American teen-agerS feel
the United States should
fight to keep our naval base
at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba,
If necessary, according to Q
poll by the Institute of Stu
dent Opinion, under Scholas-
tic Magazines, Inc.
The poll was taken before
the recent attempt to invade
Cuba. Some 10000 high
school students were asked:
Should the United States
use fore, If necessary, to
retain its naval base at
Guantanamo Bay?" Given
five alternatives, they an
swered as follows:
SO per cent-we should use
air, naval and ground forces
to keep the base.
80 per cent-we should use
air and naval forces but
should not land ground troops
on the Cuban mainland.
20 per cent-we should
keep the base as long as
allowed, but should leave if
Cuba asks us to.
2 per cent-we should
leave Guantanamo immedi-
ately.
8 per cent-no opinion.
In general, the girls favor
less stringent methods than
the boys. For example, 49 per
cent Of the boys feel we
should go all the way with
air, naval and ground forces,
If necessary, but only % per
cent of the girls agree.
Fidel Castro periodically
threatens to evict us from
the base, which covers As
square miles on Cuba'S south
east coast. Under a 1884
treaty, it can be abandoned
only by choice of the United
States, or by mutual agree
ment with Cuba.

Victor, Himself

III mas mol DSSn 80 long
since 1 was a teen-ager. AS a
matter of fact, ! can still
wildly recall my 18th birth
day a month ago. Contrary
to popular belief / am not a
bookWOrm and do have a So
cial life. I read one book q
month, study about five
hours a night, 60 to a dance
and movie almost every
week end and date high
school girls. I watched Milt
Grant at the barber shop.
Anyone can keep up with the
latest dances and songs by
listening to the radio and at
tending one dance a week.
Is it really necessary to
dance every Gay and on week
ends too? Joe High School,
is there anything about life
that you couldn't learn at one
dance q week that you
couldn't learn by watching
Milt Grant?
/ doubt If many of the reg
ularS are on the honor roll,
10 Anne. CTEEN, April 1D.
The rumor confirms the fact
that idle tongues will wag.
The letters against me show
very little constructive criti-
ciSm. Disagree with a kid
and usually he'll tell you,
you're just Jealous and to
keep your opinions to your
self. Teen-agers are not
kids! They're supposed to
be young adults. They should
have some common interests
with adults. It seems that
anyone who 6isagreeS with q
majority is either q crack
pot, egghead or bookworm.
It's easier to agree with some
thing than disagree.
While I was looking around
to see what was going on in
the world, Fred CTEEN, April
IA, I noticed q coveted
privilege" more important
than dancing. That is voting.
If teen-agers are so we'll
rounded. well informed, why
haven't they written letters
to the District Commission
ers demanding the right to
vote at 18? Why isn't TEEN
full of letters protesting this?
If all the energy spent on
Milt Grant was channeled
maybe it would do some good.
At least it would show adults
that teen-agers aren't COM
placent.
Wheaton can't become a
city until it has its own post
office. Write a letter to the
Assistant Postmaster General
if you want Wheaton to be-
come a city. If teen-agerS

would be better community.

complacent. Do something
about it.

Sponded in a style that would
have brought an appreciative
gleam to the eye of Perry
Mason.
True, Mr.. Ernst didn't ex-
actly know what had happened
and, therefore, was at the same
disadvantage as his listeners.
Plenty of lawyerly ifs" dotted
his discourse.
If Sullivan had really threat
ened the kind of pressure Paar
said he had "a blanket edict
saying he would pay acts that
appeared with Paar the same
amount -$ $320-fo for appearing
on his show, then Ernst felt
that Sullivan was exerting un-
due pressure. that a network
might be next in line at this
High Octane Pump and that
the First Amendment was in
volved.
amendment One: Congress
shall make no law respecting
an establishment Of religion,
or prohibiting the free exercise
thereof; or abridging the free
dom of speech, or of the press;
or the right Of the people peac-
ably to assemble and to petit
ton the Government for a re-
dress of grievances.")
Ernst, his voice hoarsely elo-
quent, put it simply: What had
always concerned him was the
public's right to see and hear
This was no time for name
calling, he said, a piece of ad-
vice which should have come
before and not after Paar's
you're a liar" charge.
Sullivan had every right to
book his show the way he
wanted to, Ernst pointed out;
but if he made such a threat
then he was "dirtying up the
marketplace."
The issue, Ernst suggested
no longer belonged to Sullivan

ed with this new source Of energy in

surface, which carries an eight-volt
charge of electricity, supplied BY
centrally located nucIe0r reGctOr.
Vehicles pick up their power from
the road itself, store it in batteries that
run small electric motors. They can
thus operate on normal streets after
leaving the atomic super-road, by using
electricity directly supplied by the bat
teries.
Years ago the electric cars we saw on
our roads were delightful. Their electric
motors were almost noiseless and fume-
less. However, they disappeared because
we couldn't store enough electricity in
them to power them at reasonable speeds
over long distances. With electrical
power continuously supplied by nu.
clear reactOr and carried in the surface
of road, we have the problem licked.
We can once again produce these small,
lightweight cars, at fantastic saving to
both the automotive industry and the
