Slight Increase
Noted in Summer
School Students
Final figures given out Wed
nosilnv afternoon from the office
of the registrar indicate summer
school attendance this year to
taled 2,665 an increase of fifty
one over last year when 2,614
students were enrolled.
This year's registration In
cluded 460 new students which is
a remarkably high number. Many
of these were taking their first
college work while a number came
here from other institutions, some
to pursue undergraduate courses
end others to do advanced work.
Marked is the increased enrol
ment in the graduate college this
year. In 1929 542 students were
doing graduate work while this
year 583 were registered.
Lantz Says Play
Program Certain
In 1931 Session
A comDrehensive recreational
program for summer school stu
dents next vear is assured, accord
ing to Prof. FL W. Lanta who this
summer has been in charge of tne
vacation school play arrange
ments. Nomine- at all definite can be
ascertained until after the board
of regents meets next winter to
consider Diana for the 1931 sum
mer school, but a thoroughgoing
program is promised.
Summer school students this
year voted almost unanimously for
an extra lee to pay ior recrea
tional equipment and to provide
for dances and picnics. In the win
ter, students who expect to attend
summer school next season will
have an opportunity to express
their ideas on the matter.
This expression, Professor Lantz
pointed out, will not necessarily
denote what the policy of the sum
mer session next year will be, but
it will furnish some basis for the
recommendations Director R. D.
Morita will make to the board of
regents.
But even if funds are lacking.
dances, picnics, mixers, swimming
meets, tennis tournaments, horse
shoe nitchins- contests, erolf tour
naments and other general sports
events will be providea, troiessor
Lantz declared.

LIT
DENIES STATEMENTS
Administrative Official Says
Policy Always Liberal
And Tolerant.
Opposes Censorship; Due to
Misunderstanding, Says
Cliff Sandahl.
Vigorous denial of ever having
made the remarks credited to him
in the lead story of last Tuesday's
Nebrakaii headlined. "Dally Ne
braskon Staff May Have Faculty
rvs' was made by Dean of
Student Affairs T. J. Thompson
the afternoon following publica
tion. , , ,
rwnn ThomDson in his denial
was corroborated by a statement
from Prof. Cayle c. warner. m
rector of the school of journalism,
nd hv a letter from Gene'S. Robb,
editor of The P.Hy Nor,r.k.n Inst
semester. The dean insists ne nas
alway? maintained a liberal atti
tude in the matter of student pub
lications and strongly disapproves
of faculty censorship.

Cliff F. Sandahl. acting editor
of The Summer Nebraskan for
the seven issues culminating in
last Tuesday's edition, declares
that the storv was nrinted in good
faith and attributes the mixup to
a misunderstanding. Starr woraers
stand bv him in declaring the
story, written by Sandahl, was re
ported as they understood Dean
Thompson.
Jack Erickson, a reporter, says
h wis in The Nebraskan office
during the discussion between the
dean and Sandahl three weeks ago
and heard the conversation on
which the storv was based. In an
interview with Dean Thompson
Tuesday, however, tne aean ciaims
F.rirkson admitted hearing him
sav he honed the time would never
come whan any censorship would
be needed on The JNeorasitan.
.Tn Dentins' oolvmniat. said that
part of the story came from an
informal conversation he had with
thA rtpnn some davs asro. Dean
Thompson emphatically d e n ies
ever having made the statements
printed as quotations, either in
public or in private at any ume.
The absurdity of his purported
statement, the dean said, is re
vealed by the fact that he Is not
a member of the student ruDiica
rion hoard at this time and has ab-
fiolutelv nothimr to sav about the
conduct of publications in the uni
versity.

Six-Mine Week Plan
I'lcane M or its; to
lie Same Mext Year
Complete satisfaction with
the si nine weeks term plan of
summer school was expressed
Wednesday by Prof. R. D. Mor.
IU, director of the tummer tct
Ion.
"I fttl." M taW, -that the
combination of tlx and nine
week terms hat made It pot
tlble for ut to render a valuable
service to all atudentt.
"We ttretted the nine wtekt
term and the great majority of
ttudentt attended the long tet
ion. But we recognized that
there would be many unable to
tay In school that long to ar
ranged a number of tlx week
courtea for them.
"The new plan In operation
the first time thit year meat
ured up to our expectation. In
all probability there will be no
change In the plan next year.
The aix-nlne weekt arangement
served and tatitfied everyone."
Former Students
Have to Sept. 3
To Remit Tuition
From the office of the finance
secretary Aug. 15 will go notices
of tuition fees to all former stu
dents of the uriversity who have
registered for the winter term.
They will be given until Sept.
3 to remit the fees. After that
time they must pay a late fee of
$3. If registrants for the winter
term do not receive notice of their
fees by Aug. 18, the finance office
urges that It be notified.
Absence from home or failure
to receive notice of fees will not
be a valid excuse, according to
L. E. Gunierson. Any fees not
paid by Sept. 3 will be advanced
13.
Former students will complete
their registration Tuesday and
W1nortav Sent. 16 and 17 bv fol
lowing the instructions given on
the notice or fees.
Jobs Are Scarce;
Students Coming
To Uni Need $300
Until a student has S300 or pre
arranged means of securing that
amount, be had best postpone bis
university education.
That is the opinion of and ad
vice given by T. J. Thompson, dean
of student affairs, in whose office
the university employment bureau
in charge of E. C. Henthorne is lo
cated. His suggestion is offered to
vounr men and women planning
on attending the University of Ne
braska this rail. Tne 3W in tangi
ble resources or part time work se
cured before trekkin? to Lincoln
with the expectations of becoming
a university stuaent is necessary
to complete one semester's work,
the dean says.
Unemployment in Lincoln this
summer is so acute tnac in tne tan
no exhaustive survey of possible
positions for students will be
made. The university feels that
when there are many Lincoln citi
zens with families are out of work
they must be cared for before the
students.
A brief survey will be made by
Mr. Henthorne and any positions
open to students will be listed at
the bureau but no campaign will
be carried on to get a large num
ber of places because of the dis
tressing local unemployment situa
tion. RURAL ECONOMISTS
DETERMINE COST OF
RAISING CORN CROP
Publications on the cost of pro
ducing corn in five Nebraska
counties are ready for distribution
at the rural economics office at the
agricultural college. One on the
cost of operating farm tractors

WATER MAIN AT AG
COLLEGE IS BROKEN
Because of a break in the water-
mains at the agricultural col
lege arrangements are being made
for a new well. The city of Lin
coln, despite its water shortage, is
supplying the state farm with wa
ter until tb.3 new well is dug.
