American schools are trying to
educate everybody with a system
basically designed only for the
elite, Dr.. William D. Sheldon,
director of the Syracuse Uni
versity reading laboratory. told
District Division II teachers
yesterday.
At the opening day of a read
ing workshop, DR.. Sheldon said
differences in children-intel-
lectual, emotional, background,
teacher preparation. and the like
account for much of the
trouble encountered in teaching
reading.
In 1890, he said only S per cent
of the available IA to II year
olds attended high school. These
were the elite, and the system
was designed for them. Now rs
per cent of the age group go to
high school, he said.

Redskins Again Sign
End Joe Tereshinski

Joe Tereshinski, versatile de-

eighth season with the Redskins.
General Manager Dick Mccain
announced today.
An auto salesman during the
off season, the rugged Tereshin-
ski for a while wavered between
football and full-time business
career, but Coach Curly Lam
beau decided the matter after
his return here from California.
1--WE need that guy" Lambeau
declared. "He was our best util-
ity man last year and we can't
afford to lose him now"
Lambeau thinks the one-time
Georgia star will be better than
last year if the coach can keep
him at one position for the full
season. In one game last year
Tereshinski played left end, right
end and linebacker on three con-
secutive defensive plays.
Tereshinski, who tips the beam
at 225 pounds and stands
6-foot-2, will share with Hugh
Taylor, offensive end, the dis
tinction of being the two oldest
players in point of service with
the Redskins this year.
