Previously, other stories have highlighted other similar acts of vandalism that do nothing but destroy property. It may come as a surprise to many people, but there is a large amount of stupid, wanton destruction done in Adams county each year. It probably amounts to no more than is done in other areas, in proportion to the population, but that does not excuse it. Recently, over a thousand dollars damage has been done by vandals with B-B guns shooting out windows. The damage was not aimed at any particular socio-economic area of the community. It was, and is being, done to business houses, private homes and public buildings. Public rest rooms, new and used cars on lots, public seating, construction equipment left at a site and mail boxes are other targets for the senseless destruction. Pschychologists could probably explain the damage as a means of either rebelling against something, or a secret striving for recognition. Regardless of the reasons, the rising vandalism throughout the country shows that there is considerably less respect for other people’s property. The usual opinion is that most of the blame can be laid on youngsters. No one knows if they are directly responsible, to begin with. And if children are doing most of the damage, it is a question for debate as to whether it is their fault even then. Many people would place the blame on the parents. Parents can not be held responsible for every action of their children. But they are responsible for the attitudes developed by those children. If some youngsters lack a respect for the property of others, it does not necessarily mean their parents have the same lack of respect. It would seem to show, however, that the parents have failed to take the time to develop in their children the same worthwhile qualities that they possess. In this day of many places to go for both business and entertainment, it is easy to foster off many of the responsibilities of parenthood onto someone else. A babysitter or a tax-payed supervisor can organize and conT3a , trol children for a certain period of time, but they are not responsible for the moral development of the children. That is still, and always will be, the first responsibility of the parents in the home. Parental interest will not necessarily completely remove all vandalism, but it will help to curb a lot of it.

House, Senate Leaders Named For Assembly INDIANAPOLIS (UPl)—Republicans and Democrats of House and Senate were futiy organized today lor smsion of the Indiana LegisTßturewfth attorneys Richard Wayne Guthrie of Indianapolis and S. Hugh DiHin of Petersburg holding the top roles of the majority parties. Guthrie was the surprise winner of the House speakership by virtue of a five-ballot triumph in a meeting Os the 66 House Republicans. Dillon won the Senate pro tern presidency as expected at a caucus of the 26 Democratic senators. House minority Democrats elected Rep. Birch Bayh Jr., West Terre Haute, as their floor leader. Bayh was speaker in the 1959 session which the Democrats controlled. Bainbridge Caucus Chairman Others elected in a day of organizing by Democrats in both bouses and Republican representatives included Sen. Eugene Bainbridge of Munster, Democratic majority Senate caucus chairman; Rep. William E. Babincsak of Munster, Democratic minority House caucus chairman; Rep. Glenn R. Slenker of Monticello, Republican majority House floor leader, and Rep. Ralph Waltz of Hagerstown, Republican majority House caucus chairman. Guthrie's victory came as a surprise because the apparent leader for that position was former House speaker James D. Allen of Salem, and Guthrie had not been given too much of a chance because another Marion County legislator, Sen. C. Wendell Martin of Indianapolis, previously was elected Senate minority floor leader. Guthrie, Allen and Waltz fought it out through a maze of ballots. On the fourth ballot, Allen received only nine votes and he dropped out. On the fifth and deciding ballot, Guthrie edged Waltz 33-29. Dillin had no opposition for the top Senate majority post. Neither he nor Bainbridge had any trouble winning their offices. Babincsak, however, ran into a three-way fight for House minority caucus chairman with Reps. Robert L. Rock of Anderson and Joe A. Harris of Carlisle. Rock dropped out after two ballots, the third ballot was voided for a tally error, and Babincsak won 18-15 over Harris on the fourth. Foltz Drops Out Previously, Rep. Donald E. Foltz of Clinton, the 1959 House minority floor leader, announced he was not a candidate for caucus chairman. House Republicans also elected Mrs. Frances Gaylord, Lafayette, Tippecanoe County Republican vice chairman, as House clerk. She defeated William Brummett, Jeffersonville. Paul Swisher defeated Pete Vlassis, Goshen, for doorkeeper and former Rep. Roy West of Amo was named postmaster in a close contest with Oliver Updyke of DeKalb County. Cub Scout Pack 3063 Meets Monday Night Cub pack 3063 met Monday at the Northwest school, with assistant cubmaster Cecil Shaffer presiding. The meeting was opened by den 11, who presented the American flag and gave the Cub Scout promise.

Den 2 had a skit about people from outerspace visiting this planet. Advancement chairman William Hutker awarded the following boys Bobcat badges: Mike Dellinger, Scotty Christen, Dennis Shady. Jerry Hosier, Billy Kelly, Kenny Hoverman, Terry Miller, Ronnie Landrum, Tim Atkinson, and Terry Hawkins. A Bear badge was awarded to Bill Rickord.

The next pack meeting will be Saturday, December 17 at 3 p m. The meeting will be in the form of a Christmas party and Mrs. Robert Christen of den 3, Mrs. Joe Call of den IT and Mrs. Clifford Hovefmin of den 4 will be, in charge.
