STAR PROBLEM
MAYSVILLE, Ky. <2P)—Young
David DeLisle, noticing a stax-like
design before the serial number on
a dollar bill, wrote the U. S. Secret
Service for an explanation.
Back came a letter from U. E.
Baughman, chief of the service,
who explained:
“The small design in front of the
serial number indicates it is a
‘Star’ note. Every one-hundred-
millionth note is a ‘Star’ note.
They are used to replace notes that
are found to be defecti'v:.”
Now David has a problem:
Should he retain the on e-in,-0.-7 hun
dred-million bill or live it up a
dollar’s worth ?
Mix together shortening, sugar and eggs. Sift together all other
dry ingredients and add to shortening mixture. Blend in nuts.
Form into two rolls 2 inches in diameter. Wrap in wax paper.
Chill overnight. Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. Cut rolls into slices
Vs inch thick. Bake on ungreased sheet 8 to 10 minutes. Makes 12
dozen small cookies.

Blend in lemon juice and salt, then add pepper and Tabasco sauce
till mixture is spicy enough. Makes about 1% cups. Serve with
crisp crackers, potato or corn chips, celery or carrot sticks.
This same spread served on a crisp-fried tortilla or lettuce leaf
makes a delicious salad with any Mexican dish.

Remedial Readin
Pays Off
or
By BOB WEEKLY
Freshmen enrolled in the Basic
Division, and some upperclassmen,
have at their fingertips a course
designed, and almost uncondition
ally guaranteed, to improve their
overall grades at A&M—^Remedial
Reading.
Based on five objectives, remed
ial reading can take a student by
the hand and raise him to a higher-
plane of achievement merely by
improving, and in some cases
teaching, reading habits.
These five objectives are: im-.
provernent of reading comprehen
sion, vocabulary development, in
creasing rate of comprehension, ex
periences of reading in technical
fields and becoming more familiar
with supplementary aids which
might help make difficult reading
more understandable.
Remedial reading is not a re
quired course for incoming fresh
men, but it is a direct result of
them. A battery of aptitude and
achievement tests are administered
to new members of the Basic Div
ision each spring and fall. One
AFL-CIO Prexy
Rejects Soviet Bid
NEW YORK, —OP)— AFL-CIO
President George Mcany rejected
a Russian proposal for an exchange
of trade union delegations with
the United States.
“No believer in the basic prin
ciples of free trade unionism could
today conceivably desecrate these
principles by undertaking to visit
a country whose tyrannical leader
ship has for the 40 years of its ex
istence been the avowed and un
compromising- enemy of all human
rights,” Meany said.
The Russian proposal, part of a
broad program of expanded cul
tural exchanges, was presented in
Washington Monday by Soviet
Ambassador- Georgi N. Zarubin.
Meany answered it without wait
ing- for formal receipt of the bid
from the State Department.
of these tests is reading.. It tests
the Aggie’s comprehension, vocab
ulary and reading rate.
If a student is low in one of
these categories, the Basic Div
ision sends him a letter telling him,
in effect, that he is urged to reg
ister for Remedial Reading so that
he will have every opportunity to
insure his scholastic success. It
is hot mandatory.
In the classroom, the student
learns a basic method for reading
college textbooks. He practices
controlled reading with a machine
that projects print on a screen.
This develops skills important in
surveying, skimming, scanning, re
viewing and research type reading.
Reading- accelerators are used
to guide reading of regular printed
matter at predetermined rates.
Students are given a visual ex
amination for acuity, lateral and
vertical balance and depth percep
tion at distance and for reading.
Self tests are given in such sub
jects -as chemistry, math, social
studies, vocabulary and foreign
languages. Reading is conducted
for such purposes as getting the
main ideas, understanding prin
ciples, organization of ideas and
solving a problem.
Special emphasis is spent on
teaching students how to spend

NO SORRIER WARRIOR exists than the one without
Luckies. What’s he missing? A smoke that’s as light as
they come! End to end, a Lucky is made of superbly light
tobacco—golden rich, wonderfully good-tasting tobacco
that’s toasted to taste even better. That’s a lot to miss out
on—no wonder our chief has grief! Up North, you’d call
him a Blue Sioux; back East, a Bleak Creek. But out in
the land of the pueblo, he’s just a mighty Mopey Hopi.
(Smoke signal to you: Light up a Lucky. You’ll agree a
light smoke’s the right smoke for you!)
