By Rodney Lee

Why do we expect so much of our heroes, anticipating that they-God­ like-will ever prevail? We allow them · no room for error, as if to do so would in some sinister way tarnish us and them. We accord them more recogni­ tion than they deserve, given the rather feeble impact they have on the Grand Scheme, but worse, we ask of them more than they are able to give under the best of circumstances. Surely such twisted thinking must have been at work when we (i.e., the nation) lost our collective good sense in pushing the space program to the · point where it choked on its own ravenous appetite and then, in those awful hours immediately following the hideous demise of ChaUenger earli­ er this year, we mixed our tears with such inappropriate ''humor'' as _that the acronym NASA had come to stand for, "Need Another Seven As­ tronauts." We handle national trage­ dies not with the complete and unremitting remorse that such events are meant to inspire, but with a strange combination of despondency and frivolity that could be construed to suggest that we covet those we look up to only until they let us down (even if through no fault of their own), at which point they are cast aside like lepers.

By Jack Malone

Establishing an agenda for another term as Treas­ urer of the Commonwealth has not been a dominant rallying cry for Robert Q. Crane in this, his seventh run for the office. He has held the position for 22 years and now he is pursuing another term in what he says is the only job he wants at this point in his political career. He will not say if this is the last term he is going to seek, either. Indeed, he has not had to say what will be changed if elected. Rather, the 60-year-old Brighton native has taken the simple "let the num­ bers speak for themselves" posture. When challenged during this campaign, he has continuously pointed to the sound fiscal structure of the state. The financial stability that echoes from his office is the only real point he has relied on this fall.

It was NOT William P. Monahan. He has lived for 25 years in the Allston/Brighton, Belmont, Cambridge, and Watertown Senatorial District. He and his family have · -roots here.

·His opponent, Michael Barrett, moved into a Cambridge address in the district nine months ago after having been a State Representative from Reading and after running for Congress in the district that includes Reading, Billerica, Malden, and Tewksbury. If he is not a carpetbagger, he's certainly a will-of-the-wisp.

Bill Monahan, an attorney and administrative director of community child p~ychiatry at the Tufts-New England Medical Center, has been in the forefront of freeing teen-agers from drugs. He helped to found Project Turnabout, a successful drug treatment program twenty years ago.

His opponent, Michael Barrett, voted against mandatory sentences for drug-pushers and against increasing the legal drinking age to twenty-one.

Bill Monahan has lived in the Senatorial District for 25 years. Bill has been chairman of the Belmont Selectmen for three terms.

Bill Monahan believes in: • An affordable home ownership and rental housing act. • Mandatory sentencing of repeat drug offenders. • More severe penalties for those convicted of drunken driving. • Return of excess tax revenue to the taxpayers and/or local government. Bill Monahan has degrees from Boston State College, Boston College and Suffolk Law School. A QUALIFIED, INDEPENDENT THINKER. Vote for William P.
