General Dwight D. Eisenhower,
first SHAPE commander, started
building SHAPE village in July,
1951, to ease the French housing
shortage and to push his doctrine
, that “each one of us must be just
| one-fourteenth national and 13
I parts international.”
The site chosen was a 55-acre
wooden hillside tract in St. Ger-
main, about 10 miles west of Paris
and eight miles from SHAPE.
Ninety-live days after work start-
ed, the first 18 8HAPE families
moved into the modernistic, bal-
conied three and four-storied apart-
ment blocks dotted in a long curve
amid the trees.
Now there are 305 apartments
and all the trappings of a small
town-markets, schools, Boy and
Girl Scouts, Sunday school and
athletic teams.
Notable School
The plumbing and fixtures please
even the Americans—refrigerators,
central heating, electric cooking
ranges.
Rents range from $37.76 a month
for a small apartment for an en-
listed man—combined living room-
dinette, kitchen, bathroom and one
bedroom—to $155.75 for the largest
five-bedroom place for an officer.
The nearby SHAPE school has
419 children from 10 nations. Prin-
cipal Rene Tallard said that In two
weeks a child can learn enough
French, the school's common lan-
guage, to Join in singing “Frere
Jacques” and other nursery songs.
“In three months, with our Swed-
ish and Swiss teaching methods,
they can learn a basic vocabulary
of 400 words and take part in the
lessons,” he said. “Once a week, j
national instructors come in for,
specialized subjects.
"Most ol the foreign children end
up speaking far better French than :
their parents, and even help mother ,
interpret in the shops.”
French children are in the major- i
ity, but there we also 95 Americans,
70 British, 42 Dutch, 20 Italians, 15 I
Canadians, nine little Turks, eight I
Norwegians and Danes and five
Belgians and Luxembourgers.
