Countywide Vote Teaches Democracy Of Our Wayne County Bureau Wayne County teen-agers may be too young to but they are preparing to take over the County Courthouse and all its elective positions. They are going to do it the democratic way. There will be party conventions, primaries and general elections- with every youngster enrolled in a public high school qualified for office.

The first Countywide Student Government Day sponsored by Reservoir Seen Lure To Industry By TED SHERARTS By DAN WARNER Planning Director Walter Re Bobotek continued his battle to bring more recreational area to Portage County's proposed West Branch Reservoir the Tri-County Regional Planning Commission officially moved into 1962 Thursday is using a newand, to some, more convincing -tack. The reservoir, he said, can do much to help lure industry to the greater Akron area if enough recreational facilities are provided. HE SAID industries are recognizing the need to provide for the recreational needs of their employes and consider this when choosing a site. "This development is one of those huge assets which could help do the job in attracting industry," Bobotek said. "But," he said bluntly, "The reservoir will not be an asset unless we get more land for recreation." Bobotek's chief complaint is that the U.

S. Army Corps of Engineers, which is building the reservoir, reportedly plans to acquire only about 260 acres for recreation. The recreation land would be at six separate sites. IN A REPORT prepared by the National Park Service for the Corps, it was recommended that a minimum of 1,500 acres be set aside for parks and another 480 acres around the shoreline be reserved for recreation. re Bobotek said he intends to check whether the Corps has a broad or specific appropriation for building reservoir in a conference Saturday with Rep.

Robert Cook of Ravenna. If the appropriation is a broad one, area residents should try to influence the Corps to provide more recreational area, Bobotek said. If it is a specific one, with all funds allotted to specific purposes, Congress should be asked to provide more money, he said. AS THINGS stand now, total cost of the Reservoir will be $14.5 million, of which the Federal government will pay the major portion. The rest of the funds will come from Trumbull and Mahoning Counties, which will benefit Area Churches On Page 8 through flood control and water supply for industrial use.

Congress already has appropriated $2.6 million, and preliminary work is under way at the reservoir site, east of Ravenna and south of Rt. 5. The Kennedy Administration has asked for a allocation. Tri-County President Paul Belcher reported that "half a dozen" foundations have been asked to contribute funds for a Tri-County study of land surrounding the reservoir. The study would serve as a guide for developing recreational facilities and for setting up building, road and utility standards in the area.

BELCHER said there is a "possibility" one of the groups will provide financial help. Bobotek was authorized to explore the possibility of hav. ing the Corps conduct a study of flood plains in the Tri-County area. If the Corps decides a such a study is important, Bobotek said, it can do detailed engineering, pinpointing flood plain areas. He said such a study would aid in planning zoning, building and, possibly, man-made devices to halt flooding.

BELCHER, senior vice president of the First a National Bank, was elected to his third term as president of the Commission. Also reelected were Streets. boro farmer Roland Weingart, first vice president, and Bobotek, secretary. Ohio Edison Co. vice president Samuel Stites, second vice president last year, was named third vice president.

The new second vice president is Medina Mayor James Brown.
