VV Need Seen for Curriculum Change Salem-UPD-Dr. Gerald Wal lace, superintendent of Cor vallis schools, told a two-day conference on secondary edu cation here Thursday that there was a need for strength ening and changing the cur riculum of Oregon schools. But he said "we're not just going to educate the best and shoot the rest." Oregon schools will be faced with the challenge in the next 10 years of restoring respect for learning, he said, adding that unless this respect is restored "we will surely sink into mediocrity." Wallace said that teachers must be relieved of teaching subjects that do not contribute to real learning, so that they can improve current cur riculum. Wallace said there was a definite need for better sci ence, mathematics and lan guage instruction, but that many students who couldn't cope with such courses also must be educated to perform useful tasks.
