Trailer Camp Ordered
Closed by Health Officials
Melvin E. Stanley has been fined
$75 and must close his trailer camp

his camp was being operated without
a license and in violations of health
standards.

1 trailers off his property.

Plan Would Advance
high School Seniors
Returning yesterday from a Wash-
ington, D.C., meeting of the Educa-
bional Policies Commission, Dean J.
B. Edmonson of the University.
School of Education declared that
he Commission had given much of
its time to a thorough discussion and
recommendation that high school
seniors of scholastic ability be ad-
mitted to colleges and gain their
high school diplomas and one year
of university education at the same
time.
The Dean expressed himself in
favor of the plan, provided it were
worked out with the full cooperation
of both the high schools and the uni-
versities. And he added that New
England colleges, were definitely in
favor of the plan as the only means
of preserving the universities as they
are now known.
Other issues discussed at the meet-
ing were post-war education for
youth, an internationaldcommission
to deal with educational problems,
and the preparation of a report on
what high schools should teach their
students during wartime.
A major point made by the com-
mission was the power of education
as exemplified by Hitler. Though mis-
used for his own purposes, it has
proven to be one of the mainstays in
his hold on German youth. In the
opinion of the delegates to the meet-
ing, the right use of education could
vastly improve the intelligence of
America's youth without warping
their minds along strictly political
lines.
