Some youngsters have even

The main problem in the

teachers and principals, however
is that there are not enough such

are even fewer, proportionate to

Some 1925 retarded children
of low mentality were in special

Some, 300 emotionally upset
children tchiefiy in Junior high

CHURCH MEMBERSHIPS SET RECORD

Church memberships in the United States have passed the 100000000 mark for the first time in his tory The National Council of Churches reported re- gently that there are now 100 162, 529 members of all faiths.
 Compared with figures of year ago. this repre- sents an increase from 97, ell.
 The tabulation contained in the Council yearbook shows that the upsurge of church memberships, which began shortly after World War H. is continuing This is proved by the fact that 609 percent of all Ameri belong churches This is the highest percentage on record
 In 1850, for example, it was ffty-seven percent and in 94O fortynne per cent and in 1900 thrty-slx per cent A hundred years ago. in an era which many people considered religious era, less than twenty per cent of all Americans belonged to a church
 This is certainly encouraging progress, and some thing which is gratifying to all Americans
 The report shows there are 58 AS 00O Protestants in the country as of 1956 33396000 Roman Catholics; $500 OO0 Jews and 900 Eastern Orthodox church members

Where Stevenson seemed to show some irritation at mech anical prompting device, Eisen- hover read from a text in front of him, frequently raising his head to look the camera in its eye.
 Where Stevenson had occasion al quips and fleeting smiles, the President did not once break out his wide grin until he had com pleted his address and brought Mrs. Eisenhower into the camera range.
 Eisenhower finished five min utes before the end of the half hour for which the Republican National Committee paid about $7s,oOo.
 Since the full 30 minutes had been contracted for, the COP paid out an estimated $13,000 for time which Eisenhowed did not use. The network filled in with a news broadcast.
 Wearing a blue shirt, dark gray suit and a blue and red tie, Eisen- hover sat in green leather chair behind a desk covered with dark red felt. He wore no makeup ex- cept for light powdering to take the shine off his forehead

Eisenhower Declares He Is Physically Fit To Carry on For Four More Years In First Nation Wide Political Talk

WASHINGTON, R- President Eisenhower told American voters Wednesday night he feels physi- cally fit to carry on for four more years what he called a wig orous quest for real peace.
 In his first nationwide radio television bid for re election, Eisenhower said he wants a mili- tarily strong and vigilant, but patient and experiencing, Am erica to lead the world to peace.
 An unsmiling Eisenhower sev- eral times took issue with his Democratic opponent, Adlai Ste venson, without mentioning his name. And he accepted at the start the health challenge the Democrats have raised because of his abdominal operation last June and his heart attack nearly year ago.
 Keying his speech to the word peace" Eisenhower said he had achieved a personal kind of peace -"granted to me by the mercy of the Almighty"-that gives him confidence he can carry on the duties of the presidency.
 Eisenhower's presentation of his case on a single network, CBS, was in contrast to Steven sons four network campaign opener from Harrisburg, Pa, last week. The COP National Com mittee chose to leave three net works open for those who might wish to watch or hear other things.

COLLEGE = Registration for fall semester at the University of Alaska Tuesday broke all records when it reached 502. Mrs. Laura E. Jones, registrar, predicted that the number will increase before registration closes October 3.
 A total of 456 persons regis tered for the first semester last year. Mrs. Jones said that she is confident total enrolment for the l956-57 academic year will reach 600 following second semester registration. Students represent most Alaskan communities and states in the Union.
 The students are returning to vastly changed campus. Mer- cury vapor lights were installed during the summer. Workmen are completing their paving of the streets and installation of sidewalks. Most of the buildings boast new coats of paint.
 Latest new building into which students moved this week is an- other 100-man dormitory. Uni versity officials are planning ahead for the enrolment which they know will continue to set new records. Present plans call for the installation before winter of foundations for a new 100- woman dormitory which will be completed by next fall.

Astronomy Notes
By OLAF HALvERSoN

The seasons of Mars are about six months long and its year is equal to 687 days.
 Mars atmosphere is very rare and thin-more so than that sur rounding the peak of Mount Ever est, the earth's highest mountain. One can easily observe permanent markings on Mars surface, since the density of its air is less than one-fourth that of the earth.
 During the severe months of winter on Mars, the white caps about the poles increase greatly, and during summer they vanish to small areas. The white caps are reservoirs of moisture for that planet.
 When the polar caps melt, they are bordered by a blue belt and this belt is visible only when the white caps disappear. These polar caps are supposed to be snow and, with the aid of the spectroscope, they are known to be snow.
