IN THE NEWS

Of the press. and various patriotic
religious. veterans, and civic or
CARNATIONS.
Now what has brought about
this alarming condition:
What is the connection bctweef
revolutionary changes in our edu
cational system and revolutioni>t'
on the campus
We have seen the amazing
growth OF radical student organ
lxatiOus such a. the American
Youth Congress. the Young Com
munist League, the American stu
dent Union and the Student,
League for Industrial Democracy
What has happened To educa-
ton during the past decade while
we have been asleep at the
switch
II is simply this:
While we have been absorbed in
our own affairs small group of
radical educators captured much
of the machinery of education
with the yelled but apparent pur-
pose of transferring our demo
cratic society from the system of
private enterprise To the socialism
of the German Karl Marx.

lives of 100 millions of people.
Their methods and technique
were extremely subtle. and their

Communism
No, indeed.
Socialism,?
OF course not.
This was the new Goth century
streamlined model of democracy, -
said these frontier thinkers.
As everyone likes to he pro-
gressive, and everybody wants
democracy, little opposition de
Veloped.
The propaganda vehicle in this
plan is the new social science
course, which supplanted the ira
United States history,
and civics.
Textbooks were to be rewritten,
special material was to be care
fully selected to accomplish This
purpose of education"
Thus was Matched the scheme of
the radical educators to propagate
alien ideOlOgies through the edu-
cational systems of America.

C1pn Stevens. for all her skill no
what is supposed to be mans work is
no anti-feminist. She instructs women
in the art of sailing too, and insists
that plenty of them take TO the water
naturally and, with a little training,
handle the helm as well as a man.
Among Cap'n Stevens pupils are
great many professional men particu-
larly doctors and dentists. For a time
she wondered why it was that these
practitioners Of medicine had a yearn-

TO escape from their patients for a few
hours of much needed relaxation.
During a weekend voyage on Long

lady by the name of Gypsy. Although
the blood of half dozen breeds mingles
IN her veins, the people who took her
INTO their home never suspected that
back Of her gentle eyes there lay the
fevered brain of an incipient killer
Her role was to be the beloved COM
panion of a little girl-and she PLAYED
1t well so long as her young mistress
lavished all her affection upon the
pup. Then into the nursery another
came to live--a demure rag doll wear
ing star-covered pants
The little girl spent so much time
with the newcomer that gentle Gypsy
began TO feel that her nose was broken
as the saying goes. She felt aban-
doned- The green-eyed god of jealousy
took possession of her
For days, it is said. she waited for
a chance to get the interloper alone.
But something always interfered.
Sometimes the little girl took the
dumb and hated toy with her, and if
she didn't, she put it lovingly to bed

cover of her toy chest.
But, at last, the day came when
Gypsy could do something about her
fostering problem. The little girl went
out and left the doll lying on a divan.
Everybody else in the house went out,
too, and the dog and the doll had the
place all TO themselves.
AS the Japanese like 20 say. a good
picture is worth a million words. and
the photographs on this page tell their
own sordid story.
First the sly one lays a gentle paw
on the victim and seems to be saying.
They've gone out and left us alone:
how about a littlc romp?
In the next scene the romp is on. but
there is nothing about the mien Of the
murderous one TO indicate a threat Of
death and destruction

playful amiability has been ripped off

find an annoying unwillingness on the
part of her masculine pupils to take
instructions or orders from a skirted

says that l know my business and
they are eager TO learn as much OF 1t
as they can while they are aboard"
At first most of Cap'n Stevens

she arranged a series OF week-long
