1970 WAUSAU DAILY RECORD-HERALD MERRILL DAILY HERALD TUESDAY. JULY 14, LaRocque candidate for re-election Magazine sales brin complaints Candidate for coroner Jack Olson, 1101 Knauf Rothschild, today announced his candidacy for Marathon County coroner. Olson, 49, is a Republican. He has been employed for the past 20 years as a laboratory, z-ray and surgical technician for Dr. H.

W. Christensen, a Wausau physician. A native of Wausau, he graduated from Wausau East School in 1940 and from Wausau Hospital North's x-ray school in 1949. He served in the U. S.

Air Force from 1940 to 1949. 7 LiZJ solicitations in the county outside of Wausau. Some salesmen begin making calls before the waiting period is up. This solicitation without a permit has occurred in all sections of the county, from downtown Wausau to the rural areas. The best policy is to read the contract carefully before signing it, Mrs.

Streck said. She urged householders not to rely upon a verbal commitment. People with questions should contact the chamber office. Daniel LaRocque, Marathon County district attorney, today filed nomination papers for re election on the Democratic ticket. LaRocque is seeking his fourth term as county district attorney.

He became the county's first fulltime assistant district attorney in 1964 and was elected to his present post the following year. Legal safeguards preovided to criminal suspects by the courts in recent years have made the job of district attorney a real challenge, LaRocque said. "There have probably been more appeals to the State Supreme Court from criminal convictions since I've become district attorney than in all the previous years," he said. None of the appeals has resulted in reversal. LaRocque, 34, is a member of the Wisconsin District Attorney's Association, the Knights of Columbus, Little League organization and the Parent Teachers Association.

After graduation from Marquette Law School in 1962, he practiced law in Wausau until his appointment as I iv SILLY CLOWN IMDICILJLOTS PKICE Summer is both magazine subscription time and magazine subscription complaint time. The complaints are starting to come in to the office of the Wausau Area Chamber of Commerce, reports Mrs. Lucille Streck, of the chamber staff. Most of the problems result from not reading the fine print on the subscription contract. Some people believe they have paid the full price of a subscription and suddenly find that they are receiving additional bills in the mail.

Some are discovering that they signed to receive the magazines over a longer period than they had believed. All transient magazine salesmen in this area must have a permit, Mrs. Strck points out. She urged householders to request salesmen to produce a permit before dealing with them. There is a waiting period before permits are granted by the city police in Wausau or by the sheriff's department for Accident correction A two-car collision at the intersection of County Highway and State Highway 52 sent seven members of the Wilbur Baumann Jr.

family, Wausau Route 2, to Wausau Hospital South for treatment. Baumann, his wife Marilyn, and five of the couple's six children were in the car when the accident occurred. Baumann and the children were treated and released Sunday. Mrs. Baumann was hospitalized overnight and released Monday.

Kenneth E. Hopp, 714 S. 3rd Wausau, also involved in the accident, remains a patient at South with a fractured right ankle and lacerations and abrasions. Baumann was driving southwest on Highway 52 when a truck driven by Hopp, traveling north, attempted to turn straight on to Highway J. The vehicles collided.

The death youth is Ronald Werther, son of Mrs. Alois Kawelski, Town of Eau Pleine. He was riding a bike on Highway 10 about 11:40 p.m. Sunday. The bike was struck from behind.

Parts of the youth's body were found strewn over the highway. The body was found by a passing motorist, Irvin Arn-quist, Minneapolis, who at first thought it was a dead deer. Parts of the auto were found on the road. Werther was born -Nov. 2, 1952, in Wausau.

Special $4495 Set-Up Price Ph. 842-4430 mergency Exit A Wausau man is believed to be the driver of a car that struck and killed a 17 year old boy on State Highway 10 near Junction City Sunday evening. The driver did not stop after the accident. James Duda, a resident of the Huckbody Trailer Court, Schofield, turned himself in to the Wausau Police Department about noon Monday. Duda said he was traveling on Highway 10 where the youth was killed at the time of the accident.

He said his car struck what he thought was a deer. He did not stop to investigate. "He notified police when he heard reports on the radio that Sidewalk Principal objector to the project was Carl Sternberg, resident, who cited the possibility of a "ghetto" with a large housing project of this type. "We had an $18,000 surplus in Kronenwetter last year," he said, "and that's good enough for me. I don't want a lot of 'wealth' in the township." The latter statement was in relation to a predicted $200,000 per year income for the community through tax returns.

A total of $3,546,000 in disposable income would be forthcoming, it was said. Chairman Anton Polka of Kronenwetter said he receives inquiries every day concerning housing. Robert Davis, area regional planner, spoke briefly in relation to Central Wisconsin Airport plans for its industrial sites. Pawlan assured Al King, Kronenwetter assessor, that residents in the proposed mobile home community would be carefully screened and their residences checked. Polka said at the meeting's end that the Planning Commission would study the zoning change and consideration of the project itself would take place in the near future.

Town of Kronenwetter's annual meeting takes place at 8 p.m. July 27. Decision on the mobile home park would probably take place sooner, however. Lions golf winner Mark Kordus, a member of the Wausau Lions Club, was the low scorer when members and guests of the club met cr golf Monday at the American Legion clubhouse. A dinner meeting followed.

By BEN LUEDTKE Staff reporter About 30 residents of Kroenenwetter heard details Monday evening on the proposed 618-unit mobile home community being planned there. The meeting was scheduled to consider a 10-acre landuse change in relation to the mobile homes. Most of the evening's discussion, however, centered upon the growing prominence of this type of housing. A late model mobile home was parked outside the Town Hall so those interested could see the modern dwelling first-hand. Atty.

Bruce Griffin, Wausau, introduced Harold Pawlan of Pawlan Associates Architects, Chicago, partner in the $1 million Kronenwetter venture. Pawlan said 241 units would be placed in the proposed community to begin with on lots containing from 5,400 to 6,000 square feet. Pawlan said natural beauty of the 177 acres would be preserved as far as practical with a recreation area plan along the flood plain area along Bull Junior Creek). General area of the proposed community is bounded on three sides by County Trunk and Wood and East Roads. The business area would include an administration headquarters for the area with possibly mobile home sales, coin laundry and service materials for mobile homes, Pawlan added.

Leonard Roulier Milwaukee, representative of Wisconsin Mobile Home Association, showed a movie on mobile home life and said sales on this type of housing had gone to $52,000,000 last year. He added that due to antiquated housing laws there was a shortage of sites, however. SMARTEST WAY out of a financial bind tap your passbook savings.
