When we started to prepare our
news we listed items on the chalk
board in which we thought the
readers would be interested. Then
we numbered the items and tried
to arrange them in sequence. Pu-
pills volunteered to write about
specific topics. After these topics
were written they were combined
to make one article.
AS we looked back over the time
which has passed since our last
article, we were surprised to see
how many interesting things we
have done. Is it any wonder that
our school year has gone so fast?
We have used the tape recorder
many times. At first we were shy.
Now we are used to hearing our
voices. We know how we sound to
others. Each one is trying to i'm
prove his or her speech habits.
We have recorded table graces,
original poems, an arithmetic les
son, social studies lesson, intro
ductions, and being good room
hosts and hostesses. Lew s
Harrington and Kathy Jefferson
assist the teacher when she uses
the tape recorder.
We have made table decorations
twice to use on our table in the
cafeteria. They looked very pretty.

OLD.FASHIONED PIGEONS

CAIRO (AP) = The authorities
have discovered that Egyptian
pigeons just will not accept mod
ern ways.
Ten clean, modern lofts, cost
ing LIE 5000 ($14,350) were built
recently in villages around the
port of Damietta along the Medi-
terranean coast.
Government engineers designed
the lofts to foster pigeon raising
along the most modern lines,
building them of cement an d
bricks.
The pigeons fled and never re-
turned.
Bird experts announced t h ir
analysis: The pigeons could not
adapt to life inside the cement
lofts because the nests were too
small and it was too hot during
the day and too cold at night.
The result: The Damietta gov
ernor ordered the lofts rebuilt on
the old style-with mud and un-
baked bricks.

Dennis Hall gave an interesting
demonstration on organic matter
and soil. Cheryl Anderson pre-
pared a demonstration with lima
beans to show the direction in
which roots grow.
We have enjoyed our Music
| classes. The folk songs and dances
have been helpful in our Social
Studies classes. We like the songs
we sing. Some of our boys and
| girls act as song leaders during
our daily singing period. We had
an interesting filmstrip on musical
| instruments. We can identify most
| of the instruments used in an
| orchestra and a band.
This winter we had our physi-
cal education classes in the all
purpose room or gymnasium. We
have learned to square dance. We
have also learned to use the equip
| ment in the gym. We have used
| the rings, the mats, balance beams,
| the horse, the rope, the ladder, the
chinning bar, and other equipment
We have done forward rolls, back
| ward rolls, seal walks, crab walks,
and pyramids. In April we will
have our classes on the play
ground.
Our last project in Art was to
make marionettes. The pieces of
wood are fastened with screw
eyes. We have dressed and strung
them. 1t took a lot of time, skill
and imagination. After the first 2
art lessons We completed most of
them at home. We have a Mexi-
can boy, Dutch girl, Chinese girl,
Swiss girl, farmer, ring master,
square dancer, Indian. pioneer
scout, sailor, clown, and many
others. Our teacher also made one
She dressed hers like native
Hawaiian dancer.
We are now making plaster of
paris carvings. We brought milk
cartons to school and filled them
with liquid plaster of paris. We
bounced them up and down on our
desks so that the air bubbles
would come to the top and break
open. When they were hard we
tore the milk cartons away. After
a week we will start our carving.
We hope to have some beautiful
objects.
Recently some of us wrote
some of our thoughts on Spring"
Here are two examples.

Politics and the Supreme Court

mittee ally liked
"Whizzer" White. They must
also have known, however.
that in his work as Deputy
Attorney General during the
last IL months he had Sifted
all the recommendations for
the appointment of nearly 100
Federal judges and didn't
find a single Republican
anywhere who was qualified
for a new appointment to the
bench until recently when,
after a public furor about 1t,
two Republicans were nomin-
ated by President Kennedy.
This same Bar Association
committee had found among
these appointees seven men
who were mot qualified" but
they were nevertheless named
Federal judges. Did Mr..
White protest, or was his
sense of fairness rubbed off
somewhat as he expediently
obeyed the political require
mentS set down for him by
the administration?
Mr.. White was the head Of
the National Citizens Com
mittee for Kennedy during
the 1860 presidential cam
paign and has been a close
friend of the President for
20 years. The New York
Times in an editorial on Sun
day said about the new ap-
pointee: @
Certainly he has not yet
achieved the scholarly legal
distinction that would JUS
tify hailing his appointment
as a great and inevitable one.
Indeed. his most noted pub
lie role to date has been as
chairman of the Citizens for
Kennedy"
Mr.. Kennedy wasn't elected
to the highest office in the
land to reward his friends
and political lieutenants. Su-
preme Court Justices don't
serve just a four-year term.
They are appointed to serve
for life-through different
administrations. Mr.. White,
who is only "A years old, is
expected to interpret the
Constitution in behalf of all
the people of the United
States, not just Democrats
but Republicans as well, and
not just liberals" but CON
servativeS." too. That's where
the title "All-American" can
really come to mean some
thing besides achievements
on the football field.

President Kennedy's request
for 5000 million for public
works came under Republican
attack today as IAN extra
ordinary confession of failure
by the administration" to re-
duce unemployment. $50
Senator Bush, Republican OF
Connecticut. said the public
works proposal is a "grandioSe
but largely empty gesture" and
that 'it certainly is no solu-
ton to the unemployment
problem"
Speaking for the Republican
members of the Senate House
Economic Committee, Senator
Bush challenged what he term
ed the administrations claim
that the unemployment picture
has improved substantially in
recent months. He also slap
ped at its approach to the
problem Of unemployment.
I'VE believe that our unem-
ployment problem-serious to-
day-could become staggering
by the end of this decade un-
less vigorous yet realistic ac-
ton to combat it is taken,'
Senator Bush said in a pre-
pared Senate speech. .
He accused the administra-
ton of failing to get at the
root causes and of persisting
in prescribing higher Govern
ment expenditures as ''its
favorite unemployment device ;"

employment by about 10000

In the meantime" he added,

Senator Bush said that even

labor force is totally or par
tally unemployed despite a
"brisk recovery" from last
years recession.
There is obviously a hard
core of unemployment which is
not readily affected by in
creased demand" even when
artificially stimulated by Fed
eral spending. he said.
Senator Bush said there is

the unemployment problem,
and that no significant i'm
provement can be expected un-
til the administration adopts
ideas more appropriate to to-

President Seen as Simply Not Ready
To Remoke Court in His Political Imooe
DORIS FLEESON

President Kennedy's choice
of Byron r. White of Colo
rado, A. for the Supreme
Court is strictly personal.
The President was simply
not ready to remake the
Court in his political image;
he had not expected to be
compelled so soon to initiate
change there.
The ailing Justice Charles
E. Whitaker whom Justice
White replaces is only 81,
third youngest on the nine
man court. Justice Whit
taker had not been there long
enough to make a profound
impression and he was mod
estly moderate a type which
can be useful on an appellate
bench but doesn't lead or lend
itself readily to a category.
The President was both
taken by surprise and under
no pressure to name a partic-
ular style of judge. The same
will not, incidentally, be true
Of some of the older judges;
there is a considerable opin-
ion here that the President
alre a dy knows what he
thinks about them.
In this instance he has
achieved principally the plac-
ing of what politicians would
call his own man on the
Court. This does not at all
mean that the new justice
will take his views from Mr..
Kennedy or run to him with
the Court news, hot off the
judicial grapevine.
But the two men are close
in many ways; they owe one
another a considerable debt.
There is ample precedent for
a President to look to a mem
ber of the Court for counsel
Evening star., 1962-04-02

as President Truman did
with Chief Justice Vinson.
Besides, only the most
naive could believe that the
Court. Under our system. has
ever operated in a lofty vacu-
um. far from the maddening
crowd and the power elite
here. Justice Frsnkfurter is
justly famous for getting
there firstcsC with the most
est access to certain sectors
of what might be called The
Establishment. Others Of his
colleagues have their own
followings.
Regarding White as judge,
there is no judicial record or
even a substantial record of
his conduct as a lawyer from
which to draw a forecast of
his opinions. His academic
record is notable and he is a
hard worker.
Washington found it
rather interesting that he
should appear to be, both in
the Kennedy campaign and
in the Justice Department,
a cautious and plodding type.
This is not usual in men or
women who have led their
class consistently at such
varied places as the Colo
RADIO public schools and Yale
Law School. Rhodes scholars
also tend to show consider
able self confidence in their
judgments.
Neither the depth of Jus
tice Whites convictions nor
of his intellect is altogether
clear to those who have
worked with him. An in
formed guess-and only a
guests that like the Chief
Justice with whom he will
serve. he is pragmatic rather
than intellectual. But un-

DAVID LAWRENCE

When a vacancy occurs
on the Supreme Court of
the United States, the
american people expect the
President to consider care
fully all lawyers with judicial
experience and to select the
best man to fill the post. Yet
all OF the judges today on
the Federal bench and the
chief justices of the highest
courts in each of the so
States of the Union were
passed over by President
Kennedy when he chose
Byron r. White to be a
Justice of the Supreme
Court of the United States.
This is the tragic fact that
emergeS as the American
people are told. in effect,
that it seemed most import
ant to the President to re-
ward a political henchman
and a friend Of long stand
ing who has never sat on the
bench in a Federal or a
State or a County or a City
court.
Without asking the advice
OF members of Congress or
requesting the various bar
associations to submit the
names Of prominent lawyers
qualified for the post, the
President-within a few days
after he learned that Justice
Whitaker planned to retire
made up his mind quickly
to give the post to a friend
who has had no judicial ex-
perience whatsoever.
1t will be argued that Pres
icent Eisenhower appointed
Earl Warren as Chief Justice
even though he, too, had
never sat on the Federal
bench. But two wrongs do
not make a right. This
correspondent, on October /,
1858, wrote as follows:
Politics has often played
a part in choosing members
OF the judiciary-including
selections to the Supreme
Court of the United States.
But that doesn't make it a
commendable practice.
THE designation of Gov.
Warren Of California to be
Chief Justice of the United
States will be acclaimed by
the politicians as a smart
appointment but will be dis
approved by those members
Of the bench and by prac-

Choice of White Strictly Persona

like the amiable Chief, JUS
tice White has ulcers which
suggest some bondage to the
counsel of perfection.
Then there is that matter
of commitment, so often raised
in connection with readings
of the Presidents character.
Nobody seems to sense JUS
tice Whites commitments to
public policy-and while he
has been demonstrably an
apt pupil he does not seem
the disciple type.

Kennedy Seen Wrong in Passing Over
Present Judges to Name Byron White

ticing lawyers who still cling
to the old-fashioned idea
that, when it comes to select
ing Justices for the Supreme
Court of the United States,
the choice should be made
from the ablest jurists in the
Nation"
Mr.. Eisenhower, however,
did turn to the bench when
he appointed four other men
to the Supreme Court-Jus-
ticeS Harlan, Brennan, Whit
taker and Stewart. Every one
had had experience either on
the Federal bench or on the
highest court Of a State.
1t certainly must be dis
couraging to the many judges
who have dedicated their
lives to the law to find the
principles of a merit system
being ignored by President
Kennedy.
The American Bar Asso-
citation itself, moreover,
which has a special response
bility to the Nation, unfor-
tunately did not measure up
either, in this instance. It
has a regular committee
which. when called upon by
the Department of Justice,
passes on the qualifications
of prospective nominees for
the bench. This committee,
in a statement last week,
said Mr.. White appears to
be exceptionally well quail
fled" for appointment to the
Supreme Court, and then,
som VIII at apologetically,
added:
Ordinarily our committee
might hesitate to accord this
rating to a lawyer of Mr..
Whites comparative youth
when appointment to the Su-
preme Court of the United
States is concerned. However,
our committee has worked
closely with Mr.. White for
more than a year and we've
had an unusual opportunity
to observe him under a va
riety of circumstances. We
have developed a high regard
for his rugged adherence to
principle, his sense of fair
ness, his intellectual capacity,
his even temperament, his
soundness as a lawyer"
