serves as a proving ground.

area and to keep his methods
of teaching up-to-date.

Teachers are unemployed
three months of the year, but
few teachers take the full sum-
mer for rest and relaxation.
Many find ‘additional jobs to
supplement their income be-
cause even if their pay is cal-
culated on a nine, months basis,
they have to live 12 months. It
is due to this and other reasons
that many qualified people
leave teaching as a vocation.
More money is the key even if
it does mean working eleven to
eleven and one half months out (

out, many ’ Baytown teachers

charges were filed by Houston
Police against him. He Is ac-
cused of storing 5,000 pounds of.
gunpowder without a permit.
“ If the owner of the shop,
Glenn W. Slade Jr., Is found
’ guilty, it could cost him $62,200
in fines.
The changes were for storing
the^jgunpowder for 311 days
without a permit.
_. Thirteen otbergun shops and
1 discount stores in the Houston
area were charged with the
same offense after surprise in-
spections Wednesday morning.
The bulk powder is sold to
sportsmen who like to load
their own cartridges.
Bob Bredehoeft, acting city
fire marshall, said the 5.000
pounds of powder could level
"two or three city blocks."
Store managers contacted by
