VANCOUVER, B. C. up - The
writing of 19 novels and 1900
scripts is no small achievement.
Now Patricia Young has added
another story to her life. 1t in
wolves a bomb injury, brain surgery
and finally-blindness Despite all
this, her latest book is now on store
bookshelves.
Pat say she looked at death and
saw neither fear nor fright" just
a sort of sadness. But the sad
ness has gone, leaving a different
person.
"You see things differently after
an experience like that" she says,
referring to a brain operation and
the blindness that followed
"YOu brush away non-essential
things from your life-like clothes,
cocktail parties-and then you see
more clearly"
Pat, in her early 30s, was born
in London and was selling short
stories in her early teens. BY the
time she was 16 she had turned out
two novels, both written in the fam

Mr.. Lewis told a meeting OF

parts of the city but also from
the suburbs.
The association voted to ask
that another police car be add

1t was scientific problem, but it was

1t illustrates the crux of the double-up
course in science and mathematics which
third graders at Beers Elementary School
have helped to pioneer for the elementary

You take the implicit math in an area Of
science and develop it" explains Mrs. Sylvia
X. Shugrue, elementary science cOnsultant
who supervised the experiment conducted last
school year under auspices of the Joint Board
on Science Education.
Observing educators believe the students
not only gained fuller understanding of both
scientific and mathematical principles, but
scaled over the usual grade boundaries. They
used the metric system not normally intro
duced before the seventh grade, and digested
some twelfth-grade- physics, for example.
I'VE went into an area of science, and to
that content we added measurement in order
to increase the understanding of the science
content" says Mrs. Shugrue.
For instance, in the third-grade curricu-

In the science line, the children studied
and demonstrated such phenomena as the
changing states of matter expansion and con-
traction, temperature and displacement They
used math to measure and weigh, and went on
to graphing, ratio and average, the decimal
system and history of measurement.

This term, the content which has been de-

Districts elementary curriculum. Plans have
been completed for training additional teach
ers in the subject material this fall at District

Keith johnson. supervising director of the

The experimental program at Beers was
one part of an area-wide project of trying to
relate more closely the teaching Of science and
mathematics at both the elementary and Sec
Ondary levels.
