MEDFORD PUBLIC SCHOOLS EDUCATION: glasses Medford. TUESDAY, OCTOBER D.C., for a special report con ference April 30, May 1 and 2, in 1964. There were as many women as men attending the Western States conference in Salt Lake, she stated, and she found that Jackson county's record in the Operation Support program for promotion of President Ken nedy's legislative goals was one of the best. Praise Duncan Many words in praise of Congressman Robert B. Dun can from Jackson county also were heard at the conference, according to the Christians, who renewed friendships they had made in Washington when they attended the inaugural. They referred particularly to their conversation with Kenneth Holum, assistant secretary of the interior for water and power. They sat with him at the luncheon. Holum said Dun can's work has been "outstand ing in the area of water and power and that his debate on the floor of Congress was marked by courage and indus try, unusual in such a new member," Mrs. Christian quot ed from her notes. - She also mentioned the com ments made by Congressman Compton I. White Jr., of Idaho, and Sen. Frank E. Moss, of Utah, who said they considered Duncan one of the "most out standing men in Congress" and that his colleagues, particularly those who have sat with him on committees, are looking to him for "able leadership in the fu ture." Mrs. Christian will eive her official report of ,he conference to the Eleanor Roosevelt League at an early meeting. As women participate more in politics and other areas of public life, she said it was em phasized at the conference, they must assume a more respon sible attitude toward the press. If they expect good publicity, she quoted the advice, they must give complete coverage oi meir meotings to tne news papers and other media. CHILLY?

Oregon Schools Draw Criticism CORVALLIS (UPI)-A spokes man for the State Bureau of Labor Monday criticized Oregon high schools for not sufficiently preparing its graduates for jobs. Ray Ziegler spoke on the opening day of the two-day fall Conference of the Oregon As sociation of Secondary School Principals at Oregon State Uni versity. Ziegler told the principals that "25 per cent of your students go on to college and are well pre pared but the 75 per cent who do not go to college are not ade quately prepared for jobs." "Teachers should get out and talk to the men who run their community's business and in dustry to find out what they want their employees to be trained in, he said.
