ApnalachJrn c*"t« Teachers College. Boone, N. C.) Teaching sleepy children who spend too much time viewing TV ranks high among teacher prob lems. A list of 142 problems hamper, ing school people in educating youth has been prepared by Dr. Lee F. Reynolds at Appalachian State Teachers College, Boone, N. C., following a survey of 200 Tar Heel teachers representing twenty-five public schools. Pinpointing the problems is as important to parents as school of ficials, states education professor Reynolds. What troubles a teach er usually affects students and their learning. And as a rule a joint effort by both paints and teachers is re quired to bring about corrections, opines the 31-year veteran of public school and college instruc tion. As might be exoe.cte(t. leads the 142-problem list. Low salaries force teachers’ wives to work, discourage having children, leave little for clothes and recre ation and cause worry about Compromise Reached In Fishing Dispute Continued from Page 1, Section 1 Weldon who has <Jone considera ble work in connection with tie propogation of rockfish, and State Senator Lunsford Crew of; Halifax. Mr. Morris called the meeting to order and stated the purpose. He then called upon Mr. Rogers to read a report of recommenda tions as outlined at a meeting held March 20 at Morehead City! in an attempt to work out a compromise with respect to reg ulations governing the taking of commercial fish in the Chowan River and the area west of the Norfolk Southern Railroad bridge in Albemarle Sound. Mr. Rogers’ report recommend ed the repeal of Regulations 4. i 12, 13, 28 and 62 and that in place' of these regulations for which repeal is recommended, one reg ulation be submitted for consid eration. This general regulation i follows: h (1) It shall be unlawful during the closed season on shad and j herring, April 26 to June 1, to set gill nets, pound nets or pull seines to take shad and rock and other commercial fish be tween the highway bridge across Albemarle Sound at Pea Ridge and the Norfolk Southern Railroad bridge five miles west. It shall be unlawful at any sea son of the year to set nets of any description in Albemarle Sound and its tributaries with in 300 yards of either side of anv bridge, and the further lim itations shall apply as herein after described with respect to certain types of nets and bridges and the mouths of rivers. (2) The use of gill nets, pound nets and seines for the taking of all types of commercial fish I shall be unlawful in the area of, Albemarle Sound west of the j Norfolk Southern bridge and in tributaries of the Sound in that area during the closed season for shad and herring April 25 to | June 1. and in addition this ban on nets is extended until July 1.!

Too many things to do in a school day besides teach, such as supervising bus loadings and keeping records, is in second place. Indifferent parents who show little concern over their children’s ! scholastic progress rates high. Students’ poor spoken English poses formidable problems. Dealing with the poorly dis cipled gives many headaches. Promoting or retaining “bor derline” students is troublesome. Other knotty problems include: Youngsters lack respect for oth ers. Working with those of low general intelligence. Too many classroom interrup tions and exaggerated interest in I extra-curricular activities as sports and band. Little relief from the children, j especially for elementary teach- I ers who remain continuously with 25 to 40 little ones fgpm be ginning of school to its end. On the list, but not marked once as a problem is “teachers cannot choose where they live.” “That’s understandable,” says Professor Reynolds, “Jobs are so| plent : ful that a good teacher can practically pick any place in the United States he wishes to live.” nets in the Chowan River shall :be regulated as follows: It shall i be unlawful to set gill nets or pound nets in any tributaries or within 300 yards of the mouths of any tributary. The channel (one-third) of the river must be, kept free of any type of nets, j No pound nets shall be set with- 1 in 100 yards of any other pound net set by another person nor! shall gill nets be set within 400 yards of any pound nets set j All gill nets must be properly marked. (4) Except during the closed j season for spawning, April 25 toi June 1, and during the month, of June in the area west of the; Norfolk Southern bridge and in ■ the Chowan River, and in other tributary rivers of that portion of Albemarle Sound, the use of gill nets for the taking of com mercial fish will be 'lawful, I with the following limitations: (a) The gill nets must have a| stretched mesh of not less than; I 3 ' inches when fished from j July 1 to January 1, and from! January 1 to April 25 a stretch-j ed mesh of not less than 3*si inches when fished. (b) No gill nets shall be per mitted within one-half mile of the mouths of either side of any of the tributaries of Albemarle Sound, and as under present law in the middle third of Albemarle Sound and the middle third of all tributaries. All gill nets must be marked by visible float ing corks or bouys at each end. The mouth of the Chowan River shall be deemed to be at the Highway 17 bridge at Edenton commonly known as the Eden house bridge. ! These regulations shall be in effect for two years and in the meantime the Board of Conser-! vation and Development shall cause a scientific research to be made to see the effect of these regulations ond to make recom mendations. Both commercial and spcts l fishermen advanced arguments in sbpport of their particular phase of fishing, both expressing concern for the protection and propogation of fish.

This charge, l however, was denied by the com-' mercial group, who advanced the' argument that commercial fish ermen make a substantial contri bution to fish conservation by catching many predatory species. They also stated that earlier closed seasons would take away! the period when what is earned can generally be considered pro- 1 fit in that previous catches just | about cover expenses. Senator Crew said he was of j the opinion that the problem had | been settled. He emphasized the ; fact that it is necessary to have | laws to conserve resources of the state and urged the Commercial Fisheries Committee to think of the future in arriving at a final ] decision. Tom Holley of Colerain and Frank Kugler of Washington, I presented petitions signed bv the! County Commissioners of Bertie and Chowan Counties asking that there be a closed season for j all nets in the Chowan River | from May 10 to January 1, each, year. The Commercial Fisheries' Commission will consider the ar-! guments presented and make a 1 final decision. Mr. Morris stat-! ed that the meeting at Morehead j City and the Edenton meeting were big steps toward bringing | 'peace between sport and com- j mercial fishermen using the Cho-! wan River and Albemarle Sound. • Town Election i Called For May sth Continued from Page ?—Section 1 Ruth Stokley; judges of election, H.
