OUT UN A—
LIMB
by Bo McLeod
I don’t know how much
good this will do, but it won’t
hurt to try:
Notice is hereby given
that it is time for our Indians
to “snap out of it” and stop
losing ball games. The only
way to do this is to start
winning them, boys, it’s as
simple as that.
I’m sure Jere Tillman will
appreciate my solving his
problem for him.
The president is asking for
a pile of money to be used to
“aid” the nation’s schools.
This is a noble objective, and
everyone should be much in
favor of improving our
schools. The difference comes
in considering the details.
No one can say that the
federal government would not
attempt to control the educa
tional systems it helps. And
past experience shows the at
tempt will succeed, if it takes
thousands of troops and mil
lions of dollars.
So, the question is not con
cerning federal aid to educa
tion, but federal control of
education.
The recent action by the
Justice Department to bring
about integration of schools
attended by children of fami
lies living on military bases
is but one more example of
federal plans to take over
everything.
I still think one of our con
gressmen ought to be intro
ducing a bill to limit the
collection of federal taxes on
the same basis the New Fron
tier boys want to limit the
use of federal money.
If the Federal government
says no federal money can be
spent in certain area if things
are not done as they wish,
the same federal government
ought to be prohibited from
collecting taxes in the same
area. ,
This is a novel bill, maybe,
but to put a bunch of there
fore’s and whereas’s in it and
stretch words and phases to
make it harder to understand
might come in handy for
reading at filibuster time.
—O'-
Yon and I can be as “bitter
as gall”, but what can poor
President de Gaulle be as
bitter as? ,
The British seems to tuinx
the way de Gaulle is acting a
bout that famous “common
market” is more strange than
common.
James Meredith has decid
ed to try again at Old Miss.
He says he will enroll for a
nother semester.
I’m not surprised at tms.
We have too much money
vested in his education
($4.5 million some say) to
a fast student
and Will get an early degree
rs some kind. At these prices
we can’t afford to keep him
in school much longer.
I’ve heard several fathers
<tav it doesn’t take quite that
much to keep a boy or girl in
college, but not much I
imagine this is a slight exag
geration.
So everybody talks about
the weather but nobody ever
does anything about it.
So, again, if it doesn t get
a lot better soon, I’m about
to get ready to try to do
something bout it.
