They represent the cream of the nation and will rule it after Castro has fallen, James , Nathan Miller writes in the December Readers Digest. So far, 162,000 Cubans have surrendered all their possessions for a trip to freedom in the U.S. Miller writes in his article, "Op-portunity or Disaster the Che-leri- g of Cuba's Exiles." Among them . are thousands of once-- I wealthy educated people who want to work and no sympathy: former doctors, lawyers, busi-ness- e executives are driving cabs and shining shoes and waiting on restaurant tables in Miami. . 'Although the influx has in-creased the city's population by a third, and strained facilities to the utmost, it has been accom-panied by little strife. Miami's crime rate went down by 16 per cent last year, and the police chief commented, "These Cubans haven't given us what you'd con-sider a fair share of crime.'" Other communities and must try to take up some of Miami's burden. Jobs are needed in all categories but domestic help. This is the cate-gory in which requests have been heaviest, but it is the one kind of work the Cubans are least qualified to perform. The federal government will pay to transport Cubans from Miami to wherever there is someone to sponsor them; it will also guar-antee their transportation back to Cuba when they are free to go. It will pay whatever local relief costs are necessary if the resettlement proves unsuccess-ful. Local groups who would like to sponsor Cubans in this area may write to Deputy Director for Resettlement, Cuban Refu-gee Center, Freedom Tower in Miami, Fla. Elementary Teacher May Be Whiz at Mechanical Things It's getting so the elementary teacher has to be an amateur en-gineer these days. It hasn't quite yet reached the point where engineering courses are ! required of her, but with all the mechanical and electronic classroom tools she's responsible for" it may come to that soon. In fact, she might even be able to advise you on the va-garies of your home movie pro-jector when you visit school. For, besides film projectors, the teacher also runs and occa-sionally gives first aid to pho-nographs, radios, TV sets, tape recorders and even teaching machines, in some places. Says an expert on technology in the classrooms, the schools need even more of these items. Dr. James D. Finn, profes-sor of education at the Univer-sity of Southern California and director of the Technological Development Project of the Na-- , tional Education Association, says the schools need more of the new tools to teach more of the children more things better and faster. Up to now he says, the schools have invested about $272 mil-lion in classroom technological aids. Some $35 million of that was added in the last school year alone. More and more is needed, he warns, or American schools won't be able to live up to their potential. Educational TV stations are worthless to the schools, he says, unless the schools have TV sets. Films and film strips are useless without film projectors to show them. Good foreign language teaching requires language lab-oratories containing enough tape recorders for students to work with. So many students are enter-ing the public schools that the schools have to run faster and faster in order to merely stand still. More teachers, alone, can't help, he says, for new teachers are being overwhelmed by the wave of students, longer school years, and the growing length of the average student's stay in the school. That's where technology comes in by helping, provide more and better learning in less time. Right along with technological aids in the classroom will prob-ably be the teacher, textbook in one hand, screwdriver in the other. ; i " J STRA'GHT KENTUCKY BOURBON WHISKY 86 PROOF ANCIENT AGE DISTILLING CO., FRANKFORT.

How can you help someone who seems to be having a heart attack if you are the only other person on hand? The first and most important thing to do in case of heart at-tack is to call a doctor at once, says the Utah Heart Assn. You should also help the pa-tient take a position most com-fortable for him (usually half way between lying and sitting), loosen tight clothing and see that he does not become chilled. Do not attempt to carry or lift him or give him anything to drink without the doctor's ad- - dice. In a leaflet entitled "Heart Attack," the symptoms of heart attacks are listed and an expla-nation given of how atheroscler-osis, the condition responsible for most heart attacks, develops. The leaflet also ! describes the chest pain known as angina pec-toris. Three out of four heart attack victims are able to lead useful, productive lives once they have recovered. The Association ad-vises them to: 1. Keep weight down. 2. Eat four small meals daily. 3. Get plenty of rest and take moderate exercise. 4. Avoid over-exertio- n and ( over excitement. |
