SCIENCE CLUB VISITS BROAD
CASTING STATION

Friday evening, the members of the
Science Club of our high school with
their sponsor, Mr.. Jones, journeyed to
Salisbury, there to visit the broad
casting station WSAL.
They were guided through the sta
ton by Mr.. Long, the announcer. First
they entered the large broadcasting
room; there they saw the types of
microphones in use, the type and the
manner of matter used in the con-
struction of the budding. The small
er room proved very similar to the
large. The club had the very for
tunate opportunity of examining new
set of controls being installed at the
time.
The club is very grateful for having
had this opportunity to better under
stand the processes through which a
broadcast goes before being received
in the home.

ming society will be entertained by the

ALUMNAE VS. SNOW HILL HIGH
AS a special feature of attraction
for the Goldey College boys basket
ball game, the girls alumnae team
played the high school. A little prac-
tice filed off the rusty spots of the
graduates and the game got under
way.
During the first half. despite the
alumnae's advantage of height, the
school cagers lead the parade to the
green pastures of victory. A storm,
so to speak, came up, resulting in a
series of goals on the part of the alum
nae, nearly equalling the high school.
The school cagers never gave up the
ship, but through constant and steady
firing beat back the opposing foe,
thus clearing the path till their hopes
came true.
After the smoke of rivalry had
somewhat cleared, a score of 81 to Is
was found stretched out on the score
board. The high school team then
relaxed peacefully in the green oasis
of victory leaving the alumnae to fare
best they could in the scorched desert
of defeat.

SKETCH ARRANGED
FOR CHEST GROUP
"Where Your Money Goes"
to Be Presented at Meet
ing Next Monday.

A dramatic sketch. depicting Where
Your Money Goes" will be presented
at the Community Chest annual meet
ing in the United States Chamber Of
Commerce Building next Monday,
when trustees representing contribu-
tors on the Chest board will be elected
Dennis Connell, known as the dean
Of amateur dramatics in Washington,

illustrate this story with a series of
living pictures based upon actual cpl
Sodes.
An exhibit prepared by the Council
OF Social Agencies will show the re-
suits Of studies during the last year
in health, housing. relief and social
problems. Much of the councils social
planning is based on these studies,
which guide the spending Of Chest
funds to meet the city's most vital
needs.
One Of the studies reveals that q
large percentage of all the Washing
ton residents who now are imprisoned
at Lorton come from q small area in
the central part Of the city, toward
which much Of the crime prevention
efforts Of the Chest agencies are di-
rected.

are directed most iniensively to the 1s
square blocks in which studies show
that the infant death rate is three
times as high as the average for the
United States.

the last year are eligible to attend
the meeting and vote for trustees.

BOOST IN Minimum
PAY HELD POSSIBLE
Failure to Put Unemployed Back
Into Industry Blamed for
Low Incomes.

A minimum income far above that
now enjoyed by workers Is technically
possible. DR.. Mordecai Ezekiel, eco
nomic adviser to the Secretary Of Ag-
riculture, declared last night in lec-
ture at the Jewish Community Center.
DR.. Ezekiel put the blame for low
incomes on the present economic sys-
tenn for failing to make full use Of the
productive efficiency Of employed
workers and falling to put unemployed
workers back into industry
He saw three causes for the unavail-
ability of higher standards Of living
for workers. First. the system Of
competition which has become 30
creaky and rusty in its operation that
it can no longer be depended upon" I"
Secondly, he attributed the failure Of
the existing economy to come nearer
to its potential output to the fact that
there Is no knowledge on which
rational economic policy might be
based.
"A third reason" he said, "for the
failure of our system to function more
effectively IS that the income We now
produce IS so unequally distributed to
individuals that from time to time 1t
gets side tracked and never shows up
in purchases Of goods"
He cited the building industry Is
an example Of the need for a new type
Of economic organization to deal with
dihicult industrial situations. If the
leading concerns in building equip
ment could get together under their
own or Government auspices, he said,
they should be able to work out q
program Of concerted price reductions
adequate to stimulate again an ex-
pansion in house construction,
