MEET TO CHOOSE
MAYOR, CLERK
FOR GREENBELT
Town Council Also Due
To Name Manager

GREENBELT, Md, Nov. 20.
Members Of the newly-elected town
council Of Greenbelt, Federal
model community near Berwyn,
Md, will meet tonight for the
first time to elect a mayor, q town
clerk, and a town manager.
Under the terms of the town
charter as drafted by the Farm
Security Administration authori,
ties and approved by the State
Legislature, the mayor may be
be selected by the council from
among its own members. The
town clerk may be any citizen Of
Greenbelt.
Although the charter specifies
that there is to be town manager
and a community manager, it is
believed that the council tonight
will vote to consolidate the two
offices. The town manager is sup
posed to be appointed by the coun-
Gil from the residents Of the town
to work in cooperation with the
community manager, who Is ap-
pointed by the Federal authorities.
Roy s. Brsden, community man.
ager, has pointed out that only
$500 has been allocated as the
salary for the town manager and
that it will be virtually impossible
to find person to serve for that
amount.
If the officers are consolidated,
Braden, who was formerly county
manager Of Arlington county, Va,
will probably be named to hold
both positions.
After the council meeting, sched-
uled for 1880 in the council cham.
Der Of the administration build
ing, the members will attend q
Citizens Association meeting in
the auditorium of the schoolhouse.

Boxes Useful

for hats. For our first idea, get
several of the large spools carpet
warp comes on, sandpaper them
smooth, and enamel them in bright
colors. You can add design to the
upright center or around the bottom
piece. Glue or nail the spools along
the edge Of your closet shelf, and
you'll have a safe home for the
perkiest hat.
Or you can use round cereal boxes
covered with wallpaper. oilcloth or
silk. Cut . strip little longer than
your box, so it will overlap on the
cover and the bottom. Glue this evenly
to the box, cutting the overlap 30 it
will lie nat. Now cut and glue .
circle on the top, then glue the finished
box to the shelf.
For another home" take two or
three cardboard millinery boxes and
cut wide pieces out of the fronts.
Glue the covers on securely, then glue
the boxes one on top of the other
with the openings In front. Cover the
boxes with glazed chintz, leaving the
openings free. Cut 1t long enough to
gather top and bottom, and tie the
ends together. Add strip over the
openings, fastening it at the top only

Debates in
Emergency
Escapes From Peril
. by Disappearing
Under Water.

THE familiar tactics Of ducks In
escaping enemies, either through
flight or diving beneath the water,
have been improved upon by one type
of bird known as the ruddy duck
This particular species, being heavy
is slow taking off from the surface of
the water and, if diving, would leave
large ripple to mark the spot of
submergence. Nature, as usual seems
to have equipped the ruddy ducks to
offset their natural disadvantage by
a different method Of escape.
The birds, at the first sign of danger,
appear literally to deflate and disap-
pear straight down in the water
rather than go under in the usual
slanting dive which reveals the direc-
ton in which the bird is heading.
A hunter, with scarcely ripple to
mark where the bird went down, Is
entirely at loss to know where to
watch for the emergence Of the ruddy
duck.
The pied-bill grebe follows the tac-
tics of the ruddy duck, but, despite
this unusual behavior, it is seldom
recorded in bird lore. DR. Clarence
Cottam of the Bureau of Biological
Survey, a specialist in bird life, re-
porting on the habits of these two
birds, says that he first noticed the
sinking escape while investigating bird
refugees along the South Carolina
coast,

new museum group ready and waiting
to be cut out and assembled by you
every Sunday In The Star.
Most large museums Of natural
history are divided into four or five
departments One department is
called geology and its specimens and
cases tell the story of rocks and min
erals and how our earth was made.
The second department is botany and
tells the story of plants. The third Is
zoology and tells the story Of animals.
The fourth is called anthropology, or
the story of man. And the fifth de-
partment is one Of exploration. 1t is
this department which send scien-
tist-explorers into remote places to
gather material for the entire museum.
A PSYCHOLOGISTS dig for lost and
buried cities. Ethnologists study
the living people as they are today.
There are herpetolo9ists gathering
reptiles, entomologists hunting rare
insects, paleontologists uncovering the
fossil bones OF animals that lived mil
lions of years ago. When specimens
are brought back to the museum, then
artists, sculptors and taxidermists
work for months making them into
groups for every one to see.
The World Museum" which The
Sunday Star will bring to you every
Sunday, has these same depart
ments-and, an extra one for Cur
rent Events" You will find the de-
partment name on the front OF most
of the dioramas and even the division
of that department to which the group
belongs.
From next Sunday on, every Sunday
The Star elects you president and

Museum" You are the director, the

partment and all men under him.

until month or so ago, added gayety
and zest to numerous student functions

Since he was l3 years old Jack has
been popular entertainer, and he says

so studied piano until her death
five years ago." he said, "and then
when the lessons stopped-I decided to
keep on with music anyway, because of
her wishes
His first effort as an independent
musician was the organization of a
dance orchestra at Powell Junior High
School-a group of players who called
themselves the Powell Maniacs"
1T was pretty terrible name and I
euecs We were pretty terrible. too," Jack
said, but we had plenty of fun"
School officials Who remember the
"Maniacs" recall that their services,
furnished gratis at several school
dances, enabled Powell to raise tidy
sum for various activities.
From junior high Jack progressed
to Central and it was a matter of only
few months before he was building up
another band. known first at the
"Commodores," the players soon called
themselves Jack Whites Orchestra, "
and printed business cards read simply,
Jack Whites Music"
Engaged frequently for high school
dancers, the orchestra earned a def
mite niche in school social activities.
Its last important appearance-as a
feature attraction of Centrals star

much advance publicity in the Central
Bulletin.
Though most of his experience in
music has been with the dance variety
Jack processes keen pleasure in CLASH

Of the Central High School Orchestra

as its leader during rehearsal.

to be alive although they do not move
They are placed on rocks surrounded
by green plants and the backgrounds
are so cleverly painted that as you
stand in front Of group you seem
to be looking into far distance In
fact. it is very difficult to tell where
the rocks and plants In the foreground
meet those painted in the background
I helped make some OF these museum
groups.
REORE constructing a group, a
small plan OF 1t is usually made
in model form. This model Is a de-
tailed miniature of a big museum
group 1t is a complete "diorama. :"
For example, 4-inch tiger is modelled
in wax and placed on the side OF a
wax mountain, the background is
sketched in and the whole thing
painted in bright colors These
miniature dioramas are about IA
inches long. When placed before you
you could readily imagine yourself
looking at the real thing.
However, this kind of museum dio-
rama takes long time to build
Sometimes weeks. I used to think
what fun a youngster would have If
he could build a series OF these do
ramas for himself Why. he would
have a complete museum for his very
own!
Yet, as I thought more about it, I
realized that such project would
take him years TO finish and cost
thousands of dollars
But, wouldn't it be fun if a person
could make a diorama group in an
hour or so? What sport it would be
if children all over the country could
build. not one group-but dozens, until
each one had an entire museum OF
his own
Then the idea came to me- News
papers! Newspapers are everywhere
and they cost almost nothing. If I
made these diorama groups in cut
outs, then every Sunday young people
could make something news.
What should these cutout dioramas
be about? l decided that you and
your friends might want me to tell the
story that real museum tells-the
story of what has happened and what
is happening in our world. One week
there might be divers searching for
treasure under the sea. Again, there
would be elephants in jungles, or dino
saurs Of past ages or odd people liv-
ing in caves. There would be ships
sailing and planes blazing new air
trails. All the romance of the past
and the present and the future could
be pictured in a series of such dio-
ramas.
And this is how The World Mu-
scum" came about. You will find a

at all, for they're having bean relay.
The starter has blown the whistle and
they're of! The players are divided
into two groups Of equal number. They
sit facing each other and each person
holds a spoon ins his mouth with the
bowl extended, the handle between his
teeth.
An equal number of beans is placed
in the spoon of the person at the head
of each line The first player empties
the beans into the spoon of the next
player without touching his spoon
with his hands. The next player does
the same, until the beans are in the
last players spoon.
While as much speed as possible is
urged upon the struggling players,
they soon flnd that the one who is
hasty is the one who spills the beans"
and loses the game for his side. The
object of the relay is to see which side
can pass the beans down the line and
lose the fewest. The side which can
count the most beans at the end Is the
winner.

For it was the necessity of providing
