Anaheim Gazette 3 FRIDAY MORNING, JAN. 16, 1953 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA Social and Club Activities IRENE JULIAN SOCIETY EDITOR Phone 2206 Cecil Bernard Speaks To George Washington P-TA On Strengthening Family Relations "Strengthening the Fabric of the Family" was the program theme at the George Washington P-TA meeting Wednesday night. Cecil Bernard, superintendent of Juvenile Hall, addressed the group. His remarks stimulated a constructive discussion period among the members, during which parents exchanged ideas which had proved practical in their own families for dealing with problems and guiding their children's activities. Mr Bernard, in describing cases of delinquent children, and the background of such cases, showed how certain factors which weaken the fabric of the family are nearly always present in delinquency. These directly contribute to the child's behavior problems. For most among these factors is the broken home, and Mr Bernard pointed out that the family which is complete on the surface may be more broken by dissension and quarreling than the home which death or divorce has robbed of one parent. Other primary reasons for delinquency are lack of love in the home, lack of parental interest and control, lack of family pride, no religious training or appreciation of the finer things and absence of orderliness in the opera- of whom they may be proud. Mr Bernard concluded by saying that the P-TA itself is the ideal organization for exchange of ideas among parents, studying neighborhood and family problems and providing solutions that will prevent delinquency and curb destructive tendencies. Parental cooperation with Boy and Girl Scouts, playground supervision and athletic training after school, music and participation in the band, family hobbies and parental guidance in the handling of money were among the suggestions made by members for strengthening the fabric of the family. Mr Bernard was introduced by Mrs R. A Damerall, program chairman Mrs. C C. Rettig opened the program with a vocal selection She sang "My Task," accompanied by her mother, Mrs V T Miller. Coffee and cake were served following the program by Mr and Mrs Ray Link who substituted for the third grade room mothers.

FUN WITM GAMES Anaheim youngsters have the fair share of vitality and hilarity good spirits. Mother can usually cope with those in her immediate family without half trying, but when a group of youngsters gather, she needs to have a game two on tap to keep things under control. Remember playing "button," but ton, whose's got the button" when you were a girl? One play stands in the center and the rest sit in a circle about him. A button or other small object is passed from hand to hand with players moving their hands as they were passing or receiving the button. The player in the middle tries to guess who really has the button, and when he does the person goes into the center of the circle to guess. Guessing games appeal to the imagination in any age group.

Olin Downs of the Times stated that the success of the concert version of Richard Strauss' "Elektra", in which Nikolaidi sang the role of Klytemnestra with the New York Philharmonic - Symphony under Dmitri Mitropoulos, was due in a large part to the "magnificent singing" of Elena Nikolaidi.

READING The folks enjoy having the leader choose a color and then try to guess which color he is thinking of. Or the leader might pick an object in the room, an article of clothing, or some part of nature if the scene is out of doors. Another simple game that needs no props is "I Spy." One player goes out of the room while the rest of the players hide an article in the room—either in plain sight or out of sight. When the player who has left the room begins his search, everyone helps him along by shouting "cold" when he goes away from it and "warm" or "hot" when he gets closer. GOOD GROOMING Padded hangers are a great help in keeping blouses in good order in your closet. Use them to keep your blouses shoulder shaped. Pin sachet to the underside of the tips of the hanger and not only will your blouses have the fragrant freshness which is a delightful part of good grooming, but the scent will penetrate the other garments in your wardrobe as well. A missing button, a rip at the seam or a snagged hem can put a suit or dress temporarily out of commission. Best medicine is to have a small sewing box handy to your ironing board to catch these impediments to good grooming as they appear. The knitted dresses, sweaters and scarves so popular now take kindly to a steam iron. Use of a steam iron is the easy way to smooth fit, graceful draping and that fluffed-in-the-air appearance. Wet weather plays havoc with shoes. To be sure you have a "good understanding." Inspect your wardrobe of shoes. In the interest of closet space it might be well to discard the ones which are no longer comfortable and to run over to the shoemaker with those which have a suggestion of heels, worn toes, loose stitching. Your favorite pair of old faithful may be worth resolving. Charming style note this season are the scarves and collar and cuff sets that add so much to basic costumes. To be effective they must be fresh as a daisy. Fix washable collars and cuffs so that they can be basted or snapped on Wash and starch often to maintain a fresh, crisp look.
