Ii.NKI.LAS COrNTV began to cut off its public kindergartens in the 1940s.

Now. the only chil dren who may attend are those whose parents choose and can afford to send them to kin dergartens operated Independ ently of the public school sys tern, at fees ranging roughly around IS a month. For several years there has been no evidence of official ef fort to put the kindergartens back. The present unofficial position of Pinellas school officials on kindergartens is expressed from time to time by School Supt. Floyd T.

Christian and School Board members when the ques tion arises In board discus sion. It's phrased like this: The county can't afford kindergartens but the children aren't suffering a handicap without them. PINELLAS' public school officials several times have stated publicly their unofficial position that "any head start gained by the kindergartner will be lost to the non kinder-gartner by fourth grade." Researchers cited in the Chauncey report and other studies say it isn't so. They conclude the "loss of development in one period cannot be fully recovered in another period" and thoy "deplore the neglect of the preschool child that resulted from the fixed-intelli gence concept." Officially, the Pinellas school system says in a 1961 policy statement it "believes in the value" of a kindergarten program but has discontinued kin dergartens "until sufficient classrooms can be added to our buildings to prevent overcrowding in the primary and upper elementary grades." MANY EDUCATORS and re searchers nationwide includ ing some within Pinellas' own school system disagree with county school officials' conten tion that children don't suffer a handicap when they're barred from kindergarten. A typical comments some Pinellas school coordinators and teachers: "Show me a first grade class and I'll show you the children who have had kin dergarten.

The elementary school enrollment has leveled off now. Where are our kindergartens?" CARD OF THANKS We wish to express our sincere appre ciation and thanks to our many friends for all their klndesses shown during our time of bereavement, on behalf of our beloved son, Lt. Col. Leo M. Dykes, Jr.

Sumter County began its big political show with its first rally last night, and rallies are sched uled for every day this week Davis, 37, moved to Sumter County in January when he became affiliated with the law firm of Carroll W. Fussell, who is now circuit judge.

He said he is not accepting any outside money, preferring to fiance his own campaign. "I'M Rl NNIMi on a platform of no strings attached, and am calling for economy in government," Davis told The Times, lie said he is promising the voters "nothing." Rowell has been serving in the House since 19:17, and said he is running on his past record. He said he has served on the House appropriations committee since as chairman of the public welfare committee, vice chairman of the powerful rules and calendar committee and as chairman of the roads and highway committee for the last two sessions. Rowell said that as chairman of the roads and highway com mittee, he helped "in a minute way" to have Interstate 75 and the turnpike routed through Sumter County. Davis feels he can beat Rowell.

Rowell laughs at the claim, but said "I am poli ticking just as hard as I ran."

Clearwater Girl Struck By Auto; Driver Sought CLEARWATER Police last nicht were looking for the driver of a vehicle which struck four-year-old girl on Palmetto Street at 5:40 p.m. and left the accident scene without stopping. The child, Linda Thomas Ev- eritt, 805 Railroad Avenue, was treated at Morton Plant Hospi tal for minor injuries and released, said a hospital spokes man. Patrolman Jack Marsh said the child apparently ran across Palmetto 20 feet west of Pennsylvania Avenue, was struck on the right hip by a passing ve hicle and knocked to the ground. Leaving the scene of an acci dent involving personal bodily injuries is a felony under a re cent change in Florida law and is punishable on conviction by imprisonment in the state peni tcntiary.
