FAGE TWO THE MICHIGAN DAILY SATURDAY, MAY 17, 1941 U I U U Visualization Of Instruction Is Advocated, Motion Picture Discussion 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.

To Advertise Edition "Henry" is back at his job again! "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 a masterpiece of engineering ingen- uity - until he had an acute attack of slipping belts and had to be sent to the Technic's health service for. repairs.

Civil Engineers To Student-Faculty choice of the junior high school site II and that he had "protected" Ray.k 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.
