Letter To The Editor

Letter to Editor: This week I've been watching; for some sort of review of ••Come Blow Your Horn,” but so far have been disappointed. Now I am no drama critic, but I do enjoy a change from TV, 1 and I did enjoy "Come BlowYour Horn.” This is a family comedy about a couple of brothers trying to shed the

A Local Teenager's View Janet Staub “Ain't this a fun summer” said Sara Schoolgoer to Scott Schoolgoer. It seems that when school is out some students forget that they do have to attend school in the fall. Sleeping habits are unheard of. Poor TV shows are viewed, English slips, and the once good reading habits seem to be forgotten. Most English teachers have lists of books which are required for College. This same list is in the library too. Most of the books on the list are very good reading and not the usual run-of-the-mill sort of reading which is sometimes the only kind some students do read during the good old summertime. As for television, it is usually considered a big waste of time during the summer because of the re-runs. But usually once or twice a week one of the feature length movies ia very worth while to view. If the students wouldn’t fall into bad habits during the summertime, they (and me, too) won’t have to change in the fall to the gooder ones!

Sheinwold On Bridge Western Expert Moves To North

By ALFRED SHEINWOLD Thirty years ago the best bridge player in the West waa a slip of a girl named Helen White. After marriage and a trip to New York, the Western star became famous as Helen Sobel, the world's best woman player (and at least the equal of any man). With her recent marriage to Stanley Smith, a Detroit accountant, tournament buffs hope the fair Helen will return to showing the rest of the world how to get the most out of 52 cards.

I guess what I'm getting at Is that if we want our community to bring us the best, we've got to support its efforts. Indianapolis’ Starlight Musicals and its Avondale Theatre were community projects that would have failed (and nearly did!) without the support of the people. But too many of us think that while the Playhouse is a good idea, it doesn't involve us personally. My husband and I were in that category till we saw how few persons were in the audience to enjoy “Come Blow Your Horn” along with us. We realized that if we wanted the Playhouse to succeed, we d better do more than just applaud. If we were to become patrons or members (we did today) and tell folks how much we enjoyed the first play of this season (I’m doing that now), then the Playhouse would be ours in a sense and its success

or failure would involve us. And Births:

I'll wager that if you buy a ticket and enjoy this play as much as we did. you'll find yourselves becoming involved

too!

Today’s hand shows the defensive skill of the then Helen Sobel. As West, Mrs. S. (this solves the problem of which name to use) led the king of diamonds and continued with the ace. Since East's high-low signal made it clear that South held the last diamond, Mrs. S. continued with the jack of diamonds. If dummy ruffed with a high trump, West would get a trump trick. South was afraid to ruff with a high trump (although he might have made his contract if he had done so) and saw no advantage in ruffing low and letting East over-ruff. Instead, he discarded a club from dummy. hoping to limit his club loss to two tricks. TAKES CLUBS East discarded the seven of clubs to show his strength, and Mr. S. held the trick with the jack of diamonds. Now it was important to grab two club tricks before doing anything else, so Mrs. S. led the nine of clubs to the king and won the club return with the ace.

President Faces Nuclear Problem WASHINGTON UPI — President Johnson, faced with conflicting advice from top aides, apparently has not yet decided on the best strategy for promoting a treaty to halt the further spread of nuclear weapons. Officials acknowledged today that there is a controversy within the administration as to whether chances for such a treaty would be improved if the United States abandoned its support for a NATO nuclear force. Russia has said that creation of a multi-manned Atlantic nuclear force would render such a treaty worthless, since it would give West Germany and other European Allies of the United States some control over nuclear weapons. j Officials said the dilemma posed by Russia's position was dealt with in a secrecy-shrouded report made to Johnson last January by a special presidenI tial panel headed by former Dep- ! uty Defense Secretary Roswell | L. Gilpatric. No Confirmation They refused, however, to confirm or deny reports that the panel recommended that the “non - proliferation” treaty be given priority over current efforts to establish some form of co-operativs NATO nuclear force. Whatever the panel's recommendation, the issue is very much alive and the administration is divided on the subject. Secretary of State Dean Rusk was understood to be firmly maintaining his previous position that plans for the MultiLateral Nuclear Force should go forward. He has frequently said that once Russia understands the nature of the proposed force, in which the United States would retain a veto over actual firing of any of the nuclear weapons, the Kremlin will realize that the project is acceptable. Test Sincerity Other officials, including some in the Disarmament Agency and Defense Department, are said to feel that it would be worthwhile setting aside the multi-lateral NATO force idea for a time to test Russia’s sincerity. If Moscow still declined to discuss the proposal for measures to stop further spread of nuclear weapons and knowhow, then the NATO project could be revived. Russia and the United States both have expressed a desire for a treaty prohibiting dissemination or acquisition of atomic weapons. They would like to find some way to get Red China and France, the only countries with nuclear weapons refusing Continued on page 7

Denton Votes For Nat. Monument WASHINGTON UPI—Rep. Winfield K. Denton. D-Ind., in- | troduced a bill Thursday to make the George Rogers Clark Memorial at Vincennes, Ind., a national monument. The memorial was built on the banks of the Wabash River in the 1930s as a joint endeavor of the federal, state and local governments. The city of Vincennes provided the land while Congress appropriated $1.5 million for the design and construction. Indiana contributed $200,000 toward construction costs and assumed responsibility for maintenance and control. A 1935 Indiana law authorizes the governor to offer the memorial to the federal government and Gov. Roger Branigin has indicated he will do so if the National Park Service approves it as a national monument. Denton said Thursday that Clark’s capture of Vincennes in the only Revolutionary War battle fought west of the Allegheny Mountains was of sufficient historical importance to justify national recognition. “If Vincennes had not been

taken by George Rogers Clark, the British would undoubtedly laid claim to all the territory west of the Alleghenies as they claimed and held Canada," he said, “and the United States would have remained 13 small colonies along the eastern seaboard.”
