COMMUNITY COLLEGE PLANS DISCUSSED
 AT CHAMBER MEETING

James Hurley member of a committee named by the Palmer Board of Education to study the feasibility of a Community Col lege, or similar type of schooling, for the Palmer area, told Cham Der of Commerce members this week that survey is planned to determine the amount of interest in such program.
 In order to offer the public such a program, Hurley pointed out that many phases must first be worked out. Financing on the local level he said didn't seem to be to great a problem. He said that the committee feels that a sufficient tuition could be charg- Cd to cover out-of-pocket expen- ses. The school district may be able to squeeze out" little, he added. He pointed out that the University of Alaska will have 10 be approached to participate in the program if there is to be Community College here.
 William Zahradnicek superin- tendent of schools pointed out that attention has been given to this problem for many years. He pointed out that he would not iorsee any problem in getting qualified instructors. He added that vocational funds are avail able for agriculture and home ec courses. He said that another agriculture and another home ec instructor was being added to the high school this year and that they could be worked into such "a program.

DECISION MADE
 FOLLOWING MEETING OF CITY AND B.P.R.

Mayor Charles Wilson said this week that street paving planned by the City of Palmer and the Bureau of Public Roads, has been postpond until next spring, by mutual agreement
 He pointed out that a number of reasons entered into the de4 cision. City and B-P.R. officials met here last Thursday to discuss the paving problem, and follow ing lengthy discussions it was de cided that all preparatory work will go ahead and that contrac- tors will be invited to bid on the job this fall, with work to start as early as possible in the spring. ''This will allow the contractors time to look over the proposed work before the freeze-up and be in better position to make good bid", Mayor Wilson pointed out.
 Reasons brought out for the del lay included length of time re- Quired to advertise for bids; time allowed contractor to prepare for the work; and the lateness of the present construction season It was pointed out that many of the contractors are tied up for the balance of the season
 There still are mechanics of the contract agreement between the City and Bureau of Public Roads that must be worked out, Mayor Wilson said
 The mayor pointed out that both the City and Bureau felt there is yet time to call for bids and permit the contractor to start the road work, ''but that would mean that our streets will be torn up from now until spring, and we don't want that, he said The delay in the actual start of construction will mean far better job than if we tried to push the project through this year, Wilson said.
 Before the paving is completed the City will have to make changes in it's parking regulations and other requirements being asked by the Bureau, he added.

A Grade school child went home

because she had the "idiotic flu"

let "Cornbread Week" slip by

l made up for it by writing one
letter during Letter Writing

each of my English pupils write
a letter. They weren't too happy
about it, but it seemed valuable

accurately a good demonstration
of "don't do as l do; do as | say"
The next week, however, back
slid again. "Fire Prevention Week"
came along and l didn't do single
thing about it-unless you could
count putting off ironing as long
as possible. With that record,
