Brady's BLARNEY Hy A Kra'ijr J. P. CULLS FROM A NEWSMAN'S NOTEBOOK : Political question of the week: How did those two Kennedy hate get mixed in with all the Nixon hats at the big G.O.P. rally last Wednesday night? Typographical errors ran ram pant through my column last week. Question: Who's tfrylng to sabotage me? Dr. J. W. Kahn Is now "pilot ing" a little black VW. Says he loves It. Which just gees to prove I that the compacts are here to stay. It sure was thrilling to see the fortunes of the annual W.N.C. Fat Cattle Show and Sale swing back to Macon County this year.

Pat Stock Show and Sale Held for Macon County Calves! I always was taught to spell FOR EXPERT AUTO BODY REPAIRS Auto Painting ?

Lon Dalton shakes his head in disbelief when you call him "Mr. Lucky." The load of logs that toppled over on his car came very close to carving his name on a : tombstone. He says he's been j wearing wood cut knocking it ever J since. This newsman considers him self foitunate also. He was right | in front A Mr. Dalton when the ! accident happened. If those logs had landed on my j little sports car they'd still be j looking under the pavement to lo- i cate my remains! Don't mind receiving letters ? pro or con ? but It would be nice if you letter writers would sign your names. If something is worth saying it Is worth backing up, isn't it? Some wag said there were 60 cirs in the Gavin caravan ? 30 of them had out-of-state license tags filled with people looking at the fall colors. It's an unwise parent who tells a child the moon Is made of green cheese. The kid very likely will soon be able to hop in his space ship and prove that it isn't. The new stretch of Blue Ridge Parkway from Soco Gap to Balsam Gap has opened one of the most beautiful areas in our mountains for all to admire. A steady stream of cars ? in cluding this newsman's ? poured over the new stretch from Water Rock Gap to Balsam Sunday af ternoon. The fall color and some of the most breathtaking oven looks on the entire Parkway join ed to make this a most enjoyable afternoon drive. The drive also brought back some fond memories. My father-in law and I used to grouse hunt in the Soco area where the Parkway now goes. It's some of the most LOOK OPEN HOUSE Another NANTAHALA QUALITY HOME Saturday, November 5th ? 2 to 5 p. m. G.

You notice, of course, that I say we "used to" hunt there. Hie years and short breath force us to now seek less rugged territory. "Now you see why we used to come home worn out after hunt ing in here." I explained to the wife. "Frankly, I don't see how you managed to get in and. back out." she answered. Although Thanksgiving hasn't arrived and Christmas is a "fur piece" off. the post office informs us that little Dillard Passmore, as early as October 11, mailed his let ter to Santa Claus.

Dillard, your letter was forwarded from here to the North Pole on the Echo Satellite. I. ?" - wTcan meet the challense From Cuba to the Congo, from Turkey to Tokyo, the world is in I turmoil, breaking the old allegiances. Here at home too many areas of our national life suffer from neglect. A dazed Republican Administration is so lacking in purpose and ideas that America is in increasing danger of being second best in the world struggle. We can meet the challenges of a stormy world with the leadership of a man and a party that will face our problems and do something about them. "The challenging sixties demand that the next President place himself in the thick of the fight, that he care passionately about the fate of the people he leads." These are the words of leadership, the words of Senator John F. Kennedy, Democratic candidate for President. Your choice is between a party of action and a party of indifference. Between a man of principles and a man of question marks. It is time for a Democratic President who will bring new American leadership. It is time to elect John F.
