U n io n 2 8 3 -3 5 2 5 A quality American »ubur ban home, conventional In up|iearanre but the first ever constructed prim arily of re cycled materials, was ready for occupancy in Richmond, Virginia. The four lied room tri level has a family room with fire place, attached garage, two and a half baths, plus the s ta n d a r d a s s o r tm e n t of rcxims; but this home is like no other ever built anywhere at anytime. I t is made al most entirely from materials that have served other pur poses in an earlier life, and have now a new life as build ing products. Aluminum beverage cans picked off a Florida beach, glass bottles from California parks, old newspapers from New Jersey, fly ash collected from a smoke stack in West Virigina, scrap fibers gath ered from North Carolina carpet plants, processed gar bage from New York City, worn out auto tires from Mississippi, and fibers from a municipal waste separation plant in Ohio are just some of the materials that went to make up this unique home. A project coordinated by Reynolds Metals Company, a pioneer in the recycling of aluminum, aided by about 30 companies which contributed products and technical assis tance, the home was built to prove that there are today practical uses for recycled materials. These products not only help conserve nat ural resources and energy and help nduce the problem of solid waste disposal, but the resulting products are as good as competitive, virgin materials, according to Rey nolds. The home marks the first use of two developments. The most extensive is the Reynolds Reynoframe system in which aluminum extru sions replace wood for the framing, joists and trusses. The driveway is a unique com bination of reclaim ed rubber and crushed glass. Glass cullet was used to replace gravel as the fill material under the concrete slab in the home's recre ational room and garage. I t was used in the composition of the masonry block. In sulation was made of waste glass and steel mill slag. hom e Waste paper and wood products are used exten sively. A board made pri marily from recycled news papers replaced plywoixl for the su b flo o ring , sidew all sheathing, roof deck and burlap covered interior panel ing. These products were nailed directly to the alumi num framing. Interior paneling of re cycled paper with vinyl cov ering was used in three of the rooms. Cabinetry for the kitchen and baths is made of fib e rb o a rd produced from scrap wood and sawdust. A t least two of the pro ducts in the house have traditionally been made from reclaimed materials - the asphalt roofing shingles of reclaimed paper and fibers and the cast iron sewer pipe. Scrap copper was used for w ater tube. A ll carpet in the house is made from reclaimed nylon fiber. Fly ash, collected in air pollution control equip ment at a coal burning elec trie power plant, replaced 20 percent of the Portland ce ment used in the concrete. Another powdery material. titudes among students in the Portland Public Schools. The program is directed by D r. W illiam A. Jenkins, dean of the School of Educa tion. His assistant is Dr. William A. Proppe, associate professor of education. "This program attempts to tie together the University and the needs of the public schools and to avoid and cor rect some isolation in the p ast,” P ro p pe explained. "This grant will provide time to work and plan together." Proppe also said the PACE program could benefit vet eran public school teachers who face a changing student body and are seeking new ways of teaching effectively. — - Zeudi Araya is a 21 year old beauty who won the Miss Ethiopia title in 1969.

It's an experience, a movie that depicts the five days of Expo presented in musical and narrative form and leaves those who have seen it in spired and revitalized. Paramount Pictures has acquired the United States and C anadian d is trib u tio n rights to "Save the Children”. The movie premieres in New York City on Wednesday, September 19 uptown in Harlem in the famed 125th Street Apollo Theater, and downtown at the Criterion Theater. “Save the Children” fea tures the musical talents of such stars as Marvin Gaye (he opens with the theme song), the Jackson Five, the Staple Singers, The Tempta lions, The Main Ingredient, Isaac Hayes, Bill W ithers, and Curtis Mayfield. , One of the highlights is when Sammy Davis, Jr. ap pears just after he had embraced President Nixon at the Republic National Con vention.

Reynolds also developed a new "non aluminum” product in the house. When a re cycled floor tile became dif ficult to find, the company developed a tile utilizing scrap vinyl plastic. To pro duce different effects, the vinyl scrap was combined with wood chips for the family room and with bauxite and alumina (aluminum's ore and raw material for the kitchen.
