"fcxeitement ran high on Thursday
at the George Winn farm when
a U, S. Army Helicopter landed in
his oats field directly behind the barn.
While visiting here, orders came
through for his daughter, Mrs. Perry
Mecklenburg, to make immediate entrance into the Battle Creek hospital
for surgery. Her husband, Sgt. Mecklenburg, called her from Mt. Clemens
and said he and 1st. Lt. Schwartz
would leave Selfridge Field about noon
and pick her up and take her to Battle
Creek, HOspital.
Mrs. Mecklenburg had a call about
12:30 p. m. from her aunt, Mrs. Olive
Spicer, who lives on the Beaverton
road, that they had just gone over
her house. Mrs. Mecklenburg notified
near neighbors who left immediately
for the Winn Farm. They arrived jut
in time to see the helicopter land.
It was very easy to understand
why they are-used so extensively in
rescue work. The field,, in which they
landed is,very hilly and it would be
impossible for a plane to land or take
off there, The helicopter came straight
down, and on taking off. went right
straight up. On taking off, the propeller made a terrific wind which one
could hardly face, but it disappeared
as soon as the helicopter rose. They
refueled while here.
After necessary treatment and observation were' completed, Cpl. and
Mrs. Wayne Rice, of Fort Custer,
brought Sgt. and Mrs. Perry Mecklenburg back to get their daughter, Patty
Ann, seven months old to stay with
friends near the hospital in Battle
Creek. Mrs. Mecklenburg re-entered
the hospital on Monday, May 16, and
will be glad to hear from her friends
at 143 Cliff Street, Battle Creek,
Michigan, c-o Maxine Kellay.

The latter called on Kenneth
Barnes, of Tawas City,- past president
of the Clare Chamber of Commerce,
who .remarked "that Clare had fine
Kiwapis and Rotary Clubs, Knights of
Columbus Masonic Lodges, and other
organizations, all working for the
benefit of the city, but that there was ,
a need of the Chamber of Commerct
cooperating with and working should
er to shoulder with these groups a:
the chain of civic organizations was.
only as strong as its weakest link.
He said that we had an outstanding commodity here at the crossroads
of Michigan in our lakes, streams and
game area and that if we do not sell
the commodity it will "remain on the
shelf" and not be worth' a cent, because other towns think they are just
as good as Clare and are out selling.
Mr. Barnes continued" that when
they opened up their restaurant in
Clare twenty odd years ago there was
only four months tourist season, but
now it continues the year around, with
winter sports filling the former gap-
He mentioned that three banquets*,
were being served at the Hotel Doherty at one time Tuesday evening and?
that we were fortunate in having a«
hotel that could do this.
He said that Clare has been a stop->-
pirig spot to eat for a long long while,-
and that we have wonderful stores;
that we don't have to apologize—all
we have-to do is tp get out1* and sell
Clare.
