children are shown here while they examine and experiment with teaching materials provided
b\ the Savannah'branch of the Southern Bell Telephone and Telegraph Ccmoany. Johnson
Laboratory School is the demonstration school Cor Savannah State College.
/vppri n late kits are available for use in high and elementary schools, and the elementary
kit is call 'd. “Telezonia.” This kit contains telephones, ti'acher’s manuals, instructional ■book¬
let.'; lor pupils, film strips and a film, all designed and edited by educators and in keeping with
best teaching principles.
Pupil reactions were most favorable, and it was unanimously determined by them, that correct
telephone usage is one of the most important of the crmmunication skills.
Chatham County schools are fortunate in having facilities of this kind at hand only for the
asking, and are indebted to our telephone company for its foresight and interest in promoting,
to the maximum public school education. These materials very definitely support the underly¬
ing principles of teaching and learning in that they are colorful, manipulatory and realistic.

ROBESON THRILLS
THRONG AT
CARNEGIE HALL
NFW YORK -<ANP> — After
an absence of more than 10
years, Paul Robeson, world fa¬
mous concert singer and actor,
returned to Carnegie Hall re¬
cently and proved lie lost little
f Ills old magic, as he thrilled
a sold-out, cheering audience
which included several disting¬
uished personalities.
Robeson, barred from travel¬
ing abroad to keep concert
engagements because of his po¬
litical dealings, sang a well-
rounded repertoire of songs, In¬
cluding clas,steals, folk songs,
and Negro spirituals.
His audience, predominantly
white, rose to him |s Ihe en¬
tered.
Expected Trouble Fizzled
Before the concert, there was
talk of impending trouble and
15 policemen were stationed in
and outside the big theater, on
alert for demonstrations. Like¬
wise, a large portion of the
audience milled about outside
until the last minute. However,
there was no trouble. Copies of
Robeson’s recent book, “Here 1

Stand,” were even being sold
outside, as were copies of a
news sheet, “The Young Socia¬
list.”
Robeson .Still Tops
In concert, Robeson, though
60, still retained his rich sing¬
ing voice. But he was also force¬
ful and impressive as a speaker,
as he pleaded for a spirit of
brotherly love among peoples of
the earth.
His repertoire included works
from Beethoven and Moussorg.
sky, and the Negro spiritual, “I
Am Climbing Jacob’s Ladder,"
in which he asked the audience
i to join in singing. Artist and
audience also sang “John
Brown’s Body.”
Banned by State Dept.
Robeson, an honor graduate
of Rutgers College and Colum¬
bia University Law School, ha3
been denied a passport by the
State Department for refusing
to sign a non-Communist affi¬
davit. Because of this, he was
forced to cancel many concert
engagements abroad.
