MONDAY, OCTOBER 22, “THE HIGH SCHOOL NEWS ees Edited by the Students of N. C. H. S. STAFF MEMBERS Alberta Baker Vera Toccalini Editor Senior Reporter Junior Reporter Sophomore Reporter. Buddy Roberts Freshman Reporter.. Betty Bettles iAL EDITORIA! Proposition Number 2 is coming before the electors on November 6. It deals with the financing of the Olympic Games in Califormia in 19382. The Olympic games will«eonstitute a great attraction in the state of California. The country, state and _ city where these games. are to be held attend to the financing and actual staging of the games as to physical-aspects such as the form of structures, equipment, facilities, organizations etc. The games are operated over a period of approximately eight months of the year designated. The events, for men and generally. speaking, winter sports, gymnastics, wrestling, boxing, rowing, swimming, water polo, equestrian sports, modern pentathlon, association football, field hockey, cycling, weight lifting, yachting, track and field, art competition, and exhibition ofn ational and foreign sports. women, are, follows: fencing, as The publicity, alone, given to this event possesses value for the entire State. The games will serve as a medium for attracting to the state, hundreds of thousands of visitors. Already national conventions are being’ scheduled for 1932 in California. California now faces the necessity of declaring herself for this opportunity. The cost is estimated at two and a half or three miilion dollars in addition to cost of facilities which have already been provided and paid for and will not be a burden to the fund. Read.No. 2 of California. Vote YES for No. 6 on the SIXTH and vote for the good Keep the schools. out of polities and politics out of the schools. Number. 6 deals with the reorganization of the state department tion. Education is the biggest’ tas! confronting the state of California biggest in the number of people involved, biggest of educa in point of money expended, and biggest in civie im portance. The state Department of Filnea tion is at present a ‘double-head ed’’ organization. A state board of education is appointed by the Governor and a state superintendent is elected by the people. Powers and ! rights of these two conflict in sever. ig . exhibit will al places. For two years California watched an expensive deadlock between the superintendent and the board. The superintendent nominated presidents of the state teacher’s colleges at San Jose and San Francisco and the board refused to elect them, which left-these institutions without official leadership. Number 6 provides’ that a board of ten members be appointed by the Governor with the approval of two thirds of the senate, for a term of ten years each, one _ elected each year. 4 This hoard will select, employ, and control the director of education, who will supercede and take the who will supercede and take ‘the Place of the present elected state superintendent of public:instruction. The new director will’ be sgelected by the Board of Education because of his standing as an expert . in educational affairs and not be-' cause of his ability as a ‘‘yote-get. ter’. This same type of organization, with a lay board and an educator, as superintendent, prevails in most of our city schools. USE YOUR VOTE.
