TKI.KVISION INSTRUCTION Children in a

Santa Ana
Via Closed
By WILLIAM COLEMAN
United Press International
SANTA ANA, CALIF. (UPI) -
I he unction or a school is to
teach, not feed."
With that comment, a top
school administrator (or the San
ta Ana unified school district
answered parents who com
plained about the schools' cafe
terias being remodeled into tel
evision classrooms.
Nearly 4,:IA0 tSanta Ana stu
dents are learning by television
under a system begun this year.
This system could become the
largest closed-circuit instruction
program in the world if it is
carried out under present plans.
Plan Program
The National Education Serv
ices has planned a four-stage
program which eventually will
include six closed-circuit chan
nels. They will be used about
nine hours a day by the ele
mentary grades, plus adult edu
cation in the evenings.
Charles Klasck, television di
rector for the school district,
said the availability of funds and
success of the instruction will
determine whether the system
will he developed fully.
Kliisek believes the cost of
television will he offset during
the first year through more ef
ficient use of classroom space,
less expense for visual aids and
fewer teachers.
The cost of the system (or the
first year is $.l75,()i)0, excluding

supplies and salaries for Klasck
and his five-member staff.
Receive Instructions
The children in grades three
through seven receive instruc
tion on such subjects as science,
social studies, music and Span

Police Officers
Submit Resignations
Two Medford police officers,
with a combined total of 19
years' experience in the de
partment, have submitted their
resignations, Chief Charles P.
Champlin has announced.
Leaving the department are
Patrolmen William A. Hall, 124
Washington st., and Robert J.
Allen, 2664 Old Military rd.
"We hale to see them leave,"
Chief Champlin said. It is really
unfortunate to lose men with
that much experience."
Hall, a veteran of seven
years experience on the city
police force, has accepted a
position with Selby Glass com
pany. Allen, who has been with the
department a total of 12 years,
has taken a position with the
Medford post office.
Santa Ana students are learning by television
under a system started this year. lUPI)
watch two 15-minute programs
each day. Several classes use
the multi-purpose classrooms to
gether under the guidance of two
special teachers who expand and
explain the day's lessons after
they have come over the mon
itors. Then the children return to
their own classrooms and spend
the rest of the day in conven
tional education with their own
teacher.
After school, teachers receive
two hours of television instruc
tion each week in economics for
which they are given college
credit.
The special monitors for this
closed-circuit system were man
ufactured by Giannin Controls
Corporation's Conrac division of
Glcndora, Calif.
Few parents have any com
plaints about the system taking
over the cafeterias now that
they have seen the results of this
new concept of teaching the
Santa Ana schools.

THE WEEK IN CALIFORNIA
Tito's Planned Trip Called
Off Because of Attack of Flu
By United Press International
The planned trip to California
of President Tito of Yugoslavia
was cancelled at the last min
ute when the 71-ycar-old Com
munist leader was stricken by
influenza.
Tito was bedridden in Wil
liamsburg, Va., only hours be
fore he was to leave for a visit
to Yosemite National Park and
a week end in San Francisco.
Tito had been invited to visit
by Gov. Edmund G. Brown
when the governor toured Yugo
slavia during his summer va
cation. The invitation had drawn
blasts of criticism from GOP
floor leader in the Assambly
Charles J. Conrad, who said
Brown was guility of "the native
and dangerous belief that the
plight of enslaved millions
would be cased" with Tito's vis
it. Spate of Effigies
As the visit approached, a
spate of effigy hangings occur
red in Fresno, not far from
Yosemite, and in the state cap
itol. Brown, who said he had hoped
to influence Tito with a "good
example of free enterprise" by
showing him the state, said the
demonstrations came from peo
ple who . . . lack confidence in
our democratic system."
Elsewhere, there were these
developments:
Udall: Interior Secretary Ste
wart L. Udall visited the state
to promote his $4.1 billion Pa
cific Southwest Water Plan. An
ticipating at least one major
objection from so - far cautious
water groups in the state, Udall
announced the Auburn dam-Fol-som
south canal project had
been cleared by the budget bu
reau for congressional consider
ation. But almost at the same mo
ment, some of the thunder was
robbed from Udall's announce
ment by an almost identical an
nouncement in Washington by
Rep. Harold T. Johnson, D-Calif.
Udall's announcement was
seen as an attempt to answer
objections that the massive plan
would adversely affect other fed

eral projects in the state. Udall
told the state water commission
and about 500 persons at a
commission meeting that the
plan had not been offered on a
"take it or leave it basis." The
long range plan would use the
resources of five states to meet
demands of dryer regions such
as southern California and por
tions of Arizona.
Trieste: The bathyscaph Tri
este, which recovered debris
from the sunken submarine
Thresher, was headed home to
San Diego from the East coast.
The Trieste made 10 dives in
8.400 feet of water in search
of the Thresher some 220 miles .

129 men aboard were lost. The j
bathyscaph photographed and '
recovered bits of debris from
the sub after making a long
search to locate the hull.
Goldwater: The head of the
California Machinists non-partisan
political league said in Long
Beach that U. S. Sen. Barry
Goldwater, R-Ariz., would "thor
oughly unite all of organized la
bor against him" if he ran for
President.
John T. O'Brien added that
New York Gov. Nelson Rocke
feller was more "appealing" but
that he "just does not deliver
on his liberal promises." O'Brien
and two other labor officials, in
cluding Thomas L. Pitts, secre
tary of the California State La
bor Federation, said labor was
not happy with President Ken
nedy's record but that Repub
licans would lose labor support
in the 1964 election by default.
Right wing: Assemblyman
William Stanton. D-San Jose,
asked the state Public Utilities
Commission to decide whether
a private research foundation
hired by the Pacific Gas and
Electric company, was domi-:
nated by "people with extreme
ly conservative political views."
The company disclosed it had
been paying the company, West
ern Research Foundation, $3,000
a year to screen employees
working on "national security"
projects for possible "subver-

sion." The company said "about
half a dozen" employees had
been so labeled during the 10

investigations.
"I am not condemning right
wing views," Stanton said, "but
I am condemning the possibil
ity that the right wing has cap-
tured a function for providing
information to determine wheth
er anyone can hold a job."
PTir nrncirlont William Pannat
endorsed Stanton's suggestion
