Smoking Rule

In your Nov. IA issue when
reporting the ban on smoking
in public schools, you quoted
Mrs. Kicker as saying that the
ban was a good law but an
unenforceable one" and DR..
Whittier as saying, " a means
must be reached to recognize
that law will not change the
habits of some" In short, it
appears that a School Board
member and the superinten-
dent have a rather negative
approach to this law, rather
than looking at it as an op.
portunity whereby majority
of school children will not en-
gage in school-sanctioned
smoking. AS far as "the ha.
bits of some" are concerned,
/ feel DR.. Whittier will find
that these will be the people
who have deserved some sort
of disciplinary action all along
although it may take being
caught with a forbidden flag
to jolt the school authorities
into action.

opinions. Many seem to think
that a Junior College is just
an extension of High School.
This is not true. Junior Col
leges are accredited just as
other colleges and universities
are accredited. Sc m e ter
credits received at accredited
Junior Colleges are accepted
in colleges and universities all
over the country. The only diff
ference is that a Junior Col
lege offers only two years of
collegiate education. After two
years, the student must enter
another school to complete his
education, if he so desires.
The apathy of the general
public regarding Junior Col
leges can and may destroy this
very important segment of
higher education. The active
support and a genuine interest
in the welfare of the Junior
Colleges will insure the future
of many young students.
Activities of Junior Colleges
are important. Many fine lee
lures, plays, concerts, and
movies are sponsored by the
schools, but not supported by
the public. People will drive
SO to a 100 miles or more to
attend an event at popular"
four-year college or university,
but won't drive two miles to
support an event at a local or
community school.
If the Junior College is to
succeed, then the students and
the general public should take
heed. They must show their
interest and give support be-
fore the lectures, plays, con-
certs, and other activities
cease and finally, before the
Junior College itself disap-
pears completely.

In order to correct rumors
and Misrepresentation regard
ing CBEs stand on certain
issues, l would like to make
the following statement:
CHE strongly supports the
Board of Education. The Board
of Education has been the
subject of many overdrawn
and ridiculous attacks. How
ever, they have hewed to their
goals of obtaining a more solid
program of basic education for
the children of Montgomery
County. Two developments of
special merit which were fost-
cred by the Board of Educa.
ton were:
u Introduction of the Ami.
don plan at North Kemp Mill
Elementary School, and C2)
introduction of the Phono-
visual Method for teaching
reading, spelling, and speak
ing in several schools of the
County.
CHE favors a spirit of co.
operation with the school sys-
TEN administration. The teach.
ers and administrators of the
County School System, as pro-
fessional persons, have dual
responsibilities, one to them
selves to have convictions and
to pursue these with integrity,
and secondly, to the people of
Montgomery County, as repre-
scented by the elected Board of
Education, to attempt to carry
out the expressed policies of
the Board. In forwarding its
own detectives the Council for
Better Education proposes to
present facts and views in the
open forum. 1t believes that
the case for basic education
will be convincing not only to
the general public but also to
school administrators and
teachers.
CHE favors the use of bud

basic education. CHE believes
that adequate budget items

English, mathematics, history
and similar basic subjects. At
the same time, the educational
program should be carefully
reviewed to reduce and stream
line courses of secondary i'm
portance. Here we are speak
ing primarily of Junior and
Senior High Schools. CHE is
also considering presenting its
own proposals for teacher pay
which would have the aim of
providing adequate salaries to
promote teacher satisfaction
and esprit.
CHE has taken no position
on foreign language instruc.
ton in elementary schools.
The County's elementary
school language program is
being evaluated and phased
out at the present. CHE feels
that bilingualism is a worthy
intellectual aim but it does not
feel that the county program
has been demonstrated to be
effective. The idea of bilingu-
alism is based on European ex-
perience and is appealing.
However, we in the United
States do not have the same
necessity or opportunity to use
second languages as do the
people of Europe where nu-
merous countries speaking diff
ferent languages exist in close
proximity similar to states in
our country. CHE would be
pleased to consider any ideas
for making the teaching of a
second language, a real and
effective part of the elemen-
tary program. Meanwhile, let
us do a much better job of
teaching English including
reading, writing, spelling,
speech, grammar and compo-
sition to our children.

AS noted in this space earlier,
the Skinner interview was set
up by Metromedia's Jack Lynn,
who put a phone call through
to Skinner in Hong Kong when
he was released, made the
deal" and flew Skinner to New
York.
Since Metromedia has no TV
reporters of national stature,
Lynn offered the program to
Schoenbrun and it's possible
that the current arrangement
might be the forerunner of
future collaborations.

news stories, is the 18th to re-

Better a program with formal
