FRIDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1951 THE DAILY TAR HEEL dn Suggest Substitution y Eiectives its Language Reqyirefiiaiit s Dean Thomas H. Carroll of the School of Business Administra tion issued a statement yesterday clarifying his school's position in the specialization versus liberal arts debate now hitting the cam pus. - , : , . ; -The consensus of our faculty, . I believe, is that there is no single approach to learning in the field of humanities. We respect the values of foreign language both from the technical and cultural points of view. We do not, how ever, believe : that it is necessary to require foreign language ' for everyone, especially if by so do ing we make it practically im possible for the student to take manit5e- " Since arroll has come to the University, the commerce majors have been able to get through the School of Business Administra tion in four years instead of the four and a quarter years it used to take. But in the shortening of the course, the School has had to ask for more eiectives in human ities in place of the language re quirements. "In the absence of general humanities courses of an integrated, type such as has been attempted in Social Science 1-2, it is the belief of this faculty that at least a minimum of election rather than a strait -jacket re quirement in the humanities be provided," he asserted. "We believe, however, that study of the great thought of mankind is valuable and would like to have students free to elect courses in philosophy and or his tory of thought," Carroll said. YMCA Drive Sunday marks ihe start of the YMCA Faculty Member ship drive. To facilitate the rounding up of the faculty for branding with the""Y" stamp, Gil Marsh, chairman of the drive has organized ten -teams of six students each, these groups being headed by George HilL Burton Rights, Hugh Cole, Bill Hogshead, Jack Prince, Bob Johnson, Tom Sully, Bill Brown, and Gill Marsh. A meet ing of these teams is scheduled at 8:30 Sunday night in ihe YMCA. Two persons each will work on each prospective fac ulty member. More standard bearers axe needed, so report io ihe YMCA information if you care for the hunt. House Says Education Is Based On Religion ASHEVTLLE Asserting that "education is based jpr religion, UNC chancellor, Ro'House, this week advanced an eight point definition of learning. Speaking twice at the Western District of the North Carolina Education Association in Ashe ville, Chancellor House said that: Education "runs not just from the age of 6 to 2 1 but from the cradle to the grave. "It embraces not simply - the three R's, but the soil of the ground and the souls of the peo ple. "It is vocational. There are 20,000 known occupations of man, and each one cries to be a learned profession. It is -vocational There are millions of interesting things to do. But each one is a science and an art which will yield only to the person who loves it enough to study it and practice it. "It is just and will not yield to the loafer. It is generous, pro viding sport, music, and art as staples no less than the three R's. It is skillful, insisting on hard, strenuous, exact performance andkt followthrough. It is magnani mous, setting no arbitrary limits Chancellor R. B. House "When a teacher knows, or seeks io know, he is a scientist." on any perspn anywhere because it is spiritual in its view of man in himself, in society and under God." , He said that ihe best serious definition of education is Milton's: "I call, therefore, a complete and generous education that which fits a man to perform justly, skill fully, and magnanimously ail the offices, both private and public, of peace and war.". wimim"rT i iWiECftlVrrVin n nr- m i -i n i-f-- rji t ........ . . ttt gay Pare tfert hotter turn wr, H"fiS I 3 - fi lived marqtti hhkH omt ln bour, i Along cftine Mkpttit VHh her trim 9lhotti ' A4 he bcm more hoSder rtia okfcrf 5:':'-i?-:i4:::-'-:::v-:5: LOUIS DANIELE JOUVET DELORME C?

But have you ever lieard of a relay where the hurdles are mountains, the average stride is thirty miles, tfnd , the track stretches coast to coast? . It's the Bell System VMfe-fer and it brings East and West together in one of the most important events in the history of communications. - Telephone construction crews have just recently completed the coast-to-coast &Lcto -?ea system. Today, Long Distance calls ride on radio microwaves beamed through the air from, tower to tower. And, for the first time, television programs have been flashed from coast to coast. 1 The new system supplements the thou-, sands of miles of wire cable that already tie the- nation together. It helps make Americans vast communications network even stronger and more flexible. And it could hardly happen at a better time. The demands of defense are heavy and urgent. HOW gftwU-ZRefay WORKS. Microwaves travel in a straight line. So relay towers are usually built on hilltops and spaced about thirty miles apart. Just as a runner picks up the baton from another, runner, so each tower picks up microwaves -from its neighbor, and with complex electronic equipment amplifies and focuses them like a searchlight, then beams them accurately at the next tower. And hun dreds of Long Distance calls ride the beam at the same time. ;BELL TEL EP H O ME S YST E M
