the consolidation of elementary
schools was one of the reasons
for the county's return to a full
time superintendent.
Smith said, 1.-The people OF our
county recognized more than a
year ago that our present faci-
lities were inadequate, parti-
cularly as related to the one
and two room school in the
county and John Randolph and
Hamilton elementary schools.
These schools performed well in
the past. but are entirely made
quate for the type of education
we enyision for the future"
THE citizens Of the county al
most Voluntarily made provi.
sion for new schools by increas-
ing the tax 81. 90 one each $1O0 Of
real estate. Our people recognized
then we could have a better pro
gram than the present one at a
more economical cost, Smith
said.
AS smith takes over, the status
OF a new consolidated elemen-
tary school for whites and a
new one for Negroes is this:
Land has been purchased for
both schools, property near Cum
berland High School and
property near Luther P. Jackson
High School. The Literary Fund
loan for the Negro elementary
school has been approved, and
an architect is already working
on preliminary plans.
Smith said he expects the
funds for the Negro school, $3.50,
600, to be available by the first
of the year. He said the county
plans to follow up that applica-
ton with one for a white ele-
mentary school in the not too
distant future. The white school
will cost approximately $780,
900.
Academic Goals
But, building will in the long
run take second place to acade-
mic improvements under the
new superintendent, Smith, who
never served a year as principal
that he didn't teach, knows that
improvements can be made in
the instruction program.
Il have been here so long 1
know the type of instruction tn
children have been receiving.
It has been good, but l sincerely
believe it will be much better"
Smith siad.
MY dedication is to the young
people of this county. I want
those things that will improve
the type of instruction they will
receive. and I want them at the
most economical cost. I want to

eliminate all unnecessary thlngS,
but l plan for the teachers to
have adequate teaching mate
rails" said Smith.
Smith recalled what an i'm
provement in the county educa-
ti0nal program it was when the
high schools were consolidated.
1T broadened the scope of the
program considerably. and we
plan to continue to do that" he
said.
The employment of a physical
education teacher was a big
improvement at the school
where he was principal, Smith
noted. He said he wants to see
provisions made for that in all
schools in the county. His per-
sonal opinion on this subject.
Il think physical development
is essential to mental develop
ment."
Speaking from experience at
Cumberland High, the superin-
tendent noted that the school
sends about IS per cent of its
graduates to college and they
don't encounter too much diff
Guilty there.
Primary Objective
Our primary objective is to
improve the instruction program
in all of the schools Of the
county. Whereas they have been
doing a good job, we can do
better, Smith said.
Faculties for the coming year
have almost been completed. He
needs one more white teacher
The county staff will consist of
80 white teachers and IS Ne
gro teachers.
Smiths new quarters is a re-
novated home near Cumberland
High School. The office building
also provides space for book
and supply storage. Mrs. Mary
Musulin is secretary and book
keeper.
No major changes are expect
ed for school opening in Septem-
Der. Beginning in 1862 the county
will operate its own busses rath-
err than rent them, Smith said.
Cumberland's superintendent
received his B.A. and MA de-
grees at William and Mary Col
lege. He has had additional
graduate work at the ,Univerity
of Virginia.
Active in civic affairs in Cum
berland and in Farmville, Smith
is on the board of managers of
Southside Community Hospital,
member of executive committee
and secretary of the board of the
hospital, a member of the board
OF directors of First National
Bank. and is past president of

For the past Is years he has
headed up the March Of Dimes

News Summary

THE UN SECURITY COUNCIL
deadlOcked on the Bizerte crisis
Saturday. None of the proposals
before the council received the
necessary seven affirmative
votes. Liberia and other Afro
Asian nations then said they will
take steps to call an emergency
session of the General Assembly
to consider the issue, a move
which requires the approval OF
the majority Of the SO member
nations. ~Hammarskjold told the
council Friday night he had re-
ceived evidence during his re-
cent visit to Tunisia that the
French had violated the cease
fire and assumed function on

served to a sovereign state
THE Rome OF CONTENTION
in this dispute is the French ma
val base at Bizerte on the Medi-
terranean. When Tunisia. a for
mer French protectorate, be-
came a republic in 1857 it was
agreed that France would have
the right to maintain its base at
Bizerte. Tunisia wants the French
to leave and tried to enforce its
demands by blockading the base.
French paratroopers broke the
blockade and captured part OF
the city of Bizerte in bloody
fighting. The U. S. is caught be-
tween loyalty to a traditional al
ly. France, and the need to paci-
fy newly emergent nations such
as TuniSia.
