As one of the earliest House advocates of the 91st Congress law extending the franchise to 18-to-20 year olds, I was es­pecially heartened by the recent popular approval in Maine and a number of other states of referenda designed to lower the minumum voting ages.

Since 1943, when Georgia became the first State to extend the franchise to 18-year-olds, only three other States have estab­lished miniumu voting ages under 21. On Novmeber 3, the num­ber was doubled, Voters in our State and in Nebraska approved voting-age minimums of 20 vears, while the people of Massa-

Bangor golf professional Auxtin Kelley appeared on "Sports Forum" last Monday Night and discussed his idea for a State golf tour. Kelly's idea is .to have Maine's six major golf events s cheduled over five consecutive weeks . This would bring top golfers of the PGA Tour into Maine, and, with over $45,000. 00 in purse money available, should hold them here for the · six tournaments. The fr inge golfers, or "rabbit s ," as they are called, would start the tour in Presque Isle with the Spudland Open. From potato land, they would go to the . Bucksport Open , The Maine Open, The Lakewood Pro-Am, The Jordan Open at Bangor and The Downeast Open at Trenton.

November 19, 1970 Page 7 '

Bangor Brewer YWCA welcomes all women and business girls of Milo and the surrounding area are invited to parti­cipate in activities offered by the YWCA in Bangor from now and until December 11. Classes in Slimnastics and swimming are held on Wednesday and Friday from 9:00 to 10:30 a.m. and on Tuesday and Thursday from 7:00 to 8:45p.m. Slimnastics is a physical fitness and exercise program to reproportion ones body and build up muscle tone. This is acquired through warm ups and standing, wall and floor exercises . Women should wear comfortable clothes and soft sole shoes.

Swimming lessons will be given to those who desire to learn to improve on their swimming. For those who just want to swim a dip period is available. Women bring bathing suit,

. cap and towel. A nursery is available every Wednesday and Friday morn­

ings for those women whohave small chHclren. A small fee is charged for this service. Questions on these programs can be answered by calling Miss Nancy Savage and Mrs. Jan D'Anico at the Bangor Brewer YWCA. Programs are held at the new Bangor YWCA except for the Nursery which is at the YMCA.

PASSAIVIAQUODDY INDIAN WREATH MAKING For many years the Passamaquoddy Indians have· been m·aking

wreathes each Christmas. The Indian worker receives very little benefit for his labor; l1e only gets 30~ for making an item that sells for $3 to $5 when it reaches market. As part of its effort to raise Maine Indian's standard of living the Passama­quoddy Basket Cooperative has struck on the idea of running a small scale wreath- making operation this year .

In cooperation with the Indian owned and operated, fledgling Cooperative, the Division of Indian Services has pledged to help market at least 20 , 000 wreathes in Maine's churches on the first two Sundays of December. If only 200 parishes would be willing to sell 100 wreathes a piece on consignment, this goal could be reached without any financial risk to the parishes.

By the Passamaquoddy plan, the wreath maker will receive 75~ per wreath, two and one half times the rate at which he is presently compensated. The remainder of the $2. 50 per wreath charge, after the deduction of material and transporta­tion costs will be invested into the broadly based basket Coop. This investment will act as a great boost to the Indian's fledling business , encouraging them in their struggle to establish ~them­selves in the mainstream economy, If possible a special ar­rangement may be created to involve the Aroostook County Indians in this project; this ma.tter ts presently under consider-ation, .

Sic to eight distribution points will be established throughout the state on the Saturdays preceding the sale dates of the 6th and 13th. .

To be successful this project will need the cooperation of all the denominations of the state. · ·

These wreaths will be sold in front of the Churches, both Milo and Brownville Jet. before and after the masses Dec. 5, 6, 12, & 13. The High School students will be helping with the project.

If we have wreaths left we will set up in one or gwo of the stores during those two weeks a couple afternoons a week. The place and time to be announced later.

This project is handled by the Catholic Church Parish Board, Social Committee. Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Lufkih and Mr. John Burgoyne.
