DURHAM, NORTH CAROLINA
Durham County
Leadership
Training Area
Durham County is one of the
pilot areas in which the Pines
of Carolina Girl Scout Council
will launch a significant new
approach to adult education—
the Girl Scout Organization's
Leader Training Design.
It is through the Girl Scout
leader that Girl Scouting
achieves its purpose; therefore,
a new, more flexible training
design has been developed
which is based on the most up
to-date principles of adult edu
cation and gives leaders recur
ring opportunities to assess
their strengths and needs at
any given point in time.
The design involves three
steps: 1. Diagnosis of needs,
2. Learning Activities, and 3.
Sharing Activities. It will make
it possible for leaders to learn
in a manner more in harmony
with the way the Girl Scout
organization expects them to
teach and work with girls. But
most important the leader
training design is a plan to help
leaders learn how to help
themselves.
Dr. Malcolm S. Knowles.
Professor of Education and
General Consultant in Adult
Education at Boston University,
was appointed Senior Consul
tant to the project staff which
developed the leader training
design and piloted the project
in six different types of Girl
Scout Councils throughout the
United States. In discussing the
significance of the training de
sign he said . . from my ex
perience in 31 years of tests
and leadership development, I
stand before you with the
greatest sincerity to say that
this leader Training Project
has been the single most ex
citing, most rewarding, most
creative, I think, of any of the
projects I have engaged in."
Pines of Carolina Girl Scout
Council will launch the new
leader training design in Dur
ham January 9. Wake and
Cumberland Counties are also
pilot areas for a period of one
year after which the design
will be offered in all 19 coun
ties of the Council.
Persons interested in attend
ing the leader training design
should register with Miss Caro
lyn Lehman. P. O. Box 9028,
Raleigh, N.C. 27603.
Blood Clotting
Matter Being
Saved at UNC
CHAPEL—A new use for a
medical deep-freeze technique
is making it possible to sal
vage a precious clotting sub
stance from blood plasma pre
viously thought to have lost its
clotting activity during stor
age.
The salvaged substance—an
tihemophilic factor, called AHF
—is becoming increasingly im
portant in the treatment of
hemophiliacs ("bleeders").
Two pathologists at the Uni
versity of North Carolina Schoo'
of Medicine have found that
cryoprecipitation will freeze the
AHF out of aged blood plasma
Normally, plasma (the fluid
portion of blood) stored by
blood banks is sold in bulks t
commercial processors after 21
days on the shelf. The aged
plasma was believed to have
po clotting activity.
Now with cryoprecipitation,
Dr Robert D. Langdell and Dr
Roy A Weaver here have de
veloped a new source of AHF
The salvaged clotting ingre
dient is only about one-fourth
as potent as AHF from fre*'
plasma, but it is being re
claimed from plasma otherwise
useless in treating bleeders.
The salvaged AHF concen
trate is used for patients with
classic hemophilia, while the
remaining plasma is still use
ful for patients with Christmas I
disease (another, less common 1
form of hemophilia).

Success In Helpin
Nearly s r ooo
Persons are
Given Jobs
WASHINGTON Nearly 5,-
000 disadvantaged persons
mostly Negroes have been
retained and placed in jobs
through a "self-help" program
launched almost 4 year ago by
a Philadelphia minister.
The program is the Oppor
tunities Industrialization Cen
ters (OIC) now operating in 9
major areas across the Nation
and the founder is the Rev.
Leon Sullivan.
Nearly 20,000 residents of
city ghettos have entered the
9 major centers and, in addi
tion to those already placed
in jobs, 4,500 others are cur
rently undergoing training.
Still others have been re
ferred to appropriate agencies
for special assistance, accepted
immediate em p loyment or
dropped out of the program.
The OIC program is covered
in depth in a U. S. Department
of Labor monograph, fourth of
a series focusing on Federally
supportjd manpower activities
throughout the country.
Philadelphia, the first of the
centers, is the largest. In 3%
years of operation, 3,600 per
sons have been placed in jobs,
with 98 percent of them land
ing jobs in their skill areas.
There are currently 1,400
enrolled in the Philadelphia
program and there's a waiting
list of some 6,000.
The 3,600 newly employed
workers, says the monograph
"are now adding more than $8
million annually to the pur
chasing power of the city." The
The cost of training each per
son is about S9OO.
All told, there are 60 inde
pendent and active centers, in
cluding the major ones in Phil
adelphia, Erie and Harrisburg,
Pa.; Roanoke, Va.; Washington,
D. C.; Menlo Park, Calif.; Seat
tle, Wash.; Little Rock, Ark.,
and Okalahoma City, Okla.
Training courses vary with
each locale, but typical are of
fice practices, IBM key-punch,
brick masonry, machine main
tenance, restaurant practices
and commercial cooking.
The OIC program, begun in
an old jailhouse in the heart
of North Philadelphia's main
poverty section, consists of re
cruitment, counseling, remedi
ation, vocational training and
job placement.
