and mostly east of the Allegheny
Mountains; inhabits streams, lakes
and ponds, and fresh tidal waters
in Maryland. A popular game fish
in the tidal waters of Baltimore,
Anne Arundel, Hartford and Cecil
Counties; found throughout the
State.
DESCRIPTION: A dark green and
yellow elongated fish with a
mouthful of sharp teeth; dark lines
on sides forming "links" from
which it derives the name "chain

tirely covered with scales which
distinguishes it from its close
relative the Northern Pike (Esox
lucius) which has scales only on
about half the gill cover. Average
size about pounds; fish of 5
pounds or over are rare; has more
bones than average fresh water
fish.

the teaching of old world back
our neighbors North, South, East
and West; it provides time to study
problems arising from our living
in democratic nation, and it pro-
vides time for the study Of youth
problems and for youth guidance.
With such a program in effect
am prone to remark that pupils
graduating from our schools should
know something about history, and
if they fail to do so the schools
can hardly be held accountable.
Now, let me comment upon an
other statement in your editorial
taken from "This Week" magazine,
concerning the neglect of text
books to recount Americas heroic
episodes and gallant words. | hap
pened to visit a ninth grade class
room at Southern High school last
week where the children were
studying American History. The
special assignment given by the
teacher was to challenge the ac-
curacy of the article in This
Week." and go through the history
textbooks used in the school to see
how many of them recounted the
famous quotes of famous men. The
children were reporting on their
findings while l was in the room,
and were doing so enthusiastically.
This Week" magazine will have
some explaining to do, but | shall
not steal the thunder from this
group of ninth grade pupils as l
think you will get a report from
them when their study has been
completed.
There is one other phase of citi-
zenship education that | have pom
dered a great deal. What is this
thing we call citizenship? Just
what is the relationship between
the study of history and good citi-
Izenship? Will the program of social
studies as outlined in this letter
guarantee good citizenship on the
part of all Garrett County high
school graduates | think not. To
me. good citizenship is not only al
legiance to our government, it is
much more than this. The good citi-
zen is the person who possesses the
qualities of courage, honesty, 10y
atty, industry, concern for others,
cooperation, patriotism. and service
above self. In developing these
qualities it is my honest opinion
that the schools are doing far
better job today than ever before.
AS | visit classrooms and schools
across this county | see good citi-
zens in all of them. | see them on
the athletic field, in the gymnasi-
Ium, in the school assembly, running
the Student Council, in the Honor
Society, winning awards in F. F.
A., writing the school newspaper,
reading good books in the library,
collecting science specimens, work
ing as hall monitors, putting up art
displays, singing in glee clubs,
PLAYING in bands, baking cake.
working a math problem or pre-
pairing for a banquet. Yes, these
are fine young citizens learning to
give and take, getting the kind of
training that makes good citizens.
This matter of teaching good citi-
zenship is an experience process,
and as important as the study of
history is, good citizenship just
doesn't jump out of the history
book. 1t must be developed and our
schools, meaning our teachers, are
doing a mammoth Job of develop
ing it.
Very sincerely,
Willard l.. Hawkins,
Superintendent of Schools

they would like to discuss some
things with him as they believe he
would answer their questions it
certainly shows that Mr.. Bitter
must be a good listener with an
understanding expression.
There are always two sides TO
every situation and fighting is
never the right solution to any
problem whether local, national or
international. 1t is a difficult age
in which to teach boys that fight
ing is wrong when they see, hear
and read so much about constant
wars among adults and know that
after high school they must go in
to the service to be taught to
fight.
Adults have fought over a GER
tain obscene name for years and
other adults have stood by watch
ing the fights. Can we expect our
youth to react differently?
| have a number of questions
about the words undisciplined and
hoodlums- now. Would you say a
boy is undisciplined if he had to
have permission to go places, was
required to be in at reasonable
hour and had met the requirements
Is a boy undisciplined and a hood
lum when in 1112 years of school
ing he has had a good attendance
record and has only had difficulty
with one classroom teacher. If the
recreation of boys consists of TV,
playing records, reading books, at
tending movies, ball games, a few
dances and in playing ball with
other boys and labels them hood
lums and undisciplined, then l
know some hoodlums, my boy is a
hoodlum and am a hoodlum
mother.
l believe in checking occasional
ly upon the places youth attend as
adults are supervised or period
ically checked when on a job. l
haven't done this because | didn't
trust my boy because | do not in
tend to distrust and disbelieve any
youth until | have reasons.
One boy who was taken from
school and who fought with the
other boy has been coming to my
home for at least eight years and
has always proved himself to be
a gentleman in my home.
When you hear boys say after
discussing problems with them that
the are thankful for your under
standing and advice let's try to
help them face those problems and
not accuse them unjustly
Let's give recognition to some
of the people in our community who
are interested in youth and are do
ing something for them such as
Rev. John j. Atwell, who in my es-
timation is a wonderful asset to
our youth and community.
Boys, girls, parents, teachers,
lawyers and everyone make mis-
takes. 1t is little" person who
can brag and boast but it takes a
big" person to admit he or she
has made a mistake.
Let's face facts. This is the most
difficult age of all times and we,
as adults, don't know all the
answers. Our schools are good
schools and we must constantly
work for better understanding and
relationship with youth. | only
wish Oakland High school, when
| attended it, would have been
nearly as good in every way as
Southern High school is. We had
about one third the enrolment,
worse problems and as many as
exist today with the large enroll
ment.

To the Editor:

q lnC EulIOIs
Are we being Communistic with
our youth today?
There is no one believes in youth
being disciplined, given privileges
and direction in their problems
of growing up or teen-age with as
fair understanding as possible than
| do. 1t is the most problematic
time of their life.
Parents are supposed to be re-
SponSible for their children until
they become of age. Why should
boys be taken from school then
without them being previously no
titled and without their parents be
ing notified that they are not il
school when the parents knew they
were in school, Why weren't the
parents of the boys notified Of the
hearing and requested to be present
or given the opportunity to be
present. Why weren't all of the
boys who were by-standers ques-
toned? Why couldn't all of the
boys have been interviewed and
facts obtained before a hearing?
Why did some untrue things have
to be published in the newspaper?
If it was to be published, why
couldn't the facts have been OBJ
tanned first? Naturally, boys and
girls have many questions and
they are taught to do critical
thinking. Court rooms and hearings
are new to them and let's realize
they have many questions and try
to answer them instead of saying
they are arrogant because they
want to know. If all of this isn't
Communistic procedure | don't
know what is.
l might sound arrogant about
all of this because | don't think it
is the right way to handle youth.

Letter To The Editor
A Mothers Viewpoint

10 the Editor:
Being the mother of a so called
'hoodlum," / would like to take
this method of expressing, through
! the press, my sentiment of last
weeks ugly and malicious criticism
of my son and the other boy who
was indirectly involved in a fist
fight over childish and youthful
''name-calling."
| am of the opinion that we are
living in a civilized town, and while
not actually encouraging my son
to fight with his schoolmates, | do
feel that any person, despite his
standing in our community, should
be able to defend himself, and that
what he believes to be an insult to
one very near and dear to him.
| am not a mother who believes
her son incapable of doing wrong.
My son and yours are human, and
as long as humanity exists there
will be misunderstanding. Up I'M
til this episode, my son has never
run afoul of the laws of our coun-
try. and to be blamed for things
which have taken place in the past,
and in which he had no part, is
to me an injustice. | have in the
past, and will in the future, en-
deavor to raise my son to do what
is considered right; but | will not
condemn him for defending the
ideal that he has concerning his
moral standards.
Billy admitted that he, and he
alone, struck the other boy. No
holding was done except for a
friend holding his jacket and watch.
Neither was there any so called
matching Of coins" to see who was
going to hold the other boy and
who was to do the beating. Decid-
ing on a subject like that doesn't
have the earmarks of gangster
tactics. Gangs usually pick their
victims, and they all do the at
lacking.
l, along with the mother of the
accused boy, am sorry, too, that
we were not even notified of the
time of the hearing that was called
before a magistrate to try our sons.
If there is to be a curbing of jul
venile activities in this, or any
town. | believe parents should be
called upon to help.
There have been many rumors
since this episode became public
knowledge. Rumors that | was I'M
able to discipline my son, that he
was incapable of knowing how to
be a good boy. l know that Billy
and his friends who are constant
visitors in our home are always
kind, considerate, trustworthy and
honorable. The unnamed "other
boy" in the case has been Billy's
friend since they were seven or
eight years old. and l hope their
friendship continues through their
adult life.
We have been lifelong respect
able law-abiding residents of Oak
land, and we hope to continue liv-
ing here. But if certain people in
sist on maliciously attacking his
and other good boys regulations,
have pODfj6nnop in nc nc ngrpptc
