reach out to one's fellowman

shrivels up. 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.

Attitudes Against Media Editorials Breaks Into Open

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. In addi
tion, the so-called "equal
time" rule requires that all
political candidates be af-

a worm, or a bug and stuff
it down his throat, when she
might better have eaten it
herself.
"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.
He indicated that the subcon
mittee will look into this.
The basis for Wednesday
comment on the floor was the
House's debate and passage of ! presidential campaigns. A
a measure to suspend the similar waiver in 1960 per
"equal time" rule for the mitted the four televised Ken
1964 presidential and vice nedy-Nixon debates.
