Many officers will tell you that \disturbing the peace\ frequently involves teens playing their music at audio levels that rattle doors, windows, even minds, resulting in neighbors being driven up the wall. Therefore, law enforcement and teen music do come into direct confrontation. And, this can be the beginning of development of an uncooperative attitude toward rules and laws in general. It is not news to parents to say somewhere around the time a child turns 13 he is attacked by what seems to adults to be a attar :e music hug. On r- 'ching this age, he is privileged to enjoy a t...pc ..iusic pack .. the stone age, when men beat on rocks to bi „ak the boring silence of simple existence. At this point the youngster is trying subconsciously to break the home ties, and if the parents show disgust and repulsion, he makes his first break from parental control, making new associations with outsiders who accept those things music and otherwise - in which he finds enjoyment. Granted, to most adults modern teen music is not dissimilar in its effect than a cathartic overdose on an empty stomach two hours before church, but to forbid this and other popular teen likes and dislikes in the home can have an adverse result. The less the parent can tolerate the further away from the family circle the teen will stray in his search for acceptance, understanding and approval. Tiler, is a fine line between \tolerate\ and permissiveness. A part .. an adjust ta .,aring the type of music teens enjoy, while at the same time demanding that sensible volumes in use be observed to spare the neighbors and their own tranquility. Parents can accept, even promote, teen parties in the home - with all the noise that accompanies •- while insisting the rights of peace for others in the family and people living close by are not infringed upon. The parent unable to adjust to the noises of teen living, sets the stage for building barriers in all other areas of the teen parent relationship. Setting rules and seeing to it they are observed is once again the key to successful handling. We in this department appreciate what you are going through while raising your teen youngsters and we will always help make your job easier whenever this is possible. We solicit your cooperation with this department where teens are involved, to make local law enforcement a smooth functioning process and an accepted way of life. Such cooperation will make your teen's growing up years much more enjoyable and a fond memory when reaching adulthood.

The PUG has ordered Hughes Airwest to reduce the fare it charges passengers flying from Boise to Lewiston by $5 --from $45 to $40. The Idaho PUG ordered Hughes Airwest to reduce the fare after a passenger complained the fare from Boise to Spokane was the same as from Boise to Lewiston. Spokane is 90 air miles farther. The airline is challenging the or- der in the Idaho Supreme Court. Awaited is the court's decision of the appeal. Meanwhile, the Idaho PUC de- serves credit for acting in favor of the consumer in a case that is obviously a consumer rip-off. :•:. •::: Ledger Lines by K. A. E Gary Gunderson tells the story about two North Dakotans traveling through Billings and seeing a newspaper headline reading: \Two Montanans wanted for rape.\ \Heck observed one Dakotan to his companion, \those Montana guys are always offered the good jobs.\ And Iry Hutchinson, publisher of the Liborty County Times, reports that Rill Carter and Bert Lance are teaming up to introduce a new beer. It's to be known as Overdraft Beer. Over the years, this newspaper has torn up a number of small checks that totaled two or three hundred dollars because they were in payment for classified ads which the Ledger thought were not true and in some cases could be downright fraudulent. The Ledger has undoubtedly pub- lished an occasional ad that may have been false, but it was done without prior knowledge. Letters to editor Normally, these rip-off ads are easy to detect. A common one is an ad offering the opportunity to make money stuffing or addressing enve- lops at home. Saturday's Missoullan carried a story about the conviction of Freddie I. Browning of Richmond, who advertised in some Montana publications inviting people to send a few dollars in to get the details of how to make money stuffing envelopes. Those who answered the ads received a pamphlet telling them they could make money the way he was --by ad- vertising an envelope stuffing plan. Usually, although not always, ads like that come to newspapers accom- panied by a check in prepayment for the ad. The checks usually are good and some publishers run the ads. Not the Ledger. If we believe an ad is fraudulent or untruthful, we turn it down and tear up the check. We're not infallible. But, we try. Hamill recalls Hawk glory Editor: Thought I would drop a short note to see how things are going. I see by the hedger that the Blue Hawks wrapped up another successful season. Doug (Walsh) certainly has done a great job in maintain- ing the tradition of Blue Hawk football. With the playoffs in full swing it feels as if it were only yesterday that we were preparing for the annual classic with Fairfield. Those two teams really had some good games --games that I know I won't soon forget. Western Montana College has certainly benefited from the talent on tho;.• two teams. My first year here in Glasgow has been an interest ing one. The Scotties have a great football tradition and I enjoy working in it. This year we are either behind or tied at halftime in five of the seven games we played. Out of those five, we won four and came close to getting all of them. I felt our kids did a tremendous job in that respect. I am looking forward to renewing old acquaintences with Ronan people in Malta. I also pick the Chiefs to win it. (Malta won the playoff game Saturday 41 to 13). I would like to say \hi\ to all the Blue Hawk fans and thanks to everyone for the telegram. It was very much appreciated. have a happy Thanksgiv- ing, everyone.
