Shanker, in an address at the Na tional Press Club, said his 600,000- member union would eventually ban new teachers from membership un less they passed such an exam. Shanker said most current teacher licensing exams “would be consid ered a joke by any other profession” because they usually are minimum competency tests that seek to bar only the worst candidates from en tering the profession. In Florida, he said, prospective math teachers are tested at the sixth-grade math level. “This would be the equivalent of licensing doctors on the basis of an exam in elementary biology,” or test ing accountants on their knowledge of elementary math, he said. Shanker said he would ask educa tion leaders, college presidents and leaders of other professions to join him within six months to create a na tional board, possibly called the American Board of Professional Ed ucators, to decide what teachers need to know and how it can be mea sured. Shanker has been a strong sup porter of requiring entry-level teacn- ers to pass exams on their general competence and knowledge of the subject they aspire to teach. Mary Hatwood Futrell, president of the 1.7 million-member National Education Association, said in a statement: “NEA believes that it is the basic right of the states to deter mine who’s qualified to teach. Suc cessful classroom performance should be determined by a number of criteria. The score of a test might be one aspect of a comprehensive state teacher evaluation program.” The NEA in recent years has soft ened its once strident opposition to all standardized tests, but it still maintains tests alone should not de termine whether a person is hired to teach. NEA Howard Carroll, a spokesman for NEA, said the union favors stricter standards for both admission to and graduation from teacher training programs and better internships. overei; } sports certain jectival “good But I self?

Grzegorz Pi- otrowski’s two subordinates were manipulated into taking part in the slaying of the Rev. Jerzy Popie- luszko. He said the two lieutenants should be sentenced to 25 years in prison, but that their lives be spared. Execution in Poland is by hang ing. The prosecutor accused the fourth officer charged in the killing, Col. Adam Pietruszka, of conceiving and planning the attack and asked the court’s five judges to sentence him to a 25-year prison term. Piotrowski appeared stunned as the prosecutor spoke. He supported his head in his hands, then threw his body into his chair, leaned back and stared ahead. Tears streamed down the face of his subordinate, Lt. Les zek Pekala, and Lt. Waldemar Chmielewski buried his head in his lap. Pietruszka listened impassively. The prosecution’s final argu ments came on the 22nd day of the trial in this northern Polish city near where Popieluszko was abducted and slain Oct. 19. The decision by a Communist government to conduct a public trial of security police in the death of a dissident was also unprec edented. Pietrasinski said the testimony in the trial had shown the killing was an isolated act that damaged the repu tation of the Interior Ministry and did not have high-level ministry sup port. The ministry controls all Polish police. But he told the court the trial had neither “confirmed nor excluded the existence of instigators.” “Perhaps we are talking here about specific persons, but one thing is certain, the higher-ups are not in the Interior Ministry,” Pietrasinski said. He said the possible instigators perhaps are people either inside or outside the Polish government who oppose the policies of Polish leader Gen. Wojciech Jaruzelski. Pietrasinski’s remarks seemed to indicate no other officials would be charged, but left open the possibility of changes in the government or Communist Party leadership.
