Out on
a Limb
Br BOB WALTERS
Mail Call
The mailbox bore a very
strong resemblance yesterday
to the large can in tne DacK
yard. One contained just
about as mucfy garbage as the
other.
First there was a bank
statement, a document which
didn't exactly make me break
Into tears of joy. Then there
was a "special" offer from a
national magazine. They were
offering a 97-year subscrip
tion for only 15 cents, or
something like that.
A letter from a company
wilier? manufactures car seat
covers told what a wonderful
buy they wereoThey even en
closed a sample of the'amaz
Ing" material, some sort of
Diastic stuff. This particular
firm seems to be of the neveM
say-die school - that's thiy
fourth sample they ve mailed
to me, and I still haven'tore
plled. o
Why should I? A few more
samples, and I'll make my
own seat covers.
All these letters could be
(and were) tossed aside, but
the last communication.made
me sit up and take notice.
It was a bill for $101.90
from a local tire company. Ac
cording to the bill, I had pur
chased on May 25 "four 800-
14 WSW General Tbls Pre
mium" tires. It added kindly
that I would be given a d
count of $2.04 if I paid off by
the 10th. It didn't say the
10th of what.
Most people would have
taken this in stride, but some
how the bill unnerved me
Mainly because I hadn't
bought any tires.
So I called the ffc-m and
relayed the facts to one of the
talesmen, an understanding
gent who told me he knew
the buyer personally and that
the bill had bc-n mailed to
the wrong Bob Walters.
"Don't worry about it," he
laughed. "Just tear up the bill
If you'd like to."
I assured him I would like
very much to tear it up, and
proceeded to do so. If he
stayed on the line long
enough, he may huve heard
the first rip.
There must be a mural
there somewhere.
Don't tread on me?
United Press Internation
al reported yesterday that
366 persons were killed in
traffic accidents In the
United States during the
Memorial Day week end.
That is an awesome total
Indeed.
But if you look at it from
a positive angle, you Snay
find It's not quito so fright
ening, o
After all, there were
about 169,999.634 survivors.
The Circle Thcntcr program
aired by the locnl TV station
last Wednesday night was well
done from start to finish, but
it contained at least one hu
morous blooper.
At the climax of a court
room scerj, the judge, who
had a relatively small part,
looked sternly at the defend
ant.
"Louie Decker," he said,
"I find you guilty of rarmed
obbery."
Murderers, kidnapers and
enemy spies are bad enough,
but it's those rarmed obbers
you have to watch.
They'll rami your obb be
fore you know it.
Society Editor Ogve
Starcher thinks there's
something missing in my
psychological makeup be
cause I don't share her pas
sion for flowers. The other
day she became so excited
about it that she accused
me of being the type of guy
who squeezes hitoothpasle
tube in the middle.
That happens to be true,
but I'd like to say in self
defense that Mrs. S. alio
has a quirk.
She can't remember her
phone number.

ccives ninth graders from all

elementary and junior high
curriculums. Therefore, work

three to five years to com

Teacher's Role
Becaek.he curriculum is
the sum total of classroom and
school activities, it is shaped
and made effective py the
classroom teacher, ('ho plays
a major role. Not only is the
curriculum affected by the
teacher but, in all probability,
the clasroom eacher is the
most important persoi(j)in the
total curriculum study and
improvement process. O
Over-all curriculum plan
ning, involving the selection
of policies and paterns, should
be done by joint action of
teachers, principals and the
superintendent, Meyer said.
Teazling guides nd mater
ials may be provided by many
workers, but ultimately one
person, the classroom teacher,
must accept the responsibility
for directing the learning of
the student.
Meyer said the curriculum
is the link betwen the child
and the educational iStSl'y of
the school, and, normally,
there icna cb,v.n?ntLdisagree
or make recommendations in
regard to the school's philos
ophy and it's curriculum, pol

cause it is necessary to decidQ
on the school's objectives, and
then determine what learning
experiences will best achieve
these objectives. The exper
ience for teaching and learn
ing omust be organized and
constant judging and evalua-
t on is neccssarv to ascertain
Qhether the objectives are at
tained.
Easy Formula
The superintendent said the
fornQila is easy but getting
the formula into oj&ration is
difficult.
It is hoped that the objec
tives taking in all areas could
develop a group of citizens
who would have civic compe
tence, educational and mental
development, social under
standing, occupational effici
ency, home loyalty, religious
consciousness and leisure time
opportunities.
In the development of any
curriculiuu, Meyer said there
must be a definite philosophy
and also objectives.
After the meeting, teachers
were assigned in designated
groups according to grades
with the following teachers
appointed as chairmen: MrsJ
,uniiu ruuiv, in si Kiduu, mis.
Marie Brannock, second
grade; Mrs. Susan Ambrose',
third grade; Mrs. Barbara
Charles, fourth grade; Mrs.
Wes Claflin, fifth grade; Mrs.
Viola Laird, sixth grade; Mrs.
Ruth Broomfield, seventh
grade; and Waller Doherty,
eight grade.
Tentative Guides
They were asked to start
work in two areas, language
arts and arithmcti". and in
structed to write abiiut what
they arc doing during the six
weeks period in both of the
mentioned areas. These are to
be tentative guides before a
(Ofinite course of study can
be developed. These outlines
will be used for a 3ial and
error period. It was pointed
out that during this period
teachers might find that a
more flexible time schedule
for the several lessons or units
within certain subject areas is
necessary.
Also it might be possible
that too many unijj or lessons
were included for a given sub
ject or that the sequence of
introducing should be altered.
Teaching materials including
films and books should be
brought up to date with spe
cific emphasis on the availa
bility of materials.
Meyer said the same basic
materials, objfjtives and phil
osophy in each grade and
school throughout the district
will be used. He said we must
identify ourselves more with
District 6 and less as individ
ual schools.
