Tht program of this "in-ser vice teacher training" is to pro- vide for the continuance of the professional growth of teachers, according to Grumman. Co-oDeration In the 42 classes for teachers this year a special effort is being struck at what is described as made to co-operate with the a wide-spread ring of counter state department of education feiters engaging , in activities and with the county units in the study and improvement of the public school curriculum. Ex- tension classes fit in especially well with the study program fceirig carried on by the depart- ment of education and by the schools. The bulk of the extension . . , teaching is being done by the live lull-time extension mstruc- tors in 14 towns selected as cen- ters of instruction. Nine Uni- versity professors teach classes in eight centers, and one class is taught by Professor John S. Bradway of Duke University. A total of fifteen instructors teach 45 classes in 23 centers.

The tale of Carolina's 7-0 vic tory over Duke's Blue Devils is set forth in this week's football edition of the Alumni Review. "Carolina Performs Brilliant ly to Crush Duke" reads the headline, and a front page pic ture shows Buck receiving the touchdown pass from Don Jack son, who does not appear in the photograph. In the regular column "Quar terbacking Alumni" appears the statement: "Duke supporters made- no alibis." In several other places throughout the sup plement the decisiveness of the hard-fought victory is empha sized. Besides the touchdown picture a good action photo of a Jack- son-around-end play illustrates the efficiency of the Carolina blocking against the Devils. So much space is given to dis cussing the varsity game that the freshman win over Virginia is almost crowded out. The football supplement to the review is issued regularly every week following Carolina foot ball matches and is edited by J. Maryon Saunders, alumni sec retary.

T. A. organiza- ion will co-operate with other state clubs in attempting to in fluence the incoming legislature to impove the school conditions over the state. Grave Danger "Unless the thinking people of North Carolina who are seri ously interested in the future welfare of their children get busy, right now, there is grave danger that the great invest ment already made m our schools will be allowed to disin tegrate," Warren declared. He estimated that already this year more than 1,000 teachers have left the profession because of poor pay. A survey is being made to determine the exact number. "The legislature is going to give the schools and the institu tions just what the people de mand and no more," he said It is up to the people back home to get busy and see that their representatives are cor rectly informed about the situ ation.
