SCHOOL BOYS

Bows are manhood in the making
years of training" it is true
MANY of them will soon be taklrS
Jobs now held by you.
While they go their ways unheedei
Criticized by you and me
Never given advice needed
Undesirables they will be
Boys are boys, but no need banding
Into gangs as of today
Why not give them understanding
Lest they go astray.
Child is adult in the shaping
IT'S so hard for us to see
All the paths that lead from child
hood
To our final destiny.

Charter Committee
Studies Lindsay Law

Should the Lindsay Law" be
repealed or amended? SIZE
This law prohibits the nomina-
ton or election of members of the
County Council on a non-partisan
ballot, and also prohibits any re-
strictions on eligibility for the
County Council except that such
candidates must be voters.
The 1914 Charter made State OF
County job holders, and members
of Congress ineligible for the
County Council while holding such
jobs. The President of the United
States was also made ineligible.
As the law now stands the Char
ter Committee cannot provide for
Eon-partisan election of members
of the County Council even though
every voter in Montgomery County
desired that method.
