CONSTANTINE BROWN
Officials Found Worried That Allies
Won't Stand Firm Against Soviet

Washington is besieged be-
fore he has time to ask his
own questions. with queries
about who will be the next
President of the United
States. And when he shrugs
his shoulders, pointing out
that American politics re-
semble a horse race, the next
question is, What chance
has Nixon?"
There is no doubt that Mr..
Nixon has won more follow
ers in Europe than any other
candidate. When it is pointed
out that Mr.. Nixon, if elected,
might be a more difficult
man to handle than the
White House incumbent, the
answer is something like
this: I'VE know this. But he
gives us the feeling of a
determined and stubborn
man who won't be influenced
by the Kremlin or London.
You and the rest of the free
world need new men who are
Unconditional about peace or
war. while at the same time
realizing the dangers of both.
You, and at the same time we,
need a man like Mr.. Tru-
man."
When the American points
out that Mr.. Truman and
Mr.. Nixon are quite differ
ent. the reply is that in the
field of foreign affs;rs cIr
Truman was adamant and
not afraid to take RESPONSE
bilities.
Two years ago when this

it morally wrong not to have
equal representation Of all
races and colors at all pub
lie functions? And what about
access to the homes Of pub
lie officials whose salaries are
paid by the taxpayers or ad-
mission to exclusive clubs
that enjoy tax exemptions?
Plainly, all individual rights
and customs could be brushed
aside If the sole criterion is
whether the individual or his
home or his place of business
happens to be related to Q
Government salary. a tax ex-
emption, or some other Gov
ernmental privilege.
Then there's another aspect
of the conflict between what
is sometimes called morally
right or wrong and what's
being termed legally right or
wrong. This conflict was ap-
parent in the momentous de-
cision Of the Supreme Court
Of the United States in 1854
which overturned the sep
arate but equal" doctrine in
public-school facilities for all
races. Many lawyers have
often spoken Of the desegre-
cation ruling of the court as
"the right decision for the
wrong reasons" What this
means is that segregation
may be morally wrong but
the court gave psychology"
rather than legal reasons for
reversing the previous Su-
preme Court decisions.
Also, was it morally right
or even legally right for the
Congress in 1857 and 1868 to
send military forces into the
State legislatures. of the
South and compel them, at
the point of the bayonet, to
ratify the Fourteen tn
Amendment? Yet this is the
amendment that has formed
the basis for the desegration

NANOOKS FINALLY
WIN FIRST GAME

In the second game of the
double header Friday night, the
new, exciting, Nome High School
basketball squad finally hit the
win column after several near
misses. The hapless victims were
the Jaycee crew.
The High School boys, leading
all the way, were not to be denied.
The brightest spot in the Nanook
win was the way Bill Oman
tracked" the boards. Big Bill,
new conner to the lineup was
gradually gaining confidence in
himself and is proving to be a
ball player to be .reckoned with.
The Nanooks completely domin
ated their offensive boards the
whole game.
Leading the point making de-
partment was Johnny Herman
with IA and Ronnie Locke with g..
The Jaycees, conquerers of the
mighty National Guard, just
couldn't seem to find the hoop.

Foreign Pupil
Fund Is $lO5O
AT Sherwood

Judging from their own ex-
perience, Sherwood High School
students could start a course on
how to raise money.
They have just completed q
whirlwind campaign in which
they collected $1050 in five days.
The money will be used to send
a Sherwood student abroad this
summer and bring a foreign stu
dent here next year.
To help raise the money, the
senior class held a progress
sive" dinner. 1t worked this way:
Each of the four courses was
served at different house with
the diners going from home to
home, topping it off with a
dance.
The four hostesses were Caro-
lyn Kluckhuhn, who served ap-
petizers; Bobbi Nagel, salads;
Sara Sherwin, the main dish,
and Linda Bower, who furnished
both the dessert and the music
for dancing.
Another substantial sum came
from the juniors, who donated
half the proceeds of their hop
after their basketball game.
Kids also contributed individ-
ually in their classrooms for
several days running until the
goal was topped.

The battle was joined at a citi-

result was a draw. Franks mo-

AS a result, Stern, who owns

N. Chevy Chase
Incorporation Question
Has Community in Stew

The uneasy peace in North
Chevy Chase is expected to
be shattered soon when a
new committee brings in rec
concentrations for changes
in the charter of the 140-home

Once more, neighbor will be

name the members of the new

suggestions will come before
