MONMOUTH, Ore.—National rec
ognition has just been accorded the
Oregon Normal School by being ful-
ly accredited by the American Asso-
elation of Teachers Colleges, the
highest rating association in the
United States for institutions pre
paring elementary teachers.
A letter received ‘by J. A. Church
ill, president of Oregon Normal
School, from Charles W. Hunt, sec
retary-treasurer of the association,
states that the accrediting commit
tee of the association gave this rec
ognition after receiving the report
of Dr. Harry W. Rockwell, who in
spected the normal school during
the month of January.
In his complete report to the as
sociation Dr. Rockwell, a national
authority on elementary teacher
training and president of the State
Teachers College at Buffalo, New
York, paid special tribute to the
curriculum of the institution.
sub-
“The curriculum shows
stantial core of subject matter in
several fields which are of special
benefit in providing adequate back
ground for later teaching,” Rock
well's report states. “There is aleo
a noticeable sequence or proper or-
der of the included courses. Teach
ing methods courses are comprehen-
sively covered and subject matter
has been wherever possible profes-
sionalized so as to make it serve to
provide for the material for presen
tation in the classroom.’’
The inclusion of other accompa
nying courses in music, art, design.
health education and library in-
struction come In for praise from
the noted educator.
“The provision for practice teach
ing is notable not only for its com
prehensiveness but for its interest
ing organization as well," Dr. Rock
well indicated. “A larger number
of hours is required than is deman-
ded in most states. Students ac-
tually engage in from 250 to 300
hours in real teaching. Since we
learn by doing, it would seem that
the graduates of the Oregon Normal
School must have very definitely ac
quired skills in the art of teaching.’’
In the introduction to his report
on curriculum. Dr. Rockwell states
that Director Churchill, when con
fronted with the task of organizing
a curriculum, visited a large num
ber of states of the middle west
where he examined some of the
most representative teachers’ col-
leges in the states of Michigan, In
diana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minneso
ta, Iowa and Missouri. After set-
ting up
tentative curriculum
based on his own experience and ob
servations, Director Churchill, re-
terred the curriculum to national
authorities for their suggestions.
The curriculum was then put into
practice at the Southern Oregon
Normal School when that institu-
tion was founded in 1926. When
all the normal schools were com
bined in 1932 the curricula of the
three institutions were all standard
ized according to this plan.
In concluding his report on cur
riculum Dr. Rockkwell Indicates
that his only criticism is based on
his conviction that the curriculum
Is too short to provide the training
for teachers which the state proper
ly owes its teaching wards.
“Most other states are providing
three or four years of training,” he
adds, “and after I have observed
the spirit and leadership in this
state, I believe in the not distant
future Oregon will consider the ad
visability of following the example
of many other states and provide
the more extended curriculum which
progressive movement was interrup
ted when the depression came but
is now meeting popular favor. This
undoubtedly will be further acceler-
ated when normal conditions are
restored.’’
The long awaited program of pro
duction adjustment for the dairy in
dustry has now been made public
and will be submitted to the indus
try nationally through a series of
regional conferences, one of which
Is scheduled for Portland.
Monday and Tuesday, April 9 and
10, are the dates set for the regional
conference In Portland to serve the
states of Oregon, Washington, and
northern Idaho, according to notifi
cation sent the Oregon State College
Extension service by the AAA offi
cials at Washington. The confer
ence is being called by the AAA and
will be conducted by its representa
tives, and will be attended by pro
ducers and state college representa
tives in the states included.
The adjustment plan just an
nounced will be subject to final al
ternations as the result of sugges
tions made at these conferences, ac
cording to word from Washington.
As it now stands, the plan includes
the following provisions:
1. Production adjustment aimed
at keeping the national production
to the approximate levels of recent
late winter months, To do this in-
dividual dairymen will be offered
the opportunity to slgn contracts
agreeing to reduce their sales of
milk or its products from 10 to 20
per cent below the average for 1932
and 1933. In return they will be
paid adjustment benefits amounting
to about 40 cents per pound of but
terfat or $1.50 per hundred pounds
of milk on the amount they reduce.
The individual dairyman would be
permitted to select any method of
reduction he might choose, such as
reducing feeding, eliminating some
cows, using up the excess supply of
milk on the farm, or other means.
2. Provision is made to distri-
bute a considerable quantity of sur-
plus milk through the relief admin
istration to under-nourished child-
SPRING FOREST PLANTING
PROGRAM UNDER WAY.
The largest spring planting pro
gram ever undertaken in the North
Pacific region is now under way,
according to announcement from
the regional forester’s office, Port
land, Oregon. A total of 1,800,000
trees are being planted on 2,830
acres. The work will all be comple
ted by April 15 or sooner, it Is said.
Most of the planting is being done
by civilian conservation corps crews,
although some of the projects are
being handled under the national
industrial recovery act authorixa-
tlons.
The largest project is located on
the Columbia national forest, in
southern Washington, where 1,700
acres are being planted to Douglas
fir.
