California education officials debate the switch to New Math as teachers struggle with adapting to the reform. State advisors outline plans to introduce the modern texts in grades through eighth while addressing teacher readiness, costs near ten million dollars, and the impact on basic arithmetic instruction. Key figures include H Stowe of Sacramento and LaVon Whitehouse, with discussions by the State Board of Education and Curriculum Commission.

Berlin Philharmonie Creates Controversial New Hall Design
Berlin debates a proposed Philharmonie with tent shaped concave ceilings and overhanging balconies planned for the new government district. Hans Schafing leads design with 2,200 seats in the hall and 17 million marks invested to balance acoustics and spread across West Berlin. Critics question its fit amid postwar rebuilding as plans envision hundreds more orchestras. Students may gain cheaper access at 25 cents.
