Demand For Teachers Grows Daily-Chandler
"Filling teaching positions remains as much a problem as ever," H. E. Chandler of the Teacher Appointment bureau has announced.
Calls for teachers continue to pour in at the bureau office. A latter received this week from the Superintendent of Schools in Wyoming asked Mr. Chandler for help. Another letter from Ohio requested approximately 30 teachers.
"The situation is the same throughout the 48 states," says Mr. Chandler, "and little can be done about it." Few students are graduating in the educational field, and a large number of those who do, are not teaching, Mr. Chandler explained Teachers are being drafted in increasing numbers, and others are entering some kind of war work.
XAVIER CUGAT AND HIS ORCHESTRA
Mr. Chandler also announced an additional teacher appointment received at the bureau office this week. Mabel Penrod, who was graduated from the University in 1928 with a master of arts degree, is teaching mathematics in the Trenton, Mo., Junior College.
