Mother Robin moves into a new home

On the Lighter Side

The walls of the home are dark. They slope gently to the ceiling. The floor is carpeted with pale yellow straw, green weeds and tiny brown sticks. The home, located on Manhattan Road, is occupied by a little robin and four tiny blue eggs. It is a unique home for a robin. For it is a Daily Banner mail box. The home offers protection from the hot July sun and from sudden windy and sometimes violent summer thunderstorms. Mother Robin need not worry about her nest blowing from the branch of a tla branch of a tall maple tree. The home, of course, is ternporary. It belongs to Mr. and Mrs. George Clemens and is visited daily, except on Sunday, by the Greencastle Daily Banner. The nest and the eggs were first detected several days ago when Mrs. Clemens checked the box because the papers kept falling out. The nest is located in the back of the box. But the newspaper would not slide all the way to the back. When cars passed the box, the papers fell to the ground. Until the little robins hatch.

Hollywood

the Daily Banner will not be put in the mailbox. Sunday evening, Mr. and Mrs. Clemens took their children out to see Mother Robin’s home. She was nervous and didn’t appreciate the visitors, fluttering and fretting until the family left. Motorists traveling on Manhatten Road are asked to drive carefully and quietly, to not disturb Mother Robin’s home.

news

HOLLYWOOD (UPI)--T e e nagers are as eager to become movie stars as were their parents and grandparents before them despite sit-ins and general rebellion against the arthritis generation. Proof that youngsters dig the glamor scene can be found best in casting offices in Hollywood where thousands of kids try to crash the celluloid bag. M o s t of them, however, mistakenly show up f o r an interview looking like Theda Bara, Valentino or Brando. Wrong. What movies, television and even commercials are looking for are young people who can pass for young people. The best advice comes from Jennifer Shull, a comely blonde, who is a casting director for EUE-Screen gems. Her specialty is finding clean-cut kids for commercials. “More than ever before sponsors and agencies are looking for young p e o p 1 e to sell their products in commercials,” Miss Shull said. “The important age bracket is between 12 and 20. “We’re not looking for sophistication. There’s plenty of that around Hollywood as it is. “What we look for in teen-age prospects is vitality, sparkle and animation. Beauty or good looks aren’t essential. It’s the feeling and excitement of youth that counts.” In some respects the television commercial can act as a creen test. A producer or director watching a show at home frequently notes an interesting face or a spark of talent and seeks out the novice performer. Miss Shull interviews between a dozen and 20 hopefuls a day. Toughest of all are the children accompanied by their mothers. Most little kids don’t want to act, but arm-twisting mamas sock it to ‘em if they don’t come on like Shirley Temple. “That’s the most pitiful sight of all,” she concluded. 4-H news GAY JUNIORS The Gay Juniors met for the sixth time at t h e Cloverdale School building. The meeting was called to order by Vickie Cummings. The pledge to the flag was led by Jill Henson. Roll call was answered by naming a favorite pet. Community Judging, set for July 19 at 9 a.m. in the Cloverdale school, was discussed. The club is planning a picnic for Aug. 8. Demonstrations were given by Kathy Scott and Connie Staley. Songs were led by Susan Sendmyer and Kristi Fidler.

Ala. Vegetable Industry MONTGOMERY, Ala. (UPI) —Alabama’s vegetable production industry is grossing $20 million a year and may become one of the state’s major agricultural businesses. During the past year, there were 10,000 acres of fresh market tomatoes, and acreage for processing crops, such as peas, cucumbers and peppers, was well over 5,000 acres each.

By DICK WEST WASHINGTON (UPI)—It probably is a good thing that National Football League players called off their threatened strike. A good thing for the players, that is. The strike might have been effective in Green Bay, Dallas, Baltimore, Cleveland and maybe a couple of other cities. But it is difficult to imagine the

Washington Redskins winning a strike. It is difficult to imagine the Washington Redskins winning anything. Fundamental to the success ofsany strike is a strong picket line. There is no reason to suppose the Redskins would have been able to keep anybody from crossing their line. They also would have been

deficient in signs carriers. If the strike had come off, it likely would have marked the first time in the history of the American labor movement that somebody fumbled an “unfair” sign. It is, however, interesting to nte how closely sports are becoming identified with political, social and economic problems of the day.

Pro footballers are now a part of organized labor. The civil rights issue is reflected in the proposed Olympic boycott. And so on. Next reason, I presume, college teams will be starting their own protest movements, bringing on a new wave of campus disturbances that might develop somewhat like this: EAST SWEATSOX, 111.—Rebellious members of the Cowlick College football team seized control of the locker toom today as part of an “athletic freedom” demonstration.

Police said the players were holding the trainer, Sam MeTendon, as a hostage in the whirlpool bath, pending action on their demands for a greater voice in running the team. Among other things, the players are seeking the right to create their own blocking assignments, which presently are determined by the coach. “Why should the coach tell us which men to block on a certain play?” said right tackle Steve Trappe, a spokesman for the group. “That is a direct violation of athletic freedom. It

stifles individual initiative and self-expression. “A player should be free to block anyone he chooses, including a memer of his own team, if he feels like it.” He said the demonstrators also were demanding abolition of the huddle, which he described as “an anti-democra-tic device designed to perpetuate control of the game by ‘the system.’” The honeybee moves its wings back and forth more than 400 times a second.
