ELECTION CASE
HEARING HELD
IN LOCAL court

An oral motion, challenging the
jurisdiction of the Ottawa County
Common Pleas Court to hear and
determine the petition of Oak Har-
Dor Councilman Louis Brindley in
volving the recent election, was
taken under advisement Monday
forenoon by Judge James McCrys-
tai, Sandusky.
Judge McCrystal was assigned
to hear the case when Judge Tom
D. Stahl asked Chief Justice Carl
v. Weygandt, Columbus, for per-
mission to withdraw due to the
facts that he voted in Oak Harbor
and personally knows the princi-
pals and circumstances involved.
Judge Stahl currently is hearing
turnpike cases in Sandusky.
Brindley filed the petition to
contest the November 3 election
on grounds that "an unknown
number of voters were denied
their franchise Ito vote) because
of a shortage of ballots in Oak
Harbor's three precincts"
Brindley and Carl Noble, also
an incumbent councilman in Oak
Harbor, were defeated in the elec
ton by two newcomers, Graysor
Meyer and Lewis Wistenhausen
His petition was the first of its
kind ever filed in this county and
the case is believed to be the only
one in Ohio resulting from the re
cent election.
Prosecuting Attorney Myron Ro
sentreter, representing the Otta
wa County Board of Elections, ano
Atty. William Moon, representing
the six successful council candi
dates in Oak Harbor, asked Judge
McCrystal to throw out the cas'
and Attorneys Oliver True ant
Leslie Meyer, representing th'
contestors, filed supplemental,
petition during the hearing on tn
oral motion Monday.
Judge McCrystal told the attor
neys he would advise on the ora
motion as soon as possible, probs
bly, within a few days. No dat
has been set for the hearing o
Councilman Brindley's petition.

COUNCIL Still up IN AIR" OVER
VETO OF MUNY court JUDGES Ord,

Despite lengthy discussion by all
councilmen with the exception of
David Jeremy during the regular
council meeting Tuesday night, no
one this week can prophesize if
Mayor Carl Becker's veto of the
municipal court judges salary
boost ordinance will be upheld or
rejected at the meeting December
9th.
AS council could take no action
until at least 10 days after the
mayors veto was announced Tues
day night, the peaceful discussion
was ia bled after Councilman
Charles Ruddock made personal
remarks blaming the primary de-
featS of Mayor Becker and Vice
Mayor Harold Nielsen and the cleo
ton of solitictor Adair WILDER on
their stands in the municipal court
issue.
In statement accompanying his
veto message, Mayor Becker listed
his reasons for the veto as: Cd The
$4,000 salary is out-of-line with
those of other city officials, e.
The state law sets the judges
minimum salary as $4,856 and g.
Port Clinton's general fund is no
in any financial condition to NEE
the additioal expense.
To pass over the mayors veto
five of the seven councilmen mus
approve the proposed ordinance.
From the discussion Tuesda,
night, Councilmen Roy Oman anc
Robert Reynolds gave indication
they will go along with the mayor
veto. Oman voted mo" when tn
ordinance first was approved tw,
weeks ago.
When Ruddock made his pei
sonal remarks, council quickl
tabled the discussion before Cour
Gilman Dave Jeremy could expires
his feelings. If he also upholds tn

HEART SURGERY
victim PASSES
AWAY IN TOLEDO

Despite heroic efforts by heart
specialists, nurses, blood donors
and his family, Ray Cover, 26-
year-oid Genoan, passed away
shortly before midnight Tuesday
in Mercy Hospital while under
going another operation. Doctors
said the last operation was TO re-
inforee the aorta graft and that
90 minutes after surgery started,
Cover suffered heart stoppage.
Surgeons worked over two hours
trying TO revive him by massag-
ing his heart.
Persons who have donated blood
in this county through the Ameri-
can Red Gross Bloodmobile's pro-
gram will be pleased to learn that
they have helped 26-year-old Ray
Cover of Genoa in his fight for
life.
In Toledo's Mercy Hospital Sun
day morning, Cover underwent a
nine-hour operation during which
section of his aorta was removed
and was replaced with a four-inch
section taken from a Detroit man
who had died in an accident. Sur
geons said the rare operation was
among the first SO ever done in
the United States.
Cover also underwent two opera
tons last spring when diagnosis
of coarctation of the aorta was con-
firmed. Customary surgery then
was performed without success.
During the past six months, 81
pints of blood from the Ottawa
County blood program was given
to help Mr.. Cover.
AS Covers life hung in balance
during the serious operation, il
was decided to use live blood don
ors Sunday rather than take a
chance on difference in tempera-
ture and oxygen content in whole
blood from the Blood Bank

wa County Red Cross Bank pro-
gram, arranged for II people to
be at Mercy Hospital Sunday to
