An Editorial
EDUCATION LOCAL RESPONSIBILITY

worried parent recently wrote Mrs. Oveta CuP Hobby
Secretary of Health Education and Welfare expressing deep
community apathy toward local school problems
especially those of budgetay nature. In election involving
desperately needed school taxes the writer observed that
There II box contrast TO the
votes during the last presidential election
And neighbohood of young marrieds Mrs Hobby
federal officer then asked to do something about the
situation.
The TO plea of this kind should be painfully clear
Local initiative local responsibility and local pride things
that be established by fiat bought with federal
money Turning the federal government to solve local prob
lens is deadly process for people who value freedom 1t is
suicidal in The of education.
As Mrs. Hobby warns, "Our public schools began in our
local communities they must stay there +he Federal Gov
interfere in educational matters which r9hy
belonq TO the local and State authorities"

Races Sunday, Oct. 10th,
AT Delmar RaceWay

Determine, the Kentucky Derby
winner, and High Gun, hero Of the
Belmont Stakes, the two best
three-year-olds in America, will
represent the United States in the
third Washington, d. c., Interna-
tiOnal at Laurel Race Course on
November 3rd
The appearance Of these two
thoroughbred stars at Laurel
means that Maryland will be the
scene of a race which is shaping
up as the racing attraction Of the
year. Added to Determine and High
Gun will be Queen Elizabeth's Lam
dau and King of the Tudors from
England and Zarathustra from Ire
land Two French horses, one of
which probably will be the Prix
de la Arc d'Triomphe winner, Sica
Boy. will be known later this week.
The committee of newspapermen
which selected the American-bred
horse named Determine, owned by
Andrew j. CrevOlin of Alhambra.
California, today after picking
King Ranch's High Gun late last
week.
The alternates for the S65. 900
mile and a half invitational race
will be Jaelyn Stables Closed Door
and Stanley MikelIs Brush Burn.
If there is need for an alternate,
the committee will meet again and
vote on the replacement.
AT present. CrevOlin is under
suspension by the California Rae
ing Board and none of his horses
will be allowed to race until the
ban is lifted on October Both. But
both CrevOlin and Trainer Willie
MOlter, in accepting the invitation,
feel that Determine will be ready
to race the mile and a half of the
International on November Srd.
With ImbrOs and Allied and sew
eral other good three-year-olds at
his command to act as training
companions, Molter is Of the opin-
ion that he has no need to race the
gray son of Alibhai into condition
for LaurePs WOrld-famOus classic.
In addition to the Derby, Deter
mine won the San Gabriel, the San
Felipe, the San Anita Derby, the
San Jose Handicap, the Peter
