U. S. Appraisal
Set for Hughes
Wooden Plane
BY the Associated Press

A Government appraisal
team will inspect Howard
Hughes huge wooden flying
boat January 9 in the Los
Angeles area as q step toward
a final decision on the crafts
future SO far as Uncle Sam is
concerned.
A General Services Admins
tration spokesman said today
the Government is aiming at q
definite decision by March 81
on what should be done.
He said he understood the
Federal investment now ap-
proximates SIC million and that
Mrs. Hughes has invested ad-
ditional millions. However
he said he doubted the accuracy
of one estimate that the project
has cost about $50 million.
Mr.. Hughes has agreed tc
pay any costs incurred for the
plane while the matter of dis
position is under study, the
spokesman said. It was ex-
planned that Mr.. Hughes in
vested about $750.000 in work
that was done on the plane
last year.
The Air Force commissioned
Mr.. Hughes about a dozen years
ago to build the huge plane
which has been airborne only
once. The plywood plane, which
has been dubbed the 1lyins
lumberyard. was begun in 1914;
at a time when aluminium wa,
scarce. The plane weighs
425, 900 pounds, has a wingspar
Of 800 feet, a hull 900 feet long
80 feet high and IS feet wide
Its height at the tail is 2k
stories.

later made into a booklet. Each of
us had fun making our own shell
collection of the shells we studied.
First. we painted shoe boxes to
represent the sky and water Then
we glued sand to the bottom TO
look like the beach. On this sand
we placed our shells. All of us
were very pleased with our finish
ed shell collections.
This week we have started talk
ing about fall and changes we see
around us. We have written stories
and drawn pictures about Signs of
Fall. Some of the most familiar
signs of fall are the beautiful col
ors of the leaves that are now fall
ing. Other signs we have noticed
are birds flying south, squirrels
gathering nuts, seeds being scat
tered, cooler weather, frosty morn
ings, and people raking leaves. We
are planning to study more about
seeds and learn the names of some
of our local trees and leaves.
Mrs. Achorn, our art teacher, has
worked with us and given US in
struction about how to draw
tree. She told US a very interest
ing story about the growth of a
tree. We are learning how to
properly use our art materials such
as paint, brushes, scissors, cray
ons, and paper, and what can be
done with these materials.

When school started in Septem-
ber we were anxious to tell about
some of our summer activities. We
talked about many things we en-
joyed doing this summer such as
swimming, picnicking, visiting rel
atives and friends, and going on
trips. Drawing pictures made our
stories we told more interesting.
All of us went to the beach at
some time during the vacation and
many had already started a nice
collection OF shells and other
things we find on beaches nearby.
Those of us who did not have
shells looked for them on week
ends while we were studying about
various shells and things that live
and grow in the water.
We enjoyed learning the names
of the shells and how we can use
shells. Mrs. Briggs, our librarian,
helped us find books and stories
we could use for this. Mrs. Ben
nett also taught us a song about
the seashore and finding, shells.
We wrote stories and drew pic
lures about sea life which were

Naturally, when we think of the
month of October, we can't forget
Halloween. This is an exciting oc
casion which brings to mind witch
es riding on broomsticks, black
cats, ghosts, bats, and Jack o-lan-
terms. We had fun making these
paper decorations for our room.
We also made our own Halloween
masks and talked and wrote about
Halloween safety.
To date our Stamp Day savings
have amounted to 1920. We like
to buy Savings Stamps each Thurs

In arithmetic we have been
counting and writing to 100 by Is,
SIS, and los. We are doing story
problems in adding and take away.
In Physical Education class Miss
Rissmiller has been teaching us
how to throw and catch a ball cor
rectly. We have practiced this in
games where we use a ball. We
have learned some new games this
year that we aniov playing.

Since this is the first new article
to be prepared by our class this
school year, we thought you might
like 20 know that there are thirty
members in our room, four of
which are new to our school. They
are as follows: Frances Crawford
from Texas; Rita Riggin from Lau
rel, Del; Jay Stone from Ohio;
and Norman Locates from HOus-
ton, Del.
Our class officers for the month
of October were: President, Gary
McNatt; Vice President, Sandy
Schurman; Second Vice President,
Jay Stone; Secretary, Brenda Nor
ris; and Treasurer, Bill Kirby.
Student Council representatives
of our class are Joseph Campbell
and Maxine Roberts.
At the present time we are study
ing a unit on United States Govern
ment. Some of the things We are
learning are the three branches of
government such as = The Legis-
lative branch (Congress); The SEN
ate and House of Representative
which makes the laws of our land.
The Executive Branch of our
government carries out the laws.
1t consists of the President and
his Cabinet
The Judicial branch interprets
the laws and sees that they are
carried out
: Some of the symbols of our
country that we have studied about
are: The Flag, Liberty Bell, Bald
Eagle. Statue of Liberty, and The
Great Seal of the United States.

Halloween Reminds
One OF Old Beliefs

The passing of another HallOw-
cen with its tales of ghosts and
goblins for the very young, serves
to recall that many of Delaware's
early settlers, like their kinfolk
elsewhere in the American Colon
les, believed, in varying degrees,
in witchcraft, and even practiced
strange set of customs to ward
off evil advises the Delaware State
Development Department.
AS an example of this, the state
information agency notes that it
was once the custom in this area
to place psalm book beneath the
head of a newly born child to sup
posedly prevent it's being ex-
changed for an elf child by
witches.
Another early Delaware custor/
was to cut crosses into broom
handles so that witches could not
ride on them. A still stranger GUS
tom was to feed cattle with
crumbs from each course of a
meal at Christmas Day to pre-
serve them against witchcraft.
According to some sources, wit
ches even gave Johan Printz. the
third Swedish governor of Della
ware, the goose pimples. He was
a hard-bitten warrior, proud of
his scars, yet his blood ran cold
when he accused Karin, a Fin
nish woman, and Lasse, her hus-
band, also Finn, of ''witchery." ;"
These poor people who had come
to Delaware with the Swedes were
banished from the main settle
ments of New Sweden, and their
farm on the Delaware in Chester
County, Pennsylvania, was seized
by the governor for himself.

At the beginning of school we
started an aquarium in our room.
We have pair. of fish. Several
weeks ago one had fifteen baby
guppies. We were very excited
about this, however, our excite
ment didn't last very long-they all
died within week.
We also set up three terrariums.
