NORMAL READY FOK WEST CHESTER TILT One of Hardest Foes on Bioom> burg Normal Schedule. V. All the "boys are in good shape for the invasion of West Chester, Saturday afternoon. The victory over Lock Haven has instilled much confidence into the Normal eleven and the Maroon and Gold boys should give West Chester a great battle next Saturday up on Mt. Olympus. The team invading us are almost as powerful in its thrusts and stunts as anything that treads on the gridiron. *• This, together with the excellent fo rm displayed by our boys in the first two games, is evidence enough that we may look forward to a deadly combat between two teams that would die fighting rather than go down to defeat. As a traditional battle there is probably no other game played by school teams where so much enthusiasm is shown and the outcome will be watched with much interest. Although West Chester is one of our hardest foes we hope to come out victorious and put a dent in their line large enough for everyone on "the side lines to go through. We can do it if we want to , so let 's keep up the cry of going through the season undefeated and put them down as we did our first two victims this season. The probable line-up for this game will be: Left End Bradshaw Left Tackle Left End Center . Right Tackle Right End Ri ght Guard Quarter Back Left Half Back Right Half Back Full Back Austin Mercalf Swinehart Hawki ns Wadas Fritz Keller Sorber Walsh McGrath The West Chester backfield is very dangerous and is composed of "Scott, Hopkins , Roscoe and Adams. Bales, a line man, has also been featuring. LIEUTENANT-COMMANDER R. E. BYRD TO LECTURE Will Give in Detail Experience oi Flight Over North Pole. Mr. Elwell , representing the Kiwanis Club , of Bloomsburg, spoke to the students asking their assistance in bringing Lieutenant-Commander Richard E. Byrd, U. S. N., to our Auditorium on November 30th. Lieut. Bryd will give in detail the experiences of his famous flight over the North Pole. This is certainly a worth-while project but it also puts forth a financial problem which can be solved if the Normal students will cooperate. The response of the students to Mr. Elwell's appeal was very gratifying in that many have pledged themselves to buy $1.00 tickets. With the hearty cooperation of the people of Bloomsburg and 'the Normal students Lieutenant-Commander Byrd will be with us on the evening of November 30th. — [Beat Wyoming]— ALPHA DELTA ZETA NEWS.

The scenery was designed by Anna Wendel and the cover for the programme was made by Sterling Strausser. The programme this year is dedicated ' to the children of the Training School and will include many cuts in addition to letters which have been received from some of the country ' s leading educators. It is the plan of the Art Department to print articles concerning the educational advantages of such projects as well as their direct practical application. Some of the contributors to this year 's programme include such men as Fred erick G. Bonser, Fr ank Alvah Pa rsons , Cecil B. DeMille and J ohn Barr ymore. These leaders will discuss the value of such a project to their particular field. Professor Keller states that the play this year is by far the largest and best Art Club creation and he is confident that it will surpass all previous records. — [Beat Wyoming]— I tin NOT SO BAD AFTER ALL,!

Many Inquiries in Reference to the Four-Year Course. Many inquiries are coming in tc the office in reference to the four-: year course. Young men and women are beginning to realiz^ that it is possible to secure a college education if they wish to teach , at a school like ours for much less money than would be required at private colleges. At the same time they have discovered that the work at a school HkJ ours is on as high a plane and sometimes more effective than that at many liberal arts colleges. Oui school will soon issue a pamphle! to explain in detail the opportun ity now offered to prospectivf teachers to secure a degree here. The boys from Mt. Olympus journeyed to Lock Haven last Saturday and took as their victims of defeat the Normal gridiron warriors of that town. Still rejoicing from the victory accomplished over Freeland two weeks ago , the boys had shown much more figh t and spirit- than before, proving their worth as a gridiron machine.

Continued From Page 1. ed by the information obtained in the previous step, exploration , presents the unit in the rough to give a bird's eye view of it and its meaning which occupies about twenty minutes cf a period ; while the remaining thirty minutes are used in testing the understanding of what the teacher has given. This is an essay test stressing good English and form and showing an understanding of the idea rather than a verbal account of what the teacher has just given. This test is carefully read by the teacher and those who show an understanding of it may begin the next step, assimilation , while those who ' have not mastered it are retaught and retested until they do , unless th ey show themselves to be "problem cases. " The third step, assimilation , begins individual study of the unit guided by mimeographed sheets which give an organized account of the unit with references. The sheet contains two types , minimal essentials which all are expected to master and voluntary exercise for those who have finished these and can do more before ! the class is called together for the next step. Thus all the work is done in school with the teacher giving 'i ndividual help as it is needed ; thus insuring the formation of the right study habits. When the class have all completed the minimal essentials material , they are ready to organize their material which is in the form of an outline written in class without reference to books or notes. This is not considered as a test, though it is a test of a rigorous sort. As this point the class is ready for the recitation which can now be carried on with interest and profit. The time consumed in these five steps is exploration , one lesson ; presentation, one or more lessons ; assimilation , probably twelve lessons ; organization, one lesson ; recitation, probably three lessons. Dr. J. Lynn Barnard, Director of Socied Studies in the Department of Public Instruction , att ended the confer ence and participated Dr. in the various activities. Ba: nard commented very favorably on the work of the Normal School and of the Trainin g School as revealed by the demonstrations staged by members of the Training School Staff.

The standards of admission to the Normal Schools of the State are higher now than they have ever been. No student is now admitted unless he has graduated from an approved four-year high school or unless he has secured an equivalent certificate through the Department of Public Instruction at Harrisburg. This requirement of admission is really,higher than that of many colleges" which stipulate that they will admit students with fifteen units. It is possible to secure fifteen units at high schools that are not approved by the Department. In fact , it is possible to secure that many units in three years at some schools where the pupils are allowed to carry fiv e units a year. On account of such high standards of admission the general tone of this school should be even better than it was in the past.
