SEMINARIES AND COLLEGES 99

@ many of our parochial teachers (laymen and synod-
s) must pass an examination before the State Board
jon if they wish to continue teaching, some of the pro-
conducting summer courses and maintaining a corre-
sedurse to help them.

yiew of the crying need of more men at our Seminary,

yur professors have not enjoyed their leave of absence as

, Synod’s Handbook, although long overdue, and they are
-opportune time.

B. Requests
1. Professors

the above presentation it is very clear that till 1956
lessons must be given weekly. This would mean that
ave 17 professors in all, taking as an average 20 lessons
or, We have only nine and some assistants.

iy ask Synod, therefore, to grant us six more professors
triennium: four for the High School and College

one for the Normal School, and one for the Theo-
tment.

. 2. Residences for Professors

e have only nine residences for professors, and since
i éry expensive and well-nigh impossible in the neighbor-
pur Seminary,

dly request Synod to grant us the necessary funds for

tion of six more houses for professors. Approximate
cruzeiros for each residence.

... 8. Third Story on Our New Building

t present 144 students, of which number 20 are

rving in the army. If these 20 were here at present,

Ot have adequate quarters for them,

aref re petition Synod to furnish the funds necessary
story of our present new building. Approximate cost:

Wwe repeat once more that we do not need extra
t a few perhaps during the years of transition),
residences for professors, nor the third story on
ding, if Synod adopts the plan of reorganizing our
mal system as outlined in the following memorial.
