Education Discussed for Annual Meeting of League Six phases of education which will be discussed in a series of meetings leading up to Presi dent Eisenhower's White House conference next fall were the topic of a talk given by Mrs. Betty Lou Dunlop, instructor at Southern Oregon college, for Medford League of Women Vot ers Saturday. The meeting, the annual luncheon and election of officers of the league, was held at the Medford hotel. Mrs. Dunlop's talk here fol lowed soon after the announce ment that she had been awarded the trinennial fellowship of American Association of Uni versity Women in Oregon, this being the first time that the award had gone to an educator. Mrs. Dunlop defined educa-j tion as the formal training de veloped, adopted by and made available to society whicjh will tend to develop the child into a socially acceptable adult. In order to develop a system of education that fulfills the re quirements of society, Mrs. Dun lop spoke of the need of recog nizing the differences in chil dren, incorporating into this sys tem facilities for the develop ment of the different intellectual, levels and various aptitudinal in terests of children. This is all necessary in order that all fields necessary to a wholesome, well rounded society, in which the artistic, the professional, the mechanical as well as the intel-J lectral fields are filled with trained, well adjusted adults, the speaker said. Complying with President Eis enhower's plan, the discussion on the six phases of education will be held May 9 here in Med ford, Mrs. Dunlop said. In the local conference, and again in the state and national confer ences, the pros and cons of all six subjects, will be discussed, she declared. The first question will be "What should our schools accomplish?" Following this will be, "How can we get the school facilities we need?", "How can we get enough good teachers and keep them?", "How can we or ganize our school systems most efficiently and economically?", "How can we pay for our schools?", and "How can we ob tain a continuing public sup port of education?" In speaking of President Eis enhower's having cited a need for the equalization of educa tional opportunities, Mrs. Dun lop gave a few statistics which emphasized this need. Through out the United States she said, the average expenditure per child in school is $200, in Ore gon it is $319, in New York $325, in Mississippi its $89. California, Mrs. Dunlop said, is a state of adult and retired people with only 170 children per 100 adults. While in Ken tucky 272 children for every Ul niece . tat m 2 99 SSLlSSFfi?. "1 f' Ckj Tuesday, May 3. 1955 1000 adults. The income in these two states is such that from the same percentage of tax base, the California child has a little over S3 00 while the Kentucky child has a little less than S100 to pay for his education. This inequally of opportunity should be stabilized if possible, she said. Mrs. Dunlop referred lightly, but unfavorably, to the inequal ity of expenditure by the public between what it pays for educa tion as compared to what it pays for liquor and tobacco. Mrs. Dunlop said-society must must accept the fact that it has to work hand in hand with the schools in order to develope the student society demands. The subject of discipline should be dwelt upon extensively, she added. A child need's the dignity that results from self-discipline, she said. In this day and age, violence, extravagance and over-indulgence are magnified falsely and made to seem im portant beyond all necessity through the modern media of TV, radio, newspapers, comic books, movies, and magazines, Mrs. Dunlap declared- This should be counteracted through education, not the formal sys tem of training found only in schools, but in the home, the most important media of educa tion wherein we will evolve the well-adjusted, productive, whole man society needs so badly, the speaker added. The conference May 9 in Medford will be open to the pub lic and anyone interested is urged to attend. It is thought that everyone who has children in school, or who is interested in the field of education will be interested in having had a part in this development of an answer to the question, "Where do we go from here in education?" Class Party Held By Piano Pupils A class party held at the piano studio of Mrs. Nell Taylor Sat urday afternoon served to dem onstrate progress in solo and two-piano ensemble playing of the students for parents and friends who attended.

Junior High Operetta To Be Friday As a climax to National Music week observance, Medford Jun ior High school will present its annual operetta Friday, May 6. Ray Lewis, vocal music instruc tor, is in charge, assisted by Jerry McDougall and Don Dar neille. Approximately 250 eighth and ninth grade singers will par ticipate. The operetta, "Steamboat A Comin' " by Mildred Kerr and Roger Wilson, is considered es pecially approprite since it is typically American in music, scenes, and story. Music week participation always promotes work of American composers and music which can be consid ered a basic part of our national heritage. This lively, humorous produc tion takes place in the south dur ing a period in the growth of this country which might be called the "golden age of the river." Three of the scenes are set in a river village, the fourth on a river boat. Special featured soloists will include Dana Ragsdale, Bruce Boldenow, Tom Morris and Jack Foster. The dramatic leads are Pam Cooksey, Dana Ragsdale, Maureen McCurdy, Nancy Ad ams, Larry Albright, David Frohnmayer, Tom Morris, Dick and Jim Corum, Sid Smith, Cecil Easterly and Ted Lawson. At 4:30 p.m. Wednesday por tions of the operetta will be pre sented over KBES-TV. The Fri day evening performance will begin at 8 at the Junior High school gymnasium. A small ad mission will be charged. 4 Members Attend Lady Bug Session A group of Jackson county members of the Military Order of Lady Bugs attended a recent spring council meeting held in Roseburg.
