Letters To The Editor z= In Defense Os The Kids

Dear Editor. Tiiis is a letter written in defense of our kids who were involved in the episode at Albion. How many of the people have bothered to get the full facts on the case? Not many. They just read the papers and eondemed the boys as if they were criminals. They are barred from the Youth Center, some innocent and some guilty, which I figure was very unjust. If they are going to let just perfect boys in~they are really going to have a small membership. Because as everyone knows there is and was only one perfect man. I'm not saying all these boys are innocent but I do think the people, the school and the youth center should have found out the full facts, that aren’t as bad as the

i papers played it up. Just how many boys and even girts’ haven't been in a fight? Were they arrested and told by some they hope they throw the book at them and that they all |be put in jail'.* As they were told right to their faces. 1 I have always been for the youth center and have donated to it since it has started. But. I always thought ; it was to help the boys and girts, not to run them down as they have done. Some of these people have I boys and girls of their own. Do you I know what the future holds in store for them? Os course you don’t. Be- \ fore 1 condemn too many of these j boys. I would stop to think what would and what could happen to j your boys and girts. None of us knows. Biggest share of these boys I have never had any trouble with

Come on everyone, let's help th? youth today instead of knocking them down in the gutter like some of you have done. Now don't get me wrong. 1 don't go in for these fights and rumbles that the youth of today have. I think it is shameful and will never go along with it. It is a pity and a shame to think the youth now'-a-days has to fight. What's the purpose? Is it to prove a point? Make them feel important? I don’t know. But I do think a little help and understanding can do most of them a lot of good. Tliere's some good in all of us. " elc
