Leo's similar feelings of fu tility can' often be dissovled In the course of his -work, with its many contracts and innovations. Women like Char lotte, however, who lose their sense of direction and purpose can usually regain it by the simple - though rarely tried - expedient of going A.W.O.L. which in domestic terms can stand fpr Absent With (Hub by s) O.K. and Love. , (Copyright 1960, General " Faaluraa Corp.)

Robert Myers, Mark Wright, Mike Bryant, Vicki Heath. Paula Bati, Craig Bryant, Donald Wilson and Max Higginbotham. In Mrs. Nancy Gustafson's first grade room we have been waiting for Christmas to ar rive. We made Christmas trees and decorated them and placed on our windows. We made angels out of crepe pa per and foil. Mr. and Mrs. McMahan brought us a Christmas tree for our room. We decorated it with chains, bells, and popcorn. We drew names for gift ex change. We each i made a Christmas stocking and Santa must have visited our room one night, because we came the next morning and found a candy cane in each stocking. Jn science, we have been studying weather. Donna Har ris gave an interesting report on fog; David DcCarlow, wind; Ricky Bailey, rain; Lola Beency, the thermometer, and Mark Carr, clothing worn in winter. In social studies and pen manship we have been learn ing how to write thank you notes. Mrs. Kathleen Wilson's third grade room's part in the Christmas program was about Christmas greenery. We sang some songs and some dancers did a dance. We fixed the hall bulletin board. Mark Whitney made a big Santa Claus and he put a star Santa Claus on a Christ mas tree. Ronjean Miner made the star. Ingrid Hoefle made a Santa Claus for our room. Vickie Heath made a snow man for our door. We have been giving book reports in our room. We had to tell the title, author, the main characters, and the part we liked best. We showed a picture of our favoritie part and told the rest of the class why we thought they would like it. We got a soccer ball and a basketball for our room. In Mrs. Ruth Dunn's second grade room we are getting ready for Christmas. We made pictures to decorate the room. We have also made angel and star tree ornaments. We had a small and a large Christ mas tree in our room. In Mrs. Ruth Urie's fourth grade room the Christmas tree looks nice. We had all of our presents under it, and had our room party Friday, Dec. 23:" ' We have a little bulletin board and have some winter scenes on it. We had a play Dec. 21. ' The first, second, and third grades at Oak Grove school had a Christmas program Wednesday, Dec. 21. We had a matinee in the afternoon, and a program at night. Some were bell ringers, and there was a voice choir and a singing choir. Santa Claus was there in the afternoon and gave candy to the children. The children of Oak Grove school saw interesting things from India at the' National School assembly Dec. 15. An interesting thing was a 12-foot tiger shot in India by Mr. Willet, the man who brought the things for us to see. , He showed us how the wom en wear their dresses. Other things he showed and explain ed were instrumental things such as pipes and drums used in music, arrows, knives, jewelry, and pots and pans. Friday, Dec. 23, the stu dents of Oak Grove school met in the gymnasium and gather ed around the Christmas tree, donated and decorated by the PTA, to sing Christmas carols. SIXTH VICTIM DIES Indianapolis, Ind.-fflPD-Ron-aid Coleman, 14, Monday be came the sixth member of his family to die of a fire which swept their Hartford City, Ind., home last Thurs day. Ronald died two days after his mother and four brothers and sisters were buried in Twin Hills ceme tery in Pennville, Ind. The flash fire was caused by an exploding jar of gasoline. Kennedy's Program To Face Test in House Next weeK Washington - IUPD - Demo cratic liberals hope President elect John F. Kennedy can offset the increased strength of the conservative bloc in the House by vigorous use of his presidential powers - pat ronage, persuasion and public pressure. A battle on the House floor next week will provide an immediate test of whether Kennedy has a chance to push much of his legislative pro gram through Congress. - The struggle will come over efforts to wrest control of the powerful House rules commit tee from a conservative coali tion which has dominated it for the past two decades. Power Over Bills Because of its power to de cide which bills the House can take up, the 12-man rules com mittee poses the number one congressional threat to Ken nedy's five-point program of liberal legislation. Liberals hope to break the rules committee's stranglehold on legislation by purging one nf thp southern Democrats or adding another member who would give the liberals t h e strength to out-vote the conservatives. 49 Japanese Deaths Attributed to Bomb Hiroshima, Japan - (UPD -The Hiroshima Atomic Dis ease hospital said today that 49 persons died during the first 11 months of 1960 from lingering effects of radiation caused by the atomic bomb dropped here more than 15 years ago. The hospital reported that 21 of the victims suffered blood disorders, such as leu kemia and anemia. The others died of liver diseases and can cer. In the same period last year, the hospital reported 38 deaths attributed to the after effects of the bombing. Kpnnedv sunDorters hava hinh hnnns nf keeDine the prospects for the President elects proposals alive Dy win ning the procedural fight for control of the rules commit tee. Compromise Seen But even if this initial fight is won, Kennedy probably will have to be satisfied with compromise 1 e g i s lation in most, if not all, the five do mestic areas to which he has assigned top priority. . ; Kennedy's priority program calls for expansion of slum clearance and other federal housing programs, expansion of the Social Security pro gram into the field of. medical care, an increase in the $l-an-hour federal minimum wage with expanded coverage and federal aid for education and for communities suffer ing from chronic unemployment. K e n n edy's congressional supporters foresee less trou ble in the relatively liberal Senate than in the House. - - '- irii 1 i ii i i an ni 1 a- a i i lafiannnrr " 1 - - - i i m m , , . , .. -a...
