Robert Kennedy sincerely believed he was going to be the next President after the successful California primary.
Murder put a stop to a great political career, most of us agree, despite political differences.
Many people sincerely believe, like Bobby, that he would have beaten Nixon, who had a hard enough time as it was with Hubert.
Read the other day one of the fastest-moving and biggest money makers today are cosmetics for Negro women. Many cosmetic companies have been reluctant to take on the project but at least one offered chemists and came up with a half dozen facial products that are whopping all previous sales.
What cosmetics did Negro women use before the new products came out? Nothing, the Negro expert returned: Black is beautiful.
To Judge Davis—and his secret murder trial in Grand Island:
Nuts!
Admittedly, indoor swimming pools are about as popular with the electorate as an outdoor privy in January.
Harlan, Ia., and Norfolk, Nebr. voters have put down proposals in those towns, but that doesn't mean Nebraska City wouldn't support it.
Nebraska City voters have done some strange things . . . like overwhelmingly supporting a new water system, turning down seven high school bond issues, okaying the next and giving a first-ballot nod a few years later to the space age grade school and rebuilding of Hayward park and following that with rejecting a proposal to change the 50-year old form of government.
Just proves what I've always said before: When the voter steps inside that canvas poll, he's the king and master of all decisions, and rightfully so.
Nebraska City needs a place for high school graduates who don't go on to college—a trade school.
Years ago I used to think a college would be best, but since the cost of education has gone skyhigh, a trade school seems a more reasonable way.
I don't know anything about costs, location or any of those details. I'm looking for another step for kids today to get a better start in life besides two years of hup, two, three, four. Undoubtedly there are federal funds available and if someone doesn't take advantage, poof, then someone or some other town will.
Look at the by-products: Nebraska City could have a need for a YMCA, and that alone could be the stepping stone for that indoor pool, complete with all-winter long recreation grounds.
And, the addition of other teach ers and their families, homes and cars are a compliment to the community.
And as food for thought, a suggestion that Nebraska City or Otoe county organize a "Little Hoover" commission, much like the state organization, would be a worthwhile study.
How do you feel?
