Scuking at the January region- il evangelism conference of the C&MA in Portland, he said that anli-Communist forces are mak ing headway among the mountain people of South Viet Nam. "The only encouraging aspect of the fighting that Vve seen in lour and a half years is the work f the American Special forces, Newman added. 'Their program is working in the central mountain areas. Tlie tribal people, who are much like the American Indians, will light lo defend their own villages and homes. And they are much im pressed by tlie fact that Ameri cans arc w ilhng to fly over guer rilla-Infested jungles by night to reinforce their hamlets when the Communists attack " The American Special Forces live in the jungle among the trib- il people ami train them in using guns, wlncn nad occn iornnnien until the Communists began infil trating. Working in groups of 12. the ASF teams include two medics. Newman works with the moun tain people from headquarters at Dalat, approximately 2U0 miles northeast of Saigon.

By CHARLES G. WOODHOUSE Klamath Union High School "If girls can be helped in the home county, Ihey should not be sent to an institution like Hill crest. Catch them early and pre vent trouble before it has a chance lo develop," stated Mar jorie McBride, superintendent of Hillcrest State Training School for Girls at Salem, in an address at a meeting of the Klamath Falls Classroom Teachers Association at Mills Auditorium Feb. 14, "How long am I going lo be Jiere?" "Why can't my boy lriend visit me?" "Why can t I wear jeans?" Questions like these are part of the daily routine at Hillcrest. With an average en rollment of 140 girls (capacity 1531 whose referrals from the ju venile agencies of the state's 36 counties constitute the main ob jective at Hillcrest, each case is in individual problem. "In no way is Hillcrest a penal institu tion," said Miss McBride, "ralh- it is a place to rehabilitate girls to help them achieve for themselves a normal, happy, and fruitful life." Besides the Hillcrest School at Salem, there are three other in stitutions for girls in Oregon. The White Shield Home, operated by the Salvation Army, and the Louise Home, botli in Portland, aid distressed girls, mostly, un wed mothers. The Villa St. Rose, ilso in Portland, provides help for girls but will not accept preg nancy cases. Hillcrest is non selective, accepting girls, 12 to 18 years of age, mainly involved in truancy, incorrigibility, and sex offenses. Newcomers to Hillcrest are. placed in the intake section for nterviews and counseling before being assigned to a cottage. About 0 per cent of these girls come from broken homes, and the rest ome from places where adoption nd guardianship methods have failed. Legally, girls at Hillcrest can be kept unlil they are 21 but Ihey rarely are. There arc no col- religious, or racial barriers. nd all are treated on equal terms and arc given equal oppor- unities lo earn privileges. Some girls come with complete dosiers lo aid Hillcrest officials, and oth ers have scant records for coun seling and guidance. All are given omplele training and counseling services, and in the most dis urbed cases psychiatric serv ices are available. Adjustment to oneself and (o. society is tlie key to the program it Hillcrest. Operating on a 12- month basis Hillcrest has a staff: of 120 which includes office per sonnel, housemothers, and other employes, Including a teaching staff of 12 who instruct and coun sel in grades seven through 12. More is accomplished in a school of this type because there is 24 hour control over students, and asses are smaller. According to Miss McRridc, school work is fully accredited, allowing trans ferees from Hillcrest to continue school work anywhere in the tale. The overall program at Hill crest attempts to deal with col lective problems among the girls themselves and with the individu al differences of girls whose IQ sometimes rate as low as "0 to !KI. Suorvising and training an average total enrollment of 140, and sometimes this ligure reach cs 200, is time-consuming ann exacting in the various aspects of juvenile readjustment. Reh gious counseling is done on both the Catholic and Protestant basis, and weekly conferences, some times in groups but more often individually, are part of the train ing program. There are four pro fessional counselors on campus and four off. Of course, privi leges have to be earned; week end passes and "open-cottage" rights (unlocked doors) prove worthy goals for the girls. Graduates" of Hillcrest are supervised by the school for two months after leaving. Returnee rates vary, but the average of those who come back to Hillcrest 14 to 24 per cent. In some instances, girls have sought re- admission because of their fear of the outside. A high percentage of dismissals from Hillcrest return to their own homes fully adjust ed; others are placed in private homes as domestics, in hospitals, or in responsible positions. The school operates on state funds, and any contributions are re turned to reimburse the slate. Visitors are allowed and encour aged as part of the program. With a look to the future Miss McBride declared that the pro gram at Hillcrest can be most effective when the public under stands the purpose of the school and when trainees are accepted as normal people seeking equal rights and opportunity in society. The public can help by sending castolf clothing suitable for teen age girls, and articles like skirts, sweaters, blouses, and coals are needed constantly. Donations should be sent to the Hillcrest State Training School for Girls, Salem, Ore. When Ihe front door opens, the back door also opens." With this statement Miss McBride em phasized the ever-present, grow ing problem of dealing with girls who are constantly being admit ted and released at Hillcrest. Miss McBride was introduced by Mrs. Dorothea Buck, state chairman of the Oregon Associa tion of Juvenile Advisory Coun cils. Mrs. Anne Overman, former ly on the staff at Hillcrest and president of the Klamath Falls Classroom Teachers Association, was instrumental in bringing Miss McBride here where she also ad dressed many other civic groups .
