There was a cluster of
tourists. mainly students
from a girls school, all uni
formed in white pleated
skirts and matching blazers
and each with a camera
watching intently as the
First Lady stepped out of
her long black limousine
licensed Az 43S.
Mrs. Kennedy was accom-
panied to the luncheon by
Mrs. Russell d'Oench of Mid

Ugh Dept: We appreciate
the effect of realism in certain
Of our T'V dramas as much as
the next man and believe Ben
Casey's undoubted success this
season (No. 4 in the 24-city
Nielsen ratings) is due in great
part to Greater Jim Moser's
fetish for authenticity" and
his undoubted dramatic flair.
The show is good enough,
however, to get along without
preposterous publicity.
Sample: A story which arrived
in the mail yesterday purport-
ing to explain how Actor Bruce
Dern BILLY Harris) coughed
and gasped for air so realis-
tically in Mondays episode.
He asked DR.. Max Warner.
the series technical adviser,
how he should play the scene
to be properly and correctly
sick'." the story reveals. The
doctor told him.
"Dern then asked a crew.
man to throw a coat over his
(Dern's) face, and watch his
right hand-carefully! The
camera was set, the coat
Smothered the intense actors
face, and when Dern couldn't
stand 1t any more, he wiggled
his right hand. The camera
rolled and the coat was yanked
off,"
"Dern was practically as
phyxiated.' DR.. Warner re-
called. His face was blue and
he gasped for breath In a most
realistic manner. In fact, he
scared me half to death"

MASON ON EDUCATION
Many Foctors Gauge
eocher Competence

These qualities would be evil
dent even in a short parent
teacher conference.
But suppose the teacher
doesn't seem to exactly fit this
pattern? After all, most people
fall short of ideals. What then;
Can the teacher who is les.
than outstanding still be q
good teacher? The answer, o1
course, Is yes. Remember, there
Is no instant way to Judge.
Suppose your son or daugh-
ter brings home reports that
convince you the teacher in
question is of less than salts
factory stature. This may be
a problem for the school ad-
ministration. Most school prin-
cipals will investigate immedi-
ately when they receive such
reports.
Frequently, a series Of OBJ
servations by the principal and
vice principals can identify the
weakness and help the teacher
to improve. You may have been
instrumental In saving the sit
uation.
If an uncorrectable weakness
is found. 1t may be necessary
