The fall Of Tavoy followed four

In addition, survivors of a sunken

not disclosed. Consequently it, too,
may have been sunk in coastal

With many details of the incidents
not yet passed by censors, there was
no accurate figure as to the total

Twenty-Five were counted lost,
however, from the 6,635-ton Allan

it's not enough for children's in

Probably the most unusual de-
Tense project in the city is under
way at Wilson Teachers College.
Student teachers are being taught
to entertain children in an air raid,
to keep them amused and occupied
at time when they might fall prey
to panic.
The idea is that a raid might
occur when numerous children are
not at home, but are in their schools
or might have to seek the safety or
some nearby building, like a church.
Children in the neighborhood are
brought in for these classes, and
the students are taught to keep boys
and girls occupied and contented.
Under the general direction Of
Miss Alberta Walker, the students
are instructed in songs, stories,
games, choric (concerted speaking
and other forms of amusement.
There's teacher for each division
Of entertainment.
40 Students Taking Course.
Naturally the younger children
are those for whom the program is
devised Should bombers attack
Washington, groups of them might
have to be taken into whatever
shelter was available, and, under
the plan being developed at Wilson
teachers or student teachers trained
in the work would be ready to go
