac­ tically any given night, you can go to the local bar and find their kid totally inebreated. smoking, gambling and using some of the filthiest, rotten gutter language they can find. Generally you can find three or four people who will attest to the fact that they’ve seen him steal things from the local drugstore or hardware. And then when their kid gets in trouble, the parents say "Where did I go wrong? He was always such a good boy/’. If they'd pay attention to tneir own kids instead of their neigh bors, they’d know what was going on "behind their backs." Signed: Disgusted Controlled circulation pottage paid at post oltlce.

Lwvwl A Banned* Feature* For And About Barry County \ oiitli Editorials By Chris Glenn Delton Kellogg High School What has happened to Earth Day? It seems all the enthusiasm has vanished from what once was a tremendous idea. We once either saw or read about people cleaning up the road sides, streams, and ponds, but now it is very seldom that you will come upon these phenomena. Was Earth Day just a fad, just something to change the pace of life? Many people feel the novelty has just worn off Might the reason for this year’s Ecology Week failing be because there was not enough com­ munication and advertising? This possibility has arisen in Site a few people’s minds and I •I it may nave been one of the main causes of the poor par­ ticipation. I realize the lack of communication was not the total problem, much of it was due to little concern. We must cultivate the interest of Earth Day or else it will die along with our earth. . .

It is not true that a man who has violated the draft law will be subject to "10 years hard labor." Maximum penalties for violating the draft law carry S’ yrs. and 110,000 fine. Fines are practically never imposed; the average prison term in the country last year for draft offenses was 2 yrs not 5; the term is not at "hard labor." Westphal’s statement that "your chances of getting a job will be practically nil" by not having served in the military is false. I am a 1-0 conscientious objector (from Local Board No. 8 in Barry County) and I teach high school. After attending the Uof M I worked for the University in a laboratory on campus-many teachers with whom 1 work are also conscientious objectors. As a draft counselor ,1 have seen hundreds of conscientious ob jectors over 4 yrs, all working at all kinds of jobs in the com­ munity, from factory workers to store clerks to farmers, etc etc etc .

Statistically, the man who enters the military is in the minority, especially now that the US is conducting an electronic air war in Asia...! would be glad to put you in touch with some Vietnam veterans. .

Express Talents, Ideas In 10-Year Time Capsule By Dyon Dyre The psychology classes have started an exciting project which will be revealed in ten years’! Uniting their ideas and talents, the students are constructing a Time Capsule; represent!ve of 1972’s young people, world events and new ideas. Hopes for a class reunion have been expressed by some of the students for the blast­ off in ten years. The purpose of the Time Capsule, other than having fun, is to possibly try and explain what type of people exist in this era, how they think, and perceive, how their concepts and morals have changed, included in the capsule, are some of the number I albums, the movies of the year, and some major world events which effect many people, one of which is the 18 year old vote. Concerning the students, some surveys are being conducted to reveal some of the dislikes, and desires of the students. A small group of students are writing a class prophecy, descriptive of the students. The world of the 1970's fashion, and design is also being included in the capsule, an in­ teresting topic for companion in 1982. A few items to be possibly donated for the capsule, include a pair of "crufty" jeans, hiking boots, 1972 Ddtonian, and a painted rock. The Time Capsule, after being completed will be locked away, to be presented to the class of 1982. Bob Booth Agency Just Insurance" The Superette 205 N. Michigan Hastings 945-5432 • Bowlin, 207 E.

Students Earn Profits By Tree Planting Project By Chris Glenn Wednesday, April 25, 1972, Delton held a tree planting project. The planting activities lasted all day and involved ap­ proximately 35 students. Then students were divided into supervised planting teams and were instructed in the proper ways of planting by Mrs. Audrey Judge, Delton^s conservation teacher. The 8,000 trees that were planted costed from $32 to $42 per 1,000 depending on which type of pine. This cost included the planting fee. Profits will go into a fund to further develop Delton's nature center. This protect was directed by Mrs. Judge and Mr. Beebe, two of Delton's teachers, and is in it's second year of what we hope to become an annual event.

Memorable Mavahian '72 By Jeanine Lykins and Pam Hammond Maple Valley’s 1972 Mavahian has taken on a new look. This year’s cover will feature a pic­ ture of four seniors: Julie Potter, editor of the yearbook; Terese Beecher, valedictorian; Frank Liebhauser, president of the class, and Bart Bracy, president of the Student Council. An order for four hundred books has been sent out which shall be received by students in the fall. Originality is the key word in yearbook making-adding extra zing is what really gets it off the ground and into the laps of its readers, so the MV Mavahian staff has found out. Colored pages, a fold out, different degrees of black-whiteand gray are just some of the things that make the *72 edition great! Hand in hand with originality goes quality-and it’s hard to beat the quality of this year’s Mavahian. Sharp clear photos dominate the scene accented by crisp refreshing copy.

The story is of the prince of the land. John Griffith, who is trying to find a wife, for there is a law that no one else in the kingdom may wed until Prince Dauntless shares his marriage bed. With Queen Aggravarian's medaling and testing for the Kincess who is just right for her luntless, it is a trying time. Twelve consecutive princesses have failed the tests and the lights look dim for Sir Harry (Steve Brady) anrf Lady Larken (Jackie Maichele) who ab­ solutely must get married. Sir Harry promises Lady Larken that he will bring back a true princess who will pass the queen’s tests He retumes with Princess Winifred, Lori Tooker, a rambunctious, back-woods, £wamp princess, and laughter begins.

We complain of its cost.'but congratulate our selves when we need to depend on it Ambulance service is similar It costs money to have, but is indeed appreciated when needed.. Barry county commissioners, caught in a cross fire of rising expenditures and demands for st I X ices have reluctantly turned the responsibility of ambulance service to local units of govern­ ment effective Jqpe 1, 1972 In an effort to ease the monetary burden of local units, the counts will share $25,000. spreading funds out to each unit based on the unit's percentage of taxes paid to the county. The county has wrestled with ambulance service since 1966 when funeral directors said it wasn't financially feasible to operate the service. The ambulance over the years was parked in the funeral home garage as a convenience to the public, with money to operate it coming out of lhe funeral director's business Govern­ mental regulations as the result of medicare and medicaid, plus the rising cost of doing business forced tbe ambulance out ot the MILLER Real Estate COMPLEX! SEAL « ESTATE SERVICE INSURANCE • BONDS W W. Stat* St. funeral home garage and inlp the hands of the county. In 196X Barry county got in­ volved subsidizing five firms for a total price tag of Ml.000 a year. A year later lhe county sought competitive bids in hopes of reducing the expenditures Such action resulted in two firms receiving county ambulance service contracts for 39 months a\ a cost of $14,000. County commissioners for at least 39 months had solved their problem, with an operation located in Hastings and a second in Delton. However several township supervisors obiected to the centralization of ambulances saying residents in and around Middleville and Nashville needed a sen-ice closer to home. Foiledin their attempts to gain county funding both areas worked out arrangements to support their own service Maple Grove and Castleton Townships got together and through the Nashville Fire Department supported a service. Thornapple and Yankee Springs did like wise supporting the funeral home in Middleville to provide the service. The thorny issue remained dorm at until last Fall, when the county decided townships were more financially endowed and should accept responsibility for some services now being provided by the county. One such service was ambulance. County commissioners en­ couraged local units to get started on a solution in an effort to beat the June 1st deadline of , county ambulance contracts. Most areas took the nudge from the county and began preparing themselves to take over the service. Thornapple and Yankee Springs, joined by Irving township, got together with the Beeler Funeral Home of Mid­ dleville. The four townships of Hope, Barry, Orangeville, and Prairieville worked with Williams Funeral Home of Delton. Maple Grove and Castleton townships already had The "Leader” For DIVERTED ACRES...

Several of the supervisors suggested that a special millage levy might be the answer to raising necessary monies to finance the service. One ambulance operator has said, no one can establish am­ bulance service over night, and statistics prove that if revenue can not meet expenses there can be no service. Barry County, unlike its larger metropolitan brother, doesn't have the availability of dollars to meet the demands of its residents. In Barrv County, ambulance service becomes a public service supported by public funds, whereas heavily populated area handle the problem through private en­ terprise.

That left the city of Hastings, and the townships of Carlton. Woodland. Rutland. Hastings and Baltimore to either act alone or join forces. Negotiations for service continued until the county an­ nounced the establishment of an "emergency ambulance fund.” Intentions were to set aside $25,000 to aid those areas which might not be ready lo operate a service when ambulance con­ tracts expired June 1st. (Money was a return of a State matching grant on the county's medical facility sewage lagoon. Total amount returned was $75,000. $30,000 was socked away in a capital improvement fund for the renovation of the old jail and surfacing of county parking lots.) Why funds were set aside is any one’s guess. Bui what ever the reason, it caused each area to suspend their talks, waiting to book. Interact. Key Club, Fellowship of Christian Athletes.

With the clock begining to run out. and some officials realizing nothing permanent had been resolved, the county started to help out by getting local people together and talking about the problem. It wasn't long before the county found itself working on a total county progfam again. Plans lo centralize an operation in Hastings at Pennock Hospital failed...as did an at­ tempt to renew for one year the current program. Objections came from those commissioners whose townships already sup­ ported a local service. They argued, that if there was $25,000 to give, they wanted their fair share. They also argued that if other areas of the county could work out an arrangement for ambulance service so could Hastings the five adjacent townships.

Dr. Lawrence B Schlack, superin­ tendent reports. Middleville will not vote on the tax levy as the T-K district will join Kept County on July 1. With the loss of Middleville from the Barry Intermediate District, the district loses about $14,000 on the specially voted half-mill tax (1963) which will continue to be levied in tbe Hastings and Delton districts. The half-mill tax has been bringing in about $56,000. If the additional .75 of a mill is approved, the 1.25 levy would bring in about $120,000. Dr. Schlack said the in­ termediate district now provides six classrooms in local schools for mentally handicapped children, is providing speech therapy for more than 200 children, operates the Chidester School for the menially retarded, provides a service for those homebound and hospitalized and has a social worker to assist elementary children with per­ sonal social adjustment problems. Passage of the three-quarter of a mill additional tax is necessary, Dr. Schlack said, as current funds can no longer support existing services. In addition, new programs needed include an additional classroom at Chidester which would mean one more teacher and one aide. Two new teachers for children with emotional problems are needed. Dr. Schlack said two more social workers are needed to help the troubled children succeed in school and one teacher is needed to help preschoolers wno nave speech handicaps. More support is also needed for the special education classrooms in the Delton and Hastings schools. Choose From 100's of gay new patterns in stock!

Radford Directors �Do You Have Something To Be Happy About? n/<*4, <4$^ Work of Vanda Is—Bill Hubbell of the Consumers Power Company inspects one of the half dozen broken trees which have been placed along State Street to help beautify the business district. The Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce and retailers are sponsoring the project, and hardly had members of the Hastings High Key Hub set the trees and holders on the street when the vandalism began. Even the wooden boxes holding the tree containers are being kicked in. Robert Johnson, manager of the chamber, said some of the trees may be repaired, and the others replaced. Citizens might well keep their eyes open and perhaps catch the culprits who can't stand beauty.—Banner photo.

Mike Kesler, 18, who lives east of Dowling and works for Pole Barn Construction, likes the free parking in the off street lots. “I never did like to feed the meters,” he added. ’‘This is really nice.” Kesler said he hadn’t had too much trouble finding a place to park, and added that busy lots meant that they were being used as they should be. A 1971 HHS graduate, Kesler said he didn’t know whether the lots are mure crowded now than when they were metered. G.M. (Al) Allison, who resides at 6627 Whitneyville Road, Middleville, said he enjoyed shopping in Hastings and thought Ambulance Firm Needs Subsidy Central Ambulance Company officials of Hastings announced Friday, May 5, that they have received official notice from the Barry County Board of Com­ missioners that their contract to provide Ambulance Service in Barry County will not be renewed after the expiration of the current contract at midnight May 31, 1972. Officials of the company say that they have made several offers to’ the commissioners to continue service to the people but all offers have been rejected. They state that it will be financially impossible to con­ tinue operations without assistance so they are reluctantly making preparations to close down operations concurrent with the expiration of the contract, the 90 degree parking stalls ’’would work out.” He said picking up additional parking spaces and the mall concept should be a big help to the merchants. Slowing lhe State street traffic is also a good idea. Allison, who works with pollution control chemicals, said ne believed the Hastings downtown has made a big step forward and it should help in bolding business, and gaining new customers. “There seems to be progress with the merchants, too, and they are putting things together," Allison added. “We’re still fur­ ther ahead coming to Hastings to shop then driving a long distance to find a metropolitan area. Hastings is dressed up, and it’s clean,** he concluded. Spencer Scobey, Middle Lake, likes the new system. "It is easy to park across the street, but I’ve had trouble parking on lhe same side,” he said. "Imink it will do the merchants a lot of good.” Scobey said he preferred meters because “I can find a place to park. It is a good deal. It also cuts down cars racing.” Mrs. Robert (Sharon) Still, 827 S. Washington, said she didn’t like the straight in parking. “Pulling in isn’t so bad. but the getting out is, especially if the car across the street is backing »ut at the same time.” Mrs. Still said she didn’t mind paying the meters. “It's never bothered me.” Mrs. Emest (Barb) Strong, 715 W. Madison, said she liked the new parking “very well. I liked it during the Christmas season, too." Mrs. Strong added that she was surprised to find so many stalls open Saturday morning. She said many times she would come down oh a Saturday and, after failing to find a place to park, would return home. Mrs. Strong added that slowing up the State Street traffic has been good. “I don’t mind the 90 degree angle, either,” she added. Drivers must be careful in backing out into the street, as vision is sometimes blocked, especially when trucks are parked on the street. The first accident occurred about three hours after the street was opening, but that one was not reported, Chief Sunior said. The first reported accident occurred Monday morning, May 8. Chief Sunior warns drivers that backing into the parking stalls is illegal. Drivers can back out, and go either way, however. Fire Fighters In Training—Chief Robert Shears, Captain Don Van Dyke and Lt. Wheeler, all of the Grand Rapids Fire Department, conducted training sessions in Hastings on April 29 and May 6. Members of area depart­ ments—Orangeville, Woodland, Middleville, Nashville and Delton—participated in the drills arranged by Hastings Fire Chief Donald Sothard. The instructors put the men through various phases of fire fighting, ladder drills and other on May 6 showed them the use of protein foam and “light water.” Here they are using foam to extinguish flaming fluid.— Banner photo.

Deputy Maynard Sutton (left) found this gold, diamond ring in a field where it had been thrown by a juvenile who had stolen it from the home of Mrs. Louise Steele of Freeport. The juvenile told officers about where he had tossed it, and Deputy Sutton and Sgt. David Wood made two trips to a field behind 1012 S.

Hastings New Parking System Meets With Motorists’ Favor Hastings new parking system, which provides for straight in or 90 degree, metered parking in the two blocks on State Street bet­ ween Michigan and Church, and for free, two-hour parking on the off-street lots with the exception of the lots between Michigan and Jefferson north of Apple, is meeting with the favor of motorists.

C.---------------------------- During his 48 years in the Department of Justice, J. Edgar Hoover served with distinction under both Republican and Democratic administrations. Eight presidents appointed or reap­ pointed him to direct the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Naturally, he was criticized sharply and often in the liberal press but his best answer was the record of professional efficiency and integrity in the department over which he held the tight, guiding reins. Critics could never make a case against him that had even the faintest ring of conviction. By now, many people have forgotten the wave of kidnapping, and robbing of banks that hit the United States during the 1930s. That, too. was an era of violence, although law Enforcement officials were not faced with the many technical restrications that handicap police operations in the present era of permissiveness and violence Thanks to the efficiency of the FBI. both of these crimes were brought under control Kidnappings became a rare rather than a weekly (yes, even'' daily) occurance and the hoodlum gangs of bank robbers were broken up and put behind the bars. This was done by outsmarting and out­ fighting both robbers and kidnappers by direct and effective methods that produced results. Back in the days when Hoover was molding the FBI into the world’s most effective police and investigative force, there was overwhelming popular support for the ouaint notion that public safety is an important factor in the overall protection of civil rights Under Hoover, the FBI pioneered in the systamatic collection ot crime data and effective use of this information. His scientific crime laboratory and fingerprint file have been universally admired and copied and have been lied Jn with law enforcement agencies throughout the nation. During World War II, the FBI turned in a superb performance in regard to domestic intelligence, preventing a single case of foreigndirocted sabotage. The internal security record was perfect Many of Hoover's ultra-liberal critics claim that his "blind and unquestioning hatred" or Communism was a weakness. Time will tell whether this criticism is valid. Certainly Hoover had more extensive and precise information on this subject than any of his critics. He knew the many devious and ingenious tactics used by the Com­ munists and their sympathizers and other far-left revolutionary groups to infiltrate organizations and foment civic unrestand turmoil. Hoover attempted to warn the nation, but in a wave of reaction, the United States chose to let down its guard. The easy and efficient manner in which Russian agents infiltrated our atomic plants and stole production "secrets" indicates that his warnings had a solid basis of fact. The United States will be fortunate indeed to find a new director for the FBI who can match Hoover’s accomplishments. At news of his death. Hags were ordered at half-mass and a special service was held in the Rotunda of the Capitol. It was entirely proper that these special honors should be given in memory of this distinguished individual whose life was devoted to serving the nation he admired and loved. Hoover was a truly great American The conflict between individual civil rights and the rights of society is not new in the effort of Americans to establish and maintain a stable form of democratic rule. In fact, it was George Washington, who once admonished Americans during the early days under the new Constitution that they must learn "to distinguish between oppression and the necessary exercise of lawful authority.” That advice is especially appropriate today. In our present restless and violent era, it would seem that the law has swung too far in the direction of the individual. The need for the exercise of lawful authority for the protection of society is being ignored or overlooked Restless extremists and revolutionaries have taken advantage of this situation to use these freedoms to undermine the stability of our government by fomenting unrest and riots. The wisdom and courage with which we face up to the task of restoring a balance between oppression and exercise of lawful authority," will determine the quality real freedom in America for years to come.

Nixon. Paul N. McCloskey and "Uncommitted." No presidential candidates nor delegates to the County Con­ vention have been listed in the American Independent Party column. Your vote for the presidential candidate is the key step in this primary election. The sum total of the popular vote here will deter­ mine the make-up of the Michigan delegations to the National Con­ ventions REGARDLESS of your vote for the delegates to the County Convention Delegates to the County Convention are charged with respon­ sibility of sending a delegation to the State Convention that ac­ curately reflects the outcome of the popular vote in the county and the State delegates, in turn, must base the makeup of the delegations to the National Conventions in line with the outcome of the state-wide popular vote This can be done in either party through the "ddegatesat-large" who will be selected at the State Conventions. So, in voting at the Presidential Primary the important step is to designate your choice of a Presidential Candida te-or, if you prefer, put your cross in the "uncommitted" square In this way your vote will become a part of the overall popular vote that will determine the make-up of our State delegations to the National Convention After your presidential preference is indicated on the ballot, then vote for any of those running for delegates to the county convention that you know or prefer, even though they have indicated a preference for a presidential candidate other than the one you, yourself selected. All primary elections are important and too often neglected by the voters We hope that tins Presidential Primary will be an ex­ ception to the rule and will attract a satisfactory percentage of qualified electors.

Kick The Hobitl t"—-— r—Voice —i I--------------- OF THE PEOPLE —* To the Editor: * A bill before the Senate, in­ troduced by Senator James Gray D-Warren. hits me as rather humorous. The bill would allow the State to "transfer" teachers around the State any time-any place I wondered if this might be a solution to busing. Bus teachers instead of children, making “equal" education for all—if you can buy that! Also, my opinion about the Womens Lib movement, for what its worth, would be to advise the Libb-ers to Liberate themselves and to leave the other millions alone! I for one don’t want to be liberated to work on roads or dig ditches, etc., etc., etc. , I want to stay in my house and control my own family and my own destiny. This bill has got to be defeated-this is no joke! A few, millions I think, of us homemakers like homemaking and reject the thoughts of the "liberty" this bill could very well afford. It may well be time for the Mothers of America to March-to put Moms back in the home! Plus the additional burden and privilege of teaching our daughters to be loving wives and good Mothers and to save our Country-Maybe! Hazel Meek To the Editor: In the primary election coming up, the people of Michigan have the opportunity of voting on legalizing the lottery I am op­ posed to this measure on Christian, moral and economical grounds The legislators have told us that by passing this law, we will by no means be legalizing gambling—one legislator could not see this coming for at least 10 years Everyone knows what organized crime has done and is doing in the states of New Jersey, New York and Nevada. Even Detroit is a headquarters for one of the families of LaCosaNostra Legalizing the lotterv is just inviting these people in to start full Scale operations. The state will have to spend thousands of our tax dollars just to set the lottery in motion. If you look at past history of other states, it shows that revenue brought tn from it never gets spent for what it was supposed to go for. It somehow gets lost between governmental bureaucracy and the corrupt people it produces. Besides this, the people who will buy the lottery tickets are the ones who really can’t afford them. It will be taking money that should be spent on food and clothing for their families. Completing this vicious circle, and adding to the recession The Ittfil reason for passing the lottery, our legislators tell us, is to lower our taxes. Witness California. Thev passed the lottery a couple of years ago. The taxes of the average person have dropped from 1130.00 to 9119.00 a year. That’s some argument! It’s too bad our fine legislators couldn't have put something like property tax reform on the ballot instead of trying to push this over I, for one. will vote NO on the lottery issue I encourage you to 8180 -Diane Barnum A ORANDMOTHRR IS -A grAndmolMv I* • IMy •*'<’ children ot her own to she Hkn other people's IltHe qVK, A gr*nd«ether it a man grandmother Ha gon for walks with the boys. and they talk about tithing and fracton and like that. •Grandma* don't hava to do anything except be there They're old, to the shouldn't play hard or run.

Contributed To the Editor: Once more it is that time when we select members for our Lakewood board of education. With the problems we have in this area, both educationally and financially, there should be a number of candidates seeking this position. Certainly the female segment of our area are lax in not insisting on more representation on this board. Or are they too involved in destructive critiscism to become active candidates for the Board of Education9 The time is short: Get busy girls A Taxpayer, Carl A. Brod beck To the Editor: I was pleased to read The Banner's editorial stand on the so-called State lottery proposition to appear on the May 16 ballot. Probably we should also be made aware that the issue will not appear simply as the people’s authorization for a State lottery. Rather, It will appear as a REPEAL of the constitutional ban against lotteries. This little twist has a special meaning when we know the courts' definition of "lottery’’. It really means opening the State to gambling in ANY form the Legislature chooses to sanction at any time in the future. A resoultion to limit the proposed amendment to only a staterun lottery was defeated All by itself that fact should be sufficient to put us on guard. While I don’t presume that »le’s personal, at-home vices virtues should be legislated for or against, it does strike me that the State would be wrong to become a party to so blatantly a something-for-nothing philosophy Economically the idea is full of holes. Practically no goods or services are pur­ chased by the movement of money into the hands of a few people. New Jersey businessmen have learned that when the track opens, trade declines The real winners, who operate the gambling set-ups accumulate vast sums of money they haven’t worked for to invest in either competing business or in fronts for activities the State never intended to legalize. In addition lotteries are a disguised form of taxation of the most inefficient type. 70 cents of every dollar collected on New Jersey's sweepstakes goes for expense of collecting. legalized gambling for profit to the State is pie-in-the-sky and a big tummy-ache to all of us sooner or later. Sincerely, Mrs 6. W. Plumb 3814 Heights Dr. Hickorv Corners, Mi 49060 An interesting and good Letter to the Editor appeared on the front page of the May 4th Charlotte Republican-Tribune. It was from a Hasting’s resident and for that reason is reprinted here: Mr Editor Enclosed is a contribution for MY DAO By Mrs Maxine Laker Coleman He was a big man, lusty, and rough, marked by an ora when men must be fought With energy boundless, ambition and vim... An excess of vigor al every new whim I He walked like he owned every inch of the earth, and his lave was enough to encircle It's girth? The sun was his master and work was his toy,., with the heart of a gypsy, and the grin of a boy He charmed those he valued and cursed all the rest.

Three quarter* a century look out through his eyes the band members’ trip to Europe. We’d like to make this contribution in honor of our father, Mr. Estell E. Griest, who is still a Charlotte resident. As some of Charlotte’s older citizens will recall, Eatel Griest had the honor of being drum major for the Charlotte Band when it was under the direction of Mr. Saltonstall and was just four years old. Mr. Grieat perfected his trick of throwing his baton over the goal post, which in 1929 was quite an accomplished feat. Mr. Griest has had two daughters in the band when it was imder the direction of Mr. Robert Powell. As our father is interested in the local band and the youth of today, I fed this contribution to be a small token for the pleasure he has gotten from the local band. Hoping this in ■ small way will help your local band on their European trip.

Now hear some of our would-be Presidents. First, the former "front-runner,” Senator Muskie. Six years ago, he stated: "We believe that containment of expansionist Communism regret­ tably involves direct confrontation from time to time. . .and that to retreat from it is to undermine the prospects for peace and stability.” There will be no "peace and stability” if the United States fails to respond to the challenge of the North Vietnamese naked invasion of the South. Yet, today, Mr. Muskie charges that the President’s ac­ tions to resist that aggression "undermines America’s sense of decency." Six years ago. Senator McGovern supported a defense appropriation with the statement: "My vote reflects my conviction that we must protect the men we have sent into battle no matter how we might question the policy that sent them to that battlefield." Senator McGovern’s convictions seem subject to seasonal ad­ justment. For when the President employed American ah* and sea ftower to stem the invasion that directly threatens 85.000 remaining American support troops. Senator McGovern suffered an acute at­ tack of political rhetoric. He charged that: "the President has descended to a new level of barbarism and foolhardiness." (Imagine what the Washington Post would have said about me. had I called a Democratic President a barbarian and a fool!> Six years ago. Senator Edward Kennedy called our commitment to the self-determination of the South V ietnamese people "fundamental and sound ” Today, he denounces the President for seeking an honorable avenue out of a war his own brother supported with 1S.W0 military advisors—and charges the President with precipitating "this incredible new bloodbath." and "whipping the Nation into a new war frenzy." "How much longer." says Senator Kennedy, "will we contribute to a bloodbath for the sake of a void big a highly speculative bloodbath of the future?" . • Less than five years ago- Vice President Hubert Humphrey—be of the "great adventure." was besting the war drums for the American people. Today, Mr. Humphrey decries the President’s actions to defend freedom in South Vietnam against the very same militant aggresaive Asian Communism that so concerned him five years ago. He knows perfectly well that this latest massive invasion ri South Vietnam is a blatant violation of the Geneva Agreement of IM4 and the bombing halt understanding of 1M8. 1 would suggest that the timing of the attacks by these Senators and the selectlveness of the moral indignation broke upon the Northern provinces, when the South Vietnamese were pulling bock from their forward fire bases in the wake of the greatest artillery barrage of the war. when rocket and mortar rounds were callously lobbed into the cities—you did not hear these outraged condemnations of beating up the war. There were no Senate resolutions condemning Hanoi for its ambitious military escapade—or even raising questions concerning the rule of certain outside powers in supporting the escalation No, these acts were greeted with silence. The war critics were silent as church mice. The outrage only became audible when the South Vietnamese held, when American air and naval power were employed to help smash the sneak attacks. Then came the cries of "bloodshed." President Nixon has consistently stated that be will do everything be must to protect American forces remaining in South Vietnam, assure no Interruption of the withdrawal schedule, and provide South Vietnam with the chance to defend Itself against an invader equipped by outside powers with the most sophisticated offensive weaponry. This is no new policy, nor is it at all Inconsistent with the President s plan to end American involvement In the Vietnamese war. If ever there was a time when an American President needed the support of all Americans, It Is now. North Vietnam’s invasion makes dear how desperate the enemy has become. If we hold flrm, we may be able to complete our withdrawal and finally get our prisoners bock—and we may be able to do so with the liberty and future of the South Vietnamese people Intact.

IMckbiion Education is most relevant for 25 Lakewood boys enrolled in the Building and Trades class taught by Stere Barnum'. For them their education for the past several months hAs been the construction of a three bedroom ranch style home on 817 Washington Boulevard, in Lake Odessa In fact they did their work so well that the $24,000 home was sdd a couple of weeks ago to the Dale McDiarmid’s of Sunfield even though their work still needs some finishing touches. They have yet to finish the concrete slab leading to the two stall garage, hare yet to do a little landscaping on the front lawn and put the brick facing on across the front of the building The boys aren’t worried for they are confident that all will be finished in time for the Open House scheduled for May 19. 20. and 21. • The boys have reason to be proud of their work. “They did everything but pour the walla, the plastering, and lay the carpet,” Barnum said. "They did their own wiring, plumbing, flat concrete work, heating, rough carpentry and finish carpentry." The boys were divided into teams with each team respon sible for a room. "When each room is done, the team really feels that they have accomplished . something,” Barnum offered. The house comes with a built in kitchen trimmed in burnt oak "The interior decor follows a gold and brown color scheme.,, Barnum explained, “In the dining and family room the boys out on rough sawn wain- Soloists Express Vocal / Talents At TK By Debbie Wieringa • A special program for the' "Post 60 club” was given April 25 in the* High School Auditorium.

J proval for the. bond loan MlddlevIHe ■ T»S-K!I3 Editorials By Tom Elllnger and Tim Me Danough Should girls be allowed to participate in boys' athletics at the high school level? To ua this is a debatable question. We teel that girls should not be allowed In boys’ sports tor the tollowing reasons. Girls have their own full schedule of sport activities in which they may participate, at least in our school they do, and it the girls are allowed to participate in boys' sports, then, logically ooys should be allowed to participate in girls' sports. This action would simply cause the girls to lose a majority ot sports activities, because ot boys taking over the eri's sports. For instance, in isketball you must agree that the co-ordination, strength, and general knowledge ot the game which most boys possess is certainly greater than that which the girls possess Therefore, the play before the girls. Certainly there are some sports which girls would dominate in, (e.g., acrobatics), but there are few. We feel girls overall should stay to their own sports and leave the boys’ sports to the boys. "Never send a girl to do a boy’s fob" is one of our mottos and we feel that the recent Federal court order is interfering with this motto. However, we also feel that the wise minds in the Michigan Supreme Court will overrule this Federal court decision and will bring about harmony once again. By Rod Cool Girls should have the same right as boys when it comes to sports. It doesn *t hurt girls to do a little rough playing or work. They had to work just as hard as the men in the olden days just to make a living. I think girls should Nixon's Continuance of War Does any one remember the last presidential election cam­ paign? As I recall, a certain man said be had a plan to get us out of Viet Nam. He sounded very sure of himself, but the only problem was that he didn’t say what his plan was. Four years later this same man is still saying we are going to get out of Viet Nam, but now we’re doing it, gradually. In the meantime, back at the war, American soldiers are still dying. On television a few nights ago President Nixon gave a speech saying that he is now escalating the war. He has continued the bombing of North Viet Nam and more people are being shot and killed.

Hastings has had many fine gentlemen on the high school athletic staff, but none was any greater than Bruce Withers, who established a fine record as the Saxon tennis mentor from the ®ng of 1949 (the first year »had tennis after World War ID, thru the Spring of 1961. Coach Withers, who died from leukemia Saturday. May 6. at Munson Hospital in Traverse City, had such seasons as 35 victories to one loss in the West Central Conference in 1959, regional championships and players doing a great job in the final State tournaments. Coach Withers had' a per­ suasive forcefulness that reached young men. We know of one boy who got the message while in junior high. One day Coach Withers watched him play, and said: “I don’t want to see you up here with anything but a tennis racket next Spring.” This bit of attention took hold, and the voung man played four years of high school tennis (three for Saxon Thinclads Post Victories . Bruce) and three yean of vanity tennis at Michigan State University, and was captain his senior year at East Lansing. Coaches do have a great In­ fluence over boys, and Coach Withers' was of the best.

This is a big im­ provement. Now if every body would just stop littering it would continue to look nice. Everyone should do their part by holding that litter until they get to a barrel and not toss it out the window. The Scouts are planning a paper drive for the future but no date has been set. Birthday greetings go to Betty Sible, Doris Flessner, Jimmy VanderWerf, Marjorie Erickson, Darrell Black, Deana Black, and Kent Blair. Mr. and Mrs. Leander Peacock are celebrating their wedding anniversary. Happy, Birthday and Congratulations! The Woodland firemen has been kept busy. They assisted Lake Odessa at the Steven Karrar family, fought a grass fire on Woodland Road and fought a bam fire at the Don Haskin farm. When Don put the tractor in the bam and removed the pas cap, the gas sprayed out, setting the bam on fire. He was burned but is very lucky that it was not worse. The firemen answered the call but were unable to save any of the bam or pigs. Black smoke could be seen for several miles. The communitv was shocked and saddened Friday when word of two deaths was received. Jay, 21, son of Mr. and Mrs. Jones was killed in a car accident. Mrs. Jones and her brother, Gerald Callans, have recently taken over Browns Discount Store. The Jones family plan on moving into the upstairs apartment at the end of the school year. Jay was planning on being married this summer. The other death was that of Deen Michael, baby son of Mr. and Mrs. Darwin Mc­ Clelland. He died unexpectedly at the doctor’s office. Our sympathy is extended to both of these families. Mrs. Darwin Mc­ Clelland Sr. had been under the doctors care and is now a patient at the Osteopathic Hospital in Grand Rapids. A wedding of interest to Woodland resident took place Saturday, April 29, in Battle Creek. Mike, son of Mr. and Mrs Clifford Mattson, and Tina Hatt were married at the redemption Lutheran Church. Our congratulations go out to this happy couple. The Alumni Executive Board has completed plans for the 1972 Banquet to be held May 27 at the Woodland School. Captain Ronald Offley, 59, will be the guest speaker. Ron and his family recently returned from Spain where he was stationed in the Air Force.

Planting continues to lag way behind 1971. and less than 20 percent of the intended acreage of oats was planted compared with about two-thirds at the same time last year Winter wheat has started to grow in southern Michigan, but there was considerable injury to wheat from ice standing on .fields. Pastures here nave greened up and started growth, but are furnishing less than usual amounts of feed for this date. Cool temperatures slowed fruit bud development*, but they were really breaking out here last week. Fruit buds In the extreme southwest Michigan had reached the pre-pink stage.

If one of-the cows .Ln your dairy herd has cancer of the lymphatic system there is no danger to you or your family, says Dr. Gabel H. Conner, Michigan State University veterinary scientist. In the past, some scientists have suggested a possible link between cancer in man and cancer in animals, but this hypothesis was based on the theory that various forms of cancer may be caused by viruses and might be communicable. To shed further light on the subject. Dr. Conner conducted a survey of Michigan dairy farms during IMS. “The purpose of the study was to test the hypotheses that human in contact with cases of bovine leukosis are at an increased risk of all cancer, an4or that such Conner. A 19-county area in southeastern Michigan served as the base for the study. Case Farms were those where one or more confirmed cases of bovine leukosis were diagnosed between October 1962 and March 1965. Control Farms were dairy farms of the same size and in the same area that had on incidence of bovine leukosis during the 1962 to 1965 period. Humans “in contact" with dairy animals were considered to be all close family members who lived on survey farms for a total of six months or more from 1961 to 1965. “In contact" people on case farms were classed as high cancer risks. People on control farms were classed as normal cancer risks. When all data had been ob- says Dr SPREAD PRAMITOL Pleise till Farm Bureau Services Inc.

May 18. 1872.......... 35 �Church News Our Problems Need Solutions Based on Inspirated Revelations Community and other problems need solutions based on something far more substantial and inspired than human reasoning alone, John Richard C Kenvon. C.S.B., of London, England, told an audience here on Sunday, April 30th. Divine guidance is needed to cope with the violence In many cities. Mr. Kenyon maintained. Speaking in the Hastings High School Lecture Hall under the auspices of First Church of Christ, Scientist of Hastings, Mr. Kenyon said: "AU of us have deep yearning for peace none, perhaps, more than those who nave experienced war What are you and I doing about it?" A member of The Christian Science Board of Lectureship. Mr Kenvon served as a major in the British Army during world War II. He was' introduced b* Mrs LeRoy H Bradley. First Reader of the local Christian Science Church "One very important thing we must do." the lecturer said, ,ris to face up to evils fairly and squarely. But facing up to evil really means clearly identifying it for what it is. In the New Testament. Paul refers to the carnal mind and he describes it as enmith against god." The intelligent guidance needed to face up to and over­ come evils in the community or elsewhere has its source in God. infinite divine Mind. Mr. Kenyon maintained. "We respond to God’s guidance most readily," he said, "when we understand that behind this guidance there is divine law." Explaining why this guidance is available to everybody, Mr. Kenyon said: "Infinite Mind is always controlling and governing its universe of ideas And man, in his true nature as the highest idea of Mind, is always able to hear the direction of this Mind, God." Mr. Kenyon emphasized that "the guidance of infinite Mind comes to us backed with all the power of eternal divine law." In closing he emphasized that through prayer everyone can enjoy the guidance which con­ tributes to the solution of com­ munity and other problems "Divine guidance," be declared, "is available to solve, not only the problems of the in­ dividual, but also the problems of our communties and to bring peace to the world."

Block Asks Tax Preparatios Regulations “I stronglv recommend regulation for the tax preparation industry that will minimize, if not completely halt, abuses within the industry," said Iva Strimback local manager for H A R Block, America's largest tax preparation service. “The findings of the Internal Revenue Service's crackdown during this past filing season on fraudulent tax returns are ap­ palling." Mrs. SCrimback Baid. "Government regulations must be enacted to set up standards of competence and ethics for tax preparers, and set minimum standards of financial stability for tax preparers or preparation firms," she continued. "Specifically, I was pleased to see that the president of our Company assumed the leading role during an appearance last week before a Congressional subcommittee in Washington, DC., as he recommended a system of registration for all tax preparers wno prepare income tax returns for a fee. I un­ derstand that the national organization of Public Ac­ countants, other professional groups, as well as many congressional leaders have endorsed our stand. "H & R Block has always felt that the' best system of taxation must, by its nature, be somewhat complex in order to be equitable for all taxpayers. Persons seeking help with their tax returns should be able to rely with confidence upon the lax preparation industry. “Every year H A R Block conducts a tax coarse consisting of 72 hoars of classroom in­ straction. Many of the graduates are selected for further training and possible employment with 11 A R Block. Even with the ad­ ditional instruction, many hoars of on-the-job training are given to the employee prior to actually preparing returns for clients. “H & R Block charges solely on the basis of the complexity of the return, not on the income or refund involved.” "Unfortunately, there are other tax preparers and preparation firms that have not followed the example H A R Block has set with its training and high standards of service,” added Strimback. "That’s why government regulation is now needed for the entire tax preparation industry.” State Bank No. 11 CMMUdaled Report of Condition of “THE HASTINGS CITY BANK** of HASTINGS, BARRY COUNTY, MICHIGAN 49658, and DOMESTIC SUBSIDIARIES at the ctooe of bmiaese on April 18, 1872.

According to the report, Mr. Thomas was hired and had gone to work at 11 a.m. that morning. James Stiffler, the mill for­ man, said he had been with Mr. Thomas only minutes before the accident. Stiffler left him by the oiler and went upstairs to have a debarker machine shut down. He came right back down the stairs and heard the band mill machine making an odd noise. He went back up to turn it off. and when he went back down he didn’t know what had happened, but shut off • the conveyor. He found Mr. Thomas lying under the lower stairs at the bottom of the band mill. Mr. Thomas suffered multipie injuries. ’ Stiffler said he didn’t know why Mr. Thomas was even near the Receives Savings Bond—Tess Panfil, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Panfil of 983 S.

C.----------------------------Well ahead of schedule, the State Street Parking Mall is operational though not complete Lines marking the stalls are temporary, since the street is to be resurfaced this summer—after which the’ permanent lines will be made. The additional parking meters needed will soon be in place and overhead electric stop lights installed. ’ However, the Mall is in use a*nd the lOh-foot-wide lanes should provide plenty of width for easy 90-ftegree parking. If cars are parked properly toward the center of each stall, there is plenty of room on either side to open car doors witheul fear of hitting the side or open door of a neighboring car. . A preliminary—and by no means complete- sampling of opinion, indicates that the' Mall is popular and a convenience for shoppers A survey up and down the street, soon after the Mall was in operation, indicated that a great majority of drivers found 90-degrec parking Jo be no problem. Yet. even when the angle pattern was used, there were always a few drivers who ignored the guide lines and ended up imperfectly parked. , With the Mall in operation. State Street between Church Street and Michigan Avenue, becomes primarily a parking area and no longer part of a through street. This, we believe, will benefit Hastings andmakJ it a more attractive and convenient place in which to trade. However, the opening of the Mall, is merely the first step in revitalizirtstthe central business district This should be a continuing project aqn the merchants who were united in advocacy of the Mall will, we believe, find it an advantage, both to themselves and the city, to give careful consideration to practical and worthwhile projects designed to improve the attractiveness and convenience of the State Street area In our opinion, the crime increases that developed to alarming proportions in the 1960’s and have carried over into the 70s, began in the 1950s when the Warren Court decided to get into the business of drawing First Amendment guidelines, turning the nation in direc­ tions never envisaged by the members of the Constitutional Con­ vention who wrote that historic document. The excesses of the Warren Court caused Justice Robert H. Jackson to warn, "If the Court does not temper its doctrinaire logic with a little practical wisdom, it will convert the Constitutional Bill of Rights into a suicide pact." Commencing in 1956. the Warren Court by a variety of technical grounds and numerous 5 to 4 decisions, voided most of the laws that Congress and the states had devised against deliberate extremist subversion Then in 1956, it adopted a policy of intervening in state prosecutions whenever defendents pleaded that their First Amend­ ment rights were jeopardized This, in effect, opened up a virtual ‘Pandora’s Box" of new troubles and frustrations for local and state law enforcement agencies. As a result of this policy of intervention, the Court in June, 1969, reversed the conviction of a Ku Klux Klansman for televised exhortations against "niggers and Jews," declaring that states may not punish advocacv of force or criminal acts "except where such advocacy is directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action and is likely to incite or producesuchaction. " All this, of course, makes conviction almost impossible For. as one prosecutor observed, "It seems I cannot convict a man from urging people to bomb police stations unless he says which police station and what time. ’ At a televised Black Panther press conference in Philadelphia, a black militant announced that'Any black person who inflicts death on any police officer in the black community is clearly carrying out an act of justifiable homicide." Within three days of this in­ flammatory oufpburing of hate, a policeman was snot dead by a couple of black tanagers who admitted that they were out to get "one of those punk copA" The boys, of course, were open to prosecution but what about the inciters? There was no case that would stand up in court, the prosecutor ruled because “we can’t prove that the boys responded toanyspecific incitement" and according to the Supreme Court s decision, it is useless to prosecute for incitement unless violence actually and (firectly follows one provable instance of in­ citement. So, at the very time when Supreme Court rulings have placed formidable road blocks in the path of law enforcement agencies charged with protecting the public interest, two 20th Century developments have placed powerful new weapons at the disposal of those intent on taking advantage of relaxed laws for the purpose of fomenting violence and revolution. Television afid electronic broadcasting and rapid air transportation It was Lenin who first advocated use of sustained mass-media campaigns of hate propaganda to fan every spark of public discontent into explosions of street violence. Lenin, of course, had the advantage of a controlled media But modern advocates of violence do not .need this sort of control to get results. Today’s professional agitator uses a bullhorn to collect crowds and attract Ta’ cameras and reporters who find here a type of violent action that livens up TV news broadcasts and provides black headlines for news editions. Revolutionists on the scene today do not have to control the media to get results, all they have to do is proride violent action As Jules Monnerot observed: "Men administering obsessive verba) bombardments in massive doses can turn whole crowds into lions." It is not only the "ignorant masses" who can be manipulated in this manner Agitators have had equally good luck on campuses throughout the nation where "intelligence and idealism" is supposed to—and mostly does—prevail. For example, it is known that agitators, well trained in ways to fan discontent into open violence were behind the tragic sequence of events at Kent State which resulted in loss of life and destruction of property. Yet, this hard core group was nowhere in sight when the shooting began Their purpose being achieved, they quietly withdrew Professional criminals and advocates of violence have been quick to take advantage of the loopholes opened by Warren Court decisions—and they are the main beneficiaries from this relaxed legal attitude ' Although George Washington was neither a lawyer nor a jurist, he admonished his fellow countrymen “to distinguish between op­ pression and the necessary exercise of lawful authority," if they were to enjoy democracy under their new Constitution That is sound advice for us today. The Courts—especially the Warren Court—have failed to make this distinction. In a single­ minded drive to sidestep ’ oppression” they have failed to give legal sanction to the exercise of that degree of "lawful authority" needed for society to protect itself against destructive forces boring from within. But. now that extremes in the direction of leniency have been reached. w-e believe that the pendulum will begin to swing back toward center once again because there is actually no other direction in which to go. 4 ...

Daisy Johnson R2 To the Editor: Lately I’ve heard a lot ot criticism about our space program and exploration of the moon. It has been stated that while we are spending billions of dollars on this program, thousands of our fellow countrymen are dying from malnutrition and disease All this may be, and no doubt is, true, but this matter must be explored from another angle as What would hapen if the space program was to be shut down? Thousands of highly skilled persons would be out of work which would more than likely create more poverty and more government expenditure on welfare Look what happened when the SST program was discontinued. Thousands of highly trained, highly skilled technical personnel found themselves suddenly jobless, and suddenly very dependent upon the small bi-weekly allotments from the government commonly known as unemployment. It has been stated that we shall never be able to live on the moon. Right now it seems doubtful, but so did exploring the moon 20 years ago. Scientists, technologists, and geologists and working constantly trying to devise a way to survive on the moon’s surface for great periods of time, and this may be an an­ swer to our overpopulation problem. If our government would spend even half the amount of money of domestic problems as they spend on aid to foreign countries and the Vietnam war each year, the problems of poverty, pollution, starvation, disease, unem­ ployment and overpopulation might draw quickly to an end. D Conger Freeport, Michigan To the Editor: I believe our City Fathers and the Hastings Chamber of Com merce really pulled a dumb bummer this time. Ninety degree parking on main street is almost impossible. I wonder how many of them have tried it? Traffic has to stop in both directions and the driver pulling in or out still can't see. The nickel or dime we save on parking meters, isn’t going to do much good when it comes to paying off insurance claims. I’Ve shopped in Hastings for ov* 20 yean and thought when the street was widened and parallel parking put in was one of the best things that had been done Where, oh where, has common sense gone? Our tax dollar is used for many unsound judgments but this has reallv topped them all. A Taxpayer To the Editor: What did the city of Hastings do? Did they make a contract with - the body shops of the Hastings Area? This is what the new parking system looks like as you can’t get out of the 90 degree parking spaces very easy and you have to back up too far to be able to see if another car is coming or not.

Hastings, Townships Join to Continue Ambulance Service After County Contract Expires The problem of providing ambulance service for Hastings and at least five surrounding townships was scheduled to be solved Monday night with the signing of contracts with Central Ambulance Io continue the service. Friday at a special meeting the City Council authorized Mayor Cedric S. Morey and City Clerk Donna Kinney to sign a contract with Central Ambulance for the service after the contract with Barry County expires. At a long meeting Wednesday night. May 10, the City of. Hastings and the townships of Rutland, Woodland, Carlton, Baltimore and Hastings agreed to enter into a year’s contract. Irving Township officials also expressed interest in affiliating with the plan. Hastings and five townships have a combined population total of 15.558. On that basis the county’s $25,000 emergency ambulance fund created to assist with ambulance service for the just before Christmas was much more ideal than what we now have. The parking meters recently installed won't have to be moved to have the 45 degree parking returned and I am only one of the many people that would rather have the 45 degree parking back again The 90 degree parking can only cause more accidents and therefore should be changed. A Disturbed Driver Bomb Scare Sends Students Home Friday rest of this year will yield $10,112 and the local units of government will furnish $24,114 toward the total $34,227 contract. Prosecuting Attorney David Dimmers has already prepared contracts between the townships and city which will be signed with the county to comply with State statutes in obtaining the county’s 1972 contribution. The new contract will also mean a slight increase for users of the service. The rate will in­ crease $5 to $35 per run plus $1 per mile. County Commissioner Monty Bennett and Ken Radant said after the five-hour May 10 session, which hammered out agreement, that the tentative solution should be a great relief to citizens who had been con­ fronted with the possibility of losing ambulance service after May 31st. They pointed out that negotiations must still continue for a long-term ambulance solution. Central Ambulance had an­ nounced that service would be terminated at the conclusion of the present contract. However the new agreement will basically continue the same type of ser­ vice. with Central Ambulance supplying equipment, personnel and ancillary services and supplies necessary to the operation of the service, guaranteeing one ready crew and vehicle, using two full-time employees for the daytime, weekday crew and the availability of a second vehicle but without a ready crew.

Consequently, every new Impala and Chevelle has a front seat \ belt reminder system that speaks up if you try to start out before buckling. A buzzer buzzes and a light flashes to make sure you get the message. And that’s just one of many pro­ tective features now being built into these cars. f’ 1 V* Fool their muscles. Out on the road, it’s reassuring to realize you’re riding in a car that’s well built. What you get with an Impala or Chevelle is a body that’s an all-welded steel superstructure, painstakingly put together. In other words, a Body by Fisher. You get a sturdy steel guard beam in every door for added protection in case of side impact. You get a steel cargo guard that walls off the pas­ senger compart­ ment from the trunk and helps keep everything in its place. You get double steel panels in the doors, in the hood, in the deck lid. Up inside the fenders: inner fen­ ders to protect against corrosion and kicked-up stones. What you get, in both of these pop­ ular cars, is a lot of built-in strength and durability. Good things to have along as you travel. Lot's talk camfort. Another reason why Chevelle and Impala are the top cars in their fields is their comfort. I mpala is one of the room­ iest cars around. And Chevelle, though slightly smaller, gives you room for six. Plus plenty of baggage. But comfort is more than just room. So at all four wheels we’ve put big coil springs to gentle up your ride. And between the body and the frame we’ve placed a network of little rubber cushions to help keep things quiet inside.

If you’ve ever considered owning a Cadillac, or even if you haven’t, there are some especially good reasons for considering it right now. For one, consider what Cadillac can mean to your vacation plans. It affords a degree of comfort, spaciousness and elegance that pan help turn long, tedious trips into truly pleasurable ones. Consider, too. the variety of Cadillac models currently offered. From the beautiful Coupe deVille shown above to the elegant Eldorado Coupe and Convertible, there are nine great cars. And right now. your authonzed Cadillac dealer can probably supply just the model you want just the way you want it. Perhaps the most decisive reason, though, for buying a Cadillac now is the most practi­ cal one-the move to Cadillac ownership is especially easy at this time. Because of this, and because Cadillac’s resale value is traditionally the highest in the land, buying a Cadillac now is an especially attractive investment. So visit your authorized dealer soon. It's a great time for it. THE GREAT CAR PRESENTS THE GREAT RACES: THE PREAKNESS, MAY 20. AND THE BELMONT STAKES. JUNE 10. ON CBS-TV. THE HASTINGS BANNER.........

Western Michigan Graduate Takes Position in Juvenile Court "I want to help people, and this is one of the best ways that 1 know,” Miss Ann DeGrand, 22, said when she assumed her position as a Barry County juvenile officer with the Probate Court. Miss DeGrand, a native of Escanaba in Michigan's great Upper Peninsula, on May I succeeded Ardith Hall who is now on the staff of the Barry County Friend of the Court. This is Miss DeGrand's first position as she was graduated from Western Michigan University in April with a degree in sociology. "I appreciate this position, and it is very’ interesting,” the 5 foot, 3 inch, 110 pound young woman declared She has always been interested in helping people, and has been very active in many endeavors. Miss DeGrand, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ray DeGrand of Escanaba, was graduated from the senior high school there in 1968. While in high school she was a member of the band, chorus, Future Teachers Club, the honorary Mortar Board, and other organizations. She attended Bay de Noc Junior College for two years before transferring to Western. S«cr«tary of State, Richard Austin Our Al is a pro . . !

May 17. 1972........... 13 | �* I I ' Expect Commissioners to Carve Up Temporary Budget by October [tarry County Commissioners recently adopted a temporary budget for fiscal year 1973 totaling $1,464,185.00. the budget reflects an increase in ex­ penditures of 1316.000 over the current county operating budget of 11.146,000.00. Adoption of the budget is nothing more than a govern­ mental formality and taxpayers can expect to see a great deal of craving done before a final budget is adopted in October Purpose of a temporary budget is to provide commissioners with an idea of possible expenses and revenue for the ensuing year. Finance authorities say the county would need at least seven mills on 1165,000,000 of State equalised valuation to raise $1,154,185 00 in taxes to balance the “temporary budget.'* (The county is currently spreading 5.87 mills on 1142,000,000 of state equalized valuation.) Finance experts realize that the county has a slim chance of convincing allocation board members the need for seven mills. Therefore, finance people are looking around for ways to trim the excess fat from the "temporary budget." But the problem isn't all that easy Finance committee members find themselves caught in a cross-fire between em­ ployees demanding more in wages and fringe benefits and taxpayers who arc not eager to foot the bill. Complicating the financial picture is the fact that because of the over all economic situation, authorities estimate a zero balance for this operating year, and estimated county receipts for next year at $200,000 and return of state income tax monies of 1110,000. As a result, the only alternative finance people have is to en­ courage curtailment of spending activity by all departments and hope it doesn’t impair services. The county is currently spending at the rate of $100,000 a month to provide services to its citizens. If by chance the BAN 103 W.

Perfecto* or Blunts "temporary budget" is adopted as a permanent budget for next year, the monthly expenses would go up by approximately $13,000 Biggest spending of funds is in the law enforcement and judicial areas, where more than a half million dollars of next year’s budgetary requests are for the sheriffs department, and >il, court system, and prosecuting attorney. Finance authorities are con­ cerned about the Medical Facility financial picture. This year the facility asked for $15,000 in county money to help balance their budget, and next year they say they will need $60,000. The concern, is how long liefore commissioners will have to ask taxpayers to provide extra-voted millage to operate the plant. To date,commissioners have been successful in keeping expenses in check with revenue Another area of concern is fixed expenses, such as O.A.S.I., retirement and hospital in­ surance for employees, and maintainence, utilities and in­ surance on county property With each business year, these expenses climb With the receipt of the shopping requests by each department, it is reasonable to assume that between now and the time a permanent budget is adopted in October, all department heads will be out "courting4’ the finance committee in hopes of gaining more dollars for their programs, plus more in wages for their employees. r As for the finance committee, they can be expected to "walk softly and carry a big stick,’* listening intently and checking revenue against expenses, and promising nothing Penalize Drivers in Barry County District Conrl Dan M Slocum, 22. pleaded guilty to driving under the in­ fluence of liquor when he was arraigned Monday, May e. before District Judge Joseph Bauer.

The plan, presented at the Tuesday. May 10. board meeting by Bill Jerow, ultimately will call for the expenditure of well over $100,000 (not counting a swimming pool), but the cost can be spread over a long period—but not too long, we hope. Jerow. long a big booster for all good things, headed a committee which spent some two years studying the needs. The suggestions include No. 1 priority, new bleachers on the football field. Bill said if we can’t have new bleachers for next Fall, we at least need a thorough in­ spection to prevent serious ac­ cidents by having the present seats give way. Other suggestions: Nr. 2: Level the area behind the high school for physical education purposes. No. 3: Add three new tennis courts. Tennis is increasing in popularity, and the West Central now has seven matches in each dual No. 4: Level the lower field and remove excess trees. No. 5. Relocate the practice football Helds and install fences to facilitate crowd control. No. •: Swimming pool (long range > No. 7: All weather track After making his recom­ mendations. Jerow asked that his committee be discharged and that a new committee with dif­ ferent personnel be appointed to raise the funds necessary to complete the projects. Knowing that the committee’s recommendations were to be made. HHS Mayor Dennis Arm­ strong was on hand at Pleasantview to present the school with $1,000 from the Student Council to add to the Johnson Field Fund, which already had $2,500. The school board has authorized a 25-cent increase for all adult tickets to varsity foot­ ball, basketball and wrestling events, with the extra two bits to be earmarked for the im­ provement fund. The board also approved a 50-cent charge for adults for spectator sports currently- without a gate charge This will be earmarked to defray operating costs of junior high, freshmen and girls basketball, and 9th grade football. Trustees also approved a 50­ cent hike *in adult operetta tickets, and the money will be earmarked for capital im­ provements for the vocal and instrumental music programs. Hastings High's track and field team, while not setting any ovals on fin*, showed considerable improvement over the 1971 record and Coach Tom Allshouse reports that next year's results should be better after this year's rebuilding program. Freshman Don Sweet won the mile here Wednesday. May 10. in the final dual meet with Ionia in 5:00.5. and has improved enough to mm his letter. Coach Allshouse said several other frosh will be ear­ ning letters Charlotte's on lop in the West Central dual standings unbeaten in the six outings. Laming Waverly is 5-1. Grand Ledge 4-2. Alma 3-3.

The following editorial tribute to Bruce Withers, 52. former Hastings High industrial arts teacher and tennis coach, who died at 8:30 p.m. Saturday, May 6. of leukemia in Munson Hospital in Traverse City. was published in the Charlevoix Currier on May 9 Bruce's many former students and tennis players, and other friends, will appreciate reading it: It was typical of Bruce Withers that he went fishing in Grand Traverse Bay last Wednesday morning before he entered the hospital for the last time. His appearance at the last session of the Charelvoix City Council April 24 relative to new construction at the A&W restaurant was also in keeping with the "forward thinking" that was Mr. Withers’ hallmark as both an educator and a businessman. For the past two months, Mr. Withers knew that his days were numbered. Leukemia’ was rapidly sapping strength and making it more and more dif­ ficult to perform everyday chores. Although he was forced to drop his teaching duties on doctor's orders, he found plenty to keep him busy and useful until the end, from attending to the family business to fishing with his cronies. Mr Withers died Saturday evening at Munson Medical Center Tn Traverse City. He will be greatly missed by Charlevoixans. particularly the young people who were iritroducea to the business world under his tutelage at the A&W. Although Mr. Withers taught for many years, we think he taught his finest lesson—a lesson in living—during the last two months of his life. It was a lesson that few people who knew him will ever forget.

It’s that in­ tangible quality called "showmanship". In the shoe business we could coin a similar term called "showmanship". It’s a little more practical and definable than showmanship, but it’s basically the same...that is, a feel for the business, a flair if you please. Showmanship, if there be such a word, could further be described as 1) knowing the styles and colors in advance of the season that our customer will like, and 2) by good judgment, feel, and sincerity, to accurately fit our customers so that their sjioes will hr comfortable and wear well, and they will return again and again to our store.

Under the new provisions, young men must register with a draft board or a draft registrar within the period 30 days before to 30 days after their IMh bir­ thday. They must have some official identification when they register, such as birth certificate. Social Security account number card, drivers license, school or college activity card, or credit card. The new registration procedures are designed to make registration more regimrantonented and draft board operations more streamlined. Registration will consist of filling out a registration card. A new registration questionnaire must also be filled out, although the registrant can take the questionnaire with him, or it may be mailed to him. He must return it within 10 days. The new registration questionnaire require* the name* and addresses of three persona outside the registrant's im­ mediate family who will always know his address. The names, relationships, and addresses of al! the registrant's family over age 16 must also be listed. In addition, the form in­ cludes questions inquiring whether the registrant believes he qualifies for a hardship deferment, for status as a con­ scientious objector, for a sur­ viving son exemption, or for other Selective Service defer ments. Finally, every registrant must list a place of permanent residence, as well as a current mailing address. The draft board serving his permanent residence will be the registrant's per­ manent draft board, regarefless of where he registers. Volunteer draft registrars are available at most high schools and public offices in addition to registration service offered at local draft boards. After he has completed the registration card and questionnaire, the registrant will be issued or mailed his registration certificate and his notice of classification staling that he has been placed ad­ ministratively into a new holding classincation. Class 1-H. Practically all new registrants will remain in Class 1-H until after their lottery drawing which will be held early in the calendar year in which they reach age 19. Those who receive low lottery numbers will then be considered for classification out of Class 1-H. Young men become draft eligible, provided they do not receive a deferment or exemp­ tion, during the calendar year in which they reach age 20.

Don Cress, Michigan State ,University entomologist, offers ( these suggestions for (distinguishing termites from ,winged ants. l-Ant wings are of two sites; ,termites have wings of equal ,size. 2~Ants have a narrow •‘waistline;’’ termites are broad ।between the abdomen and thorax. 3-Ants have distinct "elbowed” ‘antennae; termites antennae are segmented. These differences can easily be seen with a small hand lens. Clean-Up For Best Fly Control “Best way to control flies is to clean up the place,” contends Don Cress, Michigan State University entomologist. “Tne only other alternative is to spray so thoroughly it will poison both you and your animals." Cress points out that files can breed almost anywhere there’s filth. And they reproduce at a terrific rate,*' he adds. “Knocking out one maggot saves you a couple thousand potential flies." Cress says farmers should get manure out of barns and onto fields. They should hose down floors regularly, washing as much manure out of the bam as possible. "Good sanitation is especially critical from mid-May to mid­ September," he says. "But even is you’re the best housekeeper in the world, you’ll probably still have to spray, and 5u may still have a few flies. It’s d to eliminate manure and other decaying organic matter from hard-to-clean places." Cress says, any one of several chemicals will control flies. He also notes that the stronger the concentrate, the less it takes to do the job, but the more hazard it presents to the user. “Since any of these spray materials will work.” says Cress, “you might as well just pick them on the basis of availability and price.” ■ He says detailed listings of chemicals and application rates are in “Controlling Insects and Mites in Livestock,” Extension Bulleting E-706, available from the MSU Bulletin Office, Box 231, East Lansing, MI 48823, also at your County Extension Office, 301 S.

May 17. 1972 How about a Summer Theater Program for Hastings Com­ munity? All interested persons junior high age through adultare invited to casting tryouts on Sunday, May 21,3-5, and Monday and Tuesday, May 22-23,7-9 p.m., at Leason Sharpe Memorial Hall. There are 18 roles, for 11 men and 8 women, including minor roles, to be filled. The play selected for first production is a comedy-fantasy. ’•Green Valley” by Frank Wattron. The action of the play concerns the threat of progress against the historic enchanted valley set in California. The valley has been the possession of the Berry family since the gold rush days. Progress, in the form of a dam, and mass production farming threatens the existence of the small farmers settled for many generations in the valley. Only the intercession of the disturbed spirits of departed ancestors, in the form of equipment damage and break down, and an explosion which demolishes the dam, prevents this historic valley from being inundated by rising waters. The play has excellent character parts which will challenge any amateur thespian All the action is not on stage, however, as the production offers much challenge for creative staging Those persons not in­ terested in acting are welcome to sign up for stage crew and business management. With an outdoor setting of gigantic Howers, trees, boulders, and a small rustic cabin, the staging requires the imaginative talents to create an out-door setting indoors In sufficient interest is shown in this first production, which is tentatively set for July 18. 19, 20, other productions may be scheduled during the Summer. Plan to be present on Sunday. May 21, or Monday and Tuesday, May 22 23, to participate in this production (You need to attend only one tryout date.)

What’s wrong with people? They demonstrate crying "peace, peace,” but continue more and njore to destroy, life and liberty, peace and prosperity, time and talent, and even to cemetaries. What's ■ wrong? A. The answer is basic and simple. The cure is precise and sure. 1st. Mankind is basicly wrong at heart because he believes his own ways are right and clean when the fact is his ways are wrong.

Proverbs 16:2a 'There is a way which secmeth right unto a man, but the end therof are the ways of death.'* Proverbs 14:12. “The heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked: who can know it?” Jeremiah 17:9. The cure is precise. “Ye must be born again.” (from above). John 3:7b. ‘‘Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of in­ corruptible, by the Word of God. which liveth and abideth forever.” I Peter 1:23. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by me.” John 14:6. The cure is sure. “Therefore if any man be in Chris’, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." I Corinthians 5:17. Some people deny the existence of The Absolute, ie. God. Some people admit His existence, but deny His revelation to man, ie, the Bible. Some people admit His existence and His revelation but hide their head in the sand of materialism claiming that ignorance is bliss. Some people admit their utter sinfulness, and pray, “Father be merciful to me the sinner and save me for Jesus sake Create in me a clean heart O God, and renew a right spirit within me.” The Bible works whenever properly applied.

Chief of Police Richard Sunior said, to make parking easier. Drivers may back out of the stalls, going either way, but it is illegal to hack into the stalls. Chief Sunior warns. The parking Is metered. Hastings* off street lots now provide free parking, but for a two-hour limit. The lots north of Apple Street provide unlimited parking. There are four-way stops at Church and Jefferson. The new illuminated stop signs have arrived and are to be in­ stalled as soon as possible.

C.-------------------------------It would be easy to blame such violence as the attempted assassination of George Wallace on the angry bitter tone of editorials, cartoons and special articles found frequently today in the news media; the violence featured on TV programs or the divisive effect on Americans of the unpopular war in Viet Nam The facts are. however, that insane violence has been constantly with us and for reasons that follow no set pattern. Abraham Lincoln was killed bya demented actor. John Wilkes Booth under the impression that he was avenging the honor of the defeated Confederacy; James Garfield was shot by a disgruntle office seeker; William McKinley struck down by Leon Czolgosz, an anarchist; no one knows the reason that prompted an assassin to gun down John F Kennedy , the gunman who slew Robert Kennedy, a Jordanian Arab living in this country used this method to get revenge for imagined wrongs sufferd b<his country at the hands of the United States. No one. as yet, knows the reasons that prompted the attempted assassination of George Wallace. All of these gunmen were loners, represefiting no groups or organizations within the United States. The reaction in each case proved that, despite political beliefs, differences in regard to religion and national origin, was overwhelming shock and grief-the normal reaction of a society that, confused though it may be, is, at heart, basically sound and good Let's not wring our hands, don sackcloth and ashes and lose faith tn ourselves and America over a tragic incident that defies exCanation and reason The trouble may be that we have developed the ibit of brooding too deeply over what is wrong with America and not giving sufficient weight to the many, many things that are admirable and right. In our opinion, it is naive to think that a law abolishing the Con­ stitutional right of private citizens to own fire arms would in any way cut down on insane incidents of violence such as the attempted assasingation of Geroge Wallace Warped characters, who indulge in this sort of violence, can always find ways and means of obtaining firearms despite any and all laws that Congress might pass The problem is. not in passing a law, but in adequateenforcement of same There are plenty of laws on the books today for the control of crime and violence, but thanks to recent Supreme Court rulings and opinions handed down by Federal Courts . of Appeal, the process of policing has been made infinitely more difficult and complicated-and without effective policing, laws mean nothing. We have plenty of unenforcible laws on the books right now Let’s not complicate the situation by adding another! In our opinion, the legalizing of lotteries will not help "solve" any of Michigan s financial woes, but instead will open wide a veritable Pandora's Box of new troubles. J.M Lalley, writing in Modern Age, comes forth with the following observation that is especially significant in relation to these mixed up times in which we live: The production and distribution of pornographic materials is said to be just about the fastest growing industry in the United States and its entrepreneurs to be piling up impressive fortunes. Whether this is a cause or only an effect of the pro^rwive erosion of the traditional moral norms and the disappearance of most of the wonted proprieties, would be hard to determine; but there is no doubt that obscenity-which may be defined as anything offensive to civilized sensiblities-is becoming more and more a factor in our literature and art." Historical analogy is a tricky thing to use. Often, unless but­ tressed by careful research, it can boomrang on the one who tossed it into the public forum. Sen Frank Church, for example, recently offered a passage from Charles James Fox. the eminent 18th Centun- English orator and statesman Fox wanted to quickly end a war between England and France that had dragged on for seven years and said so with superb eloquenceas as follows The Right Honorable Chancellor of the Exchequer feels the justice of the remarks. for by traveling back to the commencement of the war, and referring to all the topics and arguments which he has so often and successful} urged to the House, and by which he has drawn them to the support of his measures, he is forced to acknow ledge i‘ at. at the end of a 7-years conflict we are come to a new era in the a ar. at which he thinks it necessary only to press all his former agriments to induce us to persevere . .And without any other argument or security, are we invited, at this new era in the war, to earn It «wi upon principles which, if adopted, may make it eternal." According to Senator Church, the Parliament spurned Fox's advice and two years later was forced to negotiate the Peace of Amiens on terms less favorable to England However, the Senator neglected to tell the full story. When Fox spoke in 1800 and from which speech Sen. Church derived his quote. England and revolutioriary France had been fighting since 1793 and the "new era in the war" to which Fox referred was the rise of Napoleon In the Peace of Amiens. England made large concessions to France Nevertheless, the peace guickly fell apart when it became apparent that Napoleon had still further ambitions and was in no mood to honor the terms of the treaty. As a result, despite English concessions, war persisted until the final defeat of Napoleon at Waterloo in 1815. Only after that did the Congress of Vienna succeed in establishing a peace that prevailed in Europe for a century-broken then by the outbreak of World War I. The nfal truth of this historical sequence is that one-sided con­ cessions are no guarantee of a lasting peace and that agruments can be old and tired without necessarily being wrong. What one can conclude from this is that whether or not. Fox’s speech is good advice in 1972, it was terrible advice in 1800 In our opinion President Nixon took the only honorable course open to him in initiating the new military moves in Vietnam. He and he alone is responsible for the safe withdrawal of American forces still there and for the fate of American priosoners held by Hanoi under conditions that defy all international agreements in regard to the treatment of prisoners Such influential Doves as Fulbright. Humphrey, McGovern and Muskie can advocate a sudden and precipitate withdrawal, leaving the prisoners and any other Americans captured during the with­ drawal to the mercy of Hanoi in the hope that such a gesture of goodwill and confidence on our part will result to our benefit However, it is President Nixon and not the Fulbrights, Hum­ phreys. McGoverns and Muskies, who will be responsible if such an <iptimUtic ( foolishly optimistic, we believe) guess proves to be a dud. Remember, too. that three prisoners of war and the men still serving <■ “the 3Ir, there went at the request of their country. Even though the assign­ ment might not have been popular, they did not play the tu™™*1-,nd seek sanctuary in a neutral country but did their duty as °™cre<). In this respect, let lis not forget that Fulbright, Humphrey, McGovern and Muskie were among those senators who voted favorably in support of the Gulf at Tonkin Resolution which gave the then President Johnson unlimited authority to escalate the war as he saw fit It was North Vietnam with unlimited materials from Moscow and the presence of Russian technical advisors that began the invasion from the north at a time when American forces were being with­ drawn on a schedule announced months in advance, and despite the fact that no progress had been made at the so-called peace con­ ference in Paris except agreement as to the size and shape of the table. s . Has America reached such a low ebb in morale that we no longer feel any obligation for the men and women serving this country overseas? Have we reached such a low ebb that we think we can solve a difficult problem by running away from trouble? Personally, we feel that there are millions of Americans who will support and ap­ plaud the President's action. ’ There is no doubt that America and Americans are anxious to withdraw from Vietnam-and let us hope that never again do we get sucked into a war we never intend to win. But, we can’t rectify an undesirable situation merely by fleeing in panic or without any sense of obligation to our own people over there or to committments that were made in good faith Contrary to super-critical doves, President Nixon has suggested new and specific peace terms that should furnish a basis for negotiating in good faith a meaningful peace agreement. He proposes that: First, all American prisoners of war must be returned Second, there must be an internationally supervised cease-fire throughout IndocNna-not merely Vietnam. Once prisoners of war are released and once the internationally throughout Indochina From that time the U.S. will proceed with a complete withdrawal of all American forces from Vietnam within four months If Hanoi ever has or ever does intend to negotiate in good faith, the above* terms should provide the basis for an agreement that will permit the safe withdrawal of American military units, the return of American prisoners of war and clear the way for the Vietnamese to negotiate a settlement of their own differences at the bargaining table rather than on the battlefield. That is as it should be. watched you Only three more Tlle* *»d y<>« could hi?, dropped them off at the Doo Shelter, they have two cages provided for dropping off animala, after horn that is.

Mrs. Etta McCloud k daughters Robin, Vicki« Jackie Ta the Editor: They say a person working in restaurant work is to get 1180 an hour if four people are employed Well, I cook at work and was to Ca raise after three months on job. I have asked for more money. The people here in Hastings all are getting a two-cent raise and everything has went up: clothes, eels, uniforms. 1 think that cooks and the waitresses should be in for raises just like the rest of the people in A Hopeful Worker To the Editor: I have been following the comments about the new 90 To the Editor: After only a few days of operation it is apparent that the State Street 90-degree parking program is a monstrosity. Instead of decreasing the hazards of "Main Street" Parking it has increased them. m sure by now that many have had a pick-up (with camper body), a closed typed van. or similar vehicle parked next to them, so that in backing up threefourths of the car is in the traffic flow before the driver can see if there is any oncoming traffic Also, because cars extend deeper into the traffic area, it is now practically impossible to back out and turn without crossing over into the flow of opposing traffic.* I believe it was the opinion of the traffic authority who spoke to the Partung Committee that 90degree parking was far more hazardous than 45-degree parking. The Parking Committee should have given more serious consideration to the professional judgment of the expert. Why not change to 45-degrce parking-whioh would reduce the chance of accident by providing the driver with greater visibility, and permit him to hold back up without having to encroach upon the opposing lanes of traffic. Thank you for permitting me to voice my opinion Robert E. Stanley P.S.-The 4-way stops are great. To the Editor: I am writing this letter, to bring to the parents attention, that this is the time of year, when chilcken decide to throw stuff, such as rocks and small stones I don’t think the children who throw the rocks or small stones know how dangerous this can really be. I don’t think they understand that stones and rocks can put an eye out or cut a childs head or some other part of the body I have just been through an ordeal with my child who got Nt in the eye with a stone. It was a bad cut to the eye. But thank God its going to be fine at this time any way. I have been told that its a nature of children to throw stones and rocks. But I am sure that if the childrens parents knew it that they wouldn't really get away with it. Maybe I am too hard on my three children, but when I catch them throwing rocks or stones, I spank them and let them know how wrong this can be. Maybe some good came out of my child getting hurt, because now t he v tell on anyone who throws stuff I really don't like the idea of them becoming a tattle tail. But I figure they will feel bad if some other child gets hurt and they may have been able to prevent the accident. I hope this will lielp some one. to help prevent accidents caused by stones and rocks being throwed. Thankyou Concerned Pared Women of Barry Coanty: Please write to your State Senators, District and State Representatives, also the Governor, concerning the House Joint resolution Proposal LLL and the Senate Joint Resolution think much of it. I found that I had to back out blind, for at least half the length of my car, before I could see if anything was coming I expected to be Nt before I got out The next time I come to Hastings I parked in a lot and I would like to know what was wrong with the angle parking you used to have? They certainly couldn't have gained more parking spaces, this way. When I come to Hastings, it won't be for convenient parking. Yours truly.

Many women have the misconception that if the Equilizatioh Bill goes through, they will all be shipped out to dig ditches. This is pediculous. It simply means that if a woman is capable of a certain job which has formerly been held by men, she should be able to apply for that job without being discriminated against because its “men’s work.’’ Are perhaps men feeling jeopardized because they won’t let their masculine ego admit that a woman could do as well, or perhaps better? There are many areas where women are' being suppressed, discriminated against and wrapped ina silk straight jacket and told to “leave it to the men “ An example is the quota set in medical and dental schools. As many male applicants that want to apply can be accepted, but there is a quota on women. When a woman is raped, the first question asked is “What did you do to provoke It?” Women are afraid to report rapes because of the opinions of others, the drudgery of having the police frown upon them as if they had committed a crime. All articles on how to prevent rape, state that the woman should not fight back for fear of losing her life. But yet, if there are no marks of violent resistance, they consider it practically voluntary. Another example is that when a husband dies and the widow collects for his pension, she isn’t even con­ sidered the “head of the household.’’ Yet another, is that in junior high, all the girls must take Home Economics classes, and the boys take shop. Why must the classes be segregated like this, when if they combined the classes both sexes would benefit from them. The girl is assumed that cooking is her role, mechanics is the boys. There are many other examples of casting roles and rights being trodden Prices reduced on Maverick, Mustang, Ford Custom, LID and CalarieSOO! upon.

Wallace of Alabama won the Democratic preferential presidential primary election here and swept the entire Slate on Tuesday, May IS. Gov. Wallace polled 2,922 votes in Barry, beating runnerup Senator George S. McGovern of South Dakota by better than two to one. McGovern received 1,439 votes. Minnesota Senator Hubert Humphrey was a poor third in Barry, receiving 598 votes. According to the unofficial tabulation, Wallace claimed more than 50 percent of the Michigan vote in the field of seven Democratic candidates as nearly half of the more than 1.9 million voters participated in the State’s first presidential preferential primary in 44 years. Wallace received 808,943 votes in the State, McGovern 424,330 and Humphrey 249,231. Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm of New York, Senator Edmund Muskie of Maine, Henry Jackson of Washington and Vance Hartke of Indiana shared the rest of the Democratic vote Rep. Chisholm polled 95 voles in Barry County, Muskie 85, Jackson 33 and Hartke 8. McGovern gave Wallace a battle in Hastings, except for the second ward. Wallace received 133 votes in the First Ward to McGovern’s 119, 80 in the Second to McGovern’s 46, 79 In the Third to McGovern’s 74 and 102 in the Fourth to McGovern's 90. Barry County voters gave their approval to Proposal A to allow the Legislature to authorize lotteries and to permit the sale of lottery tickets.

Traditionally. Memorial Day has been observed on May 30. but now the celebrations will be held with an extended weekend. This period is not only dedicated to the memory of the war dead, but it has become one in which residents will pay special tribute to the memory of their loved ones. It is also a time for family gatherings and outings, with children returning home with their own families and happy reunions. Hastings will have its traditional parade starling al 10 a.m.. VFW Commander John R. Haynes has announced. The parade will form at 9.30 at the Food Center parking lot and will include a color guard composed of both Veterans of Foreign Wars and members of the American Legion. The (tastings High School and Junior High Bands will march along with many other units. The parade will move west on State Street to Broadway, then north on Broadway. stopping at the Thornapple where a wreath will be cast on the water The Parade will then proceed to State Road and then west to Riverside Cemetery If you plan to take an automobile trip -----overr the ‘ —,—,___ Memorial Day weekend, your car will be one of more than three million vehicles expected to log approximately 760 million miles during the 78-hour holiday This represents a five-percent increase in travel over the 1171 Memorial Day weekend, ac­ cording to Automobile Club of Michigan. "Since the upcoming holiday traditionally is the kickoff for summer activity in the State, the period from 6 p.m. Friday (May 26) to midnight Monday (May 29) will be one of the heaviest traveled periods of the year," states Auto Club Touring Manager Joseph L Ratke. Ratke estimates that about six of ^very 10 motorists who travel during the Memorial Dav holiday will experience delays due to the heavy volume of traffic. "To avoid unnecessary delays, travelers should plan their trips to avoid peak traffic periods." reminds Ratke “This is why it is so important to begin trips either before or after the rush periods." Auto Club states travel will peak between these times: Friday, 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. Saturday, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Monday, 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. "Monday will be the biggest Problem as travelers return ame," Ratke points out. "'Diis will be expecially true if the day is sunny and warm since most Michiganians will extend their stays to take advantage of the weather and then all crowd the highways at once." At least one out of every three vehicles on the road at peak travel periods will be some type of recreational, vehicle, predicts Auto Club, which suggest campers have alternate sites picked out since many state and private parks will fill over the Ratke says that most weekend travelers will confine trips to a 256-mile radius of home.

Student Government By Chris Glenn A new student government has been proposed for Delton High School. This new program will possibly replace the present student council, and be put into effect as soon as possible The new student board will consist of 7 students. 2 seniors. 2 juniors. 1 Sophomore, 1 fresh­ man and one student who receives the next highest number of votes All students, grades eight through eleven are elegible to run for office for the following year Those who wish to hold office are required to write a brief resume on themselves which, along with their picture, will be put on display The purpose of this change is to increase the efficiency of the student government by limiting the number of students on the board This will decrease the confusion that is often the drawback in having a large group Also this new student government will place the responsibility of doing the jobs that need to be done, throughout the year on the students that are interested in that area Com­ mittees will be formed from the entire high school student body increasing the involvement of the students tn more activities. It is the board’s job to decide which committees need to meet, their purpose and give every student equal opportunity to participate. The committee will then meet, choose officers and go about their business. Every Delton student from eighth to twelfth is asked to vote.

RICHARD NIXON is believed to be the leader who will involve our country in WW11I by many of the students here at Lakewood and yet others believe that he has brought us through so much tragedy, thus far, and that he would bring us through alot more. GEORGE WALLACE: has quite a few votes here at Lakewood. Itymy like him because be is strictly against busing. I, myself don’t believe in busing because of all the con­ fusion it has brought upon American families. If white kids want to mix with the blacks I propose that they can move into the school district of their choice. Students who are against Wallace suggest that his is communistic, very prejudice, and an all out dictator. GEORGE MCGOVERN: is another popular figure at Lakewood. Many of the students like his views on legalizing marijuana and his Vietnam proposals. Those who disagree with him do not like the issue in which he says the labormen and business men are to be payed equal. I have given some points on these important figures in this editorial thus far. I took careful study throughout the Lakewood High School Students body and have come up with these points. I believe that the people of this country will make the right decision in this year's election. - by Gerald Haight It must be the latest thing. If somebody doesn't like the political view of a presidential candidate, or just plain doesn’t like him, the way to keep him out of the race is to shoot nim. It’s only logical to think that a dead man can't run for president. The logical thinking of a mad man, to be more exact Governor George Wallace became the second presidential candidate to be shot down before nominations for president were made, and the fourth public figure to be gunned down within the past 10 years. Out of the four, Wallace is the lone survivor. It would seem that after the incident in Maryland, the location of the Governor’s shooting, some kind of law, or precautionary measures, would be enacted lo guard against this practice If we allow people that commit crimes such as shooting someone that is trying to help this country, to go free, then it's time to stop and ask. “Who’s the pne that's crazy?” Bob Booth Agency By Rick Schultz Finally after years of legislation there has been some clamping down on the problem of drinking and driving. This problem is involved in at least 50 percent of the fatal accidents this year, and the 1972 fatality rate is 50 over last year’s rate with three more major summer holidays Now a new law has been passed to stop this useless slaughter. The legal percentage of alcohol on one’s breath has been lowered from .15 to .10, giving the police a better stance for evidence in the courtroom. But I think that this should be taken one step further to a registration of alcoholics or drunk drivers who have had a violation. This registration should appear as a mark on the driver’s license or a special driver's license. To mak^this special license effective, another law should be passed that would require anyone purchasing any alcoholic beverage to present his driver’s license, plus spot checks on places of business that sell liquor, plus fines and jail terms for both the seller and the illegal customer. By April Miller Even though I am not involved in busing I would like to give my views on the subject and near the reader's opinions. I believe that we moved our families to tlx* places in which we wanted our children to go to school Why move to the north end of town and then have your children bused to the south? Wouldn't it be easier iust to pack our bags and move down to the south end? Busing is just causing alot of hassle throughout the nation. Many demonstrations and riots have been started. Isn't this what we want to get away from? Are we now turning into some type of communistic society which toils children when and where they have to go to school. I believe we have the freedom to live and learn where we want. I believe we should be free Americans. IgAA Five students accompanied Rev. C. William Martin to Central Michigan University on April 27. There they were greeted by his daughter. Colleen, a student at CMU. Colleen gave the students an interesting tour of the university, pointing out many points of in­ terest. Among these was the University Center, where various pieces of art of the local school children were on display. The group also visited the university library and Field house. After lunch Colleen took the students to her dorm where they discussed campus life. The trip was a very enjoyable and wor­ thwhile experience, and the students would like to thank Colleen and Rev. Martin for making it so. Home Ec. Awards American Style' The American Style, the Home Ec. Department's 1972 style show on May 4, was a success and the girls’ outfits were great.

Those complaining state that some, or all of the bags they have placed at the curb are being ignored. However, before condeming the officials or the sanitation company, let's take a good look at the facts. Under the contract Nashville has with the Charlotte Disposal company, the contractor agreed to pick up garbage, tin cans and Sass. That is the extent, and that why each person who holds a trash pick-up card is also intitled to use the village dump for grass, papers, and other rubbish. Other conditions of the garbage contract state that all garbage is to be wrapped. No garbage will be picked up that is loose in cans. Each customer is limited to two 20-gallon cans. The contractor has the right to refuse to pick up any can that has over a 20-gallon capacity. Any can that has holes in it or is rusted out must be replaced or the contractor has the right to refuse to dump it. Any can that has newspapers, car­ board or magazines or other trash not defined above will not be picked up. Any cans that have snow shoveled on top of them or has contents frozen in because of customer neglect will not be picked up. Any can left under downspouts or eaves by customer and con­ taining water will not be picked up. With a knowledge of the facts, residents should be able to cooperate to the point where the village officers, the customers and the contractor are all happy. You'll be delighted at what Pot can do for you and your attendants at a fraction of what you'd pay elsewhere./- Dog Obedience Our World... Welcome To It!

Ostroth, R2, Nashville, has been designated as a Centennial Farm by the Michigan Historical Commission. The farm, located in Maple Grove Township, has been in the possession of the family since 1871. It was originally purchased April 4. 1871 by George Ostroth, grandfather of the present owner, from Cyrus Buxton. Secretary of State Richahi H. Austin, who heads the Michigan Department of State which directs activities ol 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. Asparagus production in Michigan is forecast at 207,000 cwt., up 11 percent from last year and eight percent more than the 1970 crop. Figures recently compiled by the U.S. Department of Agriculture indicate per-acre real estate taxes paid bv American farmers have risen 34­ percent since 1967. •Activities is not redeemed or not resealed on the farm, then it must be delivered to the Stabilization and Conservation Committee.

You should begin checking your fields for evidence of alfalfa weevil infestation. Early cutting and good management can be effective in reducing the need for, use of insecticides to control the pests. You should learn to identify the alfalfa weevil in the various stages and be prepared to take appropriate action for control. A The “copulation explosion" of the alfalfa weevil is occurring because, in great part, the weevil came to this county without the natural enemies parasites, predators and diseases. Until the effectiveness of the parasites or resistant varieties can be determined, control of the alfalfa weevil depends on proper timing of the first cutting of alfalfa and careful use of in­ secticides. Most of the damage of the weevil occurs after the late bud stage or first flower stage Fortunately, the bud stage is also the time alfalfa should be cut for maximum yield and quality. If alfalfa is cut at this critical time, most eggs and grubs are killed and insecticides may not be needed. Don’t forget to go back and look at the stubble. Get down on your knees to Bee if there are grubs eating the new growth. If the new growth doesn't come back the weevil are eating it as fast as itf grows.

Hartings West City Limits Ask Uncle AARON Send your questions regarding •‘people problems” (moral or spiritual subjects) to Uncle AAron, Rl Hastings, Mich. 49058. Answers from the Book of Books Dear Uncle Aaron-What is truth? A. Truth is the thing we need, to make most decisions quickly and easily. Decisions, decisions, if I only didn’t have so many decisions to make, life would be much easier. Life is like an exam. Each question awaits your answer. If you know the truth the exam is easy. If you don’t, life is like a lie which gets you deeper and deeper into trouble. By the way did you know that a lie is someones attempt to improve the truth? Truth is telling it like it is. Not the way you think it ought to be, or the way that everybody else thinks. But just telling it like it really is. Truth is reality. Therefore the truth is the only thing that can help. Make sure you know the truth. In some cases you can’t afford to be wrong. Like the man who asked, “What must I do to inherit Eternal Life?” (for the answer, check the written record in 1st John 5:11-13). Many observed that beauty is often only skin deep. Our first impressions of our earth tell us that it is quite flat. But the text book tells us it’s much more like “the circle of the earth" Isaiah 40:22. Scientists have now seen for themselves that this is the truth. That’s the way it really is. The truth is sometimes disguised, waiting for someone who really wants to know the truth. Truth is reality. That’s the way the Maker made it. That’s the way it really us. There are many imitations and counterfeits. And I suppose there are more lies than truths be circulated these days. But there is only one real God the Creator of all things. One only begotten Son of God, Jesus Christ who said, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life, no man cometh unto the Father, but by me" John 14:6 ”. . .Thy Word is Truth." John 17:17b. “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks” is a familiar saying, and'it often applies to people as well as to members of the canine set. Not at our firm, however. We use the years to full advantage .. . always seeking, always learning, always accepting new ways of helping when we’re sure they are better ways of helping.

C.---------The “Planter Project” to improve the appearance of State Street was basically a good idea and still is It is a reflection on this Community, or. more specifically, on the thoughtless actions of a small minority, that vandalism lulled the project before it had a chance to succeed. Most of the flowering shrubs have been broken, the metal con­ tainers have become recepticals for all manner of trash and many of the wooden containers have had the boards kickedin. What is left of this project, that might well have developed into an attractive ad­ dition to State Street, is now, to put it bluntly, a mess of unsightly junk, that detracts rather than adds to the appearance of State Street. it would be easy to blame policy laxity for permitting this situation to develop. However, the fact is. it would take police sur­ veillance on each block 24 hours out of the day to cope with this sort of vandalism-and even then, unless an officer caught the culprit in the actual act of breaking off a branch, kicking in the container or tossing ' in junk, the chances are he could go free on a legal technically, especially if the arresting officer had neglected to go through the jargon prescribed by higher courts and letter perfect at that The result of this street improvement project, initiated by a former retail committee of the Hastings Chamber of Commerce, will not. we hope, discourage the initiation of further projects designed to make the retail district more attractive. However, future projects, to be of any value, must take into account the fact that petty vandalism, whether we like it or not. appears to be a fixed way of life among a small but persistent group here. So. in our opinion, the only thipg to do now, is to get the vandalised shrubs and planters off the street as quickly as possible, since, in their present condition, they are anything but attractive In planning future projects, it might be well to consider this vandalism angle, checking with the police, if necessary, to determine if adequate protection is possible and practical As we recall, planters were placed along State Street, several years ago by civic minded groups, and the result was about the same as experienced by the present project The shrubs were of a more substantial variety that the present ones and so could not be broken so easily, the planters were built more solidly and so couldh’t be kicked in so easily—but the planters were used as grash bins and became unsightly recepticals People who wouldn’t think of usir« the trash containers provided by the city seemed to go out of their wav to toss refuse into the planters So, conditions being as they are. it probably can be accepted as a practical guid for futire committees, that moveable planters are not the answer to improvement of the appearance of State Street and the business district. It isn’t new and tighter gun control laws needed in Michigan but better methods of enforcing those that do exist In fact, new laws would bo little good in light of recent U.S Supreme Court decisions that have hindered the police's ability to seize illegal weapons and carry out searches for same except under rigidly defined conditions That this has hampered enforcement of the illegal gun laws is attested to by the fact that although State Police made 683 arrests for concealed weapons during the first 11 months of 1971, the courts handed down only 67 convictions The rest were freed on various and sundry technicalities Estimates are that stolen or otherwise illegally-owned revolvers and pistols run into the hundreds of thousands in this State, yet the police are prevented by Constitutional law from carrying out meaningful search and seizure operations. As State Police Director John R. Plants pointed out. “ when Arthur Bremer, the man who shot Gov George Wallace, was acting suspiciously in Kalamazoo, officers couldn’t even shake down his car.” “Anything they found would not have been admissible evidence in court, whether it was unregistered or stolen, because of con­ stitutional limitations on search and seizure. And he probably had the gun with him then, less than two days before Wallace was shot ” In view of all this, it is difficult to see how stricter laws would be at all meaningful, until the Supreme Court action reverses some past decisions in regards to search and seizure operations Both Federal and State laws forbid issuing private gun permits to anyone mentally unbalanced But here, too. proof of “Mental un­ balance” is highly technical and difficult to prove Recently a shooting spree in Detroit that resulted in death and injury was carried out by a mentally incompetent by the name of Mattila Although regarded as unstable and potentially dangerous, he was. through various technicalities never formally committed to a State institution Two years ago, Mattila spent a week in a private hospital after lunging at his mother with a knife Yet. a Warren police department commitment petition was later dismissed after his mother refused to testify against him. After that. Mattila bought more handguns, bringing his total purchases over a two year period to 15 plus an undetermined number of rnles Even if a strict ’law banning private ownership of all guns were enacted today, enough unregistered weapons would be floating about so that any scheming crackpot such as Arthur Bremmer could obtain one on the black market-to say nothing of guns that would be brought in illegally through the underground We do not go along with the exaggerated hullabaloo that han­ dguns are purchased mostly by potential killers. This is a rank in­ justice to those millions of people who are true sportsmen and who know and appreciate the fine points of gun construction as other collectors do of books, stamps, coins, antiques, etc. As mentioned above, until the Supreme Court comes through with some decisions easing the presnet ngid rules on search and seizure operations, any laws designed at restricting the sale and ownership of firearms will be meaningless A law that can’t be broperly enforced is just another printed paragraph in an already overcrowded book T® the Editor: On May 24th, the Pentagon stopped denying that civilians and other non-military targets were being bombed in Southeast Asia. Many erf uS have known that U.S. planes were bombing non­ military targets in the. past as well as in the present, but now the Pentagon does not even try to hide it. Does the Pentagon think that the United States peopMre so'cold hearted and apathetic that we will sit by knowing that our government is openly without any shame-intentionally bombing old men. women, and children; homes, schools, and hospitals’* I think this is proof to even the strongest ’‘Hawk” that the United States is not out to “win the hearts and minds of the Vietnamese people” or out to “save” the Vietnamese people The United States is out to ex­ terminate the Vietnamese; exterminate just as one yvould 4.........

IfU Michigan's Finest—Some search for sunken treasure beneath the seas, others for lost gold mines and ancient artifacts while a few still seek the reward of eternal youth. Then there are those who make the annual pilgrimage into Michigan's woodlands in quest of the elusive Morels, monarch of the State's more than 2,000 varieties of wild mushrooms.

They are not in­ sects. They are living, thinking, feeling human beings--people just like we are. And they do not act like termites. They do not destroy our homes and property. They do not live by harming us and have no wish to bring sorrow to our lives. So I ask. why do we commit genocide upon the Vietnamesewhy exterminate them like pests’* And being that they are people-not insects-what right do we, the United States, have to destroy them; to kill and maime them; to destroy their homes and way of living; to destroy their country? Why are we even in Vietnam? And why are we not out of Vietnam? Some people point to lowering ground troop levels and say “See. President Nixon is getting us out of Vietnam." But for every ground troop that goes home, more airplanes, bombs, and naval vessels leave home for Vietnam. President Nixon is not getting us out of Vietnam, he is just changing our policy from one of ground warfare to one of air warfare When will we really get out of Vietnam9 That is a question you must answer.

OUT I was bom and raised in Hastings and was proud of our town but honestly with all the things being crammed down our throats I begin to wonder when our city and our county will wake up Sincerely E. Rowley all provisions of life. I would like to see prayer and Bible reading back in school. To many people this is unimportant, to God it is very important Abo it was said for those who are concerned are already involved in church activities. This may be true, but they are also concerned for anothers well being. 1 just want to bring ig> one more thing and that is the way students dress at Lakewood. We attended the spring Band Con­ cert. As far as I’m concerned hot Cnts, halters, and body suits, ve no place in school. I’m also wondering what happened to Ijikcwood’s Dress Code. Since we arc talking about things that we have time for, 1 would suggest that girls take time to be fully dressed before going to school. What are we proving when we dress like this, only what kind of person we are. I Have heard the young fellows talk about how the girls dress. I’ve never heard them say anything good. Think about it. A fellow cannot walk in the Kills without his shirt tucked in his pants. When we talk about society and what is happening, its very very important as a part of society to do what is right. As for Bacculaurate, its probably up to the seniors, whether or not it continues. Just remember this may be one more way of doing away with God in our society. Russia has said, all it will take to conquer America is to get them to reject God. How true this is. A concerned Lakewood Parent. Janet Erb To the Editor: The Hastings JayCees would like to extend its sincere ap­ preciation for the outstanding photographic coverage of 1971-72 Awards Banquet and Installation Ceremony held May 19, at the American Legion Hall. We feel very fortunate to have the co-operation of such a fine newspaper and affirm the truth expressed in your motto "Devoted to the Interests of Barry County." Again, Thank You very much. Sincerely yours, Richard E. Tobias To the Editor: We used to have a narrow State street and angle parking for years and got along OJK. Then some cute idea of Widening the street (State St.) and park lengthwise of the curb. Many times I’ve had to park on a side street because of someone parking out of the area marked and because it also limited us to fewer parking spaces. We went to Florida last fall and just got tack. Now some other cute idea has been thought up to park cross wise of the street As an idea and who ever thought it up it’s idiotic I never will park on State St. now and I sure can understand why there is so much objection to it. I’m sure more and more will go to Grand Rapids or Battle Creek To the Editor: I read the article in The Banner from Lakewood written by Kerry Diilenbeck. I was somewhat upset at the article. America once was a country that was loved by all. Today our society has moved in such a way that what once was wrong i«n»w right. Whether it be morals, drug problems, or marriage. I simply use these three because in this day and age these are some of society’s worst problems Have you ever thought these problems exist because of forgetting God? You mentioned that prayer and Bible reading was removed from the school Remember this was done by one person, who is an athiest Because the action was taken by the federal government doesn’t mean it was a decision that was best for the American People. There have been many decisions which have been made by the government that has only given our country more money. Some of these are sad. but as a people we sit idly by because of our governments decision. One example is liquor taxes, and yet our government spends millions of dollars each year to rehabilitate the alcholic Once again was this decision best for the American people. As far as seniors having to participate in bacculuarate, maybe this should be his or her decision. Each of you has spent at least 13 years in school. Can you honestly say that one two hour service is more than you can tolerate? It was said that in this service, God is given honor, glory, and praise. This is an ideal instead of a reality. Perhaps we ought to stick to some ideals and forget reality. If bacculaurate is firing and wasteful. I'm wondering why we spend time on graduation Pertans the senior could receive, his diploma in the mail. We have graduation, because we want to honor the senior for what he or she has accomplished I for one want to thank God for To the Editor: Next fall hundreds of Barry county youngsters will attend school for the first time. Most of these will be five year olds who will attend kindergarten.

Our little girl was born with Down’s syndrome, commonly known as Mongolism She, like the other children at Chidester school, needs special help in determining how much she can learn, and the best ways to help her develop to her full potential. S It is especially important to determine these things when the children are very young. I am very impressed with the wonderful job the people at Chidester are doing, and especially with the children that they work with These special children are so easy to love, but it takes a special ability to combine love with teaching.

Camping is one of the highlights of the students lear­ ning experiences. It is not camp in comparison with regular summer camps but really an enrichment to regular school curriculum. This experience builds relationship between teacher and students as well as giving the students an awamess and insight in nature which is not attainable in the classroom situation. Adults are with'the students at all times without the formality of classroom. This is the 5th year that Delton 5th graders have attended the Wesley Woods Outdoor Education Center. The program is divided into 6 areas of study. Each teacher is an expert in their field and follow the philosophy of “learning by doing*. The areas as defined are Plants. Insect and Pond Life. Compass. Soils. Rocks and Minerals, Birds and Ecology. High school girls contribute to the program by acting as assistants and also gain ex­ perience themselves. They all are enthusiastic about the program and spend both their junior and senior years with the students. All are also in the cadet teaching program. Extra enrichment activities are planned. Among those are gun safety, flytying, parachute making, pottery, kite making, outdoor art, bird banding and weaving. Enrichment trips are taken to see a sawmill in operation and a visit to a honey farm and the Little Grand - Canyon bed. On the final evening a cookoul is held followed by a contest nite which includes log For about the aam* price a* three of these window units, you can buy Lennox whole-house air condition­ ing . . .♦ Ifs especially easy If you have a ducted heating system now.

First group consisted of teachers and students in the following sections: Mr. Pinkster, Mr. Prentice, Mrs. Beebe and Mrs. Duncan. Second group: Mr. Wallace, Mrs. Trantham and Mrs. Ramsay. Cadet teachers assisting in* eluded Peggy Montatue, Shelly Springer, Elaine Beaugrand, Cindy Humphreys. Becky Breyer and Cathy Marlow. Elementary Principal Julius Knowlton, with over 40 years of camping experience working with Scouts, has been in­ strumental in the im­ plementation of this program and attends when time permits. The program has been self sustaining. The students have been encouraged to earn the money themselves for their stay at camp.

It was also the day the Political Involvement dub had it’s Peace Seminar, but apparently everyone in the Delton community except a small group of thirty or so, had more important things to do than to attena any sort of informative and educational session It must be Sundays are not for thinking and learning; only lounging around and maybe dying if you happen to be In Viet Nam. If I seem a little disappointed, it’s because I am Perhaps the reason for the poor turnout at the Seminar is the fault of the Political dub for not advertising enough If you missed hearing about it completely I can only say and I the Political Involvement dub are sorry, and to fill you in on the news A small group of students from Delton High School thought it would be quite worthwhile and interesting to bring together a group of speakers all speaking on uie virtues of peace; something which is of great concern to these students and something they hope to share with you. The students raised money by selling candy and sponsoring a car wash. They had ordered some very good literature to pass out free to anyone desiring it and organized together some ex­ cellent speakers. I would like to thank Father Bill Kobza, Dave Zimmerman, Hillery Bissel, and Lucille Patrick for their inspiring knowledge they so freely gave out, and as Hillery put it, "We had convinced the convinced.” The Seminar could in no way be called a failure, only a disap­ pointment. To myself inside it was a complete success, for I realized so many new ideas. I believe no one realizes how much they do not know until they learn, and I might add, if you have not learned, you do not know. . . By AprH Miller esent the class. Lawrence Paul Casarez.

Woodland's Hardware Hastldfl In The Ball Game There was a man who was watching some small boys play baseball on a vacant lot. He asked the first baseman what the score was. The boy replied "112 to nothing, their favor". "Wow, they’re beating you pretty badly, aren't they?" "I don't know", said the boy, "We ain’t had our bat yet...". When they do. you can bet they'll be in the ball game. . .We’re in the ball game too, only it’s more of a foot­ ball game because fitting shoes is primarily centered around tha ball of your foot, in length and width. The ball must strike on the precise spot in the shoe to be correct. Only an expert filter can feel and tell if it’s right. If the length is off, the arch of your foot will be strained, not resting on the curved shank. If the width is wrong, the foot will be pinched up and cramped out in the ball game. Depend on us to accurately fit your next pair of shoes. Perm Special (Coapletc) Styled Cit, Skiapoo and Sal Conditioner (Reg. The Superette 205 N.

The increase in property assessment in the Thornapple Kellogg School District has a reverse affect on the amount of State Aid to the school district, Supl. Arthur Ellinger reports. The State Aid Act has a deductible factor built into the Act which Is to help equalize the local and State support to School Districts. This deductible factor is there so rich Districts will get less State Aid if their assessments increase. Since the T-K School District has had a large increase in assessments, the amount of State Aid had decreased leaving any increase in revenue to local support This means the State aid will drop $45.14 per student for next year or a total of $93,485. There are two ways we may make up this deficit: 1. Local support through in­ creased assessment or voting more millage for operation. 2. Increase Stale Aid per student. The need for the 2.5 mills renewal to operate the Thor­ napple Kellogg Schools is evident since the School District is losing $93,485.00 in State Aid. The Board of Education is asking approval of this renewal at the annual election held on June 12. The Board would like to Kint out this is not an added tax, t the 2.5 mills expired in December, 1971 and the Board is asking to approve this operational millage for another 3 years.

C.—--------------------------In view of a recent Supreme Court decision, the Amish people in this country now have the undisputed right to rear and educate their children without danger of outside pressures to make them conform to standard American proceedures That is as it should be There is something inspiring about a group of people who have held steadfast to a simple way of life and strict moral codes in the face of revolutionary influences that have, in recent years, rocked the so-called “civilized world." So many of us today are underlain and confused and in a mood to accept the theory that any charge is “progress’* while any tendency to respect past codes is, of itself, unrealistic conserve!iaem. Throughout the years, the Amish have given this country far more than they have asked-in fact, al) they ask is the privilege to go their own way without interference They have been a thrifty people who have improved and increased the productivity and value of the land on which they live; they pay their fair share of taxes, ask no outside aid from state of federal governments, take care of their own needy and pay their own educational costs. Modern educators, or at least some of them, are concerned because the Amish training places so much stress on practical matters such as household arts, animal husbandry and farm management, and so little time on conventional educational subjects such as history, literature, sociology, etc. However, it is very probable that the Amish youngsters acquire during their formative years sound basic values that conventional schools might find dif­ ficult to duplicate Under the^Amish system, the chilcken have the advantage of a well regulated home life in which they have a part. This. too. is an advantage denied to many youngsters in this hectic modern world of ours. All in all. we have more to learn from the Amish people than they have from us They have a deep-seated faith and dare to live ac­ cording to their convictions, even if this means turning their backs on many of the marvels and luxuries of the outside world. So. since they are a thrifty, law abiding and God fearing people who ask nothing but contribute much in their own quiet way, let them live at peace tn their own communities After all, isn’t that what America is supposed to be about driver’s license away for three years and he has a family and children at home. Please help those who have alcoholic trouble but a law against these things that hurt these poor people who are sick and can t get what the Good Soul left them. Nothing to go to work with just hitch a ride. God Bless You All. A Hopeful Reader 116th YEAR June 7. 1972 r-Voice —i I---------------- OF THE PEOPLE —■ To the Editor: Since R.M. Cook is no longer editor must we have his opinion on everything event week* His faint praise of Gov. George Wallace was derogatory. Did R M Cook ever serve his country? No! His unnecessary praise of Nixon, who is now. and has for years, been leading us straight down the road to communism, might have been put to better use. Mr. Cook might spend a little time teaching his son how to put Out a readable newspaper, as one must go to the only other newspaper in Hastings to get any real news In regard to the parking problem, why let it bother you?

That is the reason Hastings has no business. lb'' fine print in the Banner, makes it impossible to read, without killing your eyes. “A Citizen” To the Editor: In this season of campaign speeches, we sometimes lose track of whd’s running for what. However, I’d like to tell you about a candidate for an office whom you can’t afford to forget! Miss Linda Middaugh, 18, and a graduating senior, has filed her petition and is now a candidate for the I^akewood School Board election on June 12th. Linda has the support of the student body at Lakewood. They are excited and anxious to see a young adult on the Board. She is aware of the problems and student needs at Lakewood, and endeavors to express what she feels are the realistic suggestions and reforms presented by the students. She also has much adult sup­ port. A great number of teachers and administrators heartily approve of seeing a young adult, with constructive ideas, working for the betterment of the education for her peers. The voting public's support is, of course, our goal. Linda Mid­ daugh is qualified for the position. She is the voice of your children and young adults. That's a voice we can’t afford to forget! That’s a voice we can’t afford to ignore! in our opinion Michigan should not “count the chickens before they hatch in regard to potential revenue from State-run lottery operations Some of the gross “take" will filter back into the treasury, but far less than some of that optimists now predict. First of all, the State has specified that a generous percentage of the gross shall be returned to lottery patrons in the form of prize money That is as it should be After all, the lottery is being pushed as Sincerely, a voluntary form of painless taxation. Noone will be compelled to buy Cathy Ann Bumgardner tickets and the chances are that those who can best afford to buy and take the loss in this sort of deal are the ones who will not be listed among the “best customers " ’ Then, too, much of the gross will be spent in support of an entirely new bureaucracy, one the size of which, no limits have been placed.. The proposed salary for the director, so we read, is in the neigh­ borhood of $32,500 and. moreover, he is to have near dictatorial powers, operating independently of legislative restraints.

THE HASTINGS BANNER.......... Jane 7. 1972 As I See It Maturity of Thinking for fairness to his people was General Robert E. Lee. We consider Adolph Hitler was a ruthless man but he did not use the germ bomb which he possessed. Many people think Joseph Stalin was a liberator but blooded murderer and a racist deep in his heart. During the Depression days when the bank holiday was here, many bankers made a fortune at someone else’s expense. During the Industrial Revolution period, industrial leaders hired organised crime syndicates to break the union and today union leaders use the crime syndicates to kill their rivals The more I read history and try to look at it as objectively as possible, I find that many great men suffered through a lonely life. If he can be successful at the end, he will be a hero. If a good man lives a decent life but was born in the wrong country or wrong place, then he will be condemned as a traitor or ap­ peaser like Marshall Peton of Too many of us are emotionally immature and try to judge an individual by his money, power and success. We never really evaluate the individual as an individual on a total basis. Especially, during this political year, smear tactics have been used on both sides. I fed strongly that many good candidates of both parties have been discredited for no reason except public emotion which is stimulated by Madison Avenue tactics which are employed by monetary power. We must judge an individual in each separate case with separate circumstances and, most of all, we must recognize how much evaluation has been based upon public relation tactics or the true tacts of the issue or individual. No human being Is infallible and no story is totally accurate in an election year. To the Editor: I think it is time that the people of Has *-----------" now pa provided in the downtown area. The original parking com­ mittee, which consisted of representatives of the Mer­ chants, the Chamber of Com­ merce, Police Department, city aineer, Planning Commission members of the City Council, spent many hours and did much research on the downtown Including convenience, safety, availability, and economy to all. All information was presented at the Council meetings on several occasions. From these meetings emerged a Parking Authority, appointed by the Mayor, for the purpose of putting the plans of the Parking Com­ mittee in effect Somewhere in the line of politics there came about a so called compromise We are all now parking in accordance with the com­ promise. A survey of the people of our city would surely prove that you do not compromise to make a few people happy when the right way ana proven way has been by-passed. About the only thing it can do is cost more money to re-paint the pavement for an ideal angle Let us all let our Parking Authority know how we feel about this situation. They are as follows, head by Pat Hodges as Chairman: Pat Hodges-Chairman; Claude Gardner and Dick Jacobs. Representing The Planning Commission-Jack Laubaugh, Jim Wiswell and Ken Miller. Representing The Council— Denny Cleveland, Bill Cook. Lynn Brown. The original Parking Com­ mittee. of which I was Chairman, and was relieved as of March 13, has now no authority to make any changes.

I for one am not quite ready to surrender to the law of the jungle. I say leave those planters on State Street and repair them.

A fine job! For the week and weekend, the Day Use Area had 42.438 visitors, and there were 8,335 campers By the way. you can use the ’ Hot Line” to find out where camp vacancies are Call the Roscommon Field Office: 1-517­ 275-5135-Al your own expense, of course. Our Yankee Springs Recreation Area includes 4.900 acres of park and nearly 16,000 acres of the Barry Game Area The Gun Lake campground has 200 sites for traders, campers or tents at $2.50 a day The rustic campground at Deep Lake had 120 sites at $1.50 per day There are miles of foot trails. Rich in Indian lore, pioneer life and history, the area is one of our heritages that we should util|ze-and protect. Northern Michigan’s 150 forest campgrounds are scheduled for rule changes in midJune, designed to spread their use among more recreationists and to re-order the public's enlovmenl of these areas to low keyed activities. One rule change will reduce each camping stay to 15 days from May 1 through Labor Day, and you won’t be able to leave a campsite unoccupied during the first 24 hours after setting up camp The new rules also cover many other activities, and really wouldn't be nerrmry if everyone was considerate of others Outdoor Trail—Game Warden Brent Willison reports that brown trout have been hitting on the Coldwater River in the northern Crt of Barry County. The best it seems to be three or four redworms on a plain hook. Most of our area lakes have been nroducing good blue gills, and Wall Lake has probably been the moat consistent but many would dispute that. Bluegills have been on their beds. Bass fishing hasn’t been too good, and most caught haven't been big. Officer Willison said the bass have been hitting artificial night crawlers and also a “nip-n-ditty” lue-with' propellers on both ends making it gurgle” as it goes through the water. Fishing's been heavy on weekends, but you can get some ••qpiieC” fishing during the week.

I»72......... n �Coach Oom Praises Baseball Players for Outstanding Year RY BERNIE OOM HHS Baseball Coach When a coach has a good year or wins a championship, he naturally immediately reflects on the players I had a lew fine underclassmen who contributed greatly but this year’s senior class has to be singled out as a great bunch of ballplayers. The seniors include Denny Armstrong, catcher-outfielder, Steve Brogan, outfielder; Ed Hurley, pitcher-third baseman. Mike Jacobs, outfielder. Mark Ostroth, pitcher-outfielder; Rick Powell, pitcher-outfielder. and Dale Traister. outfielder Two seniors I feel desene special mention are Carl Norris and Bob Terry Carl is a fourvear varsity veteran and Bob has been our regular shortslop for three years. Both were elected cocaptains by their teammates this season and both made the all­ conference team as juniors and are likely candidates again this year. Bob Terry has hil 348. 320 and •WO in his three years on the varsity. In 1970, . as a sophomore. Bob was second in league hitting with a 389 average Last year he was seventh with a .367 and this year he should be near the top (final statistics not in yet) with his .405 conference average. In 248 actual times at bat over a three year period, he has struck out only 22 times, and only five this past season Bob hit safely in 16 of our 19 games this spring, and was by far the Saxons' best hitter for the year His defensive work at shortstop has been great Bob made many plays look easy that most shortstops would not have reached. He has a very strong arm. and great speed. He is one of the fastest and smartest baserunners 1 have had in my seven years here Bob was also a standout guard and defensive all-conference half­ back on this year's fine football squad. Carl Norris is one of the finest pitchers in the West Michigan area. He will be sorely missed when the Saxons take the field next Spring. Over the past three seasons he has won 21 and lost only five. He has, in 178 innings of pitching in 3 years, allowed only 25 earned runs for a 98 earned run average per game. (Her the past two seasons Carl has led the league with 59 and .57 earned run averages, respec­ tively Also in 178 innings Carl has struck out 250, walked only 88. and allowed only 95 hits. That is a per game average of 10 strikeouts. 3.5 walks and 3.9 hits Carl's accomplishments this past season include a 7-1 record, 11 strikeout average per game and only one game where he walked more than one man. Carl has had a strong bat also, hitting .295, .353. and .286 over the last three seasons. He has had seven career homers and batted EXPERT TIRE SERVICE NORTH STAR TO GRAND RAPIDS Leave Hastings I: 05PM 9:30 P.M. Arrive Grand Rapids ...2:10PM 10:30P.M.

The plans for the proposed high school building provide for ex­ pansion in needed areas at such time as the enrollment warrants it. It must be pointed out that the floor plan for the high school (as included in the newsletter) is only an architectual sketch-made for the purpose of showing areas needed in a new structure. This plan is flexible and will un doubts bly undergo some minor changes-after approval for construction is received. To clear up some confusion as to terms used-a media center is in ac­ tuality a library , the large group instruction area is an auditorium.

Tne overall Shrine of The Snowshoe Priest will rise 60 feet above the Red Rock Bluffs, over looking Keweenaw Bav of Lake Superior. The rugged, natural beauty of, ana the panoramic view from, the surrounding park area should inspire visitors to indulge in a moment of quiet meditation, according to the Michigan Tourist Council. Copper used for the statue of Bishop Baraga is from the White Pine Mine at Ontonagon and was donated by the Copper Range of the Upper Peninsula The sculptor was Jack E. Anderson of Lake Linden. Frederic Baraga was more than a missionary. He was a pioneer, educator, a man of peace and hid role in Michigan’s history was indeed a significant one. ’ Realizing that communication was vital to understanding, in 1832 he wrote a prayerbook and catechism in tne Ottawa language, followed by a 576 page dictionary and a 662 page grammar of the Chippewa language and a number of other works of paramount importance. Although the Shrine and park will not oe formally dedicated until sometime in 1973, visitors are invited to enjoy the quiet beauty of (he memorial.

Mich. 4WS8. Answers from the Book of Books Q. I have a question. In these days when there is so much time and print spent in protest mar­ ches, riots and genera) disregard for law; what should our attitude be toward our government, it’s laws and law officers? A. Don’t be deceived. Any government is better than no government. The very nature of man's heart demands govern­ ment because, “the heart is deceitful.’' and “every way of a man is clean in his own eyes." Our government is not perfect but let's not be too hasty in crying for a return to the law of tooth and daw. Since human nature is what it is (no one is infaliabie) therefore our best safe guard for the time being is a government “of the people, by the people and for the people." Until tne “lord of lords, and King of Kings" returns to reign "forever and ever," in righteousness Let me share with you some plain facts. Let’s tell it like it really is 1st. “.. The most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men." Daniel 4:17b. This is God's mediatorial kingdom. God ruling through representives. 2nd. “Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers (rulers). For there is no power but of God. the powers that be are ordained of God." Romans 13:1. 3rd. “Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation. For rulers are not a terror to good works, out to evil. ...For he is the minister of God to thee for good ...” Romans 13:2-4 To rebel against the Most High is like attacking a concrete wall with your head. Every soul will submit to the most High or else His will is written. It is the Bible. Will you listen? Have you counted the cost? LAKEWOOD UNITED METHOOIST Hwy.MVyml.WofM-44 L>keOd«M.Mich. R«v.

In a special message to the Annual Meeting of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass., on June 5. Arthur P. Wuth. the new chsirman of The Christian Science board of Directors, called on the members to dedicate themselves anew to the practice of Christian healing. “Each one heal one is the imperative of today,” Mr. Wuth declared, specifically noting the "great need of Healing" drug addiction and disease, poverty • and materialism Firsthand evidence of the immense practicality of Christian healing is presented each week at Wednesday evening testimony meetings held at First Church of Christ, Scientist, years, and he made his 7th trip U> Hastings, according to Grace this country to attend the General Divens Conference of the Methodist Charch which was held In TRINITY GOSPEL CHURCH Atlanta.

If wilting is not possible, add 200 pounds of ground ear corn, 100 to 200 pounds of distillers grains or 100 to 200 pounds of dried beet pulp per Um of wet forages to reduce seepage and improve forage quality. Barley should be harvested as silage when plants are in the milk to dough stage of maturity. In MS’’ studies, barley yielded 25 percent more dry matter at the milk stage and 33 percent at the dough stage (kernes) than at the one-half bloom (flower) stage of matirity. Wheat is similar to barley and can be harvested in the milk to early sough stages. Wheeler rye, a new variety developed at Michigan State, yielded well as a forage crop in three years of trials. The fallseeded rye yields 1.5 to 2.6 tons of (fry matter per acre when har vested for silage May 20 to 25 in East Lansing.

A grain ration containing 1( to 20 percent protein (25 to 30 percent protein supplement> and ted at a rate of one pound for three pounds of milk is needed to balance the ration when cereal pain silages are fed as the major roughage. For summer pasture, Sudan pass and Sudan X Sorghum hybrids are excellent They can also be harvested for hay or wilted silage. They are better adapted to growing in hot weather and are more resistant to drought than corn. These forages produce a regrowth which has some ad­ vantages for summer pasture or peen chop, although the tote) yield is generally no greater than for com. They will need adequate moisture for high yields. In pasture experiments, Illinois researchers found that cows grazing piper Sudangrass and Sudax (SX-1I1 produced as well as those grazing alfalfa <48 potsids of milk per day). The Sudax produced JO percent more days of grazing than alfalfa or piper Sudan <133 versus 101). To reduce trampling and lodging, these should be grazed at a height of less than 30 inches. Sudangrass and the Sudan X Sorghum hybrids contain 85 to W percent moisture at the im­ mature stages and 80 to 85 per­ cent at later stages of growth. Wilting to below TO percent moisture, or adding dry materials such as beet pulp or ground ear com (300 pounds per ton) is necessary to reduce seepage and produce a better quality silage if stored in upright silos. WARNING: The sorghums contain varying amounts of prussic acid whidi can be lethal to cattle when the concentration gets too high. However, prussic acid poisoning is rarely a problem when these forages are ted and should not be a reason to limit the use of Sudangrass or the Sudan X Sofghum hybrids. Don’t graze before they are 20 inches tall.

Indians, Fur Traders Gather At Charlton Tepees will line the river bank this weekend at Charlton Park, as Indians and white fur traders gather to re-enact a two hundred year old event of the Great Lakes Region. A traders rendezvous, a meeting of fur traders and In* dians begins the Sdmmer ac* livities at Charlton Park, as traders paddle their canoes down the Thorn apple River to ex* change goods for furs with the Indians. Each Spring. French traders, later British and American, began their journey from Mackinac Island in long canoes, laden with cloth, iron im­ plements, beads, guns, ‘•firewater,’’ and ornaments, to lhe thousands of places along the shores of navigable waters w-nere the Indian came to trade. In exchange for the goods, the Indian traded his skins of beaver, muskrat, raccoon, bear and other wild animals abundant in the area. Their meeting was usually a happy event, with friendly haggling, feasting, and athletic competition. Indians and fur traders this weekend will re-enact the ren­ dezvous, at the river's edge, at 10 a.m. Saturday and Sunday, and 2 p.m. Saturday afternoon. Dressed in authentic costume, Indians and fur traders will exchange their goods, and then engage in musket, tomahawk and knife-throwing competition. Charlton Park, Village and Museum is located north of M-79 between Hastings and Nashville. Bring a picnic basket and the family and enjoy the weekend fur traders rendezvous. Seek Funds to Move Church To Charlton The Barry County Historical Society is seeking contributions to “The Widow s Mite" which will be used to help move, preserve and restore the United Methodist Church at Carlton Center, to Charlton Park. Everyone is being asked: “give what you can.” At the park the church will be non-denominational, and available to organized groups for meetings and services. Plans call for moving it July 1. Contributions to the “Widow’s Mite" may be sent to the Historical Society Church Fund, in care of the Hastings City Bank. The estimated cost to move and restore the church, according to the Historical Society president, Norman Barlow*, is >10,000. The Thornapple Foundation has made a >3,500 grant and. with >5,000 in park funds, an ad­ ditional >2,500 is needed. Coaplsits Course Army Pvt Stanley A. Jackson. 19. son of Mr. and Mrs. Burdette J.

A good communitv newspaper needs the advertisers' support. . Without proper advertising support, the newspaper cannot improve herself to do a decent job just like housewives and mothers cannot do . a good iob or cook a good meal without grocery dollars. It is time for most of us to recognize what the newspaper has done for the com­ munity in the past. Let us not see the community newspaper fail in its job.

The department’s wage and hour division has verbally told the county medical facility to pay nurses aides lhe same wages as orderlys. Regardless of sex. That would amount to an average increase of 50 cents an hour for nurses aides. Officials are puzzled because they have never received a formal written communication as to violation of any labor laws other than the verbal warnings from tbe Department's Assistant Area Director Daniel O'Charzak. Facility director. Mrs. Peg Burge, told the board that O'Charzak has been talking with facility employees and talking with her about the problem. But, Mrs. Burge added, He has never given me any written com- munication as to any violation. O’Charzak said he could, not discuss the case and he even refused to acknowledge any involvement by his department at the facility. The department conducted a similar investigation several Sars ago, but according to of­ fals everything was satisfactory because the department decided against any action. County authoripies say the situation has not changed and the county is not in violation of labor laws and they question the department s reasoning for re­ opening the case. Finance Chairman Joe Bennett says if the county is forced to pay, it will cost between $75,000 and $100,000. The county, Bdhnctt says, can’t possibile get its hands on that kind of money without asking the public for a special millage levy. children under six.

Barry Sitting Tight on Wage Dispute With Federal Agency Name Walton * Mrs. Lenz to School Board Barry County Commissioners and Social Service Board members yesterday decided to sit tight in a wage dispute with the U.S. Department of Labor. The department's wage and hour division has verbally told the county medical facility to pay nurses aides the same wages as orderlys. Regardless of sex. That would amount to an average increase of 50 cents an hour for nurses aides. Officials are puzzled because they have never received a formal written communication as to violation of any labor laws other than the verbal warnings from the Department's Assistant Area Director Daniel O'Charzak. Facility director, Mrs. Peg Burge, told the board that O'Charzak has been talking with facility employees and talking with her about the problem. But. Mrs. Burge added. He has never given me any written com- munication as to any violation. O’Charzak said he could nbt discuss the case and he even refused to acknowledge any involvement by his department at the facility. The department conducted a similar investigation several years ago. but according to of­ ficials everything was satisfactory because the department decided against any action. * County authoripies say the situation has not changed and the county is not in violation of labor laws and they question the department’s reasoning for re­ opening the case. Finance Chairman Joe Bennett says if the county is forced to pay. it will cost between 175,000 and 1100,000. The county, Bennett says, can’t poasibile get its hands on that kind of money without asking the public for a special millage levy. Dr. John WalUm was reelected to the Hastings Area School Board of Education In Monday's balloting, polling 933 votes. Mrs. Jack (Judy) Lem was elected to the board, polling 829 votes while Mrs. James (Carolyn) Coleman received 774. according to the unofficial tabulation. vacated by Mrs. Eric (Barbara) didate.

THE HASTINGS BANNER 1*71 �[-Voice EDITORIAL —i I---------- — OF THE PEOPLE —* A local storm appears to be brewing over 45-degree vs SOdegree parking It would be senseless to let this division of opinion destroy the good work already done in creating a State Street Parking Mall which has drawn the central business district into one retail area and eliminated the necessity of bucking high speed traffic in crossing from one side of State Street to the other. Actually there should be no bullheadedness regarding one parking plan or the other The objective is a system that will prove to be most convenient and easy to use (or all those who drive into the area to shop * The existing center Unes-which will eventually be removed-are confusing to those who use the Mall Since State Street between Michigan Avenue and Church Street is now primarily a parking area, rather than a throughway, the center lines are meaningless and should be disregarded in process of parking a car. That is, If you plan to drive into a stall on the south side of the street, there Is no reason wiiy you can't swing well over to the north of the center line in order to drive in at the proper 90-degree angle. The advantage of the 90-degree system is that it permits more effective use of space since a driver moving in either direction along the street can swing into a vacant space on either side of the street However, theory sometimes does not work out as expected. There are a considerable number of drivers who are obviously finding the 90 degree pattern confusing to use-at least 30 per cent. Judging from the number of improperly narked cars at any one time Many com­ petent drivers never were happy with the parallel parking system Perhaps the same thing will be true of Uddegree parking There should be no hesitancy about installing SSdegrce parking if it appears that this pattern is easier for the average motorist to use. The objective is not to champion one parking plan or the other but to adopt the system that will make the business district here a more attractive and convenient place in which to shop. That is what the Mall is all about. That schools have not retrogressed over the yean is a conclusion at which one might logically arrive after reading the following an­ swers that appeared to questions during a written exam in Civics at Hastings High conducted by Harold Hunt some forty-odd years ago This summary, prepared by Mr Hunt, himself, came to light recently in a packet of old letters. Although these highly original answers might indicate the con­ trary. Mr Hunt was an A l teacher, one of the most competent to ever serve in the Hastings Public School system. He had no problems with discipline, he won and retained the respect of his students and devoted hours of extra time to members of his class who needed special assistance. A gauge of his exceptional ability, is the fact that be went on to become superintendent of public schools In Chicago and was later a special professor in education at Harvard. Needless to say. the results of this first test at the outset of his professional career was a shattering experience but fortunately be was blessed with sufficient sense of humor to "weather through.” Well, what would your reaction have been if seemingly easy questions, discussed at length in class, had brought forth such an swers as the following: "A closed shop is where liquor cannot be sold if one-half alcohol" (This was during the prohibition era-Ed >. "A closed shop is dosed, it has no business, not working." ■ shops are shops closed down because they have viola led aw. • shops are shops where people work inside all the time and very seldom work outside " “One hundred percent Americanism is when Americans aren’t allowed to have anything that contains more than one-half percent alcohol Anyone shouldn't have anything that contains more then onehalf percent alcohol In IL" ■'Mussolini Is the great electrical wiiard in the world." "Frank B Kellogg is the premier of Greet Britain" (He was U.S. Secretary of State-Ed> "A referendum is s book which you keep st the polls to tell whether you have registered or not ' “A referendum is what you keep track of voles on." "Referendum means when the people interfere with an election." “Tax exempt income is when Union workers have a certain percent of their income taken out. and this was at one time used for think '■ "Australian ballots are ballots of all different shapes and colors.” "Die Australian ballot is a ballot thev use in Russia " Although the "generation gap” in the “good old days" caused no concern, it is evident that there did exist a "communications gap" of heroic proportions To the Editor: I love Hastings and as 1 live such a secluded life I had no idea that our moral condition had reached such a low ebb as that which so many of this week’s editorials seem Io indicate I tnve been so glad that I didn’t live in a big city where these conditions existed However. I agree that it serves no purpose to hide our heads in the sand and it * much better to face facts as they are It seems to me that instead of working so hard to establish a "drop in" for these able bodied yoisig people, where they can go at all hours of the day and night, and spend their time in ideness. playing games or patching up who knows what. we might better provide them with some honest hard work and see that they did it if they wanted to rat When my boys were of that age during the summer vacation, they went to wort in the onions, down on Gun Marsh. They worked 10 hoirs a day weeding onions and probably got as much for the day as they would get for an hour now. and they stayed there all summer What in human parents, why 4......... THE HASTINGS now we probably would be brought up before the prosecutor Those boys are past middle age now and I think as a character builder their bringing up was preferable to the pampering and entire lack of discipline this generation is experiencing. I heartily agree with Mr. Bennett, leave the planters, but get rid of the vandals. I was aroused at the letter about “these poor people on A.D.C." and thought at first it was meant as sarcasm but discovered the writer was serious Perhaps they could borrow their neighbors lawn mower and cut their own grass, and with a little ingenuity, might take care of any small repairs And isn’t is just too bad if the man had his license revoked tor three years “which seems very improbable" and has to hitch a ride to work. If I sound bitter it is because of what 1 consider injustice, and although none of this can concern me personally in any vl». I am still interested in the affairs of Hastings as it is home to me. Mrs Minnie Williams BANNER.......... Jane 14. 1S72 To the Editor: My deepening concern has exploded into outrage at the abuse pf our country’s welfare ADC and Food Stamp Programs Time and time again I have witnessed persons go on ADC, receive food stamps and reap unemployment benefits, all of whom need have done no more than put forth an effort to work, rather than to look for an easyhand out. Granted their are many who desperately need this aid. But. unfortunately, there are many more who abuse it. I am not directing this towards those needy ones 1 am wondering why there is not a more thorough in­ vestigation of those persons applying for these various programs’ Better to pay that tax money towards an honest separation of the needy from the greedy, rather than to give that tax money to anyone who feels like applying. It is high time for our govern­ ment agents in charge of these services to ask some questions and do some investigating. Amazing the number of men returning home after their wives receive their ADC checks. My chief complaints are: Under ADC. Number One: Those on ADCwomen with children need transportation, granted. But, I do not feel a brand new 1972 car is a necessity. How many or us with five children could ever have a new car—and be unemployed yet? Number Two:Children of ADC recipients ought not to be allowed to drop out of school. I would rather pay for that child’s education than to breed a new generation of ADC dependants. Number three: It is law that a woman whose children are all in school must go to work. Why then is a woman forty phis going back to college instead4 What does she really hope to gain from school? Furthermore, why la it allowed? Finally Number Fear: When a family has a home adequate for their needs, why are they moved into a larger, more elaborate and naturally more expensive home, just because they applied for ADC? Under Food Stamps: I believe a stipulation ought to be made that necessities only such as staples and meat and vegetables may be purchased I have repeatedly seen persons buy pop, peanuts, chips and dip, cookies and candy all at one time. Under Unemployment: This would be more difficult to con­ trol. but there are many who either do not try to find a job or do not genuinely try to hold a position. Great falsifying is being incorporated repeatedly in this i40gi am. In summation I charge there is a high percentage of illusive and illegal dealings per ued in these programs If investigations were undertaken it would be sur­ prising in the end to see the billions of dollars drop to below millions in these programs, simply because we would have fewer people using no—abusing them Thank you!

Slate-Hasttegs �Incinerator Causes Fire Invite Entries For Barry Area Golf Tourney Entries are now being received for the seventh annual Hastings Area Golf Tournament to be held at the Hastings Country Club on Saturday and Sunday, June 24-25. Golfers shoot into flights the first day, and compete in the flights on Sunday. The defending champion is Gene McAlester, who won his third straight championship in June of 1971 with a seven over par 151 for the 36-hole tourney. In winning last year, McAlester shot M-39-M-M to finish five shots ahead of Len Bums, a perennial contender for the championship. Bums was six strokes ahead of Rick Morgan. who had been the runnerap in 1979. Winner of the first Area Tournament in 1965 was Carl Peterson, who carded a 159 to edge Harvey Slater. His brother, John, followed him winning the 1966 event as a Hastings High senior shooting 147. John repeated as champion in 1967, tieing McAlester for the title with 148 after regulation play, then winning the sudden death playoff on the first hole. On that first hole, both golfers boomed long drives, then McAlester hit his second shot into the left trap, almost tight against the outside edge. Peterson hit the green. John, as a student and goner at Michigan State University, successfully defended his crown in 1968 with another 148. The next year McAlester's reign began. Presbyterian Youth in Work, Study Project Saturday, June 17, 18 senior high youth from First Presbyterian Church will leave for Cannon Ball, N.D., to spend 10 days on a study-work project at Standing Rock Reservation.

They will spend one night enroute at the First Presbyterian Church, Eau Claire, Wis. Firemen Urge All to Use Safe Methods When Burning Trash Each year in Barry County unnecessary Are losses occur from unsafe methods of burning trash. Ute damage pictured above was caused by using an Incinerator with large vent openings through which sparks escaped, igniting the adjacent garage and woodland area, and severely scorching the summer residence. Had the incinerator been of heavy metal or masonry construction with a cover, vent openings no larger than % inch, and placed at a reasonable distance from any combustible material, the fire would not have occurred. Burning to dispose ol debris other than in an approved Incinerator regakras a Banting Permit Such a permit may be obtained al no coal from yam local Fire Dipaltnit ar the Department of Natural Resources. Barry County Fire Agencies recognise the fire potential in a resort area where hones and summer residences are spaced so tightly that a-small vass fire may develop into a multi-dwelling alarm FIRE SAFETY TIPS 1. Know your Fire Department telephone number. z. Know your residence address and be able to describe it quickly and accurately. Resort residences are difficult to pinpoint 1. Haul your trash to a sanitary landfill or subscribe to a trash pick up service This will lessen the pollution in the air which is due to burning. ' t. Purchase or construct an approved incinerator. I. Make adequate preparations for controlling an escaping fire. «. Do not leave a fire tatattended 7. In all cases where a fire Is not contained in a prescribed burner, obtain a Burning Permit I.

H. <M7Z �Woodland Bj BHt> Curtta Whep you drive down a road, do you keep track of the speed limit sign* It ia bo easy to get a heavy foot and end up going faster than we should. This is especially true when going tnrough a small town. Speed limits are posted for a reason even though their is not always somebody their to enforce them There have been two girls hit by cars in this area recently. As a parent I am asking everybody to drive more careful. These children can dart out into the road in a flash and the best driver can not see them. However, we can still try to do our very best. We may think we are in a hurry but it would be much better to slow down and be careful The Woodland Elementary students under the direction of Mrs. Fred Christopher presented a fine musicale It was very evident that many hours of work had gone into the program They sang many songs and seemed to enjoy' every one of them. Our school system is very lucky to have such a devoted person on its teaching staff The elementary music was cut from the curriculum for awhile but was resumed in the second semester This is all the musical training some of these children get. The theme song for the program was "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing." It was obvious she does like to teach it and they want to learn to sing The entire audience even ended up singing. We should all try to keep singing and make it a better place to live. School is now complete and it is time once again for Bible School Most of the churches in the community will be holding classes for al) ages. The Woodland United Methodist Church will hold their school June 13-16 and June 20-23. Classes will begin at 9:30 and dismiss at 11:30. AB children in the com­ munity are invited to attend. Check with* the church of your choice for the dates of their school. Rev and Mrs Claude Ridley and family will be the guests of honor Sunday, June it, at a farewell open house Rev. Ridley has been serving as pastor of the Woodland United Methodist Church for the past few years while attending Farritt seminary.

Director of JPublic Services Michael Klovanich said that changing the angle to 45 degrees would necessitate relocating the parking meters. A change to 60 degree parking would not necessitate moving to meter posts. The City has spent more than $2,000 on painting the parking lines and installing the two hour meters. Councilmen postponed action until differences of opinion could be resolved Councilmen accepted the bid of Brown s Floor Service to install draperies at. carpeting in the Council Room at a cost of $658.42. They also accepted Brown's bid to install draperies on the existing rods in the rented front, upstairs offices if the suggested fabric would be resistant to the sun.

Halverson, commanding officer of the emergency services division, as part of the Federal grant from the Office of Emergency Preparedness for cleanup work resulting from the March 13lh ice storm which devasled the area. The total estimated cost of the cleanup was $150,092. An additional $2,500 was spent on the cleanup of the Courthouse lawn, Charlton Park. Woodland Township and Baltimore Township cemeteries. This cleanup should also be eligible for the disaster relief funds. Barry officials have requested a 30-day extension, on the cleanup operations which are now scheduled to ehd July 11. Engineer Jack Kineman said the extension is necessary to remove the many "hangers" (broken limbs hanging over the road that could fall on or into the path of vehicles). Cleanup operations have delayed normal road maintenance andf construction operations this ypr and road officials hopes the traveling public will take this into account when they are tempted to criticize the condition of county roads.

Jane 1972 I To the Editor: This is aimed at last weeks “disgusted citizen." Have you. sir, even tryed living on 837 a week? Just try paying for such essentials as light bills, bouse payment, heating bills, laundromats and doctor bills on this amount. This is what my husband received when he became unemployed Also, where do you get the idea that you get ADC while on unemployment^ You are ineligible for any form of aid other than food stamps while on unemployment. My husband has been more than seeking a job, he’s been begging! But, he has been told at the employment office and every other place he goes, that although the jobs are there, unless he is a MINORITY, VETERAN, or a WOMAN he is ineligible, no matter how much experience or how many qualifications he has. There were so many holes in your editorial that you wrote. For instance; (!) One is not allowed money for a car while on ADC or ADCU, it is not considered a necessity, no matter how far one lives from a store or bus stop. No woman on ADC could afford a *72. She’d be lucky to own a 1960. (21 No child should be allowed to drop out. More ADC & ADCU children should be encouraged to stay in, but not forced to For that would be an infringment on their rights as citizens. (3) Did it ever occur to you that a woman 40 plus was going to college through a program called WIN. WIN is specifically designed to give training or schooling so that they can get a good paying job and be off the taxpayers back (4) It’s funny, I .was on ADCU and I never got a more elaborate, mon? expensive home How come I’ve never heard of this? Nobody fixed our home. We fixed it and had to make do with what we couldn't fix ourselves. In summation I would like to say, if more of you “disgusted citizens" would get together with businessmen in this area and help to create more training programs open to ALL men and not just minoritys and veterans, and also find openings in local businesses for these people there would be less people on unem­ ployment. ADC, or ADCU to be "disgusted" about 1 agree each case should be looked into more carefully, Greater time should be given to each case separately and each complaint. If this were done it would stop so many false claims and so much over payment in certain cases. This money saved could go towards more staff to handle this work, thus creating more jobs and fewer unemployed people. Right? I would gladly trade houses, clothes, jobs, everything with you for a month. Then maybe you would understand what it is to scrounge for every penny and you'd be more thankful for the things you have and less likely to be so quick to write uninformed editorials like the one you just wrote. C.B. A disgusted unemployment receiver To the Editor: Although my speech is not as eloquent as Mr. Gordon Ben­ nett's, I echo his sentiments and would like to add a few of my own. 1 feel an issue should be made of the planter boles. They should remain where they are as a reminder of what our community tolerates. 1 feel everyone should demand that our Prosecuting Attorney and Police Department start getting the kind of support necessary to enforce the No Loitering Laws etc. That Would cure this kind of problem. Take the time to call your community representatives to let your views be known. Lets all stand up and be counted for decency Thank you. William A. Lake A Concerned Citizen �To the Editor: In reply to Mr. Kenneth Schantz s letter, there are several comments I wish to make. Mr. Schantz contends that it is “complete non-sense" to say “our government is openly without any shame bombing old men, women, and chirdren; homes, schools, and hospitals." I would like to say it is not non­ sense. It is a FACT. In case some people think I base my claim on rumors or hearsay, I will site a very few of my sources of in­ formation. On May 24th, CBS news stated that the Pentagon had let it be known that all possible targets were now officially fair game for U.S. pilots. This meant U.S. pilots were oked to bomb anything; including old men, women, and children; homes, schools, and hospitals. In the “Enquirer and News v on June 13.1972 it stated: “eyewitness accounts have confirmed that homes, schools and hospitals have been hit in addition to airfields and power plants.” In the “Enquirer and News” on June 14, 1972 was a story about the mud hut village of Phuc Loc, North Vietnam ; a non­ military target; which was bombed. And just several nights ago on the evening news, movies of bombed hospitals in North Vietnam were shown while a newsman explained the destruction of non-military areas he had witnessed. I hope this is enough to con­ vince Mr. Schantz that my statements are not “complete non-sense.’’ Now there is a second statement of Mr. Schantz's that I wish to clear up. I am not a Where it siariea-Koocri Schroeder, caretaker for the apartment house at 203 S. Michigan, shows where the fire apparently started and which caused considerable damage to the structure owned by Joseph “communist” and I do not preach the “communist line." I have no idea where Mr. Schantz got these feelings. I think if Mr. Schantz wouldreread my letter, he would find that my motivation is to let people know what President Nixon is doing in Vietnam and to ask the people of our Nation if they are going to continue to let President Nixon openly and without shame, bomb old men, women, and children; homes, schools, and hospitals. Are the people going to let President Nixon continue to lead our great nation down the road of dishonor and immorality? I think most U.S. citizens agree that our country had no right to be in Vietnam and nd justification for committing genocide upon the Vietnamese people. Ana I hope the people realize now, that Nixon is not ending our in­ volvement in Vietnam. If anything he is increasing our involvement. In November, we will be electing a President. We can vote for continued involvement in Vietnam and re-elect Nixon, or we can stop Nixon and end our involvement in Vietnam.

Wins Honors-Davld H. Wilcox. 731 W. Bond, a special education teacher in the local schools and an avid sportsmen, has a hobby of carving decoys and in the 1972 Spring World Championship Wildfowl Carving Contest held at Salisbury, Md., Dave won two firsts, two seconds, and two thirds and an honorable mention. The Salisbury World Cham­ pionship Contest is the largest in the world, with more than 600 entries in many wildfowl art categories. Left to right are Dave's Blue­ Winged Teal drake, which took first in class, second in marsh ducks and third in decoy show; his Bufflehead hen. which took first in class and second in diver ducks; his Lesser Scaup drake. third in Class, and Bufflehead -drake, which received honorable mention in class. Dave points out that wildfowl decoy carving is one of three truly American art forms. The others are jar.i and the whater's crimshaw. All the other art forms have a foreign history. During the early 20th century decoy carving was strictly for utility purposes in market hunting of ducks and geese. Market gunning was made illegal by Federal law prior of 1920. and the need for large decoy rigs became obsolete. Today, wild­ fowl carving is much more technical and most modern wooden decoys never see a duck marsh.-Banner photo Arrest of a 19-year-dd Hickory Comers man has cleared up seven burglaries in that area, Undersheriff Gordon Trick reported.

Each individual shares the interests of the other and visa versa, uniting both in a mutual bond of affection for the other person. While the citizens of small towns feel for each other like they were all in the same family, it must be remembered that above all it is a town and like all towns it has its problem. Such rroNems as hunger, poverty, and sickness inhabit its dwellings, and disagreements challenge the close ties of its inhabitants, although in jnost cases this strong tie is stronger than anger and a resolution is reached.

RC Cola By Mark Andrews Maple Valley High School President Nixon’s recent decision to mine the North Vietnamese harbors has received a lot of criticism from many Americans, and while all war is wrong I would have to say that he acted in the best interest of the American people. It is interesting to note that many of the same people who have demanded that the U.S. pull out of Vietnam are also protesting this decision which could have a big impact upon shortening the war so our soldiers could come home. It is indicisiveneas like this that has made America lose heart as well as their confidence in our leaders in government. It is not the fault of the leaders at all, but rather the propaganda that has ____________ *_______ been started by the very_ people_ who make this country great;‘its citizens. _ _ We would like to continue the Accent Page thl! summer. If possible, but we can only do II with your assistance. Please send all articles to The Hastings Banner. Debbie Wright Accent Editor Their lack of willingness to stand behind a leader who is trying to do what is right is bringing about a falling loyalty to their country, which they owe their very freedom of speech to with which they are protesting with. They fail to realize that these leaders are only human too, and make mistakes hut as far as the mining of North Vietnam’s harbors, I feel he did what he had to do in order to prevent the war from continuing indefinitely and thousands more men losing their lives for the cause of freedom and democracy. _________________ __ COME TO THE MICHIGAN'S FIRST FAIR The Superette JULY 1st thru JULY 4th 1972 205 N.

Mkh.4WS8. Answers from the Book of Books. Dear Uncle Aaron: Q. What about tex? A. Now that's an important subject that effects all of us. Sex is one of the most powerful forces in the world of people. Sex is essential. But let me add. it is muchlikf.f ire. Il is intended to be a blessing and a wonderful provision for us. Sex is not a tov to be played with, as you wish. It can be a curse to bring untold sorrow, heartache and even murder. To get the benefits you must abide bv the rules nr else like fire it will destroy your hopes for happiness, your home, and your life. Sex was invented by our Creator, God, who doeth all thingswell. . male and female created he them.” Genesis 1:27. Sex was ordained by God to serve a double purpose. First, it is for reproduction, that the human race may be continued. Second it is to bind husband and wife together for life thus creating a home where children will be protected and provided for. That's telling it like it is. Now let me mention what sex is for. It is not for children, the unmarried, or the irresponsible. Notice in man's Instruction book these two facts. Fornication (sex between the unmarried) and adultery (unfaithfulness among the married) are wrong (i.e. will do you great harm) “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceiveo: neither for­ nicators, .. .nor adulterers. ..” I Corinthians 6:9. When God says "thou shalt net” he is simply saving. Do thyself not harm. “Thou shalt not commit adultery.” Exodus 20:14. "Now the body is not for fornication.. I Corinthians 6:18 If you abide by the rules of the instruction book, the Bible, sex will bring you untold jov and blessing. Break rules and sex will destroy your happiness. "Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though you sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; thought they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool” Isaiah 1:18. "And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God." I Corinthians 6:11. This is the only remedy.

Selling By Number LUNCH STAND Alignments Many additional families in Michigan are now eligible for rural housing loans from the Farmers Home Administration. FHA Acting State Director Clark W. Hill announced. “In families where both husband and wife are em­ ployed." Clark Hill explained, ••the new policy permits half of the wife’s gross income to be excluded in determining whether the total family income is within the maximum limit for loan eligibility." For example, the husband is the principal source of income with $7,000. His wife earns $5,000. His entire income, plus half of his wife’s or $2,500, total $9,500. This is within Michigan’s moderate income level of $9,500 so the family may be eligible for a Farmers Home Administration loan. Newly-eligible families must demonstrate that they otherwise merit FHA financing, and that credit is not available from regular commercial sources. "The new policy will assist facilities in which the wife’s in­ come is needed to improve the standard of living. Note thpt if the wife is the principal bread­ winner, the rule does not apply.

No charge is made for normal wear, but what appears to be malarious destruction is another matter, as is lost books. Principal Wynes said “More are refusing to pay for willful destruction which does not seem fair to those who are trying to be good citizens. And it is cheating on those students who have to use the books next year.” First sections of the Maple Valley driver education program began June 19.

MailmenWill be ‘Motorized’ Here Starting July 1 Starting Saturday, July 1, Hastings mail carriers will be "motorized,” Postmaster Stanley Thompson has an­ nounced. Driving leased Pintos, the mailmen will "park and loop" to provide improved residential mail service with realigned routes. Postmaster Thompson em­ phasized that the time of in­ dividual mail delivery may be drastically changed, and there may be some inconvience during the transition period Another change is removal of the small mail collection boxes in residential areas. Carriers will collect any mail placed in your mall box. An improvement will be the placing of eight collection boxes tn the downtown area, four for local mail delivery and four for out-of-town. The collection boxes will be across from the post office on Mill Street; at State and Jef­ ferson; across from the City Bank on Court, and next to the National Bank on Broadway. Mail for Hastings should say "Hastings" and not just "City.’’ Local mall shotdd be placed in the "Local Boxes." Otherwise. Thompson explains, it will go to the Kalamazoo center and will be delayed. And due to the mechanical methods of sorting mail. USE THE PROPER ZIP CODE. "Proper city address. Zip Code and use of the" local drop boxes will enable us to give you the best possible service,” Thompson said. Any questions regarding the changes should be directed to the postmaster supervisor for Crotty Bros., the firm handling the hospital's food services. The cake was a delicious replica of the hospital. There were other cakes, too, along with punch and mixed nuts. Atty. Anderson, 68, said he and his wife had passed Pennock Hospital many times on their way to their Gun Lake cottage, but he never anticipated being a patient there. After he suffered a coronary at the lake May 29, he was taken to Pennock and his law partners were leary. They investigated to determine whether Anderson shouldn't be transferred to a Lansing hospital. They learned that if one is to have a heart attack, one of the best places to be is at Pennock Respite). Atty. Anderson, who said he has always felt good, was lavish in his praise of his physicians and all the hospital personal. <(1 haven't had a dull moment since coming here, although I've done a lot of sleeping." “I haven't had a bad meal, either. Their food is out of this world,” Atty. Anderson con­ tinued. "1 haven't missed a meal since coming here three weeks ago.” Atty. Anderson said he like parties, and that was why he threw one for the hospital staff and it was his birthday, too. "Sa often we take things for granted when we are so close to them, just as local people probably take their Pennock Hospital for granted," the at­ torney added. "I would like people to know that, as a stranger, I appreciate what you have here. Atty. Anderson concluded. The attorney said he has always had a "soft spot" in his heart for the area. A former law partner of the late Kim Sigler, he was Sigler's advisor while he was governor. He also played golf with Sigler, Charles H. Leonard and others at the Hastings Country Club. The Hastings Banner Devoted to the Interests of Barry County Since 1856 ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTEENTH YEAR June 28, 1972 25 Now’s the Time to Push Thornapple Into Natural Rivers Program A pilot project to preserve the Thomapple River has entered a vital, but important stage, that of citizen involvement. The Thomapple is one of three Michigan rivers being considered for preservation under Michigan's new Natural Rivers Program. Harry Doehne of the Depart­ ment of Natural Resources, says objectives of the program are to establish a system for preserving and enhancing the broad range of values of Michigan streams. Included are water conservation, ecologic, historic and scenic values and those per­ taining to fisheries and genera) recreation. Doehne adds, the Department of Natural Resources has the authority to designate recreational, scenic or wild rivers after studying their characteristics and determining the purposes which they should serve in the public interest. Under the program, rivers can be designated, "wildreness,” "wild-scenic” and "countryscenic.” The Thomapple falls under the "country-scenic” classification, which according to D.N.R., is a river in an agricultural or pastoral setting with some farms and other visible development, plus it is readily accessible to users. Why a Natural Rivers Program? Doehne explains it this way. For many years water and recreation resource management people and ob­ serving citizens have watched with concern the accelerating decline in the quality of Michigan streams, both in urban and in­ dustrial and in the northern areas of the State. The decline has been brought about by the desire to acquire stream frontage in Normem Michigan for private or com­ mercial development, and the desire of local units of govern­ ment to broaden their tax base. All this Doehne says, has led to promiscuous and uncontrolled development of stream frontage, causing among other things, problems of pollution, erodton, streambank breakdown, and in some cases conflicting uses. Strong action was necessary, Doehne pointed out, of the public were to preserve in reasonably natural condition, those remaining streams or stretches of streams which are worthy of preservation for their scenic and recreational values for present and future generations. The distinctive feature of the State’s Natural Rivers Program is the provision for protecting rivers through zoning the use of land adjacent to the river. Under the "country scenic” classification, the river bank would be protected by zoning a 100-foob wide "green belt.” Doehne says the "green belt" zone would prohibit among other things, cutting of trees and other vegetation, as well as banning any new construction that is not in conformance with management objectives. Planning is at the point.Doehne says, that D.N.R. needs to hear from the public. This program Doehne said does not involve money, but it does involve the ideas, needs and concepts of residents in order for the preservation program to ucceed. Officialsiof D.N.R. paddled down the Thomapple in April, and in Doehne's words, "they found the river very im­ pressive." Doehne is encouraging townships through which the river flows, to adopt resolutions of support for the project, and then work with D.N.R. and citizens to write details of the "green belt” zone. . In addition to gaining local governmental support, Doehne says, D.N.R. is looking for local support groups. Thur far two groups have taken a public stand on the issue. The county’s parks and recreation commission and the Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce have urged county consideration of the proposal. Auction for Drop-In Center The Hastings C.B. Club and the Michigan Wolverines Barry County Club have scheduled a benefit auction to beheld Sunday, July 16, at the Hastings City Bank lot. AH proceeds are to go to the Hastings Drop-In Center. Persons having articles to donate may call 374-8351, 852­ 9576, 721-8046, 623-2874, 945-4239. and 945-4786. « CONCERT WEDNESDAY The first Hastings Qty Bank Concert will be held on the north side of the Courthouse lawn at 7 p.m. Wednesday, June 28, directed by Arthur Steward Jr^ Let’s see a big turn-out’.’!

Strong action was necessary, Doehne pointed out, of the public were to preserve in reasonably natural condition, those remaining streams or stretches of streams which are worthy of preservation for their scenic and recreational values for present and future generations. The distinctive feature of the State’s Natural Rivers Program is the provision for protecting rivers through zoning the use of land adjacent to the river. Under the "country scenic” classification, the river bank would be protected by zoning a 100-foob wide "green belt.” Doehne says the "green belt" zone would prohibit among other things, cutting of trees and other vegetation, as well as banning any new construction that is not in conformance with management objectives. Planning is at the point.Doehne says, that D.N.R. needs to hear from the public. This program Doehne said does not involve money, but it does involve the ideas, needs and concepts of residents in order for the preservation program to ucceed. Officialsiof D.N.R. paddled down the Thomapple in April, and in Doehne's words, "they found the river very im­ pressive." Doehne is encouraging townships through which the river flows, to adopt resolutions of support for the project, and then work with D.N.R. and citizens to write details of the "green belt” zone. . In addition to gaining local governmental support, Doehne says, D.N.R. is looking for local support groups. Thur far two groups have taken a public stand on the issue. The county’s parks and recreation commission and the Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce have urged county consideration of the proposal. Auction for Drop-In Center The Hastings C.B.

C.-------------------------if was on July 4, 1776, that the Continental Congress adopted the Declaration of Independence, a document written bv a talented young Virginian named Thomas Jefferson This date has become accepted as the official birthday ftf the United States of America and has been celebrated as such with eacn passing year. The passagehas caused the historical significance of this day to lose much of the sharp focus of other years. Parades, patriotic rallies and oratory that used to keynote this day are pretty much things of the past. Nevertheless, July 4 is still a day when most of us should give at least a passing though^ to the stirring time when this new nation, being carved out of virgin wilderness, decided to go its way independent of Great Britain, the mother country. However, the first official Independence Day celebration was not held until July and this by the Continental Army encamped the New York area awaiting an expected attack by a British army under command of Gen William Howe that had been brought down from Halifax by a powerful British fleet under command of his brother, Aidm. Richard Howe. Washington had no way of knowing u'hen and where the main attack would be delivered and the New York area was too extensive to be protected on every front by the limited resources at his com­ mand During the year since Washington had been in charge of the Cbntinental Army, no battles had been fought. The British had been forced fron Bostonby siege operations during which there were a few skirmishes and some cannonading. But not once had the mettle of the Continentals made up mostly of short-term volunteers, been tested in open combat with the British regulars, considered at that time to be the finest military force in the world. Now things would be different, since Howe and not Washington held the initiative. It was the British who were In a position to select the time and place of combat. That was the situation when, on July 9, Washington received official notice of the action taken by the Continental Congress as well as several copies of The Declaration, itself. So, among the orders posted for that day was the following: The Hon The Continental Congress, impelled by the dictates of duty, policy and necessity, having been pleased to dissolve the Connection which subsisted between this Country, and Great Britain, and to declare the United Colonies of North America, free and in­ dependent States: The several brigades are to be drawn up this evening on their respective Parades, at Six O’clock, when the declaration of Congress, shewing the grounds and reasons of this measure, is to be read with an audible voice. z The General hopes this important Event will serve as a fresh incentive to every officer, and soldier, to act with Fidelity and Courage, as knowing that now the peace and safety of his Country depends (under God) solely on the success of our arms: And that he is now in the service of a State, possessed of sufficient power to reward his merit, and advance him to the highest Honors of a free Country. The Brigade Majors are to receive, at the Adjutant Generals Office, several of the Declarations to be delivered to the Brigadiers General, and the Colonels of Regiments. So, as six o’clock approached, all the men who could be spared from active duty assembled on the parade field with freshly-cleaned uniforms and their heavy muskets with bayonets fixed. Then, after an interval of time, from the front of each brigade and in varying tones and at different moments, voices proclaimed: ‘When in the course of human events. . . Since there were no publie address systems at the time, it is probable that not all of those present were able to properly hear and get the significance of the smooth-flowing words being read to them. However, the indictment of the King for all his alleged misdeeds met with approval. Then came the concluding sentence: “And for the sqpport of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor '’ After a pause, some of the com­ mands came through with three rousing cheers and in others a great shout There is a tradition that Washington heard the declaration read as he sat astnde his horse and with the troops around him in a hollow square However, not basis for this nice little story has ever been found. Chances are. that with the British threat developing, he was concerned with administrative details and was not present during the ceremonial reading. He knew and approved the contents of the document.but at the moment, there were important considerations that demanded his full time and more.—Where and when would the British attack? • The Declaration of Independence is a great document but except for the steadfast courage of Washington and his Continental Army, it would have become merely another piece of paper. It was Washington and the manner in which he developed as a commander under pressure that eventually gave the immortal words of Jefferson real historical significance The price of freedom comes high-in 1776 as well as in 1972. Eight dreary and discouraging years of hostilities were required to win independence from Great Britain There were times when the Con­ tinental Congress faltered, when the Army faltered and when public support of the Revolution faltered Amid all these uncertainties. Washington remained steadfast and it was his leadership that kept the united colonies from falling apart in the contest with Great Britain So. on July 4. the birthday of our nation, all of us can afford to give at least passing consideration to the courage and effort that made a United States of America possible. Despite a public clamor against increased taxes, the chances are that taxes wifi increase. Despite overwhelming sentiment for the Federal government to “holo the line” on expenditures, the out­ pouring of Federal funds will probably increase. It is an over-simplification of the problem to blame everything on Congress even though Congress, especially in presidential election years, is very sensitive to spending pressures. Basicallv, however, it is public demand for more federal aid that keeps Congress in a spending mood. The same people who demand economy are also to be found among those who are backing greater expenditures for medicare, for welfare programs, for farm subsidies, for social security payments, for aid to education, etc The sum total of all this is tremendous pressure for increased Federal spending. People want and are demanding more things from government. The idea still persists that a Federal grant is a free gift-a real bonanza, so to speak. Actually, of course, the Federal government creates no wealth; it has no private resources of its own: before it spends, it must collect from its citizens in the form of taxes, both direct and indirect-or resort to deficit financing which fuels the fires of inflation and destroys sound values for everyone In reality. Federal aid is not a free gift. Rather it represents an 4. THE HASTINGS BANNER......... June 28. 1972 IS? West Stale Street. Hastings Michigan 4SOS* Published every Monday at Hastings.

It does little good to expenditure to which we all contribute in the long run through direct and indirect taxation which, among other things, has a tendency to increase the cost of production, the cost of services and thus, in effect, devalues the currency we use as a medium of exchange. Federal aid, is in fact, a costly gift-not a free one. Yet, the conception of the Federal government as a gigantic Santa Claus with bagfulls of free “goodies’’ for distribution is an idea that dies hard. Federal taxes can be stabilized or perhaps even reduced, whenever the public ceases to make increasingly great demands on the Federal treasury. Will that day even come? If so, it is not yet in sight. Although about 80 percent of the American public considers the Vietnam conflict an unfortunate involvement, more than 75 per cent feel that the U.S. should not pull out until American prisoners of war are released. This, we believe, reflects a basically sound judgement that has not been swayed by the super-dove iermiads of the media which support the idea of an immediate pull out and trusting that Hanoi will do the right thing by our prisoners of war. Undoubtedly Hanoi would do the “right thing” as Hanoi sees it and this would probably turn out to be something entirely different than Americans had in mind. Hanoi used the last halt in bombing, not to bargain in good faith for a peace plan, but rather as a stalling operation to gain time for a massive accumulation and deployment of supplies and war material to support future offensive operations. No interest was shown in the release of pri soners of war Rather, the prisoners were used as pawns to force acceptance of terms dictated by Hanoi. On the basis of this, why the optimistic belief that, if America suddenly withdrew all Army. Navy and Air Force units stationed in Indo-China, Hanoi would release all of the prisoners of war being held in North Vietnam More in line with reality is that, after all American forces were withdrawn, the prisoners would continue to be held as pawns to blackmail the United States into acceptance of harsh toms, including monumental reparations payments. The war is not a popular one. But the fact is, we are there and as a nation we are responsible for the men sent there, some willingly and some unwillingly, to serve their country. When a nation such as the United States forgets these men, especially the prisoners of war and runs away from trouble in the hope of buying a ven uncertain peace then we will have lost something that may never be regained ’ Thus, we believe, it is a hopeful sign that despitei the discontent with the war, at least seventy-live per cent feel an obligation to stay involved in the war until American prisoners of war are released Only thirteen per cent were in favor of ending the involvement im­ mediately regardless of the fate of the war prisoners and twelve per cent were “not sure.” bitch about it. . .and two minutes time each morning would pick it up. Clean, well laid out, fresh displays in the windows, painted trim, no cheap posters are items that cost little and might just entice someone to throw their next empty chip bag into a trash basket rather than the gutter. Perhaps these same young people might have a suggestion as to a gimmick or paint design that would make everyone more aware of the trash can’s. It might be a little wild but so what as long as it gets the job done. I would hate to see the town give up a true parking mall when it is so close to reality. The biggest gripe is the 90-degree parking, and again with some thought and co-operation on every ones part it might work out well. I’ve never hear a single complaint about 90-degree parking at Thrifty Acres where aisles are no where near as wide But is is a PARKING LOT with no thru traffic and that makes all the difference. You can’t com­ bine a parking lot with a 4-lane highway. It has to be one or the other. Court and West Mill Streets should be handling 95 percent of the thru traffic but everyone is in the habit of using State Street from years and years of practice. We simply need to finish the job with fences, trees, planters, etc. placed in the mall to discourage thru-traffic and break this century old habit we all have. The sheer beauty of such a project would serve as a reminder tnat State Street is now State Mall. Give the Darker the right-of-way and suddenly 90degree parking has advantages that 45-degree parking does not. A few months ago local mer­ chants collected $6,000 almost overnight in an effort to buy off the city parking meters. The plan failed and the money was returned. Why can’t it be re­ collected now and used to finish a fine job started? $6,000 to $10,000 would buy a lot of beauty for State Mall. Fences, trees, maybe a fountain or two. . .maybe a few benches for 'the mall and the Court House lawn, too. I’m sure anyone would find them more comfortable than the curb. Perhaps merchants would be willing to buy silly ads on them to finance the cost. Wild paint jobs, nutty signs (“Street Car Stop’’-. “North Pole 6,256 miles” could add color and originality to the mall and all within a nominal budget and limited time. Such a plan could be fully operational in six weeks. But the biggest thing needed is co-operation/Not name-shouting, not finger-pointing, not tons of thousands of dollars. . .just some cooperation. A beautiful parking mall is well within reach in Hastings, if we all start sweeping off the sidewalk, washing a window, buying a tree or two or maybe a bench, lighting one little candle, doing just a little bit MORE than our share. A bunch of kids just went out and repaired the planters on their own hook. As merchants, we certainly have a much bigger stake in State Street . excuse me. . .STATE MALL. . than those kids do.

The all-stars are selected with each coach submitting names of his players he thinks are deserving. The league prexy compiles the list, then sends one to each coach who votes-but he can’t vote for his own men Tern was the league's 7th top hitter, hitting 369 in 38 times at bat. Norns was the league’s Hop pitcher, with an earned nm average of 0.78 pit­ ching 45 innings in eight games.

He reports, though, that the DNR has replanted most of Barry County’s designated trout streams Most of these fish, he says, are undersized (4.5 in­ ches long) and recommends that fishermen use only single hooks when fishing them. When you catch a small fish, simply snip the line off as near the nook as possible so that you won’t injure the fish. Brent reported that a 23inch splake was taken from Sugarbush about a month and a half ago. Perch \ have been hitting wrigglers and red worms at Gun Lake, and trout have been biting on Coldwater River and Hill Creek. The cold weather and over­ casts are the best time to hit our small streams. Also, it would be wise to get permission from the landowners before crossing thenlines.

Julis Warns on Cereal Beetle By Arthur Streby The most practical method of controlling the cereal leaf beetle, a devasting insect affecting all cereal grains but particularly destructive to oats is the in­ troduction of Tetrastichus Julis, a small wasp like parasitic insect that lays its eggs in the bodies of cereal leaf beeUe larvae. Last year some of these parasites were released on the Velderman farm at Middleville, and Wolfram Fechner, Hastings. Then last week County Ex­ tension Agent Jim Pelham along with Lakewood Vocational Agriculture Teacher Ron Stevens and three of his students went to the M.S.U. Kellogg farm at Hickory Comers to hear about the latest in cereal leaf beetle control and to collect parasitized beetles for transplanting. The beetles have now been tran spi an ted into fields of oats on the boys’ home farms and on the farms of Norman Sandbrook of Nashville and the Ward and Phil Bender near Middleville. Those attending the session were disappointed to hear of the difficulty in getting the beetle to multiply and spread, but were gratified to hear of the parasites effectiveness within a small area. Crop rotation will play a big part in now fast the parasite spreads, but it appears that in many instances it will spread no more than half a mile in a year. It would be great if some of the parasites could be established in every section of the county and it looks as though they will nave to be placed in at least a couple of locations In every township if the beetle is to be brought under control within a few years. To insure successful tran­ splanting, sites are being selected rather carefully. Collecting the parasite is time consuming making favorable transplanting sites a must. Briefly, a strip of oats that will not be sprayed this year growing next to a f ield that will be planted to wheat this fall with both normal and late maturing oats to be grown in adjacent fields in 1973. The parasites were also Top Judge to Handle Black And White Show Gregg Hardy of Tipton, an outstanding member of the Michigan State dairy judging team last year, will judge Barry County’s Black & White show to be held at LaDIne farms on Saturday, July 8.

A new show class of in­ termediate heifers will be added to split the former senior heifer calf class into divisions of calves that will be about the same size and age. Bulls owned by the Barry Sire Proving Association will be on exhibit as will the heifer calf being given by the Junior Barry County Association as part of their money making project. Trophies, ribbons or rosettes will be awarded. Four-H youths with registered Holsteins have a special in­ vitation to participate. Guests should arrive in time for the 12 noon picnic lunch.

The rose chafer is especially fond of rose buds and leaves, but it can also do serious damage to grapes, cherries and a number of other plants. This insect is about ‘A inch long and has a reddish-brown head and body with a black un­ derbelly. Its whole body is covered with short yellow hairs that give the beetle a fawn colored appearance. For control, apply two sprays of Malathion of Seven, 7 to 10 days apart, starting when the insects appear-usually in early June. Thoroughly cover the whole plant.

Ask Uncle AARON Send your questions regarding “people problems” (moral or spiritual subjects) to Uncle AAron. Rl Hastings. Mich. 49058. Answers from the Book of Books Dear Uncle Aaron: Q. I have heard people talk about the unpardonable sin. What it it? A. In the broad sense this question may cover three cases or three different attitudes. First-There is the case referred to by Jesus in Matt. 12:22-37. Read the whole passage carefully and note that Jesus said in verse 30 “He that is not with me is against me;..Having said that he continues “. . .all manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men. . neither in this world, neither in the world to come.” Blasphemy is speaking against or discrediting the work of the Holv Soirit. here called the Holy Ghost. The Holy Spirit is God. See Acts 5:3-4. The Holy Spirit’s work in the world now is, ”. . He will reprove the world of sin. and of Steousness. and of ement:. . John 16:6-11. Holy Spirit also works in and through Christians. He provides the spiritual drive and spiritual fruit in the lives of chnstians. • * But the fruit of the Spirit is love. joy, peace, longsuffering, gen­ tleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance. .

The Baum's had been spending some time visiting with tneir son and family, the Larry Baum's of Hastings, and daughter and family, the Robert Stoly's of Watervliet. En route home they decided to head West for some sight-seeing. The Baum's, pulling their trailer, had stopped Friday evening. June 9. at a trailer park near Mt. Rushmore (1% mUes west of the Keystone area). It was raining when they went to bed. and some time later Lawrence heard strange noises, and thinking it was a raccoon, got up to investigate. When he opened the trailer door, he found that water was already above the trailer step About this same time, a young man came wading through and warned them to get out. The Baum’s got into their car and moved to an upper level in the trailer park. Muddy water was already starting to ooze over the carpet in the trailer. From their upper vantage point, and remaining in their car, they watched the flood waters the rest of the night. Although the trailer was moved somewhat, miraculously, it was not washed away. The flood waters subsided sometime on Sat., leaving the roads in this area completely washed out. People had to be airlifted out by helicopter. Families were given first priority, and it was sometime on Sun. before Lawrence and Ethel were lifted out and taken to Custer. S.D.-where they spent several days in a motel. The Baum's have now returned to the camp grounds where their car and trailer were abandoned It required a walk of lx< miles up the mountain, over limbs and debris, to reach it. They are living with people in the area until roads can be rebuilt, enabling them to get their car and trailer out. This will take approximately 4 to 6 weeks. There is some water and mud damage to their car and trailer, but the car is driveable and the trailer can be towed. The Baum’s feel that in view of all the tragedy around them, they are very lucky people, and just thankful to be alive. Sgt. Newman Earns Second Silver Star Total when completed 200 hockey.

Gossip, has for some reason, a unique method of arousing public sentiment for or against a principle, a person, or even a way of life. It can affect whole nations, if used effectively. This was apparent through the rise of Adolf Hitler to power after the crushing defeat of Germany in World War I. Propaganda is, for all intents and purposes, an ef­ fective way of spreading false ideas, and could in some in­ stances, be referred to as gossip. Hitler promised the Germans that he would put Germany back on its feet, and this promise was what eventually won him the dictatorship. Rumor has played an im­ portant part in world politics.

Steeby added. "Our oat crop also looks very good, despite the fact that it was late getting started. Wc have many very good corn fields, too, but there are some that the grasses got started because of the wet Spring which prevented our tillers to get on the fields Some fields do look good. “Our second cutting of alfalfa is coming good," Steeby con­ cluded. According to William Vanderbeek of the Michigan Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee, wheat farmers should take a long look at their anticipated *72 crop. They are reminded that 1972 wheat may be eligible for price support loan only if the producer had signed up under the Wheat Set-Aside Program. Use of the price support loan program permits producers to obtain low-cost financing at harvest and to hold their crops, such as wheat, until later in the season when the market price is usually better. 98 Hastings High Juniors on Final ‘71-72 Honor Roll Ninty-elght Hastings High iuniors earned places on the honor roll for the fourth marking period of the past school year, with six achieving all "A’s", according to Principal Robert VanderVeen.

The new "park and Mishler says the task forces are the result of the county planning commission’s desire to write a plan to aid in controlling community growth through regulated land use. The planning commission realizes that something must be done to maintain a desirable balance among the many demands on the county's land resources. Task forces are being organized according to political boundaries and each planning commission member is responsible for mobilizing per­ sonnel to serve. It is the feeling of the commission, Mishler says, that Local citizens in each area of the county is in a better position to conduct a comprehensive study of their resources and future land needs. Task forces will analyze their existing land uses, natural resources, topography, and trends in business, industry, agriculture, recreation, em- two _______ year. ’,000 research project is under the guidance of Grand Rapids planning con­ sultants Williams and Works Once task forces complete their work, according to Mishler, all data collected will be used in roughing out a county-wide land use plan A broader and more indept plan covering tran­ sportation and housing will come at a later date. One of the first items of business for several of the task forces, will be study of the proposed Department of Natural Resources* man to designate the Thomapple River as a "country scenic river" under the Natural Rivers Act. The act provides for land use planning in an effort to preserve land along and adjacent to the river. There is no simple solution to the land use problems facing Barry County or Michigan. In fact, there is probably no solution which is best in every respect. Public discussion of the alter­ natives is desirable and hopefully local citizens will see the need for planning and respond with their ideas and support of land use planning. - �Last-chance savings.

C.-------------------------With the center lines removed in the two blocks on State Street between Church Street and Michigan Avenue, it will be easier for motorists to visualize and use this area as primarily a parking lot. The two blocks are not intended as through streets and drivers working their way through should give those In process of parking or backing out from parking stalls the right of way. This is the same courtesy drivers customarily use in connection with any parking lot, large or small. Furthermore in parking, motorists will not feel constrained to observe center lines while turning into parking stalls. A driver should feel free to turn wide to Uie leit before swinging to the right for parking This maneuver will give an easier approach for straight-in parking-and also make it easier for most drivers to come nearer to the center between the parking stall lines. As mentioned previously, the advantage of 90degree parking is that it makes any open stall on either side of the street available for parking for motorists driving either east or west along State Street. With angle parking, whether going east or west, a driver is confined to open spaces on one side of the street only. Hie parking meters in these two blocks on State Street have been so spaced that either angle or 90 degree parking can be used-it will be merely a matter of repainting the lines Straight in parking offers so many advantages, that we believe it should be given an extended and fair test. 4 Also, we believe that during this trial period, warning tickets rather than fines should be issued to cars improperly parked This is a courtesy that would benefit Hastings far more than the extra value of the fines collected. In our opinion, the Social Security rise of twenty per cent, ap­ proved overwhelmingly by both houses of Congress, was a totally irresponsible action that could have happened only in an election year The fact that it was tacked onto a crucial bill extending the Federal debt ceiling, combined with the size of the approval vote in both House and Senate, made a Presidential veto meaningless. Representatives and Senators running for re-election, will, of course, use this increase to tell the old folks how concerned they are with their welfare. They will omit to tell, of course, that millions of dollars in new taxes will have to be levied to cover the cost of the increase in payments. Thus, the end result, will be no gain in living standards for the seniors-maybe even a slight loss-ano the inflation spiral will continue. An indication of the manner in which fiscal responsibility /was sidetracked in favor of politics was the fact that the increased benefits go into effect four months before there is any tax increase. Thus there will be a momentary illusion of getting something for nothing. The basic tax rate will move upward by only .3 percent, however because of changes m the base income. Social Secirity taxeswill rise twenty-seven percent next vear for those earning $10,800 a year or more Since corporations have to match employee contributions dollar for dollar, many companies attempting to weather through (Juring these difficult economic times, may find this extra burden too nuch to bear -and. when companies go under, employment decreases. ,\ll in all. this latest Social Security increase is an example of political irresponsibility that we hope Congress will see fit to aban­ don Essentially, this increase is just another example of playing election year politics with public money Glancing backward over the past few months, that included such epic incidents as the Summit meeting between President Nixon and the leaders of Mainland China; the invasion of South Vietnam; the mining of Haiphong Harbor; a resumption of U.S. bombing of military targets in North Vietnam. and the Summit Meeting between the President and Soviet leaders in Moscow, one can’t help but be impressed with the many media (Press and TV) predictions that simply did not materialize. For example, the President felt justified in ordering the Haiphong Harbor prior to the scheduled Summit Meeting in Moscow. That was a tough command decision based on more complete in­ formation than was available to anyone else in the United States. Yet, hardly had his image faded from the screen, than the pur­ veyors of gloom and doom began to cut hime to pieces. Eric Sevaried of the CBS team, stated flatly: ”1 would suspect that the Summit will not come off.” Marvin Kalb and Charles Collingwood of the same network voiced similar opinions. Collingwood stated Flatly: “Certainly the Moscow Summit meeting, from which so much has been expected, is now in jeopardy.” Kalb declared “One casualty of the President's mining and blocade may well be his upcoming Summit in Moscow Those who began packing and dreaming of caviar in Russia are beginning to unpack and returning to some dry cerial." NBC s John Chancellor remarked that: "The Summit is in jeopardy today.” White House correspondent Richard Valeriani, asked “How can they receive him (The President) now?" Edmund Stevens-of NBC observed: "The President's announcement will be pretty hard for them (the Soviets) to swallow it practically killed the prospects (of a Summit) ABC s Ted Koppel said. “1 don't see how he (the President) can go” Even the prestigeous New York Times was caught off base, with an editorial that characterised the President's action as a “threat to the peace of the world" and inviting "Soviet retaliation.*' “A big question mark hangs over the projected Summit." the Ti/ies editorialized, and “there remains no certainty that it will take place " (It was a Times editor who once stated flatly, that there was no such thing as a Ho Chi Min Trail On this, he was quickly corrected by one of hts own was correspondents> Tom Wicker, who plays deep left field on the Times staff, dubbed the President a "true emperor" and worried about the world turning into an "ash " It was another columnist. Joseph Alsop. who put matters in true perspective when he said; “The Soviet response the mining of Haiphong Harbor was about as tough and stiff as a length of sadly overcooked spaghetti.” Those who made such dire predictions before giving themselves any chance to be guided by developing events or world opinion, did their country a severe disservice. It was not good journalism of professional reporting in any sense of the word. As a matter of fact, the Summit in Moscow was productive far beyond expectations. The Soviet leaders obviously respected a leader who had the courage to act ; who did not backtrack in face of trouble. All along, it is now very obvious that the President had a better conception of what he was doing than did the big-name TV com­ mentators 4......... THE HASTINGS BANNER..........

A dashing look at the attire would maybe keep our attention and we would see the resembelence in the dress today. A drastic price change would be uncovered in the price of livestock.

In 1920, the Grand Rapids Bookcase Co. aave the Fair Association a ^beautiful 1100 Walnut China Closet, Jacobean period. The Hastings Table Co. gave a $75 solid Quartered Oak, 54-Inch Extension Dining Table with carved feet, in order to help the fair.

Cheryl Owner-Manager ‘Moonlights ’ By Growing Good Corn and Beans Bill Fox of Vermontville has 125 acres of the 300 acres of corn he has planted this year which stands feet tall. Bill is moonlighting his “crops project”, which also includes 100 acres of beans. He is manager and part-owner of the Citizens Elevators In both Vermontville and Nashville. His moonlighting, he says, is because with a family of ten youngsters-lhree girls who will be in college this fall he needs the extra money. This is his second year raising crops and he rents the fields near Ver­ montville. Com planting started about April 25. This "extra-good” field of 125 acres was planted May 8. ‘•It’s come along fine, but what it really needs now is some good hot weather.'* The ground for this field was plowed in the conventional manner. However better than half of the 300 acres he chisel plowed. The difference is that while conventional plowing means turning all the dirt under, the chisel plow uses, a three-inch tine about every 12 inches and only a little dirt is turned down. The chisel plowing method saves considerable time as one can cover the field much faster. Fox attributes the extra good field to the fact it is a light sandy soil, that this is the first time in years it has been plowed, and that he used a "gooa" fertilizer. He also used a weed and grass killer right after the planting. Thus he will not be cultivating any of his com. Of his 100 acres of beans he said musical, "thanks”, Bill says "to the encouragement of their, mother." Two of the girls have attended summer camp at Ipterlochen, and three girls were in the top 10 in their graduating class Fox grew up in Pewamo, and worked in the elevator there before coming to Vermontville 20 years ago. He is a veteran of World War 2. He has taken an active interest in Vermontville, and among other things has served as president of the Ver­ montville Maple Syrup Festival Corporation. With the Fox youngsters practicing on musical in­ struments. and the usual hobbies. School work and other activities of this family they have no time for television-so they have never hhd one in their home. VALUABLE COUPON “ENOZ" Mon.-Sat 9-6 linton Fri. 9-9 103 W.

He will have to cultivate his bean fields. Working closely with his far­ mer-customers he admits he can utilize some of their better cultural practices. He also ap­ preciates the chemists’ knowledge of the best weed and grass killers for his crops, all of which makes his moonlighting iust a bit easier.

Chinese decore was used for this exciting and brilliant event, and in authentic Chinese tradition, most of the guests, attended the festivities tn san shoes This was not only com­ fortable. but practical, because the place is carpeted and there were no slivers. The Clayton Branstetters arrived in costume, everyone should have, but because o< the mild downpour (rain that is) during the last hour of the affair, a Chinese swim suit would have been the best bet. Mrs. D. C French wore an Indonesian gown for the special occasion.

This window will be just as’easy for her grandchildren to open Because it’s an Andersen Window. It will neither stick nor bind. Nor warp. Nor rot. Nor rust. Nor corrode. It will last through many generations of active living. Probably last longer than the home you build or buy. It’s the way Andersen Windows are made. Select wood milled to extremely fine tolerances. Treated for lifetime protection from termites and decay. Glass, hardware, even screws and nails specially designed for each window type. Each carefully assembled by skilled hands dedicated to the Job of building fine windows. Each presicion built to serve you for life with all the maintenance-free comfort and operating ease it had the day you selected Andersen Windows for your home. Of course, there are added values in owning Andersen Windows. Things like- welded insulating glass. that eliminates the need for storm windows.. .gives two fewer glass surfaces to keep clean. Or removable grilles that pop in or out instantly for easier window cleaning. Or perhaps most important, weathertight construction (up to 5 times tighter than ordinary windows) that means savings of 15 percent or more each year on heating and air-conditioning costs! Maybe that’s why our best salesmen are the folks who’ve lived with Andersen Windows. There are some in almost every neighborhood. Talk to a few before you build or buy. Next best, visit Barry County Lumber Co. Ask to see all the beautiful styles (hundreds of siies). Ask for a com­ plete demonstration of the quality features that make Andersen Windows worth much more than the little extra you pay. THE HASTINGS BANNER.........

For some pets, a light meal before riding is advisable. Others travel better on an empty stomach, says Dr. Ralph M. McGovney. A few short rides before the actual trip will give you some idea of your pet's needs. If your pet is excitable, you might give him a mild tranquilizer. The medication, which can be obtained from your veterinarian, may also have antinausea properties. Before leaving, have your pet examined for minor skin and ear infections, fleas and ticks. Check with your veterinarian about pet ordinances where you plan to visit. Some states require signed health papers. Canadian customs regulations require proof of recent vaccination against rabies.

Everheel, have put in many hours of hard work to bring Green Valley to Hastings. Included in the cast are Jen­ nifer Johnston as Martha Mears, an archeologist who falls in love with Tinker Smith, Everheel’s bumbling mechanic, played by Bill Collins. Bill loves rehearsing that kiss. Bringing a touch of reality to the story are Eva Friese, the creamy representative por­ trayed by Teresa Wilcox; and the settlers uprooted by the flooding of Everheel’s dam: Hip and Mamie Cooley played by Tom Fulton and Betty Jorgeson. Rufe and Sarah Thomas played by Bruce Smith and Joyce Miller, and Shade Stokes portrayed by the incomparable Don Anderson. On the other side of reality are Eldon's risen ancestors including spry old Grandpaw Berry and sharp-tongued Granny Berry, played to the hilt by Emerson Cairns and Naomi Bradfield. Dick Aumick is Calhoun, Dennis Myers is Ransome, Tom Fulton is Jeb, Bruce Smith is J.D., Ray Merrill is Lonesome, and Betty Jorgeson and Joyce Miller round out the group of rough and rowdy spirits. Of course, the play is spiced up somewhat by Prudence, the witch gal. She is "brought back" by Kathy Dunn. Ray Merrill is the director and Jim Scottjs the experience stage^ crew manager. He has greatly helped put the realistic but "nottoo-realistic” set together. You see, Green Valley is not just any valley. And it’s not just a place; it’s a state of mind. Things happen there that any sane person would call impossible. People and spirits disappear and appear with just a sip of "milk.” Vegetables grow to gargantuan proportions. A six-foot carrot­ impossible? Not in Green Valley. Plan on spending an en­ tertaining evenijig at the Hastings Summer Theater production of "Green Valley" at the Leason Shirpe Memorial Hall at 8:00 p.m. on July 19 and 20. Tickets are available from any cast member or they may be purchased at the door. "Green valley”; it s a play and a place and it’s something you and your family won't want to miss. Central Garage.

July 16. at the Coats Grove Church. Church School at 9:30 h.m. followed by the Worship Hour at 10:30 a m Rev. Eric White, executive minister of the Michigan Association of Christian Chur­ ches. will give the sermon. Basket dinner at noon. Bring your own table service. The 1:30 p.m. service will give each participating member of a church from the former Woodland Church of the Brethren, the Coats Grove Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) and others who have actively been participating in the parish program, the opportunity to re-affirm their faith and sign the Charter Membership List. Rev John Tomlonson, Church of the Brethren executive secretary of Michigan will lead in a service of installation of the new church officers. Rev. White will conduct the Communion Service which will climax the celebration. The Woodland Church of the Brethren and the Coats Grove Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) have been working together in a joint pastoral program for eight years. Rev. Charles Gibbs served in this capacity for three years. The present pastor, J. Ira Metzker, arrived Sept. 1, 1967, continued the separate worship services for two years when the two churches voted to meet together for Church School, Worship, Family Nights and various activities using the two buildings on alternate months and later changing to three months in each. They now meet in the Coats Grove Church and will return to the Brethren Church Sept. 1. The Federated Church will work under one local church organization and one budget, yet keeping the two state and national denominational ties sharing equally in outreach with each. The new church board extends a welcome to all former mem­ bers and friends of the com­ munity to participate in the celebration. “To those of the community who are seeking a church home we warmly invite you and know you will enjoy the fellowship of “A Friendly Country Church with a Welcome to All,” Rev. Metzker said.

"There probably is no child, or adult, who cannot learn at least a little more today than he learned yesterday and since reading is the key that can unlock the door to knowledge it is an important one!"

"As adults we real often think that older children don't wan| to be read to, but they do." The book, finished in April 1971, was published late in February 1972. Mrs. McKercher said there is a big trend to "open schools" meeting in groups to teach each other, especially in the Detroit area, and they use her book regularly. "What You See Is What You Get” is divided into sections. Part I is devoted to word meaning skills and deals with picture and phonetic context clues, word families, synonyms, antonyms, homonyms, syllabication, building sentences and figurative language. Part II deals with comprehension skills, using specific words, reading for main ideas, anticipating out­ comes, perceiving relationships and distinguishing between fact and fiction. Part III is a study of special skills, organizing to remember,. organizing ideas in sequence, note taking, use of reference materials and reading maps, charts and graphs, while Part IV relates to creativity in reading, expanding interests and helping the child to develop habiLflftnich will take him from robding to writing to reading.

She served as school commissioner in Monroe county from 1937 to 1939. Her husband, Leonard D. McKercher purchased a drug store in Nashville in 1939 and the family moved -there.

Brown spoke during ■ public luncheon at the Hotel Hastings, sponsored by the Hasting* Area Chamber of Commence. “We'll Ret good, responsible office holders, he said, “when we start thinking about the long­ term good for everyone instead of our own self-interest” The congressman, who is completing his third term in the U.S. House, cited the recently passed social security increase as an example of irresponsible legislation **ln voting a 20 percent in­ crease." Brown said, “we have eliminated any chance of reforming the social security system. Any chance of correcting the equities was lost with the passage of the 20 percent, across the board increase." Brown favored a 10 percent benefit increase while using the remaining available funds to make social security fair and equitable. The higher payroll tax necessary to finance the benefit boost does not take effect until January, 1973 At that time, the present maximum 5.2 percent social security tax for employers and employees on the first 99,000 of income annually will rise to 5.5 percent on 910,800 and. one year later, to 5.5 percent pn 112,000 The present I ISM maximum tax on an employee will rise to 9594 in 1973 for a worker making 918.800 or more and to IMO in 1974 for anvone making 912,000 or more.

Rotarians Offered Suggestions When ‘Turned Out To Grass’ Prepare now to retire TO something, not FROM something was the theme of the film recording of Leon F. Montague’s address “Turned Out To Grass" which was presented at the Hastings Rotary Club meeting on Monday noon, July 3, at the Hotel Hastings Montague, a past officer of Rotary International, retired at age 65 to find that his lawn was his "Gold Mousetrap" and opened the door to a new career with Scott The sneaker’s topic, “Turned Out To Grass," was inspired by a favorite horse of his cowpunching days. He said that when his horse got too old' for hard riding and roping he was not shot but turned out to gra&s where he developed into a fine buggy horse and gave many more years of useful service. The speaker said his interviews with people in 41 states who had licked or been licked by the problems of retirement pointed to signposts which say: -If you aren't happy where you are, you are not likely to be happy anvwhere-a different climate and different neighbors are not the answers -Uselessness is a shock the retiree cannot long endureboredom kills more retirees than anything else. ■Get off the bench and out of the rocker-exercise body and mind, for it’s use it or lose it. -Be active in church, com­ munity and political life-do something for othdrs. -A sound financial program is needed but money alone is not enough -X-ray yourself to see what it is that you nave long wanted to do­ or what hobby-or what aspect of community service-or what in­ terest in the field of fine arts-or what mechanical urge-you have had. or now have, or might havewhich could be your ideal retirement activity. -Begin now-take time to develop your special interests and talents, so that when retirement day comes you will be prepared to retire TO something, not FROM something. If a man is to make his retirement years the best years of his life he must not only have something to do-but he must: -Do something he is proud to do,Something he can do well,Something that will give him recognition. But most of all he must do something that will give him the joy and satisfaction of knowing he is doing something for others. This, the speaker said is one of the paramount requirements for a happy and rewarding retirement. Where do you go for Old Fashioned Savings ■ On ROOFING and SIDING!

July 19. 1972 Penny’s Has New Sleepwear For Youngsters The broadest selection of flame-retardant sleepwear for infants and children yet offered is featured in JCPenney’s Fall and Winter 1972 catalog. Copies of the book are available at the catalog sales desk in the JCPenney store in Hastings Inclusion of seven pages of flame-retardant sleepwear in the catalog is a reflection of the Penney Company’s overall goal of compliance with the flam­ mability standard issued by the Department off Commerce in July. 1971. In line with the Company's goal, Manager Al Fuller said: “We are offering for the Fall and Winter 1972 line of infants' and children’s sleepwear only merchandise that complies with the flammability standard. In addition, we are going as far as practical for the new line in providing flame-retardant children's sizes above 6X even though they are not covered by the standard." Fuller said that the company expects to have sold out its other sleepwear by Oct. 1. Beyond the 6X size specified by the Department of Commerte standard, the catalog offers flame-retardant sleepwear up to size 16 for girls and 18 for boys. Fuller added: “We feel that parents should be aware that this merchandise, offering an added degree of protection, is now available in the broadest assortments yet." The fashion message for women contained in the catalog is that freedom will continue to be the keynoted for Fall and Winter. While promoting the individual approach to fashion. JCPenney experts also are emphasizing the more classic dress Among in­ dividual looks which will be important, they believe, are “layering," textures, and haberdashery The “layered look" will con­ tinue its preeminence, with sleeveless sweaters and vests being worn over turtleneck sweaters and man-tailored shirts Interest in texturessmooth with smooth and smooth with rough-is also expected to remain strong for fall and winter. A smooth shirt may be worn with soft corduroy jeans, or a smooth shirt may be combined with rough tweed bottoms. The haberdashery or men's look, achieved by wearing a mantailored shirt with a tie. will also be prominent.

THE HASTINGS . H.. BANNER........ July 19. 1972.......... 3 �EDITORIAL ------------------------ by R. M. C.------ ----------------- :— Removing the center lines from the two blocks of State Street in the Mall area appear to have resulted in a definite improvement in the parking pattern Only occasionally now does one find an im­ perfectly parked car When angle parking was in effect before Hastings adopted the parallel system, there were always a small percentage of imperfectly parked cars that interfered with the parking in the neighboring stall. In other Words, the angle pattern does not insure perfect parking-and it limits a driver to a choice of space on one side of the street only. More and more drivers are beginning to appreciate the fact that, with center line markings removed, it is perfectly permissible to swing well to the left before turning right into a parking stall. Doing this, makes it much easier to center a car between the marked lines­ and the City has been more than generous in allotting plenty of width for each parking stall. Drivers are beginning to accept the two Mall blocks as primarily a parking area-and that was the origin#! intent. A great majority of the drivers are bo be congratulated for the courtesy being shown pedestrians The co-operation here has been excellent Ear all practical purposes, we now have one retail area rather than two areas divided by a speedway. The tie vote on the Hastings City Counsel which withheld im­ mediate support for a “Natural Rivers program whose long range objective is to preserve the natural beauty of at least parts of the Thornapple River, does not represent an antagonistic attitude toward the project, we have been informed. Rather, some of the councilmen thought they needed more time to acquaint themselves with the facts and issues involved We hope that is the case and that the project will be given thoughtful and sympathetic consideration. So many natural areas in Michigan are being destroyed by developments of one kind or another that real and intelligent efforts will have to be started very soon to preserve choice portions of what is left Barry County should consider it a privilege and an opportunity that the ’Thornapple River was selected as one of the areas for preservation People who remember the Pine River as it was in the early 1950's and have been therr in recent years will know what can happen in a comparatively short rime to deface a once beautiful area. Trie Pine Rivqr is no longer scenic and is as overbuilt with cabins, shacks, cottages, etc . that area is now about as wild as a city boulevard-and in many places as filthy There is no proposal of this sort free of any and all criticismsome legitimate, some not What should be kept in mind, however, is the overall objective and that the preservation is not being done primarily for those of us living today but rather to pass along to future generations some of the outdoor natural beauties that ail of us have enjoyed The people through their representatives must act fast to get and keep ahead of big-time developers because there is not much time and that time is running out. The U.S. Supreme Court by a 6 to 3 decision, ruled that the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals should not have permitted itself to be sucked into the maelstrom partisan politics by ruling in a con­ troversy brought to a head by competing factions contesting a ruling by the credentials committee at the Democratic National Convention in regard to the make-up of the California delegation. If this can be taken as a warning that the High Court, as presently constituted, intends to concentrate on purely judicial functions in­ stead of assuming quasi-legisa five authority as well, it will be a victory for the American system in that it is on line with the concept of a careful division of authority between the executive, legislative and judicial branches of government. In brief, the Court jpointed out that such appeals constitute matters over which the Convention, itself, has authority to act In other words, the decision of the credentials committee is open to review and final action by the delegates, themselves. None of the “wrongs” charged in the appeal were “Constitutional wrongs.” Thus, the matter was one far the delegates to adjust without Court in­ terference This same Court also refused to interfere in a controversy­ regarding an Illinois faction headed by Mayor Daley of Chicago and an opposing reform group. Here. loo. the Convention delegates will have the authority to give the final answer. No real issue of voting rights or equal protection under the law was involved in the contests between factions of the California and Illinois delegations Thus the Supreme Court had no legitimate right to interfere Both the Court and the U.S. Constitution benefited from this sterling example of judicial restraint If the Court had decided to over-step its legitimate authority (as the Warren Court often did' there is no department of government vested with the right to veto an improper Supreme Court action. Both the Legislative and Executive branches of government serve as brakes on their respective use of authority-and the Supreme Court has the power to rule as to whether or not Legislative and Executive actions are in line with provisions of the Constitution. However, the only check on actions of the Supreme Court is the self-restraint of the justices, themselves, in avoiding matters that are rightfully in the domain of the Executive and Legislative departments In the Warren Court, this restraint was often lacking Both government and respect for the Court suffered as a result. Now. if the present attitude of the Court continues, it will regain the confidence of the American people However, it will probably take many years to undo the damage already done by the Warren Court. Talking of lack of judicial restraint, by what authority does a Federal judge take it upon himself to order Detroit to buy 295 new school buses at a cost of more than three million dollars and then order the State of Michigan-meaning you and I-to pay for them? Yet. that is exactly what Federal Judge Stephen Roth has done even though the constitutionality of recent busing legislation is in process erf review by the Supreme Court The total cost of the busing operation, including salaries for the drivers, extra garage space and maintenance will run well over five million dollars Think what that sum might do if used for improving the quality of education in many of the needier areas. That, not busing, is what majority of parents in those areas desire most. ‘ Judge Roth's expensive order will not improve the general quality of education one iota-in fact, the added multi million financial dram could make it difficult to maintain the quality of education at its present level. Perhaps, we should not be concerned at something like this happening in Detroit's metropolitan area. But. the fact is. is something as illogical as that can happen in Detroit, it could also happt n right here in Barry county-especially if Federa* judges are 1 THE HASTINGS BANNER......... July 19. 1972 To the Editor: In the June 28th tissue of The Banner, there was an editorial by Mark Andrews of Maple Valley High School in which he ex­ pressed views which seem to be strange to the young people of today. . In a couple of days I will be 91 years of age. and I surely would like to snake his hand and congratulate him on his vision and thinking. No doubt his classmates think he is a "square” so I have been, but for me I would rather be a “square” than a "rounder ” Please send this letter to him or print it. If he would write me. I could discuss it further. Sincerely, Herbert Morehouse Delton. Mich. •To the Editor: I really enjoy "reading your paper, even more so now than when I paid $4.00 per year I never miss reading letters from wour readers, nevertheless this is the first time I have expressed my opinion. All though we might never solve all world problems, this country was supposedly founded on the principle that the majority would rule, and each individual would have his own equal rights. Some where this theory has been swept under the carpet. My dad once told me never to argue politics or religion because you are in for trouble. I believe this, but some one once said stand up and be counted. This I also believe. / Now lets get down to Brass "TAX”. On June 21 you printed a letter signed Disgusted unem­ ployment receiver. I want to say I agree with her 1 have a boy who Saduated in 1971-he had a good j with a local firm but due to his low seniority, he was one of the first of many to be laid ott work, this was no fault of his or the company. With an honest effort day after day he looked for a job. He was turned down for the same reasons the lady slated; minority groups, Vets, women and part time college help. 1 agree that returning Veterans should be entitled to first chance at jobs. They have served time for us here at home, even though not all agreed with the gov. Klicies and ways of doing things. it they serviced our country and did not go to Canada. But why should the Federal Gov also StateGov.be allowed to tell business or corporations who they can hire, and what per­ centage of each they must hire. This is a free country, our per­ sonal managers know what skill our Vets have. Women, minority groups, race, creed or color should not count. What these companvs want is skill and a good worker. But the government tells them who they hire and the percentage. This is unfair We the people are the government. Many people are now unemployed. I ask you how many more are now­ unemployed under the Nixon administration than before he took office I read somewhere htfw many millionaires do not pay federal income lax-why? During the depression my dad and mother raised seven children they lost their farm and what little money they had in the bank. So they moved to Hastings which was five miles. My dad got a job shoveling coal days and with the help of us older children, washed houses and mowed lawns for those who had the money. My dad had pride; too much pride to ask for help. But now limes have changed and we all hope for the better Now we have food stamps and things which are for the people when they are unemployed and down on their luck. After all we the people do pay for this over and over in taxes. I believe each case should be checked closely, many people don’t want to work even if a job is offered to them; and are making off with our tax money. And what about our taxes, some of your younger readers probably will not believe this but some where in the vicinity of 1937 our first Federal income tax was imposed on the working class people, now we have state In­ come tax, sales tax, gas tax, hidden tax, etc. Just suppose you worked in Grand Rapids living and working in the city. You make around $120 a week with do dependents. Your city tax would be around $1 20 (this could happen in Hastings), State tax about $3.80. F.I.uA. permitted to get away with such high-handed and arbitrary rulin/s as Judge Roth made in Wayne Coiaity There is now underway a movement to recall Senator Hart and it will get exactly nowhere. We are among those who often find our­ selves in disagreement with Sen. Hart’s political pronouncements and actions. However, the right of political disagreement in one of the things that America is all aoout. Senator Hart, in our opinion, is a sincere and honest individual who. despite his extreme liberality, is also a very canny political manipulator who can compete with the best of them in pulling the right strings al the right time. That, too. is a practical political necessity if one expects to win and retain a public office-especially a major one. Sen. Hart has been honest with the public, never attempting to represent himself as anything other than he is-a dedicated liberal who stands well left of center. Thus, no matter how much we disagree with many of the political views of the Senator, the basis for a recall simply does not exist and will not. in our opinion, receive anything save very minor support. Republicans should not permit themselves to become overly encouraged by the bitter feuds thatdevelopedin connection with the Democratic National Convention at Miami Beach. Bitter fighls and feuds are standard procedures for the Democrats in Presidential Year maneuverings Thus, so far as Republican fortunes are con­ cerned. the Democratic temper tantrums at Miami mean nothing. Although their “boiling point” is low, the Democratic ability to congeal into a compact mass is little short of phenomenal So. the best Republican strategy is to “run scared,” pul little faith or confidence in popularity polls, get organized from precinct levels up and really go to work. Republicans, we believe, have enough ability and sound talking points of their own to conduct an effective campaign. The muddle at Miami should not give the G.O.P a false sense of con­ fidence. Republicans, we believe, are in a position to win, if they base their strategy on their own strength rather than depending on a Democratic collapse-which is unlikely to take place. Every since the Warren Court interfered in matters pertaining to the make-up of Congressional and State Senatorial and Represen­ tative districts. Gerrymandering has become a way of life. In the latest deal, for example, Barry county, or rather parts, thereof, will be represented by two Congressman, three State Senators and two State Representatives Township and county lines have been disregarded Residents in the numerous splinter areas may find it increasingly difficult to make their opinions felt in Congress or the Legislature. For all practical purposes, they lose their political identity. In our opinion, it was a serious blunder to start the practice of breaking up county units in the process of rebuilding new districts. It brings about a situation where it will be much more difficult to create and main­ tain a local identity and therefore local interest in politics. That is unfortunate, since, except for Presidential Years, there is too little local interest and concern in matters political already around $6.30, Federal withholding tax $17.15. This totals up to 28.45 or take home pay of $91.55. Suppose you buy a new car. pay 3 thousand. $120.00sales tax, plus who knows how much hidden tax. You must buy gas. more tax, you buy license plates. Don’t forget groceries 4 per cent sales tax­ property tax. Lets recap this New car, gas. groceries, you better have money in the bank or good credit. Where docs this tax money go? Welfare. A.D.C.. road im­ provements. etc. On top-of these taxes the gov. tells us the people what we can do. Our land is zoned. If I want to build a com crib I must get a permit.’ They tell me I must get a permit to park a house trailer on my land and they can tell you you can’t even park a trailer This is my land and I pay taxes on it. Yet this is a free country. Now lets talk about State land. This is our land the people of the state, they payed for it through taxes. Now they have closed off all trails. Good, but for who7 I won’t believe it is hurting our wild life by driving these old trails. When my boys were young we would go within a *4 mile from home to Glass Creek even take a lawn mower and mow the grass along the creek spread a blanket out and have a picnic. The 4 bovs would fish, catch chubs, wade the creek, we would all have a good time, with little expenses. Now what happens? My oldest boy just got out of the Air Force after four years of service. He wanted to take his wife and my two year old grandson to his favorite spot at Glass Creek. The road or trail was closed off. This is our land. How can they do this to us. lets stand up and be counted". Another thing the last time I voted the issue on the ballot was should 18 year olds be allowed to drink (I voted for this). I was defeated. Now they passed a law where 18 year old can drink and are our gov. elected officials doing what we the people asked for? Let’s all vote in Nov.

This is often been ignored. Apparently I have not been generous enough I also have a small private pond, the result of digging out marl. The pond contained some fish including a few- bass that could only be described as small. I wish now to thank the sport­ sman who slipped in and fished the pond out. Inis takes the load off our backs of having to throw­ in an occasional frog to these fish and also eliminates the need of the grand kids to stand around and watch them.

But some times this is the only way you can see a child after dark. Most of the time the child is dressed in something dark, with no lights of any kind on their bikes.

In order for the vaccine to be effective, the Rh-negative mother should be vaccinated within 72 hours after the birth of her first Rh-positive baby, or following a miscarriage or abortion. The first child bom to negative-positive parents is usually not seriously endangered because the placenta effectively separates the two blood cir­ culations. However, if the Rh negative mother is not vac­ cinated immediately after her first Rh positive baby is bom, the antibodies can form to threaten all future offspring with Rh disease The tragedy of non-use of the vaccine is reflected in the fact that it is not effective after the mother has already developed antibodies. In California citizens secured public health legislation which makes it mandatory for hospitals to test for Rh incompatibility. The legislation also makes Rh blood disease in a newborn infant a reportable disease. I think Michigan should initiate similar legislation If you want to help, write to your congressman today, asking for this legislation. Let’s do all we can to eliminate Rh blood disease Let’s do it for the children. Very truly yours, Mrs Anita Barcroft Pre*. BCARC < For Your Dining Pleasure... WALL LAKE INN on M-43 at WALL LAKE...

The boys, with Scoutmaster Harland Guernsey. Assistant Scoutmaster John Barnett and others, are coing to the famed wilderness island off Munising in Lake Superior to qualify for a historic site Scout award. The boys plan to reconstruct a hoist or crane on the original site of the Hudson Bay Fur Trading Company's post-a replica of the hoist used for unloading bundles of pelts from Indian canoes. The boys’ crane will have its pivot pole in the same hole on the same rocky ledge used by the Hudson Bay Company's hoist. The hoys have set their goal on the coveted award, which requires pre-approva) by the national Scout office. They must study the history of the site, camp in the area, and hold a ceremony al the site that is worthy of local publicity. The original trading post and crane have been relocated on the Munising Courthouse lawn. The big. ruggedly beautiful island is still unspoiled after centuries in the mainstream of the North Country. It is now owned by the Cleveland-Cliffs Iron Company, which has given the last of the old fur traders' cabins to the Alger County Historical Society. The Chippewas regarded the island with great reverence. It was, they thought, the form of the deity who created the nearby Pictured Cocks, and who was taking a centuries-long slumber in the lake, wearied from his work of creation. “Gitchee Minis" they called it-Great Island. The Chippewas* name for the Grand Island area, •’Minising,” meaning “Place of the (Great) Island,” has become the familiar "Munising" of today. Early days of French rule saw important fur trading activity at Grand Island, and the Northwest Co. built a post there. In the 1820s the American Fur Co. established a trading poet on Grand Island Harbor, and it was operated until the mid-1830s. One of the most significant events in the long history of the island took place in July of 1840 when Abraham Williams moved his family there from Illinois and established the first permanent settlement at Williams Landing. With some buildings salvaged from the abandoned American Fur Co. buildings, he built a home and several cabins for the lodging of traders who soon made his settlement a favorite stopping point on the south shore of Lake Superior. The landing prospered and so did Williams. Shortly after the tum-of-thecentury. Cleveland-Cliffs acquired most of the island and restored the buildings at Williams Landing, making unique and exclusive resort. Guests came from throughout the Midwest. In 1902.

The present Smith-Doster building was built in 194243 I In 1955, Frank Doster died and Bill became sole owner. The Ford garage presently used has been enlarged four times. As business went on. Bill was joined by his two sons, Bill Jr. and Dale D. In 1953, Bill Jr. joined the staff as General Manager and then Vice President of the Corporation. Dale and Bill jr. jjecame owners of the Ford Agency purchasing the business from Bill Sr., who maintains his position as founder and President of the Board.

Guenther and his aides are completing the operating budget for the 1972-73 school year following passage of the State aid bill, and a public hearing will be scheduled next month. Board of Education members were informed at their regular monthly meeting July 10. Supt. Guenther reported that operational control for the past school year had been excellent. With a budget of some 13.2 million, it was exceeded by $8,466.74 or .25 percent. That was with the district starting the year with an $84,516.21 deficit, and finishing with a cash balance of $25,960.13. The total makeup was $110,496.34. Supt. Guenther explained to the board that he was studying a request from the Barry County Intermediate District to provide transportation to all special ed programs, including the EBI Sheltered Workshop at Lake Odessa, the Chidester and other special schools. He said the cost appeared to be about $23,000, plus the cost of about $16,000 for buses. The study is to go to the Intermediate District, and possibly back to the local board. Another private school may be opened this rail in the old Quimby School. It would be Sonsored primary by parents of e Baptist faith, Supt. Guenther reported. He also explained that the Woodland Christian School is expanding, and that the sponsors had written the Hastings District a letter of thanks for past year’s cooperation. Supt. Guenther explained that private schools must comply with State curriculum requirements, and that the local district must visit the facilities at least once a year to verify this compllcince. The Hastings schools may have new administrative offices. Supt. Guenther said the original plans for remodeling the junior high library had been dusted off and, with the board's informal ap­ proval, a study is being made to determine whether the renovation costs could be in­ cluded in the coming budget. The tentative cost estimate is $17,000, and that might be lower if no speed was put on the project. Then school maintenance people could do much of the work themselves. The district has about $6,000 in the old building and site fund. Supt. Guenther said operations would be much smoother with key administrators in one office complex. All board officers were renamed at the July 16 session: Robert Godfrey, president; Dr. John Walton, vice president; Richard T. Groce, treasurer, and George Wibalda, secretary. Mrs. Norman Jack (Judy) Lenz, elected in June, is the new member of the board. She suc­ ceeded Mrs. Erik von Reis, who did not seek another term. Board members approved installation of a new dimmer panel for Central Auditorium stage, accepting the bid of Fisher Electric for $5,795 Fisher's bid. _ZZ MORE YOU’LL X_2 VISIT OUR STORE AND SEE Robert Miller explained, in­ cluded rewiring building leads and will be done prior to Sept. 1. The lead wires, according to the report, hadn't been replaced following the big stage fire in 1949. Miller said that when the new panel and wiring is completed, all of Central School will have been rewired with the exception of some other auditorium wiring. The classrooms were rewired previously. During the past school year one student was knocked unconscious while operating the present dimmer panel. Trustees approved purchase of a lot in the von Reis development at a cost of 93,000, for the building trades 1972-73 home. The school also will have an option to pur­ chase two more at a cost of $3,250. The lots are along S. Broadway with sewer and water, and have 145-foot frontages and are 157 feet deep. FFA Members Attend Camp For Leadership Five members of the Hastings FFA chapter spent July 11 and 12 at the Region 5 FFA Leadership camp at camp Kett near Tustin. The program was designed to help new FFA officers to be more effective. Sessions included: the in­ dividuals officers role, setting and meeting chapter goals, personal appearance, motivating new members, and tiie many and varied programs in the FFA. Attending were Steve Moore, Tim Wood, Brad Eldred, Jace George and Bob Baker along with chapter advisor, George Hubka. The board approved a contract with Mary Windes, Rl Hastings, as a half-time 6th grade teacher at Pleasantview. She is to receive her BS at Western Michigan next month. She has been working towards it since 1959. A 1956 Cedar Lake Academy graduate, she was a substitute teacher here last year. Home Economics teacher Mrs. Fred (Jean) Hauser was granted a years leave of absence for personal reasons. education meeting that Miss Christene Emery had resigned as the high school art teacher. In­ stead it should have been stated that she was given a year’s leave of absence, that she might return to college for more training.

THE HASTINGS BANNER-------- July 1». •»« �New Book by UM Prof. Can Help Young Baseball— Pros Did mighty Casey strike out and throw Mudville into sunless Sloom because wrong eyeaminance or Ill-timed blinking prevented him from hitting the baseball? That suspician exists after reading an informative new booklet, “What Research Tells the Coach About Baseball," compiled by Guy G. Reiff, professor of physical education and athletics at The University of Michigan. Published by the American Association for Health, Physical Education and Recreation, the 40-page booklet accomplishes several things: —It provides statistically verified and performance tested techniques that can help young players and even professionals. —It explodes a great many myths that encrust conventional kiseball strategy—the reliance on sacrifice bunts, starting pitchers, and clean-up hitters appears to be mistAen, for example. —It should help keep the fires going for many years in the Hot Stove League.' The Cincinnati Reds and Kansas City Royals are among professional baseball teams that have already requested copies of the booklet. Some highlights from Prof Reiff’s study: Batting—Select the heaviest bat that you can swing the fastest and utilize these four basic fundamentals: 1) Use a dramatic, fast, and powerful rotary action of the nips; 2) Straighten the leading forearm immediately at the beginning of the swing and utilize a quick and powerful wrist action, 3) Use a fairly stable head action, coupled with a tracking action of the eyes; 4) Keep the length of the stride constant on all pitches. Researchers have found these factors virtually universal in such great hitters as Ernie Banks, Ted Williams, Stan Musial, Henry Aaron, Willie Mays and Mickev Mantle—no matter how different their various batting styles may ap­ pear to the average fan. Pitching—The relative lack of research on pitching leaves a great deal of mystery surroun­ ding a factor generally conceded to be 65 to 85 per cent of winning baseball. Prof. Reiff says a review of basic body mechanics unique to pitching indicates that young K' ers should avoid these : 1) Throwing or pivoting with the foot on top of the pitching rubber, thus losing body stability and speed of forward movement derived from pushing off the front of the rubber (Newton’s third law, “for every action there is an equal and an opposite reaction"); 2) Incomplete extension of the throwing arm in the wind-up. resulting in a smaller arc and less velocity; 3) Stepping across the body with the striding foot, resulting in a closed rather than an open position before release­ affecting control, velocity, and follow-through while increasing risk of soreness and injury; 4) Landing on the heel rather than on the forward part of the striding foot, with similar results. A pitcher who can throw hard and impart 1,800 revolutions per minute to the ball can make it curve up to 17.5 inches, research indicates. Strategy—Statistician Earn­ shaw Cook in his book “Per­ centage Baseball" documented his conclusions that baseball teams should: 1) Always start a relief pitcher, remove him for a pinch nitter on his first turn at bat, then substitute a starting pitcher, 2) Avoid the sacrifice bunt, which significantly decreases the chances for scoring; 3) Use the hit and run Lots of Action In Pde Wee Baseball Girls Ecology Team-One of Hastings newest organization is the Girls Ecology Team, spon­ sored by the Barry County Sportswomen's Club. The club is affiliated with the Michigan United Conservation Clubs and Mrs. Doris Wimberly is the adult advisor. Their first outing was an "over night" at the Sportswomen's Clubhouse at Podunk Lake. play, the most powerful and least exploited strategy in baseball; 4) Arrange the batting order so that the eight most productive players appear in descending sequence of ability. Juvenile Players—Competition in organized boys baseball programs, subject to continuing controversy, appears to have no adverse effect on norma! physical and psychological development. It is recommended that pitchers of age 9 to 14 years pitch no more than two innings a game and that curve balls not be thrown prior to age 15. Good superivsion is essential, and guidelines for baseball programs are available through the American Association for Health, Members included (front row. left to right) Pamela Eckman, vice president; Debbie DeCamp, treasurer; Lori Rodriquez, president. and Celeste Wroblewski, secretary.

Even the most modern tools and equipment for automobile repair help and service will not make a mechanic. They only *" u-, “ a“ mechanic do his job right. The mechanic understands the machine and its function, He can trace the entire chain of movement through „ the machine, the relationsh.p of each part to the next and to the whole. He has learned the importance of precision in measurement, in movement and adjustment. And he has learned many other things that no one who is not a mechanic could begin to list. We believe that something still further is required of a qualified mechanic. He should have a profound respect for the machine he serves and a compelling desire to make his work as honest as the finest steel in it. He must care. And at Hilltop Gulf we care.

Barry County now has 17 adults working at the facility and exGnsion will allow many more ndicapped adults from our area to participate The cost to the taxpayer to maintain a handicapped pecson in an in­ stitution is $24 per day, while maintaining a person in a sheltered workshop costs the taxpayer $8 per day. and, at the same time, allows the individual handicapped adult the pride of employment and a place in our society as a contributing member of the community.

Franklin Huntley, well-known local attorney who formerly served as prosecuting attorney of Barry County sub* mitted a "Letter to the Editor" in answer to a Banner editorial concerning the "Natural Rivers* program that we believe deserves front page space. Mr. Huntley has evidently given the question considerable study and is. of course, much better prepared io understand and interpret the full significance of legal jargon than Is one tacking a background in legal training. The letter, we believe merits careful study and strongly suggests that plenty of time be taken before committing any of our units of government to this program.) To the Editor: It was with surprise and dismay that I read of the Editor's call upon our local representatives to act fast in connection with the socalled "Natural Rivers’’ program. Frankly, I feel we have already become the victims of fast action at the state legislative level, and perhaps go-slow action by the local entities of government might be in order. While it is said that Barry County should consider it a "privilege and opportunity” to have been chosen to do the bidding of the State, such privilege and opportunity can well be likened to that afforded by ancient kings to their lovelier chambermaids. Perhaps the invasion of right contemplated by the Natural Rivers Act of 1970 will excite only those having property fronting on the river, but the thoughtful citizen will understand that what the State may do to the rights of one it may do to another. This statute and the suggested form of local zoning ordinance must be read to be ap­ preciated; but among other things it: (1) Permits Actual acquisition by lease, easement, or "other means"; (2) Provides for the Natural Resources Commission to expend funds for the construction, management, maintenance and ad­ ministration of facilities in the designated area; (3) Provides that county and township governments are "en­ couraged to enact zoning laws consistent with the Commission’s determination as to the uses of land along the river, except within the limits of an incorporated municipality' ; (4) Provides that any local zoning ordinance or Commission Rule "may limit or prohibit” the placement of structures of any class or designate their location with relation to the water’s edge, to property or subdivision lines and to flood flows and may limit the subdivision of lands for platting purposes; prohibit or limit the cutting of trees or other vegetation within 100 feet of the water’s edge; and may control the lands within 400 feet of the waler’s edge; (5) Finally, showing its teeth, the Act provides that if local governments do not zone in accordance with its "encouragement” within one year the State may do It. Thus: "If the local unit does not, within 1 year after notice from the commission, have in full force and effect a zoning ordinance or interim zoning ordinance established under authority of the acts cited in section 11. the commission, on its own motion may promulgate a zoning rule in accordance with section 13. A zoning rule may also be promulgated if the commission finds that an adopted or existing zoning ordinance fails to meet adequately guidelines consistent with this act as provided by the commission and transmitted to the local units concerned, does not take full cognizance of the purposes and objectives of this act or is not in accord with the purposes of designation of the river as established by the com­ mission.”; (6) Provides that the authority of the local government or the Natural Resources Commission shall be "liberally construed" in favor of the authorities. (7) Provides for legal action by the authorities against a lan­ downer as to any infraction of "the rule”; (8) Provides that while existing conditions or buildings not conforming to rule may be continued, the local authority or the Natural Resources Commission may require "completion, (Continued on Page Twa) Showmanship Champions-- (left Co right) John Hooker, 10, Winning showmanship honors at junior member honArs; Tim the 1972 Barry County Fair were Curtis. 13, junior champion, and General Finance Installs Latest In Technology Beginning Aug. 1, General Finance Corporation al 140 W.

(Does anyone think he will, struggling as he is to meet his share of the valuation arbitrarily imposed on the County by the Tax Com­ mission?) Pursuant to these provisions the Natural Resources Commission has prepared “Zoning Guidelines" for “discussion purposes only,” of which I have a copy. The guidelines contain a "suggested" text of proposed zoning law’s to apply to “Natural River Zoning,” this being divided into zoning for “Wild Scenic Rivers" and "Country Scenic Rivers." . Presumably these contain the minimum restrictions for which the Natural Resources Commission would settle, without imposing its own directives, and includes: (a) Limitation of uses; (b) Set back of structures: 200 feet from water's edge" or out of sight, whichever is greater." in a “Wild Scenic River” zone; with 100 feet minimum set-back in a “Country Scenic River zone"; (c) Timber cutting limitation; (d) No cropping or stock rearing within 50 feet of river's edge; FRIDAY <e) Prohibition of cleaning out any "natural plant succession" within 50 feet of river’s edge; specifically, “no cutting or mowing"; a (f) No buildings on land subject to flooding or on land with less than 6' between finishes grade and ground water table, except by special permit and provided: any fill is replanted; no erosion allowed SATURDAY to enter the river; and al least 50 feet of the natural vegetation is maintained alorffc the river; (g) Disposal field to be no closer than 200 feet of the river and at least 4’ above waler table; (h) No access roads or trails allowed within 50’ of the river’s «lge Examination of the Act discloses quickly that it has been imposed upon the local governments and their people in response to the often hysterical demands of people who see nothing illegal or immoral in depriving other people and whole groups of other people of what once were considered their lawfully purchased or acquired "property rights." This is not to say that property owners should not be amenable to necessary limitations on toe use of their properties; but the limitations actually necessary have largely already been enacted The latest plat law corrects the bad conditions depicted in your editoftal; and county and local zoning has largely limited the manner and purpose for which lands may be used. Similarly the current sanitap’ code, at least in Barry County, includes very stringent provisions as to water and disposal systems. There comes a point when unnecessary regulation becomes arrogant confiscation. Anyone who has built a recreational home lately on the river, or, probably, anywhere else in Barry County, will be pleased lo verify the diligence with which our local officials see that zoning and sanitary laws are observed. Similarly the person who has lately built such a recreational home will testify that it adds considerably to the tax base of the county and township Now let’s consider: If the landowner cannot build on the low ground, and cannot build within sight of the river on the high ground, how many people, other than those who might deliberately vidate, will develope their property by new building? And for what purpose are these rules imposed? Not because necessary, for necessary controls already exist, but to meet the demands of well intentioned but extreme nature - lovers and those who in the pursuit of the Act’s purpose, might wade or travel by canoe the navigable portions of the river. These latter are already a problem to the riparian owners who must regularly pick up their litter, beer cans, and more obscene debris, thrown into the river or left on the land by trespassers at portage and picnic sites. The statute has already become effective, so probably there is nothing to be done about it, except to challenge its constitutionality in court upon a proper case; but there seems no reason, profit, or justified purpose to be served in our local governmental entities' providing the whips with which the taxpaying property owners are lashed or in undertaking the burden and'expense of the litigation , which probably awaits this legislation and the codes or orders published pursuant to it.

Hastings THE HASTINGS BANNER......... Joly 28.1572.......... J �EDITORIAL ---------------------- by R. M. C.-------------------------A salute to Dale Ball for protecting the integrity of the Michigan hot dog against Federal intrusian that would have lowered the standard of this popular item. Dale, formerly with the Soil Conservation Service here in Barry county, is now Director of the State Department of Agriculture. It so happens that Michigan has one of the highest standards for meat products of any state in the Union and possibly tops them all in the quality demanded for hot dogs. But Federal standards for this lowly item are in a different category entirely in fact, a listing of items allowed in a Federal "hot dog" makes for some rather nauseating reading! Of course a hot dog is not a prime steak, a leg of lamb, a veal cutlet or a pork roast However. Dale and his State Department of Agriculture have set standards that insure Michigan customers an item that is wholesome, tasty and composed of honest-to-goodness meats rather than butcher shop discaras and rejects. The Federal Department of Agriculture, so it seems, was at­ tempting to make its own relaxed standards uniform for the entire nation Dale objected and backed by the Michigan Department^of Agriculture won his point. So picnickers, back yard chefs, economy-dish specialists, etc., can use Michigan-made hot dogs with perfect confidence in the product and can continue to do so as long as Dale and members of his department keep on their toes with the best interests of the public in mind By a margin of one vote, the U.S. Senate defeated a bill sponsored by President Nixon that would have raised the minimum wage from SI 60 to $2 per hour in two steps over a period of 14 months, and would have established a $1.60 differential for many youths. The Democrats favor a bill which would raise the minimum level immediately to $2 20 per hour with no differential and would extend coverage to 8.4 million workers not now covered. Obviously this Democratic proposal has considerable voter appeal since there are many more employees than employers on the voting rolls It sounds humaine but actually has in it the seeds for potential economic trouble ahead . Except in a very few industries-the aerospace industries, for example-it is not the skilled and highly paid worker who is on unemployment compensation or welfare, but the young and the un­ skilled who have never mastered a trade Both in Michigan and in the Nation the unemployment rate for the young and unskilled is several times as high as for'the population as a whole. It is not that potential jobs do not exist in the unskilled category but rather that high minimum wages have priced them out of economic reality. Also, every' time the minimum wage is raised, some jobs / disappear Summer jobs for students become,more difficult to find,/ Colleges and universities have to trim part time jobs on which many students depended to defray expenses Small family enterprises that once had jobs for the unskilled either have to get along without this type of help -or close. One problem in the United States is finding work for the un­ skilled However, each time the minimum wage is raised, it cuts back the sum total of jobs open to the unskilled simply because industries large and small alike in this high cost era find it necessary to trim expenses all possible in order to survive. When the government spends more than income justifies, it can resort to deficit financing. This economic subterfuge is not open to any private professional, business or industrial enterprise that hopes to survive as a going concern. Maybe someday questions such as mentioned above will be solved on the basis of economic soundness rather than election year politics but that time is evidently far distant. l>et us hope that our hard pressed nation can survive until a majority of those in the House and Senate become infused with the economic facts of life. As one of several candidates seeking nomination for President on the Democratic ticket. Senator George McGovern was not held to an exact accounting of all his statements. But now, as the Democratic nominee for President, he should define his views with greater clarity This he owes to members of his own party as well as to the American public Two areas that need considerable explanation immediately come to mind First, his promise to withdraw from Viet Nam. lock, stock and barrel, within three months, if he is elected President. A majority of Americans are more than anxious to pul) out of Southeast Asia. However, this wish is tempered by the fact that Hanoi is holding several thousand American prisoners under conditions that are known to no one except the north Vietnamese These men are there because they accepted the call to service of their country-many as volunteers, others as draftees When their turn came, they did not flee to neutral countries to avoid service nor go A.W.O.L. to seek sanctuary in anv nation that would accept them In our opinion, the United States has an obligation to these prisoners that cannot be ignored Does Sen. McGovern propose to pull out of Viet Nam before or after. Amencan prisoners are released by Hanoi? One can only assume that he would pull out regardless, since it will take a full three months to safely evacuate all of the service men on duty in Southeast Asia With all military support gone, the American prisoners would he even more at the mercy of Hanoi than they are now Sen McGovern seems to assume that once the United States knuckles to Hanoi's demands, they will honor an implied promise to release the prisoners What, one might ask. has Hanoi ever done in negotiations with the United States to justify such confidence' Rather, it seems to us. that Sen McGovern appears to be willing to gay a very dangerous game of poker under conditions that permit anoi to retain all the high cards ..... Former President Lyndon B. Johnson ordered a hall of all American bombing after an implied promise that Hanoi would bargain in good faith to seek a peaceful settlement of hostilities. The result here is too recent and too obvious for us to not profit by the lesson After four years or so of high level conferring, nothing was settled except the shape and size of the bargaining table and it was two years Before Hanoi even admitted that North Vietnamese divisions were operating in, the south The conference table was used merely as a center from which to spread Hanoi's propaganda to the world and the bombing halt to rush military supplies in huge volume down the Ho CM Min trail to depots in neutral countries bordering on South Viet Nam and to turn the socalled demilitarized zone into a springboard for an invasion south­ ward If American forces are withdrawn before the release of THE HASTINGS BANNER JrIv /26. 1972 Maurice Os troth Retires After 4 Decades as Gty Businessman Missing from the Hastings business world after more than four decades is Maurice Ostroth. who retired on July I. (Htroth sold his barber shop equipment located in the basement of the Hotel Hastings. He had sold his insurance business on July !, 1971 to the Stack Agency, continuing as a solicitor for Stack. Ostroth came to Hastings in 1928 after finishing his training at a barber college in Detroit. He and Don Perkins owned a barber shop in the basement of the building which now houses Gilmore Jewelry, then the City Bank building After a time he purchased Perkin's share of the business, and later he was associated with Pete Bachelder and Ernie Burr in a shop at Jefferson and Court. Ostroth entered the Army in 1943. and served until the end of the war He was assigned lo the Ixis Alamos atomic bomb plant. Following World War II he was an automobile salesmen, then he opened his shop in the basement of the Hotel Hastings p- Voice —i ’---------------- OF THE PEOPLE —' To the Editor: To answer Mr. Clinton's letter. I wish to point out several things First, that I do not blame President Nixon for starting our involvement in the Vietnam War. I think that if we examine our history books we find that the misty beginnings of our physical involvement in the War go back at least to Eisenhower's violations of the 1954 Geneva Agreements and our financial involvement goes back to when our Nation supplied 80 percent of France's costs in the Indochina War. My complaint with President Nixon is not from the fact that he is a Republican. I fee) that both Democrats and Republicans are guilty for get­ ting our Nation so deeply in­ volved in the Vietnam War. Where my complaint lies with President Nixon is that 4 years ago he promised to get the United States out of Vietnam and stated that it he did not get us out he should personally be held responsible. President Nixon has not kept his pledge of ending our involvement. Mr. Clinton also asked why I didn’t protest the Vietnam War when the fighting first started. When the fighting first started I was not yet born. When Eisenhower violated the Geneva Agreements of 1954 in 1956,1 was only 3 years old When Kennedy sent in troops, I was still in elementary school Very few people worry much about in­ ternational affairs while at­ tending elementary school. But I do wish lo point out that the organization to which I belong— the War Resisters League—has opposed U.S. Involvement in Vietnam since the start of our involvement there. Now as to what I would do if our nation were attacked. I would practice the teachings of Jesus Christ and utilize the non-violent methods of Resistance used by Mahatma G han di and Martin Luther King, Jr. I would never flee to Canadia and I would never defect to the other side. Last, the reason I do not sign my name to my letters stems from respect for my father, a local businessman He feels that my Constitutional right to free speech might clash with the feelings of some of his customers and thereby lose him business. I am not ashamed of signing my name, but as long as I live in my father's house I will respect his feelings on this issue. A Member of the War Resisters League Since there have been so many letters printed in the Banner from "A Member of the War Resisters League" which have caused several responses to appear, I thought the public may be interested in learning what the War Resisters League is. Founded in 1923, the League is the United States section of the War Resisters International, a world-wide pacifist movement with headquarters in London, sections in 20 nations on all 5 continents, and contacts in 60 other countries The section here prisoners, what is to prevent Hanoi from holding them in bondage as a lever to dictate further terms-reparations, for example. If, as we hope, Sen. McGovern will insist that prisoners be released before complete withdrawal begins, then his position will be essentially the same as that of President Nixon. Any promise to withdraw from Viet Nam before the release of the prisoners is playing cheap politics with the lives of thousands of loyal Americans who had the misfortune to be captured while serving in the armed forces of their country. Sen. McGovern has an obligation to explain in crystal dear (erms, the part that the prisoners of war will play in his proposed withdrawal from Viet Nam Now that Sen. McGovern is a presidential candidate, he should exnlain whether or not he intends to go through with his proposed wcjfare program. The Senator, so we read, would tackle the poverty program by doling out one thousand dollars yearly to every man. woman and child in the United States, whether they need it or not. To finance the deal, he would put through huge Federal income taxes on "higher levels of income Just where this level begins has not been specified, but presumable it would be well above the present pay level of Congressmen! In addition, inheritance taxes would be moved up to a confiscatory level in the higher brackets—and increase all along the line. This welfare program would cost the nation about $209 Billion per year and all these extra taxes would still fall about $40 Billion of footing the bill! We understand that, after reconsidering the situation, Sen. McGovern has back tracked a bit on inheritance provisions and has scaled down his 100 per cent top level tax to a "mere” 77 per cent. He has also admitted that his original welfare proposal needs a bit of revision-may be if you arealready a millionaire, you won't be eligible for the $1,000 federal dole! The fact of the matter is that his entire welfare program is so looney that one finds it difficult to comprehend that such a plan was seriously proposed by a presidential candidate In this connection, we wish to state that we were never in favor of the negative tax proposal to beat poverty that was considered by President Nixon and. fortunately defeated in Congress. No nation has ever been able to defeat poverty by government doles. Rome tried it and went down the drain , England tried it after World War I and nearly went bankrupt. As the late President John F. Kennedy stated with such eloquence' "Ask not what your govern­ ment can do for you but rather ask what you can do for your govern­ ment" We agree that the present welfare operation is not a success. It is, in fact, a mess that seems to be independent of any and all outside controls. However, bad as it is, the present system is undoubtedly preferable to Sen. McGovern’s $1,000dole or a negative tax deal. in the U.S. with 10,000 members lias its national office in New York City, and 4 regional offices around the country. There are 15 Locals including 3 in Michigan, plus several efforts around the country to organize more Locals All members of the League sign this enrollment pledge: "War is a crime against humanity. I therefore am determined not to support any kind of war, international or civil, and to strive for the removal of all causes of war." For many of the members, this pledge is the only thing they have in common There are league members who have never been in a demonstration in their lives. There are clean shaven members with jackets and ties—and others with beards, long hair and sandals. But all consistent with thei. convictions, try to express these convictions as dramatically and convincingly as possible within their own lives and in the communities around ’ Th? War Resisters League was the first group to protest the Vietnam War. The war in Viet­ nam is our number one problem, and it must be ended now by total, immediated American withdrawal. But once that war is over our real job will begin, the job of disarming all nations, and of nursing our cities, our forests, our rivers, our air. our peoples, and our children back to health. The League therefore relates the struggle against war to the struggle for a free and just society, for a world where poverty and disease are eliminated and freedom becomes a living reality for all men and women everywhere. Because war is also rooted in human apathy, in that alienation of people from society which leaves the individual feeling helpless, the League stresses the im­ portance of the individual decision and personal respon­ sibility in acting for peace and social justice. It opposes the totalitarian mind at home and abroad, the League does so because it believes human beings are never means to an end. They are ends in themselves Marcia Mulder Hastings, Mich.

They sold their home on N. Broadway, Income poverty guidelines for determining children’s eligibility for free or reduced price lunches and breakfasts in the 1972-73 school year were announced by Assistant Secretary of Agriculture Richard Lyng. “We are announcing the sew guidelines well in advance of next school year.** Lyng pointed out. “to give school boards and ad­ ministrators as much lead time as possible for planning and budgeting before ♦his school year closes.” Use of the guidelines is man­ datory for all schools under the National School Lunch Program. The new guidelines reflect an increase over those for the 1971­ 72 school year. For example, last year Qie income eligibility minimum for a family of four was $3,940. The new guideline for the four-person family is $4,110. Schools participating in the National School Lunch Program, School Breakfast Program, or receiving federally-donated foods must serve meals free or at a reduced price (not to exceed 20 cents for a lunch, or 10 cents for a breakfast), to any child from a family with an income at or below the national income poverty guidelines.

In June 1970 she married Truman Phillips also a graduate of M.S.U. ana he received his masters’ from Western Michigan University. He is an accountant with Miles Laboratories of Elkhart. Ind. where they live. Susan is a teach in South Bend. Susans parents, Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Kahler, and her sisler and husband, Mr. and Mrs. David Eash, traveled to South Bend on June 17th to see her perform. Susan gave a fine performance as Hodel in this popular musical, and Herb Mdycr would have been very proud of her as were her relatives there. Susan, who majored in child development and education in college, is taking graduate work with the University of Indiana at South Bend and one of her classes is voice. She stated that her success in music and the development of her talents she credits to the great instruction and guidance she received from Herb Moyer while she was a student at Hastings High. E.M.

On the contrary, although the figure is true as far as production of waste is concerned, the fact is that one human contributes a pollution potential equal to that of 22 steers. This is based on findings that one human sends down the sewer in 1 day 75 gallons of water containing kitchen wastes, toilet wastes, shower and washbasin wastes, and laundry wastes. On the other hand, preliminary findings in feedlot waste Real Money Maker-An auger feeder on the Max and Ron Coata farm at Coats Grove northeast of Hastings, on the Coats Grove Road, is a real money maker. It makes feeding easier and allows them to feed their steers more quickly. Steers will come running when they first hear the motor turning on the auger, the Coats report. The Coats’ farm, and the Wayne and Rod Pennock Farm, are holding open house Thur­ sday. Aug. 3. from 10 a.m. lo 8 p.m. It will be Farm & City Day, and a good time for everyone to learn how a modern farm is operated. You’re Invited to Farm-City Day at Barry Farms research at Nebraska's Field Laboratory at Mead show that in that area of 30 inches average annual precipitation, waste runoff from precipitation will average only 3.41 gallons per animal per day. Most animal waste stays in the feedlot until hauled into fields, and liquid wastes are mostly evaporated into the atmosphere. Al) human waste is flushed down tiie drain along with dishwater, bathwater, laundry water, garbage, etc. A 1000-pound steer doesnA flush anything unless there is at least a 1-incn rain. Barry County is now in the second year of a program aimed at reducing the need for agricultural pesticide sprays. On June 13. Jim Pelham and Art Steeby, Extension Agents, joined other county agents from throughout the lower peninsula at Gull Lake, Mich, to collect tiny insect parasites that offer a potential natural control of the cereal leaf beetle, one of the most serious grain pests in the Mid­ west. We brought the parasites back here and ’’planted” them on Barry County Farms. Tetrastichus julis is the Latin name of the tiny wasp-like parasite. It’s harmless to everything—except the cereal leaf beetle. Parasites are already doing a good job of keeping the beetle in check in Western Europe. There is evidence that they may do the same here. The parasites that were released last year have survived through the winter on many lower Michigan site*. The parasites were imported from Europe by scientists at Michigan State University's Department of Entomology in cooperation with the U.S. liny insects, they were closely studied at MSU's Kellogg Ex­ periment Station near Gull Lake.

Dale Bafl. director of the Michigan Department of Agriculture. "Michigan farmers should take a good look around their farms to eliminate hazards and make sure protective equipment is being used." Ball continued. "If this is done, many potential accidents could be prevented." Michigan State police report 364 farm equipment mishaps resulting in 15 .fatalities in 1971. Several of these deaths were the result of farm equipment, overturning on the operator. Most accidents were reported in Kent county. 18, Berrien, 16. and Saginaw. 14. "There are many practical, common-sense precautions farm people can tak?," Ball concluded, "to prevent deaths and injuries and cut down on the enormous annual financial losses caused by farm miafortunes."

Highlander Country Store �Beware of SalesmenWith ‘Medicare,’ ‘Social Security Benefit’ Plans Residents of Western Michigan are being solicited by mail requesting them to inquire about insurance plans described as a “Medicare ’ plan or a “Social Security Funeral Expense Benefit,” it was reported by Raymond C. Backus. Backus, district manager of the Social Security office in Grand Rapids, explained that the solicitation is a commercial sales device and is not a part of any of the Social Security programs, although “Social Security and “Medicare” is prominently used in their advertising solicitation. Backus further warns that insurance sales programs which prominently use “Medicare” or “Social Security” in their literature and sales talk should be examined carefully. Usually such sales promotions are ac­ companied by salesmen who imply they represent themselves as "Medicare” or "Social Security” representatives. Another feature of this sales promotion is the request by the salesman for immediate premium payment in advance Backus suggests that anyone having guestions about the validity of solicitations which use the term "Social Security" or “Medicare” call their local social security office. He also suggests that iden­ tification be obtained and that nothing should be signed or paid until you have had your questions answered by your s tclal security office. In Grand Rapids the social security office is located at 60 N. Division Avenue and the phone is 456-2241 Other social security offices in Western Michigan are located in Battle Creek, Kalamazoo, Benton Harbor, Muskegon and Traverse City.

This question is easily answered by some common words, practice, hardwork, determination, and the satisfaction of AC­ COMPLISHMENT But doesn't a band fall apart during the summer months because of lack of organization? By Rick Furrow Absolutely not, our own Hastings bands have just completed 5 busy weeks of Summer band by participating in the summer band program. Summer band consisted of a band practice for 1 hour, each week and some students took either private or group lessons, once a week, for 30 minutes. s There were 3 organized bands this summer; 5th and 6th grades, 7th' and 8th grades, and* all high school grades made up the third band.

It appears that the American government is imposing the same injustices on the American people today that the English government imposed upon its American colonies before the Revolutionary War; over taxation. * It is my opinion that the government is no longer working in behalf of the people as a whole, but rather is taking advantage of the very people who were responsible for placing them in the offices of high authority in the first place. It is time that all the injustices that have been taking place behind the people's back be put to a stop. It is time that this country be once again under the jurisdiction of the people, by the people, and that the government work for the people instead of the other way around.

Bureaucracy in the U.S. government is a serious threat lo the rights of every citizen in this democracy. Bureaucracy, for those un­ familiar with the term, is government by bureaus whose officials do business by following a strict routine, who fail to realize the need to change with the times. One incident which I personally feel would fall under tins heading is the 20 percent increase in social security benefits which has just recently been passed by both houses of Congress. This bill will raise the taxes and thus increase the strain on the already ram­ paged pocketbooks of the average American. This was an act which was clearly not made in the best interest of the citizens of this country. While I believe that the elderly have the right to be supported by the younger generations, I think an increase in social security is 7 Days Per Week!

This is still happening—and any church which is telling people that God loves them and can make their lives worthwhile, is relevant. In a world of confusion, mixed up values, and a search for meaning, where can we look except to an unchangeable God, whose principles for righteous living have always given man an anchor and established in peace and quietness that life which is committed to Him. God and the Church can only be relevant to persons when they, in faith, relate to God in their personal lives How can anyone knock what he has not tried? When individuals are ready to give up their restless, futile search to find meaning in life through material possessions and physical pleasures, then they can come to know that there is a divine plan at work in our universe—whose Spirit can enter lives and give new direction, and meaning and motivation. God is for Real! Many have found this to be true. It can be so for every' person who has courage enough to try the walk of faith.

Rl Hasting*, Mich. 49058. Answers from the Book of Books. Dear Uncle Aaron. Q. I have heard people talk about the unpardonable sm. What is it? A. Continued. . The second that you might have reference to as an unpardonable sin is referred to in I John 5:16, 17. "If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it. All unrighteousness is in: and there is a sin not unto death, this person is a Christian, a child of God, as indicated by the word "brother" in verse 16. All children of God are chastised “For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth. and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. Hebrews 12:6. Chastening is applying the board of education to the seat of knowledge. It is not punishment in the sense of paying for your sin, it is God s child training to teach the child not to do it again. All God’s children are chastised, see Hebrews 12:7. But if ve be without chastisement, whereof all (God’s children) are par­ takers, then are ye bastards, and not sons Hebrews 12:8. "We know that no one who has been born of God practices sin. . .” I John 5:18a, BV. “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. I John 1:9. This is God’s gracious provision for his children, spiritual water and soap for our daily, continual cleansing. "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive our­ selves. and the truth is not in us." 1 John 1:8. But suppose we get too busy, or too Involved, or whatever, and don’t examine ourselves and confess our sin, then what? Or we don’t learn from God’s chastisement, then what? In I Corinthians Chapter 11. verses 28-32, we read. "But let a man examine himself. For this Grand Champions-There was keen competition for livestock honors at the Barry County Fair, with about 90 animals entered In the various classes.

For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world. God is not a delinquent father, He will not allow his children to practice sin (continue to sin) He has sufficient and adequate remedies to cope with any wandering child.

Holsteins Now Dominating Dairy Herds The diet-conscious consumer has been largely responsible for the decline of some breeds of dairy cattle in Michigan, a Michigan State University dairy specialist says. Holstein cows dominate the Michigan dairy industry today because of growing demand for low-fat milk. Dr. Clinton Meadows explains. High-fat Channel Isle breedsGuernseys and Jerseys-and Brown Swiss and Ayshires make up only 15 percent of the dairy cattle population. According to the dairy specialist, the milk of the high-fat breeds is also high in other solids, protein, minerals and lactose. This type of milk gains less profit on today’s market than that of the Holsteins because of a minimum fats and solids regulation.

Stafa St. Phono 945-5112 other discomforts of the nor­ thland in winter. Florida is invaded each year with several million older per­ sons. and while the State is un­ doubtedly much wealthier because of the vacationers, it also presents numerous problems they wouldn't have, save for the visitors. Traffic problems are un­ believable, prices are high, and the sleepy little villages of years ago have grown tremendously, with condominiums, trailer and mobile home courts springing up everywhere. The cost of land and housing has gone out of sight, and I’m sure this is not welcomed by the native Floridians-if indeed there are any natives there. If one talks to the clerks in the stores, or people in general, it seems they all originally came from the ’’North," or so it seems. In Lincoln-Arms alone there are 21 couples from Barry County, besides several from Eaton, Kent and Calhoun counties. Practically all trailer courts (the residents prefer they be called "mobile-home" courts) are highly organized. There are potluck suppers, hobby days, shuffle board teams for both men and women, bicycle-ridebreakfasts, square and round dancing, card games of every description, and chartered bus trips to Florida’s Disney World and the many other en­ tertainment spots throughout the state. Restaurants nave sprung up by the hundreds, and while it is primarily the vacationers who swim during the winter months, the beaches are flooded with sun worshipers and picknickers, and those hunting "unusual" shells. Florida is growing so rapidly state and city officials are con­ cerned with water and sewage problems, and the building of more and better highways is becoming mandatory. Additional motels are going up each year, and the airports are teeming with activity around the clock. We enjoyed our winter in Florida, but we're still Michiganders at heart. See New Meat Products for Local Markets Precooked bacon, brand-name beef, and a prepackaged sausage combination are just a few new products you're likely to find in the meat department, a Michigan State University marketing specialist reports. One packer is testing precooked bacon, wrapped in a foil pouch to be heated in the toaster, and a dry-cured hickorysmoked bacon in three-pound slabs, says Sbeila Morley. Also on the market’ is a prepackaged outdoor buffett museum at Charlton Park. The students included items representative of the decade. such as the moon landing, pop, a pest strip, seat belt, minature cars and even money. Working on the exhibit are (left to right) Karen Sheridan, Ron Bond, Katy Shuster, Scott Fulton and Craig Bever.-Banner photo. combination of knockwurst, bratwurst and Polish sausage. Because many shoppers have shown preference for particular brands of bacon, some packers may label beef products with brand name identification, the, specialist says. Another trend may be toward central cutting of meat. Grocery stores will receive counter-ready cuts. Do You Have Something To Be Happy About? Are Good Things Happening? If You Are Happy Tell Us!

Q MEF ■ FRONTS Driving habits have a direct ' relationship to the maintenance and repair costs in operating an automobile. Good driving habits can con­ tribute substantially to the useful life of the complex machinery and component parts of an automobile, according to auto research experts. Some "don’t’s’’ in operating a car include: Don’t apply the brakes while driving over railroad crossings or other bad bumps. The shock could cause damage' to the hydraulic system and also to tires. Coast across such ob­ stacles. Don’t try to save fuel by coasting downhill in neutral in cars equipped with automatic transmissions This builds up conflicting pressures in the hydraulic system that could cause serious transmission damage. Don't operate windshield wipers when the glass is dry. Dust and grit can scratch the finish and mar the glass per­ manently. Don't start a car with the radio. heater and other accessories on Current used by these accessories sharply reduces the power in the battery needed to start the engine. Don't shift automatic tran­ smissions into "Park" until the car has stopped completely.

Cowboy Carter will be firing the first production model of the all new Bellanca Decathlon which is finished in a beautiful red, white and blue striped custom paint design complete with stars under the wingtips. Very patriotic, the aircraft won’t be hard to spot as the “Flying Cowboy’’ puts those 150 horses through their paces at the Hastings Air Fair. Bob Carter is known as Michigan's “Flying Cowboy.” The name is appropriate as Bob is just that-a cowboy. Up at 5 a.m. to start the days chores, non-flying that is. Farming Is, and has been, an important part of Carter’s life with 4,000 acres of land and many, many herds of cattie and sheep to ride herd on. Together with his wife and parents, they own and operate lhe W.C. Cornwell Ranch near Clare. The Decathlon not only is kept busy weekends at air shows, but it is also an Important part of keeping tabs on the cattle and sheep on pastures. When you watch Cowboy Bob put his plane through his long list of maneuvers, you may have doubts that you are actually seeing what you think you are. he has practiced precision aerobatics and has nearly 2,000 hours of experience to his credit. Bob and his wife and parents own and operate the W.C. Cornwell Ranch near Clare. but have no fear, thousands of people experience the same sensation when viewing his ex­ citing performance. Whether the Cowboy is doing a $0 turn spin, vertical rolls, knife edge flight, the extremely difficult "Lomcevak” tumble (a Czech ward meaning headache), or any of the many maneuvers you will see constant action which is sure to thrill every person present. At one point in the program, Cowboy Carter will fly the length of the field inverted to cut a ribbon placed between two twenty foot poles. This is known as the “Inverted Ribbon Pick Up’* and has become a trademark with The Cowboy. Bob's lovely wife. Shelly, narrates each show as the “Cowboy" flys through his routines which makes it much more exciting and informative. Many lonely hours of faithful practice have made "The Flying Drunk Drivers Plead Guilty Leroy R. Reid, 31, Rl Nash­ ville, and Robert A.

Explain 'Deductible' A Medicare patient now pays the first $60 of his hospital bill, which is "an amount related to average hospital costs across the Nation." according lo Raymood C. Backus, social security district manager in Grand Rapids. "The deductible amount paid by the Medicare patient makes him responsible for the equivalent of the average cost of one day of hospital care." Backus said. "That cost may change substantially over the year." Medicare administrators are required to review hospital costs oqce a year lo determine whether or not the deductible should be changed. The rate of increase (or decrease' is based by law on the ratio between hospital costs in 1966. the first year of Medicare, and hospital costs in the year before a change in the deductible amount is effective. The present deductible is based on the ratio between average 1966 hospital inpatient service rales of $37.94 per day and average 1969 rates, which were $55.70 per day. Backus said "The ratio figures out to be 1.468, and that figtre was multiplied by $40. the original Medicare hospila. deductible in 1966 The product$56.71—was rounded to the nearest $4. as the law requires The result was $60. the pros' Medicare deductible."

C.-----------------All registered voters should take time to vote at the Primary Election this coming Tuesday. Aug. 8. Candidates for important township, county and state offices are to be selected and there are special proposals of local and countywide interest as well. Polls will be open from 7:00 a.m. to 8.00 p.m. The candidates for the final election in November will be named at the primary this coming Tuesday and that is why it is necessary to have a full and represen tative vote The process of casting a ballot takes very little time and is a duty of good citizenship. So, plan to vote at the Primary Election this coming Tuesday. Aug 8 The G.O.P should play it “dow and easy’’ in regard to the fact that Sen Thomas Eagleton. the nominee for Vice President on the Democratic ticket received mental care in hospitals three times between I960 and 1966 for nervous exhaustion and depression. In fact, the best way to handle this incident would be to mention it as infrequently as possible and then stick strictly to facts without elaboration Voters, themselves, will have to decide if the situation as revealed is a serious detriment to the vice-presidential office. By and large, the public is fair-minded and any attempt to influence by distortion or unfair presentation usually reacts lo the disadvantage of those making the attack. In our opinion, the fact that Sen. Eagleton did not make the knowledge of his mental treatments available to Sen. McGovern BEFORE his selection as nominee for vice president, indicates a much more serious character flaw than his need for special mental therapy His ambition for high office prompted him to deceive the man who selected him for Ihis honor by withholding information vital to a proper evaluation when his qualifications for office were being weighed in the balance against those of other prospective candidates Even though Sen Eagleton believes himself to be completely cured and free of mental problems, the fact that he considered mental treatments necessary to his health and welfare should not have been kept from Sen. McGovern. No matter how much his action is 'sugar coated." the fact is that it constituted deliberate deceit in a situation that involved the U.S. public as well as Sen. McGovern Recently we read an article concerning "The New Muckraking." Actually, of course, there is no such thing "New Muckraking.” The term was first used by the then President Theodore Roosevelt during a speech delivered on April 14. 1904. in which he attacked the jour nalistic practice of making sweeping and unjust charges of corrup­ tion against public men and corporations. "Muckraking, " is as old as journalism and like journalism, itself, can either be thoroughly professional and constructive or irresponsible and destructive-a play for sensationalism to get the big headlines that draw reader attention Muckraking has always been with us and always will be. Nothing about it has changed and probably never will. So long as "muckraking" is done as a sincere and painstakingly exact effort to seek out and expose corruption in public office or elsewhere, it represents a very useful and constructive phase of journalism. However, it is a fact that not al) "muckraking" articles result from top quality reporting. Men in public office are often besmirched and pilloried without justification or reason. This is especially true of the so-called "editorial cartoons,” which are often bitter, cynical and distorted beyond all reason With a knowledge of what "muckraking" is and what it is sup­ posed to do, it is up to individual readers to judge the quality of the evidence presented and the correctness of the conclusions based on that evidence It is a mistake and an injustice, as well, to assume that al) such articles are correct and that their appearance in public print is per se a guarantee of their accuracy A “muckraking" article is comparable to a case presented in a court of law where the jury must evaluate the evidence presented-only in this instance, the individual readers must sene as judge and jury. Unfortunately, most American newspaper readers feel so hurried and pressed for time, that they accept headlines and lead paragraphs as Gospel truth. The United States has a press that surpasses any other nation in the world in the quality and variety of articles printed for public consumption and m the freedom to sources of information granted journalists who cover the daily scene There is no reason for any American citizen to go uninformed on any matter of public im­ portance It is al) there for the reading However, to serve its maximum value to the nation, the press reed* critical and discerning readers who take the time to evaluate news paragraphs and arrive at th«r own conclusions-this is especially true of arUc.es m uii "muckraking" category J Personally, we are glad that Spiro Agnew is to be retained as candidate for Vice President on the Republican ticket. Liberal critics once asked in a contemptuous tone of voice: “Who is Spiro Agnew”’ They quickly found out that be was a well informed individual who could hold his own in public debate with the best of them and who did not hesitate to let the public know exactly where he stood on key issues This open frankness was quite disconcerning to many of his liberal critics He was and is a refreshing personality on the Washington scene He served well on foreign assignments for the United States despite predictions of failure by his liberal critics. Probably his most notable achievement was his direct and plainlyworded criticism of the media Where other officials in his position might have hesitated to speak out. be hit straight out from the shoulder Im meek a Lely he was charged with an effort to "suppress and censor the,news." That, of course, was the bunk and the freedom with which the Vice President was and is being criticized by the media for his outspoken remarks, gives and aura of ridiculousness to such charges Mr Agnew was merely asking for a more fair and more unbiased reporting of the news-and that almost everyone favors The recent action of the American Newspaper Guild in en­ dorsing a presidential candidate in a forthcoming partisan election gives added validity to his criticism. His record in public office has been excellent. Critics, even the meanest of the muckrakers, have found nothing in his personal or private life to sustain charges of weakness, dishonesty or wrongdoing He is a competent administrator who has a sense of value for sound financial operation-and that is a wholesome in­ fluence at ary level of government. He is a conservative, but con­ sidering the damage that well-meaning but unsound liberalism has done to the nation, the term "Conservative” is no longer a dirty word 7. THE HASTINGS BANNER......... August 2. 1972 Judges Urge ‘Yes’ Vote On Proposal ‘A’ In Tuesdays Balloting Michigan District Judges Association reminded the voters of a proposed constitutional amendment, proposal A, which will appear on the ballot August 8th. The amendment would give the tegisltaure greater flexibility in protecting the rights of Michigan citizens both as consumers and as taxpayers The association according to Barry County District Judge Kenneth A Hansen, states “The adoption of the proposed amendment would not cause any change in the historical right to trial by jury. In one sense, the proposal actually strengthens that right by conditioning the right to a jury of a larger size (12 persons) on the severity of the crime involved rather than on the type of court involved, which varies from place to place within the state " Presently, a person accused of any crime has a right to a trial by a jury of 12 persons when the case is tried in a "court of record" (for example, the circuit court). If the trial occurs in a court which the legislature designates as a "court not of record” (for example, the district court), the jusry may consist of fewer than 12 persons The size of the jury today does not depend in any way upon the severity of the crime This means that persons ac­ cused of minor traffic cases in the recorder’s court of Detroit have a right to a 12 person jury whereas those accused of more serious offenses in the district court and remaining municipal courts are now tried by five member juries Under the proposed con­ stitutional amendment a jury of less than 12 persons would be allowed to hear ail misdemeanors for which the possible punishment does not exceed one year’s improsonment -regardless of the type of court involved. If the crime carried a more severe penalty (including all felonies), the jury would have to consist of 12 persons, regardless of the label someone attaches lo the court Another majpr area would allow for the protection of the rights of homeowners, farmers and small merchants against unscrupulous or unfair business practices by out-of-state cor­ porations This would become possible if district courts were made "court of records ’ It is now possible for a wronged citizen of this state to sue a nonresident corporation in the Expect Primary —i Races To Attract I---------------OF THE PEOPLE —J v-Voice (Continued From Page 1) Galesburg.

Republican Kenneth Radant To the Editor: In the July 26 issue of your paper under the Editorials section by Mark Andrews there was an essay on the right of men to take animal and bird species through hunting methods Articles such as this are so full, of inaccuracies that sometimes knowing outdoorsmen neglect to reply but I think some facts are necessary to correct errors. The August "72" issue of Sports Afield has some interesting figures concerning game species and hunter support of con­ servation practices. In 1900 the estimated population of whitetail deer was 500,000 Today it ex­ ceeds 2 million. In 1900 there were 50,000 Elk in the U.S. and today the figure exceeds 250,000 The wild turkey population was estimated in 1952 at W0.00O and today it exceeds 500,000 Many of these species have been greatly increased by the contributions of hunters who spend 90 million dollars a year on license and permits Through a special ex cisc tax on sporting arms and and ammunition hunters contribute another 30 million per year In addition through duck stamp purchase, another 2 million a year is added to the conservation fund In fact the major reason why the conservation movement came about can be traced to those who hunt The article implied that many hunters shoot an animal but do not kill it. This is an unfortunate truth but the majority of sport­ sman will attempt to gain possession of a wounded animal and most deeply regret the loss of a wounded animal. As long as the author of the article is making a rural &lification for his way of life, r does he enjoy beef, pork, chicken or any type of animal protein that has been raised for slaughter for huma.i con­ sumption. What chance do these animals have of escaping their ultimate and at a slaughter house’ Might this too be tabled as murder? One other point I would like to say What has the author done to promote conservation of wild animals? What are his con­ tributions other than an overt attack upon the sport of hunting? Sincerely, Doug Perry district court for claims based on a sale within the state. If the claim is less than $10,000 the case must be brought in district court rather than circuit court. But the resulting judgment may actually have to be enforced in another state where the defendant has his assets The courts of that other state may or may not enfore that judgment there but does not have to so long as the district court is not a "court of record" because of limiting language in the U.S. Constitution. The situation can’t be solved by making the district court a "court of record" at this time because counties would have to pay twice as much for the compensation and mileage for jurors because of the present constitutional language. "For the above two reasons, the size of juries according to the degrees of the crime and the enforcement of district court judgments in other states, the Michigan District Judges Association urges you to vote YES on Proposal A on the August 8th ballot,” Judge Hansen said "With the adoption of this con­ stitutional amendment, the right to a trial by jury would be preserved and safeguarded in a more relevant way. ' To the Editor; In response to Mark Andrews article in Accent. I don’t know exactly wnai yuu are trying to say. But as far as I am concerned you are writing thru your hat, on the 2 Articles which appeared in July 26, Banner. Article 1 In regards to Social Security. I contributed for 32 years to pay for my Social Security and disability. People who are on Social Security nave to buy bread in the same markets as the Young and Hearty, the cost goes up The aged and ill are on a fixed income Let’s see the editor live on this, as the elderly do. Maybe he can find a way to beat the prices that keep clim­ bing. It isn't fun to have to live on a small amount of money. 1 sincerely think we who are on Social Security can stand the small raise we will get. /U For Article 2 buM^rIk- >‘ou were b°rT\ under a The human animals do look after other animals Being the only animals to think and plan and reason. They passed laws to cover the preservation of the lesser animals, from the un­ planned mistake born to man. Without a planned harvest of the lesser animate disease and pestilence would be rampant in the land. It is the most intelligent animal. Humans can read, write and say with words on paper without facts and who put emotions before reason. Life based on emotion would be chaos and the next time the editor sees an ad in the paper about steak, roast and fryers it would be well to think and be sure.

Bottled Water Expensive With No Guarantees You pay almost a thousand lim« the cost of tap water for commercially bottled water, yet you may not get better quality, cautions Michigan State University marketing specialist Maryann Beckman. There are no Federal itindards for commercially bottled water, so it can range from pure water directly from the spring to filtered municipal water, the specialist explains. Most bottlers do belong to the American Bottled Water Association, a voluntary trade organization which limits various chemicalsand bacteria in bottled water. But the association's enforcement powers are minimal, says Mrs. Beckman. Withdrawal of certification doesn’t halt plant operation. If you buy water bottled in Michigan, you can be relatively sure of a safe product, although there is no guarantee of dietetic or therapeutic value. The Food Inspection Division of the Michigan Department of Agriculture periodically tests water bottled in Michigan against the standards for drinking water set by the U.S. Public Health Department. Bottled water told In interstate commerce is required by the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetics Act to be drinkable and the labels factual. However, there are no routine Inspections for compliance, the specialist points out. Water on interstate carriers must meet U.S. Public Health Service drinking water stan­ dards. But these standards are not applicable to retail sales Increasing affluence and concern over pollution have greatly boosted sales of bottled water recently, Mrs Beckman reports. Cost of a gallon of bottled water is usually about 65 cents. Community water costs from 50 cents to a dollar for a thousand gallons.

The specific duties performed have included: gathering information, making plans, evaluating alternatives, and submitting recom­ mendations. Many topics have been discussed by the Planning Commission with a Recreation Plan. Sewer and Water Plan developed and approved by the Barry County Board of Com^missioners. The third major undertaking is the development of a Com­ prehensive Land Use Plan. The organization of a Task Force Committee in areas assigned to each commission member has been initiated to assist in this undertaking. monday evening, July 24. all of these committees with the 11 members of the Planning Commission, met at the Hastings City Bank, at which time Larry Miller and Jeff Dauphin of Williams & Works Co., presented the film. “Sharing Our Land." Grave concern over the misuse of good cropland was evidenced. All participants were asked to fill out a questionnaire that in­ cluded: (1) List three major assets of your area; (2) List three major problems of your area; (3) What major goal would you like to see adopted regarding the future development of Barry County? The reading of the questionnaires gave evidence of similar concerns for the County. A large map of Barry County was presented, showing existing land use with overlays showing soils, woodlots, prime agricultural land, transportation, poor crop land, and land plotted tor residences. James King, chairman, con­ ducted a short business meeting to conclude an interesting meeting for the 52 in attendance. - lictf'i No. 1 Nino Wms 3 Moro Tilts Tbe Lacey No 1 baseball team came through with three more The victors defeated Lacey No. 2. 9-4, with Stan Sempf and Jim VanSyckle hurling for the win­ ners.

August 2, 1072 �Accent A Banner Feature For And About Barry County > oulh HHS Band Students Combine Work, Pleasure By Rick Furrow Being a band student in the HHS band is no easy task, even though band is loads of fun. Throughout the year the band puts on many performances and participates in several activities, that involve many hours of practice, and hard work! By far the busiest time of the year for a band is in the Fall, during marching season. The HHS bands march during the half­ times of all home football games, marching festivals, and in the Christmas and Memorial Day parades. Marching is not as $asy as it looks, there are several things involved. Besides keeping track of your left and right foot steps, and knowing when to turn, what way, the music is usually memorized for the entire show. Also the band puts on several concerts and participates in at least one festival. In a festival the band will play at least 3 musical selections, and sight read a number, in which the band is judged and rated. Another important event is the solo and ensemble festival. A student must play a solo, sight read, and play certain scales memorized, all in front of a judge and usually a large audience. Besides being plenty of work, band can round a person out; mentally, physically, and socially. Dan Endres and Spot- Win Top Dog Trial Honor Dan Endres and his dog. Spot, providing the trophies.

Without money or education their parents can only sit by and watch their children’s dreams deteriorate before them. The house, battered and stripped of everything but bare necessities is like a living prison, punishing them for some unknown crime. This is a very broad per­ spective and while this picture does not apply to all American Indians, it never the less does exist, and I hope that you un­ derstand the message I am trying to relay. Without your help this proud race of Americans is doomed to live a hopeless and inhumane life. A human life is a valuable thing. Don’t let it go to waste.

We the concerned citizens of Rutland Twp. do not believe we need a new Township hall to provide a private office for the supervisor. Candidates for Clerk and Treasurer we have contacted prefer to retain offices in their own homes, rather than be transferred to offices in a Twp. Hall. Also, it is we the taxpayers who will foot the bill. Even though it is claimed that reserves are on hand to pay for the building, the fact remains it is money that has in one form or another been previously collected from Rutland taxpayers. • We believe there are more important uses for this money-such as road im­ provements. In the best interest of Rutland Township, vote NO on the Township Hall. Proposal at the Primary Election on Tuesday, Aug. 8, 1972.

The church was closed in January by the United Methodist Conference, and donated to the Barry County Parks and Recreation Commission. Total project cost to relocate, restore and construct a basement for the church at Charlton Park is $10,000. Initial contributions toward the plan came from the Thornapple Foundation and Charlton Park. Members of the Barry County Historical Society are un­ dertaking the campaign to raise remaining monies necessary to preserve the building. Hisotrical Society President Norman Barlow praised private and civic donors saying: ‘'the out pour of funds is gratifying and speaks well of the many fine community spirited individuals.” He added: “the contributions also reflect the desire of many citizens to preserve the lessons of history through support of Charlton Park. Village and Museum.” Contributions are payable to the Barry County Historical Society Church Fund, in care of the Hastings City Bank.

Steeby Barry Extension Director Michigan farmers may soon have to fertilize with suuur. Last year, for the first time, red kidney beans in Ionia and Montcalm Counties were sulfurdeficient. Sulfur was low only in plants not fertilized with lime or nitrogen. Irrigated com on sandy soils and alfalfa may also soon be deficient. Several factors are depleting the sulfur* in Michigan soils: sulfur emission into the at­ mosphere is declining each year, fertilizers contain less of the chemical than a few’ years ago, and more sulfur is being removed from the soil by higher crop yields. Sulfur does not seem to be needed for good yields, but it is required for protein synthesis in plants. Plants deficient in sulfur appear yellow or light green, much like nitrogen deficiency. Sulfur will probably be needed first in the northern part of the lower peninsula and in the Upper Pcninsula-away from industries that emit sulfur-or on acid, sandy soils low in organic matter. 4H’ers Earn Horse Honors At Barry Fair SIMPLE LITTLE SALE ON SIMPLICITY all it does is save you money) More Michigan Cattle on Feed Farm & City Workers—Rod Pennock of Nashville.

But it can be doubly irritating if it is equipped with an air-conditioner that isn't working or doing a half-hearted job of cooling. • Air conditioners now are standard equipment on nearly 70 per cent of all cars coming off assembly lines, according to auto research experts. The system basically consists of a compressor, a condenser, a receiver-drier, an evaporator, a fan and the necessary valves and controls Car manufacturers recom­ mend air-conditioner checkups annually in the Spring or about every 10,000 miles. Proper maintenance of the cooling and electrical systems and operating the air conditioner for at least 10 minutes weekly, even in cold weather, can keep the system in peak condition. Few motorists, however, follow these guidelines because car air­ conditioners have earned a reputation for being basically trouble-free. Because of the equipment involved and the care required, it Is recommended that a malfunctioning alr conditioner be repaired and serviced at qualified auto centers or service stations. Leaks in the system and a diminished supply of the chemical refrigerant that ab­ sorbs the heat in the car’s air are among the more common problems that can develop. For qualified mechanics, it is a simple matter to recharge the system with refrigerant. Don’t Junk It!— D. J. Electric 222 S.

Aastla warned aalaaiablle shopper, not to sign any eoalracl with a car dealer until they have made up their mind and selected the vehicle they want al an agreed upon price. The Department of State receives from five to 10 requests a week to have dealers refund a down payment after the customer has completed the deal, then changed his mind. Austin said. It is almost impossible to refund the money if the person orders an automobile through a new car dealer, and asks for special equipment, such as an AM-FM radio, air conditioning, or a special color combination, Austin indicated "The customer has, In effect, ordered the factory to build him a special automobile It is im­ possible. after the deal is com­ pleted. to refund the money," Austin said. Aastia iadkaled that as aecasiao an over-aaidaaa salesman will make aa error "Unfortunately for the auto dealer, the customer, and the Department of State, on rare occasions, we will run into a Quick Buck Charlie' who will do anything to make a deal and will outright cheat a customer," he said. " 'Quick Buck Charlie’ deals are about the easiest to obtain a refund from because they usually have done something illegal.' Austin said. One of "Quick Buck Charlies" favorite tricks is known as "low­ balling." Thia is where he con­ vinces a customer to sign a blank contract, verbally agreeing on a price. When the contract Is returned to the customer, there are several changes In It, In­ cluding the price.

"Therefore. I am warning the customer. . until you make up your mind and select the car you want at the price you want to pay, don't sign the contract." Austin said "Do not sign a contract unless the dealer also signs.

EDITORIAL ------------- •--------- by R. AA. C.--------------------------As campaign time draw's near, Sen. George McGovern behaves less and less like the crusading idealist and acts more and more like an opportunistic, "old pro" who pays more and more attention to the boys at work in the "smoke filled back room." Only a few days ago, Mr. McGovern was professing "1,000 per cent" support for the naming mate of his choice. Sen. Thomas Eagleton of Missouri, despite revelations of a past medical history given sensational airing in the news media The reaction ot tne American people to this information, he believed, would be generous and fair because they (the people) are a lot more thoughtful and charitable in making judgments than the so-called experts give them credit for. This belief in the ability of the American people to make sound and fair judgments was, he said, “a matter of faith " with him. Yet. something must have happened to undermine this "matter of faith" in the people. When the sho* -down came, Mr. McGovern placed more faith in the judgment of his big financial contributors* than he did in the fairness of the American people Sen Eagleton was dropped from the ticket! To the Editor: The editorial about hunting is an excellent example of how overemolional preservationists are trying to put hunting in a bad light. You rant and rave about the "murder" of "defenseless" animals, your slanted words bring tears to little childrens eyes and put a big angry lump in mine You paint a verbal picture of thousands of dead and maimed animals, using exceptions for the rule. You heap lie upon lie trying to smother us, and stop our sport by law. But you can! succeed. Try as you might, you can't heap enough dirt on us to keep us down. For although a few "thieves" poach game, the good that the majority perform is always evident. la our opinion, the flaw in Sen. Eagleton's position was not his medical history. He took the treatments voluntarily and as a result of them is probably in sounder health today than many other individuals working under high pressure who have never recognized or admitted their need for specialized treatment. • Rather, he deserves a “black mark" for keeping the facts of these treatments.a secret until AFTER his party honored him with the nomination for vice president. This indicates a lack of for­ thrightness that is not a desirable quality in a candidate for high office Details of the treatments should have been given to Sen. McGovern during the private conference regarding Mr. Eagleton’s possible selection as vice-presidential candidate If the Senator from Missouri had made this information available to Mr McGovern at the proper time, the situation today might be entirely different and the Democratic presidential nominee might not have had so much difficulty in selecting a substitute nominee for vice president ' Jack Anderson’s totally inaccurate story connecting Sen. Eagleton with numerous drunk driving and traffic violations was a blow to his own credibility and a disservice to the profession of journalism as well. A muckracker who insists on raking muck when their is no muck makes one wonder-how many other of his stories have been based on vague and unconfirmed statements? How many other reporters of lesser notoriety in their drive for juicy news scoops permit themselves to play fast and loose with the facts? Incredible as it seems, Anderson, at the time he released his story had not even seen the photostats said to have been made from records of Mr. Eagleton's traffic violations. The "responsible of­ ficial" who passed on this information to Anderson, dicki’t have them in his possession either Ofneial records indicate that Sen. Eagleton has been charged with only one traffic violation-and that for speeding under cir­ cumstances with which one could sympathize-he was late for a speaking engagement! Maybe it is an indication of the somewhat relaxed relationship between Mainland China and the United States that the Red Regime there is taking a more tolerant attitude toward tea "Does tea-time drinking serve only the interests of the bourgeoises " an item in the Peking Peoples Daily asks No. it answers: Enjoying tea in restaurants after work is OK for workers, peasants and soldiers. Then the party paper goes all out when it adds: "Tea is even better with pastries." So, as a follow-up to the highly successful "ice breaking" Ping Pong Tour, perhaps the next logical step would be to send along a team of tea connoisseurs whose members can also hold their own when it comes selecting the proper pastry for the proper cup of tea.

Africa Congo, feet of Ocean �Nashville Dam The dam across Thomapple River, constructed shortly after 1855, is traditionally a part of the village of Nashville. Early history of the dam is sketchy at best. The dam, which for nearly 95 years provided power for a saw mill, a grist mill and a flour mill, is sadly in need of repair, and the Nashville village officials have secured permission of William Fox, part-owner and manager of the present Citizens Elevator Inc., to repair the dam. There has been some con­ sideration to abandon the dam. but that doesn't appear to be feasible, because if the dam went out the Thomapple river above the dam would be lowered leaving a swampy, mosquitoinfested area along the river banks. So the dam, constructed nearly 117 years ago. will be repaired. 'Die village of Nashville dates back to 1836, altho the village was not incorporated until 1869. History states that the major portion of the land on which Nashville was built was pur­ chased from the government during 1836 and 37 for the purpose of speculation From that date to 1855 no improvements were made. A little later a saw mill was erected, as well as a few rude structures necessary to ac­ commodate the men employed in its operation, and these remained until about 1864, the only forerunners of the future flourishing village. In 1865 the village was first platted by Robert B. Gregg. In 1866 the Grand River Valley Railroad was projected and the preliminary survey made. In January. 1869. the first train passed over the recently com­ pleted railroad and "then began an almost unprecedented era of P'rlw”viil*ge of Nashville lies mostly in Castleton township, with a small area, from Casgrove street south to the. village limits, in Maple Grove township. The 1880 history book relates that “It will thus be seen that Nashville embraces portions of the townships of Castleton and Maple Grove, two of the most attractive townships in Barry County. Pursuing its devious way thru the central portion of the village limits is the Thomapple river, a stream, which aside from the picturesque beauty it imparts to the landscape, serves a more useful purpose in affording ex­ cellent water power, which has been for a quarter of a century, utilized for commercial pur­ poses." The first mill, a saw mill, was built on the west side of the river by Hiram Hanchett. This is the property now owned by Albert Hein. The mill was exclusively devoted to the handling of hard wood Two cylinder saws were used and seven men were em­ ployed The timber was found in adjacent parts of the county, and supplied all the demands of the mill. The capacity of the saw mill was from 8,000 to 12,000 feet per day. but when run to its extreme limit could be made to produce an amount greatly in excess of these figures. The flouring and feed mills, known for re any years as the Nashville Mills, (now the Citizens Elevator) were built on the east side of the river by Ell and M.V.B. Mallett and G.W. Johnson in 1867, almost directly across the river from the saw mil). The old map of Nashville shows flumes on either side of the dam. The river furnished ample power for the two run of stone for the flour and feed mill. The flour and feed were ground and the im­ mediate neighborhood consumed the entire product of the mills. In 1868 the mills were pur­ chased by Phillip Holler. He at once made many improvements, introducing two turbine wheels, and added another run of stone. He also employed the "new patent process” for the manufacture of flour. The capacity of the mills was 300 bushels for 12 hours.

Down thru the years the mill passed thru a succession of owners--Feighners, Bairs, Johnsons, Barber Brothers, Kyser, Louis Lass and then his son, Otto, and in 1946 was pur­ chased by I. James Rizor who for a period of two or three months had Howard Burchett for a partner. Mr. Rizor converted the mill from a flour mill to a Feed and Grain Elevator and electric motors replaced the water power. When the dam was first con­ structed it was built of brush and sand, and later was improved with stone and cement. About 70 years ago, according to Martin Graham. 84, who has lived in the Nashville area all of his life, the dam "went out" and was not replaced until two years later. The center of Nashville’s early activities seems, according to the history books, to have been located on the north side of the river where it was anticipated the railroad would go thru. But instead, it was constructed a half mile to the south, and the in­ dustries and business establish­ ments sprang up closer to that area. Phillip Holler who owned the mills for years, became Elder of the First-Day. Adventists society, organized October 9, 1878 with a membership of 13. Its first ser­ vices were held in the school house. The early history of Nashville shows it to be a rapidly growing community. On July 4,1867, a big celebration was held when 3.000 persons assembled on the riverbank. In 1874 the prosperity of the village suffered a serious fire which swept away property along Main street valued at nearly 120,060. The result was a general feeling of depression, but eventually new and more im­ posing edifices arose to replace the old buildings. The 1880 history reads: “So great has been the growth and success of this village, numbering little more than ten years of development, that it now ranks as the second commercial and manufacturing centre in Barry County, and its course is still steadily onward and upward." Nashville does not seem destined to become more than a quiet little community with fine churches, schools and small industries. But its residents are proud of their heritage and ap­ preciate the effort put forth to retain the beauty of the dam across Thomapple river. 1,000 Gallons OF FUEL OIL... FREE!

It's all a partkof the old fashioned festivities of a ‘'box social” scheduled for 6 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 26 at the Carlton Center Grange Hall on north M­ 43. For those not familiar with box socials, the object is for the women to prepare a box supper for two. The box or hamper is attractively decorated to entice active bidding by the fellows. Each woman then dines with the gentleman who bought her box. Organizers of the event say the box social was very much a part of the rufal community life, and people might enjoy participating in one again. All women are asked to pledge to bring a box plus a pledge to bring someone to buy a box. Old time square dancing and card playing is also on tap for the evening. A spokesman for the grange said August 26 promises to be an evening of fun and excitement and to help set the atmosphere, patrons of the box social might like to wear their centennial attire. Money raised by the affair will go to support the relocation of the 1885 Carlton Center Methodist Church to Chariton Park.

The musical drama centers around a contemporary doubter, logically named Barry Task Force First in State to Work on Land Use Planning More than 40 members of the Task Force Committees for the Barry County Planning Com­ mission assembled for the first time at a regular Planning Commission meeting. county and Chairman Jim King knowledge, it is the first of Its Mad in the Stale.

Ted McKelvey, Nashville; District 8, Wayne Norris, Hickory Corners; District 9, James King, Bellevue; District 10, Florabeue Stowell, Hastings. Approximately 70 members serve on the committees. Larry Miller, director of Community Planning for Williams & Works of Grand Rapids, pointed out the value of the Task Force. He stated that the Planning Commission is charged with the development of a Comprehensive Plan. The Commission is beginning todevelopea Land Use Plan. The Task Force Committees have the the future use of land areas in the County. "At one time land was considered a commodity to be bought and sold. Now we must consider it as a highly valuable resource which must be used wisely." • A questlooaire was dlstribuied and each Task Force member dated tbe major assets, problems and goals in his district. The results ot the survey will be Thomas, who questions God's way of doing things, although be accepts Him as God and Creator of the universe. Then, fan a series of vignettes, Thomas watches a cross section of humanity come into contact with The Carpenter. The music is uniquely varied and includes nearly every type of form from classical to player piano sound to rock to con­ temporary ballad. It has been compared to "Jesus Christ Superstar," but "The Carpenter" presents Jesus as a virile, problem-solving Go<-Man, decisive and concerned about the needs of mankind.

SI er by Barry Extension Director Nitrogen Cue Self-Regulated Michigan farmers can use more nitrogen fertilizer and increase their crop yields without endangering Michigan's waters. Environmentalists fear that excess nitrogen from crop fer­ tilization may be endangering the state's riversand streams. But in fact use of nitrogen in Michigan Kis self-regulated The average farmer will not use an excess of nitrogen simply because he cannot afford to have it lost to the water table or washed from the surface. The average farmer used less fertilizer than his crops need. For corn, he uses about 75 pounds of nitrogen per acre. He could use an additional 30 to 40 pounds of nitrogen and increase his yields 20 to 30 bushels per acre. Fertilization is really in­ directly a boon to clean water The increased plant growth resulting from fertilization reduces water pollution from soil erosion. Furthermore, the in­ creased foliage returns more organic matter to the soil, in­ creasing water absorbancy and reducing water runoff There is little evidence linking high-nitrogen-containing rivers and streams with fertilization. In Illinois, extensive studies of high-mtrogen waters in areas of fertile soils, extensive drainage systems and fertilized crops turned up no incriminating evidence If we were to eliminate the use of fertilizers, as some en­ vironmentalists would like us to, we would have to substitute about seven acres of land for each ton of fertilizer now used to produce the same amount of food crops. In Michigan, where one million tons of fertilizer are used an­ nually, that would mean seven million acres more land in crop ptoduction This brings up the question of where do you find seven million more acres to feed our population?

Clabs from ell over the county will be asked to staff the displays aad have representatives at the event lo sign up members from their areas for the Fall program. A developmental committee ii working with 4H Youth Agent Bill Kirkpatrick to lay the ground work for the event which will aim at presenting the whole 4H program to the entire mem­ bership and community in one show. Tills will be the kick off event for National 4H week. Barry has long had a strong <H program but many people do not know about the many new opportunities for youth development that are available in 4H. The <H Council will host this new FREE Idea Fair. Stale program personnel are being collected to be present to explain new program offerings and policies. Michigan is a national leader In exploring new ways to make the 4H program serve the needs of the communities. Such Ideas as Family 4H are being tested. IH programs are being operated in Inner city commwities as well aa rural areas. The plan cells for setting up displays and demonslratlons In ss many project Interest areas as possible each lo be staffed with people who will explain the many things members may do. Opportunities for leader training will be presented and there will be a sign up booth for adults as well as members in­ terested in working in the program. While the agricultural projects will be displayed there will also be the newer craft, conservation. scientific, recreation and home interest projects that fit the urban population needs. A new policy in Michigan is to encourage 4H members and leaders to initiate new activities either on an individual or club basis as long as they have educational or social merit. Nearly 100 options were offered at the 4H Exploration Days this year at MSU, the sponsoring organization for 4H in Michigan. You are invited to learn about the exciting new dimensions to the 4H program at the 4H Idea Fair (and Fall Sign-Up) on Sept. 30 from 3 to 10 p.m. at the Mon.-S«t Community Building in Hastings.

August I*. l»7l �EDITORIAL --------------- :------------ by R. M. C.------- ------------------------ Seventy five per cent of the qualified electors in Barry County failed to cast ballots at the Primary Election last week-a disgraceful record. The only consolation is that many other counties did no better Expectations were that with the minimum voting age lowered to eighteen years, the usual percentage of thirty to thirty-five would be substantially improved Actually, the turn-out was at an all-time low. • A possible reason for the low vote both here and elsewhere was the illogical manner in which former voting districts were cut apart and reassembled For example, is there any sane reason why Four small segments of the county should be combined with three other state senatorial districts leaving a major portion of the county to be combined with a fourth state senatorial district? Thus it will take four state senators, each with his own bit of territory, to represent our fractured little county in the State Senate. This confirms our opinion that the former Warren Court didn't have the least idea what it was doing when it handed down its edict regarding voting districts-In fact, we have always thought that the Court was overstepping its intended authority in coming through with such an opinion But who is to over rule the Supreme Court on a decision of this nature. That is a flaw in our system not envisioned by the men who framed the Constitution All of Barry county except one little portion of Orangeville township is in the 55 States Representative District Half of Orangeville Township is in the 45 State Representative District, a jig­ saw puzzle layout that extends southwestward to the shore of Lake Michigan! When it comes to Congressional Districts, all of Barry County except Thornapple and Yankee Springs townships remain in the Third District as at present. However, the two townships mentioned above have been thrown in with Kent County Thus the two portions of the county will have two Congressmen in the House of Represen­ tatives at Washington. We don’t know who served on the Legislative Reapportionment Committee. But. regardless of their qualifications, or lack of same, it is evident that most of them were jig-saw puzzle nuts as well. The present situation is perfectly ridiculous and will probably get worse unless something is done to curb these imaginative Gerry manderers who evidently have political larceny in their hearts. Until the county system is repealed by popular vote, the county unit should be the minimum unit with which these reapportionment laddies should have the right to work. If it takes slate legislative or even Congressional action to get this done, let’s get on with the job before it is too late. In our opinion, the State of Michigan could save thousands of dollars in election expenses by doing away with the requirement for rotation of names on printed ballots As conditions are today with so many fractional representative and senatorial districts that extend into the county, this rotation doubles the cost of ballot printing-to say nothing of extra work and checking required by the county clerk’s office. Rotation of names is neither required nor possible on the voting machines which accounts for a major share of the total vote. As a matter of fact, quite a substantial percentage of printed ballots are used by the absent voters and there, the rotation of names in meaningless. So. if a non-rotation set-up is considered fair for all concerned on the voting machines, why does not the same thing apply on printed ballots4 As a matter of fact, the rotation requirement is a holdover from times long past and which now has no significance-if indeed it ever had any. Probably in this era of big government spending, a saving of a hundred thousand dollars or so, has no meaning. But. the sum total of othrf needless expenditures which undoubtedly exist, might add up to a rather impressive total. Government costs today are so high that savings of any degree are in order. Thus, we believe that a discon­ tinuation of the rotation requirement in printed ballots might be a good place to begin In Sargent Shriver, the Democratic National Committee has named an individual who is no novice in politics and who will bring to the campaign at least a hint of the noted Kennedy ‘’charisma. ” In fact, he campaigned for John Kennedy in 1960 and is given major credit for helping to give the president his slim margin in some of the industrial states President Kennedy turned to Shriver to head the Peace Corps which got away to an enthusiastic start. He served as ambassador to France under both Johnson and Nixon As head of the Office of Economic Opportunity and the War on Poverty he was criticizedior spending so much time and money on setting up a series of well-equipped offices throughout the Nation in an attempt to do too much in too short a time and without a comprehensive long-range program As a result, lacking adequate organizations at the neigh­ borhood levels, only small portions of the entire expenditures filtered down to those who needed it most. In spite of this he does have executive ability that should be of great assistance to the floundering McGovern organization. Furthermore, he accepted this "second hand" nomination with real enthusiasm and will be a tough cam­ paigner Republicans will do well not to discount the presence of Shriver on the Democratic ticket. From now on in, the G O P. should run scared and take nothing for granted-polls to the contrary not­ withstanding We are glad we are not in the bumper sticker business A firm in Neu England, so we read, humcd into print with some fifty thousand. McGovern Eagleton stickers in order to be there "firstest with the mostest only to have Eagleton withdraw before distribution was well underway. Then came good indications that Sen. Edmond S. Muskie, would be the man-So, after a rapid change-over, thousands of McGovern Muskie stickers began to rolloff the press. But even that was not to be The final decision is for a McGovern-Shriver ticket and it is now too late in the game for this firm to get to market in time to comer the presidential bumper-sticker business However, all may not be lost The firm is being besieged with collectors who want to buy the now out-of-date stickers to hold for a possible appreciation in value Even the august Smithsonian Institute wants to own some ot these obsolete versions' Perhaps, for the now luckless printer, this will be-with apologies to Shakespeare-another case of "All’s Well That End’s WeU " Although we are as much against murder, manslaughter or other forms of violent crime as anyone, we believe the U.S. Senate was right in rejecting a proposal involving a ban on private ownership of pistols and revolvers and another calling for a nationwide system of registration-including fingerprinting and photograph! ng-of all gun 4......... THE HASTINGS BANNER.......... August 16, 1972 owners Neither proposal, in our opinion, would reduce crimes involving the use of fire arms. Those mostly affected would be the sportsmen and gun collectors who constitute a major percentage of the gun owners in this nation and are not a factor in violent crimes. «_ An individual who carries a pistol or revolver is required under present law to get a police permit and to register the firearm in­ volved. Those who fed they have a logical reason to carry firearms voluntarily obey this law Criminally-minded individuals having other reasons than sdf protection are the ones who break this law and would continue to break any "new and tough" laws passed by state legislatures or Congress The only way anti-gun laws could be ef­ fectively enforced would be a senes of massive search and seizure operations involving everyone. It is not difficult to imagine the tremendous cost of such operations-or the number of new employees that would have to be added to state and federal pavrolls-nor the injustice, inconvenience and personal affront it would be to the 99.9 per cent of dtizens not involved in any way in the misuse of firearms. Regardless of any and all gun control laws that Congress may pass now or in the future, the effect on crimes of violence will be minimal. Those comparatively few individuals bent on murder will always be able to get firearms from some illegitimate source. Sportsmen, gun collectors and those having a legitimate use for firearms need no more laws than are already on the books. Senator Phil Hart of Michigan is quoted as saying: "All handguns have one primary purpose -lo kill or seriously wound other human beings. . .for me the evidence is compelling and leads to one con­ clusion: Privately owned handguns-of any kind-simply have no place in today’s society." If that quotation is correct, the Senator, in this area at least, is completely 7*off his rocker." We know dozens of individuals who are collectors and who find the same interest and fascination in this bby as do stamp and coin collectors. We know literally hundreds of others who get the same satisfaction out of target and skeet shooting as golfers, tennis players, etc., do out of their own specialized sports. An overwhelming majority of gun owners possess them for perfectly legitimate reasons that are not a discredit to themselves or to society. The Senator would probably agree that a carving knife or even a kitchen knife has a legitimate place in today's society. However, either of these devices can be as deadly as guns when it comes to . inflicting severe and fatal wounds. We have not seen the statistics but it is probable that as many people are killed or maimed each year by stabbing as by gunfire. Sen Edward Kennedy did his senatorial colleagues an injustice when be termed their opposition to his elaborage ana impractical gun registration propoaal-that included the photographing and finger­ printing of gun owners-as yielding to the lobby pressure of the National Rifle Association. In this instance, logic was all on the side of the Rifle Association. Bn . Rather than a spate of new gun control laws, the United States needs to increase the speed and efficiency of its system of justice. As of now, the law has an endless number of technical loopholes that can lead to time-consuming delays. For example, five years after a policeman was charged with involvement in a murder at the Algiers Motel during the riots in Detroit, the criminal charges against him have only now been dismissed. However, other civil actions are pending in the U.S. District Court in Detroit-and no one knows when they will come to trial-if ever. With all these delays and technical loopholes, is it any wonder that criminals have less and less fear and respect for our slow-moving legal processes4 r-Voice—। I---------------OF THE PEOPLE —» To the Editor: While reading one of our local papers today, I noticed an ad for the volunteers wanting to pick people up and take them to the doctors office. I think this really is uncalled-for. We do have a cab in this town and it seems to me that the volunteers should be closing down their service instead of trying to gel more customers For a long time we cried for some kind of transportation to get us artkmd town, so the volunteer thing was started. We still wanted a cab because we wanted »be independent. I for one have rer liked to impose on other people and beg for a ride to the store or to the doctor's office. What I really want to say is. I can’t understand why the volunteers are looking for more customers and go so far as to advertise for them. This seems really stupid to me. Spending money for advertising, gas and everything else it takes to run an automobile when it is not needed anymore You helped out when we really needed help, but it is not necessary anymore We have what we asked for and it is very nice. Now why not spend your time and money on something else that could help us older people One thing would be a place in front of the stores that we could sit down and rest.

Back in March. 1968, the wheels of progress were turning to continue an ambulance service for residents of Maple Grove and Castleton townships and Nash­ ville. In the months prior to this, individual ambulance services in Barry County were going out of business for financial reasons partially created through stricter regulations requiring a full time trained assistant It was then the Castleton­ Maple Grove Ambulance Service was organised, and they pur­ chased the George Vogt Funeral Home Ambulance. It was manned by the Nashville Volunteer Fire Department. Some of the firemen already had first aid1, basic and advanced classes. >nd others signed up for the course The service has worked out well for the area. Present officers are: President, William Schantz Supervisor of Maple Grove township; Secretary. Jerry Kent, firemen, treasurer, Larry Decker, fireman, and trustees. Mrs Mary Jarrard, Maple Grove, Russell Mead, Super­ visor, and Norman Sandbrook of Castleton township, and George Frith, from the Nashville council. Several mouths ago a call went out (or contributions for a new ambulance. The response was fantastic. More than 83,500 was donated, and this, plus another 1600 from the sale of the old ambulance, provided enough for the new vehicle. Then the firemen went to work changing over the old equipment to the new vehicle, built cabinets, added a few new items, and with contributions still coming in they hope to purchase a new radio which will be on the Hospital Emergency Radio Network (HERN). This will coat about 81,200 They will be able to contact area hospitals who are connected via the HERN band. The ambulance is equipped also wKh an oxygen kit, a power aspirator which runs off either the truck battery or its own battery, and other equipment as required by the State. When an ambulance Is needed, one should call the fire number, Nashville 852-8618. slate whether It Is an ambulance of fire call, and give explicit directions as to the location where help Is needed. Charges for ambulance runs to cither Hastings or Charlotte hospitals, 830; to Battle Creek, 835; I^ansing, 850, and Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo, 860. Three are residents covered by the fire department For non­ residents. 83S plus 81.00 loaded mile. If oxygen is needed, there is another 85 charge. Thirteen of the 16 firemen are qualified to operate the am­ bulance. These men are. Dick Martin, Don Augustine, Lee Christopher, Wallace Graham. Robert Wood, Douglas Yarger (FireChief), Eldon Day, Michael Appelman, Fred Ackett, Wesley Erwin, Larry Decker. Jerry Kent and l^eon Ackett. Hres.

The new ambulance is equipped with an oxygen kit, power aspirator and other equipment The men hope to purchase a new radio which will be on the Hospital Emergency Radio Network (HERN), so they will be able to contact area hospitals which are on the HERN band.

They claim that an identical non-conforming use has been permitted in the immediate area and that Althea Hoover was advised by Andrew Downing that if her husband, Ralph, had been more pleasant to said Andrew Downing he might have made an exception and permitted placement of the mobile home on the premises.

Fashion For Women Hooven own premises in the township and a 1967 12 by 60-foot mobile home which provides more floor space than the minimum required by the township's building code. The Hoovers said in June. 1972, they began building a road into their lot. and a tile field, and moved the mobile home there preparatory to making it their weeks of suffering and unem­ ployment. Eve injuries keep about 2,600 employees from their jobs each year, while 650 are off due to head injuries. However, the Department points out that most of these types of injuries could have been prevented by wearing safety shoes, safety glasses, and hard hats where needed. In addition, the Department says that while the wearing of certain apparel may prevent injuries, other types may produce them Statistics show that 332 lost time injuries oc­ curred in the state over a 12­ month period due to wearing gloves white operating certain machines in which the gloves became entangled. Loose clothing caused 124 lost time injuries and rings worn by em­ ployees caused 200 others So when dressing for the job the department suggests-that em­ ployees consider both the protection and the hazards their clothing may present.

Editorials By Mark Andrews The recent decision that Senator Thomas Eagleton be dropped from the Democratic vice-preaidentlal spot was a terrible tragedy for life American public and quite probably waa a suicidal mistake for the party's chances in the who in recent veers, has ad­ mitted that he is human and like the rest of us has human fallacies. He is a member of a rare race of men who put honesty above the chance to obtain a high political office. Our government needs more honest men who don’t resort to lying in order to gain the public’s ‘confidence. The fact that Mr. Eagleton didn't disclose his past medical history until after his nomination should have made no difference. Honesty is an ingredient badly needed in our society today. Senator Eagleton's example must not go unnoticed. It is the honest men who work in the best interest of the people that con­ tinue to make our democratic way of life work. It is this honesty that make ordinary men into great martyrs of society. Senator Eagleton proved that he has these qualities and proved himself to be a man of the people. oclton tm-n SCHOOL CALENDAR March 1—Raturn to School March I morning March »*-!»— Spring break, no school.

I have heard people talk about the unpardonable sin. What is it? A. (continued) We now come to the third area that you might classify as an unpardonable sin. Ibis area is ui*pardonable only in the sense that there is a con­ tract between God and man and if man fails to meet the con­ ditions of the contract he fails to get the benefits because there is no other wav. The Bible is God’s contract with men. The Old Testament with Abraham's decendents, called Israel, “for all Israel” Malachi 4:46 The New Testament is with "whosoever will.” John 3:16. This then is the essence of the contract. “And this is the record (contract), that God has given to us eternal life, and this life is in his son He that has the Son has life; and he that has not the Son of God has not life. . .1 John 5:12 This is the eternal divide and there is no other. The evidence then runs like this. "In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the ravil; whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother." I Jn. 3:10. This then is it, the only contract for forgiveness of sins and eternal life. Jesus said “I am the wajd the truth, and the life; no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” John 14:6. "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. ” Acts 4:12 Jesus also said, “Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life; and they are they which testify of me. And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.” John 5:39-40 To ignore, put off or refuse this offer will record for you just one life long mistake. Can you afford to be wrong, in this area? This life is a testing ground. Testing rather you will choose to be with God or to rebel against Him The conclusion men is this. 1 The only unpardonable sin. to blaspheme the Holy Spirit. Mark 3:29 *2 "There is a sin unto death.” I John 5:16 Where there’s life, there's hope. Recent today 3 There is only one way to eternal life and heaven, through the shed blood of Jesus Christ the Son of God." "Strait is the gate and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Matthew 7:14b. If you miss the way it would have been better if you never had been born. 18.........

Golfers from all over are eligible to enter the Captain's Choice, bestball twosome event. The first day's play will be at River Bend, where players will shoot into flights. The second round will be at the Hastings Country Club. River Bend's Don Haywood and HCC's Cal Wilson are the tourney chairmen. The field is to be limited to 100 teams. The entry fee is 915 a man, with prizes to be awarded in each flight. Golfers missed a great show when Paul Hahn performed Saturday, Aug. 12, at the Hastings Country Club. The noted trick shot artist gave forth for more than an hour, and the relatively small gallery was highly pleased. Hann, who presented his show to some 7,000 during the PGA at Oakland Hills, gave a quick golf clinic to start his show, showing the basics of golf-the grip, stance, address and the swing. He also demonstrated various shots-both good and bad, and some of the latter looked as though he was duplicating "Old Buzz's" results’ Hahn told how important the overlapping grip is, demon­ strated three types of stances for three distinct types of shots. He probably got the best laughs from demonstrating the wiggle and the swing. But he emphasized the im­ portance of practice’ Conservation Officer Brent Willison reports that fishing in the area hasn't been too bad, despite the recent rains and cold weather. Saturday, Aug. 12. we had quite a bit of fishing pressure and the bluegills out of Wall Lake were running 6W to 8*4 inches. Red worms were being used in 12 to 15 feet of water. Hall and Deep Lakes have been producing 12 to 14 inch bass using artificial night crawlers. Pike fishing hasn't been too good, mainly because this is the time that the pike lose their teeth Willison explains that when pike shed their teeth, their mouths get sore and they don't eat too much. About the first part of September they should be back feeding normally again. Fishing has been unusually good for August in other areas, because the water temperatures have remained down. "We might not have a real slow fishing period this year," Willison said. Outdoor Trail-Receipts from Michigan's 1971 sale of hunting and fishing licenses rose to a record 911.6 million, some 91.7 million above the previous high set the year before The rise in revenues reflects a strong upturn in fishing license seles and in­ creases in Michigan’s hunting fees for firearm deer, archery deer and small game. Trout and salmon stamps climbed to about 343.000 for a new record which topped the 1970 figure by about 13,000. Michigan sold 837.460 resident fishing licenses, the highest since 1958 and up about 30.000 over 1970. The State also sold about 97,170 senior resident fishing licenses, about 4,300 more than the year before. Non­ resident fishing licenses rose to 137.460 fqr their best mark since 1956. Out-of-state anglers also bought more than 53,000 sevenday licenses. On the other side, totals for firearm deer, small game and archery deer, and bear, were all down from their 1370 levels This was partially offset by higher sales of the sportsman's and senior citizen big game licenses in 1971. There were 56,100 sportsman’s licenses (covering all types of fishing and carries the privileges of firearm and archery deer, bear, small game and trapping except for beaver and otter), an increase of 41,000 over 1970.

Gen. Frank J. Kelley explained. , Tooav, Michigan consumers have the unconditional right to rescind any. contract made in their home for the sale of goods and services over 135.00. This right to rescind runs for three business days after you sign the contract in your home. The law does not cover sales of insurance, agricultural equipment, hor­ ticultural products, sales made pursuant to pre-existing revolving charge accounts, or sales made pursuant to prior negotiations at a local business establishment. The law reouires the contract taken in the home to contain a prominent disclosure that it is such a contract and that the consumer has a right to cancel by giving written notice to the company's address listed. The notice to rescind does not require technical or specific wording. but a consumer may rescind by any form of written expression showing such'a motive. If a company delivers goods to your home before the can­ cellation period expires, and you do cancel within three business days, you are required to take Up In Flames-Flames, started on purpose, destroyed this old house on M-79 at the Tbornappie Lake Road.

If he does not, you may keep the goods, or do with them as you desire, Atty. Gen. Kelley added. Any services performed by a seller at a consumers home during the three business day period, are free if the consumer cancels the contract in the time allowed. Any seller or holder of a con­ tract who lates sues a consumer on a contract solicited in his home must also prove that they were at all times in compliance with the law, otherwise they are precluded from using the courts. Finally, this new law Saturday morning. Aug. 12, burned an old home on M-79 at the Thornapple Lake road for training purposes, and also because the new owner wanted It down.

Bill Baxter was third in the first day's competition in Maiden Equitation Over Fences, 14 and under Miss Mortill has the equestrian from which has made her eligible to ride in the National Horse Show at Madison Square Garden in New York in November Sue is one of the top jupior riders and, with her horse.

And those early eating habits are generally picked up by imitating parents. Those are the results of a recent study at Michigan State University. । For her master’s thesis, Miss I Nancy Beyer studied the food habits of a group of healthy, middle-class, elementary school­ age children who had been studied as preschoolers. Her findings indicate that food habits I established among preschoolers I remain consistent into the I elementary school years. I The study also emphasizes the I importance of training children I to eat nutritiously at an early I Me I A survey of snacking habits I among the children showed that 1 the patterns set up by the preschoolers tend to remain consistent. Those who snacked on “empty'* calories-soft drinks, sweets, potato chips, etc.continued to do so. and those who ate nutritious snacks were also Weekly Pancakes-Hastings Bota ria ns (or many Summers have been preparing pancake* and sausage each Thursday during the season at the YMCA Camp at Algonquin Lake, and Other food likes and dislikes slowed some changes during the two to four years between studies. The children at the elementary school age preferred meat and mixed dishes more than they had at the younger age Their dislike for vegetables remained about the same and the popularity of liver declined. Miss Beyer's study points out that children learn their food habits by imitating their parents. Therefore it is necessary, she says, that from the start parents provide children with an example of good nutrition. It is much easier, she notes, to establish good food habits in young children than to try to correct poor ones later. Miss Beyer will soon submit a report of her findings for publication in a professional journal. She conducted her research under the direction of Dr. Portia Morris, associate Gofeesor of food science and man nutrition. The »e*vee ere gentty felling. I bear e eatt ve«ce say.

Select a small slx-lo 12-pound bird. If the turkey Is fresh-frozen, thaw It. then rinse and wipe dry. Tie wings securely, then tie drumsticks together. Do not stuff turkeys for the rotisserie. Miss Shinabarger advises. Instead, brush the inside of the bird with marinade. Insert spit rod in front of tail and run it through the breast bone. Fasten the rod tightly at both ends with spit forks, and tie securely with twine. Then adjust the spit for balance. Insert a thermometer into the thickest part of the breast or thigh.

By Pauline Hani The pictures used in the story were taken in Crawford and Roscommon Counties where Green Belt zoning is in effect Distances used are those in effect in these Counties. What about the Thornapple River? It is still an excellent stream with much natural property surrounding it, but the old-timers or local people of some years can tell of the degradation and spoiling of the river • Although much of the river is presently wild or natural, most <g the river is privately owned. This places much of the responsibility of protecting the river from further degradation on the river front property owners. With increasing affluence, mobility, population, and leisure time this previously wild land will be developed Unless something is done to guide river property development, areas, formerly sancturies and breeding grounds for wild life, will be ruled and turned into subdivisions. River front property will be made into parks and homes. Trees and shrubs, coyer and protection for fish and animals, may be cut away to make suburban like lawns lined with cement sea walls. Waste dumped into the river will create a sewer. Erosion and misuse will change the course and depth of the river. Sometime, somehow, someone must step in to prevent this.

At The ‘ �Baby at 3 ANNOUNCING OUR GREATEST Months Begins to do Things (Note: To the parents of a new baby, knowing what to expect in that first year is quite a challenge. The following tips are excerpts from a brief, easy to read series of four short bulletins on “You and Your haby.” You may obtain a set by contacting your local Cooperative Extension Home Economist, Martha Kuhn located at 3S1 8. Michigan Avenue in Hastings, phone MS5121). By three months of age, your baby is not just being anynjorehe is beginning to do things He is more active and begin­ ning to explore the world around him, with his eyes, his touch and ail his other senses. He recognizes his mother and father and can tell familiar faces from strangers. He likes to be where he can see people, especially his mother, and he needs the attention she gives to reassure him he is loved and protected. By three months, your infant is moving all the time, and he can lift his head when lying on his stomach and rotate it freely to survey Ms expanding world. His movements are preparing him to roll completely over, so It is not safe to leave him alone on a table or a bed for an instant He may roll off. Cryina may try his mother's nerves but it also helps him to develop the fundamental skill of taking in air quickly and letting it out slowly while making sounds. His early cries sounded pretty much alike, but around the end of three months, his cry is begin­ ning to sound different according to his needs. His “I'm hungry” cry is not his "I’m wet” cry, and "I hurt” has yet another sound to it. Talking to the baby is im­ portant because he needs practice in hearing different sounds. When he begins “talking back,” his babbling and gurgles are giving his tonflue, lips and 6w the exercise that prepares m for speech. The baby's first encounter with solid food is likely to be a little messy, since he has not yet learned how his tongue works and how to control it. If his mother has a relaxed attitude, ’ she’ll convey it to the child and make the experience less trying for all concerned. The bulletin also includes tips on making your own baby food-if you’re interested. Whether you buy baby food or store homemade goodies in iars, be sure to remove portions from the jar and feed it from a dish. Anything not eaten should be thrown away, so feeding from a dish saves on food and lessens the chance of food spoilage as a result of taking the spoon and saliva from the baby's mouth and returning it to the far. Between three and six months the baby begins to teethe. Some have more discomfort and problems than others, but almost all will try to put everything they can grasp into their mouths Part of this is due to teething, part to a growing interest in exploring the environment. They will chew, so provide them with teething rings and other chewable objects. But be sure that toys will not splinter or break. They should be large enough that he baby cannot swallow4ham, and without sharp points at rough edges or parts that can come loose to be swallowed (button eyes on stuffed animals, for instance). If painted, it should be lead-free paint. And toys should be washable.

Cets Should Apply for College Benefits Veterans who plan to enter college this Fall should do their homework now in order to receive their first G.I. Bill check on time. Robert M. FitzGerald, director, ______ Veterans Administration Regional Office in Detroit, urged veterans to con­ tact his office at once in order to avoid delays later on. FitzGerald said the first thing a veteran should do is decide on an educational objective. He should choose a school and apply for admission as soon as possible. “Application for a certificate of eligibility should be made as soon as the school has been chosen," FitzGerald said. "VA will send two copies of the certificate, which must be submitted to the school. The school will endorse one copy and forward it to tne VA Regional Office.” The VA official strongly suggested the veteran check back with the school to make certain the certificate has been forwarded. This will assure the veteran of receiving his monthly education allowance checks promptly. To be eligible for educational benefits a veteran or serviceman must have served at least 181 days of continuous active duty, any part of it after Jan. 31, 1965. Men separated from service because of service connected disability are eligible without regard to length of service. Michigan veterans should contact the Veterans Ad­ ministration Regional Office, P.O. Box 1117-A, by mail , or visit the office at 801 W. Baltimore at Third. Phone: 874-1575.

One of the ingredients of effective community planning is good land use. and basic to good land use is knowledge of the soils. Nearly all of man’s activities ultimately rest on soils. "The major foundation on which People Are Dropping Like Flies to the Delton office of Byington Realtors as the great rush for homes begins just before school opening. The twelve people in the office are madly rushing prospects through the listings but unfortunately there isn't enough to go around. Anyone who has a house to sell is urgently asked to call 623-2770, to help alleviate the housing shortage. Everyone's cooperation is necessary. Several builders are frantically trying to meet deadlines but due to severe shortages are unable to keep up. Present homeowners may be asked to sell and move to other areas to make room for the new people moving in. community planning I* developed," says Dan Feather, work unit conservationist, with Soil Conservation Service here, "Is the soil." The different kinds, their location, and their limitations all have an effect in determining their best use. Today, in many of the com­ munities of Barry County, there is keen competition for land by various users. New houses, shopping centers, schools, fac­ tories. highways. Mrks, and other features need 'adequate space within a community. At the edges of our expanding com­ munities, these needs compete with the needs of farming, forestry, and recreation To nieet all the needs and to insure orderly development, many communities are planning their future growth. However, without adequate knowledge of soils, serious problems may arise in community developments. Buildings and roads may crack and settle. Basements fill with water. Septic filter fields fail to operate correctly. Ground water and streams become polluted. Erosion occurs and sediment fills drainage ways and streams, increasing the flood hazard. Once these problems occur, they are very costly to correct. Poor land use can be avoided if community planners recognize the important role or soils in good land use planning. Soil maps made by the U.S. Soil Con­ ANIMAL ABONDONMENT NOTICE! The Barry County Humane Society will pay TWENTY-FIVE DOLLARS ($25.00) to any one supplying in­ formation of the abandonment of an animal which results in the conviction of this offense under Michigan law. Ttys notice paid for by Barry County Humane Society. Family Checking. servation Service and other ageddiM ’ fiWrlbe and locate different kinds of soil. General interpretations are available for each soil. Each soil has a degree of limitation for a particular use. A well drained sandy loam on gentle slopes has few or slight limitations for buildings, roads, and other types of construction. A poorly drained clay soil, on the other hand, has severe limitations for houses, septic disposal systems, highways, and other building projects of a modern community. Some soil is subject to flooding and has severe limitations for developing a residential area, but has slight limitations for developing a park or recreation area. Based on the soil map and facts provided by soil interpretations, community planners can develop general use maps. They are an effective means of showing areas on the soil map that have slight, moderate, or severe limitations for any in­ tended use. For example, areas with limitations for residential development without public sewers would be particularly important to planners in rapidly expanding communities. Once the map is made, the patterns of soils are readily apparent Community planners can quick’v select areas that have potential for residential development and at the same time exclude areas of severe limitations. "Soil map* have been made for many areas in Barry County," says Floyd Miller, chairman of Barry Soil Conservation District. Information plotted on these maps and facts on different kinds of soil are available to com­ munity planners. This in­ formation can be obtained at the U.S. Soil Conservation Service office at 301 S. Michigan. Realizing the value of soil maps, community planners in several counties are cost sharing with State and Federal governments in an accelerated soil survey program. The program is designed to meet the current needs of community planners for up-to-date soils maps as rapidly as possible. Planning for the future is a must. Community planning that uses soil facts will avoid those costly future problems resulting from poor land use.

C.-------------------------------------- - It dicta't get much play in the Media but North Vietnamese rocket »rrages directed against Danang and Chu Lai, accordinfl to AP and JP1 reports, heavilv hit into nearby civilian areas as well, killinc 28 Hvilians and wounding 37. This is not an isolated instance but rather in example of tactics used by Viet Cong guerrillas to intimidate rivili^n populations into submission. The number of South Viet­ namese civilians who have been maimed and slaughtered in murtarous raids runs into the thousands. Such ugly facts as the above are nerlooked by the super-Dove. self-appointed '•envoys" to Hanoi who •eport back only the things that the North Vietnamese top brass jvants them to see and report. The U.S. Media, too, has not given "equal space" and xominence to the slaughter of civilians that have followed in the wake of guerrilla and hit-run rocket attacks against cities and tillages in South Vietnam. Such one-sided attitudes as mentioned iboye are. in our opinion, important factors that encouraee Hanoi to talay making any settlement at the “Peace Conference" in Paris. Presidential Candidate George McGovern, now admits-after irst denying-that he sent Pierre Salinger to Paris to contact the North Vietnamese mission there. Even though the contact was as nformal and innocent as claimed, it still represents private iiplomacy and meddling in an international affair of extreme delicacy. Mr. McGovern might better have accepted the President’s rffer for a briefing and sent his questions, personal views, etc., to Paris through presidential adviser, Henry Kissinger. This would iave squelched any suggestion of “backdoor" dealing. Both McGovern and Salinger should know^better than to have become involved in this deal. In our opinion, former Attorney General Ramsey Clark exhibits in incredible degree of naivete when he characterized the North Vietnamese as “such a genial, simple and beautiful people " . Evidently Mr Clark chooses to overlook the thousands of itrocities inflicted on the civilians of South Vietnam by these "genial, ample and beautiful people "-atrocities that include the torture and daughter of civilians, and the destruction of schools, hospitals and ■ntire villages. Mr. Clark also made himself Hanoi's representative in the United States to influence the forthcoming Presidential Election He is juoted in the press as having said that the editor of North Vietnam’s eading paper told him the release of prisoners of war could begin fan. 20.1973-inauguration day-and all prisoners freed within 90 days f a new administration is elected in the United States-and, added □ark, "I believe it." Clark, it must be remembered is a supporter of he Democratic presidential candidate McGovern. It is evident that the former Attorney General swallowed all of he Hanoi propaganda hook, line and sinker. The very clever Hanoi officials quickly sized up the easy gullibility of the person with whom hey were dealing and acted accordingly All of these unofficial “do-gooder" envoys to Hanoi are, in our ipinion. merely delaying the date of an official settlement in Paris ind thus delaying the date when the prisoners of war will be released. It should not be forgotten that as an aftermath of the previous jombinghalt, ordered by former President Johnson, Hanoi used the ntervening months to move troops south in comparative safety and o build up simply bases in Supposedly neutral Laos and Cambodia in support of military action against Saigon and South Vietnam. Envoys were »nt to Paris as agreed but the conferences were used merely to spread Hanoi propaganda throughout the world and to stall for time The promise of Hanoi to begin serious talk "after a halt in the jombing" can be taken for what it really is-a totally unrealiable itatement., We are glad to learn that Probate Judge Mary Coleman of ?alhoun County plans to enter her name as a candidate for justice erf he Michigan Supreme Court. Judge Coleman had a distinguished areer as a practicing attorney before serving as Judge of Probate, in which capacity she has been widely recognized for her legal mowledge, her common sense and her human understanding She las all of the qualifications for the office she seeks-and it is an un­ tamable fact that the Michigan Supreme Court as presently conrtituted badly needs to be rejuvmated with new justices of her talent Who would ever have thought that a chess tournament could vie or headlines with such standard sports as baseball, football and golf9 But such is the case. Bobby Fischer is either a super heel or a super jromoter because it is his antics as well as his genius that have ocused world attention on the match now underway in Iceland. In act, the tournament news from Reykjavik is usually given a prominent headline on page I. Chess is not a sport, in the ordinary iense but rather a conflict of intellects. Action is limited-almost non­ existent, in fact-since it is often more than an hour between moves. Chess is probably the worlds most complicated game and a tamanding one for those who attempt to master it. Variations in the ine of play are countless. Yet, many of us who haven’t seen a chess ward in years-or perhaps never-fdlow with considerable interest the test of wits now going on in Iceland's little capital city. A chess tournament is something like a contest between two armies in the field, each commanded by a military genious-only in this case there is no bloodshed, loss of life or destruction of property. Even those totally unacquanited with the game of chess follow with interest the results of the play. But we wonder, would all this have been the case if Bobby Fischer hadn’t behaved like an eccentric spoiled brat to call attention to the fact that international honors with the recognized world champion, who is a representative of the Iron Curtain coun­ tries. We were tremendously impressed with "The Carpenter." given by a group of dedicated and talented young people at Central Auditorium here Saturday evening. The music was beautiful and impressive An ingenious picture and sound arrangement buttressed both the music and the action on the stage. Built around the character of "doubting" St. Thomas, this lovely little musical drama asked many question that are bothering young people today-questions, in fact, that have raised doubts in the mends of people of all ages during the past twenty centuries Although “The Carpenter" did not appear in person, the power of HIS personality was much in evidence, ready to give strength and comfort to those who believe in HIM and accept HIS authority. 4...

There are also people who have to go out of town to hospitals and as the IAlscs only go through here twice a clay they need help to get there.

The curriculum at KCC ranges from. 2 year transfer programs that wifi eventually lead to a B.A., to one year certificate and two year associate degree studies in business, health, vocational, or technical fields such as drafting and design technology. The KCC approach to ad­ ministration of convenient offcampus classes has been ex­ panded with a selection of over 60 courses offered at area high schools that include: Albion, Marshall, Coldwater, Homer, Union City, Athens, Hastings, Bellevue, Olivet, Lakeview, Harper Creek. Maple Valley and Delton. The Fall semester brings with it more than an increase in the size of the student body. A new associate two-year degree program in automotive technology in addition to eight new certificate programs will add to the already widely ac­ cepted technology curriculam. New certificate programs are architectural drafting and residential planning, electronics, electro-mecnanical, industrial drafting, industrial engineering and manufacturing, automotive mechanics and a teachers aid program. In an attempt to provide the best opportunity for placement of graduating students, KCC recently established a separate office headed by Denzil Bell, who received his M.A in student personnel administration from MSU this year.

And for many communities it was more fund raising than anything else. Money to buy supplies for the church, a new desk for the school teacher or curtains for the grange hall. Residents of Carlton Center, a small community north of Hastings, are typical of those remaining in rural areas who willingly and eagerly go about the task of raising money. Four Carlton Center women, working to raise money for their Grange at the 1972 Indian Pow Wow at Charlton Park reminisced about rural fund raising projects as they busily put up hot dogs and barbecues. Mrs Bea Carpenter, who has worked on many, many suppers, recalls working at an oyster supper to raise funds for the “that was back in 1916 and we did all kinds of things to raise money for that addition. The fresh oyster suppers were held during the winter months," she said, “because the ice boxes back then were not as good as they are today." “After a (athion,“ she said, “we finally came up with enough money U» go ahead with con­ struction. Coming up with funds either dangle their shoe or hand out the curtain and the auc­ tioneer would try to sell It. Highest bidder ate supper with the person with whom the hand or shoe belonged. After supper Mrs. Carpenter said, we either square danced, played cards, and many times participated in games. Favorite among many, she recalls, was winkum, fruit basket and skip to my lou. "We tried she said with a giggle, to avoid playing the post office game because there were many of us that didn't like to kiss. ’ Asked why, she replied, because there were so many people you didn't like to kiss.'' Everyone had a good time back then, said Mrs Barry, and I doubt the box social will ever return as a major fund raiser, however It would be fun to attend one now and then. If the Barry County Pomona Grange has their way, the public will have a box social. The Grange is sponsoring a social Saturday, Aug. 26, at the Carlton Center Grange Hall on north M-43 as a fund raising project to help relocate the 1885 Carlton Center Methodist Church to Charlton Park Village & Museum. Tours of the church begin at 5 p.m. Organizers say box social bidding is set for 6 p.m. with Gordon Barlow of Hastings as the auctioneer. Card playing and old time square dancing is planned. Red Raber’s Orchestra is providing the music and Charlie Hauser of Middleville is the caller. An open invitation is being sent out by the Pomona Grange to all those interested in recapturing a little bit of yesteryear.

"We’ve tried everything and anything to make money, Mrs. Carpenter chuckled, “and none of us has been afraid to work.” There were dutch suppers with sauerkraut and wieners, food booths at the Barry County Fair, Mother’s Day dinners, pancake suppers, smorgasbords, card parties and square dancing. Mrs. Carpenter’s 65 year old sister, Peg Shroyer, said she thought the most popular money raising project was a box social because of the ease of spon­ sorship. Socials, said Mrs. Shroyer, were held in the home before the advent of the automobile. Usually 60 to 70 people attended. Mrs. Mabie Barry joined the conversation after waiting on a customer and added, "Whenever we needed some money we generally sponsored a box social." “Back then,” Mrs. Barry recalled, “a little was a lot, and we considered our social suc­ cessful if it netted 850." Mrs. Letha Palmer, drawing off a cup of black coffee, said “You know the object of a social is to get the women to pack a supper for two, and get the fellows to bid on the boxes.” It sure can be entertaining, she added. To entice active bidding each box is decorated. “I can remember,” Mrs. Carpenter said, "taking a box wrapped in the funny papers." There is no end to the possibilities of decoratings box. Mrs. Carpenter recommends the Ideal box is a suuare boot box. But then, she aads, "any box win do.” Everything and anything goes into a box supper Mrs. Palmer said. Sandwiches, cake, cookies, fruit and relishes. Success of a box social according to the women, depends on the auc­ tioneer. "It’s up to him," Mrs. Carpenter said, "to arouse the interest of the fellows in each box." Selling the boxes can be a barrel of laughs said Mrs. Palmer. "We use to put up a sheet, cast light behind it, and people would take turns walking behind the sheet. The acutfoneer would then try to auction off the "shadow."

There are many vacancies between graves and lots in Quaker cemetery which might indicate-that some of the graves had been marked with perishable markers, especially if these were Quaker graves. The present tombstones were probably placed in later years by decendents of the early settlers. The last person to be buried in Quaker cemetery was Frank Downs whose death occurred in 1938. and who had requested that he be buried with his ancestors. For many years the cemetery was an abandoned wooded area with most of the graves s,vw„ with myrtle. luv There overgrown were a few febble efforts made down thry the years to have the brush cleaned out and the uu- dergrowth burned, but within a few years it was overgrown again. In the fall of 1969, about the time the Barry County Historical society became interested in making this little cemetery a historical site. Maple Gpove township officials attempted to get the Barry County Road commission to improve the road from Guy Road up to the cemetery. The response was negative, "as it was not necessary to the good of the township.” So the township board included "about $1,500" in the 1970 budget to be used to clear the cemetery, improve the rqad, plant grass and put a fence up. Several trees in the cemetery were cut out and sold to help finance putting up the fence, but in the felling process several markers were broken and or tipped over.

For local Peaches Don’t hold out for homegrown peaches this year, cautions a Michigan State University consumer marketing information agent. "Southern peaches have arrived in Michigan markets," reports Miss Ada Shinabarger." and prices are especially at­ tractive at many supermarkets." Since 80 percent of Michigan’s peach crop was a victim of the weather, peach lovers should probably act now. When selecting peaches, look for plump, smooth skinned fruit. The color underneath should be creamy white or yellow, blushed with red. Most southern varieties have much less blush than many of the Michigan varieties. Another way to beat the Michigan peach shortage is to buy nectarines, Miss Shinabarger suggests. The nectarine is smaller and sweeter than a peach, and can be used in any recipe that calls for peaches.

Under the new schedule, the minimum residential water and sewer bill for the combined service will be $11.46. an increase of $1 over the present rates. The new schedule provides for a straight 45-cent charge per 100 cubic feet of water used as a sewer tax. Under the current rates, the sewer charge has been Saduated. Biggest increase in e sewer charge will go to the industrial users. The toal increased revenue is expected to be about $100,000 a year, bringing the combined water and sewer revenue to about $368,000 to help meet the cost of operating the new plant. Under the new water schedule, the minimum charge of 1,000 cubic feet of water will be $6.90. It has been $5.20. The new ordinance was declared an emergency and given immediate effect, with the rates to go up Oct. 1. Councilmen table the request of Albert Builders to rezone about 30 acres <68 lots) owned by Thomas Taffee to permit the construction of multiple unit dwellings. Mayor Cedric Morey suggested the action to provide more time for further study of the proposal. Residents in that neighborhood have objected to the rezoning. Kendal Reahm of Reanm Motor Sales wrote the Council thanking the members for their action in having the old “Roller MiH“ and Winick buildings tom down to provide vitally needed parking in that area. Councilmen approved paying chairmen of the Aug. 8 election boards $30 and the other workers $25, and the chairman of the absentee board $1$ and the other members 8. Election workers also get $2 for attending the election school. tiesday. Aug. 17. sponsored by the State Department of Education.

Clean Engine Runs Cooler, Experts Say The average motorist rarely thinks about giving his car engine a thorough cleaning although it is a relatively simple chore. A clean engine not only looks better, it runs oooler without a (hick layer of grease and grime to prevent it from radiating heat, according to auto research ex­ perts. To prepare the engine for cleaning remove the air cleaner and cover the carburetor, distributor, coil and alternator or generator with plastic bags secured with rubber bands. Spray/ the entire engine and engine compartment with degreaser, a product that is available at most service stations and automotive supply stores. Hastings Man Takes Teaching Job in Kalamazoo Gary F. Hodgson, 31 of Hastings, has been hired as “head teacher” for Dawn­ treader, a Kalamazoo “alter­ native” high school. Hodgson, a native of Cadillac, has taught in Detroit suburban schools and served as a football coach, according to the news report. He holds a BA from Western Michigan and a Master's from Kent State. The post of head teacher is new at Dawntreader, which has completed one academic year. Does your house have bad breath? Allow the degreaser to emulsify the grease and grime for a few minutes; then hose down the engine and com­ partment with a high pressure stream of water. If the engine has heavy dirt accumulations, it may require a second treatment for a complete cleaning. Clean the carburetor, air cleaner, coil and distrubutor cap with spray solvent and wipe dry with a clean dloth. Cleaning the engine this way before selling or trading gives it a like new appearance and could add dollars to a car's value and help in making a better deal. A clean engine suggests a wellcared for car. Now You Can Simplify Your Building—with Pre-Buili ' Bad breath happens to houses. too. Pockets of stale, smelly air Bone-dry and draft y in winter.

Armchair Athlete is a perfect attitude to take from your source of information. Looking at it from hunting or fishing license buyers and tax payers, voice quoted in Aug. 9 edition-Moneys collected from license and excise taxes and where moneys are spent, two million dollars in license and forty eight million in taxes to maintain and improve State Lands. You talk about sufficient areas open to snowmobilers and others, not only are closed trails in the Barry county area marked with signs, but the so called baracades are good big trees cut and draped over existing trails, (20 years old or more) tree stumps cut for posts to block accessible fire trails. No snowmobile, motor cycle, or dune buggy has ever done this much damage! If the moneys were spent to maintain these trails, the snowmobilers and others would not look so bad in the eyes of D.N.R. As for bothering wild life, try chasing a deer thru these areas with any vehicle, that is if your partial to suicide. The local D.N.R. had better wake up to the fact that the off the road vehicles are here to stay! Ask the American Indian about the “Here to Stay Business.” Who’s area’s are they, who's paying for them and why can’t we use them! How many citations were given out last year? and how many were challenged and dropped! After all the Highway Depart­ ment doesn’t block off a road or street just because someone can’t obey the rules! Very, very few people that use these trails for recreation are not out to cause malicious damage, but to have good healthy family incerely yours, Gerald J. Riva Outdoor Trail-The Michigan State Waterways Commission meeting at Mackinac Island early this month authorized engineering studies for various community recreation areas, including Prairieville Township in Barry. Engineers will consider the design, cost and feasibility of constructing boat launching facilities on Upper Crooked Lake. The township has a small park on this 735-acre lake south of here which will be the base for the proposed facilities. Total cost of the study is $1,500 with the township and commission equally participating. Conservation Officer Brent Willison reports that the weather has had a great affect on local fishing, and fishing hasn’t been too good. Bass fishing has dropped off and “I don’t expect it to improve until Labor Day,” the Game Warden added. He did report that blue gills were biting on red worms at Crooked Lake, Lower Crooked and the southend of Fair Lake. Officer Willison said questions have been asked about the change in the Federal regulations on protecting crows.

Best Ball Golf Crown The Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce's first best ball tournament was a success and Manager Bob Johnson said Monday that plans are to con­ tinue the open tourney. Pau) Peterson is al) for it, as he teamed up with his brother, John, to come from behind Sunday to win the championship with a fine 132 36-hole total, one shot ahead of the teams of Len Bums and Kyle James and Hastings Country Club Professional Cal Wilson, and his son, Mike Paul has battled for many championships at the local country club, but major honors had always escaped him in the past. The Petersons came off the River Bend course Saturday three shots back of Bums and James who fired a blazing 62. While the tourney leaders were carding a 71 at HCC Sunday, the Petersons were touring the course in a fine 67. John, a former Michigan State University varsity golfer, sank the final putt, a tncky five-six footer above the hole on No. 18. for his par three and the 67. Paul had missed the same putt. Bums rimmed the cup with his putt nearly the width of the green, but the ball iust wouldn’t drop. James tried, but the ball slipped by and the crown and $70 first prize went to the Petersons. In the playoff for second place, the Wilsons won on the sudden death first hole to take the $50 second prize. Bums and James won $30. Awards in the other flights were $50, $30 and $20.

No Short-Cuts that cause undesirable flavor, color and texture. Choose fresh, high quality produce of a variety suited for cooking and canning, Miss Shinabarger suggests. Wash produce thoroughly and lift it out of the water. If the water is poured off, dirt particles may remain on the food, she explains. Pressure canning is the only recommended method for canning low-acid foods, advises Michigan State University consumer marketing specialist Ada Shinabarger. Such short-cut methods as ‘‘blanket,” “aspirin,” "cold water,” "vinegar-sugar-salt” and "canning powders” do not insure against spoilage, the specialist warns. Low-acid foods include all vegetables and the new low-acid tomatoes. The boiling water bath method may be used for fruits and pickled vegetables. Re-read your pressure cooker instruction manual before canning, the specialist advises. The booklet explains how to check whether the cooker is in working order.

Michigan, Hastings - Phone 945-2205 » UCTHE HASTINGS BANNER......... August Q. 1972 At the turn of the century, TB spread terror and death, Today, it can be cured, even prevented But people who have TB still suffer from social prejudice. At the University of Kentucky, psychologist John L. Tringo tested 455 people -including students and rehabilitation workers-to find the "social distance" they felt toward people with specific diseases and disabilities Out of 21 conditions. TB was among the least acceptable diseases. Along with mental retardation, alcoholism, and mental illness. The most ac­ ceptable diseases and conditions were ulcers, arthritis, asthma and diabetes. Some diseases, according to Dr. Tringo. may actually benefit from high frequency and therefore less shock value For example, the three major killers in America-heart disease, stroke, and cancerwere all in the top half of the list, among the more acceptable. In contrast, the incidence of TB has been steadily declining in the last decade*. Most prejudices stem from ignorance and fear. Having TB is no social disgrace. Anyone can get TB, just by breathing in live TB germs spread by someone rise’s coughs and sneezes. Once the disease is diagnosed, people can become noninfectious-that is, they no longer spread their germs to others-in a matter of days. . Sometimes people who have TB have symptoms. Coughing a lot. Feeling tired all the time. Spitting Mood. Losing weight. And sometimes there are no symptoms at all. Knowing more about what causes TB and how it can be prevented can help combat outmoded prejudice against those who have it.

They have the facts. �Schools Must Emphasize Skills as College Grads Face Job Shortages The importance of improving and expanding vocational or "skills” training in public schools has been the concern of members of the Hastings Board of Education, and the entire staff, as well as other area school boards. The Thornapple-Kellogg District has voted for annexation on July 1 to the Kent County Skills Center. The Hastings District has expanded its curriculum, and officials are also giving consideration to eventual annexation with a larger district, probablv Calhoun. The necessity'for training in skills was emphasized recently by U.S. Assistant Secretary of I^abor Michael Moskow who said job prospects for college graduates have deteriorated in recent years and there are in­ dications that this trend will continue through the 1970’s. Speaking before the New Jersey Association of College Administration Counselors, Moskow said: "Accordingly, we need to reassess the desirability of exerting strong pressures on high school students, irrespective of their interests and abilities, to enter college.” He noted that a decreasing demand for professionals, diminishing monetary return from degrees and a projected increase in service-producing industries will characterize the job market during the 1970’s. Calling for a different ap­ proach to education, Moskow said: “Career education is the keystone for change in our educational system.” Citing expected trends in supply and demand which will face college graduates, Moskow noted: ”we expect continued large increases in the numbers of college graduates. The net in­ crease in supply of new collegeeducated workers during the 1970’s is estimated to be 9.8 million.” "The projections,” Moskow said, "indicate a rough balance bet­ ween total supply and demand, with perhaps a small amount of excess supply.** But, the Assistant Secretary cautioned, these predictions are based on the assumption that the proportion of workers with college degrees remains the same as in 1*70 In each broad occupation group. "It will be necessary for the college graduates to enter a wider range of jobs than they did prior to 1970", Moskow added. The monetary return for at­ tending college may decline, Moskow noted. "If the earnings gap between graduates does narrow, people to whom college might have paid only a marginal return might find that it will not pay at all now." Referring to employment opportunities within particular industries and occupations, Moskowsaid, “the rough balance between the total supply of and demand for college graduates in the 1970’s masks some very favorable and some very un­ favorable trends." In general, Moskow noted, "the growth of jabs in the l*70*s Is expected to continue to be faster in the service-producing sector than in the goods-produclng industries." , Moskow listed population growth, increasing urbanization, rising incomes and living stan­ dards, coupled with demands for improved health and recreation services and better education, as the reason for the trend. Of the goods-producing in­ dustries, contract construction and manufacturing are expected to generate employment growth of about 40 percent and 13 per­ cent, respectively. However, employment in agriculture, and I I ! I ’ j I 1 ' 4 < • mining is expected to decline by 13 and 12 percent, he said. Moskow pointed out that President Nixon has announced a major program. Career Education, , to “alleviate unemployment or un­ deremployment of those leaving school and entering the job market for the first time.” The goal of this program, Moskow said, "is to assure that every young American will leave high school equipped to work in a modern occupation or to further his education."

Keeping Cool and Waistline Real Dilema Trying to keep your cool and your waistline can be a real dilemma, says a Michigan State University consumer marketing information agent. Some of those coolers like beer and soft drinks are as calorie laden as a piece of pie, warns Miss Ada Shinabarger. "You can't beat a tall glass of plain water for a calorie-free drink," she says. "Iced tea or iced coffee-if they’re left unsweetened-add no measurable calorics to your diet. But once you start teaspooning in the sugar, you're adding calories at the rate of about 15 calories per spoonful." , Powdered fruit-flavored drinks, so popular with the small fry during summer, also furnish calories with each sip. The sugar in the mixture is the main reason. So-called diet soft drinks can be villians too. Miss Shinabarger says. Some run as high as 96 calories per 12-ounce bottle. Regular soft drinks in 12-ounce bottles carry around 150 calories per bottle. NOTICE TO BIDDERS Building site for sale in Carlton Center, 132' X 165', approximately Vz acre.

Earl McKibbin Secretary �Delton School to Have Open Space Concept Architects from Da verman and Associates were present at the August Delton School Board meeting and presented preliminary sketches for the new high school following the topographical survey of the land on which the school will be built. The board is to decide the new school’s relationship to the present campus; Do members wish the school to face the other buildings or overlook the lake? Would they oppose a two-story structure as the survey of the land shows this to be the best alternative for the lay of the land? How do they wish the drive to the new school located? Should the architecta pursue further the open space classroom concept? Members approved a two-story structure-plans for which will be drawn up with the administrative unit on the lower level along with the gymnasium, auditorium, lockers, cafeteria and music department. The upper level would contain the classrooms planned around the open space media-center concept. The drive is to be kept completely separate from elementary buildings. The architects were advised to keep in mind the need for future ex­ pansion. In further business, bids were accepted with Sargeant Fuel receiving the low fuel oil bid at 1125; Gulf gas bid was accepted at low bid of 12.37; and the low milk bld by Roeloff of .066 for Mr pints in glass was accepted.

Save Up All Hardware Frames Double Doweled ‘Project Return’ Aimed At Area Resident The Lakewood Community Education Program urges area citizens to consider “Project Return" as a possible means of gaining additional education or even a high school diploma. "Project Return" is an in­ tensive effort aimed at helping adults who want more schooling. Classes include basic education for those who want to polish such simple skills as reading, writing and arithmetic; programs which lead to a high school diploma or skill training in certain areas. Last year 300 persons par­ ticipated in the area adult high school program and 100 adults received diplomas. Information about the programs may be obtained by contacting W. Steve Storey at the Community Education Office at the high school, 374-8510. Today the need for further education is most important because automation and machines are replacing unskilled manpower at a rapid rate and only with additional learning can we keen up. Ln I MOO. machines only did 4 percent of man's work for him, but today machines do about 95 percent of the work. Any adult, who thinks a little more schooling-of any kind­ might be helpful, owes it to himself to make ihquiries during "Project Return." Adult high school classes start the week of September 18. Registration will be held from September 5-15 from 9 a.m. 9 p.m. on Mondays through Thursdays and 9 a.m.-5 p.m. on Fridays. There is no charge for persons taking courses towards their diploma.

Aug. 29, were to act on the 1972-73 budget totaling $3.500,949.41, an increase of about nine percent over the 1971-72 cost of operating the Hastings schools. The budget anticipates a balance of IW.SH.32 at the end of the 1972-73 fiscal year, according to Supt. of Schools Richard J. (> tie nther. While the new budget represents an increase of nine percent, the 36-mill tax levy to be collected next December represents a reduction of .51 mills because of the increase in property valuations from $61,077,563 to $65,838,811, Supt. Guenther points out. In addition, the levy for the school debt drops one-half mil) to 6.5 mills per $1,000 valuation because of the higher tax base. Supt. Guenther points out that under the State formula, the 1972­ 73 State deductible millage is 20 mills, leaving 6.51 net mills to spread on the entire property valuation. The 6.51 would net the school budget $30,919.40 spread on the $4,761,248 valuation in­ crease. The decrease of Ji mills spread on the entire valuation lowers the collection $32,919.40. leaving a reduction in the budget of $1.92l.«2-more than the equalization hike brings in. Budget revenues include a $25,980.13 balance at the end of the- last school fiscal year, $1,677,572.82 in local taxes, $1,550,528.78 in State aid. $127,554 in special State. Federal and County aid, $122,928 from tran­ sportation, $16,500 from athletics $30,450 in miscellaneous income, $10,500 from driver training and $37,950 from accounts receivable. Accounts receivable include $26,000 from the house built by the Building Trades class, $1,500 from house rent, $1,100 from school lease and $1,850 from trailer camp fees. The expenditures-including a 4.6 average salary and fringe benefit increase for the entire regular staff-total $3,500,949.41. That includes $2,437,955 for instruction. Teachers’ salaries total $2,048,644, principals' salaries $136,712 and dercial pay $58,679 Other expenses include $7,825 for principals' offices. $57,778 for general instruction, $26,800 for books. $47,945 for miscellaneous instruction, $34,347 for the library and $19,225 for driver training. Other administration costs are $78,905, including $58,405 for clerical salaries and $20,500 for office expense. Transportation salaries are estimated at $134,354 and other busing expense totals $41,000. Health service costs $15,418, athletics $18,500 and community service $1,800. Fixed insurance charges are $161,361. Operational costs of $391,000 include $248,000 for custodians' salaries. $17,500 for custodians' expense. $49,500 for fuel. $59,500 for electricity, $8,000 for water and $8,500 for telephones. In addition, maintenance charges total $132,704. That in­ cludes $99,769 for buildings and grounds, $27,435 for instructional equipment and $5,500 for nonijistructional equipment. Perry Francisco has the new position of groundskeeper. Scheduled capital outlay in­ cludes $54,798.41 for buses, with eight buses being added to the lease-payment program. Capital outlay for equipment is expected to be $6,654, and $2,500 each to go in “escrow" for music and athletics anticipating new equipment purchases. New and expanded services included in the budget are ad­ ditional funds for the Kalamazoo Regional Enrichment Center, which will take about $8,900. up from last year’s $4,006. Also new are classroom programs for emotionally disturbed students, junior high remedial reading, one additional junior high counselor, the girls’ formal athletic program, clerical services for health education and the school nurse and substantial increase for instructional materials and equipment.

Penney Company reported a 16.9 percent gain in net income for the second quarter The department store and catalog chain had net earnings of $28.9 million for the 13 weeks ended July 29 against $24.7 million for the same 1971 period This amounts to primary net income per share of 51 cents compared with 16 cents last year, thi a fully diluted basis, earnings for the period were also 51 cents attains! 15 cents in 1971. JCPenney’s sales for the second quarter rose 14.4 per cent to a record $1,227.1 million from $1,072.9 million. Nel income for the 26 weeks ended July 29 was up 17.8 per cent to $48.7 million this year from $41.3 million for the comparable 1971 period. Per share earnings for the half amounted to 86 cents against 77 cents a year ago. Fully diluted earnings for the period were also 86 cents, up from 76 cents in 1971. As previously reported, JC­ Penney’s sales for the 26 weeks were 14.3 per cent ahead of last year. Volume for the half reached a record $2,333.2 million compared with $2,040.5 million last year. Chairman William M. Batten and President Jack B. Jackson attributed the second quarter earnings gain chiefly to the strong overall sales per­ formance. Batten and Jackson noted that, while sales gams for the first two quarters were approximately the same on a percentage basis, the Company did not achieve the same degree of leverage from the second quarter increase as it did from the first quarter gain. They attributed this to pressure on profit margins resulting from the Administration’s Phase II program which has frozen retailers’ mark-ups during a period of gradually rising operating costs. The Penney officers said that inflation played an “in­ significant’’ role in the Com­ pany’s sales gains during the second quarter and the first half. While prices in some categories have gone up, these increases have been offset by declines in other categories. Current price levels on the average represent little change from a year ago, according to Messrs. Batten and Jackson. During the first half, the Company opened 25 new stores, enlarging store physical plant by 4.2 million gross square feet or 2.4 million square feet of net selling space. During the 1971 period, store plant increased by 2.2 million gross square feet or 1.5 Trillion square feet of net selling space through openings of 17 new stores. Square footage for both years takes into account store closings. THE HASTINGS BANNER........ August 39. 1972 �EDITORIAL --------------------- bv R. M. C.-------- ?—i--- — Frank Sibley, an unemployed former pilot, pedaled across the Reno, Nev., airport with a rifle in plain view across the handlebars, then forced the crew of United Airlines 727 to fly him to Vancouver. British Columbia and Seattle, the while demanding $2 million in small bills. 15 pounds of gold. guns, pep pills and other assorted items. Although he was shot and captured at Seattle more than 15 hours after the bizarre episode began, the entire adventure points to an appalling weakness in airport safety measures and unconcern for same. In spite of the fact that all the booty was recovered, the affair represented a net loss of thousands of dollars to the government and the airline and certainly did nothing to increase confidence in safety precautions being taken by the airlines to guard against hijacking. Of all nations in the world, the United States seems to be the softest touch for this kind of pirating. We can understand the difficulty of sifting the thousands of passengers who emplane daily. However, an incredible degree of laxness is indicated when a potential hijacker can bicycle across an airport with a rifle carried in plain view on the handlebars and take command of a waiting skyliner. Such a situation can result only from massive unconcern on the part of airport employees or lack of proper directives from management concerning precautions to be taken and procedures to be followed if a suspicious character is spotted. It may be that Florida Senator Edward Gurney was a bit carried away bv his own enthusiasm when he stated at the Republican National Convention: "All of us here are 1,000 percent sure that President Nixon will be re-elected by one of the greatest landslides in American political history.” That is a dangerous frame of mind in which to begin an active presidential campaign. Self confidence and belief in one’s party and candidates are a part of the American system. However, over­ conf idence-and especially super-confidence-are potentially dangerous luxuries. Republicans instead of celebrating in advance, should recall to mind the trouncing that Harry S. Truman gave Thomas E. Dewey, despite the fact that all the indicators and polls pointed to an edsy G.O.P. victory. Republicans were so impressed by that fact that they conducted a lack-luster campaign while Truman came in swinging at everything in sight. Truman, of.eourse, was much more of a tried and tested figure that McGovern and the Democratic party at the time was more dejected than split into factions as it is today. However, as election day nears, the Democrats have often exhibited a genius for finding some point of agreement and holding together in an uneasy alliance This could happen again. Four years ago. advance indications were that Hubert Hum­ phrey. the Democratic presidential candidate, would lose by close to landslide proportions. However, opinion switched during the final weeks and the Republicans, although victorious, won by only a slender margin in the popular vote. No one can predict with accuracy at this time, what the November vote will show Perhaps the Republicans will win by a landslide. However, the only sensible for the G.O.P. is to run scared from now on in-and we mean really scared!

The questions covered material presented in the text and in the films. Not all questions were directly related to the driving task itself, yet we feel they are equally important. These indirect questions dealt with insurance, how the car runs, maintenance of lhe car, how to buy a good used car. economy, and especially attitudes of the driver The behind-the-wheel phase consisted of 6 hours of instruction and 12 hour* of observation time If the instructor felt a couple of ad­ ditional hour* were needed it was generally given. If the student was not ready for driving at this time or was unable to safely handle the car he was failed and will be allowed to take the behind-the-wheel phase over at a later date. Due to various reasons not everyone is able to drive safely. We attempt to give the students an opportunity to do every type of driving possible. They drive on city residential streets, country class “A” roads, state rural and city highways, city business district streets, villages, expressways, divided four-lane hi£iways and large cities. They are taught proper parking procedures, how to enter and exit expressways, how to drive in large parking mall areas and given safe driving practices in all situations If the instructor IS......... THE HASTINGS BANNER.......... Aagast ». 1972 does not fed that the student is capsble of handling a car without a dual control braking system he will not be recommended for a certificate.lt may just take extra practice time or the person may never be able to drive. The school system cannot afford at this time to give a particular student all the extra driving time that he may need. It is estimated that it takes about 70 to 75 dollars to meet the minimum requirements of one student without giving him extra driving time. Because the student* must also pass a behind-the-wheel test fo^he Slate Licensing Department, we may recommend a 60 or 90 day delay in getting their license so they may practice with their parents prior to that time. Parents should take some responsibility, at this point, to see that their son or daughter gets that needed, supervised practice in the family car. The teachers hired to instruct driver education this summer were: Mr /fete DeDecker, Mr. Jerry Eckman, Mr. A) Francik, Mr. Dave Kietxmann, Mr. Tom Maurer, Mr. Jim Oliver, Mr. Dennis Storrs, Mr. Ernie Strong, Mr Tony Turkal and Mr. Dave Wilcox Mr Gerald Pattok also instructed on a substitute basis Among the most important qualifications to teach driver education, a person must hold a Michigan teachers certificate, a valid Michigan drivers license and have taken 8 seihester hours of driver education courses on the University level. These semester hour qualifications have been recently increased to thia standard because of the im­ portance that the driver education program has on the young (friver. Being on the road as many hours as we are during this driver education instruction period we see varied reactions of other drivers in relation to the driver ed can. Most driven react favorable to our youn driven, but you'd be amazed at the discourteous acts we ob­ serve. Often extra care is taken in their relationship with our can. This sometimes does not give the student a realistic situation, but we’d rather have this than some of the unsafe maneuvers we see. So please, when you see a young driver in a car marked with a “Student Driver" sign, have patience and use good judgment. Remember in just a few short hours, be will be on the road sharing it with you. He is taught to show courtesy toward you. Will you reciprocate? 1. School districts may not make charges for any required or elective courses as for: a. General or registration fees. b. Course fees or materials ticket charges. c. Textbooks (regular and supplemental) and supplies (pencil, paper & crayons). 2. School districts may charge for damages or loss of school property when such property has been provided to students without charge. 3. School districts may require students to place a deposit to cover damages to text books, non-consurnablr materials and supplies provided free by the school district, for those economically able to pay as determined by school authorities, after consulting with the parents. These deposits must be reasonable and refundable. The Hastings Area Public Schools have decided for the school year 72-73 to not require students to place a deposit on books, non­ consumable materials and supplies provided by the school district. Care of textbooks and equipment is the responsibility of each student and no charge will be made for normal wear. If books or equipment are misused, students will be charged for damages. �BUTBICTB BISTIICT 1 BISTIICT 10 MRS GORDON RUHR MRS. KRHNRTH RARHS HUM* HWIH MIMI* JONES WSASS1 H* Ml, MRS.

Sleeby Southern Corn Blight No Threat Two years after the worst farm crop disease epidemic in history, southern corn leaf blight is of virtually no concern to anyone. It is almost as if the disease never existed. Vot one esse of southern leaf Night has been identified In a V.S. com field so far this year. Very likely, none will be. ’ In stark contrast to the acres and acres of brown and fallen stalks of August 1970. com in August 1972 is green and healthy. The concern isn’t over crop loss but over the possibility of a national com surplus. It’s a rather miraculous recovery. But I don’t think manv Barry 4H‘ERS Earn Honors at State Dairy Show Barry County's 4H dairy judging junior and senior teams each placed third in the State 4H Dairy Show held at Michigan State University Aug. 22-24. and 4H-Youth Agent William Kirk­ patrick praised all of the local contestants for doing "very well.’' Itndney Pennock of Nashville coached both dairy judging teams.

I think it was more or less expected that the problem would be overcome in quick order. It was, and it required a major change in the way hybrid com seed are produced. \ source of plant male-sterility used almost universally by plant breeders before 1970 carried with it a high susceptibility to race T •»f the southern corn leaf blightthe culprit in the 1970 epidemic. Seed companies immediately began to discard the breeding material that caused corn hybrids to be susceptible to this race of the blight. It required a return to hand-detasseling the seed-bearing stalks in hybrid seed fields. This meant, among other things, that cdfct to the seed breeder and to the farmer in­ creased. Emergency measures in 1970, including growing winter crops of nonsuscefkible seed in tropical countries, lessened slightly the threat of blight to the 1971 crop. These measures, plus less favorable blight weather than existed in 1970, resulted in sharply reduced damage and a bumper corn crop. This year, the changeover to blight-tolerant corn has been completed. No T-cytoplasm seedthe susceptible type-were sold for the current crop. As a result, there is no blight. However, disease specialists in 'his country and others are •nonitoring crops for any possible outbreak. This monitoring so far has resulted in early identification and worldwide communication of cases of blight in three South American countries and in Australia. Farmers can be assured that southern blight represents no threat to Michigan or any U.S. com at this time. Once in a while this year we have noticed a fair amount of northern com leaf blight, so do •mt confuse this disease with southern corn leaf blight.

How do we know the Bible, "tells it like it is?” A. That’s a "vital” question. There are two lines of evidence, intetnal and external. We shall consider the internal evidence now and the external next time In hundreds of passages the Bible deciares and assumes that it is the Word of God. If it is then as it claims the Word of the one and only true God. Then it is true because God is the truth. He made it and "tells it like it is." Who else would know? For in­ stance consider man, God made him and knows all their is to know about us. What makes us happy or sad; what will heal our broken body or mind; where we should spend eternity; and how to live victoriously. He ought to know. He made us Now for the evidence within the Bible itself. The Bible precedes al) else by explaining the beginning this way. "In the beginning God. . .” There is a simply profound statement in Romans 10:17, "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God." Listen carefully. So then “Hearing" comes by the Word of God. Did you get that? Many, many times God's Word tells us, "I would not have you to be ignorant." Therefore “Study to shew Church Growth-Sunday.

Read Psalms 19:7-11 it starts out like this. "The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple." Better yet read all of Psalm 19.

HERALD E. CLASSIC Members of the Woodland communityon Friday. Aug 25. surprised Herald E. Classic in recognition of his 50th an­ niversary as a registered pharmacist. Ella Katner of the Cinder-Ella Beauty Salon presented him a rake, and he received a card signed by the business people of <hr Woodland community. Herald received his certificate of pharmacy from Ferris In­ stitute in Big Rapids on Aug 25. 1922. and he is now a member jof the Ferris Golden Eagles. Reserved his apprenticeship at the drug store in Lake Odessa owned and operated by Frank Smelker. He purchased the corner drug store in Woodland from Mr. Hilbert in 1932. He remained in l^ake Odessa and his brother-in­ law and mother-in-law operated the Woodland Store. In December. 1934. he moved to Woodland with his family. Later he bought his present building from Mr. Baker. That building was being used as a post office He also bought the building next door from Mr. Wind and rented it for the post office He used the two buildings for his drug store until remodeling in 1954. The first building is now a beauty salon, and the old post office is used for storage In 1954 he purchased the drug '.(nee in Clarksville and operated •I until 1**2. While he was there •is family operated the Woodland More. He married Lucy Austin on Dec. 6, 1925. They have four children. Marvin, Norma Jean. Betty and Shirley. 11 grand­ children and one great grand­ child. His children and wife have all worked at the store as well as three grandchildren. Mrs. Classic is unable to work now because of her health. He has also employed other relatives, ladies and high school girls. Being in business in Woodland for 40 years, he has made many friends. He is well known for his low prices. There are few places where you can buy a five cent coke or ice cream cone. His familiar phrase is “I would rather hear my family complain for not charging enough then my customers complain for charging too much.” His store is one at the very few that still has a soda bar. His store has always been the meeting place for parents to meet their children after school activities. Some have taken advantage of the crowds and "helped themselves” to what they wanted. Some have been caught and made to answer but others are still carrying the burden. Besides his duties at the store he has served as Village Clerk for 3M years. He was president of the Woodland Lions Club one year and is now serving as secretary, a position he has held for several years. He is a charter member of the club that will celebrate its silver anniversary this year. He also served on the Woodland School Board for several years He has been church treasurer for the Lakewood United Methodist Church since it was formed. Prior to that he was treasurer at the Lake Odessa E.U.B. Church. A busy, grand guy! OPEN MONDAY, WEDNESDAY, FRIDAY NIGHTS 'TIE 8:00 P.M.-SAT. 'Ill 4:00 REAHM - SoIaA*- D/IC.

That was my initial impression of Hastings. It’s probably not an original one. but not much is these days. As a newcomer to this city, I was asked to convey my first impressions of this community, and so with typewriter at hand, permit me to continue. The first time I arrived in Hastings was a couple weeks ago to interview for a position on The Banner. I strolled around the town, and thought it was most attractive and clean. Several of the businesses appear to be new, or have been remodeled. Either way it makes for a good looking main street. On my second visit a couple days later I had some time to waste so I dropped into the library to browse through the magazines. It is as nice a library as I have ever seen and that air­ conditioning sure felt good. With those comfortable chairs in the reading area, a guy could catch W winks easily. • I don’t groove on all the four way stops in this town, nor do I .virn fn nlnu Hrwlon 'om with a Ivarrel in the middle of the street. It’s much easier to install a couple more stop lights or else stop signs on side streets entering the heavier traveled ones. It's possible, but improbable. that you could get a few dented fenders if four cars arrive simultaneously, and each decides it has the right-of-way. Whether you be a newcomer, long time resident or visitor those trash barrels, which the girl’s ecological group painted, should catch your eye. and perhaps be pul to bet ter’use than before I like the pace of the small town like Hastings. As in most com­ munities. the citizens I have met here are most cordial and helpful, and hope Io make acquaintances with more. There is the old adage about Nashville Seeks Funds for Waste Treatment System * village which are developed to a certain extent, but not presently The Nashville Village Council has asked funds from the Water Resources Commission and Environmental Protection Agency to assist in the development of a lagoon­ irrigation waste water treatment system. In addition they have asked the Farm Home Administration for a loan to pay the local share. The project consists of a treatment facility and extensions to the sanitary sewer system to provide service to areas in the Officials were advised by the Water Resources Commission to include an application for tbe collection system with that of tbe treatment system. At the present, only trunk sewers are eligible. However, one form of the pollution control bill includes provision for funds for collection systems. The application will enable the village to received consideration for grants if and when they are available. The type of treatment proposed for the village is a series of stabilization lagoons, followed by irrigation of the effluent. Treatment in stabilization lagoons is a continuous process by which the organic compounds are broken up into carbon dioxide and nutrients. The system utilizes natural methods, refined by careful design and proper maintenance. NEW BANNER ADMAN Still Waiting A good turn is not always returned.

Burchett Road, Plainwell; lj»rry D. Smith. IU Delton. 10520 En/ian Road; Charles llasman, R1 Hastings. 2805 McKeown Road, and Clarence Turner. R3 Delton, illHO Shelp Lake. .. The complaint states that the Bakers have built a residence which is a walk-in basement upon which has been placed a mobile Iximc, surrounded by woods and hills and not visible from other residences. They have been charged in District Court with placing a mobile home on property zoned agricultural district. The Franciscos, after a fire had destroyed the interior of their home, placed a mobile hdme on the property to live in while repairing the permanent residence, according to the complaint. They have been charged in District Court with placing a mobile home on property zoned agricultural, and moving a mobile home on the land without a permit. Larry Smith lives in a mobile home from which the wheels have been removed. It is in a valley surrounded by woods and farm fields. He is charged in District Court with placing a mobile home on property zoned Recreation I District, the com­ plaint states. Charles Hasman alleges he doesn't own a residence, but that he is occupying a mobile home in Hastings Township owned by his mother. He is charged with moving a mobile home upon the land without a permit. Turner said he built a home consisting of two modular homes on a foundation, and is charged in District Court with placing a' mobile home on property zoned Recreation I and with failure to have a permit. The complaint charge* that, although the ordinance has provision* for mobile homes, ihere is so little land zoned in that classification that the effect is to prohibit individual mobile homes in all "but and infitesimal portion of the county." The plaintiffs claim they will suffer irreparable harm unless further prosecution of district court complaints is enjoined. The complaint also says that notwithstanding the prohibitions in the ordinance, there are hundreds. "and perhaps thousands, of violations of that provision" of the ordinance. The plaints claim, except Woods, that they are the victims of discriminatory enforcement practices. They ask a restraining order against further court action against them, that an order be issued restraining any further prosecution under the zoning ordinance as it refers to the use of individual mobile homes in areas not zoned therefor until the final disposition of this suit; that the Court determine the ordinance is unconstitutional and void insofar as it prohibits the use of mobile homes in areas where single (Continued on <> SEPTEMBER SAVINGS!! 15% OFF Sale? 50 x 72’ Reg. 8.99.

Back To School Now. when you arc buying l>ack-to-Nchool shoes for your youngsters, take them to a reliable shoe fitter. Happy feet can make a world of difference in ynur child’s altitude, work habits, and achievements. Can you imagine a child with cramped and aching feet really doing liis best at school? One of the worst mistakes is for parents to expect the school shoes of May to fit the same child in September. Children’s feet grow more during the summer months lhan any other season of the year. Be sure to have a con­ scientious shoe fitter fit your children’s shoes before you send them off to school. It can avoid a lifetime of foot ailments and corrective ex­ penses.

Texas, and two of their five children were in Hastings from Sunday, Aug. 27, until Friday, Sept. 1, when they left for Detroit, then flew to New York and on to London and then to Nairobi, the largest city in Kenya on the African continent. Here they visited his parents the Roy DeHavens, and her folks, the Harry Scobeys. Dr. DeHaven. 39. left his busy medical practice al Tyler to spend the next two months running a missionary eye clinic in Kenya. At Nairobi the DeHavens were to take the train some 300 miles to the coastal seaport city of Mombasa, with is quarter million population jammed onto the three-by-four mile peninsula jutting into the Indian Ocean near the Equator. The DeHavens took their two youngest, Jim. 7, and Ann, 10, along with them on their venture as Christian missionaries. Their three older children, all high school students, remained in Tyler with friends. Dr. Dellaven will operate the non-denominational Ughlhouse for ('heist Eye Centre in the absence of the eye clinic's founder. Dr. William K. Ghrixf who is on a four-month furlough in the U.S. Dr. DeHaven explained how he came to the decision to accept the challenging call to serve in the mission field. “About three and a half years ago Dr. Ghrist felt led to go into the missionary field. He was at the time a successful, practicing opthamologist in Glendale, Calif “Although he was doing valuable work in his home town, he felt he could do more-as a Christian missionary-working somewhere in Africa instead. "He was supported in his mission effort by his local Presbyterian Church in Glen­ dale, -and by outside con­ tributions from persons like myself who were interested in his project. Dr. DeHaven said. Dr. Ghrist chose to sei up his mission clinic in the many cultured city of Mombasa-its imputation made up of Arab, Indians and black natives from Kenya's Interior. There were few Christian churches there. Strongest religion in Mombasa is Moslim. His No. 1 objective was lo serve as an opthamologist. preaching his Christian message whenever the opportunity presented itself. The clinic is located in a large four-bedroom house which Dr Ghrist first leased and later purchased from an Arab with several wives. Il runs on a first come, first served basis, ac­ cording to Dr DeHaven. Patients arrive early in the morning lo occupy the 20 chairs in lhe wailing room. Once the chairs are taken, others must wait until the afternoon or the next day lo be seen by the doctor. The patients have many problems. Some come for routine eye examinations and simply need glasses. Most, however, come with serious optic illnesses, losing their sight, sometime requiring surgery or other medical care. Dr DeHaven said that many have cataracts. Many have trichoma, a viral infection causing scarring to the eyes and eyelids—a very common cause of blindness in the Mid-East, although uncommon in the U.S. Others come with glaucoma, an ailment caused by excessive pressure inside the eye itself. With every eye examination there is a period of dilation. As the patient sits with virtually nothing to do the doctor has an opportunity to sit down with him and share his Christian witness Dr. DeHaven said he met Dr. Ghrist "quite by accident" in Chicago as he was getting on an elevator while attending an opthamology conference there. “I recognized him from MIDDLEVILLE FIRST BAPTIST ’ '.Mi N Middleville on M J7 Jerry L Fotter.

"That was about a year and a half ago." recalled Dr. Delia ven. Continuing his story, Dr. DeHaven said*he and several other opthamologists around the nation, received a letter ex­ plaining that he planned a four month furlough, from July through October "He said that he was looking for a Christian opthamologist who would be willing to keep the work going while he was away," lhe Tyler opthamologist said. Dr. Dellrven decided that he would accept lhe challenge. Another opthamologist—Dr. Harley Quint of La Jolla, Calif.— also volunteered to serve in the Mombasa mission. He has been there since July and will return to his private practice once Dr. DeHaven ana his family arrive early in September for their two month missionary tour. "Besides working with lhe many patients in the clinic, I will make several flights into the bush country of Kenya with other medical missionaries," he said. Dr. DeHaven and his wife, Lou Ann. are members of the Fifth Street Presbyterian Church at Tyler. He is a 1950 graduate of Benton Harbor and a 1957 graduate of the University of Michigan Medical School. Lou Ann graduated from HHS in 1950. Asked what he will use as his basic Christian message to those whom he witnesses, Dr. DeHaven said he would try to explain the "four spiritual taws.” He explained. "God loves you, and has a wonderful plan for your life. Man is sinful and separated from God, thus he cannot know and experience God's love and plan for his life. Continuing, Dr. DeHaven said, "Jesus Christ is God’s only provision for man's sin. Through Him you can know and ex­ perience God’s love and plan for your life. "We must individually receive Jesus Christ as savior and Lord. Then we can know and ex­ perience God's love and plan for our lives. The Tyler physician added. "I really believe that the Bible is the Word of God and that it is to be followed. "Certainly each of us can be witnesses to others right here in our own community, but this missionary experience will give to me the opportunity to go out as a full-time evangelist and tell the story of Christ beyond my community. I think this will be exciting," he said. Sept IB-All Ladies of Church invited to spend the day al the church from t a.m. J JO p m.

IW �Elks Golftrs Play Special Tournament Members of the Elks poll League ended the season with a special event of teams playing alternate ball. by Buzz Youngs A new law went into effect in Michigan Friday, making it illegal to ahine deer-with or without weapon, in poaaesaion-between midnight and sunrise from Sept. 1 through December. At flrat glance lhe law seems unreal, but on reflection, It undoutedly is good, although we’ve always enjoyed seeing the whitetails feeding in the night. We still can. but only up until midnight. The restriction is designed to clamp down on deer poaching during this period of the year Department of Natural Resources people estimate that illegal after-dark forays drain 20.000 to 30.000 deer from Michigan's deer herd each year. Those figures are hard to believe. Besides attempting to eliminate sneak attacks on deer after midnight, the new rule should provide more peace of mind for rural residents who have complained about being kept up "all hours of the nightR by the roving activities of deer shiners with their searching spotlights. The new law plugs another loophole on poaching by making it prima facie evidence of a deer< iirajing violalion lo possess a how or firearm while using an artificial light between the hours •»f midnight and sunrise throughout lhe year. That "prima facie" stamp of guilt covers single violators plus Marine Safety-Deputy Maynard those operating in groups of two or more -even though they may Sutton and Sgt.

Currently. John F. Dilworth is the Hastings social worker and is available on an appointment basis, on Fridays of each week His office is located al 14C. E. Slate Street. Previous workers, who were well acquainted with lhe community were Dena Lewis and Mrs. Virginia Hoelscher During the past 10 years several Hastings residents have served on lhe Board of Directors of Family and Children’s Ser­ vice: Mrs. Richard Cook, Mrs. Richard Shuster, Rev. William Helrigel and. currently, Mrs. Richard Fluke. Marriage Counseling has been a very vital service for Hastings families. Professional counseling can frequently help in resolving those disruptive forces which un­ dermine the foundations of a marriage. Pre-Marital Coun­ seling is often recommended by the Barry County Probate Court prior to approval of a special marriage license for under legalage marriages. Problem pregnancy counseling is provided through the Battle Creek office. As is true with all lhe services, absolute confidence of information is respected. Mrs. Florence Campbell and Mrs. Jane Allen serve as special consultants in this area of ser­ vice. Family and Children’s Service also provides pre-adoptive foster care for infants and also serves as the primary adoption agency in Harry County. Many families seeking adoption have come to the agency and have received the highly skilled services from the adoption staff. This agency, which serves Barry and Calhoun Counties exclusively, is one of fifteen branches of Child and Family Services of Michigan, formerly known as lhe Michigan Children's Aid Society. It is a nontax supported, private agency dependent on support from local communities through Iheir United Fund Campaigns. Multiple Sclerosis Launches Campaign The Michigan Chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society has opened a month-long educational campaign to acquaint residents of this area with the tragic consequences that can so often accompany multiple sclerosis, a disease of the central nervous system. Dr. A.B. Schury. chairman of the campaign, said lhe program tn educate the public about MS would continue throughout September. Dr. Schury pointed out that MS and other closely related neurological disorders afflict an estimated 500.000 Americans, yet few people know much about it. 'The more people who know more about it, he said, ‘and the more people we can involve in lhe fight against it. the sooner we can defeat it.” “Basically,” Dr. Schury said, "Multiple sclerosis attacks the substance which sheathes nerve libers. causing nerve impulses controlling movement, vision, speech and balance to be distorted or even completely blocked.’’ He said it can be a progressive disease, often leading to total disability, but noted that most MS patients continue to lead active, vital lives ___ .___ BIRTHS AT PENNOCK Il'S A Oirt Mr and Mrs Carroll Lamie. 410 N.

M. C.-------------------------With school taxes a real concern for people every wherein the United States, it is interesting to note that in the Hastings Area School District, the acutal spending has. over the past 13 years, averaged seven percent under the mills authorized Although this difference may seem on the modest side, it does indicate that those responsible for school operations here made a consistent and obviously successful effort to "make do" with resources available. School administrators of course, deserves great credit for this record, since they would have to shoulder the blame if results had been otherwise The good record here is also a reflection on the spirit of co­ operation that has been evident in every department of the school system Hothead factions, if they do exist, have not had sufficient influence to cause disruptions in school programs nor broken the obviously good line of communication that exists between the facultv, the service department and the administration. In all this. Hastings has been fortunate and one can only hope and pray that these conditions will continue into the future We do not believe that faculty members with even a modicum of professional spirit relish using the refusal of instructional service to students as a bargaining point. A "walk out" of this sort inevitably produces a situation where the entire community suffers. For­ tunately, nothing of the sort has ever happened here and let us hope it never does “Violent. Sick Minds" The assassination of nine Israeli hostages, captured in their quarters at Olympic Village outside of Munich, Germany, by a band of Arab terrorists has shocked the world and cast a pal) of gloom oVer the games Shocking, too, is the fact that Arab newspapers in Egypt and Beirut defended the murderous guerrilla action while govern­ ment radio stations in Iraq and Syria and nationalist newspapers in Lebanon without directly defending the guerrillas placed the blame on the Germans and accused them of "treachery." King Hussein of Jordan, who has battled guerilla factions in his own small nation Are through wi{h the first outright condemnation from the Arab worm when he termed the Munich slaughter as. "An abhorrent crime perpetuated by sick minds who do not belong to humanity." The Munich tragedy also focuses attention on the difficulty/rf preparing adequate defensive measures to protect against the un­ predictable and senseless forays of groups such as the Arab "Black September" who have nothing but violence and bloodshed to offer the world. Such minds are indeec'sick” if they feel that murderous raids such as the one directed against Israeli athletes at Olympic Village will arouse world support and sympathy for their political aspirations. It should not be forgotten that President John F Kennedy and his brother. Robert, were slain by gunmen despite elaborate and ex­ tensive police protection. Gov George Wallace was severelywounded in an assassination attempt despite carefully planned measures taken for his protection It may be comforting to assume that extremists such as "Black September" do not represent the Arab world as a whole and that is probably true. Yet the fact remains that they are receiving financial support as well as armaments from groups who support their mur­ derous tactics. Money is no problem for mem and they apparently have access to adequate supplies of guns and ammunition. Those Arabnations that condone guerrilla tactics or who make no effort to curb their actions must share responsibility for the tragic results at Olympic Village. ’ As things now stand, it must be recognized that what happened at Olympic Village could be duplicated anywhere else in the world-even right here in our own United States Although the fanatics are com­ paratively few in number, their potential for destruction is great. No concessions made to them will curb their murderous actions but would probably be interpreted as weakness and thus give rise to even / more extreme demands The answer to guerrilla attacks is not yet evident except that7 absolute firmness in dealing with them will be more merciful than otherwise A group that will perpetrate an Olympic Village massacre is certainly in no mood to listen to reason or be guided by humane considerations. "The Game Must Go On" Probably Avery Brundage. Olympic chief, should have resigned at least a decade ago. However, he is absolutely right when he says: "We sannot allow a handful of terrorists to destroy the good will in the Olympic movement. The games must go on." To that we say. "Amen.” Even though the games arouse frictions as well as friendships, the Olympics do represent an international activity that so far has been kept surprisingly free of international political tensions. It should continue in that pattern. Officials should take decisive steps to neutralize the tvpe of political and racial pressures that surfaced in the games at Munich Probably no athlete in Olympic history had to face a greater degree of racial discrimination in stride than did the immortal Jesse Owens But his conduct and competitive spirit were such that he won admiration for himself and a greater degree of acceptance for his people- remember. that was back tn an era when discrimination was reaflv discrimination. Today, Owens is a respected personage >n German athletic circles and a legendary figure in the Olympics. "The games." as Brundage said, "must go on.” “Salute To A Real Printer” An editorial salute to the memory of Ernest F (Red) Wilkins who. at the time of his death had been a part of The Banner organization for more than half a century. He began as a "printers devil" at 15 years of age and except for duty with the armed forces during World War II. worked here continuously. "Red" was a real, dyed-in-the-wool. printer of the old school who was competent in every department. He could.mark up a form, set type from the case (fast becoming a lost art), lock-up forms, run a press, cast stereotypes, cut stock and do other bindery operations, as well In the years immediately following World War II when com­ petent help was almost impossible to secure, it was invaluable to have the service of a craftsman like "Red" who would fill in wherever needed to keep things moving on schedule. "Red did not have an easy time of it during the last few months of his life. Yet, during his frequent visits to those of us here at the office, he never seemed dejected or in low spirits. But it was evident that only a tremendous will to live kept him $oing. "Red" will be a long remembered by his associates here and all of us at Tbe Banner extend our sincere sympathy to his family and circle of intimate friends.

To the Editor: For the better part of 1972, we have heard about and read of the various petition drives carried on in Michigan to get a proposal on the ballot in November removing school maintenance and operational funds from property taxes. The petition drive sponsored by the MEA got enough signatures to at last accomplish this pur pose. Also included in the MEA proposal is the opportunity to vole on the lifting nf the han on a graduated income lax in our slate Many people in govern menl favor using state income tax as a method of raising the necessary funds to carry on the educational processes in Michigan, whether it be on a graduated basis or a fiat rate basis. The point is. now at last, the enters have a chance to voice their wishes. 1 am amazed at the number of people who know nothing about this proposal, and apparently are not taking the time to find out what they are going to be asked to vote on in November How can anyone cast an intelligent vote if they won't take the time to even study the basis of proposals put before them on the ballot! It is a short time between now and November, and all of you people who have protested so vehemently against the soaring property taxes, approximately 80 percent-.of which goes to the schools, better wake up and find out what you can do when you walk into that voting booth in November. Study the proposal ahead of time, and consider all of the aspects of it, then make up your mind as to how you are going to benefit the most before you cast that vote. Remember, there is already a case before the State Supreme Court wherein they must decide whether or not it is constitutional for the property tax to bear the burden of education. If the Court decides that it is unconstitutional, as has been declared in some other states, any control over educational funds in your own districts will be unheard of. How much control do you feel you have exercised over these funds under the present properly tax method? Sincerely, Genevieve Struble Hastings, Michigan �Ann Arbor Names School For H.

This is an excerpt from the story: It came as a total shock to Harold Uigan to find out Thur­ sday that he was one nf three retired Ann Arbor school em­ ployes that the Board of Education named buddings to honor. The dedications this week were also made to Clifford Bryant and George Balds. “I’m completely over­ whelmed.” said Logan, when he was contacted by The News yesterday afternoon.

He retired from the school district in June 1971.

Hastings goes to Lakewood, Delton invades Middleville and Maple Valley takes on the Caledonia Scotts. There wasn't much discernable confidence reflected in most of the camps, possibly with the exception of Lakewood The Vikings came through their scrimmages with Haslett and Robichaud, a Class A school in Dearborn Heights, in good shape. The Vikings took on both schools Friday evening and were by far the best on the field, according to observers who know Before softball fades entirely from lhe sports scene until another year, we want lo again (ip lhe hat lo the Hastings Jay errs. who handled lhe State Class I) tournament here in great fashion. Despite seemingly overwhelming weather problems, they turned to and came up with a fine diamond. Ilie Jaycees pul in many hours of labor, and should receive the plaudits of the community. One oQ the greatest guys in softball returned here for the lourney, and helped pitch Farm Bureau of Lansing to the championships. The veteran is Bernie Snow. 47, who maintained full control in the final cham­ pionship game. Bernie did a real "now” job in pitching Bliss to the State crown here in 1967, and again last year when he pitched for Onondaga Ted Cline, who teamed with Mark Flaherty to win the first flight in the Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce’s best ball tournament, wrote Bob Johnson his thoughts on the event: "Dear Mr. Johnson. "I feel that since you took the lime to thank me for playing in your tournament, the least 1 can do is return lhe thanks for a job well done 1 have played in enough tournaments to know which are run well and which ones 1 will not return to. Yours. I can happily say. will be a pleasure to play in again "So. good luck, and may your tournament prospect Outdoor Trail—Conservation Officer Brent Willison reports that black crappies or "specs” have been hitting on Payne and Bass Lakes Fisherman are using pinkies-a pink leaded lure with a white feather on the back. The larger the lure, the bigger the fish. Brent said. We wrote a few weeks ago that pike hadn’t been hitting because they shed their teeth about this time of year A DNR expert is quoted as saying the pike shed their teeth just as pine trees shed their needles-and not just during August or thereabouts. We stand corrected. The pheasant season may not be too bad in this area. We saw a young cock on lhe Hastings Country Hub golf course a while back Northern Michigan ruffed grouse hunters who take to lhe field Friday. Sept 15. may better last season’s mark of an estimated 484.000 birds. DNR reports Observers indicate that the Upper Peninsula’s supply of ruffed grouse is about as good as a year ago when hunters above the Straits outdid themselves by­ bagging 295,000 "pats.” Birds seem more abundant in the northern Lower Peninsula, where about 189,000 were taken a year ago. Ontonagon and Iron Counties are counted on to be the best in lhe U.P. In the report last week on deer shining gun rules, we should have included: During the closed season on small game, you may NOT carry a rifle, shotgun, slingshot or bow from sunset to sunrise. Exception-to transport a bow locked unstrung in the car trunk or cased And during the open season on small game, from sunset to sunrise, you may NOT carry or transport a center fire rifle, or shotgun with slug, ball, buckshot or cut-shell, or a bow unless the gun deer season is also open and you have your gun deer license with you. Again, unstrung bows trunked or cased are an ex­ ception.

Landes 13* Sportsmen Plant 2,500 Walleyes in Wall Lake On Saturday, Sept. 9, lhe Greater Wall Lake Association members planted 2,500, 4-inch walleye fingerlings in Wall Lake. The tiny 3% Ihch fingerling shown was lhe one of 8 light observed not to survive lhe trip. The fish were driven through in a lank trunk, leaving Montour. Inwa, at 8 p.m. Friday and were planted at 8 a.m. Saturday in the middle areas of Wall Lake. These areas were determined lo be the best planting areas by a survey made of the lake with the assistance of the DNR as the little fish will then find their own hiding areas. When planted in shallow areas along the shore they are more easily devoured by the larger fish which have already established their habitat. The Greater Wall Lake Association voted in early summer in favor of a fish plan­ ting program and after con­ solation with the DNR the walleye were chosen as the best game fish for the lake. In lhe 1920's walleyes were planted in the lake and a 1957 survey of the lake by the DNR determined that lhe walleyes were three lo four inches larger than those in other lakes, thus showing that the lake has-an GAMES FRIDAY NIGHT excellent natural food supply lor Ha*t.ng* al Lakewood. 4 pm. this fish.

There is his effort to avoid World War 1, but he went to the defense of our allies when it struck And there is lhe legacy of his attempt to establish a per­ manent peace through the League of Nations," Brignall declared. "There is still the memory of Franklin Roosevelt binding lhe nation together in depression recovery and war, and to whom ,we in lhe country owe much more than could ever be told in a series of speeches. Simply stated. FDR saved the American way of life. "There is the living legend of Harry Truman, architect of the Marshall Plan and NATO, leader in lhe then unpopular fight for civil rights, and always on the side of the common man. It was Harry Truman who lived to sec Medicare become law. 17 years after he first proposed it in his Inaugural Address "And we can vividly recall a youthful John F. Kennedy, urging us on to New Frontiers. We had all believed that no matter how much we ac­ complished. no matter how hard we tried, that the horizon alwaVs disappeared before it could be reached. But JFK urged us on. and we followed, trusting his youth and his devotion. We have been searching since November 22. 1963, for that spirit of hope that seemed to be lost on a Dalias street. “And we recall Lyndon Johnson, under whom more beneficial health, education, economic and conservation legislation was passed than at any time in recent American history. “And we remember with fondness lhe greatness of Adlai Stevenson and the unfulfilled promise of Robert Kennedy. Nor should we forget lhe names of Hubert Humphrey. Edmund Muskie, Estes Kefauver. Sam Rayburn, Edward Kennedy and many others-the Democ otic leaders in Congress who have been responsible for so much of the value in this country today and the fighters for further progress tomorrow “Today, because we have instituted* progressive reforms, there are too few people who take lhe deserved pride in what the Democratic Parly has ac­ complished for the country in this century. And there are others who seem reluctant to par ticipate in lhe new directions we are taking. But that has been the greatness in our party-we have led lhe course of progress; others have followed. “So even with all the self-doubt and lhe talk of the Democratic Party dying, we still have the numbers; we are still the majority party. “In 1972, we have an op­ portunity to add to the leadership of this century George McGovern and Sargent Shriver. Indeed we have a responsibility to the American people to ensure their election. In 1960, John Kennedy remarked that his duty was not so much to get himself elected, but to keep Richard Nixon from the power of the Presidency. After four years of his leader ship, we can Appreciate more certainly Kennedy’s concern.’’ “In lhe Third District. GaiYy Brown says he is running on his record. Today I would serve notice on him that "so am I.” I intend to discuss person-toperson with the voters of this district lhe policies which have led us to economic uncertaintylhe policies supported by Brown. 1 intend to discuss our continued involvement in the war. and the support Brown adds to its effort. I intend to discuss the right of our senior citizens to a retirement with dignity, and of lhe op­ position Brown voices to this right,” Brignall said. �The Hastings Banner Devoted to the Interests of Barry County Since 1856 ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTEENTH YEAR September 20. 1972 Voters Register Thursday at Hastings High Campaigns Here-Mrs. Marge Griffin (center) was in Barry County Sunday.

Barry to Vote on Half-Mill Tax to Maintain County Roads, Bridges Barry County electors in November will vote on a half-mil) tax to provide funds to keep county roadsand bridges already built in a "reasonable" condition. County commissioners Tuesday, Sept. 12, voted to put lhe proposal on lhe Nov. 7th ballot following the appearance of members of the Road Com­ mission at the meeting. Chairman Clarence Longstreet of the Road Commission told the county board that there is a bridge in Hope Township and one in Carlton closed to traffic, and their replacement would cost about $25,000. There are also 42 short span bridges and several large culverts in need of replacement in the near future, and the minimum estimate of these replacements would be $395,000. Longstreet said it is becoming necessary to post more and more of these bridges for restricted loadings that would prohibit their use by school buses and heavy farm machinery. The half-mill tax, if approved. would raise about $83,000 of the present equalized valuation. The motion to place the measure on the ballot was made by Hastings' commissioners after they were informed about one-third of lhe money would revert to cities and villages in the county for similar repair of existing roads and bridges within their boundaries. Commissioner Monty (Joe) Bennett reported that the county may end the year between $70,000 and $80,000 in the "red." Bennett based his projection on the level of spending during the first eight months of the year. "4f the present level con­ tinues." Bennett asserted, "tbe jail lock-up may end up as much as $37,000 in the red and the cost of operating the Sheriff's Department may run $29,000 in the red." Other major deficit areas in­ clude state institutional care, the prosecuting attorneys office, Circuit Court and Friend of the Court. Those departments ex­ ceeding their budgets, however.

Barry to Vote on Half-Mill Tax to Maintain County Roads, Bridges Barry County electors in November will vote on a half-mil) tax to provide funds to keep county roadsand bridges already built in a "reasonable" condition. County commissioners Tuesday, Sept. 12, voted to put the proposal on the Nov. 7th ballot following the appearance of members of the Road Com­ mission at the meeting. Chairman Clarence Longstreet of the Road Commission told the county board that there is a bridge in Hope Township and one in Carlton closed to traffic, and their replacement would cost about $25,000. There are also 42 short span bridges and several large culverts in need of replacement in the near future, and the minimum estimate of these replacements would be $395,000. Longstreet said it is becoming necessary to post more and more of these bridges for restricted loadings that would prohibit their use by school buses and heavy farm machinery. The half-mill tax, if approved. would raise about $83,000 of the present equalized valuation. The motion to place the measure on the ballot was made by Hastings' commissioners after they were informed about one-third of the money would revert to cities and villages in the county for similar repair of existing roads and bridges within their boundaries. Commissioner Monty (Joe) Bennett reported that the county may end the year between $70,000 and $80,000 in the "red." Bennett based his projection on the level of spending during the first eight months of the year. "4f the present level con­ tinues." Bennett asserted, "tbe jail lock-up may end up as much as $37,000 in the red and the cost of operating the Sheriff's Department may run $29,000 in the red." Other major deficit areas in­ clude state institutional care, the prosecuting attorneys office, Circuit Court and Friend of the Court. Those departments ex­ ceeding their budgets, however. Have you registered to vote? Time is getting short before the 1972 Presidential Election! The Hastings Public School officials are again making the facilities of the school available to the township clerks of Barry County for the purpose of voter registration. On Thursday, Sept. 21, from 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. in the Honor Study Hall, above the Library, 2nd floor of the new high school, designated stations will be set up for each township clerk to take new registrations. Hastings voters must register at the City Hall. It is hoped that all 18,19, and 20 year old young men and women, who have not registered, as well as any other citizen who needs to renew his registration, will take advantage of this opportunity to register at thjs time. With a total of 173 registering last year, we’re hoping for a tremendous increase! Steal Cemetery Mowers Two Lawn Boy power mowers were reported Friday, Sept. 15, as stolen from the Rutland Cemetery.

Tfli wi �School Board Studies ‘Property Tax Reform’ Hie "property tax reform” Proposal C on the November ballot is not necessarily a tax relief plan as it regards working people, but it should provide .property tax relief F That was in essence the ex­ planation of the proposal given at the Tuesday. Sept. 11. meeting of the Hastings Area Board of Education. If adopted, the proposal would put a ceiling on the amount of taxes that could be raised on property, and would toss to the Legislature the problem of financing education in Michigan, according to Dr Lynn Mc­ Connell. speaking for the property tax revision committee of the Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce In the same election electors will vote on removing the con stitutional ban against a graduated income tax. If it passes, the Legislature will adopt the tax legislation -either an increase in the flat rate income tax or a graduated one. Removing the ban against the graduated tax doesn't mean that a graduated tax must be adopted. Dr. McConnell said at this point the Chamber of Commerce had taken no stand on the property lax revision proposal. He explained that Hastings property owners are paying a total of 55.20 mills, including the city, county and school taxes, while others in the Hastings school district are paying a total of 40.75 as they pay a one mill township tax and not the 15.45 city tax. Proposal C. if adopted, would put an 8-mill ceiling on the amount of property tax that could be raised for county purposes, 1.5 mill limit on township tax and 4.5 for intermediate school districts. There would be no allocation for school operation, although the school districts could vote tar to six mills for additional school monev over and above that which would be received by the State. Counties-townships could also vote a collective additional 6 mill levy. Under plans currcolly being considered in Lansing, Supt. of Schools Richard J. Guenther indicated Hastings would im­ mediate require a special twomill vole to maintain its present (wogram. Hastings now pays 24 mills for school operational costs. The proposal would not affect taxes already voted for debt service Supt. Guenther said there were two sides to the proposal, but that personally he would like to get out of the millage-raising business. He said schools were about the only units asking for more property tax dollars, and often bare the brunt of taxpayers' resentments. Supt. Guenther said he wasn't afraid of losing local school control should he financing come from Lansing. He added that the courts can be expected to rule in favor of equalization throughout the State to provide equal educational opportunities for all children. "It is unfair taxation when we tax people out of their homes," the educator added. County Commissioner Edward McPhariin spoke in favor of property tax reform. He, too, said he wasn't worried about Iosina local control of our Transporting the 14 kin­ dergarteners living in the hazardous "walking" areas would be $1,758.60 for the school year Two buses would be needed. If athletes were provided transportation home, shouldn't band members, the operetta and play casts, and others, be provided rides too? Also, If it is hazardous for Kindergarteners to walk in specific areas, perhaps it is equally as dangerous for first and second graders. Where to draw the line added to the problem, and Supt Guenther recommended that matter remain as it has been-no ad­ ditional bus transportation. There was no formal action, but a position may be taken at the Oct 10 school board meeting to be held at Pleasantview. Board members took no action on requests to provide tran­ sportation to high school athletes after practice and games, and for transportation for Kin­ dergarteners who must walk in areas considered hazardous. Robert Miller, administrative assistant for non-instruction, reported it would cost $11,424 a year to transport the more than 80 athletes who indicated this Fall they would utilize bus i— —i transportation after practice. *---------------- OF THE PEOPLE -J Miller explained that four buses would be required To the Editor: traveling 124 miles a day.

Total attendance numbered in the thousands with at least half (and probably more) coming from out­ side the county Tbe crowds were orderly and the events varied and interesting It is a valuable service, we believe, for the Park to sponsor an event that helps keep alive interest in the arts and crafts that were so much a part of the life of 19th Century Michigan Under the guidance of Frank Walsh, the Park has been making steady progress in the right direction. Without dramatics or fanfare, he has used the limited financial resources available to improve facilities there in line with a sound, long range program As an example, the rambling, "Red Bam,” that was once closed to the public and crammed with a miscellaneous collection of machines, tools and other artifacts of 19th Century Michigan, has been rearranged for display with screened walkways along which interested spectators can brouse at leisure. Only those who walked through the interior of the "Bam" as it originally was can appreciate the hours of planning and work that went into the project About Municipal Bonds Kipke Left Enviable Record Politicians attempting to exploit tax-free municlple bonds as manly vehicles (or permitting "the rich'' to avoid taxation are deliberately misrepresenting the facts o( the case-or, as is more probable—they do not fully understand what they are talking about. Municlple bonds, issued to finance such local building projects as schools, water systems, sewage disposal plants, jails, courthouses, and other improvements, command lower interest rates because they are tax tree However, if issued on the same terms as industrial bonds the interest rates would be subetantislly higher For example, the Hastings Area School District obtained its bonds at 4.7 per cent rate of interest at a time when sound industrial bonds that are not tax free were being issued at interest rates varying 7 to I per cent or more. U the school district had to pay these higher interest rates it would substantially increase the cost of funding the debt-and this cost, of course would have to be passed back to taxpayers in the area in the form of higher taxes. Thus the socalled plugging of the minidple bond tax free "loophole" to save the taxpayers monev on their property taxes actually would result in higher taxes to cover the sharply increased cost of funding if municipalities had to pay bond interest rates competitive with industrial bonds In long term finding, which municipalities have to have in order to ease the yearly tax load, tbe interest paid is a very important (actor indeed A fraction of a per cent difference, means thousands of dollars to a mixncipality The Hastings Area School District was fortunate to get a 4.7 per cent rate on its bonds If the District had been compelled to pay a 7 to ( per cent rate, current with industrials at the time, the interest load here would have been from 48 to 70 per cent higher at the outset and the load would have remained at the same proportional level as the principal was reduced "The filthy rich" are by no means the exclusive patrons of the tax-free municipal field There are a countless numbers of small prospective buyers who invest in their own community bonds. We happen to know, for example, that many individuals here in the county own the bonds put out some years ago by the Woodland School District People who are willing to invest in tax-free bonds bearing lower interest rates than the going rate for industrials, are, in effect paying an indirect tax to the communities involved in tbe form of making possible lower bond-servicing rates than would prevail at the stan­ dard industrial bond interest rates Poesiblv certain Federal officials are angry at the thought of lax free bonds because they would rather see this extra money come into tbe coffers at Washington where it could be used for Federal spen­ ding They care not what the effect of removal of the tax free classification might mean to municipal and county projects In a sense then, the tax-free bonds represent a diversion of funds for local projects that would otherwise find its way to Washington and the Federal complex. Frankly, those of us at the local level should applaud the fact that there are financial sources open to municipalities and counties at low interest rates because of this tai free status. If it were not for this, only a few of the improvements now underway or completed in our county could have been undertaken Taking away the tax-free status of municipal bonds is a phoney issue It does not represent a sound or desirable step in the rearrangement of government taxation and financing If this step is ever taken it will add tremendously to the cost of county and civic improvements 4 .

"Chuck" was one of 92 former crew members attending tbe reunion of the men who served during World War II aboard the destroyer. He explains that he asked his sister, Mrs. Walter Mesembrink of Evergreen Park, Hl., to attend the reunion with them as she was his "cheerleader” for the almost three years that Chuck was aboard the ship. Her faithful letters and cakes-suuashed and sometimes three to four months old when they arrived-made her almost part of the crew The former shipmates and their families-oneof whom came all the way from Guam-spent the weekend on board the CSS Thom and the nearby Iowa almmoth balled—and were given ntour of the Navy Yards President Nixon sent a telegram of congratulations to the men and lhev were in­ terviewed by two Philadelphia TV stations Tbe highlight of the weekend was a dinner dance with the guests of honor being their old skipper, who is now Vice­ Admiral Frederick H. Schnieder. The ship was commissioned April 1,1943. and wtft a veteran of 33 months of duty in the Atlantic and Pacific, apart of Task Force 58 of the 7th Fleet. Chuck was on ship all the time and became a veteran right along with her of the ship's seven invasions: The Battle of Leyte. Iwo Jirna, Okinawa. Palau. New Guiana, Admirlty Islands and entered the Japanese Harbor. They went through three typhoons. During one of the typhoons 760 men from three destroyers of the 7th fleet were lost. The ship was decommissioned at Charleston, S.C., and since moved to the Philadelphia Naval Base where it is now on the list of ships to be destroyed due to the high cost of upkeep. However, the men have been told that as long as some event is held each year it will be kept intact. Sf HOPE YOU'LL X­ VI SIT OUR STORE ANO SEE Prettiest Floors In Town By Geo. H.

So with these activities there is no reason for anyone to be bored to death with school work, you can always find something, .more enjoyable to do. By Bob After a summer of fun, love and disappointments, it’s back to school for another 9 months. The coming months will not only contain loads of homework, special projects and anything else a teacher may be able to think of, but there will also be many activities for students to participate in this year giving the school year more variety. For those who do not feel they can express themselves in sports, we have a variety of activities for them. To begin with there is debate, a sport of knowledge and skill. This year Delton has a very promising team. After coming in 2nd place in the Wolverine League last year, 6th the year before and being in the basement prior to that, we have plans of becoming number one this year! The team has 3 remaining members from last year, Lisa Christensen, Tom Johncock and Bob Horein. Delton will also have their Musical Follies which Were restarted 2 years ago. The follies still seem to be a rewarding experience for both the stuAft who participates and for thdke who watch. So if you can sing dance we’ll be needing you later in the year.

Then shrubs will not yet have budded out and most weeds cqn be stopped before they really get started.

Michigan's Natural Rivers program is generating considerable controversy here, especially as it concerns designation of our Thornapple River as a Country Scenic River. Harry Doehne of the Department of Natural Resources spoke at the Hastings Rotary luncheon meeting Monday, Sept. 11, and reviewed the aims and ob­ jectives of the program, and there is definitely a "soft sell” approach to the program. Doehne emphasized that it's realization requires a "common sense" attitude on tbe "no cut­ ting" aspects of the river front. and the DNR was attempting to get the program underway through local zoning and action. Doehne said the DNR staff is still in the stage of attempting to explain to people what the Natural Rivers Program is all about. He pointed out that cities and villages are exempt from the law, and that Nashville's fears have been groundless. Some land owners along the river here have been concerned that their cabins and cottages could be moved beyond the 100foot setback designation. Doehne declared that "What is now, would stay." The act doesn’t permit the DNR to move any present structures, but is designed for the orderly d e v el op m e n t --or nondevelopment-for the future, he added. While the program attempts to keep the* rivers beautiful, it doesn’t give canoests or others any rights to trespass. Many people arc concerned over the "policing" of those who use the river, and the establishment of rest areas and toilets. Whether the hundreds who now float down the rivers leaving their wastes along the way can be educated is a big question. Doehne concluded that tbe program, to be successful, must meet with the desires of tbe people. 1 tie. Hastings played without the services of Brad Foltz, 5-10, 170 senior back, who was out all week Lakewood Coach Bill Chinery was all smiles Monday as he reviewed his Vikings' victory over Hastings, and especially when he talked about his soccer­ style place kicker, Roger McCoy. Coach Chinery reports that in junior high Roger kicked two field goals, one from 31 yards out, and as a freshman was to at­ tempt one against Belding last Fall but the center snap was bad. McCoy’s ability didn't "just happen." The 5-10, 150 pound sophomore has been kicking at a target at home for a long time. He also gets to practice early, boots about 20, and then stays after the regular drills to kick another 20. Hastings will meet a big, confident team at Lansing Waverly Friday night. The Warriors lost their inaugural Saturday night to Lansing Catholic, 21-0, but Catholic is tough. Waverly wasn’t too im­ strength gradually.

Morey has proclaimed It a special occasion in Hastings and in his proclamation urged all citizens to visit sportsmens dubs on that day. And to make it very interesting for visitors, the Barry County Conservatioa Club has scheduled an open house on the club’s grounds off Cook Road just west n( Hastings. The open house will be held from 10 a.m. and will continue until 11 p.m., Richard Lancaster, chairman, reports.

Morey urged "all our citizens to join with sportsmen<-onservationists in a i rd rd i cat ion to the wise use of •nir natural resources and their proper management for the iN-nent of future generations. Mayor Morey pointed to the outstanding contributions of Michigan's hunters and fisher­ men to recreation, conservation and the economy and asserted "they are deserving of special recognition.” The proclamation continues: "Since the turn of the century, hunters and anglers havd been the leaders in major con­ servation programs in our cities, states and Washington These sportsmen<onservationists are responsible for the founding of state fish and game departments in all 50 States. They asked that they, themselves, be required to buy hunting and fishing licenses and that the money collected be used to support state con­ servation agencies. Hunters and fishermen asked for season and bag limits so everyone would have a fair chance to harvest the annual crop of game and fish without damage to the basic breeding stock of any species. , Further, sportsmen’s programs ‘ have benefited hundreds of nonKme fish and wildlife through ’ biLal development. ‘Hunters and fishermen/ unique in all America, asked that their fishing and hunting equipment be taxed and that the money be used for land acquisition, research and habitat management for fish and wildlife for the enjoyment of all Americans. In Michigan, through the Michigan United Con­ servation Clubs and its publication Michigan Out-of­ Doors, leadership has developed to lead the fight for a better -environment and the wise use of our natural resources.” To Reveal Plan For New Delton School Sept. 20 The Delton Kellogg Board of Education has set Wednesday, Sept. 20th, at 7:30 p.m. as the date for a public meeting at which time the architects will present preliminary plans for the new high school.

NAB is a private, non-profit, voluntary association of businessmen working in cooperation with government agencies and programs to locate jobs in the private business sector.

They seem to be made to protect the rock throwers etc. instead of the citizens. The account of the shooting stated the driver of the car ap­ peared shaken up when stopped Thats good! Maybe if some of these law breakers were shaken up a bit more there wouldn’t be the crime that there is in Hastings Heaven help us if we can’t go to bed at night without worrying about someone throwing "something" at our window or worse. Where will it stop? A Concerned Citizen To the Editor: We have not received a Hastings Banner since June 16, 1972. Because of unemployment Mr. Bross and I were out in the new Nixon Phase II program job hunting. We put a hold on our mail and upon my return to the home address the Cedar Rapids Post Office had taken the liberty of disposing with 2 months mail Of course Iowa is known for being a Republican State and the in­ dividual civil rights are often questioned by many of us. I see in the future of our family more address changes. Is there someway that you might suggest to us a certainty that we might receive our "hometown newspaper” and not have it "dumped” or “pitched” as has been done according to the Cedar We have missed all of that wonderful summer vacation happenings in Hastings At the present time and for a full 7 nights in one place which really brings Peace for a change our address will be for a few weeks.

Thursday. Sept. 14. reviewed the rezoning request of four residents who want their property made industrial rather than residen­ tial-agricultural. Their cause was presented by the Zoning Xdministrator Justin Cooley. There were no negative arguments submitted, and the council is expected to take favorable action on rezoning the properties at the Sept 28 meeting. The properties involved are the Nashville Locker plant, owned by Richard Chaffee: the Blakely Concrete plant, owned by Russell Blakely; the Wheeler Marina, owned by Vernon Wheeler, and a piece of property at the west edge of the Blakely property which is to be sold to Qiarles Werner to be used as a drive-in restaurant. Michigan Football Coach 1 Schembechler now ranks fit among active coaches in winnii percentage, having compiled mark of .747 over the course nine segsons. The properties involved are 732 feet by 660 feet along M-66 just at the south edge of the village. Vernon Wneeler asked for another public hearing at the Sept. 28 meeting to rezone a strip of property directly across from the Marine to also be rezoned to industrial. Presently he intends to use buildings, already there, as storage for his snowmobiles, etc. The council members listened to representatives from the Dow Chemical company of Midland discuss the feasibility of removing phosphates from the sewage treatment plant, as now required by the State, by means of chemicals. In a special meeting August 28 Charles J. Cross was hired as a part time police officer to relieve the two regular officers on weekends.

This system would work and make real sense but one problem is that with this system, the people who are governed fail to express their ideas and opinions in both the Federal and State governments and also in the High School Student Council, so consequently the Representative has to give his own ideas and opinions and this leads up to the country being run by the Representatives and Senators, and the Student Council by the handful of Representatives that are elected.

It would be impossible for everyone to come together in a mass convention to voice each one’s opinions. The US has a system to solve this problem called Represen­ tative Democracy. This is. each state gets to choose a representative from each district to express the peoples’ ideas in an area, also the states have two representatives to serve on the Senate at the national level.

The flag came to the larsons through her uncle and aunt, the late Mr. and Mrs. George Tinkler, and it was given to them many, many years ago by Col. Albert Kniskern. who served as a General during World War 1. It is not known if this very large flag had military signifinance or a local background of fraternal organizations, in which groups Col. Kniskern was very active at one time. All of this raises the question of “Where does antiquity begin?", and other related queries. Perhaps these questions will be answered in future years by the Charlton Park staff because this historic flag was presented to Charlton Park by Mr. Barlow at the meeting of B.C.H.8. on Sept. 21sL held at the park. Incidentally. Mrs. Larson was one of the many people who began the local Adult Education (lasses on Tuesday. Sept. 19th.

It was on the comer of Green St. and Church streets when a car going cast on Green signled for a left turn on Church. This meant that traffic behind him was at a stand­ still until he could get off Green St. It was quite some time before any car going west would wait one half moment, even when all traffic lanes were full, to let this east bound car turn. One west boiaid car finally did-license F H C 548. A salute to the one fellow in that car who was driving. We talk much about courtesy on the highway but how often do we see it—even right here in town. It is a pleasure to send this information to the Sec. of State (which we are doing) and we’U learn the identity of this considerate and thoughtful driver. We need many more like him.

Senior halfback Dick Dunham (6­ 3, 205, who individually gained 126 yards rushing or 23 more than the entire Hastings team) was the spearhead in the Waverly attack. Dunham capped an 84 yard touchdown march when he rambled 39 yards into the end zone with 10:13 left in the first half. Steve Barnum recovered his first of two Waverly fumbles to halt the Warrior’s third quarter drive. Hastings was unable to move the ball and kicked.

John has been writing licenses for a long time, and probably always will, but he has misgivings about the future of Michigan's system. Handling the State's hunting and fishing licenses is far from a paying proposition, but it does have advantages to a store owner However, if it gets much more complicated--what’ll happen Probably the State will nave to set up another million dollar bureau to handle the permits. Resident license fees are: Small game $5, firearm deer $7 50, archery deer $7.50, bear 15.10, sportsman’s $18.50 The Senior citizens deer license is just one buck. t Final returns from the pheasant brood survey shows that the birds made their biggest gains, averaging about 30 per­ cent higher than last year, in Branch, Van Buren, Kalamazoo and*Calhoun Counties in south­ western Michigan. Allegan, too, has a better supply. Drum Major Denny Brogan will lead the 149-piece Saxon Marching Band onto the field Friday night in the 1972 home opener against Charlotte. Band Director Terril Zylman has announced that the band this year is using all company front and phalanx drills, rather than the block. For the first game the band will play "Olympic Fan­ fare,” will feature the trumpet section in "Trumpe Ole,” will follow with "Make Me Smile" and the finale will be a special arrangement from the movie, SHAFT*. Along the Sidellnes-Offlcials at the Waverly-Hastings game (Joe Templar, Gordon Motcheck, Charles Boyd and Harold Bell) did a great job. They called just three major penalties, and really kept the game moving. . ."How sweet it Is” was the way Mid­ dleville Coach Bob White described the Trojans 42-19 beating handed defending champion Kelloggsville Friday night. Kelloggsville whipped Middleville last Fall, and the Trojans weren’t permitted to forget it. . Coach White's son, Rob, is now head man at Clarkston High. Clarkston downed Holly F riday, bouncing back after losing the inaugural to Oxford. Rob’s assistant is Dave VanElst, who served last year at Middleville. Rob went to “Dennis” Announces Hastings and Lakewood each boast improved football fields this Fall. Hastings was the first to play on the improved Lakewood gridiron on the 15th. The field was crowned and sodded and in good shape. Hastings' Johnson Field has also been crowned and the center resoded, fertilized four times and over-seeded by a drill. The field is in good shape, but Robert Miller reports that "We’re a year away. By next Fall the field should be ideal.” New bleachers for Die present seats are also on the agenda for next Summer. . fyke Home SPECIAL! p SNACK-PAK aLDINNER-PAK pP CRISPY 9 & CRISPY 15 .65 1.25 2.65 REG. 7Sc COMPLETE FAMILY MEAL J O E IS PCS.

The theme was “Lighting a Spark" ^Alfred Lowe of Hastings, one of and much of the new religious music of today was presented. the four music directors who Adam L. Offenbecker was the participated, leads the group in a Sunday morning rehearsal (estival coordinator, assisted by ‘between services.-Banner photo. Jeff Stamm. Mrs. Doris Wim­ berly was the registrar. Here United Fund Supports Vital Family Service Family and Children’s Service of Calhoun County provides services to Hastings and Barry County also. There is a branch office in Hastings at 146 E. State St. which is open on Fridays. Services available include marriage and family counseling, problem pregnancy and adoption services. (This year the braribh has fortunately been able to share office facilities with the Child Guidance Clinic and the Delano Adult Mental Health Clinic, both offering services from Kalamazoo. Ideally, this provides more unified and complete psychological services to this community. In 1971, Family and Childrens Services assisted 121 families from Barry County. Through July of 1972, 204 families have been provided service of some type. Continuing improvement in the quality of service is the primary goal. John Dilworth Is the counselor who comes to Hastings on Fridays. He has a master’s degree from Western Michigan University and has majored in psychology. He has worked for Family and Children's Service since March of 1970. Prior to that he had worked with a psychiatric team at Ireland Army Hospital at Ft. Knox while in the Army. Other work experience has been with the Community Mental Health agency in Elizabethtown,* Ky., Job Corps at Ft. Custer, and with the Psychological Services al Lima State Hospital in Ohio. He also currently instructs Psychology classes at Kellogg Community College on a part­ time basis. Th<^ spectrum of problems presented to a multi-service agency such as the Family and Children’s Services is vast. Full discussion of them fills many books on psychology and human adjustment. A common one, however, is problems with communications. Words and gestures we use can typically have many different meanings. We sometimes assume a meaning the other person did not intend. Many people have dif­ ficulty expressing themselves to others, even people they love and care about. These conditions cause many problems. The counseling procqps at­ tempts to understand these problems, clarify them and tries to approach realistic goals and solutions. There are varying degrees of success. The ultimate goals, however, are adjustment, positive change and happiness for all involved. The service is supported by the United Community Fund.

Since 1908, they have attempted to reach every home in the Nation with their spiritual message. They believe that Christ is the only hope for a world plagued with runaway crime, devastating wars, polluted environment and exploding population Their aim: "to teach all nations the everlasting gospel of our Lord-and the com­ mandments of God,” sums up their reason for a steady, con­ sistent witness to the world about them. The Ingathering Appeal is part of a many-sided evangelistic program fostered by Adventists to reach their friends. Its Bible ALGONQUIN LAKE BIBLE Cor. Airport •nd Stat* Rd •w.

YOU ARE INVITED! �Hastings High Students Semifinalists in Merit Program Principal Robert VanderVeen has announced that two students at Hastings High School have been named Semifinalists in the 1973 National Merit Scholarship Program. The students are Joe Etter, son of Mr. and Mrs. George Etter, and Tom Hubbard, son of Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Castleman. The approximately 15,000 Semifinalists are among the Nation's most academically talented high school seniors. They will compete for some 3,000 Merit Scholarships to be awarded in 1973. The Semifinalists received the highest qualifying scores in their states on the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test­ National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Teat (PSATNMSQT), which was given last October to over one million students in about 16,600 schools nationwide. They constitute less than one percent of the graduating secondary school seniors in the United States. The Semifinalists show high promise for leadership in their adult careers, according to Edward C. Smith, president of the National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC). “They have already demonstrated both high intellectual capacity and a readiness to develop their abilities," he said. “These students deserve credit and honor. They bring honor to their families, who deserve much credit, as do their teachers and their communities. The future success of these young people will, however, depend upon their ability to become productive at the high intellectual levels that they are capable of attaining." Semifinalists must advance to Finalist standing to be con­ sidered for the Merit Scholar­ ships to be awarded next Spring. Semifinalists become Finalists by receiving the endorsement of their schools, confirming their high PSAT-NMSQT performance on a second examination, and providing information about their accomplishments and in­ terests. About 96 percent of the Semifinalists are expected to become Finalists, and each will be considered for one of the 1,000 National Merit 11000 Scholar­ ships which are allocated on a state basis. Many will also be considered for the renewable four-year Merit Scholarships provided by some 500 cor­ porations, foundations, colleges, unions, trusts, professional associations, other organizations, and individuals. Each Finalist will receive a Certificate of Merit in recognition of his outstanding performance in the program. Winners of four-year Merit Scholarships may receive up to SI.MS a vear far four college years, depending on their In­ dividual need. Winners of the National Merit S1000 Scholarships will receive their nonrenewable one-time awards after they enroll as full­ time students in accredited U.S. colleges or universities. High school grades, ac­ complishments, leadership qualities, and extracurricular activities of the Finalists are evaluated, along with test scores, in selecting lerit Scholarship ■ winners NMSC identifies the Semifinalists to all regionally accredited colleges and and to certain universities_______________ agencies that provide financial aid. Many of the Semifinalists receive financial aid *from sources other than the Merit Program Names of the winners 1973 Merit Scholarship Pr will be announced in the sp 1973. Over 31,000 students have received Merit Scholarships in the seventeen annual programs to date. TWO GOOD REASONS Shopping Needs And While You Are Thinking About Christmas Gifts Think About These...

He suggested people cooperate with the police by letting them know when law violations are seen. There is no thought to have citizens attempt to make arrests or apprehend individuals. Chief of Police Richard Sunior said the cooperation of citizens would be great, but that their participation should be only to inform the police of activities, and not to become involved in actual police duties. Chief Sunior added that the interest of the citizenry will be very welcome. "We would like additional eyes on the alert for law infractions.” Chief Sunior added. He did say the program might bring some people to make un­ founded reports. He pointed out that giving a false report to a police officer or department was a misdemeanor. Chief Sunior said that policing a community can be only as good as the backing the police received from the people. Chief Sunior on Sept. 25 reported that in the previous Hday period his officers bad in­ ’ vestigated 58 actual crmies, including assaults, breaking and entering, larcenies, shoplifting, weapons violations, indecent exposure, child neglect, nar­ cotics and other offenses.

Underway A new downtown Hastings, visually at least, is being developed in a pilot program, according to the Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce. "Project PRIDE: beautiful downtown Hastings" is already underway in an effort to create an esthetic view of the central business district. Recently, two Hastings* organizations have approved funds for the project in hopes that their contributions will help develop a "new atmosphere for an enjoyable shopping ex­ perience in the Hastings* business community.’’ The impetus for such a project was provided by the Centennial Committee’s allocation of 11,060 to be used for purchase of durable tree planters. At a recent meeting of the Welcome Wagon Club, members voted to donate their project funds this year for "beautifid downtown Hastings." The club, composed of newcomers to the area, will sponsor a "Monte Carlo" night on Saturday, Nov. 4. A club spokesman said, "This is our second Monte Carlo venture and we’re looking forward to the entire community’s support in helping us to create a pleasant shopping atmosphere in down­ town Hastings " Phase I of Project PRIDE Is scheduled to begin immediately, according to Bob Johnson, Chamber executive. "With the direction of the Parking Authority Committee, we will offer support continously so that a ‘truly esthetic parking mall’ can be completed this year. The Chamber and the downtown business community sincerely appreciates the efforts of the Centennial Committee and Welcome Wagon Club for their desire to see such a program developed," Johnson said. It appears that traffic on State St. has increased substantially since the new M-37, 43 was opened, Johnson said. "Project PRIDE includes a parking mall with no through traffic in the twoblock area between Church and Michigan. The new tree planters could be used very effectively as a barricade at the intersections," Johnson continued. Even after Phase I Is com­ pleted. Project PRIDE will continue. Suggestions for ad­ ditional downtown beautification include a covered sidewalk, park benches, trees and flowers along the sidewalks, a central theme for storefronts, more offstreet parking, gas lights, fountains and a pedestrian mall.

Allen, we have learned to know many of the friends of our daughter and her family. However, we did not realize the depth of the com­ passion of your town. So manykindnesses were shown by so many people that it would be impossible to mention them all. The churches of all denominations who prayed sincerely for his recoveiy, the individuals who . furnished transportation and help with family matters, and the Hastings Manufacturing Company, whose administration and employees proved that a large company is not cold and impersonal. At the time of the funeral the gifts of food, and here everyone Bve the best they had and the test of everything, the flowers, the contributions to the Cancer Society, and the personal concern shown to the members of the family certainly show a com­ munity with a heart. If there are those concerned about our young people they should be reassured as their kindness and compassion was equal to lhat of their elders. These are generally difficult situations for young people but each one showed their kindly concern with poise that we might well Emulate. Our. recent experience leads us to believe that every resident should be proud to live in Hastings. There are no words to express our gratitude. To say "thank^ou for all you did" seems so inadequate Ruth and Maurice Strahl EDITORIAL -------------------------- by R. M. C.-----------------------------Ralph Nadar is off base in arguing that the auto industry should absorb the entire cost of the many government-mandated safety features that, now come as standard equipment on the new models, These, he maintains, should have been installed years ago. Had drivers been willing to pay the cost on a voluntary basis, they probably would have been. Seat belts, for example, have been available as optional equip­ ment for nearly two decades, but only a few motorists wanted and were willing to pay for them Even now. when belts are required on all new models, check tests indicate that less than thirty per cent of the drivers are using them. The rest are finding ways ana means of getting around the elaborate (and costly) system of butters, flashing lights, etc., that are supposed to insure their use. The above is not an argument against seat belts. We believe they should be used by 100 per cent of the drivers 100 per cent of the time. No driver can predict in advance when a crash will happen in which the seat belt represents the difference between severe injury and no injury at all It could happen while going around the comer in your ow n block But. enforcing the use of seat belts represents a problem to which there is no ready solution. Passing a law is easy. But. the public uproar that would follow in the wake of systematic police inspections of cars passing down the highway would be more than any govern­ ment could stand. Safety devices are needed not on account of any fundemental bad faults in car construction, but rather on account of "the nut behind the wheel" who drives under the influence of alcohol, who ignores speed limits and safety signs, who uses the roadways and city streets for "drag-racing" stunts and who weaves in and out of crowded traffic lanes without giving proper signals for his eccentric actions The "nuts,” fortunately constitute a minority of the total drivers but their actions are responsible for a majority of the highway crashes and fatalities. This is a fact of life for which the automotive industry is not responsible. They should not have to pay for the cost of safety features and constructions decreed by the government to give some protection, at least, from the excesses of the "nut behind the wheel." Pioneer 10, a 570-Pound. saucer-shaped craft loaded with a cargo of sophisticated scientific instruments is outward bound on hum's first attempt to reach the stars If all goes well and the un­ manned craft survives the "celestial shooting gallery " of the asteroid belt some millions of miles out. it will hurtle past the planet Jupiter and, years later, bidding adieu to the Solar System, will enter into the Milky Way Galaxy, of which our own earth is one. infinitesimal part. Then, some eighty thousand centuries later of about the year 8,000,000 A.D., if it remains on course, Pioneer 10 will reach the Constellation of Taurus, swing past the star. El Nath and continue on indefinitelyan orphan of the Universe, so to speak The vovage of Pioneer 10, aside from the scientific value of the mission, dramatizes the tremendous distances of space Launched at an initial speed of 31,000 mph, not quite double that of the Saturn rockets. Pioneer 10 passed the Moon in a mere eleven hours Con­ tinuing at a nine-mile-per second pace, it will take the craft eighteen months to reach Jupiter, four years to bypass Saturn and fifteen years to hurtle past Pluto whose orbit marks the outer boundary of the Solar System. All this, of course, is but the brief preliminary, to the multitrillion-mile voyage to Taurus. Until Pioneer 10 reaches the orbit of Uranus some 1.8 billion miles away, it will gather, stere and transmit back to earth a wealth of information that will take scientists a decade or more to evaluate. At this extreme it will take radio signals travelling at the speed of light about two and one-half hours to reach receiving stations back on earth In view of the magnificent isolation in which we dwell, we modems, even with the advantage of scientific discoveries and ad vanced technologies are evidently no nearer to a meaningful conquest of space than were our Slone Age ancestors From now and to eternity earthmen will probably be limited to the confines of their own Solar System Considering what we have done to our "Good Earth." our merciful and all-wise Creator must have planned it that way Somewhere in the vast universe there are doubtless thousands, perhaps millions, of planets capable of sustaining life similar toWhat of our own earth But this is a speculation that is never likely to be confirmed. The star nearest to earth, for example, is Alpha Centuri, some four light years away. That doesn’t seem far until one realizes that four light years is the equivalent of about 244 TRILLION milesand there is no evidence that Alpha Centuri has a planetary system similar to that of our own Sun. So, we can safely leave the "Little Green Men" and flying saucers to the realm of science fiction where they rightfully belong. i— Voice—i I -------------- OF THE PEOPLE-J To the Editor: The Barry. County Red Cross Blood Bank'sends out an urgent call for volunteers when it makes its annual fall stop at the Mid dierille United Methodist Church on Tuesday. Oct. 10. from 12 o’clock noon until 6 P.M. Once again you have a priceless opportunity to help your neighbor Priceless-because there is absolutely no substitute for your gift, a pint of blood. The pint of blood can save a life, or restore health io a person undergoing surgery, injured in an accident, or recovering from an illness Right here in Barry County are people who depend upon the blood bank to see them through all types of emergencies. Illis could mean you. Should you or a member of your family ever require a transfusion, ail you have to do is call the Red Cross in Hastings, give them the patient s name, the hospital where the blood was ad­ ministered, and the number of units required. That's all-no red tape-the blood will be replaced That’s why Barry County residents are so fortunate and that’s why everyone who is able should donate regularly to insure the success of the program. Anyone between the ages of 18 and 65 who is in good health, can give That pint of blood will be replaced in your body in a matter of hours. So. whether you are a new donor or a seasoned volunteer, you can be sure of a cordial welcome when you participate in the Blood Bank, and the warm thanks of your friends, family, and neighbors all over Barry’ County.

The sportsman has a special respect and admiration for the animals and out-of-doors. They acquired a yearning for the wilds which only another sportsman can understand. Whv else would a man or woman sit out in the cold for hours waiting for a buck to come by? For a few tough steaks? I doubt it. Or why would the trapper go out in the freezing cold every morning to check his traps, through woods and swamps way on the beaten path? Fot a $2.00 muskrat? Not hardly, it’s a lot more than getting the games. Trapping and hunting seasons bag firnits are set up by the Department of Natural Resources who are aware of the game situations. Animals that become overpopulated in an area often die off to disease or shor­ tage of food. Groups that oppose these sports don’t realize that sport­ smen annually contribute 100 million dollars in license fees, approach 40 million in excise fees, find 3' million a year to create duck breeding grounds and since the early 1930 s have put some 2.2 billion into the improvement of the game situation. In companion, the Friends of the Animals Inc., a New Yorkliased society operating on a budget of some $468,000, doles out not one nickel for real con­ servation purposes. About 530,000 of this budget is spent on spaying stray dogs and cats. Conservation is today and will be tomorrow what the hunters, trappers, fishermen, and real con­ servationist contribute to make it. Martin S. Preston RR4 Hastings, Mich.

One thing that needs to be corrected is the fact that trap­ ping and hunting seasons are open after the young are reared 36’s Orange Flavored | THERMOS or Aladdin VACUUM BOTTLES Head& Shoulders SHAMPOO To the Editor: After reading the September School Board minutes in the Sun and News. I have come to the conclusion that if the people of this community want to know all that goes on at these meetings, they really ought to attend. We can read how well the members on this board agree by the "Yeas all. earned" after every motion as stated in the printed minutes, but how are we to know about the subjects brought up which are thought to be either too trivial to record in the minutes or are simply omitted because the people of the community would not agree with the decisions made and may voice their disapproval questioning whose welfare is really being considered in these matters-the people’s or that of the administration I am referring to the plea of our ex-Community Pool Director. Mrs Mary K Hoogerland. to be permitted to return to work at our pool in the capacity of a Water Safety Instructor Mrs. Hoogerland is more than qualified to hold such a position as she is not only a Water Safety Instructor but also a Water Safety Instructor Trainer (Barry County’s only one incidentally) and a First Aid Instructor. She has worked numerous years al the West Y in Grand Rapids instructing the mentally retar­ ded. physically handicapped, water babies, tiny tots, adults, and children of all ages. For many years she has been and still is the director of our Youth Council swimming program and also hdlps at the 4H pool with syncronized swimming. Why then is she not allowed to teach swimming in our pool? It is because the board took the recommendation of the ad­ ministration and refused to rehire her Mrs Hoogerland brought her plea before the board and the decision was handed down in an "executive meeting" after the regular meeting was adjourned Having gone before the board why wasn’t her plea recorded in the minutes of the regular meeting and why are there no published minutes of the "executive meeting" and an accounting of the vote made known to the public’’ As a taxpayer of this com­ munity with school aged children, I am deeply concerned. If the welfare of the community, the safety of our children in the pool, and the desire to have the nest qualified personnel working at our pool were considered in­ stead of the dictorial rule of the administration, there would have been no question at al) as to the rehinng of a person as qualified, dedicated and competent as Mary K.

Tickets are available at the Extension Office on S. Michigan in Hastings. Harry County By Arthur J. Slecby County Extension Director If past trends continue, 110 Michigan farmers will be seriously injured by com pickers this fall. Com choppers and blowers will mutilate or sever the limbs of nearly 50 farmers, and wagon accidents will injure more than 75 members of farm families. Still others will suf­ focate in grain bins or be killed or disable by toxic silo gas. To help reduce the human cost of this year’s harvest, review the operator's manual before using harvest machinery. Mount a pressurized dry-chemical fire extinguisher on the power unit of your com or combine. Wear reasonably snug-fitting clothing, which won’t catch on moving parts Remember to set slip clutches. Before making adjustments or repairs, disengage the power­ take-off (PTO) and turn off the engine. Afterward, remove all tools from machinery. Keep riders off tractor drawbars, forage wagons and harvest machines. When working around or under the raised picking heads of a com picker, place jacks or other supports under the heads. Keep the hydraulic imit raised, but don't rely on it alone When forage harvester blades clog with dirt or com, turn off the tractor engine and wait. Cutter heads in the blade box continue to spin momentarily after the power is turned off. Keep people away from the •Activities discharge outlet, which might throw rocks or stalks while the harvester is running. When using a forage blower, walk around the feed table. Never step over it or kick at silage. You could lose a fool, the agent warns. Never run the flower faster than recommended by the manufacturer. Before operating self­ unloading wagons and portable elevators, make sure the PTC) shaft guards and shields are in place. When unhooking the wagon on a slope, first block the wheels. Before you move or disassemble a portable elevator, lower it. A raised elevator may strike overhead power lines and is unstable. Make sure the portable elevator lifting cable is in good condition, and the power disengaged before starting the engine. Keep all shields in place, including the hopper safety cover on auger elevators. Stay away from silos for 10 days to two weeks after filling. They may be full of poisonous silo £s (nitrogen dioxide) which can mage lungs and cause lifelong respiratory problems. Remove chute doors at silage level to vent the heavier-than-air gas. Open windows and close doors on silo rooms attached to bams. When driving harvest machinery on public roads, display the Slow Moving Vehicle emblem. b /On Book Farm Bureau Feeds Now WBOOKING& SAVE $7 Per Ton All Year!

Boone Night, Oct. 9, 7:30 p.m. WmM Bonk of Hattioft me t Dakaa Inask �Early Mission Pastor to Return for 50th Rev. Cebert L. Walker of the Hastings Grace Wesleyan Church has announced that a 50th anniversary celebration will be held at the edifice at 1302 S. Hanover Friday through Mon day, Oct. with Rev. Edward Boone, 82, of Des Moines, Iowa, as an honored guest. While the anniversary date is Sunday, the 8th, the Anniversary Service will be held on Monday, Oct. 9. so members of other churches may attend. It will be Rev. Boone Night with the service starting at 7:30 and Rev. Boone will be the speaker. On Sunday, October 8, it will be 50 years since Rev. Boone opened the doors of what was known as the Hastings City Mission, located on Michigan Avenue just south of the Fanner’s Elevator. The Mission was nondenominationa) and its activity covered much of Barry County with social and spiritual work. In those early years lhe Mission was known for its in­ volvement at the County Home and among the less fortunate. Mr. Boonp did considerable counseling with prisoners in the county jail and Sheriff Walter Burd^gavc him ready access to the inmates. Mr. Boone was commissioned County Welfare Officer under the administration of Governor Grossbeck which gave him many contacts with the dependent, afflicted, and neglected children and juveniles. He also worked under the direction of lhe later Judge Ella Eggleston. Mrs. Boone was appointed matron of the Barry County Welfare children and tne Boones had many touching experiences while fostering those entrusted into their care. Judge Eggleston greatly assisted and placed many of these children into worthy homes after they became adCted and prepared for a new lily relationship During these early years Rev. Boone'was appointed probation officer under the later Judge Russel McPeek of the Circuit Court which gave him further opportunity to counsel with those on probation and give them spiritual advice. In earlier years religious services on street corners were extremely popular. Many drove from rural areas to hear the Mission people play their in­ struments and sing the old hymns. Usually each Saturday night they were found on the courthouse corner with hundreds attending. They also visited Nashville. Freeport. Dutton. Woodland and other villages. In one such ser­ vices! Woodland Rev. Boone was again privileged to meet Rev.* Fay Wing, under whose ministry Rev. Boone made his confession of faith. Rev. Wing was one of the oldest twins in Michigan at the time of his death. Religious services were held in lhe Mission on Sunday afternoons and evenings, giving opportunity to meet tne people and hold services at the County Home in the forenoon. The residents were extremely delighted to have them come and often took part in the singing. Rev. Boone recalls there were always more man than women living there Each summer a picnic was held at Thornapple Lake and these residents along with other needy persons were provided tran­ sportation and food by generous businessmen and citizens of Hastings. Annually a financial report, giving lhe names of donors and the disbursements of this work, was printed in The Hastings Banner without cost id lhe Mission. The late Marshall Cook and Rev Boone were dost* friends and Mr. Cook always encouraged him in the Lord’s work until The Boone Family moved to Grand Rapids in 1928 where he founded and paslored a church for nine years. A few years later the Hastings City Mission united with the Pilgrim Holiness Denomination which merged in 1968 with the Wesleyan Methodist Church forming one denomination, The Wesleyans. Other ministers who served this parish are Cal Holstein, Nathan Hawks, Thomas Hoos, B.E. Manker and Mrs. Lila Manker who pastored the church for 22 years and saw it grow from a mere handful to a membership of 100 and a Sunday School averaginging 150 or more. Under her leadership the present building at 1302 So. Hanover St. was completed in 1962. The first service was held in this church on March 18,1962 and the building was dedicated on June 3, 1962 with Rev. A.C. Doehring officiating. Following Mrs. Manker as ministers were V.L. Draggoo, Howard Rogers and Donald Lichty. Rev. Walker, present pastor of Grace Wesleyan Churdi, 1302 S. Hanover, and the church council have planned a 50th anniversary celebration service to be held Oct. 6 through 9. Pastor Boone had many wonderful experiences during his years with lhe City Mission, some of which he will relate at this Anniversary Service Recently he received an invitation to at­ tend a 50th wedding anniversary of a couple he married in the parsonage. Some who made their confession of faith under Rev. Boone’s ministry are still living in the vicinity of Hastings. Week night services will begin at 7:30 with Sunday School at 10 a.m.. Worship at 11 a.m. and lhe Sunday evening service at 7 p.m. The public is invited to attend.

THE HASTINGS In Hastings Michigan BANNER......... October 11. UTZ.......... J - ( �anything else to do In Delton. I believe the high rate of car accidents and deaths is true, but in 1970-71, not in 1972. So far this year none of Delton’s young men have been killed, as far as I know only older people have died on the country roads. If the insurance companies have put Barry County in a high risk area, it’s probably because of the condition of the roads rather than the drivers Why don’t you pay more taxes to build places for young people to go ana do something for them rather than for more police protection? Then that would give them something to do besides getting into trouble and hanging around Town Sincerely. A So-called Delton Hoodlum EDITORIAL ---------------------------- by R. M. C.-------------------------------It is not a bit to early to call attention to the coming general election, since Nov. 7 will be here sooner than you think. Every aible citizen, which now includes all of those eighteen years of age over, should take the time to cast a ballot. Although the most important item will be the selection of a President and Vice* ITesident, many other important national, state and local officials will also be named So-mark “NOV. 7“ on your calendar, and plan now to go to the polls on that day In addition to the general ballot there will be a Non-Partisan Ballot for the selection of Supreme Court Justices and Appellate, Circuit and District Court Judges p There will also be a State Proposals Ballot listing five specific proposals to be either accepted or rejected Included are Proposal AA proposal to change Michigan to Daylight Saving Time from May through October: Proposal B-A proposal to allow abortion under­ certain Conditions; Proposal C-A proposal to limit property tax for school, county and township purposes and to provide that the legislature shall establish a state tax program for support of schools; Proposal D-A proposal to remove Constitutional ban against graduated income tax; Proposal E-A proposal to allow the State to borrow $226,000,000 oo for tuition paymenu and bonuses to Vietnam and other Veterans Finally there will be a ballot for a County Proposal regarding a Special Millage Proposition which asks: “Shall the limitation on the total amount of taxes which shall be assessed against all property in Barry County, Michigan, be increased as provided by law by .05 percent (one half mill) of the assessed valuation as equalized on all property in said Barry County for a period of two years, 1973 and 1974, inclusive, for the purpose of providing funds to keep any County­ Roads or Bridges already built in reasonable repair and in condition reasonably safe for public travel? The Official Ballot lisu eight parties, a record number Included will be: Democratic. Republican. American Independent Party, Socialist Labor Party, Human Rights Party, Socialist Workers Party, Communist Party, and.Conservative Party of Michigan Only the Democratic and Republican Parties are presenting full slates. The last four of the above-mentioned parties list candidates for no more than two or three offices This seems like a lot of voting-and it is. However, everything listed is of importance and should be given more than a casual study. We will attempt in coming weeks to outline what is involved in the special proposals and what the “No" or "Yes" votes will mean With so many Proposals coming all at once, it is next to im­ possible to give a detailed and thorough analysis of each proposal. However, a brief summary should be able to outline the objective and significance of each proposal and so give assistance in arriving at your own, personal conclusion Judge Mary Coleman merits election to the Michigan Supreme Court solely on the basis of her record as a lawyer, a probate judge whose professional competence has been recognized throughout Michigan and as a citizen who has taken active roles in a multitude of useful local projects. . Although fully appreciating the responsibility and power vested in the judicial office. Judge Coleman has been extremely careful to avoid overstepping what might properly be described as the reasonable limits of judicial authority Judge Coleman has shown a high regard for individual rights and sympathy in dealing with difficult juvenile cases Rehabilitation whenever possible and not punishment alone has been a key factor in her court decisions Judges, she believes, should interpret, and not make laws. With this, we agree one-hundred per cent. If a court, especially a supreme court, decides to become "activist" and take over legislative roles by issuing judicial decrees, it creates an unhealthy situation, since there is no branch of government empowered to term a Supreme Court action unconstitutional Such decisions are not healthy in that they, more often than not. create confusion all down the line and take over functions that, in the American scheme of things, rightfully belong to legislative bodies. , Michigan's present Supreme Court is in need of more justices of Mary Coleman's professional experience, if the Court is to regain once more the degree of veneration and respect that a High Court should have When a Supreme Court oversteps judicial bounds to incorporate along with a decision, punitive language directed against individuals, il loses stature among people, most of whom are intelligent enough to know that such things should not be Michigan's present Supreme Court is badly in need of more justices of Judge Coleman's caliber. It appears that Coliannist Jack Anderson has laid another “muckraking" egg whose florid conclusions are not supported by the real facts of the case The latest "victim" is Justice Lewis Powell, a recent appointee to the U.S Supreme Court Anderson claims to have unearthed a con­ fidential memo that reveals a pro business bias. This document, he claims, was secretely circulated by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce In it Mr. Powell expressed the opinion that the present business system was basically sound and advised those who believed likewise to use available legal tools to preserve it. This does, of course, reflect a pro-business attitude. However, Mr Anderson failed to make it clear that the memo was written BEFORE Mr Powell was appointed to the Supreme Court and that it thus reflected the opinion of one speaking as a private citizen. Anderson s sleuthing did not uncover anything to discredit Mr Powell’s record on the Supreme Court Everyone may not agree with the opinions expressed by Mr. Powell in his memo, but, as a private citizen, he had every right to speak out. He came on the acene as a conservative and did not at­ tempt to represent himself as something different for the sake of advancement Thus, the contents of his memo should provoke neither surprise nor consternation. He advocated nothing illegal or shady but specifically mentioned a policy of working within the law Undoubtedly an overwhelming majority of individuals, whether they be conservatives or liberals favor working within the system to achieve goals beneficial to the Nation. Obviously there has been and always will be differences of opinion regarding the course of action to be followed However, the objective, a better America, is a factor, common to liberals and conservatives alike Anderson uncovered nothing in his latest “sleuthing" to discredit the record of Justice Powell His almost hysterical conclusions were totallv discredited by the actual facts of the case iSe brand of journalism that Anderson has been giving us of late, is something this Nation can very’ well do without THE HASTINGS BANNER October 11| 1972 In MSU Band—Some of the most colorful events at Michigan State University are the performances of the 225-member Spartan Marching Rand during MSU’s home fool ba 11 games. Among the 83 member* this Fall iFJames Buehl of Hastings. For the first time in the organiiation’s 192-year history, women are marching in the ranks due to a ruling by the Board of Trustees in July. The band perforated at the Notre Dame game, and are performing Oct. 21 (Wisconsin), Nov. 4 (Purdue), Nov. 11 (Ohio State), and Nov. 25 (Nor­ thwestern). A special band trip to Ann Arbor for the MSU vs. Michigan game is scheduled for Oct. 14. Two games are to be televised pending final contracts with the TV networks.

Leading the band are Kenneth Bloomquist, director of bands, and assistant, director David L. Catron. v-Voice—i is a Stale Police Post. I would rather see a State Police Post than to pay more taxes and still not get an improvement in our law enforcement. Also it is my belief that people would set up and take more notice if they were approached by a State Trooper, than our local men. I am not saying that our Sheriff Dept doesn't do a good iob for being short handed because you can't do an excellent job when there is lack of man power and money. Anyway I think the State should help lighten the load, not only tax wise but also, give the local men a little relief I've been doing a little research on how to establish a post in Barry Co and have written several letters. It could be done if the people really wanted to improve our Police force All we have to do is stick together and show good cause As for Sheriff Campbell he has worked real hard for Barry County law enforcement and we can’t blame him because there isn’t enough money appropriated to put on enougn men to cover a county as big as ours. But if we all pitched in and helped maybe we wouldn't have so many little crimes going on. So let's al) talk to our kids, stay out of bars or if we drink a little too much stay off the highways and mainly lets try to educate the people on drugs, and see if this wouldn't help lighten the load and give the men more time to work on bigger things And lets all work on getting a Slate Police Post started. (Signed) A CONCERNED Citizen I-------------- OF THE PEOPLE —J To the Editor: On several occasions you have quoted at length from Judd Arnett's column in the Detroit Free Press As an avid fan of the Free Press, from way back. I agree with you that he is worth quoting-even more than you already have done. But I know you editors are busy people, so-just in case you missed It—I am sending a little gem of an editorial which was printed in the Detroit Free Press yesterday (October 3). I am wondering if you will re­ print it in its entirety, headline and all? As a newspaper man, it should be of intense interest to you; and to Americans who truly love their country, it should cause us all to stop and think. The editorial speaks for itself. Sincerely, Grace Francisco ‘MODEL DEMOCRACY' , IN VIETNAM JUST TO KEEP you up on the news from that model little democracy Mr. Nixon is defending in South Vietnam, we thought you should know that President Thieu confiscated all copies of two Vietnam-language newspapers recently for printing what he said were articles detrimental to national security. The newspapers ran the same story which appeared throughout mjoch of the world—the rumor of a breakthrough in the secret talks in Paris Such a rumor, if true, would be good for the country, but not so good for Thieu's security. For one of the papers, Dien Tin, which means telegraph, it was the second offense under the new press law. and the second offense means foreiture of the $50,000 bond each Vietnamese paper had to pos^ a couple of weeks ago Dien Tin’s first offense came when it ran excerpts from the Pentagon Papers and a Cornell University study on U.S. bom­ bing in Indochina The editor of the paper, by the way. got a year in prison and a $2,500 fine fM^that little caper. Isn't that Thieu something*’ No wonder P.r Nixon and Julie Nixon Eisenhower say they’d be glad to die for him. To the Editor: I've been reading the voice of the people and would like to say I think what we need in Barry Co. To the Editor: To a concerned citizen of Barry County and a Resident of Delton: As a citizen of Delton, I would like to inform you that Delton has police protection. There is a new officer in training that will be ready and on the Delton force sometime in November. As for the only way to get a police of­ ficer to come and investigate ringing burglar alarms is to threaten to take your own life or trying to set fire to Yankee Springs is a little hard to believe The two bars in Delton are more for the adults’ fun than the kids The so called ‘Delton Hoodlums' might go into the tavern and plav some pool or go over and sit in the parking lot and talk but its not because they are hoodlums, it’s because there is not anywhere else to go or Tn the Editor: Last June 5th, Secretary of Defense Melvin Laird told Congress that “the expanded military activity in Vietnam could add $3 billion to $5 billion to the defense budget in the coming fiscal year." That is virtually double the projected annual cost of the war. Is expanding our involvement in Vietnam in terms of military activity and in terms of tax dollars used there, how President Nixon ends our involvement there? Since when is more in­ volvement less involvement? A member of the War Resisters league To the Editor: Many Democrats claim to be undecided about voting for Sen McGovern this year. The reason most often given for this is his changing stand on Sen. Eagleton for V.P. and the Welfare program switch. I wonder if those who feel this way remember Pres Nixon's stand on Communism and Nationalist China? For many yean Nixon was a staunch Cold War advocate and a Nationalist Chinese protector Suddenly in an election year he has embraced both Russia and Communist China and said little or nothing when the Nationalist Chinese were kicked out of the U.N. Throughout most of his term Pres. Nixon refused to consider Democratic suggestions for wage and price controls, then in an election year he imposed wage and price controls but un­ fortunately not profit controls My question: If Nixon can change his mipd, why not McGovern?

Rl Hastings, Mkh.4MM.. i Answers from the Book of _____________ __ : Dear Unde Aaron: Q. What is a Christian? A. Christians are like money. Bjey come ‘two kinds. The real ‘he valuable kind; and the Feit kind which is worse than . Let’s examine some of the of the counterfeit . "Beware of ich come to king, but in* sning wolves, their fruits. . Matt. 7:15, li i. Ask Ives this questia Are fl for --------------H am the true vine. . .ye are the branches.. ."John 15:1-5. Oram I producing for self or for a denomination. The Lord Jesus Christ went on to say, “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven- but he that doeth the will of my father which is in heaven. Many will say to met in that day ’'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name?. . and then will I orofess unto them, 1 never knew you, ocean trom me. ve mat work iniquity." Matt. 7:21-23. Ask yourselves this question. Are thy, or am 1 doing the will of God? God's word is God's will. Do you know it? Do you study it? Do you listen? Do you obey the Word? Perhaps you have already noticed that the real issue is the Lord Jesus Christ. Are you for Him or against Him? with Him, or withoutHim? Jesus said, "He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scathereth abroad." Matt. 12:30. One other fact 1 must not fail to mention. There is only one Lord Jesus Christ, not (57 varieties). The only begotten Son of God. ".. .if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus,. . such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles oi Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. . .II Cor. 11:4, 13-15. The difference is this, the real Christian spends time and eternity with Jesus Christ and God the Father. The rest spend a godless eternity after a godless life here on earth. You can't afford to be wrong on this fact. "Choose you this day whom ye will serve " Joshua 24:15. Continued.

Oct. 15. as National Catholic Daughters of America Day in Hastings while Mrs. Gary Burdick looks on. In his proclamation. Mayor Morey pointed out that the members use their talents and abilities in the service of the church and community. Catholic Daughters of America was founded in Utica. N.Y. in 1903. This organization through its Sevenfold Program of in­ volvement offers women the opportunity for generous, wholehearted Christian response to the leachings of the Second Vatican Council and its directive"that all Christians do apostolic work." Members use their talents and abilities in the service of church and community, enhancing the spiritual life of themselves and others, intensifying patriotism, educating and developing leadership qualities. Hastings Court St. Rita was established almost 20 years ago. Although It’s one of the smallest courts in Michigan, with 42 members, the accomplishments are many. Mission involvement is the mainstay of the local Court. Last year alone over Si.000 was donated to various community and church projects, not to mention the hundreds of numerous items donated to local schools, medical facilities, organizations, etc. Members have workers in all phases of community life-Scouts. Camp Fire Girls, 4H. St. Vincent dePaul, volunteers at the school for retarded, hospital volunteers, ecumenical involvement, civic duties. Red Cross, etc. "Where there is a need, there is a Catholic Daughter." Banner to Recognize Outstanding Scholars Starting with next week's issue. The Hastings Banner will publish a new feature recognizing the top junior or senior student in each of Barry county's five high schools. Created by this newspaper in cooperation with the school principals, the new program hopefully will encourage scholastic and leadership qualities through monthly recognition of outstanding students selected by similar systems set up in each school by the faculty, administrators and student council. The first "Student Of The Month" has already been selected-at Maple Valley High School-and will be revealed next week when the series makes its debut on the "Accent” page, an already established student- oriented feature of The Banner. Each announcement will be in the form of a news story, ac­ companied by a photo. While achieving some welldeserved publicity for their accomplishments, every student also will receive a speciallyprinted "Award of Merit" cer­ tified by Banner Editor George B. Youngs and the student's principal. Additionally. The Banner staff is hopeful that journalisticminded fellow students will be encouraged to write or “by line" the articles about the outstanding students which is another aim of the feature. And the staff ex­ presses appreciation to the ad­ ministrative staff and faculties for the willing cooperation already demonstrated in behalf of the program.

Coach Bob White of the Mid­ dleville T-K Trojans, after pushing his unbeaten squad hard for four straight games, gave the youngsters a day off Monday. Questioned whether this was the first day off granted a squad in his 19 years. White thought he had given one other team a respite. Coach White was proud of his kids’ win at Wayland Friday ‘ After being pushed all over the field in the first half, they came back and the defense got us the ball. That’s all we needed,’’ Coach White declared. Bob Kuhtic probably played his best game ever. White said, rushing for 119 yards in 20 carries. Sophomore Andy Saldivar ran for 63 yards in 11 carries. Quarterback Mike VanAmen ran the team “very well,” White added. This week the Trojans face hapless Byron Center, and the stage could be set up for the Trojan-Hamilton clash at Middleville three weeks hence.

Steeby County Extension Director There is beautiful evidence this vear of the importance of using “N" seed for blight control (SCLB) in com During 1971 and last winter, we heard seed growers and fanners ' poo-poo the importance and extra ex pense of "N”. Anything with ”T” is badly blighted this vear-in plots or in farmer’s field. There is ample evidence that SCLB "T” race inoculum is still with use When the environment is right, like it is this year (1972), and with "T” cytoplasm we can really get dosed with it. So, we continue to recommend “N” cytoplasm seed corn for 1973 In the 19 overstate trials there appears to be a lot of stalk rot and the potential for even more as the season advances Also, there is more ear drop than usual-ears on ground stalk rot in shank There is a good start on ear molds-husks are still tight on most hybrids, warm wet weather and high humidity all con­ tributing to ear mold as well as stalk rot Considerable stalk rot at the crown and through the root system. This is the worst kind-plants break at the ground level and harvester snouts can’t get under them so ears are lost We recommend early harvest again as usual. ___ ;___ SAURY FARM CALENDAR Oct Il-Barry MACH County Council Officers moot M fho Enfomion Ottko. ♦ JO Oct 14-4M Bononta Sala at MSU Oct I4-4M K 0 Klvb up moot.no 4H Lodge, 1 p m.

The Michigan Highway Department has issued an: ultimatum for the City to use State Street for the movement of traffic, or the thoroughfare will be reclassified from a major to a minor street, with resultant loss of revenue. The deadline is July, ‘ 1973. State road experts object to perpendicular parking and the stop signs. Mayor Pro Tern Ivan Snyder, presided Tuesday in the absence of Mayor Cedric S. Morey, read a letter from Gary P. McCarthy, assistant local government engineer for the highway department, which stated that the manner of parking and stop sign configuration "inhibited the ability of State Street to convey the principal flow of traffic as intended. Director of Public Services Mike Klovanich said it may be possible to upgrade other streets to offset the reclassification of Slate Street. Closing of the two blocks of State Street would make it im­ perative to provide an alternate route. Klovanich said Church Street could be improved and taking parking off Court Street would help the traffic flow. To improve Apple Street, more right of way must be obtained. Klovanich declared that it was the City's responsibility to provide for a safe and efficient street system, while keeping pedestrian safety in mind. Klovanich is not in favor of closing the two blocks of State Street. Hastings accepted a gift of 11.060 from the Hastings Area Centennial for use in celebrating the United States’ 200th an• niversary in 1976. The money has been invested in time cer. tiflcates. Another $1,060 from the Cen- . tennial profits was received, ' made out to the Hastings Parking Authority and to be spent on downtown beautification. The $1,060 gift must be mat­ ched. A tentative, • $10,000 . beautification program would provide 40 concrete containerssimilar to those in Lansing-for trees along Stale Street. The containers are 31 inches square at the bottom, 34 inches high and 45 inches square at the top. Larger trees. 3^4 to 4 inches in diameter, would be planted and should be more difficult to be broken by vandals. Because there is actually no legal Hastings Parking Authority, but rather an advisory parking committee, councilmen voted to return the check asking that it be resubmitted made out to the City to be spent on tne recommendation of the parking committee. The Newcomers Club has already announced plans to help finance the project. Should either gift not to be used as directed by the Centennial committee, the money is to go to the Youth Council. ’ Klovanich was authorized to use about $500 to erect a four foot fence around the kiddies* play area in the new First Ward Park. He said the Kiwanh Club had contributed $1,000 and Willard Lawrence another $500 for the park. Fencing the area will make supervision of youngsters much easier. Residents have petitioned for a new storm sewer on Grant. Klovanich said the present 12 inch line was inadequate, and suggested a 48 inch sewer be installed. In heavy rains, yards and basements are flooded. PERSONAL Mr. and Mrs. Lyle Endsley returned from the Geraldton area in Ontario, Canada, Wed­ nesday, Oct. 11, after a two week hunting trip.

C.------------------------- * Five State Proposals will be up for vole at the General Election on Nov. 7. AU of them will have enthusiastic supporters and also equally determined opponents Usually one can be quite safe in voting “NO” on such proposals on the basis that their benefits to the State are nebulous or at best in the interest of specific groups rather than the citizens as a whole who. in the long run. have to shoulder the cost of the added expenses involved. Each of the five proposals up for vole at this election are worthy of consideration and should be studied before a decision is formed The first three will be discussed here. Proposal A4ias to do with the adoption of Daylight Saving Time for the Suite from the last Sunday in April until the last Sunday in October Although there has. in the past been some confusion over the Statement of the proposition, this time everything should be clear. If you favor the adoption of Daylight Saving Time between the dates mentioned, vote “YES” but if you are against the adoption of Daylight Saving Time, vote “NO.” In general, those living in cities and villages and those employed in factories favor adoption of the Daylight Saving Schedule because it gives an extra hour of daylight for recreation after offices and shops are closed for the day. Those engaged in agriculture usually oppose Daylight Saving because it upsets normal routines. Farm animals go along, on their usual schedules despite officially adopted changes in time. Michigan is one of the few states in the midwest (and one of three in the Nation) that does not observe Daylight Saving Time and this is a moderate inconvenience for industries doing business with firms outside of Michigan. Personally, we favor adoption of Daylight Savir^ Time because it will benefit a majority of the people in the states, and judging by the experience in states where it has been adopted does not seem to have caused serious interference in the operation of farm schedules If you favor the Adoption of Daylight Saving Time, Vote "YES” on Proposal A; if you oppose the adoption of Daylight Savir^ from the last Sunday in April to the last Sunday in October, vote "NO “ (66 Barry Students Al Western Michigan Michigan residents comprise nearly >3 percent of Western Michigan University's Fall. 1972 enrollment of 21,128 with 7.1 percent either out-of-state or foreign students A total of 19.MS WMU students are from Michigan There are 166 al WMU from Barry County. Proposal B would legalize abortions under certain conditions The proposed law would allow a licensed medical or osteopathic physician to perform an abortion at the request of the patient if (1) the period of gestation has not exceeded 20 weeks and (2) if the operation is performed in a hospital or other facility licensed by the Department of Public Health 1 A vote of "YES” on this proposal means that you favor the legalization of abortion. A vote of "NO” means that you oppose legalized abortion. Although many socaUed “realistic" arguments can and have been given in favor of legalizing abortion-abortion mills are already operating under cover; neighboring countries have already legalized the process; etc ,-we do not believe this is the proper answer to a problem that has been ever with us. Adoption of this proposal, we believe is a further drift along the road of moral permissiveness that is already blot on our society. Considerably more than the “widespread emotionalism,” mentioned by Circuit Judge Charles S. Kaufman, is involved in this issue. In fact, emotionalism has nothing to do with it. The argument is put forward that the legalizing of abortion is in line with "the new" morality of our times. But what, one might ask, is "new” about this “new morality” about which we hear so much. Something equivalent to this "new morality” was rampant back in the days of the Roman Empire, shortly before the sudden collapse of this once proud, energetic and powerful nation. The Roman Empire was not beaten from without, but rather as the result of moral d6cay from within. Let’s not send the United States down the same route. In our opinion, much more bad than good will follow if Proposal B is adopted. It offers no basic cure for an unfortunate weakness that exists In fact, the moral looseness that it encourages can nevef be rectified by passing a law which says that what has always been rightfully classed as a moral wrong is now all of a sudden morally right In our opinion Proposal B should be defeated [-Voice—i I---------------- OF THEPEOPLE —। Student Symposium—Ninety sophomores from Hastings, Maple Valley, Lakewood, Delton and Middleville gathered at U*ason Sharpe Memorial Hall here Tuesday.

THE HASTINGS BANNER.......... October 1$. IfH To the Editor: Hastings merchants did it again! We were given the green coupon sheet for big discounts from Hastings stores. BIG JOKE One of us bought a $20 sweater from a down-town ladies shop but theywefused to accept the coupon for the 10 percent discount as advertised. When we contacted the Chamber of Commerce they stated that the downtown store was having a big sale and would honor the coupon next week. Another gal bought a dress from another small dress shop listed on the green sheet and was charged the regular price minus the discount, instead of the sale price minus discount. We consider this false ad­ vertising as the sheet states “STOREWIDE” and makes no stipulations about sale prices etc. and definitely states "COUPONS GOOD ONLY DURING OC­ TOBER 9 thru OCTOBER 14." Is it fair for the merchants to change the dates to suit them­ selves? We think they should honor the coupons as stated on the advertisement. And they wonder why we never like to shop at home —incidents like this are the reason. Some local office gals: Sharon Falconer. Lu Bowman, Margret O'Laughlin, Pat Shellington, Lyndy Allen.

Heritage Depots in many old towns are disappearing, along with the passenger train service, and with them go great phase of American life. But not so in Hastings. The old depot which served people entering and leaving the City for decades continues to be a land­ mark, and one which now serves a dual purpose. The Hastings depot remains as a showplace of times gone by. a reminder of days when as many as six trains a day chugged their way through the City along the beautiful Thornapple valley. And it also serves a modem purpose, as offices for attorneys and an accounting firm. Set in the middle of about a third of a city block, the depot looks just about as it did when it was erected in the early 1920s. However, under the ownership of Atty. Richard M. Shuster, who obtained it in March of 1968 under a land exchange deal with the National Bank of Hastings which required church properly along Broadway owned by Atty. Shuster, the building has been repainted and “rejuvenated.” The parking has been surfaced with chipped orick, and the rest of the site has been landscaped, walks have been installed and shrubs, tices, flowers add beauty. The building has a solid cement foundation and floor, and has a brick exterior and interior. U. was built to last, and the roof beams are huge. They style is the same as used for other railroad depots in .Michigan ifi the 1850s. The first railroad In Michigan was about 1847. The building was 4,000 square feel of floor space II is only about 20 feet from the railroad trackswhich still carry freights-but because of its solid construction the noise of the freights doesn't interfere with work in the offices. In fact, the engineers will give an extra “tool" when they roll by and see someone working. “We ralher welcome the sound of the trains and the old at­ mosphere,” Atly. Shuster said The old passenger waiting room is now a reception room, and instead of the old pot-bellied stove there is a replica of the stove or fireplace invented by Benjamin Franklin in 1175-76. The brick in the fireplace came from the old Hastings fire station or City Hall. The room contains old hand-carved furniture and the reception windows resemble ticket windows. The brass bars in the reception windows came from the tellers’ cages in the former National Bank Building. The wainscoting In the reception room is the original quarter-sawed oak and it has the original ceiling. The wood floor in the station master's office is exactly as he left it, including the worn spot where he stood at the ticket window, and even to the spots from the ink he spilled on the floor. The freight scales has been put back into operating conditionpreserved as a conversation piece in the conference room. The Shusters--Mrs. Shuster (Posey) had a great deal to do with the planning have been collecting old railroad memorabilia such as pictures, spike hammers, oil cans and they even have a railroad ice hook used to drag ice down a ramp to the original refrigerator cars. They would appreciate any in­ formation about the building you may have. They have two “flimseys,” which were used to pass messages from ground to train crews. One was given them by Judge Richard Robinson who obtained it from Geoqje Miller who had the depot in Eaton Rapids. Original hardware furnishings from W.A. Hall’s Jefferson Street store, such as bins for nails, have been cut down into book­ cases for the law library. Mr. Hall's huge showcase stands tall in the conference room as a display hutch. The chandeliers were all custom made for the building by Gale Latchaw of Charlotte, and are reproductions or kerosene lights. The law offices provide a working area for attorneys to help give a vital service to the people of modem Hastings They also give people of today a solid reminder of life in Hastings yesterday. ATTY.

Hie Hastings Banner staff begins its new feature on the Accent Page by awarding the first high school student, Tim Crosby, in recognising his scholastic and leadership qualities as ‘Student of the Month.* Son of Rev James and Mrs. Crosby, Tim, 17, is a senior. He ■( TIM CROSBY attended Frost junior high school in Jackson before beginning his freshman year at MV. As graduation closes in, Tim can look back at some fine ac­ complishments in his school activities. This year he is busv as member of Varsity Club, National Honor Society, and treasurer of the Student Council After school activities include membership in the Nashville United Methodist Church Youth Group. Inquiring in the Athletic Dept., you will find out that sports dominates a great deal of Tim's high school fife. He began his freshman year playing football, wrestling, and ’ golf. His sophomore year followed the same pattern. A change occured in — his junior , year as-— he was co­ — --------------captain of the varsity football ‘team placing on the all con­ ference team, then wrestling and he began a new challenge track. This year Tim is a returning letterman and co-captain on the football team and plans to finish out his senior year as an athlete Various classes are keeping Tim studying after practice such as Crafts, Physics, Government, Mass Media, and Minority Groups. Keeping this tough schedule also means keeping up his 3.5 average and his place in the Top Five in a class of 120. “I think it’s a great idea,” Tim replied, when asked what his thoughts were on the new feature. “If a student sees that he may have a chance to be chosen he may try harder scholastically.” Tim also agreed that the way MV chose their student by a teacher-student panel, was a democratic procedure to follow. Tim's after-graduation plans include fathering his education in a small or private college.

See ‘Community Mobilization’ As Hastings ’73 Requirement At their annual planning meeting held in the high school cafeteria Thursday, Oct. 12 members of the Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce selected "Community Mobilization" as the top priority objective for PRIDE ’73, “Promoting our Resources In Developing our Economy." With Lee Bassett, formerly with the State Chamber and now communications specialist of the Greater Detroit Chamber of Commerce as moderator, a small but enthusiastic group of businessmen poured over the basic needs and unanimously agreed that "getting the com­ munity into action through more involvement and participation" rated as the first priority. The five needs as designed by members, are as follows: 1. "Mobilize Community To Involvement.’’ The residents need an awareness of the com­ munity to achieve total com­ munity involvement for total community development. Residents must be recruited to resolve current problems to develop "community pride." 2. “Commercial Develop­ ment." Initiate a program directed at business retention and expansion including new commercial development. It means •promoting our resources in developing our economy." 3. "Sell Hastings." This program will be effort to increase the awareness and image of Hastings to people outside the community. It includes tourism and recreational advantages as well as advertising Hastings as a "pleasant community in which to live. work, shop and visit." 4. "Hastings. . .A Shopping Center." To continue the efforts of the 1972 Task Force on "Hastings, The Barry County Shopping Center" and to im­ plement the community con­ sumer survey. Other areas in­ clude transportation (highways), parking mall, making the central business district unique and different through a store front theme. 5. "Chamber Development And Awareness." To initiate a program in which Chamber members are contacted on a ono to one basis by other Chamber1 members. To keep the flow of communications open by per­ sonal visitation. In this unique delivery aimed at capturing the attention and concentration of his audience, Mr. Bassett raised some thought provoking questions about the need for involvement and the effects of change. He explained the story of "Old Tigh," the 100 foot long dinosaur who outlived his existence merely by not being able to accept and cope with change. Consequently, "Old Tigh’r became extinct in the same way that communities can lose their identity and are not moved by change. "There is little doubt that Hastings is going to change so the ability to adapt is urgent if there is going to be a healthy en­ vironment,” he stated, and told the group "business can con­ structively direct this change." Bassett concluded by saying that “if proper steps are taken to MAKING A POINT—Lee Bassett ol Drtroll Chamber rap. with Ed Cheney, right, over a priority Io gaining community momentum during last week’s Chamber planning session at the high school.

However, the big been beaten twice this year by Coach Jerry Eckman, after a thwarted first half in which two fumbles cost his Hastings High Saxons possible scores, was proud of the way his charges came back in the second half and tied the game at 20-20. The field goal was heartbreaking, but you can’t take anythirfg away from the Saxons. With two big Panther halfbacks running over them, they never quit and finally took command. Coach Eckman says categorically that Bob Ogden has to be as fine a tackle there is in the West Central. Diminutive Terry Traisler comes in for great praise. As the Blue & Gold quarterback, the 5-6, 135-pound junior completed 5 out of 10 passes against Alma for 94 yards. And he did it under more than considerable pressure. Drives to Score—Brad Foltz (44) scored Hastings first touchdown in the Saxons battle with visiting Alma Friday night, going over from the one to make Ihe score 13-6. Foltz also ran the two point conversion to tie the game at 20­ 20.

Twelve plays later the Saxons had 6 points After the ball exchanged hands, Hastings held Alma for a net of twd yards in two [days, then Goetzinger went on a 74 yard touchdown romp.

Hastings forced Alma to punt after the kickoff, and again Quarterback Terry Traister led his Saxons to the goal. The attack included 18 and 32 yard passes from Traister to Foltz, the second one putting the ball on the Alma 9. Stpve Jiles drilled his way the final 4 yards and Foltz smashed for the 2 point conversion and the ball game was tied. Alma got moving for the first lime in the half, and capped its drive with the game winning field goal. Hastings had two drives halted in the first half, the first when Jiles fumbled after a good gain on the Alma 30. The second came on a fumble on a third down handoff on the Alma one.

For young Mike the achievement for him was that he shot his first duck This is near the month, when many years ago. the Pilgrim forefathers were hunting wild turkeys for food and even though the need of nourish­ ment is not the primary motive. Mike now has a belter un­ derstanding of what hunting is all about. Many local adult nimrods will be leaving the end of this week for points west and the reaUy big hunting season. In­ cidentally.

The improvements are scheduled to be completed by the start of the next school year. The site was purchased in 1965 for $8,000 and was intended as the possible location of an elemen­ tary school.

In each ply, the cords are laid at right angles to the tread. If the cord ends were extended, they would all meet at the axle of the wheel, like spokes Hence, the name radial. If radial plies alone formed the body of the tire, its construction would be much limper than conventional tires in which the cords are criss-crossed. But actually, the radial ply tire is much firmer because it has steel belts under the treed. The steel cords in these belts are laid almost circumfrentially forming a hoop which reinforces and stiffens the tread area. The result is a lire with a tread that is firm and sidewalls that are flexible. The bias ply tire, on the other hand, has stiff sidewalls because the cords in each of Its plies run at an angle directly opposite to the angle of the cords in the neighboring ply. lract>M,tkW mlstcMK* 40,000 MILE GUARANTEE A vailable EXCL USIVEL Y In Hastings At...

THE HASTINGS BANNER October 25. 1972 �Youngsters Abandon ‘Trick or Treat Fun to Raise Money for Other Kids EDITORIAL by R. M. C. Voters al the Nov. 7, 1972, election will be asked to approve or reject a Barry County Proposal in regard to raising additional funds for the repair and maintenance of the rather considerable system of bridges within the county, many of which are approach!^ the unsafe stage. At present no funds are available for this purpose . This SpecialMillage Proposition asks “Shall the limitation of the total amount of taxes which shall be assessed against all property in Barry County, Michigan, be increased as provided by law by .05 per cent (one half mill) of assessed valuation as equalized of all property in said Barry County, Michigan, for a period of two years, 1973 and 1974 inclusive for the purpose of providing funds to keep any County Roads or Bridges already built in reasonable repair and in condition reasonably safe and fit for public travel? According to Clarence Longstreet, chairman of the Barry County Road Commission, there are forty-two short span bridges and several large culverts in need of immediate attention. He said that it is becoming necessary to post more and more of these bridges for restricted loadings that would prohibit their use by school buses and heavy farm machinery One bridge in ♦Hope Township and one in Carlton have already been closed to traffic About a third of the money raised by this special tax would revert to cities and villages in the county for similar repair of existing roads and badges within their boundaries. It seems to us that this is definitely an emergency situation. Whether or not the County Commissioners in the past, have made the best possible use of funds at their disposal is beside the question The system of short span bridges in need of repair is a reality. Therefore because this proposition is definitely limited as to millage and time of imposition and is for an emergency condition, which, if not given prompt attention, could lead to a worsening situation involving far greater expenditures than covered by this proposed tax, we feel inclined to vote a somewhat reluctant “ yES“Reluctant because we feel that the present property tax load is high enough and “YES” because we recognise the emergency nature of greater degree of expense the estimated 983,000 to be half mill levy spread over two years. PROPOSAL D that will appear on a special ballot at the Genera) Election, Nov. 7, 1172. has to do with the removal of the present Constitutional Ban against a graduated income lax. But that is only part of the proposal. If passed it would also permit local units to levy a flat rate or graduated income tax. In brief PROPOSAL D would: “Enable the legislature to impose a flat rate or graduated state income tax and TO ENACT LAWS TO PERMIT LOCAL UNITS TO LEVY A FLAT RATE OR GRADUATED INCOME TAX’* The proposed amendment does not specify what local units of government are to be granted the right to levy income taxes on either a flat rate or graduated basis-Thus, it must be assumed that, if the amendment is passed, all local units including county, township, city and incorporated villages would have this right. Thus, it would be entirely possible-even probable-for residents in certain areas of the State to pay income taxes on either a graduate or flat basis (or perhaps a combination of both) to four different units of government -three local and one to the state We also do not fa vor either the State or any of the local units to get into “the graduated tax'* mess. The Federal Income Tax System is a the system has become extremely compliested-so much so, in fact, that assistance of an accountant, familiar with the in trades of the tax law is needed to prepare a return that stands a chance of going un­ challenged But, even “experts'* are not always able to agree on how to interpret the Federal Income Tax Law. Test checks nan by publications and individuals have shown that even nationally-known tax accounting firms can come up with widely different answers to a If Michigan ever adopts a graduated income lax it will mean the creation of a new and extensive bureacracy to administrate the law. forcing on more and more people, the added expense of professional assistance in preparing returns. A flat rate tax is easy to understand, easy to estimate and easyAo administer. Why not keep it that way? Differentials for relief of lower income groups can be adjusted through exemptions This would seem to be an equitable system for all concerned and an augmented new bureaucracy would not have to stands can be increased to produce more revenue. Proposal C and ProposalDan? so vague and indefinite, that we believe they both should be defeated There is even some question as to how modi relief, if any, would be given to the tax on property It must be kept in mind, too, that the objective of property tax relief does not mean a reduction in total taxes but merely a redistribution of the toad. The probability is that this “total toad" will be increased If so, we should make sure that any revised system will, in fact as well as intent, bring some real relief to the property tax. We believe this proposal should be defeated by a vote of “NO” Proposal E, if passed, will allow the State to “Borrow 3386.000.000 00 for tuition payments and bonuses to Vietnam and other E would borrow the sum of 3366.000.000 0 and other conflicts with tuition “Allow the Slate of Michigan to the State to secure the said amount and shall pledge the full faith and credit of the State for the payment of principal and interest.

Oct. >14,I feel it is my duty to “dear the air" which has clouded around some Hastings stores as a result of that irogram To the local office gals whose say this: It is difficult to pinpoint just why the stores involved in your cases refused to cooperate with the INDUSTRY WEEK program; either there was a misun­ derstanding on the part of IN­ DUSTRY WEEK committee or a misjudgment on the part of the merchants involved in your in­ cidents. However, your reference to “Hastings merchants’* instead of “oneof two Hastings merchants'* is misleading r .for the most part, “Hastings merchants*' were very happy to redeem your coupons. Also I would like to appeal to your sense of fairness on this issue Would you really expect any store anywhere to give you discounts from their sale prices? These stores in question did have bonafide sales on at that time Obviously somebody goofed, but in any case these merchants should not be expected to give In closing let me say that response by both industrial workers and the merchants to this year’s INDUSTRY WEEK points toward a bigger and better celebration next year. In spite of incidents this year the com­ munity will still solicit your response next year. . .not for the committee along, not for you alone, not for one merchant alone but for all of us together Sincerely, John C. Johnston To the Editor: This is God's answer to the “Abortionist.** The life of the flesh is in the blood. (Leviticus 17:11) It is the life of all flesh. (Verse 14) At the beginning of the third month of pregnancy, the human fetus is about 34 inches in length and weighs about 14 ounces. At this time the blood begins to form in the bone-marrow, the major glands become clearly defined, and the sex of the fetus can be distinguished from the ap­ pearance of the external genital organs. By the fourth month, the fetus is 5.6 inches in length and weighs about seven ounces The face looks human and movement is definitely discernible. (Quoted from Funk and Wagnall's, 1949 encyclopedia). The proposal to be voted on, in November, 1972, would permit an abortion by a licensed physician in a licensed hospital, clinic or out-patient facility through the first 20 weeks of pregnancy Taking the word of God. that the life is in the blood, and doctors would be destroying life in the womb after the second month of pregnancy. Two months of pregnancy, when blood is formed in the bone-marrow is 8 weeks and 6 days. Take note that the proposal states abortion will be allowed up to twenty weeks. Dare you vote “yes" to destroy life. I wrote this article after much thought and research Respectfully yours. Arthur T.

Perhaps instead of listening to campaign rhetoric and promises one should look at the past record. This is really the best way to determine a can­ didates true worth. As an individual who has worked for a living all his life, I am vitally concerned with those things that affect both agriculture and labor. The National Farmers Union has compiled a box score of Senate and House voting records for 1971. On 11 major issues in the Senate, McGovern voted correct from the Farmers Union view point 11 times. The Nixon Ad­ ministration was opposed to many of these measures. Among them, withholding of school lunch funds by the ad­ ministration to exclude many children from the program. From the standpoint of labor, the period Nixon spent as a member of Congress were characterized by a favorable of less than 16 percent. In the same period, McGovern voted for labor 93 percent. As president Nixon has placed controls on wages and while wages have been controlled General Motors has made record profits. While wages were frozen, big business got an 11 billion dollar tax break. Nixons remedy for inflation has not been higher taxes for those with the ability to pay, but unemployment for the working man. Unemployment in Michigan rose 182 percent under Nixon. Inflation has continued almost unchecked. What is the Nixon record on campaign promises? Rep. Riegle says in his book that Nixon told him, he (Nixon) would end the war in 6 months. He also told the American people, "Anyone who couldn’t end the war in 4 years didn't deserve another chance.''

If you are an employer, there’s a way you can put that money in your pocket. Hire someone on welfare. Pay him (or her) 15.000 a year. (Of course you’re not obligated to pay this, but the 15.000 would earn you the ll.ooo tax credit.) The Revenue Act of 1971 offers the tax credit to employers to help people on welfare move into useful jobs-and get off the welfare rolls. Actually, the tax credit amounts to 20 percer I of the cash Kote for . wages paid the welfare employee during the first 12 months he works for you. You don’t get the credit until the employee has worked for you for 12 months. There are some ifs, and buts attached to this tax bonus After you’ve kept the employee 12 months and received the tax credit, you're obligated to keep him at least 1 year more If you fire him without cause the first year, you don’t gel the tax credit. If you fire him without cause the second vear. vou have to pay back the credit you got If the emotovee quits. . .or becomes disabled, or you have to fire him for misconduct, you get your tax credit. The job you give to the welfare person must be a new position or a vacancy. In other words, you can’t fire somebody and replace him with a welfare person just to get the tax credit. You’re required to pay the welfare person the same wages you would anybody else in that job. See Marshall B. Kindy, Manpower Specialist with the Michigan Employment Security Commission.

October 25. 1»72 By Chuck Newell Thucnapple-Kellogg High School A Graduated Income Tax. for those of you who don't know, is a tax that requires a family or an individual to pay the state ac­ cording to their income. So a lower income family would pay a lot less than a higher income family. The state of Michigan now has a flat income tax, which means all families, no matter if they’re rich or poor, pay at the same rate. This hurts the lower income families more than those of higher income. That is why a Graduated Income Tax for the State of Michigan would be better for the people and be better for the State. This issue will be brought up at the Nov. 7 election. So the Seniors, who are 18, or soon will be. decide on how you will vote!

Schieffer, 36. Cloverdale Road, was injured and Mr. and Mrs. Alfred K. Howes of Grand Rapids were in intensive care at Leila Hospital after a car-pickup truck accident which occured about 10:20 a.m. Sunday, Oct. 22, lust north of Dowling on M-37, Deputy Jerry Plank reported. Deputy Plank said Mrs. Howe was driving south when three deer leaped onto the highway. She avoided two but one hit the hood of her car. She swerved into the path of Schieffer's pickup. Schieffer, who works for SmithHammond in Battle Creek, was about a mile from his home, when the crash occurred. He was returning from Leila Hospital where he had a checkup for an injured finger. Schieffer had a finger cut off in July by a tractor mower, and about four weeks ago had surgery on the finger. That was the finger that he hurt in Sunday’s crash. With him at the time was a nephew, Tom Schieffer, who was going home with him to go hunting with his cousins. He was unhurt. The pickup was totaled. Seek Wage Hikes from County Negotiations continue between the Barry County Board of Commissioners and the Deputy Sheriff's Association and the Courthouse Employees Association. On Monday. Oct. 16th the associations presented their proposals to the Finance and Negotiations Committees. The Deputy Sheriff's group asked for a 20 percent pay hike while the Courthouse Employees requested an S812.M yearly pay boost. The Deputy Sheriffs Association issued a written news release following that meeting in which they stated, "to remain in our present position means to accept things as they are, to acknowledge that we are satisfied with the present level of crime in Barry County. If we accept this attitude of retrogression, then we are ad­ mitting defeat, and are adding problems to those already in existence." Finance Chairman Monty Bennett said Monday that the Finance and Negotiating Com­ mittees met Friday, Oct. 20th to work on a counter proposal to the two associations. Bennett said following that meeting that the "primary concern of the Com­ mittees is that we are still under Phase II and should adhere to those guidelines The most we should allow is a 5.5 percent increase unless they go along with a longer contract such as on a 2-3 year basis in which case we might be able to negotiate somewhat higher." Bennett said the Deputy Sheriff's Association in par­ ticular presented a large number of additional requests Including double-time pay in addition to holiday pay for deputies working on holidays and increased In­ surance coverage to include major medical insurance as well as the cost of prescriptions. Bennett indicated his com­ mittee is checking into these areas, however he said several of the requests are for items which are under the jurisdiction of the department head. Therefore he indicated Sheriff Morl Campbell will meet with the entire Board of Commissioners at their Tuesday, Oct. 24th .meeting for further discussion.

Streby County Extension Director CORN vs. HAY Here is a note for dairymen: if you have good land, raise more corn silage and less hay. But you better be a com grower. If hay is your strong suit, stick with it. But raise enough corn silage to get the full value of the protein from your alfalfa. Michigan State University Scientists came to these con­ clusions after studying feed costs for three different Holstein herds They found that a farmer with good cropland can reduce his cost by $31 per cow by going from a 30 percent to a 70 percent com silage ration. But you're able to raise good alfalfa and aren't too good at raising corn, slay with the alfalfa. Cows will milk just as well on a properly supplemented "all-alfalfa" ration as they will on a "all-com silage" ration.. .or any combination in between. COW FEED COST! Cows eat about $400 worth of feed per year. That's the average feed cost for cows and replacement stock on southern Michigan dairy farms participating in Telfarm, Michigan State University's computerized record keeping service. And this is the amount dairymen would have to pay if they bought all their feed. However, dairymen raise about three-fourths of their feed and buy the rest. Feed costa per cow can range from $300 to $600 in the same herd. . .because high producing cows eat more feed than do low producers. "NUTS" TO SHORTED DAYS Shorter daylight, not cooler weather, causes squirrels to increase the "take-home" to as many as 300 nuts a night. •Activities largest ever this year, according to the Michigan Crop Reporting Service. A larger production than last year is expected for seven of Michigan’s 10 major field crops. The soybean and com forecast are for production increases of 40 and 17 percent, respectfully, from 1971. •ABRY FARM CALENDAR Ort. 31-Nav. l-Twn 4H Le*derVslp School Camp Kett Nov l.-Dokv BuHding Open House.

Upon referral through the social services department which acts as a 'clearing point" for persons requiring aid and assistance, Red Cross provides such essentials as new shoes, clothing, groceries and health needs to families whose homes are destroyed by fire or flood. Funneling requests for this type of assistance through the social services office gets the needy family to the proper relief agency more quickly and conserves United Fund dollars by FERRIS Register of deeds Your Support Will Be Appreciated- VOTE REPUBLICAN At the Coming Election eliminating duplication of effort. by seyeraT agencies. During the ice stann of 1972. Ban? County Red Crou made available canteen services in the’ event families needed to take temporary lodging in the school gym while their homes could not be heated. Emergency lodging was also provided by the local chapter. In June of this year large areas of Pennsylvania and South Dakota were flooded and im­ mediately the American National Red Cross was on the scene. Barry County Chapter made a special appeal in the hope we could do our part in helping provide the massive rescue and rehabilitation effort required when these natural disasters struck. We hope Barry County never needs Red Cross mobilization on this scale, but by supporting the Red Cross through our local chapter, resources are being maintained that could save lives and reduce destruction right here at home, if the need arose.

The gift a laborer with a grade school education, an illiterate from a little two room home, has as much to give as a professional person who owns a country estate. Each makes the same sacrifice, less than an hour of ones time a few times each year, to give a pint of blood, but the reward is great as you roll down your sleeve ana leave the friendly blood bank. The person with a gallon donor pin or with a first donation card realizes that to some ill or injured neighbor in Pennock Hospital this is the gift of healing and life itself. Our body easily replaces the pint of blood given to the Red Cross but medical science with all of its technology cannot make a drop of human blood.

October S. 1>T2.......... 41 �Sheriff’s Deputies Outline Factors for Negotiating Working Agreement Sgt Dave Wood, president at the Barry County Dtebuty Sheriff's Association, and others on the bargaining committee have met with members of the Barry County Board of Com­ missioners presenting them with a list of bargaining factors for the 1973 working agreement. ■Hie present contract expires Dec 31 Sgt Wood said that, as in the past, 'the Association is acting as the sole bargaining agent for the Barry County Sheriff’s Department, in an effort to procure better working con­ ditions. and to provide additional, advanced training so as to im­ prove law enforcement within Barry County. "It is the desire of the Association to improve the law enforcement capabilities of the department, which in turn will better facilitate and meet the ever increasing demands for such enforcement in this com­ munity. In the event the demands submitted to the Commissioners become a reality, it is believed that the department shall have the necessary means at hand to efficiently serve the community. "The pressures of added responsibility, an increase in the need for-advanced technical knowledge, and the need for more versatile capabilities caused by the increasing crime rate, recent court decisions, and the demands for more service to the public make it imperative that law enforcement move ahead. To remain in our present position means to accept things as they are. and to acknowledge that we are satisified with the present level of crime in Barry County. If we accept this attitude of retrogression, then we are admitting defeat, and are adding problems to those already in existence. "we are all aWare that "Good Government costs money," and this includes the field of law enforcement. However, if we adopt a progressive attitude towards law enforcement, we feel sure (hat in the “long tdew" we shall be saving money. Moving forward means that men with experience and training will certainly require an increase in pay, overtime pay, holiday pay and a shift differential in pay for personnel working abnormal hours These are some of the benefits we are asking the Commissioners to consider. The Association is also asking for an increase in its present life in­ surance policy, and better and more comprehensive hospitalization insurance. “In an effort to prevent the loss of trained and experienced personnel, we are also asking for a pension plan that will en­ courage men to consider a career with this department. "Many times, officers are called upon to provide services beyond their regular tours of duty such as attending training sessions, appearing at public meetings, conducting training programs, and providing ser­ vices • which the department needs but lacks the equipment, time and manpower to do. Quite frequently, sorely needed equipment for use in the normal line of duty has to be provided by the individual officer. Ac­ cordingly. we are also asking that some means of recompense be made available to pay for travel expenses, and reim­ bursement for lost and-or damaged personal equipment Brignall Seeks Voters Here Friday a whole load of laundry at WASH KING * used in the line of-duty and for the benefit of the department. • "Since the efficiency of this department is limited by the lack of certain specific factors, we have asked for the procurement of these factors to enhance our efficiency. However, even if these factors are provided, we still must have sufficient per­ sonnel to assign men to the area where they shall be able to function with their equipment and training. This means that new positions must be made available in the department, together with the men to fill these positions. Based on the foregoing, we are asking for additional positions and additional per­ sonnel. "The Barry County Deputy Sheriffs’ Association has outlined in its Constitution the main ob­ jectives, scope, and purpose for its existence. It is dedicated to the proposition of promoting a high standard of professionalism within the Association, which among other things, includes service to the people of the State of Michigan generally and specifically to the people of Barry County,” Sgt. Wood concluded. COIN LAUNDRY You "can get the entire Family wash done here for just a few coins! More and more smart house 'wives are bringing it here! NOVEMBER 7th VISIT BARRY CO.

Na»eU»ee‘ ». l*lt' �Every Week is Education Week in Hastings Area School System No special observances were planned at Hastings High School in recognition of American Education Week (Oct. 22-28) according to Supt Dick Guen­ ther. "Hastings places emphasis on Education Day" during Michigan Week. However, parents have the privilege anyday to visit our school and 1 wish they ^ould more often." Within the last decade great strides have been made in education. "The exact sciences like biology and physics are always changing because of technological advances. The greatest emphasis must be on a strong K-12 career education, especially vocational education. Hasting? must and will align itself with one of the skill centers either at Grand Rapids or Battle Creek.” A larger elective curriculum has become a part 'of the Hastings system to give the student an exposure to a variety of opportunities. Supt. Guenther feels in the final two years this should be narrowed to specific courses in the junior and senior years. "A student who Is going to be an 15% off our entire stock of made-to-measure draperies. engineer should know and take courses suited for that purpose." Education has taken another added dimension within the last several years in adult education. Hastings, Lakewood and Maple Valley have joined in this venture with Lakewood the sponsoring school for purposes of State reinbursement. "The response to this program has been great," says Supt. Guenther. r'The program has a tremendous completion rate with over 70 adults receiving their high school diploma last year.

Al the conclusion of World War 1 (the war that was to end all wars) we shortly began sending vast sums of money to Germany, ostensibly for the purpose of reconstruction. Events later proved it was diverted to building up the huge war machine which they never would have been able to do in such a short space of time without our financial aid. So indirect, at least, we are responsible for World War II. Then when that war ended with what we considered a victory for our side, we decided that since so many Russian cities had been destroyed, and their country devastated to some extent, while we had been spared such desolation we certainlv should come to their aid. We did by loaning them some forty billion cost of millions. And the cost in dollars is not the greatest tragedy. It is the thousands of young lives which were sacrificed for no purpose. dollars, no part of which has been repaid The loans helped to in­ crease their potential for war, until now we are in danger of becoming a second rate power. Now in this election year both candidates seem to agree on one issue at least namely the necessity of building up at the cost of millions, that which we have recently destroyed at the What has been accomplished of any value to any nation? I feel strongly that if any future administration ever considers sending our boys anywhere to fight, except in defense of our own country there should be a general uprising, not just a few dissenters, but a whole nation in protest that it shall never happen again Mrs. Minnie Williams To the Editor: On Nov. 7 voters will have an opportunity to repeal Michigan's 124 year old abortion law. Any woman who can afford it can get an abortion today. The indigent woman is the one who is caught by the present prohibition on abortion. With legalization in many states, the cost is coming down so the poor as well as the affluent can make the decision. The people attacking the referendum to repeal the law prohibiting abortion are assuming that ethics and justice are all on their side. TTiis is not necessarily true. There are times when an abortion is a more ethical decision than the con­ tinuation of a pregnancy.

Because of the fact that Federal Revenue Sharing has entered the local picture and Barry County will receive funds from this source, the need for passage of Barry County Proposal to assess a special property lax of one half mill for two years to raise money for bridge repair is no longer acute. In fact, it is possible that extra tax money of this sort may not be needed at all. Since the purpose of Federal Revenue Sharing is to help reduce local tax loads on property, we now see no reason for approving this one half mill tax until its need has been definitely established. Therefore, in view of these above-mentioned facts, we are changing our own vote on this County Proposal from a "reluctant YES to a non-reluctant "NO." Another Presidential Election Year Campaign is in its final days with oratory giving way to the all-important ballot box. So­ Remember the date-Tuesday, Nov. 7-Polling Booths will be open from 7:00 a.m. to 8.00 p.m which should provide a convenient in­ terval for each of us to devote the brief time required to cast a ballota prime duty of citizenship. We have to chuckle when we hear references to the present campaign as "The dirtiest ever." Our memory of Presidential Campaigns goes back to 1916 (although we were not eligible to vote at the time) when Woodrow Wilson defeated Charles Evans Hughes in a real "cliff hanger." Due to lack of a rapid communication network such as we have today, the final results were not known until several days after the polls closedend in the interval, claims and counter claims came through at a fast pace, keeping everyone in suspense. But, the point is that the Wilson-Hughes campaign and each one that has followed at four-year intervals has in variably been referred to as "The dirtiest ever." Presidential campaigns seem to follow a set pattern. At the outset, each side professes a desire to keep things at a "high level" as did Uncoln and Douglas during their historic series of debates in the Civil War Era Then, inevitably, the oratory heats up with appeals irected at emotions rather than reason—each side blaming the other ‘or "stooping to personalities " As a matter of fact, if you take time to read and study the LincolnDouglas Debates, it is evident that even they were not of consistently "high level." Both men were the greatest political orators of the preCivil War Era and knew and used all the tricks at their command to influence and captivate their audiences. Both men were persona] friends who enjoyed the stimulation of personal confrontation, but one would never have guessed that fact from the sharp oratorical barbs they directed at one another during the debates The current Presidential Campaign has. in our opinion, been about average in personalities and emotional appeal. A part of the McGovern strategy has been to hurl sharp barbs at President Nixon in order to get hun angry enough to "t$ke the stump" and possiblv come through with heated and ill-advised statements that could be turned into lush fodder for the opposition. So far, Mr. Nixon, has not taken the bait and is probably a sufficiently seasoned campaigner to avoid such pitfalls. Z In resorting to his tactic, Mr McGovern is merely following along in an election year campaign pattern that has been standard since before the turn of the century. In adopting this course, however. Mr. McGovern may be doing himself more harm than good in that he is undercutting his own self-professed image as an idealist and reformer out to elevate American politics to new high standards of performance. The Senator from South Dakota to date has merely been giving us a bit of "the same old routine," neither worse nor better than the usual standard of American Presidential Year Campaign politics. FYankiin D. Roosevelt avoided personal confrontations with opponents during his years in the White House and so did Dwight D. Eisenhower and neither of them suffered as a result During the past two weeks, we have reviewed the five State Proposals and the one County Proposal that will be up for vote. Whether or not you agree with the opinions expressed, we hope they have helped to stimulate some independent thought on the issues. In brief, our conclusion was that Proposal A should be passed and that proposals B, C. D and E should be defeated On the County Proposal we nave decided to vote a reluctant “Yes" as being the better of two unhappy choices.

Green St. Hastings, Ml. 49058 �To the Editor: As a representative of a “downtown ladies shop”, I would like to answer the group of "local office gals" who were unhappy with their shopping during the "Industry Week." A representative of the Hastings Chamber of Commerce called on us, and after explaining the program, our manager, Mrs. Yvonne Allen, expressed that she felt "it was a good idea." However, she did not make any commitment because she knew we were promoting our 63rd Anniversary Sale during the same period and this promotion was far greater than the 10 percent discount the "Salute to Industry" was promoting. As we did not commit Gittleman’s for the "Industry Week" promotion, we were very surprised to see our name on the list of "10 percent discounters". The representative of the Chamber of Commerce took it upon himself to include us in the list We were not aware of this until the coupons started coming in. We had made no plans for the 10 percent discount, we were unprepared, and therefore unable to participate. When the Chamber of Com­ merce stated that the coupon would be honored the following week, they were again taking it upon themselves to make the commitment. WE NEVER AGREED TO HONOR THE COUPONS AT A LATER DATE We pride ourselves in the merchandise we handle, the way we serve the public, and the way we conduct our business. We try to have THE BEST PROMOTIONS IN HASTINGS. However, these promotions come from our ability to select wanted and desirable merchandise at the best possible prices AND NOT FROM AN UNAUTHORIZED COMMITMENT BY THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE Signed J.A. Graulau Vice President GITTLEMAN S, INC. To the Editor: The president again reiterates his declaration of no amnesty for draft avoiders and states that amnesty would break faith with draftees who fought in Viet Nam. One whose picture heads the ballot column under which the president seeks reelection granted amnesty to those who not only did not fight for United States but who, in addition, took up arms against this country. Nothing was said about breaking faith with those who fought at Gettysburg and elsewhere. Another of those most highly regarded by the Republican party, when told after the ApEmattox surrender that many d used their own horses in cavalry attacks against United Slates, ordered that they be allowed to keep their horses for spring plowing. Comparable cases today would be those of youths who went, not to Canada or Sweden to refrain from killing, but boys, if any, who would have gone to Viet Nam to fight against United States. Why should not the example of two of the most honored Republican leaders be followed as regards boys committing the lesser, negative half of deeds for which those histdVic leaders granted full amnesty?

Harry County By Arthur J. Steeby County Extension Director Producers Profit Prospects Recently, swine producers have looked at favorable profit margins with average barrow and gilt prices running in the $26­ 128 per cwt. range during July to September 1872. Even if we deduct I 60-1.80 per cwt. to reflect (he weight of sows in marketings, returns look excellent when compared to production costs of $20.50 to $21.50 But. according to the USDA's September 1972 Hogs and Pigs report, farrowing intentions for September-November are up 2 percent relative to a year earlier figures and December February intentions are up 7 percent. What are the implications of these estimated intentions for profit prospects in 1973? If intentions materialize and producers market at comparable weights, marketings will be up ac­ cordingly over a year earlier in February-May, and in JuneAugust, 1973, respectively. But, what are some further im­ plications of a 7 percent increase in marketings? Roughly, a 1 percent increase in slaughter results in a 1.5 percent reduction in price if there is no change in demand That would imply $23.70 per cwt in midsummer 1973 when related to an average sale price of $26.50 in midsummer 1972. Recent demand shifts ap­ pear to be on the order of $1.00 increase per year; thus. $24.70 is a plausible forecast for mid­ summer 1973. Since part of our forecast assumes that the hog cycle will be as regular as in the past 15 years, let's look back to a com­ parable period in the hog cycle in 1960. when there was a 3 percent increase in farrowing intentions for the December 1969-February 1970 quarter; the pig crop ac­ tually increased 4 percent. For the March-May 1970 quarter, farrowing intentions were up 8 percent; the pig crop was up 12 Krcent. Now. that sounds much e our recent 2 percent and 7 percent projected farrowing increase To continue our study of history, what happened next in 1970? The impact of the March­ May farrowings drove prices down to the break-even point by September. Furthermore, JuneAugust intentions were 17 per­ cent above the previous year; 14 percent more hogs actually hit the market. Profit and loss statements fell into the red when the pigs hit the market. Whefre are we today? Hog prices can fall by $3 to $4 per cwt. below midsummer *73 forecasts before the break-even price is reached. If a 1 percent increase in supply results in a $1.50 decline in price, pork producers can onlystand another 2.0 to 2.6 percent production increase above current intentions (DecemberFebruary intentions up 7 per­ cent) before the increased marketings bring only a break­ even price. Thus, adding this 2.0 to 2.6 percent to the 7 percent, we see that March-May breedings shouldn't exceed 10 percent above the previous year if pig farmers are to avoid red ink. A large increase would drive returns below costs, just as seen in 1970. Beyond that the ex­ pansion trend to maintain per capita levels of consumption should not exceed 4 to 1 percent annually. One alternative is to Increase demand for pork in a dramatic manner but the record does not^rggest much optimism in this respect. •Activities Grades such as these fit: 10-10*30 9-14-42 3-7 if50 Oct. 3IN9V. 1~T«cn4H LMdmhlp School.

State xs (Next to Saving, & Loan) ' * a e Gulf & Western Industries, Inc., which controls E.W. Bliss, reported higher sales and record net earnings from operations for both the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended July 31. Continued strength in the company's services, consumer goods and leisure time operations, plus strong per­ formances from its natural resources companies, enabled GAW to surpass the previous earnings record established in fiscal 1968, according to Charles G. Bluhdorn, chairman, and David N. Judelson, president. Net operating earnings for the three months ended July 31, 1*72, totaled 119.3 million, equal to 92 cents a share. This was an in­ crease of 43 percent over the >13.5 million or 63 cents a share reported in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1971. Sales for lhe fourth quarter were >450 million compared with >407 million for the same three months of the previous year. For the full fiscal year, net operating earninss rose 26 percent to >69.6 million, eoual to $3.31 a share, on sales of >1.67 billion. This compared with >55.3 million, or >2.61 a share, on sales of >1.57 billion a year earlier. In leisure time, Paramount's motion picture "The Godfather" became one of the largestgrossing films of all time. During the period from its world premiere on March 16, 1972, to the end of the company's fiscal year. "The Godfather'r brought in more than >50 million in net film rentals, and the motion picture should make a strong contribution to fiscal 1973 results. But the leisure time activities of Gulf A Western go beyond just one movie, or movies in general. Paramount once again was the second largest supplier of prime­ time television programming to the three national networks. Famous Players, Ltd., Canada’s largest theater chain in which Gulf & Western has a 51 percent interest, turned in another im­ pressive performance. The consumer goods com­ panies also contributed record performances. The Food Products Company produced record sugar crops in both Florida and the Dominican Republic, and continued to develop its citrus, cattle and tourism businesses Consolidated Cigar, which markets cigars under such world famous names as Dutch Masters, Muriel and El Producto, enjoyed another fine year and further enhanced its position as the world's largest cigar manufacturer. The only segment of Gulf & Western’s business that lagged behind fiscal 1971 was manufacturing. "In general.” the two executives noted, "manufac­ turing has been the last segment to recover from the recent recession, particularly the capita) goods area. However, order backlogs have been in­ creasing. and predictions of increased spending by industry for new’ plant and equipment and inventories, bodes well for the manufacturing companies that we operate."

THE HASTINGS BANNER......... November 1. 1972.......... a । . fi'i'S/./.U i\ .Mr**. . �Rare Grandfather Clock Graces Vermontville Home A nine-foot J. Condliff Regulator clock graces the living room of the Wilbur Marsh home, 188 East Main street in Ver­ montville. There are only three such Grandfather clocks in the United States, one of them is in the Boston Museum, and the other is in Maine The one in the Marsh home has a burled walnut case, mercury pendulum, a 16-inch dial, silver on copper, a separate second dial and a sweep minute hand. About 10 years ago Erank Walker of Clayton retired. He had been a garage mechanic who later turned his garage into a roller skating rink Retirement included spending winters in Florida, tait it wasn't enough to satisfy this man who had been active all his life. So when his daughter, Mrs. Kay Marsh suggested he come to Ver­ montville to go “junking" he look her up on it. Now he is a full-fledged antique dealer, a more dignified title for those who seek out relics, castoffs and obsolete items. He deals mostly in old furniture, and now his wife is almost as en­ thusiastic about antiques as he is. Among Walker’s many pur­ chases was this beautiful Grandfather clock. The clock was purchased in May 1966 from the Loveland Estate in Jackson. The Lovelands owned the dock for approximately 20 years. At the time Walker bought* the clock it did not run In September of 1966 the clock was put up for sale for $2,500 but there were no takers. The clock sat in a barn al the Walker home until December, 1967, when he took it to the Ella Sharp Museum in Jackson with Woodcraft AMERICAN GlffS Ch<M»sr from two North Carolina lines tbeautifullv finished) Gift Shop 315 IN. Michigan Stools, spice racks, spoon holders, recipe boxes, mirrors, shelves, trays. clocks, jewel boxes, end the understanding they get it repaired, at his expense, and then he would give the clock to the Museum. Five years later, in July 1972, he returned to the Museum to learn the clock had never been touched, ttwas then he called his daughter.^ say if she wanted it. to come after it. The big nine-foot clock was transported to Vermontville in the back of a pickup truck, with a borrowed “camper cover” in case of rain. And rain it did. Hard, zfrqm Bellevue to Ver­ montville. Luckily the clock was not damaged. The Marsh family loved the old big clock-even i( it didn’t run. Every day, as Mrs Marsh walked past the clock, she gave the pendulum a gentle nudge. For weeks this 'continued. Nothing happened. Then one day. early in September s miracle! The pendulum kept on ticking away. The daily bit of en­ couragement paid off. The dock now keeps perfect time. It is wound twice a week. The Walkers might have been templed to have the Grandfather clock moved into their own home in Clayton, except their ceilings weren't high enough. The Marshes manage the Vogt mony more. Minte/eii in ftu >e MADE BY Funeral home in Vermontville which is a big old house with ceilings of adequate height to accommodate thia beautiful dock. About 1871 or 72 a wholesale jeweler of Maiden Lane imported three J. Condliff Regulators from Uverpool, England. The first one was sold to a Mr. Lamb, jeweler, of Worchester, Mass. Altho history is sketchy concerning this clock, it appears after Mr. 1 jimb's death the clock was seen in an office on State street in Bangor. Maine, and eventua was moved to a Boston Museum. The second dock was pur­ chased by W.J. Weeks of Bangor. Me. He too was a jeweler. In 1873 a man by the name of Adolph Pfaff went to work for Mr. Weeks. In a letter written in January 1929 by Pfaff to the Keystone Publishing Company of Philadelphia he stated that Mr Weeks died and Pfaff succeeded him, and became owner of the Condliff Regulator. Of his clock Mr. Pfaff wrote: “The movement in my clock is very large and lhe plates very heavy. everything is made very accurate and of the finest finish. But Mr. Condliff did ndt have the right proportions in the mercurial pendulum, r had a new pendulum made by E Howard Co. of Boston and now it sometimes will run three or four months and not vary more than two or three seconds." Pfaff also said the price of the Regulator was $500. He also said he did not know what had become of the third clock. Pfaffs letter to the Keystone Publisher was noted by a J.J. Fanning who on Feb. 22, 1929, wrote to Pfaff. Fanning said: “Twelve years ago I stopped into a little repair shop in Jackson owned by a man named Jenkowsky, where I discovered a wonderful clock poked off in a corner. I asked him where he fdbnd this wonderful regulator. He said that when W.W. Childs, who was one of Jackson’s leading jewelers, went out of business he bought the entire stock. I ask him if he wished to sell this regulator and after considerable dickering lie made a price which 1 ac­ cepted.’’ Il turned out the “dickering period" continued for ten years. Mr. Fanning had the clock cleaned and set up in his home, and during the process the name of J Condliff, Liverpool, was found in small letters on the inside brass case. There are no records available which state where the clock was during lhe early years, nor how it showed up in Jackson. The letters of both Pfaff and Fanning were tucked inside the clock when Mr. Walker bought it, along with a note written in March, 1936, by Fanning which reads: Property of John J. Fanning and Winifred Shoemaker Fanning, Jackson: Purchased from heirs of Jenkowsky Jewelers. This clock was lost for 30 vears. I discovered it ten years before they would sell to me." There is small chance the Condliff Regulator will ever become Tost" again. Il is very much “al home" in the Marsh residence, and is indeed a con­ versation piece to everyone who sees it.

Sat. �ARMCHAIR ATHLETE by Buzz Youngs Michigan’s firearm deer season is just two weeks away, and hundreds of Barry County hunters are preparing for the annual trek into the northland, while many others will remain right here at home, to stalk the wiley whitetails when the season opens at 7 a.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 15. In the UP. and northern half of the Lower Peninsula, only rifles and shotguns may be used, but no rim-fire .22 cal. or 5 MMM rifles pistols or revolvers; or auto-loading rifle or shotgun that can hold more than six shells in both barrel and magazine. The six-shell limit doesn’t apply to slide, lever or bolt action guns. In our area, only shotguns and 44 cal. or larger muzzle-loading rifles may be used. Russell Rounds, manager of the Barry Slate Game Area, is hoping successful hunters will check in with him, with either lheirantler-lcsskills or bucks. His headquarters on the Yankee Springs Road has a sign out in front. Those having their deer checked at any DNR station will receive a free shoulder patch which says: “Successful Deer Hunter-Michigan Department of Natural Resources." Conservation Officer Brent Willison reports that the pheasant opener in these parts was “very slow. There wasn’t much action in Barry County." About the only good reports came from Berrien County where there are lots of birds and lots of hunters. With the advent of cold weather there’s been more deer movement-Barry had 16 car­ deer accidents from Oct. 1 to Oct. 29. Drivers must be on the alert. With small game hunters in the field, along with the rutting season, the deer are really moving. Duck hunting has been pretty good, especially when tem­ peratures dropped bringing rain and even snow. There was real good local light action. Only a few hearty souls have been fishing on Gun Lake, but they’re catching fish. Willison suggests that you bird hunters concentrate on partridge or woodcock. “Stick to the small creek bottoms," Brent says. "There’s where you should have the best chance of getting the birds out." With the falling of the leaves, squirrel hunting has been much better. Along the Sidelines: Lakewood Coach Bill Chinery lost a heart­ breaker to Lowell Friday, 12-3, but he paid tribute to Lowell as a "good ball club. The victory was no fluke." Lakewood’s Doug Reed was the big rusher, and he just 40 yards in nine carries. tt Cramer was the Vikina’s outstanding defensive man, with 19 tackles. Brad Catlin had 10. Jeff Bosworth was also credited with a fine defensive game, along with Jerry Kimball, sophomore middle guard. Lakewood gained 115 yards, Lowell just 84. Lakewood was penalized 125 yards, Lowell 65. ' Hastings Coach Jerry Eckman was a happy man again Friday night after the 27-6 win over Mason. His charges have been handling their opponents early touchdowns, but have been able to come back. Coach Eckman praised reserve sophomore quarterback Steve SkedgeB’s defensive work: “He’s getting better every game.’’ Steve Greenfield was back after missing three games to make a big difference. Ends Delbert Moore and Jack Hull did a good job and Daryl Barnum was particularly fine on defense. Jeff Bishop is great game after game, and so Eckman goes on and on.. . E letterwinner at Michigan in 1939­ 40-41 and formerly an assistant athletic director at Iowa, has been named director of programs by Michigan Athletic Director E>on Canham. Robert is a brother to our own Rudy Flora of 1738 N. Broadway, Hastings. Robert will have administrative duties and supervise the Michigan ice rink. A native of Muskegon and former bead football coach at Niles, Flora spent 20 years in college athletics. He was a freshman football coach at Michigan State, an assistant On the Washington State staff and an assistant under Forest Eyakhevski at Iowa. He was a classmate of Canham. He was in the real estate business in Petoskey before accepting Canhanvs offer. “I’m certainly pleased to be back in athletics. It was unexpected, but a most in­ teresting challenge for me,” Robert said. Congratulations go to Coach Bruoe McDowell and his HHS cross country team The Saxon harriers finished 8th in the regional, and Tom Duits won individual honors.

Driving habits must be altered to fit the season, according to auto research experts. The best method of starting a car in cold weather is to depress the accelerator once or twice, then crank the engine. If Hooding occurs. depress the accelerator fully and hold it down while starting the engine. Warm up the engine by driving immediately at a slow speed, rather than idling it for several minutes. Operating temperature is reached quicker because of the load on the engine, oil circulation is quicker, and there is less chance of fuel dilution through condensation. Don’t turn on the heater im­ mediately because the cold air intake will prolong the time required to heat up the engine. Avoid using the parking brake in cold weather. A temperature drop may freeze the cables making it next to impossible to release the brake Thaw a frozen door lock by heating the key with a match or cigarette lighter and Inserting it quickly into the lock. Often, warming the key in the hands will suffice. Gradual acceleration on icy pavements helps maintain traction, prevents skidding and fishtailing. If skidding occurs, turn front wheels in direction of skid to straighten the car. Apply brakes gradually until the car is under control. BEAUTIFUL CARPETING 3 IN YOUR HOME AT CHRISTMASTIME...

" Nashville Waits Grants to Build Sewage Plant By the middle or end of March, 1973. it should be known whether Nashville village qualified for Federal and State grants for a new sewage treatment plant. The treatment facilities now in use do not meet standards of today. It has also been recommended that additional sewers be con­ structed Io serve some areas which are now either without sewer service or are connected to sewers which discharge directly into Thornapple river and Quaker Creek. Meanwhile studies are con­ tinuing. The state health department reports the water table and recent borings look favorable. Fred Timmer from Williams & Works, engineers of Grand Rapids, met with the council and will continue to meet with them al least once a month until next March. The village applied for grants last September. It is hoped a Federal grant of 50 percent of the cost and a state grant of 25 percent will be forthcoming. The extent of the program to be carried out depends entirely on how much money is received. The larger the grant, the more extensive the program. Tim Smith, supt. of public works, was given permission to become a regular member of the Volunteer Fire Department. He has had first aid and advanced first aid. and will be qualified to make ambulance runs. The fire department finds a manpower shortage to handle daytime calls, because many of the regular firemen work out of town. The council members are to revamp the entire work program for the village employees, thereby hoping to upgrade the work load and at the same time improve benefits for the work­ men This study will start im­ mediately in special work sessions of the entire council. The village is seeking per­ mission from the State Highway department to string Christmas decorations across Main Street, which is M-66, from Nov. 6 through Jan. 3.

It was a United States Post Office from 1850 on, serving the Yankee Springs and the Bowen’s Mills area. Many people bought flour and feed from the mill, which specialized in buckwheat flour. During its early days, it was also a saw mill using the Muley saw which was a lot like a two-man bucksaw. In later years a cider mill was added and became a very popular attraction. Now, 1972. the owners of the mill are planning to reopen the old mill, hoping to restore it to it’s original condition. Plans include operating a gift shop, honoring the historical site, and opening an antique shop. In the Fall, cider will be made and sold. Atty.

It was a United States Post Office from 1850 on, serving the Yankee Springs and the Bowen’s Mills area. Many people bought flour and feed from the mill, which specialized in buckwheat flour. During its early days, it was also a saw mill using the Muley saw which was a lot like a two-man bucksaw. In later years a cider mill was added and became a very popular attraction. Now, 1972. the owners of the mill are planning to reopen the old mill, hoping to restore it to it’s original condition. Plans include operating a gift shop, honoring the historical site, and opening an antique shop. In the Fall, cider will be made and sold. Atty. David Dimmers, Gordon Fuhr, Richard Shaw, Bill Slade, and Warren Williams, owners of the mill; hope to have this project open as soon as next year.

M. C. | By the time this editorial reaches you, the sound and the fury of another Presidential Election will be over and. thanks to the rapid communication networks of today, the results already known. Of course it is nice to have an instant “playback," so to speak, on the results and one would not waht to turn back the clock, even if such a thing were possible However, lightning-fast precision of the modem system does take away some of the glamor and suspense of an election eve in “the good old days," before the advent of radio and TV networks The worst Presidential Election “cliff hanger,” In our memory came in 1916 when Woodrow Wilson defeated Charles Evans Hughes. Because of the closeness of the race, no national trends could be predicted on the basis of early returns. In fact, the result finally depended on the outcome in California. The vote there was neck-anoneck all of the way^-much to close to project on the basis of partial returns Thus, it was four or five days after the polls closed before the winner was known In the meantime there were conflicting reports that encouraged, in turn both the Wilson and Hughes partisans-so, the entire nation was kept in a state of extended suspense Contrast this with four years ago, when, with Nixon and Hum­ phrey in a close contest with results hinging on the Illinois returns, the winner was known by Wednesday morning, less than twelve hours after the polls closed Four years ago. Spiro Agnew was accorded the reputation of "champion heavyweight slugger of American politics However, during the campaign of 1972. none other than George McGovern came forward as the roughest, toughest word-slinger of our times Ac­ cording to Washington correspondents, not in recent times has such harsh, brutal language been directed at a major presidential can­ didate In all this he was aided and abetted by Sen. Edward Kennedy who stated that "the Four Horsemen of the Apocalpse" are back, riding in Republican ranks, this time as “Incompetence, Favoritism, Secrecy ano Corruption;" and by Sargent Shrjver who called the President a “mass murderer.” All this, of course, makes the angriest of the Spiro Agnew fuiminations rather pale and colorless by comparison. The odd things is that the ultra libera) sections of the media who reacted angrily to the Agnew statements, have been surprisingly quiet in their criticisms of McGovern. Apparently, in their opinion, only an out-and-out "liberal’’ should be permitted to use extreme and abusive language in criticising the opposition. To their credit, neither Nixon nor Agnew took the bait by an­ swering in kind. In fact, whether he wins or loses, an individual of Sen McGovern’s basic good character is certain to eventually feel at least a modicum of self shame over the harsh and extreme verbal pyrotechnics to which he resorted during the heat of the campaign Most communities about the state reported safe and sane Halloweens But not so here Never has State Street undergone such a bout of utterly senseless destruction. Although most of the ringleaders are known it is possible that no more than one or two of them will face prosecution and even here, because of technicalities and recent Supreme Court decisions that have rather effectively handcuffed ponce action and even court procedures. One individual who was able to identify several of the window­ smashers and gave their names to the police, refused to put his name on a warrant, thus nullifying any further action. In fact the police are complaining, and with at least some justification, we believe, in the refusal of citizens to cooperate in combating the petty (and not so petty) destruction that has become considerably more than a casual annoyance in our community The destruction is bad enough. Of more immediate concern is the fact that people are being scared away from the downtown area and are taking their trade to nearby shopping centers that can be easily and quickly reached. Call this a materialistic concern, if you will, but isn't it also a civic right of any individual to trade in his hometown community without fear of some sort of interference by hit-and-run gangs who seem to get a perverted pleasure out of this sort of trouble­ making action-which, kt timet has included verbal abuse in addition to property destruction Actually, in taking into account all the teen-age individuals here, only a very, very few are actual participants. A majority of them are more seriously involved in school affairs and civic programs than most of us in the older age brackets ever were As one individual with an understanding knowledge of the situation remarked: “Send away twenty of ’em and we would have a mighty fine community," However, although this is a distinct minority action, it creates a problem that requires a united community action to solve Uniformly sex ere punishment would be a simple answ er but not necessarily the right one An effort should be made to distinguish between those who are. in fact, vicious and those who act as they do through immaturity and thoughtlessness Anyway, this is a situation that citizens here can’t disregard . merely because we wish itwasn’tso—and it isn’t an easy problem to solve because there is no easy answer.

It is intertwined with direction and affection but OH, the exciting adventures along the way. There are train rides, hay rides, and various other ex­ peditions. The most recent ex­ cursion of enchantment for these youngsters was an invitation from their contemporary. Eric Anderson, son of the Mark’An­ dersons, to visit his grand­ parents. Drew and Jean An­ derson. at their farm on Bird Road Henny (small mules) raising is a hobby of Eric’s granddad and he has made a three way harness and bridle hitch for three animals to draw a wagon instead of just the usual two This interest has taken Drew and Jean into the collection of early transportation vehicles before engine power conveyances. There is a store of treasure in these things and the Anderson thingy have been featured in Centennial Parades here and elsewhere It has all developed into a happy way of life pattern, from years ago, and the enthusiasm of the Andersons to preserve this tradition comes over to the youngsters who visit them These pictures show Mr. Anderson in action shoeing his henny and those who rode in the wagon about the farm (The mothers were as thrilled with all of this as their pre-schoolers.)

But July and August made up for it with fantastic weather, when the temperature reached as high as’ 88 degrees Our first new adventure tor the summer was an overnite trip. June 20-21, to Tustemena Lake. It is the largest lake on the Kenai Peninsula, covering 60.000 acres and accessible only by boat or plane My husband*. Jon. myself and our 2 sons.

Doug We went in Field’s 16’ fishing dory across the lower end of the lake to an abandoned trapper's cabin, where we stopped to get warm and have something to eat These cabins are open to anyone who needs them, mainly for survival. The only stipulation in using them is that you leave them as they were when you arrived and leave food and plenty of dry wood for the next person to come along We then headed up the lake until we arrived at the Tustemena Big Game Lodge It is another abandoned place with a nice 2 story log house plus a bunk house, barn and several sheds. It appeared to have been quite an operation back in the ’40s We slept that nite in sleeping bags on the nice soft beds in the lodge and spent the next morning exploring around the place. We left in the afternoon and stopped at ail the cabins on the way back to see what they were like. Jon found a 1936 Reader’s Digest on top of a cupboard in one cabin that was being used for supplies for horses that run loose in the area. Bill found a few old bottles. On July 11th, Jon. Shannon, Shane and I took our "VW" buggy over near Moose Pass, which is over toward Seward We drove the buggy about 3 miles up a mountain mining trail until the road became so steep and washed out that we couldn’t go any further with It was particularly nice that Mr. A's mother was visiting here from Texas at the time of the visitation of her great-grandsons guests Restoration o/T Old House | the buggy There was such a beautiful view from up there We could see a small airplane flying around down in the valley. We aban­ doned the buggy arid walked the rest of the way to the Skein Lechner Mine, a deserted gold mining operation. Along the trail, we saw 2 marmots, which are animals similar to large wood chucks, a porcupine, and ap­ proximately 20 different varieties of wildflowers We returned to the buggy just in time to rescue our bread from another porcupine We set up camp that evening a few miles down the trail. The next morning, we hiked 2 miles (one way) on a path that led to Ptarmigan Lake, on the other side of the mountain from the mine. Again the scenery was very beautiful Thia time, we saw about 10 more varieties of wildflowers, plus some squirrels and rabbits. The animals didn’t seem to be afraid of us. Jon did carry his rifle as we had heard there were some large black bears in the area, although we weren’t afraid of meeting them as we felt the Lord would protect them from us and vice versa. The following Monday, we headed north of Anchorage to Hatcher’s Pass with some other friends. We arrived at the pass late in the afternoon and just had time to set up camp and eat supper that evening For the past several weeks the Jack B Smith family, 1323 Charlton Park Road, (they have four children) have been working to restore the home that they have purchased on the northwest corner of N Michigan Ave. and E Grant St (It’s the beautiful old Rogers home on five corner lots). They hoped to move into their new residence on Sat., Nov. 4, when the Norman Donnitti family, who have been living at 1015 N Michigan Ave., would move into the Smith's Hastings township home that they have Prchased The Smiths know that will take quite a while to complete their project but they love the house and are happy to be in Hastings (Postscript to Bill Schader in Scottsdale, Ariz.-tbe news of the restoration of this house that your two aunts owned for many years must give you a pleased and pleasant feeling of nostalgia.)

First, what are ceramics? Many people confuse ceramics with pottery Now does pottery strike you as the second largest hobby in the U.S. today? No, ceramics whether cold or hot, create a whole different picture of their oym. Ceramics, after finishing touches have been added, can look priceless even though they are inexpensive to work with. The "cold ceramics" process is easily defined and can be perfect by following these simple steps. To begin, plastic molds are used to create the shape or figure of the object Regular art molding plaster is used. After pouring, the plaster mixture will turn hot in the mold. The ceramics can be removed when cooling occurs. Then wait a week or more for them to dry out of the mold before painting them. Before painting they must be sanded and trimmed. Nb sealer is necessary. Any latex or acrylic paints can be used and after painting, finishing touches can be applied such as a crystal or pearl glare. THERE IS NO FIRING PROCESS AT ALL, BEFORE OR AFTER PAINTING. Now there is your difference between hot and cold ceramics! Our newest cold ceramic shop in this area is Jack and Jill Ceramics (formerly Dee and Carol's Gift Shop) in Lake Odessa. Owners are Mr. and Mrs. Victor Goddard of Hastings. A tour of the shop displays a variety of works including figurines, statues, plaques, pictures or decorating ideas that would add just the finishing touches on your home’!

Overall Miss Baumeister thinks the trip to Lansing went quite well: ' "For some girls it was a real learning experience since sonic had never visited a business college, or seen an Audio Visual Training (AVT) Lab. or had ever visited a large office, and for those reasons it was a good trip," Miss Baumeister said. Campaign speeches will be given Monday, Nov. 6 by in­ terested students Six minutes each will be given to speeches for Nixon, McGovern, Kelley and Griffin. Three minutes on the pros and three minutes on the cons will be given for each of the proposals Voting by the students will take place in the cafeteria on Tuesday, Nov. 7.

The veteran fighter, who was awarded two Distinguished Hying Crosses and two Bronze Stars, is Arden (Chops) Wilder, 28, son of Mr. and Mrs. Chester Wilder of Nashville. He is working with his father-in-law, George Miller, in his garage at 903 S Hayes Street in Hastings “I love it here.” Wilder declared as he prepared to start a valve grinding job and to install new piston rings. *Tve always wanted to be a mechanic. Now I’ve the basic freedom that I missed during my years in the service. Working for yourself is great, and I've always liked the State of Michigan.” Wilder, who advanced to the rank of captain, could have remained in the Army, probably moving up to major in not too many years, and with an assured pretty good income and security not enjoyed by Americans. Wilder has some good memories of his two tours of duty in Vietnam, and many tough ones He always liked his men. On his second tour he was a platoon commander, with 11 helicopters under his command and generally about 37 men. "I had the pick of the men. and we never had a morale problem,” Wilder declared. He added that there was never a drug problem in his platoon, and that he believed that for every one American soldier on drugs in the war-tom country, there are 99 attempting to help him. “I treated my men as my brothers. The only real problem we had was boredom-sitting around waiting for things to happen.” Wilder lost three helicopters while a platoon commander, but fortunately had only two men wounded.. ”! thought the American GIs did a great job.” Wilder, who entered the Army on March 6, 1967. got his helicopter pilots wings-at Ft. Waiters. Texas, on March 22, 1968, and went straight to Viet­ nam. He was there a year and flew every day, mostly on hunter­ killer teams or on recon­ naissance flights. He flew 2,000 hours, and about 1.660 were on combat missions. He had three helicopters shot down, and luckily never ever rated a Purple Heart. He was awarded the Flying Crosses and Bronze Stars. After that tour he was a standarization flight instructor at Ft. Rucker, Ala., for 30 months before returning to the war zone as a platoon commander. Again he and his men flew hunter-loller missions and helped resupply the ground troops. They also flew night missions, and when necessary wppld drop huge torches to light up areas for the ground fighting forces. Wilder, who was a warrant officer before receiving his commission at Ft. Rucker, is reticient about talking about the political end of the war for public print. ‘‘I think there will be a problem there for a long time." But, about the hope for peace, Wilder joined in the prayer of all of us. that it come immediately. And now. out of the Army, the former Hastings High ace athlete is happy to be home with his wife, the former Carolyn Miller whom he married on Nov. 23, 1963, and his Michigan friends. STILL GOT THE N0.1 NEW CAR VALUE IN AMERICA! Great Comica Open at Strand Some of the entertainment world's greatest comics will do their thing for seven nights starting Thursday as Ye Olde Strand Theater presents "An Evening With W.C. Fields and The Marx Bros." according to Manager Gordon Bennett. The program actually consists of two features, both from the early *3**s. including "If I Had A Million.” with Fields, and “Duck Soup." considered the most whacky of the many Marx Bros, films. Bennett said that patrons will be surprised to see other famous (aces popping up such as George Raft, Gary Cooper. Mary Boland.

Mitchell Judge of Probate CORTRIOHT ANO BOODY 1972: Year of Involvement for Hastings Are a C of C By Robert Johnson Executive, Ha stings Chamber of Commerce "It will be the year of in­ volvement, change and progress for the Hastings area," were the words that echoed through the high school cafeteria a year ago during the annual planning session of the Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce. "The key to progress for the Hastings area is to keep our minds flexible and adaptable.” Full of enthusiasm and op­ timism, Chamber members reached out to business colleagues and the community during 1972 in an effort to "in­ volve everyone in programs to benefit the. entire area. The Chamber's membership increased'by 50 percent giving the organization a representative thrust into problems affecting economic stability and com­ munity growth. _ , Five major programs ’were initiated for "Involvement: 72", the Chamber's theme for* con­ tinuity and action. Represen­ tatives from the community were involved in one way or another in nearly every project, making the year successful from the stand­ point of "total community in­ volvement" for "total com­ munity development." One of the most successful programs was "to make Hastings THE Barry County shopping center." A carefully selected Task Force of seven community minded individuals were chosen to determine the tools needed to create a more favorable shopping atmosphere. The committee decided that a survey of consumer attitudes would be the most logical step to determine what the needs and problems are of the Hastings business community. The survey was implemented and distributed to more than 1,000 homes in Hastings and the rural area Fifty-two percent of the surveys were returned indicating a sincere concern among consixnets to help make Hastings a bettef city in which to shop. The results of the survey were published in an 140-page book complete with narrative on the cause of the problems, recom­ mendations to improve the conditions, and charts and graphs to graphically illustrate statistics from the 520 survey respondents. A special meeting of Chamber members was held to explain the analysis conducted by the Institute for Community Development and Services at Michigan State University. The entire project was ex­ tremely successful since it in­ volved Chamber members and a representative cross-section of the community. However, im­ plementation of the survey results still remains as a major project for 1973. It conceivably can mean a new and revived shopping atmosphere for thousands of consumers in the area. Downtown parking also was a prime objective and received wide spread support from Chamber members and in­ terested citizens. Although the project has not been completed in its proposed final form, new directions are being initiated to achieve a "complete, aesthetic parking mall.*' It is being ATTORNEYS FOR EXECUTOR suggested that "no through 2M SOUTH BROADWAY traffic, parking only" be initiated HASTINGS.

November 15, 1972.......... 3 �EDITORIAL by R. M. C. President Richard M Nixon has been returned to office by one of the biggest landslide victories in American history. Since members of his party running for state and congressional offices did not fare equally well, the result is obviously a vote of confidence in the President, himself. It is not necessary to agree with everythin Mr Nixon has advocated to appreciate the fact that his uilictes for world peace have been both imaginative and highly effective. The vote also indicates, we believe, that a great majority of people In the United States are in accord with his actions in "winding down" American involvement in the highly unpopular war in Viet­ nam Negotiating from strength with essential agreements made in advance, is more acceptable to most of us than a hastv disengagement that would leave the fate of American prisoners of war in the hands of an unpredictable enemy. None of us like the thought of bombing but even more, we dislike the idea of running out on prisoners of war who were taken in process of serving their country Should America "cop out" on these men? We think not! Possibly this overwhelming vote for President Nixon may serve to impress the North Vietnam representatives in Paris that the United States, despite the hue and cry of war critics, is still solidly behind their government in peace negotiations. The coming four years are not going to be easy ones. With the dose of hostilities in Indo-China, or at least our participation in same, more attention must be given to domestic problems in addition uK keeping contacts with Russia and China on an open and friendly basis and attempting to keep frictions in the Mideast from breaking out into a shooting war. Here on the home front, the prospect of a multitude of labor negotiations post at least a threat of trouble on the industrial front at a time when the economy appears to be on the rise once again. Reforms in our costly and largely ineffective welfare system have been considered for years and It is probable that action will have to come to a head soon. U.S. fiscal procedures are recognized as totally unsound, due largely to the action of Congress in voting costly programs without any provisions for keeping payment in line with budgetary requirements Although the President Is held responsible for the level of the National debt. Congress has the power to vote unsound fiscal measures and to over-ride presidential vetoes of same Although President Nixon won by a landslide, the political situation throughout the Nation as reflected in the outcome of other contests for state and national office remained pretty much as "status quo " The Republicans gained a few seats in Congress but saw its membership in the Senate reduced by two and in addition had a net loss of one in the gubernatorial contests. ' Republicans will do well to take the realistic view that they are still the minority party and at state and local levels have not made significant inroads into the independent vote which, at present, is the key factor in determining the outcome of political contests Only in the South did the Republicans make gains that show some signs of becoming permanent.. If this is true and If the South is now in a mood to ditch its former solid Democratic stand in favor of two party operation, both the South and the Nation will have gained. This is true because views and opinions that prevail in the South must be given prater recognition in party councils than in the old days when huge Democratic majorities were a matter of mere routine. The seemingly incontinent electidn results actually signify that people were re-electing Mr. Nixon as a President, representative of all the Nation, rather than a presidential candidate nominated by the Republican party-the “silent majority" expressing themselves once again The result is an outstanding personal endorsement of the President and does, as he mentioned in nis election night speech from the Oral Room, place a heavy burden of responsibility on both himself and his administration. Personally we regreted that Margaret Chase Smith was defeated in her bid for re-election to the Senate Her record was outstanding and. although a Republican, she had a healthy independence of mind and won the respect of all her colleagues. At a time when women are taking a more active part in national affairs, it defies explanation that she went down to defeat But such is politics! Michigan registered a historic first in electing Man Coleman as a justice of the Michigan Supreme Court She deserved this honor in recognition of her excellent professional record. Undoubtedly h§r success was greatly aided by the fact that Mrs Elly Peterson of Charlotte, former chairman of the National Republican Committee came out of retirement to direct the campaign No better assistance could have been obtained anywhere. Judge Coleman describes herself a strict constructionist rather than an innovator in ruling on legal matters. Thus she will un­ doubtedly find herself something of a lone voice, for the time being, at least However, it is to be hoped that her election, in addition, to pioneering the way for thr presence of women on our Supreme Tribunal, also marks the beginning of a trend toward upgrading the professional and judicial quality of this important Court Members for this Tribunal should be selected on some more substantial basis than as a mere reward for political loyalty AU of the special propositions lost, except A (daylight saving) which apparently won by a slender margin. This in our opinion, made good sense. Those proposals designed to relieve taxation on property and to provide new financing for the schools were so indefinite as to be quite unsatisfactory Also, we hope that Michigan never goes to a graduated income tax which would require the creation of an entirely new bureaucracy to administer The law as it is can provide ad­ ditional funds, if funds are needed, and any inequities can be handled easily and simply via exemptions We agree that U.S Presidential Campaigns are too long and too costly With TV. radio and the daily media able to reach millions of people in a short time, the length of campaigns could be drastically cut without loss to anyone. After the first week, everything said or heard on campaign trails is mostly repition or a spin-off into various forms of personalabuse. In the Presidential Election just completed, for example, the final result corresponded closely with predictions indicated in the professional polls shortly after the conclusion of the two major party conventions. In England, where a very successful democracy has been in operation for many years, campaigns are completed in a matter of days. Area-wise, of course, England is small 4......... THE HASTINGS BANNER.......... November 15, 1372 in comparison with the U.S.A, but our communication system is much more elaborate and efficient. Our present campaign system that developed during the horse and buggy era could certainly stand considerable updating. We doubt, too, whether our Presidential Primary system can be termed a real success. The system is costly, time consuming, attracts only a light vote and. in a case where the field of candidates is large, does not insure that the most competent individual is selected. The primary, in our opinion, merely adds to the Campaign Year uproad, a make it more difficult to get salient issues across for public con­ sideration. There is much competition, as was expected, for dealerships in »m*s new State Lottery System. Although the Lottery is ex to be a financial bonanza for the State, our prediction is that we are merely incorporating something that will produce better in the field of “headaches" than in financing. To the Editor: 1 would like to start by saying, that the courtesy of (2) the Hastings police officers leaves a lot to be desired. On Oct. 31st. at approximately 7:15 p.m. we were driving through town and saw that the police car ahead of us had no taillights. Assuming they did not realize the lights were out we pulled un beside them at the stop sign. I politely asked the officer if he anew they had no tailights. Both officers merely laughed and said, Quote, "Good. Then you can't see us coming can you/' and drove away. 1 wonder, if someone ac­ cidently hit them in the rear of their vehicle, whose fault would it be? It is very difficult to see a car in front of you with no tailights. Fu therm ora, I have always assumed that it is the law that "ALL" vehicles have ligtya both front and back. I do not fgfl that just because they drive h police car and wear a laiiform, that they should be allowed to:-have defective equipment on. their vehicles. It is no safer for them than any citizen to do so. A doubt that my car would pass a safety inspection witnout taillights Would theirs? Charlotte Scott I .

As a result, only a developer could afford to buy the farm. The developer is now in the process of building his first house on a beautiful alfalfa field. In a little while another house will go up and soon he'll have houses on all the farm. He’ll be able to build 13 houses on that particular farm and he won't need to follow any sub­ division laws as he’s not sub­ dividing but splitting it up in parcels. How many other farms will be swallowed up by developers and realtors Interested only in making money for themselves without any concern for good land use, the general beauty of an area, or the future we will leave for our children?

Here David Hagon operates his 1160 Case, pouring shelled com into his truck. Hagon leases the 15 acres on the north side of the Thornapple from Barry County, land owned by the original county farm. Hagon. and others, report an excellent corn yield. Hagon is getting K to M bushels of shelled com to the acre. He has a drying operation on his farm on Assyria Road near Nashville. He has about 250 acres in com, all contracted for at from 11.07 to 01.W a bushel. Monday, Extension Agent Jim Pelham said Barry's corn crop has been excellent but (be muddy fields have prevented many farmers from completing the "harvest. Perhaps only about 40 percent has been harvested. Pelham said there has been a lot of stalk breaking, and considerable droppage. He said as much as 15 bushels per acre could be left on the ground. Monday Pelham said a mold had been reported, which could generate poisons to cattie and it could be very serious to hogs and pregnant animals. The com is molding in the field.

Pelham Extension Agricultural Agent Looking forward to next year will beef prices still be as high as they are today-? Cattle feeders hope they vyill be a little higher! Actually, feeders are genuinely worried about prices, and rightly so. This has been a good year for feeders, but there are some doubts about next year. We are told there is a world wide shortage of red meats and prices will remain high. Why all the concern then? Beef feeding has become a specialized operation on a large volume basis. Most feeders don’t raise their calves, but rather, they buy them from someone who makes a speciality of raising calves to four to six hundred pounds. Quite a few calves are raised in Michigan, but many are shipped in from ranches in the Western and Southern states. We note in looking over reports from the northern Michigan sales for example the price for 400 to 500 pound choice steer calves was about 53 cents a pound this year. Figuring in transportation this means a cost of upward from $240 delivered to the farm. This is forty to $50 higher than last year. To add to the feeders’ concern diethystilbestrol, a growth promoting hormone which greatly improved on feed con­ version to beef, has been outlawed. It Fill take more feed to make a pound of gain this year than last and feed cost are up. Soybean meal, which is typically used as a protein supplement, has to be purchased and is selling for more than $20 a ton higher than last year. Corn is about 15 cents a bushel higher and with the miserable Fall weather we have had the harvest is progressing slowly and field losses are running high Looking at the ‘high cost of feeders situation reminds us that our TelFarm records showed that up until the‘last couple of years the calf raising business has been one of the least profitable of farm enterprises, and is one of the important reasons for our current shortage of beef. Two years ago figures showed they couldn’t make a profit raising them on land costing as much as $100 an acre and there isn’t much of that kind jffggS IMPLEMENTS, inc. rf-37 SOUTH (AT CITY LIMIT)* HASTINGS, MICH.

Susan Satterlee Represents Maple Valley's NSDAR o o o Determine Students Vocational Interest A Career Planning Program (CPP) test has been planned for any interested Lakewood students from grades 10 through 12 at the high school Tuesday. Nov. 21. . "The test is basically one to help determine a student's vocational intarest and ability as well as providing him a means of comparsion with others who are currently successful in their fields," said Rosemary DeHoog, one of Lakewood's high school counselors The test is 3W hours in length and a fee of 96 is charged to cover costs. "If the 16 fee is a problem some arrangements can be made,” Miss DeHoog offered. The test is administered through the Montcalm Com­ munity College and the first of its kind to be offered here at Lakewood. “We think it will help to further define for the student the kind of career he may be interested in." Miss DeHoog said “It would be especially helpful for the student who just doesn't know what he wants to do. The results of the test will be personally gone over with the student and parent if the parent wishes. Any student who would like to take the lest or needs more in­ formation should contact any of the Lakewood Counselors before Wednesday, November 15. Start your Christmas Shopping Early!!! Off ■?

There's probably no other season which attracts such excitement and attention as the period devoted to hunting big game. The magnatism of the hunt is only surpassed bv the fun. relaxation and companionship of the hunting camp or group Old Buzz expects to join the Hamm brothers of Iron Mountain for Wednesday’s opener in the Sagola area of the great Upper Peninsula. Russ Rounds, manager of the Barry Slate Game Area in Yankee Springs, reported that Phillip VanDonnelen of Jenison knocked down a fine eight pointer in the game area Saturday morning, Nov. 11, with his bow and arrow. The buck was nearly one and one-half years old and weighed about 160 pounds. Phil was the first to get a patch for being a successful deer hunter. DNR patches are presented to hunters when they bring in their deer for checking at official DNR stations. Don't forget, you sharpshooters! Snowmobiiers are reminded of a law change since a year ago which requires them to observe morning and afternoon quiet periods on public hunting lands during the firearm deer season. It is illegal to operate these machines “In an area on which public hunting is permitted during the season open to the taking of deer with firearms from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m. and from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m." There are exceptions to the rule, and’ conservation officers are instructed to use particularly “good judgment" in enforcing It this year, ac­ _____ _ „ DNR Law En­ cording to forcement Chief George M Dahl Gull Lake has replaced Mason on lhe Hastings High football schedule for the next two years. We go to Gull Lake next Fall on Oct. 26. and lhe Blue Devils come here in 1974. Lew Lang reports that Hastings will have a double header next Fall, too. Gull Lake's freshmen will come here for a 4:30 game on the 25th, and lhe junior varsities will play here at 6:30 that same evening. Hastings has dropped the Sth grade game with Haslett and the JV game with Waverly. Hastings has also dropped Marshall at the junior varsity level and will play the Lakewood s reserves. Our Christmas basketball tournament should be a dandy. Delton and Lakewood and Hastings and Middleville will play the first games on Thur­ sday. Dec. 28, with lhe winners meeting for the title Friday, Dec. 29, and the losers playing for consolation honors. There will be a freshman tournament, too, with games at 9 and 10:30 and a junior varsity tourney with games set for 2 and 3:30 p.m. The varsity games will be played at 7 and 8:30 Jack Moss of Kalamazoo sat next to our Louie Gilbert a while ago at a dinner, and learned that when the University of Michigan opened its football stadium back in 1927, the first touchdown was scored on a pass from Louie to Kip Taylor. Gilbert was one of the all-time sports greats at Kalamazoo Center, before going on to Michigan. Gilbert is now a member of the Barry County Road Commission, after being defeated by Orville Hammond in the August primary of 1970 for reelection to the Board of Commissioners Never have we seen Spartan Stadium erupt as it did Saturday when Michigan State handed Woody Hayes State Buckeyes 19­ 12 defeat. Thousands of fans swarmed onto the field even before lhe last second was taken off the clock. They claimed Coach Duffy Daughtery, hoisted him high above the shouting crowd and took him off the field. Duffy had announced his resignation before the MSUPurdue game, and his boys went out ana whipped the favored Boilermakers. And they did it again Saturday, decisively. Duffy introduced a young Hollander, Dirk Krijt, 20, who rushed four field goals against Ohio State for a Spartan record. Dirk had been playing junior varsity ball after quitting the MSU soccer team. He tran­ sferred to MSU this past Sum­ mer. Duffy called him his “Dutch Treat.” Over the past few seasons there were many in the MSU stands critical of Duffy. Saturday, you could sense the feeling most of us have for the lovable Irishman. Students carried signs “Duffy’s No. 1. ” The halftime show was all Irish. And the game belonged to The Irishman! There was a tenseness and excitment at Montague Friday night, as the Wildcats were host to Middleville High’s Trojans in a battle of unbeaten Class C powers. Coach Bob White’s charges were up, but not nearly as high as the ’Cats’ who put together a great, varied attack to thrill their several thousand fans while leaving the big Middleville crowd dumbfounded. Middleville sent eight bus loads of students, and the adults followed in cars. It was hard to believe, but the tough Wildcats didn’t Rive Middleville a chance to show anything as they forced mistakes, and took advantage of them. Middleville lost two fumbles and had three aerials intercepted The Trojans had only 18 running plays and passed 12 times. The Trojans punted seven times, and made two first downs running and two passing. The rout gave Middleville an 8­ 1 record for the season, and Montague remained among the State's unbeaten powers Hastings' Tom Duits took fourth in 15:40 at the Meet of Champions held at Charlotte Saturday morning. Greg Meyer proved himself the finest cross country runner in the State as the unbeaten senior held off Reed City’s Herb Lindsay to win by two seconds, in 15:12.2. Devon Hind. (Auburn Heights Avondale), was third in 15:34. Our Duits. the State Class B champion, is just a junior! Marshall 15. Ha»tino» 7. Montague 35. Mldtlievllle 0. Bellevue 32. Webberville 0.

This year’s Christmas program, “The Merry Miss Adventures of Winnie Witch" featuring the talented Donald Rattjes Puppet Company, open* "Super Saturday" festivities with shows at 9:30 and 11 a.m. The puppet company bases the delightful story on the haunting adventure of a comic French witch, living in a mysterious cottage. She allows the place to be turned into a candy shop on the condition that she can nave all the "pink fudge" she can handle. . and that’s when the fun begins. The tale is narrated and vocalized by a colorful French minstrel who strolls around the stage in a brightly colored costume among the performing three-foot puppets. The stereo sound system echoes the music of Rossini, Milhard and even Dr. Doolittle while the scenery and stage lighting all unfold to present a charming program The man who created this is Donald Battjes Jr., who graduated from Hope College in Holland. Aftdr attending Fon­ tainebleau School of Art in France, he designed his first production. Battles oversees all aspects of his busy puppet organization The ideas behind his presentations are executed after many hours of designing characters, scenery and props. The construction and assembling of the puppets is done in his large Grand Rapids workshop. "We’re extremely proud to offer this type of quality en­ tertainment in Hastings this year as our Chdstmas show,’’ said Diana Johnson, co-chairman of Ute event "Last year's show was successful and I think It indicated a def talite need for children's entertainment in the area. The committee has definitely been striving to improve the quality Of lhe show and overcome some of lhe difficulties from last year," Mrs. Johnson said. The shows in Central Auditorium at 9:30 and 11:00 will afford comfortable seating and good stage visibility for everyone. Tickets for the show will go on sale in many Hastings retail stores and the Chamber of Commerce office Monday, Nov. 20, at 50 cents for children 12 and under and 75 cents for adults. Ticket seekers are urged to purchase tickets in advance as door sales may be limited to only a few tickets for each per­ formance. The Christmas show com­ mittee includes Mrs. Johnson and Mrs. Graydon Megan, co­ chairman, and Mrs. Gary Begg, Mrs. David Jasperse and Mrs. Gary Slocum.

Dale Ball, Director of the Michigan Department of Agriculture. “This is $6.4 million less than the previous year's record figure. The decreaU is directly at­ tributable to crippling dock strikes during the year." Ball explained. According to tabulations by MDA’s Marketing division, Michigan ranked 24th nationally in total agricultural exports. The state was second in export of vegetables and vegetable preparations at $24.3 million, fourth in dairy products at $6.3 million, seventh m fruit and fruit preparations at $4.6 million. "Agricultural sales to foreign markets are important to Michigan," Ball continued. "They contribute to a healthy economy, especially in our rural areas." Decreases were noted in wheat, feed grains and soybeans. These exports accounted for $45 million of total overseas agricultural sales.

SSttSSSSS::*:::^^ Joe Falls is probably the moat widely read sports columnist in Out State Michigan and he talks as he writes-colorful, factual and never for a moment dull Maybe his oratorical style wouldn’t be used as a model in a high school English class, but it would be haw to improve on his choice of phrases in getting across an idea in a manner that keeps everyone alert and attentive Nothing wrong with English as she is spoke,” when put forth by one who knows what “English as she is spoke,” is all about. This isn’t to deny that classical English has its place, and an important one, in die world of literature. However, the field of sports is something quite special and a purist might be out beyond his depth in attempting to adequately translate its colorful, fast-moving, sometimes raucous action into writing by use of conventional English along—at least the resulting composition wouldn’t be nearly as fascinating as the way Joe tells it. Despite the fast-moving pace of his columns which might lead one to believe that sentences and paragraphs literally gush forth from his typewriter, Joe said that the writing comes hard and that it takes a lot of doing and redoing to achieve the informal and highly personal style that are the hallmark of his writings Any journalist who takes a personal pride in his product can appreciate what Joe says More often than not writing does come hard and presents a constant source of frustration in battling to get on paper and in some sense of order the ideas that are going around and around in one's head Writing, except on rare occasions, is hard work indeed! Too bad the audience wasn’t larger, but with the advent of the deer season. Hastings and Barry county depopulate rapidly Being a sportsman, himself, Joe can undoubtedly understand the situationActually, it was a compliment to his name and deputation that the turnout, although not SRO, was sizeable and certainly interested in the talk and the question and answer session that followed. Incidentally, net proceedings from the affair were turned bver to the Barry County Park Commission to help defray the expenses connected with the installation of the historic old Carlton Center church at Charlton Park Thus, added thanks to Joe for coming here on a not too pleasant evening i weatherwise) at considerable personal inconvenience to himself._____ .._____ Columnists and TV commentators are having a field day batting around the question as to whether or not the landslide election in favor of Mr. Nixon represents any basic realignment of the two major parties. . Our guess il that at state and local levels, there has been no spectacular change The Republican party is still the minority party and will have to do some effective work if it is to make noticeable gains at these levels or even to “hold the line.” An active campaign by the President in support of the governors and congressional candidates of his party would have had but minimal effect, at bestand, most probably no effect.at all. The so-called “coattail effect” is, , in our opinion the creation of Washington commentators who merely want something to write about that will gain headlines. At the National level, the victory cannot be attributed to the Republican Party, as such. On the contrary, it would seem to proye that the Democratic candidate and the platform hammered out at Miami Beach, were simply too far left for the majority of voters who are pretty much "in the center”-neither extreme right nor extreme left Also, it indicates that a large share of the independent voters in both the North and South were more impressed with the ac­ complishments of the Nixon Administration than they were with the promises and preachments of Mr. McGovern. The attempt to make Watergate a National issue failed for the simple reason that it never was or never should have been an issue and the attempt to give it emphasis merely indicated the desperation of the McGovern camp to discover and exploit an issue of real significance. The National rote also indicated the growing importance of the Independent faction in the United States TTiis includes both those who do not align themselves with anv party and those who register Republican or Democrat but who. in the vote for president, do not feel themselves committed to either party although they may follow the party line faithfully in voting for state and local candidates % The independent rote in National politics is getting to be a major factor that can swing an election either way Neither major party has the strength to win a Presidential campaign without strong support from the independents This is undoubtedly a favorable factor in thgt it compels both Democrats and Republicans to keep free of factional controls and develop programs that are truly national. ’ Barn- Goldwater surrounded himself with conservatives and ultra-conservatives and the party platform was hammered odt ac­ cording to their wishes. The result, disastrous to Republican hopes, indicated, if anything that there are simply not enough dedicated consenatives in America to win Presidential Elections In a similar manner. George McGovern with the support of liberals ignored the conservative and moderate factions in his party and hammered out a program that was simply too far left to appeal to a majority of the voters. He. too. was buried under a landslide greater than the one that toppled Barry Goldwater Thus, forcing parties to become National instead of merely partisan, is a good thing for the United States Probably a growing realization of the importance of this independent vote will make the two major parties a bit more careful and conscientious in writing platforms that represent their real intentions-platforms they really intend to support-platforms that are not just window dressing to attract voters with glittering promises At state and local levels the party vote is a stronger factor than in the vote for president. It is obvious that millions of Democratic voters who split their tickets to cast ballots for Nixon, supported their own candidates for county, state and congressional offices. Nationally the Republicans lost a few governorships and U.S Senators but won seats in the House of Representatives Thus, it is fair to say that, aside from the presidency, the election was about an even break from a partisan standpoint Although the Democratic Party al the moment is loaded with debts and has no effective organization, the vote in the recent elec­ tion. taking into account only the state and local returns proves conclusively that there is still a tremendous Democratic vote awaiting only the right sort of leadership to regroup and unify/its scattered factions. Republicans will do well to acknowledge that fact and act ac­ cordingly They should not forget that only a few years their own party was snowed under in the landslide that defeated Goldwater. We believe, too. that the average American voter has become disenchanted with the unsound liberalism of the "Eastern Establish­ ment.” and. regardless of his previous position, is moving nearer center Whether you agree with any of the above or not, you will have to admit that these are exciting times in which we live.

Maple Valley Okays Trip to Spain Laurie Kendrick, Maple Valley School Spanish teacher attended Monday (Nov. 13) night's School Board meeting and received permission for the members of the Spanish class to plan a trip to Spain for the Spring vacation. Miss Kendrick pointed out that other schools in the State have approved such trips to enable the Spanish students to get a bit of Firactica) knowledge of the anguage and the country The students will pay their own ex­ penses In other routine business at the Board meeting, the three school principals made reports on the recent parent-teacher con­ ferences and all agreed the conferences were well attended and helpful to both parents and teachers. High School Principal Jim Wynea presented a schedule of the room use in the school for this semester and for the second semester Wynes said. "For scheduling purposes, a building should be scheduled up to 85 percent of capacity each hour As you can see. we have passed this point Some rooms, such as shop, kitchen, etc., are not useful for general education even when open. For the fourth hour of the second semester, every room is occupied, and should another class have to be scheduled, it would have to be in the hall The board approved a contract for Susan Du Ford tor Jr-8r High reading. Supt. Carroll Wolff pointed out that when a student damages property or fails to return school property, he is charged with the repair or replacement of the property He pointed out this is not the usual wear and tear, which is more or less expected, but is deliberate damage. He said in most cases the student or the parents willingly pay. There are a few. however, who refuse to pay or even lx* concerned The board gave approval of taking such cases to the Small Claims Court for collection In his report. Wolff said Thanksgiving vacation would be Nov. 23-24. Christmas vacation will start Thursday. Dec. 21 at 3:30 Wolff told the board the school district received reimbursement of $5,354.80 for the summer driver education program. Total cost was $8,187.60. The State is supposed to reimburse $30 per student but funds this year allowed only 99 percent. Maple Valley had 180 students in the program. The board voted to have Wolff check the prices of Carpenter school bus bodies and if the price is the same as last year, they approved the purchase of ad­ ditional bodies One new route has been opened since the opening of school and Wolff recommended the board consider the purchase of three additional buses to replace older ones and to handle the increase. The board also voted to support a one mill vote at the county level for operational funds for the vocational education program for 1973-74 school year. NEW ROTARIAN Thomas Johnson of the J.R.

Nov. 13. �When Your Steering Wheel Starts Vibrating, Have Front Balanced When ■ car steering wheel starts vibrating, especially al speeds above 45 to 50 miles per hour. It’s a cue to have the front wheels balanced As car speed increases, the heavy side of an unbalanced tire tries to lift the wheel as It rotates upward, then throws Ils weight al the road as It rotates downward, according to auto research ex­ perts. These movements are tran­ sferred through the steering linkage and steering column to the steering wheel The result is the steering wheel seems to the driver to come alive with the jitters. Wheels can be balanced satisfactorily on a bubblelevel balancer at most service stations for "static balance ' If driving involves frequent high speed trips, it's advisable to have the job done on a "dynamic balan­ cer" with the wheels actually turning at high speeds Rear wheels also should be checked periodically for proper balancing to insure better tire wear ana a smoother ride. When getting the front wheels balanced, it's recommended that the front alignment be checked and also the steering mechanism. If th«f steering wheel turns freely more tl an two inches in either direction before moving the front wheels, it could mean an adjustment is needed of the gear box at the base of the steering column. Loose lie rods and ball joints, however, show the same symptoms, but are a lot more dangerous. Loose steering often is ac­ companied by "wandering" or difficulty in keeping the car traveling in a straight line. Child Guidance Clinic Serves 122 from Barry; 43 Pct.

Battle Creek.and the groom's parents are Mr*and Mrs. Harold Brandt of 204 W. Marshall St., Hastings Miss Marilou Blocker of Muskegon was maid of honor and bridesmaids were Miss Mary Pat Stevenson of Sault Ste. Marie, Miss Sue Wilcox and Miss Mary Jane Rose Karl Brandt of Birmingham served his brother as best man and guests were sealed by John Hoyt of Dowling and Gary Lip­ scomb of Climax, cousins of the groom, and Jonathan Conklin, brother of the bride. The bride, a graduate of Battle Creek Central High School, at­ tended Elkhart Institute of Technology and is employed as a cardio-pulmonary therapist at Battle Creek Sanitarium. The groom, who was graduated from Prew School at Sarasota. Fla., attended Olivet College and is employed by Felpausch Food Center, Hastings. The newlyweds are now at home in Dowling. She's A Housewife with A 70-Room Home (Editor's note —The following article that appeared In a recent issue of the Chicago Tribune is of interest to Barry C ounty folks because the parents, of the lady in this story, reside at 4546 East Gull lake Drive. They are. Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Early, who delight in following the activities of their daughter now living in England.) When Marcia Brocklebank moved into her husband's family house, her mother-in-law lotted down a “few notes" that might help . her take care of the place They came to 58 typed pages "It was incredible.” said the lovely blonde from Hickory Corners, Mich . who left a museum career in Washington and New York to marrv a British banker. Sir Charles Brocklebank “It told where to have the chandelier cleaned, how to take care of the rush matting, even where to have the lead roofs glazed—things I really wanted to know" t . • The Brocklebank home is a 16th century. 70-room house in Suf­ folk. and these days most of Mrs Brocklebank's time is spent running it, or the farm that surrounds it. or their elegant apartment on Grosvenor Square If Mrs. Brocklebank's life style sounds a little bit like the old radio soap opera. Our Gal Sunday (“Can a little girl from a mining town in the West find happiness as the wife of a wealthy and titled Englishman*’")—it is. The bubbly mother of two indicates that the gap between Hickory Comers and a vast estate in Suffolk is easily bridged 4 “I grew up in a farm community in Michigan, and the flatness of Suffolk is more like it than any other part of England And I’ve loved this house ever since the moment I first saw it," she said as she served drinks in her newly decorated library the other day "It was in very good condition,'and the age and style were so appealing It was built in 1530. I like to think it was built in that same time that Mary Queen of Scots was stepping off the boat from France when she returned to England." Altho the Brocklebanks moved into Giffords Hall 24 years ago, the Brocklebank family has owned it since 1935. It was originally built by a wealthy Catholic family named Mannock, whose generations of family portraits still inhabit the corridors Since the house has always been lived in. and most recently by, Brocklebank's mother, whom his wife describes as "an excellent antiquarian ." it was m good shape when they moved in Of the 70 rooms, her only immediate problems were the masker bedroom (which she did over in contemporary style), the library (like an American living room), which was empty, and a first-floor ladies' room For a girl who grew up on a farm in Michigan and then studied art history at Smith and New York University’s Institute of Fine Arts, living at Giffords Hail has meant a new and utterly English life style. ‘TIt’s an enormous job to run it. There are so many rooms, and amazingly enough ail of them are used Each activity has its own room—there's a sewing room, a gun room, a boot room, a pin^-pong room, a broom room You could put something down and lose it for two weeks." she said Mrs Brocklebank relies heavily on her staff of three maids, a butler, a cook, a nanny, a gardener, and a farm manager "I leaned totally on the maids’ experience when I came," she said "They were happy to be in a position of authority and expertise And I couldn't possiolv run the house without the butler, Fernando. He polishes the shoes, lays the fires, mows the lawn, clips the hedges, polishes the silver, acts as bartender, takes care of the wine, turns down the beds, draws the curtains, and always smiles .” Their farm produces much of the food they eat—fruits and vegetables (which grow ir. a medieval walled garden behind the house), eggs, and in shooting season, feathered game "We eat an awful lot of pbeasapt." she said The pheasant season starts Oct. 1. and from then until January there are monthly shoots and weekend house parties at Giffords Hall Guests stay from Friday until Monday, and by now arc used to the somewhat Americanized ways of Mrs Brocklebank recreational division and was in Da Nang, Vietnam for one year.

Art Meade Ford Classic Drug Woodland Lumber Centre Hitt Farm Equipment �Cite Hastings as Example How Small Towns Can Compete Small cities should turn the tables and start attracting trade from their neighboring big cities, according to a representative of Michigan State University’s Institute for Community Development. “How to compete with nearby big-city stores is a problem for many small town retailers,” said ftobert Anderson, assistant director of the institute, “but they don't have to fold up and quit.'* He was Commenting on recommendations made by the institute to Hastings, a city of 7,000, centrally located among Grand Rapids. Battle Creek and Kalamazoo and within driving distance of Lansing. After an intensive analysis of a consumer survey conducted by the Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce, the institute recommended that Hastings merchants stop competing with each other and join forces to give the town a unique identity. The analysis was made by William P. Goodrich. the institute's economist. Coordinating of "lines*’ bet­ ween stores in the same field, such as auto supplies or hard­ ware, would cut out duplication of items. Hastings could thus offer a wider variety of merchandise without any one store having to increase its inventory greatly, the institute advised. With nearly exclusive lines in each store. Hastings merchants might be able to offer the big cities price competition, it added. To develop a special identity for Hastings, the institute recommended citywide promotions, such as festivals, summer sidewalk sales or art shows. To add interest, new shops, such as antiques, books, leather goods, jewelry or sausage, cheese and wine stores, were recommended. Shopping hour changes also were advised. Weekends, when many big-city stores are closed, might be the ideal time to attract people from the big cities for a shopping adventure” in Hastings, the institute counseled. “In another sense Hastings is in an enviable position precisely because of its proximity to four larger cities, the analysis in­ dicates. Just as Hastings shoppers may be attracted to nearby cities to take advantage of special opportunities they offer, and for reasons such as adventure and a change of scenery, so too may shoppers from Grand Rapids, Battle Creek. Kalamazoo and Umsing, be attracted if Hastings has something unique to offer them." Want to Learn How to Identify Types of Wood? ' Charlton Park Given S3,461 In setting the estate of Mrs. Schuyler (Blanche) Bowen, 16 2-3 of the total was bequeathed to Charlton Park. That amounted to $3,461.64 and the check lias already been given to the park commission. George Hampton was the administrator and Richard Hudson was the attornejl handling the legal matters involved in dosing the estate. Wood buffs who would like to identify the materials they’re working with and who don’t have the opportunity to study under an expert can now learn in their own homes. A new publication entitled, “Identifying Wood,'* was recently published by Michigan State University’s Cooperative Extension Service and is available to the public free of charge. Authored by Dr. Eldon A. Behr, professor in MSU’s Department of Forestry, the publication deals only with those woods commonly used by hobbyists, builders, furniture makers, carpenters and do-it-yourselfers. It is not intended for use with most exotic items such as imported novelties and carvings. The publication gives a description of general wood characteristics, p'us four pages of photographs showing close-ups of various types of wood. Two full pages are devoted to an extensive identification key. Get a free copy of "Identifying Wood" at your local county ex­ tension office or by writing for Extension Bulletin E-746 al the Bulletin Office, P.O. Box 231, Michigan State University, East Lansing, Mich. 48823 farming without a farm is the trend for Michigan’s young dairymen, says James Gibson, coordinator of Michigan State University’s Agricultural Production Program. As independent dairymen give way to partnerships and cooperatives, young people will break in as herdsmen and crop managers. . The need for full-time hired workers will draxically increase during the next few decades. Gibson savs. Student's trained ■ in such programs as Michigan State’s 18­ month Agricultural Production Program mqy advance to salaries of $12,(KM) to $15,000, Gibson says MSU’s program includes a 6-month internship that prepares students in dairying, leadership and human relations Women, too, will work on the expanding dairies, sup­ plementing family incomes by working part-time in milking and calf care, Gibson predicts. in Three Weeks Hastings police investigated 120 crimes from Oct. 23 to Nov. 13, Chief of Police Richard Sunior reported to the Council at the last session. Offenses included breaking and entering, assaults, larceny of bikes and autos, check' law violations, kidnapping, narcotics, trespassing and others. Sixtyeigbt were cleared. Officers checked 76 traffic and safety complaints, clearing 67. They issueu 38 moving violation tickets, 13 non-moving tickets and 75 overtime parking citations. # SEE HUNDREDS OF GREAT VALUES!

This may be one effective way of eliminating some of the con­ tamination kernels from the grain tank. Due to warm, rainy weather throughout much of October and early November, much corn is still in the field.

FARM Barry County • Activities t Corn Mold Poisons Threaten Michigan's Livestock Industry Isolated outbreaks o( livestock poisoning due to the feeding of moldy corn have been reported during late October and early November in southern and central Michigan Only a limited number of the molds that attack corn can cause livestock poisoning, but weather conditions during the4all of this year have been very favorable for the growth of fungi on corn ears in the field. Poisonous compounds formed by corn molds cause the following symptoms in livestock: Swine- refusal to eat the ration; abortion of litters; vomiting; diarrhea, internal bleeding. Cattle and sheep-feed refusal, diarrhea, reduction in milk yield, lack of weight gain, nervous twitching, internal bleeding, abortion, infertility, bloody feces or urine, and in extreme cases, death Poultry-drop in egg production, and fatalities tn turkey poults, chicks and goslings To reduce the chances of livestock poisoning, we urge livestock producers and com growers to harvest their com as soon as possible, even if it means leaving wet areas of the field to be harvested later This gets the com out of the wet, humid con­ ditions before the molds can develop Harvested corn should be dried immediately to prevent further mold development. Drying will not destroy the poisons already present, however. Moldy com should not be fed to tAFF'0uT ^ “DAVE " GOODYEAR Ciilfw'! dots. So, we In harder Io please you better.

Under a new Food and Drug Administration regulation, any product involved in "cents-off” promotion must state on the package the actual ,price reduction and the new price, reports Michigan State University Consumer Marketing Specialist Sheila Morley. The original price also must be displayed nearby. The new law assures that you really do save money when a package is marked "10 cents off regular price" or "25 cents cash refund when you mail in coupon.** Previously, if you mailed in a coupon that promised 25 cents refund, vou really gained only 17 cents, due to' the B-cent stamp, Mrs. Morley says. Now. sponsors of refund promotions must either cover the cost of mailingperhaps by returning an 8-cent stamp with the refund--or state that the offer does not include postage.

Mrs. Ethel Buie, Barry County chairman for the Michigan Women for Highway Safety, spent three days at a highway safety conference in Lansing where she heard Secretary of State Richard H. Austin describe two of the programs by which the. Department of State is at­ tempting to refine and improve its procedures and make a meaningful impact on the per­ formance of Michigan drivers. Secretary Austin declared that while the effort to improve vehicles so that it is more dif­ ficult for a driver to hurt himself has been effective, “we must turn more of our resources to the role of the driver himself." "After all,” Austin said, “driver failure is undoubtedly a greater cause of accidents than vehicle failure. We must do all in our power to see that the driver is armed with the knowledge and the skill he needs to survive on the road. We must also ensure that he is mentally and physically competent to cope with complex and rapidly changing traffic situations under all conditions-" 8 Enter Delton VFW Patriotic Collect 68 Pints at National Bank Clinic Sixty-eight pints of blood were contributed at the Red Cross clinic held Monday, Nov. 20. at the National Bank of Hastings. The next clinic will be held on Monday, Jan. 8. at the E.W. Bliss Company. The following clinks are all scheduled on the first Friday of each month, with the February clinic to be held on the 9th at the Masonic Temple at Freeport. This clinic will be sponsored by the Eastern Star members. Mrs. Pearl Ainslie, executive secretary of the Barry Red Cross Chapter, reports Q)at blood donors who contribute five or more gallons of blood become “life” members, a certification which will make it possible for them to get free Red Cross blood anywhere In the United States. A clinic is set for Hastings on March 2, at Delton on April 6 and at Middleville on Ma/ 4. Mrs. D.C. French visited her daughter and family, the Richard Fingletons at Kokomo, Ind.. Thursday through Sunday. Secretary Austin discussed his department's "point—accident study" and the "alcohol coun­ termeasures program." Austifi said points dftne do not explain crash involvement, because 60 percent of all crashes '.’.ere accounted for by drivers who had no points on their records. Drivers with only two points accounted for 14 percent of the crashes Even among high point drivers (those with 12 or more) 80 per-, cent were not involved in a single crash in 1971. The behavior of every driver has an important impact on the crash record compiled in any one year. Austin said there is "un­ deniable evidence that alcohol is the largest single contributing factor in fatal crashes." "Getting to the problem drinker-driver and helping him. control his drinking has obvious benefits to Michigan and the general public in that improved driver behavior should result in a reduction of alcohol-relates crashes." There will be many other beneficial effects, too. Recreation Program Adult Winter Recreation will start in the Thomapple-Kellogg Schools on Dec. 4. Listed below are the nights the various events are scheduled: Monday—Men's Volleyball (at Middle School). Wednesday—Men's Basketball (at High School). Thursday—Women's Volleyball (at Middle School).

May Silence Your Squeaks Many of the annoying squeaks that develop over a period of time in an automobile can be eliminated with a few drops of oil. Motorists generally rely on their local service station to handle lubrication of major mechanical parts, according to auto research experts at Boron Oil Co. Many car owners, however, fail to have their cars lubricated until parts are badly worn and in need of replacement or repair. A can of good lubricating oil will eliminate or prevent irritating squeaks in some often overlooked areas of the car. Door hinges, trunk lid hinges, fuel tank door hinae, and hood lock and hipges all should receive a few drops of oil occasionally. When car windows become difficult to crank up and down, removing the door panels and putting oil on the mechanism inside the door may ease the problem. A drop of oil on the emergency brake cable and the step-on pedal and release handle mechanism will help them operate easier. A spot of oil on the pressure relief valve of the power steering system often eliminates the noise created when the steering wheel is turned as far as it will go. A silicone spray is good for the radio antenna, to inhibit battqry post corrosion and to soften trie sound of a noisy speedometer cable. ’ Gaskets on doors, windows and the trunk lid can be kept “live” and free from sticking by treating them with rubber cleaner and lubricant available at service stations and auto supply stores. ' ’ FILLERS ’’’ Whenever water is added to a car battery in freezing weather, the vehicle should be driven several miles so the fresh water can mix with the electrolyte. Tliis should prevent freezing and subsequent damage to the plates and battery case. Drivers should examine fan belts occasionally when checking the oil, battery or radiator advise auto experts. If belts appear frayed, glazed on inner surfaces, or if stretched so thin they ride on the bottom of pulleys, replace them. *i delightful. MARJOE, Nov.30-Dac.B.

If you have a house pet. make sure that it is not allowed to stay out in the cold too long Should your pet be an outdoor dog, be sure he has protection from the elements, including a properly constructed dog house with sufficient bedding. In addition, do not forget the birds and other wild animals who need our help to sustain life over the winter months. It is ex­ tremely difficult for them to obtain food when the ground is Sunflower seeds or regular bird seed and perhaps some bread crumbs placed on or in a bird feeder or a piece of suet tied to a tree will make the winter months more pleasant for those birds who spend the winter with us such as red poll sparrows, black capped and boreal chickadees downy and hairy woodpeckers,* red-breasted nuthatch and brown creeper. Also here but seldom seen at feeders are the beautiful Bohemian waxwing, grosbeak and Stellar jay. * • Barry County Humane Society PRACTICAL TIP With everyone draining the radiator of theij cars and adding fresh antifreeze, be careful that your pet does not drink from the gutter as the antifreeze runs oownit Antifreeze is very toxic to pob and results in many fatalities each year when it is mistakenly consumed by these pets.

Spark Leakage Causes Ignition Problems A car engine may experience ignition difficulties even after a good tuneup that includes new Sark plugs, points and connser. Detective spark plug wires research experts. Spark leakage quite often I* the culprit. While It is difficult to tell of­ fhand if a wire is defective, spark leakage sometimes can be spotted when the engine is Idling in the dark. If the wire glows, it is an indication of leakage. The spark leakage also will produce a snapping or crackling sound. Even if such leakage is not apparent, it Is advisable to replace spark plug wire* it they are hard, brittle or cracked. A car owner can test the condition of his wires by removing them one at a time from the plugs and holding them about one quarter inch away from the block while the engine is idling. To avoid a shock, the wire should be held with insulated pliers or wrapped with paper. A fat spark jumping the quarter Inch gap al regular in­ tervals means the wire Is not defective. A quick check of the spark plug wires is suggested each time the plugs are inspected which, generally, should be at least every 10,000 miles. Replacing defective wires at the time of an engine tuneup will eliminate a potential cause of ignition dif­ ficulties. HURRY!

Prelude to Kids ’ Super Saturday I Felt is Glued—Experimentation; and imagination are necessary in i creating the proper expression as I a piece of felt is glued ever one] Puppet Workshop The creative genius of Donald Battjes Jr. is evident the moment you step inside his attractively designed two story studio. Battjes, the "Gepetto” of Grand Rapids, is a young man whose talent has brought him acclaim not only for nis clever and educational puppet productions, but also for the interior design of several specialty shops in the Grand Rapids area. One of his newest ictions. "The Merry Miss Adventures of Winnie Witch,” will appear in Hastings, Dec. 9 at Central Auditorium. A native of Battle Creek, he attended Hope College in Holland and furthered his studies in the field of architectural design at a school in France. It was in France where he constructed his first puppet theatre and became actively interested in the art. After returning to the United States, Battjes received his degree at Hope. "This seems to combine everything that I love,” Battjes said. "Music, theatre, designing of sets, even the creation of the fantasy and the puppets, these are all creative outlets which culminate into each production.” Diana Johnson and Dorothy Megan, co-chairmen of the Super Saturday children’s Christmas show, had the opportunity to visit Battjes at his northeast Grand Rapids studio where they were escorted on a grand tour of the workshop. Up to ten people are employed pgrtime when production is in full swing. •’It’s like being in fan­ tasyland," commented Mrs. Johnson as she viewed a multitude of three-foot red and hand puppets attached in rows from the‘ceiling. An array of brilliant colors greet the eye as one views the many characters; expressive eyes, flamboyant chorus girls, little red riding hood and toy soldiers. As the idea for a production is conceived, the characters are sketched and pinned to a bulletin board. The lavishly designed puppets and costumes are men imaginatively constructed from every conceivable material. "Most of this I learned from experimentation," Battjes remarked. "It is a matter of the right expression and effect/’ Battjes tapes each production adapting music from the classical to show tunes as well as intertwining special effects.

Even if you are a veteran snowmobiler, take time at the beginning of the season to review the techniques of maneuve— the machine on a level, sn field-this is basic for safe snowmobiling. safe Another basic for snowmobiling is making sure _____ __ _ _____ ___ that your vehicle is___ in top working condition. The makers of oil suggest that you have your sled checked by a reputable dealer at the beginning of the season to be sure that it is "winter ready.” After your machine has been checked out, review the preoperative checks Skiers aren’t the only people who are watching the sky around this time of year for mat first flurry-so are the snowmobilers. Snowmobiling is rapidly becoming the most popular, of all winter sports the whole family can enjov. It offers excitement (one en­ thusiast describes it as “a combination of boating, skiing, motorcycling and sledding") and it is easy to learn. The latter/ however, can be a dangerous advantage because, while the machine is easy to operate and control on level ground it takes Sactice to master handling it on Is and over uneven terrain. Many a novice snowmobiler you should make on your machine periodically during the season, which can be found in your owner’s manual. It is nelpul to list the parts you should check and keep the list with your tools right on the snowmobile: Throttle and Brake Controls— should be checked before each run. Drive Belt—should be checked before and after every run for cracks, chips or wear. Track Alignment and Ten­ sion-should be checked once or twice a month. Looseness and improper adjustments can cut track life in naif. If the track is too tight it produces too much friction. If you are planning an ex­ tensive trip, plan for emergen­ cies. Carry extra fuel in which you have pre-mixed your Snowmobile Engine Oil and indude a tool kit with a flashlight, wrenches, screwdrivers, pliers and a tow rope (approximately 15 ft.). The kit can also hold a few spare parts such as a spark plug, drive belt and head and tail light bulbs. Taking a little time at the beginning of the season to shape up your machine and review safety precautions and rules of the road will mean a more en­ joyable and safe season of snowmobiling. Skis—should be checked for proper alignment before each run. . Head and Tail Lights—should be checked before each run. Nuts and Bolts—should be examined weekly for tightness. Consult your owner’s manual for all parts that should be checked on your particular machine, including those that should be lubricated regularly. Fuel—should be checked before each run. Most snowmobiles are powered by a two-cycle engine*, so it is necessary to mix oil with your gasoline, in the ratio recom­ mended by the manufacturer.

The guvs went on down to the mines and did some exploring in them and brought back quite a collection of relics. Shannon, Shane and I didn’t go on down the other side as it was very steep and rugged Just going to the very top of a mountain was quite an experience for me. It was something I'd always wanted to do and I had done it for the first time that day. It’s had to describe the feeling it gave me, just sitting there on the ridge of the mountain with a valley on each side, the peakes of moun­ tains all around and a view of Knik Arm toby on d Un­ fortunately, a low cloud ceiling had moved in but it was very beautiful anyway. „ That afternoon, we' picked up MOPS UNITED METHODIIT CHURCH Ml a.

It had started to rain by this time so Sharon stayed in the car with Shane, who was sleeping, and read a book, since she had been here before. There was a mine shaft located about a third of the way up the mountain and it was quite easy to reach. But there was a house and another shaft about another third at the way up the mountain that weren’t so easy to get to. I had started climbing a steep rocky wall and decided it was too dangerous for me and headed back do^h. Jon came along and encouraged me to go on with him. (I was quite concerned about Shannon, who had gone on ahead with LeRoy and Ricky) Jon and I came to a cable and pulled ourselves hand over hand up the mountain. I was nearly to Hie path that led to the house when I turned around and looked down. I just stood there, hanging on ’.o that cable with all my strength, wondering how in the world I was going to get back down now that I was up there. I also wondered what my mother, who is afraid of height, would have thought if she could have seen us all up there.

EDWARD'S CATHOLIC CHURCH Breadway end Center Willard H CurtH and Harvey O Beach, ministers lead ay. December J ST CYRIL'S CATHOLIC CHURCH Nashville METHODIST CHURCH was tired. I said, "No, I’m scared.’’ They talked me into going the rest of the way to the house since I was almost there anyway. The house was com­ pletely empty except for a huge old cook stove. We had to watch our step as there were boles in the floor where boulders had rolled down the mountain, crashing through the roof, up­ stairs floor and main floor. Going down was easier than I expected, just letting ourselves back down the cable. I was helping Shannon down when he asked me it I was scared. I replied. "Oh, a little." He said, "Well, I’m all the way scared." The boys are good little mountain climbers, considering their ages. They began climbing 2 years ago, when they were only 2 and 4, when we climbed up to an abandoned mine near Hope, a nearly deserted town on the shore of Turnagain Arm. We camped further down in the valley and it continued to rain that nite and all the next day. Jon. LeRoy and Gordon did some more exploring that day while the rest of us all sat around, cold, wet and miserable. The guys shot a marmot while they were out, which we later made into stew. (Quite tasty.) They also decided to go some place where it probably wouldn't be raining, Dawson City, over in the Yukon Territory. After all, it was only about 600 miles away. So we picked up camp again and drove into Palmer. We called the FAA station there and they predicted good weather in Dawson City for the next few days. So we were on our way. We drove all nite and arrived at Dawson City around 1 o'clock the next afternoon. The first at­ traction was the ferry ride across the Yukon river over to the City. This is the only means of crossing the river here and it is at the expense of the Canadian Government. There was a cable for use in the winter. We toured the S.S. Keno, an old paddle wheeler and spent the rest of the afternoon just looking around the City. The next mor­ ning, we visited Jack London’s cabin, where we met a very in­ teresting lady, Mrs. Matthew Watson, who had come to Dawson City in 1900 as a small girl with her parents. She had lived there until 1916 and hadn’t been back until last summer. She said it made her very sad to see the City the way it is now. It was a swinging city of over 30,000 people back then and now is nearly a ghost town, being restored for tourism. Next on the agenda was the Dawson City Museum, the only thing that we had to pay ad­ mission to. but it was well worth it. That afternoon, we attended a historical slide show of the gold rush in the Palace Grand Theatre, toured the Bank of Commerce Gold Room and listened to Robert Service poetry at his cabin. We then visited the cemetery on our drive up to the Hoover Appliance with Recliner of your Choice! Dome, which is a hill, high above the City. From the Dome, we had a complete view of the City, the Sold dredges and the joining of te Klondike and Yukon Rivers. We picked up camp again and headed back to the Alaska-Yukon Border. We decided to visit Eagle, a village 65 miles down a narrow, winding. grave), mountain road, which dead-ends at the Yukon River, where Eagle is located just inside of Alaska. On Ute way, we met some people fishing who were returning from Eagle and they said it wasn’t worth the drive. But we decided we wouldn’t be satisfied until we had been there to see for our­ selves. We don’t regret going one bit. There are 2 parts to the village, the old. historical white part and the Native village, about 3 miles* up the river. We arrived at 10 p.m. and a lady sold us some gas and opened up her Genera) Store so that we could buy some snacks. We then drove up to the Native village. All of the houses in the Native village were built of logs and had either sod or tin 4 roofs. They had fish out drying I and there were fish wheels being built. They also had many sled dogs, some which appeared to be part wolfe, chained in back. Unfortunately, it wasn’t quite light enough to |ake pictures. An Indian man, Willie Juneby, came out and invited us in for "rainwater tea” Some of the other villagers came over and joined us. Willie got out his fiddle and his wife, Louise and Elisah, an<L elderly man who was a fortner chief, danced for us. It was quite an experience. We camped that nite in a scenic canyon on the way back to the main road. We drove al) the next day and arrived home at 9 p.m. that evening. In September, Jon spent quite a few days hunting moose but he didn’t get anything. The season is closed during October but opens again during the month of November. It should be easier to get a moose then as the snow drives them down from the mountains. Hopefully, he will get one then as we rely upon moose as our main source of meat. I picked lots of berries during September. Those available were raspberries, blueberries, moss berries, rosehips and domestically grown strawberries and rhubarb. (Yes,-in Sep­ tember). After the first frost, whici) wasn’t until Sept. 17th in our area this year, lowbush and highbush cranberries are still plentious. (Continued on Page II) '^?Ie£S£ SH/fJC Mf­ foy’- A Tf?l^D5 .

But they decreased gradually after age two in boys and age five in girls Mild in­ fections peaked in preschool and early school years, slowly declined until mid-adolescence, then dropped off ’ abruptly. During the year, most colds occurred between October and May Colds were scarce during June, July, and August.

They are involved with the problems and seek solutions to air and water pollution, garbage disposal, survival of threatened animal and bird life. In fact they want to conserve all of America’s natural resources. Among the active and con­ cerned young people are more than 320,000 enrolled in the 4-H conservation of natural resources program. The effectiveness-of their work is reflected in a case study of one young man who worked four years in 4-H conservation, sponsored na­ tionally by John Deere and supervised by lhe Cooperative Extension Service. John J. Silvia Jr., 18, of Middletown, R.I., concen­ trated his efforts on preserv­ ing and enhancing the life and natural habitat of animals, birds, insects and vegetation. And he skillfully persuaded others around him by word and deed to become involved. In order to carry his con­ servation message more force­ fully to other 4-H members and to various civic groups, the youth took up the 4-H public speaking project. He used his 4-H photography project to tell lhe story of the need for all people to be concerned and do something about conservation. As a result of his avid interest and his effective teaching of younger 4-H members, his 4-H club earned special recognition in 1970. Now a University of Maine freshman planning a career in wildlife management and con­ servation, Silvia also earned one of six educational schol­ arships of S7Q0 each provided by John Deere in 1971. Again in 1972, John Deere is making available to mem­ bers a maximum of fouu medals of honor per county and an all-expense-paid trip to the 51st National 4-H Con­ gress in Chicago, Nov. 26-30, for the slate winner. At the National 4-H Con­ gress, representatives of the donor will present six educa­ tional scholarships of $700 each to national winners. Chibs carrying on out­ standing conservation programs receive certificates of merit. And a $50 cash award is provided for one county in each state reporting the most outstanding 4-H conservation program. This award is to be used for further work in the 4-H conservation of natural resources program. For information about lo-‘ cal 4-H conservation activities contact the county extension agent or the state 4-H office. crippling, and it is DANGEROUS to treat yourself for arthritis.

Arthritis: A Blight On The Land To some people arthritis may be just an annoying combination of aches and pains in the joints. These are either the unln(ormed-vr the lucky ones. To millions of others, it is a major agony to themselves or to loved ones. And to the nation as a whole, it is a staggering blight on the economy. According to S>vemment figures, close to M Ilion is lost to the nation’s economy each year liecause of the disease. Arthritis, the country’s number one crippling disease, actually is a variety of diseases The cruelest, most severe type is rheumatoid arthritis, which afflicts some five million people. Two variations, one sudden and violent in its attack and the other relatively mild, strike children in the form known as juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. Osteoarthritis, also called degenerative joint disease, particularly affects older people. Gouty arthritis, with al least a million victims, is an especially painful form. Its agonies are felt in the large joint of the big toe at 75 per cent of those sufferers. Other forms of arthritis include bursitis, a painful affliction most often felt in the shoulder, and scleroderma, a disease of the body’s connective tissues. Altogether, arthritis claims some 17 million victims in lhe United States-with about one in every 11 persons and one out of every four families affected. Each year, a quarter of a million new victims are added to the rolls. The cause* of most forms of * MILLER REAL ESTATE arthritis are unknown, and ex­ cept for one—gout—they cannot be controlled. However, noted John Farquharson, President of The Michigan Chapter of The Ar­ thritis Foundation, all of them can be helped. For victims of lhe disease to get this help, he emphasized, it is absolutely essential for their condition to be properly diagnosed-"and without delay”when signs and symptoms ap­ pear. Farquharson explained that aches and pains around joints can mean many different things. For example, he noted that acute or chronic arthritis can be caused by bacteria invading those taints. Those bacteria, detected and identified by laboratory procedures, can be fought suc­ cessfully by drugs, thus stopping the infection and avoiding joint damage. ’’But antibiotics do not help rheumatoid arthritis,” Farquharson added. ’’The treatment measures which do help, help most when started early. The average rheumatoid arthritis sufferer stalls around, and waits about four years after first symptoms appear before seeking proper medical care. Many people are crippled needlessly." In stressing that much misinformation has grown up around arthritis, Farquharson pointed out that the disease IS a serious one; that is IS NOT mostly a disease of the elderly; that a great deal CAN be done in controlling pain and in preven­ ting. correcting and reducing With Backer So Easy to Put Up...

The collection boxes installed at lhe rear of the post office are being used by many customers. The collection boxes north of the Post Office are accessible from the driver’s side of the car. They should be approached from Thorn Street and exit onto (hurch Street.

Committee chairmen are Deb MacMillan and Lynn Kennedy, on Publicity Lissa Searfoss and Joyce Gilbert on make-up, Ann Wimbely on tickets and Sherry Voss on the prop committee. The members of the set committee are Jim Cullen. Jerry Merrill, Wayne McClellen. Brian Shade, Marc Jogielo, and many others . "Family Portrait" is an unusual play, recreating the variety of feelings and emotions which may have surrounded Christ his entire life, but especially during his three-year ministry. This idea conies from the Book of Mark, Chapters, vs. 1-6, which basically says that Christ and his ideas were rejected by his oxyn people. Christ never actually appears in the play, but His family and friends are there, portraying greed, jealousy and anger at the attention Christ's new teachings attract.

The Pontiac Jaycees have launched a Statewide campaign to obtain 350,000 signatures to petition the U.S. Congress to amend Federal laws to permit states to establish stricter standards than those set by the U.S. government. The campaign Is also to inform Michigan citizens about the difference in meat standards at the Federal and Slate level. The Hastings Jaycees will condsct their petition drive Tuesday and Wednesday, Dec. 12-13. and they ask every con­ cerned citizen to sign. Some of the meat differences: Federal standard permits use of hearts, tongues, tripe, melts, stomachs, udders, lips, ears, snouts, spleens, esophagi, glands, bladders, paunches and salivary glands for hot dogs, sausage, bologna and luncheon meats. Michigan permits use of only skeletal meat, which is any clean edible part of striated muscle, including head meat and cheek meat. No meat byproducts are permitted. Federal sausage permits up to 10 percent added water, cereal fillers, concentrated soya protein to be added to the product, permits use of up to 15 percent beef fatty tissues; no minimum protein requirement. Michigan Grade 1 Sausage may consist of only skeletal fresh meat prepared from the animal carcass; no water added; no vegetable protein, cereal or vegetable flours or soya flour; permits up to four percent non­ fat dry milk used as a binder, provided the product is not labeled ’’all meat”; no beef fatty tissue, and must contain at least 12 percent protein. Federal fresh sausage permits 50 percent trimmable fat; 3 percent added water. Michigan’s fresh sausage contains not more than 45 percent trimmable fat; may contain no water or ice. Federal law makes no distinction between hamburger and ground beef. Fat content may be up to 30 percent; seasonings are permitted, up to 25 percent cheek meat is allowed. Federal may use up to 15 percent poultry in sausage products. Goat meat is also permitted. Michigan’s hamburger may be made only from skeletal meat, up to 30 percent fat; ground beef may contain up to 20 percent fat. No seasonings permitted except monosodium glutamate, if properly labeled on package. No cheek meat is allowed.

A salute and a tip of the taxpayers battered old hat to the Pay Panel that ordered a two year freeze on the salaries of top ad­ ministrative officials, State legislators and other top state govern­ ment officers Although this decision startled, it undoubtedly made them rather solid with Mr. John Q Citizen who foots the bill. At a time when the Slate is pinched financially, there would seem to be no justification for pay increases that would add thousands upon thousands of dollars to an already overburdened budget. Michigan legislative pay schedules already rank well to the top of any in the nation and other salaries are certainly far from penurious. A decision such as this coming from a state agency helps to restore confidence in government , • The launching of Apollo 17 Thursday evening brings to an end a remarkable decade of space exploration. If all goes well, this craft, carrying Navy Cmdr Ronald E. Evans, Harrison H. Schmitt, a geologist and Navy Capt Eugene A Ceman as members of the crew will make the most difficult moon landing yet attempted and will carry out the most ambitious program of exploration yet attempted, before returning earthward again in the command module, for a splashdown in the Pacific southeast of Samoa on Dec. 19. AU of these Apollo missions, with one exception, have gone so smoothly that we have come to regard them as merely routine. The fact Is, however, that they are tremendously complicated, and depend for success on the perfect functioning of thousands of intricate Sts and faultless teamwork on the part of hundreds of specially ined technicians. During actual missions there has been no loss of life, and this speaks weU for the careful advance planning that have provided back-up procedures in case some bit of mechanism malfunctioned Substantial segments of the public regard these missions as something in the nature of elaborate stints, and believe the money expended should have been put to more practical use. However, practical benefits from the entire space program have already been considerable and are likely to become even more so during years ahead in the form of new products, improved manufacturing techniques and the formation of new industries with consequent additional employment based on the research and discoveries of the Apollo program.Over the years, the United States economy is likely* to receive very satisfactory ' dividends'* from the expenditures made in connection with space research We have accomplished in little more than a decade, progress that otherwise might not have been duplicated within a century. % One can only speculate at practical results that may accrue as a result of new information gained concerning the moon and outer space Scientists predict that it will take ten years or more to properly interpret information already on hand Knowledge is a factor that cannot be evaluated in terms of immediate practical gains but the pursuit of knowledge has been one of the charac teristics of a progressive civilization All things considered, the price of the space program, when balanced against values both potential and already received has not been too high A Accompanying Capt. Ceman, in the lunar landing module will be Harrison H. Schmitt, a geologist, and his presence on the three separate excursions on the moon s surface should prove of great value in a scientific assessment of the territory covered. This is the first time that an individual specially trained in geology has been included in an Apollo crew. After the lunar and command modules have rejoined, the £acemen will spend an extra two days in orbit gathering additional ta about the moon s sirface. including extensive observations on the backside of the moon, thirty percent of which will be in sunlight instead of mostly in the dark as on previous missions The voyage of Apollo 17 will last thirteen days, the longest of any of the missions, and, if all goes well, it will bring back a tremendous amount of new data-including 200 pounds of carefully-selected lunar rocks-that should add greatly to our knowledge of the moon and the solar system of which we are a part. In the wake of election returns, there is a general concensus that the so-called “Quota System" for selecting delegates to the Democratic National Convention was a complete fizzle. It turned out to be not a progressive forward step in the democratic process but rather an injustice to all concerned The system was devised, in part by a commission headed by Sen. McGovern, as a means of giving all elements in his party a propor tional voice in its affairs. The theory was good and well [mentioned It was supposed to lead to the nomination of candidates acceptable to every one-a composite that would thus command unanimous party support. Failure of the plan to live up to expectations was due to the im­ possible task of insuring that all the various groups and interests that make up our complex American society were, in fact, given fair representation under the quota system. It failed completely and proved far less effective and less democratic than the old system it was designed to supplant Indeed, the very concept of political quotas is a violation of the right of each political district to make its own free choice of delegates Although some members of the media express concern over the future of a "free press*' in the United States, what they are actually doing is exhibiting a rather soft skin toward criticism. If the proposition of a free press were put up to vote, it is our opinion that the support would be overwhelming But this is not to say that public confidence in the impartiality and objectivity of the media is equally overwhelming Whenever criticism of the press is voiced, certain media spokesmen immediately interpret this as an attempt at intimidation and thus censorship and the right to free expression That, of course, is the bunk Since when has the American press, TV or radio shown any signs of ci aging or intimidation! We have here in the United States the best organized, and most alert news system operated with few exceptions by dedicated, highly trained editors and reporters of any nation in the world The news media exerts great power and influence and there are times when it, too. deserves and should receive criticism for not performing up to the standards expected of it. 1 Criticism of this sort is a far cry from censorship. It is, on the contrary, a "freedom” that the media, itself, shojila welcome and respect The media is not perfect and before indulging in fits of anger as a reaction to criticism, it might be well to first indulge in a bit of honest self analysis and evaluation Perhaps there really might be room for improvement! The media which indulges in critical evaluations of almost every' f?«rt of American government and life has no right to consider itself 1 THE HASTINGS BANNER December «. 1972 The Fair Lasts a Week, But Directors Work the Year ‘Round The Barry County Fair lasts only six days a year for most people, but the nine men who are responsible for it never really stop thinking of how they can improve it and meet for a two or three hour session at least once each month except December. As is true with so many com­ munity service boards, these men are more often critized than commended for their efforts. Salaries are not especially high either with Secretary-Manager Earl McKibbin's pay pegged at a SI ,000 a year, Treasurer Dick Reed gets $300 and President John Townsend receives $150. Directors get $5 a meeting to cover their mileage. Considering the amount of time required to get the job done it would appear no one ia oettinff more than a couple of dollars an hour for their efforts on the fair.

Mr. Richard Tobias, President Hastings Junior Chamber of Commerce Dear Dick: The administration and medical staff of Pennock Hospital would like to publicly thank the Hastings JC’s and others who responded to our emergency request for blood on the evening of Monday, November 6, 1972 That evening it was necessary to do emergency surgery on Mr. Walt Endsley, an employee of Pennock Hospital. Mr. Endsley had lost a considerable amount of blood and an emergency call was sent out through Barry County Chapter of the American Red (Yom and others for O positive blood aonors At the same time, blood was requested through the regional office of the American Red Cross, and several pints were delivered by the Michigan State police from Foote Hospital in Jackson, Michigan In tixe next few hours Mr. Endsley received 13 pints of blood, nine of which were furnished by the American Red Cross and four pints, which were drawn at Pennock Hospital. An additional four pints were drawn from JC members, hospital employees, and others and held in standby The quick response by the Hastings JC’s and others is commendable. During this Thanksgiving season, the medical staff and ad­ ministration of Pennock Hospital would like to thank your organization and the individuals who responded to our need on the evening of November 6. Thank you for taking time to help your Charles Morrill. M.D. Chief of Staff To the Editor: I read with interest the recent article in the Battle Creek paper about our Local merchants buying "center". I would like to add, along with many many others, that one of the most important assets that any community shopping area can have is good service. Nothing was mentioned about this in the article. For example, when clerks are waiting on a purchaser, give your full attention to that person Don't be turning around and To the Editor: My letter is in the form of a poem I wrote it this morning aftec hearing a dog crying and moaning all night.

And so, he'll suffer in the cold, Neglected, hungry, growing old Until one day his heart and breath Are silenced, mercifully, by death I've pondered this the best I can: Which one is beast-the dog or man? Someone Who Heard Richard Fluke Director the serious implications of recent changes in Michigan Department of Agriculture regulation 812 which governs horse racing and set the date of the 1973 Barry County Fair as July 16-23. There was a lot of talk about changing the date but with competition from other fairs not only for attendance, but also for concessions during later weeks, there wasn’t much the board could do but settle on the mid­ July date. The board then proceeded to review a rather large slate of prospects for the one directorship vacancy and decided to appoint Tom Wieringa from Middleville to that post. He has made a considerable con­ tribution to the success of the fair as sheep superintendent for the past several years. The board then cancelled the leases for the two barns near the new highway that are being rented to horsemen. This was done as a part of an effort to improve fairground appearances and building maintenance. The board also made plans to raise the parking rent of Hooker freight in line with increased costs and today's inflation and considered a proposal for sound and photo finish for next years grandstand and horse races. Finally plans were made for booking of entertainment while attending the state fair association convention in Detroit in January. Yes, making a county fair successful in July takes work in November-and most other months too!

I have heard many times that service is very poor to the public in our local Hastings shopping area Clerks may be tired, un­ derpaid, whatever the cause is, we, the public are not to blame when we enter your establish­ ment to buy, thus the merchants may take another longer look at their benefits that they offer to help too. If you get good help, appreciate them. Your business will prosper from it. If you are a merchant that has had your business handed down to you, and your interest lies elsewhere, sell out, get out, don't hurt the image for future generations Whether you like the sound of this or not, it is the truth, service in Hastings slinks. If you are a merchant and reading this, if you are a clerk or worker in any establishment, if you are a buyer, the code still stands, "good service is good business."

S �“The Home Spun Hut” New Shop with Personal Touch The grand opening Friday and Saturday, Dec 8-9 of "The Home Spun Hut" officially signals the start of another Hastings en­ terprise, not so different from others in that it represents a typical dream of its owners who will be retailing stock. The big difference for Mrs. Douglas (Margaret) DeCamp and Mrs Dan (Jola) Royer, whose friendship has inspired a new business relationship, lies in the kind of merchandise they will handle Created by individuals and accepted on consignment, everything on the "Home Spun Hut’1 shelves will have that "TLC" (tender loving care) Margaret DeCamp, in her colonial gown, and Jola Royer, behind the counter, welcome a stamp of approval rather than a factory inspection mark, and it's this “personal touch" thak in­ spired the two local matrons to make their business venture The feeling of a "need in Hastings for an outlet for people to display their talents" spurred the women who both believe there's a market in Hastings for merchandise that's of high quality and uniquely different. And the store’s decor is con­ sistent with their ideas, carried out in the "home spun" look in which bam siding and beams were used for the rustic flair, crates for shelving, and a few antiques added to give a touch of the old fashioned. Mrs. DeCamp and Mrs. Royer received a big assist from their husbands who did all of the remodeling. The end result of their combined skill was a very attractive shop that captured the ideas and mood of their spouses The excitement of Christmas time is reflected in the eyes of a child.

Each year the registry received more than 100 specimens in 1971 and 150 so far this year from various hospitals around the state including the Upper Peninsula. About one half were associated with infant deaths. There Is no charge to the physician or patient for studying the specimen reporting. The registry receives an annual 11.000 grant from the Bureau of Maternal Health of the Michigan Department of Public Health to cover expense*. The placenta of a young woman who had to deliver her second baby by Caesarean section was recently received by Doctor Cipparone. Although her fivepound baby lived, it had been in some difficulty during the delivery. Doctor Cipparone hopes to find some hidden clue in the placenta which will heln the young woman have a healthier pregnancy nest time. .

The woman had had eclampsia, a form of toxemia, with convulsions, while pregnant When he examined her placental tissue he found fatty materials at its base similar to those which could be found in the blood vessels of a coronary ar­ teriosclerotic patient. After further tests he advised her obstetrician to put her on an antior low cholesterol diet If she becomes pregnant again, Doctor Cipparone hopes the diet will aid her in having a successful delivery.

Steeby County Extension Director Happy Plants Can plants have emotions? Are plants capable erf perception? uiese questions and others may be explored as a result of research conducted by Cleve Backster, a lie detector specialist. The scientific com­ munity has always cheated that plants are not capable of pur­ poseful action. That is. plants react only lo external stimuli, rather than from any ihnate source. Laymen have said, for example, that plants grow toward a source of light in order that they may receive more light. Scientists, however, demonstrate that plants grow toward light as a result of a hormone imbalance causing a different rate of growth in the shaded part of the stem. The Washington Post recently reported on Backster’s research. Apparently Backster connected lie detector electrodes to a leaf on an office plant. The following comments from Backster were reported by Washington Post Staff Writer Ron Shaffer. “Surprisingly, the contour •Activities lines of the charts were similar to typical reactions of a human. I thought about testing its reac­ tions and decided to burn it with a match. At that very instant the recording pen bounced off the top of the chart. The initial result indicated that plants have some sort of perceptive ability.” BackxGr goes on to say that plante might be used to thwart airplane hijackers by sensing bad intentions. During war time, plants could be taken on patrol to tip off soldiers of impending ambushes. You may have heard about people who talk to plants and the plants seem to grow more aorously Maybe the reason for i is that plants thrive on carbon dioxide which humans eliminate in the process of breathing. Maybe all you really need to do is breathe on the plant. In photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and wgter are absorbed by plants, which synthesize certain carbohydrates and releases oxygen into the air for humans to use. Whether or not Bffckster's theory proves to be correct, it TREES $xoo IS( Gil Tate The Willows !i’ MILLER REAL ESTATE See Serving Barry County Since IMO 137 W. State St. Hastings Ph.

The most uniform income usually results in the least tax, says Dr. Myron Kelsey. “A family of four with a taxable income of 110,000 one year and nothing the next would pay 1901 in taxes. If, however, that family had a taxable income of $5,000 each year, it would pay just $204 in taxes, or $697 less than in the feast and famine years.” If 1972 was a good year for you, make some major purchases before the first of the year, Kelsey suggests. If it was a poor year, postpone such purchases until 1973. Among the income-balancing purchases you can make now or later are fertilizer, feed, seed, farm supplies, and equipment or building repairs. Some expenses are also deductible as current year business expenses even though not made every year, Kelsey continues. These expenses in­ clude those for miner repairs on improvements and machinery, painting, purchase of small tools and supplies, and, within limitations, costs of soil and water conservation projects, and land clearing. If income is nigh, purchase these now. If low, delay these purchases. "If you need to make capital purchases for next year's operations, it may pay to pur­ chase some items in December. One month’s regular depreciation and the additional 20 percent depreciation can be taken if the item is depreciated for six years or more/’ Kelsey explains. The new job development in­ vestment credit also is available. Dollars spent on investments, however, are not as effective as cash expenses in reducing the current year’s taxes, Kelsey notes. "Finally, watch the timing of sales of livestock and grain that are ready for market at end-ofyear. Obviously, if an animal is ready for market, he must go. But many times, he can be soldin December of January without any change in price.” BARRY FARM CALENDAR . Dec. 4-4H Council, Spouse Annual Dinner, Gull Harbor. Dec. s-TelFarm Cooperaton chack-ln.

Harvest of onions and celery was also completed. Wet fields and rainy weather made harvest difficult for late cabbage, carrot and cauliflower crops. The cabbage crop prospects declined to 931,000 cwt., five Greent below last year Acreage r harvest was reduced to 4,900 as the month closed. Wet fields also lowered yield prospects to 190 cwt. per acre, 5 cwt. less than last year. The cauliflower production estimate remained at 33,000 cwt., 28 percent less than a year ago. Excessive water in fields limited development of late cauliflower and made harvest difficult. Six hundred acres were harvested in Michigan, and yield was placed at 55 cwt. per acre; both are reductions from last year. The 1972 crop of cucumbers for pickles is estimated at 97,800 tons, up 18 percent from last year, but six percent short of the 1970 crop. will pose some very interesting investigations. It could be that plants are aware of "green thumbs" and respond with favorable growth. It could also mean that plants yield more for farmers who apply agricultural limestone and "sweeten the soil” for the plants.

"Sticks” and other former collegiate and professional players took on Olympic teams in Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong and the Phillipines, and its comical to hear Bob tell about the trouble he had getting his legs in a com­ fortable position. The seats are made for the tiny Orien­ tals...We’ll vote Grand Ledge’s "Pep Band” as the loudest group we’ve heard...Grand I^edge High School, with 1,765 kids, operates under two sessions—from 7 to 12 noon and from 12 to 5:30....Brian Smith didn't make the trip to Grand Ledge because of a muscle injury suffered in the Marshall game.... The new basketball rules supposedly were designed to "clean up” the high school game, but so far it hasn't worked out that way. The sorriest exhibition we’ve seen in a long time of arm raising by eagers called for personal fouls occurred at Grand I-edge, and we don't think it was entirely the players' fault. The officials did absolutely nothing about it, although before the season opened it was understood that the rule was to be enforced. Players are charged with raising one arm in sportsman-like fashion, and to lower it in the same way-or they are to be called for a technical foul. No clenched fists, no antics to In­ dicate disgust by the player with the official's call. We seldom get upset over officials' judgment calls-they’re generally right. We do get upset when officials neglect to oo their job by ignoring obvious rule violations. Officials must always be concerned that when they r*give something” to a player or team, they are "taking something’' from the other team. Delton Rally Beats Wayland Delton High’s Panthers overcame a nine-point third period deficit to outscore Wayland, 17-4, in the fourth quarter to defeat visiting Wayland, 46-42, Tuesday, Nov. 28.

Young Saxons Improved, but Drop 2nd Game Showing considerable im­ provement, the Hastings High junior varsity eagers gave the unbeaten Grand Ledge Comets a real ball game Friday night before taking a 75-66 defeat. Grand Ledge started fast and threatened to blow the young Saxons right off the court as they soared to a 184 advantage in the first six minutes, but Coach Bob Bolton’s players never quit and by halftime they had slashed the gap to 40-31. Tom McKeough, who did a fine job all night, went in for a layup with 2:44 left in the third period to tie the score at 47-47. But at that point the Comets spurted again for eight straight and went into That was the story. McKeough led all scorers with 26, Steve Skedgell and Jim Dingman each had 10 for Hastings, Jim DeBroux 9, Jim Feldpausch 5, Ron Armstrong 4 and Gordon Finale 2.

Peters, who came to Hastings in I960 with the Hastings Bliss Division after the Toledo Bliss closed, officially retired Sept. 30th, after 45 years with the company. At that time the entire office staff gave a morning coffee party honoring both Mr. and Mrs. Peters and he was presented with fishing and golf equipment plus a monetary gift. The accounting office personel hosted a dinner party at Middle Villa when Mr. Peters was again the honoree. The Peters have been active in community affairs since coming here. Mrs. Peters having served two terms as president of the Hastings Women’s Club. The following reprint is from the Bliss Co. trade journal a few years ago.— WORKING ON THE theory that the beet accounting is the simplest accounting, Howard A. Peters, supervisor of the cost at the Toledo Division of E.W. Bliss for the last 15 years, has been able to keep control of the myriad of details involved in computing the cost of the presses we build here. The company auditors have, over the years, been able to complete their work with a minimum of trouble, largely through Howard’s efforts. Bom in nearby Grand Rapids, Ohio, Howard attended school there until he was 11 years old when his family moved to Toledo. His schooling was continued at Glenwood public and at Scott High School where he played basketball and baseball. Howard rounded out his education with courses in accounting at Tri­ Slate and Davis busine* colleges, and at Toledo public night school. Outside of a 2 year stint with the old School Savings Clearing House, "Hap”, as he Is known to many, has spent all his working years at Bliss. Starting as a clerk, he moved over to accounts receivable for a time and *o cost accounting in 1939. In 1942, he was appointed to his present job. A lover of all sports, Howard especially likes golf, bowling, and fishing. His reading is confined mostly to periodicals, and motor trips consume most of his vacation time.

This past summer, AMP (Area Mali Processing) was instituted in the Kalamazoo Sectional Center, of which the Hastings Post Office is a part. At that time "Local” and "Out of-Town" collection boxes were placed in strategic locations around the business area and more recently a driveup area at the rear of the Post Office. All mail placed in the local boxes is cancelled here and kept here for delivery. All mail placed in the out-of-town boxes is dispatched, without sorting, to the Kalamazoo Sectional Center uncancelled. This mail will bear a Sectional Center Postmark. This same procedure is being followed in 90other offices in this Sectional Center. With the use of LSM's (Letter Sorting Machines), the mail from these associate offices is processed and the bulk of the mail is dispatched from Kalamazoo the same day. At the present time the Hastings Post Office dispatches mail to Kalamazoo at 5:45 a.m. and 5:45 p.m. daily except Sunday. Mail Is received at 5:M p.m. and 5:30 a.m. daily except Sunday. All First Class mail received on these two trips is delivered that day. Sunday’s and holiday's, mail is dispatched at 11:45 a.m. only. With the recent snow and ice storms we have had reports of customers failing to clear the area of ice and snow in front of mail boxes. This applies both to city and rural customers. Those who receive mail by foot carrier should keep their steps and walks leading to mail boxes free from ice and snow. We have had very good cooperation in the past relative to this problem, and would appreciate your efforts again this year. In a few isolated cases it has been necessary to withhold delivery because of conditions. The carriers wish to thank those who have made their jobs easier and much safer. 15% off our men’s pajamas.

At the request of Solan W. Weeks, director of the Detroit Historical Commission, the Ford Motor Company has agreed to presen e the last remaining stretch of cobblestone street in Detroit, located in an area being cleared for an extensive riverfront project proposed by Henry Ford II. Since this was a type of construction which was once rather extensively used in the attempt to get Michigan “out of the mud,” all those interested in the history of their Slate should applaud the fact that this bit of cobblestone is to be saved from the scrap heap Although Hastings has no cobblestone of interest to historians, we do have here a block of the original brick paving that represented the first attempt here to get our city out of the mud and dust that prevailed when the streets here were dirt or at best, “improved" with an inadequate covering of unscreened gravel This remaining bit of pavement, located on Church Street bet­ ween State Street and the old New York Central tracks, is in sur­ prisingly good condition and is capable of handling anything short of mainline traffic for years to come Therefore, we believe it should be preserved "as is” and not “improved" by resurfacing-or tom up to make way for concrete paving. In fact, this old brick paving is in much better shape right now than some of the concrete paving and resurfacing done long after the bricks in this block of roadway were laid in the late summer of 19Q7. No expense will be needed to preserve this locally historic block of street-Just keep it as it is without any attempt at “improvement."

Doherty, executive vice president of the Michigan Health Council, states: ’Michigan now has two lotteries. One costs 50 cents for a ticket that might win you a million dollars. The other lottery also costs 50 cents for a package of cigarettes but the excessive smokers are taking a chance on losing their health and. in some cases, their lives. "There are no winners except the Michigan State Treasury. The American Cancer Society reports an all-time high of 75,000 lung cancer deaths in 1971. Tne U.S Public Health Service indicates that if it were not for cigarette smoking, practically none of the earlier deaths from lung cancer would have occured as well as a substantial portion of the earlier deaths from chronic bronchitis,’.emphysema, and of cardiovascular origin. The Michigan Tuberculosis and Respiratory Disease Association reports that there were 1,139 deaths in Michigan from em­ physema in 1971 or four times as many as ten years ago “Representative Allen of Ithaca introduced H.B. No. 6351 on Jime 29, recommending an increase in Michigan cigarette taxes of another 5 to 16 cents per Gckage. If Michigan passes such jislation it is likely that gross revenues will eventually reach $200,000,000 annually and more importantly that many Michigan smokers will decide to quit smoking or cut down sub­ stantially on the number of cigarettes they inhale daily.” 5 From Barry Earn MSU Degrees Four student! from Barry County were among the 1,711 who received degrees Saturday, Dec. 2 at Michigan State University 'Doris L.

LHS Debate Invites Area Schools By Pam Dooley The Lakewood Debate team is hosting an invitational tour­ nament all day Saturday, Dec. 9. “We sent out some 60 letters and have had 10 responses so far,” Steve Secor, Lakewood’s debate coach said.

"It wouldn’t look right if one of our teams won after our sponsoring the tour­ nament. Some 20 rooms at the high school will be used for the debate. For lunch during the tournament, refreshments of cokes, baked goods and milk will be available. All profits will go to the debate team. Last Saturday, the Lakewood Debate team traveled to Kalamazoo Central, where they faced eight teams, and cAme away with a 6-2 record.

She had 96 points and the third place winner scored 97. LHS Plans Christmas Ball; Format Style 7 , By Jane Goodemoof The 72-73 Christmas Ball will be held Saturday, Dec. 16.

I’m a widow and I’ve heard that I’ll get 100 per cent of my deceased husband's benefit now. Is this correct? A. This may be true.

Moat widows will receive the increase in their Feb. 3, 1973 check, but this will generally be less than 100 ger cent of the worker s Q. My husband recently died. He had been disabled but never filed for disability on social security. A neighbor told me the new social security law makes him eligible for benefits. How do I get these benefits? A.

All of the deer were heavy, a sign that they have plenty to eat. Of the 56 bucks checked, only two had 10 inch spikes. The rest had from four to nine points-not bad for yearlings. Russ said. One hunter downed an eight pointer that wasn’t old, but it was tough Russ said that was the result of a wound probably the year before. The buck had a shotgun slug in the head or neck area, right under one antler That side of the rack had six points, but it was deformed and much smaller. The slug even had cartilage crowning around it. Russ had 13 illegal deer turned in or reported Officer Willison reminds you died in-the-wool hunters that the ruffed grouse special season is underway, and we’ve got a pretty good population. Hunting is better, too, as you can see the birds better with the foliage gone. Rabbit hunting should be real good. Brent says the rabbit population is really up Thru the Hoop— Rocco Moore, who underwent surgery for a knee injury received in football, has been playing for the Charlotte High basketball team, but now the report is he has a hairline fracture in a foot. Tough going for a fine athlete. Alma High started only one senior against Hastings Friday First Saxon Pin—Jace George, Hastings High 195-pound wrestler, scored Hastings High s first pin in the opening maldb of the 1972-73 season when he defeated Jerry Boggess of Marshall in 4 minutes, 34 night...Dave VanderVeen, a junior, made his first varsity start for Hastings at Grand Ledge and Greg Cole, another 11th grader, made his first varsity start against Alma. Coach Ernie Strong seems pleased with their initial output Jerry Kessenich is the victim of tight, multiple guarding in all his games...Five Alma players and three Hastings eagers fouled out last week. Basketball isn’t a contact sport??? Coach Strong was happy about the way his Saxons came back to win at Alma. And with three starters out of the game, the boys that came off the bench did a fine job. Coach Strong switched to an anticipated halfcourt press in the last period and it worked against the inexperienced Panthers. Hastings had 22 turnovers in the game, but only three in the fourth period. In that quarter the Saxons outrebounded the Pan­ thers, 23-12 and had several key steals to win the game Outdoor Trail—"Beware of early season ice” is the DNR’s cold weather warning to out­ doorsmen Here’s their rule of thumb for ice safety: Two inches, one person , three inches, several people spread out; four inches, general use such as fishing. It generally takes more than four inches of good, solid ice to safely support snowmobiles. As for cars and other such vehicles. "Leave them ashore for safety’s sake," the DNR says Incomplete reports indicate this year’s firearm deer season from the hunter's standpoint was less than fair in the Upper Peninsula, fair to good on the northern Lower Peninsula’s west side, fair on the east side and generally good in the southern Lower Peninsula. Hastings JV’s Lose at Alma Tom McKeough pumped in 18 points, Steve Skedgell 12 and Jim Feldpauach 9 in the Hastings High junior varsity’s losing effort at Alma Friday, Dec 8. The young Saxons dropped their fourth straight, 5fr-49 Alma led 16-19 at the quarter, 33-24 at the half and 38-34 going Into the last 8 minutes of play. Jim Dingman added 6 points to the Hastings cause, Jim DeBroux 2 and Bruce Colvin and Gordon Finnic 1 each Hastings sank 20 out of 55 field goal attempts and 9 out of 17 tree throws. Alma drilled 22 out of 67 from the floor and 15 out of 23 from the line.

PELHAM In this column last week we described the year around ac tivitiea of the Barry Couity Fair Board We told you something about the people on the board and their conscientious efforts to improve the fair This week we would like to discuss some of the major problems the board is facing. Most of them are centered around finances, or more exactly, lack of them. For a number of years the grounds and buildings have been deteriorating Members of the board were well aware of the situation, but there seemed to never be enough money to get things done In fact, the fair loot money for several consecutive years and it was not until a grounds admission charge was established in 1970, the trend was reversed. There has been a small profit since then, but there were still more places to spend the money than money to spend Premium payments were ridiculously low, but little oy little they were raised in the various divisions until now moat have reached a reasonable level in line with current inflation Some of the money was spent on BOOK IT._ HAVE IT...

He was determined not to let the night's unexpected snowfall make him late for work. Ten minutes later he had a heart attack. Why do snow shoveling and heart attacks so often go together? It's because snow shoveling, the hardest physical labor many men do all year, puts a great strain on the heart. The more a man shovels, the more blood his heart demands When his ar­ teries can't supply enough, he has an attack. In addition, the shoveler often tackles the job in frustration or anger This releases a stimulant into his blood stream which causes his heart to work even harder Snow shoveling victims are usually men in their forties or early fifties who have heart or circulatory defects which may have been undetected by physical examinations How can such heart attacks be prevented? The simplest solution: If you are 40 or over, don't shovel snow. Get someone else to do it or use a mechanical snow remover. If you must shovel, take it easy. Should you tire, finish the job later. If you develop a chest pain, call a doctor, then lie down. And always tackle snow shoveling in the right frame of mind. Don't let yourself become anxious or angry. You may be a few minutes late for work, but at least you'll get there. Hie University of Michigan Institute for Environmental Quality is one of the few institutes of its type in the country.

The board stretched their funds as far as they could and even borrowed for improvements, but there just wasn t enough to go benefit from the business a good fair brings to the commwiity, and a lot of people simply enjoy going to the fair each year. The group hopes for some donations in the hundred dollar category, but would like to see others help in what ever way they can best serve. Just a little from a lot of people adds up. For those who can give a little time rather than money there are great opportunities and rewarding work. Dozens of needs have been outlined whereby any individual or group in the county could make a contribution within their means or ability. When the new highway was built other people took notice of the deteriorated condition of the buildings. Department of Agriculture Administrators in Lansing suggested improvements will have to be made. Community minded citizens such as Dr Larry Blair, Jack Smith and Dick Tobias took special notice and along with fairboard members Ken Miller and Dick Reed and Extension Agents Art Steebv. Bill Kirkpatrick and Jim Pelham took time off to study the situation and what might be done about it. It appears 115,000 and a lot of donated labor would be needed before next year's fair to meet the more pressing priorities. But where does that kind of money come from-1 Several thoughts about how to solicit $15,000 were discussed. It could come in the form of a $1 each from 15,000 residents, or $10 from 1.500 donors or maybe a $100 from each of 150 people There are merits to each approach, but it seems as though a real great number of people in the county have reason for hoping the fair can continue to improve One of the best reasons for having a good county fair is for the benefit of our kids and grandchildren in 4-H Club and other youth work.

This is especially true when young children are involved. A good rule of thumb is to allow the pet to be handled and loved for a short time (15 or 20 minutes perhaps) and then put it in a quiet isolated (from children) area for an hour and a half or more. A little play goes a long way with a new and delicate pet. A playful pet may not look delicate, but too much play can be very harmful indeec Barry County Humane Society �Cbicat Enchiladas!— Okie Strand Developing New Brochure by members al tbe Hastings tb« Spaaloh Christman (Navidad) Party (FieaU), held fan the HHS cafeteria.

The finished brochure, with the first Issue scheduled for January, w01 be quite handsome and fit the overall British theme being In­ stalled in the OMe Strand's motiff and advertising. British Union Jacks will be featured and the city its self referred to as "Hastings-on-the Thornapple," in keeping with many small Erqjlish towns that add the name of the river or high­ way on which they are located to the overall name. "The agency is quite intrigued with this Idea and so am I," said Bennett. "They point out that the name ‘Thomappie* is growing in prestige every day in western Michigan, not just from the beauty stand-point but also from the fact that as the river flows north into Kent County it passes through some of the finest new residential sub-divisions in the area. A Thomappie address or business name is much to be desired and here in Hastings its ours for nothing. It just might be a theme or advertising slogan the whole community could jump on."

Tbe ice didn't appear strong enough to permit a man to walk out to the duck, but it was too thick to break in a reasonable time to get a boat through. Finally London took the aluminum boat onto the ice and pushed it ahead of him as he walked to the dock about 158 yards out in the lake. He got the duck and brought it back, then he and Mahar returned it to the owners who live on the lake. DNR men often are called on to rescue wildlife, and to a man are glad to do it.-Banner photo.

Owning and driving a car cm be safe and more economical by remembering to do many little things that are ordinarily overlooked. Some helpful hints recom­ mended by auto research ex­ perts. -Keep doors locked when driving to prevent intruders, purse snatchers and others from lumping into the car when slowed by heavy traffic or stopped at a traffic signal. Locking doors from the inside also prevents them from flying open if the outside button is depressed in the event of a sideswipe or collision. -Turn off all accessories and headlights before starting the car. These add to the heavy correct drain of the starter, greatly reducing the power left in the battery for the hot spark needed to start the engine. Such excessive loads on the battery’s output shortens its useful life. -Turn on the courtesy lights inside the car while using headlights en route to work on a foggy or overcast morning They wul serve as a noticeable reminder to turn off the headlights when the car is parked in brighter daylight.

Dec 23. Postmaster Stanley Thompson said today **l want Io commend the Hastings post office employees for an e stra-ordinary job of processing and delivering the avalanche of Christmas mail with dispatch and efficiency.*’ Thompson said. He said the general public also helped to provide an efficient Christmas mail operation by mailing early in accordance with a series of recommended mailing dates which were announced earlier this year. This public cooperation has been especially helpful this year because with few exceptions postal employees will be off on both Christmas Eve and Christmas Day so that they may enjoy the holiday weekend with their families. The post office will be closed from 12 noon Saturday, Dec. 23 through Christmas Day. Collection of outgoing mail will be made and dispatches sent to the Kalamazoo Ml SCF as posted on the boxes and in the outer lobby.

Her other son, Jack, and his family reside in Chicago by R. M. C. Christmas is a religious Festival of tremendous significancealong with Easter, the greatest in the Christian Calendar. AD of the pagentry that has developed through the years in connection with the Yuletide, including, the lights, the decorated trees, the Santa Claus legend, the Christmas carol programs and the giving of gifts and exchange of greetings stem from this central fact. It is the religious significance alone that makes Christmas something very* special The Christmas Story is an old and familiar one and nowhere told more beautifully than in the Gospel according to St. Luke which is reproduced here as a special Greeting and Word of Good Cheer all of us here on The Banner to all of you’ THE CHRISTMAS STORY "And it catne to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the dty of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) to be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child “And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were ac­ complished that she should be delivered And she brought forth her firstborn son. and wrapped him in swadtflina clothes, and laid him in a manger. twause there was no room for them in the inn And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night, And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of me Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. “And the angel said unto them. Fear not; for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great toy, which shaD be to all people For unto you is bom this day in the City of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; “Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men “And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from the into heaven, the shepherds said one to another. Let us now go even* unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us. And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger •’And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning the child. “And all they that heard wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart And the shepherds returned glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as ft was told unto them * Voice i— —i I---------------- OF THE PEOPLE —J To the Editor: 1 would like to make an appeal to the residents of Barry Co., to please sign the petition's cir­ culating by means of the local merchants and local banks The petition is a plea to the Great .Atlantic and Pacific Tea ComCny to keep our A 4 P store. re in Hastings, from closing in mid-January, 1973. Your signature and support is needed by Dec. 21. Won't you help to keep this company from going out of business in our com­ munity We need the competition in the grocery business to keep the prices down, here in Hastings Also the jobs that the store provides for our neighbors, and lower prices that you and I have shared in. for several years The people of this community can make or break a store in Hastings, by shopping in near-by cities What are you going to do about this problem, we, as a community, are facing? You can make your voice heard on these petition's being cir­ culated in Hastings. NOW! Sincerely, Marie E Chamberlain R2 Hastings To the Editor Is the Barry County Road Commission on strike? One would never know by looking or driving over county roads. What has happened arc we open under new management and they don't know what to do or how to fix roads*’ 1 haven't seen a road truck since it snowed let alone before all the snow and ice hit These damn roads were so bumpy it was hard to hold your car on them Could someone please take time to explain why our roads are in such bad shape” I understand there is no money to keep our roads up lo standard I think we need to Jar our county commissioners loose from their chairs and get them out over some of these rough, bumpy and »cv roads with their own cars If 4......... THE HASTINGS BANNER they had to travel in their own cars rather than county pick-ups they too would gripe. I • It seems that we could have a little sand on some of these bad hills that our fantastic bus drivers have to travel over. It takes a good driver to handle a big bus on some of these stinken roads So lets thank God we in Barry County do have good bus drivers Would like to hear from somebody at the road com­ mission on why our roads are like they are. So you may rest assured I’D watch The Banner for any ex­ planation that might* be available, that is if anybody still manages the Barry County Road Commission. Yours truly. Disgusted To the Editor: I.would like to thank aU the people who were involved in making the Christmas Parade a success A special thanks to Robert Johnson, of the Chamber of Commerce, and all the members of my committee who gave their time to this project, and who did a fine job Special recognition to the Moose. Rotary, Lions, Jaycees, C.B Club, Kiwanis, Key* Gub, and all other organizations for their help in seeing that every thing went along smoothly Thank you to all the Hastings merchants and industries who donated money to help defray the costs of the parade. 1 think anyone who saw the parade would have to say thank you to all of the participants, if it were not for them, the parade itself would not have been possible Sincerely, Donald W Spencer To the Editor: Competition brings lower prices, especially in food products The three large good chain-stores in Hastings have done more to bring down the prices of food than consumers realize The A 4 P store, after many Special Police Patrols Set for Holidays ' THE OLD AND THE NEW - All over Michigan, new symbol signs are gradually replacing traditional word signs under a nationwide highway safety signing program.

Like Kroger and Felpausch, the customers get a square deal at A 4 P They not only give courteous service but will replace any article that is not satisfactory to the customer Let's all back the petition movement to keep A 4 P in Hastings If enough people arc interested to sign the petitions it will have a bearing on the company's decision whether to enlarge their present store or build a new and larger store. Respectfully, Arthur T Kidder R2 Hastings To the Editor: After due consideration, I felt obliged to draft a reply to the anonymous member of the WRL who wrote to the McGovern supporters. (The Hastings Banner, November 29, page 4.) First, I am not a McGovern supporter 1 am not a Nixon supporter, either, so hopefully I may be qualified to comment The writer stated that mankind could “come to its senses" and America could "come home” if we solved the world’s problems, for "the world’s problems are our problems ’’ In my opinion, the biggest of "our problems" is that too many of us feel we must solve the world's problems. The war in Vietnam is excused as an effort to solve the world's Communist problem Many considered this problem so serious that they were willing to seize American citizens and force them to fight this problem Thousands are dead, but we still have the Cuiunuau»l proUem. We could bankrupt the American economy and still have a world hunger problem, because out Gross National product divided by the world population is around a dollar per person. Many of McGovern's sup­ porters feel that we should re­ order priorities I agree but net on specifics I think our priorities are backwatds, wiui world problems set fir»i, problems next, and down the list to personal problems at the last In my opinion, each of us should solve his personal problems first and work upward, to the limit of his own personal resources. I personally cannot justify the seizure of other people’s means and lives to solve “world problems." Such is the procedure of dictators and totalitarian collectives such as the Com­ munists, and if we ever become as obusive of individual rights as they are. what are we defending? Sincerely, Frederick G Schantz To the Editor: 1 can't see why the ADC makes these people in Hastings go without fuel oil and hot water for their little family and makes them wait for their checks to come. Sometimes they hold them back and then the people have no food for their babies and poor heat in their homes. How can they treat these people so poorly? There are some on ADC paying big money to have nice homes and they have other children living in their home so they can collect more money from the ADC. I wish they could call on some of these people who have a man working every day and they can afford a snowmobile to ride for him. Boy! That’s a nice way to collect ADC. My son only works one day a week and they think he shouldn't have any help from the ADC They should try and find better jobs to help some of these people without work on ADC, clean streets and walks off to earn extra money so their family will have a nice Christmas and good things to eat. A Citizen To the Editor: Tliis is a reply to One Who Reads: Evidently my poem “hit home." Otherwise, One Who Reads wouldn't have been so upset by it. The dog I referred to wasn't crying all night because he heard sirens or strangers in the yard How many sirens blow all night, and how many strangers prowl through people's yards night after night? I've heard this dog crying for quite a few nights (and I've never heard a siren). I’m sure he’s been crying because he's hungry or cold (or botik) As for my being too "cowar­ dly" to talk to the dog's owner-1 have talked to the dog’s owner Calm down. One Who Reads I doubt that you are the owner of the neglected dog I mentioned (Probably you have one of your own) Did you write your letter because my poem reminded you of the way you treat your dog? Someone Who Heard PS. One Who Reads (and should think a little more) mentioned cat fights. What do cat fights have to do with a neglected dog*’ Special holiday traffic patrols will be operated by the Michigan State Police for the Christmas and New Year weekends, Col. John R. Plants, department director, reported.

Freezing, Long Storage May Not Harm Canned Food Freezing, surface damage and long periods of storage do not usually harm canned foods, according to a Michigan State University consumer in­ formation specialist. During freezing, the contents of a can expand. This puts strain on the can seams and causes the ends to bulge. Miss Ada Shinabarger explains. If the ends return lo their normal, flat ap­ pearance after thawing, the contents are safe to use. If not. air has gotten into the can and the contents will not keep. Freezing may change the texture of some canned foods. Miss Shinabarger reports. Creamy canned foods may curdle or separate, but heating usually restores thb original consistency, she explains Can damage, such as rust or dents, does not affect the con­ tents. as long as there are no leaks. If the can leaks, the ends bulge, or the cuntents have an abnormal odor or appearance, discard the can without testing Die contents, the specialist ad­ vises. Extremely long periods of storage at high temperatures may result in some loss of color, flavor, appearance and nutritive value, but the food will remain wholesome For best results, use canned goods within a year of purchase. Miss Shinabarger suggests. Unused portions of canned foods may be left m the can after opening but must be refrigerated. Acid foods, such as grapefruit or tomato juice, may dissolve a little iron from the can if kept in the refrigerator for a long time. This may cause a metallic taste but is not harmful. In fact. Miss Shinabarger points out. some people like that taste and think tomato, juice canned in glass last *s “funny.” If you are not going lo ua* an acid product within a day. empty the contents into a different con­ tainer, she suggests Sulfur produced during processing may cause' some canned foods to be markq0 with brown, blue or black mottling. This discoloration Is harmless. Miss Shinabarger says The Food Additives Amendment of the Federal Food. Drug and Cosmetic Act prohibits the use of food containers which could transfer poisonous or harmful substances lo the food in the can.

Have Relatives in Vietnam Make Calls Michigan Bell advises relatives and friends of servicemen in Vietnam to plan ahead for overseas telephone con­ versations during the holidays. "The most effective way to reach that friend or relative in Vietnam is to arrange to have him or her place the call from there," explained Kenneth L. McKee, 'local Michigan Bell manager. McKee said that reaching a particular serviceman quickly by calling from the U.S. ts .almost impossible because he is likely to be on duty or hard to locate. Because of those difficulties, arrangements have been made again this year to permit ser­ vicemen to call home when most convenient for them.

This state approval includes meeting requirements set up by the fire marshall and health department Delton School District voters last June approved a four mill, 14,015,000, bond issue to construct a new high school on the school land overlooking the present schools to the south of the present buildings.

"They did well in the clutches,” Coacn Strong said, adding that there were areas where the team seemed to relax-especially at the point where they were 10 points ahead. "I felt Jerry Kessenich did and excellent job again, and rebounds.'* contributed 23 Hastings outrebounded the Blue Devils, 60 to 47, which probably made the difference in the game. That made up for Hastings’ 37 turnovers. "I thought that Dave Black in his first real varsity test did a good job,” Coach Strong added. He also had praise for Tom Kenyon who came up with 11 rebounds.

Winston Merrick, who has served as secretary of the Barry County Armed Forces SendOff Association, reports that with the ending of the large military draft contingents and eventual elimination of the draft entirely, the association has been dissolved. The association was formed in October of 19M to recognize young men leaving for service. ' For a period draft calls were large ana chartered buses were used to take them to Detroit for induction. Various groups put on lunches at the Hastings Lecion Post for the men and their families 1-ater, as the calls and numbers of draftees were reduced, the men were en­ tertained at local restaurants prior to departure. However, when regular buses were used, this proved impractical. A small gift had also been «ven to each young man, and is practice was continued. Now the local Selective Service Board has been combined with Allegan meeting in Kalamazoo Association officers, after contacting the veterans* groups, decided to close out the Armed Forces SendOff program. During the past six years about 1900 has been used, with a final balance of S10I.80. This money had been raised by solicitation of businessmen and other interested individuals. Half of this balance will be sent to the Remember-AVet Fund for Canteen Books, and the balance will go to the patient emergency leave fund at the Veterans Ad­ ministration Hospital at Fort Custer Other Association officers have been James Blodgett, chairman, Louis Brown, vice chairman, and Steve Paavo, treasurer MONDAY BOWLERETTES SlaMings: Jim Barr Tira 34. bating* Flltar* 37.

Use Compressed Air With Care Compressed air u important to the success of many jobs, but there are precautions which must be taken when using it, according to the Michigan Department of Labor. Never point an air hose at anyone, including yourself, in fun or to remove dirt from clothing, the department warns A strong blast of air can dislodge an eye from its socket, rupture an eardrum or enter body openings and cause excruciating internal injuries A stream of compressed air coming from a hose at 40 psi can propel metal or wood chips at speeds that can injure ages and face. The department says that compressed air should never be used without adequate eye protection Where it is essential to use compressed air in cleaning dirt and chips from cavities, use the proper nozzle on the air line and wear eye protection. Maintain air pressure at 30psi or less (10 or 15 psi may be sufficient) and either place a screen around the work area or make sure that other workers are out of range of flying particles. Store hose coils off the floor to avoid creating a tripping hazard and report or correct leaks and defects, the department advises. Nearly one-quarter of all Michigan lawyers studied at The University of Michigan.

The first light of Christmas that usually comes to mind is the starlight of Bethlehem. Many of our Christmas carols sing of the Star of Bethlehem. The Star of Bethlehem is used often in decorations to represent the night of Christ’s Birth. From the small stars atop a million Christmas trees in our homes to the huge ones erected on hillsides to shine down on big cities, all are reminders of that "star of wonder". The custom of carrying a star about on Christmas eve is obin many European countries. In Rumania the star, or "STEAU”, is decorated with numerous little bells that tinkle as they travel, heralding the approach of the singers. In Norway, this custom used to be performed by Star Boys who collected food and monev as they went from house to house. The children of Poland were familiar not only with the Star Boys, but also with the STAR MAN. Usually the Star Man was the priest of the village in disguise. He asked about their behavior during the past year, and if they had been good they wore rewarded with presents. Each year around Christmas time the large planetariums in our country offer an interesting lecture on the Christmas sky. The mysterious Star of Bethlehem is set against the actual background of the sky as scientists say it appeared on that night nearly two thousand years ago. The data from ancient documents have been coupled with the scientific knowledge of today's astronomers. \ Read these 2^^^1ST0PJ-do's ancj Don-fs" From • ' Chief of Police Richard Senior!

Pelham Extension Agricultural Agent For the past two weeks we have published articles telling of County Fair problems and ac­ tivities It is quite clear the fair board or no individual makes a profit from the undertaking and in fact John Townsend of Bellevue, president of the board, takes friendly but sharp issue with a statement made in this series at articles that no member or director makes as much as $2 an hour for his efforts in con­ nection with the fair. He says all directors work long hours during fair week as well as meeting and planning throughout the year and the small amount paid covers no more than mileage and expenses. Their work is pretty near gratis. If no one makes a profit then why hold a fair? John has a special selfish reason. He wants his five children to have the experiences associated with exhibiting their horses and other projects and family camping at the fair. That’s why he takes time from his busy schedule as general manager of Archway Cookies in Battle Creek. Fairs are an instrument for disseminating informal education Just as our schools provide formal and certain forms of informal education the county fair provides a learning ex­ perience that is uniquely dif­ ferent from other educational opportunities. It's not just the experience of winning or com­ peting. but an experience in preparation and organization The fair offers an opportunity to 4H*ers and other youth to show — - PELHAM.•.discusses future of fair... what they have accomplished with their own efforts. Parents get highly involved too. and many outstanding herds of livestock had their foundations rooted to an unusually good animal acquired as a 4H project. Often parents couldn't afford to buy thiAuality for themselves, but for a boy or girl they could come up with the price of Just one or two animals. Horse exhibits have been prominent at the fair for some years now. Most are owned by club members who live in the country but are not farmers. It's hard to measure how much a club member learns about animal behavior, nutrition and breeding from this project, not counting the more obvious pleasure and IflrWmramTOWrmm 7 _ a Buy A i Christmas Tree?

Of course, the important thing is what effect these activities have on kids. A visit to the fair will reveal these are unusually good kids! Profanity, vulgarity and instigators of serious problems which have become common place In our society just are not to be found among the youthful exhibitors. Social ex­ periences of getting acquainted with others of similar interest should not be overlooked. County fairs may not be an absolute necessity to good country 4H club programs, but they certainly serve as a vehicle toward that end! Among many other reasons for having county fairs are com­ munity pride and long established traditions of providing amusement along with education for the older as well as the younger generation. The admission at a (hive in theater is greater than attending the fair and there is plenty of free en­ tertainment on the inside Elaborating on community pride no one would argue a lot of changes will be necessary to improve the grounds to the point we would like to tour them with our out of town guests! However, with a little effort from a lol of people something could be done about conditions and ap­ pearances. For the Labor Day weekend the Wally Byrum Airstream Trailer Caravan made plans to come to Hastings. They ended up going to Ionia. We were never given a very clear reason as to why they changed their mind, but It's safe to assume lack of facilities and general appearances played a part. This sort of activity and many others not only profit the fair organization. but the business community as well. Barry County Holstein Breedens recently rejected an opportunity to host the 1974 State Holstein Show because of the condition of the fairgrounds. If the buildings and grounds were improved they could be used for a lot of purposes in addition to the county fair and the rent collected would go a long way toward continued main­ tenance. But to get things rolling the fair board needs help! Would you really want to see the fair die? BARKY FARM CALENDAR Jan. *-Flnonclal Planning lor Farmers.

Due to a somewhat greater than normal number of Hepatitis cases in the Barry County area, the Barry-Eaton District Health Department is recommending that potluck gatherings be held to a minimum during the holiday season. Hepatitis Is a disease that is most commonly transmitted by poor hygiene and sanitation, and contaminated food is an excellent means of spreading the disease. “We would also recommend that only packaged foods and candies be used in school parties. “If you are ill, stay at home, and don’t entertain,” the an­ nouncement concluded.

With a smile on his face and a wave of his hand He drove away that day, But before the day had ended. My Clare had passed away. Sincere and true In his heart and mind Beautiful memories he had left behind. For when evening shadows have fallen And I sit here all alone. To my heart there comes a longing If you, Clare, could Just come home. Looking back with precious memories Upon the path of life together we had trod Bless the years we had together And leave the rest to God.

A good example is modem quick-frozen meat, with lockedin freshness and quality that's easy to keep in convenient storage. The meat, frozen at temperatures ranging from 70 degrees to 360 degrees bqlow zero and sealed in special film before it goes into the meat case, is ready for the home freezer at the time of purchase. Less time and labor is involved for both the retailer and the homemaker than when unfrozen fresh meat is purchased to be taken home and frozen, and perishability is all but forgotten. case becomes covered with a mixture of dust and battery acid, and frequently fluffy white corrosion deposits. A solution of two tablespoonsful of baking soda in a cup of water will neutralize and clean away these deposits. Take care not to get the solution into the battery itself through vent holes in the caps or filler openings. Rinse away the solution with clear water. . . . Someone may have sent yOu a happy ad!

State Street Hatting*. Michigan In AUSTRIA, children put notes to “ dear child Jesus in Heaven" on the window sill for St. Nicholas to take so that the Christ Child could bring the requested gifts on Christmas Eve. In BELGIUM, children place shoes, baskets, or dishes under the tree for St. Nicholas to fill on Christmas Eve. They put water, hay, and carrots outside the door to attract his gray horse to their home. St Nicholas wears a bishop's robe and a miter, and he carries a pastoral staff. On Christmas morning the children find chairs tipped over in their rooms and further disarray to show evidence that St. Nicholas has been there. Good children find their shoes filled with gifts. Bad ones find switches stuffed in theirs. In FINLAND, Father Christmas brings children their gifts from England. In some sections he is known as Wainamoinen or Ukke. He is an old man with a long white mustache. He wears a white peaked cap with blue trim and a red coat. In HUNGARY, the children believe that a male Kriss Kringle brings their gifts. He is dressed in white and rides a white horse. The SOUTH AMERICAN children leave notes to "Little Jesus" during Posada. They leave them in front of the crib for the angels to take to heaven for answering. In SWEDEN, Jul-nisen in his red robe, pointed cap, and long white 'beard, riding his goat, brings gifts to good Swedish children. In the PHILIPPINE ISLANDS, shoes arc put in the window by the children on Christmas Eve. They expect the Thdc Kings to fill them. ' In MBnCU, Santa is not as popular us the figure of Quetzal­ coatl. the Aztec god of the sun. He is an old man with a long white beard and (lowing white robes. Before Christmas children write letters to the Christ Child listing what they want. And on the eve of Epiphany, January 6th they place their shoes al the fool of their beds for the Three Magi to fill. In SWITZERLAND, the tradition of St. Nicholas is observed. He arrives on December 6th and distributes fruit, candy, and toys. Sometimes there is a parade in his honor. A giant figure of St. Nicholas leads a group of children dressed in long while nightgowns and masks. The paraders blow long Swiss horns and bells ring. SPANISH children fill their shoes with straw for the camels of the Three Kings, on the eve of the Epiphany. It is thought that each year the Wise Men repeal their journey Io llrthlchcm and pass through Spain on the way. As they pass by. the camels cal the straw and the Mrorimre filled with gifts by Balthasar, who rides on a donkey.

A low-priced trickle charger may be a good investment in prolonging the battery life, ac­ cording to auto research experts. The charger can be hooked up on weekends or evenings, whenever the car Is not being used for several hours. To determine how long a battery should be charged, divide the rated ampere hours by the charger output. For example, a 55-ampere hour battery will take about 11 hours to become fully charged at a 5-ampere charging rate. The slower the battery is charged, the better. Slow charging permits a more thorough dissolution of sulphation that builds up on plates in normal use or when the water level is low. An inexpensive 4-ball hydrometer can help any driver easily tell the conoition of the battery. Draw enough electrolyte or fluid from a battery cell to bring the hydrometer to about three-quarters full If all four balls float, the bat­ tery is fully charged. If three hall* float it Is thrr quearters charged: two balls, one half charged: and one ball, oaequarter charged. If none of the balls float, the battery is "dead" or completely discharged. * Test and compare each' cell. If one or more cells shows a low reading, it is an indication a new battery may be required in a short time. Be Careful About Christmas Hazards Popular Christmas plants can have toxic effects if swallowed, and berries from mistletoe are highly poisonous. Children are treated each year as a result of swallowing toxic holiday decor­ ations. Hazardous man made decora­ tions include artificial snow sprays and fireplace colors. Fire is another hazard during the holidays - lake precautions in buying toys that are not highly flamable. Toys that are operated by alcohol, kerosene or gasoline arc especially dangerous. Keep electric trains or spirit-fueled toys from under the Christmas tree while in use Use non-combustible or flameproofed material to decorate the home or tree. It is safer to put your tree up shortly before Christmas and tak­ ing it down soon after. Before a tree is brought indoors, saw off the trunk at an angle at least an inch above the original cut, place it in water and keep the water level above the cut the entire time the tree is up. If an artificial tree is used, select the type marked as being made of slow-burning materials. Metal trees are not a fire hazard, but may be a shock hazard. In­ direct lighting is recommended.

Eleven of these had never had measles vaccine, and one case hpd the vaccine prior to one year of age.

Do not expose the child to this disease needlessly.” he said. The State Health Department said vaccine failure in children who have been immunized against measles almost always occurs when (1) the child has been vaccinated under one year of age or (2) the vaccine was given with gamma globulin or (3) inactivated vaccine was used.

Lice on Barry Heads; Here’s what to do by Barry-Eaten Health Depart­ ment Fortunately, there have been less than 20 confirmed cases of head lice in the Hastings School system; two in Nashville and 10 in .Maplewood; three in Delton and so far, none in the other school districts with buildings located in Barry County. Rarely does a school year go by without some reports of a few cases of head lice. Schools adjacent to Barry County are having critical problems with this. In order to prevent an epidemic here, we all need to work together Here are some things, you as parents, can do to help. 1. Instruct your children not to share combs, brushes, scarves, coats or other clothing with other children. 2. Observe your child for head scratching and listen to com­ plaints of an itching scalp. 3. Examine your child's hair if he has either of the above symptoms. Do not expect to see the lice, but rather look for nits <eggs> There are not much bigger than a grain of sand, and they are oval shaped and are “glued" to the hair and usually close to the scalp. They are fixed to the hair and almost impossible to pull off. They are white in color, but can have brownish centers. Lice can spread rapidly and eggs may hatch in 3 to 14 days. Frequently the scalp and neck are bitten. 4. If you find nits, don't panic! Treatment is easy and thorough IF you follow all the directions carefully. Ordinary shampoo does not kill lice. Kerosene treatment is too harsh and should not be used. �Lakewood Ski Club Plans Trip to Sugar Loaf at Traverse City Lakewood’s 1972-73 ski club membership swelled to 115 members as of Dec. 1st and more students are joining every week.

Each Winter the ski club skill three or four times at Cannonsburg. The 1st trip to Cannonsburg was scheduled for Wednesday night, Dec. 20th. The ski dub dance this Fall was a big success. It featured a live bana and about 300 students attended. The result was some additional money added to the treasury. Two trips up north to Sugar Loaf near Traverse City are planned. Reservations have been made for four rooms at Park Place Motor Inn in Traverse City for Saturday, Jan. 13th, and Saturday, Feb. 24th. Members will ski on Saturday and Sunday and enjoy the indoor swimming pool and sauna at Park Place. Seniors and Juniors who have been members for a couple yean will have priority on the sign-up list. The ski club will pay for the rooms and transportation. Tow fees, rental and food will be paid for by the student. Tow fees and rental are about $15.00 per day. If club members have equipment the cost is about Approximate cost per student would be between $20-$40. Renting equipment in Grand Rapids is one way of saving money up north.

Michigan HASTINGS BANNER, �EDITORIAL by R. M. C. Happy New Year All! If the coming year equals the one lust past, in terms of overall gains, 1973 should be a time to remember. Predictions are that the upswing, well underway during 1972, will continue. The only cloud on the horison, so to speak, being the possibility of crippling strikes that could give the economy a setback, resulting in a paralysis from which it would take months to recover. The year. 1972 was one of extremes The two memorable ac­ complishments were the commencement of relations with China after years of nearly complete isolation and greatly improved relations with Russia. Both were substantial diplomatic develop­ ments that could open the way for an era of peace and at least a measure of goodwill among the world’s three leading powers Undoubtedly the supreme disappointment of 1972 was the sudden breakdown in peace negotiations between the United States and North Viet Nam at the very moment when it appeared that a treaty was in prospect In this respect, the one who has the moot complete information on our side pertaining to the negotiations is President Richard M Nixon. He is not the sort of individual to order a resump­ tion of bombing just for the sake of murder and destruction One should take into account the fact that, even while the latest negotions were in process in Paris, the North Vietnamese, aided by the Viet Com. were carrying on aggressive action in the South, in the form of artillery, mortar and rocket attacks against communities that were, f tn no sense of the word, military objectives, resulting in the killing and wounding of civilians and the destruction of hospitals, homes and schools AD of this was made possible, in part at least, because of the bombing restrictions ordered by the United States as a gesture of goodwill to encourage meaningful negotiations. Whether it will take weeks or months more of negotiations to obtain a satisfactory truce agreement in Viet Nam, remains to be seen Peace can come quickly whenever Hanoi is ready to bargain in good faith Another historic accomplishment of 1972 was the phenomenally successful flight of ApoDo 17, bringing to an end a decade of engineering accomplishments and exploration of space It was fitting that this final flight should be the greatest of them all both in flawless performance and in scientific results achieved. Because of the seeming ease with which all of the Apollo flights have been made, it is difficult for the layment to appreciate their extreme complexity, with success depctiding not only on the three crewmen but more especially on the flawless teamwork of scientific specialists operating sophisticated electronic equipment much of which was not even in the development stage ten years ago. The cost has been high and there is undoubtedly good reason to cut back the pace of the program to allow expenditures in other important phases of our economu. However, our belief is that, in the years ahead, the United States is going to reap good dividends on the millions it has allocated to the space program. New techniques, new materials and new discoveries made during the development of the * Apollo craft will form the basis for new industries and new products that will enrich the U.S. economy , By comparing the fuzzy black and white telecasts from the moon by the first Apollo to land -considered a marvel at the time-with the crystal clear color telecasts in connection with Apollo 17 and one can get a dramatic demonstration of progress achieved over a brief period of time in this one specialized field. Communication satelites, an offshoot of the space program are circling the world and by aiding the inter-continental communication of news are already playing a practical role in all our lives Other satelites are sending back news of world wide weather patterns that will pave the way for more accurate forecasting vhen we learn how to use the information with precisian; information concerning forests and crops and detection of possible mineral resources and arable land not yet put to use But of course, the main mission of the Apollo flights was to bring back information regarding the moon They had a serious scientific purpose, even though most of us were inclined to regard them as a gigantic and costly sporting events. The results have been fantasticbeyond the expectations of even the most optimistic. Scientists predict that it will take a decade or more to properly evaluate the data and material already gathered The end result is very likely to be a more precise understanding of our solar system This may seem like “impractical” knowledge and useless as well However, history reveals the fact that so-called “impractical” information can over the years point the way to tremendously useful developments. It was Faraday, as we recall, who noticed the twitching of frog »(s when brought in contact with plates or unlike metals. A silly use time by a grown man, one might say. Yet it was this “impractical” information gained by a noted scientist, that formed a basis for the development of the entire electrical industry. When a civilization loses interest in knowledge merely for the sake of knowledge, that civilization is definitely on the downgrade We too, hope that 1973 will be an improvement over 1972-but we wiU not be too disappointed if it is merely as good. There have been worse years and there will be better ones. Anyway. Happy New Year to all of you. May 1973 be rewarding and prosperous.

Wednesday and Thursday, to pass judgment on how well the high school measured up to the standards set by the North Centra) Association "We are evaluated every seven years so we have plenty of ume to get ready," Principal Gerrit Klomp said "We have been preparing for the North Centra) visitation now for nearly a year.” Committees were formed as early as last winter to see that the many forms were prepared and correctly filled out Each teacher besides Filing out a booklet on himself, served on one or two other committees Each committee took a hard look at the particular area they were assigned and then wrote down their findings The evaluation team read the several hundred pages of fin­ dings and then did a little analysis of their own. The areas covered ranged from the school's philosophy and object vea to findings on business education at Lakewood. The North Central visitation team actually met with teachers and administrator around the dinner table Tuesday evening,' December 12. At that time teachers were seated at tables by departments with their visiting team member on hand to get acquainted with each depart­ ment. Following the dinner hour, the staff and North Central guests moved to the auditorium where they were shown a slide show of the school and community by Jeff Eckstrom and Mary Johnson. Afterwards a few brief words from the chairman of the visitation team and they left to return when school began on Wednesday Many of the classrooms Wednesday and Thursday were visited by the team. They asked that no long teats nor lengthy films be shown so that they can see the class performing in the normal daily give and take On Thursday afternoon the team recorded their finding which will in turn bp edited by the North Central office after which several copies of the completed findings will be for­ warded to Lakewood "They gave us an oral report on Thursday afternoon with the printed copies to be sent to us after the first of the year," Principal Klomp said Juniors Choose Get Witch Quick By Brad Benedict "GET WITCH QUICK" is the name of the Junior Play this year at Macle Valley Miss Laurie Kendrick directs this three-act comedy to be performed on January 25 and 26.

McGovern was supposed to be a strong candidate, but when It came ume to oush the voting button, a lol of people had secund thoughts and decided to stick with Dick. Nobody really likes what Nixon has done or what he is doing now, but at least we know how he operates and millions of Americans were not ready to take a chance with McGovern There wasn't much of a choice in the flection, but the right decision was made, only if Mr. Nixon will continue the with­ drawal of troops from Vietnam that he started In his first term of office A Christmas Poem Beneath the lighted Christmas Tree, With popcorn strings­ And spray can snow.

"The Bateman First Symphony" took her four months to write. "I started writing music when I was in sixth grade," says Geri. Every year she enters her music in the Battle Creek Youth Talent and Science Fair and has received one and two ratings. "I got interested in music when I started playing the organ, also the saxophone. From these two instruments I have learned different things to help me write," she explains. Right now writing music is a hobby but she is thinking about making it a career or at least music as a career. At the present she plays at church and let weddings. "If I write something really good I would try to have it published," says Geri. RIGHT ON GERI, GOOD LUCK!!

THE HASTINGS BANNER December 27. 1972 Dehm Braticb �farm By Arthur J. Streby County Extension Director Barry County •Activities High Lysine Corn Improved Looks like high lysine corn will now get better acceptance by­ American farmers. Scientists have made headway with problems of yield, high sugar content and ability to dry properly. Elmer Rossman, Michigan State University com breeder, says that scientists with the Rockfeller Foundation in Mexico have improved high lysine com so that kernels are larger. That means that the sugar content has been reduced. In the full, plump kernel, the sugar has been converted to starch. The improved high lysine com is yielding almost as good as conventional com varieties-a big improvement over the earlier high lysine hybrids which commonly yielded 10 to IS per­ cent less. Farmers have been having a problem with cribbing the high lysine com, because it ran 2 to 3 percent higher in moisture in the field. This made is more susceptible to ear mold in both the field and in the crib, because the sugar content was also higher. The improved high lysine varieties are dryer, harder and have less sugar. It’s almost certain that com breeders can eliminate most of the problems associated with high lysine corn-including yields. Once these problems are eliminated, the com should gain wide acceptance because otits improved protein quality. Traditional Carol Sing et Groos' Home Mike Kelsey. MSU4 p.m. Jan.

Ph.945-2152 Coming to Hickory Comers Wesleyan Church The Ray Overholt Family Sun., Jan. 7, 1973 - 6 P.M Barry Fair Needs $40 Each 1,000 Critics with BARRY FAIR NEEDS By William P. Kirkpatrick For several years a small group of businessmen, 4H leaders and other community leaders have worked and devoted hun­ dreds of hours and dollars in an attempt to improve the Barry county fairgrounds and buildings. Other people would sit on the sidelines and criticise the progress but never had the time to devote to the project nor were they willing to help provide the money necessary for materials. I must certainly agree with the Eublic critics that the tlrgrounds is in disrepair and most buildings are dilapidated. However, to say that folks are not doing anything to alleviate the situation is not true. Last year the 4H saddle, livestock and dairy club leaders and members started con­ struction on a new 112,000 restroom-shower facility, on the west end of the grounds. Although only one-third of the money has been raised, they are working at it and should have new restroom facilities by the 1973 fair date. The Fair Improvement Association, another small group of interested people, raised several thousand dollars in the past three years which was used for improving the buildings, primarily repair work but also rented a tent for use as a tem­ porary building. The examples above represent only a fraction of what is needed to modernize the fairgrounds. One conservative estimate was made that was needed to put the fairgrounds in reasonably good condition. This would build one large bam to replace the two worst eyesores on the grounds and make only minor repairs on other buildings. There is a lot to be done on some of the other buildings. Electrical wiring is very inadequate and fences should be replaced. A realistic approach is to raise 140,000 for the most pressing needs. This would only be a start at least a good beginning might encourage citizens to take a little more pride in their county fangrounds; and, once things are restored to a reasonable con­ dition they can probably be maintained through normal revenues from the fair and other uses. Many fairgrounds receive assistance through the county government. For example, the beautiful Community Bttfldlng on the Kalamazoo county fairgrounds was made possible by a one-half mill tax levied on the county for one year Another fairground such as the one at Ionia is maintained as a park. These are only a few of the reasons why some other county ................. . ■ with them at many of their fair facilities are 'in good■ repair. Tf the people of Barry county sessions and are well aware of should take this route we ob­ their problems Theirs is a viously would have better county thankless job and we all owe them a lol of thanks and fair facilities. We as a 4H group derive many gratitude for their community benefits and satisfactions by minded efforts If you are seriously concerned being able to use the facilities for the week of the fair and on some about the improvement of the other occasions. However, we are fairgrounds, why don't you gel in not the only ones who use the touch with a Fair Board member grounds.

Abolish Federal Freight Rules Economist Urges Federal regulation of freight transportation-particularly in the railroad and trucking industries-has been spectacularly unsuccessful and needs to be abolished. That’s the view of Dr. Thomas Gale Moore, professor of economics at Michigan State University, who just finished a study of Interstate Commerce Commission and federal tran- reelings He contends that regulation has not only hindered the in­ dustry it was designed to help, but it has "inflicted substantial costs and inefficiencies on the rest of the economy. His study, “Freight Tran­ sportation Regulation," has been published by the American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research, in Washington, DC.

Section 12 SPECIAL EXCEPTIONS. In order to make this Ordinance a flexible zoning control and still afford protection of property values and orderly and compatible development of property within the town ship, the township Board of Appeals, In addition to Ils other functions, Is authorized to approve the location of certain uses within lhe various zone classifications, which uses are designated In this Ordinance as special exception uses. Such special exception uses have been selected because of the unique charac terlstlc of the use which. In the particular zone Involved under certain physical cir­ cumstances and without proper controls and limitations, could cause It to be Incompatible with the other uses permitted In such zoning district and accordingly detrimental thereto. With this in mind, such special exception uses are not permitted to be engaged in within the particular zone in which they are listed unless and until the Zoning Board of Appeals, in its absolute discretion, is satisfied th jt the same, under the conditions, controls, limitations, circumstances and safeguards proposed therefor and imposed by said Board, would be compatible with the other uses expressly permitted within said district; would not In any manner be detrimental or Injurious thereto; would not In any manner be detrimental or Injurious to the use or development of adjacent properties, to the occupants thereof or to the general neighborhood; would promote the public health, safety, morals and general welfare of lhe community; would encourage the use of lands In accordance with their character and adaptability; and that the standards required by the Board for the allowance of such special exception use can and will. In its Judgment, be met at all times by the applicant. A. Special 'Exception Prodedure. . 1. All applications for special exception use permits shall be filed with the Township Clerk and shall include all pertinent plans, specifications and other data upon which the applicant Intends to rely tor a special ex­ ception use permit. 2. The Zoning Board of Appeals shall, upon receipt of a written application in proper form, schedule and hold a hearing upon the request and shall notify The applicant and all owners of all contiguous parcels of such hearing. 3. Following such hearing, -Mid Board shall either grant or deny a permit for such special exception use and shall state Its reasons tor Its decisions in the matter. All conditions, limitations and requirements upon which any such permit is granted shall be specified in detail by said Board in its decision and shall be filed with the zoning enforcement officer of the township. \ . 4. The plot plan and specifications, and all conditions, limitations anp requirements imposed by the Board of Appeals shall be; incorporated as a part of the spacial ex-l cept ion permit and violations of any of lhese at any time will cause revocation of said permit and said special exception use shall cease to be a lawful um. 5. Any property which is the subject of a spec la lex cept Ion permit, which has not been used for a period of six months (without Just cause being shown which is beyond the control of the owner and which Is acceptable to the Zoning Board of Appeals) for the purposes for which such special exception wet granted, shall thereafter be required to be used for only permissible uses Mt forth in the particular zoning classification and lhe permit for such special exception um shall thereupon terminate. Section 13. NONCONFORMING USES. ' The following regulations shall control lawful nonconforming uses In existence at the time Of passage of this Ordinance. ' A. Lawful nonconforming uses or struc­ tures in existence at the time of passage of this Ordinance may be continued but shall not be extended, added to or altered unless such extension, alterations or additions are in conformity with the provisions of this Ordinance.

The firm, owned by Cheney who at one time was in the building business and later opened his own business in Hastings in 1965, has been forced to move because of parking problems in its present location at 264 N. Church. The new quarters, offering more space and ample private parking, is just around the corner across from the Post Office, at 220 W. Mill. Purchased from Roy Nagler, the building is in the process of being remodeled and at this writing it appeared that Cheney and his crew will require some "Christmas overtime" in order to be done and open by Ed’s deadline of Tuesday, Dec. 26. Mr. Cheney received his brokerage license in February of 1950. Peanuts are Good, Healthy, Tasty Eating Merl Campbell Barry County Sheriff MAY EACH DAY BE A NEW ROAD fO HAPPINESS AND SUCCESS. Coleman Agency -Insurance203 S. Michigan-Rhone WI5-3412 a TUB HAtnM* Enhance recipes with good tasting, nutritious peanuts and peanut products, suggests Michigan Slate University Consumer Marketing Specialist Ada Shinabarger. Serve a salad of apples, celery and salted peanuts, or top coleslaw or applesauce witn crushed peanuts Or make a sauce for cauliflower, broccoli, carrots or asparagus by blending one part peanut butter with two parts milk. For the kids, top bread with peanut butter and bacon, honey, marshallow fluff, or mashed bananas Five tablespoons of peanut butter supply one-third of daily protein needs. Miss Shinabarger says The product is rich in food energy, fats needed for body­ balance. phosphorus and two Bvi taming. • One ounce of peanuts contains twice as much food energy (calories) as the same amount of cooked hamburger, several limes as much as one ounce of milk, the specialist points out. To cut calories, fill snack dishes with peanuts that are dryroasted.

Burton &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.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />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". <br /><br />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.<br /><br />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).<br /><br />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 A resource consisting primarily of words for reading.
