TEACHER SHORTAGE
TO FORCE CLOSING
OF MANY SCHOOLS

Denver (ILNS). A shortage of
teachers will force closing of "con-
siderable" number of schools in the
coming school year, especially in the
farming areas, DR.. John w. Stude-
baker, United States commissioner of
education, warned here. He said the
teacher shortage would reach fifty
thousand.
Addressing 5000 teachers, admin
istrators and school officials at the
eightieth annual National Education
Association convention, DR.. Stude-
baker said that the draft and high
wages in war industries have already
drawn away thousands of teachers.
He added that the shortage would
lower teaching standards unless con-
structive measures are taken to deal
with the situation.
'The Office of Education has been
active through the wartime commits
sion both in studying this problem and
in proposing measures for relief at
critical points," he added. Gone of
these critical points is the anticipated
shortage Of teachers of mathematics
and physics in the secondary schools
and colleges"
Even though the Army and Navy
had been urging a greater emphasis
on these subjects, the supply of we'll
trained mathematics and science
teachers was diminishing, he said, and
it might be necessary to use English
and Latin teachers in algebra, geom-
etry or physics classes next fall. A
plan for retaining these teachers to
handle mathematics and science sub
jects is to be put into effect immedi-
ately.
DR.. Studebaker asserted that
whether the war was long or short
one, the schools must continue to op-
crate effectively, but warned that to
accomplish this might be difficult since,
with increased federal taxes, attempts
may be made in various communities
to curtail school expenditures.
eve must all be vigilant to see that
necessary school expenditures and
supporting tax levies are not cut in
crippling attempts under the mask of
furthering the war effort" he said.

Joint Management-Labor Committees
Operating Effectively to Train
War Workers, McNutt Reports
Apprenticeship Committees Have Been Most Effective in
Shaping Policies for General Training Programs
All-round Workers Needed for War Work

Dor, reported the training of more
than 100000 war workers, which
helped solve $4,000 in-plant training
problems in war industries.
Immediate Expansion Asked
McNutt urged immediate expansion
of in-plant training programs. en-
creased production is paramount,
now," he said "All-round workers
are needed not only for supervisors
and foremen for the tremendously ex-
panded labor supply in war produc-
tion plants, but they are needed too
as lead, set-up and quartermen and
for installation, maintenance and re-
pair work.
Bona fide apprenticeship remains
the quickest and soundest way of pro-
ducing this kind of labor. Appren-
tees, for whom special selection on
the basis of qualifications and apti-
tudes is made, contribute to produc-
tion almost Immediately. AS they
gain in dexterity and knowledge, they
become increasingly valuable to the
work"

Farm ManpOwer Shortage
Looms; Urge Registration

Washington, d. c. Farmers are
faced with one of the greatest man
power shortages in history, agricul-
tural experts say. Still if we're to win
the war farmers must produce 100000
quarts of milk a minute; 54,500,000
pounds of pork a day; 453,000 pounds
of peanuts an hour, and 100000
pounds of soy bean oil an hour. This
is the reason why the United States
Employment Service is urging all un-
employed workers with farm expert
ence to register at their local public
employment office.

Washington, D. C. (ILNS) Joint
management-labor committees are do
ing effective work in pushing the
training programs for essential war
production workers, Paul " McNutt,
chairman of the War Manpower Com
mission, said here in reviewing ap-
premiership training results in the
last six months.
Joint committees, particularly ap-
premiership committees, which repre-
sent management and labor have been
most effective in shaping policies for
general training programs to be con-
Quoted in the plants" McNutt pointed
out
"The 1000 national, state and local
committees composed of some $500
employer and labor representatives
heretofore serving primarily for pur-
poses of developing sound apprentice
ship programs are now stressing the
installation of other forms of on-the-
job training, emphasizing them as a
supplement to apprenticeship. These
committees, down to each individual
member, have been largely responsible
for the success of the Apprenticeship
Section in effecting the training of
over half a million workers in war in
dustries.
Joint Groups Successful
"Creation of joint management-la-
Dor committees has been fundamen-
tai principle of the apprentice train
ing promotion of the federal govern
ment. Now during this emergency
this principle is particularly appli-
cable to other forms of required train
ing especially those which involve par
amount employer employe relations
factors such as seniority, dilution,
numbers, post war effects, hours of
work, wages and the like The re-
sponsibility for the proper training of
workers and the prevention of serious
disagreement on labor relations prob
lens in plants, falls squarely on the
shoulders of employers and workers.
Other agencies can only assist and
advise"
A six months progress report of
the Apprenticeship Section submitted

PEP HACKERS MAKE
 IDOL 8 TO 5 SHOT

Hartford, Aug. 28-The odds for any sports event are what you can get-that is truth older than the nipples on the Red Sea-but the general odds prevailing here now for the Willie Pep- Bobby Ivy bout at Bulkeley Stadium next Tuesday night are 8-5 in favor of Pep.
 No ring bout ever staged in Hart ford has brought so many wagers. Every man and his brother has made a wager running from a few cigars up to the long green stuff they stack in banks and such.
 The unbeaten record Pep has amassed undoubtedly is the reason for his being installed the favorite.
 Willie has yet to taste defeat in professional competition while Bob- by up to his second win over Jackie Callura was having indifferent suc- cess.
 Those who are stringing. along with Ivy, and many are, like the rugged Bobby because of his sturd- mess and his admittedly better punch.
 The odds then are 8-5 and those quoting figures will take 9-5, from which you can see there is varying opinion aS Bobby and Willie make ready for next weeks fracas.

PITCHER HOLBROW BAY PARKWAY ACE

The famous Bay Pathways of Brooklyn, N. Y, the F1atbush rep resentatives in the big metropoli- Jan semi-pro ranks, winners of 27 end losers of only ten games this season, will make their initial Con- necticut appearance at the Muni- cipal Stadium Sunday night when they clash with Fred Davis Wa terbury Brasscos under lights.
 Only last Sunday the Pathways defeated the crack Bushwicks for the fourth time this season large iy through the superb pitching of their lace" finger, Wally Holbrow, rated as the class of the ''met" circuit and said to be the high est paid hurler in the New York area outside of the major league teams.
 Holbrow has won 1T of the Park ways 27 victories and has lost only seven which stamps him as the peer of the semi-pro twirlers at the mo- ment. The Parkways have an all star lineup of former minor league and college stars and have yet to meet defeat on the road.
 Manager Davi will have his regu- lars all set to go against the Brook lyn club and is angling for chuck CT to augment his pitching staff who are sure to see plenty of serv- Ice over the week end both in the game at Kingston, N. r., Saturday night and the big affair at the Municipal Stadium Sunday night.

ASSAASSNA Tournament of Roses.
 But there was no team like the Southern California varsities of the early '30s, the Stanford teams of -34-35 or Clark Shaughnessy's T. toters of 40.
 Each team last season lost two games or more. Oregon State nosed out Washington and Washington State for titular honors. Stanford was fourth as the northern group, for once, dominated the league.
 California is the choice over Ore- gon State by 8 shade.
 Lon Stiner'S Beavers lost IS let termen, eight of them regulars, and three assistant coaches.
 Bob Dethman and Don Durdan leave backfield gap and Martin Chaves will be missed in the line. George Baine, a 207-pound veteran, is a whale of a tackle and there are few better wingmen than George Zellick. Joe Day and Choc Shelton are more than adequate at fullback. THIRTEEN SOPHOMORES

 California has 13 sophomores on the first two teams, and that is the tipoff. If they can play major league ball in their first year, the club will be hard to beat.
