‘Freedom’
Prize-Winning Student Tells What It Means
Freedom is something we in America take for granted. Miss Margie Gootee, 17, a senior at Sacred Heart High
School, crystalized the meaning of freedom in this prize-
winning essay for the Voice of Democracy contest. Part of a nation-wide competition, the Marion County phase was spongored by the Junior Chamber of Commerce. She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Gootee, 2117 W. Morgan St. Her essay follows:
By MARGIE GOOTEE AM the spirit of freedom. To some people I am
confined in a dark, cold grave, never apparently to be opened again. These people knew me one day and
cherished my friendship like any other friendship. It wasn't until I was withdrawn,-by force, from their presence that they realized ours was the most necessary friendship they had for happiness.
The people of Poland are a good example of those who knew me and miss me now. Not many Americans know that until September, 1939, Poland too, had a president.
was when qur friendship was at its peak. I often wonder, will’ the people of Poland ever know me
again.
THEN THERE are those to whom I am completely unknown. I stand looking longingly in their direction, but when they turn to speak there are those among them who rebuke them for it. To some people, like the Filipinos, whom I met through the United States, I am a new friend. But our friendship is growing, and I think they like
me considerably. You see they.
know what it is to be without me for a friend.
” " = I HAVE many friends, and I am making more .as the years go by but I haven't told you of my closest, dearest friend yet. I have known the United States, you might say, ever since she was born, and we have grown up together. We have both learned a lot
on our journey through the.
years and have gained by each other's experiences. She has
* taught me the best ways to
put myself to use in a country, for she has me in every word of her constitution. Many would-be friends have tried to force me into various laws and documents but she willingly planted me in the law of her land and even fought those who opposed me. I used to feel sad about the Civil War because I had started it, but through the years I have decided it was for the best.
” = » I HAVE taught her many things, too, freedom of speech, freedom of the press and freedom of religion. Her love for me taught her to wake up to the enemies and evils of herself. I have been introduced to every oné of her children and have taught her to guide them in a way in which they too will share her love fo e. Yes, in my cause many a man’s life has been lost, and
-.I.do feel badly about it. I also.
feel proud: to think that there
are people who will fight and
die to retain my friendship
and others who will fight and .
die to know me. I have told you of my friends, and hardly have I mentioned my enemies. Oh ves, 1 have many of them.

NEW YORK, Nov. 19 (UP)! {Sunday)-—Five unions represent-| ing 25000 actors and artists called the first nation-wide tele-| vision: strike for today.
Television Authority, agent of
the five unions, said the strike
would leave three TV networks
and one New York station dependnt on old movies or forums for, i
program material.
Federal mediators made an 11th |
our attempt long into the night
to get all parties together but had failed in the early morning hours.
At 1:25 a. m. Indianapolis
Time, Commissioner J. R. Man-
elbaum announced the comanies affected had agreed to
1eet again with union representatives. No time was set. »
Plan to Operate The strike was called against

But the stop work order would:

The four firms said that they
had offered to give actors, singers ‘and dancers a minimum of $70 for a 15-minute program, $125 for a 30-minute program and $175 for an hour program.
