Catching Early Editor's notei A horde of idle youngsters roam the na tlon's streets looking for Jobs that aren t there for them, New ways are being explored to change them from useless minuses into social pluses. By PAUL C. TULLIER Senior Editor, World Book Year Book A mlllon of them are now idle. Millions more will (ol low. What can we do to hold those millions in school? How can we salvage those already out of school? There are no pat answers to the first question. But search for one is under way, "We must catch the would-be drop-out early," says Robert C. Taber, director of pupil placement and counseling for the Philadelphia school sys tem. "By the time a pupil reaches high school, , he has usually decided whether he will finish school or drop out." But, he says, "by start ing in the early school years we stand a good chance of in fluencing and reducing the number of drop outs." The way to "catch" the would-be drop-outs is to rec ognize their symptoms. Some are easy to detect. Playing hookey is one. Tardiness, day after day, is another. A report card filled with low and fail ing grades is a third. But there are other symptoms that are not so easy to spot. Typical examples of such behavior patterns can be found in pu pils who have passing grades but who often daydream in class. Brash youngsters who talk back to their teachers or who are continually bullying their classmates are suspects. Painfully shy students who have little to say either in the classroom or on the play ground need watching. Each in his own way may be flash ing an SOS for help. More and more teachers are on the look out for auch signals. Some times, of course, these traits are found in the gifted child as well as In the drop-out, and teachers are aware of this. Works as Team Once the would-be drop-out is spotted, the school staff closes ranks and works as a team. Youngsters with "be havioral problems" - the shy ones, the aggressive ones, the Insolent ones - are dealt with more understanding. Or they are referred to special ists. Family troubles that are affecting their schoolwork, or even school attendance, are handled by school authorities or turned over to social agen cies. Most of all, the teachers look for the youngster's spec ial Interests. An example of such team work at the grade school lev el, and what it can result in, comes from Robert Taber. "Mary Ann was a shy, retiring girl," says Taber. "She was also a poor student, unable to keep up with her class." In her second year, Taber continues, she was placed in a special class for retarded children. Her teacher worked closely with her, looking for ways to cut through her indif ference. When Mary Ann showed an interest in draw ing, her teacher encouraged her. Soon the conaelor and art director were drawn in. Spec ial Instruction in art was pro vided. The changes in her atti tude soon became evident," says Taber. "The scowl left her face. Her Interest In schoolwork Improved. She re turned to regular classes. She was no longer considered re tarded. . Talent Further Developed Mary Ann's talent was fur ther developed in junior high school. Later, she received high school scholarship. Her academic grades were satis Dennis the Menace &UQOTA urrtE a! DIME AM' I SOTA GSWBIO NICKEL, BUT HERE'S WHATM GOHHH 00 fOK Would-Be Important for Success factory, and, after graduation. she won an art scholarship and subsequently went on to earn honors for herself in the professional field. "Not' every student has special talents lake Mary Ann," says Taber. "But it's a good example of what teach ers and counselors can do to help a child." Almost every school system now has some kind of special program to help backward students. Some, like the one in Cheyenne, Wyo.. are on the lookout for posible poor read ers as early as kindergarten. Other systems have corrective reading courses all the way through grade school into high school. Some cities such at Union City, N. J., and Med- ford, Mass., have introduced special teacher programs to improve reading instruction. Reading ability is one of the foundation stones of a Chicago program designed to help potential drop outs and re claim those already in that category. Known as the Great Cities School Improvement Program, it is one of 10 such projects financed by the Ford Foundation in U. S. cities. The Chicago experiment is a good example of the originality being shown by each of them. Part One is devoted to holding the would-be drop-out in school. It involves pupils 14 years or older who are still in elementary school and al most certain to drop out. Classes are held at the Ste phen A. Douglas School. 'Mail Order Learning New subject matter and new -ways of teaching have been introduced. Two unusual textbooks," for example, have been added to the usual list: the newspaper and the mail order catalog. "The newspaper," says Mrs. Helen Isbltz, assistant principal In charge of the program, "has been called the 'poor man's university.' And because it is an up-to-the-minute record of current events, It is a univer sity In print." As used at the Douglas school, the daily newspaper becomes a tool by which the youngsters improve reading skills, learn to "skim" and improve their vocabular ies They Jearn history through current events. They discover science. They learn practical arithmetic by "shopping" the ads. The classrooms themselves are vioram wun color. i,arge bulletin boards are filled with posters, pictures, and student projects. "We keep their eyes as well as their minds busy," says Mrs. Isbitz. "Blank walls too often encourage daydreaming- ' luxuary these youngsters can't effort." Some classrooms have pictures of Lena Home and Louis Arm strong cheek-by-jowl with Ralph Bunche. "We try to in spire the children with pride of race," says Mrs. Isbitz. We try to raise their sights and encourage them to be lieve that they, too, can amount to something if they will only make the effort. All of these Innovations have paid off. Pupils are rarely bored. Their reading skills have Increased, their vocabu laries have enlarged, and even their way of dressing has im proved. School counselors work closely not only with the children, but also with their parents. Field trips are made to museums, to concerts, to plays. All these forces, com bined, have achieved the main goal of the project. Of 420 youngsters Involved, all have remained in school. Drop-Outs Involved Part Two of Chicago's Great Cities project Involves those who have already dropped out. Headquarters are at the Paul Laurence Dun School Drop-Out bar Vocational High School. Early in 1961, teams of teen age volunteers made a door-to-door survey of the school district, seeking out youths of 16 or over who had dropped out of school.. Later, the youngsters were invited into the project office at Dunbar for personal Interviews and counseling in the after-school hours. "In many cases," says Gil bert Sims Derr, guidance counselor in the special pro ject office, "we were the first persons these people met who took the trouble to listen to them. Moot of their experience had been failure. Many of them couldn't belive that they actually would get another chance to complete their edu cation and learn a trade." Success Reflected A measure of the program's success is reflected in a special needle trades pilot program which was set up by the Board of Education with the cooperation of the Amalga mated Clothing Workers of America, the Illinois State The Medical v High Blood Pressure It is difficult to give an answer of great value to a person who writes, me asking how he should go about treat ing high blood pr es sure. In the first place, there are four types of high blood pres 8 u r e, with v a r y ing de grees of sever ity and impor tance. Many persons with Type I, or perhaps even Type II, can get along so well that they hardly need treatment. This is particularly true of women of 50 or so who can usually live comfortably for many years with a systolic ("top of the wave") blood pressure varying between 160 and 180 mm. , . With the Type III pressure, man usually around 40 or 50, is likely to complain of morning headache or short ness of breath or a conscious ness of his heart action. He may also be getting little strokes or mild heart attacks which are leaving a little res idue of illness. The man may be becoming irritable and hard to get along with. He needs good care if he is to avoid serious illness. Type IV, or malignant hieh blood pressure, is a serious and dangerous disease. Fortu nately, today, it can some times be brought under con trol. These several types of hy pertension can often be dial- nosed in a minute by an eye specialist who will look into the backgrounds of the eyes to see how much change there is in the tiny arteries which supply the retina (the seeing part ot the back of the eye) with blood. He may see what are called tiny "flame hemor rhages" (bleedings) or tiny cotton wool patches." Enjoying Perfect Health Often during the course of the years, I have marvelled over how much hypertension an occasional man or woman will be able to tolerate com fortably enough. I remember a ruddy-faced, strongly-bullt middle-aged woman who, for years, used to come in for check-up of her systolic blood pressure, always over 200 mm. In her 40s, she still could beat her sons at tennis, and as she said, she had absolute ly no symptoms and was en joying perfect health. She was fortunate. Others are not so fortunate; anyone with a systolic blood pressure around 200 mm. is in danger, especially If he la overweight and particularly if he has dia betes. Statistics now show that a combination of hyperten sion, diabetes and overweight must be well treated if heart attacks and strokes are to be avoided.

A 10 week course was given. At its end, 23 of the 24 persons originally enrolled received certificates of completion In the needle trades course. All were placed in jobs. The miss ing 24th had been injured in an automobile accident but planned to continue after re covery. Most important, all 24 had taken steps to com plete their high school educa tion. "This year," says Mrs. Louise Daugherty, director of the Great Cities project in Chicago, "we hope to do even better. We've got to. These youngsters are not just statis tics, or bodies. They're people. They need encouragement; they need sympathy; above all, they need understanding." Nexti The nation alerts it self to the needs of its "citi zens of tomorrow." Reprinted from the 1963 World Book Year Book. Copy right 1963 by Field Enter prises Educational Corpora tion. Roundup (Tex or., vi a rn BmeriiUi ConiulUnt to Medlclnt Mayo Clinic Emtrltui Professor at Mfldtctli Mayo Clinic (RertiMr and Tribtia Syndicate. 1963) have used Reserpine, made from the Indian snakeroot, for most patients with mild hypertension. It usually works well, and lowers the blood pressure,, perhaps enough to help the patient. For a few years, we physi cians tried some powerful drugs which were not entire ly satisfactory because they had a number of unpleasant side-reactions. Also, they could suddenly lower the blood pressure so much that the patient would get dizzy and have to lie down. Last year, a good summary of work with these drugs was given by Dr. Alexander Schirger of the Mayo Clinic and Dr. Ray W. Gifford Jr., of the Cleveland Clinic. Many of their patients, while being treated, complained of weak ness, especially in tne morn ings; many complained of diarrhea, which sometimes was so bad that there was rectal incontinence. Measure Twice Daily As one can see, when a patient is taking powerful drugs to lower blood pressure, it is essential that he learn to measure his blood pressure twice a day. If the pressure should be low, it would be dangerous to take a dose of a strong p r e s s u r e-lowering drug. As the doctors say, this need for constantly watching the blood pressure throughout the day and every day is a serious disadvantage, and ob viously, the new drugs are not yet the ideal ones. What is hopeful is that now, power ful pressure-lowering drugs have been found, and doubt less, in time, still better ones will be synthesized. Recently, Dr. Irvine Page of Cleveland, and his asso ciates, have been getting good results by giving two strong drugs together which can lower a high blood pressure and can keep it down; Dr. Page tells us that even when the hypertension was orig inally severe, if it is kept low for some time, it may stay down after the use of the drugs is discontinued. Most encouraging is the fact that one can see the eye changes clear up. The difficulty with such treatment is that the work should be done in a hospital, where it can be di rected by experts.

Glonning, admin istrative assistant to Dr. E, G. Everett, chief medical officer. Glonning has been active and an official of the Rogue Valley Council on the Aging for several years. He quoted the recent statement by John S. Gleason, VA national ad ministrator. "The dedication of VA em ployees in helping' those in need is well established," Gleason said. "This spirit has been recognized in employees participation in commu n i t y affairs. I hope we will now give, increased support to those communities activities designed to create a new and meaningful life for our senior citizens. The opportunity to use their great reservoir of talent can improve the eco nomic, social and cultural as pects of their lives, and also greatly strengthen our na tion."
