Is this not good
football cath r?
The days are so sun
shiny and there is a
little tang in the air that makes
those of younger ages want to
step lively. Not belonging to
that group any more, it takes
much more to make those of
my age move quickly. Other
people must have thought it
was ideal for the game, for on
Saturday a number of groups
attended games in Newark, in
Baltimore and in Philadelphia.
AS far as I could learn, none
of them came home feeling that
there was another score added
to the right side, but all had
had fun and it was good to be
out doors, and better, to be
with friends enjoying the sport.
Saturday night Kathryn and
GTier Baynum entertained a
family group at the Dinner
Bell Inn in Rehoboth, in cele-
bration of Sara Grier Dill's
birthday. Present beside them
were Mrs. Harry Grier, Sara's
good husband, Jersey, and
George and Tiny Baynum. A
family party, all having such
a good time together. The
Baynums were so pleased to
find Mrs. Robert P. Davis,
patient in Memorial Hospital,
much better.
Ida Wells had such a de-
lightful surprise Monday eve
ming when three of her friends
gave her a stork shower. Hos
tesses were Ann Baechler,
Elaine Mulholland and Mary
Jean Warren and the affair
was given at AIMS home. 1t
was regular bridge club night
and Ida thought she was stop
ping for Ann to go to Aileen
Wilkins house for the evening,
but when she went in for Ann
there the girls were, and all
shouted surprise" The open
ing of the lovely, soft and
pretty gifts, amid "Ohs" and
"ahs" made it a happy time
for all. Bridge and canasta,
with time out for refresh
ments, followed.
Anne and Preston Dyer are
happy parents these days.
Their new son arrived on Mon
day in Beebe Hospital and he
is to be called Preston Lynch
Dyer. AS soon as Anne and the
baby leave the hospital they
will come here to occupy their
new home on Hall Place which
they have not lived in very
much up until now.

Michael Groverman and daugh-
ter, Carolyn, came for dinner
and the celebration was quietly
done but nice, too.
Next week is that, shall I
say, stupendOus style show be-
ing given at Longwood Gardens
by the State Society, Daugh-
ters of the American Revolu-
tiOn. 1t is on Wednesday and
begins at one o'clock. It is a
popular day, for several other
things are going on simultane-
ously, but this affair gives the
morning for shopping in Will
mingtOn, and for lunch, before
going out to that lovely place
for the afternoon. So much is
being crowded into the few
hours that it viii be a full pro-
gram for all. Down state chap
ters are helping with the pro-
gram Of the afternoon which
takes in old and modern dress.
an organ recital, speciality num-
bers and any card games that
one may like to carry on with
friends. Prizes, baked goodies
and candy will be there as a
part in the fun and you are
sure to meet many of your
friends in attendance. The pro-
ceeds will go toward the refur-
bishing of the Delaware Room
in Memorial Hall in Washing
ton. The public is invited.
Such a pleasant social time
took place at the New Century
Club on Monday when the
members greeted the school
faculty over a cup of tea, sand
wiches and cake. Mrs. David
Pack, Mrs. J. Alfred Pretty
man and their committee beau
tifully arranged the affair,
that was enjoyed by all. This
pleasant relationship between
the school and club has proved
helpful to both, these many
years and will be maintained.
And speaking of social
events, could any one ever
have had such a birthday par
ty as that of our President on
Tuesday? Few have ever been
accorded such mass cOngratu-
latiOns as he, when he went to
Hershey and $4,000 met him
with their best wishes. One
would have been lost in the
crowd but it was a happy occa-
sion and one that President
eisenhower must have enjoyed
by the smile that did not come
off as we watched television.
Don't you still marvel at the
magic of TV, and wish you
understood the intricacies OF
the sets?
Until next week when there
must be more news.
Always,
Virginia S. Townsend

POLICE CARS-Colonel Harry 6.
Shew, superintendent of the state
police, has been ordered by the
State Highway Department to send
out 10 unmarked police cars to pa
troll the state highways in the day
light hOurs-in search of speed
sters and reckless drivers.
This is the latest move on the
part of the state police to fight the
rising tide of highway deaths and
accidents in Delaware.
With 10 unmarked patrol cars
on the highways, the state police
will have total of 40 autos as
signed to prOwl work throughout
Delaware. There will be two un-
marked cars-operated by uni
formed men only-assigned to each
troop.
This policy, adopted on Wednes-
day by the Highway Commission,
is a direct reversal of the position
taken several years ago.
In the past no unmarked police
cars have been used by the state
police.

is made this time the air will be
filled with screams of pain and
forecasts Of disaster.
1t will take great courage and
infleXible purpose to swing the
Government around so that we
face again national solvency in
stead Of national bankruptcy. De-
spite the immensely Of the obstacles
there are several reasons for be-
lieving it will be done. One is
the dire results of failure. Another
is the firm character of the new

fourth is that the public is still

sent the unprecedentcdly grave
problems with which his successor
will he confronted.
Instead, the impression was
sought to be conveyed that our
governmental affairs here and else
where have been well managed and
conditions are such that the new
President, if he but follows the
lines Of his predecessors, ought to
be able To continue the existing
prosperity at home and eliminate
the perls that threaten us abroad.
OF course, the reverse Of this is
true, as informed men in both
parties well know. This knowledge
should be shared with the Ameri-
can people as a whole and there is
reason 10 believe that in his first
