The School year begins on the 18th of Maskarem (September 28th) following Maskal, the day of the finding of the Holy Cross- and ends on the 15"^ of Hamle (July 25T4), His Imperial Ma¬ jesty's Birthday. The data refer to the beginning of the school year and supply informa¬ tion on the number of schools, grades, students enrolment and teachers. Data on students studying abroad are supplied separately. Source of Data Data exposed in this publication have been taken mainly out of three pu¬ blications of the Ministry of Education and Pine Arts, Government School Cen¬ sus for year 1955 (issued October 1956),for years 1956 - 1957 (issued June 1957) for years 1956 - 1958 (issued June 1958), for Enrolment, Teacher Supply and School Facilities with special Related Studies". Source materials on Secondary Schools and Schools of Higher Learning have been found in the special file in the Department of Research and Curriculum Development, Education Research and Statistical Information Service of the Ministry of Education and Pine Arts as well as in some data collected by the said pepartment on foreign teachers in Ethiopia and on students abroad. Inclusion and Comparison In this publication are included data on Elementary Schools, Academis Se¬ condary Schools, Schools of Higher Learning, Special Secondary Schools operated by Ministries and Departments as are the Ministry of Education and Pine Arts Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Public Health, Ministry of Commerce and Industry and the Civil Aviation Department. Data on the schools managed by the Ethiopian Church^Private and Mission Institutions on Elementary an secondary le¬ vels are excluded. - 6 - The table surveys refer to the entire territory of Ethiopia, Eritrea included, saVe the years 1945 - 1947 (EC) which lack data on students enrol¬ ment in Eritrea. Por the years 1948 and 1949 (EC) total data comprise only the number of schools and classroom units in Eritrea and estimates on classroom units for each kind of school; however, these data for each grade in Eritrea have not been separately estimated and consequently are lacking for the-entire Ethiopian territory. There also supplied estimated figures of student.enrolment for some Secondary Schools by sex because the table surveys comprise data on some Speci¬ al Secondary Schools which were not included in the afore mentioned publicati - ons of the Ministry of Education and Pine Arts. Discrepancies between data supplied in the publication and those in the publi¬ cations of the Ministry of Education The following table (p.8) shows discrepancies in data on students en¬ rolment and number of classroom units given in this publication and those as su¬ pplied in the mentioned publications of the Ministry of Education and Pine Arts. Data on Enrolment Figures showing the students enrolments in this publication are higher by 202 in 1948 (EC), by 287 in 1949 (EC) and by 111 in 1950 (EC). These discre¬ pancies come as the result of the following elements; a) Figures denoting the students enrolment for Primary Schools are he¬ re in 1949 (EC) higher for 6 due to the error in addition the figures on Eritrea in the.publication of the Ministry of Education and Fine Arts; b) Due to the same reason the figures on Middle Schools are in this publication higher by 101 in 1949 (EC) i c) Secondary Schools The figures for 1948 (EC) are in this publication higher by 202 due to the following reasons; - The enrolemnt figure for the Médhane Alem School, Harar is not 210 but 207 - 3 - This publication includes the students enrolment and Direc¬ tor Curse, Addis Ababa + 12 - This publication includes the students enrolment for the one year Teacher Training School, Addis Ababa + 161 - 7 - - This publication includes the enrolment for Nurses Trai¬ ning School, Asmara + 32 + 202 The figure for 1949 (EC) are higher for 180 in this report to the following reasons? - The data supplied by the Ministry of Education comprise the students enrolment for the Agricultural College, Alemaya, wrongly put under item of secondary schools - 58 - This publication includes the enrolment for the Vocational Trade School, Addis Ababa + 89 - This publication includes the enrolment for the One; year Handicraft School + 30 - This publication includes a figure higher by 119 in the en¬ rolment for secondary Schools in Eritrea + 119 + 180 Figures for 1950 (EC) are in this publication by 111 higher due to the following? - This publication includes enrolment for the Nurses Training School, Welega + 28 - This publication includes enrolment for the Civil Aviation School, Addis Ababa +■ 85 + 111 The above data may also serve for the finding out of discrepancies in the publications in the students enrolment for the 12 Provinces, Addis Ababaand.

    Scouting: Training the “New Man” in Post-liberation Ethiopia Katrin Bromber1 ABSTRACTS Obgleich in Äthiopien Pfadfindereinheiten bereits 1919 entstanden, gewann die Bewegung erst nach dem Ende der italienischen Okkupation (1935–1941) an Bedeutung. Die Eingliede- rung der Pfadfinderorganisation in die Abteilung für Sporterziehung im Ministerium für Bildung und Kunst demonstriert seine Position als Teil des staatlichen Schulwesens. In diesem Zusam- menhang lassen sich Wandern und Camping als spezielle Praxen untersuchen, mit denen die Pfadfinder (nationales) Territorium körperlich erfahren und mit Techniken des Überlebens und Führens verbinden konnten. In diesem Zusammenhang organisierte Begegnungen der Scouts mit hochrangigen Vertretern von Militär, Polizei und Regierung zeigen, dass der „Neue Mensch“ wesentlich über eine demographisch verstandene Kategorie „Jugend“ hinausgeht. Although Boy Scouting emerged in Ethiopia as early as 1919, it was after the end of the Italian occupation (1935–41) that the movement gained momentum as an important part of youth training. The re-organization of the Boy Scouts under the Ministry of Education and Fine Arts as well as its coupling with Sports and Physical Education hints at the fact that Boy Scouting and, later, Girl Guiding were considered an integral part of education. The article looks at hiking and camping as a specific practice to link the youth to the (national) soil, to train survival and to instil leadership. It further shows that the “New Man” is not restricted to the demographic category of youth, but can include Ethiopian officials up to the highest ranks as well as local and foreign experts who re-organized the movement in Ethiopia. 1 This article is the result of an ongoing research project, “Progressive Citizen Bodies: Sports and Modernity in Ethiopia 1920–1974,” at Leibniz-Zentrum Moderner Orient, Berlin.

    Yeweinshet Beshah-Woured Citation: Beshah-Woured, Yeweinshet, 2010, Testimony. Interview conducted by Roman Herzog April 18th 2010, http://www.campifascisti.it/file/media/Testimony%20Yeweinshet%20Beshah-Woured.pdf Name: Yeweinshet Surname: Beshah-Woured Place and date of birth: Addis Abeba, 1931 Nationality: Ethiopian Gender: f Recording quality: (48 kHz., Stereo) Date of imprisonment: after Yekatit 12, 20th February 1937 Camps of imprisonment: Dejazmach Latibalu Residence, Addis Abeba, Ethiopia: 20 February 1937 Asmara, Eritrea: end of February/beginning of March 1937 Massawa, Eritrea: end of February/beginning of March 1937 Asinara (SS), Italy: March 1937 - 1938 Clinica italiana delle malattie tropicali, Rome (RM), Italy 1938 - 1938 Tivoli (RM), Italia fine 1938 - 1939 Addis Abeba, Ethiopia 1939 – April 5th 1941 Mayor topics and particularities of the interview (Summary) Yeweinshet Beshah-Woured was six years old when she has been deported to Italy together with her mother and a brother, after her father had been shot by the Italians. She is part of the almost 400 members of the old Ethiopian aristocracy, which after the attempted bombing of Graziani on February 19th 1937 has been deported to Italy. She remembers the episode from the eyes of a child and also in the reflection of her life after deportation, separating both levels of memory clearly. From the interview emerges that conditions of deportation and imprisonment have been quite roughly and hard for the majority of the Ethiopians, whereas few members of the high elite (Rases and their families), among them for luck Yeweinshets family, even if considered enemies by the Italian authorities, were confined but lived in comfortable conditions.
