Presented by the Dillwyn Resi-

If Howard K. Smith were Jack

cry over attempts to restrict his
freedom of expression on the air
would be Page One news across
the country.
If Smith were Fulton Lewis, Jr.
I am sure some Society would
champion his cause. Or if he
were broadcaster who lived be-
hind the Iron Curtain and sought
freedom over here there would be
articles in all the news magazines.
There would be receptions in his
honor and we would all admire
his desire to speak his mind
Unfortunately for Howard X.
Smith he is none of these. In

Gently remembered for his excep-

Lippmann.
Smith has long fought for free
dom of expression for others and
he practices what he breaches. His
present difficulty with CHS stems
from view that a commentator
may not express personal judg-
ment nor make personal assess
ment of the conditions he de-
scribes.
Although the rule has not al
ways been enforced, the networks
executives applied it to Smith.
This is not the first time that

REVIEW

Jesse David Roberts, w. W..
Mort n, ESQ pp., 1895 VA.
(Young AduIt)
Once in a while you pick up
book that is SO completely charm
ing that it Immediately endears
itself to you, regardless of the
content.
Such a book BEARS, BIBLES
and a BOY. Although this is in
the publishers Young A du

myself enchanted with the simple
story of young man in world
so different from ours, that it al
most seemed as though I yer e
treSpassing on another planet.
Jesse David Roberts was a boy
at the turn of the century. Home
to him was rural community at
Brant Lake in the AdirOndackS of
New York. This was S e d
country, and the grandeur of the
surroundings matched the gram
deur of the inhabitants. For these
were people only one S e p re-
moved from the pioneers.
Jesse relates the story of his
tn er who was quite local
character. He was perhaps the
best bear traprer ever to invade
the mountain Businesses. Bears
were not hunted for the pure
sport of it. They were real and
terrible dangers to the isolated
rural community. Everything one
owned in the world was usually
bounded by the fence around the
mountain home. And when a bear
sulked in the neighborhood, killing
chickens and lambs, horses and
pigs, mutilating a priceless farm
dog, terrorizing one and all, it
was usually Father Roberts who
brought peace back by trapping
the truant bear.
One particularly spectacular
catch was of spectre which had
caused fear and speculation for
many seasons. The Farmers told
of a ghost-like wrath that haunt
ed their pastures and brought
death and destruction in its wake.
Jesse tells how his father, after
many forays, finally caught up
with this mountain marauder. He
tracked the bear to his cave where
he would have stayed the winter,
unless moleSted by an adventurous
hunter.
Father built a smoke fire in
the opening of the den. By wav-
ing their jackets, the men tried
to force the fumes under the
lodges into the den, but the strate-
gy proved unsuccessful. Even
tually, it became evident the men
would have to crawl into the den
and attempt to- drive the occupant

been invented, and since no one
had brought a candle or lantern,
