Gunilla Eriksson and Martin Fejde, both 17, are students from Sweden in the American Intellectual Student Exchange program. Miss Eriksson is liv-ing with the Mr. and Mrs. Louis McNary family. Fejde is living with Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Good at the 4-H Center. David Schrader, Oskaloosa, has just completed a 12-week course of study in air traffic control procedures and prob-lems at the Federal Aviation Administration Academy, Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center, Oklahoma City, Okla. Prior to this training, Schrader passed a stringent entrance examination under civil service requirements to establish eligibility to become an air traffic controller. The Jefferson County Service Organization transportation project announced that the 1983 fiscal year ended Sept. 30. The program served 577 people this past year at a cost of approxi-mately $46 per person. There were 6,312 units of service. Mr. and Mrs. Billy R. Cop-pinger, Winchester, announce the birth of a son, Jacob Rod-dell, Nov. 8, 1983. Maternal grandparents are Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Domann, Winchester.

The building will house Ernest-Spencer Inc., Ernest-Spencer Metals Inc., and PTMW Inc., whose principal owners are Patti Christiansen and Todd Goff, which is a railroad supply company for switch gear hous-ing and other metal parts manu-factured by Ernest-Spencer. The firm now employs 80 people and Spencer said he expects that number to grow to 100 within a couple of years. St. Joseph’s Altar Society met Nov. 8 at the School in Valley Falls. Ann Funk was elected president; Twila Stutz, vice president; Trudy Lohman, secretary; and Diane Babcock, treasurer.

Fundraiser to benefitJCNHS hoops program The basketball program at Jefferson County North High School stands to benefit from a fundraiser that will be taking place at the school next Tues-day. According to an online flier promoting the event, the fund-raiser consists of a “Free Will donation dinner” that is to be held from 5:30 to 7 p.m. A meal made up of pulled pork, baked beans, potatoes, dessert and lemonade or water is planned, and the money received that evening will be used to purchase “The Gun”, a programmable machine that allows players to practice their shooting from various spots on the court. Following dinner, those pres-ent will be able to watch some basketball in the gymnasium from 7 to 8. The schedule calls for the girls basketball team to scrimmage first and for the boys team to do so later. There will be activities between the two scrimmages, according to the flier.

Super describesfootball forum as‘very productive’ In response to an inquiry, Oskaloosa USD 341 Superin-tendent Jon Pfau told the paper last Thursday in an email that the community forum held Nov. 5 to discuss the current status of the football program at Os-kaloosa High School was “very productive” and that “many positive ideas” were shared at that time. Pfau reported that not count-ing himself, the football coaches and Athletic Director Rob Mill-er, about 45 people attended the meeting, which took place in the library at the school complex. He said he was “very encour-aged” by and appreciative of both the turnout for the event and “the problem solving nature of the meeting.” Pfau went on to point out that the timing of the meeting, early November, demonstrates that there is “a strong willing-ness” on the part of the district to make sure that it continues to have “a viable and competitive” football program for students in grades 7-12. Finally, based on what he came away from the meeting with, the superintendent had this prediction to make: “I think that USD 341 will see a variety of positive changes moving forward in not just football, but all of our extracurricular activi-ties,” he remarked.

Bear Bashis Friday Bear Bash, which is essen-tially a preview of Oskaloosa High School’s winter sports programs, will bring students, parents and others to the school complex on Friday. The event will be getting underway at 6 p.m. with a chili dinner. Starting at 7, the vari-ous teams are to be introduced. And beginning at 7:30, there will be basketball to watch, as both the varsity boys team and the varsity girls team will be taking on teams comprised of OHS alumni.
