The
Report Can!
By CONRAD H. POTTER
Superintendent of Schools
In response to many requests
through the Nugget and our own
office we are reviving the “Re
port Card” column as a means
of keeping oiir school public in
formed about local school affairs.
We would like to point out that
writing the material is not a mat
ter of information, but of time.
We hope we can keep it up regu
larly.
To start out perhaps a look at
our general home work policy
will help to answer the many in
quiries we receive concerning the
amount of homework normally
given at the various grade levels.
Primary Grades. 1 - 3
Generally speaking little or no
homework is assigned although
from time to time pupils might
have projects such as the follow
ing:
Studying spelling words in the
spelling book
Collecting books, objects, or
costumes for a report or assembly
program
Completing a picture or plan
ning an assembly.
Reading an interesting story
begun in school to mother and
dad.
Intermediate Grades. 4-6
There will often be short as
signments such as the completion
of a composition, arithmetic pa
per, book report, or science re
port by the fourth, fifth and sixth
grades. A normal assignment
would take about 30 minutes of
time. In the sixth grade there
would be homework on an aver
age of three times a week, with
perhaps daily work during the
last months of the sixth grade
except for the weekend.
Junior High. 7-8-9
But the time the Junior High
School is reached an hour and a
half of required homework daily
would seem a reasonable assign
ment, particularly with the shift
program this year. Those who
learn more slowly might well
need more than this. Students
who are studying algebra or a
foreign language will usually need
an hour and a half to two hours.
Senior High. 10-11-12
At least one and a half to two
hours of work will be needed on
daily preparation by the time the
Senior High School is reached.
However, college-bound students
will often need to spend far more
than two hours to achieve the
high grade level necessary for col
lege admission.
It should also be stressed here
that high school students do not
have sufficient time in study halls
to prepare homework assign
ments adequately. Study halls
should be used for reviewing
work before class, doing research
in the library, and beginning the
preparation of homework.
The time for homework as out
lined above is in addition to the
time spent on study during the
school day. For those students
who do not have study space
available at home, arrangements
can be made at school to use the
library outside their regular
sohool hours. The library is open
from 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. each
school day.

FAA Administrator Says
Supersonic Transports will
Be In Use Within 10 Years
WASHINGTON, Wl—E. R. Que
sada, administrator of the Federal
Aviation Agency, said that jet
transports will be flying 2,000
miles an hour—three times the
speed of sound — by the end of
this decade.
Quesada told a National Press
Club luncheon that the super
sonic jet transport “is inevitable
—there is nothing we can do or
should do to stop it.”
Quesada said the FAA is try
ing now to determine what the
government’s role should be with
regard to the supersonic trans
ports, to help industry but at the
same time preserve the private
enterprise system.
He added that the FAA also is
trying to forecast the needs that
will develop with supersonic com
mercial flight.
Quesada said the government
also is interested in the develop
ment of a true cargo plane.
Not one airplane in use today
was designed from scratch to
carry freight, “but we are deter
mined that there will be one,”
Quesada said.

Man Clawed by Grizzly
Bear in National Park
Sues U.S. For $450,000
DETROIT, Wl — A young man
attacked by a grizzly bear in
Glacier National Park in Mon
tana filed suit for $450,000
against the federal government.
Joseph L. Williams Jr., 21, ask
ed $425,000 for injuries. He claim
ed the government was negligent.
His father asked $25,000 for re
imbursement of medical expenses.
Young Williams said he was at
tacked by the bear while hiking
on June 18, 1959. He said the
bear chewed off his left ear, part
of his right ear, partially scalped
him and inflicted other injuries.
He contended Rangers at the
park failed to post signs warning
that the bears were dangerous
and that officials of a govern- '
ment-operated motel at the park
told him it was safe to take hikes.
