BALLOU FLAYS
DEFECT DELAY

If DR.. Frank w. Ballou, super
intendent of schools, had his way
pupils in the local schools would
be "flunked" for failure to rem
edy a remedial physical defect"
The school official made this
revelation yesterday at a meeting
of the board of education in COM
menting on a resolution of the
MT. Pleasant Citizens Association
recommending that "all remedial
defects be remedied before a
pupil is permitted to pass from
one grade to another"
DR.. Ballou pointed out that he
had made this point about 10
years ago, but at that time pub
lie opinion wasn't ripe" for the
suggestion.
The resolution from the citi-
zenS association also asked for
complete physical examination
of all public school children,
which school officials have been
advocating but for which the Dis
trict Health Office says there is
not sufficient funds.
