The brilliant; lnvesituro cere- mony was held in the State Ball Room of Buckingham Palace with the traditional pomp before 200 spectators.

In slow file, the men passed before the 25-year-old ruler to re- ceive the decorations and eleva- tions which British Royalty gives to persons who have served their country well.

Those knighted knelt before Elizabeth to feel the touch of her glittering sword on both should- ers, then rose at her command to receive the congratulations she gave with radiant smiles.

Those receiving medals bowed. and then the Queen pinned the decorations to their jackets.

Among those honored was Flt. Lt. Charles Labelle of Montreal. 9. Canadian with the R.A.F. He was made a member of the Order of the British Empire for gal- lantry in a sea rescue last March.

It would be the first time that the high-sees fishery of the North- west Atlmtie was brought under

panel will recommend to the 10- country commission that the sins of haddock - fishery nets used on George's Bank be increased to allow the escape of unmsrketoble baby fish. The mesh would be in- creased from 2 1-! to S 8-4 inches.

The number of school books re- qulrediln the primary grades also came under discussion with even the teachers expressing the feeling that there were too many required. The view was also presented that parents should not have to buy them at all as they should be kept in the school and used by succeed- ing classes.

The new teaching theories were explained to the gathering by the panel whose members said that there was no longer just one class for a teacher but as manv as six classes in the same room. This arose from a. decision that children should not be compelled to learn at the pace of the slow students or. the bright ones. but should be al-I lowed to find their own learnlngl capacity level.
