Some are advocating a greater emphasis on sciences, in our high schools at the expense of other subjects such as history and the languages. For reasons explained in an earlier column we do not think that this is a reasonable solution to the problem. HOME SUBJECTS There are, however, subjects that are being taught in the schools which should be left to the home rr other places. Such things as yusehold economics, SENSE OF VALUES But this is not really the core of the problem which is facing us. The schools are the victims of a pervading sense of values that is topsy turvy. At a time when things are a little tense it is easy to make them the whip- ping boys for our problems. Such action, we feel, is unfair. When we say the sense of values is topsy turvy, we mean that, generally speaking, too much time is spent glorifying in one way or another, such people as Mickey Mantle, Kim Novac and Rock Hudson, who are lead ers in their fields. These are the people who most of our teenagers are conscious of, not the Lester Pearsons, or Dr, Salks.
