According to Mrs. Eager, every
student enrolled this year showed
marked improvement. but progress
varied in different areas of instruc-

the individual.
Sometimes we find that the stu

Eager said. IF a student has emo

Often the solution of a problem

Instructors and students come

each of the four instructors every

Truth Always

AP Newfeatures

APP Newfeatures
Summer romance abounds in in
trigue. The girl who passes the
summer without at least one fir
tation may feel she has been left
out
But end-Of-summer brings newt
able disappointments that some
girls experience as the result of
believing moonlight talk uttered
by new love. It doesn't always
last. girl may find out.
A good rule of thumb TO save
yourself heartaches is to take il
easy when the moon is bright. One
popular summer belle offers these
pointers to glamor girls:
1. Date as many boys as pos
sible. That way there will be less
danger of you falling madly in
love with one of them. (And you'll
have more fun too. One steady boy
is likely to get too dependent on
your pocketbOOk.)
2. Steer clear of boys with the
park-'n-pet routine, especially new
acquaintance. (He may prove to
be a more serious problem than
you can handle.)
8. If you have reservations about
having him meet your family or
your friends, ask yourself why.
(You'll probably find you're afraid
they will not approve of your
choice)
4. Bad reputation? If he has,
avoid entertaining that challenge
to reform him. (You probably
aren't the first one who has tried.)
Beware of that boy, too, if
He wants to see you alone but
not with group, and just treats
you as one of the girls when he
runs into you and others.
He is eager to come to your
home when your family is away
or if he mites you to his home
when his family is away.
He asks you not to mention to
another girl that he is dating you.
He uses bad language, dwells
on sex subjects, off-color stories,
reads questionable literature.
He borrows money on the first
date.
Your parents and friends dislike
him.
He doesn't seem to have real
friends.
The important thing for a girl
to keep in mind is that if she
never sees her summer romance
again, she has not been Tilted.
Men are not gated to constancy
as are women, and unless they
have been properly hooked they
won't be around for the fish fry.

Reading Study Workshop
At State University

Francis Bacon, celebrated Eng
lish philosopher and author, once
wrote, Some books are to be tast-
ed, others to be swallowed, and
some few to be chewed and digest
ed"
To improve the literary and ver-
bal digestive abilities of high
school and college students has
been the principal function of a
group of specialists in the language
arts for the past three weeks at
the University of Delaware.
For the third successive year the
Reading-Study Center of the uni
yersity's school of education has
responded to the demand Of par
ents and students for a workshop
devoted t. improving reading, lis
tening, vocabulary, spelling and
writing. In its first year the course
attracted principally Delaware res
idents, but by this summer its
value had become so widely recOg-
nized that six states were repre-
sented among the As students en-
rolled. This class could have been
far larger, but enrolment was
limited to ensure maximum teach
ing effectiveness. Students were
accepted on the basis of potential
development.
The summer course at the uni
versity is intended for high school
students who plan to attend col
lege, but each year a number of
students already enrolled in col
leges attend. These students are
not necessarily in academic diff
Guilty. in fact, nearly all are re-
ceiving satisfactory grades, but
want to improve their reading,
writing and study habits so that
the demands of college work can
be met more easily. While some of
the students eventually attend the
University of Delaware, many en-
ter other institutions.
Workshop supervisor Mrs. Eli
zabeth Eager also directs the col
lege reading program offered dur
ing the regular academic year for
University of Delaware undergrad
yates. Her summer associates are
similarly qualified through profess
sional training and experience. j..

Science Shrinks Piles

pain-without surgery.
In one hemorrhoid case after

by doctors observations.
Pain was relieved promptly.
And, while gently relieving pain,
actual reduction or retraction
(shrinking) took place.
And most amazing of all this
improvement was maintained in
cases where doctors observations
were continued over a period of
many months!
In fact, results were so thor
ough that sufferers were able to
make such astonishing statements
as "Piles have ceased to be a
