In our present educational
system, it's inevitable that we
collect a series Of documents.
Diplomas are the word from
junior high school on up. And
on the way, other documents
are collected, memberships in
various clubs and societies.
awards and the like. Most OF
us put these away in boxes and
drawers. But why not put
them to good work in a hard
to-fll wall area, such as an
entrance hall?
Note that those pictured
have one thing in common, the
narrow black frame. Other
wise they're assorted shapes
and sizes. A good arrangement
has been achieved by balanc-
ing the small with the large,
and by making sure that the
top and outside edges are even.
You can add to this arrange
ment, or start a similar one,
by featuring souvenir programs
or a special-events collection,
mementos possibly of a par
ticularly enjoyable trip.
In order to hang these in
the arrangement you want, put
together several sheets of
butcher paper, so that you
duplicate the size of the wall
space you're going to use. Put
the paper on the floor, and
move the pictures until you
achieve the desired arrange
ment. Then, in pencil. outline
each picture on the paper.
Thumbtack the paper to the
wall. and hang the pictures
in the penciled location, when
all are fastened securely to
the wall, rip the paper away.

Voice Drops Programs
Without Explanations

NEW YORK, May 27.-Nine-
teen countries were left in ig-
norance as to why Voice Of
America programs were shut of
the air in Central and South
America last week end.
Stephen Baldanza, New York
director Of the programs, drafted
farewell statement explaining
that the cut was due to the econ
omy measures. The saving would
be 1000 monthly.
But higher executives ruled
that Latin listeners would con-
slider it incredible that . the
United States would cease broad
casting for so small an amount.
The programs, therefore, were
cut off without explanation.
The Communist newspaper in
Guatemala made its own an
nouncement-that the United
States had cut off its vulgar
and offensive" programs.
