La Crosse schools show strengths and gaps in reading plan
A Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction review finds La Crosse meeting minimum standards but needing to tighten primary grade reading and Title I fund use. The IMC program earns high praise as perhaps the best in the state, while guidance services for younger students are flagged as adequate but needing expansion.

Gov. Patrick J. Lucey signed a bill extending protection against discrimination to both sexes in employment, pay, and welfare. The act adds sex to protected categories, preserves the Commission on the Status of Women, and allows joint parental responsibility for dependent care while extending minimum wage protections to men. Marginal changes include parental consent for marriage ages 16 to 18 and inmate family duties.

Auditorium Plans Four Shows For 1975 Season
Mary E. Sawyer Auditorium reports four sponsored programs in 1975, up from three last year, with the venue bearing all financial risk. Manager Michael Gebauer notes the aim to attract acts that might not otherwise appear, while continuing to fill the year’s offerings. The four 1975 titles include Lipizzan Stallion Nov 5, Holiday Fair Nov 9–12, Statler Brothers and Billy Craddock Nov 21, and Guy Lombardo Oct 7, which netted about $3,000.
