Editorial on under thirty voters and the 1972 election
The piece argues that while a vocal leftist minority mobilizes youth for demonstrations, the vast majority of under-30 voters earn a living, pay taxes, and contribute to communities. It contends leftist militants seek to undermine freedom and warns that Miami Beach Democrats lean left, but cautions against assuming a mass radical shift. The author urges use of the ballot on November 7 to curb leftist manipulation and defend liberty.

The piece argues much of what is labeled folklore is fakelore crafted from literary sources rather than authentic oral tradition. It highlights Richard Dorson’s coinage fakelore and cites Paul Bunyan as an example while noting genuine folklore can emerge from memory, personal tales, and local history, though it faces transformation in print.
