Prof. C. Woody Lectures
At Educational.Forum;
Guidance Group To Meet

Army Tests Glider Attack Methods

Teachers To Hold Special
Meetings On Guidance
Problems In Education
Declaring that although much un-
easiness and inconvenience is ac-
companying the adjustment of the
elementary schools to the war effort,
Prof. Clifford Woody, of the educa-
tion school, claimed that the struggle
is providing a period for testing the
worthwhileness of the things being
done in the schools, in yesterday's
session of the Annual Summer Edu-
cation Conference.
He said it is difficum to determine
the dangers facing the various parts
of the country. On the coast the
school officials are taking elaborate
steps for the protection and welfare
of the students. But in the central
areas which are safe from attack the
student's activities are confined to
such things as the collection of rub-
ber, paper and bones.
Central Danger Areas
However, there are some central
areas where there is danger of at-
tack, and in these areas the schools
are making much more important
changes. In such places the school
buillings have becpame emergency
centers, and air-raid warnings and
other safety drills are being held.
In some schools in these areas, the
children are given identification tags
and have been fingerprinted, he
stated.
A great many changes have come
into the curricula of the schools, Dr.
Woody said. First-aid courses have
been added in a number of places.
Also, geography and Latin-American
affairs are being stressed more and
more.
In some schools, he said, children
are being taught the economy of pur-
chasirg food and rules relating to
adequate and healthful diets. A
number of schools are also teaching
their pupils how to mend their own
clothes.
Although these changes are being
made for the immediate' purpose of
adjustment to the war effort, they
may prove to be worthy of perma-
nent retention in the school systems.
The exigencies of the war effort
are placing greater responsibilities
on teachers than they have had be-
fore, Dr. Woody declared. They ire
engaged in preparing children in
many phases of defense and are ex-
panding their activities from those
of merely teaching to the protection
of children from possible air raids.
