'4 Helping Backward School Students An answer has been found to the problem of what to do with the high school pupil who has difficulty in finishing his course in four years, as far as one high school is concerned, and may soon be found, for. all high schools who can enlist the services of a nearby college in a new typo of educational At least so the situation appears to Dr.

J. Albert Blackburn, associate professor of education at the New Jersey College for Women, under whom such an experiment is now being made. 4 Recently upon the request of Edgar F. Bunce, supervisingprincipal of Metuchen High School for help in bringing up to normal the work of deficient students, Dr. Blackburn asked for volunteers among the college seniors In education.

It was made clear, from the start that the work would bring neither remuneration nor academic credit. Thirty seniors who Tiad 'already completed the practice teaching period required for graduation offered their services and when the plan was announced to the high school pupils more than 100 asked for tutoring. "The immediate benefit of the work we are doing now goes to the high school pupil," Dr. Blackburn observes, "who is now able to make up last term's deficiencies and go on with the new term's work at one time. As far as we are concerned, the work helps us get at the root of the.

criticism that in the study of education we are full of theories, but Impractical, for we are tying up theory with actual practice." N. J.

As the programs are' broadcast after the regular school session is concluded, attendance is entirely voluntary. The average attendance at the Tuesday concerts at the Maxson School has been close to 175 and the Thursday concerts have been attended by approximately 100 children. The pupils remain during the entire program, which is followed up by the teacher with special class work.

The Tuesday programs are devoted to history subjects while the Thursday programs are devoted to literature, civics and poetry. Reception of the programs at the Emerson School Is still in. an experimental stage. Small groups of about ten children attend one ef the weekly concerts, the better one.be-ing chosen each week. Between 20 and 40 children of the Evergreen School have been attending the Thursday concerts.

Because of other activities at. the school, no attempts have been made to have an audience for Thursday broadcasts.

Times Square studio in the New Amsterdam Theater Building, former home of the Ziegfeld "Follies." At the very heart of Broadway, high above the principal arteries of the entertainment world, the N.B.C. has taken over the. entire New Amsterdam Roof and transformed it into one giant broadcast studio as an important addition to its elaborate quarters at 711 Fifth avenue.
