There are now more men than
women teaching in the nations
public high schools. But in the
elementary schools wome
teachers outnumber men by
nearly 8 to L.
Men teaching in public high
and elementary schools tend to
be younger than their female
colleagues, with less classroom
experience But they have more
education.
And men teachers, although,
slightly better paid than t
women, are not as sure as wo-
men that they would become
teachers if they had the deci-
sion to make again.
National Survey
These conclusions are a few
Of those which can be drawn
from the results of a new, ma
tionwide survey of American
public high school and elemen-
tary school teachers. The stu
dy was made by the research
division of the National Educa-
ton Association covers every
thing from marital status to
morale, and provides an inter-
esting picture of the country's
body of public school teachers.
Taking up the categories of
the survey one by one, the fol-
lowing facts emerge:
Sex - Of all public S chool
teacher, 68.7 per cent are wo-
men and 31.3 per cent men. In
the elementary schools 87.9 per
cent are women and 12.1 per
cent men; in the high schools
of 56.8 per cent are men and
1872 per cent women.
Age - On the average, women
teachers are almost eight years
older than men teachers. Of the
women, 30.1 per cent are under
Sc years of age, while of the men
GIG percent are under Sc. Wo-
men far out number men in ali
age groups except one t h
group between rs and IS.
Experience - Women teach
ers, on the average, have been
in the teaching profession about
six years longer than men teach
ers. For both men and women
about twc-thirds of their total
experience has been in the
school system where presently
employed.
Men teachers have averaged
one year away from the profess
sion since they started; women
teachers, 49, years. M ed a
years of experience are less
than mean wears. For men the
median is N years, the m e a n
8 years; for women the figures
are 14.2 and 1914 years. Twen-
ty-five or more years of service

1900 Steps to Word Power, by
Edward C. Gruber (Arc Books
$1.45): A programmed course to
a larger vocabulary using t h e
technique of a teaching machine
without the machinery.
Montenegro, by Milovan Dill
as (Harcourt, Brace & World,
$5.75): President Tito's former
deputy wrote this novel in pris-
on, where he was confined from
1856 to 1861 for political activ-
ity, including writings, against
the regime. Montenegro is not
another indictment of Tito or
Communism, however. 1t deals
instead with the theme Of injus-
tice in general. Djilas, who is
back in prison now Tor other
writings that displeased the au-
thoritieS, uses his mixture of
history and fiction to show how
deeply ingrained conceptions of
patriotism and honor m a d e
brave fighters Of the Montene-
grinS and taught them how to
die. But in the changes t a t
came when Montenegro entered

the men and Is per cent of the
women.
Salary and Moonlighting -
The man teacher makes an av-
erage Of SAB yearly more than
his woman counterpart. The
higher average for men reflects
both higher preparation and ex-
ira pay for extra duties, differ
ences offset in part by greater
years of teacher experience for
women.
Extra Jobs
The mean salary for men IS
$3.50; for women $5,120. Sec
ond jobs other than teaching
are held by almost half of all
men during the school year and
by so per cent during the sum-
mer months. In comparison, rs
per cent Of women hold second
jobs during the school year and
11.9 per cent during the sum-
mer.
Morale - A greater proper
ton of women teachers express
satisfaction with teaching as a
career than do men. Asked,
would you choose teaching
again." 56.6 per cent Of the wo-
men said they certainly would,
1853 said they probably would,
9.5 per cent said there was a
$3.50 chance, 81 per cent said
probably not, and 1.3 per cent
said certainly not.
Asked the same question, only
35.2 per cent Of the men said
they certainly would choose
teaching again, 1858 per C
said they probably would, 1873
pc r cent said there was a $3.50
chance, 1877 per cent said they
probably would not choose teach
ing, and 6 per cent said they
would certainly not choose it.
Preparation - Only AZ per
cent of men teachers lack a
bachelors degree In contrast,
1873 per cent of the women
lack a bachelors degree. This
difference is partly explained by
the fact that women teachers as
a group are older than m e
teachers; many women began
teaching when a two-year diplo-
ma was an acceptable qualifi-
cation. Advanced degrees are
held by 40.7 per cent of the
men and by 1876 per cent of
the women.
Marital Status - Of the men.
80.5 per cent are married, 20
widowed or divorced, and 17.3
per cent single. Of the women,
ga per cent are married, Is

and 24.6 per cent single. Of the
men who are or who have been

children and of the women who

"Last year in Mississippi
there were 747 new cases Of
tuberculosis discovered and 125
