the seventh grade. She's
high.Strung by nature, and
she's been terribly upset by
the death of her grandfather
who lived with US since she
was a baby.
What Queenie and the 9TH
err girls do to her at school is
the last straw. She's at home
now with a fever, and tells
me she can't bear to return
to school. I discussed this
with the guidance teacher.
I'd like to know why Queenie
picks on Hazel.
For example, yesterday
Hazel brought a new red
leather pocketbook to school.
It had been a birthday gift
from her grandfather. While
she was showing 1t to some
body. Queenie and her gang
grabbed it and began to play
ball with it.
Queenie H.-Hazel asks for
1t. She either snubs the rest
of US. sits there by rersen
and won't even say hello. or
else she shows OF. I'm not
the only one who tries to get
a rise out Of her. Why pick
on me?
She's not friendly to any
one unless she wants to talk
about her presents. her
clothes or her marks. Once
we asked her to turn one
end Of a Jump rope and she
said no, she wanted to read.
So we never ask her now.
About her pocketbook, it
was Just for kicks. We were
not going to hurt 1t. But she
screamed and got hysterical.
She has no sense Of humor.
She takes everything so sert-
ously. She's just a wet blan-
ket.
The Councils View
Teasing Is one.way fun
and, as such. is sadistic. Real
fun is two-way. And teasing
is q byproduct of unsuper-
vised play, which in this case
exposes Hazel's hypersensi-
tivity and Queenie's over-ag-
gressiveness.
Mrs. c. is right in bring
ing this uneven battle to the
fore. Both teaser and leased
are hereby revealed as hav-
ing personality problems
which may be dealt with in
the protective environment
of school and home. Hazel's
withdrawal tendencies make
her a sitting duck" for
Queenie who must bully away
her own hurts on others.
Each can surely be helped in
the guidance classes.
Much damage can result
from piling torment on one
who may already be weight
ed down by troubles which
don't show.
Queenie and Hazel assum-
eddy are still normal kids.
Mrs. c. has called attention
to each girls trends. In so
doing she is helping to nip
behavior which, If carried to
excess, would lead OF warped
adulthOod.

Several hundred members
OF the National Association OF
Hebrew Day School Parent
Teachers Associations were
warned yesterday against over

Instead. he said, another

is meeting to discuss "Torah
Jews in the Making: Goals OF
Yeshiva Education for Con-
temporary Society,""
The schools which the asso-
citation represents, a spokesman
said, are primarily a post
World War II phenomenon and
now have upwards of $4,000
pupils. They have arisen in
part. he said, because of the
wartime destruction of the old
Eastern European centers of
Jewish learning and in part
because of the postwar reli-
gious revival in this country.
The schools do not belong to
a church or parish but to the
community. he pointed out.
Each days instruction is di-
vided equally between Hebrew
studies and whatever studies
are required in the local pub
lie schools.
About 8 per cent Of the chill
dren in the United States who
receive Jewish education Of any
sort are in the day schools, he
said.

West Retains
Pass Boycott

BERLIN. Feb. % (AP). -
British and French military
personnel made limited use to-
day of the new passes issued by
the Russians for travel to the
allied mission in West Ger
many, but the Americans held
to their boycott except in cases
of emergency.
The allies have rejected the
passes as an attempt to win q
measure of legal recognition for
the Communist East German
government. Passes formerly
used authorized travel in "the
Soviet zone of Germany; the
new passes, issued February 4
are for travel in the German
Democratic Republic" which
the Allies contend is an illegal
regime.
A British Embassy spokes-
man in Bonn said British and
French vehicles are making
trips between West Berlin and
the allied mission in Potsdam,
II miles away, with food and
other supplies for the mission,
The spokesman explained the
British and the French were
using the new passes for "ad-
ministrative" purposes but not
for official" purposes. Supply
trips are considered administra-
tive.
The Americans, however, were
under orders not to use the new
passes except for such an emer-
gency as medical treatment in
West Berlin.
The Potsdam military mis-
sions were established under the
four-power occupation agree
ments on Germany. The main
purpose of the missions is to
provide liaison with the Soviet
force which the West insists is
the only legal authority in East
Germany. The Russians main
tain liaison missions with the
American, British and French
forces in West Germany.

dreds of blacks and whites

The meeting ended his cru

ised to keep the report secret
