These were four starting lines I was approached with recently at a graduation party I attended. They were opening lines for conversation on a subject I was completely unprepared for by four high school seniors, three boys and one girl. i Sn The subject — what would you say to a child, especially con- cerning athletics? Wow! What can you say? 1 started with the “Old” cliche, just be honest and do your best, try and RODGERS meet your goals, that kind of stuff. Well they didn’t go for it. Let's get down to facts was their reply. Here are some of their ideas on this and, boy, they make a lot of sense. Obviously, we set goals, both aca- demically and athletically and we try to reach them — sometimes with success, sometimes without — ‘but doesn’t anyone realize we have more fields to attain these goals than most people. This is the most important years of our lives now, everything we do is setting the ‘stage for our adult lives. As one put it, we have to set goals in every- thing from the way we eat, who we hang around with, the way we dress, not to mention our grades and athletics. Well this is where I tried to limit the conversation to sports, realizing I didn’t have enough experience in other areas. This is where I searched and found their biggest complaint. That is that they are always reminded of the “dont’s” — the bad things with little or no emphasis on their good qualities, qualities they could work on harder and perfect to use as their foundations. Also they have no modern day heroes to look up to, to set exam- ples. As one said, people in the generation ahead of them had some good books and movies like the Lou Gehrig Story or Brian's Song, some- thing to make people think and relate to. They say they have the movie, “The Natural,” but for the most part all they hear about are drugs and drinking. They said they got the message, but how about the alterna- tives. Why doesn’t someone stress this, they asked, and give us some guidelines instead of always telling us what we shouldn’t do. Let us, as individuals, know what we’re good at and give us ideas on how to use them. Well, the conversation went on and on, the group got bigger, par- ents joined in, there were even a few coaches involved and when I get home, it had me doing some serious thinking to myself. in The Dallas Post and were taken by a Dallas Post photographer are The available for sale. and $5. for an 8x10 print.

After that it’s almost a lost issue, which puts post graduation sports at a near null. Oh yeah, there are few scattered amateur leagues around and there is college, but in many cases after high school, these leagues cannot satisfy everyone's schedules and not everyone will go to college which leaves things in somewhat of a neutral zone. So where do we go from here? I don’t really have any answers for sure, but maybe someone else does. As I stated, I have no sure solu- tion to a very realistic problem that maybe we all didn’t take notice of, but if anyone has any ideas no matter how small you think they may be, pass it on. As a well known commercial says, “It’s the start of a new generation.” Let's give it all we have to offer. FARRER RENEE REY Tournament set Hopkins and Ray Besecker.
