'KID GALAHAD’ —Elvis Presley, in one of his most unusual roles, appears in “Kid Galahad” at the Boice Theater in Warsaw September 5-11. For the first time the star appears as a prize-fighter. The idol of millions of teen-ag-ers, Elvis popularity has increased since his release from the Army and his recent screen performances have impressed older audiences as well as critics around the country. After surprising everyone with his easy-going comedy style in “Follow That Dream,” he combines this talent with straight drama for his role of the bewildered boxer in “Kid Galahad.” For the offbeat role (not only does he not get to be champion in the story, but he isn’t really a

After miles of road work every morning, Elvis worked out on the light and heavy bags and boxed for hours with, Callahan and several professionals also hired to teach Elvis the ropes (no pun intended). He lost 12 pounds before Kid Galahad” went into production and admitted being in the best shape of his lit®. Callahan, who has tutored filmfighters Errol Flynn, John Garfield, Kirk Douglas and Burt Lancaster, among others, calls Presley "... my best pupil. He has a natural rhythm. He would have made a great boxer.”

1 Editor's Mail Bag i IS MILFORD UNDER A DICTATORSHIP? Labor Day morning at 8 o’clock the telephones in nine Milford homes rang and we parents were informed that our sons or daughters were involved in some trouble" the night before and we were to be at town hall at 9 o’clock. The ’62 graduates were invited to our home the evening before to a party in honor of the three boys who had enlisted in the Marine Corps and were leaving the next morning. At 10:45 ten of them decided to take a little ride around town before the 11 o’clock curfew made it unlawful for them to be on the streets, so they climbed into and onto a convertible and drove south and east from our house. When they were at the Bethel church comer they let out a reusing cheer. Immediately someone radioed the police department and night officer Pierson soon stopped them and took their names. A member of our town board was there, too, to see that justice was done. Our daughter Mary used a very descriptive adjective in reference to the grin on his face. She should not have said it but neither should he have been there. They came back to our house before 11 and got pretty loud in discussing what had just happened. Who wouldn’t have ? So at 9 o’clock on Monday morning we parents appeared at town hall and were given a lecture on juvenile delinquency. Officer Kneeland emphasized that he had never had any kind of trouble with any of these young folks. Now if the board member had wanted to make something of Mary’s choice of words and had called her and me to town hall to discuss it, I would not have objected. But I strenuously object to his calling the parents of the others, of whom not a one has ever had any trouble with our local police or with the school officials. The board member admitted when asked that the teenagers did no damage of any kind and said that he reported them because he was concerned about their safety. I asked if they were driving fast and he said no. So, actually the only infraction of the law was too many in a car. Why is one man allowed to upset a holiday for decent, law-abid-ing citizens who had more important things to do than sit in town hall and listen to someone tell them to teach their children to respect law and order? I’m convinced the parents there had taught their cluldren to obey the law but respect has to be earned-and not demanded. I personally feel that it is a discredit to the adults when 25 or 30 teenagers can’t have a party on an evening before a holiday in honor of boys jvho are going into the service of their country, without someone calling the police. I feel that an apology is due the other parents who spent Labor Day forenoon in town hall. Children and teenagers can see our shortcomings just as plainly as we can see theirs, and they are

CLAYTON HOLLAR MORE ON SPEED BOATS August 30, 1962 ' Editor, The Mail-Journal Dear Editor: | This is a follow-up on the subject of the speed boat menace as written by Martin W. Levernier recently in The As he did not cover all the hazards, I want to mention some of my narrow escapes. A few days ago while fishing slowly across and in front of the channel on Syracuse lake leading under the railroad bridge, a young fellow I did not see came full speed, made a quick turn to go through the channel. I don’t know if he saw me but as he missed me by only a few yards, he turned to grin at me as I rocked a by-baby in his wake. When I have been fishing out in the lake I have seen these cowboy skiers headed toward me at 40 or more miles per hour, with two skiers zig-zagging behind covering perhaps a 300-foot swath with two or more persons in the boat and all of them apparently watching the skiers behind them. This is not a pleasant sensation when you don’t know if . the pilot sees you or not. As a result of these hazards, I usually fish near the shore. I certainly don’t fish at anchor so as to be tied like a sitting duck to be run over by these over-zealous sports. I suggest to Mr. Levernier that instead of the fishermen carrying a shotgun, it might be better sport to let the speeders carry the shotgun to shoot at the fishermen. I would rather be shot than be mangled by their boat. I guess Mr. Levernier, we old fellows have been around too long. You know we don’t seem to have any priority rights. I have been fishing Wawasee and Syracuse lakes for over 75 years. How many of you fellows fished these lakes when they were called Turkey Lake, so named because the lakes on the map were shaped like a turkey? Well, I did. Leßoy E. Riddle

Norman Little looks over some of his 50-sow herd on his 160-acre farm, five miles southwest of North Manchester. The Little farm will be the second stop on the 1962 Northeastern Indiana farm management tour, Sept. 13. On the Little farm tour members will see an efficient, low cost hog enterprise and a small cattle feeding operation that fits in well with the over-all farming plan. After viewing the Little farming operations, tour visitors will eat lunch at Laketon.

Unjustifiable Damage At Striking Area

Unjustifiable damage was done to a motor bus carrying workers into the Arnold plant at Pierceton on Tuesday morning. A window in a bus belonging to the Indiana Motor Bus Co. was broken when a stone was hurled at the bus, and a rear panel of the bus was pried loose in an obvious attempt to reach the motor of the bus. The acts occurred from 7 to 7:20 at the entrance to the plant, according to Pierceton police officer Pete Yorg who was on duty at the plant. Officer Yorg said he requested the sheriff’s office to provide addled protection at the plant after he heard there might be an incident of some sort. Deputy sheriff Leo (Dick) Miller was at the plant, and escorted the bus onto the plant grounds. According to driver Jack Loser of Warsaw a second window was broken as the bus left the plant. He said he has made over 50 trips from Warsaw into the plant, and would refuse any more trips if proper protection could not be provided. According to officer Yorg there Were no arrests made, since he said the action was some distance from where he maintained his patrol. He said there were about 50 strikers on hand, and he would guess about 20 were from outside the plant area. By this he felt safe in saying they were from South Bend, Elkhart and perhaps Goshen, since they had GG license plates. Don’t Condone Violence The Pierceton Press contacted Donald Miller of Warsaw, president of the local union on strike at the Pierceton plant. He said, “We don’t condone violence, stone throwing or any other unlawful acts. When such a group gets together, tempers flare, and often get out of control. We re-

gret this has happened.” The strike at the Arnolt plant which began July 9 has been i peaceful, except for several minor incidents which beggar full reporting. The Press has continually complimented strikers and company officials for their fair and democratic approach to seeking a solution to their problem.
