White House Library Receives 100 Great Books P received a collection of the Great Books, which comprise the heart of the liberal arts program at St. John's College of Annapolis, Md. The books, numbering more than 100, will be added to the White House Library. They were presented to the President in his office by Theodore R. McKeldin, Governor of Maryland, a St. John's board member: Richard F. Cleveland, chairman of the college's board of visitors; and Richard D. Weigle, president of the 258-year-old school. Through its Great Books curriculum, Dr. Weigle told the President, "this little college in Annapolis has been pioneering a return to the traditional liberal arts of thinking, analyzing, judging, and communicating which marked the education of great public men in the early years of this Republic. "These books are truly our heritage as western men. Each is a masterpiece, exemplifying those very liberal arts of thought and imagination. Each deals with some great theme of human experience as valid now as in the days when it was written the wisdom of Socrates, the plays of Shakespeare, the eternal verities of the Bible, the political lessons of the Constitution and 100 GREAT BOOKS HOMER, Iliad, Odyssey; HERODOTUS, History; AESCHYLUS, Agamemnon, Choephoroe, Eumenides, Prometheus Bound; SOPHOCLES, Oedipus Rex, Oedipus at Colonus, Antigone; EURIPIDES, Hippolytus, Medea; ARISTOPHANES, Clouds, Birds; HIPPOCRATES, Airs, Waters and Places, Ancient Medicine, Oath, Sacred Disease; PLATO, Ion, Gorgias, Meno, Republic, Apology, Crito, Phaedo, Symposium, Parmenides, Theaetetus, Sophist, Timaeus, Phaedrus, Cratylus; THUCYDIDES, History of the Peloponnesian War; ARISTOTLE, Generation of Animals, On the Soul, Physics II, III, IV, VIII, Metaphysics I, V, VI, VII, XII, Nicomachean Ethics, Politics, Poetics, Organon; EUCLID, Elements; ARCHIMEDES, Selected Works; APOLLONIUS, Conics; LUCRETIUS, On the Nature of Things; VIRGIL, Aeneid; The Bible; EPICTETUS, Discourses, Manual; TACITUS, Annals; PLUTARCH, Lives; NICOMACHUS, Arithmetic; PTOLEMY, Almagest; GALEN, On the Natural Faculties; PLOTINUS, Fifth Ennead; AUGUSTINE, Confessions, The City of God; THOMAS AQUINAS, Summa Theologica; DANTE, The Divine Comedy; CHAUCER, Canterbury Tales; PICO DELLA MIRANDOLA, On the Dignity of Man; RABELAIS, Gargantua and Pantagruel; MACHIAVELLI, The Prince, Discourses; LUTHER, Three Treatises; CALVIN, Institutes; COPERNICUS, On the Revolution of the Spheres; MONTAIGNE, Essays; BACON, Novum Organum, First and Second Book of Aphorisms; GILBERT, On the Magnet; KEPLER, Epitome of Copernican Astronomy; DONNE, Poems; SHAKESPEARE, Richard II, Henry IV (Parts 1 and 2), As You Like It, Twelfth Night, Hamlet, Macbeth, King Lear, Tempest; CERVANTES, Don Quixote; HARVEY, Motion of the Heart and Blood, Generation of Animals; GALILEO, The Two New Sciences; DESCARTES, Rules for the Direction of the Mind, Discourse on Method, Geometry, Meditations; HOBBES, Leviathan; SPINOZA, TheologicalPolitical Treatise; MILTON, Paradise Lost, Samson Agonistes; BUNYAN, The Pilgrim's Progress; PASCAL, Pensées; CORNEILLE, Cinna; RACINE, Phèdre; MOLIÈRE, Tartuffe; LA FONTAINE, Fables; NEWTON, Principia, Optics; HUYGENS, Treatise on Light; HOOKER, Ecclesiastical Polity; LOCKE, Essay Concerning Human Understanding, Second Essay on Civil Government; the Federalist Papers.

St. John's has sought to restore to American higher education a modern equivalent of the liberal arts once studied at the college by colonial leaders. Founded as King William's School in 1696, the college is now independent, nonsectarian, and coeducational.

Alumni Association. George Washington's stepson was also a student. Four signers of the Declaration of Independence were members of its first board of visitors and governors. St. John's launched its single, 4-year, nonelective curriculum in 1937, Dr. Weigle said, as an answer to the increasing specialization in higher education which made it more and more difficult for young Americans to acquire a real liberal arts education. The St. John's program, stressing seminar discussions and individual understanding, has since widely influenced higher educators. More than half of the St. John's students enter graduate and professional schools. A recent survey found graduates of the "new" program forging ahead in business, industry, and the professions. Education of Negroes (Continued from page 135) Illiteracy is a constant, underlying many of the economic, social, and cultural problems of Negroes. The greatest incidence of poverty, disease, and personal maladjustments in occupational, home, and civic life is found among the illiterates. There is a high correlation between illiteracy and malnutrition, infant and maternal deaths, occupational inefficiency, low-grade employment, and low wages. In short, illiteracy is associated with most of the indices of low cultural and living standards.13 13 Reece, B. Carroll, "The High Cost of Illiteracy," School Life, May 1952, Vol. 34, No. 8, p. 115 ff. Although illiteracy is a national problem (see map below), involving all racial and geographic groups,14 its high incidence among Negroes is emphasized here because of its relevance to the general subject under discussion. Studies 15 have shown a sig nificant relationship between Negro rejection rates (for failure to meet minimum intelligence standards) in World War II and the level of education as represented by expenditure per Negro pupil, school attendance, and high school enrollment. Relation of Schooling and Environmental Factors and Test Results Many studies 16 have presented strong evidence that there is a significant relationship between inadequate schooling and certain environmental factors, and scores attained on mental tests. For example, Negroes in general make lower scores than whites in the South, but Negroes in the North, by and large, make a higher score than whites in the South. Their rejection rates are somewhat higher than those of whites in the States where they attend the same school. This is accounted for by the fact that even in these States frequently there has been some difference in the schooling received, as well as by the fact that Negroes usually participate in the culture at a lower level than the whites.17 14 Caliver Ambrose, Literacy Education, Circular No. 376, U. S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, Office of Education, Washington 25, D. C., June 1953. 15 American Teachers Association, The Black and White of Rejections for Military Service, Montgomery, Ala., August 1944, p. 24. 16 Ibid., p. 28-29. 17 Ibid., p. 30. Klineberg 18 says that "the problem of racial or national differences in mental test scores is closely related to the problem of the effect of socioeconomic factors." He also indicates that environmental changes have an effect upon test scores. There is also the suggestion that the language, speed, and motivation factors also affect the test scores. All these have special relevance to anyone brought up in an impoverished cultural environment. Davenport presents evidence to support this general thesis. He found that among both Negroes and whites. a much higher percentage of the inductees from the Fourth Service Command (comprising the Southeastern States) were classified in Grades IV and V on the Army' Classification Test. For whites it was 51 percent; for Negroes, 95 percent. The corresponding percentages for the Southwestern States were respectively 45 and 93.19 The particular relevance to Negroes lies in the excessive extent to which they suffer the handicaps common to all low-economy groups. The mass movements of these people from rural to urban and from southern to northern areas emphasize the importance of these factors in their educational and cultural adjustment. The social, economic, and scholastic problems which Negroes have faced in the past, and still face, although to a somewhat less degree, pose some important questions: (1) Is there need for defining and clarifying minimum requirements and standards of performance, on the various school levels, so that our increasingly mobile population may not be unnecessarily handicapped? (2) Should remedial programs be planned to assist those children and youth needing help to adjust to the new conditions which many of them will encounter, as they move into new geographic regions, or new school situations? (3) Would it not be the part of wisdom to develop programs of intergroup education. in order that administrators, teachers, pupils, and parents might meet the problems with greater knowledge, understanding, appreciation, and good will than many of them at present possess? These questions have significance not only for the effective educational development of all American children, but also for the improvement of human relations among all our people. 18 Klineberg, Otto, Characteristics of the American Negro, New York: Harper & Bros., Chapter II. 1944. 19 Davenport, Roy, "Implications of Military Selection and Classification in Relation to Universal Military Service," Journal of Negro Education, Vol. XV, No. 4, 1946, p. 585. Education in Athletics (Continued from inside front cover) senior high school. . . . There should be no postseason championship tournaments or games. Girls should share equally with boys in facilities, equipment, and funds allocated to athletic activities. . . . But girls' athletic activities should not be imitations of those for boys. The Educational Policies Commission endorses the report of the Joint Committee on Athletic Competition for Children of Elementary and Junior High School Age, Desirable Athletic Competition, published by the American Association for Health, Physical Education, and Recreation. This report recommends that priority in resources be given to broad programs of instruction for all children, to intraschool activities, and to informal activities such as play days, sports days, and occasional invitational games involving children of two or more schools. The EPC concurs with the Joint Committee in disapproval of interschool competition of a varsity pattern, and similarly organized competition under auspices of other community agencies, for children below the ninth grade. A similar point of view was upheld by representatives of 30 national educational, medical, and service organizations at the National Conference on Games and Sports for Boys and Girls of Elementary School Age held in Washington, D. C., May 1953. Among the principles agreed upon at that conference are: Programs of games and sports should be based upon the developmental level of children. Competition is inherent in the growth and development of the child and depending upon a variety of factors will be harmful or beneficial to the individual. Adequate competitive programs organized on neighborhood and community levels will meet the needs of these children. State, regional, and national tournaments, bowl, charity, and exhibition games are not recommended for these age groups. Progress has been made over the years in upgrading athletic practices. Leadership of high-school athletic associations, professional educational organizations, and other groups has played no small part in this development. The pronouncement on athletics of the Educational Policies Commission and the other statements mentioned here are effective augmentation to the efforts of all who wish to put more athletics into education and more education into athletics.
