Selles Go Nautical; Tour Eastern Coast With adventurous hearts and some 70 odd charts, Mr. and Mrs. Carl M. Selle put out on the “Sea Change”, their 26 foot boat. Years of work with the- U . S. Power Squadron gave Mr. Selle the ex perience he needed with piloting and navigation and so, with Mrs. 'Selle taking charge of the naviga tion, Mr. Selle took to the helm. The two started out from the Solomon Islands, Md., and covered some 1,400 odd miles before reach ing Fort Lauderdale, Fla. They did most of their traveling on the intra-coastal waterway which was often very wide anal rough, but the weather w a s good even though they were heading into the wind constantly. On their jounney, Mr and Mrs. Selle did quite a hit of exploring by cruising along rivers and bays. Along the way, they met many different people wlio proved not only to be extremely interesting but hospitable as well. There were no major catastro phes en route outside of being run aground five times, For one of these episodes, thanks may be MacNaughton Enters Watkins Grand Frix Donald G, MacNaughton, busi ness manager of the college, was successful in being among the twenty-four starters qualifying' for the hundred mile endurance race at Grand Island, August 30. Finishing among the first twelve in that ten-lap qualifying race, Mr. MacNaughton, in his sleek Nash- Healy, w e n t on to finish in tenth spot of the main event despite motor trouble caused by differen ces in gasoline mixtures. M acNaughton’s was the only stock car in the main event, the others having souped-up engines. His average speed over the hun dred mile course was approximate ly 70 mph. Mr. MacNaughton has submitted his entry for the internationally famous Grand Prix at Watkins Glen tomorrow. This race has a course w h ich includes all types of road surfaces and conditions. Although Mr. MacN aught on has been interested in sports cars and their mechanics, he did not start his racing career until last sum mer. In his first race which was in W ilkes-Barre, Pa., he took third spot. “Now”, he says, “I’ve got it in m y blood.” Mr. MacNaughton is a member of the Sportscar Club of America, having been licensed as having an ■Official Competition Car. Cars have to m e e t the stiffest of quali fications in ordei to gain mem bership in this club. His Nash-Healy is a 1951 model shipped from England. Its chassis is hand-made, powered by a stand ard Nash motor. The smooth, easy body lines make it an idoal car for sports racing. His plans for the future are to continue in racing. He is at present making plans for a new motor which he expects to have soon. His present motor is a 165 hp. Nash engine. extended to a government tug. Another avoided disaster w a s the rescue of the prize passenger, Lubber Line. For the sake of clari fication, Lubber Line is the Selle’s cat who somehow managed to fall overboard, but who was hastily retrieved by means of a crab net. The Selles took great pride in the “Sea Change” and kept her in tip-top shape throughout the cruise. “She’s probably the only boat to have Geneseo as a port of regis ter,” said Mr. Selle w ith a smile, and when asked how he felt about the trip as a whole, he added, “Boating is not relaxing, it’s just a form of pleasant hard labor!” European Trip for Neureiter Family Financed by Fulbright Scholarship During the last week in August, Dr. Paul Neureiter set sail for Holland with his wife and daugh ter. This trip, financed! by the Fullbright scholarship, marks the twenty-fifth year of Dr. Neureiter’s life in America and the realiza tion of a dream come true. Twenty-five years ago, Dr. Neureiter departed from his native Austria for a five-month stay in the United States. To finance this trip, since at that time there was no government provision for the exchange of students and ed ucators, a fam ily lot in Vienna was sold. Just a few days before the date of his voyage, Dr. N eu reiter obtained the eight hundred dollars which were to cover his expences during his stay here. A s a graduate of the University of Vienna, Dr. Neureiter was ex tremely interested in certain high ly progressive educational reforms which he encountered while teach ing in an experimental second ary school and Junior college for exceptionally gifted youngsters. This school was sponsored hy the Austrian Ministry of Education. However, Dr. Neureiter wished to study the American school system as a possible model for the A u s trian schools. At the same time Dr, Kenneth R. Riesch Is Education Director Dr. Kenneth P. Riesch has been selected to fill the new position of Director of Elementary Educa tion. This new post has been estab lished in order to combine in one program the activities hitherto conducted in the program of cadet teaching, in the Division of Ed ucation, and in the Campus School. Dr. Riesch is a native of W is consin. He has had wide exper ience as a teacher in elementary schools and in special classes, as a principal of an elementary school and as a professor and department head in college and university work. Immediately before coming to Geneseo he has served as Head of the Department of Education in Bethany College. During the sum mers of 1951 and 1952 he has served also as visiting professor of elementary education in the Uni versity of Tampa and the Univer sity of Mississippi. In addition to his main professional interest in the field of elementary education, Dr. Riesch has been actively int erested in work with the Boy Scouts and in religious education. nxxxttxtttxtxxtxtxtxxnittnxxxtxixtitxxtxtxttixxx tixxnxti STUDENTS-Take NOTICE M c D onald ’ s clothing store r n m e s 2-HOUR DRY CLEARING and You GUYS McGREGOR SPORTSW E A R WEMBLEY TIES M ANH ATTAN SHIRTS and other T O P B R A N D S at 89 M ain Street (•M I P A A n M \V t m m he wanted to promote good will between America and Austria I the field of bettering international relations through the exchange 0f teachers and students, Dr. Neu reiter stands as a pioneer A few days before the date 0f his return to Austria, a teaching position in a teachers college was offered to Dr. Neureiter. He gladly excepted the offer, and continued to teach there until his visa ex pired one and a half years later In Austria once more, Dr. Neu reiter found that he no longer liked his former teaching position; con ditions were disturbed with the rumblings of civil strife to come. In 1931 he reentered the United 'States— this time as an imigrant with the intention of staying perl manently. He returned to his posi tion in Chicago, later taught at two other institutions, and finally came to Geneseo in 1937. The Neureiters plan to spend their first ten days in the Hague attending orientation courses for all Fullbright recipients. From there, they will travel to Amster dam to take up work in three school's—the Five Year H. B. S. the Christlijke H. B. S., and the Lyceum for Girls. Money for the Fullbright ap pointments came originally from funds which friendly foreign gov ernments paid for American sur plus equipment at the end of the second world war. These payments could not be converted into dol lars, and so were set aside for use in furthering world peace by the exchange of teachers and students. xxttxxttxtxixxmmtxxtxxxtxtixxxxxtxxxtxxtxxn College Students T a k e out a C O N V E N IE N C E C h e c k in g A c c o u n t “HERE’S WHY” IP s S a fe r to P a y by C h e c k .
