At the end Of the school year
this summer, 250.0o0 young spe-

needed to tackle the problem of
developing a rich country. But
they are not the servile robots
pictured In the Stalinist descrip-
'tion of "the new Soviet man" !"
|Petulantly, Pravda recently had
this to say about them:
"The Soviet motherland, like
Ia real mother. having trained
and educated new cadres Of spe-
Icialists, has the right to expect
they will honestly and conscien.
Itiously fulfill their duty to the
people, give all their strength

Any belle of the junior high
crowd will love a date-time beret,
which keeps a reminder of the hour
of her date right on top of her
head.
It's simple to make at home, if
you follow these suggestions from
local sewing center experts.
You can start with a ready-made
beret or make your own from white
felt. To make the beret, cut two
circles of white felt of the size
you prefer for your beret. In one
circle cut a round hole in the
middle slightly smaller than your
headsize, so it will fit after hem
ming. You now have one dough-
nut-shaped piece of felt and one
solid circle.
Mark off a clock face, with Ro-
man numerals, on the solid circle
of felt, tracing lightly with pencil.
Then you can embrOider them by
machine, using either an auto
matte swing-needle machine or the
automatic zigzagger attachment. In

50 miles. Primary highways. 4OS
miles. Secondary highways, 1,265
miles and tertiary or dirt roads, l.
529 miles.
The plan for financing these high
way improvements, offered by the
Highway Department, provides for
the aTterial highway Improvements
to be financed from revenues re-
ceiVed from the Delaware Memo
rial Bridge, tOtaling about $780,
100000 over the entire period.
For the remaining cost of the
15-year program, amounting to
about $19S,000,0O0 the Department
recommends that all fees from the
Motor Vehicle Division, Motor
Fuel Tax and other department re-
ceipts be used together with Fed
eral Aid and a bond issue for each
years requirements plus a one
cent increase in the motor fuel tax.
Under this plan the bonded in
debtedness at the end of the 10
year period would be less than
$10,000,000 more than it was at
the end of the last fiscal year. This
is made possible through the con-
structiOn work each year being f.
nanced through current receipts,
Federal Aid and small bond issues
but with some of the bonds being
paid off each year.
The plan as presented has been
characterized as the foremost high
way improvement plan ever pre-
pared in this state and consists of
a lOng-range plan that will result
in badly needed improvements to
many parts of the highway system.
Included in the recommended
tions Of the Department in connec-
tion with the program is sugges-
tiOns for authority to develop the
arterial highway plan and legisla-
tiOn permitting the construction of
limited access highway facilities
