The game was not as tight as had been ex- pected from the fact that Wilton, U. High and Mt. Vernon were lead- ing in the league. Neither team showed outstand- ing passing or defensive work through the earlier part of the game. ii The Mustangs' big quarter was the third when they bucketed 25 !points, paced by Dick Moore's 11. Wilton's bitting was off until the final period when they caught fire: and outscored the host team 19 to 16, and displayed some of the bas- ketball work that has rightfully put them up in the conference.

Statistics show that with the great increase in the number of children in the U. S. we will need 25,000 more class rooms and the same number more teachers for each of those years. That allows 30 pupils per room, but makes no provision for special teachers, supervisors or administrators. In other words, the problem that faces the local schools with overcrowded conditions is a general one to- day. Miss Parker also emphasized that present day schools have added so many new and essential courses to their programs to keep the educa- tion abreast of the times that "we want so many more things from teachers and they must have long- er preparation periods. Teachers cannot be adequately trained for their jobs now in a two-year per- iod." The implication was that more expense for training naturally re- quires better salaries on the job, just as it does in any profession. A community cheats only its chil- dren by hiring inadequately train- ed teachers. With the teacher shortage today comes the "recruiting" program This can often result in filling up with "discards". Recruiting should mean drawing the best from the Freland 9 and Bohnsock 2. i suonly SUI~ IARY BY QUARTERS t The speaker firmly believes Mt Vernon . 14 30 55 711 that America's great contribu- Wilton ~ . 9 20 36 55] tion to the education in the The hit, Vernon reserves alsoI world is its offering schooling came out on top in their curtainIfor ALL.

However, through hard work, sound judg- ment, and cooperation these problems can surely be wisely solved. As a nation and as in- dividuals we're expecting great things from you, 1952! May we take this opportunity to wish for all our customers and friends a New Year of peace, happiness, and prosperity. AAUW Urges Writing Materials Commiffee Throughout the nation commun-I ities are being baffled by refusals I to release essential materials for[ .~chool building purposes. In many cases these are most urgently need- ed to provide adequate housing for the school children. It is the responsibility of fhe cit- izens of the nation to make the materials committee in Washington !aware of the needs and of the fact ;that it is vital to release some for educational purposes as well as to defense areas The AAUW branch is urging local people to write their congressmen, asking that they do something constructive in this direction. Below is a list of those to contact. Senators: Lester Hill of Alaba- ma; George Aiken of Vermont Paul Douglas of Illinois; Hubert Hum- phrey of Minnesota; John Pastore of Rhode Island; H. Alexander Smith of New Jersey; Robert Taft of Ohio. i Representatives: Graham Barden; Cleveland Bailey of West Virginia; Thurston Norton of Kentucky; i Boyd Lacketh of Arkansas. Others: President Truman; de- fense mobilizer Charles Wilson; de- fense production adm. Ma n 1 y ! Fleishman. Postpone January Meeting Of AAUW The AAUW meeting scheduled for Jan. 5th at Armstrong hall has been postponed. A wire from Wash- ington, D. C informs the local branch that Miss Heinig, national officer, who was to address the group, has been injured in a car accident, The session will be held on the regular third Wednesday evening, Jan. 16, at the home of Mrs. Bigger. Details on the pro- gram will appear in a later issue of this paper. Beginning Jan. 1, 1952, we will close at 12 o'clock noon on Saturdays.
