On Friday. "night,- December 9,

first game Clare had a '71-48 victory to establish* a new scaring record of 71 points.'__ _
The Pioneers will depend mostly
on their two regulars frpm last
year's squad, Gerry Fullerton and
Nard Robinette, but they will
have added help'froni the talents of
Bernie "Longstreth and Dexter Hubel.
Tlie Railroaders will depend
mostly upon speed and veteran lettermen. Durand has already lost
one game, which was a non-conference-contest, to Perry by a close
6Coret- of 50-48..      **
The following week Clare will
journey to Shepherd to play the

Leota VanEvery Has A Way With
Five-Year-Old Beginners In School
Mrs. Leota VanEvery, kindergarten teacher at Clare Public Schools,
says that her respect for the five-
year-old child's mind grows with
each passing day.
She's in a position to understand
them,' too, because she's been
working with and studying kinder-
gartners for over 12 of her 27 years
in the teaching profession.
"When the boys and girls first
com'e to school in the fall, 'my role
is as much mother as teacher; they
need help with buttons, caps and
overshoes," said Mrs. VanEvery.
But in a very few weeks, when
Mrs. VanEvery or heri teacher's
aide offer help, they, get a firm "1
can do it myself" answer, from the
youngsters.
"That's the goal we're striving
for, to get youngsters "who aie
starting the big school adventure
lo think ancl do for themselves.
Here  in   Kindergarden  they  find
their bridge from mother to the
outside world," MrS, VanEvery
continued.
Discipline as such, is hot recognized at this level in school, . but
only that most youngsters have individual problems. ,
"We try, not to solve the youngsters troubles for them, but rather,
to help them work out their own,"-
Mrs. VanEvery said. "
"Since it is the practice for the
kindergartners of the coming fall
to be brought to school for a pre-
enrollment visit in the spring, we
don't have the outbursts of homesickness that used to be so common," she said.
"The five-year-olds get to see the
playthings, and meet tho teacher,"
she explained, "and come to look
forward td school in .the fall as a
red. adventure."
Mrs. VunEvery has her Bachelors
degree from Central Michigan Col-
Lee Sowle Photo
lege, Mt. Pleasant, and her Masters degree in. Child *Development
from the University of Michigan.
She spends a good' deal pf her
spare time; keeping informed on
new practices and theories in the
field. ■
The slender, soft-spoken tea'chei
grew up, ahd attended high 'school
in Harrison. . Following the] practice of many young people in .those
years, she took' a State Board
Teacher's examination immediately
upon graduating from high school.
Although she-was under the legal
age for teachers, she began teaching the same year; at Pennsylvania
(Ehle) school in Hamilton township. *
Coincidentally, Mrs. VanEvery's
aunt, Mrs, Minerva Richmond, a
well-known resident of "jTarwell,
had also begun ,her teaching career
in that school years beforei (And
