(Special to the “Star.”) LONDON, November 1. A reference to “people, who like to crab motor traffic in this country” was made by the Prince of Wales yesterday. when he opened Great Britain’s first village college at Sawston, near Cambridge. The college is the first, of eleven such buildings where boys and girls will receive training adapted to an agricultural career. “An 111 Wind ” “This village centre,” said the Prince, “will provide a school for the older children of no fewer than nine villages. This is only made possible by the development of modern motor transport, and I think to those people who like to crab the enormous increase of motor traffic in this country at the present time we might quote: ‘lt is an ill wind that blows nobody any good.’ (Hear, hear.) “This centre is more than a school. It includes an adult wing, and, with the hall and the library, will give opportunities for adult education in its broadest sense.”
