The thlrten-mem-bar group proposed major reforms tn Its 31-page report, lust released. Some of them arei (1) A reduction In the number of programs containing violence. j) Complete elimination of violence from children's pro. grams, excepting fanciful or exaggerated tales. (8) The scheduling of crime and other stories containing con slderable violence only after nine p.m. (4) Permanent federal finan cing of Public Broadcast Corpor ation to enable It to offer the American public alternatives to the shoddy commercialism and violence of network stations. No one can estimate the vast amount of crime and violence which has already been caused by U.S. commercial television. The most shameful aspect of thla record is the persistent effort of the network officials to deny a c odd action between television violence and the real thing. The Elsenhower Commission puts it bluntlyi "Violence on television encourages violent forms of behavior and fosters moral and social values about violence in dally life .which are : unacceptable In a civilised so ciety." Surely Congress must now at long last act to bring the networks into line on the basis of this report and clean up the disgrace of American commer cial television. Hopo ... An aura of hope pervades the American Cancer society's of. flees. NO claims of miraculous cancer cures are being made or even predicted. But, nonethe less, there is a distinct feeling the battle against the dread disease is slowly and surely be ing won. The reason for this hopeful feeling can be found in many areas. Last year, for example, the President was Informed that the number of Americans alive and cured of cancer had grown to 1,800,000, a hundred thousand higher than the year before. To be considered cured of most types of cancer, a person must nave been free from all evidence of the disease for five years af ter treatment. Discoveries of new drugs have helped in theflght against leukem ia, cancer of the blood-forming tissues. These new drugs, to gether with more efficient utiliz ation of earlier drugs, plus more specific techniques have helped a autnoer of leukemia patients live beyond five years.

CHURCH STREET the 0) Weekly, Hertford, N. C Thursday, Perquimans rs Rip Haw Bern Striking with all the fury and cunning attributed to their mas cot, Perquimans Union's green Panthers startled the warrior a of New Bern's, J. T. Barber High School. When nineteen minutes of the first half bad expired, Wlnfall had stunned the visitors by a score of 30-0. The onslaught started with quarterback, Percy Davis hitting right end Leant us Etberidge with a ten yard pass and the lanky end sped down the sideline for 60 yards and the game's first score. The extra point try was no good. Minutes later right halfback Chester Jordan sped through a gaping bole to score standing. Vicky Shamble took a pass from Davis for a two point conversion, and the first quarter ended with Perquimans Union sporting a 14-0 lead over 4A Kingpin, J. T. Bar ber, In the second quarter the war riors of Barber tried desperately to muster a drive, but the brutal and vicious Panthers sensing an Important UU, menacingly thwarted each attempt that the boya of New Bern made. Moving with machine like precision the Panthers ran at will against a team that some said, "would be too much for a airiU school like Perquimans Union." In the early minutes of the second quarter, Davis again hit Leamus Etherldge with a 45 yard touchdown pass. Davis with a good fake, waltzed into the end zone for two points, making the score 22-0. After a blocked Uckby Ce cil James and Thomas Mitchell put the ball on New Bern's 15 yard tine, Davis banded off to Chester Jordan, who Jetted into the end zone standing. Davia again found two(2polntalntheendzone to up the acore 30-0. At this point, Barber's Coach and team had had enough of the wilt striking Panthera and in a move unprecedented in Perqui mans Union football history, withdrew from the field with 5 minutes of the first half remain ing. Barber was never in the game after Perquimans kicked off to them, v All of the Panthers were val iant with yeoman workbelngdone in the line by Joseph Moore, Preston Felton, Christopher Smith, Bernard Hurdle, Vicky Shamble, Cecil James, Henry ists that a cure for leukemia may be found sooner than for many other types of cancer. These are but a few of the hope ful; factors today which surround the whole subject of cancer. Yet, the battle still has a long way to go. Research must be intensified and carefully channeled, but there's a glimmer of light in the horizon. And we recommend the American Cancer Society's 1969 theme: Help yourself with a checkup and others with a check.

WHY ISRAEL DIVIDED International Sunday School Lesson for October 8, 1869 MEMORY SELECTION: "Righteousness exalteth a natloni but aln is arepoachtoanypeople." (Proverbs 14:34) - LESSON TEXT: I Kings 18-16. Our memory selection for this week Is the context of this Lesson "Righteousness exalteth a nation; but aln Is a re proach to any people". (Provers 14:34). . Upon the death of Solomon and the succession of his son, Rehoboam, Israel faced a time of crisis. Under Solomon's rule Israel had prospered; this, however was not accom pllshed without the levying of fairly heavy taxes; so, the people, feeling dissatisfied and moved to protest, approach ed Rehoboam, appealing for relief from the heavy taxation they had been shouldering for such a long time. Rehoboam, however, turned a deaf ear to their pleas. Thus it was that Israel became divided. It was not solely because of taxation, however, that this came about. Many Israelites were greatly disturbed by the introduction of pagan shrines and pagan worship into their midst. They sincerely believed that Israel had a Covenant with the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and that this Covenant should be eealously guarded and adhered to. This background provided fertile soil for the return of , Jeroboam, who had at one time been an overseer for public works under King Solomon, and who had fled to Egypt after en unsuccessful attempt to stir the people into revolt. The. newe of Solomon's death brought Jeroboam returned to Israel, hoping to succeed where once he had failed. Bis second attempt was successful, and Israel was divided into two parts the kingdom of Judah, supported by the tribe of Judah and the tribe of Benjamin, and the Northern King dom, supported by the other ten tribes. ': : Jerepoam, however, was far from secure In his rule. Me felt constrained to win Israel away from her ties with Jerusalem, lest the people be won back to the support of Rehoboam. He therefore aet up two graven images in the form of two golden calves, placing one in Dan and one in Bethel, and these be called on the people to worship. Idols, try again In the national Ufa of Israeli The separation and division which Israel experienced has a frightening and familiar ring for us tpdayl The world le divided in Us opinions, Us outlooks In fact, la Just about, everything we can think of I The generations are divided. . . not just by years, but by belief and by trends. While the division of Israel came about in Reboboam'e reign (had was, in part, brought about by bis unbending ; attitude to the will of the people, and this failure to listen to older and wiser counselors) still, his father, Solomon, also shared in the responsibility tor the sundering of hither to close ties. We are constrained to ask, therefore, by comparison what will come about in the life-time of our children? Are we sowing the seeds of dlvlsiveness for our youngoters to inherit? Are the materialistic outlooks so prevalent among us today, shaping what is to coma for our children, and our fjanizTnl Pe;Va, however, man's apparent conquest of space can be e s-virg grace.
