BY RICHARD l'FIT'.
The month of January is
shaping up as a bi~ one for
everyone at Therrell. Four
very noteworthy events are
on the calendar fort his period.
Probably one of the least
liked but nonetheless most
important happenings at the
present time is semester final
exams. The semester finals
determine what progress a
student is making in each of
his subjects. The testings
will be conducted on Thursday, Friday , and Monday, January 10th, 11th, and 14th.
Next of all, January hails
the start of regular season
basketball competition. The
Panther Varsity Cagers having taken a win only from
Roosevelt are really hustling.
The Pantherenes are presently showing everybody that the
Red n' Black knows how to do
it. After romping Lakeshore
and then dropping one to College Park, they bounced back
to gun down Grady, Fulton,
Bass, and North Fulton.
Also included for sometime
in middle January will be the
annual language fair. This
spotlights bits of culture from
many different countries. All
three foreign languages taught
at Therrell plus English will
be showcased at the fair. Anyone who would like to loan ·
the language dept. an article
for the show should contact

teaches French at Therrell
and is chairman of the show.

6. As a result of a steppedup work program , it is anticipated that the downtown Expressway c;onnector as well as
the airport connector will be
finished before the end of 1963 .
7. Funds must be found to let

8. The urban renewal program in Atlanta must be expanded.
9. A vigorous traffic law

the last eight months of 1962
gave Atlanta the" best and safest driving in recent years. "
As of April I, the record
showed 30 traffic deaths as

period of 1961. But in the last
eight months Atlanta had 11

injuries and 205 fewer property dama ge accidents than
in the s ame period of 1961 .
Stringent traffic la w enforcement will be continued.

by Angus Hibbard, the Bell System's first
general manager, and included the words

"Long Distance Telephone" inside the outline of a bell
which was enclosed in a rectangle. Eventually the wording
was changed to "Local and Long Distance Telephone,"
and still later a double circle replaced the rectangle. The
seal, as it now appears, dates from 1939. You'll see this

Singer Rosemary Clooney
has been a recognized celebrity for many years -- but
it took a scar to get special
attention from her five children.
Miss Clooney, who'll make
her TV dramatic debut in The
Losers" on · NBC-TV's "The
Dick Powell Show" Tuesday,
Jan. 15, confessed to co-stars
Lee Marvin and Keenan Wynn
that her children were never
impressed by the fact that
mom was a star.
But in "The Losers " Rosemary plays a farmgirl who has
never known love because she
thinks the scar on her face
makes her repulsive to men.
The scar, which was built"
onto her face , is made of glue,
rubber and -grease paint, One
night during the filming of the
comedy-drama she went home
without removing her makeup,
and when the kids spotted the
':lcar they thought it was great.
"I've been singing songs for
years," says Rosemary, "and
my children couldn 't have
cared less -- but when they

It is the natural decomposition of the urine in the diaper
by certain bacteria that results in the foundation of
ammonia , a powerful skin
irritant. The wet diaper also
seems to emphasize the presence of any traces of irritating soap and detergent
which have not been completely r insed away after washing.
It also seems to be a suitable environment for the skinirritating bacteria that have
survived the diaper's washing because washing is not
sterilizing.
Most doctors as well as the.
American Medical As·s ociation are agreed that the processing of diapers by a professional diaper service is
far more effective in restra ining the growth of ammonia-'

"JANUARY 1963 -- ROUNDTABLE"
One of our Scouting resoli.i:..
tions for the New Year should
be to resolve to attend each
monthly roundtable.
We can't give our Units the
best program if we don(t get
the program ourselves. A
good many Scouters, both volunteer and professional, give
of their time and talent to provide our programs and to interpret
these
programs
through the roundtable. Let's
show our appreciation and loyalty by attending our round
tables each· month,
"1910 to 1963"
THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY
brings
SCOUT BIR1HDAY
week. What is your unit going to do about it?
Some Units have an annual
affair of some kind, some have
a Family Nite, some have Pot
Luck Suppers. I know of at
least one Cub Pack that has
an annual Blue and Golc;I banquet.
Some Units put up window
display, some have Father and
Son camps.
What are you going to do?
I know of one Unit that will
have an Open House display of
subjects related to the Merit
Badges.
All of our Units should attend
church as a unit. The uniform should be proudly worn
during Scout Week.
So------let's have all units
do a little something extra
for Scout Week 1963.

I. It is a sad but true fact
that the "Physical Fitness"
Merit Badge ·is the stumbling block for a lot of our
scouts. Two scouts that I know
of are stopped cold ·on this
Merit Badge, the only thing
holding them up on the Eagle Rank.
One of these scouts is doing something about it . he asked for and received forChristmas a set of bar bells and he
is using them.
Some units
are incorporating in the weekly programs a portion of Physical Fitness. ltwouldn'thurt
all of our Unitstodothesame,
it will show some results and
maybe get our scouts into the
habit. S,h all we try it?
