By Bernice McCullar
what a nice new shiny romance
she had going in her life, she
said wistfully. “Os course, he’s
only six years old, but it’s won
derful to have a handsome male
of any age love you that much!”
WELCOME HOME — One of
Georgia’s brightest young news
papermen, Reg Murphy of the
Macon Telegraph, whose mother
and sister teach in Hall county
schools, has just come back to
Georgia after a year at Harvard.
He was one of the able young
newsmen picked for the Nieman
Fellowships there this year, and
one of the youngest who ever
got one of them. He covers the
education beat — as well as the
other news on Capitol Hill —for
the Telegraph, which is lucky to
have an incandescent mind like
this.
CAN YOUR CHILD WRITE?—
I don’t mean whether he can
shape his ABC’s. I mean can he
express his thoughts with literacy
and clearness? Unless he can,
there are at least 100 colleges
that won’t let him in. The Col
lege Entrance Boards have rein
stated the essay type of question
for 100 of their 287 member col
leges. Students must write for
one hour on a selected topic to
get into these colleges. What is
more, there are many, many col
leges that are not going to give
any remedial courses in English
in the future. If your child can’t
handle the English language when
he goes to college, he had better
stay at home. That’s why you’d
better dig up the money to pay
a first class teacher in that class
room. A second rate teacher can’t
help your child develop a first
class mind.
WHAT IF HE DID? — Any
Georgia principal could sit down
with his teachers and students,
come September, and say quietly,
“We can have our school known
all over this state not just as
the school with the winning team,
but as the school that turns out
real quality anywhere. Let’s have
it here. What do you say?”
