MINNEAPOLIS (UP) Malcolm 8 MacLean, director of General college of the University of Minnesota has suggested that English teachers con. centra t on the language of the day. MacLean, once an English teacher himself, added In a kindly tone that it would be a fine Idea if the teach era would "bring teaching of Eng lish Into the Idiom of our own time and place." "I don't believe there should be any rules of grammar," he said. "Teaching of grammar has been de scribed by one of the most brilliant grammarians as the description of a dead language. Teaching of rhetoric has been said to be a description of the structure of a dead language." The professor pointed out that fewer than 8 per cent of the citi zens read the classics now taught. The rest of tbe people read the dally newspapers and "get their infornuv tlon from the pulp magazines." Offers Family Picture. "Susie and Johnny," he said, "hud- die In a corner and read and enjoy the latest 'Betty Boop' book: from the dime store, while the click ol Fred. Asta Ire's and Ginger Rogers' heels ring In tbe ears of the older children even as they enter the Eng lish classroom. And all of them nightly devour super-heated radio programs." He warned English teachers must not underestimate the Influence ol speech of radio and motion pictures. "For Instance," he said, "If a film star uses an expression like 'that's the dope' the kids pick It up and within a short time It becomes part of the lexicon of modern youth. The English teacher nor anyone else has the power to stop It. So why not accept it?" Must Nurse Language, He went on to say that "we must combat the flood of pseudo-Oxford and Hollywood polygots which pour Into the people's ears. We must take the English of Minneapolis, Hollywood, New York and Tew Orleans, and nurse It Into articulate being." And then he added: "I do not mean to say that no grammar should be taught In schools at all. I believe we should take a few of our students who show more signs of being grammarians, but them In a class of tbelr own and then turn some of our best gram marlans loose on them. But we should teach the other "living' Eng llsh." The university educator, despite his opinions on teaching English, still thinks a lot of English teach ers, especially those In lower educa tional Institutions who always have been blamed by those In the higher. "A good elementary school English teacher," MacLean said, "should be paid as much as the best professor in graduate schools." Roosevelt Starts Final Try For Fish GALVESTON. Texas.. May -0.
