land.
Dr. Agee will remain at his

member of the new school's
staff.

new secondary school will be the
Reverend Peter Gamble, who

According to Dr. Agee the
school's purpose is, "to produce
sane and integrated individuals
to serve the ideal of mankind's
emancipation." It will be es-
pecially geared to serve child-
ren of parents with diplomatic,
cultural or' commercial ties
with both countries.

is complete, students in each
country will be encouraged to
study abroad for a year. Both
schools will follow the same
general plan so students can
transfer without a break in
classwork.
The aim of the school's aca-
demic life will be to create,
"breadth without superficiality
or congestion and depth without
undue specialization." It will
acquaint the science student
with the humanities and make
sure the liberal arts candidates
are aware of the technological
revolution. English courses will
be required at all levels and
several science courses will be
mandatory. Emphasis will also
be placed on Russian and Latin
as well as national and inter-
national civics and economics.
The school will try to com-
bine the American ideal of edu-
cation for successful integration
of the individual into his com-
munity and the English em-
phasis on leadership develop-*
ment. It will try to foster an
exchange of ideas from students
of both countries and change the
English "brain-drain" into a
more healthy "brain-exchange."
Boys in the new school will
not be withdrawn from life but
will be encouraged to partici-
pate in local and national af-
fairs. They will be allowed to
attend dances and social func-
tions of a sister school and
furnished with opportunities to
play both British and American
national games.
The school will be one of a
kind and the first Anglo-Ameri-
can co-cultural secondary school
on either side of the Atlantic.
