Tabled

(

A - Apathy of the student body ar>d lack of in i t iat ive of representatives, perennial complaints, were again subjects of tolk this year ;

B - Sue Dorfrnon's coverage of Student Counci l meet-ings through her minutes came in for cr i t ic ism; C - The s i lence with which the situation regarding Peter Zohn's forced inabi l i ty to serve as v ice president was greeted, and the subsequent questions about having a v ice president pro tern, were wel l- founded crit icisms;

D - The fact that there was hardly one meeting run by porliomentary procedure came under the scrutiny of many students;

E - Ye t onother topic was the partisanship which many people thouglii president Donovon displayed� �� the early days of the testing resolution quagmire; F - The discrepancies in the books, espec ia l ly the

query "Where oh where did my five thousand g O ' ? " a f t e r N i c k y Bachko's audit In the fa l l , were springboards to much speculation os to the responsibility of students in gove rnment;

G - The revelation by the student body thot their rep-resentatives did not hove to vote as they were instruc-ted to, caused a mild sensation; H - There was contraversy over whether the student counci l hod the right to concern itself with o resolution on nuclear testing, There were two main focets of this object ion: one was that the subject itself should not be in c o u n c i l , and the other was that the counci l hod no right to pass a resolution with the words "We the stu-dents of P D S H S . . . "

The counci l hos been c r i t ic i zed before, but perhaps in post years there was less basis for the harsh words.

COUNCIL COMMENT Division of Labor-How Effective?

by Steve Rohde

In any goverainenial body the work thai must be done Is d i -vided among several groups or comminees lor the purpose of ex-pediancy. Our student council Is no dilferent.

In September, thirteen standing committee were organized, chair-men choosen, and sign-up sheets posted. I i Is now six months later and time tor a look at what has been done by the various committees. Some have worked, while others have loafed. Assembly:

Early last summer chairman Doug Pitman wrote letters lo Jackie Robinson, G. H. Seger, and the Colgate 13. During the year be has organized the pep Assembly and Band Assembly. Coming \jp are assemblies presenting the Bucknell Band, PlKienlx Theatre and a return visit from Jackie Eloblnson.

Doug considers his committee • one-man job, 90 per cent of which must be done in tbe sum-mer. He feels assemblies are an Important pan ol school.

1 rate tbe Assembly Commlltee: • • • (Three Stars) Recreation:

Headed by Ray Gerson, this committee Is in liaison with the administration. The beginning ot the year showed no activity from this committee under the direct-ion of Steve Worth. Ray took over and we have had two ski trops, and a "Twister". Future plans center around more ski trips. Ray feels the commlnee ts doing pretty well, bui I feel we need more than ski trips. Rating: Student Handbook:

Rena Rtmsky, chairman, plans to Include in the new handbook; rules; clubs; sports; student coun-ci l ; school song andotherfeatures. Printing will begin in the school

SL P i n l fiViAp o n ^ p i - t \ I . T H i H

aaae wilt tw dlstrUiufed to all sophomores and new Juniors and seniors next year and the fol-lowing year.

The committee Is working and is getting something done. Let's give ihem: Cafeteria:

Here again we have a one-man commlnee headed by Gate Wash-ton. Early In the year she dis-tributed a questionnaire and com-piled the results for use in wr l l -Ing the menus. Many ianovatlons were introduced this year and Gale considers this the most suc-cessful year (or this committee.

Gale feels that It Is only hu-man nature to compalln about the food. She is always ready to

speak to Mrs. Fountain about your problems. We rate the calecerla commlnee: • • • Board of Education:

Beisy Welngart andBruceFree-man attend every meeting of the Board of Education. There they ask and answer any questions about studeni activities in school. Betsy feels the committee has merit but 35 of yet it has not done much. Hoping that something wil l soon get done, I rate this committee: • • Spirit:

The two main duties of this committee are 1) organize a pep rally and a pep assembly and 2) palm and hang posters publicizing games. John Worcester, chair-man, feels that the spirit at our high school fluctuates, it Is there when the event Is going on, but at other times spirit is losi. John states thai a winning team is not the Important Ingredient In spirit. He wants to continue to publicize spring sports. The committee Is doing lis job and rates • • • School-Community Relations:

Luke Edmond, chairman, is re-quired lo keep all bulletin boards Lp to date, write articles for the local newspapers and keep the Board ot Education posted thr-ough I s s u e s ol " T h e S t h r e l b e r Tlmes".

The bulletin boards are not iip. all stories have been scooped and •The Schrelber Times" itself sends Issues to the board. With this sute of affairs Luke sees no need for his commlnee. He dislikes [he name and [eels that the name "Bulletin Board Com-mittee" would be better. Rat-ing: •

Are all of these commlnees needed? Many ot the things which one commlltee does are repealed by another. Some of them could be done away with entirely or brought under tbe sipervlslon of another. Aije we organizing com-mittees just for the sake of having ihemi

Vlath Team - Something Different and Challenging

Schreiber's math team, after another successful season as our school's least known team, was host to five other North Shore math teams on Tuesday, March 6, for the fifth of this season's six meets. The team, consisting of whoever can l i t Into coach Clymi's valiant, is captained by Jeffrey Friedman, and Is usually com-posed al Many Gall, Bruce Perry, Bev. Bowman, Don Gaylord, aivl Nick Bachko. Tbe team has never placed first within the memory of any of these.

A typical meet consists of five problems, each to be solved in-dividually by each of five students. The rest "warm and bench" there-fore, the top possible team score per meet Is 25, one point being scored for each correct answerr A score of over 10 is considered excellent. A score of over 15 Is considered lucky.

Problems, while not as easy as at« all solvable with high school math. A time limit, usually about five minutes, is set on each one. Some typical problems are: Question I - Time: 4 minutes

Two unequal numbers have the same pair of digits. The sum of these numbers diminished by their difference is 1D6. Whai Is the great-er of these numbers? Question 2 - Time: 6 minutes

A semicircle is drawn on AB as diameter. Chord CD is parallel to AB with C nearer to A than to B. If the length of chord CD Is twice the length ot chord AC and the rad-ius of the semicircle is 5 inches long, find the numt>er of inches, to tbe nearest tenth, in tbe length of CD.

If you can solve any or all of these within ihe given time limits without use of ruler or compass, see either team captain Jefl F reed-man or MartyGall, president(rf the math club.

This year's high scorers for the first four meets were: Jelf Friedman fc Don Gaylord 6 Brute Perry 5 Bev Bowman 3 Nick Bachko 3

FOOTNOTE TO CONTROVERSY President Kennedy's Decision on How It ComparesTo MyResolution

As everyone knows, our resol-ution urging President Kennedy to order the resumption of nuclear testing in the atmosphere was defeated, but It is entirely likely that this vote did not reflect the tnJ: feelings of the Studeni Council on the subject of nuclear teasting. Unfortunately, so many side Issues entered into the debate that the real issue was obscured. These side issues Included: the argument over whether the Council had the riglu to pass such a resolution; the confusion over the meaning of the word "petition"; the debate over whether a referendum could and should be held; the squabble over the Influence histroy teachers were allegedly exening; the hassle over the first ballot with its "proxy vote''; the battle over the revote which, in its obvious unconstitu-tionality and comic absurdity, was an even greater ti^vesty than the first; and the attempts to censure and impeach Pete Donovan, whose errors in judgment. If any, were small compared with those of many others. I for one was relieved when this comic opera was over even though the outcome wasn't the one for which we had hoped.

It will indeed be Ironic if, after all thisexcitemeni, we at Schrelber late little notice ot President Ken-nedy's announcement that he has taken the very .action our resolution would have urged him to take. It will be interesting to see how Schreiber's Liberals, who have been so outspoken In their opposi-tion to resumption, will react to the President's announcement. Will they recant and endorse his action or will they renounce their loyally to JFK7 It they, Ilkethose contemptible beamlkswhosatdown In Times Square, continue to op-pose American atmospheric test-ing, they w i l l only be S f r i l n p as tools ol Internationa] forrimiinl>rn.

It I D worth noting that Kennsdy. In his radlo-Tv address to the nation announcing his decision In favor of resumption, followed closely the outline ol our defeated resolution:

It said: "WHEREAS, the survival of the United States is dependent upon her retaining nixrlcar si^er-lortty over the Soviet Union;'' JFK said: "Only through such (nuclear) strength can we In the free world - - should that (nu-clear) deterrent fail -- face the tragedy of another war with any hope of survival."

It said: "WHEREAS, tbe Soviet Union has recently achieved Im-portant advances in nuclear tech-nology through niflear tests con-ducted In the atmosphere;" JFK said: " . . . ihey (last fall's Soviet tests) reflected a highly sophisticated technology, the trial of novel designs and teclmlques, and some subsiancial gains In weaponry."

It said: "WHEREAS. America must now resume the testing of nuclearweaponsin the atmosptere If she Is to continue to enjoy nu-clear superiority over tbe Soviet Union;" JFK said: "The fact of the mat-ter Is that we cannot make simi-lar strides without testing in the atmosphere..."

It said: "WHEREAS, It Is the consensus of expert scientific opinion that radioactive fallout re-sulting Irom new American nuclear tests would constitute but a neg-ligible danger to mankind;" JFK said: " . .the exposure due to radioactivity from these tests will be less than 1/50 ol the differ-ence which can be experienced due to variations In natural radioact-ivity, simply living In different locations in this coumry."

It said: "WHEREAS, the security of the U.S. and the future of the free worldare more Important than any transitory expression of world opinion..." JFK said: " . . . there wil l sUIl be chose In other countries who wil l urge us to refrain from test-ing...Perhaps they forget that this country long refrained from test-ing, and sought to ban all tests. Wi l l i e the Soviets were secretly preparing new explosions."

I say, "Would that the President were always so perspicacious I "

Applications are now being received for editor of next year's "Schreiber Times, " Write an applica-tion and put it in the "Schreiber Times" mailbox in the main office.

ARE YOU REALLY —or are you methodically screening out a large part of reality from your life?

Sophistication is notplayingroulefte with men named Raoul on the French Riviera.

Sophistication is not even experience. Some people can travel around the earth and come home no more sophisticated than if they had spent the time look-ing for worms in an Iowa corn field.

True sophisticates know that today's demand for experts tends to turn people into "speciaUzed' splin-ters" — narrow people who know a ^eat deal about one subject, and almost nothing about anything else.

They know that true sophistication is a way of looking at the entire world — the wars, revolutions and other major upheavals. But also at other mean-ingful things—the face of a mother who has just seen her son sworn in as a judge . . . the revealing grin of triumph when a politician undercuts an opponent... a human, detailed report of a courtroom liattle.

They don't want to be insulated from reality by nice-nellyism, Mrs. Grundy and official pomposity.

They read the Daily News. It delivers all the news but delivers it with a knowing wink. A paper that talks back. A paper that is sophisticated.

Regents Scholarships Awarded; Apply To Go To Indiana Now! Nick Bachko Ranks First in State Classes Visit |

N. Y. Supreme Court Just before winter vacation 45 Schreiber seniors were awarded New York State Regents' Sch-olarships. The scholarships were based on an exam given this fall to all candidates who planned to attend college and who desired a State Scholarship. The exam took almost a full day and consisted of three pa r t s , one a writing sample. One of our seniors. Nick Bachko, tied with ag l r l fmmHunt -ington Station for FIRST PLACE In the entire state. They both ach-ieved a score of 283 out of a p o s s -Ible 300 pomts. Scholarships were given to students who Bchlevedover 190 points on the exam. The sch-olarship entitles the winner to a minimum of J250 per year to a maximum of $700 depending i ^ n need. However, the scholarship can be accepted only If the winners attends an accredited college or university within New York State.

The following is a l ist of the scholarship win te rs from PDSHS: Nicholas liachko. J r . David Blodgett Beverly Bowman Judson Brown .Stephanie Burmeister Betty Chrisman Adele Clarke Susan Cobb James Creed Peter Donovan Peter Fay Martm Gall Raymond Gerson Ksthy Kallack

However, if these people cannot accept the scholarships, they are then given lo al ternates, persons with close to 190 scores . There were 17 al temateships woninSch-re lber . Many times all of the a l -ternates receive the scholarships because of the great number of winiiers who plan to anend schools out of state.

On Friday morning, February 16, some forty stirfents from Mr. Fllcop's senior honors history c lasses went by bus into Brooklyn to visit the Siqireme Court of the Su te of New York. The purpose of their t r ip was to learn how a coiut functions and to see one In action.

The students were met at the court house by Mr. Charles Sol-odkln who was to be their guide for the day. He started the tour at the entrance of the building where he pointed out the figures of Moses and the Ten Commandments and of Justice that a re carved in the build-ing. He then toot the students to on the twenty-six courtroom in the building. This room, he Informed them, had been set aside for the use of c lasses and civic g r a t i s that come to tour the building and was to be their base of operations.

During the courseof the moming( Mr. Solodkin explained what he would take them to see, how a coiut functions, and what a c o u r t l s . T h l s was followed by a question and answer period which was in turn

followed by a visit to a court that was in session at the time. The case before the court was a law suit on the grounds of criminal negUgance on a sailhoat, resiUting in the loss of a youngglrl 'sfinger. The jitdge presiding was the hon-orable M. Henry Martuscello and the attorneys Involved were two of New York's finest Mr. Emlle Zola Berman for the defense and Mr, Engleman for the prosecution.

During the afternoon, there was another quesUon and answer period. Then the students heard p a n of a mock trial that had been recorded by another c lass that had visited the Supreme Court there, after which they were shown the process by which jurors are pick-ed.

The visit was completed by a short tour of the judges* chajn-bers and the l ibrary.

It was generally concluded that the visit was ve i^ interesting and worthwhile and that the practice of visiting the Supreme Court was one that sl^uld be continued In future years .

Bits and Pieces by Adele Clarke

Well, I think first of all I would like to congratulate all the win-ners of New York State Begems' Scholarships, especially Nick Bachko who tied for first place in the entire STATEI An honor well deserved. Nick.

Has anyone else noticed the well-tanned people living the halls of our school? You certainly can tell they didn't spend their vacation in Port!

I've been wondering if there was anyone left In school on Thursday. Seeing the tons of t lckenape fall on Broadway and on John Glenn, Gus G n s s o m , Alan S h e i ^ r d , as welt as all the other astronauts was an experience 1 for one will never forget. 1 don'i think anyone who saw these American heroes could ever forget the tremendous pride in America that ttiese men have brought out. To me, this was the real beginning ttf the Space Age.

To return to earth, PDSHS to be specific, the Thespians had init-iations of new members a while ago. The initiates were required to act out the par ts of jelly dough-nuts and other compelling roles. Sounds like fun, sort of.

Something else that sounded like tun was the party at Limdy's when the establishment changed hands and ALL the merchandise had to be disposed erf.

I hope that all tlie seniors filled out and handed in their list of Setiior Superlatives and their Will and Prophesy. The results of the Superlatives might be found in this issue ... if you look around.

If you have never attended a meeting of the Student Council,

TRY to go down to the auditor-ium some Monday morning. This is another experience 1 will never iorget. It is amazing, shocking and generally horrifying to see the way our "mock government " Is nin.

What's with WINS these days? Although I personalty like all kinds of music - - Frank Sinatra Includ-ed - - enough's enough. They ap-parently think they have started a fad or something. I really agreed with Dick Clark (no relation) when he said that tlie main results of this campaign or whatever would be that WINS rating wotild take a ra ther quick drop, to saytheleast .

Peter then turned the meeting over to Bob Snlbbe, and said, "I have tlie right to speak first to defend muself. I have been cri t icired tor following the letter and not the spirit of ttie law."

A vote was taken on the motion made by Geoff Hatch to Impeach Peter. The motion was defeated by a targe margin.

Jeff Friedman then moved to censure Peter on the same grounds that Geoff Hatch had raised. This motion also was defeated. Some one commented, "what do you mean, censure? Are we supposed to cut off his head?" (No one seemed to understand the meaning of the word ' ' censure , ' ' which is'"to condemn as wrong, to ex-press disapproval of .")

Later in the meeting, Peter, reinstated as president, said, " I 'm afraid this meeting has boileddown to a lot of nonsense."

Geoff Hatch replied, "1 d i s -agree with you, 1 think we have the right to bring up what our history class wants us t o , "

A New Pied Piper .. P e a c e by Heather Tobfs

OD Pdiruory 1 6 and 17, be-cween Qve sod el^i thousand s iu -d n c s marched through Washlng-too, D.C. tn the largest peaceful demonstratiaa Washlngtoo has seen In twenty-five years. The gathering was the result of plan-ning through the student project. A Turn Toward Peace, started by studeccs at f larvard . The p r o i -ject is hoped to extend to al l the United Slates, and then possibly throughout the wcr ld .

Buses left from al l ever New York, Pennsylvania. Connecticut, New Jersey and Ohio, The bus r ide f<r my bus was just over six hours long, including one stop for lunch. Prom the moment we left New York until we reached Washington There was song. Songs about the wonders the United Slates and the greatness of its people, songs about the workers, songs of hard times, and s o n ^ from times ^ plenty, happy s o n ^ and sad songs.

We arrived tn Washington at 11 :00 . later than we expected. Seme oi us were supposed to go speak with Congressmen, p r o n l -nent leaders, ambassadors and officials, but nm* there was no time fcr that. The people from other buses attended to those jobs.

When we arrived tn Washington we were al l excited, and cheered as we saw a groi^) of pickets outside the White House. After a moment we stopped when we d l s -covo-ed that they were a counter-demonstratloa, one that was formed to picket the pickets. They

a group of 150 adults. We told to form lines of threes

and walk to the park Just across bran the White House where we would join the other students in the " v i g i l . " We carr ied signs and banners. Several gro4f>s not a f fU-laied with the Turn Toward Peace, such as Sane, held their own signs but they were not attached to the main demonstrailou.

After not more than half an hour d walking around the park, our special groift leaders co l -lected otr signs, because of a c i ty ordinance, and informed us that we were to march to an area across the Poconac to Virginia and Arl ington Ccmetary and then back to the Washington monu-ment to bear folk singing and speeches. The march was about

ten mi les . As we crossed the bridge Into Virginia , one could not see the end of the line, f rom or back. Some people had t r a -veled al l n l ^ for this march. I saw one boy on crutches. There were those whose father had died in the war, but al l were march-ing [hat others may see the need for peace. The march was s imi lar to that one of the Pled l l p e r , lead-ing the children to a happy h«ne beyond the mountain.

The marching through Arlington Cemeiary. the official bur la l j l a ca for the thousands who have been kil led In the wars of this nalioo, was done tn almost sacred devo-tion.

Why were we marching? We were marching to e;qx-ess o t r convlc-tloa that the United States and a l l the other countries of the world must begin to make a conscious and sustained effort to " s e c i r e a meaningful peace." For the last fifteen years there has been a "cold w a r " that has become hot-ter every day. The motions the UnlKd States cr the Soviet Union made in the name of peace have been seen by the other as threat-«ilng cr bellicose. The restdu-tlon counter-actions make al l true hope fcx- peace distant, if at al l possible.

' For specific steps, the T i m , Toward Peace printed 'a pro -- a m of in i t iat ives , " to l imit the arms race not to weaken our deterrent power, but to strength-en serious chaiKres for peace.

Among other steps towardpeace included In the bulletin were the strengthening (rf the United States Arms Control and Disarmament Agency by allottngtoit more funds, planning for the conversion of United Stales iodustrlal capacity from m i l i t a r y t onon -ml l l i a ryFro -ductlon, and expanding research Into the other economic aspects of disarmament, expanding the Food for Peace Agency to permit d i s -tribution of food surpluses, un -der U.N. auspices, to a l l areas of the world without regard to the pol it ical orleiRadon of the govern-ments involved, purchasing (100,-000,000 lnUJS.low-interestbonds, as tlie Presidem has urged, and en -couraging Infcrmal conferences d Soviet and American d t i / e n s such as the recent Pugwash and Siowe conferences among scientists.

Testing Resolution -Quite A Mess

(C<mti*Mtd of whom were attending ihe l r f i r s t meeting, having been elected only recently) would have to vote on which previous vote to accept.

A murmer went ia> from a few representatives. They suggested thai this would In reai l i ty be a t h i r d

vote for the resolution. Peter assured them that this was not so, that tbey would be voting on which metbod, ibe In-councU vote, or the secret ballot, to accept. I t was a procedural c|uestlon, nothing more.

Ed Wing: "Imove that the f i r s t vote be va l idated" . DoiKivan: "The vole was accurate, k may iwt have been legal, but

trom page I) i t was accuTUe. I t Is apparent that the majority of the students In the schcxil is against the reso-lution. The r w o t e was In every sense i l l e g a l . "

The motion was defeated. Then came the motion that the

second vote be accepted. This was passed. Thus, the resolution which called on President Kennedy to resume nuclear testing In the atmosphere, was soundly, though not unquestionably, defeated.

(This had Uttle effect on dw President of the United Sutes. however. See RlckyRead'sartlcle on Page )

The world of wotnen's raahions ia one of the most fascinutjnj; in the field of art , for no sooner docs one fashion trend begin to take ioots than another, more start l in i ; vogxie takes its place. Fashion li-enda in women's clothing can be defined as the pursuit of novelty for ila own sake. Paul Poiret, top Paris couturier of the 1920's, sum-med up his fashion credos in this statement: " A l l fashions end in i-xtexs." When one style trend has passed its prime, instead of re--ort int - to a completely new style, Poiret felt that the couturier muat elaborate on the same basic style. Only after this basic style had been exhausted should a totally new style be initiated or a style from an j j te past he revived. What were some i l lujtrationa of such elaborations ill fashion history?

The hoop skirts of the eighteenth century, for one, exaggerated the h.p line beyond the point of recognition, while the waistline was tighten-•*d to the point of suffocation, l ^ e Jazz Age* faahiontt introduced a leg UispUy. the likes of which had never hefore bven viewed in publ:c, ,'.tso predominant at tjiis same time was the boyish skimpinesa of the flapper's garb.

The most important thing to remember when talking about ladies .'ushionx is that their designs are not meant to be functional but arc I reuted wholly in the aesthetic l ight of design.

When leading architects were advocating functional ism in building j p the 1920's, ladies' fashions were anything but functional. The t ight dresses didn't allow for iiiuch movement and their skimpiness ceitainly didn't keep one warm. The hoop skirts of the 1700'B, too, served no purpose and what a struj^gte one had to get through a narrow doorway •vhile wearing one! French ladies of the court found that while travel-mg they had to crouch on the Hoor of their coaches in order to make ioom for their soaring headdresses.

What of fashions today—do they follow Poiret's basic concept that all fashion trends end in excess? From general observations tne might justifiably answer "yea." Just a few years ago the chemise was introduced, or as some called i t the "sack dress." I t almost was just that for i t had absolutely no waistline. This was followed by i slightly modified version—the empire dress, which had a vraiatline, ;iicated, however, several inches above the waist of the human body. This trend ended with a bang ( in excess) w i t h the trapeie dress which .'.lightly resembled a tent. This trend, besides proving Poiret's excess Mieory, also followed the pattern of reverting to fashions of a past :.ire for ideas. The chemise plus the ever-shortening skirta were repe titiona of the styles folluwed in the J a M Age of the Twenties.

What lies in stiire for the female of the future? No crystal ball �� � K've "ne a rci>ort in complete detuil. One can only guesa what iimuvatiuns stylists wi l l dream up and what fashion cycles wi l l be re-��� ateU.

New Representatives 'Pro and Con

(Continued from p^gt I ) ground erf coming ones. Tbeyhave spent seme time learning p a r l i a -mentary {Tocedure. Simply stated, they are well - informed and well broken-In.

The opposing view Is also well 3Instantiated. U we consider ttie purpose of our student council one ot teaching goverranent, then i t

I would be best to have many people panlclpate. The council should not ge t stagnant and should be revitalized with new studema,

I These new representatives know j what is going on and can easily be

infn-med aboiK parliamentary pro -cedure.

The deflate is resolved as a draw. Both sides have basis and now It

� is only a question of choosing one � and lmpn>vIog I t . This Is exactly � what last year's admlnlsiratlan

did and that is why we are under I our present system. Most of the i representatives are In accordance,

but some are not.

The next qt«stion i s : If we are using this system, what do we do CO alleviate the prcblem of studen Ignorance of the issues anj of parlfametvary frocedix-e?

The bestwayforrepresentatives to learn the procedure used In the council Ifl to be tauglx i t . It would be very beneficial to take one council period and have the par l i a -mentarian Ineiruct the new representatives on Oir rules of order.

The same would ftdlow on the problem of understanding the Issues and their background. Again we could spend one period review-ing [he council's past accompllsb-menia and sisnmarlztog die back-ground of Issues which are i resenl ly on Che floor.

Valuable time wi l l be used, btg I f we are to have a mid-year election, the new representatives should be given time to learn the ropes of the studeu coundL

Tlie whole phTlotoph/ of stutJenf government was put on the line once more as the Ftjndamental qiwstlon was posed hy Kar Moler during the February 26 stu-dent council meeting: "If Mr. Hendrickson can do what he wants with our money, andean nullify any of our votes, whot good Is the student G .

Ptanninf on college? Dreaming of a career in teaching, science, mining, the arts? Wail ! Before you invest four years and maybe $10,000 in further ed-ucation you should study the terms of the new contract won by New York Local 3 of the International Brother-hood of Electrical Workers.

From now on members of Local 3 will work a basic five-hour day at S4.96 per hour—plus a sixth hour at

time and a half. This adds up to S161.20 for a 30-hour week.

Then comes the cherry on top. Union members are limited to fifteen hours of overtime which, in labor-short New York, they are almost sure to get. The overtime brings the work week to a tedious 40 hours and the t o u l wage to S235.60.

But remember! Your country needs teachers (and pays them a national

average of about SI06 weekly in public schools).

Your country needs nurses (and pays them S82.SO for 40 hours on gen-eral duty in New York City).

Your country needs scientists. (A survey by the Federal Government disclosed that chemists able to handle the "more complex, exacting" assign-ments earned an average of $9504 an-nually—about $183 per week.)

Your country is dedicated to the arts. (A musician playing .with the orchestra of the Metropolitan Opera Association earns $180 per week.)

No matter. Go ahead and get that college education. As the President put it in his inaugural address: "Ask not what yourcountry can do for you— ask what you can do for your coun-try . " Apparently Local 3 didn't get the word.

F M - the most p a r t , the teachers be l i eve that those students who a r e habi tual c h e a t e r s , as w e l l as those who p lan to cheat , have a r -r i v e d at t h i s state through a lack of m o r a l guidance f r o m t h e i r e n -v i r o n m e n t ; that i s , f r o m t h e i r p a r e n t s and home l i f e , and as we I m p l i e d , t h e i r teachers and school l i f e , which thus causes a point at which the student is t o r n between cheat ing w not . We do not mean to p lace b l a m e on a l l o ther persons than the s t ix lent , but when a c h i l d sees the c o r r u p t i o n of the adul ts , those whom he should respect, i t is only the s t r o n g e r c h i l d , who w i l l be able to r e s i s t the d e s i r e to cheat . In speaking w i t h M r s , A n i t a I ' epper . a s o c ia l w o r k e r who has w o r k e d I n the New Y o r k C i t y school system for s e v e r a l years w i t h the so - ca l l ed p r o b l e m c h i l -d r e n , we heard her r e l a t e the s t o r y of a b o y w h o r r s h ' ^ h o u g h l i n t e l l i j ^ n t and b r i g h t , yet had p e r s i s t e d to cheat and s t e a l . When she f )ues-i l oned h i m why he d i d so, caus ing h i m a po l i ce r e c o r d and e x p u l s i on f r o m school , he answered that how cou ld she expect h i m t o be honest o r show respec t f or h is e lder s when e v e r y day, he saw po l i c emen caking g r a f t , r i g g i n g of business and the f a i l u r e uf M s uncle because he would n' jt be b r i b e d . How can you te l t such a c h i l d he Is w r o n g , when he may be r i g h t ? So, i t I s a new m o r a l code that i s needed, f o r the adult and c h i l d .

T h e r e are those teachers who be l ieve that i h e d e g r e cs of cheat ing m u s t be def ined, as one teacher s a i d , ' Y o u can ' t assume that tlH^ c h i l d who r e n d e r s h is answer t o another on a s p e l l i n g test , would c a r r y a w r i t t e n answer sheet in to a r e g e n t s .

Those who argue that s u s -pens ion o r expuls ion w o u l d only cause an abundance of I gnorant youths r o a m i n g the s t r e e t , f a i l t o see that t h e r e are those who cheat so r e g u l a r l y that t h e r e are some stutlents who serve the purpose of Igntx 'ant youths r o a m l n g t h e school h a l l s w h i l e In f luenc in g o thers t o j o i n that Infamous g r o u p .

W'e t h i n k i t should be known t o the student body, that those who a r e h a b i t u a l , what m i g h t be ca l l ed c h r o n i c cheaters a r e known t o the teachers , by name and r e c c r d . T h i s i s r e g a r d l e s s of s o c ia l p o s i -t i o n o r " c o o l n e s s " , w h e l h e ^ t h e y are among the school-heroes honor c lasses , or of a convinced " s e l f -r i g h t e o u s " group , they a r e , b y a n d targe , known.

Into MJStiS has come an honor among th ieves , a d a e l r e u be p a r t o f i t a l l , a f ear of be ing c a l l e d a " f a g " o r such , that m a y prevent a b a s i c a l l y honest p e r s o n to lend his h o m e w o r k o r answer , change a n -o t h e r ' s answer on a student checked tes t , o r r e a l l y get ' " c o o l " by cheat ing h i m s e l f .

T h e way many of these teachers spoke, we began t o see i t as a v i r t u o u s cyc le that may not be able to be b r o k e n , (x even w a n t e d t o b e . T h e r e w e r e , however , suggestions on how to ^ffeveni c h e a t i n g . T h e reasons most teachers f e l l that t h e r e was l ess ' cheat ing onregents was not because i t was a m o r e I m p o r t a n t test , but because I t was so s t r i c t l y p r o c t o r e d that no one d a r e d . T w o of the t eachers had the p r o b l e m of a c l a s s be fore lunch , and a Class a f t e r lunch t e l l i n g ' juest lons and a n s w e r s . T h i s was r e s o l v e d by g i v i n g each d i f f e r e n t t e s t s . T h e essay type test was a l so another way to check cheat ing , I noted that I n such c lasses as p h y s i c s , c h e m i s t r y , and advanced m a t h e m a t i c s , the cheat ing was a l -most n l l l . T h e r e are those t e a c h -e r s who use the ' ' h o n o r " system and f ind It w o r k s w e l l w i t h l i t t l e cheat ing , w h i l e others found q u i t e d i f f e r e n t r e s u l t s . The student knows which teacher he can take advantage of. and which w i l l d r a w the l i n e . The teacher a l so knows which student he can t r u s t , and w h i c h w i l l r e q u i r e spec ia l a t t r i -t i o n .

A n e l e m e n t a r y school t eacher In P o r t Washington , who p r e f e r s to r e m a i n nameless , be l ieves that behav ior pat terns f i r s t appear I n the younger grades, at which l i m e t a l k s should be held w i t h the p u p i l . No act of cheat ing should go u n -no t i c ed . T h e r e i s a groiq> o f students who h a v e c o n v l n c e d t h e m -selves m o r e o r l ess that they a r e not r e a l l y w r o n g i n c h e a t i n g s i m p l y because they have not been c r i t i c i s e d persona l l y , they haveno ( f e l t the ax f a l l .
