b. • Red China has recently- tested another bomb, thought +•- be much more powerful than t .y other bomb taey have ever tested. Through tests of the radio- active cloud produced by this tomb the United States has found that itis no more power- ful then their previous bomb. The United States and the rest of the major powers in the - qrs terrified when Red Cnina ce3ts bombs. They are frightened to death that Red China might discover a bomb powerful enough to be able to wipe out entire countries, like vhe bombs that the United Slates, Great Eritain, and Russia already possess. Someday in the very near future Red China willpossess such a bomb, that can be mount- ed as a warhead on a missile and fired thousands of miles away with deadly accuracy. Red Chp na will soon possess as powerful as our's this is the inevitable. Why don't we want China to have such a tomb? We se.m to think that Red China will start a major war out of which no one will win. We seem to think that the Chinese see like children, and they are not to play with bombs. The Chinese are no more stupidtihen we are. Red China's science is speed- ing up and within the next very few years Red China will be as rowerful a nation as any on the face of the earth, and 1 be- lieve that they will be just as capable and careful of having such a dangerous weapon as we are.

Christmas is t’ everybody is happy ar . , and when we can share it all with others to make them fool they belong to someone and are felt wanted. Christmas is a time of giving so that- others may feel happy and have a wonderful Christmas and that their sad memories may be lost by Christ- mas carols and opening ;i- -- of joy. Jesus Christ was born on this wendorful day, Di.CLMFLR TWENTY FIFTH, in a littl ma.gcr in Bethlehem, and to cel-brate this wonderful occasion there were three wise men from afsr, who brought gifts to JL3U3 CHRIST of Gold. Poankinoonse,and iiyrrh. They followed a br: mt star abac shone from the north to find their way to him. And since the dayof Jesus Christ's birth, we all havo colei' cted Christmas in memory of him. And I have come to think t'st Christmas is thomest lire.- - t day of the yeer. Richard Bier - '67

Jo-Ann Sherrer '68 TEENAGE DRIVING It seems as though every- where you go, you hear the elderly psople saying, What is this world coming to, the way those teenagers drive. Now stop a minute and think. Do the teenagers really think the way you really think they do? A it eldorly couple are sitting in their living room watching television. They hear from outside a car taking a curve too fast, or somebody that is driving a little bit too fast through town and right off what is the first thing that comes into their mind? Oh, thats just a teen- ager racing around, Well, this is not so. It could just as well boa older person that has nothing to do but drink. He could jjst as well be the driver of the car, well intoxicated, because believe me some of them do get that way quite often. Grown-ups never stop and think that maybe if their son-V p , is a careless driver, that ne r be he could have learned this rtf frori the way his father or even A his mother, by 'rho T-r?y drive. A boy may be riding with his father and tbsy might come to a stop sign. The father doesn't stop, so the boy asVed his father why, and his father replies, Well son, I didn' t need to stop; there wasn't a cop around there. WeII what kind of an impression does this make on your son? What kind of a driver do you really think he's going to turn out to bo. Well I think we have a good many teenage drivers in this world, and I hope it can stay that way. Don't You?????
