Every newspaper headline makes it clear that this is a testing time for Americans. The Cuban crisis is one of a long and con tinuing series of challenges we face. At a time of challenge, the American future depends upon the American people: what we think, what we do, how we rise as individuals to the task of meeting great challenge with great achievement. We each have a part to play. Yours is described in the timely new citizen action guide "Challenge to Americans" of fered here which puts the crisis of the moment in the true perspective of the struggle which is likely to continue for years. The world situa tion is far more complex than the emergencies of daily headlines. As President Kennedy says: "We are challenged by the revolution of communism. The Communists seek power through conspiracy, terror, aggression and deceit. They exploit and corrupt legitimate revolutionary forces, scavenging on poverty, ignorance, despair. "And also we are challenged by the revolution of hope in con .inents long captive to stagnation and despair. "We are challenged by the revolution in science and tech nology bringing new boons and new dangers to humanity. "We are challenged by the revolution in international relation ships. Nation has begun to work with nation to solve mankind's common problems. New international bodies are exploring un charted paths of world cooperation in the interests of world wide peace, Justice, In an age of revolution, we dare not forget that we "We must match great challenges striving (or excellence in all things. With a mature understand ing of the magnitude, complexity, and probable long duration ol the struggle we face. Let each ol us re solve to do something extra tor our country in this period ol trial." frtudent John F. Kennedy UntuuK Contest Winners in Eagle Point Noted Eagle Point - A joint proj ect by Ted Hoffman and his mother-in-law, Mrs. Clifford Hickson, 40 and 44 West Third St., won first place in the Eagle Point Christmas lighting contest. This is the second year Hoffman and Mrs. Hickson have won the contest. The decoration consisted of a log church surrounded by a rail fence, with a star shining over it. The Nativity scena also was included. Second place winner was Mrs. U O. Poguc, South B st., with a Nativity scene of nearly life-size figures. The Glenn Hale family, 35 West Sixth st., won third place. This was also a Nativity scene, incorporated in a Christmas scene which includ ed a large Santa Claus figure and angels. Mrs. R. L. Cowden, 411 South C St., was awarded hon orable mention. Her home was decorated with Christmas greenery and symbols. Judges for the contest were Mrs. Don Anderson, John Graves, and Edwin Hayes. Ray Ragsdale was chairman of the lighting contest com mittee. INCENTIVE TO WIN London - mill - Bedworlh Bennion, 25, a human "polar bear" who won the flSlth swim in Serpentine Lake, said he was motivated by the thought that "the quicker I swim the sooner I'll be out of this." The air temperature at race time was 33 degrees.
