WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY ID, 19W VOLUME 0—NUMBER IS OBSERVATIONS J^L I waa asked recently what effect the (Eisenhower School Aid program would] hare on Rapper hannock? The way I look at the program it will not affect the school situation] locally, for it is not a gift. The program states that it will mieke. possible lowinterest rate bonds 'to localities that need schools. Past experience has proven that a few die-hard taxpayers are not willing to pay from $20 to MO more per year in taxes to make possible the future generation will have a better school opportunity. Until we, the citisens of Rappahannock, realise that we must keep up with the trend of times we will not be able, to get competent teachers, or keep them here for Uiore than a year. I recently visited the high school and observed the confusion in the auditorium during physical education period, with at least fifty students in this room, surrounded by four classrooms—three primary grades, and the (high school business class. It is Impossible for any teacher to conduct a class with aU this activity going on just beyond a thin wall. Why not visit the high school Iron are maintaining and sending (your child to, and see tiie conditions under which they are laboring. Counties in Virginia, according to a Mineral Resources Circular #1 Virginia Division of Geology. No one answered this question. For a. year’s free subscription to the Rappahannock News, be the first to answer this query: "What famous refugee from Germany arrived in die (United States in i 1933, and settled in New Jersey to begin his climb towards fame President Eisenhower, in his message to the Boy Scouts of America, as their Honorary President, said, "self-development and service to others, independence and good qualities 'which Scouting fosters mean muni to America." The Chief Executive’s message to the 3,660,000' members of the organization was1 sent in honor of Boy Scout Week, Feb. 6 to 12, marking die 45tjb anniversary of its founding in the United States. THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON To the Boy Scout* of America; Boy Scout Week gives all of us an opportunity to honor the -two million, seven hundred and sixtyfive thousand boy* and their nearly .. one million leaders who make up this great organization. - Selfdevelopment and service to others, independence and' good citizenship, a sense of brotherhood and responsiveness to spiritual values—these qualities which Scouting fosters mean much to America. To all Boy Scouts I extend congratula* tions on what they are achieving and on what they promise for our nation’s future, ! (signed) Dwight D. Eisenhower * ' V ' ' 1 - ■ . !r , Movies On Work Of American Red, Cross Shown In County “Red Cross Facts” were presented to a number of interested persons meeting in the courthouse Tuesday night at 8 o’clock. Three free movies gave the viewers a . clear picture of Red Cross’ work' at home and abroad, in peace and in war. Their work with die soldier was. exemplified in a movie showing how the Red Cross put a soldier’s, mind at ease after he had read of a tornado playing havoc with his home town. Through 'the Red Cross the youth found out that his family was safe. The other two movie* showed how the Red Cross conducted its Bloodmohile Program, its Swimming and Lifesaving Programs, Disaster Program and “Gray , Lady” program in the hospitals. ; Following these movies, the * meeting was open for questions' that may have arisen concerning die work of the Red Cross. Mrs. Elen Martin, Area supervisor,' present at the meeting, answered clearly the numerous questions asked by die audience. Various “selling cigarettes” type stories were aired and explained. It was repeatly stated that “Assistance given to the Armed Forces is provided for by voluntary contributions from the American people*—Red Cross Services and supplies for members qf the armed forces are • not sold.” Monday, February * 21 . chosen as a meeting date for die fund campaign workers. This meeting, according to Fund Chairman, Mrs. Downing Wood, will be held at 2 o’clock in the Town Hall jn Washington. Father Lends Heart . To Daughter During ; Dramatic Operation An example of a dramatic heart operation, with a father “lending" his heart and lungs to his daughter as surgeons repaired the gaping hole in the wall separating the pumping chambers of her heart, was related today by Dr. R. Bryan Grinnan, Jr., President of Virginia Heart Association. Partners in this history-making heart operation which was performed in Minneapolis were Ronald Schmidt and' five-year-old Pamela Schmidt of Minneapolis. Before the operation, Pamela seemed doomed to a life of invalidism or possible death at an early age. She had spent 10 months in an oxygen tent. Today, she*is given as good a chance as any youngster for a normal, healthy life. ■ The story bt rameia is tnc suny of medical science’s newest accomplishment—“controlled cross circulation”—a revolutionary pro- - cedure introduced into surgery at the University of Minnesota Medical School after several years of intensive research. This research was aided hy the Heart Fund. In the operation, the blood circulatory systems of Pamela and her father, whp was anesthetized on a nearby operating table, became one circulatory system. They were linked by thin plastic tubes passing through a mechanical pump. With Pamela’s heart isolated and her lungs collapsed, the , pump fed into her circulatory system bright red, oxygenated blood Sw HEART—P««« S Last Rites Held For Mrs. EL W. Brown ) Mrs. Elizabeth Eastham Brown, wife of Dr. Edward W. Brown, deceased, a practicing physician in the county for 60 years, died Sunday, February 6th, at her home in Washington.

At the age of maturity of her children, Mrs. Eastham returned to Texas with her family. Soon afterwards E. W» Brown was married to Miss Elizabeth Eastham. They made their hame in Washington and lived there through the years until their death at elderly ages. Mrs. Brown was much admired for asserted independence of living and true home hospitality.

PANTHERS—ROCKETS SHARE VICTORIES Two well matched teams met in spirited contests on the Spreryville basketball court Monday night, with the Rockets claiming one victory, and the Pantherettes the ! other. , The Rocket girls bowed to the Pantherettes with a score of 44-43, giving the R.
