Horn urges education board to choose state superintendent
Dr. P W Horn president of Texas Technological School urged selecting the state superintendent of education by a board of education rather than statewide election. He argued a board selection aligns with expert guidance, cites a $50,000 survey cost, and warned Texas may gain or lose based on adoption of the recommendations. He also criticized rigid grading, urged fair measures of pupil effort, and cited health and fitness as factors in judging a teacher.
