!: Letters TO The Editor:

Dear Sir:
We attended the Navajo Tribal
Fair at Window Rock this year for
the first time and must say we
enjoyed it immensely. Hope to
come again. While staying in CAL
lup, we bought a Navajo Times,
which was the first one we had
ever seen, although we have been
in the Southwest many times. We
were so impressed with it, that the
first thing we did when we got to
the Fair, was to subscribe to it
for one year. We are nowreceiving
it regularly.
Ever since the first time we
visited out there we have been very
much interested in the Indi ans and
wish we lived out there SO we could
become better acquainted with
them.
Thanks for your fine Navajo
Times. Although we can't be out
there all the time, we now feel
we are in touch through the Times.
Sincerely,
Lee and Ruth Teeple

Dear Navajo Times and Staff:

I've lived it myself. 1t was like
going around visiting people and
places that have appeared in your
Navajo Times. You'er the most
interesting and the most valuable
thing in my life, next to food. I'll
never 60 without it. I'll buy you
every week. So please visit a lot
of places and people. That way
I'll 60 next.
Now I'll close here with best

the nice work.
Congratulations!

Building Boys for the Future

Boy Scouting on the Reservation has been recently
reorganzed with some of the most able Navajo and
nonNavao leaders actively participating in Scouting
offices. This could be the beginning of strong an
enthusiastic Scouting movement in the Navajoand
Much has been said about the value of Scout train
ing to young and boys. There cannot be too
much said about the tremendous character building
aspects of Scout organizations One could describe
all the desirable traits of the ideal American citizen,
and find when these traits listed that they the
stated objectives of the Boy Scout program
Much can alsobe added about the contributions and
sacrifices of national leaders, state leaders and out
standing businessmen many OfWhOm attribute great
part of their success to early Scout training.
In marked contrast, research into the records of
criminals confined in the ious penal institutions
reveals the fact that only an ntinlteslma number OF
such exposed to the ideals of Scouting.
It makes wonder just how many of these could
have been useful and productive citizens instead Of
awbreakers had they been provdedwith the solid basis
for good citizenship which Scouting has often demon
strated.
The contributions of Scouting to boys futures
is legacy which all parents should encourage
which provides spirit of friendly competition in
the quest for merit badges, basic knowledge of many
varied skills in earning those merit badges and the
SatiSfa tiOn of becoming part Of "the team and
helping that team workas unitwith hundreds of other
similar units further the greatest organization for
BOYS in the country
The Scouting movement is not restricted to the boys
themselves. Parents invited to participate, and
there is always demand for tmasters den
mothers, scout leaders and committeeman that is
quite filled. Those who do dedicated and
who devote untold hours and effort to give those
boys the best in their scouting And the effort
is rewarded by great satisfaction and pride for those
who will give of their time AS in the past the future
of our country will eventually fall those who the
children 1t is logical and practical to point every
effort toward seeing that young given
sound basis in good citizenship andintegry andwha
better way is offered than the precepts of Scouting
spread to encompass as many tie enage boys as
possible?
The comment has also been made that many parents
consider scout meetings occasions when they have
free baby stting We do not feel that this is true OF
many rents Nava oland buwe do urge that parents
with boys of Cub Scout Boy outing age take an
active personal interest in scouting the boy has
begun And anyone who has endured the enthusiasm OF
young boy will find that it is difficult not to be very
personally involved.
With the wise planning of the competent Scout Com
mitteemen whom we now have a lded by active ana
interested adults as scoutmasters and den mothers,
and encouraged by public support, there is every
reason to expect that Navajoand scouting can become
one of the outstanding scout zations IN the
country. -

Nimmons was involved in the

The presiding judge said an

sentful and refused to permit
the test to continue.
Friends Harmful
Later, police said, the 49,
year-old was unruly in Jail,
and in court last month, he
swore at the judge. Police said
his friends. in misguided at
temptS to help him, invented
demonstrably false alibi stories.
Nevertheless. the detectives
said NimmonS could not be
linked to any of the other 40
odd butcher knife holdups. The
bandits method of operation
in all the robberies. including
the September 80 theft, was
virtually the same.
Mr.. Ledgard. a court APP
pointed lawyer who entered the
case after Nimmons' indictment
in January. believed the teen
ayers emphatic denials of guilt.
On May %, after Nimmons'
conviction, ,29-year-old Roy
Mitchell, a laborer, was arrested.
Mitchell, Detectives Fallin and
Smith said. re-enacted IL knife
robberies conyincingly.
One Of them was the S420
holdup for which Ninmons had
been convicted. The two de-
tectives took Mitchell to the
scene and said his description
of the robbed establishment,
the victims and the environs
was accurate and that he
showed knowledge of facts that
only the bandit could know.
Almost Freed
Three days later, Mitchell'S
confession as reported by police
was the basis of a motion by
Mr.. Ledgard for a new trial
and the release of his client.
Nimmons, however, missed be-
ing freed by a hairs breadth.
