Thursday, October 25, 1923 T HE TAR HEEL Tar Heels Are Determined To Lick Conquerors df Notre Dame Clash of Tar Heels and Georgia Tech. Here Saturday Will Be First Time Tech Has Invaded Northern Section of Confer ence in Years. " The University football squad went to work this week with the determina tion to put up its best fight of the season against Georgia Tech- here ; Saturday, when the Southern Con ference champs and conquerors of Notre Dame invade Kenan Memorial Stadium for the first time. ' The Golden Tornado will leave its home field for the second and last time this season in order to do battle with the Tar Heels. It will also be the first time in years that Tech has invaded the northern section of the Conference. The Tar Heels gave the Yellow Jackets the fight of their lives on Grant Field in Atlanta last year. The' Tar Heels lost 13 to 0, but,- as one ' famous Atlanta sports writer said, it was tne naruest, xuugm, iu w v ever seen in the South. Thisvyear the Tar Heels .have a stronger b'ackfield than they were able to muster last year. Their line, perhaps, is -weaker than last season. Taken all in all, however, Tar Heel supporters believe they have a strong er team than last year's. , The Tar Heels ; walloped Wake Forest 65 to 0 as the season's opener and they beat Maryland 26 to 19. But they lost to Harvard 20 to 0 and to V. P. I. by the close score of 14 to 16. They have been pointing for the Tech game all along, and, while the odds favor the Tornado, the Tar Heels are counting on staging the sort of upset that happened last Sat urday when V. M. I. beat" Virginia af ter the Cavaliers on the previous Sat had tied Princeton and won a moral victory. Tech this season has defeated V. M. L, Tulane and Notre Dame. That J r.-m VvrtxrrT-irl rmPstlftH that Tech has a powerful football team Can the Tar Heels , stop them ? It will . be the biggest home game of the year for the Tar Heels. In- j;ntiAr,o orp fhat it will draw a crowd of between 25,000 and 30,000. The record football crowd for the state to' date was reached, last Thanks giving when North Carolina and Vir ginia opened the -new . .Xenan .Mem orial Stadium here with 28,000. The eridiron rivalry of North Car olina and Tech covers a period of 13 rears during which they have met three times. Tech has been the win ner by close scores.

School Life. ART ON PARITY WITH ACADEMIC SUBJECTS In 80 institutions maintained in the United : States -for. the -education and training of the blind, 6,084 pupils re ceived instruction during the school year 1926-27, as shown by United States Bureau of Education Bulletin 1928, No. 9, The figures represent an increase of 22 per cent over the en rollment in 1918. Graduates from the high school department of such insti tutions numbered -177, of whom 101 were boys and 76 were girls. Instruc tion in instrumental music during the year was given to 2,688 pupils, vocal instruction to 2,729; and 3,499 were enrolled in industrial courses. Chil dren in kindergarten classes num bered 336. Of institutions included in the re port, 47 are State supported,' 21 are schools or classes in city school sys tems, 5 are private institutions, and 5 others are private institutions receiv ing some State aid; 1 school is lo cated in the Philippine Islands, and 1 in Porto Rico.' Both biind and deaf children are accepted in 17 of the schools. Of the 863 instructors em ployed in institutions for the blind, 220" are men, and 643 are women. This is an increase over 1918 of 19 male instructors and of 122 female instructors. Total' expenditures of the 67 in stitutions which reported . this item imounted to $3,993,404. They possess ed permanent endowments of $5,707,168. The value of buildings and grounds was $17,283,141; equip ment, including libraries, $2,151,091.

Regular courses for teachers of the blind are offered in two institutions, and George Pea- body College for Teachers, Nashville, Tenn., gives special summer courses for teachers of the blind and semi blind. V . - , COMMERCIAL GRADUATES FOL LOW COMMERCIAL PURSUITS That graduates of high school com mercial courses are ' more likely to follow commercial pursuits than are graduates of college preparatory courses to enter college is indicated by a recent statewide survey con ducted by the Connecticut Board of Education, involving the postgraduate records of 2,780 graduates of Con necticut high schools. . The survey showed that 77 per cent of the grad uates from high school commercial courses in Connecticut were actually engaged in , commercial occupations, whereas only 63 per cent -of the grad uates from high school college pre paratory courses had entered higher institutions. Because of the value to the child as an individual and as a citizen, art is placed on a parity with academic subjects in Lincoln Platoon School, South Bend, Ind., and it becomes an integral part of the child's school life. Pupils work in" a room particularly adapted to needs of drawing classes, with necessary paraphernalia, includ ing facilities for applied arts. To de velop an interest m civic improve ment, architecture, and in home plan ning, art study is related through problems to civic enterprises and in terior decoration.
