Fast go the racing cars. Flag goes down, Around and around Fast go the racing cars. Wheels bumping, Motors humming, Brakes squakipg. Fast go the racing cars! Book Ratings After Mrs. John F. Kennedy’s television tour of the White House several weeks ago, we feel this review by Lu Ann Longenbaugh would be appropriate: “My 21 Years in the White House,” by Alonzo Fields. The last to be written by a White House employee, this book reveals an inside view in the private lives of three of our more recent Presidents and some interesting anecdotes about other world figures.”—Al Bauer. Band News The Syracuse high school band is scheduled to participate in the

district band contest at Goshen on Saturday at 2 p. m. • The band is preparing three numbers for the contest. “Burst of Trumpets” is a march by Harold L. Walters. An overture, “Dorian,” by Maurice C. Whitney, challenges the band with its unusual expressiveness. The final number consists of highlights from “The King and I.”—Vicki Cecil. Senior News One of the biggest problems of our seniors is deciding what to do after graduation. For those who plan to go on to college, there is always the question of where to go. Three seniors tried to solve this problem last week end. Shel Miller, Jody Wilson, and Barb Zally visited Butler university and Indiana university. Well, girls, have you made up your minds? Some of the senior men also had a good week end. Five senior members of the basketball team saw the state finals at Butler university in Indianapolis. The five who went are Steve Williams, John Lantz, Ron Scarbeary, Francis Denton, and Jim Felts. Guess what? Only 52 days left until the senior trip. Is anybody packing yet?—Gladys Glupp. Shamrock Hop You probably felt like an Irishman . with a broken shillelagh when your friends told you about the fun they had at the juniorsponsored Shamrock Hop last Friday. The highlight of the evening was the debut of the high school dance band on the stage of the shamrock-decorated gym. They should be commended on their outstanding performances.—Jim Stefanski.

Sara-Cuse 'Says' By Ardis Larson

‘PEACE RULES the day when Christ rules the mind,” says the Wawasee Lakeside Chapel bulletin. ‘IDES OF March,” we found in the Chicago Daily Tribune, borrowed from Miss Ida Deardorff. We noted that it stemmed in cobbled named Nathaniel March in 1784. He advertised, “Boots made of the finest leopard hides brot furth from darkest Africa.” However, the hides were actually linen strips dipped in tar solution and molded on forms. They were okay until spring brought melting of the solution which stopped the people in their tracks by goo flowing from their boots. Much later they found humor in the happening and would advise of any bargain-priced item, “Beware the Ides of March.” The ‘ldes’ were said to stem from ‘hides.’ BOSSIE’S DEFEAT of Madison on Saturday was no doubt assisted by the rooting of four rooters from Syracuse: Bill Jones, Mrs. Bob McClintic, Mrs. Ray Campbell and son Bob who attended. We haven’t heard as of Monday if they have come to earth yet. NOBLE BLOCKER’S campaign success for county auditor should be assured as he now has a gifted good luck elephant. It is a handsome animal, even though a figurine, and had traveled from Germany at the behest of a warmhearted gal, Rosina Baumgartner, owner of Rose Jewelry. We saw Mr. Blocker shortly after receiving his gift . . . and with all that vim and vigor, how can he help but be auditor. We’ll all have to help him, won’t we? WSCS MEETING of the Methodist church we attended recently and was very glad we did , for we do not recall ever hearing a better speaker than Mrs. J. N. Rodeheaver.

, Her subject was “A Traveler in thyftoly Land” and was most interesting. Mrs. Rodeheaver knew her subject thoroughly, needed no notes and gave locations, names and occupations. Whoever she was telling of she made one “see” and “hear” the person. We just hope we can hear her on most any subject sometime agaiij. Following the talk the guests were invited below where Mrs. W. T. Jones poured at the head of a beautifully appointed /table, bountifully provided with refreshments. It looked like a page out of the magazine “House Beautiful.” ‘AUNT NELLIE’ Insley had a nice birthday celebration on her 82nd birthday on Valentine’s Day. She had suffered a fall recently and was taken to the Tutchinson Nursing Home. Mrs. Insley would enjoy hearing from friends. ESTELLE SWARTZ we were glad to see recently uptown after a siege of illness. JAMES L. CAMPANA, 17, a student of Our Lady of the Lake Seminary, is the winner of an essay contest sponsored by the Commission for the Handicapped of the State Board of Health. His essay will be in a national contest sponsored by the President’s Committee on Employment of the Handicapped. THE NEW telephone book isn’t it attractive in its gold and tan colors? And is surely going to be treated more carefully this time. BUILDING HOME IN NEW MILFORD ADDITION Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Gerencser are building a new home just east of the Lamar Rarig residence on the Syracuse- Milford road.
