Young Men Moving During national Junior Chamber of Commerce week, it would seem appropriate for Decatur to make recognition of the newly organized club here. After several attempts in past years to form some sort of young men’s organization interested in the growth and development of Decatur, the foundation has finally been formed. One of the most encouraging signs of the Decatur Jaycees is that they have not tried to set the world on fire in the first few months. While they have discussed many projects, and some of them have become a reality, there has been a conservatism of action until that foundation can be solidified. There is no doubt that an active Junior Chamber of Commerce is good for a city. The Allen County War Memorial Coliseum became a reality because of the initial efforts of the Fort Wayne JayCees. City parks, swimming pools, recreation centers and planning boards throughout Indiana and the United States have also been built and formed through either partial or total efforts of local junior chambers. Aside from the physical arid governmental additions and suggestions that might come from the JayCees, there are other more important advantages. Each community, whether it be popular or not, has a certain group known as “community leaders.” These are the people who consistently shoulder a portion of the volunteer responsibility that is necessary to run a society such as ours. These leaders do not just emerge at a certain time and place. They develop over a period of years by starting out with the smaller tasks and working their way up. They are people who are willing to repay their obligations to a community, but often many of their most productive years are lost because they have to struggle through a “catch-as-catch-can” training period. It is the purpose of the Junior Chamber of Commerce to develop community responsibility by leadership training. To put it very bluntly, through the JayCees a young man can find out if he has the • wherewithal to accept civic responsibilities, and either put up or shut up. A further benefit is the fact that those young men who work together as JayCees will know from past associations what fellow-citizens they can call on to help in the completion of some area of civic interest. lt establishes, so to speak, a responsible regiment of young men who, if they have the time in later years, can be of invaluable continuing aid in the development of a • better Decatur.

Honors Program Is Adopted Al College Marian College, Indianapolis, has announced adoption of an honors program for greater intellectual developing of outstanding students. The announcement was made by Sr. Mary Olivia, O. S.F., dean of the coeducational Catholic school. Miss Mary Beckmeyer, a junior, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Beckmeyer of near Decatur, is a member of the first, or pilot, group to take in the honors program. She is majoring in English. Miss Dolores Kohne, a sophomore, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jerome Kohne of Decatur, is a member of the second group. She is majoring in mathematics. Both are graduates of the Decatur Catholic high school. Sr. Olivia said the program will consist basically of assigned readings followed by seminar discussions every two weeks throughout the sophomore and junior years, at the end of which individual projects will be undertaken in library research, laboratory or field work or creative production during the senior year. The 14 members of the first group are doing readings in natural science and mathematics during this semester. They will read and discuss theological works during the second semester. The second group, which began work last fall with readings in world literature, will continue next semester with readings and discussions on history and the social sciences. Academic credit is not given for honors work. Participants will be given recognition at graduation, at the annual honors convocation, on transcripts and in recommendations for graduate fellowships, assistantships or admission. Red China's Famine Growing Alarming LONDON JUPI) — Communist China's famine is assuming alarming proportions and there is no sign of appreciable Russian help, diplomatic sources said today. They said the Chinese Communists, through a mixture of pride and political considerations, have not appealed for aid and the Kremlin has not offered it. The diplomats said the agricultural catastrophe which has befallen China has dealt a severe blow to its ambitious plan for a big leap forward that was to bring it into the front rank of industrial powers. The Russians, having agricultural troubles of their own. may have shipped some wheat directly to some Chinese distress area, but there is no indication of organized help on a large sacle. Peiping’s official press has only hinted at the details of the famine but diplomatic reports say the situation is grave and millions of people are facing near starvation. Vice Premier and Foreign Minister Marshal Chen Yi has conceded publicly that Red China is faced • with the “biggest natural calamity since the founding of the people’s republic.” • Commits Suicide In Plymouth Jail PLYMOUTH, Ind. (UPD—David Lee Bierly, 26, Walkerton, was found hanging from a pipe on the ceiling of a cell in Marshall County Jail Wednesday.

School Television May Be Delayed

LAFAYETTE, Ind. (UPI) — A multi-million dollar flying classroom is scheduled to begin sending television signal tests around Jan. 30 to more than half a million school children in six Midwestern states—but the first several weeks may be test patterns only. The televised demonstration lessons may not start until lata February or even later, according to a report today from the Midwest Program on Airborne Television Instruction, based at Purdue University. The eminent educators who form the MPATI council knew they were handling a precedentsetting event when they first undertook to make television education more available and less costly. Per-pupil cost has been a barrier to extensive use of TV in education and generally has kept rural areas from sharing in the new approach to learning., But MPATI has evolved a dramatic cost-cut-ter. Two DC-6 airplanes have been rebuilt and equipped as airborne transmitters. Baek to Stratovision Stratovision was used previously to transmit signals but it had not been widely adopted. However, the search for away to large areas with a single program led back to stratovision. One of the two big planes already has been rebuilt into the world’s only flying TV station and has been inspected and approved by the Federal Communications Commission. The other plane is in the process of being fitted as an alternate for the first. The work is being done by Westinghouse ElecItric Corp, at Baltimore. The potential audience has been estimated at five million students in 13,000 schools and colleges in Indiana and parts of Illinois, Ohio, Michigan. Wisconsin and Kentucky. This, however, is a number that goes up steadily, which is one of the reasons for MPATI. « Schools participating in the program must be equipped to pick up the signals sent from the flying classroom. Regular home TV sets will not pick up the signal. At last report about 526,000 pupils in 16,000 classrooms supervised by 17,000 teachers were planning to participate in the demonstrations, which will continue until school is out next May. The classroom itself will be circling four and a half miles above the earth over Montpelier, Ind. A specific spot was assigned

to the plane so that all other aircraft would know where it is at all times. The altitude selected is below the usual level of jets and above that normally traveled by propeller planes. Teachers Making Tapes The plane will carry six persons, the pilot, co-pilot, flight engineer, two television technicians and an electronics expert. The “teacher” of the classroom is a tape. The instructors were chosen months ago to present the 14 series of lessons to be offered and they either already have or now are teaching tor the camera and microphone. Tapes of these lessons are ready ahead of schedule, awaiting the take-off date of the flying classroom. Eight of the initial courses are for grade school children and include arithmatic, art, conversational French, music and science. Four are for high school pupils — American government, history, world geography and biology. Two are college-level in chemistry and algebra. MPATI already has prepared classroom resource materials to be used by the watehing students as supplemental to the TV lessons. These range in price from 25 cents to $2. The flying classroom is slated to operate on four consecutive days each week. Monday through Thursday. MPATI educators stress that their instructors are to aid, not replace, the classroom teacher. The exact relationship between the two teachers—one on the ground in front ofthe pupils and the other a voice and a shape on the TV screen—is expected to be more clearly determined after the flying classroom has had a test. Some authorities see the MPATI project as an answer to the shortage of teachers and the growing cost of education. For the first two years, however, the cost of the flying classroom is being borne by industry and private individuals. The Ford Foundation put up $4.5 million of the estimated $7 million needed and the other funds have come from additional sources.
