Up in the Air

Three months ago the Air Force stated
that some flying saucer" reports were
due to sightings of United States planes
or guided missiles. They promised to re-
lease a roundup Of all reports which
they had received, "as q token of good
faith" The saucer-conscious public is
still waiting for that report to be re-
leased.
Saucer news has been scarce in the
last month. perhaps because newspaper
space has been pre-empted by campaign
news. or perhaps because saucers have
been grounded until after election day.
Since an official announcement that
saucers are and have been q United
States project could have great emo
tional and political effect; and could
swing the election to either side, de-
pending on how it is handled, it might
be appropriate to seek the presidential
candidates views on this question:
IF after you are elected, you find
that saucer sightingS are due to a secret
United States project, will you feel a
responsibility to the people to haYe this
fact made public?"

Heavy rains may carry it away. but

; Washington is q difficult section in
which to grow good grass.
Summer heat is detrimental. and the
water is not good for sprinkling. It
will be interesting to see if it is made
better or worse by the addition Of more

chlorine Is no help, either.
Crab grass, as well as other weed-like

Wilson Teachers COLLEGE

Thank you for the article regarding
Wilson Teachers College which appeared
October 8.
AS am student at Wilson, feel
very happy that some one other than
the student body cares about having
an institution of higher learning sup
ported by the public and having sufi-
cient facilities to turn out top-rate
teachers. Wilson has a very excellent
reputation around the country as a
teachers college although its facilities
in some fields do not even measure up
to most Of the high schools in the city.
We at Wilson are proud of our athletic
program because we have made it and
kept it up by ourselves with the assist
ance Of Mr.. Fox. We would like very
much for the Board of Education to
help us by giving us adequate facilities
for the college. but as is seen from past
records. it appears to be a little too
much to ask. Until the Board Of Edu-
cation can see its way clear to support
the only public college for white teachers
in the District of Columbia as far as
providing the facilities needed, we
students will have to continue on our
own without the boards help.

YuqosIov Aid

Under a new agreement reached with
Marshal Tito's government France, Britain and
the United States will extend to Yugoslavia
total of almost $100 million in economic aid
during the current fiscal year. The aid will be
aimed at alleviating the serious situation caused
by last summers drought and at promoting
industrial activity which has suffered sharp
setback because of lack of funds to replace
exhausted stocks of raw materials.
In exchange for the aid, plus an Anglo
French-American commitment to supply techni-
cal assistance to step up Yugoslav agricultural
and industrial development, the Tito government
after display Of considerable reluctance-has
accepted a number Of conditions. These include
agreements ID to consult with the Western Big
Three before contracting additional foreign
debts other than loans from the World Bank,
co to work with them in deciding on priorities
for investing in new economic projects, and 90
to seek their counsel regarding ways and means
of reducing Yugoslavia's trade deficit.
If the Tito government lives up to its part
of the bargain, there will be good reason to hope
for a substantial improvement in Yugoslavias
present economic position. Cooperation to that
end Is certainly worth while. Even though the

Often stones work their way up
through even the best lawn, leaving a
bare spot; the stone must be dug up,
and fresh grass seed put in.
This system Of seeding bare spots as
they occur is good way to keep
reasonably green lawn hereabout.
The place to spot the bare spots Is
from a second-story window.
Often the plot Of ground which
seems reasonably perfect from the door,

Autumn Is the best Of all times in
this section either to remake q lawn

Usually we have some comparatively
warm weather before Christmas, so that

germinate.

where praying mantis cases open on

think it is entirely matter for the
individual to decide. This has never been
done before and wonder why it should
be done now?
The fact that Gov. Stevenson made
his finances known doesn't put any obli-

could not understand why Mr.. Ste
venSon made his financial statement for
the past 10 years. Considering he thinks
1t is the proper procedure before taking
Office, supposed that he had revealed
his income and taxes before becoming
Governor of Illinois. Then if he did make
it known why did he go back 10 years
now? It would only have been necessary
to make known these facts for the past
three years that he has been Governor.
Considering this, the question arises
in my mind. did he or did he not re-
veal his income and tax returns prior
to becoming Governor and if he did not
why not?
One more thing, why was he 30 late
making the statement? Seems to me
the proper time to have done it was
just after the convention when he was
nominated for President.

New-StyIe Trial?
Mayme Elliott.

If Eisenhower becomes President will
he originate a new method Of trying
the corruption cases in Washington?
Since the Nixon affair. we are led to
believe he will. Any one accused of cor
ruption will be required to broadcast
his defense. There will be no witnesses,
no investigation. The radio audience
will be asked to telegraph their reaction
to the President. who will reach a ver-
dict accordingly.
We are told that Nixon's telecast and
broadcast cost the Republican Party
$4,000. Undoubtedly this kind OF trial
will be costly. but it will be short and
lot Of time will be saved.
Let US hope that in every case the
defendant will have pretty wife to sit
by him and little dog he can talk
about. Leila Henley.
