CAN HELP TO COMBAT JUVENILE DELINQUENCY by Robert Kendall. (Bob Kendall--see page 30 of this book-in addition to his work in films, gives frequent lectures on the curbing of juvenile delinquency. He has just recently began barbell training. The alarming rise of juvenile delinquency every year forces everyone to realize we have a serious national problem to cope with. Recently, one cold-blooded teen-age murderer shocked his guard when he demanded, "I want to see the newspaper. Did I make the headlines?" Of course, this is an extreme case of a criminally insane ego-maniac demanding attention at any cost. However, in practically every case of delinquency, the desire-to-get-attention factor is evident to some degree.
Statistics tell us one-third of the marriages end in divorce. The resultant maladjusted young people become a potential problem. Often lack of love results in demands for attention. The young baby cries for attention; the young killer kills for attention. When young boys can't get attention singly, they form gangs. Attention, in and of itself is not wrong. The methods used to obtain it can be right or wrong.
Properly channeled interests command respectful attention. Every young person should strive to balance his life with attention to education, spiritual, and recreational Interests. In over 100 lectures from coast to coast on the topic of juvenile delinquency, I've admonished young people to develop spiritually, educationally and never neglect physically. The three are closely inter-related. Good diet, rest, and lots of body-building exercises are excellent anti-dotes to juvenile delinquency. After all, our bodies deserve the finest care for we are made in the image of God himself.

PHYSIQUE PHOTOGRAPHER FORCED TO SELL PHOTOS TO PAY US GOVT FINE FOR HAVING SOLD NUDE PHOTOS! If this heading sounds confused, it probably isnt half as mixed up as some of the government officials responsible for this paradox. We respect our government (right or wrong) but our confidence in some of its officials is somewhat strained when they behave in a stupid asinine manner. Consider this situation: Some years back physique photographer Jim Hills under the name Richard Roscoe offered for sale aesthetic nude prints which were in perfect taste, following the traditions of all the great artists. Nonetheless PP's editor who was a personal friend to Mr Hills warned him of the strong possibility of government prosecution under the misused Obscenity Statute. Mr. Hills accepted the advice, discontinuing all nudes and forthwith selling only non-nude photos.
Over a year later, the US Government's postal department brought an inditement against Mr. Hills and three other San Francisco photographers (not connected with him) for having mailed out nude photos several years before. Trials followed which made the Moscow purges seem democratic in comparison. The judge indicated in statements to the press that he had prejudged the case and in other ways he proved his incompetency to preside. A professor of art was not allowed to testify --the court claiming his testimony would be "irrelevant". Government attornies were seen talking with the jurors. A study of the transcript of the case clearly indicated that in an appelate court the conviction would have been overturned, but such appeals cost a great deal of money and Mr. Hills was not in a financial position to seek such a remedy.
Hills was given a crippling fine even though the government knew he had a year before voluntarily given up the financially lush nude phota business, and because of declining sales had intended to quite physique photography altogether just before the inditement was sprung. Apparently certain officials were more eager for an impressive spectacle in court than in obtaining their pretended objective of "pure mails".
But now with a catastrophic fine to pay off, he was literally forced to aggressively push his business in order to pay off the unjust fine. Having recently completed his payments, he has now announced his intention to quit physique photography because the whole thing has left such a sour taste in his mouth, and we consider this to be an unfortunate loss to all of us.
In Plato's time, a young man with a talent for portraying beauty would have been subsidized by the government, but certain of our enlight-
