Small Girl Expresses
Concern About War
In School Assignment
The following theme was
written by Sally Winters as an
assignment in her fifth grade
class. Class members, under the
direction of Miss Marguerite
Glavey, have been studying
Vietnam: the country, its peo
pie, the war, and the military
background. Sally is the 11
year-old daughter of Mrs. Mil
lie Winters. Her older brother,
imon, is being sent to Viet
nam soon, and this brings the
meaning of the war closer to
her and her family.
'The Vietnam war Is bringing
lolence to the U. S. because the
S. armed forces wants to draft
more men.
The U. S. Government calls
us, or drafts men between ages
13 and 26. The men are called
by the draft boards of their
hometown. Many of the boys
send the cards back to the U. S.
Government or burn their cards
for the feelings of the Vietnam
war.
"There is a man director of
the draft who is called General
Lewis Hershey. He thinks that
the men should be punished for
what they are doing. Some peo
ple feel they should not be pun
ished. "My opinion is that they
should obey the laws of our
country.
"I have a brother that is going
to go the 20th of March to Viet
nam. He feels that he should
go and fight for the people of
his country and protect them
from the enemy and he also
says that if we don't stop them
they will take over other coun
tries and finally the United
States. I am proud to be his sister."
