Cooperation Asked For School Census An appeal for general cooperation of all citizens of the county in tak ing the annual school census was made by Mrs. Lucy E. Rodgers, county school superintendent, before the Monday Lions luncheon. Mrs. Rodgers called attention to the fact that clerks of the various districts would be taking the census shortly and that it is to the advantage of each district to have the census com plete. All children between the ages of 4 and 20 are eligible for registra tion and the county and state school money is apportioned among the dis tricts according to the number of registrants. Mrs. Rodgers also asked that peo ple cooperate in listing children handicapped by sight deficiency. The state blind department has asked the district clerks to assist in making a complete record of blind cases in the state, and those suffering from defective sight to the extent of not being able to distinguish the fin gers of one hand when held at arms length are to be listed as sightless. A report of the annual school masters convention which he attend ed last week end at Salem was given by Alden Blankenship, local school superintendent. Of especial public interest he believed were the reports on curriculum changes and experiments being made over the state. Henry Tetz of Adams, former principal here, was among those re porting and the discussions he as sisted in leading held the close at tention of everyone, Blankenship said. The trend noted in this work is away from the old system of awarding high school credits upon a set number of subjects, and rather arranging the curriculum into broader fields to give a wider fun damental scope of all fields of know ledge. Mr. Blankenship saw the Oregon Frosh- O. S. C. Rook football game in Portland Saturday night, and re ported that La Verne Van Marter, former Heppner high star, went into the game for the frosh in the sec ond quarter and remained through out the play, turning in a nice performance.
