Public Administration School Will
Train Students For Office-Holding
-O :
Dr. Walter C. Jackson, Former Head of North Carolina College
For Women Appointed by Board of Trustees to Head
New Department Installed in University.
The school of public admin
istration, newest of the Univer
sity schools, is founded on the
conviction that governmental of
ficials require a definite scholas
tic preparation for their respon
sibilities. As an instrument of
the state university, it aims to
serve the state by training fu
ture office-holders of North Car
olina and the nation.
When the board of trustees
decided last June to create this
graduate school at. the Univer
sity, it appointed Dr. Walter
Clinton Jackson, vice-president
of North Carolina College for
Women, as dean of the then
theoretical school of public ad
ministration. Dr. Jackson im
mediately made a survey of the
courses offered by the Univer
sity and formulated a plan of
study for his school.
Course of Study
But one new course has been
organized for the school, that in
Public administration, which is
offered by Dr. Jackson in the
winter quarter. The balance of
the courses are to be had else
where in the University. De
partments which are now con
tributing subjects to the new
school include psychology, com

The delegation will be headed
by Ed Lanier, self-help secre
tary, Harry F. Comer, general
secretary of the "Y," and Bill
McKee, president of the "Y."
The majority of the delega
tion comes from the Freshman
Friendship Council with eight
delegates and two advisors.
Many interesting speakers
have been engaged for the two
day session by Lex Kluttz, gen
eral secretary of the Raleigh
"Y,"-and Herbert Upchurch of
Raleigh president of the con
gress. Among them will be Sena
tor Josiah William Bailey, Gov
ernor O. Max Gardner, and Dr.

merce and economics, sociology,
rural-social economics, engineer
ing, government, and law. These
courses are, in the main, deliv
ered by professors already asso
ciated with the University.
Thus, the school, consists in
reality of a careful selection and
coordination of many types of
study, all of which are necessary
to the instruction of public ad
ministration. As the school de
velops in importance and size,
it is expected that other courses
will be added to the curriculum.
School's Purpose
Dean Jackson justified the
school's existence by stating
"The reason that so many gov
ernmental officials fail in their
tasks lies not in the fundamental
dishonesty of all politicians, but
rather in the fact that most men
are elected to administrate an
office the duties of which they
are quite ignorant." Therein is
the purpose of the new school:
to train competent, intelligent
men to perform public duties ef
ficiently. The establishment of this
school places the University in
company with eight other uni
versities who maintain such an

the American Social Science
Series of which Dr. Howard W.
Odum, also of the University, is
the editor. '
For College Students
The new volume is intended
primarily for college men and
women, and it attempts to an
swer the many pertinent ques
tions that are-so often asked by
young people, those questions
about marriage and family life.
The book is in a large measure
an outgrowth of conferences and
researches in. connection with
the course on marriage and the
family given especially for sen
iors here in the University, and
is also an outgrowth of Profes
sor Groves' researches in the in
stitute for research in social
science.
The opening chapter of the
new publication deals with the
social changes influencing mar
riage and the family, and gives
some very interesting1 informa-
jtion in regard to the change of
motives, amount of family life,
family relationships, and social
attitudes. The correlation of
science and marriage is dis
cussed in the following chapter

BAGBY ADDRESSES
FRESHMEN UPON
JIABITS OF STUDY
Dr. English Bagby Says Students
Must Decide Question of
Outside Activities.
Dr. English Bagby of the psy
chology department, addressing
freshman assembly yesterday on
"The Methods of Study," de
clared that the majority of fail
ures were due to lack of study
and tnat the probable reason for
not studying was the lack of in
terest in the work. The stu
dent, he said, is not in a position
to judge what is doing him good
and what is not and for this rea
son should do his best in what
he is taking.
The student can always find a
place i of quiet to study at the
library if his room-mate is a
saxophone player, he said, and
should never use this as an ex
cuse for not studying.
Dr. Bagby stressed the distri
bution of time in studying. He
said that only one-fourth of the
time should be spent in reading
the assignment and three
fourths of the time should be
spent in recitation. The time
just before class should be spent
in studying. He said that fiye
minutes studying at this time
was worth ten at another time
because the thing learned is
fresh in the mind.
Math Hardest
The mathematics course,
which most freshmen consider
the hardest, should be studied
excessively at first to get a good
foundation. The foundation in
math tends to make it easier ,

KOCH AND BOGGS
TO ATTEND FAIR
University Professors Invited by
Cherokee Indians to Attend
Annual Tribe Fair.
Professor F. H. Koch, director
of the Playmakers, and Ralph
S. Boggs, professor of folklore in
the department of romance lan
guages, left yesterday afternoon
to attend the Cherokee Indian
Fair which is being conducted
October 4, 5, 6, and 7 at the
Cherokee Reservation on the
edge of the Great Smoky moun
tains. At this fair there will be dis
played samples of their arts and
handicrafts, and besides these
and other exhibitions the Chero
kees will play their own native
Indian ball game from which the
American sport of lacrosse
evolved.
Koch Presented Mask
On his visit to this annual
harvest festival of the Chero
kees, Koch will extend a formal
invitation to the Cherokees to
bring to Chapel Hill their color
ful Green Corn dance. He has
visited this reservation before
and on his last trip was present
ed with an ancient wooden mask
carved from the trunk of a pop
lar tree and used for many years
in their dramatic dance cere
monials. He has added the
Cherokee mask to the dramatic
museum in his office.
In 1927 when a group of. Hopi
Indians came to Chapel Hill on
an educational mission to demon
strate their celebrated Snake
Dance, Professor Koch was hon
ored by being adopted by them
into the Hopi tribe. Since that
time Mr. Koch has visited the
Hopi reservation in New Mexico
several times on his way to Cali

Teachers Urged To Abstain From
Drinking, Smoking, Or Card-Playing
r
O
Article Appearing in October Issue of the "High School Journal"
By George Howard and J. S. Fleming Says School
Superintendents Desire Model Teachers.
o
Teachers going into certain
districts of the state will be wise
to abstain from drinking, smok
ing, dancing and card-playing if
they wish to hold their position.
This information is the result of
inquiry blanks sent to 195 sup
erintendents of county and spe
cial charter school systems by
George Howard, professor in the
University education school and
J. S. Fleming, superintendent of
Warsaw schools. Their findings
have been compiled and pub
lished as an article, "Adminis
trative Practices Applying to the
Selection of Teachers in- North
Carolina Public5 Schools,"' ap
pearing in the October issue of
The High School Journal.
The facts secured pertained to
educational requirements, ex
perience requirements, employ
ment of married as teachers,
home talent, age of teachers,
church membership, the advisa
bility of employing teachers who
dance, smoke or play cards, and
the form of application.
Varied Regulations
The article reyeals a wide di
vergence of opinion on these
points. However,, the majority
of the answers showed that a
liberal attitude was directed to
WILLIAMS PAINTS
DARK PICTURE IN
KIWANBADDRESS
Dr. Horace Williams Makes
Strong Plea for Sanen Inter
national Relations.
Pleaing for international vis
ion and good-will, Dr. Horace
Williams, professor of philoso
phy of the University, yesterday
addressedthe Durham Kiwanis
club at their morning luncheon.
"There is no place in modern
life and civilization for war
reparations and the sooner the
United States comes to the con
clusion that international debts
must be forgotten the quicker
the nation will recover from
present distressing conditions,"
he -said. He told of conditions
existing in various countries of
the world because of the World
War and of staggering debts
under which they are laboring.
He offered the soft-pedaling of
reparation efforts as . the pana
cea for the condition.
The place the United States
has held since the war was dis
cussed by Dr. Williams, in com
paring the changeof the na
tion's status before that great
conflict. Whereas prior to the
war this country was paying
34,000,000 pounds to England
annually in the curtailment of
her debts. Great Britain has
since the war paid 200,000,000
pounds annually in interest to
this country.
The picture presented of Eng
land was one of bankruptcy. Her
people are taxed anywhere from
twenty-five to ninety per cent on
their property. The fact that
such a great country should go
off of the gold standard was of
fered by Dr. Williams as evi
dence of the seriousness of the
situation.
The condition of America was
stated as that of business chan
nels clogged up with no hope of
circulation until the trouble is
removed. Every nation, he said,

ward the teachers. Most of the
systems will employ married
women as new teachers. Local
residents are preferred in a large
number of county systems, but
are not so favored in the special
charter division.
Only a small percentage of
schools have any maximum age
requirement1 for new teachers.
Church membership of instruc
tors is not considered in many
systems, while a slight number
forbid dancing. Few maintain
rules prohibiting smoking or
card-playing.
Replies to the questionnaire
furnish ample evidence of the
varying limitations placed upon
members of the public school fa
culties. The subject of marriage
brought from one superintend
ent the statement, "Qualifica
tions being equal, probably it
would be expedient to select as
new teachers those who are un
married." In the teacher's con
tract of one of the leading cities
of the state is written: "Your
marriage will automatically can
cel the provisions of this, con
tract." Superintendents' Views
