They were doing a very fine job keeping up to date material to work with. MODERN GEOMETRY I visited the math lab and found Mr. Black teaching modern geom¬ etry. A new teacher and modern geometry seem to go together very well. SOUTHERN ASSOCIATION OF COLLEGES AND SCHOOLS The visiting committee will come to the high school the first week in November. They will study and evaluate the school’s program, the administration, the policies of the County Board of Education and take a close look at the school’s self study which the school has been working on since last spring. From these the committee will make recommendations for White County High to follow in order to be accrediated by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. A Woman Scorned London Violet Watts, 43, heard that her husband had been seen with another woman. She found her husband’s girl friend in a market on the firings of East London and poured a can of black paint over the girl’s new white car. Then she smashed all the car windows with a four-pound ham¬ mer. She was just about to cut off the girl’s hair with a pair of scissors when police intervened. In court, Mrs. Watts, a mother of four, pleaded guilty to possessing offensive weapons. Mrs. Watts, who said she had reconciled with her husband, was put on probation. Paper Suspends Publication In Indianapolis INDIANAPOLIS — The Indinap olis Times, an afternoon news¬ paper tradition here for more than 77 years, suspended publica¬ tion with Monday’s edition. The Scripps-Howard newspaper had long suffered what editor Tom Boardman described as “a long period of increasing deficits.” He said that even with recent increases pi circulation and advertising,” revenues had fallen increasingly short of more rapidly expanding payroll and production expense.” When the decision was an¬ nounced to Times employees, there was weeping as staffers returned to their desks to put out Monday’s edition, which carried a story and an announcement headlined, “re¬ gretfully and reluctantly.” Why Newspaper c Advertising? One of the countless reasons why the response to newspaper adver¬ tising is so outstanding is that women EXPECT to see advertis¬ ing in their hometown newspaper — The Cleveland Courier. This special advantage of The Courier, which we have pointed out so often, is now buttressed by a research project which has con¬ cluded: “getting a woman to see an advertisement is not enough — A woman pays attention to adver¬ tisements when they’re where she EXPECTS to see them — (in the Cleveland Courier” Golden Aster 9 •its* National WildMa YOUR SUBSCRIPTION NOW Established 1891 Arrogation of Legal Power by Congress Defies Constitution Augusta While in Augusta at court, I have read your reply to my letter of Oct. 7 as contained in your very courteous, but pointed column of Oct. 12. Your thesis seems to be that our American form of government — supposed to be a constitutional republic — has degenerated into one in which Congress can enact any law it pleases and the courts will ratify it. That thesis is directly in the teeth of the axiom: “This is a government of laws not of men.” It seems to me that it is a very dangerous thesis for if our lives, our liberty, and our property, are to be controlled not by a written constitution but by the will of the majority, then the lives, liberties or properties of today may be a minority of tomorrow. And, if the Congress, in defiance of the Constitution, arrogates unto itself the power to try and punish men accused of murder, arson, rape, robbery, burglary, and other crimes, hitherto thought to be within the domain o*f the state governments, will it exercise that power in California (Watts, for in¬ stance) as well as In the South? Or will it, as it did in the so-called Voting Rights Act of 1965, confine the exercise of its newly discovered power to punishment of the states of the South? CHARLES J. BLOCH Atlanta Constitution About People J On "Hard Times it The Editors: It seems that every time we pick up a paper we read of the hard times various peoples in our state are having. They can’t find jobs, go to school or find a decent place to live. These are the people we read about. We never read about people who want the same things, but are not too lazy to find the job they want, go to school, or fix up the place they now live in. However, you will find the ones who don’t really want these things, but just want to cause trouble riding around in nice cars. I came from the so-called wrong side of the tracks, one of six children of a minister (he did his work in the church and not on the streets), who made very little. We saved our money, made by selling papers, until we could buy the house we were renting. We didn’t have a car in the driveway, but spent any extra money fixing the house up. To make this hard, my father died when the oldest was less than 20 years old, so don’t tell me it can’t be done if one wants to. E. F. HENSON. Decatur.
