    Most High School
Graduates To Attend
Colleges by 1970
Portland - (UPD - a cniw
president told an education
conference Monday that by
1970 about two-thirds of the
high school graduates in this
country will go on to institu
tions of higher education.
The forecast was marie hv
Dr. Lee DuBridge, president
01 California Institute of
.technology, to the 44th an
nual convention of the Nation
al Association of Secondary
ocnooi principals here.
Cites Statistics
Dr. DuBridge cited statis
tics dating back to 1900. He
said at the start of the 20th
century only four out of every
ivo young peopie of college
age were enrolled in a college
or university. At that time,
he said, only 9 per cent com
pleted high school.
By 1930, he said, the col
lege population had risen to
15 per cent and by 1959 near
ly 50 per cent of high school
graduates were entering a col
lege or university.
He said he attached great
importance to the problem of
giving proper attention to
students who will terminate
their formal education at the

end of their high school years.
But, he said, "it is equally
important that we continue to
give serious attention to the
large number of students
planning to continue educa
tion beyond high school."
Suggestions Offered
He offered five suggestions
as to how high schools could
improve chances that better
students would be admitted to
and graduate from a good
college.
1. Create an atmosphere in
which intellectual achieve
ment is recognized, admired
and respected.
2. Provide a solid base of
academic subjects required of
all students.
3. Recognize the wide vari
ations in the intellectual ca
pacities among any group of
students.
4. High school teachers and
college teachers must work
more intimately together in
re-examining subject matter
content of high school courses.
Lot of Learning Needed
5. "Most important of all"
we must somenow incuiate
in students of all levels more
of the love of learning, more
of the adventure of learning."
Hubert N. Alyea, professor
of chemistry at Princeton,
told educators that lucky ac
cidents had made possible
man-made plastics, man-made
drugs and man-made atoms.
But he said each "lucky acci
dent which led to a great dis
covery did so because the ex
perimenter was trained."

H. P. Jewett School
Central Point - Students of
the first and second grades at
the Jewett Elementary
school, were given the state
audio tests last week.
This service is by the Jack-
on county health department
in conjunction with the state
department of education
hearing conservation program
arranged by the Oregon state
board of health. The tests de
tect hearing difficulties and
other ear problems requiring
medical attention.
The Jewett school had an
assembly program last Wed
nesday. Three rooms joined
in preparing a short program
and invited the other rooms
to be their guests in the cafe
torium. Mrs. Helen Johnson's
room did a number honoring
George Washington's birth
day. Mrs. Betty von der Hel
len's room did an exercise
about the seasons and Mrs.
Rhoda Haskins' first graders
did a choral reading about
the Little Red Hen and the
Grain of Wheat.
Rocks are the chief center
of interest in the science
classes. Mrs. Johnson's and
Mrs. Olivia Ryerson's rooms
have some very interesting
specimens.
Many signs of spring are
appearing in the second
grade. Pussy willows were
the first to appear, but they
were followed by jasmine,
forsythia and crocuses. The
pussy willows were used in
art classes in Mrs. Viola
Schwab's and Mrs. Katherine
Leavitt's rooms. The children
made pussy cats out of them
and used them in cut paper
designs. They cut paper vases
and filled them with pussy
willow catkins. The children
in Mrs. Schwab's room are
also doing free hand cutting
and pasting to illustrate the
stories that have been read.
In Mrs. Alice Gay's room,
the children have brought
jars of different kinds of soil
to school. In the soil they
have planted beans. They put
the jars in the sun and wa
ter them each day. The chil
dren are going to watch for
-how soon the plants begin
to grow, if the seeds grow in
every jar, if 'the plants are
all big, and if some of the
plants grow better than
others and if any of the plants
die.

Contributions to Aid in
Fight of Kidney Disease
Coin canisters have been
placed in . many locations in
the Medford area in the 1960
"K-Day" campaign in which
contributions, are received to
help fight kidney disease,
Mrs. Gordon T. Elliott, 1951
West Main st., Medford, has
announced.
Mrs. Elliott, chairman of
the 1960 drive, said contribu
tions will help support serv
ice projects, including a drug
bank which supplies medi
cines to victims of nephrosis
and other kidney diseases,
and increased research into ill
nesses which are fatal to
thousands each year.
The Kidney Disease Foun
dation, which estimated that
at least 3 million Americans
are victims of some form of
kidney disease, sponsors re
search projects in 45 univer
sities and medical centers.
Nephrosis, Mrs. Elliott not

ney diseases which require re
search into causes, cures and
treatment.
Another Is hypertension,
about 25 per cent of which has
been estimated to involve a
malfunctioning kidney. Pye
lonephritis, most common of
all kidney diseases, has been
a leading cause of death al
though it is curable, Mrs. El
liott said. Today, new diag
nostic techniques, including
radio-active tracers, help find
the condition earlier, and con
trol its progress.
' Another condition in which
the kidney plays a major role
is toxemia, a common com
plication of pregnancy. In its
severest form, known as
eclampsis, the condition takes

Barbara D. - Stan doesn't
care for Ms stepfather.
Stanley B. - I'd be better
off with my uncle.
Barbara D. I was recent
ly remarried and I feel that
I am caught between the devil
and the deep blue sea where
the relationship between my
son and his stepfather is con
cerned. ' '
I was a widow for four
years and I realize it's hard
for the kids to adjust to hav
ing a new man in the house
- especially for - our oldest
boy,; Stan, 14. The younger
boy and girl took to their dad
from the start.
George has been just won
derful to Stan, but the boy is
very cold to him. This hurts
George terribly as he has tried
to be a real pal to Stan. He
loves the boy, but Stan has
even said he wants to leave
us and stay with his uncle.
.'
. Stanley B. - Before Mom
married again she said if I
couldn't get along with my
new father she would let me
spend all my weekends and
vacations with my uncle. Now
when I want to go there, she
says she didn't mean every
single weekend and vacation.
Mom says I haven't tried to
like my stepfather, but she's
wrong. I have tried. I know
he wants to be nice to me,
but he gets on my nerves. He
wants to take me' fishing, to
ball games and stuff like that
and I'd rather go with my
friends. He complains to my
mother if I don't want to go
with him.
My uncle says he'd be will
ing to adopt me if Mom would
let him. I'd be better off with
him.
'
The Council: A number of
factors are interfering with
Stanley's adjustment to his
stepfather and we think the
biggest one is the father's ex
treme efforts to please and
curry favor.
George, the stepfather,
should be aware that although
most of us like attention, we
don't like being overwhelmed
or engulfed by another per
son and we are decidedly sus
picious or contemptuous of
those who give up their own
natural self-assertion in an at
tempt to win. a token of af
fection from us.

An adolescent boy like Stan
1 e y, particularly, is annoyed
by the spectacle of a mature
man trying to reach down to
his level. He wants a model
toward whom he can reach.
He doesn't need a father-pal
so much as a real father. Many
fathers, who felt a lack of con
tact with their fathers in their
own. boyhood, tend to overdo
the "pal", role with their sons.
The friendship between father
and young son is a special
sort - not at all the kind that
exists between males on an
equal level. 1 v
A secondary factor in the
way of this relationship is
Barbara's anxiety about it.
There is no chance for natu
ral, spontaneous warmth and
interest to develop as long as
she continues to breathe down
the necks of her husband and
the boy. She must let time
and nature take its course
here.
" The third factor, and pos
sibly the biggest one, is the
uncle's effort to take over the
boy. This man wants the boy
in order to satisfy some self
ish emotional need, and Bar
bara should tell him she has
no intention of giving up her
son. Stanley should be told
his place is with his mother
and the visits to his uncle
must be limited to what is ap
propriate in such a relation
ship. (Copyright 1960, General
