Geraldine can't bear to sit back and see what Felice's withdrawal from life is doing to her and to her children. We applaud her "nagging," for it keeps her sister from sinking completely into the unhealthy quagmire of self-pity, self - dramatiza tion, and self-indulgence. If only for her children's sake, she must get back on the beam of human give-and-take. . . Both sisters will be glad to know that there's a chapter of Parents Without Partners, Inc., in Felice's community. It welcomes women like Fe lice, as well as those teen agers, as members. They'd re ceive guidance and enjoy Sat urday bowling, Sunday pic nics, holiday tours-all aimed at instilling a comfortable feeling of "belonging." Mourning is Important, Felice, but so is high noon. Geraldine N. - Three years of mourning is enough. Folic T. - My interest in social life died with my hus band. a a Goraldin N. - I'm disgust ed with my sister. She's only 40 and hag two teen-age chil dren, yet she acts like 90-and some BO-year-olds have more oomph than she. We can't get her out of her home except to go marketing. She says she wants to be alone with her memories of her husband -she's turning the home into a funeral parlor. Felic T. - I've always been a quiet person. Any social life I had was inspired by my hus band, and had meaning to me only as his wife and compan ion. Now I don't fit in any where - our married friends don't need a widow around to cheer them up, and I've lost touch with the unmarried folk I knew from school days. Gerry should stop nagging me. a e e Tha C o u n e i li When the Good Book warns that "it is not good for man to be alone," it means women and children too, of course, and it expounds a vital rule for mental health.

' Attitudes Against Media Editorials Breaks Into Open ar .... . . ... .... ., .1 ...wnm.i Wn,iuc rlphate nnrl rjassaze of! Dn Washington - ITU - Congres sional feeling against radio and television editorializing broke into the open Thursday with announcement of an in vestigation of the practice starting July IS. The hearings, to be con ducted by a House subcommit tee, are expected to last for about a week. Politicians and broadcasters will testify. Government offi cials probably will be called too. The Federal Communica tions Commission (FCC) in re cent years has been encour aging stations to editorialize on the ground that it could elevate the quality of pro gramming. But apparently many politi cians - especially those in of fice - are upset at what they feel is an abuse of the privi lege. During debate in the House Wednesday on a related mat ter, several members de nounced broadcast editorializ ing. The criticism was intense at times. Rep. John Bennett, (R Mich.) said "there are broad casters who criticize one party and defend another, who crit icize one candidate and defend another, all under the guise of editorializing." Rep. Harley Staggers (D- W. Va.) spoke of the "unfair tactic" of broadcasters, who he said allowed attacks on an office holder but did not allow him free time to reply. During the debate Com merce Committee Chairman Oren Harris (D-Ark.) said one of his sub committees would start hearings on the subject July IS. Received Complaints Rep. Walter Rogers (D-Tex.), chairman of the subcommit tee, said he has received at least 20 complaints from con gressmen of both parties. Under the FCC's "general fairness" doctrine, broadcast ers are supposed to seek out comment from both sides of controversial issues.

"H the three blucjay babies torn to this doting mother only junior, the biggest of the brood, insisted on hanging to her apron strings. Of the three, he was the one that re mained dependent. His two nest-mates hunted their own food, asked nothing of mother and had in fact, just about adjusted to a life of their very own. Freeloader Junior, the freeloader, like his human counterpart that asks for and demands more than he wants to give in re turn, insisted on accompany ing mother wherever she went, mouth open, wings drooping and quivering with nervous frenzy. If mother hap pened to be a little slow on food giving, he would literal ly stamp his feet, and come very close to emitting a piti ful whimper. Junior had developed thla wing-quiver to a high degree) of perfection, a universal sig' nnl, on the part of the young bird that activates the mothtr to drop whatever food she has into the hungry mouth. The big lummox, "lazy as a pet coon, wanted an easy life; perfectly willing to eat with out lifting a feather to feed himself; dependent on his par cnts in spite of the fact he was bigger than either of them. Always, that wide open mouth, with its red lining, and the quivering wings, melted mother jay, and she babied her big son by acquiescing to his demands. Had No Sham Other jay mothers in the neighborhood looked askance at junior, each probably think ing to herself what she would do if she had such a good-for-nothing son. But junior had no shame, and mother jay was apparently too much a mother to put her foot down and in- sist on him being a grown-up j bird. i Perhaps Mrs. Jay heard some of the bird-gossip, with so many wagging tungucs she could hardly help hearing, for I one day her patience ran out. The decision came one bright summer afternoon. She was hungry and worms that day were in short supply. She had only found three in as many hours, and her sponger-son had begged them all away. Up till t n e n, she had no thought of rebelling, but he was quivering his wings and pleading, when she hauled off and socked him with her wing. She whipped him sound ly. Junior screamed in shocked surprise. Mr Jay Joined the melee, adding his two cents worth, and got in a couple of licks himself. Junior, h i s feathers ruffled, his ego shat tered, flew up into the leafy top of a tree. Somehow he knew the parly was over. He know the apron string had par led and he was now on his own He knew he must depend on his own resources, for birds, like most humans must realize that a time comes when the home ties are severed. forded equal broadcast time Rogers said there was a "gray area" as to the legal ap plication of these two rules.
