Shows Falling Off in Lower Grades

Shows Falling Off in Lower Grades
But An Increase in Upper
Although the State has spent
more than S10O,OOO,OOO during the
last eight years for the construc-
ton of new school buildings the
gross enrolment between 1927 and
1885 in grades from one to six has
decreased 343, according to statis-
tics DR.. H. V. Holloway, State SUI
perintendent of public instruction,
submitted to the lower house of the
Delaware Legislature Monday af-
ternoon. The same period was
marked by a big increase in grades
seven to twelve The data has
been requested by Representative
Simon in accordance with the sug-
gestion of Governor C. Douglass
Buck who had stated in his bien-
NAL message to the assembly that
before additional school buildings
are authorized sit might be well to
take cognizance of report that
the number of children in the pri-
mary grades of our free schools is
diminishing" The report showed
the gross enrolment for 1928 in
grades one to six was 1866 while
the corresponding enrolment for
1933-34 was 29,O23. DR.. Holloway
pointed out, however, that the en-
rollment in grades seven to twelve
was 1908 in 1925 and 19,247 in
1933-34, an increase of 6244. He
said in the higher grades the per
pupil cost is much in excess of that
in the first six grades.

 Gee. seeing funny fish cavort beneath the water will be sport. Perhaps we can find lots of little ones with whom to play"
 Just then the kindly rocket man up to the happy Tinies ran. Said he. I'm going to leave you, now. I'm due back in the sky.
 'I know my fgriend, the water man, will do for you the best he can. There's nothing else that I can do. so I will say goodby."
 The whole bunch shook his hand and then they started waving at him when he crawled into his rocket. Dotty heaved real long sigh.
 Said he, "I hate to see him so. Such real kind friends are nice to know" And then the rocket zoomed and disappeared up in the sky.

but my mind was full of other
things.
AS stepped from the ship, a girl
of the young f1apper type-com-
plimented me on the landing That
was too much. 1 knew better,
but she didn't.
And to make matters worse, my
fellow pilots were listening. I tried
to agree with her, then-anything
to get away. "Oh, it was okeh," I
muttered.
mo-" she insisted, 1T was grand

We'll, what do you call good

asked.

QUESTION-What is directional
stability?
That is the tendency of a plane
to return to its original or normal
position when disturbed
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1935-08-26

"HERES one point on which
4 every airman is open to critl-
cism and teasing--and that's on the
kind of landing he happens to make.
And the pilot doesn't live who
hasn't made bad landing and who
won't make more of them.
The psychology of being touchy
about landings, goes back to the
early training days of aviators. It's
always easy to take a training ship
off the ground, but the first time
student puts both wheels and the
tail skid on the ground at the same
time and without bouncing the
plane into the air again, he really
begins to believe he will be pilot.
A f1ier is just as sensitive about
his landings as the golfer is about
his stance and the swimmer about
his form. If he is flying a little
maneuverable plane, he may have
his own distinctive way Of side
slipping down to within few feet
of the ground before leveling off
or if it's a giant transport, the pilot
may approach the ground in a
grand sweeping glide.
But, however he may do it, the
pilot must not bounce the ship
around or rock it perilously.
Some years ago after breaking
the worlds speed record. I had
difficult time landing my racer. I
had undersetimated the ships speed
and we landed at 90 miles an hour
when the approach speed should
have been 70 or &c. The wheels had
just kissed the grass and rolled
about so yards, when the plane
slipped into the air again. There
was nothing to do but jockey the
controls to keep the wing level, be-
cause we had almost run out of
airport"
The next time the wheels touched,
the plane was in bad position for
landing e. first en- one wheel, then
on the other, while the nose bobbed
up and down. But finally We came
to a standstill I wasn't salts
fed with the landing by any means,
