Chico High plans to hold
basketball game between students
and faculty. The top sophomore
and junior teams will be selected
from among the intramural bas
ketball squads to play a prelimi
nary game. After the first contest,
a senior squad, coached by the
senior class president, will play a
team fielded from among the
male members of the faculty.
Jobs after school for Portland
High students are offered by the
Neighborhood Youth Corps. Stu
dents 16 years of age and over
can apply for a job at school and
are paid $1.25 an hour. Students
should not work more than ten
hours a week. Employees work
under the supervision of a teach
er, custodian, or building super
visor. The purpose of the organi
zation is to enable students to
learn the skills required to hold
a job.
VANITY FAIR
What new fashion trends are
in store for this spring? They are
many and varied. Sweaters for
spring, made up in various styles,
are here. The "bigger classics"
are loose and heavy knit, made
from Shetland and mohair wool
Also here are the "ribbed skin
nies," a close-fitting sweater made
with a ribbing pattern for a
sporty look. Take your pick from
many colors and styles. For
dress and evening, choose a pastel
hell top. Made from mohair wool
in a fine knit, these sweaters can
be worn casual or dressy. The
newest craze is the yarn flowers
and designs decorating them, in
wild and contrasting colors.
For a different, off-beat look,
try the crazy cut-outs Sniffs and
blouses and swimsuits are de
signed with cut-outs in the back,
front, sides, or sleeves. "Unex
pected" is a good woid for the
garment made like this. Never
mind the bewildered looks you
might get. Be an individualist.
old. Most of them were gold or
silver and decorated with pre
cious jewels.
In the afternoon I visited the
Via Venetto area. This is where
the American Embassy is located
and where the rather expensive
shops of Rome are situated. This
street is where many of the
American tourists gather, so it is
more American than Italian. Most
of the materials for sale in the
shops were quite high priced.
Vatican Museums
The second morning Mrs. Her
bert and I toured the Vatican
Museums. We spent over four
hours there, but could have spent
several days. The museums con
tain many priceless paintings,
sculptures, antiques, tapestries,
etc. The Vatican treasury con
tains gifts to the PoDes from
visiting dignitaries. Here again
were millions of dollars' worth of
gifts. The Sistine Chapel was
crowded with people. There I
saw Michelangelo's paintings on
the ceiling of the creation of the
world and of man. On the wall
behind the altar is his famous

cational program.
On the third day I visited the
National Museum and several
other areas of interest. During
the afternoon I accompanied Mrs.
Herbert and her brother on a
drive around other parts of Rome.
We toured the Exposition area
that was begun for a World's
Fair in 1952. The Fair was never
held, but some of the buildings
were used for the 1960 Olympics.
It is an area of beautiful modern
buildings. We drove out the old
Appian Way past the homes of
many of the Italian movie stars.
Mrs. Herbert's brother is a TV
producer and director in Rome.
We also toured the Square of the
People, the Square of Novano

Friday the 7th of August I took
the train from Rome to Milan.
I had purchased a first-class
ticket so I would be sure to have
a seat. But I rode in a second-
class compartment all day be
cause the first-class sections
were full. The train I took was
the Italian-Holland express. I
had quite a day of watching the
changing scenery of Italy. The

than the south. Many of the
southern farmers still use oxen
or do the work by hand.
