High School Discussion
Meanwhile, Alexandria School

asked for a meeting with city
councilmen to discuss a new
high school for the northern

their physical age is 6 years
One-third Of these pupils are
Negroes, he said.
Low Scorers
The superintendent said only
the children who scored low
on the first intelligence test
will be retested. At that time,
the number of low-scorers may
be trimmed, he said.
With parental consent. the
children who are judged to be
immature will be assigned to
readiness centers" where their
development will be guided by
specially chosen teachers, Mr..
Williams said.
The program, unprecedented
in Virginia. is designed to help
the slower pupils bridge the
gap between their present
mental development and the
work required in regular first
grade classrooms, he said.
Mr.. Williams noted that the
new readiness classes are not
kindergartens or nurseries, but
are classes which will acceler-
ate the children's development
and equip them to study on
equal terms with other children
next year.
School board m e mber
Thomas B. Mechling noted that
the need for a new high school
has been realized for several
years. and added, I'VE have
got an agreement from the
council that we need it, but

To get the feel of the thing, the FBI either
exhibits the real McCoy-like two propellers from
the plane Graham sabotaged or the cuff links spy
Abel used to hide his microflmS. Or the exhibit
rooms feature scale models-like the ve-foot model
of the mortally wounded plane carrying Graham's
mother and the three dimenSional scale model of
the interior of Drinks the second floor of Bos
toms North Terminal garage The Drinks model
is especially interesting because it shows another
FBI function-the work of the FBI exhibits section.
The model, with footprints in red showing the path
of the masked bandits from the garage entrance to
the Drinks vault, praised by the judge at the
Drinks trial for its help to the jury well to
the prosecution and the defense
OF course, the small fry linger the guns
that blasted their way to notorety in the flaming
sos. And, being small fry, they stare at the model
plane as it revolves above display of twisted
remnants from the Graham explosion.
But what pleases the agents who patiently
answer the questions of the visitorS-the same

the fear Of imitation has been

that wage raises must lead to

pated - except from a small
minority. What I did hear was
a heartening refusal to blame
either labor or management for

What I did hear repeatedly
were such questions and an
swers as:
How much more labor strife
are we willing TO accept in re-
turn for more stability in
prices?
The answer Of most, I felt,
land this despite the develop
ing battle in steel) was that
we're not willing to accept more
strikes to get a lesser rate Of
wage increase and a lesser rate
Of price increase.
How much more unemploy-

ety's institutions.
What results might we ex-
peet from pleas by government
officials for restraint and re-

The answer was that these

Don't do 1t. America. The leg

That's what william A.

luncheon today at the May

OF which Thornton w. Owen Is

and educational leaders particle
pated.
Mr.. Douglass said that the
universities and colleges have
an obligation 10 sell the WASH
ington area as a desirable
region. Close cooperation with
local engineering schools is
necessary to aid in the pro-
gram, he said. The univer-
stiles and colleges themselves
should seek research and de-
velopment contracts to become
eQuated with industry and
thus keep their own good per-
sonnet and get into business.
Tell Own Story
The publisher pointed out
the Federal laboratories now
have been given for the first
time their own paid advertis-
ing budget that allows them
to tell their own story. These
laboratories could boost the

said the most attractive thing

Every new job is challeng-
ing for q while, but too often
the engineer is allowed to
settle into a frame of mind
where he considers his years of
training only q fraction better
valued than the offerings of

speaker said.
II have q strong suspicion
that If a few conferences were
held wherein engineers could
discuss how to utilize manage
ment, management would learn
a good deal more quickly how
to utilize engineers" Mr.. Doug
lass asserted.
Area Praised
| He praised the Washington
area for its early and agrees
sive self-asseSSment as a nat

neers and scientists"
Mr.. Douglass said: "The sue
cess Of this effort is not only
indexed by the amount of clean
and stable research and deyel-
opment activity which has
moved into the territory, but
also by the large number of
industrial recruiters from other
parts of the country who now
visit this area in the hope Of
wooing away top personnel.
This race for the loyalty Of

ing to be won by common sense
