Vocational Schools
Mrs. Mutswairo has two
goals on her return home.
She wants to urge establish
ment of vocational schools at
the high school level for
girls, 80 that those who are
not interested in mathematics
and such subjects can learn
to do something useful with
their hands, probably some
native handicraft."
That way, she said, the
girls will be able to make a
living, they will make better
mothers and they will make
better homes"
She also will urge more
adult education, in order to
bridge the gap between the
two generations" she added.
Several of the other African
teachers also stressed the
Importance of training chill
dren in their native handi-
crafts, right along with their
formal schooling, in order to
keep their cultural heritage
alive.
ANY group of people
which loses its way between
two cultures will never sur
vive," said Mrs. Lati Hyde
Forster of Sierra Leone, who
summed Up for the entire
group.
The other countries repre-
sented by the group are

Tanganyika and Zanzibar.

Americans and Africans

African woman educator
from Southern RhodeSia said
yesterday.
You think we are all still
in the jungle; we think you

toria Mutswairo, one of Is
African woman teachers
who have just concluded
three month visit TO United
States schools.
The entire delegation, the
first group of woman teach
ers to come here from
Africa, told their impressions
of this country in a panel
discussion and reception at
the headquarters of the Ma
tional Education Association.

Admire u. S. Children

Mutswairo said, admire
American children and try to
copy them" They Swagger
around the way they see film
characters do, she said.
They like to think they
dress like American children,
too. she continued, but they
have gotten a little mixed up
about this. Their idea of
dressing like an American, it
seems, makes them wear-or
hold in place to pretend they
are wear ng-the high
legged pants such as the
British teddy boys" wear.
She talked to many classes
of American school children
during her tour of this coun-
try, Mrs. MutSWairo said, and
it was apparent from the
looks on their faces that they
were getting completely diff
ferent idea of what Africans
are like. 1t was as if a mist

And here's what started The heat wav(

Last month more Americans bought Fords than in any
November in history. The blazing success of the long Ford
line was end-to-end, all across the country and up and
down it, too. M Everywhere the people hocked into
their Ford Dealers and bought smart new Falcons, and
the new Falcon Squire, the glttering swift Galaxies, the
famous Ford Station Wagons and the hot Thunderbirds.
And they poured in to see and buy UP the brand-new
Fairlanes just introduced. There are four magic
reasons-why behind The smashing success of the long
Ford line for 1862. First of all is utterly modern styling,
the fresh crisp lines that are now being so widely copied
by other car makers, the smart look that dominates the
industry. Second is absolute power in eleven kinds of
engines, giving you anything you could want in engine

options. Third is total econOmy-every Ford model is
priced directly at your pocketbook, and every Ford, large,
medium or small, gives you gasoline mileage outstanding
in its class. Fourth is the service-savingc oncept-every
Ford car is built to cut down maintenance worries and
problems, with service-saving features other cars may
have some day. Ford leadership from Falcons to
Thunderbirds is founded on trend setting innovations j.
The hot ideas come from Ford. And at the heart of Ford
success is an almost revolutionary new concept of quality
most serious and direct concern with the actual
PARTLY part quality. For the hot trends in the hot cars,
for a new experience in quality, and for the best buys on
