' DR. ALEXANDER DIRECTOR The Teachers’ College of Columbia university has announced a new course in teacher's training to open Septem ber. 1932. This new course will attempt by rigid methods of elimination to start a new quality of teachers. Selection will be based upon good heaUh, sound scholarship, desirable personal quali ties, and promise of unusual growth. The course will be under the direc tion of Dr. Thomas Alexander, profes sor of education at Teachers' collie. The student body in the first year will be limited to 100 young men and 100 young women of outstanding ability and personality. While preparing these young people for teaching positions, the new unit, which will grant the Bachelor of Science and the Master's degrees, operate also as a demonstration col lege in which graduate students Teachers college ui^iy observe improved methods in teachers' training. The length of study in the college will vary from three to five years ac cording to the ability of the student, and will include at least one year spent in study and travel abroad. Students will be required to spend some time in actual work in industry and business so that when they become teachers they will have an adequate conception of the work of the world into which most pupils who graduate from American schools must enter. Actual practice in teaching will be provided by co-operating private and public school system. Cost of attendance at the college will not exceed .fl,000 a year.

COLTRANE WRITES FOR‘SCHOOL AND PRESS’ “How to Read a Newspaper” Is Title of Article Published at W. and L. Unlv. School of Journalism. DAILIES SHOW TREND OF AFFAIRS “How to Read a Newspaper” is tbe- title of an article written by Mrs. Alma G. Coltrane, faculty adviser for High Life. This article appeared in School and Press, a magazine published by the r..ee School of Journalism at Washing ton and Lee university, Lexington, Va. Mrs. Coltrane says that unless a person is an intelligent reader of the columns of news day by day and unless one keeps informed concerning his city, county, state, and nation, he should not exercise the right of citizenship by voting. To really read a newspaper intelli gently, continues Mrs. Coltrane, one must know and appreuiAto- the energy and effort it requires to publish a news paper. Since the citizens depend largely on the papere for their information con cerning political problems, students should be taught how to be intelligent “consumers of the news,” says Mrs Coltbane. She also declares that the Intelligent reading of the daily new: papers makes one alert In grasping the trend of every day affairs, accurate in expressing those Ideas and careful 111 evaluating them. Mrs. Coltrane states that civics and economics can best be taught through the columns of the newspapers. She says that the intelligent reading of the newspapers teaches the sensitiveness of industry, for industry Is very much like the human Iwdy—when something af fects one part, the other parts are nsnally affected also, ENGLISH CLASS GIVES SCENE FROM HAMLET Miss Laura Tillett’s sixth period English VIII class gave scene two, act five of Hamlet Thursday on the stage in the Glee Club room.

GREENSBORO HIGH WILL HAVE SOUND FILMS THIS YEAR Obstacles Are Encountered in Obtaining Satisfactory Educational Pictures. RICHARDSON IS OPERATOR Chief Use of Slides Will Be For Screen Songs to Improve Group Singing. There has been some speculation at G. H. S. this semester about the opera tion of a moving picture projector. Ac cording to C. W. Phillips, pictures are to be procured which will be of interest to all high school students. Those pic tures are rather hard to get as the schools wish to obtain pictures with no rental fee. The express charges (both ways) have to be paid. At the present time a slide attach ment is being put on the projector by L. B. Richardson. With this attach ment slides which are easily made and are very cheap will be shown. H. Grady Miller says that the students do not sing very well while looking at books, therefore the chief use of the slides will b for the showing of screen songs. Mr. Phillips says that this will greatly improve the group singing at G. H. S. Last year Holland Sound and Vision Company of this city installed a double turnable photophone system, which makes possible continuous music dur ing programs. At the present time there is a move to install sound pictures for the benefit of the high school stu dents. The first program, which will either be screen songs or a picture, or a combination of the two, is planned for October 28. This year Clyde Wooten and Ran dolph Covington are in charge of the moving picture performances. When asked about feature pictures, Mr. Phillips said: “Because of the time of showing and expense involved, no long feature pic tures will be shown.” PARENTS BECOME GROWN-UP PUPILS Teachers Meet Parents i Glasses Daily Attended by Sons and Daughters.
