The couple used to lve about four mles from each other and Verna remembers Bert comng down to her parents house to ask her out for ther frst date. Snce there were no telephones, the male was forced to personally ask the female for a date. It was at the Greenbush Grange that they hadmet.

2 - / 2 A CLINTON COUNTY NEWS, ST. JOHNS, MICHIGAN What s an ntermedate school dstrct? By Patrce Ilornak News Feature Wrter What s an ntermedate school dstrct and what does t do? Many people drve by the Clnton County Intermedate School Dstrct offce located about two mles south of St. Johns on US-27 and vew the buldng wthout relatng to t at au. They read about the school dstrct n the paper but dont know exactly what servces t performs. /Ths artcle wll attempt to answer some of those questons. In 1962, the former county school dstrcts were renamed ntermedate school dstrcts. The "ntermedate" name seemed more approprate and was a better descrpton of the nature of the school dstrct. In the state of Mchgan, there are 3 echelons n the admnstraton structure. Frst, there s the State Department of Educaton whch oversees the thousands of schools n the state. Secondly, there are the over 600 local school dstrcts throughout the state whch are drectly responsble for provdng an educaton to ther areas chldren. Lastly, there s the ntermedate school dstrct whch does exactly what ts name mples--t s an ntermedary between the local school dstrcts and the State Department of Educaton. More specfcally, the ntermedate school dstrct s responsble for the regulatory Larry Senwartzkoph-ntermedate superntendent and reportoralfunctons for the State Department of Educaton and provdes nformaton and educatonal servces for the local dstrct. Stated a lttle more smply, the ntermedate school dstrct handles much of the paperwork for the State Department of Educaton and offers some servces to all the schools n the AT KURTS APPLIANCE county whch would be too costly f each school offered the servces ndependently. Instead of askng all of the states 600^ school dstrcts to fle reports on number of students, school lunches, property transfers from one school dstrct to another, school budgets and pupl transportaton, the State Department of Educaton merely goes to the ntermedate school dstrct and has t do the reports. And, vce versa. If the State Department of Educaton wants to dssemnate some reports to the varous school dstrcts, t often goes through the ntermedate school dstrct whch s a drect lason between the two factons. / SERVICE ORIENTED The ntermedate school dstrct has also become servce orented snce ts ncepton In The mandatory specal educaton act, Publc Act 198, passed n 1971, requres all school dstrcts to provde an educaton to all handcapped chldren. For each school dstrct n the county to hre teachers and other staff members to teach the few students who fall nto ths category, t would be very expensve. Thus, the ntermedate school dstrct has taken over much of the responsblty of educatng these chldren. Durng the last school year, the speech ^nd language nstructors wll have seen and worked wth 500 to 600 students. The school psychologst evaluated about 300 to 400 students and 200 mentally handcapped students were educated n the classroom The ntermedate school dstrct also employs 4 school socal workers, a physcal therapst, an occupatonal therapst, a currcullum resource consultant, 3 teacher consultants for the mentally mpared, a teacher consultant for the learnng dsabled, 8 teachers of speech and language, a teacher for the homebound and hosptalzed and 4 school psychologsts. At the Walter Kyes School for mentally mpared chldren located behnd the ntermedate school dstrct offce, 3 teachers certfed to teach the mentally mpared and three full-tme ades are employed. Snce January the ntermedate school dstrct has been operatng a pre-school program for the handcapped chldren. The dstrct also hopes to become more nvolved wth the vocatonal-techncal programs of the communty. The man who coordnates the ntermedate school dstrct programs s Larry Schwartzkoph, superntendent of the ntermedate dstrct. Also drectng the program s the ntermedate dstrct board of educaton composed of Wendell Waggoner, presdent; Wllard Reed, vce-presdent; and members Walter Kyes, Lundsford Melvn and Gerald Wlber. The board meets n the ntermedate offces every thrd Monday of the month.

Two slands and an rregular shorelne add to the lakes scenc beauty.. He explans that the DNR expects the. parks near-mle of sandy beach and clean waters, to be a prme summertme attracton n md-mchgans "lakeless regon." The parks development began n 1966 under a DNR program desgned to. create lakes n areas where no natural waters exsted.

The stckers, costng $5 but good throughout the year, are requred by vstors at Mchgans 80 other state parks.

However, I am currently of.the opnon the dstortons and contortons we are gong through are more mmedately damagng and especally more dsadvantageous n the long run than addtonal taxes. Here are a few that concern me most. Some are currently beng nsttuted. Others are ntregal parts of the executve budget necessary to balance the next fscal year, STATE AID to educaton s beng held far below prevous legslatve commttments causng ncreased costs of local educaton to be met prmarly by ncreases n local property tax assessments and mllages.

Between the lnes wth Jm Edwards Detals lazy on Fort Hemy acton durng Revoluton n Old Northwest By the tme that hstorans got around to wrtng about the Revolutonary War conflcts between Northwest Indans and frontersmen at what s now Wheelng, W. Va., the facts had become somewhat obscured. Detals of the Indan seges of Fort Henry on the ste of Wheelng were eventually obtaned long after the events transpred from wtnesses whose hazy memores produced accounts that were exaggerated n some respects and confused n others. Thus, whle t appears certan that there was sgnfcant acton durng the war at ths settlement on the Oho Rver, just what t was that happened as well as the dates nvolved and the dentty of the partcpants are matters of less certanty. IT SEEMS that there were two -- and maybe three or more - assaults on Fort Henry, a stockade that was frst known as Fort Fncastle when t was erected n It was renamed to honor Vrgna Governor Patrck Henry n There s agreement that the frst of the attacks by red men on Fort Henry ctme n 1777, shortly after the murder of Shawnee Chef Cornstalk, hs son and two other Indans by rebel solders.

Several wtnesses assert that Andrew Zane, who was n a party that was surprsed by the Indans n 1777, leaped from a clff to get away. One sad the clff was 70 feet hgh; another was content to descrbe t as beng of "consderable heght." <>, J* * UK-,, Ths statue at a cemetery n Martns Ferry, Oho, honors Betty Zane, reportedly the herone of a sege on Fort Henry across the Oho Rver at what s now Wheelng, W.

SEVERAL HISTORIANS relate another mpressve leap - - ths one on horseback by Major Samuel McCulloch ~ but there s much speculaton about when, and f, t was made. In hs "Wnnng of the West/ Theodore Roosevelt says that McCulloch was rdng to the assstance of those beseged at Fort Henry when he was hemmed n-on the edge of "an almost Perpendcular-slope * ( darng feats of horsemanshp of whch we have any record.

Ths bdl, whch s now beng consdered by the House Judcary Commttee, would decrmnalze only the less fluence of alcohol or narcotc drugs are examples of offenses whch would reman crmnal volatons. Less serous offenses, such as burned out tal lghts, ncorrect turns and some speedng volatons would no longer be consdered crmnal offenses under ths measure.

Report from the captal 87th Dstrct Rep Francs R Spanola bll that, n addton to removng the crmnal stgma often attached to these offenses, Mchgans polce offcers would be requred to spend less tme n court, leavng more of ther tme free to deal wth more pressng crmnal-related actvtes. There would be a savngs to taxpayers because traffc fnes would be collected mmedately, reducng the costs ncurred by expensve courtroom procedures. Judcal offcers would be able to spend more tme on mportant cases, for whch there already exsts a substantal backlog. Secretary of States offce. That secton has been strcken from the orgnal bll, and a substtute s now beng prepared whch would leave the code under the jursdcton of the courts. The bll would establsh two separate methods for the dsposton of nfracton cases; a hearng procedure, and a tcket-only procedure. Under the tcket procedure, volators would not be requred to appear at a hearng, but nstead could accept and sgn a tcket whch ndcated a tme and locaton for a hearng, and the cvl penalty for the nfracton. The person would then post a bond equal to the approprate cvl penalty, whch would be forfeted by not appearng at the hearng. If the person dd not post bond, payment would be requred by mal or n person wthn 10 days after recept of the tcket. Persons optng for the tcket-only procedure would wave the rght to a hearng and subsequent appeal. Although I have not made a fnal decson on ths measure, I mportant bll. It. n many cases, jad sentences are ssued fo volators of the motor vehcle code as t s now wrtten, and because I do not necessarly consder traffc volatons and crmnal actvty as one and the same thng, I feel that ths stuaton deserves careful attenton. As always, I rely upon the recommendatons and suggestons of the 87th House Dstrct resdents concernng legslatve ssues.

JOHNS Chloes Column Week of the young The Week of the Young Chld s beng celebrated Aprl Most parents want ther chldren to grow up to be good and moral persons, But once that goal s set, the parents may not know how, to help ther, chldren acheve t. Accordng to Ted Ward, professor / of currculum research at Mchgan State Unversty, what the parent should do depends on where the chld s n the development of moral judgment. Everyone starts at the same level and works up through a sequence of stages. What works * to help the chld develop and advance at one pont wll not usually be very effectve ether " earler or later. Durng the frst perod n the chlds development of moral judgment, he sees rght and wrong n terms of rewards and punshments. Rght actons brng good consequences, wrong actons brng bad consequences. The key word for parents durng ths perod s consstency,. Lack ofconsstency n how you reward and punsh s very confusng to the chld. He can-t get a clear pcture of what s expected of hm f your response to thg same behavor vares from day to day. Durng the next perod, whch usually occurs durng the mddle elementary grades, the chld becomes very aware of models and examples. > At ths pont, the examples that parents set are especally mportant. Chldren are strongly nfluenced by what Kathy L. Hazle of 4389 E. Pratt Rd., St. Johns, daughter TTazTe, andta^mor^n^cj work a_t Mchgan.State, Unversty was honored at the recent Agrculture and Natural Resources Honors Banquet held at Kellogg Center. Kathy receved a medallon for her partcpaton on the M.S.U. Collegate Dary Cattle Judgng Team, durng the fall of In September, the team traveled to Hamsburg Penn. where they partcpated wth many other colleges and unverstes n the judgng contest at the Eastern Natonal Dary Show. There-the team receved awards for placng frst n Ayrshre judgng. In October they traveled, to Madson, Ws. wh.ere they judged at the World Dary Exposton and then went on to Columbus, Oho where they placed n the Natonal Intercollegate Dary Cattle Judgng Contest at the North Amercan Dary Show. Kathy s a 1972 graduate of St. Johns Hgh" School and was actve n 4-H Dary projects. they see others dong. It wll do lttle good to tell Johnny not to tell les, for nstance, or to punsh hm for fbbng, f you set an example of untruthfulness. Usually around adolescence, the chld moves nto a new level: responsveness to rule structures. Up untl that tme, rules themselves have very lttle effect, though the enforcement of rules may be qute nfluental. Now the orderlness that rules produce becomes verymportant for many young people. Rules should not be the bass for _punshment but rather a way to communcate what the parent expects. They should be clear, consstent, and just. It s nconsstent and unjust to demand that Suse keep her room neat as a pn f Mom and Dads room looks lke a cyclone just went through. Justce has been found to be the most mportant factor n the movement of a person from one level of moral development to a hgher one. The chld must see theenvromentasjust, wth far treatment and respect for everyone n t. Gvng the chld a voce n the establshment of ground rules wll help hm feel a part of the system rather than a subject of t. Though the "tellng approach" s hardly ever effectve, the dscusson or moral ssues becomes ncreasngly mportant. For many young people durng the late teen years, dscusson of the why or why not behnd behavor becomes the most powerful moral nfluence. Kathy Hazle honored at agrculture banquet Clnton County Home Economst Some persons never get to ths leveuthey may lve ther entre lves at the level of rules orentaton--"i dont do that because t s aganst the law;" or at the modelng stage-"the person J. am tryng to be lke doesnt do that;" or at the punshment and reward level- "I wont do that because I wll get n trouble f I do." The hghest level of moral development s the nternalzaton of prncples that form the bass for acton. At ths level, the motvaton for rght behavor comes entrely from wthn the person rathernthan from outsde, He lves by these prncples because he chooses to, not because he s forced or threatened. The person who reaches ths level can generalze those few basc prncples to cover a wde varety of stuatons requrng moral judgment. The person who s lvng at the rules level, on the other, hand, never has enough rules to cover every possble stuaton, so he s constantly seekng out more rules. The prncplzed state occurs only as an adult state. All people do not reach ths level, but the parent can gve the chld a good start toward t. Respect hm and hs feelngs, treat hm justly and approprately for hs level of development, gve hm lots of opportuntes to make choces and learn from both hs successes and hs mstakes, and, when he s ready for t, dscuss wth hm the why behnd the what.

Cash przes were recently awarded. The.frst prze was gven to Jame Fatura, age 10 n 5th grade: "Why ILke to Lve n Else:" I lke to lve n Else because ts a beautful lookng town. You can do lots of wonderful thngs n Else. In the summer you can swm, play basketball^ tenns, rde bkes, go huntng, fshng, and you can go rock collectng. In wnter you can go ce fshng, skatng, tobaggonng and have snowball fghts at school and at home. We have a wonderful school, ts pretty and has good food and terrfc teachers. Else s a peaceful town, everybody knows about everybody. There are dfferent knds of churches n Else, we can go to the one that s our own relgon. People are frendly and when you go up town I know a lot of people. - My grandpa has a gas staton n Else and he knows about everyone and everyone s happy and frendly. If people would just stop and look at our beautful old churches and quet lttle town they would know why I would, never lke to lve any place else than good ole- Else. The second prze went to Pam Phllps (8th grade): "Why I Lke Else" There are many dfferent reasons why and what people lke about Else, but they wouldnt have to thnk long, Else may be small, but t has a bg heart. The people are all so frendly and ready to lend a hand. The town tself has been here for about 200 years. Even though Ive only lved here fve years, I feel Ive lved here all Thrteen members of the Ovd-Duplan Lbrary Club met at the. home of Mrs. Robert ^Hebeler, Sr^oh-Frday, Aprl 2. The busness meetng was held after the bounteous potluck luncheon. Electon of offcers resulted n the followng: Presdent, Mrs. Roger Smth; 1st Vce, Mrs, Maron Walker; 2nd Vce, Mrs. Luclle Spencer; Secretary, Mrs. Charles Walker; Treasurer, Mrs. Lester ST. JOHNS my lfe.else has gone through many changes, as well as the people, Most of the men around here are farmersand make good Use of the land. We have good sol that can rase any crop you lke. The forests are flled wth deer, squrrels and rabbts, as other sorts. If you havent ever taken a trp n some of the woods around here than youre mssng a lot. You can fnd nature so natural, ts beautful, Else would make a great vacaton town. It has hlls for sldng, a park for all sorts of recreaton and a rver for fshng. All the people that lve here take advantage, of these places, Else also has clubs for old and young..the kds of today are the future of tomorrow so they try to preserve Else. Even though ts small t keeps n touch wth the outsde world. "Thats why I lke Else." The thrd prze was awarded to Gayle Furstenau, 14 (8th grade): "Why I Lke to Lve n Else:" I lke to lve n Else because t s a small town. It s usually quet and clean. There are a lot of thngs to do. At the park, you can play baseball, tenns and have pcncs. In the wnter you can ce skate. People go fshng at the dam, all year around. In sprng and fall, Else s noted for ts steelhead fshng., Else s also noted for havng the "Largest Herd of Regstered Holstens n the World." Else has some nce stores. Some stores carry more tlngs and have cheaper prces, that people from Ovd and other areas, come to shop here. We even have a Hancock Factory, These are my reasons for lkng to lve n Else. I thnk everyone -that lves here s awful lucky. ( {Shepardsvlle News J THESE CLINTON COUNTY FIRMS Becker; Hstoran and Publcty, Mrs, Luclle Spencer; Good Cheer, Mrs. Clarence Mead and Mss Luretta Lang.

You mght remember that ths s part of a three-bll suggested soluton to help us balance the state budget ths year. Weve already slashed the budget for the current year by $125 mllon and have approved blls that borrow money from the Veterans Trust Fund and the Unnsured Motor Vehcle Clams Fund. The fscal year extenson bll was probably the most controversal of the three blls. Some felt ths "gmmck," whle provdng an mmedate cash flow advantage to the state, would get us nto real bad trouble later. Others argued aganst the bll from the standpont that knowng the Aprl 7,,1976 WIN A EXPENSE PAID TRIP TO CALIFORNIA! PARENTS! REGISTER YOUR FAVORITE BOY OR GIRL CANDIDATE NOW Hurry Whle They Last! Reportfromthe captol State Representatve by Stanley Powell operatons of. ths Legslature, the budget would not be adopted untl after summer recess and school dstrcts would stll not know how much they would receve n state ad untl after they opened doors for a new school year. But, what would happen f these measures are not adopted? The only alternatve some can see rght now s a tax ncrease. In fact, proposals are flyng around the Captol to do just that, but Im sure that the votes to ncrease the personal ncome tax just are not here v Another alternatve s ready to mplement. Its another executve order cuttng the state budget by an addtonal $106 mllon, approxmately $60 mllon of whch would be taken away from the publc schools n our state. So, even though the Democrats were reluctant to go along wth us, the fscal year extenson appears to be the only responsble alternatve. I dont want a tax ncrease - nether do you. Theres no "Starve" for CROP Members of Crcle K, a servce organzaton at Central Mchgan Unversty, recently traveled to Lansng wth a check for nearly 91,400 for CROP. The money was collected through pledges from students, faculty and staff for each hour members of Crcle K fasted. The "Starvaton" project took place n the Unversty Center on the CMU campus and lasted 30 hours. The check was presented to CROP Regonal Offces n Lansng by: [front row] Debbe Wolf, a junor from Gaylord; Mark Szypersk, a junor from Bay Cty; Robert Smth, a junor from Cheboygan; and [back row] Mare Payne, a junor from Montrose; Peggy Dush, a sophomore from Eureka; and Lbby Souter. a junor from Grand Rapds. guarantee whatsoever that a tax ncrease would permanently solve our budget problems. I dont want another executve order ether. Because you know and I know that f the state takes $60 mllon away from the publc schools, these schools would have to ask the property owners for more local money wth whch to operate. So, borrowng from the two. specal funds and extendng the fscal year are, n my opnon, the only responsble alternatves. UNCONSTITUTIONAL REFORM The fact that the Mchgan Supreme Court ruled the much debated poltcal reform law unconsttutonal was the bg story of last week and a welcome one to me. In an advsory opnon requested by a House Resoluton sponsored by my Republcan colleague Representatve Wayne Sackett of Portage, the court ruled that the new law, P.A. 227 (Enrolled House bll 5250), conflcted wth Artcle IV, Secton 24 of the Mchgan Consttuton whch provdes that "no law shall embrace more than one object." That was the frst queston posed to the Supreme Court n Representatve Sacketts resoluton. There were nne other questons asked n the resoluton whch the court sad t mght deal wth later. The courts rulng on the frst queston ruled the poltcal reform law*.whch was slated to taka gffect Aprl 1> unconsttutonal n ts entrety. As you may remember, the law created a poltcal ethcs commsson wth broad regulatory powers that focused manly on publc offceholders, poltcal canddates, contrbutors to campagns and legslatve lobbysts, Ths, law also requred offceholders and canddates for offces to make full dsclosure of ther fnancal status and gave unlmted power to labor unons to make contrbutons wthout dsclosure. The part of that law that probably caused the most furor was the requrement that members of local plannng commssons, boards of revew, zonng boards, etc., who serve for lttle or no pay, would have to dsclose ther full fnancal worth ncludng all sources of ncome of the offceholder and hs or her mmedate famly. The unon exempton greatly favored the majorty Democrats who control the Mchgan Legslature. We argued at the tme ths bll was beng debated n the House that f t became law, there would be a mass resgnaton of local offceholders who, n many cases, were gvng ther tme and expertse to the local government for free. When the bll became law, there were reported resgnatons of entre cty councls, plannng commssons, and boards of revew across the state. Unfortunately, many of these local offceholders were premature n makng ther decsons. I thnk the courts decson brought a bg sgh of relef around the Captol here n Lansng. Lets face t, everyone knew and most of the Legslators admtted the bll had flaws n t. When the Governor sgned t, he asked that the flaws be promptly corrected. You may recall that I consstently opposed ths bll and voted aganst t when t was passed by the House. Now that the court has declared ths law unconsttutonal, maybe we can enact a meanngful and workable campagn reform bll. I want campagn reform, but I want campagn reform that would really work and that would not dscourage conscentous ctzens from beng wllng to render publc servce. WORKERS COMPENSATION Two specal commttees have begun meetng n an attempt to end the deadlock over reform of the state workers compensaton act. The two groups are tryng to resolve the dfferences between management and labor nterests. The commttees were selected by a b-partsan group of Legslators whch ncluded our Republcan leadershp n both the House and the Senate. One commttee s made up of "employer representatves," ncludng offcals from Ford Motor Company, Dow Chemcal Company, Alled Paper Inc., Chrysler Corp., Mchgan Mutual Insurance- GroUp, General Motors Corp., Mchgan Manufacturers Assocaton, the Budd Company and a law frm. The other commttee members are "employee representatves" and nclude spokesmen from the Mchgan State Buldng and Constructon Trades Councl, AFL-CIO, UAW and the Teamsters. Ths s consdered a new approach to solvng the workers compensaton problem, whch has been stalled snce late last year when lawmakers could not reach a compromse n the ssue. Whle Democrats are concerned only wth ncreasng benefts to those recevng compensaton, Republcans are also concerned wth curbng the abuses n the system. Cost of the reform effort, however, stll appears to be the major ssue to be resolved pror to legslatve approval. The Ultmate goal of the reform effort s to reach an acceptable and comprehensve revson of the workers compensaton program that s far and equtable to the employer and the njured employees. Hopefully, the newly formed commttees wll be able to develop that mutually acceptable plan sometme soon. r V
