And Maxey writes her letters and tells
her these things are happening.
"The facts are that Maxey was cut
when he and another inmate had a
fight. Both of them entered into the
fight willingly. He had eight stitches
and his eye was not injured. We haven't
been able to take action because Maxey
refuses to cooperate."

Education factors studied
The National Association of Secon
dary School Principals and the National
Education Association began work on
July 22 "and on a joint project aimed at
establishing "conditions necessary for
successful teachinglearning in sec
ondary schools and the roles of teachers
and principals."
The goal is to publish guidelines in
the Spring of 1986 which will be made
available to teachers and principals
throughout the nation.
"As America is beginning to recognize
that teachers and principals are the
key factors in successful learning, it's
most useful that our two organizations
develop these guidelines to assist sec
ondary school students," said Scott
Thomson, executive director of NASSP.
The initial two-day meeting at NEA
July 22-23 worked toward identifying
the necessary elements for effective
secondary schools.
