SEWING CLASS The response to the other adult classes has been terrific this year, Mrs. Ekins reports. At the present time eight sewing classes are being taught by Mrs. Elva Skeem and Mrs. Glenda Roundy. Two in Delta on Monday nights, a class in Des-eret Des-eret and Oak City on Thursday afternoon and Thursday evening in Hinckley, Wednesday evening in Lynndyl and two classes in Leamington Leam-ington one in the afternoon with Mrs. Roundy instructing and one in me evening under Mrs. Skeem.

"r" Philosophy Class About three weeks ago Mrs. Inez Riding called to request a class in Philosophy, since that time Mrs. Ekins contacted Brent C Dixon, Program Developer at the Exten sion Services at BYU, and requested a teacher from the college to come to Delta to teach a class in Philo sophy. Mr. Dixon made arrangements arrange-ments for Dr. David H. Yarn, Jr. to jtr ' '. ' I Cultural Arts Concoct Aims At the High School there has been some talk about providing for the cultural arts in our rural area. It is felt that our students are missing miss-ing much along these lines. A new group is being organized at DHS under the name of "The Little Theater Group" at the present pre-sent time but probably would be better called the "Cultural .Arts." The purpose of this organization would be to promote the cultural arts in the school and community. This would be elevating to the school and the community as a whole. One way that we are planning to do this Is by starting a good cultural exchange through which we can bring in ou. standing music from the college level (chorus, opera, op-era, instrumental) or a drama production pro-duction (plays, readings, etc.) from our near by colleges. This would add to the students' knowledge of the fine arts and would bring more cul.ure to the community. This "Little Theater Group" would be available for participation participa-tion in school assemblies, presenting present-ing such things as dramatic readings, read-ings, humorous readings, pantomimes, panto-mimes, short plays, instrumental, brass, choir, flute trio, quartets, and solos. This would give an opportunity op-portunity to many students in the school, not only the musically in clined but also the dramatics minded. The main purpose of this group would be to plan ahead and promote pro-mote this type of cultural exchange to give studenls opportunities by presenting several programs a year. REED LYNN TURNER P-TA Study Group Class "What Job For You?" is the question being posed by sophomore sopho-more students and their parents at Delta High School. "It is a question we urge these students to ask themselves. Parents Par-ents are included in this vital phase of planning and we solicit their help in encouraging teens to begin formulating plans for their future," said Jack Fowles counselor. Students are being shown film strips such as "You and Your Job,-' "We All Have a Job To Do," and "What Job For You?" A discussion period, led toy Mr. Fowles, follows. The procedure is repeated on Monday Mon-day evenings at 7:30 p-m. in the library for the parents. Millard County has no industry to provide jotos for graduates. They leave the area for employment. This is a problem which must be solved, according to Mr. Fowles. The Delta High School PTA under und-er the direction of Mrs. Harriet E-liason, E-liason, president, is sponsoring the adult class as their study group class this year and encourage the support of all paren'.s of sophomore students. There is no fee for the course which is scheduled to run for six more weeks. Know the Facts Of Government, Says Sen. Moss WASHINGTON Sen Frank E. Moss, D-Utah, has joined in Senate sponsorship of legislation which would help guarantee the people's right to know the fac'.s of their Government. Under the legislation a Federal public records iaw would be established which would also permit court enforcement of free dom of Information for the public. The public records section would require every agency of the Federal Government to make ail its records promptly available to any person.

However, the enrollment of the class has to be 20 students, Mrs. Ekins has 15 that have re quested the class but nine of that number want a graduate course. (380 is an undergraduate course.) Miss Esla Enid Stopp of Callao read about the class in the Mil lard County Chronicle and wroce Mrs. Ekins she would like to take it and then Monday night she came into Delta High School to register for the class. She traveled a distance of 90 miles and said uhe would be wiling to come that far to take the class if we had enough to have it. Miss Stopp is the daugh ter of a school teacher and said she thought she could influence a carload to come with her. .Plait Ve have a good variety of all SPRIIIG SEEDS MORRISOli and COMPANY DELTA, UTAH ID.

How much time should be spent at home doing school work? Do some teachers re quire more than their share of the student's time. No one seriously questions the value of homework, especially when we see so much new knowledge know-ledge being placed before us each day. There is never time to read all the worthwhile books and magazines mag-azines on the market. . But let's look at homework to see if we can take the drudgery out of it. In the first place homework should never be assigned on the basis of a negative psychology, not because parents require it as a means of occupying their child's time each evening. It seems to me this defies our youth, the value of family life, community activities, and takes away freedom for reflective reflec-tive thinking. Homework can develop indepen dent study when properly motivated; motivat-ed; it should be an enriching experience. ex-perience. It should encourage the s.udent to read beyond the regular course requirements. Therefore, homes should be equipped with reference re-ference material and a quiet place to study, or libraries should be made available in the evenings. Students should feel the joy of learning new facts on 'heir own; dig into new areas of thougni. j- cause they themselves want to know. How else can they really learn to think. I resent, as I'm sure most people do, having to get an assignment just because some one told me I had to. Proper motivation is important, and this seldom comes on our own inititative. We must be stimulated to want to know. When this happens the problem of how much time should we require re-quire is eliminated and we work for hours and come out refreshed because we have the joy of accomplishment. accom-plishment. sure under the law. These areas range over defense and foreign policy secrets, information informa-tion specifically protected under other laws, trade secrets and investigatory in-vestigatory files used in law enforcement. en-forcement. The proposed Federal public records re-cords law would permit individuals seeking information to file suit in a U. S. District Court which would have authority to order production of improperly withheld records. The Court is granted power to pun ish agency officials with contempt proceedings for failure to comply Senator Moss said the legislation was developed after extensive public pub-lic hearings, and has. gained wide support from news media.
