To End Annual Session
Of Visual Institute Today
Keynoting the annual two-day ses-
sion of the Visual Instruction Insti-
tute, Dr. C. A. Fisher, director of the
Extension Service, yesterday ex-'
pressed the hope that visual education
would be used more frequently in the
University.
The cooperative filni library of
the Extension Service, he explained,
is growing rapidly, indicating an in-
crease in the interest in visual in-
struction.
Following Dr. Fisher's opening ad-
dress, Dr. J. A. Hollinger, director
of Science and Visualization in the
Pittsburgh Public Schools, declared
that in schools which make use of
visual methods the percentage of in-
accuracies among' pupils is less.
The Institute, which is being spon-
sored by the Bureau of Visual Edu-
cation and the Extension Service,
will continue today with a series of
five lectures, starting at 9:30 a.m.
in the Rackham Lecture Hall.
Among the lectures will be a talk
on "The Influence of Motion Pic-
tures on Attitudes," by Miss Georgia
Lightfoot of Denby High School, De-
troit, and on "Producing Films for
Public Relations Purposes," by W. G.
Hart, Bureau of Educational Re-
search, Ohio State University.
The Institute will close with a lun-
cheon at 12:15 p.m. in the Union.

By CHARLES THATCH~ER
Excitement among engineering fae-

just who the "lucky" faculty men
will be.

"Henry" is back at his job, and it's
a good thing, too, for Henry is the
little man in the animated poster dis-
played over the Engineering Arch,
advertising the final issue of the
Michigan Technic to go on sale Tues-
day.
Designed to play up the feature
article "Motion Study and Its Re-
lation to Machine Design" by Guy J.
Bates, master mechanic, Henry was

speech society's famous Tung Oil
Crown, annually awarded to the best
faculty impromptu speaker, will be

Mrs. Walterhouse admitted that thev
Board-not Haisley-had chosen the
present school location.
Much of the criticism of Haisley
seemed to center on his alleged "mod-
ernistic educational policies" which
supposedly have retarded the pro-
gress in reading of elementary school
children and have neglected the 1
high school student who does not
intend to enter college.
Mills Answers
These accusations were countered
by Glenn Mills, former Ann Arbor
High School teacher and now a mem-
ber of the University faculty, who
said in an interview yesterday that
"the charges of 'modernism' in Hais-
ley's education methods are without
basis. It is even doubtful if the na-
tional Progressive Education Asso-
ciation would recognize our school
system as 'progressive.'
"The actual reasons, judging from
the hesitancy of Board members to
answer pertinent questions, are like-
ly so trivial and personal that they
would be embarrassed to reveal them.
In my five years as a member of the
Ann Arbor High School faculty I
have never heard any word whatso
( ever against Haisley in regard to his
honesty, fairness or efficiency."
Mrs. Flora Ward, another trustee
who voted for the dismissal, explained
her position by saying that she repre-
sented an element of the Ann Arbor
population which opposed Haisley's
educational policies. A well-informed
source commented on this statement
by pointing out that Mrs. Ward re-
ceived only 444 votes in the last Board
election, indicating, he said, that she
was representing "at the very most
only a small minority of the Ann
Arbor citizenry."
Choice Of Teachers
Another critic oi° Haisley questioned
the Superintendent's choice of teach-
ers. A person high in education
circles answered this charge by cit-
ing examples of former staff mem-
bers who have since been called to
fill prominent positions throughout
the country. Among those the in-
