NO. 4 THURSDAY, JANUARY 27, 1955 Self Employed People Do Benefit FromSocial Security Some self-employed people still do not fully under­ stand their riffhis and obligations under social security, S.

Thirty two school heads from Champaign, Clark, 1Fayette, Greene and Madison counties spent the morning j looking over the high school building and the new field i house and stadium, After luncheon in the cafeteria the ! group went to the nearby East Elementary School where a panel of seven students from the Fairborn Student Coun­ ci discussed current education from the student point of view. Acting ns moderator was Peggy Duncan, Student Council president. On her panel were Joe Sheridan, ]John Ralnbolt, and Gretchen Tag- j gart who have attended Fairborn all their school days and Beth Burn­ side, who came to Fairborn from Tokyo, Lawrio Alcott whose previous school was Newton, Mass., and Carl Day who counts Fairborn as the 13th school he has attended in 12 years. The panel approached two pro­ blems. First "What constitutes the qualities of a good teacher?” and second, "What are your impressions of extra curricular activities?" The conclusions they reached were not unanimous but they agreed that teachers should have discipline and [respect in their classes, they should ! like to teach, be well-informed j (particularly in their teaching (field), understand and respect the students and be willing to give ex­ tra help at times, Quoting John Rainbolt “There Is no bad teacher; there are good and better teachers,” The chief problem in extra cur- sters how much sharing of positions; ... , , , „ „ . _ „ . , .. a “bottle ensemble".

The administrators present were highly impressed with the keen in­ sight of the panel and several com­ ments tended to the belief that more emphasis on oral expression and panel discussion experiences would be desirable for all high school students. Attending from Greene County were R. J. Warner, Xenia; R. E. Augsburger and Loyd Benham, Yellow Springs; E, G. Shaw, Beavercreek; E. W. Kavanagh and Vaughn Lewis, Greene County; H. K. Baker, Edwin Burkhardt, Robert Martin, Glenn Riley and Thomas Armstrong of Fairborn. Fairborn was host Thursday even­ ing to the Greene County School­ men, 57 attending from Fairborn, Xenia and Greene County, Follow­ ing a swiss steak dinner in the high school cafeteria, the men were en­ tertained in the auditorium by a musical program arranged by Harry Smith, long-time musical director in Fairborn, consisting of a series of flute solos and a comedy offering ; If leadership should be required.'
