The District Commissioners

estimated 1t would cost Sos, 900
to cover an open portion Of
the underpass between the
circle and @ street NV.
The merchants, who had
pressed a similar proposal sew
eral times in the past. said
there is a serious shortage Of
public parking space in the
neighborhood which is hurting
business.
The Commissioners acted on
a Highway Department recomt
mendation in turning down the
proposal. Highway planners
said the project would be too
costly.
If the proposal had been
approved. meter parking would
have been established on the
affected section over the road

Some time ago. the Engineer

the roohng-over would cost

Able Pupils
Skill Wasted,
.TeuchersToId

The United States is wasting
the ability Of many Of its most
able children. DR.. Paul Witty
Of Northwestern University told
District school teachers yester-
day in the Mcfarland Junior
High School auditorium.
DR.. Witty, an author and spe-
cialist in the field OF gifted
children. told the conference
it is most important for edu-
Gators to recognize talent at
an early age.
He defined the gifted child
as one who most consistently
and repeatedly shows remark
able performance"
Most schools, he said, classify
a gifted child as one who has
achieved an 10 Of $50 or more
on standard tests.
But. he added. the intelli-
gence test alone is not the only
method for recognizing the
gifted child.
There are many children, he
said. with los Of less than
100 who have great potential
gifts.
Some Of those children, he
told the teachers, show their
talents by performing remark
ably in art. music, mechanical
ability or creative writing, even
though their intelligence tests
do not indicate this aptitude.
1T is tremendously import
ant" he said. Ito seek out this
type Of ability and encourage
It,"
I'm an increasingly COMPETE
tive world" he remarked, I'VE
are failing to utilize the talents
of our youngsters"
He cited work being done in
this field in other cities. and
said his own studies have re-
vealed:
/. That the gifted child gen.
orally comes from a good home
environment.
2. That the parents Of the
gifted child usually have far
better than average educations.
3. II u the parents income
also Is usually higher than
average.

Despite all the interest and
research in the methods Of
teaching one to read, no phase
of education is so greatly in
need Of improvement.
This was handed down to
District teachers yesterday by
DR.. Mia Bantpn Smith Of a
New York University reading
clinic. DR.. Smith spoke at a
session on reading. held at Nc
Kinley High School.
DR.. Smith feels reading
should be continuously taught
through college. She adds that
those who have done research
in. reading don't know what
the end point is in reading
achievement"
She .said all the various
methods Of teaching the subject
have some merit and all should
be applied.
DR.. Smith added that teach
|ers should recognize and CON-
mend critical reading. She IL
lustrated this by the story OF
the little boy who questioned
the story he was reading in
which the price Of a bottle OF
milk was ~ cents.
Describing the work at Me-
Kinley with tagging readers
was Royce Van Norman. q
teacher, who said some of theil
10th graders read on I'd or 81
grade levels.
The reasons for the failure
to keep up with others in read
ing were listed by Mr.. Norman
These, he said, were vision trcu-
bles, hearing loss. jerky eye
motion from left to right, vo-
cabulary deficiencies and emo
tional problems.
He said there was a need fol

Had lunch yesterday at

with Arthur Middleton.
Arthur is q third-genera-
ton patent attorney. His
father and grandfather
pursued the same calling
before him. He said:
I'm 1907 my father had to
go to Lisbon.
"He had a client in Balti-
more, a Col. Painter, who
invented the bottle cap and
started the company that
became Crown Cap q Seal.
"You know what / am
talking about, the metal
cap with a layer Of cork in,
it that is on every pop and
beer bottle. 1t was one Of
the most lucrative patents Of
all time.
at led to the popularity
Of bottled beverages and to
a great shortage Of cork. You
see the cork from the cork
oak can be cut only every
IL to IS years.
"But outside every cork
cutting establishment in
Portugal and Spain were
mountains of scrap cork,
Just like sawdust at a saw
mill.
"The company realized
that the solution Of the
problem lay in the use Of
this discarded cork. It's
own experiments with scrap
cork failed. and it offered
81 million for the solution
of the problem. The sub
stance binding the cork
particles must be resilient,
impervious to acid, and it
must not affect the flavor
of the contents Of the bottle.

Mr.. Benedict said he believes
the part Of sex adjustment in

emphasized in sex guidance.
He added that discussion Of
body construction can be woven
into emphasis on the right at

Referring to the "disgraceful'
illegitimacy rate in Washing
ton. he declared conditions
here are very bad and teach
ers know it," He added that
conditions have not been exag-
gerated in the press.
He told the teachers about
pilot projects in sex guidance
within the framework of train
ing for responsible family life
which were conducted last year
by the Social Hygiene Society
at Kelly-Miller Junior High
School and at Cardozo High
School. He said similar projects
viii be carried on this year at

Pointing out that he is "a

men, believe sex is the end of

He told the teachers that the

DR.. Adams referred to the
late DR.. Alfred E. Kinsey's COM

out that DR.. Kinsey said that a

sex experiences earlier in her
