Friday, February 22, 1963 THE NEW BERN MIRROR, NEW BERN, N. C. Page Three As a typical New Bern mother, do you ever have the urge to go back to school’ Members of parent-teacher associations in Chicago are in the classroom once more, not for an academic course but to get instruction designed to make them better parents. Their textbook, published by The Fund for Adult Education, outlines its aims as “theknowl edge and understanding which they need to bring up children who will become mature, re sponsible citizens, able to func tion in and maintain a free, democratic society.’’ The mothers have turned pupil in response to an invitation is sued by their local parent- teacher associations, with co operation of the Chicago Public Schools. The current course, one of the 169 that have been taught, is “Parenthood in a Free Nation.’’ One of the recent subjects discussed was “Establishing Feelings of Security and Ade quacy.’’ Out of an exploration of the problem, several points were arrived at. The first step is for parents to clarify their ideas as to what is right to do, then to have enough “inner se curity’’ to establish their own standards. Once these are defined the parents can say to their child, “If Patty’s family does it that way, that’s fine for them, but our family does it differently.’’ And the parents may then say to their child that everyone has a right to be different. “If everybody is wearing beanies, and you don’t like to wear one, that is your busi ness. Wear what you like.’’ Come to think of it, that’s pretty good advice for adults too, al though few of them have suf ficient backbone to risk the scorn of others by refusing to yield to popular whims that hold no appeal for them. Whatever you do, convince your child and yourself that choosing according to our own mind and heart is one of our great privileges.

When Coach Bob Lewis and his New Beni High school basketballers journey to Kins ton Friday night for a return battle with the league-leading Red Devils, more than victory will be involved. The game’s outcome won't have a drastic effect one way or another on Northeastern Con ference standings. Pat Taylor’s quint has already asserted It self as the front runner, and New Bern dropped out of the picture as a regular season con tender some time ago. What keeps it from being an ordinary contest is the ancient sports feud between the two towns. No one living knows how old the feud is, but It was going hot and heavy back In the nine teenth century, and has festered occurrences that didn’t always reflect credit on the com munities represented. Fans, overly agitated, have been guilty of varying degrees of violence. In one past gen eration, for example, Kinston rooters infuriated by a New Bern baseball victory attacked an ex cursion train loaded with New Bern fans and did extensive damage to the cars. Outnumbered, the New Bernians decided discretion was the greater part of valor, and beat a hasty retreat. Unfortun ately. the train was halted above Neuse river, outside the Lenoir town, and a number of local fans ended up in the stream. This year, when tlie Bears and Devils met here in their first bsketball encounter, an official’s questionable decision in the last seconds of play killed New Bern’s chance to pull an upset. When such things happen, it doesn’t help matters. A victory for the Bruins Fri day night, on Kinston’s home court, would be an even greater upset.
