Junior Class Parents
Entertained Group
After The Prom

At a meeting of the Junior Glass
parents of the Milford High School,
IL was decided by a majority vote
to arrange for a two hour show at
the Milford Theatre followed by a
breakfast after the Junior-Senior
Prom These activities were plann-
ed in an effort to keep the youths
off the highway and lessen the
possibilities of accidents.
Contributions from the Junior
Class parents were not sufficient
to cover the cost of the theatre
program alone. And since the
breakfast was planned for 800,
that was no small item!
The Lions Club came to the res
cue. They forwarded a check for
$70.32 to the Finance Committee to
cover expenses of the breakfast.
This wonderful contribution plus
the splendid cooperation of others
interested in the youth of our
school district, brought about the
ultimate result-no mishaps!
Mr.. Lawrence Sharp of Silver
Hill Dairy donated the milk, con-
siderable discounts were enjoyed
from White Packing Co. and Mr..
Henry Graves of Gravel Hill Farms.
The place mats were donated by
Mr.. Walter Morris of the Boulevard
Restaurant and the Carlisle Fire
Company provided the room.
The Junior Class parents are.
most appreciative and are proud to
have an organization such as the
Lions Club in Milford,-a club
that endorses every worthwhile
program and is dedicated to pro-
viding services to our community
services for both the youths and
the aged.
The parents who worked on the
project can well be pleased that
their labor was not in vain!

PLGRIMAGEs FOR THE FUTURE


NOW H THE First Pilgrimage to the Virgin
Islands has gone into the history books, all concerned
can look towards the next one, and that should mean
one thing: a serious effort to improve on the past. That
is life itself, for nothing stands still.
II IDEA OF a pilgrimage to these Islands is a
wonderful thing, as has been said in these columns,
time and again. It serves as an excellent opportunity
tor many natives to return and see, and visit with their
people. The very spirit Of the holidays lend much to the
Pilgrimage which would otherwise be lost.
IT IS KNOWN now, for example, that a s~tricter
schedule must be planned, and planned more carefully.
A trip from. st. Croix to st. Thomas was scheduled at
the very time when one Of our most colorful and attrac-
tive parades was being conducted. The fexibiity of the.
return, to New York, allowing many to remain for
weeks and months, could create problems for the air
lines, the visitors, and the planners.
APMGRIMAGE SUCH as the one just completed
must either go all the way and provide for every facet
Of the trip, including food, lodging, entertainment, side
travel, and the like, or conine itself strictly to trans
~portation from New York and back. And in either case
all the facts, in their minutest detail should be known.
ONEGOOD THING about the trip was that many
Of the returning natives had an opportunity to spend
several hours in San Juan-where they could visit with
friends, do a little shopping and sightseeing, and even
relax between planes. That needs to be explored as a
further possibility.
PERHAPS THE WHOLE thing could start with
closest coordination between the sponsors Of the Pill
grirnage, the American Virgin Islands Civic Associa-
ton, the Tourist Board, and the Festival Committee.
The reason for the last group is that the Festival is the
central attraction around which much Of the interest
revolves, and if nothing else, all visitors should be on

THIS PILGRIMAGE has great possibilities. The
ground has been broken. People know about it, and are
no doubt looking forward to it again next year. AS it

prove q l-cent tax increase

Mr.. Eisenhower originally
recommended a lla-cent in

the Federal Government to

Rayburn Annoyed
Mr.. Rayburn obviously was
annoyed by newspaper ac-
counts that his leadership APP
parently had been repudiated
by some Democrats. Mr.. Mills
today. at the direction of the
committee, introduced a rev.
enue bill to finance the inter-
state highway program by a
l-cent gasoline tax for %
months and by transferring to
the Highway Trust Fund half
Of the excise tax on passenger
automobiles and two-thirds OF
the excise tax on parts and &C
cessories. This tax transfer
would not start until July /,

He took issue with the excise

take about $500 million from
general Treasury funds during
the year beginning July /, 1861
But he did not indicate whether
he would veto the legislation

Calls Outlook Brighter
Senator Javits said he thinks
the outlook for passage of an
effective civil rights law is
brighter than it was in 1857. He
also predicted that liberals in
both parties will set up a BIZ
partisan steering committee to
unite their strength.
Senator Javits admitted that
his mail from New York is not
all in favor of a strong civil
rights program. He said there
is a very substantial minority
viewpoint in his mail, which he
believes indicates that large
cities need to do more toward
solving their racial problems.
Asked to define the nature of
the minority mail from New
York, Senator Javits said it

lens relating to integration and
Improvement of slum condi-

Senator Jsvits made it clear /
he wants to go further on civil
rights than the Cancellation
approach by Democratic Leader
Johnson of Texas.
He said the dissenting mail |
rom New York has not swayed
him in the direction of the

found that mediation has to be
