PAGB THREE SL;;:;:i:-::::.;vziJTB;;:rsa Capsule Facts On ?53 Traffic Acadents " North Carolina institutions of hisrh-11 er learning 'will, graduate next month 66$ persons" Who plai to teach in the white elementary schools of the State. Based on the Remand for the current year,' however, there is ' a' need for 1,707 teacheni'in this field. ; Thus there" will be more than 1,000 fewer properly trained teachers for' the ele mentary 'schools for white children of the State than will be available. These facts are1 disclosed in recent Study made by Dr. . Jamea.H. Hillman of the State Department of Public In struction. , In this study supply indi cates the number of students who will graduate from North Carolina colleges this year and who will qualify for a Class A teacher's certificate. The de mand, on the other hand, is the num ber of new teachers employed in 1953" 54. And a new teacher is defined as a teacher who taught in 1953-64 but who did not teach anywhere ' in 1952-63. !;" f :'; -' s'"' In addition to what has been stated above, there is (or will be) a suffi rlAnt . minnlv of . elementary teachers for the Negro race and for all high schools." On the assumption that all students who prepare to teach actual ly teach, there is an oversupply in most subject areas in the high school According to Dr. Hillman, this as sumption should not be made. Based on replies from one-third of those who prepared to teach' in 1952-53, it was found that 87.9 per cent of those who prepared to be elementary white teach ers in 1952-53 actually taught in 1963 64. Of those (one-third of the cases) who prepared to teach in the second ary school (finishing college) in 1953, only 55.9 per cent taught, in 1953-54. It would appear, therefore,- that the shortage indicated would be greater and the oversupply for the. hijjh school would be much less than apparent Hillman savs. "On the data furnished. to give the profession 1,000 elemen- refreshments and fellowship. It should tary teachers would require an output be time when the whole family can .of less than 1.200 teachers, whereas eat unhurriedly and share pleasant for the same number of ' secondary conservation. And when you go to teachers would require an output of the dinner table, leave" your troubles Denina. jno one UKes to mix them with roast beef and potatoes. . , According to Mrs. Grirnsley, some families plan for their good times just as carefully as they plan the work that needs to be done, for they know that when families play together, they usually stay together. These families take time to read together, go picnick ing, and to play games together. These ate Jthe families ..who have .found that family living is much hap pier when they share their fun with one another. , Of 244 pedestrians killed on North Carolina ' streets and highways last year, 196 were males, reports the Mo tor Vehicles Department " One , hundred and , eleven walkers were guilty of attempting to cross streets in mid-block. , Eighteen were killed at intersections. Fifty were walking? to the roadway.' ' : ' : ; Nineteen were fatally injured com ing from behind parked cars. Six were killed playing in the roadway, six were lying in the roadway, three were getting off another vehicle, and two were hitching onto another vehicle. , Qf the 1,547 pedestrians injured last year, 1,217. of them were hurt-during daylight hours. . Mealtime Fun Builds Strong- Family Ties Is yours an eat-and-run family? If so, you are all missing out on a great deal, says Corinne Grirnsley, State College extension specialist in family relations. ? Mrs. Grirnsley adds that the eat-and-run practice is too common among American families today. Good times are important to happy and harmoni ous family living. There are many occasions when happy childhood mem ories give us courage and comfort in later life. : In many families, mealtime is more or less a come and go affair with members eating hurriedly and rushing off to something else. . " " Mrs. Grjmsley says that at least one meal a day should be a time for both New Peanut Tested -In Demonstrations In order to (keep a' close check ,on the yielding abilities of the two new ly released peanut varieties, N. C. No. 1 and No. 2. eight demonstrations have been set up on farms in the eight major peanut producing counties of North Carolina. i! This series of demonstrations will also check a newer peanut variety, known only as c-42, according to As tor Perry, peanut specialist for the State College Extension Service. , In the tests, N. C. No. 1 and Noi 2 will be tested for yield against farm stock nuts and the c-42 variety. Per ry says each 'demonstration consists of five pounds of N. C. No. 1, No. 2, c-42 and farm stock nuts. , "... .'In tests by, the North Carolina Ag ricultural Experiment Station the c-42 has shown up well, says Perry. If it continues to' do so, it will very likely be releasedwiin the next two years as a third new hybrid variety resulting from the' 'breeding program under way at State. College since 1944. Visitors To Parks Of State Are Increasing Full facilities, including; swimming and bathing wiffbe made available to the-general public at all Etate park? for the duration of the summer sea son. . Director Ben E. Douglas of the State Department of Conservation and De velopment, Which includes the Divis ion of State Parks under Parks Super intendent Thomas W. Morse, predicted that total attendance this year at the State 'parks will-eclipse that of last year when it was 1,224.237 Checked attendance at the parks during the first four months of this year, Morse said, was 258,254. "Reports from ''park personnel," Douglas said, "indicate that a growing number of visitors to our State parks are using them instead of just visiting them. This is a healthy sign. We want to encourage all citizens to use our park facilities more arid more." fact some 1600 secondary teachers." The significant thing is the that, only 60 (24 county and 34 city) of the 174 units, approximately 30 per cent, have "produced" a suffici ent number of white teachers this year to fill their respective demands. "The statement is indicative as to this sit uation as a whole and may not be true for each respective unit. " This is true because the demand figures are for the year 195754 school year, whereas the "number of teachers produced" are this year's graduates who will be available for employment during 1954 65. In view of the fact, therefore, that the total teachers produced in 1952-53 was approximately identical to the number to be produced this year, the picture as revealed is substantially correct. ;.1rv'; ' -''.' .;"' ' Insofar as individual units are Con cerned, however, the per cent of teach- "EVERY TIME BELL RINGS I PRAY!"

Read this revealing story in the indicative. Although not 100 per cent! June 13th issue of correlation, there is a close relation in most instances between the "per cent of teachers produced" and the "per cent of .demand" as presented.
