Stellar Communities grant would bring major change to Wabash County by Ashley Flynn features@thepaperofwabash.c om Wabash County was recently named one of six finalists in the Stellar Communities Pilot Program, which is a collaboration between the Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs (OCRA), Indiana Housing and Community Development Authority (IHCDA), and the Indiana Department of Transportation) (IDOT), to give rural communities funding for comprehensive community development projects. Twenty-four communities submitted Letters of Interest outlining a 3-5 year comprehensive plan. A steering committee of 15 people helped identify needs of Wabash County. “We’ve focused on downtown,” Bill Konyha, President and CEO of the Economic Development Group of Wabash County, told The Paper of Wabash in an interview. “In essence, we’ve focused on Wabash Street, Canal Street, Market Street and Miami Street in an effort to make a high visibility, high impact change in the

for us. We want to be a destination for arts, entertainment and tourism. We will end up there, but this grant would make us end up there maybe five years sooner,” Konyha said. Projects included in the Letter of Interest were a new Ivy Tech campus, restoration to the Eagles Theatre, Charley Creek Inn Expansion, a Splash pad added to the existing skate park, Paradise Spring Outdoor Amphitheater, Public Arts Program, complete and extend the city trail system, façade improvement program, exterior work to the Wabash County Historical Museum, Market Street housing rehabilitation, Rock City Lofts and create a Community Services Center. The Letter of Interest states that many of these projects are already underway, which the Stellar Communities program will like. Bill Konyha, Mayor Vanlandingham, and other members of the community attended a Stellar Communities workshop in Indianapolis last week where they met with representatives from OCRA, IHCDA and IDOT. “We talked about our proposal, Letter of Interest, and what their expectations were. We learned how important it is to them for us to include projects that can happen this year. They want that, and we have three or (continued on page 5)

Heartland Precision Machining course trains students for manufacturing market Hallmark

SQUAWKIN’ EGG-DROPPIN’ HEN

HEARTLAND CAREER CENTER’S NEW FADAL Vertical Mining Center, received from Ivy Tech in Kokomo. The milling center is equipped with a 21-tool Automatic Tool Changer and coolant. Students will learn to write codes and learn programming that makes computerized machines operate.

by Ashley Flynn The Precision Machining class at Heartland Career Center has just acquired a FADAL Vertical Mining Center (VMC) from Ivy Tech in Kokomo. This milling center is equipped with a 21tool Automatic Tool Changer (ATC), and coolant. Many Hoosiers do not realize that Indiana ranks as one of the top 10 manufacturing states in this country. Data from the U.S. Department of Commerce (2010) puts Indiana as the “top dog” when it comes to the impact of manufacturing on its overall economy, accounting for 25 percent of Indiana’s economic output, almost $64 billion of its gross domestic products. Therefore training a competent, experienced manufacturing workforce has been made a priority by local educators and business people alike. Because of this, Heartland Career Center has been the beneficiary, especially in its Precision Machining Program. Partnering with the local Ivy Tech and many of the community businesses, this program has really improved its overall operations. “What a great asset to our program. It allows students to take their studies to the next level, writing code and learning programming that makes these computerized machines operate,” Mr. Terry Shoemaker, Heartland’s Precision Machining instructor said about the new FADAL VMC. This on-going partnership with Ivy Tech has also benefited stu-

dents in that they are now able to obtain college credits while working in high school courses. In addition, students have the chance to earn industry based NIMS Certification (National Institute for Machining Skills) once they complete the course and testing requirements. “(Coming into the job) I knew I was going to bring it to the 21 Century. I knew that I was going to attempt to bring CAD/CAM to it, so they (the students) would have a real world understanding of what’s out there in the job market, and they can compete in the job market. Or, they can go to their four year engineering schools and be better prepared to understand what engineering design is all about plus make the parts,” Shoemaker told The Paper of Wabash. The Precision Machining class prepares students for jobs anywhere from production to entry-level engineering. “We basically bring them from no knowledge of machining and we prepare them up to engineering design. We prepare them for all of it,” said Shoemaker. Students in the Precision Machining class may eventually end up in jobs such as CAD/CAM programmer, Manufacturing Design Engineer, E n g i n e e r i n g Technologist, Toolmaker, Tool Gage Maker, Mold Maker, Production Machinist or Production Manager. Heartland has also benefited from local business participation in the education

process. Most recently, Millwright Services and Kellam Construction provided the equipment and manpower to relocate the FADAL (CNC) machine to Heartland. Other companies have provided materials, on-site field trips, and guest speakers to educate students and provide them with real world experiences. Some of these companies have included: Delaware Dynamics (Muncie), Instrumed (Warsaw), NGI I n s t r u m e n t s (Warsaw), Global Precision Machining (Wabash), Hipsher Tool and Die (Wabash), Dalton C o r p o r a t i o n (Warsaw), Symmetry Medical (Warsaw, Claypool), Schlemmer (Wabash), and Depuy (Warsaw). One local company, Ford Meter Box, has recently expressed an interest in partnering for internships and possibly job placements for students as they receive their training at Heartland. With manufacturing as such an intricate part of Indiana’s economy, Heartland’s Precision Machining course is designed to help train the up-coming workforce. Students are able to learn the basics in tools and machinery, as well as experience real life skills to excel in the manufacturing

Upcoming Ivy Tech ‘boot camp’ in Logansport

L O G A N S P O R T, Ind.—Ivy Tech Community College Logansport will be offering two enrollment boot camps. The first boot camp will be held on Monday, April 1 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. with the second being held on Wednesday, May 22 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The purpose of the boot camps is to help prospective students with busy schedules get through the enrollment process in one visit to

campus. “We piloted this concept of a one-trip enrollment process in the fall of 2012,” said Suzanne Dillman, Associate Vice Chancellor for Student Services. “It was a huge success! We had nearly 80 students go through the entire enrollment process in one day. Usually it takes students multiple trips to campus to complete all of the enrollment steps. What we’ve

heard from past participants is how much they appreciate our taking this approach. Our students have very busy lives. Most work. Many have families. Having to make multiple trips often creates a barrier.” Those who participate in Ivy Tech Enrollment Boot Camp can expect to get through (or finish if they’ve already started) the enrollment process and be ready to start summer classes on June 10 or fall classes on Aug. 19. College recruiters will help students complete the admission application if they haven’t already, complete new student orientation, complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) if they haven’t already, complete the placement assessment, and select the appropriate courses for the summer or fall semesters. Note: Students may waive the assessment by having previous college credit or SAT scores of 460+, ACT scores of 17+, or PSAT scores of 46+. Currently, students may have to come to campus as many as four times before they are actually enrolled. This approach will eliminate those

repeated trips. “We were delighted to see how students responded to this a c c e l e r a t e d approach,” said Dillman. Dillman noted that, as expected, two audiences have dominated prior Boot Camps: Working adults who have such busy schedules that multiple trips create huge barriers and the traditional, right-out-ofhigh-school students who decide that going away to college may have to wait for financial reasons. Additional students expected to attend are those who went off to a big university and realized they weren’t ready. “We’re already hearing from parents and some students who want to transfer in college credit to Ivy Tech.” Parents are encouraged to attend with their college-bound student. Participants who have not filed for financial aid should bring their 2012 tax returns. A financial aid associate will walk them through filing the FAFSA. Students who plan to attend any Ivy Tech Kokomo Region campus in the summer or fall should plan to come to boot camp if this approach works best for them. What is covered in Boot Camp is applicable to any Kokomo Region Ivy Tech student. Additional staff will be ‘deployed’ from the outlying Kokomo Region campuses to assist with the event so participants are assured excellent customer service and leave the event confident that they are prepared to begin their

Stellar Communities grant... continued from front page four projects that we can make happen this year. They really want us to demonstrate regional impact, and a couple of our projects do,” Konyha said. “We enjoy as a community the great relationships between funding agencies. Specifically since I’ve been here, every time they’ve given us a grant to economic development, to Marketplace, to the city, we have done exactly what we said we were going to do exactly the way we’ve said we were going to do it. They trust us. On top of that, this community has down an uncanny ability to fund projects like the YMCA, Charley Creek Inn, and the museum. These things have

been done without any government money in them. It is important for the funds that come from this grant can leverage private investment,” Konyha said. Resource availability and leveraging of community assets and partnerships was a criterion on which the Letters of Interest were evaluated. In the six years Konyha has been position, Wabash County has leveraged 278 million dollars in private investment throughout the county. “They really like that,” he said. “We have a history of stable leadership; they like that.” The steering committee’s next step is to

jobs. We need young people who are smart and can look at things differently. We have a

lot of young people involved in the leadership of our organizations.” “Wabash County, in our 10 county region, has the highest graduation rate. Wabash City Schools is number one in the region for getting tax dollars into the classroom. We are the poster child of how to do it right, and I really believe that. The advantage that Wabash City Schools have, is that our superintendent is 36 years old,” Konyha said. “If we can prioritize correctly and we can present projects now at this point that meet their goals and targets, then I like our chances. I think this community has done

davit, officers with the Probation Department conducted a walk-through of the residence, locating several bottles of iodine and lye. A trashcan was also located near the back porch, which was found to contain several paper matchbooks with the striker plates removed. It was then determined by Drug Task Force officers that Eades had been manufacturing methamphetamines using the highly volatile red phosphorous method. Red phosphorous labs, also known as

“red-p labs” may create phosphine gas, which is fatal if inhaled. Labs using this method are also more likely to explode as the catalyst to the production is, in itself, an igniter used in matchbooks and fireworks. At that time, officers removed everyone from the residence and awaited members of the Indiana State Police’s C l a n d e s t i n e Methamphetamine Lab Team to dismantle the lab and dispose of the chemicals. As part of the plea agreement, Eades’

prioritize projects. The Ivy Tech Campus is among the top of the list because of its regional impact, high visibility, and it fits all the parameters necessary. A main goal of Wabash is to attract young professionals. “We’re trying to impact economic and cultural aspects,” Konyha said. “Millennials are so important for the workforce. Workforce development is economic development, and that means education and training.” “The reason we need to attract millennials is we need to attract 21st century

everything it needs to do to meet these projects,” he said. “Whether or not we get the grant, it’s been a great process because it’s brought people together even more and operating even better than we already were,” Konyha said. “We were already operating like a Stellar Community, but we now have identified lots of different areas and potentials for us in the future.” Even if Wabash County is not granted the Stellar Communities grant, which will go to two rural communities, the committee will still move forward with the projects. “The purpose of the Stellar Program is to

make communities behave in a stellar way. Well, we are. We have behaved like this for five years. We have collaborated and worked together and it goes back to the mayor at the beginning of his terms reaching out to the county commissioner and to North Manchester. It’s the spirit of cooperation. Even if we don’t get this grant, we’ve identified these projects and the direction we

want to move, and it’s the direction we were moving in anyway. What stellar does, is it helps us move faster,” said Konyha. Next, the steering committee will meet regularly to prioritize and discuss plans. They have until April 28 to get their final proposal in, and then site visitations will be conducted in May. Winners will be announced in June.

Local resident pleads guilty to Class D Felony possession of precursors

David Eades by Brent Swan David Eades, 41, 8652S 400W, Wabash, pled guilty to Class D Felony possession of precursors Feb. 15 in Wabash Circuit Court. Eades’ plea was part of a plea agreement entered by Wabash County Prosecutor Bill Hartley. In return for his guilty plea, a Class B Felony charge of attempted dealing in methamphetamine

was dropped. Eades was formally sentenced March 18 by Wabash Circuit Court Judge Robert McCallen III. The arrest came after a confidential informant provided the Indiana State Police information about Eades’ involvement in manufacturing methamphetamines inside his Wabash County residence. After verifying the informant’s information, officers with the Wabash Drug Task Force accompanied officers from the Wabash County P r o b a t i o n Department and the Wabash County Sheriff ’s Department to conduct a house check. According to the probable cause affi-

sentence will run consecutive to his pending sentence in Howard County for charges unrelated to this case.

Rep. Kubacki stands strong in the fight against meth STATEHOUSE State Representative Rebecca Kubacki spoke at the Association of Cities and Towns (IACT) Legislative Day at the Indiana Statehouse in support of continuing the fight against meth. Rep. Kubacki joined Governor Mike Pence, Mayor Joe Thallmer of Warsaw and Mayor Lloyd Winnecke of

Evansville in a presentation outlining the legislative bodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s agenda for IACT members. The Indiana House of Representatives has already passed legislation to curtail issues relating to meth. During the 2013 session so far, Rep. Kubacki has coauthored House Bill 1064 that adds ammonium chloride, potas-

sium iodide, and calcium chloride to the list of chemical reagents and precursors for creating meth. The legislation would make possessing these chemicals in combination a Class D felony. The bill would aid cities and towns in prosecuting those who create meth based on the chemicals they possess. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have been mak-

ing progress, but we are not where we need to be in this fight. By limiting the local governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s control over the fight against meth, we are tying their hands,â&#x20AC;? said Rep. Kubacki. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not enough. We need to do more.â&#x20AC;? The Indiana Association of Cities and Towns offers Indianaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s municipal officials a means to

Commissionerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Proclamation for Indiana Severe Weather Awareness Week Severe Weather Preparedness Week runs from March 2430. On March 27, a statewide test will be conducted by emergency management agencies and law enforcement agencies. Two tests of the statewide alert system and weather radios will be con-

ducted between 1010:30 a.m. and 7-7:30 p.m. It is recommended that all government offices, businesses and schools conduct tests of their severe weather plans to coincide with the statewide tests. Wabash County EMA is also offering 75 free weather radios to those who not able to purchase a weather

radio for their home. These radios will be handed out on a first come first serve basis with priority going to persons residing in mobile homes. For more information, please contact the Wabash County EMA office between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday thru Friday at 260-563-3181 or toll free 1-866-288-

come together, educate and sponsor their interests in front of state and federal governments. Members of the IACT came together at the Statehouse today to support initiatives in making pseudoephedrine a controlled substance in order to control the current meth problem in Indiana. They advocate for more local control to allow cities and towns to deal with their individualized meth problems. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Gov. Daniels started the Meth Free Indiana Coalition in 2005, and we are still fighting this issue

even after he has left office. This issue is not going away, and we need to tackle this issue head on. I will

continue to support measures that fight this epidemic,â&#x20AC;? said Rep. Kubacki.

Dear Editor, In my letter last month, I encouraged people to, at the least, ask God for another Great Awakening in America when they sit and give God thanks for their food three times a day. I heard from a number of people that they were in wholehearted agreement! As we prepare to celebrate Christ’s Resurrection from the dead (Easter), may we as a people call upon God to again bring life from the dead and wake up a sleeping and often dead church, as well as bring a great spiritual awakening to culture

at large. It is important to know that Awakenings are not simply times of enhanced personal religious experience. During a renewal, or awakening, there will be not only a great reviving of Christians, but also a large impact on the problems of society. Awakenings have social impact. In the wake of spiritual awakenings comes social restoration. Corrupt, immoral, unjust, and ungodly people and societies can return to honesty, purity, justice, and holiness. Culture can be transformed - but

first must come transformed people. Will Americans hear this call? Is it possible for America to experience another Great Awakening? Yes, it is. But she will have to meet the requirements that God has set out in Holy Scriptures: If my people, who are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways: then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. God is waiting for His Church to humble herself. God is waiting for His Church to

pray and seek His face. God is waiting for His people to turn from their wicked ways. Many have questioned: Can awakening ever happen again in North America? Revivalist Andrew Gih said it well: “God’s time for revival is the very darkest hour, when everything seems hopeless. It is always the Lord’s way to go to the very worst cases to manifest His glory.” Please, pray for America. Happy Resurrection Day! Pastor Tim Morbitzer Victory Christian Fellowship

Salvage yards receive and storewrecked vehicles containing antifreeze, gasoline, oil, brake fluid, transmission fluid, batteries, mercury switches and tires.

Commissioner Thomas Easterly. “This is a great example of how we can work with a particular business sector and help them find ways to improve their process while protecting Hoosiers and our environment. Auto salvage yards are an important part of Indiana’s economy. Car Recyclers, Inc. has shown that by properly managing the wastes generated by their salvage operations, they can pro-

tect the environment while operating a viable business.” IDEM is committed

The Charley Creek Inn will offer a delicious Easter Brunch on

Adults ~ $17.50 Children 12 & under ~ $9.50

Artistica Gallery manager, Joyce DeVore is pleased to announce the first art show and reception of 2013 with the opening of artist Abbie Parmele’s one-woman show, “Theater in the Sky”. As a former flight attendant with American Airlines, Abbie Parmele is ready to hop on a plane at a moment’s notice. With passport and camera in hand, she shoots pictures from an artistic point of view and creates paintings from her photographs in her studio. Theatre in the Sky is a selection of her oil paintings that reflect an aerial perspective of the cloud formations created by the powerful forces of nature counterbalancing with nature’s serene peacefulness.

The paintings draw the viewer into the vortex of cloud colors, shapes and formations to ignite all of their senses and transport them into the realm of the paintings. Receiving her inspiration from nature, Abbie “draws energy from a rainstorm, a sunset, or a walk along the beach.” This inspirational energy spills over into her collages, paintings, inspirational purses and jewelry designs. Abbie grew up in rural southeast Iowa. She moved to Indiana to attend Fort Wayne Art Institute, and graduated as a fine art major. She did further study at Indiana University-Fort Wayne. Her artworks have been exhibited in a wide variety of venues including but

not limited to Hoosier Art Salon, Columbia Club, Hilbert Circle Theatre, Indiana State Fair, IUN Gallery for Contemporary Art and Martha’s Vineyard Island Art Show. Abbie’s art will be on display and for sale from April 5 through April 23, with an opening reception where you can meet and talk with Abbie on April 5, the first Friday from 5 to 8 p.m. Refreshments will be served. Everyone is invited to attend this reception and show at Artistica Gallery, located in Historic Downtown Wabash at 70 West Market Street.

LAFONTAINE AND SOMERSET

March 27, 2013

Ethel Eib 765-981-4054 etheleib @yahoo.com

L A F O N TA I N E LIONS met on Thursday, March 14 at 7 p.m. in the Lions room at the L a F o n t a i n e Community Building with Lion Tom Willcox as host. Lion President Larry Eib opened the meeting with Lion Tom Polk giving the prayer and Lion Norine Ramsey leading the Pledge to the Flag. The Secretary’s and Treasure’s reports were read and approved. Lion Larry read the Community Building report for the month of February and it was approved. A card was passed around for members to sign for Lion Andy Kirk on the loss of his mother. The club received a thank you letter from Indiana Lions Cancer Control for the club’s donation. A letter was received from Lions Leader Dog program telling of a ride by husband and wife who are Lion members on their planned ride of their motorcycles. They will be riding across United States in 24 days, covering 48 states to raise funds for Leader Dog. They will start on June 15 and finish on July 8. They have a Facebook page. Go to facebook.com/cyclingforleaderdogs to follow them. Election of officers will be at the next meeting. A reminder was given to everyone that we would fill the Easter eggs at the next meeting March 28. The Pancake breakfast and Easter egg hunt will be on Saturday, March 30. Breakfast will be from 8-11 a.m. The Easter egg hunt at the L a F o n t a i n e Elementary School grounds starts at 10 a.m. Tail Twister Lion Norine Ramsey read a very funny joke and gave out one fine. With no further business, the meeting was adjoined. The next meeting will be on Thursday, March 28, at 7 p.m. in the Lion room at the L a F o n t a i n e

Community Building with Lion Juanita Rapp as Host. ALL YOU CAN EAT PANCAKE AND SAUSAGE will be served on Saturday, March 30, at 8-11 a.m. at the LaFontaine Community Building. Easter Egg Hunt for children 4th grade and under will be held at the LaFontaine Elementary School Grounds at 10 a.m. LaFontaine Lions Community Project. THE MARCH MEETING FOR LAFONTAINE LITERARY CLUB was held at the Troyer Library with CeCe Wood as hostess. Patricia Walters called the meeting to order and the members recited the Pledge to the American Flag and the American Creed. Roll call was answered by stating favorite plays. The minutes were read. The Treasure’s report was not available to be read. An offering was taken to be donated to the Troyer Library. Condoleezza Rice’s autobiography was purchased for the library and is available for check out. Another book, to be decided, will be chosen in memory of Ruth Martin. When the new fiber optic service comes into LaFontaine, the library will have wi-fi and five computers available to the community. Juanita Rapp reported that the June guest luncheon is in the planning. Beth Loschiavo sent a signup sheet around for an update on email, phone and address information and also a sign-up sheet for next year’s meetings. She had figured who needed to be hostess, program and/or serve on a planning event committee so it would be easier to see where people were needed. The booklet will be compiled and distributed at our June meeting. Patricia brought up the question as to why our officers are sworn in at the September meeting and not at the June meeting so that they may be working during the summer to prepare for the beginning of meetings in the fall. The members are to think on this and we will vote on it at our next meeting. Announcements of interest to the group were made. The next meeting will be at Sally Arvin’s house with Rosemary Barnes in charge of

the program. The club collect was recited and we went into the program. Janice Dawes gave us a report on the book, College of the Ozarks, a work school, located near Branson, Missouri, sometimes referred to as “ H a r d w o r k University”. In 1907, an itinerate preacher was aware of the poor students in the Ozark Mountains that could not afford college so the school began. The students pay no tuition but must work in one of the areas that the school offers such as on their farm, mill, canning factory, making jams and jellies and their famous fruitcakes, in exchange for a quality education. The school is mainly financed by endowments and has welcomed many important guests such as, Pat Nixon, Margaret Thatcher, Colin Powell, Gerald Ford and many others who promote the school for the work that it is doing for so many students. The motto of the school is: Why Come Ye Here? They stress the education of the heart, head, hand, faith and flag. Christian character is most important. This is a school that you might want to visit yourself. Thank you, Janice Dawes, for a fine informative program. Thanks to Ce Ce for the delicious refreshments.

Wabash resident receives Gilman Scholarship to study abroad Kayla Sprayue, a Wabash resident studying telecommunications at Ball State University, has been awarded a $3,000 Gilman Scholarship to participate in Ball State’s London Centre this semester. She is the daughter of Brenda and Bryan Sprayue, also of Wabash. In London she is studying art history, theatre, British life and culture and global diversity. She also

has opportunities to travel in the United Kingdom and elsewhere in Europe. “The Gilman Scholarship is such an honor and blessing,” said Sprayue. “I have always dreamed of traveling abroad, and the Gilman Scholarship will help me achieve my dreams. I am very grateful for the opportunity to learn about culture, art and filmmaking in the United Kingdom.”

The federally-funded Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship Program provides up to $5,000 to U.S. undergraduate students pursuing academic studies abroad, in order to better prepare them to assume significant roles in an increasingly global economy and interdependent world. All Gilman Scholarship recipients are required to carry out a project upon their return to

lence that arose over whether that territory would be admitted as a free or slave state. Knarr has been unable to find any references from biographers or historians to the letters. Historical Society president Mary Chrastil praises Knarr for his dedication to local history research. “During the past 10 years, John has researched local history topics in 10 different states, various archives and state libraries, and the National Archives in Washington, D.C. We are so lucky that our Historical Society is able to publish original research through John’s efforts. Think about it; that’s what state and national publications do!” Knarr has produced research on topics as diverse as the 19th century Turnbull Wagon in the NMHS collection, the local cigar factory, and the life of Manchester-born journalist Frazier Hunt. “John doesn’t just report what he finds; he thoughtfully examines the material and can often document corrections to earlier publications through his original research.” Three years ago, Knarr succeeded in locating the gravesite of the Peter Ogan family in Lafayette. Ogan was a founder of North Manchester, and his activities after leaving Wabash County were previously unknown. Knarr is a graduate

of South Whitley High School and Manchester University, with a graduate degree from Columbia University and a Ph.D. from UCLA. He taught history and political science at the university level in eight states. Since 1999, he has operated an Internet rare book business and bookstore on Main Street in North Manchester. John edits the NMHS newsletter, serves on the NMHS board, and is the NMHS Webmaster. The website receives

Historical Society to Present “Pre-Civil War Marshall Family Correspondence and Sen. Stephen Douglas”

On Monday, April 8, the North Manchester Historical Society is very excited to offer a program by John Knarr, local historian, who will present his original research on the family of Thomas R.

Chairperson, Myra Perkins introduced the song “When the Saints Go Marching In” played on the piano by Eileen Dye and Peggy Coppler leading the group with kazoos and singing.

and most often played by a jazz band. “I Love a Piano” was played by Peggy Coppler and Eileen Dye. It was written by Irving Berlin and arranged for two pianos. The next number was “Basin Street Blues” played by Peggy on the piano. This song was written by Spencer Williams, published in 1926 and made famous by Louis Armstrong in 1928. Peggy and Eileen then played “Someone to Watch Over Me” on two pianos. This was composed by George Gershwin with lyrics by Ira Gershwin. It has been performed by numerous artists since its debut and is a jazz standard.

Indiana State Police Peru post release January stats

The Indiana State Police at the Peru Post released statistics for the month of January. Troopers issued 988 traffic citations and 1,986 written warnings. Troopers also arrested 25 impaired drivers and made 71 criminal arrests. There were 18 commercial motor vehicle citations, and the troopers investigated 46 vehicle crashes. Lt. Jeremy Kelly, district commander of the Indiana State Police Peru Post, would like to remind motorists to be aware of black ice during cold weather. Black ice occurs when water from melted snow or ice refreezes creating ice patches on roadways. “Road appearing to be wet may actually be ice covered. This is a common occurrence on bridges and overpasses,” stated Lieutenant Kelly. “Reduce your speed and drive defensively.”
