FACULTY BROADCASTS
IN HONOR OF FOUNDING
(Continued from Page 1)
extension division, who came to the
university in 1907, stated that
there are now 3,000 students en
rolled in the extension division.
"Altho this method of education
lacks the advantages of personal
instruction and the contracts in
rubbing elbows with one's class
mates, it has the advantages that
each student studies and recites
the entire lesson and in so doing
acquires inestimably valuable
habits of independence."
The dean of the college of ag
riculture, W. W. Burr: "I hope
this sixty-third anniversary will
bring to the minds of many people
pleasant memories In connection
Wlin 11. At me college oi ngricui-
ture we have fewer students, but
no less determination to take ad
vantage of the educational oppor
tunities onerea.
Another addition to the faculty
in 1907 was J. E. LeRossignol,
dean of the college of business ad
ministration. His message ran:
We do not forget our Btudents of
former years even tho they are
now scattered far and wide; nor do
vou forget your alma mt.i.er as
evidenced by the fact that you are
listening in. Best wishes for your
success!"
Miss Manraret Fedde, bead or
the home economics division of the
college of agriculture, sent a toes
safe to all the 700 graduates of

the department who are now scat
tered all over the United States and
in foreign lands as well. She urged
alumnae to send their corrcet ad
dresses that their bulletin might ba
mailed to them next week.
Fling Speaks on Changes.
Dr. F. M. Fling, one of the mem
bers of the "old guard," spoke of
the many changes that had taken
place since the old grads were in
school. "We are now trying to
teach your children, as we tried to
teach you how to find life's values.
This is a good period to be alive in
in spite of all the storm and the
strife."
Dr. R. G. Clapp, for thirty years
connected with the university In
the capacity of physical education
director, gave a resume of athlet
ics especially in the earlier years
when there were no paid coaches
in athletes, when, but to the
coaching ability of Booth and the
outstanding caliber of the football
players, Nebraska beat Minnesota
6-0 in 1902.
Chairman of the department of
chemistry, Dr. F. W. Upson, who
was graduated in the class of 1907
and has been a member of the fac
ulty since 1913, is also dean of the
graduate college. He said "A
teacher's thoughts go back to his
students at a time like this. It is
only a combination of teachers and
students that makes a university;
a teacher's greatest satisfaction is
the success of his students."
Alumni Remain Loyal.
Dean Amanda Heppner, dean of
women, spent Charter Day last
year in Hong Kong, China, and her
remarks gave her impressions at
that time: "No matter where the
alumni are gathered in the many
corners of this globe, they are all
still loyal to their alma mater. All
is well with us. Wherever you are
and whatever you may be doing
greetings!"
Dr. J. O. Hertzler, chairman of
the sociology department, came to
the university in 1923. He said:
"It is our privilege and pleasure to
greet all of you. Those of you who
have spent hour after hour with
me discussing sociological prob
lems I greet especially warmly. I
would not take for these hours all
the money people have lost in
these past periods of strife."
Concluding the list of speakers,
Prof. H. C. Filley of the depart
ment of rural economics stated
that of t?;e 402 men who had grad
uated from the department during
the years 1920-1930, 129 are now
farmers; those in agricultural pur
suits other than farming number
21 percent; teachers are next with
17 percent of the number engaged
in such work. "To all of you," he
concluded, "greetings."

Manager Asks That Groups
Pay for Their Panels
Immediately.
Most of the payments on the
1932 annuals have been completed
to date, but there are still a few
that have not been paid, according
to Russell Mousel, business man
ager of the Cornhusker. Students
who purchased the books on the
Installment plan were to have
completed the Irst three pay
ments by Jan. 15, as stated in the
contracts.
The plan offered during the
sales drive last fall was for the
payment of one dollar at the time
the book was ordered, one dollar
on Dec. 1, and another dollar on
Jan. 15, the balance to be paid
when the book is delivered.
"It will not be long now, until
we will have to send in the order
for the 1932 books, and when we
do we are going to order only the
number of books that have been
paid for. The students who are be
hind in their payments had better
see that all payments are made up
within the next few days or we
will not be able to order a book
for them," he said.
Mousel also called attention to
the payments due from the sorori
ties and fraternities for their pan
els in the new annual. He pointed
out that no panels can be sent to
the engravers unless the money
for the engraving costs has been
paid. He requested that the sorori
ties and fraternities give their at
tention to this matter as soon as
possible, as the delay will neces
sarily slow up the production of
the book.

YOU COLLEGE BOYS
ARE
EXPENSIVE
LUXURIES!
OFTEN a serious strain on the pa
rental pocket-book not only
while college is in session but during
the summer. Here's an idea. It's liter
ally true this year that you can live in
Europe for less than you can at home.
Plenty of pensionsor snug little inns in
fascinating spots in Europe will put you
up with three meals a day for $40 or
$50 a month. With the present rat' of
exchange, your American dollar does
wonders.Whynotspendthesummcror
part of it abroad a nd actually spend less
than if you were at home? An excellent
opportunity tobrush upon yourFrench
or your English history, or what not.
Getting over and hack is not hard.
Just about $200 in Tourist Class via
White Star and Red Star Lines on
some of the world's finest ships. We'll
guarantee you a jolly time. Seems to
us that the summer in Europe might
be the means of a pleasant reduction
of the family budget and a glorious
time for you in the bargain.
If you agree why not try the family
out on it. If you want more informa
tion, write us for our Tourist Booklet
or see any authorized travel agent.
