Educator Says Counseling, Guidance
Program Will Aid American Schools
American schools have millions
of customers whom they fit with
educational equipment but so far
nobody has taken enough time to
find out how much of the equip
ment the customers use.
That situation, said Dr. Clifford
P. Froehlich of the U. S. Office
of Edrcation, is one that a good
guidance and counseling program
can help correct.
He, along with about 250 other
school people from 15 middle
western states, launched a three
day conference at the University
of Nebraska Wednesday on the
general problem of training
school guidance and counseling
personnel.
Bedell Directs.
Dr. Ralph C. Bedell of the
University of Nebraska Teachers
college, "director of the confer
ence, reported surveys reveal
teachers in this area consider
counseling and guidance the num
ber one need of most local school
systems.
But teachers and school admin
istrators who might have ex
pected a counseling and guidance
unit to be installed like a new
motion picture projector in their
schools got a jolt from Dr. Froe
lich. Much of the work, he said,
will have to be done by teachers,
administrators, and even school
board members.
"A good guidance and counsel
ing program," he said, "runs, not
from the effort of the person who
heads it, but from the efforts of
the whole staff."
Four Benefits.
Four broad benefits that a
good guidance program will give
are: Assistance to the teacher in
understanding the pupil; help in
teaching the pupil; service to the
administration, especially in plan
ning courses of study, and re
search, including follow-ups to
learn what graduates think of the
education they received and
community survey to learn needs
to be fulfilled.
. The conference here is one of

and programs for pupils over the

"The workshop seminars were
started to heln Nebraska edu
cators improve teaching and en
able schools to contribute more
usefully to community life," Dr.
Sorenson said.
"Throueh concentrated discus
sion and study over a period of
eight weeks the workshop sem
inars (1) reduce the usual time
las between research and proac
tive; and (2) obtain a practical
appraisal of our research from
those who must put it into prac
tice.
"Thf workshon seninars are a
truly remarkable example of the
co-operative desire of Nebraska
teachers and the university to
four being held thruout the na
tion in co-operation with the U.S.
Office of Education. A compila
tion of the-findings will be sub
mitted to Washington lor use in
a national conference to be held

oslovakian ambassador to the

Slavik resigned his ambassador
post at the time of the communist

among the early leaders of that
country who founded the demo
