Department of Educa tion, im AMmil A.N INSTITUTE OF Boulevard, Los Angeles 27, California. "What is group counseling?" asks a client at the American Institute of Family Relations. "I've heard of individual coun seling, of course, for family and personal problems, but I'd like to know more about group guid ance. How does it work? Or does it work? Do people really let down their hair with a bunch of listeners? What kind of prob lems come out in a group? And how do you avoid fireworks if a husband and wife criticize each other?" Here at the American Institute of Family' Relations in Los Angeles, we see an increasing number of people who find they can talk through their emo tional problems and profit from the inter-action of grotrp therapy. Under the guidence of Clinton E. Phillips. M. A., associate director of the department of counseling, five groups three for the unmarried (Human Re lations Workshops) and two for the married run simultaneous ly. In these groups, clients, re ferred to the Institute by "Group" graduates, by physic ians, by clergymen, or readers of our publications, come for help in adjusting to social or j psychological problems. j Let us follow Jane G. to one of the Institute's three work-' shops in Human Relations. Jane is 28 years old, wistful, slightly dowdy, with no prospects of a ; honeymoon. She feels that some- j thing must be wrong with her : but she doesn't know what: all ; her friends are married, and she wants to be married also. Why is she still single? How, bluntly, can she find a man and make herself marriageable? After four hours of Individual- : ized private conferences at the 1 Institute, Jane knows consider-1 ably more about herself and her ; problems than before. She knows that she is insecure, and that men sense and avoid this inse curity. She knows in general what she must do to "find her-! self," but she isn't just certain how to do it. So she turns to -a group of people who have sim- . ilar problems, whose ages range : from late twenties through fifty. I The groups are small, number-1 ing about eight clients, meeting lis hours a week. Gradually in turn, members talk through their problems, with all con- j tributing suggestions, under the direction of a trained counselor moderator. They discuss prob- ; lems freely, without the emo tion so often found in family or friend-discussions. Gradually they understand their faux pas, I their limitations, their means of increasing their social effective-; ness. The counselor acts as a ; father-substitute when necessary, I helping the group to evaluate, . clarity, and interpret their find ings. He initiates emotional re- ; Schools To Hold Open House Central Point Open house will be held Sunday, October 21, at Jewett school in Central Point and Patrick school, Gold Hill. Hours wil be from 2 to 5 p.m. at both schools. At a recent meeting of the ex ecutive committee of Central Point Parent - Teacher associa tion, December 6 was set as the date of the annual dinner. It will be a chili feed. The committee voted to donate $150 to Jewett schools for pur chase of equipment of the school's choice. The membership chairman re ported that about 460 parents and teachers have joined the PTA unit. A budget submitted by Mrs. N. G. Cote, Eugene Ferreli, C. E. Chamberlain and Mrs. Clinton Charley was approved by the committee. Navy Seaplane Sets Hawaii-U.S. Record Alameda, Calif. (U.R) A four engine Navy Trade Wind set a new world seaplane record Thursday when it completed the 2,100-mile trip from Honolulu to the mainland in 6 hours, 45 minutes. The old record of 10 hours, 21 minutes was set in 1948 by the "Caroline," a Mars predecessor to the Trade Wind. The record was set by the "Indian Ocean," making its first test run over the Pacific. The plane, carrying a crew of 25 and seven observers, averaged 320 miles per hour during its record-breaking flight. The Indian Ocean, 170,000- pound Convair-made plane, will be used for mid-air refueling and troop transport, the Navy said. REFUGEES DEPART Bremen, Germany (U.R) The U. S. troop transport "General Langfilt" left for the United States Thursday with 1,250 Ger mans and refugee immigrants to Happiness FAMILY RELATIONS, JIS7 Sunset lationships, calling attention to significant elements, "priming the pump, pouring oil on troubled waters as indicated. Jane C. eventually may re ceive increased understanding on her dress, her hair, her man nerisms, her emotional tone, not only from her group counselor, who coordinate with her individ ual counselor, but also from the whole group of her sister and brother clients. With their help, Jane may find her chances on the marriage most improved a hundred-fold. How often do the unmarried find marriage after counseling? Mr. Phillips laughed when we asked for statistics. "Out of a recent class of 11," he smiled, "10 married an unusually high but interesting percentage. We like to think group counseling helped them to find happiness. Next week, we shall discuss group counseling for marital problems. ANY OTHER TRIP WHICH COSTS UP TO $2,500, OR TAKE $2,500 CASH Friday.
