SUPER-SCHOOL
PHILLIPS PLAN
STOKES COUNTY MAN'S
THEORY RECEIVES FAVOR
ABLE CONSIDERATION AT
STATE UNIVERSITY FOR
BrmK . til-
YOUNG WOMEN AND YOUNG
MEN.
/
R. Phillips of Dalton, one of i
the outstanding educationists of j
the county, was here today and |
was interviewed by the Reporter
regarding the plan which he is
advocating for a better system
of schools/, and which the Repor
ter is informed has recently re
ceived very favorable comment by l
faculty members of the State
University.
The theory for Improvement
according to Mr. Phillips, would
provide a super-school in each
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
county should rate equal to the
best in any section of the country
when it comes to advantages
young people deserve.
What applies to Stokes, Mr.,
Phillips says, is of course true of
other North Carolina counties. I
Danbury One of Four
County Seats Without
Electric Service
But It's On the Way
Raleigh, March 19^ —Only four
of North Carolina's 100 county
seats are without electric service,
and within the next few months
at least two of these will have
power.
Dudley Bagley, chairman of the
state rural electrification author
ity, said Currituck, Camden,
Swan Quarter in Hyde county,
and Danbury in Stokes do not
have current.
5 The Virginia Electric and Pow
er company shortly will serve
Currituck c(n a line being con
structed from Moyock to Coin-|
jock. Bagley said there was 'i
possibility Camden also might bo
served later.
The Duke Power company noti
fied Bagley a survey has just
been completed in Stokes county, 1
and a line will be built from Wal
nut Cove to Piedmont by Mead
ows amd Danbury.
