Juvenile Delinquency
Is Topic of Meeting
Panelists discussing prob
lems of juvenile delinquency
at a recent meeting of the Mc
Loughlin Parent-Teacher As
sociation agreed that recogni

Parents and Teachers. After
brief opening statements, the
audience also took part in the
discussion.
Dr. Cloer said that studies
made recently in Chicago in

somewhat lax in recognizing

the pre-delinquent, or at least
in doing something for them.
Such symptoms of trouble are
usually apparent to those who
see the child often, and early
treatment could prevent a
"blow-up" caused by a build
up of frustrations (lack of par
ental care, difficulties with
studies, loss of a loved one.)
Later discussion concerned
the role of cars in juvenile
actions. Chief Champlin stat
ed that he did not necessarily
approve raising the legal driv
ing age to 18, but felt that it
might help some parents con
trol their child's activities.
In a brief business meeting
a nominating committee in
cluding M r s. Walter Olson,
Berl Cox and Mrs. Donald
Coltrane, was elected. A rum
mage sale to be held in Feb

wool broker and goes daily
from Tonbridge to London by
train. She said the English
people also are not so organiz

thing similar in Japanese. The

Curriculum
Reviewed By
Teachers
Central Point - The im
proved and expanded curric
ulum at Crater High school,
Central Point, was outlined
at a Parent-Teacher associa
tion meeting January 24.
About 75 parents and teachers
attended.
Instructors explained the
change in emphasis which has
taken place during the last
four years and showed how
Crater has adjusted its cur
riculum accordingly. Robert
Bayiey spoke on mathematics,
Bill Russell, English, Mrs.
Frances Willetl, home eco
nomics; Leonard Warren, so
cial studies; Ogden Kellogg,
science, and Mrs. Barbara
Tomlinson on foreign lan
guages.
After these presentations.
Charles Meyer, superintend
ent, gave a more comprehen
sive view of the curriculum
change, which coordinated
ideas of the preceding s i x
teachers, showing the total
district policy.
He discussed trends in cur
riculum, which included the
use of teaching teams, closed
circuit television, readers for
bngllsh teachers, and a more
flexible program replacing
prescribed semester courses.
He pointed out that these
ideas are in the experimental
stage and should be watched
closely, evaluated critically,
and adopted by District 6 onlv
if and when they prove prac
tical.
Mr. Meyer stated that the
concern is moving back to
quality in education, rather
than quantity. This will lessen
the emphasis on an extreme
variety of offerings and switch
it to the evaluation of teach
ing methods and teacher loads,
Ho emphasized throughout his
presentation the fact that cur
riculum must always remain
a "study" and be open to
cnange whenever needed.
