Bird facing the problem of post-war reconstruction and the de mands on institutions of higher education by returning civilian armed forces, appointed Mr. Dod- son as chairman of the committee and our faculty accepted as a year's project the place of this college in the peace time world. Practically every faculty mem ber engaged in research or one phase of the following topics and made reports to the faculty as a whole from time to time duqing the year. Whether the college should continue primarily as a teacher training institution or de velop its liberal arts program; In solving this problem over 2,000 high school seniors in this sec tion were interviewed, either singly or in groups, as to the type of college they planned to attend and the typo of course they planned to follow : Study was made to the student body to determine their plans after SCOH'S SCRAP BOOK MlrLA By R.J.

As a result of this cooperative study during the year the follow ing conclusions were formulated. Most of them were incorporated by President Hunter in his regu lar annual report to the Board of Trustees and were accepted by that body and formed the basis for President Hunter's ten year ex pansion program of the college: 1. That since boys and girls in this section who are interested in omer neias man education are forced to go 300 to 350 miles to reach another state college for their training and many are con sequently deprived of a college education, therefore Western Car olina Teachers College needs to do the following things: 1. Enrich and reorganize the teacher training program. 2. Expand, enrich, and promote WOOD FOR SALE Phone 9169 H. W. Crawford the present requirements for a lib eral arts degree. 'i. Give B. S. degree which is professional in Chemistry, Business and Home Economics. 4. Set up pre - professional courses: (a) Dentistry: (b) Engi neering; (c) Laboratory Techni cian; (d) Law; (e) Medicine; (f) Agriculture; (g) Forestry (h) Nursing. 5. Set up the following special vocational courses for returning service men and women who will not take four years of college work: (a) Maintain the college farm as laboratory for vocational agriculture; (b) Give periodical short courses in various phases of farming suitable for conditions in western unrolina; (c) set up courses in general shop work, met al work, electrical work, wood work, cratts, and mechanical drawing. fi. Expand the science depart ment to include facilities for re search in this section such as gen eral information, research in the soils, minerals, opportunities fo developing electrical power, conser. vation, botony and zoology in this region. 7. Expand the music department. Such a program obviously can not be put into complete operation in one year, but the fact that it has been approved and accepted by those responsible for shaping the policies of the college is an indica tion of the tremendous influence this study stands to have on the lives of those who live in this sec tion of the state, not only on the students who will attend college but on the population as a whole who will be influenced by the ex panded program of service of the college.

Canton Bows To To Mountaineers By 26 To 0 Score Over 1,500 Fans Witness Annual Grid Tussel; Will Play Return Game Thanksgiving. The Canton Black Bears went down in defeat at the hands of the fast Waynesville Mountaineers in the first game of two scheduled for the season Friday night by a scor, of 26 to 0. Between 1500 and 2000 fans braved the elements to watch the annual grid tussle. It was thought during the after noon, when the Heavens let down a drizzle of rain continuously, that the game would have to be called off, but when darkness began to fall the rain let up and the game started on schedule. The field. well turfed, was not as fast as some would have liked it to be, but it was remarkable how the boys held on to the slick ball with only a minimum of fumbles. The Mountaineers put on the pressure early in the first quarter after starting a drive on their own 48 yard line down to the 8, where Evans plowed through to navdirt Phillips drove the line for the extra point. The Black Bears held the locals during the second period and at the half the score was 7 to 0. Early in the third quarter the Mountaineers started from deep in their own territory, and with Evans doing most of the carrying and Robinson shooting several passes the locals managed to get to the Canton 15 yard line, where Robin son passed to Collins for the second score of the game. The Mountain eers scored again late in the same period after driving from midfield with Brackett, substitute quarter back doing the majority of ball carrying down to the one, where he plunged through center for the talley. Shook drove the line for the extra point. Late in the closing period of the game the locals began another march to paydirt from their own 47 yard line down to the eight, where Robinson threw a flank pass to Phillips who fought his way across for the final touchdown of the game. At no time did the Black Bears Mountaineers Go To Hendersonville For Game Friday The Waynesville Mountaineers go to Hendersonville to meet the Bearcats in an afternoon cngame ment Friday of this week. The Waynesville gridmen came ouf of the Canton game in fair con dition, with only a few minor ifr juries that will be cured by game time Friday. The Mountaineers and Bearcats have long been rivals on the grid field, topped only by Canton. This year is no exception. The eBarcats are reputed to have a good team and are out to lick the local boys. Waynesville has lost one out of three games this season and con tinue to show improvement. r-7- MARRIED you LOOK LIKE A SENSIBLE threaten to cross the goal line, and during the course of the game the locals chalked up 21 first downs to none for the visitors. The Moun taineers were penalized a total of 70 yards against 10 for the Black Bears. At the opening of the game, both the Waynesville and Canton bands merged together to start the game with the national anthem. Again at the half the two bands performed with the visitors having first honors. When the local band had finished their maneuvers and form a large "W" a short memorial to those who have paid the supreme price from both schools and com munities was observed by a mom ent of silence with bowed heads while three of the members of the band sounded taps. Both bands were in excellent form and have shown much improvement in the short time they have been practic ing. The Mountaineers and Black Bears will meet agan on the Can ton field Thaksgiving Day.
