FACING THE FACTS
w. A. Robinson

The Phoenix dailies have evi-
IDENTIFY set out deliberately to
create a climate of public Senti-
ment toward the Phoenix high
School-college system, that is
calculated to defeat the bond
issue coming up on December
II. The fact that the bond is
sue is desperate need for build
ing additional classrooms at the
new high school plants, that are
already over-crowded is practic-
ally denied by the dailies with
out a serious look at the evi-
dence.
One science teacher at Carl
Hayden High, for instance, is
forced to hold classes in a diff
ferent room each period carry
ing her books and records, and
such little science equipment as
can be carried by hand from
room to room. For part Of the
time this teacher had to attempt
to teach in rooms, unequipped
with blackboard, bulletin board,
or even with chairs at desks to
accommodate the students. OBJ
viously only a very meager and
uninteresting kind of teaching
can be accomplished under such
primitive conditions and neither
teacher nor students can share
the kind of learning experience
together that makes for normal
student growth or mutual res
pect.
Yet until classrooms catch up
with student population, time
and effort Of many teachers and
students will be practically vast
ed or worse. The effect of that
kind of school situation impairs
the morale of both students and
teachers. Much Of the effective
ness of the per capita expendi-
ture for the education of our
boys and girls will be lost If the
bond issue for increased space
is not approved by the voters.
The news papers already have
assumed a considerable respon-
sibility for having the city and
county government run accord
ing to their ideas. They make a
great effort to Influence vot-
ing as they wish it to go. How
competent the dailies are to
select the candidates for the
governing bodies of our local
Arizona sun., 1957-11-28

political units I do not know
but I doubt If they will always
be selecting and supporting the
candidates who are best for all
of us, or even for most of us.
In the recent high school board
election it was evident that the
papers were not too Subtly at
tempting to foist upon the COM
munity a candidate that the
people proved concluSively, they
did not want. Now they seem
to want to get a Strangle hold
on the schools, by proving that
they can choke off the financial
support needed by the, schools
for effective growth.
To me the Republics report
er's story indicated more that
he was drooling enviously over
the salaries that educators are
paid, than he was proving that
educators should not have these
salaries. If Phoenix wants at the
head of it's schools the kind of
competent educators that other
comparable cities in this west
ern country are employing, we
shall have to pay for them what
the high school board in Cali
fornia, Oregon, and New Mexico
pay.
If we can't afford first class
educators, that is our miSfor-
tune or our false economy die
tated by the Phoenix newspa-
pers, and we shall have to be
satisfied with mediocre, insecure
persons whose actions the news
papers can easily dictate.
There is no question, that
more administrators are needed
now than when Phoenix had
three high schools, and the
salaries in the field of education
have steadily increased just as
I suppose they have in the field
of journalism. The reporter
might be surprised to know
that the system had most of
these administrative positions
even before the system began
to set up the administrative or
ganization which the board paid
the University of Southern Cali
fornia $4,000 to design for
them. The board has merely4
given these positions the titles
that are generally used in high

ing Green State university freshman
squad as a preliminary to last Sat
urday's Falcon-Miami game.
Handicapped by the absence of their
two tall men, Morris Groman and
Mac Mcdowell, the local five did not
help their cause by their terrible foul
shooting They connected on only
three of 18 from the lane, with big
Joe Colligwood hitting all three.
+ the baby Falcons built up a 34-22
halftime lead and they survived a
second half showdown which saw
them net only 13 points.
Collingwood with Is, and Paul Jack
son with 10 were the high scorers
for the Merchants.
