20 accommodate additional staff
parking.
The addition will be located
on the Taylor I'd. side of the
existing building and will be of
similar design and materials.
1t is estimated that the new
construction. excluding rehab-
ilitation work, will cost approx
imately 1885, 900 and that work
will begin early in 1862.
East Cleveland City COM
missioners are expected to re-
zone the site Tuesday night to
permit the addition.
The building houses the De
partment of Astronomy under
the direction of DR.. Sidney W.
McCuskey, who succeeded Dr..
Jason J. Nassau as department
head in 1853.
DR.. Nassau continues to
serve as the senior faculty
member of the department.
The original building on the
Taylor I'd. site was constructed
in 1921 and added to in 1910.
In 1860 the departments ac-
tivities were consolidated so as
to serve Western Reserve Uni
versity and the Museum of
Natural History and thus to
maximize the effectiveness Of
the facilities and staffs Of the
three individual institutions.
The new addition is needed
to house the expanding research
activities of the department
which have assumed new pro-
portions in recent years.
In commenting on this eX-
pansion, DR.. GIennan said, The
rapidly developing needs for
highly-trained people in the
fields of astronomy and celes-
tial mechanics have placed new
responsibilities on institutions
such as Case where long ira
dition Of high-quality work in
these fields has existed. Our
answer has been to move as
rapidly as possible to meet
these needs at both the under
graduate and graduate levels
The engineers and architect
for the project are McGeorge
Hargett and Hoag. Funds for
the program are being made
available through grants from
he Cleveland Development
Foundation, the National Sci
ence Foundation, and private
sources.

Short Lunch
To Lengthen
School Day

The East Cleveland Board
of Education has considered
lengthening the elementary
school day by fifteen minutes.
At present, elementary school
children attend school from
ga. m. until II noon and from
1:30 p. m. until $3.50 p. m.
The State Department of
Education minimum require
ment for the school day is
five hours, which is presently
met in East Cleveland. Many
school districts exceed the
minimum requirements.
The inclusion Of foreign
language into the elementary
school program and the de-
mands of quality education
for all children indicate that
the schools attempt to deter
mine the feasibility of length
ening the school day by
shortening the lunch hour
from one hour and 80 min
utes to one hour and Is min
utes.
1t is possible that children
living the farthest distance
from each of the elementary
schools will not have suffi-
cient time to go home for
lunch and return in the time
being considered.
In the interest Of fairness
to all residents of the East
Cleveland school district, the
week of January Sth to 18th
will be utilized to determine
the feasibility of gaining Is
minutes during the school
day.
School will be dismissed
at IL noon and will resume
at lis p. m. If it is found
that all children do have
ample time for the lunch
hour, a later date will be
determined to start the pro-
gram permanently.
The adding of Is minutes
daily is the equivalent of nine
days of school per year. or
81 days over the six years of
elementary school.

Fire Chief Fred W. Lange
today asked that care be taken
in erecting and decorating
Christmas trees.
A tree contains natural resins
which ignite easily and burn
readily, the Chief reminded.
If proper precautions are
taken, however, fire may be
avoided. Particular attention
should be given to trees in
churches and schools.
In the three days beginning
at s p. m. on Christmas Eve
there were II fire deaths in the
United States in 1860 compared
with 43 deaths the preceding
Christmas.
Don't Block Exits Trees,
in addition, should not be set
up close to stairways because
in case of fire the stairway as
an exit from upper floors would
be blocked.
Offers Suggestions
With regard to the care Of
Christmas trees in the home,
Chief Lange has these follow
ing suggestions:
|. When you choose your
Christmas tree this year, select
one which appears to be fresh
ly cut. Feel the needles to make
sure they are firmly attached.
2. Keep the tree out of doors
until just before Christmas.
And keep it standing in a pail
of water so that it will remain
fresh.
3. When you put the tree up,
place it in the coolest part of
the room. 1t should be as far as
possible from radiators, heaters
and as far away as POSSIBLE
from the fireplace. This will re-
duce the chances of fire, and
keep the tree from drying.
Trees Fast Drinkers
4. Use a tree stand which has
a water container in which the
trunk can rest. Most trees
drink" water fairly fast, so
fill the water container daily.
5. Christmas tree decorations
should be flameproof. Use only
decorations made of glass,
metal or fire-resistant material.
8. Eleytric trains should be
set up away from the tree. A
spark from the train could ig-
mite dry pine needles.
7. Use only electric lights to
decorate the tree-never can-
dies. Be sure to check lighting
sets before placing them on the
tree. Those with frayed wires
should be discarded. When you
buy a new set look for the UL
tag or label of Underwriters
Laboratories, Inc.
8. When you open presents
on Christmas morning, put
away gift wrappings you intend
to keep. Gather up other wrap
pings and throw them away
Immediately after presents are
opened.
9. The lights on Christmas
trees should be turned off when
everyone is away from home.
Change Lights
10. Check the tree for dry
ness from time to time. If
needles near lights have started
to turn brown, change the po-
sition of the lights.
II. When the needles start
falling, take the tree down inn
mediately and discard it out
doors.
IL. Even if the tree is still
fresh, plan now to dismantle it
the day after New Years.
13. Make sure your decora-
tive lighting does not overload
electrical circuits.

lie putty. Next, treat the alu-
minum to receive the paint by
using q chemical conversion
coating or by roughening the
surface.
Must "Etch" Surface
Primers to "etch" the sur
face are on the market but
one major aluminium company
recommends this formula:
Orthophosphoric acid, one
part; butyl alcohol, four parts;
isopropyl alcohol, three parts;
water. two parts. An alternate
solution is orthophosphoric
acid. seven parts: butyl alco-
hol, 10 parts: isopropyl alco-
hol, eight parts; water, seven
parts.
The solution should be mixed
in a glass or crockery con-
tainer as it will attack most
metals. Treat the hull by wet
ting it with the solution and
scrubbing with a briStle brush.
The aluminium should remain
wet for five minutes or until
gas bubbles are observed. II 1t
starts to dry. apply more.
After reaction has occurred.
rinse literally with fresh water
to remove all traces of acid
and let dry.
Vinyl. phenolic or alkyd
paints should be used.
Another company recon-
mendS three coats of silver
primer below the waterline fol-
lowed by two bottom anti
fouling coats.
Painting Canvas Deck
If you have an outboard
cruiser with a canvas deck.
you may want to refinish it
using this method:
I Clean and apply a printing
coat of marine paint thinned
not more than 10 per cent.
After 1t dries, sand gently. For
an extra smooth finish, apply
one coat Of brushing cement,
let dry and sand again.
Finish with two or three
coats Of marine paint, sanding
lightly between coats.
Personally. we like a non-
skid surface, obtainable by
adding compounds available at
any marine paint store to the
: finish.

good Scrubbing to remove
all dirt and grease. Rinse and
let the boat dry.
Look for dents, scratches
and abrasions and fill with a
Surfacing putty. Sand the en-
tire hull and dust with a
brushing liquid to remove all
particles before applying two
coats of good marine finish
Sand lightly between coats.
Most amateurs go astray in
putting on the waterline OF
boot-topping. It's easy if you
use masking tape and measure
carefully, drawing pencil lines
Painting FiberglaS
If the boat is fiberglas and
you want to change the color
scheme, clean thoroughly, sand
off all bumps and high spots
and scratch up the surface
with a wire brush used in a
circular motion. Do not polish
After wiping with brushing
liquid, apply one coat OF
primer, allow to dry and sand
! lightly. Follow with two OF
preferable three coats of ma
rine finish.
Modern aluminium boats are
resistant to salt water and
painting is done primarily for
decorative purposes. If your

that excellent catches of red
drum were being made near

afternoon.
Most OF the big rock in the

On the Piankatank. the
fishing is being done from the

BY CHARLES COVELL
Outdoor Editor

Your outboard rig ready
to 60 this spring? Cleaned
from personal experience
plus a half dozen technical
sources, here are some
pointers:
First, inspect for dry rot
If your boat is built Of wood or
plywood. Fortunately. out
boards are not as subject to
this destroyer as big boats with
their many bulkheadS, cabin
Innings and compartments. Out
board hulls are usually we'll
ventilated and when wet soon
dry out.
The term, dry rot. Of course
is actually a misnomer. Dry
wood does not rot. The enemy
is q fungus that thriveS in
warm. moist places with little
air circulation. If your cockpit
is tightly enclosed or you have
failed to leave the door or
hatch ajar on a forward locker
beware.
Wax As Yen Would Car
Should you discover crum-
bling wood, there is no cure
It must be removed and re-
placed. Spraying with penta-
chlorophenol or copper nap
thenate preServativeS helps to
prevent dry rot. and holes
should be bored in cockpit lin
inRs or bulkheads to provide
adequate ventilation if there
is none. Never use an air.
tight cockpit cover.
Assuming that you have
taken good care Of your boat,
the finish may be freshened
Just as you would the finish
on the family car.
Clean with a good detergent
and water, take off any stains
with a pre-wax cleaner and
then apply two coats of auto
wax. Wax the bottom Of the
hull. too. 1t will retard marine
growth and permit best pos
sible speed,
How 10 Refinish
The longer they remain on
the plastic upholstery. the
more stubborn dirt and other
stains become. Buy some up
