a stage the size of q football

scouts, leaders, and visitors a
each program.
The opening night program fea-
tured a pageant depicting the
story of Valley Forge and the
presentation Of the colors by
l,34o participating troops. The
pageant closed with a gigantic
fireworks display. The program
on the closing night of the camp
portrayed the theme OF Scouting
for 1857 Onward for God
and Country, covered the history
of scouting, and included the
presentation of the colors of the
SO nations participating in the
Jamboree. The campfire closed
with what a majority of the
scouts felt to be the most soul
stirring experience of their trip
- when all lights were extin-
guished and at one command each
of the $4,000 scouts lighted his
candle that represented the light
of scouting throughout the world.
AS the thousands of candIelights
flickered in the stiffness of the
night, all present rededicated
themselves to the principles set
forth in the Scout oath.
Habedank stated that while at
Valley Forge nearly all Scouts
in his troop qualified for the Val
ley Forge Adventure Award. To
earn this coveted award the
Scout had to participate in any
seven of the following activities
being carried on in various Sec
tons of the camp under pro-
fessional guidance: Signalling,
Fire by Friction and Flint and
Steel, Conservation, % Calibre
Orienteering, Archery,
Exchange, Whiting,
Workmanship, First
Aid, Angling, Ropework, and tour
of Historical spots. &s-
Friendship exchange consisted
Of meeting with and securing the
autograph name, and address of
not less than twelve brother
each of whom had to be
from a different state or nation.
The historical tour activity con-
sisted of a tour through not less
han two of the shrines and mu-
'eums located in Valley Forge
National Park. Each was designed
give a greater appreciation of

Americas age of Technolog,
has received a sizeable "shot IL
the arm" through the five-year
old Korean CT Bill education anc
training program, a Veterans AID
ministration survey disclosed
One = third of all Korean G.
trainees so far have trained fol
jobs in fields where chronological
advances are making greater de-
mands for skilled manpower, the
survey showed. Most of the cate
| gories, VA said, are in critical
supply.
More than 1900, 900 Korea
veterans already have received
training under the CT program
that has eight more years to go.
OF these, 81 percent trained for
technical, industrial and scientif-
ic jobs - many of which did not
exist a generation ago.
More than $4,000 have special
lied in various branches of sci
ence, including geology, physics
and chemistry; another $4,000
studied engineering. More than
400, 900 enrolled in craft, trade
and industrial fields such as cleo
tronics, metalwork and mechan-
les.
Some $685. 900 - or Is percent
of all traineeS - have taken
courses in business administra-
ton and management. A small
proportion trained for clerical and
sales work.
Among the professions, VA
found $4,000 veterans were train
ing to be teachers, with about
one-quarter concentrating in spe-
cial teaching fields such as indus
trial arts and physical education.
More than $1,000 others were
studying accounting; $4,000 IN
and related subjects;
$1,000, law, and 5000 pre-law.
The social sciences - such as
government, economics and psy-
chology - attracted $4,000 vet
eran : students. And more than
10000 studied for the ministry.
Another $4,000 studied art and
lesign, with nearly half learning
be craftsmen.
In agriculture, the VA survey
bowed $1,000 veterans learning
modern methods of farming,
mostly under the CT institutional
'n-farm program which combines
studies with actual ex-
,erience on the farm.
Some 220, 900 Korea veterans
we're enrolled in liberal arts

1t is probably lost cause, but
it is good one: Louis Graves in
The Chapel Hill Weekly inveighs
again against the now established
change of the, name of the School
of Commerce at Chapel Hill to the
School of Business administration.
Editor Graves writes:
School of Commerce was changed
to School of Business Administra-
ton some four or five years ago.
This was for no reason except that
this University, like all universities
and colleges, will never lose an OPP
portunity to use a long and POM
pous name where a short and
simple one will do as we'll or better.
At the time the change was made
l declared, in an editorial deploring
it, that the new name was not as
truly descriptive of the schools
functions as the old one was. This
statement is undeniable. Commerce
is a word honored in history. 1t is
simple and dignified. And it is
wide-embracing, applying to all the
courses that that school offers.
Business Administration is new
tangled and pretentious. And it has
no application to much of what the
school teaches. Graduates of the
school may devote the rest of their
lives to subjects in which they
specialized without ever having
done anything whatever connected
with Business Administration :.
l suspect that a dominant reason
for the choice of the name Bust
ness Administration is that it con-
jures up vision of plush offices
in skyscraper, obsequious door,
men, secretaries and stenographers
running in and out, elegant mahog-
any desks, batteries of telephones
and push-buttons, and receptionists
who inform callers that they are
SO sorry but the vice president
can't see you now because he is
ain conference" History and aca-
demic precedent and dignity and
commonsense can't stand up
against vision like that.

The President has done two
things to put another of Secretary
Wilson's sadly awkward comments
into perpectiye. and tie s4bjGct
back on the track. The first was
to say:
Anything. that people in the Ma
tional Guard have done they have
done in accordance with existing
law
Of course, some knowing "draft
evaders" did join the National
Guard from time to time. Some
found themselves later in the frigid
foxholes of Korea. There were
those who joined the Coast Guard
at the start of World War II hop
ing to "sit it out" And some of
these found themselves manning
LISTS off fire-swept beaches. (Con-
versely we could name a dozen
two-war veterans who Joined the
combat specialists-the Marines
in two wars and were never moved
from home shores.)
Neither the National Guard nor
the Coast Guard should be blamed
because some individuals sought
cover within the architecture of
these services as Congress design
ed them. And the impersonal de-
mands of war have a way of fool
ing both the laggards and the reso-
lutte.
The second thing the President
did was to underline the needs of
the guard ain this day of terrible
weapons and the kind of warfare
that places premium on skill and
discipline and training"-whicn is
what the discussion should be
about.

A NEWSPAPERS
RESPONSIBILITY
Roanoke Beacon)

1t is unfortunate that we have
witnessed several instances of ma
jor newspapers being used as wea-
pons of person reprisal in recent
weeks. Newspapers, as the readers
may or may not know, are sup
posed to print the news in the news
columns and express opinions only
in the editorial columns.
The entire justification for our
system of private ownership and a
free press in the United States is
founded upon the faith of the peo-
pie in the newspaper owners .and
operators to print the news fairly
and print all of it-not just what
would serve a special interest.
What has caused concern in the
United States in recent years is
the growing number of chains, and
their own growth and the use of
such chains to reflect a certain
editorial opinion. In the case of a
city or town with only OF, news
paper, foreign ownership and chain
editorial policies are often bad fol-
the community.
In recent instances, we have seer
some newspapers used as instru.
ments to blacken the reputation Of
certain men in public life. We dc
not take exception to editorial at
lacks against politicians, pubic Of
ficials, or anyone else, on an ethi
cal level. However, when a news
paper attempts to smear publ,
official only because it opposes hi
policies, and attempts to smear hin
by reflacting on his personal in
tegrity, his honesty or his truth
fitness, without having any proc
and without getting his side of tn,
story, then such newspapers threat
