Although this invitation is open throughout the year, Mr. Phillips said, this week has been set de as “Visit- ing Week” in the hope that large numbers of parents will make an effort to attend class meetings over the five-day period Concentrated visiting over the week is a logical way to com- memorate National Education Week, Mr. Phillips said, because in this way parents get a true picture of the everyday school life of their children. be An early presentation of “Back to School Night,” considered origi- nally as a probable way to cele- brate National Education Week, has been cancelled due to incompletion , of the annual exhibits shown throughout the schools.

Speaking before the closing ses- sion of the two-day SAE conven- tion, Fay said jet propulsion is an application of Newton's third law of motion, by which for “every action there must be an equal and opposite reaction.” “When you step out of a canoe,” Fay said, “the pressure foot pushes the canoce back into the lake. That is how jet propul- sion works.” There are no problems or or common engine trouble with gas turbine engines, the earch director said.
