who formerly taught similar
courses at the old Central High
School.
She drew q sharp distinction
between the ability and Wiling
mess to work between her former
students at Central and those
attending Eastern since integra-
Ition.
In this connection, she said
that at Central she would assign
outside reading which would
bring credits toward the years
work. At Central, she said, the
students read hundreds of pages
of assigned material. At East
ern. she said, "at present we get
no library reading reports at ALL
Reading Ability Bemoaned
Reading ability at Eastern, she
found, was VERY poor" and that
many students needed remedial
reading.
Answering questions from the
committee, she added. Il find ii
appalling that there are high
school pupils who can't read"
She was asked if there had
been a decline Of white students
in her classes at Eastern and
she replied. I'VE have lost white
students precipitously."
Since she has been at Eastern
Mrs. Weber added, "there has
been but one class that I could
consider a bright class"
4 The ability to learn there, she
said, seems to be on a lower
level. but added this sort OF
thing has been going on fol
many years. The slower pupils
she said. used to drop out.
| Mrs. Weber was asked how
often she gave tests to her social
study pupils. She replied that
she did after every chapter. q

two chapters between tests they

down on failures, she supplied
figures to show the following:
For the first semester Of last
lyear there were SO white stu
dents with nine of them failing
land ia Negroes, with 81 falling;
flor the second semester of last
year. there were 20 white stu
dents with seven failing and So
Negroes with is failing.
Another witness was Mrs
Emily r. Britain, formerly a
teacher in nursing at the Bur-
dick Vocational High School,
who resigned last january ''for
personal reasons"
Her testimony showed that
there had been big decline in
the number of students Of prac-
tical nursing. In 1854. she said
she had about IS students. with
ages ranging from is to IS, but
that as of last January there
were but 10 coIored and three

and so on. I'm willing to ac-
cept it.
But putting it into practice
l is difficult. ! think we need all
the help we can get"
Assistant School Superinten-
dent John M. Riocks said the
school systems bill for replacing
broken windows had increased
from $51, 800 in 1928 to $59.-
200 in 1856. He also reported
the cost of replacing lost and
stolen school equipment had
risen from $500 in 1928 to
$1,000 last year.
New System Proposed
A proposal that there be set
up a two-year system for some
Of the flrst-graders who are
found to be slow learners was
suggested by Mrs. May T. YER
MILAN, principal of the STAN
ton Elementary School.
She said she had found that
there were many children en-
tering Stanton who need two
years to make proper achieve
ment.
She suggested the need Of a
new set-up where the brighter
ones would be put in first-grade
A and the slower ones In first
grade B. Under such a system
she suggested the slower ones
could be promoted to the higher
first grade with the result that
their record would not show that
they were held back as failures
land yet they would not be passed
along to the second grade for
which they were not ready.
Since indignation, she said
there had been some additional
disciplinary problems but that
mostly these were little things
like tights among colored chill
Idren. She said most Of these
were started outside of the school
land that time was not taken
during school hours to settle
them.
She was asked about the gen.
Ieral level of achievement of stu
dents at Stanton since integra-
Ition and she replied that a large
majority did not measure up to
former school levels.
| She said that last year there
were "a 'retentions," meaning
students held back, and she
added that this was an unusually
large number.
UNFOLDING Standards
However, she said that Staun-
ton was maintaining standards
and I'VE have law and order and
we have parent cooperation"
She spoke Of getting children
who could not read on their class
level, adding ''the parents know
lit and there is a willingness on
| the part Of many to have them
put back so that their reading
ability can be brought up

BARRY WAS in London

ITS. He had just brought
across from Philadelphia the
merchant ship Black Prince,
as her commander.
He fastened back and of
fered his services, and a grand
fleet of two ships was author
lied by the revolutionists to
combat the mighty British
navy. Barry set forth and
began distinguishing himself
almost at once.
But one Of the most noted
incidents of his career came
of without the help of a ship.
With q men in four rowboats,
he padded down the Della
ware to where a British
schooner and two supply yes
sells were anchored.
The men clambered aboard
the schooner. The British were
so panicked by the sudden
appearance of armed men that
they dived for the matches.
After that it was merely a
matter of fastening the
matches and sailing the prize
into port.
When the h atches were
opened, it was discovered
that the 81 men had captured
a major, three lieutenants
and $50 British sailors and
marines.

The

Beluted Salute
To Navel Hero
By JACK JONAS

There seems to be a feeling
in some places that Commo-
dore John Barry lay forgotten
in his grave until the Irish
discovered him and dedicated
a statue to him last week near
his County Wexford, Ireland,
birthplace.
But the fact is that Ill
years after his death, his
memory was still alive enough
in Washington to cause an
early recess Of Congress, and
bring out the President, the
Marines, sailors, soldiers and
the Supreme Court in a group.
And those who think the
Father Of the American
Navy" is without honor in his
adopted country ought to take
a second look at the imposing
statue in the west end Of
Franklin Park, looking out on
Fourteenth street.
Commodore Barry fired the
first and last shots of the
naval part of the American
Revolution. When the war was
over, and the fiedgling coun-
try set up its new Navy,
George Washington handed
the commodore the Nays
No. / commission.
His exploits make the
fictional Capt. Horatio Horn
blower look like a second-rate
hero.
Commodore Barry and King
George III heard the shot
fired round the world at about
the same time.
