VAUGHN, Charles W. Thetford, Oct. 79. Second Grade Experiment Is Explained to Parents MONTPELIER Parental concern about an experimental second grade class has been quelled, according to superintendent of schools Alan Weiss. The class instructed by Jocelyn Lambourne of England, is taught in a manner, often referred to as "ungradedness." "Some parents didn't understand the program, or felt that it was not for their child," said Weiss, "so we called an evening meeting to discuss the situation with them." On hand were the principal, Fremont Fiske; Miss Lambourne, Weiss and other school officials.

Twenty one parents of the 26 children in the class attended the meeting. As a result, four children were transferred to a class using a more traditional approach to teaching. The remaining parents, says Weiss, "are very enthused about the program and have asked for further meetings to learn more about it." Also parents have requested that when report cards are issued, Miss Lambourne hold individual conferences to explain the marks. The aim is to give children wider lattitude to explore their interests. The use of textbooks is limited to supplementary readings, and use of the library is encouraged so that a child Cards of Thanks I you would like to thank someone who hos been helpful to you in time of sick ness or sorrow, your message pear here.

Furlong, Indian Expert, Dies in Hanover HANOVER, N.H. (AP)- Col. C. Wellington Furlong, an expert on the now extinct tribes of Patagonia and Tierra Del Fuego, died Monday at Mary Hitchcock Memorial Hospital. He was 92.

At his death, he was still an active consultant to Dartmouth College's Stefansson Collection of Arctic Materials, one of the most extensive collections in the world. In 1908, Col. Furlong was the first man to investigate the Yaghan and Ona Indians who once lived in Patagonia and Tierra Del Fuego at the tip of South America. He donated material from his ethnological research in 1961 to the Stefansson collection and moved to Hanover from Scituate, to organize it. In 1904, on another trip, he discovered the wreck of the U.S.

frigate Philadelphia in Tripoli Harbor. The vessel was burned and sunk by Lt. Stephen Decatur and a small band of U.S. sailors in 1804 after it was captured by Tripoli pirates. Born in Cambridge, Col.

Furlong was the recipient of the Croix de Guerre of France, and many American and foreign military and academic honors and citations during his 34-year military career. He was also a college graphic arts teacher and an expert rodeo rider, winning the Pendleton, round-up championship in 1914. He served with the Army in Rome, the Balkans, the Near East, and was documents aide to President Woodrow Wilson at the Versailles Conference. Survivors include his wife, Virginia, and a daughter, Mrs. Ruth Towne of New York City.

Barton of Wilmington work in the southern part of the state, while Gregory L'Ecuyer, sole State Investigator for the last 18 years, will be assigned to the northern counties.

The program would involve purchase of movie and filmstrip projectors, films and other materials and would pay a clerical assistant for Robert Jackson, who would administer the project. Supt. of Schools Alan Weiss defended his proposal, saying, "We wouldn't be pulling children out of class and saying they're different."

Weiss anticipates that children in the program will be ahead of their counterparts in other second grade sections by the end of the school year.

However, he emphasized that the children won't stray too far from the norm because they may transfer to another school system, or in third grade be assigned to another kind of class. Many Montpelier elementary school teachers attended a special two workshop last summer, designed to instruct them in the methods of ungraded teaching. Many of these teachers, Weiss said, have incorporated the ideas into their classes. The ungraded class is taught at the Eat State Street School. Another experimental program, also second grade, involving team teaching, is being taught there.

U.S. Half Dollar Is Here To Stay WASHINGTON (AP) The half dollar, unlike the $2 bill, is apparently here to stay. The Treasury plans to mint halves containing 40 per cent silver through next year. Officials are confident the coins will continue to circulate. Even if the department ultimately decides to remove all silver from half dollars, it still plans to continue making them.

Despite record production of halves, the Treasury has been unable to satisfy the demand for them. It has declared the shortage of other coins at an end. The department stopped making $2 bills last year because of lack of demand. Robert A. Wallace, assistant secretary of the Treasury, said half dollars are apparently still being hoarded although more and more of them are now circulating.
