Responsibility is assumed for both by the teacher and the change must be met by personal and departmental readjustment, asserted Dr. Highet, professor of Latin at Columbia university.
"A great many students come without knowing their capacities and abilities," he said. "It is vital that a teacher give the elements of a subject to a student having no other courses in the field; that a teacher immediately provides guidance and direction for those specializing and that a teacher attract and stimulate those entirely ignorant of the subject.
THE
"Teachers suffer from the danger of departmentalization," he told his listeners. The department needs to function outside of its specified limits in sharing with other departments.
"The world we live in is much more like the Renaissance world in terms of scholarship," Dr. Highet continued. "Material makes changes, new discoveries are brought about, new alters and tremendous gaps result."

But the picture is encouraging instead of discouraging, Mr. Highet contended. The whole tradition is based on "the spirit" of the vitality of our own subject."
"We increase our knowledge so much that we find it difficult to teach, but you master a subject, very difficult to teach it." Dr. Highet believes.

Japan Signs Agreement Granting Eastern Defense Bases To U.S.
Tokyo—(U.P.) Japan signed an agreement today granting the United States air, naval and army bases in Japan to serve as a defense of the islands and a barrier to Communist expansion in the Pacific.
News Roundup
The agreement implements the U.S.-Japanese security treaty. It becomes effective with the ratification of the Japanese peace treaty and the end of occupation.
Clauses in the agreement giving legal jurisdiction to American commanders over crimes committed by American troops manning the bases have aroused considerable minority and press criticism.
All American forces in Japan, including those serving the UN in Korea, are listed as "U.S. security forces," under the agreement. The negotiators made no attempt to work out a formula for sharing defense costs. The U.S. accepted Japan's 1952-53 budget appropriation of about $175 million, as its share of the first year's cost.
The agreement was reached after four weeks of negotiations here. It grants the American forces general assurance of adequate facilities for operation, exempts them from Japanese taxes and immigration rules and allows them to carry out certain business activities on the bases. The Americans are barred from Japanese politics and prohibited to violate Japanese law.
Warren To Enter Wisconsin Primary
London — (U.P.) — The Duke of Windsor, a lonely figure in black, sailed New York in the liner, Eliza Doolittle to resume his self-imposed exile.
The California governor, who came to Wisconsin Wednesday and spent the day and the evening in conferences at Milwaukee, said he would campaign actively before the April 1 primary. His entry becomes official with the filing of papers with the secretary of state here.
Duke Of Windsor Returns To America
Madison, Wis.—(U.P.)—Gov. Earl Warren of California, his knowledge of Wisconsin politics freshened by a series of hotel room conferences with his backers in the Badger state, arrived here today to file as a Republican presidential candidate.
His secretary disclosed that he intended to come back within a few months.
As the result, there was speculation that he might bring his Duchess next time, either under an agreement with the royal family by which she would be ranked as a "Royal Highness" or without the agreement. In that event, she would rank as an ordinary duchess, well down the court list of precedence behind her husband.

Communist Forces Repelled At Night
Eighth Army Headquarters, Korea — (U.P.) Communist troops attacked the Allied lines south of the Pamunjom truce negotiation area until day but were beaten off after a 30-minute battle at closer range.
An enemy platoon, armed with hand grenades and small arms, attacked a hill held by UN forces early this morning.
Allied artillery was called into action and the enemy withdrew shortly.
Allied fighter-bomber planes,
"making every bomb count," destroyed a 250-foot steel and concrete bridge in North Central Korea, damaged two other bridges and cut railroad tracks at 120 places. Other planes attacked 1.158 enemy supply vehicles during the night and destroyed 112.
18 Men From C-47 Parachute In Storm
Sydney, N. S. — (U.P.) — Eighteen men parachuted from a U.S. Air Force C-47 transport in a snowstorm Wednesday night and a passenger said today their biggest worry was "how it would be."
It turged out just fine, Capt. Robert J Hessler of (33-15 81st St. Jackson Heights), New York, told a reporter as he and the others from the gasoline-short plane rested in a Sydney hotel. All 18 were picked up by police and none was hurt.
The abandoned plane, enroute from Westover Field, Mass., to St. John's Nfld., crashed in heavily-wooded country outside the Sydney city limits. The pilot ordered all
aboard to bail out when he tried to land at Sydney to pick up gasoline but could not find the airport through the blinding snow.
