More Party Ideas

To Mrs. P. S.. Washington
From Mrs. X. D., Washington
There is no more satisfac-
tory way of seeing in the
New Year than doing some
thing for others that might
otherwise be neglected.
My husband and I and
three couples, none of whom
like night-club type Of festiv-
ity, have for several years in
vited our friends who are
widows and widowers into
our home. We play charades,
cards. or other games, dance,
or Just talk.
1t is all very informal. We
usually start about 9 pm.
with a buffet supper and end
Just after midnight with cof-
fee and doughnutS.
The couples started by
sharing the expenses, but in
recent years the singles"
have been so delighted with
our quiet festivities that they
have insisted on helping nav
the bills.
We make no attempt to
keep things in couples, as
there are so many more wild
ows than available men, but
like to try to have enough
men around to keep it from
looking like a hen party.
If you and your husband
can work out something like
this, I know you will enjoy it
and your single friends, who
might otherwise be lonesome
will add to your pleasure.

State Has No Power To Operate School,
Judge Says; Tuition Grants Are Legal
Editorial
Another Step

Another step along the long and orduous path
Of legal moze was accomplished Wednesday when
Judge John Wingo Knowles Of Richmond Circuit
Court, rendered on opinion in deolorotoy judy
ment suit instituted by the Prince Edward School
Boord against the Stote Department Of Education ct
ols. A declorotory Judgment suit in lay language is
Q request to court to interpret the law in relation
to tocts presented to it.
In scholarly 3lpo9e opinion, Judge Knowles
decided that the State Board Of Education and the
Stote Superintendent Of Public Instruction have no
duty or power to operate public schools in Prince
Edward any other county, that the Prince Edward
School Board had performed its duty under the Con-
sttuton Of Virginia, that there is provision in the
U. 5. Constitution requiring stote to nnontoin
public schools thot the Virginia Constitution or
Stote Law does not prohibit the payment Of tuition
grants under the law regardless Of whether or not
public schools in operation in locality and that
funds required by the Constitution to be paid to
localities are limited to use in elementary education.
Judge Knowles opinion clashes With the opin-
ion Of Federal Judge Oren Lewis AIso his opinion is
subject to appeal for final State review by the Su-
preme Court Of Appeals of Virginia The most thot
con be sold at this time is that the Stote Court and
the Federal District Court opinions clash At least
the Federal Fourth Circuit Court has this opinion
from one Of Vrgnlo's outstanding Juriss to consider
IN making its decision upon questions now before it.
This opinion is the Virginia Interpretation Of its
lows ond Constitution at the time beng Even in Vlr-
ginio, the opinion is subject to review upon appeal
to the Supreme Court Of Appeals Of Virginia.
The Fourth Circuit Court (federoD hos before it

IS broader in scope The Fourth Circuit Court may
render its opinion without regard to the opinion Of
Judge Knowles. or if may volt for the Supreme Court
Of Virginia to consider the Knowles opinion upon OPP
