DeWitt Council questions
check to resigned chief
By Jim Edwards
County News Editor
DEWITT - A difference of opinion
between the DeWitt City Council and
the city administrator came to a head
Monday night, prompting the calling of
a special meeting Tuesday night at
5,: 30.
Members of the council objected to
the city administrator Daniel Elliott
authorizing a check for approximately
$1400 for resigning police chief Charles
Anderson.
Elliott said the check covered money

definite policy outlined in such cases
and that he authorized the payment on

similar situation, a conversation with

Gillespie then recommended a
meeting between Elliott, city employees and the salary and personnel
committee to'clarify the situation."
- Mayor DeWitt said that Elliott had
time to consult with the council before
authorizing the check and said it was
something he had been "warned about
before "
DeWitt called the special meeting for
5:30 pm the next evening and also
announced the changing of the title

Asked why he would object to a
change of title, Elliott said, "It is a
matter of administrative interference
from the mayor since November. Each
has told the office girls to approve each
check and is individually directing

Elliott said it is the responsibility of
his office to handle such procedures.

Bath to seek funds
for new school ,
BATH -- The Bath Board of
Education, in a special meeting held
April 23, decided to "go to the people"
for funds to build a new high school and
construct an addition to the present
high school, according to Superin, tendent Roger Carlson.
,
Carlson said the architectural
engineer's estimate for repair of the
Couzen's Building came to at least
$65,000, and possibly more.
The board, he said, decided the best
route to take would be construction of a
new high school and remodeling the
present senior high into a facility to
house the middle school.
The Couzen's Building would not be
used, with the exception of shop
facilities on the south end of the school.
Present plans call for an election to
be held'July 30, with double sessions for
students continuing until adequate
facilities can be provided.
Carlson noted that the bond issue will
be similar to that proposed in the last
school election.
Barbara Waggoner finds Peace Corps rewarding
By Laurie Kipp
County News Writer
EUREKA -- Barbara Waggoner
always wanted to go to Africa, and in
January of 1971 she got her wish. A
Peace Corps_ volunteer, she has just
extended her "service to include another
year, beginning soon in Upper Volta.
She is the daughter of Mr and Mrs J, D.
Robinson of Eureka.
Ms Waggoner received a BA in
Sociology from the University of
Michigan. Upon graduation she obtained a job at Harvard, which she
didn't like, and an apartment in Boston.
She had applied for a position with the
Peace Corps, but had given up on being
accepted since almost a year had
passed with no word from them.
"The application was huge," she
said, "With 16 personal recommendations required. They do some
very thorough checking."
Finally she heard from them, and
was told to list 3 countries she would
like to visit.
"It's just like the Army," she
laughed, "They give you 3 choices and
ignore them."
Ms Waggoner was firm, however,
and said she wanted Africa.
rt
school and the rest are out in the bush."
"Half of them, too, have had an injection of a French anti-Malaria drug,
which damages the Sciatic Nerve," she
added^ The Sciatic Nerve is located
near the hip.
"IT'S EXTREMELY painful," she
said. "Some of the kids can't, or won't,
walk and the leg atrophies."
"They don't try to use the leg, and
never walk again. After 3 years or so
they can't do anything with it."
The World Rehabilitation Fund has
paid for and sent a machine for making
braces out of natural materials, which
they have had for 8 months. But, the
generator which provides power for the
machine, hasn't arrived yet.
When asked if she felt like she was
accomplishing anything in such a bleak
situation, Ms Waggoner replied, "I
realize I can't do very much . . . my
work is far more personal than
any thing-ma ybe I can help 30 kids to
walk . . , but I can't change Upper
Volta."
She does find the delays disheartening, however. "These people get
discouraged, and then I get
discouraged," she said.
"very warm and beautiful - very quick
to smile, very quick to laugh. They have
no crime problem.1'
"We could learn something from
them," she added.
WHEN SHE ARRIVED, she had to
learn the language of the Mossi Tribe,
the ruling tribe of the region, but had no
problems here.
There are some 8000 people in Banfora. Ms Waggoner lives in 2 mud
houses, 1 about 16 feet in diameter and
another 10 feet* across. They have
cement floors and bamboo thatched
roofs/
Two other male Peace Corpg volunteers live in houses with running
water in town, but she said she prefers
her mud huts on The edge of the city.
It is unusual for Mossi men to have
just 1 wife, and an unmarried woman is
never seen. If a woman's husband dies,
she is absorbed into another family.
July through September is the rainy
season in Upper Volta, so crops must be
planted and harvested by December.
The climate is very humid, arid

Fowler Earth Science students learn
in relaxed atmosphere
By LAURIE KIPP
County News Writer
FOWLER -- Earth Science
students at Fowler's Holy
Trinity. School enjoy the
relaxed atmosphere of Dean
Bredwell's classes. And, the
method Bredwell uses to
teach seems to have paid off.
off. He was voted Earth
Science teacher of the Year
for the North Central Region
covering Ohio, Indiana,
Illinois, Kentucky and
Michigan by members of the
National Association of
Geology Teachers.
To the music of the Beatles
and other groups, students
can be seen digging in the
dirt, playing games and
taping things to the ceiling.
Actually, they are working
independently on projects
they select themselves from
a card file compiled by
Bredwell
These 200-300 cards are
composed of 7 levels of
difficulty. As a student
progresses, the projects
become more unstructured
and he must learn to think
independently.
Bredwell noted that no 2
students take exactly the
same route on their projects,
but all end up with the same
type of knowledge.
One of the advantages of
the card system, according
to Bredwell, is that it helps
solve individual reading
problems. The piles of
reference books, many of
which belong to Bredwell,
are coded to these cards.
They are also at different
levels of reading difficulty.
He explained that using
this kind of teaching method
can be extremely frustrating
at times. The normal learnmg curve goes up at a steady
steady rate, in contrast to
this type of learning, he said.
In his classes, students may
show liftle progress for as
long as 6 weeks, but then the
curve goes almost straight
up.
Bredwell said he wants the
kids to do 2 things -- to learn
and to take responsibility for
what they're doing. He said
the students acceptrthjs jand
see him less as,a"ihreaf, and
more as a resource person.
"I TRY TO manipulate the
environment, allowing
students to explore," he said.
"Their attitude toward
learning is as important as
the learning itself," he added.
His 7th grade classes
aren't quite as unstructured
as the 8th grade, but they do
undertake many activities
on their own initiative.
Bredwell said this is because
the kids come from a
traditionally
structured
elementary school, .and
aren't quite ready to guide
themselves yet
These 2 fellows are putting together a Time Line on the ceiling of their classroom.
Allyn Finkbeiner (left) and Tom Klein are working on the line, which covers time from
the origin of the earth to the arrival of man on the moon. The scale is 250,000 years per

mm
Earth Science teacher Dean Bredwell helps an 8th grade student with her individual project..In addition to regular
activities taken from the coded activity cards, each student is required to formulate l individual project on his own.
"The 7th grade class is a
good 'buffer'
between
elementary school and the
8th grade," he remarked.
"They still do things on their
own, though."
Bredwell said he plans to
eventually go through all the
earth science books and code
the various activities on
punch cards. He hopes this
will aid in information
'Vetceveal.^'Pfpend

Last summer he went to a
teacher's institute in Texas
for 6 weeks on a National
Science Foundation grant,
and plans to spend 10 weeks
this year at Ohio State, also
on a NSF grant, to branch
out into the environmental
aspects of Earth Science
Bredwell's class, entitled
"Earth an'd your Community" is locally-oriented

more relevant to his
students. Most students said
they enjoy the class. One
student was overheard
saying, "I really dig it."

Clinton soil mop survey is complete
ST JOHNS - Derrill M. Shinabery,
chairman Clinton County Board of
Commissioner, was present when
Glenn A. Weesies, Soil Scientist with
the US. Soil Conservation Service,
mapped the last acre of the Clinton
County Soil Survey. This survey covers
all of the 365,440 acres of Clinton County
which began in June of 1964* and the
lastacrewas mapped May the 4th, 1973.
The Clinton County Board of Commissioners contracted with the
U.S.D.A. Soil Conservation Service to
complete this soil survey.
According to Karl Pregitzer, SCS Soil
Survey Party Leader, the Soil Survey
field maps will be prepared for
reproduction, data collected in the field
will be analyzed and interpretations
will be developed for use of these soils.
The completed soil survey report will
contain detailed soil maps of the entire
county mounted on an aerial photo
base. It will contain a general soil map
for broad, regional planning.' It will
contain descriptions' of the soils'
mapped in the county. It will suggest
use and management of these soils for
farming, woodlands and wildlife. It will
list the limitations of these soils for
highway construction, agricultural
drainage, farm ponds, recreation,
residential development and use as
sewage disposal fields
According to Pregitzer, the report
will be completed by his staff by next
fall. It then must be reviewed and
edited by various state and national soil
scientists and then sent to the U.S.
Government Printing Office. "We
might expect the Published Report to
be ready for distribution in 3 years,"
states'Pregitzer.
In the meantime, a limited supply of
soil map reoroductions and soil in-
formation will be available at the SCS
office in St Johns, They are also
available at various county and
township offices. Soil map reproductions of the last two townships will be
available by early summer.
Anyone desiring soil information may
obtain it at the St Johns office. Personnel are available to give technical
field assistance to anyone desiring help
with problems relating tosoiland water
conservation. To obtain information
and assistance, come to the Clinton

some of her students in their reading corner. The bathtub, decorated by her class, has

Dear friends,
WE HAVE SPECIAL COMBINATION ADVERTISING
RATES FOR DISPLAY ADS, TOO.
It deserves emphasis that
the time, the place, the character1 or the funeral service,
the merchandise used, the
cemetery selected - these are
decisions of the family of the
deceased. The funeral director acts only as a representative of the family.
The* clergyman should be
consulted In matters that concern him before anydecisions
are made.
That we provide all the services a
funeral director should provide is
not nearly as important as how we
provide them: with feeling.

Woman foils y^ung intruder
OVID--Getting their "first
with the most" by a 75-yearold Ovid woman led police
authorities in the apprehension of 17-year-old
runaway from Whitmore
Lake Boys Training Unit,
who later admitted to
previous crimes in Clinton
County.
About 3 am May 5, Mrs
Ernest Goodfellow, 9395^E
Taft Rd, Ovid, heard
someone trying to enter her
home.
Mrs Goodfellow told
Clinton County Sheriffs Dept
deputies that she felt it was
better to meet him while he
was outside rather than
having him trap her in the
house.
She met him -'with a
pistol.
That was enough to send
the intruder away, but
stopped at a neighbor's
home, Art Kelly Sr, and'
asked him if he would help
tow his car out of Mrs
Goodfellow's yard.
Police were called, but the
youth got the car out "and
•KlinRTM
drove away on Hollister Rd.
A Clinton deputy chased
him at a high rate of speed,
until the car hit a M e in the
road, blew a right front tire
and went into the ditch.
The youth fled on foot and
a warning shot was fired, but
he did not halt.
Ovid, Bath and State
Police assistance iwas
requested and tracking dogs
followed the youth, 'but lost
the scent after about a mile.
Investigation found the
auto was stolen and belonged
to a Haslett man who did not
>
know the car was gone.
Clinton * Deputies and
Meridian Township police
apprehended the youth at '
Lake Lansing and Marsh
Roads across from Lake
Lansing amusement park.
The juvenile then admitted
to another attempted car
theft and 1972 breaking and >
enterings of Gowers Hard^1
ware in Eureka and Beck's
Farm Market north of St
Johns.
Officials returned the
youth to Whitmore Lake
Boys Training Unit.

Groundbreaking ceremonies were held May 6 for the new First Church of God in St
Johns. Architects for the structure are Johnson Ritchhart. and Associates, Inc, of Anderson, Ind. The new facility, to be located at the corner of DeWitt Rd and M-21, will

Trezise calls for
property tax relief
A call for complete
revision of Michigan's
property tax'law was1 issued
this week*' by
State
Representative R. Douglas
Trezise (R-Owosso") in a
resolution
presented
Thursday in the Michigan
Legislature.
Citing the present law,
dating back to 1893, ^as
•'impossible to administer"
and "inequitable", Rep
Trezise's resolution directs
the Michigan Law -Revision
Commission to undertake a
complete review of the
'General Property Tax 'Act
and develop a law which can
be uniformly and equitably
administered.
Rep Trezise was joined by
43 other representatives of
both political parties in the
introduction
of
the
resolUiion.-i|t takes 6nJy'€6
votes to adopt the resolution
jn the House.
"Work-with local units of
government at the House
Taxation Committee has
convinced me that further
patch-work amendments to
our property tax law will not
solve our problem", Rep
Trezise commented. "Today
we have sincere public officials from the local
assessor and' the county
equalization department, to
the State Tax Commission in
constant conflict, each
trying to do his part in the
complicated business of
fixing assessments and
equalization factors. It's not
the people but the law itself
that causes the fproblem",
he
added."

Those who know Bill realize that his long time membership on the St. Johns school board is but one of his
many community involvements. His interest and
concern in qivic events-has led him to be most active in
such other things "as the United Fund, the
Congregational Church and a broad variety of youth
activities, Despite his busy schedule he is never,
without time for the young people and his desire to,
provide them with enjoyment as well as leadership has

"light of day", but a tax
relief package which will cut
the taxes of every person and
business in the state has
been adopted by the
Legislature and sent to the
Governor for approval. It
was very gratifying, both as
a legislator and a taxpayer
to be able to vote into law the
first general tax reduction in
the state's history.
The tax bills adopted last
week have been changed
significantly from the
versions
which
were
originally introduced into the
House, but they will still
provide some $380 million in
tax relief over the next two
years, and I believe that the
changes made will result in
even .more equitable and
broad-based relief than was
offered earlier.
The property tax has
undoubtedly beenMhe most
talked about tax over the
past year, and I'm happy to
report that the bills passed
will provide some much
needed relief to many of the
state's citizens. The final
version provides that the
state will reimburse all
citizens for 60% of the
a mount which their property
taxes exceed 3.5% of their
income, up to a maximum
benefit of $500.
The "proposal was even
more generous with senior
citizens, the blind and
veterans. Senior citizens will
be reimbursed for the entire
amount 'by which their
property taxes exceed 3.'5%
of their income, with a
sliding scale providing
additional reimbursements
for incomes less than $6,000
up to a maximum of $500
benefit. The blind will be
exempt from property taxes
if their homestead state
equalized valuation is less
than $3,500. If their SEV
exceeds $3,500, the exemption would be a ratio of $3,500
to their SEV, up to a
mximum of $500 benefit. The
local unit of government
would be reimbursed for the
taxtloss by the, state-Eligible
vpferansrand (I j§rdow^ wi^l,
receive
prop u erty ij .jtax
exemptions pro-rated according to scheduled SEV
allowances with no income
or SEV ceiling.
To provide some relief to
virtually all taxpayers, the,
state personal income tax
exemption will be raised
from $1,200 to $1,500.
One major change made in
the law adopted from the bill
originally proposed is in the
relief provided for Michigan
businesses. The bill would
have reduced, the corporate
franchise fee from the
present 5 mills to 4 mills or
by 20%. In order to provide
some relief to all businesses
both
corporate
and
unicorporated, in place of
the franchise fee reduction,
there will be an income tax
credit of 25% granted for the
inventory tax paid by all
businesses.
Additional tax reductions
are provided by reducing the
intangibles tax from 50« to
40C per $1,000 and increasing
.credit from $100 to $175 for
individual tax returns and
from $200 to $350 for joint tax
returns.
All of these tax reductions
become effective next

Organic-food is produced
inorganically
By WILLIAM LASHER
Extension Agriculture Agent
Many advocates of organic
farming and gardening do
not understand how plants
utilize nutrients in the soil.
The term "organic"
generally refers to growing
crops with natural fertilizer
(plant
and
animal
materials) and without the
aid
of
manufactured
chemical
fertilizers.
Chemical fertilizers are
considered"inorganic".
Iiupomparing organic andi
inorganic materials, it is
wrong to think that plants
considered organically
grown are produced from
organic nutrients.
, Before a plant can take up
nutrients from organic
material in the soil, the
material is first broken down'
and converted to inorganic
nutrients. Therefore, the so
called organically produced
food actually is inorganically
grown.
<<ThiS'>means that when a
plant takes up a nutrient

from the soil, it neither
knows or cares whether the
nutrient was manufactured
in a chemical fertilizer or
grew naturally in plantf or
animal materials.
Chemical fertilizers can
provide a readily available
source of nutrients where
optimum conditions do not
exist for organic materials in
the soil to' decompose or
convert to nutrients.
Using
inorganic
or
chemical fertilizers is a
matter of economics for a
large farm operator. Several
tons per acre of organic
fertilizer (animal manure
and plant materials) are
needed to prevent nutrient
deficiencies in many field
crops.
A small gardener may
have no trouble getting
, enough organic fertilizer and
he should use it where
sources are available.
Inorganic
fertilizer,
nitrpgen, actually creates
organic matter in "the soil. It
enhances plant growth and
thus increases the quality of
organic plant residues
returned to the soil as stalksK
stems, leaves, roou>, etc
These needed materials
improve the condition of the
soil. Inorganic fertilizers are
unjustly accused of contributing v to pollution. The
major
pollutant
from
agriculture
is
stream
sedimentation caused by soil
erosion.
Fertile soils are less easily
eroded than run-down soils
and therefore cause less
pollution.
Eroded soil along newly
constructed highways is a
good example of low-fertility
soil. Topsoil has been
removed and the subsoil
cannot sustain enough
vegetation
to prevent
erosion.
Proper use of fertilizer and
increased vegetation can
decrease rather than increase pollution.
In further defense of
inorganic fertilizers, there is

Even with our lukewarm

Over the past 2 decades,
the air conditioning industry
has grown by a phenomenal
2,000 percent, according to
Schafer Heating & Air
Conditioning, Inc. of Fowler.
Installation of central air
conditioning systems in US
homes topped the million
mark for the first time last
year.
The continued increase in
the sales of central systems
may be largely attributed to
a greater awareness on the
part of homeowners of the
benefits of air conditioning.
Today's buyer is more
acutely aware that air
conditioning provides more
than just cooling; that a
"whole house" system also
provides filtering and
humidity control that results,
in a cleaner, healthier indoor
environment.
Accessories
available
today such as electronic air
cleaners and humidifiers can
turn an air conditioning
system into a "total comfort" system.
Additionally, more and
more homeowners are
realizing that air conditioning represents an investment in home improvement that can more

REGIONAL
INFORMATION MANAGEMENT

The foremost goal of
RIMS was to establish an
integrated information
system between regional
agencies and the Commission. Publications from
the program include:
'The "Community Profile
and Data Bdok" \vh\ch takes
a cpmmunity by community

and transportation from the
1940, 1950, 1960, and 1970

The outcome oi this
research is the "Housing
Market Analysis: Tri-County
Region of Michigan" which
examines! the operation of
the regional housing market
in light of past trends and
likely, future occurrences.
PLANNING HANDBOOK
"Basic Questions About
Community Planning" was
created to serve interested
citizens, new planning
commissions, and new
members of established
planning commissions.
The handbook answers a
variety of questions about
the roles and functions of
planning commissions and
professional planners in a
brief and concise manner.
System for the^Tri-Couniy
Region" which covers the
design and implementation
of an information exchange
program between public and
private agencies, The
Commission would act as a
clearinghouse
on
Information. Organizations
would acquaint the Commission with their information, and the Commission'would create a
bibliography of what is
available; were to find it,
and inwhatform. This would
make research easier and
prevent
the
costly
duplication of information
rarely used.
DRAINAGE
Four major projects were
completed under the 1972
region-wide drainage

The clean, stark grandeur of modern architecture
is enhanced by textured Miami Brick that keeps
its bright new look year after year, never
darkens, chips or shales. Rain washes a Miami
Brick building free of dirt and restores its
original beauty and brilliance.

The natural elegance of Miami Brick transforms any home into a showplace, customdesigned for the discriminating home owner. Miami Brick adds warmth and textural
interest to interiors — combines handsomely with wood, metal, glass and other
materials for enduring walls a"nd fireplace settings. A wide range of pastel hues offers
unlimited decorating'possibilities.
