Prospect Of a Highway Without
Disfguring SignbOaras

The specifications for the new
highway between Chapel Hill
and Durham provide for an
extra-wide right of way. Ac-
cording to the official maps
posted in the court house in
HiIlsboro the width from Dur
ham to Harward's dairy, about
2 miles from Chapel Hill, is to
be $50 feet, and the width Of
the bypass section (from the
junction at the dairy, southwest
ward, across the Raleigh high
way, and on to a junction with
the Pittsboro highway near the
Morgan creek bridge) is to be
200 feet. Which means that the
plan for the new highway is to
be of the boulevard, or parkway,
type. This is good news indeed.
Let us all pray that the State
Highway Commission will en-
force strictly the law against
the erection of advertising
signs on the right of way. What
an improvement it will be to
have a highway between here
and Durham free from hideous
signboards such as those along
the present route!

ers at Teachers College, Colum-
bia. He says that Of more than
fifty of these courses, "fewer
than half a dozen are designed
to deepen a candidates acquaint-
ance with the substance of the
language and its literature, and
virtually all the rest are con-
cerned with the pedagogy rather
than the substance Of English. !"
Perhaps the bitterest censure
in the article is for the compul-
sion, brought about through the
enactment of "certiication"
laws, upon teachers to keep on
taking teacher-training courses,
summer after summer, as a con-
dition Of getting a higher GER
tificate and higher pay. Mr..
Lynd writes: Your schools are
in safe hands in at least one re-
spect-safe for the livelihoods
of huge faculties of education,
who spawn courses faster than
any teacher could take them in
"a dozen lives of summer-schooI
hopping"

Educational Bureaucracy

Because Chapel Hill is an edu-
cational center, where the theory
and practice of education on all
levels is being constantly studied
and talked about, the article,
"Quackery in the Pubic
Schools" in the March issue Of
the Atlantic, has a special in
terest for people here. / heard
lively comments upon it in a
cluster of University professors
one day this week, and ! am
told Of other gatherings in
which it has been the subject
Of discussion.
The author of the article is
Albert Lynd, who took his ALB.
and Am. at Harvard, studied in
Belgium, taught history at Stan
ford and Harvard, and served as
a member of the school board
in his home town in Massachu-
sets.
His main thesis is that in
thousands of schools throughout
the country the things that
ought to be regarded as the
sound basis of education, the
fundamentals, are being neglect
ed in the pursuit of vague OBJ
Jectives that are declared by the
apostles of the new pedagogy to
be socially useful"
THE superprofessionals who
determine the kind of education
to which your child must SUBJ
NIT and for which you must pay
taxes" writes Mr.. Lynd, ARE
the professors of education in
the larger universities an d
teachers colleges. These
boys in the educational back
room have traded on the apathy
or awe of the laymen ION school
boards) to build a tight educa-
tional bureaucracy, to which
every working teacher or ad-
ministrator must defer if he
dares dream Of advancement"
The institutions from whose
catalogues and prospectuses Mr..
Lynd quotes most literally, to
support his points, are the Teach
ers College of Columbia Univer-
sity (Which he calls 'the Vati-
can of the cult''), Boston Uni
versity, and the Bridgewater
State Teachers College in Mas
sachusetts.

Texas Jim Mitchell has an
extensive snake farm and ZOO
here in Sarasota where he trains
att the business of milking
rattlesnakes. Texas Jim has
show well worth seeing. He and
Mrs. Mitchell, in spite of quite
a few bites, which have left
badly SCARED and crooked
fingers on Mr.. Mitchell, milk
snakes every Thursday. They
have become so skilled that they
are able to get about half a tea
spoonful of the precious amber
colored milk from a medium
size rattler. It awes you to stand
ESQ close to death in 2 minutes
lif you should be bitten by one
of Texas Jim's African yipers.
He insists that he will let no
harm come to you and urges
you to stand up close while he
takes hold of the snake by the
nape of the neck with his bare
finger and thumb and opens the
snakes mouth with his left
forefinger to show you at close
range the poisonous fangs. He
then hangs the fangs over the
rim of a plain water glass and
applies enough pressure to cause
the snake to shoot out the poison
Through his hypodermic-needle-
like teeth.
THE snakes are butchered
the next day. Mitchell 'milks' a
snake only once. After this he
takes the hide and cans the
meat. Anyone desiring some
canned rattlesnake meat can
order it from Texas jim. They
say it is good.
THE main training ground
here is for fishermen and fisher
women, and they use it day and
night.
Judging by the interest peo-
pie here have in the speed of
dogs, | feel that we folks in
Chapel Hill are missing good
bet by not training the hounds
to run. With Chapel Hill the dog
heaven it is anyway, | believe
that some of our folks would
become excited If we had a
training track where dogs could
be coached to run. A dog track
coach might prove q fine addi-
tion to our athletic department.

gent in their opinion of which

A Job for the FBI

In calling on civilians and police officers
throughout the country to be watchful of spies,
sabotage and suspected subversive activities and
to report their suspicious promptly to the Federal
Bureau of Investigation, President Truman is
following pattern adopted in the early stages
of World War II.
Comparable requests to the people were made
then by President Roosevelt. Their purpose was
threefold. One was to designate the FBI as the
official clearing house for all such information
as distinguished from conditions in World War
when % Government agencies were gathering
such data Another was to alert citizens and
police officials to be on guard against the activi-
ties mentioned while third was to discourage
citizens from trying to dispose OF suspected
subversive acts themselves-efforts which in the
past war took form in organization of so-called
vigilantes in some localities
The Presidents request this week doubtless
will result in flood of information, much of it
useless into FBI offices all over the country But
If history repeats itself, it will also furnish tips
of great value to the FBI-sometimes in the
form of seemingly unrelated material which,
when pieced together with other information in
the FBTs possession, presents pattern. The
FBI telephone number is listed on Page One of
telephone directories in all cities where branch
Offices are located.

There was at one time in the history
Of mankind a perfect indifference to the
welfare of other living things.
Everybody ignored the creatures,
except as food, or other help to man
kind.
Thoughtlessly millions of birds and
animals were slaughtered. Many per-
sons honestly believed that it might be
a good thing to rid the earth of all other
forms Of life.
Through the centuries, however, always
there were few who found other living
creatures interesting. or helpful, and
always worth saving.
Today there are more Of these persons
than ever before.
They are bolstered in their belief and
work by the fact that it is now known
that too much interference with nature
will end by harming mankind.
Indiscriminate slaughter of hawks, owls
and snakes, for instance, will lead to
such an increase in the mouse popula-
ton that mans best interests will suffer.

Iwant to take this time to compliment
The Star on its splendid editorial ap-
pearing in the issue Of July 20, Foolish
and Selfish" For the good Of the people
themselves and, more important. the Ma
tion's welfare, 1t is my hope that the con-
structive suggestions will be needed, as
there can be no question that the
warning should be noted by all within
our economy, both buyers and sellers.
The responsibility rests with all of us
within the Nation to rightfully oppose
regimentation, and here is grand op-
portunity for the American people and
particularly American business to make
the cure themselves by their own actions.
On the eve of the Presidents message,
Senator Kenneth Wherry made a radio
address to independent business of this
Nation. He said:
This is the time when the overwhelm-
ing majority Of American businessmen,
whose patriotism rises above all thought
OF personal gain, can do big job for the
Nation by making it unpopular for the
small. unthinking minority to aggravate
