Major Problems in the Teaching
of Reading was the subject of the
conference held at the college train-
ing school Saturday, February 13,
attended by about five hundred teach-
ers from the eastern part of this
state. The conference was called by
Miss Hattie S. Parrot, of the State
Department of Public Instruction,
who opened the first meeting at 10:00
o'clock Saturday morning. She pre-
sented the schedule for the day and
explained the purpose of the confer-
ence, saying that it is in keeping with
a plan of the state department to es-
tablish clinics throughout the state
in order that teachers may discover
the difficulties in reading' and also
learn something of the most success-
ful methods in preventing and over-
coming these difficulties.
Registration Blanks
I pon arriving at the 'Training
School the teachers were given regis-1
tration blanks on which space was'
provided for them to write any prob-
lems that they wished to hear dis-j
cussed. Dr. C. L. Adams was in j
charge of the open discussion, which
included the major problems intro-
duced by the teacher. The following
questions called forth the most re-
Bponse: How can you find out if a
child is ready to read; and if he is
not. what can you do? What can
yon do to help children who read
each word separately? How and
when should new words in a lesson

group children for reading? What
can be done with three or four very
poor readers in a class ?
Tour School
At the close of the discussion the
teachers made a tour of the training
school, examining the looks. maps,
charts, pictures, and other equip-
ment for reading activities which
were on display in the classroom.

the Social Security Act. She talked
to combinations of classes which
met in the Austin Auditorium dur-

Mrs. Hill outlined the subject
under five heads, and in the series
of talks covered these, emphasizing
some special topic in each talk. In
explaining the provisions of the
Social Security Act, as adopted on
August 14. 11)). she enumerated
the types of aid for which the act
provides under five main headings:
1. Federal old age benefits; ?.
Old age assistance; Unemploy-

Austin Smith, student here last
quarter has been declared the 4-H
club member with the best all-round
record for 19.36 in Pitt County, and
as a result will be awarded a free
scholarship to the 1937 State Short

latter part of July. He has also
received a wrist watch as a result
of his record with his corn project.
He was selected on the basis of
bis production record as shown by
his 4-11 record books; his participa-
tion in club and community activi-
ties?such as exhibits, judging con-
test fairs, achievement day pro-
grams, etc by his leadership in his

zations; by his story of his 4-H club

ship to the North Carolina State

State School Forces Take
Increase Without A Fight
The oldtimers in the Capitol City
are doing a little wondering these
days after the state school forces
made no fight whatever in the house
for a larger appropriation for
schools and took the ten per cent sal-
ary increase recommended by the
appropriations committee without so
much as a murmur. But those who
know what is going on behind the
scenes in both educational and polit-
ical circles, feel sure that they know
the reasons for the apparent inac-
tivity.
In the first place, the educational
leaders upon whom the teachers and
superintendents depended to make
their fight, realize they are fortunate
to get an appropriation averaging
$24,500,000 a year, which provides
for a 10 per cent increase in sal-
aries.
The second reason the school
leaders and N. C. Education Asso-
ciation decided not to fight for any
higher salaries, however, is because
they are more anxious to have cer-
tain changes made in the machinery
bill than to get more money for the
teachers, those who know what is
really going on agree.
In other words, they want to get
the present school machine act
changed so that the State Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction will
be both chairman and secretary of
the State School Commission, and

The scene of the party after the
show was changed to the "Y" hut.
where the guests were served hot
chocolate and doughnuts by mem-
bers of the senior cabinet. About
one hundred and seventy-five were
served. Miss Marie Dawson, chair-
man of the social committee, was
in charge of the entertainment.
The "Y" Hut was the scene of a
lovely supper Sunday night, Febru-
ary 14, in honor of Miss Mary Her-
ring. This was sponsored by the
Senior Cabinet Members. A cold
plate was served by the social com-
mittee, of which Marie Dawson is
chairman. The guests were Presi-

A wedding of more than usual
interest to all East Carolina stu-
dents, faculty and alumnae was the
womanless wedding which took
place in the East Carolina chapel on
December 18, tt80.
This wedding of unusual interest
was solemnized at 0:30 o'clock when
Prof. A. D. Frank became the bride
of Prof. Beecher Flanagan.
The impressive ring ceremony
was performed by Prof. E. L. Hen-
derson and the vows were spoken
before an improvised altar deco-
rated with cherry blossoms and
candles. Prior to the ceremony.
Miss Sallie doyner Davis lighted
the candles, thereby making the al-
tar one of enchanting beauty.
Immediately preceding the cere-
mony. Miss Davis escorted Prof.

lered some musical selections and
Mr. Adams sang "dust Before the

Mr. Austin wore a unique costume
and Mr. Adam- was attired in a
pink beaded evening gown, black
hat and gray squirrel choker.
At the strains of the wedding
march the flower girls, R. 3. Slay,
and Prof. R. C. Deal, entered carry-
ing large laundry baskets of pink
and blue rose petals which they
scattered in the paths of the bride
and groom. Dr. Slay was dressed
in a dainty white dress with much
lace and yellow accessories, includ-

Prof. Deal was charming in a blue
basque dress with pink accessories.
Mr. dames A. Keech. principal of

from the snow that threatens you
with a perpetual squint. In addi-

their eyes intact. It can be done and
there's no reason why you shouldn't
manage it in reasonable comfort.
Several things you eau do for your
eyes. First of all. be careful always
to read in a good light. That means
having enough light so that you
don't have to strain your eyes, and
it also means avoiding a glare on
the page. Second, try to sit up
while you read. It may mean more
effort for you than lying down, but

Third, give your eyes plenty of
rest. This doesn't mean that you
must stop reading every fifteen
minutes and go to sleep. But you
should lift your eyes from the page
every half hour or so and look
around. This forces the many little
muscles in the eyes to change posi-
tion. It prevents tension and strain.

refreshing powers of exercise.
Fourth, give your eyes a bath

made some provision for washing

President of Yale University Says
Athletic Teams Should Play Col-
leges with Similar Standards
New Haven. Conn.?(A OP)?
College and university athletic
teams should compete only with
other institutions which follow a set
of standards similar to theirs, sug-
gested President dames Rowland
Angell of Yale University in his an-
nual report.
Condemning professionalism in
college circles, he stated:
"The impression is abroad that
the recruiting of high school stu-
dents for college athletic teams has
reached a new peak and that the
practice of paying college athletes
for their services is now more wide-
I spread than before.
"I am not in a position to pass
judgment on the correctness of these
i impressions he said, "but that the
procedures mentioned are extreme-
ly pernicious, I am obliged to be-
lieve. Needless to say. they are most
obnoxious where they are surrepti-
tious and carried on in defiance of
regulations intended to prevent
them.
"The frank defense of subsidiz-
ing athletes now so frequently-
heard, even by college representa-
tives, reflects either a council of de-
spair or a divergence of ideals and
standards so fundamental that the
general agreement is not to be hoped
for.
?'It seems expedient for each in-
stitution to cultivate athletic re-
I lations only with those whose views
and practices substantially coincide
with its own. This will lead to eon-
tests as nearly equal as can be ar-
ranged and should do much to
minimize bad feelings, he stated.
Dealing also with the depression s
effects on the national educational
system. Dr. Angell "s report pointed
out that hard times had taught the
j people that education instead of In
longing to the "young or the pri"
eged few, lies at the yet

versities had gained lasting hem

"D's" were alone responsible for
the dramatic reputation of the
school. The special duty of the class
adviser, Mr. Deal, was to get the girls
so they could act with manly swag-
ger and gusto, even to sticking their
hands in their pockets right.
Several plays were directed by
a friend of Miss Muffley. Adele
Nathan, who had a national reputa-
tion as director of Community
Drama in Baltimore and the State
of Maryland, coached the beautiful

Dr. Howard Y Williams
Speaks To Students Here
Paints Picture of a Black Future
Confronting This Gener-
ation
Dr. Howard Y. Williams, leader
of the Greenville Public Forum last
Thursday night spoke to the Col-
lege students the morning of Feb-
ruary l! on '?The Major Problem
Facing This Generation of Youn?r
People and that is distribution.
He quoted statistics from a sur-
vey showing that even in 1929 there
should have been no real overpro-
duction.
He painted a picture of the black
future confronting this generation,
showing the problem of distribu-
tion remaining unsolved. His dic-
tion was that as a result a deeper
depression than the last would fol-
low, and that an ensuing war would
practically annihilate civilization.
He painted the present situation,
with its millions of unemployed
adults, its young with no future,
and its boys and jrirls unable to suc-
ceed in school for lack of proper liv-
ing conditions, and this situation.
he believes, constitutes a direct
menace to any career this gener-
ation may enter.
Throughout his talk he empha-
sized the fact that the masses must
organise on an economic and po-
litical plane to prevent the in-
equalities between production and
distribution.
Men must learn how to handle
machinery, he said, so it will in-
crease production with a subse-
quent demand for more laborers to
al sorb tlu.se that machinery has dis-
placed.

Before closing Dr. Williams pic-

follow if this generation solves in-
telligently the problems he stated,
and be expresses his belief that the
young people will thing through and
conquer. The result will be a state
of society in which all men will have
a chance to secure at least the mini-
mum standards of living.
The Vesper services Sunday night,
February 14, closed the three-day
seras of YWCA services and confer-
ences held by Miss Mary Herring,
of Raleigh, who was the guest quar-
terly speaker for the YWCA.
The life of Jesus and its relation
to the lives of young people, espe-
cially those in college today, was the
subject of her talk Sunday night.
The life of Jesus in its holiness can-
not be reproduced, she said, but his
spirit has been given to people. No
matter how rushed He was, she stat-
ed, his life was always characterized
with the utmost poise, for He knew
how to spend each moment of his
time. He understood and was wise
in speaking with people and was al-
ways sufficient for every sacrifice.
He went about doing good, she point-
ed out, always using every oppor-
tunity to express the love of God
for his fellowmen.
Miss Herring compared the per-
sonalities of people with the lights
of stained glass windows, each dif-
ferent but each perfect, yet none
could be more beautiful without the
light of God glowing through them.
Her concluding thought was that
God has given people all the neces-
sary equipment for being good Chris-
tians but what they do with it re-
mains with them.

FRANCES FIELDS REVIEWS
"VICTORIOUS LIVING"
Victorious Living, written by Dr.
E. Stanley Jones, was reviewed at
the College YWCA Vesper Services,
by Miss Fiances Fields, Presby-
terian Student Worker, last Sunday
night.
1 lie life of Dr. Jones, she said,
was a glow of the gospel teachings,
ami Victorious hiring was a reply
to a letter he received asking him
how one could acquire that inner
poise one hears so much about.
Prayer which is a practice of God,
he gives as one of the essentials.
Miss Fields then read several
thoughts from his book, among
which are: "In searching for a vic-
torious living, begin with a search
of Go In order to find God,
one must give up oneself and follow
Christ, the Savior "Life that is
lived off the surface roots instead of
the depths is not fully and truly
lived "Out of the calm comes the
forces that shape the world
A quartette, "I've Anchored My
Soul" was sung by Misses Edna
Earle Perry, Frances Currin,
Catherine Cheek and Madeline
Eakes.
Alice Alligood was hostess at an
informal get-together in her room
Thursday evening, February 18.
After a few games of bridge, the
hostess, assisted by Nancy L. Moore,
served spiced tea cookies, and ritz.
About 10 girls enjoyed the occasion.
There has been a "hope chest"
started on the west wing of Flem-
ing Hall. One dish cloth is already
completed.
A specially arranged train trip
was a novel treat of the pupils of
Miss Johnston's second grade at the
training School. Many of the pupils
had never experienced a train ride
before; therefore, much excitement
was caused bv the unusual occasion.
President L. R. Meadows and Dr.
H. J. McGinnis, registrar, were in
New Orleans last week representing
East Carolina Teachers College at
meetings of the American Associa-
tion of Teachers Colleges and the
National Education Association.
On Thursday, afternoon the
Methodist Student Sunday school
council held a meeting at Miss Zoe
Anna Davis's home. Topics were
discussed for the student organiza-
tion meetings to be held during the
remainder of the year. It was de-
cided that Miss Davis would speak
at the organization meeting Thurs-
day night, February 25, on "What
to Believe Plans were also dis-
cussed for the student banquet to
be held in the spring.
The many friends of Miss Lois
V. Gorrell are delighted to know
that after an extended illness, she
is again in her studio at the College,
meeting her piano and violin pupils.
Her first venture out was to attend
the piano recital on Thursday night,
when several of her pupils played.
Mrs. Paul Davenport has been
meeting Miss Gorrell's piano pupils,
and Miss Lucy Nulton has been
meeting the violin pupils.

SILICON FAMILY
INTERESTING TO
SCIENCE MAJORS
The story of the Silicon family
was made extremely interesting by
members of the Science club of the
College at their February meeting
held last week. After the Silicon
family was introduced by Ray
Pruett, Miss Margaret Davis told
of numerous uses of Silicon, some
of the more important being: the
making of glass, jewelry, pearls,
paints and cleaning fluids. Then
the magic of the Silicon family was
shown by Joe Hatem in the making
of a Silicon garden, by the use of
salts of different metals.
Plans were made to stage a car-
nival on April 9, in the Robert H.
Wright building and a committee
to work with these was appointed
composed of: Roy Barrow, Joe
Hatem, Ray Pruette and Misses
Margaret Davis and Cathryn Al-
britton. In addition to these plans,
others were made with regard to the
annual club trip which will take the
place of the open house day held for
the past two years. The committee
to work on further plans for Science
Club Day is composed of Misses Fan-
nie Brewer, Elizabeth D. Johnson,
Sudie Williamson, Callie Charlton
and Primrose Carpenter, while the
club trip committee is composed of
Wesley Bankston, Misses Hattie
Holland and Onie Cochran.
MUSIC LOVERS ENJOY
WINTER QUARTER RECITAL
An audience of music lovers en-
joyed the winter term recital given
by the piano students of the college
on the evening of February 18, in
the Robert II. Wright auditorium.
The program, which was made
more interesting to the listeners In-
brief explanations by Miss Mead, in
which she told something of the
characteristics of the compositions
and composers, opened with a Bach
Invention, followed by a Gigue by
Martini and Allegro by Bach, all
of which were written in true class-
ical form, and effectively played by
Misses Jean Corey, Melba Phillips
and Pauline Nelson.
Pierne's March of the Little Lead
Soldiers, rendered by Miss Annie
Laurie Hodgcse, was particularly
interesting because it made the
audience feel that little lead soldiers
had actually come to life, marching
in the distance, coming closer and
then the last thing heard was the
beating of the drums as they
marched away.
In contrast were two descriptive
numbers, A Spinning Wheel, by
Godard, and Rustle of Spring, by
Sinding, effectively played by Miss
Grace Freeman and Miss Edith
Dixon.
Another type of music, by
Chopin, who Ls perhaps the most
pianistic of the composers, was pre-
sented by Misses Mary Evelyn
Thompson and Elizabeth Tolson.
when they played Waltz in D Flat.
The two numbers, Lento, bv
Scott and The Mother of the Cradle
by Juon, played by Misses Christine
Alford and Zylda Cooper, lent con-
trast to the program because of
their modernistic harmonies.
The program ended with De-
bussey's Arabesque, No. 2, played
by Miss Nola Walters, which made
a fitting ending of a lovely program.
This is the first time that the new
concert grand piano has been used
for a recital and both musicians and
audience enjoyed its beautiful tone.
(Continued from page one)
thus gel control of the allocation oi,
the $24,500,000 a year of school
funds, if this can be done, the su
perintendents believe they could
force the School Commission, by
bringing pressure to bear on the
chairman, to fie more and more
liberal with them in return for
which they could then assure him
of leing re-elected every four years.
For if the State Superintendent
should be chairman of the School
Commission, he would be responsi-
ble to and removable by the people
only in the election every four years.
And since most city and county
school superintendents are politi-
cians as well as school men, usually
"standing in" with the dominant
faction in each county, whether or
not tlie State Superintendent was re-
elected would be up to the county
and city superintendents.
Boiled down to the bone, tin; sit-
uation is that the school politicians
have decided that it is better to stop
fighting for more salaries for teach-
ers and fight instead for more con-
trol of the school funds by the state
and county superintendents, most
observers agree. Some of these
frankly admit that it will be worth
going without what they want in
the form of an appropriation and
salary increases for two years, if by
SO doing they can get control of the
spending of the school money. If
they can get this control, they are
confident they can build up an or-
ganization which can then get more
and more money in the future. So
they have now deliberately decided
to sell the teachers short on salaries
in order to be in a better position
with the general assembly in the
hope of getting control of the money-
spending and salary schedule-making
machinery, which now rests in the
State School Commission, some oi
those who should know what is go-
ing on, are charging. They are als
charging that if this comes about,
that the superintendents and princi-
pals, rather than the teachers, will
get the lion's share when it conns t
re-making the salary schedules.
