JEFFERS PART 111 A majority of Durham City Educators, picked at random and interviewed by telephone regarding their; views on spanking in . the city schools,, expressed disapproval of spanking whil a minority expressed . appi'.al. . .1-. ' The survey was prorrtp ted by the recent action takefi by the local Board of Education on policy to strengthen the N.C. law on spanking. The policy was presented by City Schools Superintendent, Dr. pcy eland Hammonds to the board at its regular meeting, on October 22i; Mrs. Blondola , Lucas, Dean of Girls of Shepard Junior High School sard . "I don't believe in spank ing. In my' eighteen .years as dean of girls, J have never spanked a student. 'l have never seen a hard core, mean child:M have . seen children with, pro blems of growing up.' Mrs. Lucas said that "thprc must be a high-level of iriist and sincerity which must be expressed and the student will pick this up and trust you In return. " Mrs. Beth Unchurch, newly elected member of I lie Durham C ity Boa d of Ldtication said (hat "I hale io sec someone other than i he parent spank .a chil I."'. She added ithftt "perhaps' it wc look; e may, find ways to lessen, the iiccessiiy of spanking as'Me increase the joysiif Iciiruiny," MrsnUnchur"li said that she is a member of a child abuse preven tion program and she hears a lot of talk about child abuse. Fayetteville Street Elementary School, accor ding to Frederick Fuller, acting principal, does not use spanking as . a disciplinary method. Children with serious behavior problems are sent home and asked to return with their parent(s) in an attempt to involve the parent(s) in altering the undesirable behavior. Fuller added, however, that "a spanking for some children- does not hurt." John A Hunter, prin cipal of Y.E. Smith : Elementary School replied to the question of spank ing to achieve discipline, "I don't believe in spank ing. At Y.E. Smith, we are looking for disciplinary, methods thaf will become a part of the child." Hunter said ; that the school is now trying to im plement William Glajser's ten steps to discipline. Glasser is the author of "Schools Without Failure", and his ten steps to discipline involve both the teacher and student in a process which the teacher assists the child in learning to become responsible for himself or herself, sometimes with the aid of the parent(s). Glasser stipulates in his ten steps that there are limes when a child may need to go home because of hisher conduct, but he stresses that the child should be allowed to return the next ; day without punitive measures. , . ., ; Mrs. Josephine D. Cle ment, chairman of the Durham City Board of Education; said that she "would rather not use if (spanking), but the state has given, the .right." She added that the superinten dent's new policy will pre vent abuse by both the stu dent and the teacher. John D. Lennon. member of the City Board of Education, stated that afternoon." the publip is invited to attend the sym posium. "Most of the ses sions, will be held in the Fine - Arts -Building Auditoriunlat NCCU. " Dr. r Reid says that among the participants are scheduled 'Mo be am bassadors 'from f, Ghana,' 'Nigeria and Kenya; ambassador-level person nel from Tanzania, South " Africa aiu Zimbabwe ? Rhodesia. the persons attending this conference might have first-hand knowledge of the positions of those representing the now existing i governments in those areas."

Some, say that they now practice the N.C. law on spanking, but they are searching for other disciplinary methods. They seem to realize, as one educator commented, that "some children have serious men-, tal problems, and spank ing will not solve these , problems.
