PALM BEACH, Fla. (Spe-
cial to The Starr. - Palm
Beach probably is having the
biggest season of it's history
and President Kennedy con-
tinues to be the resorts chief
attraction, next to its climate.
People continue coming to
see the c. Michael Paul home
at COL North County road,
where the Kennedys spent
the holidays, and the ocean
front villa of the Presidents
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph
P. Kennedy, at 1905 North
Ocean boulevard. This latter
residence is where the First
Family spent last week end.
AT the Chamber of Com
nferce, people continue to
come in. as they did last year.
to inquire of the Kennedy
address since the former Am
basSador does not list his tel
ephone number in the di-
rectory. The Social Index,
the blue book of the resort,
carries nearly everyone's tele-
phone number, but not the
Kennedy's.
The public was able to see
the Paul estate yesterday. 1t
was one of four homes opened
for the annual house and
garden tour. sponsored by the
Episcopal Churchwomen Of
the Bethesda-by-the Sea.
New Device
When President Kennedy's
staff returned last week end
to the winter White House
headquarters at the Palm
Beach Towers they found a
new handy little device avail
able.
Heretofore it was a problem
for any of them to wander
" too far from the communi-
cations room at the Towers
because important matters
were apt to arise momentum
lily. Now, with the aid Of two
small gadgets, slightly larger
than a cigarette pack, they
may be reached within a H.
mile radius of the hotel.
One box fits into the left
breast pocket and is the re-
ceving unit while the other
fits into the right pocket and
is the transmitting unit.
Each staff member has a
secret code calling number
which will be changed at reg
llar intervals. If they should
be further away than the r.
mile radius they will still re-
ceive a message and can head
for the nearest phone to re-
port.
Art Released
Alexander Kirkland, d.
rector Of Gallery IA, has re-
ceived the nod from Mrs.
Robert Kennedy. wife Of the
Attorney General, to release
. the hitherto closely guarded
secret that Moura Chabor
paintings were playing an
important part in the decor
Of the Kennedy home at Nc
Lean, Va.
Prior to leaving for Wash
ington recently, Mrs. Kennedy
visited the gallery, where
Miss Chabor is again show
ing this year, and she bought
another of the French-Amer-
lean artists delightfully."- diff
ferent paintings Of Paris and
French childhood scenes.
Mrs. Kennedy became In
terested in the Chabor work
while here last season and
bought several paintings
which she took north to her
home, which she was engaged
in decorating. Reluctant to
have any publicity on the
purchases, she agreed to the
publicity this time as a cour-
tesy to the artist.
Appearance
The Presidents mother,
Mrs. Joseph P. Kennedy, ap-
peared the other night at
the Kiwanis Club benefit
where Victor Borge staged a
oomic-pianist show. At the
intermission, she was visiting
with Mrs. L. P. Ordway, a

respect to its snow removal plans

However, we must also depend
on citizens preparedness and CO.

"We know we can expect fre-
quent periods which will test
us and which may present cer-
tain elements of danger" he
went on. "a snow storm can do
more than cause exasperating

For example, the stalling of

block the work of snow plows

"Short of that, traffic tie

Snow Tires Effective
"Tests have shown that
modern-design snow tires can aid

Proprietors of retail stores
were urged by Fire Chief Fred
Lange to participate in fire
prevention during the Christ
mas season by checking their
premises, including stock rooms
for combustible trash.
The Chief offered these sug.
gestions:
BE SURE all employees know
what to do in case of fire. Fire
drills should be held regularly
EMPLOYEES should be
taught to work in teams il
fire should occur. One member
of the team should help evac-
uate customers and another
should quickly call the fire
department.
CHECK ALL exits to be sure
they are accessible, and have
each exit marked clearly with
a sign reading "EXIT."
Fire has better chance of
striking your home at Christ
mas than at any other time of
the year-and for six reasons
the chief said.
He listed the causes as fol-
lows: A dried out Christmas
tree, Christmas candles. Over

English Class
Load Cut Gains

lAio1 EUCLID AVENUE
EAST CLEVELAND. Q
l4.e50 Circulation
Guudnteed

A cut in the class load Of
English teachers has won hon.
ors for two Greater Cleveland
high schools.
Shaw High of East Cleveland
and Chagrin Falls High were
cited on Nov. 22nd when the
National Council of Teachers
of English (NCTE) met in Mi
ami Beach, Florida.
They were two of only four
in Ohio named. The others were
Rutherford B. Hayes High
School, Delaware, and the Hills
dale School, a private school
in Cincinnati.
Their accomplishment was
meeting the NCTE recommend
alton of not more than four
classes of 25 pupils for each
English teacher.
In addition, ut-of-class re-
sponsibilities of the teachers
were reduced so they could
devote more time to "thought-
full teaching Of language, lit
erature and composition" said
James r. Squire, NCTE exc
cutive secretary.
In some Cleveland nigh
schools the typical English
teacher has six classes Of 80
pupils each. If the teacher tried
to assign one theme a week
and spent only 10 minutes in
grading each theme, it would
require 25 hours.
The result is that theme as
signments and essay-type tests
are not given as often as
teachers and school officials
wish. The problem is considered
acute for college bound young
sters, for most college-entrance
exams and the college work it
self in all subjects require a
good knowledge of English.
Chairmen of the English de-
partments at the award-win-
ming schools here are George
E. Todd at Shaw and Claude
Colvin at Chagrin.
