School Racial
Sought

House District Committee in.
vestigators want school officials
to provide a racial breakdown
on pupil assignments to the Dis
trict's new four-track high
school course of study.
Counsel William Gerber asked
for the racial data in connection
with the current school investi-
cation he is conducting for a
special subcommittee.
School officials said they might
have to wait until after schools
open September 10 to supply the
data because it hasn't been
recorded.
The new course of study, being
introduced for 10th graders this
fall, includes an honors category
for brightest students, a general
college preparatory group, a
noncollege and business group
and a new basic program with a
stress on remedial work.
The Star disclosed some time
ago an estimate by DR.. Carl F.
Hansen, assistant superintend-
ent. that 800 youngsters would
be on the top track, LAO on the
college one, l,410 on the general
one and 1,700 on the basic.
