" z ft,,; t :x:f ;. : i ft? 3 lr _____t_____________________,I__________f____1 By FREDDI LOEWENBERG Yale University President A. Whitney Griswold, writing in the March 27 Saturday Review of Lit- erature; has charged that poor ele- mentary and secondary school ed- ucation is undermining the stan- dards of the nation's colleges. Telling of widespread illiteracy Yeats' Poetry To e Read Here Today Prof. Donald Pearce of the Eng- lish Department will read selec- tions from the poetry of William' Butler Yeats at 4:10 p.m. today in Aud. A, Angell Hall. Yeats is usually considered one of the best of modern poets, and his works have been studied by Prof. Pearce both here and in Yeats' native Ireland. Among Prof. Pearce's publish- ed works about Yeats P.re "Yeats as an Irish Senator" and "Yeats Last Plays: An Interpretation." This is the second in a series of reading-lectures by members of the English department which will continue with Prof. G. B. Harri- son: "Songs and Monologues" on April 29 and Prof. Arthur Carr: "A Reading of Light Verse" on May 13. SL Open Houses Open houses for candidates run- ning in the all-campus elections on Tuesday and Wednesday will be held today at the following houses: 5 p.m., Pi Beta Phi (Student Legislature candidates only); 6 p.m., Alpha Sigma Phi; 6:30 p.m., Delta Chi and Delta Upsilon. JOIN THE RED CROSS CAMPUS CAMPAIGN among college graduates and their want of capacity to acquire and apply intelligence, Pres. Griswold blamed the decline in the liberal arts as a force in education. * * * "THE MAIN trouble undoubted- ly lies with our primary and sec- ondary education and I am not sure how much of it could still be remedied by appropriate reforms in our undergraduate curriculum," the educator commented. On campus, Assistant Dean James H. Robertson of tpe lit- erary college agreed with the charges advocating a "long searching look into the opera- tion of secondary schools." The Dean pointed out that "training in vocational skills is part of the intellectual function," but there is a problem of "where intellectual learning ends and where social adjustment to life picks up." However, Iean Robertson point- ed out that there is no factual evi- dence to support Griswold's con- clusions that the quality of college students is significantly different than it was 10 years ago. * * * ACCORDING to Griswold, "All the best students are not going to college, with untold talent being wasted. This is the part of the price society pays for its imprac- tical evaluation of the liberal arts," he explained. Noting the shortage of teach- ers and school facilities, Gris- wold said that an improvement and expansion of the liberal arts training program for sec- ondary school teachers would help clear up the situation. Discussing the problem of size, Dean Robertson explained that the methods of teaching have to be devised just to keep abreast of in- creasing enrollments. "It isn't so much unwillingness as large size," he pointed out. "The liberal arts colleges have been a little smug and compla- cent," he continued. Convincing the student of the value of liberal arts so he will carry this outlook on after college, will save edu- cation in the long run, the dean concluded.
