Single copies. 7 cents l ; About Our Youth People sometimes have the bad habit of drawing conclusions from isolated incidents — conclusions that i are not true, and do considerable harm in their repetition. For example, when one young person, or two, or three, do something wrong, some will jump to the conclusion that “something is wrong” with all our chilren. Certainly if there is evidence of widespread wrongdoing, it should not be glossed over, or covered up with superlatives. But, as the front page of this newspaper attests day after day, most of our youth are conscientiously trying to be good citizens. Today we received a letter of which we are very proud. It reads as follows: “About three weeks ago my 90-year-old mother went to the door to pay the paper boy. When ’she let go of her walker with one hand, she fell. He came in, and between the two of them, she managed to get straightened oift and up and going again. “Last week she was in bed and “knew” that was the Democrat boy ringing the bell — so she somehow got to the door. She sent him to her room for her slippers and walker. And before he left, he said, “Can I do anything more?” “I don’t think there’s much of anything wrong . with the new generation.” (Signed) Mrs. Carl Smith No, there certainly isn’t anything wrong with the generation.. Os course, we wish ALL our newspaper boys were as courteous, well-mannered and well-behaved as this one fine boy. Usually they are, but like young people everywhere, they make mistakes. Most correct them the first time, and never make the same mistake again. They become better citizens for having corrected themselves. Every young boy and girl can’t be an outstanding scholar, or speaker, or athlete, or beauty. But every one can be kind, courteous, and helpful. In a civiliza- - tion which talks brotherly love, but acts sometimes quite differently, it is quite a blessing to have those who will take the time to help others. We are very happy to emphasize the good things that people do, when we know about them. Readers • should understand that bad events make news because they are unusual, not because they are typical. This is the kind of a “news” item we like to have — young Uian several generations removed helping an elderly lady, not because he has to, but because he wants to, because he sees that it should be done. Decatur has every right to be proud of Jack Baxter, who reflects great credit on his city, his school, and his family, Mr. and Mrs. Carl Baxter.

Seek New Leads In Death Os Actress HOLLYWOOD (UPD—Detectives, puzzled that Karyn Kupcinet would write death threats to herself, today looked for new leads in the strangling death of the beautiful actress. Investigators proved Wednesday that at least one of seven threats pasted together with tape from words clipped out of magazines and newspapers was put together by Miss Kupcinet. The partially incoherent messages were to both the starlet and her former steady boyfriend, television actor Andrew Prine of the “Wide Country” series. He turned over the seven messages he received several months ago to Lt. George Walsh, of the sheriff's department. “Our identification section personnel s.aid they have positive identification >of a fingerprint on the bottom side of the scotch tape used on one of the words and the note, as the right middle finger of Karyn Kupcinet,” Walsh said. “She at least made up the one note.” He said a number of magazines were found in the actress’ apartment which had words clipped from them. He said he had no idea what her motive may have been other ■ than hope the messages may have kept Prine from breaking off their romance. . Miss Kupcinet. daughter of Chicago newspaper columnist Iry Kupcinet, was found dead in her apartment last Saturday by friends who had become worried when they did not hear from her. She had apparently been dead since Thursday morning, the coroner’s office reported. — — M1... I*.ll, , -- — . - :— —z—; __ «. .. . . .

Auction Today For Grand Champ Steer CHICAGO (UPD—Today was the “Real McCoy” for the grand champion Hereford senior calf of that name when he hoofed onto an auction block in a prelude to the slaughter house at the 64th annual International Live Stock Exposition. The 950 - pound white - faced animal, pride 6f the John Min*ish family of Clio, lowa, won the dubious auction block honor by being named grand champion steer at the exposition Monday. Last year’s grand champ, “Top of lowa,” a 1,095-pound Angus, brought $5.75 per pound for its owner, Lyle Miller, Osage, lowa, The highest price ever paid at the traditional auction of the champion steer was S3O a pound, paid by Arthur Godfrey in 1957 for “Honeymoon,” a ’Hereford shown by Mrs. Sue Secondino of West Terre Haute, -Ind. ■ — "Real McCoy” won the biggest prize of livestock over a junior yearling Angus exhibited by Ronald Strawson, 17, Wilmington, 111.

Swift paid sl6 for each of Cyclone’s 235 pounds, to be processed for the Jewel Tea Co., Chicago. Cyclone’s total price was $137.50 less than the price paid for the grand champion crossbred barrow shown last year by Roy Keppy of Davenport, lowa, and well short of the all-time high price of $4,692 given to Colleen Rae Callahan, Milford, 111., for her 1960 grand champion Hampshire barrow.

Illinois Store Is Ripped By Explosion LOUISVILLE, 111. (UPD- An explosion ripped through a hardware store owned by a leader of opposition against missing anti - Communist sect chieftain John R. (Johnny Bob) Harrell today. Several adjoining buildings were jiamaged. The blast, which occurred at 3:31 a.m., was heard as far teway as Clay City, 111., 15 miles irom here. Police said about 60 windows were shattered in buildings fronting on the normally peaceful town square. Light fixtures were torn from the ceilings of some stores and a steel girder was knocked loose in one building. The explosion occurred in the front of a hardware store owned by James Morgan, an exMarine who has led local opposition to Harrell’s Christian Conservative Church. Louisville , police roped off five buildings adjoining the hardware store moments after the blast. A state bomb squad 4 was reported investigating. Harrell, a missing mausoleum tycoon, maintains a vast estate patterned after George Washington’s Mount Vernon only five blocks from the town square. He disappeared from sight with his wife and five of their children last April, days before he was to meet with Internal Revenue Service agents. He was. reported, to be carrying. $20,000 when he disappeared. Little more than two weeks ago, 11 of Harrell’s followers were convicted on charges of harboring a young AWOL Marine. Federal and state authorities riaded the 100-acre estate with halftracks and drawn rifles to capture the ex-Marine in August of 1961. House Passes New Subsidy Measure WASHINGTON (UPI (-President Johnson’s new administration claimed its first House victory today with passage of a new subsidy bill designed to increase cotton sajes by giving U.S - textile mills a -better break on raw cotton prices. The < bill provides a subsidy to cotton handlers, enabling them to buy from farmers at the relatively high federal support price and re-sell to domestic mills at lower prices. The measure also would cut the farm support level, but with an added feature granting a support “bonus” to small farmers.. The bill now goes to the Senate where no hearings were planned immediately and no action likely until early next year.
