STATE SEEKING SIMPLER MODE OF EDUCATION Committee to Study Normal School and College Teachers’ Courses. Further steps toward simplification of the schools of educational courses in the state institutions of higher learning have been taken by the state board of education, it was announced today. The announcement came from Floyd I McMurray, newly appointed superintendent of public instruction, who as a former member of the state board, backed the move ' for a thorough going study of the matter. Latest action of the board is to appoint a committee to choose a survey group to study all educational courses at Indiana and Purdue universities and the two state normal schools Course Consolidation Sought Members of the committee, according to Mr. McMurray, are Dr. Henry B. Longden. vice-president of De Pauw university; Dr. Joy Lacey of the Terre Haute normal school, and Superintendent Frank Allen. of the South Bend public schools. All are members of the state board. Ultimate result of the study is expected to be concrete action by the state board in consolidation of courses, which will eliminate the socalled ‘‘nonsense courses” in educational technique it was said. The board will use the data also to take action on the petition of some 250 college and university professors asking that the nineteenhour educational technique requirement for high school teaching certificates be lowered and subject matter credit increased. Governor Paul V. McNutt, former dean of the university law school and rated as an outstanding leader in support of schools during the depression, is said to favor this move. It is being bitterly fought by the teachers who teach teaching. Subject Experience Lacking That the change is sorely needed Is set out by Professor Alfred C. Kinsey of the department of zoology at Indiana university in a letter to The Times “I find the teachers more often handicapped by lack of experience with the subject matter than by any other one thing,” Professor Kinsey said. ‘‘We want our high school teachers to present a live biology that will be of practical use to the average citizen, that will help him enjoy the world through which he moves. Too Much Textbook ‘‘That means that these teachers should be utilizing the common plant and animal material of our every-day environments. The teachers of science face a special problem in handling of their laboratory and field work. ‘‘We find our young teachers having to depend largely on their textbooks, not knowing where to make their next moves in the laboratory and quite unable to draw on their local fauna and flora for illustrative instances of biologic principles. “While I realize that much of the fault lies with the organization of our courses in the subject matter in our training institutions, I do not believe that it is possible to give the student the desired equipment in biology in the time allotted under our system of licenses.” Potatoes can be cooked twice as quickly in Boston as in Cripple Creek, Colo., due to the difference in atmospheric pressure.

Too Long Huey Overstays Time in White House Visit.
By United Perse WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.— Cohorts of Huey P. Long in the United States senate insist the kingfish doesn’t know’ yet that he stayed in the office of President Roosevelt the other day just two minutes longer than was safe for him. The story as related on capitol hill tells how the President, in the midst of a busy morning, learned that Long was next on the list of Presidential callers. "If this fellow stays more than ten minutes,” the President is reported to have said, “call in the strong-arm guard.” The unsuspecting senator stayed with Mr. Roosevelt for twelve minutes. Then he walked out and said that all he knew was what he heard, and that maybe the White House would consider taking in a boarder like him.
