Bevington Reed, chancellor of the Minnesota State College System, termed the deaths of Bangsberg and Johnshoy "a deep personal loss to me and a loss to the educational system in Minnesota.

His offer came after a parade of seven metropolitan area mayors spoke at a press conference at the Holiday Inn, St. Paul, in favor of the Ogdahl-Frenzel plan for a directly elected metropolitan council.

One speaker, Mayor Stanley Olson of Richfield, called Newcome's measure unfair because it lacks direct elections. "Taxation without representation is tyranny," he said. Under attack was the appointed-council plan, backed by Sen. Gordon Rosenmeier, Little Falls, and Rep. Howard Albertson, Stillwater.

It has been introduced in the legislature by Sen. Robert mising?" asked Ogdahl. "It's not a very big concession." He said the direct-election provision is an "absolutely inviolate" requirement for setting up a council to coordinate services that cross local boundary lines in the metropolitan area. "There is no question," Ogdahl said, "that this community wants an elected council. I find no one who wants anything but an elective body." Rep.

William Frenzel, Golden Valley Conservative, is chief House author of the bill for a directly-elected council. The compromise was offered yesterday as a "possibility" by Rep.

DUSKIN AND TERRI ANN Starting a 25-minute train ride to St. Paul This statement comes from the book by Andrew Murray, "With Christ in the School of Prayer." We are told in Proverbs 22:6, "Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it." What better means have we than to' take the problems of directing our chil-ren's lives to the One who answers prayer? Together, we have need of Him: It is the Lord's will, that we should' enter into the work of prayer.

Perhaps tonight. Her fingernails were gaily polished red, her check dress freshly pressed.

In her hair was the blue clasp she wore to birthday parties. Prayer is fellowship MRS A EDblOM with the Eternal God; a channel of 'blessing. It holds the' secret of. power' and life. Odd Hallesby in his book, "Prayer," puts it this way: "To pray is' to let Jesus Christ come into our hearts." These facts give rise to the -desire to pray but we discover our own inability to pray aright.

We would share with His disciples the request; "Lord, teach us to pray." The answer the disciples received shows us that the essential part of prayer is worship and praise. At the same time we come to know God as a' loving-Father who knows our needs even before we ask.J He is able and willing to provide for our-needs and gives assurance of His abundant supply of bless- the 5-year-old girl who now raised an arm weakly to wave at an automobile? "Don't you want to get up and look?" the mother asked. The child did not respond but rested her head on the mother's shoulder. The mother was smiling and teasing and the little girl did not know there was no heart in the gaiety or that when her mother turned her head it was to weep. Vacantly the mother looked out the window on the opposite side of tli3 car.

Until a year ago Terri Ann was healthy and active, fond of playing house, wearing her mother's hats. She began falling down still reason and remember and feel.

But what were they to A week before she had been taken to the animal farm at Brookdale and a day later to the Easter display at Montgomery Ward's in Robblnsdale because her parents wished to give her what she would most enjoy in these final days of her life. A porter lifted her tenderly from her wheel chair and carried her into the observation car for the 25-minute ride from Minneapolis to St.
