All newspaper workers, regardless of member ship in the state press associa tion or other affiliation, are in vited to attend. The program, planned by a joint committee from the Press association and the University, is regarded as exceptionally strong and one that should ap peal alike to the daily and week ly newspaper folk. A well-balanced assortment of topics ranging all the way from editorial and news fea tures, advertising, circulation, accounting and business man agement, are scheduled for dis cussion.

While here Mr. Bell inter viewed seniors from the chemi cal, civil, electrical and mechan ical engineering departments. In December seniors in chemi cal engineering were also inter viewed by E. C. Ainslie. The Southern Cotton Oil Com pany, which produces cotton seed oil for the manufacture of soap and Crisco, is a branch or ganization of Proctor and Gam ble Company of Cincinnati. There are at present in the em- Ploy of Proctor and Gamble Company three Carolina gradu ates. These men are: George Owens, '25, traveling experi mental research worker; J. Gor don Simmons, '25, supervisor of sap manufacture; and R. E. Matthews, '29, engineering ex perimental research worker. Education School Changes Rules For Student Teachers According to a regulation re cently adopted by the adminis tration board of the school of education, admission to the course in practice teaching will hereafter be restricted to honor students only. An average grade of B in the teaching field, or the applicant's academic ma jor, is the standard which stu dent teachers must now attain. Dr. E. R. Mosher, director of the teacher-training work, states that there are several reasons for the passage of this regula tion. He says that in any school where practice teaching is per mitted, the interests of the pu pils taught should always be re garded as paramount. No' teach er can teach effectively what he himself does not know. Hence, in justice to the boys and girls of the local high school, students of indifferent scholarship should be debarred from these courses. Other reasons for this action include a desire on the part of tne scnooi oi education to raise the standard set for prospective teaching above the level now prevailing; limited practice teaching facilities; and regula tions of the State Department of Public Instruction regarding teachers' certificates, Dr. Mosher states. According to these reg ulations, which are to go into ef fect on July 1, 1931, teaching is to be made a requirement for the highest grade certificate issued on graduation from any senior college undertaking teacher' training work in North Caro lina. Dashiell's Book Is Widely Used Dr. J. F. Dashiell's book en titled Fundamentals of Objec tive Psychology, which is being used here in psychology I and II, is receiving wide adoption throughout the country. Al though it anneared late for d ti . the fall of 1928, already there are over 75 uni versities and colleges that are using it. They include Harvard, Columbia, Dartmouth, Amherst, Pittsburgh, Ohio State, Indiana, Northwestern, Wisconsin, New York University, George Wash ington, University of Wyoming, University of California, and such southern schools as Van- derbtft, Alabama, Florida, South Carolina, Davidson and the Uni versity of Tennessee. Aquestionaire sent out by the University of Kentucky to 49 leading psychologists to deter mine their preference as to text books showed that for freshmen and sophomores they placed Wood worth's first and Dashiell's secondhand for juniors and sen iors they placed Dashiell's first and Woodworth's second. All other books were far in the rear in both cases. Hibbard Attending Association Meet Dean Hibbard left last night to attend the sixteenth annual mwtirttr of the Association of American Colleges, in Washing ton. The association is made up of deans of liberal arts colleges and universities and presidents of universities and colleges. Dean Hibbard will be gone until Friday.'"5"" .' , ; CHAPEL HH.L, N.

LOCAL RED CROSS TO EXPAND SOON Classes In Life Saving, Rural Nursing, And Police Instruc tion Contemplated. Classes in first aid and life saving, so popular at North Carolina last year, will be re sumed in the near future, ac cording to Miss Elise Mulliken, state field representative for the American Red Cross, who has been at the Carolina Inn the past few days. Policemen, traffic men, and other guardians of the public safety in North Carolina have reported the great good which they derived -' from the two weeks' instruction given here last year, according to Miss Mul liken. No less than 46 Carolina students have become expert in life saving methods. The work here will be under the direction of Morgan F. Vin- ing, instruction probably being inthe hand of Raymond Eaton, who is paid by the American Red Cross to teach life saving methods. None of the expense will be borne by the University. As a result of a successful membership roll call conducted by the American Red Cross in Chapel Hill recently, Miss Mul liken promises to have even tually a Red Cross nurse to as sist poor families in the district. In this work the Red Cross will be aided by the American asso ciation for the prevention of tuberculosis and other interest ed agencies. The work of a Red Cross county nurse is interesting. Families too . ignorant or too poor to care for themselves properly are aided and advised by. the nurse. Clinic are fre quently, where as many as fifty operations are performed in a single day, at no cost to persons unable to pay. What's Happening ' TODAY . 5 :00 p. m.

NUMBER 79 Committee Appointed To Report On Activities Of Stores For Fall Quarter. DORMITORY PRESIDENTS AND MANAGERS TO MEET Editorial In Daily Tar Heel Caused Meeting In President's Office Monday Morning; Punch Boards Removed. (By J. D. McNairy) Yesterday morning President Chase held a conference in hi3 office with C. T. Woollen, busi ness manager of the University; R. B. House, executive secre tary; F. F. Bradshaw, dean of students; P. L. Burch, superin tendent of buildings, Jimmie Williams, assistant to the dean, and H. D. Williams of the build ing department, at which the question of dormitory stores, brought to the front by an edi torial in Saturday's Tar HeeL attacking the stores, was dis- 3 '. -: A ; cussseu. a representative iroiu the Tar Heel editorial staff was also present. In order that certain miscon ceptions regarding the stores may be cleared up, Mr. Burch and Jimmie Williams were directed to draw up a report of the activities of the stores for the fall quarter and to send the report to the Tar Heel and the local newspapers. In order that uie limit oi me sxores activity may' be more clearly defined, it was decided to call a meeting of the store managers and dormi tory presidents and draw up some regulations as to what types of goods may be sold in the stores. There was general agreement among the group that the con ditions stated in the Tar Heel's editorial were true before Christmas, but it was pointed out that conditions have been very greatly improved. . All punch boards and games of chance have been removed from the stores ; if any are now op erated, then the store managers are running them at the risk of losing their -j obs. Certain chang-. es have been'made in the person nel of the store , managers ; six were not reappointed for the winter quarter due to unsatis factory service during the fall. The sanitary inspector has been directed to be more rigorous m his inspections of the stores. Due to the fact that much speculation exists as to the ex act amount of business done by the stores during the fall a to be published. Contrary to the belief of many merchants that during the fall quarter $19,000 was turned over by the stores, the actual figures showed a business of little over $6,000. Of this one third was the com mission on cleaning, pressing, and shoe renairine whir.h would ordinarily have been paid out by Chapel Hill firms ; thus only $4,5UU worth oi goods were sold. Of this, 90 per cent was pur chased from Chapel Hill mer chants by the store managers. The managers buy out of Chapel Hill only when they can get goods at a greatly reduced price. As the stores are m an ex perimental stage, plans for the continued operation are to be ence directs.
