THE HITCH

Oh, would that the Bear and the
 Eagle were friends, And lastingly fond of each other, Were warmly devoted to harmony's
 ends, And looked on the world as
 brother. Then wrinkles would vanish and
 knots be united, Then days, so to speak, would be
 palmy, With hatred inferred with suspicion
 and pride, And weather political balmy. Ambition would shrivel, and finally
 die,
 With plans for expansion illegal. And never a thought of an eye-for-
 an-eye Inciting the Bear and the Eagle. With concord in force and with
 jealousy out, Short Ivan and Samuel 1anky Would really have something for
 5llOuLlIIB dpOubs A blend of the Russ and the Yankee. How glad will be when it's peaches
 and cream! But I have a thought and can't
 spike 1t: If we make the weather, the others
 will scream, "Too hot!" or Too coldl" or Don't
 like itl"

 Senatorial committeeman have been so busy looking into this and that thhat many of them have not been able to find time to be on the floor when important legislation has been up for vote. There's a grow. inc sentiment among the voters that they should stick to their first last first.

G.I. Eating Habits Carry On

There questioning the fact that the effect of Army training servcemen will be far reaching, not only with O. L Joes and Ji but in most instances the families will also feel the results One outstanding instance with foods
 While Americans undoubtedly the best fed people in the world, many lean toward starchy diets The for example consider meat potatoes and piece of pie adequate meal and regardless of income most would be tent with this dinner six nights out of seven-and we wouldn't have complained much during the war
 However Army diets stressed the importance of nutr onay balanced meals for physical tness and vegetables and fruits given their share of attention along with the meat and potatoes As result wives and mothers will longer have to coax the folk to eat their spinach and no longer will luscious salads be considered feminine foods

Second major opportunity for the
choir came three years ago when
the choir appeared in concert at the
Radio Institutes annual convention
at Ohio State university. Leading
radio executives arranged to pre-
sent the Boychoir in six-month
series of broadcasts.
Radio appearances and con-
certs brought the work Of the
choir to the attention Of music
lovers throughout the nation,
with subscriptions guaranteeing
future of the school beginning
to pour in. Two-thirds Of the
back salaries now have been
paid. Huffman, who had re-
ceived nothing for his labors for
the first five years, has started
to draw his well-earned wages.
The school, which started with
faith and a $4,000 budget, has
set its goal at $25,OOO next year.
Lack of housing and boarding IA
cilities for out-of-town applicants
has prevented many deserving boys
from taking advantage Of the
unique opportunities offered by the
school. To remedy this situation,
more than 100000 of a $150,000
quota has been raised in an inten-
sive building campaign.
Plan Major Tours.
For the past six years, the Boy
choir confined its choral activities
to Columbus and it's environs. Ex-
panding its activities, the choir con-
Quoted its first organized tour
through the East last spring.
In response to requests from par
ents in all parts of the country, the
Columbus Boychoir summer camp
at Chautauqua, N. Y, was estab-
lished to make the unique training
of the school available to boys from
other communities.
Supported at first by nothing but
an abounding faith, Columbus Boy
choir School today ranks as one Of
the nations major achievements in
the artistic and educational world.

choral training. Admission to the
school-then and now-had two
requisites, musical aptitude and the
possibility Of a good voice. Forty
eight boys attended the opening ses-
sion, the enrolment increasing con-
sistently to reach the present total
of 81.
A non-profit, INSTRUMENTATION
institution, the school relies on re-
turns from its own concerts and
public subscriptions for support.
Although the teachers in the ear
ly days of the struggling school
were given no assurance of salary,
they came anyway as result of
their faith in the genius of Huffman
and the conviction that their ideal
eventually would be realized.
Make Town Hall Debut.
In the third year of it's existence,
the unique, tuition-free organization
got its long-awaited opportunity.
Siegfried Hearst, representative of
the National Concerts and Artists
corporation, attended rehearsal of
the Boychoir in Columbus. Capti-
waited by the group, he advised a
Town Hall debut in New York. Ig-
noring the financial drain, the choir
went to New York to score it's first
outstanding success. Reviewers
were lavish in their praise.
Only disappointment following the
Town Hall debut was that the
anticipated request from N.C.A.C.
to manage the Boychoir failed to
materialize. Now, however, the
N.C.A.C. has full management of
the choir's affairs.

was conceived by Herbert Huffman,
musical director of the school, who
for several years had been minister
of music in Columbus church.
Founded on Faith.
When the school opened its doors
in September, 1910, it's chief assets
were Huffman's faith and the enthu-
siasm of Harry c. Marshall, head
master.
Although books, blackb0ards
and teachers salaries were
among the missing items, the
lack of these usual essentials in
the school was a minor factor.
The men and boys worked to-
gether for the development of
their ideal until their own en-
thusiasm began to pay divi-
dends.
In launching the unique education
al project, the founders termed it a
venture into choral training using
music as the means, not the end
motivation, not goal" The di-
rectors decided that choral train
ing held untold possibilities for the
educational and moral development
of each boy.
Actually, the choir had existed
two years prior to founding of the
school. The boys had rehearsed
after their own schools let out, but
time did not permit sufficient
personal contact between teacher
and boys.

The solution was the Columbus
Boychoir School of four grades,

riculum with emphasis placed on

Supt R. H. Violin Endeavors To Refute Charges Teachers
Democratic Rights Are Being Interferred With

| from among the other papers by the
board clerk, H. j. Hunt.
Superintendent Violin endeayored
to refute the several allegations in the
letter relating mainly to personnel
management and interference with
democratic rights of the teachers. On
several occasions he called upon the
high school principal E. A. Flottman
and his office assistant, Mrs. Ruth Nc
Donald to confirm his statements. The
cross-examination technique used by
Violin, and his apparent desire to
dominate the meeting, smacked of a
kangaroo court" view point in the
opinion of some observers.
Toward the close of the meeting a
still present was presented to the
board asking that public hearing be
arranged to consider matters per-
tanning to the resignation of several
teachers" The statement said that it
was drawn up and signed on the basis
of "the apparent need indicated at this
meeting"
After some discussion on the letter
from the MEA, committee of three
board members was, on motion, ap-
pointed by Chairman Fred Sundelius
to reply to the letter. Board members,
Mrs. Clifford Miller, Marshall Murray
and Don Treloar were appointed on
the committee. This action of the
board seemed to strike responsive
chord among the visitors, tending to
relieve the atmosphere of tension
which pervaded most of the long ses-
sion. One visitor stated that "the COM
mittee to reply to the MEA letter has
an opportunity to render real serv-
ice to the teachers and the interested
public, which may go long way to-
ward overcoming whatever difficulties
exist"
1t is understood that state and ma
tional education associations have
been advised of the difficulty and re-
quested to investigate.
1t is expected that labor organiza-
tons about the state will observe de-
velopments with concern in view of
the existence of local of the Ameri-
can Federation of Teachers in Flat
