MORE ON TRIP EAST
The Herald Editor gave some informa-
tion last week about a trip to Chicago
and attendance at a meeting of the execu-
tive board of the Association of Governing
Boards of State Universities and Allied
Institutions.
The executive board meeting finished
its work May 1, but the writer was urged
to stay over for the 35th annual meeting
of the American Council of Education,
which met the two following days.
The Herald Man stayed for one day of
the meeting and heard Dr. Arthur S.
Adams, president, give his annual address.
Following his address various sectional
meetings were held. Sections were on
financial problems of liberal education at
the college level, coordinating programs
for international understanding, education
and national manpower policies, develop-
ing effective college teachers, improving
the administration of intercollegiate ath-
letics, and education and television.
The education and television conference
was chosen by this writer for attendance.
It was presided over by Rev. Theodore
M. Hesburgh, executive vice-president of
Notre Dame University. The recorder or
secretary was I. Keith Tyler, director, In-
stitute for Education by Radio-Televison.
Speakers included George E. Probst, dir-
ector of radio, University of Chicago;
Ralph Steetle, executive director, joint
committee on educational television; Dav-
idson Taylor, vice-president, National
Broadcasting Co., and Franklin Dunham,
chief of radio-television, office of educa-
tion, federal security agency.
As this writer believes that television
will be used in education, the discussion
was of much interest. In conversation with
Director Brobst of the University of
Chicago, he expressed the hope that suc-
cessful operation of five or six television
stations for education will open up the
field.
As an example, he stated that the library
movement did not progress rapidly until
Andrew Carnegie erected 1,000 library
buildings; also, that medical education and
hospitals did not have high standards until
the Rockefeller Foundation set a pattern
through support of Johns Hopkins Uni-
versity.
A dinner was held that night at the
Palmer House, the principal speaker being
United States Senator Paul H. Douglas of
Illinois, who was a professor in the Uni-
versity of Chicago and other institutions
for many years.
The audience was surprised, as Sen-
ator Douglas did not speak upon national
affairs, but spoke from the standpoint of
a professor and as a person who would
like to live over his life again in order to
pursue somewhat different studies.
Douglas felt that textbooks had been
inadequate and declared that no professor
should make it compulsory to use text-
books he had written. His chief regret
was that he did not become familiar with
many great philosophers and writers until
later in life—naming Plato, Aristotle,
Socrates, Shakespeare, Milton and others.
The senator recommended family read-
ing of Shakespeare, parts being assigned
for emphasis. Through efforts of his wife,
Douglas said he had become interested in
the works of great artists, especially
Flemish. This hobby has proved most
helpful and interesting, according to the
senator.
Early Saturday morning, May 2, the
writer flew to St. Louis to spend a little
over a day with a sister. That afternoon
was spent at the ballpark to see the Card-
inals defeat Philadelphia 3 to 0. Sunday
morning the writer heard Dr. Edgar God-
bold preach at St. John’s Methodist
Church. Mrs. Godbold is from El Paso and
Dr. Godbold is on the board of Southern
Methodist University.
Considered the leading Methodist
Church of St. Louis, St. John’s was estab-
lished in 1868 and has been in its present
building on Kingshighway Boulevard
about 50 years. It is understood the negroes
have moved within about four blocks of
the church and the future is uncertain.
Farsighted leaders are building an en-
dowment fund, which has already reached
$165,000. Earnings from this money can
be used for upkeep, or it is possible that
the fund may be used to move to a new
location, should it be deemed necessary
in future years.

NEW LITTLE AMERICAN ... In New York City, Hans Meissnest and
