Not the Half, Doctor

Denunciation OF over-emphasis
on athletics in schools and colleges
by Dr.. J. Henry HighSmith. State
education official, at the teachers
meeting in Raleigh Thursday night,
has found favorable reaction from
almost every section where we have
seen comment made. The doctor is
on the right road, but like so many
other highways, it is long and crook
ed and rough. and he will find, if
indeed he hasn't already done so,
that it is going to be just about as
hard to change current trends as to
alter the course OF the big river.
What we wish to say to Dr.. High
smith, however, is that. while we
are in thorough accord with what
he has said about over-emphaSiS,
he hasn't said the half, as to high
schools.
When it comes to eXtra-cllrricula
activities there are so many Of them
that it often seems students go to
school primarily to look after these
things and that getting an education
is a secondary matter. II has SEEM
ed that way for long time and is
all the while becoming more and
more so. With the clubs, the meet
ings, the music, the football, basket
ball, baseball, dances and the like,
and with the school children called
on to shoulder part of the burden
for every manner and sort of drive
that comes along, how can they be
expected to get the maximum in the
way Of an education?
Frequently students find they
have to go back at night FOR one
thing or another. in addition to what
has occurred between the end of
classes in the afternoon and The
time they can get home.
If DR.. HighSmItn knows OF d girls
basketball team that played i3
games III a season, he should delve d
little more deeply and sec how many
other sld3linCS UCrG are to distract
adolescent mn:as IRON the strictly

understand that to be.

FINNS CAPTURE
 2PARACHUTERS
Russians Had Dropped Suicide Corps Members
 Behind Finn Lines

Helsinki, Finland, Jan. ie-(UP)- Finnish troops have captured two Russians of the famous parachute suicide corps trained to land behind on enemy's lines from airplaneS, 1t was made known today.
 The Films ct an important garri- son point picked up radio signals which they found were coming from their vicinity. A patrol was sent out and 1t found two Russians, one cranking c portable wireless set while the other Wirelessed information of the Finnish positions.
 The Russians, and the parachutes by which they had landed, were cap- tured.
 It was understood that this was only one of c number of instances in which the Russains have used their parachute troops to land behind the Finnish lines. Russia developed this new military technique, by which men are landed behind on enemy's lines, to get information, to blow Up bridges and communications or even to fight.
 Related announcement was made that two Russian spies had been tried, sentenced, and executed De- cember IA. They were soldiers who, 1t was asserted, came to Finland De- cember 3 in civilian clothes, bringing c short wave wireless set and carry Ing revolvers. They were found as they tried to use the wireless set, 1t was said.
 For the fifth day, Russian airplaneS swept over southern Finland in air raids today, in the bitterest cold in 10 years-30 below zero. Hundreds of thousands of people huddled in freezing air raid shelters during air alarm periods in the towns affected.
 Films estimated that since Friday nearly 10000 bombs had been dropped on nearly 50 towns and vil- lages. They alleged that tho Russians had bombed some isolated houses and had machine gunned individu. als. Turku (Aabo), Viipuri, Hango and Koivisto Island suffered heavi- est. It was estimated by Films that 1000 bombs and more than 1000 heavy naval shells had struck Koiv. lsto Island, where are situated the heavy Finnish naval guns that serve aS c right-dank anchor for the Man nerheim defense line.
