Trabne, beginning his first 'year as dean of the School of Education, in an interview with the collegian yesterday says, "The School of Education begins the aca .dqmic year 1937-38 with two really great handicaps: an old building which has never been adequate, even for the offices of instructors; and a new dean, who has not yet learned the traditions and procedures of the College. While the staff in ethication has 'been greatly weakened by the loss of Dean Chambers' and Profes sors Medsger, Rhoton, and Ruch., a considerable amount of encourage.' ment is being derived from the fact, that several young men of demon strited 'ability and resourcefulness 'have been added to the staff.
