Mi stariji, sestre i brace,

Annual Solicitation

Mrs. Otto II. Holtkamp was named
this week by the Bluffton Federation
of Women's clubs to head the COM
munity's annual fund raising cam
paign for the American Cancer
Society during the month of April.
Following on the heels of the Polio
campaign in January and the Red
Cross drive in February, the Cancer
drive is aimed at raising somewhere
near the 1854 contributions of last
year. The drive last year was under
the leadership of Mrs. A. B. Murray.
Members of the various women's
clubs in the community will make a
house-to-house solicitation during the
remainder of this month. The visits
will continue through the month as
members of the committee find time
to make the calls.
Mrs. Holtkamp explained this week
that the goal for the 1854 campaign
in Allen county is $15,500.
at should be remembered" she
said, "that fifty per cent of all con-
tributions made through the local
unit remains in the county to support
local projects of education and serv-
ice to the cancer patient. Only by
generous giving viii our goal be
reached" she said.

A municipal sewage disposal plant
is not ordinarily included on the
itinerary of a Cooks Guided Tour of
the city, but Blufftonites need have
no hesitancy about showing off this
towns new plant to visiting friends.
Matter of fact, the plant will be-
come the show place meeting point
of the Northwestern Ohio Sewage
and Waste Treatment Conference on
Tuesday, April 20. Regarded as a
model of efficiency for towns the size
of Bluffton, waste treatment engin-
eers and plant operators from a wide
area will inspect the local plant at
the meeting.
In operation now for nearly four
months, the test period has convinced
Bluffton officials that the sewage
disposal problem is definitely settled
here. James E. Draper, superintend-
ent of the light and water plant
whose duties also cover supervision
of the disposal unit, said that records
of the plant show that it is operating
at better than 80 per cent efficiency,
In recent weeks the big pumps at the
plant have been sending sewage
through the system at the rate of one
and two tenths million gallons every
"a hours.
An observer does not need instru-
ments or training to grasp the nature
of the transformation or the volume
of water passing through the system.
Without going inside building, and
just off the roadway within a distance
of 20 feet, the observer can see the
sewage entering the systems wet
well. He can walk a few feet and
see the treated clear water flow thru
the out-fall sewer on its way to the
Riley. The transformation, is readily
apparent.
Tests of the outflow indicate that
the discharge is satisfactorily aka
line and contains twice as much
oxygen as is necessary to sustain fish
life.
The sprawling disposal plant is in
operation day and night, "a hours a
day, and although its action is COM
pletely automatic it requires constant
vigilance on the part of the operator
Harry Tripplehorn has been appoint
ed to this position and is studying fol
his license under the direction of Bill
Jacobs, chief operator at the Lima
plant. Jacobs is temporarily serving
as technical supervisor at Bluffton

Fire Marshaps Approval Sought For
Town Hall Renovation At Beaverdam

Because village finances will not
permit immediate participation in
both the proposed park-playground
project and the teen age recreation
room plans at the town hall, Beaver
dam council decided last Thursday
evening to temporarily table the park
proposal and investigate further the
possibilities of fixing up recreation
room for the towns teen ayers.
Village Clerk Walter Beck advised
council that it will be necessary for
the state fire marshall's office to ap-
prove plans for renovating the second
floor of the old town hall for use as
a recreation room. Don Myers, dis
trict fire marshal of Van Vert will
be asked to inspect the property and
outline requirements of the renova-
ton.
The Parent Teachers association
and the Beaverdam Lions club have
announced their intention to support
the recreation room proposal. Re-
representatives. of the groups attended
the March 18 council meeting to re-
port their interest in the project.
Councilman pointed out that the
cost of getting the room into condi,
ton will vary with requirements sci
by the fire marshalPs inspection.
The park-playground which would
be maintained jointly by the villag'
council and the school board, will b'
considered for future action. Mayo
Wayne Tripplehorn said that botl
projects cannot be undertaken a
once. If the recreation room plans d.
not materialize, council will be read,
to look into the other proposal NOR
thoroughly.
