About Jack Dailey / The tragic, untimely passing of such a fine young man as Jack Dailey creates a feeling of sorrow and sympathy in which words fail to express Decatur’s feelings. • This is the type of happening which causes even the most faithful person, the most optimistic, to wonder and perhaps to doubt. Is there any reason, any justice, in the passing of a 19-year-old youth like Jack? Where is its purpose? We cannot begin to answer these questions. Each person must answer them for hintself, and his answer will be true only to himself. But we can say this. If people will remember what Jack did, and how he lived, perhaps the world will be better off, and improve as times passes. * Many of us have little time for the “community” as such, and have time only for ourselves. But think of the way that Jack lived. In nineteen short years he built a reputation for responsibility and respect for others that many with three score-years-and-ten may well envy. He did not neglect himself — he was a champion NEIC golfer in high school, a scholastic letter winner and consistent member of the honor roll. He was photographer for the yearbook, and active in the band. But he was much more than that. He was active in his Methodist church youth fellowship, in his scout troop, where he became a Life scout, in his church choir, and in the Decatur student council, in the Decatur Youth Center. He gave of himself to his community, and in return had the heartfelt respect and interest of the people of Decatur. In 1959 he went to Japan for the summer in the exchange student program, and became such fast friends with the Japanese he met there, that they in turn visited him in this country. So many of us today run the treadmill of life as though nothing but self-pleasure is the end. We can leave no heritage. Yet in just nineteen years, two years before becoming a legal “man”, Jack Dailey had already built up respect for his achievements and ability. Not only in his memory, but in each of us consciously trying to do those things, that Jack would have done -s- in this way he can live on in this world for all time to come. Let’s take the best of Jack, and keep It living and working, as he would have wished. Editorial Writer Today Dick D. Heller, Jr.

Forecast Os Coal Industry Future Tough EDITOBB NOTE — This is the last of three dispatches on the coal industry. It discusses some of the unpredictable forces that will figure In coal’s future. By JOSEPH D. HUTNYAN United Press International WASHINGTON (UPI) — Several imponderables make forecasting the destiny of the coal industry a difficult assignment with a potentially wide margin of error. The “experts” of past generations found this out. For instance, in 1925 one reputable forecaster said, “. . .Os all the fuels now in use. . .coal is the only one which seems to have much of a future.” Since the turn of the century, coal’s share of the energy market has shrunk from 89 per cent to 23 per cent. The forecasters in the past failed to see oil and natural gas on the fuel horizon. The Bureau of Mines, after analyzing considerable data, predicts that coal’s declining economic fortunes will stabilize during the next 14 years, and begin to inch upward. The forecast envisions a 670 million ton production year by 1975. This year’s total consumption is expected to hit about 400 million tons. ■ 22 . ’ But the forecasters quickly point out that several impossible-to-cal-culate factors could upset everything. One of these is the state of the world. Brushfire wars or other developments of international power politics could shut off oil supplies or open up new sources. Either way, it would have an Impact on the economic standing of the coal industry. Technological advances among energy sources also will reshape the future of coal. Researchers are working on two exciting possibilities—a coal-fired gas turbine and a new coal-slurry burning process—which may be the industry’s economic salvation.
