Carrolls," the .1 current presentation of the In- diana Summer Theater uuim at Indiana State Teachers College, Indiana, Pa. This week we can tell you about the "Purpje People Eaters" game. One of our readers saw our item in Saturday's column about this game being featured at a recent party Seneca. We stated at the time that we were terribly curious to know how the game is played. Monday morning bright and early a Seneca resident phoned us about it.

It's like the game of "cootie," she said. If you don't know the cootie game, (as some of us did not), you play with one dice and whatever number is rolled, accounts for part of the complete picture, such as No. 1 for a leg, etc. Whoever completed his Purple People Eater picture first, as permitted to wear a Purple Peoole Eater hat (secured from the five and ten) for the following game. Jeanne Minich, of Sen-pea, who gave the party and is mad about this hit song, thought up the idea and made the small drawings for the party.

The record was played as the guests enjoyed the game, and as the winner completed his picture she shouted "Purple People Eater" Jeanne's imaginative drawing included a circled head, ice cream cone shape body, two wings, two bowed legs, two pigeon-toed feet with two toes on each side of foot, a big eye in the center of face and a horn on top the head. Her mother was sorry she hadn't carried out the party color scheme in. purple. They could have had raspberry ice cream, she said. No meetings are scheduled this month by the teachers and officers of the First Presbyterian Church school.

Saturday was a miserable day for all those picnics scheduled in this area. The PRR Pennsy Family Club had a poor turnout for its third annual picnic which was held this year at Gilmore's Air Park in Seneca. The Venango County Historical Society, however, was more than lucky Sunday and had i perfect day for the planned tour of Pithole. The new Pennzoil station in the West End had its share of headaches since opening here last fall. First a car (accidentally started by a youngster) ran into the building; then there was an explosion which blew out the rear cf the building some months ago, and last Saturday there was robbery.

Management of the station has also changed since its opening as well as trading stamps. It's too bad that those salmon-shade roses in the triangle at Titusville bridge coming in on Smock and the ones out-of Sage Run Road have to die. They are the most unusual shade. Two VNI employes, Jeannle Zimmermann and Shirley Plyler. observed their birthdays yesterday and our staff enjoyed the birthday cake made by Polly Malvaso, another staff member here.

Shirley just returned to work Tuesday from her vacation, part of which was spent in Gary. where she drove with hei family to visit her sister. Als' accompanying her on the i I was Connie Russell. Art Watson, another VNI employe, also returned to work thir week, after vacationing in Norman, where he visited hir daughter, Mary Estelle and her husband and family. Yesterday was St.

Swithin's Day and you know what that means. When it rains on that day we are supposed to have 40 days and 40 nights of rain. It sure rained yesterday. Residents of Rouse-liiip and other sections of -the county are particauorly positive about it. Dora Cook, of Plumer.
