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.

Federal Funds for Urban Renewal Hit
GEARHART (UPI) - Use of
federal funds to "hail out"
downtown merchants was blast
ed in a talk here Wednesday by
William H. 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,
