Mrs. Summerville Is DAR Guest Speaker Halloween was in the air at Mrs. John Poor’s Tuesday night as the members of Washburn Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution arrived for their monthly meeting. A large group attended in a spirit of pleased anticipation for Mrs. W. F. Summerville of Indianapolis was guest speaker. Mrs. Summerville is D.A.R. State Chairman of National Defense and her lively presentation appealing for greater citizen awareness of how the communists think and work was enthusiastically received. Hie speaker recounted how a generation of youngsters have grown up on progressive education with social studies taking precedence over solid basic information in history and geography. For quite sometime it has been considered unnecessary to teach loyalty to one’s country. The result is that many of our boys in Viet Nam are just now discovering what they are fighting for. They are just now discovering how great the United States of America really is. With bewildered sadness they wonder why so much time was spent on things that were Iqts of fun but really irrelevant. For instance, they learned well the lesson of international cooperation but nobody bothered to explain that cooperation cannot be unilateral. Mrs. Summerville reiterated the need for citizens to keep writing to their congressmen. The program was preceded by a rather long business meeting which was opened by the regent in the usual manner. In an account was given of Statg addition to the regular reports, Conference in Indianapolis Oc-; tober 4th and 5th. Washburn Chapter had six delegates attending and the meeting was especially significant because the President General was a special guest and spoke on two occasions. Other speakers of great interest were Michael Padev, foreign affairs editor of the Indianapolis Star, and Judge Obermiller of Whiting. Dele* gates were stirred with pride. in D.A.R. as an organization primarily concerned with preservation of our American Heritage. A pleasant social hour followed the program. Mrs. Poor was assisted by Mrs. Charles /Rector, Sr. and Miss Mary Frances Cooper at the tea table. Mrs. John Sears, Mrs. Marion Wilson, Miss Lotta Thomas and Mrs. James B. Johnson were also co-hostesses.

A Local Teenager's View By Janet Staub A bird of the Eastern and Southern states is the cardinal, often called “Red-bird.” Many have now moved farther north than they have ever lived before. The male is all red with black face markings and a thick red bill. The female is brown with a-touch of red. Both can raise the long feathers on the top of their heads to form a crest. Cardinals generally nest in thickets, but they often come around houses to visit a bath or feeding station. The above paragraph is true in saying that Cardinals are now moving farther north than they have ever lived before, because the town of Fillmore does have many Cardinals. Bat the local Cardinals do stay in houses. That may be so because that would put them that much closer to their feeding stations. Cardinals are known to live in gardens, this can be proven true by the mere fact of the long list of the Fillmore 4-H winners every year. Perhaps the best music a Cardinal can make is with the South Putnam Band and during the County Music Festival. The most obvious reason the local Cardinals are Cardinals is that the bird is the state bird and the state is the best so why not the town and the school 7 By the way: Several Cardinal opponents do claim they see red when engaged in a contest with the Cardinals.
Marriage Slipping? LONDON UPI—Reports circulated in Europe today that the marriage of Greek shipping magnate Stavros Niarchos and American auto heiress Charlotte Ford may be at an end. Neither Niarchos, 56, nor his wife, 24-year-old daughter of the head of the Ford Motor Company, could be reached for comment. Mrs. Niarchos has been on a private visit to London before going to Paris. Niarchos was recently reported to have been seen in Lausanne, Switzerland, in the company of his ex-wife, Eugenie, and their children.

TV In Review (By RICK DU BROW) HOLLYWOOD UPI — “Men in Cages,” the Tuesday night “CBS Reports” presentation, examined for one hour the question: What are prisons for? And although the range of its answers was certainly nothing new to any semi-literate reader of newspapers and magazines, there is no denying the vividness of some of the pictorial presentation drove home points effectively, especially the interviews with prisoners. In this day and age, surely no one needs a television program to be reminded of the argument that rehabilitation for the outside world is a key for convicts who seem able to handle the situation—but “Men in Cages” reiterated the case, reply heavily on visual exam-
ples.
The linking of poverty and crime, and the case for the importance of employment arid self respect, were underlinedagain. But surely t’-- most striking interview was with the manly young fellow who said that somebody owed him something —but that he found out, by learning himself, that nobody owed him anything. He felt that now he was ready for the outside, and he had learned a trade to help him get along. Again we were told how prisons often teach more crime to young convicts, and that they shouldn’t be lumped with hardened offenders who have been caged longer. We also had another run-through of the difficulties of getting a job once released, and of the halfwayhouses and rehabilitation centers. It’s not that these things aren’t important—because they are—but since most of this is well known, the program seemed again to shed only a little more light than heat. Some of the questions would not have set too well with my old sociology professor at Northwestern, Bill Byron“What do you think about?” “Are you lonely?” But I do think he would like the idea of giving as much dissemination as possible to an important matter. One thing I must add: The maddeningly impersonal tone of some of these immensely fair documentaries these days gives one the impression that if the nation were to be invaded tonight, all the networks would —as someone has suggestedimmediately put on programs giving both sides of the issue.
