Duties Formerly Performed in Home
Now Shifted to School Says Matzen
Training Required to Meet
Demands Outlined in
Radio Talk.
Departure from the old social
system in which the family was a
unit within itself and afforded the
complete training for the child, the
effect of this change in increas
ing the demands on the school sys
tem and the requirements of ad
ministrative leadership which are
necessary if the schools are prop
erly to handle these new duties
was the subject of a radio talk
given on the University of Nebras
ka broadcast period by Dr. John
N. Matzen of the department of
school administration over station
KFAB Thursday morning.
The farm home of yesterday, he
pointed out, was both an economic
unit and a school, providing a self
sufficient living for the family and
training the child for life. The lit
tle country school, attended for a
few months in the winter when
there was no work to do, taught
them the three R's and little else.
Little effort was made to give any
training in the fundamentals of
citiizenship. This they acquired in
the home. Their trade instruction
and ethical training was learned
SPORTS PROGRAM STARTS
Ball Games Attrack Both

Tournaments.
The summer sports program got
under way Tuesday night this
week when both men and women
reported out for first playground
baseball practice on the fields
south of Teachers college and east
of Social Sciences, respectively.
Games have been played every
night since then, about twenty
women and thirty men taking
part. Tuesday night the university
men defeated high schools boys en
rolled in the All-State music
courses by an unrecorded score.
Women's games have been in the
nature of "choose up" contests.
Warren Marsh, Archer, is in
charge of the men's sports pro
gram for the summer and plans
organization of several rooming
house teams to play a tournament
sometime before the session ends.
Marsh will also manage a golf
tournament, details of which will
be announced later, and is in
charge of horseshoe equipement.
Stakes for this latter spcrt have
been set up just south of Teachers
college.
Helen Huston, Osceola, member
of the summer session student
executive committee, is in charge
of the summer sports program
for women.

"The use of power machinery,"
he continued, "has brought about
a marked change in the home of

produces all the food, clothing and
shelter needed. The economic ne
cessities, luxuries of life, amuse

by organizations that are not only
nationwide but world wide in
