School Projects

May I, on behalf Of the Jefferson
Junior High School student body and
faculty. thank The Evening Star for
making it possible for Inspector Mans
field to appear at our school on the
closing day of school with his splendid
safety talk. His presentation was, as
usual, excellent and both the students
and teachers not only enjoyed it but
felt there was real safety contribu-
ton given to the children of this COM
munity. We are looking forward to
having him again the last day of school
in 1854.
Also, this school is indebted to your
newspaper for carrying on the salvage
drive through our parent-teacher as
sociation under the direction of How
ard Bailey. Our student council raised
approximately 5000 from the collection
and with 1t purchased supplementary
reading materials, its school letters and
awards, made contributions to the var
iouS community drives theart, cancer,
polio. Dutch Relief, National Sym
phony, use, etc., which made our
young people feel that they had part
in today's activities. ! just noted a
Star clipping that in october of 1943,
Jefferson collected over 10000 pounds
Of paper. so I guess the cooperation
Of The Star and the public schools
has been going on over decade and
has certainly made a real contribution
to the welfare Of the pupils Of this
schooi. Hugh Stewart Smith,
Principal, Jefferson Junior High
School.

Extraordinary Secrets
On Red Cruiser Doubted

LONDON, June IS (P.-Sev-
eral Allied naval officers who
have taken a shrewd look at
the Russian cruiser Sverdlov. at
tending the coronation review
of Portsmouth, expressed doubt
today that any revolutionary
secrets were built into it.
The arrival of the trim ship
at Portsmouth-the first Soviet
war craft to appear in British
waters since 1937-set tongues
wagging in that naval town. She
was called a pushbutton craft
with many mysteries hidden be-
hind her canvas screens.
But western naval afficer
said lit isn't likely that the Rus
slams would send into a foreign
port a ship full of top secret
gadgets, If they have them" He
added:
More interesting than secrets
is evidence of competent sea-
manship by the Russian crew.
There are good sailors oboard
the cruiser. This discipline and
training, plus the rugged fea-
lures of the ship, might make a
strategist move toward a con-
clusion that the Russian navy
is fitting itself to operate at
longer ranges and farther from
base than it has been hereto
fore"

Girl Admits She Lied;
Man jailed for Attack

KANSAS CITY, MO.-A young
girl, just 16 years of age, ad-
mitted this week that she lied
five years ago when she accused
5O-year-old Edward Oscar of rap
ing her. Oscar is now serving a
20-year sentence.
Il want to tell you that I did
not tell the TRUTH" the girl "con-
fessed" to Robert Deveney and
Police 1t. Charles Welch. "I
don't know why l did it. He was
not the man. When l was
little, I never had the oppor-
tunity to believe in God and
lied. I have learned to believe
in God and 1 want to tell the
truth for His sake and for the
sake of my own conscience"
The girl, who remained un-
identified, was attacked at night
near her home in 1948, when
she was II years old, At the trial,
she accused Oscar as lthe attacker.
He was found guilty by the Cir
cult Court jury and was to have
served SO years in prison. The
court reduced the term to 20
years.
At the trial Oscar denied the
accusation and stoutly affirmed
his innocence, but he was found
guilty solely on the girls testi-
mony.
This week the attack victim
said her identification Of Oscar
was made on the basis of her
brothers opinion.
"p don't know why I did IT,"
the conscience-stricken girl said
Il just said he was the man since
man was to be punished fol

him for all the suffering he was
forced to endure at the trial and

THE BOSTON MASSACRE
BY ST. CLAIR KIRTON

There were two camps: one proud and confident,
Skilled in detail, keen in its bold intent;
Across the way stout hearts with faster beat
Took up the challenge, snearing at defeat.
Tense were the moments-yes, the stakes were high
A little band had sworn to do or die,
The freedom Of their country was the stake
To be achieved cen though the earth should shake
An order, fierce charge, men quickly fell;
The sound of musketry was their death-knell;
But while upon the reddened bricks they lay
History recorded our first D-Day!
Now freedom lives-and evermore shall be
The bedrock upon which stands Liberty;
Let's keep 9blazing the torch in her hand
