Ch ain letters gi ve some the guilt trip by Tom Mendela staff writer While many look at the chain letter as a getrich-quick device, few contemplate the psychological harm that can be generated m the more-vulnerable person A m•ddle-aged woman who called herself Debhie came to The Observer ofhceS-..-last Friday v.lth a chain letter she said was sent to her next door neighbor. who has been fraught with grief since its arrival "My neighbor received this in the midst of a major family crisis and started thmklng, "If I don't do this, things might get worse." Debble said. producing a photocopied letter headed with the biblical quote.

Thomas Church called the use of a biblical quote to foster q,u.ick money a "m•sappacation of religion " He noted a similar. but harmless, practice is seen at his church when people leave printed cop•es of prayers by church statues which promise good fortune if repeated a specific number of times "People take this to heart." he said "Reh•lon m good, but it can ne misused for mercenary purposes. -even the devil can quote scripture." While this case lacks a victim by technical standards, according to one postal source, the usual form of chain letter •nvolves get-rlchqmck schemes where a recipient will receive money from each person he sends the letter to. who will m return receive money from those on his list. "Currently there are some circulating which •nvolves Las Vegas and Jdewelry," he said, adlog there •s one legal jewelry offer also in the marls at this time While the theory stands as a workable

devine, chain letters usually-fail from a lack of partimpation, as letters eventually are sent to the same parhes over and over While there are only so many people to whom the letter may be sent, the plan requires an everincreasing population who must keep the chain intact This never happens Desros•es noted that activity is cychc, especially with letters involving money "They take off with a bang. then they are gone for s•x months," he said "Before you kno• it. •t comes back And. it is usually in the same form with very few changes " Debble stud she has managed to calm her neighbor, but wished the whole incident could have been prevented in the first place The closest she ever came to a chain letter. she explained, was an obscene phone call "A male voice started off very innocent asking queshons," she said "When he got too personal, I hung up My brother, a born-agam Chrmtian, has called this the Dewl's work "

School attendance: rules and regulations There is no substitute for being there The best •lanned curriculum, the est building, the best teachers or textbooks don't help the student who is absent Connecticut law requires that children attend school at least until their sixteenth ¢16th• birthday The law does not require students to attendschoolwhenthey are ill, but some students, and some famihes, allow very small problems to become reasons for being absent The Southmgton High School attendance policy sets up careful mechanisms to insure that teachers, theschool office, counselors and parents are informed

about each student's attendance and absence from school and from each class The policy provides for loss of course credit toward graduation when absence maximums are exceeded There is an elaborate appeals procedure to prctect the student, but each year several students do lose

credit for needless absenteeism The Junior High schools have extensive student accounting procedures to ensure that students are in school whenever they are able to be present. Parents are asked to call the school on the day when a student is to be absent and to send a

written note w•th the student on return The attendance clerk at each school calls the homes of students when parents have not called in There is no program for loss of credit at the Junior High Schools, although retention in a grade may result from extremely high absentee•sm

Teaehe•rs were quick to recograze t•e benefits to the

needs of their children The skills taught within the program are organlzed into four strands' Language, Study Skills, Composit•on. and Literature The strand organization is colorcoded which allows for extensive instructional flexibility Whereas the four strands have been tied together with interrelahonships in each unit, they may also be taught independently at the discretion of the teacher The fully integratea components, flexible structure and organized approach are anticipated to improve the student's mastery of the Oral and written language skills and concepts of the curriculum

The I•mrd of Educatmon has officially hired Robert Mastrmnm to handle the trainer's dutmes at the three schools It wall be a most adventurous and difficult task to cover all the assignments required by the School Beard in its job description for an athletm trainer, bu_tt the first steizha• been taken to safeguard the athlete's health in our pubhc schools. The Observer has pushed strongly for a move m this direction for some time now We congratulate the School Board for making the move Athletmc Director Dom D'Angelo has stressed the need for a trainer also for years, he. too. must be pleased Actually. Southmgton will be a step ahead of most communities m the state by takmng on an athletic trainer A few others towns have seen fit to make the move. but there aren't many wroth trainer's on their school staffs The hinng of Bob Mastnanni was indeed a solid move His background m physical therapy and physical education m strong.

For years and years Bob Mastrianm was "'volunteer" trainer for SHS's football team along with Willie Mongillo, who has handled that task for a long tmme. Willie has been an mnspmration to Bob Mastnanni as the latter got •nterested mn athletm trmning and started his studmes The need for assisting an injured athlete at SHS quickly during an athletic encounter has been answered by the School Board with the hiring of Bob Mastrianni as trainer. We applaud them for the move and choice.

President Reagan cut Federal spending for education by $6 billion, or 25 percent of the total Federal expenditure before he took of, hce In addition, according to the National Education Association. the Federal government's share of primary and secondary school financing has been reduced to 6 4 percent. the lowest level since the 1960's If not for resistance from Congress, the cuts would have been significantly greater While the historical relationship of the public schools to states and locahttes •s a traditional strength of the public school system, this relationship should not serve as an excuse for the Federal government not to be involved The stakes are simply too h•gh The proper role of the Federal government in public education is to aid states and localities in doing the complete job of educating our young and mid-career citizens States and localities are trying to meet the challenge of improving school standards; the Federal government must provide leadership, direction and resources While perhaps the most critical role of the

Federal government is in raising standards in the primary and secondary schools, the role of the Federal government should not stop when a student graduates from high school We must recognize that in a rapidly evolving socle•. education is a continuing necessity The proper role ol the Federal government in higher education is to provide funding to allow all quahfled students to attend the nation's colleges and umversltms The proper role of the Federal government tn educating citizens who have entered the v.ork force is to ensure that the•, are able to adjust to new employment opportumtles in a /changing economv

Correcting The Problem The follo•mg are specific areas v•h•ch must be addressed m order to meet the educational challenges future generations 1 Attracting the Most Quahhed Teachers Discussions w•th high school students conducted over the past few years have pointed to a significant change in career goals from high school students of the •agf: very fev, want to e teachers In previous generations, significant percentages of students saw themselves as future teachers We must encourage people to be teachers once again One clear problem is that teachers are not paid enough Studies have shown that teachers w•th twelve years experience earn an average salary of $17,0oo per year That salary is certainly not commensurate with the education they have received nor the lmportanee of their role in training future generations Clearly, teachers should be paid more There are other creative ways to reward teachers for their role in society As an example. grants and other fmanoal aid to individuals training to be teachers should be utilized to attract qualified indwiduals to the teaching profession In addition, these incentives couldbe utilized to encourage students to become teachers m speclhc areas experiencing teacher shortages While hnanclal mcenhves are important to attrac41ng teachers, we need topresent students with a more healthy outlook on the value of education We must understand that educetion is important, and that such importance must be recogmzed tn terms of dollars, commitment and appreclation Once we have established that educe[ion is valuable to the nation, students will want to be teachers once again 2 Maintaining the Academic Excellence of Teachers Even the most talented teachers cannot continue to be excellent without periodic retraining and updating of skills Termine[ion by the Reagan administration of the

Teacher Center and Teacher Corps. programs which provided funding for such retrainmg and updating, has seriously weakened our national commitment to excellence In education 3 Upgrading ot Schools Once the United States has made clear its commitment to meet the educational challenges that he ahead, local school systems have the right to expect Federal aid in their attempts to upgrade their schools States and localities do not alv, avs have resources to iarovlde the computers, language laboratorms and other teaching tools that are so important for a modern edu_c_atlo_n T_he Federal government must expect |o pa• fair share 4 Vocational Educe tl011 One of the more tladdtonal area', in v, hlch •he Federal government has proved ed assistance to local school s.•stems is m vocational education As the econom) changes, nex• jobs requwmg different are constantl? being created Vocational education is a proven means to help prepare students for these lobs Because of the rapldl) changing economy, the •mportance of voca lionel education to the

United States is increasing slgmhcantly Yet. vocational education is one o[ the areas the Reagan administration has deemed most deserwng of cuts The traditional Federal support lot vocatlonai education must be restored and expanded in order to prepare our squ•d•ffts f•r the jobs that they will be pursuing- after they finish school 5 Keeping the Opportunity of H•gher Education Available The recent neglect of education makes it necessary to reaffirm basic principles x•hlch used to be self-evident Qualified sludents of all economic backgrounds should be entitled to bench[ gy attending our natfo6"s vol:-leges and universities The cut• m financial aid programs of the past fe'A •,ears.
