More young people are needed as workers in the Townsend movement, the speaker declared, and recommended that this could best be accomplished through: the formation of young people’s Townsend clubs. Miss Hansen pointed out the lack of opportunity which was generally prevalent for young people coming from colleges and high schools. Later she outlined the fact that the spending power of the elderly annuitants under the Townsend plan of economics was the apparent hope for restored general employment. The speaker stressed a recent statement by Dr. J. W. Studebaker, United States commissioner of education, to the effect that “there are 3,500,000 young men between the ages of 16 and 24 who are numbered among the unemployed of the nation.” “Many politicians prate about constitutional rights and the preservation of the constitution, but do nothing to promote the rights that are guaranteed by the constitution,” Miss Hansen said in urging correction of the evils of unemployment and crime tendencies among the youth of the nation. These, she said, were the fundamental problems of today which the Townsend plan proposes to correct. Miss Hansen concluded her address with a prophesy that millions of young people will eventually become fired with the same zeal for the Townsend plan which the elderly people now possess. Herbert F. Kenny, accompanied by his wife, sang a group of two solos as an added feature to the program. Grant Henderson of Santa Ana and Walter R. Robb, president and secretary, respectively, of the Orange County association of Townsend Club officers, were introduced by Mrs. Ida S.

The discussion, in which selected experts are to participate, will develop practical ideas for the use of teachers in preparing, directing and fixing the value of special units of work. Teaching children by the "unit of work" method is a procedure which has as its object stimulation of individual initiative among children as opposed to the outworn plan of "cramming subject matter into their heads" according to Arthur F. Corey, assistant superintendent of schools of Orange county and president of California Teachers' association, southern section. It is not, he explained, to take the place of but to augment drill on fundamentals. "For example," he said, "a class may be given a unit on 'Faith in Democracy'. Members of the class conduct their own research, prepare charts showing the advantage of American democracy over other landscaping of Campus at High School Starts Federal Funds Outline...

Fysh, general manager of the Merchants and Manufacturers association of Los Angeles, will speak before a mass meeting of Anaheim and Orange counties residents next Wednesday evening, December 9, at the auditorium of Anaheim union high school instead of at the Elks club as originally announced. Plans for the meeting were completed this week by George W. Reid, secretary of the Anaheim chamber of commerce. Fysh will talk on "Condition of Labor on the Pacific Coast," it was declared. The speaker, through his affiliation with the Los Angeles commerce group, is thoroughly acquainted with labor conditions on the western slope, it was said. A special invitation was extended to members of the Anaheim Farm Center at the meeting of that organization last Tuesday evening.

Man Leaves Home; Car is Found Here Investigation in the disappearance early this week in Venice of a man named Oliver centered in Arthur F. Corey, assistant superintendent of schools of Orange county and president of California Teachers' association, southern section. It is not, he explained, to take the place of but to augment drill on fundamentals. "For example," he said, "a class may be given a unit on 'Faith in Democracy'. Members of the class conduct their own research, prepare charts showing the advantage of American democracy over other forms of government. Because they 'dig out' the material themselves and transfer their conclusions to paper, that which they learn is impressed more deeply on their minds than is subject matter crammed into their heads by teachers. For a child to memorize subject matter is not as essential as that he thoroughly understand the real meaning of that which he memorizes. The unit of work method breathes life into what to many children might be dead text with little or no significance. A unit of work, of course, may concern itself with any one of numberless subjects. The foregoing is used only as an example." It is the purpose of the panel discussion in Anaheim, according to Corey, to discuss before Orange county teachers tried and proved ideas in connection with units of work which have been successfully developed elsewhere. Members of the panel will be: Dr. J. Murray Lee, director of research and curriculum of Burbank city schools, chairman; Dr. F. G. Macomber, director of curriculum, Riverside city schools; Miss Margaret Bennett, director of guidance, Pasadena schools; Mrs. Gertrude Howard, principal, Crozier school, Inglewood; Miss Mardele Robinson, director of guidance, South Pasadena schools, and Fred Trott, principal Roosevelt and Washington schools of Burbank.

The Anaheim meeting is one of a series of similar conferences being held in various cities of Work on the landscaping will be started as soon as the clearance project is completed.
