One hundred , and seventy teachers and administrators from Green, Clay, Putnam,Owen Vermillion, Parke, Sullivan, and Vigo CounUes gathered in Holm, stedt Hall recently to participate in a programmed instruc. tion division workshop. The teachers represented seventy, one schools in twenty school dis. tricts. Nathan Z. Bridwell, Director for PI Division of the Wabash Valley Supplementary Education, al Center welcomed the group to the lAdiana State University campus and introduced Dr. David Gilman, the project evaluator. Dr. Gilmah presented a cleverly illustrated slide lecture of programmed instruction utilization

Programmed instruction activity on ISU campus was or. ganized by teachers, students, department, research and innovation. Dr. - Gilman will be teaching a class in programmed instruction on the graduate and under, graduate level the second semester Monday evenings at 6:15. An Unusual 16mm film was shown. The title: Programming is. a Process was written, produced and directed by Dr. Susan Markle and Dr. Tieman. The film format was programmed in much the same manner as a teaching machine might present a teaching
sequence. Following the film the group was priviledged to speak with Dr. Markle and Dr. Tieman by Tele-Lecture from Chicago. Several interesting questions were posed by the group. A few of the questions: How long should a child work with programmed instruction? Will PI replace the teacher? Will PI replace the textbook as we know it today? Which is more effective teaching machines or books? How will PI take care of oral expression and discussion when there are so many groups? Do children miss working with other individuals in individualized instruction? What is being done for the young child in programmed instruction? Does personality make a difference in
PI utilization? At 10:30 small groups were formed. These five groups were divided into two half hour sessions A and B. Leaders for these sessions were: 1. Glenden Campbell, PI Coordinator at Garfield led his group in a discussion on AutoTutors and English 2600 and 3200. 2. Mrs. Patricia Fouty, Principal and PI Coordinator for Davis Park discussed SRA programs. 3. B.J.

rectory or in the records of operators and cannot be given to callers.

Vice Pres. Ky lashes at American critics in Paris talks
PARIS (UPI>—Vice President Nguyen Cao Ky, chief of South Vietnam’s negotiating team, lashed out Wednesday night at American critics of the Saigon position at the Paris talks. “I have to fight not only the enemy but so-called friends,” Ky said in a sharp statement aimed at such critics as Defense Secretary Clark M. Clifford and Sen. George McGovern, D-S.D. McGovern in a statement Tuesday denounced Ky as a “little tinhorn dictator” who was living the life of a playboy in Paris while American men were being killed on Vietnam battlefields. “I would like those irresponsible people to shut . their mouths,” Ky told newsmen Wednesday night at a reception given in his honor by the South Vietnamese diplomatic mission in Paris. “I don’t want to get into personalities.” , Express Displeasure Ky expressed his displeasure Monday at Clifford who had blamed both South Vietnamese and North Vietnamese officials for delaying the start of substantive peace talks here. “I don’t know how they make so many troubles and criticisms at this difficult time,” Ky said Wednesday night when newsmen asked him to comment on McGovern’s statement and assessments of the reasons g3ng6 deadlock by other prominent Americans. Ky said he and Ambassador W. Averell Harriman, chief of the U.S. team, were striving to get the talks started-. “I have met with Gov. Harriman four times and we have been working very hard,” Ky said. “We have m&de many propositions to the other se and still some friends berate us. Sex and violence automatically rated as news WASHINGTON (UPI)— From the Old Testament to Playboy magazine, sex and violence have rated automatic consideration as news, a freelance writer told the president’s commission on violence today. The commission reopened .its hearings on the communications media in an attempt to leafn why violence is news, why the unusual and bizarre behavior of people gets more’ notice than their good deeds. . • Ben H. Bagdikian, a former Saturday Evening Post editor, winner of various nev(s awards and author of several analytical articles on the press, was harshly critical of television for what he said was conditibnlng American children to a false world of violence and sadism. The current round of hearings was called to explore violence in television and newspaper coverage of the news, in motion pictures and in comic books. Passes For News “Sex and violence are the sovereign prescription for fixing human attention,” Bagdikian testified, "from the Old Testament to Playboy. This gives them an automatic pabs for consideration as news.”
“Regardless of what they say, they cannot change my mind. If they think they are insulting me they still cannot change my mind.” Blocking Talks North Vietnam Wednesday accused Ky and members of his team of deliberately blocking meaningful talks as hopes dimmed that a full-fledged conference could begin before the end of the year. Many observers felt real talks would probably have to wait until after the Nixon administration takes over in late January. "The principal obstacle is not a question of tables or other arrangements,” a North Vietnamese spokesman said in a particularly blunt - attack on South Vietnam’s position. "Saigon wants to prolong (he American war of aggression, since the (South Vietnamese) puppets are benefitting from the war.” * Iij Saigon, South Vietnamese Foreign Minister Tran Chanh Thanh said in a television news conference Wednesday a U.S. troop withdrawal "can only be “thought of afte, he North VUese have withdrawn bq$s In Saigon, South Vietnamese Foreign Minister Tran Chan Than said in a television news conference Wednesday a U.S. troop withdrawal "can only be thought of after the North Vietnamese have withdrawn and the rate of subversion in South Vietnam has decreased to a minimum.

customer. The charge for nonlisted and non.published numbers would begin May 1 with issuance of new directories while the change fee would be effective Feb. 1, if approved. The petition stated as many as 85,000 customers of Indiana Bell have non-listed or non-pub. lished numbers, compared to 58,860 two years ago. This is an increase of about 45 per cent. Bell said the cost of handling such numbers is rising and that telephone companies in 16 states, including some other companies in Indiana, already made such charges. In addition to the extra time needed for handling and record-keeping of non-public numbers, the petition said such service generates more information calls. The petition also proposed in optional one-time charge for users of special telephone sets, including Trimline, Princess or Bell Chime sets. The charge is now $1 a month for Trimline, 75 cents for Princess and 65 cents for Bell chime. The onetime optional charge, in the same order, would be $65, $35 and $30.
CORNWALL, Ont. (UPI)—A band of whooping Indians scuffled with Canadian police today as authorities tried to break their blockade of an international bridge to protest an end of duty-free privileges. At least seven persons were arrested, including Mohawk Chief Mike Mitchell. The Indians had parked 25 autos bumper to bumper at the Canadian entrance of the bridge and removed the ignition keys. Scuffling broke out as tow trucks began moving some of the cars. In attempt to stop the cars from being towed away, the Indians let air out of the tires. Cornwall Police Chief Allen Clark, who said the Indians "would have to clear the bridge,” lost his hat in the ruckus. A Mohawk woman, Kahntineta Horn, whose brother was among the first arrested, shouted at Clark that if he wanted to clear the bridge, he would have to "arrest every Indian.” "We may do that,” he replied. The Indians live on the Saint Regis Reservation in both
countries. Crux- of the trouble was the Indians’ contention that - the Jay Treaty, signed by England and the United States in 1794 at close of the American Revolution, exempted them from paying custom duty on purchases they carried across the border. The Canadian government, which has not strictly enforced the law in the past, began cracking down three weeks ago. After meeting Tuesday with Canadian authorities in Ottawa, the Mohawks decided to go ahead with their two-hour disruption of traffic on the bridge between Massena, N.Y. and Cornwall, Otn. Airliners periled LONDON (UPI)— An American charter airliner and a Moroccan airliner overshot runways in heavy rain Tuesday in accidents at different London airports but no injuries resulted to the American Overseas Airlines DCS or the Air Maroc Caravelle jet.

The Reformatory inmates under arrest on charges of possessing barbiturates were identi-
fled as Daniel E. Yokubiatis, 23; Dalbert R. Rines, 24, and Raymond J. Davis, 23. Applegate said a package containing 1,000 of the pills was smuggled inside the prison. The pills were being sold three for $5. The package arrived Sunday and the entire 1,000 pills were apparently quickly scattered through the institution, accord, ing to Applegate. The three arrested had only a few pills each, he said. Applegate praised officials of the Indiana Department of Correction for cooperating with the probe, which follows one conducted at Butler and Indiana Universities which resulted in 17 warrants being Issued.
