Tales Out
By: Bernice McCellar
TRY THIS OVER ON YOUR
MIND — New thought suggested
at a national meeting attended
by Georgia educators recently
proposed the schools be operated
for 220 days a year instead of 180
days, that the children get the
equivalent of two years of col
lege in the 12 years, and two
years of graduate school during
their four years of college.
Twould make us an educated
country, mates!
THE BRIGHT FOURTEEN —
Here are the names of Georgia’s
National Merit Scholars for the
year: From Henry Grady High
School in Atlanta, Hilton Dicker
son, Charlotte Glazer, Leon Ro
binette; from Bass High in At
lanta, James Little; from West
minister School, Atlanta, John
Pendergrast and Paul Pressly;
from Southwest Dekalb, Thomas
Shope; from Druid Hills High,
Atlanta, Melinda Whitman; from
Forest Park High, Mike Cheaves;
from Marietta High, William
Johnson; from Mary Persons
High, Forsyth, Benjamin Zellner;
from Darlington at. Rome, David
Findley; from Emory-at-Oxford,
Tom Dennis of Macon; from Fort
Benning, Mason Williams. (Sad
comment; only two small schools
are represented.)
NEW PRESIDENT — Bill
Hicks, who directs the trade and
industrial program for the State
Department of Education and
has drawn up the charts for the
new area vocational - technical
trade schools is the new presi
dent of the Georgia Adult Edu
cation Council. He is from Flori
da, was formerly vocational edu
cation director in Athens and has
been with the State Department
of Education for thirteen years.
Hobby: fishing.
LOOKING FOR A PRESENT
FOR YOUR TEACHER? — If you
want an end-of-the-year present
for Teacher, let me have a word
with you. Don’t give her some
thing sensible that she might
buy for herself. Give her some
thing gay and giddy that she
would not THINK of wasting
her pitiful little salary on, like a
bottle of Chanel perfume, a
white orchid, two tickets to a
concert, half a dozen hi-fi re
cords, a fragile lacy nightgown,
silver slippers or a rhinestone
evening bag, or silk stockings
sheer as spiderwebs to make her
legs lovely and lookable. Make
her feel like a Glamorous Gal.
She deserves it.
LOSS TO EDUCATION — The
death of former Georgia school
man Robert Strozier, lately
president of Florida State Uni
versity, is a sad loss to educa
tion in the Southeast. I was down
at FSU recently and saw some of
the fine things he was putting
into operation there, following in
the footsteps of the great Dr.
Doak Campbell, and I am sorry
that Dr. Dr. Strozier vanished in
to the Big Night with his dreams
unfinished. As a newsman I
know once used to say when he
read the obituary column, “Al
ways the wrong one!”
BELIEVE IT OR NOT — You
may find this incredible, but
there is a high school, with
grades 9 through 12, that had
only 12 pupils in Average Daily
Attendance last year, and has an
enrollment of 18 this year. It
earned six-tenths of a teacher
last year. It is a Negro school in
Echols county.
CALMING THROUGH — Our
chief, the able Dr. Claude Pur
cell, state superintendent of
schools, is a speaker of clear, un
excited prose calculated to quiet
the nerves of the jumpiest. Says
he, “I do not expect anything to
happen that would close Atlanta
schools within the next year.” So
you can put down that aspirin.
DAYS AND YOUNGSTERS
AND MEMORIES — I was up in
Whitfield county the other night,
and Superintendent Albert Davis
—who has been sick and didn’t
run again for the job — did as
wonderful a job of introducing a
retiring teacher as I ever heard.
“She has taught ten thousand
days and ten thousand children,”
said he.
CHILD OF THE SILENCE —
If you and your high school
youngsters are brushing up on
the War Between the States — as
we approach its hundreth year
anniversary — here’s something
I don’t want you to overlook:
Chickamauga. Read the dramatic
story of the battle, where 34,000
men lay dead in a green cow pas-

ture one morning. Read the bio
graphy of General George Tho
mas. He was a Southerner, but
he decided to stick by the Union,
as Lee decided to stick by his
state. When Thomas made his de
cision, his Virginia sisters turned
his picture to the wall. His
statue is on Thomas Circle in
Washington, D. C. That’s where I
used to get off the trolley when
I’lived in Washington. I often
remembered that Sherman said
some day the South would be
making pilgrimages to that sta
tue. But they never have! The
most grim and heart-touching
tale of the Chickamauga conflict
is the terrible short story written
by the bitter Ambrose Bierxe,
about a deaf child who wander
ed by chance on to the battle
field at the gory height of its
bloody destruction. Our present
day School for the Deaf is in the
northwest section of Georgia, up
at Cave Spring, not too far a
way. If you live near enough,
take your youngsters and walk
over the Chickamauga battle
field. You can help them learn
a lot of history that way.
THAT HAHIRA MATTER — I
have seen a lot of people here
and there in Georgia stand up
and cheer for the teachers and
students down at that dot on the
map called Hahira. For the
principal, too. They want their
schools open, and said so. But
they don’t intend to be pushed
and pressed by every small pass
ing storm.
GOT THAT NAME ON YOUR
SCHOOL YET? — I always want
to do three hurrahs and hat-in
the-air for those Georgia schools
who put their names on the
building in foot-high letters, so
we who pass by can read them
from the road. There are still
some schools in Georgia carefully
concealing their identity from
passersby, as if the police were
after them! Please put your name
on your school, if you have to
cut it out of tin. Please. It helps
so much. (Had you ever thought
of putting little signs up at down
town intersections telling which
way to get to your school?)
