A course in Junior Achievement is being given at Boston Universit Frank W. Barber and Carl W. Buc ler, both well known to New Britain club members, are the lecturers this semester. The Boston University Summer school has announced that two three-week courses will be given in Junior Achievement. Plans for the June annual Leaders Training Institute at Springfield are being prepared and will be made public very soon. An increased reg- istration fee is anticipated, but it is hoped the number of New DBritain delegates will be sufficient to retain the honor of having the largest del- cgation present as usual. At the request of the United Week Day Church Schools Junior Achieve- ment is making a survey to deter- mine the type of assistance to pro- vide for the proposed playground in | the cast end of the city. Any boys in the city interested in a kite flying contest are requested to mail their names and address to Junior Achievement, §5 East Main | street, city. A sewing machine, electric model, | 1s offered to the Junior Achievement club in Connecticut that does the best work and puts on the best exhibit of its work at a state-wide cxhibition to be held in June. Detailed regu- Jations can be obtained at the local foundation office but the gene points to be considered in the con- test are: suitability of materials to| use, ca finlshing, quality of | workmanship, general appearance (cleanliness, laundering, etc.), the number of articles made and the club record. C William Helm of Hartford Each avenue, leader of the silhouette cary- ing group at the Boys' club, has de- veloped several original plaques which have earned favorable com- ment. i Mrs. H. C. Warner, associate direc- | tor of the Junior Achievement Foun- dation, is visiting her clubs again aft- er enforced absence duc to an attack of pneumonia. “National Boys' Week" will be ob- served this year from April 26 to May and while every week is boys' week in Junior Achievement, never- theless a special drive for more men leaders will be made by the local foundation during the week because it is claimed boys need more men for pals. The foundation maintains that boys' work is a great game and urges male adults to volunteer to Jead scout troops, Y. M. . A. clubs, Boys' club groups and Junior Achievement clubs.
