As for Kennedy, if he doesnt get the presidential nomination, he can always run for senator from Maryland or North Dakota or 1 Need Counselors The Box Elder School district central office staff reorganization which received board of education approval this past week was a good one insomuch as qualified individuals were elevated to positions of greater responsibility. We concur heartily with the selection of C. Morgan Hawkes to become administrator of curriculum and instruction. This is a new position in which is vested the authority to bring a greater degree of coordination into this most vital area of district operation. OF Richard I). Kimber for the director is another choice of personnel pupil post endorsement. our complete gaining We've observed both men in their current activities, TIawkes as director of pupil personnel and special services, and Kimber as elementary counselor, and believe both to have the stuff of which good administrators are made. APPROVAL THE ONE criticism which we harbor, and it's an old theme for this newspaper, is that instead of strengthening counseling at the elementary school level, the reorganization apparently will weaken it. That more attention should be paid, not less, is not our exclusive idea; far fram it. On several occasions weve discussed the desirability for grade school counselors with local school officials. THEIR CONCLUSIONS verify our own suspicions; that emotional ills take root in these lower grades. If not given assistance, disturbed youngsters often become tomorrows dropouts. As usual, money seems to be the culprit, that not is, enough of it to reinforce our elementary imcounseling program. Yet, this is such a vitally made be can that provisions portant area, we trust somewhere in the budget to continue and hopefully, strengthen our present program. Open for Us Too A blow has been struck for the short drivers, the duffers of that often frustrating pastime known as golf. The three short holes, Nos. 4, 5 and 6, original to the Brigham City course layout, will not be closed to further play as indicated in city council action of March 7. It was reported Thursday that some of the lady addilinksters prefer not to play the new tion, designed of considerably longer Iengtn. They would rather challenge the short ones. three-hol- e BENDING TO THIS expression of preference, the city council has decreed that six days a week (Sundays excepted) the short route will be open from 6 to 10 a.m. Our only criticism here is that a concession was made soley for the distaff side, the fairer sex who arent generally expected to belt the ball long distances. SO WHAT DOFS that make us of the male gender who also hold a loudness for the original greens and fairways? When we take off on the short holes, is Arnold Palmer going to jump from the bushes and shout, "Ah, you swing like a little old lady? THE LAST TIME a contingent of N-- J golfers took to the new fairways, we lost 14 golf balls, set a new time and endurance record, flushed radius and came every pheasant within a less handicap. away with a cumulative score of 23(5, But we still dont want to be lumped with the ladies!

"Why McCarthy?" "Because he says funny things and right now, believe the country needs some one with a sense of I I humor." This puzzled me. "I never looked upon McCarthy as being funny.

He still has 25,000 Nixon for President buttons left over from the last time. However, he has run into a snag; they got all mixed up with 49,000 Nixon for Governor buttons and the staff is having a dickens of a time getting them separated. "As for Reagan, he hasn't had much experience in politics. This immediately qualifies him as the best candidate of the bunch.
