 PUTTING ON 4 SEWARD
 BROADCAST EACH WEEK

KFQD, broadcasting station at Anchorage, Alaska, in letter to the Seward Chamber of Commerce, announces that they intend to set aside an evening a week on their broadcastS for the town of Seward and that the station would like to have a number of Seward mer- chants represented in the weekly broadcaSts.
 As a further incentive, J P. Han non, of the station, announces that for each hour taken by Seward merchants, the station will donate 20 minutes each week. Thus if Seward merchants use three hours weekly, the station would donate an extra hour to the community and this would give a full evening. The extra hour could be used by the Seward Chamber for the commun- ity for whatever publicity was de- sired.
 According to KFQD, that station reaches the Westward unusually we'll with their new transmitter, and letters have been received by that station from listeners from all sections of Alaska reporting very strong signals and commenting on the popularity of the station.
 KFQD's new transmitter, just approved by the Federal Radio Commission, is positively the latest word in modern radio engineering and is now used for that stations daily broadcasts It is the abso- lute maximum of power allotted to Alaska by the commission.
 Signals from the station reach Wrangell, SkagWay and Juneau as we'll as to the Westward, Teller, Nome and Fairbanks with reports of letter perfect" and with good strength and fine quality How ever, the stations location, with reference to Seward appears to af- feet in some manner the Signal there at times.

Yale Divinity
 Reshapes Curriculum
Bringing It Closer to Present-Day Living Conditions
 Says Dean

Announcement of a revision of the curriculum of the Yale Divinity school was made by Dean Luther A. Weigle. An informal conference of faculty and students has been study ing the problems involved for the past two years and the revision fol- lows lines indicated in these confer ences.
 We are seeking to bring the cur r.culum closer to present-day living and to help students to see more clearly the relation which the stud ies of the divinity school sustain to the problems of the vocation which they plan to enter" Dean Weigle said. For this reason we have broken away from the old depart mental divisions of faculty and curses and have reshaped the cur riculum in terms of nine comprehen- sive fields of study. Each of these fields covers problems drawn from several of the traditional depart ments.
 We have sought to state the fields of study in terms generally intelli- gible and significant for present day life rather than in terms that have primarily historical connotations. The plan affords to juniors the op- pcrtunity of beginning their theo- logical course with two prehen- sive seminar and discussion courses, one of which will deal with Chris tianity and Contemporary Life the other with Christian Belief and Contemporary Thought Each of
The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-06-08

these seminars will engage the ser- vices of four men from the faculty They will provide an introduction to theological study quite different from the customary method of Elunging the student at once iato Biblical, linguistic, and historical studies without giving him an ad- equate understanding of the need for this material. We believe that by placing the present-day pfob- lems of Christian ethics and Chris tian theology before the student at tke outset of his work he will be stimulated to clearer thinking and tn more interested study throughout the whole of his course.
 "The divinity school undertakes to train men not only for the min istry of preaching and pastoral ser vice, but for missionary service, for work in religious education, for com munity service through religious agencies, for religious leadership in colleges and universities, and for teaching and research in religion. The new curriculum therefore con- tains no list of general rcquire- ments to be enforced upon all stu dents alike. It provides for six dis tinct vocational groups, and the re- quirements for graduation are deter mined for each of these groups in the light of the actual needs and lroblems of the students entering that particular vocation
 We are seeking to encourage stu dent initiative in study and to af-

ford ample opportunity f0f special. ized and intensive work, while not failing to give to the student an ad- eouate grasp of the various fields of
 theological study. We hope to pro- vide a type of professional training which is as rigorous as thax of tho graduate school while not as sharp ly specialized or as exclusively cef- tered upon research.
 This principle has led us to re- duce the normal schedule of a stu- dent to four courses and to abolish tie academic bookkeeping by which a degree could be secured by the addition of unit-courses. It has led us to emphasize the field of study embracing one or more years of work, headed toward | comprehen- sive examination. At the same time we have left it open to a student to take unit-courses in fields which lie aside from his major interest"
 Dean Weigle said that the new curriculum would include the field work which many students are do- ing. Eighty-six students are this year in charge of parishes in vari- ous communities surrounding New Haven, under the general supervi- sion of the department of field work. 1t will be possible for student in the divinity school to choose at the outset of his course between . three year curriculum without such field work under educational supervision or a four-year curriculum with field work of this type.
 "The new curriculum," Dean Wei gle said, provides framework for continued experimentation and for such revision from time to time as riay seem desirable. In particular, 1t affords to each vocational group in the divinity school, the freedom to develop it's curriclum as new needs and problems emerge"

United pteSS Stau NOfrcSpoHuchtJ
 London, June 8.-UP)--The pos sibility of a joint representation to the United States concerning the de- sirability of reducing the financial bugdens created by the World War was seen to-day as one result of the Anglo-German conversations al chequers over the weekend.
 An agreement which indirectly would lead toward collaboration of world powers in an effort at war debt reductions was reached at chequers, the United Press was reli- ably informed. It was expected that th, British government would con- municate the results of the conversa- tions to other powers, after which the desirability of making a joint representation to Washington would be considered.
 While no attempt was made at chequers to reach an agreement on Germanys reparations payments, It was expected that Great Britain would make some move to gain CO., operation among creditor and debtor nations Ito overcome the present economic depression"
 The foreign office issued a com munique concerning the converse tions among Dr Heinrich Bruening, the German chancellor, Dr Julius Curtius, his foreign minister, and Premier J. Ramsay Macdonald anc members of his cabinet. Arthur Hen derson, foreign secretary, and A. V. Alexander, first lord of the admiralty, were present.
 Considerable importance was at tached to the communique. although if did not disclose the exact nature or extent of the conversations. IL said:
 Both parties agreed that in add1- ton to efforts and measures of a national character. a revival of con- fidence and prosperity depended on international cooperation. In this spirit, both governments will en- deavor to deal with the present crisis and seek close collaboration with the other governments concerned
 The communique said the conver- sations laid special stress on the dlf- faculties in the existing position or Germany and her need of allevia- tion." =, The British called the attention of their guests to the worldwide char acter of the present depression and tits special influence on their coun- try"
 Hich importance was attached to the presence at chequers of Montagu Norman, head of the Bank of Eng land, as we'll as Sir Frederick Leith- ross, controller of the treasury.
