We hear a lot today about the rebellious youth, and how our young peoplel are rejecting society’s present values. A wide range of studies, especially here in small-town Indiana, show that this is not true. The so-called “rebellion” that we hear so much about is mistermed. What youth want to know, and what they argue with their parents over, concerns the time at which adult status privileges should be accorded to teenagers — and the younger set. Television, which substitutes in many Decatur homes for Grandma as a baby-sitter (Grandma has a job today!) leads the very young to adopt the patterns of older youth. If parents turn to the “switch” a little earlier — the switch on the TV set so junior can get his lessons, the switch on the car, so junior is home more in the evenings, and the switch on the electric light, so that junior gets the 10 hours that younger children should get — then the desire for adult privileges long before the ability to handle adult privileges has matured will be materially decreased. After all, if our young people in grade school and junior high see women with makeup, high heels, lipstick, and all the other appendages of the modem native, why wouldn’t they desire the same? And with parents earning enough to try to give their children their slightest desire, naturally they encourage them to grow up. The major problem, according to research, is not the difference in values between youth and their parents, but the difference in family backgrounds between the youth themselves. Which children are having trouble? The first ones are those whose parents make their children lower class. Yes, I said make their children lower class. Because the lowest paid workers, the family with almost no income, can help themselves and change their values so that their children have a chance. But all too often the child from a second-class home becomes a second-class student, and finally strays so far from the school as to drop out, because he s “getting nothing out of it.” Sometimes he draws children from first-class homes with him — homes where the parents have tried to help their children learn both knowledge and discipline. And so we as a community are challenged — to change the value of some of our teenagers, and make 5 their stay in school productive. A disgruntled youth makes a dangerous adult — like Lee Harvey Oswalt, or worse. Editorial written by Pich Heller

Easter Egg Tree at Decatur Library
The Easter Egg tree at the Decatur public library is shown in the above photo. The first tree bloomed in 1951 with 200 eggs, and was made by Miss Bertha Heller, librarian. Miss Heller was inspired by the Caldecott award winning book, “The Egg Tree,” by Kathrine Milhous. Miss Milhous wrote the book after seeing egg trees in what is commonly known as the Pennsylvania-Dutch area of this country. There are now 1600 eggs to decorate the local tree and fifty er se> are each year. Tfeey are painted and decorated by hand by children and adults. Most of them depict outstanding children’s books. Christ and the Easter Returns To School With Untamed Hair NEW IBERIA, La. (UPI) — A high school boy was cleared to return to classes today, his untamed hair still in wiry wings, but hiis father faced sentencing for hitting the school principal. George Mouton was found guilty Monday of simple battery for hitting New Iberia high school principal John McGraw. They quarrelled after Mouton’s son, Glen, was sent home from classes because his hair stuck stiffly out at the sides. The school has a regulation requiring students’to have “normal” haircuts. The school called the haircut “wings.” They are forbidden. Glen's father called them "cowlicks.” They can’t be helped. “My boy wears a crewcut and his hair was not more than an inch long when he was sent home,” the service station operator said. He said the wings were the fault of nature, not adolescent hair fads. He said he would decide whether to appeal the guilty' verdict alter hearing sentence passed . today. “Glens going back to classes,"” said Mouton. "His hair? No.h nothing s been done to his hair. Nothing can .be done, lhey ac-g cept that now.” ■ ■
story, and there is one egg for each of the presidents of the United States. Many of the eggs are decorated on the inside of the shell as each of them is hollow. Decorated eggs have been received from many of the states and several foreign countries. Kathrine Milhous has contributed a decorated egg: and the well known author, Lillian Budd, has given three decorated eggs, each representing one of her books. Miss Heller also collects antique hand painted glass eggs. These were popular as Easter gifts in the late 19th century. Many groups and individuals come to see the tree from the surrounding area.

— Photo by Cole especially popular with the school children and Miss Heller reports men are just as fascinated by the display as women. The tree went on display this year the 18th day of March and will remain on display at the Decatur public library until April 4. TTiere are actually two trees, one on the ground floor and one on the second, or children’s floor. Each year Virgil “Pete” Krick selects two thorn trees, and the Krick-Tyndall company furnishes manpower to cut the trees and spray them with white paint. The public is invited to stop in and view this lovely Easter display. Patrol Boat Rescues Florida Fisherman DAYTONA BEACH, Fla., (UPD — A local fisherman was recuperating today from a twoday ordeal of bailing his sinking boat and gradually growing weaker. Ralph Wetherell, 56, was spotted by a Coast Guard patrol craft early Monday shortly after his fishing boat went down 25 milse off the coast. A Navy helicopter attempted to pick him up, but he apparently was too weak to grasp a sling and a Cape Kennedy patrol boat made the rescue. Wetherell said he left here early Saturday for some “drift fishing” and his boat struck an unidentified object and started leaking. He told officials he had been bailing with a 10 gallon can up until the time the boat went down Monday.

Gov. Wallace Plans To File In Indiana INDIANAPOLIS (UPD - Segregationist Gov. George C. Wallace of Alabama said Monday night he will fly here Thursday and file papers entering his name in Indiana’s Democratic presidential preference primary. Wallace, campaigning in Wisconsin's presidential primary, confirmed his Intentions of submitting a petition which will put him in the race against Indiana Gov. Matthew E. Welsh on the last day of the filing period. The deadline for entering the May 5 primaries is Thursday midnight. Thus far, two candidates are officially entered, another was expected to enter today, and two or three more may come in before the deadline. Welsh is the only Democrat entered thus far, but Wallace and perennial candidate John Hugh Latham of Rockville planned to increase die field to three. Sfen. Barry Goldwater was the first Republican, filing Monday, but Indianapolis Negro attorney Frank Beckwith made it two this morning when he filed a petition he said contained 2,272 signatures, and former Minnesota Gov. Harold Stassen expects to make it three by filing Wednesday. Welsh filed as a “favorite son’ Monday in a move to keep the state’s 51 first-ballot votes at the national convention from going to Wallace by default. — By Indiana law, all of the state’s convention votes must go to the winner of the primary on the first ballot and, with President Johnson not entering any primaries, Wallace could have walked off with all the Hoosier votes without opposition. Wallace announced some time ago that he would enter the Indiana primary and nomination papers have been taken out by persons claiming to represent him. However, the required 500 signatures have not been filed so far but may be between now and die Thursday deadline. Welsh’s petition, filed Monday, contained more than 1,800 names, although state law requires only 500. It was filed a few hours after Goldwater supporters filed his petition with Secretary of State Charles Hendricks. Stassen will be in Indiana today for a speech to DePauw University students at Greencastle and his petition is expected to be completed during the visit. It probably will be filed Wednesday. e • Beckwith announced more than a month ago that he would enter the GOP primary, just as he did four years ago. Beckwith drew almost 20,000 votes against former vice president Richard M. Nixon at that time. New York Stock Exchange Price MIDDAY PRICES A.
