(Continued: from Page Two) ~ music supervisor, and such, other joint teachers as required to be selected by the board. Election of these joint employes to be con- firmed by ‘the separate district | boards and so entered in their minutes. Such employes to be re- ported for state appropriation re- imbursement by the district boards in accordance with existing laws and practices approved by the State Department of Public Instruc- tion. Joint employes to be paid by i the several boards their pro rata | share of the total salary based on the number of pupils or as other- wise recommended by the’ state department and approved by the! joint board. (The above is nothing new. Messrs. Tennyson’ and Wil- liammee, former Dallas Principals, have similar jobs at the present time.) District share of traveling ex- penses of joint employes to be pro ‘rated the same as the salaries.’ The state would pay about 80% | of traveling expenses. Elementary Schools Present elementary schools to be retained. Pupils to be transferred, where desirable on a tuition basis’ to relieve crowding, reduce trans-; portation expense, or improve in- struction. Junior High Schools Junior high schools, grades 7, 8, and 9, with standardized courses to be maintained in Dallas Borough, Dallas Township, and Kingston Township. Present courses in home econom- ics and shop to be discontinued. In lieu thereof establish three-year courses in all the occupations and! vocations of life, including profes- sional occupations, to give pupils an insight into the preparation re- quired, nature of work, opportun- ities, and rewards to be expected. A week or more to be devoted to each occupation with reading, mov- ies, and lectures by present occu- pants of the various fields. Trips to be offered to groups. All books, movies, etc. to be bought coopera- tively and left in jurisdiction of the Back Mountain Memorial Li- brary. Course to be arranged, so that same work will not be taught in two schools simultaneously. Pur- pose of this course is to give pupils some idea of what they want to do in later life and help them to select their senior high courses at the end of the ninth year. This would cost a lot of money but would be worth it. Senior High Schools Senior high schools in grades 10, 11, and 12 to be maintained in a Trucksville, Dallas Borough, and Dallas Township. Courses to be reviewed and changed so that while different in subject matter there would be no wide difference in the amount of pupil preparation required or work done. In other words, present courses known locally as, “Slack- ers’ Paradise”, to be strengthened. Subjects required of all pupils such as English, history, and prob- lems of democracy, to be taught in all schools. Elective courses where there is now a duplication of effort, small class enrollment, and only part time use of equipment to be taught in only one or two schools. This is a very complicated matter and would require careful study. The following suggestions are general and not intended as final. Discontinue Dallas Borough: business sub- jects, home economics, shop, bi- ology, chemistry, physics. : Dallas Township: mathematics above algebra, business courses, shop except for agricultural work, foreign languages. 3 Kingston Township: agricultural subjects, foreign languages, biology, chemistry, physics.

THE POST, FRIDAY, APRIL 30, 1948 The students of Lake Township High School, under the direction of their Music Supervisor, Miss Jeane Haughwout, will present the annual Spring Concert on Wednes- day, May 5 at 8:00 P.M. in the High School Auditorium. The program will feature for the first time the band which was organized at the beginning of this year. In addition to.the band will be the Girls’ Chorus, the Boys’ Chorus, the Mixed Chorus, and several solo and group numbers by outstanding students. The first half of the program will consist of numbers by the Choruses and vocal soloists. There will be Folk Songs, Negro Spirituals and popular classics... During the year these groups have performed before the assemblies at various times, as well as before local groups such as local church programs and other organizations. The Girls’ Chorus ‘has grown to approximately to 30 members. The remainder of the program will consist of a concert by the band in which Forrest Sorber will play a trumpet solo, and Arnold Garinger and Margaret Truska will play a clarinet duet. Previous to this the school has maintained an orchestra only. At decided to continue the orchestra At the present time the band consists of 37 mem- bers. A program to obtain uni- forms for the band is being spear- headed by the Alumni Association who presented a play last Wednes- day. The funds from this play form the nucleus of the Uniform Fund. Purchases Shook Store : George Emke, Centermoreland merchant, has purchased the store formerly owned and operated by Walter Shook. Mr. Emke will re- model his present store building into a modern super market, and the former Shook store will be re- novated and opened as an up-to- date hardware and general store. Reorganization This would require transfer of pupils to other schools on a tuition basis, whole or part time, and re- organization of courses in senior high schools as follows: To Kingston Township: alf® busi- ness students, students in indus- trial arts except agriculture stu- dents, Kingston Township A home economics pupils, pupils majoring in higher mathematics. To Dallas Township: all agricul- tural students, Dallas Township and Dallas Borough home econom- ics students, students majoring in biology, chemistry, and physics. To Dallas Borough: college prep- aratory students majoring in for- eign languages and mathematics. This selection is made because of the proximity of the Library. See note below regarding sciences. All courses to be standardized to permit pupils to transfer at’ the end of any year. . Equipment to be transferred to schools requiring it with credit allowed. Since Dallas Borough and Town- ship schools are so close, certain pupils could be transferred during the day or for certain days per week to complete work in science, etc. not taught in the other school. Conclusion This stop-gap plan would require practically no expense for building facilities. It would require transfer of only part of the pupils instead of all of them under a general consoli- dation. Each district would retain high school. Several less teachers would be required. Teachers specializing in a limited field could offer better instruction. D. A. Waters its Shavertown Builders Enroll In Blue Cross Employes of: Shavertown Builders Supply Co., were among the most- recently enrolled groups now eligi- ble for Blue Cross hospital service benefits, quarterly reports of the Northeastern Pennsylvania Plan show. During the January-through- March period, new groups were enrolled at a rate exceeding one new group each work day. Of the 86 groups enrolled, 1 in every 5 carried with it employer partici- pation toward payment of dues, although Blue Cross does not re- quire this. Over 2,000 members used hos- pitalization’ each month of the period, with their savings during that time approaching the half- million dollar mark at $431,313.78. Utilization of hospital serveces for maternity care continued higher in this Plan than the average experi- ence in Blue Cross Plans elsewhere. Enrollment of pre-existing Blue Cross groups for the additional health protection afforded by the Blue Shield medical-surgicgl Plan also was active during the quarter, with March 31 membership listed as 6,166.
