The Board of Education tomor-
row will be asked by DR.. James
A. Cannon, physician member, to
authorize DR.. Joseph A. Murphy,
chief of school medical services, to
rewrite the course of instruction on
alcohol and narcotics for the senior
high schools. :
The course of instruction as 1t
has been prepared by the Depart
ment of Physical Education, he
says, tends to give the students the
impression that one drink of an
intoxicant will ruin their stomachs
and liver forever, and one cigarette
give them a duodenal ulcer
The course of instruction, along
with 10 other units of safety
anatomy, nutrition and other sub
iects, was submitted by the Depart
ment Of Physical Education at the
board meeting last, week and passed
by the board with, the reservation
that it be reviewed and modified If
necessary at the end of the year.
DR.. Cannon said that on thorough
reading of the alcohol and narcotics
units he would request that they
be rewritten at once instead of in
June. and by doctors rather than
by teachers in the department.
Insult to Intelligence"
The units on anatomy and phys
iology, he said, are so scientifically
sound that the students will re-
ceive information as thorough as
that of some medical courses. The
alcohol and narcotics units, how
ever. DR.. Cannon considers mis-
leading, and an insult to the in
telligence,"
Humans have been using alco-
hol and tobacco far years." he said
The students should be taught
that excessive use OF them is harm
full. not that any contact with them
Is fatal"
A course on alcohol and mar.
cotics that bends over backwards
to be moralistic rather than scien-
tific. the doctor contends, is dan
gerous. Students are apt to con-
oemn the entire physical education
program, he said, If they think
parts of 1t are silly"
A boy who has seen his own
father smo..e and drink in mod
Grafton without harmful effect will
recoil, he said, from instruction
which cites "the serious effects OF
use of alcohol The boys in
telligence will tell him that these
effects result from abusive use
not from the small amounts he has
seen his father take.
Chief among Dr. Gannon's obiec-
tions, to the course Is the omission
of the words excessive use% in
the charges against Intoxicating
liquors No mention is made, or
the other hand. he says, of its use
as stimulant for older people, fo1
injection into painful nerves, fol
"suspending" many types of medi.
cine to make them more palatable
for patients with arterial scelerosi.
and for reduction of body tempera-
) ture by external sponging

people, alcohol Is harmful.

Entire Warden Setup
Expected 10 Be Given
Test Friday Night
Month-Lone Drills
Expected to Be Reviewed
By Leaders Tonight

With a warden service review ex-
pected tonight on the results of the
first phase of the month long con-
troll center training exercises, plans
were to be made today for an overall
drill Friday which may mobilize
all the citys volunteer protective
forces.
Controller Herbert Friede said he
understood the Friday test would
call for the mobilization of all units
with the wardens patrolling their
beats as under actual air-raid con-
ditions. Written incidents, basis of
the reports to the city's seven con-
troll centers, would then be distrib-
uted at random to the patrolling
wardens.
Chief Air-Raid Warden William
j. Mileham said, however, that the
extent of participation of wardens
in the Friday test would not be de-
termined until he had consulted
late today with Col. Lemuel Bolles.
executive director of District civilian
defense.
Public Not Involved.
AS in the three previous tests,
each of which affected a different
third of the warden service, no
equipment will be dispatched to tha
scenes of the simulated incidents
and the public will not be involved.
Although Mr.. Friede reported
that the third test, held last night.
was definite improvement over
the earlier two, Mr.. Mileham said
ne expected thorough thrashing
out of the exercises at a meeting
OF deputy wardens tonight.
One of the main sources of criti-
cism expected to be aired by the
sc deputies was the failure of the
transportation unit to deliver all the
incidents scheduled for reporting
Mr.. Mileham said II areas of the
city, where hundreds of wardens
stayed on duty all evening, never
received the incidents.
Although minimized by Mr. Mile
ham, number of the wardens COM
planned about the impossible Incl
Gents-the location of theaters or
fire stations where there were no
such buildings.
Called Good Practice.
Mr.. Mileham said 1t was good
practice for the wardens to handle
reports on incidents which might
not affect their particular area since
it was always possible they might
be away from their own sectors in
an emergency and have to call in
a theater disaster.
At Control Center No. 3, however,
where dozen Of the rs incidents
reported were fictitious. 1t was de-
cided to put those aside and not
send them through the control sys-
tenn.
A member of the control center
staff called back the wardens who
had reported each Of the fictitious
incidents and, In one case, received

Mrs. Galloway
Makes Unusual
Record, Marion
Bars Are AIKEN
From Windows Of
Training School

WASHINGTON, d. CLAMP -
Three months after she had taken
charge of the National Training
School for Girls, Mrs Rachel Gal
loWay has proven her theory that
these girls are human and can be
treated as human beings and not as
hardened criminals as unfavorable
publicity in the past has branded
them.
When a riot occurred at the
school, then populated by white and
colored girls, with the majority be-
ing colored, neighbors and profess
Sional social workers threw up their
hands in holy horror that such a
thing should exist in the commune
ty.
The white girls were transferred
to another institution or paroled out
and the colOred girls given the en-
tire institution, which occupies q
commanding view in a select section
of the north west AT the same time,
a colored principal was named to
head the school in the person of
Mrs. Galloway.
One of her first innovations was
to move the girls from the dormi-
tories where they had barred win
dows and put them in the more con-
genial atmosphere of the dormi-
tories without bars.
This and other innovations follow
ed rapidly until today, with a regis
ter of some 40 girls, Mrs. Galloway
feels she can safely trust them into
the city on parole and to visit shows
such knowing that they will return.
These girls all have a high sense
OF honor" Mrs. Galloway said, land
l feel that treating them like hui
man beings is one of the reason for
1t. OF course, they are high strung
and will blow up in moment if
they feel they are being taken adj
vantage OF, but if there is one thing
| hate to see, it is one of these chill
dren unhappy. That is the cause of
most of their troubles"
Mrs. Galloway pointed out that
most OF the girls were being held
1or delinquency and sex offenses.
tnat their ages average around 20
years, although they looked young
er.
Having accomplished something
professional reformers thought i'm
possible, Mrs. Galloway is. due to
end her tenure of office at. the
school in March. However, pressure
Is being brought to bear to retain
ner III her present post where she
mas developed techniques which will
serve as models for other institu-
tons.

tions in Americas entire system of
