Suicide In Adolescence
Maine Covered By 4 In. Snow By United Press International Snow piled more than four inches deep in Maine today. Strong winds and rain hit the northern Appalachians and a rainy cold front swept into the Pacific Northwest. April brought summerlike warfth to Florida and the Gulf Coast but most of the nation was cool. Thundershowers sprinkled the Southwestern Plains. Lowland showers and mountain snow fell from California to the central Rockies. Flooding rivers in Minnesota, Iowa and Wisconsin kept nearly 25.000 persons from their homes. A massive clean-up operation was under way from Wisconsin to Olyo in areas hit by Sundays tornadoes. The death toll stood at 239. Three persons were killed and three others injured Monday in a traffic accident blamed on dust storms near Red Hill, N3I. Snow fell through northern and central Maine from Monday aftemooff into this morning. Millincoeket in the state’s center reported four inches ear-
Dear Dr. Coleman: In the past year I have had an increasing urge to commit suicide. Lately I have been hoping that I will in some way be killed by passing cars, etc. I tried to stab myself in the side with a knife once but found out it takes more nerve than I thought Last year 43 teenage kids committed suicide in Ohio. For my parents' sake I do not want to be one. Please help me. —-P. M., Ohio. The pathetic Dr. Coleman anonymity of the initials cannot hide the heartbreak, the despair and the urgency of this plea for immediate help. Young adolescents, standing on the brink of self-destruction, have a single outstanding need. They virtually beg for someone to listen to them, hear their confidences, unravel their confusions and sympathetically guide them through their period of emotional turbulence. A recent survey in New Jersey slewed a remarkable coincidence in the number of adolescent suicides. The 41 children who committed suicide in New Jersey were still attending school. They were described as "having no close friends with whom to share confidences or from whom to receive psychological support." It was shown that “in each instance the suicide had given ample warning of his distress. The most obvious cry for help was the threat to commit suicide.’’ It is a distinct error to dismiss the danger of possible suicide with the notion that "people who talk about it don’t do it.” All suicide threats must be given the most serious consideration. Only in this way can lives be preserved. Another misconception is that a suicidal person is beyond help. This is utterly false. With immediate concentrated treatment these people can be returned

Q1 A There was a conspiracy to kill him before he got ^ to Washington in 1861. Numerous threats were made in the following four years..No real system of protecting him and his family was even considered. Throughout his presidency, Lincoln was aware the risk of the being assassinated was constant. He simply accepted as fact that the only way to guard against that effectively was to shut himself up in a cage, where he could not possibly perform the duties of president properly. He said, "Why put up the bars when the fence is down all around?” He responded to a caller who expressed concern over the president’s lack of protection, "I do not consider that I have ever accomplished anything without God; and if it is His will that I must die by the hand of an assassin. I must be resigned. 1 must do my duty as I see it, and
leave the rest with God.”
The morning of Friday, April 14, he told a visitor of a dream in the night that portended some sort of tragedy. That evening, he was shot in the head as he sat with Mrs. Lincoln viewing the play, "Our American Cousin,” at Ford’s Theatre. Carried across the street to a boardinghouse and the only bed downstairs, he lay nearly eight hours in a coma. More than a dozen persons trooped in and stood around while four physicians attended the patient Four physicians seldom agree on anything except indisputable evidence; they agreed the wound from a singleshot Deringer pistol, , fired two feet from the unguarded
president was mortal.
When he died a few minutes after 7 a.m. the 15th, Mrs. Lincoln was in the front room of the boardinghouse (on the sofa marked H). Her son stood at the head —— — ..i.. i of the president’s bed (figure 4). She re-
membered afterward that just before they went to the theater that night, he had said, "Mary, we have had a hard time of it since we came to Washington, but the war is over, and with God's blessings we may hope for four years of peace and happiness, and then we will go back to Illinois and pass the rest of our lives in quiet” —CLARK KENNAIRD

Hollywood HOLLYWOOD UPI —There Is instant stardom in the movies, and there is the laborious plod up the ladder. Fortunate is the ham who arrives full-scale. Yul Brynner, Marlon Brando, Elvis Presley, Ann - Margaret and others attained stardom overnight. From Broadway, a hit record, a socko television appearance, they make their movie debuts in starring roles. Fame is instantaneous, their salaries vulgarly enormous. Then there are the climbers, the actors who begin in bit parts, progress to feature roles and move up to second leads. Most fall victim early in the going. They remain bit players, occasionally move to feature i actors and rarely live the good life of solid second leads. Rare is the one who reaches the top . rung. One of the climbers is James Cobum, a lanky, hollow-cheeked j man you’ve seen scores of times in movies and television. But chances are you cannot conect the name with the face. He was a potent force in
‘ ine ureal Escape, lilt Americanization of Emily'' and ‘‘The Magnificent Seven.” In those he was a featured player. In “High Wind in Jamacia” and “Major Dundee” he graduated to supporting parts. Soon he will star in “Our Man Flint,” winning top billing over Lee J. Cobb. For Coburn the title role represents the highest rung. “I never thought about anything except reaching the top,” he said on the eve of his big break. “It never occurred to me to settle for less than leading roles.” Coburn’s style and approach to acting are all his own. And therein lies Coburn’s hope for a permanent spot at the top of the ladder. He’s dififerent. He’s effective. He’s also determined.
IT’S A STRETCH OF DESOLATION where the tornado swept through in Lebanon, Ind.
to normal, useful lives. There now exists in many areas of the country Suicide Prevention Centers, completely geared to the emergency needs of the emotionally disturbed. It has already been found that there is a tremendous decrease in suicide once the Center has been called and a sympathetic, trusting relationship established between the patient and the doctor. P. M., an obvious adolescent, already finds the burden of living too great to bear. What are the forces that made life intolerable for him? What are the forces that keep his family from understanding his needs and his desire for self-destruc-tion? Untrained parents may themselves be too confused to be triggered into action. It must be impressed on them that the threat of suicide is a symptom of severe emotional distress. If the symptom were a cough or abdominal pain it would certainly not go unnoticed by sympathetic parents. They dare not dismiss a suicide threat with any less responsibility. P. M. . . . How can we help you and other adolescents ? .. . What answer to the cry in the wilderness will assuage your inner fears and unhappiness? Speak out your problems. Speak them to your parents, a teacher, your doctor or your spiritual advisor. When you express your feelings you will find sympathetic ears, that you are not alone and that you are loved and wanted by many who surround you. They will give of their strength to help you find your oun inner resources and happiness. living can sometimes be an arduous task. But it is worth the effort. While Dr. Coleman cannot undertake to answer individual letters, he tciS use readers’ questions in his column when* ever possible and when they are of general interest.
