MEDFOHO, Women's News Easily Breakable Toys Said Bad for Children By PATfllCIA MCCORMACK United Press International New York - rUPfi - Don't give youngsters easily break able toys, cautions the execu tive director of the Child Study Associ ation of Amer ica. Alfred D. Buchmuel ler says the parent who purposely gives a child easily break able toys and Patricia McCormack approves of their destruction as a so-called "healthy outlet for hostilities" is making a grave mistake. "Such an attitude is ap propriate only in the case of seriously disturbed children who are being clinically treat ed by professionals," he said. "It has no place in the home where normal children can and should be taught self-control." Buchmueller maintains it's lime parents return to the be lief in healthy self-restraint if children are lo grow up lo be normal, well - adjusted adults. Give Sturdy Toys To help thwart misdirected destructive tendencies i n youngsters, Buchmueller rec ommends toys of sturdy, sub stantial , materials - metal, wood or materials reinforced with metal. "A parent must distinguish between normal destructive ness as opposed to chronic or repetitive destructiveness, " the mental health educator noted. "Destructive impulses must be understood as well as curb ed. But you don't curb a child the way you rein a horse. The parent must use his best judgment as to whether disciplining lhe child will help or hinder his growth." He nolcd that the parent who allows destructiveness to build up, believing this is a healthy outlet in play, will see the child becoming more and more destructive since destructiveness feeds upon itself and becomes a habit. "A child knows a flimsy toy and instinctively resents it," Buchmueller said. "He is less likely to take care of it and indeed may willfully destroy it, thereby sowing the seeds of hostility and destructive ness." Sturdy, well-made toys are much more satisfying to a child because they are heav ier, more substantial and more realistic, according to Buchmueller. Satisfy Children He said youngsters find such toys more satisfying and are more easily persuaded to take care of them and learn the value of such care. "Larger, realistic toys also encourage group play," Buch mueller noted. "Young boys, for example, indulge in rough play. And two boys playing with a flimsy toy are almost certain lo break it." When selecting toys. Buch mueller suggested remember ing that youngsters enjoy imitating adults. By so doing they are able to channel their expression of thoughts and feelings about people and events that attract their at tention. Giving youngsters realistic reproductions of things his parents use, such as steel cars, planes and trucks for the boys and metal cooking utensils and appliances for the girls, is considered much more like- ly to stimulate imagination than less life-like copies. When a child breaks a loy accidentally. B u c h m u e Ucr said a parent should caution i against future roughness. I He attributes t he parental ! practice or giving free rein j lo a child's anti social feelings as a reaction lo Victorian over-restraint.

"Parents should help their children handle their destruc tive impulses and channel them in ways that are healthy and not unhealthy, Buch muellcr said. "A child should be control led so that he may learn to control himself."

There is no ceremony about it; they scatter down the steps in all directions in their cerise robes and hats. A few of them have cars awaiting them, and they depart the quickest; about 15 big buses carry off many of them. Some of the buses are re served for certain countries and have placards designating like Philippines, Brazil, etc. One bus had on the side "See Rome by Night," which look ed a bit odd with all the dig nity and color inside. Then many of the delegates walk. and as you stand outside the temporary fence, along with several hundred onlookers who go daily lo watch the show, you are close enough to appreciate the fact that you are seeing tne worm represented in this congress. Black, white, and various shades of brown pass by. There are bearded patriarchs - curly black beards, long white beards, and stylishly cut European beards. Some faces are benign, some beautiful -some not. There are fat, well fed priests, thin ones, tall and short ones. As they pass close lo you, you have the oppor tunity to see the beauty of their robes. Over the cerise robe they wear white linen trimmed and decorated with exquisite lace, fine embroi dery of every kind. Their socks, showing below their gowns, are cerise. Many Problems And you wonder, as you watch, what is the problem each is working on, and whether or not they have such questions of trivial and prick ly importance as have sen ators, and members of parlia ment. According to the press, the Holy fathers do not see eye to eye on many subjects. There are lhe conservatives and the liberals, and there is controversy over theological doc trincs. Pamphlets - in Latin - attack, for example, biblical research groups, chiefly Jesuits and Domini cans. Then there are differ ences of opinions regarding more mundane questions. If some of the bishops have their way, the Roman Catholic church will be rid of a cere L f jr e. - monial robe, originally meant for the rear of the bishop's horse. It is a great cape with flowing trains. The necessity for it has passed, the bishops argue. It had been worn lor a very practical reason - to keep the back of the horse dry, when the bishop was riding on a mission. And special stockings and sandals that are put on during pon tifical masses. There was a time when a bishop really had to change his foot gear afler travelling through snow or storms. There are apparently those for, and those against, such questions. Another argument being discussed and promoted by the Rev. Marsile of Rome, is that there should be more active participation among worshipers and more under standing of the Mass. He said "Protestants often understand the importance of the word of God better than we do," and he argued, and urged, better preaching to teach the faith ful the meaning of various as pects of ritual. "The altar, for example, is not a bureau for flowers, candles and priestly functions alone, but a table where all should gather for a banquet - the Lord's Supper." Changes Argued Other priests are urging using the language of the people in the Mass, the priest facing the people and not hav ing his back lo them, and that worshipers should receive both bread and wine. Archbishop D'Sousa, head of the Nagpur diocese, feels that the marriage ceremony should be tied in wilh local customs in countries where there are existing customs. For example, since a ring means nothing at all to people of India, they should follow their own belief, that a dish called "thalce" should be handed over by the husband In tlip wife Or thai in vnmp I places, a marriage knot should be tied - a woman's dress and man's apparel tied together. Some priests argue that the vernacular of the country be used because the meanings arc ; lost if said in Latin. One arch bishop (Vienna) stresses the necessity for bishops lo have more latitude in their region al leadership, greater tclx- ibilily and adaptability of the ; church. Pope Rules I Over all this rules the Pope, i and you wonder whether he "The Store of a Thousand Thoughtful Gifts" set High ichool, Beaverton, Ore., and secretary-treasurer of OAPHER for the year jest closed.

Certainly he. seems to have deviated from; custom more than any other" head of the church, by travel ing and visiting which he doci more and more. Cardinal-! Spellman of New York has invited Pope John to visit the United States. He gave tho invitation in a special audi ence with the United Stales bishops who are here for the council. The Pope gave his blessing and said ne was sorry he had never seen America. Cardinal Spellman said that he inviled him to come in 1964 to bless the Vatican pavilion at the World's Fair. The cardinal said that tho Pope seemed pleased but his reply was noncommital. No Pope has been outside Italy since 1804. The Ecumenical Conference has entered its sixth week. Although nothing of any hard and fast decrees or changes have been made, if it were to end today it would go into history as some what of a success, it is said here. a STOP LAWN WASHOUT STRAIN SPRED, NOTTHIS iA-d 1 PROTECT nVsi "Eaiumariaue i&folP-ift 1 ALUMINUM WICKET IWO" , uni OS TUBE. eeTBi I FOR ATTACHING.
