The Chief of Naval Opera

Burke are looking forward to
the arrival of the Chief of
the German Navy, Vice Ad-
miral Frierich Ruge, on

of Admiral Burke. They will
land in New York on Sunday,
April 3, and come to Wash

evening Admiral and Mrs.
Burke will entertain at din
ner in honor Of the distin-
guished visitor.
Admiral Ruge was invited
especially for the first weeks
in April when the last of six
United States destroyers
loaned to the German Navy
will be commissioned. This
particular vessel has a spe-
cial niche in Admiral Burke's
regard, it being one of the
destroyerS used as his flag
ship during the Pacific War.
The commissioning is to
take place at the Charleston
Navy Yard, Charleston, S. c.,
on Tuesday. April IL, and
the vessel will then receive
its German designation of

through the new paint and

SIX SKIES
Our Cute Little Kittens
Will Be Losing Mittens
SIX SKIES

As inclement weather ap-
proaches, the Lost and Found
tables put in their appearance
at our city's e e m n a y
schools. This happens every
fall. Children come to school
wearing wraps, you see, and
many of them leave in the
afternoon minus a mitten, a
boot, a cap, or some other such
item of apparel. And all such
lost articles turn up eventually
on the Lost and Found table.
More left-handed gloves and
mittens are lost than right
ones, for some reason; perhaps
it is because they are the ones
that are LEFT Editors Note:
Oh, Brother!).
1t is harder to account for
spectacles being misplaced and
not claimed by their owners,
but there are always some Of
them left around, too.
And just how and why a
pair of trousers should turn up,
as one did recently in one
school, is somewhat Of a
mystery.
At any rate, now is a good
time of the year for parents
to remind their children to
come back from school with as
much wearing apparel as they
started out with. The very
little tots still have their nit
tens tied together with a
long string threaded through
their sleeves, as we all did;
but older children are expected
to rely considerably more on
themselves.
We should also see to it, of
course, that they don't return
from school wearing more than
they departed with in the morn
ing.
CALEDONIA HAS
TASTING PARTY
Just before Thanksgiving,
Mrs. Ruth Welter's third grad
ers at Caledonia School had a
Tasting Party. This sounds
to us as if it would be more
fun than anything.
The idea was strictly educa-
tional: to be able to identify
the tastes and flavors of a
large number Of foods, which
the class had been studying
under the heading of the Basic
S seven Foods of we'll
diet. But in order to
taste something, naturally, one
East Cleveland leader. [volume] (East Cleveland, Ohio) 1942-1970, 1960-12-08

has to do little swallowing,
too. Hence the fun in education.
Many of the foods were
vegetables and fruits, pre-
pared by some of the mothers
of the children in the room.
Some of these foods were
quite strange to many of the
boys and girls.
How many Of us know, for
instance, what pomegranates
taste like? Or whether cauli-
flower buds are the same as
cauliflower?
Then, too, there was great
educational value in finding
out what part of the plant it
is that is eaten in each case,
and how the plants grow and
get their color, and which ones
supply us with different vita
Minis.
In short, it was quite a
scientific party, and we pre-
sumo a very enjoyable one.
Because of the education, of
course.

MAYFAIR PUPILS
EXCHANGE TAPES
Magnetic tape letters, con-
sisting of spoken messages on
recorder spools, have been ex-
changed recently between Mrs.
Dorothy McCabe's second grade
class at Mayfair School and a
classroom of the same age in
an e m tary school at
Kent, O..
Each child in each of the
rooms spoke a message to the
other class into the micro
phone, and the resulting tapes
were then exchanged between
the cities. The children told
their counterparts in the other
town their names, what kind
of house they lived in, what
some Of the stories were they
that had been reading in school
(some of these were the same)
and similar information. The
Mayfair pupils learned that
more of them lived in double
houses than the Kent young
sters did, but otherwise their
stories were much the same.
1t is quite an experience, we
are told, to hear your own
voice played back on tape. The
first reaction is likely to be,
''Is that MY voice." But
teachers and principals assure
US that they can always tell
what child is talking, without
any other means Of identifica-
tion; if the mechanical equip
ment distorts somewhat, it
distorts all voices alike.
Besides, it is sort Of fun to
try to imagine what a child
looks like by listening to his or
ner voice, even if you never
see them. And the Mayfair
children were impressed to find
out how much like themselves
he Kent youngsters were -
another step in the continuing
effort our schools are making
% show what a small world we
i've in, after all.

The first basketball team
that gets a hot streak going
can win the title in the West
Division of the Interhigh
League.
1t is apparent there is no
solid team after two unbeaten
schools, Dunbar and Roosevelt,
clashed yesterday at Mckinley
Tech High School, with Dunbar
outlasting the Riders, $3.50.
The victory puts Dunbar atop
the division with a 80 record.
Roosevelt fell to second at 81.
Wilson is third with a 81
mark and the remainder

and Bell, are scrambling at
this point.
Albert Wheeler, John Green
and Clarence Holloway, hold
overs from last year, give Dun
bar the nucleus for a fair team,
but Coach Louis Williams says
he is forced to use several in
experienced players in order
to get height. This proves
damaging at times.
