Holt Asks Help
In Keeping Ohio
Pupils In School

COLUMBUS-E. E. Holt, Sup
erintendent of Public Instruction,
is asking Ohioans to cooperate in
the Stay-in-School campaign, a ma
tional project urging potential high
school "dropouts" to invest in
themselves by returning to school
this fall.
In Ohio about IS percent of
those who enter high school finish.
In many other states, however, the
percentage is not that high. Recent
figures, on the national scale, show
that about 40 percent of the stu
dents who enter high school drop
out before graduation.
Our holding power has increas-
ed Al per cent in the past five
years. said Mr.. Holt. This fall we
will have approximately 74,139
seniors. In 1945 there were 1888
first graders so somewhere along
the line we lost AZ, ,780 students. OF
course some of this group moved
out of the state but in the mean
time other students moved in so
that doesn't explain the situation.
Educators throughout the country
are confronted with the "dropout"
problem and the reasons why are
as numerous as there are people to
give them"
In asking the cooperation of
Ohioans in the Stay-in-School
campaign, Mr.. Holt called atten-
tion to the fact that during World
War II about 100000 young mer
were rejected for military service
because they could neither read
nor write. Further ammunition for
staying in school is provided in this
fact-the minimum educational re-
quirement for all II shortage oc-
cupations" listed recently by the
Department of Labor is at least
four years of high school educa.
ton. And, as a part of your sales
campaign, remind youngsters that
diplomas open doors. The 18th
grade adds S466 in average annual
income. The three previous schoo
years each adds an average o.
S238.
Employers can help too," sale
Mr.. Holt, "by encouraging theil
summertime employees to return
to school and get ready for tomor'
row."

There are 1,101 districts partici-
pating in the school bus program.
Frank D. Cochran, supervisor
of transportation for the State
Department of Education, noted
that school bus drivers have a
very high rating in safe driving.
BUS drivers, he said, "are as
cautious and careful in protecting
the lives of their school passen-
gers as they are with their own
families. Over a years time the
drivers and pupils get to be
friends amounting practically to
a mutual admiration society"
The average operating cost per
pupil was S25.11 and the total
operations plus bus payments was
$1,000 per pupil.
Mr.. Cochran had one final Bit
of advice to motorists when you
see that school bus coming be
unusually careful. Even though
there are certain state regulations
there's always the human factor
of youngsters dashing without

Gridders See Much Work For 1857
Season As Graduates Are Missed

The West jefferson football
team has rapidly fallen down hill,
their chances for claiming the first
Darby Valley League Champion
ship have failed, due to the injur-
les of players.
Injuries have forced Roughrider
Mentor Randy Buckman to find
requirements for all but one of his
regular backfield Jim Hocken-

only one that is still ready to play.
Following is a run down on the
condition of the team. Gail Peter

ed tendon in his ankle, Phil Nc
Daniels has Clipped bone in his
foot, Jerry Blauser has been un-
able to practice because of a
charley horse, Jim Higgins is hav-

don and Don Campbell is also hav-

1t might not hurt the Rider too
much if he was describing the con-
dition of his entire squad, but the
lads already mentioned were slat-
ed for starting roles on what most
DVL observers figured as the
championship team. West Jeffs
chances also hinged on whether
the team could emerge from the
Mechanicsburg and billiards tilts
without being in bad shape physic-
ally. The squad is hurt bad now
with the two crucial games yet to
play. With less than two weeks re-
naming to round his aggregate in
to shape Buckman is aware that
he will have a real task on his
hands to mould his team into near
ly the shape which had been pre-
dicted when practice had started.
