Here in the United Sates there is great diversity among our

Many middle aged and el­
derly persons suffer from
softening of the bones called
osteoporosis, due to s grad­
ual loss of calcium in the
bones. They become brittle,
deformed, and easily frac­
tured. Bones contain WSr
of the body’s calcium Stud­
ies over several yean show
that nearly all osteoporosis
patients had a low calcium
level in their diet, and that

by drinking mure milk, the
calcium level in the body
improved. To prevent bone
aliening, a duly intake of
at least one gram of calcium
(3 glasses of milk) plus ad­
equate protein, vitamins D
and C, is recommended.

don't even have access to the pop

Have You Tried Carpooling?
Carpooling is a good way to
save on gas and money, while
doing your bit to keep the air
clear, the road open, and
"energy" flowing This is what
you can do a bout it:
I Suggest to your employer's
personnel department that a car­
pool system be initiated The
company can write lo the Federal
Highway
administration,
Washington, D C 20590 for its
"Carpool and Buspool Matching
Guide" to see how to get a car­
pool started
2. At your office or plant, put up
"Share-a-Rlde?" index cardawith your name, address and
phone number on a bulletin
board
3 Sound out neighbors and

friends Use a community super­
market and library bulletin
board
4 Gather data on those who
respond Will they share in
driving or lake part as a
passenger only” Or are pick ups
and destinations too far out of the
way?
5 Arrange a get-acquainted
meeting of the group and work
out a time schedule Figure out
pay and pick-ups
6 Agree on rides
7 Whether you are a driver or
passenger, make sure your in­
surance covers you and the
others if you are driving
8 Before making the carpool
try It out for a week to iron out the
kinks in the schedule and rules.

public That's nice, but I didn't
sec any public waiting to gel in at
the time
I think this school is a good one.
and it needs some discipline But
the library is a beautiful place;
why can't students use it the way
they want as long as thrv don t
bother anyone' And why can't
students use their study halls the
way they want? They shouldn't
let it get out of hand, but keep it in
an orderly way

THE HASTINGS &gt;AN NEW

EDITORIAL
by R.M.C.

Dean Davenport 'Read the Future’
The current wheat shortage remind* us once again of a prediction
made forty years ago by Dean Euaene Davenport
The great, world wide depression was in full bloom Crops wenbeing plowed under and government money being paid for land
withheld from production All this m an attempt to cut the supply to
meet demand and so maintain crop prices at a profitable level
The decreased demand, at Dean Davenport pointed out. was a
false mdei caused by the fact that millions of people both here and
abroad didn't have the money to support diets of even minimum
healthful standards “If all the hungry people ir. the world." the Dean
said, "were able to maintain decent diets, there would be shortages of
food supplies and not surpluses The problem then would be to put new
land into production and find wan to increase yields per acre.'
Dean Davenport "read the future" much better than almost any
other individual of his era. At the time, and with wheat a drug on the
market. his remarks seemed unrealistic and fanciful The Dean,
however. was a practical theorist who saw the world farm problem in
a much clearer light than most of his contemporaries

7n The Dark’ Il ith Daylight Saving
We are as confused as anyone else concerning what is actually
being saved by adopting "daylight saving time" al this time of the
year We see youngsters walking Io school in complete darkness in­
stead of daylight This means that schools will have to turn on the
lights an hour earlier than usual-and since there was full daylight at
time of dismissal tinder the old time system, there will be no saving to
compensate under the new time standard. Much the same thing is true
of factories and businesses
So. where u the saving We have heard explanations but none of
them make good sense to us We can appreciate the leasuo f«x
Cdaylight saving during Summer and early rail But at this time of the
Tt seems to us that the so called "saving" is actually an extra
of darkness during which an increased amount of power and elec­
tricity must be used We do not My that there is nc reason for
daylight saving" at this lime oi the year, but do confess that none of
the explanations given so far make good sense

Attack Energy Criaia W ith Technology
In our opinion, practical, long range answers to America's very
real energy cnsis could be obtained by attacking the problem with co
ordinateoscientific teams as was done to achieve such terrific results
in the Space Program If it was important to spend billions to send
men to the moor, and explore spate with sophisticated missiles that
can almost think and tala, it would seem even more important to at­
tack our own global energy crista in the Mme spirit. Under ordinary
conditions, il would have taken scientists several centimes to have
acquired the knowledge and techniques that NASA obtained in little
more than a decade Problems pertaining '.o energy, we believe, are
critical enough to receive the Mme intense, coordinated treatment

‘Senator Sam * A Main lienefa'ctor
Anything Mid or written about President Nixon these days
arouses high emotions However, our guess is that, impeachment
proceedings are not likely and if held, will not produce evidence that
would hold up in any court of law Nor do we believe that the President
will resign He has always shown a willingness to stand up and fight
and. if he believes himself innocent, he should not resign. Im­
peachment proceedings are largely misunderstood The initial
proceeding initiated by the House of Representatives, is in 00 seme a
trial but rather a grand jury that reviews the evidence and passes it on
.0 the Senate far further action, u aay. Legally, there is no particular
stigma attached to Impewchmrot proceedings A similar situation
exists in the Army when officers criticized for action under fire often
ask for a Court Marshall to renew the evidence
It ts also ow opinion that very few convictions will eventually
result from the prolixigued Watergate hearings Because of the man
ner in which the Ervin Committee turned what should have been an
essentially grand jury proceeding into a TV spectacular, it ts doubtful
if any of those convicted could, under the circumstances, receive a fair
and impartial trial anywhere in the United States. Lower court con­
victions would stand a very good chance of reversal on the grounds
that impartial trials, under the circumstances, could not be assured
Former Special Prosecutor Cox, called Dus to Ervin's attention but
televised proceedings were held anyway
One of the main benefactors from Watergate will be "Senator
Sam." himself, who is receiving royalties from books related to the
proceedings and will soon be on the lecture circuit at lush fees

In regard to the letter I wrote in

A man from Nashville who
suggested using a garden plat,
(for spending their time and alao
lor food), a lady in Hastings who
owns a store and didn't have
much time but offered en­
couragement and a lady from
California who used to live tn
Hastings but •« interested at

At first I was discouraged
specially when I found I needed

I decided it must be a sign to go
ahead Then I got an idea to have
an auction sale to earn some
money to begin work on the land
I have had offers from people
who said they would search the
attics or garages I need articles
that someone would buy at an
auction.
Also I thought maybe I could let
a club such as Scouts use it for
camping for helping me clear the
land if I could get some In­

earn money is through Stanley

TO THE ELECTRIC customers of consumers power company

NOTICE OF HEARING ON AMENDMENTS
TO RULE 13 and RULE 14(0} OF CONSUMERS POWER COMPANY’S
STANDARD RULES AND REGULATIONS
On August 2. 1973, Consumers Power Company
(the "Company”) filed an application with the Michigan
Public Service Commission in Case No. U-4399 which
requests authority to amend Rules 13 and 14(D) of its
presently effective S'andard Rules and Regulations
(MPSC No 7 • Electric. Consumers Power Company)
I he Company states in its application that Rule 13
relates to electric overhead distribution line extension
policies and Rule 14(D) relates Io electric underground
distribution line extension policies. The Company also
states in its application that the cost of construction of
both overhead and underground electric' distribution line
extensions has greatly increased. However, the
Company’s presently effective Rule 13 and Rule 14(0
do not reflect these increased costs Accordingly, the
Company proposes to amend such Rules to reflect the
current costs of constructing such facilities

As Kt forth in proposed Rule 13, the Company
proposes to amend the conditions under which

Warnings of shortages tn the
Fall months were well founded,
he adds
"Although

Vitosh adds, "but there are ways
farmers can cope with the
situation and get the best possible

Nitrogen, especially. Is ex-

ul. however, that
natural gas feedstocks for am

ment task force is working with
the Federal Power Commission
to obtain the highest priority
possible "
Ammonia producers use less
than 2 percent of the total U.S.
natural gas consumption and
could conceivably receive a low

ministration appears to be com­
mitted to expanding agricultural
output as a means of stabilizing

use controls (zoning) affects
every citizen and particularly
property owners, potential
property owners, builders.

convert hi* place to a service
shop, or manufacture some
product, or collect junk of some
kind’’ Thr country over, one can
see many such jumbled-up
residential neighlxirhoods
Your farm is located in a good
rural community Can the com­
munity be invaded by any and
every kind of property use? Could
any such use depreciate property
values’ Could it force up taxes
and compel farm people to sell
out and leave as has occurred in
many good farm communities?
You live, or have a summer
cottage in a lake recreational
area Could you have a slipshod
trailer camp, a biuarc tourist-

ar another unwelcome property

ner. will publish occasional in­
formational articles concerning
the subject of Land I '«e Planning
and Zoning with the objective oi
keeping the people informed It ta
hoped that these articles will
stimulate guestions of interest to
the general public that we can an­
swer
In this initial article we will try
to answer the frequently asked
questions-"Why do we need
zoning?"
The following Is evfmrtw. fmm
Extension Eo'der F 272 published
by the Michigan State University
Cooperative Extension Service
WHY ZONE?
You may live in a community
which hit used foresight and
planned its future Or you may
live in a community which is now
exercising only hindsight and
regretting it did not act in time to
protect its quality and resources
Without good community plan­
ning backed up be zoning,
anything can happen Everyone
is virtually free to use his proper
ty as he pleases, regardless of the
effect upon the neighborhood or
community
The use can seriously injure lhe
value of your property It can rob
you of the enjoyment you have in
your home or business It can
pose serious problems for the
community The use may be a
health, fire, or traffic hazard, or
merely
an
annoyance
to
everyone
Changes in Ownership
Most
people show
con­
sideration for their neighbors,
but not all. Moreover, as property
changes hands, do you know what
the new owners will do? If heirs,
will they continue the former
use’’ Or will they sell to a
stranger because they now live
elsewnere. or do not care to con­
tinue the former use? How will
there art non resident property
owners in the community, what
are their plans’ What of the
vacant or undeveloped property
in your neighbortiooa'
The Unknown Eulurr
You are proud of your home
You have invested your life
savings in a pleasant residential
neighborhood. Is it limited
chiefly to homes’ Or may anyone

You won’t have a ver y.defimte
answer to any such questions un­
til your township or county plans
its future and enacts a zoning or­
dinance to guide future develop­
ments Without zoning, you can t
be sure what tomorrow may
bring, what future uses of proper­
ty to expect in and about
neighborhood and in your
munity You are a "sitting’
for anything
\bout Restriction*
Not lafreuueiilly uppuamun io
zoning is raised on the grounds
that to all intents and purposes it
is prohibitive and restrictive
This is not a fair appraisal
It is true that certain
limitations are placed on uses of
property to achieve the purposes
of zoning For example, uses of
property that harm, or arc not in
lhe best interests of a neigh­
borhood or community as a
whole, arc curbed or excluded
from areas where they injure
They are directed to the place
where they arc harmless or les.*
hurtful .Standard* of property
use are set to prevent fire or
firespread, improper waste,
disposal, traffic hazards, or
provide common decencies
Freedom to use property as one
pleases is always subject to
responsibilities in use
Zoning Benefits
1. A good zoning ordinance
help* preserve and maintain
what is good and desirable in
each community Communities
erode like unprotected lands
unless guarded by guidelines.
2. It helps safeguard and
protect against undesirable and
hurtful conditions One bad use
can hurt an entire neighborhood,
and no neighborhood is immune
lo injury unless properly zoned
3. It replaces change, un­
certainty and the unknown with
surety, purpose and direction
4 n i.tienuragH 'he use nf the
lands of vach community ac­
cording to their character and
adaptability II helps conserve
special assets for living, work
and play
5. It promotes orderly growth
Unless given intelligent direc­
tion, unguided growth can lead to
chaos, waste and distress in the
use of property
8 It makes possible the
development of systems, good

road systems,
good fire­
protection systems, good waste
disposal sy»'em»-in contrast to
stopcip measures II makes
possible a programmed approach
in meeting the needs and services
of a community
7. It promotes compatibility
and harmony in the us&lt; of proper­
ly. It reduces conflicts and
checks hodgepodge and top
»yturvcydome
8 It provides stability
Everyone prefers his home,
busir.es*. farm, industrial plant,
summer cottage in a stable com­
munity
9 It provides a means lo Fit
"objectionable" property uses in­
to their proper place-the
noisemaker, dust maker, odor­
maker. eyesores, and other
problematic property uses
10 It help* hold down un­
necessary taxes and special
assessments fur doctoring up
scattered, out of place. and other

DEVELOPMENT: CA.MlH FLAGE FORGREED
By .Arnold Toynbee
"Development." meaning the erection of high buildings on urban

the cause of this conspicuous contemporary activity It is not develop­

wealth of the human race-not to apeak of human happiness II la «

greed, the "developer" Is a parasite, fattening on a sick body social
Recently. I have had two disturbing encounters with "develop
men!" in two of the world's famous cities In London, where I have
lived since birth, and in Athens, which I have known since lilt Within
my lifetime, both Athens and Ixmdon have been transformed to a
degree al which parts have become almost unrecognizable
In the heart of one of London's largest residential areas there ia a
street tn which housewives from all around used to be able to do their
shopping The shopkeeper* nude their living by serving the local
rrsiden:* The shopkeepers employes made their living by doing their
job-. Employee* shopkeepers and residents all benefited by this con
venient la v out of that particular district of London
Suddenly, the sites of the shops were bought up. over the
shoe&gt; keepers' heads, by a "developer' . the shops were closed and then
pulled down; the shopkeeper* and their employers were deprived of
their livelihood, the housewives were deprived of their shoppingcenter-for many of them, the only one within easy reach
The only potential gainer was the "developer." who was
reckoning on being able to smother lhe area under enough cubic feet of
high buildings to ensure that, in an inflationary age. the capital value
of his Investment would appreciate, even if his new blocks were to
remain un let

July. 1970 My business in Athens takes me to a high point in the city 's
corrugated landscape The steep contours, with their precipitous dif­
ferences of altitude. are part of Athen s charm
When my wife and I had finished our business in lhe high up quar­
ter. it had been our habit to climb still higher, in order to take our lun­
ch In an open air restaurant nearby This was an attractive spot
Here one could sit under the shade of a fragrant pine-tree, cn
joying lhe coolness of the northerly summer breeze, with the Acropolis
in full view far below, and beyond the glistening Acropolis, the
sparkling sea

Well, we thought, we shall be able to enjoy this combination of
amenities just this once more It will be a happy finale to a visit to
Athens that we shall not be able to repeat We had started to climb
hopefully inwards our intended destination when we were overtaken
by a kind friend
"! know," she said, "where you are bound for. You are heading
towards that restaurant that you used to enjoy so much, but I am sorry
to have to tell you that it no longer exists Its kitchen, as you will
remember was in an old building just across the street, but this
building, together with the adjacent sites, has been bought up by a
developer 'He has pulled everything down in order to put up a newhigh building So the restaurant has been put out of business."
.
Thus in Athens, as in London, the "developer" had been dealing

I am very mixed up as to why
scholastic wrestling is su
unrecognized Rarely do you see
or hear any coverage of high
school or college wrestling on TV
sports news or sport sections of
new* papers Yet. there is com
plete coverages of football,
basketball, hockey, etc . locally
and nationally
Students call our Hastings
Wrestlers "fags." "pigs." and
other such names Some of the
wrestlers parents don't even
come to watch their own .on*
wrestle at the meets It seems as
though the parents would want to
encourage
their
sons
or
daughters interest in any sport he
or she may enjoy
The students, as far as I can
see. have no right calling the
wrestlers such names when there
are referee * overseeing the mat
ch.
watching for
illegal,
dangerous holds w moves There
is nothin*
f«IULy
going tat
there As far as calling them
"pigs." wrestlers don't get dirty
or muddy like that of football
players and with 23 players on the
field running around and into
each ott-cr. hrw are referee's
going to keep track of each player
Io make sure nothing foul is going

I am not saying the football
players or other sport* par
ticipants are different, rather
just pointing out chance* of
anything foul going on in
wrestling is less than that of other
sports The referee has only two
participants at a time as com­
pared to two whole teams.
Chances are the students who
have made such inaccurate ac­

r&gt; i»'|,y
cusations of the wrestlers have
spent their time and effort
wrecking our school toilet rooms
with their smoking, etc or ruined
our thouv.-nds of dollars worth of
turf shrubs and plants around
lhe school by trampling them
while outside smoking
You must give credit to those
who are following training rules,
tbiwe who have courage enough
to go out for a scholastic sport
and accept winning or defeat in a
sportsmanlike way
All sports are of equal im­
portance and I am one who thinks
it is about time all sports should
be treated equally

To Ike Editor .
After reading many of Minnie
Williams letters to The Banner. I
finally fl-el that I must. al the risk
of incurring criticism, state a few
opinions of my own
First let me say I admire
greatly a lady of Mrs Williams
age of M being able to write so
eloquently ro subjects she is in­
terested in But in her last letter
she stated that "All tho
achievements of this administrstion are now forgotter "
Let us look at these achievemen­
ts.
Mr Nixon has achieved to
bring us here in 1974 to a point
where inflation is at an all time
high, lhe economy of lhe country
is at lhe worst point in yean, lhe
dollar is shrinking, unem­
ployment is rising, crime is cn
the upswing, we have an energy
crisis that will be with us as long
as we live, and a recession this
year is almost a certainty
True, Mr Nixon did end lhe
war In Vietnam, but in my
opinion it could have been over
much sooner except Mr. Nixon
didn't want it to end for economic
reasons Strange It ended just
before the last election, isn't it’
And how many M I A s do we still
have over there, and they are
now fonotlen
Mrs Williams says the news
media is crucifying Mr Nixon,
therefore she never reads the
papers because there are so
many things she simply refuses
to believe
She chooses the books she
reads about politics, picking lhe
ones that agree with her opinion,
which In turn agree with the
Republican party. How can an In­
telligent person be so biased in
their way of thinking?
Watergate aside, and I agree
I'm sick and tired of hearing of II.
Mr Nixons record is nothing to
be proud of And I think if he wan
Is us all to sacrifice, help the
energy crisis, lick inflation, and
in short put up with all the har
dships his administration has
brought on us, the least he could
do Is Io set an example Let him
conserve on gas. let him pay hl*
fair share of taxes, let him stay al
borne and tend to business, and
above all let him show us that he
has the welfare of the country at
heart instead of trying to make it
a dictatorship with himself as
dictator
A* to Mrs Williams, let me on
ce again reiterate that I think
it's wonderful for a woman of her
age to be so interested in world
affairs, even though she is sadly
misled Let me also add I'm
proud of the (acUltaf *hr hgxJbt
l nirage of her convictions. And
I've known Mrs. Williams very
personally all mv Hfe-she's my

Then,
perhaps, we businessmen would

My father has summarized the
current situation by saying.
"Everybody, with any sense
agrees that Nixon must go—they
just can't decide who is going to

the American people can tell him

service lines in residential subdivisions, and a
charge ol $2 00 per trench foot lor commercial
and industrial extensions In response to
requests by residential home builders and
developers, members of the Legislature and
utility companies, the Commission believes that
it would be in the public interest to review
these charges. If the Commission finds that the
current cons of construe*&gt;c;&lt; ot overhead and
underground extensions are to any extent
different from rtiose upon which the above
charges
based, it proposes to fix different
charge* to reflect the change in the difference
in wosts.

Weigh
carefully
before you
shoplift...
THE PENALTY IS STIFF
CHIEF OF POLICE Richard Junior
confirms that shoplifting In tho
Hastings area, unless chocked Im­
mediately, Is on the verge of
becoming a major problem. "Ar­
rests are on the Increase and
complaints are soaring," The Chief
said, "and unless the trend Is
turned 1974 could be a record year
for larcenies."
Last year's statewide statistics
aren't In yet, but figures show that
in 1972 In Michigan there were
14,531 cases of larceny (thefts
under S50.00 which Includes shop­
lifting).

While It Is to be emphasized
that this wave of shoplifting Is
caused by the small minority, the
burden and loss still rests with the

Going To JaiMsn’t Funnv!_

local business man and he has
little alternative than to keep a
strong vigil - for he cannot be ex­
pected to absorb the loss entirely
at a time when costs are already
soaring. Some of the loss, too,
must be passed on to the Innocent
customer.
The responsibility Is shifted to
the clerks, too, whose real |ob Is to
serve customers In a cordial and
efficient manner. Obviously they
cannot function properly If they
must constantly be on the alert for
shoplifters.
Chief Sunlor warns that shop­
lifting will not be tolerated and
that local officials will cooperate
closely with the Chamber of Com­
merce and area merchants In
bringing the guilty to justice.

_

BARRY COUNTY SHERIFF MERL CAMPBELL stiles that "there certainly

isn't anything funny or glamorous about going to jail" and if anyone thinks
otherwise he would be only to happy to give them a tour of the county lockup.

Sheriff Campbell cited the embarrassment involved, not only to the guilty

.

.

.

sometimes the innocent shopper, too, inadvertently may become suspect

just for being in the store. Officials and the merchants go to great lengths
to prevent an injustice.

"YOUR FUTURE," Sheriff Campbell warns, "may be in the balance when

you steal from a store. Just one shoplifting conviction can give you a criminal
record

doors

.

.

...

.

which is all you need to wreck you life for good. Colleges bar their

so do prospective employers. Nobody wants a thief."

"Remember this," Campbell continued, "when you're temped to shoplift

THE HASTINGS BANNER

Started In 1962

Troop 73’s Ecology
Project Way Ahead
O£ Energy Crisis
In 1962 the urgent need of tents
for camping inspired an ecology
project for Scouts at First United
Methodist Church which came
more than a decade before lhe so
called “energy crista "
Elwin Johnson, Troop 73 Com­
mittee Chairman, recalls that
Melvin Haight was approached
by a paper company in Otsego
requesting Scouts collect papers
for them As the paper companywanted to have a full truckload
when coming to Hastings a
storage place was required Mr
Haight contacted Mrs Eva
Hecox of '&gt;29 South Jefferson
about using her garage and she
agrred to allow the Scouts to
store papers there
For twelve years she has been
st.ring papers cUleUcd by th*
Scouts, and many people have
become accustomed to leaving
their papers in the garage Mrs

Hecox says they are welcome lo
continue
Another phase has been lhe
house tchouse collection, and the
Scouts will continue to pick up
papers from those who cannot get
to the garage ur trailer, Mr John­
son stated
In lhe interest of recycling
more papers and magazines and
reducing the bulk in the sanitary
landfill? the Troop represen­
tatives approached (he City
Council on placing a trailer at the
Sanitary landfill The council
passed the proposal and a search
for a suitable trailer was begun
Fred Eckardt. local Jeep and
Trailer dealer,
graciously
donated a semi-trailer for collec
Hon and storage at the landfill As
tins trailer will not be available
for a couple of months, lhe troop
will be using temporary trailers
It is suggested that the public will

papers and mapzines as they
put them in the trailer and

From the purchase of three ten­

money raised has fully equipped
the unit from XS scouts ana the
adult leaders In addition, the

summer camping fees for all the
boss and assisted a newly formed
unit with scouting equipment
Under lhe recycling program,
papers collected have been used
for carton making, wrapping par
ts, making filters and also for in­
sulation
The measured success insofar
as the troop leaders are con­
cerned. Mr Johnson staled, is the
satisfaction of seeing boys go to
camp who could not otherwise
have gone without financial aid
and in watching the scouts work
as a team with pride in getting
theiobdone
The camping trips include con­
servation projects such as cutting
fire lanes, clearing a scenic raid
on Grand Island and constructing
and placing rustic scenic
markers Community service

�Thinkltank
We’re sure that by now you’ve had it up to there
with talk about tne energy crisis. We have. too. So what do
you say we both do something about it?
Let's go on a gas diet. The American Automobile
Association (AAA) has asked its sixteen-million members across
the country to voluntarily cut gas usage by twenty-five
percent to avoid gas rationing. As part of this national effort,
we're asking you and all Michigan drivers to join in.
We’re not suggesting that we starve ourselves to the point
of stalling. On the contrary. Let’s keep traveling by trimming away
excess gasoline usage. (Cut down, so to speak, on galories.)
Think Tank. That’s what Think Tank is all about:
Sharing ideas so that together we can save enough gas to avoid
rationing. We’d like you to think more about
your gas tank and come up with as many gas
saving ideas as you can. Send them to us
and we’ll share them with everyone else.

Six tips you might
be tankful for.
To get us started here are some
gas saving ideas:
I. Use a light touch. Drive
your car like you had
an egg between your foot
and the gas pedal. Try not
to break the egg.

2. Look ahead for ways to gently slow your car
without using the brake pedal. 3. Drive 55 mpit or less.
4. Plan ahead to make shopping trips in a straight line
without doubling back or crossing your own path.
5. Make sure your car is tuned-up and tires are properly inflated.
6. Join a car pool.
Now send us your ideas. Most of our ideas you've
already heard. Send us yours. (Don't be shy, now. The idea that just
popped into your head has probably never been thought of
before.) We’ll send you a Think Tank bumper sticker and membership
card to prove you’re doing your part lo avoid gas rationing.
Where to send them. Your ideas can concern
anything from camping vehicles to power
mowers—just so long as they save gas.
Send your ideas to the Automobile Club
of Michigan, 150 Bagley Ave.,
Detroit 48226.

We want to do more
for you.

DEVELOPMENT: CAMOUFLAGE FOR GREED
What is this world wide social malady? Its name is greed Of cour­
se. every living creature is greedy, greed is another name for life;
and. among all the living inhabitants of this planet's "biosphere."
mankind ha* by (ar the greatest capacity for indulging its greed when
it puts its unique human intellectual ability at its sub-human greed's
service
Mankind, however, also has a unique spiritual intuition We are
aware that the indulgence of our common greed is not the true purpose
of human life. Our spiritual leaden—the sages and sail •« whom we
venerate even when we fail to live up to their precepts-h. « all. with
one voice, condemned greed, and they have warned us against it
Their warnings have been given by example, as well as by word
The Buddha voluntarily renounced the inheritance of a lucrative
family business The example set by Saint Francis is the one that we
westeners ought to take to heart with particular compunction, for
Saint Francis is the only westerner in that glorious company The Bud­
dha was an Indian. Mo-Tse was a Chinese, and Jesus, on whom Saint
Francis modelled hl* light, and whose stigmata he received, was a
Palestinian
These revered spiritual leaders did not succeed in redeeming the
majority of their fellow human beings from the servitude to greed
from which the saints had liberated themselves Rut. till recent times,
the saints' example did make the rest of us ashamed when we failed to
live up to the saints' standards
We were still greedy for material wealth, but we did not admire
our greed; we admired the saints' conquest of their own greed We

privilege of having the last word,
and knowing me she wouldn't ex­
pect It.
I welcome criticism because it

thinking, even though they are
unable to carry out their con­
victions in any constructive way.
I believe that the reason we
disagree tu such an extent is due
to the generation gap She

rang a spiritual treasure—and this not just for themselves, but for sit

effort.
In the industrial revolution, we westerner* made a momentous
break with mankind's past, and the Russian* and the Japanese have
nut followed at our Iteels The superficial new departure was the
mechanization of the production of material goods; the fundamental
new departure was a reversal of traditional ideal* and objective*
Instead of continuing to be ashamed of our greed, we now glorified
it We made the satisfaction of it our paramount objective, anti we took
the degree of our *ucce*s in satisfying our greed a* being the ultimate
test of success in life
When, in this competition for material wealth, we drove our
weaker neighbor* to the wall, we were not abashed; far we had per­
suaded ourselves that, in ruthlessly pursuing its own material in­
terests. a person or a people was doing the best possible service to
mankind a* n whole
It has taken less than two centuries, reckoning from the industrial
revolution's starting date, to demonstrate that the modern objective is
unattainable We knew all the time, in our hearts. that the pursuit of it
was immoral
Modern politicians of all parties in all countries have been
soliciting vote* by promising to their constituent* a progressive an­
nual rise in their material standard of living This promise cannot be
fulfilled, for an endless growth of material affluence is impossible,
even for an inequitably privileged minority of mankind, in a
"biosphere" that is inexorably finite
Our ’ biosphere" is a thin film of water, soil, and air enveloping
the surface of our planet Its volume and its irreplaceable resources
are limited, and its venerable resources are vulnerable Mankind is an
Integral part of the life that the "bmspteerc'' contains and sustains.
The "biosphere" could easily be made uninhabitable by a perverse
exercise of the material power w hich man has now acquired, worn ng
together with his rejection of the traditional restraints on hit greed
If he lets his greed lure him into wrecking the "biosphere" he will
destroy hts own kind as well as all other specie* of h ving creatures
In order Io keep the "biosphere" habitable for another two billion
years, we and our descendants will have to stop following the example
of Pietro Bernardone, the materially successful twelfth century
western wholesale clothier; we shall have to begin to follow the exam­
ple of Pietro * son Francesco Saint Fra nets-the greatest human
being that ha* appeared in the W est so far
Modem man, armed with his mechanized technology, now has it
in his power to wreck the "bio*phere" if he *o chooses. But, besides
being a greedy technologist, mon is a soul He does not live in the
"biosphere" exclusively; he also live* in the "neoopbere"—the world
of the »pint. and the "neosphere." unlike the "biosphere." is boun­
dless ; for the life of the spirit is not a prisoner of the three-dimensional

Open letter to the Hastings Var­
sity Basketball team
I thought with tournament time
coming up very soon that I might
offer some encouragement to lift
your moral up. I know your
season so far has had many
discouragements but these can
achievements by making a
strong showing in past season
ptay.
I have seen teams with as few

play go on to become state cham­
pions. this doesn't happen to
frequently but it has and can be
done I have seen you fellows play
three games this season and it up­
sets mt on the outcome of them
because I know you fellows had
the material to win ihow games
but they resulted in losses
I love the sport of basketball
and only wish 1 could have
achieved my goal and become a
coach as I would relish the chanpotential you fellows have, but a
disability kept me from the
coaching rank* so I do the next
best thing watch basketball on
television and go to aa many
games as possible
We have a very small school
near Jackson named Leslie and
every year they develop a real
strung team from just about nil
in material They have a coach
who works with these boys very
hard and encourages them with a
pat on the back new and then inhard as one unit and tcamplay
not as individuals with ragged
play and this system molds some
great teams
Sure I'm partial to your team
because I have a nephew playing
with you guy* but hes no better a
ayer than any of you. It lakes a
I close knit team Io make
things happen and you have the
personnel to do it. Get some con­
fidence started amongst vou guys
and and you can turn things all

for you so nut it all together and
surprise a few people
I'll sign off now with part of a
quote from Edgar Guest with a
couple added words of my own

jackets and go to it; just start to

Weigh
carefully
before you
shoplift...
THE PENALTY IS STIFF
CHIEF OF POLICE Richard Sunlor
confirms that shoplifting in the
Hastings araa, unless checked im­
mediately. Is on the verge of
becoming a major problem. "Ar­
rests are on the increase and
complaints are soaring." The Chief
said, "and unless the trend is
turned 1974 could be a record year
for larcenies."
Last year's statewide statistics
aren’t In yet, but figures show that
in 1972 in Michigan there were
14,531 cases of larceny (thefts
under $50.00 which includes shop­
lifting).
While it is to be emphasized
that this wave of shoplifting Is
caused by the small minority, the
burden and loss still rests with the

local business man and he has
little alternative than to keep a
strong vigil - for he cannot be ex­
pected to absorb the loss entirely
at a time when costs are already
soaring. Some of the loss, too,
must be passed on ta the innocent
customer.

The responsibility Is shifted to
the clerks, too, whose real job Is to
serve customers In a cordial and
efficient manner. Obviously they
cannot function properly If they
must constantly be on the alert for
shoplifters.
Chief Sunlor warns that shop­
lifting will not be tolerated and
that local officials will cooperate
closely with the Chamber of Com­
merce and area merchants In.

The most satisfactory means of
avoiding
corn
rootworm
problems is field rotation
There are two varieties of root­
worms in Michigan: western and
northern. Root worm feeding (in
the larval stage) of both weakens
the root system and causes the
plant to lodge and pull out of the
ground at harvest Adult root­
worms feed on the silks, tassels,
ard soft kernels at the tips of the
ears of corn The western variety
also feeds on com leaves
The adult northern com root­
worm is entirely yeilow or green
The western rootworm is yellow
with three black stripes down its
wings It strongly resembles the
striped cucumber beetle except
that it has black, instead of light­
colored. hind legs
Recent tests in St. Clair and
Shiawassee counties show that
aldrin, the moat commonly used
insecticide for rootwornu. can
cause future problems because of
its residues Insecticides that
eliminate the hazard of residue
indude BUX. diazinon, and hep
tachlor
Rootworms can be avoided by
rotating com with other crops
Although some insecticides have
proved valuable, rotation is the
most
sound
long-range
agronomic practice Application
of insecticides as "insurance”
against rootworm damage is an
unnecessary expense mid an un­
justified use of chemicals If you
can grow com in a field which
w as not com in 1973

the Hastings City Council Mon
day night. Feb. 2S. received the
welcomed news from Police
Chief Richard Sunior that crime
in Hastings dropped a great deal
last year when compared with
1972 and 1971.

Hastings in 1973 totaled 501..

1071. Misdemeanors

Chief Sunior said Hastings now
has two cruisers traveling the
streets, with additional officers,
and that crime prevention is
much better than catching of­
fenders after a crime has been
committed.
Not only were arrests much
lower last year than the previous
year, but accidents reported
were down 73 to 249 There were
62 involving personal injuries but
there were no fatal accidents In
the 12-month period. Hit and run
accidents dropped more than

half, from 52 to 25 Drunken
driving was down from 98 to 48

During the past year Hasting*
police investigated 4,296 com
plaints, not including traffic
violations, nor house checks The
number of complaints represen­
ted a decrease of | ,349 from 1972
At Monday's meeting the coun­
cilmen accepted the Hastings
Motor Sales bid of &gt;3,279 for a
new Plymouth cruiser without

take the old cruiser to an

Exempting Costa Makes Sense
A bill pawed recently by the Michigan State Senate proposes to
exempt home improvement expenditures of 94.000 or leas from
lavaiinn This maxes good sense Reasonable costs necessary for
adequate maintenance of property should not be added to valuations
for tax purposes
People should not be financially penalized (or taking proper care
of their homesteads. Rather, tax schedules should be adjusted to en­
courage expenditures for this purpose A sharp distinction should be
made between maintenance of properly and capital improvements
which do add to basic valuations The 44.000 exemption for main­
tenance is not al all out of line in view ol the high costs that now prevail
but should be sufficient Io lake care of all justifiable coats in this
*Two years ago. a similar bill passed the Senate but was killed in

the House where it was opposed by the Michigan Municipal League
Thia time we hope that the present bill will be supported by both bran­
ches of the Legislature.

and I really don't think anyone

icxpuuaible fur U»r emotional
uproar which took place after
half-time when Hastings was in
the lead, that they would get us
after the game The insults from
their players were anything but
common flagrant ‘icidences that
most endure in a hard fought bat­
tle.
The officials were reluctant to

Applaud State Senator DeMaso
We applaud Slate Senator Hany DeMaso for two recent steps
taken in toe interest of Michigan tax payers.
First, he attacked the extent to which free mail privileges are
being exploited Last year free legislative mail charges amounted to
4243.159 .-in increase or 44 percent over similar expenditures in 1972
DeMaso's own free postage bill was 94W, third lowest among all the
senators There la. as Mr DeMaso pointed out, a legitimate use for
newsletters to inform the people back home on matters in 1 ansi ng and
Io keep the legislators, themselves, in closer touch with their districts
How ever, in view of the figures cited by Mr. DeMaso. there is no doubt
but that lhe free mail privilege is being grossly abused
Second, he Introduced a resolution to suspend all action on the
proposed Ml Plus million office building until more facts are at hand
and passed along to the public
Many legislators think that a new office building is not needed
Others, citing a need, believe that, for the present, there arc other
issues of vastly more importance
Although lliere would be more ioes than gain in doing away with
legislative mail privileges and although a new office building may
eventually be needed. Mr DeMaso's words, we hope, will have a ten
dency to cur b abuse of lhe former and hrsty action on the latter A new
multi million dollar office building is something in which the public
should have the right to at least express an opinion
So, a salute to DeMaso for calling attention to excessive ex­
penditures real and proposed We need more members in lhe
Michigan Legislature to recognize waste of funds when they see it and

Washington and Lincoln
- Rugged Honesty
It is a rare coincidence, indeed that the birthdays of the two
greatest personages in American history are celebrated in the same
mon th-George Washington's Feb 22 and Abraham Lincoln s on Feb
12. Although Lincoln was born in a log cabin in Hardin county. Ken­
tucky. and Washington in a well-settled area In Westmorland county,
Virginia, there were many points of similarity between lhe two men.
both in character and physical characteristics
Both men were noted for rugged honesty Although Washington
served the colonies and later the united States before political parties
came into being, he showed the same ability to get along with govern­
ment officials and tl.e same skill in dealing with conflicting elements as
did Lincoln during the Civil War era
Washington, a born leader of men. lacked formal military training
but through years of practical experience became a strategist and tac­
tician of international renown. Even Lord Cornwallis, the British
general whom Washington cornered at Yorktown, had high words of
professional praise for the Squire of Mount Vernon, uncoln on
assuming the presidency had absolutely no military experience save
for a few months of "comic opera" service with the militia during the
so-called Black Hawk war. However, by dint of study and observation,
he developed a sense for overall strategy that exceeded that of any of
his generals, including Gran:. Sherman and Shendan-and it was these
three who eventually earned through the strategic concept that the
former Springfield lawyer had attempted to sell, without success, to a
series of blundering, inept generals who wasted the talent, ability and
bravery of a series of well-trained Union armies
Both men were tall. lean, physically powerful and noted for
athletic ability Despite seemiruRwkwardnasJjnroln was actually a
well coordinated individual who excelled in the games and contests
then current Although Washington was a horseman whose ability was
recognized as exceptional even in Colonial Virginia, it is often an
overlooked fact that Uncoln too. wax recognized as an able horseman
among the Illinois lawyers who often were compelled to use this form
of locomotion in travelling the circuits in a countryside more often
than not unmarked by roads or trails
Neither man had the advantage of an extensive formal education.
Lincoln. according to his own account, had lhe equh alenl of about one
year of study in the irregular frontier schools Not much Is known of
Washington's education but it seems probable that his schooling com­
prised four or five years of study in an academy located near his
home.
Despite lhe initial handicap of frontier schooling. Lincoln through
continual study and intelligent application mastered the English
language Io the extent that some of his slate papers are regarded as
the finest examples of English prose produced either here or abroad.

AI (hough Washington eventually mastered the English armies on the
field of battle, he never exhibited the same ability with the English
language.
Both men had a flare for mathematics and both took up surveying
as a means of earning a living before embarking on the careers that
eventually brought them face to face with history Washington was (he
youngest licensed surveyor in colonial America and Lincoln qualified
himself for this task after only a few weeks of intensive study
It was the character of Washington and the universal esteem in
which be was held that provided the necessary bonding force to make
a nation out of the newly united assemblage of states during the first
important eight years of government under the new Constitution-and
it wax the character and steadfastness of Uncoln that prevented this
Union from bunting asunder amid the sectional ill feelings and
emotionalism of the flvil War
The United States is Indeed fortunate to have had two such leaders
as Gevrge Washington and Abraham Lincoln who came to center
stage at critical moments in the Ijtotory ol our Nation

Hastings High's Coach Ernie
Strung "smiled all weekend" af
ter his Saxons whipped the St
Johns Redwings on their own
court “I believe our boys are
playing much better ball, playing
as a team much better than in the
first and middle parts of the
season," Coach Strong declared
Admittedly, St Johns had a poor
shooting night, but then Rory
West was in there intimidating
tbe Redwings, and our defense
was pretty good. Coach Strong
switched his zone arrangement
on the Redwings, which caused
them to do some things dif­
ferently
Coach Strong agrees that Doug
Woodhams, St Johns forward, is
F&gt;bably the outstanding player
the West Central Conference,
and even he missed some key
free throws in the final quarter

The Detroit IJons—Hastings
All-Star game may have been a
financial fiasco Saturday night,
but it provided the few who at­
tended an opportunity to see lhe
pro football players in action. The
Lions, led by tight end Charlie
Sanders, scored IM points and for
the most part were just having
fun Sanders hit 38 and big Jun

FARM BUREAU’S------Agricultural
News
Letter
by Pat Brown

Almost every one's fears about the
Fertilizer Supply Situation have come
true! Nitrogen is in very short supply.
Potash is available, but lack of rail cars
has caused deliveries to be as much as 12
weeks behind.
Because of a Nation Wide increase in
the amount of acres planted into coni.
*1 whoa1. a4» fertiliser-wHTWfl’fr
be ammoniated or a blend
production
has not been able to keep up with
demand. Some farmers who have not or­
dered early may have a tough time fin­
ding supplies to meet their need, all of
which could affect expected yields, if
enough fertilizer is not used to get op­
timum production.
What this will do to the price of grain
। ight now is anybody's guess! This years
carry over looks to be smaller than ex­
pected after last year’s good harvest
because of continued strong domestic
and world demand.
All of which leads to a close look this
Spring at the increased importance
placed on chemicals to help increase
yields and reduce the chances of lost
profits through weedy fields. With the in­
crease in Barry County of fall grasses in
the last couple of years, Atra; ine alone
may no longer fulfill your needs.
Therefore it will be good to look at
Atrazine-Princep or Atrazine-Lasso
combination in order to rid your fields of
fall grasses.
At Hastings Farm Bureau we handle
Atrazine-Princep and Lasso plus other
chemicals for all your planting needs.
So if you have a problem and need
some answers stop by at 1830 Bedford
Koad or call 945-9543 and we’ll try to
make this Spring a success operation for
you.

THE HASTINGS BANNER

Township Zoning Pros, Cons Are Discussed Here
by Marc Squier
Chairman. Barry Hanning A
Zoning Commission
We concluded the last article
with a brief comment about court
tv and township zoning and in­
dicated that, al this time, one
township has township zoning in
effect while two other township*
have taken the initial legal action
t.. declare their intent to establish
a zoning board and institute town
ship zoning
Mill other townships are con­
sidering selling up township
zoning but hasr not set taken the
legal steps to do so
At this time county zoning is
still effective and being enforced
by lhe county in all townships ex­
cept Yankee Springs
The
average citizen reading thin
would probably wonder why
there is this sudden interest in
township zoning when county
zoning has apparently been ac
ccptaole to Inc townships since
1966 In this article we will
highlight the pros and cons of
both county and township zoning

Why are some townships in­
terested In changing lo town­
ship zoning?
The reasons within each town­
ship vary, however, basically
there arc three factors involved
First, is the sincere belief of some
township officials that county
zoning administration and en­
forcement has not been and is not
likely In be, up to the standard
that they would like to see for
their township Second, and
directly related to the previous
reason. Is the belief that local
zoning control is closer to the
people and will be belter able to
provide lite level of zoning ac­
tivity that u desired by the people
of the township Third, there is
some concern that the recently
adopted county land use plan,
and the new zoning ordinance
being prepared, may result in the
zoning of the townships by the
County without consideration of
lhe townships views, which is not
the case as will be explained
later
Why are some townships

remaining under county rowing?
Ih-obably at some time every
township supervisor and town­
ship board has considered town­
ship zoning The topic has tiecn
discussed at meetings of town
ship officials and between town
ship officials and county officials
The single moat significant factor
that causes most townships to
rule out township zoning is the
coct The estimate of initial cast,
for
lhe
preparation
and
publication of a land use plan and
a zoning ordinance, would vary
from about S3.000 up lo about
Ili.OtB. depending on whether or
nut a professional planning agen­
cy is used Estimates of annual
operating cost range from about
$2,000 up to about $11,000 depen
ding on how much the township
pays the zoning administrator
and what costs may be incurred
for legal assistnnce during lhe
year If a major court case should
occur the legal costs could cause
the $11,000 figure to be exceeded
considerably
Another factor that could affect

the cost is the probability of a
State
Construction
Code
becoming effective in late 1974 or
early 1975 If a township also elec­
ts to enforce lhe construction
code there may be additional ad­
ministrative and salary ex­
penses. more than likely any
township th.it has its own zoning
control would want to also have
control over the enforcement ol
the construction codes In those
townships that do not accept the
responsibility for the ad
ministration and enforcement of
a construction code, the counlv
will tie responsible
Standardization h drsirrahir
In those townships that
ultimately go ahead with town
ship zoning it would be very
dcsircahle if lhe townships would
utilize the county land use plan
and zoning ordinance as a guide
•n the preparation of the township
documents The resulting stan­
dardization would permit a
smoother coordination procedure
between the townships and the
county on planning and zoning

matters and would minimize the
probability of a crazy quill
zoning pattern in the county
caused by widely varying zoning
criteria
In addition, stan­
dardized zoning patterns would
facilitate the coordination of
development projects that eras
(ownship Ixiundarics The factor
of standardized zoning criteria
and standard administration and
enforcement of znnmg and con­
struction codei is a basic point in
favor of county -w ide zoning
Township and citizen concern
about the new zoning criteria
mav be premature First, the recently adopted
county land use plan is an ad
vrsnry policy document only and
is not law Second, the proposed
new zoning ordinance and
proposed new zoning maps will
lie coordinated with the town
ships prior to Finalizing them into
a new county zoning ordinance
Third, there will tie at least one
public hearing on the proposed
new zoning ordinance before it is
submitted to the county board of
commissioners Fourth, the coun
ty board of commissioners must
approve the ordinance before it
can become effective Fifth,
there are provisions in the law for
referendum action which could
result in the ordinance being put
on the ballot
It is apparent that there is a
long way to go before a new
zoning ordinance can liecoine ef­
fective in the county Also there is
opportunity for citizen input in
the process of preparing and
finalizing
the
new
or­
dinance citizens that are in­
terested should let their township
supervisor know so that they can
be consulted in the coordination
process Coordination between
the townships and lhe county will,
hopefully, result in a new county­
zoning ordinance that we be
generally acceptable to the town­
ships and the majority of the
people If at a later date it
becomes apparent to a township
that the county proposal is not ac­
ceptable to the township, the
township still has the option of
establishing local zoning control
In the interim, those townships
that have not already done so
should
probably
consider
establishing a Township Plan­
ning Commission A township
land use plan will be very useful
in future lowraiiip and cuunly
phnning actions and. a land use
plan is a np-«ysary first step
nr ir-aaiw"
legal tow nship zoning ordinance
Summary
As you can sec. the decision on
township zoning is not a simple
straightforward matter The
dilemma facing the (ownship of­
ficials and the citizens of the
townships is how to weigh the
possible advantages of local
zoning control against the disad­
vantages of cost. Also, the factor
of standardization acheived
through county-wide zoning
should be considered
The next article will cover the
county planning objectives and
Eoals as contained in the county
ind use plan

Code
becoming effective in late 1974 or
early 1975 If a township also elec­
ts to enforce the construction

township th.it has its own zoning
control would want to also have
control over the enforcement ol
the construction codes In those
townships that do not accept the
responsibility for the ad

a construction code, the counlv

matters and would minimize the
probability of a crazy quill
zoning pattern in the county
caused by widely varying zoning
criteria
In addition, stan­
dardized zoning patterns would
facilitate the coordination of
development projects that eras
(ownship Ixiundancs The factor
of standardized zoning criteria
and standard administration and
enforcement of zoning and con­
struction codei is a basic point in
favor of county -w ide zoning
Township and citizen concern
about the new zoning criteria
mav be premature First, the recently adopted
county land use plan is an ad
vrsnry policy document only and
is not law Second, the proposer!
new zoning ordinance and
proposed new zoning maps will
lie coordinated with the town
ships prior to Finalizing them into
a new county zoning ordinance
Third, there will tie at least one
public hearing on the proposed
new zoning ordinance before it is
submitted to the county board of
commissioners Fourth, the coun
ty board of commissioners must
approve the ordinance before it
can become effective Fifth,
there are provisions in the law for
referendum action which could
result in the ordinance being put
on the ballot
It is apparent that there is a
long way to go before a new
zoning ordinance can liecoine ef­
fective in the county Also there is
opportunity for citizen input in
the process of preparing and
finalizing
the
new
or­
dinance citizens that are in­
terested should let their township
supervisor know so that they can
be consulted in the coordination
process Coordination between
the townships and the county will,
hopefully, result In a new county­
zoning ordinance that we be
generally acceptable to the town
ships and the majority of the
people If at a later date it
becomes apparent to a township
that the county proposal is not ac­
ceptable to the township, the
township still has the option of
establishing local zoning control
In the interim, those townships
that have not already done so
should
probably
consider
establishing a Township Plan­
ning Commission A township
land use plan will be very useful
in future luwiaiiip and county
phnning actions and. a land use
plan is a np-«ysary first step

As you can sec. the decision on
township zoning is not a simple
straightforward matter The
dilemma facing the (ownship of­
ficials and the citizens of the
townships ts how to weigh the
possible advantages of local
zoning control against the disad­
vantages of cost. Also, the factor
of standardization acheived
through county-wide zoning
should be considered

Advance Guard of ‘Majestic March
Sunday with its 70 degree temperature was a real forerunner of
.Soring, whlch-lets not deceive ourselves-is still a bit further away than
"Just around the corner." This wonderful and unexpected "change of
. pace" is one thing we like about Michigan weather. This "May in Mar­
ch" interlude is an advance guard, so to speak, of the Majestic March
of the seasons leading toward a re-awakening of dormant vegetation
as the trees, fields and hillsides' take over with fresh, living green
from the white and drab grey of wintertime.
The unseasonably warm Sunday weather also brought another
harbinger of things to come-two houseflies which, all to soon wtil be
followed by countless millions more! It is a fact that each of the
seasons in our State has its own special virtues and flaws.
Take winter, fur example-higher fuei bilh, walks to be shoveled,
roads often slippery, ice storms that can bring down wires and lhe
branches of trees-but then, on the other hand, no Hies, mosquitoes or
bugs and the crisp, cold air is infinitely more invigorating than the
humid warmth one often encounters in the southern climes.
All of which indicates that both weatherwise and otherw ise, per­
fection exists nowhere. To get something you invariably have lo give
up something-an exchange of virtue, so to speak. Anyway spring is
coming although in Michigan one can never predict just how soon.

Nationalization-Asking for Trouble
Certain influential members of Congress, so we read, propose that
lhe American oil industry should be "nationalized" under Federal
management. That is certainly asking for trouble, since Washington
has over Ute yean exhibited everything else but competence and efflciency in the handling of matters far less Involved than the oil industry. Prime contribution ofthe Federal Government in the interest
of public welfare, should be to set the rules for operation and
rigorously enforce same.
Private enterprise has been the backbone of American propscrity
and no socialized nation has ever matched our ability to produce efficiently and well-and that applies both to industry and agriculture. If
the petroleum industry has adopted practices not in the public interest, the government has all the authority it needs to outline and enforce corrective measures. We already have enough bureaus, boards,
commissions, etc., in Washington to do an effective job if they
operated with even a fraction of the efficiency of private industry. In
this instance, the enforcement of laws already on the books rather
than the socialization of a major industry Is the course most likely to
protect the public and at the same time Insure proper use and development of a vital natural resource

‘Unadulterated Emotionalism'
Regarding Watcrgatc-the time has long since passed for sensible
discussion and has entered into a fixed state of unadulterated
emotionalism. Even though the Grand Jury is turning over lhe results
of its deliberations, we doubt that fair and impartial trials can ever be
held because of the manner in which the various individual;
individuals involved
have already been exploited, tried and retried in the media. How can
an impartial iury ever be selected under such circumstances? Most of
those on trial have already been convicted and found guilty by the
press and on TV. According to American law an individual charged
with wrongdoing is considered innocent until proven guilty in a court
of law where he can answer his accusers and te Judged by a jury of his
peers whose members must undertake this responsible assignment
with an open mind, uninfluenced by whatever may have been said and
with no prior conviction as to guilt or innocence where now can such
Jurors be found anywhere in the United Slates? The manner in which
Watergate has been handled is as offensive to some people as lhe wdidness of Watergate. Itself.

member of our family and a very
dear friend. Maybe Stub was only
another dog to you. but he was
much more than that to us.
I was only 14 when wc got Stub,
he was only a puppy, that was

can see why we thought of him as
a part of the familv.
After my brother and I left
home to serve our country, Slub
was the only "son" my parents
had left at home. That's how they
thought of him. as a son
Stub was an exceptionally
smart dog and a lot of fun. In fact,
he was a lot smarter and more
fun than some people I know.
The day Stub died he had gotten

mother was taking him back
home to tie him up when he spot­

into your yard.
You said Stub barked and jumGd at you as if he was going to

the house and got your gun.
Don't you think that if Stub was
going to bite you, he would've bit­

door??

To the Editor:
Hastings Michigan is a nice
Stce to live. But wliat Hastings
ty needs are places for people
to go to. Like a Free Clinic once a
month—and a doctor who will
give you a check up once a year
and to give those who need more
help, on welfare.
When a man works a w eck and
has a child home to pay for other
bills the welfare takes and cuts
him down on food stamps and no
oil in his home. They think the 870
he makes should keep him and
wife and baby alive. And when
the baby is sick lhe medical says
they have to go see a doctor in
Nashville. Why so far from
Hastings? Why can't they have a
free clinic in Pennock Hospital to
cut down on gas? Also, help these
people out. If the welfare can pay
oilier people's bills up and they
have plenty of help, help the
others.
One who needs help

Uncle Sam's in the "red"again? Everything else is

lights and turn down the heat and
to drive less’ Then WHY are the
Kroger stores allowed td stay
open 24 hours a day? I feel this is
utterly ridiculous, especially in
Hastings. I don’t feel its really
necessary even tn larger towns to
be open 24 hours a day.
_Mvform of protest will be that I
store at" any time of lhe day as
long as they stay open around the
clock. Sure my grocery money
may not hurt them, especially
since they didn’t get much of it to
start with, but if others in lhe
community will do the same,
maybe someone will wake up and
close those stores at 8 or 9 p.m.
which is late enough for them to
slay open

It is the intent to accommodate

The general philosophy on land

realized in that natural features

Cite Land Use Objectives, Goals of Planning Commission
By Marc Squire
In this article we explain the
ind use goals and objectives for­

Commission with the help of
citizen task lorcvt These are ex­
tracted from the land Ute Plan
adopted by resolution of the Plan­
ning Commission on Jan a The
Land Use Plan is a policy guidan

men! pressures are occurring
and will accelerate In the future.
It is the intent to accommodate
land development, but at the
same time maintain a high
regard for the natural wealth.
The general philosophy on land
development is that it should be
orderly and of sufficient quality
to avoid being a public burden or
to avoid degradation of the

zoning ordinance We want to
cover the goals and objectives at
this time as beginning with the
next article we will be discussing
some of the more interesting and
controversial Issues that the
Planning CommiMion must con­
sider in preparation of the new

the entire county Because of this
overall attractiveness and the ac­
cessibility of the county to
surrounding major metropolitan
areas significant land develop-

facilities can be maximized and
expanded economically, and new
services can be justified with suf
flcient
concentrations
of
population. At the same time
other aspects of the overall
development philosophy can be
realized in that natural features
such as prime agricultural lands,
open spaces, and riven and lakes
can be preserved from the
degrading effects of random and
haphazard land development
COUNTY GOALS AND OB-

avoided.
z. Sufficient and adequate
public recreational development
to service permanent residents of
the county should be provided In

3. Provide assurance for
quality residential living that will
blend with natural features and
offer a pleasing and safe living

recreation plan and that plan
should
be
re-evaluated
periodically to reflect current
thinking and changing con­
ditions.
j. Private and semi public
recreational facilities should be
associated with new residential
developments and at the neigh­
borhood level within existing
residential developments to allow

4. Encourage the majority of
residential development to take
place within urban centers in the
county where public services can
be adequately provided and at

Return to High School Provides
Wonderful Emotional Experience
By Charlene R. Ilurgtorf
Adult Education has helped me
to understand some of the
political aspects of elections, how
they were run and bow the plat­
form is put together. and what it
means when the word “plank" is
used. I feel I have really made
the right decision when I enrolled
in the Adult Education Program
I am very thankful for this once
in a lifetime opportunity
I have enriched myself oat only
by the education, but by fulfilling
my ambition to received my
diploma and have made more
friends In doing so. I also have
more confidence in myself, and
being able to make this great ac­
complishment is a great enrich­
ment to me.
Aa a result of 'his education I
can now think positive and Io
have self confidence I know now
that 1 can do what ever I put my
mind to.

After starting classes. I found I
enjoyed my return trip In "High
School" even though it is called
Adult Education. The feeling of
finally graduating after all these
years is a very tremendous
emotional rxpcn&lt;-nce which can­
not be explained other than to say
that it is really an achievement in
Itself.
I’ve been able to use this
education to put my thoughts
down on paper in the form of
poetry. For this I thank Mrs.
Melendy
I am sorry I felt unsure about
enrolling m Adult Education
sooner than I did but am very
happy 1 have done sn and have
received my diploma I am a 1973|

'Streaking* — New Campus Craziness
Campus craziness is with us already. hopefully indicating the ad
vent of an early Spring "Streaking," although having no direct con­
nection with the intelligence that theoretically prevails at our in­
stitutions of higher learning, probably makes as much sense as the
swallowing of live goldfish, cramming into pay telephone booths,
raiding dorms, etc
••freaking" has already fallen to a stereotyped pattern requiring
only a cap. a face mask, a pair of tennis shoes and lack of seif respect
So far the pastime has been received with tolerenace. spectator reac­
tions to It varying from amusement to mild disgust As a matter of
fact, any society that can take X-rated movies, peep-shows, massage
parlors, etc. in stride should not be overly concerned with the com­
paratively innocent exhibitionism of "streaking " Probably the most
wholesome reaction to it is total indifference
Eventually the perpetrators win realize what ridiculous spec­
tacles they are making of themselves and "streaking" will then give
way to other forms of springtime lunacy hopefully no more damaging
than "streaking."
Of course there are laws on the books re indecent exposure-but
like most other American laws arc not enforced and when attempted
enforcement is made can usually be circumvented on technical groun­
ds put forward by a clever defensive Thus, the "streakers." can feel
reasonably confident that the law will not look their way with any
frightening degree of sternness
Actually "streaking" is not a present-day phenomenon The act of
exposing ones self to possible public view has always been accepted as
a challenge by those in immature stages of development.
Many long years ago when the present Junior High building was
practically new. we recall a "daring young man" in ‘ * class below us
who consistently won bets by circling the building during twilight hours
completely tn the buff Of course the building was not as well lighted
then as now and there were bushes behind which the lad could dodge in
case of emergency Nevertheless it took a degree of nerve as well as
boyish exhutierance to go through with the challenge, since, at that
time, the punishment for detection would have been swift and severeextremely severe, in fact.
Later-much later-this "early bird streaker." became a successful
realtor in a nearby city and played an active and useful role in com­
munity affairs-a personable individual who came to have respect for
himself and commanded the respect of others
Naturally "streaking" has provoked considerable comment
among the "deep thinkers" who specialize in analyzing human
behavior
Take the Michigan Slate psychologist, for example, who opines
that "people uho strvax are cither very secure about their nwn bodies
or feel quite insecure about them." Then there is lhe Chicago U
professor who states in all seriouseness that the "streaking"
movement will lead to "more nudity or much less " Both of them are
evidently trying to tell us wmething-but What1
In this era of high crime lets not vent too much anger and attention
on the "streakers" most of whom will eventually mature and look
back with mingled feelings of amusement end regret on their kiddish
pranks Instead Iris ivncentrale and demand more effective action
against the real culprits the murderers, the robbers, the dope pushers,
the rapists, the kidnappers. etc After all. in i couple of years, or even
less, the "streakers" will have been forgotten as some other form of
spring lime campus madness takes center stage

Becoming Nation of ‘News Neurotics’

To lhe Editor:
To whom it may concern. In
response tn Mrs Remley's letter
last week in The Bi nner about
Krogers being open 24 hours It
seems rather foolish to me for
anyone to condemn someone else
for something they obviously
know very little about
I think I can understand the
reason for 24 hr service con­
sidering I have lived next door for
sometime For one thing there
has always been 2 or 3 guys
working all night cleaning,
stocking and unloading the trucks
that pull in round the clock
Seeing as though someone must
be there all the time, why not
open the door and make a little
extra money to pay the rising
cost of utilities already in use
If you will check you’ll find that
most of the people that stop late
at night are those either on their
way to or from work anyway So
you see it's lust an added con­
venience for those who don't have
such a well adjusted routine as
yours.
Suppose we all look you up on
your suggestion of not shopping
there anymore, or any place that
someone with no real knowledge
of the situation told us not to go?-*
Thia
happened many times
over Take the toilet paper shor­
tage Someone or two people
made a joke or a suggestion
about a shortage and within a
short lime there wav none left
because people starting boarding
it
Suggestions based on nothing
hurt us all What would happen to
our free enterprise system There
would be little competition left.
Think about it

trucks
now!

Some reasons why thousands of
Michigan motorists agree with us that
topless trucks should be banned!
"I have two cars and a motor home. The two cars have broken windows thanks to gravel
trucks. Save my motor home! Please!"
Rlchard Slron(| . Ponllac

Automobile Club of Michigan is prepared for battle—to fight in Lansing
for legislation banning topless trucks from Michigan roads.
It cost at least $11 million in Michigan last year to replace 100,000

windshields broken by debris from uncovered trucks.

But even more appalling is the threat of flying cargo to life and limb.
You can replace windshields, but as a Birmingham woman stated in a letter

to Richard Dann, Executive Vice-President of Automobile Club of
Michigan, “... You cannot replace a child, wife or husband..

We’re sick of gravel storms, flying junk and unsightly litter caused
"As someone who has suffered two broken windshields, a broken headlight, a ruined paint
job and a ripped off muffler due to uncovered trucks: I am definitely In favor of covering
these trucks and anything else that might save someone's car or life..,"
•

by uncovered trucks. And we think you are, too.

Please join us in the battle to effect legislation to ban topless trucks.
Make your feelings known by returning the coupon below... or by writing
your legislator... or both... TODAY!

**l ride a motorcycle, and even with eye protection such as sunglasses, I still get dust and
sand particles In my ayes and am almost without vision until I can pass these trucks. I don't
want to think of what would happen If a rock hit me."

IMPORTANT
Spring is just around the comer and with worm, sun­
ny days ahead it's only natural to be thinking about the
great outdoors, going places and seeing things again in
the family car.
Wo dealers realize that a new car is just a part of
Spring Fever ond for many con be os popular as the
National Pastime. Because of the energy crisis ond the
so-called gasoline shortage, car buying and driving
habits In some ways have been altered.
To those folks who are thinking of buying a new car
now. or In the near future, your Barry County auto
dealers would like to say hold on for a minute! Think of
the long-run future before you buy. ond carefully con­
sider the following Important factors;
•
1. Don't let rumors scare you-most people in Barry
County really haven't found getting gas to be a problem
2. Of course, we recommend conservative measures
for your cor even in periods of relative abundance. Most
any car driven properly ond maintained accordingly will
provide satisfactory gas mileage results.
? Consider your individual needs-fomily, hauling
requirements, space needs, ere. on inadequate size car
can cost you money ond convenience.
4. Make an honest effort to obtain all the facts

before you buy. The difference in gas mileage, for in­
stance. between a family-size cor ond a compact may be
negligible compared to spoce and other inconveniences.
5. Think of all the safety factors like tire size, space,
handling, visibility, size, comfort, brakes and per­
formance.
The energy crisis has produced some drastic, ond
questionable changes in some Instances of our motoring
habits, but one positive improvement has developed.
That's the reduction of speed which is heartily endorsed
and welcomed by all dealers who have always been
deeply concerned wilh safety. If observed religiously,
the new limits will have a calming effect on the highway
traffic and generally contribute a safer, more enjoyable
motoring atmosphere for all drivers.
So if YOU are anticipating a new cor. remember to
GET ALL THE FACTS. And when you do buy...BUY
LOCALLY. It just mokes good sense. Think of it....local
buy. local service, ond local deols from dealers who
know you and want to help you beat this energy crunch.
And by driving your new cor closer to home you can
spend more lime in it and get much more enjoyment
from It.
And happy motoring'“

Credit Bureau Records Open
"Your record at the credit
bureau is open for your in­
spection any time you want to
know what is in your file." James
W Morr. manager of the Credit
Bureau uf Barry County, said in
response to President Nison's
weekend message on the Hight of
Privacy
Ptease rail for an appointment
before coming in.
According to John I. Spafford.
president ci Associated Credit
Bureaus. Inc . the problem with
the publicity given to the issue of
privacy and computers is
the' bmad brush" approach and
over-generalisation by the media
and government officials to this
complex issue
"For example," Spafford said,
"the statement that consumers
cannot learn what is their credit
file is false The law requires
credit bureaus to disclose
everything in your file and as a
matter of fact, over 1,700.000
disclosures were made by ACB
members in 1973
"The slalemenl," Npsfford
said, "that credit bureaus collect
and disseminate personal in-

formation about consumers'
morals, characteristics and per­
sonal habits Is false. In­
vestigative consumer reporting
agencies gather that type of in­
formation for insurance com­
panies. but your local credit
bureau does not. And II is high
lime the media and government
officials get that point straight."
Spafford said the 2.100 credit
bureaus represented by ACB
have been "abused by and con­
fused with" investigative repor­
ting ever since the privacy issue
began making headlines Credit
bureaus, according to Spafford.
make full disclosure of sources of
information but investigative
agencies are not required to
disclose sources
"Your local credit bureau is
now and has t»ecn opcrafing un­
der a strict Federal law since
April. 1971 that protects con­
sumer privacy and affords you
the right to know what is in your
file and to correct or place a
statement in your file If govern­
ment officials are concerned with
personal privacy." Spafford said

EDITORIAL
by R.M.C.

Replanting Program Necessary
It is always a sad sight, in our opinion, to see a shade tree cut down
even though it may be past its prime. However the removal of old.
semi-decayed trees in combination with an adequate replanting
program is necessary to keep Hastings green Old trees have to oe
removed to make way for the new. The city is now and for several
years has been engaged in such a program. Some errors in judgement
nave been made and a few perfectly sound trees felled without
adequate reason to justify the actita. But. it is our impression, that
greater care is now being taken and past mistakes should not cloud the
overall value of (he replanting program
Well before the turn of the Century Hastings was a treeless city
Standing timber had been cut to obtainbuilding material and fuel The
streets were stark and unattractive Citizens got together on a volun­
tary basis and launched a replanting program. That is why the city
has for many vears been blessed with tree-lined streets that provide
an attractive landscape pattern-this In contrast to the stark ugliness of
former years Hastings has taken pnde in its trees and we hope this
sentiment continues For many decades, however, the city did not ap­
preciate the fact that this initial planting was not a permanent fixture
and that a program of removal and replanting would be needed to
replace the older trees as they approached (he arborean "end of the
line."
Most of the new plantings are hard maples which seem to do
especially well in this area and with the program now being followed
Hastings will continue to be a city of greenery for many years to come.

Leave Financing to the People
An offshoot of Watergate is the move, now underway, to "im­
prove" the electoral processes here in the United States by having the
Federal Government finance all Presidential elections
Improvement In our electoral system is needed but the creation of
a brfmd new Federal Election Bureaucracy is not the answer Rather
it would be a step toward the creation of more electoral turmoil,
unrest, dissatisfaction and unfairness than the present set-up faulty
though it may be. Under the present system the Federal Government
can make the rules and enforce them.
' But once a Federal Bureau takes over, the Bureau, itself, becomes
the administrator and judge of its own actions and thus assumes the
authority of an outright dictatorship. If American citizens submit to a
bureaucracy of this type, they will be surrendering one of their most
cherished hentages-the right to freely work for and support the party
and candidates of their own choice.
The main weakness in our present electoral system is the lack of
adequate citizen participation This will not be rectified by the for(nation of a Federal Election Bureau empowered to use lax money to
finance campaigns. Such a move, in our opinion, would tend to reduce
rather than create interest in election campaigns since the need for
citizen initiative and participation would be much less acute than now.
Let the Federal Government formulate the ruks for national elec­
tions and enforce them with strict impartiality but let us leave actual
conduct and financing of presidential campaigns to the people them­
selves. That is the American way and the best way

prospective doctors have visitied

the area.

The committee's goal ia to
recruit 3 family physicians, an in­
terna) medicine specialist and a
pediatrician by 11T7B. The Pen­
nock Hospital Physicians Center
has financially backed the
recruitment program.
Dr
Spindler
said
the
Physicians Center la rather
unique for a community thia aixe,
and does appeal to new
physicians. The area speaks for
itself with its excellent school
systems and the opportunity for
many activities He added there
are many medical students
choosing family practice as their
speciality, whereas 10 years ago
the emphasis in medical schools
was on specialization

Dr Spindler said securing
physicians is Barry County's No.

"Wnen children start Kin­

Miss Tangerstrorn added that

They explained that the

results, working with parents,
could provide teachers with
knowledge of what they can ex­
pect from their future Kin­

also help parents to determine

We at Reohm Motor Soles warn to help you select

been in business since 1936 ond since that time we've
seen many fad*. Go* shortages in a lew regions of the
country hove caused on over abundance of news
coverage, causing customer uncertainty about the size of
the cor he wonts.
In Hasting* we’ve really had no real problem* In
buying gasoline so that's important to remember when
you consider the kind of tran»porfallen YOU REALLY
NEED based on you; own INDIVIDUAL REQUIREMENTS.
When you think about safety, space, handling ond
economy, think of us hero at Reohm s We’ve got the one

and carefully consider the following Important factors:
1. Don't lot rumors score you-most people In Barry County
really haven't found getting gas to be a problem.
2. Of course, we recommend conservative measures for your
car oven in periods of relative abundance. Most any car driven
properly and maintained accordingly will provide satisfactory gas
mileage results.
3. Consider your individual needs--family, hauling requiremen­
ts. space needs, etc., an inadequate size car can cost you money
and convenience.
4. Make an honest effort to obtain all the facts before you
buy. The difference In gas mileage, for Instance, between a family­
size car and a compact may be negligible compared to space and
other inconveniences.
3. Think of all the safety factor* Ilka tiro size, apace, handling,
vltlblllty, size, comfort, brake* and performance.
The energy crisis has produced some drastic, and questionable
changes In some Instances of our motoring habits, but one positive
Improvement has developed. That’s the reduction of speed which
Is heartily endorsed and welcomed by all dealers who have always
boon deeply concerned with safety. If observed religiously, the
new limits will have a calming effect on the highway traffic and
generally contribute a safer, more enjoyable motoring at­
mosphere for ail drivers.
So If YOU are anticipating a now car, remember to GET ALL THE
FACTS. And when you do buy-.BUY LOCALLY. It |ust makes good
sense. Think of it.—local buy. local service, and local deals from
dealers who know you and want to help you boat this energy crun­
ch. And by driving your new car closer to homo you can spend more
time In it and get much mo. e enjoyment from It.

Township Meetinpi-Biiic ■Irnericana
The township meetings scheduled at the several "Town Halls"
here in Barry County this coming Saturday are a basic part of the
American political system and constitute the most personal and
democratic phase of our governmental procedures. At these
meetings everyone present ha* the right to speak on local issues and to
vote on matters pertaining to the conduct and management of a
segment of government that is closer to the people than any other
Government at the township level is viewed by some as minor and
unimportant That, tn our opinion is a major error in judgement If
townships are well organized and well run by citizen* who are in­
terested and alert in conducting their own affairs then you have a sub­
stantial basis for good government "all lhe way up "
At the town meetings Saturday budgets for the coming year will
probably be major items on the agenda It is the right of the majority
tospecify how local monies arc lobe spent but at hgntly attended town
meetings, this impnrtant function is too often left to a minority whose
decisions may or may not represent the wishes of the community. Yet.
those who were loo disinterested to devote lhe lime required lo attend
a town meeting have to abide by minority action no matter how angry*
they may be at the measures adopted
The nght to "sound off" under al) circumstances is a basic
American privilege However, the criticism of actions taken at
meetings by those who had the right to attend but didn't is more of a
reflection on themselves than on the action taken by those who did at­
tend Of coarse in any democratic process, there must always be a
majority and a minority The minority is certain to be defeated on
specific issues But the important factor is. they were working for
something specific in government and. while abiding by lhe majority
decision have lhe right to work for a change That is all a part of the
process of healthy, democratic government. The minority of today
may become the majority "next time around "
In our opinion active participation in township government at
least to the extent of being present at meeting* is a valuable act of
good citizenship In fact, there is nothing wrong with our democratic
system here tn the United States that can t be rectified by greater par­
ticipation by citizens
We hope the Town Meetings on Saturday are well attended. They
deserve to be

In our opinion. Sen James L Buckley was off base when he called
on President Nixon to resign as an act of great statesmanship
Resignation would neither remove nor lessen any of lhe tension*
that have kept this Nation in a turmoil for the past several months
Rather, it might create new ones Resignation would be accepted by
many as an admission of guilt and this could well lead to a new series
of inquiries, investigations, grand June*, etc The media, especially
Television, would have another field day
If the President did resign even though he felt himself free of any
involvement in activities of a criminal or treasonable nature, he would
have every right to insist on a fair trial in a Court of law-the civilian
equivalent of a court martial, so tospeak.
If the President is convinced in his own mind I hat he is quilty of no
impeachahle offenses then he should under no circumstances resign
Rather he should stand firm and demand tliat the House of Reprcscn
tatives present a bill of particular* that would hold water in court and
then let the process of impeachment take its own course Our con­
stitution has defined the course to be followed in clear language, as
well as the nature of the charges that warrant a trial for impeachment
conducted by lhe Senate
I respectfully wish lo reply (o
Even with Mr Nixon out of the way and Mr Ford installed as
Wendy Hoffman's open criticism,
President, all the persons now being tried on charge* advanced by lhe
printed in last week's Armchair,

There is another compelling reason why Mr Nixon should not
this subject, and find that since
resign if he is convinced of hi* own innocence of impeachable charges
If the media, through a continuing avalanche of charges, headlines,
editorials, comments, insinuations, etc., can fan public opinion into a
frenzy that forces the resignation of an administration, then our gover­
EVERY issue of The Banner per
nment will have changed Ils character for the worse Our constitution
taining to the HHS wrestling
was designed to permit the creation of a stable democratic govern­ team. There have been pictures
ment that avoided both dictatorship and the instability of popular
of wrestlers in action and tour­
governments that fall too quickly before lhe pulses of angry txiblic
nament news I can hardly con
opinion France is a case to point where, before Gen Charles ueGaulle

took over, governments could change every few week* or so and amid
of reporting
the turmoil the government did nothing
I understand that the Wrestler
Under the American system, the Presidency is a strong office and

although its power* are limited, and well defined actually provides
the authority that holds the government together and gives us united
Thu*, if Mr. Nixon, is convinced of his own innocence of im­
peachable charges, he owes It to the Nation to stand up and fight back
and not give way to the damaging precident that lhe Presidency of lhe
United States can be overturned by a continuing drumfire of media
criticism
If Mr Nixon is innocent, he must stand up and fight back; if he is
guilty his fall will be great; but at this stage of the game resignation is
out of the picture

tainly some bias in the manner of
their selection of the Wrestler of
the Week. For example, varsity
wrestler Doug Mead has a much
better win loss record than some
chosen for Wrestler of the Week
He also had the fastest pin Both
Mead and Noteboom placed 4th in
the Lamb tourney, along w.th

Traister and Hoke; however,
only Traister and Hoke made
Wrestler of the Week honors.
Hauschild came up from the JV's
to take Tratsler's place when
Terry dropped to a lower weight
class His varsity record does not
compare to some of the full­
season wrestlers, nevertheless,
he also took Wrest ler of the Week

While I certainly feel that all
the young athletes chosen were

feel that the manner in which
they were selected was not
altogether unbiased, as there
were certainly others just as
deserving. I therefore feel that all
the accusations aimed at the
reporting
staff
are
not
necessarily well founded
1 suggest. Miss Hoffman,
before you expound further with
criticism, you attempt to follow
Mr Youngs for perhaps just one
week and attempt to cover an the
various types of activities that
are of interest toall.
Not “bananas" over wrestling

Hoffman, that ALL the wrestlers

titude that it doesn't mean much

Most of us are concerned about
taxes, cost of government,
honesty in government, respon­
siveness of government. Usually
we associate our concerns with
State or Federal Government and
we feel frustrated that we as in­
dividuals teem lo be able to do so
little about it
We sometimes forget that an
important part of our govern
rnent is on a county, township,
and city level Recently the
papers have carried numerous
notices of annua) meeting* of
townships Too often these annual
township meetings are attend by
few citizens. One may take the at-

not attend Such apathy must to a
great extent carry over to larger
governmental units
If the individual citizen fails to
take a personal interest, is It any
wonder elected government offical* might begin to feel they
might as well do as they wish. At­
tendance at such meetings does
not mrin your ideas will prevail
Conslrutivc ideas, not just fault
finding, should be an objective
Attendance does give you a chan­
ce to hear and be heard. It remin­
ds ourselves that only by active
participation can we expect to
preserve our rights to active par-

Uclpatioo.
Each citizen has a right to
know what his government has
done, is doing, and plans lo do In
particular on a township level,
the annual meeting sets salaries,
approves a proposed budget and
may establish guide lines to help
the elected officials to operate in
harmony with the feelings of the
citizens

Experts Want Ban on Sale of
Turtles as Children’s Pets
Each year in this country thir­
teen and a half million
domestically bred turtles are sold
as pets for children. Most of them
die in a matter of a few months
due to Inadequate care and
feeding Humane considerations
aside, there is urgent need to ban
the sale of turtles tn order to
protect the health of humansespecially children
There is a yearly incidence of
300.000 cases of salmonellosis
with pet lortles-mort of the vic­
tims are children. Salmonellosis,
an acute febrile gastroenteritis,
can be severe enough to require
hospltalliation and in some In­
stances can cause meningitis and
brain abscesses.
Federal regulations passed in
December of 1977 required thal
turtles could be shipped only on
certificate stating they are free of
both salmonellosis and Arizona
species of bacteria. This
regulation has been proven
inadequate and it has been shown
that as high as 63% of the turtles
so certified are contaminated af­
ter shipment.
The U.S Center for Disease
Control declares that turtles are
inherently contaminated and can

never be permanently nd of the
bacteria In question They are
asking for a complete ban on the
sale of turtles as children pets as
a necessary health measure.

Is
there a
never failing
law
of good?
Is everything in life
fleeting and temporal—
or is it possible to &gt;« re­
leased from fear of loss
and from the confusing
"gray areas" which
cloud men's vision?

Many have found, as
you can. that the Chris­
tian concepts of un­
selfed love, paneiwc.
meekness endure and
wherever they touch
men's lives their influ­
ence for good multiplies.

In the Christian world
there is a book which
clearly relates Chris­
tianity to scientific and
invariable laws. It says
to us that God's law of
good is provable when
understood. This tvxjk
is Science and Health

several important upcoming
dates- Rummage Sale-Apnl 18­

at Peoples Church. East Lan
sing--Aprll 24; Presbyterian
Youth's Art and Hobby FairApril 27 and 28; and the Mothei
and Daughter Banquet-May 8
Mrs Baum introduced the
speaker for the Association's
Lenten meeting, the Rev
Michael Anton of Grace Lutheran
Church, who shared his personal
thoughts about present-day
disciplcs-thcae for whom Jesus
Christ Is Lord.
"Disciples"
is
a
term
Christians don't often use for
themselves In this day, but it is a
valid one We don't need to be
qualified, we become disciples
when we obey Jesus' cal! to
"fellow Hun " "Follow HIM-"
not asking. "What does the
church want me to do’"; "What
are other church members
doing?........... What will be my
respectable share?"
Too often we substitute our
middle class life style and values
for Jesus' call to radical obedien
ce And even when we hear the
call, within ourselves we set a
limit beyond which we will not let
Jesus intrude, a barrier to how
far we will go In absolute obedien
ce. Jesus is still the "disturber;"
He calls us to "love when we
don't feel like loving, to care
when we couldn't care less, and
to feed the hungry when we are
hungry ourselves/'
Rev Anton urged his listeners
to find out what Jesus Himself

that turned out to vote on the library board issue
The township board turned down tha library Issue,
then a few people took up o petition to have a special
•lection on the library that cost the township |ust over
$200 00
Now a person has on article In the Kolamatoo
Gazette that Insults the people of Hope and
Orangeville Townships by saying these townships ore
small and farther away from Delton so the residents
voted no
Anyone knows that all townships ore 6 miles square
and that Delton Is within a lew 100 foot of being In the
center of the four townships Already the library
board is considering asking Barry and Prairieville
Townships for more money I am glad Hope Township
is not a part of this I I praise the Hope and Orangeville
Township boards for giving the people a chance to toy
whether they con afford this added expense
Maybe this fall you should think about voting In
some township officers that will let you have
something to say about spending your money and
clean up some local WATERGATE I
I personally think that we hove one of the top volun­
teer fire departments. ye1 lo show you what con hap­
pen when 3-4 townships go together, we now have lo
pay for a $25,000 00 wafer tanker and a $40,000 00
to $50,000 00 addition on the fire born All this ex­
pense and you never hod a chance to vote on It I
When a farmer has lo pay $ 10.00 per acre per year
loxes II Is time someone started thinking about cut­
ting corners where possible and start saying nol
When year fares go up don't blame your township
supervisor and board of review because they only set
your assessment not your tar rate It is you the voter
and non-voler that sets the tax rate by the way you
vote or don't vote I
The taxes are getting so high In this area that the
next person who has nerve enough'lo ask for more
millage should be tarred and leathered'
Keep voting

combat the problem of food waste in the dormitories. Since MSU has

Tannian. proposes to outlaw the
private ownership of handguns,
by lhe most unique proposal yet:
Mr. Tannian is supporting a
privately funded petition drive to
put the ■WMOl on the November
general election ballot. The
proposal would amend the con­
stitution of lhe SUte of Michigan
to forbid ownership of handguns
far any purpose other than law
enforcement, among the uses
target practice.
Commissioner
Tannian's
proposal is similar to a bill rejec­
ted by the U.S. congress that was
proposed by Michigan's Senator
Philip Hart. Senator Hart's
proposal would have permitted
target practice, with the han­
dguns stored in a sealed vault at
the pistol range.
Comments on this proposal in­
cluded a printable one. by the
Director of the Michigan Stale
police. Colonel John Plants: "I
think Tannian's amendment
would only make criminals out of
many law-abiding citizens who
will not give up their guns.”
The whole issue began in the
mid-1700's, when the British
Colonial Forces occasionally

Their victory necessitated the
formation of a government to
replace the one that they had
removed The founders, realizing
that governments were not too
acceptable nt the time, propoaed
a series of limitations upon the
power of their government. One
limitation they' were agreeable to
was a provision to keep the gover­
nment from infringing on the
right to keep and bear arms The
e*pericncc of the British Colonial
Forcre was fresh In thetr minds.
Another matter was an Army,
or militia, to defend 'he new
country The idej of a new
Colonial Army was unpopular,
considering what had happened
with the last one. So, to prevent
any further trouble, they
fashioned the provision thus:
"A well regulated militia being
necessary to the security of a free
state, the right of the people to
keep and bear arms shall not be
infringed"
Therefore, the army could tend
U&gt; its job of defending lhe new
country, being forbidden by the
above regulation from in­
terfering with the rights of
gunowning citizens, and thus
precipitating another revolution

TO THE GAS CUSTOMERS OF CONSUMERS POWER COMPANY
NOTICE OF HEARING GAS ALLOCATION PROCEDURE
Cate No. U 3990

On January 15, 1974. Consumer* Power
Company filed with the Michigan Public Service
Commission a Supplement to Application in Case No.
U-3990, which requested that the Commission amend
pa'agraph "C" of its Order dated November 26, 1971
in Case No. U-3990. Consumers Power Company states
in us Supplement to Application that there exists in
the State of Michigan, and elsewhere throughout the
United Slates, a severe gas supply shortage, which
shortage, which shortage had made it necessary that
suppliers of natural gas, including Applicant's pipeline
suppliers, substantially curtail the deliveries of natural
gas to their customers. Consumers Power Company
also states, in its Supplement to Application, that, m
response to this shortage of natural gas, the
Commission granted Applicant authority to implement
a gas allocation procedure. One of the stated purposes
of the currently effective gas allocation procedure was
to alleviate the hardship then being experienced by
certain commercial and industrial customers. This
hardship existed because prior to the effective date of
such gas allocation procedure, gas usage of commercial
and industrial customers was restricted to "base year
allocations." Thus, weather-related increases in gas
consumption and increases in gas consumption arising
from increased usage of existing manufacturing or
processing equipment was precluded. Accordingly.
Applicant proposed, in its authority to create the
presently-effective gas allocation procedure, to
ameliorate this situation by making sufficient gas
available, independent of the proposed gas allocation
procedure, to permit commercial and industrial
customers then being served (other than those being
supplied gas from steam generating equipment, electric
generating erio.-.inent, or kilns rated at more than
50,000 cubic feet of gas per hour) to "fully utilize
their existing equipment" presently utilizing gas as a
primary fuel. In response to Applicant's proposal, the
Commission authorized Applicant, in paragraph "C" of
it* Order dated November 26. 1971. in Cate No.
U 3990. to.

" ..make available to its present customer*
(other than those now being supplied ga*
for steam generating equipment, electric
generating equipment, and kiln* rated at
more than 50.000 cubic feet of gas per
hour) sufficient ga* to fully utilize existing
equipment which is presently utilizing gas
as a primary fuef...”

In recent months. Applicant has been confronted
with the claim on several occasions that under the
quoted language from paragraph "C" of the November
26. 1971 Ordtr, existing customer* may utilize existing
equipment to heat new budding* or building additions.
The Applicant, uniformly, ha* denied this claim a*
being inconsistent with the intent of the gas allocation
procedure m general and the intent of paragraph "C"
of the November 26. 1971 Order in particular.
Accordingly. Applicant proposes that the Commission
amend its Order dated November 26. 1971, in Case
No. U 3990. so as to make clear that the u*e by
Applicant's existing customer* of existing equipment to
heat new building* or building additions i* precluded,
unless such use is restricted to an annual allocation of
ga* continent with the cudomer'i previous gas usage.
As set forth in the proposed paragraph "C."
Consumers Power Company proposes that ordering
paragraph "C" read as follows:
"C. Consumer* Power Company is
hereby authorized, independent of the gas
allocation procedure herein approved, to
make available to its present customers
sufficient gas to fully utilize (1) existing
manufacturing and commercial or industrial
processing equipment which is presently

using natural gas as a primary fuel, except
that Consumers Power Company shall
restrict customers who are now being
supplied gas for steam generating
equipment, electric generating equipment,
and kiln* rated at more than 50.000 cubic
feet of gas per hour, to the annual Mcf
capacity reservation contained in their
present gas service contracts or. d there is
no annual capacity reservation in their
contracts, to the base year allocation or the
commitment made by Consumers Power
Company in accordance with the gas sales
restrictions authorized by this Commission
m Case No. U-3778, and (21 existing space
heating equipment, provided there is no
expansion or addition in the area to be
heated. If an existing customer makes
additions to the area being served by
existing space heating equipment through
additions to the existing building or new
buildings, such customer shall be limited to
an annual allocation of gas consistent with
the customer's previous gas usage."

The Supplement to Application in Case No.
U 3990, together with the Commission's initial order
therein, is available for public inspection at the offices
of the Michigan Public Service Commission, Law
Building. Lansing, Michigan 48913, and at each local
office of Consumers Power Company.
The Commission has scheduled hearings on the
Supplement to Application, and it has ordered that
Notice be given that:
A. A public hearing will be held at 9.30 AM on
April 19, 1974 in the offices of the Commission in the
Law Building, Lansing. Michigan 48913. for purposes
of determining whet tier, or in wha« form, ordering
paragraph "C" of the Commission's Order in Case No.
U-3990 should be amended.

B. Any parties seeking to intervene in these
proceedings, in accordance with Rule 11 of the
Commission's Rule* of Practice and Procedure, shall
file with the Commission at least five (5) days prior to
April 19. 1974, an original and six (6) conformed
copies of the Petition to Intervene, together with Proof
of Service, upon Consumers Power Company.
C. THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO
ORDERING
PARAGRAPH "C” OF
THE
COMMISSION'S ORDER IN CASE NO. U 3990
DESCRIBED IN THIS NOTICE IS IN THE FORM
REQUESTED BY CONSUMERS POWER COMPANY.
THE MICHIGAN PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION
MAY EITHER AUTHORIZE ITS ADOPTION IN
THE FORM REQUESTED, DENY ITS ADOPTION.
OR MAY ORDER THE ADOPTION OF A NEW
ORDERING PARAGRAPH "C" IN A FORM
DIFFERENT FROM THAT DESCRIBED HEREIN.

Jurisdiction of the Commission in this Order is
pursuant to Act 300. Public Act* of 1909. as amended
(MCLA 462.21, Act 419. Public Acts of 1919. as
amended (MCLA 460.51). Act 3. Public Act* of 1939.

If a small car is too small and a full-size car is too
big, come drive our mid-size Mercury Montego

It runs on regular gas. And based on our esti­
mate of national average costs, lhe '74 Montego

is designed to reduce scheduled maintenance costs
by as much as 22% in 60,000 miles of normal
driving when compared to last year's models.

YouII find our Montego roomy and comfortable
...with the ease of handling you want in a mid-size

car. Its ride is smooth and quiet on an extra-wide

stance with the same type of suspension system
as our most expensive luxury car. Today, more than
ever, our mid-size Mercury Montego mokes sense
for a whole lot of people. Al the sign of he cat.

Try our ’74 Montego on for size. It’s wearing the right-sized
price tag, too. Right now!

See you at the sign of the cat! It's the sign of the times!

How does agriculture fit into
the energy picture? In 1972, U J.
agriculture used about 6.3 billion
gallons of fuel. This breaks down
into 4.0 billion gallons of gasoline
and 2.2 billion gallons of diesel
fuel.
Overall,
agricultural
production uses about 3% of the
national petroleum fuel con­
sumption, the same ptoportion
used in 1939 and slightly less than
3% of the electricity generated in
IheUX

in 1973- Compare this with 4.4
gallons of petroleum fuel per

petroleum

power machines far

Should American agriculture
turn back the clock to the days
when farm technology used far
less fossil fuel-1 8 billion gallons
of petroleum in 1939 compared
with 8.2 billion gallons in 1972
&lt; plus an additional billion gallons
of liquified petroleum)? What if
farm technology remained
stagnant since 1939? How dif­
ferent would agriculture be
today? ••
...It would take 31 billion hours
of labor instead of 6.4 billion.
..The farm work force would
be 18.5 million people instead of
4.4 million.
...There would be 1.5 million
tractors rather than 4 5 million
now on farms.
...Twenty-seven million horses
and mules would be needed to
replace the tractors.
■
...Nearly 648 million acres of
land instead of the present 296
million crop acres would have to
be harvested. At least 81 million

provide feed for the horses and
mules.

'
When the total food chain is
considered-production, processi­
ng. transport, and manufacturing
related to agriculture, estimates
of energy consumption range
from 12-20% of the national total.
Expressed another way. it is
estimated that an energy
equivalent of 150 gallons of
gasoline is needed to produce,
harvest, process, and deliver
feed for every per»v«i In lire U.S.
It takes only 4% of the UJ.
population to produce more food
than the country needs, although
there have been recent tem­
porary shortages of some com­
modities Abundant food supplies
are made possible largely
petroleum fuels and petroleum
based
fertilizers.
Thus,
agriculture in .he U.S. is highly
dependent on petroluem fuels.
Even though food price* in-

spent only 14% of their disposable
centage
in this

•applies of reasonably priced
food, agriculture will need ■ eontiuuing supply of petroleum fuel
or a suitable substitute.
Looking beyond U.S. food needs
it is apparent that agricultural
exports constitute an important
segment of U.S. international
trade. Total exports of agricul­
ture commodities in fiscal
year 1972 amounted to M 1 billion
and 1973 agricultural export*
jumped to &gt;12 9 billion. Projected
agricultural exports for 1974 are

Michigan Tax Cumnussioo. at­
tended a Friday evening, March
29, meeting al Prairieville Town­
ship Hall to hear the concerns,
problems and suggestions of a
group of Barry County farmers.

Dennis Hall explained a
proposed bill which is expected to
be signed by the governor and
would grant the farmer lax relief
to help preserve farm land. Un­
der lhe proposed voluntary
program, the farmer would be
issued a 10 year contract, through
the Slate land Agency, which
would take development rights
off his property, and thus allow a
tax credit based on 7% of total
household income For example.
come of 110,000 is 1700 Therefore,
a 11,200 property tar minus the
6700 would yield a credit or
rebate of ISCfl

formulate the credit. In order for
the program to provide any tax
relief to the farmer, hia expenses
of feed, fertiliser, etc. should not
be included as household income.
One member of the audience
pointed out that sometimes a far­
mer's expenses run higher than
the income a fanner has to live
on.
Wayne Sackett agreed that the
net income figure should be used.
In addition to the proponed
voluntary program, the farmer
would still be eligible for credit

legislature last year

lhe farmer The recent 10% jump

the problem Sackett said a bill
introduced to relieve the
problem, died in committee, and
agreed the increases should not
continue.

The proposed budget for
Hastings general fund operations
for the fiscal year 1974-73 I* at a
record &gt;966,719 but will require no
increase in the property tai levy.
Mayor Pro Tern Ivan Snyder
reported to City councilmen at
their regular meeting Monday
night.
The rale will again be 1ISJ1
per tl.OM valuation, with the In­
crease in the assessment roll
providing the additional funds to
operate the municipality.
The assessment roll totals
t38.85l.H00. a 7.5 percent or
t2.Ml.M0 increase over last
year s valuations of $23.651.200
While the general fund
estimate of expenditures is short
of a million dollars, the separate
water and sewer system budget
and the Public Library budget
sends the overall cost of
operating the City well over the
million dollar mark
The waler-sewer operal mg cwt
is estimated at $234,000, and the

Public Library coats $36,710 to
operate The City's share of that
will be $21,000 as the library's
request for a $1,760 increase was
not granted Mayor Pro Tern
Snyder said the library this year
expects Io finish with a &gt;4.000
balance
Snyder explained Ibal many
proposed Items had to be slashed
from the budget to hold the line
against a lai increase. Included
tn prelects eliminated was the
tn.WO job of widening Center
Street.
The new budget is $84,255
higher than the 1973-74 budget
The fiscal year start* July I.

proved the purchase of a newfront end Caterpillar loader at a
net cost of $23.BK The Qly is

Tlie motion to approve the con­
tract was made by Aiderman

mended it Brown said Williams
A Works would provide the
municipality with "continuous
planning" and would also keep

Gifts of Documents Valuable to Nation
If President Nixon was morally wrong in claiming an income tax
deduction for presenting his private vice-presidential paper* to the
Nation, then there are countless thousands of respected citizens in the
United States including members of Congress who are equally guilty
of claiming deductions of a similar nature.
Even- since the income Lax system has been in force (and ex­
tending back to World War I), the donation of valuable papers,
documents, artifacts, etc., to governments both State and Federal,
Colleges and Universities, public museums, etc., have been
recognized as legitimate deductions in the estimate of income taxes
This was to encourage donations of gifts having historic or cultural
value to public institutions where they would find a permanent home
and be available for general or special use and thus keep them out of
the hands of private collectors where, over the years, through sale and
resale, they might become scattered, damageci by mishandling or lost.
Items In private collections are, of course, not open to the public
and only under exceptional circumstances to student* and scholars.
Thus income deductions in the categories mentioned above, con­
stitute the government's way of bidding against wealthy private

No More Homework—The dream

tifact*.
There is no reason to doubt that the Nixon Papers are worth every
penny claimed, and. in fact, on the open market would probably have
brought much more and. as is usual with such material would have ap­
preciated in value during the years ahead

Nixon Abiding By Committee’s Decision
Regarding the technicalities involved that negated the intention of
the gifts—that will have to be left to the lawyers” Mr. Nixon is abiding
by his promise to accept lhe decision of the special Investigating com­
mittee without appeal However, the public should be informed a&gt; to
whether in addition to the alleged technical violations, there was any
evidence of deliberate intent on the part of lhe President to defraud his
government. Technical errors indicate incompetence and
carelessness on the part of legal aides. A deliberate intent to defraud is
something of an entirely different color-a serious, moral wrong. To
date, however, not one member of lhe special committee investigating
the Presidents income tax involvements has neither charged nor come
through with any proof connecting Mr. Nixon, even indirectly with in­
tent to deceive.
It was an unfortunate command decision of Mr. Nixon's to make
the gift while he was serving as President, even though his
predecessor in office had made a similar gift, under similar cir­
cumstances to take advantage of a tax deduction-and Lyndon B. John­
son was a multi-millionaire at the time.
Mr Nixons papers would have been just as valuable after he left
office and he. himself, free of the political climate in Washington and
the bitter animosity of the media Under such circumstances ne could
have made the gift and taken allowable deductions with no criticism
from anyone. Despite what prior presidents had done, it would have
been a more statesmanlike action and a better example for the Nation
One factor we have never seen questioned is how and by whom the
personal tax information was made public Income tax information is
supposed to be highly confidential-a personal matter between lhe tax­
payer and his government If American reporters can secure in­
formation held in “highly classified” government files, it indicates
that foreign agents in search of important government secrets could
do die same Although many important Washington personalities have
applauded the disclosure of information concerning Mr. Nixon
because it coincides with their own political objectives. they would
probably scream to high heaven if their own private tax matters were
aired in public. As liberal* are so wont to say, "It all depend* on whose
ox is being gored."

Security Measures Must Be l-'ery Lax
The ease with which high level information can be snitched from
classified Federal files, indicates that security measures in
Washington are very lax and, for the good of the Nation, especially in
its dealing* with foreign nations, need considerable tightening. Even
those who applaud the disclosure concerning Mr. Nixon might see the
danger in this sort of looseness if it became evident that important in­
formation concerning national defense were being obtained by un­
friendly governments.
National security is not a matter of partisan politics even though
anti Nixon partisans were doubtless highly pleased when security was
broken to release unfavorable information concerning an unpopular
president But ence the pattern of security is broker., the whole
security system is in danger.
Watergate, impeachment and the President's tax troubles have
been permitted to drag on and on without end. The country has suf­
fered domestically and abroad not so much from Watergate, itself, a*
from the highly slanted manner in which it has been handled by the
media and in congress and the end is not in sight

were taken to the hospital. My
two children and I were put in the
pediatrics ward to await the
arrival of family member*
driving down to get us Waiting in
the hospital only served to
remind us even more of the
tragedy that had happened and
increase the loneliness.
Mr and Mrs Charlie Owle,
who were at the hospital visiting
a very ill relative, heard of our
mishap on their way out of the
hospital and offered to take us to
their home. They took us to a
Holiday Inn which was owned by
the man's brother and gave us a
room. They brought us 'ood in the
room and took us .several places
we needed to go. They stayed
with us ail day even when we in­
sisted we would be alright alone
and were there even when our
relatives arrived at 2:30 the next
morning. They gave us two more
rooms for the family that night
and breakfast the next morning
Before we left they brought a
handmade basket, maps, and
card* for me and bead* and
souveniers for the children with
the hope that they would give us
some pleasant memories to
remember them by. For all this
they would take no money what­
soever. In time of sorrow it is
comforting to know tlust people,
even strangers, can be so helpful,
considerate, and und&lt;rV..indir&gt;g
With the help from the people in
Cherokee and the many won­
derful things done by the people
from the community, this time of
sorrow has been eased im­
mensely. It is really good to know
that even in these times people
still take time to care.

To the Editor:
I would like.to correct Darlene
Harper's letter in some areas
where she herself flounders for
facts and figures It concerns the
BPOH Ambulance where she ac­
cuses me of being responsible for
the resignation of Bob Williams
from the Ambulance service Hi*
resignation stemmed from a
totally
different
situation
resulting from a complaint by let­
ter from a Barry Township
resident. It had nothing to do with
my conversations with Mr
William*
I called Mr. Williams originally
because of another situation and
we had a pleasant conversation.
We discussed the possibility of a
referral system in the event
another emergency arose while
the ambulance was already in
service. It was during this call
Mr Williams related to me that

discussed this with Carl Sheerin,
the Township Clerk, and he said
he had absolutely no objections I
talked to Carl that evening and he
agreed the matter should be
resolved at once. I discussed this
with no one prior to talking to Mr.
Sheerin and at that time I men­
tioned that perhaps the Town­
ships should furnish the BPOH
Ambulance with a phone of their
own for emergencies and service
(When I talked to Williams some
20-25 minutes had elapsed using
the
only
business
phone
available.)
Mr. Williams apparently
retracted what he had related to
me since that time BUT as far as
I was and am concerned that
matter was closed when it was
made known that the entire town­
ship WOULD BE COVERED
Mr*. Harper feels that I have
included the Fire Dept on my
“enemies list." I have previously
and persistently, I admit,
suggested that the Fire Chief and
lhe Township Deputy offer Ac­
tivity Reports or Log*, to the
Board at regular meetings, if out
of only fairness to their respec­
tive departments I think the
public IS interested and is en­
titled to know what they are
doing. A portly amount of tax
dollar is devoted to these two
departments And I find myself
agreeing with the Fire Chief, that
he would like to see a volunteer

I voted at the first meeting coccerning the library-against
resuming the library contract in
Delton, however, after hearing a
more complete version, 1
changed my mind on the issue
Having been with the Scouting
movement. I can't count the
times I wished there was an ac­
tive library system nearby for
the use of various books, projec­
tors. films, tapes, etc. I do not
consider the ''overwhelming"
defeat of the library a* mine. I
think it is a loss to lhe com­
munity. While I am grateful for
Mrs Harper's concern for my
mental “depression" I know a
stacked deck when I see one. The
entire board was thoroughly op­
posed to the library, the ap­
pointed chairpersons along with
the majority of members of the
library committee, was also
against the library as such.
The Library Committee was
laid down) but I was continually
being greeted with "Oh, I already
signed against that library-or
some one is really trying to cram
that library down our throats."
When you hear that phrase
enough times you sort of get the
idea someone is pushing a little
propaganda of their own "What
about the BPOH Library" was
not designed to be passed with
survey shcets-but in a six mile
area, this is conceivable, many

crossed paths. My own personal
letter went “mysteriously" to
some via mail-and it was
thoroughly non-biased asking
them to vote one way or anotherwith the explanation at the bot­
tom about revenue shanng-which
oddly enouub-came from a
definition of tne money receivedfrom the treasurer as he gave hi*
report. Revenue Sharing can and
is being used for Library pur­
poses I understand that Hope is
now going to use their funds for
that purpose. The township board
agreed to abide by the wishes of
the people and as far as I. and
others, are concerned, this is
being disregarded.

To the Editor:
This is part of a letter published
in our church paper and I believe
it is of vital interest to all church
members.
There is a "sleeper" section at­
tached to a piece of legislation
being considered in Congress
which, if passed, would abolish
lhe deductible feature of all chur­
ch and charitable contributions
from income taxes.
Garry Brown the Represen­
tative from our area, has verified
thia as biU HR. 636 Section 312.
Such a section when attached to
a bill is known as a "sleeper”
because it is possible for it to
become a part of lhe total bill
without being sufficiently noticed
and considered. If passed, it
would mean that all cnurch and
charitable contributions would no
longer be lax-deductible after
January of 1973.
If this matter concerns you,
you are URGED to Immediately
get in touch with your Senators
and Representatives, and give
them your clear reaction.

a school paper is a substitute for
a town newspaper, I feel that
adequate interest must be
generated first, in any event,
before unlimited time and space
can be devoted to It. In a recent
publication, gale receipts for
various sports were published
and those from wrestling mat­
ches were minimal. Before any

to any activity, there must be
evidence, of sufficient interest,

Call Direct to Get
Legislative Results
The best way to get jour
opinion across to a legislator, or
to get action on a problem is to
call him on the telephone, State
Senator Harry DeMaio of Battle
Creek told local citizen* Monday.
April a, at the legislative Break­
fast held at the Big Tee. arranged
by the Area Chamber of Com
mere*.
Senator DeMaso. here with
Stale Rep. Wayae Sackett of
Kalamazoo. was answering a
question from Chamber of Com­
merce President Arthur Steward
Jr., who read a communication
from U.S. Senator Griffin s office
acknowledging the receipt of a
letter, saying nothing else that
waa relevant.
DeMaio declared he had stop­

ped iust answering letters, and
said he wrote back only when be
could tell the constituent
something Just as often, he said,
he picks up the phone to discuss
the matter after conferring with
th e proper agenci es
Both DeMaio and Sackett
discussed current business and
legislative problems with the 34
at the breakfast
DeMaso taki the legislature
would pass a bill providing Viet­
nam veterans with a bonus, end
that a &lt;32h million dollar bond
issue to finance it would be on lhe
November ballot. He saM the
Vietarrn combat veteran would
rece've MM and the non-combat
vet MM.
He decland that the goal was

to make Michigan 100 percent
competitive with other state* in
providing a good business
climate for industry Plans are
now lo provide tax credits on per
tonal property.
It
was
explained
that
eliminating lhe sale* tax on food
and prescription drugs presented
more of a problem than most
people realize, and an added bur­
den for the businessman. A
system of providing income tax
credit might be wiser
DeMaso said lhe energy crista
should end by July and the Mate's
economy should improve along
DeMaso declared that the
railroads should be made a part
of the mass transit system,
rather than have them aban
doned. He explained that
Michigan highway* have not
been built for the future and that
our road* already provide a rash
hour problem
Very outspoken, DeMaso wanU
the government to get out of the
businews of trying to run private
enterprise, and to let private
business do what it is capable of
doing.

Ao for the need for more gun
control laws, DeMaso said
Michigan ha* had a gun law since
1923. and all we have to do is start
enforcing the law* we have to
have good control
No matter how tight our gun
laws are, the illegal gunman will
have a gun.
As an after thought, DeMaso
said II might be a good idea for
the Legislature to call a halt on
passing new law*, spend a
year cleaning up the old ones and
then getting around lo enforcing
the good ones that are left

PLANTING CORN IN l«4

Shallow planting
should be used for early planting
(late Apnlearly May) For moat
other situations a planting depth
of lh lo 2 inches is optimum.
When the soil is dry. adjusting the
planting depth to place the seed
in moist soli may be beneficial.
However, depth should not ex­
ceed three inches on a flnetextured soil and four inches on a
coarse textured soil Depth
should always be chcckrd at Die

start of planting in each field
In tests at Michigan Slate
University com planted May 1-9
averaged 9 percent higher in
yield than that planted May 12-20
and 16 percent more than that
planted May 22-31 on mineral
soils.
Date of planting trials con­
ducted at East Lansing over a
period of )5 years tend to show a
slight advantage in yield for
early May as compared to late
Apni planting Additional data
shows that early planting is
profitable for both early ana late

EDITORIAL
by R.M.C.
California Joins 'Tax Nixon' Claque
California, so we read, has Joined the "tax Nixon" claque. Next in
line, we presume, will be Florida and New York Stale One can't won
der why all the delay If it takes the Federal Government more than
seven yean to find errors in the income tax preparation of ao
prominent an individual as the 1’resident of the United Slate* and wilh
California chiming in only after Washington had extracted penalty
taxes extending back beyond the statute of limitations, then one can
only conclude that there must be something wrong with the system.
In fact. Dr I. Hart Wright, professor of taw al the University of
Michigan, who has devoted years of his life to the Internal Revenue
Code, terms the Federal Income taw as "the most complicated law
known toman "
"So many laymen." Prof Wright said, "think tax preparation is
math." That's the easiest part But the hard part is applying the taw to
a set of facta which wiD vary in infinitesimal ways in different
situations "
Although the IRS claims everyone should be able to compute his
own tax. with some help from an instruction booklet and maybe a
phone call to the nearest IRS office. millions of U S citizens do not find
it that way and are reeking the assistance of experts to help them
through the income lax maze-"expert*." some of whom, may be in­
competent er worse The Income tax Code vanes in particulars from
year to year as the taw is amended and often from month to month as
appeals hand down decisions in regard to contested items
In fact, the nature of these appeals indicates that legal experts
themselves differ as to the meaning and Intent of the code as It applies
to specific situations and that penalties can be assessed on Technical
grounds against individuals who had no intention of misrepresenting
their claims
Thus, an income tax "expert" who was fully competent in 1372
might find himself error -prone in 1974 unless he had kepi abreast of all
the changes, new rulings, interpretations, etc.
Strange ar It may seem, the IRS docs not oversee or license any of
the income tax auditors or auditing firms. Anyone can qualify and
open business merely by hanging out a shingle or putting an ad in a
newspaper. Thus It ta not surprising that there is a variation in quality
and results among the private Income tax auditors and auditing firms
A recent article in the U. of M Journal of Law Reform, quotes former
IKS Commissioner J M Walters as saying that in 1972 a sample
examination of returns filed by 3.174 commerrisl income tax
Kren revealed that more than 2.200 "appeared to have prepared
oct returns " A Treasury Department project in seven stales in­
dicated that only 30 out of 536 commercially prepared returns were
correct This does not indicate that all commercial firms are in­
competent. since many claim and can prove excellent records, but
merely that firmer policies arc needed combined with higher
qualifying standards
In view of the complexity of the present income tax code and ita
ever changing nature, one must recognize the fact that even experts
can be in error
One can't help but wonder how U.S Senators and Representatives
would fare if their individual income tax returns were given the same
fine tooth combing for technical errors that the President's received
Also how would the Congressmen react if thei. income tax reports
were blared forth I o the public by the media?
The screaming would be tremendousI
After assessing the President a half million dollars or so because
of alleged technical flaws in the gift of his vice-presidential papers to
the Nation, the Federal Government, so we read, refuses to return the
papers on the grounds that it was a legal gift' In essence, therefore,
the President is being forced to pay half a million dollars lor giving U&gt;
Unde Sam. a gift worth considerable more than half a million dollars!
Truly, these are "w-rewhall" timea in which we live!

Michigan April—In a Class by Itself!
For pure variety, a Michigan Anril Is in a class by itself. As the old
saying goes, if you don't approve of weather conditions at the moment
wait an hour or two and perhaps you'll Find things exactly to your
liking-and then auin. maybe not! But, along with such change of pace
items as rain. cold, brief bursts of snow and gusty winds, comet a
clear day of sunshine like Saturday, heralding the reawakening of
nature from the hibernation of wintertime as spring begins to assert it­
self. Then you can rest assured that in only a matter of a very few
weeks, the dull gray of the woodlands will be tinged with a faint glow of
green as the new crop of leaves push outward to greet the elements
and the yellow brown of the field* transformed to an emerald car­
peting These rapid and tempermental weather change* are what
make a bright, clear April day so utterly delightful if it is true that
variety is tlw spice of life, then April is indeed a grand old month.

Vandal* Give Student Body ‘Blackeye’
There is no reason to believe that Ned O. White's account of sen­
seless property destruction at the new Hastings High School was
exaggerated - in fact, he may have erred, if anjrthing. on the side of
restraint The vandalism (for that is exactly what it was) was un
doutxedly done by a very small minority of the students—and yet. the
entire student body gets a Nack eye as a result
Petty vandalism of this sort k* almost impossible to prevent Un

It is easy to talk of strict discipline—and. indeed, everyone might
benefit from stricter standards of conduct-but liberal court rulings
have taken most of the teeth out of discipline and all in the name of tne
protection of individual civil rights as guaranteed by the U.S. Con­
stitution
The courts are telling school boards and school administrations
what (hey can and cannot do in matters of discipline. This, in our
opinion is interference in an area where Ihe courts nave no right to be
in that they are undermining (he governing authority of the schools
without taking any day by day responsibility in the administration of
school affairs
Boards, for example, that have attempted to enforce minimum
codes of dress and conduct. have often been hailed into court by irate
parents and overruled on grounds of undue interference with the civil
rights of an individual In fact, when one speaks of the lack of
discipline in the schools, it is only fair to ask whether the faculty or the
parents are more at fault Do the schools ever get proper support from
parents when it comes to taming down unruly youngsters?
We have no ready answer to the problem if petty vandalism even
though the destruction involved is costing taxpayers throughout the
State milliuna of dollar* every ) ear -dollar* so desperately needed for
constructive use in education In fad. we doubt that a practical an­
swer can be given until the courts cease the trend of going to such
illogical extrema in matters pertaining to civil rights
Individuals do have civil rights-but so does society as a whole. To
keep the Nation on an even keel there must be a sensible balance between the right* of the individual and the rights of society- something
we do not now have This situation. In our opinion will change only if
and when the public gets sufficiently angry and aroused to demand a
change-and that time doc* not seem near at hand
Someday, too the vandak who destroyed public property at the
school will themselves be taxpayers-and then they will, perhaps for
the first time, understand what this argument is all about.

Super Highway: Will it Bring Progress
It is with mixed emotions that one reads of plans to build a billion
dollar super highway acros* Africa linking the Atlantic and Pacific
Oceans acrota tne continent's waist, bringing all the "benefits" of ad­
vanced civilization to the six countries of Kenya. Uganda. Zaire,
African Republic. Cameroon and Nigeria
The four-lane road will cut through such areas as the Iturbi forest
where Africa's famed Pygmies have lived undisturbed by progress
since time immemorial. will skirt Uganda's famed snow-tipped moun­
tains of the moon and cross the plains of Kenya's vast game preserves
Feedei lines eminating from this main highway will form a developing
-• V of roads that will eventually span the entire continent.
—•
^^Todoubtedly rich deposits of valuable raw ms tensIs will be
discovered ana new industries developed Hoards of well-heeled
tourists will follow in the wake of expanding roadways to be com­
fortably housed in new accommodations created and manned by com­
peting motel cha:m The resulting influx of wealth could provide the
conglomerate of nations where pockets of extreme poverty exist.
Progress is Inevitable but material prosperity has a way of
creating more problems than it solves But as African civilization JOth
Century Style develops, one can't help but wonder what the fate of the
once glorious "Wild Kingdom" will be? Inevitably the teeming animal
life that once roamed through thousands of square miles of coun
try side will have to be restricted to reservations of ever-diminishing
size with the ultimate survival of many of the species in question
Conservationists will have a giant battle on their hands to
adequately protect and perpetuate one of Africa’s moat unique resour­
ces—tnc wild game of infinite variety that has up to now been the
hallmark of what was once called "The Dark Continent ."

Nancy says mos: people are
very friendly to her. "maybe

Fred could hardly be charac­
ter! led as old, though fire horse
he is Ackett recently handed in
his letter of resignation from the
Nashville Maple Grove Castleton
fire department after only 44 of­
ficial yean of following fires
Actually, he started going to
fires in Nashville long before he
joined the department Fred can
remember when horses really
pulled the fire equipment “When
I was just a kid." fie says, "they
used to have hose houses with fire
equipment in them spotted all
over town. Mv dad and Mike Appelman's grandfather ran a dray
line. and the deal in those days
was the first one.to a hose house
with a horse and wagon to hook
on to the fire cart, got a dollar for
pulling the cart to the fire. If the
draymen didn't get there in time,
the volunteer firemen just pulled
the cart by hand. When I heard
the alarm, I would take off for the
closest hose house, hoping to
meet my father and get a ride to
the fire.’'
Ackett will tell about the old
days of fire chasing at the drop of
a hat. “One day when I was
young. I heard the whistle blow
and I started for the hose house.
On the way, I saw Seth Graham
who hadn't heard the whistle and

he took hold of my Kind and star­
ted off at a run. Now, £elh was
known for his ability to run the
mile. Wasn't no one in the area
could keep up with Seth! and here
I am trying to keep up with him
nnd my feet weren't hitting the
ground more than once every ten
yards or so. I finally told him.
'Seth, just let me go alone and I'll
meet you at the fire.’"
“Back in the old days," Fred
says, "there used to be a laundry
in Nashville That place used tq
take fire about once or twice a
week for a time. It got so the
firemen just headed for the laun­
dry, knowing that was where the
lir.wat "

Nashville will be without an

ASCS to Conduct 2 Rural
Conservation Programs in 1974.
The Agricultural StabilizaHon
and Conservation Service will
conduct 7 rural soil and waler
conservation programs this year
instead ol the usual one
Hila unique situation arose
from a U.S. District Court
decision reversing the action
which terminated the 1973 Riral
Environmental
Assistance
Program (REAP). As a result,
funds are now available for imptanenting the 1973 REAP, as
well as the new Rural En
vironmental
Conservation
Program &lt; RECP) authorized oy
the Agriculture and Consumer
Protection Act of 1973.
Rural residents have until May
1 to sign up for RECP cost-share
funding of soil and water con
servation practices under long­
term agreements. Requests for
annual practices under RECP
will be received as long as funds
last, while sign-ups for cost-

sharing under the 1973 REAP will
be available on a similar basis
The major difference between
the two programs is increased
emphasis on forestry production
practices and implementation of
long term cost-share agreements
under RECP
In addition to forestry in­
centives, RECP provides help for
landowners to establish and
follow
recommended
conservatlon practices of a per­
manent nature at a time when
farmers are being called on for
all-out production to meet
domestic and export needs
It is also worth noting that
counties may retain the option of
continuing practices included tn
the 1970 county program but not
provided for in the current
national program -but only un­
der provisions of the 1973 REAP
This option has been deleted from
the new RECP.

the disease.
Gideon explained that all
equine species are susceptible to
the disease, caused by a virus
and spread by the transfer of
blood. The immune system of the
infected hone responds to the
presence of the virus with a com­
plex reaction that cause s the rup­
ture of red blood cells and ad
ditionally. retards the adequate
production of red blood cells. The
hone becomes anemic and often
dies
EIA is most commonly spread
by biting insects but the virus
can also be transmitted by a
curry comb coming in contact
with a scratch on an infectqd hor­
se and then being used on an unin­
fected horse ana again coming in
contact with an open sore.

work on clocks Since that time
be has built and sold IB grand­
father's clocks, each of them in­

alike In addition, he has several
hand made wall clocks
Elmer's first dock was built as
a hbur of love Back in iv7f.
Elmer started wotting with some
rough walnut he had purchased
at an auction He wound up with a
grandfather's clock cabinet, car­

glued to the cabinet, they are car­

The clock, which Elmer keeps
in his home, stands well over
seven feet tall (m uch too tali for a
shelf) and weighs more than 250
pounds Elmer says he has
moved it from one place in lhe
home to the spot it now occupies.
To do so, he had to lake lhe works
and weights out of it. Tbe works
alone weigh over 106 pounds, end
were manufacture^ in Mississip­
pi. Carved into toe top of the
cabinet is a spread eagle
According to Janie, weight

On the very day be finished
working on one dock, be started
drawing the plans for another
one. "While 1 was wotting on this
one," Elmer said, pointing lo a
beautiful creation of African
mshogony and walnut, I got the

return of Christ, la divine
healing, and in salvation through
faith tn Christ. These are still
major doctrines of the A-vemblies of God.
Although today the charismatic
movement Is often accepted in
the mainline churches, those who
responded to the PentecoVal
revivial early in this century soon
found themselves no longer
welcome

Reluct ent ly leaving lhe chur
chcs which rejected tnem, the
Pentecostal believers met in infsnna! groups at Gist Wlute op­
posed to organization for its own
sake, they gradually became con­
vinced of the necessity for that
step
In calling the initial meeting,
E N Bell, a former Baptist
minister, and other Iraden of
what was to become the Astern b
lies of God, listed five reasons for
coming together at Hot Springs
These included doctrinal unity,
conservation of lhe work, foreign
missions interests, chartering
churches under a common name

for Bible training.

The commissioners by an 8 3
margin Tuesday. April 23, adop
ted a Solid Waste Management
Plan for Barry County The
Board
of
Commissioners,
through the Barry County Plan­
ning Commission, had retained
Gove Associates of Kalamaroo as
professional engineers and com­
munity planning consultants to
formulate the study
State Public Act 89. which wa*
adopted in 1971. had required
solid waste planning
The
existing solid waste situation In
the county was reviewed in terms
of generation, collection, disposal
and administration
From the information compiled
by Gove Associate* it wa* lear­
ned that in 1974 there were 12
licensed landfills in Barry Coon
ty, and the resident* of the county
generated 101.243 cubic yards of
solid waste It is estimated that in
1994 this volume will increase to
over 242.338 cubic yards
Several
methods
were
analysed for the county and it
was found that the most
economical and efficient course
of action would be to utilise fully
the existing landfills which have
sufficient future capacity, with

the aid of a few container sites to
serve those portions of lhe county
not within a rcar-mable distance
of a landfill
If adopted this method would
leave very few people outside a
si* mile radius of some means of
Commissioners

An even larger group of lake

EDITORIAL

System « Not Perfect—But Still Best
According to an opinion poll conducted by the University of
Michigan, a rather sizeable percentage of Americans say they have
lost faith in our system of government and believe that it is no longer
responsive to lhe wishes of the people
The U 8. Government since it got underway in 1789 has never been
perfect and probably never will be Hut among lhe major nations of
the world, no other system of government has ever achieved an equal
degree of stability combined with such personal freedoms, as the righl
of dissent, the right of self expression, lhe right to participate in the
selection of government officiate and the right to hold office
Under our system of government, dictatorial rule is impossible
and the rights of legislative and judicial authority carefully defined.
Although few, if any. dictators wield more executive authority than a
U.S President, the terms of office are limited and the exercise of
authority Is limited by the legislative rights of Congress and power of a
Supreme Court to over rule both the Congress and the President on
matters where Constitutional rights are involved. With such a system
of checks on the use of power, the balance of authority, though seldom
maintained at dead center, is never likely to sw ing too (ar out of line in
any direction before counter measure* aimed at restoring the proper
balance get underway
Tne United States Government was designed to maintain 3 high
degree of stability even in face of healed differences of opinion that
are certain to sweep across any nation whose citizens are free to ex­
press themselves openly and without fear of punishment. A govern­
ment where freedom of speech exists is always in danger of having
substantial segments of its population fall prey to agitators whose real
objectives are not always above board and honorable Therefore an
inherent stability capable of riding out such storms is essential

Voting Record Not Impressive
We wonder—how many of those who claim the present syst
government is unresponsive to lhe people have ever worked for the
nomination and election of a candidate for office; have taken part in a
political convention, or have voted in a primary or general election.
The American voting record is not impressive
Many years ago the nomination of candidates for many of the key
offices at the state and local levels (including candidates for
Congress) was taken from party conventions in favor of a primary
election system where lhe candidates would be nominated ana elected
by direct action of public. That te, candidates wishing to run oo a party
ticket would first nave to get the approved number of names on n
Bition and then, along with one or more other official candidates, enthe primary election where lhe nominees for the general election
are chosen.
The theory is good in that it brings tne selection at candidates in a
more direct contact with the public. But the theory has not worked out
as planned The primary election where the actual candidate for the
general election are chosen is very lightly attended a turnout of
twenty percent of the eligible electors would probably be above the
usual average except when special situations prevail. Thus a small
minority of voters decide the outcome wh'ch may or may not be in line
with majority public opinion
In large communities, especially in Detroit, the ease with which
primary candidal« can be nominated produces long official lists that
are confusing, and meaningless Thus, in the primary election proper,
the victorious candidate may have received only a small portion of the
total voteis^’-adly
f use voting in the general
etertwn will have to mark ballots for a candidate who may be prac­
tically an unknown and who was probably no! the first or even second
choice of a majority of the people ta hte area

1.
CROP PRODUCTION
A. Alfalfa Production
There is considerable interest
in Spring seeding of alfalfa. This
practice should result in two. and
possibly three cuttings in the
seeding year, provided proper
management is followed.
Factors to consider for alfalfa
seeded alone in the Spring are:
1. Seed early—as soon as a
suitable
seedbed
can
be
prepared
2 Chemical weed control is a
a. Eptam at 3 quarts per acre

incorporated before planting
the recommended herbicide
b. Grau can ixX be used in the
seeding when Eptam is used
3. A seeding rate of about 12 lbs
per acre would be recommended
4. Cost sharing tar establish­
ment of permanent vegetative
cover from A.S.C.S. might be
considered.
Alfalfa weevil wtll continue to
be a problem Early cutting can
mien eliminate the need for
spraying However, all fields can
not be cut early and in many
cases, it would be more beneficial
to spray before harvest. Field in­
spections and timing of spraying
are very important for effective
coitrol of this insect.
B.
Corn Production
The extra cost of inputs fa
corn production makes execution
of management practices very
important Some of these con­
siderations are as follows
1. Good yielding early hybrids
generally yield as much or more
than late hybrids in most areas
and can reduce drying cost.
2. Fertilizer is most efficiently
utilized by corn when banded in a
row near the seed When banded 2
inches to the side and 2 inches
below the seed, all the phosphate,
up to totrjxMmds an acre of potash
and 60 pounds an acre of nitrogen
can be applied.
3. Be sure io consider nitrogen
supplied by plowing down a
legume or manure
4 Know your weed problem
and. select herbicides ac­
cordingly
5 When using pre-emergence
herbicides, keep up on the
spraying: don't wait to spray af­
ter all com is planted
6. Effectiveness of pre­
emergence is dependent on rain­
fall within 7-10 days after ap­
plication. If rain does not occur

Charlton Park—Could Be Focal Point
Charlton Park should be a focal point for clubs, service
organisations and even individuals tht oughout the county inter rated in
making worthwhile contributions of time and effort In assisting a
project that cannot be duplicated anywhere else in Michigan Oddly
enough, schools in neighboring counties have been more alert to take
advantage of the educational opportunities already available at the
Park than have schools light here in our own Barry County com­
munilies However, thia is not too surprising since it follows along with
the old adage that "a prophet is without honor in his own com
munity"—and that we are all prone to overlook values immediately at

With a century old Carriage House, a Blacksmith Shop, a Church
and Stagecoach tavern already in place and a One-Room Rural
School on new foundations and awaiting restoration, Chariton Park
Village is taking form. One can now see tne possibilities that lie ahead.

Bristol Inn Follies—Yearly Affair
Memories of the tremendous'* successful Hastings Centennial
celebration linger on and many have hoped that we could find another
project that might attract the interest and cooperation of the entire
community.
As a "starter” why not make the Bristol Inn Follies a yearly af­
fair’ There is evidently a world of talent here that c-uld be used for ar
endless senes of yearly variety shows Such a project could be spun
sored by a committee drawn from the various service clubs and
fraternal organizations that are ever on the lookout for useful local ac­
tivities In this manner a broad cross section of Hastings could be
brought together in a project of mutual concern and interest Just as
was done during the Centennial Celebration.
Vicksburg, a community near Kalamazoo, less than half of the
stir of Hastings, has gained cons.dc-ably more than local fame, hy
presenting each year an old fashioned minstrel show by winch means
many thousands of dollars have been raised tor community en­
terprises Although the Vicksburg Rotery Club is the official sponsor
of the show, talent for the show and the design and creation of
costumes and scenery is drawn from the entire Vicxsburg area
Since Hastings is considerably larger than Vicksburg and has
many active service organizations and fraternal groups, it would
probably be better for ua to proceed on a Joint venture basis that would
bring together all elements of the community Talent is not

Squeeze monej^
not people.
Now that lhe energy crisis has put the squeeze on.
it's important we squeeze the most out of every
dollar. And the way to do It with economy cars
is Plymouth Ouster For example. Duster not only
gives you room for ono more person than
Mustang II, It gives you more comfort and a bigger
trunk. Check lhe box below. *
•

Duster squeezes more gas for your dollar.

In recent U.S Auto Club tests, for city driving.
Duster's Slant 6 engine got better mileage than
even Mustang's 4-cytinder engine!
All of which |ust goes to prove, when it comes
.to economy cars. Duster's the one that squeezes
the money . . not lhe people.

Duster squeezes
your dollar more.
Not only is Duster a

The farm tour began in the
milking parlor where everyone
learned tost how we get that milk
we drink Somehow I think we
were much more eager lo see the
cows than they were to see us*
Next, every one had a chance to
see 7.500 chickens vho have Just
begun their careen as layers
The teacher profited here with a
dozen "double yofkers" for her
breakfast table
To complete an already
pleasant day. everyone boarded
wagons for a haynoe back to lhe
"sugar shanty " After walking a
log across the creek everyone
was rewarded with the sweet
smell and taste of baling sap
We then all pulled up a stump
or a log to eat our sack lunches
accompanied by fresh milk, un
dec the trees Everything tastes
better outdoors*
The day was concluded with a
hayride back to the farm We all
want to thank tbe Calms family
for this enjoyable experience

Gun Lake Sewer Project
By Andrew Downing
Yankee Spring* Supervisor
No matter who you are or
where you live, water pollutkn
af’ect* you. because our Nation's
lakes and streams are polluted
Pollution is costly, ugly and in­
sidious
Pollution may jeopardize vour
farm, factory or source of
livelihood and threaten your
health and your neighbor's
health it increases the cost of
your drinking
water
but
decreases the value of your
P T^rroare four general types of
damage that can be caused by
pollution
Ecological Damage
Without adequate waste treat­
ment. the organic load tiring put
into the water soon exceeds the
amount of oxygen needed to
decompose it As the weste
decays it uses oxygen and given
off offensive odors
Economic Damage
Most people have not thought
completely through the im«ications of a lake residence
le desirability of a lake shore
home is based in part on its
natural setting On the other
hand, a home tn town is based on
other values, such as con­
venience to schools and jobs, and
public services that are available

only in urban communities.
We cannot hope to set down a
little piece of a city by a lake and
al the same time preserve its
natural environment that draws
us to the lake in lhe first place
Some time the level and type of
lake shore development will
come into direct conflict with lhe
needs and requirements for lake
preservation When this point is
reached sanitary sewers become
an absolute necessity or eIm­
properly values will decline
Many people, after careful
analysis may find that the price
of a lake residence measured tn
terms of lack of urban services
and the high cost of preserving
the natural lake from the impact
of overcrowding and human
habitation, is simply too high to
justify their living at the lake.
Aesthetic Damage
Changes m a lake brought
about by pollution make the lake
less pleasing to look at, swim in.
or use in some other ways
Damage To Health
Nitrates may be found in well*
because of contamination by
human sewage or runoff from
barnyards or highly fertilired
fields
The primary concern with
nitrates in drinking water is their
affect on infants Water polluted

by nitrates can cause a blood
disorder

the

fatal The chief symptom of
METHEMOGLOBINEMIA I* the

Other human diseases that
may be carried by polluted water

fectious hepatitis and amoebic
dysentery

who live by lakes must un­
derstand th? natural processes of

According to the County Plan

Zoning Board of Appeals who
would review and consider each
case using the
following
guidelines

Courthouse Deserves Proper Setting
la our opinion the Barry County Board of Commtasionm should
think twice and then once again before going ahead with plana to turn
more area* of Courthouse Square into parking lota
let's preserve what is left of the place a* an attractive setting for
the Courthouse, itself After all, it is a historic area and deserve* a brt
ter fate than being transformed mtn tarmac surface marked with line*
for parting stalls. A lovely old tree growing tn the only "breathing
space" left in the heart of the city is, to our way of thinking. just as im­
portant as a parked automobile. Once trees arc chopped down. a lawn
tom up and replaced with pavement, the damage is done for al! time
Undoubtedly the Commissioner* have the legal right to go ahead with
thu parking lot scheme if they wish and no one can slop them Cour
(house Square is county, not city, property and so comes under direct
control of the commissioners However, it might be best for all con­
cerned if the commissioners look the time to sound out public opinion
before taking action on the parking lot project It may be that a great
many people outside the Hastings Area “couldn't care less” about the
appearance of Courthouse Square but we believe that there are also
many others who do The Courthouse is the most important public
structure in our county and merits a proper setting In the long run. we
believe lha&gt; the preservation of Courthouse Square in its present (or
even improved&gt; condition is something that we. of the present, owe the
future It seems to us that relegating the Square for parking lot
space - merely because the real estate can be had at a low
price nothing but the cost of cutting trees, bulldozing the lawn,
paving the surface and painting the parking stall lines-is being, as
the old saying goes, "penny wise and pound foolish "

State Entitled To Information
Once again, State Senator Harry DeMaso's attempt to get tai
exampt organisations tn register with the State has been defeated by
last minute action the third time in three years
Actually, this is information which the Michigan government is
entitled to and should have All the Senator wants is a listing in 1*73
and 1974 of all property in the Slate which is now exempt from proper
ty taxation
In DeMaso's opinion, millions of dollars in taxes are being lost
each year became ineligible organizations claim and receive tax­
exempt status Thu. at course, is mere speculation, because.
Michigan never has tabulated property which is exempt However. the
consistent last minute defeat of the Senator's perfectly reasonable
proposal indicates that there may be a solid basis for his suspicions
According to DeMaso's estimate, as much as one-third of the land
and buildings ic the State are not on lax roles He suspects, with some
logic, that opposition to his measure means that somewhere there are
those who have something to hide and the right connections to bring
political pressure to bare. «n this light, a prop-r listing of tax-exempt
property is not only a reasonable step to take but an act of justice to
those who do not claim exempt iot«r
Whether or not tax exemptions are being given without
fcatifieatian a careful and complete listing of all tax exempt property
is essential in any slate taxation system where property is an im­
portant factor.
We hope that Sen DeMaso will not give up in his effort to get the
information be seeks and the Stale needs In denying the public this
basic information on tax exempt listing, the Senate is merely giving
fuel to those critics who believe that something of public interest and
concern is being concealed.

What with all the special investigative committees at work and the

the end is not in sight Possibly the fact is dawning on those who jum­

tremendously serious affair which if not properly conducted, can do
more serious harm to the Nation, itself, than harm to the individuals
involved As things now stand President Nixon has no alternative but

Is
there a
never failing
law
of good?
Is everything in life
fleeting and temporal—
or is it possible to be re­
leased from fear of loss
and from the confusing
"gray areas" which
cloud men's vision?
Many have found, as
you can. that the Chris­
tian concepts of un­
selfed love, patience,
meekness endure and
wherever they touch
men's lives their influ­
ence for good multiplies.
In the Christian world
there is a book which
clearly relates Chris­
tianity to scientific and
invariable laws. Il says
to us that God's law of
good is provable when
understood. This book
is Science and Health
with Key to the Scrip­
tures by Mary Baker
Eddy

"Don’t bother me now
...ftn busy!”
There w»i a time when the funeral director (or "undertaker" at lie was called
then) didr't need to be personable. Or specially trained. Or even polite.
About all he needed in those days were a hammer and some nails, along with
enough lumber to put together a "coffin."

Times have changed. and we’re glad they did. Today, if a funeral director doesn't
like people — if he doesn't really want to help and know bow to help others in
counties* ways — then he’s in the wrong profession.

Nearly every department has

require a space of about 100 x 70

Healing of Isobel Elliott
The Bert Elliott Family lived
on Wood School Hoad a few rods
north at our home in Irving Twp
Their daughter. Isobel was 24
years old She had a very high
fever for J days My wife. Mina,
ami I went to their home, and I
asked Bert if I could pray for her
He ans wered. I wish you would.
I put my hands on her and felt
the heat of the fever through her
clothing She was breathing icry
heavily I made a short prayer
for God *o heal her. and went and
sat on the davenport In about 15
seconds Isobel slid off the bed and
came out laughing, and climbed
on the davenport betwresi Mina
and me Mrs Elliott exclaimed,
the Lord healed her I replied.
I’m just as surprised as you are:
to God be the glory. Isobel
married Mister Clare While Jr.

To another Faith by the same

Arthur T Kidder. R2 Hastings

To the Editor:
I feel it’s time for the people of
Hastings to be reminded what
Memorial Day is. It’s not a tune
for a 4th of July parade The true
meaning is to come out and honor
the dead veterans. that fought
and lost their livre for us
It’s a shame that all the

American Legion members were
out there, to honor their dead

that even showed respect for our
flag. Most people with any
amount of brains sh.-ild know
when our flag passes by they’re
suppose to stand and give a salute
to the flag Maybe next year we
should carry a communist flag.

THE HASTINGS BANNER

“I want to make Delton
School District one of the best.”
Remember: This is OUR
School District... We can
make it one of the best!
My name Is Charles Larry Palmer, age 32. My wife.
Dianna, and our four children have been residents of
Pleasant Lake since 1968. I am past president of the
Pleasant Lake Association, a member of the International
Union of Operating Engineers (Local f324), and owner of
Palmer Distributing Co. recreational vehicle business.
In announcing my candidacy for a seat on the DeltonKellogg School Board. I bring with me a very real concern
for the children and the taxpayers of the Delton-Kellogg
School District. I do not claim to have a ••cure-all", but I
just feel that some realistic attitudes are in order, and
frankly feel that as a parent and a taxpayer 1 can offer a
common-sense approach to some of our problems.

Isn’t It About Time That We As Parents And Taxpayers:
1. Re-evaluate the total school curriculum, the teaching methods, the subject area
taught, and see that for the 100% tax dollar spent we get 100% educational value?
2. Apply proper instructions to school administration heads as to how OUR SCHOOL
will be operated?
3. Revise all bus operations, safety features of bus stops which include student safety
from home door to bus door? Our present Board of Education seems only concerned
with unloading as many as possible students In one stop, whether safe or a half­
mile from home.

4.

Revise the Drug Education Program ?

5.

Revise the Student Conduct Code, and then ENFORCE it?

6.

Apply more emphasis on band participation in competition and music educational
trips?

7.

Place more emphasis on sports programs for both boys and girls?

YOU, the residents of the Delton-Kellogg
School System can help by PHONING IN your
suggestions and recommendations, expressing
your attitude toward these ideas, and also of­
fering your own ideas.

I REQUEST THE OPPORTUNITY TO HOLD SMALL
OR GROUP DISCUSSIONS WITH YOU. PLEASE FEEL
FREE TO CALL AND SET UP A TIME AND PLACE
FOR ME TO MEET WITH YOUR GROUP.

Mr. Charlton Would He Pieaged
It is a source of regret that Irving Chariton cannot be here to sec
the progress being made in the Park and the displays ot the priceless
collection of early Michigan artifacts he bequeathed to Barry Count &gt;
Irving was a dreamer who saw far ahead of his time and had the
intelligence, foresight and determination to follow through on a
project that so many dismissed as impractical and queer
Time has proven that Mr . Charlton was right His efforts produced
a solid base for building a pioneer village and museum where the life
and times of early Michigan will be preserved for the enjoyment and
education of the present generation as well as for generations yet to
come
Under the quiet, capable direction of Frank Walsh, the collection
has been reai ranged and catalogued and the Village taken form with a
Church, the Bristol Inn, the Carpenter Cooper Shop. the Blacksmith
Shop and the One Room School already in place
This year. too. the new entrance to the Park has been opened which
provides a much more scenic approach and permits better use of the
grounds about the Museum We believe that Mr Chariton would be
very pleased with the use being made of his gift to tlie county- a gift
that is enroute to fulfilling his wish that the life and times of early
Michigan will live on into the future

Dairy Co-Operativea Working

for Farmera
Three dairy oops have been the objective of critical comments in
the media for still collecting money from members for political pur
poses If the media intends to go on a moral crusade directed al the
collection and disbursements of political action funds by organisations
to advance specific causes, it should widen its sights considerably It
this ts done, the result should be an inexhaustible source of black
headlines and ' we view with alarm' • comments
It so happens that one of the best funded groups of this type is the
Political Action Committee of the C I 0 whidi raises money through
voluntary contributions by members to be spent in the interest of the
labor movement The Media has never directed any of its heavy ver
bal blasts at labor for attempting to influence the trend of politics in
this manner In fact, it is more than probable that the Media has Its
own representatives working in Washington and in the several slate
capitals throughout the land to sidetrack the enactment of new laws
and regulations adverse to Media interests
The Dairy Cooperatives are working to promote the interest of
dairy farmers, an important element in our economy, just as the
Political Action Comma tee of the C I O is openly working .o benefit
its own membership So. if H ts wrong for the Dairymen to go the
Stical action route in advancing its own interests, it is wrong for the
O to act in a similar manner
If the Political Action Committee of the C I O. is correct in its
method of seeking political influence, then the Dairymen are equally
correct in following a similar pattern It is a silistion where both must
be equally right or both equally wrong
Political campaigns cost money and those who complain the
loudest about "dirty politics' are very probably the ones who con
tribute nothing to campaign costs or who take no part in the election of
gov ernment officials
We are much in favor of such campaign reforms as properly
audited lists of campaign expenditures by the various candidates, of­
fset by a similar audited list of income, including the names of con
tributors and the amounts of their contributions That would get
every Hung on the record where it rightfully belongs
Nevertheless we do not believe that the acceptance of a campaign
contribution by a candidate is. in itself, a sign uf guilt or vote trading

Senator Phil Hart. for example, has undoubtedly received over the
years considerable assistance from the C I O Yet. even thine whose
political views are very different from those of Mr Hart, must con­
cede that he is an honest individual of excellent character whose con­
victions arc not for sale The fact Dial he has accepted financial aid
from the CIO does not constitute proof that any deal or “private un­
derstanding" has been made.
Hubert Humphrey has never been one of our favorite political
figures Nevertheless, judged as a private citizen, we believe he is an
honest individual of deep convictions, who has. over the years, at­
tempted to serve hts country in an honorable manner Therefore, we
do not believe that his acceptance of lt.ouo 00 from the Dairy Farmer
Cooperative groups to apply against hts campaign debt of l*n is any
indication that be nas sold out to the dairy interests
Organizations and individuals in the United States shout j have the
right to contribute to the political parties of their choice and the fact
that these contributions are made and accepted is no sign of crooked­
ness or guilt
As mentioned above, a proper public auditing of campaign ex­
penses is needed as a protection to keep things out in the open and to
protect the individual candidates, 'hemseives. from advene in­
sinuations ar.d damaging "gossip" attacks
The only alternative to privately financed campaigns would be
nationally financed ones -and that would be one more big step along
the path of complete Federal domination
We do not agree that the political scene here is hopelessly corrupt
and wicked. In hurt, in view of the lack of public participation in cam­
paigns. especially the primary elections, we are probably even now Watergale and all enjoying a much better and cleaner brand of gover­
nment than we deserve
Americans who allow a Watergate to undermine their faith in the
American system government, are themselves, perhaps too unstable
to have an effective part in democratic rule
"The price of freedom", as the old saying goes, “is eternal vigilan
ce". and over the years, as a nation, we certainly have not been over
vigilant and far from eternally so
A basic system c.' government is forever with—no matter how
badly we mishandle it—a system that provides more personal
freedom, more opportunity to take part in public affairs and greater
protection to the rights of the individual than has been equalled by any
other major nation in the history of the world The system can work
well or in a faltering manner depending on the concern and interest we
take in our own affairs
Lets ask ourselves how much interest we have taken over the
years in the process of goi ernment Lets do this before we get too far
along the road of disillusionment-because it may be that the govern
menl. if it had a living personality, would also be very disillusioned by
the lack of interest shown by so many of the citizens it was designed to
protect

evidently intended for Peter
Rodino, submitted by a retired
Army officer He had a few
remarks that made partial sense
in the letter In dosing be states
that there are more important
things to lake care of than the
Watergate and related matters
He doesn't explain what he
means Evidently the possible
criminal acta of the President of
the United States and the mass
deception of the A mencan people
are not important A Presidential
candidate bribing and black
mailing himself into office is not
worthy of investigation. I sup

Is the runaway inflationary
spin I we are still in important*
Could the Russian wheat deal
possibly have greatly assisted in
this ridiculous economic con­
dition that has turned our countryup side down’ I wonder what the
current Pres'd-ntia! toy rule

will bring about in addition to

How will the American people

None of this is important.

How about some more secret

Nowadays, evetyone is concerned about
economy. And properly so. But if economy
was all you wanted in your transportation, you
might do better on a bus. Or even a motor­
cycle. The point is. why settle for only
economy when you can have a lot more.
You get it In a Plymouth Duster. Economy?

SERVICE

To the Friends of Tom Duits
After trying several times in a
period of two days to put
something down on paper that ex­
pressed the way our family feel*
about the last few days we find
we are not very good journalists
We also proved to the people
who welcomed us back from
California Sunday afternoon that
we are not too good at the "mike”
either So we will lust say a
million thanks to all who par­
ticipated in anyway to making
the trip passible
Tom gave it his best and was
running in the exact position he
wanted when the unfortunate in­
cident happened He ts now
resting well and ts looking for­
ward to getting back to hts
workouts as soon as possible
Thanks again for your out­
standing help It will always be
remembered

EDITORIAL
by R.M.C.

Commiuionen Make Hite Decision
In our opinion the Barry County Board of Commissioners made a
wise decision in purchasing The First Baptist Church and the property
to the east to provide more space for the Barry County Health Depart­
ment and Courthouse parking, thereby making it unnecessary to en­
croach further on what is left of the park area that has for more than a
century has surrounded the County Building
By this move, the Health Department that has been relegated to
unsatisfactory quarters away from the centra) part of the city will be
placed in a more serviceable situation and no further modifications
■ ill have to be made on the courthouse grounds
Of course the Commissioners had to weigh the long range con­
sequences of taking over more of the Courthouse lawn for parking
area against the cost of purchasing additional property across Court
Street before making a final decision - and the decision when made,
was the best one for all concerned
Personally, we would like to see Courthouse Square declared an
official park area as part of a long continuing policy to maintain the
ground* with possible impnncments. as they are at present
Barry is one of the very few counties tn Michigan that has retained
the usual block square park area in approximately the original con­
dition. save for the area on the South side in which trees, were felled
and the surface paved to provide parking The best way to provide
against future action to turn more of the lawn area into parking space
would be to declare the entu e square a park area

It was best for all concerned that the US. Supreme Court tn a
unanimous decision struck down a nght to reply law that had been
upheld in the Florida Court The law in question dealt with the right of
political candidate* to have equal space in a publication to reply to
persona! attacks that had lievn made against them The intent of the
law was good and in line with American concepts of fair play, but it
could have led to above* that would nullify any gains-just as the Alien
k Sedit ioq Laws did during the administration of John Adams
As the Supreme Court said, the Constitution guarantees freedom
of speech and docs not. by direct statement or implication, say that the
press must provide equal space to those who disagree with its ex
pressed opinions In fact, the Constitution merely states that
■Congress shall make no law x x x abridging the* freedom of speech
or of inc press It docs not say that the Press has to be fair, accurate
or just - merely that it shall ha ve the right of freedom of expression
Most reputable newspapers through Public Forum columns
provide space for a considerable amount of opinion often critical of the
paper, its writers and its policies However, there is nothing in the law
that compels a publication to follow this practice-it all depends on the
editor » sense of fair play
However, the fact that a "right to reply” law was passed in
Florida and was being considered in several other state legislature at
the time of the Supreme Court ruling, should suggest to the media
that a substantial segment of the public believes justly w mH. that
newspapers, in general, are not sufficiently objective impartial or ac­
curate in their statements and that the credibility of the press is often
questioned
Cndcr our Constitution, the government has no authority to
regulate or censor the contents of publications Therefore, the quality
of the news depends on the ethical standards and professional pride of
each individual editor and his staff and this, of course, can vary
greatly from publication to publication Professional associations
। such as the Michigan Press Association» can recommend standards
believed desirable but have no authority to force acceptance on in­
dividual members
Thus one of the most potent factors for a continuation of the free
press concept here in the L'nitcd SUtec. is the constant effort of the
publishers to work for an even greater degree of objectivity, fairness,
impartiality and truthfulness in the news they present to the public
if the Constitutional Amendment regarding a free press is ever
changed or altered, it will come from public demand and we doubt that
this demand will ever be made If people are even halfway convinced
that the media is making a reasonable effort to meet the tremendous
responsibility that the concept of a free press implies
It is especially important at this tune for the media to be a bit in­
trospective and determinethe new* trends and practices of the past
decade are indeed, best for all concerned

Home-Spun Algonquin Regatta is (treat
Maybe it would rale "low on the totem pole" in regard to finesse
txil from (he standpoint of spontaneity and enjoyment, the home-spun
Algonquin regatta rank* rather well up on the list Most of the floats
are obviously made of supplies immediately at hand with Imagination
and ingenuity taking the place of expensive materials and elaborate
construction*
The Regatta is. in fact, a community project with almost everyone
contributing including the panic lunch spread out on the tables at the
Y Camp for all who care to "gather round."
Personally, we liked the spontaneity and informality of the event
There didn't seem to be any acute seme of elation among the winners
or disappointment among those not awarded prize cups The main
thing was the tree and easy sense of enjoyment that everyone seemed
to have.
But. it dor* take thought and effort to prepare even a simple float
It was a fad of good fun for participants and spectators alike Cbm
inanity projects of this sort are very much worthwhile whether they
are elaborate or informal So. we hope that the Algonquin Lake Regat­
ta will be cunt inued from year to &gt; ear

Keep the Island a Wilderness’
The Y Camp at Algonquin is. in every sense of the word, a com
munity project in which the service clubs individuals and local in­
dustry have had a pari Although nothing ever reaches a stage of ah
solute perfection, tne camp as it stands, is well equipped to provide
useful camping programs to hundreds of youngsters every summer
Strict safet y and health standards are observed and yet no effort is
spared to give tne cam pen a sense of living close tn nature
Personally, we are glad that Bob King, the "Y" director, feels in­
clined to keep the lovely island property in its wilderness stage and not
'improve it tn any way Although not a large area, tt makes a won­
derful place for nature hikes and overnight camps in the wtld The
island is. in fact, one tiny area that remains much as it was in the era
of the monerr Michigan before the "march of civilization began We
hope that it may be kept in this state for the enjoyment of future
genrratiom of voungsters fl would be a shame, we believe to tame"
this bit of wilderness tn any manner Let's leave it as it is

(.ongratulations to Connie and Ken
Congratulations to Ken and Connie Laberteauv on the occasion of
their «th wedding Anniversary Bo*h have been wonderful citizens of
Itavtmgs and Ker. served many years as Director of Public Ser
vices-City Engineer it was called then Ken made a financial
sacrifice when he accepted the offer here because he was impressed
with the community and wanted to give his children the advantage of
growing up in a smalt city
Km was the sort of official who always made the best of limited
budgets to get the most done for the money As a trained engineer he
had a better conception of what was needed than the average citixcn
and yet was resigned to the fact that seldom, if ever, would enough
funds be available to meet all the requirements-but he "made do" in
an efficient manner with the money available He was an A l public
servant
So-a special salute to Ken and Connie on their «Xh An­
niversary and Hastings was fortunate that they decided to make this
city their home

To the Editor
Barry County is one of the
several nearby counties that do
have toning ordinances that are
(nod regarding mobile homes
ut now the planning commission
meets Julv 29th to discuss
libenzing these rules to allow
more mobile homes in the rural
or farm area* of this county
I. being quite interested in this
change, see no reason for it Its
not our fault that the sales of
mobile homes are off 25 to 50 per
cent I have contacted several

hundred person* that live in the
rural areas and the answer is the
same from almost everyone
They Don't want any change
Some stated that they had dif
ficulty tn mortgage money for
new construction Others slate
they will not build even though
they had planned to Some state
they will sell Other* may refine
to buv from Barry Couity mer
chants They are not to be
blamed I can't understand why
the plan-irg commission should
attempt to make Barry County
the dumping grounds for the
surrounding counties that do
have restrictions the same as our
county does
When it comes up for a vote of
the commission on this matter. I
hope they use good judgement
and look for the future of our
County's
betterment
and
welcome better home con
struction in the rural area And
mobile homes do have a adverse
effect on the valuation At least I
do hope that our II Coun­
ty Commissioners will give this
deep thought

I can add a few note* on the
history of the "Old Brown
School' in Caritnn Township
Fred Hecht and William Hecht
were my great grandfallar and
grandfather
I started my education in this
school tn 1*27 Lois Wickham was
the teacher and she taught
through the 1*32-33 season
Margaret Wilcox started the Fall
of 1*33 aad taught til in the Spring
of 1*34 when she resigned We
had Fern* Lathrop a* a sub
stitute for three days to finish a
week and Cnstal Brag don then
finished the term I dui not attend
this school aP of my first eight
yean but remember Lois
Wickham as one of the best
teachers and Mr lathroo and
Mrs Bragdon are still family

Yea. I and my children do have
many memories of this beginning

One final note is that my

rural one room school tn Ionia
County the last four years and
will teach in another near bv
rural school tn loma County next

gone The large schools of today

-Of the 30 accidents tnvohiag

"The efficiency of these two
lanes is greatly reduced by
motorists pulling into and
backing out of these angle

confusion and congestion caused
by angle parking, the large num­
ber of accidents caused by angle

Antique Engines Provide Thrills
Freeport. Mich

Although we are neither a mechanic nor an engine buff, we always
gm a special thnll in walking about the grounds at Charhan Fsrk
during the antique engine display 11 is not just the sight of aid-time
equipment tn motion but more especially the sounds that bring back
memories of long gone days at the Barry County Fair or at Uncle Vene
Ragers farm in Prairieville where these primitive engines were har
nested to take over chores formerly done by hand or by visiting steam
engines moved in for special jobs
Unde Vene at one time motMtad a one cylinder engine on a farm
wagon modified to take a belt drive In this manner nc produced a
mobile power plant that could be moved about from place to place at a
top spaed of about two miles an hour1 It was a crude mechanism by
today's standards but highly useful, nevertheless, an ingenious co.i
traptian in that it was made from materials and with tools im­
mediately available in the farm forge and workshop
My carbest memory of the Fair here was the clump thump
Iliump thump-thump, clump-thump-lhump-thump-thunipuf one cylin­
der engines in the farm machinery displays as you entered the groun
ds and when a half dozen or more were in operation at one time, as
was often the case, it made thoroughly interesting racket to the crowd
of kids who were milling about to get as close as possible to these
fascinating objects - but it was the memory of that "Mechanical
music" that lingers a unique sound never reproduced by any other
source - and it was a very exiting introduction to the fun and festivities
of the fair
It was these one-cylinder gas engines that drove the mobile steam
engine* out of business and gave way in turn to electric motors a* elec
Incity became available to farms through the extension al electric
power lines into rural areas
Ye*, the occasional sound of those one cylinder "cbuggers" recalls

Vigilance end Public Awareness

Necessary
One can't help but wonder at what goe* on in the minds of vandah
sack as those who set fire to a store of paper tending ia Central School
Anars. Fortunately, because the area was protected to sprinklers,
damage uas minor - hut for all the vandals knew, or probabl* cared,
the entire building might have been gutted.
It all seems so utterly inane and useless and the sura total of such
damages to public property throughout the year, is a tignlfleaul factor
ia keeping expenses and taxes high.
Fortunately the number of those engaged in this form of drstrnc
Uoo is few since it la almost impossible to give adequate protection at
al) limn. Unln* sandals are caught in the act. their ■•hnnees of ap­
prehension are slight - and the cost of providing twentv-four hour a das
guard service ia evety area that might be vandalised »«sM he
pruMbitive
Na owe yet has found the answer Io adequate prnlecthw agatest
vandalism. Fortunately most people we believe, are right minded
and. even though they may have real er imagined grounds for resent
mewt against some segment of the communitv in which lhev live,
never sloop so low as to resort to violence ar destine
tien Vigilance and the public support of police officer* are valuable
factors In protection against vandalism but in no way do lhev con
stitule the complete answer. Vandalism will probahlv alsvavs be with
us and the onh hope is that il can be kept from getting completely out
of hand.

'One Person, One Vote1—
Gerrymandering
Chief Justice Earl Warren was a great personality and a very
competent executive To the Eastern Liberal Establishment. the
Warren Court was one of the mas! excitmg in American history and
Mr Warren, himself the greatest since Chief Justice John Marshall
There are many, however, who do not agree with that eulogistic
summation A considerable number of lay and legal minds alike
believe that many of the S-4 decisions of his court threw a new mass of
technical road-blocks in the path of the law enforcement, softened the
meaning of "peaceful assembly ’' as mentioned in the Constitution and
stressed individual civil rights to the extent of weakening the
authority of the government to protect itself against civil disorders
The famous "One Person. One Vote" decision was well-intentioned
and humane but. impassible to implement - that is to keep the various,
political districts on terms of numeral equality As a matter of prac
iwal politics, the decision lias resulted in a greater degree of
"gerrymandering" than tn any era since the turn of the Century ■ that
is the carving up of voting districts for purpose od political advantage
Barry County, for example, as a result of the "One Person. One Vote"
decision has been carved into two Slate Representative, three State
Senatorial
and
two
U.S
Congressional
districts.
As a result all feeling in county unity has been lost and it is dif­
ficult to remember as things now stand just who your representatives
in government are Thus, under Warren Court decisions, the ef­
fectiveness of law enforcement was weakened at the very time it
needed strengthening and the political identity of local districts
discounted at a time when sense of political unity would have been a
valuable factor in bolstering the internal structure of the nation during
an era of extreme flux
In our opinion, Earl Warren was a sincere and dedicated in
dividual ■ a humanitarian who was often guided by his heart rather
than his head with a resulting damage to the legal structure His
greatest work liad to do with decisions bringing the Negro population
up into the mainstream of American life and for this, we believe, he
will be longest remembered Even those who find themselves ui camplrte disagreement with many of his key decision*, can honor the
memory of a true American, who did the very best according to his
concepts of duty to serve the country he admired and loved, faithful)v
and well

Ta the Editor:
I would tike to write what the
Bible says about the two works of
Grace tfc'e're born into this world
without sin. but as we grow, and
aIo know right from wrong.
sin enters in "Therefore to
him that knoweth to do good, and
doeth it not U is sin" James 4,17.
There is a cure for sin Christ
died on the cross for a complete
sacrifice for sun There is no
remission for sins, without the
sheading of blood Heb 9.72. Heb
It. « tells us how to come to God
and ask forgiveness of our sins
Then God makes us new
creatures ia Christ Jesu* Old
things pass away, behold all
things become new 2 Chor 5,17.
This is the first work of Grace,
called Justification Whosoever
is burn of God doth not commit
Sin 1 John 2.9.
The second work of Grace is
Sanctification Sanctify means,
to cleanse, punfy. or make holy
(Sanctification, holiness, and
perfection &gt; are terms referring
to the same experience God calls
al) believers to Sanctification
For this is the will of God even
your Santtficalion. 1 Thess 43
Other scriptures Be ye holy; for 1
am holy 1 Peter 1. 16 Follow
peace with all men. and holiness
without which no man shall see
the Lord Heb 12, 14 Be ye per
feet even as your Father which is
in heaven is perfect Matt 5. 48
Christ sanctifies the people with
h» own blood Heb 13.12 And the
blood of Christ ckeanseth us from
all sin i John 1.7
We inherited Adam's sin. God
forgives us of our sin. but Adam's
is our carnal nature. God can't
forgive us of that because we are
not to blame for it. but He can
cleanse us. by seeking for Sanc­
tification as the second work of
Grace Romans 1;1.7 A says, for
to be carnally minded ts death,
but to be spiritually minded is
life and peace Because the car­
nal mind is enmity against God:
for it ts not subject to the law of
God. neither can tn So then they
that are in the flesh cannot phase
God That* where sanctification
cleanses us from al! sin and
makes us pure You don't have to
wait till death to be sanctified as
some people think Its for us now.
so we wifi be ready to meet the
Lord when he comes t These S.
23 Says and the very God of
peace santify you wholly, and I
pray God your whole spirit and
soul and body, be preserved
blameless unto the coming of our
Lord Jesus Christ

MSU dairy science professor
J W Thomas about proper and

He skid that some of the claims
presently on the market include
.greener,
more
palatable
material, greater beef and milk
production gain, greater fer­
mentation. etc Usually these
companies will have testimonials
about the success of their product
but do not have sound research
data to back their claim
It is hard to prove or disprove
that their additive works since
they are reluctant to submit to
experimental
research

However, some farmers have
seen a rise in lhe Quality of their
haylage because the companies
have coupled their product
selling with sound management
programs
Some
of
lhese
recom­
mendations include lhe correct

packing and good feed formula
What it amounts to is that the
farmer is buying management
practices rather than a good
silage preservative This type of
information has been available

to contact the extension offices
for available free programs
There are experiments being
conducted at MSU that may help

Thomas concludes
He has experimented with

Thursday. July 25. 1974

EDITORIAL
by R.M.C.

'Mr. Aviation' Taken Halloon Ride
You would be surprised. Jim Jensen to learn how many people
inquired. -Who was that expert airplane pilot who won the Freeport
Balloon ride and wrote such an interesting account of his ex­
perience?"
The individual, as you may have guessed from the above was none
other than 'Mr Aviation" of Hastings, Jim Jensen, whose byline was
Inadvertently omitted from his fascinating story on Page It of the
Banner issue of July it However. Jim. the unusual number of
toquines received, indicated that the story was widely read and ap
precisted and at least a few. quite naturally, were irate ta for failing
to divulge t he name of the author
It was indeed unusual to have a balloon ride described through the
eye* of a veteran aviator with a background of piloting prop planes
and )ets Jim had high words of praise for the skill and know-how of
Doug Mills of Alto, owner and pilot of the balloon and seemed to get a
renl thrill out of duplicating In slow motion similar maneuvers
(ground straffing, for example) that he had experienced in high speed
plane*
Jim is one of the most experienced aviators in this area and is still
an active member of the Air Force Reserve He managed the local
Airpark over a period of years and did an excellent job under con
ditwms that then prevailed
So-sorry. Jim. we missed the byline and hope these paragraphs
aril) make up. at least in part, for the deficiency

Old Fairs Featured Halloon Ascensions
Old-time fairs were never complete without a balloon ascen­
sion—a big. black bag of hot air carrying a parachute with a daring
young man suspended on a trapeze like contraption below Then when
at the proper height but still within view of the fairground crowd, the
parachutist cut loose and began his descent, the sight of which, drew
Sntaneous outbursts of oo-h's and a-a-h's from the spectators
an while the big bag. gradually turned upside down, spewing a trail
of dark smoke as it began its own return to terra firma So far as we
know, neither parachutist nor balloon were ever damaged in the
descent Sometimes they landed close together, sometimes a mile or
more apart, depending on the unseen currents of air It was a
memorable spectacle capable of sending cold chills up and down the
spines of youngsters (and even adults) who had yet to see their first
airplane
We well remember the first attempt made here to bring an air­
plane to the fair and thus go modern and do away with the passe
balloon We forget the exact year, but it was just after Americans en
try into World War I—The war to save the world for democracy'
Brought in by truck for assembly at the fair, the dismantled plane was
a very disappointing sight-small, flimsy and powered with a littled
four cylinder engine Some doubted that it could hold together long
enough to get off the ground However, it was supposed to take off
from the racetrack, fly past the grandstand and cirde the fair before
landing in a nearby field. The parts of this contraption were stacked
near the Judge'* Stand and guarded night and day by the Hastings
Home Guard complete in their MM khaki uniforms and SpanishAmerican War rifles!
fortunately nothing had to be put to test, since tne weather during
Fair Week was mostly rain and showers with only brief intervals of
sunshine But we have often thought-what might have happened if
that frail little crate had tned to take off and fly before a crowded
grandstand and with people lining the fences on either side of the
track Probably the typically foul Barry County Fair weather actually
averted a tragedy of severe proportion*
It wasn't an airplane that caught, the collective eye of spectators
at the Fair just ended, however, nut another balloon! In fact, it had
large areas of the city agog with interest as it slowly rose and drifted
about al different heights on such slight air currents as existed on a
practically windless afternoon
This new brted of balloon, however, is a far cry from the sooty,
black bags of former years and makes a truriy spectacv'ar light with
its segments of brilliant, contrasting colors Tne pilots, too. have a sur
posing amount of control over their buoyant craft A propane burner
provides added lift when needed and a valve lets out air for descent
Thus a skillful operator can guide his craft up or down at will to take
advantage of air currents
Although once an object of interest because of its novelty, an air
plane firing overhead today draws no more attention than a passing

As badly as the parched area screamed for rain as
The Banner was getting it together Monday evening,
merchant and consumer alike are hopeful that the
Weatherman cooperates and works in his overdue
precipitation either ahead or after Hastings big two-day
sidewalk sale.
That would be Friday and Saturday, July 26-27 when
local streets will be overflowing with bargains and
savings, just in time for consumers to get in a good
whack at inflation that oughta give everyone a needed
mid-summer lift.
So come on down and take a look. There's always
something for every shopper, from 5 to 95, who is
looking for a bargain in Hastings. Chances are good
there will be an abundance of values, and yo«&gt; can find
out where the best ones are by checking ove» the ad­
vertisements on the following pages.

Aquinas Students Sift Sands
Searching for Indian Artifacts
The work is hot, dirty and hard
and the rewards are small,
perhaps a broken chip of stone or
a bit of charcoal, but every
shovelful of dirt scooped up by ■
students of archeological field
techniques
from
Aquinas
College. Grand Rapids, holds
hope of a significant find
The stodents, under the dtrection of Dr. Russell E. Lewis,
auhled by a graduate student
Charles Schmidt of Ft. Collins,
Colo., are spending 2 days a week
at Chariton Park. excavating and
investigating for evidence of In­
dian occupancy.
Dr. Lewis, a graduate of
Michigan State University, said
the Charlton Park site was
chosen because it seemed a likely

spot to find Indian artifacts It is
believed the park is located on
ground known tn the past as In­
dian landing, a gathering place
and council ground for tribes in
the area
Every shovel full of dirt Is sif­
ted and the particle* that do not
go through the seive are carefully
examined
Dr lewis says the basic idea is
to give students some experience
in the field and to find likely spots
to further Investigate in the
future. Though the students have
found evidence of Indian camps
in the area, including a stone
projectile point and chips of stone
tools. Lewis said the operation
this summer is exploratory and
no real decisions are expected

EDITORIAL
by R.M.C.
Important Primary Election Tuesday
Next Tuesday. Aug. ft. there will be held an important Primary
Election in which candidate, for offices at local, state and national
levels will be selected for the final vote at tbe General Election in
November.
Among the local offices will be tbe selection of delegates to the
County Democratic and Republican Conventions.
Although dismissed as trivial by many people, the selection of the
delegates Is of real significance, since this is the "grass roots"
leveT-the place where a community with proper representation, can
make itself heard at the State Convention, and. if the delegates so
choose, are in a position to register and pass on views and opinions
representing the focal attitude to representatives in the Federal gover­
nment.
Thus tbe township trustees, the county commissioners and the
members of the Democratic and Republican County Conventions are
the basic elements of the "grass roots" on which our entire
democratic government is based?
Although there is usually more or less spirited contests for town­
ship and county offices, the selection of candidates for the county
political conventions is usually not given the emphasis that the office
Herewith is a list of tbe offices for which candidates will be selec­
ted at tbe coming Primary: Governor. Representative in Congress,
Stale Senator. State Representative. County Drain Commissioner.
County Commissioner, Township Supervisor. Township Clerk, Town­
ship Treasurer, Township Trustee and Township Constable.
Candidates for both parties will be luted under the proper Party
Heading in the machine voting booths and on the printed ballots in
booths not equipped with voting machines It is necessary to keep in
mind that in a primary you cannot split your tickets—split ballots
must.bylaw.be thrown out and not counted
Probablv the most insteresting race in tbe Primary will be the
selection of the Democratic nominee of Governor from the three can­
didates running—Sander M. Levin. James E. Wells and Jerome P
Cavanagh. Apparently the real contest will be between Levin and
Cavanagh, botnof whom are known throughout the Slate from cam­
paigns of prior years William G. Milliken running for the guber­
natorial election on the Republican ticket will be unopposed in tbe
Primary.
_
.
The main Republican race, so far as Barry County is concerned,
will be between Wayne B. Sackett, running for re-nomination as State
Representative of the 55th District and Donald H. Gilmer
Because of tbe manner in which Barry County has been
gerry mandered into splinter districts for legislative and congressional
offices, it is impossible to discuss them here in detail.
A good general rule to follow is—if your present officers have
given satisfactory service, then vote to give them a chance at another
term The mere fact that an office holder is being opposed for re
election is no proof, in itself, that he has not given satisfactory service
and should be replaced.
In addition to the regular party ballots, there will be a non­
partisan ballot to select candidates for two new post* on the 3rd
District Court of Appeals. Twelve candidates will be on the ballot and
the four getting the highest vote in the district will compete for the two
posts at the General Election in November—the top vote-getter win­
ning a ten-year term and the second highest an eight year term. In ad­
dition. two Third District Judges, Thoma* M. Burns. Saginaw and
Glenn S Allen. Lansing, present incumbents, are running unopposed
for six year terms so their names will not appear on the primary
ballot.
Of the twelve candidates, our own choice will be made between
Iz» E Maki. St Johns. Allan C Miller. East Tawaa and Rooert
Richardson. Saginaw.
Any twe, of these three, we feel certain, have the qualifications of
character and experience, to fulfill the duties of this important judicial
office. This is not intended as any reflection on the other nine, whose
qualification may also be excellent it is just that we do have
knowledge of the three mentioned above
."io—remember to cast your ballot this coming Tuesday. Aug. 6
Poll* will be open from 7:00 a m. to 8:00 p m. thus giving an ample
time spread to suit the convenience of everyone. This is a civic duty in
which everyone should take part.

Impeachment is 'Nightmarish Thing’
Now as the matter nears a show-down, many are beginning to
realize what a nightmarish thing impeachment really is-and to
question whether or not the proposed remedy (impeachment l will not
be infinitely worse than the disease, itself, even granting all of the in­
nuendos and inference* made against the Presidrit were true-which
we do not. The process of impeachment, it is dear, is largely to be
fought on political lines and Because of its nature the President will
be denied the same "due process" open to every American citizen.
The House can either confirm or deny the recommendation of its
special Judiciary Committee. If confirmed, the trial will be conducted
by the Senate where politics is certain to be a factor. From the Senate
decision, the President has no right of appeal One must remember
that the impeachment provision was written into the Constitution at a
time well before political parties became a divisive factor in
American government-otherwise this most important of trials might
have been left in the judicial branch of government where it rightfully

bCl°SoSfar the President has been tried, judged and convicted in the
media, aided and abetted by public opinion polls, to such an extent that
it would probably be difficult for him to get a fair and impartial trial
anywhere in America If the President is impeached by the Senate the
repercussion* will jolt the Nation and be felt far and wide throughout
the world doing grievous damage to our stature abroad. Many more
complications are involved than a mere change from one admin&amp;ratfon to another.
However, if the President is not finally convicted, the media itself
will be on the "hot seal" and that is why they are raising tbe clamorto
influence the people back home tc demand impeachment action The
"crime” of Watergate is not merely "Watergate,” but rather the man­
ner in which it has been sensationally exploited in the media and
dragged on endlessly and at tremendous cost in the several in­
vestigative bodies all duplicating each other's work.
The ousting of a President, unless outright treasonable crimes can
be proved—which so far have not been-will not solve any of our
current troubles but rather will add to them

Dear Editor:
How du you ,-uppuae peuple en­

Cameron McIntyre
To the Editor:
On behalf of the Association's
Board of Directors. I have again
been asked to thank lhe Banner in
contributing to the success of our
July Regatta. The Banner's ar­
ticle and pictures and the com­
ment m the July H issue were
outstanding and lhe cause of our
receiving numerous favorable
comments.
Sincerely.
Donald L. Montgomery.
President

To the Editor:
I thank Judy Moskalik for her
fine well defined letter There are
many of us who have the same
idea. We feel that this spraying of
our roadsides is outright distrac­
tion.
Beside those thing* she has
mentioned, this spraying has
drifted and killed shrubs and
plants in our yards and gardens

Seemingly the persons han­
dling those hoses could care less
of the distraction they are in­
flicting
Certainly every reader of the
Hastings Banner should read and
re read Judy Moskalik's very fine
letter in July 2S edition
Sincerely.
Mrs Hubert Pufpaff
To the Editor” ~
After having read in the Ban­
ner about the Slate Police Poat in
Barry County and having worked
for it myself, am very happy that
we will have it. But I do not think
that the credit ha* gone where It
belongs When you speak of
citizen* with no names there is
one name that should be in­
cluded. Mrs. Ethel Boze
On Feb 37. 1973. Mrs Ethel
Boze sent a letter to the Barry
County Board of Commissioners
with several copies of letters
which she had written and sent to
our State Representatives and
Senators asking for our help to
get the Post. We as a board did
send a Resolution to our Govcr
nor and Col. John Plants, and
also
State
Senators
and
Representatives.
After getting interested myself
and with the urging of Mrs Ethel
Boze. we decided to circulate
petitions, county wide. She spoke
to the Delton Lions Club on Mar­
ch 22. 1973 and asked for their
support Then the Delton Clum­
ber of Commerce was formed
and gave their full support. To
sum the whole thing up. as a
Community Service. Mrs Boze
has gone above and beyond the
call of duty, and it's my feeling
that Mr* Ethel Boze should have
credit for the establishment of
this Post.
Sincerely.

To the Editor:
We would like to congratulate
Budweiser (South End) softball
team on their victory in tbe tour­
naments on July 19 and July 20
This tournament was the
deciding factor in which team
would represent Hastings in the
District Tournaments in Olivet on
August 3. Budweiser, undefeated
in lhe tournaments, took the
championship over Hastings
Reinforced Plastics, playing two
games scoring 5-&lt; (10 innings)
and 12-0 (5 innings).
However, as being Budweiser
softball fans from Hastings, we
were very disappointed that this
tournament and the winning
team (Budweiser) received no
publicity.
In the invitational tournaments
on July 5 and July 8. Reinforced
Plastics took the tournament
over South End (Budweiser) at
scores of 12-5 (Reinforced
Plastics), KM) (South End), and
15-12 (Reinforced Plastics).
There were pictures and write­
ups of Reinforced Plastics Soft­
ball Team Could tbe lack of
publicity be due to lhe fact that
Budweiser (South End) is a
Nashville Softball Team and
Reinforced Plastics comes from
Hastings?
In spite of the absence of
publicity at this very decisive
tournament, we would like to
congratulate Budweiser on their
skilled playing and outstanding
sportsmanship We know you will
get the publicity and support that
you deserve in the district tour­
naments in Olivet.
Congratulations.

To the Editor:
At present the average
American own* an automobile.
But how much longer will this be
true? Price* keep jumping by
astronomical bounds on new
automobiles.
I predict that if a clamp is not
put on tbe automobile makers,
lhe average American will no
longer be able to afford a car.
Now you might say that the auto
companies need to make a fair
profit. I aay they are making an
outrageous profit at the public's
expense. All you have to do is look
at their profits reported in lhe
papers or at their financial
statements.

How many legislators that vole
on economic issues have stock in
the auto companies and interests
in other large concerns?
No wonder the public is so fed
up with governing bodies and
their inability to control anything
these days. Do something Mr

In the Aug. 6th Primary you are being asked if
you want to maintain the present Hope and
Barry townships police and If you will give 2
mills for four years. At present we have this
police department and it is costing Hope Town­
ship S7000.00 a year without any millage. Two
mills in Hope Township will raise about
122.000.0G a year. At this rate the township board
would have 129.000.00 a year to pay for what has
been costing Hope Township 17000.00. What
would all this extra money be used for?
Now that Barry Co. is going to get a Slate
Police Post, do we really need the 2 mills?
I am running for the nomination to the
Republican Partv for the office of Hope Town­
ship Clerk. If elected I will do the best job that I
possibly can and when voting on issues con­
cerning your tax dollars I will vole as if the
money is coming out of my own pocket!
Please vote Aug. Sth. IM4. as there in more at

Interpreting the Fertilizer
Crunch: Start Thinking 1975
Ho* do you look at the fertilizer
picture today’ If you planned
ahead you had relatively minor
problems Or . did you get trap­
ped’ If you were trapped, you
weren't the only one the
following doesn t take any of the
pressures off. but maybe it will
allow you to vie* the shirt age tn
a different light
Fertilizer—A year ago It
ranked as low a* manure in tbe
vocabulary and thinking of many
people In 1974 it ranks with food,
fuel and energy in importance
US farmers have gained a
worldwide status because of it
Other US farmers are kauag
status because of a lack of it Wall
Street is drooling over tt The
world is a more peaceful piece in
1974 because of it But. millions of
people in India and other coun
tnes will cbe nest year if they
don't get it. because today food is
equaled to fertilizer The world
literally depends upon it ter sur­
vival and some of our cousins
turn up tbeir noses when they
hear the word fertiliier
Amazing, isn't it
The Fertiliser Crunch-The
End Is Not In Sight-lt is only
August, but you should start plan­
ning for 1975 Take the sod sam
pies now Get them tested Order
and accept delivery of fertiliser,
and get that lime mtn the field
Michigan farmers depend upon
many sources for fertilizer Most
sources are located outside of the
state of Michigan Some are even
outside of the country Because of
this Michigan farmers are u&gt;terested in the world wide p»c
ture
In the May 13 issue of Chemical
and Engineering Mews is an ar­
ticle on the news of Dr Raymond
Ewell who believe* that tbe
world fertilizer shortage may
continue indefinitely for several
reasons, including whether new
money will be available tar fer­
tilizer plant expansion, lhe
relatively small pool of engineers
qualified to design and build

cent batow the 1973 lamb crop and

Court Settles Cross District Musing Issue
Although the I' S Supreme Court decision in the Detroit school
busing fight does not necessanly resolve the issue of public school
desegregation*, it does settle the question of cross distnet busing In
this the Court ruled that Federal Courts may not impose multidistnct
desegregation plan* where there is no finding that all the school
districts involved lack integrated school systems
The busing issue was brought to a heed two year* agn when the
late U S District Court Judge Stephen Roth ordered a droegratton
plan embracing not only Detroit but school districts in its suburbs as
well—M district* in all This involved a massive busing plan acmes

Atty Gen Frank Kelley, who along with Gov Milliken filed a

honesty and Moral Fiber Important
Personally we admire Sen Philip A. Hart for turning down a
reporter* invitation to divulge detail* of his income-tas payments In
the w ake of Watergate, many public personages have gone overboard
under prodding by maturing reporters to divulge details of their per­
sonal finances a* proof of freedom from conflicting interests Although
such intentions are good, the application of media pressure to compel
the divulging of such information i* wrong—unless the old American
concept of right of privacy ha* suddenly become passe
Public officials are. in private, just ordinary individuals who
through ambition of some quirk of fate have been thrust into the
limelight, thereby losing considerable of the personal privacy that one
must give up on assuming office
It isn't the financial statu* of pn office holder that is of supreme
importance- but rather his honesty and moral fiber If the ownership
of bonds or share* of stock in corporations is proof per se of dishonesty
then there are million* of "wicked" individual* in our dear old USA.
who have always held the "warped" point of view that savings and in­
vestments are part of the American way of life in the eternal struggle
for self support and self reliance
So. unless right of privacy in purely personal affairs is now con­
sidered to be outmoded, let's let our public officials have at least a
modicum of protection from tbc ever present eye of the prying repnr

nor the question* too penetrating- but lets respect the right of privacy

Many Michigan taxpayers

Any taxpayer who has not yet

visit his local IRS office as soon
as possible. R L Plate, distnct

The most common reason for
an undehvervd check aeemitnc

to Plate, is that Hie taxpayer has

In cases where the taxpayer
suspects his check may have
been lost or stolen. Plate urged
the person Io get in touch with his

EDITORIAL
by R.M.C.

Climatic Events Prove U.S. Stability
Climactic events of the past week, prove once again the resilience
and stability of the U.S democratic system One administration ended
and another assumed power with a smoothness and degree of ac
ceptance by the American public that was reassuring for the years
ahead regardless of turmoil on the borne front or unrest tn the world at
large All of thus constitutes a soothing balm to a Nation that has been
severely torn by the traumatic impact of the Watergate affair

Gerald R. Ford ‘Impressive’
Gerald R. Ford, the first Michigan cittsen Io serve as President of
the United States, was impressive as he took the oath of office His
remarks were memorable by their directness, sincerity and obvious
lack of oratorical flourishes The Nation, we believe, is ready for and
will be appreciative of that form of communication from its top leader
President Ford, we believe, has a good chance to draw this badly
split Nation together again, if the pangs of Watergate and Im­
peachment are not kept alive There is plenty on the bomefronl to
demand our full intention without continuing to brood and agonize over
an issue that is now in the hands of the courts and no longer merits sen
taliona) treatment day in and day out by the media From now on in.
lef's M the courts take over • and the new government, govern Unless
retaliation and continued vindictiveness toward those who have
already paid severe personal penalties for their actions has a con
tinned high priority in the American mind. President Ford will, in­
deed. have a very good chance of turning the course of government
and die nation Into constructive channels, once again
Our new president is not a "miracle man" nor does he make the
slightest pretense of bring one He has no magic formula, for example
to quickly end rising Inflation which is mostly a combination of fear,
greed and the law of supply and demand The first two are purely
human traits and the third a law that runs its course despite attempts
by governments to check its unwavering course with such things as
price controb a project so complicated that no government in the
history of the w or Id has ever enacted a satisfactory system
President Ford has during his yean in Congress, exhibited an
unusual capacity for working on a basis of mutual respect with groups
whose varying convictions encompassed a wide range on the political
spectrum. This he has done without compromising his own beliefs, the
while retaining the friendship and respect of those whose viewpoints
are widely divergent from his own
During all his public life, he was won a reputation for the same
sort of rugged honesty that wgs the hallmark of another noted oc
cupant of the White House ■ Abraham Lincoln Right now. in view of
the American mood, rugged honesty combined with straightforward
talk are commodates whose worth, tn terms of influence for the good
of all, can never be overvalued.
President Ford's task during the months ah-ad will be very dif­
ficult even though he assumes office with promises of co-operation and
the prospects cf an extended "honeymoon" period with both Congress

stones, and I believe, would feel itself withering on the me if an ex
tended period of universal goodwill did. by any chance, ever get un­
derway
President Ford's conservatism in fiscal matters and concepts of a
militantly strong America does not set well with the so-called "Liberal
Eastern Establishment" and the bulk of the Washington correspon
dents and the policy makers of the leading TV chains reflect, to a large
extent, the same point of view So. no matter how well President Ford
gets along with the Press, hi* views are likely to receive some rough
However, if the President can continue to speak to the people tn
the same plain, sincere language, that he did on assuming office, then
his words may come through more loudly and clearly to the public
than do those of the press or TV
As his new administration gets underway, however. President
Ford has the blessing, the goodwill and the prayers of the great
majority of the American people

Concealment Wit ‘Coup-De-Grtce’
Many staunch supporters of the now Ex President. Richard M
Nixon received a sharp jolt on learning that he knew detail of the
Watergate break-in. weeks before the date given in his initial
statements Whatever the decision for concealing this information,
may have been, it was the wrong one. It was. in fact the coup-de-grace
to his already embattled position.
Until the facts prove otherwise, we hold to the belief that Mr
Nixon had no part in planning the Watergate break-in or had no
knowledge at first of the involvement of his own staff in any office
lesser than the Presidency, action to protect close associates, might be
tolerated - but the White House, representing as it does, the seat of
American executive authority must ever remain above suspicion
Granted, too. that there were damaging Inside leaks of confidential
material from the Pentagon, the State Department and even the White
House, formation of the Plumbers Unit was not a wise move •
especially, since the President obviously exercised so little direct
supervision over its actions
Watergate was so tragic because it was so utterly needless and
stupid As things turned out. Mr Nixon would have won even if he had
no campaign at all Sen George McGovern put a foot in his mouth
every time be arose to discuss policy. As a matter of fact be probably
did mure to re-elect Nixon, than anyone on the Presidential Staff
A second Nixon error of mayor proportions was to bypass the
Republican National Committee in favor of a committee to Elect the
President, the operational authority of which, was turned over to a few
of his close and trusted friends who. despite hugh funds taken in. per­
formed in the words of then Rep Ford, like a bunch of bungling
amateurs The political lesson of the 1972 campaign ts that a presiden
tial candidate seeking electian or reelection must work through the
National Committee and must give personal atienticn as to how and
from whom money is being raised
However, the Nixon Administration was not all bad and some
phases of it - foreign affair*, for example—were truly great. In fact,
except for the Nixon policies there might be confrontations of alar
mine proportions right now in several areas of the world.
Some Nixon critics give all the credit In foreign affairs to Henry
Ki^singer However, if Mr Kissinger had Ix-cn bumbling and Inrf

spective 3)27 days of government that were never dull, that registered
many solid accomplishments and yet ended on the bleak note of a
voluntary resignation that would otherwise have ended in a trial for
impeachment in the Senate
Herewith are five accomplishments in the foreign field under Mr
Nixon unequaled by any other administration in recent history
A negotiated Vietnam cease-fire in January 1973. Il did not suc­
ceed in halting the fighting, but led to the withdrawal of American
cumbat force and the removal of Vietnam as a major irritant in big­
power relations
An opening to China, the highlight* of which were Kissinger's
secret trip to Peking in July. 1971. and Nixon's journey there tn
February, 1972 These led to the establishment of so-called "liaison of­
fices" tn Peking and Washington, a first step toward forma)
diplomatic relations.
A decided improvement in relations with the Soviet Union,
marked by numerous agreement with Moscow, and an important ac­
cord limiting strategic nuclear wcapons-made up of a treaty on
defensive weapons, and an interim arrangement on offensive ones
A move to find a Middle East settlement, spurred by the ArabIsraeli war of October. 1973 which placed the United States -through
Kissinger—in the middle-man's role In January. 1974. he achieved an
Egyptian-Israeli agreement to separate their forces along the Suez
Canal A second disengagement accord between Israel and Syria was
worked out by Kissinger in May
A decision by the United Stales to reduce its worldwide in­
volvements. thereby softening the ideological confrontation with the
communist world and lessening its obvious presence in Latin
America. Africa and other underdeveloped part* of the world

Mr Nixon has been afforded
"due process" in all court
proceedings since Watergate
The proceedings have been more
than fair. In fact, if any other
citizen had refused to co-operate
as much as the President has. he
would be in jail now
A statement about public
opinion
polls
prejudicing
President Nixon’s case was made
in that Aug I editorial. This up­
sets me because when public
opinion polls were working In
President Nixon's favor against
George McGovern in the 72 elec
bon. no mention was made about
the evils of public opinion polls
Now. all of a sudden public
opinion poll* are bad because
they are against President Nixon.
Sure the Watergate and im­
peachment hearing* have cost
money. We spent a naif a million
dollars a day for 10 years in Viet
Nam. I’ll bet the investment for
freedom that we're making now
with impeachment will have a
greater reward for the American
than our 10 year rip off in
East Asia. How much
money are we willing to pay to
protect our individual freeooms’
Finally, the 1“’resident can be
impeached for something other
than treason He can be impeached for bribery, high crime*,
and misdemeanors That's in the
U.S Constitution which guaran
tees freedoms for each and every
citizen Those freedoms will be

that have done’ He would have
lost his job. That's already hap­

the case have proven this true I

ment can gel rid of the twill and
chain it has been dragging for 2
years

T*Uie Editor:
Well the oppnsition forces have
finally accomplished their pur­
pose and the President is laid
low I am curious to see what they
can build up now to enable them
to disqualify Gerald Ford
It seems to me that I heard
Mimething about some one giving
him a bushel of apples when he
was running for office Perhaps
that will do it I think we have
about reached the depths Not so
much over the Watergate affair
itself as I heartily agree with
Gen
Haig
who
stated
"Watergate is like enemy fire, a
burden to be endured Then he
added “The watergale climate
has been a great discomfiture to
me It has resulted in a diversion
of efforts from anything all of us
would like to accomplish
Still regarding, the break in as
a second rale burglary be feels it
should tie critiied but he adds,
historians are going to wonder
how in God s name could we be
engaging in such a diversion of
National effort and energy over
such chicken feed" End quote
To me the affair itself was of
minor importance but what does
concern me is the spint which it
has engendered The hatred, and
desire for revenge which is so ap­
parent. and which originated
from their defeat at the polb.
which was of such magnitude
Thi* was their golden opportunity
and they made the most of it. I
think if Pre* Nixon had been a
democrat this investigation
would never have reached first
base The reccnl indictment of
John Connally is another exam­
ple of how power politics works
When he deflected from the
democrat party he signed his
death warrant politically.
We have been warned that
Nixon aspired to a dictatorship
but as I see it our danger in that
direction was never so great as it
is at the present time in the effort
to establish a one party system If
that is our course we have indeed
racriflctd our liberty I honestly
believe it is not only unwise but
unsafe fcr anyone to run for any
high office on the Republican

I read one little sentence in the
editorial by R.M.C. in this week's
Banner with a great deal of in­
terest He states: "If America
can't take a Watergate in stride
then we are a nation of weak
lings, indeed " I pondered that
statement and by that standard I
must admit I am a coward, as to
me this is a tragedy not only per­
sonal but National beyond

perienced, and from which thi*
generation at least will never

be now that I'd graduated It waa
a matter of personal satisfaction
for me and for my parents too, as
I was the only one of their 4
children who hadn’t graduated
from high school. I also wanted
my children to see how important
it is to finish schnol and show
them that their mother could do
it
The brg surprise was uhat it
meant to other members of my
family and fnends They treated
me to a parly and dozens of cards
and gifts Many raid how brave I
was Io go hack to school It
doesn't require bravery because

Richard Kinnison. 49, of

suffered a broken neck about

he fell from a ladder while trim­
ming a tree on Bridge Park Road
near Thcmapple Lake, according
to the Hastings police ambulance
report He was taken to Pennock
and later transferred to Com­

Small nodular swellings in
the neck or armpits are
usually
caused
by
an
infection. This is nature’s
way of fighting the infection
- the lymph nodes enlarge
while producing an anti­
toxin to kill the infection.
The lymph nodes return tc
normal when the infection
is overcome. If the lymph
nodes remain enlarged, and
perhaps tender, lor some
time - this is the danger
signal ol a serious infection

THE HASTINGS BANNEU

EDITORIAL
by R.M.C

Ford Offers ‘Second Opportunity
second opportunity to those
their ways and are willing to enroll for a specified period in the same
sort of non-combat service that was available to them as C O’s in the
first place
Although we can sympathize with those who advocate no clemen­
cy whatsoever to the draft dodgers and deserter* who fled to foreign
countries rather than fulfill obligations of citizenship, we can go along
with a policy of reconsideration providing each case is considered on
its own ment and that nothing even remotely membling a general

sense of obligation to their country A general amnesty would be even
worse than an insult to the memory of those who died in service in the
hostitle environment of South Vietnam
However, if there arc those who are sincere in their desire for a
second chance at U.8 citizenship and arc willing to undergo the years
of nun eombat service that would have been theirs in the first place, it
might be well to modify strict rule of no-amnesty to that extent This is

To those deserters who hold to the assertion that they committed
no wrong against their country and refuse this offer of penalty service,
then the door to re-entry should be closed firmly and decisively for all
lime IxH them become citizens to Canada and Sweden, who offered
asy lum and encouraged desertion in the first place
There are many yixmg Americans who served in the armed forces
during the Vietnam era who would have preferred civilian pursuits
and who altered intended carters because of the yean spent in ser­
vice It would be an insult to these men and to the memory of those who
died in service or in the cruel prison camps of North Vietnam to offer
blanket amenesty to the thousands of deserters now living in com­
parative comfort and secunt y abroad

‘Earned Re-Entry’ Is Not Amnesty
"Earned re-entry” and not amnesty u the purpose of a program,
tiring considered by President Ford, designed to make it possible for
draft dodgers and deserters nos living in foreign countries to return
home if they so desire Those taking advantage of this offer must
agree Io enter civilian public service for a specified period of time and
execute a formal pledge of reaffirmation of allegiance to the United
States
However, if spokesmen for the deserters and draft dodgers living
abroad accurately reflect the opinions of the rank and file of these
exiles, the response will not be large They insist for example, on un
conditional amnesty with absolutely no strings attached In fact, many
of them feel that their country owes them an apology for creating con
thlions that forced them to desert or to flee to foreign nations to avoid
the draft
If there are those among the deserters or draft dodgers who now *
sec the error of their ways and are willing to admit same and serve
their countn- in a non-combat capacity for a specified length of time,
then it would be both merciful and forgiving to offer them this chance
But to the others who defied their country, we should not give an
inch.

Merger of Publications Not Healthy
Announcements of the proposed merger of Knight Newspaper*
and Ridder Publications indicates a trend in the media field that is
cause for some concern Knight has sixteen daily papers in seven
states and Ridder nineteen publications tn ten states Assuming that
neither Knight nor Ridder are competing in the same states, the new
combine wifi control thirty-five news outlets in seventeen states
This trend toward bigne»* in the publication aeld is undoubtedly
an economic necessity in the rough struggle for survival. It takes
economic strength to maintain the independence that a worthwhile
gibhcation should hare, and from that standpoint. this trend is

At the same time it must be recognired that another end result of
consolidation is the placing of news and editorial control of more and
more publications in larger and larger areas in fewer and fewer han
ds This, in a sense, means placing mayor control of news and editorial
opinion throughout the United Slates in the hands of a comparatively
small group of newspaper executives In a nation where free speech is
regarded as a sacred right, this is not a healthy trend
The same thing only more so) is happening in TV* where major
news control is now centered in three big chains
Newspapers have set as one of their major tasks, that of a "public
watch dog.' and as such have done excellent service But. as the
newspaper chains grow in strength and power, what force is there in
the nation strong enough to watch and censure them in case they use
their power and influence in a manner not in the best interest of the
nation?
We have tn mind the growing tendency of some publications to
usurp the proper functions of the court and serve as persecutor, judge
and Jury in certain sensational cases, making it almost impossible for
the individual concerned to receive a fair and impartial trial that is
supposed to be the birthright of any American citizen.
Thomas Jefferson, who extolled the valu? of a free press in a
nation of free people, probably never envisioned the development of
powerful newspaper chains under control of one management and
covering large areas of the nation So far. competition, if nothing else,
has kept the chains in line and the American press without doubt
operates with greater freedom and is more aggressive and alert than
the press of any other nation tn the world
But. as history hasproven tune and time again - "power corrupts"
and the basis is here already in the presence of large news ccmbines
If such a catastrophy doe* happen, what force have we to serve as a
“check and balance " In a nation where freedom of speech is written
in the Constitution it would be difficult, if not impossible, to attack the
operation of the press in an effective manner, without running afoul of
constitutional law

Need Firmer Stand on Moral Issues
Attorney General William B Saxbe has warned that if crime in the
United State* continues to skyrocket, the only answer may be the
creation of a Federal police force • a step that he deplores But the fac­
ts are there - an increase of sixteen percent during the first quarter of
IBM
Among the reasons for this steady upturn in the crime curve, be
cites poverty, deprivation, permissiveness of all sorts - especially the
failure of parents to discipline their children - alcholism. pornography
and violence on television that "pours on us in an endless torrent "
Here in the United Slate* he believes that we have gone too far in
taking the attitude of "blaming crime on everything or evrtyone but
the criminal."
Mr Saxbe ts of the opinion that we must make toe risks of
criminal behavior much greater We must make certain, he said, that
the odds are in societies side and that when somebody commits a
crime he is then going to be caught and punished
The above, of course, is much easier said than done Our criminal
laws as they now stand are so full of technicalities and loopholes that a
clever criminal lawyer can undo mirths of careful police work One
gets the impression that our criminal laws, as they now stand, arc
stacked too heavily in favor of the individual charged crime and not
enough for the benefit of society in general
Abo. we believe that something is very wrong in a society where
police are comtemptuously referred to as "pigs" and the term "police
brutality" is bandied about with apparently no concern for the
mistreatment of police by people in the form of unruly mobs and the
number of officers killed each year in line of duty
One can't help but feel. too. that the soft and indecisive attitude of
the courts helps to inflate the enme wave Cases can be held over and
appealed from one court to another causing endless delay, which in
turn clogs court calendars and causes more delay Thus the one on
trial is granted an indefinite reprieve and in the end may go free
In our opinion the crime wave will not subside until we take a fir­
mer stand on moral issues and free ourselves from the "wishy-washy"
tolerance of all things good and bad that seems to characterise our
present attitude Many "old fashioned ideas' are not out of place in
our present society merely because they are not new

Band at band camp at Michigan

17th of August

participatioa woaM have la be
the opportunity of working direrth with the bind «n the marrhiaK
tteM.
The H H5 band has always
had a fine reputation at hand
camp This year was again a
repeat of good conduct and ex­

cellent performance This result
was accomplished by hard work
and cooperation on the part of
every band member
'
This year's band was ex­
ceptionally easy to work with
t&gt;cc.iuse of their stronfl deter
mmation to be the best band al
camp and to perform to their ut­
most ability Both of these goals
were accomplished
Each band at camp &lt; there were
8 this particular week &gt; works on
a marching show from Monday
through Friday and then &lt;n
Saturday morning they perform
what they have learned and ac
complished This performance is
always built up by the intense
competition between band*
This year at camp, the H II S
tiand proved without a doubt that
there was no competition great
enough to match them We have
both been with the band at camp
in years past, as band members
and as chaperones, but neither
one of us has ever seen a per
fortr.ance such as the one we saw
this year by our band
The. were the only band to
receive a standing ovation far
their marching pe. .ormanre
from the spectator* Also, the
judge* comments were nothing
but praise.
Excellent performance* are
not new to the H.H.S marching
band, but there is something else
that is new This vear the hand
features a 16 girl flag corps This
addition to the band at camp was
especially good Since the band
has never had flags, and these
girls are new to it. too. they had to
work extra hard With only one
week* drilling and practice these
fine girls out performed all the
other flag corps and were truly a
fresh and colorful addition to the
show.
We cannot forget however, the
men behind it al). Mr Teml
Zylman and his new assistant
director Mr Jack Bender These
men put in many hours of hard
work designing and perfecting
the show, besides being and
working with the band everyday
We feel it is about time that the
H H S marching band get the
recognition and praise that they
deserve
We ask that you will support
this fine organization and this
football season, instead of getting
a coke or pop corn al half-time,
keep vour seat and watch the
band perform We guarantee

you'll like what you hear and see
PS. We extend a "thank you"
to the band and a special thanks
to the flag corps for their hard
work and cooperation and for all
the honors and award* Iwwtowrd
upon us Friday night and
throughout the rest of the week
However, eveyrthing rl»e look
second place to the feeling of
pride and accomplishment that
we received from your per­
formance on Saturday morning
We also thank the other
chaperones for making what
med a job to many, a very en
vacation for us

After having been so nchly

was sad or needed to get away. I
went down to Penny in the horw
pasture and told her my troubles
or took a walk in the woods to
receive strength from nature
In the trailer park my boy went
only a couple yards out the door
before I had to call him back
because be was no longer in our
yard The children in the park
now play in the road One ha*
been tun over with a 10 speed

fear that mobile homes will bring
down the land value we had to
buy a house to be able to buy

Maybe I’m in the minority, but
I'd never heard anyone complain
about necessary park rules, it's
the crowded city living without
even the benefits of city living
such as tores or social functions
I'd rather live in a shack with
room to grow and experience

Heartburn or acid stomach
is nature's warning that
something has gone wrong
in the digestive system. It
could mean: 1) Some kind
of food you have eaten
doesn't agree with you. 2)
You have eaten too much or
too many varieties of food
so that the digestive luices
are confused (the kind that
digests one type o» food
may interfere with
the
digestion of another food).
3) Emotional upset, at whicn
all. or simply a glass of milk
or fresh vegetable juice. Pills
are not the answer - deter­

In summary, at this time there

Immature Corn Crop
There is hke&gt;y to be a con­
siderable amount o( immature,

vantages compared to dry

drying costs are eliminated and
the com is ready for feeding as
removed from lhe silo.
The main disadvantage is that
high moisture com has no market
other than as feed for livestock.
Ocraitanally U fails lo keep well
in the silo dne to air leaks or
because it did not pack well doe
to coarse grinding foe the par­

Propionic acid is very effective

Prairieville Adopts Construction
Code; Plans Auxiliary Fire Dept.
The Prairieville Township
trustees adopted the State Con
struction C ode at its meeting last
week By adopting the Stale's
code, as their own. enforcement
is left on a local level, but the
township would still be eligible
for assistance from the State, if
needed, for appeals, etc
Another advantage will allow

However, this choice was
elemiaaud because no assistan
ee -ooM be available fro* the
cowaty or the stale to help enforce
thia type of code.
In another matter, plana for an
auxiliary fire department are
progressing. The Prairieville
Township Board expects to
receive the final architectural

township coaid change II taler if
the cade does not function as n-

building
The proposed auxiliary fire
department will be a 37’ x 72' pole
building of insulated metal wall
construction It will include .-.
garage rocxn to bouse fire trucks

The board has ashed the Coun­
ty Planning and Zoning com
mission to consider sharing the
services of the county building in­
spector on a fee or contractual
basis with the township

The decision to adopt the Stale
code was reached after con
sadenng two other choices The
board could have done nothing
and the township would have
automatically been under the
State's Construction Code when it
becomes effective Oct 6 in town­
ship's without their own codes
But. by doing nothing, the en­
forcement of the code w ould have
been handled on a county level
rather than locally
The other choice was to adopt
another nationally recogalrrd
code, such as the Uniform
Building Code that the board had
considered
last
January.

Cover Crops Provide Great Benefits;
Control Erosion, Add Nutrients
There are numerous benefit* to
be reaped by tanner* who plant
winter cover crops
Cover crops help control
erosion. add organic matter and
plant nutrients to the coil, and in
crease water percolation They
also reduce leaching, improve
Mil structure and provide e rly
spring pasture All this from one
inexpensive practice

Cover crops can be used on
almost any land from which a
cultivated crop has been har­
vested.
Even home gardeners have
found mis peart ice valuable
A cover crop will act as a living
umbrella over land that may be
bare and exposed to wind and
water for more than six months
of the year. And when it is finally
worked into the soil, a cover crop
serves as a green manure.

Rve. winter barley, oats and
thick planted corn are al) good
cover crops Rye is the most
popular, and should be seeded at
a rate of 14 to 1 bushels per acre
Cover seeding, like most crops,
will respond well to fertilizer, es­
pecially nitrogen Extra nitrogen
may be added when seeding new
crops in the spring because
decomposition of old organic
matter may temporarily tie up
some of the nitrogen needed to
gives new crop a boost.
Winter cover crops are
especially Important on lands
•object to wind eroricn
Cover crops protect the land
during winter, and when spnng
comes, strips of growing rye can
be left at ernav angles to the
prevailing winds to protect young
plants such as sugar beets,
melons, corn, beans and cucum­
bers.

glaring contradictions in the
lives of those who claim to be
Christian and the Biblical stan

Cor* we rnuat draw upon that

both Rose must have the most
complicated calendar ever
devised to keep track of her

at always "just the nght tune"
Her experiences aa Coutfy Nurse
many yean ago have never left

From the story, one would
assume that the arrests would not

the owner of the Freeport

his right undr’ article Six of the

which retains a citizen's nght to
also assume that several other*
who own property could have
been "npped off", as the ex

There is a great deal of talk in
some esoteric legislative circles
these days about legislating
privately owned firearms out of
existence However, when the use
of such a privately owned
firearm could conceivably have
broken up a burglary nng it
should be obvious that such
firearms in the hands of citizens
who respect and are willing to
defend private property can be
beneficial to the community
Presumably, that is why the
drafters of Michigan's Con­
stitution included Article Six In
any case, there are a con­

Now’s the Time to
Study Proposals
Michigan voter! will be asked at the Nov. 9 general elec­
tion to approve or reject 4 bellot propotali. The propotali ore:
A. Limiting Um of Motor Fuel Tea Fundi.
B. Vietnam Veterans Bonus Bonds.
C. Removal of Sales Tea on Food and Prescription Drugs.
0. State-Wide Transportation Systems Bonds.
Now is the time for eoch elector to loom what he con
about these measures, so thet when he or she Is in the voting
booth, bo or she will bo oblc to vote Intelligently.
Proposal A would amend Article XI. Section 9, of the Stole
Constitution. If opprovod, the amendment would: 1. Prohibit
the um of motor fuel tea funds by law enforcement agencies
for highway patrol purposes and: 2. Limit the um of motor fuel
funds for public transportation to ono-elghtoenth (1-1B) of the
amount received.
The constitution now provides that specific feses Imposed
directly or Indirectly on fuels said or uwd for highway vehicles
end on registered motor vehicles be used exclusively for high-

Proposal A represents e leglsletivefcezecutlve office com­
promise formulated during 1972 deliberations concerning the
enactment of a package of transportation bills.
Proposal B would authorise the state Io borrow *209
million to provide veterans of Vietnam and other conflicts
who served between Jen. 1, 1991. and Sept. 1. 1973, with a
service bonus. Combat service vets (those eligible to wear the
Vietnam service medal or Armed Forces Expeditionary medal)
would receive *600. Noncombat veterans would receive a
maximum of *450 computed ot BIS per month for each month
of active duty.
Proposal C would remove the sales fas on food and
prescription drugs used for human consumption except food
prepared for Immediate consumption and alcoholic beverages.
The proposal provides that units of government, other then
the state, would bo compensated for the resulting loss of
revenues by Increasing each present allocation of sales tea
revenues to such units by one-fifth (1-Sth).
Piopossl D. if approved, would authorise the state to
borrow 91.1 billion to finance the planning, acquiring, con­
struction and equipping of various lend, air and water Iran
sportetlon systems, other then operating and maintenance
oapenMS.
Thu proposed bond funds would constitute the state's
share of a proposed *6.2 billion. 19-yaar public transportetlon
capital Improvement program. It Is anticipated thet federal
legislation will provide »4A billion and Michigan local govern
moots *957 million. Specific uses of the bond proceeds would
be provided by law aft er voter approval of the bondi.
The Nov. 9 election will bo vital. Not only will Michigan
voters elect their State officers, but they will also elect their
county commissioners end township officials.
Now Is the time for ell of us to prepare ourselves to cast
our ballots Intelligently.

we would be taking a giant step toward the establishment of a "police
stale." Thia I* not as far fetched as It may seem. The Michigan Com­
mission On Criminal Justice has proposed a draft of Criminal Justice
(.oats and Standards, which, if adopted, would serve as a blueprint for
Mate control of the Criminal Justice System, and elimination of some
local unit* of government in the veniitbe areas of police and
prosecutorial fmsctiou. among others. The original Stale Constitution
of l&gt;OS and the present State Constitution of I Ml base always given the
rigb» to the people to elect a Sheriff and Prosecutor of their choice.
As to the neglect of 'he lAriton area referred to by Mr Hammond,
we recently had an opportunity of meeting with the members of the
Dettoo Chamber of Commerce, other area law enforcement officers,
and Mr. Hammond. When persons present al that meeting leaned
that we often had only sufficient personnel to man one cruiser, parHcularis after boors of darion*. they wrre stunned and asked why
such a situalhM existed We explained that the Barry County Sheriffs
Department has a TOTAL of eleven road patrolmen, one of whom
des otes hi* time solely Io the sen Ice of legal papers, thns leaving only
ten patrolmen for actual road patrol duly. Furthermore, these ten of­
ficer* are assigned to serve on five different shift*, i e.. K:00 A.M. • 5:00
P.M.t 2:M P.M. • ll:M P.M.; l|:M P.M. - *:M A.M.; 4:04 P.M. - 3:00
VM.: and 1 M P.M. - 2:00 A M. For example, during the boors 3:00
A.M. thru a:M A.M.. there are never more than two officer* on road
Crol dots This department i* aware of it* restrictions concerning
i enforcement: however, when the Barry Counts Board of Com­
missioners refuses to approve reasonable requests from the Sheriff
regarding the authoriration of additional personnel, technical equip­
ment. and on rood" equipment such as cruisers, shot go .. radar
nails, etc . it becomes readily apparent that the citisea* of this County.
through their Board of Commissioners, receive onlv as much protec­
tion as the t ommistiocers feel Is adequate One of the reasons
freqoentlv cited by the Commissioners for failure to provide ad­
ditional officers is the fact that we are constantly demanding higher
salaries. This is partially true since a Deputy Sheriff In this depart­
ment with three or more year* of service earn* only 40.343 71 annually.
However, these same Deputies have not had a raise since January 1st.
1*71. and these salaries are not on a par with surrounding com­
munities. Apparently member* of the Delton Chamber ot Commerce
thought these salaries were extremely low since they made com­
parisons with other employee* in the area and came to the conclusion
that the Deputies were underpaid.
Specifically , records of this department disclose that in the Delton
area and the Township* of Barry and Hope alone, officers of this
department investigated Ml complaint* from January 1*1. 1071.
through September 30th. 1074. ranging in scope from drunk driving,
breaking and entering, fugitive*, traffic accMenta. assaults, to family
fights, prowlers, aad offense* against family and children, and other
cases ton numerous to enumerate herein Remember, too. the
geographical area* listed above are the area* Mr. Hammond
represent* and allude* to a* being "neglected". This is an average of
it complaints per month, or more than one complaint per dav for these
two Township* alone, of the total of the IC Townships which must be
policed in Barry County.
We feel it is lime that the public learned something of our
operation*, but more importantly, we also feel that some of the ■•half­
truths" and blame directed toward the Sheriff and his personnel
should be clarified by hard facts. Certainly, crime Is on the increase in

never did get a floor machine but finally received a used one. not
through the Commissioners, but through the good grace* of the
Bureau of Social Service* on loan. The same is true when we needed a
contractor's type wheelbarrow for the Jail, an item casting about 116

purchase of a wheelbarrow. Finally, long after the request, we were

However, this letter I* not lot ended to lake pot shot* al the Com­

tain Instances, the rooslitutenls of certain ( ommtssioners are not
being given clear, concise facU about law enforcement and Us ad
ministration by the Sheriff of this County.
From time to lime we hear criticism that our present Jail Facility
is adequate and that the Sheriff is trying to build an empire by
requesting that the present faciUly be enlarged to a capacity of 40 cells
rather than Its present capacity of I cells. The facts are that this
department is averaging 27 prisoner* per day lodged in Jail, with a
high count Io dale of 311 prisoners, thus necessitating the lodging of M
prisoner* In both the Ionia and Eaton County Jail*. In August and Sep­
tember. 1074. the bill for lodging prisoner* on the Ionia Counts Jail
amounted to IIZ.SM.3I. Tbeir bill to this department for the first nine
months of this year ha* exceeded 422.100. During thi* period, one of­

that perhaps a panel of knowledgeable police officials, together with
those Commissioner* who desire to participate, could meet whh con­
cerned citiren* in an open forum so that questions could be answered,
and more Importantly, problems faring police officers could be
brought to light with a view toward solving those problem*.

That open letter last week from the members of the

Sheriff s Deportment sold a lol of things lhal should be sold. In

fact, if they think about it. most citizens would agree that
basically, they already knew many of those things.
Police Deportments in rural areas ore facing increasing
problems, just like city deportments. With such a wide area to
cover, with so lew men, it is impossible to be everywhere at
once.
The sheriff's department in the area I recently came from,
in northern Ohio, hod much the some problems. The workload
keeps increasing, without a proportionate increase in mon
power.
On the other hand, the money problem is not an easy one
to master. County government in many areas is faced with
spiraling costs, and increasing number of responsibilities, and
very little increase in revenues. Although I don't yet know all
tho counly budget figures. I see evidence of that happening

If voters desire a one party

more to lhe overwhelming

you will just add more inflation,
more loss of the things that have

the economy the two parties seem to bo working ewfro-hard this

Both candidates for
Governor have made
promises.
The difference is, Gov.
Milliken has kept his.

It was Gov. Milliken who
produced 236,400 new jobs
for the people of Michigan,
through initiatives in tax
incentives, transportation
programs, and expanded
domestic and foreign
markets for Michigan
products.
Gev. KlllUaa cal Lum.

It was Gov. Milliken who
reduced state taxes by
almost $500 million in the
past two years, and
returned $280 million to

Michigan city and county
governments this year.

But. Mlllkaa

tidud edueatioa.

It was Gov. Milliken who
produced the historic school
aid legislation that now
assures every child in
Michigan an equal chance
for a quality education.

It was Gov. Milliken who
came to the aid of
Michigan’s unemployed by
eliminating the “waiting
week” requirement, and
extending unemployment
benefits from 26 to 39 •
weeks, giving the average
family of four $1,781 worth
of additional benefits.

Our. KUUkaa hulRd tba

And it was Gov. Milliken
who fought for Michigan's
400,000 Vietnam veterans,
leading the fight to put the
Vietnam Veteran’s Bonus
on the ballot.
Governor William G.
Milliken.
You can believe what he
says. Because he believes
what he says. And his
proven leadership,- judg­

Though November may be □ month ol few surprises it also is
one ol many anticipations Any child can tell you Christmas is not that

Farm credit is reasonably

knowing how and wnere you'll get
the necessary credit is essential

Safety on
Farms
A community campaign to
promote a safe corn harvest
is being conducted by lhe
Hastings Future Fanners of
America.
Member* will study corn
harvest safety during their
vocational
agriculture
classes and will develop a
listing of safety practices
Then FFA member teams
will visit farm families in the
Hastings community to
review safety rules for
operating corn harvesting
equipment and ask the far­
mer to agree to follow a list of
safety practices
Farmer* who agree to
follow these rules will have a
"Safe Operator ' sticker out
on his equipment by the boys,
according lo George Hubka.
HHS vocational agriculture
instructor
Also, farm homemakers
will receive a corn harvest
safety card for placement on
the dining room table to
remind the entire family that
corn harvest safety is a
family affair
"We think corn harvest ac­
cident* can be prevented if
each farmer knows and
follow* safe operating rules."
My* Lua Smith, president of
the Hastings FFA Chapter
The Michijun Rural Safety
Council is furnishing the sup
plies for this project

If you are driving a late

more than a year since
you've had your cooling

A spark plug may look
good to the casual observer
after 15,000. 30.000 or even
30 .000 miles
So why change plugs
after 10.000 miles of use
in your family car’
There's a good reason
according to experts The
10.000 mile change recom­
mendation is not actually
based on the fact that
spark plugs are 'worn out"
in the strictest sense after

10.000 miles of service
This figure — selected
after extensive spark plug
life teste — merely repre­
sents a safety factor be­
yond which plugs may
misfire under the sudden
demands of peak acceler­
ation or extremely heavy
load.
&lt;.'•• Economy Drops
It also represents the
point al which gas econ­
omy begins to drop In
addition, the car Is harder
to start, power b lost In

A spark plug b con­
sidered worn out when it
reaches the point where It
b likely to misfire — re­
gardless of Its appearance.
And contrary to popular
opinion, rrbilling doesn't
necessarily mean the plug
didn't create a spark It
means simply that the
plug failed to ignite the
gasoline property—wheth­
er a spark was produced
or not!
A new spark plug with
the correct gap setting
needs about 5.000 volts to
fire However, as the plug
remains in service, con­
stent heat and chemical
attack plus electrical ero­
sion cause the gap to be­
come wider, thus increas­
ing the amount of voltage
to fire the plug
imp Get. Wider
Spark plug gap growth
occurs at a rate of about
001 inch for each 1,000
miles of driving. Conse­
quently. a set o' plugs that
has been In senice for
10.000 miles generally will
have gaps that are about
010 inch wider than the

original settings and
higher voltage k needed
to make them spark
And. thb b only for
normal driving. Operating

the engine at very high
speed can decrease the
amount of coil voltage
available to fire the spark
plugs by 30 to 40 percent!
Accelerating to pass on a
highway may practically
double the voltage burden
on the spark plug
Nerd. More VoiU«r
That's why misfiring b
first noticed while accel­
erating because It's here
that the plugs actually
can require more voltage
to produce a spark than
the ignition system b ca­
pable of producing - - es­
pecially If the plugs are
badly worn
Remember, as plugs re­
main tn service, more volt­
age b needed to make
them spark As the ignition
system ages, its ability
to produce high voltage
lessens. If the point b
reached where the spark
plugs require more voltage
to spark than the system
can produce, the spark
plugs misfire

Tune-Up
No. 2 is
Vital
Take your car lo your
service station and ask tlie
attendant to give your ear
"Tune-Up Number 2" and
he'll probably look at you
and scratch hb head He
knows about tunc-ups. but
he probably doesn't know
about "the second tune­
up.”
Yet Tune-Up No 1" b
a vital part of your car's
maintenance, one that’s
long overdue in moat cars
fune-Up No 3 b simply
a thorough inspection and
check of all the compo­
nents In youj car's cooling
system and replacement

IS*. Worth It
The cost of a cooling
system tune-up b rela­
tively small compared to
the potential savings you
eould realize by prevent­
ing a costly break-down or
expensive engine repairs
A cooling system tune-up
normally takes about an
hour and a half lo accomplbh and it carries a nom­
inal fiat rate of 310 00 plus

A less sensational and far
less physical means to a more

NAME WITHHELD
To the Editor:
Sunday. Nov. 17,1 drove in­
to Hasting* with my mother
and sister. As we turned off
Wood School Road onto W.
Slate Road, we had the good
fortune to get behind a
Chevrolet Kingswood
We believe that this driver
and his companion were hun­
ters who were obviously
drunk or were blind. Never in
my life have I seen such
erratic driving. When they
weren’t driving like they
were in the Indy SOO they
were moving a snail's pace
This in itself wasn’t so bad
However they generally were
on the opposite side of the
road.
We followed this car all the
way to the corner of Broad­
way and State when we wat­
ched until, the driver waited
until a oncomingcar was nnl
about on him before he pulled
out to go straight on East
State. Having gotten the
license no. we proceeded to
the glorious Hastings police
as we are instructed to do in a
time like this.
My mother then went in
and reported thisdriver

There were three of our boys
in blue who assured my
mother that they would
check into the matter. We
were afraid that if not stop­
ped. someone could quite
possibly be killed and it
wouldn't be the driver of the
car.
I decided that I would wait
to see if they actually would
check as they said they
would.
I stood in the Kroger
parking lol waiting for them
to go by. After a period of
time 1 realized that nothing
was to be done.
Isn’t it nice to know that the
people of Barry have this
kina of police force.
It chilled me to the bone
that any member of my

family might have the
misfortune to meet up with
this driver. I pray to God it
never happens. Oh by the way
there was a sign on this car
that said "God is Love." He
might save you but what
about the innocent people you
might kill?

Let New
Cars Idle
a Bit In
Winter
Cars built since 1973 have
special emission controls and
different carburetor settings
which makes them more dif­
ficult to warm up in cold
weather
H's a good rule if you drive
one of these late model cars
to let the engine idle for a few
minutes before pulling into
fast-moving traffic A cold
engine gives poor per
formance.
marked
by
hesitation, poor acceleration
and stalling
The notion that cars built
before 1973 should be started
and allowed to idle for five or
10 minutes before driving in
cold weather is a myth
Wanning up the engines of
these oldes cars in this man
ner can waste a pint or more
of gasoline, according to auto
experts
What's more, it
doesn't help the car and very
often it can be harmful
An Idling engine does little
work which means that it
lakes longer to reach
operating
temperatures
Driving at moderate speeds
for the first mile or two after
starting actually warms the
engine faster
When the car is driven in
cold weather, there is less
corrosive condensation from
exhaust gases and less
gasoline consumption than
when the car idles
Every motorist can con­
duct a simple test on his own
car to prove to himself that
his car will warm up quicker
•vhen it's driven. How?
Check the length of lime it
takes for the "cold" light to
gooff on two successive day*
One day allow the car to idle
and on the second day. drive
the car after the engine is
started
Whether your car is new or
old. it only lakes a few days
for you to observe hou it
reacts in cold climates Then
vou can adjust your driving
habits so your car gives you
smooth, safe and economic
service

Understanding Makes Senior, Junior
Farm Partnerships Good
Communication is one of
the keys to a successful
family farm partnership
Defining objectives for the
business and establishing
roles for partners is most imB:rtant. says Dr. Ralph
epp, Michigan Slate Univer­
sity agricultural economist
The senior partner has his
reasons for including his son
or son-in-law in the business
He fas the necessary capital
but shorter time to offer. He
has years of experience and a
strong desire to continue in
farming.
The junior partner realizes
that his family offers him a
way to break into farming
gradually He usually has
less capital, more new ideas
and is more willing to take
risks and go into debt He
realizes the need to go bigger
and has his lifetime to work
on it.
Hepp advises they talk
about their goals until they
arrive at common agreement
terms that will continue
through time Hepp stresses
that they especially concur on
ways to transfer capital and

management over time
Hepp recommends that the
junior partner go on wages
until the time he marries or
decides for sure that farming
will be his lifetime oc
cupation. After this period, be
suggests the junior partner
buy into personal property
and split residual profits
A partnership is not always
necessary when beginning a
cash crop operation but it is
imperative in most livestock
production, Hepp reports
A major weakness in part­
nerships is not providing for

dissolution as the needs of the
partners change. This in­
cludes a buy and sell
agreement to transfer the
departing partner’s capital.
Extension programs are of­
fered in forming partnerships
and include such topics as
capital and management
transfer, role of spouses,
communication, and mutual
understanding of all family
memtxfrs involved. If in­
terested in this program con­
tact your county extension
director for more
in­
formation.

Teachers Can

Cold

Get Economic

Cold weather saps the
strength from your car’s bat­
tery. which makes starting
difficult. But. in addition to
that, other moving parts
become sluggish, too. which
adds to the power drain
Quick starts not only save
wear and tear on the battery,
but save the driver from un­
necessary anxiety
And.
there are a number of things
a motorist can do to start his
car quicker and easier in
frigid weather, according to
auto experts.
As a matter of habit-even
in warm weather-all of the
electrical accessories in the
car should be turned off
before starting tbe engine
Th? lignts. defroster,'
heater, radio and other ac­
cessories rob the battery' of
the power needed to turn the
engine over. Of course, once
the engine's running the
generator replaces that
power dram
Pumping the accelerator a
couple of times before tur­
ning on the ignition is usually
a good policy to aid in quicker
starting.
This
permits
gasoline to flow into tbe in­
take
manifold
where
vaporized fuel can get into
the cylinders
The owner s manual for
most new cars includes tips
on how to start that par­
ticular car. It will give ad­
ditional clues on how you can
expect your car to react
Good quality, multi-grade
crankcase oil is a good in­
vestment any time of the
year, but it is especially
valuable in cold weather
because it permits the engine
to move freer once the bat­
tery kicks it over. A fivegrade oil, for instance, will
protect moving parts better,
while it permits tnem to move
easier no matter bow cold it
gets outside

CANCER PROTECTION
At this point in history, we
don't know the cause of
human breast cancer, but
medical science does know
now -if women cooperate
It's really a matter of
education. For years the
American Cancer Society has
been leaching women to sec d
physician atlhe first sign of
an
unusual
lump
or
thickening in the breast. This
is probably the most famous
cancer warning signal in the
world!
But, that signal doesn't
have to mean cancer. I wish
that women would un­
derstand that most breast
lumps indicate a perfectly
harmless condition, however.
It’s something to be checked
by a physician.
If a woman has a lump
properly checked, she win
gain peace of mind if nothing
is the matter.
If cancer is present, she
will be ahead because the
earlier cancer is diagnoeted,
the better the chance of cure.
There are thousands of
women in this country who
are alive today, cured of
breast cancer and you can be
sure they know the value of
early diagnosis.
Every woman should prac­
tice monthly breast selfexaminat.un-our local . ACT

High feed costs and low

ratio (or August to the lowest

dications that dairymen were
going to receive a 13 percent
increase in Class I milk tur
ned out to be "a great big
goose egg." Lake says.
One of the more depressing
effects on the milk market
has been dairy product im­
ports, which, curing the last
IB months, saw 6.9 billion
pounds of milk equivalent im­
ported. Lake says it was not
needed and most of it was
subsidized.
"The manufactured milk
product market continues
stagnant and has not
recovered from the glut of
imports. Wholesale butter
and cheese prices have
recovered some from the low
point but the nonfat dry milk
market ndes on the price sup­
port levei." Lake says
Commercial dairy product
stocks Oct 1 equated to 7 2
billion pounds ol milk-up 80
percent from 1973 levels and
at rn all time high record for
that date.
"At year end. I would

estimate the carryover In­
ventories of cheese would be
around CO million pound*,
nonfat dry milk at 260-300
million pounds and butter at
60-73 million pounds All
carryover slocks will be at
least double what they were
at the end of 1973, Lake
Tc believes that if the
economy does not worsen too
severely, if imports can be
curtailed or shut off. if higher
price supports can be
established and if price con­
trols arc not imposed, the
milk marketing outlook could
improve in 1973
Lake admits there are a lot
of "Us" in the outlook but he
cannot, at this time, based on
available economic data,
foresee a brighter outlook for
dairymen

To the Editor.
I am getting just a little
tired of all the criticism that
our Barry County police of­
ficers receive Before anyone

When men are sincere
about serving God they are
willing lo do things as God
says, and not necessarily in
the way they have been
reared or taught. We need to
meet. talk, exchange pulpits
or take whatever steps will
heir us to be those who are
added to the body of Christ,

"Don’t bother me now
...Pm busy!”
There was a time when the funeral director (or "undertaker** as he was called
than) didn't need to be personable. Or specially trained. Or even polite.

About all he needed in those days were a hammer and some nails, along with

Times have changed, and nr're glad they d.d Tooay. if a funeral director doesn't
like people
if he doesn't really want to help and know how »o help others in
countless ways -- then he’s in the wrong profession.

to Church Street to Apple,
from Apple to Washington
and from Washington to
Madison
The main will replace pipes
ranging from an inch and a
quarter to 4 inches. The
project will also include a
hookup from Washington Io
the treatment plant to book
up with the new main across
the river, improving water
pressure in lhaI area
The job will be financed
from funds remaining from
the bond issue floated to
finance construction of the
new waste treatment plant
There is 6156.396. IS left tn the
fund and the law firm of
Miller. Canfield. Paddock &amp;
Slone said 15 percent of the
total bond issue could be used
for enlargement and ex­

tensions to the water-sewer
system, which totals SI35.000.
The remainder of the
6156,396 15 or 631.396.15 must
be used to call or buy the bon­
ds on the open market The
bonds are not yet callable, so
they will be purchased on the

School athletic* were the
main topic at the Tuesday
meeting of the Hastings
Board of Education, and
there were several in­
dications that changes are
corning in the junior 3rd
senior high school athletic
programs
Responding to a report by
Mrs Linda Mast on a recent
meeting of people concerned
about athletics. Board Mem­
ber Richard Groos said that
the board had been "aware of
this problem for quite a
while” and that plans fo&gt;
changes "ought to come out
prettysoon.
Superintendent
Richard
Guenther said that some
decisions on the actual
changes are being held off un­
til a new football coach is
hired. tiecause the board feels
that he should have some say
about future plans for the
football program Later, he
said that the job has been of­
fered to a man qualified to be
both football coach and
athletic director.

In answer to a question
from Guenther. Mrs Mast
said that the boosters or a
committee from the boosters
would like to serve as an ad­
visory body and have some
voice tn athletic affairs
Groos emphasized that he
felt that the required physical
education program was a
higher priority item than in­
terscholastic athletics He
said that the board has been
working to improve the phys
ed courses, which are
required for ninth and tenth
Ende students, and this will
ve some benefits for in
tcncholaslic sports as well
Groos admitted that "the
boys program has gone to
pot." but pointed to girls
sports and some minor sports
as areas where Hastings is
doing very well
Groos asked rhetorically
whether an eighth grade
coach should have a "win at
all costs" attitude or whether
his job should be to train the
youngsteis for the next level

of sports He said that the
board philosophy is that in
the lower grades, training is
the most important aspect,
but that this philosophy has

and from Washington to
Madison
The main will replace pipes
ranging from an inch and a
quarter to 4 inches. The
project will also include a
hookup from Washington Io
the treatment plant to book
up with the new main across
the river, improving water
pressure in lhaI area
The job will be financed
from funds remaining from
the bond issue floated to
finance construction of the
new waste treatment plant
There is 6156.396. IS left tn the
fund and the law firm of
Miller. Canfield. Paddock &amp;
Slone said 15 percent of the
total bond issue could be used
for enlargement and ex­

tensions to the water-sewer
system, which totals SI35.000.
The remainder of the
6156,396 15 or 631.396.15 must
be used to call or buy the bon­
ds on the open market The

School athletic* were the
main topic at the Tuesday
meeting of the Hastings
Board of Education, and
there were several in­
dications that changes are
corning in the junior 3rd
senior high school athletic
programs
Responding to a report by
Mrs Linda Mast on a recent
meeting of people concerned
about athletics. Board Mem­
ber Richard Groos said that
the board had been "aware of
this problem for quite a
while” and that plans fo&gt;
changes "ought to come out
prettysoon.
Superintendent
Richard
Guenther said that some
decisions on the actual
changes are being held off un­
til a new football coach is
hired. tiecause the board feels
that he should have some say
about future plans for the
football program Later, he
said that the job has been of­
fered to a man qualified to be
both football coach and
athletic director.

In answer to a question
from Guenther. Mrs Mast
said that the boosters or a
committee from the boosters
would like to serve as an ad­
visory body and have some
voice tn athletic affairs
Groos emphasized that he
felt that the required physical
education program was a
higher priority item than in­
terscholastic athletics He
said that the board has been
working to improve the phys
ed courses, which are
required for ninth and tenth
Ende students, and this will
ve some benefits for in
tcncholaslic sports as well
Groos admitted that "the
boys program has gone to
pot." but pointed to girls
sports and some minor sports
as areas where Hastings is
doing very well
Groos asked rhetorically
whether an eighth grade
coach should have a "win at
all costs" attitude or whether
his job should be to train the
youngsteis for the next level

of sports He said that the
board philosophy is that in
the lower grades, training is
the most important aspect,
but that this philosophy has

Dr Puweison, who is in
private practice in Berkeley
and is also Program Chief of
County. Calif., says that his
belief that marijuana caused
no harm was based on hu
own occasional use of the
drug-be tried it twice-and his
reading of available medical
literature which indicated
that pot was nonwddictive
and produced no harmful ef­
fects
However, he declares, his
observations of patic .t- who
used pot convinced him Hut
"chronic heavy use of
marijuana leads to a
deterioration of txxlily func
Hons that is difficult,
sometimes impossible, to
reverse." He cites numerous

thinking, and the need lo
seduce others into using

hove been fortunate In having fine musKial programs

In particular the recent program presented by lhe in­
strumental students in the Hastings Schools was ap­
preciated ond Iasi Sunday afternoon the Hostings High
School Choir Chorus and Glee Club sang their annual
Christmas concert in Central Auditorium
Special mention should be mode ol the soloists Todd
Mr Ninth More Hendrickt Becky Robbe Tom Mr Keough and
Teresa Wilson and lhe accompanists Joyce Day June
Nicholson and Poth Aumick
The many hours spent by lhe musicians ond singers in
preparing lor these public programs certainly were reflec­
ted in the quality ol the concerts.
In addition to the general concerts. Hastings High Choir
members under Director Herbert Moyer, will hove presen
ted more than 25 programs to groups before this wonderful
season is over. These appearances are mode with con­
siderable personal sacrifice and effort by Director Moyer
and his singers

tuned hi* resignation so that
'I would be impossible for a
special election to be held,
and arranged it so that his

his successor Now that It ha*

be another timely resignation
on the part of Judge Mitchell
When we vote far a county

The gift wo* one of several presented to the longtime
sheriff and his wife at a dinner at leason Sharpe Holl Well
over 100 well-wishers- both from Barry County and the en­
tire southern half ol lhe *tate--gathered to say hollo and
good luck to the veteran policeman.
If may be a custom in the law enforcement fraternity,
but it surprised this writer to see how many sheriffs drove
many miles to attend the banquet This spook* well for Cam­
pbell and the wide circle of friends the Barry County sheriff
gathered in hit long career
We hod another pleasant surprise later that evening
when we took in the last half ol the Hastings Waverly
basketball game The game itself was exciting, with lhe
Sa«ons overtaking their opponents in a breathtaking late
gome rally
But equally interesting was the fine gym facility which
Hostings High School possesses We hove attended ond
photographed basketball gomes in dozens of high school
gyms ond we hove yet to see a finer one for the sport

For example Don i we ail
believe that every word of the

Don’t we all agree that

agree that God loves us. that
He gave His

Don't we all agree that Jesus
was more than a good
teacher, that He Is God. and
that we I lave redemption

(Hebrews 1:1; Ephesians

that Jesus bodily arose from

Gardeners Order
Seed For Spring
Michigan borne gardeners
had better order ibetr needed
seed well ahead of timethere h apt to be a shortage
Due to nsing fund prices,
home vegetable gardening is
expected to increase 20 per­
cent
next
year,
says
Michigan Slate University
horticulturist James E
Motes
' Reports from seedsmen
indicate that snap bean sc&gt;d
is one of the few vegetable
seeds In plentiful supply
Carrot, onion and other seed
supplies will be abort," Dr
Motes says
He suggests gardeners ob­
tain the 1973 seed catalogues
as soon as possible and place
orders soon after they arc
received Seed costs will be
higher and some cases double
the 1974 prices
Motes cautioned gardeners
not to order more seed than
necessary, allowing seed sup
plies io stretch as (ar as

possible
Though some vegetable
seeds can be earned over
from year to year, fresh seed
assures better gardens
Motes says it is not advisable
to save seed, as the quality is
usually poorer and disease
carryover is more likely than
when fresh seed is planted
Since good utilization of a
garden
is
important,
homeowners are encouraged
to obtain helpful literature
from their local county ex­
tension office
Bulletin E-7W(a) lists
names and addresses of
many seed companies that
have catalogues available It
also has recommendations
for planting varieties Ex­

Kalamazoo’s City Com­

editorium on the subject
■'State Itcp. Paul Rosen­
baum must sometimes feci as
though
he's
swimming
through gelatin in his efforts
to bring about a definite con­

issue
"The latest development in
that
long-running
con­
troversy is an opinion from
the state attorney general
which would appear to ex­
pedite a move to let the
people have a say in where
the regional airport should be
located
The Michigan Legislature
last session approved a
resolution of intent which
said that the regional airport
designation should go to
Kellogg Regional Airfield in
Battle Creek- if a majority
of the voters in the surroun­
ding five counties wanted
Kellogg
to
have
the
designation
"Representatives from one

or two of those counties said
the resolution was worthless
because their people would
just decline to vote on the
matter

the intent of the resolution by
refusing to put It to a vote
"But. wall, the tnck will lie
to gel the other counties to
place the issue on the ballot
"That might prove to be
difficult because the people in
Barry and Branch counties,
for instance, aren't as in­
volved in the airport con­
troversy as resident* here,
and the prospect of spending
thousands of dollars on a
special election might not ap­

"Rosenbaum, then, bet­

will be put to a vote,. will
have to show the officials in
the other counties that they

By Sally Lyons
Social Security Agent
Q. My husband who is 31
years old. has been getting
monthly social security
disability checks for a little
over a year Because it looks
like it will be a long time
before he can work again, 1 ’m
forced to go to work. Wil) his
disability payments be
reduced or affected in any
because of my earnings?
A. No. Your earnings will
not affect the disability
benefits your husband is get­
ting. The only time it may af­
fect his benefits would be if
you were receiving benefits
also.
Q. I applied for monthly
social security disability
benefits a couple of months
ago and I recently received a
letter saying I’m not entitled
to benefits because they don't
think my condition was
severe enough to keep me
from working. Does this af­
fect my eligibility for
retirement payments’ I’m
going to be 62 next year and
was planning to apply for
monthly social security
retirement checks
A. No The fact that you are
not eligible for social security
disability benefits does not
mean you’re not eligible for
other social security paymen­
ts. And if your condition
should worsen you have the
right to appeal the decision
that was made in your case.
There are times that the
disabled worker’s condition
changes and the Social
Security Administration is
not aware of this change and
the worker la denied benefits
because he did not appeal his
denial. If you prefer to wait
and file for retirement
benefits, you should file at
any social security office at
least two or three months
before you are age 62.
The Banner, in cooperation
with the Social Security Ad­
ministration, is publishing a
series of questions and an­
swers on social security sub­
jects If you have a question,
the Social Security Ad­
ministration will be glad to
answer it. Your social
security office, located at
Room 399, Federal Building.

MSU Medic Says Ulcer Patients Don’t Need Bland Diets
Take heart, ulcer palientsdinners may have new
dimensions!
Contrary to popular belief,
there is no proof that a bland
(and boring) diet helps cure
an ulcer
There's even serious doubt
about prescribing antacids
which sometimes help diminsh ulcer symptoms, but may­
rot heal duodenal ulcer.
Alcohol, however, con­
tinues on the prohibited list,
along with beverages con­
taining caffeine
These findings on ulcers
were discussed at a Michigan
State University Gastroen­
terology Conference by Dr
Davicl
S.
Greenbaum.
professor of medicine at
MSU's College of Human
Medicine.
"So little is known about
the cause of ulcers and the
role of diet treatment, it iust
isn't logical to chastise

patients for refusing to follow
bland diets," he said.
Although an individual
response of distress to a par­
ticular food or foods should be
honored, an across-the-board
warning to limit ulcer patien­
ts to bland diets has no scien­
tific basis. Dr. Greenbaum
noted.
"Important to lhe cause of
ulcers are hereditary factors
and some environmental
stresses." he said
Also discussed nt the con­
ference were fiberoptic
diagnostic
instruments,
which enable doctors to look
past the end of the stomach
into the duodenum for
possible ul-ers and other
problems
The $4,500 devices, which

Wildlife Challenged
In Winter
Winter is Nature's annua)
crisis time, and wild animals
and birds need three essential
elements to ensure their surof food,

survive Michigan's long, cold
winters,’’ says Glenn Dud­
de ar. wildlife management
specialist at Michigan State
University. "Severity of
weather is always a secon­
daryconsideration."
Dudderar explains that a
pheasant with plentiful food
and a spruce tree to sit under
can survive lhe worst bliz­
zards. But a well-fed bird
with inadequate shelter may
die under relatively mild
weather conditions
Wildlife adapts to cold
weather in many ways and
these changes are stimulated
by a decrease in the number
of daylight hours, says Dud­
derar.
"Most animals go on a
crash feeding program,
building up thick layers of fat
under the skin and around
vital body organs. This helps
preserve body heal and
provides a convenient source
of food energy."
In addition to increasing
their body fat, some animals
cache food stores Squirrels
bury nuts over a wide area,
but often forget where
they’ve stored their
treasurers As a result, they
unwittingly become tree
planters, responsible for
dispersing many of our nut­
bearing species.
Changes also take place in
the fur of some animals
"The white-tailed deer is
more difficult to see in winter
because the reddish summer
coat is replaced by a grey
coat of hollow brittle hairs.'
explains the MSU wildlife ex­
pert. "The air trapped inside
these hollow hairs makes a
very efficient insulating
barrier that readily sheds
water and retains body
heat."
Other animals grow a thick
covering of fuzzy hair that

long guard hairs tha. arc
present ail year shed water
and prevent the underfur
from becoming damp The
underfur in turn traps a layer
of warm air against the
body."
Waterfowl, such as geese
and ducks, are protected by a
downy underlayer dial per­
mits them to move about hap­
pily in near freezing waler
during a wowstorm.
A recent discovery in­
dicates that animals reduce
their activity during the most
severe winter weather "The
more we study animal ac­
tivity, the more energy­
saving behavior we record,"
says Dudderar "Everything
is done more slowly during
cold weather "
Few animals in Michigan
truly hibernate. "Most of the
so-called hibernating animals
will sleep through the worst
storms and extremely cold
weather, and then begin
foraging for food again when
milder days arrive," Dud­
derar explains.
"For example, it's not un­
common to see squirrels,
skunks and chipmunks rum­
maging around on sunny days
in January and February."
However. Dudderar ad­
vises people to recognize that
winter is a time for dying,
just as spring is a time for
rebirth
“For some animal species,
survival is assured by the
fact that moot of them die off
during the winter." he says.
"Grouse
and
rabbit I
populations may be reduced
as much as 66 percent.
"This reduces (he com­
petition for food, shelter and
water and allows those
animcls that survive to be
healthier and have a better
crop of young in the spring.
This phenomenon is
necessary, even though n
may seem unpleasant to
some of us." Dudderar con­

Some birds travel trrmen

distances
during
migration The arctic tern
travels thousands of miles
from the Arctic to the An­
tarctic Other birds move in a
rather casual manner, going
far enough south to find a new

food supply and avoid the
most severe weather.
Birds living in mountain
range* accomplish the same
ends by moving only a
relatively few miles. "In this
case the migration is up and

songbird will spend the win­

time of short food supply in
the spring. Grouse don't
migrate because the buds
that are a major part of their
diet are more plentiful in the
winter than st any other time
There appear to be four

The following history highlights are taken from Richard Cook's history as published in the 1956 Centennial Edition of The Hastings Banner, and recapped by Esther Walton in her From Time to Time column in The Banner dated April 12, 1984.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Links to online copies of the paper follow the history section.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Searching the paper:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;The Banner, and all other PDF files on this history portal, are fully searchable.

Burton &amp;amp; Co. were listed as the proprietors of the "Republican Banner", which first appeared here on May 1, 1856, with Dr. C. S. Burton as the publisher and Norman Bailey as editor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Publication office was on the second floor of the Rower Block, whose address was given as "corner of State and Church"; which corner was not specified.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The objective of this publication was to win support for the newly created Republican party and thus counteract the influence of the Barry County Pioneer, a Democratic journal that had been published here since 1851. No copies of the first three issues of The Banner were saved.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Make-up on the first journal corresponded with a pattern typical of most local journals then published. Page one contained a few columns of advertising, fiction (often a continued story), and a short feature of no particular news value. Page one was the "literary" page.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Page two contained the editorial barbs, along with state news, political articles, Washington items and news of the national and territorial giovernments. Page three contained a few items of local news, sandwiched inbetween the local and foreign news.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Page four was usually solid with advertising and as such was the editor's "bread and butter" page....Locally it was the pattern until the early 1880s.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Several changes in ownership and management occurred during the first two years of publication, with J. M. Nevins taking over ownership interests on July 16, 1857. With the issue of May 7, 1862, "The Republican Banner" became "The Hastings Banner". Editor Nevins thought the village had developed sufficiently during the past several years to merit this recognition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another major change in the management of The Banner came when Nevins sold the newspaper to George M. Dewey of Niles on March 14, 1866, who then took over as editor and publisher. Dewey, an ardent Republican and somewhat of a crusader, gave considerable space to editorial comment and party affairs and also directed pointed paragraphs against the saloons and local traffic in liquor. Dewey was the grandfather of Thomas E. Dewey, Republican presidential nominee in 1944 and 1948. Editor Dewey on May 4, 1870 changed the format (and name) of the paper to "Hastings Republican Banner". &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A fire in December 1883 burned The Banner plant (located in the middle of the block on the north side of State St. across from the courthouse). Files and back issues from August 1880 to December 1883 and the January 4, 1884 issues are missing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Banner was purchased by Marshall L. Cook and George Bower on July 21, 1880. They changed the name to "The Hastings Banner". M. L. Cook soon became the sole owner and remained so until July 7, 1887 when Albert Nishern (M. L.'s brother-in-law) joined him. Albert Nishern sold his interest on November 6, 1889 to William Cook (M. L.'s younger brother).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Cook brothers partnership held together (56 years) ... Richard Cook followed his father into the newspaper business, and Richard's son William joined him. So the Cook family ownership continued for 85 years, from 1880 to 1974, when Richard and William sold the paper to High Fullerton. J-Ad Graphics became the owners of "The Hastings Banner" in August of 1981.</text>
