should not in clude freshmen he added the problem is not one of 4 but one of class unity against house unity while a class is segregated during the freshman year class spirit as opposed to house

pulling them down to the amazement of the police who were having enough trouble on the ground without looking into the air for lassos but the winning of the posts soon became secondary a targum editor seated in the stands was incensed to the point that he went back to new brunswick to write a burning editorial demanding that no similar incidents should occur and that a letter of apology be sent by lehigh to rutgers according to a rutgers editor it all started at the rutgers lehgh game — that everybody knows but where it will end or if it has ended — nobody seems to know — at least they won't

has cited the acquiring of adequate teachers adequately trained with adequate ability as the real problem facing american education today in devoting the largest portion of his annual report to an analiza tion of education president whitaker also noted the tragedy of an educational program which encourages the really brilliant youngsters to get by as they can by using only ten percent of their ability and pointed out that we must turn more and more attention to that part of our education which occurs before a child is put under the influence of a teacher president whitaker cited as the real basis of our difficulty the fact that we have not seen fit to place our teachers in a desirable economic or social spot in our scheme of things 1 this he said is in contrast to many other countries including germany england and especially rus sia now he noted however that within the past two or three years a trend has developed which if continued will return teaching to one of the most desirable professions and eventually will solve the problem of adequate supply of teachers adequately prepared and adequately motivated the preferred and accepted method of getting adequately pre pared teachers president whitaker said is to make the professions that are most important most attractive in every sense of the word the president emphasized that the finding of room for students is not the real problem today pointing out that probably not more than a hundred of the 1,800 colleges in the country are filled to capacity at the present time he noted that there is a bit of misunderstanding of the things that are said about this con dition he said you can build buildings with surprising ease comparatively speaking and rather quickly some times we don't think they come quickly but compared to other prob lems they do one of these other problems is the acquiring of adequate teachers the president showed concern in see whitaker page 3 solon petitions due on nov 21 petitions for membership to
