Nightly 'paradeof autos in CBD
to be outlawed
The almost nightly parade of automobiles around the St.
Johns business district is either going to stop or there's going
to be a lot of drivers with a fistful of traffic tickets to pay.
Police 1 Chief Everett' Glazier announced this" week that city
police officers are going to s t a r t is suing tickets to the "paraders*
under Section 5,47 of the Michigan Uniform Traffic Code.
Similar- crackdowns on the problem in Lansing and Owosso
have resulted in many youths from those areas driving to St.
Johns to cruise the business district here, Chief Glazier r e ported. «The problem has been giving us a lot of headaches,"
he said.
The headaches have been caused by the drivers going around
and around the business district, many times in such long lines
that they block traffic on c r o s s - s t r e e t s . It becomes difficult for
drivers not in the "game' to turn east onto State Street from
Spring Street because of cars turning onto Spring from the west.
Another bad spot is Walker and Spring, where eastbound traffic
often has long waits to get across the Intersection.
Favorite "parade routes" for the drivers seems to be a
large figure 8, going up Clinton Avenue from Higham to the
courthouse, east to Spring Street, north to Walker, west to
Clinton, north to Railroad, west to Brush, south to Higham and
then back to Clinton.
'SUCH CRUISING OF THE BUSINESS district-particularly bad
on Friday evenings when there a r e big shopping crowds anyway—
has been stopped effectively in other communities by applying
Section 5.47 of the Michigan Uniform Traffic Code, Chief
Glazier said. St. Johns adopted the uniform traffic code as
its own several years ago, and the chief said the section in
question could be applied here in an effort to rid the "hazard,"
as he called it.
The section of the traffic code pertains to parades and processions and reads:
. ."No procession, or parade excepting the forces of the United
States armed services, the military forces of this state and the
forces of the police and fire departments, shall occupy, march,
or proceed along any roadway except in accordance with a
permit Issued by the chief of police and such other regulations
as are set p forth herein which may apply."
"We hall this driving around and around 'parading',* the
chief said.
So now, the clamps are down.

Blood mobile visit slated here
next Wednesday, Dec. 18
If you're considering gifts to
give for
Christmas, the
American Red Cross unit in
Clinton County is urging a pint
of blood that can be donated next
Wednesday, Dec. 18, in St. Johns.
The Red Cross' bloodmobile
will make its semi-annual visit
to the city that afternoon and will
be set up between noon and6p.m.
in the basement of the F i r s t
Congregational Church.
Mrs James Crosby, bloodprogram chairman, said no specific
goal has been set for the bloodmobile donations, but she is hop-
ing for at least 200 pints. She
pointed out that while there is
always a shortage of blood, the
upcoming holiday period drains
the supply faster than normal.
The b l o o d m o b i l e v i s i t ' i s
scheduled in St. Johns prior to
the holidays because of the fine
s u p p o r t area residents have
given to the program in the
past. Donations of blood here
play a big part in the Red Cross
Regional Blood Center's ability
to supply it during the holiday
times.
Persons 'with O-negative type
of blood are particularly needed,
Mrs Crosby said.
PAST DONORS of blood' will
be called by a group of volunteer women next Tuesday evening, Dec. 17, in a bloodmobile

The city audit for the 1967-68
fiscal year is back! It shows
St. Johns' general fund looking
real good on paper but with only
about a break-even status as far
as income and expense a r e concerned.
Leon Ellis of the firm of B a r - '
ris, Reames and Ambrose, c e r tified public accountants, p r e sented the audit report to the
commission Monday night, along
with some general explanations.
They wound up agreeing that
some sort of supplementary r e port might be a good idea to
help explain in laymen's words
What the audit report itself says
in financial terminology.
The audit shows a general fund
balance as of June 30 of $126,219.38, with assets and liabilities'
standing at $1,114,010.63. Included in the assets, however,
is $110,365.10 owed from the
water operation and maintenance
fund, and $61,195.53 f r o m the
water improvements fund.
, General fund revenues and expenditures showed only a $5,259.34 excess of revenue over
expense during the last fiscal
year. Revenue to the general
fund totaled $460,726.67, while
expenses hit $455,467.33.
ASSETS AND LIABILITIES of
the water supply and sewage disposal s y s t e m totaled$2,601,515,44, and the city hadahequity
in it of $1,763,210.48, Total r e venue for the systeminthe 196768 year was $236,023.75. with
e x p e n s e s totaling $168,365.65
before deduction of b o n d expenses. The total expenses also
do not include w charge for
depreciation of plant and equip-
ment, something the auditors r e commended be done in the c u r rent year.

audit will be presented in future

Kemper's fees include work
done for the city by Wells, the
deputy city attorney.
Kemper declined any further
comment Monday night following
adjournment of the commission
meeting. The last order of business acted on by the commission was to instruct the city
clerk to write letters of appreciation to Kemper and Wells for
their services to the city.
"Thank you," Kemper'said.

Starting on Jan. 1, overtime
parking in downtown St. Johns
is going to cost drivers 50 cents
instead of 25 cents.
The new figure was arrived
at by the city commission Monday night as they passed Ordinance 221 which establishes a
parking violations bureau. It
was introduced at the Nov. 25
meeting but with some doubt
over the amount of the fine for
overtime parking.
Commissioner Mrs Jeanne
Rand, who voted for a $1 fine
at the Nov. 25 meeting, changed
her mind and voted for 50 cents
this time. She told why in a
prepared statement. She said
she had supported the $1 fine
for two reasons — to allow
the meters to support themselves
and to keep cars moving, thereIT'S A L O N G W A Y UP

Mayor Wood said last week
that Kemper's statements (bills)
to the city have averaged about
$1,500 a month, including a $208per-month retainerfee agreed on
when he was hired March 1. By
comparison, Wood said, the
average bill for the previous city
attorney, Harold Reed, was about $1,500 a year, plus the $208per month retainer fee,
Kemper had indicated to the
commissioners during the previous three weeks that much of
the expense came as a result
of trial costs on two circuit

firemen
St. Johns firemen have reelected Gary Biddinger as president of their group for the coming year. Biddinger, St. Johns
oil dealer, lives at 710 N. Mead
Street. This will be his second
term as president ofthefiremen.
Other officers of the group
were also reelected at the department's annual meeting last
week. Vice president will again
be Larry Karber, and secretarytreasurer is Ray Kentfield.
The department will combine
its annual Christmas party with
a retirement dinner this Saturday night for f i r e m a n Ray
Fleischer. Santa will be present
at the party to pass out gifts
for the department personnel's
children.
Fleischer, a four-year fireman, will be working out of
town, forcing the retirement according to rules and regulations
governing the membership of the
department.
Fleischer is the second member to retire from the department
this year for the same reason.
Two months ago Ray Schneider,
a 12 -year member, submitted
his resignation. A dinner was
held at that time and a retirement gift in appreciation for his
years of service was presented
him by the department.
St. Johns firemen will be hosts
tonight (Wednesday) for upwards
of 75 firemenfrom outlying towns
for a meeting of the Alert Firemen's Assn. Firemen's wives
will furnish the dinner, which
Vill be served in the municipal
building auditorium.
Firemen are making plans already for next summer's Fourth
of July fireworks, carnival and
games at the city p a r k . The
Jaycees are joining the fireman
in the project.
Better take advantage
of that.

at FisherBody.Fouryearslater,
because the Lansing region was
rapidly expanding to serve more
people and more M i c h i g a n

500,000th unit.
THE NEW RED CROSS labor- v

in 1963 the center drew 35 AB
postive bloods which marked the
beginning of special drawings for
heart surgery. By 1967 the Lansing Regional Center had drawn

1 million units of blood.
Today the center must draw
250 units each day to cover the
needs of the patients in 73 hospitals in 33 counties of Michigan and the residents of those
33 counties when they are traveling throughout the United States.
Most of the blood drawn in the j
region is used here.

Gary Boyce, sophomore place
kicker from St. Johns, has been
awarded his first Michigan State
football letter.
Boyce,' who also is a varsity
baseball t candidate, proved to be
the answer to one of Duffy Daugherty's most fervent prayers this
fall as he filled the tremendous
gap left by the graduation of
Dick Kenney and gave the Spartans a dependable place kicker.
Boyce finished the season in
fine style, hitting on four of
four conversion attempts and
adding a 23-yard field goal in
the MSU finale with Northwestern. The game total of seven
points gave Gary a total of 30
points on the year, the thirdhighest scoring total on the 1968
Spartan team. He also was the
team's kickoff specialist.
Gary, who hopes to play either
baseball or football professionally some day, is the son of Mr
and Mrs James R. Boyce of 705
N. Oakland, St. Johns.

Ovid-Elsie High
OVID-ELSIE(C)-The Portland
Raiders had two scoring streaks
which gave them a 67-62 win
over the Ovid-Elsie Marauders
last Tuesday night.
Portland scored nine straight
points in the second quarter to
give themselves a 24-22 lead.
Then, after the Marauders had
caught up and led 35-33 at the
half, the Red Raiders made four
straight baskets to open up the
third quarter.
,
The Marauders h u r t themselves by failing to make their
free throws. Although the Marauders had 26 field goals to 24
for Portland, they only sank 10
of 22 foul shots. The Raiders'
19 of 31 free shots made the
difference for them.
Chuck Smith led the Raiders
in the first half by scoring 19
of his 25 points. Ken Goodwin
picked them up by scoring 14 of
'his 22 points during the final
16 minutes.
Dave Klabak led the Marauders
scoring with 17 points Sophomore Cal Woodard added another
12 for the Marauders.
The Portland junior varsity
also defeated the Marauders JV's
43-33.

Comfortable lead vanishes but
P-W hangs on to win 53-50
PEWAMO - WESTPHALIAThe P-W Pirates watched a 1 5 point fourth-quarter lead dwindle
to almost nothing Friday night
before finally registering a 5 3 50 win over the fighting Bath
Bees.
The fourth quarter was a case
of give and take—P-W gave up
the ball with numerous control
e r r o r s and Bath took advantage
of it. Junior Dave Ankney p r o vided the spark with five longshot baskets and a pair of free
throws as Bath rallied to almost
win the game.
Up unitl the fourth quarter, the
game was Pewamo-Westphalia's
all the way. But after the two
teams traded baskets as the final
eight minutes started, Ankney
began to bomb the net from the
20-foot range. He hit on three
straight j u m p e r s and Steve
Loomis scored two baskets within four minutes time, and only
four free throws by the Pirates*
Jerry Wirth and one by Tom Miller prevented a total collapse by
P-W.
,
With a little over 1 1/2 minutes left to play, Pewamo-Westphalia still held a 53-42 lead.
Then Bath spurted again. Don
Koenig socked in a rebound,
Ankney hit on a long set shot

Wolfpack
upsets
Wings rebound, run, pass,
shoot past Waverly 83-70
Coach Bill Swears was a most
•happy fella Friday evening. Not
only had his St. Johns Redwings
posted their third win by an 8370 score over Waserly but they
did in in such a manner that
Swears' hopes are buoyed now
for a real good finish in the
West Central Conference.
The Wings got a lot of shots,
hit on a good percentage, rebounded extraordinarily well and
ran well on the fast break. Five
men scored over 10 points. Their
13-point margin, however, does
not tell the story of the game,
because it was much closer than
that,
What was most surprising was
the rebounding. St, Johns doesn't
have too much height, and Friday
night Waverly's giants made them
look like midgets. The Warriors
had starting players; reaching
6-5, 6-5 and 6-4; Dick Hehmann
was St. Johns' only"giantB at6-3.
Yet the Redwings outrebounded
Waverly 56-39, Avith Rehmann
and "little* 6-0 Jon Berkhousen
leading the Way with 16 rebounds
each. Sophomore Dean Eisler
pulled down a dozen, too.
ST. JOH^S USED the rebound
open a night-long series of
fast breaks, and with clean, prisp,
quick passes they resulted in a
lot of lay-up shots. It was in the
vto
third quarter that St. Johns put
the fast break to good use, and
they opened a 10-point bulge
as Dave Gaffney scored six baskets, including four on the fast
break.
It was a fast-paced game from
beginning to end..The Redwings
shot only 24 per cent in each
of the first two quarters, but they
were getting more shots than
Waverly—thanks to rebounding—
and the score was even 14-14
and 30-30 at the two stops.
It went the *same way in the
third quarter until about the 2:30
mark b e f o r e the Redwings
splurged and pulled away as Gaffney broke free for a 13-point
performance. He added eight
points in the final quarter as St.
Johns held off a Waverly rally
midway through the period and
then built the lead up to its
final 13-point margin at the end
of the game.
St. Johns got an amazing 92
shots at the basket during the
night, thanks mainly to offensive
rebounding as B e r k h o u s e n ,
Eisler and Rehmann repeatedly
took the ball from the taller
Waverly squad and turned It into
points.
All five starters scored in
double figures for St. Johns. Gaffney_ led the way with 24, while
Eisler had 17, Rehmann 15,Terry
Maier 13 and Berkhousen 10. St.
Johns, .after a poor first-half
shooting percentage, sharpened
up considerably in the second
half and wound up with a percentage of 38. Waverly had about
the same percentage. St. Johns
could make only 13 of 28 free
throw attempts.
DAN VANNESTE, at 6-5, was
a thorn in St. Johns side. While
Fowler center Keith Thelen hooks
a shot at the basket over the outstretched arm of DeWitt's Dale Sherwood
during Friday night's CMAC game at
DeWItt. DeWitt won the game by a
66-54 count.

figures for the Wolfpack.

De Witt pulls free of Fowler
clutches to win going away
DewITT—The Fowler Eagles
invaded the confines of DeWitt's
gymnasium last Friday night and
for 2 1/2 periods gave the hometown crowd cause for anxiety.
But a second - half full-court
press by the Panthers bottled up
the visitors and gave DeWitt a
66-54 victory.
A trio 'of DeWitt players —
Chris Brown, Roger Berry and
Marty Lankford - tallied 16
points each and two Eagles, Keith
Thelen and Neil Thelen, scored
14 and 17 points, respectively.
Paced by hard-charging Chris
Brown, who comes on like gangbusters in a j a i l b r e a k , the
Panthers crept away from a 2322 halftime lead on the strength,
of d e f e n s e and some strong
shooting from the outside. Up
until halftime, Fowler befuddled
their hosts with repeated rebound
captures, and while play on both
sides rattled with early season
miscues, the closeness of the
race kept fans bouncing like
yo-yos as the teams traded baskets*
The initial half, however,
proved to be nothing more than
a warm up period for the shooters
because with the opening whistle
of the third period the lace on
the baskets begin smouldering.
Within two minutes ofthatperiod
DeWitt had made their intentions
known and after pressing the
ball away from their visitors on
several occasions began creeping away in the scoring column.
Brown rumbled through the

Board studying new proposal
for cafeteriq, at junior high
An alternate plan for the cafeteria area at the junior high
school In St. Johns next year
was presented to the board of
education last Wednesday night
by Sam Serrell, principal at Central School.'
It caught the board cold, and
their initial reaction was not
t much warmer, but they asked
Serrell and the administration to
confer with architect GuIdoBinda
and come up with some cost
differentials.
Serrell's proposal would locate
the cafeteria area for the junior
high in the west end of the main
floor of the present high school
building It is presently being
used by the high school as typing
rooms and a business classroom.
Next year when the 10th, 11th
and 12th grades occupy the new
high school—everything out there
is still on schedule—the seventh
and eighth grades from Central
School and the rural neighborhood
schools will move in to the present Rodney B. Wilson High
School building, along with the
' ninth grade.
A hot lunch program will be
provided at the junior high, with
the food transported toRodneyB.
from the new high school cafeteria kitchen. Original plans were
to place the cafeteria at Rodney
B. in the area where the farm
shop and ag rooms are located
I
now—in the southeast corner of
the building.
SERRELL'S PROPOSAL would
put in the west end, where It
would have several advantages,
he said.
For one thing, he told the
board, it would be easier for
the students to get to. It would
be on the main floor and relatively centrally located both
for use as a cafeteria and for
study halls, The original location in the shop area would necessitate students going down stairways to a lower level.
He also estimated that conversion costs would be less In
the typing area than in the shop
area. It would also be closer
to rest rooms.
He also proposed that at least
one of the shops be retained for
use in a general shop course for
the junior high—something not
JIOW offered. Serrell said thatr
an expanded vocational program
planned for the high school should
also Include an expansion into the
lower g r a d e s where students
could get some exploratory knowledge to take into high school
with them.
There was pro and con discussion about the need, of a shop
course in junior high, particularly with the space situation
the way it Is. Serrell said the
junior high—seventh, eighth and
2 rural schools sold
for $150 total
.Two rural school buildings
were sold by the board of education last Wednesday to owners
1
of properties on which they are
located.
The board accepted offers of
both p r o p e r t y owners, James
Parkhouse offered $50 for the
South Riley School building, including the furnace, washbowl
" and a few other equipment items
In it. Cyril F. Wohlfert agreed to
pay $100 for the Plowman School
building and Its few contents.
The land on which the schools
were located has reverted to the
owners now t h a t the schools
aren't being used, and under
those terms the school district
would have to clear the buildings
from the land. They decided to
• a'ccept the offers of the property
owners rather than have to spend,
considerable amounts to have
the buildtngs-the South RUey
School Is a brick structure—removed.
The board also last week approved a change In the type of
celling tile that will be put in
the new high school gym. Supt.
Earl Lancaster said architect
Guido Blnda told him a newly developed suspended ceiling suitable for the gym would cost
about $1,000 less than what was
originally planned.
AT THE SAME time the board
approved spending an additional
$395 for extra painted lines on
the gymnasium floor. The extra
lines would outline an additional
volleyball court and eight badminton courts. The lines would
be the same as are in the present
high school gym.
The school board also gave'
support—although not unanimously—to an administration
policy asking students to refrain
from buying Christmas gifts for
their teachers.
Supt. Earl Lancaster told parents in a letter last week that
gifts have been a matter of concern for several years. While
most of the gifts to teachers
have been inexpensive, some have
been substantial and costly.
"All have been appreciated,"
Lancaster said, "but we don't
like to see the children compete
In .this -Way_.^____
The administration policy also
asks that no collections be taken
up by students for bus drivers,
principals, custodians or other
school personnel.
The policy would still permit
gift exchanges among students,
but It asks that such gifts be
limited in value to about 50
cents.
The opposition of some of the
board members to the policy
reflected a f e e l i n g that the
schools shouldn't interfere with
such a universal policy as gift
giving. Supt. Lancaster countered
that since this has become a problem in the schools, steps had to
be taken to control it.
19 here

degrees
ninth grades—next year would
run around 900 students.
There was no attempt to make
a decision on the plan last week,
and the only action taken was to
direct the proposal to the architect for study.

THE CHURCH'FOR ALL . . .
. . . ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is the greatest
factor on earth for the building
of character and good citizenship. It is a storehouse of spiritual values. Without a strong
Church, neither democracy nor
civilization can survive. There
are four sound r e a s o n s w h y
every person should attend services.regularly a n d support the
Church. They are: (1) For his
o w n sake. (2) For his children's
sake, (3) For the sake o f his
community and nation. (4) For
the sake of the Church itself,
which needs his moral and material support. Plan to go t o
church regularly a n d read your
A n yes n answer to any of these questions is definite
proof of God's concern for you. God talks to man by making him "feel" and "know" of a better way of living. You
feel discontent about present conditions, you sense "something better," somewhere.
That's God talking to you. Listen to him. Come to
church this Sunday. Read His Living Word in the Bible.
This could be the chance you've been waiting for.

the a n s w e r , briefly and s i m p l y , is yea!
The need for blood is never ending.
Your gift of blood can be the most i m p o r t a n t contribution one, human being can
make to another, for it is the gift of life. L e s s than an hour is r e q u i r e d to donate
blood. Blood is needed every day of the
y e a r , including winter holiday p e r i o d s and
s u m m e r vacation t i m e s .
Giving blood is one of the e a s i e s t
ways in which any one of us may become
actively involved in behalf of humanity.
L a s t y e a r the A m e r i c a n people gave
a l m o s t 3 million units of blood through
t h e i r Red C r o s s . Most of this amount
was used in whold blood t r a n s f u s i o n s , but
many units w e r e broken down into the
v a r i o u s blood c o m p o n e n t s that enable
physicians to fill the specific blood r e q u i r e m e n t s of their p a t i e n t s . The p r o c e s s , known
as component t h e r a p y , makes it p o s s i b l e
for a number of patients to be t r e a t e d
with a single unit of blood. G r e a t p r o g r e s s
is being made in component therapy.
So we r e a l l y do want blood—most
emphatically! F o r only with your help can
the cycle of giving blood and saving lives
continue. Next Wednesday, Dec. 18, you
in the St. Johns a r e a will have an opportunity
to help when the bloodmobile c o m e s .

for some men and women and should not
be condemned. Such outside swinging is
ok because the "moral code is changing,"
he said, I am grateful to men like Dr
English because they remind me that,
underneath my Sinatra veneer of wisecracks and whisky, I am still an old fashioned boy who wears galoshes, not flight
boots. I take devilish pleasure in ignoring
my zip code, which I got from the postoffice. But I have a terrible time even
bending my moral code, which I got from
my parents.
I am thankful my wife is not in a game
of one-up-manship with Jackie Kennedy
Onassis. When the Ford girls made their
debuts, they had special hairdressers
flown in to make sure everyone's part
was straight. Which seemed an ultimate
in high living. But Jackie went one better.
When she got married on Aristotle's

New York. Now that's class. I hope he

Just when I was wondering what to be
thankful for this year, there was John
Cameron Swayze on TV. And he was
selling something I've, always needed:
A wrist watch for my ice skates.
No jest. This skater carefully strapped
the watch around the steel tube which
connects the skate blade to the shoe. And
away he went, whoosh, across the ice,
secure in the knowledge that time ticked
with him. To find out the correct time,
all he had to do was raise his right foot
to eye level, or bend down so his nose
slid on the ice. Marvelous. I haven't been
so thankful since John Cameron sold me a
watch to wear without worry while being
towed underwater across the Atlantic by
the Queen Mary.
There Is really no end of things to be
thankful for if a guy will just look around.
For instance, starting right out in the
morning, I am grateful for the clock-radio
that wakes me up. Lush music is a splendid substitute for the clanging alarm bell
or the rooster (I never heard a rooster
crow in my life but they must have been
annoying things to keep on thenightstand).
Then there is Dr O. Spurgeon English
of Temple University Medical School. He's
the psychiatrist who recently said, out

but occasionally you should take them off
and look at the lenses. America has a
deep streak, running through its assumptions. *

Much thanks to pitcher Hoyt Wilhelrp!
He's still playing big league ball and he's
older than I am. Now that Lou Groza has
quit football, Wilhelm is the only example
I can use in trying to convince my son
that I didn't go to school with Ty Cobb.
I am thankful for all the pretty girls
who walk by my office window. We have
Venetian blinds and,ongoodsummerdays,
I go home with striped eyeballs. My wife
can always tell, because I keep adjusting
the .TV picture when it doesn't need it.
Most of all, this Thanksgiving season.
I am grateful for my healthy family and
the delight they give me. A special salute
probably should go to daughter Chrlssie.
I went to open house at junior high and in
one of her classrooms I could find no
work with her name on it. The closest I
came was "Jill Fitzgerald." I went home
and asked Chrissie who's Jill. *Oh, thatTs|

an apology
Dear Friends, Major Griggs
and men of the 191st:
I am writing this letter to r e tract a newspaper article which
was printed in the paper earlier
this year. It was printed in
the paper that I was wounded in
a helicopter crash. Also the
statement was made that I was
shot down five times and that
the helicopter had taken a number
of hits and when it crashed it
exploded^
i
Friends, I am more than willing to admltthatthewholeartlcle
which was printed was not the
truth. The truth is that I was
on my way back to camp and I
was riding in the back of a truck
when the driver lost control on
a slippery turn and the truck
flipped over. I was thrown clear
but suffered a broken arm and
a number of lacerations.
Yes, the article about the helicopter was not the truth. What
made me say that, I really don't
know. I guess 1 was Just trying
to prove that I was as great
as the guys I was with. But
I realize that I can't be or never
will be as great as the guys of
the 191st. So friends, forgive me
for what I have done, and guys,
don't change, for there are no
greater guys than the men of the
191st. Please forgive me.

Take last Wednesday night,

the school board meeting about
9:30, and the good wife was
deeply engrossed in a book. The
TV was off, and I didn't want
to turn it on. I could have gone
to bed and gotten a good night's
sleep.
But I was wide awake. So
I decided to write up my stories
on the meeting and kill some
time until arespectablebedtime
hour approached. By the time I
had taken a phone call, gotten
the typewriter out, fixed some
pop and cookies and written the
stories, it was 11 o'clock or so.

to go to bed. It had been so
long since I was in bed by midnight that Ikind of hatedto break

TAKING FIVE
Attitudes and accidents
By RON HUARD
Local concern over the growing number of accidents in Clinton County brings to mind the
name of a long-ago friend whom
I'll call Andy. It has been years
since I have-thought of him but
his abbreviated life, snuffed out
by an automobile accident, Is
typical.
Andy was in his early 20's,
popular, single and c o l l e g e
graduate pursuing a profession
which was almost certain to
bring him success* Confidence
was one of Andy's strongest
characteristics and this element of his nature caused some
to regard him as cocky. Perhaps he was.
But Andy's self assurance
quickly wilted under tests of
adversity and he was prone to.
displace blame for his own
omissions or errors on someone or something else. Great
were his tendencies to regard
the shortcomings of others as
monumental obstructions to his
ambitions and he was expert at
pointing the proverbial finger
in accusation.
To those who did not know
Andy, his characteristics and
the growing number of accidents
in Clinton County probably have
little meaning but most generally behind every mishap a
mental attitude, if such things
could be Invariably measured,
probably would be numbered
among the contributing causes.
Throughout the United States
there are few county roads designed to support the traffic
and speeds created by today's
automobile population and yet
we drivers continue to disregard the dangers and travel at
speed which would challenge
even some of our major interstate systems.
We frequently operate our
vehicles with the attitude we
are completely responsible for
our every move, and yet, if
something unfortunate occurs,
Varied viewpoints
Time was when a youngster about my age
Wondered just when Santa his entrance would stage,
With reindeer so fast and his hearty Ho-Hol
There seemed no good answer why he was so slow.
We knew he was busy, but that's no excuseSince year after year he has the same use,
With twenty-four hours a day and that speed,
He was long overdue and we fretted indeed.
STRICTLY FRESH
If you complain enough
about your job, something
will be done—and you'll
then be free to look for a
new one.

we immediately seek out someone or something to which responsibility can be t r a n s planted. Like Andy, we are
quick to wilt under pressures

possibility that misjudgment of

greatest factor involved.

on the verge of getting to bed
before midnight, and the prospect was, indeed, scary.
Then I remembered the unmounted color slides that I
could mount. I got out the good
wife's iron and proceeded to
fix up about half a dozen of
them. But even after doing that,
I still had about 40 minutes
yet before the bewitching hour.
I considered shaving tonight
so I could sleep just that much
longer in the morning. But that
was silly. I got my pajamas on
and then considered watching
Johnny Carson. That was silly,
too, since it could lead to a
bedtime hour far beyond midnight, something I wasn't interestediin any .more than a
bedtime hour before midnight.
So I got newspaper and leafed
through it Being a faithful follower of the Peanuts gang, I
went quickly to the comic page.
Although this particular strip
didn't concern Lucy or Snoopy
or Charley Brown, I was quick
to recall Lucy's psychiatric
clinic that for 5 cents could
solve your problems.
With one eye still on the
clock as it Inched toward midnight, I decided to cooly analyze
my "problem" and save the 5
cents. What I came up with
was this:
I'm getting old. At 29 1/2
years of age, you need only,to
walk jauntily onto a college
campus and tell yourself that
those "kids" are really college
students, some of them seniors,
and you immediately feel old.
Then you start thinking about
how long you've been married
already, how old your daughter
is already, etc. And suddenly
that question somebody asked
you at the football banquet about
whether your son was on the

"It's midnight," I said. "Now
I can go to bed.*
Snuggled down under the blankets, I got to thinking again before I fell asleep. This business
of staying up late might be an
unconscious effort to slow up
time and' aging by prolonging
every day. Then, again, maybe
if I do look and feel old it's
because I've been staying up
too late at night.
Maybe I should just pay my
5 cents and let Lucy do a convplete anaylsis on this thing

OPINION
COMMENTS FROM OTHER PAPERS
ALBANY, Ky., NEWS: "Several Congressmen have objected
strongly to plans for the 1970 census, plans which include
120 questions, probing more deeply Into the personal lives
and habits of Americans than ever before. Census takers
would ask every American to give the source of all income,
the value of his or her property, tell with whom he shares^
his bathroom, tell his marital, educational, military and'
employment history, etc. Ohio. . . Congressman James Betts
. . . .introduced a bill to bar the bureaucrats from obtaining
this information under threat of a penalty of 60 days in jail
or a $100 fine or both. He is acting in the interests of the

Legislative struggle
By ELMER E.
' Proposals for new or expanded
taxation and'spending face anuphall struggle In the Michigan
Legislature next year.
•tf'That was assured when Republican member of the Senate
agreed to hold the line on present revenues and appropriations.
Meeting in caucus at Cadillac,
they expressed fear that unless
this fiscal posture was taken,
Michigan might again run up a
deficit budget that would equal
the infamous payless payday of
10 years ago.
"It's a matter of fiscal stability and integrity," said Sen.

to continue sound b u d g e t a r y

..tvThe GOP caucus agreement
apparently spells trouble for proposed state tax aid to parochial
schools and other new programs.
F o r c e s supporting parochlaid
have s u g g e s t e d , among other
"things, raising the income tax
to provide the funds.
But Schweigert, president pro
tern of the Senate, and Majority
Leader Emil Lockwood of St.
Louis said they don't look for
increased income taxes.
'There are two routes open
to the 1969Legislature,"Schweigert said "We can raise taxes

we can stay within the present
.program and revenue framework.

"Wednesday, December 1 1 , 1968
I would say the consensus is for
the latter *
LOCKWOOD DID NOT entirely
rule out parochial aid, but he
acknowledged its chances for approval next year are very slim.
"The only logical way parochlaid could develop is through
new taxes—and I don't know of
anyone who wants that," he said.
Schweigert said there could be
another effort to raise the state
cigarette tax from 7 to 10 cents
per pack, but this would not
produce a long range solution
to the need for more money to
fund new programs.
Two years ago, the Legislature
rejected a three-cent cigarette
tax hike plan. It was estimated
then that this would raise $30
million a year.
The GOP caucus filled several
key leadership and committee assignments.
Lockwood was reelected senate
majority l e a d e r ; Sen. Robert
VanderLaan of Grand Rapids,
majority floor leader, and Schweigert, president pro-tern.
Sen Milton Zaagman of Grand
Rapids was named to replace
Sen. Gilbert Bursley of Ann Arbor
as assistant president pro-tern.
Bursley reportedly is headed for
a federal post in the Nixon Administration.
Other new assignments included Sen N. Lorraine Beebe
of Dearborn, assistant majority
