Fun and games were the rules of the
house Saturday afternoon during the
Youth center's Mini-Carnival.
Though it was snowing outside, laugh-
ter filled the air inside as the stu-
dents from the first through the sixth
grade tried their luck and skill at the
various booths. The bean bag toss, dart
throw and basketball toss put their aim
to the test. The spin art booth provid-
ed each person with the opportunity to
make his own unique design with paint.
For those brave enough to gaze into the
future, a fortune teller was on hand to
"tell all." If a student wanted to try
something easy, there was the fish pond,
where every young angler was guaranteed
a bite.
No carnival is without a sweet shop
and the Youth Center's was no exception.
The CPO Club provided cupcakes and
cookies, enough to satisfy even the
strongest of sweet tooths. In addition
to the profits from the bake sale, the
club also donated $25 to the center.
All the proceeds from the carnival
will go toward purchasing new equipment
for the Youth Center. It may not have
been a P. T. Barnum spectacular, but the
Youth Center Mini-Carnival achieved its
goal — a fun-filled afternoon for all.
April showerst bring flowers
April marks the beginning of the
transition to the summer season in Ice-
land as distinguished by longer days,
warmer temperatures and the occurrence
of rain increasing and snow decreasing.
During April the continued weakening of
the Greenland High and the northward
movement of the Polar Jet Streams com-
bine to shift the primary storm track
northward. Low pressure systems will
continue approaching Keflavik from the
southwest, but due to their rapid move-
ment, the low ceilings and reduced visi-
bilities they produce will be of short
duration.
The average temperature for April is
38.3F (3.5C). Prevailing winds are from
the eastern quadrant with a mean speed
of 14 knots. The peak gust for April
came from the south-southwest at 67
knots in 1969. Chill Index II continues
to be a common occurrence during April
with Chill Index III rarely occurring.
Rain and/or‘drizzle can be expected
to occur on 20 days during the month
with an average of 3.77 inches (95.7mm).
Snow will occur on 12 days with total
accumulation averaging 7.6 inches (19.3
cm) for the month. On the average, 78
per cent of the sky will be covered with
clouds with overcast conditions prevail-
ing 47.8 per cent of the time. Fog can
be expected to occur on 9 days during
the month.
The sun will rise on April 1 at 6:52
a.m. and set at 8:19 p.m. for a total of
13 hours and 27 minutes of daylight. On
April 30 the sun will rise at 5:09
a.m. and set at 9:47 p.m. for a total of
16 hours, 38 minutes of daylight. This
is a total gain of 3 hours and 11 min-
utes of daylight during the month.
BEV BUZZELL (left), chairman of the Family Services Center, and Mary Harrison,
former chairman, discuss the forthcoming Family Services Center sponsored flea
market. Mrs. Buzzell said organizational sign up for booths and auction items be-
gan yesterday. Anyone who wishes to have a booth at the flea market should call
Family Services at 5209 or 6203, Monday through Friday between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m.
Mrs. Harrison, who worked many long and dedicated hours as former chairman, said
the center still needs volunteers. Wives of servicemen from all branches are
needed to round out the wide and varied backgrounds of current volunteers. She
also said single servicewomen would be welcome additions to the Family Services
staff.

The changes are as follows:

effort to improve the nursery so
that it better meets the needs of
the NATO community.
