Good Morning By Orville Campbell said. and hasta luego.' News: FRED CAZEL For This Issue: Sports: HARRY HOLLINGSWORTH Bottom-to-Top Problem D. L. Ward, chairman of the committee on higher education, has introduced a bill in the House of Representatives that, if passed, may bea solution to improving the North Carolina edu cational setup. The Craven county legislator says that his objective is a, thorough, painstaking survey of the whole educational setup, ,with a view to determining, whether the state is getting all it pays for when it spends practically ?30,UOO,000 annually on its public school system and many more millions on its institutions of higher learning. The preamble to the bill recites very briefly, but clearly, what Ward's aims are. . The four short "whereases" are: (1) It is the opinion of a large group of citizens that there is a gap which makes the transition of boys and girls from high school to college difficult. Mr. Ward feels that the current educational setup begins at the wrong end with the public schools operated too much for the purpose of meeting requirements laid down by the higher institutions for admission. He believes that a diploma from any North Carolina high school should admit its holder to North Carolina's colleges without further question. As it is now, these diplomas do not admit unless the holder has taken the prescribed courses in "liberal arts" subjects. A boy who has taken voca tional training, for instance, instead of French, is often rejected. (2) There should be cldse articulation and cooperation be tween the public school system and the institutions of higher learning which are operated by funds appropriated by the gen eral assembly of North Carolina from the public treasury. Mr. Ward feels that the courses offered in the higher institu tions should be based on what the public school system qualifies its graduates to take. He contends that at present the higher institutions set the standards which public schools must attain in order to qualify graduates for collegiate courses. This, Mr. Ward contends, is the basis for the trouble between highi schools and colleges. . (3) The vocational needs of boys and girls in North Carolina high schools who are hot able to attend the institutions of higher learning are not being adequately met at the present time; and , (4) There is a shortage of facilities for training vocational teachers in our state institutions. - Vocational education has been held back more because of a shortage of trained teachers in North Carolina than because of any unwillingness on the part of the legislature to jvote. money for the activities, Mr. Ward says. He thinks that the system of higher education should place much more emphasis on training ' these teachers of vocational courses. The Ward bill would have the governor appoint a commission to make the necessary study of his proposal. The commission :would work without pay and be composed of two members from higher institutions, two from the public school system, the state superintendent of education, and six members at large, repre sentative of agricultural, business and professional life. The commission would be directed to complete and submit to the gov ernor its report not later than October 1, 1942. The bill has received favorable comment in educational circles, and "opinions expressed regard it as the necessary tool to deal with one of the most vital problems confronting the state's edu cational system. . As it has "been presented it is not just another commission setup, but one that will do some good. The bill should definitely wake up educational leaders to the needs of the state. O. C. Sound and Fury "Gotta heap of tarnips," said Con nie Smith. "Gotta heap of praise," said "the critics. "Tooka heap of VviH," aalvl tUe student body. Most of you saw "Stand ing Room On ly," and most of you agree that it was a swell show. The .Conga number was worth the . " ""in le sion. The Sound and Fury skit and other numbers in the show were just as good. That, however, was not the thing that amazed us. ' Frankly, we didn't attend' the show for it's acting merits. We at tended it because we knew that there were 150 fellow students in the cast who were acting for the love of it. They were getting as much enpoy ment out of acting as we were of watching. They were giving , up nights at Aggies and the movies to do the one thing they wanted to do. A laugh from the Carolina student body was to them what a 25 yard run is to Jim Lalanne on the football field. Carroll McGaughey spent an aver- age of 12 hours a day for the past three months. He ate and slept Sound and Fury. All members of the cast worked every night for six solid weeks. We attended the last two dress rehearsals. We . saw girls wrapped up in coats trying to . grab a mo ment's rest on the hard seats of Memorial hall. We saw skits go wrong, dances look bad, and cue,s missed, but each time they were done over to the satisfaction of Mc Gaughey and the actors themselves. We saw students on the campus trying to sleep standing up. We knew they were Sound and Fury members. ' ' . There is not much more that can be said about the show. Everyone Quotable Quotes (By Associated Collegiate Press) "We believe that even now, after all the scorn, after all the violence, after all the victories of the enemies of freedom, it (democracy) is still the greatest of human causes. We be-, lieve this because we believe that free dom is one human cause dedicated to humanity. It is the one human cause which declares that humanity is not a means to an end but is itself an end. It is the one human cause which declares, and which proposes to dem onstrate, that human beings, left to themselves, freed of the authority of masters, whether of the mind or of the soul or of the body, are capable of creating a good society and a humane life." Archibald MacLeish,- poet and librarian of congress, urges forceful reiteration of faith in American de mocracy. "War is an evil, yes, a horror. But there are greater evils. War in volves death but what a different' world we should have if men had not been willing to face physical de struction for a great and noble cause, for religion, for freedom of thought, for freedom of the body and the mind. Harmful as the effects of war have been on mankind, indefi nitely worse would it have been if mankind, to avoid it, had made a Munich of every crisis." Dr. Mon roe E. Deutsch, vice-president and provost of the University of Cali fornia, labels the totalitarian regime as worse than war. "There , are in the United States far more universities, colleges and other operating institutions, and far more voluntary organizations for worthy purposes than the na tion can possibly afford. In the years to come many of these are bound to disappear." Dr. Frederick P. Kep pel, president of the Carnegie Cor poration of New York, predicts a weeding out of universities and philanthropies.. who saw it liked it. Bill Snider wrote the review, and it was swell. We will always remember those who participated, and we think they de serve a world of credit. Our congrat ulations to Carroll McGaughey and company. Bill Stauber While loafing in the dorm store yesterday, I happened to see a freshman looking at the cover of this month's Tar 'n Feathers. "Who is Bill Stauber?" he asked stupidly. "Stauber," I replied impatiently, "is a Tradition." But I was worried. A few of us remember when Stauber was editor of the Buccaneer. Others remem ber the swell columns he did for the Daily Tar Heel. Stauber was a medium-sized, sad looking fellow who had a comeback for any and all remarks. When he first wandered into the Buccaneer office, he used to say, he was put to work emptying waste baskets; later on, he helped to fill them all over the campus. But really Stauber was tops. He could write a column with, one hand and roll a cigarette with the other. British Capture 8,000 Italians In Somaliland Campaign CAIRO, March 1.
