These are only a few of the unusual '‘textbooks" being used in the state's six training schools in federally funded reading laboratories for slow and non-readers. Calendars, comic books, boxing and racing magazines. anti telephone directories are other unorthodox teaching materials that have proved successful with students so far behind in their reading that the usual "See Jane Run" type primers seem ridiculous. Reporting successes that average as much as a year's progress in just 41 days and often reach as high as four years in a six-months-period of teaching, the North Caro lina Division of Youth Ser vice's 12 federally funded reading teachers and their aides attribute their success to a teacher-student ratio of one to five. The low student load, they say, allows them to de sign and carry out completely individual instruction for each I siuaeni. "We start and stop with them wherever they are," said Susan Smith, a teacher of slow readers at the Juvenile Center in Swannanoa. Teachers also attribute an "almost total lack of disci pline problems" to the low teacher-student ratio and indi vidual instruction. Most of the reading labs are held in mobile units, where pupils work at various points around the room There is no formal line-up of desks or tables and chairs as there are in traditional classrooms. Each student is usually occu pied at a separate task or project. The reading teachers are free to improvise and origi nate their own teaching tech niques and materials. Miss Smith, for example, w'rote her own textbook on English grammer. using each member of "The Jackson Five" and all their relatives to present different parts of speech and rules of grammer. When her reading lab added a bowl of fish to its standard equipment, the how-to-manual on the care and feeding of fish became the year's most signi ficant reading material, she said, since understanding what they read took on life-or death importance. In another class, boys and girls learning how to 'use a checkbook and a banking ac count were given an imagi nary 50 dollars to spend for an imaginary shopping spree in the new Sears catalogue. Many of the training schools do not use conventional text books. The "Hip Reader' is one of the most popular one with teen-agers It has easy to read stories about sports, au tomobiles. dating and pro blems with parents. Ethel Ridill, a teacher ol non-readers at Cameron Mor rison School in Hoffman, sometimes gives her students a camera to take pictures ol people of suhiprts rminrl campus and then assigns them stories to write about the picutres Marie Strickland at Dobbs School in Kinston, works on the theory that most of her students have extremely poor self images. She reinforces their self concepts with mir . r°rs in the classroom and photographs of students taken by each other with the school camera Ann McBurney at Dillon School in Butner. lets her slow readers tell their own stories, while she writes them down After their stories are typed into print, the students re spond well to reading back their own words. While the average I Q. at the school hovers around 80. teachers like Danny Hutchi soil at Dillion School, have observed. We re dealing with altitudes more than an>thing else The\ have to be shown that a book is not an alien thing "L ntortunatelv. he added. Sometimes it takes the whole time Kiev re here to get the right attitude Then the stu dent goes back to the public school, where he gets back into the traditional, inflexible pattern that turned him otl from learning in the lirst place."

But all the teachers find their work with slow and non-readers the most reward ing ol their years in teaching Miss Itidill said.
