ON THE SCENIC NORTH SANTIAM HIGHWAY — OREGON’S FAST GROWING VACATION WONDERLAND MMBEK 9 VOLUME XXV Up and Down The Avenue By Don Moffatt 1 It seems that about all you hear these days about our younger generation are bad things and for that reason it gives me great pleasure this week to say something on the brighter side. It brings into sharp focus that not all young people are hoodlums. We have many thousands of good wholesome young folks who are desirous of getting the best education our schools can offer. Recently a group of the Seattle Liberation Front a lestist outfit staged a viol ent two-hour demonstration and caused some $30,000 worth of damage in the downtown area. They had bn: ken win dows and smeared paint on the federal courthouse. They should be ashamed of them selves, and not only that, they should be forced to pay for every bit of damage caused, even if they were put in camps and required to do rea! hard labor. But the bright part of the affair was when some 20 stu- dents from Queen Anne high school gathered to help clean up the mess. One of the stu dents who organized the group said “that kind of violence made me mad. I d:n’t believe in that kind of dissent.” This just proves to me that only a small minority of our students are of a type that wid deliberately destroy property. Let us hope the “good” young people will band t:gether and put these bums to shame, and eventually maybe we can get on with the business of edu cation without disruption from a few odd balls.
