s1GGEST IN HISTORY - Thousands lined Main Street to watch Cass City’s first annual Fourth of July Festival parade. An estimated 12-15,OOO people participated in the day-long festivities. The 75-unit parade took almost 50 minutes to pass by.

LUCK .-OJ control means endfor senior “swing out’

Say goodby to the annual swinga t at Cass City High School. It has gone the way of the annual senior trip, by decree of the Cass City School Board.

Meeting Monday night at the school, trustees listened to Russ Richards say that there was no way to control the students on their annual trek from the school, down Main Street. and back to the school.

Throwing of firecrackers and girls riding an the backs of boys were cited by the principal as reasons he feared serious injury in the future.

Since the students already have completed the requirements for graduation, we really have no control over them at the time, Supt. Donald Crouse said.

After listening to the ad- ministrators the board voted 6-1 to abolish the event. Dissenting was Ms. Thresa Burnette.

Richards also reported on

the school attendance policy. He said that 210 different students received letters for suspension but 112 were suspended. There were 898 student suspension days out of 123,442 school days. That’s threequarters of one percent, Richards said.

Several situations in- volving teachers were decided. The mdst important was the way the new Ever- green principal was to be hired. The board will inter- view two local candidates next Monday. If neither is given the job, it will be advertised.

Three teachers have re- signed. They are Michael Ahrens, Bruce Klemni and Debbie Bacon.

Suanne Gibbs has been appointed to replace Pat Holt. She will teach physical education and be involved in girls’ athletics

OTHER BUSINESS

The school board won an arbitration suit submitted

by the ”k-County Bar- gaining Association for Cass City teachers. The teachers were seeking a month’s payment of insurance at a current contract rate rather than the rate of the lower previous contract.

The board finally completed signing a road right of way to the village. It was for the road Jready built that connects Seeger Street to the road running to Cass City Recreational Park.

The formal signing of the quit-claim deed was held up because the board wanted the land deeded back to the school district i f someday it no longer was used for a road. It was done and the quit - claim okayed by the board.

The board reorganized and all incumbent officers were reelected. Officers arc: Geraldine Pricskorn, president ; Ed Scollon, vire- president; Paul Lockwood, secretary, and Dean Hoag, treasurer.

July 4th festival big success U

by Ron Przystlas

The weather was great, the streets were jammed and the village was buzzing as thousands celebrated Cass City’s first annual ‘Fourth of Ju ly FE!&VE&

Many who worked hard to make the day a success and many local residents hope this can turn into a popular annual festival here.

“I’m already looking forward to next year,” said

.Tom Herron, chairman of the 1979 festival. “I want to get people’s comments and suggestions about what we did right, wrong and what we can do to make it better.”

Herron said there will be an open meeting on this ‘hatter Wednesday, July 18, ’at 8 p.m. in the Charmont dining room.

“Anyone involved with the festival this year and any interested citizen is invited to offer their criticisms and suggestions,” he said. “We’ve got a good start on this. but we can make it better .”

The day’s festivities opened with breakfast in the park at 7:30 a.m. sponsored by the Cass City Rotary. by

,9:30 a m . the streets of Cass City were packed with cars and people, backing up traffic into the village for nearly an hour, said police chief Gene Wilson.

Other than that, the only problems were an elderly Woman who couldn’t find her

&daughter, a couple of kids Who couldn‘t find their parents and a man who had too much to drink at the beer tent at the Charmont who couldn’t remember where he had left his car.

The Fourth crowd jammed Main Street to watch the 75-unit parade that com- memorated the nation’s past, present and future. , The first float to appear

was the Provincial House entry, later judged best float in the parade. Zt carried a number of senior citizens who sang songs of their era. Its theme was “Down Memory Lane.”

1 Of the 15 floats entered, the second place award went to the Rotary Club.

The third prize winner was the Clothes Closet.

“We thought the parade went very well with few. ~jnags,” said parade co- chairman Mike Weaver. “One thing we’ll try to improve for next year i s getting more music in the parade. We can do that by working eight to nine months in advance to get in

+ W a c t with groups. ” Weaver said only two

groups backedout at the last minute, the Lakers HLgh fkhool band and the Army Reserve. But, he noted,

there were many who joined in the parade at the last minute.

Big Owen-Gage decisions

postponed in Lansing BULLETIN

The Municipal Finance Commission in Lansing Tuesday arternoon deferred action on the Owendale- Gagetown School District’s request for permission to borrow $375,000 until its Tuesday, July 17, meeting.

According to Don Fichter, MFC staff administrator, consideration of the request was delayed one week, pending receipt of mare information from the district about its ‘ financial status as of June 30. On the recommendation of

Assistant Attorney General Gerald Young, the state Board of Education Tuesday night postponed scheduled consideration of four prop erty transfer appeals in- volving Owen-Gage until its September meeting.

Young made the recommendation, according to I a d Dombrowski, the board’s administrative secretary, because the state Gurt of Appeals is scheduled to hear arguments in the Godin property transfer case in August. A court decision in that case will affect all other pending property transfer requests.

++++++ Some big decisions re-

garding the .Owendale-Gage- town School District were to be made in Lansing Tuesday and Wednesday.

me first is the request by the district to the Municipal Finance Commission (MFC) for permission to b m w $375,000 in anticieation of

receipt of property tax revenue -- money needed so i t can resume paying its employees. Approval was expected for most of the amount . The second was considera-

tion by the state Board of Education of four property transfer requests, three from Owen-Gage to other school districts and the other to transfer property back.

Normally borrowing money by school districts is routine, to fill the gap until property tax revenue starts flowing in each December, money from which is used to repay the loan. - But for various reasons, Owen-Gage is without enough money to pay its employees, which lent ur- gepcy to ib request to the MFC. Supt. Ronald Erickson reported at Manday night’s school board meeting it has now missed two pay periods (every other week). That affects teachers and adrnin- istrators. all of whom are paid year-round.

There was enough in the treasury as of June 30 -- $Zl,OOO - to pay routine bills. He also reported the first

installment of LE4218 has been repaid to the state for the 575,000loan plus interest Owen-Gage received from Lansing last year. The MFC has already

reduced the district’s loan request by $25,ooO because of the unsettled legal status of the Goslin parcel, which affects the amount of tax revenue, but Erickson, as of Monday night, wasn’t expecting any problems in

getting approval to borrow the remaining $350,000.

After that, he said, it will take about 10 days to get bids from banks and then award one in order for the district to get the money. (The bid is awarded to the bank charging the lowest interest rate.)

STATE BOARD

The state board was to .meet a t 7 p.m. Tuesday and most of Wednesday. Erick- son didn’t know when during that time it would be considering property transfer appeals.

The requests are to transfer the Miller parcel to the Cass City district, Gremel to UnionvilleSebewaing and Dietzel to Elkton-Pigeon- Bay Port (Lakers), and the request by Owen-Gage to get back the Elenbaurn parcel, now part of Lakers.

If all four parcels were part of Owen-Gage, Erick- son said, they would consti- tute about 30 percent of the district’s valuation.

Technically, property owners in the Gremel and Miller parcels have with- drawn their requests to have their property transferred, but they were still to have been considered by the state board.

OwenGage was to have been represented by at- torneys James F. Schouman and William Fitzgerald. If the state board denies the transfer requests (from Owen-Gage) Erickson said, the district will have finally

proven its contention that such transfers have been harmfut to it.

But no matter which way the board decides, he pre- dicted, “It’s going to go to the courts anyway.”

REORGANIZATION

Monday’s meeting was the organizational session. Elected as board officers were Ron Good, president; Joe Warack, vicepres- ident; Jack Brinkman, treasurer, and Leona b F a v e , secretary. The only change was Warack as vice- president.

When the community education program was first discussed at meetings of the Caw City School Board, the rationale for starting the program was that there would be no direct o u t d - pocket expense to local taxpayers,

Funds available from Federal and State sources were to carry the program, according to the board‘s discussion.

Monday night, Ms. K a t h l e e n O’Donnel l , Communi ty E d u c a t i o n Director, presented her report to the board and it showed that the program in its first year cost district taxpayers $10,212.54.

Ms. O’Donnell told the board that this was under her forecast of a $11,350.54 lass for the year. The loss was held in check, she said, because she cut the program to the bare bone.

She called for more publicity abut the program and suggested that the school adminis t ra t ion’s pamphlet be mailed once a month with ngws of the program. The prnphlet’s production cost IS not charged to the community education program.

How much the program casts taxpayers in the future will depend largely on the number of high school completion students taking classes.

This spring there were the equivalent of 15.2 full time high school completion students. Because of these students, the funds received from government sources outside of the school district amounted to about $16,500. Also received was $lO,OOO

of actual costs for enrichment programs as compared to high school completion. According to the education director’s report on the program, adult and youth courses of a recreational nature were far more popular than those designed to upgrade skllls.

For instance, open recreation basketball drew 60 entries, far more than double the size of any other program. Gymnastics drew 26 in the winter term.

Courses like metrics for adults, consumer math and an auto maintenance course failed to create enough interest to be held. The top academic type course was secretarial refresher which attracted 10 pupils.

iinterview, NBC-TV Kii- Fred Silverman admit-

.% a show with “no re- :deeming qualities” ap- p r e d on his network this ypring. Why did he allow it?

“You just can’t go on :dark,” Silverman explained.

Why not? ’i Where is it chiseled in q a n i t e that there must al- ,%ays be a picture on the TV .screen? Has Silverman ever :explored the comedic, dra- ’matic and therapeutic pos- Bibilities of a blank screen? -; The most memorable

moments in local news shows are when the anchor- ’Jperson gives a detailed in- .traduction of a taped seg- :merit that then never ap- ,pears. The screen remains 3eautifully blank. *. I’m not sure how the .producers of these news shows achieve such marvel- .ous blanks. It can’t always be easy. Timing must be crucial to success.

Obviously, it’s a simple matter for TV technicians to replace tapes with blanks if the tapes are made on the other side of town just a few minutes before air time. Any

‘dummy can produce a good ,blank while working under the pressure of a deadline.

‘‘4 But I’ve seen gorgeous TV ,blanks produced with no .help whatsoever from pressure.

A Just last week, on the 11 ‘o’clock news, I watched an anchorman introduce a !taped segment with the ,great confidence that can come onlv from exDerience. : had introduced the same ement on the G’oclock

on screen exactly as scheduled. Naturally, he thought the same thing would h a p pen five hours later. But it didn‘t.

Those are the best kinds of blanks. They are completely unexpected, and the surprise adds interest to the void. When the anchorperson returns to the screen to say “Apparently we don’t have that tape” he or she does it with B delicious spontaneity that can’t be faked and which is easily transmitted to the audience at home.

It must require a lot of behind-theacenes work to produce a surprising TV blank without the aid of deadline pressure. The last- minute scurrying around must be done without tipping off the anchorperson who is just a few feet from the scurriers. To preserve the surprise, it’s probably necessary to distract the anchorperson’s attention so he or she won’t notice when the blank is trucked in and the taped segment is trucked out.

No good TV blank can stand alone. If this were possible, NBC would be well advised to stay blank all the prime time, especially during rating sweeps.

To be effective, a TV blank must be sandwiched between the reactions of an anchorperson who knows how to express authoritive confidence leading into the blank and controlled an- guish after it. Most important, the anchorperson must be able to look off camera

his- or h& eyeballs. Viewers react to TV

blanks. The other night, an anchorman introduced three straight taped segments, and each of them was adroit- ly replaced by a blank at the last second. I laughed so hard my shoes fell off. My wife, a more compassionate person, cried for the anchorman’s plight. The next day at work, everyone was talking about the three straight blanks. I never heard that much conversa- tion about “Roots.”

It is this type of strong audience reaction that Fred Silverman wants for his beleaguered NBC network. He could get it by inserting frequent blanks into his regular programing. If blanks work so well on the local level, why not national- ly? And if they work during news programs, why not during comedies and dramas?

Last month, in an attempt to improve ratings, Silver- man resurrected Lucille Ball to appear in specials. Miss Ball’s program would make an ideal showcase for the debut of NBC’s blanks. The result would probably be a spin-off miniseries star- ring blanks interrupted by vacuums.

It’s fortunate that NBC recently fired Gerald Ford from his $2 million contract to participate in docurnen- taries. Blanks wouldn’t be visible on Ford shows because of the lack of contrast.

( I expect a full pardon for writing that.)

The week’s favorite guessing game has been the sik,’of the crowd at the July 4 Festival.

Estimates run from a low of 4,500 to a high of 18,OOO. A channel 12 rep said 18,OOO. WNEM-TV had it at a b u t 15,000.

You could also find witnesses saying it was smaUet., larger or the same size as the crowd at Cass City’s centennial parade.

One thing that all agreed upon: there were bots of people here, more than most expected.

Most of the events ran like clockwork. There were a few problems. One was the overload of the park electrical circuits by concessions. They kept blowing circuits a t $40 per crack. Another was the problem folks had getting chicken dinners served by the Lions. Some folks were in line 3 hours. Traffic control a t the tractor and pony p@s needs overhauling.

Another topic after the event was the length of the celebration. There has been talk of a two or threeday ev&t next year but the consensus seems to be to hold it to o y . The reason: the amount of volunteer labor it takes to put y the show.

One final note about the celebration. Volunteers w&e numerous. High on the list has to be Clark Seeley. He prepared the tractor pull site. His bulldozing bill was $ 2 9 and he donated it to the cause.

The organization that monitors high school athletics may not be large as bureaucracies go, but it refuses to play second fiddle to any just because of its size.

It’s small but mighty. Ranks right up there with all those Washington bureaus that you read about when it comes to weird policies and decisions.

The Michigan High School Athletic Association is a stickler for enforcement of picayunish regulations that are as inconsistent as Michi- gan’s weather.

I f you follow local athletics you know that a proposed game between Cass City alumni and next year’s high school varsity was can- celled because of Associa- tion regulations. Play that game, the school Was warned, and the entire team would be ineligible next year. That’s an all-star ex- hibition.

About the time this ruling was ordained from on high, the daily papers in Detroit were trumpeting the all-star game featuring the best players in the state in a Detroit gym.

You’ll be forgiven if you thought that these players must have been graduated from high school and wete waiting to enter college. That’s only rational.

The truth is that these players are next year’s high school stars. They play at tournaments with the best in college and even some pros who work out to keep in shape.

What’s more it’s all legal. This is summer recreation. As you can see the line

between legal and not legal is so faint as to be really nonexistent except in the minds of the bureaucrats who run the system.

There have been cases where athletes lost their eligibility for playing in a YMCA tournament during vacation or accepting a sweatshirt from a team sponsor.

If you can justify the current summer basketball on the basis of recreation it makes sense that summer recreation in football is also okay.

But don’t be caught throwing a pigskin around in a formal practice situation before the designated date or whamo! The Athletic Association strikes and ineli- gibility descends.

Just why football is different from basketball is something that you’ll have to have explained in Lansing.

You can make a case for over emphasis of sports with summer basketball -- or any other sport out of season, If that’s the case it seems to me that it would be easy to decree that high school players participating on a school basis or practicing that way will be ineligible. Period.

That way it would put basketball on an even footing with football. That way would be simple.

That way will never happen.

**e*******

It’s getting so that you have to be a semi-native to know about Willis Campbell. He was superintendent and teach& at Cass City for about half a century. He was also a s t r q g community booster.

I was reminded of all this when I caught a story in tIie Pigeon Progess telling of Rotary’s 42 years in that community.

Honored for starting the club was Willis Campbell. . ; ****I*****

Number 23 in the list of persons older than the Chronicle$ 88 years is Mrs. Vania White, a patient in the Medical Care Facility, Caro. She will be 95 August 27 and is a lifelo@ resident of Cass City, according to hlrs. Russell Cook. - .

**********

For want of a better name I call this the Haire principle., I t says that if you goof up someone once in the paper, you have to noof him up again.

Further proof of the validity of that axiom is Tom Proctor. In the progress edition we failed to get his story published. Let me tell you that Old Wood Drug is on the corner in Cass City and Tom is going strong after 17 years at the helm, serving the needs of Cass City area folks.

In the same edition the story pointed out that the Festival idea was conceived by Proctor who was unable to contribute significantly to the project. What the story’ should have said is that he wasn’t a chairman. He worked on publicity and he worked on Rotary Club projects.

Right now I’m going to risk a third story about Proctor. This concerns the Sidewalk Sales coming to Cass City July’

As president of the retail committee Proctor is the head of this sale, annually the biggest of the year.

The feature of the .sale this year, besides the bargains,’ will be the sale of ethnic food dishes on the sidewalk.

--Clear the yard, every time. You never know when a rock, stick, wire, can or piece of glass may get into your mower and be thrown with great force.

--Always watch your footing, particularly on slopes. Golf shoes or shoes with cleats can help keep you from slipping. Steer a hand power mower across slopes, never up and down. Here are some “don’ts’’: --Don’t allow young chil-

Angels Kelly (Jacqueline Smith) and Chris (Cheryl Ladd) enter and sit down.

“But she hasn’t worked out, as you Angels well know. Only last week, when I assigned you three to infiltrate the Mafia gang as their gun molls, she fell in love with one of the mob- sters. If he hadn’t been killed in a gunfight with you, Kelly, the cover of all three of you would have been blown.”

“Meanwhile I have learned that Sabrina’s new job as a.n undercover agent for the CIA isn’t working out and she would like her old job back.

I ‘Kiss your baby’ to

detect Cystic Fibrosis I The Greater Michigan

Chapter of the Cystic Fibro- sis Foundation has launched a statewide educational project, “Kiss Your Baby”, for

the week of July 15-21. Purwse of this venture is

to alert parents to the symptoms of Cystic Fibrosis and other children’s lung di- seases in the hope that early diagnosis and prompt treatment, an essential element in lengthening the life span of children with CF. will result.

One of the symptoms of Cystic Fibrosis is an ex- tremely salty taste to the CF child’s perspiration which can be detected by kissing or tasting them on the- fore- head.

Other symptoms include : recurrent wheezing; persist- ent coughing and excessive mucus; pneumonia more than once during childhood; excessive appetite, but poor weight gain; and clubbing (enlargement) of fingertips. Suspecting parents are directed to consult their local physician.

“It is estimated that res- piratory problems in children take up to 70 percent of a

1 oediatrician’s time and are h e leading cause of chronic absenteeism from schod,” said Jeanne Mayan, president of the Greater Michi- gan CF Chapter.

“Furthermore, Cystic Fi- brosis is second only to cancer in the number of young lives it takes and three out of four victims of this disease are not yet diagnosed .”

Cystic Fibrosis is an inher- ited disease for which there is neither cure nor control. In CF, a thick, sticky mucus clogs the lungs and airways c ra t ing breathing difficul- ties, high susceptibility to infection and lung damage. The mucus may also inter- fere with digestion by pr& venting the flow of enzymes into the m a l t intestine, causing malabsorption of

Day set MSuBean The annual Michigan I the library State University Bean and

Beet Field Day at the Sagi- naw Valley Bean and Beet Research Farm in Saginaw County is scheduled Sept. 6.

This is about a month later than usual so that the event can include a special direct harvest demonstration of some new, upright bean varieties.

Aim of the field day is to give growers and industry personnel a chance to find out what’s happening in bean and beet research at the experimental farm.

According to Milton Erd- mann, professor of crop and soil sciences at MSU, direct harvest could offer dry bean growers some distinct ad- vantages aver conventional harvest methods.

“With direct harvest, growers could go through the field once with a combine and be done,” he says. “With conventional harvest methods, it takes two trips -- once through to pull the plants and windrow them, and a second time through to combine them. Direct harvest would save time, fuel and labor.”

It’s also hoped that direct harvest of taller varieties

THE RISE OF THEODORE ROOSEVELT, by Edmund Morris (non-fiction) .‘ This rich and vibrant biography ’, , covers Roosevelt’s life up to the age af 42, when an assassin’s bullet elected him the youngest president in the ,, nation’s history. Everything about it deserves superlatives, the densely worked research upon which it rests, the writing, the way in which the book is organized. Morris ‘ doesn’t dress his subject up. In fact, on occasion, he dresses , him down--for his cloying good cheer and the bloodthirsti. , ness that underlay the pugnacity with which Rmevel t fronted tife.

men and women, Catholic and Protestant, a te beginning to , perceive that they have something in common, that it may be possible to unite against Britain. The wily French, with Bonaparte just beginning his spectacular rise, are ready to ,

tweak the British lion’s tail a bit, to invade Ireland on a ~

small scale, urging the Irish to rebel. Out. of this authentic and heartbreaking history, Fknagan has produced a novel , of major significance, one in which the characters come ~

instantly alive, play out their roIes dramatically: and linger long in our minds.

* * TIME IS NOW :i

Two bills were introduced in the Michigan Legislature in June which would repeal &he state’s mandatory , helmet usage law for motorcycle riders.

Joe Nagy believes the present helmet law “is a good deal for the persons just starting as a motorcycle driver.”

“It is good protection and the law would especially benefit those 1621-year olds.”

Those legislators op sing

only be felt by the owners and operators of cycles, but by every citizen who purchases auto or health insurance. “Sure, the repeal would

affect every driver and user of the nation’s roadways,” Nagy said. “A cyclist’s :hances of suffqring serious head injury are greatly increased if he fails to protect his brain.”

Nagy said the issue has effects on taxpayers as well, as they would share the financial burden when there .J an increase in injuries because of riders not wearing helmets.

“I would even wear the helmet if it was the law or not.”

Insurance companies will ’-e especially interested in Knowing if a health or life insurance policyholder owns or rides a motorcycle if the repeal becomes law, Nagy noted.

the repeal say it wou p” d not

Nagy has owned five motorcycles in the 10 years be has ridden them. He and his wife, Patricia, currently own two, a Yamaha 650 and a Honda 200. He suggested that motor-

cyclists keep alert and always be on the defensive. “I’m always watching out for cars,” Nagy said. I A A s I came into Cass City this morning, I had to brake fast so I wouldn’t run into a car. It was close.’’”

Nagy commutes several times a week from Caro to C a s City to do his banking and other business. He has nine months insurance on his motorcycles and usually rides them from May through October.

He works at the Caro Regional Center. We and his wife live at 3360 Colwood Road, Caro.

:: “It was just something I

couldn’t pass up,” he said. “Now I’ve got a car in Michigan when I come home to visit my parents.”

Someone from the parade committee recognized Lowe and asked him if he’d mind showing off his car in the Fourth of July parade. “I was flattered by the offer and couldn’t refuse,” he said.

His parents are Dean and Anna Mae Lowe of C a s City Road; Ubly. His father owns a construction company in the area.

Following a couple of years of construction work and a few other jobs around Cass City after high school, Lowe heard about some jobs down South available from his brother. Lowe went down there, he said, because he is tired of combating the cold Michigan weather .

“It hardly ever snows down there,” he said.

Lowe was on a two-week vacation from the life a t sea and expressed hope that he would return to Louisiana for three weeks of classes at a vocational school where he plans to sharpen his skills so he can earn a skipper’s license to operate a ship.

“During those three weeks in school I’ll get a couple of weeks pay from the company to cover my cost of living, Lowe said, “It‘s a pretty good setup.”

Lowe thought he was making “better than aver- age” with his salary as a merchant seaman, but said the higher position you have, the more money you make.

He returned to the life on the high waters early Mon- day morning, July 9. While in Cass City, Lowe stayed with his parents in Ubly.

ana l l en said it is being Q. anced through two village pnks. The addition, he said, will

sldd 50 percent more square

footage to the prehient building and solve some over- crowding problems in the classrooms. ,

The two offices will serve as a pastor's study and a church office.

One block of three Sunday School rooms will be constructed along the church kitchen and will serve as church parlor rooms for a variety of activities.

The other block of three rooms will serve as two nunsery rooms with a kindergarten class for parents to take the@ children while they attend services on Sun- day. Two other classrooms will be built across the hall.

"In the future, we could turn it into a day care center

for parents to take their young children," Rev. Van Dellen said. "But this isn't definite . "

He mid all the rmme will be used for Sunday School facilities on Sunday mornings.

"We'N be getting the most use out of this.new wing as we can."

EDITOR

Urges energy society Dear Editor:

I have been wondering for some time if a county energy society could be helpful to persons interested in buying or building alternate energy devices.

Monthly meetings could be scheduled so that some aspect of it could be dealt with in depth -- a sort of a workshop showing how to do this particular phase and where to buy supplies.

Accordingly, we are ex- tending an invitation for Friday, July 13 at 7:30 p.m. to meet in our workshop at 3944 W. Akron Road, Akron, to discuss this and to talk about homemade wind power plants, especially the blade preparation, since I have limited experience on this, several models, and much literature. We would like to get an

idea of how many to prepare for, so please call either 691-5484 (or Circle S, 691-5558) if you decide to come, so that we will have seating .

It was a very nice day. Thanks again Mike and Dale for starting it off so good.

Applaud Festival workers

Dear John,

We would like to express our thanks to the Cass City Chamber of Commerce and the July 4th Festival committee for all the work they did to make the festival such B great success.

We know that a lot of people did a lot of work to make the day as wonderful as it was.

Our church is proud to have had a float in the parade and a concession stand, sponsored by our youth, which was also very successful.

But, we are also aware of the fact that had it not been for the hard work of many people ahead of time, we would not have been so fortunate.

Thanks again for all your work.

‘cass City teachers. “We were very pleased

with the audience turnout and they were treated to a variety of shows,” Chair- man Gerry Tibbib said. The acts ranged from

. .iano solos, duets and trios to square dancing and ballet. Over 100 persons participated in Cass City’s first annual talent show.

Jim Hobbs, Cass City music teacher, opened the rogram as he led the audience in the national anthem. Wayne Dillon

They were among the 15 Scottish High- land Dancers who per- fdrmed earlier in the day and participated in the parade.

Third place went to a girls’ trio accompanied by T m m y Tibbits for their s,ging the song “What a Difference You Made in My Life.” The trio consisted of Cindy Ware, Julie Helwig arid Laurie Ware, all of Cass City.

“The judging was almost i rwssible because of such hgb quality performances,” Mrs. Tibbits said.

A committee of three Cass City teachers and one local resident judged the 11 acts on their performance and the audience’s reactfop- to c h.

The judges were teachers Nancy Weippert, Kally Ma- harg and Jim Hobbs, plus Marge Curtis.

Mrs. Tibbits said cochair- man Lyle Clarke, and high school senior Scott Krueger, v J helped with the setup, made the show run very smoothly.

“We asked if the audience would like the show to be repeated next year,” she said. “The crowd gave a tl1‘)nderous response. ”

SECOND PLACE FLOAT -- The Rotary Club float was judged second best in the parade. Riding on it were exchange students, some from foreign countries visiting here and others from here who will be going to other countries.

THIRD PLACE FLOAT - The float of downtown business The Clothes Closet, with plants and flowers from Buds and Blossoms, took third place in the July 4th parade.

Several children took the brush to the canvas throughout the day at the recreation park.

Editor’s note: As a newcomer to Cass City, we thought it would be interesting to have the Chronl- de’s summer reporter, Ron Przystas, give his impres- sions of the July 4th festival.

by Ron Przystas

In terms of measuring success, how do you do it for something like Cass City’s first Pacesetter festival?

I’m not sure what value there would be in counting the number of people who attended. Estimates range from 8,000 to 18,000 and I tend to agree on the latter.

Organizations which had food concession stands sold out. But then, I think very few persons believed Cass City was going to have as big a crowd as they did.

Most of the sponsoring groups made money, wlth one exception. The Chamber of Commerce just about broke even, maybe even lost a little. According to Gloria Ouvry, advertising for the oneday event totaled between $2 to 3,000. But then, this wasn’t designed as a money-making event for the Chamber, chairman Tom Herron told me.

Now getting back to measuring success, I don’t like to do it with numbers and financial figures. They don’t say enough. People’s faces do.

When I took my camera all over the park last Wed- nesday I saw happy, smiling people having a good time. Smiles are my measure of success.

Whether it was watching the tractor pull, participating in the tug of war or just sitting back and watching the children’s paint-in, many enjoyed the day’s activities and want the same to be repeated for next year. (If you do Cass City, I’ll come back for it.)

Everything from the parade in the morning to the tractor pull in the afternoon to the hot air balloon in the early evening to the championship softball game a t night went very smoothly. Sure, there were a few snags in the day’s activities, but Herron and his, crew have nothing to be ashamed of and everything to be proud of. They did a fantastic job.

Watching and shooting (pictures) atop the Chroni- cle building, I saw an impressive parade and a very enthusiastic crowd. I could feel the excitement down below.

I’ve never been a fan for fairs, festivals or community celebrations but I had a good time at Cass City’s. I ate well, talked to many persons having their own, good time and even enjoyed participating in a couple of

events. The first was my 10-kilo-

meter run and at times, I wasn’t suke if “enjoyment” would describe the way I felt about the experience. Through the endless hills on the straight-away on &me- tery Road, around the bac of Tuckey’s house an through the woods, I plunged my way across the course to the finish line (not in record times, 49:38), but at least I never stopped. The highlight of my night

came when I took a ride aboard Wayne Warren’s hot air balloon. That was an experience I’ll never forget. As I was making my way to the balloon, one of the workers got his leg wrapped around the rope attached to the ballhn and he couldn’t get it untied. As I saw him lifted off the ground, I couldn’t believe it a t first. Finally, I threw off the camera and helped him get the rope off; a close call.

The Jaycees softball tournament was a great way to end the day. I watched some super softball in the consolation and championship games. All four teams played their hearts out and the Jaycees put on quite a tournament. (Nice job Jim Turner. 1

With the tremendous amount of energy and enthu- siasm workers put forth in making the first such a success, Cass City has a lot

to be proud of their high- spirited community involve ment and the committee chairmen who made it all go.

As Tom Herron explained, the village should stick with a one-day event for next year because three days would involve too much work. Better to have one day full of things to do than to drag out the festival for three days. Less of a financial risk also.

“These things take time,” Herron said. “We can’t go rushing into a three-day eveht all a t once. That’s a lot of work for a number of people.”

As a newcomer to Cass City, I’ve been able to sense a deep-rooted feeling of community pride that is hard to find in small towns in the United States. The people who live here seem to care about the village and it shows when things like this festival blossoms to success.

Many thanks should go out to many people for making the festival one to remember. But it’s hard to mention everyone who had a hand in helping out.

That’s the kind of community cooperation more cities, towns and villages should hope to establish.

UP, UP AND AWAY -- Pilot Wayne Warren reaches to ,

adjust the propane burner. The higher the temperature . the warmer the air is inside the balloon and the higher and faster it will rise. A tether kept it from rising more than 70 feet, with rides limited to 5 minutes. Youngsters were required to wear safety helmets.

Bugs sta rt to infiltrate Tuscola county fields

Tuscola County has experienced a few insect problems in crop fields in 1979, according to county Extension Director BiIl Bortel.

Here i8 a summary:

Armyworms - Keep a close eye on the small grains ditch banks and grassy area of field. A lpt of farmers have sprayed in Saginaw County and a few have lost significant acreages of wheat. Check our new publi- cation E-755 for recom- mended spray material. Call the office for a free copy.

Potato Leafhoppers - We are findidg a few, so check your soybean and dry beans now. Maybe we can stay on top of this one this year. When you find five or more per plant, use Sevin, Cygon,, Guthion or Trithion. Check the label for day to harvest. Cygon i s cleared for leafhoppers, plantbugs and aphids

mended. Plantbugi - A few tarn-

ished plantbugs have been found on beans. Cygon, Guthion, b i n , or Malathion can be used.

Corn Borer - Check for egg masses and moths, Borers can be controlled until they move into the stalks and then it is very difficult. Spray when egg masses on the underside of

the leaf are at the black head stage. Use Mazinon, Para- thion, or Furadan. Be v%ry careful with Furadan if it was usedin the cow. Check the label.

Foliar application of Mala- thion, D i a z b n or &Via may be uscd to control adulb if there are four or maw adults per ear and pollina- tion has not occurred.

CO~P Root WOrm Adrltr - AICaifa Weevil - The adults

are going to be a problem for a t least a couple more weeks. They are especially bad in first year seedings. We have seen some feeding on soybeans which are next to alfalfa fields. We’ve had a terrible time controlling them this year.

To control adults, use some of the stronger materials such as Supracide, Mala- thion and Methoxychlor, “Alfa-Tox,” or Furadan.

HEAVE, HO - The Deford Community Church team pulled its way to first place among the women’s teams in the July 4th tug Of war by out-tugging the Ridge Runnerettes of Sebewaing. The Deford squad defeated the Walbro team

July 15 is the last day for farmers, food processors, food distributors and other agricultural concerns de- siring protection against natural gas curtailment to file a written priority request with their supplier, according to Doris E. West- ern, Huron county Agricul- tural Stabilization and Con- servation Service executive director.

The Federal Energy Reg- ulatory Commission originally disignated June 15 as the last day to file but extended, it by one month.

Requests should include : Name and address; in- tended end uses and volume of natural gas needed; natural gas purchases for most recent 12 months for which records are available; documentation to sup- port calculation of needs; standard industrial classifi- cation (SIC) code numbers, such as 01 for crops and 02 for livestock; and signature swearing or affirming to accuracy of the request.

It is suggested that the user's natural gas supplier be contacted concerning procedures for obtaining agricultural priority.

County ASCS offices should have information regarding "essential agricultural uses" and the for- mat for filing, Mrs. Western said.

h l y 16-il you’ll find al i the latest conveniences for banking. You’ll also find friendly people who are natives to the Cass City area.

That includes the management of the office. It’s headed by Richard Ypma who comes from Ubly and Curtis Strickland, a native of Cass City. The branch is under the direction of Paul Clabuesch, of Pigeon. Cla- buesch was no stranger to Cass City before the bank opened. He was a teacher and coach at Cass City High School and a member of the Cass City Gavel club.

The full service banking that is offered by Thumb National is detailed in this grand opening section.

Also important, bank officials feel, is the proven ability of the bank to handle all the financial needs of the business and farm community.

Today Thumb National has arranged for over $10 million in loans to farmers. Needless to say, Clabuesch

Message center ready for free

use by area civic groups At a cost of more than

$24,000 to the Thumb Nation- al bank, vice-president and chief cashier Paul Clab- uesch would like the electronic message center to serve as a tool for the public interest.

“Half of the time we use the sign to advertise our services and to promote our bank,” he said. “But the other half is where we are looking for events to promote and things that would involve community interest. In that way, we hope to better serve not only our customers, but the entire village as well.”

The message center was purchased on a five-year lease from the American Sign and Indicator Corp. in Wheeling, Ill., and was installed a week after the Thumb National Bank opened its doors May 14.

It is an electronic device which is on 24 hours a day and is operated inside the bank on a modified key- board center where the messages are typed out.

The messages are created by the employees of the bank, and the machine can hold 13 characters for every line that is flashed on the outside screen.

“It can be any combination of letters, numbers, punctuation marks or designs that add up to 13 characters,” said Rich Ypma, bank vice-president. “The machine has the ability to $tore eight of these lines in its memory bank. That’s how a sentence or phrase is created.”

Clabuesch said that although the machine stores eight lines now, it has the ability to store twice as many lines. But, he adds, it would be difficult to come up with different messages every day when there are 16 lines to work with.

“We change the message at least every day,” he said. “And sometimes, when we want to put up a birthday by a request from one of our customers for a few hours or if something else is going on, we’ll change it three or four times in a day.”

In addition to the eight line message, the sign also dis- plays the time and temperature automatically.

The bank has a weather station located on top of the building, which is protected from givinj false readings due to sha e or other fac- tors.

The unit can be set for any temperature and when it hits the desired degrees, the message center will record the day and time it occurred.

“This feature would probably come in use later on when it gets really hot and the bank decides to hold B temperature contest for people to guess when it’s going to hit 100 degrees,” Clabuesch said. “Then we’ll set the unit for that temperature.”.

Besides Fahrenheit, the message center also dis-

plays the temperature in Celsius.

Some of the designs that can be programmed into the machine include boats, rein- deer, trains and cars. So far, the bank has used images of dollar signs, automobiles and eym in the word “look.”

“The designs are formed by punching out holes where

the lights on the outside sign will display the image,” Clabuesch said.

Each line is set for the amount of time it will be shown on the outside screen. It can range from a fraction of one second to 15 seconds.

“It is usually set for one and a half to two seconds,” he said. “That’s long enough

for people who pass by to read it.”

Clabuesch said his biggest problem with the sign is trying to come up with different combinations of slogans for the bank and different things of interest to the public.

“Any church group, school

organization or local club that has something they would like to display is more than welcome to talk with us and arrange something,” Clabuesch said. “It cannot be a commercial group or business, but any others are more than welcome.” He said there is no charge for the service.
