Agnew discussing the country’s future space goals: “We should, in my judge ment, put a man on Mars by the end of this century.” Almanac For Today Today is Monday, July 21, the 202nd day of 1969 with 163 to follow. The moon Is approaching Its first quarter. The morning stars are Mercury, Venus and Saturn. The evening stars are Mars and Jupiter. On this day In history: In 1861 the first major engagement of the Civil War took place at Bull Run Creek in Virginia. In 1873 the world's first recorded train robbery oc curred when Jesse James held up the Rock Island Express at Adair, lowa, and made off with $3,000. In 1930 the Veterans Adminis tration was formed. In 1954 armistice agreements ended the seven and one-half year Indo-China war. A thought for the day: Ernest Hemingway said, “So far, about morals, I know only that what is moral is what you feel good about and what is immoral is what you feel bad after.” GRIFFIN Cary Reeves, General Manager Bill Knight, Executive Editor view pome Momentous for all the earth, universe Few presidential acts are not subject to exception for some reason or from some quarter, but President Nixon's designation of today as a national day of participa tion in the moon landing is certainly one such. The President avoided declaring the event a holiday, and wisely so. It is much more than that, as it is much more than national. In all mankind's long history there has never been another quite like this event, and there may well never be a gain. None of the explorations and achieve ments that have preceded it on this earth can quite compare with man's first step into the infinite universe beyound. There are other landings to come, on the moon, the planets and conceivably beyond But none so momentous as this first. Space—Man's Junkyard Astronauts Neil Armstrong, Edwin Aldrin and Michael Collins may be short on human company during their lunar voyage, but there is no shortage of inanimate re minders of earth along their course. In the brief time since the first Sputnik, less than 12 years ago, man has distributed an incredible number of his souvenirs in cislunar space—the 240,000-some miles separating earth and moon—and on the surface of the moon itself. As of June 30, there were 1,730 manmade objects— functioning and spent satellites, rocket bodies and other debris— in space, according to the U.S. Air Force Aero space Defense Command which catalogues all launchings. To which have now been added the castoffs of Apollo 11 and Luna 15. Not only the United States and the Soviet Union, but France, Britain, Canada and Italy—using American rock ets to launch their satellites—have contributed to the total. The U.S. count leads all others combined by almost three to one. Strewn across the moon’s surface are the remains, intact or shattered, of 22 American and Soviet unmanned lunar probes. Apollo 11 will add considerably to the total. In addition to the flag and the lower half of the lunar module which serves as the launch pad for their blast-off from the moon, Armstrong and Aldrin are leaving behind functioning scientific equipment and no longer needed items such as cameras, tools and even parts of their space suits. It all adds up to some sls million worth of space-age hardware—a bargain price for the few bags of lunar rocks for which it is being exchanged. Citizen Generals There is no mystery why the Pentagon has been dis mayed by attacks on ROTC at so many college campuses. The services would be in bad shape today were it not for a steady influx of college-educated officers. According to Army News Features, the most recent figures show that 27.9 per cent of the Army’s general officers received their commissions through ROTC. That’s 145 generals out of a total of 519. Os the 145, 82 are brigadier generals, 59 are major gen erals, three are lieutenant generals and one is a full general. 3 Cheers for Nessie Nessie, it appears, has won again and remains champion of earth’s unsolved natural mysteries—or myths. Nessie is the cozy name given a strange creature other wise down-to-earth Scots firmly believe dwells in the deep waters of Loch Ness, supposedly a one-of-a-kind biological leftover from some long-ago age. Over the years, there have been many reported eye witness sightings of Nessie —and considerable disagree ment as to what shape of creature different eyes saw—but as yet, no concrete evidence acceptable to science that she (or he or it) actually exists. Lately, the hunt for Nessie has been taking a technologi cal turn, sonar sounding of the depths and such. This sum mer's effort, the most ambitious to date, involves a sub marine, a little yellow number, which, it is hoped, will scout out Nessie’s underwater lair. What with recurrent leaks and other mishaps, however, the sub has been having difficulty getting on with the job, a development local Scots firmly believe is the result of Nessie’s well-known jinx. Maybe, maybe not. But while we are not about to admit to being superstitious, or to standing in the way of man’s advance of the frontiers of knowledge, secretly we’re on Nessie’s side. In an age when man is taking his first steps toward un raveling the secrets of the stars, it’s somehow comforting that an age-old mystery right here at home still defies solution. If Nessie has her (or his or its) way, man will never be a know-it-all. Quimby Melton, Jr., Editor Published Dally Except Sunday, Second Ciasa Postage Paid at Griffin, Ga.—Single Copy l«e.

It seems that they are oat to ( destroy the system. In y o ■ r qplnlon, are they anarchists? W.B. I think that generallutlons are risky. It would be unfair to say that all students who are de manding changes In the educa tional system are anarchists. But, I believe I can describe those who are anarchists. First, and anarchist resorts to violen ce. In the United States we, his torically believe In, peaceful, non-violent dissent. Violence Is a tool of the revolutionist. They advocate it, and they practice It. Second, an anarchist rarely be lieves In God, for God 13 a Per son of order, and there 13 no or der in anarchy. He makes bls own rules, and the Golden Rule Is unknown to the anarchist. It In bls will against all others. Third, an anarchist Is usually a moral renegade. He not only re bels against society; be rebels against most accepted moral be havior. I do not mean to imply that all students who are caught up in the campus revolts are anarch ists. There are always “good kids”, who are attracted to any kind of excitement and action— who get Involved in campus ac tivity. But, sooner or later, they will drop out — and leave the perpetration of chaos to those who have an Insatiable desire to destroy. thoughts So that through two un changeable things, in which it is impossible that God should prove false, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to seize the hope set before us. —Hebrews 6.18. WORLD ALMANAC FACTS sW&iSI E23 ‘‘Poor Jones!” was the cry as William Jones be came New York City’s first draftee under the act of March 3, 1863, the first fed eral draft. The World Almanac says. Exemption could be bought for S3OO or by hiring a substitute. The poor complained that such exemptions made the Civil War “A rich man’s war and a poor man's fight.” In July, New York was the scene of murderous draft riots.
