Greetings
The faculty and students
welcome again the beginning
of a new school year, and the
eagerness and enthusiasm with
which everyone goes about his
job is nottd everywhere.
Familiar faces on every corner
and getting acquainted with
new ones makes the beginning
of the year a most pelasant
occasion.
On the agricultural campus,
many freshman, upper class
men and faculty members are
already acquainted through
contact in 4-II clubs, Future
Farmers, Youth clubs, and
other agricull iiral activities.
Opportunities in agriculture
and home economics have al
ways been good and at present
are better than ever. Going to
college is hard work but it is
a pleasure. In behalf of the
faculty of the college of Agri
culture, I bid you welcome
and I wish for you a profit
able and happy school year.

Prospects for a record break
ing enrollment at Ag are boom
ing with the total of new en
rollees nearing 300. With regis
tration approximately two-thirds
complete, an unofficial check
showed that 231 students had
been processed.
Dr. C. C. Wiggans, chairman of
the committee, reported that the
number of students registering for
the first time at the Ag college
was considerably over that of
previous years. "If we should
register 300 or more new stu
dents," said Dr. Wiggans, "It in
quite likely that we will have a
record enrollment."
The 1948 registration is con
spicious by the absence of Dean
W. W. Burr, who has retired
after thirty years as Dean of Ag
college. Dean Burr's retirement
will not become official until Oct.
1. But he has already left Lincoln
on business.

Dr. F. D. Keim, chairman of the
department of agronomy. Dr.
Keim will assume the duties of
the office until the new dean
takes over Oct. 1. Trof. M. L.
Baker is serving as Director of
the Experiment Station.
Dr. V. W. Lambert, former
head of the Agricultural Re
search Administration in Wash
ington will take over as dean and
director of the Ag college Oct. 1.
A well-known livestock expert,

ceived his B.Sc. from the agricul
tural college in 1921.
Burr To Germany
At the request of the American
government, Dean Burr departed
for Germany by plane on Sept.
14. He will go to Berlin and
