The Ltoni Chib ranks is the m intanational service dub, its record awash in food works worldwide. Its high principles and devotion are found intact with the Crooked Creek Lions Chib of Indianapolis, just as. illustrious and devoted as the organisation in general. “None of our funds are ever squandered on sochd activities or fun per se,” says spokesperson A1 Ferguson. “We’re here to do a job helping others and we try our best.” Along this line Crooked Creek has made substantial contributions to the Eye Bank, eye cancer research. Wood smoke Camp for the Handicapped, Seeing Eye Dog Program, food baskets for the poor at Chrittmas, support of various athletic programs and other worthy causes too numerous to mention. Now the men are undertaking a project that will benefit substantially someone with serious sight problems. Members are looking for a Mack person with seriously impaired vision who will qualify for the Seeing Eye Program. This parson must be physically aMe to travel since special training is in Battle Creek, Mich. Also, according to Ferguson, old eye glasses are secured by the Lions and issued to those who are unable to purchase them. Anyone knowing someone who might qualify for the Seeing Eye Program or anyone or organization willing to donate discarded glasses is urged to contact Lion La Von Kemp, 3149 Arsenal Avenue, (317) 925-0732. Crooked Creek Lions meet at Universal United Methodist Church, 5959 Grandview.

Not long ago. people, both black and white, bled and even died so that Black people could exercise the right to vote. Were those sacrifices In vain? By not voting. we have no effect on the power structure, and are virtually making ourselves an invisible entity. Ibo often we are looked upon as a nuisance. One that does not understand the power of the vote. Does a batter hit a home run by “choking up" and punching at the ball? No. He takes a full swing, with power. And the power of Black America Is in the quantity of registered voters. And that power is most effective when it Is distributed properly. On too many occasions. our vdting power Is “weighted” to one side. The Democratic party takes our vote for granted. In our political strategy for the 80b. our vote should gain respect from both the Democratic and Republican parties. We cannot achieve this goal through protest voting. A vote for a "lost cause" Is a vote for our opponents. If more Black voters would register as Republicans, both parties would Include Black people In their political strategies. Thus, Improving our voting power. Remember, just because you voted In the Democratic primary, doesn’t mean you cannot vote for the other party In November.
