next dinner will be Thursday, October 10, 2002 at Oscar and Bev Hopkins' home at 6:30 P.M. The cost is $8.00 per person. Reservations may be made by contacting Martha Chiscon. Watch for an Eradicate Polio Raffle to
begin in the next week or two. It is a 50/50 Raffle where half will go to Eradicate Polio and half will go to a drawing in our club. It is hoped that this will be a fun fundraiser! ROTARY logo or souvenir items
purchased to provide a display for the Board of Directors to choose from are available for sale at meetings. First come, first served. Don't miss this opportunity to own a license plate, a paperweight, or a framed 4-Way
Test. There has been some confusion over badge placement in the box. Due to members coming and going over the years, the alphabetic order is only loosely maintained. The box will be re-ordered in due time. You are
reminded that the number of the slot where your badge belongs is to the left of the slot. PROGRAM (September 17, 2002)

Indiana of building better communities and the many ways Ball State University, is working to make that happen. Indiana has led the nation in job loss, dropping from 17th to 33rd. Vissionery
Leadership, World Class Educational Systems, Viberent Economic Activity and Technological Infrastructure are needed to build better communities. Ball State is helping communities (including West
