Formula Indicates
Oakland Rich-With
Numerous Oak Trees

Officials of the District of Co
lumbia have proposed the use of
a complex mathematical formula
to solve a question of the value
of a tree. Such a question had in
trigued poets and nature lovers
down through the ages.
BY classifying trees as to kind
and condition and multiplying the
number of square inches in the
cross section area of the trunk As
feet above the ground, District Of
ficials have found that the value
of typical mature oak shade
tree is S1.178.10. A flat S45 fee is
charged at present by that city to
persons who have legitimate rea-
sons for asking for removal of
street trees on public property.
The formula was worked out by
national tree association and is
calculated to determine unneces-
sary chopping of trees there

BY the measures of his services
to the people one Of the greatest
North Carolinians who ever lived
was the late Hugh H. Bennett,
yet SO rapidly do the generations
pass away that, inevitably, he is
not held alive in the memory of
many people now living.
He devoted his life to the cause
of soil conservation and when he
retired ten years ago as Chief
of the U. S. Bureau of the U. S.
Soil Conservation Service his
achievements had received world
wide recognition. The Univer-
sity here, his alma mater, con-
ferred an honorary degree on him
in 1886. He was called upon by
governments and scientific socie-
ties throughout the tn world for adj
vice on his speciality.
,.s He was in the class of 1903 and
am one of those who were fell
low students of his in that era
and remember him with admira-
tion and affection.
He died in 1860 at the age of
70.
The reason l am recalling his
career now is quoted this week
at a governmental conference in
Washington. The occasion for the
remark was the statement in the
Bureau of Soils Report for 1909
that "the soil is the one indie
structible, immutable asset that
the nation possesses. 1t is the
one resource that cannot be ex-
hausted, that cannot be used up"
!, Hugh Benefits comment upon
this, quoted by some of the Wash
ington correspondents this week,
was: II didn't know so much

the Asian type. Ono doctor has

ed any such cases.
No Asian flu vaccine is avail

DR.. Garvin said he had tried to

early in the fall, but had found
that it was in short supply and
unavailable.
He recommended that persons
developing flu symptoms (high

GUS other symptoms) should not

ers on top of that. Next year
we'll have 800 more students
than two years ago, but less

allotted teachers, but they're al
ways a year behind"

Speaking to the lnterraclal

dents. '4... :, ..5 ~. ~.
In answer to questions from
members Of the Fellowship, DR..
Thompson said it was vastly SIM
pier at the present time to pro-
vide expanded program within
all schools by assigning teach
ers classes in various schools, ra-
ther than to transfer students.
@: Would it be possible to
integrate classes in special sub
jects?"
A: ".Yes, but the main OBJ
Stacle to switching students be-
tween schools for classes is the
State Law Of Liability. It's been
my experience that students tend
to get lost between one school
and another.
@: Gould School buses be us
ed to transfer students from one
school to anOther?'
A: mo, the State law forbidS
us to use buses in this manner.
Other than when they're bring
ing students to or carrying them
from school, buses had best be
sitting in the yard with the en-
CINE off. l had to get special
permission to use the buses at
noon to carry double-Shift stu
dents home"
@: 'TWould it be possible for
the Chapel Hill School system to
purchase its own buSeS?"
A: Yes, but then you'd have
to hire your own maintenance
crew. The State would not main
tain them for you"
DR.. Thompson estimated that
a town-owned bus system would
involve an initial outlay OF
100000.
The physical facilities of the
Chapel Hill School System also
interfere with establishment of
a consolidated and integrated
system Of specialized schools.
Sometimes the movement of
faculty precedes (the movement
of StudentS)."
