Report of Discussion;
The representatives from the publishing company referred to above which has written textbooks for senior high school home economics, came with Mr. Shigematsu to request a definite date on which they could receive back the texts left for approval. Friday, 4 April was given as a date.
Mr. Shigematsu then proceeded to discuss the suggested revisions made by the undersigned in 7th grade textbook at last meeting. Due to the 64 page limitation on this text, it cannot be very comprehensive, and therefore justifies the insertion of much content material into the course of study. Mr. Shigematsu reported that textbooks for the 8th and 9th grades will be submitted on the 10th of April.
