Liberty St., Arcade was taken to Chaffee Memorial Hospital in Springville by the Dclevan Volunteer Ambulance Service and after emergency treatment was transferred to Buffalo General Hospital, suffering from fractures and internal injuries. Deputy Sheriff Gary McAlpinc reported that Mrs. Lavcry was eastbound on Route 39 when her car veered off a curve to the left of the highway, then right across the road and jumped a curb on the opposite side, went over the lawn of Mrs. Laura Bennett at 3038 Main St. and crashed through the wall of the Bennett garage, striking a car owned by Mrs. Bennett and shoving it into a car owned by Mrs. Thclma Hunt of 3013 Main S., being stored there.

Prizes will be given Vandals On Saturday Night Rampage Sometime Saturday night, October 25, the Arcade and Attica Railroad's Grover Cleveland historic honeymoon car was damaged by ' vandals. Windows were broken and this destruction, v aside from the desecration of a sentimental symbol of earlier times, will amount to a tidy sum to repair It seemed almost ironic that the vandals would choose the time they did in view of the fact that Sunday would be the last day of the season for trips and tourist visitation to this most interesting exhibit. Edward Lewis, General Manager, of the Arcade &. Attica R.R. reported that over 28,000 people and possibly 4000 or 5000 more counting children under four years of age, had come to Arcade to ride the olden times train. This number included tourists from distant lands - Canada, England, Hawaii, California and many other states of the union. He reported that, while the volume of visitors was below last year, which is attributed to the rainy spring and early summer, the railroad freight business was at a new high level.

Some of these rights have been extended by the mod generation to demonstrate, (mob scenes at times) to destroy property and to resort to other mea'ns of violence either as an attention getting 'device or as a misguided effort to change things - the recent so called Moratorium Day, participated in by many sincere believers that the war in Vietnam is wrong for the U.S.A., developed outbreaks of violence and certainly gave great comfort to the enemy, be it Hanoi, China, Russia or just the enemy within. Going along with the rights guaranteed in the Constitution and defined in our state constitution is the right to vote with every right there is a corresponding obligation. The citizen of 21 years and over lias an obligation to exercise his right of franchise and along with others to influence the society in which we live. It is stated by knowledgeable observers and commentators tliat much of the noise representing atticism of our government, be it National, State or local, comes from organized minorities. Judging from some of its material emanating from our college campuses and even self-styled underground papers in our high schools, the ferment seems to come from disgruntled individuals who liave 'discovered the power of the press and other media as a means of getting attention. Putting first things first, would suggest that dissatisfaction in a democratic society would manifest itself tlvrough tlie ballot box. • The electorate should and usually docs get what it deserves. Tlie voters are expected to register their feelings Election Day and liaving done so, tliey have every right to fee.l that as in a game of' sports tlie running of our government tlie best man or woman has won. In a democratic society, this is our only way of ( supporting authority tint we look to as a stabilizing influence in our country. 1 Arcade Woman Wounded Accidentally By Gunshot Skunk Scentimental About Last Trip Sometime Saturday night October 25, tlie Arcade and Attica railroad's office and headquarters was invaded by a skunk. It is presumed that the skunk may have been injured and took refuge in this location, not being aware, of course, that Sunday, October 26 would be the last trip for the railroad this season. He managed to hide after distributing a goodly amount of well known offensive secretion and to assert himself again as the train was about to leave on its last trip. There is speculation that he may have made the trip, since when the office opened Monday, he \reasserted himself and i t was necessary to enlist the- services of Bill Luskin of Arcade to bring an end his last trip. Collins Man Accused Of Shooting Horses Dean Warner of Collins, age 19, was arrested by Erie County Sheriffs Gemold and Mumm on the charge that he shot three horses August 15 on the farm of Frank Domster in Sardinia. One of the horses died. Warner was arraigned before Judge Wood and remanded t o the Erie County Jail for trial at a future date.

Mrs. Russell Ostrum of 166 Park SL accidentally shot herself Tuesday with a small caliber derringer while displaying tlie gun t o neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. Marvin Fox, at their home. She was attended^bybr. Gerald J. Diesfeld and taken to the Wyoming County Community Hospital in Warsaw by the Arcade ambulance at approximately 3:45 p.m. N.Y.T. Considering Slight Increase In Arcade Calling Area New York Telephone has announced plans to survey 16 exchanges in the Allegany region t o determine if the company's customers want expanded calling areas. Involved are the exchanges of Olean, Wellsville, Salamanca, Angelica, Belfast, Belmont, Bolivar, Cuba, EUicottvule, Franklinvflle, Fri endship, Hinsdale, Limestone,., Arcade, Machias and Rushford. In response to customer requests, the company proposes to eliminate toll charges on about 1.4 million calls a year in this region, according t o local manager Thomas B. Greene. Each of these calls now costs up t o 25 cents plus any overtime charges. If the plan is approved by a substantial majority of telephone customers and accepted by the Public Service Commission, monthly charges for local service would be increased to reflect the added value and cost of providing the service,-Mr. Greene said. For residence customers in Arcade, the increase would be 15 cents. For business customers the increases would range from 15 cents for a multi-party line to 55 cents for a switchboard trunk line. The Arcade local calling area, which now includes Bliss, Chaffee, Java an d Machias, would be expanded to include Franklinville and Rushford. The plan would be introduced late (Continued on page eighteen) Holland Kiwanis Entertain Newcomers The Kiwanis Club of Holland entertained approximately 30 newcomers to the community at a banquet licld in the American Legion hall Wednesday evening, October 22.
