Aboard. |. $. $. Falcon, off k"y West. Fla, Feb. 6 LP-Naval oill- cers today prepared for further tests with the enclosed diving bell de- signed by q Groton, Conn" boat company which yesterday proVideH means of escape for two men from the submerged submarine S-i.
 Experiments were arranged III deeper water in an effort to deter mine the utility of the bell under the tide drift of the lower regions
 Two operations with the bells yes tcrday termed "sucCesStul and Sratl- lying" by leaders of the cXpedIuon' demonstrated the usage of the dcNlcc in rescuing persons cntrappcd in dlS- ables undersca craft, The apparatus was operated to a depth of 70 feet two men being taken from the sub marine and raised to the surface.
 Buoy First Released
 A buov first vas released from the S4 with the craft lying on the bot tom of the Gulf Of Mexico. The buoy was attached 10 the bell-like tank and hauled down 10 the submarine | After the bell was seated, 1t was al lowed to rise to the surface under 1 it's own buoyancy.

be given for quality of work rather than that of quantity, quality of a pupil work be indicated with his or her weekly progress, pupils mark be based on daily work and tests and not on assignments done outside of school, which he believes often are done by some older per son.
 That graph cards be marked bi- weekly instead oC weekly as in the present system 10 give teachers ad- Gltionul time to study the marks.
 That the word "dcfcrrod' be used in place of a grade mark where the pupil is absent under cXtcnuating circumstances.
 Additional recommendations in cIuded one that the explanation of tine marking system be printed on the graph card.
 Probably the most radical change recommended by the committee was that the marking system be based on numerals fro.~ 15 to 100, indicating progress in units of five, with 60 or less indicating failure. Mr. Clark oXplaincd that this was not a return to the percentage system but simply a convenience for the parents who wish to know just how much pro- gross their children are making.
 He suggested that these recon moudations he forwarded to the school authorities for furthc1N con- sidcratlon.
 There was TO discussion and the committees report and r""oWmrn- dations were adopted unanimously.
 Mir. Erickson anhounced that tho regular mcctiuga of the association would be held February 17.

SANTA WILL VISIT
 LIGHTHOUSE CREWS
Secretary Lamont Sends His
 Greetings to Workers

Washington, Dec. A (UP) - To thousands of men working for the federal government in far places Of the world came message of Christ mas cheer today from the nations capital.
 Perched on lonely reefs from Alaska to the Virgin Islands, gov ernment lighthouse keepers and their families received the seasons greetings from Secretary of Con- merce Lamont.
 For many days these men, women and children who save uncounted lives each year by their patient guarding of the lamps that warn mariners of perils of the sea, have been preparing for Christmas.
 In many cases, the lighthouse service said, it is necessary to trans port their Christmas dinners to them through rocky reefs by row. boat. In addition, Santa Claus has problem in reaching the 50 an- chored lightships which must keep their post on Christmas just as any other day.
 Prison doors are opening at Leavenworth federal penitentiary for so prisoners to whom paroles were granted in time for most of them to spend Christmas with their families. All so were short-termers who had served d third of their sentences

VESTS PROGRESS SHOWN
 IN CHRISTMAS TREE YARD
Panorama At Base Of Large Green In Home of Newspaperman
 on Park Street

Following d custom which had it's origin in Germany centuries ago and which is still universal in Pennsyl- vania, Ernest R. Dechant, 367 Park street, is featuring a yard beneath his Christmas tree again this year. Hundreds of New Britain residents have seen the yards built by MT. Dechant in former years and on one occasion he produced a replica Of Walnut Hill park around the base of his tree.
 In Pennsylvania the yard is an essential part of the tree and more ornaments are placed there than are hung on the tree. Some of the yards are simple and consist only of a creche or manager scene showing the shepherds adoring the Christ child. Others are much more elaborate and picture entire villages.
 This year Mir. Dechant portrays the progress of American civiliza- tion and has taken as his subject one of the midwest towns made famous by Sinclair Lewis. Half of the yard shows the community in pioneer days when it was nothing but a stockade with several thatch- ed houses, d few head Of cattle and d troop of soldiers to guard the handful of residents, on the frontier. The other half of the yard shows the community as it is today-a f1ourishing city with homes, stores and a church. A railroad train de- picts the march of progress and of- fers a strong contrast to the wild animal life and band of marauding Indians that can be seen attacking the pioneer settlement. A cave with a signal fire forms the background against which the redskins and their British allies are arranged. An arti- ticlal lake also lends a touch of real ism.
 A small body of water above the lake flows over ripping falls down the mountain side. while d flashing signal fire alternately flares and dies out on d nearby mountain top.

B00TLEGGER GRANTED
 CITIZENSHIP BY JUDGE
Contends Possession of Liquor No Bar for Long
 Time Resident.

Cleveland. O., Dec. A (UP)- Sam Cohen, self-confessed bootleg- ger, was free today to become a United States citizen under a ruling by Common Pleas Judge George r. Baer, even though Cohen q year ago was fined s1,G00 and sentenced tc nine months in the workhousc for possessing liquor.
 Judge Baer said in his decision:
 "The possession of liquor is onN a misdemeanor. I do not believ, that it is great enough crim, against the United States to be usel as a. reason for denying citizenship to one who has resided here for 1f years"
 The decision was contested by Le, E. Fox, United States naturalization examiner, who maintained that foreign resident convicted for pos session of liquor should not be eligible for citizenship.

WAGE CUT REJECTED

Brockton, Mass, Dec. A (UP)-- The Brochton Shoe Manufacturers associations proposal for a 10 per cent wage reduction was rejected here last night at a meeting of ex- cXutive boards and business agents of II local shoe unions.
 It was announced the manufaC- turers would be notified in a few days as to the reason for turning down the proposition. The manu- facturers had maintained the cut vas necessary to enable them to compete for the spring trade with manufacturers in other cities who have reduced wages The local man. ufacturers contended there probably would be little reduction in weekly pay envelopes because of increased orders made possible by lower pro- duction costs.
