Local Lions Sponsoring Essay Contest For Youths
The youth of the Greencastle community have been given a challenge to develop a plan for world peace by their local Lions Club—a challenge that could earn one of them a $25,000 educational and/or career assistance grant. The Greencastle Lions Club, together with Lions Clubs throughout the world, is sponsoring a world-wide essay contest for the world’s youth on
| the most important world subject today—Peace. The contest offers $50,000 in total awards, including the $25,000 first prize, eight semi-final world regional awards of $1,000 each. “We are hopeful one of our young people will win the world-wide prestige award,’’ President Charles McCullough of the Greencastle Lions Club said in announcing the contest locally. The contest, open to
Viet War News Picture Blurred WASHINGTON UPI — The Pentagon’s information chief told Congress Wednesday that newsmen covering the Vietnamese war transmit such a mass of material daily that “the big picture frequently is blurred.” Newspapers, television and radio cover in great detail actions which “would have rated only a paragraph in World War II or during the Korean War,” Assistant Defense Secretary Arthur Sylvester testified to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Calling the war the “most intensely covered conflict in history,” Sylvester said that newsmen obviously must be helped by the government if they are to report accurately and objectively — “and they are the first to say it.” Under critical questioning by Chairman J. William Fulbright, D-Ark., Sylvester denied that he had ever said the government has a “right to lie,” a comment attributed to him several years ago. "No government Information program can be based on lies,” the 64-year-old ex-newsman said. “But when lives of our people are at stake, you don’t tell the enemy everything you know right away.” Sylvester also rejected as "baseless” allegations that £ewsmen in Viet Nam who torite unfavorably about the |$.S. efforts are restricted in
their travel. He said only two newsmen have had their credentials suspended, for 30 days each, and that was for violation of security restrictions. The Pentagon press chief cited first-hand accounts of the U.S. forces napalm-bombed by their own planes as an example of the freedom newsmen are given.
Antique Autos To Be Displayed AUBURN, UPI—About 75 antique autos will be paraded and displayed here this weekend in the 11th annual Aubum-Cord-Dusenberg reunion. The cars, dating back to the 1920s, will participate in a parade through the city’s business district past the factory where they were assembled two generations ago. Among the cars on display will be a Duesenberg J. 1929 model, made in Indianapolis but finished in Japan and Germany. Owned by Ray Wolff, Wauwatosa, Wis., it is believed to be the only one of its kind in existence. Another was expected from the Harrah collection of about 1,200 old cars at Reno, a 1927 Duesenberg X, one of only 14 manufactured of which five are believed to have survived. Competition will be keen for prizes to be presented at an awards banquet Sunday. A cookout will be held Sunday in the city park.
j young people who will be 14 ! but less than 22 years of age as of January 15, 1967, was announced by the President of Lions International, Edward M. Lindsey, during the annual convention in New York. The Peace Essay Contest is divided into eight world divisions for the $1,000 prizes. “Our Club's winner will advance to Lions District 25C competition in his (her) effort to qualify for the multiple district contest,” Mr. McCullough said. The Contest is sponsored by more than 20,000 Lions Clubs in more than 130 countries in the free world, and its purpose is to develop a formula for world peace, and to alert our youth to the need for world peace and focus attention on that important goal. Contestants should submit their entry in essay form, not to exceed 5,000 words. Judging will fall into four categories:: 75 per cent of the essay’s points will be devoted to content, ten per cent to organization, ten per cent to style and five per cent to mechanics. Three judges will be appointed to evaluate the entries submitted to the club. “If our winner can advance through the judging stages up to the world finals he will receive an expense paid trip to Chicago to attend the Lions International 50th Annual Convention for the final judging of his essay in addition to the $1,000 award,” Mr. McCullough said. It is hoped local young people will accept the challenge and enter the local club’s section of the contest. Closing date is December 10, 1966. Students wishing to enter the contest should contact Lion Paul D. Lehe, R. 2, Greencastle, telephone OLiver 3-4380, to get full details of the contest. The age limit for the contest includes all youth 14 but less than 22 years of age as of January 15, 1967. Any young person living in the area covered by the Greencastle Community School Corporation is eligible to enter the contest.
Another Yank Air Ace Missing SAIGON UPI — Air Force
Capt. Normal L. Wells, one of captured U.S. hero James Kasler’s best friends and a fellow F105 fighter pilot, has been shot down over North Viet Nam, it was learned Wednesday.
WeLs’ fate was unknown. Wells, a 33-year-old native of
Unionville, Va., who earlier had gained his own measure of fame in this war by helping to 1
ae&ve ft psl Iran possible death quiet-mannered man who dis-
in the air, was on a mission over North Viet Nam’s pockmarked panhandle last Monday when his F105 Thunderchief was
hit by ground fire.
Wells went down exactly three weeks after Kasler, the Air Force major alongside whom he had flown time and time again, was shot from the skies over Communist territory. North Viet Nam officials said Kasler, who had been described as America’s “hottest fighter
pilot,” was captured.
What happened to Wells,
tinguished himself with a brush mustache and a flying ability nearly the match of Kasler’s, was much less certain. The Defense Department In Washington would say only that Wells was “missing in action.” U.S. officials declined to reveal his home town or past flying record, or to say when or where he went down.

Solon Doing Fine WASHINGTON UPI — Sen. Carl T. Hayden, D-Ariz., 88-year-old dean of the Senate, was reported recovering satisfactorily today from surgery performed to help relieve an infection of the urinary tract. Navy Capt. William E. Fraser, who performed the operation at
Bethesda Naval Medical Center Wednesday, reported afterward, “It went beautifully and everything is fine. His pressure remained constant and his heart strong.”
