ST. JOHNS—The Clinton County Board of Commissioners Tuesday approved a $ 5 million hike in the county's total equalized valuation, during a regular board session.

The new equalized valuation for 1971 will stand at $159,802,009, a jump of almost $5 million from last year's mark of $154,857,162. It was also about $3.5 million higher than the total assessment of board of review which set the valuation at $156,295,058.

In releasing the figures, signed by the county equalization committee of Gerald L ankf ord, Duane Chamberlain, Walter Nobis and Andrew Cobb, the board divided the valuation into two segments including real property and persona^property.

Only two governmental units were assessed an equalization factor, St. Johns was given a 1.187 factor, a dip from last year's 1.188 figure under real property. Watertown Township was given a factor of 1.046, a jump from the 1970 figure of 1.038.

The factor for Bath Township was dropped this year after some controversy in 1970 in whfch township officials expressed displeasure at the factor rate. They had been assessed a 1.015 factor,

Clinton County's real property was valued at $136,429,116 and personal property was valued at $23,372,893.

DeWitt Township was valued the highest set at 19.2976 percent of the total county valuation. The township's total equalized valuation was set at $30,837,950.

Next in line was St. Johns' with a figure of $22,525,300 (assessed) and $25,526,182 (equalized). It was 15,9736 percent of the total equalized valuation.

ST. JOHNS—"Young man, you are hereby sentenced to three days in jail to be suspended upon completion of- three days on the county work detail."

A number of young men have received this type of sentence recently from District Court Judge Roland Duguay, as a new type of punishment for minor crimes committed in the county.

Judge Duguay thinks that this type of sentence i s more productive and will accomplish more than having a young man spend the time sitting in jail.

*There is no guarantee that a person will get the work detail instead of jail," he said. "It all depends on the type of offense he has committed, whether it is his first and the overall attitude of the offender,"

After they are sentenced they must report each morning to one of the county workers, who will be their supervisor for the day. The work detail consists of cleaning up public works such as the court house grounds, county parks, the juvenile home and different cemeteries. "These are areas that need extra work and so far they have done an excellent job of cleaning them up", he said.

MANY OF THE COUNTY employees have volunteered extra time to supervise men

DEWITT TWP.—Voters maybe confused about the special election for fire and police mlllage to be held May 17, said Donna Syverson, Township Clerk.

"The ballot asks for an increase in the mlllage, but it's not an increase, it 's a continuation of the present one

on the weekends and after work. Judge Duguay has put in a number of hours as supervisor on the weekend.

"I would like to expand this program. Many of our young offenders shouldn't be sent to jail, but need to be punished and this, I believe, is the best way. If we could get volunteers from the residents of the county to help me with this pro-

to

gram we could greatly expand it," he said. Judge Duguay said that not only does

this program save the county money, $10 to $15 a day for each man, but it is accomplishing something worthwhile by cleaning up neglected areas in the county.

The offender must report each day to work. If they don't or goof offwhileworking, they finish the rest of their sentence in the county jail.

Judge Duguay said that if anyone is interested in helping with the program they should contact the District Court or R.G. Becher, County* Building Superintendent.

Editor's note—This article by St. Johns school Supt. Earl Lancaster Is the first in a series prepared by school officials outlining the proposed millage vote June 14,

Citizens interested in expressing their views on the present and future educational system in St. Johns are encouraged to write to the Clinton County News in order that all viewpoints may be presented to the voters. As in other letters to the editor, names may be withheld upon written r e quest.

IN APRIL Gov. Mllliken presented an Educational Reform package to the Michigan Legislature which if adopted would re quire a complete change in the method" of financing Public Education.

The necessity for the reform is simply that school districts under

the present method of taxatlonare running out of money. Historically, the financial support for the operation of Public Schools has come from local property taxes.

Because of problems arising from high property taxation the Legislature enacted in 1932 the so-called 15-mlll limitation act wh ich required that county government, townsh ips , and schools split the 15 mills as determined by a allocation board in each county.

For some years the combination of allocated millage and state aid was adequate to operate most schools in the state. However, as the demands by people for better programs of education, more transportation, and because^ of the increase in enrollment, t he allocated t ax monies were not adequate. This resulted in districts voting additional millage in order to oper-

ate their schools. Then, in 1965 the Legislature

passed the Public Employment Relations Act which gave public employees the right to bargain. During the past five years this has resulted in improved salaries for teachers and other personnel which further aggravated thefin-ancial problem.

Although the situation varies from district to district according to the State Equalized Valuation of the district, State Aid and the property tax have almost shared equally in furnishing funds to operate schools. As the property taxes have been increased by local vote, State Aid has increased also.

HOWEVER, THE current problem is that for next year the Legislature will not i n c r e a s e state aid, which with inflation continuing will mean that school boards will need to go back to their people and ask for additional millage to operate the program as it has been operated.

For several years now, the Michigan Association of School Boards, and the Michigan Association of School Adrrfinistra-tors have recognized that the method of financing the opera-i tion of schools by Property Tax is wrong.

Both organizations have lobbied vigorously to have the State, through an increased income tax, accept more responsibility for financing schools.

Because of this influence the Legislature last year passed the Spencer-Ryan State Aid Act for the 1971-72 School Year. This Act, if put into operation, would have allowed^ schobl districts to BpTsrtte" with a lower' property tax levy because1 of increased state aid. However, the implementation of the Act would have required more funds from the State which would have required an increase in the State Income Tax. The Legislature has not seen fit to fund the Spencer-Ryan aid package so for all intentandpur-Dose it is now dead.

It is because of all of these factors that the schools of Michigan are facing the present crisis. In his presentation to the Legislature of the Education Reform Package, the Governor noted these facts:

— Only five of the 25 r e quests for higher property taxes put to Michigan voters in various | school systems in the first three months of 1971 were approved. In addition, voters rejected 36 of the 91 requests to continue the property tax rate at its present level.

— 155 of the school systems which responded to a survey by the Michigan Association of School Administrators report they are now operating with a deficit budget, and 281 school systems said they are now or will be next year in 'serious financial trouble.'

— 4,480 teachers in 78 Michigan school systems have already been told they won't have jobs next year, and 248 schooladmin-istrators have been warned they might not have positions either.

— 1,908 teachers were laid off during the current school year in 98 school systems. ' — The crisis In education is

still with us," Gov.Millikensaid, "and it has grown worse."

— "Still, there are many people in Michigan who do not realize that public education is on the verge of financial collapse.

THE GOVERNOR'S program would in effect eliminate the property tax entirely for the operation of schools. To obtain the funds lost by the elimination of property tax would require an additional 2,3 per cent in personal, income tax plus a Value Added Tax on Industry.

There are certain to be many d i s a g r e e m e n t s as to these changes. However, even if this program, or a compromise is adopted by the Legislature, it will require a referendum in the Fall of 1971 and will take at least a year to put Into effect.This means that there will be no relief until the school year 1972-73.

The immediate problem then which faces mostMtchiganSchool districts is:

Even though relief is possible by 1972-73, how can schools be

operated at their present level through the year 1971-72?

There seem to be several a l ternatives.

—The people of each district need to assess their own schools and then decide at election time whether or not they wish to support for one year the program they have had for the past years.

— If they don't wish to support the total program there should be some agreement as to what should be cut out of the program.

Representing the a g e n c i e s were State Police Trooper, Bruce Smith, County Sheriff deputy, Tony Hufnagel and St. Johns Police Officer, Lyle French.

Humphrey said that one of the main objectives of the discussion was to establish good relations between the students and police and to instill favorable attitudes in the students towardi the police.

"We have worked with all aspects of law enforcement. Last week we held a mock trial and went through the complete procedure. We have had many discussions on issues that are important to the s tu d e n ts,» Humphrey said. One of the Issues was the older kids unfavorable attitudes toward the police. *We thought It would be good to expose them now to the police so they can understand and appreciate them.* he said.

The Socia l Living course doesn't have a required text. The s t u d e n t s must do their own research on the different topics they cover in the class.

Ovid-El sle's Marauders look to be the ones to beat again this year in the annual Clinton County News track meet scheduled for Monday at the O-E oval.

The event, being resumed after a two -year delay, will feature teams from Ovid - Elsie, St. Johns, DeWltt, Bath', Fowler and Pewamo -Westphalia.

The preliminary events and field events will start at 5 p.m. Monday with the final running events set for 6:30 p.m.

Here are some event-by-event breakdowns on what could take

set place Monday.

Wednesday, May 5, 1971

CCN track meet Shot-put —The current record

of 49-8 1/2 could stand up, but several county throwers could reach the distance. The best bet here would be Larry Sandborn of DeWltt who has flipped the weight 49-5 against Bath and49-4 against Ovid-Elsie earlier this season. O-E's Dick Bates has zeroed In on the 48-foot mark this year and has shattered several school records with his tosses.

LONG JUMP

This event's record of 20-81/2 will almost certainly be broken. Keith Nelson of Ovid-Elsie has established marks of 21-3 1/2. 21-2 1/2 and 20-9 this'season, but Coach John Oberlln is worried.

"Keith has a hip pointer and if he hurts, I won't use him," Oberlln said. That could leave the door open for DeWltt seniqr John Black who has had Jumps of more than 20-feet.

"He's looking forward to the meet," commented P a n t h e r coach Evart Stevens. "Here lie

Ovid-Elsie's Dick Bates, Keith Nelson and Cai Woodard.

jumps off an asphalt board, but he. likes the pit better; like they have at Ovld-Elsle. He should give them arunfor their money,*,

Bath's Dave Burleigh has'had leaps of about 19-feet this year and could stretch that marktobe a gold medal contender.

P e w a m o - Westphalia's Mike Thelen could be another contender who has averaged over 18-feet and has had a leap of 19-6 in 1971 competition.

HIGH JUMP

The record here,is 5-9 and this is another area where new marks could be set, but few of the competitors have been close to that mark all' season. Marauder senior Cal woodard has had jumps of 5-4 against St. Johns and DeWitt, but best bet to shatter the mark would go to Bath's Paul Stoll. He has had a fine jump 5-8 against DeWltt earlier In the season and could put the record away for the Bees. St, Johns Redwing Steve Mead has also jumped 5-4 and could be a facto r in1 the first three place

.finishers. The Bees have depth in' this

event with 6-4 Fritz Ordlway topping the 5-6 Jump* mark. They also boast Don Parkey> 6-0 senior, who has also jumped to the 5-6 mark.

POLE'VAULT

The pole vault mark established in 1968 might be a little t oughe r to crack this t i m e

• around, Jim Bouts of DeWltt set the record that year with a flight of 11-10 1/2.

So far, O-E's Glen Benslnger looks to be the closest to that mark with a fine effort of 11-6. Others in the running to take first place honors are Bath's Brad Shalbly at 11-0 and Redwing Terry Ruppuhn wit h an effort of 10-6.

880 RELAY

Best time in the county meet to date in this event was set in 1968 byDeWitt'steamwithatime of 1:34.7.

The Ovid-Elsie entry of Gordy1

Baker, Dan Bowles, Keith Nelson and Jim Stewart have run the event in 1:35.9 and could put it all together for a new record. DeWitt's best time of 1:39.8 would be good enough for a second and possibly a first if O-E's Nelson is sidelined during the meet. DeWitt's team consists of John Black, Jim Ashley, Randy Pitts and Steve Tews.

In other events, St. Johns Rick Flegel should be able to runaway from- the pack in the two-mile run. He already as set a mark of 10:23 which would shatter the meet record by about 27 seconds. That mark, 10:58.8, was set in 1968.

Several of the teams, including Pewamo-Westphalia, St. Johns and Bath have a number of sophomores and juniors on

their squads which would put them about a year away from sweeping most of the county meet events.

The coaches have all^ agreed on one thing, however. The county meet should become a necessity in fosteringalargerfollowlngfpr the spring sport.

"The meet Is an opportunity for six schools in the county to get together," O-E's John Oberlln said. *we usually run against bigger schools, but we are pretty much rural. The meet used to be with small schools and it was a good thing,"

Two first year coaches have expressed similar sentiments.

Evart Stevens of DeWltt said he thinks it is a good idea to hold a county event. MWe especially have a strong competition with Bath," he said inpro-moting the meet.

He said he wants his team to have another'shot at Ovid-Elsie and Bath, and the meet was the

Panthers club visitors DeWITT—After a slow start,

the Panthers' baseball team came through with three resounding victories last week.

The Panthers, 5-4 overall and 4-0 in the Central Michigan Athletic Confe rence swept pass Laingsburg 21-5, Webberville27 -3 , and Pewamo-Westphalia8-7.

DeWltt pitcher, Pat Botke and catcher, Mike Cole held Laingsburg to only six hits in the first two innings allowing five runs and then shutting them out for the last five.

The Panthers scored 21, runs 21 hits, nine of the runs In the first inning.

W e b b e r v i l l e never had a chance afte r the first inning, when they scored three runs. They spelled their own doom committing 23 errors and allowing DeWltt 27 runs.

Panther pitcher Ron Wilcox kept Webberville down to only six hits.

In the last contest of the week against Pewamo-Westphalia, the Panthers held off a late Pirate rally to secure a close win, 8-7.

Botke, who is a DeWltt junior, allowed nine hits. DeWittled 8-0 going into the sixth inning when P-W staged a comeback scoring three runs In the sixth and four in the seventh to lose by one run.

Wilcox leads the team with the highest batting average, bitting 21 -out of 33 for a .636. Cole and Roger wardell each are batting .500, followed closely by Mike Moody" with a .471 aver-

COACH TOM ISENHART said that the team started the season slow, because he was experimenting with all the players to see whatposition they would work at best, "We are pretty well organized now, and we are getting better with each game," he said, "Most of the team is made up of Juniors, so we should have a real good team next year."

The PanthersplayedatPotter-vllle Monday and will play Fowler at home Thursday.

He said that the county meet would provide better competition than the Central Michigan league features. "There are only oneor two in that league that can provide strong competition." •

Stevens predicted Ovid-Elsie would dominate many of the events with Bath and DeWitt

rounding out the top three.!-P-W's Doug Ktlbourne, in his

first year at the Pirate stronghold, said he was highly interested in the meet. He added that it was a good way to ,take'?a close look at other êar-by schools and give his team a bet- > ter perspective of their efforts.

ST. JOHNS—The proposed junk car program was unanimously approved by the Clinton County Board of Commissioners Tuesday.

Duane Chamberlain, chairman of the Land Use committee, recommended the action after checking on insurance and

.Responsibilities :oiith,e county. -••'" e~— A -':

The"ônmg" office "was""designated .as • headquarters for the program. As soon as there is more information pertaining to time • and. place where the car crusher will be located the public will be notified. K e e p Michigan Beautiful, Inc. Clinton Chapter will be coordinating the program with the zoning office.

In other action: The commissioners voted 7-4 against

Withdrawing from the Mid-Michigan District Health Department.

Walter Nobis, longtime critic of the program, favored Clinton having its own department. He charged that the present program is inadequate in many of its services and is not benefiting the county.

Commissioners voting in favor of keeping

the program, stated that they needed more time to study the present program before they will take any action concerning withdrawing from it.

A number of commissioners questioned the feasibility of financing a county program. Presently the county pays $43,000 a year

>as:'its1 share of thefdepartment's cost, ,? r>m.I ''!}fp^ H M—--*- ———--— «•—•—• Ai- motion was imade and passed for

officials and full-time employees to receive Blue Cross coverage paid for by the county beginning July 1. The insurance is in lieu of salary increases for this year and next

Nobis who proposed the insurance coverage said that about 55 may be'interested in the program which would cost the county $5,808 for the rest of the year.

The commissioners anticipate some controversy because some employees will not want the insurance. They will not receive raises if they don't take the insurance.

The commissioners plan to expand the program next January to include the entire family.

Dear friends, M a n y c l e r g y m e n and

doctors, while attending the dying, have reported seeing the apparition of the spirit leaving the body at death. Many survivors have reported the momentary appearance of .the spirit of a loved one at

_the„moment...of death.Jf-the]se marvels were more generally known, the doubting Thomas would find greater conviction in the resurrection of Christ arid of our own promised r e s urrection which we celebrate this glorious Easter Season.

Mrs. H. W. Lundy, president, conducted the business meeting during Which the announcement was made that May 2 to 9 has been proclaimed as National. Music Week.

The theme of the program for the day was "The Modern Use of the Classic Style."

'"Air on the G String," "Jesu, joy of Man's Desiring," "Invention in F Major," and "Two Part Invention in F Major" were played in classic styleand then examples of the same numbers were presented as played on the Moog Synthesizer named after its inventor, Robert Moog.

Advantages of music played on

the Synthesizer were noted as (1) clarity of notes,arid (2) crlsp-ness and brlghtnessof sound.The Swingle Singers^ were noted as outstanding musicians who give credit to Bach for their honest imitations, of- His music.

Mrs. RichardAinstutz,pianis.t( played the. Warsaw' Concerto. Mrs. Conrad Seinv accompanied by Mrs, Duane Davis; sang three numbers from the modern composer; Richard Hageman. The numbers were "At the Well," "The Donkey," and "Do Not Go My Love."

* IN MEMORIAM

•iln memory of Ambrose Martin who died 2 years ago May 3.

What we would give if we could say,

"Hello Dad" in the sameoldway, To hear your voice and see

your smile. And sit and chat with youawhile,

So many times you seem so near.

Your gentle voice we seem to hear,

Though often with tears our eyes do fill,

We trust in God, it was his will. His family.

1-lp

Derwood S. Fletcher, May 11, 1969.

He is gone, but not forgotten, And as dawns another year,

In our lonely hours of thinking Thoughts of him are always near

Days of sadness will come o'er us,

Friends may think the wound is healed,

But they little know the sorrow, That lies within the heart con

cealed. The family of Derwood Fletcher.

1-lp

In loving memory of H e n r y Nemetz Sr., who passed away, one year ago May 7, 1970.

We watched him suffer day by day

It caused us bitter grief, To see him slowly fade away,

and could not get relief. God saw the road was very

rough The hill too steep to climb

He gently closed his weary .eyes and whispered,

"Peace be Thine." —Wife Hene "Nemetz, children and grandchildren and greatgrandchildren. 1-lp

We didn't have one. He didn't h a v e one. He was too "darned busy* to take one then, So...we ad there's a picture of how Pohl Oil looks today, and one of how it looked 15 years ago„.with one slight exception. F o r s o m e strange reason the photo of Pohl Oil in 1956 shows a 1968 pickup.

THE ST. JOHNS Co-op's Stew Watt has been giving us a bad time not only about our weight but now our working hours. For e x a m p l e he called the other morning before 9 and said...that he was on his way to lunch.

Anyway Stew did tell us that Stan Whitlock and Mrs. Bruce Mehney of St. Johns were the' winners of the Alpine picnic jug in the Saturday drawing. The Zebco rod and reel wds won by Pete Buck of St, Johns.

The drawings are a part of the Co-op's spring sale and all you have to do is register. Stop in anytime but if you get there around 9 a.m. remember S t e w works such long hours.,.and gets up so early that he'll probably be at lunch.

MSU Correspondent

EAST LANSING -TheListen-ing Ear is a crisis intervention center at 547 E. Grand River, in East Lansing, manned around the clock by volunteers of all ages and stations in life.

It's a place where people can go or call when they have a problem they need to talk out, when they're depressed, when they need advice, when they Just want

to spout off. When they need someone to care.

Tim Henning, a St. Johns junior in s o c i a l science at Michigan State University, and Thomas Alderman, an Ovid graduate from MSU with a bachelor's degree, have worked at the "Ear" since October. P e t e Allaby, a St. Johns junior in Justin Morrill College at MSU, was a recent trainee.

THE "EAR" VOLUNTEERS go through an extensive training session in which listening skills are learned and developed, empathy is practiced and stressed, and procedures are memorized.

Upon completion, trainees are expected to be able to'respond to callers, give and receive positive and negative feedback, and

deal with their own feelings.They must be open to constructive criticism and show a sense of responsibility and respect toward fellow workers,

Trainees must show competency in beine an emrwthptin Ho_ tener and in making referrals, and exhibit openness to learning. Theirs must be a non-judgmental attitude toward problems presented.

Above all, they must be committed to the "Ear", want to help people, and show they will be a contribution to the staff.

Henning, a trainer In the last session, said one of the basic things for a trainee is for him to know his own feelings and to be able to react with another person on a feeling level.

Most skills aren't difficult to learn, he said, if they have their heads together, touch with their feelings, are honest with them-s e lves and others, and can r e cognize their feelings. He said the "Ear" starts on the premise that everyone can be an "ear."

SINCE ALL THE work is done on a volunteer basis, the r e

wards are all personal, and each of the men said they found some.

Alderman said, "I feel it has taught me a lot about11 how to communicate with people and get outside myself to find out what's bothering others. That's a problem today — too many people are Inside themselves. If reflects why many people are so lonely.

"It all sounds so easy, but listening is a difficult thing to do. You have to let people knowyou're listening to them by saying things. It has really taught mea lotabout listening and the value of talking with a fellow man,

"It's fulfilling when you actually help someone. When they hang up saying'you've helped me' you can tell they're feeling a lot better. It's rewarding too just to do that.

"The way communities are set up today, we're more or less alienated frompeople.Evenatthe supermarket, it's businesslike and cold. People need something more intimate than that—feelings."

Allaby's feelings were similar. "I have better skills as a listener and I can better recognize and be in touch with myownfeel-ings. I have this tape recorder concept; I'm continually hearing

this tape telling me what to do, and I do it. Now I'm hearing a different tape. I have a new Way of looking at myself.

"I can deal with feelings now instead of trying to intellectual-ize everything. You know, when you deal with feelings instead of ideas, bonds between friends are strengthened. It has made me a more down - to -earth person, a human being. I'll never feel alone or empty like I did before."

Hennlng's attitude follows the same line. "Everything I feel about the "Ear" is really good toward it," he said. "I like to call it 'people ' work.' I think it may be a stepping board to what I'm going to do in the future.

"When I went into It, I didn't know how to deal with feelings. I'd rationalize, suppressing or ignoring my feelings. It was 20 years of self-destruction, I don't know where I'd be today if 1 hadn't gone into it. I think I'd be as skeptical as hell of people.

"Working at the "Ear" has made me think love is real and hate is something man invented. I feel kinder towards people, more devoted.'Before, I'd chuck if off, saying 'I don't have time.' I'm a different person, now."

Co. Westphalia

ST. JOHNS—In hopes of fostering more Interest In the activities of the Clinton County Soil Conservation District, and to promote soil and water conservation In Clinton County, the SCD board of directors in the fall of 1963 invited the five F u t u r e Farmer of America chapters in the county high schools to choose a representative to serve on a Junior Board of Directors.

Every chapter responded and elected a junior director. They met for the first time on the first Monday in December in 1963, and elected their officers.. The first officers were John Kowatch of Pewamo-Westphalia High School, Chairman; William Harden of Elsie High School, Vice-chairman; Terry Fickies of Ovid High School, Secretary. They planned to meet every month when the regular District Board met.

This first Board helped plan the annual FFA Conservation Exhibit Contest that is now held at every Annual Soil Conservation District meeting. They helped at the annual meeting and also helped : plan for the first FFA Land Judging Contest that was held in April of 1964.

The Junior Directors have been generally responsible for these activities ever since.

AT A JUNE BOARD meeting in 1968, the District Directors decided to enlarge the Junior Board of Directors by asking the 4-H Clubs of the County t o select four members to represent them on the board and they asked each FHA Chapter to elect a Junior Director. The Boy Scout Council and Girl Scout Council were alsottaskedJ,.to;select„j?jie member to be a Junior Director.

The enlarged Board has cooperated in planning for the 4-H annual L i t t e r Pick-Up - each spring and they helped register the folks who attended the last

Keep Michlgan.Beautlfulthatwas held at Rodney B. Wilson Jr . High School in April.

The Junior Directors plan to become more involved in the efforts to improve the environment in Clinton County.

Hosting the event were the couple's children, Mr. and Mrs. Earl W. Hall of Lansing, Mr. and Mrs. Nell W. Hall of Colony Road and Mrs. Maxlne Warren of Owosso.

"The Privileged Church-Are We* was the sermon topic Sunday at the Church of Christ, Scripture reading was taken from Revelation 3:7-13 and special music was presented by the adult choir. Greeters for the day were Mr. and Mrs. Herm Baese.

Mr. andMrs.JayLeeGoodrich are the parents of a baby girl, Ruth Ann. born April 25 at Owosso Memorial Hospital. MOTHER-DAUGHTER TEA* SCHEDULED

Women's. Fellowship of the Church of Christ will sponsor a Mother-Daughter Tea Monday evening, May 3 at the Church of Christ. Mrs. Wilma Schaffer, editor of "The Christian Mother" from Cincinnati, Ohio will be the speaker for the evening, Monday, May 3 at 7 p.m. at the Church of Christ.

Mr. and Mrs, Lloyd Uhrick, Mr. and Mrs. James Ecenbarger and Robert were callers at the homes of Max Hott, Elmore Randolph" and James Burnham over the weekend.

Lynn Richards, Mary Patton, Jill Guernsey and Joyce Fedewa spent Saturday night and Sunday with Con! Burnham,

perlence Program, states that the program's main concern is to help students become motivated and interested in their education and work experience.

The students who are involved in the program are enrolled in specific courses designed to help them on their Jobs, Local businesses volunteer to help train the studentsonapart-timebasis.

Miller and other high school teachers work with the students on a one-to-one basis in areas of remedial reading, trade skills, job responsibilities and functions.

"Many of the students enrolled in this program are potential drop-outs or have disadvantages which could hinder them from' employment in the future. We work with the students very closely with individual conferences, talks with their parents and meetings with the local bus-lnesses," he said.

By working closely with the students, Miller can help the

students decide on their goals and directions.. *We attempt to place the students In areas of their own choice. This has one distinct advantage, they find out what areas they are or are not interested in."

Miller said that the coordinated efforts of the school and business give the student the chance to learn responsibilities, pride and the possibility of a future trade.

He said that 17 out of the 20 students in the program are employed. "They hold a variety

of Jobs from machinist apprentice to grocery clerks. Not only does this program give them the chance to learn about business but also a chance to earn money," he said.

When asked about the success of the program, Miller stated, "We are doing very well. Whenever you deal with a program where the students are having learning difficulties or are disadvantaged in any way, you are never going to have 100 percent

success ratio. If your.tJo,-then you're not digging deep&hoUgh^

This is Miller's flrlsfc year of teaching. He was 'graduated from Michigan State University last year with a degree In Vo--catlpnal Education. He and his wife, Brenda, live in Holt, "

"" *One of the main advantage^ of this program;*'- heYJ3'aidi*i6 that we can work closely witii students who .need thq help.. We guide the students, bul.&iey^seit their goals and directions. The objectives of the program ware broad, they can learn Just how to obtain a job or they caiactyiajly learn a t r ade / ' . ) ' "" ' - • rr. ':

The program, which runs year round, will be expanding, tpînt clude working, with drop-outs to get them back in school and to Work through the co-op program,

*I believe that this: is ;a very good program. ,By: dealing with each student individually,„we. can set up a'specif'ic-prograWthat will be beneficial /tcv him personally."

ST. LOTJIS, MO.— A combination of chemical her

bicides may be the answer td tough weed problems that farme d ..continually face. The one-two punch of two chemicals may give effective weed c o n t r o l , where a single herbicide may allow more weeds of escape.

Advantages of combining a proven grass killer withabroad-leaf weed-control chemical include: broader spectrum of control, improved performance with a. variety of weather and soil conditions, reduction of crop In-Jury, less carryover ofherbicide residue and increased flexibility In rotations. '

A warning: use only registered combinations of herbicides approved for your area and ap

proved for the crop you'll use it on. YOU are responsible for any illegal chemical residues that may result...so planning is the key.

One weed growing its way into, many corn areas is fallpanicum. But combinations, suchas'Lasso, Ramrod or Sutan herbicides with atrazine, do an excellent job of controlling fall panicum as well as most other grasses and broad-leaf weeds.

Lesg shading of the soil because of earlier planting of corn, use of shorter, 'upright-leaved corn hybrids, minimum tillage, and tolerance to some herbicides seem to have helped the spread of fall panicum, says Ken Frost , M o n s a n t o weed control specialist. Fall panicum has spread

quite rapidly across the Corn Belt the last few years and is causing considerable reduction in yields vand profits where left uncontrolled, especially in corn.

Frost says in soybeans the weed is not as troublesome... because of more Intense shading and often later tillage than with corn. Here, of course, Lasso or Treflan will handle the pest.

Frost recommends broadcasting apreemergence application of Lasso at the rate of 2 to 3 quarts per acre for most situations on either corn or soybeans fields. But If hard to kill •broadleaf weeds are-also a problem in your corn, he suggests using a combination of 2 to 3 quarts of Lasso and 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 lbs. of atrazine 80W.

There are many reasons for using chemical combinations... and farmers no doubt will find new and varied uses of this new approach.

But, for best results, anticipate the weed problem you expect to have, choose herbicides wisely, follow label directions, and try some of the combinations when you want to add more flexibility to your weed-control program.

There's a Grand Champion among weed killers too! Yes sir, It's... Lasso® plus atrazine tank mix

Now corn growers can control just about every grass and broad-leaf you can think of. A tank mixture of liquid Lasso and atrazine controls the tough grasses like the Foxtails, Crabgrass and Fall Panicum. At the same time, yield-cutting broadleafs such as Lambsquarters, Buttonweed, Annual Morningglory and Smartweed.

Lasso plus atrazine is safe to your corn; carryover is no problem. Apply it band or broadcast, prepiant incorporated*or at planting time. Apply it with water or in fertilizer solutions. Lasso plus atrazine is effective under a wide range of weather conditions-wet or dry—it gets the job done. So for broader spectrum weed control this year, use the grand champion in your corn—Lasso plus atrazine.

For tank mix instructions about Lasso plus atrazine see your Farm Chemical Supplier now.

Clinton County 4-H'ers have gone over the top In raising funds for the National 4-H Center Expansion Drive in Washington, D.C. A check for $1,526.18 was mailed April 30 to Michigan State University to cover the County quota of $1,501.00.

The quota was based upon the 1969 4-H enrollment of 1501 youth at the rate of $1.00 per m e m b e r . Twenty-six c l u b s reached their quota of $1,00 per member. The $29.00 contribution from the Riverside Riders put the County over the top of the quota.

Other club .contributions lately included Knit N Stitch-$5.00 and Spring Valley with $4.00. Although the 4-H'ers have topped their quota, any other contribution from clubs will be forwarded to the Center Drive. Sixteen other 4-H clubs made contributions but did not reach their club quota.

Throughout the past two years the members have held a number of money making projects to raise their money. The campaign got a boost from the County 4-H Horse Show, the Pumpkin Contest, and a big boost from the 4-H Teen Leader Glass Project. .

' The -National 4-H Center is l o c a t e d at 7100 Connecticut Avenue, Washington, D.C, and covers 12 1/2 acres in suburban Chevy Chase. It opened in 1959 providing a training center for 4-H'ers and other Extension leaders.

The majority of the Center ' Programs are for professional

Extension personnel from state and county levels, adult volunteer 4-H leaders, and older 4-H members.

T h e 4-H Citizenship Short Course alone enrolls about 5,000 youth from 36 states annually. Clinton County has been sending 5 to 6 youth each year to participate in this citizenship program and this year they will be staying at the 4-H Center instead of the University of Maryland.

The National 4-H Center offers complete conference facilities. This is supplemented by the staff of the National 4-H Club Found a t i o n headquartered in the Center.

THE DOUBLE M 4-H 'Club will sponsor a 4-H Horse Show on Sunday,' May 16 at the fairgrounds inSt. Johns. Registration s tar ts at 12:30 p.m. and the show starts at 1:00 p.m. Jim Forester will be the show judge. There will be 19 classes including Halter, Horsemanship, Fitting and Showing, and Speed and Action events.

The entry fee is 75? for each class with 6 place rosettes given in each class. There will be 5 championship t r o p h y classes. During the show break there will be a Hackney demonstration. The public is invited to attend and there is no admission charge.

This will give the members a taste of competition for the new year a'nd show where they need more additional work.

Seven clubs were r e c o g -nized Monday eyening at the 4-H leaders meeting f o r being selected as an Honor Club for the winter program. The clubs are: Olive 4-H Projects, N i m b l e 1

Fingers, Elsie 4 Corners, Jolly K n i t t e r s , Bengal Community, Charlie's Gang, and H a p p y Hustlers. The clubs scored a minimum of 800 or more points based upon their participation in local and county-wide 4-H activities.

10,980 POUNDS .of glass were taken to Charlotte Friday for recycling. This was only part of the glass that was collected on t h e roadside cleanup project. There are approximately another ,2,000 pounds that will be taken next week with the glass collected May 1 from t h e . monthly collection.

The total of glass collectedand sent for recycling is now over 90,000 pounds with the total from Saturday making a total of over 100,000 pounds without any problem.

A NUMBER OF $B.OO scholarships will be available to some-youth to attend the State 4-H Exploration Day programs a t Michigan State University, June

, 29-July 1. If you know of some youth who might attend if he or she received the scholars h i p and would benefit by attending p l e a s e contact the County Extension Office for more information.

THE CLINTON COUNTY 4-H Talent Show May 7, 7:30 p.m„ at the St. Johns High School Auditorium will have 15 different acts for the public to see. The following clubs will have entries in the talent show: All Thumbs, Bengal Community, Green Clover Community, Eagleites, Olive 4-H Projects, Border 4-H, H a p p y

. Hustlers, and Nimble Fingers. The public is invited to attend

and there is no admission charge, 5 entries will be selected to represent the-county at the Distr ict contest on August 4.

THE DOUBLE M 4-H Horse Club members discussed final plans for the horse show they plan to sponsor on May 16 at the St. Johns Fairgrounds. The show will s tar t at 1:00 p.m. w i t h Jim Forester doing the judging.

Doug Stanke will do a demonstration w i t h his registered Hackneys during the show intermission. The club held a work meeting May 1 with Bruce Haak trimming and s h o e i n g their horses. The members are also planning a trail ride about the end of August

THE HAPPY HUSTLERS held their spring enrollment meeting, Patty Fox and Marian Kurncz told about their experiences the previous weekend on the Yankee Springs 4-H Award trip. Demonstrations were given by Mary Whitford on a *Bunny Salad* and Mark Smith on "The Proper Way to Sand Wood*.

Mrs. Albert Schaefer passed out the members certificates and announced the trip winners,

.CHARLIE'S GANG and t h e Willing Workers 4-H members picked up, litter along 61/2 miles of the County roadsides. At their last meeting the members were shown a movie called "Without Warning* exploring a number of careers available in the field of health care. Summer signup

nsects control led best pest's natural enemy

RICHARD J. SAUER MSU Extension Entomology

Specialist

One of the oddest methods of controlling insect and related pests is by using their natural

• enemies - parasites, predators and disease organisms. Man has known for many centuries that insects attacking crops were In turn attacked by many kinds, of , natural enemies that, at times and in certain places, exerted a --» high degree of control over the ^ pests. ,

Not until almost ZOO years ago, however, were deliberate, attempts Initiated to use these enemies in control activities, either by introducing new ones' into the environment of a pest or by increasing the effectiveness of species already present.

The first noteworthy success occurred in California in 1888. This deliberate use of natural enemies for pest control Is now known as biological control.

The last decade has seen increased attention In theAmerican scientific community turned towards the control of insect pests by parasites, predators and other antagonistic life forms. One reason is the increasing resistance o f many serious* insect pests to the chemical controls. In addition, interest in practical biological controls Is now becoming fairly widespread among the more informed public.

This interest is the result of a paradox created by the need to control Insect pests and the need to protect the environment from possible insecticide pollution. It can be said right away that in a number-of cases biological control has met with undoubted success, and been very spectacular.

This usually was not because the entomologists who put the technique into operation knew all the details of the biology of parasite and host - this would be pretty well impossible. However, they had carried out sufficient research to minimize the hazards and increase the probability of success."

They at least knew that the parasite or predator was effective and would, probably be capable of adjusting to the new environment quite readily. Even so, the introductions were carefully organized, controlled and evaluated.

SEVERAL SERIOUS problems; however, have resulted from what appeared to the public to be a simple yet completely Bate "trial and error" approach. For example, interested laymen oram-ateur scientists* after hearing' about the spectacular success with ladybird beetles In California -orchards, have attempted to Introduce ladybirds on their own - into a small farm or a backyard garden. *

The results have been largely insignificant and sometimes even disastrous. In at least one casei the Introduced ladybirds contained the eggs or larvae of parasites that attack, these beetles*

Upon emerging from the introduced ladybird beetles the parasites found the native ladybirds to their liking and proceeded to decimate the local ladybird beetle population.

T h i s not only increased the severity of the pest problem, by reducing the native natural control effects, but also thwarted any.j3iological control efforts- .by research scientists.

Some well-meaning but uninformed individuals have promoted the sale of "beneficial* Insects such as ladybird beetles and preying mantlds for controlling backyard and garden insect pests. In a few cases, withprop-er timing, suitable weather and the "right" insect causing', the problem, releasing ladybirds or mantids has been helpful.

In most cases, however, the effects are insignificant, not changing the pest problems originally present. In yet other cases, like the one cited above, the effects are disastrous, and seriously undermine any worthy attempts by scientists to make progress in biological,control.

contest winners By ORVTLLE BEACHLER,

Soil Conservation Technician U.S. Soil'Conservation Service,

Advisor

The District- Directors of the Clinton County soil Conservation District at a monthly board meeting early in 1964 decided to sponsor a Land Judging Contest for the FFA Chapters in the high schools of Clinton County. They decided to award a cup trophy to the winning chapter and a desk pen set to the individual winner.

The cup was to be a rotating trophy with the winning chapter's name engraved on the cup each year.

In 1964, the first Land Judging Contest was held on the Alden Livingston farm in Greenbush Township. The Ovid High School Chapter won this first contest and Don Miller of the Pewamo-Westphalia Chapter was the high individual winner.

In 1965, the Contest was held ' on the Ron and Jack Miller farm in Ovid Township. The Elsie FFA Chapter was the winner that year and went on to tie for first place In the State Land Judging

LINE'INSECTS shipped into or within Michigan must be shipped under a permit. If you are seriously considering purchasing live insects for biological control attempts, check with the supplier to make sure that he has such a permit.

The permits are issued by the Plant Industry Division of the Michigan Department of Agriculture. '

In time, biological control can eventually, help solve the paradox between the need to control insect pests and the equally, important need to protect the environment. Entomologists at Michigan State University realize jhe limitations of biological control efforts and are striving to attain a proper balance of natural and artificial insect controls. In cases where biological control has shown potential in Michigan, you can obtain information through appropriate channels of the Information Services of Michigan State University.

For example, you may obtain a copy of The Biological Control Story, Bulletin SIA-IS, by writing to; MSU Bulletin Office, P,0. Box 231, East Lansing, Michigan 48823.

Contest. Jim Rivest, of the Elsie Chapter, was the individual winner.

The 1966 contest was held on the Roston Mehney farm in Bingham Township and the Pewamo-Westphalia Chapter was the winner. The high individual that year was Bernie Simon of Pewamo-Westphalia,

In 1967, the Walter Thelen Farm in * Westphalia Township

, was selected as the site for the Land Judging Contest. The Chapter from the new OvidÊlsie High School won the trophy that year and the high individual winner was Tom Beagle of the Bath High School FFA.

THE 1968 CONTEST was held at the Soil Conservations' Plant Materials Center at Rose Lake in Bath Township, The Ovid-Elsie Chapter again won possession of the trophy for another year and Carter Moore of the Ovid-Elsie Chapter was the individual winner.

The boys were also given a tour of the Plant Materials

" Center, and the various experi-' mental plantings were explained

to them. The 1970 Contest was won for

the second year in a row by the St. Johns High School FFA Chapter. Mike Pettigrew of the St. Johns Chapter was the individual winner of the contest which was held on the Francis Brya farm on County Farm Road in Olive Township,

Gwyn Nethaway of the Ovid-Elsle Chapter made history in the 1971 Contest held on the William Mayers farm on Walker Road In Bengal Township. She is the first girl in the history of the land judging contest to be the high individual winner. She was also a member 0 f the Ovid-Elsie team that won the team trophy.

Uninsured fee hike

By SEN. WILLIAM S. BALLENGER

Almost lost in the furor over the $4 million fund transfer from the Uninsured Motorists' fund to the general fund to meet the state's welfare payroll last week was the fact that, starting next year, uninsured motorists will have to pay $10 more when they get their license plates.

The bill which authorized transferring the $45 million to

the general fund provided for an increase from $3 to $4 a year which persons registering an uninsured motor vehicle must pay annually before they can obtain their licenses.

' In addition, the bill also eliminated—except in cases of financial emergency—the payment of the $1 fee by insured motorists.

The measure provides that unless the fund's reserves fall below a prescribed level of the $1 annual fee shall be waived.

This is expected to remove one of the most controversial features of the uninsured motorists law. People who pay from $100 to $200 or $300 for their car insurance complain bitterly that they have to pay the $1 fee to build up the fund to pay claims that should be charged wholly to those who do not carry insurance.

Many insured motorists complain to their legislators that all drivers should be forced to buy liability insurance. This demand has been resisted, however, because if insurance companies were forced to insure all bad motorists, premiums "would have to be raised sharply—thereby hitting the good drivers, too.

As finally passed, the bill provides that the $45 million borrowed by the state's general fund is to be paid back over a five-year period, starting in 1973, at the rate of $9 million a year.

The stumbling block over whether the state should have to pay interest on its own money was resolved by a provision in the bill' which ordered that interest should be paid to the motor vehicle fund but that the rate of interest is to be determined by the Legislature two years from now.

When that time comes, there may be another hassle but the

provision atleastpermittedquick transfer of the urgently needed funds now.

Borrowing of this money recalls the somewhat similar situation In 1959 when about $44 million in veterans trust fund bonds were liquidated and turned over to the general fund to help meet the state payroll.

It is interesting to note that a Republican-controlled Legislature at that time did not require that interest be paid on the borrowed money. G. Mennen Williams, a Democrat, was in the Governor's chair at the time.

In the present fiscal emergency , It was the insistence of House Democrats and Secretary of State Richard H, Austin that state taxpayers should pay inter

est on the money borrowed from the Uninsured Motorists' fund.

Successful transfer of the motorists' fund alleviated a fiscal crisis but there are indications that more such crises may be ahead in the next few months.

The state treasury already Is behind in Its payments on the February and April school aid allotments, having paid only part of the full payments.

State Treasurer Allison Green already Is worrying about where the money will come from to pay the $100 million school aid allotment for June, and Social Serv-•ices Director R. BernardHouston figures from $12 million to $25 million more will be needed to meet welfare obligations before the end of the fiscal year June 30.

•:•:

I have to live with myself, and so I want to be fit for myself to know. I want to be able, as days go by, Always to look myself straight in the eye. I don't want to stand, with the setting sun And hate myself for the things I've done.

I don't want to keep on a closet shelf A lot of secrets about myself, And fool myself, as I come and go, Into thinking that nobody else will know The kind of person I really am; I don't want to dress up myself in sham.

I want to go out with my head erect, I want to deserve all men's respect; But here in the struggle for fame and wealth, I want to be able to like myself. I don't want to look at myself and know That I'm bluster and bluff and empty show.

I never can hide myself from me; I see what others may never see; I know what others may never know; I can never fool myself, and so, Whatever happens, I want to be Self respecting and conscience-free.

Sacrificial lamb By Tl/U YOUNKMAN

We appear to have, a new sacrificial lamb in our midst

The lamb, who usually thinks of himself, in more ferocious terms, is being sent on a wild goose chase throughout the Middle Eastern Arab nations, reportedly, to present some kind of peace overtures.

The actions, while noble in themselves, have come a bit too late. For many years the United States has been dealing in arms wit h botli the Arab states and Israel. This country had tried to keep enough peace to get the oil rights from the Arabs, and at the same time, quell the paranoia of Israel,* closed in by hostile neighbors.

We've sent statesmen, official notes and even troops into the Middle East in the past 15 years or so to ease the tensions ajld insure the feeling that the Americans qnly wanted to see peace in that part of the world.

Now, President Nixon has engaged in the same politics that trapped so many other "foreign minded" Presidents. Send an official of high rank into a troubled area so that the folks back home will think we're doing -something about the situation.

Ever read the "Ugly American?* There seems to be asim-ilar plot brewing here.

There have been dozens of protests already from anti-American groups in these nations and Rogers hasn't even departed yet The fireworks will really begin when he hits those airports. Rocks, bottles, burning autos, hangings-in effigy and possible assassination attempts have been part of the scene when any Western dignitaries arrive.

Several nations have been put under martial law for the visit— and others have betrun takine similar actions to forestall trouble.

But what will the visits accomplish. According to the President It will insure our goodwill td these people. How can national leaders of these states, riddled iîth domestiv strife, look favorably on a visit that could result in open civil war? , The reason for the President's fictions must be elsewhere. For example, if these incidents do occur—it would be a "real* justification to back Israel against the Arabs. With the Russians moving into Egypt by the thousands and the Egyptians giving aid to Syria and Saudi Arab'ia

it Is obvious we will not win friends and influence people there. We will succeed in enlarging the paranoia of Israeli leaders causing a crush on Washington to come to their aid.

It could mean an international force, including A m e r i c a n s , based in the Sinai as a buffer between Egypt and Israel. It could mean a U.N, -Korea type "Police Action against Egypt and/or Israel if hostilities erupt

It could ultimately mean another front for American sol- ' dlers to practice their art. With Russians in Egypt, there would be a chance of Americans vs. Russians, and a playground for World War HI.

At the very least, such a visit to Arab lands will not endear Americans to Arabs or Arabs to Israelis or Israelis- to 'Americans. In short, the visits are pointless.

We've stumbled along this path before with the humble excuse that we didn't quite knowliow to go about international problem solving. Thus-Vietnam. It will-be much harder to come up with a self-satisfying excuse this time around.

My first Inclination was to phone the director of the high school band and ask him to start a parade. Great occasions should be celebrated properly. I would push my roaring mower ((it's self-propelled, but only downhill) at the rear of the parade, among the Blue-Star Mothers,'so as to ndtarriS$n"o(it the drumVarid-'

parade, mostly because it would have required that the mower be switched off so the band director could hear me on the phone. It Is my policy to never turn off the mower on purpose.

It's like having a car with a bum battery. When I park the mower, I let the motor idle while the grass grows. I'd probably let the fool thing run from May .-until Septemberit•ftlel•ingîtl,

If some husbands had better dispositions some wives wouldn't get up with a grouch in the morning, v

no landing gear, but no chance. The mower regularly, gasps

and heaves and shudders and quits flat on its own with no help from mortal man. I suspect it is offended by my grass which smells from a lack of ch lo rophy l l . Clorets don't help.

ALL OF WHICH is my backhanded way of admitting I made a mistake last summer when, I bought t a lawn mower, the first one ^'veîêr.owned. And nqw It yf

'•'owns meT I haye $200 invested, t £ t in the miserable thing and,_ by "" God, I'm going to getmymoney's worth out of it if it costs me $2,000 in energy, aspirin and re- , pair bills.

In all fairness to the manufacturer, I should point t out it is not his fault It is mine. Machines and tools that work for everyone else never work for me. Screwdrivers fall apart in my hands.

The only time I ever pound a nail solidly is when I'm driving it into the wrong wall. Once I had to ask a stranger how to put the hood up on my own car. He was a patient at a mental Institution.

The other day it was time to get the mower out of winter storage and prepare it for an-other wonderful summer at the repair shop. I read the instruction manual.

The first thing I learned was that I had forgotten to prepare the stupid thing for storage last fall. But really, how do you know when to drain the gas and store it? One day you caihear the grass growing. The next day the storage shed is snowed in and there's no way I can get to that mower Without shoveling which Is against my religion.

So, ignoring past mistakes, I pressed ever onward. "Remove spark plug," the manual demanded. How? Thanks to the TV ads, I know what a sparkplug looks like.

But, I bloodied my knuckles and still couldn't twist the lousy thing loose. I'm sure some tool was needed by the manual didn't say which one and anyway owning tools is also against my religion.

"Spin the crankshaft,* the manual commanded. What's a crankshaft?

"TURN CARBURETOR adjust- * ing knob clockwise until needle seats lightly.'' Needle seats? Is that good grammar?

"Set sparkplug gap at ,p25 inch." The only measuring device in the house is a yardstick.

"Use a 3/8 inch d i a m e t e r dowel.* Now I know what I want for Christmas.

Where does an alien go to shoot himself?

I trucked the mower back to the store for resuscitation. In a few years it will be able to make the trip by itself, blindfolded^ When John the hardware man did business with me, he didn't lose a mower, he gained a dumbo-in-law.

To go Onward and Upward, "Just yank the starter cord once." You bet.

Philip I! • 1 ? ; :

By REV. HUGH BANNINGA

The second appearance of Philip in John's gospel comes at "the beginning, of the 6th chapter. We read:." •* .-

Slt.âs near the time,of Passover,, ^ great Jewish festival. Raising liis^ eyes and seeing a lar^V crowd'coming towards him, Jesus jsaid. to Philip, "Where are'wQ V? buy.bread to feed these people'?* This He said to test him; Jesus himself knew what he -meankto do; Philip replied', "For&« dollars •.would not buy enough bread for every one of them to.have .a* little,* .

In..this scene we see Philip who.has.a warm heart but a pessimistic head. Philip was one of ihose people who would like very.:<much to do something for others,", but in that particular situation-he did not see how he could/possibly do anything at all.

The reason for this was-that Philip lacked; a full understanding ?of God's t-power* He didn't-realize the kind of almightypow- • er God possessed. He had no idea what God .could do. Had he known about'God's full power, he could have foreseen what Jesus was about to do for that crowd of 5,000. But like so many of us, Philip lacked a'strong faith in .the;power.of• Almighty God.

4 traveler-in ari outlying rural cothmunity^was being shown the small, but beautiful church erected) at accost of much t i m e and sacrifice" on the-part of the

people, the traveler expressed his.; amazement "that the church building should be so'beautifully and. completely equipped with electric lights) because he knew that electricity was not available in that community;

When'' the: traveler told the people about this, they all told him they* were proud of their work even though there was no connection with the power. *

tioris. An unknown poet .says this about faith:,

"Faith is noL merely praying upon our knees at night;

Faith. is., not merely straying through the darkness into light;

Faith is not merely Waiting for glory that may be.

Faith is-the brave endeavor the splendid enterprise,

The -strength to serve, whatever conditions may arise.*

Helen Keller wrote.this about faith. "Dark as my .path may .seem to others, I, carry a magic light In my heart. Faith, the spiritual strong searchlight, illumines the way. , Although, sinister, doubts lurk in the shadow, I walk unafraid .toward the Enchanted Wood where the foliage is always green;

cess was simple. He would row until his palms were blistered. More than that, he never lost faith, never let his line lie listlessly.

Even when there was slight action, he would stick until the last minute. He argued that one more minute might bring the biggest catch of the day. Yes, he had a, simple rule.

But how often you and I fail because we lost faith! How often' we are unable to symbolically feed the 5,000, because we lacked sufficient faith. We are like Philip who had a warn heart but pessimistic head,

Next week we will see Philip who disliked responsibility and who had a questioning mind.

From the State House

Majority at 18

By REP. DICK ALLEN

Consider, as we will in the Legislature, the following proposals;

—A plan to remove from the property tax all support for the operations of schools.'

—A bill to allow cities to increase the amount of income tax levied on residents and non-residents.

—A program to change the distribution of state collected taxes tb local units of governmentfrom a pe r capita distribution to a formula based on local' tax effort. ,

—A proposal to allow townships to Increase taxes to support needed services. .

All of these proposals have behind them the need for more money at the local level and the desire of most people to get off the property tax as the primary source of local revenue. While they involve both schools and local government, I believe they are related and to attempt to solve one without considering the others would be a mistake.

For example, under present arrangements, the schools are allocated a portion of the constitutional 15 mills levied by the

county.- In our area this runs in the neighborhood of 8 to 8.5 mills. *

SHOULD WE, WHEN we remove the schools from dependence on this money, leave the constitutional limit at. 15 mills and. allow the other units—generally township and county—to take up the difference? I personally think not. If this happens, we will defeat the purpose of giving property tax relief. f

The. proposal to" revise the: method of distributing state collected revenues also has merit. T h e s e 1 taxes, principally the sales' tax. Income tax and the Intangibles tax,, are now shared with: local Units on a per capita basis. At the present time, one-

~ eighth of all sales tax collections, 17 per cent of all income tax collections and approximately one-fourth of the intangibles tax is distributed to local governmental units—exclusive of schools—in this manner.

But, is population the only basis which should be used? For example, the counties of Wayne, Oakland and Macomb contribute approximately 50 per cent of the total sales tax collected in the

Eighteen Year Old Majority. What's it all about?

First of all it has nothingtodo with 18 year old voting, a completely separate issue.

Majority • in this context, is used a little differently than our usual understanding of the term. It is opposite, or complementary, to minority., A person who is .no longer a minor has reached his majority.

In other words if this Bill passes, young people will cease to be minors on their 18thbirthday.

a family cannot.

THEY_ WOULD not need a guardian in probate or property cases and could receive Inheritances directly. At times present law withholds money from 18 to 21 when a young person may be in college and tin. need. Then it is given at 21, a time near graduation and a good job.

An 18 year old could admit himself to a mental institution. 18 to 21 Is a high stress age period. Mental health authorities tell us that many times the young

***'^r>

*L\ Pewamo

MRS. IRENE FOX Ph. 824-2021

.Estate, yet in the 1960 census— the basis for distribution until now—these counties have only 40 per cent of the state's population. Thus, a portion of their sales tax contribution is going to other counties, A similar disparity is generally true in the other taxes.

It should be pointed out that the distribution. of sales taxes Is provided for in the constitution and there Is no proposal to change this. But, the income and Intangibles taxes are. distributed under a state law, the revision of which we will be discussing this year.

While these problems may seem Independent and will be handled in separate bills by the Legislature, it is my opinion they are related and should be considered phases of the same problem. What we will be treating is an overall restructuring of the financial basis of all local governmental entities and the impact of these efforts on the local tax payer must be considered in total.

We can't take away revenues from some units—as well we might with revision of the Income tax distribution formula— without granting them authority to make up this loss from a different source. Nor can we afford to give all units blanket power to tax everyone and everything without proper safeguards for the taxpayer's pocketbook.

Resolving these problems will make for an interesting summer.

Eighteen year olds cquld also seek medical treatment and make binding decisions for or against treatment without parental consent. Occasionally young people today delay treatment they should have either because they are embarrassed to bring the problem up with their parents or perhaps because their par-. ents live in a different part of the country, .

The age of contractural capacity would be lowered to 18, An eighteen year old could buy a car himself and purchase his own insurance . . , provided of course the dealer and agent were willing. Presently parents are often put in a difficult position. They might recognize that their 20 year old with a job that requires driving needs an auto and insurance. However they might be reluctant to assume all the financial responsibilities con -nected with making the purchase in their name.

*• NOW, THE CONTROVERSIAL one! The legal drinking age would be 18, Do many of us believe 18 year olds drinking legally would be a problem? Certalnlyl On the other hand is drinking between 18 and 21 a problem under the present law? Absolutely! Alcohol violations are the leading cause of arrests In this age group. Also d r ink ing under present circumstances; contributes to many other problems, p e r h a p s including illegitimate pregnancies.'

Presently most drinking in this age group is done in cars and anyone who thinks this is not a problem has hot looked at insurance statistics or our littered roadsides.

The total Issue adds up to this. Are 18 year olds* ready to be thrown out of the nest and Is society ready to throw them out?
