DAR Objects to Textbooks
AUSTIN (A*) — Jill was miss
ing. She was a princess. You
could tell because she lived in a
palace. A lad rescued her from a
tower and a dragon. He took her
back to the palace on his horse.
“Typical stereotyping of a male
saving a female,” objected a rep
resentative of a women’s rights
group, who want “Jill” eliminated
from a boxed set of first grade
readers.
Barbara Glenn of San Antonio
opposed “Jill” and numerous oth
er story books Monday at a hear
ing on proposed textbooks before
State Education Commissioner J.
W. Edgar. She represented the
Continuing Task Force for Edu
cation for Women.
Mrs. R. C. Bearden Jr. of San
Angelo spoke for the Daughters
of the American Revolution,
chiefly opposing several series
of readers for what she called
insufficient emphasis on patriot
ism.
Testimony before Edgar is ex
pected to last a week, since the
commissioners has imposed no
time limit and 142 books out of
316 under consideration have been
protested. Anyone who wants to

testify at the State Textbook
Committee’s Oct. 9 hearing —
which does have a time limit —
must appear first before the com
missioner.
The committee will make its
recommendations, subject to final
approval by the State Board of
Education, Oct. 10. Local school
districts will make their choices
from the final list of adoptions.
“Jill” and several other paper-
bound books in Ginn & Co.’s
“Magic Circle” readers for grades
1-3 foster stereotyped views of
female behavior and roles, Mrs.
Glenn said.
She also criticized supple
mental readers offered by several
other publishers.
In a book called “the Runa
way Camper,” Ms. Glenn ob
jected because “the father drives
the camper and the mother sits
in the middle. Why can’t mother
drive for a change?”
Ms. Glenn said numerous books
portrayed women only as moth
ers and housewives and girls as
helpless, passive and easily
frightened.
“It is the subtle kind of thing
that is lodged back in their
minds,” she said.

Volleyball, Tennis, HandbalL
Golf Open Intramural Sports
By MARY RUSSO
Volleyball, handball, team ten
nis and team golf will start play
in the intramural arena this
week.
Although the Corps and men’s
dorms have been banging heads
for a week; the girls, Corps fish
and off-campus teams start play
ing the pigskin within the week.
Class A football could prove to
be interesting as the Corps’ up
perclassmen play predictably in
their games.
In League A, , L2 looks big,
fast and with Dossey quarter-
backing and Hank playing defen
sive end, the team plays well to
gether showing previous experi
ence. Although LI and H2 are
tied in rank for League 2, Li’s
scores have been consistently high
er than any team in the class, let
alone the league. They have lit
erally stomped everyone they’ve
played into the ground both of
fensively and defensively.
With Tom Leopold as quarter
back and Gordon Steward set as
his receiver, FI covers ground
with a practiced passing attack.
League C should claim FI as
their champion. League D finds
B1 leader because of this team’s
ability to relate to each other
like they’ve been up this alley be
fore.
Again, it’s the story of a quar
terback and receiver in League
E. Bill Stanton as QB and Keith
Wilcox are a remarkable team
for their long bombs. In League
F, C2 and Dl are ranking ahead
of everyone, but C2 has a good
quarterback, receiver and are
generally bigger than Dl.
In League G it should be a
close race between A1 and Squad
ron 13-12. Both are about equal
in both offense and defense.
In Class C, there are two teams
tied in each league. League A
shows Dunn and Law in first
place. Both need to work and
this could be a case of who can
improve the fastest. League B
has Davis-Gary and Hotard neck
and neck for first place. Both
are fairly strong offensively.
League C is the only one with
a fairly obvious choice for first.
Both Walton and Milner are tied
in first but Walton looks like
they’ve got it all together and
work as a team, while Milner
can’t get its plays coordinated.
Team tennis has already start
ed with results in this paper.
Deadlines are approaching rapid
ly for team bowling, open raquet-
ball singles, open handball sin
gles, and open pocket billards.
September 26 is the day and 5
