Education In U. S.
Nearing Disaster,
Observer Finds
NEW YORK (UP) Edward Al
vey, Jr.. dean of Mary Washington
College, says the nation's educa
tion system is heading for disaster.
Alvey, in an article written for
the new Encyclopedia Americana
Annual, said the current crisis in
our schools, caused by the shortage
of teachers and lack of facilities,
is going to get progressively worse.
Alvey finds that an increase of
more than 30 per cent in children
of elementary school ages is ex
pected for the 10 year period of
1942 to 1952.
"Such a trend has obvious im
plications for elementary and sec
ondary school enrollments," Al
vey said. "Already the effects of
the increasing birthrate are being
felt in the lower grades of the ele
mentary schools."
Youngsters Increasing
Alvey estimated that there will
be nearly 3,000,000 six-year-olds
by 1952, an increase of about
1,000,000 in 10 years.
"This will only serve to aggra
vate an already dangerous shortage
of qualified teachers," Alvey said.
He estimated that at least 350,000
trained teachers left the profes
sion during the last five years.
"At present," Alvey said, "there
are more than 100,000 teachers
working with 'emergency certifi
cates' because they lack the mini
mum teacher qualifications."
Alvey added that since 1942 the
average collegiate preparation of
teachers had dropped approxi
mately one year.
Low Pay Blamed
The dean said the major cause
of the teacher shortage was low
pay scales.
Alvey finds the outlook "in the
higher education plants continues
to be grimly tight." The enroll
ment for last year, he said, doubled
the previous one.
Octogenarian Believes People Who

Woman, 63, Is Happy
With Her Hermit Life
GLOVERSVILLE, N. Y. (UP) '
Men apparently haven't a corner
on the hermit market.
There s Mrs. Myrtle Segua, aged
63.
She lives alone in a cabin off an
isolated road not far from here.
Though not a hermit in the
strctest sense, because she isn't,
anti-social, Mrs. Segua left city life
behind her two years ago because
of the housing shortage. Every
time she thought she was settled in
a house ,she had to move.
Now she owns two rural lots and
her own cabin. And she isn't lonely.
"I work too hard in the winter
and now you can see my com
pany," Mrs. Segua said, pointing
to a nest of robins on the window
ledge.
