Ted’s Future? - (Continued From Page 1) Bu* back to the merits of the case. Herb Kline, Nixon’s communications chief, quickly put out the word that Administration people would not comment on the Kennedy fiasco. Democrats didn't want to talk about it any more than they had to. But privately Republicans were jumping for glee that Teddy had painted himself into a corner and would have a difficult, ff not impossible, job of extricating himself. Republicans, as a matter of well known fact, feared Teddy as the one man Richard Nixon might not be able to get by in 1972. Now, they felt, thijs was no longer a problem. I Democrats were saying, by the scores of thousands, “Kennedy is through,” and were turning an eye toward Lincolnesque Ed Muskie who made such a good showing as Hubert Humphrey’s running mate in* 1968. You will be hearing, more about Ed Muskie. Os this you can be sure. Our thought at this time is that events of the past two weeks will make Teddy Kennedy one of the most able and dedicated men in the U.S. Senate. He has a big millstone around his neck and he knows it, and hie can only overcome his broken image by full and honest dedication to his duties. But 1972 is only three years off . . . not such a long time. On the other hand 1976 is nine years off ... . quite a while. Incidentally, can yoju • remember who Richard Nixon’s running mate was in I 960? You can quit scratching your head. It was Henry Cabot Lpdge, U.‘ S. representative to the Paris Peace talks. See what we mean? All the morbid details of the July 18th incident that took the life of a fine young girl and nearly shattered the political life of one of the country’s-bright young stars, have been torn and retold. And it has not been our purpose here to rehash them. Like most readers of newspapers and magazines, and television newscast watchers, we, too, are haunted with doubts. Some questions are unanswered. We want to think Teddy Kennedy is a human being, subject to the same margin of error that faces most of us. Many have begun to think of him as bigger than life, and this is an error. We haven’t had our first Letter to the Editor on this much- f discussed topic, but inquiries were free and fast coming that no story had appeared in The M-J concerning “our considered opinions.” I We have a huncn some will be coming now. CLAYTOWNSHIP BUDGET UP 16< The proposed budget for Clay township is up 16 cents over the 1968 budget according to the legal notice which appears elsewhere in this paper. The notice of ta|x levies is signed by trustee Wayne R. Johnson. The 1968 budget has levies of 16 cents in the general fund, 21 cents in the fire fighting, two cents in recreation and 11 cents in civil bond for a total of 50 cents. The proposed 1969 budget has levies of 21 cents in the general fund, 31 cents in fire fighting, 13 cents in the civil bond fund and one cent in recreation for a total of 66 cents. I

More Law Enforcement

Dear Editor: As a new resident to Lake Wawasee, but not to boating or water sports. I am quite amazed at the lack of law enforcement on the lake and also the number of boating accidents. As I have read your local paper the last few weeks, I have seen two severe boating accidents to prove my point. Only on Saturday, July 26, did I see a skier being towed with no life jacket (state law) go right in front of the Conservation Department boat, but the officers (three) did nothing; because I

made it a point to watch to see if action was taken. It seems to me that some sort of closer surveilance should be taken. Common “Rules of the Road’* are disregarded or may not even be known. At the former lake where we boated, any youth up to the age of 16 had to have a license to operate a boat of five horsepower or more. This may be a little strict, but then' again, there were no accidents either. R. Alan Burt Indianapolis, Ind.
