CITIES LEAGUE NAMES BERRY TO BLM BOARD

The executive committee of the League of Alaskan Cities recently endorsed Don Berry as the cities representative on ghe proposed Bureau of Land Management State Advisory Board.
 Ii was the consensus of the League directors that Berry in his capacity as agent for all the snaIor cities in the state, could pest represent the interests of she municipalities on a state wide basis.
 The proposal as originally received from R. R. Robinson Srate Director of the ELM would establish a nine or ten pnember board which would act strictly in an advisory ca pacity to the Bureaus profes- -sional staff. Robinson has re- glilcsted representatives from the following major land or re- sources interests; grazing, for estry, minerals, soil conserva- tion. urban and suburban com ptsxes, and general area econ onl4c development agencies.
 Members of the Board are formally appointed by Inter- Jar Secretary Udall and it is hoped the organizational meet ing can be held this summer Subsequent meetings will be held at the call of the State Director but will not exceed two a year.
 Since nearly 63Ga of the pub lie domain land is located II Alaska, the public land policies and procedures of the ELM arc Vitally important to all Alas s1ans.

NAACP Survey Reveals
Recent School Segregation
9 Non Southern
Cities To End
School Jim Crow

NEW YORK - School boards
in at least nine non-southern
cities have announced plans to
get rid of segregated public
schools within their respective Jllr-
isdictions with the opening OF the
l962-63 school term in September,
a survey by the NAACP reveals.
The findings, made public here
yesterday aug. 26) by NAACP
Executive Secretary Roy wilkins,
are based on studies of racial
patterns in public schools in %
cities in Is northern and west
ern states.
Despite anti-segregation state
statutes and the United States
Supreme Court ruling OF May IL.
1854. il is clear that segregated
schools exist in many non-south-
crn areas Mr.. wilkins said in
releasing the findings OF the
NAACP survey.
Much of this is the result of
patterns of residential segrega-
ton he said. However, sub
stantial part of it is the result OF
deliberate planning on the part
of local school boards TO contain
Negro childrep in particular
schools either by gerrymandcr
of zone lines or by other devices.
Whatever the cause, segregated
education is unconstitutional un-
der the u. S. Supreme Court
ruling. The NAACP will continue
its efforts to rid the country of
inferior, segregated schools" Mr..
wilkins asserted.
The nine non southern cities
which have announced voluntary
descgregation plans for this
month are Ely, Ariz.; Stamford.
Conn; Mt Vernon, Ill; Jersey
City. MontcIair, Morristown, and
Newark, ~ j.; CoatcSville and

DIMENSION EDUcATIoNf
High Schools Tickle
Harder Texts Today

And much of the criticism is
valid and constructive. But
many educators agree that de-
spite shortcomings where they
do exist. the high school stu
dent today preparing for col
lege entrance must study hard
er and longer and tackle course
work far more advanced than
his counterpart 20 or even 10
years ago.
! In 1900, fewer than one out
OF 10 children Of high-school
age actually attended high
school. High school education
was geared to a select minority.
Today, 8 out of 10 children
eligible for high school are en-
rolled. 1t is mass education.
Quality Higher
Despite this change in the
chaacter of the secondary
school, many educators agree
that the quality of learning
has gone up.
Raymond p. Harris in his
new book, American Educa-
tion," says; "If you compare
contemporary high school stu
dents with earlier young peo-
pie Of corresponding abilities
and interests, one can only
conclude that quality Of learn
ing has, in fact. steadily i'm
proved. The same scores on
college entrance examinations
which would have enabled
graduates to choose among COL
leges a few years ago would
rank only a little above average
now"
High schools of this coun-
try in l890-with a grand total
of 100000 students-had a sin
gle purpose: To prepare stu
denis for college.
High hools today, with
some eight million students,
continue to meet college prep
aration responsibilities. But,
they also provide general and
commercial programs for the
more than so per cent of stu
dents whose education will end
with their high school gradua-
ton.
Recently the director of q
college preparatory school,
which has been a top-ranking
school for the last 20 years,
was asked to compare the stu
dents and program of the two
periods.
Twenty years ago, 80 per
cent Of our graduates went to
college," he said. To-day, more
than SO per cent CO." a5
THE first difference is that
there has been a general stiff
fleming of work all along the
line. Also, we now require more
science, more foreign language
study and more mathematics
than we did then. We must
provide honors sections for su-
perior students preparing for
advanced placement examina-
tons to get freshman college
credits even before they enter.
Twenty years ago, 10 per
cent of our students took a
fifth. or extra. subject. Today,
more than half take a fifth
subject"
