TEACHERS FAVOR
CREEK FOR BOYS
Faculty Members Oppose Substi-
tuition of Spanish Course at
High School.

Opinion is divided to-day over the
unexpected proposal to throw out the
courses in Greek at the Boys High
School The suggestion. sprung and
strongly advocated by James L. Key
at yesterdays Board of Education
meeting, aroused an immediate storm
of discussion. a few being willing to
take sides with him, but the majority
apparently preferring to consider the
proposition thrust upon them without
any warning before they committed
themselves.
Faculty members. for the most part,
appear in favor Of the retention of
the study
u am not at all in sympathy with
the agitation to take Greek out of
the course for boys" said Miss Jes-
sic Muse, of the Girls High School,
to-day.
Sees Use for Spanish.
1t is true that some vOcations will
be chosen by the young men in which
they will be able to use their own
knowledge Of Greek little, if any. II
any of them become identified with the
commercial life OF the countries of
South America. where there is an
ever widening field, they undoubted-
ly will find much more use for Span
ish than for Greek.
But because few happen to be in
no need of Greek it forms no reason
for depriving the others Of the in
valuable mental training and the
knowledge that is furnished by the
study"
Slaton Asked New Study.
Mr. Keys remarks followed a rec
of Superintendent Sla-
ton that Spanish be taught in the bust
ness department of the Boys High
School
Spanish may be all right" said
Mr.. Key, springing to his feet. but
what about the nonsense of teaching
such a dead and useless language as
Greek? A poor boy goes to school
to learn something by which he may
earn a living. He wastes his strength
and time and money trying to learn
something that will be about as much
use 10 him as a toothbrush to
rooster"
