No better way of paying honor to the fallen soldiers and the respected dead can be imagined in these troub- ed times. The causes and influences which swirl around our heads are difficult to evaluate but the Pennsyvania De- partment of the American Legion has offered an approach to opinion which is worthy of consideration. The release is as follows: THINK! U. S.

Zerphey Call 653-2289 a copy of some of the “Communist Rules for Revolution.” Now fifty years later, the Reds are still “following the rule”. As you read the list, stop and think about the present-day siuation where you live—and all around our nation. We quote from the Red Rules: “A. Corrupt the young; get them a- way from religion. Get them interest- ed in sex. Make them superficial, de- stroy their ruggedness. “B. Get control of all means of pub- icity, thereby: 1. Get people’s minds off their gov- ernment by focusing their attention on athletics., sexy books and plays and other trivialities. 2. Divide the people into hostile groups by constantly harping on con- troversial matters of no importance. 3. Destroy the people's faith in. their natural leaders by holding the latter up to contempt, ridicule and ob- loquy. 4. Always preach true democracy. but seize power fast and as ruthlessly as possible. 9. By encouraging government of extravagance, destroy its credit, pro- duce fear of inflation with rising pric- es and general discontent. 6. Foment unnecessary strikes in vital industries, encourage civil dis- orders and foster lenient and soft at- titude on the part of government to- ward such disorders. 7. By special argument cause the breakdown of the old moral virtues, honesty, sobriety, continence, faith in the pledged word, ruggedness. “C. Cause the registration of all firearms on some pretext, with a view to confiscating them and leaving the population helpless.” “Take time to think seriously of the above and draw your own conclu- sions.’ Whether or not you can believe the complete truth of the above, whe- ther or not you believe the full im- pact of the message, or whether or not you care is beside the point. The point is, that if you were de- liberately attempting to undermine, to erode, to decay or to harm the strength of America, how better could you accomplish that aim than by us- ing the tactics outlined above? Truly, Memorial Day 1970 would be a day of heavenly rejoicing for the honored dead if America would on at least, on one day in the year, look its self squarely in the face.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 27, 1970 Others are saying --- TROUBLE IN THE GRANDSTAND A udience participation shows have made their mark on TV. Some critics-writhe in agony as these amateurs em- iarge from their seats to ham it up on camera. Hamming it up for TV is one thing, but crowds at sports events have been going one step beyond. There was a time when spec- tators came to applaud. Now they turn out to revil> the athletes, vilify the officials, deface the stadium and ob- struct the action with bottle barrages. Three weeks ago, we cal- led attention to a «2emingly glaring case of mob action at the Pirates’ opener in Pitts- burgh. Subsequent events have knocked the Pittsburgh disturbance into the routine class. Similar outbizaks oc- curred at a Yankee double- header in New York and the Cubs’ 1970 debut in Chicago. Baseball fans have no monop- oly on contemptible conduct. Hockey spectators, never not- ed for C'2corum, grew wilder than ever during the Stanley Cup playoffs, showering the ice with debris and chanting obscenities in Boston, Chicago and New York. And Lew Al- cindor, the brilliant new ad- dition to pro basketball, took a murciless verbal lacing from Madison Square Garden vul- tures during the NBA play- offs. Club officials cannot be ac- cused of indifference to the situation. The Yankees have considered eliminating doub- leheaci>rs, which spur the most vicious types into action when customers depart early, leaving lower box seats va- cant. The Cubs are installing a TV monitor system to spot trouble-making punks quick- ly. The Cubs also are erecting a scien along the bleacher COMEDY L NING rOOM : FORMITURE wall to keep hellions from jumping onto the field and throwing refuse. At this rate, stadiums will take on the ap- pearance of prison farms, which might make the cul- prits feel right at home. Extra police, kkavy wire screens and TV monitors are excellent precautionary meas- ures, but they are unlikely to correct the warped behav- ior they are intended to com- bat. Says Lee McPhail, gener- al manager of the Yankees, “It doesn’t make any differ- ence how many police are on hand. It is impossible to stop a mob.” The sports world is con- fronted with its share of bad actors, but things could be worse. The trouble makers have yet to burn down a sta- dium. Maybe that is because they never had the advantage of a college education. —Sporting Niws OVER 40? Over 40? Remember to ask your doctor about a procto as part of a regular health check up.

To cut down on such hazards, the tub should tt equipped with a rubber mat and well-mounted hand rails to grab hold of when getting in or out. These are especial- ly important if older people are around. CORNER ““Perhops you would be interested in a chair like this for your husband.”
