The work offered, according to the director of the summer session, is designed to offer not only a schol arly program of professional and academic courses but one suffici ently flexible to meet the needs of all types of students including the teachers, or those preparing to teach, school supervisors and ad ministrations, college students who desire to make up deficiencies or to continue their regular collegiate study, students who must meet prerequisites for admission to pro fessional schools, or anyone desir- ing to pursue studies for their cultural vocational values. The university o.'ficinls place major emphasis on the nine weeks session. Consequently a more ex tensive program, particularly in academic and graduate courses, is offered during the long session. Smith-Hughes agriculture, de- , signed to meet the needs of those now engaged in teaching this course, will be given for graduate credit during this session. Shorter sessions of one and two weeks each are offered for rural teach- t ers, social case workers, school house custodians, and members of Parent-Teachers associations. Arrangements have been made with the various departments of fering extension courses whereby a student will be permitted during the six weeks session to carry the courses which may be completed after the close of the six weeks session thru the extension division. "The offerings in the graduate college are more extensive than in former, years and the nine weeks summer session offers unusual op portunities in both the professional colleges and the liberal arts col lege for students to pursue their graduate work," Prof. Moritz de clared.

Mortiz, director, announced yesterday. This course will offer excellent advantages for the study of super vision and practical phases of problems in secondary education," he declared.

Opponents of the closed night request included Adviser Lantz who did not favor any policy of the council for indiscriminately ordering closed nights to any group which requests that it be done.

NEWMuTMENT IS Staff Urges Purchasers Get Books as Soon As Possible. to With a new allotment of 1931 Cornhuskers coming in from the printers, the Cornhusker office opened at 1 o'clock yesterday to fulfill the order of a great many students who are apparently very anxious to receive their new year books. Students filed into the office, ac cording to Ed Edmonds, business manager, nearly as fast as the day before when the business staff is sued the annuals at the rate of better than two per minute be tween the hours of 8 .",nd 5. Books Go Rapidly. The rapid rate at which the Cornhuskers are going out is grati fying to the business staff which has encouraged the students to get their books as soon as possible in an effort to clean up the 1931 orders. Those students who have pur chased their 1931 student publica tions on the three pay installment plan must submit the remaining money due when they present their receipts for getting their books. Carrying out the tradition insti tuted many yeais ago. Chancellor Burnett yesterday sent out 125 1931 Cornhuskers to that many high schools in the state. This is done to give prospective university students a brief, yet complete view of the accomplishments of uni versity students in all its phases. There are several new features in the 1931 Cornhusker which have come in for great approval and much favorable comment. Out standing among the innovations is the theme, "one for all all for one." which runs throughout the hook and ciiaraclenzes each sec tion. In carrying out the theme there is the portrayal in various forms the three musketeers in comparison to student.- of the uni versity. Group Section Good. The fraternity and sorority sec tions have come in for a construc tive change which has drawn from the many students and faculty members who have seen the new book exclamations of approval and satisfaction. The rearrangement of the pictures which now run from top to bottom of the page make possible much larger pictures. The names of the towns from which each Greek member comes is also included in the new book. The final change is that the hu mor section excludes personalities. Also the feature section is given more copy space. To this section twenty-four pages with three full page pictorial scenes are allotted. In the colors of black and gold, upon which are placed the same characters student and musketeer which fulfill the theme the cover is a very striking one. It is made of iml'.ation leather. In chronological order the "umn.li of events" during the school year Is recorded in the pic torial section. It begins with foot ball rallies and ends with out standing campus events of the year. The book consists of individual pictures of the Juniors and seniors, both social and professional fra ternities and sororities, religious and business organizations, various councils, faculty, publication staffs, R. O. T. C. companies and activities, and all other features that "-lve taken a prominent and regular part in record of students, activities and organizations.

High school graduates who be gin tneir university work during summer school will have certain distinct advantages over those who wait until fall, R. D. Mortiz, direc tor of the summer session, said yesterday. The freshman starting: in the fall is usually given little at tention or consideration during registration because of the rush but the summer student does not have to worry with this. A student may receive more helpful advice during' summer re gistration because the advisor la not so busy. He will usually take a more personal interest In the student at this time than in the fall. If the incoming student is defi cient in any subjects be can mike these up in summer school and be . ' all rAdy to start the fall term with a cleaj slate. By attending sum mer sessions he stuck at may also be graduated sooner and may possibly receive his degree a full year sooner din otiierwise. VISITING EACK SUMMER SCHOOL
