(U.R) The classroom walls were studded with science display geared to the mind of a fifth-grader, but the "pupils" were listening to a lecture on aeronautical re search bv a specialist in the field. The setting was Stanford Uni veisity and the students were actually high school teachers, recipients of Shell Merit Fellow ships in a "back-to-sumfner school" plan at Cornell Univer sity and Stanford. The aeronautical lecture, con ducted in a hall usually devoted to instruction of prospective ele mentary teachers, was one of a series in the Shell program de signed to motivate high school students, through their teachers, to enter the fields of science, mathematics, and engineering. When Shell Companies Foun dation, Inc., announced its fel lowship program last spring, both Cornell and Stanford were flooded with applications Ac cording to Dr. R. Hurd, coor dinator of the California project, several thousand high school teachers applied for the 30 Stan ford grants and the 30 at Cor nell. Fellowship winner met mini mum requirements by having taught physic, chemistry, and or mathematics for five years in their high schools throughout the United States. Field Trips Two Stanford students, who included two women, ranged in age from 27 to 50, were from both public and private schools. Their teaching experience too had a wide range, but the singu lar common qualification, said , Dr. Hurd, was an aptitude for further study. Dr. Hurd emphasized that the Shell program, unlike other fel lowship programs designed as Notices Should Be Filed for Hearing Persons who desire to be heard at the public hearing on bureau of land management and forest service proposals to with draw 23.358.67 ' acres, along Rogue river in Jackson and Jose phine counties for use as recrea- j tional areas should notify Virgil T. Heath, state supervisor, bu reau of land management, Port land. The hearing will be held at 9 a.m. Tuesday, Nov. 20, in the Josephine county courthouse in Grants Pass. ' teacher "refresher" courses, granted scholarships only to those teachers who were as ad vanced in their respective fields as was possible. In addition to the daily lec tures by outstanding scientists, engineers', -tnd mathematicians who explained their own re search, the Stanford students visited research and industrial laboratories. Their formal train ing included special methods courses in teaching, advanced courses in their respective fields, and research of value to the particular school systems in which they will be teaching this fall. Under the program, scholar ship recipients received travel expenses, living allowances while on the campus, SSOO in cash to offset the loss of poten tial summer earnings, and school fees.
