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.

What Other Colleges

Barnard College for women is at
present agitating a movement for
revision of their grading system. 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

On Thursday , April 30, the Men 's

High School students in their auditorium with a delightful program of
vocal music under the direction of
Miss Moore. The Glee Club sang six
numbers. The features on the program were solos by "Hank" Warman
and several numbers by the Campus
Crooners—Letterman , Parker and
Warman. The pleasure with which
these were received can be attested
by the % fact that double encores had
to be given each time.
In a short talk after the concert,
Professor A. M. Hinkel , Principal of
the High School, spoke of the deep
interest tha t the people of Berwick
have in our College and expressed

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.

What Other Colleges
Are Doing
— mi ^ i lj a
Barnard College for women is at
present agitating a movement for
revision of their grading system. 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

According to the dean of Hunter
