Durother Receives 1hreaf

NEW YORK, Oct. 11-tR-An of fer of $15,000 if the Giants would manage to lose the next three games" was received in letter by Manager Leo Durocher accord ing to his actress wife, Laraine Day.
 The letter, written on stationery of the Strand Hotel of Atlantic City, N. J., and postmarked Oct. 6 at Fresh Meadow, N. Y, on Long Is- land, also contained a threat, Miss Day said.
 It was turned over to baseball Commissioner Ford Prick before yesterdays final game of the World Series at the Yankee Stadium, in which the Giants were beaten by the New York Yankees.
 'Leo's immediate reaction was that the letter was the work of a crank" Miss Day said. But he worried all Tuesday night and I finally persuaded him to turn it over to MT. Prick"
 The actress said Leo's chief worry was over the threat to herself and the possibility harm might come to their six-year-o adopted son, Chris.

 In 1 1th Round

PITTSBURGH, Oct. II R - Ezzard Charles is hot on the come back trail today after knocking out Rex Layne in the same ring where he lost his heavyweight title to Jersey Joe Walcott.
 Charles stopped the 23-year-old Salt Like City, Utah. better in 2:32 of the 11th round last night in an interesting but unimpressive bout before a disappointing turnout of 6,257 fans at Forbes Field

 Heavier by six pounds than for his last title fight, the former champion was far ahead by points when a hard right to the chin in the 11th dropped Layne for nine count and the referee stopped it.
 Although Charles gave Layne a terrific beating, his handlers agreed the former champion didn't look particularly sharp.
 "He missed too many punches commented trainer Ray Arcel.

Two Championship Teams At End of World Series; Both Have Celebrations

NEW YORK, Oct. 11-iR-For the first time in history, there were two championship teams when tho World Series ended.
 The Yankees were champs be- cause they defeated the Giants, { to 3, yesterday to take the series four games to two.
 The Giants were champs be- cause their manager, Leo Durocher said so.
 You are champions, every one of you, and you fought 'em all right down to the wire" Leo told his boys after they had dropped yes terday's deciding game to the Yan- kees.
 Of course, the Giants dressing room was hardly the gayest place in the world But, yet, it wasn't the saddest.
 The general feeling seemed to be: oh, well, we did our best and, after all, we did win our share of the big games-and these were the Yankees.
 Across the hall. in the Yankees dressing room, they were toasting Hank Bauer, the man of the hour.
 It was his triple and his game saving catch in the ninth inning that brought the Tanks their third straight World Series victory for Casey Stengel.
 "We did itl We did it! We did it." he kept yelling.
 Durocher, trying hard to play the part of the good loser, said I'd play the series the same way. If we had another chance I'd do the same things"
 Someone asked him about next year.
 T had enough trouble thinking about 1949, 1850 and 1851" Leo said.
 And, finally, someone else asked Stengel who he was going to pitch tomorrow.
 Casey just grinned.

realizing this aim is lack of funds.
In the United States territories
where education is compulsory
there are few school programs for
the eradication of illiteracy since
where the overwhelming majority
of the population can read and
write "objectives rise above mere
literacy and arc directed at train
ing for happy adaptation to en-
ployment opportunities"
In Puerto Rico, where compul-
sorry education is not fully en-
forced, illiteracy is dealt with
through the establishment of
adult elementary schools.
The United Nations through
education attempts Ito make men
understand that in the world of
today all peoples are members of
the same community and to pre-
pare them to live in that new
universe"
Elementary schools are the most
valuable weapon to eradicate ILL
teracy. The United Nations Edu-
cational Scientific and Cultural
Organization is considering a
special three year literacy school
as a means of providing education
for children unable to enroll in
the regular elementary schools. In
such a program great care must
be taken to see that the children
learn reading, writing and arith-
metic.

THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 20, 1851

The United Nations feel that
education is the fundamental basis
for progress in social, cultural and
scientific knowledge; that the ex-
tension of schooling and raising of
hteracy rates are prerequisites for
the raising Of general conditions.
One of the basic problems in
Non-Self-G Governing Territories is
illiteracy. There is no definite de-
finition to be given for illietracy
for the standards differ according
to the territory in which it is OBJ
served. In jamaica, Trinidad,
Tobago, Barbados, the Leeward
Islands, and the Windward Is
lands all persons capable of read
ing are considered literate. In
Puerto Rico, and our own Virgin
Islands only persons who are cap
able of both reading and writing
are considered literate.
The ratio Of school enrolment
in the following territories are:
Leeward Islands 22.3; Windward
Islands 21.3; Virgin Islands 20.2;
Trinidad and Tobago 20.1; Jamai-
ca 1877; Bermuda 1853; Barbados
1872; Puerto Rico 1879. It is inter
eSting to note that the Virgin Is
lands r among the highest ratio
of school enrolment.
In the Caribbean area literacy
is fairly evenly balanced between
the sexes, although there is a
greater extent of male literacy in
Trinidad and Tobago and a lesser
extent in Puerto Rico.
The principle of compulsory
school attendance has been adopt
ed, in nearly all Caribbean terri
tories. In the majority of these
territories, however, the school
attendance is either not enforced
or limited to certain districts.
In order to make possible the
introduction of universal free
education or of compulsory edu-
cation and the total or partial
eradication of %illiteracy, the Unit
ed Nations Educational, Scientific,
and Cultural Organization has
planned broad programs for the
expansion of education. In those
countries where the school system
is relatively highly developed, as
in most British Caribbean terri
tories the educational authorities
aim at providing a basic primary
education for all children Of
school age. The chief obstacle in

The United Nations
InNon Self Governing
Territories
by Melba C~anegata. Senior
Christiansted High School

Resolution 1923 adopted by the
General Assembly of the United
Nations on December 2, 1919, in
vited the Special Committee on
information transmitted under
Article 73C of the Charter to give
special attention to the problems
of education among the inhabi-
tants of Non-Self-G Governing Ter
ritories. The United Nations
Educational, Scientific and Cultu-
raj Organization was invited to
obtain information on ways of
suppressing illiteracy and eradi-
eating it.
The Universal Declaration of
Human Rights was proclaimed by
the General Assembly in 1913 "as
a common standard of achieve
ment for all peoples and all ma
tons" In Article 2, it is stated
that everyone is entitled to all the
rights and freedoms set forth in
the Declaration and that no dis
tinction shall be made ION the
basis of the political, jurisdictional
or international states of the
country or territory to which a
person belongs whether it be in
dependent, Trust, Non-Self-Gov-
erning or under any other limita-
ton of sovereignty.
Article 26 of the Declaration
states that everyone has the
right to education. Education shall
be free, at least in the elementary
fundamental stages. Education in
the elementary stages shall be
compulsory. Technical and profess
sional education shall be made
generally available and higher
education shall be equally acces
sible to all on the basis of merit"
Promoting harmony among the
nations through education is one
way to further universal respect
for justice. Even though there are
resistances to be overcome most
people realize the need for edu-
cation. Many require the assur-
anee that steps are being taken
to provide them with adequate
means of education.

To Hold Annual
.Confab in Capital

!. At the recent meeting of the

to hold the Leagues annual con-

Governor Theodore R. Nickel
din will be principal speaker at
the Dinner meeting scheduled fol-
December 7.
The League said possible pro-
gram topics for the convention
may include the forthcoming re-
port on the survey conducted by
the Public Administration Service
Of Chicago on the Government OF
Prince Georges County; also the
use of the front-foot assessment
as revenue device, particularly
Tor gaining revenue in water,
sewage and street benefits.
1t was reported also that the
town of Berlin, a member of the
League, has expressed a desire
to withdraw from the State Re-

ever, that the law which permits
a city to enter the State Retire
ment System makes no provision
for withdrawal. This also may be-
come topic of discussion at the
