Die is Cast
For Closing

The all-Negro Lincoln Jun

will be closed by the School
Board regardless of action by
the County Council on a re-
quest for $50, $50 to convert
the school into a warehouse
with Office space.

Lathrop Smith, School Board
member stated fatty Tuesday.
The School Boards decision to
close the school, with or without
appropriations by the Council
came as surprise to Council
members who toured the building
with the school Board.
The Council cut $55, $50 from
its 1889 budget that was to
have been used to convert the
school.
The reason for Lincoln being
closed is not its physical condi-

Parts Dealer Builds

He built it himself from about

ing a three year, international
scavenger hunt
The plane looks so authentic,
government inspectors accused
him of swiping it when they saw
it, he said. Kamensky, a used
plane parts broker, said he picked
up parts in junk heaps from AL
aska to the Sahara Desert.
He got interested in the prof.
ect when a Chicago banker told
him he wanted a jet for his own
use. Kamensky knew where he
could find fuselage and a wing
in Nevada. The rest he figured
would be easy.
But the task, including frus-
trating chases on false leads and
long struggles against govern
ment red tape, took him three
years and thousands of miles. In
Alaska junk heaps, he picked up
a landing gear, other vital parts
and a case of frosbite.
In Texas, he found a nose for
the plane. A glittering object on
an Arizona desert turned out to
be a T33 canopy. Other parts
turned up in Africa, France and
Oklahoma. He bought five used
engines to provide two good ones.
The banker sold. out after put
ting $4,000 into the venture
But Kamensky says his craft, de-
spite its fuel consumption Of 24O
gallons an hour, offers advan-
tages-for instance = speed of
$50 miles an hour.

Astronomy Notes
By OLAF HALVERSON

A distinguished German as
trononer made a catalog and
chart of all the stars in the north
ern hemisphere. His limit was the
913 magnitude and he recorded
more than 324,0O0 stars. These
stars gave a total light equivalent
to 1900 sixth magnitude stars.
Calculations prove that tele-
scopic stars of this extensive cat
alog yield more than three times
the light than from visible stars.
The stars, then, which we cannot
see with the naked eye, give
more light than those we can see,
because of their vastly greater
numbers.
If, now, we can assume that
the southern heavens have an
equal number of stars, there
would be in the entire sidereal
heavens, about 100000 stars to
the 911 magnitude. Their total
light has been calculated to be
equal to one-eightyieth that of
the average full moon.
There are ten stars of the first
magnitude in the northern hemi-
sphere.

CDR. Freeman Weiss. noted

cial projects dealing with

that the camellia display this
year is the best yet, due in part
to winter lettering the bloom

passing Of the cold there. all
the varieties are coming into
flower at the same time. He es-
Inmates they will hold this peak
condition for another week.
Floral displays in the Whining
ton region to the north are still
being held back as a result of
cold.
DR.. Weiss predicts that the
azelea display in Charleston,
also set back by the harsh win
ter, will be at peak form in
about three weeks.

infected, as though they had
been steamed. They do not
fall from the bushes but re-
main until dry and lifeless.
Thus this disease which COM
|pletely ruins the floral effects
should be vigorously fought.
Removing the mulch is the
simple and effective way to do
the job.
Tuck in Those Bulbs
Bulbs that were not planted
last fall should be tucked into
the ground Immediately If they
are to be saved. Otherwise,
they might just as well be put
into the garbage can. This late
planting will not produce flow
ers that are especially attrac-
tive but 1t is the only way to
save daffodil bulbs. The tulips
will bloom but should be dis
carded after Towering.
The mulch on bulb and
perennial borders should be
thinned so that the new growth
which has already started un-
derneath will have a chance to
reach sunlight. Do not discard
the mulch but have it ready to
spread over the bulb and peren-
NAL beds should severe freezing
be forecast. The average date
of the last killing frost for
Washington is April 10. At this
date care should be used in
removing a mulch to avoid in
jury to the tender new growth.
BrOadleaved Evergreens
The winter was unusually
hard on the broadleaved ever
greens, such as the hollies, the
magnolias and the liguStrum
lucidum. While it has Drowned
the foliage it is not serious.
The damaged leaves will soon
fall and be replaced by new
leaves. The cause, of course, is
the unusual number of days
Of high winds from the west
and the north.
Remove Dead Tips
Where the tips of branches
were winter-killed they should
be removed now so that the
new growth will soon hide the
pruning cuts.
Don't Burn Foliage
While it is never too late to
spread fertilizer on the lawn
and bulb beds, it is desirable
to wash the fertilizer of of the
growing foliage to avoid fer
tilizer burn. The new non-burn-
ing fertilizers do not require
this removal since they do not
burn like the old standard types
do.
Curb Wild Onions

wild-onion wild garlic with

fuel oil and 2. AID is a more

Pruning should be done every
spring on the arborvitaes, juni-
pers, and the False cypress If
we are to keep them compact,
to avoid heavy shedding of
needles during the summer, and
to prolong their useful life in
the foundation planting Cut
them back with pruning shears
rather than hedge shears. In
this way it is possible to retain
their natural appearance. OF
course, if used as a hedge, then
the pruning shears should be
used to obtain the straight lines
desired.
Some Planting Looms
Veg etable growers should
plan to sow their peas next
week. as well as plant potatoes,
set out handy cabbage and broc-
coli plants. These crops need
to make their maximum
growth during the cool, moist
weather Of April If they are to
produce worthwhile crops this
spring.
Value Of Dormant Spray
Don't overlook the value of a
dormant spray for fruit trees,
roses and the deciduous shrubs.
It helps to destroy the scale in
sectS as well as many of the
disease spores that winter over
on the woody stems and
branches. If the ground be-
meath the plants receives some
of the spray it may get many
of the fallen spores. The lime
sulphur is one of the easier
spray materials to use for this
purpose. The miscible oil
sprays are good but are best
used in a power Sprayer with
an agitator.
Black Spot ON Roses
An article was noted recently
in which the writer claimed
considerable success in elimi-
mating the black-spot disease
of the rose by removing the old
mulch and replacing it with a
new one. This worked in the
writer's opinion because the
disease spores fall to the ground
from the old foliage. The omis-
sion. however, of the impor-
lance of a dormant spray which
took care of the spores on the
wood, left much to round out
the story. 1t takes both steps
to do the Job.
Replace Azalea Mulch
1t will soon be time to remove
the mulch around the azaleas
and to replace it with a new one
II petal blight is present. This
disease winters over in the
mulch. It is much simpler to
remove the mulch and to re-
place with q new one than it
is to spray to control this dis
ease which affects, the flower
