Seniors Feted At
All Night Party

School days are over but one of
the most memorable events for the
seniors was "the party" in their
honor.
Following graduation exercises,
seniors scurried hither and yon,
checking in their robes and cast
ing off high heels in favor of
"flats" to go to the Senior Party"
in the school cafeteria.
AS they came down the hall to-
ward the cafeteria, music waited
through the air from the Paul and
Eddy orchestra; on down the steps
into the cafeteria they went, the
punch table laden with punch and
sandwiches, with a decor of yellow
roses and flanked with six candles
greeting their eyes. Gould this be

been removed and card tables with
white covers edged with the class
colors, centered with lighted multi
colored candles in frosted bottles,
were spaced about the dance floor.
The dance band was on raised
platform beautifully decorated in
class colors flanked with palms.
Then the fun began; gifts were
dispenced throughout the night and
progressive games were played in
a room across the hall from the
might club" with Hershey bars as
gifts. (''Who did we see in there

SHOPPING

SHIRLEY LYNN NALL

Home Economics Agent

Strawberries lend an air of
distinction to any meal. Whether
it's just a simple, down-to-earth
meal or sophisticated, glamorous
party, strawberries rise TO the oc-
casion. This versatile fruit can be
served round the clock as a
breakfast fruit, in salads, desserts,
as an appetizer, or for a between
meal treat. Enjoy them often now
while they are in season.
BUYING GUIDES: For tops in
strawberry quality and flavor, Sc
lect berries that are a uniform
bright color, clean and fresh, dry
and CLASSY, and complete with
green cap.
Solice, bright red color is pre-
ferable as it indicates ripe, fresh
ly picked berries.
Berries with white spots are
probably not ripe and will have
more tart flavor. Avoid these,
as strawberries do not ripen fur
ther after picking.
If the shiny "gloss" is gone,
the berries have been picked for
several hours. However, only To-
cally grown berries can reach
stores quickly enough to retain
this gloss.
If the caps are missing, the
berries are probably over ripe
and will have an undesirable
| flavor.
Red stains on the container in
dicate that the berries are over
ripe and/or have been crushed.
Select berries that are dry and
free of dirt and other foreign
material.
HOME CARE: Fresh berries
are highly perishable, buy only
as many as can be used in day
or two. Remove any berries that
are soft or. spoiled. Store the un-
washed berries in the refrigerator
Shallow storage trays help pre-
vent bruises.
Just before using, wash the ber'
ries gently and quickly in bow
of cold water Let the sand anC
soil sink to the bottom of the pan
Then lift the berries from the
water using your fingers as
Strainer.
Do not let strawberries stanC
in water; this will cause loss o
color and flavor. After the berrie
are clean and fully dry, remov'
the caps.
When comparing the cost o
fresh and frozen berries, the cos
per serving will be the same
when the 10-ounce package sell
at balf the price of a quart o
fresh berries.

tivities at the various installa-
lions where American personnel
are assigned to this problem.
In conclusion, 1t Is essential
that in our necessary and under
standable concern over the i'm
mediate problem Of providing for
the needs Of refugees, we not lose
sight of the historical signifi-
canoe of this mass migration of
people from an area of slavery
to an area Of freedom. The
Communist leaders thought they
were building a new order in
Hungary. Instead they erected a
monument which will stand for
ever in history as proof of the
ultimate failure Of international
communism.
Those people, both inside and
outside of Hungary, who had the
courage to expose by their ac-
tons this evil theology for what
it is, deserve all the gratitude and
support which we in the free
world are 50 willingly giving to-
day.

no change in the law is needed

under the parole provisions of

the lack of any other legislative
authority for their admittance.
c. I. strongly urge the enact
ment of the amendments to the
immigration and Nationality Act
proposed by the President to the
Eighty fourth Congress. Such
amendments would provide ade-
quate flexibility in our immigra-
ton policy to meet more fully
our world responsibilities. For
example. 1t would permit con-
sideration for certain escapes

provision should be applied In
the future should be spelled out
by the Congress.
AS the Attorney General has
stated, neither he nor any other
administrative official should
have unlimited authority to adj
NIT aliens to the United States
ON a parole basis. 1t is obvious
that such power. if arbitrarily
used, could completely circum-
vent the basic purposes and OBJ
jectives of the immigration law.
Economic Assistance
BY the United States
Our governmental aid for care
and maintenance of Hungarian
refugees has been partially di-
rected through the United Ma
lions. We should continue our
participation with the other
free nations in this United Ma
tons effort in order to secure the
most effective combination of our
resources. But it will be neces-
sary. also. to deal directly with
the Austrian government and
relief agencies on various aid
matters. particularly those in
volving expenditures affecting
the Austrian economy.
In connection with economic
assistance 10 Austria, it should
be pointed out that the cost tc
the Austrian government has
been considerable up to this
time. Austria is a relatively
small country of approximately
seven million people. 1t has q
housing shortage. It's economic
recovery, though remarkable, was
impeded by the long occupation
of the country, ended only last
year. Its budgetary capabilities
are already strained. A sub.
stantial refugee program was
present in Austria prior to thi:
new influx from Hungary, ano

The refugees arrive destitute
with no possessions but the
clothes on their backs. and they
require some additional cloth
ing and the basic amenitie;
needed for living. Although
much financial aid has come
from the charitable organiza.
tionS, particularly the Red Cross
societies. and much more will,
be given through their help. the
fact remains that the residual
financial burden falls on the

cerned continue to- explore the
use of surplus agri-
cultural commodities, both for
the food requirements Of the ref
ugees as we'll as for the genera
ton of counterpart funds which
might be used for some Of the
cash requirements for the re-
lief program.
Most of the cash contributions
from our Government have up to
now been made from the emer-
gencies fund provided in Section
40l of the Mutual Security Act.
Current estimates are that pres
emily appropriated funds will be
adequate to provide for fore
seeable costs of the Hungarian
relief program for this fiscal
year-until July /, 1857.
The United States voluntary
agencies may in this emergency
period need limited governmental
financial aid to assist them in
the resettlement program in this
country. This assistance would
not ordinarily be required, but
the sudden influx of Hungarian
refugees has in the case of GER
tain agencies placed particularly
severe demands on their finan-
cial resources which they are
unable to meet through the vol
untary contributions available to
them. To the extent that private
contributions are not available
there is no alternative but to
provide support through Govern
Iment funds.
Coordination Of the activities
of the voluntary agencies and the
Federal Government concerned
with refugee resettlement in the
United States should continue to
be the responsibility Of the Pres
lident's Committee on Hungarian
Refugee Relief. The committee
under the able direction Of Mr.
Tracy Voorhees,, has done an ad-
lmirable lob.
