course in Supervised Teaching in Physieal Education for Men are based on ny
experiences and observations in supervising the course under the present arranges
ments during the school year, 1959<40. I believe the course could be conducted
much more effeetively for the benefit of the practice teachers by certain changes
in administrative procedure within this particuler course.

Before presenting the suggested changes, let me list some of the difficulties
