,Murray Discusses _~'-//Federal' School Aid

Dr. Earl Murray. principal ofBurroughs High School and super~

intendent of the China Lake Ele­mentary Schools. last week discuss­ed monetary aid to school districtshaving a large number of federal-ly-connected students. .

It was announced at the annualstate meeting of the California As~

sociation of School Administratorsin Long Beach that the federalgovernment has delegated $1.387,000toward the construction of a newhigh school in China Lake.

Dr. Murray and the other dele­gates discussed public laws 815 an~

874 which deal with maintenanceand operation of schools receiving.federal aid. This subject will bede~lt with again this week whenDr. Murray meets with the EastKern County schools administra­tors in Mojave.

Following the llchool administra­tors meeting. Dr. Murray attended _~_

the California School Board Asso- ­ciation meeting also in Long Bea:ch."!Many of the 'problems which ·face .school boards in conducting goodschools were discussed. Topics con...sidered were finance laws, adminis­tration, personnel, instruction andpublic relations.

Social Security AirsConfusion on Freeze

According to a Social SecurityAdministration re I e as e receivedthis week. many civil service em...ployees are of the opinion that sincethey are no longer engaged in workcovered by social security that theymay freeze their social security ac­count. The only ones who 'mayfreeze their social security wagerecord are those persons sufferingfrom a disability so severe as toprevent any type of gainful work.

It is true. that if one does notcontribute to social security for anumber of years the amount of so­cial security benefits payable at re­tirement or death becomes smallerwith each passing year. The govern­ment felt that it was only fair toallow those persons who becomedisabled to protect their'social se­curity by freezing their account.'However, it must be realized thatthere is a great deal of differencein one who loses part of his socialsecurity because of a disability overwhich he has no control, and onewho loses part ,of his social securitybecause he voluntarily commencesto work under another retirementsystem.

Any civil service employee whois 65 years of age or over shouldcontact the Social Security repre­sentative in regards to filing for· hisOld Age and Survivors InsuranceBenefit. In many cases it is possiblefor one to receive benefits eventhough he is still working.

The 'field representative, BobHitt. will be at China Lake on No­vember 26. in the Security Officeat the Mil-in Gate from 8:30 a.m. un­til ?:30 p.m. to assist personnel onsocial security problems,

Teachers StressWork Habits

Scholastic aptitude is not the on­ly mark of achievement used in thegrading system at Burroughs' HighSchool. Report cards. issued for thefirst six-weeks grading period lastweek, show that teachers placestress on the 'work habits of stu­dents. their group behavior and in­dividual aptitudes.

A teacher decides whether or nota student's work habits need'im­provement; shOW improvement, aresatisfactory or outstanding by not­ing if the students make good useof' their time in class, if they ap­ply proper study techniques, if theylisten. take notes and try to im­prove their habits. Good study hab­its are infused into the curriculumgiving the tea'cher a fair basis forgrading. i

Group behavior and individual at­titudes are sometimes harder for fl.

teacher to define since they dealwith personality adjustments. Anystudent who' seems' uneasy. hastrouble getting along with othersand .who is unable to apply himselfin the classroo'm is usually referredto a trained: staff of counselorswithin Burroughs who discuss apupil's problems with him..' ,

Strong emphasis is usually' plac-ed on the achievement of goodgrades but some people are natu­rally brighter than others and someare unable to compete scholastical­ly. Therefore,' the staff at Bur­roughs feels: that the emphasisplaced on work habits.' group be­havior and in'dividual attitudes ISnot only justifiable but very im­portant to the future' lives. citizen­ship' and compatability of their stu­dents.
