w n h the new school year near,
Rep. Wyden w ill hold an open forum
lo discuss how io get Oregon s kids
ready to learn. The forum w ill focus
on a Wyden proposal which would
combat the obstacles pre-school chil­
dren frequently lace at the start ol
their education.
The Carnegie Foundation, which
has done exhaustive research on this
topic, maintains that kids ate ill pre­
pared because ot a lack ot emotional
security, moral aw areness,proficiency
in language, and general knowledge.
These obstacles are often worsened
by poverty, hunj r, lack ol available
health care, and an over-exposure of
television show s. In tact, by the time
achild begins the first grade, he or she
is likely to have w atched over 4,000
hours ot television. 1 he Carnegie
Foundation sax s that next to parents,
television is the most influential pre­
school teacher.
“ I ’m particularly concerned that
com m ercial television networks,
