This finding, based ou a group of studies conducted by former graduate students, is reported in the July issue of the Bulletin of the Oregon School Study Council, publish ed by the school of education at the University of Oregon. The studies have been co ordinated and summarized by Dr. Grace Graham, associate professor of education. This "distortion" of elemen tary and secondary education news is of concern to educa tors because "public schools are hurt by unfair critics, im balances in school news, and inaccurate information about schools," Dr. Graham said. Erroneous Information. One study revealed that many attacks on schools, es pecially in the letters to the editor column, were based on erroneous information. "Reckless, immoderate cit izens are lowering the pres tige of teachers in the opin ions of pupils and parents, dis couraging young people from entering teaching, affecting the morale of teachers, and contributing to the defeat of school bond issues," Dr. Gra ham observed. The press is not always at fault, since many schools have not supplied the local papers with the quality of school news that would present a more favorable picture of the school to the public, the edu cator pointed out. "The school s job in its pub lic information program is to present an accurate picture of the school. Its best ally is the press." Dr. Graham wrote. Littl School News One study in a community of 10.000, identified only as X and described as the cen ter of "one of Oregon's larg er school districts," showed that over a four-year period from 1956 to 1960, school news accounted for only 1.3 per cent of the total news printed by the local daily. This study, conducted by Harold Hoyt. now director of the northwest regional office of the general extension di vision department of state wide services in Corvallis, showed that the largest num ber of news stories was in the "general information" cate gory and included meeting no tices, cafeteria menus, and bus schedule..

(UPI) Student Activities Share of News Space form an important service to schools, but tell very little about them, Dr. Graham noted. The next most frequent news stones, which ranked first and second in number of column inches devoted to them, were accounts of ath letic events and student activ ities. Comparison of Stories The study showed that on the average a story on ath letics was nine times as long as a general information news item, five times more frequent and nearly twice as long as a curriculum news story, and 10 times more frequent than a story about the school pop ulation - the numbers of chil dren being served in the var ious parts of trie school's ed ucational program. News about activities were published 30 times fore fre quently than news about the "important problem" of school reorganization, the study showed. Another study, carried out by Dr. H. Irene Hallberg, now with the U.S. department of state, contrasted school news reporting in the Eugene Register-Guard and the Salem Capital Journal for a four week period in the spring of 1958. Only daily issues were studied since the Capital Jour nal does not publish a Sunday edition. The study showed that the Capital Journal devoted more than 2'i times as much space to school news as did the Register-Guard, as well as pub lishing almost twice as many pictures and twice as many articles. More Space to Sports However, the Capital Jour nal devoted "much more space to sports and student activities. When these two cat egories were eliminated, th Capital Journal carried only about 20 per cent more school news than the Guard. This dif ference might have disap peared If the Guard's Sunday editions had been included, the report said. When the news stories were compared with a group of subject-matter categories that educators believe should be included in a well-rounded picture of the schools, "a lar ger percentage of the Salem news items fit the pattern than did those from Eugene," but both newspapers omitted kinds of news that have been found to be of interest to the community, the study show ed. When news of athletics and activities receives more space than "the more essential aca demic work done in schools," the public press may be "un consciously or occasionally de liberately, adding Its bit" to the distorted picture that the public has of its schools, Dr. Tike Scenic Drive to Lake 0, ,h.

He plans to and figures the trip will take amietic and academic pro grams in the schools were in proper balance, almost three quarters of the respondents said no. That those questioned thought the imbalance came from excessive concern with athletics became clear from reactions to other questions in the study, the Bulletin points' out. Sixty-five per cent said that if one or the other received a higher salary, a science teacher deserved higher pay than a coach: 87 per cent thought an outstanding schol ar should be awarded a better scholarship than an outstand ing athlete; and 64 per cent said they would rather see their school excel in the num ber of blue ribbons at science fairs than in athletic trophies. 7' '; : i LL THEY'RE BOTH FAIR Beauty queens Elizabeth Griffith, 22, left, of the Mid-South Fair in Memphis, Tcnn., and Judy Downing, 17, of the San Diego County Fair, insist each is the "Fairest of the Fair." a title each received on coronation.
