The originOI Settlers

Mrs. Murray said initially there
will probably be six families NOV
ing into the Stockton area in
connection with the center. She
added this number would grow
but essentially the center would
draw visitors rather than perma-
nent residents.
One Of the first orders Of
business after moving to Kansas
this fall, Mrs. Murray said. would
be to enroll her S-year-old son
Garth in public school. Her older
son william will probably stay
in Baltimore with relatives in
order to finish high school.
Things can't be any worse for
him out there (Stockton) than
they were here" she said referring
to her younger son, "They can't
beat him up or call him any more
vile names than the kids around
here"

Television sets cost from $500 to
$500 and buyers must get on q

which 10000 were manufactured
last year, are largely traded by

At home the waiting list Is now
about two years for models selling

But something differed.
Swimmers failed to venture be-

Mrs. Murray is quite willing to

her views on atheism. Even the
simplest question sets her off on
q harangue of the evils Of re-
ligion in general and Christianity
In particular.
The idea Of establishing an
atheist center according to Mrs.
Murray stems from her impatience
with the negative approach taken
by various splinter atheist groups
across the Nation.
Mrs. Murray is emphatic that
she is not planning to establish
an atheist colony in Stockton but
rather q cultural center where
atheists from all over the world
can meet and exchange ideas.

You find hatful of theories about the
causes of juvenile crime The trouble with most of
them is that they seem only partial explanations.
For example, such usually cited factors pow
erty, bad housing, broken homes, racial discrmina-
ton and poor schooling obviously don't play any
role in the substantial amount of crime committed
by well cared for youngsters in us. suburbs.
The playwright Arthur Miller, writing not long
age in Harpers, searched hard for a real common
thread, which would bind together juvenile
crime not just in this country but all over the
world. 1t runs high in Europe - even in the Soviet
Union.
Miller believes he has found the bond He thinks
it is an all-pervading boredom, strange kind of
emptiness Of the mind and spirit
The emptiness he speaks of comes from an alb
of challenges lack of genuine meaningful
conflicts, failure to test the individuals will and
capacity.
