AUGUST 25, 1976 MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' (Continued from page 1) local league, said members would be stationed in a Market Place business place Aug 27, and again at the bank corner of Green and Elm Sejftf 10 to obtain signatures These are not legal petitions so it is not necessary to be registered to sign. The represent only a desire on the part of the citizenry to hear such a debate The advantages are numerous, chief among them the opportunity for millions of people to become better in formed The only disadvantage we can see is the opportunity for a candidate with charisma and a special talent for conveying his views to overshadow some good, common sense views of an opponent with less magnetism. This has been done on more than one occasion since the advent of television. It can be done again. In the case of the two presidential candidates of 1976, this seems highly unlikely, however. As politicians go, we would classify them as low- keyed individuals who just might win voter appeal by what they have to say rather than the way they say it. K.A.F.
