Prior to Dr. Syron's address, Mrs. Theodore Rice read the secretary's report, Mrs. John Costlow reported on the recent symphony society meeting at which she and other AAUW members represented the branch, and Mrs. Thomas Scott reported on a proposed elementary curricula stucfy. Dr. Syron was introduced by the branch president, Mrs. Ray Brown. The speaker mentioned that AAUW was founded iu 1882 to unite alumni of different institutions for practi cal educational work. "Since it has become respecta ble, once again, to be intellectual," Dr. Syron said, "and the public has becomc vitally interested in edu cation, AAUW has the opportunity to help channel that interest." AAUW should exist, she contin ued. not only as an influential force in the community, but to further the intellectual development of the individual. The branch should present pro grams of college calibre, the speak er said. She mentioned ways in which the local branch can further the division objectives, and com mented on the value of the Inter national Federation of University Women, of which AAUW is a part.

Dr. Ala* Hurlburt, professor at education, Duke IWvenity, was introduced by H. L. Joslyn as the speaker of the evening. Dr. Hurl burt prefaced his remarks with the acknowledgement that he was not a humorous speaker and that he was going to talk is a serious vein and attempt to interpret aome of the aspects of our public schools of today. Four categories in particular, said Dr. Hurlburt, would be dia cuaaed: the doctrine of fear, change is inevitable, some major criticiama of public education, and what can we do about them. When "Sputnik" came into our world picture, the public achoola became the target for a mass hys teria?a doctrine of fear was born. These were the same schools that had prepared a host of scientists, doctors, engineers and physicists, he said, and instead of educating the youth of our country, it would seem that we should have provided our people with better sets of nerves. In 1IM it took nine farm families to feed ten, and therefore one family could migrate to the city, said Dr. Hurlburt, whereas today one family feeds seventeen, and sixteen families can move to the city. Change is inevitable. Medical discoveries in the past few years have removed the yoke of death from many sick persons who previously would have been doomed: we have gone from the old crystal radio to color tv; we have given up the horse and buggy for the hot-rod, and from the days of the Wright brothers to space travel, commented Dr. Hurlburt. Student discipline is one of the major criticism! of those in the teaching field, Dr. Hurlburt said. Parents quite often want good dis cipline for other children, but some of these same parents will not ac cept responsibility for the discip line of their own children. The public frequently reminds the school authorities that the gif ted student is not getting a square deal, and yet the schools continue to turn out a flow of brilliant young men and women into our colleges. Dr. IIwHHirt said the schools need to do still more for the su perior student but he did not want this to came about at Ike expense of the slow learner. If we are interested and want to do something about our schools, said Dr. Hurlburt, we can ask ourselves the question: Are you evidencing confidence in your school system, or U your attitude one o I indifference?

We need to be more realistic about education, he said; we are spending more money for smokes, alcohol and cosmetics than for edu cation.
