Mr. Wheeler said that all but one of the pupils thought the classes had been bene- ficial, and all the parents were convinced of their ef- flcacy. Students who couldn’t be “matched” for the classes, were disappointed, Mr. Wheeler said, and those who attended "were eager for exams after six weeks." Perhaps the most convinc- ing tribute, Mr. Wheeler said. came when the pupils asked him to continue the classes at the end of the six weeks. When he informed them that he thought they had gone on long enough, the students came up with a proposition: they would pay him 25 cents each a week if he would continue to have them.

The lone girl,.who hadn't felt she had benefitted from the classes, had relied solely on the study group for any work she did, Mr. Wheeler said. Mr Wheeler said the de~ termining factors for the pupils’ progress lay in the fact that there were no disâ€" tractions. such as TV and radio at the school, the at- mosphere was conducive to study, proper equipment was available and the students had their own desks at which to work. He said there had been some falling off in some of the students‘ work since the conclusion of the experi- ment. which would seem to indicate “there were some who need the constant know- ledge there is someone (sup- ervisor) there."
