Today is pre-election day on the
collage of ajriculture campus.
Where quiet reigned over the scene
last Wednesday prior to the an
nual spring election, the opposite
is true this week. The Thursday
election is a "new deal" since the
last week's results were thiown
overboaid.
Petitions for candidates whose
names will appear on the ballot
were filed late Tuesday evening.
All three factions -Barbs, Farm
House and AlDha Gamma Rho
have put the men in the field again
in what will be tne tmai election
of the year.
Overthrowing: of last week's re
sults came after Farm House and
the Barbs protested the results
and demanded a new deal. They
ehare-ed fraud in the election and
were sustained by both the Ag
executive board and the faculty
election committee. Both boards
voted to hold the new contest.
Since all of the results were
thrown out. balloting: for student
council representatives from the
college will take place again since
the student council is expected to
ratify the decision tonight.
As in the other election. Farm
House and the Barbs are aligned
together against Alpha uamma
Rho in Thursday's contests. The
other faction, Alpha Gamma Rho
has tiled petitions tno ror candi
dates for most offices. Names of
those to be voted upon will appear

regular teaching staff of the uni
versity to offer courses in special
ized fields or to supplement the
regular work by special lecturers
at the summer session to be held
June 9 to July 21. According to

registrar and R. D. Moritz director
of educational service registration
will be held Friday, June 9 from
8 to 12 and 2 to 5 and Saturday,
June 10, from 8 to 12, in the
Coliseum.
Two sessions will be held a
long session from June 9 until
August 4, and a short session from
June 9 to July 21. Major em
phasis is to be placed on the long
session, consequently a more ex
tensive program, particularly in
academic and graduate courses, is
offered during this session. The
two sessions will run concun ently.
The summer session offers a
program of recreation and social
activities. A definite and com
prehensive social program is being

sion students.
Students will be permitted to
participate in social activities in
cluding parties, picnics, sports,
and games. Other forms of group
activity and competition are being
offered. The interest displayed
by the students last summer has
given the management sufficient
confidence to justify a program of
social activity for recreation of
summer school students, according
to the bulletin. The program will
be sponsored by Professor Lantz
with the assistance of a commit
tee selected from summer school
students. Announcements will be

university appropriations, al
though no definite announcement
has been made to date.
Scholarships will include only
tuition fees; non-resident fees
must be paid by the student. As
a rule, the awards are granted for
one semester only, although they
may be extended to one year upor

of the faculty committee.
