Judge Talks to a Young ‘Jury’
Courthouse, Newspaper Plant Seen
Judge Verle Gray had just finished explaining, in simplified form, the workings of the.lower court system in
in the state of California to a group.of people that had
jammed intohis court room at the Nevada County Court
House. .
"Does anyonehave any questions?” asked the Judge of
his guests,
"Yes," answered a female voice from the back*of the
room, "Are you going to be at the swimming pool again
next Summer?"
This was a typical question for the Judge that day as
his roomful of guests had an average age of eight-years.
They were the 38 members of Mrs. Jean Pearson's third
grade class at Nevada City Elementary School.
They had come to see the Peace Justice Court as part
of an educational program that teaches children about
the world around them by taking them out into the world,
A few dayslater, Mrs. Ruth Paine brought Nevada City
Elementary School's other third grade class to The Citizen as part of this same program.
Both teachers believe an hourspentin a court room or
newspaper office teaches a child more about what goes
on inthese places than a week of reading about it would
do.
But even the teachers, accustomed as they are to the
Surprising questions eight-year-olds can ask, could
scarcely have predicted what would strike the fancies of
their charges during these tours.
‘After the little girl had stumped Gray with the question
about the swimming pool, a boy asked, "Do the handcuffs
you put on the prisoners hurt?"
After the Judge explained to the boy that he had
nothing to do with handcuffing prisoners--this task falling to the Sheriff's Office--another boy popped up to ask:
"What do you feed the prisoners?”
Again the Judge had to refer the questioner to the
Sheriff for details, but was able to assure him they did
not get the bread-and-water diet of tradition.
At The Citizen, the children showed a polite interest
in the-various processes involved in getting a newspaper
from pieces of typewritten copy and photographs into the
completed product ready for distribution.
But this interest turned from polite to lively only when
they were shown the machine that folds the paper. “Run
it some more, " they begged after a member.of The Citizen staffhad run about 20 scrap copies through for them.
They repeated this cry after another dozen went througtr
the machine and probably would have uttered it still
anothertimeif Mrs, Paine hadn't decided it was time to
retum to the classroom, ;
Tothe traditional Three R's, you can add the modem
Three L's--Leaming by Looking and Listening.
