Unfortunately few experimental or clinical find- ings are available regarding the teaching of gifted children.

Un- der acceleration a pupil com- pletes the prescribed -curriculum in a reduced number of years. In doing this he is almost certain to place too much emphasis on the textbook, on the memorization of subject matter, and on facts rath- FOR WHAT THE B of M HAS TO MEET ITS OBLIGATIONS: GASH: The B of M has cash im its vauits and moncy on deposit with the Bank of Canada and other ol $ 302,015,952 banks amounting to . . +» «2+ «© « the BofM, well over half of the money on —, CHEQUES and other ems in teansit — representing deposit with the Bank is the personal savings of | the net amount of the moneys moving between a ~ moré than two million private citizens.

Does this one study and ‘report give final information regardng best methods of instructing gift ed children?

There are many variables to be recogniz- ed; much work remains to be done.

Helmeted Panamanians stood guard at the U.S. embassy chan- cery and the U.S. information service buildings—both stoned by demonstrators in similar riots Nov. 3—and at various foreign business establishments. The Panama press blamed the ists who drove here from west- ern Panama in a “motorcade of sovereignty” to support this coun- try’s demands for sovereignty over the Canal Zone. U.S. authorities indicated that as a result of Panara’s help in controlling the disorders, negoti- ations may open earlier than ex- pected on Panama complaints re- garding the Canal Zone.
