Senate Floor Fight
WASHINGTON Wl Harry A.
McDonald has won approval of the
Senate Banking Committee to head
the Reconstruction Finance Cor
poration, but his appointment still
faces a Senate floor fight.
The committee, which had the
nomination bottled up for seven
weeks, finally voted Tuesday sev
en to three in favor of the former
Detroit business man.
Sen. Capehart (R.-Ind.), ranking
Republican on the Banking Com
mittee, has served notice he will
seek to delay floor action until the
Senate acts on bills to abolish the
big lending agency or revise its
loan 'policies. Capehart was not
present for yesterday's vote.
Sen. Douglas (D-Ill.,) who voted
gainst McDonald in the commit
tee, said he would ask the Senate
to reject him because he believes
McDonald it not "strong enough
and tough enough for the Job."

Apt And 'Slow'
Pupils Discussed
At PTA Meeting
Schools are neglecting the
"gifted" children in emFhashing
the instruction of average or slow
pupils, John A. Lucas, special ed
ucation . director for Roseburg
schools, said Monday.
Lucaa took part la the Fuller
ton Parent - Teacher Discussion
Group Monday night at the school
"We are not giving emphasis In
more attention to educating; the
ers," he said, "but are giving
more attention to educating the
average and ilnw pupils."
He preferred to call these lead
ers "gifted" children and added
that, except what the individual
classroom teacher can do, noth
ing is being done for them.
Lucas and other teachers attend
ing the discussion agreed that if
classes could be kept down to
20 pupils, teachers would have
enough time for extra work with
gifted children.
But when classes reach 30 or
more, the only answer Is to make
supplementary reading available,
Lucas said. i
I Individual conferences with par
ant ufniiM ha "tastlv annprtor"
to the report card system, it was
agreed by Lucas and two Fuller
ton first grade teachers, Mrs. Ed
na Matthews and Mrs. Bo.iita Wi
koff. They pointed out that teach
ers and parents could discuss more
fully the problems of the children
througn comerences.
In rWmiino his work as special
education director, Lucas stressed
that the children be worxeo. wun
ar "oYrentional" in that each
has only one specific handicap but
is normal in every oiner wuy.
"Slow" Students Handled
Many mentally slow students
are attending the schools, Lucas
said. They have an intelligence
quotient usually ranging from 50
to 90, while the average is slightly
more than 100.
If the 10 is below 50, education
is undertaken at the Fairview
Home. The slow child in the pub
lic schools may be retained in the
first, second or third grades to
expose bim to the fundamental
subjects at a level where be'U be
most able to grasp them, Lucas
commented. Then he is pushed
on through year after year in or-
der not to De loo ia.- out ol uu
age group.
Lucas demonstrated the audio
meter test for hearing and the
Smellen eye chart and telli-bonoc-ular
test for vision. He cited the
case of a paralytic child who car
ried on studies wun me am oi
equipment that flashed reading
material and pictures on the ceil
ing. The special education director
placed special emphasis on the
tachistocope. terming it "the most
helpful mechanical device for re
medial reading."
Next month the Fullerton school
age discussion group will take up
the physical education program.

the muse with a rich heritage from
her father, conductor of the Can
adian Operetta Society and from
her mother, leading soprano of the
organization, until Pierrette took
over when still in her teens.
At 14 she made her professional
radio debut over station CKAC and
was so successful the same station
gave her a program of her own,
"Rhythm and Melodies." In 1943,
under the baton i of Sir Thomas
Beecham, she made her operatic
debut in Montreal, with a Metropol
itan Opera cast, singing the part
of Barbarina in "The Marriage of
Figaro." She made her New York
debut with the Metropolitan in
1945 and has been equally success
ful with that company and on tours
