Mary’s Catholic Civics Club Active

“Too many people think that governing our country means Washington. D. C., the White House, the halls of congress, and the supreme court. The glamour and excitement of national and even state affairs command their attention. Too often they overlook ] or ignore the functioning of their own local government. And yet it is right in their own community that government begins. If these foundation stones, units of local government. are weak, the whole structure of the nation is weakened.” The above fs an excerpt from the directives sent out by the commission on American citizenship to all Catholic Civics clubs of America for the current scholastic year. “Build better local government” is the national theme. Through this program. Civics clubbers of America are to learn how the various units and departments carry out their duties and thereby gain a better understanding of the problems facing their local government. Meet Birch Bayh Mary’s Catholic Civics club of the St. Joseph school lost no time getting started with its 1962-63 activities. Sept. 8, 30 clubbers answered a call to meet Birch Bayh, Democratic candidate for U. S. Senate from Indiana, who spoke from the courthouse lawn. Mrs. Ed Heimann, Mrs. Don Heimann and Henry B. Braun, the chaperons, also attended. Bayh, addressing the club delegates, said, “every school should have a Civics club such as yours.” All delegates reported on the information gained at the next club meeting. Ten days later, nine other delegates attended a city council meeting to gain first hand information on its personnel and functions. Many questions were directed to Mayor Donald Gage at the special interview following the meeting. The thorough and clarifying answers were relayed to the other club members who were not privileged to attend. Folowing this experience, Barbara Schultz, president, directed Nancy Ehinger and Barbara Grove

American Military Adviser Wounded SAIGON (UPI)—A U.S. spokesman disclosed t oday t hat an American military adviser was wounded last Tuesday by a Viet Cong booby trap. He said the adviser was standing near a South Vietnamese soldier who' was pulling down a' Communist Viet Cong propaganda banner from a pole. The booby trap was in the pole. It was triggered when the banner was ripped down and s hrapnel struck the American in the legs. No other details were available. Informed U.S. military sources said that some of the U.S. Army’s new, heavily armed hula helicop- : tors have been used in operations against Communist gu erri 11 a forces with devastating effect. The sources said four of the new helicopters, each armed with two machine guns and 16 rockets, laid down a withering cover fire on Viet Cong sniper positions last Tuesday during the withdrawal of government paratroops in the massive “Operation Morn ing Star” in Tay Ninh. According to the sources, pilots reported that about 20 Viet Cong were killed. This was not confirmed officially. There has been no official announcement by American or South Vietnamese | authorities on Viet Cong casualties for that day. A U.S. spokesman today denied ! press reports that a third American plane crashed in the central highlands of South Viet Nam last Tuesday. A light observation plane crashed in the area, killing all three Americans aboard, and a U.S. Air Force T2B fighter-bom-ber was shot down while flying protective cover over the wreckage. But the s pokesman said n o other U.S. aircraft has crashed since. If you have something to sell oi trade — use the Democrat Want ad* — they get BIG results

THE DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA

to write to the Democratic and; Republican headquarters and offer services of the clubbers at their headquarters. History of Campaign To learn a bit of local history, Sharon O'Shaughnessey and Rosemary Clark interviewed Dick Heller, Jr., publisher of the DecaturDaily Democrat, Sept. 24, to find out from the paper files the actual history of a community campaign for the building of Adams Central school; how public opinion was secured for the project, which civic group first prompted the idea, who fought it and how the newspaper handled it. The girls learned that Peter B. Lehman, now a retired dairy farmer in Washington township, conceived the idea of a consolidated school in Monroe. In general, people in Berne and Decatur were “against” it because they were interested in seeing that Monroe township went to Berne school, and Washington township to Decatur schools. The Daily Democrat supported the consolidation as a principle because the editor, at that time, felt that a consolidated district would provide better i education at a more uniform cost than the system then in use. Some people also opposed because they thought the new school district would raise their tEixes, and they did not have any children who would be going to the new school. The groups opposed fought long and hard, and instituted several suits against the school. The girls noted that no specific civic group worked for or against the project. Publish Club Paper The club also decided to publish a club newspaper, entitled “Civics j Club Report.” Sharon O’ Shaugh-, nessey is the editor and Babara Grove the co-editor. Issue No. 1 was published the first week in October and will be a regular monthly project. Other members of the staff are Mike Wolpert, Tom Vian, Don Lengerich, Dave Alberding, Marta Faurote, Joan Baker, Mary Lengerich, Mary Lichtle, Barbara Schultz, Virginia Brenda Cochran, Mary Ann Zintsmaster, Nancy Heimann, Dorothy Coyne, Charlotte and Darlene Hurst.
