Effective Monpower Use Vital, Larson Says

The trouble with the manpowe1
situation is that people are doing
too much talking about it and
doing nothing to help.
This was the opinion last night
|of Jess Larson, who heads the new
Defense Materiel Procurement
Agency, which has centralized re-
sponsibility for procuring strate-
gic and critical materials at home
and abroad for the rearming eff
fort. He was among speakers at
a dipner meeting of the Society
for Advancement of Management,
held in Barker Hall, of the YMCA,
1876 G street NV.
In stresslng the Importance of
correct manpower utilization, Mr..
Larson said he thought the sub
ject was just as important as
critical materials. He added that
everybody is talking about better
use of manpower but too much
time is being spent on just talk
ing, instead of actually trying to
Iabate the shortage.
Mr.. Larson took the opportunity

that If each organization had a
planned program for selection and
evaluation and development, par
ticularly in training junior execu.
tives to take over broader respon-
sibility, there wouldn't be a short
age.

sion at the Conference sponsored
by the Institute of Delaware His
tory and Culture at the University
of Delaware on December 1, 1851.

Delaware. The Conference regis
tration will be held at 9:45 am,
and will allow time for a social
period before being called into ses-

Gyrfalcons are rugged birds
They have to be, for they live in
the cold, barren Arctic and north
ern Canada. Sometimes they ven-
ture southwark, but few go as far
as the northern United States.
Only once in long while is a Gyr-
falcon seen in our country.
In the bleak territory which they
inhabit, the big birds perform like
true members of the hawk and fall
con family. They are among the
fastest of all .feathered fliers, and
in their bag of aerial tricks are the
skills of soaring and diving.
With a keen eye for prey, they
arouse fear in the hearts of their
neighbors-birds, rabbits, mice,
shrews, and other small animals.
Many an unsuspecting creature has
felt the swift, sure claws of Gyr-
falcon whose appetite was unsatis-
fed.
Smyrna times., 1951-11-22

The struggle with a victim is
usually short, because the Gyrfal-
con is a large, powerful bird with
strong feet and beak. He is from
20 to 25 inches long and has a
heavy body. His wings, built for
speed, are long and slim, and his
tail is somewhat long, too.
Only experts can be sure OF
Identifying him, says the National
Wldlife Federation. This is part
ly because Gyrfalcons are so rare
ly seen,and partly because they
come in different color combina-
tions. Some are white, with brok-
en- bars of brown or black across
their backs and wings. Others are
darker, with mostly brown, gray,
or black feathers and only a bit
of white.
At one time this caused bird
authorities to list three or four
races of Gyrfalcon living in North
America. But now they feel that
there is only one, and that the
different colors may show up
among birds of the same brood.
The young make their appear
ance in a rough nest of sticks and
twigs, built in a protected corner
of a high cliff. There are three
or four of them to a family. They
are hatcher from large buff or
brownish eggs which are marked
with reddish brown.
From their lofty nome, they look
out on a cold, forbidding land,
where ice and snow never COM
pletely disappear. But they are
husky babies right from the start,
and soon they gain the thick lay
ers of feathers which will protect
them against wintry blasts.

APPOINT NEW
COMMISSION
Delaware Day, December 7th,
Most Important Date in
History of State
FIRST OBSERVED IN 1889

Observance of Delaware Day on
December 7th was assured when
Governor Elbert N. lCarvel an
nounced the appointment of a new
Commission, with DR.. Harry ".
Holloway, Dover, former State Su-
perintendent of Schools, as chair
man. Other Delaware Day Com
mission members are Prof. Paul
Dolan, political science instructor
of the University of Delaware, who
lives in Newark, and George T.
Macklin, Milford, former Supervis-
ing Principal of the Bridgeville
Schools. DR.. Holloway will work
with Kent County on the observ-
ance, while Mr.. Dolan will be in
charge of New Castle County and
Mr.. Macklin will supervise the
observance in Sussex County. In a
letter mailed to heads of all schools
in the state and to leaders of
Chambers of Commerce and Ser
, vice Clubs, DIR. Holloway pointed
out that December Z, 1887, is the
most important date in the history
Of Delaware. "Our. flag, bears this
date as reminder of that fact" /"
he said. 'The action of the thirty
deputies of the people of Delaware
State in ratifying the Constitution
of the United States made Della
ware the first state in the greatest
union, of states in the hisory of
mankind" DR.. Holloway pointed
out that Governor Richard c. Nc
Mullen approved an act authorizing
the appointment of Commission
to Commemorate Delaware Day on
May Is, 1889. Since that time, De
cember Z of each year has been
celebrated by special commemora-
tive programs by schools and other
organizations. However, it is not
listed as legal holiday in the
state. The newly appointed Com
mission chairman pointed out that
the philadelphia Sons of Delaware
had observed the day with an an
nual banquet for nearly twenty
years before the adoption of legis-
lation by the state. He said that
it was through the initiative of f..
Paul Burkholder, a Delaware rural
school supervisor at the time, that
brought about legal recognition of
December z. Burkholder was a
Pennsylvania by birth. DR.. Hol-
loway is calling on all organiza-
tions and schools to arrange q
special program in which attention
is called to some phase of Delaware
history including the significance
of this courageous and far-seeing
act OF our Delaware ancestors. i"
This year. it is hoped that special
window displays in stores; special
radio and newspaper features may
be tied in with the observance.
Since December Z has significance
to veterans organizations through
the fateful attack on Pearl Harbor
in 1o41, they, too, are invited by
Or. Holloway to join in marking
the joint observance.

 The Imps were held to three free throws that paid against the Bears four baskets and five gift shots in the third period.
 The Bears were missing their set shots and passes in the closing frame. Half way toward the close of the period, Martin of the Bears and Nielsen squared-off. Before de- finite action could be taken by either player, they were thrown from the game.
 Clicking again, the Inps threat ened again in the closing minutes but their head of steam gave out.
