OREGON PHYSICIANS' SERVICE BLWSHIELD Sponsored ond approved by Oregon State AWdfeol Society 3 Maranlo Blag., Roseburg, Oregon Benson School Relations Good, In Deller's View Supt. M. C. Dcller told the Rose burg School Board Wednesday night that he uncovered nothing but "good working relationships" in an investigation of complaints against Benson School teachers voiced last week by three mothers from the Umpqua Park district. He suggested that complaints against teachers should follow a "chain of command," with the teacher first to be contacted, then the principal of the school involved. If persons appear before the board to register such complaints, Company To Double Pulp Mill Capacity PORTLAND (AP) The capac ity of the Georgia-Pacific Corp. pulp and paper mill at Toledo, Ore., will be doubled, the corpora tion announced Wednesday. The increase at the Toledo plant and a similar plant, which the firm said will be built at Samoa, Calif., will cost an estimated 30 million dollars. The Toledo project will start within 30 days and be in produc tion by mid-1960, said H. Stuart Daniels, the corporation's presi dent. He said the addition will in crease plant capacity to 600 tons a day. Daniels said engineering work on the Samoa plant is underway and the construction schedule calls for production by early 1962. The California plant, like that at Toledo, will use wood chips from the firm's plywood plant in the two areas. Georgia-Pacific holds more than 4 billion feet of lumber in the Eureka-Samoa area of Northern California. It recently opened one new plywood plant there and has another under construction. Mussels, Clams In Toxic Season The state Board of Health today issued a warning against eating marine mussels or uncleaned clams taken from Oregon coastal waters this spring and summer. Dr. Harold M. Erickson, state health officer, noted that clams or mussels may contain a strong poison from May through Octo ber as a result of feeding on cer tain small organisms. Mussels should not be eaten and black portions of clams should be re moved and destroyed during the danger period, warned Erickson.

If they have not, they should be im mediately referred back to those parties, declared Deller. Unwarranted Publicity Averted The superintendent said such a procedure would tend to settle parent-teacher problems "without unwarranted and unfair publicity." Director Harold Hoyt agreed with Deller's idea, commenting that school boards .several years ago welcomed all sorts of public par ticipation in meetings with the re sult that the board's efficiency in tackling more important problems was reduced because of limited time. He said the board should not be saddled with delving into "petty discipline problems" when these can better be handled at the school level. Only if parents have gained no satisfaction at lower levels should such gripes be brought be fore the board, he claimed. Fellow board members Arthur Lamka and Darley Ware express ed contentions that the public should feel free to bring problems before . the board, however. Hoyt replied that no restrictions on public participation had been implied, but that some sort of or der in handling of such problems is needed. Closed Sessions Eyed Deller said parent-teacher prob lems might best be handled in closed sessions similar to those called for personnel discussions in cases where board consideration is warranted. Benson Principal Jim Hayden prepared an explanatory report on the complaints and presented it to the board, as requested by Deller. In the report, Hayden said the Benson staff believes the vast ma jority of parents in the Benson dis trict, "regardless of where they live, approve of and appreciate the high standards of behavior re quired and expected of their chil dren." . The "petty gripes" against the school are believed by the staff to be "the feelings of the women making them." He noted that one of the three women has no chil dren in the school. The real basis for the complaints was the fact that "their children are not attend ing the school of their choice and that they have been moved sev eral times," continued Hayden. Personnel Should Be Apprised The principal said no attempt was made by the parents to work out their problems with school per sonnel. Such complaints "should receive no hearing by the board until individuals can verify that they were unable to work out their differences with their local school teachers and principal," Hayden concluded. The mothers appeared at t h e meeting last week specifically to request that their children be transferred permanently back to Fullerton School, where they origi nally were enrolled. Umpqua Park children, because of enrollment problems in several schools, have been shuttled from Fullerton to Rose and, finally, to Benson in the past three years. Dr. H. Nels Lindell, director elect who will take the place of board chairman Wayne Crooch in July, said from the audience that he believes the complaints were direct emotional outgrowths from the women's concern over this problem. Kindergarten Tots Set For 'Degrees' Multi - colored "Bachelor of Rhymes" degrees will be handed out Friday to 24 Hucrest-Rivers-dale area youngsters who have ob tained an educational head start, so to speak, on most other Rose burg area tots. The lively 6-year-olds have spent the last eight months in Roscburg's newest kindergarten, located in the Congregational Christian Church building in the Ilucrest district. The children have been taught ar tistic and musical skills not to mention some social graces by teacher Mrs. Doris Cooksey in preparation for entering Ilucrest or Riversdale schools next year. The Hucrest class, financed by parents, is one of only two kinder garten setups in the Roseburg area. A similar class at Fullerton School now is rounding out its sec ond year. The Hucrest PTA sponsors the class and parents of children en rolled pay $10 a month to finance it. Joe Scallon, principal at Hu crest School, serves in the same capacity at the kindergarten. Graduation exercises in the class room Friday afternoon will be con ducted along with registration of children for next year. Mrs. James Cave is handling registrations for 1959-60.
