By SUE WATKINS You can keep up with the cast of four at Ada and Howard home, but a printed program would be helpful when it comes to charting the action and location for this versatile family who live 322 Meadowhill, just off Rd.

Dr. Ada Smith has helped open all three suburban campuses of the Dallas Community College system. She teaches psychology at Eastfield this term, and in the fall will move to her office at Richland where she will be a regular staff member. She joined the system after earning her doctor of philosophy degree in psychology at the University of Texas in Austin. Howard is teaching sociology at East Texas State while compiling a questionnaire to be used in connection with the federal CooFer Dam project.

The work may be a prototype for future sociological studies in watershed areas, according to his wife. He is working on his PhD at North Texas State. Except for the one class her private counseling practice, Ada is keeping a schedule much like other men. She is driving David, an all-star T-shirt baseball player, to practices and games. She is driving tenth- grader Donna to afternoon driver education classes.

And, in between, she is helping Howard convert the garage into a game room. we go we do something to our living she says. Their entry hall is flanked by an office for her and one for Howard in rooms ordinarily used for a living area and dining room. Book shelves are covering the walls, as fast as the scholar- father has time to build them. Adept at time-saving, Ada shops for groceries almost a year at a time (supplemented by two-week shopping for perishables) and for clothing by the season.

do have to take the children back for shoes as they wear them out or lose she says. She learned to shop in quantities when she and Howard were sent to Nigeria and Ghana in 1957 by the Baptist Foreign Mission Board. He operated a print shop, and she taught at Sadler Baptist College. The areas are in an English speaking part of Africa, although Donna learned Yoruba dialect before English. a ship came in, we loaded up on supplies.

We used canned meat from she says, recalling with pleasure some of the good Dutch products they had. Both Ada and her husband have amassed an astonishing list of abilities, mostly by necessity. As weli as being carpenters and teachers, they both hold bachelor of divinity degrees from Southwestern Baptist Seminary where they met. She also gained a master of religious education degree there, and two weeks later gave birth to Donna. Then on to Africa where they became familiar with the matriarchal Twi and Ashanti tribes and patriarchal Nigerians.

Ada also learned some of the native superstitions such as carrying the red tailfeath- ers of parrots or monkey skulls in times of stress. She noted exam time was especially stressful since students were expected to answer questions based on six years of advanced learning. The family then including back to the states just before Kwame Nkrumah was dethroned. Unable to return to that mission field, the couple elected to stay in Texas where he took a church in Llano and she became counselor for the Llano school district, at the same time beginning her PhD. Howard also worked with state vocational rehabilitation.

When she finished her degree in 1970, the family moved to Garland. Howrd owned a cleaning establishment in Dallas, and Ada began helping open Mountain View College then Eastfield and Richland. Her first love is teaching, she says, so the post at Richland is welcome. She is serving as first vice president of the Texas Junior College Teachers Assn. Sandwiched in her busy life, she has also been in training, attended the University of Houston, and back in 1954 remembers coming to Garland and Mesquite as an working with the Baptist summer Bible school programs.
