A Five Year Curriculum
On page 1 of this issue is Dr, A. R, Bru-
bacher’s message to Myskania concerning
curriculum changes for a five year curri-
culum,
Tt can be readily scen that a survey of
this sort can be valuable onl
cooperation from the entire student body.
Necessarily, most of the questions can be
answered satisfactorily only by the seniors
because of their knowledge of college cour-
ses of the upperclass level. The seniors are
the only ones who can look back over their
past courses to determine whether those
studies were beneficial and sufficient to
them in aiding them to meet teaching diffi
culties,
In conducting the survey, Mys
seek to question and join in discu
students,
nia willl
ions with
A great part of the new five year
curriculum will depend upon criticism from
the student body between now and April.
By criticism is meant both the good and
the bad points of subject matter now being
used in the courses of the college. Special
emphasis is being placed on the wording
here to abolish misinterpretation. Subject
matter and not personality is tobe the bas
for judgiment

STATE COLLEGE NEWS, NOVEMBER 12, 1937
Appointment Bureau
Selection and Appointment of Teachers
Bulletin, 1932, No. 17
by W. S, Deffenbaugh and William H, Zeigel, Jr.
United States Government Printing Office
Washington, 115 pages
The purpose of the bulletin and its value to pros-
pective teachers is easily seen from these sentences
found in th first part of the book:
“Good teachers are a valuable asset to any school
system; poor teachers are a detriment. The latter are
expensive in that they require excessive amounts of
supervision and administration, frequently undo the
work of good teachers, are difficult to eliminate, and
often disturb the equilibrium and morale of the whole
teaching corps.”
The bulletin is mainly composed of statistics,
tables and explanations being offered for every phase
of the teaching system. The number of teachers em-
ployed, percentage of new teachers in schools, and
tables outlining the restrictions on married teachers
are well presented,
One of the most interesting sections of the bulle-
tin dealt with the discussion of the value of the ap-
plication photograph. A survey was conducted as to
the correlation of teaching ability and apparent teach-
ing ability as shown by a photograph. The findings
show that the coefficient of correlati 1 is as low as
—.08. The photograph is valuable, however, for ob-
taining a “general impression of the candidate."
As the title of the bulletin suggests, the greater
part of the book is devoted to the listing of methods
by which teachers are selected. Appointment by sup-
erintendents, competitive examinations, and board and
principal selection are the chief methods, Others are
variations of one or more of these plans,

dents are especially asked to acquaint themselves with
these books.
Youth for Peace
Commentstater.
Fraternity pledges seem to be enjoying Hell week
inordinately. In the commons, they paraded up and
down with unbounded enjoyment, cutting up capers,
advertising “unionized union suits,” and sitting on the
floor contentedly mutching on dog buiscuits while
joyously barking and whining in fine harmony.
We agree that to us onlookers and to the prod-
ding fraternity members, all this is comical and hum-
orous, But look at it from another side, Hazing
pledges evinces the childish and immature in us. Aft-
er all we are grown up; we should countenance more
serious purposes in life and leave the infantile prac-
ces behind. Hell week often ends in bodily injury
to some of the victimized people. A person with a dis-
located shinbone does not look back on the old Hell
week with pleasure. Moreover the hazing itself and
its concomitant emotional disturbance detracts from
| the work of the pledges, the fraternity: members and
the speetators. Worst of all, however, there is nothing
in logic. in common sense that warrants such a dem-
onstration, Nowhere can there be
reason for these inane exhibitions.

Experience Needed
Interesting Fathers
Well Delivered Lines
._—_ PLAYGOER.
Last Thursday evening the Ad-
"vanced Dramatics class continued in
its experimental vein, and the re-
sults, even if not always entirely suc-
cessful, were nevertheless interesting.
The first play of the evening had
some fine bits of acting, but its mood
of farce was not sustained through-
out, so we could not always tell
whether we were laughing with or
at the players. The opening scene
might have set the tempo for us,
but neither Mr, Platt nor Miss Hall
were sufficiently sure of themselves
to give us the cue, Mr. Platt did not
supply enough variety in voice or
gesture or movement to make the
scene the delightful one it missed
being. More experience is his chief
need,
The fathers were interesting and
for the most part convincing. Mr.
|Hart’s performance was at times
delightful, But, Mr, Hart,
even that gout real? It was
hard to believe when you jumped on
it so consistently. More variety
would have made Mr, Nordell’s part
well done instead of adequately aone.
Miss Hayford’s attempt is to be ap-
plauded. She was doing something
that had not been tried before. And
it was good fun. But more work
would have given the play the finish
i. sorely lacked
Note to props: The college outline
series is too familiar to our own aud-
iences to be mistaken for Romeo and
Juliet
Miss Jesse's play is ich a beau-
Uiful and moving play in itself that
our first impulse was to say, "won-
derful” and let it go at that. But
the actual performance was, to a
marked degree, very fine. Miss
Christer knows how to deliver lines,
and those of Peirot were competent-
ly handled, We felt, however, that
she might have done much more
with gesture, with pantomine, to
play the part to its fullness. Miss
Sullivan was charming and in char-
acter throughout, The shepherds
had some very powerful moments.

Fifty Students Enter
Ping Pong Tournament
The first round elimination of
the recently organized ping-pong
tournament, under the general
supervision of Joe Bosley, '39,
will start Monday with fifty men
making their bid for top honors,
Patsy Miranaa, Chairman of
Intra-mural council, has an-
nounced that this tournament
will terminate at the end of the
month. According to Miranda,
Intra-mural council expects the
ping-pong tournament to be
completed when scheduled and
not subjected to the fate of the
tennis, horseshoe, and golf tour-
naments begun earlier this fall.
Bosley has asked that tourna~
ment games be given preference
over other games played in the
Commons, “If tournament play-
ers who have previously signed
up for a match find the table in
use, they are requested to wait
until the game in progress 1s
completed before they begin
their match,"
