that the tip Of the whip
breaks the sound barrier,
thereby causing the noise.
Another realistic application
of science in the near future

Australian Experience
Abounds in Hospitality

A years supply of southern
hospitality was bestowed upon
Miss Veronica Miller Of Wheat
on High while serving as an
exchange teacher in the south
ern most part of the inhabited
world, Australia. During the
school term of 1861 60, Miss Mil
ler changed places with
Brian Afford as chemistry, teach
er at Houn Weld High School in
Hounville, Tasmania.
Living conditions in Tasmania
were very good; the climate is
fair and there is plenty of
space to move in" Miss Miller
referred to the Houn Valley
where she lived as a garden
of paradise with its beautiful
mountains and many apple or
chards." Transportation was
mostly by imported motor car"
and buses which had wonder
full service" and respectful
drivers"
Changing places also included
a change in customs for Miss
Miller, especially in language.

cides to go to the university, he
must attend a year of matricula-
ton school before entering.
Socially, the Australian teen.
ayers are "shy compared with
American boys and girls" Miss
Miller said. Sports provide the
main attraction for excitment
and enthusiasm, along with Girl
Guides and Boy Scouts.
The thing that bothered Miss
Miller most while in Australia
was that the citizens there get
things that put the U. S. in the
worst light" She sighted such
things as gangster and TV vio-
lence. She also noted that they
have the impression that the
United States is so advanced
that we do nothing but sit in
the room and punch buttons"
However, many things there
delighted Miss Miller, including
the Is minute morning tea break
for teachers while the students
were at recess. She found the
Australians to be free and
easy, uninhibited" with "fresh,
open minds"
Now, back in the United
States, Miss Miller comments
that she Is glad to be home but
"Pll never forget the hospitality
of the Australians"
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1962-11-15

For instance, a boy once admit
ted to the American teacher that
he was Crook. After a few
nervous seconds, she was in
formed that this meant he was
Ill. Another language barrier
stumped Miller when she asked
someone to erase the blackboard
and received only blank stares
until she found out that the
word eraser" wasn't in their
vocabulary; instead they "clean
the blackboards." They also re-
fer to a guy as a "booke" and
yard goods are naturally, things
by the Yard" insead of our
familiar materials.
The Australian school system
also posed a change in customs.
The school year is from Febru-
airy to December and is COM
posed of three terms of twelve
weeks each. Between each term
is a seventeen-day vacation and
in the summer they have a six
week vacation. High school con-
