lurch and before the passengers had
time to realize what was occurring the
bottom of the car was left in the air.
An entrance was effected through the
car doors by men on the outside and

eight months In the United States on leave
Of absence. and during that time will keep
in touch with the young Filipino students
who are in American institutions. DR..
Barrows will also confer with bureau Of
insular affairs officials concerning teachers
to be sent to the Philippines and will assist
in making appointments.
It is probable that some Of the young
Fflpinos sent here for four-year terms will
remain in this country another year to
complete advanced professional training.
Several of the young students who have
done exceptional work In medical schools
and other professional schools are espe-
cially anxious to obtain degrees, and as
that is essential to their professional stand
ing in the islands after their return 1t Is
likely that DR.. Barrows will recommend the
extension of the time of the young Fill
