Participate in Interchange Program Threat to the ' The Utah State TrainingSchool will become an "Institution of i transition, rather than a dead end for residents" under a new - rehabilitation program being pioneered at the school. Officials feel the program is r a significant step forward in the . rehabilitation of the mentally retarded through the cooperation ' of four agencles...the Utah State Training School, the Office of Rehabilitation Services, Brig-ha- m Young University and the Alpine School District. ; The cooperative agencies will provide vocation rehabilitation under the pilot program in the - . ; areas of janitorial service, kit-- '. chen and canteen, and laundry, ', with 43 persons enrolled in the f program at this time. Dr. Vaughn L. Hall, execu- ; tive director, OR3, said that there win be a concentrated effort on the part of the Utah State Training School and the Office of Rehabilitation Services to modify work training programs to qualify the mentally retarded for placement in the community as well as in the school. He noted that one of the important accomplishments of rehabilitation in recent years is to demonstrate that substantial numbers of mentally retarded can be prepared for vocational placement and satisfactory adjustment in society. He said that the new program will help the Utah State Training School in fulfilling its role as an institution of transition rather than as a terminal home for many young people. Officials said the Training School will provide the facilities and resources; the Office of Rehabilitation Services, the selection of students, counseling and guidance; Brigham Young the Graduate Intern Program of the College of Education, will provide the educational curriculum, and instructors. Alpine School District is providing a social and emotional adjustment class which serves as a reinforcing aid to help residents assume their role In the community. Officials noted that the agencies, are pooling their resources in order to "do a better job" than by having each agency work ing individually. ing, job training on campus and then in the community, and job placement. Supplies and trans portation costs will also be sup plied by the Office of Rehabili tation Services. Dr. Hall said that it is hoped that through this program an increasing number of the men tally retarded will receive mean ingful service and become inde pendent and successful members of their communities. He went on, "the whole future of our country depends on all people qualifying for their high est level of achievement" and noted that most "normal" people work far below their capacity, doing work which would best be done by someone else, freeing them for more challenging activities in job opportunities. In regards to the future, Dr. Hall stated, "As time goes on we believe that many mentally retarded youngsters in public schools will have the opportun Ity to go through at least a semester of work adjustment and He training on the campus." went on to say that there are hundreds of mentally retarded enrolled in public school pro grams who could benefit from this type of service as they leave the school program. A main objective of this cooperative program will be to demonstrate that the various ag encies can together provide a more comprehensive and effective rehabilitation result than could be done separately. Supt. Sagers, stated he was very pleased and enthusiastic about the program and believed it had great potential , Bill L. Dalton Killed in Viet Nam Pfc. Bill L.

He said that the mentally re tarded worker is being trained to fill jobs in the area of demand such as fruit picking, house work, janitorial, laundry, etc. -areas where he can often do better than a "normal-- ' worker who is dissatisfied with his job.

Residents of the training school who are selected for the training will be classified as to interest inventories, job performances, estimation of abilities and capabilities as well as placement in a job classification where they will have the best chance to succeed. Although there are 84 residents currently enrolled in the Adult Education evening classes sponsored by the Alpine School District, only 43 of these are enrolled in the Training Program. The others are potential vocational training students. The Social and Emotional adjustment classes are designed to help prepare the students to work in the community. The classes are composed of from ten to twelve residents each. And are under the direction of the Training sessions will last a semester (about four and one-ha- lf months). However, if it is felt a student needs more training, he will be given further inintern-evaluato- rs. struction.

Owen Dean, Vocational Rehabilitation Director at the Training School, and Hal Johnson, of the Provo ORS office, have correlated the program between the agencies and drawn up the basic program outline. Dr. Hall said that as the new concept of vocational rehabilitation is introduced at the training school, the school's campus will extend more and more into the community.

They took a little snowball and began to roll it in the snow. Little by little the snow- ball grew. Unfortunately for the children, they had been playing on top of a hilL They lost control of the snowball and it began to roll down the hillside, slowly at first, then faster and faster it began to roll, crushing everything in its way, until nothing was safe that lay in the pathway of that gigantic snowball. Just like this snowball, Communism got its start from two men, Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, in a book called, "Communist Manifests." But Communism did not stop here. It crept into the minds of other men slowly at first, then ever faster and faster until its threat to the destruction of Peace became the number one fear of all men everywhere. Communism, a theory which grew out of the working men's movement in Germany in the 19th century, might well be called the number one enemy to our Constitution. Communism took its first step when Karl Marx called upon the working men of all nations to unite to hasten a world revolution that would destroy the capitalist system and in its place an industrial system, controlled entirely by the workers, would appear. By the 1960's the snowball of Communism had left its mark in the lives of the people of this world. It now controlled more than a billion people. Communist had over 35,000,000 parties The members.

Communism today is the greatest foe we face in preserving ow precious Constitution. This document so divinely written to protect the rights of each individual and the basis for our democratic government, must be protected against the evils of Communism. But, you say, we are protecting it. We have trained men diligently, and daily we manufacture numerous weapons and materials of war. We have shown our strength in Korea and Viet Nam. Yes, we could valiantly fight an armed force attack, but there is an even greater enemy used by Communist countries and this will ultimately deprive us of our democracy and then will destroy our Constitution. Communist governments have many methods of winning over a neutral country. They send prop -oganda to prove that Communism has developed a fast, efficient method of building industrial strength. Many under -- developed countries receive trade benefits and grants of money. The Russians help build bridges, roads and factories. They encourage university students from neutral countries to come and study in Russia. These are all successful methods of gaining the approval of people, but an even more effective tool is their method of thought control. This is our big gest threat for the destruction of our Constitution and the loss of our freedom. Using thought control, Communism can easily take over your mind and place new thoughts in it, all to their advantage. They can do this so quickly and efficiently that you may never know that your thoughts have changed in the least. SKILLFUL METHODS The Communists are so skillful in their methods of thought control that they can undo thought patterns which may have taken a person years to acquire. A teacher, for example, using the principles of thought control could easily sway the minds of innocent young children. A story is told of a beautiful young Communist girl who took over the job of teaching a class of young children. All their lives these children had been taught to love, honor and respect their flag which was the symbol of their country and its freedom. In a matter of minutes this teacher craftily changed this whole feeling by twisting around the thoughts of these children. The teacher asked the children what the flag meant to them. When none could fully explain it, only to say that it was something like a sign of love for their country, she proceeded to explain it to them. She told them it was like a symbol. "But we don't need a sign to remind us that we love our country, do we?' this new teacher asked. The children thought about this and shook their heads. One little boys, Johnny by name, put up his hand. "It's our flag," he said fiercely. "Yes,"' the teacher said, "It is a very pretty one." She looked at it a moment and then said, "I wish I could have a piece of it. Don't you? Just a little piece of this flag because it's our own special classroom one.' Then the boy said, "If we had some scissors, we could cut a little piece off." Some scissors were found and soon the flag was cut into small pieces, just enough for each member of the class. The first step in controlling these children's thoughts had been won. The sym- - Thursday, March 7, IMS bol of their love for their country had been destroyed. The results of this first step in making a snowball would soon be disastrous, for the snowball would soon grow bigger and completely wipe out the children's love of their freedom and in its place the seed of Communism would start to grow. Just as easily a teacher could fill the minds of students with doubts of the making Communism one step closer to destroying this valuable document. Con-stituti- THOUGHT CONTROL Thought control is the political strategy aimed at achieving full command of the victim's feelings and thoughts. The minds of human beings can be influenced, conditioned and broken down, all according to pre -- conceived plans. Afterwards, the empty "grooves'" of the record can be filled with the words and thoughts of the master. The extreme of this process has been known since World War n as .'' It is used by dictators to Inject their wishes into the minds and mouths of victims so that they can control or destroy them. Today, as in the past, the general public sympathizes with victims of a cruel fate. Physical and mental torture burdens man's empathy and sympathy. Penetrating but rather simple methods are needed to pin down man's minds and transform them into induplicating, machine-lik- e "brain-washing- struments. Thought control is one of our most deadly enemies. It is used against us daily in one form or another. Usually, propaganda is thought control's chief advocate. Propaganda can help gain control of the thoughts and minds of men. Some people have claimed that human beings are unthinking like sheep and can be led around by those who use propaganda skillfully. Everyone is affected by CCfif! P i,nm.-.- Jim iJtfL Sr-GTQ- propaganda because we all nave common characteristics upon which the propagandist can capitalize. Love, hate and fear are emotions which we all have. PLAY UPON EMOTIONS Everyone Is Inclined to believe that which he would like to have true is true. This tendency is especially strong in his belief about himself. It is always more comforting for a person to feel that he Is more Intelligent, attractive and virtuous than perhaps he actually is. For this reason, propaganda that encourages our desire to flatter ourselves is much more successful than the kind that discourages and damages self confidence. By playing upon our emotions and using things we like to hear and believe. Communism can control our thoughts and eventually destroy our Constitution. The resistance we have offered Communist aggression has been a necessary but negative policy. As a world power we have closed our minds to the real threat of Communism. Our Constitution is a document so valuable and essential to our freedom that we must use our utmost ability to protect against the onslaught of this Communist snowball. To do this we must now mass our minds as a wall against this evergrowing threat of Communism. We must not and cannot let Communism control our thoughts, for doing so will mean the destruction of the foundation of all freedom- Our Constitution! $1.49Contoc Cold Capsules Lehi Drug Phone 78V3588 SCWtW 3 ry es.
