Cute-hall, said Thursday the last of this year's federally financed projects is scheduled to end Aug. 25. "The new Title 1 application for funds for the fiscal 1968 program will be submitted next Tuesday," Cutchall said.

Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Jducation Act of 19(15 (ESEA) provides federal funds for children from low-income families and educationally deprived children. This year's projects funded under Title I were five readiness centers for 97 pre-school- childrcn, an expanded program in reading and niathmatics, a a enrichment a and expanded guidance and ad- i i a i services, Cutchall explained. $78,992 was allocated to finance the four projects in the district. The readiness centers were designed to furnish special education to prc-school children who might, without the program, fail in first grade. "The expanded program in reading dealt with in-service training for teacher- and paid the salary of a director of reading who did research to establish a reading program for ed- ucalioniUJy deprived children," Cutchall said.

Dr. David Colin, a and science for Olivetti- Underwood Corporation, developed a program for lo achiev- ers in math on the junior high level at East Junior High. "The students used an electric calculator to check their homework papers and clipped the calculator tapes lo the papers when they handed their work in. Through the use of a calculator, we were able to show a low-achiever in math that he can get the right answer," Cutchall contir d. The cultural enrichment program included 5Vi days at Camp Comet, near here.

142 children between the ages of 6 and 17 participated in the camp-out. Activities included swimming, hiking, camping, crafts, and cook-outs. The district also purchased tickets for qualified children to see "Toby Tyler" and "Alladin and His Magic Lamp," productions of the Tadpole Players, a dramatic troupe. "A home and school visitor was hired to work with the children and their families, and a senior high school guidance coun selor, to work with deprived students to insure job skill and job placement, was hired with Title I funds," Cutchall said. An additional was appropriated for the district under an amendment of Title I which finances programs for children in institutions.

The district's program at Quincy Orphanage began in June and will continue through Aug. 25. according to Cutchall. "The Quincy students were surveyed and a study was made of their school records lo determine their educational needs. The project includes tutoring, cultural trips, and special classes in hygiene and etiquette, sewing and small engine assembly and operation," Culchall noted.

Accredited teachers and college students tutored the Quincy students in business a arithmetic, algebra, reading, English, spelling, science, biology, history, and social studies. "Cultural trips were taken in the afternoons to such places as Cowans a Caledonia State Park, Greenbrier Md. State Park. Crystal Grottoes in Boonsboro, Fantasyland in Gettysburg, and Totem Pole Playhouse." Culchall said. In addition, the students went on Wednesday all day trips to Hershey, Gettysburg, Washington, B.C., and Baltimore, Md.

The last day trip, scheduled for Wednesday, will be to Cunningham Falls (Md.) State Park. Title II of ESEA provides funds for school library resources, textbooks, and other instructional materials. The district's allocation for the 19GG-67 school term was 39,210 of which was spent for library and $1,600 for textbooks. This coming school year's Title II allocation of $9,006 was approved June 1. Cutchall said.

Part of the Title II funds are i a i a library at Hooverville Elementary School. "The library is a centralized elementary library for the district. Since Hooverville is the largest elementary school in the district, we decided to serve the largest group first. "We are starting with one good library and hope gradaully to establish libraries at all the elementary schools," Cutchall said. "The district participated in the ESEA program during the summer of 1906.

and during the 19(j(i-G7 school year, and will apply for funds for the coming year" Cutchall said. Cutchall said he hopes to get funds for the district's retarded children in special classes in the future. "These are the children who should receive greater attention because they have less with which to work than other children." he said.

Police said Thomas surprised the group and called police. Reportedly nothing was taken. Colcman was charged before Justice of the Peace Allan E. Jennings. The juveniles are in custody at the county juvenile detention quarters.

They want to reduce the of i or courts in Pennsylvania to 850, place puslices on salaries of $10,000 and give them clerical help. Stabilizing Influence What the magistrates arc battling, of course, is the desire of some lawyers lo eliminate laymen from the bench. This would create vast new job opportunities in which fledgling lawyers could apply their wisdom.

But, said Pearlsline, "Since the magistrate is the local link in the chain of justice, he acts as a i ence upon the actions of the community Settling disputes before they reach the stage of law suits, patching up marriages about to come apart at the seams, straightening out young people before they got into serious trouble, are activities only partly legal in nature." The JP system, he argues, "goes a long way towards toeing a justice is not long delayed," and it prevents Common Pleas courts "from AT I left to right, were Mrs. Robert Hoover, Mary Binkley, Mrs. Jacob Bemisderfer, William 0.
