Maron unuasen and Dob Austin find little to smile about while testing their pull-up ability, but Marlene Counsil and Sydne Flournoy apparently think push-ups are a pushover. Alturas Schools Hold Physical Fitness Tests ALTURAS - Modoc County is now finishing its second week of physical filness testing in elemen tary schools throughout the county- For the third year, the county wide testing is being conducted under a program set up in 1960 by Frank Carroll, curriculum di rector, and Roger Ruth, personnel director of the county schools of fice. The fitness program was a first for county schools in Cali fornia and since that time the sta'e has developed a California fitness test. The norms established by Car roll and Ruth compare with the standards set up by the state of fice. Modoc County, however, tests its students from the first grade through high school, while the state testing program calls j for testing from ages 10 through 17. Carroll said the Modoc County program was established as a re sult of requests for a uniform program from county administra tors. "The state law requires 20 minutes of vigorous exercise each day, and we attempted to make the exercise program uniform for all students in all the county schools. Our program called for 10 events at first, which we limited to five as some tests mere ly repeated the testing of identi cal muscles." Students are tested on sit-ups. push-ups, softball throw, standing broad jump, and 50-yard dash. Since the beginning of the pro gram, the results have shown that .students are making a marked im provement in their abilities. In 1961 the top fourth grade girl made a total store of 4182. whilo in 1962 the top fourth grade girl had a total score of 4705. In Wtil the top seventh grade boy scored 4310. and in 12 the top seventh grader scorer 4661. Number one 1961 would not have placed among the first three in 1962. To make a score of 4661, the boy did 72 sit-ups, 27 push-ups, jumped 84 inches, threw a soft ball 193 feet, and did the 50-yard dash in 7.1 seconds. Carroll pointed out that girls in the Modoc County schools do regu lar push ups and not the modified knee push-up. "They develop themselves with the modi fied or knee push-up and then go on to the lull push-up. In speaking of the benefits to the children brought about by the fitness program, Carroll said coaches have reported to him the improvement of the children in team sports. Clint Smith, coach of the Newell Elementary 7th and 8th grade basketball teams told how much difference he had no ticed in the stamina of his team on the basketball courts since the instigation of the training program. "Where previously our team would lag behind during the sec ond half of a game and have to go into a zone defense, our boys can now sustain a full court press throughout the gam c," Smith said. "There is no question in my mind that this physical fitness pro gram has benelited the children tremendously," Carroll said. Legislature Sets Record For Visits The State legislature, n6w Hear ing the end of its session, has set a record for the number of per sons visiting it. the Oregon Slate Highway Department said today. Thus far this year, more than 21.000 persons have visited the Capitol, according to the Highway Department s Capitol Guide Serv ice. Most of these persons have included a legislative session in their visit. -More man 240 school groups totaling more than 12.500 young sters have made Uie tour, plus 85 other groups w ith more than 3,800 persons. These groups, plus some 4.700 individuals, represent the largest number of visitors ever to register with the guide service this early in the year. Legislative years traditionallv draw more visitors than non-legis lative years, but this was changed in 1962 when the exceptionally heavy summer tourist season helped set a new attendance rec ord for the year of 67,385.

Do they print anythin: handed to them and assume it is correct? I'd like your comments and so would others in this town. -DONDE VERDAD Dear Dnndc: Some newspapers verify such facts but most news- papers assume that people are not going to lie about their education. It's disappointing when people arc dishonest hut why are you "in censed?" You've lost nothing and they've gained nothing. This fnci. dent has made the family look ridiculous. Dear Ann Landers: I was in terested in the letter from the mother of a young dentist. He had just begun to practice and several of his relatives went to him for dental care. When he sent them bills for his services they refused to pay. They said they were "helping him get experi ence" and that he should appre ciate their willingness to take a nance on him. You told the mother that a den tal, fee should be discussed with the patient before the work is done relative or not. What about physicians? Both mv husband and I have had sur gery recently. When the bills ar rived we were shocked. We have friends who had similar opera tions and their bills were much smaller. I've alwavs fell it was beneath the dignity of a physician to talk about money, and it would be in sulting to bring the subject up. What about this? - FINANCIAL LY ANEMIC Drar Anemic: There is nothing "undignified" about money. In our society we need money tn live. Hardly anybody barters any more. The cost of surgery should he. discussed in advance. It may be I jmnntsjhle to anticipate compllca-l lions which might make the pro-! cedure more costly but a reason able estimate should he given. And the patient should not hesltalr to Rsk. t Planning a wedding? Leave nothing to chance. Ann Landers' newest hooklet.
