Looking Ahead
By SHARON DANIEL

This fifth issue of the 1961-62 edition of the GROWL
arrives on the campus on the last day of this month, but
it heralds a new year that has hardly begun. |, along WIN
Co-editor Bill and our staff, wish for ali our readefS the
best of everything during the next eleven months
1862 will bring many problems and challenges Tor each
student and faculty member on our Il. j. {. campus. linus
it is fitting that we should stimulate our thinking and make
ourselves ready to face this new year. Those of us who do
wake up and think and work hard will probably find TINS
effort to be rewarding.
Let us not waste our time looking back over the fallures
we made during the last semester or during the last year.
We must look ahead to the work now before US. 1t IS
futile to worry about mistakes that are behind us; we
must profit by our mistakes and go on to new endeavors.
We might well note these wor DIS from Cicero: TO stumble
twice against the same stone is a proverbla1 dlsgrace.
In 1862 a multitude of events will delight or, perhaps,
sadden us. During February we shall be making new friends
in our second semester classes. We can also expect some
heavy courtin' around Valentines Day. The debate team
and other speakers will go to the speech festival, and the
Bulldogs will WIND UP the basketball season. In March this
H. J. C. hill will make a wonderful place to fly kites, if
the wind cooperates. We also have the glorious Spring Holt
DAYS to look forward to during March. Spring will begin
officiallv during April Just think of all the fun we'll have
enjoying the warm weather and sunshine. May will bring
the laughter and tears of Graduation Day. The sophomores
Will be leaving, and the freshmen will be moving up a
notch on the H. ]. C. academic ladder. If they live through
another session of final exams, they will have earned the
promotion Then summer will stretch out before us, promis-
ing three months of water sports and all the other wonder
ful opportunities summer offers in the way of jobs, new
friends, and adventures.
Let us turn our eyes to the open door of 1862 and
cross the threshold of February with a determination to
make every day count.

Freedoms Roll Call OF 1862 Poses Challenge
We Will Participate

The editor of this newspaper has
received a letter from Admiral Arthur
w. Radford. USN (Ret), in which he
asks our participation in an educational
campaign for the benefit of our readers
and the general public the 1862
Freedoms RollCall - an educational
campaign designed to ~acquaint our
readers with the threat that today
hangs over all our heads in the form
of the world Communist conspiracy.
But it is not the Communist con-
spiracy alone with which the 1862
Freedoms Roll-Call is concerned. 1t
also encourages the study of our own
American Way of Life, especially a.
mong the young people, in order that
they may learn the truth and be able
to discriminate between the false
promises of the Communists and real
values of American life.
The campaign, if successful.
should give all Americans, young and
old. the information we need to be able
to discuss in~telligently the two domi-
nant political and economic systems
which exist in the world today and
to do so authoritatively.
The 1862 Freedoms RollICall
poses a challenge to every freedom
loving citizen.
Articulate Americans are needed
to promote the American Way OF Life
but our announcements need to be
made with real knowledge based on
fact. In some instances there is a great
deal of transformation which some
good Americans have picked up along
the way which should be corrected. A
number of crimes are being committed
in the name of patriotism.

A New Term

"A student editorial writer at Delta
State College, James A. TONNES, Jr..
has proposed that the widely hailed
term of "super-patriot" being used
these days be modified to Hsuper-
patridiot' which he said would more
fully identify the group which poses
as the saviour of our country at the
same time it seeks to make everyone
else conform to its own ideas.
Young TONNES exposed astonish-
ment at the treatment of a group OF
high school students by Jackson city
police when they met General Edwin
Walker on his arrival at the Jackson
airport. The police detained and ques-
toned the four Jackson young people
on the suggestion of one of the local
women supporters Of General Walker,
described by TONNES as "extreme
right-wing."
In the January 18th issue Of the
MISS DELTA, student newspaper, he

Thursday, February 1, is the last
day that poll tax may be paid in Mis-
sissippi. This is a final reminder.
Unless the $500 tax is paid on
or before that date you will not be
able to vote in the Congressional cleo
ton this year. 3. (.
Nor will you be able to vote in
The Democratic Primary next year in
which all of your local and state
government officials will be elected for
1964-68.
This is the key year for poll tax
payments inasmuch as Mississippi law
requires that two consecutive poll tax
receipts be presented as one of the re-
q~uisites for voting.
So if you are interested in the
kind of government we live under, you
should make an earnest effort to pay
the tax and be able to help select those
who run it. Government is the people.
One of the universal rights &C.
corded all Americans is The right to
grippe = and most of us take full adj
vantage of it. This is one of the few
pleasures enjoyed by almost everyone
= and M~ississippians ipspartioular.
We would not take that right a.
The Lexington advertiser. [volume] (Lexington, Miss.) 1904-1985, 1962-02-01

We must be able to tell the good
from the bad, the false from the true.
Each of us as good citizens should
not only read but study the Constitu-
ton of the United States, the Bill of
Rights, and the Declaration of indie
pendence. We should try to understand
that these great documents are the
foundation of III great heritage and
are meant to protect and defend all
Americans, all of the people who dwell
in our land, people of all races, religion
and color.
We must come to realize that we
cannot trample on the rights of any
one individual or group without having
our own freedom threatened.
Most of all we must each of us
seek and find the truth in all things
= for it is the truth alone that can
keep us free. This is something we
must do for ourselves and not leave
to anyone else.
When we abdicate our response
bility to do our own thinking and leave
it to any other individual or pressure
group, we have taken the first step
to creating a fascist state or dictator
ship in which all Individual freedom
is lost.
If we do not care enough about
our own freedom to do what We can
to preserve it, then we deserve to lose
it.
But God forbid that we should.
During February we shall empha-
size in the Freedoms Roll-Call things
we ear all do to help preserve u
freedom and make democracy work.
We hope each reader will be in
terested enough to participate.

wav from anyone. But we would like
to point out that most of the grip
ing we hear relates to the actions OF
our elected officials on all levels from
the precinct on up to governor. And
of course the President of the United
States is always a prime target. Grip
ing alone will not change conditions,
but voting can and will.
Our elected officials do what the
people want them to do eventually.
They may be a little slow to catch on
sometime as to what the people really
want. But eventually the people get
what they want or deserve in the way
of government. This is what scare us
most. Our apathy, Indifference and
carelessness in the past is what is re-
sponsible for our present plight.
The men we have in office today
are the result of our thinking three
years ago. The men we will have IN
office two years from now will be a
product of our thinking today. We a.
lone determine those who rule us in
Mississippi. -
If we don't pay our poll tax to-
day weswili have nothing to say about
who our rulers shall be in 1864.

This MINOR incident illustrates the

Letter To Editor

freedoms ROll-Call
Freedoms Foundation
Valley Forge, Pa.
Dear Editor:
The theme of this years
Roll-Call was never more APP
rropriate or more timely =
what Have You Done Fol
Freedom Today?" 1t is aimed
at tugging at the conscience
Of every citizen. awakening
rim to the necessity t. think,
speak and act in benalf OF
freedom every day in the
week.
AS we study the world
picture today it becomes cry
stall clear that the challenge
of Communism is dangerous
and deadly and that in the
end. one side or the other,
freedom and the Free World
led by America, or slavery
and the Communist World
led by Russia, will prevail.
Under these conditions no
one can afford to be san
euine no one can afford
to be Indifferent, in their de-
votion to the principles of
freedom. If the American
Way is to survive, three
things are essential:
First, we need most sore
ly to encourage our people,
especially our youngsters,
to prefer the values of the
American Way and to re-
,ject the glittering but false
promises Of the Communist
Way.
Second, the American
people must be alert to
and understand the nature
and threat of Communism.
Third, the. American peo-
Pile must be more active,
more dedicated and more
articulate in behalf of the
American Way thar the
Communists are of theirs.
Essentially what is requir-
ed is a massive, national re-
dedication to the concepts of
Americanism, and a smash
ing counterattack against the
false propaganda of Commu-
rism.
The newspapers of the ma
ton are the primary leyys to
any public education cam
raign of this type end we
urge your participation tim

with one company without a

about it, including attorneys
for boards of supervisors,
chancery clerks and others"
1t called for "the guilty to be
brought to justice"
"The one stumbling block
