He has set new rules to insure safety of the skaters as well as allowing all to have a good time. One of the rules is that there be no hats or coats worn on the floor as they are often thrown around or become a hazard. He said he had asked one young man to leave after he pushed some other skaters and refused to remove his hat. When he refused to leave Redman called the po lice. He told the Observer that he refunded at least $50 to skaters who decided to leave Saturday night. Redman told the reporter that he had previously oper ated a skating rink in Seattle. He felt the discipline at the Imperial was too lax and that additional rules w ere needed. He also has eliminated spec tators, except for parents whose children are skating, in order to solve the problem of a lot of non skaters hang ing around. He plans to set up various programs to meet the needs of everyone who wishes to skate. He has been a com petitor and a teacher of skat ing and believes it is good sport and good recreation for young people. He empha sized that all persons who want to skate are welcome to the rink. the good Bread John Mu/ien 's Old Blood’s Department Store BtooJA for {in# ehuis “ A complete line of the latest in M en’s and Women’s w ear and Children’s Shoes Phone 2 8 1 -6 8 0 8 3 9 3 3 N.E. Union A ve . Every day, some innocent person bounces a check. In the summer issue of M H , quarterly magazine of the National Association for Mental Health, D r. Belmont warns against the huge ex penditures of time and money for those projects that are the most rewarding in num bers and results at the ex pense of those that are indi vidually oriented. He describes the recent expansion of services for the mental health needs of all children, not just a limited and select middle class but thousands who have never had access to psychiatric care. However, according to the author, it is easy to go astray in these areas where there are so many variables. “I t is more wish than reality." adds D r. Belmont, “to insist that only one kind of tre a tm e n t or school of thought can be applied equally to all clinical prob lems." He recognizes that there are several points of g en era l a g re e m e n t among child co m m un ity m ental health programs, but adds we must keep in mind “the all important continuing re sped for the individual child and specific treatm ent ap propriate to his needs. . . For if our eyes are wide open and have been that way from the start, we can see the difference between a self deluding wish and a carefully reinforced ideal." D r. Belmont is Professor job, according to NDO Super visor M arian Scott and A rt Richardson, who acted as supervisor of NYC activities in addition to his other duties. Their work assignments in eluded watering street trees in the Irvington and King Vernon Sabin neighborhoods and doing surveys in these areas. They also worked door to door handing out flyers in both the Irvington and Boise Humboldt neigh borhoods. Some of the stu dents were given the oppor tunity to work in the ND O production room. Denise Nelson (Grant High School) learned to use the Xerox machine and decided it was “quite fun." Dog problems incurred by some of the group while working in the neighborhoods were summarized nicely by NYC worker W ilbert An drews lRooses elt High) who said, "I think I know hew the mailman feels." T h e group's enthusiasm went beyond its assigned tasks. Suggestions for a youth workshop and ways to get more youth involvement in the community were out lined by the young people. They also asked permission to attend neighborhood meet ings and to have a voice in community planning and af fairs. All felt the summer's work was worthwhile.
