Wilbur and Orville Wright
began the glider experiments
in 1900 which led to their sue
cessful first flights in a heavier

Today at Kill Devil Hills,
aviation,s first proving grounds,
the Wright Brothers National
Memorial, with its magnificent
monument, its first flight
marker. and reproductions of
the Wright Brothers workshop,
hangar, and living quarters of
1908, attract more than 300, 900
visitors each year.
But the beaches are seldom
crowded. From Southern
Shores to lower Mays Head at
Oregon Inlet are more than 20
miles of beaches. AS you drive
down the strand you never
realize that you are leaving one
postoffice community and en-
tering another. The beaches
have merged into one long
ocean resort of uncrowded
homes and shops.

REHOBOTH BEACH, DEL,
June 1.-The spotlight of &C
ltivity is focused on sports, the
iRehoboth Art League, and the
local Country Club now that
June is at hand.
Not emitting. obviously, the
Joys Of the miles of fine white
sand. the bride paths, and the
ocean, now beginning to lure
those whose idea of fun is a
good swim in water still a bit
chilly.
Those who like to watch and
to take part in speed boat races
will have their chance this
coming weekend.
Several hundred racers will
congregate Saturday and Sum-
day at Rehoboth Bay in the
Dewey Beach area for the sec
ond annual Rehoboth Bay Re-
getta sponsored by the Cham
Der Of Commerce.
The races will be under the
auspices Of the American Pow
er Boat Association, and Cap
tain John j. Marsh, the gen.
eral chairman, says that power
boat racers from the entire
Eastern Seaboard are register
ing daily.
Last year an estimated seven
thousand spectators crowded
into this resort during the two
days Of racing. In fact almost
every other car seen on the
highway into town on Satur-
day and out of town on Sum-
day evening was towing a sleek
little racing craft.
Art Exhibit
Today will find art lovers
attending the final tea in con-
nection with the Sussex County
Exhibition Of Student Arts and
Manual Skills of the Rehoboth
Art League. The exhibit is out
standing and those who have
seen it are amazed at the tall
ent shown by the school
youngsters of this area.
On June Ia, the annual Art
League Members Exhibit will
open and will continue through
July 10. The co-chairmen, Mrs.
John Townsend Tubbs, herself
a skilled water colorist, and
Mrs. Walter Piel, both of this
resort. have requested mem
bers to bring entries to the
Studio before next Saturday.
An innovation this year will
be a Silent" Auction to be
held during the entire exhibit
when visitors may deposit in
a sealed receptacle their bids
for pictures in the show. At
the close Of the exhibit. the
decision to accept bids natur-
ally rests with the artist. All
bids must be signed and the
date and hour given.

lave noted his actions since that
time. especially his orders Of the
last few weeks. Then Senator
Byrd made what could be highly
significant observation. He said.
Il hope and believe he will recon-
mend balanced budget for next
year
But the President has a dual re-
sponsibility IN this regard Not only
Is he preparing next years budget,
but also he now Is administering
the expenditures previously voted
by Congress So he Is in a position
to curtail requests for future spend
ing and 70 limit present spending
to essentials.
Senator Byrd is deeply disturbed
by what he called the recent rec
ord -breaklng deterioration in the
federal fiscal situation and by
prospects for intense pressure for
higher spending from the enlarged
group Of New Fair Dealers in the
next Congress

squarely behind nationwide grass

government spending and protect

Chicago speech, is reminiscent Of
the hair-curling warning issued
nearly. two years ago by George
Humphrey, then Secretary OF the
Treasury.
