Upsurge in Interest
PSU
Urban
Preparing more teachers to work at inner city schools
is the major new thrust in education today.
Student teaching assignments, special course materials,
end added orientation programs are being utilized at,.the Uni
versity to help elementary and secondary education majors
Interested in jobs at urban schools.
“Seventy-one of our elementary education students re
quested and received student teaching posts this year at
Philadelphia, Harrisburg, and York core schools,” according
to Robert J. Labriol'a, who directs their praelicum.
His secondary school counterpart, Heinz H. Luebkemann,
has been placing up to a dozen students yearly in West Phila
delphia. Both men have noted an upsurge of interest among
Students to fill these posts.
Philadelphia, the only city for which these figures are
available, last year hired 189 University graduates.
Many of the University’s education students come from
middle class backgrounds. To broaden their point of view,
Jacob M. Regal, associate professor of special education,
is developing a new course on the effects of poverty and dis
crimination.
“Poverty forces people to live from day to day,” Dr.
Regal points out. “Riots are the actions of people who aren’t
planning for tomorrow.”
While focusing on rural and urban poverty and the Negro
..community -in general, the undergraduate level course will
probe what education has done and must do. to solve national
Ills.
“These problems are present throughout Pennsylvania,”
Regal said. “We hope this course will encourage students
to go out into our cities and help bring some improvement
In the lot of the Commonwealth’s disadvantaged citizens.”
Going beyond the full orientation student teachers cus
tomarily receive before taking up their assignments, the de
partment of elementary education this year instituted a sec
ond program. Principals, along with those cooperating teach
ers who had agreed to supervise students in their classrooms,
came to the University campus from Philadelphia and Harris
burg.
“They described for students,” Labriola said, “the physical
lay-out of the school buildings in which they were to work.
The backgrounds of the children in their classes were ana
lyzed, as well as potential disciplinary problems. Student re
action to this orientation was very enthusiastic, and we plan
to continue it.”
In addition to the course being developed for undergrad
uates, the University will also institute a graduate level course
on compensatory education, to be taught by Regal. The
syllabus is aimed at helping the development of researchers
who will one day be in a position to devise new solutions
for the educational problems of the disadvantaged.

WHAT
History To Cali LSJ
'Good/ Editors Claim
WASHINGTON (IP) Many newspaper
editors think history will judge Lyndon B.
Johnson as a good president and, if he suc
ceeds in settling the Vietnam war, perhaps
even a great one.
These editors say Johnson's place in his
tory will hinge largely on what happens in
the coming final months of his administra
tion.
The opinions were expressed in a random
poll of 60 editors at the American Society of
Newspaper Editors’ 1968 convention, which
this week.
“Inevitably he’ll be a good president,”
said Frank Angelo, managing editor of the
Detroit Free Press. “The measure of great
ness will be the perspective of history on
Vietnam.”
“If he settled the Vietnam war, it will
judge him extremely well. If not, mediocre,”
said J. Edward Murray, managing editor of
the Arizona Republic.
Several editors compared Johnson to
President Harry S. Truman, who they said
has grown in historical esteem in the years
since he also announced he would not seek
another term in a period of unpopularity.
One-third of the editors asked to esti
mate how history would rate the self-pro
claimed lame duck President said it is too
early to tell, particularly while Johnson is
still probing for peace in Vietnam
the 40 who expressed opinions, 4 pre
dieted history would look quite favorably
upon Johnson. Eleven foresaw mixed or av
erage ratings. Five listed the President as
below average. *
"I think he’s been a good president,” said
•V Ning, executive editor of the Buffalo
BY GELATIN GITY
Courier-Express. “1 think he’s had a rather
incredible string of untoward events, includ
ing the Vietnam war which he inherited.”
“In the domestic field he’s done many
things that will become part of our perm
anent social setup,” said Vermont Royster,
editor of the Wall Street Journal. “Only his
tory will prove whether he’s been right in
Vietnam, but he’s been resolute, and I think
that required courage on his part.”
“His defense of our commitments in Viet
nam, although politically unpopular, is really'
in the tradition of strong presidents,” said
Sylvan H. Meyer, editor of the Gainesville,
Ga., Times.
“I think he’ll probably be rated as a
great man,” said Charles H. Hamilton, man
aging editor of the Richmond, Va., News
Leader.
Bower Hawthorne, executive editor o!
the Minneapolis Tribune, said history’s ver
dict will depend on Vietnam, the soundness
of the dollar, and civil rights developments
this year.
William B. Smart, editor of the editorial
page of Salt Lake City’s Desert News said
history will find Johnson a poor president
because of “lack of control of domestic mat
ters, particularlv the economy, and obvious
failures in foreign policy.”
Robert J. Leeney, executive editor of the
New Haven Register, said, “I 'think he’ll turn
out to be a middle-ground president who
integrity enough to step back when circum
stances closed in on him.”
“I believe he’ll rate above average,” said
Leroy A. ; Simms, editor and publisher of the
Huntsville, Ala., Times. He added: “Of course,
the average is not very good.”
