Several From St.Croix
AT Pan Americans
Barbados Debut

Several persons from Saint
Croix were present to witness
Pan Americans entry into
Barbados for the first time on
May Is, last. They are Mr.. &
Mrs. James Crawford, Mr.. and
Mrs. Sam Pivar, Mrs. Doro-
thy Steadman, Mrs. Nesbit
Kelsey and Mrs. Owe Olsen.
Mr.. Crawford is the agent
for Pan American Always in
st. Croix. Mr.. Pivar is in
charge Of Civil Aeronautics
Activities here.
A crowd OF over one thouS-
and persons were on hand to
welcome the Clipper Goodwill
which touched down on the
runway at 1859 a. m. as the
crowd which had gathered
fully an hour before the sche-
duled time Of arrival, broke
into spontaneous applause.
A number of Pan American
officials made the trip as were
representatives of press and
radio from the mainland

sidered is: how will the voca-
tional students, who received
no vocational training during
the entire year, be classified,
in view of the fact that they
had been attending academl
classes while awaiting the
teacher that never came.
Another important matter
that was discussed, and with
some heat, was the lack of
paper for the examinations.
There is not a single sheet
available. One member sug-
gested that the ten cents the
children spend to buy ice
Icream'' could be used to pur-
chase paper. A member of
1.-THE Committee took violent
Exception to this suggestion,
pointing out that papers for
examinations must be sup
piled by the Department. That
cfttimes the ten cents used by
the children is the result of
sacrifice by their parents.
Another member observed
that st. Croix lost its cause
when some time ago the Gov
ernor made a trip to st. Croix
i'm connection with the teach
ers who had been dropped and
the shortage of textbooks. The
Chief Executive promised an
investigation, and was doubt
less sincere, but the teachers
were restored and the entire
matter was dropped. The
school year is closing and the
students are still without
Textbooks, and the situation

petty cash can be used.
The Citizens Committee on
Education had a meeting yes
terday and learned, in addi-
ton to the foregoing, that the
Christiansted High School has
been without toilet paper for
the past week. To relieve the
situation Mrs. Elena Christian,
the principal, not only sup
piled some from her own
pocket, but the tissue which
was used to wrap newly de-
livered caps and gowns, were
placed in the toilets for use of
the children. Gaviston David,
principal Of the Insular School
at Annals Hope has offered to
contribute some tissue for use
of the children until such time
as permission is granted by
the head office in st. Thomas
to purchase some. In the
meantime it might prove to
be far more costly if an assert
ment of paper are used, requir-
ing the calling of a plumber
to make repairs.
It was also brought out that
the textbooks, so badly need
ed from the beginning of the
school year, are still not avail
able as the closing time draws
near. That despite the fact
that the last vocational teach
er gave several months notice
before the end Of the last
school year, that he planned
to resign, up to the present
time there is no vocational
teacher, despite the fact that
several applications had been
received from the mainland.

ing job. It's not surprising,
then, that the credit crawl"
at the end of each program
often lists four or six names
as writer's Of 9 program. Nor
should viewers be surprised If
the general level of television
writing-I'm speaking Of weekly
half-hour shows-seldom rises
above q routine and colorless
mediocrity.
Writers find it quite q task
TO be original week after week
with the result that situations,
incidents and even jokes re-
appear with depressing fire.
quency. All Of which is by
way of preface to q decidedly
back-handed compliment for
the writer's of the new Patrice
Munsel show. The scripts of
the first few shows in the series
have shown q freshness,A in
geruity and avoidance of cliche
which are certainly to be COM
mended.
The more's the pity, then,
that we must note that the
most successful laugh-getting
remark on one recent show was
something less than original.
