|Pardoe Heads
March Of Dimes

Less than half the Districts
most vulnerable age groups slIs-
ceptible to polio have been vac
cinated. the District Chapter.
National Foundation for Infan-
tile Paralysis. said yesterday, in
Announcing the new head Of the
1857 March of Dimes here. He
is Edward S. Pardoe. GALS
Shadow road, Kenwood. Md, re-
tired transit official.
His appointment was made by
Elwood H. Seal. chapter chair
man. Chief Justice Earl War;
lren is district chairman.
Mr.. Pardoe said: THE rate
lof individual vaccination among
teens and young adults is lag
ging badly here. The vaccine
doesn't give an ounce of pro-
lection while it's sitting in store
rooms or on warehouse shelves.
Our 1857 March of Dimes theme
Iof Let's Finish the Job has the
dual purpose of inspiring in
Idividual initiative among all Of
us to see our physicians at once
and start our series Of three
polio shots"
The chapter said indications
are that less than rs per cent
of the teen-agers have begun
their series Of three shots. 1t
pointed out the School Health
Service of the District Health
Department reported it has ad-
lministered shots to So per cent
Iof the teen-age school enroll
Iment.
In contrast, more than 80 per
cent of the pre-school and ele-
mentary pupils in the District
have received polio shots, either
Through the School Health Serv-
lice or private physicians. This is
believed to be one Of the best
lrates in the Nation, the chapter
said.

Westinghouse
Tangled
BY the Associated Press

A bothersome time study is.
sue bobbed up again today tc
complicate Government efforts tc
settle the l28-day Westinghouse
Electric Corp. strike.
James B. Carey, president OF
the striking International Union
of Electrical Workers QUE), said
he wants assurance that If other
strike issues are settled, there
would be some way to resolve the
time study question at the end
OF a 90-day period.
But negotiators for Westing-
house maintain they agreed to
postpone the time study issue
with an explicit understanding
they were not committed to ar
bitration or any similar method
OF solving it in the future.
The IUE wants the right to
appeal to a neutral any COM
pany -ordered job changes result
ing from the time study. West
inghouse insists such decisions
are solely for management.
Approximately $1,000 West
inghouse workers have been idle
more than four months. The
walkout has substantially halted
the company's civilian output,
though most defense work is con-
tinuing. About 10000 of the
workers are represented by the
United Electrical Workers Union
(UE).

can Association of School Ad-
ministrators:
Because of dissatisfaction
with the results of strictly pho
netic approaches to reading, the
English-speaking countries of
New Zealand. Australia, England
and Scotland are discarding such
limited approaches in favor of a
balanced program of word recog-
milton such as is used in most
schools of the United States"
\ Prof. Bond added that even "in
France and other countries with
languages that are far less pho
netic than English, teachers are
finding that in order to develop
the fluent. meaningful reading
ability that is needed today they
must discard the strictly pho
netic instruction of the past"
Flesch Controversy
A controversy over the pho
netic method was set off last
year by Rudolf Flesch's book
why Johnny Can't Read" Mr..
Flesch commended that reading
