Special Program To Aid
Persons In Reentering
Teaching Professions
Special part-time courses to aid
persons entering or re-entering the1
teaching profession to fill the war-
created public school personnel short-t
age were announced today by Dean1
James B. Edmonson of the School of
Education. '
In announcing the University's
regular fall and spring program of ,
part-time courses, Dean Edmonson1
pointed out that special emphasis is{
being placed on late afternoon anda
Saturday classes this year because
of the urgent need for replacements
in Michigan schools. About 60 part-
time courses in a variety of educa-
tional fields are being offered.
3,000 Are Replacements
Already approximately 3,000 teach-1
ers in the State's public school sys-
tem are replacements for those called
into military or wartime industrial
service. This means that nearly 10
per cent of the State's public school
teachers are teaching with war
emergency certificates, and it was
estimated. at- a recent conference. on
educational- policy that another 1,500
may be needed before the year is
over.
In addition to the late afternoon
and Saturday classes, the School of
Eduoation is offering two other types
of part-time courses, one given in
the Detroit Graduate Study Center,
the other a field course given in vari-
ous selected cities throughout the
state.
Studentssdesiring to take part-
time courses in the late afternoon
and on Saturday should enroll for
these in the fall term during the
regular registration period according
to the printed Registration Schedule.
The part-time courses offered in Ann
Arbor carry two hours of credit each
and are available without extra fees
t qualified students regularly en-
rolled in "the University.
Will Help Former Teachers
The various part-time courses,
especially designed to help former
teachers returning to the profession
and those entering for the first time
during the war emergency, empha-
size the importance of conserving
the time and effort of teachers in the
War period with the most effective
techniques of teaching.
Especial consideration will be
given to effective Ways of assisting
pupils to adjust to the strains of war
and the uses in instruction of new
materials relating to war demands.

Dr. Pillsbury
Psychologist Honored As
Professor Emeritus;

A distinguished psychologist, well-
known throughout the country as
well as a promoter of psychology at
the University, Dr. Walter B. Pills-
bury received the degree of profes-
sor-emeritus of psychology conferred
on him by the University last Satur-
day.
At the same time Dr. Pillsbury be-
came eligible for retirement, al-
though the University regents had
already approved it on the occasion of
his 70th birthday last July 21.
Came Here In 1897.
Dr. Pillsbury's work at the Uni-
versity began in 1897 when he came
as an instructor. At that time psy-
chology was not a separate depart-
ment but was part of the philosophy
department. When psychology gain-
ed its own in 1929, Dr. Pillsbury was
chosen as chairman of the depart
ment and has headed its develop-
ment ever since.
Numerous organizations have felt
the influence of Dr. Pillsbury's lead-
ership. He has been president of the
American Psychological Association
and the Western Philosophy Associa-
tion, and a vice-president and chair-
man of the American Association for
the Advancement of Science. In ad-
dition, he is a member of the Na-
tional Research Council, Linguistic
Society of America and National
Academy of Science.
Nebraska Graduate
Dr. Pillsbury received his A.B. de-
gree from the University of Nebraska
in 1892,.his Ph.D. from Cornell Uni-
versity in 1896 and his LL.D. from
the University of Nebraska in 1934.
Before coming to Michigan as an
instructor, Dr. Pillsbury was an as-
sistant in psychology at Cornell for
two years. In 1900 he became an as-
sistant professor here and five years
later a junior professor of psychol-
ogy and director of the psychology
laboratory. He has been a full pro-
fessor since 1910.
In addition to the many books he
has written, Dr. Pillsbury has con-
tributed frequently to the Scientific
Monthly and to American journals
and reviews of psychology and phi-
losophy.
British Reportv
Will Be Studied
In Radio Course
Wartime Radio Programs, a new
course in the speech department, will
give students an unusual opportunity
to study radio as a military weapon
by examining confidential reports o1
the British Intelligence Service.
Prof. Waldo M. Abbot, who will
offer the course as Speech 157, has
undertaken considerable investiga-
tion to prepare the course.
"I have been very fortunate," state
Professor Abbot, "in having had ac-
cess to the confidential research
made by the British Intelligence Ser-
vice (1940, 1941, 1942) on the use o1
radio by the Germans in advance o1
their military moves."
Censorship Study
The aspect of radio as a military
weapon will be studied furthe
through reports of censorship prac-
tices in the United States.
In a second aspect Speech 157 wil
deal with radio as a public relation
medium. Students will be given prac-
tical experience in writing, produc-
ing and presenting programs aftei
studying scripts and transcriptions
The British Broadcasting Corpora
tion has offered to provide Professor
Abbot with transcriptions of theil
radio programs for class criticism
and radio programs from Navy Train
ing Stations will be examined. The
United States Office of the Coordina-
tor of Inter-American Affairs ha.
guaranteed to furnish scripts to be
produced by University students ovei
the facilities of WJR, Detroit.
U.S. Backs Course
During the past month Professor
Abbot has been preparing the con-
tent of this course, discussing it with
men closely connected with radio
work. He has consulted Byron Price
Chief of the United States Radic
Censors Office; W. P. Lewis, Chief o
the Radio Division, Office of War In-
formation; Edward Kirby, Public Re-
lations Division, 'United States De-
partment of War; and Vincent Calla-
han, Radio Division, United State;

bot are: Jack Hartley, Radio Liason

time by Canadian planes, were cred-
ited by the Navy with setting an en-
emy ship afire, destroying seven
planes and killing or wounding about
150 Japanese in a low level attack n
enemy installations at Kiska Island.
A strong force of Army bombers
and pursuit planes, joined by aircraft
of the Royal Canadian Air. Force,
carried out the attack on enemy shore
installations and ships at Kiska last
Friday. strafing two submarines, de-
stroying six fighter seaplanes on the
water, and shooting down a seventh.
Two transports, or cargo ships,
were found in the harbor, said a
Navy communique, and direct bomub
hits started fires on one of them.
When last seen, the vessel, listing
badly, had been beached.'
The attack was the second aerial'
sweep against Kiska in as many days.
A smaller force of Army heavy
bombers, said the communique, had
attacked the enemy installations
Thursday, but apparently this attack
was made from a high altitude, since
the results were not ob:;erved.
The direct hits on the transport
brought to 33 the total of Japanese
vessels sunk or damaged by combined
Army-Navy operations in the Aleu-
tians since the islands became an
active warzone with the enemy raid
on Dutch Harbor June 3, the day be-
fore the Battle of Midway started.
Combined Forces Strike
Two weeks ago today a large force
of Army heavy bombers, 'accompanied
rby pursuit planes, carried out a sim-
ilar low-level attack a, Kiska.
