They're going to
have a lot of fundemental sciences, I hope,

DR. GLASS:
I'm not eure, but
perhaps what you refer to in the Washington
area is the project which the AAAS Committee,
in answer to a comment that was made ~- we
had many committees, but this committee is
actually doing something,
It has, I think fifty thousand or
a hundred thousand dollars, something like
that from the Carnegie Fund for Education
to carry out this experiment and it would
work right in with this kind of plan ona
different level, on a different stnoge.
The idea that they are working on
is that of taking the specially trained
and better prepared high school teachers
most of whom are now located perhaps in
large cities, in the better school systems,
ami in sending them for a period of time
to smaller and more isolated sohool areas,
to consult about teaching methods, the
sclence teachers in those local school
eystems.
