Through my open portals, students and a few learned professors pour from the first toot of the whistle to the last.

My youngsters, being healthy and bubbling with energy and knowledge, often require a snack before lunch.

When eventide draws its shade and Griffen finishes growling about the amount of mail, I reach my climax. They rush into my arms, some declaring that their "only ones" are no longer so precious, others wondering why he doesn't write? Many jabber gaily and discuss events of the day. Suddenly the whistle blows and they rush wildly out. When Joe locks up, a feeling of loneliness surges through my wooden heart, and I wonder why a man would want to live in a house by the side of the road whn there are such houses as college book stores.

Later there will be another series entitled "Western North Carolina Towns in Review." These programs are planned for W. W. N. C. The first several programs will deal with school life in various Western North Carolina high schools and elementary schools. We are planning thirty minute programs for the high schools; fifteen minute programs for the elementary schools. The schools can either take a standard educational script and dramatize it, or they can work up an original script of their own. To date seven out of ten schooi were approached pro ive it un- aon. Most of the ils are planning a variety program which will play up things which are unique in their schools. College departments and clubs are invited to participate in this program.
