STUDYING BY MAIL
PROVING POPULAR
Correspondence study during the
summer is proving a popular means ot
making credit in the university. The
extension division is receiving a heavy
registration for the mail work. The
correspondence study enables stu
dents to make credit in the university
without having to attend school at
Lincoln. Many teachers are finding
this a good means of summer study.

COMMENT ON NEBRASKA
EXHIBITION OF ART
The American Magazine of Art for
June contains a statement of the ex
hibition activities in the Nebraska art
association for the present season.
The Nebraska society each year ex
hibits somn of the best paintings from
the entire country. Many works of
Nebraska artists are shown in the
exhibition.
Probability that the two summer
sessions of 1022 will double the high
mark of 1.5S9 hit for the two sessions
last year is now ery evident. Until
laje Thursday the registrar's office
bad a high record of 1.SS1 already en
rolled for the first half of the summer
session.
This mark is very nearly double
that hit for the first six weeks last
year. The number enrolled for the
early sumer courses in 1921 was
only a little above the thousand mark.
If the registration holds out until tli
end of this week as is expected, thv
record mark of 2,000 summer session
ers will have been passed.
Increase in the number of students
attending summer school is due to the
general increase in registration in ail
schools in the country, according to
Chancellor Samuel Avery. Last win
ter almost every university experi
enced a marked upward turn in th?
number of students enrolled. . This
was credited to the fact that student?
who have not in the past had the time
nor the opportunity to continue their
education have found themselves in a
position favorable to the pursuit of
their studies. The so-called hard
times found many men and women
out of jobs but with a neat sum of
money saved up these persons have
found It advisable and convenient to
continue their university courses.
This group together with the fact that
students have a hard time findin?
work and so do not have the incentive
to leave school has caused the in
crease in the numbers felt in all
schools.
EMERSON CLINICS

The Emerson Institute clinics to be
held June 19 to August 17 Is proving

sponse made to the university exten

I BASEBALL
LEAGUE IS FORMED
Any Group of Summer Students May
Organize Team to Enter In
Competition.
The board of regents of the L'ni
versity of Nebraska has approved tha
request of Dean O. J. Ferguson of the
college of engineering for a full time
radio expert to care for the rapidly
Increasing work in that field. For
some time the university has been
broadcasting market and weather re
ports by both telephone and tele
graph. This work has required the
part-time services of two students,
II. E. Hein, now graduated, and B. E.
Ellsworth, who has charge this sum
mer.. Classes in radio have been taught
as an elective in the engineering col
lege by Dean Ferguson. This vork
will rrobably be turned over to the
radio expert to be employed.
Due to the recent activities in radio,
inquiries have been pouring in from
not only Nebraska but from neighbor
ing states and a large part of the
work of the radio man will be answer
ing questions regarding hookups, what
instruments are used and how, or
answering politely worded requests by
equally gentle statements to the eifect
that though the university sends out
radio reports, it cannot furnish blanks
on which to copy them.
New and larger quarters are to b
partitioned off elsewhere to replace
the old crowded space on the second
floor of E. E. building in accordance
with the rapidly growing importance
of the work.
A twilight baseball league has been
formed at the University of Ne
braska. Six teams have already been
entered in the competition and a ca'.l
has been issued for as many more
teams to enter as can be formed from
groups of summer students. Applica
tions for teams to be entered in tho
twilight league should be filed at the
athletic office before next Tuesday
evening.
Coach Owen Frank will have charge
of the twilight league. He will super
vise and criticise all games and play
ers entered in the league will not only
receive good baseball practice but will
be given excellent coaching.
An attempt will be made to have
each person entered in the league
take part in two or three games each
week. At least one team is to be
entered from each of the coaching
classes, baseball, football, basketball
and track. Any group may organize
a team and enter it in the competition
by filing a list of from twelve to four
teen players and an assurance that it
will play the games necessary at the
athletic office. Forms for filing will
be provided.
There are three fields open for the
twilight league. Two of them are on
the drill grounds and the other is on
the athletic field.
