Miss PrentiSs, who is mighty

The more cheerful Of the
two is Mr.. Dollars Concerto, /"

Weaker but He

VATICAN CITY, May 81
(AP). = Reports circulated in
Rome today that Pope John
XIII had suffered a setback
in his illness during the night.

'Amidon' Style
School Plan
StartIes Board

The president Of the Mont
gomery County Board Of Edu-
cation dropped small bomb
shell amid three of his col
leagues last night when he said
the school system will embark
on an "Amidon-type" program
in a new school next year.
President Charles w. Bell
mentioned the plan in CON-
menting on reading instruc-
tional methods currently in use
in Montgomery. He referred to
the Amidon Elementary School
in Washington, where an ex-
pertinent in basic study of
the three RS" along rigid lines
has been underway for several
years.
Mrs. Lucille Maurer, one of
three minority members of the
board, promptly pressed Mr..
Bell for an explanation, pro-
testing that the plan had not
been discussed in a school
board meeting.
MY understanding is that
decisions are to be made in
public. I heard about our pro-
posed experiment with the
Amidon plan first over the ra-
dio. This is entirely out of or
der, it is poor procedure, and I
wonder if it is really legal"
Mrs. Maurer snapped.
Visit Recalled
School Supt. c. Taylor Whit
tier replied that Mr.. Bell and
two other board members had |
visited Amidon last fall, and |
expressed interest in pursuing
its basic approach, with en-
phasis on phonics in reading.
I'm discussing it with Mr.. |
Bell, I explained that we have
an opportunity in opening |
three new elementary schools
in September to attempt a re-
search project" DR.. Whittier
added. 1T is important to
create the kind Of climate in
which it can be reasonably sue
ceSsful."
The three new schools sched-
uled to open in the fall are
Bushey Drive, the controver-
sial round school" which is
regarded as the epitome Of
modern construction; Farm
land, and North Kemp Min.
Any one may wind up with the
program.
Mr.. Bell explained that II
didn't mean to imply that a
decision would be made with
out discussion with the board
members"
Replied Mrs. Maurer. 1T Is
one thing when a superintend-
ent is making recommendations
for discussion, but 1t is another
to announce publicly that we
will embark on a pl gram which
has not even been presented .
to the school board"
Another Protest
On motion Of another mi
nority member, Mrs. Lucy
Kicker, discussion of the Ami
don school proposal was post
poned until the superintendent
makes his report at a future
meeting.
The three members who
made the visit to Amidon
school, to watch a whole days
classes in action, we're Mr..
Bell, William E. Coyle and Ev-
erett Woodward.
At that time, all three indi-
Gated their deep interest in the

Hansen.
In other business, the board
made a report on the reading
program in the elementary
schools showing that Montgom-
cry County elementary school
children spend 81 per cent of
their learning time learning to
read. Statistics also show that
Montgomery children are far
ahead of their contemporaries
elsewhere in the Nation in
reading skills.

break what everyone thought
would still be a tie, moved that
the transfers be approved. Mrs.
Lahr and Mrs. Martha Cert
wagon, the vice chairman, sided
with him.
Mr.. Newman Joined John
D. K. Smoot, William S. Hoof-
nagle and Howard E. Futch in
opposition.
Mr.. Newman said he changed
his vote because he decided the
board would have to work out a
broad new policy. On May 8,
he said, he was thinking in
terms Of the individual stu
dents.
He added that he voted no on
the transfers due to the close
proximity of the children to
the school where they are as
signed, which is within walk
ing distance" of their homes.
School Board Attorney
James Keith had advised that
it would not be discrimination
to deny the transfers.
Mr.. Futch and Mr.. Hoof-
nagle opposed the transfers be-
cause providing buses to take
the children to school farther
from their homes would cost
extra money.
Mrs. Gertwagen countered
by saying that the county is al
ready spending thousands" to
transport high school students
from widely scattered points to
all-Negro Luther jackson High
School.
She added: First graders
should in all conscience start
out in this day and age in a
desegregated school system"
Otto L. Tucker, attorney for
the parents, said "the chances
are the only way for relief will
be to seek a court injunction
against this discrimination"
All the appeals were for
transfers to predominantly
white schools.
Mr.. Tucker said the de-
cision's effect was Ito gerry
mander Negro children into
Negro schools these boun-
daries were set UP for the pur-
pose Of creating a dual school
system, and it stays that way"
that sooner or later,
Mr.. Futch agreed with Mr..
Newman that sooner or later,
one Of these days, we're going
to get away from these two
systems"
