Don't learn about hidden Mechanical faults later , by accident." Boards.discuss elementary French Continued from Page One er suggest that teaching French bad political aspects. He rep- lied, "I cannot buy the idea that teaching french has a pol- ideal reason, and there are too many other solid reasons for instruction in the language," There was discussion regard- ing the situation at the high schools. Principal Frank Ma- dill of the local high school. was of the opinion that the high school could handle children who had experienced elemen- tary instruction and those who had not, a situation which could arise if only some of the elementary schools sending students to the high school established oral French courses. He did not seem in doubt, how- ever, that it would be better if the program was established in all the schools involved in his area. The question of whether or not a child's ability in oral French would jeopardize his progress in school was posed. Mr. Young said it would have no effect at all. Mr, Harris said his board was 100 per cent behind the idea and hoped that the pro- gram could get started in 1968. As a result, he said, he hoped area schools can get together so that the search for teachers may start early in the year. The meeting did not come to any conclusion either pro or con, but it was decided to hold another meeting after the in- formation presented had been digested and the individual boards have had time to give it consideration.
