Bruised Newport
Back To Normal
Newport, R. I. (UPD.- High
society regained this famed
' Queen of the resorts from
the grip of the jazz cats today,
a- trifle bruised but not seri
ously harmed. ' .
The wild rioting by thou
sands of college-age men and
women outside the Newport
Jazz Festival at Freebody
park late Saturday night was
only an ugly memory. For
those who were rapped with
policemen's nightsticks, it may
still be painful..
An estimated 130 persons
were injured in the fighting
but none was hurt seriously
About 200 were arrested. Most
of these were later released
with a warning - and a prom
ise that a letter would be
mailed to their parents or
hometown police officials..
Physical damage to the city
was not too extensive; An ac
curate estimate could not be
given immediately, officials

Children Start
Summer Camps This Month
By GAY PAULEY
UPI Women's Editor
New York - The summer
camp rush is on, and within
the next few days an estimat
ed five million children will
pack up swim togs, tennis
rackets, baseball mitts and
postcards for writing home,
and head for the great out
doors. Within another few days, a
goodly percentage of the five
million will get homesick, get
poison ivy, and get over both.
Parents unused to so much
stillness around the house
will begin missing the kids
and writing plaintive letters
-although counselors and di
rectors hope they won't.
"The 'we miss you' letters
only revive homesickness,"
said Mrs. Betty Lowenstein,
executive director of the
American Camping associa
tion (ACA). ACA members
must meet certain standards
of site health, administration,
personnel, and recreation
program, she said.
Record Total at Camp
That five million is a rec
ord number, reports Marjorie
Hicks, managing editor of
Camping Magazine, official
publication of ACA. So is the
number of camps-13,000 of
all kinds, private, church, boy
and girl scout, and others
which are agency-supported.
Parents will have paid
from nothing for a child go
ing to a camp supported by
contributions to as much as
$1,000 for eight weeks at a
posh private spot.
To take care of this mass
of vacationing children,
camps will spend $238 million
on operating costs, not count
ing the salaries of counselors
and other staff. Miss Hicks
said. The food bill alone will
run to $91 million.
Miss Hicks said the camp
ing business grows each year
for several reasons.

Adolescent in Home?
Academy Gives Advice
By PATRICIA MeCORMACK
United Press International
New York (UPD Memo to
parents of adolescents:
Teenagers are reaching out
for the ability to do without
YOU.
For peace on the home
front during this phase of
child raising, the American
Academy of pediatrics sug
gests that mom and day pay
attention to the following
rules:
-Don't argue. Because the
adolescents are insecure, they
are defensive and argumenta
tive if given a chance.
-Avoid giving orders. Use
suggestions.
-Ask him to assist; don't be
too quick to assist him.
-Listen; don't talk.
-Trust; don't police.
-Treat them as if they are
grown up.
Sounds like an invitation to
run up the white flag in the
child-raising arena - making
parental authority as firm as
a wet noodle.
But you have to accept the
academy's advice on faith to
see if it works. The commit
tee of expert child-raiser com
ing up with the command
ments for parents of adoles
cents studied for months be
fore putting down the rules.
"Foremost, the adolescent
is interested in himself," the
child specialists said. "Unsure
of his developing personality,
but determined to become a
person in his own right, he
resists advice and efforts to
mold him.
"Consumed with regard to
his appearance, he resents im
plications that anything is
wrong, denies defects, be
comes unduly upset by any
.blemish, and is very unappre
ciative of remarks concerning
his appearance."
The pediatricians suggest
that adults treat the adoles
cent as if the adult feels that
the teen is somebody, refrain
from pointing out defects and
teach by example instead of
advice.
Rush to
about parents sending a child
to camp to get rid of him
she laughed. "Although cer
tainly camp gives parent and
child a good rest from each
other.
"But the major reason for
growth-there arc more kids,
"And more children need
fields in which to play,
woods in which to run. This
is becoming an urbanized na
tion.
"Even farm children now
go to camp. Their parents
want them to have the bene
fit of a summer with children
of their own age . . . and to
get lessons in swimming, ten
nis and other sports,"
Camping is supposed to ex
pose children to nature, help
teach them how to get along
with each other, and develop
self-reliance.
"More and more, it is rec
ognized as an adjunct to edu
cation," said Mrs. Lowen
stein. Camping also is supposed
to be fun, although counsel
ors don't consider syrup
poured into their shoes very
amusing.
"But kids don't change
just because they go to
camp," said Miss Hicks. They
still short-sheet playmates,
put water-filled balloons in
the bunks of their mortal ene
mies, and gather assorted liz
ards and frogs to bring home
at the end of the season.
Camp directors and coun
selors also collect-anecdotes
about children.
Miss Hicks' own favorite
was from the counselor who
watched as a youngster trot
ted down to the swimming
pool, his swim trunks falling
dangerously lower with each
step.
"You're losing your trunks,
Johnny," yelled the coun
selor. "Oh that's all right," said
Johnny, "I've got my name
tag in them."
"When in doubt, the adult
should treat the teen as if he
is older - not younger than
he is," the pediatricians said.
"It must be emphasized that
young people are individuals,
not robots.
"The more we as adults
know about them, the more
willing we are to learn to
know each of them; the more
we are genuinely interested
in them, the more we will be
able to do for them.
"A person likes to do things
for persons who seem to like
him, and a person is apt to
like those who seem to be in
terested in him.
"If adolescents are any
thing, they are very good ob
servers, and they quickly
sense who is interested in
them."
The pediatricians also said
that adults can do more for
young people by praising them
than by pointing out their
mistakes, by deprecatory re
marks or by constant offers
to help.
"Being unsure, he adoles
cent resists orders but accepts
subtle suggestion from which
they can make decisions them
selves," the experts said.
