DEAR ABBY: When the

all the pictures she thinks
my 14-year-old brother
shouldn't see. This includes
pictures of girls in bathing

medical school days, is the
almost frantic desire to keep
the spark of life alive in
each of our patients.
For we have seen medical
miracles, you know. There
are thousands of people alive
today (both young and old
who were given up for dead
as incurable. l can recall
dozens of such cases in my
own practice.
There is always the hope
that new discovery is around
the corner. And it is: For
ANGER, arterioscleroSiS,
heart disease and many of
the other killers. I believe it.
So do other doctors. I guess
that's the reason why we
keep punching" with the
hope of knocking out disease.
A few doctors may be
greedy, but I doubt that even
they will want to prolong a
life to make a few extra dol
lars. Charge it up to zeal and
dedication to the wonderful
work they are privileged to
do.
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: Will
you please tell Mrs. x, who
wrote you about her hus-
band who has temper tan
trums, that I, too, have a
husband with a nasty tenn
per. Therefore, I feel I can
answer her with authority.
Love and forgiveness are
the answer. Be cheerful.
Don't argue. 1t doesn't do
one bit of good. Do your
best, you can do no more.
And then don't let anything
he says bother you.
I have three children, and
know how it hurts to see
them suffer through his
tantrums, but they, too. have
learned to forgive him and
are happy and well-adjusted
children.
Mrs. x. your husband
may not change, but you
can. And your life will be
better for the change. My
marriage has lasted is years
and will not end in divorce.

involving teachers, admins
traitors, counselors and par
entS. All should agree that
the child will have fewer
problems in the higher
grade.
There are methods that
will smooth the way for the
advancement. If the move
is to be made during the
year it can be made easier
by permitting the child to
work ahead, especially in
arithmetic. This can be done
by the classroom teacher,
but might be easier if the
child is transferred to an
ungraded room.
If the decision is made at
the end of the school year,
the catching-up process can
be made easier through
summer classes.
Every child has the right
to develop to his highest po-
tential. Each does so at his
own rate of speed. If,
through acceleration, he is
able to complete his educa-
ton and make his contribu-
tons to society at an earlier
age and still be happy, he
should have that right.

chief among them that 1t. Gov,
A. e. 8. Stephens would with
draw from the July II primary
election.
Some Of the State officials
closest friends and supporters
voiced the opinion that he
would withdraw from the Gov
ernor's race.
1t. Gov. Stephens with
drawal from the election would
leave Attorney General Albertis
s. Harrison, jr.. unoppoSed fol
the present. 1t. Gov. Stephens
on several occasions has denied
he intended to withdraw.
It was also felt that q mod

the Lieutenant Governors race
against State Senator Mills E

mentioned are william c. Bat.
tie of Charlottesville, State Sen.
ator Edward E. Wiley Of Rich

Virginia's tuition grant pro-
gram for private education ef-
fectively blocks re-establish-
ment of public schools in Prince
Edward County, a veteran Of
the school desegregation fight
there said last night.
Unless the program is aboI-
ished or modified by court ac-
ton, the county may continue
indefinitely with improvised
private schools for white and
Negroes, predicted Miss Jean
Fairfax, Of the American
Friends Service Committee.
When Prince Edward abol-
ished its public schools in 1858
to avoid court-ordered integra-
ton, a private school system
partially supported by State tu-
ition grants was set up for
white students. The county's
1,700 Negroes went without
schools until the Friends Serv-
ice Committee and several
other groups helped them set UP
Is training centers."
Shun Tuition Grants
Stated by unpaid volunteers,
these one-room centers pro-
vide q rudimentary education
for about $50 Negro students.
In order to avoid signifying ac-
ceptance Of segregation. they
have not applied for the States
tuition grants.
Miss Fairfax, a Negro who
has served with the Society of
Friends in several posts, de-
scribed the situation before Ar
lington'S Community Council
for Social Progress, a citizens
group.
School desegregation is a
social drama In which the prin-
cipal actors are children" she
said. ut Is q crisis In COM
