Boy Scout Street light proposal on camporee Bath agenda May 15-17 Officials in Bath Monday will act on a proposal to Install street lights In two township areas. Originally Bath, Park Lake and Chandler Estates were considered. Many families In Chandler Estates, however, have Indicated they were not in favor of the street light proposal because of the large number of yard lights In the development. About 40 persons attended a special meeting last week for open discussion of the proposal and most indicated favor with it. Duane Smith, supervisors, said annual cost of the project would be $2,262 for Bath and $2,700 for Park Lake, The SU Johns city commission Monday night voted to indicate an air of cooperation with the Natural Resources Commission even though doubts about pollution and financing continues to persist. The subject was part of Monday night's agenda because city officials have been advised they must be represented at a hearing in Lansing Friday morning May 15. The hearing is slated as one action in a se; les which ultimately could estab'-lsh that, to some degree, the city :s guilty of pollution as charged. Commissioners' earlier ha"d designated Weatherwa x and City Attorney Paul Maples as official representatives, Monday's action came following an extended period of time and one previous hearingwiththe NRC during which the city denied charges of contributing to the pollution of Hayworth Creek and Lake Michigan. During that hearing, held In January, ,the city doubted t h a t serious pollution levels were being attained by effluent from the pollution control plant and, In addition, indicated that present fiscal positions left little chance of raising sufficient funds to meet NRC's construction demands. At that time City Manager Harvey Weatherwax estimated that further pollution control structures proposed by NRC could range between$50,000and$100,000. On both these matters the commission continued to remain firm, but after lengthy discussion voted to Indicate their willingness to cooperate with the r e sources group. The vote came after City Attorney Paul Maples had pointed out that ultimately, through legal^ procedures, the city would be forced to meet additlonal.pollution control measures. Early in the discussion Commissioner Jean Rand tossed out a motion proposing the commission give Maples and Weatherwax authority to agree to the NRC's demands, but ^her early attempt died for lack of support. After extended consideration, however, she once again voiced the motion, buffered by direction that Maples and Weatherwax seek a revised time schedule The Boy Scout's Chippewa District will hold Its annual Spring Camporee at Camp Mapleton, May 15, 16 and 17. More than 300 boys from 16 scout troops In rural Clinton County and Portland will participate^ this year and compete in several programs.

St. Johns considers kindergarten-only school for 1970-71 School officials In St. Johns are considering a plan which calls for all kindergarten children in the district to attend one school set aside for their age group. The Idea is based on an Innovative program at the Olive Center School in the southern area' of the district. At the Olive Center School, which Is for kindergarteners only, three teachers are involved in various subjects and the children rotate among them and receive more individual attention. Roger Feeman, principal of Riley, East Olive and Olive Center schools told the St,;Johns Board of Education last week that some shifting of pupils in the elementary grades will be ' necessary next year. He also commented that he would like to see the East Ward School, an older elementary school in St. Johns, become a kindergarten-only school pat- terned after the Olive Center School. Raymond Pa*T, president, indicated interest in the possibility and asked Feeman to inform the board what costs would be involved^ . Feeman said costs woulu Involve replacing toilet facilities and Installation of carpeting which is considered an important aspect of the program since children of that age spent much time sitting on the floor. He said he could have cost figures by next month when the board will either approve the plan for next^year or go back to an earlier plan Involving the shuffling of pupils in grades kin(Story continued on Page 14-A) LAW DECLARES owner's r e sponsibility for plant damage done by stray dogs in cemeteries, E.

William S. Ballenger last week spoke to the Sleepy Hollow Conservation Club In Greenbush Township on hunting, firearm, and snowmobile legislation and outlined the so-called "SpencerRyan" plan for funding K-12 education In Michigan to the Grand Ledge Rotary Club. Ballenger revealed* to Sleepy Hollow Club members the results of a preliminary tabulation of some 1,850 responses to his legislative poll on the question: "Should the granting of licenses to kill antlerless deer during the regular'hunting season be drastically reduced or eliminated?1* "My questionnaire indicated that citizens in the 87th House District—as well as those out- side my dlstrictinGratiot.Montcalm, and Eaton Counties—favor some sort of moratorium on antlerless deer hunting in Michigan," said Ballenger. "Specifically, 1044 answered «Yes" to the question, 392 answered "No," and 393 were "Undecided." Ballenger added that, based on the results of his questionnaire, a strong majority of Clinton County residents also favor the licensing of snowmobile operators; the opening of public facilities such as parks to snowmobiling in hopes of easingabuse of private property; and the implementation of an operating code restricting use of snowmobiles, especially during hunting seasons.

That's why so many people look for a safe investment. Yet one that pays. U.S. Savings Bonds are like that. Now Bonds pay 5 % interest when held to maturity of 5 years, 10 months (4% for the first year; thereafter 5.20% to maturity). So Savings Bonds build your investment quicker than ever before. And since Bonds are issued by the Government, they're about as safe a way to make your nest egg grow as you'll find.

Clinton included Billboards target of state-wide crack down on Visual pollution' By TIM YOUNKMAN News Staff Writer Billboards along U. S. Highways 21 and 27 in Clinton County and their owners are being investigated In a major state -wide crackdown on "visual pollution," the state Highway Commission reported Wednesday. Mike Jones, spokesman for the Highway Commission, s a i d a survey was conducted along Clinton County's primary highways, but the main attention i s being placed on the Interstate highway violations. "The program will be expanded as we go along to include the primary highways such a s US21 and US-27," Jones said. The State Highway Dept. and the attorney general's office a r e investigating violations of the 1966 billboard control law which bars signs within 660 feet of the riRht-of-way of any Interstate or primary highway, with certain exceptions for business and industrial areas,' m within 660'feet of the right of-way, said Henrik E. Stafseth, state highway director, in a p r e pared release. "Some 26,000 were in rural areas, principal target of the control law,* the report stated.

Co-op, according to Earl Beck, Emergency number interests Gen. Tel General Telephone has offered to assist governmental units within Its central division operating area in exploring the possible use of "911" as an emergency number, according to B. R. Davis, central division manager. Billed as a "universal emergency number" when it was introduced early in 1968 by the Bell System, the "911" concept Is not easily implemented. Nationally, only 72 cities, nearly all of them small and none of them in Michigan, have adopted the short number to make it easier for the public to report emergencies. Some of the problems which must be solved before the "911" concept can' be Introduced in a community include; determining which agencies will participate; designating the responsibilityfor manning the "answer bureau;" determining how to finance the bureau; and deciding on the area to be served. Davles also pointed out that the telephone company must provide additional central office equip- Page n A N E W S , St. Johns, M i c h i g a n ment which were erected after asked to report on every new Jan. 1, 1968 can be removed at billboard that goes up along the the owner's expense.

Att. Gen. Frank J . Kelley Is not satisfied with the present law and has asked members of his staff, the highway dept., and the legislature to revise the law and the program to meet the problem. Kelley noted that Mlcigan's billboard control law is weaker than those in at least 25 other s t a t e s , which have collected more than $3.7 million in federal bonuses for restricting billboards.

Wealch, in his first year with the department, will handle special problems of conservation regulations and will police the county for violations. Wealch and wife Joanne have two children and reside at 314 E. Madison, DeWltt. Both men explained some of the problems recently encountered in their conservation work. "The picking up of wild baby animals by local residents has been quite a problem,* Wealch said. "There is a serious possibility of the animal biting the 'person'•* causing infe'6t'ibrin,'Snd ^ sickness. "If they could leave these baby animals alone, many of our problems would be solved," he said. "In fact, it is against the law and could bring a $100 fine and a jail sentence," Wealch added. Wealch indicated that he does not like to issue a summons for a first offense. "Most people do not realize that these things are against the law," he said. Both men felt that if violations continue, a stricter approach will be taken.

As one of the first steps In meeting the challenges of the ( 70's, the Michigan Tourist Council has adopted a bold new slogan designed to create more travel to Michigan by out-of-state vacationers, "The Michigans-the Almost Islands of the Great Lakes" will be the 1970-71 advertising campaign theme as the result of official action by the Council during its April meeting in Detroit. "Never before has a campaign theme so aptly described the uniqueness of Michigan," said Ron Gamble, Council chairman. "Michigan is the only two-part state in the union, and on the map it appears to be islands nestled in the midst of the magnificent Great Lakes." f^RpTN g u i d e v ^ ° V ^ A ^ y Festival of the Week "Among the states, competition for tourist dollars is fierce," Gamble said, "because modern travel literally has placed the world at the vacationer's doorstep." "If we are to attain our goal During its two-day session, the Council reviewed proposals for the 1970-71 advertising campaign, with final approval scheduled for a subsequent meeting. The new slogan will serve as the underlying theme of the new campaign, appearing in media advertisements and on Council literature. warning is given Tervo was referring to the annual so-called "gypsy paving racket" in which bands of itinerate gypsies go house to house about this time of year offering to re-surface your drivewaywith a tar-based substance for a few r dollars.

She wants to encourage her youngster's natural curiosity (one of our greatest learning experiences) yet at the same time prevent disasters that may come of such curiosity. Children are born explorers and what better place than the home surroundings for providing such fascinating areas of discovery. Low cabinets, easy to reach shelves and drawers, and closets all containing bottles, boxes, cans and jars invite an inquisitive child to investigate, A youngster seldom can distinguish between foods and non-food items, either by taste or odor. With the huge number of aids to help today's homemaker keep her house and surroundings clean, shining and Insect free, there are bound to be a wide variety of dangerous products among them. Carelessly stored medications, lotions, alcoholic beverages and other non-food Items in their attractive colors and containers pique the average child's inquisitiveness too. It takes a bit of ingenuity, time and effort, for one to devise methods and organize space to set up "child-proof safety areas" In most compact homes. But if it can save your child's life, or even his illness and discomfort, it's worth while. A few "rules" can help In this organization. Keep all household chemical preparations in their original containers. To a child, a soda pop bottle, a cup or a bowl, is something to drink from! That red cleaning solution you've put in a pop bottle, reminds him of his favorite red "pop," so he drinks it from the pop bottle. Besides, the original container carries information on the label in the event of accidental ingestion. Keep the product where you can see it while using it. A moment's pause to answer the door bell or telephone is ample ,;^&^^^^{ time for a child to drink from the container. Never, store non-food Items with food items. It's too easy to pick up the wrong container In the rush of meal time preparation. Pesticides, fertilizers, paint thinners and such are best kept locked up and out of the kitchen. Keep all medicines and lotions locked in a medicine cabinet. Pink, yellow, green or orange pills are mighty tempting to the exploring child. Never call medicines "candy" to entice a child to take his necessary medication. He may grab a handful when you aren't looking. When discarding empty containers, be certain they are empty. 'It's been found that todmany accidents occur when a child reaches into a refuse containers in search of a bottle or can to use as a toy. Too many times he decides to taste the contents. Know how to reach your doctor, or local Poison Control Center, if the need arises. The records of child poisoning due t.o carelessness in the home becomes more staggering each year. Let your vigilance keep you one step ahead of your child's developing c u r i o s i t y . Don't wait, stop right now and check to be sure all harmful products in your home are safely stored and well out of reach of your child. State alfalfa yields # may top estimates Michigan farmers may be getting much higher alfalfa yields than previously estimated in reports to census takers and the federal-state crop reporting service. Samples taken from 527 Michigan farms during the 1969 crop season showed farmers taking three cuttings averaging 4.09 tons an acre. Those cutting twice, averaged 3.02 tons an acre, while farmers making one cutting averaged two tons an acre, although some regrowth may have been grazed for pasture. Two tons an acre is the estimate commonly used by the crop reporting service in Michigan. Samples were taken by the Michigan Cooperative Extension Service. All yields were measured on a dry matter basis— the moisture being removed before the samples were weighed. Of the 527 farmers in the Alfalfa Booster Campaign, 244 made two cuttings. Another 95 farmers cut their alfalfa three times and, as a result, got an extra ton of alfalfa an acre. The 186 farmers cutting only once had an average dry matter yield of two tons an acre. Donald Hillman, extension . dairy specialist, and LeytonNel- ' son, extension crops and soils specialist, are co-chairman of the extension committee. The three year project 'is designed to: (1) determine the yields and quality of Michigan's hay crop over a wide range of farm conditions, and (2) to determine the potential yields and quality of forage crops when specified management practices are controlled. The chairmen report the computer analysis of the statewide samples showed the yield was positively related to the soil test (amount of phosphorous and potash on land) and an application of boron in the fertilizer.

Only complete, carefully kept farm b o o k s can keep you on the "straight and narrow" path to continued net profits. High yields may win contests but they don't always result in increased bank .deposits. " One Illinois grower who is a consistent contest winner is John Reiser, of Ashland in the west central part of the state. He has won first place for four consecutive years, then fourth in 1968, and second in 1969. Sixyear average pn contest plots is now 73.6 bushels per acre, and his farm average is comfortably about 50 bushels. Reiser relies heavily on extensive farm record-keeping to tell him which combinations of cultural practices earn him the most net profit per acre. His two-year corn soybean rotation is, he says, best for himbecause he hasn't found continuous corn or beans as agronomically sound and productive on his rich prairie soils. He applies fertilizer to all his fields to meet their test needs. In fact, all fields are treated on an individual basis. Liming is also based on Frequent soil testing. At planting he shoots for not more than seven beans per foot of row to give his the optimum plant population in his 30-inch rows, whose'width he has settled on after years of experimentation. Reiser continuestoexperiment but when it comesto weed control he relies year after year on Amiben to give him control of both broadleaf and grassy weed species. He has found granular A m i b e n , rather than liquid, easier to handle for his particular planting operation, and applies the material in about 12-inch bands.

MEACH Extension Home Economist It has been estimated that an automatic dishwasher cuts the time in half that Mrs Average Homemaker spends in front of the sink. There are other benefits too—dishes are washed cleaner and are more sanitary than those washed by hand. Less water is used because in most homes it is necessary to run the machine only once a day. Meanwhile dishes are quickly loaded and the door closed ending the clutter of dirty dishes in and around the sink.

Amerlcal Div., APO San Francisco, Calif. 96374 News About Clinton County The Numbers Game with Phosphates in detergents Service Pettomel NATHAN J. DUBOIS, son of Mr and Mrs Nathan L. DuBois of 2352 N. Ovid Road, Ovid, has been promoted to sergeant in the U,S, Air Force. Sgt. DuBois is a life support equipment specialist at Perrin AFB, Tex. He is assigned to a unit of the Aerospace Defense Command which protects theU.S, against hostile aircraft and missiles. The sergeant, whose wife, Judy, is the daughter of Mr and Mrs William J. Mitchell of 621 E. Orange, Sherman, Tex., graduated in 1967 from Ovid-Elsie High School. A PUBLIC INFORMATION STATEMENT BY AM WAY CORPORATION Recently il has become popular to compile and circulate lists purporting to show the percentage of phosphate in detergents and allied cleaning products, The apparent purpose of these lists is to encourage the reader to use low phosphate content products in the interest of cleaner lake and stream water. While the intent of this activity is laudable, the lists wc have seen are so full ijjf errors and omissions--wc believe they arc l|est ignored. Here is why we make this statement': First: Amway makes 21 laundry and general cleaning products. Eleven contain no phosphate, 2 less than 2%, and the other 8 have varying amounts according to the purpose they are intended to serve. Yet one widely published list shows only ONE listing of Amway •— using simply the trademark "Amway" with no designation of the type of product and showing "73,5% phosphate." To publish a list simply showing a company name with a percentage seems to us about as inaccurate as to publish the name "General Motors — 400 h.p." in a list of auto horsepower ratings. Second: Another list compares Amway's enzyme pre-soak product (TriZyme) with a group of heavy duty and light duty detergents. This is like comparing apples with bananas. Products, if to be meaningfully compared on the basis of phosphate content, should be carefully classified as to intended use. An enzyme pre-soak should be compared with other enzyme pre-soaks. a heavy duty detergent with other heavy duty detergents, a dishwashing detergent with other dishwashing detergents, etc. Third: No mention of the amount of the product one would expect to use is made1 in most of the lists. A low phosphate detergent used in lavish quantities in order to get clothes clean may actually put considerably more phosphate in the water than a high phosphate product that need only be used sparingly because of its high cleaning power. A low phosphate product used frequently might put much more phosphate into the water than a higher phosphate product used only occasionally. Fourth: One list recognized the fallacy of comparing products merely on a percentage basis, and set about to correct the error by publishing a comparison based on grams of phosphate used per wash cycle and parts per million in the eflluent. Unfortunately the compiler of this list flunked his arithmetic, Grams per wash were listed as Amway S-A-8: 39.9, and included in the list were six others listed as 18.!, 20.0, 23.5, 24.1. 26.1. and 27.1 grams per wash cycle respectively. Our laboratory carefully re-checked the work and found the grams per cycle comparison is actually Amway S-A-8: 36.8, and the six others mentioned above are 38.4 instead of 18.1; 34.7 instead of 20.0; 51 instead of 23.5; 44.1. instead of 24.1; 34.2 instead of 26.1; and 37.4 instead of 27.1. In addition, the use amount quoted for Amway S-A-8 is almost double what many users actually put in their machine, so for many users the grams per wash load of Amway S-A-8 would be closer to 20 for actual use dilutions. A Better Guide. Wc suggest a good general rule to follow regarding phosphate content in cleaning products and detergents is< that with present day brands, most products intended for the same use contain relatively similar percentages of phosphate by weight. Classifications are as follows: Phosphate Content Classification expressed as % of PO, Heavy duty laundry powders 30 — 45% (Amway S-A-8 Plus —34.8%) Light duty laundry powders 15 — 30% Liquid hand dishwashing detergents less than 1% (Amway Dish Dropr^- 0%; Wednesday, May 13,v 1970 Amway L.O.C. Suds — 0%) Machine dishwasher detergents 30 — 45% (Amway Automatic Dishwashing Compound —33.3%) Liquid laundry products 0 —'l 0% (Amway L.O.C. Regular — 0%; Amway Germicidal — 0%; v Ifa&^°fner»^3»i \. .. liia^uid'alPpulpose'cleTnefs *" '"O — 1% (Amway Zoom — 1.4%; Amway Industroclean— 1.3%; Amway Car Wash — 0%) Enzyme pre-soaks about 50% (Amway Tri-Zyme — 54.2% Water softening products about 80% (Amway Water Softening Compound — 83.8%; Amway Smashing White — 22%) But note this: The above percentages reflect phosphate content expressed as percent of PO4. The phosphate compound used in these products when so expressed is only about 33% phospjiorous, the element all the talk is about. Therefore, total phosphorous content of the products is about one-third that shown above. What You Can Do about it. We suggest that if you have a concern about phosphate getting into streams and lakes the following would be a common sense approach: 1. Work with your local governments to encourage all municipalities in your area to build 3-stage sewage disposal systems as soon as possible. Hundreds of industrial and household chemicals and pollutants from human wastes are going into streams now because of inadequate sewage treatment facilities. The time has come to build facilities to clean up a// of our sewage water and control the total problem. It is estimated removal of phosphate and certain other chemicals from effluent water of a 3-stage disposal system can be accomplished for an operating cost of less than $3. per person per year. This is a broader and more effective solution to the problem than reformulating detergents and other household products, because at least half of the phosphate in sewage comes from human wastes, and reformulated detergents won't change that.-Also, reformulation of cleaning products with phosphate subr stitutes that totally eliminate the phosphate, even if technically and economically feasible (which it presently is not) might result in only substituting other ingredients with other problems when the effluent reaches streams. 2. Since phosphate content products are used principally in the laundry, it may be possible to dispose of your washing machine water in another way than through the public drain. You may be accomplishing this already, since correctly built septic tanks probably introduce no phosphate into public waters. 3. If you are connected to a city sewer system which does not have complete disposal facilities, and phosphate nutrients in streams are considered a serious problem in your community, you can use a general purpose nonphosphate liquid detergent to do your laundry such as Amway's unique "L.O.C." You must be prepared for a lower level of dirt and soil removal from clothes, however, and you may have to resort to some of the laundering techniques of bygone years such as overnight soaking and boiling. 4. Amway offers a full line of cleaning products carefully formulated for specific purposes., Amway's high performance products used according to directions will produce good results even when used sparingly. When nothing but phosphate containing products will do the job. Amway's products of that type can be re- lied upon to do the work most economically and with no need to use excessive quantities. What Is Amway Doing about Pollution? Amway is deeply concerned, like any good citizen. Here is Amway's "clean water^program: 1. Even though there is a difference of scientific opinion as to whether the elimination of phosphates in detergents will have a significant effect on eutroptiication of lake's, Amway chemists are actively evaluating phosphate substitutes for detergent use that will be economic, efficient, and not cause unforeseen worse problems than phosphate is alleged to cause now. 2. Amway now offers a number of nonphosphate cleaning products that can be used for most cleaning tasks. With regard to heavy duty laundry products, Amway has contacted all possible sources in the free world for phosphate substitutes. Satisfactory substitutes are presently not available in commercial quantity, but when and if available, Amway will produce quality laundry products using such substitutes in the amount that the supply allows. Meanwhile, every effort will be made to limit the phosphate content of laundry products to a degree consistent with satisfactory performance. * s * Marine Cpl. JAMES G. MAHONEY, of 213 First North Street, Laingsburg, is now serving with the Second Marine Division, Camp Lejeune, N.C. * * Second Lt. JON J. RHYNARD, son of Mrs Dorothy Rhynard, R-2, Shelburn, Ind., has been awarded U.S, Air Force silver pilot wings upon graduation at Laughlin AFB, Tex. Following specialized aircrew training at other bases, he will be assigned to Bien Hoa AB, Vietnam. He will be an 0-2A Super Skymaster pilot in the 504th Tactical Air Support Group, a unit of the Pacific Air Forces, headquarters for air operations in Southeast Asia, the Far East and'Pacific area. Lt. Rhynard, a 1964 graduate of North Central High School, received his B. S. degree in 1968 from Rose Polytechnic Institute in Terre Haute, Ind. He was commissioned in 1969 upon completion of Officer Training School at Lackland AFB, Tex. The lieutenant's father, Jason Rhynard, resides at 705 Garfield Street, St. Johns. * * CHARLES H, BOOTS HI, 20, whose parents live on R-l, St. Johns, recently was promoted to Army specialist four while serving as a drill instructor in Company E, 17th Battalion, 5th Training Brigade, U.S. Army Training Center, Armor, at Ft. Knox, Ky. 3. Amway has long been in the forefront in the field of promoting clean water. Amway marketed detergent products with biodegradable surfactants as much as five years before most of the industry converted. Surfactants are an indispensable ingredient in any detergent product, and present day surfactants used in all detergent products are of a type that can be consumed by bacteria in sewage plants and streams and converted to harmless materials. 4. Sortie confusion exists in understanding the new terminology regarding pollution matters. For instance, biodeRradability of surfactants is technically an entirely different matter than acceleration of plant growth in lake waters by excess nutrients such as phosphate. Many new terms have only recently come into popular use, such as eutrophtcation, ecology, thermal pollution, oxygen depletion and algal nutrients. This necessitates more exact definition of formerly used terms, such as biodegradability of surfactants, Amway will conduct an educational program to provide its distributors and customers with better understanding of these terms. Future label and advertising copy will include the new terminology with today's connotations. 5. Amway suggests citizens keep these matters in proper perspective. Cleaning up the pollution of our environment — water, air and land — is a great challenge for all of us in this decade. It is a serious problem, .with world-wide ramifications. To arouse public interest and support, predictions of impending disaster are being widely published. Facts are not always being separated from opinions. Industry and . government become easy scapegoats. But this must not lead to hastily contrived programs and actions that may actually worsen the situation by using funds that could be better spent on well planned long term solutions. We all want a clean environment. We will achieve it best by well reasoned and well planned actions based upon scientifically proven facts, not by hasty actions based on emotional speculation.

Names like Cambodia and Kent State have not only caused apprehension and sorrow, but they have further riled the muddy waters of unrest across the country. That regenerated dissent has clear indications of dashing whatever hopes existed for a calm summer. We do not like the war, nor do we supp o r t ' t h e violent tactics and rebellions of maniac - like protestors. But in this big mess there is one faction we strongly support. He's the man in the chow line, in the rice paddy or the one laying battered on a Vietnamese hillside. There can be little question that our young people serving in Vietnam would rather be home and, in our mind, there can be even less doubt that if they were home they would be looking with disgust on the antics of their student counterparts. The man under the helmet is only too well aware that violence is fruitless. He has been taught and trained to kill but for those who must employ their skill, life is never quite the same. The likelihood of their participation in campus demonstrations is small. Our man in Vietnam is not there because he enjoys it. He's there because he has a sense of obligation and a motivation to complete that duty. He is not demonstrating or - rebelling. He is plodding ahead with hope for the day when he can return to the. life intended for him by American beliefs and traditions. It is unfortunate that in these days many members of the welcoming home committee stand with c o n t o r t e d faces and clenched fists. What is eveli l e s s fortunate is the probability that these E people, despite their defiant appearances, have less endurance to meet society's challenges. The man in Vietnam calls this endurance guts. He should know. He's got plenty. STERLING, m . , GAZETTE: "School vandalism is a serious and growing problem. . . One school, however, r e ports that is has virtually eliminated vandalism by a simple procedure. The anti-vandalism program at suburban Park Elementary School in Alhambra, California, involves the frequent, random checking of the premises by parents, usually in husband-and-wlfe pairs, during weekends. The 20 pairs of-parents who are voluntarily participating are not armed and are not authorized to make a r r e s t s . But the mere fact that checks are beirtg made is serving as a deterrent to youngsters who consider an unbroken pane of glass to be a personal affront.

The hasty and those Which whites attend. Disagrees with printing of Dobson poem questionable conclusions drawn For example, black students are less likely than whites to attend schools that have wellstocked libraries or which offer advanced courses in subjects such as science and language, and are more likely to be in overcrowded schools than white students. Also- black students, according to the 1967 Report, are more likely than white students to have teachers with low verbal achievement, to have substitute teachers, and to have teachers who are dissatisfied with their school assignment. The education section of the "Report of the National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders" (The Kerner Report) of 1968 alsd points out these and other important facts to be considered before formulating an opinion on this matter. The purpose of a newspaper ought to be to provide the public with the best possible knowledge on all sides of an tissue and to offer its opinion in clearly labeled form. The poem "Integration" in my opinion does not live up to this purpose. Paul W. Merritt 84 Midland Highland Park, Michigan We entered what was basically a civil war. We entered on the side of the minority of the Vietnamese. We have destroyed a way of life mainly rice paddy farming and have offered no new way of living. Through our "foreign policy," our "military strategy" we are trying to "Americanize" a country that did not understand, did not want, did not need, and would not accept Americanization. We are. trying to force free election means in an area that has no background, no history of, or desire for free elections. We are attempting to force a democracy by the killing of thousands of Vietnamese people In a foreign country. The future for South Vietnam Is bleak. We have driven the rural people from the land Into the city that has no way of life except that on a dependence on relief. Our military live In an outdated world.

If charged and found guilty of this violation, a felony, we would be ineligible to serve in the Legislature. Conviction should be easy. Most of us would admit our guilt and there were many witnesses. We received a marijuana cigarette in the mail, unsolicited, glong with some Instructions on how to use it and a few words describing the benefits of its use. At first, many of us doubted it was really marijuana but p r e liminary tests indicate it was the real McCoy and apparently of high quality.

Various legislators are guilty of the same offense having passed the cigarette on to an unauthorized p e r son, in some cases, it ,was to a reporter who came around and in other cases to another legislator who said he was going to turn it over to the authorities. ^Here's something interesting. We would no^have been anymore^ guilty had we gone ahead and smoked the cigarette! Possession is a more serious offense ,than use. I don't believe the shaggy, rather intolerant group of White Panthers who showed up at the Capitol to encourage us to use the cigarettes and to legalize m a r ijuana. But the tactic they used c e r tainly brought home to the Legislature one of the points being n\ade by a d v o c a t e s of some changes in our laws regarding marijuana.

There was no executive r e s t room. There was 1 restroom for everybody, including the boss's 5-year-old"son, The first time I used it I was thrilled. The John was in the part of the building jutting out over the water. When you looked into the toilet seat, all you saw was the St Clair River, about 30 feet v below. "Gee Dad," I said, "that's neat. You don't even have to flush it." During those same years, ny m o t h e r used to t a k e me swimming in Lake Huron. And may be h a z a r d o u s to your health. Dow of Canada is dumping mercury into the water'and this makes the fish risky eating, the scientists say. I don't doubt it. I grew up on the banks of the St Clair, where it separates Port Huron, U.S.A. from Sarnia, Canada. I never fished in my life because I wouldn't want anyone putting a hook in my mouth. But I used to swim regularly in the St Clair. And in those days, alsoJJowand other factories were spitting large amounts of suspect waste into the water and air.

Clickity-dick . . . buzz-rrup By RON KARLE, Editor I've decided to change telephone companies. This decision was made In a fit of frustration the other day when I tried to call all the way to Bath.

I dialed everything properly like it says in the bookand settled back to hear the instrument respond with the tradi- . tional click-click, click-clickf click, click, and a clickity - , click.

"Ai TAKING FIVE A best seller h By RON HUARD If Time magazine is right, there is a whole lot of buying going on but very little reading. In a footnote to one of their stories in a recent issue, Time pointed out that the King James version of the bible continues to set the pace in the bookbuying field by a substantial margin. Now, as long as I can remember the bible has held this spot but I've often tried to'figure out who does all the bible buying. When did you last buy a bible? Or receive one as a gift? A bible is a family treasure, it seems, and once one makes the ranks it's handed down and„ down and all the while it collects family notes and memorabilia between its covers. It comes to religion. In fact I haven't read any more from the bible than what the good nuns and priests encouraged as they tried to raise my grades to a passing level. But it seems strange that so many bibles continue to be sold and yet the messages don't seem to be getting a c r o s s . Maybe just having a bible among the books In the family library is^a status symbol. Maybe it appears there to neutralize the presence q$ "Valley of the Dolls" and T h e Arrangement." * * It's hard to say w h a t the reason is that keeps the bible at the top of the sales charts', but whatever force it is it seems to be working. From the looks of the way t h i n g s are going, it's too bad our reading doesn't match our buying. OPINION COMMENTS FROM OTHER PAPERS But on the sales charts bibles continue to lead the pack. Obviously the G i d e o n s must be supplying a heck of a lot of motel and hotel rooms to keep the book in its top spot. GAFPNEY, S.C., LEDGER: "So manypeopleareyelltng stop the war in Vietnam and'the screams seem to be aimed exclusively at the United States, Why don't they aim some of their yells at the other side,' too, and curve a few toward Russia and China? Let's be fair about it. It lakes two to start a war and two to stop it. This the protestors don't seem to realize. It's Uncle Sam do this, and Uncle Sam do that." In any event* there's*a whole mess of bibles being spread across our population and it appears to me that if we were reading this like we read some of the best sellers a few of our traditional values might gain some support.

BALLENGER Stats Representative i S; ' Anumber of bills and resolutions concerning new rights and responsibilities for young people have recently been introduced in the Michigan House of Representatives. House Joint Resolution A, which has already been passed by the House and sent to the State Senate, would place on the ballot, in the coming November election, a proposed constitutional amendment to lower the minimum voting age from 21 to 18, Twice, in recent years, Michigan voters have soundly defeated proposals to lower the voting age. Most recently in 1*966, the needed constitutional amendment was defeated by a roughly 2 to 1 margin. House Joint Resolutions CCC and III, if approved by the ^voters, would add an elected student representative to the governing boards of state-supported colleges and universities, while House Joint Resolution DDD would add a student member to the State Board of Education, House Joint Resolution EEE would create a students' grievance committee to hear complaints about expulsions and suspensions and other university actions. • THESE MEASURES would Hardly affect the major policy decisions in higher education, since they add a single student 'vote to eight-member boards. But a student representative might well serve as a spokesman and ombudsman, bringing youthful thought and sentiment tfa bear on the policy-determining process, and giving the student body in general a clearer voice and a stake in the orderly operation of a university. v One controversial proposal, House Bill 4303, would permit students to vote, if otherwise qualified, at their college r e s idences, rather than their hometowns. Opponents of this measure argue that students are only temporary residents of college towns and have little real concern for the future of such communities. .On the other hand, it could be contended that many nonstudent citizens are also r e s idents of communities for four years or less, with no one disputing their right to vote there. Most students look upon their colleges as their residences, and many do not return to their parents' communities upon graduation. In most instances today, we hqld persons .accused of crimes responsible for their conduct as adults at age 17. (If juvenile oo.urts waive jurisdiction, even 15-year-olds may be tried as adults.) Yet while the U.S. Constitution guarantees a trial before a jury of one's "peers" or equals, our statutes insist that jurors be 21 or older—in most cases, much older. ' Whether or not this is truly constitutional has never been tested in the higher courts. But HB 4241 would erase a substantial portion of this discrepancy be permitting 18- year-olds to serve as jurors on a voluntary basis. House Bill 4240 would lower to 18 the age at which persons can circulate certain types of petitions and serve as precinct delegates to political conventions. This change, in my opinion, is long overdue and should be the least controversial measure in the entire "Youth Bill of Rights" package. PERHAPS, IN a sense, both political parties are guilty of inconsistent p r a c t i c e s—the courting of youth with one hand and the closing of doors * to them with the other—is merely a reflection of a larger hypocrisy that • permeates our society as a whole. Perhaps the essential questions to be answered are these: Are we making the so-called "Generation Gap" a reality rather than a catchword by instilling, in young people, a growing sense of alienation Mrs Alice Blunt, former, Elsie Foran and Bouck comprise the clerk has» again been named law enforcement committee; village clerk, succeeding Mrs Lentz and Heideman the budget Lenore Foran, who Is 111. committee.
