— NOTICE — — residents of Milford have complained to the town board that the practice of children going from door to door immediately preceding Halloween each year for the purpose of “Trick or Treat" calls has become a. nuisance. Tht town board is of the unanimous opinion that this practice of “Trick or Treat” is a worthwhile and proper practice and activity for children. In the past this activity has commenced too far in advance of Halloween night, and is continued over too long a period. Therefore, the town board designates October 29 and October 30. 1965. inclusive, as “Trick or Treat” days only, and requests the cooperation of both parents and children. Both parents and children are reminded that the curfew, law /.-ill be stricty enforced. All children should be home before 10 p.m. MERRIL RINK ’ CARL DUNCAN DARRELL ORN Town Board of Trustees By REG

Psychometrist Talks At Lakeland Board Meeting Tuesday; Principals Report
The psychometrist of the Lakeland schools talked at the board meeting Tuesday evening and explained to the board members and others present her duties. The psychometrist, Mrs. Leo (Betty) Kowallik explained to those present that the psychological ser- , vices of the Lakeland community [School Corporation are “An integrd ; part of the pupil, personnel service in the total guidance program. | Guidance is the process which ' assists the students to understand [both himself and others better and to develop more realistic goals and , wholesome attitudes. I “One of our goals of this guidance program is to help all the students develop a greater understanding of their abilities, aptitudes and interests so that they are able to obtain the optimal from their school environment. The ultimate goal is to help all the students reach their maximum potential as individual human beings and as effective members of society. Guidance is a continuing program for the student from his pre-kinder-garten experiences through postgraduate studies. The basic philosophy of the- psychological services is that no one has the right to make educational, psychological or social demands upon a student beyond his ability to achieve. Psychological testing, observation, counseling and conferences are to ascertain and assess the studen's ability in these areas". The Syracuse and Milford guidance director, Jerry Deeter, was a’so present and explained the PSAT and SAT tests given to juniors and seniors. The PSAT is a preliminary scholastic aptitude test a ndis for the juniors. It is a practice test and compares the person with others in the nation. The SAT test is the scholastic aptitude and is for seniors. It is a must for college entrance. Superintendent Lewis S. Immel told of Robert Ahms work in the corporation schools as speech and hearing therapist. This is the first year for a teacher of this type in the corporation, h owev er, Mr. Ahms has wwked with the children in summer school for the past two years. i The psychometrist explained her [ profession was not a “fly by night ! thing” it requires many hours of study beyond the master’s degree. Psychometrist are few and far between. Sex, Religion. Patrotism Mrs. Kowallik stated there was only one question on the tests she ; gives that might be considered a patriotic question. “Who discovered America?” No questions are asked i on sex or religion. She works in aH grade levels, however, mostly in tihe elementary schools. Robert Cromlick of Turkey Creek township was present and asked about the test with the sex. religious and patriotic questions. He was told this is published by SRA and is not a test but a vouth inventory. It is designed to detect a diveation to the extreme and is used mostly in the larger cities. It is not used in the Lakeland schools. Mrs. Betty Dust asked about correct answers on the test and was told there were none. Questions are answered yes or no but are not rirfvt or wrong. ’ Following additional discussion

THE MAIL-JOURNAL
the subject was dropped because it does not apply to Lakeland students since the test is not used here. Special Education The special education or M-l class was discussed. Children between eight and 12 with an IQ between 50 and 79 are eligible for the M-l class. However, the class now being conducted at Milford can handle 12 students and many more could use the special education if the room and the teachers were available. An M-2 class is for children from 12 to 16. No such class is operated at the present time in the Lakeland corporation. Mr. Cromlick asked if any questions on the test invaded the privacy of the home. The answer was no. He then asked if they were having problems with a child and wanted to test him if the parent would be contacted first. Edgar Speer, elementary principal at Syracuse and corporation elementary coordu.ator stated the principal would first be contacted and he would in tom either write to or call, the parent. It was mentioned in the past these tests had been given without the parent's consent. Mrs. Kowallik stated she was on a part-time basis last year as psychometrist and did her testing on Saturday, therefore tlie parents even had to bring their children to her and return later to pick them up. They would not give I a test of this type without the parent's consent. When asked if he [could see thevtost they gave his i child he was told he could see one : like it. The reason — to protect the test. The parents used to be allowed to see, the test but when they started coping the items to each answers to other children it j was stopped Mrs. Dust asked what was gained Iby asking how many children have divorced parents? Following a short discussion on this board members requested she take the problem to the school principal. PrincipaFs Reports AU six Lakeland principals re- [ ported on attending several meetings with their teachers and on class room visitations.
