JUNEAU'S JACK RHODE
ONE OF CHOSEN FEW

Confirmation came this morning
from F. w. (Slim) Avery OF Nenana
that Jack Rhode, 14-year-old son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Clarence Rhode OF Ju-
neau, participated in the good for
tune shared by 80 other persons
when the ice went out on the Tan
ana River May 6 at Ala pm.
Jack was born May 6 at 4 pm
and was IA years old this year. That
made the combination.
Stories out of Fairbanks early this
week had a Rhode Jack CO. OF
Anchorage as one OF the winners.
But Avery said ne made the ticket
out as Jack Gail Rhode, Juneau.
The company involved is composed
of his parents and sister. Gail is
Mrs. Rhodes maiden name.
That makes two winners living in
Juneau-the other is the man writ
ing this little yarn-Archie E.
Campbell.
Later adviceS make the number
on the exact minute as 81. At first
only 20 were counted. The other
two include Mr.. and Mrs. M. D.
Heath of Kodiak, formerly OF Mt.
Vernon. Wash. Mrs. Heath says
she's going to take an automobile
tour of the nation, and her hus-
band promised to don a chauffeur's
uniform to do the driving.
A second woman, whose name got
lost in the shuttle yesterday, was
also named, but no address was
available

UNIVERSITY TRAINING BROUGHT TO THE ISLANDS
ONCE BEFORE this paper expressed the thought that
the conducting of summer school in the Virgin Islands by
New York University was a great step forward, and that every
possible opportunity should be taken of it. The workshop
Courses got under way on July 8, and will run to August IL.
Of particular significance is that fact that two local teachers
who qualified received scholarships. One of these teachers,
Mrs. Enid Hodge, a teacher at the Christiansted High School
won the University scholarship on selection of officials Of the
school itself. The other, Mrs. Beryl Armstrong, a teacher in
the Frederiksted schools received the Jane Winton Scholar
ship. Not only these two very capable teachers, but the IS
lands as well should be proud because of the selections made.
H UNIVERSITY Workshop Courses for the summer
can develop into a most vital force in the education Of these
Islands. Local formal education does not 90 beyond the high
school level, and any graduates who wish to study further
have to make the long flight to the mainland. In this day and
time, with standards going ever higher and higher, training
beyond the high school level is base requisite for many posi-
tons, which means that a goodly number are automatically
excluded. The University Workshop, if designed to offer reg
ular courses on the college level could perform an nestima-
BILE service to these Islands. Teachers in service and others
could take these courses for credits, and then plan to meet
resident requirements at the University in New York. But 90
ing further, it might even be possible to combine these sum-
lheI courses WIN extension WORK, peT1odlc examinations, and
the final residence, all leading to a degree. 1t does not require
much imagination to see that such a combination could work
wonders.
NEW YORK UNIVERSITY, one of the outstanding
schools of America, has done extensive work in the field Of
education, and its staff is particularly well prepared to con-
duct practically any type of program to meet the needs of
groups, and our needs here should form no particular prob
lem. Not being educators we naturally are in no position to
venture details, but it does seem within the bounds Of posi-
biity that a combination of summer work, extension courses
and residence work could lead to a degree in possibly six
years. This would answer the needs of many teachers who are
"a
