Cheltenham that opened Oct. 28, is the first of 340 such centers planned for the next three years, to stretch across the United States. The basic principle behind the centers is that a child naturally learns best through discovery. In the center three-to-six year olds find themselves through a rich variety of "discoveries." They sec. touch and do.

After awhile an individual picture emerges, telling where each child stands in regard to 35 basic groupings of mental, physical, and social skills. These skills, educators believe, are essential to a solid foundation for later learning. The Discovery Center program has been developed by Universal Education Corporation after three years of testing and research, at a cost of million. Parents are involved in the program, as they are in Head Start, and others. Universal Education Corp.

staff, of 100 psychologists, educators, systems analysts, is at work in Washington D. C. at present, to gain funding to bring the program to lower socio-economic groups.

Fascinating, says sixth grader, of artificial fish breeding By Reldalee Wagner The Lamar Fish Hatchery is a place where fish are raised and shipped to other places. Some of the ponds around here are stocked with fish this hatchery raised. Also fish are selected for artificial reproduction.

AH people should see this process, that insures new fish life for ponds, rivers and creeks. The fish are kept in long tanks outside the buildings. The female fish identified from the male by a rounded head, are kept apart in the artificial reproduction tank, from the male, who is identified by a pointed head and a jutting lower lip that tends to make it look fierce. In other tanks, baby fish 192 on honor rolls at Lock Haven High PUPILS SEE FIRE ENGINE IN USE Miles Schroder of the Nittany Valley Volunteer Fire Co. demonstrates the use of fire fighting equipment to Porter Township Elementary pupils of the second grade, taught by Mrs.

are kept, and in still others, fish waiting to stock streams wait. Artificial reproduction is a process of fertilization that takes place in one tank. The day our sixth grade class from Dickey Elementary School visited the hatchery, Don Toney and Bob Corvin were at work on the process. This is the way it is done: The men work in a hole that separates the males from the females. Any females who look like their eggs are ripe will be tested.

These first will be placed in a trough containing a solution of anesthetic so they won't be hurt or jump about. Those whose eggs are ready will be milked of their eggs. The men get the eggs out of the fish by squeezing the fish gently and running the hand that's squeezing down the fish's body gently until the eggs come out. Female brook trout lay 4,500 eggs in the season they are three years old. The female may spawn from two years of age till death at 10-15 years.

Most of the milked eggs are put into a pail to be fertilized, but some are not accepted. If they are over-ripe, they are thrown out. Then the males are put in anesthetic, also. Male fish are milked for their sperm in the same way females are milked for their eggs. The sperm is mixed in with the eggs in water, for the sperm doesn't become active until in water.

A cover is quickly put over the container, for the eggs must remain their natural temperature. Sunlight also contains ultra-violet rays that kill the eggs and must be avoided. Now the fish are ready hatch. The eggs are taken to another station where they will wait to hatch. They will wait in jars until signs of life appear.

Their next place of waiting is on a tray in shallow water. When the eggs hatch completely, they're moved to a trough of deeper water, and even later, into a long tank outside. There is a new way of shipping fish at the hatchery. The baby fish are put in a tube of water. There are to be 750 baby fish in each package and 750 baby fish displace a certain amount of water in each tube.

That's how they know when exactly 750 fish are in the tube. The fish are put in a plastic bag filled with a special fluid made to keep bacteria away and also to keep chemical ac-; tion out of the water. Oxygen; is added. The bags are sealed; tightly, put in a box and mailed to the location. Bob Shaver and Gary Tries have this job of packing.

These, fish will live 48 hours in the; package. They used to be ped on trucks in tanks. is the new, modern way pack. The hatchery is a fascinating place to visit. Tours are available.
