Right Standards and Ideals Will Modify Instincts, Says Assembly Speaker
Insisting that people could learn to live together successfully only as the result of systematic social instruction, Dr. Charles A.
Ellwood, internationally known sociologist, demanded before the student assembly Tuesday that the social sciences be made central in all schemes of public education in the United States.
“We demand from one-fourth to one-third of all the pupil s time in the schools,” said Dr. Ellwood,
“From the time he enters the kindergarten until he is through college. Social education should j be central, consisting of instruc- I tion in history, political science, sociology, and economics—these	>

Monkey Business In Contribution To Intellectual Work
Intellectual amusements were at a high pitch on the campus Wednesday noon when, in addition to the steam shovel performing on University Avenue, an organ grinder and a monkey amused a crowd of students just outside the Students’ Store on 36th Street. Professors with academic problems on their hands, high school and elementary teachers, and mere undergraduate students all delayed going to class while the music box turned out “In a Birch Canoe With You,” “Everybody’s Doing It,” “Sweet Adeline,” and other modern hits.
The monkey “did his stuff” to perfection, and when the wanderers finally moved on their departure was view’ed with keen regret. Those who had classes moved awTay, while the rest shifted over a few steps to watch the steam shovel pick the street to pieces. It was a busy day.
