Local Interest
American camp week, April
20-26, the slogan for which is
"Let's Go Camping," is being
noted locally. The event is
staged each year to call atten
tion to the five million boys
and girls who gather in 10,000
summer camps throughout the
country during school vaca
tion.
Organized camping in Amer
lea, under the leadership of the
American Camping association,
has come to be recognized as
one of the most elective means
of conditioning young people
for life in our free society, lo
cal leaders state. Educators are
turning their attention to sum
mer camps as a supplementary
means of strengthening the
work of the schools. One uni
versity president recently made
the statement that "if we could
transfer the technique of mod
ern summer camps to our
schools, we would have the
greatest schools the world has
yet seen.
Several youth camps are con'
ducted locally, Including Girl
Scouts, Boy Scouts, Camp Fire
Girls, YMCA and YWCA.

only grade teachers.
At the University of Oregon
and Oregon State College,
where the only teacher training
is at the high school level,
grade teachers also would be
taught.
And the House also voted 50
to 9 and sent to the senate a
bill to change Portland State
College, now giving only fresh
man and sophomore courses,
into a four-year college. Liber
al arts courses would be offer
ed there, and both grade and
high school teachers would be
trained.
But the House, by a 40 to
19 vote, cut the heart out of the
bill, whose purpose was to
make it easier to consolidate
school districts.
The Senate had voted to have
consolidations settled by ma
