El Dio be Los Americas

April IA. Pan American Day, was
celebrated in all the Spanish class
es with appropriate ceremonies.
Each class presented programs in
both a festive and serious atmOs-
phere signifying a deep apprecia-
tiOn Of the 50 years Of peace among
the 81 American republics which
are members Of the Pan American
Union.
The more serious portion of
these programs consisted of talks
on the significance of this day,
conversations in Spanish using
this day and it's importance as the
topic, and discussion Of the Gus
toms, clothing, and economic stand
ing Of some of the member-coun-
tries Of this Union.
To join with the many other feg-
tive groups celebrating this anni-
yersary all over the Western
Hemisphere, the Spanish classes
presented Spanish songs rendered
by both vocal and instrumental
groups; Spanish dances with the
National dance of Mexico, the "Ja-
rabe Tapotio", featured. Several
games we're played, with the game,
"Pinata", popular fiesta game of
children ali over the Spanish
speaking world, being enjoyed in
one class.
It is hoped that these celebra-
tions have brought a little closer to
all the students who participated
a more profound appreciation of
the wonderful work that this Or
ganization of American States is
performing to help the American
republic to live together in peace
and friendship amidst a world of
war and hostility.

Flowers And Fashions

The approach of Spring is being
heralded once again as gay little
flowers poke their delicate heads
out of the ground and burst into
fragrant blossoms. Along with the
daffodils and the robins comes
something else Spring Fash
ions" What could be more pleas
ing than a balmy day in April
and new spring bonnet?
This years fashions are sky
rocketing as far as new designs
and materials are concerned. The
latest rage is a matchbox" suit
featuring a stem-slim skirt and
boxy jacket fitted at the hips rather
than the waist. Charcoal, pearl
grey and beige are the popular
colors along with the old favorites
pastel pink and navy blue. polish
ed" flannel and butcher" linen
are the suit materials this wear.
Floral prints with scoop" neck
lines and yards and yards of skirt
Over frOthy Tuffled petticoats are
the vogue in dresses. The princess
Waistiine is also making it's an
pearance this spring. Sleeveless
perma-pleated dresses with hat
wing-bOleTO shrugs are also very
popular Orion, nylOn, linen. and
Just plain cotton are the preferable
materials.
Snort, fieecy coats are the live
liest, most eye-beckoning apparel
you can wear anywhere. One has
a choice between a wing collar or
a shawl collar. There is almost no
end to the choice of materials. in
Guiding nylOn and orion.
Accessories can work magic with
Spring wardrObes. The newest
trend in shoes gives French"
heels-vely high and tiny. StraDs
are also holding their own as thew
make a net work of small designs
across the foot Kid, patent lea
ther, and suede in red, black. and
navy are among a number of best
sellers in the shoe line. Pastels-
pink, powder blue, yellow. and Law
ender are also very popular. Match
ing bags are the newest and most
sought after craze. Tiny box-like
styles in faille, patent leather. kid
and leather are the current fash
ions.
Spring wouldn't be Spring with
out new hat. A bunch of velvet
straw, and flowers that's tho
composition of a new Spring bon
net. Everyone looks at a wOman's
nat and this year here's what
theyll be seeing: the latest stvle
is jaunty little "sailor" worn
straight on the head or tilted
slightly; the ever popular "niII-
boz" is here with its dainty little
veil tied by velvet ribbons: and
the bonnet-shaped hat still re-
mains with its flowers on each
SIDE. These and many others go to
make up the realm of feathers
mowers, net, and straw known as
a hat. The most popular coIors are
Wllte' navy, and saffron beige.
Gloves of many different colors
and designs always add glamour
to your outfit. White is the most
popular, but pastels can do won
ders this Spring. Dotted Swiss
trimmed in nylOn, stuped cottons
and white nylon splashed with cot
ton moats are the seasons favo-
rites
Scarfs to match your gloves are
very stylish. A silk scarf stuck
earelessly in your pocket or caught
IN your handbag adds final touch
to your outfit.
Hoop earrings and an armful Of
bracelets are imperative along with
a huge designed safety pin to add
that last touch Of stylish gaiety.

NEW YORK R-It's a bigger
Christmas in traffic jams too. More
traffic in store aisles means more
tieups on the streets - and there
are more cars than ever this year
to get stuck at intersections.
Electronic engineers are busily
tackling the traffic officers prob
lens. First they thought up use of
radar to clock speedsters on the
open stretches Of streets and high
ways.
Next, in spots where traffic
sometimes only crawls, If that,
electronics thought up a scheme OF
using radar Y, report changes in
volume of approaching traffic and
to time the red lights accordingly.
Now the engineers are coming
up with still another idea - using
those mechanical brains to clock
and map changing traffic condi.
tons and then more or less auto.

The automatic signal division of
Eastern Industries at Norwalk,
Conn, is offering what it calls an
electro-matic master cycle and off
set selector system. This is an elec-
tronic computing gadget only 19
inches long, Z inches high and IL
inches deep.
The gadget receives a steady
stream Of traffic information, me-
chanically reported from many
intersections, which it files in its
electric brain. The company engi-
neers say the device then automat-
ically determines the most efficient
operating pattern for the traffic
signals to which it is connected.
When the volume of traffic from
the east suddenly swells, traffic
signals are turned to let it through
the intersection. AS northbound
traffic volume Duilds up, the sig
nails are changed to clear 1t and
speed it on its way. 81
