for teachers to work together in
their schools on problems relating
to the improvement of the educa-
tiOnal program. Many local school
administrators are not organizing
and carrying out such programs
for two reasons. In the first place
their administrative duties demand
most of their time and attention.;
and, in the second place, many
of them lack the training neces-
sary to carry such a program for
ward without some outside asSis-
tance. The university must share
with the State Department of Ed
ucation in providing that stim-
nlatiOn and assistance.

FUTURE OUTLOOK FOR
TEACHERS IMPROVING
Continued from FIRST page)

among teachers generally, there
has been an increase at the Uni
versity of Delaware in the num-
ber of persons preparing to teach
Our report in November, 1916,
stated that there were then 149
students preparing to teach. That
number has increased by new en-
rollments and transfers to the tea
Generalization program so that
we now estimate that, beginning in
September 1947, we will have ap-
proximately 100 preparing to
teach. This does not include grad
uate students which will number
about forty"
THE faculty of the School OF
Education has approved a new
program for the professional edu-
cation of teachers which empha-
sizes the understanding of the ma
ture of human growth and devel.
opment and the nature of COM
munity change. The plan provides
for no increase in the number O1
credit hours of education required
for graduation; in fact, the pro
gram provides for a small decrease
in the credit hours required fol-
elementary teachers. Beginning!
are being made to work out will
departments and divisions of Art
and Science some notifications o
the patterns of subject-patte
courses to be taken by person
preparing to teach"
Leaders in education agree tha
one of the causes of the low NOR
ale that now exists among teach
ers is that teachers in service ar

Artist Robbed
$4,000 Jewels

PEBBLE BEACH, Calf, Nov
l. W.D -Surrealist Galvadore
Dali drew color pictures for the
cops today, not to hang on the
police station wall but to aid
them in solving the burglary of
his cabin where thieves la S t
night stole 1900 worth of
jewelry and furs.
The sneak thieves who pried
open a side window of the &C.
centric painters cabin on the
grounds of Del Monte Lodge got
away with serpent and lizard
bracelets, brooches shaped like
cats, grapes, flies, and bees, his
wife's fur coats - everything
but a limp watch.
The excitable Dali, "devas-
tated at this %loss'', stayed up
most of the night sketching the
jewe1ry designs from memory
so the police could identify them
if and when they show up
through some "fence".
1t. Gene Trenner of tn
sheriff's office said that the
drawings would help a lot be-
cause the jewelry, most of it
unique pieces, would be easy to
identify.
Dali itemized the stolen arti-
cles today, fixing their total
value at $31, 200. He said they
included a 81, 1000 serpent brace
let, a $1,000 lapel pin shaped
like a cat and with a large
diamond, a $500 lizard bracelet,
an $500 brooch with three grapes
in a cluster, a $500 collection of
jeweled insects, 10 lapel pins
shaped like various bugs and
valued at 5000, an $500 gold
bracelet, a S., 900 brooch with
diamonds and rubies, a $4,000
spray of gold flowers, a $4,000
Chinese solid gold basket.

South Africa to place the ter

South Africa did not comply
with a previous appeal from the
1916 assembly.
The vote was IL to 10. Britain
was the only big power to op-
pose the move, with the United
States and Russia joining in sup
port.
Australia voted against the
resolution after deputy prime
Minister Herbert V. Evatt told
the delegates:
"This amounts to a censure on
a member government"
The ballot came after a Da-
nish amendment to water down
the proposal was accepted. The
modification struck out a one
year time limit for compliance
and left tn assembly merely
expressing "hope'' that South
Africa would submit the agree
ment by next fall.

Always anxious to be of as
