NO INJURIES IN
 HOLIDAY ACCIDENTS

Four highway traffic accidents were investigated by the Terri torial Police in this area during the holiday weekend. Although several hundred dollars damage resulted from the accidents, there were no personal injuries report ed.
 Sunday evening Kenneth Hum phrey of Mt View rolled his 1851 Plymouth sedan over on the Glenn highway at Mile 421a. The vehicle was headed west at an excessive rate of speed when the driver lost control, skidded and over turned, landing at the bot tom of an eight foot bank. There was approximately $500 damage to the vehicle.
 While the Plymouth was being removed by a wrecker, a 1851 Mercury sedan driven by Pas quale Piccardi of Anchorage struck the rear of vehicle stop ped on the highway for traffic, causing about $50 damage to his own vehicle and $100 to the other, driven by Sylvia Massey of An chorage.
 Monday a 1850 Lincoln sedan, travelling at an excessive speed and operated by Robert Rue left the road near Mile 47 on the Glenn highway causing approxi-

COUNCIL SETS NEW RATE FOR FREMEN

Members of the city council authorized an hourly pay rate for City volunteer firemen while on wet run at the regu- lar meeting held September 8. A base rate of $2.50 for
 dry run and $500 for a wet run was established some time ago. However, the question of how long a fireman should be ex- pected to work for the $500 flat rate on wet run was brought about when some volunteers worked as long as eight hours on a recent fire. Council members voted to pay an hourly rate of $500 per hour for each hour after the initial two-hour period on
The frontiersman., 1953-09-10

mately $50 damage to the we. hicle.
 An accident on the Granite Creek bridge on the same day was blamed on faulty brakes. A 1948 Plymouth sedan driven by Donald Caulkins of Palmer and a 1948 Packard driven by Wanda Stipp of Anchorage collided on the one-lane bridge when the brakes on the Caulkins car failed to operate. Damages to each vehicle amounted to approximate ly $100.

 Fire Chief Ray Lancaster re- minded council members that it will be necessary to find immedi- ate housing for the fire trucks and equipment. Cold weather will jeopardize the efficiency of our equipment, he said. We have got to get the trucks inside where

Mem bers of the fire committee report ed they have not yet received any bids on space for housing the trucks and with other council members voted to again advertise for storage space.

eve are already faced with this
problem in one or two instances.
With this in mind, the real ques-
ton is, how can Delaware efficient
" and economically construct sec
ondary school plants which provide
the necessary educational OppOr-
tunities for our children?"
A site, near Milford, was pur-
chased some time ago by the State
Board of Education, and members
of the Milford Chamber of Com
merce were told the school would
be located on the Milford site as
Milford was the center of the two
counties.
Points Out State Needs
Vocational education no longer
needs to be justified as a part of a
satisfactory public school pro-
gram he explained. A survey, made
approximately five years ago, of vO-
lcaLional education needs for Kent
and Sussex Counties indicated that
approximately 1000 white workers
were employed in occupations for
which vocational instruction should
be provided and staff members OF
the vocational division estimate
that the industrial population has
increased more than ten per cent
since that time.
Educators, it is explained, have
/ recognized that improvements car
be made in the academic portion!
of the secondary school programs
and the increasing secOndar!
school enrollments require one o
two choices: 1, The construction o
separate amademic and vOcationa
facilities and, 2, The construction
of a combined vOcatiOnal-academi
plant.
It has been pointed out in tn
state board deliberations that tn
construction of combined academic
vocational facilities is almost 5
per cent less than the cOnstructio
; of separate buildings due to tn
Joint use of the cafeteria, gymnas
ium, offices, science Laboratories

rooms, and other similar portion

recommendations on ways to I'M

The archipelago negritos are a
