It seemed apparent that it became lost, and, with its fuel supply dwindling, attempted a dangerous landing on ground. It crashed 10 miles inland. Its plight was first noticed by| men at the Naval Radio Station in Chollas Heights, East San Diego. It came wobbling out of the low lying clouds and struck either a radio aerial or tower, then careened crazily at a low altitude for about a mile, and crashed.

Life Starts Out in 1-B Again for

Miss Lillian Reiffel, Teacher 45 Years

By JAMES THRASHER Miss Lillian Reiffel and her 46th “generation” of beginners were getting acquainted today in the 1-B room of School 31, where Miss Reiffel has spent all but two of her 45 years with the Indianapolis Public School system. Very likely Miss Reiffel taught the three Rs to the parents of many in this year’s class. Although her first primary pupils are now middle-aged, their teacher retains a perennial enthusiasm for her work, and looks forward to the coming school year as eagerly.as if it were her first. Miss Reiffel recalled the early days of her teaching career, and the changes in educational methods and outlook with the passing years. When she first went to School 31, it was over dusty streets and down gravel paths to Lincoln Lane, now Lincoln St. Each room was heated by a stove, and she remembered that, in addition to her scholastic duties, the teacher had to shovel the coal. There were no electric lights. On dark days the pupils spent their time in singing, because they could not see to do anything else. About 80 children, or nearly twice the present number, made up a be-

ginning class in the late Nineties. Part of the children came to school in the morning, the rest in the afternoon—that is, if they felt like it. Teachers in those days realized that many children were handi-

capped by defective sight and hearing or by poor health, but there was little they could do about fit, she recalled. Medical and nursing services in the schools were not yet available. Study was largely confined to reading, writing and figuring. Today all this is altered, not by a sudden educational revolution, but thréugh years of gradual but almost constant change. Even the discipline is different: The teacher no longer considers herself a “boss,” but rather a guide and leader. This year only about 40 are in the first year class at School 31. Many of them sit at tables rather than desks, and go to school for the whole day. Their physical education is much less formalized, and is given in the school’s auditorium. “We still teach the three Rs,” Miss Reiffel said. “But we also have more games, singing, dramatization and poetry.

“Children are so trained today

that they are unafraid to get on a

platform before a large audience to sing or play, take part in a drama-

tization or tell what his class has been learning.” Teaching is harder today, Miss Reiffel said, but there are some aspects of the profession that have not changed in 45 years. “Teachers still must be strong

physically. They must possess self control and a great love and understanding of children. They must be willing to keep on growing themselves, to remain broadminded and capable of change with the passing years. And they must be ready to sacrifice everything for their profession,” Miss Reiffel concluded.
