What is a young adult book?
Why is it that young adults ac.
cept some specific titles and re
ject others? The publishers plaint,
“if only librarians could agree
on a definition of a young adult
book we would know what to
promote in this field”, is regu
larly heard.
As a rule, the young adult, that
is, a person in the last two
years of high school or the first
two years of college, chooses or
rejects a book on the basis of its
content in human experiences.
Adolescents choose books on ex
tremely uneven library merit.
Primarily they are interested in
the social problem represented
or the problems of human rela
tions. It may be that the book
made them think of something
they had not previously thought
about. It is rare when they men
tion the style of the language,
the craftsmanship of the plot
ting, or the excellence of the
characterizations. They are read
ing for content.
Young adult librarians across
the country were asked to submit
suggestions of adult hooks copy
righted since 1960 which have
been successful with young pea
ple, as well as those which prov
ed unsuccessful in spite of pub
lishers’ and for librarians’ recom
mendations. All of this was in
an effort to answer the question,
“What is an Yuong Adult book.”
The following titles were from
the list of books to which they
gave their stamp of approval:
Von Ryan's Express, by David
Westheimer. An American colo
nel’s discipline brings order into
a prison of war camp in Italy
during World War II and earns
him the Prussian title *“Von"';
later the colonel engineers an
amazing escape for the men in
the boxcars.
Black Like Me, by John Howard
Griffin. The author who is white
and a Texan conceived and car
ried out the unusual notion of
blackening his skin with a newly
developed pigment drug and tra
velling through the Deep South as
a Negro; this is a journal ac
count of that experience.
Mail-Safe, by Eugene Burdick
and Harvey Wheeler. What might
happen if a false alarm were
given in a missile raid; a novel
that is less about war between
two nations and more about war
between man and his machines.
The Spy Who Came in out of the
Cold, by John Le Carre. In this
topnotch spy story an East Ger
man has just killed the least ef
fective agent for the British be
hind the Iron Curtain,
The Rebuilt Man, by Fred War
shafsky. Today when men are
being kept alive with borrowed
kidneys, a leading science writer
examines transplant surgery.
Travel With Charlie by John
Steinbeck. The author accompan
ied by his French poodle named
Charley, toured 40 states to note .
what changes had occurred during
the past 20 years.
Life With Mother Superior, by
Jane Trahey. Reminiscences of
the author, often amusing of his
years as a boarding high school
student in a Catholic convent.
Bridges-McDowell
Wedding Plans Told
Miss Kathy Elizabeth Bridges,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank
Blackshear Bridges of Blakely
and Tallahassee, Florida, and
and Tonny Joseph McDowell, son
of Mr. and Mrs. Wade McDow
ell, of Tallahassee, Florida, have
completed plans for their mar
riage, August 6, at 4:00 at the
First Baptist Church.
The Rev. Harold Johnson, of
Tallahassee, Florida, will offici
ate and the bride will be given

New Orleans, sister of the bride,
will act as her matron of honor.
Bridesmaids will be Miss
Tawee McDonald, of De Funiak
Springs, Fla.; Miss Janice Row
land, of Tallahassee, Fla.; Miss
Judy Smith of Pensacola, Fla.;
and Miss Elizabeth Suber, of
Greensboro, Fla.
Miss Lilla Gramling organist,
and Miss Cathy Carroway, solo
ist, both of Tallahassee, Fla.,
will furnish the music. For his
best man, Mr. McDowell has
chosen David Mann of Pensacola,
Fla. The ushers will be John
Bridges, brother of the bride,
Bill Morris of Pensacola, cousin
of the bride, Daniel Perkins and
Richard Todd, both of Tallahas
see, Fla.

i\’§ .~ Reports From :
.|| WASHINGTON ...
THE INCREASED air offen
sive and the bombing of the
fuel dumps in North Viet Nam
was applauded by most of the
American people. My view is
that this action was a step in
the right direction,
In the ab- @ o
sence of a : ?
willingness on L i
the part of the ' #f 3
Communists to i
halt aggres- B
#ion and talk e
peace, Amer
ica must make
it clear that
we will not back down. The war
must be conducted with all the
vigor we possess and with abso
lute determination to win,
In my opinion, this is the only
way to achieve victory in the
battlefield and to reduce the
loss of American lives. Only
with such determination and
the utilization of our air and
sea military supremacy can the
United States hope to bring this
conflict to an early conclusion.
. L .
THE RECENT air raids on
the Hanoi-Haiphong fuel com
plexes were fully justified and
it is my hope that this offensive
will not be relaxed, As long as
North Viet Nam sends her
troops and supplies into the
South and supports the Viet
Cong, then her supply depots
and supporting industries are
legitimate targets. Crowded ci
vilian centers should be spared,
but we should allow no privi
leged sanctuaries that would
otherwise be strategic targets.
At the moment, increased in
volvement seems to be the
proper course. The North Viet
namese have said they vill not

Freddie is the son of Mr. and
Mrs. Eddie Martin, 657 Cherry
Street, here in Blakely.
Friends will be interested to
learn that, after spending sev
eral weeks visiting relatives in
Wren and Augusta, Ga., Mrs. P,
H. Fitzgerald has returned home,
be forced to negotiate. Yet they
have been unwilling to talk
peace under other circum
stances more favorable to them.
The United States has great
and acknowledged power in all
facets of modern warfare, and
no one should expect us not to
protect our soldiers as well as
to prosecute this war sensibly.
. . L
EVERY CITIZEN of course
has deep feelings about the war,
The burdens of this conflict af
fect each of us personally and
there have been many, many
tragic experiences.
An indication of the increase
of our involvement is evidenced
by draft quotas today as com
pared to a year ago. The na
tional quota for July, 1965, was
17,100. This month it is 28,500,
From Georgia, the military is
asking for 425 more young men
than it sought a year ago, 743
now as opposed to 318 last July.
It is the hope of all American
citizens that the war in Viet
Nam will end quickly and that
our boys will be brought home,
Various approaches including
peace offensives have been
taken, but they have been met
only by Communist scorn,
Peace and a cease fire, unfortu
nately, is up to the North Viet
namese at the present time.
Until such a time as the Com
munists realize the futility of
their efforts, the United States
has no other choice but to con
tinue to meet force with force
and to vigorously strive for
victory.
