Blair High School Correspondent

Montgomery Blair is different.
That's an impression that is con-
firmed when Blair is compared with
other high schools.
The distinction lies in the role Of
the student. At Blair. he plays an
important part in almost every
phase of school life.
Blair has the strong" type of
student government, but with it go
heavy responsibilities. This is made
possible by the philosophy of Daryl
w. Shaw. Blair'S principal. who has
fostered student direction or opera
ton of many projects which would
not be possible in q routine school
program. Most Of the work done
on campus is. taken care Of by
Council committees. the heads of
which are members Of the Congress.

tees. which range from Activity to
Welfare. Total cash handled by
these committees last year came to

UJA Asks
Tucson For
Big Loan

In the first week of June
the Community Council and
afterwards the Council Dele
gates will consider the request
of the United Jewish Appeal
that the Tucson Jewish COM
munity make a second large
loan from local banks. This
sum would be an advance to
UJA and apply on fu t u r e
moneys sent UJA.
To be requested is a sum be-
tween $65, 900 and 100000, de-
pending on the period d for
which the loan can be secured.
Two years ago the commun-
ity borrowed and a d " a n C e d
$64,0OO to UJA. The final pay
ment on the last installment
for that loan is due May 25.
Persons owing on pledges
need be impressed with the
urgency of making payment
to the limit of their ability,
say Harry Gilberg and Philip
Besserman, chairman and CO.
chairman for the Collections
Committee. Unless the final
payment is promptly made it
will adversely affect the re-
quest for the second loan to
be made shortly.

Tunisian Government h o p e d
that "T uniSia n nations

The reassurances of freedom
of emigration have not served

Mr.. Hammarskjold, placed
the responsibility for further

servers also saw significance
IN the fact that he chose a
press conference to reiterate
that he had not changed his
plans to visit Moscow. Because
of his earlier reference to the
major responsibility resting
on the Big Powers, it was felt
he might discuss Middle East
problems with the Soviet lead
ers when he visits the U.S.S.R.
Mr.. Hammarskjold's report
to the Security Council made
a number of points. Among
these were his belief that the
cease-fire agreements were
more important than similar
past agreements because they
were undertakings of the
governments, and not merely
statements by local field COM
manderS.
Many areas of disagreement
still exist, the report disclos-
ed. No solution was obtained
to the Suez and Bnot Yaacov
disputes. The Secretary-Gen-
eral felt that these are for the
