TUESDAY, JULY 11, 1950 Dr. John P. Jones Opens Workshop Lecture Series Dr. John Paul Jones, pastor of the Federated Church of Dowag iac, Mich., opened the eleventh annual Pennsylvania Workshop lecture series on Sunday when he declared that civic centers will someday replace the public school system in the United States. Speaking before approximately 200 students and visitors, Dr. Jones discussed /the role of the School, in' aiding the community program of development and then traced his own experien6es as a pastor in the Dowagiac Church in Michigan. "I' can see a time," said. Di. Jones," when the public school will be replaced by a civic center which will unite all branches of ' community life including edu cation and recreation. I believe this to be a coming thing in the development of community life in America." In most communities, Dr. Jones said, a program of central in terests cannot yet be set up by the church because of lack of cooperation from sufficient cross section of the community. In this case—without a strong commun ity church—it is the logical job of the school to provide' this program. Quotes Bible Introduced 'by Mia r ion R. Trabue dean of the School of Education and Director , of Sum mer Sessions, who' in turn was introduced by the Workshop coordinator, Mary Jane. Wyland, professor of education at the Col lege, Dr. Jones pondered on the question of how to get the school to serve the community. He called on two biblical quotations to serve as a guide. "Love thy neigh bor as thyself," and "Let • him who would be great ainong you serve." First developing his experi ence and ideas of a liberal re ligion in a men's church class in Flint, Mich.,—"where my pupils ranged from - a group of self appointed atheists to - ultr a radicals"—Dr: Jones told the shirt-sleeved audience of finding a church in Dowagiac which combined a cross-section of corn munity, leadership with a well organized, civic program. - Burns to Ground On the very day that the Rev. Jones was to have taken over as its.pastor, the 96-year-old stric- BARBER Prompt and Courteous • Service • • BUTLER'S BARBER SHOP . 109 E. Beaver.

A civic centre called the Joseph Fax Foundation was erected and, according to Dr. Jones, "a unique charter was drawn up between the trustees of the old church and the trustees of the new foun dation." The church was made available for - total community use with no race, 'color or other religious restrictions for one-half of the week, while at other times the _building was to be used as a center of community interest. "When you start to serve the school," Dr. Jones said,' "You also start to serve file community.

Workshop Dr. Gerald Wendt, former dean of the School of Chemistry and Physics at the College, will present the second in the series of Pennsylvania Workshop lectures in 121 Sparks at 11 a.m. today. Dr. Wendt will discuss "What Is Science Doing to Us," and will point out that science is the most powerful of all forces acting on society to produce constant and rapid social changes. Most of today's school children will be healthy citizens of the U. S. in the year 2000, he believes, and since life expectancy is now close to 70 years, we must educate the youngsters for the totally dif ferent living conditions at the end of the century. To do that, it is essential to watch what is hap pening in the research laborator ies, which he calls the "birthplace of the future." Dr. Wendt, who received his A. M. and PhD. degrees at Harvard after graduating from that insti tution in 1913, became the first dean of the School of Chemistry and Physics at the College in 1924.
