Dead Servicemen

NEW YORK, June 14 (UB) nh warning against “grief pro eers” who na. families of service men killed or missing in Korea was soundad today by a former American Legion official. The ‘racket is nation-wide in scope according to Martin D. Kell- . man, an attorney and past commander of the 5th Division of the Kings County American Legion. He sald it works in two ways. In one scheme, he said, a confldence man visits the bereaved family and asks for an enlarged of the serviceman. The racketeer explains that the government is building a memorial and will pay $1000 of the cost, but

distant city and tell has the missing rsonal effects and would like to deliver them but . needs money to make the trip. © “Usually,” “Mr, Kellman sald, “families are so grief stricken that they don’t even ask for details. They just comply with whatever the despicable racketeers are ”

He sald national headquarters of the American Legion has sent out a warning against the racket.

Alabama Fighting

Over Candidates

MONTGOMERY, Ala, June 14 (UP)—Alabama delegates squabbled today over which southern Senator—Kstes Kefauver or Richard B. Russell— they will allow to be nominated first for Presi dent at the Democratic national convention. . Alabama holds the strategic first place in the rolicall of states. Attorney James J. Mayfield, co-chairman of Kefauver's campaign in Alabama who is touring Tennessee with the presidential aspirant, claimed in Knoxville that the Alabama delegation will yield to Tennessee when nominating time arrives. That would let Sen. Kefauver's state place his name In nomination ahead of the field. Russell's two co-chair-said Mr. Mayfield “has half cocked” and Alayield to Georgia for nomination of the Georgia

been sent home with report cards bearing check marks indicating they were “above average,” “average,” or “below average,” In broad fields. Teachers made written comments on the card. The system worked, but par-

when they took home cards with the alphabet markings. The new-fangled method left too much to the imagination. After they met with school ad-

bers, studying report cards from all parts of the country, it was decided to combine the written comment with alphabet grading, for the most part discarding the check system. The broad fields of subject matter were broken down for specifilo mention on the cards. No longer will there be a simple check-mark after “Reading.”

More Information

An A, B, C, D, or F will follow that heading now, and parental| will also be told whether their! children understand what they) read, read well aloud, and help] themselves with new words. Other subjects will be treated in| a similar manner. The alphabet system will not be used for kindergarten and part of the first grade. Progress check-marks will be used in hosel divisions, mostly for citizenship and social progress. As pupils advance into regular school courses, subjects will be indivi-| dually marked. [ As Paul I. Miller, assistant “We don't believe it necessary to grade a child's readiness to jread, but should grade his reading progress.” Mr. Miller pointed out the report card is second only to the parent - teacher personal conference in guiding pupils through the public schools.
