Study of Bible at West High to Begin Next Term
West High will start a Bible study in the second semester English classes as an elective. Principal Sloane M. Wallace says the course will cover both old and new testaments to build continuity and ethical values, replacing some standard works in the curriculum. A separate assembly featured Prof T B Homan of Iowa State Teachers College discussing the effects of parental alcohol and cigarette use on children, noting 40 percent of feebleminded inmates are from alcohol-using homes and 28 percent from smoking homes. The Kiwanis male quartet performed, with Albert Scholin’s My Radio Doll receiving particular praise.
