Initiation Conducted By Society ur. uorotny Slolp, in structor in speech and drama at Southern Oregon college, was Initiated into Epsilon chapter of Delta Kappa Gam ma, international honor so ciety for women teachers, at a ceremony at the Medford hotel, Saturday, November 19. Mrs. Alice Ottis told of the history of the society of Delta Kappa Gamma, its purposes and accomplishments. She stated that the challenge to women educators is greater now than at any other time.

During the dinner hour, Miss Gladys Owen, president, introduced the officers, the guest speaker, Miss Fern Trull, Grants Pass, and new member, Dr. Stolp. Mrs. Marie Bjorlie, Ash land, led the group in sing ing. Miss Trull, who has trav elled in Africa, Japan, and China, spoke on the subject "Status of Education in Other Countries." She discussed the particular problems of education in the individual countries of Asia and sections of Africa. She told of the literacy rates, the opportunities for the educa tion of women and .the dan gers of Communistic domi nance. In many of these countries, students want education for work in which they can "keep their hands clean" since much of their contact with the white man has shown him in work of that type, she said. Miss Trull discussed the ter rific pressure under which people in Red China are liv ing. The schools are domi nated by Communist teachers well trained in the provision of indoctrination. Commun ists cannot afford to educate bright students because they might think freely, the speak er said. She pointed out that Afri can school systems have failed because they have not con sidered the tribal systems which have resisted educa tion. The educated man was not wanted either by his tribe or the white people, Miss Trull s,aid. "The educated blacks are a lost people," was her statement. The speaker believes that the U.S., as a leaden, must sac rifice some of her own "plush living." She concluded that Asia and Africa are keys to this nation's survival. "The challenge to help is to us: the question is-how will we meet this challenge?" Miss Trull concluded. The speaker, a member of Omega chapter in Grants Pass, was introduced by Mrs. Merle Woodward. Hostesses were Mrs. Alice Gay, Mrs. Bertha Haskins, Mrs. Ruth Hawkins, Mrs. Alice Ottis, and Miss Yetta Olson.
