Admissions_at Smith College, gave
figures indicative of another trend.
At Smith, in the last five years,
. there has been an increase of 200

in the number-ef public schools rep-.

resented by applicants. In 1958,’ pub-
lie schools. accounted for 655 of the
“927 schools represented, while 855
public schools were counted in the
total’ of 1135 schools whose stu-
‘dents applied in 1963.
_ Mrs. Edward_S.- “Stimpson, Direc-.
tor. of Admissiqns at Radcliffe, ‘ob-
served:. , :
“Our Committee was impressed _

school applicants this year. We also
noticed a rather large number who
expressed interest in the fields of
science and mathematics.”

Miss Helen McCann, Director of
Admissions at Barnard, noted an’ in-

crease*in the number of» applica-

‘tions from students outside® of the
Metropolitan New York area, and a

slight decrease from. those - within’

it: She interprets this” shift-in- ape

-~plications as~a reflection- of: erenien

student mobility.

One of the major jicblanesoad
the’one on which the tutorial project
“is -eéntered—is education.. Reverend
Hanson has been working with the
principal of the elementary. school
in-that area.-The principal is anx-
_jous, toa. start. the. tutorial project’.
and ‘is willing to buy any special ma- _
‘terials needed. The project will con-
centrate on this particular’ ‘school,
with a program involving both ‘stu-
dents and teachers as well as the _
tutors from Bryn Mawr. Promising
students from’ the school will be
selected to participate inthe pro-
gram, which will be originated so
that small groups of students on
the same educational level and with
similar interests may work together
with a tutor. —

Reverend... Hanson. also hopes .to..-
“encourage community activity for .
“parents through’ the ‘educational —
program. Weekly trips to museums ~~
and other places of ‘interest in the
city are -being planned to include
students: and their parents. This
hopefully. -will’ encourage-community.
associations and projects for adults
in the neighborhood. :

Paula Pace, who is in charge of ~~~
Bryn Mawz’s part inthe program
is interested’ in attacking some-of- = s)
Philadelphia’s educational problems —
from a different angle than the Phil-. *~

~ adelphia Tutorial Project. The pres- —-
ent operation is necessarily decen-
_tralized, because of the immense
area it has to cover. The new pro-
gram, by concentrating on a specific
community could be more easily or-
ganized by a small group and would
give the tutors a sense of partici-
pation in the community.

The fact that people in the com-
munity are helping to initiate the ©
~~ project will hopefully make it more’ >”
feadily acceptable to the community ~ *
as-a whole. —Paula—also feels that. |
groups of students wHo are onthe’
same educational plane and: who
share the same. interests can pro- '
gress more rapidly than students _

with different problems.

“Paula stressed the experimental _ .
nature..of,, the. forthcoming, project... -
It is the first of its kind in Phila-
delphia and will serve as an exam-

ple for other communities. Reverend

ters who he hopes will be interested
in organizing similar projects after _
observing this * one.. Additional pro-
grams could then be arranged «for
the second semester of next. year,

will supplement the “project now in
effect.

- On July 1, the Philadelphia Tu-
torial Project will begin its sum-
_mer.program for approximately 600 .
junior and senior high school stu-
dents in ‘North and West Philadel-
phia and -Germantown.. Using 30
centers located in churches and com-
munity centers throughout the gray
areas of the city, college students
will tutor various academic subjects .
two evenings a week.
