WAREHAM POSTPONES
FOOTBALL GAME
with Bruce Besse
What with the Barnstable - Wareham encounter being
washed out twice and moved to November 22, there is little
football activity to report. Instead of the usual anal ysis of
performances by the Red Raider football team , this week an
analysis of the institution they represent is offered instead. One
of the difficulties severely hampering recent athletic teams at
Barnstable has been the migration of its better athletes to pri-
vate schools, and so this column is presented in defense of our
hi gh school both athletically and academically against the ad-
vantages most often attributed to the prep school.
To begin with, the town is now
blessed with a beautiful , modern
educational plant for its children.
Immaculate, well-lit . spacious, and
properly equipped classrooms that
surpass even the most plush of
preparatory schools are now pro-
vided for the student. While the
ivy-covered, dark wood panelled.
dimly lit surroundings of ancient
private institutions may have more
romantic appeal to some, the bright
up to date decor of Barnstable
High is far more conducive to
efficient education.
Great strides have been made in
the trade courses offered in the
local high school, but these are in-
consequential to this comparison.
Here we are interested in those
students preparing to enter college,
and the ability of Barnstable High
to properly equip them success-
fully in this period of extremely-
high competition for the limited
space available in the nation 's
halls of higher learning.
The quality of teaching at Barn-
stable has been definitely on the
improve. New teachers coming in-
to the field are the product of col-
leges who in recent years have
tightened their standards appre-
ciably. New instructors come fully
equipped with the latest classroom
technique. The master's degree ia
now the rule rather than the ex-
ception. Teachers are paid more,
but they have to know more. More
strict standards must be met to
enter the teaching profession . In-
centive programs better the teach-
ers' lot financially, but the teach-
ers must exert themselves by tak-
ing advanced courses to qualify
tor pay raises. Any addition to an
instructor 's fund of knowledge is,
of course, passed on to the student.
The town school system is very
fortunate to have a Superintendent
who selects only the most quali-
fied personnel, and a hard-working
Principal who rightfully demands
perfection from his staff. The re-
sult is that Barnstable High has
teachers that ARE able to proper-
ly prepare students for college—
the problem is getting the students
to take advantage of their knowl-
edge, and to convince the parents
that it is the students and not the
teac hers who arc responsibl e for
failure.
In a private school nearly all
the student body intends to enter
college, whereas in our high school
only a small percentage even
