If you're planning to stay up
for next Tuesday's national
election results, with the rest
of your family, expect to be
sleepy in class the following
day. Even with computers work
ing overtime, and more vot
ing machines in use than ever
before, the outcome isn't going
to be known for hours and hours.
Have you heard what's
happening in Hartford, Con-
necticutt? City officials are
planning to build a university
education park where students
will remain on the same cam
pus from prekindergarten
througji graduate school.
If the proposal becomes a
reality, a new 1,600pupil school
wlU be built for grades 5 throu^

mentary school buildings are to
be used for prekindergarten
day-care centers and grades 1
through 4.
Included in a complex with
the University of Hartford, the
schools will give elementary
and high school students an
opportunity to attend special
programs and classes in music
and art at the adjoining col
lege.
High school students will also
have an opportunity to engage
in advanced study in the uni
versity's sceince and engineer
ing departments. Mothers and
fathers aren't being overlooked
either. Adult education courses
will be Improved and expanded.
And how about this? From
their freshman year at the uni
versity until graduation, stu
dents who plan to teach and are
education majors will work with
Hartford public school children.
It sounds practical, and can't
you just see whole families
rushing off to school together In
the morning? How will con
struction of the complex be fin
anced? Citizens of Hartford are
being asked to vote for a $20
million bond issue.
There's just one thing
wrong. Any New Bern High
school student knows that not
just going to college, but going
off to college, is what they look
forward to.

area. Green is from SL David, Arizona.
Ing kind, and wanderlust was
deeply imbedded in his heart.
It was inevitable that he would
become a racer, and few men
of his time won more trotting
events at more state and county
fairs throughout America.
Not only was he master of the
reins on a fast dirt track, but
an expert trainer whose ser
vices were much in demand.
There was just something a lit
tle bit better, they used to say,
about a steed that Fred develo
ped. He had the knack of turn
ing an ordinary nag into a
champion.
Now with Daisy gone, the
Swerts belong completely to
the past, but we soon forget the
little girl who wanted so much
to be St. Paul's organist, and
had her dream come true, and
remain true for 61 years.

Try Parsley for
Next Garnishing
If you're looking for a deco
rative and edible food garnish,
then parsley is what you're
looking for. Par sley al so ranks
very high among vegetables in
vitamin A content, says the U.
S. Department of Agriculture's
Consumer and Marketing Ser
vice.
In addition to being a much
sou^t-after garnish, this veg
etable can add some nutritive
value to the diet. Available the
year round, fresh parsley has
crisp, bright green leaves for
both the curled-leaf and flat-
leaf types.
Slightly wilted leaves can be
freshened by placing them in
cold water, after trimming off
the ends of the -stem s.
