Mattox’s office received a letter last week from Service Employees International Local 706, calling for an investigation of the center’s ac tions, Christopher said Wednesday. The union on Sept. 1 ended a two-month protest against the center and about 150 striking employees offered to return to work uncondi tionally. Griffin, a 1956 graduate of Texas A&M, has held many posts since be ginning at NASA in 1964. He was a flight director in Mission Control on all 11 Apollo missions and lead flight director in Apollos 12, 15 and 17. Griffin assumed his current post as director of Johnson Space Center on Aug. 8, 1982. In May 1985, Griffin was named Distinguished Alumnus of Texas A&M. Texas said to be best in biiinguai education Associated Press EE PASO — Bilingual education in this border city and some other Texas school districts is treated “very much differently” than in other areas of the country, which has led to alternative teaching methods that have produced great success, educa tion officials said Thursday. “We’ve seen our kids growing by leaps and bounds,” Rosita Apodaca, bilingual education consultant for the El Paso Independent School Dis trict, said of the variety of ap proaches used to teach non-English speaking students in her district. “We feel we’re very successful be cause of the many ways we attack the problem,” Apodaca said. In New York Thursday, Secretary of Education William J. Bennett said he plans to press for changes in the nation’s bilingual education pro gram to give school districts more flexibility on what teaching methods to employ. The law currently requires that the Education Department spend 96 percent of its $139 million-a-year in bilingual aid helping schools teach children basic courses in their native language while also trying to teach them English. The El Paso district, using state and local funds, already offers a break from the transitional teaching method in a “high-intensity lan guage training program” in eight of its secondary schools, Apodaca said. Another Texas district that has gained impressive results in educat ing Hispanic children by using seve ral approaches is in McAllen, said Carol Pendas Whitten of the Office of Bilingual Education and Minority Language Affairs in Washington, D.C. She said she saw the immersion technique of teaching bilingual edu cation working well in McAllen on a recent visit there. “However, I would like to say also that McAllen, Texas, was probably the best bilingual education pro gram that we saw,” she said at a news conference at the Department of Ed ucation. The English-immersion experi ment in Texas grew out of a 1981 state law that directed the Texas Ed ucation Department to study alter native methods of helping teach chil dren with limited English-speaking ability. Approximately 20 percent of el ementary and secondary El Paso dis trict students are enrolled in biling ual education. “We’ve been teaching bilingual education for many years,” Alpo- daca said. “El Paso is known to have the Cadillac program in the state.” SCHULMAN THEATRES Entertaining The Brazos Valley Since 1926 *N0W OPEN • Plaza 3 located at 226 Southwest Pkwy.
