purpose Of discussing with the state
board Of education the proposed re-
vision Of the state prescribed course
Of study for high schools The re-
CURED course OF study at present in

tiqaaied, inelastic and totally untitled
to meet the demands of the various
committees at this time. A new course
OF study was proposed by the state

under the laws OF the state, prepares

the varying needs Of different com
munties For this reason il was
practically unanimously opposed by
the school men OF the state.
The school men unanimously adop-
ted a resolution that three unfts OF
English be required of every high
school pupil for graduation; that a
unit Of American history and civies
be another and finally required unit
and that fifteen units the minimum
requirement for graduation This ac-
tion would leave local communities
with liberty to arrange The remaining
eleven units into courses that would
best suit their needs. The members
Of the state board present decidedly
opposed granting this liberty.

The meeting. on the whole, cannot
fail to accomplish something toward
the progress Of the schools of Nevada,
a. ID was evident that the body o.
principals and city superinfendents
was composed IN its entirety of ex.
eeptionaily able, progressive, liberal
up.to.date men. The conservatism Of
the state board Of education win pro.
vide a balance that will check or pre-
vent any possibility Of going too far
In the direction Of liberality in the
use OF free electives In the high
schools.
While not brought up in the meet,
ing, il was suggested by various mem
bers afterwards that the state board
Of education and the public schools
might be brought into closer touch by
some provision looking toward an en-
larged state board OF education the
additional members to be chosen from
among the public school men Of the

On Saturday. through the courtesy
Of the Reno Commercial club, the
principals and superintendents were
treated to an automobile ride about
the city and through the Immediately
surrounding country. That this trip
was thoroughly enjoyed and the cour.
tesy appreciated goes without saying.
