GETTING AROUND Continued from page 2

The Rev. Floyd Fortin, pastor of St. John the Baptist Roman Catholic Church in Hugo, Minnesota, believes horseback riding is better exercise and a better answer to juvenile delinquency than hot-rodding. Father Fortin encourages the parish's youngsters to use the riding rink he has set up on church grounds and to look after the horses that are kept in the parish's barn. Each year they put on a horse show that has now become one of Minnesota's biggest exhibitions—this year's drew nearly 4,000 people. Many children in the parish have their own horses, and, Father Fortin says, "a boy or girl who rides, grooms, and cares for a horse won't be a juvenile delinquent." A notice posted in the woods near Bluff Park, Alabama, accurately warns, "One Tree Makes A Million Matches But One Match Can Destroy A Million Trees." Jean E. Laird, of Oak Lawn, Illinois, says that the hit of a recent school science fair was the rocks and minerals exhibit of Miss Mary Frances Bradley, age 12. It was beautifully displayed, with bits of hornblende, amethyst, jasper, and other lovely stones tastefully surrounding the central attraction: a plain piece of gravel, labeled "Rock from Elvis Presley's Driveway." Richard Soliday, 12, who lives near Choctaw, Oklahoma, will never use a vacuum cleaner in the bird cage again. All he wanted to do was make his parakeet Tweedy Pie more comfortable in an extra-clean cage, when—swoosh, Tweedy Pie suddenly disappeared. It took an emergency operation with a sharp knife to get the birdy out of the sweeper bag. There's a happy ending, though, you will be pleased to learn. The only casualties: one vacuum bag and one set of tail feathers. Mrs. Fred H. Baker, of Clawson, Michigan, charmed us with her tale of the couple who arrived on these shores from Europe a few years ago and came to settle in her town. They wanted to become Americans, so they studied our language and customs and history, until they felt qualified to take the examinations. Finally, years after they began, they became citizens of the United States. The husband got the news first and rushed into the kitchen to tell his wife the long-awaited news. "Anna, Anna," he shouted, "at last we're Americans." "Fine," she said. "Now you wash the dishes." An eleventh-grade student at the Summit, New Jersey, High School won $75 from the National Science Teachers' Association for what we think is a very sensible suggestion. Mary Wagner's project, submitted in a competition run by the association, concerned the problem of getting to and from school without carrying 20 pounds of books each day. Miss Wagner proposed redesigning textbooks into study units, so that each student would take home only the unit that was immediately needed, and the rest of the units would remain at school. In Boulder, Colorado, the coordinator of scholarships at the University is stumped. It's almost impossible, he says, to find students qualified for the Herrick Loan Fund, which can go only to those who do not smoke, drink, or swear. In Torrington, Connecticut, city employee Raymond Over turned down a raise in pay. Said Raymond: "It was one of the most irresponsible government acts I had ever seen."
