To both grew up in Gary ind., married there and at tended Purdue University by the time they reached the end of their Sophomore year the struggle became Over whelming. We were working to support ourselves in school at tending school and trying to maintain our marriage and it was just too much says Brenda who was studying to become a medical technician. They decided to join the air Force. That was five years ago. For the Newberry it meant a new direction. After coining Here from Davis Monthan fab in Tucson ariz., they enrolled in University courses. And both will get Bachelor of science degrees in business in june before going on to Scott fab in Illinois for a new duty tour. There they plan to work toward their master s de Grees.

German to purchases holocaust series Ponn not West German Televik officials said thursday they have i the holocaust series on the nazi nation of the jews for showing i by the end of this year or Early in decision to Purchase the series was not publicly announced was de by Jochen Stinauer a spokesman a regional station that negotiated on of of one of the two major state subs networks As being made by people conscious of the importance of St and the value it can have Fornan  but reaction to the move was mixed. I although the social democratic party s National committee recommended the p snowing of the series Klaus boiling the Preas spokesman for Chancellor Helmut Schmidt said More than a week ago that he was personally opposed to it on the grounds that holocaust appeared to fall Short of the real horror of the annihilation of 6 million jews. Thursday Friedo Sachsen an editor of a jewish weekly All Nemeira of Dusseldorf insisted the Issue was elsewhere and said the Purchase of the american film was pm Bird watcher fads to death Athens up Rainer Knopf. 18.

Ble Matic of what he called West Ger Many s failure to Deal effectively with it sown past. From my Point of View there s nothing to cheer about Sachsen said. The Ger mans should Nave done something like holocaust themselves a Long time ago. So this Purchase represents a failure. It s not a Good sign although i do believe the film should be shown and shown again for every generation in this  Sachsen said his newspaper had received very uneven reports about the series from new York with nazi victims conservatives retain 2 parliamentary seats London up the conservatives retained their parliamentary seats in Toby elections special elections with in creased majorities. The results came As no Surprise since both were regarded As Safe conservative seats. But the swing of voters away from the liberals heartened tory supporters who think the Liberal pact with the labor government is the Only thing that is keep ing the tories out of office. In the Wycombe Buckinghamshire constituency Raymond Whitney upped the conservative majority to 15,568 compared with 9,079 in the general election. In the Southwest London suburb of Epsom and Ewell Archibald Hamilton put the conservative majority up to 20,928 against 16,290 in the general election. Saying it was unrealistic while Young people generally found it worthwhile. Correspondents of National German newspapers in the . Who watched holocaust there seemed to concentrate their attention on the unfortunate juxtaposition of the series scenes of horror and commercials for deodorants and tooth paste and avoided any discussion whether West Germany could profit from seeing it. The problem will be getting people to turn on their sets when it is broadcast said Heinz Galinski the Leader of the Berlin jewish Community. Galinski who has been critical of the teaching of the nazi past in West German schools said you can t Force anybody to watch but perhaps it will be possible for the education ministers of the various states to recommend the program. I feel it s important for the country s future " the decision to Purchase holocaust comes at a time when a number of West German leaders have spoken out against spurts of right Wing Radical activity in the country. Much of it has been entered in the state of lower Saxony where a right Wing group stole arms from a nato by jobless total spurts in Japan Tokyo a unemployment in Japan in March totalled 1.41 million up 140, 000 or 9 s percent from a year earlier the statistics Bureau of the prime minister office said.
