You might not convert your friend but you help to deprive racists of the feeling that "everyone" agrees with him because they laugh at racist jokes and fail to indicate any disapproval.

They were charged with burglary, re ceiving stolen goods, sale of drugs and possession dangerous drugs.

VICTIMS IDENTIFIED 1 Police identified the 10 vic tims who were taken to hospi tals by frantic parents, friends a asked by assistant distnrct attorneys to voluntarily attend outpatient therapy sessions. TO AVERT CRIME Goal of the policy Is to help the persons affected. Specter emphasized there will be no change in his policy of insisting on jail sentences where warranted. "But in many instances the facts of the cases are not sufficient for jail sentences or even conviction," Specter said. "However, they do indicate dangerous potential which could be treated at an early stage.

"If uncorrected, these tendencies may later erupt into or police as: Robert Taylor, 17, of Irving I near 51st; John Stewart, 16, of Fairmount ave. near 35th: Gregory Edwards, 15, of Norwood st. near Nedro Two practitioners of Karate demonstrate the years old as a young man rather than boy." GETTING into specific, immediate things, Curtis Pontz, vice president of the Junior Chamber of Commerce.writes about programs his group has already begun: "The Jaycees have recently started a campaign to encourage owners of private camps located in eastern Pennsylvania to permit underprivileged children to attend with the cost to be borne by parties other than the camp owner. "Another endeavor recently undertaken is a campaign to encourage private country clubs in the Greater Philadelphia area to permit the use of their swimming facilities to underprivileged children on summer weekdays. "Of course, both of these projects are already encountering opposition from various sources and the more people who engage in these efforts, the better the chance of breaking down the mental and other barriers.

"In addition, the Jaycees are now in the process of forming a program whereby cooperating members will spend part of their otherwise leisure time supervising programs in community centers in underprivileged areas Hopefully, such a face-to-face program will open the eyes of those who have never suffered the misery and poverty of a ghetto." When you talk to black people about this the thing they keep coming back to is attitude. "Attitude is the big problem," Stanley Branche, one of the most significant leaders of black people in this city said: "What the white man should do is talk to other white men. We're taking pretty good care of the black man right now. But nothing is going to change while people stay so cold and. full of hate.

We don't want your money. All we want is your respect." AND there was a letter from a man in Philadelphia who said he had only a fifth-grade education. Spelling has been corrected so as not to distract from his point. "If you are really interested then I myself feel that it would mean more to a Negro man or woman to be invited to go bowling or to a house card party or something like that. I can only speak for the Negro since I am a Negro but we like you, not as someone different, but as someone the same as we are.

And we are angered when we see you as someone different, someone that turns your nose up at our color. And at the kinkiness of our hair. We didn't have anything to do with making our skin black or our hair kinky. That was done by God and speaking for myself I am very proud of my skin and hair just the way it is. And I like your skin and hair, too.

Just the way it is. It's pretty, and with a haircut or a hair-do, I think that "the Negro hair is pretty. But as pretty as it may be, it is still only hair or skin and the thing that really counts is the person." Douglas Hill, 15, of 46th st. near Aspen, and Howard Jones, 16, of 35th st. near Wallace.
