The policy statement was requested of the county court by the Jackson county plan ning commission in October. In its letter the planning commission noted the county has been constructing various facilities at the fairgrounds and is now considering fur ther facilities. The city of Medford pre pared a plan for its public fa cilities with the bureau of mu nicipal research and services, University of Oregon. This study was financed by the city and from a planning as sistance grant from the fed eral housing and home finance agency. The city plan recommends that federal, state, county and city administration facilities be grouped to form a govern ment center, the county plan ning commission letter noted. The county planning com mission proposes that Jackson county's building and expan sion plans be studied in rela tion to the existing plan pre pared by the city. The county planning study would be a review of the county courthouse area, fair grounds and other public land and facilities including a pos sible site for a new fair grounds, it was explained.

DOORS OPEN 1:15 - Continuous from 1:30 AFRICA AS YOU'VE NEVER SEEN ITI THEYCAME TO CORDURA EJCHARD C0r1TE"iCHAEL CALLAX . DICK TOM ROBERT ROS8EN CINEMA SCOPC unu COLOR Leonard A. - I feel badly because I can't do more for my children. Hugh D. - And I feel badly because I'm spoiling mine. You're better off. Leonard A. - My brother-in-law Hugh is an extremely wealthy man. I took a chance last week and asked him to lend me the money to send my three boys to camp next sum mer. It's a matter of $2,000, counting trunks and uniforms. To my surprise he refused and read me a lecture on how it would be the worst thing to make camp so easy for my Kids, going into debt and all. Why are my children so dif ferent from his own? His go to private school, take horseback-riding lesons, spend week ends and holidays on a 60-acre country estate, see every sports event and show in town. As for mine, I'm glad if I can cough up their modest allowance each week. Even so, they must do odd Jobs to cover their school expenses. Hugh D. - Len wouldn't be so envious of me and my chil dren if he knew the whole story. My daughter is under going psychotherapy and the analyst has also been seeing my wife and me. The trouble seems to be that things come too easy to my children, and so, when a setback comes they can't take it. My daughter went into a depression because she was re fused admission to an acting class, and also because her favorite boy friend switched to another teen-ager. The an alyst traces our trouble with the kids to overprotection. I can lend Len the money if he insists. But as a father I'd be better off in his boots. If I try to make my children work for luxuries, they know It's just an act. The Council: Into each life some rain must fall, and does fall, Hugh. So you can lend Len that money without wor rying about his children grow ing soft. But your point about the uses of adversity is well taken. It should comfort Len when he must say honestly to his children, "I can't give you the money for that. Try to earn it yourselves." Conversely, Hugh has a tough time developing a sense of "can't-have" in his children, who may only see cussedness : in his refusals to pay up tor ! anything they want. Neverthe j less he must refuse in the in I tercsts of their optimum de- velopment. i Why? Because people who are never subjected to stress, i who are always sheltered and ghielded, are unable to build up important defenses and re sistance. Previously this was accepted as a theory for both physical and mental health. : Now cornea a physician with proof that in severe mental illness, a certain protective el- I ement in the blood is lacking. I Dr. Jacques Gottlieb of the Lafayette Clinic of Detroit, I Mich., has isolated a factor i called "ATP" which Is needed in the blood to respond to it re is. Schizophrenics, he finds, don't have it. His pres ent research Is based upon the idea that people who are never put to the "lest'' Just never build up anti- stress mechanisms. ' Having real, not phony, ob staclcs is an all-right condi tion, Len. Your children's may be financial. Hugh's emotion al. But facing them honestly ! is an essential first step to- j ward health. . On the value of lacks, we j offer an analogy. When inter viewed, one of America's lead ing landscape artists said that : he perfected the art of garden ing because he had grown tip i in "the sordidncss of a tree- j less existence." CHESTER A.
