FOUH MEDFORD MAIL-TRIBUNE Friday, Sapt. 14. 1945 SERIOUS THREAT, Steps must be taken now to head ott increasing Juvenile delinquency and overt what threatens to become a major postwar problem, Robert W. Hansen, Milwaukee, Wis., edi tor of the Eagles' national maga zine, asserted in an address la3t night at the Eagles' hall noar. Dale Carr, president, presided at the meeting. Hansen, former national pres ident of the lodge, warned that war and its aftermath are al ways accompanied by a letdown in moral standards and unless the present increase in Juveniie delinquency is halted, the result will be disastrous. The speaker said that solution of the prob lem is one of the major concerns of the Eagles, that each aerie has committees on youth guid ance, that the national lodge has erected a large dormitory at Father Flanagan's Boys' Town and that state-supported lnstilu tlons for needy children ore be ing proposed by the lodge Js on important step to word off child delinquency.

"Organiza tions like the Eagles, providing brotherly assistance and a help ing hand, are the community groups essential for this task," Hansen said, and outlined pro grams being followed by some aeries. Hansen declared that the Eagles' Memorial Foundation fund of $1,500,000, now being raised, will be a valuable con tribution to the veterans' pro gram since it will aid children of Eagles with scholarships and promote civic, educational, scien tific and charitable undertakings.

Cocky, aggressive, always in trouble, he was the thorn in my pedagogical flesh. Time passed. Pearl Harbor. The little boy, now a big one, fairly raised a dust in his eagerness to get at the Japs. This was entirely within character, I thought. A lad for violence, never tender ness; a heart for battle, with no room for the softer emotions. And then a letter from the son in Alaska. He had met the boy, now a sergeant. At his ac count of that meeting, I knew that down underneath that swaggering exterior there must always have been another boy; a boy with possibilities (or a man's tenderness as well as a man's violence. So little can we Judge the man to be by the boy that is. "That boy. Mom, is Just as cocky and noisy as ever but now he shows it 'man fashion'. A blocky, husky, typical ser geant. I was some one from home he could talk to. And be lieve me I listenedl I listened to talk of his mother, his father, his brothers; especially the 19-year-old brother who has been in several major battles and in vasions, including D day and the Belgian Bulge. "But talk of his wife and son took up a major portion of the time. I went with him through the first time he met HER; their courtship, their de cision to have a baby, its ap proach, arrival and progress. "He knows exactly how mi.ny letters his wife has written him in the 26 months he has been in Alaska. Up to the time he was with me, it was 773. As that was yesterday, it will be 774 by now, for she writes every day. He has been married four years and one month: in the army four years. In all that time he has never been home on Christ mas, or on their wedding t-nni-versary. Missing the last, 1 sew. irked him more than misung Christmases. "He knows his work and likes it. He is with the signal corps you know, dictaphones and such; the post's Inter-com sys tern; where one office can press a button, talk at a box and be heard in another office and be talked back to. But- what he wants to talk at is not a box but his wife. A tough guy with a tender heart; I've found the tougher the outside, the trore tender the inside is apt to be. We should be proud to know this cocky youngster, Mom." And I am. But Just the same, I'm glad I won't be teaching school when his son Is getting his education. He might be like his dad and I doubt if I could stand two of them. But maybe I could, remembering the man that developed out of the boy that was. BIRTHS J COFFMAN To Mr. and Mrs. Donald L., 440 So.
