Barry Farmers Join In Nationwide ‘Strike’ Protest
A group of Barry County
fanners, unhappy with cur
rent farm prices, earned
their pre lest to Hasting* by
blocking various meds in the
area Tuesday morning.
The group started on
West Stale St., and West
Green St., coordinating their
effort ao both west en­
trances into Hastings were
blocked far more than half
an hour.
After the TV’ cameramen
were done filming, the farm
e.n quickly moved their
equipment and opened up
the thoroughfares.
The farmers also moved
their machinery uptown md
blocked State St. at the
Jefferson St. intersection in
downtown Hastings for a
few minutes
"Were only trying to get
parity", one farmer told a
Banner reporter. Others
stated the same goal in
similar language. Another
farmer noted that factory
workers gel cnat-of-living
increases, and parity prices
would give the same pro­
tection to the farmer.
In converaationa with

newsmen on W. Slate St..
the farmers made it clear
that they were not repre­
senting any farm organixa
lion, and had no elected
leadership. "The farm or­
ganisations have been work
Ing for us for over 100 years
and they haven1! been able
to do the job." one young
farmer said. "Now we're
taking our ease to the pen
pto."
An older farmer comment
ed that the point of the
protest was to get their
message to the citixens. not
interrupt other activities.
He said they would let erncr
genry vehicles through their
jam.
Il appeared that 20 to 30
farmers were participaling
in the protest, with per
haps I wo dozen pieces &lt;4
equipment. The equipment
used to block the road*
ranged
from
tractors
through large combines to
(arm trucks and even a
manure spreader.
On W. State St., where
the largest amount &lt;4 equip
ment was gathered, law en
forremenl authorities were

not giving out tickets. Sgt.
Ron Me I) maid, head of the
Hastings Slate Police team,
told a reporter that the
blcxkage was in violation .4
the law. Asked if he were
going to give tickets. Me
Donald laughed and replied
that he would "fall back and
regroup first "
A few minutes after Me
l&gt;&lt;&gt;nald spoke, the farmers
began allowing traffic
through again. A half mile
away at Cook Rd. and Green
St., farmers moved their
equipment when they got
word that TV crews had
finished filming their rom
patriots on State St.
A Woodland area woman
wb&lt;&gt; said she owns a farm
and her family has a cen
tennial farm, strongly criti
cued the farmers method i4
protesting, saying they
should not "inconvenience
innocent people."
The farmers said that
everyone participating in
the protest, or "strike" as
their signs called it. was a
Barry County farmer.
"Were all neighb-rs." one
participant described them.

from it. Urban areas are the

that had been handed down
tr.r»ugh generation after
generation, which said that
when Adam married Eve in

agreed that Adam would do

did such a rotten job of
baking v-me apples, that
Adam got mad and decided
to do the rooking himwlf.
From then »n be wa* known

the first 8 minutes of play.
Dan Truhac led a Mar

quarter sinking four field
goals without a miss. Hast­

thing to keep the Saxons in
the ball game but the score

Wilson, chief of the
Department of Natural Re­
sources Waterways, .•divi­
sion. requested the meriiDg
in a letter lo township
Supervisor J«l Welly.
Barry County Circuit
Court Judge Richard Robin
•&gt;n granted permission last
month for the DNR to pur
chase 1.75 acre* adjacent to
Prairieville Township Park,
but he also issued a pre
llminary injunction to tern
poraniy prevent develop
ment of the land.
An order from Robin wm.
dated Jan. 3. slate* that the
office of lhe governor has
instructed the DNR that it
he required to submit lo lhe
governor an environmental
impact statement in accord
ance with executive order
1974 -4 concerning any pro
posed development of Gull
latke.
In view of that develop
ment. an ordered put rial
conference on the cause will
not be scheduled.
Plaintiffs and defendants
in the case have agreed that
lhe pretrial is not needed
until the DNR has submitted
lhe impart statement to the
governor. It is In be re­
viewed by the office of the
governor and lhe Michigan
Environmental Review
Board.
The Gull lake Quality
Organization and lhe town­
ship board are opposed lo
the slate's development of
the site, arguing that the
lake already is overused and
that adequate public acres*
exists.
Welty read Wilson's letter
requesting the meeting at
last week's meeting of the
township board.
Clerk Elinor Welty said
V'ilsoo's request "becomes
sort ofc m&lt;*&gt;t" because an
environmental assessment
of the proposal ia being re
quired. "We don't know
what is going to happen.'
snr said.
Welly noted that Wilson'*
letter »a* the first cmm-i
nication the board had re­
ceived from the DNR re­
garding possible joint ad
ministration of the site. He
ha* said that lite DNR has
only assumed Prairieville
would o«&gt;peratc in expan
skin of it* park and that he
first heard of the plan by
reading about it in a news-

asked and received
the board's permission to
"raise a mild comment" on a
statement in Wilson's teller
which said. "I promised in
earlier di*cu«*i--ns with you
that I would meet with lhe
township..."
To that remark. Welly
said. "I resent thi* kind of
tactic making reference* lo
previ-&gt;us conversations that
are n--nexi*tanl.“
I J--yd Goying*. chairman
of the township'* park com

mission, said be thought it
would be foolish not to
jniatly administer the rite if
its development is eventual
ly approved.
Otherwise, he *aid. lhe
DNR will operate the site
independently, without any
input from the township.
The parks commission has
gone on record in favor of
the additional access rite.
In other business, the
board voted unanimously lo
ratify a citizens advisory
vote to take its tax fight to
the Michigan Court of Ap
peal*.
The State Tax Tribunal
last month denied the ap

The engineering firm

because of legal difficulties,
and doubts about it* effect

Of the remaining three
approaches, the regional
hookup with Hastings was
found to be lhe lowest eoat
on sn annual basis. The
construction costs would be
much less than a lagoon

although annual operating
costs would be slightly high-

Under lhe regional plan,
the sewer main would go
east of State Rd. from the
south side of the lake. and.
connect with the Haotiags
system inside the city limits.
Two had application sitae

Calendar available for con­
sumers who want to know

“Certain consumer pro­
blems are seasonal,“ said
Executive Director Linda
Joy. “That's why we've de­
signed this calendar. Each
month describes a particular
consumer problem and gives
an appropriate phone num­
ber local! for assistance. For
example, many consumers
have trouble making ends
meet right after lhe holi­
days. That's why January
tells about our brochure.
“What to Do Whm You
Can't Pay Your Bills?
“Many consumers don’t
realize they can call toll-free
to some government agen
cie* for help with certain
problems," Joy added.
"We've included as many of
thos numbers as possible in

Public Hearing On

Project

Lake Sewer Systems
More than 100 peoplemostly from the townshipsturned out for the public
hearing Thursday on pro­
posed plana to bring sewer
systems to four area lakes,
and lie some of them into
the City of H*.*tings sewer
sysierm.
The main presentation
was made by Gary Arnold,
of the consulting firm of
Capitol Associates. Lansing,
who used a slide present ation to outline the sewer
proposals for Thornapple.
Algonquin, Middle and
Ixsch l^ikes.
Arnold reviewed some of
the criteria under which the
proposals were made, then
went through the possible
plans for the four lakes.
These proposals were des
ciibed iu detail in the Mon
day. Jan. 16 edition of The
Hastings Banner.
Arnold's firm reached the
conclusion that each area
has two possible alter­
native* which are cost­
effective for solving possible
pollution problem*.
THORNAPPLE LAKEThe recommended solutions
are a “treatment and di*
charge” system, which
would treat aewage in lag­
oons and dump it in the
spring and fall to the Thorn
apple River, and community
septic tanks-large septic
tanks which each treat a
group of homes.
ALGONQUIN LAKE

RONALD ARMOUR was

Cost effective solutions are
the “regional” system, which
would connect the more
populated portions of ihe
lake area to the Hastings
city system, and “land ap­
plication,” which means
spraying aewage c-n Gelds of
growing crops to treat it.
MIDDLE LEACH LAKE
AREA Connecting the sys
tern to Hastings or using the
community septic lank ap­
proach would be the two
most cost effective solutions,
Arnold's report said.
Arnold also presented
proposed costs of the var­
ious systems, which he said
were based on fall 1977
construction costs, ind their
operation. Depending on
area, the monthly user costs
could be a* much a* $20 for
Tliornapple Imke residents.
$30 in the la-ach-Middle
Lake area, and $40 on Algon­
quin Lake.
A short presentation of a
related City of Hastings
study was summarized by
Glen Klopfer of the dty's
engineering firm. Jones A
Henry Engineers Ltd.
Klopfer noted that most of
the city already has ad­
equate sewers, but that
several small sections are
still on septie tanks. These
areas include the Cook Add­
ition »n the southwest, the
High St. neighborhood be­
tween Michigan and Broad­
way. Indian Hills, East Rail
mad St., and a few homes

along Shriner St.
A few other sewer lines
should be replaced to carry
larger volune, Klopfer said,
and a portion of the oldest
part of the system apparent­
ly has river water entering
it during wet times of the
year.
The city sewer plant,
which was upgraded jual a
few yean ago, is fully ad­
equate to meet the needs of
the city and the possible
additional load from the
townships. Klopfer said.
However, a $40,650 system
should be added to it to
remove phosphorous, he
said.
More than a doran
people-all of whom ident­
ified themselves as lake area
residents or property ownera-asked questions and
made statements after the
formal presentations.
Several Algonquin Lake
residents said that tests
showed their lake is relative
ly pure, and they felt a
sewer system is not needed.
Cliff Morris, who lives on the
north side of the lake, said
that Algonquin Lake is test­
ed weekly, and there has
been no evidence found that
it is polluted by sewage from
A woman who also lives at
Algonquin said that she had
had the water tested in front
of her property and found
that it was not being pol
luted.
Bob Miller, a Hastings
resident who also has prop­
erty e' Leach Lake, de
plored the fact that statistics
on Leach Lake pollution
were not up-to-date. Tm in
favor of pure water, but I'm
disappointed that your fig­
ures are so old,” he said.
Arnold explained that no
studies had been made on
the lake since the late six­
ties, and '.hat extensive test­
ing is very expensive.
Rex Fisher, who lives
near Thornapple Lake, had
several questions on the
Thornapple Lake plan. Fiaher noted that he had just
built his house recently, and
has a new, efficient septic
tank system. He questioned
why he should have to tie
into a new sewer system
when he has his own system
which is operating well.
Several question* were
made -m how charge* would
be computed and financing
done. Arnold answered that
t here were several different
methods, and the township
bxrd* would make these
decisions if they decided to
go ahead with the plana.

SPOTLIGHT ON EDUCATION

Talk To Your Children When

They Bring Home Report Cards
January
mark*
the
begin­
ning of a new year, th* seed catalogs start to
sinve. and the first semester of school ends
with exam* and report card*
The report card is just one of several way*
teachers communicate with student* and
parents After the report card leave* the
teacher, and ta examined by th* Mudc.it and
by the parent, several possible reactions may
result
The student may be happy, relieved,
dmappointed. scared, or frustrated The
parent, too. may be happy or disappointed.
In tune cases even anger may be aroused.
Communication at this point will taka
place between the student and the parent
Will it be critical or host**? WW it be fair or
tolerant? W.II it provide encouragement?
Being able to talk to your chM in a way that
Miows you want to understand thex puuit uf
view is very important
Your child is special His need* are unique
becausu there « no other person Uke him in
the whole world. The following fast of do'*
and don't* may be helpful:
1. Don't downgrade your child about
weaknesses
2. Do talk about their strength* and
realistically approach and weaknesses.
3 Do bo available lor assistance, encour­
agement. and underetanong.
4. Don't stop the tone of communication by
saying. "You're making a lot of fuss about
nothing."
5 Do beten and try to see the problem

from their point of wew.
0. Don't be sarcastic.
7. Do encourage talking thing* over and
trying to reach some kind of understanding.
Being a student is not easy Being a parent
is not easy Being good at either one is even
harder II you can keep the communication
lines open, the reward* wet be worth ad tfw
time and effort.
If you feel you'd like to talk to your child's
teacher, give the school a call and make an
appointment Teachers, like parents, want
the best for "their " cMdron Sometimes a
one-to-one conference can be very helpful.
Report cards are the yearsticks used to
report progress. They are only as good as the

Prairieville Reels Under Mock Disaster
by Elalac Gflbert
Saturday may have seem
cd like an ordinary winter
day to most Harry County
residents, but that was not
the case in Prairieville
Township.
•More than two feet of
snow paralyzed the area,
cl.^ing all major and secor.dard roads, inv.uding M 43.
This was just the begin
ning of the scenerio which
was to unfold in the mock
disaster staged in the town
ship as an exercise in em
ergency preparedness
Saturday was not a rout­
ine type of day for this
correspondent either. Ac­
cording to plan, the weight
of the snow was more than
the roof of the township hall
could withstand.
And al 8:30 a.m.. my
interview with Supervisor
Joel Welty was cut short as
the ceiling and supportive
steel girders of the metal
building collapsed around us
and on lop of us
A» a recruited victim for

the simulated emergency. I
had more than I bargained

The typewritten card
given to me when 1 arrived
al the hall that morning said
my role in the exercise
(besides reporting.* was lo
be a victim with head injur­
ies. several fractured ribs, a
possible back injury, and
hemoraging from cars and
nose.
“How can I manage lo
take any photos of this event
if I'm in that condition?" I
thought.
Welthy's card merely said
that as a victim he would
have a compound fracture of
the left tibia.
"How did you get off so
easy?" I asked. He laughed
and shrugged his shoulders.
“Il must have something
to do with the spoils sys­
tem." I said in jest.
(Later,
however,
I
changed my mind about that
remark when I was being
transported lo a makeshift
hospital in the warm comfort

of an ambulance and Welty
was being hauled lo the
same place in the back of a
pick up truck.)
There were eight “vic­
tims" in lhe township hall
when the mock tragedy
struck. Township Police
Chief Dennis Ihirdy was lhe
first lo arrive al lhe scene.
The action that followed was
a well synchronized co
ordination of all the town
ship's emergency services.
A purpose of the drill-a
first for the township was to
lest the effectiveness of the
functions of each service in
the event of an actual disast-

Called to duty for the
exercise, in addition to the
police department, were the
township's central dispatch
office. Pine Lake Fire De­
partment. Citizens Em
ergency Response Team
(CERT), and the BPOH Am
bulance.
There were a number of
obstacles incorporated into
the mock disaster drama for
lhe participants to cross.
For instance, when the

ambulance crews arrived al
the township hall, treatment
of the injured was hampered
by debris which had to be
removed wit h “p»rta power"
equipment and assistance
from the firemen and CERT
members.
Since the damaged build­
ing was without power, the
ambulance rrrd had to work
without the benefits of elect­
ricity. But that didn't ham­
per their efficiency.
After a preliminary exam­
ination of the injured (read
ing the typewritten cards of
each victim), crews scurried
bark and forth from the
ambulance into the hall,
filling the ro«m with medical
supplies and equipment.
Because of the extent of
my injuries, an ambulance
attendcnl was back al my
side immediately.
Treat the others first." 1
said not to be a martyr
really, but only lo have a
chance to lake a few artinn
photos for news coverage of
the event.
Reluctantly, he agreed
and I grabbed my camera

and focused in on my fellow
victims.
Marcia Decker, playing
the role of ''hysterical
secretary." was being treat­
ed for a broken right arm.
Others receiving treat­
ment included Angie Little
whose head seemed to be
engulfed with bandages, and
JoAnn Daly who suffered
possible back injuries. An­
other victim had imaginary
metal protruding from his
chest.
As soon as I had placed
my camera back in its case,
the drill look on a different
dimension for me.
A cervical collar was in­
stantly plated around my
neck by an ambulance at
lendent. Hsing the log roll
technique, three attendents
then put me on a wooden
back board. Sand bags were
then placed around my head
and neck. I was told, to keep
me as nnmttbdi- as possible
to prevent movement which
copld cause further damage.
Covered with a blacket
and strapped to the back
lk&gt;ard. I was ready to be
transported to a hospital.
However, the police chief
and ambulance personnel Ifa
accordance with the script)
had determined that travel
to Pennock Hospital in Hast­
ings was impossible because
of severe road conditions. So
. they had recommended
that a temporary hospital be
set up at the township's Pine
lake Fire station where
CERT members were busy
putting up rots and getting
out blankets.
I was grateful that the 10
minute ambulance ride to
the fire station on Lindsey
Road was uneventful a
chance for us victims lo
catch our hreath.
Meanwhile, a local phy­
sician was en route via
snowmobile lo the temp
orary hospital where he
would treat us until we could
later be transported to Pen
nock when road conditions
improved.
Other emergency person­
nel were busy taking care of
other problems which had
been interjected in the mock
disaster script: solving the
problem of the breakdown of
the CB radio in the dispatch
office which meant finding
someone to act as a temp
orary CB base for com
municat tons between the

acene and the dispatch of­
fice; coping with stalled
snowmobiles; and locating
an emergency generator to
provide electrical power at
the temporary hospital.
By about 10 a.m.. ail
victims (which now, accord
ing lo the script, included an
injured CERT volunteer)
had been transported to the
temporary hospital, and
were snug in thnr cola.
The backboard I had been
placed upon seemed to be
harder that it was an hour
ago. 1 was beginning lo
'vlieve that I did indeed
have back and head injuries.
I decided I could alleviate
some of the discomfort to my
Msd by sneaking a sandbag
to use for a pdlow. (Wish !
had thought of that earlier).
A cert volunteer asked if
she could do anything to
help make us more comfort­
able. “Yes,- several of us
responded. "Find our cigar­
ettes and an ash tray."
Al 10:15. we heard the
dispatch coordinator say the

meaning everything is ()Kthe exercise had ended.
Over coffee and donuts,
participants tn the tnock
disaster set around a table
at the fire station to critique
the drill.
Mike Norton.
Harry
County's difense director
who had been asked lo
observe the mock disaster,
said "It was an eicellent
exercise."
In the event of an actual
severe snow storm which
could shut down an entire
county. Norton told the
group that "People on a local
level have to make sure they
can help themselves first.
You’ve done it. You have
completed your task as you
are. as far as I'm concerned,
able to mainlain until we
(county services) can gel to
you and you do an excellent

job at that."
Norton, who became civil
defense director in October,
said the exercise show him
“sdome of the things I need
lo do county wide."
"You people tin Prairie­
ville) are taking great steps.
No other township around Is
doing anything. I would just
love to have this (mock
disasters) take place in all of
our townships so we could
gri prepared,” he said
Norton also praised the
turnout of volunteers. “Hav
ing 35 to 40 people show up
and take part in an exercise
is great." he said.
He suggested several
ideas to improve the scope of
emergency preparedness,
such as training in Medical
Self-Help whim assumes
that a doctor will never be
available.
Robert Barton, dispatch
coordinator, and Dan Hale.
CERTs chief of operations,
were instrumental in plan
ning the mock disaster.
"For the first lime we've
all been engaged in an
activity together lei alone a
mock disaster ! think things
went relatively well." Bar
ton said
Hale said. There are
kinks we re going to have lo
woik out. them no doubt
about it. but I’m happy."
He called the CERT vol
unlcers a "superdedicated
group and said the exercise
proved that CERT can light
en the l&lt;&gt;ad of the regular
emergency services.
CERT operates as a police
reserve unit, working
directb under the authority
of the township's police
chief. Ils primary function is
to be prepared to augment

of an actual disaster, the

Barton and Hale helped
organise CERT shortly after
the January. 1W7 blizzard
when they realized a need
existed for sueh an organ
izatioa.
During that blizzard. the
two men were leaders of an
ad hoc committee which
assisted several hundred
snowbound residents in
wouthwesl Barry County
with deliveries of fuel. food,
medicine, etc.
Police chief Purdy said
Saturday's mock disaster
plans “destroyed some of my
nightmares of having to
handle a disaster. It means I
don't have to go lo a scene
and organize the whole thing
from scratch."
Supervisor Welly said.
"I'm really pleased and
proud of Prairieville because
of the turnout and enthus­
iasm."
He also acknowledged the
help and participation from
citizens of other townships.
"If a real disaster hila
sometime. the training that
we're doing now and that we
will be doing from lime lo
tune is going to aave fives."
Welty said.
When is the next tnock
disaster? Well, that is going
to be a surprise. A..d, it
might be a tornado or even a
nuclear attack.

Scientific ond tectmological advancement* have
brought about an accelerated pace of life. The
world wide communication system that television has
brought about keeps up momentarily informed of
world happenings Styles of dress, social customs,
methods of transportation, and means of supplying
energy have changed. I'm sure the older folks can sou
the groat differences more readily than others.
With this in view, some have advocated that our
reiioious and moral views are tiehind times The cry
has gone out. "The Bible is out of date! The Gospel
was OK for ignorant people of years ago. but we need
standards to fit our culture and enl&gt;ghtened agel"
Actually the new rn afrty cs just the old immorality in
modern garb.
There are some things that never change. It has

A letter from Cameron appears in the

Cameron makes the point, in his letter,

and trade, and could afford little proviriori for
retirement. Yet their social security benefit
may be less than those who were employed
by other*, and they don't qualify for
unemployment.
It's a good pont. and one that Congreaa
should consider, along with a lot of problem*
of the riderty.

Speaking of the elderly- in years if not in
spirit-we're glad to see favorable action In
the Michigan legislature on a bill to prohibit
mandatory retirement. For once, our so call
ed "liberal" legislature is domg something to
extend and improve the freedom of the
■ndrwdual.
Some folks may be "reedy" for retirement
at 55. Others may be reedy at 75. Others not
until they are physically unable to work.
We have tong thought that more flexibility
should be allowed when it comes to
retirement. A birthday is a very arbitrary and
unfair measure of a parson's ability to
continue working. And we al know people
who mentaly and even physicaly detenorat ■
ed soon after they retire, because they
missed their work

Not tn many years ago
mothers took their children

suffering from childhood dis­
ease*. such as rubella and
mump*, believing that get­
ting certain diseases during

ion in later life.
"We know today that
many 'childhood diseases'
esn be dangerous to young
children. You can protect
them from dangers by bring­
ing them to the Health
Department immunicalion
Clinic. Barry-Eaton Health
Department personnel said.
They suggest parents re­
view their children's immun­
ization record, and those
who are unsure that the
youngsters are up to date
should eheck with their doc­
tor or the Health Depart­
ment.
A clinic will be help Mon

Q. I’ve been told that
people who get social sec­
urity benefits may be elig­
ible for SSI payments, too.
Does this mean that a per­
son has to be eligible for
social security in order to
get SSI pay menu?
A. No. A person may be
eligible fur SSI payments
even if he or she has never
worked under social secur­
ity. Hu*, people car. get both
social security benefits and
SSI payments if they arc
eligible for both.
Q. My father has no
income of his own. and I’ve
been trying to get him to file
for SSI payments since he
was 65 several month ago.
He’s finally agreed to apply.
If he's eligible, will he get
payment. back to the month
he reached 66?
A. No. SSI payments can­
not be made for any months
before an application is filed.
An application is effective
only for the month it is filed
and later months. If your
father thinks he is eligible
for SSI. be should apply
immediately at any social
security office.
The Banner, in cooperat­
ion with the Social Security
Administration, is publish

�THE HASTINGS BANNER. Wednesday. February I. |'i7H, p.

West Woodland
by Victor SiMoe
Upon inquiring for news
Monday, moat of those I
called replied. "Yes. Snow.
Snow. Snow." and we've had
U. starting with Wednesday
afternoon and continuing
through Friday. The papers
have been full of it. the radio
haa told it (ar and wide, and
the TV ha* *hown picture*
of it, probably nation wide.
Described aa the "worst in
history." and "one of the
worst," th* blizzard which
covered Ohio, Indiana, Ill­
inois and Michigan has been
the subject of cnnveraallon
everywhere and well omit
the statistics, etc., and just
concentrate briefly on the
local effect* of the storm.
We have not heard of any
death* locally attributed to
the storm but it was the
kind-the strong, cold wind
that cau.es heart attack*,
and that add* perceptibly to
the difficulty of walking
through tbe blowing, drift­
ing snow and we are grateful
that we don't have any such
tragedies to report.
Friday mo-ning during
the very worst part of the
storm, Mr*. Don McLeod,
who Uvea about a half mile
north of us, called to tell us
that a man had just gone
past her house on foul, going
south and she suggested
that we watch him and see if
he passed our house safely.
She evidently was thinking
of what might happen to
him.The visibility was very
poor with the air full of snow
and a strong, bitter west
wind blowing it in several
direction* at once.
It wasn't long until the
form of a man appeared in
the road near the gravel
pde. He moved along slowly,
taking a few step*, then
•topping lor a few moments,
apparently to catch his
breath and get courage and
strength to take the neat

few steps into the deep,
unbroken snow. Aa he pass­
ed our house, we opened the
door and called to him.
asking him if he didn't want
to come in out of the storm.
Whether he was abto to hear
or the wind took our word*
on past him. we have no way
of knowing, but he just gave
us a flick of tbe hand and
kept on going. We watched
the warmly dad young man
until he disappeared tn th*
storm to the south. We'd Ilk*
to know who th* brave
traveler was and if he reach­
ed his destination safely.
There are many interest­
ing stories we have heard In
connection with this stornr
but we can refer to only a
few. It is often said that
something like thia lends to
bring tbe very best out of a
pe r »o n and it is at s uc n time*
that one really learn* what
good neighbors be baa. we
can surely say that baa
proven true in our case, aad
Fm sure many other* can
say the same. Omiting
names to avoid embarrass
ing anyone.
We had several telephone
calls from near neighbor*.
»«&gt;me a but farther away and
some aa far away aa 15
miles, and, wording It a bit
differently perhaps in each
caae, this has been the
message, "If there's any­
thing you need, groceries or
whatever.*! any lime, just
call us. day or night, and
well get it for you as quickly
as we can.” Those are beaut­
iful words under such cir­
cumstance*! Due to tbe faet
that our children and grand­
children looked after us so
beautifully we didn't have to
call oc these good neighbor*
for very much. But it t* so
nice to know they are “a*
near as your telephone" if
you do need them.
Several in this area work
nights in nearby cities and

some of them had rather
harrowing experiences.
They went to work last
Wednesday afternoon, leav­
ing their home*, and fnmilles. little dreaming they
would not be able to get
back home soon after their
eight-hour shift was finish

Some of them did make it
a few hours later than usual.
One who ia accustomed to
reaching horn.* shortly after
midnight, traveled a onelane highway, bucking drifts
and being unable to see the
road al all a part of the lime
and got home nearly an hour
and a half late. Another one
had to abandon his car in a
ditch several mile* from
home, lake refuge in the
home of a neighbor, call his
family to tell them when he
was and remain as "guest"
until the storm ended and be
could get a ride home by
tractor.
On*, a young lady, was
two day* getting hoaae from
her work in Hasting*. One
man due home early Thurs­
day morning bad tn abandon
hl* car and reached home
Saturday evening, making
the last mile or so on fool
through hip deep snow. And
we could go on and on.

share with them and the
little folks in tbe family have
had enough to eat. Another
example of the good neigh­
bor spirit.
We were very fortunate
to have our road (Martin)
opened for traffic so soon.
Early Saturday morning one
of our neighbors with a
blade on his tractor opened
up a part of Jordan Road and
our mile of Martin Road lu
M-43. A little later another
neighbor with a tractor
came and cleaned out our
drivtway. And before the
day waa over, a county plow
went through both waya and
traffic became almost nor­
mal by Monday morning.
Perhaps to top It all. one
neighbor, knowing of Mrs.
Sisson's Alness, called and
offered to share hi* heart
medicine (the same kind she
is taking) with her. if she
needed it.
Miss Mary Lynn Flewner
returned to Marion College.
Marion. Ind., last Wed
nesday to resume her stud
ies after a vacation at her
heme here since before
Chris' ma*. Besides skiing in
northern Michigan and
many other activities she
enjoyed a rather extensive
western trip.
Leaving here on Dec. 26,
Mary Lynn and her brother
Douglas, flew to the West
Coast, where they visited
their cousin*. Mr. and Mrs.
David (Lisa Fle*»nerl Dun
bar at Pasadena. Calif. From
there they wsat to Denver,
Colo., where they visited •
school friend of Mary
Lynn's. Then to Tucson.
Artz., where they were
guests of their aunt, Mrs.
Vernon Van Ooslerhout.
From there Douglas flew
home and Mary Lynn rode
with some friend* to Hous
ton. Texas, where ahe spent
a week with friends of the
family.
A highlight of the trip for
Mary Lynn, who is further­
ing her training as a nurse,
was a visit to a number of
large hospitals In the variou*
cities where she visited.
We are informed that
Mrs. Patty Hurt, who re­
sides on Bayne Road west of
Martin Road, suffered a
heart attack at her home
Sunday. Bayne Road is not a
heavily traveiled road and
the now plow had not been
on it since the storm last
week. The Road Commies
loo, notified of tbe etner
gency. dispatched a plow to
open the road. Th* prow got
stuck and a wrecker had to
be called to pull it out.
law enforcement officers
and an ambulance were on
theacene and at last Mrs.
Hurt was removed to Pen­
nock Hospital. Then the
truck proceed* ' to dear out
Martin Rom? N-.r. north and
south of Martin but waa able
to go only part way in each
direction because of thr
drift*.
Mr. and Mr*. Carter Si*
•on of Hastings were Sun­
day evening visitors of their
parent*. Mr. aad Mr* Victor
Staaon. The later h*d a
'elephooe eall that evening
from her brother and wife.
Mr. and Mrs. Myron Carter
of Huntington. Ind., and
again they were enjoying
about the same kind of
weather we are having in
Michigan. Things had been
at a standstill in the Hoosier
aince last Wednesday.
Streets had not been plowed
out. schools were closed and
would be over Monday at
least, most business plarea
cfosed, no mail in or out of
the dty. and all other con
dittoes that the worst bliz
sard ever to visit tbe alate.
Roy Norton wa* ret urned
to his home Saturday after
spending a week in Pennoek
Hospital.Ironically, when
they brought Roy home
from the hospital, they left
one of hi* legs there aad the
missing member waa not
ret rived until Monday morn­
ing so he wa* not able to be
"up and about" until l»ter
that day. Hia many friends
are glad that he la feeling

Court Voids Barry’s
Housing Commission
Allegan Probate Judge
George A. Greig, acting as
Circuit Court judge here
Thursday. Feb. 2. declared
the ordinance creating the
Harry County Housing Com­
mission invalid because it
had not been legally adopted
by a two-third* majority of
tbe Board of Commissioners
last July 12.
Judge Greig last month
had signed a temporary
restraining order prevent­
ing the continued operation
of the Housing Commission
until the hearing was held on
the merits of the rase.
The suit again*! the Board
of Commissioner* and the
Housing Commiaafon was
brought by Mrs. Ethel Bote
of Baltimore Township
through the law firm of
Smith &amp; Maher of Charlotte.
The ordinance was passed
last July by a vote of seven
in favor of the measure, one
vote against it. one abstent­
ion and tow commissioners
were absent.
The commission was
created by the county board
(or the development of lowincome housing, and federal
funds are understood to be
available fur construction of
housing.
Many senior citizens, in­
terested in low cost housing,
attended the hearing Thur*
day.
Atty. David L. Smith rep
resented Mrs.Bote Thurs­
day and Prosecuting At­
torney Gary R. Holman rep­
resented the commission­

ers and Housing Com­
mission.
Judge Greig said that
under Michigan law per
taming to the power* and
procedures of a county
board, approval of eight
commissioners of an II man
board is required for adopt
ion.
Pruaculor Holman argued
that the restraining order
should be disolved citing a
different state law which he
Mid supported his content
ion that the board could
establish the Housing Com
mission without reference to
other statutes.
Judge Greig also rejected
the contention that Mr*.
Bote lacked the standing at
law to question the validity
of the ordinance because she
had not suffered any actual
injuries. Judge Greig said a
eii izen doe* have the right to
question of action of elected
represent al ive*. and that in
this case a controversy did
exist. The ro.- said II
doesn't follow that a citizen
should have to wail for
actual damages to result
before questioning a gover­
nmental action.
Judge Greig said he had
no chrice but to declare the
ordinance invalid. Greig Mid
the court found that the
enabling statute for the en­
actment of a Housing Com
mission didn't eliminate the
necessity for following prop­
er procedure* by county
boards. The la* made no
specific reference that the

general rule* of procedure
could be waived, and the
board docs not have any
powers not conferred by the
legislature or constitution.
Judge Greig said that the
fact that the passage was
only one vote short may not
sound too bad. but when one
looks at what one vole
represents, it means a group
of people, that a large group
of people may not have been
heard.
Judge Greig said th*court
grants the relief sought by
Mr*. Boxe and the Barry
County Board of Com­
missioner* snd Housing
G-mmis*i-‘ner* are perman
enily enjoined from enforc
ing the ordinance in quest
ion. Because it was a public
question, there were no
court costs assessed to
either party.

Dr. Stephen Loftus, chair­
man of the Barry County
Red Cross, aaya that he is
going to periu&gt;r.ally head thia
year's March campaign for
members and funds
"This a critical time in the
life of your Rod Cross.”
ixiflus said. "We have an
extremely tight, cost effect
ive budget that requires us
to raise 13,000 during the
March Campaign in order to
stay ia the Hack. If we can
do that for the next three
years, and other factors
remain I he same, we should
be financially out of hot
waier by 1WS0."
Loftus, who is entering his
second year as chapter
chairman, says that he is
committing the extra time
needed to make the camp
sign go"We had a 20% increase in
March campaign funds last
year, but that icpresented a
rise from approximately MO
t&lt;&gt; 11000 in collected monies.
We just nave to do better
this year."
Loftus said that one pro
blcm is the chapter Financial
base, with most of the funds
coming from the Hastings
Area Community Fund.
"They made a special ef­
fort on our behalf this year,
and we are grateful. But the
Hastings Area Community
Fund represents only about
25% of the Barry County
population. Sure, our office
is in Hastings. That's a
central location But Red
Cr»M serves all of Barry
County. We need help from
Freeport. Middleville. Nash
ville and Delton if we are
going to make ends meet."
Loftus said

Court Voids Barry’s
Housing Commission
Allegan Probate Judge
George A. Greig, acting as
Circuit Court judge here
Thursday. Feb. 2. declared
the ordinance creating the
Harry County Housing Com­
mission invalid because it
had not been legally adopted
by a two-thirds majority of
the Board of Commissioners
last July 12.
Judge Greig last month
had signed a temporary
restraining order prevent­
ing the continued operation
of the Housing Commission
until the hearing was held on
the merits of the rase.
The suit against the Board
of Commissioners and the
Housing Commission was
brought by Mrs. Ethel Bote
of Baltimore Township
through the law firm of
Smith &amp; Maher of Charlotte.
The ordinance was passed
last July by a vole of seven
in favor of the measure, one
vole against it. one abstent­
ion and tow commissioners
were absent.
The commission was
created by the county board
(or the development of lowincome housing, and federal
funds are understood to be
available for construction of
housing.
Many senior citizens, in­
terested in low cost housing,
attended the hearing Thur*
day.
Atty. David L. Smith rep
resented Mrs.Bote Thurs­
day and Prosecuting At­
torney Gary R. Holman rep­
resented the commission­

ers and Housing Com­
mission.
Judge Greig said that
under Michigan law per
tuning to the power* and
procedures of a county
board, approval of eight
commissioners of an II man
board is required for adopt
ion.
Pruaculor Holman argued
ll&gt;ai the restraining order
should be disoived citing a
different state law which he
said supported his content
ion that the board could
establish the Housing Com
mission without reference to
other statutes.
Judge Greig also rejected
the contention that Mr*.
Bote lacked the standing at
law to question the validity
of the ordinance because she
had not suffered any actual
injuries. Judge Greig said a
eii izen doe* have the right to
question of action of elected
representatives, and that In
this case a controversy did
exist. The co .- said II
doesn't follow that a citizen
should have to wall for
actual damages to result
before quest inning a gover­
nmental action.
Judge Greig said he had
no ehrice but to declare the
ordinance invalid. Greig said
the court found that the
enabling statute for the en­
actment of a Housing Com
mission didn't eliminate the
necessity for folkwing prop­
er procedure* by county
boards. The la* made no
specific reference that the

general rules of procedure
could be waived, and the
board docs not have any
power* not conferred by the
legislature or constitution.
Judge Greig said that the
fact that the passage was
only one vote short may not
sound too bad. but when one
looks at what one vole
represents, it means a group
of people, that a large group
of people may not have been
heard.
Judge Greig said the court
grants the relief sought by
Mr*. Boze and the Barry
County Board of Com­
missioner* snd Housing
Commissioners are perman
milj enjoined from enforc
ing the ordinance in quest
ion. BecauM it was a public
question, there were no
court costs assessed to
either party.

"Lata get back to the basics." Thia has
been the cry of many people in recent years
Just what are the basics in education? Some
people see the basics aa the 3 R’a that --.ere
learned in the one-room school of the last
century; AND the method of drill, practice,
and memorization used to learn them
There is no doubt that the essential
basics are reading, 'citing. and 'rithmetic.
Modern education still emphasizes them.
They were never lorgotien What has
changed is the method of teaching the
basics Education has atways been concern
ed with the efficient teaching of young
people. Today, however, there are many
ways to approach the learning of basic sidle.
Basic skid learning ia hard work for
young children. Today's educators of the
HEA have realized that more learning may
come, for example, from pattern recognition
in word games than from continuous
memorization of vocabulary or spelling lists.
The goal a Sts to help a student gain higher
levels of learning, develop greater technical
proficiency, and acquire a more precise and
effective way of communicating
The teachers of the Hastings Education
Association realize that technical skills are
not the only ones young people need to
learn Our schools are one of the best pieces
for youngsters to learn sooai sk«s that w«
help them live their private and public kvea
successfully. Most importantly, basic akffls
also Include lhe techniques gained thet
enable a young person to learn how to learn
and how to live most effectively.
H you want to help your child toward a

richer and more meaningful education that
we be j foundation for life-long learning,
here are a tow things the Hastings Education
Association suggests you can do:
1. Look for ways in which you can
suppod reading, spelling, and otlier language
arts instruction by playing sound end word
games with young cMdrsn. having them
look for objects--indoors or during wafts or
rides-whose names begin wrth the same
sounds.
2. Let younq people use their computat­
ional skill* by helping with the shopping.
Encourage them to be aware of prices and
weights and measures. Let them compare
prices and measures of similar products.
3. Encourage young people to recognize
the relation of good writing to deer thinking.
Help them to understand that even on such a
spoken medium as television, writing is an
Important factor In the production of a
program ot movie
4. Help your chMran to learn how to
learn by encouraging them to devw'sp good
research skills at home, in the public library,
and in other places where records ere kept.
5. Help your children understand the
social experiences of school and community,
so that they may derive a constructive
meaning even from those incidents that they
may not tu*y understand. Remember that
social learning is the most effective way for
us to maintain the basic values on which our
country was founded, and that it Is the
responsibility of young people and adults
alike to maintain those values

OPEN IXTTER TO PAR
ENTS OF TEENAGERS
WHO Wild. RE TAKING
DRIVERS EDUCATION:
To legally drive a car on
lhe road prior to the stud­
ents 18th birthday, the stud­
ent mu»t be at least 15 and
have passed the driver ed
course provided by the local
school system.
Hastings Area Public
School provides a driver
education course which re­
quires studeaU to attend 90
hours of classroom work, 10
hours of driving and obser­
ving on a driving rang* and
four, four hour sessions of
on-the road driving and ob­
servation (Drive one hourobserve three).
The minimum state re­
quirements are 90 hours of
claasrnrmi urarh and six
hours of on the road driving
or its equivalent. This means
that lhe student has to be in
attendance and sueceaafully complete those require­
ments in order for lhe school
to issue a certificate.
We offer two aessiona of
the driver cd program dur­
ing the summer so that
families can also gel other
planned summer activities
in. We cannot please every­
one in our selection of dates
for the session so hopefully,
if you know the dates you
can plan your activltiea and
vacations around them. Be­
cause of state laws, we
expect the student to be in
attendance every day. Two
xlisences for illness ut some
other important reason are
allowed. For example, the
day a student has to show
livestock dunng fair week
h« is excused. Please do not
plan, if at all possible, long
week ends where the stud­
ents will be absent on Friday
and or Monday. Because it is
known that driver education
is very important in the
development of the young
driver, please help us by
impressing that importance
upon your student and plan
y&lt;&gt;ur activities around the
driver ed program for the 5
wreks that they will be
involved.
The students wdi be get
ling their application blanks
for summer driver ed after
spring vacation. Any stud­
ent in the district who will
be l« before March I. 1979
will be eligible to take the
driver ed course I his turn

mer. Last year over 360
students applied and about
300 of them desired to taka
it the first session. We only
have room for 180 studanla
per session so some students
who didn't have specific
definite reasons why they
needed the 1st session were
disappointed. We will sch­
edule by age if no reason Is
given. Parents are asked to
sign the application, so U you
have specific requests aa to
t.ne session and time please
make it known.
The 1st session will be
from Monday. June 12th, to
Friday. July 14th, with the
State license Bureau tests
bring riven Tuesday, July
18th. We will have classes on
Saturday. June 14th to make
up for not holding class on
July 4th. No other Saturday
will be required. Th» 2nd
session will be from Mondsy.
July 10th to Friday. August
Uth. The Secretary of Stale
tests will be held on Thurs
day. Aug. 10th.
The classroom will meet
for I'A hours for lhe first
four weeks ot each session.
Classes will be held from
8.-00 to 9:30. 9:40 to 11:10
and from 11J0 to 12:60. The
Range wOI meet lor ooe hour
every other day either be­
fore or after class during the
same length of time. The on
the road driving ph aw will
begin the 2nd week and the
student will be involved for
4 hours, one afternoon a
week. Il will be lhe tame
afternoon each week.
Special consideration is
given to students who live
outside of the city limits
because of their need to
have transportation to and
from lhe High School. M
parents form car pools, the
students will be scheduled at
the same time. Please In­
form lhe Director of your
special needs.

TetbeEdker:
Several senior eitisens
have asked me what effect
the injurtion sought by Mrs.
Ethel Bose and the restrain­
ing order issued by Judge
Greig of Allegan County will
have on proposed low-rent
housing for the elderly in
Barry County.
The simplest answer is
that it will now be more
difficult to obtain the kind of
federal rent subsidies that
make possible the senior
rilixen complexes that exist
in many other Michigan
rounttes. The complexes to
which I refer are Public
Housing wherein no tenant
is required lo pay more than
twenty five percent of his or
her monthly income far mt.
In order to establish this
type of housing the com­
munity must establish a
Housing Gxnmission and
this ean only be done under
the ordinance to which Mrs.
Bose object s.
The Grand Rapids office of
the Department &lt;&gt;f Housing
and Urban Development has
repeatedly indicated lo me
that, in the past. Housing
Cimmisssms have been the
most successful applicants
for Rental Subsidy (Section
Eight) numies. and that
Barry County's ehaneee of
participating in such a pro­
gram would he enhanced by
action, aggressive Housing
Commission
Il is my observation that
the appointed Qimmiaaion of
Mrs. Wolf and Messrs,
Pierce. McPharlin, Squier
and Pennock were doing a
superb job of preparing
Harry Giunty for eligibility.
They had sought out sites,
interviewed architects, dis
russed preliminary plans, ail
things that must be done
before applaeatiofl can be
made Thu was accomplish
ed without any root lo the
county and none of them
were remunerated tn any
way. They deserve to be
commended for real nublte
service under difficult cir­
cumstances.
What now?
These same public spirit-

eu people will act *» an
advisory committee to the
County Board and will pur­
sue other avenues. There is
the porability of funds being
made available to private
mm profit foundations. HUD
indicates that they must
already be in existence and
not formed simply for the
purpose of applying for rent •
a) subsidies.
In the past rental subsidy
guarantees have been avail­
able to private developers.
It is my understanding,
based on information from
the Michigan Stale Housing
Development Authority,
that no such funds are
presently obtainable for
Barry County.
Mrs. Bose and her assoc
iate, Mrs. Sue Carrigan,
have both indicated that
there are private developers
wno nave access to federally
guaranteed rental subsides,
and who can. therefore,
build the kind of complex
envisioned by the former
Housing Commission.
To my knowledge, such
deve! mers have not made
application to HUD. or lo
any other agency operating
in this area.
If this office can be of
assistance to such develop
rn. or to Mrs Bora or Mrs
Carrigan in any effort lo
bring rental subsidy housing
far the elderly to the county,
we will be happy lo help.
Our major concern ia that
the monies for such purpose,
budgeted for this fiscal year,
will go to other counties and
existing housing com
missions. Barry County's
senior cil irons will be by­
passed because the mechan
:m to bring Public Housing
to the County does not exist.
Sincerely.

The Key To
Immortality
BY STAN CLANTON
Minister, Barry Ceusty
Church o&lt; Christ

A preacher of the gospel was talking with a very
teamed man of another reitgion. The preacher asked.
"Give me your conception of ■mmortar.ty" The reply
was. "The only immortakty there is ia the immortabty
of being remembered in the community ’’ Immortakty
to him was having one's name fore on to the
community! Sc it is with many.
Jesus taught that the soul of man fores after
death. For the redeemed chad of God there io "eternal
We" This comes because Jesus bore the penalty of
our am upon the cross and broke Satan's power of
rbwwMjh
5^ lEeetfo end resurrection
(Hebrews 2:14). Thus. Jesus "abolished death, and
brought life and immortality to light through the
goapei" (IITimothy 1:10). When the word of God is
preached and received and obeyed, Ihe soul of the
obedient one is regenerated and he is united with his
Saviour. This happens when one is baptUed Into
Christ (Galatians 127. Titus 3.5).
It e staggering to consider that the Christian
never dies spintuafly He w« live throughout eternity in
the presence of God. Jesus said. "If a man keep my
word, he shafl never see death" (John 8611 He toid
the thief or the cross who would soon dre phyeica8y.
"Today shaft thou bo with me in Paradree" (Luka
23:42)
Man has tong searched for the key to immortairty
He has tned to find the fountain of youth. He has tried
to prolong Me by medical technology He has sought
to create life m the laboratory But eternal Wo « found
only m Christ Jesus

CHANGING EXTENSION

4-H Developing New Programs To Meet Changing Needs of Youngsters
BY HUGH FULLERTON
First of a Serie*
New directions to meet
new need* is the way th*
Barry County Cooperative
Estensioa Service to going
these days.
'
The changes-oa th* whole
• are part of a trend slate
wide in the Extension Ser
vice, which hi been dev
eloping the pa* few year*.
Accelerating (hi c'tange* in
Harry County haa been the
fact that there haa been a
complete turnover in agents
in the past three year*.
The county at present has
three niensxon agents: Dut­
ts Richardson, who wear*
two hats as county family
living agent and county ex
tension director; Rod Ding
erson. county agriculture
agent, and Lucy Slinger,
county 4-H agent. Mr*. Rich
ardson say* that the county
may get another agent in the
foreseeable future.
So what'a new about all
that? A* far aa the poeilion*

A good example of a job in
transition ia that of Mias
Slinger, the 4-H agent.
4-H haa long been a main
stay of extension work in
Barry and many other
county. Moat everyone
know* about the 4-H kid*
who show their animals and
exhibit their handiwork at
the fair -something they
have been doing for decade*.'
Most everyone knows that
4-H ia traditionally organiz­
ed Into clubs-groups of
youngstera from » neighbor­
hood who meet together to
work on project* and trade
idea*, as well a* have some
fun.
Historically, there have
been two kind* of eiub*. and
Barry County haa both var­
ieties.
Many of the dub* are
"project" &lt;&gt;n*», organized for
the youngster* who have
project* tn the same field,
according to Mis* Slinger. In
Barry County, th* most
popular project dub* are
personal appearance (dothing). hoeaua. livestock and
dairy. But there are many
specialized dube tn other
area*, aa well.
The other type of dub to

dub. member* learn a wide
variety of thing*, sharing
one another's project».
In all. Barry ha* about 43
active dub*, based on last
year's figure*. It to too early
to tell how many will be
active thia year, as acme
have not organized for the
sea*m yet.
There are roughly 1.100
youngster* and 200 adult
leader* involved in th* 4-H

dub* in the eounly.
Although the competitive
aspects of 4 H work culmin
ating in the Barry County
Fair will continue to be an
important part of 4 H. new
program* are being develop
ed. Some have already been
introduced in the county,
and Mi»* Slinger h-pes more
will be rorning this year and
in the next few years.
Michigan, she notes, ha*
been ahead of most other
state* In developing new
directions for 4-H, to meet
new conditions. Farm fam
ilie* represent an eversmaller proportion of the
population, yet more and
more families are moving to
rural area*. Aa a result, 4-H
is looking to the need* of
youngster* who used to be
"town kid*", and have dif
ferent need* and interest*
from "farm kids."
Hence I he new t hrust *.
One of the early attempt*
to introduce a new 4-H
Cigram was the "Chai­
x' ' program, which Jim
Bristol organized m the
county a c»upte of years ago.

During the first weekend

County participants went
through the actual program.
During a second workshop
March 8, they will learn to
become facilitator*, to assist
other youngster* in the pro­
gram.
Mi** Slinger hope* to get
new leader* trained in the
Challenge program and get
it moving again, too. Foe the
short lime it was active, the
re«p&gt;-nM* waa terrific. »he
said.
Another gnal of Mis*
Slinger to to get a lien
service dub going again,
perhaps under a new name.
This would be
young­
sters 14 and older, and the
member* would decide what
kind* of act ivit les I hey want.
Mj*t of the new programs

ed as a 411 assistant. was an
outdoorsman. he was well
qualified to be a Challenge
leader. But th* qualification*
are high for the Challenge
leader*, and the program
faltered when Bristol left.
Moet of the newer pro­
grams. Mis* Slinger said,
are short term ones which
supplement, rather than re­
place. the traditional pro
jects and activities. A pro­
gram may last a few weeks,
a year, or a single weekend.
The youngsters participat­

may join just for a part ieular

many more activities exist
for teens than there were a
generation or I wo ago. But it
may be more pronounced
because the interests of
teens have changed, along
with the shift from rural to

Another feature of the
newer 4 H program* to that
they are not designed ex­
clusively for 4 II members.
Many of the programs can
lie pul on through other
youth orranixations and
agende*. such aa church and
*eh&lt;» I groups, social agent
iet and the like.
As a matter &lt;&gt;f fact. Miss
Slinger is already exploring
ways to extend the benefits
of 4-H to youth in other
group*. She and Mrs. Rich
ardson attend the monthly
Round TaMe of sgen-te* and
organisation* in the county
which deal with young p*&lt;&gt;
pie.
Another avenue of change
to greater u«e of many
traditional 4-H project*
which ar* as applicable to
town kids and rural ones.
Examples of these ar* per»&gt;na) appearance, all the
many craft areas, and wood­

Furnishing input to the
county 4-H program are
several committee* &gt;f 4-II

The state tests were given
the pupils as they began the

Every child in the stale
takes these math and read
ing tests which check their
mastery of basic skills in
these two special area.
"It gives u» an opport
unity t&lt;&gt; know what each
child knows at the start of
those school years," I,iwr
said. It also provides an

opportunity to check them
with the other children in
Michigan.
On th fourth grade read

The No. two &lt;4&gt;ject ive was
indicating phrases with the

students were 10 points
above the stale average of

L&gt;we explained that being
four points above or four

age are regarded as "sign
ificant."
There were about 300
fourth graders taking the

In the math evaluation.
Hastings fourth graders

explained that previously
the elementary and junior

The proposed ordinance to
raise Hastings city wa'er
and sewer rate* was turned
down Tuesday evening by
the Hastings City Council.
The surprise vote came
after a hearing which lasted
more than two hours, in
which nearly every speaker
opposed the rate increase.
Following the decision,
however, s-xne eity official*
were wring privately that
rate* will have u&gt; go upbut
perhaps not a* much a the
rejected ordinance had ant­
icipated.
Residents who earn* to
the hearing objected on var­
ious ground*, but the most
oft repealed argument was
that senkx citizen* and low
income people will be strap
ped by the sudden increase
in utility rates.
The rejected ordinance
would have doubled sewer
rates, and increased water
rate* by about 25 percent, to
raise an additional 1180.000
for the elty water and sewer
system.
The ordinance wa* reject­
ed by a vote of six to one.
and the only councilman
voting for it-Tom Robinson
said he was doing so "under
protest" Councilman Robert
Birke was absent.
The hearing opened with

CHANGING EXTENSION

Public Policies and Conservation Are “Growth Area” for Extension Office
By HI GH Fl LLEBTON
isecoou oi a nenes
The old Extension Service
is plowing new ground with
its added duties in the field
public policy and resources.
The title of the new area
rovers lot, bui as the Ex ten
ri.41 Service sees it, public
policy and resources are just
an extenriun of the tradition
al educational role.
Because the field is so
broad, the Barry County
Extension Office has broken
it down into two smaller
areas, and two of ths agents
share the responsibilities.
Doria Richardson, exlen
sson directed and family
living agent, is primarily
ror.crrned with the public
policy aspects. Ron Dinger
»«, agriculture agent, haa
taken «n the ronssrvation

job. which is closely related
to his area.
As the extension service
sees it. public policy includes
the “development and man
agement of natural and o mmunity renxtrcc* including
human rerource* " The ob­
jective of the ex iron. ser
vice is to help citizens and
civic leaders belter under
stand their community and
the Issues facing them. Mrs.
Richardson says.
The extension service
«ee* its role a* an education
al one. helping to train
fui ure leaden and providing
infixmatioa to citizen* and
leader* alike
How d-«* this role trans
late into ution?
A current example is the
M-ric* of two *eminars on
the state tax system, which

were just held. The meet
ings were designed to help
civic leaders and laymen
alike understand just how
the state of Michigan levies
its taxes.
In additfixi. a m&gt;xe im
mediate effect was to help
senix citizen* understand
the special real eslate tax
break* available juv to
them. Mr*. Richardson said.
Because of the special inter
est in that, the Extension
Office may schedule future
sessions just to familiarize
citizens with the senior cit­
izen excmptii4i.
Land use policy ha* been
an issue in Michigan for the
pas; several year*, and the
Ex'ension Office ha* held
educational meeting* on that
in the past. Extension is
especislly interested be­

cause land use policy affects
the farmers, to whom many
extension service* are dir­
ected.
Recently, a meeting for
county government leader*
wa* held in Gxunna to help
familiarize (hem with fed­
eral t’ETA j--b programs.
Four commissi- -ners from
Barry Counijt attended.
Mrs. Richardson said, and
one remarked that they had
never before hsd a real
understanding of the pro­
gram.
Another program called
New Horizon* is being done
in Ionia Gwnty. and Mr*.
Riehardw-n • ■•uld like to try
it here. The program train*
50 people who are ahbed a*
present -&lt;t putroiul com­
munity leaders, to blip pre­
pare them fi&gt;r their ■-'xn-

munity n4e*.
The public policy area
frequently blends into the
resource* area, as with the
Extension Office involve­
ment in th Giunty Forestry
Gxnmittee. Working with
other agencies, the exten
sion office is *eeki.ig a grant
to get a f xestee lo do a
survey of fixe*' resources in
the county, with an eye to
fuiure development.
Gmservatkxi. of course, is
not a new concern fi&gt;r Exlenai'Xi. especially since it was a

The program will include

In the public pJicy and
conservarixi field, the Ex­

Medical Service Council
A number of persons in­
terested in improving emer
grncy medical services in
Barry County have formed
the Barry County Emer
gency Medical Services
Council.
The EMS Council will
provide input to regional
health system planners who
are preparing an EMS plan
expected Io bring 1.7 million
dollars to upgrade EMS in
an eight county region in­
cluding Barry.
Dr. Thomas Hicks, elected
to chair the group at its
second meeting Thursday
night, said that the EMS
Gmncil is made up of rep
resent at ives of many ele
men:* of emergency medical
service in Barry Countv,
such a* fire, police, amb

ulance. lied Chibs and the
medical professional.
Dr. Hicks said that rep
resentatives are being
sought from both the Barry
County Supervisors Assoc­
iation and Barry County
Ifeard of Commissioners as
well.
There is n&lt;&gt; guarantee
that we will obtain any
dollars for Barry County."
Dr. Hick* noted, “but we
will at least be able to
provide a forum to help
improve th delivery of pre
hospital care in Harry
County."
The next meeting of the
EMS Council is scheduled
for Tuesday. March 28. at 8
p.m. in the Pennock Hospital

The proposed ordinance to
raise Hasting* city wa'er
and sewer rales was turned
down Tuesday evening by
the Hastings City Council.
The surprise vote came
after a hearing which lasted
more than two hours, in
which nearly every speaker
opposed the rate increase.
Following the decision,
however, rome eity official*
were saying privately that
rates will have u&gt; go up^but
perhaps not a* much a the
rejected ordinance had ant­
icipated.
Residents who eame to
the hearing objected on var­
ious ground*, but the most
oft repealed argument was
that senkx citizens and low
income people will be strap­
ped by the sudden increase
in utility rates.
The rejected ordinance
would have doubled sewer
rates, and increased water
rates by about 25 percent, to
raise an additional 1180.000
for the elty water and sewer
system.
The ordinance was reject­
ed by a vote of six to one.
and the only councilman
voting for it-Tom Robinson
said he was doing so "under
protest". Councilman R/&gt;ben
Birke was absent.
The hearing opened with
City Solicitor Dick Shaw
explaining why the city
must maintain the water and

5900.000 on a bond issue in
1970 to pay for the new
sewage treatment plant, and
the bond issue will be paid
off in 1994.
Klovanieh noted that lab
i* costs have gone up 20
percent since the last rate
increase, and that the city
auditors have urged that
fringe benefits be paid out of
water and sewer fund* in­

stead of the general fund.
Revenues, however, have
dropped by &gt;90.000 or 23
percent, because industry

said that the city should be

Ken Howe, former roim

the billing clerks in «ueh

Rill Ransom, sewage

CHANGING EXTENSION

Public Policies and Conservation Are “Growth Area” for Extension Office

The old Extension Service
is plowing new ground with
it* sddrd duties in the field
public policy and resources
The title of the new area
rover* lot, but as the Ex ten
sion Service see* it, public
policy and resource* are just
an extecriua of the tradition
al educational role
Because the field t* an
broad, the Barry County
Extension Office ha* broken
it down into two smaller
area*, and two of the agent*
share the responsibilities.
D»h* Richardson, exten
**on director and family
living agent, is primarily
concerned with th* public
policy aspect*. Ron Dinger
»«, agriculture agent, haa
taken &lt;xi the conservation

job. which i* closely related
to hi* arsa.
A* the extension service
see* it. public policy include*
the “development and man
agement of natural and e&gt; mtnuniiy re»&gt;urccs including
human resource* " The ob­
jective of the exienrixt sec
vice is to help citizen, and
civic leaders belter under
stand their community and
the issues facing them. Mr*.
Richardson tay*.
The extension service
«ee* its role a* an education
al one. helping to train
fui ure leaders and providing
information to citizens and
leader* alike
How d-&lt;* this role trans
late iaro kafixi.’
A current example la th*
•erics of two *eminar* on
the state tax system, which

were just held. The meet
ing* were designed to help
civic leaders and laymen
alike understand just how
lhe state of Michigan levies
its taxes.
In addition, a more im
mediate effect was to help
•eni .- citizens understand
the special real estate tax
breaks available jus&gt; to
them. Mrs. Richardson said.
Because of the special inter
est in that, the Extension
Office may schedule future
session* juat t« familiarize
citizens with the senior cit­
izen exemption.
Land use policy has been
an issue in Michigan for the
pa*; several years, and the
Evenst-.n Office has held
educational meetu&gt;g* on lhai
is the pasi. Extension is
especially interested be­

cause land us* policy affect*
the farmer*, to whom many
extension service* are dir­
ected.
Recently, a meeting for
county government leaders
was held in Corunna to help
familiarize them with fed­
eral CETA ji-b programs.
F-ur commissioner* from
Barry Coumjt attended.
Mr*. Richards- n said, and
-me remarked that they had
never before had a real
understanding of the pro­
gram.
Another pr--grant called
New Horizons is being done
in l-mia County, and Mrs.
Riehardwn • - &gt;uld like to try
it here. The program trains
50 people who are ahbed as
prevent -.r potentul com­
munity leaders, to hi Ip pre­
pare them fi&gt;r their ’.im­

munity roles.
The public policy area
frequently blends into the
res*iurces area, as with the
Extension Office involve­
ment in th County Forestry
Committee. Working with
other agencies, the exten
sion office is *eeki.ig a grant
to get a f-eesier to do a
survey &lt;if fixes' ree-urces in
the county, with an eye to
fuiure development.
Conservation, of rourse. is
not a new concern fix Exten­
sion. especially since it was a
special interest of retired

residents who wish to heat
their home* with wood.
The program will include
demonstrations and ex
hibitt. and fixu* &lt;&gt;n both
efficient use »f wmd and
pr-per safety precautions.
la the public p-bey and
conservation field, ihe Extenri-.n Office is ready to
help citisens and groups.
In the past th* office
advised Charlton Park on
landscaping, and recently
advised a person who was
c nudering development of

B.P.O.H. Commission Split
On Ambulance Contract
By Elaine Gilbert
The BPOH Ambulance
Commission will meet at
7:30 p.m. Wednesday lo try
to teach an agreement over
awarding a contract lo one
of several bidders who have
submitted proposals to pro­
vide ambulance service lo
Barry. Prairieville. Orange
vdle. and Hope townships.
"If the people know we
may l-ise our present amb
ulance service, they may
turn out." said Mrs. Darlene
Vickery who is secretary of
lhe volunteer organisation
which helps staff the ser­
vice.
The meeting will be held
al the ambulance base in the
public safety building. 201 E.
Orchard Street, in Delton.
Attempts by the eight member commission lo
reach a decision became
deadlocked last week after
four rounds of secret ballot­
ing failed to break a 4-4 tie
vote between proposals
from the present operator
Robert DeRushia and Chest
er Walker who owns Plain­
well Ambulance. Inc.
The split boils down to a
division among commission
members over whether lo
retain the present kind of
ambulance service which is
owned and eontroled by lhe
townships or to sw-itch lo
subsidizing an individual
who would operate the ser
vice as a private ambulance
firm.
Sitting on the commission
are two township board
members from each of the
townships served by lhe
ambulance service
Reportedly commission
members (r--m Barry and

Orangevdie townships voted
last week to award lhe
contract to Walker, while
f*ratneville and Hope town­
ships voted to retain De
Rushia and the present type
of service.
Since that meeting, the
service's volunteer staff has
voted unanimously to rally
behind DeRushia.
Ambulance volunteers say
they are puzzled over the
ommission's tie vole and
are encouraging citizens to
attend Wednesday's meet
ing "to ask questions and
find out what's going on.**
DeRushia. whose contract
has been extended fn*m
Feb. 11 to March 31. has
submitted a proposal to con
Hnuc operating the service
as it presently exists, but
increasing the base rale lo
those who use the amb­
ulance from 145 to 155. The
charge per loaded mile
would remain SI.25. under
his proposal.
As operator. DeRushia
receives no salary but re
tains fees for services rend
ered. The townships pay
operating expenses which
arebudgeted at 123.200 for
the current year.
The budget includes
$7,800 to hire one full lime
or two part time employees
to assist DeRushia. but the
service is primarily staffed
by about two dozen vol­
unteers.
Walker has submitted a
one-year proposal lo lease
the township's two amb
uiances for $1 and operate
the service as a private
business with a subsidy of
$21,000 from the four gover­
nmental units.

He then proposes to pur­
chase lhe emergency units
by adjusting lhe townships'
subsidy for the next year to
cover the cost of the veh­
icles.
Walker has proposed a
base rate "I $55 plus $1 JO
per l--adcd mile and addition­
al charges of $10 for an
emergency run. $10 for a
night run. and $15 for band
ages. .,r splints, or other
medical supplies.
Under Walker s proposal,
the service would move from
the public safely building in
Delton and be based at a
private home I probably at
lhe home of one of his
ambulance attendents). He
has said he would be inter­
ested in screening and hiring
some of the sen ice's present
volunteers to staff the bus­
iness.
Regarding lhe com­
mission's vote. DeRushia
said. "I'm completely baf­
fled When it was a tie. I was
shocked."
He has been operator of
lhe service since Iasi sum
mer and said. 'There have
been no complaints about
the service whatsoever."
William Wooer, super­
visor of Barry Township and
chairman of the ambulance
commission, said he is look
ing at the proposals strictly
in terms of “dollars and
cents- to save money for the
township."
He said he favors Walk­
er's pr&lt;&gt;p-sa) because “the
people who use the service
would pay the higher fee.

CHANGING EXTENSION

Changing Lifestyles Mold Family Agent’s Role
By HUGH Fl LLERTON
Family living agent, the upto date title of lhe former
Extension Service home economut. also indicates a little
bit how the job has changed.
No more is the extension home economist catering
mainly lo women who live in isolated rural homes, who no
way to keep up with new ways ol doing things
Now (days. the family living agent is dealing with
h'-memakers of all kinds from the working woman who
wants shortcuts to accomplish more in her fsw hours at
h-rne. to the suburban housewife who in anxious to cook
the new gourmet dish or keep up with (he latest fashion.
Not that series to rural h.maewife has been
eliminated. The traditional Extension Homemakers Clubs
are still operating, but lhe changing patterns of family life
dictate that today's family living agent use many newer
methods to bring household information to the busy
woman of the 1970's.
Dorie Richardson, herself a busy working wife, is
immersed In the challenge of bringing Extension Office
services to today's homemaker.
When life waa slow, communications poor, and rural
women needed a social group to help them out of the house,
lhe home extension club was an Innovative, effective way

of reaching many farm wives.
Fur wane w.-men. the eatension club fills a real need
even today. There are 10 such clubs active in Bsrrv
Uxinty. Mrs. Richardson says. In lai-ge part they are
•elf-sustaining, planning their own activities and pro
grams, and Mrs. Richardson attends their meetings only
oceaai- cully.
educaiional f-cums for farm women. They learned to can
and preserve, sew a dress and many other skills through
extension Hubs. Then as n»w. most extension dub
meetings had both a formal educational program and an
inf-rmal s-eial hour, and women looked forward to both.
T-day, however "women have so many more ways of
learning things." Mrs. Richardson points out. Today's
housewife can read all kinds of periodicals or learn from
radio and telcvisi-&gt;n. Many Barry County women attend
lhe lesson days and GJlege Day pr-igrams which the
Extension Office offers every year.
The annual Gillege Day for women of Barry. Ionia and
Montcalm Giuntles has become tremendously popular,
attracting about 400 women. But the subject matter
changes to meet changing needs and interest». Mrs.
Richardson piiints out.This year's Gillege Day will feature
such subjects as tracing your geneulogy, met •urologyw-cnen return lo work, nutrition and how to play with your

children.
Mrs. Rzchardson is prepared to put on a toe of
programs &lt;ai specific subjects either for the general puhik
or f-&lt; gr-ups who invite her.
S*-tne of the -pen pr-grxmi she has pul
here
include microwave cooking, food preservation and TX' and
children. Rhe ean put »n msny m&lt;&gt;re, if inquiries indicate
there is an interest.
Her microwave cooking demonstratfoti has been given
to many gr-ups. and Mrs. Richards&gt;m notes that men are
especially interested.
Not all lhe family living education haa to be done
personally by Mrs. Richards-&gt;n. For those who wanl to put
•&gt;n a program for a group, the Extension office has a large
library of “self leach packets" on many subjects. Various
materials have been assembled, and provided to anyone
wh&lt;&gt; needs them for a program on that particular subject.
Mrs. Richardson also handles a great number of
specific requests for information on aspects of family
living. Extension office records show that the office gels an
average of about 140 inquires a month for information in
Mra Richardson's area, ny phone or office visit. Mrs.
Richardton or her staff respond to all these requests either
trying loanswcr lhe questions ar guiding lhe person lu the
right piece of litoral ure.

Fi«d questions, especially on f-d preservation, and
laundry pr.-blems lead the hst of inquiries. Mrs.
Richards--n says
A special service which Mrs. Richardson is well qualif
ted to offer through extension is kitchen planning. This is a
a specialty of hers, and she thinks she may be the only
family living ageni in Michigan who d-es this. Mrs.
Richardson smiles and explains that helping h-cneowners
and I h&lt;-replanning homes »r new kitchens was a large part
-f her j--b when she was a h--me oennomist with Consumers
Power G«.
Mrs. Richardson has alto bee.-me involved with a new
countywide project in cooperation with other agencies. A
G-uniy Nutritim Council is being formed, with the help of
a grant ihn-ugh lhe Calhoun Action Agency. The council's
j b will be i-&gt; educate lhe public on the principles of g&lt;»-d
nu’riu--n and help people toeat better while staying within
their budget. She Is now looking for people from all areas of
he county who have • hackgr -und tir special interew in
nutritiiHi to w-&gt;rk with the c-uncil.
lukc other Extension office fields, the family living
•gent has taken oft a tot &lt;4 new duties, while running the
radiii'-nal pr-«rams as well. No doubt, tomorrow's
ri-anging s-ciety will see further changes in her rule.

To the Editor
Be aware, those who ar*
serviced by B.P.O.H. Amb­
ulance! Your Ambulance
board is making a decision
for a new operate. At thia
time it is a deadlock between
our present operator and
Mr Walker from Plainwell,
who has presented a very
"ify" contract.
Your rales from Mr.
Walker would be very high.
For example: If you had an
accident at night in Delton
and wanted to go to Borgess.
your bill would be 1102 00
plus charges for supplies. If
you wanted or needed to go
to a hospital farther away, it
would be 11.50 more, per
mile. He wants to lease our
two ambulance* and equip
ment for 11.00 per year.
•1.00, for a year's wear and
tear on two ambulances
hardly seems fair to th* tax
payers.
Those of you that ar*
E.M.T.* (Emergency Med
ical Technicians) or ar* cur­
rently going to eollegv to
become one. there Is no
guarantee you will even be
used. At the end of the first
year Mr. Walker would lake
over both ambulances and
adjust his subsidy to cover
cost of them. How do w*
know what this charge will
be to us lhe tax payer.
They would run it aa they
do the service they have in
Plainwell. One keeps the
ambulance and if they gel a
call they pick up their attendent. Can you imagine
lhe amount of time it would
lake to gel to a call. I think
our present operator, Mr.
DeRushia. has done an ex­
cellent job. Please call your
township official* and let
them know how you feel
about this matter. Thia is an
important issue. I wouldn't
buy anything without know
ing exactly how much it was
going to cost me. if you feel
lhe same, please gel Invol­
ved.

nr. there ia injustice, being
done here by you. who do
not have a kind heart. There
ia reason enough, our aur
vival. so I can do thia, even if
it might lake a little time,
for you see. mayor, we the
people, have the right, to not
be buried, by the action, you
are ah»&gt;ut to get through,
and none of you. or the mem
on the council, have done
one thing, aa I have, about
getting lhe cost of living
back where it should be. so
all can live, and wv have the
right to live, not to die. For,
Communism, is to die, and I
guess we aren’t far from
that, when you are making
organised plana, to drive the
older citixen* out of their
own homes, all because you
want to hand them also, this
"kHl-ofT increase in water
and sewer. I'm smart
enough to think that too
much of this manure, has
already gone on. in the
whole country, and we've
had enough, so you can look
for the efforts to get thrown
out of office, all because of a
hardened heart, against lhe
older, and rilixens on low.
and limited income. This is
not a nation of the survival
of the richest. and 1 fear you
not.

Orangeville-Gun Lake
By Lorraine Cooke
Now that the big blizzard
is behind us, wo can ap­
preciate lhe things all about
us that we normally took for
granted. Such things as see­
ing lhe little red compact car
driven by the smiling Avon
lady. Isabelle Brown, who
gives you a wave in greet ing
as she passes by on her
route; the sight of Everett
Tiller sitting on his usual
perch when he visits with
Alvin Whittaker at the May­
or uf Orangeville’s service
station each day; a host of
school busses to pick up the
many township children
either (o Delton or Martin;
Mini-buses picking up the
handicapped youngsters
thai will take them every
day to Battle-Creek or Al
legan; Snowmobtiers enjoy­
ing the availability of Gun
Lake and other areas, and
milk once again In the local
store ice boxes
So many folks whom we
never see very much of
ordinarily, came out to assist
folks tn need. Some availed
themeelves and their equip­
ment. as did Garry Terberg
with his large dozer plow.
He plowed many drive ways
as a neighborly gesture to
allow them access to the
road. One young man was
seen up to his waist in
snow carrying three gallons
of milk for the neighbor’s
children-walking several
blocks in the stuff to make
these deliveries
Danny Hale organized his
fnends with four wheel
drives and snowmobiles to
assist the BPOH Ambulance

Service in responding to
calls during the emergency.
Harley Switzer was kepi
busy keeping the streets of
Orangeville cleared with hie
plow. Run Hermenitt, fire
chief of Orangeville Town­
ship. maintained his diligent
crew of fire fighters on the
alert. The community is
m-»»! appreciative of all (he
good acts of all those people,
who will never come up
front io he counted for their
goodness.
The BPOH Ambulance
Servic- responded to an
emergency call to the Jer­
ome Coryell, Sr. home on
Heller Road, early Saturday
morning. Mr. Coryell a life
long resident of Orangeville
Township waa rushed to
Pennock Hospital where he
was reported to be resting
comfortably.
We are saddened to hear
of I he death of David KahUo.
or Orangeville Dave, who
was owner of the KahUo
Business and Accounting
Service, resided in Orange­
ville Township for many
years. He will be buried
Wednesday at Oak HUI Com
scary following the funeral
at MarxhaJGren Funeral
Home. Plainwell. Father
Kurt Fish. St. Francis
Church will officiate. Rec
epi ami fur family and friends
will be at 8t. Francis Unde

O.K. Professional Study Of
Citys Water, Sewer Rates
A professional study of
the city's water and sewer
rates was authorized Mon­
day evening by th Hastings
City Council. The council
voted to hire Jones &amp; Henry
Engineers Ltd. of Toledo to
do the study al an estimated
cool of $3,000.
The study is expected to
be e&gt;«npleled by March 27.
The study come* after a
heated hearing two weeks
ago on a proposed ordinance
to double sewer rate* and
increase water rale* by
about 25 percent. Following
that hearing, the council
voted down the ordinance.
Jones A Henry was select
ed to do the study because
the firm has done consider­
able engineering for lhe city,
including the new sewage
treatment plant, and the
firm designed at he rate
structure n»w in use.
Roger I*. Baker of Jones &amp;
Henry said that the $3,000
figure is just an estimate,
and the actual cost could be
more &gt;.r less depending on
time spent on the study.
The study, according to
Baker's letter, will include
the following:
-An
l.
analysis of 1977
water usage and creation of

a mathematical model of
Hastings water use.
2. - A study of the expens
es of utility operation and
projection of future expens
es.
3. - A study of debt service
requirements ol the system.
4. -Compilation of a list of
future capital imporvement
projects which are expected
to ue needed.
6.-A study of miscellan
eous activities and revenues
of the sewer and water
system.
6. Developing
recom­
mended waler and sewer
rales to produce the re­
quired revenue* to pay for
■■peratioa. debt service and
future imporvement* of lhe
system.
In the discussion on lhe
prop--sed s'udy Aiderman
T-sn Robinson noted that
perhaps i lie city should have
been phasing up lhe rates
gradually -&gt;ver a peri&lt;xi of
lime, instead of having to
raise them so m-jeh at less
(rrqurnt intervals.
Mayor Ivan Snyder, com­
menting • « reaetkm follow
mg the recent hearing, said
he is "probably as rl-we to

Dear Mr. Holman:
Because of all the inaction
and omfuaioa in the recent
handling of the cruelly to
animals complaint reported
to lhe Barry Co. Sheriffs
office on Feb. 7, 1978. we
feel that it is important that
several question* be ans­
wered by your office, so that
we as well aa the general
publk will be aware of how a
future case of thia type could
be handled in a faster and
m-.re professional manner
than ha* been exhibited in
this ease, up to the present
time.
1. Hu a warrant been
issued against Mr. Ralph
Hower on the charge of
cruelly to animals Involving
(he 6 young animals (4 alive
and 2 dead?) If so. when is it
to be served upon him and
will you attempt U&gt; follow it
thru and not allow lhe
charges to be withdrawn or
dropped by your office? If
none hu been issued, please
detail to me. the reason or
reasons why one will not be.
when the animals were pick­
ed-up because of sms-treat­
ment?
2. Is lhe animal control
officer the person who is
responsible for handling
complaints meh u this ..nr?
If he is, why did it lake 2
weeks, and 2 dead animals
bef.rr any action was taken
to remove them? Wu there
f. K.t dragging on his part or
did he lack direction or
authority from your office?
3. Is lhe dead animal that
wu lying in the Hoover barn
from Feb. 21 thru Feb. 24.
1978 not a violation of Mich

igan law? Mr. VanKampen
from the Mich. Dept, of
Agrie. informed me that he
s&gt;&gt; informed Mr. Hoover of
this law on Feb. 9. 1978
when another animal wu
fund dead in the barn. If
this is true, what doe* a
citizen have to do to get a
warrant issued by your of­
fice for that offense?
Ptease reply to me and
also send a ropy to tbe
Chairman of the Barry Co.
B-ard of Commissioners.
Thank you fir your time
and consideration and the
lime you expend to see that
lhe above charges are not
all-.wed to be dropped or
"bargained away."
Yours truly.

TotteoEdkor:
Electors in the Hutings
Area School District must
deride on Monday March 13.
whether or not to renew for
three years more, the 18.51
millage that hu been levied
in support of lhe local school
system for lhe pul eight
years. Since see have here an
excellent school system that
■rprates at a root somewhat
under that "I the elate
average for all Mkhgian
school district, this request
fir a continuation of lhe
millage merits strong ap­
proval throughout the area.
Hut inp High graduates
who enter colleges and un­
iversities for advanced train­
ing in arts and sciences or
the profestexxs invariably
come through with very
satisfactory records under
conditions that are stiffer
and more hightly competit­
ive than when many of us
were in lhe throes of schol­
astic (raining-a fact that
give testimony to the quality
»f educational opportunities
available to those who wish
to take advantage of the
programs offered. Also,
much m&lt;&gt;re attention is now
being given to practical
training in the crafts, open­
ing up new opportunities to
th.we not Interested in enU
ege preparatory course.
This is a healthy educational
development. More attent­
ion is also being given to
remedial reading, a field
which, in theopinion of many
can never be over-stressed.
Hastings Area School
have never been closed by
strikes, a situation that ind­
icates a healthy relatioaahip
between lhe administration
and the faculty a* well u
between the seho.4* and the
several communities includ­
ed in the Hutings area.
A continuation of the ef­
fect iveneu of the Hutings
Area School* during the
years immediately ahead
will depend tn a considerable
extent on favorable action of
(he 18.51 millage proposal at
the election scheduled tor
Monday, March 13. As men!
i-&gt;ned above, this proposal
asks not fi&lt; an increase in
rates, but rat her-lhe eont
inuation of the millage that
hu been in effect f &lt; lhe
past eight yean.
Voting precincts will be at
the Junior High Gym in
Hasting* and at the Pteasan view school. I*olls will
be pen from 7:00 a.m. to
8.-00 p.m.
So. lets go to lhe polls
Monday. March 13, and give
lhe millage request the
strong support it deserves.

Mother of 4 Speaks
at Lenten Retreat
by Torn Hinkoski
The Lenten Retreat Ser­
ies at St. Rose Church
reached a new high this past
week. Diane Hawkina, a
parishioner and mother of
four shared her insights on
th second beatitude. "Bless­
ed are the gentle..."
Neither
pastor
nor
preacher. but siiU plenty
nervous, Daine's present*!
i.tn nevertheless must have
hit home as the rapt silence
■•f even the teens present
attested to.
The coffee break cum
ment * were positive not only
f-.r Diane, but also for the
fact that the paruhoners
themselves felt they finally

began io share their idea*
with each other.
"The gentle.” Diane said,
cannot violate life.” Reflect­
ing upon her experience as a
parent, she urged that gen­
tleness is something par­
ents can use more of. Diane
shared th* words of Girrie
ten B»mm on gentleness.
She called us to seeing that
gently people are not those
who are lowly but those who
rev eran ce every part &lt;4 life.
Gently people know how to
laugh in the ram because
they know about rainbows.
Everyone is Invited to lhe
Ix-nten Series.

Our Bible tells u* about lhe early church, the
church of trie first century That church made a
tremendous impact upon the world The* fervent
spans and righteous trees are a great example of God"s
lieople m every age But thero are other ways m which
that church should be imitated. In its organization,
teaching, and worship, that church submitted to the
guidance of the Word of God If we would please the
lord, we should be guided by the same pattern of
leaching and practise which is now recorded for us in
Die New Testament. Consider these few thoughts
about the early church.
1 The early church had no central organization
here upon earth Each ;ong'egat&gt;oa was independent
and autonomous No central headquarters controlled
the teaching or ac'ivtly of other congregations
2 The early church did not consist of many
denominations with many d.her ent human, sectarian
names When such threatened the church it wa*
quickly quetlod by the apostles II Corinthians 1:10 131.
3. The early church was careful to follow lhe
truth, not error It did matter what people believed.
Correct doctroa was sought after, lor false teaching
could lead people to believe l«es that wou!u condemn
Ol Thessalonians 29-12, Galatian 1 8 91
4 The eady church worshipped according to the
Will of God It .nd not see* to imitate pagan idoMtrnu*
practises wfach would liave consisted of Irer.ned
dances or other appeals to the *en*es 'John 424). Nor
did it p.*2ctise the ordinances of the low uf Moses, for
Christians recognized that lhe old law had been
funded in Christ (Matthew 5:17)

Dear Friends
You may have wondered why I haven't
written for you lately. I've wanted to, but my
failing eyesight has been a problem.
As you reed this I am about to bo
stropped down on the operating table at
Parkview Hospital in Ann Arbor. There Dr.
Shulman wfll remove the cataract from my
right eye.
It is caked the crystaSna Ions but I
expect that it will look more Ilka a Smith
Bros, cough drop. I have asked them to save
It for me so that I may examine it.
The B*le says: "As now we eee through
a glees. darkly. But in the and al things sha«
be made deer."
That’s the way it ia with us cataract
people. We hope that after while we wto be
able to see daerty again.
In a way It's like setting forth on a see
voyage, the slow boat to China.
For a few days I wfll be s passenger with
no identity, 1*1 ba under constant care. So
let's relax.
Do you believe that? I don’t. Soon I'll bo
bock with you again. My mind to ful of ideas
which I can't develop just now.
Write me if you have time. I'd a lot
rather hove a personal note than any
Hallmark greeting card. But write big. Thai's
the way I have to reed just now.
Later, when all this has ended. I wil bo
able to read tiny script like this. But just now,
writs big.
Soon I shall return, dear-eyed and flat
broke. But If I can walk down State St. with
my head up, not watching the sidewalk: if I
can run down a flight of stops as I used to do.
Just now I taka them one step at a time and
keep my hand on the ratong if there is one. tf I
can do those things, it will sN have been
worth while.

same millage that has exist­
ed fur the past eight years.

My wife and I had ihs

first time last week. We
were joined by friends from

the current presentation of

“Oh God" at the Strand

thoroughly enjoyed the
evening.
We would like tn thank
the owner of the theater for
ibe hospitality vatended to

to offer this unique style of
eniertainmem. The people

unate to have such a facility

To The Editor:
As a former longtime
resident and business of
Hastings and presently a
taxpayer on State St. com­
mercial property. I wish to
support the "affirmative
voters’ who will cast their
ballots for t he passage of the
Hastings Area School Diet
riff 18-51 millage renewal &gt;«
March 18i h.
A slay -&gt;f 29 years in the
community afforded mo the
opportunity to observe and
appreciate the --peratioe of
the well administered school
system under the leadership
•f capable superintendent a

and the guidance of consclentioua members of the
seh-'J to-ard. Thro ia not a
bit of to.uto in my mind that
the record! show a better
than average percentage of
students who have the priv­
ilege--f being exp -eed tc tbe
Has&lt;ings School System
have since become respon­
sible leaders aa doctors,
lawyers, educators, eng­
ineers. industrialists, and
businessmen.
The writer has *akeu the
liberty to visit in pere-n and
■ ver the pto&gt;ne wilh several
■»f y-&gt;ur I--cal people about
the “millage renewal mat
er" and 'he c-ncensua of
pini .n ia that a yes* vote
will carry. Much m-re o.uld
be said in favor of such a

ropetiti-.ua al thia point of
what has already been said
and spoken by others. In

Holt Rolls Over Lakewood
In Semifinal At Charlotte
by Thomas Krawtsak
The lodmwond Vikinp
ended their 1977-78 basket­
ball season by suffering
through a lopsided contest
that saw the Holt Hams
cruise lo a 7447 semi final
victory in the Clasx B dist­
rict tournament held at
Charlotte March 1.
The 2S yean of coaching
experience provided the
Rams by their veteran
Coach Dsn Houenesion
showed as the smooth oper­
ating Rama did everything
right in marking their 11th
win of the campaign and
their aecnd in tournament
action.
The Rams fell behind 4-2
in the early going but turned
things around in a hurry.
Randy Whittled, a Ram
guard, provided the early
offensive punch aa he fired
in f-'ur shots from outside of
15 feet in lhe fl-si quarter
which ended H-4: 17. Lakew-d 10.

Despite the fact that the
Vikings were down by seven
points the first period wm a
closer played quarter than
that ecore would indicate.
The Vikings were working
t he ball well to the inside but
the fine defensive rebound­
ing &lt;&gt;f Holt denied Lattewood any extra chances
fr-m In elose underneath the
hoop.
Very impressive far Holt
was Gary Tropf. brother of
Central Michigan's standout
varsity player Jeff Tropf.
Gary played great offensive
ball as he shared high point
honors for the game with
teammate Randy Whitford,
both totaling 16 pointe. How­
ever it was the defensive
play of Tropf that impressed
this rep&gt;rter. One one occas
k-n in t he game Tropf missed
two attempts from in done,
enough to momentarily dis­
tract sny ball player from
his defensive assignment;
bu: when Lakewood grab
bed the rebound Gary was
one of the first back down
ihe floor, it waa Gary who
lipped a Viking pass..^nd
sent the Rams right back
d .wn the floor f-&lt; another
asalt on the Viking hoop.
Turn iverf played a major
pari in lhe game. Holt
crea ed a boot of opportunit
ies f-&lt; themselves when

their press really came to be
a dominant forte in the
amtesi. During the second
and third quarters, when the
press was in full swing, Holt
oul-ec-red Lake rood 42-15.
The firs: half ended 3919
and after three periods the
game was in lhe bag Holt
leading 59 25.
The fourth quarter of lhe
cnatesi was played out by
the benches of both squsda.
The Lakewood bench out­
pointed Huh in lhe final
eight minui as 22 15 and at he
game ended 7447.
Lakewood finishes the
year at 348. During the
tough varsity season there
was good reason U&gt; look wilh
optimism to lhe next cage
season. Both the Lakewood
JV and freshman teams
enjoyed outstanding years
and lhe play of Larry Lubita.
Paul Sowers, and Kirt Ingall
new members of the varsity
staff, signala more tradition
ally fine lakewi.d cage
action in lhe season to c&gt;me.
Even though they w«m but
throe ball games this year
the Vikings gave it their all
in every game. Whatever
the sc re. when yni give

1977 78 Vikings are winners.

Full-Time Prosecutor’s Staff Aims For “Better Justice”
“Belter justice out of the whole system", is lhe goal &lt;4
Harry County Prosecutor Gary Holman, and a peek al lhe
pnaecutic'* &lt;4fice shows some large steps toward that
goal.
Before H&lt;4man was elected to lhe job. lhe Barry
County prosecutor was an attorney in private practice,
who agreed In handle lhe county'a legal business as part of
his practice. For many yean, a stint as prosecutor waa
considered .me on the civic duties of local lawyers, and a
few years in lhe
was a fulfillment of that duly.
Hut like many another obligation, the requirement*
grew to lhe point where some quipped that it was “a
fulltime job for part lime pay." and even then the
prosecutor had trouble giving all cases the time and
attention they deserved.
Even so. a large chuck &lt;4 work was going to another,
local lawyer, because the prosecutor ahd hi* assistant could
not possibly handle lhe increasing workload associated
with Social Service*.
The combining of lhe county's legal services in one office,
staffed by three full-time lawyers, was a logical outgrowth.
Now, more than a year after Holman took office as the
county's first full-time prosecutor, lhe evolution seems
complete.
.
Holman's office include* three full-time attorneys, one
tow *iudent intern, and two secretaries. Each attorney has
his area of responsibility, but they also overlap enough so
that they share lhe workload.
Holman handles the administration ot the office, ot
course, and during 1977. the development &lt;4 new policy
t.*&gt;k quite a bit &lt;4 his lime. Now that policy to set and the
&lt;4fiee running snoothly &lt;&gt;c a day today basis. Holman has
m»re time fir his legal duties, which includes, as he puls it.
"b^kafiy
civil mailers nt the county."
He confers with department heads, lhe county
c-4nmtosi&gt;&gt;ners. gives lax advice to the townships whm
requested, and handles some criminal case*
Holman's chief aa^stant is Jifn Fisher, whose main
responsibility is crim.nal mailer. Part &lt;4 Fisher s salary is
paid by a federal grant for lhe Plea and Screening Unit t4
the prosecutor's office. When not fully treupied with
criminal matters. Fisher helps with county civil matters.

probate cases and other non-criminal work.
The other attorney i* Ken Weller, who handles a
variety of non criminal cases. He has taken most &lt;4 lhe
w..rk f -rmerly d-oe foe the Department of Social Service
by another lawyer, which includes thing* like child
support. family matters, juvenile cases, legal assistance to
the rnenn oi ine tourt, and similar work.
The fourt h professional member ot the staff is a young
law student. David Kacmr. who attends Conley School &lt;4
Law tn lensing at night.
Karaor is hired under the grant foe the Ilea and
Screening Unit, which also pays lhe salary of one secretary
and a share of the overhead costs.
Kacior's j.ib is In review all criminal matters which
are brought to the pnwecutnr's office. He work* cfiweiy
with police &lt;4firers toxn all departments in the county,
helping to evaluation criminal case*.
Holman says that a lot of criminal work is “basically a
sorting-out process." To do it properly lhe process is
time-consuming. Kacxor's review helps guarantee that
case* which deserve prosecution are built so they can be
w&gt;&gt;n. and that cases which don't really warrant it are not
taken to court.
Kacxor's recommendations are only advisory, how­
ever. and one of the three qualified attorney* review*
every matter which goes through lhe intern. Each case is
ranked according to its seriousness and the likelihood &lt;4
successful pnweeution. so that appropriate action can be
taken.
The Plea and Screening Unit is working (his year
under a grant from the federal Law Enforcement
Assistance Administration &lt;4 135.296. and HUman says
“it’s really working out great".
Having Kaczor in the .;ffkc helps assure that
whenever a police officer or deputy comes in with a ease,
there ia someone available in lhe prosecutor's office to talk
l» him. There have been times when all three attorneys
were in c-un. and no &lt;&lt;ne could hast talked to a law &lt;4fi*er.
if it had not been for lhe intern.
Since a large pari of the prosecutor's office work is
criminal. Holman ia cupeciaUy concerned with that aspect

of the job. He feels he has an obligation to the people to
f -rvefully prosecute criminal cases, and a similar obligation
Io lhe defendants to charge them only with the level of
crime they may have committed.
“If we issue a warrant.“ Holman says, “you're dealing
with a man s freed.-m...That's an awesome responsibility."
If an arrest i« made, Holman wanta to be sure there are
adequate grounds to hold lhe person.
With lhe increased manpower, the prosecutor's office
is able to take m--re cases to trial than formerly. Out of lhe
670 criminal warrants issued during 1977, about a doten
aciuall went through complete trials. Moat, of course, are
act tied by guilty pleas or plea bargaining, but HUman
expect a to double the number of trials this year.
A source -4 frustration to lhe prosecutor to the heavy
case i *ad in District Court, where misdemeanors (minor
enmesl are handled. The State Supreme Court has
determined that the Barry Eaton District Court is lhe
most heavily overloaded in lhe state, and ha* recommend
ed a fulltime District Court judge strictly for Barry

The .-nly way to move all the cases through District
Court is topless bargain many of them. Holman says. If he
conducted many trials there, the court would get
hopelessly behind and justice would be delayed for guilty
and inn-mni alike
“We w.mW be able to try a M more cases." HUman
says, if the new full time judge were assigned here He
feels that justice would be icr.-cd and would act as a
de errant if criminals know lhe pn^eeuitir was ready Io
ry misdemeanor*.
Another aspect &lt;-4 the District Court jam to that the
judge*. H'Jman feel*, don't have the tune to conuder
ind.'.idua! (AM* «1IU piolm-uis- PuumIomIiI Uim&gt;&lt; Cl Im*
circumstance*, but over worked judges can't even
determine what the circumstances are many time*.
H -lman's prime example is drunk driving. Mo»t drunk
drivers are charged with driving under the influence &lt;4
liqu -r. a serious offense. But rather than taka the time to
try them, the prosecutor’s office must often acrept a
driving while impaired plea, which carries much less
punuhmen*.

The judges. Holman says, should have adequate time
to s&gt;udy each caw and mete out severe punishment where
necessary. Perhaps some stiff penalties would reduce the
number *4drunk drivers, he reason*, and prevent a death
which c &gt;uld ■&lt; i any day on the roads.
'But if he tried •ne DUIL case a month, the court
would get h-ifwlrstly behind." H&gt;*lman lament*.
Holman nay* that with the staff his office now ha*, he
can probably handle the heavior workload which will come
if the new District Court judge is approved. He thinks that
an addui-nal judge •-•uld definitely improve the quality &gt;4
justice in ilie I-cal rains.
Holman sec* another trend developing in his office's
service to lhe county and the public. When the prosecutor's
}-b wa« a pan time one. the emphasis had to be on criminal
matter*, because they were m-&gt;*i pressing.
Now that the -liice ha* more staff ai&gt;d time, lhe
r-umy commissioner* and other* in niunty government
are making Ml ter usenf the office in civil and general legal
matter*.
H Iman als&gt;&gt; points out that "there are more and nv&lt;e
legal challenges to lhe g'«vernmeni.“ which make it
neresMO that various public bodtea get more and better
legal advice.
Though it has been a big j»b building a new

How It's Supported:
In addition to the 18.51 mills operating millage approved by school
district voters, income for school operation comes form the Barry County
Tax Allocation Board (8 mills); State Aid, which is approximately 45 percent
of the total operating budget, and Federal Funds, which are approximately 3
percent of the budget.
The balance of operating funds would be supplied by the extra 18.51
mills already voted and up for RENEWAL on March 13. The renewal
requested is for three years, and during that time the Board of Education
anticipates NO ADDITIONAL INCREASE necessary to run the schools.

What Is Being Asked
A simple renewal of the 18.51 mills now being levied in the school district
will support the schools adequately for another three years. No additional
millage is being sought. Through good management, the Hastings School
District will continue to provide quality education for all children with no
increase in the current tax rate I

two things.
First: Vote. Our society is
based
a democracy. Vot­
ing is an integral part of that •

privilege and responsibility
as a citizen of this country
and this community. I will go
e&gt; far as io say that if you do
nol vole, you have forfeited
y -ur right to complain about

lhe outcome of the election.
Second: Vote to continue
tbe present school millage.
We are being asked to
renew lhe present 18 mills
alloted f* school support.
There Is a&lt;&gt; increoe in lhe
millage request. As a sub­
stitute teacher, I have seen
many good things happening
in -«r schools over the
yean. I have seen exciting,
interesting learning exper
iences in our classrooms. 1
have seen children in need
of special help get it and
flourish with that help. I
have seen teachers concern­
ed for and helping their
students when they were In

haps because I see students

In those areas now or in the

Our letter was from Mr.

Vesper is the former Doris
Buege. daughter of Rev. and
Mrs. Arthur (Alma) Buege

Freeport tn 1919-1922 and
Rev. Buege pastured the
Methodist Espkopal Church
there and at Carlton Center,
which was at that lime the

The
Bueges had three other
children. Francis. Mildred
and Floyd.
After the Bueges left
Freeport, he pastured at
Wayland. White Pigeon and
Martin before moving to
Lawrence where he served
before retiring and moving
to Sparta.
Mrs. Buege passed away
on August 4, 1965 and Rev.

BY STAN CLANTON
Minister, Barry County
Church of Christ

Jesus once told the story of a fellow who owed a
kind a debt so large he never could have paid it off
(Matthew 1123-27). Some have estimated tho debt to
be about 10 million dollars in our money. According to
the story the man begged for mercy and the king
actually forgave his debt. Ther's more to the parable
and other lessons to be learned, but one great lesson is
thst God offers man forgiveness of an unpayable debt
brought about by his sin. We've received the big
At tho heart of apostolic preaching was a
message of forgiveness of sins through Christ. No one
can be in heaven who does not have his sins washed
away by the blood of Christ. One contacts that blood
when he is baptized kilo Christ (Romsns 83-4).
God has promised to forget tho sins of those who
come to him on his terms (Hebrews 8:121. He not only
puts aside the consequences, but he restores the
broken fellowship.
The Psalmist considered himself very fortunate
that God had not dearth with him according to his sins
(Psalm 103:10). One man watched a murderer on his
way to the execution chamber. After a moment of
reflection he said. "There go I. but for lhe grace of
God."
Only th® one who minimizes the tragedy of sin
will sense no need for forgiveness. The cross proves
thst sin is terrible and that forgiveness cannot be taken
for granted. The cost of forgiveness was the Irfe-btood
of God incarnate. The God who loves us has provided

Resolution presented.
WHEREAS, agriculture
in Barry County is one of our
biggest business and pro­
vides thousands of jobs dir­
ect ly and indirect ly. and
WHEREAS, agriculture
in lhe U.S. is our biggest
single business, employing
4.4 Million workers-as many
workers as the combined
employment of the trans­
portation. steel and auto­
mobile industries; 2 out of
every 10 jobs in private
employment are related to
agriculture: 8 to 10 million
people have iobs storing,
processing and mcrchandis
mg the products of agricult­
ure: 2 million people have
j-.hs providing the supplies
that farmer use: 100.5 billion
dollars are spent for goods
and services to produce
crops and livestock: 21% of
the U.S. export trade orig­
inated on U.S. Farms; no
other industry in the U.S.
lias done so much for its
Country and received so
little in return, and
WHEREAS. 99% of all
navy (peal beans harves(ed
in the U.S. come from Mich­
igan. and
WHEREAS, beans are
■ne of Michigan's biggest
en»rt commodities which
licljn our balance of trade.
’ WHEREAS. 83.9% of the

1977 budget for the U.S.
Depar'ment of Agriculture
will not be directed toward
agriculture by government's
own budgetary breakdown:
the agriculture related bud­
ge amounts to only 18 08%
■&gt;f the Departments budget,
and.
WHEREAS, farmers hold
d &gt;wn inflation for the con­
sumer m &lt;re than any other
major industry and little
recogniti -n is given to farm
er's accomplishments: in
1950 for instance, of every
dollar spent by the con­
sumer for food, the farmer
received 47c-yct by 1977 lhe
farmer is now receiving only
38c on every dollar and
WHEREAS, the Amer
ican public spent almost 160
billion dollars &lt;&gt;n domestical­
ly pr-duerd and processed
farm foods in 1975 (latest
figures available fr«rp
U7S.D.A.1: yet.the public's
expenditure on food has
been declining steadily when
measured os a percent age of
after tax income: in 1950 the
American public spent
214% of *i* iivi pcisotial
inc-.me on domestically pro­
cessed and produced farm
f»&lt;&gt;ds; comparable figures
for 1975 show that the U.S.
public spent only 14.8%- a
decline of 30.5% and.
WHEREAS, net farm in­
come is short 69.9 billion
dollars, if the U.S. Farmer
received the same rate tu
equn y as all food processors:
The U.S.D.A. says that
more than 75% of the rise in
U.S. f-«&gt;d e&gt;sis in the last
few years has come after the
food has left lhe farm, and,
WHEREAS, even though
parity does not guarantee

must first get along with

�THE HASTINGS BANNER. Monday. March 13.1978 Page 8

ARMCHAIR ATHLETE

\'i Buzz
I Youngs

Ice fishing is still one of the most popular winter
sport sin thr area despite lhe deep snow and thick ice. and
lhe use of sophisticated equipment such as lhe power
augurs and thr special hand powered steel augurs which
make b-ring through 30 inches of ice possible without loo
much effort makes it a fun sport.

It is a far cry of how we
remember Ke fishing in
northern U’iwmsin as a kid.
V.e didn't have such things
as kern blades lo bite
through three feel or more
of ice. and seldom did we
have anything that rcscmbl
ed a spud as we know it
l&lt;day.
We had to hike out lo the
lake, making our own trails
through the woods or walk
mg on lhe roads opened only
by horse drawn sleighs
There were no paths mao.
by snowmobiles, packed
d,.wn »&gt; one o&gt;uld walk on
u&gt;p of the snow. Once on the
lake, we had lo select a
likely spot lo fish, and then
cut a hole in lhe ice. Often
we used an ax or haehet.
Only a few had a spud.
Chopping a hole through

lhe ice was something else.
You started with a big
opening, and by the time you
get through you were lucky
lo have a hole large enough
to draw up a fish. And by the
lime you broke through to
the water yu were general
ly so dam wet from splash
mg wster that you wonder
cd why you even made the
effort. And believe me. you
didn't put 10-12 holes all
over lhe bay. If you got two
or possibly three, that was
something else.
Still, we had fun on the
ice. Seldom was the fishing
very productive, but come to
think &lt;&gt;f it. fishing still Isn't
loo productive where Old
Burs is concerned! But when
they are fishermen such as
Bill Jsmes. Harm and Dave
Wikux. etc. who cares.

Drinking in City Parks
May Be On Way ‘Out’
Drinking is Hastings'
parka, legally, may be a
thing of the past in the near
future following Monday
night's regular council ses­
sion attended by about 50
Irate citizens, moot of them
opposed to the use of intox­
icants in lhe parks, especial­
ly Tyden where the trouble
developed.
in addition to drinking
and lhe general lakover of
Tyden by what was describ­
ed as anti-establishment
y»ung people, citizens at
Monday's meeting protested
lhe rising assessments on
property for lax purposes,
lhe lack of satisfaction when
they appealed to lhe board
of review and also asked for
support to get a proposed
lax limulion referendum on
the state ballot.
Harry Burke was the
spokesman for the Goodwill
Class of the First United
Methodist Church, whose
members decided that now
was lhe time to do some­
thing about making Tyden
Park available for them dur­
ing the oming summer.
Burke said the use of the
park by law abiding people
had been curtailed by a
gr--up of young people. He
said they understood the
curtailment of offensive act­
ions would not be easy. but
eliminating lhe use of intox­
icants would be a proper
step.
Hr asked that lhe roun d
make it unlawful for a per­
son to consume or possess
alcoholic beverages in any
eity park.
Mary Lamb suggested
thst banning the parking of
cars in lhe park might help
and Mayor Ivan J. Snyder
said the council is working
towsrds that end. The city
already ha* purchased one
house along Broadway, and
is hoping to obtain lhe
second one to make a park­
ing area.
James Wood of lhe First
Baptist Chruch suggested a
facility for young people be
developed to give them
*--mething to do. and Agnes
Smith also suggested that
lhe kid* "Do need to be
considered." Former Alder
man Kenneth Howe suggest­
ed that revenue sharing
funds might be used for that
purp--*e. There will be a
public hearing March 28 to
receive views of the publie
on how revenue sharing
funds should be used.
Howe also recalled that
while he was on the council
he twice made motion to ban
drinking in tbe park, but
they died for lack of support.
Last July, however. Sny­
der got his dander up and
lhe council unanimously
voted to have Qty Atty.
Richard Shaw draw up an
ordinance banning drinking
of intoxicants in lhe parks.
At the next meeting lhe
rotinciJ voted 52 in favor of
lhe ordinance, declaring It to
be an emergency ordinance.
However, l« become effect
ive a two-thirds vote was
necessary, and the 5 2 vote
wu oswaiawt.
When the aidermen met
on Aug. 22. with atiseas
blaming public apathy as
much as anything for the
way Tyden wss being used.

they voted tbe ban downagain by a 5-2 vote.
Monday Burke wondered
what made lhe councilman
change their minds? Aider­
man David J asperse- who
had voted for lhe measureexplained that after ennsid
erable study tbe aidermen
believed that wasn’t lhe way
to g&lt;&gt;.
Monday John Barnett, a
former councilman, shared
Hurke'* recommendation
and added that he thought if
adults would use the park
more, lhe young people
might move. They don't
enjoy our company, either,
he said.
Rev. Sidney Short. Bur
ke's paator. echoed the recommcndatlor. and wonder­
ed if Tyden hadn't become a
gathering place for many
outsider*. Father William
Lewis of the Episcopal
Church and Rev. Andrew
Dado, Free Methodist
Church, supported the ban
Rev. Dado Mid he though it
was good that a Sunday
School (lass did something
besides study.
Bill Meyers said good
park* are --oe of lhe out­
standing (hings &lt;&gt;ne looks for
in a community and said he
though it waa "terrible" that
we have been unable to use
lhe park.
bus Spyker asked that
should lhe han pass, what
must be done to see that it
"stays paswd.”
Herb Hesteriy arid it dis
turbed him that church peo
pie have to bring these
things up.
Alderman William Cusack
agreed, and moved to have
the ordinance committee
bring in a change in lhe park
code to ban intoxicants. The
change is expected to have
iu first feuding March 27.
with a vote following at the
April 10 council session.
Burke later asked Chief of
Foitce Richard Sunior if
banning alcoholic beverages
would help lhe problem, and

would it be necessary to
have aa officer present in
lhe park, and would that be
p&gt;nsible. Chief Sunior. hum­
orously said it might be.
after May 31st. when-he is
scheduled for retirement.
Chief Sunior also explained
what is meant by intoxicat­
ing beverages.
May»r Snyder said cit­
izens attendance at council
meetings was appreciated,
and that councilmen ap
predate concern.
Pat Cain, speaking as a
Concerned Citizen, said she
and others have petitions to
put on a proposed lax limit
ation on the November ball
ot. and askrd for volunteers
tn help drculale therm. Her
phone number ia 9453945.
The recent six percent
hike acn&gt;M the bard in
residential property I soess
men is came in for protests
and Ms. Cain said "we need a
tax rebellion, at least with
votes."
Bob Wallin said hit con­
cern was lhe escalating tax
base, and he believed it to be
a h-cal issue. "We should gel
fair assessments in our home
town. People should stand
up and My this is enough'."
Several said they got no
Mlisfaction from appealing
to lhe board «f review.
City Assessor Don Jsmes
cxplsined that lhe six per
cent increase was lhe result
of the rtudy made by the
coucty's equalization depart
meat.
ITesentation of the budafor 1978 79 haa been
yed until the April 10
meeting because of the
March 28 hearing on rev­
enue sharing.
Jaaperse said lhe parks
r-&gt;nimiiiee met with the
men's slow pitch sofeball
league and the women's
softball league and they
agreed to have the women
use the new diamond at the
(i*li hatchery park form 5 to
II p.m. on Mondays and
Tuesdays, and the men's

league on Wednesday and
Thursdays. In return, they
will pay for the lighting,
take care of the field and
keep it clean.
Among the bills approved
was$5,312 maintenance con­
tract with Honeywell for at
the waste treatment plant
from Feb. 1.1978,10 Jan. 31.
1979.
In an unusual letter, lhe
council was thanked by the
Odd Fellows and Reliekahs
for the excellent snow re­
moval job done during the
January storm.

Some
Suggestions:

Save Gas
and Dollars
1--Keep your car well-tuned. A badly running
engine increases gas consumption enormously.

2-Keep tires property inflated (this has a second
benefit in increased safety).

3--Try to eliminate the unnecessary trips. Going
into town? Run two or three errands at one time.
4--lf you're a commuter, share the ride. Two or
three in a car don't use appreciably more gas
than one. And having company is fun, too.

5--The stress in new car marketing is on gas and
efficiency. Do your homework and get the car
you need which will be most efficient to run.
6—If your car has air conditioning, use it only in
the hottest weather.
7-Follow factory-recommended maintenance
schedules. Your car will run better and last
longer, saving both fuel and mon*»y.
-

Reduce Your
Heat Bills
1-Insulate your home or business building, or
increase existing insulation. Six inches used to
be considered adequate, but many homeowners
are increasing this to 12 in ceilings and roofs.

2-lnstall storm windows or insulated glass
windows to reduce the loss of heat through
windows.
3-Dialing down is standard now. Most folks find
they can be comfortable with the thermostat set

Save Energy by
The Way You Live:
1-Use your appliances for peak efficiency. Don't
run the washer, dryer or dishwasher until you
have a full load. Don't run appliances except
when they're needed. If you have the oven on,
use it to prepare more than one dish.

4--Make your home as tight as possible. Caulk or
close cracks and holes, especially around
window and door frames. Check the foundation
for openings. Weatherstrip doors and windows.

r

Egypt In the 1970s

2-Since your furnace is probably the biggest
user of energy in the home, it should be kept in
good operating order. Have the burner adjusted
for efficient heating. Keep the furnace and flue
clean. Replace or clean Ithe filters frequently in a
forced air system.
3-The water heater is a major energy user, and
some of the same suggestions apply to it as the
furnace. If it bums gas or oil a well-adjusted
burner can save fuel. Get one with adequate
insulation, so that water does not cool quickly.
Reduce the heat setting.

In 1976. Mrs. Delores

executive secretary lo Rich­
ard Fluke, and Mrs. Kathryn
Ferri*, who was then pre
tident of the Pennock Hosp
ital Auxiliary, developed the
idea for a Tour Guild which
would be a part of the
Auxiliary.
The idea was presented to
Patrick Vaughan, assistant
administrator of Penn.rk
Hospital, who helped bring
lite idea to a reality. The
Guild was organized in Feb­
ruary. 1977, with Mrs.
Kathy Main as ehairman.
Iasi year approximately
350 children and adults from
the area visited Pennock

4--Lighting is getting a lot of attention, and wo
often waste it. Turn lights off when you leave the
room. Reduce the light level to just what is
needed. See whether you could get by with a
lower wattage lamp, or change from incandes­
cent to flourescent lights.

6-Close window drapes or shades when outside
light is not needed.

Owners
Please attend your annual Township Board meeting on
April 1,1978 where a proposed two (2) mill-5 year road millage
will be discussed. The Barry County Road Commission has
proposed this two (2) mill levy to the Board of Commissioners
and the Township Supervisors for the following reasons:
1. There has been no increase in gas or weight taxes since
1973. Since that time gasoline and diesel fuel costs have tripled
and asphalt materials have more than doubled in cost and new
equipment has increased 10% or more each year.
2. Many miles of primary roads (and some local roads) are
in immediate need of bituminous resurfacing. These roads
were built with prime and double seal construction which is
only intended to last 5-10 years, after which time they need a
new bituminous mat surface. Many of these roads are now
20-40 years old.
3. No immediate relief is anticipated from the state and
federal government. The proposed state transportation
package, if passed would not even offset the effect of inflation
over the last 5 years, much less finance a resurfacing program.
4. Presently the Townships must conduct all operations on
only one (1) mill, leaving little for local road improvements.
After the incorporated cities and villages receive their
share of the two (2) mills the Townships would receive half to
be used for their designated road projects and the Road
Commission would receive half for primary road resurfacing.
Based on the tentative equalization schedule for 1978, the
governmental units would receive the following approximate
amounts:

Writes ‘Dear Parents'
By Cameras McIntyre
Have you ever stopped to
consider that your wealth
and the wealth of our nation
ia our youngsters? The Bible
declares this a number of
ttones and Russia knows thia
troth.
Today's children are the
only hope thia world has of
overcoming the great pro­
blems that it faces. Today's
children are tomorrow's d'
uens. and if we really desire
improvement in human life
in the world, we must start
with the children.
I consider my generation
as a whole has failed. The
great empires ol past hist­
ory have failed because they
faded to produce a generat­
ion of children that knew
and practiced living the kind
of life that they were creat­
ed for. For instance read
about the Babylonian. Per­
sian. Greek and Roman Em
plres.
Before we think about
some other things, let us ask
ourselves this question. Do
you suppose if our children
had the opportunity to
choose their parents, they
would have chosen us? Turn
it over from all sides in your
mind. Parents show by ex­

ample the qualities that
most children develop; so
parents, set an example that
will produce a child that
becomes a good God fearing
citizen. That is our right and
responsible duty.
We know that the first
nine months of life of the
child is closely connected to
the life and welfare of the
mother, and that should
continue until the child be
comes an adult. We have a
world wide philosophy that
hinders what haa been men­
tioned. It is the common
thought, by most peoples,
that we shall do what we
want to do in spite of any
consquences. This attitude is
shared by Christians, heathee and rebgious groups.
That is queer, when we stop
to think, that a person has
no control about his coming
and going in his life, in this
world.
Now. when that marvel­
ous piece of humanity ia
born, it enters into the home
as a baby. What happens in a
very short time is the most
important yean of a child's
life. It takes only a few
months to mold that baby
into an individual character.
That molding Is done by the

Water, Sewer Rate Hikes
Back on Council Agenda
Hastings residents rec­
eived a reprieve Iasi month
when the round] rejected a
pr p sed increase in their
water and sewer rates, but
it probably will be short
lived as Monday night a new
pr p sal hiking the rates
was r~eivcd and may I*
acted on next month to go
Ini - effect July 1st.
The pr-posed increases,
made f II -wing a study by
the engineering firm of
J ones &amp; Henry, aren't much
l wer than th- sc rejected in
February.
Aiderman Robert Birke.
chairman of the waler and
sewer e- -mmit t ee. said Jones
* Henry's rep-rt cited a
need fr $521,285 in revenue
a that the system can meet
it a b nding obligations and
pr vide pr-per maint­
enance.
The pr-p-sed rates would
hike the minimum quarterly
wa er bill from $7.90 Io
$8.40. a 633 per cent b.«t.
and the minimum sewer bill
fr m $6,601 -$11.90, an 80.3
percent increase. Birke said
tlie average h-usch-ld per­
haps used 2 300 cubic feet
•f water raising the average
water bill fr-m $18.88 to $21
and the average sewer bi'.!
fr m $18.48 t - $3332
The ordinance change
w -uld reduce the number of
ra edivisi oat-- three. Cuslmere using up to 10.000
cubic fee w uld pay 84
ern s per 100 cubic fret. and
th sc using up
200.000
w uld pay 70 cents per 100
cubic feet, and those using
m re than 200.000 would
pay 35ccnlsa 100cubic feet.
Birke said the large users
w uld bear the maj-r porti n -f the increased c-sis.
Hirke said the revenue
pr jecti n was based on the
municipality's requirements
ver the next three yean,
but the rate structure might
have i- be reviewed every
year. Birke said the “least
painful" recommendations
were made.
C-uncilmen look the first
step t-wards banning the
drinking and p sscMi--n of
in xicants in the city's park
with the first reading of an
amendment of the parks
- rdinar. e inc-rp&gt;nting the
changes. The amendment
will lie &lt;&gt;n the table until the
next c -uncil session.
Members of the Goodwill
Class of the First United
Meth-dist Church again
were -n hand Io follow up on
their suggestion that 'he
ban made.
Mary Jane Straley. who
lives adjacent
the park,
said she was still against the
ban. especially if it ean’t be
enf reed. She wd we can't
even dean up the litter."
Harry Burke, speaking for
the Goodwill Class, agreed
that enf-rtement -f the ban
w uld be difficult but May--r
Ivan Snyder said he believed
the enf rcement could be

handled with (he personnel
"we have“and that he had
discussed it with Chief of
P- licT Richard Sunk* who
agreed.
Aiderman William Cook,
wh-- m--ved f--r ths adoption
•4 the liqu- r ban. suggested
that it be brought up for
review after the end of ths
summer season to determine
if the ban has had an effect

about 2*/i per cent leu than
the count in the previous
year. Traffic officers point

likely increase by one or two
percent when records for
the year are completed.
Traffic officers feel that
several factors again share
2,000 loll Iasi year. These
would include the lowered
national speed limit, a slow­
er paced economy in some
sectors, some labor unrest
and its effect on employment
and transportation, concerns
about costs of motor vehicle
operations, and the on going
efforts of police and other
agencies in the traffic safety
Contributing to the lower
annual toll last year for
Michigan waa a lower death
count in December. Provis­
ionally December had 129
deaths, which were 33 or
about 20 per cent less than
the count of 162 recorded for
that month in 1976. There

Being a faithful listener Io

still friends after forty
years."Then, much quieter..
.."And his wife's friend."
I w-nder what the reason
is that the Mayor now

happened that the question

This citixen. plus others,

To the Editor.
At the City Council meet­
ing March 27th I presented
f-r Mayor Ivan Snyder's
benefit and help in selecting
a competent replacement for
• •ur bel-ved Chief of Police
Dick Suni»r. a booklet entit­
led "Police Chief Selection",
A Handbook for local Gt.vcrnmenl" written by Mich­
ael J. Kelly. However. May­
or Snyder indicated by his
disinterest, he was not imp­
ressed by this "unknown”
author. Not wishing to take
valuable time I didn't list
Mr. Kelly's credentials but I
w--uld like to d-&gt; so now:
Michael J. Kelly. Dean of
the University of Maryland
School &gt;&gt;f Law, received a
B.A. fr- m Princeton, a
P.H.D.in Hist-ry from Kings
C- liege, Cambridge, and an
LL.B from Yale. He haa
served as a legislative assist­
ant to a U.S. Congressman
and as counsel and aide to
May--r Kevin While of B»stton. As an aide to Mayors
Th-mas D'Alesandro III and
William D-nald Schaefer oi
Baliim re. Kelly dealt with
Criminal Justice problems
and with Law enforcement
C-grams funded under the
w Enforcement Assitance
Administration. Kelly, a con­
sultant to the Police Foundali&gt;-n was formerly a Fellow
of the LEA AS National
Institute of Law Enforce­
ment and Executive Direct­
or of the Maryland Com­

mission on Judicial Reform.,
also this book has a Library
of Congress registration
number which is 75-37463.
1 am sorry Mayor Snyder
wu not "interested in read­
ing book*" as I believe thia
particular one would be of
great benefit to him in
selecting a properly qualif­
ied individual for this most
important appointment.
I was pleased to find my
Alderman interested enough
(o ask me. following the
meeting, about the book and
to indicate it would be a
good source of information.
Sorry this is such a tong
letter but the disinterest
shown by our Mayor
to

thing that upsets this resid­

The Banner has offered

Barry County Wooed by Two
Anti-Poverty Agencies
By HUGH FULLFJtTUN
Suddenly. tw-. community
acti--n agencies fn-m outride
Barry County are fighting
f-r the right In be the funnel
that brings federal anti pov­
erty fund* to Barry.
. Th* Human Resource*
G-mmittee of the Giunly
B»rd of G-mmitrioaer* Fri­
day heard representatives
fn-nt both agencies tell why
t hey ah&lt;&gt;uld be in charge "f a
pr p.wd year round Head
Start program for the
county.
Al-rng the way. both agen­
cies gave a pitch to become
the county designated CAP
agency, through which most
federal anti poverty fund*
w. uld be directed.
The agencies are the Calh-un Action Agency, which
ha* been overseeing several
federal programs in Barry
G-unty. and a newcomer io
Barry, Kight Cap. Inc., head­
quartered in Stanton. Eight
Cap is the anti poverty agen­
cy for Montcalm. Ionia. Gra­
tiot and Isabella G-untle*.
The immed'Me issue is
whether Barry County
wants t«» endorse the Cal­
houn agency as the umbrella
f-r the new Head Start
pr-gram. &lt;&gt;r let a new
agency handle it.
Head Start ia a federallyfunded preschool program
f t disadvantaged youngsi rr». 11 IS intended to bring
p«-r children up !&lt;• the level
of children from average
homes by the time they
enter kindergarten. Has
tings has had a small Head
Start program run only dur­
ing the summer months,
•p-nwrrd by the school
district. Hut the Hastings
Sc It-, 4 District ha*indicated
it is n-4 interested in admin
•sirring a year round pro
gram for the entire county.
'DieCalhoun Action Agen
ry. which found out that
178.000 had been earmarked
for Barry County for a Head
Start pn-gram. had already
begun plans fi-r such a
pr-gram
CAA Director James G&gt;*
ringham Inkl the commis­
si-ners committee Friday
that he had contacted lbe
Hasting* schools, and find
ing they were not interes­
ted. has fi-ked for another
l eal agency to administer
the program. A likely one,
he arid, is the Hastings Day
Care Center, whieh is invol­
ved in day care and early
chDdbtsid development act
ivittes.
G-stingham said his staff
ha* begun a county wide
si udy t o del ermine t he num
ber of eligible preschool
y. ungster*. and where they
are I--cat rd in Barry Gxmty.
with an eye toward deter
mining where the Head
Start centers should be loca
led.
Recently Eight Cap also
became interested In spuna-ring Head Start in Barry
G-unty. apparently through
the efforts of Daryl Hartxler. community education
director of the L*kewood
School District. who i* also
chairperson of Eight Cap.
Thoma* Sehley. Eight
Cap dirvct-r. contacted Rae
H-ar*. wh- i« chairman of
the commissioners* Human
Resources G-mmittee, and
the arranged the interview*
Friday.
Schley was the first io
appear befi -re t he c- -remit I ee
Friday With him was Tim
Kn--w|ton. who is director 4
Head Start program* in the
f-ur-c-unty Eight Cap area.
Sehley taid that to be
successful. Head Start mutt
have the support &lt;&gt;f local
group* the commissioners,
aeh&gt;«4 dial nets, Department
of S-ctd Service*. Health
Department and day care
een’er*. He emphasised that
all must work together if
disadvantaged ch.ldren are
g ing I- be a**i*ted.

In answer In a question.
Schley said that Eight Cap
had talked t&lt;&gt; two school
system* in Barry CounlyLakew-x-d and Delton, but
had d--ne no other prepara
t..ry work fi-r Head Start
here.
Knowlton said that Eight
Cap operate* Head Start
■ ■uiride the *ch--4 system in
It* area. He said that par
ent* are brought into the
educational program, and a
Head Start worker visit*
each child* home -&gt;nee a
m-nlb- Parent* al*- serve
.-n the cunei! which helps
set Head Start policy.
Can4yn G-leman. chair­
man of the board of commis­
sioner*. asked how many
children would be served by
the program. Knowlton did
not answer the question
directly, but said that else­
where. Eight Cap spend* an
average of 11,138 per child.
Mrs. G4eman followed up
with a question on locations
•nd hiring practices. Knowl­
ton said that under Eight
Cap. Barry Giunty would
have three or four Head
Start Lcation*. Each center
would have a teacher, a
teacher aide, and some aasia
tant*. wh&gt;&gt; could be high
*ch.«4 student* or parent*.
»• that the adult-child ratio
would be ooe-to-flve.
Knowlton said that Eight
Cap prefers to hire staff
fr -nt the community where
each center Is located.
G-mmissioner Victor Eek
ardt commented that in his
area of the county, there
w.-uld be a distinct advant­
age in having Eight Cap
administer the Head Start
pn-gram. At present. Barry
G-uniy children In the Lake­
wood Sch&gt;«-I District eannot
attend the Head Start pro
gram in 1-ake Odessa, be
cause it is in Ionia County.
Having -ne agency in birth
c-untiea would eliminate
t hi* pn-Mem.
Tie Eight Cap team was
f ll-wed by G&gt;sringham. the
CAA direct.*. and Al Go­
nick. deputy director of
CAA.
G-ssingham said that in
Calh-un G&gt;ualy. the CAA
delegate* much of the Head
Start job to the school
district*, except in one area
where a rural scbx4 distort
d&lt;«s n&lt;&gt;i have nmm for the
program.
In Harry, he said, because
the sch-a-ls d&gt;&gt; not seem
interested, the Hastings
day Care Center has "ex­
pressed *-me interest.”
He said that initially.
Barry C-unty would have
two or possibly three Head
Start rites, using the $78,000
which the federal Depart
meni --f Health, Education
and Welfare has earmarked.
Within a few years, he said,
a maj--r expansion in Head
Start is expected, an nv-rv
riles are likely.
Because CAA** Head
Start expense* average
slightly -ver 11.000 per
child. C-ssingham said Inal
i lie pr gram might serve a*
many a* 75 youngster* the
first year.
G-x*inAham told (he o&gt;m
missi- ners that Head Start
w.-uld have input fr--m the
parent advis-ry council,
which he said actually make*
policy-it d.&lt;* not merely
advise. Head Start employ
ees. he said, “would be local
people fmm this county."
In answer to a question
fr m Mrs, H- are. Gwaing
ham said the administration
of (ha program would be
similar t- the Senior Nutri­
tion Pr-gram. which is run
by t he Commission on Aging
under a contract with the
CAA.
HEW has held up -aCAA'* application fir fund*
fi-r a Barry County Head
Start pr-gram until it gets
an indicati-m &lt;»f which agen­
cy I-cal authorities would

prefer. Cossingham said.
Thi* indication c-uld be
made by the county cenmi*
•loner*.
Although HEW ha* the
final decision &gt;m which
agency is used, the federal
department usually goes
with the wishes of local
authorities, he laid. So the
preference of the commit,
sinners is likely to be the
deciding factor.
CAA is continuing it*
study of Barry G-unty fir
Head Start, Cossingham
■aid, because whoever gets
the y-b, the information is
needed a^-n. CAA is getting
information from the *rhool*
and DSS to help it locate the
needy children to be served,
and is h-king fi-r rites with
needed food preparation
facilities.
G-nick said that Hasting*
w--u!d pr-bably have one
Head Start rite, because of
the concentration of people.
The survey presently being
c-nducted will help tn the
•election of other sites, he
■aid.
G-ssingham said that
CAA-administered Head

Stan sites would have one
teacher and one teacher aide
fir n- tn--re than 15 children,
which he said meets federal
guideline*. CAA.
said,
“involves the parents every­
where we can. any way we
can.”
G-nick added thal th®

After discussion of Head
Stan. G-asingham and the
commissioners considered
the suggestion that CAA be
designated as CAP (Com
munity Action Program)
agency f-r Barry G-unty.
G-ssingham said that if
the commissioners make
CAA their CAP agency,
rn-re funds would be avail
able f-r the county fir
vari'-ut community pro­
grams. More federal aid, he
said, might be available for
the G-mmisri-n -n Aging,
expanri'-n of public trans
p--nation, water and swere
assistance. youth pr-gram
and seni-r citizen h--using.

G-ssingham said that until
recently. CAA did not know
tha' any other agency was
interested in serving Barry
C-uniy.
G-ssingham said it irri­
tated him t hat "no one else is
interested until there are
resources available." He
added that it ha* been a
"real strain" fi-r CAA to give
services in Barry. Branch
and St. Joseph G-unties the
past several year*, and CAA
has benefited "-nly mini
mally" fr-m the arrange
men!
G-sungham also briefly
discussed the possibility of

VanderVeen Has High
Hopes for Nomination
Fort:er Cong. Richard F.
VanderVeen of Grand Ra­
pids. n-w facing a field of
nine candidates for th*
Democratic nomination f-r
U.S. Senate, thinks he's
likely t&lt;&gt; be on* of about
three stiU in th* race by th*
time of the primary election
in August.
VanderVeen. wh- repre­
sented part of Barry County
fi-r two terms in Congress,
came to Hastings last Thur*
day I- speak to the c-unly
Dem-cratic Party. While
here, he also held a ennver
sati--n with the press and
radi-- f-r nearly an hour.
VanderVeen n-t only
thinks he's likely to be the
Dem--erst ic candidate fi-r
Senate, he think* he can
beat Robert Griffin, th*
Republican incumbent. by
concentrating -n Griffin's
rec--rd in the Senate.
Calling Griffin "a leader in
the ultra-conservative wing
-f ’he Republican Party."
VanderVeen «tr-ngly criti
fixed the Michigan senator's
• ■pp-siIi-&gt;n to the Panama
Canal treaties. Under Grif­
fin’s leadership. Vander
Veen said. "A handful of
pe-ple can frustrate the
wh--le free world" on the
treaties.
On s-cial issue*, lab-r
legislati -n. conservation and
••thcr questions, Griffin's re
c rd make* him beatable.
VanderVeen said. In hi* last
elect i n. VanderVeen said.
Griffin “diverted people...&lt;m
the busing issue.” Vander
Veen d e*n'i think Griffin
ean use the canal treaties
the same way this year.
One"f the big pr--blent* of
VanderVeen and other
Dem cratic candidate*, he
said, is fund raising. With so
many candidates still In the
Dem cratic race, big o-ntri
but r* are reluctant to
ch - se a candidate yet. he
said
VanderVeen said he will
need
t-- $500,000
f r the primary race and
an-liter $500,000 fi-r the
rac* against Griffin, tf h* ia
л mlna'ed.
VanderVeen said he has to
raise en- ugh ni-ney "to
v»rr me the recognition
faei-r." since he is n&gt;&gt;&lt;
presently as well kn-wn as
Griffin, h wever. he p-int*
u . tie did t ha- successfully
when he ran f r G-ngr*s*.
VanderVeen has been cam

VanderVeen listed jobs and

said, are crime, energy, de­
cline in value 4 th* d- llar.
and -he high c-«l 4 health

VanderVeen endorsed

recommends that your dog should be
blood-tested for Heart Worm in April or
before the mosquito season. This blood
test is done by your veterinarian and
takes about 5 minutes time.
After a negative blood test prevent­

be administered every day during the

Of c**urse. diseases can be

kind of silly to g*. to all that

small quantities lhe home
gardener would use. they
make a Im of sense.
The containers used fie
gr-wing transplants aren't
critical- except in the case of
melons, cucumbers, squash

New Intoxication
Law Now In Effect
Michigan's new Public Act
339 went into effect Jan. 15,
and under its terms, person*
found intoxicated in public
will no longer be automatkally sent to jail.
The alternative will b* to
refer "incapacitated" indiv
iduals. a* defined by lhe law,
to various local health ser
vices.

However, persons found
to be Intoxicated in a public
place and dirwctly endanger
ing the safety of others x
property or causing a public
disturbance will still be sub^
jeet tn arrest. The new law
in no way affects other
current alcohol related of­
fense* such a* DU IL (driv­
ing under the influence of
liquor) ut impaired driving.
Pub|&gt;c Act 339, by itself,
will not s&lt;*4vr the alcoholism
problem in Michigan, but
will be helpful in providing
m*&gt;rc human* treatment
mechanism for persons who
have lost control over their
drinking and should be a
major cast finding instru
ment in getting at those who

Notice of Authorization of Barry County Bonds
PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that on
April 11,1978, the Board of Commissiuneis of Barry County adopted a resolution
authorizing the issuance of bonds in the
amount of $4,960,000.00 to finance pan
of the cost of sewer improvements in the
Gun Lake area for the Townships of
Orangeville and Yankee Springs.
Said resolution describes said im­
provements, their service area, cost and
estimated usefulness, bond terms, man­
ner of bond payments and use of
proceeds, and incorporates the contract
between the County and the Townships
setting out the details of the acquisition,
financing and operation of the project.
Said bond resolution also pledges the
fu faith and credit of the County as
secondary security for payment of such
bonds in the following language:
"Pursuant to the authorization pro­
vided in Act 185, Public Acts of
Michigan, 1957, as amended, the full
faith and credit of the County is herehy
pledged for the prompt payment of the
principal of and interest on the bonds as
the same shall become due. If for any
reason there are not sufficient funds on
hand from the contractual payments to
pay the principal of and interest on the

i

bonds when due, upon written notifica­
tion by the Board to the County
Treasurer of the amount of such
deficiency, the County Treasurer shall
promptly deposit into the debt retire­
ment fund for said bonds the amount of
such deficiency out of County funds. If it
becomes necessary for the County to so
advance any such moneys, it shall be
entitled to reimbursement from any
surplus from time to time existing in the
fund from which said principal and
interest are primarily payable, or from
any other legally available source. Thu
County recognizes and covenants that
to the extent necessary to provide funds
to meet its full faith and credit pledge
herein provided, it is obligated to levy ad
valorem taxes against the taxable
property in the County, which taxes,
pursuant to Section 6, Article IX of the
Michigan Constitution of 1963, are
without limitation as to rate or amount."
Further information concerning said
bonds and the matters set out in this
notice may be secured from the County
Clerk s office.

will hive a staff reduction of
three teachers instead of six
according to the tentative
budget presented to the
Board of Education at their
regular monthly meeting
held Tuesday night in the
Junior High study hall.
Superintendent of Schools
Richard J Guenther said the
enrollment figure could be
the "major variable" in the
final budget which includes
an increase of five and
one-half percent over the
1977-78 budget.
Anticipated expenditures
for 197879 total $6,116,971

with receipts figured at
$6,499,983. That would leave
a balance of June 30,1979. of
$383,012.
Supt. Guenther said the
100 percent payment of 1977
delinquent taxes by the
Barry County Board of Com
misaionen "is a tremendous
assist in preparing the bud­
get and we are most grate
ful to them.
Supt. Guenther said the
staff reduction of three is
expected, with no layoffs
anticipated.
Expenditures planned in­
clude $42,000 in special pro­
jects from 1975-76 tax delin­
quencies for roof repairs,
hlacklnpping. conduit and
plastering at Central Audi-

torium. repair lo cement
.steps, cafeteria tables for
Junior High and repairs on
the Johnson Field tennis
courts.
The budget includes up to
seven percent salary and
fringe benefit increases, de­
pendent on the cost of living.
However, retirements,
leaves of absences and re
signations may reduce the
seven percent figure.
The budget allows for a
four and one half average
increase in non budgeted
items.
Instructional costs total
$3,926,895. including

Cabinet-Level Status

For Education Is Overdue
The elevation of education to cabmet -lavai
status in the fader at government. as propos­
ed by President Carter in his State of the
Union address, draws praise from the
Hastings Education Association. Plans were
revealed Friday foe the creation of the now
department.
■'Teachers and students in thio nation have
been buried too long in the giant lleefth.
Education and WeHaro bureaucracy.’’ says
Norm Richardson, president, Hastings Edu­
cation Association "A separata Department
of Education will aatabiirti education as a
national priority, a* citizens have wanted It to
bo; permit better and more effective use of
federal dollars for education; and open
drtcusaren for the first time in our nation's
history on an education pokey for thio
country."
Richardson points out that the creation of
an education department enjoys wide sup­
port. having been endorsed by the National
PTA. the National Education Association
INEAl. the National School Boards Associa­
tion. the American Association of School
Administrators, the Coalition of American
Public Employees, and si* former U.S.

The leechers associations national hood
quvtars. the NEA, mounted * national
letter-writing campaign that generated thou­
sands of letters to the White House. Other
educators and their organizations cooperat­
ed with the NEA to secure President Carter s
proposal for an education department.
Richardson says.
The NEA vms rasponalbio lor introduction
of a b« in 1808 that led to creation of the first
department of education in 1867. This
department was not of cabinet status, but
was within ihe Department of Interior, whore
it remained unti almost 28 years ago when h
became a port of HEW.
Richardson reompheebes what NEA Presi­
dent John Ryor has told teacher association
leaders, "h may be as long as two years
before legislation is enacted by Congress.
However, with the substantial support we
already have in Congress. the endorsement
of President Carter, and the continued
efforts of teachers in the NEA. we wfll firefly
see education become a priority in America
through the establishment of a separate
Department of Education."

To the Editor:
Spring is sprung and bi­
cycles are blooming every-

I'd like to offer a lew tips
on cycling safety every
cyclist should know but
many seem to have never
heard.
First and foremost....Ride
on the RIGHT, with the
traffic. A person riding on
the right is more easily
avoided and a car can slow
down and wait for him. or
her. Should an accident hap­

pen. the cyclist'* speed tub
traded from the car's speed
means less force in the
collision.
If a person rides faring
traffic It’s much harder for
the ear to avoid the bicycle.
Add the speed of the bike to
the speed of the car and you
get a lot more force in a
collision.
Besides, the law says,
"Ride on the right.”
Second...wear a helmet!
The two best available for
bicycling are Bell and MSR.
They can be found in the
better bike shops and both
are expensive (about 130).
But if one keeps you out of
the hospital it will have
more than paid for itself.
MSR will replace free
helmet damaged in an acci
dent if you send it back to
them and tell them how It
happened.
I don't know if Bell does
this or not.
Ride courteously at all
limes.
Never argue with any
motorized vehicle..You lose
every time.
Whenever possible choose
lesser traveled streets and
roads and avoid highways
unless they have paved
shoulders.
Happy bicycling.

No
Mere Man
BY STAN CLANTON
Minister, Barry County
CUreftMCMrt
"I know men; and I tsi you thet Jesus Chriet ia no
mere man. Between him and every other pereon in the
world there ia no possible term of comparison.
Alexander. Caesar. Charlemagne. and I have founded
empires. But on what &lt;Sd wo rest the creation* of our
genius? Upon force Jew* Christ founded Ns empire
upon love; and at this hour mMona of men would (fie
for him."
Napoleon Bonaparte said that. "No more man,"
he said. That’s true, for Jew* wee the Son of God.
And that fact io a truth that touches each of our fives
in a very personal way. The Creator became the
creature, the eternal became contemporary, and the
truth became personal. Since Jesus was the Son of
God, he has some answer* we need - about
standards, values, destiny, and purpose in Me. Is there
life after death? If the Son of God has spoken about it.
there's no more speciAatnn
But the (fitterence between the Christian and the
rest of the world is that the truth about Jews has
made a difterence in his life. A young man who robbed
a .lore wa* being counseled by Ihe jafi chaplain. When
asked about hie conviction*, he responded. "Oh yea. I
believe in Jews'' But what tfiftersnee had it made?
Certain fact* are significant. They influence not
just our bahst*, but out thinking and our ectivkiee our life style.
Yes. Jesus has impressed the world, but the
question ». 'Ha* he changed my fife?"

CAA Given $62,000

Administrative Hike
The Calhoun Community
Action Agency (CAA).
which include* Barry Coun­
ty. has been informed that it
will receive a 55% increase
in its administrative fund­
ing.
In a letter sent to Arthur
Adams, hoard chairman of
lhe CAA, the Community
Services Administration
(CSA I indicated that the
agency will receive a $112,000
increase from its 1977 fund­
ing level of $113,000, bring­
ing the agency’s new fund­
ing level to $175,000
Adams stated. "This is the
CAA's first increase in its
administrative funding for
over 10 years. With our
tremendous growth over the
jwist eight years, the addi­
tional administrative fund
ing is not only timely, hut
badly needed.”
The CSA letter statist
that "first priority for in
creases in the level of ap
proved program shall hr to
permit cost of living in
creases. Priority shall l&gt;e
placed on bringing the
salary and wages of fulltime
CA/\ employees to an in­
come level higher than the
CSA poverty guidelines. An
increase of 5% was allocated
with this goal in mind.
"Second priority shall be
for your agency to strength
en its basic administrative
capability. Increases may be
utilized to meet the cost of
program maintenance and
or administration.
“After the first two priori
ties have been satisfied,
your agency is encouraged
tn utilize the increase in
funds for innovative pro
grams, which meet special
local need}, or which fill
gaps in existing service* ami
which act as advocates for
the poor. We encourage you
to hire a staff person to
coordinate services, mobilize
resources, and organize
Harry. Branch, and St.
Joseph Countirs. We also
encourage you to find re­
sources to provide outreach
nervier* for these areas."
James II. Cossingham.
executive director of the .

CAA. said. “Naturally, we
are quite pleased to receive
this first increase. All Michi­
gan CAAs have been raised
to a minimum funding level
of $125,000. but few have
received this type of in­
crease overall. This increase
also indicates the adminis­
tration's commitment to ex­
panding services into Barry.
Branch and St. Joseph
Counties, if lhe respective
County Boards of Commi*
sioners an- receptive lo lhe
idea. With that in mind, we
will bi- looking first to Barry
County, where lhe Board of
Commissioners has already
signaled their intent to de
signalr our agency as their
Community Action Agency."
Cossingham indicated that
the agency has nol develop­
ed a plan for lhe expendi­
ture of the new resource*,
but indicated that he would
submit. a .plan fur Board
approval at the May CAA
Board meeting.

Extend ,
Feed Grain

Sign-up

Thru May IS
Michigan farmers have
additional lime to enroll in
the 1978 Wheat and Feed
Gram Set-Aside Program.
The sign up period ha* been
extended from May 1
through May 15.
The enrollment period
was extended because, from
the sign up to date, it wa*
apparent that farmers were
not yet familiar with all of
the provisions of the pro­
gram and particularly the
additional benefit* from the
changes announced on
March 29. These changes
authorized additional diver­
sion of cropland and provid­
ed payments under the feed
grain program and permit­

ted wheat program partici­
pants a payment for grazing
or harvesting as hay, green
chop, or silage, a percent
age of their planted wheat
acreage.

Applications for enroll­
ment in the 1978 Wheat and
Feed Grain Set-Aside Pro
gram will now be accepted in
all county ASCS offices
through May 15.

A record group of the year
gathered Wednesday. April
19. at the court house for the
monthly meeting of the
Barn- County Concerned
Taxpayer*. Following the
reading of the minutes of the
previous meeting and the
treasurer'* report, the meet­
ing wav opened for discus­
sion. The topic for the eve­
ning was "local government"
with the main thrust of the
discussion being the Tax
Limitation proposal to
amend the Michigan Con­
st Hut ion in the general elec­
tion In November. 1978.
Commissioner* Orville
Hammond. Myron Johncoek
and T. Edward McPhariin.
Supervisor* Justin Cooley.
Joel Welty. Theodore Me
Kvlvvy and Wayne Miller
amt Barry County Grant Co­
ordinator Kensinger Jone*
were prrwnt.
Ted McKelvey gave the
Supervisor*' report regard
ing the wishes of the people
on the two mill levy pro
p&lt;&gt;M-d for roads. He reported
that the people generally
felt against the added mill
age ami instead suggested
that the extra monies from
the increased assessments
and the m mies from the re­
volving delinquent lax fund
tw given to the Road Com
mission. Il was also sug
grsled that the uueslion of
the two mill levy be put to a
vote of I he people in Novem
tier McKelvey concluded
stating that he was in hopes
I hat the Board of Commis
.inner* would see fit to give
the Road Commission some
money (or roads.
&lt; •■mmis.iorw-r McPhariin
»a*d there realty wasn't that
much in the delinquent lax
fund a. the lax roll* were
n&gt;4 in to the county treasur­
er yet. and the interest rale
i» unknown on the lax fund
at the present lime. The
total additional revenue
from increased assessment*
can't he pinned down as yet.
New construction, however,
would add to the tax roll.
Whatever extra sum that
the county may realize nay
hr abwirbed hy an increase
ol about $80,000 in wage* for
courthouse employees,
which i* presently being
negotiated. a» reported by
Mrl-hariin.
Gram Coordinator Jone*
asked how the millage for
roads would affect indivi
duals' taxes. Ted McKelvey
advised that it would cost
taxpayer* an additional $2
per * I1,000 of assessed valua
lion.
Former Commissioner Bill
Haye felt that by adopting
the delinquent tax fund by
the Board of Commissioners,
townships wire bring dr
privvd of Mime revenue.
Warren Craft, a resident
of Hastings. inquired why
the increase in taxes from
ihr increased assessment
could not go for road*, and
Justin Cooley explained that
it could, but only if the
tow nship has a voted millage
provision for road*. The two
mill request carries a provi
•ion that one mill goes to the
Road Commission and the
other mill stay* in the re­
spective township.
Mr. l&lt;ee asked who was
responsible for the sanitary
sewer system being planned
for the Algonquin lake
Area. He stated it was not
fair to the taxpayers as they
had no choice in the matter,
and a referendum was in
order. Justin Cooley explain
i.l that the City ol Hasting*
applied for a federal grant to
u|xlale their sewer system
and according &lt;u federal
guidelines, it mandated that
a study be done on the sur
rounding lake areas as well.
The Housing Commission
came up for diseuwion and
Krn»inger Jones advised
that the ordinance was pas*
rd by the Board of Com
ml.sionrrs subject to ap­
proval of the voter*. In reply
to a question ■« to why it
had not yet been published
in the paper, hr advised that
he fell that it ithe ordin
ante! would appear shortly.
June* further explained that
when he came to thi* area
about three year* ago. he
retired. He wa» subsequent
h appointed to thr Hanning
and Zoning, and later agreed
to try to qualify Barry
Count y for more federal
grants, al which time he was
appointed Barry County
Grant Coordinator Further
explaining. Jones advised
that the housing need in
Barry County is supported

by statistic* that about 5.000
people are qualified Iby age
or income) for senior citi­
zen low income housing and
about 300 have expressed
interest in living In thi* type
of housing.
The question of the Board
of Commissioner* buying
Ihr Blackford property adja­
cent to the Social Services
office was raised and Mr.
McPhariin was asked if the
County was permitted to
buy property by phone. He
advised that certain steps,
such a* signing of paper*, of
course, could not lie done by
phone, but Albert Bell had
made a sufficient number of
phone call* to commissioner*
needed to gain approval for
the purchase. Commissioner
Orville Hammond stated
that he had received about
five calls from constituent*
regarding the sale. Not
knowing anything about
such a purchase, he called
Bell, and was advised then of
Ihr telephone vote. Four
commissioners.
represent
ing a total of 7' &gt; townships
were not called; thus nearly
half of Barry County had no
vote in the issue.
The question of a county
comptroller was raised. Me
l*hariin again explained that
this issue was only tn the
"talking stage" and there
are no immediate plans in
that direction.
A lively, and sometimes
heated, discussion followed
on the subject of Regional
ism and Region III.
McPhariin explained that
thi* is a "planning council”
comprised of a group of five
counties appointed by Gov.
Milliken (Barry. Branch. St.
Joseph. Kalamazoo and Cal
h«iun). Due* tn belong to
Region III are based on the
slate equalized value of the
munly and in the case of
Barry County, the cost is
54,700.
Various citizen* express
nd their views against Re
gion 111 and the general
opinion among the citizens
was that they would like to
mc Barry County out of
Region HI, since member
ship was nut S. requisite to
obtaining funds
McPhariin felt there was
some misunderstanding on
the part of the citizens as to
exactly what Region III is all
about, and hr accepted a
challenge to debate the issue
with Supervisor Welty at
the next monthly meeting.
There will lie two teams of
drbators to discuss the pro*
and eons of Regionalism.
"A little noticed item on
the Michigan Bute ballot

rance for the longrun future
of the U.8. than who I*

Investigate Gunshot Deaths of
Charles and Edith Cross
Barry County sheriff* of
fierrs are investigating the
death* of Charles A. Cross.
64. and his wife, Edith
Geraldine Cross. 62. who
were found d*ad in an up­
stair* bedroom of their burn
ing home early Sunday mor
ning. April 30.
An autopsy performed
later that morning by Dr.
William Walters of Battle
Creek confirmed that the
deaths were due to gunshot
wounds to the head, accord­
ing to Corporal Gary Howell
ol the Sheriff* Department.
Investigating the possi­
bility of a double homicide,
in addition to Howell and
Deputy Tom Hildreth who
were the first officers on the
scene, are Detective* Jerry
Plank and Ken DeMotl and
other members of the
Sheriffs Department. A
state fire marshal is also
investigating as well as the
Stale Police Crime Labors
lory.
The fire at the Cross
Adult Foster
Home at
5211 Messer Road. Free­
port. north of Hastings off
M-43. was discovered short­
ly before 5:30 by Douglas
Forbes of 4660 North Broad
way who was going to milk
his cow*. Forbes called the
Sheriffs Department to re­
port the fire and drove to
the Cross home where he
rescued four persons who
were being cared for at the
home.
Corporal Howell and
Deputy Hildreth arrived
soon after and carrying
flashlight*
they
went
through the flaming home
searching for others. They
found Mr. and Mr*. Cross in
their upstair* bedroom. Mrs.
Cross was lying in the bed
and Mr. Cross was sitting on
the edge, leaning against a
wall.
Howell and Hildreth car­
ried the bodies out along
with the .22 rifle believed to
have been used in the shoot
ing. The gun wa* found with
Mr. Cross.
Howell said they could see
the flames from the roof
while still about a mile away
from the structure, and he
remarked to Hildreth that if
there's anyone in there now.
we’ll never get thrm oul.
However, when they ar
rived they were able to go
through the house and up
Mair* a* the fire was in the
attic. Flames were swirling
down as they i emoved the
second body from the struc­
ture.
The noise from the fire
was "terrific." Howell said.

To the Editor:
On behalf of the Board of
Directors of th* Calhoun
Community Action Agency
and the staff, we wish to
exicnd our deep appreoi
tion to the Barry County
Board of Commissioner* for
their support in designating
this agency aa the Barry
County Community Action
Agency. The Eighl-CAP or
gin nation is a very fine one.
and we are well aware that
the deeiuon was not an easy
one. We are. however, de
lighted that the Barry
County Board of Commit
•toners hax given its support
to this agency and we look
forward to a long and pros­
perous relationship on be
half of the residents of Barry
County.
We would be remiss if we
did not point oul the very
fine working relationships
already established in Barry
County with Mr*. Eloise
Wolf. Director of the Barry
County Commission on
Aging: Mr. Robert Nida.
Barry County Juvenile Jus
lice Court; and Mr. Donald
Miller, Barry County Pro
hate Court. Al the present
time, we also have an ex
rellrnl relationship with the
Barry County Department
of Social Services.
We would also be remiss if
we did not mention Mr
Kensinger Jones. Barry
County Grants Coordinator,
who has been appointed by
the Barry County Board of
Commissioners to serve as 4
member of the CAA Board
of Directors. Ken's efforts
on behalf of Barry County
are untiring and continuous.
His input and insight into
the CAA's planning and re­
source mobilization efforts
have
enhanced
Barry
County tremendously. A re­
cent example is the Head
Start appropriation soon to
he forthcoming for Barry
County. Through Ken's ef
forts working with our
agency, we feel the Head
Start Program, on a full
year basis, will soon he a
reality in Barry County.
i_a.«. but not least, we
wish to thank you and your
very fine newspaper for its
support. We look forward to
your continued assistance as
we strive to work on be­
half of the Barry County
Board of Commissioners and
Barry County residents.
Sincerely.
Arthur Adam.

ROAD COMMISSION
According to thr Federal
Highway Administration.1
4% more miles were driven
in 1977 with only 2.4% more
gasoline being used Report
from Federal figures show
that Americans using auto
mobiles are least responsible
for increases in fuel use.
The growth in demand for
every other petroleum pro
duct in 1977 far exceeded
the demand for gasoline,
even though Americans
drove more miles than ever
before These figures mdi
cate that gasoline taxes *.u
not keep pare with road
maintenance costs.
The erne sled freezing and
thawing ol the road surface

during the winter is causing
considerable damage to the
surface ol older, weaker
blacktop surfaces. In some
rases the amount of spring
damage is an indication of
poor road conditions even
before the winter has
struck. "The weaker the
pavement to begin with. Ihr
more breakup there will be."
The Road Commission has
been forced to delay resur
facing because of budget
limitations. A good long
range resurfacing program
is needed to forestall serious
and extensive damage to the
surface resulting in expen
live reconstruction to re
store the road to good
quality. Due to the reduct ion
oi funds to the Hoad Com

inflationary costs, the Hoad

Symphony Orchestra have now been finalised aad there »
aanething fr everyne in next year"a offerings. An effort
la being made tn bring more of the familiar music to the
audience while continuing the orchestra society* policy of

(overs.
The waaon opens on Friday and Saturday. Sept. 22 23
with the annual "Pope Concert" at the Federal Center
Ballroom. Aa in paat seasons the audience will be aealed al
tables, cabaret style. and will have the opportunity of

The theme for thia year will be "Gypsy Night at the
P-ps" with Toni Koves Steiner aa soloist. Ma. Steiner will
perform on the cimbalom, a stringed, percussion inst­
rument a*»&lt;iaied with the music of Hungarian gypsies.
fir»i in the Hary Jan.-* Suite by Zoltan Kodaly and then in
a selection of authentic gypsy melodies. Her appearance in
Battle Creek will provide a unique opportunity for area
ciiixens. aa Ma. Steiner is the only cimbalom artist in the
United Stales who it capable of performing with a
aytnph. ny orchestra, and in the paat the has rvstnrted her
appearances to such major organixalions aa the Phil
adelphla and Boston Symphony Orchestras.
Other setacCuoa on the program will include the suite
fr-m Ge- rgea Bizet's popular opera. Carmen, the overture
to J.-haM Btrauu'a The Cytspsy Barca, and selections by
Kalman, Urn and Brahms. There will also be some
surprise select ions fmm contemporary popular music that
will tie into the "gypsy" theme.
The second concert, on Oct. 28. will be one that the
audience itself selected in balloting that took pla« this
eea*&lt;n. The program will include Dvorak's evar popular
and tuneful "New World" Symphony and Rimsky-Kor
aak-v'a "Scheherazade”, that evocative and melodious
work which is based oc the familiar Tales of 1001 Nights
with its visions of the mysterious Middle East. The Dvorak
work was inspired by the composer's stay in me United
Stales during the 19th century.
.
On Dec. 9 an all-orchestral concert will feature the
stirring musk of Beethoven's Symphony No. 7. On the
same program the orchestra will perform the Overturn lo
Richard Wagner's early masterpiece, Tannhauaer, and
M-isart'e Symphony No. 41. “the Jupiter."
On January 28. 1979. one of America's most gtfled
y utg female pianists wfl] be joining the orchestra in a
peri- rmance of Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 1. Ursula
Oppens, who was selected Musican of the Month by
Musical America and was the 1976 winner of the
prestigious Avery Fischer competition, has been called an
“empreee of the keyboard" and "virtually a
genius"
wlvee "technique is beyond compare."
The second work on thia concert will be Anton
Bruckner's massive and stirring Symphony No. 4. 'Dus
wi&lt;k. a pnduct of high German romanticism, will give the
audience aa opportunity to hear extensive playing by the
imporved and jually lauded horn section of the orchestra.
The fifth concert of the year will lake place on March
11 and will feature our own concert master, Boris Brant.
The program will feature an afternoon of Russian
masierw.eks. with Mr. Brant performing the sprightly
Violin Concerto by Dmitri Kabalevsky, a work which he
performed under lhe composer's baton before he fled the
Soviet Union for the United States and Battle Creek. The
reel of the prgram will include Glinka's "Kamannskaya"
and Tchaikovsky's beloved and familiar Symphony No. 5.
The season finale will bring lhe Oakland (California)
Ballet to Battle Creek in a full length, fully-staged
perf rmance &lt;&gt;f Le- Delibes's classk work. Coppriia Thia
fairy tale about a mechanical &lt;$&gt;!). based on a story by
E.T.A. H. ffman. should be something for the whole family
to see and enj»y.
The Oakland company has been described as a young
gr -up with a "dynamic altitude" and w.th "finely trained
and eadting dancers" who utilize "choreographers of
national and international fame " They are also one of the
few ballet companies in the United States capable of
touring with a full length work. Their performances across
lhe nation have been greeted with critical arclaim, but only
f-« the technical level ol their dancing and their
"surpassing standard of ensemble finesse, "but also for
their colorful pnduetlons.
Tlie staging of thia performance was done by Jo
Savinn. 5-rmer star of lhe Ballet Rutse, and will represent
lhe first time area residents have bwn able to see a full
length ballet accompanied by the Battle Creek Symphony.

To the Editor:
If thr two hills Hing
considered hy the Labor
Committee of the Michigan
House of Representatives
right now should pass, they
will invite total disruption of
public services in Michigan
and destroy all meaningful
local control over school
policy. They are dangerous
bills.
House Bill 5734 would for
the Brit time, legalize
strikes hy public employees
in Michigan. This would
include police and firefight
er*.
The other piece of legisla
lion. House Bill 5274 sets up
a mechanism for regional
education bargaining. This
means that when strikes
occurred they would shut
down school systems in wide
areas of thr state at the
same lime. It would also
make it much easier for the
state's teacher union bosses
to control and manipulate
strikes.

by

Buzz
Young*-

We carried (he report of how our own Tom Duit,
became the first native Michigander to crack the four minute
mile as a collegian, but we received a more detailed report
from Western Michigan's Sport* Information Director John
Heatty and because Duit,' achievement goes down in
Michigan * history, well indude all lhe detail*.

' At the time I came to
college. I never dreamed it
would be so hard to take
nine second, off my mile
time and break
four
minute*, but it* easy now
that I've finally been able io
do it." commented Western
Michigan *emor Dull* after
he turned in a 3:593 mile.
Duit,. who wa* a 4:09
miler at Hasting, High,
turned in tht, clocking last
Saturday in taking third
place again*! nine of thr
world's premier runner, a*
part of the prestigious "Ben
Franklin Mile" at the Penn
Relay* in Philadelphia.
Duit* wa* thr lone native
American collegian in the
field and beat such runner,
a* James Munyala of Kenya
and Texas El Paso, the 1978
NCAA Indoor ehampion in
this event, and Olympian
and former Villanova star
Marty Liquor! The top sin
runners rrosurd thr line in
4:00 and under a* Canadian
Dave Hill from lhe Florida
Track Club won in 3:58.6.
while Kenya's Wilson Waig
wa wa, secund with lhe
same clocking.
Duits' previous lop mile
clocking was 4:01.3 in 1977
and utilized a J:W split as
part of a four mile relay at
the recent IKigwood Relay,
to gain entry into the "Ben
Franklin."
"Even after the relay
split. I was still skeptical
about
breaking
four
minutes." commented Duit*.
"Running a four minute
mile involve* perfect pae
ing." added (&gt;*oh Jack
Shaw. "What helped Tom in
hi* 3:56 effort wa, lhe fart
that hr was rhavng a Villa
nova runner in thr race and
didn't have Io worry about
healing and outlasting eight
other people."
The "Ben Franklin didn t
represent a perfect race for
anyone to break four
minute* after pre meet pre
diction^ that it would take a
sub 3:55 to win.
The field went by the Grrt
lap in 61 second* and the
half mile in 2:05. "I didn't
want Tom on the lead until
al least the half so that the
other, could use him." com
mrnted Shaw "What hap
penrd wa* that nobody el»e
wanted to be used either."
With 350 yard* to go.
Duit* found himself in sixth
place after bring "boxed" on
the third lap. Even though
he ended up passing laquon.
Dave Frederick* and Mun
yala. he still didn't thuk hr
had broken four minutes. “I
figured around 4:01 or 4:02
and didn't find out about the

4 00 until a teammate told
me while I wa* running
outside thr Stadium to cool
down."
In divusving hi* stretch
running. Duit, *aid "it was
relatively ea*y to pa*, once I
got out of trouble, but then
again I have only myself tu
blame for being in trouble on
thr third quarter "
.
He admitted particular
"surprise" in beating Mun
yala. who won an impressive
rare al the 1978 Indoor
national, a, [lulls finished
fifth. Hr also had placed fifth
at thr 1977 Outdoor NCAA*
in lhe I JO) meter, or metric
mile. rare. Waigwa. running
for UTEP that day. wa, the
winner.
Duit* added that plenty of
speed work lately wa, re
v|»&gt;.'.Mblr for thr clocking in
Philadelphia. In addition to a
ten milr jaunt in thr mor
nmg and regular afternoon
practice with the other dis
t-ince runners, he run* a
mile with a wrie, of 110
yard pickup*. Thi* is accom
plished by sprinting that
distance, jogging the curve
and then repealing the pro
rod uro.
Shaw feel, that Duit* is
just beginning to reach hi*
potential and might he an
even better steeplechaser.
"I think he could go out and
run an 8:30 right now even
though he hasn't run the
race rompetitvely." Mun
yala's winning NCAA time
last spring was 8:29 4.
Duit*. who ran in the 1976
Olympic Trial,. I* definitely
planning on running after
college with an ryr toward
making the I9M) United
State* team
"His performance at the
Hen Franklin will get him
into plenty of big meet, next
year which will be even
better from an experience
standpoint.’ said Shaw
"When the !9f0 Trials come
around. Tom'* steeplechase
&lt;*&lt;&gt;&lt;k will just Iw another
hedge in getting a trip to
Moscow ."

Educational materials not
owned by the three local
care facilities have been
purchased for the program
by the grant.
Mrs. Mariam Sorby. Hast­
ings school nurse, pointed
out that hiring an employee
ran be very costly to care
facilities, especially if the
new employee leaves shortly

gram Is designed to help
meet the demand for nur
sing attendants and to cut
each facility's cost of orients
lion.

by VICTOR KIHSON'
The Blue Herons are back!
Many of our readers will
rememlier that last year we
recorded a little atory of tb*
Blue llerona that were crea­
ting quite a bit of eintemenl
over on Jaekson Road just to
the weal of the intersection
of that road and Musgrove
Highway.
Many of you drove over
there and across a Geld from
the end of the highway a
large number of huge nests
were dearly visible in tops
of some of the tree* in lhe
woods. Some of you were
fortunalr enough to be there
at the right lune of lhe day
to see some of the big birds
in flight, leaving or return
ing to their nests. It was
very interesting.
We are informed today
that the herons are bark and
over the weekend quite a
number of visitors paikrd
along the roadside there to
watch. Some were rewarded
with a view of lhe birds but
to all it was worth the trip
just to see all lhe nests.
These nesting places are
railed "heronries.' and con
sist of kw crude masses of
sticks hudt in tree tops or in
bushes The herons usually
nest and roost in Borka, but
they hunt food alone, and
last year several of them
were seen hunting food al
different limes of the day
around the dam al lhe south
end of Jordan ladle. In
search of food tbe heron
stalks with stalely stride
along the shores of lake or
stream, silent and alone. The
bird may stand for a long
time with ita head drawn
between Ils shoulders. It
appears to he asleep but it is
patiently waiting for Tish,
frogs or small reptiles.
When it sees its prey, the
heron makes a lightning dart
and catches the victim in its
spearlike bill. The blue
heron lives in the summer
throughout the United
Stairs and Canada, but
where were they last winter
when we were buried in
snow? I don't know. Now is a
good lime to view the nest
ing grounds nf these in
teresling birds before tbe
leaves come out on lhe trees
and hide them from view.
We advise you to take along
your field glasses if you have
them.
Following a custom lhe
family has ot going to lhetr
woods tor a pwnic early in
May each year. Mr. and Mrs.
Willis Dalton and Gary pack

Winter’s Firewood Now
by LINDA TATEM
More and more people in
Barry County arc turning to
firewood Io supplement
their hom« heating and ron
erm for nest winter * supply
of firrwmid should start
right now.
Many experienced home
owners are ..Iready gather
ing their furlwood for next
winter's supplv. Here are a
few tip* to help in lhe
•clcitioii and use of fire
wood.
Good selection of wood for
burning ran improve lhe
quality and growth rate of
the remaining tree*. If pro
periy managed, a woodiot ol
15 20 arm will supply the
furlwood nerd* for Ihr aver
age household indefinitely
Proper selection of trees cut
for firewood will also guar
antec valuable limber in the
year* to come.
Tree* which are crooked,
partly rotted, or damaged
make good choices for home
fuelwood. Trees with forked
top* or those sprouted from
old slump* should also be
sch-cird f«.r removal
Thr more valuable tree
specie* should hr f reserved
for future log production. In
Harry County. *ugar maple,
northern red uak. white oak.
black walnut, basswnod.
white ash. black eherry.
tulip poplar, and white pine
are favored as timber tree*.
Scrub trees growing loo
near these morr valuable
species ran stunt their
growth and should be thin
ned out for um as fir*
wood. Beech is a good ex
ample. It has a high den
sity. meaning morr available
hrat per volume when bum
rd. but it i* not in verv high
demand for other wood pro
duct*.
Information about tree
species identification can be
obtained from a booklet en
titled "Familiar Trees of
Michigan." i Extension Bulle
tin tildl. available through
the Cooperative Extenswa
Service. 301 8. Michigan
Avenue. Hasting* Il i* a
govs! Kira to mark tree*
selected for removal when
arrangement* have been
made for some one else to
cut trees on your woodiot.
To derive a* much heal as
possible from each pound of
wood, it should be air dried
for at least six month*. The
drier the firewood, lhe hot
ter lhe fire and lhe les*

chance of a build up of
creosote in thr chimney.
When wood is not fully com
busied, creosote i« deposited
on chimney walls and can
cause chimney fire*
The wood should be rare
fully stored to insure proper
drying. If the wood is stored
outside, it should be placrii
on stick* or board* to raise it
off the ground and prevent
decay. Wood will dry fast
er it It IS split prior to
stacking. Good circulation
around thr wood and ex
p&lt;Mure to sunlight aid* dry
ing and a plastic sheet can be
placed over the top layer of
*&gt;&lt;od to help shed rain and
snow. A she&lt;l or simple
•heller will also keep out
prectprtatKXi and speed the
drying process.
Remember firewood
should be gathered and
stored now (or next winter.

New 3-Year Teachers’ Pact
Has 6 Percent Overall Hike
“■

A three year contract pro­
viding for salary and fringe
benefit increases averaging
5.1 percent per year, a
longer school year of 185
day a and other provisions is
to be considered al a special
meeting of the Hastings
Area Board of Education lo
hr held Wednesday. May 31.
at 7:30 p.m, in the Junior
High study hall. The lota!
increase b about six per
rent
In an election Last week
thr teachers in the Hastings
Education Association ap­
proved the new pact.
The contract, in addition
tn the salary “package,”
includes a philosophical com
mitmenl to reduce some
class sires while maintaining
thr staff level. Superinten
dent of Schools Richard J.
Guenther said.
The pact includes senior­
ity provisions to cover fu­
ture staff reductions, pro­
visions for transfers and
hiking thr school year from
IM) to 185 days.
The longer school year
will cover snow and regular
inservice workshops. The
new “snow’ policy will not
require teachers to report
thr first day lhe students
are absent.
The basic salary schedule
includes a range for instruc­
tors with B.S. de grot a from
SI 1.721 to 117^27 and those
with master's from 111.721
ti&gt; 119..’104. It will take 11
years to reach the maximum,
salary on lhe bachelor's
schedule, and nine years to
reach the master's “lop."
Included in lhe package is
a change in health and
hospitalization from Super
Med to Super Med 1.130.000
term life insurance and a flat
*16.000 per year towards a
dental insurance program,
thr difference in cost to be
paid by the teacher.
The second and third year
of lhe contract will have a
cost of living factor, based
on All Cities Index, added to
lhe individuals schedule on
an annual basis.
Super Med I is reported lo
be a much better medical
insurance policy, paying 100
percent of general medical
coats, although there is a $2
deductible on drugs instead
of $1. Super Med paid 100
percent of the first 15,000,
and 90 percent up to
SI00.000. Super Med I pays
100 percent up to SI million
or with some exceptions and
limitations.
The pact includes longe­
vity provisions for those
wit'h 15 years teaching, the
last five consecutive years in
Hastings, and 20 years, the
last 10 consecutive years in
Hastings. The longevity
adds 1.6 percent to the
financial package. Supt.
Guenther said.
Substitute leaching pay
remains at S-10 a day the
first year of lhe contract,
but is subject to an annual
cost of living consideration
the remaining two years.
Sick leave is allowed lo
accumulate 10 additional
days for each year of lhe
contract, lo a maximum of
150 days.
The agreement also pro
vides a seniority system to
cover lay-offs if necessary.
Teachers will have "bump
ing" privileges.
The contract includes
school social workers,
speech therapists and adult
education instructors.
Supt. Guenther explained
that two teaching positions
were retained to reduce lhe
pupil teacher ratios. "Al­
though the contract calls for
a 25 to one pupil teacher
ratio in academic programs,
we have philosophically
agreed that reduced pupil
teacher ratios should be eon
sidcred when money la
available for first and
secund grades to 20 to one.

EDITORIAL

Decision May Be Good Law,
But Doesn’t Solve the Problem
So the ill fated Housing CommiMion takes
&lt;i now twist.
It rs more than Ironic that lhe very people
wfio wore most anxious to get lhe Housing
Commission ordinance on lhe ballot a few
months ago are the very ones who have
prevented a referendum on it.
Yes. it seems that Ethel Bore is less than
o-ovsterit &lt;1 demanding a pubic vote a few
months ago lunsuccescfuBy), then paying
her own attorney to delve mto the laws and
tmd vn4a' ihm she no longer wants lhe
public to vote on it.
What is obvious is that the referendum is
not a matter of principle with Mrs. Bore. Her
principle rs simply to stop lhe formation of a
Housing Commission by any legal means
And site has.
Nevertheless, she has unwillingly done the
county a favor. Not by slopping the Housing
Commission, but by awakenog lhe commawiners .md lhe prosecutor lo the legal
requirements of county ordinances
II Mrs Bore had not acted so promptly
and thoroughly, the county could have gone
through the effort and expense of the
referendum, the Housing Commission could
well have started operating, and long
afterward, discovered it was illegally formed
Months and years of work and much
eipen.e might have gone down the drain
No doubt the commissioners are gong to
he much more careful m how they pass
nrdmances m the future
Some county officials just shake thaw
heads, noting dial other counties have sei up
Housing Commissions as Barry started to.
and Iwtvo run into no legal hassles. That
doesn't make n right, though. You can fault
the state for making it so difficult for
counties to pass ordinances, perhaps. But

you can t lauit a citizen for making lhe
county follow state laws, no matter what
the motives.
We may never know whether a majority of
the county's voters want a housing comma
sion and puhhety sponsored senior citizens'
housing Such a pod perhaps could be
obtamed with an advoory vote, but that
would have no legal standing
Whai we do know is that under state taw.
one thed of the commissioners can prevent
the passage ol a county ordinance. They
have every right to do this. We also have
found out that only the citizens, not the
commissioners, have the legal right to put
such an issue on the ballot.
"Die pity is. of course, that such obstruc
iionist tactics may prevent needy senior
citizens of Barry County from obtaining
adequate housing. Mrs. Boze and some of
her supporters argue that private enterprise
should have the chance. They’ve had the
chance for years, but it hasn't gotten done
We have no argument with the idea of
insuring that our public bodies work in
accordance with the taw. However, unlike
Mrs Boze, wo detect no intent to circumvent
the law Perhaps the homework was not
done adequately, but we don't think the
majority of the county commissioners were
trying to ignore State limitations
But it bothers us that those who oppose
the Housmg Commission have put forth no
positive arternatrvos h's easy to be "against"
things In competitive debate, the negative
clearly has the advantage.
Moanwhite, though, the problem is no
closer to solution. If a group agrees there is a
need, but opposes the proposed solution,
don't they have a moral obligation to suggest
a practical and acceptable alternative?

Te the Editor:
The proposal by our
county road Commissioner
Richard Rom- and Engineer
manager Jack Klneman urg­
ing support for a special two
mill Property Tax for road
building and repair be put on
the ballot fnr approval by
the electors should alert
esery property owner to the
fact that the burden of
financing our public road
system could be shifted on
their bill, whieh is already
very burdensome.
Some years ago it took ■
long bloody and costly battle
to remove this burden from
thr real rstatr property and
assess it to lhe people that
um- the roads and cause
their decline.
If there is a need for
increased revenue in this
area it should come tn the
form of an increase in lhe
gasoline tax and not on the
property owner who in
many cases docs not have
time lo make use of ths
roads anyway.
It is time for our elected
commissioners and those
that aspire lo this office to
come forth with a definite
statement as to their Po­
tion on this important issue.
The enactment of such a
tax would definitely be a
return to the conditions
created by lhe administra
tion of President Herbert
Hoover.
If these statement* date
me. let it be so. For I was
there and helped to dispose
of that regime.

The meeting, chaired by
Rill Fuller. Argosy earcu

sentatives from such agen

Anonymous. CETA and
Adult Ba»ic Education.
The group went down a
list of possible subject areas
which Fuller said was adapt

but decided that some of the
arras do not represent signi

Several agreed that over

that deserved high priority

Dr. Old/ said that young

about the potential harm.
Fred laiwe. director of

U.we said that the schools

schools must work with

Starting as a teacher I had
to settle this question What
is school for? I* it to gain
knowledge and skills ' Is a
tool of any value until one
knows how to use it? Do the
students of today have time
and ability to ilo construe
live thinking? Should teach
er* have priorities?
When I look lhe subject.
" Principle* of Teaching" al
Western Michigan. one of
thr student*, bolder than !.
asked the professor to use
some of those principles on
nur cl*., an ffesf we might
lenrn how to operate them.
Thr professor answered,
you are old enough, so that it
is nrt necessary. I guess she
couldn't do it. 1 nearly
mrmoriaed two text books
and did 2.000 pages of read
ing in educational journal*,
little of which wa* practical
for me to use a* a teacher.
Anyway. I finished my edu
rational requirement* and
gut out into the field where
thr action was.
I *non learned that each
student was a different tn
dividual. I had 53 of them,
grades one Io eight, (or two
years, and that wa* a job. It
waa h a.m. steady, till
around about 5 p.m.. plus
thr time after supper until
bed time. In spile of thr hard
work, I enjoyed much rr
ward.
There was Ruth, and I
have thought many a time
that I should rather have
paid her for being my pupil,
than to takr pay for being
hrr teacher. The last day of
school, before she started to
school the next year, a* I
wa* giving out thr report
card*, we heard some one
whistling out in the entry.
Then in came a little black
haired girl with a sparkle in
h«-r eye*. She presented me
with a cherry pie. Wasn't
that something? It waa het
ter than an apple, and really
» good way to become ae
qualnlrd.
Il is my belief that if we
takr care of lhe little thing*
usually thr big things will
take rare of themselves
That truth occasionally wdl
lead u* to ignore certain
happenings that are well to
tw forgotten. There waa a 15
• rar old eighth grade girl
who walked Ij school with a
group of neighbor children.
They would meet truck*
hauling gravel. One driver
would slew dear, and .buut
obnoxiou* remarks to this
girl Bring tired of thi*. the
young lady robbed somr
•parrow nests of eggs, and
ihr nrxt morning whrn this
driver slowed down. *he
•trppni close to the truck
cab and let him have a whole
handful of thr egg* full in
Ihr fare. Thi* ended this
problem
One of the other children
fell it was too good to keep
and told mr. but thi* young
lady never learned lhat I
ever knew a thing about it.

lute is important and *..!

enjoy sharing with others.
S«&gt;me time ago I discovered
a really neat way of sharing
not only my life with m&gt;omone but 1 w as able to share
with others.
A few years ago i applied
to the Big Brothers of Hast
mg* and a* all «ood thing*
turned out I became a Big
Brother. IJttle did I know
what an impart that would
have on my life or rather, hi*
life.
We did Ihe usual thing*
that seem to always pop into
mind when you think of Big
Brother*. Fun things like
roller skating, camping or
ju*t simply spending the
night at my house Vnu ju«t
cannot imagine the bond
that ran grow out of things
like that.
I rannot promise that you
will have instant giaxf feel
mg because that's not true.
Though I can promise that
&gt;ou would get back more
than you put in to it.
Big Brothers offer the op­
portunity (or you to lie a
frw-nd to someone w ho needs
understanding and someone
they ran turn to when the
chip* an- down. It takes
gor«t people to make the
program work and it is
working mi at least there arc
a few people to like to gel
involved and do something
worth their while.
Through
my
Little
Brother I have come to
understand myself and what
life has to offer
When it cotnr* time for
me In dir. I will die happy
that somewhere in th:*
world I was a small part of
somebody* hie. When it
romr» time for you to dir. I
fu^H- you low will be happy
for what youvr dune. Don't
hr afraid to gel involved
with Big Brother* It's a

great tieling and besides,

To the Editor:
In the Monday. May 37.

grsted that Ihe Granta Co

Dr. Kingsley Bennett in his
effort to put up Senior
Citizen Housing. Some
month* ago a piece of pro­
perty owned by Dr. Bennett
wa* under consideration as a
site for senior citizen hous
mg to be built by the Public
Housing Commission. I di*
. usx-d thi* with Dr. BcnoHl
and with a representative
from the real e*tatc firm
handing the property. Wr
were tno*t anxmo* to co
operate wit h him in terms of
considering the property at
that time
When, due to Mrs. Hoze s
successful law suit, the
Housing Commission wa*
discontinued further negoti
at ions concerning the pro
perty as a site for senior
citizen housing became use
Th:* office has. and wfll.
cooperate in anyway possi
hie with anyone who is able
tn bring low co*;, subsidized
senior citizen housing into
the county. Al present we
are simply not eligible for
public housing monies; no

yet rome forward to submit
an application; and there is
little we ran do far private

them with basic research.
We have already done
that in a number of case*.

Some of our readers will
ZION LI IHf.HAN ( lit HI H. remember the article we
wrote a few years ago about
the little Mouch Cemetery
located on the north side of
Brown Hoad just west of
Woodland Road corner. The
little burying ground was
named for the German
family who owned and occu
pied the house on the corner
where Mr. and Mrs. Earl
Engle now live. Thr plot of
ground was set aside for the
burial place tor the Mouch

family, the husband and two
daughters preereding the
mether in death. Thr follow­
ing story came to us the past
week. The German family
• ere very dc.oted and
shortly helorr her death, the
wife and mother visited the
bank in Woodland and de
posited 1100 lone hundred
dollars) in a special saving
fund, stipulating that the
interest «li%&gt; was to be
added Io the principal and
that from this fund some
member of the Niethamer
family were to visit the little
cemetery once a year and
see that I hr place was kept
up and thr necessary re
pairs made. In case, the
named family failed for some
reason, or all were deceased,
some member of the Jordan
family was to lake over. This
request w as carried out for a
number of years, when by
some means, this was chan
grd and thr duties and the
pay were transferred to
another party. This plan
worked for one year, then
the little cemetery was
neglected, weeds and brush
took over, the stones be
caret muss encrusted, the
graves were sunken and the
fence was down and covered
with vim s. Now. back to our
anginal story: someone had
taken an interest in the
rundown little cemetery
and had spent many long
hours of hart! work and
slowly and lovingly had re­
stored it to the plan- where
Mrs. Mourh. if she could
come back long enough to
inspect it. could return to
her resting place, contented
and happy. Now, you re­
member. the stipulation was
"if—a member of the Jordan
family was to lake over."
Earl Engle is not exactly a
member of the Jordan
family, but he married eoe.
and bow much closer ran one
come?

Those men did not make arguments for the
claims of Christ from eillter science or philosophy
Tliey did not seek to convince men by their subjective
feekngs They were eyewitnesses of the Son of God
visibly ardramatically in action Against fierce and
dedicated opposition they went about toiling the good
nows, and they had nothing to gain by H from a
worldly standpoint. Our faith rests upon very reliable
testanony and we can be assured of its cenamtyl

Mr. and Mr*. LeRoy
Flessner left home early
Friday, one driving thr car
and the other, thr van for a
busy and rnjoyablr weekend
in Marion. Ind. Their pro
gram was a full one and
started with the baeralaur
eate service at 4 o'clock, held
in thr College Wesleyan
Church. Thi* was followed
by lhe dedication and laying
of the corner stone for the
new Manon College Field
House at 5:30. The buffet
dinner at the College waa at
6 o'clock and thr Nurses
Pinning Service was at 9
o'clock in the College
Chapel. The big event of the
year for Mary Lynn and the
other seniors of the college
were the graduation exrr
rises Saturday at KI a.m.
held at the Manon High
School. Then there were
parties for the parents held
by various groups and in
various places. This was a
chance for students and
parents Io renew acquaint
anrvs made through the
years and they were greatly
enjoyed. The afternoon waa
■pent sight seeing in around
Marion. One place of special
interest they visited was
beautiful. Taylor University
at Upland. En route back to
Marion from Upland they
were caught in such a severe
rain storm as wa eiperien
red here al about the same
lime, making driving diffi
eult and haurdou*. Sunday
morning lhe Michiganders
attended church services at
one of Marion's many nice
churches. The Flessner's
daughter. Susan, had com*
up to Marion from Asbury
College. Wilmore. Ky.. to
witness her sister's grad us
lion. etc. and she drove the
ear back to Wilmore Sun­
day. Mr. and Mr*. Messner
and Mary Lynn returned
here Sunday and on Monday
morning Mr*. Flessner and
daughter drove to Aon Ar­
bor where they eslabli»hed
Mary Lynn in the apartment
which will be her home for
the month* ahead. She be
gin* her duties with the
Cardiac Unit on June 12.
Mary Lynn made the state
ment that this was a big
year for her parent* they
would *ee their oldest child
graduate from college and
their youngest get his driv
er's iH-rnse How true!
Mr. and Mr*. Earl Engle,
Jr.. Woodland'* genial post
master and hi* wife, moved
back into their former home
on lhe corner of Woodland
and liniwn Road*, from
which they moved when
they purchased the former
George Porritt farm about a
half mile south a few year*
ago They did quite a bit of
remodeling and modernising
of their new home, making it
one of the most attractive
country home* in that part
of Woodland Township. One
of their *un* and hi* family
lived foe some lime in thr
house they vacated until
they moved into Ukr Ode*

■a. Since that time the old
home has been v scant and
thr Engles have been put
ling a lot of lime, money,
and love into remodeling it
until it has really become
"thr talk of the town." We
use ths- terms "old borne."
"lot s of Im r" and "talk of the
town." advisedly. We have
heard many people remark
alwiul thr change that ha*
been made in lhe looks of lhe
hou»c and there is very good
reason tn speak of love when
we esplain the “old." The
house on the corner was
originally the home of the
George Mauch family who
came here from Germany
with a group of immigrants
who came to Michigan and
for whom the little cemetery
just west of the corner was
named. Mrs. Engle iSlella)
inherited the farm from her
father. Frank Jordan whose
father. Willard Jordan had
in turn gotten it from hi*
father. William Jordan who
had purchased it from the
Mauch family. Il has been in
the Jordan family foe nearly
a 100 years. Willard Jordan
was lhe father of Mr*. Ruth
Nirthsmer and Theodore
Jordan. Mrs. Niethamer, ac
rompamed by Mr*. Alice
Morrow of I^kr Odessa,
lister of Mr*. Engle, and
Mrs. Hertha Flory, visited
Mr. 4nd Mra. Engle in their
"new" home Sunday after
mon and informed us that
the inside is just a* altrac
live and homey a* the out
side and that Mrs. Engle ha*
furnished it almost entirely
with antique furniture which
i* right in keeping with the
house itself, many of the
piece* having a lot of senli
mental value and “if they
multi talk" could tell a kit of
lhe Jordan family history,
i Incidentally. Rnnald France
of Woodland should lake a
nice bow for the beautiful
work done on the Engle
home. I Thr Engle'* ton. Jeff,
ha* purchased from hi*

just vacated and will move

Development
The tram of IS graduate
student* who have been
studying various aspects of
community development in
Barry County gave their
preliminary reports Thur*
day. to an audience of local
officials and community­
leader*.
The reports were divided
into five different general
areas development perspre
lives, employment and in
dust rial development. Barry
County agencies, develop
mental considerations and
policy considerations.
The presentation »«
chaired by Dr. William J.
Kimball, who teaches the
course in Resource Develop
ment and is also a rommu
nily development specialist
Here are highlights of
some of the repons:
"A Study of Citizen Par
ticipalion in the Barry Coun
ty Overall Economic De
velopmenl Program." John
Peck: Peck found that there
was a lol of citizen input in
the county development
plan, but it took an inor
dinalely long lime for ap
proval by the federal
government. By the time
approval came, he conclud­
ed. much of the initial in­
terest wa* lost.
The Impact of Migration
in Barry County." Chri*
Doozan: Doozan studied the
attitudes of old and new
resident* in Prairieville
Township, which has had a
high number of new rest
dent* He found that new
resident* are concerned
about police protection, lack
of good shopping facilities,
shortage of rental housing
and preservation of the
scenic rural environment.
He said new resident* did
not seem to be worried
about the lack of job op
portunilies. because most of
them have job* uuisUc ilw
county.
"Commuters: Potential
Labor for New Industry."
Hyde Chesney: Chesney al
so found that many new
resident* commute tn near
hy cities, and therefore are

not looking for jobs in Barry
County. Even longtime rest
dents, he found, would not
be very interested in giving
up present jobs to work in
Barry County, because they
would be giving up such
advantage* as seniority. He
concluded that commuters
are not a very large source
of possible new employees
for new local industry
'The Status of thr Indus
trial Development Process."
James McConnell: Mcf'on
nell found there Is "little
involvement" among husi
nessmen and industrial lead
er* in developing new in
dustry. He said that ap
parently both political anil
business leader* are not
very strongly in favor of it
"Industry in Hastings. I*
Il DestredT Mary MeCaf
froy: Ms. McCaffrey found
that industrial and rommu
nity leaders want new in
dustry. provided it i* light
industry of 200 to 300 yob*,
clean, and will complement
existing Industry. She found
that citizen* in general were
"not concerned" about indu*
trial development. Such de
velopment ran come, she
concluded, only if it doe* not
threaten existing industry.
"Vocational Education and
Employment
Training."
Debra
Schneider:
Ms
Schneider reported that less
than half the county * work
force work* in the rounly.
and that unemployment i*
high among young people
She «aid there are "very
limited facilities and limited
money" for vocational train

began operation of the
Youth Apprenticeship I*ro
gram lYAPt during August,
a $'.’2.50t) federally funded
i-mplovment program fur
youth, subcontracted
through the Calhoun Com­
munity Action Agency. A* a
result six young peopir were
implovrd within thr busi
nrss community and four
teen young people were
hired through the Winteriza
lion Program. The effort* of
the winterization crew re
suited in nineteen home*
being iii*ulaied against the
winter month*.
In reviewing the 5M cases
of 1977. we find an overall
reduction id 6% from 1976.
Official delinquency case* in
1977 dropped by 11%; un
official cases, represented
I H&gt; delinquency matter* and
two neglect matter*, dr
creased by 43%; traffic
cases increased by 28%.
and. neglect abuse case* in
crraseil by 271%.
Placements out of the
home, costing 187.390.70,
were reduced by 24% over
1976. Thr HI ptacrmcnl*
represented a 67% increase
in foster care from 1976. a
fftP’n ik-ervasr in secure dr
tenlion. a 22% decrease in
residential care facilities,
and a 25% decrease to state

11401.268
institution*. Cost* far such
placement* continued to in
crease. However, of the 81
children removed from their
home 23 placements were
paid through ADC F funding
at little or no cost lo the
County.
There appear a number of
reasons for the reuurtion in
number*. Reductions in the
area of detention and inst itu
lional placement can be
credited to the In Home De­
tention Program and the
Home Intensive Care Pro
gram, respectively. There
were twenty children placed
in the In Home Drtention
l*rogram for 482 day*, and
eight out of thirteen child­
ren successfully completed
the Home Intensive Care
Program. Foster care ha*
Iwn utilized more frequent
ly. warranting advanced
training through the Fast
ern Michigan University
Foster Parent Training Pro­
gram. Thr probation pro
gram continue* to keep the
recidiviirion rale low. al only
5.6%. demonstrating some
success.
The large increase in
neglect/abuse case* has
been brought about by
greater public visibility,
mandaiory reporting and
additional personnel in the

ASSOCIATION

Savers at Hastings Savings &amp; Loan will be able to earn a compounded
interest rate of 8.24 per cent on long term deposits, starting June 5,
Association President Richard Beduhn announced today.
To earn the full rate, savings must be left on deposit for terms of eight,
nine or ten years, and interest left to accumulate.
The new certificates are being sold in denominations of $1,000 or
more. The certificates are federally insured up to $40,000.
Beduhn said the new savings account interest rate was authorized by
the Federal Home Loan Bank Boaid on May 11.
The eight to ten year certificates will carry an eight per cent stated
interest rate, but with quarterly compounding the effective annual yield is
8.24 per cent, if interest is left in tho account.
Monthly checks are available on accounts with minimum balance of
$10,000.00.
Until now, the highest compounded interest rate savers could earn
under federal regulations was 8.17 per cent on six-year certificates," said
Beduhn. "But with the new authority just granted, we will be able to help our
long term savers accumulate an even better return."
Beduhn added that the longer term certificates will also be helpful to
home buyers because they will enable the association to stretch the terms of
some savings capital, matching more closely the long terms of most
mortgage loans.
He said certificate holders may withdraw ee-.lings without penalty at
any time. Deposits can also be withdrawn before maturity, but subject to an
interest penalty required by federal regulations. The withdrawn deposits
would earn interest at 5% per cent, less 90 days interest.

The apostle John made a sad observation in his
book Speaking of Jesus he said. "He came unto his
own, and they that were his own lecerved him not"
(John 1:111. Jesus came on a good w*fl rnaaoc. but
men rejected lheir Maker)
The story is told of a widow whose children all
moved to the "new country" (aa she caled it). They
each had promised to save money and send for her
soon When she had not heard from them for a length
of lime, she assumed they lacked the means, so she
saved up her own money and paid them a surprise
vnn. But her reception was not what she had hoped
lot. Her children hod all married and had prospered.
Instead of warmly receiving her. they seemed annoyed
at lheir mother’s coming They criti ind her
old fashioned dress and speech, and had no room for
her The disappointed women returned to her country
and entered a home for the aged where she shed on
those around her the love that her own children had
rejected She allowed no bitterness to come into her
Me. but she mode lhe statement. "Il seems to mo that
I knew what our Lord suffered when ■ e came to hie
own dear people and they gave him the cold shoulder.
He came to his own and his own received him not. I
can understand how that wounded his loving heart."

HUGH’S MUSE

Voice of the People'

Which Year’s Corn Crop
Are We Working On?
By HUGH FULLERTON
Banner Publisher
Okay, what season it it? Fust we have
temperatures m the 80s. so we swelter for a
few days Then it's back down in the 50s and
60s. and out come the blankets ogam
Tlie crops seem a bit confused, too. We
have seen some fields of com that look
nearly a foot high Yet there's a few which
were never picked from 'Mt year, and it's
only about throe weeks since we saw a corn
picker at work.

Beautification and general fixup know no
season, though, and we're glad to :*e local
busoesamen making their pieces of business
more attractive
One of the ncesi Changes we've seen is
the new paint on the Tiki restaurant. That
tasteful shade of grayish green complements
the dark brown nicely, and makes the
building a bit cheerier on the outside. And
|ust down the street. Duane Jarman has put
a nice new mansard roof on hie OJ Bectnc
Buackng. which brings rt right up-to-date

The un beautification forces are always
with us. 1*0 the poor Just recently, they
managed to erect a large, ugly and sturdy
looking billboard at the comer of Cook Rd.
and W. State St.-the first thing you see as
you enter the city limits
This isn't one of your old billboard*,
constructed of 2x4 a and plywood, which
you hope might fan down in a few years. Thia
one is made of strong, heavy steel beams

which should be hero long after all of us are
gone
It seems ironic that city regulations would
not permit McDonald's to put up the large
arc* xrs usually found on Itieu restaurarils, but
would a»ow a large, unnecessary tailboard to
nar me entrance to Hatting*. Is there a
loophole in the law?

The biggest race you'll see this year isn't
going to be for governor, senator or even
school board
It s going to be the race between Michigan
politicians to see who can be the first on the»
tai hmnation bandwagon
With the overwhelming success of the
referendum in CaMomia. the passage of a
more reasonable plan in Michigan looks like a
good bet. So you're going to see all the
pokticos who wouldn't touch it a few weeks
ago racing to take credit for it here.
Where were they when a minority of us
voted for tax limitation two years ago? Some
might doubt their sincerity...
It's espeoatty interesting to hear Hep. Paul
Rosenbaum of Battle Creek, now running for
U.S Senate, say he'd feka to see tax
limitation on the federal level Did he ever
show any interest in it for Michigan?
The silty thing is. of course, that a
constitutional tax limitation shouldn't be
necessary. If the politicians were listening to
the people, who have been tefling them for a
decade that taxes are out-of-band, they
would have done a better iob of pobcing
government spending

Ta the Editor:
In April my 21-yearold
niece graduated from the
University of Michigan. She
now has a job in industry
with an annual salary of
$18,300 1 also graduated
from the U. of M- but in my
22 years of hard work and
dedication to nursing and
education. I have yet to earn
this magnificant sum.
This illustrates one of the
basic ills of our culture.
People who choose to work
serving other people usually
are paid much less than
people who choose lo work
with machines. The perfect
example is nurse aides We
want our nurse aides lo have
enough nursing knowledge
*o a* not lo he dangerous, do
physically exhausting work,
work most week ends and
odd shifts, be kind, considr
rate and dedicated. For all
this, we a* taxpayers offer
the minimum wage and part
time job*. It takes about two
year* of working lo reach
the poverty level of wage*.
When we first came to
Hasting*, my first job offer
was 11.89 an hour on the
3 11 shift. This was after 5V»
years of college and 5 yearn
of nursing experience.
Another job I had in Barry
County wa* for $20 a day.
This was the umr wage that
technicians with 2 weeks or
aix weeks of training re­
ceived.
Recently two people told
me they felt I was a true
renaissance woman. If I de
serve such praise, it is not
because of any innate drive,
hut rather one of necessity. I
learned early that I must
learn many other skills and
art. in order lo have what I
want or to simply do with
out.
Through all the lean
years, the one thing I never
expected wa* that anyone
would be upset about my
wages. Therefore your com
rnent* really gave me a
chuckle, which is all I need
lo keep going on most day*.
In .pile of everything. I
still ehooae lo work in a
helping profession rather
than to work with machines.
I «ay UP with the helping
professions! And I try to live
by the old Indian prayer:
"Grant that I may not criti
ria- my neighbor until 1 have
walked a mile in hi* mocra
*in».“
Sincerely,
Mariam I. Sorby. RN

Ta the Editor:
I have watched many
tram* over the yean. Some
had talent plus and some had
ju*t a little. I have watched
thr team, with a small
amount of talent excel lo

Hastings

height* no one ever expect
rd.
Thr reason for their sue
rc»* ha* been vomething
called tram work. There i*
nothing a* joyous to watch
as a group of kid* that give
110% and work together to
win A good tram forget,
their individual statistics
and sacrificr themselves fur
thr good of the team.
I strongly suggest if the
athlete cannot do this they
should go out for sports that
don't depend totally on team
work.
Sport* such as basketball,
baseball, toftball, volleyball,
football are total team
sport a.
Sport* such as wrestling,
golf, track are called team
sports but allow the athlete
to work one against one and
are not dependent upon
other* whether you win or
low your match.
I am glad to see the
popularity contest foe the
Mint Valuable Player on a
tram is being done away
with.
A Most Valuable llayer I*
a prraon who:
1. Help* their teammates.
2. Ifiit* the team first.
3. Always gives 100%.
And last but not least, is
the person on your team
that wiAild be the hardest
person to replace. On the
one person that your team
cannot do without.
It appears in the last year
Ihr athletes are making
their neleclions bawd on

and she had been very im
pressed with his concern and
said she felt "comfortable

working on the bus routes.
Sergeant Rnsema had ap

Mr*. Lenz said the

Miller explained that most

while Hastings has had only
about three accidents a year,
there wld be some 10

By V ICTOR SISSON
Perhaps a word of warn­
ing may be appreciated by
some of our readers, es
perially those who have
some evergreens you value
and want lo save. Recently
one of our readers noticed
something peculiar about
one of five small evergreens
just outside a south door al
her home. Upon closer
examination, she found the
lower part of the tree was
literally covered with worm,
each about an inch long. As
they watched. the worms
travelled down the branches
of lhe shrub, voraciously
devouring the little green
needles so fast you wouldn’t
believe it. Calling for help,
thr lady was told these
hungry creature* were army
worms. Thr other four trees
were also infested. It didn’t
take long to prepare a spray
and when it was applied the
worms were killed alnxAl
instantly. At the rate these
pests were working, it
would have taken only a few
hours tn completely destroy
these beautiful little trees. It
seems that thr army worms
do not attack all types of
evergreen trees hut if you
have any such trees we
suggest that you examine
them carefully, and often,
and at lhe first sign of surh
invasion spray the trees well
and br sure you get every
one of thr invaders. Only a
few hours delay may mean
thr death of your trees

Mrs. Viola Cunningham and
her corps.
The classes of 1928 and

dleville whose homes were

one accepted the invitation.
The Freeport Class of
1918. composed of eight
young ladies and one young

thest to the banquet was
Miss Maria Prieto of San

liago. Chili. Mis* Prieto

Supreme Court to Review
Overturning of Convictions
The Michigan Supreme
Court has agreed to review
the riverturning of the Kala­
mazoo Circuit Court murder
convictions of I wo men char
gvd in the 1971 slaying of an
Augusta bank teller.
The state's highest court
has granted a leave-toappeal petition by Kalama­
zoo County Prosecutor
James Gregart.
Prosecutor Gregart asked
the high court to review a
Michigan Appeals Court de
cision overturning the mur
tier conviction* of Donald I.
Gerlofs, 21. and Steven M.
Gray, 2-1. both formerly of
DrllOn.
The two are serving pn
son terms in connection with
lhe Augusta, 1974. slaying of
Connie M. Adams. 19. a sub

branch of the Industrial
Stale Hank.
Their convictions were

Guy iu. .crlos were prose­
cuted in federal and state
courts, they were placed in
double jeopardy and their
constitutional rights were
violated.
The case has been the
subject of a letter writing
campaign aimed at Supreme
Court justices. The cam­
paign. urging the high court
to grant Gregart'* motion
for a review, started in
February after the mother
of the murdered girl. Mrs.
Samual Adam*, wrote lo the
justice* asking for a hearing.
The Appeal* Court deci
*ion struck down the stale
court convictions, but left
convictions standing in fed
eral rout 1. Gay i» sen ing 99
years in a federal prison in
Iximpoc, Calif., and Gerlofs
received an indeterminate

10 year sentence. He is now
al the federal correction*
facility in Milan.
Gay pleaded guilty lo
murder and bank robbery
charge* in federal court.
Gerlof* wa* acquitted of
murder ami was sentenced
&lt;&gt;n robbery counts.
The Supreme Court order
fed that thr review be 'imited
to whether the doume jeo
pardy rule can be applied to
cares before the 1976 Marx
Cooper Supreme Court de
virion in which the double
jeopardy rule wa* first laid

down.
The court will also review
whether the slate and fed
eral prosecutions served dif
ferent interests.
In the Cooper case, the
high court ruled tlie prose
cutions in both state and
federal courts could be held
if the prosecutions served
different interests.

create a new annual event
for the Barry County Park.
"The response has been
tremendous." remarks
Frank Walsh, park director.
"The quality, attendance
and enthusiasm have sur
passed all of our expect*
lion*." Hasting* folks are
even talking of organizing a
three or four day festival
around the event next year.
People attending often
bring a blanket lo spread on
the gras* of the village
green, pack a pknk lunch
and relax in the summer
sunshine while they listen to
the musk. Many also bring
lawn chair* and others have
their swimsuits handy to
enjoy the beach.
A recreation area, adjoin
ing the historical village,
include* a beach and pknk
areas, a boat launch and a
nature trail.

The musk i* based on
traditional song* and pure,
simple harmonic*. Part of
Ihr appeal of blurgra** is its
mountain flavor. Until re­
cent time*, many of the
song* were never written
down. They were learned by
car and by heart.
The unique combination of
bluegrass instruments
usually a banjo and bass, a
mandolin, fiddle, guitar and
dobre. which resembles the
Hawaiian guitar give* the
music the ability to change
from a lonesome ballad tn a
fast moving, hard driving
song on the stomp of a fool.
Tkkets for the event are
$3.00 for adults. 50c for
children under 12 and free
for preschoolers. Charlton

careful tn apply the material
deep enough for adequate

Mulches may be of two
types: organic or inorganic.
Organic mukhrs (thoae com­

paper pulp, pine boughs or
needles, sawdust, poultry
litter, shredded hark and
murk. Manure should not be
used as a mulch since there
is great danger of "burning"
young plants with the exceaa
nitrogen it contains. When
mulching with sawdust,
corncobs, paper pulp, straw
or shredded bark, additioaal
applications of nitrogen fer

Inorganic m Iches imul

To the Editor:
In Barry County, as In
many other counties the
divorce rate is vary high,
and it is very unfortunate,
especially when there are
children involved. It is a
very traumatic experience
for all.
No child likes to see any
one parent move out of lhe
home, or have to choose
which parent he or she is to
live with. &lt; providing that
they are old enough to make
that decision) after all, they
do love both and that love
can not be measured.
But, who has the right to
make the decision? The right
to decide which parent is
better? The right placement
of the child/children should
be handled with the upmost
care, for the best interest of
the child. Just because lhe
mother may have given
birth to the child, does not
necessarily mean that she is
the better parent. But, for
some reason lhe courts seem
to always favor the mother.
WHY???
Could the answer be, that
the courts go along with the
Friend of the Court's recom­
mendation? No. For there
has been cases that the
Friend of the Court was in
favor of the father. But for
some reason the decision
was made by the judge in
favor of the mother. So. she
received custody.
Maj-1 aak? What gives the
judge the right to make that
very important decision?
Did he personally make a
thorough investigation of
that particular case? Does
he know lhe whole situa­
tion? In fact, does the Friend
of the Court really know?
Maybe they, (the whole ayslem) really just doesn't care,
and really does not look over
the whole background of the
parents —maybe they don't
really want to take lhe thne.
Because it really would lake
a great deal of lime. But
when there is a child in­
volved there should be alot
of time spent!!!
The man has just as many
feelings as does a woman,
although he may not always
show it on the outside, he
really can cry and he &lt;-«*
laugh, just like a woman, lie
can love just as deeply.
Il seems to me that a lol of
woman only seem lo think of
how much more child sup­
port money. Iwh&lt;eh i* lax
free to her) that they can get
out of their ex. or how many
"extras" they can slick them
with, by just simply saying
"its for our children." She
makes it as miserable for the
man as well as for the new
family that he may now
have, when he tries to start
a new life. Some women
seem lo use their child like
tools, just to get even, or for
their own selfish wants and
needs. They do not deserve
to have lhe child!!
A child is a person, whose
mind develops, and lhe way
they are raised helps deter­
mine what kind of individual
he or she may become. But.

too many times, if the child
is placed with the wrong
parent, and where there is
constant harrassment. just
because of the little extras
and free money. (Don't get
me wrong I am not against
child support, for the non­
custodial parent should pay
something toward their
child/children. but there
should be a limit.) Even­
tually lhe child becomes
confused and very emotion­
ally upset because of the
constant fighting between
the two parents, because she
does want more and more.
This little individual is a
"LIVING. BREATHING.
HUMAN BEING." and was
made out of love that waa
once there, but died.
Something has got to be
done to change some of the
system's ways!
Womens lib came about,
and the woman got her way.
now she has the same op­
portunities as a man.
But. what has gone wrong
with the rights of being a
father to his child!!!

To the Editor:
To those who dropped six
puppies on North Price
Road. June 12. 1978. People
in Africa today are killing
and being killed, people in
India are starving to death
even as I write.
In this county an elderly
couple recently was murder­
ed. So why get upset about a
half dozen puppies dropped
in the cold lo literally starve
to death?
Because they have knifing
hunger pains. Because they
don't know where the
familiar mother is. where
the familiar food dish is.
where the humans are who
played with them, fed them,
cuddled
them.
Those
"friendly" hands dropped
them in the dark in a strange
place to die by inches in
agony.
How can you sleep know­
ing that you deliberately
inflicted killing pain on six
baby animals? When you eat
your meals do you think of
their shrinking bellies. their
cries of huger? Do you feel a
shred of guilt for their
whines of pain in the night?
If by a miracle they found
their way home to you could
you look at their emaciated

To the Editor:
On behalf of the Barry
County UAW • CAP Council.
I wish to extend my sincere
thanks to your newspaper
for your coverage and par­
ticipation in the Sun Day
activities on May 3. 1978.
Your participation contri­
buted greatly lo making this
National day a huge success
and from the reactions wr
have received our goals of
making individuals, bus!
ness, government and or
ganiulions more aware of
alternate energy resources,
especially solar energy have
been achieved.
We are aware that one
National day will not create
a complete turn around of
our wasteful energy habits
and practices. Hopefully,
this turn around will be
made through individuals,
business, government and
organizations already aware
of lhe National energy prob­
lems. working together to­
ward a practical and equit­
able solution that will guar­
antee continued energy re­
sources for lhe future gener­
ations.
The UAW has long been
in the forefront of those
advocating solar power and
other alternate energy re­
sources. Therefore, it is
always a pleasure to par
licipate in activities with
those who share our in­
terests.
It is with this though in
mind that I again thank ynu
for your interest and par­
ticipation in the Sun Day
Activities.
If this organization can be
of assistance to you tn the
future please feel free to call
on us.
Yours very truly.

Zion Lutheran “Hunger Walk” Saturday
The estimate that about
430 million and perhaps a*
many a* one billion person*
arc hungry refers only to
those who do not receive
enough food. Rev. Timothy
Rothfus* of Zion Lutheran
Church at Woodland said
Il doe* not include ma)

calories but inefficient pro
trin* or other essential nu
trienta are eaten In the U.S.
alone, persistent unemploy
ment ami poverty place mil­
lion* of our fellow citiren*
among the*e malnourished.
"Why don't we hear more
about thr problem of world
hunger in lhe new* media
these days? The problem
hasn't disappeared. The
famine* that produced head
line* in 1974 and 1975 are
not present on nearly the
same scale, but severe hun

of lhe American Lutharan

If you're thinking of plant

dwarf* They're early bear
ing. easy to prune, apray and
pirk. and they require lew
•pare to grow than ordinary

Dwarf fruit trees are
vegetatively propagated
from rootstock* rather than
seed*. Routed cuttings are
budded with the desired
apple or other fruit variety
to produce a dwarf tree in
about 2' f years. This special
process produces a much
smaller tree that bears nor
mal sired fruit.
Dwarfs need the same

trees need
water, irni
liner, and disease and insect
control programs but their
small site makes these
chares somewhat easier
Spraving and harvesting can
be done without ladders.
When buying dwarf apple
trees, hackyard fruit grow
era should look for two or
three varieties, advises
Robert Carbon. Michigan
Slate University hortkul
turist. The ideal one. M.9. is
attractive for its height and
hears fruit the first or
second year after planting.
It may be in short supply,
however. Other acceptable
varieties are M.26 and M.7.
They grow a few feet taller
than M.9 and bear later.
If you prefer pears to
apples, ask your nursery
operator for a dwarf pear
that is grown on Quince A
rootstock. Peaches and
plums are usually grow n on
sand cherry. Nankin cherry
or St. Julien-A rootstocks.
Check for the rootstock on
the tag on any tree you buy.
Then you will know you're
getting a genuine dwarf.
For further information
on dwarf fruit trees and
rootstocks, consult your
county Cooperative Extra•ion Service agent. Ron Din

Pact to Ml CAC Building
to Commisnon u Valid
The agreement to sell the
Community Activities Cen
ter Building to the Commit
sion on Aging i* apparently
still in effect, despite an
earlier report to the con
trary.
l&lt;cv Schrock, now presi­
dent of the CAC. told The
Banner that she had again
talked with Attorney Rich­
ard Shaw, who upon further
investigation decided the
agreement is valid.
Earlier. Shaw had given
the opinion that the sale
agreement was invalid, due
to the wording of the CAC

bylaws. However. after re
viewing the minutes of the
CAC board, he thinks the
deal is good. Mrs. Schrock
said.
The CAC members had
been told last Tuesday that
the sale of the building,
which had been approved by
the members June fl. was
not valid because of the
bylaws.
Mm. Schrock said that she
will go ahead on the assump
tion that the sale agreement.
signed by the CAC and the
COA. is valid and binding.

Recommend Conrail
Operate Railroad, End
Service East of Hastings
James Flook of Hastings,
traffic manager for the E.W.
Bliss Company and a spokes­
man for the Valley Shippers
Association, said he plans to
attend the Stat; Highway
Commission meeting in War­
ren where the commission is
scheduled to consider recom
mendations for the Grand
Rapids to Vermontville rail
road line and the Hichland
Doster I line.
The Michigan Railroad
Advisory Council has recom
mended that Conrail be con
tinned as operator of the
railroad through Hastings
during a period of "orderly
termination of service on the
segment of the line east of
Hastings, and possibly later
back to Caledonia."
John P Woodford, direc
tor of the Advisory Council,
said the reduction in service
will save crew costs, rrhabi
Id al ton and lease cost s, and
will "thus reduce the amount
of subsidy ne.-tk-d by Con
rail, since Conrail. unlike a
short line operator, will only
allocate costs when service
is provided. Thu*, the re­
maining service will not be
burdened with large over
head or fixed costs."
Woodford said the cum
mittee "strongly believes
that this line is unsuitable
for a short line operation."
"While under existing policy
and procedures, the depart
ment must accept, review
and evaluate proposals such
as those that have been
submitted, it would not be in
the best interest .if the state

nor the proposing parties to
enter into a program that
has such little chance of
success." Woodford said
The Western Michigan
Railroad and the Kent.
Barry. Eaton Connecting
Railway submitted pro
posals to operate the line at
a public heanng held here in
May
Conrail submitted a pro
posal to continue the opera
lion of the line and said plans
were to improve 15 miles of
track to bring it up from a 10
to 20 mile per hour track
east and west of Hastings.

Woodford, in his memo
randa. said there was no
indication that the officers of
the Western Michigan com
pany “possess sufficient rail­
road administrative cap
ability: further it is not
appropriate to consider
operating with part time
personnel."
He also said the K B E
lacks railroad administrative
experience, although the
general organization pro
posal seem* appropriate if
they can secure experienced
individuals tn fill the nece*
sary positions. "A more
serious shortcoming is the
fact that their revenue is
overstated by 1115.000. and
no management fee was
entered into the financial
proposal. Introducing these
factors could seriously alter
the potential attractiveness
of this venture to the pro
poser* ’’
Wwidford said most of the
shippers expressed dissatis
faction with Conrail opera

tions. and at the public
hearing the United Trans
portal km Union was the
only Intaruoted party to
appear in support of Con
rail. Many users indicated
support for the Western
Michigan proposal, and
there are several legislators
indicating support tor both
K-B-E and Western Michi
gan
Woodford said it is the
future prospects of the line
that govern the committee's
recommendation “For the
past two years the line has
been subsidized. and there
have been no real .ndica
turns of traffic growth p&lt;&gt;
tectial except for the Dut
ton Caledonia area ’
In his memorandum
Woodford said the line's
revenue base is about 340
cars at this time. Even a
doubling of carloads and a 30
percent inflation factor
would produce only about
480.000 in revenue. This
revenue base would not
even rover the annual mini
mum maintenance require
ments of 43.000 a mile, let
alone insurance, other
operating costs, overhead
and management fees, he
said.
The future is "very weak."
One of the principal ship
per* is presently involved in

douhtedly results from lack
of adequate rail car supply,

School Bus Stops Changes Will

Increase Safety, Officer Says
Elimination about 135
*ch&lt;w4 bus stops will im
pmve bu* safety, because
many hus accidents occur al
Mops.
This was the gist of thr
message Tuesday when Sgt.
Cal Rosema of thr Stale
Police met with member* of
the Transportation Commit
tec of thr Hastings Hoard of
Education.
Rosema said hr had seen
many of the plans where
thr Transportation system
had proposed to eliminate
stops, and he said hr feels
that they should be clitni
naled in the interest of
safety.
Rosema said that under
Mate laws and policies,
school bus stops should not
be established where visi­
bility is less than 5&lt;M' fret or
where it is impossible for t hr
driver to have the warning
lights on al least 200 (ret
before thr Mop.
Hreausr nf thr hills and
curves on Barry County
roads, many Mops cannot
meet these standards. lime
ma said, and exceptions
must be made Hnwrver.
such exceptions must be
kept to a minimum, he said,
and bus drivers havr been
making Mops at ton many
places that are not safe
Thr fewer Mops the buses
make, the less risk of col
lisinns. Rosema saul.
Sgt. Roscnta and Hetty
Johnson, supervisor of the
bus drivers, said that moM
of thr changi- will lake
place in rural subdivisions or
in placrs where then1 arc
several homes close togrlh
er. Bus driven will no
longer lie allowed to provide
pickup at every door. Thr
children, inMead, will br
picki-d uji at the spot which
is considered ths* safest and
most central in each neigh
horhood
Most children will have to
walk less than I 10 mile,
according to Bob Miller,
administrative assiMant for
n&lt;»n instruction There are
children who now havr to
walk farther to a bus Mop
than any whose Mops will lechanged. Miller said.
Miller also said that run
sideration it given lo thr
youngrM children to he pick
rd up in a particular area, lo
pul the Mop as clow a*
possible t«&gt; their homes.
Rosema deeried the com
plaint of some parents that
they can no longer sec their
children as they wait al a
bu* stop. He said 'hat in the
subdivision where hr lives,
near Paw Paw. hr cannot
see his children at the school
bus stop, and very few
parent s who live in tow n ran
see their children walk nil
thr way to school.
When asked about school
bus accident Matistirs. Mill
er said hr did not have
complete ones, but had a

pretty g&lt;««l idea how many
"close rails" occur. On the
basis nf reports from the bu*
drivers. Miller said the sys­
tem averages 30 to 10 "close
calls" every school day.
"Close calls" would in
dude such thing* as driver*
passing slopped school
buw* and near acridrnls
when driver* do not see
bun's in time lo Mop or slow
down.
MoM of the "clow calls."
he said, occur when buses
arc Mopped for Mudent*.
Dr. Bill Baxter, a member
of the Transporntion Com
miller, said that parents arr
concerned that the schools
might hr "sacrificing safety
from door to bus in favor of
greater safety from hus to
school.'
Rosema replied that it is
thr parents' responsibility to
assure that the Mudrats are
•ale until they hoard the
hu&gt;. and added that many
parents do not want to take
this responsibility.
Dr. Jack Walton, another
committer member, asked it
there had ever b«-rn a com
parison made between the
policy of having four Mops
per mile, as thr Mate re
quires, and a* many a* right
Mop* per mile. Rosema *a:d
he knew of no such com­
parison.
Miller said that most of
t he 34 bus run* will havr no
more than four changes. A
few require a* many as right
or nine In the past, hr said,
hus drivers were allowed In

exercise their judgement as
to where Mops should he
made, and some of them
allow i*| too many Mops. The
supervisor will keep a closer
watch over thr stops in the
future, hr said.
Rosema commended the
Hasting* school hoard and
administration for soliciting
public input and seeking
public support for the
changes in the bu* Mop*. He
said many school district*
just put such change* into
effect, as late as a few day*
hrforr school opens.
Mr*. Johnson said that at
thr recent public hearing,
where maps were available
of the mules and proposed
Mop«, most parents seemed
to hr satisfied. She said the
maps arr always available
for parent* to see.
Miller said that since 1965.
the number of Mudent* he
ing bused daily in the Hast
ing* school district has risen
from about GOO to 2.651 last
year. Superintendent Rich
ard Guenther noted that
about Ml percent of all
Hasting* student* ride
school buses.
Miller said that another
safety measure bring taken
this year is inMailing out
»ide public address systems
on the buses. Hr said the
svMrm was tried on Mr*.
Johnson'* hu« last year, and
she found it very helpful to
be able to speak to Mudrat*
as she approached the Mop*.

BY BAHRY COVNTY
ROAD COMMISSIONERS
The Barry Count* Road
Commission ■* faced with a
very seriou* problem and we
have hern advised lo re
sped fully un-M-nt our proh
Jem lo the |&gt;c&lt;&gt;ple of thi
Count! It ha« hern pointed
out that Ihr people nf th-County have always herwilling to try and solve their
own problem*, with self help
and self effort.
Our problem is
Our
income i* derived from fee*
charged on gasoline and
license plate* for motorised
vehicle*. Thr present fees
were set back in 1972. and
due to thr energy criti* the
u*e of gasoline is down and
the weight of vehicles isle**,
which mean* the inrume i*
falling far short of the ex
penditurcs. Federal figures
show that inflation alone has
caused our income to fall
short by from tb°o to 50%
We have had two severe
winters in succession which
were very curtly. Dur- tn
these severe winters thr
spring breakup ha» also
been custh Mini blacktop
roads in the County were
built with good construct i«.n
method* and were expected
to last about H&gt; years and
with surface improvement*
were exported to go about
20 years. Many of the»e
roads arc now 40 and .'■0
years old and have nrrml
traffic remarkable well hut
the surfaces have finally
gone through many years «»f
oxidation and drying out to
the point they arr no longer
flexible. This result* in a
hard surface that break* up
under stress Thr patching
costs on some of these old
blacktop roads are becoming
extremely high and the prr »
sure of this expense on our
income is becoming t&lt;io
great. The Road Commission
feels that these older road*
should be immediately m
proved with foil mix black
top surfacing before the
road fail* so badly it would
need complete roomrtrur
lion. Reconstruction to
modern day standard*
would l»c so costly that it
would hr far out of roach of
the income now available to
the Road Commission.
Your present Road Com
mission is made up of three
men who. due to their past
employment have a rombin
rd exprnmro &lt;d well over
I0Oyears in road work Also
the Road Commission i» for
lunate in that we have many
loyal and dedicated rm
plover* rm ging from the
Engineer Manager on down
through the entire ocrinica

lion, who work very well
together
Al»o the Hoad Commi*
«K»n i» fortunate that thr
Township* have Iws-n very
&lt;o opnrgtivr. Alw&gt;tb«i Barry
County Commissioners have
cooperated in every way
tmssible.
Thr Road G-ntrwtrn and
the Road I'ommtvsion rm
plover* have pooled their
va«t experience and with thr
combined help of thr Town
ship* and thr County Com
mission we have tried to
give Ihr br»t road *crvice
possible lo the people of the
County with thr money
available.
However, no matter
where we rut expense*, we
arr not able lo reserve
enough money to enable u*
to start a comprehensive
black top surface improve
men! program We roali/e
fully that thi* i« not really a
g&gt;«&lt;i time to ask the people
fur financial help. The liming
i* not lo our choosing. but
due lo heavy Inada, inrroa*
ed traffic, and age these
mad* arr failing fart. If wr
cannot afford lo properly
maintain them wr know we
cannot afford the recon
struction cost*
ConMO|ucntly. we have

hern advised to take our
problems lo thr people in
thr form uf a 2 mill black
top improvement tax for a
few year* to enable us lo get
out of this dilemma. Without
hrlp thi* situation I* gradu
ally going lo get worse until
it h*« ■■OTimr completely out
•4 control.
We respect fully and sin
rvrely a*k that the people of
thi* county seriously con

Lovell added, "t'nderinfla

thus reducing it* tread life
and strength and increasing
the risk of sudden disable
ment."
Neglect of radial tire* is
posing a real problem, ac­
cording to Lovell. "All tires,
regardless of construction or
price, tend to lose air over a*
period of time and should be
checked every two ar three
weeks or before king trips."
Unlike bias or belted bias
tires, the cord* in a radial
tire run at right angles to
the center of lhe tread or
from rim edge to rim edge.
Two or more very stable and
strong belts, made from
steel, fiberglass, rayon or
other material*, run around
the lire's circumference
under the tread. Thi* result*
in a tire with flexible side
walls but with great stiff
nes* and strength in the
(read area.
"Radial tires have minimal
squirm, provide longer wear
and give better gasoline
milleage. Properly inflated
radial tires can deliver up to
five percent better gas mile
age." Lovell said.
The Tire Industry Safety
Council has drawn up the
following list of tip* for
radial lire,:
■Rotate radial* from front
to rear on the same side of
the car. Don't use a criss
cross rotation pattern un­
less your lire dealer recom
mend* it to correct a severe
wear problem.
For be,: performance,
radial* sl.ould be used on all
wheel positions. But if you
must mix tire* of different
construction, always put the
radials on the rear.

which are original equip­
ment on many auto*.
"Remember, don't let that
bulge in a radial fool you. It
can lose air like a tire of any
other construction," l»vell
said. "I'm afraid we've
grown to accept that soft or
underinflated look, and thi*
could lead to trouble."

The Road Commission and the Road Commission

posable to the people of the County with the money
available However, no matter where we cut eipensos we
ve nr.t able tn reserve enough money to enable us to start a

WE realm* futty that th.* is not really a good time to ask

but due to heavy toads, mcreased traffic, and age these

mam*am them, we know we cannot afford the reconstruct

problems to the people m the form of a 2 mill black top

getting lower bids. How
ever, after numerous con
tart« made in rerent days,
only one contractor express­
ed an interest, and there
was no certainty he would
bid.
The DPW also felt Chat it
wa* under prr«*urr from thr

that a promised la* limita­

The board recently ac­

DPW tnemfa-r* had hoped
to attract interest from po

the project. in thr hopes of
getting lower bids. How
ever, after numerous con
tart« made in rerent days,
only one contractor express­
ed an interest, and there
was no certainty he would
bid.
The DPW also felt Chat it
wa* under pressure from thr
stale Ensironmenla) Prater

bid*, and there are fears
that a pnqtored la* limita­

problems if thr project were

The Barry County Road Commission is asking
for a levy of 2 mills for six years to be used to
improve roads throughout the County. After the
Incorporated Municipalities receive their share as
required by law the remaining millage [about
$414,000 a year) will be divided, with one-half
going to the Townships and one-half to the Road
Commission.
With its half of the revenues, the Road
Commission plans to resurface about 20 miles per
year of County Primary Roads, for a total of 120
miles by the time the millage expires in 1984.
The map below shows the projects which are
planned by the Road Commission under the
program. Some funds from the Federal Govern­
ment and the Townships will supplement Road
Commission funds to make this possible.

The millage is necessary because the reve­
nues from State gas and weight taxes are not
increasing, but the costs of maintaining and
improving roads have risen drastically. It is far
cheaper to resurface these roads now and maintain
them in good condition, than to rebuild them later
after they have deteriorated.
With their share, the Municipalities can make
much needed repairs to local streets, and the
Townships can make progress on badly needed
Local Road improvements. Every resident of the
County will see improvement in streets and roads
in his area.
This is not a permanent millage - it is for 6
years only. Vote for the millage on August 8 and
see the results for yourself in street and road
maintenance and improvements right here in
BARRY COUNTY.

To the EcHlar:
In replv In Mr. Carl A.
Bnxdiex-k* lei ter in The
Hanner nt July 24. 1978. we
would like to clarify a few
point*lo avoid possible mis­
understandings of (he Road
Commission'* operation.
1. A statement of the
Road Commi**ion'« income
and expenditure* is publish
cd e.vch year in the County
Commission minute* i*ee
Banner of June 5. 1978 for
the 1977 report.)
2. Thr Road Commission
receive* gas and weight tax
revenue* in quarterly pay­
ment*. They project what is
needed to cover payroll and
hili* for the next 30 day* and
the balance i« invested in
rertificatr* of deposit at
the highest available in­
terest rate. By the end of
the quarter, there is no
money invested, and often it
i* necessary to delay the
payment of bill* until the
next quarterly payment ar­
rives. Thr investment of
money until it i« needed is
only v-nod management.
3. All Roaii Commission
meeting* are open to the
public, we ask that those
attending would a«k inform
rd question* and offer con­
structive criticism. We
would prefer to know in
advance if someone will be in
attendance *o they ean be
scheduled on thr agenda.
4. We have no power to
impose a direct tax on the
user. If a county tax were
levied on gt* and regixtra
tion. the people would buy
out*ide thr county and we
would lose more than gain.
5. The idea of a millage on
real curtate for road purpose*
i» not nearly aa inequitable
as some people would claim.
Thr paid ad in thr Hrmindrr
of July 18. 1978 demon
urates that the state and
federal government* would
refund a large portion of
the additional mad tax. The
net cost of better road* in
Barry County would he sur­
prisingly low

UAW Local 1002 Strikes Bradford-White Tuesday

The old contract expired

Uveal 1002 President Bud
Summers said 595 union
members voted Tuesday
morning and by a “fairly
narrow margin", defeated
the company's offer.
Summers said the major
reasons for rejection by
the rank and file were
medical and hospitalization
benefits for retirees and the
low ended raise for the first
year Summers would not
elaborate on the proposal.
No talks arr scheduled
between bargainers.
"I think it will probably be
an extended strike." said
Summers this morning.
"There arr no hopes for an
early settlement."

Bees Are Surrounded

By Myths, Folklore
Mankind has been fas
cinalrd by her* for thou

man hunted wild bee* for
their honey and made tuhe*
of leave* and tiark in hope
that hers would inhabit
them. Thr brr was thr royal
insect nf Egypt, and bev
keeping wa* practiced hy th
Gcrrks and the Roman*
(het thr years, a sizable
bndy of bee lore and super
slitinns grew up around this
mysterious insect and the
wonderful things it pro
dure*. Science ha* shown

nothing more than myth and
misconception. Accoring to
apicullurist* at Michigan

some "old wives' tales"
about hers have some truth

Close observation of her
behavior has led to a number
of saying about bees a*

"A common saying i* that
brrs stay close to the hive
when rain i* close by.” says

They don't like to fly on
rainy or foggy days, so they
will lend tn slay close lo

"Esprrirncrd beekeepers

watching I heir bees. And
they know enough no* io
visit the hives when thr
barometer is falling. The
bee* tend to get a little
aggressive
when
the
weather is unsettled and
they're crowded into thr
hive.
Another common saying
is. "A bee wa* never caught
in a show er " This one is not
true. A quick summer show­
er may very well catch some
of the workers out in the
field. They simply lake
cover umirr leaves and wait
thr rain out.
Thr notion that ringing
bell*, banging on pots and
pans and blowing horns will
charm a swarm of bees into
settling down to he captured
i* also false "Oner the brr*

A common bev super

told alwiut a death in Ihe
family of their keeper. If
l hev're not. I hey may die. Or
they mav fail to produce any
honey Or they may resent
firing neglected and simply
fli away. Thr person who
tells Ihe her* must do mi
politely, to avoid offending
the tw-rs. In some cultures,
the person who tell* her* of
a death refers to thr dr
rra*«i pvr»&lt;.n a* a relative
nf the her*: father, uncle.
N»lrr. etc.
"This ma win of thr bees as
part of thr family may
explain why many |ieople
have felt it unlucky to sell
lire*." *uggrs|* graduate
student Gordy Wardell
"After all vou

Thr notion that it’s unlucky
to m-II tier* I* fairly common
in Eurofwan bee lore. It'*

truth to it.
"ftevkevpmg I* more than

poin’* out. "It take* some
work to keep bee colonies
healthy and strong. If the
beekeeper is ill so he can't
tend hi* her* properly, they
probably will suffer from it."
Another common belief
•ilh M&gt;mr fact behind it is
I hr idea t hat it '* grind luck to
have a swarm of tier* make
thrir home in or around your
bouse nr garden. Though it's
hard to convince the city
riw eller with a rolony of bev*
in his wall that hr i* lucky to
have them there, the veget­
able or fruit grower whose
prosperity depends on beepollinated crops is more than
glad tn take in a new swarm.

The health claim* made
for honey over the years
could fill n hook. Even today,
practitioners of folk med
icine claim that honey sooth

tract; relieves raspy coughs;
acts as a sedative, a tranquil

Reficeling the renewed

reursr* in blacksmithing.

"Thr techniques for metal

Although early pioneers

blacksmith was essential to
every settlement. He prac

rar in the study were in a crash and 25 percent of it* part*

Insurance companies continue to fight thr n»ing cost

Insurers have supported federal regulations requiring

They also have called upon manufacturers to build more

interview. Enough to know that it is an on going experiment
of people relating and learning cooperatively and because
experiments and |&gt;eoplc rarely fall into neat categories. I
knew as I pulled into the area parking lot that thia
assignment might br like trying to "light a penny candle
from a Mar."
Barnaba* Johnson, an attorney fmm St. Louis. Mo. and
a CPC Mali person, is a vocal advocate of the Center'*
philosophy and one of thr host * for my tour. “We're a school,
not juM for the three Rs. but a school for life as well. I like to
call u» a Community for Cooperative Culture." John*on
explained obviously warming to his subject. “Plato advised
u* that the atmosphere, the surrounding* are vitally

"Are you a community or commune like Twin Oaks in
Virginia?" I asked trying to find Mime reference point while
mentally conjuring up a penny candle or two. "No, not in
that sen*r. although they too are practicing an alternate
lifestyle. None of our members live here thr year round
although wr do have some resident Maff to keep thr Crntrr
going for event* like crosscountry skiing and maple sugar
time. No. for us it's a value system that exist* when a
member comes from Chicago. Windsor or wherever that he
or she walks into the minute they arrive." Barnabas
explained.
We were joined then by Hie Timmons, thr creative and
energetic Director of CPC. Hugs were exchanged and I
remembered fmm previous visits that folks did a lot of
hugging around here. One member who is a doctor once told
me that people need at least three good hug* a day. just a*
important as vitamin*. Seem* like Circle Piners have
le.imed lo touch each other without embarrassment.
Hie pointed out the fact that within the Center's

membership, but their physical envolvement in the work
“Professionals drop their titles to work with everyone

may perform a job and since CPC is an educational center,
work is one of our primary tool* " Through our work we
learn new skill*, new techniques." Barnaba* and an eager
group of older kid* gathered round to say good by. They
were off Iodo Mime practice climbing lo prepare (or a trip to
the Rockies this summer for a campout ano real mountain
challenges.
Meanwhile, a small group remained to continue thr
interview.
"Because of our financial situation, work here ran often
tw an adventure in learning how to do much with little." Bic
coni inued.
“Nc.t unlike n... budget.' I replied.
“Doesn't hurt u* all that much. Thr concept of doing
much with little i* an especially critical one io out future
leader*, our children. Because of increasingly limited natural
resource* you learn to re cycle and it * a difficult concept to
integrate into thr individual and world consciousness

through a pine woods member* planted some thirty years
ago. 'The pine grove* we plant and thin can be both
beautiful and a «ourrr of building material; the organic
garbage is tran*formrd from trash to pig food and compost*
for the garden*." Bic said. We made our way to thr main
house where thr community kitchen, dining room. bath* and
library arc located.
Wood is the main source of heat and the central focus in
thr library is a cozy Erankiin Move around which members
curl up with a good book or rhat together in winter. "You

Consumers Power Company is alerting Ha electnr
customers who are senior citizen* of a new program which
could reduce their electric bills.
"We have begun preparations lo implement the order of
the Michigan Public Service Commission to provide an
optional senior citizens rate for our electric customer*,"
Gordon Howard. Distort Manager of the Batlie Crrek
District of Consumer* Power Company, aaid today.
Perron* at least 65 year* old who are head* of
households are eligible to receive electric service at lowrr
rate* under a new rate schedule established July 31 by the
public mtmcc commission. The company estimate* that

requirement*.
Thr company i« preparing contracts to mail lo those
who applv and is reviewing the use records of all customers
In determine who would benefit from the new rale.
"According to thr commission** order." Howard »aid.
“the prrw.n must hr the head of the household and num be
at k-art 65 year* old. but no minimum income level wa* **•• "
I hr new available rate was designed by the commission
to provide savings for senior citizen* who use lower amounts
of rlrctriritv than the average family.
For elect nr customers without electric water heating,
thr special rale will result in a saving* of 28.1 percent for a
customer using up to 300 kilowatt hours of electricity a
month, and a savings of 4.9 percent for one using up to 500
kiiow alt hour* For customers with electnc water beating,
the sfH-cial ratr will result in saving* on monthly usage up to
950 kilowatt hour*.
Onre usage esceedt 500 kilowatt hour* a month for
non water heating customers under the special rate. saving*
begin to fall off At the level ol 550 kilowatt hour*, a slight
increase in thr tali would lie noted F\&gt;r a customer using
1 .000 kiiow atthour* a month, the senior eituen rate would be
much more coati*
The cnmmi»»Mm intend* for this rate u&gt; cut energy
mrta for senior ritimts." Howard said, "but those who use
large jrrount* of electncity will be better off staying on the
regular rate."
Employer* of Consumer* Powers rale, customer
*rr*ir»- and &lt;omputcr operation* department* are doing the
moindwork needed to implement the rate. Howard said

"Pippin." This musical was
highly acclaimed on Broad
way where it became quite a
success. We agree with that
opinion. Mr. Fullerton im
plies that "Pippin" is not a
musical. But according to
John Sherwood of the "En
quirer and News." ' Pippin"
"comes close" to being the
perfect musical play. In
reference lo the musk,
which Mr. Fullerton did not
seem to care for. we found
the score to be most en­
joy able and the lyrics very
clever.
In reference to Mr. Fuller
ton'* statement that the
storyline is "Thin and Trite",
we wish to reply that if Mr.
Fullerton had tried to under
stand the real basis of the
play, he would find the
theme most revealing. It is
our opinion that "Pippin" is a
musical concerning a young
man's quest for unattainable
goals.
The humor which Mr.
Fullerton refers to as being
"vulgar" is merely a rcflre
tion of life itself, whkh is. all
to often, vulgar.
We agree, to some extent,
with Mr. Fullerton’s evalua­
tion of the cast of "Pippin"
but we believe that Sal
Aiello did not receive the
recognition he so justly de
serves. Aiello E an excellent
actor and singer, with a
voice that the audience
seems to fall in love with.
Angrln Mango is a strong
actor with an exceptional
voice. Mango provides con
tinuity not to the story but
to the musical while set
changes are being made, as
well as supplying indicental
details. His presence on the
stage is not to incite in­
terest on the stage, as Mr.
Fullerton suggests. The re­
mainder of the cast is also
quite excellent but are too
numerous to mention.
"Pippin." in our opinion is
a fine adult musical, al­
though the members' ages of
our party ranged from
eleven years to fifty-five
years, and was enjoyed by
all. "Pippin" has just the
right amount of humor and
insight to offset the bask
theme that is being pre
tented.
Because we thoroughly
enjoyed "Pippin" we did not
take Mr. Fullerton's sugges
tion to visit the rehearsal
shed lounge. We suggest
that Mr. Fullerton open his
mind before he reviews
another fine musical such as
"PippinNancy Wills

Sandi Paltok. my teacher,
asked me to wnle this
letter She said it was my
decision whether or not to
say anything about the situ
ation I was in while com
pleting my High School Edu
cation. I've chosen lo do to.
because I felt it was impoc
tant for others to realize just
how I feel about this dipk&gt;

Barry County Jail runs an
Adult Education class every
week day Inmates are not
forced to attend. If they
wish to participate in the
classes, they speak with the
Jail Administrator.
When I was incarcerated.
I had a few decisions to
make pertaining to this edu­
cation. 1 had quit high school
in the middle of my senior
sear I needed only five
credits to complete high
school It was quite obvious
that attending this class
could he a means by whkh to

complete my education. I
made i he decision to go!
But. there was another
important decision I had lo
make. This class was the
only time in whkh any
•ocialiring of any kind look
place. Was this going to be
my only goal for attending
the class? This was import­
ant for my future and for
myself, academically.
I decided, before even
attending the class. I would
get my diploma. The only
way to do this was to work,
not socialize.
I had very little con
fidenev in myself, very little
pride. I gave up to easily.
But because of my teacher
and others close to me. I
began to really feel I could
reach my goal. Sandi (wiped
me with this handicap so it
could not hold me hack, as it
inevitably would have. I was
very fearful of taking that
almighty GEI&gt; Text. To tne
it seemed impossible that I
would ever pass.
I took the first test. This
was really the turning point
of my attitude concerning
self confidence. I scored
high, too good lu tie true;
look thr second one. same
thing. I was elated. My
teacher expressed her confi­
dence in me. But more im­
portantly. I felt an inner
pride of my excellent start.
From then- on I knew I
could reach this important
goal. I say important be
cause to me it was import
ant. I chose tn use my
incarceration time construc­
tively. I terl my completing
High School was important.
As many of you loo felt it
was important.
We each
have our own reasons. I had
mine. 1 wanted to prove, not
toothers, but lo myself, that
I could succeed by reaching
this goal. And I have, shall
we say, overcome some of
my personal handicaps
This diploma symbolizes
more then just the com­
pletion of 13 years of erluca
tion. It in itself is but a piece
of paper But. the lessons I
learned while obtaining this
education means a lot.
Because of reaching this
goal I am now confident I
can go further; I can sue
eeed There is a desire to
seek further education, such
as college; whereas before I
cared very little for acade
mk education. There was

Howard Wolpe Is Excited!

People Are Finally Awakening
Hownrd Wnlpe is excited.
And thr reason hr's rxcitrd
is because hr feels that the
people are finally awakening
and moving to regain control
over their government
Wolpe. thr Democratic
candidate for the Fifth Dis­
trict Congressional seat held
hv Rrpuhliran Garry Brown,
told the Hastings Kiwanis
Club last week that Cali­
fornia's Proposition 13 has
■started something....that I
think is pretty exciting."
Although Wolpe does not
arree with the Proposition
13 approach, he «ays the tax
limitation's sucres* in Cali
forma show* the trrmen
does power of the people.I’rmr to the recent wave of
constitutional question* on
the ballot, most people felt

"very powerless." Wolpe
told thr Kiwanian*.
Wolpe said that he see*
parallel interests between
small business, farmer* and
worker*. He eitrd the loss of
35.000 small businesses a
vear through bankrvpty.
and thr loss of three million
familv farms since World
War II. and decried the
trend toward bigness in
husinrvs. labor and govern
mrnt.
Asked about his opinion of
the Carter administration.
Wnlpe said that he "won't
even attempt" to defend lhe
President. Neither the
President nor the Congress
ha* done the job." Wolpe
said, adding that he was
“very disappointed" at both.
Speaking on tax limita

farmer, and it deter* pro
perty improvement.
Wolpe spent lhe entire
day in lhe Hasting* area,
doing such thing* a* drop
ping into local restaurant*
and coffee shop*, greeting
workers al plant gale*, and
ending up at a Democratic
Party reception in the eve­
ning.

We have a sequel to the recent comment
»f Rae Hoare’s Republican "victory"
’Twas not all spontaneous As a matter of
fee*. Pra«riev&gt;ne Township Supervisor Joel
Woi'y ac'iveiy urged his feflow Republicans
tn wire her name in. and passed out a
handbin outside the poling place to chow
v-'ec* how to write-in a name
When asked. Joel said he paid 114 40 to
have the copies made on the township’s
office copier, and the same service «
jvadabte m anyone else
Ba"er lay in a good supply of copter paper.
Joel We hear that politicking is going to be
•he favorite hobby in Prairievitte Township
•his fan. and a lot of folks might want to use
thr copier

No matter what your political leanings, you
have tn kke Howard Wolpe when you meet
him He has the abCry to make friends even
am-&gt;ng those who might not agree wtth
s me of h&lt;s political bekefs
Hl ■word's new buttai than when he's
■eihng about some of hte own triale and
•nbulatinns on the political trail.
For inrance, he campaigns in a small truck
labeled the "Wolpe Wagon” The Wolpe
wag»n is less than perfect, however, and
recen'ly he had to enter Eaton Rapids rather
•gnnmininusly, dangfing from the back of a
•ow ’ruck.
Then there’s a king, involved story about
•he 'ruck breaking down and then running
nu* nf gas. and how it took Howard moet of
■he night to get home, though it should
have been an hour's drive or so.
Howard has the ab*ty to see these
dteenuraging events with humor and ob
lec’ivi’v We hope he can look at political Me
wf h ’he same perspective.

HUGH'S MUSE

Kids’ Favorite, Plank Road Farm,
Goes the Way of the Stagecoach
Bv HUGH FULLERTON
Bannar Publisher
A foot institution closed its pates thb
week, with a few tears from pre schoolers,
but hardly a notes among ’be adults
f was Plank Road Farm, that marvstou*
place Ire keh near Bradtev
Many of you without small children
probably never visited Plank Road It was
'here for more than a decade, yet not very
wed known in Barry County
Plank Rnad was many things a petting
zoo nl farm animals, several kiddie rides, a
re creation ol old ways of farming and living
Ru' beat of »« it wa* a place families could
go for an outing, clean, safe, and not too
eapensrve and |usi have a good time. It had
a picnic area, a merry 5)0-round, pens with
lambs and kids where youngsters could pet
and feed 'he aromals even a stagecoach
Plank Road was most dafinrteiy not an
amusement park ft had very fotle for cMdren
&gt;*vor the age of 10 or so to do But rt waa
great for the bttle ones
Why &lt;fcd It fold’ The obvious reason was
lack of attendance In recent years, attend­
ance had boon falling, according to Cow Boil
Sooita. the parent company. They cted
increasing competition from similar places
It'S probably more complex than that.
Plank Rnad couldn't seem to decide whether
■’ wanted to be a farm or a playground. It had
enme guaktiao of both, but perhaps not
enough of okher Success apparently came
so ooeay n the fest few years that the
• wners felt It was not necessary to promote
f heevdy It seams ironic that many Hastings
pw pie were knle aware of it. although it is
abrxi’ 20 minutes dnve away

They also had a curious ticket pokey
which benefited focal residents who went
often The tickets were fairly high pnred. but
•hey were afeo season passes So after the
first visit each year, the only cos- wee that of
rides, food. etc. Nee for the patrons, but
perhaps a hard way to make a profit
At any rate, it seams a shame ihet a dean,
pleasant. fam8y-type operation can't make it.
We hope something elee wB come along to
fa the void

ODDITY Did you know there's a tbsirici
judge m Montcalm County named Benjamin
Franklin’
Remember Harold J. Foster, who was
county ag agent here back at the IMO’S’
Hfa eon. Lachlan H. (Lach) Foster dropped
by The Banner a few days ago He’s an
attorney with a large firm m Loe Angetee
now and highly regarded there
Lach was a debater at Haetngs High
School and went on to cobege at Micfegan
State He wife, the former Phytb* Green was
rawed m Woodland
Lech's father wes promoted m the
Extension Service and moved to East
Lansing Ha finally retired in 1983 A couple
nf years later, he spent some time in
Okmawa helping them eatabkeh an exten
efon service there
We heard about Lach a year or so ago.
when m,- taster went to work for hi* low firm
in L A She gets the Banner and passed hers
on tn han Lach and Phytts began reatbng it
regutarty. and say they eryoy the news about
old friends in this area

The interview wa» to he conducted by Alice Fish,
irtirulatv and vigorous. who presented herself with a firm
h.md.hake I M-aled myself at the kitrhen table while Alice
made coffee for us It wa. early morning and the kids, Jim
Jr . age IK. and Su«an. age 15. were bu»y at the Kalamazoo
fount v Fair and Mr Fish left with a liM of supplies to
brmr to them Daughter Tamie. age 20. home from college

except for the blur jay. singing to themselves in the neat

Mire mines! me xn»' thr table. hugged a mug of hot
coffee and prepared herself to talk to the media after a
ailrmt* ol throe year*.
&lt;iii know how I iiMil to handle talk. alxHit PUB." she
confided. "1 rned It ’, hard for me- now to discus, it without
tearing up I hardly know where to begin "
When we first heard about PBB. we figured it had
nothim i • do with u». We were assured by lhe Farm
Univ.hi that wewere clean. We didn’t make thr connection
when our herd brg.m lo fail. I believe if somebody in Farm
|tiir&gt; it w.Hild have Mid that there wa. even a vague
!-••• • itlj (,(contamination, most of u» would have saved
r
mmal*. We would have at lra«t known what to look
fot
i«- continued.
Method* we've used for .KI year* didn't seem to help
and our rattle .implv began to exhibit Mrr»* One row
might hav« .&gt; sucres* calving one time and we’d lose her
ami thr calf the nest time. We spent thousand* of dollar*
for v.i service, and the best medical treatment and still
the* dud. We thought we had lost our touch."
What were the symptoms?" I asked.
"&gt;•«; name it, we had it. The Guernsey land read
differently from PUB than thr Holstein. The Holstein dun p
it into their milk, while our* never did. We throw awayoir
no .it but continued to drink our milk. Even in "75 when we
w« re quarantined our milk tested drinkable. Other thing*
lik. .tro*. at calving tune, milk fever, elongated fret,
.wo n *„r.t» and open *.«-*; even m&gt; it wasn t as harsh on
the lo om*' -v a* the Holstein." Alice refilled our rof're
mint*

Through all this, we became eloser as a family. We
had had every materia) advantage and suddenly the kids
couldn’t &lt;lo or have those extras anymore. Tamie could not
goto her father’s college because we could no longer afford
an out of .tale school. She had lo work to pay for her own
expenses AH the kid. work hard and know the value of a
dollar li wa. the kid* who bolstered us when their Dad
and I were low. I hail to sell out my antique business on lhe
Village square, re mortgage, etc. and always thia
tremendous financial drain to keep us going."
Feeling restless. Alice moved around a bit as she
continued to .peak.
"It isn’t ju*t lhe money thing, but folks at fairs and
cattle shows suddenly become wary of us; like we had
leprosy. We couldn't .hip our cattle for market during
quarantine, but we could do shows. It waa this fear, thi*
lark of knowledge we al) felt. feel. I guess it will be long
pa»t mv lifetime before we have all the facts: contaminated
food chain, all the other ramifications. If it wasn't for a
scientist friend of our* who drew diagrams and explained
hi us in lay fashion lhe make up of the Firemaster, the 143
wav* thi. toxic substance ran break down into a living
•vstem. we wouldn't have this grasp of it."
'Are you Ml isfled this accident will not happen
again?"
"I call it a mishap rather than an accident." she replied
once mon- scaling herself. "When any company is
permitted to sell fond, human or anima1, with toxic
chemical* around, they must have tome real safety
control* These controls must be enforced somehow, not
just t&lt;» protect the consumer, but employees as well. I think
it wa* hound to happen winner or later, this mishap.
Iirrauw nr didn’t have these proper control*. At least now
w-e are taking a closer look at other chemical* better
procedure* to protect against this happening again."

"Have you or your family experienced any ill health
because of the I’HB?"
"You’ll always question the health thing." Alice
answered, "as soon as we understood. we stopped eating
our meal: .topped selling it. Who really know, -we seem
O.K."
"Every day I'm grateful that we still have the farm,
thr cattle on the land, our home. During the trial in
Cadillac, and I was there for 14 month* I met a lot of good
farm people who will never return to the land. For many
reasons, some loo old to Mart again, too III. etc. and for
them, a way of life ha* ended" Alice smiled the kind of
»mile we use when we could ju»t as easily cry instead.
It was a small glimpse into a modern tragedy and 1
wanned to thr woman who shared it with us. For we are
related by ecology, the urban and rural people, and our
concern must hr followed by artion. Perhaps the cow is our
canary bird, the one* the miners carried into the earth to
test for leaking gas. and her life and well being might very
well signal our own.

PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that on
Sept 12. 1978. the Board of Commis­

resolution authorizing the issuance of
bonds in the amount of $7,370,000 to

"Pursuant to the authorization pro­
vided in Act 185, Public Acts of
Michigan, 1957. as amended, the full
faith and credit of the County is hereby

defirier.cy. the County Treasurer shall

becomes necessary for the County to so
advance any such moneys, it shall be
entitled to reimbursement from any
surplus from time to time existing in the
fund from which said principal and
interest are primarily payable, or from
any other legally available source. The
County recognizes and covenants that
to the extent necessary to provide funds
to meet its full faith and credit pledge
herein provided, it is obligated to levy ad

Collective Bargaining By

State Police Is Proposal G

Wedding Pay

Not Far
Awq? &lt;

By DORIS J. RICHARDSON
County Extorwcn Dicectm
COLLECTIVE BARGAINING BY STATE
TROOPERS PROPOSAL G
HitK'ry and Background ■ Stale trooper*
are both civil aervice (classified) employee*
and police officer*. The Michigan constitu­
tion deme* the right nf collective bargaining
to clawlred public employees, but since 1965
non ctaaeified pubic employees have bad tbe
nght tn bargain coaectrvefy &lt;Mth their
employer* Thus, other prbce officers being
unclassified have coiectrve bargaining nght*
Moreover, atnc* 1989 Michigan police and
firefghter* have rights of binding arbitration
Binding arbitration require* both paniea tn
accept the decision of the arbitrator. Thua, a
strike a* a method of settling disputes is
illegal.
The Proposal
The petition which was
distributed by the Michigan State Police
Troopers Association provides:
' State Trooper* and Sergeants shall,
through thee eiected representative designs
ted by 50 percent of such trooper* and
sergeant*, have the right to bargain oMtoctrvely with their employer concerning condh
ticns of their employment, compensation,
hour*, working eruditions, retirement, pen
siens. and other aspects ol employment
except promotion* which wfl be determined
by competitive examination and perfor­
mance on the basis of merit, efficiency, and
fitness; and they shall have the right 30 day*
commencement of such bargaining to
submit any unresolved dispute* Io binding
arbitration for the resolution thereof the
same as nr-w provided by law for Pubbc
Police and Fire Departments "

Arguments Pro-­
11 The same or similar skills at* needed to
be a State Police Trooper a* for other police
officer* Therefore, these workers should
have comparable rights including coNeclive
bargaining.
21 Wages and benefits of Stale Trooper*
have fallen behind those of many police
departments and it is expected that collective
bargaining will improve the economic posi­
tion of ths IHn-pers
31 Since trooper* represent only about
2H% of al state employee*, the cost to the
State of admrrustenng collective barga-n-ng
and of any increases in benefit* would be
minimal
41 Since the petition provides for binding
arbitration, the possibility of a strike is no
greater (or even less) than without collective
bargaining rights.
Argument* Con ■■
11 When one takes 0 civil service fob. one
receive* certain benefits of job security and
grievance procedure which are a substitute
for coHectrve bargaining
21 Increased salaries of Stat* Trooper* wdl
increase taxes or lower benefit* to other
state funded program*
31 If troopers receive the rights t&lt;&gt; bargain
coBectivety. other civil service employees
may also seek those right*. Collective
bargaining by all civil service employees
would create additional cost* to the public
for the administration of collective bargain­
ing and any additional benefits received.
Commentary - If tha potitk'n ballot fails, it
is expected that th* Michigan State Poke*
Trooper* Association vnk continue to press
for collective bargaining right*

i* still a member of the
Barry Branch St. Joseph
Consortium for CETA pur
poses, and will remain so for
at least three month* or no.
John Martinoff. executive
director of the Calhoun
CETA program. e*'imated
that It would take 90 days to
get approval from higher
level* and do the paper work
necessary to create a new
CETA consortium for Cal
houn and Barry Counties.
Hr said he expect* to meet
this week with Robert i’rn
dleton. director of the sU.v—
Bureau of Employment and
Training, to get his approval
for the new consortium. He
doe* not expect any problem
getting the stale okay.
Martinoff said that right
now. he sees no reason to
make drastic change* in the
( ETA program from the

way it ha* been run in Barry
County. “We're not in the
business of re inventing the
wheel", he commented.
He said that until he is in
charge of the program for
both counties. "We have to
assume that the program in
Barry County has been adc
quate."
The money just received
by a Calhoun program will
permit it to continue one
week into October, he said.
Previously approved funds
had been used up.

Alter that, further fund
ing of all CETA program* ia
up to the Congress, which at
last report had not approved
the nationwide CETA pro
gram for the fiscal year
which start* Oct. I.
There are indication*
though that ffoblw Service
Employment program* will
be curtailed in the coming
year, and CETA will empha
size programs for young
people and veterans return­
ing to civilian lite.

Karpinski added.
"Another thing I'm really
proud of. Our players were

showed a l«t of backbone."
There seldom ha* been
such jubilation by a Hastings
team, and fan*, than there
was at Harper Creek after
the Saxons posted their win
in the second overtime after
holding the strong Beavers
from scoring.
After thr first quarter the
Hasting* stand* were quiet.
Harper Creek had scored in
10 play* on a drive that
covered 89 yard*, and soon
after Larry Weimer inter
cepted a Saxon pass and re­
turned the ball to the two.
Harper scored again, and it
was 14 0.
The Saxon* battled right
back. On their second pos
session of the second quar
ter Quarterback. Mike Col­
grove pa**ed to End Steve
Hammond for 8. Then Tail­
back Dan King broke tackle*
and danced down the right
side of the field for a first
down on the Harper Crock 4.
King powered for 3. Col
grove was held on a keep
then King smashed over.
Kevin McMahon kicked
the first of hi* three vital
extra points and the deficit
had been cut in half.
Harper Creek fumbled on
Beavers' next possession
and Hasting* recovered on
the enemy 43 with 5:05 left
tn the half. King got 3 yards
in two toes. Colgrove who
passed beautifully most of
the night hit End Rick Van
Engcn who had gotten be

•core unmolested.
Both team* threatened
during the rest of tbe regu
lar game, but it ended 14-14.
Hastings had the first pos
session in the firrt extra
period, and King scored in
two plays, picking up 2
yard* his firrt crack and
slammed into the end zone
on the second. McMahon
booted the hall through the
upright* and it was 21-14.
On the first play. Har
per * quarterback tossed a
little flair pas* to l-arry
Weimer for the touchdown
and Rial kicked the point
■ending the game into the

■&gt;econd overtime.
Thi» time Harper had firat
chance. Jerry Tramel got 6
yards in two tries. Hastings
stopped the next rush. A
fourth down pass was in­
complete but Hasting* was
called for face guarding the
intended receiver and the
Saxon* had their first penal
ty of the night, a yard and a
half, putting the ball just
that far from the goalline.
The entire Saxon team rose
up and stopped the next
Braver thurst. Harper was
called for illegal procedure.
Naturally, it was refuted
and it wa* Hastings' ball.
Again, in two play* King
scored. He again got 2 his
first try. and went in on the
second.
Hasting* kicked off to
start the game and Harper's
offense looked like the ad
vanrod billing. The Beavers
moved for a firrt down de­

second series Hastings forr

and the second first down
put the ball on the 19. Here
the drive faltered and the
Saxons gave up the ball just
inside the 10.
From there Harper went
on a touchdown drive that
included fine passing by Rial
to Steve Vallenari. which
covered 28 yard*, and thr
touchdown aerial to Brian
Herr which covered 16
yard*.
Hastings' neat effort was
halted by an interception,
which setup the Beaver'*
second TD.
In thr second period Hast
ings got back in tbe game
with the scores by King and
Van En gen.
Hasting* missed another
opportunity to score about
midway in the third nuu
when Colgrove passed to
Stu Rogge for 23 yard* and a
first down on the Harper 9.
King lost 5 then David Bay*
intercepted another Col­

grove aerial to end the
threat.
It was Harper's turn to
move and two first down*
put the ball on the Hasting*
33. Two rushes netted 6 then
Bays wa* smeared and Har­
per drew a 15 yard penalty.
U'endaU Armour smeared
the quarterhack on the fol­
lowing play and Harper
punted.
Again Bay* intercepted a
Colgrove pass and again the
Beaver* were on the move

Approve Plan to Beautify Downtown With Trees
A beautification project
for downtown Hasting* wa*
approved at Monday night*
regular city council meeting
when aldermen voted to join
a community project for
planting 40 trees rm State
and Jefferson Street*.
The council agreed to pay
50 percent of the cost which
is estimated at $8,000.

Ilans are to plant 40
trees. Eight will be planted
on each aide of each block on
State between Church
Street and Michigan, and on
South Jefferson from State
to Court. Trees are expected
to cost about 150, and in
stallatkm 1150.
Curt Stevenson, president
of the Hastings Area Cham­

The
Hastings

ber of Commerce, and Mike
McKay, chairman of the
Retail Committee of the
Chamber, presented the
plans to the council, point
ing out that Williams 4
Works, consulting en­
gineers. suggested beautifi­
cation steps be taken
modestly.
While the Chamber of

Commerce is spearheading
the proposal, it is to lie a
community effort as some
businessmen in the down
town area are not member*
of the organization. Busi
nessmen are to be asked to
help finance the project.
Stevenson said Downtown
Trees Committee would be
formed.
Plantings may begin soon.

GOOD GUYS, but if you
should meet a BAD GUY....
HE READY! IJttlc Red Hid
ing Hood was fooled by the
HAD wolf who looked like
her GOOD grandmother.
HAD GUYS usually try to
look like GOOD GUYS.
Don’t be fooled. If anybody
docs anything to make you
wonder tell your mother,
dad or some other GOOD
GUY. right away.
Never jusi wonder about
anybody. If you think you
have met a HAD GUY
report him at once so he
won't escape. How can you
tell a GOOD GUY from a
HAD GUY? A HAD GUY
may ask you to ride in hi*
car. may offer you toys,
candy or money, may invite
you into an empty building
or room, mav ask you to lift
up or unbutton your cloth
mg. DON’T DO ANYTHING
that a stranger asks you to
do, run and get away fast.
Your good friend lhe
polnvman. know* all about
BADGUYS He will capture
them quicker with your
help If a HAD GUY bothers
you. report him to the police
There ar«- three ways you
can help: l.l Remember how
hr look*. 2.1 Gel his car

Jim and Elaine Jackion Now

Own Store in Champion
The thought of being a
widow at 35 Beared the hell
out of Elaine Jaduon.
"It was a heartbreak tor
me to see him on tranquiliz
crs and deeping pQl». He
couldn't deep at night. It
was aa if he were a time
bomb ready to explode," the
remembered.
The story is about Jim
Jackson, former manager of
the Kroger Store in Hast­
ings ana a former exalted
ruler of the Hastings Elks
l«odge.
The story, by Dave War
ner. was published in Up­
beat. printed by the Escana­
ba Daily Press in the U.P.
Sunday Times.
Elaine's husband. Jim.
wa* diagnosed as a "work a
holie" by the family physi
rian. Hr was 36 at the time,
working as a branch man
agrr and trouble shooter for
13 Kroger stores in the
Grand Rapids area.
Today the couple is a few
rear* older and. by their
estimation, a lot happier.
Together they run a small
grocery store in Champion,
an old mining town in west
rm Marquette County.
'The pressure* were tre
mcndou* hack then," Jim re­
called. "You couldn't make a
m&lt;ivr without worrying
about the stockholders. I'm
I hr major stockholder now."
Owning hi* own More wa*
an idea Jim had toyed with
since hr entered the grocery
hudnexa 20 years ago. work
ing part time after school
cutting meat. The idea gain
momentum when the
mmpanv decided to conaoli
dale it* Grand Rapids offices
with the office* in Detroit.
"I didn't want to raise a
family in Detroit," Jim said.
When Elaine saw a clatsifird advertisement offering
t hr Champion store for sale,
they decided to make their
move.
"The woman was surprisrd when I called." Elaine
explained. "When she asked
if I knew where Champion
was. I asked ner which of the
town'* two Mores was for
the ore on the north
side of lhe road or lhe one on
the south *ide of the road."
She. Jim and their two
children had spent summers
in I hr area since they were
married 10 years ago.
"I love it up here." Jim
•aid. “I don't think I've seen
prettier country anywhere."
That’* quite a compliment
from a man who'* been in 27
muni ric* and 37 states.
• "I wa* a nuclear techni­
cian in thr Navy." he ex­
plained. "After the service I
studied'nuclear physics at
thr University of Alberquer­
que. .William and Mary and
Virginia Teeh. Rut I like
talking to people. That’s way
I didn't rt.iv in thr nuclear
field. I jurt couldn't see
mvself silting in a tab six to
•even hour* at a time with-

nul talking tn anybody."
Elaine, who had been a
career woman since *he was
17. gave up her job as
administrative a«*irtsnt for
the mental health unit in
Barry County.
“That wa* an exciting job
for me because I was in it
fmm the eround up. I got to
in everything fmm nire
staff tn pick out the carpet
ing."
Her plans to continue her
work in Marquette ended
with the move to Champion.
"There’s juM no mom in
mv life for that right now."
she «aid. "We work upwards
of 70 hours a week."
The More is a family
operation for the Jacksons.
Each member adds his or

3rd District Residents

List Inflation Top Problem
Inflation is cited as the
number one issue facing the
country in congressional sur­
vey results being distribut­
ed to households in Michi
gan's Third District this
week by Congressman
Garry Brown.
More than 86 percent of
thr thousands of respon­
dents to lhe Congressman's
legislative questionnaire
listed inflation as one of the
top three problems confront
ing lhe Nation. Second most
frequently mentioned, with
56 percent, was energy.
The newsletter accom­
panying the questionnaire
results provides some fac­
tual insight as to why. For
instance, the Consumer
Price Index shows that what
the consumer paid $100 for
in 1968 now costs 1185. Since
1973. the average cost of a
new home is up 75 percent
and fuel costs for that home
are up 131 percent, no doubt
one reason why energy
ranked second in the survey
as a concern.
Brown contends excessive
spending creates inflation,
and notes the Federal Gov­
ernment is the biggest
spender spending 145.9 mil­
lion an hour!
Brown, a fiscal conser­
vative. supported cuts in the
total budget of over 110

"That worried us." Jim
«aid "But I knew the area
and I knew this store. This
town ha* got the potential
for development. Within the
next 15 years. H’s going to
be one of the fastest growing
area* around. You ean mark

billton in this Congress, and
reductions in appropriation
hills totaling an estimated
I2J billion, which passed.
He even turned back to lhe
Treasury over 367.000 in
unused office account fund,
last year.
Brown also sees inflation
m raising taxes. The reason:
inflation pushes citizens into
higher and higher tax brae
kets. taking away salary in­
creases.
Brown is a co sponsor of
legislation to provide more
than a 90 percent acroM-lheboard tax cut over three
years. When his bill was
rejected by the House this
year, he reluctantly support­
ed the only tax cut avail­
able. the House-passed bill.
Brown also argues that
government regulations are
raising prices. He notes that
Federal regulations raised
the price of a new car in 1978
by 3666 and added 32500 to
the cost of a new home.
Brown offered an amend
rnent which tost on a tie
vote, to reduce the budget
for various regulatory
agencies by 3196.4 million.

legal purchase and consumption of alcoholic
beverage age from the present IB year* to 21
year* of age
Background The Michigan Legislature in
1972 pasted the Age of Majority Statutes
which gave 18 year olds the right* of adult*
including the right to vote and purchase and
consume alcoholic beverage* legally
Bolstered by report* that the rate of auto
accident* related to alcohol use abuse has
increased for person* between the ages of 18
and 20 year* of age and an increase in the
problem* experienced by school* related to
drinking, the Michigan Council of Alcohol
Problems (MICAPl and the Macomb County
P T A formed the "Coalition for 21" which
initiated a petition drive to place the question
of raising the state'* legal drinking age to 21
on the November ballot
In 1978, the Michigan Legislature passed
Public Act 92 and 94 which raises the legal
drinking age to 19. The btBs. which take
effect December 3. 1978. raise the drinking
age for a three year experimental period
Proponents: Arguments for the proposal
ate supported primarily by »tati*tic» related
to driving and the school situation. The
problem*. according to suppliers, that
appears most alarming is the increase in
alcohol rotated auto accident* for 18 and 20
year olds. According to data released in 1977
by the Michigan State Police, fatal accident*
related to alcohol increased 132 percent m
this age group and accidents involving
personal injury and property damage related
to alcohol increased 217 percent between
1972 and 1976 The overall increase in the
number of 18-20 year old drivers in the 5 year
period increased by 9 percent
For drivers 21 and older over the 1972-76
period, their alcohol related fatal crashes
went up 14 percent and personal injury and
property damage accidents caused by
alcohol related problems increased by 11
percent.
The Highway Safety Research Institute
fHSRII of the University of Michigan
analyzed the fatal accidents of drivers
reported as "had been drinking" from 1968
through 1976 on an annual basis and found
that prior to the drinking law change
11968-1972) the 18 to 20 age group were
involved in 26 9% of alcohol related fatalities.
In the 1972-76 year period the 18 to 20 year

group were mviMved in 41 3 percent of fatal
accident*
Another major reason presented by sup
porters of the proposed amendment is the
problem scho&lt;4s have experienced Although
an accurate measurement of how many high
schor l students drink is not available, school
officials repr-rt an increasing number of
discipline problems due to student intoxica­
tion. School administrators report that the
problem of alcohol use is not only a problem
m high schrxM but has trickled down into
junior high as well
Opponents Opposition to the raising of
the dunking age has come from several
groups including the Michigan Licensed
Beverage Association The Distilled Spirits
Council of the U.S. IDISCUSI and the Three
O'Clock Lobby, an organization of young
people who lobby for issues affecting youth
The opponent* suggest that raising the
drmkmg age is discriminatory against young
people Raising the drinking age to 21. it is
argued by opponents, discriminates by class
for a specific right in view that 18 year old*
already have reached the age of majority m
other area* such as voting, purchasing
property. credit, etc Denying the right to
drink to 18 year olds violates equal treat
mem under the law They argue that the
statistic* on youthful accidents related tn
alcohol are not conclusive Data gaps exist in
1971 data, therefore, they cannot be com­
pared with subsequent year* Citing statistics
from the Secretary of State, the opponent*
point out that the accident rate for person*
under 21 are not significanttv different than
for those over 21. In fact, these statistics
indicate that the involvement of alcohol in
accident* among young adults is roughly the
same as mat for older driver* with a range of
10 lo 12 percent per 100 accident* Irr an age
groups
The groups feel that if the present laws
were endorced, the problem of driving and
the drinking in schools would be adequately
addressed especially in view of the passage
of Public Acts 92 and 94, which raised the
drinking age to 19
Commentary: The raising of the legal
drinking age is a very complex issue Roth
jxopenent* arid •■ppi&gt;nent* have utilized the
same statistic* from the Michigan State
Police but have arrived at different conclu­
sions with data supporting each view The
Secretary of State's report which t* often
cited by opponents to the proposed amend
mem did not examine the performance of the
18 to 20 year olds prior to the lowering of the
drinking ago

passes, making 10 tackles,
blocking a punt and recover
ing a fumble. He nearly had
an interception, as well.
But Hansbarger didn't do

by Hansbarger and two

point conversion by Ward.
Early in the second quarter.
Ward scored oo an 11 yard
run. and the conversion at­
tempt failed.
Vestaburg responded
with its only touchdown,
coming on a pas* play in the
second quarter, followed by
a nt: for the two point*.
Hansbarger continued hi*

Mistakes Costly, As
Trojans Lose 21-15
Middleville's mistake*
gave away their game Fri
day evening, a* thr Trojan*
lost 21-15 to Comstoek Park.
Although Comttock Park
had a l wo touchdown lead at
the half. Middleville regain
rd the lead, then lost it in
the last few minute* of thr
game.
Middleville Coach Bob
White never a man lo make
excuse* *aid hi* team did
’’everything we could to give
it away". He *aid hi* di­
fen »e should have broken up
two long pa*t play* which
helped Comstock's final
touchdown drive, and Mid
dlrville penalties crippled
gains made in the first
quarter.
Comttock Park scored in
the fir*t penod with a 61
yard run by Steve Kelhel.
Thr kick for the point was
good. Every time Middle
villr got the ball tn the first
period. While said, the Tro
Jan* had a 15 yard infraction
which nullified a good gain
Comstock Park had p»»
session of the ball the entire
second period, and used it to
make a long, steady drive
leading to thr nrxt tally. The
TD was scored by Scott
Devon on a onr yard quar
trrback sneak, and again thr
kick was good, lor a 14-0 lead
at thr half.
Middleville charged back
in the third period, scoring
its first touchdown on a

22-yard pa&gt;« play from Quar
terhack Kurt Barager to
Rick Bowerman. Dave San
ford ran for the two point
conversion
Again in the final quar
ter. the Trojan* scored on a
four yard run by Doug
Yhema. The point was kick­
ed. and Middleville held a
1514 advantage.
Comttock Park lost the
1&gt;all on down*, then took a
Middleville punt on the CP
loyard line with two
minute* to go Executing
wveral good play*, including
two long pa»*e*. Comstock
marched Ihr length of the
field. A 15 yard penalty
again*: Middleville helped
their cau*e.
Thr final touchdown came
on a nine yard run by Quar
trrback Devon. The kick
wa* made and Comstock
Park won it. 21 15.
"Nobody beat u* -we
beat ourselves.” White
grumbled later.
Comttock Park rolled up
179 yard* ru*hing. compared
to 141 for Middleville Kel
hcl Ird CP with 85 yard*,
while Craig Stout gained 81.
Comttock Park completed
eight out of 12 passes for 124
v ird* in the air. while Mid

During the next lew weeks, yt-u will be
reading tbo comments and opmu-ns of The
Hastings Banner on election issue* end
candidates
We know that m-t everyone will agree with
out view* and our selection* Thai is as it
should be difference* of opinion are •
fixture- pcsaMy an essential one-m the
democratic system.
But any newspaper* worthy of the title ha*
a responsibility to give rts opinion and report
on the realty lough, controversial subject*
Nice" new* •* nr new* at ak
So opeuoci -both your* and our*-bra an
important place in The Banner We welcome
letter* to the editor t-n the widest possible
range of vww* and subject* We print most
of those we receive. homed only by apace m
the newspaper and good taste
As the largest newspaper in the county,
we receive a lot of material on candidate*
and issues far more than we can use But
we do study and save a lot of it for
background, so that we can more tniekpently comment.
We don't claim to know everything, and
we don't deinf to be always nght. In many
cases, there are no "nght" end wrong’’
only shades of opinion depending on your
preferences
We do try to analyze the issue* and
canddate* and judge them from the stand
pewit of what I* best for Barry County We
wdl comment only on races and questions
which we fell are important to Barry County

Delton Grad

We have a special philosophy on endecs
mg candidate* First, there hat to be a race
There's not much point endorsing unoppos­
ed candriate* Second, we have to feel that
we know the candidates or at least their
position* fairly well before we can com­
ment There are many races this year, mostly
for township offices, where we ere probebiy
not quaiifwd to make a recommendation.
Finally, we win endorse a candidate only
when we fed there is a ciear cut preference
If both candidate* mm weH-qualified for the
office, we may write a commentary on thee
qualifications, but not make an endorsement
If two sec nd-reters are running, we won't
try to make the best of a poor choice. We
can only say that perhaps the two pokncai
parties should gwe us better to choose from.
The fmai factor, though, wd be what we
thmk is best for Barry County. We ere more
interested m Barry County than th* rest of
lhe state, and we find that often Barry
County interest* are not the same as the
more urban countws. Bemg a emeu county,
we have to fight hard for our own interests,
and The Banner r* defeated to Barry County

Differences of opeeon are lhe reason we
have a democratic system. If we s&gt; had the
same view*, there would be no need for
eieamne ft is in the spirit of free discussion.

Who Says So?
"In my 12 years with the Barry

many judges and prosecutors in action.
That’s why I have a high regard for
GARY HOLMAN. As prosecutor, Gary
has helped bring a better balance of
justice to Barry County, showing con
cern for the rights of victims, as well as
criminals. Gary Holman will be that kind
of judge. That's why he gets my vote."

What Is My Fair Share?

Tom Olleroe. President
There are 922 Barry County boy a aad girls enrolled and
225 lenders with approximately 40 projects W hile the 4-H
Program is primarily funded by Michigan Slate ( aJverwty
Extension Service, there are some expeaaes that are not
met aad must be provided lor at lhe local level such aa tripe,
tours, awards, lender training. acbolar*hip* and camp
admittance. Much of their money ia earned by tbe girls and
boy. in various service projects. Country and city Ude are
involved and you can help with your Eair Share.

r

campfire: girls, inc.

Here is a suggestion - ONE HOUR'S
PAY PER MONTH!
If your hourly rate is $2.00, your Fair
Share is $24.00; if it is $4.00 per
hour-$48.00; $6.00-$72.00.
Many give more, a few less. What is
my Fair Share? What is the United Way
Program worth? It’s worth much more
than the $101,263 budget. If you can say,

"I have given my Fair Share”, that is all
anyone can expect. Our goal will be met,
and we will succeed in providing services
and meeting our community's needs for
another year.
It's Working...... Thanks to YOU!

The Past Lives at Delton’s Bernard Museum

Notices

Wayland Man

By DORI MILAN
As I walked up tbe path leading to tbe Bernard
Historical Museum, several things came to mind. I
contemplated meeting a man I bad heard so much about.
He is the director of the Gilmore Car Museum well known
by car ent busiest and historians alike. Also being the local
doctor who I might add had his very own hospital which
wa* opened for four and a half years. He delivered over 400
babies into the world. Many of whom live in this area. I for
one was brought by my mother for baby shots those davs
be for- pediatrician*
I had also heard tbe name of Dr Prosper Bernard from
my late I’nclc, Dale Humphrey Uncle Dale would sit by
the hour remmtsctng of his early days in this area. Some 79
years, with a family history going back to 1836 when a
forefather. Rev Slater, translated and wrote the "Indian
Bible" for a I'atawatami tribe who lived in this area.
So with all these things in mind I felt as if I had known
this man for a long time.
I was welcomed into the home by Mrs Bernard whom
the doctor affectionately calls "Missy"
Sitt Jig tn his study with fields!one fireplace and native
limbers making up walls, beams, and floor gave me a sense
of going back to the basics. Collections of Pueblo Indian
pottery adorn the room. The Bernards have taken several
trips tn Aruona. At first a stranger lo the Pueblos, but
with each visit he became one of lhe Pueblo Indians' dear
friends and someone who has won their respect and
admiral K&gt;n
As we chatted of our mutual friendship*. I found a man
of great wisdom with a keen memory of the *maBe*t
detail. He did check with his book for exact dates and
spelling, which I thought was remarkable for a man who
will be 76 October 10th. The book "Years Gone By", he
refers to. was published in 1967. Il is an illustrated account
of tbe life in Prairieville. Barry. Hope and Orangeville
Townships of Barry County in the 19th and early 20th
centuries.
May I add at this time that Fve checked with Joan
Split, our librarian at tbe Riehland Community Library,
and Joan has assured me for those who are interested that
a ropy is on file.
Some of Dr. Bernard's hobbies, other than traveling,
are silver smithing, collecting and polishing stones and
gardening.
We lhen started on our tour of the museum, which is
connected to the Bernard home by an underground tunnel.
Al this point the doctor started to recall how this all had
started. "Well, collecting has always been a hobby, and
between my knowledge of the area and having many
friend* and patients who had heirlooms they wanted to
donate. I decided to turn my interest over to putting these
historical objects pertaining lo our area and county into a
museum."
It wasn't until after he retired that he could begin lhe
necessary paper work to initiate the long awaited museum.
All items donated are registered, cross indexed and filed.
We visited such rooms as the long past "parlor",
complete with marble top table, platform rocker and even a
dulcimer. Another unique room of the past is the sewing
room, where in tbe corner sits the spinning wbetL Abo
fabric coating in those days 9 cents a yard.
At last we came upon the "Indian Bible" I had heard so
much about. There it sat among lhe many Indian artifacts.

making my day quite complete

Iva Gettys, who has taught in the Richland Gull l.ake
school system for 17 of her 19 teaching years, started her
leaching career. Mrs. Gettys has fond memories of her
early teaching days. "Thing* were much different back

rnuth.
Before leaving, the doctor presented me with
postcards and a map pointing out historical points of
interest which designate Indian burial grounds, sites of the
first cabins, mission and the like. So if you're interested in

Teachers ‘Ways’ Apart
We're ways apart" Maple
Valley Superintendent of
Bcbooh Carol Wolff said
Monday morning after only
slight progress was made
but no settlement reached at
the negotiation session held
on Wednesday night. Oct. 5.
with the Maple Valley Edu­
cation Association.
The Maple Valley Board of
Education was scheduled to
meet thl* Munday night to
review what ha* tranipired.
No new negotiation session
had been scheduled. Wolff
said.
Following Wednesday's
session, the Maple Valley
Education Association an­

nounced that the MVEA had
decided to continue working
in good faith.
"The Maple Valley Educa­
tion Association presented
tbetr latest proposal tn the
board negotiator* and are
awaiting the response of the

day. Oct. 9. al 7 pan.

Worden said that a Michi

staff member will meet
Wetlnesday with the leader*
of th* Middleville unit, to
determine what ha* been
done, what the teacher* are
now doing, and what they
plan to do to strengthen
their position. If th» unit
members have a full under
landing of the risks, and
there is enough solidarity
within the unit, the MEA
will sanction further action.

teams. Worden said. De

dule. it might De as long as
two weeks before the media
tor can enter the picture.
Worden said that the
teachers, when negotiations
started, were "hopeful of
settling with conBict".
Earlier, the teachers pre­
sented a three year contract
proposal which would have
taken the T-K teachers from
the bottom of Kent County
school* to about three quar­
ter* of the way down. The
second and third year*, he
said, would have had only
cost of living increases.
Worden said that the
school board is challenging
much of the language which
has been in the contract for
year*, and which the teach­
ers oppose changing.

Worden said of the board

The Saturday session waa
the first one al which there
were no school txiard mem

which also led the teachers
to lielieve that they "prob­
ably hadn't intended to bar

The teacher* are now
preparing a "crisis” pro­
gram. Worden said, which is
designed to muster support
in the community and bring
pressure on the board to
negotiate seriously. Among
the actions being taken are a
door lodoor public relation*

will adhere very strictly to

Having Fun Making Kids’ Toys
B* HI GH FVLLERTON
They design and make wooden toy*, because it * fun.
And what happen* to be fun i* al»o starting to pay off
for Evkin Wood. Inc., a new company in Augusta.
The little toy making company i* le*» than a year old.
but already it i* becoming known throughout Michigan and
the Midwest (or it* high quality, original wooden toy*.
The company i* the brainchild of William Evans of
Augusta and Michael R. Filkin* of Fine Lake. Right now.
Filkin* work* full time at the little plant in Augusta, while
Evans work* part time in addition to hi* regular job.
Evan* ha* been making wooden toy* in his home for
many year*. He teamed with Filkin*, an Englishman who
likes to work with hi* hand*, but who had a 10 year career
as a factory manager before going into their new- business
The two of them design the toy* "right mil of their
head". a» Filkins' wife, Shirley puts it. They design and
make a new toy. then make pattern* from il so that others
can help them make more of them.
The toy* arr all made from seasoned hardwood
lumber mostly cherry, walnut and maple, though oc­
casionally redwood i* used. The board* are laminated so
that every toy ha* »tnpe* from the various kind* of woods
used in it.
Each toy is meticulously hand made by Filkin* and
Evan*, with the help of their wives and three part time
employee*. They Mart with the raw lumber and do every
operation through finishing the toys Some of them are
even sold through the small retail shop they recently
opened in a corner of the plant
The first step and an important one i» laminating the
lumber which goes into the toy*. The wood comes in long
hoard* an inch or «o thick which arc glued and damped
until the ho..d is tougher than the wood itself. Filkin* said.
The now solid chunksol w.iod are ihm ready to be cut
into the rough shape* for the »olid wood Bodie*. They can
then he drilled. «haped. sanded and finished to become
complete toys.
Mort of the toy* are vehicle* of various kind*, with
wheel*. They Mart with *implr car* and pull toy* for
infant*, and go up to sophisticated designs like the road
grader, the low boy truck with a bulldozer on it. and the
car carrier with five little car* on it.
A* the part* arr formed, they are carefully sanded to
take advantage of the hardwoods" smooth surface,
assembled, and then sprayed with three coats of tough
polyurethane finish. The plastic coating is the same one
used on boat*. »o the toy* can take a kX of weathering
when children leave them outdoor*. The glue used in th*.toy* is waterproof
The company'* goal, according to Filkin*, is to make
"The be«t wooden toy* at a • a«onable price." Prices cover
a wide range, according to the size and complexity of the
toys.
I*rievs start at $3.50 for a simple pull toy. and range to
$45.00 for the ear earner with five car* and $53.00 for the
five piece train wt The day we visited the shop, they had
neither of the most expensive toy*, because, as Shirley
Filkin* »aid. they arc sold a* fast ;&gt;* this can be made.
Filkin* says that the plant cm now make 100 to 150
toy* a week, while doing u.tr.e uthei work at the same
lime. The production level depend* largely on what kind of
toy* being made they can ’.urn out simple toys farter than
complex ones.
Because Evkin toy* an work* .4 art a* well a* toys,
manv pcoolc are buying them a* decor; tor item*. To meet
this demand, the company ha* added a little mail truck,
with a channel through the hack, to serve as a desktop mail
ho'rter.The artistic mi nt ha* been lurmaliy recognized. when
the road grader toy won a first prize ribbon iu a trait show
at Lansing this summer
Like all work* of art, each toy is slightly different.
Filkin* point* out The maker - may vary the design
slightly, and the wood pattern is different in every toyBeside* manufacturing the toys, owners Evan* and
Filkins and their families have been out selling them this
year. too. Many weekend* have besrn spent at craft and

tnd thank you Mr. Hoffman
for being so kind to our
Agency with your donation.

sound and their leader is

We also enjoyed dulcimer
music by the "Happy Butter
fly Dulcimers"
We didn't raise the
amount of money we had
hoped to but »r gained
many friends and what is
more valuable than a friend.
In the planning of the
Festival. Mr. Kenney, man
ager of McDonald’s, was
most agreeable to donating
as much orange drink as we
wanted and providing the
dispenser, with the full pro
ceeds of the drinks going
into the "Fund." Mr. Kenney

Dave Roden beck, man­

kind enough to donate lent

very much.
What a pleasure it was
also to work with the Sher

Bill Christie was the most
help. Bill makes all the
arrangements for any funrt
ion held at the fairgrounds
so he was on lop of many
things that we didn't think
of. Thank you Bill for your
donation also.
The Kiwanis food wagon
was set up for business in
the middle of the fair
grounds but when the rain
came it never opened for
businesi. Thank you John

to this Festival as I did and
did a fine Job. On Saturday
morning Marlene and Cheryl
White and Wayne Tolliver
did a lol of the last minute
running around and I thank
them for their lime.
The weather was against
us in this fund rsising event
so 1 am hoping that the
people in the community
start donating the dollars
needed to reach 140.000.00
by December so that we can
relocate the programs of the
Commissxm on Aging. Your
donations arc tax deduct

Apartment Complex Variance

f0 Get Jofcs Jn

Hoping for authorisation
to go ahead with construe
tioa ot a new |1 3 million
60 unit apartment complex,
the A A D Development
Company of Lansing is aak
ing the Hastings Zoning
Hoard of Appeals for a
variance in the Zoning Or­
dinance.
Many residents of the
area are opposed to new
apartment buildings.
The A * D Development
is asking for • variance from
the requirement foe the
main access to the develop
ment not be through a
residential tone. Their plan
is for the main access at the
west end of Benaon Street.
The city's requirement
would be for the main en­
trance to be on the north,
connecting with Woodlawn
Avenue from where the
Country Club Estates are
located.
The II 68 acres of land is
south and west of Country
Club Estates.
The Hanning Commission
rejected the plan, and that is
being appealed
Construction of the main
entrance on Woodland
would require more than 600

feet with a turn around,
costing possibly about
*60.000 al about *100 a foot
The apartment plan is for
56 one bedroom units, and
four two bedroom unit*, in
15 structures
Last April 25 petition*
signed by about 140 rest
dents asked the city to
change the present ronmg
from AO Apartment and
Office Building, back to R 1
One Family Residential Dis
trict.
The petition states that
"We d&lt;&gt; not believe the
addition to more low income
housing, multiple dwelling
or elderly bousing is bene
final " to the area.
"With the recent construe
lion of homes in this area
valued at upwards of *60.000
and the purchasing of lots
with the intentions of build
ing homes equal to the value
of the surrounding home*, it
makes tins typT'id housing
undesirable."
The petition adds that the
building of the proposed hw
income housing would strain
the city budget by the in
creased cost of construe
lion of new street
and
sewers, putting in water and

lighting Said housing would
hr more logically located in
arras where these services
already exist or are more
readily available
"We do understand that
the construction costs of
these new streets, sewers,
water and lighting are paid
for with FHA monies, hut
this is also taxpayers' money
coming from Washington.
Wr are concerned about the
future maintenance rents of
these additional services to
the taxpayers."

For Community Building
By LORRAIN E COOKE
On October 3. and en­
thusiastic group of citizens
of Orangeville Township
gave the board a vote of
confidence in plan* for a new
community building, which
will encompass the use of
the present firebarn.

will be used as a township
hall, with a 50 a 50 pole type
addition attached Mr. Pi)
lax's design includes sliding
doors between both build
ings which could he utilized
for large group meeting*.
Discussion on the disposi­
tion of the present township
hall wa* prompted by Jeff­
rey Howland of Wildwood

far more economical to place
both the hall and fire depart
ment under one roof. Trus
tee Everett Tiller said that
the millage collected the
past two years was designs!
ed for fire protection and he
thought that the building
would be a part of that
effort. Tiller explained that
an addition to the present
fire station would require
cither disposal of the town­
ship hall or setting II back to
the lot at an estimated cost
of 14.000
Super*toor Robert Harper
stated that Bernard Society
or Charlton Park were not
interested in the building
since it is not historical
enough. If it were used, it
would need a new roof and
major repair*.
Upon a vote of citizens
attending the township
board was asked to place the
hall for sale on a bid bases.
Fred Ix-wi*. trustee, said
the township ha* the money
and that nothing could be
saved by waiting any longer
because of tbe rate of in­
Pillar though tbe entire
package could be put to­
gether for about J30.000.
which would include heat
ing. electric, plumbing and
insulation, and be of steel
construction. Hl* company
works lo provide plan*, as
sist in taking bids and break
ing up contract* in several
categories. rather than one
general contract A commit­
tee was formed which will
work with Pillar, lo include
member* of the township
board and James Johnson of
Gun Lake, and Ronald Her

offer was received and ac
copied by the DPW and sent

Atty. Karl Gotting of
lensing, representing the
developer, said that if a
variance wa* needed, it
could be made as a hard
ship on the owner.
He said because another
apartment complex was al
ready constructed with tbe
x—ess to Benson, and as the
area was zoned for apart
ment*. there didn’t seem to
be any question. He also said
the project was a residential
one. and demal could be
discriminatory.
Mayor Ivan Snyder said
he believed the proposed
street in the development
should be dedicated to the
city with all improvement*.
Hr pointed out that a city
street would call for police
protection. Snow on a pri
vale street could provide
problems with fire protec­
tion and ambulance service.
Utilities such as water and
sewer could still go south for
hookups with mains.
1‘roperty owners at the
meeting expressed concern
atout increasing the traffic
in thr residential area, point
ing out that Glenwood is
already being heavily used.

School Voucher Proposal

Big Question for Voters
By DORIS J RICHARDSON
Ccunty E«tenvr&gt;n Duectoi
THE SCHOOL VOUCHER PROPOSAL
PROPOSAL H
The petition
the school voucher
P»&lt; p* sa' a»* known as the school finance
p» t&gt;*ai was conducted by an organize; .-n
catted Citizens for More Sens4Me Financing
ol Educatvn •
Although the men errpham throughout
the petitH n drive was tt&gt;e property tax issue.
"'*&gt; sch«i i voucher prop, sal requires a
decision on three critical policy issues These
three issues a’ - II The use ol educational
vouchers as a system ol financing K 12
education. 2i Whether property taxes should
tie the mainstay ol K 12 educational funds in
Michigan, and 31 Whether public funds
stu ukl tie used m a major way for the
education of private and parochial students
Those three issues are derived from the
proviSM-ns of the proposal
The Proposal The proposal has throe

Back r .md The question of extending
stalo an! t private and parochial schools has
boon with us lor a decade Governor MiUiken
proposed a degree of financial assistance to
non-publc schools as part of hrs educational
package of 1969 The legislature under &lt;ts
Spencer Ryan plan' included such assist
ince in its School Aid Appropriations for
1970 71 In 1970. the Michigan Education
Association successfully spearheaded a con­
stitutional amendment outlawing aid to

Some Evaluative Comments Ties school
v&gt; ucher proposal raises many issues First,
mere
legal implications Can general
revenue funds of the state be used for some
208 000 private and parochial school cWdren
eligible under this proposal’ It is sure to be
challenged m the courts and such challeng­
ers already have what they believe to bo
strong precedent cases. On the other hand,
millions of Gls of World War II and others
that followed received educational vouchers.
These veterans had freedom to attend
colleges and universities of their choice
whether private, public or religious in
affiliation
Second, there are tremendous funding
implications Removing the school operation
funding from the property tax would remove
50 to 80 percent of the property tax bO-the
percentage vanes with school district
The average operating cost per student in
Michigan is about 11200 ennuaBy. The
proposal does not state that the legislature
*haa cover aN these costs However, if the
legislature d-d issue a voucher to each public
school enroWee for 41200 the cost would be
about 42 2 billions of dollars If we added the
208.000 private and parochial students, we
add another 4315 million So roughly we are
talking about 42 6 txlhcn dollars that the
legislature might be asked to fund. Of
course, some contend it will be more since
some districts already expend twice the
41200 figure noted
Where Can It Bo Secured’ The big
revenue raisers for Michigan are: Personal
Income Tax 41 9 billion. Sales and Use Tax
41 6 billion and Single Business Tax 4975
million
One could estimate raising the total 42.5
bdbon by increasing the personal income tax
from the present 4 6% to 9.3%. OR
increase* g the sales and use taxes from 4%
to 92% OR increasing the vngle business
tn from 2 36% to 7 66% or some combina­
tion. It should be noted that the sales and use
tax level is censtitulienaMy set.
Remembering the yield per 1% rate
change is as fellows Personal income tax.
4468 miltion. Sales and Use tax. 4425 million,
and Single Business tax. 4415 million.
There are a number of other questions to
be considered beanies die how and where of
financing There are administrative problems
likely to arise if the proposal is enacted; ttiere
are questions arising from demands on
schools above present capacity and other
schools under utilized, and there are ques­
tions centered around transportation.
A final matter to be settled would be the
drafting of legislation giving a uniform
system for state approval of schools.
Children may received credit for their
vouchers only at state approved schools
In conclusion, most of us can agree with a
recent report on the proposal. "If the
voucher plan wore adopted and upheld by
the courts, the exact form that pubic
education would take, along with the cost of
supporting pubbe education in a new form,
would be determined through a continuing
process of legislative actions and court
decan ns. each affecting the other, that
would take many years "

Open Letter to Mr. Karpin­
ski
We journeyed to Marshall
last Friday night to aee the
Hastings Marshall football
game. We expected to see a
close well played game.
Needless to say. that wasn't
the cate.
Mr. Karpinski, when do
you substitute your second
string? With 7 minutes left
tn the game. Hastings was
behind 25 points! Obviously
the first string offense and
defense were not doing their
yobs.
Therefore the boys who
continually stand on the
sidelines during games, but
who work as hard as the
starters during practice,
should have been given the
opportunity to play the re
mainder of the game.
High school sports are not
only to keep one physically
fit but also to help mold ones
character. But I tear you are
helping to mold a group of
cynics!!

Maple Valley

Wins Delayed
Game, 10-6
The teams were ready,
the fans enthusiastic but the
officials failed to show up for
the Maple Valley-Moatabella
fiM.lball game at Nashville
Friday night.
About 9 o'clock the coach
es agreed to reschedule the
game for 4 p.m. on Satur­
day.
Maple Valley Coach Dan
Watson, after his lions had
posted a 106 victory over
the visitors, stud he believed

the delay hurt both teams.
(letting a team emotion­
ally ready to play on Friday
night is one thing, but to
turn around and do it all
over again the next day ia
something else." Coach Wat­
son said.
However, it didn't bothx-r
his gridders too much.
In the first quarter Satur­
day Ken Hanabargar tossed
a pass to Quentin Ward for
the I Jon touchdown, the
play covering 43 yards.
Exchange student Paul
Baltus from The Nether
land, booted the extra point,
and in the next quarter
lialtus set a new Maple
Valley field goal record by
kicking a 35 yarder.

First period on a 38 y ard run

In all. Maple Valley had

DISTRICT
JUDGE

Who Says So?

This year we all have a lot of
decisions to make at the polls. One
important vote will be for a new District
Judge here in Barry County.

I support GARY HOLMAN for
District Judge, because I believe he will
be able to handle the delicate job of
balancing the scales of justice to achieve
a better balanced justice. Gary has not
only served as our first full-time Prosecu­
tor in Barry County, but has also been in
private practice and has handled many
criminal cases as a defense attorney.

I, Warren L. Arnold, Sr., Candidate for County

tax all of us, they should provide services that benefit all of
us, not a few [special interest groups].
And the Commissioners should make every effort to see
that the tax dollars are well spent and value received.
If the County Board is not going to provide the services
needed, then, the tax monies should be returned to the
people.

One of them will be your choice of a man to
serve as DISTRICT JUDGE.
That job, the weighing of the delicate scales
that measure true justice, BALANCED
JUSTICE, can best be done by a man who has had
experience both as a defense attorney and as a
full-time prosecuting attorney.
Only one candidate has these qualifications,
GARY HOLMAN.
Gary has served as Barry County's first
full-time prosecuting attorney since his election in
1976. Before that, he spent seven years in private
practice. He is a member of the American Bar
Association, State Bar Association, and the
Hastings Rotary Club. He has served as legal
advisor for the Kalamazoo County Sheriffs

never and will never be m the dtftnct
courtroom, and are not qualified to pick a
lodge Then, we are faced by two men who
each seem to have pood qualrfiratinns for
the job But nevertheless, a choice must be
made
Aher considering the matter from many
pnmt* of view, we conclude that the county
would be best served by electing John F
Huntley es District Judge
Two year* ago. in the Circuit Court race.
luAciai temperament'' was an issue In our
contacts With both Huntley and Prosecutor
G«ry Holman, we have been impressed that
both men probably have the right personalty
and character to preside over a courtroom.
So we must look a bit farther to find out
what advantage* one might Have over the
other.
Huntley seem* to have the edge «
experience He ha* been m private practice *t
Hasting* for mote than a decade, handling all
manner of case*. Holman has been in private
practice for a few years, and also spent
several years as an advisor to the Kalamaroo
County Sheriff » Department He hss been
pr-*ecutor just two years
So what I* best tor Barry County’
If Huntley wins, we will have one lex*
attorney tn prrvate practice here His regular
clients may have to look elsewhere, but the
general public will notice little effect If
Holman wm*. it seem* to us that he will leave
a job he ha* not yet fintsbed that of
founding the first full time prosecuti • *
office in Barry County.
If Holman had served a couple full term* as
prosecutor, we might feel differently. But in
two years, he can't have done much more
than get hi* feet wet as prosecutor If he ha*
mastered the prosecutor’s job in two years,
then it is an mcredibN easy job If he has not.
then the Barry County taxpayers have not
yet gotten their money's worth.
No. Im's keep a competent prosecutor in
hi* job tor at least a full term -preferably
two- before mi&gt;ving him up In the next
decade "ne or two Circuit Court judgeships
should open up Either Huntley or Holman
will be in a position to run The county, for
now. could be better served by retaining
Holman as prosecutor and electing Huntley
tn District Court.
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS- ln the commrsSKmer*' races, we only see two where we
fed we can make intettgent endorsements.
In both cases, experience ha* to be the
deciding factor.
In ttie Eighth County Commissioner*
Distrirt Hope Townpup and Barry Town­
ship Preonct f 2-OrviBe Hammond must be
our choice. Ed Darnels might be okay, but
we re not aware of any particular expertise
he brings to the job.
OrviHe is a known quantity Sure, he’s very
conservative, and we don’t always agree
with his opinion. But he has his principles,
and he'll tell you straight. There are going to
be a lot of new faces on the county
commission come 1978. We may need a few
"old hands" Mre OrviBe to maintain some
continuity.
In the Second District. Incumbent Bob
Bender is another man we'd like to see
returned to the courthouse Bob is young -as
ci-mmrssn-ner* go-but he's inteBqjeni and
progressnre. «lromcaBy. he's often on the
oppostte side of the vote from OnnBe
Hammond. But he knows what he's doing,
and we suspect some of those new
commissioners are going to look to him for
leadership in the next couple of years
Some of the unopposed enmmissroner
candidate* are especially worthy of mention,
though they don't need our endorsement.
Ken Radant knows county government,
though ho operate* with litile fanfare.

done with no increased burden on local

John F. Huntley
Is An Experienced Choice
For District Judge

The most important attribute of any
lodge is obiectivity
»

Vote For Experience
Now in his 14lh year as a practicing
attorney. John F Huntley has repre­
sented clients in hundreds of civil and
criminal cases at every state level, from
District to Supreme Court.
He has handled cases which range
from the simple formality to the heavily
contested, has acted as Special
Prosecuting Attorney on Court appoint
ment. as well as defense attorney.
Huntley has dealt with people on every
social and economic level, which has
helped him understand and respect
many people with differing points of
view. "Every aspect of the iegai-|udicial
system, says Huntley, "is fundamentally
human, and all of us. including judges,
must remember it. I believe I can ”
In the public service. Huntley acted as
an attorney for the Barry County Depart­
ment ol Social Services and shaped a
program that, due to its success, became
a Department of Health. Education and
Welfare model lor similar programs
nationwide.

Vote For Fairness
And Objectivity

In Huntle/vown words

"The most laudable objective of the
law is the lending of certainty,
predictability, and fairness to the
complex endeavors of man It should
attempt no more than this, except in
times of extraordinary need
"As for (he judicial system it must
share the same objective since it is for
most people, the essence of what law is
all about. Even the criminal aspects of the
legal-judicial system are. ideal ly directed
to lending certainty, predictability and
fairness to life."

This l believe I can do I certainly want to
do so.

The District Court is the first court
with which the normal citizen has any
contact While the court must often deal
very firmly with those before if. those
citizens should always leave with the
feeling that, firm or no. it was fair
and proper
Remembering that the court belongs
to all of us it must be equally available
to all of us whether the cause be large
or small

Vote For Understanding

Huntley was brought up with a pro­
found belief m and respect for the law
His father J Franklin Huntley was Barry
Count* Prosecuting Attorney for 15
years

John F. Huntley has clear ideas about
the role of a District Judge
many things happen so fast that
we often fait to understand their signifi­
cance. However, no one should leave the
courtroom with that feeling The court
room, after all. belongs to all of us
whether accuser or accused, whether
Plaintiff or Defendant. The courts must
not only deal fairly with people, but try to
convey a filling of fairness as well

Married father of two John F
Huntley is an experienced choice lor
District Judge A University of Michigan
Law school graduate admitted to the
Bar in 1965. Huntley has the sound
legal education needed to full HI the
District Court obligations He has the
courtroom experience He has an
abiding respect tor the law. and a
deep understanding ol the people
and the concerns of Barry County

Banner Recommendations
On Ballot Proposals
In tNe an "off year election. Michigan
voters will be faced by 1 1 ballot propositions,
acme of which may change the character of
the tai structure in Michigan It is vital that
voters study those issues carefully, and be
prepared to vote on them on a clam, rational
manner.
To this end. The Hastings Banner is
making its recommendations on several of
tt&gt;e most important ballot issues, and we win
briefly discuss the reasons
The most important questions are un
doubtrdly the three which directly affect
your taies Along the way, they also can
profoundly affect the education system in
the state
The three are Proposal E. the Headlee
Amendment. Proposal H, the school vouchor
plan, and Proposal J. the Tisch Amendment.
Very briefly, the Headlee Amendment
would restrict aM state taies and revenues
(which includes local ones I tn the current
proportion &lt;4 state personal income. and
prevents the slate from mandating new local
programs or shifting ofd ones to local
government without also peytng the coots
The voucher plan has two mam planks
One would allow parents to send thee
children to any echmi. with the state a«d
fodnwmg via a "voucher" for each cMd The
second port is the ekmmatmn of local
property taies for education, and requmng
the state tn replace it with tsies from the
state level
The Tech Amendment would cut property
tai assessments in half, thus effectively
ba. It would a&gt;ow the state to raise the stats
income tai by 1 percent, and permit a 1
percent local mcnme tai
Wo urge a Yoe vote on the Heedtoe
Amendment and school voucher plan, and a
No on Tech.
Headee. despite some of the atormet
oppoertion. makes a lot of sones The
pokuoans m Lansing and acmes ths
country -have been ignoring the grourxtowei
of opmson agamst rismg tasee in recent
years Had they been listening. Headtoe and
California's Proposition 13 would not have
been nireossry But government has gotten
out of control, and only a direct vote of the
people can control it now
h's interesting that most of the state's
politicians have come out for Heedtoe- even
some of the very ones who have fostered the
kmd of spending it is dimgned to stop What
look them so long to read public opinion
correctly?
The voucher plan is a difficult one It is
nothing less than a revolutionary change in
education
Il
is time for a revolution in education.
Public education |ust isn't doing the job
Despite decreasing pupil counts, costs
continue to go up. The all powerful Michigan
Educatkm Aur-ciation and its local effikates
era getting a death grip on the schools al this
state The voucher plan may be the only way
to break iNs hold
The opponents of the voucher .-'an are
raising all kinds of phony issues agamst it.
One of the most insidious is the term
"parochaid" This is not parochaid -it is
freedom of choice. And It is too long in
coming
Admittedly. the voucher plan wdi cost
more money For generations. about 10
percent of parents have paid twice for their
kids' education once through taies and
again through tuition in private or parochial
schools. The voucher plan wfl see that they
only pay once. unless they went superior
schools for thee chidren and are wWmg to

The greatest argument for the voucher
plan ia competition We have anti trust laws
to protect the pubbc agamst big buameee
gettmg too powerful But our system now
sanctions the very-powerful education
monopoly. The voucher plan writ introduce
the idea of competition for eiceflenca mto
education, and the schools which do the beet
job wto prosper. Poor schools we don't need.
Many educators have been saying qwerty
for years that Michigan must shift more of
the education burden away from property
taies to more broadly based taies The
proposal does that by efemmatmg local
school property taies
In the interests of faenees and eiceilence

voucher plan is needed now. Vote Yee

Delta Kappa

Voice of the People
To the Editor;
Should Rutland Township
become a Charter Town
ship? This question appears
on the ballot on November 7.
It has been buried among
numerous state proposals. It
is a stop that should not be
taken lightly but. if al all.
only after careful consider*
tion of all the consequences
The proposal appear* on
the ballot a* the result of a
resolution adopted by the
Rutland Township Hoard
back in June. So far as I ran
ascertain there have been no
publie hearings, published
discussion, or widespread
information made public.
Normally Charter Town
ship organisation is adopted
by townships with large
populations who wish to
operate in a manner similar
to a City. Town, or Village
Rutland has a population of
approsimately 2,300 whirh.
e.cept for a concentration in
one area, is spread widely
over the Township. At the
present lime the Township
can get only about 1 mill of
the properly las. Under a
Charter, it could assess 5
mills. Charter Township*
can approve bonding for
-uch activities as a Fire
Department, a Police De
partment. a solid waste com
.... Msdt ns H
done by the Township Of
ficials without direct ap
proval of the voters. Most
Townships adopting Chart
ers find themselves with
grratlyf expanded "ser
vices- and considerably in
creased taxes.
Already Rutland citizens
have lost their privilege to
determine the salaries of the
Township officers. These art­
set by a Salary Board ap
pointed and approved by the
Township Hoard Under a
Charter, the voter will have
even less direct control of
the Town*Uin expenditure*.
I believe there has been
too little discussion, loo little
explanation, loo little con
siderat ion of the ronsequen
cr* given to this important
and potentially expensive
step. Rutland Townsnip vol
ers have the right to decide
but should do m&gt; only after
careful study. If it is a goixi
stop, it should stand thr
liqht of complete open
examination. Oner a Charter
is adopted, then- ia no
turning hack. Rutland Town
ship has a budgeted income
■ ■I some l12M.no Already
salaries and expenses of
Township Officer* is budget
cd at $2M.&lt;MW. Trustee fees
and Building Inspector add
approximately SN.000 more
t'nder the Charter this
could increase very much
more. Should we tie conern
trating on cutting taxes and
cutting expenditure* rather
than increasing them. Some
1.200 voter* of Rutland
Township will decide thi*
next Tuesday. Until there is
much more information on
the consequence* of adopt
mg the Charter. I believe
the wise decision is to vote
NO.
This is only one of my
choices and issue* on the
ballot thi* year All are
important to you. but only
your VOTE will be counted.

I have noticed several ad*
in the Banner in the past few
week*, appropriately edged
in black, and paid for by the
Michigan Committee for the

ever that may mean. The ad

is headed “If you Don't

I qualify. I remember
Prohibition. and I don't rem

about it. I wonder if the
writer of this ad remembers
it. If they do they should be
old enough and had caper

than this. "Ask about boot
leggers. bathtub gin. and a
generation of American*
who learned disrespect for
the law."
I guess there are bool
legger*. I never saw one but
1 heard about them in the
Kentucky hilis.etr. Well, we
have bootlegger* today. I
am told, in 1978. I never saw
or knew of gin in the bathtub
but I've heard of booze in
just about every other kind
of container, a* late as 1978.
And I don't remember that
that generation of American
learned disrespect for the
law. I don't believe any
generation ever lived that
showed as little respect for
the law a* the one we art­
living in now I liked the
Prohibition year* and was
sorry for thr Repeal.
Every law in the land I*
there to Prohibit. We have a
law against killing fellow
human beings but our news
paper* are filled with ar
count* of murder*, one
against stealing but it is
broken many lime* every
day; a law •riling a 55 MPII
speed limit, yet you can't
drive ten mile* today at that
legal limit without being
passed time and again by
someone who is knowingly
breaking the law; and I
cull ,,u a. and uc These
law* are put on the book* for
the protection of the public.
And that is why this l*ro
posal D should receive an
overwhelming Ye* vote.
My hat is off to Daisy
Johnson for her fine l-rlter

Ta tbe Editor
Next Tuesday you will
have an opport unity to vote
on some of the most import
ant issue* that have ever
faced Michigan
After studying the three
proposal* involving your
taxes we feel thr Hradlrr
Amendment is by far thr
strongest and will give some
of the power of governing
back to thr people of Michi
gan.
Thr Michigan Educational
Association ha* come out
against all three proposals
but have not offered a good
alternative to thr situation.
Are we to gather from this
that thing* will remain a*
they are: Ever increasing
taxes, unlimited wasteful
spending, increased assess
menu un our projiertlcs.
continued growth of govern
ment. which i* resulting in
less voter control.
laist spring wh"i you
were asked to support this
petition, our Hastings Edu
cational *ystrm rendered
many signature*. Now they
are lu-ing told by the MEA
how they should vote. We
should not have a con glome
rate deciding our future.
With this constitutional
amendment. the day of un
restrained taxation could lxa thing of the past Thr
people will haw maximum
control over the level* of
taxation which they must
pay at local and state level*.
If you agree or disagree,
get out and exercise your
right to vote.

ever be far enough ahead or
far enough behind where the

Maybe the boys were being

Well. Hasting* ha* had a

Mr*. Flory stated she waa
"in on II from the begin
ning." I have worked at the
Center for over three year*
and understand that the
Barry County Volunteer*
were in the building "rent
free" for a short time before
I came and were asked to
find other quarter* because
of lack of cooperation with
the C.A.C. board in office at
that time. In the three year*
plus that ! have been here
neither Mrs. Flory or Mr*.
Stanton spent any time in
the building, at meetings or
working on any project* jet
Mr*. Flory would lead you to
believe she ha* been very
active all of these year*.
For the people that didn't
understand what "Bureau
critic Machine” Mr*. Flory
wax referring to in her
article, it wa* us the Barry
County Commission on Ag
ing. We have facts and
figure* to back up the ser­
vice we have provided for
the Senior* and Handicap
ped people of Barry County.
These fact* don't tell ol
the love, caring and sharing
that is part of each working
day for each member of our
staff, whether they be in the
office, drivers, housekeeping
people, nutrition people,
home care aides. Vial of Life
People or our friend* that
volunteer their service* at
the C.O.A. We care about
people and the people know
we care. Our staff earne*
their earing beyond 5:00
p.m. They check on people
evening* and weekend* to
see how they are getting
alongnot because that it
part of their job description
but because they care.
Since Mrs. Flory and Mr*.

Hastings

Stanton have become C.A.C.
Board member*, the Com­
mission on Aging ha* been
asked to leave the C.A.C.
building. Mr*. Flory would
have yea believe the i*
against us because we ar* a
"Bureaucratic Machine” and
"have p!u«h quarter* to
openle from.". When the
Commission on Aging leave*
the building would anyong
like to guess whose office
will be in the** plush quart
era? They have already had
their mail directed to 120 N.
Michigan and their office
isn't even here yet.
We have no way of know­
ing what the Barry County
Volunteer* do how many
people they serve how often
and whether it i* free of
charge or not The Barry
County Volunteer* don't
have to report to anyone.
I'm sure the Barry County
Volunteer* have done some
good things for people and
that there are some wonder
ful ladies who also care,
working for that organisat­
ion. Its too ' ad that two
people can make a worth
while organization *o unpal
Hable to so many people.
In closing. I would like to
say that no matter how
many mean things you do to
make our staff uncomfort
able. (.Tara Stanton. I still
return your smile and no
matter how many wordy
letters you write against the

To the many, many people who worked so hard on
my campaign. The campaign was long, hard and well
fought, and it would not have been possible without so
much friendly supplort.

While we lost the election, I made many new
friends, and the value of that cannot be evaluated in
terms of "won or lost."

Finally a word of recognition to
the American farmer,

r

One prominent leader puts it this way
Today s farmer relies upon the skills and abilities of a vast
number of specialists to assist him in his job of providing food and fiber for the nation. He could not
operate for one week if these services were not available. Likewise, the businesses which serve ag­
riculture could not exist without the farmer "
This is what Farm-City activities are all about The purpose is to promote a widespread understand­
ing of the interdependence of the two groups and to narrow the gap of understanding that some­
times divides the rural and urban segments of our population.

which included the dismantl

crete in front.
A special meeting was
scheduled Monday. Nov. 13.
at 7:30 p.m. to be held at the
Orangeville Fire Barn to
discuss Mr. Warners bid.
A request by Fire Chief
Hermenitt to thr township
board, for a base radio to be
installed in his home, with
funds secure with matching
DNR grant money, was den
ied by the board.
Mrs. Harper gave a brief
summary of transactions of
an Oct. 17th Board of Ap
peals meeting as it applied
to Orangeville Township.
She said there was a permit
for a special use and zoning
permit grant by the Barry
County Zoning Commission
to some Mexicans who were
buying 85 acres for a eamp­
site.
She reported that one
man told the board they had
several churches in Mich
igan and Chicago, and she
expressed concern over the
special use permit along
with the fact that the 85
acres will be given a non tax
status. (In the November 9
issue of The Hastings Ban
ner. it was reported that the
Apostolic Church of God, in
Orange"tl)e. has purchased
85 seres which included the
airport site on March Road.
It is to be used for church
activities, and according to
David Garcia, will be offered
for community and other
denominations activities al­
so.)
There was also discussion
on the Gun Lake Sewer
Project, with a new map
presented for viewing,
which showed that while
Winchester Drive apparent­
ly is still on the project
route, over which there has
been some discord, and it
now appears that a portion
on Marsh Road that was
once omitted, will include
Cutshaw's Campgrounds.
Bills presented for pay­
ment by Orangeville Town­
ship Treasurer Lee Cook,
included all salaries, includ­
ing a 11,500 assessment fee

voiced objections to the fact
that it was reported that
Robert Harper had gone to
see Jack Warner of Span
master before they submit
led their bid. He said that
both he and John Piller
should iKith have an addit
tonal week, out of fairness to
the citizens of the township
who voted Oct. 3. on the new
building.
Ron Hermenitt was asked
what objections he had to
the Piller and Ar Mar de­
signs, which was with offset.
The fire chief was of the
opinion that the offset would
create a place for snow to
build up. during a severe
storm when wind was blow
ing. however. Spanmasters
plans include a metal roof
which will slope over all
three fire house doors,
which may cause severe
problems also. It appeared
to some visitors present,
that the offset would be less
hazardous during such times
.if bad weather.
No new special meetings
have been scheduled, pend
ing a decision from the
township attorney.

Proposal Would Double

State Snowmobile Trails
funding for Michigan’s snowmobile trail system
maintained by the Scale Department of Natural Rnourcr*
may be doubled if a bill now being considered by the state
la-gidature becomes law. according to Automobile Club of

taxes paid on gasoline to run machines.- stated Joseph
Ratkr. Auto Club touring manager.
Senate Bill 185 now before the State House of
Representatives mandates that three tenth* of one percent
of all state gasoline taxes be used for the trail program A
DNR official said the bill has a good chance for passage
“DNR officials say that the trail program could receive
11.2 million in the first full year if the two cent per gallon
stale gasoline tax hike take* effect as scheduled Jan. 1 and

AWARD" is indeed n well

By HUGH FULLERTON
Banner Publisher
Good news--Herb Moyer say* he plan* to
resume the popular high school musical
production* next year
Herb was thoughtful enough to call us a
few day* ago. to straighten out what he
though were a couple misconceptions in our
recent edn.-nai concerning support of high
school activnies
Fest, he made careful note that he ha*
been offered aduh assistance m th* past for
his high school productions and a couple
tunes he has accepted it Generally, however,
he feels more comfortable supervising the
entire production himself, and that'* why it
has been a "one man show"
The other one wet a possible misunder­
standing he thought might develop on why
there is to be no musical this year Herb says
he has eni'ugh good male smg*r» m ms choir
this year, but that most of them nave other
commitments- rm stfy fobs after school to
prevent them from taking load roles He
doesn t feel that he lack* support for h&gt;s
program from the school artr■•'iistraimn. and
it just happens to be a year in which his vocal
talent is otherwise engaged
Anyway. Herb assured us that he does
intend to stage a production next year, and
that is certainty good news for music and
theater lover* tn Hastings And especially
good news for student* There can be a lot of
benefits for the cast member*

Meanwhile. however The Banner is
getting a tremendous amount of favorable
support on tbe gist of that editorial which
was that many olivet sctiool activities
deserve the kind of financial and moral
support which athletics girt.
We liave had literally dozens of phone calls
and personal comment* telling us. ' you hit
the nau on the heed " Wf have yet tn hear

rtrectly from anyone wtv disagree* Could n
be that the school board and administra*. n
have been underestimating the cnmmunrt v ’
Especially interesting are several per pie
*&lt; m* who don t want tn even give their
names -who wort for the school system and
say povately. "right on" And one well ed
uca-ed parent whose teenage chan •* heuv4y
involved &lt;i sports. who sees the need for
other interests u* we*
We understand we can expect x-me
letter* tn the edrtor on the subject ** w&lt;We did lose a couple subscribers thi*
week, though. Two people who were
offended by something they saw m Tn*
Banner last month.
Apparently they thought we should play
censor, *o they don't have to look at
something they d&lt;sagiee with, and therefore
fnd offensive
They misunderstand the job of a news
paper We try to "te« it like
»
n -t
withhold or cover up news ,• ~:--m*t*
rpmaon And we censor out only that wt -ch
is libetous or obscene. A free pres* helped
create American democracy. A weak pres*
can lead to it* demine

We can expect our newsstand sales to g
up by two. with those two off He
subscription list I have found that p« pi*
wtv ostentatiously announce that they are
canceling thee subscriptions u*u*ey bui rt
anonyrrv-usly on the newsstands •• they
wen t have to admit they read it They st*
need to know what's gomg on. and w* at th*
newspaper is saying

Close Landfill in

Barry County to Open Group Home

ROBERT NIDA, dir.&lt;tor
of Barry Cwuasty Juvenile
Canrt Service*. tlkrit ever

Approximately a year and
half ago the Harry County
Board of Commissioners ap
proved a remodeling project
for a Counly owned house at
532 E. Mill Street to be used
by the Juvenile Court for a
group home for six children
who arc made wards of the
Juvenile Court.
The home is near complet­
ion and will become occupied
about the beginning of the
year when licensing has
been completed by the
Bute.
According to Robert Nida,
director of Juvenile Court
Services, the County has
had to spend a groat deal of
money, at the rote of 150 to
$70 per day per child, in
placing children outside of
the county in group homes
or residential facilities.
The results have not been
entirely satisfactory because
emphasis has been placed
only on the child in those
programs.
For approximately $15
per day per child, the Barry
County Juvenile Court will
place six young men. bet­
ween the ages of 13 to 17.
into the new group home
with corrective emphasis
not only on the child, but
also upon his family, school,
and the community.
The group home will be
staffed with a set of house
parents, relief help, and a
caseworker, and will provide
for a structured program for
its clients.
. Nida cootinuee. "We ate
nU'creating a Boy's Train­
ing School in the community,
because children will still be
placed outside of the county
where the protection of the
publie requires it. We feel
we can create a safe, correct
ive and successful placement
for our children for a much
more reasonable cost to the

Barry Residents May

Be Snowbound With
‘No Overtime’ Policy
Continued inflation in the
cost of road materials and
equipment without a eorres
ponding increase in funds
has resulted in the Barry
County Road Commission
eliminating overtime for its
employe*', an action that
could result in more hazard
ous driving conditions dur­
ing the winter months.
Road Commission mem
bers are urging Barry re­
sidents to maintain ample
supplies of fuel, food and
medicine no that they will be
able to comfortably endure a
few days of being snow
bound.
Under the new policy, the
Hoad Commission urges that
all medical emergencies be
called into the family phy
sician or Pennock Hospital
emergency room which will
determine if the emer­
gencies require the special
attention of a snowplow
truck.
The Road Commission will

respond only to medical
emergencies approved by
hospital emergency person
nel. Nothing else will be
considered an emergency
except fires.
"The
adoption of this
policy wui result in more
hazardous driving conditions
throughout the county and
there may be occasions
where residents will be
snowed in tor a few days or
over the weekend." the an
nouncement staled. "The
Road Commission regrets
being forced to make this
decision and will make every
effort to provide the best
service possible within reg­
ular weekday working
hours."
Engineer Manager Jack
Kineman said thia policy was
not the result of the millage
turndown al the polls. That
money would have gone Into
road improvement, not
maintenance.

that they only assume con

Most dairymen have
heard of prussic arid poison
ing from sudangraaa or sor­
ghum. However, they are
frequently confused about
what causes the poisoning
and how to prevent it. This
problem is of special concern
this time of year w'.mi
sudangrass and sorghum are
making rrgrowth after cut
ting, face frosting or have
been frost rd for the first
lime.
Sudangrass. forage sorgham. and sorghumsudan
hybrids al) produce a com
pound called dhurrin. Cattle
and sheep convert this
material to prexaic acid ur
hydrogen cyanide in their
rumina. If enough is pre­
sent. it can kill the animal.
Keeping dhurrin levels low
by usinig proper crop man
agement practices will pre­
vent poisoning problems.
The stage of maturity and
plant species both affect the
level of dhurrin in plant
tissue. Forage sorghum is
highest followed by aorghum sudan hybrids and
sudangrass with the least
dhurrin. Young plant tissue
also has higher levels.
Sudangrass should not be
graced or green chopped
until it isover 15 inches. The
same heights apply to re­
growth. Dhurrin ia produced
only in actively growing
tissue. So as the plants get
larger and older, the per
rentage of dhurrin content
becomes quite tow.

(EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY)
Continued Inflation in the
cost of road materials and equip­
ment without a corresponding
increase in funds has forced the
Road Commission to adopt a
policy of "No Overtime".
The Road Commtoeion urges
that all medical emergencies be
called into the family physician or
Pennock Hospital Emergency
Room which will determine if
they require the special attention
of a snowplow truck. The Road
Commission will respond only to
medical emergencies approved
by the hospital emergency
personnel. Nothing etoe win be
considered an emergency except
fires.

The adoption of this policy
will result in more hazardous
driving conditions throughout the
County and there may be occas­
ions where residents will be
snowed in for a few days or over
the weekend. The Road Com­
mission regrets being forced to
make this decision and will make
every effort to provide the best
service possible within regular
weekday working hours.
To cope with these situat­
ions the Road Commission urges
that everyone drive as conditions
warrant and have ample supplies
of fuel, food and medicine so they
can comfortably endure a few
days of being snow bound.

Barry County Hoad Commission
Wintar Maintonanco Policy
(EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY)
Continued inflation in the
cost of road materials and equip­
ment without a corresponding
increase in funds has forced the
Road Commission to adopt a
policy of "No Overtime".
The Road Commission urges
that all medical emergencies be
called into the family physician or
Pennock Hospital Emergency
Room which will determine if
they require the special attention
of a snowplow truck. The Road
Commission will respond only to
medical emergencies approved
by the hospital smergency
personnel. Nothing else will be
considered tn emergency except
fires.

The adoption of this policy
will result in more hazardous
driving conditions throughout the
County and there may be occas­
ions where residents will be
snowed in for a few days or over
the weekend. The Road Com­
mission regrets being forced to
make this decision and will make
every effort to provide the best
service possible within regular
weekday working hours.
To cope with these situat­
ions the Road Commission urges
that everyone drive as conditions
warrant and have ample supplies
of fuel, food and medicine so they
can comfortably endure a few
days of being snow bound.

National program acreage
tNPA» represents the num
ber of acres of a crop needed
to meet estimated demand
and assure desirable carry­
over level* The allocation
factor is the NPA for the
crop divided by the harvest
ed acreage.
The deficiency payment
rate is calculated on the

Barley' For b^h wheat and
barley, this live month per
iod is June through October
Since the average market
price lor both crops was
higher than their loan rales,
these figures will be used to
compute payments. Thus,
for wheat, the $3JW pner
received is subtracted from
the target price of $3 40 to

arrive al the payment rate
of 52 cents.
Eligible producers can
compute their estimated
payments by multiplying

For example, the defie
lency payment formula for a
wheat producer planting 100
acres and program payment
yield of 30 bushel* per acre
would be 100'1X00 x 30 x 52

Rutland Township
officials circulated petitions
and filed them with about
170 names on June ZU to
block action by the city of
Heating* to annex any port­
ion of the township.
Since that lime Hastings
ha* annexed a 40 acre site
between M-37 and M-43 and
Green Street, west of Cook
Road, proposed a* a site for
a shopping center, and al»o
annexed another 180 acres
of vacant land lhe city
owned adjacent to the form
er municipal landfill.
Actually, the township
wants no part to be annexed
to lhe city, and is contesting
these unilalrai annexations.
Rutland Supervisor For
csl Foley at Tuesday's
hearing declared that no
section of the township
should be annexed without a
vote of the people
State Boundary Commie
sion members al the hearing
were Chairman David Cal­
houn of Hubbard Lake, who

mood Hinckley. With the

commission were James
Hyde, lhe executive secret
ary. and Robert Terry, ana­
lysis.
The petition Filed with lhe
rommiiuon request* the an

acres.
The proposal to construct
a $3 million shopping center
on the west city limits
"triggered" the petition*.
Al the close of the formal
hearing Tuesday night.
Chairman Calhoun asked
these in lhe audience which
ones had signed the petition.
About five hand* were
raised. Then he asked bow
many that signed the peith
ion actually wanted to be
part of lhe rity, not one
person indicated a desire to
be part of lhe city.
Chairman Calhoun then
asked if anyone wanted an
nexation to the city. Again,
not one hand went us.
Representing Hastings at
the hearing, and in thv
procedures, k Atty. Neal
Stanton of Grand Haven
Representing
Rutland
Township is Atty. Richarl

Everyone testifying at the
hearing was placed under

At the outset Atty. Lang
announced that lhe annexal

to block lhe city from any
annexation.
Foley who has been Rut
land's supervisor for about
18 years, reviewed the
township's zoning and other
feature* pointing out the

about SI4.500.000 with a
population of about 2,354.
Foley said township re­
sident* have many service*,

lection, use of the Hastings
library , cemetery lots and
free landfill service.
He later explained that
while the township realizes
only 154 in current property
taxes on the property owned
by Milliard Lawrence and
Roman Feldpausch, lhe fut
urr developments would
mean a great deal.

Child. IYC gives the nation*
of lhe world a special op
portunily for fresh focus on
lhe need* and rights of
children everywhere.
To implement the ideals of
IYC. national commissions
have been created. Each
commission will set its own
definition of “child", deter­
mine IYC objectives, and
plan and coordinate govern­
mental and nongovernment
al activities according to
national needs and priori!

Jean Childs Young, an
educator and wife of UN
Ambassador Andrew
Young, has been appointed
chairwoman of the US Com
mission. She lists 'hree
areas on which lhe US IYC
Commission will focus. First,
after examining lhe situat­
ion of children in lhe US,
program*, services, and leg
•station will be advocated lo
remedy the problems. Sec
ond. an International per­
spective will be added.
TTiird. attention will be de
voted to the celebration of
"childhood in all ita incred­

ible beauty."
Persons interested in
Criicipaiing in IYC or in
ving further information

Contrary to what a lot of

fects everyone, even the

mission, not just yourself.
Their operating money
just hasn't increased to keep
up. I know they have cut
corner* to try and do the
best that they can. You
never know they might,
with a little luck, be able to
rope with a rough storm on a
weekend. Their money is
from gas taxes which has

bven the same amount for
many years. Have you
bought some salt lately?

Your property taxes damn

What the county gets goes
to make the Dog Pound an
attractive place. That makes
the Humane Society happy.
Keep all the roofs heated
and the anew removed from
all the acquired parcel* for
County use. Pay salaries,
and they will also find it
damn rough lo lay off CETA
workers when money runs
out. So most will be worked
in somewhere. The Sheriff
Department doesn't have
enough coverage lo take
care of two accidents at the
same lime in the county. On
a happier note though. If you
think your taxes are high,
just let one of your local
wreckers haul you car in,
storage and all, from day
one.
I still like quote from
retiring commissioner. "1
hope I have added a few

folks Is just more expense.
Another I never forgot. I
asked if a person was

eties of Christinas ever­
greens. says AFI But. fire
or six account for almost
three-quarters of the com­
mercially-raised species
Perennial favorites are:
Balsam fir (fyagrant. stays
fresh longer); Douglas fir
(elegant, with ornamental
needlesi, BroUhpine (full
branches, clustering nee­
dles); red pine 'graceful
branches with turned-up
tips): and blue spruce
&gt;symmetric|l,.*ith silver'blue eolorl. *
Crown on Term.
The trees are grown on
„ome 450,000 acres of tree
farms In almost every
state. It takes about six to

12 years to raise a Christmat tree, and in f Lhat time
a lot of work goei i into the
grooming process
Foresters work almost
like cosmeticians to cor­
rect esthetic faults. They
may brace the tree trunk
to eliminate kinks, shear
branches to prevent un­
even development, and
prune them to encourage
thicker growth. The trees
arc alto assured lust the
right amount of sunlight
and moisture, and protect­
ed against insects, disease,
frost or unseasonable
warmth.

StfSrMhm. on rare
AU this care is calculated
to bring an attractive
Christmas tree to market,
if you want to keep it that
way through the holidays,
AFI offers these suggeslions:

Looking for small gifts
for slocking stutters? Here
arc some ideas to start
your thinking.
For lhe baby - a rattle,
a cloth book, perhaps a
pul) toy if he's toddling,
a pretty shirt that he ran
wear for "company."
For little sister — bar­
rettes and ribbons for her
hair, white gloves for spe­
cial occasions, frilly socks.
For little brother — col­
oring txxxs and non-toxic
crayons or felt tip pens,
new accessories for his
train set, a license plate
for his bicycle with his
name spelled out.
For big sister — lipstick,
nail polish, eye makeup,
cosmetics of all kinds, note
paper for her secret let­
ters. a token holder for
her bus fare.
For big brother — a
magnetized change holder
for the dashboard of his
car. some "way-out" after­
shave. or a T-shirt sport­
ing a funny slogan
For mother — a pad of
memo paper for market
lists, ball point pens to
keep in strategic places,
a pretty handkerchief,
gloves
For father — a key ring
with his initial, a pair of
driving gloves, a throw­
away ciguettte lighter,
lighter fluid and flints for
hu chalr-*ide lighter, a
tie or a scarf
fior the hobbyist — pho­
tography buffs can always
use roll* or packs of film,
flash bulbs, photo album
mounts
Model plane and ship
builders will thank you
tor sandpaper, turpentine,
iclue
paint brushes,
threaders, clamps, rubber
bands and clips.
Would-be writers will
appreciate a typewriter

Tips for
the tree
The nicest Christmas
present you can give your•elf and your family to
an eaiy-to-take-care-of.
fresh and fragrant Un­
cut Christmas tree.
Be sure to start with a
fresh tree. When shopping
around, run these two
simple checks. First, bend
the needles on the tree;
If they are pliant, the tree
to fresh. Then, gently Up
the base of the tree against
the ground A frrsh tree
will hold its needles fast,
avoid one with cascading
needles!
When you get lhe tree
home, keep it outdoors, if
possible, until you're ready
to set It up for decorating
Immediately saw off about
one inch on the diagonal
from the tree trunk. This
eliminates clotted rtslns
that form at the base of
the tree which could block
it from absorbing water
Place the tree In a buck­
et of water mixed with
Prolong’- Christmas Tree
Preserver —• the proper
ratio Is one capful Prolong
to each cup (I ounces) of
water. Prolong Increases
lhe water absorption and
"feeds" the tree necessary
nutrients and cartehy­
drates Bpray the tree with
water often.
Once brought inside for
decorating, the tree should
be placed away from heat­
ers and out of traffic areas
Secure It In a water-hold­
ing stand and watch the
waler-Prolong level care­
fully. A tree may absorb
as much as a gallon of
water a day.
One idea that will fur­
ther simplify the tree's
day-to-day upkeep: try to
use unbreakable Christ­
mas bulbs, at least around
the bottom of the tree. It
will reduce the Incidence
of bulb breakage, prevent
the children from getting
scratched and keep the
sweeping chores to a mini­
mum.

Christmas ideas
of other lands

This Christmas, try
something new. Break
away from the American
Christmas turtr-y and pie
holiday and use the tra­
ditions of other countries
for celebration ideas
For tree trimming and
_____________
party ideas, pick out dec­
orations and foods popular
in one particular country
Take Mexico, foi example
Serve paella, a rice and
seafood dish, and sangria,
a wine and fruit mixture.
For the children, hang a
ptAata colorful paper mu­
ch* animal stuffed with
toys and candles At mid­
night the children gather
round and break lhe plflata with sticks to collect
the prises.
Trim the tree in colorful
Mexican ornaments Dolls,
stare, and even jewelry,
look bright and happy for
the holidays
Or pick a country Ilka
Japan, and serve tempura.
1 How about Greece, or Po­
land? A quick trip to the
library for research will
help set thr stage for your
| International atmosphere.
This system helps every­
one, especially the chil­
dren. learn about and un­
derstand the customs of
others throughout the
world, and what better
way to convey the message
of brotherhood and good­
will?

Whether the action killed
the project. whether the

to test Hastings' toning
code, or whether the dev

iations for an access to the
north, wasn't immediately
known
The developer. Clyde Al­

The
Hastings

eox of Lansing, presented
a site plan with the main
access coming off the south
at Benson Street, which is to
be developed. The city code
bans access into residential
areas and the suggestion is
to provide access by extend
ing to the west Woodlawn
Avenue which is on ll&lt;e
north -property A A D
doesn’t own.

Similar action was taken
by the Zoning Hoard of
Appeals on Oct. 16.
Atty. Carl (feeding of
fainting was present at Mon
day * meeting, along with
Akox. He reviewed the
plan* for the development
and contended that the dev
elopment complies with the
zoning ordinance.
They discussed the pro­

blems they had in attempt

extension of Woodland w est
erly with Jay DeBryn of
Grnac Realty which dev

to Im- put in. which would do
no one any immediate good.

"We still think the south
route makes more sense,"
Goettmg said Even with an
access at Woodlawn, the
development sewer will go

“We're looking at homes

opposed additional tr-ffic

Ritter added that "A aee
ond need frequently en­
countered is one for super­
vised apartment living. We
have many clienta residing
in homes or nursing facilities
who could be easily maint
ained in an apartment if the
complex had a xtaff to check
on them daily and supervise
medication and meals in

"This would sllow tbe
elderly to maintain the poss
e*wons they frequently have
to part with when they move
into a more restrictive set
ting and help them maintain
a more positive altitude
toward themselves and life
in general."
Ritter said "it is tbe hope
of this department that you
wil seriously consider the
needs of our Senior Citizens
when voting on issues vital
to their well being."
The amount of traffic sen
tor citizen* develop is tow.
*pon»ors said The M units
would probably have the
fewest traffic of any 10 acres
in the city." Something will
be built on the site, the
dev r toper promised
Richard Cotter. 426 Wert
Grant, said tbe problem
bod* down to whieh way the
developer wants to go. Rob
ert Stanley. 916 North Taffe
Drive, said he didn't believe
there was any question of
"prestige. We recognize the
need for senior citum hous
ing and I hope to see it go in.
I'm concerned about the
traffic Bow." It would be
better for it to go mrth to
Woodland and east to Broad
way. "No one has any
quarrel with the housing
project."
Dr. Carl Peuraeh. who
explained be has a vested
interest as owner of much of
the land involved, suggested
the city might condemn the
needed land for tbe extens­
ion of the street.
It was pointed out that tbe
cost for the Benson outlet
was S7400 but some 131,000
for Woodlawn.
Alcox said he believed
they have a right to go out
into Benson "We are a
residential project." and
there is already an identical
apartment complex to the
east He said the project is
already $3,000 a unit above
recommended costs.
Mayor Ivan Snyder, not a
member of tbe Appeals
Board, explained municipal
requirement before the city
accepts a platted street.
The matter of an addition­
al $25,000 costs holding up
$1.3 million project -a»
Alcox said when the Site
plan was approved Aug. 21.
"we felt we had met all
requirements." After we left
that meeting, the Zoning
Commission continued dis
cussioo and after further
study said the access would
have to be from the north.
The motion to deny the
variance was made by Den
nis Cleveland, and seconded
by Richard Beduhn.
Chester Arehart. of 236
East Thorn urged favorable
•ction. pointing out that he
has been working with the
seniors' nutrition program
and many have substandard
living conditions. “This will
give them a chure for

you're giving tbe senior
citizen a square break....
you 11 be saying see don't
want this apartment com­
plex because we can fin'l a

A senior citizen naked that
if a town like Naahrilfo can

can't Hartings?

and Beduhn. those voting to

“Happiness

a Star” by Margaret Sleeper

Margaret Sleeper is a resid­
ent of Hastings, now enjoying
retirement after many years in the
teaching profession. She taught
in the Ann J. Kellogg School for
Handicapped Children in Battle
Creek and worked with the Lion's
Club on projects for the adult
blind.
In her book, "Happiness Is A
Star,” Sleepers writes, "This
story was written for little folks
and old folks and all the in-bet­
ween folks who still oelieve In
miracles on Christmas Eve.”
It is reprinted with permis­
sion by The Banner for your
Christmas enjoyment.
It was cool and quiet in the
deep pine forest. Shadows played
in the thick branches which
reached out to touch each other.
The topmost spires reached up to
find the sun in the bright blue sky
above them.
"Tiny Pine," as the other
nearby trees called him, tried hard
to stretch tall enough to catch a
glimpse of blue sky or the bright
sun, but he could only see the
thick blue-green branches of the
trees on each side of him and the
heavy needles and tiny brown
cones on the trees in front and
behind him.
All of the trees near him had
grown so tall, so stately and so
beautiful that Tiny Pine had no
chance to look out and see what
was around him or above the
deep pine forest. The other trees,
tall and handsome, had far out­
grown liny Pine but he often
thought how proud he was to live
in a forest of such splended pine
trees. He was sure no other pine
trees anywhere had such beauti­
ful, dusky, blue-green needles,
such perfect little cones, or such
sweeping branches, spreading
and reaching until they were a
forest of beautifully shaped
Christmas trees.
Oh, yes. Tiny Pine knew all
about Christmas trees. He had
heard the talk of men who came
to cut the best of the trees each
year. He knew how much each
tree hoped to be chosen as soon
as it was large enough. Some of
the pine trees dreamed of being
the tall, beautiful, fragrant tree
that a church might use for its
Christmas services, some were
hoping to be just the right size for
a family Christmas tree and
perhaps to stand near a fireplace
where children's stockings were
hung. Still others dreamed of
being chosen to stand on a table
near a bed in a hospital where
some little crippled child would
love and admire it all the Christ­
mas season.
Tiny Pine knew, too, about the
sparkling ornaments, the shining
lights and the gay, bright pack­
ages that decorate a Christmas
tree. He had neard it said that
sometimes a Christmas tree had a
glowing star on the very tip top
branch. How very proud he
would be to wear a bright start So
he tried and tried to reach and
grow, to spread his branches, to
feel the warm sun and the soft
rain which would help to make
him a tall, beautiful Christmas
tree, too.
But all the trees around him
looked down and made fun of
Tiny Pine, "How short you areI”
they said. "And how stubby your
branches grow. Even your need­
les are dull and drop off easily."
These were unkind words
and Tiny Pine felt sad, but he
would not give up his dream to be
a Christmas tree some day. "Even
if I am a little tree," he said to
himself, "I could make some little
girl or boy happy. I could hold out
my branches for their bright balls
and candy canes. They might even
make some decorations to hang
on me. I would not care if I did
not have lights nor astar, if only I
could belong to someone at
Christmas time."

When it was again time to
cut the trees, men came through
the forest and Tiny Pine could
hear them saying, "Here is a
beautyl Every branch is perfect all
the way around." Or someone
would chose a tall, shapely tree
and say, "This is just the kind of
tree I want."
Tiny Pine waited and waited
while he heard the other trees
being cut and carried to the
trucks.
"Please, oh please, look at
mel" he cried to himself, "I would
be a very nice Christmas tree,
perhaps not so big and so
splendid as these tall trees, but I
would try very hard to be a pretty
little tree for some little boy or
girl."
But the men did not even
look his way. The next day it was
the same. They even took the
trees on each side of him and left
him standing there alone in an
open spot.
"Now, someone will see
me," he thought, "and soon, I,
too, will be riding on a truck on
my way to be a real Christmas
tree."
And to be sure, someone did
see him. In a few days many girls
and boys came to the forest.
They were 4H Club members.
The owner of the forest had told
them they could have some of the
trees for their Christmas tree sale.
Two boys came to iook at
Tiny Pine. "Shall we take this
one?" one of the boys asked. "It
isn’t a very good shape. I guess it
got crowded with the other trees
and it grew crooked."
"We'd better take it,
though," one of the girts decided.
"We can sell it cheap or sell the
branches for decorating."
Tiny pine was frightened. "I
did not know that I was
crooked," he thought to himself.
"Perhaps I am not even straight
enough for a Christmas tree."
Then he remembered about the
Christmas decorations. "Oh,
well," he thought, "how wonder­
ful it would be to have my
branches decorate a church door­
way, or a mantle, or perhaps to be
used for a wreath on a big front
door I I would try very hard to
welcome everyone who came to
the door andthey would know I
was wishing them a Merry Christ­
mas.
So Tiny Pine was not too
dismayed when he found himself
in the small truck with all the goys
and girts riding into the town.
When they reached a large,
empty comer lot the truck pulled
into it and the young people

began to unload all the trees. For
some of the larger trees they
made wooden bases to make
them stand up. These were the
best of the trees. Others they
arranged into groups, according
to their size. A few of the thin,
crooked or damaged trees they
piled on the ground, it was one of
these piles that Tiny Pine found
himself. Price tags were tied on
the branches of the best trees but
no price was put on Tiny Pine.
Two men came to help the
boys put up a sign which read
'Christmas Tree Sale-A 4H Pro­
ject*. It was not long before
people began to park and walk
through the lot to find a tree that
they could use.
Lying in the pile of branches.
Tiny Pine felt very forlorn and
forgotten. Still, each time foot­
steps came near him, or someone
reached down to choose some
sprays of greens to use for
decorations, his heart jumped and
he was sure he would be chosen.
For several days the Christmas
Tree Sale was a busy place. Many
people stopped to look, chose a
tree and an armload of branches,
but no one chose Tiny Pine to use
in their Christmas decorating.
At last he was the only bit of
pine left on the comer lot. The
girts and boys cleaned up the
broken ends of branches, took
down the sign and cleared away
al! the scraps and litter. Nothing
was left to show there had been a
Christmas Tree Sale except Tiny
Pine. One of the girts picked up
the little crooked tree and stood it
against an elm tree growing in the
lot. "This one isn't good for
much," she said, "too scrawny
and crooked. We'll just leave it
here. Maybe someone will pick it
up for the branches."
Tiny Pine was heartsick. He
tried not to think of all his
beautiful pine tree friends who
had been chosen to be decorated
and make a happy Christmas for
someone. They would stand tall
and wear their sparkling lights
and shiny stars proudly. Tiny Pine
felt very sad and a little ashamed.
"Why could I not have grown to
be a beautiful tree?" he asked
himself. "I hope the other trees
will never know I am lying out
here alone, sad and unhappy."
The oay before Christmas
dawned bright and cold. But pine
trees like being cold so Tiny Pine
did not mind the snowflakes that
nearly covered him. At midnight
the church bells rang, carols were
sung on the church steps and
over all the town there was a soft
glow from many beautufl lighted
trees. Tiny Pino thought again of

all the other trees from the forest.
"I hope they have all found a
place to be a part of this beautiful
Christmas Eve," he thought.
Then he heard footsteps. People
were leaving the church and
going home to have their own
Christmas celebration.
Suddenly he felt someone lift
him up and shake the snow from
his branches. He was bring held
upright and turned around and
around.
Then he heard a man's voice.
"It Isn't a very good shape- it is
crooked and thin, but I might fix it
up a little bit.
A lady's voice answeredTiny Pine thought she must be an
old lady- perhaps a grandmother.
She spoke softly when she
answered. "Not crooked, just
leaning a little. But you can put it
on a board and it will stand up
fine, and the popcorn strings will
fill in the thin places. Isn't it lucky
we came this way home and
found this beautiful little tree? We
must hurry. There is so much to
do before morning."
The man carried Tiny Pine
down a dark street and soon
turned into the doorway of a little
house-a very little house. But
inside it was near and cozy an
Tiny Pine felt a warmness in his
heart. He was fastened to a small
standard and placed on a little
table near the window. He tried to
stand tall and spread his branches
as far os he could while Grand­
mother and Grandfather hung
paper chains, popcorn strings,
bits of foil an a few Christmas
cookies on his out-spread branch­
es. At the top Grandmother
fastened a beautiful star, made of
cardboard and covered with silver
foil. At that big surprise Tiny Pine
knew he had never been so
happy. But best of all. underneath
his branches Grandfather arrang­
ed a group of little hand carved
wooden figures-Grandmother
smiled as she said, "Is is beauti­
ful, John. No one else has such a
lovely little creche and such a
brave little tree."
Then they turned off the
lights and went off to bed. Alone,
Tiny Pine was glad to think over
all that had happened so sudden­
ly and he was happier than he had
ever been as the street light
shown through the window and
brightened the silver star.
The snow fell all through the
night and Christmas morning
came, beautiful, white and clean
everywhere you looked. Before
the sun was very high there was
stirring in the little hnuse. Grand­
mother came in to take a quick
look at Tiny Pine and to tip toe
back to tell Grandfather, "It is all
right. It is even more beautiful
than it was last night."
Then Grandfather came into
the room pushing a wheelchair.
Tiny Pine saw the little boy
whose blue eyes shone as he got
nearer to the little Christmas tree.
For a moment he could not say a
word. Then he began to talk, to
laugh, to reach. "Oh, Grandfather
-it's wonderfull It is the most
beautiful Christmas tree in the
whole world. Isn't it. Grand­
mother? Look how the star shines
and look at the Little Baby Jesus
and Mary, and the Wisemen and
the Kings and the tiny little Iambi
You made them, I know you did,
Grandfather! It is all so wonder­
ful I"
Tiny Pine was nearly burst­
ing with pride and happiness.
Now, at last, he was a Christmas
tree and he had a Christmas
family.
The days passed quickly.
Each day a happy one as neigh­
bors and friends came in to
admire Tiny Pine and to have one
of Grandmother's Christmas
cookies.
Then the New Year came
and Christmas was over once
again.
Grandmother took the trim­
mings off the branches and
pecked the little wooden figures

in a long box. Tiny Pine stood
bare and even a little more
scraggly. The little boy looked at
his Grandfather. "What are you
going to do with the tree?" he
asked. "He is much too beautiful
to throw away yet."
Grandfather looked at Tiny
Pine and wondered what he
could do to keep it a little longer.
Grandmother came into the room
too, and began to think of somo
way they could keep Tiny Pine.
"I know." she said. "It can
be a birds' tree and we’ll tie bits of
meat and bread on the branch
es."
"And I can watch the birds
from the window,” the little boy
exclaimed. He was so excited.
"Did you know I had named the
tree Tiny Pine’’" he asked his
Grandfather. "Because of Tiny
Tim in the Christmas story, you
know."
So Tiny Pine was moved out
into the little yard and in no time
the sparrows and once two
cardinals found the bits of food
which were tied to the branches.
One morning the little boy
cried out, "Sevenl I can count
seven birds all eating at oncel"
For many days the birds came
often to the tree and Grand­
mother, Grandfather and the little
boy all watches as they flew
quickly from one bite of food to
another.
In a few days it grew bitter
cold and warnings came about
the severe winter weather. People
began to talk about trees, bushes
and plants that might not survive
the deep cold.
Grandfather loved flowers
and he was espec^lly proud of
his big bed of tulips. Now be
begun to wonder if this deep
down cold weather might kill off
his tulip bulbs.
"I put a cover of leaves over
them," he told grandmother,
"but I'm afraid that isn't enough
protection. 1 here aren't any more
leaves and I can't afford to buy
straw.”
Grandmother worried, too.
She, too, enjoyed the bright red,
yellow and white tulips in early
Spring.
The little boy looked out of
the window at Tiny Pine-No birds
were eating now, for they had
found shelter from the cold in the
big trees along the street under
the heavy shrubs in other yards.
Suddenly the little boy
swung his chair around to face
Grandfather. His eyes were bright
and he talked very fast.
"I have an idea," he said.
"You can cut the branches off
Tiny P&gt;ne and lay them in a pile all
over the tulip bed. Then the cold
can't get into the ground and the
snow will make a nice warm
blanket for the tulip bulbs."
Grandfather patted the little
boy’s head and Grandmother
hugged him. "A wonderful idea!"
Grandfather agreed, "and I’ll get
the saw this very minute!"
Grandmother and the little
boy watched as Grandfather
sawed and cut and piled the
branches over the tulip bed.
Tiny Pine knew he was
protecting the beautiful Spring
flowers and he was so proud he
almost forgot his old friends, the
tall, beautiful blue-green pine
trees of the forest.
Then Grandfather laid the
last of the branches on the pile
and went into the house to tell
the little boy once more what a
good idea he had thought of.
Alone, in the quiet, late
winter afternoon. Tiny Pine did
think of his beautiful pine tree
friends.
"How happy I am," he said
to himself. "I’ve been a Christmas
tree with a shiny silver star, I've
been a feeding place for the
winter birds the little boys loves,
and now I am protecting the
flowers until warm Spring sun­
shine comes. I hope all othe other
trees have been as happy as I
have been and I hope they each
found a wonderful Christmas
family like I found Grandfather,
Grandmother and the Irtfe boy."

Dairymen Must Control Mastitis To Increase Production
Any dairyman who has
had to discard abnormal
milk, eull and replace cows
before their peak production
years or doctor a cow
through an acute infection is
• ell aware of the obvious
roots of mastitis ia the dairy
herd.
Milk down tbe drain, cash
paid out for replacement
cow* and the urgency in­
volved in treating a sudden,
acute case of mastitis are
dramatic reminder* of tbe
These sre not the major
costs of mastitis, however.
According to Roger Mellen
berger. Extenaion dairy
specialist at Michigan Stale

University, the major loaa ia
reduced milk production. Becauae tbe dairyman does not
see milk that's not pro­
duced. he may not be aware
of thia loss.
But reduction in milk pro­
duction by infected rows ac­
counts for 40 50 percent of
tbe statewide 1163 per row
per year ml of mastitis.
Cows with subciuMcal infec
lions-infections that pro­
duce no visual abnocmalities
in milk or physical symp­
tom* in tbe row may pro­
duce from 10 to SO percent
les* milk than they would tf
they were not infected.
In Michigan, that km in
milk production amounts to
some 275 million pounds of
milk per year. Mellenberger
say*. At current price*,
that's S28 million. National­
ly. dairymen could cull one
million cows and still main
lain current milk produetioc
if they could reduce mastitis
levels in their herds to 10
percent.
Infection levels now aver­
age about 40 percent. Of
Michigan's 410.000 dairy
rows, about 164.000 are in­
fected in at least one quar
ter of the udder at any given
time. Tbe average ia two
quarters.
Most of the infected cow*
about 95 percent-have sub
elln!*s! infections Tbe path­
ogenic organism* bacteria,
fungi and yeast* that cause
subdinkal infection*- are

abnormal, the cow does not
run a temperature and there
ia no apparent swelling of
the udder.
Another (our percent

have clinical infection* that
result in visual abnormal!
ties in milk and slight swell
ing of the quarters int el’, rd.
Cv*s with mild clinical malitis are not outwardly til
and do not have abnormal
temperature*
Acute mastitis the other
one percent of mastitis case*
- is characterised by sudden
onset and elevated body
temperature. Instead of the
normal 1013 degrees F. the
cow may run a fever of 105
to 107. The mammary gland
is exlremelv inflamed and
hot to touch. If tbe row i* not
treated promptly, death
may occur in 12-36 hours.
Cows that do recover may
lose weight, and milk pro
duetion for the present lac
tattoo may be ended.
Preventing mastitis i» a
complicated task because
msny organism* cause mas
litis and because most of
the*- are present in the onvironment at all lime* The
variety of organisms involv
ed makes it unlikely that a
vaccioe could he developed
to eradicate mastitis. Good
management, however, can
bring mastitis levels in a
herd down to 8-15 percent.
The first thing dairymen
can do to keep mastitis al a
minimum is to keep row*
heahhy Healthy rows can
better resist and withstand
infeettoaa. To keep cow*
heahhy. feed an adequate,
balanced ration. Mellenber
ger advise*. And work with
your local veterinarian to
design and carry out a vac
cination program to control
viral and bacterial disease*
Good sanitation, especial
ly in the dry cow tot and
maternity Malto, to extreme
ly important. Use no saw
duM bedding in the mater
nity area. Mellenberger
urge* Use clean, dry straw
or calve outside on grass

"Do not freshen more than
one cow on the same bed
ding." Mellenberger say*
"Freshening is a period of
stresa for cow*, and they're
more susceptible to mastitis
• hen they're under Ure**."
He suggest* that mastitis
prevention be built into tho
milking routine. Dairymen
should use clean running
water or individual paper

towel* and samtin-r to prep
rows hvfon- nnlking Milking
■ quipment should hr well

One of the most rffrcttve
• ay* to reduce mast it i» tn
lactating cows is teal dtp
ping. Making this practice a
part of the daily milking
routine can reduce new in
fectfons by 50 percent or
more.
Teal dipping, combined
with dry cow treatment, to
even better. Combined with
astute culling, these two
practices can reduce the
incidence of mastitis from
approximately 40 perrent to
15 percent in two years.
MeUenbergi-r say*.
"But you mu«t do both
you must teat dip and dry
row treat." he emphasues.
"If you do one but rot the
other, you protect thr row
for only part of the time. If
you prartier both, and if you
cull cows with chronic ma*
litto. youH have les* maMiti*
every year. By thr third
year, you should hr down to
10-15 percent.
*Stiek with the treatmetits even after you reach
that level." he adv;se*. "If
you get it down that far and
then just quit, the herd will
be right back up to the
original level
or higher within a year."
Any dairyman, no matter
how rarrful and ronscienti
&lt;&gt;us he is. can acquire mas

Because mast it i* becomes

a culture of her milk it done

A simple test that tbe

Tv 'iGash Grain Margins Slim For New Year
*

by William Van Dyke
Q. I went to doctors in two
different states this year.
Where do I file my Medicare
claim*?
A. A Medicare claim must
be filed with the insurance
carrier in the state where
the services were received.
Some states have more than
one carrier to handle med
ical insurance claims. The
Medicare handbook lists the
carrier* for each stale as a
guide in routing your Med­
icare claims.
Q. I am entitled to Med
icare under the Railroad
Retirement System. Aren’t
these claims handled dif­
ferently?

I Cash grain farmer* should■ n’t be expecting any super
profits in the year ahead
from feed grain even if they
arc holding grain in on farm
storage, because the world
situation is presently char­
acterized by abundance.
Il may require some astule market watching to
turn a profit in 1979. Con-

A. If you are entitled to
Medicare under the Railroad
Retirement System,you will
send your medical insurance
claims to the Traveler* In­
surance Company nearest
your home-no matter where
the services were received.
Contact your Railroad Re
tircment Board for more
information.

John Gergen. Barry County
Agriculture Agent.
The World Situation
Coarse grains (corn, sor
ghum. barley and oat* used
for human as well as animal
consumption) are up. Est­
imated of the 1978 product
ion throughout the world
have risen more than 12
million ton*, since late Sept­
ember estimate*, to a record
732 million tons.
Projected level* for world
u»e. primarily for food, have
shown a 3 million ton in­
crease. Ending stocks for

the 1978-79 marketing year

alxiut 105 million tons, or 9
milium ton* more than earl
ier estimates. This indicates
a ’.’.'I million ton gain during
the marketing year. The
projected rise it, U.S. stocks
will account for about one
half thr world trade buildup.
U.S. year end stocks for
1978 79 are projected to rise
18 million ton* above the

estimate*. Dcpite a large

maintaining experts. The
estimate of ending stocks for
1978 79 was raised to 52.5
million tr- trie tons, or more
than 1.5 billion hii«hel».
The U.S. Department of
Agriculture corn price fore
cast range for the 1978 crop
is 12 to $2.15 per bushel,
raised slightly from earlier

gram exports on a June-July '
basis in 1978 79 arc projected at 53 million ton*, or 1
million tons more than ex­
pected. The increa»e is due
in large part to recent and
expected sale* of U.S. corn
in the People's Republic of
China.
The Domestic Situation
Nearly ideal harvesting
condition* throughout the
country resulted in an est
imated 211 million metric
tons being produced as of
Nov. 1. an increase of 1
percent since Oct. 1. Dorn

Placement of corn into the
farmer-owned reserve cont

Nov. 3, nearly 15 million
tons of feed grains, including
11.6 million tons of corn
(455 million bushels* were in
reserve, [hiring late Oct
ober and early November,
weekly entries of corn into
the reserve averaged about
25 million bushel*.
The volume of corn held in
farmers’ hands is large, and
the narrow harvest basis
indicates the extent to which
the market is trying to
attract corn into trade

channel*.
Inventories of corn

Furthermore, the farmer

and with .'15 million bushels
of CCC-owned corn locked
up. thr influence of carryout

the market all year
In spite of a potential

mand situation is not reflect

more, higher interest rates
enough to question the wis
dam of holding cash corn

cgy. At the same time this
creates a good opportunity
for dairy farmers and beef
producers to buy feed.

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>
