Georgia Teacher
Shortage of 2,700
Seen by Purcell
Further evidence of Georgia’s
extreme school teacher shortage
was cited this week by Dr.
Claude Purcell, finance officer
for the State Department of Ed
ucation. Dr. .furcell estimates the
shortage in round figures to be
about 2,700.
He said 750 new teachers are
needed each year to take care
of teacher retirement; another
750 to meet the needs of new
thousands of children reaching
school age each year; and about
1,200 more to fill the places of
those teachers who resign for
various reasons during the school
year.

CAN YOU PASS ?
Are you fit to drive? Safe driving depends on many factors. You must
know and obey the traffic laws, of course. But what about your ability to
Uriye— to handle a car safely?
(Traffic accidents are zooming and the public is aroused. Public offi
cials are grim. Some states are already tightening their driver licensing
laws. The time is not far distant when all drivers must pass periodic re
examinations to determine their continued fitness to operate a motor
yehicle. The fact that you have a driver’s license today doesn’t mean you
will have it a few months or a year from now.
z Don’t gamble. Drive safely, obey the law, and be sure you are fit
airways.
So give yourself that tougher test right now—

How about your accident record-good or bad?
How about your police record—good or bad?
How about your physical and mental condition?

The Brantley Enterprise
A suggestion that the Atlanta
Division, University of Georgia
could materially aid in solving
Georgia’s teacher shortage'' "Was ~
made last week by James S. Pet
ers, Vice Chairman, State Board
of Education.
Peters said if the Atlanta Dis
ision was authorized to give de
grees in education, the institu
tion could furnish about 200
teachers a year. The Atlanta Div
ision now largely confines its
activities to business education.
Dr. George M. Sparks, direct
o> of the Atlanta institution said ।
the division could train teachers
for the public schools and wonld -
be glad to do so if given. permis
sion by the University’s. Boar;d .
of Regents, but Dr. O. C^ Ader-,
hold, president of the Uniy^siVv*'
of Georgia at Athens, disagreed- ‘
with Peters on the sdfegtsMon.’"!
the Atlanta Division be lige^ias;
a teacher training ground.
Dr. Aderhold said the problem
is more one of inducing people*;
to enter the field of teaching
than one of having adequate fa
cilities for teacher training.
Asked if he would oppose giv
ing the Atlanta Division the au
thority to grant degrees in edu
cation, Dr. Aderhold said the At
lanta Division gives degrees in
business administration. This is
the assignment given. it by .the
Board of Regents although the
division does give a three-year
general program of education.
