Britain Argues Holly
On letting " Have

BY The AssOsissed Press

LONDON, Mar. 25.-Britain's
House of Commons turned today
to its decisive second-reading
debate and vote on the Churchill
governments proposal to au-

network-with sponsors and adj

AS the MPs prepared to argue
the holly disputed issue, the
British Association of Chambers
of Commerce suggested adver-

a code to keep American-style
huckstering of the planned net
work.

endanger public morals. Church
of England leaders have taken
similar stand.
The Chambers of. Commerce
sent a policy statement to the
postmaster general defending
sponsored TV as IAN inevitable
development" and denying it
would lower public morals.
To preserve and improve"
good taste in advertising and

businessmen and educational
leaders. This would seek to guard
against the introduction of
American-style TV advertising

School Report Card
system al Issue in
Maryland Assembly
BY the Asseeiofed Press

ANNAPOLIS. Md. Feb. 18.-
School report cards were made a
legislative issue yesterday and
before the session is over could
give the General Assembly one
of it's hottest problems.
Report cards already have
ignited an academic fire in Anne
Arundel County. The countv's
delegation handed them to the
Legislature in a bill to require
teachers throughout Maryland to
grade pupils on individual scho-
lastic achievement related to a
recognized standard.
That means the old "A-B-C"
or numerical system. It's
known accidentally as COMPETE
tive marking.
In Anne Arundel a non-com-
petitive style was introduced in
the elementary schools last fall
1t grades a pupils performance
in light of apparent abilities. The
only marks are IS" to indicate
satisfactory work or en- to sug-
gest the youngster needs i'm
provement.
DR.. Davis S. Jenkins, county
superintendent, vigorously favors
the non-competitive method. He
is opposed by a parents school
committee.
Chairman of the committee is
DR.. William S. Shields, educa-
tional adviser to the academic
board of the Naval Academy.
He and DR.. jenkins have traded
sharp words. ..
The Anne Arundel delegates
bill would permit teachers to
evaluate a pupils progress based
upon his estimated capacity or
other criterion" But it would
insist on symbols to identify at
least five levels of achievement,
one of them failure.
