Student Attacks Increase
Teachers Have Backs to Blackboard
By TOM TIEDE
NEW YORK - (NEA) -
The end of the school year
is an especial relief to a local
teacher named Georgette
McNair. She’s relieved to
still be alive.
Miss McNair, 24, is a phy
sical education instructor at
Public School 73 in the Bronx.
And she made the error this
term of offending some of
her students. What she did
was advise the parents the
students were not doing well
in her class.
Discovering this, the stu
dents (three girls under 15)
decided to pay the teacher
back. First they merely dis
rupted her class, treated her
with contempt and mocked
her in public. Then they tried
to push Miss McNair down a
staircase. Finally, they
sneaked up behind the teach
er, set fire to her dress, and
shouted hate while the wom
an was carried to a hospital
with second-degree burns.
“I can’t believe it,” Miss
McNair told police, “I can’t
believe it.”
But if the victim in this
case was astonished, few
others in the city’s school
system were. For what hap
pened to Georgette McNair
is not at all unusual these
days and not just limited to
New York. With increasing
frequency students are beat
ing, robbing, intimidating
and sometimes even raping
and murdering the men and
women who teach their
classes.
In New York there are, on
the average, almost two such
assaults every day. The bru
talities are said by some to
be 19 per cent ahead of last
year’s total of 287. They are
recorded every 24 hours in a
Board of Education report
called the “Log of Untoward
Incidents.” Untoward? It
reads like a police blotter in
a bad neighborhood.
Some examples for one
single day in May:
Two postcards were re
ceived at one school threat
ening the lives of staff mem
bers. An assistant principal
was punched in the mouth by
a grade schooler. A teacher
on a field trip was attacked
with a knife and cut above
the eye. Another teacher
was molested in a hallway
and relieved of her wallet. A
male instructor was attacked
by three students who hit
him with a shovel, a stick
and a broom. And for a five
day period there were 18
school bomb scares reported.
This particular May day’s
doing is not unusual. In fact,
it is mild in comparison to
other logged incidents. On
another day a teacher was
reported struck by a child
and then later struck by the
child’s parent, a woman in
structor was listed as being
sprayed with Mace, a partic
ularly unfortunate man was
named as having refused to
give students money and was
beaten unconscious.
And one more illustration
to bring the point absolutely
home: On March 19, accord
ing to the NYC Board of
Education log, there were
two rapes of teachers in pub
lic schools. One of the as
bond.
The successful bidder will be
required to execute a
performance and payment bond
covering all labor and material
in an amount equal to 100
percent of the contract price
and executed by a Surety
Company licensed to do
business in Georgia.
The Owner reserves the right
to reject any and all proposals
and to waive informalities.
All bids shall be on the Form
of Proposal provided and no
modification by telephone,
telegraph, oral or written will
be considered.
No bid may be withdrawn for
a period of thirty-five (35) days
after the time for receiving
bids.

DUBLIN, Ireland—(NEA)

broad swatches of color,
daubed in the monotones of
a modern impressionist. It is
turquoise greenness as a
counterpoint to drab gray

banks of the River Bann

Neagh—and the stark,
rugged brown hills of Con

It is men in dark suits and
white shirts standing alone
on sidewalk corners in small
villages, vestige of a patri

Dublin. And in County Clare,
on the road to Sligo, a girl in

Canadians slighted
by WWII powers
OTTAWA — Canadians are
discovering to their chagrin
that they were treated like a
Unfortunately, there are no
national statistics on the
scope of such thuggery. Of
ficials of the National Edu
cation Association say: ‘‘We
know it’s getting worse, but
as yet we haven’t looked into
it much.” The only formal
national view of the problem
was done in 1968 when a
Senate subcommittee re
leased a report on 110 urban
schools stating that assaults
on teachers had exploded 800
per cent (to 1,801) over a
four-year period.
Yet teachers on the spot
do not need up-to-date statis
tics to show them they have
reason to be frightened. One
day recently, most of the
staff at P. S. 262 in Brooklyn
barricaded themselves i n
rooms as 600 students ram
paged through the school
halls. On another day in a
Queens school, a teacher had
to beg his way out of a gun
point conversation with five
kid crooks. And on still an
other afternoon, a student
teacher at a Manhattan in
stitution had to worry
through repeated indecent
exposures and rape threats
by two students before being
mercifully rescued.
On balance, of course,
such incidents (even though
they are escalating in sum)
are still exceptional in New
York and other cities. “Re
member,” says George Lent
of the NYC Board of Edu
cation, “We have 1,140,000
students here, and most of
them are good, wonderful
kids who have no desire to
hurt teachers or anyone
else.”
But still the figures are
shocking. More than 870 as
saults on NYC teachers in
the last four years. “It’s
worse than the days of
Blackboard Jungle,” says
one instructor who was
kicked in the groin this year
(and who is quitting the busi
ness). “Every boy in my
class carries a weapon. You
should see them when they
get going. They’re animals.

years—l’ve been a
keeper.”

banana republic by their Brit
ish and American allies in
World War 11.
A new history of the war pub
lished here puts most of the
blame for the shabby treat
ment of Canada on its then
Prime Minister Mackenzie
King. Col. M. P. Stacey, the
author, says king didn’t have
the guts to stand up to Presi
dent Franklin D. Roosevelt and
Prime Minister Winston
Churchill.
Canada put one million men
and women into uniform during
the war and at the end of hos
tilities ranked as the fourth
greatest military power in the
world.
But during the war years,
Stacey reveals, Canada was
accorded shabby treatment by
its senior partners. Indeed
Britain carried on as though
Canada were still a colony and
the United States treated her
neighbor as a satellite.
Author Stacey, former Cana
dian army chief historian, says
Churchill refused to give Prime
Minister King in advance the
date of the 1944 Normandy
landings — even though an en
tire Canadian army was in
volved. Churchill went so far as
to allow the Canadian leader to
think the date was June 21 in
stead of June 6.
Canada was not consulted
about war strategy by Britain
or the United States. Members
of the Canadian cabinet found
out by reading the newspapers
that Gen. Dwight D. Eisen
hower had been named com
mander of the Nonnandy in
vasion.
King, according to Stacey,
supinely accepted American
command of the Northwest
Atlantic although it provided
only 2 per cent of the naval ves
sels there as against 48 per cent
by Canada.
One of the most controversial
actions of the war from the
Canadian viewpoint was the
firing of beloved Gen. A. G. L.
MacNaughton, a hero to all
Canadians. British generals
took a dislike to MacNaughton
and his campaign to have all
Canadian forces united under
one command. The British had
him sent home and King per
mitted this to happen.
In 1940, Lester B. Pearson,
then secretary to the Canadian
high commissioner in London,
wrote that Canada’s status was
little better than that of a
colony.
day morning, “you can buy
whisky any time.” To start
a Monday, the liquor store
proprietor reaches for the
shelf and says cheerfully, “A
man should never refuse a
customer a sale first thing in
the morning.”
Late on a Saturday night,
in a swanky Dublin hotel,
two young men shuck their
suit coats and stretch out on
the floor for a bout of arm
wrestling. There’s not a
raised eyebrow in the salon.
The Irish are effusively
cordial. “Welcome” isn’t
enough. The signs inside the
Aer Lingus planes say “Cead
Mile Failte”—100,000 wel
comes. The Aer Lingus stew
ardesses are all bilingual,
Gaelic and English. The
word for skol, prosit, cheers
is “slainte” which comes out
something like “sloynt-ye."
Everyday expressions, to
the American ear, are
quaint. When the information
operator’s busy, “Inquiries
are engaged.” You don’t get
on the phone; you get on the
blower.
Even religion can be con
fusing. St. Patrick’s Cathe
dral in Dublin, a grand edi
fice, is the showcase of the
Church of Ireland— which is
Episcopalian, and its dean,
the very Rev. V. G. Griffin,
occupies the house in which
Jonathan Swift wrote Gulli
ver’s Travels.
It is a land—actually two
countries —that has entered
the last third of the 20th cen
tury, but at its own amiable
pace.
