Chesapeake Crossing
Plans 10 Be Drawn
By Baltimore Firm
b. the Associated Press

OCEAN CITY, Md, Aug. 29.-Gov
Lane announced yesterday award OF
a contract to the J. E. Greiner Co. OF
Baltimore to prepare plans for re-
ceiving bids on the construction OF
a Chesapeake Bay crossing, whether
it be q bridge or tunnel.
The contract was awarded after
a meeting with the State Road Com
mission and marked the first con-
crete step toward achievement OF
the long-planned crossing between
Sandy Point and Kent Island.
The contract calls for the Greiner
company to make additional surveys
on study it made in 1898 when it
was engaged to develop a primary
bridge system which resulted in
construction of the Susquehanna
and Potomac River spans.
In addition to revising its data
on Chesapeake Bay bridge, the
Greiner company will receive from
the firm of Palmer g. Baker a re-
port on construction of tunnel
The roads commission then will
compare the two plans and decide
whether an underwater crossing OF
span is the more feasible from the
standpoint. of financing and main
tenance.
The bridge planners had esti.
mated it would cost $4,000, 900
which they intended to be self.
hquidating and based on tolls.
The War Department still has tc
approve application for permit tc
build the bridge. 1t was at Wal
Department hearing that tunnel
was proposed as an alternative
crossing.

'Moruund 7edcher Describes
|ResetveofBfitish Children

For example. in England, children
receive an examination at the age
of 10 to determine whether they
will enter a grammar school, equiv
alent to our junior senior high
school, or a technical or vocational
school.
Those passing the examination 60
to a grammar school, where they are
promoted automatically for five
years. Then they take school GER
tificate examination for the equiv
alent of our high school diploma.
Pupils About on Par.
Students passing this examination
may, if they wish, take one or two
years of advanced work after
which they take an examination for
higher school certificate. They
must have this certificate to enter
a university.
Despite the emphasis on academic
work at Pudsey, Miss Greaney found
the students about on a par with
those at Bethesda Chevy Chase
High.
outside the school, Miss Greaney
discovered that teachers social
position is not as high as 1t Is IN
this country.
Every one is on a more formal
footing" she said, land there is a
definite caste system, although 1t
seems to be breaking down. For in
stance, I never met any one beyond
the headmaster or principal in Pud-
sey and it was never suggested that
I meet the school superintendent"
Approximately 500 students at
Pudsey ranged in age from II to ID
years. The younger ones were in
terested in Hollywood, she recalled,
and asked if she had ever met a
movie star. The older. ones, between
Is and Is years, had nothing but
contempt" for American motion
pictures and thought the British
films were much superior, she said
Students Wear Uniforms.
Most of the students wear school
uniforms, she said. The girls wear
brown or blue sleeveless gabardine
dresses and white blouses and the
younger boys wear blue blazers and
short trousers. The older boys, she
added, wear their own suits. All wear
regulation raincoats.
After completing her year OF
teaching at Pudsey, Miss Greaney
attended a melting of the World
Organization of Teaching Profess
sions at Glowgow. She was a dele
gate from the Maryland Teachers
Association and the National Educa-
ton Association.
Although she prefers this country,
Miss Greaney would like to return
to England to study and teach.

In letters to other ministers In
the county, Mr.. Gusts, who Is chair

Of Social Education Committees In

Mr.. Gusts wrote: THE Use and
the control of atomic energy is a
problem in which the church has
particular concern. For whether
this power will be used as biess-
ing or whether. it will be so mis-
used ~ to mar and blackef1 oul

British students are much the same
as Americans.
Miss Greaney has just returned to
her Washington home at 400 Aspen
street NV. after spending year
at the British school under teacher
exchange policy sponsored by the
National Education Association.
Englishman Goes Home.
Her place in Bethesda-C Chevy
Chase High was taken by Roland
Purdy, an instructor at Pudsey, who
has returned to England.
While at Pudsey, she taught Eng
lish, ancient and United States his
tory and current events, and was the
first to introduce a discussion period
at the school.
1t took her students a few weeks
to warm up" to the discussion
method of teaching, she recalled, but
then they took to it enthusiastically
While admitting that her students
at the Montgomery County school
are less formal and polite than those
at Pudsey, Miss Greaney contendeo
that the former are "far more self
disciplined"
Birch Still in Use.
Physical punishment is still used
commonly in English schools as a
means of enforcing discipline" she
explained. I'm addition, the per-
sonal relationship between the
teacher and the students in this
country is not encouraged in Eng
land"
A fundamental difference in the
two educational systems, according
to Miss Greaney. Is the fact that in
England, they gear their education
for the top 10 per cent, scholastically
speaking. In this country, she said
education Is aimed at the average
child.
