Burton Peck, Lexington Editor: Several Heppnerites have writ ten to the E.O. applauding Bill (Dirtyshoes) Thompson's review of the recent civic music group's ballet presentation. While this is admittedly a matter of personal opinion, it reaches much further. It is a contribution to our juvenile delinquency problem! It is a strike at an effort to advance our cultural needs. This abuse of tal ents is hardly commendable. Maybe Bill (Dirtyshoes) Thorn- STAR THEATER Thurs., Fri., Sat., Dec 5-6-7 Last of the Badmen George Montgomery.

And poking fun at talent isn't praiseworthy. Is it any wonder Pendleton has five known juvenile groups. Such reviews of an effort to bring cult ural " opportunities to our com munity are what we are buying delinquency with. Finding it ex- hilerating is one personal con tribution to the issue. How many juvenile groups has Heppner? There are ohter things Dirtysh- aes' review can be applied to with far less harm than ridiculing tal ent and culture. Good music, bal- et, fine paintings are not subjects to be held up to ridicule. That is talent and ability developed by years of work, and not seldom work against many adverse prob lems often poverty! Yet perserv- ence and determination have car ried into maturity and realization talents. How can any intelligent person laugh at those working to win recognition and achieve suc cess? We need these cultural advant ages now as never before. Ameri cans have recently been awaken ed to the fact we have been by passed in scientific advance ment. We now follow a leader. How long can we maintain cult ural standards If we find exhiler atlng reviews abusing the efforts of those working hard to add their bit to keep alive culture? It is very easy to fall. Yesterday we thought we led the world in science. Today the truth is known by everyone. We are not! Can we afford to let our cultural existence become second rate too? Can we applaud those who rid icule talent by making fun of those working to bring to the masses opportunities to see and hear the arts? And yet think we are contributing something to maintain our positions among world nations culturally. Each small gain offered weighs heav ily in our cultural progress. Each destroyed, measures itself accord ingly. How can we hope to give our children opportunities to hear and QBE never closed its doors on a business day, and has never had to reorganize.

We cannot afford the world's greatest offerings, but we can provide its enoouragement by showing our appreciation of what we can afford and instill under- standing and desire in the minds of our children so they will want to attain the realization of enjoy- ing the best the world affords. And we do it by showing our appreciation and understanding that our children will come to sense its value and Importance and appreciate its cultural bene- fits. We are at the crossroads where our attitudes can make or destroy bea"ty in the eyes of our child ren. Are we to awaken again to find ourselves second raters cult urally? Can we laugh at our ig norance? Can we laugh with those who will at us? Let's think! Richard Markle, 1112 S. E. Emigrant, Pendleton CHURCH ANNOUNCEMENTS ST.
