WICA
— OUTSTANDING: Changes could be coming to Illinois high schoolers’ foreign language requirements if a unanimously passed bill is signed into law. Right now, students are required to take two years of a foreign language. Senate Bill 3070 would give schools and students the flexibility to choose to take two years of a language, or take two years of “career and technical education” courses.

WASHINGTON TIMES
— Youths aren’t bothering to get summer jobs. The kids are not all right. DD: When you were young, what did you do after-school, weekends, and summers? I did yard work in 1962, 1963, and 1964. I delivered newspapers 1962-1966. I washed dishes 1964-1966. I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966. I delivered mail 1966-1969. According to my critics/opponents, the aforesaid proves that I have always been an unmitigated loser. With the money I earned, I bought a 1958 Chevrolet BelAir when I was 16 in 1964. I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint, poor man’s GTO, when I was 17. I bought a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 when I was 19. And I bought a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE when I was 20. I used the aforesaid cars to get to/from jobs and classes at Crete-Monee High School 1964-1966, classes at UIC 1966-1968, and classes at NIU 1969-1970.
