was interviewed by the Reporter
regarding the plan which he is
advocating for a better system j
of schools;, and which the Repor
ter is informed has recently re
ceived very favorable comment by
faculty members of the State

provide a super-school in each.
cointy in order to give more
varied or elective courses
to young men and women who
do not intend entering college,
and also to more freely equip
those who do.
Mr. Phillips believes Stokes

'when it comes to advantages
young people deserve.
What applies to Stokes, Mr.,
Phillips says, is of course true of
other North Carolina counties, j
