Postgrad Dental Course Und erway At UNC Dentistry for Children, a five-day post-graduate course, will get under way at the University of North Caro lina School of Dentistry in Chapel Hill Monday, July 11, with Dr. Wil liam W. Demerrit as director. A second course in the same area has been set for July 18-22, as part of the UNC Dental School's post graduate series conducted throughout the years. A limited number of the state's practicing dentists attend the courses, which include both lectures and lab oratory work, to keep up-to-date on latest trends in dental practice and equipment. A state-wide testing program in j public schools and early years of college will help the students by point- ' ing out their weaknesses, and the institutions, by showing areas of needed study, three North Carolina educators said in the weekly Tues- i day Night Colloquium. Three views of testing were pre- sented by the speakers : Dr. W. D. Perry, director of the UNC Testing Service; Dr. Allen S. Hurlburt of Raleigh and Chapel Hill, assistant ' state superintendent of public in- ; struction; and Dr. Dennis H. Cooke,: president of High Point College and I the N. C. College Conference. Dr. Cooke emphasized that a test- ; ing program "is not intended to j compare and rate high schools nor i tD determine which are strong and j which are weak, but to determine the ! areas where the high school gradu ates are weak, with the view of cor lecting and strengthening these weaknesses." Major areas in which college fresh men are weak, Dr. Cooke said, are reading and vocabulary, writing and spelling, arithmetic problems and com putation, and especially, "in written and spoken English grammar and composition." The panel explained that annual fall testing beginning in the fourth grade would be the ideal pattern for a testing program, but a less exten sive compromise program would pro vide testing every fourth year, fol lowed by remedial work. Dr. Perry noted that public school personnel, "who are responsible for children's education in total develop ment, need a program of measurement and evaluation, and an outlook of the pupil's overall education, not merely his yearly experiences." Selection of high school graduates who will best profit from college edu cation will be an important benefit of a state testing series, Dr. Cook pointed out. "The institutions "will be able to identify seniors deserving scholarships," he added. Presiding at the program wras Dr. Gordon Ellis of the UNC School of Education, which sponsors the Tues day Colloquiums. The July 12 pro gram will include a film on French education reforms, and a discussion led bv Dr. W. Carson Rvan of UNC. First Summer Session's Last Square Dance Held The Square Dance held last Fri day night on the Patio of Woollen Gymnasium was the last such dance of the first session to be sponsored by the Summer Activities Council. Previous dances followed the Welcome Party and the Watermelon Festival. In spite of the rainy afternoon and evening, a crowd of more than 70 dancers turned out for the occasion. The weatherman co-operated by hold ing off the rain until the dance was over. Mrs. Beth Okun did a fine job of calling, and everyone enjoyed the variety of dances. Because of the enthusiasm shown, it has been decided to hold Square Dances every Friday night during the second session of Summer School. Present plans are that they will be held on the Patio of Woollen Gym. Chairman of arrangements is Ed Warehime of Durham. Men's Interdormitory (Continued from page 1) situation that should not be allowed to exist. It was decided to have the I. D. C. President look into the mat ter. Before closing the meeting Har rington appointed two committee chairmen. Named chairman of the Social Committee was Charlie Dunn, the I. D. C. Vice-President, Jack An gel, President of Ruffin Dormitory, was chosen Ptiblieity Committee chairman. Morehead Planetarium Displays Art Exhibit An exhibition of 27 water colors, pencil and wash drawings and oils and pen sket.cb.es by Geoffrey Jenkin son, English-born artist now residing in Thomasville, opened in the More head Art Gallery here this week co incident with acceptance of his third work for display by the Royal Acade my Art Gallery in London. This is the second exhibition at the Morehead Art Gallery by the young artist who has been in this country only since 1950. Nationaily recognized in England and accorded the honor of having a painting hung in the Royal Academy at the age of 21, Jenkinson's work has yet to be recognized in the U. S. to the extent that it has in his native land. English newspapers have carried a story about 29-year-old Jenkinson and published a three column picture of his newest painting. Now a member of the designing department of the Thomasville Chair Co., Jenkinson is showing in the Morehead Gallery a number of North Carolina scenes, including Lake Lure, Blue Ridge Mountains, a mountain valley, and an impression of Ran dolph County. Jenkinson's trademark is the minute detail and depth of field in his paintings. They and his sketches show a keen insight of both the metropoli tan as well as the rural scene. A quiet, unassuming person, Jen kinson devotes most of his spare time to artistic endeavors. His latest honor from the Royal Academy was paid to an English subject, "The Thames Clyde Express Leaving at St. Pan eras." It has prompted critics to say that he has achieved greater fame in the Royal Academy than any artist in this country, and possibly in his native land.
