ORchord 3-7167 SECOND SECTION The Glendale School Board Approves Lunch Program Mrs. Laura P. Wells, director of the Oregon school lunch pro gram, was present at a recent special Glendale school board meeting, according to Mrs. G. B. Fox, News-Review correspondent. She explained the school lunch pro gram and what the school would be expected to do in participating. The board decided to use the pro gram this year. Under the state aid program, the school is required to serve a type A meal. It will be given certain surplus commodities, such as but ter, flour and some canned foods. This will enable the school to serve the same meal quality at a slightly reduced price. It is hoped the pro gram will enable the school sys tem to, reduce the present price by about five cents, said sohool officials. Miss Doris Holmes, health edu cation instructor, will be in charge of ordering and accounting for commodities received from the state program. It was announced that the steel counter topping for the grade school cafeteria has arrived, and plans are to open the cafeteria by Oct. 1. The board decided a t its last regular meeting to have repair work done on the grade school gym, where meals will be served, and to paint the walls and ceiling. Program Changes Accepted By PTA By JEAN YODER Those attending the first meet ing of the Days Creek Parent Teacher Assn. accepted most of the recommendations made by the executive committee, presented to tnem by the new president, Mrs. Frank Lee, recently. Major change recommended by the executive committee and ex plained by Mrs. Lee is to do away with the children's programs for merly presented each meeting, and substitute some other type of pro gram was accepted. Another rec ommendation was that the mem bership cards be available for sale. Archie Ferguson, school clerk, gave a complete report on the hot lunch program. - Mrs. I reported that the re turns on the Boy Scout questionaire showed at least 20 boys interested. The first meeting for those adults interested in helping with Scouts was held at the school last week. There was a vigorous discussion on why the school board had can celled the annual school picnic, us ually held the last day of school in the spring. Mrs. Louis Morris ask ed board member Lawrence Mi chaels if the PTA could do any thing to get the board to change its decision. Michaels replied that the board was not acting arbitrar ily and would appreciate having interested people come to the next board meeting to express their views. Although there were many ab staining votes, the PTA voted to have Mrs. Morris and Durin Swing ley go to ihe next meeting and ask the board to reconsider. According to Michfrels, the board felt that fewer and fewer adults were at tending the picnic.and that since the picnic had formerly been a general meeting and games day for the entire community, it had outgrown its us and should be abolished. Mrs. Joe Kapuscinski, secretary said that they should change the idea of the picnic, with it to be a day for the children, rather than for the entire community. A teachers' reception followed with School Supt. Marlon Yoder introducing each of the teachers. Benton PTA Schedules Chili Supper, Carnival A Benson PTA eommlttee meet ing was held last Wednesday at the home of Mrs. Ira Byrd to for mulate plans for the annual chili supper and carnival to be held at the Benson School Friday, Oct. 12, beginning at 5 p.m. This affair will be sponsored by the PTA.

Navy Scientists Say Moon Flight Is Now Possible WASHINGTON I Two Navy scientists said today it may have become possible to send a rocket to the moon. The rocket probably would de liver no more than a "four-pound payload" to the moon, said Kurt R. Stehling, chief of propulsion at the Naval Kes,earcn L,aooraiory here, and Richard Foster, a mem ber of the laboratory propulsion staff. For that reason, they said, the initial payload might consist of nothing but a charge of metallic dust. They said that if it were fired at a new moon ana it 11 land ed on the darkened surface, the impact might be witnessed from the earth as a large bright flash. Stehling and Foster expressed their views in an article prepared for a new magazine, Missiles and Rockets. The article is based on a paper scheduled to be read at the International Astronautical Feder ation Congress in Rome. ' " They stressed that the opinions expressed were not to be construed as reflecting the views of the Navy Department. ' " ' 1 ' Stehling and . Foster said that "when carried aloft to 70.000 feet by a huge four-million-cubic-f 0 0 1 skyhook balloon, a solid-propellant step rocket will De capable of bringing a four-pound payload to the moon." They noted that small rockets frequently have been carried aloft and launched from balloons, but added that a lunar rocket might require a cluster of smaller bal loons for greater stability. .The Rocket would be launched straight up, through the balloon or balloons they said. The Navy scientists proposed a three-stage rocket vehicle which they said should hurtle the pay load toward the moon. The dis tance between the moon and the earth varies from 221,463 to 252, 710 miles as the moon moves around its orbit.
