MORE MURDERS are committed by men who are 34 years
old than by men of any other age.... GIRLS CALLED
DONNA, says our Name Game Man, tend to be most ladylike
in business, but slightly savage in romance.... TALK ABOUT
a mobile population! Just about one out of every five persons
moves each year, it’s now reported, and the average move runs
about 1,000 miles.
STEWARDESSES - Airline stewardesses are apt to get blue.
Very blue. In fact, a French medical fellow named Dr. Claude
J. Blanc claims few girls in their 20s suffer depression as often
as do the stewardesses. As to the why of this, he says, it is not
the altitude of their professional work that’s responsible, but
the velocity of their private lives.
NOW IT’S REPORTED that mgjor metropolitan area
wherein lives the greatest concentration of single men is
Boston. Statisticians say 20 per cent of the population
thereabouts is comprised of bachelors. Most are students, I
believe... . Mister, are you between 35 and 54 years of age? If
so, it may interest you to learn the average man in that age
bracket owes debts equal to 78 per cent of his annual income.
How are you doing?
RESEARCHERS are trying to trace some significance in the
fact that Americans now are buying 10 times as many
snowshoes as they bought 10 years ag0.... QUICK, which
letters of the alphabet are not on the dial of your
telephone? ... A CLIENT points out that the first three men
on the moon, Armstrong, Cooper and Aldrich, possess the
same initials as the first three men on earth, Adam, Cain and
Abel.... YOU CAN FIGURE a 70-year-old man over his
lifetime has eaten about 2,400 chickens.
CUSTOMER SERVICE - Q. “Who writes Spiro Agnew’s
speeches?” A. Am told that’s a 32-year-old Baltimore blonde
named Cynthia Rosenwald . . . Q. “How many railroad cars
does it take to make a train?” A. A locomotive all by itself is a
train, sir. ... Q. “What, pray tell, is a dactyliology?” A. Our
Language Man says that’s the study of finger rings. There are
such specialists... .Q. “Among the wearets of contact lenses,
the women outnumber the men, do they not?” A. By two to
0ne.... Q. “What’s Vince Edwards’ real name?” A. Vincent
Zoino. Incidentally, were you aware he has a twin brother?
A GERMAN SCIENTIST insists his studies prove that
roosters can talk. He has distinguished seven rooster words, he
claims. Interesting. What do you suppose those seven words
are? This merits further research.... “HOW LONG is a
60-watt lightbulb supposed to last?” inquires a customer. On
the average, if left on night and day, it will hold up for 42
days. A 15-watt bulb will go for 104 days and a 100-watt bulb
will burn 31 days.
AN ODDITY - Os the approximately 25 different kinds of
balls used in playing games, which is the most difficult to
manufacture? That’s right, the golf ball

By United Press International
PITTSBURGH - Arthur
Krause, the father of one of
four Kent State University
students killed by National
Guardsmen:
“She was completely disgust
ed with the whole thing. And
now she’s dead. Why in hell
couldn’t they have fired blanks,
or tear gas, or something
besides live ammunition.”
KENT, Ohio—UPl reporter
Robert Corbett, at the scene of
the violence:
“It was inconceivable to me
that the troops could fire such
a barrage at the demonstra
tors.”
KENT, Ohio - Brig. Gen.
Robert Canterbury, commander
of the National Guard unit
involved in the shooting:
“Any military man has the
right to protect his life if he
feels it is threatened.”
WASHINGTON—Secretary of
State William P. Rogers, in
testimony before the House
appropriations subcommittee a
day before President Nixon
decided to send U.S. troops to
Cambodia:
“We recognize that if we
escalate and we get involved in
Cambodia with our ground
troops, that our whole program
is defeated.”

point;
All should
follow Georgia
It was pointed out here yesterday that one way students on
college campuses can make their voices heard without vio
lence was through the ballot box.
Many on college campuses are of voting age. But still thou
sands upon thousands are not.
Most states require people to be at least 21 years old before
they can register to vote. This disenfranchises students un
der that mark.
Congressional leaders looking for answers to the problem
of campus violence might see what they can do to speed the
legislative process, clearing the way for 18-year-olds to vote.
Georgia for many years has permitted the 18-year-olds to
vote and has suffered no ill effects from it. In fact, we would
say the state has gained benefits from the law.
We suggest that the nation follow Georgia’s lead and give
the young people a voting voice in their government.
Thai help Laos
to hold off Reds
WASHINGTON (NEA)
The young Thai captain was thin and nervous. He
wouldn’t sit still, hopped from one thing to the next. He
couldn’t quiet down.
Not long before he’d been a “Lao.” The same man. The
same rank. The same Thai nationality. But he a been
operating for three years as part of the Lao guerrilla mili
tary forces. Against the North Vietnamese.
Now this was no ordinary Thai. His father was a general
who had been a key man in a military-political take-over
of the country a decade or so ago. In fact, this reporter
introduced him to a Thai friend, only to learn with some
embarrassment that years before the captain’s father at
pistol point had forced the retirement of my friend s father
as prime minister.
Neither this captain nor my other Thai friends ever re
vealed how many Thai volunteers were operating in Laos.
But from one indication and another the number must have
been considerable.
For what happens to Laos is of paramount importance to
the security of Thailand. The border between the two coun
tries stretches thousands of miles—as also between South
Vietnam and Laos and Cambodia. The opportunities for
infiltration and for running opium are endless. No Thai
army, whether doubled or tripled in size, could at one time
seal off these borders and those with Malaysia, Cambodia
and Burma. The lines are too long. Some of the terrain is
too rugged. A Maginot defense line, in which the defenders
wait patiently for the enemy guerrillas to come, is a hope
less exercise.
The Thai, not wishing to go the road of South Vietnam,
have made it their quiet business to move on the counter
offensive each time the situation in Laos seems to worsen.
They make certain their men and their units are on the
spot to collect intelligence and to take harassing action
when infiltration or conventional military action moves too
close to Thai borders.
Now the moral of this story is that if the North Viet
namese move too far into western Laos in their current
drive into the Plain of Jars, or if they should contemplate
taking over the entire kingdom, they will invite an expan
sion of the Thai guerrilla forces against them.
The modern Thai are no mean soldiers. They have stood
up exceptionally well in Vietnam. Their paramilitary police
are very tough troops, as demonstrated in a considerable
number of border skirmishes.
They are not about to sit still and allow an enemy Com
munist country to move in next to their borders and
threaten them with endless infiltration.
If free Laos requires outside ground combat units, the
logical forces, therefore, should be Thai, not American. The
effective U.S. role lies in logistics, training, supply, air
support and in technical and economic aid.

"One thing about teenyboppers, you never know if they
go for you, or the 'uniform'!"
AIY
ANSWER', J)
His Will
I want to do God’s will for my
life. But how will I know what it
is and how would I go about it?
Can you help me? H.B.
Your statement, “I want to do
God’s will”, shows you are on
the right track. In John 7:17, the
Bible says, “If any man wills to
do his will, he shall know...”
The subjection of your will to
God’s will is the first require
ment to finding God’s purpose
for your life.
Jesus, our Lord, sought God’s
will in prayer. Talk to God
about His purpose for your life.
Now, when some people ask
God to reveal His will for them.,
they don’t really pray at all.
They simply ask God to approve
what they have already decided
they are going to do. We are
really not seeking God’s will
until we are able to say with
Christ, “Not my will, but thine
be done.”
Second, test what you believe
to be God’s will be the common
sense test. I knew a woman
years ago, the mother of eight
children, who thought God had
called her to forsake her family
and go as a missionary to
Africa. God never asks us to do
the foolish, the ridiculous thing.
Third, test it by cir
cumstances. Does God offer you
a barrier, or an open door?
Sometimes natural events show
the way of God’s will. But we
must be sure, for at other times,
Satan employs natural things to
throw us off the traack.
But if your heart is open, in
His time the right way will be
shown. “Be still and know”,
says the Scriptures.
WORLD ALMANAC
FACTS
Right-hand driving is to
day almost universal. The
World Almanac says
Napoleon Bonaparte origi
nated right-hand driving to
expedite movement of his
army. Right - hand traffic
has remained wherever
Napoleon’s army traveled,
including Russia. England
and Sweden were not in
vaded by Napoleon and re
tained left-hand driving,
though Sweden switched to
right-hand driving in 1967.
