Let's Not Have Any Split in Brookings
We had a feeling the o th e r day th a t Brookings isn't the
same tow n we came in to six m onths ago. N ot o nly has it grown
by leaps and bounds, w ith new buildings going up as fast as
concrete block men and carpenters could w o rk hut the com
m u n ity has lost som ething in route. W v ho|M' it is only a tem(>or-

T here is a d e fin ite feeling .of a s p lit, between the gro w th
on the N o rth e d g e ,o f Brookings, and the "d o w n to w n ” section.
T hat wo don't w a n t to see. Sure, you can understand the feelings
of the dow ntow n merchants. N a tu ra lly , they w u u ld lik e to see^
a ll the business houses situated rig h t down tow n w here it w ould
be easily accessabte to a ll the patrons. B ut it ju s t isn t possible.
A tow n m ust grow and it must .grow in the directio n th a t b u ild
ing sites along w ith parkin g is available.
The (m int is, as we see it, is it going to make any d iffe r
ence to tho consum er? Is he going to hesitate to buy ju s t be
cause a store is located a few blocks out o f the down tow n area?
T im e w ill te ll on that score. The re ta il buildings are there, and
re ta il o u tle ts w ill e ith e r f ill them up o r not, and the businesses
w ill e ith e r sucoeed o r not. Bu, w hy have a com m un ity split into
tw o factions? Those m erchants on the N o rth end of tow n don't
deserve to he called "outlanders” or "fu rrin e rs ,” o r "Yankees
fro m N o rth Brookings.” They live in Brookings too. and w ill
co n trib u te in m aking Brookings a b e tte r place to live.

Wednesday. Eeh 2, at the home
of the hostess, Mrs. Lee Daro-

over the nrv.'eting.

W h ile parents moaned *° (be
high heavens anerit the scandalous
goings-on o f teenatpers whom they
conveniently
labeled
‘‘ju v e n ile ’
delinqiK 'nts,” they, themselves in
the incubators o f th e ir book con
tro lle d homes were hatching some
little demons who when they grew
up promised to m ake the modern
juv’enile delinquent look lik e a
Sunday School teacher at a dope

Accepting the theory th a t the
lit t le d arlin gs _ must, never be
crossed, must never 1/? re p rii-
marxled, m ust alw ays have th e ir
own little ways, some homes and
schools became lu n a tic asylum s

were thus encouraged pot only to

B ut now at last a gleam of
lig h t has pierced this darkress.
A n othe r psychiatrist, and a p ro m i
nent one too, has passed the w ord
along to parents th a t unless they
w ant th e ir child re n to grow up
into fru s tra te d m isfits, they hail
b e tte r stop the swcuf ta lk and get
the old hairbrush out o f the m o th
balls.
1 don’t know w he th er th is re-
v o lu tio n a ry p sy c h ia tris t has ju s t
become aware o f w hich side o f the
couch his bed jg buttered on or
not. But I do know that his voice
is welcomed as a savior o f gen
erations yet to come.

The presiding officers o f both

coordinating the ta len ts and te m

I t takes leadership and m any
o th e r exceptional q u a litie s to get
a leg islative session going as it
should. This leg isla tu re has these
a ttrib u te s in President of the Sen

o f the House Edward A. Geary.
I t should not be d iffic u lt fo r

To visito rs in the galleries on
the th ird week, the pace o f th e
session may have se*?med slower,
T his happens when com m ittee
members get the g rip o f things
