Sister Mary Jacob, new Ad ministrator of Holy Family Hospital, Atlanta, told a panel discussion of obstetricians and gynecologists that early sex education should be imparted in question and answer session between teachers and young sters. speaking at a conference on obstetric, gynecologic and neo natal nursing sponsored by the Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Del- aware district of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, she criticized what she called *‘stereotyped, textbook forms of sex educa tion.” “Children must be offered ideals as well as information,” said Sister Mary Jacob. SHE also disagreed with the practice of routinely advising all unwed teenage mothers to give up their babies for adop tion. “Each girl must be individ ually educated to the responsi bilities and problems involved This GMA Too Tough For Winless Marist so that she can make the best decision for herself, her baby and her family,” she said. BUT Dr. Leontine R. Young, executive director of the Child Service Association of Newark, N. J., disagreed, saying: “To rehabilitate the unwed adolescent, we must advise her to surrender the childfor adop tion. There are many reasons for this, primarily the finan cial status of the teenager and the lack of maturity. “BABIES need to be brought up by adults, not by other chil dren.” Sister Mary Jacob called for more intense research in sex education methods, deploring the “haphazard” presentation of sex education of the past. The hospital administrator and Dr. Young afreed that the teenager “in trouble" must be treated with maximum love and social acceptance. “THERE are two major groups of unmarried mothers, the middle class and the lower income class,” said Dr. Young, “with both groups hostile, ag gressive and coming from dis organized families. “Primarily, they need first of all to be looked upon sym pathetically and with kindness as unhappy human beings, “said Dr. Young. Believe Coming events do cast their shadows before. The hand writing is on the wall. The surging wave of conser- i! vatism sweep ing the coun try is clearly reflected here in our new Fourth Dis trict. The people are stirred. They are standing up to be count ed for the re turn of sound, Roscoe Pickett common sense government. They demand to be heard be fore it is eternally too late. The coming of age of the two- party system symbolizes this. Southerners are no longer content to be everlastingly taken for granted. Tradi tional party lines no longer blind the awakened citizen. In our brand new district we have a great challenge to make a brand new record. As your first representative from the new Fourth I will closely protect and promote our local interests while help ing crystallize the assets of two-party government in Georgia. Toget 1 er we will work to stem the tide that threatens our constitutional rights, our freedom at home and abroad. For the past ten years, through my law practice in Washington, I have estab lished friendship and respect in governmental circles. I am dedicated to making our voice heard where it counts. 912-saSDEa- Elect Roscoe Pickett Congressman 4th district BY PETER K.
