Job? Shall he go to q junior
college? Shall he try a four
year college again next year?
We don't know what to do. Jim
wants to continue with his ed
ucation and wants to be a scien-
fist. At a time when science
plays such an important part
in determining the future of
our country, don't you think it
would be a shame for Jim to
be deprived of the chance to
make something of himself, Just
because colleges have a rigid
entrance policy? Isn't there a
place somewhere for AN I'M
orthodox boy such as Jim is?
Answer: Jim's problem is
being shared by many others.
All are being penalized because
colleges are overcrowded, and
do not have room or time for
the boy with individual prob
lens. Unfortunately, Jim, with
his c average, is in serious
trouble. Not many colleges
would take a chance on him,
even though he has a practical
bent for science. Perhaps the
courses he is taking at West
ern Reserve will give him more
confidence in himself. Once a
boy loses faith in himself and
accepts failure as his pattern
Of behavior. it is difficult to
break the cycle.
What Of Jim's future? There
are thousands of Jims. We en-
phaSize the Importance of a
college education today. We are
told that everyone should go to
college. But let's not 60 over
board. I believe in college, and
strongly urge those who are
qualified to go. However, not
everyone is qualified. There is
no disgrace in not going to COL
lege. Jim might be better suited
for a technical institute, where
his practical work would be en-
couraged. The New York In
stitute Of Technology, 1876 West
SEVENTEEN street, New York.
for example. offers a wide range
OF two and four-year courses in
technical subjects. That might
be worth looking into.
I wouldn't settle for an I'M
skilled job. I believe that Jim
should be encouraged. Unless
he loses his failure complex
now, he may be handicapped
throughout life. And I would
start a campaign at once tc
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1960-11-27

change the rigid policy Of our
colleges. Surely, some place
there must be an opportunity
for Jim to prove himself.
O.: I am planning to enter
college in the fall Of 1861 to
become a dietician. Can you
name some colleges that offer
work in this field?
A.: A great many colleges
offer programs in this field.
Talk to your high school guild
ance counselor. You can get a
list of the colleges in this field
from her. At a conservative
guess, I would say that you can
find several hundred good COL
leges that will give you work in
the field Of your choice. The
important consideration is to
find the college that will best
suit you. That is why I recon-
mend a good guidance counselor
for you.
O.: My boy is in his second
year at high school. He is bril-
liant and intelligent-and I'm
not prejudiced! It is going to
be difficult for us to send him
to college. Some time ago, in
one Of your columns, you wrote
about the work-study schools,
where boys can go to college
and work at the same time.
Where can I get a list OF these
colleges? I'd like to start guild
ing him towards this type of
college early in his high school
career.
A.: There are several hun
dred colleges that offer a work
study program. Most of them
are in the field of engineering,
but a number offer general
courses leading to the liberal
arts degree. The names of
these colleges can be found in
How to Be Accepted by the
College of Your Choice" pub
lished by Channel Press, Great
Neck, N. Y. page 1897.
Also, you can get a list of
these colleges from the United
States Office of Education,
Washington IS. D. C. I'm glad
to note that you are looking
ahead early. Actually, it is
never too early to start think
ing about college. Some parents
make the mistake of waiting
until their child is a senior in
high school. BY then it's too
late to do much about it.

large-Scale complications of
facts and figures are impos-
Sible.
The State Of Virginia made
a valiant try in 1854 to evaluate
the writing ability of all its
high school seniors. The project
was one of the most ambitious
OF its kind. The States expert
ences with it, however, only
help to show still more clearly
the difficulties in compiling
statistical data.
$4,000 Papers Graded
In May. 1854, the State Board
of Education collected over u.s..
600 papers on the topic, What
High School Graduation Means
to Me-" Then three of the most
experienced teachers in the
State were selected to grade a
carefully selected sampling of
1856 compositions which, it was
thought, would be representa-
tive of all of them.
About rs per cent of the
students got at least 400 of a
possible 600 points. with the
girls generally scoring higher
than the boys. The State
boards official report on the
survey-presumably based on
what the graders said-con-
cluded that cit appears that
the top half of the group wrote
very fine papers, but the quality
of written expression trails off
rapidly in the lower half"
According to Alfred L. Wingo,
co-ordinator for guidance, test
ing. research and surveys, Of
ficials weren't particularly I'M
happy with the results"
But George F. Bagby, former
head of the English depart
nent at Alexandria's George
Washington High School and
one of the three graders, tells
a different story.
Serious Weaknesses
Only l or 2 per cent of the
1868 papers demonstrated the
student really knew how to
handle writing" he says. De-
spite the relatively high point
scores many of the papers got,
he recalls most of them were
mot good" with a majority
containing serious weaknesses
in both content and mechanics.
Mr.. Wingo says he is con-
vinced writing standards in
Virginia have improved since
the 1854 study. His office
would love to make another
survey" he says-but there
isn't enough time.
To those critics who say
now is worse than ever
before, DR.. j. N. Hook of the
Council of Teachers of
English urges reading the I'M
edited letters to Abraham Lin
coin from his friends-pre-
educated men. These
letters, says DR.. Hook, display
the same mistakes that are
made in high schools today"
Another man who likes to
put the debate in perspective
he does not have any
proof, either-is DR..

Everybody's Candidate

It is good news to most Arlingto-
mans that Ernest D. Wilt has agreed to
run for the County Board in the Novem-
ber elections. Mr.. Wilt, appointed by
the judges of the Circuit Court to fill out
the board term of the late David L.
KrupSaw, is everybody'S candidate-al-
most literally. Republicans, Democrats
and the independent Arlingtonians for
Better County (ABC) are for electing
him to full term in his own right.
This, of course, is a remarkable
tribute to Mr.. Wilt, a native of the
county who has risen to prominence as
businessman, banker and promoter Of
civic betterment. No other person in
the memory of old-time politicians in
the county can recall board candidate
who received such support from all
political and nonpartiSan quarters. Mr..
Wilt had heSitated to accede to preSSureS
that he run, as his physicians had
warned him against taking on too many
responsibilities. 1t is measure of his
devotion to Arlington and to his sense of
public duty that he has decided to be a
candidate, anyway.
