Guaranteed Lumber ROXBURY TWP. An overhead walkway at the Landing railroad station came crashing to the ground this week, the victim of a NJ Transit wrecking ball. It was the first step in a program of improvements NJ Transit is making at the 71-year-old station, said David Judd, rail station coordinator for the agency. The walkway was structurally unsound and was a safety hazard, Judd said. He said the agency planned to rehabilitate a protective canopy at the site and might put up a bus shelter for the 74 rail passengers who use the station daily.

The old railroad station building, which has served as an office building for R.M. Brandon Real Estate for some years, is not owned by NJ Transit and is not included in the demolition plans, Judd said. A 1978 survey by the Morris County Board of Public Transportation called the Landing station "Ugly. Worst station in the state! A severe safety hazard," and described pigeon droppings 3 to 4 feet deep, rotted wooden stairways and large portions of fallen platform canopy.

"Part of the faculty doesn't see computers as replacing them. Teachers see them as assets, which they can control." While some teachers, who do not think computers lend themselves to their subject matter, said they attended simply because of curiosity, others said they envision a day when computers will become an important teaching tool. A learning disability teacher consultant, Carol Sherman, said computers have "great virtue for special education. There's immediate feedback, positive reinforcement and simplistic responses," crucial elements in stimulating slow learners. Computers are not totally novel to the district.

They are used for administrative purposes, such as recording attendance and making report cards. However, other than in limited numbers in the science, math, business and gifted classes, they are not accessible to teachers and By PAMELA M. BRISSON Staff Writer Ask someone to stay after work for three hours without pay for in-house training and see what happens. Usually you will get groans or glares. But not this time in the Morris School District.

Interest is overflowing for a new training session on a subject that used to instill fear in people's minds computers. In pursuing his goal to make all students and staff members computer literate, Superintendent of Schools Harry Galinsky arranged for Radio Shack Computer Center to conduct three-hour workshops for staffers. The classes are being offered for free, with no commitment from the school system to buy or lease equipment from Radio Shack when it launches computer programs throughout the schools. More than 225 teachers, about two-thirds of the staff, took the mini-course last week. Thirty-two of them will take nine-hour sessions this week in which they will learn how to program the computers.
