the benefit of the people of Ath
ens and Clarke county since that
timre. The plant is under the sup
ervision of the Homemaking and

Negro Farmer s
Happy Over
. -
Saving His Wheat
Wm. T. Hunter, negro farmer
residing in the Princeton district,
brought another early Clarke
county cotton bloom to Athens
yesterday and was enthusiastic
over having saved part of his
wheat crop. It looked as if he was
not going to make any wheat after
the big freezes of last winter but
he was able to bring out enough
of the four and one-half acres he
planted in wheat to make about
fifty bushels.
Seventy years of age, Hunter
operates a three-horse farm, which
he owns. He has been running the
same farm thirty-five years. Hun
ter has twenty acres in cotton. He
said his corn, although young, is
looking fine.
To avoid mysterious dish-pan
breakage of your glassware this
summer, make a practice of tem
epring it with warm water before
plunging it into het wash-water.
This is a particularly important
step when glasses are cold from
having held icy beverages.

Leslie, enters Atheng High School
this fall.
Mr. Driver is a graduate of
Carrollton High School, Young
Harris College and the University
of Georgia, where he received his
Master’s degree in 1937. From
Hamilton, Ga., where he was prin
cipal for two years, he went to
Gainesville High School, Gaines
ville, Ga., for a ten year period,
the last eight years of which he
served as principal.
There are two children in the
Driver family, Guy, jr., age 11,
and Betty Jane, age 7; they are
all members of the Methodist
Church.
The salaries for the offices of
Supervising Principal and Princi
pal of the High School, Superin
tendent Ayers said today, have
been fixed in the budget at $6,500
and $6,400, respectively. Superin
tendent Ayers also said that as of
today the two positions will be on
a twelve months basis.
Superintendent Ayers recom
mended that Mrs. John H. Tarp
ley, sixth grade teacher at Chase
Street School during the past
thrée years, be promoted tc ele
mentary school principal, which
motion was made and passed by
the Board members. Mrs. Tarpley,
a University of Georgia graduate,
came to Athens from Buckhead,
‘}Ga., where she had been principal
of an elementary school.
A special committee reported
progress on securing the West
Broad street lot for the new Ath
ens High and Industrial School.
Action was passed to authorize the
committee to take necessary action
to close out all outstanding deals.
July sth was the date set by City
Attorney James Barrow as a pos
sible time for final dispositions to
be made.
Insurance on Buildings
Insurance renewals on school
buildings was reported upon by a
special committee which et June
20th, reappraisal of buildings
causing the old $408,000 figure to
be raised to $1,122,500. To date
this does not include coverage on
the new High School building.
Motion to accept the figure was
carried by the Board, and further
motion made by R. H. Driftmier
was approved to give the Superin
tendent power to act, in conjunc
ltiou with City Engineer J. G.
'Beacham, determining necessity
;!or a fire plug to be placed within
500 feet of the new High School
lbuilding to assure a uniform tem
t porary insurance rate.
' Mr. Driftmier stated that all
bids on the construction of the
High School gymnasium should be
rejected and returned to the bid
ders, as the plans called for con
struction costs far beyond the
amount set aside by the Board for
this purpose. Mayor Jack Wells
moved that the architect be ad
vised to draw up new plans, with
out charge, which could be effect
ed within the budgeted anmrount;
this motion was carried.
Further motion was made by
Mr. Driftmier, and approved, to

buildings. Mr. Ayers stated that
$48,000 was the approximate total
amount estimated for the equip-~
ment, and recommended that pro
ceedings for procurement be im
nl)’glgiate, while materials are avail
able,
A motion by Mr. Driftmier that
the College of Education at the
University of Georgia be appoint
ed to conduct a proposed survey of
the Athens city schools was de
bated briefly by Mr. Wells.
The Mayor pointed out that the
University is “part of the commu
nity, and perhaps too many mem
bers of the survey commission
would thus be too close to the
scene to act objectively.” He fur
ther reminded the Board members
that Peabody College made the
last such survey.
Mr, Driftnrier said it would be
“slighting the University not to
ask their assistance in the mat
ter,” and, assuring the Board that
any survey made would definitely
be objectively done in the Dbest
interests of the community and the
school system, further stated that

Foreign Needs
While acknowledging the extent
of future military aid spending
would be shaped by world events,
Marshall said in prepared testi
monty he saw no prospect now of
any reduction in foreign needs be
fore 1955.
“Thereafter, most or the Euro
pean countries should be in full
production, their initial armament
well under way, with general fi
nancial capabilities to maintain
such a level of defense, so that
their requirements for military aid
items from the U. S. can be sub
stantially reduced.”
Secretary of State Acheson had
told the committee yesterday that
he foresaw ‘“two or three years”
more of economic assistance — as
apart from arms spending — de
spite the prospective end of the
Economic Cooperation Adminis
tration (ECA) in another year.
Acheson urged continuation of
the machinery of ECA, whether
under that name or some other, to
continue the job.
