Modern Trends
In Education
Are Discussed
University High School
Teacher, Dr. II. Lui,
Lecture To Educators
"State and National Trends in Ed-
ucatioA," a series of lectures spon-
sored by the education school, swung
into its third week with talks by Fred
G. Walcott, acting head of the Uni-
versity High School English depart-
ment, and Dr. Bangnee A. Liu, of the
China Institute, in the University
High School 4uditorium.
Speaking on "China In American
Schools," Dr. Viu told his audience
yesterday that what started as the
China incident is now "this global
war ,,
The Chinese and Americans, who
are aiding each other in battle, he
continued, can do the same cultur-
ally after the war. He said that the
present study of the Far East in
American schools is inadequate to
bring this about.
Dr. Liu declared that'America must
choose between becoming the "mas-
ter of civilization" or again renoune-
ing leadership in world affairs. "My
conception of citizenship is being a
world citizen--a worthy member of
the human race. I want to see the
future world built on a foundation
of broad, far-sighted education which
will prepare our children fqr world
citizenship."
Walcott spoke Monday on "Popu-
lar Illusions Affecting the Teaching
of English." -
"Education faces undreamed-of
opportunities in the development of
both child welfare and the demo-
cratic way of life when it leans to
capitalize the possibilities for the
growth inherent in the interests of
children," he said.
Drawing on his experiences, Wal-
cott pointed out that .achievement
ltvels do not have to suffer while
gains in maturity and in socializa-
tion are being made.

The Rivals' To Ring Up Curtain
On Repertory Season Tonight

Absolute, in this tale resplendent
with romantic triangles and 18th
century atmosphere. Opposite Ste-
phenson, in the role of the extrava-
gant yet simple Lydia Lanquish, is
Helen Rhodes, heroine of "Under the
Gaslight."I
Philip Swander, '44, entering cam-
pus dramatics in "Gaslight," will
portray Faulkland, personification of
perversity, who never loses an oppor-
tunity of making himself and others
miserable. Richard Stewart, '44, full-
voiced newcomer to the Repertory
stage, will enact the meddling, dluel-
ing Sir Lucius.
Also cast in the show are Eleanor
Hughes as Julia; Judy Fletcher, '43,
as L'ucy; Merle Webb, '42, as Thom-
as; Richard Strain, '42, as Fag, and
John Hathaway, as the Boy.
With the technical end of produc-
tion in the hands of guest instruc-
tors, picked from a field of theatrical
professionals, "The Rivals" and sub-
sequent plays 'of the season promise
to be the most successful in Reper-
tory history. The elaborate costumes
of the opener, "The Rivals," will be
created by a famed New York cos-
tumiere and author of numerous
books on the art of costuming, Lucy;
Barton. Sets will be done by Howard'

sponsible for the sets in "The Little
Foxes, "The Corn Is Green," "The

New Engine
Will Improve
Sub-Chasers
WASHINGTON, July 7. -(P-
Foreshadowing an early start of a
mighty new phase of anti-submarine
warfare in American waters. the
Navy announced today the invention,
of a lightweight, high-speed Diesel
engine made especially for use in sub
chasers and already in mass produc-
tion.
The new power plant, along with
a new variable pitch propellor, was
understood to be ready for installa-
tion in quantities of small craft soon
to join the fight against the U-
boats and authorities declared that
these would be craft of superior per-
formance.
"This is the best engine any sub,
chaser ever had," one expert de-
clared.
Developed as the result of more
than 20 years' experimentation un-
dertaken after the last war, the new
engine has four banks of four cylin-
ders each, centered around a vertical
crankshaft. Because of its unusual
shape it has come to be known to the
Navy as "the pancake."
Built as a unit with the engine is
a new type of reversible propeller
which eliminates the need for com-

MI HIGAN
MJILITAIRY
gMEN.
With the news pouring in from
enlistment centers and training
camps throughout the nation con-
cerning the activities and promotions
of former Michigan students, comes
word from soldiers who commenced
their military training in the campus
unit of the ROTC.
With one accord, these letters from
former ROTC cadets note the fine
comparison with which their mili-
tary training which they received at
the University makes with officers
from other schools throughout the
country. Several officers who gradu-
ated from the University in the
spring are now in camps receiving
additional training.
At Fort Murphy. Fla., Second Lieut.
Theodore Borst, '42E, is serving at
the Air Raid Warning Center. 'Borst
was member of the Signal Corps of
the ROTC.
Second Lieut. William W. Fischer,
'42E, Ann Arbor, is in training in the
Signal Corps at Fort Monmouth, N. J.
Fischer is serving under Lt.-Col. Wal-
lington, who, as a captain in 1937,
served as the Signal Corps instructor
at the University.

Education Students Commence Studies
Of Adolescents At 'U' Fresh Air Camp

CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING

Approximately sixty students from
the Bchool of Education workshops
were guests of the University Fresh
Air Camp Thursday evening as they
attended the first of a series of clin-
ical studies on individual adjustment
prQblems of adolescent boys.
Conducted by Dr. Fritz Redl of the
School of Education and Dr. Lester
Hqwitt of the sociology department,
the clinics form an integral part of
the unique educational setup at the
Patterson Lake camp.
In addition to the services provided
for approximately 250 boys each
summer, the camp serves as a labora-
tory for study, research and prac-
tical experience in the fields of men-
tal hygiene, guidance, group work
and sociology.
* * *
The 22nd annual camp opening
took place last Monday after a week

of intensive training for all the stu-
dent counselors, some 21 of them.
The entire staff spent the week pre-
paring cabins, launching boats, map-
ping recreation plans for the boys,
and holding informal discussions on
the camp counselor's responsibilities.
* * *
New to the Fresh Air Camp this
year is the large number of woman
counselors. Any doubts of their com-
petence rapidly vanished as they
took holld itl fine style.
* * *
Greatest recipients of the good
things of life, however, were the boys.
They swam, fished, played games,
treasure-hunted, ate, sang, ran and
slept to their hearts' delight. Edu-
cational opportunities were largely
disregarded in the opening week as
the boys adjusted themselves to, the
new conditions of group living.
