have a formidable list of re-
quired summer reading for
their rapid learner classes. They
use these books as a basis for
discussion. Miss Casey says,
Books must meet the emotion
al maturity of the reader"
Uses Own List
Miss Gould uses list of her
own rather than any standard
ones. my criteria are, first of
all, that it be American htera-
ture, since it is for the 18th
grade. 1t must be recognized as
having something to say, and
as having merit. The list should
be varied. Some books are sug-
gested because of difficult sub
ject matter, and some because
of difficult style, such as James
or Faulkner. Some l pick are
easy because we're concerned
with the plot. Books like George
Orwell's Animal Farm are good
because juniors are just discov-
ering satire"
A complaint against the use
of lists is that a student might
limit himself to them. 1T des-
troys a pupils sense of discov-
cry if you tell him to read GER
tain books for credit" says Miss
Gallagher. "And he may think
if he's read every book on the
list he's educated. The student
should search and discover for
himself in reading"
Variety Emphasized
The teachers all emphasized
variety in subject matter, au-
thor, and period, with as much
contemporary literature of rec
ognized merit as possible.

terest."
The lists are growing in num-
Der and diversity, but how is a
student to benefit from them?
They're crutch," says Mr.. E.
Russell Wall, sophomore and
junior English teacher, "since
many students have no idea
what to read. It's like the pro-
gram notes in the newspaper.
If you have a show you want to
watch you go ahead and watch
it, but if you have no idea, you
go to the list. The list assumes
the student has read something
before"
Two of the college prepare
tory lists have been published
in paperback form and are
available at the school store.
The most widely used list at
B-CC is the National Council of
English Teachers list.
The Advanced Placement Pro-
gram of the College Boards also
circulates a list of what stu
dents are reading in the better
high schools around the coun-
try. Almost all the books men,
toned in these lists are avail
able in the B-CC library.
Must Have Merit
Main criterion for recon-
mending a book is literary mer-
it. 1T never recommend any
thing that isn't at least a minor
work of art" says Miss Nancy
Gallagher, teacher of sophie
more and junior English.
LISTS will never replace
talks about books by teachers
to students and students to each
other. Pupils read what they
hear their friends talking about.
In class I casually mention
books of an author or period
we're studying to get students
interested"

Aluminium Screen

By HERMAN BAUM
Contributing Writer

The mitered corners are held
together with corner locks
that are pushed into place.
No bolting is required.
Full length screens should
have q brace across the CEN
ter so that the tension Of
the wire does not pull the
sides in. This. however, Is
optional. This brace is made
Of q piece Of small alumni
mum channel with the ends
cut as illustrated. It is at
tached to the side opposite
the Spline with No. 6. "a
inch aluminium sheet metal
screws.
After the frame is assem-
bled, you are ready to install
the screen cloth. You may,
select either aluminium or
spun glass, but do not use
brass or copper as the gal
vanic action will damage
the metal. Place the screen
ing over the frame 30 that
the outer edge lines UP with
the outer edge Of the groove
at one end and one side.
Fold the screening down
into the groove so that 1t
fits along the inner edge Of
the groove only.
It must not extend across
the bottom since manufac-
turing clearance does not
permit this. Cut the spline
to proper length and force
1t into the groove, using Q
block Of wood and Q
hammer. Do not use the
hammer directly, on the
spine. ..
Special hangers ave avail
able for Installing the
screens. One part of each
hanger Is attached to top
window lamb one inch In
from the edge. The other
two parts are attached to
the screen frame 50 as to
match the top brackets. The
bottom Of the screen is held
In with two small screw eyes
and hooks that are fastened
in holes drilled ct the
bottom Of the screen.

State Gambling Reports To State Legislature Meet with Satisfaction

JUNEAU lR - Lawmakers heard with satisfaction yesterday that apparently all of the cards are on the table in the bingo busi- ness.
 Word came in a report from Commissioner of Public Safety Martin B. Underwood and Atty. Gen. Ralph Moody on compliance to the State Gambling Act passed by the 1860 Legislature. The act requires that such a report be made annually to the Legislature.
 The law authorizes b ingo games, rallies, ice pools, derbys and contests, to be conducted by qualified organizations upon the purchase of a $10 permit.
 Underwood said PIT permits had been issued last year. Only three violations were reported, with one arrest made, one case still under investigation and one re- port unfounded.
 Moody reported that no com- plaints had been received by his office.
