Missile production is complicated business.
It takes teamwork by the nations skilled
scientists, engineers and production workers.
We are proud that Reynolds Metals
Company has key assignment in this vital
job. For five years our plant near Sheffield,
Alabama 10 miles from the Army Ballistic
Missile Agency at Redstone Arsenal-has
pioneered missile construction. Here we
are accommodating reservoir of know how"

AS co-producers of the Redstone, we have
watched with pride its test performances
which have established it as the largest and
most powerful ballistic missile in industrial

The American people may well find gratif-

plishment for our national defense, but
also in the future potential of missile skills
acquired in building the Redstone.
A big job still must be done. Our greatest
challenge faces us. Yet the fact is that much
has been accomplished. And now every CON-

be utilized to the fullest. We at Reynolds
pledge our best effort. We have faith and

School News

The 1956-1957 school year at
Banneker is rapidly drawing to a
close. Closing days of school at
Banneker are highlighted with
activities worthy of mention.
Friday, May 81, 1857 was our
annual Play Day activities. The
activities of this day were under
the Craftsmanship of Mr.. Newton
Miller. The activities of the day
were of a cultural and physical
nature. The morning activities fea-
tured stunts and dances by the
grades as entertainment for the
selected on the basis of being the
most popular. Her popularity was
determined by the proceeds result
ing from the sale of votes. Sandra
Henry of grade three was crowned
queen for the day. Runner-ups for
this affair were Carolyn Green Sec
ond, Brenda Gorden third and
Carol Griffith fourth place. Orchids
to all contestants for a fine con-
tribution to a worthy cause. The
afternoon activities consisted of
races and a ball game. The Ban
neker boys played host to the boys
from Seaford. Except for few
needless errors resulting from
over excitement, the game was well
played. The boys from Banneker
lost in score but both teams were
winners in sportsmanship and per-
fOrmance.
Final Examinations will be CIV
en- Thursday and Friday of this
week, June 9Th and 7th. This is
the last chance for pupils to prove
that they have mastered the sub
ject matter prerequisite for pro-
motion to the next grade.
Sunday, June 9Th, at $3.50 p. M,
the Rev. Freddie Spruill of Phila-
de1phia will deliver the Baccalau-
reate sermon to the graduates. The
public is cordially invited and
earnestly requested to attend the
services. This occasion affords a
splendid opportunity for teachers,
parents and children to assemble
together for a rich spiritual bless
ing
Graduation Exercises for the
ninth grade of this school will be
held Tuesday evening, June 18th,
in the Banneker Auditorium. The
program will begin promptly at
$3.50 p. M, DIST. The principal
address to the graduates will be
given by DR.. Jerome H. holland,
President of Delaware State Col
lege. DIR. Holland has made history
in Delaware as an administrator
and as an educator. Your evening
will be we'll spent if you are num-

denoting promotion from the ninth
grade. These are your children,
relatives or friends.

This program grew out of
European tour of the Grassmyers
several years ago. They have given
the same program in various places
for various benefits. 1t is highly
instructive as we'll as entertaining.
The elementary pupils also were
permitted to enjoy the program.
School Visitors
Last week, Mr.. Lyle Mowlds,
State Supervisor of Agriculture
and Mr. Paul Hodgson, State Su-
pervisor of Agriculture in charge
of Teacher Training at the Uni
versity of Delaware, visited our
school. They were making sur
vey as to the possibility of i'm
proving our Agricultural facilities.
The school was also visited by
three heating and electrical en-
gineers, sent down by the architect,
to ascertain what changes and
additions in heating and electrical
equipment will be needed for the
new building.

Public Invited To
Red Men Raising

A public Raising Ceremony of
the Chiefs of Sakimas Tribe No 10,
the Improved Order of Red Men,
will be held in Milford on the
ground adjoining the American
Legion Home. The ceremony
which embraces the installation
of the officers of the Milford tribe,
begins at 800 p. m. ON Saturday,
June Is, and includes guest speak
ers from Pennsylvania, New Jer-
sey, and Delaware.
The public is cordially invited
to attend this exciting program,
which will not only interest the
adults, but will delight the young
er set. There will be not only wig
vans and Indians in costume, but
many evidences of the original
American. You will see the chiefs
installed to their offices in the
same manner as the American In
dian 300 years ago.
Both the Red Men and the Po-
cahontas emulate as closely as pos
sible the American Indian in his
concept of Freedom and Friend
ship. The result is an All Ameri-
can Order which readily battles
Communism and any other faction
attempting to destroy our way OF
life.
The Order furthers the emula-
tion of the Indian by assuming his
regalia and many of his customs
and ceremonies. Part of this, the
public can witness. There will be
cold drinks and ice cream avail
able, plenty of free parking space
and plenty of action.

sure over passage of the Civil
Rights bill and the law which, it is
hoped. will undo some of the dam
age wrought by the Supreme Court
in deciding that Federal defendants
should have access to FBI files.
But Mr.. Eisenhower said he had
"a little list of things that did not
please him, of which the most i'm
portant was the cutting of his
Mutual Security program (better

budget cuts, reported at from four

Eisenhower put the figure at from
5000 million to 81 billion. His in
volved reply to the question seem
ed to imply that the larger cuts
claimed by the economizers wOu5 j
be swallowed up by deficiency ap-
propriations later on.
But we think the President should
still be tremendously disappointed
if he really wanted the things he
asked Congress for. Foreign aid
did take a beating. The School Aid
effort was decisively defeated. The
Civil Rights bill finally passed bore
little or no resemblance to the
original wnell call-Out-the-
troops measure. White House eff

Walter immigration Act failed
Even the Atoms-for-Peace plan
which the President gave special
commendation, did not come out
quite as ordered. It should be noted
that Congress kept the reins in its
hands instead of giving the Presi-
dent control of fashionable ma
terials sent abroad. And any way
you slice it, the record-breaking
White House budget was cut-best
estimate about five billions.
All in all, the recently departed
Congress-which has been remark
ably bipartisan on major issues
has pretty well let the wind out OF
modern Republicanism".

FOLLOWING THE CROWD

Too many of us, and the writer is no ex-
ception, tend to follow the crowd and "con-
FORM" However, much of the worlds prog
ress has been made by men and women who
refused to conform when they thought the
crowd, or the majority, was wrong.
1t is very easy in life to accept gossip
about those one has an inclination to be
jealous of. 1t is a common fault for us to
try to pull others down to our own level
if they have out-performed us in life in
some way.
Moreover, the tendency of too many of
us is to belittle things we do not understand,
dislike those with whom we disagree and to
close our minds to learning after we have
reached a certain age in life.
There is usually high price to pay when
one bucks the majority, or when one re-
fuses to follow the crowd If everyone around
us idies away their afternoons, that is no
reason why we should idle away ours.
If a certain type of work is frowned upon
by the So-called social set, that is no reason
why some good, honest sweat should not be
expended by any man or woman who puts
common sense ahead of false pride.
1t is good for all of us to evaluate our
lives and our PHILOSOPHERS and give some
thought to standing on our own two feet. 1t
is easy to follow the crowd: But remember
the crowd is often wrong.

age of technical people and that
our children are merely being
black. lacked into scientific careers,
the Manufacturing Chemists Asso-
citation has reviewed material pub
Iished on the subject during the
past year and interviewed appro-
pirate authorities in education,
business and government.
In the current issue of it's Off
cial publication Chemical News, the
Association reports on its findings
and estimates a shortage of 5000
engineers a year for the next ten
years-in spite of an annual in
crease in engineering graduates.
Three reasons are cited for the
ever increasing need First, the
swift expansion of both technology
and industry over the past SO years
has Outstripped our development
of human resources. Second, in
creasing population combined with
rising living standards have strain
ed the capability of industry to
meet demand. Third, eve must plan
for the day when we will have to
do more with less (having depleted
our natural resOurces) )-or find sub
stitutes. This whole effort is a
scientific one For this we need
slide-rules, not shOvels''.
In summary, Chemical News as
sures us that: more technology
means more technologists." And, by
way of stirring youthful excitnent
in technology, the Association last
year launched a million dollar aid
to-education program at the junior
high school level. This year the
program is being expanded to cover
high school chemistry. The pro-
gram revolves around a series of
80 "open-end' chemistry expert
ments (as opposed to the oldstyle
high school "cook book" experiment
tation) and includes the necessary
texts ar d teacher-aids. Printed ma
terials are made availble without
charge to public, private and parO-
chial schools and have thusfar been
requested by some $500 junior high
schools.
In stirring the imagination of our
up-and-con1ing youth to a reali-
zation that life itself is an open
end experiment. each to con-
duct as best he can-the Associ-
alton is working constructively to
provide for the scientific maDpOwer
we shall need in the years ahead.
But more than that, it is encour-
aging youth toward fulfillment of
its capabilities. And this, in turn, is
Americas only assurance of secur-
ity-of peace and prosperity-in
the days to come.
