6 Thi Newi-Review, Roseburg. Ort.Thur., Aug. 21 1958 New Zealand Schoolmaster Disillusioned After Year Teaching In United States By FRANK HODGE AUCKLAND, New Zealand (AP) A ; New Zealand schoolmaster, E. B. Allison, says he is disillu sioned and sad after a year's teaching in the United States. A clip on the ears, he adds, would do a lot of good for some American children. Allison, a master at the Hamil ton Technical College, was in the United States as a Fulbright scholar for a year's teaching and lecturing experience. lie told the Hamilton Rotary Club of his impressions of the third form class of boys and girls whom he taught English at the Albany High School, Oregon. The boys, he said, wore tin pressed velvet trousers, Hawaiian shirts, shoes with three-inch soles; the girls tight skirts and trans parent blouses. Imitattd Stars "Almost every pupil tried to look like tne latest television star," Allison said. "There was no real concentration on school work because boys were over-conscious of the girls and vice versa." They were extremely backward in general knowledge, he said, and unable to answer test questions nut to firm form pupils in New Zealand. Allison said he had suggested 'that a school uniform be adopted, but was told nothing must be done to interfere with the American way of life. The master said he also had formed these opinions from his stay in the United States: The American race did not exist as a nation in peacetime. In wartime, yes, it was a nation, but in peacetime it was an empire or group of peoples. There was deliberate or acci dental falsification of facts. In a Roy Scouts' week, he said, the boys were told the movement initialed in the United Slates and spread to other countries. Founded In England (The Boy Scouts movement was founded in 1908 by Ihe English man, Lord Baden-Powell.) The United States education system tended to produce a lack of mental discipline and academic mediocrity. ALBANY, Ore. (AP) E. B. Allison, a New Zealand school teacher who spoke critically of schools here, taught a ninth grade class in Albany junior High about six years ago. Ivan Wilson, principal under whom Allison served, said he was amazed that he would speak dis paraginglyand speak after such a lapse of time. "He did a bang-up job here," Wilson said, "was respectful and cooperative and was complimen tary to all of us." The report of his criticism does n't jibe with the way he was when here, the principal said. He added that without his records he wasn't certain of the exact year Allison taught here but he thought it was 19.il -52. He said he could explain Alli son's comment only on the basis that "people like to blow off."
