Modoc Council Area IT ha i been suggested by inference that the so-called underprivileged" youngster is not being reached by the nationally-known youth organizations such as the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Camp Fire Girls and others. In particu lar it has been pointed out that these organiza tions do not and cannot reach this group of youngsters in their organized summer camps. More particularly, this has been stated about boys' camps. Allow me to clarify some thinking, point out a few facts, and offer a suggestion with the sola purpose of encouraging all adults to spend more jiours with youngsters. ;, First, present-day youth organizations CAN and DO reach the underprivileged youngster both in their year-round program and in their summer camps. True, no group distinction or class distinction is made because of the so called "underprivileged"' but there are dozens of youngsters who attend these camps with the cooperation of men and women who serve on local group committees. Facts and figures on such cases can be obtained from any of the youth agencies. Must Be Interested SECOND, before you can get a youngster into a summer camp or into year-round character-building program of any kind, you must interest him. The American way of reaching him is through volunteer citizens who give of Boyle's Column More Child Raising Advice Flows From Columnist's Pen By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK. Dec. 18 WV- Most young couples planning ahead for a family want a boy instead of a gin. As an unprejudiced observer o the parentnood scene, this al' ways has amazed me. I think the only thing harder to raise than a good boy is a baby gorilla With the mumps. How long does a boy really belong to you? Five, maybe six years. Then for ten years he la a savage, and for the next five years after that a oallow intro- . vert with mental growing pains. And then he blossoms forth and belongs to the world and to himself. But he really hasn't belonged to you since the day his first tooth was knocked out. He has only been liberating. So it has been since Adam and his ex-rib got the eviction notice from Eden that began the worm s housing shortage. But you take a baby girl. 'Mr. and Mrs- you got something! You don't find . her playing hookey to go to a burlesque ffhow, scrawling rude words on the sidewalk, or using telephone poles as duck pins for the fam ily s only car. Mother's Helper By nature she becomes moth. er s helper to learn her own future trade of housewife, and she practices her childhood wiles on the old man, thus giving that misunderstood hero of the hearth the little attentions that mama gave him before she discovered he was a pretty good mealticket put a lousy understudy of Val entino. But many modern parents are breaking up this age-old normal Sattern, and in these families ttle sister is growing up in the image 01 junior. Now if I had a daughter Without turnine her into a clothes horse, I would teach her that the most abominable sight in the eyes of civilized man and a big cause of divorce Is a sloppy, untidy woman. I would give her the back of the hairbrush if she ever screeched or yammered. I'd give her as a goal Shakespeare's Cordelia: "her voice was ever sweet and low." I would make only one exception when she laughed. A woman with a real belly laugh can shake a king's heart, and certainly will never die an old maid. As soon as her fingers were nimble. I'd have her taught how to cook and to sew her own clothes. I'd see that she learned something of art and music and how to paddle a canoe and put en a bandage. I'd make her wear her hair fn braids until we both got tired of it. But the day she cut her hair short she would become her mother's daughter not mine. . I'd let her go out on her first date alone during her third year v in high school, and I'd pray that the young ape who escorted her had buck teeth. (Don't spread your wings all at once, baby, you have to fly a long way.) I'd want her to be as feminine as Eve and as witty as Becky WEDNESDAY EVE, KFLW 1450 ke. :M Masle of Manhattan :I5 Hera Twn News :33 World News Bammirr' :MPol of Gold ABC :45 . 1:00 Memorable Mnilc 7:l5Manaclni Editors Report 7:3o Klamath Theatre Guide Pe I lean a too Lam N A brier ABC ft:1A Symphony ( Melody :M Affairs Ann ffrotland ABC :M Bing Crosby ABC ' J:JBnr)f Mo realty A BO 1o!oo Stardust Melodies 10:.1 Ambassador Orch.

I'd hope to Halifax everybody thought she was pretty and nobody ever con vinced her she was beautiful. I would never want her to look forward to any permanent career except marriage. But I'd insist she be able to earn her own living at something. Pre ferably being a private secretary No other job so enlightens women on how helpless men really are. And. besides, it's good training for organizing and running a home. And. besides that, I think a -woman who has worked in business appreciates more fully the pleasures of stay ing home. I'd give my consent a lot that would probably matter! to her marrying anybody except a man who drank every day. But I'd encourage her to marry the nicest rich man she could fall in love with. After all the dough and worry she cost me, I should have some thing tc: look forward to in my old age besides social security. Rocket Sets New Record WHITE SANDS, N. M., Dec. 18 (JP) A German V-2 rocket, trail ing a long string of white fire, soared comet-luce to a record ill miles into the heavens last night, but its man-made meteorites were so puny they eluded most eyes. A scientific evaluation of the meteorites experiment awaits de velopment of film from cameras, some 300 of which were trained here and over the southwest on the heavens over this southern New Mexico ordnance proving ground. The rocket shoot itself was termed the best so far by Lt. Col. Harold R. Turner, White Sands commandant. -v. Not only did the 14-torTmissile crack the July 30 altitude record of 104 miles, but also it estab lished a new speed of 5350 feet per second more than a mile a second and about five times the speed of sound. Two of the scientific observers at White Sands reported seeing the meteoritesdime size slugs of metal which were expected to oe wnite hot when they were shot from the rocket and to burn on passing through denser at mosphere nearer the earth.

There are other it Mr. Hitler tried one himself but the volunteer way is the American way. You can't draft or coerce a boy or girl into a summer camp the best way is for them to be a part of a year-round group that goes together when summer arrives. Third, it is not wise to set up groups of youngsters either in camp or in year-round croups as "underprivileged" organizations. It aid not work out during depression days to pauperize youngsters by sending them outright to such places except as expert social workers found extreme poverty, malnutrition, etc. Boy Scout troops, for example, found it much better to arrange work opportunities, special fund securing projects and other means of enabling the boys to help themselves to the full extent possible. The Reason WHY aren't more youngsters In these organ izations? There is only one reasdn. There aren't enough adults willing to give up a few adult pleasures and activities to work with them. Boy Scout membership in this or any other area could double in the next six months if enough men would actually take a little time with boys. If there were enough sponsor ing groups such as clubs, churches, lodges, and other adult organizations to back these groups of youngsters, the Juvenile delinquency rate would crash downward. So far as I know, thU is the only answer. We already have the organizations, we al ready have the camps, we already have the finances to reach many, many more youngsters. The bottleneck is in the scarcity of men and women who cealize that this is the solution and are willing to arrange some hours with the boys and girls of their neighborhood. I hope this will clarify thinking on the at tainments of currently operating youth agen cies. I realize the importance of the home situa tion today, but have purposely avoided its men tion here in order to reply to the inference stated above. The World Today By 3. M. ROBERTS JR. AP Foreign Affairs Analyst Just as Russia's actions in the recent New York conferences seemed to reduce the barriers between her and the western nations, so something seems to be happening to alleviate the fears of her immediate neigh bors. Some months ago Iran was reduced to a quivering jelly I while her dispute with Russia was before the UN security ' council. She practicaly repudi-' a ted her own representative here, and made a hurried deal with the Soviet rather than pur sue the contest despite indica tions of victory. Now, suddenly, the Tehran government is emboldened to re take the northern province of Azerbaijan which had been al most a country unto itself, be cause of wartime Russian occu pation and later because of a Moscow-inspired local -' govern ment. In addition, Tehran's troops are mopping up centers of the Kurdish independence move ment which also was declared by some of its own leaders to have had Russian support even to the supply of arms. Iran moved without fear of Russian intervention. Even the Moscow radio has had little to say. A little farther west, Turkish officials have begun a campaign against what they termed "sub versive" elements in European Turkey. The army is moving in firm fashion. In Greece, too, the government has consistently intimated that Russia was behind her insurgent troubles. But now one Greek partisan group, which was re ported fighting for autonomy in Macedonia, denies this is their objective. They say they are fighting only for political rights and adoption of some of their precepts by the central govern ment. This group repudiates the leftist EAM and the Macedonian national liberation front, which the central government fears as the agents of Sovietized Europe. Here, then, are three small groups which suddenly feel em boldened to thumb their noses at the Kremlin. Turkey, of course, has been firm all the time against Russian encroachment. dui at tne same time she has been, until now, very polite. And the Greek thing is minor. i out here, suddenly, we have evidence that the Kremlin frown does not carry all the weight it did a short time ago. we can only speculate as to why, the same as we did about the recent softening of Russian policy in the UN. JJo the small neiehbors knnw of events within Russia herself which hold her attention to the exclusion of matters outside her own borders?

Is there more than we are told to the "purge" which has been taking place in the name of efficiency in the Soviet administrative set-up? Could it be that Kremlin circles really are busy building personal fences in preparation for the end of Stalin's active rule? Or could it be what the world has been working and praying for that Russia is really begin ning to cooperate, that she finds some of her pet foreign projects are so widely opposed as to make them unprofitable, that for the sake of better world relations she is willing to backtrack a little even from points whera she feels she has rights?
