From the records MAGRUDER HOSPITAL David Ponke, Oak Harbor. Explain new programs to two juveniles New Juvenile court programs Plans designed to prevent, rehabilitate By CLAUDINE KRISS News-Herald staff writer With the approval and backing of Probate and Juvenile Judge Merrill Rudes, Ottawa County probation officers Marlene Young and Jim Stiger have begun two new programs for preventing delinquency and rehabilitating delinquent and pre-delinquent juveniles. Mrs. Young has started a Volunteer Probation Officer program for working with juveniles who have been referred to juvenile court for various reasons. Stiger's program is aimed more at juveniles who are not in trouble, but could easily become involved in trouble.

Mrs. Young explained the VPO program was one in which volunteers worked with juveniles on a one-to-one basis. "These are juveniles who have been referred to court because they lack supervision at home or have emotional problems and need attention they don't receive at home," she stated. The VPOs are professional persons in the community who are willing to spend at least one hour each week with their assigned juvenile. VPOs may spend the hour each week with the juveniles in a variety of ways, according to Mrs.

Young. It could be going out for a soft drink, a movie, or just visiting. Once each month, all the VPOs and their assigned juveniles get together for a group activity. This month, the group will go ice skating at Bowling Green. Mrs.

Young is seeking community support for the group activities. She would like for small organizations, businesses or groups to sponsor Courthouse notes Injunction to padlock Matthews In cause The American Bank, Port Clinton, versus The Matthews Port Clinton, et al, Judge Donald Wargowsky has temporarily enjoined all persons from removing anything from premises of The Matthews Co. and ordered buildings be locked pending final hearing on motion April 3. A-C Cut Rate Supply, Port Clinton, has been granted right to intervene as a defendant and third party plaintiff. Court finds that J.

David Molson, Montreal, Canada, is no longer continuing operations under private contract within the building and on the premises of The Matthews Co. and that he has removed the boat known as the "Nahani" from the premises and that so much of the motion as deals with these matters now has become moot. 'In cause Loretta Eberle, Port Clinton, versus Frederick J. Eberle, Gibsonburg, original court order has been amended and defendant now -is ordered to make all child support payments, plus poundage, through the Ottawa County Clerk of Courts. Juvenile Judge Merrill B.

Rudes will be in Columbus April 8-12 to attend the dispositional workshop of the Ohio Juvenile Court Judges Association. On parties' motions, cause of Malcolm Johnson, Oak Harbor, versus Leona K. Johnson, Oak Harbor, has been dismissed. Motion for receiver has been filed by plaintiff in cause Mack Industries Valley City, Ohio, versus Fort Firelands Recreation Lakeside, et al. Hearing on motion is scheduled for today by Judge Paul Work in Erie County Common Pleas Court.

Attorney Paul Moon has filed complaint for JUDGE RUDES, MARLENE YOUNG AND JIM STIGER the monthly activities. She is hoping costs for the outings might be kept to a minimum and added the group is open to suggestions for group activities. "It would really depend on what an organization might wish to sponsor," she explained. Some of the ideas she has come up with include visiting Hayes Memorial, going horseback riding, attending plays or concerts or going on picnics. She noted the group would not exceed 12 to 15 juveniles and their VPOs.

Eight VPOs are already involved in the project, according to Mrs. Young, and she hopes to soon have 12. At present, three are women and five are men. They range in age from 21 years old up. Among the things the VPOs will be doing is helping link the family of the juvenile together, work with the family, check on the juvenile's progress in school, help with problems concerning family or friends and help bring out the positive things in the juveniles.

Stiger's program is geared more toward giving juveniles an opportunity to experience things they would not ordinarily experience. This is to be provided in monthly activities which he also hopes to find organizations to sponsor. According to Stiger, and Judge Rudes the program is aimed at children who might become delinquents if not given other opportunities. "This is a way of giving kids a chance to observe different things which they wouldn't get at home," Rudes explained. "We try to stress the fact these kids belong to the whole community.

They will be the adults of the community in a few years. Money spent on the now will be paid back later with better citizens," he added. Stiger is not only looking for organizations which will sponsor activities by providing funds, but hopes the members of the organizations will join in on the activities. These activities are also being left largely to the sponsoring organizations, but some of the suggestions would include visiting the zoo, attending ball games, hockey matches and other sporting events, taking the boys fishing and helping the girls learn to cook, hikes and cookouts. "We hope the sponsoring organizations would provide transportation and adult chaperones or supervisors," Stiger noted.

He and Judge Rudes said they felt it might be a good opportunity for youth organizations who wished to help with a community project. "This program is geared more toward prevention than after care," Stiger explained. "Many of these kids just need someone to show a little interest in them. They need to have an opportunity to associate with adults and have a better relationship with adults," he added. In addition to seeking organizations to sponsor activities, Stiger is hoping schools, churches, individuals and other organizations will also recommend juveniles who might benefit from such a program.

Any group or organization which would like to sponsor one of these activities or recommend someone for Stiger's program may contact Stiger or Mrs. Young at the county courthouse or call 732-3005 or 734-4588.

Plaintiff seeks judgment of $525.13, interest and costs, and asks that boat be seized and held by the court. Two complaints involving a traffic accident July 4, 1967, when auto of Phillip S. Hart, Gibsonburg, struck the Washington Township Road 74 bridge, are reported settled. Cause of Walter and Ruth Ann Elmer, Gibsonburg, versus Sandusky County Board of Commissioners and Washington Township trustees, Fremont, was reported settled and jury trial set for yesterday was cancelled. Mrs.

Elmer was a passenger in the Hart car and they sought damages of $60,000. Also reported settled is cause Board of County Commissioners of Sandusky County versus Phillip S. Hart, Gibsonburg, which had been transferred here on change of venue from that Award museum contract Work should begin next week to prepare the basement of Port Clinton's City Hall to house the museum which has to be moved to make room for municipal court offices. Safety-Service Director Max McLaury said Focht Brothers, has been awarded the contract for the work at a cost of $44,294. Focht Brothers was one of six bidders with the high bid submitted at $79,681.

McLaury said the remodeling of the City Hall entrance has been dropped at this time because of cost. McLaury explained the total cost of the remodeling including the entrance work exceeded $58,000 and the city had only set aside $45,000 for the entire project. He said the entrance might be remodeled in the future. McLaury said the contractor estimated 120 days to complete the remodeling including the now defunct entrance work, so the figure should be less. McLaury, in response.

to a question by Ward Four Councilman Roland Kokinda, said he hasn't heard about any plan to move the museum to a new site. Mayor John Fritz, however, said a group of local citizens is planning to approach the Ida Rupp Public Library Board and the Port Clinton Fire Department to see if these two organizations would relinquish their joint ownership of the land north of the Northern Ohio Telephone Company building on Jefferson Street for the building of a historical museum. Fritz said there might be federal funding for such a project. "It may be a good bicentennial project for the whole community to get behind," Fritz said. Safety-Service Director McLaury also reported workers will start on the Wonnell Ditch Project just off Perry Street as soon as the weather breaks.

Bids for the storm sewer project for the Alice Street area will hopefully be opened by mid-May, McLaury said. Plans for the work are in his office and preliminary work to purchase land and acquire easements is underway.
