SEND A KID TO CAMP
You Can Help Shy Boy
Overcome His Fears

Larry's mother hovers over
him like a cloud.
She thinks she worships him,
but she is keeping him from be-
ing a little boy.
Sometimes. he acts more like
a frightened adult instead.
Mrs. Wilson is a hypochron-
driac. always worried about her
health. and communicates her
fears to Larry, who is 9. She
worries about his food. she wor-
rieS about his clothing, she wor-
ries if she doesn't know where
he is every minute. she worries
about everything. AS a result.
Larry is cautious about himself
He worries. too.
Yet he still tries new things
although he's a little slower
about it than the other boys.
He wants to learn 10 swim
he did, that is. until he nearly
drowned last year after he got
into water over his head. He
was given artificial respiration,
had water pumped out of him,
and was taken to a hospital.
Afraid Since
He has been afraid to try to
swim ever since. He still goes
in the water, but he is naturally
very wary of it. Mrs. Wilson S
own fears were increased by the
incident. She has done nothing
TO encourage him to overcome
his fear.
Mrs. Wilson isn't sure she
wants Larry to go to camp. But
Larry wants to GO. 1t could help
him in many ways. A wise
teacher may be able to over
come his well-founded fear Of
the water, and teach him to
swim. And he will have the
companionship of men coun-
sellers, as he does at the COM
munity house he attends. Larry
needs this compromising des-
perately. His father deserted
long ago.
Security is something Larry
doesn't know much about. There
are always food shortages at
home, and near-evictions. And
there is his mothers anxiety for
herself and for him, that makes
the world look like a pretty scary
place.
A Shy Child
Larry is a shy child. But those
at the community house who
know him are encouraged
enough by his response there to
feel that camp will be a good ex-

Stevenson Takes Crushing Defeat
 With a Smile

CHICAGO, R--Adlai E. Ste venson took his second crushing defeat at the hands of Dwight D. Eisenhower today with a smile on his face and a quip on his lips.
 It wasn't that it didn't hurt-he frankly confessed his disappoint- ment before a nationwide TV audience-but you could tell he had known for days how it would all turn out.
 But, he told hundreds of dis heartened Stevenson volunteers damned into the big Hotel Con rad Hilton ballroom-and millions who watched on their TV sets "our cause will ultimately pre- vail"
 Would he try for the presidency again?
 I'm a candidate for bed,' he re- sponded lightly to the reporters query.
 His more formal note was sounded shortly after midnight when he left his suite at the Sher- atom Blackstone Hotel and walked across the street to the Conrad Hilton to tell hundeds of mourn full followers:
 "To you who are disappointed tonight, let me confess that I am, too. But we must not be disheart- ened, for there is radiance and glory in the darkness, could we but see, and to see, we have only to look"
 A burst of applause welled up over the ballroom. Women wept openly. Men got out their hand kerchiefs and blew their noses furiously.

Fish and Wildlife Service Has Been Reorganized

WASHINGTON, R-Secretary of the Interior Seaton Monday an- nounced reorganization of the Fish and Wildlife Service as di- rected by a 1856 law. He said the changes became effective as of the close of business Monday.
 Seaton said appointments have not been made to the two new top-level positions created by the new law--assistant secretary for fish and wildlife and commission CT for fish and wildlife. Both ap- pointments are to be made by the President, subject to Senate con firmation.
 Two separate bureaus were ere ated. the Bureau of Sport Fisher ies and Wildlife, with John L. Farley as acting director, and the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries, with Arnie J. Suomela as acting director.
 Farley has been director and Suomela associate director of the old Fish and Wildlife Service.
 The reorganization is the first major action of that nature to be undertaken since the Bureau of Biological Survey and the Bureau of Fisheries were combined in 1940 to form the Fish and Wildlife Service.

The Chamber of Commerce had another of their stimulating and interesting meeting yesterday noon with several important guests.
