Who Has Responsibility for Caravilla Overflow? Health 's plumbing division. He pointed out there no water pollution problem at the Rock River across the highway from Caravilla's drainage field therefore the problem is strictly under his jurisdiction. Jwneg Sargent inspector with the plumbing division, said that although he has investigated the Caravilla problem and found its system inadequate for the home 's 350 elderly residents, it Is not under his agency's jurisdiction either.

Sargent referred questions to Montle and to another official in the plumbing division who was for comment. The split in jurisdiction, he and Montie indicated, has come about with creation a year ago of the Department of Resource Development, formed to combat water pollution in Wisconsin. Adding to the confusion is Fal- fo, who said that Caravilla is under the City of Beloit's health department now. Despite this, when asked who has responsibility for Caravilla. he replied: the Department of Resource Development.

Montie, he said, has helped Caravilla considerably in making recommendations to solve the overflow. Complaints from residents who live near the institution have sparked some of the action, Faico conceded. The system spilled over onto the field last week but the pond of water is almost gone this week, he said. Odor from the overflow is not as bad during winter as it is in summer, he said. Meanwhile, Caravilla is hoping for relief from the city of Beloit, which has promised to sell it a portable waste treatment plant should the annex'ation fail its court test.

The portable pliant, which Goldschmidt called very efficient, is located at Canterbury Woods, a small subdivision near Turtle Creek. It will be replaced within 60 days, Goldschmidt said by the city's new northeast interceptor line which will then serve that area. The city had planned to install the unit at or near Caravilla to end its waste treatment problem. However, William A.

James Apple, left. University of Wisconsin entomologist, points out the undeveloped brace roots of a corn to County Extension Agent Hugh Alberts during an inspection trip through the fields of the Franklin Austin farm in Janesville yesterday. The damaged corn is the work of a flying insect called a Corn Root Worm which is a growing threat to corn producers in Wisconsin and yesterday's visit by Apple was to warn local farmers of the menace. (Gazette photo) grien, former city council president and still a council member, said it will be sold hand to Caravilla should the annexation fall through. Goldschmidt said this may be a problem because the city must by law, seek bids on the unit, meaning Caravilla would have to submit the high bid to get it.

It cost $.12,000 in 1064 he said. FaIco said that Caravilla has cooperated with the state to end the overflow, which is why the nursing home has averted state action. Montie made the same statement, commenting, "They have shown good faith in combatting the problem." The cause of the overflowing, said Sargent, is the poor percolation of waste in the soil of the drainage field. The system depends upon absoi-ption of the wastes by the soil, hut Caravilla is pumping 40,000 gallons of water daily into the septic tank, Whitcomb said, which is more than the system or the soil can absorb. Montie said that the overflow waste is more of a nuisance than a danger to area residents.

However, he said it is a potential threat because aay waste lying atop ground level poses a health problem.

Report Mittness, Holt, Parleying on Contract Obituaries Leslie Stockman MILTON JUNCTION Services were held Monday in Merrill for Leslie E.

Old Police Badge Dug Up in Garden An addition was made today to Police Chief asper Webb's collection of police one from an unlikely source. Mrs. Richard Brieske, 447 Madison gave him a star of the type policemen wore about the turn of the century. He was the son of Richard and i inscribed Janesville Cathryn Grey Soular, a veteran' Mrs. Brieske found the badge Douglas R.

Soutar LAKE GENEVA-Douglas R. Soutar, 77, of Oklahoma formerly of Lake Geneva, died July 12 in Veterans Hospital, Oklahoma City. A po.ssible compromise is in the works to enable Assemblyman Lewis T. Mittness to be part of the school when he is not serving in the state Legislature. According to Supt.

of Schools Fred Holt, he and Mittness have been negotiating terms of a contract which will be presented to the Janesville Board of Education for approval at its Aug. 8 meeting. It is expected that Mittness will assume the role of a "utility" teacher, a post unique in the system and one that would concern itself primarily with the area of curriculum. The assignment was first offered to Mittness in December and refused on the grounds that it would not put him'al his proper place in the salary schedule. Terms of the contract will not be disclosed until the board meets in August, Holt said, but salary plays a major part in the terms of the contract.

Mittness had taken the stand that he was entitled to receive his regular rate of pay $48.08 for each day he was able to the board of education had offered to pay $.10 a day in the utility teaching role, a .50 per cent increase over established substitute teachers' pay. Negotiations between Holt and Mittness followed an opinion by City Attorney Ted Bidwell that Mittness had breached his 1966-67 teaching contract and was not entitled under state statute to receive a 67-68 full-time classroom teaching contract as Mitt- ne.ss had claimed. Official school board policy states that short-term leaves of absence cannot be granted for more than 30 days. Mittness could not guarantee that his duties in the state Legislature would not keep him out of school for more than 30 days, so the utility teaching role was offered as an alternate. Mittness is out of town on vacation and could not be reached for comment.
