CHAPEL HILL.-A series OF
monthly police schools, drawing on
FBI, state, and local leaders for
instructors, and designed to reach
every officer in the state, will be
held here during the coming year
by the Institute of Government in
cooperation with the Federal Blu
reau of Investigation.
Albert Coates, director of the In
stitute, made announcement
here today. Final arrangements
have been completed, he said, and
the first school tentatively set for
October 1925. Similar seven-day
schools will follow each month
from November through May.
The Institute has held IL previ-
Gus police schools, dating back to
1880, but these were limited mainly
to local chiefs, department heads,
and instructors. This is the first
series ever designed to reach every
officer, and Governor Clyde Hoey
today termed it the most important
advance yet made in police train
ing in North Carolina.
The Police and Sheriffs' associ'
ations of the state, Coates said,
have already endorsed tentative
plans for the schools at their an
nual conventions recently, ane
urged every single member to at,
tend.
The officers of the state highway
patrol, the head of the state Blu
reau of Identification, and repre-
sentatives of the FBI and othe1
federal agencies have also joined
in pledging their support and CO
operation.
To Send Officers in Shifts

and city police; county sheriffs
