The Beacon SoIutes The Home e. Department

The Home Economics De-
partment of Lexington High
School with the Agriculture
Department forms a separate
building from the high school.
The department itself is di-
vlded into several different
rooms and is furnished to re-
semble the rooms of an actual
home. Here girls from the
eighth through twelfth grades
are taught the basic funda-
mentals of home-making.
one semester each year is
devoted to cooking and the
other to sewing. In cooking
girls learn how to cook and
preserve various foods. At
least once a year, they test
their cooking skill by inviting
the teachers to be their guests
at a meal they have prepared.
In sewing classes, students
are required to complete two
garments. These garments are
graded and are often display
ed for others to see.
Besides being taught cook
ing and sewing, girls also are
taught good-grooming habits,
methods of housekeeping, and
other useful subjects.
For the past seven years the
Home Economics Department
has been under the excellent
guidance of Mrs. E.. c.. Al
britton. Mrs. Allbritton gra-
duated from Bonneville High
School and received her Ba-
chelor of Science degree from
Mississippi Southern College.
She completed her Master of
Science degree at the Univer-
sity of Tennessee. Before
coming to Lexington in 1856
Mrs. Allbritton taught at
Northwest Junior College in
Senatobia, Mississippi.
The BEACON would like to
salute the Home Economics
Department and Mrs. Allbrit-
ton for her outstanding lead
ership and devotion for the
last seven years.

40-Foot Waves Hit
Havana SeuWuII

HAVANA, Jan. 8 (AP). -
Giant waves battered Havana's
Malecon seafront drive during
the night, opening up gaping
holes at several points. The
waves were believed caused by
an earthquake that rocked the
Dominican Republic last night.
Drivers avoided the six-lane
drive as huge rollers came
crashing over the seawall. Some
were at least 40 feet high.
Fascinated citizens gathered to
watch from a safe distance in
the MINDLESS night.
There were no reports of
casualties in the Dominican Re-
public. Some plate glass was
smashed in the capital and
parts of building cornices fell.
Long time residents said the
tremor was the strongest since
1916, when an earthquake
spawned a tidal wave that
caused many deaths.

Maryland Statute
BY MIRIAM GUTENBERG
Star staff Writer

The Supreme Court today
left standing Maryland's law
barring the sale of lewd, OBJ

The high court refused to
consider a constitutional chal-
lenge of the law by six Balti-
more booksellers convicted of
selling "girlie" magazines.
The Court of Appeals deci-
sion which the booksellers
sought to overturn was relied
on heavily by States Attorney
Leonard T. Hardy of Mont
gomery County last month in
winning the conviction of Sam
uel Yudkin for selling Henry
Miller's "Tropic of Cancer.
Mr.. Hardy said today that
he had relied on the Baltimore

He is free on bond pending an
appeal before the Maryland

dealers were convicted of SELL

tons on the sixth magazine and

concluded that the magazines
were obscene.

ing pursued by Russian planes. "
Sabena authorities in Istan-
bull and in Brussels, the lines
headquarters, said the plane
was forced by Soviet jets to put
down at the city of .Yerevan,
near the Soviet Turkish from
tier.
A Sabena spokesman in
Teheran said a radio compass
had failed, that the pilot,
Comdr. Freddy Moureau, re-
quested permission to make the
landing and that the Russian
fighters acted as an escort.
But the manager there
Walter Devros, subsequently
issued a statement contradict
ing this and conforming to the
account of other Sabena au-
thorities. He said the plane
was intercepted by a Soviet
fighter and forced to land"
On Normal Route
The plane should have
landed at Istanbul at TAO a I'M,
Mr.. Devros said, following its
normal route, which is not
very far from where the Soviet
fighter intercepted It,"
The plane carried 10 passen-
gers and 8 crew members.
Mr.. Devros said all were re-
ported safe.
Among the passengers was
one American, identified only
as a Mr.. Howen, flying to Eu-
rope from the Far East.
Sabena authorities in Brus-
sells said the Russians had
buzzed the airliner and that al
least two fighters were in
volved.
While the Teheran spokesman
insisted that the plane landed
voluntarily, other airport source:
said they had heard the pilot
radioing distress calls.

They reported he radioec

being followed by four Soviet
