Amer Trust economist Dan Pavsek predicts the prime rate averaging about 10.25 percent in the first quarter and easing to around 9.75 percent temporarily. Home, business, auto and personal loans may fall, with a potential mild recession later in 1986. He sees modest inflation and gradual growth, plus demand for machine tools and manufactured goods.

Cemetery records altered in plot double sale scandal
Eaton Township officials charged Trustee Donald Wracker and former road superintendent Harry Day after records and a cemetery map at Butternut Ridge Cemetery appeared altered to hide a double sale.

Day and others say the map and sale documents were changed or missing, making it hard to prove Day’s map entry.
