ANTIOCH COLLEGE
From the business and profes
sional world into the academic
world went 300 "professors of
work" last month to help celebrate
the tenth anniversary of the famed
"co-operative plan" of Antioch
college at Yellow Springs, O.
Members of Antioch's field fac
ulty, representatives of 175 busi
ness and professional firms in 15
states, the professors -of work su
pervise the periodic excursions of
Antioch students into business.
They are an essential part of An
tioch's scheme, yet few of them
had ever before seen Antioch's
campus or their professional colleagues.
The Physical Plant.
The physical background they
saw looks much as it did in the
regime of Antioch's famed, pro
gressive first president, Horace
Mann, (1853-59). Though a new
science hall, a new gymnasium, a
library and a tea room known as
Ye Anchorage" have been built
on the big campus that has never
been formally landscaped, still
standing are the original four
dingy brick buildings with their
queer concave-pointed towers.
Hard by is the college's Glen
Helen, a hilly, 1,000 acre forest
tract where a century ago lived a
communistic or Owenite colony.
The village of Yellow Springs,
named for the oxide of iron in its
waters, resembles an oldtime New
England town, for Horace Mann
attracted many a New England
settler when he moved from Mas
sachusetts to Ohio.
Study and Work.
Half of Antioch's 650 students
were absent last week, for Antioch
divides its undergraduates into A
and B groups, sends the A's off for
five or ten weeks while the B's
study on the campus. Then the
groups swap places. Because study
time is thus interrupted the course
lasts six years though bright stu
dents may finish in five. Antioch
wTas the first Liberal Arts college
to adopt this co-operative plan,
previously employed in the Univer
sity of Cincinnati engineering
school.
Picking its students carefully by
means of questionnaires and inter
views as well as scholastic credits.
Antioch aims to enroll only those
who will profit by its system. Next
autumn it will take in forty-five
full time students, applicants too
young to go into outside work
These will take special courses,
pay $425 for their tuition. A and
B students pay but $300. Because
the workers earn part of their way
their average expenses are not
much more than $500. Minimum
expenses for a full time student
will be about $1,000.
As soon as possible after mnliic
ulation, Antioch freshmen are sent
out to work . Some are prepared
for it by studying in "gangs ' un
der vheir resident professor of
work, C. O. Schaub, an able, ex
perienced Virginia agronome. The
Glenn Gang goes down into Glen
Helen to clean underbrush and
chop firewood; other gangs to
painting, cleaning, repairing of col
lege buildings and equipment. For
this work they are paid, their
earnings increasing with their re
sponsibilities. Early in their ca
reer they take a course in "Per
sonal Accounting and Finance"
which trains them to care for their
money. Then Antioch sends them
out into business. If after two
weeks' trial it suits them they
must remain in the job a year.
Many a gib firm takes in Antioch
students Macy's, Marshall Field,
Swift, Dennison Manufacturing
company. International Harvester,
Detroit Edison, Cadillac, Ford, Na
tional City ban:. General Electric.
Westinghouse, as .well as local
firms in Springfield and Dsvton.
O. Thoueh it is too soon to nnmt
to any nation-famed Antioch grad
uates, Antioch finds its alumni on
the whole sticking to the trades
they have chosen, emminent in the
firms with which they started out
Miss Shanafelt Is
Making New Puppets
Miss Marjorie Shanafelt, assis

will use in a series of stories on
"The Musicians of Bremen" which
will be told to children's

UNIVERSITY PLAYERS
TO PRESENT 'LADIES
OF JURY' WEDNESDAY
(Continued from Page 1.)
a mixed jury assembled to deter
mine the guilt of a girl on trial for
the murder of her husband.
The first act, with its two
scenes, occurs during the trial.
Acts two and three are in the
juryroom, where for i hree days the
irrestable Mrs. Crane has been
waging a winning fight to swing
the verdict to "not guilty." With
each of the dozen jury members a
distinct and varying type, Mrs.
Crane plies some form of flattery,
diplomacy, trickery and even a
mild form of bribery, to win her
point. The result i s a play which
keeps the audience :n a constant
state of hilarity.
"This play was chosen to meet
the requests of many students who
prefer drama to the daily talkies,"
stated a member of the student
executive committee. "We feel that
in securing the presentation of
'Ladies of the Jury' we are enabl
ing summer students to witness as
fine a play as any seen during the
regular winter term."
Arthur Jones and Verne Jones
have been placed in charge of
ticket sales; Margaret Huston and
Gladys Zutter, ushering, and Sara
Upton and Wendell Dodd, assis
tants.
COOPER DEPLORES
EDUCATION'S IDEA
STANDARDIZATION
America has a good school sys
tem but no system of education.
That is the opinion which Dr.
William John Cooper, federal com
missioner of education delivered
last week in an address before the
Trade and Industrial club at the
Colorado Agricultural college.
"The new philosophy of educa
tion in America is that education
is concerned with the individual
and the indivdual system should
ascertan what the individual can
do best and help him to do it,"
Dr. Cooper said, directing his re
marks against the idea of stan
dardization in education.
Dr. Cooper's protests against the
hold which standardization is get
ting on the American peopel com
pare strikingly with similar
charges, made a week ago by Dean
F. E. Henzlick of the University
of Nebraska Teachers college. In
a talk last week Dean Henzlick
declared that American people are
becoming, thought robots because
of so many standardized ideas
which they follow. He deplored the
amazing lack of independent think
ing.
