NewSchooIGoing Underground To Escape Noise of Jet Planes MKDI'OHU MAIL TltlUUNE. MliDl'OKD. OIUCGON I HIDAY, UlCCli.MBliR 211. 19IU A By MICHAEL WIHTTAKIiH LAKE WORTH, Tex. (UPD The whine of a B58 jet bomber hurtling down the nearby run way split the winter stillness. In their classrooms 1,715 school Fifty acres of land would cost us 5150,000. You can build a lot of classrooms for $50,000," Vaughn said. The new junior high will be lo cated in the center of a small complex of school buildings. Its children waited patiently for the roof will serve as a playground noise to stop. j for a nearby elementary school. "mats why we are going The cafeteria roof will be part undergroun d," Grady W Vaughn, school superintendent of this Fort Worth suburb, said. "We lose eight to ten per cent of our classroom time to those jets." Early next year work will be gin on a new junior high school. It will be built underground. "Those B58s take off from Carswell Air Force Base, just two miles away. Then they get the TFX (experimental fighter plane) it will be even noisier," Vaughn said. Construction Approved The voters of this small town recently approved construction of the $461,000 building. It will be the nation's second underground school. The first was built two years ago in Artesia, N. M. "That's what convinced us," Vaughn said, "Last summer the school board and 1 went out to look over their school. They were sold on it and so were we." "If this area develops as I think it will, in 10 to 15 years all the school buildings will be underground." Vaughn said that noise, al though the main problem, is not the only one. Cheaper Than Buying Land "Land prices here are very high. Going down into the earth is cheaper than buying land. of a street. "Building a school under ground isn't going to present any real problems.lt is just like building a giant basement." Architect T. E. Harden said. He glanced at the blue prints in his office at Preston M. Ger en, Architect k Engineer Co. in Fort Worth. "It looks sort of like a fat T. The cross bar will be the cafe teria and the classrooms the tail. The school will have 33,161 square feet," he said. "It should cost about the same as a building sitting on the ground rather than in the ground. We will save money on windows, exterior facings, and ornaments. The school won't have them." ' V t ,7 V V V MORE 5 "in Feeding the Family ZOUTA VINCENT Food Editor Two Portlanders Receive Threats PORTLAND (UP1) A visit ing civil rights worker and a Portland minister were placed under police protection Thursday after two threatening telephone calls. The protection was extended to Bruce Gordon of New York, field secretary of the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Com mittee (SNCC), and Rev. Ralph Moore, pastor of the Highland Congregational Church and head of a group called Portland Friends of SNCC. Mrs. Moore said she received a call Thursday in which a man said Gordon would "leave Port land in a pine box" unless he got out of town within 24 hours. The caller telephoned back later to confirm the threat. Uev. Moore said he had re ceived crank calls and letters ever since he came to Portland three years ago, "but I took this call seriously because the man threatened murder and be cause recent events have shown there are unbalanced persons who could carry out such a threat." Vessel Removal Bids To Be Asked Bohemian Braid Beloved of Bakers One of the oldest of Christmas customs is the serving of fancy breads. Today's baker, at home or in the biggest of our bake-shops turns out colorful, nut and citron sprinkled de lights for family enjoyment. You'll find handsome braided breads in local bakeshops or you can make Hoska like this: 1 cup milk 'i cup butter or margarine cup sugar ' teaspoon salt Vi cup warm (not hot) water 2 packages or cakes yeast, ac tive dry or compressed 2 eggs, beaten 5',i cups sifted enriched flour (about) "i cup chopped citron V. cup raisins Vi cup chopped almonds 1 egg V cup whole blanched al monds Scald milk Stir in margarine or butter, sugar and salt and cool to lukewarm.

When baked, split and fill with any thawed fruit or ber ries and top with whipped cream. Creamed Onions Arc Traditional One of the traditional vege tables for Christmas dinner is creamed onions, no matter what meat is served. We make this a dish to remember by adding a three-ounce package of cream cheese and some diced canned pimiento (optional) to the white sauce. Figure two pounds small on ions for six servings. Cook peeled onions in rather deep, boiling salted water, uncovered, just until tender, about 15 min utes; drain. Add onions to a well-seasoned white sauce with the cream cheese added. On ions may be cooked day before; added to cream sauce at serv ing time if you're looking for lime savers. Many Christmas Uses For Aluminum Foil Time for final wrap-up, time for house decorating and tree do-dads. So here are some sug gestions utilizing our year round kitchen helper, inexpen sive, glistening aluminum foil for packaging and for beautiful holiday decorations. Foil can dramatize important gifts, make modest ones look im- i pressive. Gaily colored and sea-1 sonal designs are now avail able. Aluminum foil is fine "as is" i but it takes on new interest when crushed, pleated or ham- j mercd for package wrappings . and for decorations. For soft j effect, simply crush foil by ; crumpling very gently first in one direction and then in the other. For pleating, press together j using medium hot iron, two j sheets of foil with waxed paper ; between. This gives strength, smoothness and body to foil and makes it easy to use. For pearly effect, press one sheet of foil with waxed paper. Arrange in any width pleat desired. For hammered effect, use eraser end of pencil, pressing ' and twisting gently into foil surface. Good for edging and for design-making. j More Foil Fancies Cut out foil initials, mono-' beef, ! grams, silhouettes and paste i i them on. ; ! Roll a bottle of anvlhic or a lipstick in a piece of foil, bring ends together at top, press i firmly, cut ends into fringed tassel. Make pert little pouches for j candy, envelopes for hankies, j nylons or whatever. i Spread foil under a lace tablecloth. It will catch the glimmer of candlelight while protecting your table. Cut cardboard stars, angels, Santas or other traditional shapes and cover both sides with foil, hang on tree or win dow decoration or use as win dow shade pulls. Arrange gay table, buffet or entrance hall piece by wrap ping fruit and nuts in foil of assorted colors; use this fruit alone or in combination with real or imitation fruit or some shrubbery greens from the yard or some pyracantha or holly. Spread shimmering (oil under tree. Non-flammable, it molds perfectly into hills, caves. Add greens, artificial snow, figurines. It protects floor, reflects tree lights beautifully.
