Judge White meted out the jail terms Tuesday to Pat Witherell, 17, of 2620 Timpson and William Atkinson i l l , 18, of Grand River Drive SE, following their ar-rest 24 hours earlier by Lowell police.

Injuries Fatal to Driver

leter-Siitarkn life ( j Serving Lowell, Ada, Cascade and Eastern Kent County

The first fatal accident of 1969 in Lowell was recorded Monday when a Saranac man died f rom injuries fustained a week earlier in a head-on crash on M-21.

Tha last previous fatal accident in the city . . . in which three persons died . . . al-so involved Saranac residents and happen-ed on May 9 ,1968 .

Dead f rom cerebral meningitis, the re-sult of a skull fracture and multiple head injuries, is 22-year-old Eugene R. Randall, who had resided in Lowell until recently.

Three other occupants in Randall's car and a woman passenger in another car were injured in the crash, none of them seriously.

Randall 's death, reported by attending physician Dr. Mark Harmeling, was the 28th in Kent County this year and the second on area roads in a week.

Last Thursday, a 20-month-old Caledon-ia boy suffered fatal injuries when struck while attempting to cross 66th Street near Campau Lake.

Dead is Jimmv Sanders, whose family resided in the Alto area before moving to Caledonia.

According to Kent County She r i f f s Deputy Jack Christensen, the Sanders boy ran across the road to enter a parked car in which his father, Bumice, was waiting for him.

He was struck by a car driven by Mary A. Summers, 24, of Alto and was pronounced dead on arrival at St. Mary's Hospital.

Manager's Departing... Or Is He?

Bernard C. Olson is scheduled to clean out his desk at Lowell city hall tomorrow . . . but chances are the recently-resigned city manager will leave behind a few pens and pencils for future work.

That was the indication following Mon-day's lengthy council session, which ended with a number of future projects and rou-tine chores still undecided and an obvious intent by the city fathers to hire Olson on a per-diem basis to handle some of the work.

Olson is scheduled to take over his new duties as General manager of Alignment Systems, Inc. in Grand Rapids next week.

" I would only be kidding you if 1 said 1 could get everything that needs to be done accomplished in four days," said Ol-son at the conclusion of the meeting.

Olson's final session in the manager's chair was more than three hours long as council members attempted to get the rec-ord straight on several pending matters.

A lively discussion regarding parking along Main Street and on Hudson Street, per a request f rom the State Highway De-partment, resulted in a rare split vote of the council.

Mrs. Virginia Myers, Harold Jefferies and Carlen Anderson voted in favor of a plan that would ban parking from Broad-way to Lincoln Lake on both sides of Main Street and a further ban on the west side of Hudson from Chatham to Main and on the east side from midway in the block to Main.

Mayor Arnold Wittenbach and Council-man Herb Reynolds both objected to the ' plan, citing the need for parking to service downtown merchants.

Council also learned, to its dismay, that the Michigan Public Service Commission may order a new safety signal device at the C & 0 crossing on South Hudson due to a report by a private individual that the in-tersection was the scene of a near-miss ac-cident recently.

The MPSC recently advised the city it must participate in installation of a signal on Foreman Road at an approximate cost of $17,500.

Much of the meeting was devoted to dis-cussion of money matters, during which council:

Approved payment of $558 to the archi-tect firm of McMillen, Palmer and Assc-i-ates for work done in developing plans to remodel or build a new city hail;

Agreed to forward $6,000 to the Kent County Department of Public Works for preliminary work done in connection with the proposed storm sewer and street im-provement plan;

Received an approved for payment a statement for $2,550 for auditing work by Alexander Grant and Company;

Instructed the city manager to proceed with the special assessment district for in-stallation of curbs and gutters on Laurie Gail Drive for an estimated $6,168;

Heard a report from Acting Chief of Po-lice James Hutson that a 25-mile-an-hour speed limit will be set in Valley Vista and that stop signs and yeild signs will be plac-ed at various intersections to help control traffic in the area; and

Adopted a resolution calling for Lowell Development Corporation to pay half of the expected engineering fees (Estimated at $2,200) incurred in connection with a new sewage lift station servicing the city's west side.

It's Auction Time Again!

BY SHIRLEY DYGERT

Whether Ada has a bigger and better fireworks display this Fourth of July will depend largely upon the competitive bid-ding spirit of those attending the fif th an-nual Fireman's Auction

The event is scheduled to start in the center of the village at 7 p.m. this Friday n i g h t . . . though articles that will go under the gavel will be on display earlier in the day.

Ada' fireworks spectacular has long been a summer tradition, but only in the past four years has the auction been used to develop a source of revenue to purchase the incendiary display.

In the past some live animals, horses, goats, and kittens have been on the block. But no more . . . that was too much trou-ble. However ; large appliances (that work), ladders, paintings, sinks, and antiques are among the varied articles to be found at the sale. No clothing will be available.

Donations will be gratefully accepted by the firemen. This will be a classic case of " the more the merrier."

Auctioneer for this year will be A1 Van-der Laan of Caledonia, who has donated his services for the non-profit project.

See Light Turnout in Lowell

Activity at the polls is expected to be considerably liahter in the Lowell Area School District s annual election next Mon-day than in the past three elections.

A light turnout is expected in view of the fact that incumbent Harold Metternick is running unopposed for the lone four-year term available on the board of Educa-tion.

f Superintendent Carl Hagen reminds vot-ers, however, that only registered electors owning taxable property in the district are eligible to vote on a special ballot whkh would require four rural d i s t r i c t s . . . Alton, Moseley, Ma pes and T a l b o t . . . to assume bonded indebtedness of the dis-trict under the reorganization plan of 1966 if approved.

"This issue is a vital one to the future of the district," said Hagen, "and requires the attention of all eligible voters having prop-erty assessed for taxes in any part of the district."

While the indebtedness ballot requires property ownership as a qualification, this is not true in the balloting for the lone va-cancy in the board.

X-RAY UNIT VISITS

The mobile X-ray unit of the Kent County TB, Health and Emphysema So-ciety will be in Lowell next Monday and Tuesday (June 9-10) between the hours of 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. to offer free X-ray service to area residents. The unit will be located at Christiansen's Drug Store on Main Street.

Bond Issue, Vacancy Feature Vote in FH

School officials remained hopefully optimistic to-day that taxpaying voters in the Forest Hills Public School District will approve a S2.9-million bond issue request in Monday's annual election.

Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. at Collins School, 4368 Heather Lane, and at Forest Hills High School Multi-Purpose Room, 5901 Hall Street.

Only qualified property owners in the district are eligible to vote on the bond issue proposal, which would raise monies needed to complete the present senior-junior high school complex.

In addition, all qualified voters will be asked to

vote in separate balloting on election of three mem-bejs of the Board of Education.

The additional seat became vacant with the resigna-tion of John Wardrop, who had served but one year of a four-year term before leaving the district.

Four candidates are seeking the short term seat. They are Mrs. Sarah Hamp, G m i t Lamain, Kenneth Klynstra and Roger Mathhews.

Incumbent board members running unopposed for the regular four-year terms are James Ranta and Wil-liam Colvin.

Superintendent Robert R. Masten has outlined plans that will call for expanding the present senior-junior high school complex to fit the anticipated school population needs of five years hence.

"We feel this project will answer the needs of our fast-growing district up to and including 1974 or 1975," said Masten. If further expansion is required at that time, it probably will have to be in a different area of the district."

Highlight features of the bond proposal include construction o f a 100,GOO-square foot building to house the upper two grades of the high school; reno-vation of the present senior high (which would house grades nine and ten) and addition of 20,000 square

feet, including 12 classrooms and a physical education

area and industrial arts area, at the junior high.

It is planned to incorporate a small auditorium and a non-spectator gymnasium in the proposed upper grade building.

Under the board's plao. bonded indebtedness would be raised 1.5 mills to 8.35 . . . below the limit of nine mills pledged by the board in the past.

All four candidates for the short term vacancy have been active in community affairs, as indicated in the following biographical sketches;

Volunteer Tutors Complete Project Seventeen itudenti from Forest Hills

High School liave completed a year of vol-unteer work in a program known as "One-to-One Tutoring.

Every Wednesday afternoon, students from the high school were driven to Vin-denberg School in Grand Rapids to help younger children with their school work.

They spent one hour a week in attempt-ing to motivate other children who were "under-achievers," either because Ihty

were below grade level and capable of do-

ina better work, or because they were con-sidered very blight, but had no initiative.

Students from Forest Hills who were part of a larger group tutoring at eleven schools in all were Barbara DeFouw, Kris Bishop, Nancy Corey, Carol Corey, Rosa-lyn Chipman, Kathy Ward, Janel Belding, Sandy Weathers, Bob Charters, Steve Ban-ta, LuAnne Shyer. Cary Ellis, Jan Shearer, Sue Witzel, Woody Palmer, Marcia Wright and Craig Chandler.

Acting as chaperones and drivers every week were Bob Cueni, assistant pastor of

Cascade Christian Church, and Mrs. Marsh-all Belding.

This program was begun in the fall of 1967 from i n idea presented to the Board of Education of Grand Rapids by Mrs. Al-ice LaBoer, director of community Action Volunteers at Sheldon Complex and by Reverend Donald Lester of Westminister Presbyterian Church.

Although the board was doubtful of its possible success, the program it conducted by 220 people, most of whom are high school and college students.

Cascade Township officials took action in Monday night's monthly meeting to clear the township of junk cars.

Eddie Sickrey, whose family owns prop-erty on 52nd Street,posted a SI,000 per- ' formance bond to clear 43Junk cars "from the premises on or before October 31.

Claude W. Chapman of 7195 60th St. \ / u given 30 days to clear up a similar sit-uation involving several junk cars.

Supervisor A1 Heemstra pointed out that there are statutes on tne township books preventing collecting of junk of any sort without permission.

The board also discussed the possibility

of creating a special assessment district to pay for installation of fire hydrants In the township. The yearly rental under the wa-ter contract with Grand Rapids is S40. There are 17 hydrants in the first water district installed recently and more are an-ticipated in a new water-sewer district now being establisJied.

The latter wiD be subject of a meetinr on June 24 by the water council, which hopes to have cost factors ready for study at that time.

The board acknowledged receipt of an

er for the township hall and fire depart-ment in case of emergency, has a price tag

emergency power generator from the Fed-eral Excess Property Administration. The unit which would be used to provide pow-

of $3,000, but was a gift of the FEPA in exchange for a mutual assistance pact by Cascade to respond to fires on Federally-owned forest lands.

Tabled for further study and possible adoption at the July meeting was a propos-ed new mobile home ordinance.

The board adopted a greenbelt ordi-nance to establish buffer zones between commercial or industrial and residential areas and repealed the transhipment zone, which in effect makes property so zoned in the p u t now industrial in nature.

A great gesture was made Friday night when the Forest Hills High School baseball team took the finals in the Wyoming Invitational Tourna-ment.

When the sponsor of the event called for Coach Math-ews and his Captain to receive the trophy, every man on the team walked forward, with the coach following. There was no captain . . . that's the way the coach and the boys wanted 11 . . . the whole season was a matter of team work and the rewards went to everyone equally And what a season . . . that record will be hard to match anywhere In the state.
