of all? Not in Montgomery, Ala.,
but in a suburb of Los Angeles

forget the destruction in Detroit,
Omaha, Chicago., and
Cleveland?
We Southerners are not the

Dear Tenn: You speak the

bigots these days;

Fpr .the love of God, Ann,, tell
these people that's the poorest

be there. Thank you.---Half-

boy friend, Frank; who; arrived
with another buddy, both on the

asked me if she could let Frank
give tier a ride. I had just read
your column on the dangers of
motorcycles and I said "No!"
The three huddled briefly and 1
caught wind of Frank's little
plan. Karen could meet them
two. blocks frbm our home and
have her little, ride and I'd
never know. I then heard Karen
say, "No–I wouldn't do that."
Frank blew up and yelled,
"Same old Karen! No cheating!
No lying! No nothing!"
How proud. I was of that
child. And thankful to you, too,
