Heat Wave Hits
Southern California
LOS ANGELES MW — A heat
wave died Monday—and took
three lives with It.
In Los Angeles a truck driver
collapsed and died on his milk
delivery route. Across the border
at Tijuana, Mexico, two infants
died.
Nine other infants perished in
water-shy Tijuana during the
weekend, when temperatures hit
110 degrees.
It was the worst October heat
wave in Southern California rec
ords. It started Friday when hot
desert winds swept from the can
yons, drove away the usual Octo
ber sea breezes, and turned sea
side resorts into the nation’s hot
test cities.
The forecast was for more heat.
Then, Tuesday, the sea-breezes re
turned. After three days of over
100-degree readings, the Los
Angeles temperature rose by mid
day to only 97. In two hours, as
breezes returned, it was Sn the
80s.

I we painted
some music
It may seem unusual that these young
sters are painting “by ear”... turning
music from the classroom radio into
colorful pictures. But this is the kind
of creativeness the Standard School
Broadcast inspires.
Currently, the program’s theme is
“Music—Passport to the World.”
Using our listening guide, teachers
relate music to geography, history,
art, folklore, literature.
This helps children gain insight into
the life and culture of the peoples
of the world. It leads to better and
quicker understanding of both the
music and the other studies.
By playing and dramatizing all types
of music—from symphony to jazz,
Thailand dances to Broadway hits,
the program adds a new, delightful
dimension to learning.
We started this program 33 years
ago, never dreaming our listening
family would grow to include 2%
million children in classrooms. Now
jjJP‘ countless adults, too, have discovered
how entertaining and informative
& *he broadcasts are at home.
& ^ y°u d Kke to know why the pro
gram has such wide appeal, try tuning
in on Thursdays. We think you will
r« enjoy it, too.
