To Train Teachers for
Utah Schools
WANTS FLOOR OF NEW GYM.
u,s Been Forced TO Turn Students
Away in Present cromped Quar-
ters Since the Holidays.

,c,n, the men Of the University OF Utah
lvaylng loudly for home for their physi-
,,l development, where under the charge
~ a medical director they can build up
,bslr Drawn along with their brain, now
,ones an appeal from tho training school
,or more ROOM II is asserted that with
,anaciy for ~ students the training
scsool has ll2 REGISTERED and has been
,o,reJ since the holidays 10 discourage
o,y more registrations. The training
s,boo is meant TO turn out teachers for
mo schools Of Utah, and state supt Mel
sor SAYS that he needs 400 new teachers
every year
AS the university training school exhibit
At Che st. Louis fair was early considered
IA be a feature Of the educational display
and was stated generally TO he OF great
excellence, there has siuce been a bigger
demand FOR registration IN mat branch
M thp university work with an THIS lts
capacty Is far below that required TO
mrn out the number Of teachers needed In
iho state,
Just how to meet the present difficulty
il "A problem which Prof Stewart If try
he 40 solve. and the only way that has
aupoalcd lO him has been to urge upon
t6e Iocislaure-a claim Tor an 0ppropria-
don for "a new budding AS There rs no
,1r,arrnt posdbnity OF securing this at
Rd present time he Is advocating joining
forces with the college men and women
,arb Of whom have appealed Tor a portion
Of The now gymnasium building, should
ID Doe granted and taking out one Moor
Tor training school classes
PRESIDENT FAvoRs MOVE.
President Kingsbury states that he be-
Nrvcg this ~ the only WHy 70 30 ahead at
present His view IL that the training
school Is TOO seriously hampcrod TO allow
u 10 remain IN It's present status, and
should tn appropriation be deemed posi-
M by the prosent Legislature, the train-
inr school must he included In the plans
of the building 20 be erected. Sometime
later perhaps when the university grows
In buildings the structure can be released
10 the mea for their physical develop
ment
GYM DAMAGES BUILDING.
Another element II lately coming up for
consideration, and that Is the imperative
need as expressed by men In the faculty,
i0r removing the present gymnasium from
lts quarters on the top floor Of the physl-
cal building II IS claimed that the build
ing WAS never built for u gymnasium, and
that the jumping around and pounding on
he floors ~ 40 husky men such as are
now working an hour each day up under
the roof Is not doing the structure any
good. II this state must continue indch-
nitcly they claim that II can only result
On permanent damage from the severe
strain and shaking 10 the upper lloor.
WANT GYM ALL TO THEMSELVES.
The men do not like the now phase In
affairs They have heen hoping for
gymnasium all to themselves, with n
medical director IN charge who could toll
them what work was most necessary 20
round out their physical growth. Their
first disappointment camo when the wo-
men secured a grant Of q floor and half
n the new building, for a social gathering
pace Now with another floor practlcal-
y conceded TO the training school, they
feel that with the powers that be and the
legislature they have hardly a good sized
la0k-n az The now building left.
