Control Os The Seas For Future Peace Partlll - Political While the communist bloc has its problems concerning future expansion, the western countries are also stymied by present world sentiment from increasing the number of military installations overseas. It is not at all difficult to imagine the uproar that would be caused if this nation attempted to negotiate for a new base site in South America or Africa. With nationism at a high peak in history, the cry of colonialism would be blared from every communist loudspeaker. . U.S. islands of seapower could very easily answer these needs without hurting any political feelings. There are no borders for these bases to worry about — no air corridors that assume so much importance with political hair-splitters like the communists. ■ jl ■ Entirely within the realm of international law, it is easily possible for this nation to place a self-contained but mobile base within three miles of any coast in 4 the world. From this base, which is creating no political problem, can be launched any sort of striking power available today. For centuries, the vast areas of Africa and southern Asia have been “looked after” politically by England and other European nations. Today, new nations emerge from this area almost daily. They are now new nations that are prime targets for communism unless we can extend our influence to them. Through control of the seas, we can extend that influence. « We can draw these nations into the world / n markets; take to them the manufactured articles they so desperately need; and generally help to raise their standard of living. Peace is only the first objective of the United States. The big, overall goal is to raise the standard of living throughout the world and better mankind’s existence. To achieve these goals, control of the seas is imperative. Editorial Writer Today John G. Heller

Nine - Year Old Decatur Boy Is Quarter Midget Club Racer I if*, V Jk. 5 Jal “RAPID ROBERT”— Bobby Robinson, local quarter midget race driver, is shown above with his father, Kenneth, before a recent race., Special notice should be taken, of the car, which is the exact replica of a full-scale midget race car.

By Bob Shraluka Decatur's own “little 500-miler" could best describe a nine-year-old Lincoln school student—Bobby Robinson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Robinson of 45 Vindale Trail in this city. The Robinsons moved to Decatur from Plainfield, last September, and brought with them a son who is very well known throughout the state of Indiana, especially when you consider his tender years. Bobby, or “Rapid Robert" as is printed on the side of his racing vehicle, is a member of the Quarter Midgets of a club which spans the entire United States, with headquarters located in Los Angeles, Calif. He won the heat race and placed second in the trophy clash and feature race at Huntington quarter midget race held Thursday, June 21. and copped the trophy dash and feature at Attica, on Sunday.

a “quarter midget,” the exact replica of a full scale midget racing car, as shown in the accompanying photo. The car is not a go-kart, but a midget racer, on a smaller scale. Bobby was champ in the northern Indiana association of the QMA of Indiana in 1960, representing Kokomo, and finished in the runner-up spot last year in the northern division racing circuit, representing Plainfield. Since the family has moved to Decatur; Bobby is the only known quarter-midget driver representing this city, and possibly the only race driver at all at present, living in Decatur. Typical Driver His father, Kenneth, who is employed at C.T.S. in Berne, says the boy is “typical of most bigtime drivers,” as he lets his machanic, who is his father, do most of the work on the car, while the boy does all the cleaning of the racer. “And he does a real good job of it," as his father goes on to explain. Bobby does most of his racing in the three near-by Quarter Midget Racing clubs at Kokomo, Wabash and Huntington, but has also raced in many other cities in Indiana, including Indianapolis, and in the state of Illinois. Last summer he was coached by two of the “greats," Parnelli Jones and Bobby Grim, the latter of whom is a very good friend of his father. , a There are three age classes for quarter midget racers, the novice class, boys from. four to six years of age; junior stock, four to eight years, inclusive; and senior stock, boys from nine years up to and including 15 years of age. ÜBAC Division The Quarter Midget clubs are a division of USAC, the United States Auto club, and have vey strict rules and regulations to insure very safely-conducted races. The new quarter midget driver must be passed on by the safety committee before he is allowed to compete. Drivers must also be passed on by the safety committee before moving up to any

other class. All drivers are required to wear goggles and crash helmets at all times when driving on a track, and the helmets and goggles must be approyed by the safety committee. Drivers must also wear gloves, and full length sleeves and pants. There are many other ruFes and regulations that have been laid down, which make the sport of racing the smaller cars one of the safest possible sports for young boys. ~~ Club Creed The general idea of the popular sport is contained in the QMA’s creed: “To create and maintain an interesting ond safe activity for boys and girls of any age so that they may enjoy a close relationship with their parents in a healthy outdoor sport. A'sport which requires skill and practice in handling a mechanical device; and which develops reflexes, alertness and coordination which will be of great value to them throughout their entire lives; and which develops in our younger generation the ideals of fairness, generosity and a sense of responsibility without envy of others.” The Robinsons were planning an having young Bobby run the car this season to show it off to prospective buyers, as the boy was thinking about retiring from competition. This is a long way from being a final decision, however, and chances are that '’Rapid Robert” will be on the tracks for many, many years to come. His father is hoping to have some races sponsored somewhere in Decatur when a suitable, paved and lighted parking lot is available. He is attempting to complete arrangements for a race to be held in Decatur, and should know in the next few weeks whether or not a track may be secured. If a track is found, quarter midget drivers from the vicinity would be brought in and Decatur’s lone representative will have a chance to show his “stuff" in front of the hometown crowd.

Ziners Return From Northwest Vacation - Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Ziner returned to Decatur recently after enjoying a 19-day vacation trip in the northwest section of the United States. The Ziner* made their headquarters in Everett, Wash. In addition to visiting relatives, the local couple visited the World’s Fair in Seattle; the Grand Coulee dam; Mt. Rainer; Victoria, British Columbia, Canada; and Olympia national park. Ziner went salmon fishing on the Pacific ocean with some cousins, and caught six salmon that averaged 6% lbs He also had the opportunity to ride a log train back into the forest near Everett, and come back with a load of timber. Ziner reported that the vehicle carries 150 gallons of water to pour on the brakes and keep them from burning up on the long, downhill ride. Everett, which is located on Puget Sound about 30 miles from Seattle, is the home of a Scott Paper company pulp mill, and the Ziners toured that as well as the Warehouser plywood mills. While on the trip to Victoria, 8.C., with the Frank Detters of Decatur, the four local people happened to Meet Mr. and Mrs. Robert Holthouse and family, and Dr. and Mrs. Richard Parrish and family.
