NEW YORK—Svetlana Alli
luyeva, daughter of Josef Stalin,
explaining why she defected
from the Soviet Union and her
hopes for the future of Russia:
“Perhaps those students who
are now 18, 19, 20 years old, In
Russia, when they will become
grown up ana when and if they
will become social leaders in
the country, they will bring
something more modem and
more democratic. I hope so.
NEW YORK — U.N. Secretary
General Thant concerning the
war in Vietnam:
“I agree with Dr. Arnold
Toynbee and others that nation
alism not communism is the
ideology animating the resis
tance movement in Vietnam. . .
. The war cannot be brought to
an end until this fundamental
fact is recognized.”

Some Working
To Revive Track
It has been a long, long time since Griffin High had a
good track team—one that could participate in a meet and
come out near the top when points are tallied.
The problem isn’t going unnoticed.
Some people are trying to correct the situation by pro*
moting interest in the sport.
The Griffin Recreation Department is holding a series
of meets at elementary schools. The meets will be climaxed
Saturday with a big city-county meet at Municipal Park.
Grady McCalmon, who heads the recreation depart
ment, hopes the meets, including the big one Saturday, will
be the groundwork for bigger and better ones in the future.
Recreation officials believe that by introducing track in
elementary schools, the youngsters will learn to enjoy the
competition and continue the interest in junior high and
high school.
If the plan works, and interest is continued in junior
high, it may not be many years before the Griffin Eagles
can hold their own in a meet.
Griffin High has had some outstanding individual per
formers in the last several years but not a good, solid team.
Coach Russell Gray hopes to revive it and believes the
Eagles can produce a team with loads of ability if enough
interest is shown.
Track is an outstanding sport and we hope the people
working to rebuild it are successful.
If they are, maybe it won’t be many years before Griffin
becomes a leader in the sport.

Don’t Be
A Sucker
This is that time of the year when the door-to-door
salesman (or saleswoman) makes his or her appearance.
It’s also that time of year to remind you to take caution.
Here are some basic rules for sensible buying, as the
direct-selling companies themselves suggest:
1. Don’t hesitate about asking any salesperson for his
identification. All legitimate companies provide adequate
credentials, thereby protecting you as well as themselves.
If any doubt remains in your mind, check with the police
department.
2. Don’t be taken in by a sympathy appeal or pitch.
The “I’m working my way through college” routine is still
being used, and effectively, after all these years.
3. Be wary of the overly persistent salesperson who re
fuses to take “No” for an answer. Certainly all companies
would like to make a sale, but the better ones train their
representatives to accept a “No” graciously, and to move
on.
4. Beware of the salespeople who seek entry and your
indulgence by telling you they are working on a survey,
then switch to a sales pitch. They are often phonies, and
reliable companies frown on such tactics. You should ask
them to leave the first moment this happens.
5. If any article or number of articles offered requires
a contract signature, take time in deliberation. Tell the
salesman you want to consult with your husband or wife
before signing. Many companies will not make this a bind
ing agreement, but enough do to make it worth your while
to be careful. Read the fine print carefully at your leisure,
be fully certain of your requirements, cost factors, and all
the procedures involved.
6. Finally, beware of the salesperson who proclaims
“big bargains.” Legitimate direct sellers do not offer
“bargains” since they know that they must offer competi
tive prices if they are going to make a profit.
A word to the wise should be sufficient!
When Two Martinis
Are Too Many
METROPOLITAN HERALD, ATLANTA
Atkinson County public school officials went to Wash
ington recently to appear before one of the H. E. W.
school “directors” about that county’s civil rights com
pliance. After the conference the Georgians charged that
the official “was under the influence.”
Hot denials were issued. The Atlanta dailies jumped all
over the Atkinson officials for making such an accusation.
Later the official admitted that he had “had just two
martinis” prior to the meeting.
What that H. E. W. official does about martinis after
working hours is no concern of anyone. However, during
working hours it is the concern of the general public, re
gardless of the social custom in the nation’s capital.

MY A
ANSWER d
Unsatisfying
I am a Christian and in t h e
service, but find the worship
services at the base chapel very
unsatisfying. Have you any sug
gestions? 8.1-
Our thinking is wrong when
we assume that Christian ser
vice begins and ends in the chur
ch. I heard of a man who was
late for church, and breathless
ly he entered, asking an usher,
“Is the service over?” The ush
er answered, “the worship hour
is almost over, but the real ser
vice is just about to begin.” He
meant, of course, that we are
to go out from worship to ser
ve in a Christian way.
There are many things you
can do. For one thing you can
gather interested servicemen for
group prayer and Bible study.
If Congressmen find it helpful
to pray together each week, and
they do, then servicemen should
find help and inspiration in such
an exercise.
Then, since spiritual life al
ways finds expression in com
passion and helpfulness to oth
ers, the men who meet with you
should find an outward express
ion for your new-found inner
strength. There are homeless
children in your area who could
use your love and understanding.
There are young people who
need counsel and friendliness.
Lhen I was in Vietnam recent
ly, I saw our soldiers building
schools, feeding orphans, and
repairing damaged homes, and
paying for it out of their meager
pay. The world is filled with
opportunities for Christian love
and service.

I may dole out all I possess,

none the better. (I Corinthians
13:3, NEB)
PRAYER: Give us, O God,
opet eyes and ears towards our

them, to think with them, and
to do something for them. Help
us to be free to love, free to

Peruvian Indians often live

cause their lungs are larg
