CHAPPAQUA- \The possibility of any increase in state aid for next year is slight.\ This was the conclusion of Morris Lacker, president of the Chappaqua Board of Education following a report by Dr. Charles Cowan, superintendent of schools on the Diefendorf Committee in terim report at Monday's board meeting. The Diefendorf report, which was made public on Jan. 4, cen tered mainly on ways to cut school costs, without due consid eration for the essential purpos es of education, said Dr. Cowan. The Diefendorf program, he :e- last year, when it was sought to wipe out a crazy quilt pattern of state aid that had grown up over the years. It was expected that this year some of the inequi ties that occurred in the program would be eliminated. Instead the approach is negative, the Chap paqua superintendent said.

By WILLIAM PAHLMANN The sort of linens you buy for your dining room depends on the way you live and the way you entertain. Few homes at present have the formal, three-meals-a- day routine which called for damask tablecloths, and large parties are apt to feature buffet tables. It is perfectly proper to lay a formal dinner table with linen place mats, and may even be preferable if you have a beauti ful dining table, I prefer keeping table mats rather plain, since so much china is patterned and patterned china shows off to a better advantage on a plain, solid-color mat. Natural colored linen, off-white or ivory with matching napkins is always a safe choice for the dinner table. If your dining room is informal, colored linen mats with match ing napkins are also suitable. Fine lace mats with linen nap kins of like caliber are elegant. Washable Thai silk mats are a current vogue. They come in beautiful colors. Large banquet-type table cloths with self-toned designs, in off- white, ivory or pastel colors are smart. Choose colors to go with the rest of the color scheme of the dining room. Printed table cloths seem to me to be suit able only for the most informal occasions or out-of-door buffets. The selection of luncheon cloths, luncheon place mats, tea cloths and luncheon sets should be given considerable thought, if you need this sort of linen. They should have both freshness and dignity and should never be so fancy that they suffer from laundering. If you entertain often at bridge, bridge table sets could be chosen in different colors. But again, safety lies in a single soft color which does not clash with the rooms where the tables may be set up. It is really better to have all bridge sets alike, if sev eral tables are set Up in the same room. When choosing linens for the dining room, always think of the quality of your china, silver and glass, so that the linen will have the same sort of values. Delicate porcelain does not got with a coarse linen mat, and ironstone does not go with organdy. Stain less steel, pottery and heavy glasswear require a coarser quality of linen. Paper napkins certainly have their uses, and linen napkins have to be ironed, but nothing replaces the tone of a linen nap kin, especially at dinner. Chil dren brought up entirely with plastic mats and paper napkins cannot possibly appreciate the finer points of dining. A little ceremony at the dinner table is always useful. There are wonderful assort ments of colorful tea towels these days for use in the kitchen, and I approve of attractive tea towels. They should be gay imaginative absorbent and sturdy. I wouldn't invest in too many different types. Tea towels that are alike look smarter in a kitchen. Kitchen curtains are usually available at white sales, and when you buy these, choose them for quality. Cheaply made curtains won't stand up in a washing machine. If you have inherited beauti- ul linens, don't let them molder away in a drawer. Use them at east occasionally. They profit by aundering and fine linen crowns i house. Water Crew Finds Break In Bedford BEDFORD HILLS— If you think it was cold Mon day night (some thermometers were registering 10 degrees be low zero on Tuesday morn ing) you should have been with Delmar Matteson and his crew who worked through the night on a break in the water main in the water main in front of Bed ford Hills school.
