In the last few years the Vice President has worked quietly and steadily in behalf of Negro rights and this also may be a factor in the . Southern attitude. Something else' should be noted about the public's attitude toward the Vice President. It is that his opponents are more intense in their opposition than his supporters are in their support. Whileyonly 10 per cent of the public think he would make an excellent President, 16 per cent are convinced that the country from Nixwould actually - su-fon's leadership.

Today's winner is: Kathy Domijan, 10,. Meriden, Win Conn. Since the days back in 1877 when Thomas . Edison made the firjst sound recording, so many great improvements have been made that it's almost impossible to keep up with them. Today especially, the whole science of sound recording and reproduction is moving ahead very rapidly, and all of us are enjoying the bene-fits of these advances, Tape recording is one of the greatest developments in this field. What most people don't know is that it plays an important part in the making of. records. In making records, the original sound is, picked up by one or, more microphones. It is recorded on a special kind of tape called magnetic tape. What happens is that sound is changed into elec- trical signals which cause particles in the tape to be magnetized in a special way. When the tape is played, those magnetized particles give off the same 'electrical signal which are then converted into sound. Magnetic tape isSised in making records because it can be edited. This means it can be cut apart and recomibined, so that parts can be left out, new parts can be put in place of old, and so ; , - r The sound from the tape is fed to a disk cutter, which cuts' grooves in a smooth lacquer disk. From this disk, master records are made, and these masters are later used to press records. Pres--X tzxm tzA steem' heet urn ism4 la . j ; f . FUN TIME The Chuckle Box Sure:,.

The development jof this kind, of tape was a long process. $t first spools of wire wera used, and later tape was' male of solid metal. But the results were only fair. When the Allies invaded Germany during World War II, they found that tape recorders of very good quality were being used In broadcasting stations. The, secret was that tape made of plastic wis being used. Once we found out how to use plastic for making tape recordings, many advances ' were quickly made. .
