Frances E. Willard forgotten, holiday commemorating her lost by Jan Kelley Somewhere, maybe right now, a lady who died some 69 years ago is looking and probably smiling to herself at our ignor ance and controversy concerning her cause. The lady in question is Fran ces E. Willard, America’s most honored temperance leader. In Sniurance yvaenci^ GOOD RATES FOR YOUNG DRIVERS Phone 288-5095 4103 N.E. TILLAMOOK PORTLAND, OREGON 97212 fact, she was so honored that a holiday is celebrated in her honor. Section 370, Chapter 336 of the Oregon State statutes de clares that the afternoon of the fourth Friday in October be set aside for instruction and com memoration of Frances Eliza beth Willard; and continues to say that, “All public school of ficials and public school teach ers shall carry out the provisions of this article.” Really? Frances E. Willard Day falls on October 27 this year. Will it be celebrated as it has in previous years, with ab solutely no recognition? Devoting her entire life to a cause, Frances E. Willard won the admiration and love of a vast number of people, even those who did not fully agree with her beliefs. A “loathsome, hideous fiend, Strong Drink” is how alcoholic beverage was described by Miss Willard. A forgotten person and a neg lected holiday? Happy Frances E. Willard Day!

Sandy Blvd. by June Ammon “The Portland State Student Aid program has served a worth while purpose and will be of special value this year to teach ers who can use additional help as a result of their class loads, special types of programs which demand more teacher time, and in other class activities where additional help is necessary,” stated Gust Kanas, vice-principal in charge of curriculum. For the third consecutive year, Portland State College is continuing their student aid program with the high schools in the Portland School district. On an application card which is shown to the college students, a high school teacher indicates specific tasks for which student help is wanted. College students, in their education methods class, are given the opportunity to as sist in the specified tasks, for the most part, students volun teer’ from one to five hours per week for working in the class room, helping in any way the teacher desires. Teacher aid work mainly includes working with in dividual students and groups of students, correcting and working with papers and other clerical tasks, and helping with students’ spe cial problems, such as read ing and writing. According to Mr. Kanas, “In most cases in the past two years, this cooperative program has been both satisfactory and bene ficial to the students and teach ers.” This type of program is part of a larger program for the gain ing of pre-teaching experience. On the high school level, there are two programs organized to give students experience in teaching. The Future Teachers of America club is a group or ganized for students interested in teaching. It is designed to give them a “first taste” of the profession. This year, for the first time, a number of pupils are serving as teachers’ assist ants. They help teachers in var ious ways, on the order of the college student aids, during their study hall period. The college level has the stu dent observers, who observe teaching, teachers, and class room procedure, student aids, who help and become familiar with the school setting before becoming student teachers, and student teachers who help teach classes, thereby gaining valu able experience.
