The puzzling case of Ken Miller, a (i-2 senior athlete, whose wanderings took him from Wabash to Rochester and back to Wabash since the opening of the fall school team, appears to be ended Zebra Coach Paul Rockwell told this writer that Miller, who wasn't happy at Rochester, hud moved back to Apache land with his mother this week Miller missed two days of school last week, probably planning future action and was suspended from the team.

Rockwell revealed Miller would be eligible to don an Apache uniform upon clearance of the official school transfer papers By coincidence, Rochester and Wabash are booked to clash in a Central Indiana Conference game Friday at. the Zebra gym.
