Knight Praises
Lofty Progress
In Education
Cites Neglect As
Cause For Modern
'Lost Generation'
Special to Ths D itt.y Tar Kebx.
RALEIGH, Oct. 20 Education
in the United States during the
last half century "has reached
its most lofty quantitative tri
umphs and its' expansion into the
largest cooperative social effort
in all human history has been al
most bewildering."
This opinion was advanced by
Dr. Edgar W. Knight, Kenan pro
fessor of education in the Uni
versity of North Carolina at the
annual meeting of the Wake
County Phi Beta Kappa Associa
tion here tonight.
"But the swift quantitative
growth of education in this coun
try has been accompanied in
creasingly by some strange edu
cational paradoxes or contradic
tions," he declared.
One of these contradictions, he
said, is the "lack of proper edu
cation of teachers and another is
the lack of proper attention by
schools and colleges to gifted and
talented students.
"How best to prepare teachers
and managers of the schools has
become a very acute issue on
which there seems to be no com
mon agreement among the profes
sional educationalists," Dr. Knight
said. "Competent studies have re
vealed and continue to show that
those who enter in preparation
for teaching and managing schools
are not the ablest and most prom-
ismg young people
So long
is inferior stutents are taught by
inferior teachers the promise of
improving public education can
net be very bright."
Dr. Knight said the "neglect
of the able and talented pupils
and students is making them the
lost and forgotten educational
generation. The obvious need for
improving the educational oppor
tunity of gifted young people is
thporeticallv recognized but the
extent to which the need is be-j
ing met is not very encouraging.
Courses in so-called special edu
cation in teacher-education insti
tutions are generally intended to
prepare teachers of the physically
and mentally deficient.

For Your Listening Pleasure
First Television, Now It's Radio
For Ingenious Residents Of Cobb
By Tom Parramoxe
Cobb dormitory, already
noted for its trail-blazing TV
set, has made a serious bid for
recognition in the radio field.
Three freshmen in Room 333
boast the only private student
radio station on this and pos
sibly any other college campus.
They are Allen Sovitz, Ronnie
Sommers and Gene McBrayer.
Allen, angel and technician
of the whole business, says that
the commotion first began when
he and his roommates unwit
tingly began playing some re
cords into their radio loud
speaker. They were soon in
formed that neighbors also were
tuning in records and several
boys came by with requests.
To their surprise, the boys
found that they had been block
out five stations. Some fast
tuning followed until a clear
spot was found on the dial.

Students
To Invest

Special to The Daily Tab Heu.
DURHAM, Oct. 20 Students in
investment courses at the Univer
sity of North Carolina and Duke
University have just been given
$20,000 for investment trusts.
The unique gifts, $10,000. to each
university, will afford students
first-hand investment experience,
launching a teaching technique of
' great practical value.
Duke University President Hol-
lis Edens and .UNC , Chancellor
Robert B. House made the joint
anouncement here yesterday that
Charles H. Babcock of Reynolds
and Company, Winston-Salem,
has established two "student in
vestment trusts" at the universi
ties. Under the terms of the grants,
Duke and Carolina students in in
vestments and finance courses
will have sole control of invest
ing the money. They will analyze
securities and plan the invest
ment program in common with
millions of other Americans.
Through first-hand experience,
they will seek to build a group of
investments bringing the highest
yields with the maximum possi
ble safety. In addition, the pro
gram will be expanded to give
students practical experience in
corporate management and pro
cedure, in accounting and in in
vestigating the financial struc
ture, earning record, dividend
record, management and other
facts about American corpora
tions.
Plans also call for coonerative
and competitive relations between
ths two student groups. They will
meet during the school year to
exchange experiences and will
evaluate their comparative re
sults at the end of each year.
Annual income from the in
vestments will in each case be di
vided. Half will go to the Com
munity Chest Funds in Durham
and Chapel Hill, the other half
will be added to the original $10,
000 funds. Trust officers for both
funds will be the Fidelity Bank
of Durham

Deferred Rushing
Di Topic Tonight
"Deferred Fraternity Rushing"

Senate tonight at 8 o'clock.
The bill calls for the postpone
ment of rushing until the sopho

bill rushing will be held a week

through which they could play
their records. Then, in Allen's
own words, "We brought a tape
recorder into the room and
several of us did a fake news
cast similar to that of Orson
Wells mars invasion of several
years past.
"We predicted the closing of
the University for the rest of
the quarter due to the recent
polio epidemic. A sociology
professor was in the room at
the time. Thinking it was a real
broadcast he spread it through
the dormitory and before long
a real panic had spread.
- Then we got the idea that if
we were so good (pardon our
modesty) we would like to
broadcast to the residents in the
dormitory. After that we got
a phono-oscillator and 'souped
it up' so that it would cover
the dormitory. Our favorite pro
grams are music and calling
people to the telephone."

Cold Wave
Due To Stay
Another Day
Man it was cold last night!
And tonight will be just about
as snappy, according to R. M.
Evans of the U. S. Weather Bur
eau at the Raleigh-Durham Air
port. He predicted today's high
to be about 50 degrees, dropping
to the 30s again tonight in the
season's second cold snap.
The current frigidity is identi
fied hv vans
as "a normal
cold wave
from Canada,
accompanied
by fair skies
and gusty
winds." H e
said the wea
ther should
begin warm-
-7. ,VrVi
' ing up by
Thursday.
The North Carolina area saw
some frost in the low places last
night. There is cold air over the
whole eastern two-thirds of the
country. Some snow is falling
along the New England and
Great Lakes areas.
New York City was hit yester
day by what some observers de
scribed as a "snow storm".
Local service stations were
flooded late yesterday by stu
dents and townspeople filling
their auto radiators with anti
freeze in anticipation of the sub
freezing weather.
A little later the boys hit on
the idea of tape-recording 'Our
Best to You' an re-playing the
requests of .other Cobb resi
dents. One day five janitors who
had been dropping by to hear
the broadcasts, were invited to
put oh a skit. They responded
with a program of jazz and
spirituals which was an im
mediate hit.
At present, no broadcasts are
originating from 333 due to
technical problems. To quote
Allen again "We are tempora
rily off the air due to a burned
out 25 cent resistor. As soon as
we can get up a collection to
replace needed equipment ($2
worth) we will resume broad
casting transmission.'
Allen says that no FCC re
gulations are being broken be
cause the range of their station
is localized to the Cobb area
only.
Party

officials ask all interested stu

"Our party is in power for the

we believe it's definitely the
young man's party. We would like
to expand in order to have rep
resentatives for every group of
25 or more students on campus,"
said Chairman Sol Cherry.
Later meetings will include
nomination of class officers, Stu
dent Council members, Honor
Council members, and editor of
The Daily Tar Heel.
