STEVENS POINT (Wis.) DAILY JOURNAL May 20, 1968 Poge 2 water which we don't want," TRAFFIC Plovers Future Seen As Wild Three Injured In Weekend Accidents River In An Urban Setting by Irving Koi-th, WSU natural County and city authorities reported three persons sustained injuries in two area traffic mishaps over the weekend. Portage County sheriff's deputies said one of the acci- occurred at 7 p.m. Saturday near the south city limits on Church Street. A car driven by Mrs. Lola A.

Mills, 51, 1800 Minnesota going south on Church, slowed for traffic and was strjuck in the rear by an auto driven by Ranger M. Hill, Route 1, Stevens Point. Mrs. Mills and Mildred Repin- Yambert. Korth saji persons who donate the property will eventually pro fit by the gift because their land adjoining the future "park" will be prime house building location.

A meeting is bein planned so committee members and the property owners can discuss land transfers. Manske commended the Por tage County Park Commission and local zoning agencies for their work in forming a conservancy district. "Our educators in town should help promote this project, not only in planning. These people have many skills," Manske added. He explained that WSU has made it possible to undertake such preservation duties because some of the faculty members have offered their services.

"It was a g-eat investment by the people of Stevens Point in 1894 when they established this school," Manske added. Yambert said that enough lo cal interest has been generated so it is doubtful any future federal grants will be needed to continue the project. "It won't be too costly, anyway," he advised. Korth said one way community favor was solicited was on a canoe trip between Jordan and Iverson. Local civic lead ers experienced the recreation al opportunities located "so close to town." Only a few buildings are visible from the river, and the committee hopes this type of atmosphere will remain At the north end is an old hydro electric plant which Dr.

Yambert expects will become a museum under Portage County i i ri i 1- Historical aocieiy sponsoisiiip.

Gen. Bronson La Follette told 7th District Dem ocrats at their convention here Sunday. Wisconsin led the way meeting the challenges of the 1930s, said La Follette, who is a Democratic candidate for governor.

If the Democrats win this year, he said, "We will be able to face up to the challen ges of 1968 and beyond." State Sen. William Hansen, Town of Plover, said Democrats and Republicans "are probably equally intelligent about the problems of the world but a real Democrat is con cerned about doing somethin; about the problem." Hansen said he had voted for La Follette's grandfather, father and uncle, "and I hope to continue to vote for a La Follette, not because of his name but for his caring about the concerns of the people." Mrs. Helen Sigmund, Portage County Democratic chairman, reported there are "a number of Democrats" interested in running for congressman in the 7th District against Rep. Melvin R. Laird, R-Marshfield.

Election of sub-district chairman was held. In the sub-district which includes Portage County, Mrs. Rae Riley of Stevens Point defeated Ernest Kluck of Whiting and will serve a two-year term. Leo Wergin of Stevens Point, the incumbent, was not a candidate. First Samples Fail To Pin Down Outbreak Cause Tlie first batch of food sam ples sent to the state laboratory of hygiene in Madison failed to turn up the source of a food poisoning outbreak at Wisconsin State An estimated 125 students became ill Wednesday night, and seven co-eds were hospitalized.

All have since been released. Samples were taken of food at the Allen Center, where the ill students ate. A report from Madison, received Saturday, said none of the samples was contaminated. City Sanatiarian Robert Schmitz said today he was awaiting a report on other samples taken to Madison later. But it is possible, he said, that tlie illness may have resulted from food eaten Tuesday.

No samples were available of food served that day. More than 100 students who became ill were surveyed in an effort to pin down tlie source of the outbreak through tlie process of elimination. With tlie help of dormitory di rectors and students, he said, the victims were questioned about what they ate to see if the illness could be traced to a single food. However, reported Schmitz, no pattern was appar ent. Sicily, with almost 10,000 square miles is tlie largest island in the Mediterranean.

Stevens Point in the 21st cen- tury may be one of few cities with a wild river running through its core. "It will be something like Cen tral Park in New York," says Dr. Paul Yambert, a conserva tionist and dean of applied arts and sciences at Wisconsin State University here. He heads a committee seeking to keep the Plover River basin in its natural, unpolluted condition. A goal is to protect the river while residential sectors emerge back from its banks.

The Plover meanders about 12 miles between Jordan and Iver-son Parks, and its flood plain varies upward from several hundred yards in width. This is the area being preserved. A report on this project was one of several given during the weekend at an area development seminar at WSU. About 25 persons from throughout the state, who are involved in federal government sponsored community projects, attended. Dr.

Yambert was assisted in explaining the Plover proposals resources professor, and Had Manske, of the Portage County Park Three years ago, a $3,000 Title I Education Act grant was received to create a development project for which the city and area would eventually take full responsibility. Aerial maps of the flood plain were made and several gather ings involving community par ticipation were held to stimulate interest. Since then, assurance has been received that most land along the flood plain will re main in its wild setting. Some of it is owned by the Izaak Walton League, Boy Scouts of America, Stevens Point Water Department and Stevens Point Municipal Airport. Dr.

Yambert committee hopes to persuade private own ers to donate their property. The land near the banks isn't too valuable, according to Dr aVtMNfttA pittiBMato fx) Mtr ominfflai mmiam EN FLORAL Manske said. This is expected to hold down pollution problems.
