!, The center Of amphibious
operations in The Atlantic
Fleet is The u. S. Naval am
phibious base, Little Creek,
Virginia, one Of the navy's
most modern installations.
The base is "home" for many
of the go ships Of the Atlantic
Amphibious Force. The small
craft, the supporting units and
training commands and the
headquarters of Vice Admiral
Lorenzo S. Sabin, Amphibious
Force Commands. 1t is the mis-
sion of the base to provide
these ships and commands
with logistical support, speci-
allied training facilities and
other help.
Covering more than 1900
acres, with approximately 2h
miles Of beach fronting on the

completed, there Is plenty of
window space and ventilation,
with all outside walls consist
ing of two-thirds windows and
one-third aluminium.
Partitions separate living
spaces into six bunk cubicles
and each man has his own full
length locker and reading
lamp and sleeps on an inner
spring mattress. Roomy lounge
spaces with TV sets and varied
recreational gear are provided
Laundry facilities include aut-
omatic washers.
Following the same design
of the barracks is the new
schools building and auditor
ium. Also utilizing much win
dow space and aluminium sid
ing, the 80 classrooms, varying
in size from 80 persons capac-
ity to 256 person capacity, are
bright and cheerful.
The ultra-modern auditorium
which seats 200 is used for lee
lures, briefings and training
films. 1t is also the nightly
movie theater for men and
their dependents. The auditor
ium is air conditioned during
the summer.
Other new buildings, fol-
lowing the same design, have
been completed for such COM
mands as naval beach group
two and the landing craft con-
troll school.
In recreation facilities, too,
the amphibious base, is today
a better place for its men to
live. Last May, A nine hole
golf course, named Eaglehaven
was opened and has since
proven one of the sportiest
courses in the area. Two bath
ing beaches, for officers, en-
listed men and their depend
ents, take advantage of the
natural assets of the area.
The hobby shop, libraries,
canteens, officers club, chief

Leading figures in Virginia
Democratic and Republican
ranks both foresee a good chance
of electing a Republican Gov
ernor next year If the State goes
for President Eisenhower again.
Representative Howard w,
Smith, the Democrat, offered
the possibility as a warning. Re-
publican State Chairman I. Lee
Potter made the forecast as an
incentive for the q. o. P. to get
out and work harder in this cleo
ton. He hinged his prediction,
also, on the reelection of at
least the two Congressman the
Republicans have in the Virginia
delegation.
The outcome Of the presiden-
tial race in Virginia on Novem-
Der 6 Is generally regarded as
doubtful. The doubtful factor
has been complicated further by
the emergence Of the States
Rights candidacy of T. Coleman

chief Of the Internal Revenue

ministration.

DR.. Luther H. Evans, director
general of the United Nations
Education, Scientific and Cul-
tural Organization, conceded to-
day that UNESCO made some
false starts" in it's early years
but maintained that it is now
operating on a sounder basis.
The former Librarian of Con-
greSs said the organization he
now directs has done a lot of
stock talking" and is sorting
out and eliminating projects of
little or no value. He said some
of the ideas which once were
advanced were not well conceived
but he added UNESCO has
shaken down from an admins
trative point Of view.
Stopping here en- route to the
ninth general conference of
UNESCO in New Delhi, India,
DR.. Evans called a press confer
ence to outline the organizations
future program.
He said there are three major
projects scheduled for discussion
at the conference November S.
One is the extension of primary
education to the children of
Latin America. The second is
scientific research on arid lands
and the third is the promotion
of mutual appreciation of Asian
and Western cultural values"
DR.. Evans said more than half
Of the children of Latin America
have no schools. He said this
vast area is now ready" for q
real long-range program de-
signed to help train teachers
and to revise curricula so the
youngsters may have better OPP
portunity for a useful educa-
ton.
He told reporters it is gener-
ally agreed by experts that too
much is being crammed into
most school curricula through
out the world and that children
need to be taught a good deal
more abount fundamentals. It
is proposed for UNESCO to
spend about 81 million on the
Latin-American project over q
period of two years.
DR.. Evans said the arid lands
project would aim at co-ordin-
ating and encouraging research
on problems like economic
publication Of sea water, the
use of solar energy, water pros
pecting and adapting animal
and plant life to desert condi-
lions. The project area extends
from Morocco and Turkey
