McQulston says the parents and the communities have been enthus iastic in . their acceptance of the special classes for the slow learn ers, But that isn't so for the classes for the gifted child. under the program,) a gifted child has an IQ ol more than 130, and must be interested and, willing to worK. In regular classes, these children often are disciplinary problems and develop lazy work habits. In the Corvallis class, which Is fifth grade group, the kids learn typing, French, the history of num bers and science, plus the regular subjects tor that grade. At Astoria, the system is differ ent. These children are taught only the regular fifth grade subjects, but they are given much more in tensive work in those subjects, in cluding use of lots of reference materials. There are only 12 children in the Astoria class, because that's all who qualified in the town. But in Corvallis, 16 per cent of the fifth graders in town could qualify, or a total . of 45 nunils, Only 21 children could be admitted to the class. - That's an extremely high per centage of bright kids. It's because Corvallis is a college town. Half of the kids in the special class have fathers who are on the Ore gon State College faculty, and sev eral of these children have ultra high IQ's or more than 170. That means they are rated as geniuses. McQuiston said educators don't agree on the classes for elfted children. Some believe they have no place in a democracy, and that state subsidies should be given oniy lor education of the handt capped. . , Other educators think these orient children need special train. tag because they are the leaders of tomorrow. The opponents swer that schools have no business predicting who'll be the leaders of tomorrow. These special ' classes for the brainy children can be' given only in the larger cities, because there aren't nough of these children in uie smaller towns, . H micwuiston estimates there . urn 4,000 mentally retarded children in the state's grade schools who could benefit from special classes. 'The number of gilted children probably is a little., more than halt that many, By the time the 1955 Legislature meets, McQulston probably will have the needed answers so, that tire Legislature can decide whether to put .the program into effect permanently.

DeLap y County Clerk' T' Offers Full Scale By EARL KENT Probably one of the most rapidly developing and, in a way, most unique new enterprises in Klamath County is your YMCA, which main tains its base of oporatlons at 722 Pine. The unique part appears in the fact that the "Y" keeps a full sohedule of activity 12 hours a day six days, a week with only three full time staff, members keeping 700 very exuberant members at least semi-controlled. This, however, be comes somewhat more understand able when you discover there are at present 47 volunteer leaders teach ing classes; leading clubs, and help ing with the athletic department.
