TRAINING SCHOOL PRESENT PROGRAM Capt ivate College Audien ce With Clever Skits During Chapel Per iod on May 1; Audien ce Was Appreciative of Work Done , One of the most enjoyable chapel programs presented this year was given by the Kindergarten-Primary Department of the Benjamin Franklin Training School on May 1. The audience was appreciative of the splendid work of the teachers in charge of the program and especially pleased with the original performance. The circus idea originated in a reading lesson. One of the children read a story dealing with circus life. The pupils were very much interested and decided that they would like to know more about the subject. Under the skillful guidance of the teachers the woi'k progressed rapidly. With enthusiasm that was something to be marveled at the boys and girls struggled with their problems. The initiative of the youngsters was called for th and bore splendid results. All the dialogue of the performance was of t he children 's own conception. The posters were painted in the school and were highly commendable. All the work concerned with the proj ect was left in the hands of the pupils. The proj ect reached even the home. The parents were put to work designing costumes. The whole school contributed something to the success of the project. It even ext en ded i nt o a ll o ther lines o f t ho school work. It can easily be seen what an'advanced set in education a project of this sort is compared to the dull A, B, C's of former primary grade teaching. The 1931-1932 Handbook is nearly x'eady for the press. Tho committee has been busy for the past several weeks getting the material in shape. The members of the committee are : George Brcuckman , Edward DoVoe, Lois DeMott , Laura Kelley, Emily Landis, Carl Riggs and Miss Rachel Turner.

It seems the girls think that one only works for marks when an A , B, C, system of grading is used. They propose a pass or fail system. The University of Arizona will send its polo team on a barn-storming trip to the East this spring. It is reported that the university has a very fine aggregation of malletmen and that the venture will cost in the neighborhood of $8000. The St uden t Council of Purdue University has abolished the system of class officers. The duties of the class officers have been placed with various other university groups. The only officer who has been retained is t he Fresh m an class t reasurer w ho will now serve for fo ur years. According to the dean of Hunter College the modern college girl does not go to enough parties, and studies en tirely too much. IMPR OVEME NT S PENDIN G According to the plans which Dr. Haas outlined in ehapel last Monday morning wo may expect improvements in the physical plant of the College in the near future.
