Problems Of School English Under the direction of Aliss Cathleen Pike, chairman, the articulation com mittee of the English council of N. C. E. A. met in the students’ build ing at AA’'oraan’s college in June for the imrpose of considering problems of high school and college English. Dr. E. H. Elartsell gave a report on extensive reading in the high schools, which revealed the facts that most high schools require some type of paral lel reading program, with little or no uniformity as to reading lists or forms of testing. Ledbetter Advocates Program Miss Francess Ledbetter advocated a program of both extensive and in tensive reading with proper guidance to the students reading interests and ability. The evening session of the group w'avS called together for the purpose of learn ing something of the work and philoso phy of the Language Arts workshop .from Aliss Alarguerite Herr of Dur ham, and to plan for further meetin.gs and activities. The question of an in- tergration followed Aliss Herr’s report. There was a general feeling of dis approval expressed concerning the ten dency to abolish English as a separate subject. Dr, Coffman Tells of Ob.jectives Dr. Coffman gave the idea of teach ing English as English, one of the main points in his discussion of ob jectives. He also expressed the opinion that the English teachers of the state need more time in which to work to gether on common problems. At the end of the concluding session of the group, Dr. AVinfleltl Rogers of the AA^’ornan’s college faculty conducted an open discussion, from which emerg ed opinions on such topics as minimum essentials, or minimum responsibility of teachers and pupils, the importance of good teaching and thus of good tniining for teachers; the question of uniform testing; the problem involved in individuiii differences and the perenniMl problem of the unprepared.” Council Cannot Agree On Meeting Period q'lie Student council 1ms attempted t( secure the tirst iieriod of the day foi council meetings: however, owing t( differences in schedules this plan waf dropped ns impractical.
