Among Three
Chosen For Study

The LoriS High School is one
OF the three South Carolina
schools selected for a study by
the Division of Vocation of Edu-
cation under the erection OF Il.
D. Anderson. The other schools

Is to compare the College re-
cords of students who took voca-
tional subjects in high school and
those who did not.
The entire record of all of the
1888 graduates was used in this
survey. Loris Supt. NJ. p. Camp
bell studied each record, placed
a value on each grade earned,
listed the units earned in each
field, calculated the average
grades and listed the colleges
attended (if any and named the
present occupation OF each. This
required many hours of work
Tut the study should prove to
DC valuable.
Mr.. Anderson wanted tc
study a large city school, a med
ium sized city school, and 4
small town school, hence the Sc
lection of the three" Campbell
says. The results Of this survey
should be known in the neat
future.
