Journalism Council Condemns Overload of 20 High Schook
Teachers Offer Suggestion For Best Class Work on Weekly Newspaper
Charging that many of the officials in high schools in the smaller towns of Kansas are Simon Legrese and others, the University of journalism, Miss Ruth E. Hurtl of the Tepee High School World criticised conditions in more than 20 schools in a report which was appealed to by the Council of Teachers of Journalism.
Too many classes to teach, too little recognition of the importance of a good high school newspaper, and too few of them available. An amount of work a newspaper requires among the things the Hunt reports holds against certain high schools.
Asks Five-State Survey
It surges a survey of 56 second-class towns in adjacent states to determine what teaching lead is just right for teachers to present working conditions. The report is a study of 28 schools in Kansas carrying journe-
That supervisors of high school newspapers are obliged to direct plays, teach track meet, manage school clubs and do a host of other things which makes them little better dragged in the deocrism of criticism.
"Twenty of the 25 schools reported that their journalism teachers were required to have outside activities." it says. In these 25 schools each teacher had five classes a day, and one teacher in the department could then attend all of their classes had to occupy their 'lessure' with three outside activities.
"To those who appreciate the sig-
ificance of this" and Miss Hunt's
interpretive influence to interpret its baneful influence to those making up high school school
"We must present evidence like this: 'The average high school paper is a 3-column biweekly. It will cover about 40 articles of advertisement, or some 200 inches of reading matter. To secure those 8,000 to 10,000 written pieces for the teacher must know intimately every corner of her school; the copy must all be read—the worthless as constructive criticism may be given."
"Then revised copy must be checked. Copy must be re-read. page-proofs must be delayed or time those 8,000 words appear in print they have been multiplied three times in those in charge of the publication."
Comparing a school paper to the publication of a novel, the report asks the author not only to turn out a book and not give her some special exemptions from routine reading.
The cast of one teacher of English is cited. She taught five classes (one of the journalism) published a paper twice a month, coached plays, and wrote a book. "But this year we aren't going to have an annual," she wrote hopefully.
Summarizing the conditions unfavorable to good instruction in these classes is hard. These classes a day and no outside activities are best for the instructor of a small class; they are not well-liked by the lister of a weekly paper, four classes and no outside activities are sufficent.

From that startling point American and English footballers became aware of these ways, until there has come to be little similarity in the methods used by them, but a new epoch in the history of football, which will William Webb Kill "first took the ball in his arms and ran with it."
