Rogers. Dr. Douglass spoke on the topic, “Should We Have Universal j Secondary Education?”
“There are five million boys and girls of the ages of 16 to 24 who : are neither in school nor at work,”
I said Dr. Douglass. “Ours is the ' first really unwanted and unpro-; vided for generation of youth. One ! solution offered to this condition is ! that the age limit be raised so that j all boys and girls be kept in high school at least until the age of 18.
“This would be unsatisfactory for at least two reasons,” continued Dr.
Douglass. “In the first place, the high schools of today are not so organized as to meet adequately the needs, interests, and abilities of all boys and girls. Secondly, every young person should be educated through some type of work experience and responsibility. This is particularly true of those not interested in school work.”
Dr. Douglass briefly outlined a plan which might prove more satisfactory. He recommended a cooperative arrangement between school and factory. A boy or girl of 15 or 16 would spend half time in school and the other half in some occupation appropriate to his or her abilities and interests. All would stsy in school until they had com-i pleted the equivalent of a high school course. This p’2n would apply especially to those who found ■ little to interest them in the tra-| ditional high school course.
Two strong reasons for adopting j this plan were mentioned by Dr.
Douglass. Many things taught in i high school would be more effective | if taught when the pupil is more | mature. In the second place, such j an arrangement would improve opportunities for guidance and make it more possible to place each pupil the General Alumni association of in a type of work for which he or the university of Southern Califor-she is best fitted.	nja> to serve during the 1937-38

The alumni officers were installed i at the annual banquet of the Gen- j eral Alumni association, held re-; cently under the chairmanship of Byron C. Hanna, retiring president.
The new president, Gough said,
* The dance is being held because of the tremendous success ot thc first all-university informal dance held last week.
INFORMALITY KEYNOTE
Informality will also be the keynote of this dance, which will i*e conducted along the same line* as all regular session university dances or “digs” as they are more commonly called, according to Cochard.
“Every Summer Session student is cordially invited to attend thi dance.” he said. “The purpoM of the affair is to create a more friendly feeling among the various students attending the summer classes.”
COMMITTEE NAMED
The committee will include Cochard. Caroline Everington, vice-president of the ASUSC. Ann Richie, and Evelyn Huffman.
“In keeping with the tradition of all U. S. C. dances, anyone may cut in on anyone else while dancing, and no one needs an escort to attend.” Cochard said yesterday.
The price of admission will be 25 cents per person. “It is hoped that every one attending Summer school will make an effort to attend this second social function of the season as it allows everyone a chance to become acquainted with his fellow students.” stated Cochard.. “A good time is j5TomIsed all who attend and all you need is a quarter.”
SET FOR IP.M.
The dance will start promptly at 7 p. m. and because of the expected crowd all persons planning to at-terid are urged to make an effort to be there early. More than 400 persons attended the first all-university dance.
Bud Parks and his ten-piece dance orchestra will play for the event. The Parks’ band has become known throughout southern California for its smooth-sweet, satin-styled. danceable music. The orchestra has just recently closed a successful engagement of week-end dances at the famous Palc« Verdes country club in Palos Verdes.
“Due to the fact that there wil! be only one Summer Trojan next week, and because that comes on Thursday, this will be the last announcement of the dance.” Cochard said.
