Mr. Jennets Libel Suit Do- you suppose that someone could be covering up something? - ' During the pre-conventi.on campaign in 1946, The Indianapolis Star said some rather harsh things about William Jenner, who aspired to be the Republican candidate for United States Senator from Indiana. v ' Mr. Jenner, in a fit of high indignation, sued The Star for libel. He said that The Star printed some remarks that an opponent of his made with malice and intention to injure Mr. Jenner's reputation. At the time, The Star stuck by its guns and refused to retract what i,t had said about the Republican. '- But, the suit never came to trial. Last week, Mr. Jenner withdrew his suit. He says now 'that he was not libeled by The Star. Of course, he did not come cut and say that, but in withdrawing the suit he technically admits that The Star was right. The Star, striving to be a good fellow, used a front page editorial which states, in effect, "we never done it." The law suit resulted from a series of articles used by The Star in which the "beer-liquor-politics" setup within the Republican party was aired. ' : Indiana voters may have been wronged in the dismissal of the suit. Perhaps they are entitled to know whether The Star was right in the charges the newspaper made. An influential newspaper and an important post in the ivovernment were involved in some rather harsh statements. Perhaps the voter should know if The Star was right. Brisk, We Presume? v Sometimes it takes our breath away !' Imagine the impact on yesterday's hardy explorers of a casual news report that the latest flight of a B-29 over the North Pole is expected to inaugurate "routine weather reports from the top' of the world." : ... It's that "routine" that gets us. Routine implies a rut, and ouvuts will now extend Over the North Pole, it appears. In time they may extend to. the moon, the plonets, the con

stellations: Already men can weigh the stars more easily than they can sometimes weigh the. consequences of their acts. , fi ihi ,txoi?attoT-ef ,' iTie-vphysical universe adventure often opens the way for tedium. What people need is that mental adventurousness that plunges beyond material - rou- . tine and accepted modes of thought to Jthe vivid, unfolding values of the spirit. ; That's one way to get "on top of the world" without getting into. a rut.

Sir, ; . ' - .' In times like these," when ordinarily stable, heads and hearts whirl with what might be termed "righteous" and "moral" indignation, it might ba fruitful to listen to the voice of one 'removed from, the scene 1 of contemporary passions: John Stuart Mill, writing On Liberty: - "If all mankind - minus one,

were of one opinion, and . only ; one person were of the contrary ' opinion, mankind would be no

more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had' the power, would be justified- in.

silencing ' mankind' ' If: the opinion is right, they are deprived of the 'opportunity of ex

changing error for truth; if i

wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its

collision with error . , We can never be sure that the opinion we. are endeavoring to stifle is a

false' opinion and if we , were sure, stifling it would be an evil stiii." . ' .. i N.o, no, friends, don't just sit' there and nod and admit .that you're; in the awful presence of a great truth; apply it! to the contemporary scene, especially where it concerns Communists and other dissenters.

YOUNG falter of Gurnie was broad of shoulder and stout of heart- but he knew there was no rightful place ; for him in the .England of 1273. When his father, Rauf, ' Earl of Lessford, was found dead with a poacher's arrow, through his heart,- the vast estates of. Bulaire went to -Walter's hall-brother, Edmond, the legitimate heir. Walter left his studies at Oxford to claim his paltry share a silver cup and a pair of fine leather boots.

She vyas off immediately, her horse in a full gallop .... . " It was then that Walter made tip his mind. At Oxford he had listened to the lectures of the great Friar Roger Bacon who told what little was kndwn of the fabled land of Cathay. "I am going there," he told ,his friend, Tristram GriiTen.

"Your father left this here for you years ago,"' he explained. It was enough to start them on their journey. ' . j That night, Walter sought the dark rooms of Friar Bacon. .
