down .66 795.87. WASHINGTON (AP) Prcsi- dent Nixon's White House hunger conference has told him in ifCect what lias been done for the nation's hungry is not enough and what should be done should be done now. The 3,000 delegates from all walks of life shouted acceptance of a statement calling on Nixon to declare a national hunger emergency, the government to an annual income floor of $5,500 and free lunch and breakfast programs for poor children. A delegation of six participants planned to meet with the President today to stress the concern of the conference. "There is a hunger and malnutrition emergency in this country today," the conference statement said Thursday.

"Therefore, the President must immediately declare that a national hunger emergency exists, and under existing authority must now fret funds and implement programs to feed all hungry Americans this winter," the statement said. As an interim measure only all present food programs should be reformed and expanded, said the statement. This will be part of hundreds of recommendations to the President on virtually every conceivable pect of food, nutrition and health. The statement also cited what many antlhunger crusaders consider congressional obstruction. All food programs should be switched from the Agriculture Department to the Department of Health, Education and Welfare with corresponding shifts in congressional committee responsibilities, it said.

The President's conference chairman, Dr. Jean Mayer, said there was "an escalation of concern for the poor" at the conference, and "I am perfectly satisfied with the results." Before the conference closed, Mayer said the President had decided to give priority to establishing food In 307 U.S. counties withou', them and tipping the allowable purchasing power of food from the current $65 to $108 a month for a family of four. Caucuses of blacks, Puerto Ricans, Appalachian whites, Indians and Mexican-Americans said the President's action was not enough, that free food stamps should be given to all the poor immediately. They doubted the President had existing legal power to expand food stamps and said the Agriculture Department already announced the increased allowance.

deaths At the clone of the general conference session a poor group coalition slid the conference re- mahied in order and would do no until the President made free food Btamps available. But the delegates left the coalition with a group of some 20 people milling in the lobby of the conference hotel. In a windup speech, Sen. ter Mondftle, told the "We flattered the hungry with everything except food." "Surely if we can respond to victims of hurricanes, we can respond to the victims of hunger," the senator aaid. Pactr Lance Tripp services for Pacer Lance Tripp were this morning at Leoli Cemetery.

Signs around the school urged all students to come to see "The Ugliest Man in the World." Many students refused to attend the rally because they see enough of our prkvcipal the way it is. But it wasn't our principal! They had our other "The Ugliest Man in the World" a vice-principal.

Last Tuesday, I though I'd down and write a paragraph praising the G.C.H.S. athletes for their scholastic achievements. But I later decided to go to the basketball game instead. At the game there was a flection of the gymnasium bleachers which was roped off for G-Club (high school lettermen). The paper sign on the crepe paper which marked off the section read: "This section reserved for Oh well.

The big thing this week among high school boys was t'te draft lottery. Most boys haven't yet turned 18, but the interest ts there all the same. Om hoy was in a peculiar quandary. His number was 966. But be couldn't decide whether that was a good sign or a bad one.

Either tt indicated that his luck is good and hopefully, will remain so, or it that he blew it all in one shot. The Pep dub it now selling G.C.H.S. sweatshirts. The money raised will help finance the trip a few Pep Club girl will take to the Wamego bat ketbaiU tournament later this year.

The students at the high ohool have certainly taken ote of the increasing concern the local adults have exhibited 'the area of drug addiction. My two weeks ago the high school teachers met to discuss he drug problem. The teachers earned how to detect a person who is taking drugs and they were urged to educate their tudents in the harms of drugs, teachers were almost ate to class that morning, lad to get that quick cigarette in the teacher's lounge! Four senior boys were guests Wednesday at the combined meeting of the local service clubs (Lions, Rotary, Kiwanis). The guest speaker was the man from the Federal Bureau of Narcotics. The boys found lis speech very interesting 'but a little hard to concentrate on due to the smoke constantly circling the speaker's head.

The cigarette wasn't his. It was the local service club seated at his side. After the speech there was a question-answer period. Our probate judge asked a question, but the boys had trouble seeing she judge through the smoke. The cigarette wasn't the judge's.

It was our mayor's. I'm just a kid, and I wouldn't pretend to equate the harms done to the body through narcotics with the harms of cigarettes. Nor would I equate the harms committed upon society by drug addicts with those committed on our highways by users of alcohol. I do know that when I left the service club luncheon, the clean, fresh air helped me to think clearer, and it occurred to me that nobody young or old has an over-abundance of that little commodity. See you next week.

Robert Docking told a crowd of 1,000 spectators Thursday night that the Nixon administration is a "do as little as possible" administration.

Docking, a Democrat, spoke at a $25 per plate appreciation dinner for Oklahoma Reps. Carl Albert, Tom Steed, Ed Edmond- sun and John Jarmnii. He said Nixon's administration "should offer more than rhetoric of resolution, devoid of any solid action which is the real backbone of real leadership. "The war in Vietnam shows few signs of abatement, the cost of living continues to rise, but at the same time governmental spending is not being significantly reduced," Docking said. "It requires no great imagination to see that the Democrats shall soon bo called upon to give direction to our govern- ment and to re-assume the leadership of America," he said.

"The Democratic party of the future can be a great alliance open to liberals but not susceptible to the destructive forces of the extreme left; open to conservatives but not vulnerable to the irrationality of the extreme right" Docking said. "Our party can change with the needs of the people, but any new politics must join hands with reality. No political party can survive without a coalition coalition of ideas, a coalition of people." plaster ot 10:30 1 p.m., wid 3 p.m. Twin By Jliarold Piano wdtol Owen, 1- OUttimeni 13:90 p.m. club 7:80 p.m.
