Each WPA Nursery School
Gets Graded Puzzle Supply

Five sets of graded puzzles have been
made for each nursery school In the
state, according to Miss Clara K.
Dugan, state supervisor of WPA nurs-
cry schools The puzzles which are be-
ing distributed now were constructed
by the WPA toy and furniture repair
project in Great Falls.
Puzzles furnished the schools were
% five piece picture puzzle painted
on a wooden rectangle, (2) geometric
puzzle fitting into matched sections
on the board, go a geometric puzzle
fitting into round pins driven into
wooden base, "a a duck puzzle fitting
into a cutout on the board and 80
magic circles of different shaped pins
over which disks with corresponding
cutoutS are fitted
The puzzles are all constructed of
wood and are large enough so that
they can be grasped and used easily.
The primary purpose of puzzle toys
for children is to increase the length
of time children will play with one
toy, the supervisor stated.
With very young children up to q
years there is a tendency to fit from
one toy to another in play" Miss
Dugan added. And a survey made for
3-year-olds found that their average
length of concentration was only from
8 to IL minutes"

of attention, puzzles also develop the

An aroused Harvard football team,

The speedy Mazur. despite the
fact that every rival had an open

untouched. Joe Weidners attempt
ed conversion failed. Shortly after.
Chuck Spreyer started the Harvard
drive by completing the first of
many successful passes to Wing

Harvard's touchdown on one of
them.
