ing their projects to their
friends was a sense of accomp-
lishment in itself. Instead of a
general assembly, the program
was narrated over the inter
communication system, while
the viewers were passing to OBJ
serve the various projects. A
statement of welcome was CIV
en- on behalf of Principal L. ].
Marshall, members of the fac
ulty and the entire student body.
A brief statement of purpose
was given for the holding of
Science Fairs:
l. Pupil Growth and Develop
ment.
2. To Call Attention to the
Correlation of Science and
Mathematics, and their relation
snip to everyday life.
3. To afford an additional
media through which the prin-
ciples of the Scientific method
may be taught.
There is not space here to
list every name and the names
of the projects, but there were
ample projects in both Science
and Mathematics. In nature and
scope; there were Biological
projects, Chemical and Physical
Science ones. From computers,
to the kinds of machine that
"think" were featured from the
Mathematics area. In Physics
tEere were motors, specific
gravity projects, and Rockets
into space. Botany was well
represented from the affects of
weather on monocots to the af-
fects of Acetylene gas on the
growth of plants. There were
projects on light effect, hor-
none variation and conductivity.
To sum it up nicely, there
were projects representing ev-
cry area of Science and mathe-
matics at the school; and on all
grade levels, TIP.
All eyes now turn toward the
city-wide Science Fair to be
held at College Park Auditorium

the other city schools, will enter

African Student
Helped By
Pa. Township
Lancaster, Pa.


Tom Dugba is a first-year
student at Millersville State
College whose tuition and
living expenses are being paid
by junior high school pupils OF
suburban Mannheim Township.
1t comes to 81, 200 a year.
In return all they are asking
of Mr.. Dugba is that he share
the culture of his homeland,
Sierra Leone in Africa, with
the classes of the Junior high
school.
He does this by speaking to
various classes about native
customs and ways of life.
81 really don't understand
why these children do this for
me. but l am very grateful" he
says.
His presence in the United
States is not related to the
foreign exchange student pro-
gram. 1t is free enterprise from
the start, the idea coming from
the Junior high school pupils as
a school-wide project. His
name was obtained from the
African-American Institute
which recommended him to the
children.
1t has turned into quite a
project, too. Pupils being pu-
pills, didn't realize how much
money $1,000 can be. They
have set about raising it by
sponsoring dances and selling
items. Their latest enterprise
venture is student-formed
company to sell finger rings.
The rings will be made in
the school metal shop. Their
sale price will be from between
ST to S1.50. Committees have
been formed for distribution of
the rings which can be ordered
complete with the engraved
initials of the purchaser.
Loan Advanced
Formation of the student
firm to sell the nickel silver
rings came about because the
tom Dugba Fund" is running
out of money. And the chill
dren are committed to compile
tion of his education, another
three years at nearby Millers-
vile College.
Money to set up the student
corporation came from the stu
dent council which advanced a
$50 loan to buy supplies and
begin mass production of the
rings.
Mr.. Dugba is studying indus
trial arts at Millersville be-
cause he feels it is in this line
of endeavor that he can be of
the most benefit to his native
country when he returns as an
instructor.

PARISH STREET SATUR-
DAY NIGH8: You've heard me
say before here something about
how Aint Haggar's Chillun,
from way back, learnt to sing
about, instead of talk about
what they think, and one of the
most meaningful and truthful
of the songs invented by the
tribe-o-Haggar to give vent to
their thinking is the one that
you used to hear lot back in
the days of my Grandma, but
for one reason or another, pro-
badly because of its kinda sting
ing truth, you don't hear much
now-o-days, subject IF YOU
CALL THAT RELIGION .
NO . NO ITSA SCAN
LESS AND A-SHAME .
What made me think of this old
song is that l was in one of
my favorite spots seeking some
of the fruit of the stream, and
of the vine (Fish & Beer to you)
when I heard conservation
going on in back of me about a
program going on at church, on
Sunday with folks coming from
way-yonder somewhere, on the
program to sing some of the
Lords songs, but with the
Christians, men, women, and
children, having to pay a fee of
six-bits and a dollar to come
into the House of the Lord to
hear them songs sung :. which
from what l heard looked lack
a storm has just about been
brewed-up over the Church in
question seeming that it's al
ready been said on some good
authority that if religion was
something that money could,
buy, the rich would live and
the poor would die which
come to think about it, might
also be one of the songs-o-the-
tribe From what heard of
the conversation which quoted
all the prophets of old and even
went on to talk about the day
when the Man of Gallilee got
mad and took some buggy whips
and drove the money changers
out of the Temple this charging
for to come into the House of
the Lord to hear the Lords
songs sung on Sunday is car

 ALASKA RESOURCES UTILIZED. The gross vol ume of resources manufactured in Alaska rose approximately $73,000,000 between 1858 and 1861, a 35% increase.
 DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND PLANNING. At Governor Egan's urging, the Legislature created department of state govern ment charged solely with the responsibility for promotion and coordination of development on wide variety of fronts, and to conduct feasibility studies and assist communities to expand their job and business opportunities.
