arents Avoid
Home Teachinq
For children
By RUTH MILLETT

Here's an explanation of how
to solve the teacher shortage
that comes from a teacher her
self.
"Teaching would be a more
attractive job if parents didn't
expect teachers to take over SC
many tasks that should be done
in the home"
For instance, today's parents
all too often leave the matter OF
discipline up to the teacher, in
stead of thinking Of school dis
cipline as just an extension OF
home discipline. "Thank good
ness Johnny is starting back to
school," the modern parent
signs with relief. "Maybe the
teachers can handle him I GER
tainly can't do anything with
him."
Then there is the matter of
manners. If today's teachers get
a gang of unruly, sassy kids,
their parents decide the teach
ers just don't make the kids re-
spect them. Respect for their ell
ders should be taught at home,
maintains this teacher, and if
children are rude to their par
ents, they'll be rude to their
teachers.
SEX EDUCATION, TOO
And there is a great hullaba-
loo about the duty of schools to
give children sex education,
which is one more instance OF
parents Sinking their response
bility.
One reason teaching is becom-
ing less and less attractive, this
teacher claims, is because the
schools are getting more and
more students whose parents
think the school should give
them their entire education. So
they pour into the classrooms,
ill-mannered, disrespecttul, ig-
norant of all sorts of things they
should have learned at home.

Some players take years to
come to the front as tournament
experts. Some reach the top, on
ly to slide quickly down the
other side of the hill. However,
in the field at the recent ma
tional championships tourna-
ment, there were several play
ers who have been recognized
for many years as great play
ers, and one Of these is T. A.
Lightner Of New York. Teddy
as he is known to bridge play
ers throughout the country, got
a good score on today's hand
when he made four diamonds
doubled.
Dummy played low cn the
opening spade lead, East won
the trick with the jack and re-
turned the king of clubs. When
East continued with the queen
of clubs, Lightner (South) ruff
ed, then picked up the trumps
by cashing the queen, ace and
king of diamonds.
His next play was a small
heart from dummy, East played
low, Lightner won with the
queen and ran the rest of his
trumps. ole was left with the
nine of hearts and the ten and
seven Of spades, while dummy
had the ace and queen of spades
and king of hearts. Remember
that East had doubled, and
Lightner had located the ace of
hearts. Also he was confident
that East held the king of
spades, so at this point he simp-
ly led the nine of hearts. East
had to win with the ace and
lead from the king and one
spade into dummy's ace-Gueen.
giving Lightner his contract of
four diamonds doubled.
