K. U. Teachers To Judge Music
Five members of the School of Fine Arts faculty will serve as judges for the two-day district high school music festival which opens here Friday.
Individual theories of teaching and the problems of modern civilization and language provide a mixed aim for all Romance Language teachers, according to the views of E. F. Engel, professor of German, and W. H. Shoemaker, professor of romance languages, as expressed at the annual meeting of the Kansas Modern Language Association held in Emporia recently.
Believe Romance Language Teachers Have Mixed Aim
Clarence E. Sawhill, former Liberty Memorial high school music teacher, and now a member of the University of Illinois music faculty, also will be a judge for the two-day festival.
Judges from the University are D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts; Russell Wiley, director of the University Band; Waldemar Gelth, professor of violin; and Miss Meribah Moore and Miss Irene Peabody, associate professors of voice.
Students who qualify in this contest will go to Topeka May 8,9,and 10 for the regional contest.
Both speakers agreed that there is more than one aim for which a teacher must strive in teaching a foreign language. Engel expressed his belief that the failure of teachers to recognize two objectives, a reading knowledge and a speaking and writing knowledge, has produced the complexity in instruction aims.
