TEAMING EYES AND EARS

DAVENPORT, IA.-The value
of teanling eyes and ears in edu-
cation IS receiving high recognitior
IN virtually every major university
and numerous smaller institutiona
of higher learning, as well as iS
pm bile and parochiaI schoah
throughout the nation. NJ
Research has disclosed that tbs
overwhelming majority Of peopls
are "eye minded"-that is, theg
learn better and faster when they
see the subject matter. Only a
comparatively few persons are "ear
minded"-that is, have the ability
to absorb and retain through Aeary
ing alone. qga. CAST
I But when sight and sound, al
eXemplifed by sound motion pieJ
lures, are combined, the learning
rate and retention value, are in
creased far beyond the orthodox
teaching methods. Hundreds of COLI

meter sound motion pictures and
equipment to help speed student
education, and in addition, many Of

Recently sentence which think is

well other minority groups read The test of

luton of many of our problems.
To begin with under democratic form of government
the majority has the ruling the right OPP
press the minority The minority the other hand has the
right protesbut not the right to place the privileges of
group before the rights of the majority Both sides have

the minority we can affect any general condition

BY ALICE EvERSMAN.

The largest audience of the Water
Gate season so far was held en-
thralled last night by the singing of
Dorothy Maynor, renowned Negro
soprano, who appeared as soloist
with the National Symphony. In
the best of voice she sang arias and
songs with superb artistry giving
several encores at the end. For this
opening concert of the second week
of the summer series. the first OF
the guest conductors, Saul CASTOR
took up the baton relinquished by
Hans Kinder at the Friday event.
Miss Maynor is one Of the few
singers who possess In abundance
the power Of reaching the heart OF
her listeners. When she sings there
flows from her own sensitive nature
so genuine an emotional feeling that
all artistic considerations are for
gotten and one lives the music with
her. This element Is more powerful
than the beauty Of her voice or the
skill and finesSe with which she uses
1t and is the acme Of greatness.
She is greater in the singing OF
simple songs than in the arias a.
illustrated in her delivery of
Dvorak's Songs My Mother Taught

which she sang unaccompanied. To

The cannons fire bits of glass, nails and stones.

Not single villager is to be found. And
new phase of warfare begins - subterranean
warfare. This is something hard to believe
unless you have seen it with your own eyes,
as have.
In the early days of the war the villagers
dug cellars under their houses to hide from
the invaders. The japanese found these easily
and rooted the people out. Neighbors in one
village connected each others cellars until
the whole village was warren of tunnels
But when the Japanese came again, they
surrounded the village and drove the peo-
pie to the surface with fire, smoke and
water
Then the villagers dug an amazing system
of tunnels linking hundreds of villages for
miles around, built on a scale that makes
New York's subway system seem like toy
railway by comparison. The more elaborate
of the tunnels are big enough to house the

system of brick tubes to a switchboard. As
the enemy column moves into the mine field,
the operator calmly pulls this or that string
on the switchboard, exploding mines like
lights in a pinball machine.
The villagers of late have grown even bold
er, haunting the Japaneses Wanted Bushido
spirit with anti-Japanese slogans on flags or
hung on scarecrows in the fields. When these
explode as the japanese attempt to pull them
down, the enemy thereafter swallows his
pride and ignores them. Overnight the slogans
multiply by the thousands, remain undis-
turbed though few are actually mined.
They Mime Everything
LITERALLY everything in sight is mined.
Road ruts are dug up and mines carefully
buried An old auto tire is rolled lightly over
the surface where the wheels of the vehicles
have been. After a few Japanese trucks are
blown up this way, Jap drivers thereafter
bump along on the ridges between the ruts.
Should the truck bog down, guerrilla snipers
suddenly appear, showering grenades to de-
molish truck and drivers.
When the Japanese crash through the mine
fields, they are met at the village gates by
blasts from wooden cannon. These cannon
are about 10 feet long, made of hardwood
logs with the followed barrels sometimes
lined with metal The outsides are tightly
wound with stolen Japanese telephone wire.

with food. fuel and water for an extended
siege
The Japanese discovered that the tunnels
ran in straight lines from one village to the
next. They dug deep circular trenches in the
fields outside village until they had laid
open connecting subway. They were thus
able to isolate one village from another and
subject it to a concentrated attack.
900 Villagers Trapped
AT Pei TAN village about 30 miles south
of Paoting on the Peiping- Hankow railway,
the Japanese decided to teach the North
China tunnel fighters lesson. Sectioning off
a half mile of exposed tunnel, they pumped
gas into both ends, asphyxiating 800 trapped
villagers.
Undaunted, the peasants devised new de-
signs. Tunnels were built zigzag, up and down
and switchback, connecting with independent,
subsidiary tunnel systems at different levels.
All entrances were provided with simple anti
gas devices. Further provision was made to
wall up and section off any portion of the
tunnel system entered or exposed by the
enemy.

traps Crawling through narrow tunnel

John Barth, engineer for the

the system used by the FPHA in
choosing sites for public housing
and pointed out to those present

lFPHA has under considerations
To pleas from the floor that the
housing be carried TO Inkster or
some other town and that Dear
Iborn did not need such housing,
Schermer said that this new houS-
ing was war housing and that it
had priority over any other con-
Isiderations. He said further that
certain other towns in the area had
carried well their responsibility in
the matter Of unrestricted housing
Schermer deplored the presence
'of many restrictive covenants
which make it impossible for Ne
gro war workers TO be adequately
housed in the Detroit area. We
are here with this proposition"
he said because the people upon
whom these restrictions operate.
are needed for war production"
The assembled group was made
up Of representatives from the two
factions that have been active in
the fight over unrestricted housing
in Dearborn. Some a those pres

are opposed 10 unrestricted hous-
