The state owes Ann Arbor al- most $90,000 in funds collected by the state and shared with local governmental units. And there is little likelihood that the city will be paid until the state gets( its financial prob- lems under control, City Adminis- trator Guy Larcom said this week, City Controller Lauren J. Jed- ele was told by the state auditor general's office that the state rec- ognizes the funds due as obliga- tions, but is attempting to estab- lish priorities for the payment of its most pressing obligations. Most of the money due from the state is an intangibles tax pay- ment of $75,462. It is a sizeable item in this year's city budget, Larcom said. The balance of the funds due is in refunds from motor-vehicle operators' and liquor licenses. "It is too bad the state's ina- bility to balance its own budget must be passed on to cities which are able, to budget for their own needs," Larcom said. Dial 5-629 Gable acts his age !

STARTS TODAY' AT THE CAMPUS I . American Education Week, which ends Saturday, gives Amer- icans a special. opportunity to learn what their schools and col-, leges are doing for them and for their children; United States Com- missioner of Education Lawrence G. Derthick said this week. He pointed out that President Dwight D. Eisenhower in his proc- lamation for American Education Week said, "Let us display to the world and to ourselves our pride in this primary instrument of democracy =- public education -- complemented by private educa- tion, which is supported by the, willing sacrifices of each citizen and which benefits all." The Commissioner said Ameri- can education has "come a long way since American Education Week was first observed in 1920." Enrollment Doubles School and college enrollments in that year totalled 24 million. Today there are 46 and one-half million, Derthick said. Of the total school and college enrollment in 1920, elementary school enrollment represented' 87.1 per cent, secondary school enroll- ment 10.4 per cent, and enrollment' in institutions of higher education 2.5 per cent. Elementary schools today enroll' 72.0 per cent, secondary schools 19.9 per cent, and colleges and uni- versities 8.1 per cent of the total school - college enrollment. Sec- ondary schools of today have about' four times as many students as the high schools of 1920. Colleges and universities today enroll six times the number of students at the col- lege-university level of 1920. More School Days When American Education Week was launched, children in public elementary and secondary schools went to school 162 days a year.' Today's school term length isj about 179 days. For each child in attendance at school in 1920 the annual expenditure was $64.00, whereas today's investment is about $460.

Today this value is about $900 per pupil enrolled. One-room schols in 1920 totalled $189,000. The lat- est estimate is 30,000. In 1920 there were abgout 1,000 universities, colleges, and profes- sional schools in the United States. These enrolled 598,000 students- 315,000 men, and 293,000 women. Today's nearly 2,000 institutions of higher education enroll 3,778,000 students - 2,493,000 men, and 1,285,000 women. Confer More Degrees The Nation's colleges and uni- versities in 1920 conferred 48,622 bachelor's and first-professional degrees, and 4,894 graduate de- grees. The latest Office of Educa- tion report on degrees granted (1957-58) shows 362,554 bachelor's and first-professional degrees con- ferred, and 74,425 graduate de- grees awarded. "But we must not rest on these evidences of growth and progress in the American educational sys- tem," Conmissioner Derthick said. ''We mustc constantly strive to identify educational problems and work together for the solution of these problems as educators and citizens dedicated to better schools and improved education." Commissioner Derthick added, "There is probably more public concern about our schools and in- stitutions of higher education to- day than ever before in our Na- tion's history. Reflects Society "This is a wholesome develop- ment," he said, "since education in a democracy like ours should be a true reflection of our society. It should mirror the desires of all citizens for lives of satisfac- tion and happiness in communi- ties that are prosperous and pro- gressive in a Nation that is strong and respected in the world of na- tions." The main theme of this year's American Education Week observ- ance, sponsored by the National Education Association, the Ameri- can Legion, the National Congress of Parents and Teachers, and the U. S. Office of Education, is "Praise and Appraise Your Schools." WESTMINSTER' RECORDS complete catalogue Reg. $4.98 NOW $2.98 each THE DISC SHOP 1210 S.
