EXPERIMENTAL PROGRAM
To Provide Experience for Stu
dents During Summer School

dents During Summer School
An experimental program to
provide pre-collegiate experience
for Delaware high school students
will be initiated by the Univer-
sity of Delaware during the 1857
Summer School.
The new program was announc-
ed this week by the Univefsity's
summer school director, Gordon
c. Godbey, who explained that
the plan had resulted from a
$1,000 gift by a friend of the
university who hoped to reclaim
for higher education a number of
qualified students who otherwise
might not enter college with a
reasonable chance of success.
In its present form, the plan
calls for a large number of schol-
arships for worthy students which
will be awarded on the basis of
need. Students wishing to use
available funds for the regular
academic year will thus be able
to participate in the program and
benefit academically without los
ing out financially. The summer
session will include preparatory
courses in English and mathe-
matics which many entering col
lege students find troublesome.
Other students will find the read
ing-study offerings of consider
able value.
The purpose of the experiment
is to aid worthy and otherwise
qualified high school students
who may have decided at COM
paratively late stage of their high
school preparation that they de.
sire a college education. These
students may need additional
courses to prepare them for col
lege work. They may also benefit
from a reorientation toward aca
demic achievement. The curricu
lum for each student will be tail.
ored to his or her individual
needs and each student will bt
carefully advised by personne

Assembly Programs Discussed
A meeting of the officers of the
General Organization, the home
room officers, and the GO. Ad-
visers, was held recently to dis
cuss possible assembly programs
for the 1957-58 school syear. 1t
was the unanimous decision of
the group that the student body
can and does benefit from the
type of program presented by the
professional assembly groups. The
group felt that four such pro-
grams would add balance to the
presentations that would be given
by the students themselves. Pro-
grams from the Antrim Bureau
and the School Assembly Service
are under consideration.

At nightfall Saturday more
than 70 planes and a dozen
ships had made a crisscross
search of $4,000 square miles of
the squall-ridden Pacific without
a confirmed trace of the plane.
The planes last radio message,
at 81 minutes after midnight,
said it was 230 miles southeast
of Tokyo. There was no report
of trouble and the pilot said he
expected to land at Tokyo In

Possible Seaweed
Air Force officials cautioned
that the area where the objects
were reported was about 100
miles south of the planes last re-

seaweed often is mistaken for life
jackets or RATS.
But a spokesman added that
every report was being checked
thoroughly and will continue to
be thoroughly checked as long as
the search continues"
