Tentative plans have been made for several tours, in cluding a chartered airplane flight over the valley Thurs day afternoon, June 12. On Friday the delegates will visit the domiciliary at Camp White. The Medford hotel will be headquarters during the stay, with the business session scheduled to be held in the Moose hall. The DAV auxili ary will hold its meetings in the YMCA building. The state gathering of the DAV in Medford should be more than just another state convention. It represents in a significant way attention that has been given here in the past decade to care of the disabled. The Rogue valley has long been recognized for its recre ational advantages but it has only been in recent years that recognition has been directed to its facilities in the matter of health. Through the support given by various service groups, the former Army camp at Camp White has been made into a center for the care and treat ment of disabled soldiers, sail ors and marines under Vet erans administration. A strong move Is now under way to make use of the remaining unoccupied buildings for a VA medical center. The record of . progress made at Camp White in deal ing with disabled veterans Is a moving story of great achievement with the limited resourses made available. Other VA installations have material, equipment and per sonnel of the highest order to gain the objectives of rehabil Cation. With little more than the spirit of the pioneers to spur them, miracles have been wrought by and for the physi cally disabled men in the In centive toward improvement individually and in the en vironment of change, which is always for the better. The attention .to physical medicine and rehabilitation, and the addition of techni tians to the staff as well as the increased cooperation with specialists in this com munity, have given to the program the importance which the medical aspects of the veteran problem war rants. made with Southern Oregon college to present a series of lectures at the domiciliary for the benifit of nurses and at tendants dealing with prob lems of caring for the increas ing number of aging veterans. The first lecture was given last Thursday by Dr. Loren Messenger, professor of psy chology at the college. The schedule follows: May 15, Dr. Arthur Kreisman, on literature of leisure; May 22, Dr. Alexander Peterson, dean of the school of education, on physiotherapy and recreation pertaining to the aged; and May 29, Dr. Herbert Cecil, professor of music on musi cal therapy. Dr. Messenger reviewed the psychological aspects of grow ing older where the individual finds himself approaching an ever narrowing circle of asso ciations. Ways to combat the feeling that "I don't matter to nobody" were stressed to gether with the realizations that the older generation can not compete with the younger Adjustments must be made to the physical deterioration of age, he said. Although no two people in an age group are alike, there is one inter est that does not decline with age and that is the creative ability. He urged cultivation of this faculty, and the feeling of belonging to a group with a moving interest in life.

Ricker an nounces that as the result of a two-day visit here by Dr. Neil P. McCloy, of San Fran cisco, area consultant in or thopedic surgery, and Ray Marchington, prosthetic spe cialist from the VA regional office, Portland, this station will be included in the itin erary of orthopedists who will make a quarterly check of the need for appliances, re placements and other factors bearing on the use of artifi . cial limbs. Dr. TV Allen Casey, chief of th orthopedic service at the Vancouver VA hospital, will Vaad the team. These periodic iits are designed to encour age members who are dissat isfied with their appliances to be fitted and in some cases to recommend changes to con form with the disability.

States. The reason is that Killian has never taken the college courses in educational meth odology that are required by every U. S. state and terri tory for certification as a pub lic school teacher. These certification require ments have become a main bone of contention in the con troversy over what's wrong with U. S. schools. The National Education As sociation contends that certi fication laws have helped to raise and maintain "profess ional standards" in teaching. It says that "on the average" present state requirements for courses in teaching tech niques are "not excessive." Charge Closed Shop Critics contend that pro fessional educationists, spear headed by the NEA and its af filiates, have used certifica tion laws to set up a closed shop in which no one can get a job unless he has a "union card" degree from a teacher's college. They say that most of these colleges turn out graduates who have been stuffed with "professional training in how to teach but have been starved for general education in what to teach. In this controversy, as in many others, facts are harder to come by than opinions However, here are some per tinent facts, gathered from a study of the teacher certifi cation laws in force in 48 states and four U. S. territor ies: All 52 states and territor ies specify that applicants for a regular teaching certificate must have completed a certain minimum number of semester hours of college work in pro fessional education courses. A college graduate who lacks these courses can get a temp orary or provisional teaching license in most states. But he will have to go back to col lege or to summer school la ter to make up the required education courses if he hopes to get a career teaching cer tificate. Lowest Standard Noted The lowest requirement, five semester hours of educa tion courses, is in. effect in Missouri and South Dakota. Other low requirement states are Kansas and Nebraska, six hours, and West Virginia, 11 hours The stiff est require ment is enforced by the Dis trict of Columbia where an elementary school teacher must have 40 semester hours of credits in educational psy chology, in practice' teaching, and in other professional edu cation courses. The median requirement for all 52 states and territor ies is about 24 hours. Most states require few er professional education credits for a high school teacher than for an elemen tary teacher. It also is custom ary to specify a certain mini mum number of credits which he is licensed to teach. . The education course re quirements for high school teachers range from 12 semes ter .hours (Arkansas, Maine, Massachusetts, Oklahoma and Tt i 4 n -T i Tha hacoKll .aa.nn renusyivauia 10 i semester opened Tuesday night with N"? (Washington State). The courses in education are known as "crips" or easy credit courses. Critics also say that every teacher whether in elemen tary or high school, and re gardless of the particular sub ject he is licensed to teach should be a broadly educated person with a better-than-average grounding in all of the liberal arts. Otherwise, they say, he is not likely to instill an appre ciation of intellectual achieve ment in his studies. LEGAL NOTICES the game between the Camp White and Southern Oregon college teams.

Call Contention Unfair NEA officials point out that the academic course require ments for high school teach ers are, on the average, as great or greater than the edu cation course requirements, Therefore, they say, it is un fair to contend that high school teachers are long on methodology and short on ac ademic background. As for elementary teachers, professional educationists ar gue that any person who grad uates from college must have had plenty of formal training in reading, writing, arithme tic, and other elementary school subjects. Therefore, it is entirely proper for' their college curriculum to empha size the best ways to help children learn these subjects Critics of modern education a diverse, largely unorgan ized but highly vocal group that includes many prominent scientists, college professor, and authors have at least two replies to these argu ments. une is tnat tne require ments for professional educa tion courses listed above are merely the legal minimum. Most graduates of teachers' colleges, or of the education departments of universities, can and do take many more courses in education, partic ularly critics say, where LEGAL NOTICES MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Oregon, Wednesday, May 14, 1951 JA STUBBORN SOIL?

Quigg Talks To Psychologist on Music New York don't you," a friend By DOC QUIGG United Pres Correspondent (IP ."Why writes, "consult a friendly psycholo gist and do a column about poor, puzzled humanity try ing to turn the clock back to pappy's day?" "There's the sack, of course. "And on a single day this week a radio listener I know heard the following revivals: 'You'd Be Surprised,' Twi light . Time,' 'Who's Sorry Now,' 'Only a Shanty etc.,' 'Tiptoe Through the Tulips,' 'I've Got the World on a String,' 'Mood Indigo,' and 'Sophisticated Lady.' Most of these were con temporaneous with you as a young man or even older. What does it all mean? Is it we're just sick of rock 'n' roll and 'J.D.

When I turn back the clock, I turn it back to the World War I days when I used to sing "If He Can Fight Like He Can Love" "The every Hun, had better run, and find a great big lin den tree ... if he can fight, like he can love, then it's goodbye Ger-man-ee". However, the revivals are getting clear back to ragtime riches, in some instances. The other day I heard a new re cording of "Everybody's Doin' It" (doin what? turkey trot). And even in the new songs, some of the lyrics are going back right through recorded history into the grunts and wheezes of the good old cave man days. Brief Response But .on to - psychology. I called one of the leading men in the field. He was friendly all right. Also honest. He lis tened to the evidence, as com piled by my friend; and the questions. He thought a moment and then said: "I'm awfully sorry, I don't have an opinion that would be useful. I just don't have a reaction." This was the most delight- j ful and certainly briefest in-1 terview I ever had with a psychologist. There may never be another like it.
