NEW YORK (UPD—Dr. Ad
rian Kantrowitz, announcing the
death of a baby six and a one
half hours after America’s first
heart transplant operation:
“We consider this a failure.
The baby seemed to be doing
reasonably well following the
operation but the heart suddenly
stopped. Resuscitation was at
tempted without success.”
WASHINGTON—Sen. Warren
G. Magnuson, D-Wash., intro
ducing a bill In the Senate to
provide federal regulation of
warranties offered by manufac
turers of cars and other
products:
‘‘Too frequently there’s a
seemingly endless succession of
return trips to a dealer to
obtain the repair which should
have been performed on the
first visit. Even when a product
is properly repaired, many
complain that prices charged to
correct minor defects are
exorbitant.”

Boycott Would
Deprive Athletes
A sociology professor at San Jose State College has
announced a Negro boycott of the 1968 Olympic Games.
The boycott was apparently endorsed at a black power
conference by a few prominent athletes.
However, some of the nation’s greatest Negro athletes,
including Jesse Owens, are against it.
A similar boycott four years ago would have deprived
Wyomia Tyus of Griffin the opportunity to rise to the high
est athletic superiority.
A boycott in 1968 would deprive the United States of
some of its outstanding athletes and the opportunity for
them to demonstrate their ability and skills in a self satisfy
ing manner.
Owens, who won four gold medals in the 1936 Olympic
Games, has spoken out against the announced boycott.
He realizes that he may be labeled an Uncle Tom be
cause he is against it.
“To me, the most important thing is to be in the main
stream of American life, to be a first-class citizen. I’m
always conscious of being a Negro. I also want to let people
know what we are. The only way we can do it is not to
withdraw but to participate,” Owens said.
Maybe the boycott will fall flat on its face and people
like Wyomia Tyus of Griffin will enjoy the experience of
performing their skills in competition with the world’s
greatest amateur athletes. We certainly hope so.

The First
Christmas Tree
Martin Luther is credited with covering the first Christ
mas tree with lights.
The story goes that the leader of the Reformation, re
turning home one beautifully clear and cold Christmas Eve
lifted his eyes to the sky in contemplation. He saw that
thousands of stars seemed to be clinging to branches of
the lofty pines. His first thought was to share the inspiring
scene with his family. That night a glittering tree blazing
with candles was Luther’s gift to his loved ones, and to
the world.
Georgia Needs
More Nurses
ADEL NEWS
We were glad to hear that Gov. Maddox has transferred
$50,000 from his emergency fund to finance a “blueprint
for action” to meet Georgia’s nursing needs by 1975.
Georgia’s shortage of nurses was told to Maddox by
some 50 representatives of the state’s nursing educational
improvement council.
Maddox has promised to help as he told of the shortage
of nurses when his wife was sick during his recent cam
paign. This is true all over the state and the shortage is be
coming critical.
The nursing need is threefold: An insufficient number
of students, failure of many to complete their nursing edu
cation and too few studying to become teachers of nursing.
We now only have 8,555 active professional nurses.
Now with the average growth of 300 nurses each year,
we’ll be short more than 20,000 nurses by 1975.
The funds will aid research for a year in conjunction
with an advisory committee from nursing education organi
zations.
We have always known that the secret for full and com
plete recovery from illnesses, operations and treatments
depends on the type trained nurses available. The doctor
leaves the serving ministry and follow-up to his skilled,
capable nurses. We should encourage every student poss
ible to follow this type training and work.
We know of no other profession that can mean so much
to humanity, than that of nursing. It should be prepared for
thoroughly and then the nurse will be able to fill a place in
the lives of people that no one else can fill. It is a God
given calling and we hope to see many more young people
giving in to this call.

He’s A Hippy
I am a so-called “hippy”. Whi
ch is to say that I believe in the
freedom of the individual to be
himself. I don’t see what every
one is so hook up about regard
ing this philosophy. I’ve even
heard you make remarks about
us hippies. Can’t you put in a
good word for freedom of the
individual to be himself? G.F.
Christ, above all men, taught
freedom. He said: “You shall
know the truth, and the truth
shall make you free.” He,
Himself, was a non-conformist,
and believed in people being
themselves, and not artificial
dupes.
But freedom is a dangerous
commodity, for it imposes upon
us a responsibility to make right
choices and decisions. For ex
ample, sky-diving is a wonder
ful sport, and a man is free to
Jump if he likes. But he would
be a fool if he jumped without
conditions being controlled, with
out a parachute. We recently
read of several lives which were
lost over Lake Erie because they
took too much liberty with the
laws of flying. As a result, se
veral men and women lost their
lives.
A hippy, like everyone else, is
free to live as he likes. But ev
ery freedom we enjoy entails
responsibility, and more: it en
tails the law of reward and pun
ishment. None of us is free to
live under unsanitary conditions
which may threaten the well-be
ing of our neighbors. None of us
is free to flaunt the law of t h e
land, to set a shabby moral ex
ample before our children, and
to break the moral laws of God
without suffering the consequen
ces.

The famed Texas long
horns were brought to

Gregorio de Villalobos, a

are thought to have been
taken to Spain from Africa
by the Moors. The horn
length of a Texas longhorn
ranges from three feet for
