The dinner and the Unique Training For Handicapped New York-OJPD-Dr. Saburo Shochl, who runs a small but enlightened school for handi capped children In Fukuoka Japan, says fresh air and sun shine play a big part in his plan to give the children their rightful place in society. After a 40-day observation of institutions in 12 Amerl can cities, Shochl said the methods of therapy and ifr struction.he has developed in the last nine years are in many respects more advanced than in the United States. For example, American schools do most of their work Indoors, he said. "I prefer the outdoors," he told UPI. "I believe the warm air and sunshine can do so much for the children." In his school for cerebral palsy cases - Shiinomi Gaku en - Shochl has ruled out blackboard instruction and writing with pencil and pa per. Children are required to write with their fingers on sand to teach them to use the fingers, improve muscu lar coordination and reduce frustration over lack of con trol. "We also encourage them to write and draw pictures on the ground with small sticks," he said. Sochi said American hos pitals tend to spoil child pa tients by using too many braces and wheelchairs and by over-protecting them in general. "It may sound cruel," he said, "but In Fukuoka we train them to the sense of touch. If they can't walk they must crawl. This gives them confidence."
