man, a Catholic, said: I'VE
never had that kind of assist
ance from the Government and
I don't think we need it now.
I don't think the Government

II don't think Congress should

There should be aid for pub
lie schools, but none for private
schools. 1 feel strongly about
this because I am a public
school teacher" said a Virginia
woman.
Among those favoring aid to
private schools, the most COM
mon reason was that these
schools reduced the burden on
public schools. Many made the
point that parents who send
children to private schools paid
for their tuition in addition to
their tax payments to support
public schools, hence were en-

Jesus Carlos de Vilallonga
is a Spanish painter who
seems to have extra sensory
perception. In his first Amer

sin avenue NV. through
April 8, is a painting en-
titled "Astronauts." sturdy
figures in their fantastic uni
forms. He painted these
three figures in Spain before
the number was selected here.
Sr. Vilallonga's study of
architecture seems to have
influenced his painting, not
only the semi-abStract city
panorama Of tall rectangles,
but also his figures which
have bulk and weight and
are stylized types rather
than individuals. A small
group of tempera paintings
has more color and anima-
ton than the oil paintings.

Antonio Tapies' second

brings a new collection of his
gouged cement paintings, and
a group of Autographs which
are much better.
Those who saw last years
Tapies show at Ores, will find
more variations. Some of the
paintings are as small as 1S
by 25 inches, e.g. the one in
the window, distinguished by
its bright vermillion color,
and balance in the arrange
ment Of gouges, cracks and
tears. Top corners are torn

ment: Bright but lazy" He
is most happy when tinkering
with electronic equipment in
his basement workshop. Is he
college material? He says he
wants to work with electrical
gadgetS, not books. We've half
nagged him to death. 1t hasn't
helped.
Answer-Why nag him? 1t
sounds as though the boys
natural bent is in mechanical
work, not academic. Not ev-
eryone should be forced to go

enough in high school to en-
ter a technical or engineer

where his interests lie. En-
courage these interests. You'll

@. My 15-year-old son has
been advised by his guidance
counselor to change from an

He does not care for math or

he should take courses in

he applies for college. He has
an 10 of 143.
A. With an 10 that high,
the lad is obviously sound COL
lege material. I would have to
disagree with his counselor
Let him continue with his ac-
ademic program. He won't
have much luck getting into
college if he takes a general
course and omits such subjects
as math, science or a foreign
language. My own experience
has been that colleges would
rather admit a boy with low
marks in basic courses than

subjects. Besides, with a Su-
perior 143 10 your boy may
blossom out soon and work up

he'll get an A, not a C average.
@. My husband teaches in
the elementary grades. But he
wants to teach education
courses in a college. What are
the requirements for college
teaching? What salary can he
expect?
A. He should have a mas
ter'S degree at the least, and
preferably a Ph.D. Although
colleges do accept nondoctoral
faculty members, they prefer
a man who has his advanced
degree. That may mean, in
your husbands case, taking
courses and working toward
the Ph.D. or Ed.D. Salaries
vary widely. Anywhere from
$4,000 to $4,000 would be
right, depending upon the COL
lege. Realistically, as a begin
ner he cannot expect much
more than $500.
@. I am SO years old and
have had a Government job for
Is years. I expect to retire in
IL years. I'd like to go into
teaching, but I have not gone
beyond high school. Would my
experience help, or do I need
a college degree? How do go
about getting one?
A. Yes, you'll need a college
degree if you want to teach.
Since you have mapped out
a l2-year program, 1 suggest
that you take evening courses
in college. If you stick to it,
you'll be able to get one or
even two degrees before retire
ment. 1t won't be easy but the
investment in time and money
will pay rich dividends in the
end. And I don't mean only
financially. Check with the COL

@. I need your advice. I have
a bachelors degree in psychol-
ogy but cannot afford to do
graduate work. I applied for a
teaching job and was told I
need at masters at least. So
now I am a salesman, and
must admit a successful one.
But l am not happy. I'd like
to do teaching or guidance
counseling. How do I go about
getting job?
A. Chances are you'll be
be turned down until you get
that masters or Ph.D. degree.
It's a pity you are wasting
your talent, inasmuch as psy-
biologists are in great demand.
Since you are a successful
salesman isn't it possible for
you to continue with your ed
ucation and get a masters?
Why don't you check with
your college about loans and
felloWShipS. The Federal Gov
ernment gives loans to stu
dents, but the money comes
directly through the colleges.
The American Council on Ed
ucation, Washington 6, D. c.,
has issued an excellent book
called ''FelloWships in the Arts

you clues as to possible grants
available.

A. With a C average you
may find it difficult to get
into one of the big-name COL
legeS, but I daresay there will
be a number of good colleges
that will accept you. You might
write to the college COR COL
legeS) that you would like to
enter, and tell them about your
academic record. You will then
find out which ones are avail
able to you. Why do you want
to transfer?
