Saturday and Sunday, April and

Is done to provide . maximum
number of tourists with the op-
portunity to witness the ceremony.
On Saturday night, April the
annual Cherry Blossom Festival
illuminated parade with its brilli-
ant bands from all over the coun-
try will stage their annual spec-
tacle. This is always one OF the
highlights according to officials
and draws the biggest throng.
OF course, Miss McCloskey will
be a part of all this-and with q
little bit Of that Irish luck, she
just might preside over the entire
affair as Queen.
After all. it's about time that a
young lady from the First State

a matter of chance and Miss Nc

On Tuesday night at p. m. the

On Wednesday the Cherry Bios

the State Societies will take their
charges in hand. It is understood
that Delaware's Congressional con-
gregation has special plans for
Miss McCloskey on April Z, which
will probably be in the form of
luncheon at the Capitol.
The big thrill comes on Friday
evening at the Sheraton Park Ho-

huge wheel bearing their names
spin round and round-and as they
watch as the wheel stops. one of
the beauties will have become
queen of the festival.

DR.. Simpson said he did not in
terpret the outcome as meaning
district voters were opposed to
teachers getting raises. 1t is the
method of getting the money for
the raises which has been dis
approved, he said He plans to push
for enactment of a school tax
equalization bill which the Caesar
Rodney board of education recent
ly proposed to the State Board of
Education.
This bill provides that the state
pay equalization funds to each dis
trict which has, or approves by
referendum, a real estate tax rate
for expenses of Is cents per $1O0
valuation if this tax does not pro-
duce $500 or more in taxes per tea
cher unit. Equivalent capitation
taxes could take the place of the
Is cent rate.
Along with this arrangement,
said DIR. Simpson, there should be
a limit put on supplements up
state districts can add to the basic
teachers salaries paid by the state.
Dover District had never before
rejected a school referendum, said
Mr.. Green. A proposal four years
ago for supplemental raises to tea
chers' salaries passed handily
School building projects have
similarly won heavy approval, he
said.
Dover residents voted at four
locations. The tallies in these
