LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Dear Mr. Editor,
Which is more important?
$100.00 dogs or thirteen year old
boys? In the mind of one man
in this town who was too mad
to talk to anyone especially to a
13-year-old boy in front of six-
teen other young people of the
same age, there is no question.
If that madman hasn't been vac-
cinated, I recommend cutting off
bis, head and sending it to Aus-
tin. I wonder if he would do
that is front of his own church;
I wonder if he goes to his church!
This isn't the only long hair,
man-sized dog in this town that
seems to clash with motor scoot
ers. It seems to me, there must
be at least a thousand.
I recommend that all long hair,
man-sized, $100.00 flogs be tied
and muzzled in back* yards,
Yours truly, A Civic-Minded
Reader. ,
