Lngford.sets an exciting personal- story' into motion in the October 'Reader's Digest. The' article' is an account of an . actual experience which happened to this Stetson t English professor last May. , ■' Langford was ? a member' of a sea-going school for - boys,■■■ and acted as . an:. English instructor. -He'was aboard the 92 foot square- rigger Albatross, homeward bound to end ■ a 10,000 mile cruise. The ship was 180 miles from'the tipyof Florida, and ■ headed■ for the. Bahamas , -where the -14 - students aboard would stand their final exams. • -' ,.'-..'':.,--• i . "Suddenly the Albatross lurched heavily to a Starboard,""' , writes Langford, "and a thick stream of green water poured in on -me."' Immediately - Langford and-his cabin-mate realized ,that the- ship was in danger. ".'?' .". ■. -. .'We scrambled down from our bunks and stood in the splashing water, :. . '.' ." trying to "stay on our 'feet, waiting for the Albatross" to right herself. She never'did." Langford tells of his near drowning, and vividly . recalls his thoughts ■ in those ' moments ' in which -life-..or death were in the hands of fate. By almost a.miracle, he.rose to the-surface of-a heavy sea? from tlie confines of a sunken ship., -' - - "There was no ship- when -I looked around the whitecapped sea' —no beautiful' Albatross full of happy boys' on their way home from: an adventurous - cruise. -Instead, ' I saw a vegetable . crate, some cans' and bottles, and a lot of floating sails and broken spars." After swimming •'for • a - time, Langford spotted some of the crew, and a longboat. Only after he climbed" aboard ?"a life raft which had floated, to the surface, did he begin to catch hold of the magnitude' of the situation. • "I,made-a silent count of the swimmers. "Thirteen. Six missing: Dr. Alice,; Spook and-four boys. Each survivor had made the. same Check with, his eyes. No one said anything about-the missing.''/ ' One of tlie boys who had drowned, lost his life because he was 'trying: to free a longboat "while, the Albatross -was going down. Although he die"d,.'the longboat' did. break free, and gave the survivors two boats'-in which to save their lives. "-.' , For a" full day,,. Langford, and his ;crew'' steered their .longboat with an oar in open seas. ' "About" ten o'clock that night Chuck Greig thought he spotted ah airplane, but it turned out to be one of the earth satellites swinging in its orbit across the? sky. An hour later a boy in the "skipper's boat saw. a light.

The installation was started Sept. 1 and is expected to be completed by .sometime in November. The total -'cost of the organ is approximately $40,000.' . ■ The unique-instrument was. prefabricated by the famous organ- builder Rudolph.von Beckerath of Hamburg, Germany,-and is being installed by his workmen.

"We are receiving an increasing number of requests for such skills from "prospective host countries," according to Dr. Nicholas Hobbs, Director of Selection for the Peace Corps. "We -will have to turn down these, requests if we are" unable to meet their needs." Many of those who' will take examinations on October 7th will be men and women who have'sent in a Peace Corps questionnaire since the last testing ih July. - - But others are welcome as well. If you have not yet filled iri a questionnaire, but are interested in Peace Corps Service, you can still take one of the examinations on'October. 7th.

The, grant launches a prograrii of individualized" instruction •' in 7th grade mathematics' classes in a majority of the junior high,schools throughout' the county during the 1961-62 school .year. The research study will run for 18 months. , In conventional? teaching' each pupil's .progress depends ■ on that pi the: rest of the - class,•- but the new project will-allow math'pupils in experimental ' sections to : proceed at their own speed." _-; • - The-unique project-is under-the direction of Dr. Joseph T.. Sutton, ■University phychology' professor, and a research team of experts. They include Dr.,Gene W. Medlin, mathematics prof essofj. Frank Sganga,- science' and math consultant for the schools, and Dr. Anne W. Ward, director of guidance. The new learning method, allows'each pupil'to proceed through written instructional materials as fast as he can. He may. also obtain private -counseling at the teacher's desk any time he needs it. ' ; Those :students who- -can . are encouraged -, to - move, ahead - as rapidly as possible—those who are a little slower receive -the. advantage of individual tutoring. Eight county teachers tried" a prelimiriary-.pian during .the -1960- 61 school year with good success. The program was devised by.Sgan- ga,' who. first tried out" his ideas four years ago at Oak' Hill School. The new teaching" experiment expands the,pilot plan.to test its efficacy" county-wide. under controlled . research, conditions. Instruction consists of procedures and materials specifically, prepared to help;teachers .individualize'instruction with the" usual classroom situation. ,. • .' _, ' Not all' pupils" taking "7th grade math during the school year will be involved in the research. Math teachers- will use the riew' method in some of.their, sections but continue ;to teach other sections - in a' 'conventional' manner iri order to match - the' -results. _ • •. _':" •^'-.Participating vteachers-'will- -enroll in Stetson University's teacher training'' program? for ' three - semester hours of advanced- credit in Junior High Schools methods and three, of. Educational ' Research. The University will award scholarships covering tuition and fees to all participants." , . ' At least once, a month on Monday night, teachers-will meet with the research team for evaluation purposes on Stetson's DeLand campus.Vand other Monday nights in various parts of the county, The team, will - analyze the systematic observations'of individual pupils collected by .the teachers. • According to : Dr. Ray Sowers, director of.teacher education at Stetson, - the? project is a frontal attack on' some of the problems of junior high school curricula. "I think it is one of the most" significant, pieces of research now- being undertaken,". Sowers. said, "and, it's another'example of the way the public schools :and -the University are working together to improve'educational methods." " The mathematics project will test whether the individualized instruction . procedures "which have been developed are superior- to conventional - classroom methods. It is hoped also that :new - ihy- potheses. regarding y efficient individual instruction can be formulated.- -. •Materials - for the experiment have already been developed. They consist of units' of, text,- practice, and testing rnaterials representing the traditional contents of a,7th grade math course. These' materials will be used in place of the conventional text book. " The procedure, lets a math pupil progress largely on his own. After completing r a written . unit, the pupil takes, a self-test, checks his own success, and'is in turn checked by the teacher. . If the student then, passes -a unit test administered by the teacher, he can move on to the next unit? Thus,each pupil moves ' fr. fr " , fr -*- ,(See.

Notes A Decline In Rushees Slight "A slight decline this. year -under the number of men signing up for Inter-Fraterriity - Council rush last year is accounted for by IFC president Chip, Shore by .'the fact, that many new men' plan", to wait until second-semester to'join.a fraternity.' "I expect a large, second semester rush," Shore, a Sig Ep, said in a recent interview. Although the decrease .in number of rushees is .only- from 180_ last year to 172"this-year, the fact of increased enrollment =: at.' ■ Stetson, especially among men, magnifies the difference between the two figures.- . Improvements, Shore noted in this year's' rush are better advertisement," a better rush- book, and more unification among fraternities. However, he,said that rush is in most respects "the same as always" and an ' "easy - rush for freshmen .because there are no complicated rules." ■ ,' Fraternity -rush will end Oct. 6 with pledging. In addition to taking-1 care of rush, other IFC projects are col-, letting food for the needy at Film Club Starts With Love Story The Stetson'Film,Club will open its-first semester season tonight -with ' a French movie: THE PROUD AND THE BEAUTIFUL The film is a product of French existentialism, showing its char-' acteristic preoccupation with dirt and pain, but With a Aypical ending. A love story, with two of the-best-known -stars in France, Michele Morgan and the late Gerard Phillipe, it combines heat, squalor, and human emotions-in a peculiar texture of its own. The riiovie is in spoken French with English sub-titles. This year-the, film club is showing, its features-with-the regular Friday night movies in .the Stetson- Room. -The- double features will start at-6:30, and the. film club' selection will be shown second, in each case.
