Help:; Sr.pnort Local
Educational Programs
In a year-end review of Depart
ment of Health, Education, and
Welfare programs to help public
schools, colleges, universities, and
individual students in Alaska, F.
W. Hunter, Regional Director for
the Department, stated:
“The federal-state partnership
for the support of the local educa
tional programs of our nation is
an essential element for the future
progress of our country. During
the past year t’ is partnership has
provided an increased stimulus of
our educational systems.”
“Under the National Defense
Education Act, area vocational
schools offering technical pro
grams, have been expanded. Under
the Manpower Development and
Training Act, and the Area De
velopment Act, both passed last
year, training programs are now
getting underway.”
An estimated 2,013 high school
students in Alaska were enrolled
in vocational classes during the
year, 3fi in area schools for skilled
technic'nns.
Loans totaling $13,799 were made
to 44 students to enable them to
pursue t’eir higher education in
Alaska. During the year, pay
ments of $21,368 were made to
Alaska to strengthen guidance,
counseling, and testing programs.
Durin-? the year, a total of $3,990
was granted for educational re
search in Alaska.
For all purposes, during 1962
the Dent, of Health, Education, and
Welfare, invested an estimated
$10,468..331 for education in Alas- |
ka. The total sum invested for the |
entire country, to improve edur,a- j
tion and to expand educational j
opportunities, is about $600 mil- '
lion for 1962.

Lady Luck Rings
Twice In Lottery
ROME Lady luck rang twice
last Sunday night in Italy. A soc
cer pool player won the equivalent
of $294,400 on a 24-cent ticket. An
unemployed surveyor won $240,000
in a national song lottery.
Neither prize is taxable.
The soccer pool prize was the
largest this season. The winner,
who purchased his ticket at Cata
nia, Sicily, did not sign his name
and may never be identified pub
licly.
Soccer pool players need not
give their names. The season’s last
big winner, a Bologna resident who
won $270,000 a month ago, has not
been identified.
The size of the prizes depends
on the number of players each
week. The more players, the bigger
the prize.
Players must guess the outcome
of 13 Sunday soccer games. Those
guessing all 13 correctly split the
first prize. On a day of upsets,
such as Sunday, there may be only
one winner. Some winners have
collected more than $320,000 in
past years.

Fall of the Dyn^ties
Is Book of Mon*1’
Selection for rv"
The Fall of the Dynasties, th"
Book of the Month Club selectin''
for February, describes the collansj
of an era of kings and emperors—
a panoply of royalty which had
endured for hundreds of years, yet
which suddenly vanis' ed. Readers
who enjoyed The Guns of August,
a club selection a year ago, will
find Edmond Taylor’s carefully r-'
searched and elegantly phrased
book equally absorbing,
Mr. Taylor’s account begins with
the assassination of the Austrian
Archduke at Sarajevo in 1914, and
ends, as Gilbert Highct points out
in his report in the Book of the :
Month Club News, “with the
drunken hysteria of the brittle
peace years of the early ’20s.”
“Revolutions there have be^n bo- j
fore, and will be again,” Mr. Hh'het
says, “But when the great re nl
and imperial dynasties of Europe
fell, it was as though age-old
mountains had dissolved into dust,,
and the raging seas had rushed into ■
the protected plains. The Habs
burgs, the Romanoys, the Hohen
zollerns, the Osmanlis had domi
nated four hundred million human
beings for decades, for generations,
for centuries. Suddenly, within a
few quick months, they were
gone.”
