    Students from Tippecanoe Valley High School reply to the question, "Should the government enforce stricter gun control laws, or should the restrictions be relaxed?"

    Norman Clay, son of Mr. and Mrs. Wallace Clay, of six miles south of Warsaw on the county road, brings in proof that he found a batch of mushrooms under leaves on their farm.
