-TV review

nation’s past military history. Those who disagree with his position might, of course, argue that the justice of a cause is the pivotal factor, but there is no denying the suggestion that the sight of seeing one’s soldiers killed and maimed heightens the horror of all wars. What we had here in the President’s remarks, therefore, was not the old saw of, in essence, pointing the finger at the reporter for covering the story. Rather, it was a recognition of the simple fact that this momumental technical development — television — has helped to evolve an entirely new outlook on war itself, one that will increasingly have enormous effects on diplomatic, strategic and military maneuverings. New Era The old techniques of settling things behind closed doors— once considered altogether necessary by high-level diplomats so that the common people didn’t foul up things because of their lack of understandingnow have been disputed. Whether this is good or bad is questionable, probably a bit of both. Because now even the best— or worst— national intentions can be altered in the public mind by the impact of awesome visual images, day in and day out. One can say all wars are terrible, as indeed they are. But who, for instance, could deny the nobility of the Allied cause against the monster Hitler and his Nazi Germany in World War II? Yet it is fair to wonder, if just a little, what public reaction would have been to television accounts of the fighting in the lengthy periods of that war when the Allies were doing badly. v One wonders also: would the unrelenting frankness of television have heightened the chances of “credibility gap” charges against some past presidents as well?

Sufficient grounds INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — The Indiana Appellate Court decided that high absenteeism is sufficient grounds for dismissal of a state employe. The state court Monday upheld the Henry Circuit Court which had found in favor of the Indiana State Personnel Board in the dismissal of Sarah Walden in 1962 as an attendant at New Castle State Hospital. The evidence showed Miss Walden had 92 days of absenteeism in 1960, 53 in 1961 and 19 up to July 2, 1962, when she was discharged. Card of thanks I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to everyone who was so kind and helpful to my sons and myself during my stay in the hospital. My special thanks to the fast and courteous ambulance service of Hopkins and Walton. Also Dr. Lett and Dr. Haggerty, the nurses and nurses’ aides at the Putnam County Hospital, to my friends at P. R. Mallory's, the boys of DeMolay and everyone who sent cards and flowers, and last, but not least, the people who donated blood. It was deeply appreciated and will never be forgotten. Thank you so much. Gwendolyn Sanders and Sons.

Card of than ks I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere appreciation to so many people and organizations who helped to make my recent sojourn in the Putnam County Hospital more pleasant and who helped me toward returning to better health. My appreciation is extended to so many and I cannot name them all, but I especially want to mention the doctors, Dr. Tipton, Dr. Wiseman, Dr. Schauwecker and Dr. Malone, the nurses, nurses’ aides, and other hospital personnel who were so kind to me; the ministers who came to call, Rev. Webb, Rev. Carpe, Rev. Robinson and Rev. Cox for their prayers and comforting expressions; to the Maple Heights Home Demonstration Club, the former Warren Township Home Demonstration Club, First Christian Church, Beehive Rebekah Lodge 106, Kappa Delta Phi Sorority, and the Greencastle Business and Professional Women’s Club, the members of which groups were so kind to send flowers and cards, as well as visits; to my many other friends, neighbors, and relatives for their many acts of helpfulness and kindness and solicitation. I cannot thank each of you personally just now, but I hope you will accept this expression as my personal thanks for your kindnesses and thoughtfulness. May God bless each and every one of you!
