TWO MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Wednesday. May IS, 19S7 Mrs- Graham Speaks Against Working Wives By GAY PAULEY United rets. Correspondent New York TO Mrs. Billy Graham, who says "one speaker in the family is enough," spoke out today about working wives, happiness in marriage and juve nile crime. She deplored the steady in crease in the number of women fiUing dual roles as homemaker and career woman. "I just don't approve of the working wife," she said in an in terview. "Except, of course, in the case of those who for finan cial reasons must work. But ca reer in preference to a home? No!" "So a job may mean a second car in the garage, or a mink coat. But something still will be miss ing." Did she think the growing number of working women also might be a factor in the nation's high divorce rate? "Could be," said Ruth Graham. "I hadn't thought about it much . . . but tension has a lot to do with fam ily arguments. If both husband and wife work, it means two peo ple coming home tense." Mrs. Graham believes religious training should begin early with children. "Check the statistics," she said, "and I think you'll find few juvenile delinquents come from homes where prayer is a part of the family's daily life." She rarely makes public ap pearances. "One speaker in the family is enough," she said, and she usually does not accompany Graham on crusades. She is not worried about the New York crusade, which has been under quiet but elaborate preparation for more than a year. "New York is no worse than any other city," said Mrs. Gra ham. "It is just bigger. "Some people think Billy is trying to change the city . . . it will be the same, but many lives will be changed, we hope. "Even if it is just one life, it will have been worth it. . "Sometimes we underestimate the value of one soul." - Phoenix Church Women to Hold tbeeting Thursday The Womens association of the lirst Presbyterian church, Phoe nix, will meet Thursday, May IS, at 10:30 a.m. A business meeting will be beld during the morning fol lowed by a covered dish lunch eon with a program during the afternoon.

Sha said she has the cure. Sister Aquinas is supervisor of elementary education for the diocese of Green Bay, and in the past 10 years her workshop methods of educating youth have spread to 45 other Catho lic diocese and archdiocese through the country. She said that unless children learn to love learning -"juvenile delinquency will swallow up the country within 20 years. "Grownups are fast surrend ering their leadership to juven iles," she said. "If grownups fail to lead them, they will be led to juvenile goals of living." This nun is a rarity in the religious world. In 1943, she was asked to teach a pre-flight course at Catholic University, Washington, D.C. She left St. Ambrose High school at Iron wood, Mich., where she had been a crack instructor in aerodynam ics and led 17 classes through the basic pre-flight rigors be fore they were sent to flight school. At , Catholic U., she applied her workshop theories of educa tion, and textbooks got help from practical applications of blue prints, activities, models, real planes, buildings, machines and communications equipment. "In the workshop method of teaching," she said, "individual differences are best served. The more talented are challenged, and leaders are developed." Sister Aquinas thinks, too, that teachers are best served through the workshop method. "Children learn both by doing and by instruction," she said. "The fullness of educational re search is realized in the work shop classrooms." Sisiter Aquinas, who always wanted to be a teacher, was graduated as an honor student from the . Zanesville, O., High School at 16. She then entered the convent. In the early 1940's she pre pared herself for teaching aero dynamics, a course the govern ment was pressing to have taught, by learning to fly and getting a license. She even learned intricate aerial maneuv ers. This led to the Washington assignment. Electronics Degree "There is nothing to fear in flying except fear itself," she said, "and I never had any." - When the war ended, Sister Aquinas was off 4o Notre Dame to earn a degree in electronics. She is a firm believer that know ing as much as possible is neces sary to be a good teacher. Since coming to Green Bav's Catholic educational system, Sis ter Aquinas has been on the go. showing other teachers her worshop methods. Her fame has caught on. the story of ther life is the subject of a book, film and television play. Her latest project is starting a college at Manitowoc, Wis., which will specialize in training teachers in her workshop meth ods. Sister Aquinas wants this school to be training ground for teachers from all over the world. "Education through motiva tion is the only answer to juve nile problems," she said. "We must interest youth, we must find a way to keep them busy with the things they like to do, and will do for a life work."
