Again, more greetings by more Jaycees! We were certainly made to attractive wife told of the European travels as part of the official mission of the newspaper colony. Many beautiful colored slides were shown of Sweden, Norway, Russia, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Germany and Switzerland. The entire talk was very interesting.

ADULT HIGH SCHOOL CLASSES TO BE HELD IN JANUARY Beginning Tuesday. January 13, at English Sterling high school, adult classes will get under way in Government Economics and Socialogy. Several adults irom Huntingburg have been attending the classes which give credits toward a high school diploma." The new will be at 6:30 on our mission, but here in Edinburgh the Jaycee welcome was most cordial and most personal. After learning What our chief occupations were, they invited us to visit Scottish homes to spend an evening. I w'ent to Banker Ian home as did Bob Buckley, our state Jaycee president and his wife, Katy.

The remaining members of our group were entertained by other families with various professions equivalent to their American We were delighted to receive such a warm welcome and were able to get a. much better picture of Europeans than we could from books. Everyone was amazed at the interest shown in the then forthcoming American election, especially at the questions of the children a fact that was to amaze us even more as time went on. The two Hutchon children were permitted to stay up that night (unusually late for them) until we arrived shortly before 9:00 p.m. so their could sign their memory books.

Asked why everyone in English-speaking countries goes to bed immediately after supper, as we had observed. Mr. Hutchon said, "Anyone with sense goes to bed at There was a rustle in the bedroom about a half-hour after they departed and shortly the mother presented little nine-year-old Sandy who just could not go to sleep until he showed his father where newly-discovered was on his world globe. We had such a delightful time at the house that time slipped by fast and when we returned to the hotel we found the front door locked! We had to request entrance via a special nite bell. We were told that all hotel doors on used daily to ring out the high noon hour with a twelve-shot salute.

When the Scotsmen had the cannon returned, they decided to keep up the tradition. But being as they are. the thunderously-noisy cannon can now be heard all over the city, not at 12 but at 1:00 p.m. a savings of eleven cannon balls per day. Our next flight, the sixth in two days, was a pleasant flight on a British European Airways Viscount plane.

Since it was tea time, we naturally had tea and crumpets and had great fun with a couple of lads who were on their way to naval training. In London for three days we were kept busy sightseeing and there was a lot more history to digest. Since we were free the first evening, many of us took in the London theatre and three of us saw Flower Drum The London stage seems to have anything but a Britisher on it. It was a beautiful musical that we saw, and well done; while others in our group saw something else and one member attended the London Symphony which was also attended by Mr. and Mrs.

Anthony Armstrong-Jones. Incidentally. Princess Maigaret lives in Kensington Palace which was just across the street from our hotel, the Milestone. Also included in the Itinerary of our London tour was the impressive changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace; St. James Palace; the Houses of Parliament; Big Ben; and tours through Westminister Abbey, St.

Cathedral, the Tower of London and London Bridge. On the final day we had a tour through Windsor Castle, Eton College and Hampton court and gardens. Some of us also took in Madame Tussauds wax museum on one of our free mornings in London. Here the likeness of all the in the world, including American presidents and European queens, can be found in a most realistic fashion and setting. Among the array of famous we saw Sleeping Beauty actually breathing witfo the help of a mechanical apparatus in her costume.

Throughout the. trip we were no doubt credited with several Weather-wise, we scored a first when for the first time in the memory of our guide, it did not rain for three straight days in London. We were there these three days. Another pddity. and a rather nice one, is that in Europe there are no commercials on television.

There is a sort of pay-as-you-watch or buy deal. This limits the usage of TV and because of this we find the answer to the most important question on mind on November 8th until the papers came out the following day. Because of our global position, we were six hours ahead of American time and the first official results of the election did not come in until about noon. The afternoon papers all carried such headlines as "COCK-A-HOOP which loosely translated meant that Kennedy was "King of the Everyone in Europe seemed to be for Mr. Kennedy for one of three reasons which they did not freely admit but was.

upon investigation, obvious to the writer. They were for Kennedy either because he was a Catholic, the underdog, or because they enjoyed the overseas spending policies of his party. I personally appreciated the picture we got from them on the American election. Here the people take politics mere seriously and they seem to gain more from the mechanics of our election than we do. It seems they have that for attitude Americans have about the privilege of voting.

Monday; Our itinerary takes us to Holland where I visit with the girl who looked after my grave there and to Belgium.) More than 800.000 rounds of shells have fallen on Kinmen in two years, but the farmers stay with their tasks, raising cabbage, beans and other foods. until 9:30 p.m. at English, and will the continent are locked at midnight include history and possibly other courses.

This night was the first we were to spend in Europe and oddly enough the coldest one too. It was just above the freezing mark and in Scotland as in the remainder of England there is no central heating. We had a small electric wall heater which doing the job. Investigation showed that behind the closed drapes the windows were wide open.

This was our first encounter with the love for fresh air! The next morning we took a tour through the city of Edinburgh which included a tour to the castle and the Royal Mile to the Palace of Holyrood House where Queen Elizabeth stays on her visits to Scotland. The explanation of the struggle to exist in ancient times impressed us very much. It seems that if you committed a crime, no matter how minor, you were drawn and unless were of royal blood which spared you a public death, and you were entitled to be beheaded privately. At Edinburgh Castle we saw the famous which has been in use daily for more than four hundred years. The cannon used to ring out salutes to the Queen when Scotland was the royal residence and was moved to London when she took up residence there.
