Jr. Red Cross Drive Going Forward In Schools Of County Pennies and more pennies they are adding up in Macon county schools this, week, as children join in the Junior Red Cross drive. One penny enrolls a child as a member, and, except for the small sums which bring the Red Cross journals to class rooms, the money I is used as a service fund to help refuge children. Last year, with 3,400 Junior Red Cross members enrolled, Macon county was short only 100 pupils of having 100 percent enrollment of the schools. The sum raised was $93.00. This year, due to the illneSs of Mrs. Lola P. Barrington who is chairman of the Junior Red Cross, teachers are handling the drive through their classrooms. They have been asked to turn in their reports to the Franklin Press or to Mrs. Barrington as soon as pos sible. "The work of the Junior Red Cross continues in other phases throughout the year. Last year, 300 garments, slippers, robes and "house-wives" were sent to soldiers at Fort Blanning, while boxes were sent at Christmas to the crippled children in the orthopedic home at Gastonia. All of the articles were made by Junior Red Cross members of the Franklin school, through the coorporation with Mrs. Barrington, of Mrs. O'Neil's home economic classes. Similai production work is being planned for the coming year. Cullowhee, Nov.. 9. (Special) The three state teachers colleges, Western Carolina Teachers Col lege, at Cullowhee, Appalachian State Teachers College, at Boone, and Eastern Carolina Teachers College, at Greenville, are equiva lent to one good sized university, and should be treated as such by the state, said Dr. H. T. Hunter, president of Western Carolina Teachers College, in a report to the students on the' results of his study of the three white teachers colleges in North Carolina. At the beginning of his report, Dr. Hunter explained that he had made an intensive survey of the general status of the three insti tutions because of repeated ques tioning on the part of various in terested people and because of the continual legislative fights concerning appropriations. Population was the first consid eration made by President Hunter in comparing resources pf the three colelgs. Since the majority of the outlying regions for Cullo whee axe practically all taken up in national parks and forest, he told his listeners, its population is naturally smaller. The Cullowhee region is lacking also in high school enrollment, in high school graduates, and in total incomes per farm. The total high school graduates from the Cullowhee area is approximately 2300; however, in proportion to school areas and Te lative populations, Cullowhee leads in attendance from her own area. Based on the distance from each school to the respective county seats, the logical patronage areas made by President Hunter show 12 counties for Cullowhee, 55 coun ties for Greenville, and 33 coun ties for Boone. An, important observation made by President Hunter is the fact that student migration seems to be from East to West rather than from Wesk to East. A study of enrollments at the three teach ers colleges show that 222 stftdents frdm counties of the Boone and Greenville territories are now en rolled at Cullowhee, while thirty six stjdents from the Cullowhee territory are enrolled at Boone and Greenville. After presenting a variety of facts of this sort, Mr. Hunter concluded by saying, "Cullowhee is a small college, handicapped to an extent by its geography, by its population, and by its lack of wealth, but it is triumphing over these handicaps and is striving to ward being the best little college in the entire state of North Carolina.
