The hour-long motion picture, “A Desk for Billie” is the story of a nbw successful author, lecturer, and editor who was once the un derprivileged child of hobo par ents. The film is the Centennial film of the National Education Association and the North Caro lina Education Association. Mrs. Billie Davis, whose? true life story is the subject of the film, first come to public atten tion in Missouri when she spoke before small groups of school teachers and parents about her career. Her fame as a speaker, and as a person who rose from utter poverty with the help of American schools and teachers, grew until the National Education Association and affiliated State Associations chose her story for the first feature-length film they have produced. 1 “A Desk for Billie” follows Mrs. Davis from early childhood when, haunted by poverty, she began to want “to go to school, to be a real person, clean and smooth, and to j V wit ’ * aS **\ 6 bottle carton PEPSI COLA BOTTLING COMPANY, Inc.

How different it was twel ve years ago! Today I glanced over an application for a teach ! ing position from a man who re ceived his first Ph.D in 1932 in Kiev, Russia. He has almost completed another Ph.D at the University of Michigan. He is a Christian member of the Greek Orthodox Church. As my eye ran down his record I noticed these entries: ‘T93B-1941. I was under arres’t as an antii-communist and imprisoned in a concentration camp, Siberia . . . 1941. Released from camp . . . 1942 Evacuated by Germans to Germany. Conscripted as a forced laborer by German 1 army.” That ended in 1945 with a the end of the war. s How thankful we should all be e that our young men may go on ? with their educational plans to day without the interruption of k war.
