IN MEMORY . . . NE OF THE BASIC FREEDOMS of the American citizen and an insurance against oppression is the freedom to bear arms. We of this generation, '-., however, have witnessed a tragic abuse of this freedom, the assassination of President John F. Kennedy on the autumn afternoon of November 22, 1964, by Lee Harvey Oswald. Who can say for certain what were the motives that forced this deranged man to kill another? All we know is that the monstrous deed was done and a great man has died. In school on that warm afternoon, all was going normally, until the news that the President had been shot broke. At first only apprehension was felt, but later, when we learned of the President's death, the apprehension turned into anger, sorrow, and, in some, into the nervous laughter that is a symptom of shock. Down deep we knew that a truly great man of our times had been brutally assassinated, and only the distance and the sense of incredulity kept us from tears. Because even as we watched on television the events that followed, even as we listened to the radio, even as we read the newspapers, the ramifications of the deed remained unreal to us, and life progressed normally for us. Except that our President was dead. We had elected him our leader, and lead he did. His will alone shaped our policy, both domestic and foreign, for three years, and his powerful personality is still felt in the government. His will to win carried us through the Cuban crisis and his iron determination forced the Russians from the island. He infused a new feeling of vitality and democracy into our tiring country, and now he is dead. Whatever great goals he might have realized, whatever conquests he might have made, we shall never have a chance to know. One crazed man had the power to do this to our country, and this is one of the risks of democracy, the ieopardy our leaders are in. John F. Kennedy would have wanted it kept this way, and indeed he died for it. It is our iob now to carry on where our great President left off, and not to let his death be in vain. We must remember him, for it is this commemoration of greatness and right under the eyes of man that has brought this country to the soaring heights of freedom and democracy it possesses. President John Fitzgerald Kennedy must be remembered.
