i IANTZ GIVES PLANS
ACTIVITY OF SESSION
Parties, Picnics, Sports
In Store for Summer
School Students.
Student Executive Group
.To Be Selected for
Direction.
Following the success with
which last year's summer session
recreation program was met, a
new and more elaborate plan of
student parties and picnics U to be
inaugurated this summer, accord
ing to Prof. K. W. Lantx, faculty
member in charge of recreation.
"Upon the suggestion of Direc
tor Moritx we are going to appoint
a student executive committee
some time during the current
week," Professor Lantx reported.
-It will be the first time that sack
a method has been followed during
a summer session and we hope
that thru it we will be able to pro
vide better recreational activities
than ever before."
Perhaps a Party Friday.
If present plans develop an all
university party will p?.bably be
held Friday evening. Professor
L a ntz declared. Arrangements
have not as yet been made but
plans are being considered and
things are awaiting the appoint
ment of the student executive
committee which will be made
within the next day or two.
In the past,- with the possible
exception of last summer there
has been more or less of a ten
dency to slight the social program
of summer students, in Professor
Lantz's opinion. When a number
of student parties, two or three
picnics, and some tourney compe
titions turned out so successfully a
year ago this time it was decided t
that definite -d progressive at-
tempts to provide more student 1
recreation would be made this
year. j
Selection of the summer school j
student committee will be made by
Professor Laritx and this group
will then draw up a concrete pro
gram of regularly organised par
ties, picnics, sports and games in
which all summer students will be
invited and urged to participate.
Although a great deal depends
upon the decisions of the student
executive committee it is quite
probable that there will be at least
one organised party each week. In
addition there will probably be
three or four picnics, one or two
of them for men, one for women,
and one or two for mixed groups.
Last year's parties were held in
Grant Memorial hall and this
building will probably be used
again for this year's party affairs.

Advantage Offered
At Summer Senniun
The summer session of the
University of Nebraska is of
commanding interest to approx
imately 2.800 students who are
registering for a six or nine
weeks' term beginning today.
Under our present arrange
ment, most chairmen of depart
ments and leading professors m
the departments are available
for instruction during the sum
mer. A number of attractive
lecturers frorn-reading universi
ties will add strength to sum
mer school courses.
The summer session draws
many types of students. Teach
ers from all portions of the
state come stack to perfect
themselves in, some major sub
ject. Many with bachelor's de
grees come for graduate study.
Several hundred students unable
to carry a full load of cbu.
work during the regular school
year attend to expedite securing
their degrees.
The splendid library and sci
ence laboratory facilities which
the summer instruction affords
make summer instruction espe
cially attractive.

Students Should Read Nebraskan
for Announcements, Says Moritz
To Summer Sessisw
Students:
All official announce
ments of importance to the
student body will be printed
in The Summer Nebraskan,
official summer session
newspaper. It will serve
not only as a news con
veyor but also as a general
university bulletin. S t u
dents will be held responsi
ble for all such announce
ments. ,
We believe that The Ne
braskan has a real oppor
tunity for service and we
urge students and mem
bers of the faculty to avail
themselves of this service
and the opportunity it af
fords for making the vari
ous university activities an
integral part of the sum
mer session.

SUMMER FROSH
GET HEAD START
High school graduates of this
spring have several things to be
thankful for if they are attending
ue current session of summer
school, ia the opinion of R. D.
saor-cr., director of the summer
session.
"The freshman starting- ia th?
fall is usually given little attention
or consideration during registra
tion because of the rush, but their
summer student does not have to
worry about this," be pointed out
"A student baa a further advan
tage during the summer because
then he may receive more helpful
advice since his advisor is not sol
busy and is consequently able to
take a more personal interest in
him." i
PROF. R. O. MORITZ.

WOMEN'S RI LES
ISSLED BY DEAN
AMANDA HEPPNER
Definite house rules will be in
force for women students during
the summer session, according to
Miss Amanda Heppner. dean of
women, who is giving a copy of
those rules to each girl who sees
her at Ellen Smith hall. There
are slight variations in these rules
from those in force during the
regular school year.
In the first place the summer
rules have no special restrictions
for freshman and sophomore stu
dents. Another difference is in
the time dement. During the reg
ular sihoul year 10.30 is the tinn
ing hour for week sights for up
perclassmen (freshmen must be in
at 8 o'clock) and 12:30 for Fri
day and Saturday. For the sum
mer session 11:00 is the closing
hour on we;k nights while 12:00
is the limit on Friday and Satur
day. The rules as given out by Miss
Heppner follow:
1. The residence of men and
women in the same lodging house
is not approved and is not per
mitted unless the circumstances
are unusual. In this case permis
sion must be granted by the dean
of women.
2. A lady, rooming students
(women), is expected to provide
for their use until 11 o'clock, Sun
day, Monday, Tuesday. Wednes
day and Thursday evening, a re
ception room on the fwst floor,
properly lighted. An rules refer-

Approximately 2,800 graduate
and undergraduate students are
expected to enroll today for the
thirty-seventh annual summer ses
sion at The University of Nebraska.

of new courses have been added
which are expected to draw large

tical nature.

arrangement whereby students
may lake courses in both the six
and nine-week sessions, complet
ing the work in certain nine-week
classes by extension if desired. Ad
ditional courses have been included

of national standing in their own

"These superintendents who have
been secured for the summer ses
sion are able to make a real cor -tribution
owing to the fact that
they come with the practical ex
perience of school men trained in
the field in school administration
and supervision," stated R. D. Mor
