This is not, said Father Goodrich, a problem ter home. He could not adjust to a foster home situation, although he liked it well enough.

Dr. Richard M. Clowes, chief of the division of instruction of the Department of Education, said to day the state had decided that facts of communism should be; taught in the public schools. He told a meeting of county! superintendents of schools that two' committees would be appointed, one of educators and one of lay men, to guide the slate in setting' up such a course of instruction. At an August' meeting of edu cators, the state announced it had decided to study whether a course on communism should be taught in California. "We now have decided that we should go ahead immediately to; prepare a course of instruction to be taught in the school year beginning in the fall of 1962," Clowes told the county super Clowes said Superintendent of Public Instruction Roy E. Simp son already has' asked a number of educators to serve on one 15 member committee and was wail ing for acceptances. He said the "principal responsi bility" of the committees would be to help the department produce a publication or text "for use by school districts that lack resources to develop such material them ; selves." He said "We have in mind a teachers guide on teaching about communism a source book con taining unimpeachable material that a teacher can use with the knowledge that it is authentic and proper for use at the grade level concerned," The second committee. Clowes said, will be made up of noneduca lors and will include "subject mat ter specialists such as political scientists." that they are successful alumni of this great Boys' Town of the West.
