Bern E. Hr, r.''myer, 'vvho had re-'
signed to Ix'-come headmaster of
the American .^ch.ool for the
Deaf, West Hartfoivl, Conn.
Hc-r'' '.son went to Morganton

pro.grams were tligcussed, sc.me
refereners wnuid be made to the

olina I felt a great (real oif per-
; sonal pride in thiS retfei-ence. I
didn’t rtali-,ce that I would some
day liave the opportunity to be
come a part of such a line pro
gram.
"Becoming Superintendent of
NC-SD presented an opportunity
to be related to such a fine school
and al-so an oportunity to come
home to Noith Carolina. Coming
to the school Js a very splendi'.'.
tiling 'for mij- wife and me.’’

BOILING SPRINGS — The
girowing problem of Ihe ovei-
icrowded state schools and the
slowly decreasing enroUment t
1 fHVdie colleges was given close
! stul-iy by a group of legislative
par.didates and private and pub-
; lie ooJlege officials at Glardner-
Webb College. Ten Candidates
were present along with officials
from Gaston College, Belmeni
Abbey and Gariner-jWebb Col
lege.
j This was one of a series of
! such meet ings being held over
1 the state with d'ficials of private
I schools who are members of the
‘ N'orth Carolina Associiation of
Independent Colleges and Univ
ersities.
'Virgil MdBride, exeeutive dir
ector of Ihe rollege group-, point
ed out several factors wh-iich are
■causing the problem. He haid
lorty-one private colleges in
North OarolirJa cbail.e an aver
age of $1,075 per .year for tuition
end fees while fifteen state col
leges or universities charge $1S0
for the same services ar.i,j the

It was pointed out by the .col
lege officilals that last year 'there
were more than 3000 empty spa
ces in private colleges while the
state schools were overflcwing
It was estimated that it would
cost the state at least $28,000,000
to p-mvide snace in state colleges
or universities for those students
now in private colleges. This is
an indication of hiow much it
would cost the state to provide
teaching facilities for 26,000 stu
dents now in private scihools.
