Schools Told to Stress
Industry More, Ag Less
Georgia has no reason to pat itself on the back for its
standing in the field of education.
This is, in effect, the blunt warning of the Industrial
Development Division of the Georgia Institute of Tech-
nology.
In Its latest newsletter, the
Division agreed with former
Gov. Ernest Vandiver when he ■
said the state’s vocational train- !
ing program “is completely out
of balance”. It noted that he
said there is “a compelling need
for less agricultural training
and for more specialized and
technical training . . for in
dustrial jobs.
The lack of industrial skills
handicaps our young people as
they seek employment, as well
as the thousands of older per-

sons being displaced from the
farm, noted the Industrial De
velopment Division.
“And training costs both to
established firms interested in
expanding and to new firms
selecting Georgia locations, in
many cases, are distressingly
high.”
The IDD also points out:
Georgia ranks last among all
the states in the percentages of
students who stay in school
through high school.
Consolidation of schools to
provide needed facilities and
training is important.
Merit raises to offset the
mediocrity inevitably encour
aged by across-the-board salary
increases are important.
Change of emphasis in the
vocational training program is
important.
And the use of first-rate text
books is Important.
“If we are to develop Geor
gia’s industrial potentials more
effectively and more rapidly we
must encourage new and differ
■ ent and imaginative and un
-1 usual approaches,” it was stated.

COUNTIANS ELIGIBLE TO
JOIN LOST CHORD CLUB
Chattooga Countians who have
lost their natural voices and oth
er interested persons are eligible
for membership in The Lost
Chord Club of the Chattanooga
area, it has been revealed.
A few countians, including
C. N. Cheek, a Mr. Smith and
Mrs. Henry McWhorter, already
are members.
W. F. Jackson Jr., president
of the Chattanooga area club,
recently explained the member
ship requirements and the aims
of the organization.
“Due to the ever increasing
need for a grater fight against
cancer through rehabilitation,
which this club believes is just as
important as research fotr pre
vention, a large membership
campaign has been started,” Mr.
Jackson said.
Anyone desiring to band with
their fellowman to fight cancer
is eligible for membership.
Those primarily interested are
those who have lost their vocal
chords, usually from cancer. The
vocal chords are removed, along
with other tissue and glands.
At the same time, a tracheotomy
is performed so that the person
breathes no more through the
nose and mouth but through a
surgical opening in the neck.
One purpose of the Club is to
encourage new laryngectomees
not only to speak again with a
new voice but to install in them
a desire to continue to live a
very useful life, said Mr. Jack
son. All members are willing,
when called upon, to make pre
operative visits to anyone who
is to have the operation per
formed. Visits are made also
after the surgery is performed
and a strong friendship is the
result.
Mr. Jackson notes that a large
recuperating center is being built
near Naples. Fla. A patient usu
ally spends two or three weeks
in the hospital, but then must
recuperate, in silence, for about
two more months before he can
learn to try to talk. The recupe
ration center will provide fish
ing, plenty of sunshine, a nice
library, recreation room and
planned activity.
The center will be started this
year and should be finished by
1965.
The club hopes to obtain con
tributions and memberships
which will help finance the cen
ter. The club is non-profit and
no one receives a salary, Mr.
Jackson said. Membership dues
are $6 a year, $3 for six months
or 50c a month. The club is a
member of the International
Assn, of Laryngectomees which
is sponsored by the American
Cancer Society.
