Newspaper Page Text4 B SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1963 MEDKOKD MAIL TRIUL'NE, MKbl OItl), OREGON One Direction of Education Noted in Goldhammer Talk One of the directions educa tion is taking today was indi cated by Dr. Keith Goldhammer of the bureau of education re search, University of Oregon, here last week. Speaking before the Citizens' Advisory Committee on Educa tion of Medford School District 549C, Dr. Goldhammer said any building program recommended by the committee should include consideration of maintaining the holding power now prevailing in the system. He was referring to the low drop out rate here compared to tne state ana national averages. The facility to keep in school students who otherwise may drop out is a direct result of the broad program offered in the district, Dr. Goldhammer noted. Reviews Possibilities This program was discussed in a review of possibilities the com mittee has in offering recom mendations to the school board on a solution to the secondary school problem in the district. Dr. Goldhammer discussed what educators call the "house plan" in a large school and the j 6-2-2-2 plan. Bom possionuies, he said, would help maintain the program now offered, especially in the vocational education field. The vocational education pro gram has been one of the major factors contributing to the low drop out rate in the system. It has been expanded during the years to include an extensive program for junior high school students. Should Be Retained Dr. Goldhammer said this should be retained. In discussing the 6-2-2-2 plan, he said the high quality program offered 7th and 8th graders could be maintained in the two junior high schools since the program already is there. The same is true for the 9th and 10th grades, which, under the 6-2-2-2 plan, would use the present senior high school struc ture. Academic and vocational facilities would be maintained in the program. A completely new and equip ped plant would be provided for the 11th and 12th grades, thus enhancing the overall program of the district. Dr. Goldhammer argued against cutting back the voca tional training program offered in the 9th and loth grades, since he believes it inspires the stu dent to seek academic courses which would help in his vocation al training. Cites An Example As an example, he cited a case in which a ninth grader, inter ested in certain vocational courses, may take algebra be cause it would help him, but oth erwise would not take it. This type program provides some thing for the less academically Inclined. The breadth of the program could also be maintained in a "house plan" arrangement, Dr. Goldhammer said. He said he has visited schools in the east with as many as 3,000 students, but through adminis trative reorganization, students were divided into "houses," or schools within the school. Newtown, Mass., High school has such a plan in which four grade levels of students are as signed lo a house and remain there until graduation. Yet, each student has the advantage of the entire school plant facility, and would have classes anywhere in the complex. Tlie house plan may be or ganized in a single building, or in the campus-type school plant. Along the lines of vocational education, Dr. Goldhammer pre dicted a resurgence of interest in agricultural programs in high schools. Vocational agriculture courses are offered in many high schools, but mostly in pre dominantly rural areas. In Metropolitan Schools Dr. Goldhammer snid agricul ture courses, in the future, may need to restudy the attitudes concerning agricultural pro- grams in the public schools. In connection with the 6-2-2-2 plan, Dr. Goldhammer said, con sideration should be given to post high school education should the committee seriously consider the plan. He said post high school educational offerings could be worked into the 11th and 12th grade program by add ing another grade or two. A college-type class arrange ment could be developed for the 11th and 12th grade group with proper planning and orientation, he said. Increased counseling services also probably would be increased. Would Avoid Four-Year In answer to a question, Dr Goldhammer said he probably would recommend avoiding a four-year high school plan if there were a better plan. He said he has become disen chanted with the four and six- year high school plan chiefly be cause the youngest pick up unde sirable habits from the oldest children. He pointed out the hab its may not be bad, but are quite undesirable for junior high school age children. The 6-2-2-2 plan would reduce the age range in each building, he noted, and because of this Dr. Goldhammer indicated lie fa vored the 6-2-2-2 plan over a four or six-year high school plan. The Prime Concern Whatever plan is recommend ed by the committee, Dr. Gold hammer pointed out that the prime concern is to provide the best possible educational oppor tunities for the children. Med ford has done a fine job in pro- j viding this opportunity, he add- ! ed. ; But the quality program, : which has been recognized throughout the state, is provided for less money in this district than a similar program would cost in other districts. Even with i the greatly increased enroll ment, he noted, the program has not suffered, but has been broadened. The district, he said, is re ferred to as a "lighthouse" dis trict, one to which other dis tricts in the slate look for lead ership in quality and economy. Split Threatens Tax Bill Delay WASHINGTON (UPI)-A split In the ranks of the liberal Dem ocratic members of the Senate Finance committee may en danger chances for prompt healings on the House-passed $11 billion tax cut bill. President Kennedy has urged swift action on the measure the largest tax reduction in the nation's history so that it can lake effect by Jan. 1. If Senate hearings take as much time as expected the measure probably will not come to a vote until next spring. The squabble over a Senate "slowdown" on the bill burst into the open Thursday when some Democrats demanded quick finance committee action on the measure. Son. Vance Hartke (D-lnd.) triggered the exchange when he tuld the Senate he would offer a motion at the next meet ing of the finance committee to begin hearings al once and limit them to 30 days. Sen. Albert Gore (D-Tonn.) quickly notified the Senate he would resist "administration pressures for a rush job" on the bill, which he charged was riddled with loopholes favor able to big taxpayers.

Book, former vice president of the Indianapolis, Ind., Chamber of Commerce. Book spoke to the 12th annual Better Business Relations con ference sponsored by the Port land Chamber of Commerce. ln a talk entitled "Uncle Sam Co Home," Book said the use of federal urban renewal funds, originally intended for slum clearance, now has become a means of rescuing downtown merchants who will not do the job themselves. He said he approved of feder al spending for such projects as rivers, harbors and highways, but did not think the govern ment had any business clearing slums, or building playgrounds and golf courses. He said those problems should be solved lo cally. Talks on Fishing Rights Recessed TOKYO (UPI) - Japan re. quested and Canada and the United States agreed Friday to recess their negotiations n e r o over fishing rights for salmon and halibut in the rich North eastern Pacific fishing wounds. The foreign ofice said Friday's meeting was called off at Ja pan's request in order that it might have more time to study U.S.-proposed .nodiflca lions to the draft of a new fish eries convention. The talks, which have been held behind closed Utors, will resume Monday, 0 O 2?
