951 1 MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, ORE. 750 Fellowships Planned by NSF For Instructors TM E D FO R D Ashland-As a means of im proving the teaching of sci ence and mathematics, the Na tional Science Foundations i plans to award 750 summer fellowships to high school teachers in those subject areas, Dr. Clarence E. Diebel, Southern Oregon college pro fessor of science, who recent ly was appointed to the selec tion board, has announced. Dr. Diebel said that a spe cial feature of the program of particular interest to teach ers of southern Oregon is that a fellowship recipient is al lowed up to three successive summers of study under the same award. Awards Noteworthy "These awards which, will be presented on March 25, 1959, he said, "are note worthy from the standpoint that they may go to teachers who have been in the field for a number of years who have . demonstrated superior teaching ability. This is defi nitely in contrast to the usual fellowship award in which the honor is conferred on persons relatively new to the teaching field who show promise and need of further training to become better teachers." Those awarded fellowships by the NSF will receive $75 per week from 6 weeks to 3 full summers plus $15 per week for wives and a like amount for each dependent child. They will also receive travel expenses to the institu tion selected and tuition and fees, Dr. Diebel said. Applications, which must be filed by Jan. 19, may be obtained by writing to Teach er frogram, AAAS, 1515 Mas sachusetts ave., NW, Washing ton 5, D.C.
