Brenner, presi- dent and chief executive offic- er of AMP., Inc. has released estimated first quarter results, Sales rose to a new quar- ter 1971's $56.00 million, and slightly ahead of the previous high of $66.1 million in the fourth quarter of 1971. Net income rose to $7.0 mil- lion or 87c per share — 27% higher than the 45c¢ of a year earlies and slightly better than the fourth quarter 1971 earn- ings before extraordinary gains from revaluation, It should be noted that interna- tional sales and earnings in 1972 reflect the new higher exchange rates, which were first used to translate sales & earnings in the fourth quarter 1971. The backlog of unfilled or- ders rose during the first quar- ter to approximately $44.5 million from 42.9 million at yearend 1971. The backlog at Mareh +31, 1971 was $32,700,- 000, The prospects for further growth in:the second quarter and the remainder of the year are good, Brenner said. The extent of growth is, of course, somewhat dependent on con- tinued economy recovery here and abroad. *mously have Jaycees Attend Larry Gainer led a delega- tion of Mount Joy Jaycees to the Pennsylvania Jaycee Dis- trict 8 meeting at the State headquarters in Lancaster this* past Saturday.

Joe Heckert, Jeff Brown, Larry Gainer, and John Harnish attended the event. Rick Breault, local chair- man, took several boys to the special olympics at Eph- rata this past Saturday in the rain.

And—depth is what Donegal high’s track and field team does not have this year. There’s plenty of power for first places but there is no depth of performance. Ample proof of the need for depth was never better underscored than this week when figures were released naming the top ten track stars in the entire county. Three of the ten were Donegal Indians and not another school in the county claimed more than one of the other seven. Yet — Donegal’s trackless trackmen have won only one of their first seven meets this season and the chances that they will win others are somewhat remote. Donegal’s trio of Cliff Betty, Norman Heisey and Larry Priester—plus a smattering of seconds and thirds — can not win track meets. The only way a mere handful of lads can turn the trick is to have two or three dash and middle distance stars. Each man can claim his share of individual points and then combine to win relays. But, that is a rare and ideal combination seldom available. Donegal is fighting an uphill victory battle not only because the school has no track facilities of its own but also because of a lack of interest to give the team sideline support. Students, faculty, administration and townspeo- ple virtually have ignored the trackmen — at least this year until now. About the only consistent fan the team has is the bus driver, whoever he happens to be. But — for the record. Of the hundreds of boys in Lancaster county who probably are interested in track, Donegal’s Norman Heisey, lanky senior jump artist, has been the highest scorer in 1972 track meets. Third high scorer is Cliff Betty, dash artist. Both score heavily in three events each. Larry Pries- ter, who specializes in only the high and low hurd- les, is tenth high scorer in the county. Track is a tremendous sport which builds boys into men, placing each individual on his own to ach- ieve success, unaided by the cooperation of other members of a team. And, the three Donegal Indians are to be lauded for their achievements. But, Donegal is not and no other track team ever will be a winner unless there is a depth of talent which reaches deeper than three - BR four stars. What’s Right With America Several weeks ago Edwin Eshleman, U. S. Rep- resentative from this district, made the principal address at the annual meeting of the Mount Joy Chamber of Commerce. His talk—short, pithy and square on target—was entitled, “What’s Right with America?” As apropos as any Chamber of Commerce ad- dress we have heard in years, the Congressman, in schoolmster style which was clearly understandable to all, laid out the fact that there are a multitude of things in our society which are RIGHT and are keep- ing our world on an even keel. One recent writer said that all ‘that is wrong with our nation is that it is suffering from a “sub- jective disease” which he called “social hypochon- dria.” Hypochondriasism is an abnormal anxiety over one’s health, often with imaginary illnesses. Eshleman pointed out that the same basic ele- ments for greatness are as abundant today as ever and that faith and work are the pattern of our na- tional greatness. Too much we are concerned with the current crop of young people and their methods of making their presence felt. We have come to believe that ALL boys and girls of high school and college age are headed straight down hill, that they-are trouble makers and are dissipating everything their fore- fathers have won for them. Thas is an inadequate viewpoint of “what’s wrong” with the country. It is an abnormal anxiety. One local schoolman estimated recently that 10 or 15 years ago only three percent of the youngsters in high school were giving any trouble. The other 97 percent were moving ahead. He guessed that maybe five percent—locally, at any rate—are trouble makers in 1972. That leaves 95 percent who are attending classes, doing the best they can following relatively the same goals as their elders would have chosen. It is time to emphasize more pointedly the good ward and to kick the hypochondria view- aspects of our times, to look upward and out- point. INITIATE There are people who sit around waiting for some- thing to happen before they commit themselves to ac- tion. There are others we might call them initiators, who help make things happen. They are constantly in- itiating some happy and adventurous event, starting a whole series of exciting activities, releasing a current of life, love, and joy in a delightful and often unexpect- ed way. Wait or initiate: the choice is ours!
