I ..V:. .i' .' .)-.'. -.1 4 r HJoman 5 Ciub Jfredident eiv "More people are fired for nol being able to get along with oth ers than for not being able to do the job' Mrs. Betty Lou Dunlop, immediate past .State Education Chairman of the American Asso ciation of University Women, told AAUW members at the May meet ing of the Roseburg Branoh Wed nesday evening. Mrs. Dunlop spoke on "What Should Our Schools Ac complish?" She stressed raising the general intellectual level o( the schools: fostering an "intel lectual elite." She pointed out ihat this rinnends nnon the nro gram before tho high school level.l She contrasted this with the na tion wide trend of recognizing the "athletic elite." Mrs. Dunlop placed discipline as second accomplishment, holding up a self-disciplined individual as a person of dignity. The schools should create an atmosphere where dumtv is part or the child's train ing. In contrast she showed that schools cannot create such an at' mosphcre for the child as long as aociety continues with sensational ism violence and lawlessness. "Young people should be made enterprising with ideas, Mrs. Dun lop insLsted. They should be made to see that ideas which will pro duce statesmen and scientists can spark people to be enterprising, just as strongly as the dollar sign." "Cooperation is the ey lo so ciety and always has been," Mrs Dunlop said. She demonstrated that cooperation can be accom plished through movement and communication of pupils in the classroom, citing this as progres sive education and not bedlam as too many people have assumed. She summed up the old, autocratic type of teaching by asking. Is Ihc best education looking at the back of another person's head? Can co operation he learned that way?" Mrs. Dunlop brought out four additional points. Since there are so many fine young people of mor al mleerily in the schools she would have good behavior recog nized and so much talk annul de linquency given a back scat for a change. Sho would train for social ability. She would recognize and encour age those with practical, creative ability in mechanical and artistic fields. Last of all Mrs. Dunlop would have the withdrawal tvpe" recog nized, Ihose with emotional prob lems who won't accept anything, JOSEPH LANE PTA SETS MEETING WEDNESDAY Joseph Lano PTA which regu larly meets the fourth Monday of each month will not hold its meet ing unlil Wednesday, May 25, at tho school witli the physical edu cation demonstration following in the school auditorium, the meet ing will begin proiftptlv at 7:30 p.m. in the school library.
