Pro-split advocates air Owen-Gage dissolution views Monday, in a special election, voters in the Owendale-Gagetown School District will make another attempt to solve a nagging, perplexing problem under discussion and examination without solution for the last eight years. The current answer, as proposed by the Owen- Gage Board of Education, will be for the voters to approve a measure that will in essence result in the dissolution of the district. It will be the third vote in eight years pre- sented to the electorate. No one is prepared to predict today the out- come of Monday's vote. A strong campaign has been waged by an anti- district split faction ^nd the two meetings this group held recently galvanized a pro-split group into action. Meeting Friday night at Elmwood Township Hall in Gagetown, some 30 members of the district outlined how they felt parents and taxpayers would benefit if the proposed dissolution of the district is approved Monday. They maintain that: Moving in with a larger district will provide students with a larger, more varied curriculum which basically means a better education. That the Owen-Gage district will be forced to annex to another district re- gardless of the outcome of Monday's vote and at a later date may be placed in districts where the school is far from their homes. That splitting of the district would be less costly to the taxpayer now and much less costly in the future. That the state-wide trend is to larger districts and may be required by law in the not too distant future. Ben Hobart, of rural Cass City, said for persons interested in better education for their children, the curriculum tells the tale. Owen-Gage offers 41 subjects. Compare this to Cass City (62), Lakers (74) and Unionville-Sebe- waing (54), he said. In the basics, most schools are similar, but in the electives and courses for non-college students, Owen-Gage just doesn't have the pupils or the space to provide the courses, he feels. And remember, Hobart concluded, the other districts provide this extra education at lower cost per pupil. Fm not interested in the money, Lloyd Wolfe said, it's the education that concerns me. . . we just can't get it in a district with too few pupils. That's right, Mrs. James Kaoiaeau agreed. I graduated from a small school like Owen-Gage and personally know that your education suffers. I feel so strongly about this, she added, I'm paying to send my children elsewhere. To a lot of persons, money is the important consideration, Gerald Ellenbaum of Owendale said. I can show them with my own tax records that the persons going to Laker High will pay less than they do now. I own property in both Owen-Gage and Laker districts and my taxes were $3.65 less per $1,000 valuation in Laker district than in Owen-Gage. When I show this to my friends, it opens a lot of eyes. One of the most important messages we must get across, Meeting Chairmaij Richard Patnaude said, is that it is going to be impossible for us to stay as we are . ..we are going to have to do something and if we act now the great majority will be entering a district which they prefer; the school closest to their homes. Six of the seven members of the Owen-Gage board said at the last open public meeting that eventually our district was going to have to join another, Jack Downing said. We have been trying to solve our problem for eight years and this is our chance to do it right.

An insight into Holmberg, his life and views were aired a year ago in a personality por- trait published by The Chro- nicle. The article said in part: Holmberg arrived here fresh from one year's experience as a chemistry and physics teach- er in Antrim county in 1935, back in those far-away days of the depression era which put its mark on so many men. Born in Newberry in the Up- per Peninsula, the son of a Lutheran minister, the young Holmberg's eyes weren't set on a teaching career when he enrolled in Wayne State Uni- versity. Concluded on Page 8 Where I went to high school a good many of us kicked the gong around, but no one even thought about ringing the school bell. And that bell was attached to a rope that hung invitingly down from the bell tower and within easy reach of every student as they trudged upstairs to classes. A few years ago at a class reunion a principal teaching then and in school 25 years previously said if that long- abandoned bell were still in operation Pinconning would have been treated to an almost Continuous serenade. Today the building is modern, the teachers better educated, the students more unruly and the district in serious financial trouble. So what else is new? Concluded on page six. BY RICHARD HAINES While a storm brews over the Michigan legislature over financial assistance to non- public schools, the parochial and public school systems of the Ubly District appear har- monious. But only on the surface, be- cause the new burdens on the foundations of the parochial schools are slowly driving them to collapse. The plight as described by Catholic school administrators portrays a dreary future for the three parochial school systems in the Ubly District including St. Johnfe with 172 pupils, St. Mary's at Paris- ville with 144 pupils, and St. Peter and Paul's at Ruth with 236 pupils. All three schools have only 1st through 8th grades. Last September the loss of two teaching nuns at St. Peter and Paul plus a limited cur- riculum and crowded conditions resulted in a painful crash clos- ing of the high school and the transfer of grades 9th through 12th. Said Father Rushman, "Anew school was out of the question." The parochial schools are in such peril that the loss of a single teaching nun now threatens the closing of any of the three elementary parochial schools in the Ubly District. St. John's has instituted fees. Father Gej (pronounced "guy") of St. John's parish at Ubly reported a per family tuition of $50 with about 50% of the families paying. The school's struggle, he said, places a drain on the parish church which he said itself needs rejuvenating. Not all Catholic elementary stu- dents attend St. John's in their boundary area, and he said if they did, there wouldn't be room for them. "A new school would be impossible," he said. He said the parish had about 150 families, but that many of the "families* were bachelors Area representatives . . oSee related story say no to parochiaid page 4. or widows. He said only one of 25 of the young people in the community stay, raise a fam- ily, and work in the immediate area and that the diminuating number of pupils would only mean more inefficiency. Father Gej said the parish's school was recently pushed to the brink of extinction when a teaching nun became ill and could no longer teach. A lay teacher, he said, had to be hired, and his parish had to scrape up $6,500 to paytheir first lay teacher, Mrs. Irene Uhrich, who accepted a large cut in salary to serve the St. John's School. "It's simply a matter of math," he said. He said the loss of another nun, "and we'd be forced out of business." He said, "We have an uncertain future." He added it would pro- bably require almost a $10,000 salary to represent adequate incentive for a 2nd lay teacher. Presently, the St. John's single story school building houses 172 students. Three nuns and a lay teacher, Mrs. Irene Ulirich, handle the pupils. One class has over 50 pupils. Father Gej said another classroom and teacher are sorely needed for special in- struction. In one tiny room is a woefully inadequate 300 volume library, he said. A physical education program is conducted on the playground in fair weather on the paved parking lot. An Ubly Community School coach, however, has coached 5 or 6basketball games for them at no cost. He said a financial assistance program was badly needed to keep St. John's from extinction and that he couldn't understand the arguments against paro- chiaid. "I can't see their shallow approach," he said. However, he highly praised the Ubly superintendent and their board for their "fine co- operation and educational con- cern" for the St. John's school. Father Gej said St. John's, as well as St. Mary's and St. Peter and Paul's received a visiting nurse from the Ubly school, as well as remedial reading, hearing, and eye tests, shots, under a federal program. The Ubly school also provides transportation assistance for school and field trips. He said the school would have "gone under" in 1955 if the Ubly school had not helped with the transportation dilemma. He said the arrangement had been worked out before the Michigan legislature even made it legal. A year-long minister at St. Mary's, Father Richard Ratajczak initiated at his ar- rival to the parish, a school board for St. Mary's school.

Pro-split advocates air Owen-Gage dissolution viewsMonday, in a special election, voters in the

Owendale-Gagetown School District will makeanother attempt to solve a nagging, perplexingproblem under discussion and examination withoutsolution for the last eight years.

The current answer, as proposed by the Owen-Gage Board of Education, will be for the votersto approve a measure that will in essence resultin the dissolution of the district.

It will be the third vote in eight years pre-sented to the electorate.

No one is prepared to predict today the out-come of Monday's vote.

A strong campaign has been waged by an anti-district split faction ^nd the two meetings thisgroup held recently galvanized a pro-split groupinto action.

Meeting Friday night at Elmwood TownshipHall in Gagetown, some 30 members of the districtoutlined how they felt parents and taxpayers wouldbenefit if the proposed dissolution of the districtis approved Monday.

They maintain that:• Moving in with a larger district will

provide students with a larger, morevaried curriculum which basically meansa better education.

• That the Owen-Gage district will beforced to annex to another district re-gardless of the outcome of Monday's voteand at a later date may be placed indistricts where the school is far fromtheir homes.

• That splitting of the district wouldbe less costly to the taxpayer now andmuch less costly in the future.

• That the state-wide trend is to largerdistricts and may be required by law inthe not too distant future.

Ben Hobart, of rural Cass City, said for personsinterested in better education for their children,the curriculum tells the tale.

Owen-Gage offers 41 subjects. Compare this toCass City (62), Lakers (74) and Unionville-Sebe-waing (54), he said. In the basics, most schoolsare similar, but in the electives and courses fornon-college students, Owen-Gage just doesn't havethe pupils or the space to provide the courses,he feels. And remember, Hobart concluded, theother districts provide this extra education atlower cost per pupil.

Fm not interested in the money, Lloyd Wolfesaid, it's the education that concerns me. . . wejust can't get it in a district with too few pupils.

That's right, Mrs. James Kaoiaeau agreed. Igraduated from a small school like Owen-Gage andpersonally know that your education suffers. Ifeel so strongly about this, she added, I'm payingto send my children elsewhere.

CASS CITY CHRONICLE-THURSDAY, MARCH 13, 1969

No more miracles—fighting Ubly falls toBY JOHN HAIRE

(And anyone else he can get to help)

I won't say that Don Grouse is a loser, but he did predictthat Deckerville would whip Ubly last Wednesday and thenrepeated on Saturday by saying that Marlette would tripthe Bobcats.

I didn't see him Tuesday night when the Bobcats playedMerrill . . . . and it was a good thing, too .... I was pickingUbly to win.

****

This hasn't anything to do with whether Owen-Gage shouldsplit or not, but the word from Clare Comment of Gagetownis that if it passes, Gagetown will pass along a couple ofsharpshooters to the Hawks next season.

Hoo boy, how long has it been since the eagle eyes fromGagetown made Cass City cage squads the scourge of theThumb?

If you remember when Comment played here, you remem-ber just how good those imports from the north really were.

Let's go all out with basketball this week before the roundball season passes into oblivion for another year. The Lakers,a powerhouse year after year, are coming up with anotheroutstanding prospect. His name is Leppien and he does itall for the seventh graders. He is the only kid of this agethat I ever saw make six foul shots in a row. Insiders re-port that in one game he converted 16 charity tosses. Al-most unbelievable.

Easter time is, fast approaching . . . and here is Haire'sgift for you. . . a giant rabbit.

This 24-inch long monster is partially house broken (spreadold Chronicles) and has adopted Mrs. Ann Bassett.

It's obviously somebody's pet and I keep hoping that theowner will claim it, she reports, before I find it's a mammaand not a papa rabbit.

Ordinarily this column is devoted to the light side, butthis is a pause for a serious note. As pointed out under thesponsorship of Hills and Dales Hospital and the community'stwo drug stores, this is Poison Prevention Week.

Each year these concerns present this message as apublic service.

Two few know about the complete poison control center atthe hospital, Tom Proctor says. It was used again this weekwhen Jeffery Ware, two-year-old son of Ferris Ware, swal-lowed a bottle of baby aspirins and only prompt work at thehospital averted serious difficulty.

You'll find the message on the front page of section C.Read and heed.

The tournament trail cameto a grinding halt Tuesday nightfor the Ubly Bobcats who fellbefore the accurate shooting andsticky defense of the MerrillVandals at Bay City's CentralHigh School, 100-72.

While Merrill hit with as-tonishing regularity, the Bob-cats were stone cold from thefield and the game was no con-test from about the middle ofthe second period.

Beside missing good shotsfrequently, Ubly was charged

with numerous turnovers setup by the ever-pressing Mer-rill defense.

The Bobcats were also ham-pered by fouls as Myron Wruble,who starred on defense as theOrange and Gold swept to thedistrict toga in Cass City,picked up three early fouls andwas forced to sit out of thegame much of the last half.

Duane Fischer, who sparkedUbly in the title winning gameagainst Marlette was far offform as he missed several of

his pet shots from the sides.Carl Roth turned in another

top game in the losing effort,but it wasn't enough to offsetthe hot shooting and balancedattack of the winners.

But until the game was hope-lessly beyond reach, fans whohad been watching Ubly claw itsway to victory through the dis-trict tourney, had to have hopethat perhaps the scoring ma-chine would become rejuvenatedand anpther cage miracle per-formed.

It was almost as if the Bob-cats didn't start trying to winuntil they were a dozen pointsbehind when they played in CassCity.

In the second game of thedistricts,. Wednesday, Mar. 5,Deckerville stepped out to anearly lead and looked like easywinners.

The Eagles had moved outin front behind the play ofBruce Tanton and seeminglyhad the game under control.

At the half Deckerville was

in front by a comfortable 8points, 43-35. The Eagles con-tinued to lead late into the thirdperiod. With four minutes leftin the third stanza the marginwas the magic dozen.

For when Ubly went behindby 12 in Cass City it was timefor the opposition to startworrying. Featuring balancedscoring and aggressive re-bounding, the champs quicklyclosed the gap to 62-59 at theend of the third and were ontheir way.

Ubly tied the score with aboutthree minutes left and thenscored the final basket in thehair raising final moments fora 75-74 decision.

It was almost as if Ubly hadfound the script and decided tostay with it in the champion-ship tilt Saturday night whenthey edged Marlette 71-66.

The Red Raiders moved wellin front in the first period witha 22-10 advantage and held itfor the better part of threequarters. At the half the mar-gin was §6-28.

The Bobcats moved to with-in five points with 3:28 minutesleft in the third quarter, butfell off the pace again slightlyand still trailed by eight, 36-28, at the end of the thirdperiod.

But Roth starting pumpingin points on his favorite lefthanded drive shot and Fischer

began banging the hoop fromthe outside and Ubly reallyrolled in the final minutes.

It took them just two minutesand 3 seconds to roar fromeight behind to tie the score.

From there it was all downhill. The Bobcats moved intothe lead in the final minutesand almost casually extendedthe winning margin.

It was a well deserved vic-tory for the new champions in atourndment that experts saidnearly anyone could win.

Bifoss firingJUBILANT SATURDAY night after another close victory was this squad of Ubly

Bobcats, district C tourney champions.

A complaint was lodged withthe Cass City School BoardMonday night at the high schoolby Mr. and Mrs. Don Loomiswho reported that they felt theboard made a mistake when itfired John Bifoss as footballcoach.

We feel, Loomis said, thatwhat is more important thanthe results on the field is thecharacter of the teacher.

Mr. Bifoss is a good teacherand should be kept, Loomisreported.

President Horace Bulen ex-plained the board's position bysaying that Bifoss had not been

fired as a teacher, but onlyas head football coach.

The school board acts inwhat it considers in its bestjudgement to be in the bestinterest of the school, he said.

Many felt that the teamshowed lack of imagination onthe field and was losing yearafter year, Bulen concluded.

Donald Reid told the Loom-ises that he appreciated the in-terest they showed by appear-ing before the board to voicetheir opinions.

When we feel that a wrongdecision has been made webelieve in telling about it,Loomis replied.

Migrant Missionplans for summer

The second spring planningmeeting of the Huron-TuscolaMigrant Mission was held atthe Kilmanagh United Metho-dist Church.

Clarke to submit programsThe Cass City Board of

Education reviewed recent pro-grams proposed by a visitingagricultural expert to developa more aggressive vocationalagricultural program.

Vo-ag instructor Lyle Clarkeexpressed little interest in therecommended programs in-cluding a land lab, an orna-mental horticulture program,and a nature trail — citingthe cost, the lack of need andof time as reasons for hispessimism.

A school beautification pro-ject was encompassed in thehorticulture program and board

member Geraldine Prieskornpressed Clarke about gettingone started after he pointed outit was an area which might wellbe explored with good resultsfor the students and the school.

When considering test plots,Clarke said, to get student par-ticipation in the summer re-quires payment for their work.

Clarke said he would contactthe MSU horticulture depart-ment about getting a grad stu-dent to draw up plans for theschool. He said a landscap-ing firm would expect to sellthe shrubbery and plantings andwould be too expensive.

Clarke outlined the needs forthe land lab and nature trail.The board requested more in-formation and asked for moredetailed recommendations.

Clarke expressed interest ininitiating a co-op program butdid not submit anything specific.

"What are other schools do-ing?" one board member asked.Clarke said there were someinteresting projects in theregion and the board asked himto investigate and report wherethey were, so that they couldbe visited by interested mem-bers.

Three grass fire calls an-swered by the Elkland Town-ship Fire Department heraldedthe start pf the spring firehazard season and ChiefJerome Root Jr. this week re-minded residents that permitsare needed to start fires.

These permits are availablefrom the Tuscola County officeof the Department of NaturalResources or from the firedepartment.

Issuing the permits for thedepartment will be Root andKen Copeland. Permits can besecured from Copeland at BulenMotors or his home.

Permits are required whenburning, other than in a con-tainer. Burning in containersshould be closely supervised,authorities said. *

Two of the grass fires oc-curred Saturday and the thirdTuesday afternoon.

One was at the Cass CityLandfill Dump where the firejumped into an adjoining fieldand burned a small section ofgrass before being broughtunder control.

Here's an oddity that hap-pened once in the NCAA cham-pionship basketball tournament— and what are the chances ofit ever occurring again? . . .EACH of the teams that finished1st, 2nd and 3rd in the NCAAtournament of 1939 ALL hadnames starting with the SAMEletter — "O"! . . . Oregonfinished 1st that year, OhioState 2nd and Oklahoma 3rd. . .That's never happened in the 30years since then. .. Do you thinkit will ever happen again?

And, here's another oddity..,It's been discovered that whenCatcher Johnny Bench of theReds was voted "Rookie of theYear" in the National Leaguelast season, he became, oddlyenough, the first catcher EVERvoted "Rookie of the Year" ineither the National or Ameri-can Leagues! . . . You'd thinkthere ,would have been otheryears when a catcher would havebeen chosen, but there neverwas.

Do you have any idea in whichmajor sport the home team winsmost often? . . . Answer isbasketball. .. Figures releasedrecently show that the hometeam wins more than 64% of thetime. . . In other major sports,it's much closer to 50-50.

PAGE FOUR CASS CITY CHRONICLE-THURSDAY, MARCH 13, 1969 ( A S S C I T Y , MICHIGAN"

Representatives sympathize,

The assault of areal>ackersfor public assistance to non-public schools is finding stiffresistance from their legis-lators.

Though area legislators thinkthe new "Educaid" sponsored byRep. Robert Traxler (D-BayCity) has a better chance thanother programs, Rep.-Roy Spen-cer and Rep. Quincy Hoffmanboth intend to join the legis-lative battle opposing financialassistance to non-publicschools.

Rep. Roy Spencer and QuincyHoffman acknowledge the plightof parochial schools in theirdistricts. Hoffman said he had19 parochial schools in hisdistrict clamoring for help.

In Hoffman's Ubly School Dis-trict, three parochial schoolsare threatened with collapse ifthey lose a single teaching nunin their school. They say stateassistance for lay schoolsalaries is needed or they'llhave to send the pupils to UblyCommunity School.

Still, public assistance fornon-public schools is opposedby Hoffman. Rep. Hoffman said,"it's only a play on words whenwe say we're going to give itto the teachers." He favored"shared time* as an alternativeand said he didn't see *anywholesale closing of parochialschools."

St. Mary's at Parisville willconsider within two weeks drop-ping their 7th and 8th grades.He said it was the right of thepeople to operate and send their

children to private schools, andthat if instruction was sub-sidized "they would no longer beprivate."

Rep. Roy Spencer said sub-sidization of non-public schoolswould "disrupt our concept offree public education" becauseit would allow a host of newprivate schools to crop up.

He said Black Power groupsand rich private groups wouldbe starting their own schools andmaking their pitch for the publicpocketbook. He said more in-equities would result from aproliferation of new schools.

Traxler»s proposed "Edu-caid* provides that state fi-nancial assistance for non-public school students shallnever exceed 20 per cent of theState School Aid appropriation.

But Spencer fears the prov-ision would be expanded onceit was implemented.

Traxler's bill would disburse$40 million through the Inter-mediate School Districts withan administration cost of $1.2million. Non-public schoolswould obtain educational ser-vices comparable to that beingadministered in public schools.

An Ubly School Board mem-ber, preferring anonymity, con-tended that Intermediate SchoolDistricts were not geared forthe administration of massivefunds and w6re "ill equipped todo the job." Some, he said, weredownright incompetent.

Asked how his office wouldbe affected, Huron IntermediateSchool Superintendent Morgan

Ballagh said he was unfamiliarwith the bill.

Hoffman said, the EducaidBill, which disburses fund."through the Intermediate Dis-tricts, would be probably theonly one to have a chance topass in the State House. Hesaid the bill was conjured toskirt the question of constitu-tionality.

He seriously doubted chanceof passage in the Senate.

Traxler contends his billwould save Michigan taxpayers"millions of dollars" by en-abling non-public schools tocontinue educating one out ofevery seven children in thestate.

There are over 400 parochialstudents in the Ubly District.

Ubly Superintendent Sinke re-ported parochial students in theUbly District, if sent to UblyCommunity, would cost the dis-trict over $100,000 in additionsand a new school would berequired.

Often the fellow who's offereda bribe pockets the insult.

Michigan's top dairy herdfor 1968 produced an averageof 19,731 pounds of milk and708 pounds of butterfat. Themilk production average pro-duced by the Holstein herd ofHoward Schliker, Route 1, BayCity, was the highest in the 60-year history of the MichiganDairy Herd Improvement As-sociation.

Will Joos, 89,feted at party

Will Jeos, 89, still wants towork. He retired recently fromAnrod Screen Cylinder afterworking ten years and lastTuesday, March 4, 14 em-ployees threw a surprise partyfor him at his home.

Before that he had farmed65 years - day after day, weekafter week, with never a vaca-tion in all of the 65 years."Years ago," he said, "theydidn't think about vacations.There wasn't any place forthem," he said. "Now they takethem whether they can afford itor not."

With "yeps* and "yessirs",during pauses, Will Joos doesn'tlook a day "over 65. His clearcomplexion and smooth featuresdeny his actual age.

But smooth his nights aren't,and he reports that leg crampsoften keep him awake.

"I don't want to work steady,"he said, but Til work part ofthe time."

This summer he plans toplant a garden, and keep busy"doing things around here.""The best place for me is rightat home."

His wife died last spring andMr. Joos said they had plannedto get some new furnishingsand a car to replace his 1950Chevrolet.

But the cost of medical billsand finally, her burial preventedthat and now Mr. Joos wantsto continue to work and "keepmy debts paid."

When his 55-year-old Elginstopped recently the employeesat Anrod purchased him a newwatch. His old watch, he said,"wore out, just like me."

But Mr. Joos will continueworking.

the bus routes.St. Mary's, however, in con-

trast to its two parochial neigh-bors, has a new school (nowpaid for) as well as new resi-dences for teaching nuns. His800 capacity church, he said,is filled twice Sunday morn-ings and the school does notcharge tuition to parish fam-ilies.

But he reported teachers'salaries gobble up parish con-tributions, even though the $7,-000 plus salary for the onelay teacher is below that ofarea competition.

Like St. John's, this lastyear was the first time theyhad to hire a lay teacher.

Though the State Board ofEducation recommends a maxi-mum 32 pupils per class, the5th and 6th grades are squashedinto a 44-pupil classroom.

Within two weeks, St. Mary'swill consider dropping the 7thand 8th grade. "We have to pre-pare the pupils to be competitivewhen they get to Ubly," saidFather Ratajczak.

St. Mary's is nestled in his-torical Parisville which cele-brated its centennial in 1963.Father Ratajczak reported thevillage virtually all retiredcouples, and one parishioner,refusing to be identified, pre-dicted the parish might soondivide over the fact that manycouples would be ending uppaying for a few families*education costs.

St. Peter and Paul, itspride torn by the loss of itshigh school last September, isreported by Father Rushman to"not be building up any hopeson parochiaid." "I will waitand see what will develop," hesaid.

While additional space hasbeen created by the emptyclassrooms left by the highschool, St. Peter and Paul alsohad to hire their first layteacher last September and, asthe others, have found salariesdevastating to the school'sfinancial solvency.

Ten non-professional volun-teers keep St. Peter and Paul'sin existence. Kitchen help,home-room, music, art, physi-cal education are conducted bysympathetic parish mothers inthe school's struggle for sur-vival.

The volunteers, however,have to be supervised, and thatjob, plus full time teaching,plus administration and plan-ning is an awesome burden onSister Francis Kathleen, whosays the burden does not giveher adequate time for planningof such things as field tripsand other important matters.

The nun teachers receive nobreak during the full day ofteaching classes (some of themovercrowded) and are requiredto supervise children duringtheir noon break.

After a day of teaching, thenuns go to the building's topfloor where they live. With anunfinished sigh, Sister FrancisKathleen said, "It's like a 24hour . . . "

Occasionally the classes areon the honor system when thevoluntary aides are unable tocome in. Without teachers, thechildren are prone to talk toneighbors and the old schoolstructure built around the turnof the century makes an echochamber of the classrooms andhallways.

A recently constructed gymacross the street is used onlyby the elementary grades, whoreceive coaching from volun-teers from the parish.

Another layteacher, she said,would get them over the criticalstage and allow them to givemore individual attention to thepupils. "They need a lot morereading," she said.

In this respect, the federalremedial reading program fillsa critical gap, but not enough,she said. The school alsoparticipates in the IntermediateSchool District's speech cor-rectionist program, the federalfood program, and in Ublyschool's once-per-week vis-iting nurse.

St. Peter and Paul partici-pates in the Intermediate Dis-trict's audio-visual programfor 60 £ per child and runs asmany as 20 films per day inspecial rooms now facilitatedfor that purpose.

But the most nightmarishproblem to parochial schooladministrators resulting fromtheir financial plight is DeltaCollege's educational TV pro-grams. The $1.00 per pupilcharge was claimed to be beyondthe means of the Thumb areaparochial schools and par-ticipation was terminated.

St. John's, for example, hadspent over $2,000 for drapesand TV sets. The drapes arenow open. The TV's glumlydark.

The programs carried art,music, science, and socialstudies programs.

The crisis is coming to ahead. Parochial school leadersare calling a public meetingto discuss the crisis March 23at the Ruth gym.

pupils, if all sent to Ubly Com-munity Schools, would requireover $100,000 in expansioncosts to accommodate them.

Parochial school leaders aredeeply troubled. One, HaroldPawlowski, said, "the smallschools can no longer afford it- the State is increasing the re-quirements all the time."

School systems all over thestate are rapidly reaching thecrisis state. . . and of courseone reason is the lack of money.Another is resistance to inevit-able change. Schools are goingto become bigger (if not better)simply because there aren'tenough dollars available for thesmaller units.

And as the school units gobigger the problems of studentxinterest, student rebellion,'school pride and student dis-cipline grow with them.

It is a severe challenge tothe teacher. A challenge, ifanswered without tangible re-ward.

Everywhere you turn crit-icism of teachers, their union,their salaries abound. Thethought here as a parent andtaxpayer is that the increasesare great. . . long overdue andmuch needed.

A teacher is worth at leastas much as a bricklayer.

There is no argument with a$10,000 a year teacher. . . onlywith a $2,000 a year teacherreceiving $6,500.

And this is the crux of theschool problem.

Finding and keeping the goodclassroom teachers.

Lip service has been given tomerit boosts for teachers, butif the union wants them it doesn'tbecome readily apparent.

I've never read or heardthat a uemand for money foroutstanding professional workever held up a school contract.

Perhaps the worst school lawpassed for pupils was the tenureact. It protects poor teachersand does nothing for good ones.

Union representatives will bequick to say that teachers withtenure can be fired for justifi-able cause, but interpretation ofthe law reveals that for allpractical purposes, after twoyears, a job is protected for life.

And while the law protectsthe job, it doesn't shield theteacher from the pupils. . . oneof the most critical and de-manding of juries.

It not only takes a bettereducated teacher, but also abetter teacher to get the jobdone today.

Kids spot an inferior teacheras quickly as they do any otherphony and when the teacherreturns , year after year afteryear, a drop in respect for thesystem is a natural, inevitableresult:

And isn't there an erosion ofmorale of the better teachersplaced on the same level as thepoorer one?

Recognition turns us on. It'sprobably especially true inteaching.

We need to show the betterteachers just how importantthey are.

Wilson said church member-ship has been on the declinein the nation the previous threeyears, and that the young tendto shift away towards "week-day and involvement activities."

But with calmness, he as-sured that the big buildup inchurch membership in the1950's came from people "notreally interested in the church,it was a social thing." But nowthey're dropping out and hesaid, with calm assurance,"that isn't bad."

Wilson said the PresbyterianChurch is in a state of transi-tion and he credited it t© the"changing generational leader-

SCHOOL BOARD

Continued from page one

the tax mill rate of the re-mainder of the district wouldbe decreased .3 to .4 of a mill.

MORE INSURANCE

The recent accident involv-ing a Vassar school busgalvanized the board into in-creasing liability insurance onbusses in the Cass City district.

Limits have 'been jumpedfrom $150,000 to $500,000 at anadditional cost of some $65.When contracts expire, theentire insurance package willbe renewed, board membersdecided.

NEW EQUIPMENT

The school will spend $2,-903 for intermediate schoolscience equipment and received50 to 60 per cent more underthe National Defense EducationAct that provides Federal fundsfor the program. The money willbuy science slides, demonstra-tion kits, supplies, a micro-scope and similar equipment.

The board opened bids for asmall tractor for tending theschool lawn and similar work.Because of the difference inspecifications the comparisonof the bids was difficult. AJohn Deere was purchased. Thebase bid was $8 higher, butequipment quoted was ap-parently less than the bids re-ceived from other local dealers.

Teacher tenure was dis-cussed in an "executive ses-sion" (closed to the press andthe public).

Dick Carroll, who lives in Gagetown and teachesin Cass City, said that he taught in a school aboutthe size of Owen-Gage for 3 1/2 years. . . andmy experience there made me pay tuition to sendmy boys to Cass City.

Here's another thing that parents should know,Hobart said. If the split is approved, there willbe elementary principals at Gagetown and at Owen-dale. For the members moving to Cass City, heasserted, these statistics prove that no new build-ing will be required.

Hobart then read a school-by-school breakdown,indicating that the combined facilities of theCass City district, including Gagetown school, hasa capacity of 2,600 pupils. Total enrollment withGagetown would be 2,100 students.

Ellenbaum said that even if Laker High wereto build a junior high for the additional pupils fromOwen-Gage the total cost would still be less thanthe future costs of a program in the presentdistrict.

A spokesman also pointed to a recent meetingin Bad Axe where Roger Boline, of the MichiganDepartment of Education, told school authoritiesof trends in education.

Two bills ?are now under consideration, he said.The first requires 2,500 students in a district;the second, 4,000 students. Exceptions for hard-ship or excessive travel are allowed in both bills.

While the split of the district is the big issue,electors will be only deciding this issue: whetheror not to transfer $4,497,000 worth of propertyfrom Owen-Gage to Cass City district.

If this passes, a smaller portion of.the districtwill be annexed to Sebewaing-Unionville and theremainder annexed to Laker district.

Be honest - keep cool andstick to the cold facts always.

"I had no intenticm-of teach-ing," he said. "I thought pos-sibly of studying medicine."

He took his bachelor's de-gree in physical science in1933. He married Mrs. Holm-berg, who also was born inNewberry and attending Wayne,during his last year at college.

"It was the depth of the de-pression when I graduated,*Hoimberg remembers. "Italked it over with my wifeand we decided that medicalschool was an impossibility.*

He chose instead to pick tip30 credit hours for a teachingcertificate while working at oddlobs in Detroit. The next spring,1934, he set out as an educator.

As happens to most youngmen, he hac! what is called thesedays a "career crisis.*

"It happened, oh some fiveor six years after I'd beenteaching. I was offered a jobin industry.*

"It was with a firm in NiagaraFalls, (N.Y.). It was a goodjob and I went over there andtalked to them. Then I camehome."

"And stayed. I like Cass City.The community has been goodenough to suffer with me andI enjoy being here;*

In 1943, when the then princ-ipal, Willis Campbell, becamesuperintendent, Hoimberg wasasked to take over the dutiesof high school chief.

An'd, along with raising a boyand a girl, it's been that wayever since.

For as the so called "in-formation explosion,* and thearea's own slow "populationexplosion* caught up with CassCity, the roll of the part-timeprincipal he assumed during theSecond World War became a:'ull time job.

Sometime, in the late 50's,Hoimberg recalls, he left theclassroom for good. Except oc-casionally.

"Sometimes, someone asksme to put on a demonstration,*

Although as a former scienceteacher he keeps abreast of de^velopments in his favored fieldof nuclear science, he's aphotography bug on the side andhas developed a special demon-stration on ihe nature of lightand color.

"I love to put on demonstra-tions and help children under-stand the facts and principalsbehind this.*

When called upon to make arare appearance in a class-room, he prepares his lecturecarefully, the night before, withthe same care and concern hehas shown in helping some 3,0^1Cass City students move outinto the world.

Before the waitress arrivedwith the menus, my wife andkids had already decided toorder the speciality of the house- hotdogs. Not me.

"I think I will have flamingfilet of yak Peking style," Isaid.

"Here he goes again," saidmy son.

"Dull men don't get heart-burn," I said. "I am a swingerand I want heartburn." :

"You don't even know what ayak is," my wife said. "How doyou know it will give you heart-burn?"

"The yak is the long hairedwild ox of Tibet. I looked it upin my Funk and Wagnalls." Isaid. "And the Alka Seltzerman on TV guarantees that yakwill give me a sophisticatedburp."

"What is a sophisticated,burp?" asked my daughter.

"That is the type burp thatyou burp into your clenchedfist, pursing .your lips gentlyagainst the circle made whenyour index finger is curledagainst your thumb. You then put

your fist into your pocket andunclench it. The unpleasantsound does not escape until youhang up your trousers thatnight," I explained.

"What if you don't have apocket?" asked my daughter.

"Use your purse," I said.The waitress came then and

I fell to thinking while she re-turned to the kitchen to see ifthey had any yak. I ponderedthe marvelous possibilitiesnewly uncovered by this AlkaSeltzer commercial which says:"it is better to have lived andhad heartburn than to not havelived at all."

Beautiful. This is a com-pletely new approach to huck-stering. For years the medicinepeddlers have been telling ushow to stop headaches, relieveacid indigestion, erase sore-ness j cure aches and keepregular. Never have they said,"Go ahead, get drunk. It's fash-ionable. All the movie stars doit. And Mother Martha's Morn-ing - After Spray Mist willkill your hangover pleasantlyanyway."

The Alka Seltzer commercialshows the way. There is thisincredibly handsome man, see.All the women give him hoteyes when he swaggers into thisrestaurant and fills his prettyface with filet of yak, Pekingstyle. He says he ordered yakbecause it was there, and he'dnever had any. Adventure. Youjust know he is going to climba mountain on the way home.

The yak gives him heartburn,but so what? The women keeppanting while he plunks 2 AlkaSeltzers into a glass and glugshis misery away. I knew he wasan unusual fellow when I sawhim get 2 Alka Seltzers out oftheir tinfoil packets withoutcrumbling them. It takes a goodman to do that. Also, he had towait only half as long as mortalman for the Alka Seltzer to dis-integrate in the water.

The ultimate is obvious:"Jump out of a plane. All thebest people are doing it. Sowhat if you don't have a para-chute? You should see ourgravestones. . . *

The waitress returned to saythey had no yak.

"Ok,* I said, "give me ahotdog and stab me with a fork.I want to use the Bandaid theastronauts use."

Good ole Republican TuscolaCounty. The quiet Republicans.The Republicans who seldomtalk to politicians they don'tknow.

When folks ask me why Pma Republican I always answerthat I'm from a traditional Re-publican family and that alwaysseemed to explain it (though Icould never understand why).

But I'm in College Repub-licans, one of 3,000 in Michi-gan. College Republicans areconcentrated in the larger uni-versities and in the smallerchurch-related (Protestant, ofcourse) colleges.

Mock conventions in lastfall's campaign showed Nixonwith overwhelming strength inthese smaller church-relatedcolleges. In these smallerschools, club leaders see eachother often and often live incongregated dorms layouts.

In technical and commuterschools, and in some cases,junior colleges, College Re-publican clubs are weak ornon-existent because com-munication and group meetingsand assemblies are difficult toorganize.

Five basic characteristicsdistinguish College Republicansfrom other student groups:

1) Most are from middleclass to professional familiesand most represent the well-mannered, the well dressed, andthe respectable type of student.Many, like Tuscola folks, arealso quiet.

2) They may be a club worker,a senior party worker, some-one who likes the seriousenvironment of the issues, butthey're all Republipans.

3) They have a high levelof participation in many schoolactivities. They are often stu-

dent leaders in student govern-ment and other organizations.Many members influence, andare influenced by, other studentleaders on^ the individualcampus.

4) Most can easily relate tothe government role. They havehelped officials campaign, andhave become acquainted withthem at social functions, as-semblies, and conventions andthis is the major factor as towhy College Republicans arewilling to bring about change,not by tearing down, but bynurturing change through estab-lished institutions.

5) College Republicans havetraditionally been a mirror

, image of the community-spirited and majoritarian view-point but have in recent yearsreflected views closer to thatof their generation as a whole.

As their older generationcounterpart, such as TuscolaCounty folks, they traditionallyhave been estranged by theheaves and yaws of the liberaland conservative ship of State.

But no more.There is now a political war

ensuing that few Tuscola Countyfolks know about and it is notas much between the old "libs"and the old "wingers" as it, iswith the older generation ofRepublicans per se.

The process in which this oc-curred has been a long one andit is the same process (Michi-gan) College Democrats havefelt in recent years. It is thecause of the McCarthy-Hum-phrey split, and in Michiganit's a severe one.

But now it is even happeningto the more restrained CollegeRepublicans. College Repub-lican leaders all over the Stateare in seething rebellion againstthe "old guard* of both liberalsand conservatives and each fordifferent reasons.

The dissension has to beviewed not between liberals andconservatives but within eachcamp itself. Each camp is splitbetween \(generally) the middle-age, middle-class group and theyoung.

The "young1" of the conserva-tive camp are the libertarians,the "New Right". The "young"of the liberals are the leftists,the "New Left," though thereare far more libertarians thanleftists. Most politicos joinedthe McCarthy camp and somewon't have anything to do witheither party.

The motto of the "new" "col-legians is, "your life's yourown." It is the motto of a per-missive society. They like thenew autonomy given them bythe campus administrators.

Quietly there's been a revolu-tion going on. In minds, not inthe streets.

Here's what they're thinkingand here's what they want:

1) On campus, they want torun their own lives, determinetheir own private visitationhours and open door policiesand not have it determined bya larger group, not even stu-dents. It's the same for clothesand haircuts, though it's usuallyfor others that they defend it.

2) They endorse the SupremeCourt's liberalization of cen-sorship.

3) They want legalization ofprostitution and endorse theFederal government's efforts todo so.

4) They want a more re-strained military policy, apolicy of living, and let live.They are strongly opposed tothe proposed ABM (Sentinel)missile system, in favor ofdomestic advancements.

5) They favor a voluntaryarmy that allows people to maketheir own choice, inclriding thechoice of whether or not theircountry is worth saving.

6) They favor defining theirown morality and definingthemselves what representsvirtue and humanity. Theythinkof the old guard's God as amiS-imposed "Big Brother".

7) And they favor (of course)the 19-year-old vote.

It should be music to earsof the Tuscola County Repub-licans that the "new" philosophycould be expressed as, "govern-ment should do only that whichthe people cannot do for them-selves."

It's not that Tuscola CountyRepublicans don't agree withthe "new" College Republicanthought; it's just that theyhaven't lived up to it.

The next decade will be adecade- of crisis in the MichiganRepublican party. The seamsare already starting to burst.

At Allendale at Grand ValleyState College, College Repub-licans supported the campusnewspaper editor when he. useda four-letter word. OttawaCounty officials sent in courtand police officials to punishthe "naughty" editor, and GrandValley State College Repub-licans openly split with theircounty organization, and did itright after club members helpedsome of them in their cam-paigns.

It's going to get worse andthe party's future is at stake.

Agent's CornerBy Mrs. Ann Ross

Extension AgentMixed house parties — at

what age? It all depends on thematurity level of your youngs-ter.

Every child is different. Bythe seventh or eighth grade,many girls are ready for boy-girl parties, but many boysaren't.

In these cases, parents needto judge their child's maturity.Just because "everyone isgoing" is not a good reason whyyour son or daughter should.Too early partying, in whichpairing off takes place, maylead a youngster to the nextlevel of maturity for which hemay not be ready. If this hap-pens, he is in danger of losinghis child identity before he isprepared to accept a more adultbehavior.

School parties, in whicheveryone in the class is invitedmay be a better alternative.They may offer more activitiesand less pressure than manysmaller, private parties,

When you and your child feela house party would be appro-priate, you might give a partyin your home. If you do, makesure your child understandswhat you expect of him and hisguests before thetparty.

Plan some varied activities,then stay out of the way exceptwhere you feel the group needssupervision, the parent whosupervises too closely showshis child he doesn't trust him.And this could cause, him totake his problems elsewhere.

A little supervision and as-sistance from parents willusually help a party to be suc-cessful and give your child thesupport he may need in bridg-ing the gap between adolescenceand adulthood.

Letter to Editor

Anti-doe: just

factless babbleDear Mr. Haire,

I am writing in response tothe article and letters on the"antlerless" deer permits. Ithought it was a welcome changeto hear some concern for wild-life stated. I did feel, however,that your article leaned towardopposing the permits too much.Some of the opinions stated inboth letters and interviews heldsome valid statements, but mostof it ran into the class ofbabbling without any proof toback their statements.

I am greatly in favor of"antlerless" legislation. It de-finitely tends to improve thequality and sometimes thequantity of the herd. For ex-ample, Ohio allows the hunterto take either a doe or a buckin most parts of the state, anda large percentage of all trophyracks taken in the U. S. eachyear come from Ohio. Ohio alsohas one of the healthiest deerherds.

Pennsylvania is another goodexample. In most parts of Penn-sylvania, there is a one day doeseason in which 50 - 60 thou-sand does and young bucks aretaken. This totaled with a aver-age of 40 - 50 thousand buckstaken during season totals over100,000 deer killed per year. Inspite of this tremendous figure,Pennsylvania's deer herd is onthe increase and very healthy.The funny or maybe not so funnything is that Michigan's deerherd is as large or larger thanPennsylvania's. Michigansportsmen, however, harvestdrastically less deer per year.The 1964 season is the onlyrecent year in which Michigansportsmen harvested close to100,000 deer, and this was onlydue to extremely favorableweather conditions during theseason. It seems to me that thepeople opposing "antlerless"legislation are hurting them-selves by not taking the avail-able surplus.

The Pennsylvania exampleproves Michigan could harvestmore deer without adverse ef-fects. This should and needsto be done in many parts of

Michigan. I feel that Tuscolacounty is no exception. Our herdhas been increasing rapidlyduring the past few years and asI forsee it continue to do so fora number of years. However,there will come a time in thefuture when the state of over-population arrives. When over-population hits there will be asudden drop in the populationwithin a couple of years. Thiswill be due to a high mortalityrate which includes: deer of allages dying because of malnutri-tion (there maybe abundantfoliage, stuffing foods, but thereare only certain preferred foodswhich will give the whitetaii deerits needed nutrition require-ments), large numbers of high-way killed deer, and diseasesthat result from poor nutrition.True, it will be a while be-fore this will happen in ourarea, but it will happen unlessthe people take some preventivemeasures. It is time to supportthe Department of Conservationinstead of sticking knives in itsback. Many people blame theDepartment of Conservationwhen the blame lies somewhereelse. That ^somewhere else"is perhaps Mr. D. R. Poacher.You know, the nice guy down theroad with the nice family. Mr.D. R. Poacher just happens todrive around at night with aspotlight and rifle. So what?Is Mr. D. R. Poacher hurtingyou? You better believe he is.He's the one who is stealing thedeer you might have gottenlegally next fall. He's the typeof guy who thinks ithat becausehe owns a 20 by 40 foot plotor a thousand acre farm heis entitled to kill a deer anytime he wants . Instead oftaking maybe (at the most) onedeer legally during season he'llkill 10 all year round. He is theone that is hurting the huntingfor you. The wildlife belongsto everyone, not just D. R.Poachers. D. R. Poachers is the

one the Department of Con-servation is after; who are youafter?

Behind the CounterDrug Costs

Although we say our healthis priceless, there's a limit tothe price we can pay for healthcare. And it's a fact that |hecost of medical care has risensharply in the last few years.

The average American paid50% more for medical ex-penses in 1966 than in 1960.Most of this represents an in-crease in hospital costs but, ofcourse, modern drugs and ther-apy cut the amount of timeyou spend in the hospital—andrepresent better treatmentwhile you're there.

Pharmacists and drug com-panies are doing their best tohold the line. A recent Con-sumer Price Index indicatedthat the cost of prescriptiondrugs dropped 1.5% last year,to a record low. Drugs whichcost $5 in 1958 were down to$4.40 in 1967.

During the same period, theprice of "all items" measuredby the C.P.I, rose by 16%.

If you're old enough to re-member the drugs prescribed30 or 40 years ago, you'll real-ize you're now getting morevalue for your dollar. Withthe drugs presently available,you don't go to the hospital asoften, you spend less time inbed, and you're feeling bettermuch faster.

Remember, it's your goodhealth we're interested in.

How to compute

farm incomeBy Don Kebler

How much income a farmoperation earns depends on whohas the facts or who makes anobservation guess. So, just totest your opinion, how muchfamily living income would yousay these two average returnoperations make above all cashand non-cash operation costs?

1) A 200 tillable acre, 40-cow dairy operation farmingmedium textured soil and havinga $100,000 investment -.value.

2) A 260 tillable acre cashcrop, including sugar beets,operation on medium to heavytextured soil with a $180,000investment value.

Both operations will reporton their income tax return a$10,500 taxable income ajudthis

looks real good. But rerpemberthis is cash income and cashexpense plus asset deprecia-tion figures. Both operationshave fixed costs that need to bepaid for such as 5% on the in-vestment value of owned assetsand non-paid family labor.These charges must be deductedfrom this above taxable income.In doing so the family living in-come for the dairy operationwill be reduced to $6,500 andthe cash crop to $4,000, Thismakes the picture far lessbright now but, let's look atthe increase or decrease dif-ference between the beginningand ending year inventory valueof salable crops and livestocknot sold. For an example bothoperations did have an increasein inventory of salable live-stock and/or cash crops duringthe year. This increased in-ventory value will bring the sumof the family living cash andnon-cash income earned for theyear back to about $12,000.

Well, these operations lookreal good again but,wait! Theseoperations like many farmoperations have between a 30percent and 50 percent debt topay off. The principal paymentsmust be paid in cash and wheredoes this cash come from? Itcomes from the cash and non-cash family living income be-cause the debt principal pay-ments are not subtracted as acash farm expense in computingtaxable income.

So in making this subtractionthe dairy operation would havecash principal payments ofabout $4,000 and the cash cropoperation about $8,000. Now bydeducting these payments re-spectively, the remainingfamily living income for thedairy operation would become$8,000, and $4,000 for the cashcrop.

What family of five or fourcan have a normal standard ofliving on less than seven toeight thousand dollars annually?So, unless both operations soldtheir above livestock and/orcrop inventory increase valuecarryover, they would have todip into their business invest-ment savings in order to live.Any non-farm businessmanknows that to live off of hisinvestment is a one way ticketto bankruptcy if allowed to con,-,tinue very long.

These example operationsare much better than averageso what are average or sub-average farm operation fami-lies having left over each yearfor their living costs? You bethe judge.

LANGUAGE LAB

Mrs. Shaw's pride and joy isC.C.H.S.'s new language lab,which is adjacent to her class-room.

The lab, which facilitates 30students at a time, is used toreinforce language syntax whichis taught in the classroom and tofurther develop comprehensionin a foreign language.

Two times a week Spanish andFrench students don: their ear-phones and respond in theforeign language they are study-ing to the lessons which areprogrammed to them by Mrs.Shaw at the controls.

Mrs. Shaw is able to offerthree different lessons at onetime in the lab. She can pro-gram these lessons to differentplaces in the room such as toan individual or to a whole rowof students; therefore, whiletwo rows of students are havingone lesson, another row maybe having a different one. She isalso able to check an individualstudent's progress by "tuningin" her earphones to that stu-dents responses.

Mrs. Shaw feels the lab hasmarkedly improved the stu-dents' oral work in class.

Uncle Tim From Tyre Says:Dear Mister Editor:

Ed Doolittle told the fellersat the country store Saturdaynight that 'he was powerful in-terested in home rule being dis-cussed in some state legisla-tures agin this year. Afore Ed

could git into a perpared speecn,Bug Hookum butted in to allowhe was shore that issue had beenbrung up by a man legislator,and not a woman, and prittysoon the session turned in toanother discussion of the wim-menfolks.

Bug said he alius heard ifyou got a strong case you try towork out a compermise, and ifyou got a bad case you take itto court. Bug was of the mindthat this home rule talk wasstarted by some pore feller thatain't got no case atall. They islaws covering everthing fromhow much wimmen got to coverto stay out of jail to how muchcerall can go in hot dogs, Bugsaid, so he figgered the menwas trying to git a home rulelaw on the books afore the wim-men outnumber 'em in the legis-latures.

Zeke Grubb was full agreedwith Bug. He said the day whenwimmen was the weaker sex isas gone as a25centhaircut.Oneout of ever three workers inthis country today is wimmen,Zeke reported, and one out ofever six of them is a manager.One sixth of the wimmen is bosson the job, and six sixth is bossat home. Farthermore, saidZeke, wimmen that is earning athird of the money is rulingthree thirds.

It ain't been long since wim-men couldn't vote, allowed Bug,and in his life the whole thinghas turned around and they istelling men how to vote. Thehome rule and the rule ever-where else now is pinching theother foot, was Bug's words.

Not long back, went on Bug,wimmen was depreciated aroundthe farm and ranch like a tractoror a milk cow, and now they setvalues on everthing. He recalleda divorce case in England someyears back when the man wasasking $700 on account his oldlady had run off with anotherfeller. The judge ruled the wo-man wasn't worth" more than$200 on account she was secondhand and beginning to show theyears.

In this country a while back,Bug said this woman told policeshe shot her husband to git himout of his money troubles, andBug was of the opinion she couldof done the same thing by shoot-ing herself.

Personal, Mister Editor, Isee by the papers where moremarried men than single onesstutter. I figger it's fer the samereason the fellers talk aboutwimmen at the store. They can'tgit in a word edgeways at home.But I heard a feller say thebest way to stop the noise inhis car was to let her drive, sothat probable works in homerule to.

Yours truly,Uncle Tim

Watch for heart

attack signals

The proper term for onevariety of heart attack, is anacute myocardial infarction. A"heart attack", as the term isused by most people, reallymeans anything you want it tomean. It's riot a very preciseterm. Myocardial infarction isthe medical term, which has avery specific derivation. Myo-cardium is the muscle of theheart. Myocardial means "fromthe muscle," and infarction isa pathological term, whichmeans death due to loss ofblood supply.

A lot of things happen in aheart attack of the myocardialinfarction variety. It is a verydynamic situation in which thereis a "pre-coronary state," thereis the actual heart attack itself,and then there is finally the re-pair and healing process.

People say that they haveheard of somebody going to adoctor, getting an electro-cardiogram, going through acomplete physical, and thenstepping outdoors and having anattack. They ask the question"isn't there any way of pre-dicting on the basis of presentday knowledge that a personwill have a heart attack?"

There are predicters that canbe used for populations but theyhaven't toned them down closeenough to be „ able to say thatfor a given person these pre-dicters are going to be effective.For instance, doctors know thatindividuals who are overweight,who have high blood pressure,smoke, have abnormal fats inthe blood and a family historysuggesting a frequency of heartattacks in the family, are moredisposed to have heart attacksthan those that don't have thesepredicters. But for the in-dividual patient, this kind ofinformation may not be terribly

helpful.It has been known for some

time that as many as two outof three persons who go intohospitals with established heartattacks have had a warning,usually in the form of somesort of chest pain developing.Sometimes this was interpretedby the patient as a gastric dis-turbance or an upset stomach,or something like that. Some-times they have called the doc-tor, and the doctor recognizedthat it was an impending coro-nary. Other times there weren'tenough clues available, exceptin retrospect, to recognize whatwas going on. But the point isthat there was a warning andthat there was something goingon of a dynamic nature that wasinterfering with the blood supplyand that if a person can beaware of this maybe somethingcan be done to prevent an at-tack.

First, the person has to getin touch with his physician^and his physician has then got totry and evaluate what's going;on. The doctor is on the out-side looking in. He can't seeeverything that's going on in-side the , patient or in thepatient's heart, and so he hasto take a careful history, findout just what the sequence ofevents i§,J3e has to do an ap-propriate physical examinationand add to it certain lab tests,such as electrocardiogram orchest film, if it were appropri-ate. If he thinks it is an im-pending heart attack, he mayvery well want to put that patientat rest, possibly in the hospital.

Doctors are becoming muchmore aware of the importanceof the impending stage andbeginning to evaluate thesepatients rather intensively inspecial units to see whether theycan prevent the heart attackoccurring.

Now, let's assume that theattack has occurred. What'sgoing to happen to the patient?Some patients sail through andhave complete recovery with nocomplications, ^ and, indeed,doctors know that a certainpercentage of people have asilent heart attack. People don'tknow that anything is going on.The person doesn't have pain,he doesn't feel that he is sick,and yet on a routine examina-tion many months later, thephysician may find an abnor-mality in the cardiogram orsome other thing that he hasdone and say, "my goodness, itlooks as though you've had aheart attack", and the personwasn't aware of it at all.

The other aspect is that theissue may be settled veryquickly. A significant per-centage of patients who haveheart attacks have a primaryabnormality in rhythm, in whichthe heart can no longer pumpproperly, and they die suddenly.Death is almost instant withthe attack.

Far and away the majorityof patients who reach the hos-pital have problems with theheart as a pump. The musclefails to squeeze and pump theblood out of the heart or thereis an abnormality in the regularrhythm controlling mechanism,and this can lead to total car-diovascular collapse. . calledshock. . which has a very highmortality. The patient may goahead and die, or with appropri-ate treatment, often very in-tensive treatment, he may re-cover.

The coronary care unit wasestablished in hospitals notquite a decade ago as a specialplace for handling the patientwith a heart attack. Becauseof the fact that sudden death mayoccur or abnormalities ofrhythm or pumping may occur,doctors have learned that if agreat deal of attention is paidto the rhythm of the heart,there can be considerable im-provement.

If the abnormal rhythms areintensively recognized andtreated, the mortality is quitelow and then usually due to somemajor catastrophe, such as rup-ture of the heart, which cannotat the present time be predicted.

In December yards and yardsof old draperies, remnants,used coats, bedspreads, sheetblankets, old wool skirts andruined nylons were collected.

In January the work startedat the various homes. Thewomen pieced together woolenor cotton quilt tops.

In two sessions at the church,three quilting frames wereutilized and ten quilts tied. Twomore were completed at home.

Mrs. Eyer points to the needwhen she discusses the project.Biafra, Vietnam, India, Jordanand similar countries are indesperate need, she said. Manytimes an entire family sleepson the grounds, sharing a singlequilt.

Because of this need, shesaid, the project will continue.

In addition to the quilts, so meof the members of the churchare sewing clothes from some ofthe larger remnants.

SUGGESTS SOLUTIONS

A detailed prescription forcuring the state's urban malaiseis set forth by the MichiganWelfare League.

The 40-page document callsfor a mixed bag of tax lawrevisions, expanded housingauthority loans, creation of so-called new towns, and estab-lishment of a state urban af-fairs department.

The league, a statewide citi-zens' organization, said theproposals are based on a 10-month study of Michigan's hous-ing and urban ills.

"The housing situation for lowand moderate income personsremains one of the most criticalproblems facing Michigantoday," said Detroit attorneyGeorge E. Bushnell Jr., chair-man of a special League studycommittee.

GREAT NEED

Immediate need for a mini-mum of 150,000 housing unitsexists in Michigan^ believes theLeague, including 100,000 inDetroit, the state's largest city,by far.

It said the state has beenbuilding homes for low incomefamilies at the rate of 25,000per year, and this is woefullyinadequate.

Studies by other organiza-tions after the 1967 Detroitriot underscored the urgent

need for accelerated housingprograms in the Motor City.

The study showed that otherMichigan cities, Lansing, Flint,Saginaw and Grand Rapids like-wise have an "acute shortageof decent housing available forlow-income persons."

TOUGH PROBLEM

Housing that can be des-cribed as safe, sanitary anddecent in Detroit and elsewhereis ^either too costly for themto afford, or unavailable tothem because of discriminatoryhousing practices," the Leagueadded.

"Research by our universitysocial scientists can help de-velop cheaper and quickermethods for materials forbuilding housing," it stated.

Here are the major in-gredients of the League's planfor solving the state's urbanhousing problems:

Revise and update the Michi-gan Housing Code to make itmore uniform and useful,especially as regards avail-ability of funds.

Establish "new towns" out-, side the big city ghetto areasto permit development of self-contained communities withthousands of housing units forfamilies of all income levels.

Start a "land bank" programwhereby the state would acquireparcels of property and developthem for housing purposes.

One For The Road

Smuggling is

a loser's game

By Dan Marlowe

Create a state department ofurban affairs to make avail-able the environment of humanservices necessary for theadequate function of familiesin low-income housing.

Revamp state tax laws toaid in housing rehabilitationprojects.

Increase the bonding powerof local housing authorities sothey can build more housingunits.

"Michigan's immediate andlong-range housing needs aremassive," the League said."They can be adequately metonly by a massive response."

CAPITOL ATTENTION

On a related front, Gov, Wil-liam G. Milliken announced hisadministration will be dedicatedto solving Michigan's urbantroubles.

"The problems of the cityare the problems of us all,"he told the state Legislature ina special message, "whether welive in the Upper Peninsula,Benton Harbor or Detroit."

Milliken said the cities ofMichigan face a "shortage ofresources* that the state couldmeet best if the federal govern-ment begins to channel its fundsthrough block grants to thestate.

First priority, he said, mustgo to "redirecting our existingprograms andimprovingthem."He said the total general bud-get increase from the stategeneral and restricted funds is11 per cent this year.

Excerpts from a news re-lease by the Bureau of Customs,a division of the U. S. Trea-sury Department:

A record total of $3,179,762,-090 was collected by the Bureauof; Customs during 1968. It wasthe first time in its 180 yearhistory that Customs1 revenuesexceeded the three billion dollarmark.

With the approach of lambingseason in Michigan, sheepgrowers need to watch theirewes closely for signs of preg-nancy disease, advises AlfredBallweg, county extension agri-cultural agent.

The cause of this disease isthe failure of the ewe to getenough nourishment for her un-born lamb or lambs.

Older ewes carrying twins ortriplets are most likely to beaffected, but younger ewes get-ting poor quality roughage mayalso develop the disease.

Affected ewes are less activethan the rest of the flock andwalk very slowly in the earlystages of the disease, Ballwegexplains. Later, they developstiffness, become weaker andhave trouble getting up anddown, unless the disease ischecked.

In the later stages of thedisease, an infected ewe maywalk in a circle or stand withher head against some object.As the trouble progresses, theewe cannot rise and lies withher head turned to one side.Other symptoms include rapidbreathing, blindness and grind-ing of the teeth.

Graydon Blank, MichiganState University sheep spe-cialist, advises producers tocheck the flock carefully forthe condition of all ewes. Feedmore and better roughage aslambing time draws near. Feedfrom one-half to a pound offarm grains daily for the lastmonth before lambing. Separateewes that are not gaining weightand feed them more liberally.

Prompt treatment may help,Blank suggests. Drench affectedewes with a cup of canemolasses twice a day. Dilutingthe molasses with warm watermakes it easier to give. Offerthe ewes the choicest feed.

Call the local veterinarianearly for his help if pregnancydisease hits your flock, addsBlank. He may inject sugar

solutions or other drugsdirectly into the blood streamto hasten the recovery of severecases.

He must treat the affectedewe in the early stages of thedisease, says Blank, if thetreatment is to be effective.Most ewes will make completerecovery once their lambs areborn.

Death and taxes continue tobe a sure thing, in this chang-ing world.

NOVESTA TOWNSHIP JUNK AND DISMANTLED CAR ORDINANCE

and 10. Baltimore.Where money in those

amounts is involved, there willalways be attempts to bypass thesysteffiu Customs lists many ofthe tricks employed in futileefforts to avoid payment of dutyor to smuggle illegal items intothe country.

Some travelers, of course,merely fall victim to listeningto bad advice. Like the womanvisitor to Hong Kong who wastold that she wouldn't need todeclare her jewelry purchasesupon her return if she worethem. Not checking the regula-tions resulted in Customs seiz-ing the jewelry pending paymentof the proper duty.

But outright smuggling is onthe increase, and as might beexpected, much of this is takingplace in the area of drugs.Seizures of hashish, marijuana,benzedrene, seeonal, cocaine,amphetamines, heroin, LSD,and related hypodermic equip-ment are made in increasingquantities.

At Detroit, Customs revealedthe discovery of 18 pounds ofhashish concealed in the seatsof a shipment of chairs. Twodays later, Customs examined amail package addressed to thesame party. The package con-tained six religious paintingson wooden slabs. Each slab con-tained two pounds of hashish.

It used to be that smugglingwas thought of in terms ofvaluable jewels, and the Bureaudoes list one item of the inter-ception of 175 carats of cut andpolished diamonds. But with theincreasing use and demand fordurgs, value has been createdwhich encourages smuggling.

Customs reports that it usedto be unusual to find a load of100 pounds of marijuana. Elevenrecent interceptions totaled agross weight of 2338 pounds, anaverage of more than 212 poundsper load. Young persons are in-volved in these arrests, themajority of which are made onthe Mexican-U.S. border.

Perhaps because his own in-come is involved, Uncle Sam'spenalties for smuggling havealways been proportionatelyharsher than actual dollar valuemight seem to require.

It's a loser's game, and thosewho indulge in it for kicks or forprofit are storing up prison sen-tences for themselves.
