State 8 ciiools 'Tool Up' To Begin Unique Oregon Program Salem -UIPD- Oregon schools are "tooling up" to use the unique Oregon program. The $3.5 million Ford Foundation grant program is being launch ed in many Oregon schools this fall. In a progress report for United Press International, Oregon program director Al len Lee of the state depart ment of education said agree ments have been signed with most of the 25 school districts and all but one of the eight colleges that will participate. Already, Lee said, some 20 school districts and private Oregon colleges not included in the program have asked to join. But, he said, the program will be limited at first to the original schools. In three or four months, he said, some ad ditional schools may be in cluded. "Right now we're swamped." Of the colleges slated to be in the program only Pacific university has not yet signed an agreement. Lee said a con ference with the school will be scheduled soon and an agreement signed. Working with Pacific will be four elementary and hish school districts in Forest Grove and Hillsboro. These district agreements will be made after the university is ligned up. Contracts with two districts Coos Bay and Coquille to work with Oregon State university still are pending. Districts in Beaverton and Corvallis already have con tracts with OSU. Colleges signed up besides OSU are the University of Oregon, Portland State col lege, Southern Oregon college, Eastern Oregon college, Lin field university and Oregon College of Education. These colleges will work with districts in Eugene, Beth el, Roseburw, Springfield, La Grande, Pendleton, Milwau kie, Portland (including Da vid Douglas), Medford, Mc Minnville, Dallas, Lake Os wego, Salem and Slayton. Reed college is working in the intern program with the Portland schools under a sep arate grant. The new program seeks to improve teacher training and to modernize curriculums in local school districts.

McNa mara, briefing senators on world trouble spots including Cuba, said Wednesday tht United Stater can handle any Soviet military challenges. McNamara and Secretary of State Dean Rusk provided what was described as an op timistic assessment of U.S. strength to a Joint meeting of the Senate Foreign Rela tions and Armed Services committees. The session lasted three hours, and much of the dis cussion centered around the mounting Cuban crisis caused by the Soviet buildup there. One Republican senator, George D. Aiken of Vermont, said afterwards he was a "lit tle discouraged" about both the world situation and Cuba. But Chairman J. William Fulbright (D-Ark.) and Armed Services Chairman Richard B. Russell (D-Ga.) said they agreed with the generally op timistic tone of the briefing. Rusk and McNamara, how ever, both warned that the Free World faces a long, con tinuing struggle with the So viet bloc. Russell said "I have never had any occasion to doubt that we have the potential to de stroy Russia and nobody knows that better than the Russians." Not all of the senators ap peared satisfied with U.S. policy toward Cuba and many voiced concern about the situation. THIS 5-CYCLE MAYTA Gives you MORE work-saving features and MORE dependability!

Regional Edition MEDFORD Page 2-A Tribune MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 6. 1962 v.4 -k&, fSStt "Everyone who has become familiar with the program," he said, "has embraced it with open arms." Almost no reluctance to accept it has been encountered from school administrators and school boards. Lee said the emphasis of the first year will be on train ing local teachers to supervise intern teachers. "Several score" of supervisors will be schooled at a series of work shops planned around the state. The interns, who will spend one of their five college years teaching under supervision, earn $3,200 to $3,600 if they HIT-RUN ON HORSE Madison, Wis. - (UPD - Police today were looking for a hit and - run horseback rider. James Schrocder found a dent in the fender of his parked car Wednesday and pinned on the windshield was a note saying a brown horse with a young rider struck the car and then galloped off. work full time. None will teach less than half time. The supervising teachers face a tougher job with the interns, Lee said, than with the cadets the interns are re placing. The interns will re ceive a greater amount of direct supervision from their college and from local super visors. About 35 interns will start teaching this year, he said, but the number will grow to 200 300 in three years. While the intern portion of the program is growing cadets also will train. No significant changes yet have been made, Lee said, in college teacher training cur riculums. The Oregon pro gram calls for college train ing to shift toward the liberal arts and away from tradition al "methods" courses. The practical experience of internship, Lee said, will eliminate the need for some of the standard courses He said Dr. Bill Ward of the Southern Oregon College education department has taken a year's leave of ab sence to work with the eau cation department and the colleges on curriculum. A definite willingness by colleges to discuss and make changes has been noted, ne said. The proposed changes are, after all, he said, those that many educators in colleges have been wanting to make for a long time. The entire Oregon program is, he said, a collection of edu cational changes made pos sible by the Ford grant. If they are successful, he said, Oregon education will move a generation aneaa in a lew short years. SHIP IT LASME to ei tram Oakland, Sin Fran cieco, Les Angilce and other California peintl.
