8 D THURSDAY, JULY 11. 1963 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON Listened to Wrong Tunes But Got An 'A' in Music By JOSEPH FLEMING Berlin IUPD Joern L e h mann, 16-year-old member o the Communist Youth Orga nization, got an "A" in mu sic but he is failing civics because he listened to the wrong tunes. Lehmann turned on hii transistor radio in the school yard at recess. As a result he was threatened with ex nulsionl from East Berlin'i Rahnsdorf High school and he got his photograph in the newspaper. Joern lists his hobby as music and it was a music pro gram that got him in trouble cast doubt on the political re liabilitv of his friends and even of the school branch of the "Free German Youth. If it had been just music Joern played during recess, he would have been okay But he played "NATO music." No Such Thing Now there really Is no such thing as "NATO music." Joern's radio did not play a song called the "NATO March" or anything like that What he did was tune in to a Western radio stat' s mu sic program. And Western music is "NATO music," the Communist Youth newspaper Young World said In a story about Joern, Whether the program Is music or cooking hints, East Germans are not supposed to lisen to Western stations. The Communists fear news and political programs might be heard, too. Young World reported Joern did not err through ignorance. . "The revanchist role of the NATO stations had been dis cussed in class" the news paper said. School principal Erlcr, who warned Joern that one more western station would mean expulsion, said Joern and other students had been given adequate instruction on the dangers of listening to Western stations in civics class. Not only Joern but many of his classmates were in dis grace. They stood around Joern and listened to the mu sic without taking action, the newspaper said. "I am disappointed with the Communist youths in the class," said Erlcr. "In the civics class they give the right answers but outside they let things take their course." The incident would appear to be minor and hardly worth the space Young World de voted to it, three-quarters of a page in an eight-page tabloid. But the Communists know that Joern and his class mates are not exceptions Youth still has not been won ovc. despite 17 years of Com munist rule. In school youths pay lip service to Communist ideas to get passing marks and keep out of trouble. But Erler said, outside they do as they please.
