Former Military Man Is American Youth Soft? Teacher Doesn't Think So

FROM A TANK'S TURRETT to a classroom is the change Col. Francis Barnes has made, but that hasn't altered his high regard for America's youth. The former tank commander, who now teaches at Southwest Miami High, is writing the day's assignment on the board with his mind at ease. He's sure the youth sitting behind him and young Americans across the country will be ready to assume their roles in society when the time comes. By RAYMOND LANG Do you think America's youth is going soft? If so, you had better tip toe by Col. Francis Barnes, a military man who is tired of pessimistic people who "howl like a hound dog." Col. Barnes clings to the opinion that America's youth is on the right road as firmly as does a village smithy clenches his hammer. "I'm sorry, I can't find anything wrong with our youth," said Barnes, 8710 SW 41st St. "I couldn't be happier if I was put on a South Sea island. "I think we'd better take a second look before we howl like a hound dog. "What's wrong with our youth? I heard it after World War I, the depression, World War II and after. You were of a generation that was lost," he said, pointing to this reporter. "I was of a lost generation, he was, we all were. It seems we like to lose a generation everytime one comes along." The 56-year-old teacher at Southwest Miami High leaned forward. "But we forge ahead. The flappers of yesterday are running the country today." Barnes, a science teacher, has worked with young people most of his life. He's worked with them during war with bullets whining and he's worked with them in the classroom with questions popping. "These are good wholesome people," said the former tank commander. "I do not hold that opinion ... that they're weak and vacillating. "I believe in our youth . . . I think they're worthy and that they're trying. And brother, if we don't bank on them, we'd better cash in." Not a very tall man, but husky, Barnes strikes a distinguished appearance. He has thick, curly hair with equal portions of black mixed with grey and a wisp of a mustache. Often, he'll cut the air with his hands to stress a point. And when he's relaxed, he'll sit back, light a cigarette at the end of an ornate holder and puff contentedly. Right about now, he was relaxed. He sat back and lit a cigarette. ". . . The world is moving right fast now and the youth will be slipping into your shoes and mine. "And when they're ready," he leaned forward and cut the air with his hands, "I believe you and I can grow old without worrying our heads off."

Gables Burglars Are Using New Method

Burglars hitting the Coral Gables area are employing a new method of breaking in. Using a torch of some kind, they are burning small holes through screens and glass doors and gaining entry. Gables police report several homes have been broken into in recent days in which this method of operation was used. Latest victims were the James Sottiles, 2225 Indian Mound Trail, early Wednesday morning. Sometime between 1 a.m. and 4:30 a.m., someone burned a hole through a sliding door leading into a living room. Wallets and pocketbooks were gone through and their contents dumped on the floor but only a small sum of money was reported taken.
