Concert Review By Mary Frances Strain What does one write about a concert that the Junior High students gave last night? I can’t tell you anything about it You had to be there to hear and feel to have enjoyed it. Some of you loyal parents, relatives, and friends were. More of you were not The time and harmony of the choir under Pete Hills’ direction was lovely. Z liked “O Soldier, Soldier” and ‘’Tamale Joe.” Miss Pauls Kracht effectively directed her orchestra through a variety of selections. The results were surprisingly professional. Student compositions by Scott Loring, Judy Dunn and Sally Ricketts added interest to the program. Peter Hill again took the baton to direct his Cadet Band. The numbers were simple and clarinets squeaked. This was expected, but the students were enthused about what they were doing. The Concert Band is large. They were so crowded that I marveled they could play at all. (I should have sat in the balcony for I didn’t get full benefit of it at all.) ’’Petite Suite” had five movements which gave opportunity to feature the different sections of the band. He proved there is some very fine ■talent and potential. ’’Black Jack” carried a true band tempo and must be one of their favorites. Mr. Hill promised the audience a Junior High Variety Show soon and an all Greencastle School Concert the first of May. Do try to attend one of them. Hours of practice, patience, sweat and fun are involved for our enjoyment and theirs.

A Local Teenager's View By Janet Stank With the new arrangement of the point system of the operator licenses’ many people are shuddering for they are much closer to losing that privilege than they thought. The law doesn’t go into effect until July 1 but because of the early announcement of it, traffic records may improve es drivers with no or few points try to keep it that way. Cars now have many safety features which people sometimes over look. Reports come in that many injuries are suffered tn cars with seat belts but the injured person wasn’t wearing it. Locks on doors if put to use may protect the occupants from being thrown from the car in case of accident or may protect them from possible attackers. One safety feature which does not come on autos and probably never will because it is supposed to some with the driver, is common sense. The ability to realize that the two ton (or about that) globe of metal which they can control may turn into a killer. Even if you have the right-a-way you can be just as dead or the atay in the hospital is just as long. As long as drivers don’t utilise the safety feature of common sense state officials will just have to keep making stiffer and stiffer regulations until someday only a very few people will be granted the privilege of operating a motor vehicle. By THE WAY—Now that spring sports are in how about supporting them as much as basketball was supported. CM Is Praised By Rep. Bray WASHINGTON UPI — Rep. William G. Bray, R-Ind., has expressed “confidence end high regard” for the Central Intelligence Agency. Bray spoke in defense of the CIA on the House fioor In support at a atmUar abatement by Rep. Mendel Rivers, D-S. C., ehahurn at e CIA subcommittee to the House Armed Services Committee. The subcommittee revealed testimony at Lassie Saabo, a Hungarian defector, on Communist operations which Bray said make it necessary to have a strong CIA. “If Americans were fully aware of the job being done by the CIA they would be very proud at it,” Bray said. Indiana Traffic Toll Hits 303 By United Preu International A jeep-truck collision early today killed a man and raised Indiana’s 1966 traffic fatality toll to at least 303 compared with 267 a year ago. Durwood Gibson, 28, R.R. 7, Valparaiso, was injured fatally when his jeep went out of control on U.S. 20 at the west edge of Porter and collided with a tractor-trailer driven by Harold R. Johnson, 33, Chicago. Police said Gibson, who had no use of his left arm, apparently lost control of the jeep. It went off the right side of the road, returned to the highway, crossed the centerline and struck the truck. The jeep overturned, pinning Gibson under it. Officers said Gibson recently was released from a hospital and his left arm was bound to his chest by a cast.
